But no, SERIOUSLY, though. Comic!Scout is played so heavily for comic relief and that is fantastic. He is adorable and dumb and funny. It's a wonderful way to use him. Soldier gets the same treatment. But there are these little flashes of Scout being a total badass, and he really deserves that resolution. Soldier also got his girl! And I'm not saying turn Pauling into a damsel with it, but let Scout play the hero. If it comes at the cost of him getting stabbed and tragically bleeding out and asking if Medic has switched back to their side yet, then so much the better. goddamn, I wish I had a place to write this.
