thinking so often about pre-canon dakota. little and too underweight to put on any muscle, not nearly enough to hold onto kat. delinquent loner kid who barely had any friends ever. empty room and better to have an empty room than a room like the rest of the apartment. spent years recklessly trespassing and thrill seeking and adrenaline chasing with no concern for himself. photo of his parents hidden under his mattress on the floor. landlord banging on the door every month. aunt who he loved so dearly but who made him sad.
awesomest fucking vyncent character beat was when he was beating the shit out of the trickster immediately after william died & said something along the lines of "yeah i promised i'd protect him and i couldn't. but after a certain point i can't fucking keep beating myself up for when other people hurt my friends. it's not my fucking fault!!! it's yours!!! there's only so much i can do and the blame doesn't rest on me for not being able to be a hundred places at once it rests on you for being fucking evil!!!!!!"
giggling to myself whenever i think of vyncent's canon hero costume. low-rise rolled up japris (jean capris). got that bare calves no socks drip. sneaker boots. 1 ankle bracelet. fuckass chain with keys on it that just flails around. leather jacket. knife belt but no sheath for the knife so the knife is just rawdogging it. the way the knife just looks like a blow-up throwing knife. the bandolier (?) over the bomber jacket with accent color cuffs. ragged techno-poncho cape situation. 3 dollar cvs black mask. come here boy i can fix you...................
guy who's really really normal about ghostkicks thinks you should read their normal ghostkicks fic and not think too hard about it. what. u don't like greyscale arc? stab stab?
