I don't think I've ever seen anyone hc Vil as autistic before? Like he just when on a little ramble here abt his night routine and it's kinda idia-esque and so cute ajsjskakaj

Also didn't he create the Film Research Club by himself? Just like Jade and Malleus with their own respective clubs? Gosh Im so big brained for noticing this, autistic Vil is canon guys

He trusts us!!! Vil fans all over the world screeched💜💜💜💜💜💜

Poor Grim😔we took away his beauty sleep, also Vil using us as an example has me dying 😭😭😭😭😭

"They are watching…"

It's more a vent art i guess? I drew this because of the feeling that someone is watching me or saying something behind my back even when I am alone at home.

Not entirely related, but another point of consideration: Jade's magic can fail if the target is too guarded, while Jamil's seemingly cannot (barring things like Floyd's UM). In other words, Jamil is more forcefully taking control to begin with - and his ability to do so is also associated with his strength as a mage. If Jade was a more powerful mage, would he be able to "force" his spell through on more targets, or use it repeatedly on them, etc? Would it have similar effects?

Potentially in a similar boat is Fellow/Ernesto, whose magic is fairly weak, and he can't force anyone to do anything they really don't want to, only increase their willingness to do so. Jade's magic presumably falls somewhere on the pipeline between the two, in both strength and application (that is, his magic might be more of a combination of persuasion and control, and accordingly have different effects).

Returning to Jamil, since his magic doesn't necessarily cause pain if the target is accepting/unaware, it's also possible other spells would be painful if targets weren't caught off-guard and actively attempted to resist the effects before they set in. In other words, the pain could be an effect of trying to overpower any magic with sheer willpower, rather than in association with his particular spell.

Just some thoughts.

I've been thinking a lot about Jamil's unique magic and his upbringing. And Kalim.

Jamil's spell hurts people until they succumb to him, which makes me wonder if it's tied to how he was raised.

Jamil's parents hit him to make him comply right in front of Kalim, and Kalim’s response in Book 4 was to say, "I'm gonna hit Jamil."

Did Jamil's parents teach those boys that hurting people to make them do what you want is okay? Thoughts on Jamil's parents?

👀！Hello hello, thank you for this question!

It is true that Jamil's unique magic causes his target pain that seems to be beyond his control ("The pain will last as long as you resist") and that Jade's not-dissimilar unique magic has been described as painless, but I am not sure we have ever been given an explanation as to why!

Jamil's parents have been discussed a bit earlier (below), and it is also true that they struck him in front of Kalim to emphasize the importance of doing what Kalim says:

One of the many interesting parts of the flashback is that, while we know that Kalim was standing there and watching as it happened, we do not know what his reaction was:

Is it normal for servants to be hit at Kalim's mansion? Or was he horrified? Is that why he concludes the best way to respond to Jamil in Book 4 is with violence--because that is what he is used to seeing?

If he were horrified one would think he'd never want to see Jamil be hit again, but his response in Book 4 was to want to hit Jamil himself. Maybe he repressed the traumatic memory of what he saw? Did he realize that he was responding to Jamil in the same way that Jamil's parents used to when Jamil disobeyed, and that is why he wasn't able to go through with it, breaking the cycle?

Many questions, and one of many reasons to look forward to the manga adaptation of the Scarabia manga! 🐍 While the manga are not canon to the game, it will be interesting to see what direction they go in with Kalim 🦦

While the potential connection to Jamil's unique magic causing pain until the person obeys him (like his parents did to him?) is also interesting, we cannot say "his unique magic adapted to the environment in which he was raised" is canon without in-game confirmation, and it is all speculation 💦

But interestingly, after reviewing all the unique magics in the game...is Jamil's the only unique magic that intrinsically involves pain? 📝

Deuce's unique magic is designed to cause its target damage, so maybe his as well? 📝 But it is also a defensive form of magic that does not allow him to hurt anyone unless they have already hurt him, first.

In order to compare to Jamil's we might need Ace hitting Deuce with multiple spells until he has stored up enough power to use Bet the Limit, and then aiming Deuce at somebody else, turning him into a human cannon (would that work? 🧐).

While unique magics like Vil's have the potential to cause harm, Vil explicitly says that it can produce positive effects as well--it is not inherently violent beyond his control, like Jamil's.

Leona's can also cause damage by design, but in theory could he also maybe do things like make dried fruits?

Sebek's causes pain when cast, but to himself, as he has yet to fully master it. Ruggie's can cause pain if he wishes but he has the option to choose, where it seems Jamil does not...very interesting to think about!

Daddy jade🍄 (post NRC)

>His wifey💕💞💕

>His sons

Lavender was a messy-haired, lazy, and ugly baby.

Violet has a very feminine and gentle face, he doesn’t speak. (Maybe he's mute? Or maybe he just has nothing to say?)😶

Floyd and Jade came up with the idea of giving Lavender an octopus plush, so that when Azul comes to visit Jade, he’ll see Lavender mishandling the plush, biting it and dragging it around everywhere, since he’s a kid who doesn’t take care of his things...🐙

I hope no one have done this trend with them before🥲🙏

[donoteatwingsoutapussy]

Yeah

im hard

[r3dr3ality]

One thing I find interesting about the octo crew is that all of their hair cuts are short, but have a single strand that is long for expression or something. That would be cool if it was like a trend in the Coral Sea or something. I know it's probably coincidence tho
