But clearly they're not, and there are things they do that are more like Israel, and it just seems really obvious that Owen is Druckmann's self insert as someone who left Israel and the West Bank "Tired of fighting over land I don't give a fck about anymore"

Does that mean Druckman’s current wife is analogous to Abby?

It's funny, I've seen more het guys than lesbians thirsting over Abby, which makes me think some of those gamer bros who hate her protest too much

The muscular Israeli femme supersoldier thing is a meme, it's the idea behind those glamor photos Gal Gadot took that they used for recruiting ads

It is funny that there's kind of a genderbent dynamic here, that Mel is obviously resentful and insecure because she feels like she has to be the nurturing and responsible team mom (and is about to become an actual mom) And can't be the badass action hero of Owen's dreams

I never looked up EXACTLY which scenes were part of the leaks, but I could kind of actually see where the Abby = trans thing could have been a good faith interpretation by someone if they got one or both of the scenes where she seems upset that Mel *and not her* got pregnant

But yeah I mean as a thematic thing it's definitely there, that Abby is not the kind of girl Owen can imagine settling down and starting a family with, he's torn between competing desires

I might have to replay the scene where he tells Abby Mel is pregnant but I always assumed Mel was a rebound and the pregnancy was unintended

Replying to @patiencemosher @arthur_affect and
I mean because of Parallelism Owen clearly only found out about Mel's pregnancy when they reached Jackson, probably the previous day, and he was with her for four or five months before, so she's not *just* a rebound
