Jenny and Ted discuss Extermination 8.x (bonus).
Episode Notes:
- The Tattletale interlude was great but we are counting the chapters until 2 Tattle 2 Tale
- Fic idea: Tiny Tim triggers with his initials-sake’s power
- The headcanon that makes Tattletale Ted’s favorite
- “Dying” in your own chapter is very GRRM
- Stories have plot armor until they demonstrate that they don’t
- It’s very Tattletale to have a whole dang interlude without letting us all the way in
- Being Tattletale is a constant performance
- Who was LiSa and what happened to her that she wishes she could have seen coming?
- Lisa’s power as a LucasArts adventure game narrator or a conversation with an LLM

- Living with (and doing bits with) her power
- The Undersiders have become greater than the sum of their parts
- Over-interpreting Bitch’s perceived motivations
- Unpacking “sociopath” and “damage”
- Since I am 23% fucked up, I expect you must be precisely that fucked up too!
- The “under” in Undersider stands for “under duress”
- What does Lisa really think about Coil and Dinah? And what does Jenny think about Coil’s power?

- Ted finally gets Lisa-pilled about how badly the heroes are doing in Brockton Bay: Good riddance, Boardwalk private security!
- Finally, Taylor is seen by an interlude character, and boy is she SEEN!
- Lisa, like, loves Taylor. Or at least won’t let herself hold a grudge
- Lisa’s safe focus on performance gets her companionship, and Taylor’s risky focus on authenticity gets her intimacy
