#In the sense that he was a very personally relatable character

[angstics]

I always thought black parade is about a horrible person who feels sorry for himself. He’s hurt people over his honor (being a soldier and all that) but I don’t see the fascism. He’s self centered and he doesn’t care if we feel sorry/happy for him but I genuinely don’t understand how that ties into fascism. I haven’t watched cabaret and maybe that’s why but to my understanding cabaret is directly affected by war but the patient isn’t. At least not when he’s in the hospital.

I feel like this is something Mcr is starting to build rather than something that has always been there? Can you explain a bit more? I feel really stupid and I love art so not understanding it hurts. I read your posts btw but yeah I don’t get it? Maybe I am stupid after all

this isnt related to intelligence at all, i dont think im reading any like Secret Messages behind black parade. everyone has their own reading of what bp means. a lot of the ideas i post are incomplete and only really make sense in my head because it caters to MY thoughts, MY experiences, MY enjoyment. i felt so jubilant about identifying the fascist imagery because i feel like it's an Underrated (not hidden) part of the black parade. but it mostly does so through APPROPRIATION and EXPRESSIONISM.

appropriation is what i mean by black parade co-opting the concept of cabaret: ignoring the world's troubles via entertainment leading to destruction inside the soul and outside in the world. cabaret is about fascism, black parade is about depression. the narrator is inside his mind, his entertaining space, self centered and self flagellating, to the detriment of his own life. by Alluding to a story about fascism, i like reading that theme into black parade as well. Expressionism is a recent development in my conception of black parade. i thought bp was APOLITICAL until i realized that the personal theme could symbolize a wider critique, the way german expressionism was a reflection of troubled, decaying society.

there are also some elements of fascistic theme within the text, but theyre milder than the overwhelming themes of self-hatred, memory etc. these elements include the overwhelming presence of war and retribution (mother war, mama, welcome, teenagers, sleep). the portraits by chris anthony read very dark to me, these military-straight, brooding, rigid characters. the destruction in the streets of the welcome music video. all elements that speak to an unnamed destructive force that must be squashed, or a need for a leader that can be a savior. the "black parade" as an army that welcomes you to valhallah. there's more to say im sure, i just havent thought about it outside the personal perspective much.

your ideas can co-exist with my ideas. there is no one true reading. this is just what i like thinking about!!

Related to the last ask about Gilded Cage, and reader finding out about Billy/what happened to Becca. How would you go about reader finding out Homelander is a rapist? Not just in that verse, but in any fic?

The only time I've seen this play out is a Homelight fic where Annie knows about what happened to Becca. But she sort of "forgives" Homie or rather choses to ignore it, because she also finds out that (in that particular story, not in canon, obviously) he was repeatedly sexually assaulted as a kid. So, she doesn't justify it, but sort of understands why he did it.

Besides that, I can't think of any story where Homie's s/o found out about what he did. Do you think it would be the end of the relationship? Would reader gaslight herself into thinking it wasn't really rape, as many women (sadly) do? I would love to hear your thoughts about it!

it's a tough topic and i don't begrudge people who choose not to address it. it's also honestly just kind of a difficult thing to work in unless homelander himself freely admits to it (won't happen) or someone like butcher tells them.

there's also a lot of dub/noncon fics where it's just. kind of a moot point. if the relationship evolves from that in the first place, they can't really "find out" that he's a rapist. they've got firsthand experience. and yeah, in that case there usually is a ton of gaslighting and rationalizing going on. this is kind of what's going on in Gilded Cage right now where feelings are developing despite the fact he's keeping her against her will, and she still doesn't know if he's done something like this (or worse) before. which... we know he has.

but i do have lots of fics where the reader has no idea the extent of his damage and what he's done, and they would be properly horrified. Guilty Pleasures is a good example of a fic where i believe this revelation would end the relationship for SURE. she would not be able to reconcile that.

honestly you could take any one of my lighter/consensual fics and follow them up with the events of The Breakup / You Let Me Complicate You, which could just as easily have been about finding out that he's a rapist. it turns into a situation where the reader wants out, and he's simply not going to let them go.

the level of consent in Say It is also extremely questionable. basically noncon early on. would the reader here be shocked to learn he's done this to someone else? no. and she's already pretty well given into his corruption by this point.

whereas the reader in Don't Fret Precious (I'm Here) is a total loon, and would very readily excuse his actions. might actually be jealous because she's just. my ultimate yandere homelander simp. but she's definitely an outlier lol

ultimately it depends on the type of story you want to tell, and what kind of person you're writing against him. it's up to the author if that particular s/o believes the information at all, or if they let themselves believe that it's a terrible lie, and that their hero would never do that. or... maybe it makes perfect, horrible sense to them, and they either can or can't live with that.

i do think it's an interesting (albeit brutal) topic and one i'm open to exploring in the future! i can see myself going down any number of these potential avenues, depending on the vibe/character personality i'm working with.

i've spoken before about how i find it kind of sad that artemy does not have much of a personality in p1... other than his strong sense of duty i honestly cannot name a single character trait he exhibits other than his quickness to violence which is not a good thing. this is clearly a product of his whole life being predetermined since the moment he was born and i think this is also why he does not have very intense personal feelings about the sacrifice he's meant to perform as it's all just duty for him, he does not have or allow himself a say in it... like to him it's more important for him finding out exactly what his father urdugh was instead of evaluating the situation with his own judgement and making a choice on his own

as for his relationship with daniil i think for artemy, daniil is the person that fills the gap of someone who tells him what to do since he does not know how to live his life otherwise. think about how daniil is your main quest giver in the haruspex route and how a lot of your main quests boil down to him asking you to do something, you doing it and then filling him in. i think this is also the reason why he insists of using honorifics to refer to daniil even after daniil switches to first name basis. he fills almost obliged to place himself in a submissive position (😏) in relation to someone.

a few days ago i defended daniil claiming i dont think he's people-smart enough as to purposefully manipulate artemy but... i think i was wrong on that to be honest. i think he knows exactly what he's doing and how easily he can get on artemy's good side again by throwing in a first name here and a mention of their bro-ship there. he knows that artemy feels duty bound to answer to his will as a friend and as a self identified inferior.

i also think it's interesting that artemy starts mentioning daniil in his journal out of the blue in the final days, even in the context of quests that daniil is not an active character in. very interesting how he's become such a central point of reference in artemy's thinking process

Okay finished the Haruspex route of Pathologic Classic! I need to play Clara's route to see the whole picture but I'm already fascinated by the differences between P1 and P2 in terms of characterization. I think I like Pathologic 2 even more now considering how they improved on Artemy's route, I am sorry to say I didn't like it at all in classic... This is all just my personal impression after first playthrough ofc. Ramblings about both Artemy and Daniil ↓ I think what bothered me about Haruspex was mostly just his attitude and his messiah plot. Once the first day is out of the way it's all smooth sailing for him, a bit too much so?? The only personal conflict he has is figuring out his father's exact wishes for him and choosing a sacrifice. Killing anyone is treated as fair or something that needed to happen and the Haruspex is always shrugging it off... And either option, Aglaya & the Town or Polyhedron... It just doesn't seem like he is that attached to either? So it doesn't feel like he is sacrificing much personally? Like sure he wants to save the Town because of his messianic qualities, but that's again more about fulfilling his 'role' rather than genuinely wanting to save lives, or at least it read that way to me. I'm sure it's meant to be both and P2 makes this far more apparent, but in P1 it elicited a rather squinty reaction from me. Plus well yeah, getting rid of Polyhedron is pretty much just ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, like yep he sure didn't care about that thing lmao so getting rid of it isn't such a difficult choice at all. The suggestion that the Polyhedron could be his Udurgh is kind of useless because the Town and Earth are far better candidates and fit with Kin beliefs better, which in this game Artemy pretty much doesn't doubt at all.  Maybe this is why the Bachelor is so present in his route? Daniil did say he'd commit suicide if he lost, maybe we'd want to think twice about pushing him towards it... But again! Does it seem like this guy cares ahhh haha... The dialogue option that is actually engaging with what Daniil said is pretty much there to make it clear to the player what the Utopian ending is and what it would be like.

Ngl at first I thought he was meant to be the 'sacrifice' until they said it's a woman. Every time Artemy learned something about the Bachelor's motivations he'd write down in his diary like '...if it matters' since the player can always choose what ending to go with I guess. I also find it curious that he can say that they are friends but still always writing only 'the Bachelor' in his diaries while Daniil switched to 'Artemy' and 'Burakh' during the final stretch. The one-sided yaoi................ 🤔 At least Artemy doesn't get mad at him for ordering to set the mythic bull on fire, I guess their friendship did mean something to him after all at that point. Also when Capella tells him that he should ask the Bachelor for help with getting into the Polyhedron since the Bachelor 'fawns upon you a lot anyway' the Haruspex just goes 'oh yeah! ok' fjdghdjg... Now that I think about it I DID like the Haruspex route for what it did with the Bachelor hahah, his dialogues and letters are just so good sometimes. Like wow, I felt this.

Very cool, if i was Artemy I'd totally abandon my weird murderous calling for this. Tangentially related... P2 had one moment that I remember from my last replay when Rubin, if kept alive, falls into a deep deserved sleep in his home, and Artemy just starts emotionally monologuing at him.

Like, P1 Artemy would never, but also it goes to show that he's still very much a repressed man here too, buying into toxic masculinity ideals who can't just talk to his friends about his feelings directly... The same character, but more complex. I want to make it clear that I DO like him and his motivations in P2 actually, and his personal conflict being more about the future of the Kin makes that game much more powerful to me than what his classic route was. I heard that initially he was planned to be far more violent and dark, so maybe he could have been sort of a villain protagonist and this was changed later and this is why it feels a bit bland? Hmm... Idk this is fun to me because meanwhile the Bachelor didn't feel that different to me in both games lmao. A highly stressed educated guy who is just trying to prevent the spread of epidemic the 'right' way and then clinging to the only chance he has left to preserve both his ideals and his life. He is a bit less polite in P2 at first (while still very much helping by warding off Rubin) but then rather quickly becomes more cordial to Artemy and vice versa (and wow it sure is nice when Artemy can actually be polite and friendly..). And the moment when he explains some of his personal deal to Artemy feels rather similar in both iterations mood-wise.

I liked his route in P1 a lot, surprisingly so, and I now understand why so many people liked him before P2 came out and afterwards too... There's just something very real about how he is the intelligent Capital doctor but with an extraordinary dream to combat death itself, possibly given to him by the Powers That Be due to these children trying to cope with people dying around them. And instead of favoring him for it they hate him! They leave him with nothing but this final chance to fix things, even if that means destroying everything and rebuilding anew. Daniil's desperation feels very real and thus more compelling, plus like... I mean it's pretty much confirmed that it's not just the Polyhedron and that the soil itself is 'rotten' (literally in the meta real world and through blood beneath the earth in the Town itself) and the decease could return again, sooo his ending doesn't look that bad comparatively. I also appreciated how Maria (or uhh was it Nina talking through her here as well?) explained how their Utopia doesn't actually mean a 'perfect' place, more so just an impossible dream.

The Bachelor doesn't mind this at all, a detail I loved.

...Hmm that said maybe P1 makes it a little too easy for him to kinda ignore the Kin issue, he is only mad about their circumstances when it comes to Vlad choosing to doom thousands of the Kin workers inside the Termitary (which is just his doctor ethics). I mean it is realistic for him to ignore the implications of representing the imperialist side, he does mention his father was a military man too at some point I think... Still, he is very quick to accept the Kin's unique beliefs as something that has obvious merit, trusting the Haruspex with that side of things in both of their routes, and he doesn't make much of a distinction between them and regular Town people when it comes to patient treatment. If anything it's probably a sign of how the writers weren't thinking that hard about this worldbuilding aspect at the time... even if I appreciated them showing the downsides of the Kin's society, I think those were done better than in P2 purely because it was a bit more realistic (I am talking about sexism mostly, such as selling their own daughters and not respecting their autonomy, plus the mention of Kin politics and different ruling clans rather than the hive mind situation implied in P2). Like, it is more obvious in P1 that wholeheartedly embracing the Kin's return to tradition isn't such a good solution for them either, but one that will likely happen anyway with Artemy and Taya as their new leaders. And it could get trickier in Pathologic 3 I think, especially since most of us really appreciated the portrayal of colonization in P2 and would expect it getting addressed again in future games of other character routes, but we'll see I guess! Either way I look forward to that game a lot now.

i literally read the book of bill days ago but its only now kinda hitting me how fucked ford and bills whole thing was though cause ford literally talks about being so unable to sleep (to try to keep bill away), and when sleep inevitably caught up to him, he would wake up to his body abused and things messed with and he just couldnt seem to find an escape (and he literally didnt get to truly escape until 30 years later)

(also keeping people awake for unhealthily long periods of time is another tactic used to mess with and control people because of how it impairs brain function)

listing off the things we see in those few pages in the book of bill:

i mean, punching and scratching at a steel door for hours would be so damaging to your hands and probably hurt like hell for at least 2 days after. then bill says he was hitting fords head against a wall, though its said in a post-it as if its a joke, but he also isnt exactly above doing that, and honestly he says most things like its a joke.

i also dont need to say 'bill really doesnt know how to take no for an answer' because he makes that very clear in literally any interaction we see with him.

bill literally puts a venomous snake near ford while fords asleep, which could have killed him if he wasnt lucky+skilled enough to deal with it.

he nearly gives ford hypothermia, and in the same action actively threatens ford with the idea of making him jump off of a high spot, and like ford says, doesnt do it just so he can send a message to ford about how hes the one in control.

he gets ford in trouble with not only the law, but also with other people that are probably not very happy with him after. he mutilates fords body in several ways, and i dont think i need to go into detail on them because theyre... so ew. and he even exposes part of fords body to the world. like, its just taking his shirt off, but thats still showing off his body in a way that he didnt agree to or want

and then he attempts to (or purposefully fails to) call stan, using fords voice to threaten suicide and tell stan that ford never loved him.

and he punctuates it with a final power move, in a hallucination that he creates, hes messing with stans memories and making him feel like his body was basically about to implode

and like. okay, we all joke about toxic old man yaoi, and its a good joke and toxic old man yaoi is great and its an interesting ship, but holy fuck.

like. to say the absolute least, that had to be so, so deeply violating. its no wonder that when we see ford in the past, when he finally contacts stan, he looks like hes on the verge of shattering into a million pieces. he just went through, and still wasnt yet out of, some deeply abusive shit.

like... everything coming out lately both in this book and what ive heard is on the website, mixed with what we already knew from the show itself... the stans are both so, so fucking tragic dude. their whole lives were thrown away over things that really didnt even need to be the way they were, and then they both get into situations that are pretty damn screwed, and those situations follow them for the rest of their lives. its basically a miracle that things worked out in the end for them.

i dont really have a point, i just had to talk about all that. i read almost all of the book of bill in one sitting, and while i was really enjoying it, i was also getting kind of tired of sitting in one spot only doing this one thing for several hours straight. i still felt a lot of the emotional bits of it of course, but man this part specifically just really didnt hit me until now.

i mean, to say the absolute least, i know what its like to feel violated in a similar way, though not anywhere near to the extent of what he went through at all. someone get that man some therapy got damn

"are people not into that?" i ask, after posting my weird niche shit to the internet, despite knowing it to be weird niche shit.

[clemymimi]

I agree with this! Muzan is really dumb in Canon. He probably randomly saw a slayer chilling on the rooftop at night and decided to recruit him on a whim pff! It's sad to see such an intriguing character as muzan not meet his full potential in Canon. Instead we get whatever the heck muzan is 😭

Inspite of his frustrations, michikatsu definitely continues to seek out yoriichi

This entire panel is literally just michikatsu seeking yoriichis council (and yoriichi basically responds with what michikatsu interpretes as:)

"You're not that special brother. Your hard work and blood sweat and tears are of no importance in the grand scheme of things. Everyone will end up in the same place anyhow"

Now, yoriichi OBVIOUSLY didn't mean that, but that is how michikatsu perceives it.

Also another point I just realised: notice how yoriichi is standing straight ahead in both the panel with muzan and the panel with michikatsu? Michikatsu is turned into a different direction altogether which suggests that they were talking past one another. And even more so, it appears as though yoriichi makes no attempt to meet michikatsu on a plane that he can relate to or understand. He simply gives him cryptic advice and doesn't even bother to check how michikatsu takes that advice. He doesn't turn around or anything of the sort, which also indicates his blind spot towards michikatsu as he simply TRUSTS that michikatsu will understand him perfectly, that michikatsu will always be there. Yoriichis back is turned towards michikatsu implicating his strong sense of trust towards his brother. Michikatsu on the other hand perceives yoriichis body language as mocking, thinking his brother only takes him for granted and doesn't even bother to check in on him. It hurts michikatsu that his brother continues to be so absent and never really meets michikatsus needs. It only serves to solidify his impression that yoriichi is only pitying him which in turn spikes his hatred because, if yoriichi pities him and mocks him, michikatsu won't love him either. (He's good at pretending)

To talk about what michikatsu needs:

The love language michikatsu likes to receive the most are words of affirmation. It's one of the core reasons why his dynamic with yoriichi is so skewed. Yoriichi seldolmy talks in a straightforward manner. He never tells michikatsu what he means with his cryptic phrases. Yoriichi never once told michikatsu that he loved him or admired him in a straightforward manner and was just so distant all the time. Michikatsu is precisely the type of person that needs to be told how others are feeling, that thrives on direct communication..although michikatsu can also be very subtle and actually prefers to give out acts of services (as it is his primary love language towards others) he needs the reassurance, because he never got any during his childhood and is as such very insecure. It is one of the reasons why he joined muzan so easily. Muzan is straightforward in what he wants, he communicates his wishes with kokushibo directly and tells him exactly what he needs to do. The truth is that muzan fulfilled michikatsus need for words of affirmation whereas yoriichi did not.

I wanted to share an observation I have made by utilising the manga to sort out the chronological order of the events during the sengoku period surrounding michikatsus betrayal, yoriichi facing off against muzan, and yoriichi being banned from the corps.

I studied this specific sequence of the manga panels a few months ago and the revelation changed my thoughts about kokushibos and muzans dynamic a lot. Just in case you as well, have suffered from this strong misconception I wanted to share this.

This more analytical approach was actually heavily inspired by my dear friend @gilded-sunrays or @crescent-blades go check out her amazing analysations and calculations if you haven't already <3

Without further ado, let us get started!

Chronological order of events during the sengoku period

I'm sure many of you are familiar with these two manga pages, if not, be warned of spoilers (It's kinda unavoidable when It's about michikatsu and yoriichi)

The content of these pages are clear: yoriichi faces off against muzan, meets tamayo and we find out that michikatsu betrayed the demon slayer corps

But let us take a closer look :

As one can see, yoriichi and muzan face off amongst bamboo trees and stony ground. Muzan begins their interaction by stating that he no longer seeks to recruit any breathing users before he attacks.

In the panel about michikatsus betrayal, we can see the very same stony ground and bamboo trees in the background. The prior manga panel also shows tamayo, which leads us to the conclusion that at the point in time that muzans and yoriichis show-down occurred, michikatsu was already betraying the corps. It is also clear that yoriichis fellow hashira came running towards him as quickly as they could which must mean that this happened rather recently.

With these events in mind, let me present you with a timetable of the happenstances:

- michikatsu takes muzan up on his offer and muzan gives him his blood

```Michikatsus transformation takes three days```

- `muzan meets yoriichi and tells him that he is no longer interested in breathing style users`

- `after yoriichi nearly drives him into a corner, muzan escapes`

`Lady tamayo is tasked with helping bring down muzan`

```At the same time```

- `freshly transformed michikatsu cuts off the master as head and brings it to muzan`

- `the hashira catch wind of this and locate yoriichi. They then tell him about his brother's betrayal`

- `they most likely notice tamayos presence and that yoriichi let her go. Yoriichi also tells them about his meeting with muzan`

- `yoriichi gets banned from the demon slayer corps`

-》 **Michikatsu encountered muzan FIRST. Muzan had no prior knowledge about yoriichi tsugikuni and recruited his twin brother BY CHANCE**

Had michikatsu not met muzan three days prior, he COULD have been present during the face-off between yoriichi and muzan. He would have helped keep both yoriichi and himself safe. But most importantly. He would not have allowed yoriichi to try to reason with the devil. As such yoriichi never asked muzan any questions and finished him off.

(BTW It's entirely possible that everyone else already knew about this but I still wanted to share it heh)

I quite liked Chris, if the fact that my blog is themed after him didn't make that obvious. He really resonated with me as a character, especially when his first interlude rolled around and I found out he had a lot of the same thought patterns that I did at the time I read Ward, and still more or less hold today. A concrete example would be his need to control the flow of information regarding his spoilery deal, which was almost 1 to 1 with my experience as an atheist in a highly religious area.

That being said, he still ended up being a dick and I would have personally gone about things very differently then he did.

Okay but following up with some Ward positives as of finishing arc 9:

Victoria, Ashley, and Sveta are great all in their own ways

Each of them recognisably being in that delicate state of late teens/early twenties where you're trying to figure your shit out and grapple with the fact you're 'behind' what feels like the majority of your peers in terms of your development due to your fucked up life and trauma

Both Ashleys' cringefail loser villainy, she kins Skeletor and Starscream

Crystal doesn't even own scissors

Rain O' Fire 'Sopping Wet' Frazier when do we get back to your deal

Kenzie has never done anything wrong except for all the crimes

I am shocked no one else seems to love Chris, is it because he is annoying and gross and shitty and mean? Is it because of his whole [spoilers deal]? Must a character be 'likeable' or have 'a single redeeming quality' or even 'be more palpable than biting aluminum foil' to be appreciated?

I think they should give Natalie a gun

What's Up with Mario?

Mario's been acting a little strange lately, being slightly calmer and quieter than usual and seemingly sneaking off on occasion, and Meggy and SMG4 are understandably worried considering it's only been a few weeks since they got him back from being accidentally reset. So, they do what any reasonable, mature adults would do in this situation; follow him around in secret to see what he's been up to. This is despite Luigi reassuring them he knows what's going on and that it's nothing to worry about (he doesn't actually tell them what it is, since it's not his to explain).

For most of the episode their investigation seems entirely pointless, as all they see is Mario doing mundane, everyday errands with the expected Stupid Mario Twist. They're about ready to call the whole thing off...at least until he meets up with Daisy at a diner and they hang out and just talk, with it being obvious that they do this regularly. It's especially jarring since they're both just acting like regular people, no memes or chaos in sight. And then after lunch they go to what's apparently a therapy group for people whose lives have been drastically changed by the arrival of memes.

The two investigators call it off after that, finally feeling like they've pried into something they really shouldn't have. Later that day Mario shows up at the castle and the two of them try to admit what they were doing and apologize for spying on him, only for him to tell them that he already knew they were there, and he isn't mad since he would do (and has done) pretty much the same thing in their position. Then he explains what's going on.

Apparently, after the Mario Reset Arc, his old Canon personality and the Stupid Meme personality he's has for the past 12 years started to merge, and it threw him off-balance for a bit, which is why he's been acting weird for a while. He was hanging out with Daisy because seeing Shadow Mario's team during the WOTFI made him feel a bit guilty about letting those relationships fall apart, and he's been working on reconnecting with any of his old pre-meme friends who are open to it (so, at least for now, definitely not Peach, Toad or Yoshi). And the therapy group is something Daisy introduced him to, because quite frankly he is the Poster Boy for "had your entire life and personality upended when the memes showed up and only really got things in order years later." Not to say he doesn't like who he is now or what his life has become, but it was still a massive change with some pretty nasty consequences.

As for why he didn't tell anyone, it's partly because he didn't think it was that big a deal and partly because he didn't want anyone to worry about him. Luigi knew since they live together and he's also been trying to reconnect with their old canon friends, though he's got a lot less ground to cover than Mario.

(not really sure how to end this)
