How was Jane a creator's pet? I mean, despite her having a good amount of good deeds, she's mostly made memorable by her often harsh and selfish viewpoints. If anything, Kenny and Clementine were the pets, they got all the 'feel good' treatment and nostalgia, plus overshadowed almost every other character.
Which is funny considering Jane herself was clearly a Creator's Pet of J.T. Petty, that other guy, and whatever executives were over them to begin with, so Karma?
Clementine is the protagonist, so any overshadowing she did was definitely more a necessary undertone of the format than any overt dedication to making her stand out. And that's a fact considering some of the criticisms of Season 2.
Kenny was definitely a Creator's Pet, though; No Going Back was essentially two different Pets going at it with one winning out due to said nostalgia. At the very least, he actually earned it compared to Jane, who just randomly had it handed to her on a gold dish. Not saying it isn't annoying mind you--perhaps way moreso.
Meanwhile, Jane's entire character was altered to be much more [superficially?] likable during production, even with her already nonstandard design implemented ahead of time. Still, there's the fact that:
She's suddenly given all this prominence, nuance, and backstory that no other character besides Kenny and to an extent Nick can rival
Gets the most time alone with Clementine than any other character(again, possibly barring Kenny)
She's always in the right place at the right time to have "cool [actiony] moments" that other characters could've used
How the scenes with her(aka most of them) almost always end with her at a higher point than whatever character she's going against
(specifically, getting worked up when Rebecca finally goes off on her, elaborating on her tragic backstory after trying and determinately succeeding in pressuring Clementine into leaving Sarah, acting like she's gonna cry after robbing Arvo(which was her idea to begin with, but I digress), and leaving Clementine as the only character who acknowledges what happens to Sarah(which she also enables, btw) while Luke takes the fall for it)
Whenever she's in the wrong, she'll generally be made out to somehow be right and/or will always get a chance to make up for it not long afterwards. How many other characters get that chance in the game series period?
The story does way more to encourage you to go with her than Mike(which I know is true because admittedly, even I fell for this trap twice because I somehow forgot that was even an option), who she was supposed to be being characterized alongside
Gets a full Season 1 style dialogue tree in a hub(which was only done in Episode One with whichever member of the Cabin Group you choose while Carlos is examining the bite)
And finally, yhe blatant display of pretty much all this is Sarah's canon death, where she's literally the only one who can go save her(with the visual on the choice not even bothering to pretend Jane herself is in any danger compared to Sarah) and, despite sticking to her guns about not wanting to and being hyped up as hypercompetent throughout the episode, she literally lifts a huge chunk of the rubble up, get's wacked in the face by a random plank(which hit's hard enough to draw blood btw), abandons Sarah to the walkers despite literally being right there with a gun of her own, and acts all sorry all of a sudden to by easy sympathy for when she leaves. So she more or less gets exactly what she wanted regardless of your choices with practically no repercussions whatsoever, with the worse thing that happens is Clementine finallydeterminately telling her to shut up.
Also note that No Going Back ignored this and pretty much everything else about her character beyond the superficial things like boinking Luke, giving Clementine advice(and determinately her nailfile), Jaime(who's just namedropped like it's no biggie with no real relevance to Jane's actual "development"), and robbing Arvo(which is essentially a "Complainer is Wrong" moment from Kenny that goes nowhere, right down to Arvo fuckin giving her puppy dog eyes at one point). All of this is likely because Nick Breckon came back, was presumably mandated to give her top billing in lieu of Luke, and was ordered to change certain key details meaning she had little to back her up beyond being made out to be this great hero all of a sudden, which is especially insulting not because of all that stuff I listed above(though it definitely fuckin "helps"), but that wasn't really what her character was supposed to be to begin with.
The only reason it seemingly waned was because of said shallowness,people both here and on staff generally agreeing (for better or worse, mind you) that she is superficial. and Kenny just having more going for him despite all that--including going crazy, ironically enough.
Sorry, I didn't mean to fall back on old habits here(damnnit, it's catching!) but I really do hate who her is, likely was, and will always be.

Staying silent when Danny is talking to Jolene has Jolene saying that she brings "fresh meat" to the farm and you can confront Danny about this which Danny responds with "We do our own hunting."
David is barrel chested with very thick arms. I definitely would not tangle with him as he overpowers every character that he fights during the season. Javi was more lean but he was still pretty strong.

In Season 1 Episode 5 if you don't cut Lee's arm after he passes out on the ladder and gets back up again every time he uses his bitten arm to climb the ladder he's got a pained expression on his face, showing that his arm is kinda gone already. After that he doesn't use his left arm that much again for the rest of the episode
In Season 1, Ed was an engineer and Diana was a doctor. They were largely responsible for Clementine as she was when we're introduced to her and it is their influence that affects how people see her..
In Season 2, Carver is [apparently] an engineer and Carlos is a doctor. They were largely responsible for Sarah as she was when we're introduced to her and have their own views as parents that affect how they see Clementine as well.

Coincidence?
TWD: The Alien is about Rick's brother. In the end of the comic he dies and asks Claudia to deliver a message to his brother Rick as a last wish.
It is hinted in Letter Hacks that Claudia might appear again in the Comic Series. So could Claudia be The Princess?
She must have been bitten on the back of her right ankle or something but could have had a chunk chewed out of it so she bled out. Just because it seems to be more concealed than the other, probably her attempt to stop the bleeding or some crap.
They say walkers are the ones who killed Kate but if you look closely, she has no bite marks. It's either Telltale lazy or Kate just died na… moreturally. If she was killed by walkers, how come she just turned right away? Doesn't it take like one or two days to become one of them after being eaten?
I'm no expert on construction vehicles (although I may be) but don't bulldozers have tank looking wheels instead of normal wheels? Still lmao when come and Kate called it a bulldozer and I was sitting in front of my tv like: but...but... my toy bulldozer never had those tires... XD
Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but the AMA also shed light about the word busket:
Busket is a word our director made up when d… moreesigning those action sequences, which we found funny enough that it ended up sticking. And for the record (in the department of things we didn't properly name in-game), I'm told that's not actually a bulldozer, it's a front loader.

Kenny: I don't trust myself around him anymore so I'm going to leave him alone with an 11 year old girl who isn't strong enough yet to deal with a group of walkers alone.

These fucked up eyes have seen everything. I know exactly what you're talking about but just to see if it is the thing you are thinking: does it involve clementine fruit *********?

Carver was an engineer to explain a settlement at a hardware store. Carlos was a doctor because someone was supposed to deliver the baby. It's a coincidence that Clem's parents had the same professions.

Ugh I regret to say that I have seen it. Internet 2k17. Can't go anywhere with fucked up picture showing up every other second. Even safe search isn't that safe anymore.

I really like those: "X noticed your suspicion", "Y feels hurt", "Z changed the subject", etc.
Eye of the beholder, I guess.
Holy shit, I didn't know this was a thing! I knew there had to be something going on between them, but I never thought it was like that!

The beans Clementine was eating in S2E1 were likely Butter Beans
When you facepalm too hard

Oh shit I think I've seen that parody while looking through fan art
Laughing at what?
was there another video before the OST?
I'm no expert on construction vehicles (although I may be) but don't bulldozers have tank looking wheels instead of normal wheels? Still lmao when come and Kate called it a bulldozer and I was sitting in front of my tv like: but...but... my toy bulldozer never had those tires... XD
Let's just forget that javi x Jesus was ever mentioned.
People who think you are lying get angry...
Oh shit.
Yup it's a coincidence
You got my mind a-racing.
Maybe Claudia=Princess=Stephanie?
Kenny: I don't trust myself around him anymore so I'm going to leave him alone with an 11 year old girl who isn't strong enough yet to deal with a group of walkers alone.
Also, does Danny immediately kill her there?
Considering all the callbacks and connections they make to Season 1, in dialogue or otherwise, I doubt that.
On here? Because I seriously doubt that.
But I do believe you might've seen it.
These fucked up eyes have seen everything. I know exactly what you're talking about but just to see if it is the thing you are thinking: does it involve clementine fruit *********?
Exactly!
Carver was an engineer to explain a settlement at a hardware store. Carlos was a doctor because someone was supposed to deliver the baby. It's a coincidence that Clem's parents had the same professions.
Oh yes, in-universe, obviously. But out of universe, it was likely intentional at some point or another.
Ugh I regret to say that I have seen it. Internet 2k17. Can't go anywhere with fucked up picture showing up every other second. Even safe search isn't that safe anymore.
Chyeah, that's how it is. At the very least, it's relatively tame for that artist's standards.
Although Clementine can knock him down easily in ep3
Berating Kenny for not saving Shawn and saying he didn't kill Shawn in Episode 3 causes Lee to apologize.
(?) Your story sounds like bullshit.
Really miss these nice little touches.
I was under the impression that Claudia was white.
Clementine's favourite subject in school was history.
No. It plays out the same way where Danny kills Jolene right before she says "Tell'em boy, tell'em what you got in mind for-"
The walker in the shed that attacks Lee in Episode 4 has the same animation as Kenny xD
Does it cut to there immediately or is there more you can say to her?
