Consistently do not understand why people date the adults in Persona 5 (ok I understand *why* but that's like looking at joker as an insert and not a character.) because like You Fools(/J) that's his Found Family™. The P5 confidants are just Ren accidentally-on-purpose creating a found family, and sometimes a found family is a not cat, six peers with which you commit crimes, unofficial adopted hacker sister, coffee dad, gun dad, teacher who is now your Mom Aunt™, cool doctor aunt, the wine aunt, Chihaya, based politician uncle, cool lawyer sister of your one friend, your shogi peer, your found sibling gamer brother, the two magic prison twins who you've internally labelled also siblings, Igor the Puppet Dad, and this semi-feral detective we found at the TV station who's entire confidant is kinda homoerotic actually???

Tarkin: I don't believe in your old, dead religion.

Vader: And that is your mistake. You will see the power of the Force.

Hux: I don't believe in your bullshit Force.

Kylo: I LITERALLY SAW YOU MIND TRICK ANOTHER GENERAL HOW CAN YOU BE THIS FUCKING OBTUSE--

I was thinking about Fandom's Darlings recently because I encountered another case of "Yes, Your Ship Has Become Canon But At What Cost???" in the wild. Which is a mouthful, but I don't have a snappier name for these events in fandom yet.

It's when two characters get together in a story, but... their characterizations get destroyed in the process because the writers apparently 1) can't write solid romance (it's a specific skill!) and 2) also can't fit that romance into the broader story. Often, all of the supporting characters surrounding this shiny couple will ALSO suffer severe characterization damage to make this romance happen. And sometimes the larger plot and even the worldbuilding will also take hard structural hits so the story can focus on this GREAT PASSION that frankly just isn't... executed well.

Like, if a ship I dislike becomes canon, that's one thing, but if the writing for it isn't even semi-competent, that's worse!!! And the really insufferable part is actually the shippers who are not only popping bottles because their ship went canon, but will mock everyone who complains about the bad writing (or tries to earnestly analyze why exactly this conclusion sucks) as "bitter sore losers". I mean, the characters you profess to love have been turned into empty shells of themselves, the canonical partnership here is about as shallow as a puddle, and the integrity of this entire fictional world is on fire, but sure, you "won" this ship war. Congrats.

There is nothing else to do but move on, it's definitely not worth getting into it with anyone. But it REALLY sucks if you actually liked either of the characters involved or maybe even liked the ship itself, because then it's like... "I have been given an enormous cake, but it has been Poisoned. I cannot eat this, for I would choke on it. I have been Betrayed In A Fashion Most Vile." But everyone still sitting at the table tells you that you ought to be happy! At least you got some cake!

Thank you Marshal of the Central Altar for protecting me from the demons of artblock and procrastination

I compiled some Nezhas I know about. I embellished Nazha’s attire because I wanted to, tho I drew a version with more faithful attire. I wonder if Red will do a Miscellaneous Myths on him?

Avenue X on YouTube has a pretty good and comprehensive overview on Nezha for those interested in that type of video.

Please give Ren a kiss for me! 🩷

How would Ren/REDACTED react to MC falling in love with someone else and chosing to date them?

Would he get jealous but eventually accept it and let us go or would he ruin MC's relationship with that person or even kill them?

If you could go into detail about Ren's reaction and what he would do, that would be nice 👉🏻👈🏻 (No pressure ofc)

(Please remember to take breaks, eat well and hydrate!🫶🏻)

✦゜ANSWERED: Since Ren is a yandere, I think his reactions would be what most people expect ;v; He would definitely get envious over the fact that someone managed to capture Angel's attention before him, and I'm sure he'd purposefully find a way to remove their partner and get Angel to prioritise him instead.

He'd certainly get jealous as well since that person is still currently in a relationship with Angel (as opposed to them breaking up and leaving Ren with a chance), but I don't really want to go into detail about this as it's bound to happen in the game at some point and I wouldn't want to spoil anything ^^;

But you can always reference the current behaviour he displays in the demo (or some of the other posts on this blog)!!
