Jason should start a rumour between the general population that Batman is classist at any minor inconvenience.

I was gonna say "yes absolutely" but thinking back yk I think they already know...

The casual "Jayden Koslovksy", at the grocery store: Did you hear? Turns out Batman is classist.

Mrs Santano, who has seen this man brutally beat down and send to the ICU common thugs to the point of almost murdering them for minor crimes in the city's poorest neighborhood, after a decade of arbitrarily ignoring said neighbourhood in his crusade against crime: ...Are you new in town?

I was thinking about how ygo tells us that Yugi and Anzu have been friends since elementary school, but Yugi still wanted to ask the puzzle for friends, that he was still a lonely kid.

Yugi counts Anzu as one of the friends he got thanks to the wish. So, what I think it was like, that while he considered her a friend, they probably weren't that close, or they were close, but with time, they kinda drifted apart.

The grandpa mentions in the first chapter that it had been a while since the last time he saw Anzu, so it probably means that they used to hang out and then they stopped, and only saw each other at school (who knows maybe in middle school they weren't even in the same class and that's what made them stop hanging out).

That would make sense on why Yugi still felt like he needed friends and felt lonely, and why he sees her as one of the friendships he got thanks to the wish

look i totally get it’s all love now but genuinely every kipperlilly sympathizer that only talks about how it’s so valid she hates the bad kids and how she’s a side character getting fucked by the main characters simply just feels like they themselves have hella side character syndrome and are relating to kipperlilly a bit too hard and might need to consider that they’re only a side character if they convince themselves they are

(my tags explain it a bit better but i was too lazy to copy them up here)

Ngl I am surprised by Snap enjoying Yuri considering the overwhelming amount of Old Man Yaoi (and just Yaoi in general) he publicly posts

why are we talkin bout me in the third person like this isnt being sent to me 😭

[itskaist]

Vibrating over that crossed out handler. Does Ortega remind him of his Farm handler or was his handler another person that was deeply important to him?

Cross-out? What cross-out? ;)

Haha, good spot! Referencing some easter eggs over here. And thank you for asking! <33

Again, got long. I simply cannot shut up about My Favourite Fucked Up Guy.

Yeahhhh, so. Josiah is very emotionally un-self-aware. Emotions, patterns of behaviour, cycles of abuse, he wasn't ever taught any of this. Even after he escaped, his priority was survival, his priority was not getting caught again; learning how to hide; learning how to function like a human being on a very 'make money, buy stuff, eat, make decisions, talk to people' level. And he's still very much stuck in this survival mode. This intense of a trauma will do that to you. Especially if he never talked about it to anybody, there never was anybody who would take him by the hand and say 'hey, what happened to you? that's not normal. that was fucked up and no one should have ever behaved towards you like that.' So to him, the Farm is the baseline Normal, and anything new he learns gets added on top of that. Even with his time as Sidestep, and then returning as a villain, foundations might have been shaken but not yet cracked.

With all this in mind, the patterns of life at the Farm are very much burned deeply into him. They are the earliest foundations of his reality, what he studied and replicated as he came into his own personhood. That includes patterns of relationships. Since he was a cuckoo, I don't think he was able to socialize much with other Regenes; especially adding the still-kind-of-uncertain Sidestep's special status there. Doubly so because of the cuckoo's education in blending in with human culture, I imagine that extra efforts would be extended that they do not internalize those lessons and try to replicate them in the Farm's social context. Isolating them more than others. Being trained by handlers and having to rely solely on them. Remember your place as only Tool, not Person.

And so that, that is Josiah's most formative relationship. In the psychodynamic branch of psychology, there is what's fancily called 'object relations theory' or more precisely, the theory of relationship to the Object. 'Object' specifically being the Mother, and how the relationship to one's mother (or any other primary caretaker) in the earliest days and years of life, and the type of attachment style developed towards her, will determine or at least heavily influence any future attachment styles to all other people in one's life. Whoof! That's a lot of fancy words to simply say that you replicate in your life what you've learned the earliest, and the earlier you learned something the harder it is to change later; because everything that you built atop it would have to be disrupted as well - and that, you know, is what builds up your entire identity as a person.

So. Josiah's earliest relationships, really the only relationships that he had, were with handlers. And that duology is what is very much burned into his brain. There is Person, and there is Tool. Master and slave. The one being provided for, and the one providing. Even after he escaped, all of his later relationships would follow this pattern to some extent, almost always with him falling back into the role of the Tool. Be useful, be needed, prove your worth, provide. If you're needed, you can't be rejected. If you provide, you will be rewarded (with affection, resources, safety). Not anything that would be in any way conscious, mind you. That was simply the only thing he knew. He latched onto the Rangers because that was the easiest group that he could offer something of himself to. He latched onto Ortega because he was the leader, and he dealt out assignments, and judged worth. So it was a priority to be judged by him, accepted by him. Even as they got closer as friends and then question-mark-something-more, Josiah was still very much stuck in the mode of providing, and unfortunately, that was also what held him back from commiting, from trying. Because he didn't believe that in that sort of a relationship, he would be able to provide much of anything at all. And Ortega would be disappointed, and grow bored with him, and their friendship would suffer from it too, and as such his position among the Rangers, and--

…Yeahhh. In his role as the villain, this time, Josiah positions himself as the Person. As the Master. He's the one giving out orders and making decisions now. And it is so empowering, and so thrilling, and-- if he ever realized that he is becoming a handler himself, he would shut down. Just like he does when he realizes that he's hurt the Puppet same as Shroud had hurt her, that he hadn't left his learned Regene patterns at all.

Whoof. Yeah. A lot, a lot of learning still ahead of him. A lot of terrifying realizations, a lot of having to question the reality you took for granted and a restructuring of identity. I'm curious who he will be on the other side of that.

something terrible is happening to me. I'm starting to like my mean gay prof. I had a dream where he came to my birthday party and he was really sweet to me (this should've clued me into the fact that this was pure fiction) and we ended up... um... cuddling. and now I'm finding him kind of cute and endearing at times. it's so dire guys. this is what happens when they take away the other young male profs. no more favorite prof, no more mr armpit... our handsome young guy stores were ransacked and now we're forced to make do with scraps.

[ersatz-introspective]

Je ne sais pas vraiment quoi dire d'autre, alors joyeux Noël et j'espère que papa t'a offert. Profitez également des autres choses que je mets sur la carte au lieu de vous ècrire un essai complet.

[ecrireverie]

Yeah that's it lol

[nikoisme]

I was looking through my notes/drafts and I found this and I have no idea what I was on when I wrote this

[reigen-small-naturals]

okay full disclosure: i am a grown-up who can enjoy art and find some value in it even if i don't agree with its politics. god knows i am enjoying the loyal pin much more than i enjoyed the eclipse. so, what i will say right now is not hating, i just like to talk about things, alright? alright.

so the loyal pin is a pretty obvious royalist propaganda, right? i mean it is sponsored by the ministry of commerce, it's like. not subtle. how did we end up here? people who are well-versed in thai politics, do you know anything?
