Alice: Someone Other Than Us Is Using The Pond

Characters in The Way Home who don’t know they’re in The Way Home. Max Goodwin looks at Alice and sees science lab partner in the 2020s and someone whose grandmother knew his grandmother and then meanwhile she’s *checks notes* his grandmother’s mildly traitorous-by-circumstance time travelling friend in the 1970s who happens to be the granddaughter of said friend’s unrequited beloved and her romantic nemesis; Alice also happened to be at their science teacher’s insane party at Max’s grandmother’s house before he was their science teacher or old. This isn’t a time travel show to Max this is ‘this girl is niceys about granny and we like the same gross ass fries :)’ Yeah sorry this niceys girl has an accidental side hobby of being there when your granny’s life goes to shit and no she doesn’t even feel good about it

So ummmm I made this

Taking a guess now that next season the timelines will be present day, 1980s when Kat and Elliot were babies, and the 1920s???

Xavier got accused of killing his girlfriend, got hit by a car, died, saw ghosts, came back to life, realized he saw his dead ex girlfriends dead dad, got told his ex-girlfriend was now possessed, then got trapped in a cabin with the girl he was unknowingly flirting with online for WEEKS—who was also his dead ex girls best friend—and the possessed body of said ex girlfriend.

School spirits headcannons! I've been getting very into school spirits recently:))

Since I've been updating the presentation I made about Elliot to include examples from season 3, including evidence of a key trait I was actually missing before (sensory issues). Holy Palkia guys I think this is the most thought I've ever put into a single headcanon for a single character. Never thought I'd be this hyperfixated on anything produced by Hallmark. Side note that reading a 1000 page PDF on a laggy ass school issued Chromebook sucks and I don't recommend doing that ever.

If Elliot actually IS autistic, he isn't diagnosed, and some of his behavior the last couple of seasons is at least partially the result of him being stressed and burnt out. Maybe, being that he's a teacher, he'll meet a student who is very similar to him and is diagnosed, and then be like "oh. OH. That explains a lot actually." Like I did about myself when working on this.

Man, I really did a whole presentation for an actual high school class to back up a headcanon lmao. To be fair I also, a couple years earlier, when I got to choose any science related topic to do a project on, proceeded to talk about moths for 10 minutes. You know, I could probably do a similar project about Kat and ADHD(eez nuts lol sorry) but I'd have to dig through 2 flash drives to see if I even still have the PDF of the entire DSM-5 stored somewhere from when I had to back up all my files from school before my account was shut down after I graduated.

that's funny because I've been imitating Elliot for like 3 weeks at least now. I just put a gayer spin on it.
