A/N: I didn't want this to be my 30th chapter, but I think it's about time someone mentioned this because I've been seeing it a lot throughout the entire fandom.

Almost every character in Solarballs is canonically morally gray or on that spectrum. They have flaws, any sentient being with a sense of personality and mind has flaws. All of them have their own personality, abilities, words and etc that move the plot forward. I don't think it's fair to hate on the moons who followed the moon revolution.

I don't think the moons are perfect. Ganymede and Europa obviously aren't doing it in well intentions and are clearly antagonistic and hypocritical but if we disregard them, all the moons had good intentions. Most moons wernt even looking foward to killing the Earth they just went along cause thats what they believed NEEDED to happen - they didnt know Earth would change, most of them hadnt even met him before and were convinced he was pure evil.

Earth wasn't perfect either. There. I said it. Do I need to say more or..?

Now let's move onto Saturn's moons. Suddenly everyone hates them now..?? When most of them have tried reasoning AGAINST attacking the Earth during the moon rev? Yes, they were rushing him through the intros and we see that he's trying to fix his mistakes but he hasn't bothered to know (technically) his own kids names. For billions of years.

Imagine how hurt you'd feel if your parental figure didn't even know your name, or a basic fact about you.

And do NOT say that he had memory issues, I don't believe that for a second. He remembers the Planet X incident, he remembers GANYMEDE, who isn't even one of his own moons! And he doesn't remember a basic fact about Titan, his OBVIOUS FAVORITE.

I like Saturn. He has good intentions, but he's not perfect. Nobody is.  He does care about his moons to an extent, he cries when he found out he killed one of them, but his way of handling it was... not the best. Just because Saturn is emotional and the moons were rushing him, didn't mean they were completely in the wrong. Let's not villainize them.

I know that 146 moons is a lot to memorize but you know Saturn's had like 4 billion years to AT LEAST get to know his biggest ones. Like Jupiter at least knows the main four and some basic facts about them and has some knowledge about his other moons names. Saturn doesn't even know the facts about Titan💀💀 HIS FAVOURITE!!

And also about the people saying that "oh Saturn must have memory issues🥺🥺" NO HE DOES NOT I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT EVER!! Unlike Neptune or even Earth for that matter, up until this video no one had even a whiff of that headcanon because no stuff in the show points to this. This is just straight up people pulled out their ass to believe that Saturn is still completely good.

I side with his moons way more even if his moons other than Titan are a bit shallow. It's great that he's making progress as shown through the end of the episode but people VILLAINIZING the Saturnian moons just because of that just pisses me off so bad.

Even if things went south and got pushed farther then they shouldve - the goal was for something real and should be taken into account. I wished people would see it from the moons perspective. They're practically the reason for a major plot point, guys.

I don't like making my chapters super short, but it's okay I guess. I just hope this made people realize this, because I've been noticing it ever since the new episode.
