Something about Lake. Something about how their first chosen name was MT, for Mirror Tulip—but they never intended to keep it. Something about following in someone else’s footsteps all your life with no choice or say in it, to the point that when you finally break out of the cycle even then all you have of your world’s perspective is the world through that person’s eyes—and so you name yourself after them even now, holding onto the pieces even as you shatter them.

Something about how every person who sees you views you as lesser—sliver, null, nothing at all—and how “MT” sounds so very much like “empty.” How you knew from the start that that wasn’t a name you’d be keeping, that there was a better one for you out there. How you planned to be something—no matter what anyone else said.

Something about living your life as someone else’s reflection and constantly being on the run from them even though they are where you came from. Something about choosing to leave the place and person that made you, because you can only be yourself when you are away from what your makers want you to be.

Something about chasing your goals and being so close to reaching them after all this time but having the people at the top look through you like you aren’t even there. Like you’re nothing. Something about that unique sort of frustration where you want someone to CARE, and so you take the nearest uncaring being and make them see you, and you tell them that YOU ARE A PERSON, tears in your eyes because that’s all you’ve ever been, but the world keeps refusing to see it. To see you.

Something about Lake. A reflective surface, something you’ve spent your entire life chained to and then running from the moment you got free. But it’s the first mirror you saw yourself in that didn’t make you afraid.

Something about Lake.

I love how Lake asks Mace if his prime was a jerk, or if he just is, because it forces him to reflect on his own identity in opposition to his prime, while Mace prefers to pretend he has no identity or purpose of his own. Just enacting "mirror law." But this mfer goes above and beyond in tracking down Lake, and convincing them that they aren't a person. This isn't mirror law, this is a personal issue between the two of them, which their primes are not involved in, and will never know about. Maybe Mace was once the perfect reflection, but he's his own person now, too.

I wonder if Lake is left or right-handed

#infinity train #infinity train book 2 #lake infinity train #lake olsen #she's written in reverse her whole life until she wasnt in the mirror world anymore #so idk if she's gonna keep using her left hand or if she'd prefer to switch now she has that option #infinity train cracked reflection #I should rewatch with this in mind

I am NOT the right person to talk about this but I would love to see someone more qualified speak on how Infinity Train season 2 could be easily read as a trans/lgbt narrative? In terms of Lake’s story Tulip functions as her deadname, and we see her methodically change her appearance and develop her personality and desires to be truer to who she actually is and not who she was expected to be. Throughout the story she uses a name that feels improper (MT) because she hasn’t found one that feels “her” yet until she decides on “Lake”, which represents something important to her (as many trans names do). I’m absolutely NOT the person to be writing in-depth analyses on trans narratives because I’m definitely not trans, but I don’t think I’m crazy here.
