Post season 4 headcanons

Immediately after the show ends, Esteban and Zia go off to that weird dimension with the naacals and the cities

Meanwhile, Tao, Mendoza, Isabella and Gaspar get ready to leave for Patala. They say their goodbyes to Pedro and sancho, who stay in Zimbabwe.

Obviously they take the condor, but Tao has never driven it before (no one has. I mean Mendoza did once, in season 1, but he immediately crashed it, so…). It takes some time getting used to (Tao almost crashes into the wall. Again), but they make it in one piece.

When they arrive in Patala, Tao announces his idea of building the new order of the condor in the raja’s palace, who likes the idea (although the last time he let a scientist conduct his research it ended badly, he trusts Tao and his friends cause they saved him and his village from said scientist). Furthermore, Tao plans to make the order like a sort of hub for scientific research and knowledge. He also wants to share the knowledge of Mu with the rest of the world (cause what’s the point in having so much advanced scientific knowledge if you can’t use it?). And of course, he wants the world to appreciate and respect his ancestors just like he does, and make sure the knowledge is used for good.

Mendoza and Isabella are 100% behind his project (even Gaspar helps, not cause he wants to, but Isabella kinda forces him so yeah)

Once Esteban and Zia are finished running around the 7 cities and chatting with the naacals, they go to Patala to join Tao, who’s extremely happy to see them, obviously.

And so, slowly but surely, they begin establishing the order of the condor and blabla.

Tao remembers the old order of the hourglass, and how its basically been defunded by the king. And so, he offers Athanaos and Nostradamus to come continue their studies in Patala. Athanaos immediately accepts cause 1) he likes it there and 2) he gets to be with Esteban (finally, it was long overdue). Nostradamus on the other hand, doesn’t really wanna go cause he’s lived at chambord for so long, it’s hard to just leave everything behind. But once Tao tells him about his plans for a huge observatory, he immediately packs his shit and joins him

So yeah the rest of this is just slice of life moments of everybody chilling in Patala and of course setting up the order of the condor

Unfortunately not everything can be cute and fluffy. Because uhhhhh. Ambrosius is still out there. And he’s got a flying machine with like,,, lasers and stuff? And he’s like immortal now?? Or at least very hard to kill. So yeah we don’t get to relax just yet

Isabella and Mendoza essentially decide they have to figure out where tf Ambrosius is, if he’s planning anything and how to stop him. They’re even more worried cause they know how much Ambrosius wants to have tao at his side, and that now he’ll really stop at nothing cause he’s lowkey immortal (fun fact: the name Ambrosius means immortal).

And soooo they get a ship. Just like they wanted. And of course Gaspar just has to come cause 1) I love their trio and 2) they need all the help they can get

So yeah they periodically go on missions and stuff but they always come back home (to the kids in Patala)

Meanwhile, Pedro and sancho are in Zimbabwe and set up their tavern just like they wanted. Pedro gets married to Nyamita and maybe they’ll have a kid soon, maybe? (Fun fact: I didn’t like their relationship at first but it grew on me and I think they’re cute)

Back in Patala, Mendoza obviously misses his old friends, even though he doesnt say it. I mean, sure he’s really happy and proud of them for starting a new and healthy chapter in their lives, but they are his first and dearest friends. Zia immediately realizes that he’s upset, and the kids offer to periodically fly him to Zimbabwe to see them (and the kids obviously wanna see them too! They’re the kids’ uncles after all!)

And I can just imagine like. One day, they receive a message from Zimbabwe that Pedro and Nyamita are soon having a baby and they all cram into the condor, fly to Zimbabwe to see them 😭

Esteban, Zia and Tao are super excited about having a cousin. Pedro is freaking out cause he never imagined he’d be a dad one day. sure, he wanted to but now it’s actually happening and he doesn’t know if it’s all gonna work out. Esteban, Zia and Tao reassure him that he’ll be great, since he’s already so good with kids. And of course, Mendoza couldn’t be happier for his friend

Etc etc you get me

Fake tweets: Part 15

I included marinche now! Since some people were asking

[mementomorimc]

Te amo... quisiera hablar contigo, tener una agradablrnplstica por telefono y desastrasarnos de nuestra vida, quisiera sentirte un poquito cerca con todo el corazón... 😔😔 323400....

[mementomorimc]

Me pregunto si tu me pensaras así como yo te pienso... si de por si ya vivias en mi cabeza después de esa ultima "conversación" te he recordado con dolor, no quisiera que estuvieras lejos de mi 😔

Al final lo que mas me duele y lo que mi cabeza no puede entender es como llevas esa "doble vida" entre lo que vives y lo que sientes, como estas con ella mientra sigues añorando mi besos, mi voz, mi piel, y entonces quedan dos opciones o le estas mintiendo a ella o me estas mintiendo a mi...

En cualquiera de ambos casos esta acción no representa al hombre que conocí o tal vez nunca te conocí del todo...

En fin, espero que algun día leas esto... 🦴🦴🥀

Sexism

I love season 3 but there’s a moment that always bugs me

The part where Mendoza first meets Isabella and refuses to fight her because she’s a woman

I hate it cause 1) it’s obviously really sexist and 2) it’s also out of character

First of all, it really shouldn’t be that strange for Mendoza to fight a woman, given that he’s DONE THAT BEFORE. Remember in season 1 when they met the Amazonians, the blonde one attacks him and he fights her. Her being a woman is never brought up. Now you might say he only fought her cause she attacked him first. But I don’t think so. He never treats the Amazonian women differently, and doesn’t think it’s wrong to fight them. For example, when they’re brought to the queendom, Mendoza remarks that it’ll be hard for them to escape because the amazonians clearly have a well trained military. It doesn’t matter if they’re women or not. And He hasn’t said this about anyone else before

But then in season 3. He had no problem fighting Isabella when he thinks she’s a man. But once he learns she’s a girl, he stops??? It makes no sense at all

And now you might say. Perhaps they added this scene to show the struggles a character like Isabella might face in that time period, because she’s doing things women didn’t traditionally do. To that I say

1) Mcog has never been historically accurate

2) Isabella doesn’t face any struggles due to being a girl:

Her father brought her around the world with her and saw no problem in her learning to fight. Despite being a villain, he’s pretty open minded

Ambrosius chooses her as his right hand man (or I guess woman) because of her skills. He hates her because of her betrayal. Again, despite being the big villain of the show, he’s…. NOT sexist??

When Gaspard first meets her, he decides to buy her a dagger. So clearly. Fighting women isn’t weird

Nobody in the order of the hourglass seems to care that she’s a girl

This is looking bad for Mendoza cause the only other people that make sexist comments are… the olmecs. And it lowkey makes sense for them, since they have no female olmecs

I also wanna say that Mendoza being sexist is out of character. If he was sexist in season 1, it would be impossible for him to reach his goal (find the cities) because he wouldn’t give any weight to whatever important info Zia would give him. Or anyone they met. If he was sexist he’d miss out on a lot of potential allies that could help him find the cities

Board games

Here is what I think would happen if the Mcog fam played various card or board games

Playing uno….

Esteban: wins all the time

Mendoza: loses all the time. Hates the game

Tao: gets mad cause he can’t play a strategy game

Zia: forgets the rules

Pedro: thinks they’re playing poker

Sancho: surprised whenever he loses

Playing chess….

Esteban: takes 5 hours to make one move

Mendoza: always wins

Zia: falls asleep, has never finished a game

Tao: memorized a bunch of chess moves, is here to win

Pedro: thinks they’re playing checkers

Sancho: likes to play with the little horse

Playing monopoly…

Esteban: gets angry if he can’t have the a tiny car

Zia: strategy is just to buy as much houses as she can

Mendoza: makes everyone go bankrupt, takes loans from others with insane interest rates, stopped following the rules hours ago

Tao: is the banker, argues with people not following the rules

Sancho; falls asleep cause it takes hours to finish a game

Pedro: ends up bankrupt, spends whole game in jail
