Ok, listen. I know, I KNOW that "Phantom Planet's Not Canon Fuck You." Okay?

But just. Hear me out for a second.

Do Halfas Need To Breathe In Ghost Form?

Okay so this is a really lowkeye "debate" (I say that in quotes because it's more just that people have different headcanons and tbh this is the best way anyway because, you know, fuck canon death of the author and all) as to whether or not Danny needs to breathe in halfa form. And while I, like most people, just sorta decide whether or not he needs to breathe based on whatever my fanfic plot needs, I actually think, canonically at least, there is some solid evidence that no, actually, they don't need to breathe in ghost form.

There's a few times in canon where Vlad is choking Danny mid-fight and Danny looks more mildly annoyed than seriously panicked about it, but you can largely chalk that up to Kid's TV Screening Filters, so I don't put much weight on those.

However, there are some moment that sticks out more than the rest. And that's when Danny and Vlad are in space.

Yeah, uh, I'm talking about Phantom Planet.

(I'm sorry)

So initially, both Danny and Vlad are shown to be wearing helmets that presumably have oxygen filtering through them. Now now, I know what you're thinking: Lexx, wouldn't this mean that they do need to breathe in ghost form?

My theory isn't that they can't breathe in ghost form, my theory is that they don't need to breathe in ghost form. There's a difference.

I also think that they probably don't exactly want to test the theory if they have to breathe or now. Better safe than sorry, so let's wear helmets!

(Also, side note, this furthers the other lowkeye "debate" as to whether or not they get seriously cold in their ghost forms because, uh, they're in space with no spacesuit)

But I digress. Here they are shown with helmets, suggesting that they do have some breathing capabilities, even in ghost form.

But at the end of the episode, we see Vlad here chilling on a space rock, no helmet in sight, looking perfectly fine albeit disappointed and bored.

This, obviously, suggests that halfas do not need to breathe in ghost form. And I think Vlad literally just discovered that as soon as he was ejected to space sans helmet.

So my theory is, while Danny and Vlad have the organs required for breathing and do breathe as a reflex automatically, when put in situations like outer space where oxygen is not available, their ghost half takes over a little more and they stop breathing. I think this is such an automatic thing that when this change happens in day to day life (like Danny being choked by Vlad mid ghost-fight), that like how us humans don't actively think about breathing, we just kinda do it, they don't really notice it either.

So that's my theory. I'm so sorry for needing to cite Phantom Planet here. I'm sure there's other things you can pull from canon too, but this was just the most obvious. Again, headcanons ftw, okay peace out ✌️

After giving the episode Boxed Up Fury! a second chance (and third and fourth watch), not only did I find Box Ghost to be hilarious in his over-the-top way; I think Pandora could have been the ghost that convinced Jack and possibly Maddie that ghosts can be sentient beings who mean well, like they do.

I'm referring to how after Pandora made her little speech about how she created her famous box to trap malevolent ghosts too make the ghost zone and earth safer; Jake offered to share his s'mores supplies with her when she says beating up the box ghost worked up an appetite. I repeat, canon Jack Fenton offered a sweet treat to a ghost, a sincere gesture.

I think it would take a ghost Jack and Maddie could relate to on multiple levels and like at first impression to chip away at their "ghosts are always bad even if they do something good" mindset. Pandora invented a box to contain destructive ghosts, just like they would. She added a 'spew' switch, which is totally something Jack would do. Accent and outfit and limbs notwithstanding, she looks and talks a lot like Maddie does. She is also humongous for a humanoid ghost, and Jack is a humongous human. After all the zapping, the way she tells the box ghost he will have to clean up the messes he made and apologize, it's in a parental style that they would also relate too.

Pandora is a ghost I could see canon Jack and Maddie chat with in that moment, too Danny's delight. Maybe on the drive home from the park they can entertain the possibility that Phantom could be sincere in his protection of Amity Park's humans after all. And since Phantom Planted is a universally ignored episode, the last thing Jack or Maddie say or do about ghosts after this episode is a shrink-growth experiment on some cranky little blob ghosts. So their attitudes towards ghosts could have softened a tad, thanks to Pandora.

One of the big things that make my progress slow is getting through all of the manga (and hopefully novels!) Right now I'm going through A Link To The Past manga and it's fascinating how (unlike the game) the manga writers love giving Link a team! Especially with a team member that sort-of mirrors Link's journey. [Spoilers ahead!]

[Because of the image limit it's broken up into multiple posts, sorry!

In the 2005 manga by Himekawa, this role is filled by Ghanti, a young bandit who was raised to believe the Knights of Hyrule killed her parents, but the bandit-leader who took her in lied, as she was actually a daughter of some knights (who were killed by Ganon/Agahnim). At first she appears to be human (or at least has rounded ears), but she's revealed to be a hylian (her ears having been hidden) with an earring that's the silver arrow needed to kill Ganon! She's fiercely independent but loyal. She also gets a beast form in the dark world!

这边也发个备份！源于我看到shabu老师在思考钟塔的结构，那么我心想既然我有建筑类的专业背景，我为什么不研究一下呢？尽管它有些超乎常规。

所以我就做一点微小的贡献🥺我截图并拼起来然后思考了一下结构……希望这能对想画场景的CW推们有帮助。

发条的居所真的很漂亮。我非常喜欢，希望能看到更多的人画它。

我猜内部场景会变化，它没有统一标准，只有大概结构。🤔而且我画平面的时候也没有特别关注透视关系。将就看看。

It occurred to me that some people missed the fact that Ekko and Powder are already in a romantic relationship in the AU even before Arcane Ekko came in, so here's a thread:

First moments they have, Powder is already invading his personal space and is very touchy. Could be taken from the fact that Pow is touchy in general. But after the dance it gets more intimate.

2. There was no need to hold his hand but the girl has to talk her to her man asap, then adding another touch of comfort after she scolds him for not sleeping properly.

3. They draw each other with/in hearts and apparently also give each other flowers with 'I <3 YOU' notes.

4. Someone "just crushing" wouldn't be able to be this confident when approaching said crush.

4.5. Extra detail: Powder's shoes having original Ekko's outfit colours matches when Ekko had Jinx's stripes on his own during the battle.

5. She was WAY too casual during the first lean in, almost as if it wasn't the first time they've done this. Note: she's already aware there's something going on with Ekko and backed away when he did because she didn't wanna push him.

6. That's because it wasn't the first time, per confirmation on Ekko's part. He probably asked Heimerdinger what his relationship was with Powder along the way, leading him to ask the 'first time' request when kissing her was no longer avoidable.

When people will actually write fanfics following this, then I'll be able to die happily.

Fanon party and how they react to Byler. (and how it makes the party OOC.)

One thing I hate about some fics is that SOME people get to damn deep into the fanon. Like, I swear some people treat Will like he's incapable. It's like people think Will is going to completely break and fall apart if Mike is straight. Like no? Will already thinks Mike IS straight, chat he's sad but he isn't some "uwu baby". It's completely apparent that some people think Will NEEDS to be protected at all cost and it shows in how they write the Party treating Mike. Basically, in multiple fics and videos i have seen (Cough, cough, gacha reacts, cough, COUGH.) the creators write the party absolutely LOATHING Mike. Berating him, putting him down, taking apart his every insecurity, calling him homophobic, MAKING him homophobic, acting like he's satan for not showing that he likes Will back. I've seen a few were they kick Mike OUT OF HIS OWN PARTY, for not liking Will back. Like, I've also seen a couple where they treat the garage scene like it was worse than the upside down. They don't even have the party try to understand why Mike did that, or ask if Will forgives him, or even make Mike apologize. No! Because that would be just TO inconceivably. No, they say fuck that noise and chose the secret fourth option of making Mike into some homophobic dickhead that hated Will from the start and everything he did before that was just acting. Like WTF???

The way they treat Will is WORSE. Like I touched on it earlier, but they have the party FAWN over him. Acting like Will can do no wrong, and like Will needs every member at the party at his beck and call while sobbing every five seconds. This is, of course, the most extreme cases but once you see these things you can't UNSEE it. They make Will into some fragile thing that Mike sought out to break, it also seems to like babyfy? (i don't know the word.) Will, he's more childish and well fragile. he's not Will anymore. Like did we all collectively forget the POINT of season two's byler relationship? Mike was the only one who didn't treat Will like he was going to break, Will hates that shit, he would NEVER act like this and yet some fanfic writers do that. Also,also, Will would be SO FUCKING PISSED at the party if they excluded and bullied Mike like they do in those fics. He would lose his shit on him. People forget but while Mike and Will may have crushes on each other. They are BEST FRIENDS above all else.

One of the plots of season four was that despite the relationship getting in the way of their friendship, they will stay friends. That "let's make our own party" line wasn't just romance coding, it was saying that they are always friends solo. If Dustin and Will fought, Mike and Will would still be friends. If Lucas and Mike fought, Will and Mike would still be friends. If something happens to the rest of the party, Mike and Will are always going to be Mike and Will because they have their own "Solo party." they are best friends above everything. So the party bullying the fuck out of Mike would NOT slide with Will. The party babying Will wouldn't slide. The party trying to keep Mike and Will away from each other wouldn't slide. Which is another thing, the party would NEVER pull that shit on Mike, because they are FRIENDS too.

Season one was Mike, Dustin, Lucas, and El being best friends without Will. Mike even said that they are all his best friends. The party all adore each other, they would never side with one person and isolate the other. No, they would make each other work it out. They would help Mike make it up to Will and visa versa (REMEMBER THIS REMEMBER VISA VERSA!) because of that "Drawn first blood" rule. You think that they would establish that in season one for no fucking reason? Hell no, Lucas and Mike made up because Mike drew first blood, he apologized, and Lucas held no grudges and that the fucking point. The party doesn't do grudges, they are all each other have and they know it, they know that each member doesn't mean to hurt each other. They will make up every time because they care for each other EQUALLY above all else. So them taking one side doesn't make sense.

Now, here is where visa versa comes in. Some fanfics treat Will like he can NEVER be in the wrong, ever. Like even if it's a throwaway line. i've seen in some really good fics that the characters first reactions, even Nancy and El's, are "Oh, what did Mike do now!" When they have a fight. Like it's never. "Oh what happened?" It's always. "What did MIKE do?" It's a small thing but it shows how DEEP fanon has it's claws in all of us, hell I'm at fault of doing it and I try to go back in fix it. Since, being for real, not a single party member would say that other than Max. As said about, they are all about equality, equal grounds and first blood, they would always say. "What happened?" instead of, "what did Mike do?" because they would be drawing first blood by saying that since it's a unfair slight against a party member. Especially since they've all dealt with bullying in the past, they all know how hard words dig into you, so they would never do something like that to one of their friends. I also hate how some authors don't make Will start a fight too? Like relationships always have dumb fucking fights from both sides, Will would pull some stupid shit just the same as Mike. They are both fourteen in season 4 not only old enough to work their own shit out without being coddled but also old enough to be responsible for their actions.

Will lied to Mike, it doesn't matter if he's trying to save Mileven, he lied and Mike would hate that. Pulling up Mike's past actions doesn't change the fact that Will can slight Mike just as Mike can slight Will. So the party dismissing that but hounding on Mike for paying attention for his girlfriend (even if the way he went about it was dickish and completely messy.) is OOC. Jonathan hating Mike is OOC, the party hating Mike is OOC, Will hating Mike is OOC, Mike hating Will is OOC. They are all equal and equal rights is equal fights. Also, doubling back for a second. Jonathan would NEVER fucking hate Mike. EVER, he's worried for Will's feelings. He wants Will to be happy, but he's known Mike is WHOLE life. Jonathan would be more concerned about why tf Mike is wigging out like this then angry. He knows well enough that you can't make somebody love you (Being in love with Nancy and the whole Steve thing.) He would be annoyed that Mike hurt Will and El, but not pissed of and cold to him. That's the thing fics get wrong. Jonathan would be CONCERNED not COLD. He would grill Mike for answers but not interrogate aggressively, more like gently guide it out of him. Creating a safe space to get the information.

Now, going back to the Will thing. if you can't imagine your party that you're writing, your cast if you will, being mad at Will but can imagine them all being mad at Mike with ease. Then you aren't writing them in character. They can all be mad at each other; Jonathan can be mad at both Will and Mike. Nancy can be mad at Will and Mike, the party can be mad at Will and Mike, and it's never all on one person. The party are scientists and detectives at heart, they don't jump to conclusions, they get the full story. Also, shovel talks. Another thing I hate is when the entire CAST, not just the party, tells Mike that "If you hurt Will, i'll kill you." but Mike is never given the same treatment. They will have NANCY threaten Mike about hurting Will but not Will? She'll threaten her own brother but not his boyfriend? No fucking wonder Mike doesn't really care for Nancy in some fics, I would to if my sister expecting me to hurt my own fucking boyfriend! WHAT THE HELL??? Like, never, in any fic that I have seen. (if you guys have one that does, DROP THE LINK OR NAME! I need to see it and comment my praises.) does any, ANY, of that characters give Will a shovel talk for Mike. They never do a "if you hurt Mike." it's like everybody expects Mike to being a callous bitch at all times.

Like if I was Will, and heard all my friends threatening my other friend and boyfriend but I wasn't getting the same talk, I WOULD BE PISSED. Because not only is that a dick move, since they are already expecting the worse out of my boyfriend and that's THEIR FRIEND too. But because they don't think that i'm capable of the same thing, I know damn well that i can accidently hurt my girl, I don't want to and I would never if i could but I know it. So it would feel like my friends expect me to be some frail thing that my partner could only hurt. FUCK THAT! I want my relationship to always be EVEN, no power imbalance and a shovel talk on always one party is implying one. (i'm not explaining this well but I hope my point is getting across.)

Anyways TL:DR, Will's not an incapable UWU baby that can do no wrong he's a fourteen-year-old boy as of season 4. Mike's not satan incarnated and is also a fourteen year old boy as of season 4. And the party wouldn't pick sides in a fight. Write your characters more in canon instead of STEEPED in fanon.

How do you think Sans reacts to Papyrus’s death during the runs?

If you mean in the base game, uh... we kinda already know? If Papyrus is killed, Sans doesn't show up again until the final corridor, where he'll ask "if you have some sort of special power, isn't it your responsibility to do the right thing?"

If you answer yes (that you do have that responsibility), then he responds, without eyelights or sound font, "Then why'd you kill my brother?"

And if you answer no (you aren't responsible), you get "well, that's your viewpoint. i won't judge you for it.... You dirty brother killer."

There's also the line of description you get if you go on to have a concert with Shyren after killing Papyrus: "A hooded figure watches the commotion from afar." It replaces the line that mentions Sans selling toilet paper tickets to your concert, and of course, of all the characters with hoods in the game, he's the one who would be most concerned with tracking your actions after killing Papyrus. So, it makes the most sense to infer that this hooded figure is Sans.

So his reactions, to me at least, suggest that not only is he heartbroken, he's furious with you. But Sans isn't one for direct confrontations and shouting like Undyne is, so he watches, and I think he still tries to understand why you'd do something so horrible. But that doesn't stop him from being angry because there's no excuse for killing his brother, but sparing other monsters, that he can fathom.

I'm personally not a fan of depictions of Sans sobbing over Papyrus' dusty scarf--he just doesn't strike me as a guy whose first reaction is to cry. For my understanding of him, it makes more sense for him to go numb, initially, then save his anger for his parting shot in the last corridor. No matter what you answer, Sans gets the last word in, and it's always to remind you that you did not have to kill his brother.

So uh, yeah. that's what I think.

this ask came to me in a dream and i must speak on its behalf: what do you think about homestuck beyond canon

I think it's too early for me to have a well-formed opinion at this point, for a very specific reason.

I basically agree with the majority opinion that the post-epilogue story which would eventually become Beyond Canon is characterised by a whole lot of spite toward its target audience. Where I differ is that I don't think this is anything new; a certain sneering contempt for their audience has always been a hallmark of Andrew Hussie's work, and it's present in Homestuck right from day one. At most, Hussie getting burnt out from the Hiveswap fiasco resulted in a text that's somewhat less willing to entertain the polite fiction that its readers are in on the joke, but that's not a change – it's just saying the quiet part out loud.

The interesting part is that this contempt isn't merely undirected bile: it's motivated by a particular stance regarding the purpose of fiction. Writing a story which invites emotional investment, then turning around and calling you a stupid baby for actually becoming invested in it is one of Hussie's favoured narrative sleights of hand, but it's not the Charlie Brown-esque football pull it appears to be – or, rather, it's not only that. Lurking under it is the insistence that fictional characters are, ultimately, objects: tools for exploring a narrative space. Ironic detachment is the only "correct" way to approach works of fiction, because when you emotionally relate to a fictional character (or, heaven forfend, actually identify with one), you are fundamentally committing a category error – like you've mistaken a hat for your wife.*

To what extent Hussie actually believes any of that, and to what extent it's just a very committed bit they're doing is a fair question, but that's not important here; sincere or not, the opening stages of (what was not yet) Beyond Canon are dyed in the cloth with it. Care of the comic has subsequently been handed off to a separate creative team who, to all textual evidence, don't buy into this notion of what-fiction-is-for at all, but they're building on a foundation that's steeped in it. What we're looking at now is a serialised narrative which disagrees with its own premise. I genuinely cannot imagine what sort of flower they're expecting to grow in the soil they've been given, and I don't think we're far enough in to draw any well-supported conclusions just yet.

All of which is a very complicated way of saying that I'm just here for the show!

It’s been clear that the Tanizakis aren’t siblings from the very beginning

here’s some evidence now that it’s been confirmed canon…

everyone who’s read irl Tanizaki’s book knew that Junichiro & Naomi weren’t siblings as soon as they introduced themselves

BUT just because the Tanizakis aren’t siblings doesn’t mean you can’t feel uncomfortable about them. if you feel uncomfortable, GOOD. that’s exactly what they want

the Tanizakis, Mori— they all use these disturbing ruses to disarm or distract people in order to protect themselves, or to accomplish their goals. this is a writing device that asagiri commonly employs as a way to parallel the irl literature (it’s actually ingenious)

there are 4 main indicators that have always made it clear to me that Junichiro & Naomi are not siblings:

1. most obviously— their character designs. Harukawa is extremely intentional with character designs, & she very intentionally made Naomi & Junichiro look nothing alike

their eye shapes are purposely different

their color palettes are contrasting

even their differing styles of clothing have meaning

this was all done so that the audience could PLAINLY see that they’re not related— so that WE know that they’re lying when they say they ARE related

2. how the people around them respond to their act.

the general reaction is “don’t question it”— which is exactly what they want. “be distracted by how uncomfortable you feel so that you look away from what we’re hiding” (this is likely a protective measure)

3. most importantly, this is meant to parallel irl Tanizaki’s book “Naomi,” where the main character Joji picks up Naomi to raise her into his ideal woman, but since she's so young (& a minor) they call each other cousins (Joji makes no sexual advances on young Naomi btw)

however, his plan backfires because when Naomi gets older & they get married, she flips the script on him & manipulates HIM so that he's under her thumb (which is why bsd Tanizaki is at a domineering Naomi's mercy). Joji let her have her way because of his masochistic tendencies

4. lastly is the emphasis that Asagiri and the Tanizakis themselves put on calling each other siblings.

over & over, it’s “my brother this” & “my sister that”

like they’re desperately trying to convince us that it’s true (“don’t let your lying eyes deceive you”)

here are just a few of many examples from the light novels…

again, if you’ve read “Naomi” you knew that Junichiro & Naomi weren’t siblings as soon as they introduced themselves

just like if you’ve read irl Mori’s works, it’s clear that bsd Mori isn’t a pedophile

just like if you’ve read No Longer Human you know that Dazai’s an unreliable narrator. he makes you think he’s a bad person bc he believes he’s a bad person, but those around him see him differently (btw this doesn’t mean he’s never done anything “bad,” though bsd isn’t about morality— but that’s another discussion)

anyway, i’m so excited for the Tanizakis backstory to be revealed so that we can better understand why they use this defense!!

also let this be a reminder to READ THE LITERATURE if you’re able to!! even reading synopses & analyses of the coordinating books makes bsd make much more sense 🥹

reminder that this how you’re supposed to react while reading bsd:

also, if you’re interested in a post explaining how Mori isn’t a pedo, i wrote this analysis on twt. OR you can read this document that one of my moots sent me (remember: analyzing a character does NOT mean you condone any actions they may or may not commit!)

I think a lot of modern Sherlock Holmes adaptations (as in, Holmes in the modern era) miss out by having Holmes work so closely with the police. A lot of people forget that Holmes was one of the original ACAB bitchies in fiction; he did not like the police. Yes, he worked alongside them sometimes, but he often talked about them with open distain. Sometimes he even worked directly against them (think of The Norwood Builder).

Granted this was mostly because the police lacked a lot of the skills they have today, such as forensics, something that Holmes was an advocate for, and tended to draw conclusions that did not fit the obvious facts. This has obviously changed - the police have a lot more resources at their disposal nowadays, but they are not a perfect institution - far, far from it, and if he were alive today, Holmes would have a lot to say about that.

I wish modern adaptations stayed true to the fact that in canon, Sherlock Holmes was the man you went to if you could not go to the police. If you had, perhaps, a criminal record, were homeless, were POC, were queer, were neurodivergent, an abuse victim, reliant on illegal substances, or even wrongfully accused, Sherlock Holmes would be the man you went to, and he would help you to the best of his ability.

Also, Holmes had his own unique sense of justice. Think of The Abbey Grange - a man murders the abusive husband of an old lover, and the wife is complicit. Holmes and Watson ultimately decide to let them go - Lady Brackenstall was being horribly abused, she was trapped in a loveless marriage with a violent husband. Captain Crocker murdered Sir Eustace, freeing Lady Brackenstall and perhaps saving her life. If the police had arrested Crocker, it would be very likely he would be hanged for murder, regardless of the circumstances.

Then there is James Ryder in the Blue Carbuncle. He, after Holmes pesters him, freely admits to stealing the jewel, but Holmes does not hand him over to the police and instead lets him walk free. It was Ryder's first offence, one he was manipulated into committing, and Holmes and Watson see him as a, quite frankly, pathetic little man. Holmes realises that if he were to turn Ryder in, it would destroy his life - he would be 'a jailbird for life'. Ryder committed a crime, but he is no criminal. Prison would turn him into one.

Holmes takes justice into his own hands, and in a way, it turns him into an anti-hero. But I think this a part of what makes him such a loveable, iconic character.

Holmes has created a 'safe space' within 221B Baker Street. I think this would be extremely intresting to explore through a modern lens.

CW的过去

EN/KR/CH

EN：

I think that Clockwork started out as a ghost with the power of time, a power that was innate to him, but he still needed to learn how to control it And the power of time has also had an impact on him. When a person sees too much, his memory becomes confused, doesn't it? When he was born in the tower, he found that the clocks around him would change their time because of him, emitting soft hums, and their chaotic time would become normal because of his touch His existence is like a clockwork. The clockwork of the clock tower, the clockwork of time So his name is "CLOCKWORK' In order to prevent himself from forgetting who he is, he wrote his name in many places In the TV series, his clone didn't have a clock on his chest. So, perhaps, when he truly mastered the power of time, was no longer affected by it, and could calmly become a god overlooking the river —— the clock grew out of his chest

He was shocked, distressed, and surprised, but he quickly learned to adapt. After all, when you are a clock yourself, you are more likely to be closer to time, right? He is connected to the power of time. The clock in the clock tower also bears part of the timeline he can switch between the form of a child, an adult and an old man. This is actually a manifestation of time. What do you do when you go to proofread a mechanical watch? Adjust the pointer repeatedly, right? So when he switches his form (age), he is actually correcting his own time to offset the slight impact he may have received It's like, when time goes too fast, he can become a child. Rewind! This will offset That's pretty convenient, right? Also, when he does fight, he's always an adult… so he can actually control what form he takes🤔 At the same time, he also dispersed his power and made many things, such as staffs, time medals (and possibly even consoles) He concentrated most of his power in the staff, but he could use his power without it………. It was a way to confuse the enemy: if you carried a lantern in the dark, who would think whether you had night vision? Of course, CW may not just be a decoration. It can also be a seal text. In mysticism, some ancient texts have power in themselves. Words themselves are a force.

TV 시리즈에서 그의 클론은 가슴에 시계가 없었기 때문에, 그가 진정으로 시간의 힘을 터득하게 되면 더 이상 시간의 영향을 받지 않고 조용히 강을 바라보는 신이 될 수도 있었을 것입니다. 시계는 그의 가슴에서 자랐다 그는 충격을 받고 괴로워하고 놀랐지만 빨리 적응하는 법을 배웠습니다. 결국, 당신 자신이 시계라면 시간에 더 가까워질 가능성이 더 높죠? 그는 시간의 힘과 연결되어 있습니다. 시계탑의 시계도 타임라인의 일부를 담고 있습니다. 아이의 모습, 어른의 모습, 노인의 모습을 오갈 수 있는 거죠. 이것은 실제로 시간의 표현입니다. 기계식 시계를 교정하러 갈 때 포인터를 반복적으로 조정하면 어떻게 합니까? 그래서 그가 자신의 형태(나이)를 바꿀 때, 그는 실제로 자신이 받았을 수도 있는 약간의 충격을 상쇄하기 위해 자신의 시간을 수정하고 있는 것입니다.

시간이 너무 빨리 가면 아이가 될 수도 있는 것 같아요. 꽤 편리하죠? 그리고 싸울 때도 항상 어른이거든요… 실제로 어떤 모습을 취할지 조절할 수 있죠🤔 동시에 그는 자신의 힘을 분산시켜 스태프, 타임 메달(아마도 콘솔까지) 등 많은 것을 만들었습니다. 그는 대부분의 힘을 지팡이에 집중했지만 그것 없이도 힘을 사용할 수 있었습니다….. 그것은 적을 혼란시키는 방법이었습니다. 어둠 속에서 랜턴을 들고 다니면 야간 시력이 있다고 누가 생각하겠습니까? 물론 CW는 단순한 장식이 아닐 수도 있고, 신비주의에서는 단어 자체가 힘이 되는 경우도 있습니다.

我认为，发条出生时，就是一个拥有时间之力的幽灵，这种力量是他与生俱来的，但他仍然需要学习如何控制它。

而时间之力也对他产生了影响。当一个人看得太多时，他的记忆就会变得混乱，不是吗？

当他第一次在钟塔中醒来，他发现周围的时钟会因为他而改变时间，发出轻柔的低吟，混乱的时间也会因为他的触碰回归正常。

他的存在就像是一个发条。钟楼的发条，时间的发条。

所以他的名字是“CLOCKWORK”。

为了防止遗忘自我，他在很多地方都写上了自己的名字。

在TV里，他的分身胸前没有时钟。所以，或许，当他真正掌握了时间的力量，不再受其影响，能够从容地成为俯瞰河流的神明时——

时钟从他的胸口长了出来。

他震惊，痛苦，惊讶，但很快就学会了适应。毕竟，当你自己就是个时钟的时候，你就更有可能掌控时间的力量，对吧？

他连接着时间的力量。钟塔里的时钟也承载着部分时间线。他可以在孩子、成人和老人的形态之间切换。这其实就是时间的一种表现。你去校对机械表的时候会做什么？反复调整指针，不是吗？

所以当他切换形态（年龄）的时候，其实是在修正自己的时间，以抵消他可能受到的微小影响。就好像，当时间走得有点快时，他可以变成一个孩子。倒带！这样就可以抵消……

这很方便！而且，当他要面临战斗时，他总是保持成人形态……所以他实际上可以控制他的形态。

同时，他还分散自己的力量制作了很多东西，比如权杖、时间勋章（甚至可能是控​​制台）……他把大部分力量集中在权杖上，但他可以在没有权杖的情况下使用他的力量……….这是一种迷惑敌人的方法：如果你在黑暗中提着灯笼，谁会想到你是否有夜视能力？

当然，CW可能不仅仅是一种装饰品。它也可以是封印文本。在神秘学中，一些古代语言本身就具有力量。文字本身就是一种力量。
