Lol okay I have to ask who you think the worst bton hero is? (Is it Philip? For me it's Philip)

Yeah dude, it's Philip. I absolutely loathe him. Like, right off the bat, let's get one thing clear. He raped Marina. By his own account, she was just laying there (crying, I think?) non-responsive, absolutely in no mental state to consent. Do I think this is historically inaccurate? Nope. But this is... Br*dgerton. Like, there is hard stuff in this series (especially in When He Was Wicked) but it's never truly dark. Plus, there is zero commitment to seriousness or accuracy in these novels; Anthony and Kate marry because he got caught trying to suck bee venom out of her boob Benedict's book is a Cinderella retelling. In general, we don't expect romance heroes to act like--accurate. They're supposed to be romantic. And so much of TSPL is lighthearted, and to have this framed as something Philip had to go through~ (when like, he knew Marina didn't want it, and he absolutely did not have to do that; hell, even if we're going to argue "but heirs", which is not an excuse, he had! a son!)... gross as hell.

And on top of that, he's an exceptionally boring uncharming man, who's like "but plants", and seems to have little to no interest in raising his kids properly until Eloise swoops in. "But Maria and Captain Von Trapp" the difference being that like... aside from Von Trapp being an otherwise hot and clearly principled man, he IS involved in the raising of his kids--like, maybe too much lol. He's just too strict with them. He obviously CARES, or else he wouldn't have them so in line. And he caves IMMEDIATELY upon Maria setting him straight and like, becomes a teddy bear.

Philip is so flat. And so dull. Then you add in him doing what he did to Marina? His wife's mental illness and suicide (after he pushed her further by assaulting her?) being His Tragic Backstory? No.

I mean tbh, the only Bton heroes I truly like are Anthony (also a dick, for the record, but a fun one) and Michael (sexy lovely genuinely caring puts it down, the only Bton hero I buy as a seducer; she's all "Anthony is a rake" lmao okay the only woman we see him with besides Kate is an opera singer he's financially supporting... Michael doesn't need to put the money down, once he starts really trying with Francesca she literally has to run away to Scotland to avoid dropping her panties, and he still just follows her and makes her do it anyway). Everyone else ranges from "dislike" (Philip/Benedict/Colin) to "I forget him completely" (Gareth and Gregory... if it was death or recounting a single detail from those books... I'd be screwed) or "middling to fair" (Simon; who, unlike Anthony, I find much more interesting on the show).

First off this absolutely cursed AU was inspired by Lemonomelette and a post they made -X Secondly I imagine it all being about bots and cons trying to one up each others factions and not actually helping in any serious way because their too busy with their own faction bs.

Think of two rival car dealerships across the street one upping each other to get business and instead of business with cars its interstellar robot fairys trying to woo sm children to let them grant their inconsequential wishes (which may or may not be worth it) instead of the other guy next door.

Wrong Number AU

"I SWEAR TUCKER IF I HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE "I WANNA END YOUR DAD, MARRY YOUR MOM, AND TURN YOU INTO MY EVIL STEPSON/HEIR AND IF YOU DONT IM JUST GONNA TRY CLONING YOU ONCE MORE" FRUITLOOP AGAIN FOR A SECOND TIME THIS WEEK I AM GOING TO LET MY ROUGES END ME, DONT CARE WHO, JUST GONNA LET THEM FINISH WHAT THE PORTAL ACCIDENT STARTED"

-sent by Unknown Number

When Jason Todd woke up that morning to check his texts. He wasn't expecting this.

When Danny sent that rant text to what he thought was Tuckers number (his old phone got smashed in a recent ghost fight, Sam gave him a new one she wasn't using, and Tucker was out of town for a while so he couldn't help Danny transfer his data yet) he wasn't expecting a rather cyptic response

"Wrong number kid. But just for my own curiosity and concern, who is and where can I find this Fruitloop? I just wanna have a chat with him."

Thinkin bout Sampo Koski rn as like. His character n what we get of him in honkai star rail and he fucking. He confuses me like. There has to be So Much more to him like

The general vibes of him and especially how other characters treat him is that of comic relief, a punching bag, a goof, just a slick conman causing trouble. It's genuinely difficult NOT to insult him n treat him badly with dialogue options and any time he's even mentioned March 7th hisses at him. He's literally a cryptid in belobog. He's a joke.

But. But. There's his light cone. It makes me insane. It contradicts all of that.

In it he's competent. He's badass. He's omnipotent. He's able to somehow know a sniper from however far away is locked on him and address them specifically.

And even like... in the entire plot of jarilo-vi he's spoken of like he's not much. He's a 4 star character. But he's practically as present as bronya and seele and Gepard and his involvement in the story is ASTRONOMICAL. He has a part in every major event. He's the one who drags the Trailblazers and bronya into the Underworld. He's the one who takes you to svarog, to the overworld again. He gets Natasha and saves you from svarog. He's the first character you ever meet on jarilo.

And he seems to just vanish before you confront cocolia. But no. Sampo is the one who has the last word and wraps up the entire mission on jarilo-vi. He fucking breaks the forth wall. Jarilo-vi both begins and ends with Sampo.

He calls himself shadowy comic relief yet he seemingly orchestrated everything. What is he. What the fuck is he doing. What else is up with him and when will we get more of him. I want to bite into him and tear him apart.
