damn... octavia "rook" laidir's chokehold on me !
#personal#my ocs#i think about her every day. she makes me feel fucking insane. and i haven't even made her yet#a pirate a thief a murderer a terrible sister a faildaughter. and yet !! and yet !!!!!!!!!#she not only doesn't quit she will go and go and go and go until she starts falling apart. she is a dog with a bone in all matters#i'm going for a kazuma asogi vibe with her honestly LMAO like the way she is just SET on what she believes and will not let it go#also sucks being a lord of fortune with a panic attack inducing fear of drowning but woe ! near death experience be upon ye#recruiting [redacted] is a nightmare scenario for her. she said yeah let's go in. in there. in the ocean (freaking out)#and to catch feelings for a grey warden of all people. the person most likely to either tragically sacrifice himself or just Die Young#octavia taking a drink of vodka straight from the bottle like Is anyone else having one of the years of all time or is it just me#and on top of all that !! she eventually has to accept that her sister wants nothing to do with her anymore#she has to finally confront that forgiveness is not guaranteed and that their relationship may just be truly over. even if she says sorry#and that kills her a little bit bc she does genuinely care abt her family. but she made some egregious choices years ago#and now she has to live with the quencies !!!!#and she's selfish enough to want to avoid that. like. she doesn't even necessarily want to be her sister's bestie--#--she just doesn't want to be punished for her mistakes. she isn't Aware of that per se but that's what it is#she's a fuckup she's a loser she's a liar she's headstrong and stubborn and deeply caring and so in over her head#OCTAVIA THE WOMAN THAT YOU ARE IN MY HEAD !!!!!!

okay so unimportant but this is like my third ask in row I have way too many questions šš But how did Will react to the āyouāre getting a siblingā thing? Because he and Austin didnāt exactly grow up together and Darren and Apolloās split caused him to not grow up with Kayla, even if he likely knew of her and Darren. (And is there any possibility that there is a photo of Darren holding Will or Austin as younger children?)
NEVER APOLOGIZE i love the asks sm <33 like genuinely brightens my day everytime i get one bc like ppl care?? abt ?? this fic?? like what??lkJSDF
i think he was pretty alright with it, but mentally was slightly panicking - the thing is, he was aware that his dad had other kids, and had definitely met austin a few times (over holidays and whatnot), but honestly, i don't think he even knew of kayla's existence beforehand? like, it's not something that apollo would have really talked about, and naomi wouldn't have brought it up, so he didn't really know anything about kayla - and it's not like apollo could have told him, because he didn't really know anything about kayla either
so he took the news pretty calmly because he never really wants to cause any disturbances (yk those people pleaser tendencies are strong) - and was really just curious. for such a long time the house was just him and apollo, but before that, will had mostly lived on tour buses and in the midst of music industry chaos, so i think he was almost excited, in a way, to have some noise and more people in the house (also added by leo being there more often); but also, it had always mainly been him and one parent, so he'd be a bit anxious about what another kid would mean for the family dynamic
plus the fact that kayla was just like six at the time and will had never really interacted with kids his age until going to school while living with apollo - and definitely not with kids younger than him.
but honestly i just love the hc that kayla just brings out like big sibling instincts in literally everyone she meets. like even the people who aren't related to her; nico and leo and michael, jason and piper, like she really just needs to be around them for a bit and she's already mentally adopted by them. so when she does eventually arrive, she slots in pretty easily, and will finds that he's already thinking of her as his little sister within like a week - literally "i've only known her for a week but if anything happened to her i would kill everyone in this room and then myself"
as for the photo with darren and the kids, i LOVE that oh my godšš there definitely is!! not one of all of them together, but probably one with darren and will, and darren and austin, because of them like visiting the kids and apollo sneaking pictures because it's adorable. rip to the fact that there are no pictures of apollo with baby kaylašš </3
thank you for the ask!!

fma word vomit!1! Mostly a rant bc i have been rewatching it and thinking about things. Fma critical but i am ranting from a place of i genuinely want better for a media i like. I am a person of color and these are my thoughts personally, feel free to disagree.
Iirc, hiromu arakawa wanted fma to be a criticism on ainu colonization as she had ainu family and wanted to pay her respects to them. Which is Awesome in concept, i think its important to want to make something out of compassion and respect for others. I think she had good intentions when creating the base morals of her story.
(Edit, apparently shes yamato and not ainu, i only heard that she was distant ainu from an interview or something but yeah thats probably wrong so sorry abt that)
Heres where the problem kicks in.
Sometimes she does it poorly, really poorly. "Ignorance isnt a sin" but what happens when that ignorance hurts people?
Fma is in the end a story about redemption and humanity. It is a very idealistic /optimistic view of the world. And sometimes that wide-eyed optimism is blind to reality.
Enter the entirety of the amestrian government. One thing i HATE HATE HATE, is the fact that the white characters are given more sympathy than scar, a colored man who had his race brutally genocided by those characters. Roy and gang do feel bad for what theyd done, theyd felt bad about their war crimes their murders their sins everything. He himself says scar was justified in his violence. And edward, a 15 yo twerp was like "thAts nO exCuSe."
This is where the optimism comes in. "Murder is murder! All murder is bad!" Thats a genocide victim. Of course when scar goes after literal children and decides to solve all his problems with violence, thats when hes losing it. That should be disconnected from the whole government corruption bit.
And then winry. Winry comes in, cries her eyes out and shes the victim. Scar went through worse quite literally. And we dont see him get afforded that. And in a way, it feels like white woman tears. I can understand why winrys upset but jesus have some empathy would ya?
The main problem i think, is how little ishvalan characters there are, there isnt enough to have a full story. There isnt enough to see their pov. Its just roy and the gang and armstrong. And doesnt olivier get mad at alex at one point for not participating in the genocide? Stan alex for not wanting to kill people and backing out, wish other characters could say the same huh?
Maes. Maes. Grips him. Maes.
He doesnt give a shit about the ishvalans, what he was a loving dad but does he ever care abt his literal war crimes? Probably not. He only cares about roy.
In the end its an idealistic world where cops would actually work against the system. There always was something unsettling about the way the goverment worked and i think its because it follows the lines of "not all cops are bad!" Which, which isnt true.
Cops are bad because they promote and enable a system that was corrupt in the first place.
FMA technically goes against the grain with that, because the "cop" characters do go against the government. I think its important to have an ideal to work towards. I think its important to have positive examples, and fiction is a playground. Its a literal fantasy to get a corrupt government overthrown. But having that hope somewhere, may be good. Because at least we can hope for a better future. Roy and his gang work towards a future where they would get sentenced guilty which is a good thing i wont deny. I think its good that they fight for that.
Im not here to talk about that.
This combined with the fact that only white characters have a truly active presence in overthrowing the government (besides scar vs bradley that was awesome and very good), it just feels, unsettling.
Its like making a movie abt the civil war only to have white people star in it ignoring the black people that did work for their liberation.
(If thats an uncalled for comparison let me know ^^ i can edit it, its just the closest i can think of)
White characters and their emotions are always getting prioritized over colored ones and its alarming.
Then theres the whole if you work hard youll get something in exchange.
Hahahahha if only it really was like that for the majority of minorities hm? The world really would be a better place. 2003 fma you actually did something with that.
I dont think fma is entirely bad, it does good things sometimes! And i appreciate the message it tries to portray, i just think it has its priorities askew sometimes...

u asked someone to remind you to post about your pjo dual protagonist thalia/bianca au and i am SO intrigued by this idea please say more
anon asked: hey queen hope your homework went good yesterday šøā¦now what were you saying about thalia and bianca š³ ?
ok yāall iām here...the moment almost none of yāall have been waiting for....bianca/thalia protagonists with alternating povās au
warning itās kind of super long and may or may not read like a 2nd graderās semi-coherent game of pretend so under the cut it goes!
so the main things you need to know about this au are 1. thalia survives and 2. annabethās + lukeās ages are a lil diff bc canon is my sandbox 3. i canāt decide if percy exists in this au or not (maybe yāall can help me decide?)
so the first book:
would start a few months after grover brought thalia (12), luke (13), and annabeth (10, not 7)Ā to camp half blood. they were chased by monsters sent by hades on the way, and thalia almost didnāt survive, but ultimately she got lucky and managed to send a bolt of lightning through her spear for the first time and they made it into camp
itās been some time so annabeth is happy as a clam in the athena cabin doing her 10-year-old-with-severe-mommy-issues thing and luke is actually pretty popular with the hermes cabin bc he actually Met Their Dad Holy Shit and also heās getting pretty good with a sword
at the same time, thalia is alone in the zeus cabin. everyone has been freaking out bc they all saw the huge bolt of lightning that incinerated a couple hellhounds as they made their grand entrance and What The Fuck Child Of The Big Three???
sheās also further isolated because chiron will take her for private training sessions sometimes, since she is clearly really powerful already and also Hades Himself was trying to kill her (chiron told her the reason was the big threeās pledge not to have kids, and maybe about the great prophecy? if he tells her that then sheās sworn to secrecy)
once grover leaves on another protector assignment, thalia mostly hangs out with luke, and annabeth. luke + annabeth both will try to eat meals with her at the zeus table but annabeth doesnāt want to get in trouble and luke is genuinely making friends in the hermes cabin so thalia will feel bad sometimes and send him back
kronos, seeing this bitter isolated child of the big threeās dreams: itās free real estate
MEANWHILE
hades is Pissed that thalia survived and zeus got to break their oath And get the glory of a prophecy child
so he sends someone to take bianca (12) and nico (10) out of the lotus hotel and casino a little early.
grover is still their protector, but since the Stirring hasnāt begun in earnest yet and hades is lowkey determined to keep them safe, they make it back to camp half blood with no escort/incident
bianca + nico are put into the hermes cabin, and luke kinda takes them under his wing bc while heās not bitter he still needs therapy bc this 14 year old has never met a pre-teen he couldnāt try to parent
luke introduces nico and annabeth since theyāre the same age and they become really good friends!! she Loves mythomagic and he thinks her dagger is super cool and theyāre both just really excited about camp <3
bianca is more reserved and resistant to the whole thing, and she wanders around alone exploring and runs into thalia in the zeus cabin
at this first meeting they get into a bit of a fight bc bianca is still in shock/denial about the gods being real, but thalia at this point has zero patience for this
anyway after that and maybe another scuffle during capture the flag or something they hit it off and become best friends in the way girls can, especially bonding over how theyāve both had to take on raising annabeth and nico basically on their own at the age of 12
~QUEST TIME~
thalia is given a quest for [unspecific reason] and chooses bianca and luke, they go off leaving annabeth and nico frustrated at home
quest hijinks etc, bianca is trying to figure out her parentage + her weird mysterious powers? and thalia is arguing with luke because heās settling into camp/hero life really well actually but sheās getting progressively angrier with the gods for trying to kill her and also keeps getting dreams from kronos and doesnāt get why he doesnāt seem to remember all of the shit that the gods have put him through
bianca + thalia have las-vegas-style-heart-to-hearts where thalia shares her tragic backstory about her mother and her brother and how hades tried to kill her and even about the great prophecy and how sheās trying on this quest bc of that and her dad but at the same time these dreams are making her suspicious that he mightāve been responsible for her momās death.
bianca then shares her own stuff, about how terrified she was being on her own with nico having to protect him but also not remembering most of her childhood and not remembering her parents or how she ended up in the care of this lawyer and just the absolute mindfuckery that her memories/past are
luke is asleep in those scenes i guess lol š§āāļø
anyway eventually they finish their quest in this massive climactic battle where bianca discovers her powers in a huge-showy-āiām the ghost princeā-way and is formally claimed by hades which thalia sees as this Massive Betrayal obviously and bianca is horrified too because she knows what hades did to thalia but at the same time sheās just so happy to finally understand at least part of her past
thalia just reaches a breaking point though because everyone around her just doesnāt understand her anger and just when she thought she had found another sympathetic person who understood what she was going through she joins hades??? no. no fucking way. kronos reveals that heās the one who has been sending her dreams, prob by sending some messenger who he possesses or smthing and when he offers thalia the chance to join him? she does (dun dun dun)
main beats of the rest of the series:
thalia and bianca on opposite sides of the war training to be the prophecy child, they come together a Lot and have like melodramatic fight scenes where they talk out their anger and try to get the other to join them bc they donāt want to kill each other
luke is extremely conflicted/betrayed and thereās a titanās curse moment prob towards the end of the third book where theyāre fighting and thalia is trying to get her to go with him but here he actually does go to join her (gasp!!) and is evil for at least one book but his heartās not in it and he goes back to the good side eventually
by the point of lukeās betrayal, annabeth and nico are growing and developing and old enough to go on quests w bianca and by the last book theyāre a main trio of sorts and their hypothetical character development is already making me emotional
thereās just a lot of general sexiness with foils and inner conflicts and bianca doesnāt even want to be the prophecy child but she needs to for the fate of the world and bianca is so angry at thalia bc thalia is a daughter of zeus and could control her powers and is perfect and just meant to be the prophecy kid, not some daughter of hades who they didnāt even have a cabin for before
hm maybe by either the last or second-to-last book thalia + bianca are close to reconciling or at least their interests are aligned for the moment and they read the text of the prophecy together and things go Wild bc they both think āsingle choice shall end his daysā either is about luke or nico and it turns up the gas to their fighting both of them care about both of them and yeah
and then i canāt decide if thereās romantic arcs at all but if there were it would go like this:
just a dash of thaluke where at first it was luke having a one-sided crush but thalia misses him a Lot after she goes to kronos and wonders if itās that she misses him or if itās something More until to get him to defect thereās like a melodramatic moment in the fight where thalia kisses him and they go off to be Evil Together but it ends bc luke doesnāt believe in the cause and only joined her in hopes of getting thalia back to his side
once luke leaves/is kicked out thalia realizes that she didnāt love luke she just wanted a family and also in the second half of the series she realizes sheās a lesbian as a parallel to her redemption arc
bianca meanwhile is unconcerned w romance until she has her botl-hoe-moment where within one book she 1. runs into the hunters on a quest and has a thing with zoe nightshade who tries to get her to join plus tells her about that time she met thalia, 2. she goes to calypsoās island and falls in love w her in the moonlight or w/e and has her what-if moment, and 3. when they meet up that book thalia somehow knew abt zoe + calypso and seems almost angrier abt themĀ than the war?? weird bc bianca knows that thalia is Totally Straight right??
my main point is that bianca/thalia is our friends-to-enemies-to-lovers endgame thank you i will take my pulitzer now
#this series is like. if the titan's curse was 5 books long and also specifically catered to 9 year old me#which is very girlboss me <3#bianca di angelo#thalia grace#thalianca#luke castellan#thaluke#(just a dash. a smidge. for spice.)#annabeth chase#nico di angelo#pjo#keratonin#anon#answered#she speaks

yes! i hate it when people say belphie doesnt care for mc, this is a personal opinion but i feel like even if we werent related to lilith (and somehow we came to life again) he would be close to us, and try. seeing how the people he cares about the most react to someone he thought was just a human dying would probably push him to get to know MC. i know some people also think and argue that beel sees MC as a replacement for lilith too; but i know 100% he doesnt, he hasnt been able to verbally talk about his sisters passing to anyone, i mean almost right after she died belphie was taken away and beel assumed he was in the human world on "buisness", so for beel to openly talk about lilith with us as much as he does it feels special. i know he sees mc as their own person because of how much hes able to share with us, beel talking with mc about his feelings means hes able to finally move on, not to say that he'll forget about her, but he knows hes ready to finally stop beating himself up for it yk? i feel like people were also conflicted about seeing belphie as someone who cares for mc, especially the 180 he does when he finds out we're liliths relative; but belphie has had so much trauma, seeing the person he loved the most die, being separated from his brothers for years and years, etc. he was locked away with his mental illness for a long time, the anger bottled up and he took it out on mc, of course it explains it but it doesnt excuse it, you can still continue to hate belphie idc but i feel like he loves mc more than the other brothers do because of it, its the same thing with beel, mc allowed both of them to cope and talk to them about their sisters passing, yk?
Honestly the whole of Chapter 16 and associated fallout is p. controversial simply bc of it being us that it happens to; the game's written for us to imprint on the MC, and because of that, some scenes - like Belphie's betrayal and his glee at having killed MC - becomes very, very personal. It's very easy after that to become biased against a character, because there's genuine emotional scarring that we're left with as players that the game then just... fails to acknowledge to its fullest. (Which is why we get so many "MC might have forgiven Belphie but I haven't" fics on AO3.)
But to say that Belphie doesn't care for MC is just. Wrong. And I can def. get your annoyance on that!
He didn't care for MC to begin with, yes; MC was a random human he knew nothing about, a ticket to freedom and the first step into enacting revenge for something he's carried with him for millenia. They didn't matter to him outside of that because he never got to see them - or spend actual time with them - outside of the short visits they could afford to update him on their pact progress. That's undeniable.
But to say that he still doesn't ignores the entire point of the Lilith revelation. Being related to her gives Belphie something to connect with MC over. It gives him a reason to overcome his hatred of humanity and to bond with MC in general - which is selfish, yes, and kind of shitty, true, but so much of Belphie's (admittedly misplaced) anger comes from being a survivor of an incredibly one-sided war and (arguably, in his mind) the reason Lilith died to begin with. Because Beel saved him instead of her.
It's not like any of them were ever given a good way to cope with the trauma of the Fall, or Lilith's death. It's not like any of them even knew her actual fate until Chapter 16. Belphie's way of coping was to become apathetic, and to try and place the blame onto something he could take action against.
To him, that meant humanity. Because she fell in love with a human. Because they'd already fought God and lost, so he wasn't going to get closure there - but maybe ending the cause for her death would help the hurt.
He hated humans because of Lilith. In the realm of good story-telling, the best way to end that hatred is likewise through Lilith. Stories are best when they have that cyclical nature to them - especially since it can then transition into Belphie overcoming his trauma (and Lilith's death) through humanity.
So, yeah; it's a selfish reason to get close to someone, to take back the really horrific thing you were going to do, but all of Belphie's anger stemmed from the Fall and what he perceived as her death. Finding out that she didn't actually die? That she became human - became the very thing he wanted to destroy - and lived out a long life? That she had children, and that her family line is still alive in MC? Of course that's going to stop him dead in his tracks. And of course he's going to want to get close to MC, the last remaining fragment of the sister he's dedicated his entire life post-Fall mourning.
Belphie's an incredibly apathetic character by nature. He doesn't care about a lot of things, and everything he cares about is overshadowed by how much he loves Lilith. He needs that connection to get him out of his natural apathy. He cares about Lilith above all else; he'll care about MC at the drop of a dime if they're anything to do with her.
But that's not a bad thing. It means there's an opportunity for him to genuinely get to know who MC is, in a positive light.
It's an opportunity for him to try and make a connection with MC that simply wouldn't have existed otherwise, and through them, to finally, finally put his memory of Lilith to rest. And he does! He gets to know MC, gets to know why Beel adores them so much - outside of just being "Lilith's descendant" - and ends up loving them for who they are.
He puts his hatred of humanity and his single-minded attachment to Lilith behind him, and he still cares for MC. He wouldn't do this if he'd really not formed some sort of bond with them before that point. If he only cared for them because they're a fragment of Lilith, then they'd mean nothing to him once Lilith wasn't such a fervent part of his daily life.
I think the game's just... really bad at showing that, however. You put it really well when you called it a 180, because in all honesty? The game glosses over it much too quickly, and doesn't do a totally good job explaining the logic behind why he'd change his mind so fast.
There's not enough time spent on allowing MC - and the player - to overcome the emotional wreckage of Chapter 16 + fallout. We're not given the chance to process it before Belphie has, to build up a natural relationship with him that transitions slowly from him seeing MC as a Lilith-connection to him seeing them as their own, defined person. It's way too easy to still be emotionally hung up on it while he seems perfectly fine and dandy.
On your bit abt him overcoming it even without the connection to Lilith - I agree tbh! There is a lot Belphie would do for Beel, and I genuinely think seeing how against him Beel is after killing MC, even if they're brought back to life, would ruin him. Belphie being locked up, trying to convince Beel that he was doing the right thing, only for Beel to disagree with him and show genuine anger/disgust, would knock the world from under his feet. If he thought trying to hurt MC would make him lose Beel too - if Beel pleaded with him to just play nice, because he can't choose between them both, not again - he'd likely (albeit begrudgingly) postpone his intended revenge plot.
And he'd try to stay bitter, and for a long time he likely would - but then he'd see how happy Beel is with MC around, and how much it means to Beel that they seem to get along, and how much Beel opens up to them about Lilith, and he'd start to... reconsider. Just a little. Just a bit. Moment by moment, day by day, until he realises that MC isn't a replacement for Lilith, but that they bring something to the table that the brothers have been missing for a long, long time.
Which would afford Belphie the moment of catharsis; where he finally, on a quiet night, opens up about the Fall. How he felt, how angry he is, how helpless. How much he misses her, how the pain and hurt consumes his every thought. And then the player would get the chance to overcome the emotional strain with Belphie, showing him that his anger shouldn't be aimed at humanity when his Father is the one at fault, and Belphie, very quietly, admitting that they're right.
It could work, and work well. It's just a point of finding - and hitting - the right story beats.
On the topic of Beel - honestly, the concept that he sees MC as a replacement for Lilith is just... I personally couldn't imagine it. I can see how someone else could - being her descendant, the attic sandwich club, their little escapade together once Belphie's back in with the family - but that includes seriously misreading/ignoring a lot of Beel's character arc/development.
Beel talks to MC about Lilith and Belphie way before he knows anything about their relation to her. He sees a lot of her in them, yes - he mentions this a few times, I think, in relation to little things they do - but he also sees a lot of what he wants to be in them - which is best seen in their ability to defend both himself and Luke, which be very subtly compares to his own inability to save both Lilith and Belphie.
To Beel, MC stands as something a little idealised. MC is everything good he saw in Lilith (as well as some of the things he loves most about Belphie), and everything he wishes he could have been. MC is a reason to be better, stronger, more capable - both so he can protect them the way they protect others, and so he can feel as if he's on their level.
But that doesn't mean he sees them as a replacement to the people he's lost. It's arguable that he's projecting, sure, I'll admit that; he sees things he misses most of the people he's lost in MC, and I'm sure forming a bond with them helped him cope while he was without Belphie. But MC is still always MC to him. They're always still their own person, and someone he cares for because of that fact.
Beel cares too much about his family to replace them with someone else. Lilith meant too much to him as a person for him to look at MC and actually see Lilith. He misses her, not the idea of her. He feels guilt that he couldn't save her. His trauma revolves almost entirely around the failure of (self imposed) duty and the subsequent loss of life. His Survivor's Guilt is the main reason Beel can't put her memory to rest - because he's constantly haunted by the thought that he could have saved her.
His trauma, the way it is, does not create a setting where he would believably see MC as a replacement for Lilith. He's all too aware that she's gone. He's all too aware that he lost something he can never get back that day. Her memory is special to him, and being unable to talk about her hurts him because that's a bit like killing her off for good.
MC can't replace Lilith, even being Lilith's descendant, and I genuinely can't believe that Beel would even want them to. He's so defensive over Belphie and Lilith, even just over the memory of them; to suggest that MC could replace one of them I feel would anger him more than anything. Not only because it's an insult to Lilith, but because it's an insult to the person MC is. To the person Beel admires.
With just how much he cares about Lilith, I think Beel's enhanced attachment to MC is more the steadfast defence of her lineage to make up for what he couldn't do for her. He still sees MC as their own person, it's just that now... now he has a chance to make up for what he failed at before. And bit by bit, he can learn to forgive himself. Can learn to stop blaming himself for something that was never his fault to begin with.
Belphie and Beel have a special relationship with MC because MC is a direct link to Lilith that helps them overcome their individual Lilith-related traumas. They're naturally going to be closer to MC due to this, yeah, but that's... not the only reason they're close to MC. To try and push down everything they feel and do with MC to "it's only because MC is Lilith's descendant" is to. Well. A) make an incredibly unsatisfying story and character development, but also B) completely ignore that MC helps them bury the memory Lilith. MC helps them move on. Their care and love for MC is what helps them finally let go - to stop living in the past, in hurt, and to finally take a step forward to a future without the weight of Lilith's death constantly burdening them.
Like. If Solmare had just spend a little more time on these two, that might be clearer. Because it's definitely there! And it's why I love Belphie and Beel so, so much. But it's also fully understandable why some players still really dislike Belphie, or why they're not convinced that Belphie/Beel see MC as anything outside of Lilith, bc the game does kind of fail on that a little by rushing a bit too much. Just. Aagh!! You know?
I could honestly go on abt them for hours. So I should prolly stop here before I go on too long adfgh.
#obey me#obey me beelzebub#obey me belphegor#I still have no idea what to tag half of my shit as adfgh

I am lovingly infecting you with Death Takes a Holiday disease <333
DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY IS SO EVERYTHING OHH MY GOD OKAY THIS MIGHT GET LONG AND MAYBE INCOHERENT (I DID NOT TAKE NOTES AS I WAS WATCHING EXCEPT FOR WRITING DOWN SOME QUOTES THAT GOT ME NEAR THE END)
okay ohh my GOD first of all from a purely visual standpoint i ADORE it... old films already look so šā„ļøšššā„ļøš i LOVEEE them i love how everyone has a faint otherworldly glow to them its so ššš and i LOVEEE death's umm Death Form hehehe LOVE how he's either a literal shadow or a sort of formless cloak (AND THE WAY HE'S SEE THROUGH IN HIS FIRST APPEARANCE? HELLO? HOW DID THEY DO THAT like ik how they did the invisible man effects but this is like. different and idk how they did it im so enamored!!!) and i love the other costumes in the film!!! all of grazia's dresses, death's uniforms as prince sirki, love the costumes SO much!!!
next thing i really really super big love is just... death going through the mortal world and reacting to and learning about everything. i mentioned in another post abt how that part of this movie tickles the part of my brain that loves the day the earth stood still and i stand by that!!! there's just something i love so much about an otherworldly being coming to earth/the mortal world to learn about humans, and doing it specifically by staying with a human/mortal family while keeping their otherworldliness secret. and death talking about war, how it's just fighting over flags or pieces of land neither side wants, DEFINITELY reminded me of klaatu and how he comes to earth to learn if humans would be a threat to the rest of the universe and what his thoughts are on war. day the earth stood still x death takes a holiday crossover when!!! but also the humor bits wrt REALLY GOT ME HELP i laughed SO loud at death's reaction to hearing himself be called The Old Man it made me lose my mind hkfkhk
AND OKAY. I NEED TO TALK ABOUT DEATH AND GRAZIA. BECAUSE THEY MAKE ME SO!!!!!!! LITERALLY HELP the way death sees her and is Immediately so struck by her is very endearing but what really got me was the next morning in the garden when grazia is like "haha here you should take a rose for your jacket :)" and death is like "oh um no i cant šš roses wither on me! there are people like that you know who make roses wither its totally a normal thing" (but also the way he phrases it, "there are people like that who make roses wither" (not an exact quote bc i didnt write it down š but you know!!) makes me so sad for some reason tht i cant quite articulate) and grazia is just like "haha don't worry!! it's not even opened yet, it'll last a looong time! šš" before putting the rose on his jacket... and death's reaction? GODDD HELP ME!!! ITS SUCH A SWEET SCENE!!!
and then. ohhh my god. on death's last night of his holiday. HELP!!! the juxtaposition between the one lady (AGAIN I CANT REMEMBER HER NAME APOLOGIES) looking into his eyes and going from "yes i would do anything for you, i'd give you my soul, i don't care as long as it's you you hottie!!" to "GET AWAY FROM ME PLEASE DON'T HURT ME" vs. grazia telling him "when i'm with you, i see depths in your eyes that are like the worlds i visit in sleep" THAT GOT ME! when grazia says "i think you've been holding life in your hands, as i do sometimes. i think you've been a little afraid of its beauty." THAT GOT ME TOO!! and the way death says "oh, you DO know!" do that last quote? like he's so surprised but also relieved bc she does know, she does understand at least some part of him? WELL, THAT GOT ME TOO!! same w the way he says "oh, grazia, grazia, don't be afraid of me!" jesus christ!!! + the way he like. flips between "no i want to take grazia with me i love her!" to "NO i cant take grazia with me, i can't kill her i can't do that to her" made me SO. GOD. "to go with me now, in love, would be triumph!" vs. his panicked "i cannot tell her!!" this is a movie TRYING to kill me!! AND THE WAY GRAZIA DOES KNOW? the way everyone assumes she has no idea, even death, bc how could someone ever love death? how could someone love death so deeply and genuinely and sincerely? "but you ā you don't know who i am!" "you are my love. my love." SHE KNOWS! SHE KNOWS WHO YOU ARE SHE SEES YOU SHE HAS LOOKED IN YOUR EYES AND SEEN HER DREAMS SHE SEES YOU AND LOVES YOU STILL! "now you see me as i am." "but i've always seen you like that. you haven't changed." "you have seen me... like this?" "yes. always." I AM GOING TO CURL INTO A BALL AND ROLL INTO A SMALL CAVE!!! literally its so everything to me its about death going from "i love her so much i want to be with her forever" to "no i couldnt do thay to her" it's about grazia seeing him for what he is EFFORTLESSLY it's about grazia seeing him for what he is and still loving him and choosing to go with him even though it means her death ohh my GODDD films of ALL! FUCKING! TIME!!!
#LITERALLY IF ONE OF MY FOLLOWERS READING THIS HASNT SEEN DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY WATCH IT RIGHT NOW PLEASE!!#asks#carouselcometh#long post

oosdkk dude im sorry ur mood dropped too.. i hope u feel better soon <3 but like i wld love 2 hear more abt ur thoughts on Art in general bc Boy Is He Interesting, and also a lil more abt Daniel coming out as nonbinary to his dad (whether he knows Eric is trans or not at that moment skjdfhdskf)! + if ur feelin it just more abt Mallick in general ESP cuz we agree that Brit doesn't make it thru V
djhfjdks thank u sm <3
okay Art first. I genuinely wonder abt him so much, something in specific I think abt is that aside frm Amanda (+ Eric, obviously, but talkin abt disciples) Art is one of the only trap victims EVER 2 be tested twice and itās like... whatās that abt? Why? as uāve said b4 it rly depends on how you personally view his character: whether heās a disciple or not. fr me, both options are equally plausible, n honestly I donāt rly confine myself to either; it sorta depends on what Iām feeling/writing. if weāre talking abt art being a disciple, then the Spinecutter not going off (one of my BIGGEST questions) makes total sense, as Hoffmanās side of the trap was never set up to work either, + Jigsaw disciples have a history (aside from Lawrence) of appearing as victims in other tests/traps. if he were not just another pawn and was in fact a disciple himself, then the Spinecutter was never meant to go off - it was there just to make Eric think it COULD go off/make it look convincing to outsiders. which brings me to ANOTHER question: what does Art know abt Eric? does he know anything? what does he think of Eric?
(lil side note: if Art is a disciple, then I kinda wonder if itās a lil bit of a Hoffman + Lawrence situation where Hoffman didnāt know abt Art either? just bc he looks so shocked when he sees Artās face fully fr the first time... that couldāve just been acting on Hoffmanās part but IDK. food fr thought)
personally, I feel like Art probably does know a lil bit abt Eric - at the very least, heād know tht Eric had been previously tested + failed by Johnās rules, but then I feel that he wld also know Eric didnāt rly have a chance in his second test. that is why Art trying so fucking hard to keep Eric alive is interesting 2 me: what is his motivation 2 do that? like heās been told Ericās basically just there to get Rigg to participate, he doesnāt have any personal obligation or anything like that. sure, the aim is to keep Eric alive + see if Rigg can pass his ātest,ā but nobody said anything about grabbing a man you barely know around his ankles to keep him frm hanging himself w a noose made of chains. nobody said anything abt speaking to him so softly, not even raising your voice beyond saying āhey,ā and asking him do you understand? when you tell him to keep still and prevent him frm killing his counterpart (which, if Art is a disciple, he knows it wonāt, but he still speaks to Eric so softly, so compassionately, doesnāt he?)
nobody said anything abt grabbing him around the waist and steadying him again after being punched by said man. but Art does that. he stabilizes Ericās feet on the ice as best he can and he keeps his hips straight and he basically says ālook, weāre all stuck here, you need to keep it together ātil that clock counts down if you want us to live, but Iām giving you a choice,ā and he presses the gun w the single bullet into Ericās hands and tells him itās up to him. nobody said Art had to care but he does, I think, and itās just like. he really didnāt have to keep Eric alive over the course of Riggās test. he didnāt. but he did and I just,, where does it come from? why does he care? this is even going beyond the fact that weāve talked abt them being together after their test in a scenario where they both survive - I just think that Art at his core is a very stubborn but very compassionate person, whether he wants 2 be or not. like he HAS to know that kind of involvement cld prove to be extremely detrimental but he cares. I feel like that says a lot abt him (even if he does call Eric an asshole a couple times while doing it,,).
plus I also just. I think his reason for being tested (as it seems to be in most cases) is extremely flimsy. he was doing his job. heās a LAWYER. often times it has nothing 2 do w personal feelings; theyāre there to do their job and sometimes, unfortunately, that is defending possibly reprehensible people (in cases like Rexās & Ivanās). + John was already upset w him regarding their argument abt the urban renewal group so like it just feels So Very Petty, yāknow?? even in the scenario where he IS a disciple, testing him twice seems entirely like John having a personal vendetta against him. Amanda is the only other person to be tested twice aside from Eric, so like. what. is that abt Mr. Kramer.
like Iāve said b4 in dms one could argue that Art is grey morally, bc we never rly see anything of him outside of flashbacks + acting as a test controller in IV, esp given that he... rly doesnāt seem too bothered abt it all? which is fair. but I also feel like the concern he shows towards Eric is smth to be considered as well.
-
+ YESS NONBINARY DANIEL I know Iāve mentioned it b4 but for reference, I read Daniel as masc nonbinary (he/they)! so I feel like Daniel wld b pretty comfortable w his identity, heās never rly had a reason not to be (itās rly anyoneās guess here tho bc we never see Eric + Daniel + Kate... as a family unit, for obvious reasons), so I feel like heās vry chill abt it? and in the scenario where Eric survives n is dating Adam, I feel like Daniel wld talk 2 him abt it first (Adam is an adult they quickly come to trust + heās vocal abt being trans himself so thereās that added layer of understanding - other than his mom maybe Adam might b the first person they come out 2). theyāre just kinda like āso I wanna tell my dad Iām nonbinary but like Iāve literally never thought abt coming out what do I doā and Adamās just like. Aha. bc he knows Eric is Also Trans so like, he doesnāt tell Daniel that bc itās not his info to share, but heās definitely like āoh itāll totally be fine. trust me you have no reason to worryā so Danielās just like Okay. I Got This
+ I know I mentioned this in dms but Daniel wld absolutely wear those floral ripped hem skirts over jeans, so I feel like on one of his visits to his dadās, he just. wears that combined w a completely random niche graphic tee he bought when shopping w Adam (I adore this hc n I am Holding Onto It) n is just like. not super open abt it bc he doesnāt know what to expect? he just kinda waits fr Eric to comment on it but when he doesnāt, Daniel gets nervous n is like ādo I look okay?ā and Ericās rly chill abt it, like āyeah! it looks vry cool, vry alternative.ā n like Daniel is relieved, of course, but also heās just like God Pls Say Something so he just comes out w it like āokay this is not working. Iām nonbinary.ā
and heās COMPLETELY SHOCKED when Eric is just like āoh why didnāt u say so? do u have a different name u wanna go by? is Daniel still okay?ā bc he wasnāt sure how much Eric knew, so heās just like āuh no Daniel is still good, he/they pronouns thoughā and Ericās just like alright cool but internally Danielās just like ??????
n THAT is when Eric asks him 2 come sit out on th front steps w him n is just like. āI donāt think I ever told u this but Iām trans. I transitioned during training in my early 20sā n Daniel is nodding while internally heās like Adam Iām gonna throttle u. he worked himself up fr NOTHING. he just kinda laughs abt it and Eric is like āare u good?ā ācause heās a lil worried but then Daniel just smiles and is like āyeah Iām fine! just realizing I had nothing 2 be worried abtā and itās a rly good moment fr them. they sit out there together talking abt their experiences for quite a while n at some point Adam steps outside 2 find them deep in conversation + he just smiles n goes back inside bc he cares abt them both so much and seeing them talk like that makes him so šš (Eric is SO PROUD u can see it on his face)
-
ohhh gosh Mallick,,, I spend a lot of time thinking abt him actually. heās just one of those characters I feel vry connected to (me š¤ Mallick: Ambiguous Disorder š) n one I got surprisingly attached to? hello (he IS one of my f/os)
I feel like Mallick is a very lonely person at his core. the way he sort of clings to Brit (w out the whole like. adrenaline of being in very very real danger w ppl trying to kill u SEVERAL TIMES) somewhat confirms this fr me. this is someone who has no reason to look out fr him, no reason to keep protecting him when their fellow captives hit him over th head w a club or attempt to push him into a bathtub to ELECTROCUTE him, but she keeps doing it and heās just. in awe of it a little bit? ācause she could just let Charles knock him tf out or let Luba push him in but she fights for him, some1 she has no obligation to n met fr the first time literally when they woke up.
the moment they share b4 they stick their arms into the saws to activate the 10 Pints of Sacrifice is so very vulnerable and maybe even a little tender. yes he calls her a monster, yes she calls him one back, neither of them deny it. itās an admission and an acceptance. theyāre monsters, sure, fine, okay. but they are monsters and they are in this together. Brit tells Mallick itās okay when he says he canāt do this alone. she says okay, okay, itās okay, weāll go together. and they help each other secure their tourniquets and they stick their hands in together bc itās the two of them, literally hand in hand, fighting for their lives n for each other n theyāre in so so much pain but they are doing it TOGETHER. I lose it thinking abt it!!! they even have a head bonk moment!!! I very much feel like it has some cinematic parallels to Adam & Lawrenceās moment in SAW 2004!!!!
+ as u mentioned, we both share the thought that Brit likely died since she wasnāt present at Bobbyās meetings, and. I want to touch on how fucking despondent and lost Mallick looks when we see him again in 3D. lights on but no oneās home. I feel like for Mallick, losing Brit was losing the first chance at a real connection heās had in god knows how long - and for him, thatās just very shattering. heās been thru hell, heās watched three people die right in front of him, he sawed his ARM IN HALF, n the person he went through all of that with didnāt make it. but he did. and I feel like for Mallick thatās just like... he doesnāt understand it. but he feels even lonelier than he ever has b4 because the One Person who was there w him thru it all, the one person who could ever possibly understand what happened that night, is gone.
the Mallick we see in V would NEVER sit down n willingly listen to Bobby Dagenās bullshit abt loving yr scars n taking pride in the fact u survived. he wld hate that man with a passion n I am very much sure of this. the fact that heās sitting in that chair looking numb and glassy-eyed and silent? Mallick is trying to find some1 to connect to, find a place where maybe he belongs. trying to fill that hole that losing Brit made. why else wld he be sitting there, listening to someone he would ordinarily tell to shove his self-love bullshit up his ass? heās lost. heās just trying to keep his head above water and find a way to shore even though everything in him is fighting not to. heās adrift without her.
+ ALTERNATIVELY, bc the reality of that is just. crushing n maybe not where I needed 2 go, in the scenario where Brit survived + just doesnāt want to put up w Bobbyās bullshit, I imagine them to actually move in together after a lil bit of time getting 2 know each other better w out the pressure of āoh god weāre gonna die.ā she kinda helps him build up a sense of self-worth bc GOD itās practically non-existent n thinking abt possible reasons why makes me sad. sheās definitely just like āno, you do deserve to be cared for and you deserve help when you need it, you deserve good things n to be happy.ā she just kinds shuts it down while still making sure to talk 2 him abt WHY he feels that way (sheās not dismissing, but sheās trying to nip it in th bud) n Mallick is just like. huh. bc no oneās really done that fr him before. but it rly does end up helping in the long run, even if it is a very slow pace toward actually getting 2 a place where he recognizes his own worth + realizes he deserves all the things he wants Brit 2 have too. theyāre there for each other thru thick n thin and if they made it thru their game, they can make it thru anything.
#saw#art#daniel#eric#adam#mallick#brit#thank u so much I rly appreciated this#n it helped me get my mind off things a little#I'm rly glad my ask helped u too!!! mutual support hours#long post#thoughts separated by dashes bc I had Way More than I thought I did oops#asks

For the character asks: Jon, Peter Lukas, Annabelle Cane? (giving multiple suggestions so you can pick one in case you get the same character twice in different asks)
very kind of you to assume i get many asks :') THANKS ill do all of them u_u
[Send me a character and i'll tell you...]
(under the cut bc i love talking and this got long lmao)
Jon
First impression
he's a uptight prick with obvious favoritism for sasha and tim and i love him so! much!!!!!!
Impression now
my poor little mew mew hm................I've got a complicated relationship w/ jon bc i love him a lot, but i loved s1 him the most, and literally everything else just makes me really, brutally, sad ;_; The way he tries so desperately to cling to his humanity and how other characters just call him by the title imposed to him makes me wanna cry
...also he just cares so much ;_; i cry
Favorite moment
probably his interactions with georgie at the beginning of season 3!!! From s5 id say when he killed not!sasha, it felt vindictive Ć¹_Ćŗ
Idea for a story
Dhfhdh im p basic when it comes to him ngl, either jon/tim/sasha friends to lovers or jon and desolation!tim or *something*!sasha trying to stay as human as possible, together š (or just any of them living and coping together in s4 n s5)
Unpopular opinion
Im just not a fan of monster jon, at all! He's not the type of character that i enjoy seeing having a corruption arc unfortunately!! It just hurts!!! (and this Is from someone that Loves corruption arcs!!!)
Also i really hate moth jon imagery??? For not particular reason, moths are pretty, but i still hate it u_u AND THE ASSOCIATION OF GREEN W/ JON (or the beholding in general!) I CANNOT STAND IT!! i know its bc of the tma logo but guess what! Its wrong! Purple jon rights!!!
ALSO ALSO the so called pining he had for martin just.... didnt felt like that at all! i have Many feelings abt this!
Favorite relationship
either georgie in s3, or sasha!!! i love how he always praises sasha in her research in s1 and even thought he's at his driest & sharp Trying-To-Project-Professionalism-And-Skepticism she still rolls into his office, interrupts him mid statement to banter w/ him abt pronunciation n stuff and its just Normal, like that speaks volumes of how comfortable they felt around each other! they were friends gdi! the moment he realizes she died and then everytime the not!them mocks him w/ her death makes me wanna break smth q_q
im not even gonna mention tim bc even though i love their relationship It š makes meš very š sad š
non shippy and also staying strictly canon, i love his relationship with melanie!
Favorite headcanon
sometimes i think abt that one hc that hes really good with arcade games bc he lived near the coast and i smile bc thats cute :) also hes a trans man ššš¤šš
Peter
First impression
Mystery evil captain man!!! Fog?? I LOVE him :)
Impression now
I STILL LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!!!!!!! Hes an asshole and has a lovely voice and smile and hes not, hes not Dumb but also he's far from the whooooa evil lonely influence he think he is (played like a cheap fiddle). He also makes me sad in ways i cannot and wont describe, and its a shame that he died cuz he was the best part of season 4 š rip you beautiful bastard man i still miss you </3
Favorite moment
"It has blood on it" "thats Leitner's too :D". Also when martin was angry abt idk, breekon? Jon going into the coffin? Cant remember, but peter was like I said id protect the institute, that guys not my problem ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Idea for a story
dfgdfg i have..... a petermart story that dealt with the different flavor of loneliness they both had, half smut half genuine meta of both of them and theorization on the branching of an Entity & how their powers manifested in other people...
basically, peter thinks hes hot shit when it comes to loneliness but gets overwhelmed when martin accidentally projects his feelings abt *fic's plot stuff* on him, its fun stuff!
Unpopular opinion
people either paint him like an absolute devil or an incompetent idiot and hes neither of them! hes an asshole who loves being an asshole but far from the worst monster in the show and he tried to do a clever scheme TWICE on his life and 1. while it was established that any of the rituals wouldnt work singularly the Silence was still a pretty clever attempt if it weren't for gertrude! and 2. well... he tried to manipulate someone petty and formerly supposed to be a web avatar, again not his fault, cant call him stupid for trying dfgdfg
i Do think hes kinda pathetic in some sense considering his backstory, but more out of personal pity than anything else
Favorite relationship
Canonically speaking him and martin! The pull and push of them was The best thing about season 4! Peter being a quite dangerous avatar and martin, beautiful and scared and kinda feisty, confronting him every chance he gets, peter doing his best to manipulate him and martin letting him believe hes succeeding (even thought, he is, partly). They're fascinating characters to have side by side
Favorite headcanon
Partly canonically speaking him and mikaele salesa :) they do bets together! They're lonely sea men! What else could you possibly want?
Also non shippy i like thinking abt peter's and simon's relationship but thats entirely non canon ā”
Diversity wins! The heir of the lonely is a gay man!
Also I think as every rich household(?) the lukases had many paintings and peter as a kid saw the ones w/ sailing ships and imagined sailing far far away from his family. That and seaman aesthetic fucks, which is why he always has the same vibe going on as an adult. He does Not know half of the things he'd need to know to have a ship though but hey he's rich and thats all he needs
Annabelle
First impression
thats a horrible psychological experiment they're making there D:
Impression now
THATS STILL A HORRIBLE EXPERIMENT AND ANNABELLE DESERVED SO MUCH BETTER............. idk! she makes me sad in the same way jon (and to a degree, peter) does! to be a living puppet for the thing that traumatized you as a kid and that later kinda killed you / is the only thing keeping you alive, to be devoted to it scrambling to believe in a higher reason for all of it to happen bc to believe otherwise is............. anyway. i love her, and i feel so so sorry for her
Favorite moment
her "maybe ive never been to the beach" at the end of ehr statement (that i fully believe its bullshit but, yknow, i love that she adds that), most of her convos with martin, her "i told you this might happen" "you did, you did" with mikaele
Idea for a story
i think a lot about her having conversations w/ either mikaele (platonically) or sasha (shippy) and their different points of views and treat with her making her doubt the web a bit
Unpopular opinion
listen, listen, i know it sounds like im woobifying her i Know it but reading the scraps of her story how can i Not feel sorry for her? when the story framed her very similar to jon? the supernatural childhood encounter that gave them arachnophobia and the subsequential joining with an Entity against her will? the fact that both the story and the fans treat her like a spider woman always sat very very bad to me, and the fact that the story itself always framed her like a villain (considering All The Other Characters that get the benefit of the doubt) was extremely disappointing
Favorite relationship
her and mikaele!!!!!!! wish we could have seen more scenes of just the two of them!!!!!! *singing* he is her daaaaaad, hes her dad! boogie boogie boogie! (ok no but like... their offscreen friendship is my favorite thing of season 5 ;_;)
Favorite headcanon
Sigh i dont know...i still think she's scared of spiders which make her current existence harder but thats a sadcanon :/ umm...... i love the idea of mikaele and her cooking together from time to time! Mikaele showing her some plates he used to eat as a kid as he talks stories about his life :) and she listens and sometimes tells a story of her own! its been so long since he had a quasy normal conversation! its weird yet nice!
#i say the same phrase many times but basically best parts of s4 are hands down peter. lonely!mart. peter and martin. melanie's arc. thats it#best parts of s5 are jon killing the not!them. annabelle. mikaele. annabelle & mikaele. annabelle and martin. thats it#dhfjfj sorry half of these are a bummer but you asked me... characters i have a complicated relationship with... i love the three of them s#statement ends#THANKS i love... talking

CHOJI, SHIKAMARU, LEE, GAARA & HINATA!! ITS A LOT IM SORRY
THANK U FOR THIS...admittedly some answers may be a lil short just so i can like. Get to them all.
EDIT: IDK WHY IT LOOKS LIKE THIS. IM SO TIRED. IM SORRY ITS JUST A LONGASS NARUTO POST ON YOUR DASH I TRIED MY FUCKIN BEST YALL
SEND ME A CHARACTER AND IāLL DO THIS;
Chouji (man iāve seen it spelled both ways and iām just used to typing Chouji at this point sorry)
Sexuality Headcanon: Pansexual!!Ā Gender Headcanon: Cis male A ship I have with said character: SHIKAMARU. SHIKAMARU. SHIKAMARU. SHIKAMARUUUU, my god...just, everything about their dynamic makes my heart melt, the way theyāre both people who are easily dismissed by others and how they have such UNFALTERING FAITH in each other. chouji knows how much of a genius shikamaru is, knows very well the fact that despite his laziness, once he commits to something heās in it for the LONG HAUL, the way shikamaru just believes so steadfastly in chouji, considering him stronger than NEJI FOR FUCKS SAKE...they like. getĀ one another, the kind of relationship where you can be yakking away one minute and then just sitting in contented silence the next. they can just laze around. maybe play video games and snack. and sometimes...kiss. and itās so chill even with that latent tenderness their later relationship develops and they both just feel so safe and KNOWN and familiar like. love your best friend. anyway everyone slept on shikacho and yāall should be ashamed the naruto fandom is enormous and finding pretty much ANY content for it is almost impossible aside from the small (if lovely and amazing) tag and iām pretty hyperfixated on it if you couldnāt tell holy SHIT.Ā A BROTP I have with said character: iām really not a fan of ino taking potshots at him for his weight and outright shaming him, but once she grows out of that i absolutely love their friendship. listen, you know that post thats like--hold on
thats just them, thanks. A NOTP I have with said character: i have nothing against karui but canon is fucking dead to me and my opinions on p much all theĀ āendgameā ships range from utterly neutral to absolute loathing. their relationship is on neither end of the spectrum, but. eh. definitely not into it. A random headcanon: he keeps nursing injured animals back to health because heās just that fucking sweet and bringing them back to his house to keep them warm and safe while they recover and his team knows vaguely about this and ino and shikamaru like to poke fun at him for it but since they donāt tend to encounter said animals, itās not really a huge deal.
of course they stop by his house one day bc he hadnāt shown up for training which is annoying and frankly a little concerning and finding the house mostly empty ino just bursts on into choujiās room only to immediately have the opossum heās been caring for latch its little paws on her face and cling.
itās a bad morning. General Opinion over said character: literally one of my absolute favorites of all time and it really breaks my heart how overlooked he is in the fandom (seriously yāall...). i think kishimoto is kind of a stupid hack and the Fat Jokes are really grating and it sucks to see that so intrinsically tied to his character (like. just let him be fat. jesus christ) but his kindness and overall relaxed, loyal and lovable nature has me just melting. i adore him.Ā
Shikamaru
Sexuality Headcanon: Heās gay, scoob. (I could also talk a lot about how his earlier misogyny is both a product of being a whiny tween and also some internalized frustration of like WHATS SO GREAT ABOUT GIRLS. UGH. I DONT. STOP TELLING ME IM GONNA FALL IN LOVE WITH ONE ONE DAY DAD JESUS. and letās be real, thats frustrating, even if it aint an excuse)Ā Gender Headcanon: he uses he/him pronouns because itās just what heās used to and comfortable with but man gender is such a drag... A ship I have with said character: SEE ABOVE SHIKACHO RANT A BROTP I have with said character: naruto! he and naruto have a really adorable friendship and i love love LOVE that he and chouji were shown to be kind and accepting of him even when most people were shunning him. also heās so fucking dumb i love seeing shikamaru meticulously plan out something only to have naruto shriek into battle and ruin all of it. love those guys. stupid bros.Ā A NOTP I have with said character: ok. im sorry i just. loathe sh*katema i really do. i haaaate the way kishimoto writes this wholeĀ āew a GIRLāĀ āew a MANā vibe with the like OOOH BUT THEYRE GONNA LIKE EACH OTHER vibe like.Ā
donāt get me wrong i adore them as friends, i think theyāre fantastic scathing and witty pals who bitch about anything and everything including each other
but theyāre also both gay and kishimoto can suck my nuts byeeee A random headcanon: sometimes pakkun just fucking Shows up and chills with him. shikamaru wants absolutely no part of this but is way too lazy to like. do anything about it so itās just this guy and a dog sitting in a field chillin and occasionally him piping up likeĀ āhey kid. remember when i bit your hand? yeah? haha, man time sure does fly.ā while shikamaru is just. go aWAY.Ā Ā General Opinion over said character: if you told 9 year old me watching naruto for the first time my favs were gonna be a three way tie of lee, shikamaru and chouji i never would have fucking believed you but here we are. i love him. i absolutely love him. heās such a whiny bastard and a really good depiction of burnout genius who doesnt want to do ANYTHING, but his intellect is an absolute DELIGHT to watch. i love him very much.Ā
Lee
Sexuality Headcanon: heās pan!! this is a boy that crushes easily and crushes hard on just about anyone!!!! Gender Headcanon: cis male A ship I have with said character: ok i ship him a lot with neji actually? what with how neji grows during the course of the series to regard lee with the respect he deserves is really sweet and thereās just something so infinitely adorable about him going around being the hammiest, most ridiculously earnest, kind and enthusiastic person and neji, now that he isnāt constantly bitter and angry at the world can finally really see that? lee is always happily dropkicking his way into his life, like he wouldnāt have it any other way, and i think thatās just...so sweet A BROTP I have with said character: SAKURAAAAA. oh my GOD do i adore their relationship. ever since lee saved her and basically just gave her a glimpse of his...lee-ness, the fact her negative opinion of him IMMEDIATELY flipped and gave her such a strong admiration and fondness for him kills me DEAD. she always treats him with so much respect and the fact sheās quick to rag on anyone making fun of him melts my HEART!! and on leeās side, his little crush on her is adorable of course, but the sheer strength of the friendship that comes from it is more than infatuation could ever offer him. i want them to hang out together and talk about their troubles...i want them to make each other laugh and be so very kind to each other...i want sakura to storm over and throw him over her shoulder to TAKE A BREAK ALREADY when heās been training too hard for too long. god. A NOTP I have with said character: honestly iām pretty happy with a lot of lee ships! the only ones i view with obvious disdain are the ones with creepy age gaps honestly. A random headcanon: out of everyone in the leaf genin, heās probably the closest anyoneās ever come to someone who EVERYONE is at least distantly friendly towards. like god have you SEEN how warm and inviting and concerned he is the SECOND he sees that naruto is feeling down? i get the sense heās immediately inclined to provide that kind of support to any of his comrades, even the ones that Resist it.
you think sasuke is the most popular among the leaf genin? puh-LEASE. everyone looks on rock lee with at least a LITTLE bit of warmth. thats just fact. General Opinion over said character: since my first viewing of naruto he has been my Absolute fav, and while chouji and shikamaru are veeery close to stealing that spot, one look at him and i feel heās gonna be on top forever. probably the best written character kishimotoās ever produced thatās remained in Ā the main cast (tho i dont speak for shipudden onwards who fucking knows, but the truth of it is is i adore rock lee)
Gaara
Sexuality Headcanon: Panromantic Asexual Gender Headcanon: kind of like shikamaru, i feel like he uses he/him pronouns but also doesnāt particularly....Care? A ship I have with said character: ok so it wasnt until my naruto rewatch that i really started falling into this but i think him and naruto are super cute? while i loathe kishimoto for ruining so much abt this show he really is good at creating good foils to naruto, and gaara is no exception--and the way naruto changes his life by just kicking his ass (and proving heās not just a Simp or smth) and then just, extending genuine empathy and a REAL sense of truly relating to where heās coming from re:his upbringing? the EFFECT it has on him, bro!!!! my god!!! i feel like theyāre that opposites attract ship that donāt clash constantly but instead fall into this adorable synergy and understanding? and i think thats so sweet A BROTP I have with said character: ...is it cheating to just put temari and kankuro here? bc they are literally his siblings but my GOD do i love their relationship. thereās something so deeply sad about their initial situation??? like having siblings that either are deeply fucking afraid of you or clearly donāt care for your well being whatsoever, itās such a tragic scenario, and the times where they really do show legitimate care for gaara just breaks my heart...but the GROWTH. THE DEVELOPMENT. THE HEALING. i love the sand siblings so much, i am a STRONG advocate of seeing the development from estranged family to loving, occasionally bickering siblings who absolutely Love Each Other A NOTP I have with said character: uhhhh same with lee in that i donāt really mind most of the ships iāve seen him in? while i donāt particularly ship gaalee i think its also Very Cute, and really it all just seems pretty valid as long as people arenāt being creepy? A random headcanon: iāve been wracking my brain for one for a good 20 minutes and i just donāt have one heās such a mystery to me/????? i love him but he is an enigma?? General Opinion over said character: oh my god heās such an edgelord in the beginning. iāve been doing a lot of this naruto rewatch with my friend @drashseedĀ (a simply phenomenal fella 10/10 follow him) and every single time he talked the only valid response just became āok gaaraā
but his backstory? utterly HEARTWRENCHING. and his growth is just. absolutely divine, i adore him. thank you mister sandman for doing so much for us all.
Hinata
Sexuality Headcanon: Bisexual Gender Headcanon:Ā cis woman A ship I have with said character: listen. i think kibahina is........Really Really cute. he cares about her so MUCH??? and thereās a certain tenderness to his interactions with her thatās just really evident whenever you see em together? i really love that you get the sense hinata is COMFORTABLE around him!!! like! i feel like hinata really deserves to have a partner who sees her when she ISNāT blushing and stammering? when sheās like? legitimately comfortable and being HERSELF? (dgmw the blushing is adorable i fucking love her but its one of the gripes i have with naruhina that so much of it is just naruto being oblivious and her having a small panic attack) the comfort she and kiba have make for a chill, adorable relationship i just cry over constantly A BROTP I have with said character: so i was GONNA put naruto here, but technically i already put him there for shikamaruās so iām gonna say neji!!! uhhh OBVIOUSLY they got off to a. very rough start but the way their dynamic changed (or perhaps in a way reverted back to the times they interacted before nejiās father died and temporarily killed his Human Decency) into this respect and fondness thatās just...such a delight to watch? iām a SUCKER for slow and mutual reconciliation and there are just so many sweet moments between them. they are FAMILY, BRO!!! THEY CARE FOR EACH OTHER, BRO!!!!!!!!!! A NOTP I have with said character: ...at the risk of sounding like a broken record, i think a lot of hinata ships are quite cute? i guess iām gonna have to say sasuke. because like.
has. he ever even looked at her. please. jesus christ. she deserves so much better. A random headcanon: she is a LOT physically stronger than she looks!! a lot of her combat techniques rely on taijustu after all so itād make sense that she puts a lot of effort into physical training alongside chakra control.
iām trying to say sheās strong. not as strong as sakura but. she can lift her bf up over her head (heās dying hes dying heās dYING he lOVES HER SO MUCH). itās pretty fuckign badass
General Opinion over said character: i LOVE her??? honest to god i really really do--honestly while i dislike the direction they went in canon with her, i really loved seeing her be motivated to grow and change the parts of herself she hated to become a stronger person.
that and sheās so fucking cute and sweet and i just??????? bless her honestly.

NOT to be found family on main BUT pls consider.. lucy adopting/parenting the lost boys after max gets killed
the boys all survive, albiet with injuries that take a while to heal bc they were all injured w Vampire Killing Intent. theyre all laying around in the hotel when lucy marches in, first aid kit in hand and sam being dragged reluctantly w her. micheal tags along too. lucy is horrified at the messy ass cave but doesnt clean bc she knows its not Her Space, its the boys and she respects their privacy/independence.
marko is doing the worst, since the boys could only give him rudimentary first aid before rushing off to attack micheal/the frog bros. heās feverish and delirious and thinks lucy is his mom. she cradles his cheek and pets his hair as she patches up his chest (marko is trans and lucy is like Hell Yeah Another Trans Son). the stake missed his heart but his lungs are fucked now bc getting stabbed as a vamp is Not Great.
dwayne is next- heās got a big scar on his back and nerve damage from the electrocution. maybe some cool lightening scars once he heals up. he has more trouble w memory now bc yknow. brain damage. lots of flashing can possibly trigger seizures for him, and he has issues with movement disorder type things- tics, uncontrollable shaking, etc.
paul is just absolutely covered in burns, and his hair is falling out in chunks bc his skin is peeling off. think acid burns? his skin gets a little melty and heās got some bad scarring, esp in his face once he heals. he takes the longest to heal just because he canāt do much of anything without tearing his skin up bc its super delicate as it grows back. its a very frustrating process. hes normally a cheery dude but he kinda falls into a funk trying to recover.
david is similar to marko in his injuries. heās got some lung issues afterwards but he mostly heals ok. heās more guarded around lucy, and he heals quicker bc hes the lead vamp and has been around the longest/is stronger than his brothers.
other than marko who passes out after calling lucy mom and crying a little theyre all REALLY nervous around her, theyre all like dogs baring their teeth when they cant even stand up. but lucy just goes about her business and tries to help them. sam is scared shitless of the vamps but lucy is 100% fearless and has NO issue telling david off for trying to get up when he should be resting. she brings them animal blood (courtesy of the widow johnson) with straws stuck in it like caprisun and sits there holding an actual caprisun and drinking it with them. she plays pauls records when he asks but usually picks stuff she recognizes as opposed to newer music that sam and micheal like. dwayne finds it kinda nice, bc she likes groovier/more chill music rather than super harsh or fast music. micheal apologizes to david and david apologizes (sort of) to micheal. david is a very prideful dude after all, but he does genuinely feel bad for ruining the emersonās house/lives because his crazy ass ādadā wanted a make-believe family.
and just bc i hate max- he turned david against his will after seeing him as a kid and thinking āhm id love to be a father but alas i am a vampire, guess i will stalk this abused child until he is adult-ish age and take him as my own!ā. no one gave a shit when max took david since his family sucked. david was basically an impromptu parent for a ton of neighborhood kids and his siblings bc his parents were shit and didnt care about him- it was more of an image thing anyways. so he has all the Big Brother instincts but was forced to grow up too young and has trouble cutting loose bc of this. (ill get into this in a later post maybe?). anyways max took all the lost boys in against their wills/without their consent, which is why david doesnt ask micheal to join, he just gets him to drink the blood. which i always thought was fucked up anyways. david only knows vampires who were forced to turn (him and all the lost boys).
meanwhile star takes some time to recover away from the boys and regains her humanity a bit- she does love their little family, cobbled together out of a lot of desperation and a lot of love, but she needs some time away to think things over now that she knows it wasnt david who was holding her there, it was max. laddie is super worried about his big bros and goes completely nonverbal (normally he is semiverbal). star is worried about him and convinces lucy to take him to see the boys after the more gorey wounds have healed, bc although laddie has Seen Some Shit he is also a Literal Child and doesnāt deserve to be exposed to that. and now that he has a Genuine Adult who isnt a weird vampire looking after him, lucy can make sure he gets looked after and treated like a child. bc although the lost boys did their best, none of them are really Parents.
lucy backs off once the boys are more healed, but they end up spending a lot of time at the emersonās anyways!! they help rebuild the house and clean up, since the plumbing got fuckin destroyed and the house is kind of missing a wall. grandpa is annoyed abt it but he puts the boys to work(at night ofc), since heās crotchety but heās also noticed that the missing/murdered people usually arent good people. paul loves to bake with lucy and dwayne loves to cook/try new recipes for people who will appreciate a fancy meal (hes secretly grandpas fav for the food only). paul also loves to bond w lucy over music and actually gets on well with sam- heās got a slacker middle child vibe that sam warms up to eventually and they become super tight! marko and sam have a youngest-sibling rivalry (kind of) but it eventually fades from constant bickering into them tag-teaming whining at david or micheal or dwayne for whatever they want this time. micheal and dwayne vibe really well bc dwayne likes to spend quality time w people by sitting with them in silence, doing their own thing, and micheal enjoys just vibing w people since sam is loud and his mom always anxiously fills silence w chatter. nothing against her, but sometimes its a lot for micheal, so he enjoys just sitting with dwayne in silence for hours at a time.
marko realizes maybe 2 months after they recover that he called lucy mom and avoids the house for like a week out of embarrassment, but lucy just smiles and calls him her crafty animal son and pats his stupid mullet. he loves to bring her animals, especially birds since she has some experience keeping birds. they dont keep the wild animals but lucy does notice that more wildlife seems to come around the house now that the lost boys are visiting. sam and david have the funniest relationship bc sam is like āfuck you i fucking hate youā and david is like āmy friends little brother foams like a rabid chihuahua when i come over pls helpā. sam wont be rude to david bc lucy said be nice but he will also not Interact Unless Necessary so like. david will be like āhey! champ..! how was... school!ā bc hes trying to be fucking nice but he hasnt interacted with childrne other than laddie in Years and sam will be like āgood.ā and they just fucking stare at each other while dwayne does ollies in the background until marko and paul roll in with scissors and bleach like āWHO WANTS A MAKEOVER MICHEAL ALREADY GOT ONEā and micheal is chasing them with tinfoil in his hair with a stuffed woodchuck in his hands ready to murder
#the lost boys#the king writes meta#is this meta?? idk but damn i sure wrote it! hopefully i can figure out how to do an under the cut thingy bc this is long as FUCK#anyways autism brain go brrrrrrrr#gore tw#medical tw#injury tw#death mention#written gore#im tagging just to be safe but its all under the cut#ask to tag if needed

Stein and alllll the AU asks?
ALRIGHT WEāRE SPEEDRUNNING THIS ONE!!! THANKS FOR SENDING!!!!!!!
cowboy AU: whoās the protective sheriff? whoās the tough outlaw? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Aha!! Stitches wouldnāt be the sheriff, though she would be running the small dusty town with her partners. Ashes would be the sheriff, Feathers would be the deputy, and Stitches would be the doctor!!! Stein as an outlaw would be rugged, terrifying, amazing. Never know whether heāll kill you or fix you up. Theyād meet one night when she catches him stealing her medical supplies, and theyād have a āsecretā fling as she tries to get him to change his ways.
florist and tattoo artist AU: who owns the floral shop? who owns the tattoo parlor across the street? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
This ones difficult!! I actually canāt figure one out for this. I suppose Stitches could be the tattoo artist and Stein could be the florist, maybe?? Hrmmmmā¦.. Iām bad at this type. Tattoo artist is such a specific thing and it doesnāt fit either of them well!!!!!
pirate AU: whoās the infamous captain of the ship? whoās the determined stowaway that joins the crew? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stein is the captain 100%, Stitches is a huge fan of his deeds who wants to get close to him, so away she goes!! Trying to uncover the mysteries of this terrifying man shrouded in whispered stories and fearful legends. Sheās young and dumb and full ofā¦. determination.Ā
arranged marriage AU: whoās the one being shipped off to an unfamiliar kingdom? whoās the heir that has to welcome their betrothed? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stitches is probably the one being shipped off, sheās troublesome, chaotic, not a very good noblewoman, all too easily corruptible. Stein is a lonely older man, never been one for relationships, but heās got a good trade and a lot of money and her parents are willing to be rid of her!!!!!
mafia AU: who is the ruthless leader? who is their loyal second in command? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stitches is the leaaaaaader, known as The Wolf, sheās cruel and violent and as cold as ice and the only thing scarier than her is her partner. A doctor who sheās grown attached to with a hankering for opening people up. Most tight lips come loose when theyāre told their interrogation will be acted out by this horribly gruesome pair.
1950s AU: whoās the popular prep that stays out of trouble? whoās the cool greaser who loves causing trouble? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Steinās the prep!! But heās not staying out of trouble, heās just creepy and has no friends. Stitches is a cig smoking, guns blazing rebel who keeps on running into him. Thereās not much to say abt this one!!
masquerade AU: who is the generous host of the ball? who is the mysterious guest? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stitches should be the host in this one, itās a pretty unrefined masquerade, infact pretty wild. Lots of freakshow things and circus acts and flying colors. Remember the party they threw for Fester in the Addams Family movie?? Itās like that a bit!!! Little less goth. Stein is an odd guest who keeps being mistaken for an entertainer, probably because Stitches canāt keep her eyes off of him.Ā
vampire AU: whoās the secluded vampire? whoās the undaunted vampire hunter seeking them? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stitchy gets to be the vampire hunter this time!!! Iād compare her to Hugh Jackmanās Van Helsing. Kinda silly at times, super cocky, but has the smarts and skills to back it up. Also Iām putting my bff in this one bc I want him to be the friar that invents the cool tools and is her best friend. ALSO Stein is Dracula and Stitches has killed his previous brides and now he wants to make HER his bride and itās epic. Watch Van Helsing 2004.
bartender AU: whoās the hard working bartender? whoās the regular whoās had a string of bad luck? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stein is the bartender and Stitches is the alcoholic. Sheās a bit far gone in this one, having lost a lot and gained naught in return. Stein supports her and talks to her and tries to help as best he can. Itās only on the night she shows up at his door long after closing, with a cat in her arms and a bag on her shoulder, begging him for sanctuary, that he realizes just how far heāll go to help her.
angel and demon AU: who is an angel? who is a demon? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Generally my s/is take the demon role and thatās not changing today. Iām a sucker for the cruel and cold angel paired with the rowdy and genuinely not so bad demon. And thatās them!! Stitches is probably just doing some smalltime job on Earth trying to cause some minor chaos andā¦ instead sheās thwarted and taken the fuck down by an angel just dying to see what demons are really made of.Ā
royal and guard AU: who is the confined royal? who is their dutiful guard? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
I rlly like leader Stitches with guardian Stein, can you blame me? Sheās been locked up in her castle for a long time, trying to piece together how to win an old, old war. Stein is her caretaker, keeping her safe and making sure she takes care of herself rather than falling into madness and disarray due to her obsession with the war. Little does she know heās been fighting a madness all his own, holding himself together through love for her alone.
android AU: who is a curious android? who is their dependable mechanic? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Iāmmm gonna make Stein the mechanic, Stitches is less needing to be fixed and more just a willing experiment. Though she does need fixing pretty often. Lots of unintended feelings and weird chats while her chest cavity is wide open. Itās good. Very good.
cosmic deity AU: whoās the personification of the sun? whoās the personification of the moon? give one headcanon about you and your f/oās relationship in this AU!
Stitches is the fiery sun god and Stein is the lonely moon god. She brings to him a thousand bright days, and he gives her time to rest. They are ever apart and ever together, loving each other from across the night sky.
THAT WAS A LOT, wow my hands are tired. Thank you as always for sending me big things like this, it gives me stuff to do on my writing days and gives me a lot of good practice in plot design.

welcome 2 her twisted mind....tw murder & general . crazy on main activities...Ā
BACKSTORYĀ
so she was born in valencia, spain which is a pretty costal town hehe...and she was raised in an orphanage ! by nuns ! like she was dropped off at their doorstep as a baby and all the nuns would say about her mom was that she was a coke head and a whore so JDHDGDF they didnāt know anything about her dad though and isabella was honestly cool with that she didnāt care ... like as a little girl she would just dream up wild fantasies abt her mom being this crazy evil lady like the nuns pictured her and it actually ... comforted her ?? she was a weird kid . she was super interested in religion just bc she loved the idea of cosmic punishments and all these big dramatic things that happened in the Bible and she asked a lot of questions but only abt like the violent stuff so the nuns started to worry abt her also isabella creeped all the other kids out like sheād try to play with them but her version of playing games was like .. oh i found some rat bones in the attic letās make a necklace (: or like sheād make up little chants in what she thought was nonsense and then weird things would happen afterwards so the kids started calling her a bruja which means witch and isabella was just like damn . tough crowd fuck u guys too !!
anyway eventually all the kids she grew up with started to get adopted or put into foster homes and the orphanage was like super strict so if u werenāt getting put into a home u couldnāt even really explore spain like they were just cooped up there and when she was around 15 she just .. snapped like she wasnāt getting any offers for adoption bc she creeped everyone out and she had a bad reputation at the orphanage and the nuns didnāt really treat her nicely and she just wanted to escape ! so she waited and then one day there was this insane thunderstorm and it knocked out the power and isabella just . poofed out the window and never looked back .. and so a new chapter in her life began ..so growing up as a kid she was like ... not really a bad person so to speak but she didnāt have the same understanding of morals that everyone around her did like in her mind things were morally okay if she didnāt feel bad about it but ... she didnāt really feel bad about anything so she was like well cool i guess itās all ok then ! so she was 13 literally no money just on the streets of valencia trying to scam her way to barcelona and she did some ... questionable things in the process.. may or may not have robbed some spanish aristocrats.. among other things .. but by the time she was 14 she made it to barcelona so what does it matter ! anyway thatās where she got her snake literally on the first night in barcelona this drunk dude coming home from a bar tried to attack her and this snake came out of nowhere and just . bit him and he died and then the snake just curled around her legs and started following her around so she was like guess this is my life now . sick BSHZHDFshe does her own thing for a while with her new snake just being a genuinely weird teen in spain no family just making up lies about where she came from to scare people also robbing ppl to be able to find places to sleep obviously mingling with like .. no good ppl bc who else is gonna talk to a creepy girl with a pet snake JSHSGDDĀ
then on her 16th bday she meets this man and he knows her name and sheās like fuck . did the nuns send u and heās like im gonna tell u everything abt ur past if u come with me NOW and sheās like ok (: so they stay at this little inn and while heās sleeping her snake wraps itself around his throat and he wakes up and sheās like ur gonna tell me everything rn or ur gonna die so he was like well shit . u come from a coven of witches that used to live in vermont and were hunted down one by one and killed as punishment for an incident that killed a whole town of innocent ppl so ur mom ran away to spain and gave u up for adoption to save ur life but they found her and she died and now it gonna die if u stay in spain and she was like huh . and didnāt kill him /: and the next day they started there two year journey...traveling all around europe before finally coming to Vermont to meet with the last surviving witches from her covenwhatever so they meet and isabella is like huh so tell me abt what you guys did that killed all those ppl that sounds cool and they were like ... uh no thatās not important rn ? whatās important is that u get ur powers itās almost ur 18th bday so for like a week sheās with them getting to know them... and the man that brought her there disappeared like she starts to realize he didnāt even stay to see the other witches and when she mentions the guy that brought her they were like WHAT and she was like yeah thought u guys knew him...and they were like oh my god we have to leave rn after ur bday tonight and she was just like fine whatever where are we going and they were like as if weād tell u and . that made her angry /: so they do the ceremony signing her name into the book and she gets her powers blah blah she canāt find her snake so sheās like .. looking for him and she wanders away and when she comes back .. all the witches that were from her coven that did her ceremony are all dead and the man that brought her there is back and heās like hey isabella and heās holding her snake and sheās like so ur the one that killed everyone right ur the one that was hunting the coven down and heās like yeah sorry Ā and he gives her back the snake and heās like donāt worry im not gonna kill u (: i have big plans for u !so once again sheās like i guess this is my fucking life now...Ā
and sheās honestly not even that sad about her coven like they kinda annoyed her and sheās curious about this witch hunter dude bc it reminds her of all the stories she used to love from the Bible abt divine justice so he brings her to ... new york baby ! sheās 18 sheās got her fresh new powers and this guy starts training her which was ... not always a smooth ride there were lots of accidents and lots of āaccidentsā but heās teaching her obviously shaping her in a way she knows is only gonna benefit him but she needs the training so she just goes along with it .. also at the same time sheās going fucking CRAZY in New York shes just causing so much trouble this guy is honestly sick of her so after three years of him trying to tell her what to do and he doing the exact opposite heās like u know what . im not ur father i LITERALLY killed ur whole family maybe i should have killed u too and sheās just loving it sheās like yeah u probably should have ! and heās like what the fuck sheās crazy sheās enjoying this...so he just gives up again and heās like cool so hereās what youāve been training for . thereās a coven of witches here and weāre gonna kill them and sheās like im sorry what and heās like did I stutter . so she kinda has ... no choice but to follow him and help him out but the gag is . she was pretty annoyed with him .. nothing too serious but he was a MAJOR buzzkill you know so when theyāre about to kill these witches sheās like hmm you know what ... how abt i just kill you instead ! and he was like are u kidding and sheās like nope /: and BOOP . she kills him ! BSGSGDGSF and the witches that he was gonna murder are so grateful she saved them theyāre like hey you donāt have a coven ur alone why donāt u...go to witch school...and sheās like whatās that so they tell her abt . blackwater academy Ā and thatās how she ends up there...at the age of 21....hehe
PERSONALITY
if u have seen killing eve . i 100% based her personality on villanelle......if u havent seen killing eve WATCH IT .. ALSO took inspo from elektra from daredevil, katherine from tvd & faye from the secretĀ circle xxxĀ basically isabella is like...she understands ppl have emotions but ... her brain just doesnt work the same her empathy is fucked so 99% of the time shes doing stuff genuinely not caring abt who it affects except for herself...also ... SHE LOVES FUN ! literally the worst thing u can do is bore her . she plays games folks ... shes dramatic ... doesnt take anyone seriously except herself ! shes just .. shes something ! oh also . shes a top so if u wanna raw her ur gonna be a bottom and u will enjoy it thank u gn ! x

(hi, hfw asker here)
god no actually, i thought i was the only one who struggled so much with the ac valhalla boat! i genuinely half the time felt like that austin powers golf cart scene
i totally agree, i loved the romance in valhalla! but also just the relationships in general, since i think you spend a lot more time with your allies in valhalla than in odyssey (i cried when soma died).
and thatās part of why i think youāre so right when you say that in many ways it wouldāve been less sad for eivor to carry the staff than kassandra. eivorās whole deal was that she had a family, she had a home, and she needed to protect those things. eivor being able to chase after honor and glory was due to her already having those things to return to. kassandraās whole deal was that she didnāt have either, and she spends the entire story wandering all over the world trying to find these things, and she gets so little time with them before sheās asked to take on this incredibly heavy burden of knowing that sheāll outlive all of them. when i tell you that words couldnāt describe how i felt when you play as layla and you go to finally relieve her of the staff and allow kassandra to rest in peaceā¦
and also yeah, whatās the deal with randvi never leaving the map room? all i can do is š
about horizon: i feel like i should add the disclaimer that i still donāt love using the spear in it much, but i donāt think it hinders my playthrough at all
and lastly, regarding dark souls: i am, somewhat shamefully, a āif it sucks, stick in it easy modeā player, so it might not be the game for me to play, but watching playthroughs is probably still on the table!
sorry i lied, this is the last thing: have you played hades?
lol i cannot imagine how anyone could have an easy time w the boat in that game literally at the one part where u get attacked on the boat i was like NOPE! and just power sailed out of there instead of fighting like it wanted me to lol. and omggggg do NOT mention soma dying to me i was SO upset i had seen smth that made me think she wasnāt going to die so i was not expecting it at ALL so when it happened i was like TF are u kidding??? i really wish they hadnāt killed her for a lot of reasons but esp since she was the only other place that was led by a woman ykwimā¦.like did u have to kill herā¦.also ngl i totally would have romanced her if i could have which made it worse š although randvi was already jealous w/o that happening so lolā¦..
but yeah i 100% agree eivor had been living w love & community her whole life vs kassandra only just finding that and immediately having to leave to find the isu artifacts :( the whole game is abt searching for her family and just when u all reunite its like lol time to go travel the world alone and watch everyone u love die while u r immortal kassandra š¤© like fuck off thats soooo mean. itās a harsh thing to do for any character but esp kassandra who really cares for ppl so deeply & thrives off of connecting w other ppl. seeing her in valhalla is so sad w her saying she canāt be around other ppl and she hasnāt been to a party in so long knowing how much she loved forming connections w ppl is just so š but i love that they allow u to give that to her one more time thru eivor fr. also that bit where she gives layla the staff is so hard for me bc on one hand itās like iām so glad u get to let her finally have peace on the other hand itās awful to see her die right in front of u š© dude i just love kassandra so much why did they have to make her story so heartbreakingā¦ā¦
i have been using a spear for a bit in dark souls & although i still donāt like it i kept using it bc it was my best weapon so i can do a spear if i have to š© def wonāt put me off of the game iām sure id get used to it even if i will def wish i could use a sword lol
dark souls does not have an easy mode so i would def not recommend it to u it is super hard and so frustrating (idk how much u know abt dark souls so i will explain) bc when u kill enemies u get souls to level up w but when u die u lose all ur souls & the only way to get them back is to make it back to the spot where u died & pick them up so if u die again before u get there u lose all of those souls forever. & every time u die all of the enemies except bosses respawn. lost 11000 souls like two days ago and it was like the life drained out of me in real life too fr š©
i have not played hades but i MIGHT have it on my switch. i remember i had added a game on my wishlist bc it sounded cool & then bought it bc it was on sale and the name sounds familiar to me so i think it may have been that? could have been a totally different game tho lol.
#SORRY i took so long to answer this again i have been sleeping so badly#& have not had the mental capacity š© trying to do better tho lol š#eldesterinys#ask //

so iām abt to make the most lacklustre intro for myself and my muse in a While.. i promise iām not as boring as i might seem in t-2 seconds glkjsdfk but hey guys !! iām lia, a uni student from a v bizarre tz if i do say so myself, and i am Never prepared for anything ā case and point, i still havenāt changed the sidebar pic for this blog, and i only changed it to saeromās like, an hour ago SKDGFGJDKFS i donāt have any pages up yet, but i will soon so sit tight while i sort them out ! anyways iām literally copying my small key points thing i had for her when i was gonna use her on an indie.. but never fucking did, yāknow, like a good mun ! so forgive me if theyāre a little.. :/ messy skgdjkdfg so hereās my chaotic leo, a bitch who prob has a knife kink and is perhaps one of the least-liked people in her gang and beyond !!!
*ā§ļ½„ļ¾ [ PARK CHAEYOUNG, CIS FEMALE, SHE/HER ] So, KANG SAEROM, you think you have what it takes to join ROSE GOLDEN? At only TWENTY-TWO, I hope you know what it is youāre signing up for. Thereās more too it than just the reputation. Being CANDID might help you out, however letās hope they donāt get tired of you being CUNNING. Good luck to you. [ lia, 18+, gmt-3:30 ]
fun fact: i waited until some of you posted yours just in case i had to edit mine bc.. romy originally had some psychopathic tendencies ( which with her soon-to-be disclosed criminal bg is.. Yikes ) and was kinda Fucked. the look of this rp, for me at first, made me wanna scale her back a bit bc i thought she wouldāve been too dark/chaotic/whatever otherwise but ! weāre sticking to the original !
ok so kang saerom is.. a piece of shit KSJGFDS
grew up in an overall loving, middle class home with her parents and big brother
baby of the family and got away with everYTHING
much of her early bg is still underdeveloped but she was a fairly average kid ??Ā
when she grew older, she was neck deep in this desire to always get involved in dangerous shit, like
idk who or what corrupted her still.... but she got corrupted quickly GKJDS
graduated high school and p much abandoned the family, went off and decided to con people for a living for a while
not like she wasnāt lowkey scamming people back in hs however.. hs kids could scam people, idk sfgjkfd
she also dealt drugs to boot ! got in with whatever group of fellow grifters she met when moving around and rubbed elbows with a coke supplier one of them was good with and it just went from thereĀ ??Ā
we love a businesswoman !
at some point in that stint, she found rose golden and.. yeah, thatās where she wound up fdfgj
sheās been with them for about two years and has sort of climbed up the ranks to be one of their hit(wo)men.. which makes you thinkĀ ā lia, arenāt you being a bit too Cracked and making her a criminal mary sue ? ā
to which i say no......... and iāll tell you why
can you tell that the antonio garza effect affects me too ?? anyways KSDGJGKDS
as i said, romy is That Bitch who goes to the next extreme in what she does, anything for a power trip, so the more illegal or dangerous in this case, the better
it comes from this feeling of boredom and she def got bored of the drug gig, so she thought of the other roles within the group and ?? murder sounded fun ig ?
DFKJFKL but ofc she had to be trained and shit, but she had the sneaky part down so. it involved Everything Else
but yeah, now she kills people for the gang ! fun !
which.. is kind of a jump from selling coke, sure, but nonetheless ā
PERSONALITY AND SHIT
just so weāre clear, when she was younger, romy def didnāt exhibit as many of her messier traits as she does now, but she did have a way with deceit and a sort of glibness, although it could be rather genuine more than it was fake ( like it is now )
but weāre here to focus on present!romy so.... yeah dsgkjgds
one thing she isnāt is completely without self-control; she carries herself in a cool and collected way and isnāt prone to Snapping for little or sometimes good reason, emotionally or physically for that matter
but killing a man for taking the last chocolate glaze ?? not as unlikely as youād think !Ā
.. same can be said for taunting or challenging people
or starting a physical confrontation to prove a Point, etc
so thereās still some leeway there
p detached, couldnāt care less abt most people ( some of which might even be in rose golden but anyways )
can be promiscuous...... weāre gonna leave that there KGSDJDG
i will say that sheās sexually fluid though soĀ !!Ā ladiesĀ hit her up !
and men too ig........ as long as youāre not musty
sheās also rather callous and snide, clever and self-involved
v versatile ( keep her track record in mind folks ! KFSDGJGDF ) and is responsible where she thinks it counts, for example her role in the gang
she hasnāt rly felt guilty for her actions.. like ever but i wouldnāt discount such a thing as being impossible
sheās honest where it counts, and sometimes beyond that, despite her still being prone to lying ( which, yāknow, is good in her situation ?? sgklgsdjf )
she def thinks sheās Somebody by now........ and try as some might, you canāt rly put her in her place from that standpoint SGDFKJFDGS
anyways i suspect the senior members of the gang get annoyed with her bc of her moments of Clear disorder so perhaps sheās on thin ice ? perhaps not ?!
so thatās everything i can think of typing for her rn, albeit p all over the place and Negative sdfkjgkdsf but if youād like to plot, hmu ! iām also over on discord and donāt mind giving out my username !
#pabintro#ā³ā: ā welcome to chili's ! ā¢ć ooc ! ć#oh my god.. i've finally settled#SDFKGJDFGSK#watch me have a meltdown over something within it and delete. i'm clueless af sdfkgd
