what is the theory that ivan manipulated the event where till and mizi met the wagyein?
It's not a theory, actually! It's confirmed that Ivan orchestrated the whole event. The true reason as to why however is still unknown. The information provides more context to this scene, though:
During the earlier times of ALNST the most rational explanation for this scene was that Till ran after a flower crown (presumably Mizi's) and Ivan followed him in out of curiosity. Now we know that Ivan was conveniently just standing there because he was waiting.
Side note, I find it heartbreaking (and maybe a little funny, sorry) that Till most likely didn't notice Ivan in this scene. That's just like him, isn't it. Always too busy running after Mizi while Ivan trails behind, an ever-present shadow.
I'm not sure how Ivan manipulated the circumstances for both of them to end up there, but it is confirmed that everything was intentional. What strikes me most is how they describe this particular scene:
I can't copy down what they said word-for-word (Patreon info), but they described Ivan watching "creepily" as Till and Mizi are faced with danger. We know that Ivan was familiar with the Cerberus wagyein beforehand, enough to touch its teeth and even to rest himself inside its maw. To Ivan, the wagyein is not dangerous, but to Till and Mizi, it could be. Ivan prepared the wagyein, led them there, and watched "creepily" from afar as Till fell on his knees, seemingly injured.
The closest I can get to making sense of Ivan's "scheme" is that he wanted to see how other children would react in a dangerous situation. Ivan's always been an observer, after all, and he's learned to survive by copying the more "normal" behaviors of his peers. This situation occured when Ivan was still young and had not yet developed his more charming mask, so perhaps he staged this encounter to study a situational response, to learn and mimic the emotion of fear. And what better subjects for the experiment than two of the most expressive and reactive humans of their batch? It helps that he was already fixated on Till beforehand, too. I think Ivan became irreversibly obssessed after this incident, especially since it's framed as a turning point in Ivan's life, comparing Till to the stars.
This is just my attempt at an interpretation, though. It could very well be for another reason. He most likely chose Till and Mizi specifically for personal reasons, not just for reaction. I'm still not sure on the purpose behind the whole thing.
The team wanted to capture Ivan's "dark emotions" through the shot of his stalking, which could relate to his more sinister intentions. His gaze can be read in a few different ways, though. Curiosity, interest, fear, etc. Maybe that's why they decided to redraw the shot in ROUND 6.
I think this better sells the feeling they were trying to convey.
#ivan u fucked up little guy.#also okay i just wanna clear this up#i know i make a lot of posts about ivans darker side and his more problematic traits#but this isn't me trying to villainize him or reduce him down to “toxic yaoi”#I HOPE YOU GUYS KNOW ALL MY TOXIC YAOI POSTS ARE LIGHTHEARTED.#i just want to clarify that ivan was always intended to be a darker and complicated character. even since his debut in round 3#the way i refer to ivan (“twisted” “creepy” “obssessive” etc) are literally the direct words used by q and v themselves to describe him#but despite that id like to emphasize that i don't see ivan as a villain or a completely bad person. hes complicated#there is no normalcy in this world they are living in. none of the characters know what being truly normal is#this isn't me condoning his actions#but it has to be acknowledged that alnst is fucked up in nature. we can't expect perfect relationships from people who are born to die#plus ivan has a lot more layers past the “dark” parts. he's constantly battling himself and his desires#especially at the end of round 6 where he performs a myriad of conflicting actions (kiss strangle peck smile)#thanks to the r6 production notes we now know that ivan was going through a rapid internal conflict#“sure and unsure at the same time”#there is sooo much to ivan. his low self-esteem. his desire and possessiveness despite knowing till will never love him#his VEHEMENT insistence that till will never love him vs his desperate persistence in trying anyway#uh i need to shut up i think#anyways sorry. just wanted to clarify my thoughts on him in case people think im. yk.#in short. hes a fucked up little freak and he fascinates me. this poor tragic child. i love him.#SORRY I GOT CARRIED AWAY#alnst#alien stage#alien stage ivan#alnst ivan#asks

But like hypothetically if I decided to make a series of YouTube video breaking down and rambling about how I think the first year trio encompass the full gradient scale of what it means to be “morally good” and how by the end of the series they have grown exponentially but their moral inner workings are so entrenched in who they are they never needed to change they just became more of who they already were.
Because initially Yuuji wants to save the world in that abstract way all heroes do, Megumi is only interested in saving those he can save and Nobara is only interested in those she wants to save. And all these are treated as morally valid by the narrative and not really flaws in need of changing but instead philosophies in need of refining and understanding.
Because Jujutsu Society as a whole encourages and thrives off a moral apathy or superiority, they are in the business of killing curses not saving lives and that ultimately raises the question of if you’re going out there everyday killing curses and inadvertently saving lives does it really matter the reason why? Or the morality behind it? Maybe not to you but to the society, maybe.
So anyway, hypothetically ….would you be hypothetically interested👀
#this is me testing the waters of interest#I’ve been really toying with the idea of making a “the psychology of trilogy for these three for such a long time#but unfortunately I am a creature of procrastination#their moral philosophies and the spectrum they encompass is just so interesting to me#especially because yuuji who arguably has the most selfless philosophy is the only one constantly questioned on it#and having to reshape what the idea of it means to him and he more or less still comes up on the same side just slightly to the left#but I think for him now it’s more than some abstract promise to his grandfather to protect those that need protection#now it’s seeing the worst the world has to give the way people seem to be doomed by the narrative they were born in#and deciding to fight for them anyway#It’s why even after everything he still offers sukuna the chance to have another go round#a chance for a life filled with something more than curses#I don’t think the Yuuji at the beginning of jjk would have understood or done that.#Yuuji’s whole arc is kinda about becoming more of who you already were cracks and all.#don’t even get me started on my girl nobara#hopefully November will be my month#watch out world Kacie YouTube incoming#jjk#throwing thoughts to the void#jujutsu kaisen#nobara kugisaki#itadori yuuji#yuuji itadori#megumi fushiguro#fushiguro megumi#kugisaki nobara#nobara#yuuji#jjk megumi#jjk yuji#itafushikugi

@bobafish, re:
#please elaborate on courf's temper 👀👀#tbh I hadn't heard that before
OK! :D these are just Thoughts about him character wise and not like...deep XD
to be clear I don't think Courfeyrac has a BAD temper, I don't think he's a screamy scary guy who blows his top all the time! I want to make that clear; Courfeyrac is clearly A Delight and a charmer.
I do think he has a quick temper, though--quick like a firecracker, where it flares up and dies back in a blink, and , usually ,doesn't do any harm. Two main points make me think this: 1- the Charter Torching Scene. He's just talking with Combeferre, who he knows fundamentally agrees with him, but he gets so worked up about the existence of the Charter itself that he has to throw it in the fire. This is fine! It's a stupid pamphlet none of them need, he's being Dramatic and it's very funny-- but it's definitely not a Relaxed Easygoing Move XD It's pretty much a summary of how I think his temper works-- he gets riled up, he makes a quick comment or gesture (in this case: Setting A Thing on Fire) and he's done. A quick temper, not a bad temper. 2- "Hold your tongue, you cask!" said Courfeyrac. (Night Falls on Grantaire) Couldn't think of any better leadup to it than that XD Courfeyrac is the first of the barricade fighters to lose his patience with Grantaire; it's not a big scene , it's just a quick "shut up" with a little extra insult, and --as I've said of Enjolras' rebuke to Grantaire in this scene-- it is fully deserved, Grantaire is being an ass in this scene. I don't think Grantaire even processes it, he just launches off in another direction. >< But he is the first person to tell Grantaire to shut up, getting exasperated with him even faster than Enjolras, who is pretty much Done with Grantaire's nonsense from the get-go.
There's also the way he's so quick with teasing, sometimes with results you know he doesn't want (like Marius avoiding him for days XD) . All of the Amis are pretty jokey, but Courfeyrac's noted by the narrative to be particularly fast on the draw with a nickname or a bit of a jab.
Again I hasten to say I don't think this makes him a Terrible Person-- I actually kinda roll my eyes at the level of Offense some people take off him -- but I think it's a little piece of characterization that separates him from Legle's more monologuing style of puns, or Grantaire's ...whatever the heck Grantaire is doing XD Courfeyrac gets associations with fire, for his warmth, and sometimes even a nice well contained fire can send out a spark that makes someone yelp; and he gets compared with cats and kittens, and sometimes even a very sweet cat will catch someone with its claws in passing- or on purpose, now and then .
(I bet he can be absolutely brutal when he wants, but that's reserved for people who have it coming. Like Rousseau. Kick his ghostly ass, Courfeyrac.)
#Courfeyrac talk#thank you for letting me ramble <3people who ask about Other People's Headcanons make the world go round#tbh I struggle a bit with Courfeyrac#so well rounded and well adjusted#how am I supposed to relate to that XD#him having a little flashpan temper makes him stand out a bit in a good way to me#TRAGICALLY he'll probably mellow as he gets older#which definitely that's what he's gonna do. get older.#THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS

Kohane’s kindness on full display here since she was intending to give it back to Watanuki as a Just In Case, even though like. The Most Useful Time for Watanuki to have that balloon has already passed. And it was excellent as a narrative swerve.
I think if there’s another Big Moment for Watanuki it will probably take more than luck to keep him around. (But maybe an Egg will help????)
(Also I wonder if that means she knows that Something Is Still Coming Up for Watanuki)
Either way probably more immediately useful for Kohane's mother, who will probably need the good luck in coming back from the depths of where she ended up. It’s almost sad that Kohane never actually considers using it for herself, but on the other hand I suppose her life has already improved drastically from where it once was, so maybe she feels like she doesn’t actually need it.
But that aside I’m LIVING for the look Doumeki gives Watanuki at the end there. Especially because Self Preservation has NOT been Watanuki’s strong point, ever, and Doumeki is very much dedicated to changing that. He would probably wrap Watanuki entirely in balloons if he could.
We know what Watanuki means by that but oh that would be setting off alarm bells for Doumeki. Who, as we were just saying, is very much dedicated to trying to keep Watanuki around even though Watanuki is sometimes very invested in doing the opposite.
It’s a very KuroFai parallel all things considered.
#Which we FULLY endorse#Alexa play Careless Whisper#Not liveblogging the reservoir chronicle#xxxholic 83#xxxholic#Watanuki#Doumeki#Kohane#The KuroFai dynamic makes the world go round#Also THE DELICATE BALANCE at play here#As Watanuki opens up and says something very close to his heart#But can only do it while looking away#and pretending to be nonchalant#Because if he saw Doumeki's reaction to what he said it would be Too Much

Doomsday Cult Christians when the Doomsday Cult ideology causes Doomsday anxiety in their kids:
#I talked about it a lil on a different post but then I once again remember how my grandfather told me#that he believes that climate change is a thing that will harm the planet#but christians don't need to worry about it because you'll either die before it kills you and go to heaven#or you'll be protected from it and just live in the climate change ravaged world#watching the people around you suffer from it but magically being okay yourself#and he couldn't understand why that made me feel so much worse#he's also 82 so that could partially be it#and yes this is the same grandfather that made fun of me and our neighbors kid for attempting u know what#doomsday christians are so fucking terrifying#because they don't fear death in the wrong way if that makes sense#like they view this as the practice round of war before the spiritual war aka the rapture#so they feel like if people aren't suffering they aren't fighting and therefore insist on making people suffer#and the more you suffer the better heaven will feel or whatever#it's fuckin wild#even when I was a christian I was terrified of it all#ex christian#religious trauma

Hi so I’ve curious, (Been nervous about starting my own AU) When you first started posting OFH (on twitter/ao3) how did you get the courage to post it? Were you ever afraid of getting called ‘cringe’ or ‘weird’ or anything else negative? If so how were you able to get over it? (Btw I do love this AU with all my heart!) Sorry if any of these questions are too sensitive!
hi!! thanks for the questions, i'm flattered to be considered a source of wisdom about this x3
OFH/retyrement, like most fandom things i do, started as kind of a silly shitpost thing; i love human AUs, and when my buddy squid_hug made that original text post about the retirement home it tickled me too much to ignore. objectively the scrybes being human old people bickering in a retirement home is a goofy, silly idea, and that's how it started as an AU, down to the written fic. i think that in itself made it a bit easier to post about
however! even with that, when i started posting the first pieces of art it was definitely a "do it scared" situation lmao; i don't remember where i heard this, but in some cases it takes even more courage to do something new when you're already known for something than it does to start something new with no presence at all, and that was definitely true with the retyrement AU. it was my first contribution to the fandom too! i was definitely worried it wouldn't go over well with anyone bc it was so damn niche lolol
my main piece of advice for getting over this fear (besides just doing it scared until you're not scared anymore) is to get yourself a hype squad lmao; though maybe the more accurate term would be a mutual AU ecosystem. i had squid to develop a lot of the AU with me at the start and we bounced a lot of silly ideas off of each other, and now i have a lot more folks around to crack jokes and hype each other up about our art and fics! also at the beginning i had a point where i was feeling a little self-conscious about continuing to post (the AU had a painfully small amount of engagement at the beginning lol), but as soon as i got one (1) ask saying "i wanna see more of this" i took that as my green light to get as silly with it as possible lmao
so ig my TL;DR advice is: don't take shit too seriously, remember it's all in good fun, and surround yourself with folks who enjoy funny lil AUs as much as you do! the second thing can be hard, as it involves uh, putting yourself out there in the first place, but embracing that discomfort is a necessary evil for having a good-ass time! if you can successfully kill the part of yourself that cringes then you'll never be cringe again
godspeed on your own AU endeavors, the digital world is always better for having another crazy creative alternate universe in it <3
#doot answers#retyrement au#didn't want to make an already long post even longer but#i'm also not on twitter lmao#idk what it's like over there but#i feel like the climate here on tumblr is a lot more cozy for silly AUs in general#i can't recall getting a single negative comment about the AU as long as i've been posting about it here#and the fact that it's tumblr is probably why lol#cringe is way more dead here than anywhere else on the internet methinks#also let this be a lesson to potential AU audiences as well#if you like someone's AU#drop some sick tags or a funny lil ask about how much you like it#people being interested in my stuff truly does make my world go round#and i have zero doubt that my silly AU brethren would say the same

I'd like to ask about "Rosie and Judy = 3-Parter in the Middle of Nowhere-Russia/Germany." It is making me think 👀🥺 thoughts.
lestweforget5
HI AND HELLO!!!!! thank you so much for stopping by the askbox!!! i appreciate it so so much!!! :) AND -- thank you for THIS SPECIFIC ONE!!!! *equally* thinking many (SOBS) thoughts about this specific piece as well because (what can I say) angst/whump/hurt/comfort makes the world go 'round when i write ships and couples so.....
HERE I do some rambling about this specific 3-parter piece series. I also share a snippet hehe! <3
BUT -- I definitely have some more snippets and rambling I can happily do!!! :)
I mention a bit about how Judy's past is a major influence on her sense-of-self along with how she approaches the world around her, so please enjoy this snippet!
The next time she woke was in a canvas tent - she could tell because of the scent. Despite being across an ocean, canvas still smelled the same and reminded her of home. Nights out under the stars, staring out towards darkened mountain tops, chasing fireflies, giggling and laughing, enjoying her father's raspy song voice in the midst of a shooting star, eating fresh honey her mother had canned. Days where childhood had seemed endless and limitless and she'd been so lost in the midst of it all to see the worry and stress on her parents' faces, know the truth about their situation, the lack of money - but there'd been happiness still. They'd still brought home what happiness they could've had and Judy had felt that. Canvas would always bring her back. Along with the smell of fire wood.
I think this 3-parter will highlight the past a lot (in reference to Judy's youth as the FIRST mention of the past, in reference to the actual crash of the plane as the SECOND mention of the past, and in reference to the last conversation she had with Rosie as the THIRD mention of the past) all of which are important moments and equally people/things in her life that made her who she is. AND SO WITH THAT -- I also want to mention that (and have since mentioned) that angst is my absolute most favorite thing EVER....so please....enjoy a snippet of that too hehe :)
"Rosie?" she managed out, her voice hoarse and strained, a wet cough following, followed by a searing pain that shot through the right side of her head. More hushed voices - evident confusion - despite her lack of understanding, she could make out the tone. Confusion. Distance. Hesitance. The more she got her eyes to open, blinking rapidly to get her whereabouts, she realized that not only were faces watching her intently, but the tips of each gun were pointed right at her. Judy let out another strangled cry as slowly lifted her hands away from her body, a groan escaping her lips at the pain in her right arm - it was enough to be blinding and numbing enough for her eyes to roll back in her head and her to pass out for a few moments. Coming back to it, she could hear the voices again, lost in translation, evident confusion. What was going on? Where was she? Why wasn't she in the plane? Where was Rosie? Judy strained to keep her gaze focused. "Rosie?" she tried again, only catching the frantic voices and evident glances of the soldiers above her, "Where….where's Rosie?"
BRB CRYING. Asking for Rosie, completely confused, a bit helpless, trying to keep it together without wanting to completely lose her mind (Judy Rybinski are you ME?????). Incredibly excited to intertwine this short-story of finding each other again in this mess sorta vibe and just yeah. THEM <33333
THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN!!!!!! Excited to continue both progressing and continuing to develop this! <3
ask about my WIPS! [here]
#SCREAMING SOBBING#the judy asking and looking for rosie will end me#i just know it#yeah like ..... SOMEBODY SEDATE ME#(don't even get me started on what rosie's prob doing in this moment)#(breaking his neck to look for her yeah yeah)#(listen angst makes the world go 'round i am SO EXCITED HEHE!!!!!!)#THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!#judy x rosie#judy rybinski#rosie rosenthal#silver bullets#mota writings

I don't know how this works, but here?
1. worst part of fanon?
2. common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing?
1. THE WAY PEOPLE CAN BE SO MEAN LIKE AHKFJE i know online negativity is nothing new but it’s never not annoying 😭
i feel like a lot of these people enjoy purposefully making themselves mad or arguing with those who dont agree with them for whatever reason bc it really is easy to curate ur feed and make the internet a good place for u and ur specific tastes.
and even if u see something u don’t like just … move ur finger and Scroll it’s never that serious
2. uhhh i can’t think of anything in particular but i find it rly annoying when people complain about a popular male character having a lot of female fans like dawg Who Cares ;,, girls love him ! so what ! if a character has a predominantly female fanbase then that doesn’t suddenly take away the lore or depth and i see so many men acting like it does or turning on that character 😭 people complaining abt what girls like in general especially within male dominated fandom spaces is super annoying
#girls make the world go round idk what to say !#especially within fandoms women are important#thank u nim 🩷#ask
