K: What’s the angstiest idea you’ve ever come up with?
@corporatestooge and I had this whole long involved discussion about basically (uh cw character death, super angst):
some nonspecific shenanigans go down on helios
jack-piloted rhys ends up in an altercation with sasha
sasha gets the upper hand relatively quick bc rhys is a noodle no matter who is at the wheel
before she can hurt him though rhys is like wait wait wait sasha stop! so she does
jk it was jack messing with her, he disarms her, they’re fighting again
jack’s taunting her the whole time about how rhys is dead, or is he?, he is, or maybe he’s freaking out right now!, or maybe i’m just throwing you off your game haha
sasha finally gets the upper hand again, gets one of those split second telltale decisions like [shoot him in the arm] [shoot him in the chest]
decides rhys is gone, jack’s using him like a meat suit, that’s fucked up and i need to end it, goes for [shoot him in the chest]
while jack is dying he’s still doing the “wah sasha it’s me” thing, which she ignores... until he starts talking about how it’s not her fault, she did what she had to, it’s okay, and she realizes it actually is rhys this time
so rhys dies in her arms while sasha sits there thinking about how she could’ve just shot him in the arm
i guess eventually fiona finds them, like the gif of troy returning with pizza, manages to drag sasha to an escape pod or whatever so they can get back to pandora
fiona represses the hell out of everything so she can focus on taking care of sasha who is obviously... like... shattered
presumably vaughn never speaks to either of the girls again
athena and sasha share some nice ‘accidentally killed someone we loved’ bonding
ha HA bet you didn’t think i had anything that elaborately plotted huh hbc
there’s approximately a 0.000001% chance i ever write this
