I fear this started with a fanart I saw of Robert dicking someone down with a Mecha Man strap-on, and I thought it was so silly but it got me thinking… Are there sex shops that deal in toys with superhero designs? 😭

But, also, in general, how famous does a hero have to be to start getting merch in stores?

I know canonically all three Mecha Men have action figures in toy stores, but it’s also established that they’re super famous.

But, also, would SDN market merchandise of their heroes? Like, imagine Z-Team photo cards???

Visi’s labeled as a “Loner” in her file, and she very much makes it known that she’s used to being and working on her own.

I feel like it’s safe to assume she only moved in with her roommate after leaving Shroud and the Red Ring, right? If she’s not lying about leaving the Red Ring by choice (which I don’t believe she is, and I believe Shroud lied about planting her at SDN because he’s lied several times about the way he killed Robert’s dad, but I digress), this makes her decision on who to live with all the more crucial.

After escaping a whole villain system and trying to turn her life around, this was the person she ran to to start a new life with. I feel like they’d have to be pretty important for her to trust sharing a domicile with, right?

What’s her relationship to her roommate? Did they know each other before she moved in with them? Do they only talk when they have to? Was it a random match sort of arrangement where they never knew each other and only live together to split rent? Could she have even casually bluffed about having a roommate and actually be living alone? Why would she feel the need to lie about having a roommate if that were the case?

They should’ve made the *true* her/Mandy have brown eyes. Cause like the fact she’s self conscious about Mandy’s brown hair and height, I personally think, they should’ve had her eyes be brown!!!

“Oh but Mystics why is that?”

ILL TELL YOU WHY. BECAUSE I RELATE TO HER.

I’m naturally a dirty blond to the point my hair looks brownish, and I have brown eyes. I remember when I was a kid all the way until I was 13(maybe even 15) how badly I wanted bright golden blond hair and blue or even green eyes because that’s “peak beauty.” All the girls who I thought were so pretty were all the girls who had blue eyes and blond hair…. But then I looked closer, a lot of my favorite heroines were just like me. They had dark blond hair or brown hair and brown eyes. It was like I was finally seeing just how beautiful I am even if not the “ideal” of the beauty standard. Hell even girls with black/brown hair and blue eyes were peak beauty standards but never the girls with dirty blond/brown hair and brown eyes.

So her being a brunette with brown eyes would’ve been so perfect she was insecure with her looks and making her look like the equivalent of Megan Fox isn’t selling that point. Give her more of the less seen standards. Especially if we assume she was raised in a society where darker tone aesthetics weren’t what girls wanted. Or assume she loves watching Hollywood movies, and all she’s seeing is the blonde and blue eyed girl getting the guy.

It would’ve been more realistic, heck even if she needs glasses to see cause we love fucking with that trope, give her imperfections like that. And make her the mirror of Robert so that them being one in the same is more perfect.

Okay that’s all thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
