Episode 4.x (bonus) - "Jumpscare"

0:00 57:45

Jenny and Ted discuss Shell 4.x (bonus).

Episode Notes:

• Ted is wily! • As is Wildbow. Way to hide the ball, Wildbow. • Boo! There’s racism inside this feminism! • Maybe Kayden is tragic but not sympathetic? • She’s also seemingly very ineffective when not fighting • Kayden and Aster as symbols • Purity, blankness, and whiteness • Is Theo too “pure”? Or is he lacking “manliness”? • Empire Eighty Eight sounds like working at Amazon • I don’t really have a quippy line about this, but we try to grapple with how 2011 supervillain Nazis feel different from the 2025 mundane ones • Does Kayden want to change? Or even want to want to change? • Oops we compared Purity to Tattletale • If we can think Kayden's a hero for three-quarters of the chapter, what does that say about heroes? • Purity and Bakuda are both changing the odds for the upcoming gang war • This is an interlude more like what Jenny was expecting • Jenny reads the first five words of the next chapter • Does the dog die??
