The Jock Stereotype Reversal and The Voice of Reason

No one knows how much I love this drone. My view of him never shifted so fast either.

Look, the moment I saw this sports man, I instantly thought he would be a stereotypical jock.

And the whole thing where he complimented Uzi and she got all blushy, it made me think I would hate this drone.

Jock idiot crushes aren't a type I like.

But after his last scene in the episode, I got his personality a bit more. Revisiting his initial scene made me love him more.

One of his first things he says is actually being careful with what he says. He says, "I'd say everyone knows Khan's daughter, but then you might blow the other half of her face off."

He actually made sure to not make her mad about something he wanted to say.

He asks her about her new item and she gets excited and rambles about her plans for the day. And she does shove the gun in Thad's face, scaring him a bit, but he calms down a bit as he listens to her little speech.

He even makes a little nod as she speaks, which does indicate he is paying attention to her before he comments on what she says.

When her plan settles in Thad's mind and he realizes it sounds dangerous, he tries to let her know that it doesn't sound safe. But she doesn't take it lightly.

Also, I do like how Thad doesn't seem scared about a gun in his face a second time. He just instantly got used to Uzi's energy.

His next scene where the Murder Drones got into their safe place, he is the only drones willing to fight them in the group. Even though he is clearly hurt

And he even tries to get the "adult" drones to do their jobs and defend [well more be on the offense], but it doesn't work.

He is nearly killed by a drone before Uzi and N come back to save them and defeat the murder drones. And he's just so happy and compliments the two of them, even though he is nervous around the Murder Drone.

I feel like the stereotype of a jock would try to say he could have been fine without their help when they clearly needed it, but this guy is grateful for the duo saving him.

He's also the only one of the group here to say something nice to either of them, while everyone else is quiet; past the initial clapping. It lets you think he is more open to being nice [definitely more than Liz /lh].

In the next episode, he has an even bigger role with the main characters. He helps Uzi out by grabbing her gun from the safe spot last episode, despite being nervous to hold it.

But I do like how whenever she rambles, he just patiently waits for her to finish.

He also compliments the two of them again for saving him. Even though they are his saviors as he calls them, he talks to them like normal drones and has even given them nicknames. N is "N and M's" and Uzi is "Zi"

The big thing I noticed while watching this episode again, and it's that Thad almost acts like a voice of reason to Uzi.

Uzi self-banished herself from home to live on the outside and she even monologues about how she 'can never go back' which clearly shouldn't be what she should do.

Her being on the outside makes sure she has almost no drone interaction. And the only two are Murder Drones, one that keeps trying to scare Uzi away and the other Murder Drone that is only willing to go with whatever Uzi does and won't go against her ideas at this point.

Thad is the only worker drone that she interacts with before she 'un-banishes' herself, and he was the one to get her back.

He informs her about what is going on at home, how the drones seem to not be taking her banishment seriously. But he does go for the side of their home saying they are just "..more confused". Which is understandable, no drone ever seemed to try and banish themselves before.

The main that he says that convinces Uzi to get back home is talking about a topic she is involved with but scares him, the murder drones.

Thad talks about missing drones and the corpse of a drone 'crawling away' which encourages Uzi to come back.

Most of the following scenes have Thad following Uzi with her plan, which is interesting. He obviously is scared about things with the murder drones - besides the one that saved him -, but he comes along with her investigation around the killed murder drone.

Whether he does it so make sure she's safe, or keep her in 'check' like he has been, or because he feels like helping his saviors; he comes along.

Then he gets captured by the almost rebuilt corpse.

When the corpse tries to fool the two with a hologram of Thad, they don't fall for it for a second. So they definitely seem to know about Thad a lot like a friend.

They save him and he is instantly complimenting them, inviting them to a party of his. Seriously, he calls them his saviors and he just still treats them like friends and not superb heros.

I also thought it was fun he called them cool kids by insulting the corpse for not being invited since "Cool kids only" will come to his shin-dig.

I do hope we see him again a bit more, but he does seem stuck in the side character role these last two episodes that are out. n^n

perverts released on my birthday. couldnt have been more happier this year

I just recently got into Inkypages.

Can you draw them with domestic fluff? And do you have any HCs with them?

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

as for headcanons, i actually have only a few of my own (because im not very good when it comes to hcs 💔) but i do have one i really like!

i think, when Macaque really starts to hang out with the group, Tang would somehow get him to proofread his stuff (and also add on to it) and its something that helps them really bond. When Macaque first read the stuff he writes, he smiled and complimented his dedication. It caught Tang off guard, because outside of the times he'd been intimidating, it was rare for him to see Macaque smile that way; but it also makes him glad that he's getting to know that side of him too, so he'd really cherish moments like those.

TYSM FOR THE ASK!!!

< 3 !!!
