If You Cant Handle Me At My Edward Fishhands You Dont Deserve Me At My Evelyn Tucci

If you can’t handle me at my Edward Fishhands you don’t deserve me at my Evelyn Tucci

That moment also betrays a certain knowingness on Kepler's part, which implies that Goddard purposely understocked supplies on the Hephaestus so they could be used as bargaining chips later on—

Kepler reintroduces luxuries like coffee, as well as basic hygiene products like toothpaste and presumably soap (as mentioned in Little Revolucion!), upon his arrival. That act of "kindness" masks the obtrusive and ill-intentioned nature of his arrival by diverting attention towards necessities and familiarities the crew's been deprived of. We know at this point that Goddard is bad, but this is one of their earliest examples of manipulation tactics that extend beyond just lying.

And better learn this sense through song

The loudest become the strong

Blue: TGWDLM

Red: America is Great Again
