Lucifer "doesn't watch much TV" because it "rots the brain." Vox isn't outright nasty about Lucifer personally, but he's comfortable calling Charlie a "brat," which implies that he doesn't exactly think highly of the royal family. They both, of course, have beef with Alastor.

In the 2011 article where Professor Schaverien publically debuts her concept of boarding school syndrome she has this fucking line, “For the first time in their life the child may be in a situation where there is no intimate contact; no love,” which pulled the ripcord right out of my spine.
Roy’s potential trauma at boarding school isn’t just about the environment he was in but the home that he was deprived of. Roy was nine years old and there was nobody around him who loved him.
His grandfather’s death wasn’t just a tragedy. It wasn’t just being deprived of anymore time with him or a lack of closure from being unable to say good-bye. It was the Kent family losing an adult man who could drive and had a car.
When Roy was sent away his parents would have understood that Roy’s grandfather was going to be around to help. He could visit Roy himself or he could take over childcare duties for Roy’s sister, so that Roy’s parent’s could make the trip.
Then there is the extra financial and scheduling flexibility that is inherent of an additional adult. Working, retired, it doesn’t matter. There was one more person in the family whose job it was to help take care of everyone, and by extension Roy.
Now Roy’s family is not only dealing with grief and arrangements, it might now be impossible for there to be frequent subsequent visits from the family. It could have been very hard for Roy to make it home for the funeral. Roy might have missed holiday’s he expected to be at home because there was no one to provide transportation.
Roy spending so much time with Phoebe may be a commitment made in deliberate response to the trauma of this event. Phoebe is six in season one, so by season three she’s almost at the age Roy was when he went away. Roy might find it incredibly important that he and his sister are able to provide Phoebe a childhood with not only financial security, but adults that are physically present in her life who do not have to send her away.
From the subplot of Roy smothering Keeley, we know that Roy’s expresses affection by being physically present with his loved ones. He has no innate grasp that people can max out on time with the people he love.
He seems to experience a deep feeling of rejection at the idea that he would leave Keeley to go on vacation without her, as opposed to spending his time at home even if only one of them is not working.
I always stumbled at how strongly Roy reacted to Keeley suggesting he vacation by himself, especially after how easily he suggested canceling the entire thing. I think Keeley, after being the one to push Roy towards punditry, was trying to give him permission and encouragement to do things for himself. This is something that she herself has often needed.
But I think Roy’s takeaway emotionally was that Keeley was proposing, essentially, that it would be relaxing for Roy to abandon his girlfriend, and that she herself was unbothered by the idea of their separation.
The entirety of his latest plotline is a showcase of the depths he will go to in order to avoid being left. He broke up with Chelsea and Keeley. He categorically cannot risk giving that which he cares about the chance to leave him first.

any beam hcs i lovehim 🥹so much
I don't have much for Beam so far actually, so I'll make shit up rn LMAODSFK
- Denji: Hey Beam, do you eat fish food pellets or
Aki: Denji what the hell you're not supposed to ask stuff like th-
Beam: I LOVE FISH FOOD!! FISH FOOD AMAZING!!! FISH FOOD DELICIOUS!! LORD CHAINSAW LET'S EAT FISH FOOD TOGETHER!!!!!
Aki:
-(Beam proceeds to eat handfuls of fish food.)
-Yknow how Beam just swims in the floor next to Denji sometimes? I'd like to imagine that someone tripped over his fin by accident and he feels so bad about it after and blames himself
-Beam with top surgery scars.
-Beam and Yoshida would get along over their appreciation for Denji/CSM, that or ocean animals cause yea, shark and octopus
-Beam has tried to backhug Denji while the latter was leaning on a wall; it ended with a punch in the face but a very happy Beam cause he got to hug Denji
-Not really a hc, it's an au, but YoshiBeamJi au where Beam is just a regular human that really likes sharks, and he works at an aquarium with Yoshida who manages the octopus section. Denji visits once and both of them are like GODDAMN I WONT HIM so when Denji visits their respective areas they both try to show off with fun facts about their animals
-Denji leaves confused about his newfound bisexuality
-Beam and Yoshida are really close friends here, like, really close friends, to he point where they're oblivious that they do stuff friends don't normally do (yeah Yoshida kisses his homies goodnight, what about it)(he does forget to say no homo though so)
Here's some bonus human Beam doodles I did a while back!

Once saw a post from someone whining about when Ragatha isn’t drawn with curves and it disappointingly had a lot of traction and fans agreeing and every now and then I think about it and am like What
It’s ok to let a female character be flat. It’s ok to like a female character with a flat ass even lol.
People will complain about non-diverse body types when it comes to female characters but then turn around and do shit like that with her when given non-conventional designs.
Pomni’s shoulders are wider than her hips. Ragatha is as flat as a board. Gangle. It’s okay to still like them like this god.
Let female characters be cartoony. Let them be proportionally funny.

When you're a kid in a dysfunctional family, that shit sucks. But then you become an adult and you're like yayy I'm free. The dysfunction can no longer get me. And then SURPRISE the dysfunction can still hurt you and it still sucks. SURPRISE becoming a mature functional adult didn't give you the power to make your family treat you well. SURPRISE the only power you have over the situation is to remove yourself from it. Blegh.

Going feral about hinndredd and hinndredd Louie really all the hinndredd characters and versions of characters it’s where a lot of the older ideas regarding when hinndredd was on earth went along with the door lore, the Hamilton rip-off, the older version of current earth patchwork back when he was just a original patchwork reboot and not his own thing inspired mildly by bojack horseman, the older nightmare fuel reboot and associated lore, thauriel, Magnus tilby, more distilled and combined forms of characters that are sometimes somewhat demigod esc, the tower with myself at the top of it, azazel/cult on his endless quest to dig a pit, the scp characters, Magnus tilby, stuff regarding the origins of bauddalins, both types of joy(which ended up basically zombies without me noticing), every dropped plot thread that has ever existed, Magnus tilby
