this morning im meditating on just how truly funny it is that alex went with making bill the obsessed one.

like ford was dedicated, he worshipped bill, but ford's devotion made sense. there was a logic and rationality to it and it had boundaries that were consistent and he followed. he worshipped bill for his knowledge and power, loved him for what they had in common and how they got along, left him when he learned of bill's true nature and intentions, and took it upon himself to make up for his mistake by turning that dedication from serving bill to killing bill. this is relatable and understandable.

but making your series main villain, someone immortal and with godlike powers and abilities and influence doggedly obsessed with just some nerd is like. really funny. girl go fuck a black hole, take a neutron star out for dinner, text back one of the eldritch gods on the edge of time. ford collects moths.

i honestly think griffin was so funny for introducing the roles of the seven birds (the twins, the lover, the protector, the lonely journalkeeper, the peacemaker, and the wordless one) and then making the next two arcs be about a mysterious loner whose journal they have to track down and just straight up another pair of twins

alternate birds

The Twins: Lydia & Edward

The Lover: Sloan

The Protector: Roswell

The Peacemaker: Hurley

The Lonely Journal Keeper: Sheriff Isaac

The Wordless One: The Voidfish

absolutely thrilled to discover ppl in the notes like "yeah i was a taz balance theorizer at the time and this totally threw me off" bc i always suspected that was the case but never had any confirmation. sometimes balance foreshadowing is heartbreaking and sobering and beautiful and sometimes it is "oh you motherfucker"
