I'm so pleased you're enjoying my very timely Lost rambling! I've crashed onto this island long after everyone's left and I JUST HAVE A LOT TO SAY.
WHAT THE FUCK WHY DID LOCKE DO THAT
The eternal Lost experience! It's cracking me up that Locke's just going around, cheerfully making enemies of everyone on the island. I love that you were calling your friend during breaks, too; you needed to get your yelling done as soon as possible!
It's always interesting to revisit a canon and see how you experience characters differently! I'm glad you've come around to Shannon.
i've never cared much for Jack personally, but hearing you talk about him has got me reconsidering him!
It's good to hear this too! From my very vague osmosis, I got the impression that a lot of people in the fandom didn't like Jack. Watching the show, I've been going 'I can definitely see why this guy would be an offputting character, but I kind of love him.'
(even while the plot's totally off the rails, they never stop doing interesting character development and delightfully unpredictable shipping fodder, which is absolutely what kept me invested until the end, haha.)
This bodes extremely well! Final Fantasy VIII is my favourite game in the world, so I'm definitely able to forgive some questionable plotting if a canon's willing to give me interesting character moments.
Please know that I caught myself whispering 'THEY ARE LOST' multiple times while writing my reply to this comment.
