i had to add the tags cause goddamn that’s so fucking real. and it’s so natural for him to go overboard in the other direction when trying to heal from the mindset of always trying to be smaller and nicer etc
but it goes back to what zelda said sophomore year, he’s not a weird guy offering a flower to someone the first day of school and singing a song trying not to get mad. he’s a rockstar, he’s saved the world, his friend group is the most popular and objectively coolest in the school, he’s literally killed many people which might not be that weird in spire but a good amount of those people were school faculty. like he’s intimidating and scary and cool and has a group of friends who can, have, and will kill for him.
i don’t think he fully realizes it yet but eventually he’s gonna realize when he says certain things that are healing for him because he’s breaking from his forced placidness, that those things can also really hurt other people. and i think with the support and friends and role models he has he’ll learn time and place and lines not to cross, etc, but i honestly just love to see the growth.
anyways he’s my boy and he’s finally standing up for himself unapologetically and maybe the whole rage thing is connected to the overarching plot in a bad way but honestly i don’t care gorgug deserves to be mad bffr. he’s in high school and he’s got a stellar support system he’ll learn when to be mad and when being mad is an understandable reaction and even though it’s not bad it isn’t the most useful or acceptable in every scenario.
i honestly think that Gorgug bullying Mary Ann is a good thing for the fandom bc i see so many of you guys being like "oh he's so sweet he would never hurt a fly", still treating him like he had no evolution since the first day of freshman year and the tinfoil flower... wrong. Gorgug is as capable of being a shithead as any of the others. he's a tall strong teenager who could very well turn into a bully if he wanted to, just like any of us, and who keeps getting pushed into it by his teacher and even his friends. Gorgug's road to self-affirmation cannot be brought forward without casualties, otherwise his narrative arc wouldn't have any weight ; this is a character who grew up being taught that you have to make yourself smaller, to always be kind and nice and arranging to others, while the general public kept seeing him as this big threatening monster !! of course he's going to take up some bad behaviors on the way of breaking free out of that. i hope he keeps having outbursts until the bad kids are forced to realize that it's not so fun anymore and to actually intervene.
#anyways i really do love cunty gorgug but i do think this is an interesting arc for him#he’s gotta realize he’s not the backpack stealing freak he was freshman year anymore#obviously he never was that person but people don’t perceive him as that person anymore#which is hard for him to get cause he has self esteem issues but realizing it will help him temper his temper (lol)#i also will say i think so far in *most* scenarios he hasn’t gone overboard yet#obviously the maryanne thing was but at the same time there’s a very good chance she and her adventuring party are like#killing lots of people and trying to make everyone rage and corrupt gods etc etc#which obviously doesn’t make it ok but in the context it makes a lot of sense why he’s so fucking mad cause i most people would be i think#and the bad kids did immediately tell him to stop love that for them#outside of maryanne i feel like the only others i can think of was oinking at the cop and calling bobby dawn a ‘regular freak’#i might be missing some but oinking at the cop is totally justified in my book and bobby dawn is awful#though i don’t love the word freak in general and they use it a ton in the show#anyways gorgug my beloved ur so me and also nothing like me at all i just wanna put you in a rage room so you can smash things#and then have a conversation about how emotions are valid and good but actions are different from emotions#fantasy high#fhjy spoilers#fantasy high junior year#dimension 20#gorgug thistlespring#the bad kids#fhjy
