Invincible (It’s Been a While)

“Mark, I’ve done some things I regret—”

“Like the xenocide in the second episode, right? I mean, humanity has only ever managed to commit genocides, and the folk who pull those off are generally condemned by the history books.”

“But I need your help, and your strength—”

“Okay, “Invincible”, if I’m supposed to form emotional connections to your characters through this serial format, that means remembering what characters have done, which means you can’t write in a xenocide without me regarding that character as Hitler-squared.”

“Will you help me?”

“…why is this fucking kid not immediately saying no?”
