god i hate liking genshin bc if i ever had to tell anyone what i like about the game its like. well. it has potential. to be good. if the writers, character designers, gameplay designers, etc etc didnt suck ass.
#getting attached to 2 of the newest characters and like#as much as i want to have their relationship developed further so that more ppl see why theyre interesting#i know that hyv could never possibly make them interesting#at least in a way that satisfies me and perhaps the other fans of these characters' relationship#like they would just make all potential conflict complexities and issues go away.#and listen im not saying that all characters need to have issues and trauma and etc#not every story needs to end in tragedy. right.#but thats the thing w this game. they NEVER let characters have bad endings. or have moments of struggle#well... almost ever i guess. that one xiao quest was good#BUT LIKE#IT ANNOYS ME SO MUCH BC ITS LIKE THATS WHY IM DRAWN TO THESE CHARACTERS#BC THEY HAVE POTENTIAL TO BE INTERESTING AND DEEP#and then they just arent.#=_=#not to mention the racism in the designs and the lack of diversity in body types and the poor gameplay design#and the way they shove pointless subplots w NPCs into the main story when theres clearly#a more pressing matter that the story has to focus on#it makes me sooooooo mad. like no i do not want hyv to touch these 2 characters Ever actually

advice for you based on your favourite pasta
Jeff- Are you excited about the When We Were Young festival? I hope Dan and Phil come out with the gay flag and kiss just for you <3. How are your anger issues? Playing your music at volume 100 isn’t a substitute for therapy. Please go hug someone babe, having Jeff as your favorite in 2023 means you definitely need it.
Ben- I just know you’re funny, like your friends fucking love you. Either play video games or have a creative hobby. Ben stans are literally the best. Probably have awesome taste in music. My advice for you? It’s okay if you aren’t the happy one all the time, you aren’t a robot babe <3
Jack- I get academic overachiever vibes from you, like, you’re smart, and you know you’re smart. You probably read and have a letterboxd account. You’re effortlessly cool, and probably hot, but it’s okay to fail sometimes, you don’t have to be perfect <3
Toby- Hello mentally ill gay people no im jk all of you are mentally ill and gay its the creepypasta fandom lolz. You probably feel like you’re really annoying and cope via having Toby as your comfort character. Either you’ve been in therapy since you were twelve or you need to go. Try and prioritise yourself babe <3
Helen- ITS OKAY TO DO THINGS ALONE!!!!! You probably feel insecure about your lack of friends, or you feel like your social life sucks. Doing things alone is okay, it doesn’t make you a loser. You probably like art, and you’re probably fucking great at it. Don’t compare yourself to anyone babe <3
Liu- Do you have family trauma and/or feel like you’re gonna be alone for the rest of your life? Yeah checks out. Spend more time with people, I promise they aren't all bad. Go pet a dog, stand in the sunshine. Life is great sometimes <3
Jane- psst… it's okay to let your guard down. Idk if you knew that, but here I am telling you anyway. You’re a bad bitch, I know. You’re hot, I know. But not everyone wants to hurt you. Also, stop trying to take care of everyone around you <3
Nina- you probably got/get bullied for being different. I think its hot that you’re different. Sure, you belong in a 2007 scene meet-up and i’m sorry you aren’t there rn, but you have SO MANY secret admirers. Keep being you babe, don’t change for anyone <3
Clockwork- okay i’m just gonna say it. Sometimes being mean to people and pushing them away is a bad coping mechanism. I am saying this because I have the same coping mechanisms. We are the same. Please for the love of god stop clenching your jaw and let your guard down!!! <3
Sally- Either you’re one of the younger fans or you have serious trauma. You can’t go to places or listen to certain songs without wanting to throw up. Your hands are burning from holding onto your inner child so tightly. Hang in there, it’s gonna get better <3
#creepypasta#ben drowned#eyeless jack#homocidal liu#jeff the killer#clockwork#creepypasta headcanons#creepypasta imagines#creepypasta x reader#helen otis#ticci toby#jane the killer#nina the killer#sally williams

i think it’s funny? like the spaces thing? everything that girl said is what he gotten hate over the past few weeks. bitching about me writing about riize when everything was happening as if i was the only blog to do so? 😭 “she doesn’t see them as people only characters” and you can’t come and talk to me straight up and instead you have to go behind my back and bitch about me instead? like yes i found it stupid people were acting surprised about riize’s brand reputation falling when people are literally boycotting the group like we knew this was going to happen i don’t understand what’s wrong with me saying that but i digress.
people cannot handle sitting and discussing things with the people they have an issue with because they don’t want to deal with listening to proper and logical reasonings for things, instead they have to go to others who agree with them because they need validation.
yes i’m a smut writer, yes i posted about riize and seunghan during october. i also took a break from posting out of respect for them and so i could process everything that happened. i am most definitely not the only account who began posting smut about riize again so don’t fucking label me as some sort of villain when multiple blogs were doing it too and do not sit and accuse me of not viewing them as real people.
“she claims to be ot7” yeah ive also had to sit and explain to people why im so distant from my feelings and why i was so logical about this situation but slay i guess, melobin’s feelings and personal trauma doesn’t matter when you’re selfish 😚✌️ also bringing up ninona and saying the same thing as everyone else says because no one has any actual evidence or proof that she’s ot6 .. give it a rest
anyway i love you all im really not doing well right now so i haven’t been active but i just wanted to make a little post about it bc i saw the video and i just find it bizarre. thank you for being so patient with me and hopefully i’ll be able to feel a little brighter and be more active soon 💗

zebruh codakk headcanons!
this is me talking about something non tcc related. zebruh is my favorite character besides marvus. please note that somethings such as his physical appearance will not be totally accurate to his sprites as these are headcanons.
also, the normal headcanons are short because i have WAY too many for one post. plus im sleepy. and dont want to put them all down. the other ones are copy and pasted from where i kept them. they may not be written very well, but i cant change them right now.
also! also. hes SUPPOSED to be INCREDIBLY pathetic. thats why these headcanons are like that.
normal hiveswap
to me, a trolls height and weight match their blood color. in my head, indigos are usually above average height and are pretty muscular.
however, zebruh is rather short and fat. he is a short fat man no one will EVER change my mind about that.
zebruh has self harm scars layered on top of each other and he has vitiligo in the form of zebra stripes all over his skin.
i also think he would be a trans man who constantly forgets to wear his binder. he just seems like the type of trans guy who tries to “act cis”.
hes also autistic because it fits him incredibly well.
˙✧˖°🦓 ༘ ⋆。˚
“i dont speak to whores” mentality while being a total whore himself.
he uses the troll version of shedtwt and he competes with the lowbloods on there even though hes already a total fucking loser.
he has terrible mental health issues and is a pretty depressed incel who spends his time in his room aside from spending daddys money on shit for concerts because he needs to see his man.
a personal headcanon of mine thats also a projection is that zebruh was sexually assured when he was younger. specifically by a purpleblood who has the same look as marvus which is the reason he has clung onto him and acts the way he does.
he constantly remakes his accounts every time that marvus blocks him. he will never be getting rid of him.
his bulge size is significantly below average for an indigo, but he acts like its not a problem (it totally is).
his moirail is galekh and he is constantly annoyed with him, but sometimes when zebruh says something so incredibly questionable he cant help but be concerned.
˙✧˖°🦓 ༘ ⋆。˚
humanswap
zebruhs parents are names Malchov and Elise Codakk. his father is russian and his mother is french so he is both.
he has the same look as he does in normal hiveswap (same height, weight, scars, vitiligo) and he is also still a trans man. he still has the same trauma and self harm/eating disorders as well. hes still autistic too.
he speaks french and russian fluently and has a slight accent. he tries to use it to impress marvus (spoiler alert, it works).
˙✧˖°🦓 ༘ ⋆。˚
again, these headcanons are copy and pasted from where i had kept them originally. if i already mentioned something here then dont worry about it:o).
when he was little he would steal his dads bowties and wear them and then when he finally got to buy his own bowtie it was like a whole thing. a HUGE deal.
when he was a kid his mom wld get him ready for bed and theyd have a whole routine and she wld sit on his bed and brush his long hair while he brushed his my little ponies hair and blabbed on abt something silly.
zebruhs dad wld always try to teach zebruh abt business and big important stuff like that but he wouldnt get it and theyd jst argue back and forth and his mom wld chime in and say that zebruh acts just like his dad.
zebruh likes old music like frank sinatra and paul anka and marvuses music is the only new music he listens to.
his moms name is Elise Codakk and she is a fierce business woman who runs her companies with an iron fist while at the same time being an excellent, caring mother to zebruh.
his dads name is Malchov Codakk and he also owns companies and businesses and is very well respected and slightly feared by his business partners. he tends to be very strict and tough on zebruh but he means it well…..he wld literally kill if something ever happened to him.
zebruh got his fashion sense from both his parents - when he was little always stating that he wanted to dress like his dad so his mom took him out and got him his own little vest and dress shirt.
at first his mom was so sad that he wanted to be a man because he has a pretty face and gorgeous long hair but overtime she was his biggest supporter and would swiftly correct anyone who said differently.
his dad also probably accidentally uses the wrong pronouns and name occasionally and his mom just very casually corrects him.
even though at the time of my au zebruh is older he still will look to his mom and dad for comfort. he’ll cling to his mom and sob like a baby while she comforts him and runs her hands through his hair. with his dad its more logical comfort, his dad giving him logical advice as well as comfort (he gives him the occasional hug too).
despite what it seems to most people zebruh is very close to his dad and looks up to him.
when he was a kid his mom would read him french stories and fairytales to go to sleep but sometimes his dad would do it instead and hed tell him russian stories instead, specifically the rlly scary ones, and zebruh would get so freaked out.
zebruh really wants to impress both of his parents and be the best son possible, he really wants to be able to inherit the companies and be seen as a good business man by them.
elise got pregnant with him before her and malchov were married which at first was extremely shameful for them but once they had him they were jst absolutely thrilled.
on that note though malchov was surprised to see zebruh had vitiligo, inheriting it from his dad.
when zebruh was in elementary school his parents wldve gotten called in so many times for him being mean to other kids but they wld defend him with their lives and say he did no wrong - they raised him better then that and they were jst ignorant.
his parents encourage zebruh to do whatever he wants and are happy to support him no matter what he does.
hes into russian history because of his dad. his dad was a soviet and gifted him all his uniforms and pins.
he also the type of guy to be like “the commies were right” and then tell someone to kill themselves bcuz they point out the commies wldnt like his gay tranny ass.
humanswap - marvbruh headcanons
marvus actually does find the fact that zebruh can speak multiple languages attractive in a kind of “its not uncommon for people to do that but youre cute doing it” way and he also found it charming that he was so persistent.
even after they started dating zebruh would still be trying to impress marvus by taking him out and doing all this fancy shit while marvus is simultaneously telling him he doesnt care abt that fancy shit he jst wants to be with him.
marvus kisses the scars on zebruhs arms and it drives him absolutely wild.
whenever they first started having sex zebruh could NOT take that shit all the way in and he was absolutely flabbergasted by how big his dick was (gaaahh….) but overtime they figured it out together and they made it work.
sex can also either be super kinky or super vanilla and sweet depending on the mood…..and i feel like marvus wldnt be like super huge on touchy affectionate shit but zebruh always wants to cuddle with him afterwards so it ended up growing on him.
they kiss and hold hands in public and call each other stupid pet names and say dumb pick up lines and do shitty flirting with each other.
zebruh would probably accidentally start ranting and being feisty over small disagreements because he doesnt know how to talk or admit that hes wrong so marvus just makes him shut up and calm down so he can be normal.
marvus writes music abt zebruh and zebruh gets so giggly and giddy over it.
zebruh will ramble and rant about the things he likes in the middle of ANYTHING and depending on the situation marvus will either just pause what theyre doing and listen to him or he will subtly hint that he shld talk abt it later.
whenever zebruh introduced marvus to his parents they didnt believe that he was a famous singer snd they still dont believe it.
his parents have walked in on the two of them b4 when they were getting EXTREMELY freaky…..a vry awkward conversation occurred afterwards.
i feel like marvus would let zebruh top if he wanted to - hed be so bad and awkward abt jt but hed be so overly confident at the same time.
zebruh for sure likes to wear marvuses clothes, especially his big show coat because i can imagine that hed have a musk kink and bro would be INHALING that shit.
zebruh probably takes zoloft and is constantly tired so he jst falls asleep whenever and marvus would let him sleep in his lap and not move until he wakes up.
body worship. on both ends. marvus loves his chubby men and it makes zebruh feel so loved while on the other hand he cannot keep his hands and eyes off of marvuses big ass tits.
they totally give each other gifts and stuff whenever possible.
i feel like marvus wld have a tongue piercing and he would switch the ball color to be blue.
they also wear matching heart necklaces becuz i said so.
sometimes zebruh will freak the fuck out during sex and they have to stop but marvus lowkey wldnt care he would jst wanna make him feel better.
hed also start projecting too and accidentally start saying that other persons name and shit and when he catches himself he would NOT be able to stop apologizing abt it.
they totally go out on dinner dates and zebruh dresses all fancy and nice while marvus wld dress like a homeless man.
marvuses hands can definitely fit over zebruhs hips and stomach perfectly.
zebruh would help marvus do his make up and hair before his shows, wanting to just be included and help in some way (he doesnt need the help but he lets him anyway bcuz hes cute when he does it).
marvus isnt easily flustered but as soon as zebruh starts calling him pet names and flirting with him in his other languages he gets rlly flustered.
whenever marvus is taking off his makeup zebruh would totally step in and do it for him, finding it so intimate and also rlly liking how he looks without it.
zebruh would lowkey go on marvuses social media accounts and block the hoes that are tryna get with him while marvus is jst like “do whatever you want babe i dont care”.
normal hiveswap - toxic marvbruh headcanons
i dont think marvus is actually this bad. this is just for the toxic version of their relationship.
marvus never made their relationship public and would always prefer to keep it private unless it benefited him in some way.
marvus definitely flirts with random people bcuz. of his whole. superstar status and zebruh isnt really a fan of it but marvus always tells him that hes jst doing it to make other people happy and he doesnt mean it.
their sex is probably the only good thing about their relationship, they have it quite often and its always really good. marvus is super good at sex while zebruh just kinda lays down and takes it….it always ends with him having some new cuts and bruises.
zebruh is super lovey and cuddly and always wants to cuddle afterwards but marvus isnt the type to be that affectionate. so. he kind of just lets zebruh do whatever he wants while he pretty much pays no attention to him.
instead of giving the people the fan service they want he always will stick his hands down zebruhs pants or up his shirt on his tits so that its just giving the fans something to project onto instead.
technically yes they aren’t publicly together however people see zebruh out with marvus and all the shit that happens between them so they jst kind of assume hes some whore he keeps around for fun.
zebruh really likes his hair and takes good care of it so marvus always messes it up in some way. he likes to pull on his ponytail or hair in general so that it gets fucked up….and he also likes to yank him up by it and shake his head roughly with it.
marvus also really enjoys getting his bulge sucked ‘n shit so he makes zebruh suck it all the time, specifically either making him choke on it b4 cumming down his throat or pulling out and cumming all over his face (he definitely jst leaves it there for zebruh to deal with).
zebruh suffers from awful mental issues and doesnt have any kind of help with it so he cuts himself a lot and when marvus walks in on it he jst gets really horny and instead of helping he jst. jerks off on his cuts and cums on them (they definitely get infected).
sometimes zebruh goes through really bad periods of depression and doesnt take care of himself and marvus finds it lowkey kind of embarrassing so thats the only time he helps him so that he isnt being such an embarrassment.
sometimes zebruh very specifically tries to make himself look really pretty and done up so that marvus will at least notice and maybe say something nice about it but. he never actually notices.
marvus likes to fuck zebruh backstage b4 shows jst for fun and he always fucks him with his back facing his chest bcuz if anyones gonna catch em then they better see zebruh instead of him. and also….he likes to grab his tits and dig his claws/nails into them and scratch them up as much as he can.
+ he also probably likes to fuck his tits too. hed force zebruh down and make him hold his tits together so he can fuck them real good and cum all over them.
marvus definitely gets zebruh like insanely drunk, knowing he cant handle alcohol well, just so that he can take advantage of him really easily with little to no resistance…sometimes its nice to not have to worry abt helping his boner and only having to focus on his own.
marvus has definitely broken something on zebruh b4….he can get really rough. zebruhs tail is also probably fucked up from being pulled on so many times.
marvus will finger zebruh rlly roughly, literally just forcing his fingers in his nook and then fucking him incredibly harsh….sometimes he will even do it in public jst to fuck with him and make him embarrassed. hes always so sore and hurt afterwards and sometimes cant walk quite right as if marvus used his bulge instead of his fingers.
galekh has also definitely taken note of how poorly zebruh gets treated, so he will tell him bluntly that hes in a terrible relationship but he just tells him off because marvus loves him, he just has a weird way of showing it.
edit: these are the sprites i made of him i forgot to add them

Hate to intervene on the discussion about the genuine finale, but Tommy did apologize previously to the nuke going off and he did it before Dream even killed him, Im not sure if it was intended for him to say the apology so early on if at all but it did make me a little confused when the reaction to the apology was dream focusing on tommy dismissing the revival book and then killing him. Its not that out of character or anything, it made sense for Dream to be paranoid and lash out especially considering Tommy accused him of being the same person the whole time within his apology, but it did make me feel bad for tommy, as well as the fact he didn't get a sorry in return but then again had the nuke not dropped and no reset, Dream probably would of apologized for his own actions once he really processed what was going on which is rlly the only issues i had with that final convo
Regardless on my opinion on that part of the stream, you've definietly highlighted why many dislike it and I completely agree. Dream and Tommy had closure, while pretty much no one else in the server really did, not sure if punz even did, many character arcs didn't rlly end, stuff was left ambigious, ranboo had their ending on twitter, we got nothing about dreamxd. killing staged duo off is just a repeat of everything before and it just makes the moral that violence is the answer to trauma and multiple characters in dsmp use violence as revenge and the ending having that would just be like saying that was okay. But the fact it instead took this understanding morally grey approach and ended that destructive cycle gave it a much better moral. Solid essay btw.
[context]
Always feel free to intervene, just know you’ll probably get an essay in response lol. ;D <3
In regards, to Tommy’s apology [clip] I am of the opinion that anything Tommy said before he died was not really genuine because he was stalling for time. He only asks Dream what his point of view is the server because he needed to stall. And even when Dream is explaining his side [clip], instead of really understanding it or even having remorse he mutes and says “Come on, Tubbo.” He’s not really listening, and his apology shortly after isn’t really sincere. He keeps repeating how Dream was always like this, so if he was apologizing it wasn’t because he realizes he actually hurt Dream. He even questions how Dream can be upset about burning down George’s house “it wasn’t even your house.” Language like “you could’ve got over that” tells me he isn’t seeing the point. He does not see how he might be in the wrong nor how much he hurt Dream.
So honestly, I think this apology is really just manipulation, trying to get Dream to stay. And honestly, that makes sense, because if you want someone to stay you’re not going to keep pissing then off, or at least he learned this because that was his first strategy. But that was only making them want to leave or kill him, so he changes tactics, getting Dream to talk [clip] “take as long as you need.” So yea, it doesn’t really count in my mind, just as Dream’s “I’m sorry” in prison doesn’t necessarily count.
If however the nuke hadn’t happened, and Tommy had actually apologized, now beginning to understand Dream more, then perhaps Dream would also. But to be honest that would be pretty out of character for both. Character growth can only go so far in one stream.
And I think Dream doesn’t feel sorry, not really. I think he regrets things getting out of hand and going further than they should have, but I think he’s so hurt by Tommy that he feels justified in his lashing out. And unless, Tommy were to express actual remorse for his actions and see them as wrong vs the “that was just me having fun with my friends” we got, then I don’t think Dream would apologize.
If the nuke hadn’t happened, I don’t necessarily see Tommy changing his behavior, only his view of Dream. I see him still being Tommy and pissing Dream off, just not viewing Dream as this evil devil out to get him. So honestly the reset was probably good because might as well go out on this nice moment when they understand where the audience can be optimistic about what could’ve happened vs seeing what the actual aftermath would have been. Certainly better and different but I don’t think things would change as much as we’d like to think.
Certainly Dream and Tommy had a satisfying wrap up where some other characters did not, but I would say it is pretty fitting that they would have a more dramatic actual resolution considering they have been the center of a lot of conflicts from the very start.
I do think though Punz did complete his character arc, perhaps not as satisfying as we’d like but still. Throughout the whole thing he has been in the background and more secretly Dream’s ally, but finally he was able to stand beside Dream and speak his truth, and be openly his friend, openly defend him and have his back. That was a good ending for him. Instead of being a bystander like in the disc confrontation this time he got to speak up and be heard. He finally got to die alongside Dream, instead of watching Dream die for him. He finally got to be included. It’s not perfect or as well thought out, but it works.
Have another essay I guess lol, glad you liked the other. <3 <3 and yea for sure sending a good message to the audience is super important (again something that Supernatural failed at) and to say let’s talk it out and try and see each others point of views instead of just continuing the cycle of violence is certainly a very important message to highlight. :)
#mmmm good thoughts#<3 <3#hello there#dsmp analysis#dsmp finale#did someone order an essay?#c!dream#dsmp#dreblr#dream smp#dsmpblr#c!dream and c!tommy#c!tommyinnit#c!tommy#c!discduo#c!punz#c!stagedduo#lol turns out other characters can manipulate as well… crazy hot take XD

So the polycule talked me into playing Corruption of Champions under the me-bait of calling it research.
It's actually very fun, the problem is i keep having the rpg worry of "oh no i just spent 5 days looking for wood and nails, what if i miss Plot Events?" and then remembering those really only depend on me popping up with specific stat levels.
So far I have an ant wife with 25 children [and counting] building a subterranean network down the way, a monk named Jojo helping me stave off corruption while watching me try very hard to not drop shit on myself while building a house. Because he's not helping. Which, fair, he's in his anime meditation of angst. I have 6 kids with this goblin lady that keeps showing up at random. And a litter of mouse babies with a mouse girl that was like "listen i need to repopulate my village/rebuild my people and you're not a rape happy corruption beast. Help?" and i was like "ok sure" and then we became friends and i think she likes me after i helped deliver the babies. I keep trying to visit her and check on the kiddos but a ghost in the ruins is super into me and keeps intercepting me. C'mon ma'am they're all gonna think i'm skipping child support. I'm also in a relationship with a chronically ill lizard guy that's teaching me magic. A wolf lady on the guard of the only safe town i've found so far that's got severe loneliness issues that she drowns in alcohol [we talked about it, and i told her she doesn't have to change things if she doesn't want to, but being aware of why she leans on drink is important]. A catgirl i'm slowly trying to train into being a guard so she can have literally any life that isn't "i live in an alley behind the pawn shop and live off stolen milk". She's sweet but also slow going on the authority learning because she's seen the other side and yeah. I wish her story was more "and you can come adventure with me c:" instead of "listen, the only skills you got are be a cop because all that takes is hitting things".
Also i found a gargoyle that was abused by her former master and has trauma around sex. I take my time to reassure her and learn about her and help her clean up the cathedral she's in.
Also there's a bunny dancer that's zero'd in on me but since i keep forgetting to go to the bar i've seen her 1 whole time. Also there's a cupcake seller that i'm 90% sure is supposed to just be nymph pinkie pie.
All this is very fun but also i'm sitting here wondering how the reality warping that lets you travel around easily effects the environment. And how the time dilation wrapped into the pregnancy kink would effect the ecology. Because if a goblin takes like 3 days max to have two kids, and i can fuck more than one at a time, that means there should be hella goblins. The game mentions, however, there are factors that curb the population but doesn't say what. Am deeply curious. Also deeply curious what importing the ant wife from the desert is going to do to the forest, but that's more long term.
Also there's like. dungeons? to clear and explore? but i keep being very sure i'm gonna die if i go in there so every time i see one in like. the desert the sphynx is like "you gonna go in?" "maybe next time" "you wanna fuck?" "nah im looking for nails"
I also keep trying to fight the antlion monsters. Which just leads into it cooing that we're not so different because my character isn't 100% Big Man Of Fuck Mountain Masc, before knocking me up with eggs. Which is fine, but i can only assume my pants are a fucking lost cause at this point.
I also befriended the giant turtle lady in the lake.
A narrative running trend i'm noticing is a wild amount of loneliness and isolation brought on by how others react to peoples bodies. The violence of the actual demon invasion is one thing, but the knock on effects of how its changed the biology and culture of the remaining survivors is very interesting. I'm also noticing a heavy amount of "so the environment is also fucked up" in terms of literal and figurative pollution.
But what deeply keeps hooking me is that like... the premise begins with "If you, Chosen Yearly Sacrifice, do not enter this portal and Die Fighting, bad things will happen to the rest of us." Not demons, not monsters, not some incursion of horrible energy... just like. People getting sick. Crops failing. Bad weather. Which sure, could be related, but it's a much more mundane and expected-- grounded, i suppose-- occurrence. Meanwhile people on the other side of the portal are just like "listen, if its not trying to fuck me or kill me on sight, maybe i can talk with it bc goddamn" bc that's the every day for them. Its not even particularly shocking a danger to them anymore. Bad, certainly horrible, but very much a "yes this could happen" in the same way running out of water in the desert is an assumed danger. A matter of time sort of thing.
I know the creator most definitely did not intend someone to sit there and ponder, while doing fifty explore rounds for nails, the sociological impact of this whole thing. But i'm me and the game only manages to make me horny a few times every couple hours so i gotta ponder something.
Also my character's name is Fifi. He's very canine in appearance while also managing a v long beard and shaggy hair because i keep forgetting the barber exists. I forget many things exist. It's a problem.

yk the first couple of episode drops were a bit ehh to me but like.. these two just hit Right. maybe bc i knew what to expect pacing/story wise now? either way, they're def my faves so far, especially ep 5. that's my Favorite favorite :]
spoilers for both eps under the cut, mostly just me blabberin abt what i liked (warning: its alotta alastor)
for ep 5, at first i thought charlastors/radiobelles were winning (and while i don't ship it myself, i was happy for em) but then the realization of 'wait wait wait this isn't romo at all, alastors tryna be a FATHER FIGURE?!' hit instead and i went WILD bc thats 1000% my preferred dynamic for charlie and al. so uh.. yippee dadlastors, sorry charlastors..? gsjahafdaj
also the "Ha! Fuck you." im normal im normal im NORMAL im SOOOO FUCKIN NORMAL (IM CRAZY IM VRAZY I CRAZY IM CRASTY IM FUCKI)
mimzy!! (mimzie??) her intro was abrupt, but she seems like a doll, and her hug with al was real cute. tho i do think she needed that metaphorical kick in the ass abt al's thoughts when it comes to her leeching off his strength for protection. about that..
ALASTOR ACTUALLY CARES. HE CARES. (seemingly, at least). LIKE, HE ACTUALLY LEGITIMATELY, NON-FANONILY, GIVES A DAMN ABT THE HOTEL. HE WENT OUT OF THE WAY TO PROTECT THE PLACE AND TOLD MIMZY TO LEAVE IF SHE DIDN'T COME FOR REDEMPTION. MAYBE ITS IN HIS OWN WEIRD-GUARDED-PETTY WAY BUT FUCK FUCK HOOOLLLYY FUCK ALASTOR CARES
and one more thing b4 i move onto ep 6, i've already seen some ppl comparing what al did to husk in the hall to angel and val's dynamic, and while i do agree the two are both trapped in unsavory deals (loser, baby literally confirms this) i don't think al's ANYWHERE near as bad as val. was what he did fucked up? oh, yes, definitely. but it really?? shouldn't be surprising??? al's in hell ‘n has all this status for a reason, so i was really just waitin for a moment like that to happen. however, it didn't do any lasting damage. at least i really wouldn't say so. most it did was scare the shit out of husk for a minute, nowhere close to what val does to angel on the daily (see: episode 6). tho im willing to admit i might be lookin thru rose colored glasses bc i love al as a character. my opinion might change when/if the actual conditions of al and husks deal are revealed, but as of rn, i think al acted as he did there bc husk attacked a reeeally sensitive subject. he would've just been the petty bitch he always is if husk said like.. anythin else. oh and uhh yeah im abt 85% sure he and lilith have SOMETHING goin on. idk who the hell else would be powerful enough to have alastor on a leash
..oh yeah, lastly, lucifer was cool :] silly silly guy (with lotsa trauma) that hit me right in the daddy issues. funny tho, i rlly dont have much to say abt the guy despite the ep literally being focused on him. his song with charile was spectacular though, i need to listen to it on its own immediately
okokok, episode 6, finally, hopefully shorter than the mess of text above
first off. vaggie = fallen angel theorists, i would like to bow down and apologize for ever doubting you. i was one of the skeptics, i really was, but the show did it in a way that (albeit rushed, but what hasn't been so far?, thaaanks, 8-episode limit..) made it seem believable, with assdam calling her out for it..
but putting adam aside, uh, lute?? maam?? holy fuck, step on me??? please???? i mean uh. sick character design yk ahah ^^
whats her name.. emily? the younger seraphim girl, i liked her, she was a cutie. she really did just seem like heavens version of charlie. and the older seraphim woman i (expectedly) have mixed feelings abt. i feel like all would've be great it adam got outta her damn ear cause she might've actually be down to try the hotel with em gone.. angel was doing so well
speaking of angel, ANGEL!! oh lookit that character development, charlie's gonna be so fuckn proud!!! also, CHERRI!!!! saw someone else say cherris the devil on angels shoulder while husks the (heh) angel, and i have to say i agree. they both want the best for him, they just have different ways of goin about it.
unsurprisingly, fuck Valentino. although i did notice he was wearing a dress today, so. (through gritted teeth) slay.
thiiink that's all i gotta say for today?? besides the fact that next week is gonna be agonizing, ofc :] buckle up ppl we might get a genuine, emotional chaggie fight come next thursday
..oh yeah!! molly!!! we briefly saw molly!!!! i hope youre absolutely thriving girl, you deserve no less <3

Hii~ so this is a question for Umei, if thats okay? I really resonate with how she writes God in her stories but im new to all of this and i wasn't sure what..denomination(?) She is? I have religious trauma and ive been trying to work through it and just what she writes...how she writes about her faith and how she incorporates it into her stories..it really really speaks to me and it's made me interested in learning more but im not really sure where to go from here and what resources i should be looking into?
From Umei,
Firstly, I'm really sorry that people you should have been able to trust have taken advantage of you. You're so, so brave for facing up to that and keeping going despite it. I'd suggest finding an up-to-date translation of the bible as a starting point; I like the New International Version (NIV) but there are plenty of other options out there. One that you find readable -or listenable, if you want an app, there are online translations- and just reading the Word. Start with the New Testament and the gospels, to get used to who Jesus is in his own words, but do read all of it. Jesus says that if we know him, we know the Father (John 8:19 and John 14:9) and we get to know Jesus' character through reading the bible. I know I'm still finding new revelations in my daily readings. Prayer! You can talk to God directly any time you want, and it's good to make space in your day just to listen to him. That's all he wants from us: that we be close to him. If you want more material on how to interpret what's in the gospels and hear good, solid theology I can recommend Ellel Ministries International, as they're non-denominational, have local centres all over the world and excellent online material as well as courses you can take. I know the director, who is a really kind and humble guy, if that helps! Don't be afraid to take your time. The bible explicitly instructs us to test everything against the word of God, to make sure it's trustworthy, so don't feel you need to rush into picking a church. Get to know Jesus through the Word, get to know God generally through prayer, and know that God won't push. Anyone or anything trying to force you into something you're not ready for is not of God. God created free will! You get to choose what you are up for, every single step. Safe travels!
From Izzy,
First off, I'm quite fine with being asked to relay a message to Umei. She can be quite hard to reach otherwise
Second, as to religious trauma... There's quite a large difference between people who claim to be Christian and people who are. That is Faith
Real faith is amazing to behold and motivates people to be kind and help others, to let them know that they are not alone in their struggles. It is the hand held out in friendship, to help, to cheer and comfort. It is the ear that will listen, the heart that chooses to heal
Fake faith is a social performance, complete with social policing and ostracizing of those who fail to perform believably. That's how you get fear-mongering, zealotry to the word and no actual True Christian behavior, because they're not living the principles of the faith
Izzy lives in the Bible Belt of the US, so Izzy's seen both. In all kinds of denominations. A Church doesn't determine your faith, it determines your community. Your faith is determined by you and your relationship with God.
Congrats for having kept that hand out for Umei to have reached. You had the faith to reach out and you've been answered for it.
Third, the KJV (King James Version) of the Bible is the most popular, but it's also the one of the oldest modern translations. Like 1611, or 1612 Izzy wants to say? It has issues inherent in that, as it was written to stop the fracturing of the Church (Calvin and the Protestant Movement says hi) by providing a cohesive book for the common man and not just the church. By virtue of being widely available and so popular before printing became a thing, it's also the version most prone to being misused by anyone who means to do so, because most people don't read it or truly study it
Anyway there's been a lot of scholarship and debate about how things were translated, because languages have nuance that doesn't always translate. There's a lot of contextual difference between Ruler, King and Tyrant for example. So if you want a bible with more pure scholarship behind it, a lot of the modern translations are what you want. There's probably annotated versions if you look.
Lastly, as Izzy's not particularly devout by common definitions and not a dedicated scholar of theology, Izzy can't really recommend any sources to look up. Izzy's certain there there's lectures of seminary classes on the internet somewhere to watch though. Seminary classes being meant to train priests, rabbis and the like, you can see what they're meant to be teaching and how they're supposed to teach it
may kind thoughts find and comfort you, Izzy
#Izzy answers#Umei answers#Nonny#Umei is a lot more fundamentally Christian than Izzy#Izzy is more culturally Christian than a dedicated church goer as is a lot of America#and yet#Izzy has actually read through all of the bible (KJV) twice#Izzy's also aware that the KJV is not the greatest of translations in some aspects#and due to the KJV's age there's a different level of assumed knowledge and understanding#because of the times and what was taught to the common man then#Izzy doesn't really like church as a social construct irl#but it exists as an institution and has influence and thus power#which should be good for those who go for sharing community and affirming faith with others#and if none local appeal -you can just not go and still be Christian#again the Church doesn't determine your faith; that's you and the God you pray to

Hello! I'm the Anon who asked about Bruce being self-aware.
When I said "Also, there's something of a difference between being self-aware about himself and when it comes to his kids." I meant that he says or does super hurtful stuff that he just doesn't seem to think was wrong or reflect upon when it went downhill or realising too late or sb had to spell it out for him.
Examples being:
him reading Dick's diary after taking him in as a ward to figure out what Dick wants instead of just asking, thus creating the Robin suit after Dick's designs (God, it was a Batman or Robin: year one comic book, I'm pretty sure but I don't rememer which),
saying "commendable" instead of just "I'm proud of you" to Damian (basically his "emotional constipation" as a whole, like being unable to understand or even recognize his kids feelings and then failing to say just the most normal praising/comforting/loving things.),
ignoring (or acting as if) when Damian apologizes for direspecting/ignoring previous orders and holds a cute speech about trying to listen now but Bruce just turns around like "Did you say something?",
not telling Dick that Jason is now Robin or that Jason died even though Bruce said he would call Dick (yeah, he was being petty or grief stricken, but still)
Tim's sixteenth birthday "present"
I hate to bring this up but the whole Batarang to the NeckTM situation in UTRH. His resurrected son confronts him and he fails to show a single emotion, instead immediately debating ethics and morals with him.
anything with Jason in future comics where Bruce beats him up and acts like Jason asked for it or that Bruce didn't have a choice but to do that.
bringing Jason back to Ethiopia to the warehouse where he died, so Bruce could maybe find a way to resurrect Damian after Heretic killed him (I think it was Heretic, but maybe it was sb else)
beating up any of his kids for any reason. The most he should do willingly is defend himself with defensive moves only or seeking distance. But not charging in like he wants a fight.
sending only Damian to save Alfred from Bane, which just allowed for Damian to be captured and then having to watch Bane snap Alfred's neck, and then Bruce says to Damian's face "If I had been there, I could have saved him." (Bruce prioritised his own grief over his son's grief and trauma and all that)
Bruce tells Cass she doesn't need a real life and sectret identity, that she only needs a costume and a private batcave and she'd be fine
Bruce instigates a fight where he and Cass get drugged and can communicate about their feelings through fist fighting.
Taking/ Trying to take Robin away from sb for their "own good". I don't mean benching, but full on "You're not Robin anymore, never again." but then folding a few issues later anyway. (It could be seen as very shitty parenting ig)
Like you said, Bruce gets written very inconsistently and I tried not to cherry pick too much of what I wanted to say, so I made this mess of a bulleted list. While a lot of these examples do come from his communication issues, I still wanted to include them anyway because it's taken too far with some writers (can't say "I love you" or hug his kids, although he doesn't have a problem with doing that with Clark or Diana) or he doesn't reflect on those moments or he repeats them over and over again.
I swear I love Bruce, I'm not a hater!!! He's actually my favorite character!!! 😭😭😭
(Making this list really hurt. Just so you know.)
Hey listen, im going to answer these by number* and then probably delete this ask in a few hours because. I hate all of these!! Maybe 3 are in character!! I dont want this terrible Bruce on my blog!!! But also i dont want you to think i asked for clarification and then ignored you so feel free to send another ask when you see this lol. Or if I have once again missed the point.
* because I misunderstood this ask again and also most of these gave me hives lmao and also also I think like 75% could be answered with "we needed someone to mean to [character] and Bruce is convenient el oh el"
Anyways:
1. This one is in character, a little bit, because as much as we understand kids needing privacy now, i can see the way Bruce was raised (Alfred would have absolutely read his diary, that feels very in character for him) and the way Dick was (sneaking out to find Zucco) leading to him panicking and monitoring him as much as possible. That doesnt make it right mind you. The thing is if Dick hacked the bat computer Bruce would probably be proud of him, so not entirely hypocritical.
2. Also possibly in character, because again, thats how Alfred probably spoke to him. Not great, and i think the current Batman and Robin run does a much better job with their relationship, but can be chalked up to bad writing tbh.
3. No this is shitty writing. Sorry it just is!
4. This could be its own post but in summary: decisions made to launch another chracters solo or in order to make a different character look good are ignored. They wanted a Nightwing solo and decided a good launching point would be a big fight between Dick and Bruce. No thanks.
There have also been panels where Dick talks about ignoring Bruce’s calls during that time period, so this could be chalked up to mutual miscommunication if you insist. And i prefer the pre crisis origin for Jaybin, for multiple reasons.
5. I haven’t read this, ive heard of it, and its weird. It feels like point 4, but for Tim. The writers wanted a villain for his birthday comic, Bruce is right there.
6. Nah, Jason fucked around and he found out. He wanted a Batman that kills criminals, he just forgot he was also, now, a murderer and a criminal. Im only half kidding here, but the problem with UTRH is that exactly. Also the fact that Jason spent like six months doing absolutely horrible shit in Gotham, and that like 15 minutes before this showdown Bludhaven was blown up, Bruce has no idea if Dick is alive, and Jason mocks him for possibly losing another son. Also Jason is the one demanding Bruce cross his very personal boundaries here, ethics and morals are a very necessary part of the conversation!!
7. Anything where Bruce beats someone near death or uses lethal force is technically out of character. Jason comics outside of DITF and UTRH do not do enough work to give his actions the context necessary for them to be in character. RHATO #25 Is shit writing.
8. It was heretic, on Talias orders, and that whole storyline is dumb. This does feel in character, because Bruce response to grief has historically been 1 become Batman 2 attempt to commit suicide by cop/criminal so points for that consistency? I really hate this plot tho. Stop killing Bruce's kids!! The man is unstable as it is!!!
9. Out of character. I know it gets used for some god awful reason but it is so out of character unless the writer is willing to give it some serious work to provide context, (or unserious; see; Zur-En-Arrh in Gotham War. It's dumb, but it provides plausible context for Bruce beating his kids ie: it isn't technically him). Barring mind control, rejected.
10. No!! What the fuck!!! Bruce is not sending one of his kids alone against Bane there is an entire comic where he drugs them so that doesn't happen stop that!!!!
As a side note when I read that the first time I understood it as "I should not have sent you in alone because it was a task too big for you, If I had been there to help we could have saved him", but I am an optimist with too much faith in DC.
11. Absolutely bonkers statement from "please let me fire you from robin so you can have a normal life" McGee. Chalking this one up to racism and misunderstanding Bruce's character and that stupid "Bruce Wayne is the mask Hur dur" thing.
12. Ok this one feels in character actually. Somehow. At least they're talking?
13. Also feels in character actually. This one is weird because you'll see those stupid "child soldier" arguments side by side with "how dare Bruce take away Robin!". Pick a side. It's either bad parenting to let Robin exist or it's bad parenting to not let Robin exist, it can't be both!
And since these are comic books, and you need to engage with the genre in good faith or you'll have a miserable time of it, Robin exists! And is allowed to exist! At the same time, as a mentor Bruce has to be able to bench Robin, that is also a function of the mentor/mentee relationship! Basically - Bruce should be able to bench an injured/at risk Robin, but the writing for those scenarios usually wants him as a villain.
Taking away Robin completely only happens to Dick tho, and since it's after he gets shot on the job I do think it's in character.
As for "I tried not to cherry pick" babe please do so!! It's comics!! It's not canon unless you want it to be, and if you want these truly terrible Bruce's to be canon all the power to you! I want to set them on fire tho. And snort WFA like it's cocaine until all this is a bad memory jfc DC screen your writers for daddy issues I am begging you.
#asks#im sorry but heroes need to be good parents#its been a core part of Batman for years that he's good with kids this is such shitty writing#if you can't write conflict without assassinating someone's character you are ... a bad writer#you just are!!!#also your point where Bruce is perfectly fine with Clark and Diana is another tick ij the 'all this is daddy issues' column lmao

having symptoms and diagnoses commodified and consumed as social decoration has really served to devalue each node of potential support in the community.
i find this especially with care workers and support specialists whose job it is to listen to me explain why i am having trouble leaving the house, finding work or generally seeing any fucking point to waking up again.
'oh yeah i have that too and this is what i do to help with it' or 'oh yeh i get them all the time' ..coming from people who must be amazing illusionists to be able to have an employer consider them a reliable and consistent source of support for people who need it.
sure, yes, absolutely you can be in support roles and have the problems i have, but when i see someone who is part of 'the fully operating world' with the same issues it does not fill me with hope that 'ooh i can do it too!' ..it makes me feel like i am somehow not overcoming it hard enough.
the assumption i always make is that i am less than everybody else, and that is a trauma response not an opinion that can be magicked away by Empowerment Methods. it may be human nature (i really wouldnt know and im not saying that to be edgy) to echo what someone else is going through, or find commonality, but the commodification and ..kindof.. Trinketism going on with symptoms of mental illness is serving to devalue warning signs as a result of flooding the market.
its like everyone's playing in the ball pit and showing each other their toys like 'heehhee intrusive thoughts' or 'yeh i have to check the water heater before i leave the house' ..it just goes nowhere. mentioning a problem should be like holding up a bleeding hand. i think it should encourage immediate attention to the wound, not have everyone else quickly shoot up their hands going OOH OOH look i scraped my finger earlier! then looking around smiling to see who else has a booboo.
see, growing up i always associated selfishness as something that isolated oneself from others as a consequence, but what im noticing more is the kind of selfishness that rampantly feeds off of others, under the illusion of sharing and happiness, but ultimately serves to elevate the individual alone. yes, this is still relevant to mental health issues.
this attitude is also something that is conveyed in advertising and media in general through concepts of approval and unity. we are all together in this and look how special we are. something you would think would work toward making individual struggles more important, but instead i think it has reduced our most vital struggles to a costume piece we buy in a microtransaction for our characters.
mental illness hasn’t been destigmatised but commercialised

was that im jinah? oh no no, that was just pearl, a canon character from steven universe. they are ten thousand+ years old, use she/her, and are aware that they are not actually from washington dc. too bad they can’t stray from this city for long.
how long has your character been here
around a month or two. she’s used to the basics and has settled into a job but she’s still pretty upset about everything going on
what is your character’s job
works part time as a mechanic and part time as a ballet teacher. a weird mix but she likes it. she probably also occasionally tutors. listen pearl has plenty of money saved up and very few things she actually needs to buy, so she just does whatever interests her.
where has your character been pulled from in their fandom
after the movie but before steven universe future cause i had some mixed thoughts about that.
has any magic affected your character
nope!
any other info!
part of an alien race that essentially are sentient gemstones that can create humanoid forms to exist in so her name is pearl but she is also quite literally a pearl
immortal but not indestructible, it’s just difficult. her gem has to be shattered to get rid of her as she can simply reform her physical body
back on homeworld all gems have a purpose based on their gems, and pearls were basically made to order servants, there to look pretty and open doors and hold things.
and pearl did this job happily for a little while, however the diamond she served under fell in love with earth, and since the other diamonds were using the planet to train it’s nutrients she rebelled, and pearl rebelled along with her
pearl definitely did this partially for herself, for the freedom and ability to decide what she wanted to do and think for herself, not just because she was definitely in love with her diamond, but it took her a couple centuries to realize that
so she trained herself in combat, in mechanics, in just about everything she could get her hands on
in order to win the rebellion her diamond masqueraded as a lower rank gem and eventually she and pearl faked the diamond’s death to scare off the others. it worked but it ended in almost all of the other rebel gems being destroyed and was a large source of guilt and grief in her life for a long time
eventually the diamonds left earth and she stayed with just a few other gems, and they lived there for thousands of years with little change until her diamond (now pretending to be a rose quartz) decided to have a baby
this ultimately killed her as her gem had to become a part of her kid, and pearl had a Rough time with that between losing her to a man and then literally losing her but she is such a mom at heart she really grew to love steven
anyway that is just a quick flash of the general background what is there to say about pearl
so gay so incredibly gay i love her so much
has a pile of trauma and self esteem issues but from where i’ve taken her she is genuinely doing better at working through them
a little weirdo. very blunt and sometimes rude as a result since she never was all that compelled by humans
wanted plots:
anyone she knows from her variety of jobs
and younger muses who could use a parental figure she is happy to be there
some poor human who has to help explain human things to her on the regular you would think after being on earth so long she would know and yet
any ladies she’s gone on casual dates with perhaps? listen in the show she canonically gets a bunch of phone numbers from people i don’t know how she does it
roller skate buddies! she loves a roller rink! let her have fun
literally anything this is the character who got me into multifandom rps i have a lot of love for her

"He got upset for being in a toxic relationship and asked for consent, he's such a meanie! Poor stowas not getting to take advantage of Blitz again! How sad! :(" Wow...
Can you not? No really... can you?
youtube
Hell, Blitz didnt even "fight" him, he just stood up for himself and asked for consent instead of letting Stolas harass him like he did in Ep 2 and Ep 5, calmly told him to go away, and drove off to give himself a well deserved break from how horribly that Stolas treats him.
Im so sick of people taking this scene out of context for ship bait.
If you were getting sexually harassed and exploited constantly, you would eventually start being stern too. Yes, Stolas looks "UGU INNOCENT!" all the time, again for ship bait, but really, Stolas was the one hurting him, the scene just painted it as the opposite to make Blitz look "bad" for even thinking about asking for consent or not wanting to be around someone who demeans him for being an imp constantly. I get liking a ship, a really do, but we need to consider the difference between fanon... and canon. -and all of these headcannons about how Stolas is a "sweet cinnamonrol who deserves Blitz!"- is fanon! -and that's ok, we can have our version of the story, and the creators can have theirs! But that's all the reason why we shouldnt use the fanon to deny the issues with this relationship, that isnt just toxic... but involves sa.
In the next episode where he's seen with Blitz, Stolas even goes out of his way to sexually exploit Blitz again and uses his status and power against Blitz over something that was his fault since Stolas was the one that wasnt looking after Via. The writers acted as if ep 7 didnt just happen, showing Stolas's "respect" for Blitz as only temporary and spoiled any potiential development it could have had if they just listened to their audience for once and made the much needed improvements for this interpretation of these characters since they ended up showing Blitz’s trauma from Stolas as a “JOKE!” which made Ep 7 feel like it was being manipulative since they never really cared about Blitz’s trauma anyway.
Stolas just- rolls his eyes at Blitz being scared and then sexually uses him- AGAIN!
Making the entirety of Ep 7 pointless.
-and you know what? All I can say after seeing this show is that some relationships arent meant to be, and that's ok.
You're allowed to have bounderies, and if someone keeps invading those bounderies they do not deserve you or your time, and you should be with someone who's actually healthy (as in NOT perfect, nothing is perfect, but stable) for you and will actually value and respect you as a living being.
-and Helluva Boss’s messages being the opposite of that is actually horrific.
But that’s for another post altogether.
what do you think of Blitzo having anger issues?
Okay I rolled your other ask "Do you blame Blitzo for being angry" As I wasn't sure if it was a specific case or in general. I personally get angry quite a lot, I have a short temper and I'm not one to take nonsense lying down so I get getting angry so often. Especially cause Blitz deals with so much and sees himself and others in such a way that makes it seems like he has to defend himself constantly.
I wish he could see through that a little bit, his blow up at Stolas in particular still breaks my heart, I just wish he could find a good therapist for all this stuff and cope and get through it all. Lord Blitz I love you but you so frustrating at points...

prefacing for maxs followers who dont know who i am but stating this as like. autistic queer person. who also has a lot of other things going on in the brain. i think a lot of autistic n adhd n queer ppl (ESP white auti adhd queer ppl) need to remember that likeee. not everything we relate to . is necessarily an us exclusive experience. and sometimes the thing being judged as 'bad autism rep' or whatever wasnt really.. a character being autistic . not every character whose an outcast or blunt or has problems in social scenarios or behavioral problems is queer or autistic or has adhd and judging a character off of whether theyre good rep for those groups often comes off as. ignorant of experiences outside of autism and queerness n adhd. not to say you cant relate to characters meant to rep a different experience, just that you need to acknowledge that experience and treat it as just as needing of rep as you.
n like it shows up in like. perception of mituna. or isabela from encanto. and ive heard abt white autistic ppl seeing a black character avoiding eye contact w white people as an autism thing. and its like. fuck man not every outcast is autistic or queer or has adhd. brain damage from head trauma is a very real thing and maybe mituna Could be autistic but he isnt bad autism rep just because you (general you) dont want to think about how neurodivergent includes people with head trauma or other disabilities that may cause increased vulgarity and mood swings. isabela Could be a lesbian but that doesnt mean ppl shouldnt also consider how her story isnt like. a lesbian story just because she doesnt like the man shes supposed to get married to its abt how young women get married off n how common it can be in family oriented cultures. avoiding eye contact isnt inherently an autism thing esp when youre a poc and any little thing could be taken as a sign of aggression esp if youre black
n like i get it. when youre queer/autistic/adhd its hard not to try and grab for every little piece of representation you can get. god knows i always take a chance to hc a character i like as a lesbian. ive always been prone to making white characters black. even if a character is clearly nt i will project onto them anyways. but i think the sorts of ppl who will complain abt mituna being bad autism rep often miss the fact that like.
if your projection and desperate need to see and find people like you. gets in the way of showing proper respect to people who Arent like you but face similar issues. then you might need to take a step back and think 'fuck am i overstepping? am i ignoring others need for representation in media in my own pursuit of rep?' . yknow? i think a lot of ppl would have an easier time respecting and learning about other cultures and experiences if they just like. sat down for a bit and thought about the world outside of their own bubble. bc sometimes there gets to a point where it feels like the overall communities i mentioned care more about being listened to than they care about having an actual conversation. and all media really is a conversation. if that makes sense . ok im done now i just have a lot of thoughts abt this.hi max -🎭🎪
yeah this is all pretty interesting and fair actually and tbh id never heard of some of that stuff since im not in that fandom but its an interesting look at this concept

I don't talk too much about DID on here... but I need to talk to you guys. It would mean a lot if you listen.
I... we are a system. A system that has been active since I was about 6. Starting with trauma blocking, leading right up to servere amnesia and memory loss for my entire childhood. DID became our life. Not my life... our. To simply admit being plural is soo hard. It feels wrong even now, years after my diagnosis. I know some of my alters, some have "gone quiet", sometimes there's a split that I don't find out about until months later... there is soo much to this.
There are fictives in this system too. I believe fictives are real but from my experience I have only ever encountered alters who have taken influence from other things. I,e a name or a style from a character or person. I've never experienced animal, God, fictional non human character alters. We simply... don't have any. My own opinion as to whether they exist is not strong enough to give either way.
BUT...
If there is one opinion I need to express, it's this..
ENDO SYSTEMS SHOULDNT BE WELCOMED INTO D.I.D SPACES.
Before you shit down my neck for saying that... listen.
About half a year ago I reached out. Finally more aware of my system and feeling more stable as the host, when fronting I was looking to seek advice, help others and be more active within the community. I couldn't have made a worse mistake. Prior to this I had no knowledge of an "endo system". I went on subreddits, chat rooms, groups, pages, all to try and understand more systems, learn more about my own and to be help to others.
Instead, I was met with Endo systems. People claiming I was "lucky to have trauma", people saying they just woke up with a collective of fictional characters as alters and a stream of information that not only contradicted my experience but invalidated it. I fought back. I do still fight back when I can but... one thing I hear every damn time is "well you're just ablist."
People that know me irl or have talked to me extensively to the point that they understand or know my traumas and my diagnosis know otherwise. I know otherwise. But the fact that endo systems have made a feat out of invalidating a "traumagenic" system, showing jealousy to the years of psychological, physical, emotional, sexual and financial abuse I've suffered... left me feeling nauseous. All so these systems can feel what? Special? Different? Like a minority of their own?
I refuse to be complicit to that ideology. Im seeing others that suffer with this being hurt and driven to suicidal thoughts because of these people that have taken over what were supposed to be safe spaces.
I will always be here for those who suffer with trauma and have developed extensive mental health issues because of them. I sympathise and empathise with you. I'll always support you.
But endos... no. I refuse to watch that toxicity infect safe spaces and make the rest of us the "lucky ones". The "ablist assholes." The "trauma sympathisers" (derogatory). Its a human right to have a safe space. How dare you feel entitled enough to shame us and alienate for the things we have suffered and continue to suffer with.
I don't spend every day hoping to remember good things, be terrified of certain dissociating experiences, reliving those traumatic experiences, to be torn away from what safety I have.
