That’s actually incredibly wise of blitz, and it makes sense. As someone who is incredibly aware of his place in the world, he most likely had to live with the fact that if he can’t do something as big as making a business, for not just himself but his coworkers/family, then no one could feel like they deserve that right. And he wants to be that someone to go “you know what? Fuck you, I do want I want.” Which is a attitude he’s had since the first episode. And this scene only straightens that fact

i wanted to write an angsty normal fic a couple months ago about how i was perceiving his character arc going. i was hoping id be wrong, but i ended up being totally right and im upset!

bc he’s finally seeing how undervalued he is to the team. he’s realizing that linc, taylor, and scary—really linc/taylor and linc/scary—are tight and he’s forgotten. he’s rarely included, his ideas get shot down, they make fun of him for always wanting to be kind and loving hard and wanting what’s best for the people he cares about. linc is like… perpetually putting normal down bc i think he has a morality superiority complex. like none of you, NONE OF YOU! would have made it this far on your “heroes journey” without normal!!!!

he CHOSE to take his sisters place even though he found out the cost, that he wasnt wanted, and that he was just a disappointment for not being special. he CHOSE to stay and support all of you even when he was constantly rejected and put down by friends and crushes and parents. he CHOSE all of them, regardless.

they’re setting up the scary/normal arcs how they set up awakening the doodler and it’s fucking killing me. scary is learning to open up with love, while normal is learning to shut down with hate.

im worried about normal.

I imagine that after Saruhiko had his daughter, he began to hear a lot of people commenting, online and IRL, that daughters "always hate their parents as they hit their teens" and that gets Saruhiko increasingly more anxious with each birthday (he genuinely believes she'll just hate him as soon as the clock tells her she's 14 or something). He is, however, surprised that his daughter never shows any signs of growing to hate him even tho she keeps aging and is getting closer to adulthood now. He feels superior to all the other mothers in the parenting group for having a daughter who doesn't resent him lol.

This probably all seems perfectly sensible to Fushimi, who’s hated his parents since birth and only saw his hatred become purer as he hit his teens. Also somehow I really like the idea of him ending up in this parenting group full of gossiping moms, like his kid made friends with their kids when she was young and he just got kinda absorbed into the group. They sit around and talk about their kids and gossip about their useless husbands (Fushimi likes to mention his useless boss and his idiot best friend) and talk about the neighbors (Fushimi is learning so much, he can’t believe Mrs. Yamamoto’s neighbor cut down part of their tree without asking, she should stab him for that). Fushimi being a first time parent they all find him very adorable and want to help him out, they think it’s cute how attached his daughter is to him. They do warn him though that isn’t it sad the way they become less affectionate to their parents as they get older and be aware that when she becomes a teen she’ll probably start hating you for a while.

This makes Fushimi vaguely uneasy as his kid gets older, like when will the switch be flipped and she’ll start hating him. He thinks he’s prepared for it, since all the girls warned him, but really he’s very anxious about the idea that his daughter will one day start telling him to go die the way he did with his dad (also Fushimi’s baseline for ‘hating your parents’ is far above a normal person’s anyway, so while the ladies in the parenting group just mean that like she’ll get mad at your for not letting her stay out all night or whatever Fushimi is thinking that she’ll loathe him with every fiber of her being and stop coming home in order to deliberately avoid seeing him). As his daughter gets into her teen years though she remains remarkably well-adjusted and happy and at some point it starts to dawn on him that his kid doesn’t hate him after all. When the other ladies talk about how they have such a rough time with their kids Fushimi gets to sit there looking smug because his daughter doesn’t resent him at all, she’s never told him she hopes she can dance on his grave or anything the way he did with his dad.

No because like that whole ending interaction really started being horrifying with the evil fairy RIPPING HER EYES OUT OF HER HEAD and screaming in fear so hard that her THROAT BLED and somehow got even more terrifying as it went on

i had so much fun last night omg

[giddlygoat]

my brother can make me laugh without moving at all. he can make me laugh on command, just by existing, and there is no physical tell or indication that it is about to happen. it’s like he can will me to laugh and i will. of course we’re not telepathic, but we do speak in unison sometimes. we improvise like no one’s business. we could fool anyone into believing we are psychically linked. when i try to explain it, i sound silly saying it out loud, but i really CAN tell what he’s thinking. we exchange so much information just with a look. he can make me cry laughing and he doesn’t even have to move

Was doing so good holding it together today but now that I’m laying down and trying to sleep I’m tearing up and I can feel that I’m about to burst into tears any second now

The only way I can see Bi-Han being mean or cruel to Kuai is when he's younger its more out of jealousy. Have you seen how little kids sometimes get upset when their parents brings a new baby? It's basically 'How dare you replace me!?' sort of thing and then tantrum ensues.

Obviously they usually get over it but I could imagine for the first years of Kuai's life Bi-Han was definitely a jealous little kid before he got over himself.

I know it sometimes happens, however in my experiences, how a child reacts to a new baby is often connected to how parents raised and prepared said child for the possibility. All kids will deal with the arrival of younger siblings in their own way, but parents contributed a lot to the situation. If someone spoil a kid to the point the kid is proverbial center of the universe and all family attention is only focused on them but then suddenly don’t have anymore a time for said kid because everything now resolved about the new baby, then it is hard to blame the older sibling for feeling resentful against the new member of the family that “stole” all the love. And as much as I can see your point, I feel like acting out of jealousy wouldn’t be true to Bi-Han, at least not in the original timeline. Like, the resentment could be there, sure, but considering how

the boy was chosen to be a Lin Kuei at birth and

his father, then-current Sub-Zero, came from a family already serving Lin Kuei for a few generations, 

I suspect Bi-Han’s training was already part of his upbringing since he was born. Maybe not fully the physical aspect, but the iron discipline and obedience (the last one may not always work though). Thus I think that even when baby Kuai Liang came into picture, and later their youngest sister, the father’s attention was aimed mainly at the first-born and preparing him for Lin Kuei life, so he could bring honor to their family and serve the clan well. Bi-Han could be jealous of baby Kuai Liang, could be sad for being forced to share mother’s love with someone else - and that one depends a lot what kind of mother she was on daily basis, so for all we know, Bi-Han actually could enjoy being the big, helpful brother and making her proud in the process - but I don’t think he had a reason to feel threatened by new kid’s presence if the father paid him special attention and spent time to train him for future life. And well, I don’t think kid Bi-Han was allowed to have tantrum attacks over “trivial” matters if he was meant to continue the true family tradition soon. Like, I can't imagine Bi-Han being raised as a spoiled child when father - and maybe mother, depending if she was a Lin Kuei herself or not - already knew his son was meant to start a proper training for assassin life.

Did you guys know I miss my son?

For after the Last Battle and the overthrow of Morgoth, when the Valar gave Elros and Elrond a choice to belong either to the kin of the Eldar or to the king of Men, it was Elros who voyaged over sea to Númenor following the star of Eärendil; whereas Elrond remained among the Elves and carried on the lineage of King Elwë.

Note 19 - And also that of Turgon; though he preferred that of Elwë, who was not under the ban that was laid on the Exiles.

- Problem of Ros, HoME XII

Every once in a while I remember this passage and am sent spiralling into the orbit.

Elrond saw the disaster that were the Noldor and went 'nope, I am staying out of that drama. Sindar, here I come' and he's so valid for it. Living up to the as wise as a wizard. He looks at the elven side of his family tree, goes 'do you think I am stupid' and chooses the least problematic branch.

Y'know it was REALLY goddamn evil and nefarious that the oil fields gave my mom (a single mom working 3 jobs to raise 2 kids) a single $5,000 check in exchange for her signing a nondisclosure to never complain about them.

Of course we fucking took the money. Even with her working 1 full-time job and 2 part-time jobs, she barely made over $1,000 a month. Of course she took the money. We though about moving but we still couldn't afford it. She was so frugal with it, though. It did give us a sliver of financial security for years.

But goddamn. $5,000 is table scraps to them, and they bought her silence with it because she couldn't refuse the chance to slightly lessen the weight of poverty on her family.
