If I was a better writer, I would write the most in-depth finale for Grace's character arc where she experiences grief and redemption and facing her past and Hazel and-

When The Cat was like "I can tell you what's wrong with Grace," she fully would have gone on a rant about the evils of communism if Simon hadn't stopped her. Like. Capitalism queen was like "she has no respect for personal property" and although that's true, it's a bit to the side of Grace's actual issues, and the perfect transition into Economy Discussion! The Cat just wanted to bitch about how capitalism is the only good economic system because otherwise you get people like Amelia and Grace who think they own everything, and Simon fully knew this was coming, and stopped her before she could go there.

thinkin about how so far, none of the infinity train protags have had a normal train journey.
tulip stopped amelia and got one-one back to being the conductor, essentially saving a huge number of passengers from amelia's lack of guidance. remember how scared tulip was when she first got on? how she thought she was going to die, didn't understand what the number was for? but she fixed that, or rather, she helped one-one fix that., effectively "reforming" the train for the better, if you will.
jesse of course met lake, who the train refuses to acknlodge even really exists but is very obviously there. he's presumably the first person to ever get back on the train. he got woken up in the number car, a place most passengers don't even know exists. he's probably also the first or maybe one of a rare few people who ever had an irrational number.
grace and simon have some of the highest numbers, and probably hold the record for the longest time spent on the train. obviously we know your number isn't supposed to go up, yet that's their goal. we also know you're not supposed to start a cult. you're not supposed to get eaten by a gohm. plus, we never get to see an exit throughout book 3.
ryan and min got on the train together. shared a pod, shared a number. they got the jumpsuit and boots. got to experience first-hand amelia in the midst of her usurping one-one. ryan reach 0 twice (of course, so did jesse). and then ryan and min-gi finally exited the train together.
we really only know how the train is supposed to work because we know how it's not.

Entering the next car full of trees and pinecone camp counselors, Grace tries to calm Hazel down following her sudden transformation and make sure Simon doesn't find out, not knowing what happened to Tuba in the last episode. “The Campfire Car” premiered on this day, 3 Years Ago.

Idea: Crossover/AU where Chloe Bourgeois gets on the Infinity Train and joins the Apex
Idk how niche this is, but I just had a thought once a little bit of my old and slightly older brainrots came back to haunt me: Chloe Bourgeois and Infinity Train, more specifically book 3. Since I have been grasping at creative straws for 2 months, here are a few bullet points/ideas that I may work with later. Big maybe, this newfound motivation might die tomorrow lol. Either way, hope you few people who find this interesting enjoy!
Also mlb season 5 spoilers I think? I dunno I just kind of read episode summaries now I have no idea what season we're on.
Imagine if at 15, Chloe Bourgeois unknowingly escapes to the train right before she was forced to live with her mother, but instead of going on a journey of self discovery, she has the 'fortune' in bumping into the Apex instead.
(oh also while all of this is very found family like, I acknowledge that under the surface these are still three flawed extremely traumatized kids feeding into each others problems and creating/building a cult that kills denizens/destroys cars, like that's all still happening in the background of this LMAO)
When the crying teenager is brought into the mall by the few younger members of the group, it's more of the same for Grace and Simon, and the normal Apex welcomes begin.
Nobody really realizes or cares who Chloe is, due to their ages when boarding the train. It would bother her on a normal day, but given everything that has happened prior to boarding, it kind of sends her spiraling into more crying/anger.
While Simon is in no mood for it, Grace goes into full damage control mode, comforting and leaving her alone in one of the nicer areas of the mall car so she can fully calm down.
Simon is annoyed by it, but Grace plays it off as playing the long game so to speak in order to get Chloe to join. It's a half truth, as she feels empathy for Chloe after hearing a small bit of the events leading to the train picking her up. (mainly that someone left her, bringing up memories of Grace's first time meeting Simon)
Speaking of empathy, this is dialed up to an eleven when Grace gets to know her better, and finds out about her kind of similar living situation (neglectful parents) and her history of friends/conflict at school (she doesn't really go into the whole superhero thing because she feels like it would take attention off her. Besides, they don't seem to know or care much about what's going on outside anyway)
Now friends, Grace decides to take Chloe to her first car raid with just her and Simon. Chloe goes along with it to both get her anger out on something and impress her new friend. I'd expect they'd hit an 'easy' car first, like the cube car from Book 2.
Simon is now annoyed and jealous now that Grace is giving more of her attention to someone else, but after the car is thoroughly destroyed Chloe gives more information on how she got onto the train. As soon as she mentions being essentially abandoned and replaced by her father, he empathizes with her immediately and actually gets pissed off for her as well (Brought to you by Samantha fueled abandonment issues). They bond over the trash talking of her dad, and they become official friends soon after.
With Chloe fully on their side (and their friendship growing fast), they finally decide to tell her about what the Apex is all about. Full theatrics, conductor and everything.
Knowing the crazy stuff that happened in Paris on a daily basis (which is only reaffirmed by the train), she doesn't doubt the existence of the Conductor, but has reservations about his godlike status among the group ("Are you serious? That thing is probably just a glorified sentimonster!"). However, she keeps these to herself, as she deep down, she doesn't want them to abandon her.
What she lacks in 'belief', she makes up for in fierce loyalty. The only thing Chloe has to her name now is her found family The Apex, and she's not just gonna lose that, no matter how many nulls have to pay. Besides, just because she doesn't believe in the Conductor's power, doesn't mean that she isn't greatly invested in beating the train...
(Oh also, a little bonus. Depending on if the headcanon/theory is true, I'd imagine Simon and Chloe would speak to each other in French on occasion to mess with Grace.)

Larry Fic Rec Masterpost
My Absolute Favourite Fanfictions Of All Time!!!
like these are better than most books I’ve read
1. Landslide (143k) by aimmyarrowshigh, spibsy (lucy_and_ramona)
The year is 1976. In November, Jimmy Carter will take control of the White House. Americans are meeting Laverne & Shirley at their apartment in Milwaukee. Hotel California diverges from the reign of Kool & the Gang. And the FBI is still reeling from the repercussions of Watergate, the tragedy at Wounded Knee, Operation Family Secrets, and the strategic terrors of the anti-cult movement.
That's what Special Agent Harry Styles has been told is the basis of his mission to an abandoned farmhouse in rural New Hampshire.
With his hair grown out long and his shirt untucked, he's going undercover to do reconnaissance on suspected cult leader Louis Tomlinson, who has led a group of people out into the middle of nowhere, leaving no record of the life he'd had before. All Harry knows is what the agency gave him: Tomlinson's name, and instructions to figure out what he's doing with the eleven people he brought with him.
In the year that Harry spends undercover and under Louis Tomlinson's wing, he learns more than he ever expected.
2. Wild and Unruly (124k) by 100percentsassy, gloria_andrews
Harry is a cowboy sitting on the biggest oil reservoir in Wyoming, and Louis is the paralegal assigned to pressure him into selling his land.
3. Love Is A Rebellious Bird (135k) by 100percentsassy, gloria_andrews
AU in which the boys still make music. Louis is the concertmaster of the London Symphony Orchestra, Harry is the New! and Exciting! interim conductor/ex-cello prodigy who "has made Mozart cool again" according to Esquire Magazine (Louis hates him immediately, which is definitely why he internet stalked him in his dark bedroom late at night that one time), and Niall is the best. Zayn and Liam are around too.
Don't hum Bolero.

NOSTALGIAMARE ENTRY 11
NAME: THOMAS AND THE MAGIC RAILROAD
COMPANY/FRANCHISE: DESTINATION FILMS
GULLANE PICTURES
THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE
CATEGORY: MOVIE (ANIMATED/THEATRICAL)
YEAR: 2000
DESCRIPTION: Thomas The Tank Engine’s first ever movie, based on the Railway Series books by Wilbert Awdry, as well as taking inspiration from the North American television series based on Thomas “Shining Time Station”. The Island Of Sodor as well as Shining Time Station is in danger after the return of Diesel 10, and his quest to destroy all of the gold dust connecting both worlds. The only engine who is the source of it, Lady is inactive. But now Thomas, Mr Conductor and all their friends must work together and believe in magic to get the gold dust back and stop Diesel 10.
MOD THOUGHTS
1: Don’t get me wrong the voice actors did a pretty good job in the movie but WE COULD’VE GOTTEN MICHAEL ANGELIS AND KEITH SCOTT-
Tumblr media
2: I would like to point out this movie is the reason why Britt Allcroft (The director) left the series. The movie was that shit in everyone’s eyes, even with it’s cult following.
3: This movie’s production history may not be NEARLY as mind-boggling as movies of Thief and The Cobbler’s levels but it was certainly a crazy one nonetheless.
