You know, in hindsight, it IS a weird episode to make a two-parter from.

please don't be sorry! this genuinely fills me with joy, and these comments have been so much fun. well, the ones i can participate in, haha.

JOIN ME IN FEELING UNPREPARED

WHAT NO WAY. I know it isn't well-regarded, but I really do love a lot of those episodes. Once I'm done with B5, I'll have to go back (on my own) and see which ones he wrote. (Don't want to Google it now and accidentally stumble on a spoiler.)

i kinda love that the conversation is STILL going!

okay, because i'm a huge Twilight Zone fan, now i can't ignore how even the dialogue Morden speaks fits super well into the aesthetic of The Twilight Zone. So much of that project was about examining humanity through stories that seemed deceptively simple at first.

THIS IS BLOWING MY MIND

it figures that i'm now reading the comments regularly except i literally can't LMAO

Which is fair! I don't think we should avoid the words or the descriptions at all, and you can also find those words I chose to be uncomfortable to you. (And if they read as sexualized to me, I imagine I'm also approaching this differently as a bigger gay man, which is a community in which bodies like mine and larger are completely de-sexualized, so that might also explain why I like them.)

YESSS THIS IS SO COOL!!!!

Ah, thanks for this! I'll adjust if it comes up again in future chapters.
