S1 showed all the reasons Nomi is justifiably intensely self-involved, which is fine, but she's still intensely self-involved

Which is interesting because I've heard JMS came up with the original idea for Nomi and the Ws clearly identify with Lito heavily

Well I dunno, I find Lito identifiable because he ends up in awkward romantic situations and his orientation seems fluid

And he's terrified of betrayal for good reason, which is definitely Wachowski autobiography but applies to non celebrities

Yeah Nomi is almost by contrast a fantasy -- someone whose past was all laid out there in her 20s and was free to be openly political
