Did I ever tell you guys Mathmagic is one of my favorite episodes? I barely noticed myself before now, but it really is underrated in my opinion.
It's an episode where Star is faced with a world-ending problem that started with, *surprise surprise*, a magical mishap. And she tries to solve it with a solution she has no idea how to reach. And the solution ends up being wrong, but she saves the day anyway. Because whether the solution was right or wrong wasn't as important as the lives she saved and the fact that she tried. Even if it wasn't the right answer, she put in the effort and did her best.
And that speaks volumes to me in general, but it means so much more now that I've watched Cleaved. IRL my therapist is always reassuring me "What's important is that you did your best. And even if it wasn't your best, you still did the best with what you had." And that is the single best piece of advice I was ever given. And it's a big reason as to why I defend Star's decision to destroy magic.
