@RiseFallNickBck The show heavily implied that the biggest reason Eustace is the way he is is because he was almost never shown kindness growing up. He's mean, but he has his moments of vulnerability and compassion.

@cypopps I feel we have a fixation on doing the right thing. When we're young, we look to the rules for a guiding light, but after we get to know the world (and humanity) we realize that rules don't always align with what's right, especially when we consider who wrote them.

@lyctorprince @jenn0wow Writing isn't as easy as it sounds either. It's one thing to have an idea for a story, but writing means that you have to put it into words, make it comprehensible, and organize it all into a beginning, middle, and end. And then there's character development and deus ex machina.
