About

Jenny and Ted discuss Shell 4.x (bonus).


Episode Notes:

  • Ted is wily!
  • As is Wildbow. Way to hide the ball, Wildbow.
  • Boo! There’s racism inside this feminism!
  • Maybe Kayden is tragic but not sympathetic?
  • She’s also seemingly very ineffective when not fighting
  • Kayden and Aster as symbols
  • Purity, blankness, and whiteness
  • Is Theo too “pure”? Or is he lacking “manliness”?
  • Empire Eighty Eight sounds like working at Amazon
  • I don’t really have a quippy line about this, but we try to grapple with how 2011 supervillain Nazis feel different from the 2025 mundane ones
  • Does Kayden want to change? Or even want to want to change?
  • Oops we compared Purity to Tattletale
  • If we can think Kayden's a hero for three-quarters of the chapter, what does that say about heroes?
  • Purity and Bakuda are both changing the odds for the upcoming gang war
  • This is an interlude more like what Jenny was expecting
  • Jenny reads the first five words of the next chapter
  • Does the dog die??
