Something that I really like about The Good Place is that at times it feels like fanfiction. It has that element of taking the same characters and placing them in a reality in which something is different to see what changes about their thoughts and actions and what stays the same. All the different combinations and types of relationships that arise with each reboot (Jason and Janet vs. Jason and Tahani, romantic Eleanor and Chidi vs. platonic Eleanor and Chidi, even mention of a reboot where Eleanor and Tahani were soulmates) totally remind me of fans rewriting the canon to get their ships together. Heck, the most recent season is basically “AU where the characters never died.” You get to see that comparison of “what ifs” whereas in most shows there’s only one canon that they stick to, and I find that so appealing and fun.

The Good Place is 802 AUs in a trenchcoat

so in the 800 times they got reset, there’s been some Chidi/Eleanor, some Eleanor/Tahani, and some Tahani/Jason.

So there’s… a non-zero chance that there was some Chidi/Jason going on at some point.

And to be honest, all I can imagine is, like, it’s a timeline where for some reason Jason kept quiet for a lot longer so Chidi finds himself attracted to this wise, calm, silent monk that just listens while Chidi rants about the problems he’s facing….

and then one day Jason opens his mouth.

#eleanor you big flirt

[id: a gifset from The Good Place showing Eleanor and Tahani talking in Chidi’s office. Eleanor is leaning against Chidi’s desk while Tahani is sat in a chair opposite.

Eleanor: Well, welcome to Australia. Oh, if you need a place to crash while you get settled, my motel has a pull-out sofa.

Tahani nods and smiles, looking unsure.

Eleanor: 

Although, as I say that, and I look at you, and your whole thing, I realize that’s absurd, and you should probably just get your own place.

Tahani: Yes, I–I think that’s best. But–but thank you.

Eleanor nods and smiles. end id.]

Chidi Anagonye, a man of many languages.

[id: two gifs of Chidi from The Good Place, wearing a shirt and tie and sitting behind a desk.

Chidi: “I grew up in Senegal so my native language is French, but I went to American school so I also speak English. And German, and Greek, and” (Chidi crosses his fingers) “Latin, just in case it ever comes back.”
