Bartok!

Finally got around to watching the movie (more like over a week ago, it took me a bit of time working on this, I'm slow). Loved it, who doesn't love Satanists with themed workout tapes :)

I love that they gave him eyeliner too omg

Spent the entire movie wondering why notice me senpai in the opening gave me a sense of deja vu, and come credits... my questions were answered.

Some closeups too so phone users (peasants) can see all the detail/texture :)

Oh no! It looks like Bartok caught you trying to steal that pesky last page of the prophecy from his office…. But it is pretty vibey in there…..

Since (pretty sure) no one can disprove this, and in quasi-celebration of Pride Month, I’m headcanoning that Onyx The Fortuitous, Slayer Of The Bright Realm is both Autistic & Asexual!

From the way he interacts with people and is extremely passionate about what he likes to a very thorough degree, I instantly related to him (being autistic myself).

Seriously, there were points in the movie where he was talking and making references to people that made sense to him, leaving everyone else kinda confused, and I was just sittin’ there like “oh my god…I do that” or “is this what it’s like when I try to interact with people?”

He’s socially awkward and straight forward, but if you get him going about his special interests or relate to him on some level, he’ll talk your ears off (something else I’m extremely familiar with).

Plus, his little vocal ticks seem very neurodivergent to me.

And I believe he might be asexual but just doesn’t realise it (also something I could relate to). Yes, he is shown to have private fantasies and gets upset over speculation regarding his virginity, but nowhere in the movie do we see him cozying up to anyone in any way that isn’t purely friendly. Also, for those unaware, some asexuals do experience forms of sexual desire and fantasies. Spectrums, baby.

And I’d say there tends to be a bit more pressure on men and a certain ridicule concerning their virginity, so he more than likely feels embarrassed for those reasons also. It may not necessarily be that he feels like he just can’t seem to quote-un-quote ‘lose it’ yet, but rather that he may not have any interest and doesn’t consciously think about it until someone else brings it up.

Even at the end when Farrah heavily implies a sexual union by him joining with her, he doesn’t immediately spring for the obvious answer. He guesses something more tame before she has to specify that there’d be sex involved. This could just be him getting shy or something, but I see it more as Onyx not feeling strongly about engaging in intimacy (particularly with someone that he probably doesn’t feel strongly towards). He’s kinda the same in the musical sequence, if I’m recalling correctly (where Farrah even goes as far(rah) as taking on the image of his personal fantasy to further coax him to her side - and it still doesn’t work).

Onyx The Fortuitous, Slayer Of The Bright Realm (as played by Andrew Bowser) from the movie Onyx The Fortuitous & The Talisman Of Souls (2023) is Autistic & Asexual. And he probably doesn’t even realise this.

I dunno.

This is too babygirl to leave on my sideblog. Look how he channels Weyoun in this gif.

I’ll find a Weyoun gif to compare it to I swear. But it’s the head tilt, obsequious smile, and wiggly fingers that do it.

My favorite micromoment in Onyx the Fortuitous.

I beg you to see this movie.

[ID: Farrah shakes her head and whispers "the patty slinger" Bartok incredulously replies "oh fucking right!" and kicks a chair]

Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls is a dang hoot. The “Arby’s Guy” movie that had regressives in a tiff over its debut last year. I have a high tolerance for this character but your mileage may vary. Lovely puppets.
