lol I’m venting ,,>_<,, so preppy
I’m annoying and selfish. I don’t have patience for anyone and everything I do on here is a carefully crafted version of myself that I could never be in real life because I want people to like me. Minor daily inconveniences make me irate and I want to scream and cry because something didn’t go how I wanted it to. I think I’m so mature and grown up but then I go into a social setting and suddenly that’s all out the window and I’m reminded that I’m just a socially anxious kid with like five real friends because I’m too scared to let people in. I’m insensitive. I don’t feel things. I’m smart but that’s all I have going for me. I’m not even good at my hobbies. I’m a shitty musician and my art sucks. I act like everything is fine and I’m happy and my life is perfect but it feels like everything is falling apart and none of it is worth it anymore. I don’t want to put in the effort. I procrastinate until the last second and wonder why I don’t like my work. I have memory issues, which really doesn’t help with my procrastination because not only do I not do it most times, but it’s because I waited too long and forgot it existed. I’m extremely paranoid about everything. I have no social skills beyond what I can do through a screen. I’m not okay but I don’t know how to make myself okay because if I try to bring anything up to my parents they brush me off and tell me I’m too young to understand my emotions. I went to the counselor once at school and he told my parents I should see a therapist and they got mad at ME for being depressed. I don’t even know why I try anymore.
But you guys are great and I’m happy to have you all in my life because no matter how shitty my day is I have friends who care about me <3
Okay that’s it that’s my multi-faceted vent about everything I think is wrong with me and my life ^_^

hmmm 63% & 82% maybe??? :3c
HI let’s do Char and Dañarte again ndjfjfngjgkg
63%. Has your character ever experienced deja vu? Do you happen to know why?
HMMMMMM. yknow what. I think Char gets it every so often whenever a Minor Yet Specific inconvenience happens to him, like a sock going missing in the laundry. But like. Keeps happening right after Dañarte was over🤔 small little things that are definitely Dañarte messing with him in Annoying Yet Not Criminal Or Provable Ways, and I think Char has about a 50/50 rate of being like “ok this was Dañarte but I will politely pretend not to notice” or “hmmmmm wow this sure is a strange occurrence!!!! I’m sure it’s all coincidences!!!! Anyway🚶”
I think I lost track of the question bfjfvjjfjhgn maybe I don’t k Ow what deja vu is LOL but since dañarte probably has stupid shit he pulls multiple times it probably confuses Char in a deja vu type way?? Does that make sense. WELL It does inside my mind 😌
82%. What was your character like as a baby? As a child?
^ the previous answer reveals to me that I guess Dañarte kinda likes pranks??? Except to him they are Evil Schemes. Maybe he got better at being actually kinda sinister mean boy as they got older (re: the cater situation™️) buuuut sure we’ll say as a baby toddler he was kinda rowdier and liked to “play fight” Char but was always scolded for being too rough, and then as a kid he shifted to more pranks, and now he’s just kind of a cunning little snake of a guy.
Char on the other hand, I think as a lil babby he cried a lot lol. Like just a big emotions kind of boy. Would get overwhelmed and cry even at like happy things bc he’s just a little guy and he has nowhere to put all tne feelings!! And also his cousin picks on him and is too intense!!! Then maybe as a kid he started to mellow out and learn to handle his emotions better, but still has a lotta feelings. But he’s gotta be a Respectable Young Prince Or Whatever so he’s gotta be a good boy!!!
[x]
#terristre#ocs#twst oc#asks#THANKSSSSSSS!!!!!#this is fun I’m learning so much about my own lads LOL#I still gotta make Maybe tags for specific characters and get organized#but not NOW I’m on LUNCH BREAK on my PHONE#so sorry if there are phone autocorrect typos I maybe didn’t catch mwah lol#oc: char#oc: Dañarte

May you do organization members in an airport or on a plane? If it hasn’t been done already
Sorry to bother lol I love your blog!
You aren’t a bother, love!! We discussed this in the chat and it was pretty great, so everyone: a lot of credit to Dochas, Matthew, rue, and Icestream Glimmerwing, and azul.chiaki
-
Plane rides are wild with the organization members, whether it’s a public flight with a bunch of people or just the fourteen of them scattered across the aisles. Some of them have no idea what ‘personal space’ means, someone is inevitably going to get locked in the bathroom the entirety of the flight, and there’s going to be one who’s going to almost get thrown out of the plane. It doesn’t matter if they’re going to a business meeting across the world or to an amusement park or on vacation or something - it’s going to be chaos.
Xigbar reclines all the way back in his seat no matter who he’s around. He won’t kick seats if the people around him are nice and quiet, but be an asshole and you’re going to get kicked throughout the entire flight. Will absolutely want to join the mile high club or sleep with the flight attendant.
Vexen and Xaldin will inevitably get stopped at the baggage claim. Vexen will not get strip searched. Xaldin usually will. There will absolutely be some sort of fight or argument - Xaldin is complacent, though annoyed to know that he was singled out because TSA Agents are usually awful - but rest assured that Vexen and probably Xigbar will get pulled out of line and almost arrested.
TSA Agent: *finds a bottle of hand lotion in Vexen’s bags* Sir, you aren’t allowed to bring this on the plane.
Vexen: It’s just lotion! My hands get dry very easily and this is an expensive brand!
TSA Agent: We need you to dispose of it, sorry for the inconvenience.
Xigbar, from where he’s standing behind Vexen in line and is listening to the conversation: Don’t let him fool you, that’s his jack off lotion
Vexen, tired and fed up with airport security and Xigbar: Sir, this man has a weapon in his pocket.
Xaldin and Lexaeus need that first class upgrade, but it’s expensive so they just binge a bit on the expanded “Comfort Plus” seats. Their limbs are just too big to fit on the tinier seats.
But there are some people who inevitably end up in first class. Saix is usually the one who orders the plane tickets in the first place, but you can bet your ass that Xemnas is going to call the airline to immediately update his ticket to first class so he doesn’t have to be by himself with the other org members. Turns out, Marluxia does the same thing. This man rolls up to the plane with Starbucks and wearing Gucci sweats and bypasses all of them (usually with Larxene) to go to first class and everybody is like ‘what the hell’
Turns out, well. Neither Xemnas nor Marluxia realized that they both upgraded their seats, and neither are happy to realize that they ended up sitting next to each other in first class.
Marluxia, to the flight attendant: Ma’am, I will give you $500 if you kick this man off of the plane while we’re in the air.
Without fail, Zexion is always mistaken for a minor. The staff at the airport keep stopping and asking him if he’s looking for his parents and he gets so aggravated he just goes, “No, my parents are dead.”
Vexen and Lexaeus end up having to rescue him because they feel bad and they can see how aggravated he’s getting. Xigbar tells their flight attendant that Lexaeus and Vexen are Zexion’s recently married adopted gay dads and both Lexaeus and Vexen have no idea why everyone is congratulating them.
Some random stranger: I know you don’t know me, but I just want to tell you that you’re really inspiring and it’s so sweet that the two of you adopted that nice boy.
Vexen and Lexaeus: what the fuck are you talking about
Luxord ends up sleeping through most of the flight. He inevitably falls asleep about fifteen minutes in, eye mask on, mouth open, ear buds in his ears and music blaring loudly. It annoys the shit out of anyone who sits next to him because Luxord will inevitably tilt to the side and sleep on their shoulder through the whole flight. The only one who puts up with it is Xaldin, who usually ends up falling asleep, too.
Axel, who ended up sitting next to Luxord: Hey Zexion, can I borrow one of your pink highlighters?
Zexion, who’s busying himself with doing one of those foreign language programs on the in-flight TV’s: Uh, sure. What do you need it for?
Axel: I’m going to see how much I can draw on Luxord’s face before he wakes up.
Zexion, handing a stack of multi-colored highlighters to Axel: Go nuts, man
Poor Xion. This sweetheart has to go to the bathroom before the plane takes off because she hates airplane bathrooms, but she doesn’t want to go by herself. Demyx offers to go with her so he can pick up some food from one of the little fast food places. They both head back and SURPRISE! The plane left like ten minutes ago without them.
The others don’t find out until like halfway through the flight when Larxene is like “Hey, Roxas, can you give this to Xion for me?” And Roxas (who hasn’t looked up from his game system in like three hours) looks to Axel on one side of him and an empty seat on the other side and is like “she’s not sitting by me, I think she was sitting by Saix” But Saix is already four mimosas in and is half asleep and Xion is definitely not sitting by him.
“Lexaeus, have you seen Xion?“ “No, she was sitting by Demyx.“ “Uh, great. Have you seen Demyx? Both of their seats are empty.” “WHAT“
Email: 2:42 PM
To: Lexaeus, Saix, Vexen, Xaldin, Xemnas
From: Demyx
hey we got left at the airport and xion is crying rn what do i do lmao

Opinions on the new sander sides?
(I don't know if you're asking about the new video as a whole or the new side, so Imma go ahead and answer both) (Also, sorry for my bad English hehe)
The video is fantastic! Maybe not my favorite -because the bar is so damn high- but it's still pretty good.
I've dealt with intrusive thoughts before and I made a lot of reseach on the subject, so I found the plot a bit predictable, but like, in a good way. It was like seeing the video from Logan's point of view. I'm familiar with both the problem and the solution, so I kinda knew where all that was going.
But that's also one of the things that makes it so awesome! It is both extremely relatable and educational. And it was very interesting to see how they portrayed the intrusive thoughts, the others' reaction to them (well, him) and the process of learning and understanding throughout the video until they reached a solution. It is so accurate and detailed!
Now, more specific things:
The music was just on point. I felt truly scared at some points and while it was mostly thanks to Thomas' wonderful acting the music played a huge part in that too. It's the kind you'd expect in a horror movie. And the timing was perfect.
MY BOY LOGAN IS AWESOME! I missed him and I loved him in this video.
Remus' name is such a clever choice.
Remember all the angsty fics/prompts about the sides accusing Logan of being Deceit in disguise? Welp, I guess it is canon now.
Patton apologizing for being too controlling? Idk about you, but after basically seeing the fandom burst into flames after SvS it felt like a huge relief. Also, WE STAN CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!! I love him.
The "a dark side for each light side" theory both confirmed AND revoked? Now we know it can happen but not necessarily always.
And Logan's words physically affecting Remus... interesting detail there
Am I the only one who has the feeling the dark sides are really scared of Logan? Like, they try to get rid of him as soon as he acts like a threat to them or their goals. It seems almost desperate. Deceit silenced him and didn't let him participate and now Remus physically attacks him with a fucking shuriken to the forehead. I fear for my boy.
Protective Virgil made me cry in that last scene
And Roman saying "I was struck by a realization" and apologizing to Logan just before explaining "it shows you everything you don't want to be"... T h e F e e l s !! !
And now, going back to Remus (aka the trash boi):
As a person and what he represents? Hate him. As a character? Fucking amazing.
If you keep in mind that the whole purpose of the character is not to be likeable and to inspire fear, he's perfectly writen. I love how he can go from "annoying minor inconvenience" to "run for your life or he'll kill you" in the blink of an eye. That touch of unpredictability plus his lack of any real motivators to do evil makes him downright terrifying. And it's brilliant.
I love grey/ambiguous characters (for example, I personally liked Deceit much more), but having a true 100% evil character is also very refreshing and fun. So yeah, I think he's a great addition.
His voice/tone also fits him so well! Thomas never fails to amaze me, how does he do that?! And his outfit... it's going to be hell to cosplay him lol but I liked the design. So dark and dramatic. And I love how it parallels Roman's.
So, all in all, a wonderful video. I really enjoyed it and them covering this subject made me very happy.

Do you really think that Valt is a bad friend to Shu? Because I’ve seen every instance where he tries his absolute hardest to be there for his friend without being too overbearing. And what you said about Valt screaming at Shu to to snap him out of his brainwashing? I don’t think that was the case. It seemed more like the shock of losing to Valt was what snapped him out of it. And Valt did try talking to Shu before hand. Besides, don’t Bladers usually scream and shout more during battles anyway?
[This is going to be a truly impressively massive amount of text, because of course this is the Main Character and the Main Rival we’re talking about, so there’s a lot to unpack here – This is probably the most detailed/complicated relationship in the show, naturally. I apologize in advance for the obtrusive text wall…which I am only making larger by prepending it with this apology (;x_x)]
I don’t think Valt was intentionally a bad friend, but I do think he and Shuu are bad for eachother, yeah. And I have several different reasons for saying that; But first [and this might be a surprise], all of this is actually not why I don’t like Valt [so I don’t think it’s my bias talking when I say he’s a bad friend, ahaha]; I mean, Lui was of course way, WAAAAY more awful to Shuu than Valt was and I love Lui. [If they’re written well, I generally find complicated relationships really interesting, whether they’re healthy relationships or not.] I actually don’t like Valt specifically because I couldn’t stand the way he was written in s2 – He ended up harping on a lot of tropes that happen to annoy me [So it’s an entirely separate thing that basically just boils down to shallow personal taste jhgfhdkl OTL]. I actually didn’t particularly dislike Valt at all in s1 [though I also didn’t particularly like him, and I found his voice got on my nerves a bit sometimes], and I’m more than willing to STOP hating him in s3 if, when we actually see more of him, it becomes apparent that the writing team isn’t still puppeteering him with Bad Cliches for the sake of the plot. /end disclaimer
Now, here’s my actual answer under a cut, because it’s just…so much…:
I don’t think Valt was “trying to support Shuu without being overbearing” for the most part at all; Valt was just completely oblivious to the fact that there was something seriously wrong with Shuu until Shuu had already gone totally off the deep end. I think what you’re reading as “support” is maybe just how Valt was always so cheerful and happy towards Shuu? But that’s not actual support, that’s just…basic enthusiastic friendliness. Valt didn’t try to address any of Shuu’s bad ideas or unhealthy thought patterns, and try to steer him away from them; like, think of how 1) Shuu helped Dyna decide against quitting beyblade, or 2) how Hoji physically stopped Wakiya from beating his fists against the wall after a loss, and then convinced him that there was no shame in losing and this was actually just a chance to learn from the mistake and try again later, or even 3) how at the end of s2 Wakiya told Shuu something along the lines of “Hey what you did was fucking dumb dude, don’t do that again” but also forgave him for it because ofc they’re still friends even after the Red Eye fiasco, etc. THAT’S support. “Support” is “trying to help somebody through a problem{*}”. And Valt…obviously couldn’t do that if he wasn’t aware of Shuu’s problems in the first place.
Hell, Valt somehow wasn’t even aware of how Shuu got his scar. Near the end of s1, when Shuu told the team about how Lui tried to gouge out his eye, Valt was as surprised as everybody else. That’s always been a major “What the fuck” moment for me; did Valt not even watch that battle? His “best friend” was fighting Lui Shirasagijo, and I’m sure that was televised? Why was Valt not aware of that major trauma Shuu went through until then?? What? Did he just…not even ask about the scar? Did Shuu tell him it was an “accident” and he just accepted that and proceeded to ignore it? How could Shuu’s best friend not know anything about that battle?
And when Valt WAS aware of an Obvious Problem that Shuu had – the injured arm – he didn’t prevent Shuu from making it worse when he could have. Valt ACKNOWLEDGED that he could have kept Shuu from hurting himself further, because Valt WANTED to back out of that battle and not let Shuu fight him. And Valt does get some “Good Friend points” for that imo, but he also loses those points immediately because he folded and DIDN’T call off that battle…just because Shuu didn’t want him to. It shouldn’t have mattered that Shuu didn’t want him to refuse to battle him. It shouldn’t have mattered that Shuu got angry. The bottom line was that Shuu was hurting himself and was going to make it worse. [Like…would you let your best friend play in traffic just because they wanted to and got mad when you tried to stop them? Looks like maybe Valt would ._.] Valt enables Shuu’s self-destructive tendencies. The things that Shuu wants are DEFINITELY not necessarily things that will be good for Shuu, as Shuu proves by making bad [dangerous] decisions again and again.
Ah, and at this point I realize I need to explicitly clarify something because I’m noticing I keep wording it a little wrong: I’m saying Valt doesn’t realize when Shuu has a problem, but that’s actually nnnnot quite right? More accurately, it’s like Valt notices when something is bothering Shuu, but has NO IDEA how bad the problem actually is, because Valt 100% falls for it when Shuu tries to downplay his issues. When Shuu insists that he’s fine, Valt believes him and just thinks “Well, whatever’s wrong, Shuu can handle it”. So Valt knows that Shuu is agitated by things sometimes, but he is mistaking Shuu’s rapidly mounting Severe Emotional Trauma for just some relatively minor inconvenience that Shuu will probably get over fairly quickly. Valt doesn’t realize that things are FAR worse than Shuu is pretending they are. He doesn’t realize that Shuu is lying to him to minimize something that is actually overwhelmingly significant.
But…I think maybe, to a certain extent, Shuu likes that about Valt; how Valt doesn’t really try to stop him from making his bad decisions. Valt doesn’t try to talk to him about his problems. Valt is just like Shuu’s shitty absent parents in how he’ll just believe that Shuu’s got everything under control if Shuu SAYS he does. Shuu likes to pretend he’s fine when he’s actually suffering, and Valt makes that easy. It’s…almost like Valt will WILLFULLY IGNORE Shuu’s suffering so he doesn’t have to deal with it, presumably because he believes Shuu can deal with whatever it is just fine by himself. Because even when Valt CAN tell that something’s maybe Very Wrong, if Shuu says “It’s fine” then Valt will just accept that bullshit and stop worrying about it. Even in the rare instances when Valt IS aware that “I’m fine” is a lie, he still trusts Shuu to handle whatever the problem is anyway. It’s like looking at a person who is drowning and thinking “Nah, they must be fine” because they told you they know how to swim.
So this just creates, like…a snowball of toxic buildup. Shuu wants people to believe he is Strong and Independent and is always in control of things all the time, and Valt feeds into that unhealthy facade by totally going along with it. Valt doesn’t worry about Shuu enough, because Shuu doesn’t want him to. But Shuu NEEDS someone to worry about him. Valt’s not “trying not to be overbearing”, he’s just…flat-out not doing anything.
[Finally getting to that asterisk from way above…] {*}There are different ways to support someone; for example, passively supporting them without being “overbearing” could be just letting them vent to you, and then telling them you understand them and their feelings are valid [yeah, it’s cheesy but just letting someone know you don’t think they’re overreacting can be exactly what they need to hear more often than you’d think]. Valt actually had opportunities to do this…multiple times. The biggest example would be after Spriggan was broken by Lui; when Shuu and Valt were on the beach. That’s an awful scene.
…Alright, That Is Not Helpful. In fact, that’s gonna make Shuu feel WORSE. Valt totally just trivialized the way Shuu was feeling, he just moved on and continued being happy and cheerful. Like…imagine if your pet died, and you’re at your best friend’s house, you’re sitting in their room crying and grieving, and they’re cheerfully playing video games or something and not even listening to you [except to maybe occasionally turn around and ask “You done being sad yet? No? K, lmk when you get over it so you can come be player 2 and have fun with me over here”]
Now, this:
NO. Valt shouldn’t have let Shuu brush it off like that, but instead he gleefully allowed him to. Shuu needed to talk about that, or at the very least Valt needed to firmly state that it would be okay to talk to him if Shuu ever did want to talk about it [not ideal because Shuu would ofc probably reject the offer, but dammit it would’ve been something, instead of just “Oh, okay nvm he’s fine lol”. As soon as Shuu even slightly tried to play it off, Valt completely dropped the subject for good.]{**}.
Also, somewhat minorly:
…Meticulously fussing over taking care of Valkyrie while Shuu is holding his broken Spriggan in his pocket. After Shuu made it obvious that he feels like Spriggan breaking was his fault because he didn’t take better care of it. Aaaaand then in a minute Valt asks Shuu to hold Valkyrie…so he can run back out to play in the water again. Oh yeah, that totally wouldn’t sting at all. That’s not rubbing salt in the wound or anything. Man, this scene made me cringe. […Actually, this scene deserves its own entirely separate dissection post. I’ll work on that in a bit.]
{**}The thing is, I think Shuu does WANT to talk about his problems, naturally, but at the same time he doesn’t want to admit that he even HAS problems in the first place, and talking to people about them would of course be admitting to those people that those problems exist. So therefore he avoids talking about them. But there are brief moments, when Shuu is feeling particularly overwhelmed, that I think all of the pent-up frustration would just pour out if someone would only prod him about it a bit. When he is alone with somebody he trusts, and they don’t accept his lies about being “fine”, he would probably give in and spill his guts very quickly. [Dyna or Wakiya would probably be the most ideal for this, or possibly even Kensuke. Valt is too easy to lie to.]
Like, look at this. That’s a longing look. That’s a “I’m overwhelmed and overflowing with so many negative emotions right now that they are physically leaking out of my eyes” look. Shuu has things he does want to say. And Valt left him standing there alone.
Moving on to season 2 now…by the time Valt FINALLY realized that something was REALLY REALLY WRONG with Shuu, and that maybe Shuu couldn’t handle it, it was, uh, a little too late. Or a lot too late. Shuu Has Had Enough. Shuu’s so frustrated and angry that now Valt can’t just talk to him, because he’s so fixated on taking Direct Action against failing again that he won’t slow down long enough to listen. Shuu is also actively avoiding Valt now, for a reason that I’ve mentioned in another post {X}. [I won’t re-type that entire post here {parts of it were also purely hypothetical and thus irrelevant to this post}, but TL;DR, Shuu actually seemed to have a lot of pent-up resentment towards Valt for constantly outshining him. Valt did not notice this problem building up in time, due to his lack of proper communication with Shuu. Now, Shuu sees Valt as an obstacle that needs to be overcome, more than he sees him as a friend.]
So yeah, NOW Valt’s trying a little more earnestly to actually talk to Shuu. And I actually think I can gloss over a good amount of s2 [and thank god, because this post is already waaaay too long] and skip straight to the end of the season;
Regarding that final battle, [I don’t say this clearly enough sometimes because I keep mentioning it kind of offhandedly, but] I don’t think Valt simply yelling at him alone WAS what woke Shuu up, but I also don’t think it was the loss that did it either – I think it was a combination of both the iNCREDIBLE VOLUME and also what Valt was saying. Because people certainly do shout a lot during beybattles, but there seemed to be an ESPECIALLY prominent focus on the dialogue this time? Which is part of why I keep saying I’m a little confused by the final battle; because it’s not subbed yet and I don’t KNOW exactly what Valt was saying. But based on the couple of words I could pick out, and Valt’s facial expressions/body language, what I THINK he was saying was probably Generic Power-Of-Friendship Trope Stuff? Something like “I know you’re still in there somewhere!” or “I don’t know what happened to you but we’re still friends so calm down and let’s just be happy again! I forgive you and I believe in you!” And THAT’S what I don’t think should have worked. Because people tried repeatedly to throw Love And Friendship at Brainwashed Shuu, and he just tuned them out completely. Just turning up the volume shouldn’t have made quite such a dramatic difference, I think?
I think, realistically, the Magic Words that could have snapped Shuu out of it would’ve had to be something like…telling him that what he went through with Ashram was not worth it because it’s just okay to fail. It’s okay to fail, to learn from that mistake, and then just keep trying again until you understand the problem well enough to figure out how to get past it. Shuu didn’t need to go berserk and put himself through hell in the Snake Pit to make himself stronger, trying to ensure that he would never lose a battle again. It’s okay to lose and it doesn’t make him weak. Like…getting back up and persistently trying again after getting knocked down is what makes somebody strong. Tenacity. Refusal to fold and give up when faced with a challenge. NOT to try to make sure you will never have to feel challenged again at all. [Wakiya got over nearly this exact mindset. That’s why I say I think he’d be one of the best people to talk to Shuu about it {if Shuu would even let him}]
And I don’t think any of that is even remotely what Valt was shouting at Shuu, because I don’t think it was possible for Valt to say those things. Valt doesn’t have the faintest idea of what happened to Shuu in the Snake Pit, and, even further back than that, Valt doesn’t understand WHY Shuu went to the Snake Pit in the first place. So, not knowing what Valt said from behind the language barrier here, I’m just figuring whatever it was just Wasn’t Enough [or, shouldn’t have been enough]. [The whole finale felt a little rushed to me imo? The pacing in God was terrible overall and there were a lot of loose threads left hanging that will apparently never be addressed again :/ Well, at least the season sort of made up for the dodgy plot by introducing so many amazing characters]
And to cap off the post: I do think that, overall, Valt really does mean well. It’s just that he’s incredibly immature [even amongst his friends who are all also 11-13ish, Valt is still like “the baby” of the group] and is thus ultimately pretty self-centered. He’s not actively trying to hurt anybody though, he’d just prefer to not worry with the messier, more depressing parts of a friendship [bc he obviously doesn’t know HOW]. Unfortunately, Emotional Baggage is a package deal with Shuu, and it can’t be ignored without catastrophic results. And I’ve said that Valt and Shuu’s friendship is toxic, but it actually got that way because of Shuu, mostly; Shuu’s emotional state is a burning garbage fire, and Valt just carelessly fanned the flames instead of grabbing a water hose, if that makes sense. These two got fucked up mainly because of emotional issues that Shuu let fester for too long. And Shuu is likely as fucked up as he is primarily because of his neglectful parents, so, ultimately, I blame Shuu’s parents for this mess. [Well, I blame Lui too to some degree, but Lui’s torment wouldn’t have had such a profound effect on Shuu if Shuu had people to support him after it happened.]
[Also, have you read these yet? {X} {X} I glossed over a lot of pretty important details regarding Shuu’s characterization in this post, because I had already written those two essays before – they are still Highly Relevant.]
#CK replies#CK dissects#I think I'll leave this out of the tags for now; it's certainly not character hate but I think it's also not quite everyone's cup of tea?#A lot of people find Too Many Words really annoying I'd imagine ;._.#Can you believe this still looks like this AFTER I spent a few hours trying to condense it?#[And it's true that I really really don't like Valt right now but I can tell you like him Anon so --]#[-- rest assured that I made a conscious attempt to analyze him for you while trying not to let my bias get in the way]#[[I hope I was successful]]

6. What was your favorite way to pass the time as a kid? I wasn’t allowed to go outside really when I was younger so all I did was read books, watch tv, rewatch disney movies and harry potter movies over and over.
7. What is something you’re proud of? eh, I don’t think i’ve done anything worth being proud about yet...ask me again when I have a career
8. What’s one character flaw in people that you just can’t tolerate? I hate when people don’t have proper manners, it’s so annoying.
9. Do you consider yourself to be more of a leader or a follower? oh a follower for sure. I am but a humble, shy sheep~ leading requires effort lol and it just isn’t interesting for me. Although, if i’m forced into a leadership position I’ll do well, it’s just that I do want to do it.
10. What kind of student are/were you? a pretty good kiddo. Never gto into trouble, and besides my ap physics grade back in junior year I never had low grades. Had to stay in tip top shape academically in order to get anything I wanted and not be disowned by my mom lol.
11. Butterfly effect question! Has there ever been a seemingly minor decision you’ve made (at the time) that ended up having a profound influence on your life? eh I don’t really think so but maybe
12. Name your most irrational fear/aversion SPIDERS, they’re the devil’s animal haha. so that and most most insects ughhh
13. Are there any fictional characters you find especially relatable? hmmm...maybe the mc from kiss him, not me? She’s into weeb shit, I’m into weeb shit. She likes yaoi, I like yaoi lol but she is way more into it than I will ever be. Also she’s surrounded by hot guys, which I am not and that is the ultimate tragedy.
kind of drunk are you? Alternatively, what sort of person are you at parties? I’m still underage so i dunno. Ask me again in January when my bff turns 21, I’ll let you know. At parties I’m super awkward so I’ll either just stand around looking really awkward or follow my friends around.
15. Do you fall in love easily? Or does it usually take a long time for you to trust someone? it’ll take a loooong while. I don’t trust guys (or most people). you can’t unlock my tragic backstory that easily if you date me.
16. Would you rather have one close friend or 100 casual friends? one. I love having close bonds with people because then I won’t feel lonely. Also who needs that many friends.
17. Do you consider yourself to be more of a slob or a neat-freak? I like to have things clean for the most part. Though I might get really lazy and just throw things down and not put them away for a few hours lol. Also my desk can get pretty messy sometimes and becomes a sort of organized chaos, but I’ll always fix it anyway since the mess will eventually bother me.
18. Describe a place (imaginary or real) that you would find incredibly cozy. Somewhere where the weather isn’t terribly hot or cold in their respective seasons and is overcast most of the time. Or Loches, France. I freaking love that place it’s really nice.
19. Do you have kids? If not, do you want them someday? I’d love to have kids, at least 3.
20. What was your favorite book as a child? I used to read the goosebumps and fear street series a lot. Also harry potter, a series of unfortunate events and the chronicles of narnia (Though fo some reason I couldn’t remember the books in that series at all but luckily @acrispyapple told me to reread it and now I have renewed love for it)
21. Name one thing you just don’t get what all the hype is about yeah fidget spinners are pretty dumb and I see them wherever I go.
22. Name one thing that you think is tragically underrated learning how to type properly? I think a lot of people barely know how to type and it upsets me to no end. I hate when people finger peck at the keys, they’re so slow.
23. If you had to be glued to a person for a month, real or fictional (who you have never met), who would you choose? hmm, maybe natsume takashi from natsume yuujinchou. Mostly becuase I really like him. Also being attached to him means I can cuddle nyanko-senesei. Or Nikkari Aoe from touken ranbu because I love him too.
24. What’s something you’d like the chance to do someday? travel all over!
25. Do you typically speak your mind when you have a controversial opinion? Or do generally prefer to not rock the boat? I don’t like confrontation so I keep my mouth shut usually.
26. What’s the dumbest fad you’ve been caught up in? hmm, not sure
27. What’s something you thought was cool as a kid/adolescent, but now cringe at yourself for? *war flashbacks of being emo*
28. What’s a trait you consider to be very admirable? I admire people who can speak their minds without fear, of course they also have to have tact. Also the kind of people who are so good at leading that you’ll naturally want to follow them.
29. Is there a particular kind of item people always tend to give you as gifts? (For instance, people always get you things with ducks on them because you like ducks, etc.) people like to give me things with cats bc cat’s are God’s greatest gift to humanity. I appreciate money just a little more though lol.
30. Do you speak multiple languages? Which ones? Yup. English, French, and Japanese. I really want to learn Korean, German and Spanish but I usually spend half of my free time on continuing japanese studies so we’ll see.
31. Would you rather live in the big city or the countryside? Neither. I like the suburbs. Either that or smaller cities at least.
32. Has there ever been something you were certain you’d hate, but ended up loving? sarada uchiha. When I first saw her at the end of naruto i kinda automaically hated her because I hate sakura. But ever since gaiden and the boruto movie I saw her personality and realized that I lover her haha. So whenever I see her in a boruto ep I’m pretty happy.
33. Do you mind being the center of attention, or do you prefer the spotlight to be on someone else? nope, I get so uncomfortable. I’m happy enough to not be noticed.
34. Favorite holiday? Christmas! I’m so obnoxious about it haha. I love singing Christmas songs and I’ll gladly sing along to the Christmas music that plays in stores and stuff.
35. Are you a more go-with-the-flow type of person, or do you need to have things planned meticulously? a bit of both. For the most part I’m go with the flow but for most important things that happens outside of home life having some kind of plan is logical and for the best .
36. Is there something you loved so much you wish you could forget it and experience it all over again? (A tv show, book, series–anything.) the dragon age series and mass effect series.
37. What hobbies do you have? reading, running this crap blog, doodling, studying, video games
38. If you could have a superpower, but it was only mildly useful, what ability would you want to have? the ability to make things clean themselves.
39. Something people are always surprised to learn about you I’m super lazy! I give off the impression that i would never ever be lazy which is just a lie lmao. That doesn’t mean I won’t do the work that I have to do. One can’t be remiss about those things you know, you’ll set yourself up for failure that way. I just hate wasting energy
40. Something that took you way too long to figure out I can’t work @cyniccat‘s sewing machine properly for the life of me.
41. Worst injury you’ve had? I accidentally ripped the skin off of one of my toes with a door.
42. Any morbid fascinations? idk
43. Describe your sense of humor eh idk, I like sarcasm since I have such rapier wit. I also love really lame jokes lol. but I usually find most things
44. If you had to be born in another era/place, which would you choose? well I wouldn’t want to live in another era because they weren’t such fun times for poc’s. But If I could live in another place, I’d rather live in either Canada or France. Maybe Japan.
45. Something you are irredeemably bad at I can’t summarize that well without rambling.
46. Something that sucked but you’re glad you went through school. Even though it made my cry and my workload stressed me out I met my best friends there and more importantly I got an education.
47. Would you rather have a really godawful ugly tattoo in a place that is only slightly inconvenient to conceal with clothing (upper arm, thigh, etc.), or the coolest, most beautiful tattoo ever in the middle of your face? (Neither tattoo can be removed or concealed with makeup, and the ugly tattoo will deeply offend anyone who sees it.) I don’t want a tattoo ever, so the ugly one but like what’s so offensive about it??
48. Are you more of an optimist or a pessimist? for a pessimist i’m pretty optimistic
49. What would be the most flattering compliment someone could give you? “you fight good”. uh i’m not sure. I don’t take compliments well so even if it was the most flattering thing I probably wouldn’t believe whoever said it and just awkwardly laugh and say thanks.
50. Something you feel people often misunderstand about you hmm people who don’t know me think I like talking irl. I’m more of a listener.
i’m only tagging two people bc I like to see them suffer with me but this is open to anyone who wants to do it
