Idk I just feel like it sets up S3 really well. Like the whole thing of S2 is that we pretty much get a somewhat new character with Amir being Chad; it’s like “Oh, that’s Amir, we know him and how he is from S1”, but it’s not really, because it becomes really clear that his memories shaped who he is so much that without them he has this different personality entirely. (plus how much Chad himself emphasizes how he isn’t the old Amir Rupert remembers is important because like techincallyyyyy you are but like. Yeah he’s sorta right. He’s not really the same guy without those formative memories) And then, as he forms memories as Chad and as he interacts with Rupert and those around him, we see him change kinda and see how this is affecting, and these experiences just change his character so much, and you can just really see the impact of like the interactions with people around you/loved ones and the memories you make with them
Then comes S3, and we see also the negative side of this, where someone’s memories can affect them so much that they are at the core of their insecurities. Memories can be a crucial part of identity and hold up a person, or as we see with the Despair can be one’s downfall, as the basis of their deepest, darkest worries about themselves and those around them. And then in the finale, we have Rupert, drawing on these memories he has and these experiences that have shaped who he is so much, that it lets him destroy the Despair. And yeah it’s a bit corny, like wow he wins with the power of love, how original, but I just feel like with all this context we get it’s quite sweet and I like what it says about the sheer impact of experiences and the memories they make. Anyway TTP S2 ily <3
