Insane and gutwrenching new piece of lore dropped, I'm in shambles and it's just the first story.
So Cloakie is finally retconned to not only have a personality, but a backstory and a name! Honestly, I don't mind this decision at all. In fact, I was surprised it didn't happen earlier for synergy purposes. But I really like how it's been done by Straczynski, somehow still loyal to comics on its own unique way. Also it's been such a long time I wouldn't call it synergy anymore, and it's not like the MCU will adapt anything from it. It's still unique and gives a deep layer to a potential character and emotional attachment. It worked for me because now I'm even more pissed that Dahlea is being handed over to random people all the time. She likes Stephen, and that means SO MUCH to me already. Gods, I'm so happy with this whole issue.
