Okay. Since we're going over all the takes on Mr. X at this point.. What if his powers really don't have a backside. What if (the state of) his normal life is the backside.
What if his normal life is akin to that of heroes where he has to pretend to be something he's not and follow rules that the people who control his life came up with to further their own goals. What if he can only be free of other people's beliefs and expectations when he's a hero.
What if in reality he truly is like everyone else. The other heroes. The ordinary people. All those who work themselves to the bone, who are tired and overworked and sick of all the exploitation...
What if when he's in the form of the number one hero.. when he becomes the most sought after product on the hero market..
Is when he gains the freedom to truly be himself
#to be hero x#tbhx#hero x#considering one of the first things they revealed to us in the trailers was that he's a white-collar worker...#we definitely need to think about that if we wanna try to predict / guess what he's actually like#this thing feels very lin ling coded but lin ling is tbhx coded (introduction to the main themes of the show)#so I feel like my best prediction rn is that he's actually the other side of the same damn coin#(cue the coin flip clip from the opening *coughs*)#I think from a writing perspective the whole downside thing is based on a characters perception#so if the writers make us think that X is an omnipresent all powerful god#then it just makes sense to reverse it by revealing that the opposite is equally as true#and then he'd have an even stronger incentive to want to break the system cuz both of his lives would've been defined by exploitation#maybe not the bright side of X (at least not after he became No. 1) but I don't think being the best product makes him no longer a product#ACTUALLY#“bright side” was supposed to refer to his hero identity bc of the black & white switch he has going on but#yeah calling his normal self the “dark side of X” would definitely reinforce the idea that it's the not so good parts he hides#and we've not much of normal X yet (other than his sugar stealing. you go boy exploit the company back for sugar. I believe in you) but!#we all know there's darker times coming. right.#I don't think they're gonna reveal his normal life to have a sad backstory or Idk (there's gonna be enough of that elsewhere anyways haha)#but we've definitely only seen the top of the iceberg for now#btw yes I do think capitalism & the CEOs are gonna be the real villains#and X is probably playing their game to win#yes all along you were reading my “X is actually anti-capitalist” propaganda#we're gonna go free heroes (at a cost) :))#ice demon talks#tbhx theories#tbhx analysis

#and so started my personal joke of komaeda being sayaka 2 (yes I know they're quite different but this was chapter 1 and I love Maizono)#danganronpa#makoto naegi#hajime hinata#sayaka maizono#nagito komaeda#well yes they are quite different but they also both befriend and are liked by the player character in chapter 1#then decide their personal hangup is stronger than their feelings of connection to the player character#resulting in a betrayal#but also. you ever think about how naegi remembers maizono so fondly because maizono died?#and that her last action before death was a hint to help him?#bc if she survived otherwise he'd instead have to face the fact he trusted and was betrayed#so shoutout to komaeda living out that universe for hinata#and really the only reason he survived was bc imposter/luck. and in another universe he could have died and left hinata#with less a sense of betrayal and more a sense of loss#so yeah. komaeda is maizono 2 but with more problems To Me#or at least until later in the game where he gets worse in a way maizono wouldn't#dr playthrough doodles#my art

it doesnt need to be said but its genuinely so funny how at-the-hip charles and erik are in krakoa like they really had the green light- the OBLIGATION- to be as obnoxiously close to each other as possible and abused that right to the fullest extent
#xmen#xmen comic#krakoa#cherik#snap chats#until the divorce of course but until then its actually so funny#how you really couldnt go a page or two without one or the other and the other one was close behind#ice climber ass duo over here. the delightful children from down the lane kind of proximity what the fuck was their PROBLEM#i feel like if one of them was teleported the other would just materialize right next to them thats how close they were#fuuuck what was the issue where sabretooth and co are in like. Brain Prison or something#and victor imagines charles but everyones like 'wait its weird if its just him where's magneto'#ITS SO FUCKING FUNNY and i NEED to know what issue that was .... to add it to my collection ....#also killed me how in immoral x-men issue 1 charles was yappin bout erik bein gone#and- God Bless Who i forget i think it was hope- was just 'can you please shut up about your dead boyfriend im begging you'#moira stronger than me if i had to deal with thing 1 and thing 2 on a daily basis i woulda snapped sooner frankly#ig when you live ten times through The Most Bullshit ever youre numb to most things but still. my god theyre so obnoxious#sorry im cackling at the bit in HoX where charles is about to announce krakoa to the world and erik's putting his hand on his shoulder#and you justs see moira in the back like dawgggg right in front of her .... can you two get a room#GENUINELY no im GENUINELY surprised they dont share a bedroom#im not even talking sharing a bed im taking my shipper goggles off im actually baffled they dont sleep in the same building#obvi id be lyin if i said i didnt love it tho To Be Real .. genuinely love seein them work together as a team .. until they werent </3#in every timeline they WILL divorce each other that's just the rule. actual canon event it cannot be changed or stopped its integral#ok ramble over. but not really not in spirit cause ill never be over this ill die before i am#im gonna go eat now i think i think thats something i As A Human has to do at least once a day

Relationship envy except I envy the bond between iconic fictional characters Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson
#their relationship is so beautifully made#your honor they're everything to me#it doesnt even matter if you view them platonically or romantically#you cant deny the love they have for each other#the way that watson writes about holmes is just full of love and admiration#even though holmes doesnt express his feelings in the same way#he still loves him more than anything#as seen in 3GAR and DEVI#they both love each other so much#they both strengthen each other you see#they protect each other#they're a team#they each bring something unique to the table#but it doesnt feel like one is inferior to the other#at least not to me#traditional relationships always make me feel like someone is inferior/weaker than the other#holmes is smarter intellectually and he's stronger physically#but watson has the emotional intelligence#they balance each other perfectly#theyre PARTNERS in every sense of the word#and i want a relationship like theirs#i feel like traditional gender roles and stuff limit me from having a real relationship like this#as a girl#im expected to be weaker and softer#i mean even sherlock holmes says women are weaker#for gods sake#i feel like i will never achieve this level of equal partnership with a man#sherlock holmes#john watson#holmes/watson

So I went back and watched Rogue One the day after Andor season 2 ended, and what was interesting is that I don't think anything's actually changed for me about it just because of Andor.
I liked Andor, quite a lot, despite my criticisms of season 2, I actually do really like the show in general and there's so much about it that is so intensely compelling.
But I chose to start watching Andor long before the wonderful reviews started coming out because I already liked both Rogue One and Cassian as a character. I was a big Rebelcaptain shipper after Rogue One, and I generally consider Rogue One to be my favorite Star Wars film and had seen it more than once before Andor was released.
And so regardless of how much I like Andor, it doesn't really have any major impact on the feelings I already had for Rogue One. It can't really make me like the character or the film all that much more than I already did. Rogue One existed for years before Andor, it was my favorite Star Wars film without any of the extra context that Andor provided, so it doesn't NEED Andor or its context or its narrative to make me feel a lot of emotions about it. It's also already a tragedy that, in part, banks quite a lot on you knowing that these characters don't die for nothing and that their sacrifices ultimately do lead to the downfall of the Empire and the destruction of the Death Star.
They win. They don't get to see it, but they win. THAT'S where the emotion of the film already comes from, and we have just enough information about everyone in that main group to really feel that (we know what the cause means for Cassian, we know he's "lost everything", we know he feels like he's been fighting since he was a very young child, we know that Bodhi was convinced to turn against the Empire and "do right by himself" and chose to be brave even if it took his life, we know that Baze and Chirrut had to watch everything they'd dedicated their life to be destroyed and figure out how to exist in that world afterward, we know what Jyn lost and how she was abandoned by the person who was supposed to care for her).
So, yeah, I don't know, I don't think my understanding of Rogue One has really changed, the way I feel about it and its characters hasn't really changed. Many of my feelings about Andor DID come from how I felt about Rogue One, but Rogue One came first and so those feelings exist independently of what I feel about Andor, whereas Andor for me has never existed without Rogue One and so a lot of the feelings I have about it ARE tied up in what I feel about the movie.
#star wars#andor#rogue one#sw andor#star wars andor#cassian andor#jyn erso#like mon mothma and cassian barely interact with each other in rogue one#there's obviously no indications of much of a personal history between the two of them#so there's nothing directly there that gives me any real emotions because it wasn't intended to make me emotional when it was filmed#they're not particularly emotional scenes#if rogue one had been written second or if i'd seen andor first then i think i might be bringing a lot of different emotions to those scene#EDIT: this is a lie there was one thing that i had slightly different feelings about post andor#and it's bail organa walking into the light in that first meeting to the sound of the force theme behind him#but tbh i had stronger feelings about it because i DIDN'T like what andor did with bail organa so it was nice to see my real boy#and know that rogue one at least understood bail organa the way i do#however i have liked that scene before i just didn't have quite as strong of a feeling about it as i do now#so uh. thanks andor. i guess.

cc Donnie wearing the others' hoodies is so cute I need more of it
i think its partially a smell thing and also the fact that theyre pretty much all too big on him (although even his own are, at least at first). when he's not wearing his battle shells (and for cc!donnie, i think he alternates between really long periods of refusing to take it off and times where putting it on feels just as triggering) even some of mikey's hoodies will dwarf him because they're built for larger shells than what he has.
sometimes he cant bare to be around them but he needs them more than anything, so that's the way he handles it. on worse days it's the closest thing he can really get to a hug from them, even if he can be around them otherwise, and they're happy to provide where they can. they'll never hesitate to reach back when he reaches out first.
honestly, it might be a new behavior of his, because i couldnt actually see donnie doing it beforehand. mikey was definitely the hoodie thief of the family (leo strikes me as the type to steal clothes too, but less comfy clothing and more things he thinks are good stylistically. which mostly means he steals from donnie's wardrobe because he's got an actual sense of style and their sizes can be similar, for the clothes built for his battle shell lol), donnie could provide for himself and generally found his few hoodies comforting enough. they were always a little sterile and smelled exactly how he wanted them to. they'd probably go out of their way to get one of them if donnie needed it, so he'd have no reason to wear their clothes or anything.
but that's different now. it's a gesture of comfort from them that he needs more than anything, because he'd have never taken from them like that when they were cursed. he can look down and put the pieces back together when he cant think straight-- and more importantly, they smell like home and family, while his regular hoodies mostly just smell like laundry detergent and fabric softener lmfao.
#ask#canary continuity#i feel like saying its a smell thing feels weird but also softshells are at least theorized to have a keener nose than *dogs*#a lot of turtles do actually#im sure this would factor into their behavior a little. like donnie would find strong smells extremely overwhelming already#which might make the closet worse actually. oops!#but i also think it means it's a sense that contributes a lot to like. his life. actually it'd be cool to poke around with the idea of-#-it interacting with his autism. it could be a leading cause of migraines for him#also the smell of blood is like.... oppressive and overwhelming. from what ive heard in the aftermath of violent trauma#its a very common trigger. the stench of it. for donnie who's sense of smell is so much stronger im sure it'd be even worse#honestly a very good reason for the garden too. and it being like everywhere in the new lair#it being noticeably so different is a good thing to kinda snap him back to reality

Adam's turn... <3
I really like doing portraits like this... if they didn't take so long I'd do them way more
#seriously each of these took like 5 hours LOL#it was really hard to get them to match too#cause steve is so like. rough. and has a lot more textures going on in his skin and beard and stuff?#so it's really easy to trick the brain into being like “woag thats detailed and feels real”#versus adam is extremely smooth and well kept#so it's a loooot harder to get them to feel like...#on the same level#while still being in the same style#so it took at least an hour of futzing#maybe 2 LOL#to get them to feel on the same level of detail and in the same style!!!#ok enjoy#portrait#illustration#digital art#my art#adam#time and time again#ttawebcomic#also I will DEFINITELY be uploading their two portraits side by side like... at some point#so#idk dont 'be on the lookout' for that#but I think it makes like a stronger post so definitely expect to see these a few times#I mean it took me like 10+ hours to draw them YOURE SEEIN EM OKAY

see i wonder how, if at all, frank being a girl would have affected the relationship with grandma zhang. would she have been even harsher on her granddaughter, knowing women have to work twice as hard, run twice as fast? held her to even higher impossible standards? or would she have seen her daughter, frank's mother, in her... and maybe been softer, more affectionate?
#frank zhang#grandma zhang#bet's on the first one btw.#i think she would have known that frank has to be even tougher. even stronger.#buuut there's also no discounting the second option...#grandma held a lot of love for emily... seeing how her own daughter turned out might change her view of things.#or at least inspire feelings of weakness.#this would be easier to answer if we knew exactly how gma raised emily#its somewhat implied it was similar to how she treated frank but never anything detailed i dont think#anyway frank would be like 5x crazier if she were a girl.#heroes of olympus#riordanverse

In your professional educated psychology opinion. why is cherik Like That
i cannot give a Professional educated psychological opinion until at least may but as far as i can tell queer people cant be normal bout anything so thats why theyre like that
#snap chats#if i wanted to tbh i prob could do a Genuine Overview of Why Theyre Like That from a character study standpoint#not like the series aint givin me crumbs ...... obligatory 309 mention Do We Get Why Thats My Favorite Issue Now#its literally charles being his own therapist with erik as his mouthpiece. weird ass psychosexual episode like my god#this what i mean when i say queer people cant be normal cause whats that for...#idc if you explained it to me as erik being the embodiment of everything charles hates about himself#see now i wanna reread it but i left the issue at my moms !!!!!! im going back tomorrow for the weekend at least... i can read it then...#im still standing in astoundment...#and when charles said he became obsessive with finding other mutants after meeting erik#oh girl your break up was MESSY messy .... dare i say rebound era ...#charles you cant fill the void like that ......#anyway im gonna be sick now that im thinking of Iconic Cherik Things again i have made myself sick thinking of them#fym your feelings for erik was stronger than falling in love Kill Yourself PLEASE#ok ill stop. ill go now.#ask me this question again like four months idk im not a doctor and i never will be#should i go clinical just so i can pull a lorna and remind everyone of my phd every other day#very funny in theory but too expensive of a joke i fear and while i love a good joke My God.

many things i have been keeping under wraps at work, such as pronouns, but also, very critically, age. bc i got that ageless mixed race asian swag where i am very clearly not an undergrad but also??? they just don't know. and it WHIPS and it is so funny to ME because all the managers and shift supervisors are like damn this girl in her mid-twenties is so easy to talk to, it's like talking to a peer. surprise bitch i'm older than you. and maybe this means i'm performing psychological experiments on cis men, but i am ngl if i hand you a two page resume that you don't read, it is simply none of MY business if you think i am in my mid-20s. they are going to be so mad when they find out lmao
#mild work crush i fear....his undefinable possibly autistic certainly overworked jock swag has captured the nation#i can't remember if he was the one who jumpscared the managers by just randomly showing up with a wife and baby one day#when they thought he was a confirmed bachelor#it might have been the other shift supervisor who hates talking to people#it def wasn't the business school supervisor bc that guy is tasing himself recreationally while getting an mba. idiot <3#i love my job it is so boring and so entertaining at the same time. it's like the perfect balance of annoying and enriching#i wrote an entire fic at work once. and was still able to do everything i needed to do. and heard an absolutely bananas story#from the housekeeper about suing the city#i love the housekeeper every 3rd word out of her mouth i'm like ma'am are we allowed to say that in 2025 😭#i wish i could work there forever but i cannot. and when i quit the fic and/or zine i write/make about is going to go CRAZYYYYY#i think i text like 5-8 different people at least once a week about stupid shit i witnessed at work and the hot guys also#cannot forget the hot guys. so many hot guys. and they are all so stupid and annoying and sometimes charming also#i wish i could wear shorts to work bc my ass looks great rn from strength training#unfortunately my uniform is athleisure wear that doesn't fit and a free flyers sweatshirt that also doesn't fit lmao#when i learn to dress myself. it's over for you hoes#was talking to my strength trainer this week bc they asked if they could use me as a case study for trauma informed something#i kind of wasn't listening bc i just started talking immediately about the emotional effects of not having severe chronic back pain#and now being stronger has made me at its very base just more confident and kind to myself (inasmuch as i'll ever be)#bc i know my body better and i'm not scared of it and i can predict how it moves and i can trust it in ways i could not before#just from not knowing it? like even beyond the chronic pain i just did not know how my body moved and what it was capable of#& how one thing that is so silly but so nice is the feeling of being attractive as MYSELF for the first time in my life and not just#a vehicle for everyone to project whatever weird mpdg stuff on. and it's NICE and it's FUN that i know how my body moves as itself!!#like idk is finding confidence in my body the poetry. the strength training. the being in my 30s. the being too tired to care anymore#WHO KNOWS. none of my business#in conclusion. i would love to say i haven't been having a five stage mental breakdown all week but i have but i think it finally resolved#and now i have a new bed courtesy of sierra and kelly!!!!#and after i find out how much i owe in 1st/last month's rent? it's cricut time#ok good night#fresno oilers.txt

I personally always hold a character's original story or writing higher than things after. I still consider them, but if things contradict than whatever was in the original usually comes out on top
#PUT THE JAYBIN FLASHBACK PANEL DOWN#anyway my recommended reading for jason is uh. near all 80s batman comics and then judd winick's writing#i atm cant put the jaybin reading recommendation any shorter but the least i can say is dont JUST read his desth and the garzonas case#jason is intentionally out of character leading up to his death + jim starlin didnt like him#and if youve read dick robin be prepared for him to act like robin. (esp if youre reading the barr davis neary ones ive heard)#(barr is the writer iirc but barr davis neary is how i remember it because the author n art were often connected in that case)#(if you see a screenshot or panel of a small cute squishy 80s jaybin thats barr davis neary)#hes not the angry robin but hes also Not Really a happy robin. just chillin. and being a person that cant be defined by one emotion#i stand by considering pre crisis important reading. at least for you to get a better feel of him. he died pretty soon after the retcon#i do think he doesn't have much strong character going on. i struggle to describe him at times#when you first get to tim after awhile of jaybin he immediately has a stronger presence so to say#but back to the dick thing. if you dont like jason being a copy of dick i dont think youre gonna like jason point blank#hes kinda. often compared to dick. and is not allowed a different hero identity. +implied not allowed to change the costume#i like to use this as a base for adult jason copying people/wearing other heros costumes/ and never really having his OWN identity#bruce kinda fucked him up imo. but imo. we going out of cleary stated territory#and i do know now that im putting the quilt man fight on the list tho. pretend theres a list#and the titans crossovers of course#jason todd
