Dex and the Neverseen
Okay, but like, I cannot get over this. So why didn’t the Neverseen even think about recruiting Dex? Here are my reasons:
- Most Neverseen members are people who suffered under the unjust system the council made. Dex also has these problems, plus he knows that his brother will never manifest and will get treated shitty for the rest of his life, so there is a motive behind Dex possibly joining them. It would make so much more sense than what Keefe’s motive was for joining them.
- I just want him to be more interesting, and we need a bad match family point of view. Most of Sophie’s friends are nobles, and she is too. They didn’t suffer like Dex did in early childhood. Even though Sophie suffered in her childhood, she didn’t suffer like Dex, so it would be interesting to see Dex evolve to a similar version of Brant.
- He is super smart, so the whole “the Neverseen are five steps ahead” thing would make much more sense. Like, I am sorry, but how can four people without a stable leader outsmart entire nations?
- His inventions would help the Neverseen uncover more secrets of the council and possibly get it broadcasted like it happened in flashback. And maybe there would be a civil war after because the elves don’t want to put up with this no more.
- He made a device that can stop abilities from working. Like, a little more work and experimenting, and it could even work better on Sophie.
- He could totally make them weapons that are far more dangerous.
- Like, if we have a Dex meltdown, then Fitz would change his view of the system, so we have two characters already better developed than in the OG timeline, yayyy.
So yeah, he would be an amazing Neverseen member.
