80% of this actually sounds kinda interesting. I’m also a sucker for time travel and what-if scenarios, and one of the five people who actually like Terminator Genisys, so make of that what you will.
But the fact that it all stems from Ramona divorcing Scott, with future Ramona being depicted as right while future Scott is the bad guy, completely spits in the comic’s face and insults the original idea that these were two terrible people helping each other to become less terrible. Going back to the Terminator comparison, it’s the beginning of Dark Fate all over again. “Oh, you know how the first two movies were all about ensuring John’s survival and the end of the second movie said the future would be safe? now he dies in the first five minutes lol fuck you”
The whole merging with past Ramona thing also sounds dumb. Based on what little I know, here’s how I’d do it since everyone definitely asked:
- The divorce is mutual, with both Scott and Ramona being at fault because they’re both still terrible people
- Scott is more upset about this than Ramona, and Gideon - who’s still alive and petty about Ramona - messes with Scott’s mind using the mind chip he used on Ramona in the movie to make him evil, in the hopes that time travel mishaps will give Gideon another chance with her
- Most of the show’s events are fine as-is under this new context, and future Gideon is comedically shocked that his plan backfired by killing his past self and letting his weakest minion take over
- The two Ramonas team up to fight future Scott, destroying Gideon’s mind chip and turning him not-evil again
- Future Scott and Ramona have a heart-to-heart and realize how much they still need each other. They go back to their own time and let their past selves start their relationship anew
