Also, friendly reminder that Scott was never this wide-eyed naive innocent fandom likes to paint him as.

He grew up with an angry alcoholic father who abandoned him and his mother years ago.

He grew up with a physical illness that impaired his ability to be the athlete he wanted to be, so much so that even his closest friend expressed doubt rather than support when he talked about how he was going to make the team.

He grew up so acutely aware of financial stresses that he went back into the woods to the very spot where he was just attacked by a vicious monster the night before, because he couldn’t afford to lose an inhaler that cost $80.

He grew up so aware of his place in the social hierarchy of high school and the capacity of his classmates to be assholes that he didn’t even blink, let alone protest when Jackson shoves him into the lockers in the iconic ‘where are you getting your juice’ scene.

The world sucks and people can be awful was never a revelation to Scott McCall. It was never a reality he needed to be protected from, that he could be protected from. It takes strength to be aware of the world, of your life sucking, and managing to still be optimistic anyway, choosing to still smile, and make dumb jokes, and have dreams and ambitions and try to always see the best in people.

Stop stripping Scott McCall of his strength pre-pilot just because you can’t conceive of a character who knows the world can be awful and still finds a way to be happy and optimistic and hopeful.

Death to the myth that jaded = strength, that anything else can only mean someone hasn’t seen enough or struggled enough to know that jaded is the only appropriate path forward.
