#but the house isnt real it's an illusion!

[rearranging-deck-chairs]

[ride-thedragon]

I didn't know so many people were rooting for Sara Snow to be in the show. That was a traumatic experience. She wouldn't make sense in the context of the show, or really in the books, past the maester bias, the character would have extreme consequences for the story that she just doesn't.

She isn't even confirmed to be real.

Yet I've seen more people say they want her in the show than Nettles. Are you all alright?

[the-s1lly-corner]

Hey thanks for accepting this ask. So what I wanted to ask is how the amazing digital circus crew would react to a reader who's a strong hero...that's incredibly optimistic, dense and Guilable thinking that the world acts like a cartoon/comic sometimes

TADC cast x comic hero type reader!

meant to start knocking out these last two requests earlier this morning but i had to clean up the house a bit; but im finally getting onto it! reminder that requests are currently closed and any requests sent in will not be answered and will be deleted to keep the inbox clean; so please keep your requests until i announce theyre open again! plan on taking a day or two off to rest my brain n back as well as catching up on art and my own personal fic. the requests being answered currently were sent in prior to requests closing with that said, i hope you enjoy this anon!!

CAINE:

honestly i think caine would be the same way, not exactly but i think he would some of the cluelessness in terms of how the real world works... except its mostly with the non digital real world; call it inexperience or something! lets you play hero during the IHA.. honestly you kind of fit right in with your personality, with tropes and being a stereotypical comic book hero, if not a little naïve. pretends he doesnt recognize you when you walk around in your "citizens disguise"

likes coming up with villain npcs for you to fight during adventures

POMNI:

initial confusion when she sees you just walking around with a tie plastered to your chest, asks you what its for as well as dropping your name. even more shocked that youre shocked that she knows who you are. kind of just accepts this is a thing you do and doesnt question it, especially as she settles into the digital world.. at least youre handy during IHA.. i think during my little break i might try to figure out how i wish to right pomni because i really do wish i made her stuff more... interesting

RAGATHA:

honestly i think she would make you stuff to add to your disguise. doesnt want to shatter the illusion for you so she just tries to casually give you stuff out of the kindness of her heart... which isnt... totally wrong.. honestly i dont think she would try to change you or bring up the bad disguise thing so long as its not somehow putting you in danger. in fact i think she finds your whole hero personality endearing, you guys are both optimistic and its nice to be around someone who isnt just. losing their marbles or being a dick.. plus, you arent technically wrong to view the digital world as a cartoon, i mean, look at it and look at the physics of the world and all

JAX:

oh he is going to be a menace, probably makes a joke villain persona to mess with you only for you to immediately gun for him and deal with his "evil antics",, i mean hey as long as jax doesnt put his silly little villain mask back on you wouldnt suspect a thing... maybe... i think he would roll his eyes at some of the things you say, since youre way more optimistic and out there than ragatha... probably uses your gullible..ness... as a means to trick you

KINGER:

honestly the "as a royal myself" line he dropped in the pilot makes me think that at some level he believes himself to be a real king; or maybe he was just REALLY playing into his whole theming and he knows hes just some dude but was trying to appeal to the gloink queen... what im trying to say is that i think there might actually be a solid chance he fully leans into your hero thing, and perhaps even falls for your disguise (if him constantly forgetting gangle is standing right next to him says anything about his observation skills and/or mental state)

ZOOBLE:

similar to jax but also not. finds your optimism a little too much sometimes; especially if youre very outwardly social and friendly so its not like you swoop in to do your hero duties but you also stop to talk to the 'civilians' of the circus.. though unlike jax they wouldnt try to trick you, nor do i think they would exactly be mean to you. a little irritable by your energy and attitude, maybe, but i think zooble gets irritated by almost everyone in the circus.. reluctantly plays along with your disguise

GANGLE:

i think she would be into it, probably draws you in your non-disguise outfit. you get fanart, yay! probably similar to pomni in the whole, just accepts how you are both as a person and with your antics, but i think she just accepts everything everyone else does! not much to say, shes a fan of it and if you stand up for her when jax is mean thats just an added bonus for her

[stuck-in-the-ghost-zone]

absolutely unrelated to the dreadful little polycule BUT. hey mark was there at deadwood right. like in canon. what do u think post-muse ashe and mark even Look like. i feel like. there's no way they could be normal after that. not that they can in canon but even Less after what ashe knows mark's seen him do. also GOD how does. tidalwave mark coming over to deadwood mark dragging tide with him happen..... one second im still thinking about the dreadful little polycule u know ill always talk ur ear off Abt them!!!

this ask has been cooking in my inbox for WEEKS because thinking about post-muse mark and ashe makes me so fucking sick dude. god. okay. fucking huge ramble about them under the cut

not going to answer the tidalwave thing yet because we NEED 2 discuss what happens to tide instead of depowering him bc that would fucking kill him and we CANNOT kill our dad. i know we mentioned him taking an armsmaster style retirement/thinly veiled house arrest but. thats a conversation for later hehe

ANYWAY. FUCK . POST-MUSE ASHE MY POOR LITTLE BOY. god. this is all going to be hypotheticals and questions honestly. but like. god. thinking abt the scene like. IMMEDIATELY after the trickster lets him go. the trickster lets go of him and ashe just fucking slumps to the ground like a (pun very much intended) puppet with his strings cut. hes not unconscious, hes awake, but the last time he was free and aware he had to watch himself rip william in half! lol! i think that all hits him at once and he just like. falls to his fucking knees!!! and like. mark pov. thats his son his son is free hes had to watch all of this in shock and horror but now ashe is free after so fucking long and all he wants to do is rush forward and hug him (pick him up, bundle him in his arms like he did when ashe first triggered, carry him in the car as they speed out of the quarantine zone hoping nobody is following them-) and i think he gets as far as. falling to his knees next to ashe, but as soon as his hand makes contact i think ashe flinches so hard its almost like the touch hurt him. hes just. staring at his dad with these huge eyes and shallow breaths and hes shaking and crying and its a fucking MESS and mark doesnt know what to DO and the wards are standing in a loose semicircle behind him and ashe does NOT like all of these eyes on him. he knows these are people who love him but he doesnt know ... what the fuck theyre going to think of him. after. all of that.

i think it would be fun (/evil) if for..... a little while after he's free ashe is just CONSTANTLY waiting for the other shoe to drop. he knows trickster has mal now, he believes that was real, and mal can make illusions. so . whats to say this isnt just all. fake. one of these days hes going to wake up covered in blood and gore and new piercings stinging and aching and . ashe winters will just be the empty aftermath of muse again. i cannot IMAGINE a world in which mark would let him out of his sight again... maybe not in the same completely suffocating way he did when ashe was a kid but like. he definitely insists on ashe living with him again. just. theres a sort of nervous hesitance that wasnt there before. mark is so much more Present now that he doesnt have to work for overlord anymore. he's at home. he makes breakfast and dinner and his footsteps are still loud and heavy but theyre cautious and the way he knocks on ashes door is a lot more gentle than it used to be . i just think theyre both like... scared of each other. ashe scared to relax because he thinks that everything could be fake and he doesnt know what anyone really thinks of him anymore (he is so full of shame and guilt over what he did as muse- i dont think anyone would directly Tell Him but i think . he would probably look up the news, just to *know*). and mark is scared because he doesnt know what to do. he doesnt want to make anything worse. he lets the wards and tide visit whenever they want (because he trusts them) because familiar faces and voices might help ashe feel normal again, but hes still. just. so full of paranoia that something else could go wrong.. and all he wants to do is just. put ashe in a vault or something that could keep him safe from anything that could ever hurt him again. but also he knows thats exactly what the trickster was doing to him (and what mark did to him his entire childhood) so he doesnt.

this is . entirely self indulgent and maybe ooc a little bit but i really really REALLY want the first step of them like... healing. is for mark to be doing something maybe in the kitchen or the living room and ashe slowly trudges into the room feet dragging, hair tangled and hanging in his face OBVIOUSLY not touched at all, nervous energy twitchy at everything like he has been for weeks, but instead of sitting himself in the corner or with his back against a wall he just... comes up next to mark and bumps his forehead into his back/arm/whatever. and he doesnt say anything and mark freezes up bc he doesnt want to make any sudden moves and scare him but then after like. a couple long seconds of stillness and silence ashe hugs him. mark asks (voice really quiet) if hes okay, and ashes shakes his head (which is more just like. sideways rocking his forehead without breaking contact) and mark asks if he can hug him back (nod this time) and they just kind of. sink to the floor and theyre crying and hugging and they dont talk about it later but i think thats when it clicks in ashes brain like. huh okay maybe this is real.

[lastwave]

my masky agenda. gets out my cork board and red string. please keep in miiiind this is going with the reading that tim and masky are a system

so. imagine this. you have bad memory. you have bad memory and you're not like other children and you see things that people tell you aren't there. you live with your mom and your mom is not kind. you have an imaginary friend. he is nice to you and he gets you. he talks for you when you cant. you talk to him in your head. there is a thing outside and it is not like the other things you see and it makes you sick. your mother just looks sadder when you try to tell her. the doctors don't say they don't believe you, but you can see it on their face.

and then you leave home for a while. you're at a psych ward and they leave you and your friend locked in a room alone longer than any child should be because they don't know how to help you. theyre upset because you stopped being able to talk a week ago and you don't remember why. you don't know when it clicks but you realize they have never called you your name. these hands are not your own. *you* are the imaginary friend here, not the other one. what are you, really? is it your fault he's here? he has friends, but do you?

the thing starts showing up in your room. making you both worse. the other can't handle it so you have to. you have to. ...sometimes it shows you the outside world. bloody and horrible and wooded but it isnt these stupid white walls it isnt these people who make no effort for you or your friend. your brother?

you go home again. you're not sure why. this process repeats itself time and time again. perhaps the thing can be deciphered? it isn't you, and it isn't your brother, you know that much. the meds make it easier to withstand. but not in the way it makes hallucinations easier. when did you learn the other things were hallucinations, again?

you come to the conclusion that it has the power to end this cycle. it wants something in exchange. there's no way to know what. a faustian wheel of fortune. you don't remember how the ward burned down, really. you barely remember the emancipation process, either.

and then things are okay for a while. they aren't great, but you and your brother are safe from your mom. doctors. the thing in the woods. your brother makes friends and you watch. sometimes you interact with them. always under the pretense that you are your brother, though. you can't break the illusion that this is one person.

you lose some time. more than usual. a few years, maybe? your brother's grown sideburns, gotten a house. your brother's friend is sick. sick like you were. the other is angry like a mad dog, you're not sure why.

you hang out with the sick friend. after a certain point he's mad at your brother, you by extension. he talks to the thing. a lot. maybe as much as you used to. maybe more. he's getting worse and you don't know how to help him and its started paying attention to you again too. your brother is alone again. he won't tell you why. his friend is not his friend anymore but yours. he doesn't feel like a friend but have you had a normal friend before?

he shows you a video of someone trying to dig through the mad dog's descent. he's also infected with it. so is the person digging. your friend tells him he's gonna mess with the person by leading them to his old house.

your friend is going to infect more people. your friend has reinfected you.

you hang out at the old house waiting for the person. you'll scare them off. people won't mess with something after there's a bodily threat towards them, right? you've always been a fighter. you think a doctor hit you. or was it your mom? you brother got into a lot of fights.

it doesn't scare them off. you keep trying to scare them, it keeps not working.

maybe your friend is right about their approach, you know? god is real and it can hear you screaming. can you scream loud enough?

[fipindustries]

ok, the episode where we meet the head coven of illusion magic and gus traps everyone at school inside a giant illusion was probably one of my favourites in the show. so many things i wanted to happen actually happened in this episode. we get to see amity still having trouble snapping out of her mentality of looking down on people before she became friends with the team, we get to meet the head coven of the illusion magic (as a quick aside, i always loved that anime trope where you got the big bad final boss but then his underlings are each their own larger than life personality,it reminds me of the sins in full metal alchemist).

we also get to further hunter's arc which, in an era where everyone wants to do their own damn zuko redemption arc, this is a pretty good entry in the canon, right next to peridot and shadow weaver. and just generally the conceit of being trapped in illusions and never being able to tell what is real and what isnt is a personal favourite trope of mine. i loved specially the scene where hunter realizes that the willow they meet in the hallways was fake. i actually genuenly fell for it. i spent two seasons calling every twist and this was one that actually took me by surprise and was clever and well executed. AND it got to show hunter being genuenly smart and observant *and it makes total sense that he would be able to tell that this wasnt willow*

it was just brilliant on every level, top notch episode.

honestly this entire second half of season 2 has been on fire, this is the owl house everyone was talking about. i am 100% in, im bought in. this show has me now

[scotch-superglue]

i saw scott's email to dan from that lawsuit and omg? idk i feel like an illusion or something has been shattered. i never defended her for the very questionable things she's done (m*tty, jets, etc) but in my head i've always kinda let her off for it. but yiikkees. i had no clue she was that fucking rich?? her dad sold a house for 2.5 MILLION before 2008. she definitely works hard af but she is so insanely privileged with her dad's connections and money wow.

i was disappointed seeing the new ttpd version with the one extra song. her releasing versions where 90% of the content is the same is shitty as hell. and soo unnecessary. people should be able buy a single vinyl with all the songs. and the fake limited time sales. she's gonna make it available again in a few months, but she wants people to panic buy it. asshole move imo.

the movie was even worseee omg. the tickets itself were way too high. it was 130dirhams in dubai, which is roughly 35 dollars???? WHICH IS INSANE FOR A SINGLE TICKET. just cuz it's her lucky number doesnt make it okay to charge such a high fee. it was just standard that too, not even imax or anything. tickets are generally like 30-60dhs (8-13$). made me feel insane for going with my sister.

also having shows in t*l av*v?? if she wasnt gonna speak up abt palestine, least she could do is not have a showing there. her website said that the shows are cancelled but in local theatres, it was showing.

then putting it for rent for $20, just to release on streaming a couple months later. literally insane. just trying to milk money. RENT for 20$??? what the actual fuck. she's already a billionaire, i dont understand why she does things like this.

actually i feel like i do now. after reading her dad's email, her family dynamic and her behaviour is making a lot more sense. her dad constantly talked about how much money he puts in and how he gets nothing in return etc etc. money money money. i think her greed(?) makes so much sense to me now.

the jets i understood not publishing it in real time, can be dangerous for her ig. and feels stalkerish. but threatening with a lawsuit is kinda like what? the guy seems like a piece of shit but he didn't do anything illegal. and apparently the list that swifties have been using to prove that she isnt in the top 30 isnt even accurate. she was in fact the highest polluter. extremely disappointing.

tbh i had all these thoughts in the back of my head, but i saw her as a fundamentally good person so i pushed it away a little. but like now idk. it just doesnt make sense to think that. i've been a fan for more than 12 years at this point ig, and it makes me kinda sad. i've been reading the posts on r/swiftlyneutral and like yeah?? the things they say are true?? i used to vehemently deny a lot of accusations, but yeah she is performative, and doesnt talk abt issues unless it relates to her.

i dont know what the point of this post was, feels awkward to talk abt to my irl friends so yes just posting it here

bye

[dailyoyo]

thabk yoi a lot dailyoyo your brains are very compelling to me it kind of makes me want to study you like ants . i quote you all the time like i tell my friends " i stole this sentiment / headcanon from a deranged yoyo tumblr account " . you are aspirational really Truly we need more dailyoyos in the world i cant stop thinking about lawyer yoyo now .... also i beg for more dissecting of yoyo and mew dynamics if ur Into That . theuve always been really interesting to me but honestly like 4 pieces of canonexist in jsr ever so

VERY DELIGHTFUL ASK TO GET. i love to hear that i have had a net impact in making people get weirder. its so important to me. making the jsr fandom worse one post at a time <3

a lot of the way i post in here is inspired by both my friends but also some of the crazy bitches (affectionate) ive seen around over in the dragon ball z fandom in particular, but really i think ANYONE in the world no matter the fandom has the god-given right to tear characters apart with their teeth and make them fail as fuck and really really really sick in the head in ways they were probably not intended to be read as in canon. Everypony out there get eviler!!!!!!!!!!!! Now.

IM GLAD YOU LIKE LAWYER YOYO I THINK ABOUT HIM A LOT TOO. hes fascinating to me in that like hes technically not a Bad Ending (MOST of that au technically isnt!) and yet objectively he is a worse outcome because in regular(paradox) canon theres an avenue for yoyo to heal and become less bastardous. because like he has genuine friends and positive interactions and reasons to Want to be more than a self serving shithead. and also hes 16 of course hes an asshole hes 16.

but with lawyer yoyo its like. Its too late. He grew up and he stayed like that and he does not care to change and he has no impetus to change. hes definitely living a safer and more comfortable life and he has much higher self-esteem but he is Staying dead inside. Like ok regular yoyo and lawyer yoyo are both mentally at the bottom of basically the same exact well but lawyer yoyo was like "fuck it" and built a house down there. do you get me

Oh fuck this post is getting so long and i havent even talked about mew and yoyo yet.

okay so liek. beat was yoyo's first proper Friend in the ggs (as opposed to "just tolerating him being around"). because beat kind of totally fell for yoyo's whole harmless schtick lmao. but mew was the first Real Friend in that she picked up on how much of a fake fuck yoyo was and decided to hang out with him anyway.

which. ADMITTEDLY. this was originally BECAUSE she was fascinated by yoyo being so insincere (for a while he was also really playing up the "ohoho i'm TOOOTALLY not a double agent" thing for shits and giggles even though he literally wasnt.). and as previously mentioned yoyo had a crush on her which is why he didnt realize mew could see right through him. honestly for a while he kind of thought he had totally had her under his thumb but the whole time mew was like "Awww hehe he thinks im only hanging out with him because of his manipulations, thats so cute ^_^" (<- DERANGED)

and in a way while they were already friends their friendship didnt Truly start until after yoyo confessed his love and was rejected. because like the whole thing was kind of a wakeup call for yoyo - mew had noticed his feelings all along and was waiting for him to say something Just to reject him, and like among normal people that would probably be a lot more hurtful but in that circumstance it was like... she'd outplayed him. easily. and he didn't even notice, but she's still here anyway. and she still wants to hang out with him even though she can tell the kind of person he is.

because the thing is like. mew may play up her innocence and naivety but she IS genuinely kind at heart. a lot of her strange desire to examine nasty people under a microscope is because of her desire to see the humanity in everyone, to understand Why people do the things they do. and she's not under any illusions that she can """Fix Him""", god knows she's not sure she can even "fix" herself, but she saw yoyo for what he was and could respect the survival mechanisms at play for what they were. (this is also why mew was so immediately like "idk Yoyo doesn't seem like that kind of person..." when the nt-3000 thing happened because. like. she Understood his modus operandi and that simply Wasn't It.)

and like when youre the kind of person who thinks that as soon as someone sees under your mask that they'll want you dead in a ditch, knowing someone who recognizes your mask and is just like "oh cool, i got one too" is kind of world-shaking. paradoxically them recognizing each others' insincerity makes them be a lot more sincere with each other.

Oh fuck this post long as hell. yoy

[epicqtefail]

Hi! i thought compiling these would be sensible but oof, i'm so sorry for how much i ramble. Thank you for indulging me, ily

12. Easiest part of body to draw

unexciting but probably the mouth, the mouth can be as simple or as detailed as you want (bonus if it’s a detailed mouth on a simple face or vice versa) and there’s not much that can go wrong with it, i rarely have trouble with the mouth where i do with everything else.

Also i’ve found it’s a great cheat for helping capture a character’s facial structure like Connor’s slight overbite and lips emoji mouth

19. Favorite inanimate objects to draw (food, nature, etc.)

Uwhwghjh anything that isnt a person is very out of my comfort zone. there are so many WIPs I’ve been putting off because I have to draw a car or a desk or crockery or the exterior of a house. i guess any phallic shaped inanimate object is fun to draw, and you can make anything you want phallic shaped thats the beauty of art.. whatsit Carl says? something about taking reality and improving on it.

4. Fav character/subject that's a bitch to draw

CoNNORRRR (of course) with his optical illusion soft/sharp face and shallow nasolabial folds (is that a real term of just a Souls character creator thing?) that i would usually rely on for exaggerated facial expressions... Hank too but i have no excuse i should have learned to draw beards by now.

Also drawing characters face-on is a huge ball ache but it’s the eeriest/goofiest angle

10. Favorite piece of clothing to draw

Connor's tie for sure! and Hank’s big solid tshirt and knee-length boxers (Ouh là là)! Anything that means you can start drawing the arm at the elbow and the leg at the knee!

Connor’s shirt is the worst to draw because it moulds completely to his frame, it reminds me of those plastic baby toys with the soft cushion abdomen. But the image of him just,, folding backwards when Hank hugs him during the post-credits scene is enough to make me enjoy drawing it.

20. Something everyone else finds hard to draw but you enjoy

Not sure if this is something people find hard and more-so just a pain in the ass to draw but i really enjoy drawing heads from this angle:

30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated

a benefit of being insecure is nothing is underrated and youre always pleasantly surprised! (insert You Can't if You Don't meme). but I don't want to sound sickeningly modest so I guess i could say it's been so long since i drew this that my brain will let me think it's funny again. not so much the comic itself but just the concept of connor having too-specific tandem bike fantasies cracks me up more than it probably does most people. not underrated but i dont think anyone would agree it's one of the best things my brain has sharted out.

Thank you for asking!

oh btw you can never go back and even if you could you wont be that person again XD

thoughts on intj x intp?

ps. your blog is awesome 👀💕

The best thing would be how they can both be themselves- there's no need for fakeness here, nothing that's not real. nights at home together in sweatpants can be the best nights- both side by side in bed, reading, and you love them even more

intp would bring the softness a lot, and when they're tired its unbounded. they always reach out, hand encapsulated in the long sleeve of an oversized hoodie, and intj can't ever help but take it, melting at the warmth of sleepy intp

But, let's get it straight- that the burning powers of both intj and intp would be epic? they'd be so god damn in love and still the insults would flow so easy- (intj: this is so stupid intp: *immediately, without missing a beat* you're so stupid) heck, it'd be better after they started dating, each saying they have terrible taste in people and always end up dating idiots

This ease is present in conversation. Dialogue flits back and forth at seemingly unintelligible speeds, they catch the other's thought and throw another one back so quick that if you blink you miss- travelling at the speed of light rather than sound. it's the Ne meeting Ni- and nothing has ever been quite as satisfying

intp's Ne let's intj expand. they bring new ideas from the furtherst reaches of the universe, and it seems to expand intj's world. impromptu movie nights, car rides- crazy theoretical ideas about life itself; the expansion is limitless

intj brings intp back in. intj takes ideas and dives into it, Ni diving endlessly into the depths. that focus, that mind like the sharpest of blades- intp sees it so clearly sometimes and is entranced- and thinks the world must be intj's oyster with such a mind

their thinking styles fit together perfectly- it feels like they could take on the world. there could never be a better duo than intp and intj.... if they would actually finally just get out of their house and commit to that grand theft they have a l l planned o u t

-

intj edits:

- also lets just appreciate how these guy would totally be that nerdy power duo who would end up going down a wikipedia rabbithole at 3am and would trying to make a homemade moltov cocktail or smth at 6am, cause for intp it isnt a question of why its a question of why not (and intj totally loves them for that) *hwk has been shoved aside and accidentally set on fire *

- intp sending cursed memes on the group chat at cursed hours and intj j being like why do i still tolerate you

- watching anime and playing video games all day cause time is an illusion , the outside world requires to much socialising , and id rather spend all day with you

-intj looking up to see intp staring and them w a lil crazy grin and intj j sighs and thinks 'here we go again' but can help smiling a lil cause intp j had an iDeA which intj will find themselves roped into (no regrets)

- being that dysfunctional functional couple who can never complete each other sentences but can somehow understand each other without acc having to say a word

intj: we always finish each others

intp: sandwiches

intj: *sighing* you're hungry arent you

intp: i may or may not have forgotten to eat anything since yesterday

(TY BTW <3 lowkey unsure what your type is but gonna guess intp out of the two because intj is e v e n more unlikely to put hearts)

Honestly, as you no doubt can tell, this ask took a little thought but then I realised- wait! there are so goddamn many intpxintj couples all around, esp on tumblr, there's gotta be some really damn good stuff... and there is ><

beginning to also draw slight parallels to the way I (infj) love my infps- the way it all just feels so perfectly fitting and great, although more Feelings than intj/intp)

here's a little reddit link that i've looked thorugh a little that's absolute intp x intj gold https://www.reddit.com/r/intj/comments/k8ow9s/intj_intp_relationship/

[stfuhair]

ok duffers hear me out:

Everyone is having a good time at Hoppers cabin, El and Mike are in her room, Dustin is on the phone with Lucas just to check up on Max. Nancy, Jonathan, Steve, Robin, Argyle are outside just waiting the dinner that Hopper and Murray are prepparing while Joyce are just watching them.

Will feels vecna so strong but he thinks that is just because now the gate to the Upside Down is open but is not. Without noticing Will just get "hypnotised" again, just like the arcade, just like the Halloween, he is again.

Argyle: Yo... What. Is. That.

Robin: What? Wh-

Will is face to face with Vecna. Everyone is trying to call him but is no use because he isnt listening. Vecna is already in his mind but this time is different and Nancy notice, Vecna never kills Will, he just wants him on his side. Will is partially awake and just like everytime Vecna is using his insecurities and traumas against him.

Vecna: Will, poor Will...

Will: Who are you.

Vecna: Im Henry. (he is Henry form).

Will: You're Vecna arent you? – He is shaking.

Vecna: Why dont you come with me Will?

Will remains silent. The vast field makes him feel smal...

Vecna: Dont you see? Nobody cares Will... NOBODY cares for you, just like they didnt to me, we're the same.

Will looks behind him and its just like the way he left, everyones laughing and playing and smiling...

From afar Jonathan screams his brother name when he turns, the problem is that Will dont see them. Everyone is crying and scream the loudest they can but is no use, they're inside Wills mind.

Vecna: Let me show you.

"Henry" scorts him to inside the house again and shows him a illusion, where everyone is happy and calm. Everything shocks everyone, their throats are about to explode but they dont give up.

Vecna: Look at your mom, your dear mom, is no doubt she loves you but will her be with you forever? I dont think Will... Nobody stays with us forever beside ourselves. Your friends, look what you made, if it wasnt for you Maxine wouldnt be like she is right now, dont you see?

Will: B-but...

Vecna: DONT YOU SEE?... Your dear brother, look at him... LOOK AT HIM! He is so calm, so in love, ah the love, is quite a thin right?

Vecna takes him for the end of their little tour, standing right infront of El's door.

Will looks defeated.

Vecna: Look at your little love.

When he opens the door he sees Mike and El cuddling and reading some Wonder Woman comics. Everyones look shocked, how could he love his own sister? The silence is as loud as the tears that comes out of their faces...

Vecna: Michael Wheeler. See?

Everyone is in pure shock. Mike cant even blink.

Vecna: See what is really love?

El is angry, angry because she cant use her powers and because that wasnt true, Mike and her were about to break up in that room, ending a cold war. But it was Wills mind afterall...

Vecna: He will never love you Will, and you know why? Because he is not supposed to. He doesnt need you anymore, even if YOU need him it doesnt matter does it? So come with me Will, let me end your suffering...

Let me end your suffering

Let me end your suffering...

Will: No..

Vecna: What?

Will: I SAID NO!

Vecna: NO?

All of sudden Will sees Lonnie screaming at him.

Lonnie (Vecna): NO? WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO? YOU STUPID LITTLE F@GG*T ??! – He slaps Wills face. Joyce screams.

Will is crawling backwards but is no use.

Vecna transforms again.

Middle school bullies: What do you mean no you freak? Huh? SAY IT YOU LITTLE FREAK!

Vecna transforms again.

Mike: Stop fighting Will.

The Real Mike, tries to jump at them but it still no use.

For the first time Will really look broken.

Mike (vecna): I will never love you.

Will is crying in the floor, head hung low, he gave up...

Vecna transforms again.

Vecna: Calm down, im here... Im here. (He hugs Will

Joyce: DONT TOUCH HIM, PLEASE DONT TOUCH HIM, DONT TOUCH MY BOY. – Even tho is useless she continues to scream.

Will finally take Henrys hands, they're walking to the door, Wills eyes wander through the house that and finally meets eleven eyes.

Before henry can notice wills close his eyes and stop.

Jonathan: What? What is that?

Eleven: Memories... Good memories..

All of sudden they're on their home in california, Will is running from Eleven and Jonathan whos trying to hit a pillow on him and right after them there is Joyce... Everyone is happy and laughing.

Vecna: What is this... WHAT IS THIS...

Will close his eyes again. Another memorie.

Hes with Lucas, Dustin, and Max, at the school, Max is teaching Dustin how to do trick...

Vecna: WILL COME WITH ME NOW.

Close his eyes. Another memorie.

Hopper: And then you do this and boom! Your knife is all sharp again got it?

Will: Yeah!

Hopper: You good kid.

Eleven is watching it using all she has to break in his mind but vecna is still not letting her.

Eleven: Cmon will, please (she whispers)

He closes his eyes, last memorie.

They see two kids running in circles. Two little boys on a familiar basement.

Mike: Crazy together.

Will: Crazy together.

Eleven: YES!

Finally Eleven can enter in Wills mind.

Vecna: Look whos here...

Eleven: Stay back.

and idk i cant think anymore but yeah.

Reid and Garcia haven't had that "dad is a person? moment" yet and it shows. They know he was hurt but its a flesh wound and they don't really get that he is messed up in the mind. Where as Derek, who is always quicker to challenge Hotch, is questioning his psych eval. I love it. Derek was also the one who drove Hotch back to DC after the car bomb so he definitely had that moment already. If it wasn't before that road trip it was during.

honestlyyyyy i really love their relationships with him. they love each other—they all do—but loving isnt the same as understanding (but it does beg the question: do they love him for who he is or for who they think he is). they have this blind spot when it comes to certain aspects of hotch’s life, certain aspects of his humanity. he’s an unyielding force in their minds, a pillar of strength. it doesnt occur to them that anything could jeopardize that.. i think they all reach that revelation in their own time—if they do at all— but foyet’s attack is that reality check.

when spencer dreams of foyet who says “hotch was never the same… so none of you were ever the same…” or whatever he fucking says.. it was so real. i dont think hotch changed that much actually akhdksh which is kinda ridiculous but he’s just been through so much already?? but he didnt really change, he just doubled down on certain traits, like his protectiveness. what really changed was the way the rest of them viewed him. i dont think anyone really bothered to think of him as vulnerable. he’s just such a stable presence in their lives that they took it for granted. after foyet’s attack, that illusion shattered.

this is it for reid and garcia!! we’re seeing their assumptions challenged in real time!! they have a moment where they have to admit their leader isnt as infallible as they once thought. they’ve relied on his enduring presence for their own emotional balance.. even if they dont go to him directly for that kind of help, just knowing that he’s still here and there’s still work to be done is enough to lead on when they have nothing else. (and we do see hotch having his moments with spencer and penelope, like elephants memory and house on fire.) they just… cant imagine that going away. they havent thought of him as being so… human. but even after foyet, even if they’re still aware of it in the back of their minds, they sorta just go back to normal?? garcia calls him “sir” still and reid sometimes forgets that hotch has had similar experiences to him. they go back to how they were before, only reminded of his wholeness during emotional moments (like hit and run or the replicator)

morgan i think hit this moment a little sooner tho. form him i think it was when he heard his screams after the explosion in new york. sure he wasnt hurt too badly—not visibly anyway. but he was afraid and desperate: two things morgan hadnt ever associated with hotch before. like… he’s been defensive of hotch in the past, but still knows that hotch has been perfectly capable of handling himself. this is the first time that hes really had to feel protective of hotch.. viewed hotch as someone with weaknesses, someone who may not be able to carry his burdens on his own. i just… dont think he has the best way of showing it. because it does kinda fuck with the hierarchy of the bau dynamic and he’s not sure how to navigate through that boundary. its not as easy as protecting reid or penelope. morgan just kinda settles into challenging hotch and overanalyzing every decision. he’s just trying to make sure he’s mentally sound and ready for what they deal with every day, but its difficult to reflect that with an authority figure. he’s still gentle—of course he’s gentle—but his concern manifests in a different way than he does with the others. theres that barrier in his mind that he cant quite get past.

jj.. im not sure jj ever reaches a point of understanding with hotch. and i think thats because she thinks she already sees all of him? and he is more openly emotional with her than he may be with the others, so she feels like she never had that illusion to begin with. she’s a teacher’s pet: she thinks bc the teacher confides in her about some things that she knows everything about him. its that extra insight that makes her even more blind to the rest, to the parts he’s not sharing. but she thinks she knows it all and her perception of him never really changes.

emily meanwhile never had that illusion to begin with. they had such an antagonistic beginning that she was already able to see his flaws and imperfections. over time she grew to respect him. all of him—even the bad parts. which is why i think its fitting that she’s the one who found him. everyone’s reeling from the earthshattering revelation that their leader could get taken down, but emily’s instead dealing with nearly losing a friend. and i think that makes it easier for her to be around than the others.. he doesnt feel like a disappointment, he doesnt feel pitied, and he can just exist without worrying about how they’re never gonna look at him the same. he breathe a little easier, he can be himself without needing to hold the facade up as high. he can let his guard down

idk they just all get confronted with this challenge to their paradigm. they have to rethink the way they see him and continually remind themselves that he’s not the stoic stolid force he pretends to be. to a different extent they each register that he’s not untouchable. whether or not they accept it, the event shakes the up the team more than it normally would

[tomicaleto]

cannot send the symbol right now because I am on mobile but the ship asks for obikin please!

Happy holidays! A modern married Obikin living in Argentina AU, christmas edition coming right up! 

who spends hours putting up lights only to get tangled in them and storm off? I’m gonna say Obi-Wan. Their lights don’t work very well so putting them on their tree is a pain-in-the-ass job and usually Anakin is the one in charge but he was running late this one year and Obi-Wan tried his best. It didn’t work, of course, and he complained about them when ANakin arrived and put them on the tree on the first try.

who accidentally eats a whole box of christmas chocolates in one sitting? Obi-Wan again! He has the biggest sweet tooth for those kind of things. Anakin can control himself better because he likes Obi-Wan feeding him instead of eating them on his own. 

who insists on watching the cheesey hallmark christmas movies? Anakin! He is a softie and romantic and even if the storylines are cliché as fuck, he always gets hooked on them.

who insists on playing nothing but michael buble in the few days running up to christmas? Neither, Anakin doesn’t really know the guy and Obi-Wan doen’t like the holidays that much.

who gets their presents wrapped at the mall so the other cant go snooping I’m not familiar with this at all. Anakin goes to wrap the gifts to Shmi’s house and he takes both their gifts. They only try to keep the surprise for the children and Ahsoka.

who insists on making snow angels? They live in Argentina and they don’t get snow on Christmas

who put christmas outfits on all the pets? Anakin! I mentioned in another ask that their cat, R2, is difficult to get in the outfits; the dog, 3P0, is confused but tolerates them; and their baby lizard, Boga, is a good girl who looks adorable with her santa hat.

Do they go to family’s or have a quiet day in? They used to go to Shmi’s on Chirstmas Eve and spend Chirstmas day at home but after they get Ahsoka and even later on the twins, they spent both Christmas Eve and Christmas day at Shmi’s.

who insists on wearing matching ugly christmas jumpers? It’s too hot during Christmas that just thinking about it makes them sweat.

Who waits up until midnight to give the other their present? Traditionally, gifts are opened once the clock strikes midnight. So toast and then presents!

Who insists on hand-made presents only one year? Anakin likes giving Obi-Wan hand made trinkets occasionally so one year, Obi-Wan signed up to a pottery workshop in secret and surprised Anakin with a coffe cup. Anakin loves it and uses it every day during breakfast.

Who puts mistletoe on every door frame? Neither, it’s not traditional where they live

Who gets too drunk at the work christmas party and has to be picked up at 9:15pm? Anakin, driving back home is hard for Obi-Wan because Anakin loves kisses and cuddles when he’s drunk.

who gets angry and almost tells kids that santa isnt real? Neither, they already joked about the gifts they got from Santa before getting the kids so they are pretty good at keeping up the illusion.

all the musical asks with ummm quentin uwu (kittyandco)

OOHOHOHOHOO YOU SPOIL ME!!!!! >:]

a million miles away: if you could travel anywhere with your f/o, where would you go?

well!!! i think pippa would LOVE to show him her home dimension :’) i think quentin would be passively interested in a “sure kid, whatever you want” kinda way (partially because he is A Bitch, partially because even having a little purple bf isnt quite enough to really sell him on the plausibility of multiverse stuff), but as a man of science he would surely be Blown Away once he gets there and sees it for himself!!!! preddy aleon aes new york.............. yeas.........

mountain duet: how awkward were you and your f/o in the early stages of your relationship?

oh this is FUN. i think theyre awkward at different times for different reasons!!!! pippa is kind of permanently a little Off due to 1) hhhhhhh hot guy, and 2) not quiiiiite grasping this dimension’s customs and cues as well as she’d like to, and neither of those are things that would really go away!!!! sort of a permanently squigglemouth situation

quentin, on the other hand, brings this VERY goofy awkwardness in the form of his whole grift. imagine pretending to be from another dimension because theres NO WAY you can disprove that, only for a whole ass real ass alternate universe spiderman show up in the middle of your whole scheme. immediately his thing becomes a zillion times harder so he’s like. fumbling and rambling in a way that he desperately (and might i add successfully) tries to pass off as Well Gosh, Miss P’rk’r, I’m Just So Nervous Around You Because.... I Like You! so hehhehheh thats fun >:) 

suddenly seymour: how does your f/o help you cope with your past? how do you help them?

i KNOW i was drafting a fic about this very question in july 2019 but i cannot remember shit from it. oh well whatever. pippa is all too eager to comfort quentin about his fake past with his fridged family angst, for one thing. she misses her family too! and she knows that isnt quite the same, but, maybe he’d like to open up to her about it all anyway (it’s moments like these where quentin feels Actual Guilt for what he’s doing as far as she’s concerned, but like, extremely briefly. he shakes it off)

cringe moments where im like “okay. now. how would mister beck be Earnestly Kind to me?” and i have to REALLY wrack my brain to come up with anything FHDJFSHDKFDS OKAY WAIT. i think that he would be like. REALLY good at distracting pippa when she’s down??? ooooggghhh it would be really nice if he like set up an illusion specifically for her and they set up times to immerse her in it so she can Forget The Sads!!!!! wahhhh okay men can be nice ONCE

an ordinary couple: what does an ideal future with your f/o look like? do you have a house? pets? kids?

HMMM honestly i havent put much thought into a sustainable long-term dynamic with quentin!!!! and like i use my spidersona for SO many partners im not sure if any one in particular would be interested in settling down??? BUT i think way down the line if pippa is dimension hopping and happens to bump into a certain fishbowl old flame, he would certainly drop whatever he was doing to catch up!!! kind of a permanent I’d Be Down If You Asked Zone situation

what do you mean he Literally dies in the movie??? i cant read. that was still the simulation actually :)

only you: in your eyes, what makes your f/o special?

first of all jake gyllenhaal could do a movie where he just frowns at the camera for 90 minutes straight and i would still watch that shit topless every time. BUT I MEAN!!!! i just think mcu mysterio is such a perfect storm of My Taste!!!! mediocre predictable twist villain (hi, robert)? check. half-baked plan targeting a wealthy elite? check. a sprinkling of sexy misogyny for the boys? CHECK!!!!!!!!!! he does it all. plus i mean.... you make me sit through enough thanos screen time and literally every other man on earth becomes a 10

follow your heart: what have you and your f/o taught each other?

haha. *totally DOESNT fantasize about quentin taking a mentor role and helping pippa get better control of her spider powers* *is absolutely not thinking about pippa, post-mysterio evil reveal, slipping easily into something of a henchman role to coach quentin on lying abt alternate dimensions based on the truths of her real-world experience* 

[meduise]

my own hibari headcanons

[reposting because of adult terminology crimes, lol]

been meaning to write down my list of hcs for a while anyway, and now i have the occasion to get to it! among the others im gonna add what i decided to avoid putting under this post and give more details about what i already wrote there

content/trigger warnings: death, assassination, mental illness, eating disorders

the list will be under the cut! it excludes my strictly shippy hcs and i may update it over time

first things first. like my own blog title suggests, i hc hibari as a trans guy.  i’m trans myself, so this is arguably the hc of mine im the most attached to for personal comfort reasons LOL. it all started when i read a fic about trans hibari a few years ago and later on i got more and more fond of this transcanon, becoming 100% personal. i also hc that he doesnt feel dysphoric. as for his sexuality i hc him as gay

we know that hibari and fon are relatives. my idea is that they’re step-brothers (different mother), and long lost to that. NOW. i realize that with the assumption of fon’s age, them being siblings is unlikely, but it shouldn’t be impossible. their father could be old enough. he got married to a chinese woman who gave birth to fon, then divorced, then got married again to a japanese woman, kyouya’s mom. (i kinda based this on my irls situation, where because of the parents’ second marriage there is at least a good 20 years of gap between the oldest and youngest sibling)

the hibari family was part of the yakuza. to answer a question that was made to me: i agree that hibari “just liking fighting” isnt funny at all. i heavily believe that there’s a psychological reason to his behavior but im going to talk about this in another point below. i also think that hibari was probably the heir to the clan, but here in my head hibari is still too young for it, like 5-6 years old.

when hibari was a child his parents got killed in the hibari household. how could they get killed in their own house, didn’t they have enough protection? they did. but the guard was low considering who turned out to be their murderers were old, trusted allies. kyouya only survived because he managed to hide properly and long enough. he didnt witness the assassination but he did see his parents in a pool of blood after everything ended. before dying, his mom left a last message to him: be stronger than anyone else. because of the trauma, even in the present hibari avoids going back to that house as much as he can and especially he never reopens the door of the crime scene. hibari also still grows into a delinquent, but he dislikes the mafia world and wishes he didnt have to be involved with it

for a while, hibari is in fon’s mother’s custody. here is when he meets fon for the first time, over time they get very attached to one another, but because of the arcobaleno matters, fon goes disappearing, and hibari ends up assuming fon has died and left him behind just like this parents did. fon reappears and goes to meet hibari in occasion of the arcobaleno representative battles and of course wit trauma resurface and about 10 years of beliefs and assumptions hibari really, really struggles with this reunion, but eventually they bond again. (for this one i dont take into account the events in the anime only arcobaleno trial events, as well as the fact that we see all the arcobalenos revived at the end of the future arc)

hibari has an antisocial personality disorder (which implies he already had conduct disorders before the age of 15). it explains his violent and criminal behavior, as well as the fact that he doesn’t feel guilty for anything he does. he also suffers from ptsd and has eating disorders (i thought about the avoidant food intake, where, among the other symptoms, a person avoids to extreme levels some types of food because of characteristics such as their pattern or their color and generally lacks appetite/interest in food)

(wears my enneagram nerd hat) HIBARI IS A TYPE EIGHT. 8w7 precisely, aka the maverick. all about type eight is basically a call out to hibari lmfao but here’s the most relevant characteristics: eights are the real stand-alones of the enneagram. eights’ basic fear is to be harmed and controlled by others, and they steel up to prevent their basic fear from happening (or happening again). below the tough facade there is a vulnerability that cant be shown to anyone. their virtue is innocence, an innocence that they once and forever lost, and hibari basically lost it when his family was assassinated. eights are also associated to the deadly sin of lu st. for hibari its not necessarily the ns fw kinda lu st, rather bloodlu st. and its one big paradox because eights want to be in control of their surroundings, but being consumed by lu st means being under something/someone else’s control (and so we’re back to the basic fear). unhealthy eights are violent, despotic, reckless. all things we see in hibari. very unhealthy eights are also those who typically may develop the antisocial disorder, reason why i listed it above

since he wants to dominate his environment, hibari controls over the namimori and especially the school to feel “security”. he managed it through illegal means and pretty much lives in the school, namichuu is also one of the few places where usually he can sleep without having nightmares

yes, hibari loves sleeping but also he gets nightmares about his past more often than not

but i also love imagining hibari gradually healing and recovering from his trauma, so i do hc that in adulthood he’s mentally doing better. he can be a leader without being tyrannical. he can be strong while also acknowledging his own vulnerability. he is able to love again, too

the reason why he has a soft spot for little animals and children, like we see for ipin, is that he (unconsciously?) sees in them the innocence he himself lost. plus tiny and cute things help him cope when he is having episodes

he also treats ipin well because she is fon’s pupil. and i love to think of them as a little family

if hibari has a ring he really likes or is emotionally attached to he makes sure to never wear it on his fingers so he doesnt risk breaking it with his flames

hibari is pretty much a nerd, in his own twisted way. i mean. he’s seen reading in a bunch of official arts and we know that he’s very fond of the wonders of the world, he started up the foundation for his box researches and he knows well how illusions work - which means he studied them. since he was moved by his hatred towards mukuro, his illusion studies must have reached an unhealthy level, becoming an obsession

fon trained hibari on how to fight against illusions as well

for hibari, finding out he has mist flames too was very much of a shock, but he eventually accepts it. he only uses those flames if really needed (like the foundation entry camouflage)

i will get back to this post when i’ll have established:

why hibari picks tonfas as his weapons (i already have an idea but i havent gone into details myself enough to write about it here)

hibari’s parents and fon’s mother’s name

anything relevant that i forgot or come up with
