you wanna know what’s so funny is that we’re all like “omg Essek could NOT shut up about Caleb 🥺💕” but like. he absolutely can.
the only times Essek brought up Caleb unprompted/without relevance to the discussion at hand were gesundheit and nighttime sendings lol. of the four uses of the phrase “my partner,” one is an off-handed mention as part of a clarification (“I have not been following the Assembly’s threads; that was more my partner’s purview.”) and the last three all happen in the span of four minutes before Essek exits the episode.
the problem is that within those last four minutes, Essek hit us with
1) showing off a zemnian phrase he learned from Caleb,
2) “he is kind. and he is smart. and he is so strong,” said with such conviction and pride and love that I don’t think I’ll ever recover, and
3) leaving the crafting party to chat with Caleb before bed
which was just. a lot. it was so much and it was so good. so much concentrated shadowgast in those four minutes
this whole ship is built on layered conversations and implications and skirting the obvious (with the exception of the last two minutes of m9 reunited) so to give us four whole minutes of Essek boasting about Caleb, praising Caleb, wanting to go talk to Caleb was particularly potent
thank you Matt Mercer for my life 💕

Been brainroting about Nine and Kit and how they circle back and show the two ugly extremes of Tails while also not being him at all and I'm actually maybe going insane but hear me out!!
Thimbking about how Nine is so desperately trying to prove that he is his own person and distances himself from Tails with everything in his power while looking like and, in certain instances, acting near identical to the other. And then Kit, who looks and acts absolutely nothing like the fox he was meant to replace (girls' not even the same type of fox!!!) while literally being programmed to only follow orders and have no thoughts of his own besides that he's meant to take someone else's place
The meme I already made about Nine being angry as a default response to any possible conflict while Kit turns into a crying and unstable emotional mess[affectionate]
Something something if I'm reading too much into this don't tell me but both Kit and Nine representing the need for Tails to have at least one dependable person for him to fall back on and Nine being the show that a lack of it turned him bitter and abrasive, while Kit is yet again the opposite extreme by having his whole personality and wants revolve around someone else (yet he expresses his distrust and hate towards everyone but that person, so perhaps they're not so different after all)
And how they should absolutely hold hands and kibth /j
