#(the kid grew on him okay?)

[triglycercule]

nightmare viewing the murder time three as little toys but more in like a little spoiled kid kinda way. because it would be funny and if you take into the account that he was like 6 before getting corrupted and do some mental loopholes it would be even funnier. like these are his dolls (killer dust and horror) and this is their barbie dreamhouse (his castle). they all have to stay in one room because nightmare needs to keep his toys in a toy box. the toys only ever come out when he wants to play but oh damn it they keep on breaking out!! silly toys,,, and then he locks them into the room again.

nightmare serves them food with plastic tea cups and plastic plates and there is no food. there is no tea. they have to imagine the food because dolls can't literally eat. there are food containers and stuff in the house but its all just a bunch of empty boxes. horror starts tweaking out after he scavenges the kitchen and finds a cereal box and milk carton that have NOTHING in it (why keep empty boxes?????)

they have to go where he wants them to go. nightmare gets to dress them up in whatever he wants because theyre his dolls they can wear anything he wants. it gets incredibly embarrassing when the trio is forced to wear pink pretty dresses and fight like that. or they have to go around the castle doing stupid fucking roleplays and it gets weird because theyre being forced to reenact a bullying scene and nightmare's giving them the death stare if they don't get it right (is this projection. this must be some form of coping mechanism dust theorizes)

and then you know nightmare's not exactly the best toy owner so he loses a few of his dolls here and there. maybe they get destroyed when he was playing a bit too rough with them! (killer dies in battle for like the 29th time) but its okay because he can just go back on down to the store (something new) and buy. wait no. steal another doll and then put it back in his dreamhouse and BOOM he has a full set again!! so sweet so cute. his dolls don't have consciousness what are you talking about theyre begging to be let go?? that's all just your imagination. what do you mean you're asking about the several slowly dying bodies with removed arms or legs in his dungeon. oh that's just where the broken but not yet destroyed toys go dw theyre fine its humane

the thing i love about bill cipher is that even after i've learned all of this stuff about him, seen him at the most vulnerable he'll ever get, seen him at his most innocent, i still can't give a flying fuck about trying to justify his actions. yes he's traumatized, yes he was twisted into what we know today, and while it gives a semblance of context to why he did what he did, it doesn't matter. he still ruined ford's life. he still drove and baited multiple humans to suicide. he still tormented every human he saw as his ticket out of the consequences of his own actions. he still took delight in his actions. he was willing to commit genocide for fuck's sake!!! (freezing all of the humans into statues). trying to explain away what he did does not get rid of what he did, but it certainly puts it in perspective. you won't be catching me being a bill apologist any time soon <3

h-how do you ever finish any of your work? genuine question because you seem to be productive despite your agreste syndrome and I need to learn your ways. but also how do you ever finish any of your work

unclear. last night i stayed up and finished a report worth 25% of my grade at about 5am, arrived on time for my 9am lecture, and spent about half of it zoned out while thinking about seventeen year old emilie agreste. and i was one of the most active participants in the class discussion

I bet when Silver was very small he just called Malleus by name but eventually someone told him that they’re supposed to address him with a title and he stopped and Malleus, whose whole thing is that his status and strength have prevented him from forming meaningful attachments with most people and he feels isolated because of it, went home and didn’t come out of his room for three days.

i do not enjoy harry potter anymore and even when i did, snape was not a character i ever liked, but for some reason my ‘for you’ page is just full of dedicated snape stan accounts and i hate it

the first time de-aged!bruce mentions harvey the batfam give him blank stares. he, as one does, immediately assumes the worst and asks alfred if he's dead. alfred is like ?? no he got married, retired, and moved far, far away from gotham lol. bruce is immediately flabbergasted as to why he has never introduced his children to his Uncle Harvey, promises to introduce them, and promptly tells them many unhinged stories.

the batfam don't quite know if they /want/ to meet him

okay but Sirius who has a blind spot the size of Russia for Regulus. Like, guys it's not his fault if he's supporting Voldemort, it's our family's. It's not his fault if he's turning into a Death Eater, it's because of who he's hanging out with. It's not his fault if he's getting sucked into a blood purist cult, it's because he's too soft, too kind, too naive, too stupid to push back against what they've been taught. He's a good person at heart, Sirius swears, and makes excuses.

But also, Regulus having an equally Russia-sized blind spot for Sirius. It's not his fault if he's getting distant, it's because he's alone in Gryffindor without support. It's not his fault if he's questioning everything they know is true, it's because of his so-called friends. It's not his fault if he's becoming a blood traitor, it's because of the mudbloods and the half-breeds and the blood traitors and fucking Potter. Regulus arguing with his parents for the first time because they can't disown Sirius it's just letting them win and we can't let them keep Sirius.

Sirius distancing himself more and more from his family the more hateful Regulus gets (look at what they're doing to his brother!) and Regulus growing into more and more of a blood purist the more Sirius distance himself (they're stealing his brother, they need to get rid of them!).

And neither of them realizes it either.

Akane keeps saying she could follow Aqua to hell if that's where he goes... It's a line that gets quite emphasized in my opinion, it stands out a lot

I made a few analyses, including this one, where I came to a conclusion that what Hikaru has with Ai could parallel/be a combination of what Aqua has with Kana and Akane. This manga is very good in terms of setting character relationships.

And seeing how things are, Hikaru seems like HE'S actually going to be dragged off to hell(sigh..;;;)

Do you think Ai would do the same for HER boyfriend? Personally, I don't think she has to(she's suffered plenty and whatever mess Hikaru's become if he really has, isn't her responsibility) and I see her being pretty stern about what's right and wrong. She's a smart and responsible bean, so I don't think she'll go to hell WITH him... she'll not be his accomplice when he does something wrong, she'd try to call him out or drag him out of it, bring him to his senses, call him out. That's how I picture her. So if only Ai was alive...I don't see him having gone down the wrong path. Ai was his light. His support, the way Akane was to Aqua, but also his guiding light and hopes for the future the way Kana is for Aqua. No wonder he'd lost all his light and nobility upon her death. He just didn't have any hope to go on.

I see her waiting for him though. I don't quite see her abandoning him either. If he has to be in hell forever... I see her waiting for him forever.

I see Hikaru having that approach if Ai were to be in hell though, that's, in a way, maybe exactly what he was trying to do. Like how Izanagi descended into hell(yomi) to bring his wife back to life, I bet he tried. But unlike Izanagi who gave up and escaped, then cleansed himself of the contamination he got upon his journey, it may be that guy just fully absorbed all the filth and contamination and sank; he is devoted, I'd say that..; but I wonder just what moral they want to give by making his life this terrible, all full of suffering... He did not start out as someone who deserved this kind of fate. He literally was beaming with happiness when he found Ai to be with. And now he brings misfortune to everyone around him?; The real fatale isn't Ai but this guy. Fatal is the masculine form of Fatale. That's why the song's name is that. Ai and him are so similar in terms of having subconsciously brought misfortune to those around them without the intent to.

Yep. Just wrote this down on a whim~

Me when I see a byler take or fanfiction which turns Will into a doormat and gives the entire premise of his character arc and troubles to Mike:

God au

Roger treated Finn the same way he treated buggy and shanks, this developed a bit of a tomboyish personality.

Rayleigh also tried so hard to be a Girl Dad, got her dolls and tea sets and dresses full of pockets, tried to use a mix of the few female crewmembers and women from various islands to show her more female influence, but Finn was Finn and Rayleigh got that but he kinda wanted an excuse to do daddy-daughter things

IM NEVER GONNA STOP THINKING ABOUT ZICAH AUAGHHGHJHGH IM ON MY REREAD OF BOOK TWO AND LIKE, ITS VERY OBVIOUS THEYRE WARMING UP TO EACHOTHER

Their entire conversation from pages 156-157 BUT THISBIS MY FAVORITE EXERPT FROM IT

“Zed was out of his depth. He was cold, and lonely, and very afraid.

‘Please’ he rasped. ‘Please just leave me alone.’

Micah’s smirk faltered. He opened his mouth, then closed it and cleared his throat. ‘Listen, you’re going to be all right. I’ve seen that moldy fireball of yours take out worse than a few mummified elves. And that was without Frond babysitting you.’”

Foster WAS right, Micah DOES stop Zed from getting too angsty

And later on page 263 Zed defends him

“‘I’ll say,’ said Jett. ‘When the gods were handing out brains and Micah went for his share, they told him, ‘Sorry that girl who was just here took the last of them.’

They all chuckled at that, except for Zed, who said ‘Aw, he means well.’”

LIKE AUGHHGH

It’s so obvious to me that book 1 was like, Micah subconsciously crushing on Zed and consciously he was like “ok I’m gonna ignore that and push him and those feelings away because thinking about him all the time is ODD” and then in book 2 he’s trying to look out for him in his own Micah-way and actually warming up to him

I just want you to know that in my brain I view the people behind the blogs I follow as their pfp. So in my brain you are Nolan snitching on himself.

You caught me I’m indeed Nolpats!

Tho what’s fitting about this, is my pfp is a young Nolan with what seems to be a veggie straw up his nose, and we all know how he was in his adolescence years… he was definitely the kind of dumbass that would snitch on himself.
