man i love flowey so much, i don’t think i ever realized just how funny he is when i was a teenager. i love that he save scums. i love that he gets mad when you interrupt his monologue. i love that he talks like an anime villain because he thinks frisk is chara and is playing the world’s longest game of edgy oc playground roleplaying. he has the strongest cain instinct i have ever seen. he projects like crazy. he is an incredibly sore loser. i love him
#don’t get me wrong he is also very tragic and a deeply traumatized child put in a weird undeath situation#experiencing immense grief and his body is now something that is entirely a reminder of that grief#he is a fascinating character. but also he’s funny.#i love when asriel says ‘’maybe i was projecting a little bit’’#like. yeah. just a little

There's a direct line from seven-year-old Peter crying and saying "I know I sound crazy, but I'm not" when he talks about being kidnapped from "the other world at the bottom of the lake" and then being subsequently gaslit into repressing all the memories of his childhood, to adult Peter's anger at Walter because-- in his words-- "being crazy was something he did to us" and his bitter sarcasm early in the series in response to every fringe event or theory that sounds weird or crazy.
There's a deep-seated fear of being disbelieved or seen as crazy, and that anger and sarcasm come as a defense mechanism. It's probably also what led to his time as a drifter and (essentially) con-man.
#peter bishop#fringe#peter's backstory is something I turn over and over in my head#just.#the enormity of they kidnapped him and then gaslit him so hard he permanently repressed his entire childhood#olivia is there too having a traumatic childhood that she also represses but olivia does get little breakthroughs were she remembers bits#and hers was limited to mostly her preschool years#but Peter blocks out like 8 or 9 full years of his life and never gets the tiniest hint of remembering that#it's GONE

I kinda wonder what it is about ultrakill that uh (how do I say this without being an asshole) that attracts so many systems (?)
I like statistics so I wanna like, study what it is about certain games or series that seems to collect folks like that. Is it how the fandom treats a piece of media? Is it the demographic? I donno!
Like if we all just decided to treat doom 2016 the same way we treat ultrakill would introjects n stuff start popping up over there too? (I picked doom cause it's a bloody shoot em up with religious undertones and insano angst potential, but feel free to insert any other game here too) I'm just genuinely curious about it all

#ultrakill confessions#ultrakill#I think it entirely depends on the audience something markets itself towards#Ultrakill markets itself towards queer people which have a lot of overlap with neurodivergence (including mental illnesses like OSDD/DID)#Autistic and ADHD hyperfixations can lead to newly formed alters in a system pulling from media (since dissociation is a coping mechanism-#-and too much dissociation in early developmental stages leads to dissociative disorders both with and without alters -#- and hyperfixations usually end up being sources of comfort if someone is currently dealing with stressful occurrences)#I'm not entirely a professional but I love psychology (it's one of my special interests) so I may as well ramble a little bit here :3#Classic games (including DOOM afaik) have historically marketed themselves towards a cishet masculine male™ audience#The stuff I've seen of classic game marketing is very “cool guy”-esque and not really “traumatized gay”#I've noticed a lot of Rain World fans end up being fictionkin or systems though (and that also has religious themes but more in a Buddhist-#-than Christian way)#But maybe there's a pattern there? At this point I'm just rambling lol sorry if I'm a little incohesive

it’s not a coincidence that season four, the season where debbie hits puberty, is the season where the fandom starts to gang up on her.
#even in season three#she starts to hit puberty and is no longer a cute little girl so she’s now ruined#in season four she didn’t even do anything bad she just had a little more attitude#which makes sense considering how in every episode of season three she endured a traumatic event#and in season four frank’s dying- fiona’s in prison cus liam did coke- lip’s at college- and ian’s missing#of course she’s upset she has a lot going on#she used to be the optimist- sure- but frank destroyed that along with her project#and that’s really the only part of her personality that drastically changed#so if that’s the thing you don’t like your hate should be directed at frank and not at her#i’m sorry she snapped at fiona a few times and was a bit cringey#but she was also literally thirteen#shameless#debbie gallagher

really need the da devs to stop dropping "lore" on social media when it should have been in the game because if there is nothing in the game to point to that lore its not good representation
#jowling kowling rowling maybe has me traumatized a little bit#but when i said i didn't want the end of the story hidden in a dlc#i didn't think i'd also have to specify info revealed in AMAs about the characters so bioware can get representation points#ANYWAYYYY I do love veilguard I do#but don't fucking h*rry potter this I sWEAR TO GOD#bioware critical#dragon age critical#i am critical with love#dragon age

A wandering ghost
#I usually draw Ryota from despair arc because he looks (and is) a little less traumatized#But I made a sketch to this thing at 3-4 am because I couldn’t sleep#also that night I rewatched a bit of the end of Evangelion and 2nd episode of Lain#so I wasn’t really thinking completely straight#Idk why but I think that Ryota does look like a ghost in the future arc#poor little autistic guy#danganronpa#dr3#ryota mitarai#my posts#I’ll try to draw more happy fanarts later

honestly think neil and katelyn would become such good friends like. in my heart katelyn is so smart and so down to plot and i do really think she respects andrew as a person even though he scares her on occasion so neil would end up getting along w her so well. i think they’d have a very cunty co conspirator friendship.
i also do think that katelyn struggles to forgive andrew for literally threatening her life for no reason in the same way neil struggles to forgive aaron for literally implying he’s a rapist for no reason and i don’t think either is above criticizing their partners so i think it’d be very beneficial for both of them to have conversations like “i can’t believe your boyfriend literally threatened to kill me.” “oh yeah he’s fr lowkey sexist. he’s just emo though don’t worry about it.”
also the katelyn and neil r secretly twins agenda is basically canon and in my heart they r both brown but for different reasons (neil is a quarter pakistani in my mind and also just tan and katelyn is half mexican to me) and i think they’d both find it rly silly that people say they look alike. it’s like delusional girls hyping each other up but instead of about guys liking them it’s about not looking alike.
also their friendship would give the twins aneurysms and after all of the mindless andrew minyard has never done anything wrong ever in his life truthers ive seen on this website lowk need him to suffer a little bit. need aaron to suffer because he’s unironically a blond man.
kateneil bestfriendisms are a must i fear
#katelyn mackenzie you can do no wrong#guys can you tell i’m writing this at 12 am#im gonna be honest. i also think they share a best friend#i think on his guitar learning journey (as we’ve previously established neil plays the guitar) neil befriends a very traumatized lesbian#idk the foxes r always neil’s no 1s and his family and he’s not the most sociable person but#i do think people are very naturally drawn to him and through that he finds some pretty solid people to befriend other than the foxes#anyways. neil’s guitar journey bff i think is also incidentally katelyn’s occasional theater bff#in my heart katelyn does a little bit of theater. as a treat#and otherwise i think neil and katelyn share a lot of traits and values katelyn’s just a lot more bubbly and amicable about it#so i think they’d end up getting along crazy well#all for the game#aftg#neil josten#katelyn mackenzie#andrew minyard#aaron minyard

Luke: “But I don’t care where our parents may be as long as you are here with me”
Also Luke: *betrays everyone he knows, gets thousands of demigods killed*
👏🏻
Like sir excuse me
Preaches about the importance of family but then abandons his own, just like they abandoned him
-> Cue:
“Family, Luke. You promised.”

Is FF7 last installment of the remake trilogy going to be called Redemption?
I, for one, would love for it to be Sephiroth's hint for redemption. I also know half of the fandom is against this idea, but I don't care.
Sephiroth deserved better.
#ff7#final fantasy#Sephiroth#ever crisis lore for baby Sephiroth destroyed me#I want justice for him#I also want Cloud to be happy so I'm a little bit conflicter because you know seph traumatized him#but that was seph (jenova) there right? 😬

Does the Hidden City have any therapists Dontron could seek in the future? Because God love em, these kids are trying but they are. *Kids*. And a horrifically traumatized & depressed rat dad
unfortunately they're not registered as hidden city citizens, probably dont have the money for it (it's not like donnie's. uh. capable of doing much right now), and have a history of being arrested and conspiring with criminals (draxum). although ive always kind of imagined draxum would receive a full pardon after the s2 finale and this would eventually be rectified, so there's a possibility! if they ever did it'd probably be around post-movie times. it'd be a whole process but i could definitely see them considering it.
#ask#canary continuity#im sure me being poor doesnt reflect in my writing at all#judging by big mama they definitely are doing some capitalisms down there so i have commentary on it#id imagine being a mutant is difficult when youre not set in the hidden city and are ousted by humans#its a real nasty middle ground. and im sure there's some prejudice from yokai#also mind you therapy is.... a process. and not always helpful#ive had a really traumatic experience with a therapist#its hard to say how effective it would be. its very unprecedented as a situation#and there'd be cycling through therapists too... idk#a lot of stories portray that as a natural conclusion and the best possible one#and that's fine!! but i dont really think its. the angle i wanna go for#especially considering the fact that the hamatos have like soooo many allegories under their belt and POOR is one of them#i mean they are. they are poor#id want to capture that experience as best i can#especially as someone who's gone through it#also its fun to watch them fester in their problems a little bit..... make each other a little worse.... its more narratively interesting

do you guys ever see this phenomenon in fandoms where they play such strong Trauma Olympics that there's this 'agreed' fanon with specific characters where they aren't traumatized or aren't 'as' traumatized as other characters and then you look at the character in question and they are/should be traumatized as fuck in all actuality? and it's entirely because the traumatizing event or backstory is 'subtle' (usually not really, just less 'dramatic' than other characters). I see it all the time and it drives me nuts. Like how are you going to look at a character with an abusive father, dead mom, and is a soldier and go 'he's not traumatized' or his backstory isn't 'bad' like GIRL
#that last part is abt kyojuro rengoku btw#that man is very much traumatized just not by a snake cult like obanai or someone#no he just grew up with an abusive father who belittled him for the majority of his developmental years#and neglected him and his little brother#who he kind of raised#and also was born into a family of soldiers in a war against man eating demons#and his mom died#not at all a very traumatized man#tch .#this is also like. a little. just a bit abt cole which is funny cuz one of his traumas is LITERALLY DYING#blah blah#abuse mention
