I predicted, and am SO GLAD Malevolent has the ending it does, solely because a tragic ending for this podcast would be so thematically off and would annoy me more than anything lmao
TMA could have a tragic ending because of the themes of hopelessness and inevitability, alongside the character's insistance to keep going despite the fact that they were never going to win
Malevolent has themes of hope and prevailing against the odds that are all against you, which is why it would've made absolutely no sense to suddenly 180 at the end, I think both podcasts had exactly the endings they should've
