[anxiousnerdwritings]

Peppermint Anon would like to ask if you have any general yandere headcanons for Duplikate from Invincible? Peppermint Anon understands if you aren't taking requests at this time and thus will humbly apologise.

Yandere Kate Cha/DupliKate Headcanons (general)

You can say goodbye to any and all alone time you once had. All personal space will also be a given with Kate in your life now. You won’t ever be alone again, something Kate promised very early on. A promise she never plans to break.

She is extremely clingy but not physically so, like she isn’t hanging off of you but she is glued to your side, attached to the hip really. She really likes to be in your presence, she feels content, whole even. There isn’t anywhere else she’d rather be than with you.

Kate has no problem monopolizing all of your time, whether it’s her or her clones, she just can’t take someone else having your attention. It’s not like she’s trying to be controlling over what you do or don’t do. You can still do a good majority of what you want but she just wants to be right there along with you while you go about whatever. She gets extremely anxious and on edge when she isn’t with you, no matter how little those times are when she actually is totally away from you. Kate just has a really hard time being able to separate herself from you even for the tiniest amount of time.

She isn’t the most trusting of those around you either, even if they are her own teammates. Kate just can’t willingly put her trust in anyone to be able to protect or care for you like she can. The only one she can really trust you with is herself (i.e. her and her clones). Noboby else is capable or rather worthy enough to be by your side. To take her place.

It starts out small, almost insignificant when Kate first begins occupying your time. At first it’s just her and her alone. Then one clone gets added to the mix, and then another, and another until eventually your entire friend group has all become just Kate. She’s able to isolate you now, the she wanted from so early on. You can still have your ‘friends’ though, of course you can, but Kate will still always be right there. An overseeing presence completely unwavering in her rightful place where she belongs. And she sure as hell is here to stay.

To say Kate can be spoiling is an understatement. She and her clones are extremely attentive towards their darling, no matter the relationship. She wants to make sure her darling is taken care of to the fullest extent and she’s the only one who can ensure that they are. To an extent, Kate’s darling will be handled and tended to like a doll. She and her clones will help her darling get ready; they will assist in dressing you, brushing/styling your hair, picking out and putting your clothes on for you. Kate especially relishes in being able to bathe her darling. Kate’s favorite thing is being able to take a long, hot shower or bath with her darling (platonic or romantic) after a long day, and get them and herself ready for bed, spending the rest of that time with her and her clones all cuddled up together with their darling right in the middle as they sleep the stress of the day away.

Kate doesn’t really do punishments, she never felt she had to. Now that doesn’t mean she’s completely forgone the idea or the necessity of punishments, but as of right now she feels she doesn’t need to go that route. She’s already pretty much monopolized you to just her, the most she may do for a punishment is isolating you even from herself. Even the mere thought of having to do that throws Kate into a near panic attack. She would much rather avoid it altogether but if it’s a must than she knows she can find it in herself to get through it. After all, if it’s what needs to happen to further ‘improve’ your guys’ relationship than so be it. At the end of the day all that matters is you and her, and she’ll do anything to keep it that way.

Now with a romantic obsession, Kate has much more creative forms of punishment for them that she takes full advantage of. She’s much more willing to partake in punishments with her darling in this case. As far as she sees it these kind of punishments bring you and her closer together, she gets to show you just how much you mean to her while still being able to get a point across too. But honestly, she can’t leave her darling without for too long.

What’s your theory on why Shego specified no cloning in her contract. Like on one hand it’s basic sense and on the other hand you have to wonder what could have happened to make it something she needs in writing.

OH I'VE BEEN WANTING TO TACKLE THIS ONE FOR A WHILE NOW BUT I KEPT ON FORGETTING TO WRITE IT DOWN! HERE GOES!

Shego's zero tollerance to cloning has to do with 2 factors:

1. Individuality (I'm not sure if I'm using the right word here but bare with me for now, I still got a cold and my brain power is at a low) 2. The Wegos 1. Individuality / who's the original? Looking at the Mauler Twins from the tv show Invincible as an example, it's very easy to see why Shego does NOT want to be cloned. It's very difficult to convince an identical clone that they're a clone; you share memories, physical attributes, character, etc. It's literally duplicating another being. She's head strong. Let's say that memories don't apply but character or ego, remains, that way Shego's clone would STILL keep her foot down pledging that she's the original even if gaps are missing "It's a stupid side effect of that stupid cloning machine of Dr. D!" could be an explanation the clone would give. Shego has a very dominant and strong personality so she would brush that off. Even in the SiT:Past episode. When Shego meets her future self, she dismisses the Supreme One as a 'clone' at first glance and doesn't even bother to listen to her right away. Only after a few minutes Shego comes around and follows the Supreme One's instructions: Shego doesn't want to listen to her future self because from her point of view; She (The Supreme one) is not her (Shego) and thus lesser in opinion. Having that said, if you put a few Shego clones in one room, you'd get an all on fight. She can dish out snarky remarks but hates receiving critique; and as one knows, you're your own worst critic. "Uhm... Obviously, you're the clone. I mean, look at your hair." "What? What's wrong with my hair?" "It's obviously synthetic" "Oh I show you synthetic! When I smear your cakey make up all over the floor!" Chaos would errupt and there might be a big chance that all the clones at one point might turn against Drakken for creating this mess in the first place; because all of them would agree that this wouldn't have happened if Drakken just respected the NO CLONING clause! But I hear you thinking: "That doesn't matter because Drakken wanted to improve the (Kim) clones, remember? He said "My Kim clone will be engineered with the lightning fast reflexes of a king cobra…the invincible strength of a rogue elephant… and that killer instinct of… Commodore Puddles" so character or memories wouldn't play a part in it. Shego's clone would be obedient and a killing machine!" YOU'RE WRONG; THIS AN EVEN BIGGER INSULT TO INJURY. IMAGINE YOUR BOYFRI-- BOSS TELLING YOU: "Yeah I want to make a copy of you but it has no mind of it's own and it is way stronger and more powerful than you could be to take down a teenager. Oh, while I'm at it; a lot of yous! That way I have an army." Uhm, HELLO? That's just asking to be beaten up! NO one is better than the original!

2. The Wegos The Wegos have no cloning power but duplication. They can cause a lot of trouble within a short amount of time. I imagine that sometimes the Wegos used their powers to cause mischief; Use their duplications to get out of superhero meetings or bedtime. I have not yet 100% figured out whether the Wego duplications are controlled by a hivemind of the original or if they can act individually upon creation. Again, looking at for example Duplikate from Invincible or Splinter from The Boys they both are superheroes that seem to be sharing a hivemind with the original. If the original is destroyed so are the duplicates. I also have a headcanon (but not entirely worked out and it might stray from the canon) that the Wegos are actually 1 person. Being the youngest, he used his duplication power to keep up a permanent twin so he wouldn't be lonely and overseen by his older siblings. But going back to it: There could be a chance that in her hero days, Shego has seen Wegos injured and may have had some troubles being unable to find the original ones (only finding out after the duplicates disappeared). It is one thing to see your little brother hurt, let alone a whole legion of little brothers. It might've been a scary sight to maybe also see her 'brother' get killed multiple times, even if it was just a dobbleganger.

So that's my take on the whole no cloning thing. :) Hope this answers your question!

[fattestwriting]

I also imagine being worked with duplikate it wouldn't surprise me if you've developed a bit of a Gore fetish Eve mixed with your trauma and your mother I'm just guessing

"I can't say the idea of watching someone crush someone to death under their fat ass isn't appealing..."

Yandere invincible Duplikate with a deaf civilian love interest

sorry this took so long, also I couldn't find a gid for her sorry

I Will Always Love You

words: 739

warnings: stalking, lmk if I missed any!

"So, what you're telling me is, is that you've got a new girlfriend?"

Kate scrolled through her phone, not even paying Rex any attention. "Not yet, but I know they like me."

Sputtering, Rex continued, "Oh, so you know? Then why not, I don't know, ask them to date you? Is it because you're bluffing?"

Kate looked at him before looking back to her phone. "Because I haven't had the time."

"Of course, keep telling yourself that, while you cry being single for the rest of your life."

Slamming the door, Kate continued on with her research. While yes, it would be considered something bad if you found out what she was doing, it wouldn't matter. She could always reveal the superhero personality and say it was for your own good.

She stopped at a photo of you, smiling, wearing some sunglasses at a beach. And then she saw who was with you.

From the tags in the caption, it seemed to be a school friend from highschool. Apparently there was a reunion between your classes, and you both managed to meet each other again.

She narrowed her eyes, mentally making a note of the colleagues name, before continuing on. Really, you didn't have much that would help her, but then again, she could always just do the easy way out:

Stalking.

Pulling out a laptop, she continued to think about you. When searching for your address, she didn't think about what the team would think, only what you would think. She had already made plans and excuses in case you ever found out about her little obsession, but she never thought that it would be such a big deal.

When she found it, she closed the laptop, put on a jacket, and headed out. Of course, she continued to think about you. She wondered if you were even at your house. She should really think about putting a tracker on you.

She turned the corner to your street and stopped mid-walk. Unlocking your door, carrying a few bags of groceries, was you. It was almost sunset, she had no idea why you would be out this late.

Hearing your door shut, she continued on, before she reached your neighbors yard. Quietly and quickly, she opened their little gate, and jumped the fence into your yard. She knew you liked your plants and checked on them frequently, so she avoided the little patches of grass that were obviously pointing out.

She sneaked past your kitchen window and living room window, to your bedroom window. She was barely able to hear your door open and close, before she heard you throw something on the bed.

You opened your closet, probably to get pajamas. Then she heard you walk out of your room.

She peeked in, only to see that the blinds were closed. But your window was open. Knowing she only had a few moments, she pushed out the screen window, and hoped in. She almost got tangled up in the blinds, but she managed. Opening them, and placing back the screen, before closing the blinds.

Looking for a place to hide, she spotted your closet. You had already closed it, and from the looks of it, you wouldn't be using it until the morning. She quickly slipped inside, and shut the door. Crouching on the floor, she let out a breath of relief before she heard you come back in. While she couldn't see anything, she heard you move something off the bed (your bag?) and flop onto it instead.

Afterward, it was simple silence. There was nothing to do, nothing to say, and Kate sat there while she waited. She could hear some movement once in a while, and she had to estimate it was about 2 hours before he heard you place something on the desk, flip over, and try to go to sleep. After another hour, she decided to take the risk: opening the closet door, she slipped out, before quietly shutting the door.

She waited a moment, before continuing on and made her way over to you.

She stood up when she reached your side of the bed, and lightly touched your face. She stood there for a moment, before she lowered herself to you. She could hear your breathing, and when you didn't move from your sleep, she smiled.

"I will always love you, and one day, you will do the same for me."

Powerpuff Girls 2016 - “Blossom³”

Written by: Jake Goldman

Written & Storyboarded by: Benjamin P. Carow, Caitlin Vanarsdale

Directed by: Nick Jennings, Bob Boyle

Three times the trouble.

Not every episode of PPG 2016 starts with an action scene, but this happens to be one of them. We get introduced to a brand new villain named Duplikate, who has the power to duplicate things with her super-suit. Despite not having any other weapons, she's able to rob a bank. She then uses her duplication powers to make a black-and-white clone of the bank, which she just as easily robs.

A minor question: shouldn't be money bags also be black-and-white? If she brought her own bags, would any store accept black-and-white Benjamins? With her personality, I can see her robbing banks just for the fun of it, but it would have been nice to have that come up at one point. In fact, the black-and-white never comes up in the episode beyond the visuals and the lack of "who should I shoot first" cliches.

The Powerpuff Girls suddenly show up to stop her, and Blossom decides to do a multiplication pun for the other two to groan at. Blossom decides to do one of her plans. Her track record doesn't seem to be very good, but I'd imagine this would be a fool-proof plan...

...get a bunch of cars and throw them at her! Buttercup really wants to crush and mangle this villain's bones with at least 10 tons of rubber and steel, but thankfully for Duplikate, the plot, and the censors, someone has to stop her from doing that. Blossom tells Bubbles and Buttercup that the plan didn't call for blue coupes! This starts a theme: Blossom being arbitrarily annoying about something.

While Blossom and the other two are arguing, Duplikate duplicates the cars many times, crushing Bubbles and Buttercup with the duplicated amount of weight. I can’t knock the episode for not being creative with her abilities. She then runs off to have a date with a copy machine, saying that she'll do this again sometime. We can only imagine what that's like.

Blossom says she hates sequels, I can't really blame her after watching most of this, and uses her ice breath to make her slip and fall. This activates her powers, shooting a beam at Blossom that pushes her into the pile of coupes. Buttercup manages to find Blossom, and Bubbles manages to find Blossom twice. Uh oh!

There's now three Blossoms, Blossom 2 and 3 being black-and-white like all of the non-money-related clones. How can we tell the difference between 2 and 3? It never becomes important, so it does not matter. The Professor shows up to say that as long as his number of daughters is a prime number, everything is a-okay. He then leaves for the rest of the episode, making me wonder why they even bother having him around.

Buttercup: Three times the Blossom can only equal one thing...

...three more times the animators can forget to draw Blossom's ponytail? I can see that. Buttercup already has every reason to hate the idea of three Blossoms, but Bubbles needs a little more convincing. I mean, Bubbles doesn't have to worry about those chores now that the Blossoms can do them all. No need to program those perfect robots this time.

Oh, look at the door, it's someone offering free puppy adoptions. Blossom, being the responsible of the three, decides to say no and shut the door right in the guy's face, him visibly sobbing at her uncharacteristic rudeness. This instantly makes Bubbles agree with Buttercup that this is a nightmare. According to a writer's commentary on his Twitter, her actually having a reason would have been too justified for Bubbles. It really explains a lot that "too justified" is considered a reason to cut a joke in this show.

Bubbles: When will this nightmare end?

If that one blog post is right, it will not be too long, Bubbles. As Bubbles' jaw is still dropped at this, all three Blossoms get a call from the Mayor...

...that Pot-Head is on the loose again. His name is actually Infernus, but I misheard them calling him "Pot-Head" in his first appearance, and that name stuck with me ever since. He's apparently a villain made for Kaiju-esque mindless destruction, because that's something the Powerpuff Girls don't normally have to deal with. Sadly true in the reboot.

After Blossom does a “steampunk” joke for the other Blossoms to praise and the other two to groan at once again, they go in to attack him. They all use ice breath on Pot-Head's flames, and they start beating him up. Bubbles and Buttercup attempt to join in...

...but not before flexing their muscles and saying how they're going to clobber this monster. One of the major points of the Powerpuff Girls is that these cutesy little girls are still powerful enough to conquer any enemy that faces them. Scenes like this just spit in the face of that.

The flexing distracted the camera from focusing on the three Blossoms, and, as we all know, being off-camera seems to amplify their powers beyond "can get taken down by glitter and crayons". Buttercup seems completely offended when Blossom was able to take care of the monster by herself and two other Blossoms.

The Blossoms and Bubbles and Buttercup decide to split.

Buttercup: We'll be a duo so dynamic, there will be a bunch of movies based on us!

If you didn't get the reference, cue the obvious Batman TV show transition parody...

...to Crazy Jerry’s Discount Costumes. This is a subtle hint that the Powerpuff Girls are poor, alongside with the Professor’s "side jobs". Does he even have a regular job? I guess he could be a scientist, but that seems to be more of a hobby for him.

Bubbles questions why they would need new costumes. It's for the toys, of course, but Buttercup has a different reason: to give them secret identities. Judging by the villains and even some friends seemingly crashing through the Powerpuff home every now and again, that should be more of a concern, but they do a different running joke with that.

Meanwhile, at the Powerpuff home, it seems like all the Blossoms are happy with each other, so here's the obligatory "having clones is not such a great thing" scene. The other two Blossoms drink all of her milk, clean everything, and, while Blossom is going to read "The Girl With The Dragon Sticker", they do something completely expected.

Blossom 2 or 3: Oh, you mean when they reveal they were on Earth the entire time?!

Does Blossom regularly spoil books to people who she knows has yet to read them? Even Blossom has to deal with Blossom being uncharacteristically unlikable in this episode! I almost wish we could see Duplikate's date with the copy machine.

Instead, we get to see her plans after that date: to rob that same bank again and again. Well, she was not kidding about wanting to do this again sometime. She also has a tank, which she also stole, leading to more proof to the "I'm just robbing banks for fun" theory. After the Blossoms show up, she reveals that can even use her powers on herself. There doesn't seem to be any limit to that ability; she's either too smart or too stupid to realize she can probably cause a grey goo scenario just by herself. Can't decide which.

I could decide that with the next scene, though. Blossom has to think of a plan along with the other Blossoms, but, unlike that time they took down Pot-Head, none of them can agree on what plan to use! Ultimately, the other Blossoms do a plan to figure out that plan.

FOCUS TESTING!

Thankfully, they just say it in unison, no random choirs here. The other Blossoms leave to do a focus testing gag, leaving Blossom to be blasted away by one of the Duplikate's tanks.

The Mayor, realizing “The Blossompuff Girls” aren’t up to it, decide to light the ButterBubbs signal. That was the original title for the episode, by the way; Blossom's so smart, she should be associated with something more mathematic, after all. I mean, it's not like the toughest fighter should be the mathlete, right? I would not complain if that never come up again, because it shouldn't.

The ButterBubbs signal brings out Bubbles and Buttercup, in new costumes they clearly got out of the clearance section of that store. It doesn't look anything like the costumes they pointed out earlier; maybe they were too justified. They decide to use their trusty utility belts...

...specifically, to start whipping them around, and start shouting "gooly gooly gooly" as they comically run, not fly, towards Duplikate. Even Robin’s treatment in Teen Titans Go had more dignity than this. There was some commentary on this scene, and I'm not nearly that delighted to say that "because the storyboarder thought it was funny" theory was correct.

They immediately get blasted by one of the Duplikate's tanks. That's pretty much the end of the Batman parody, didn't that seem like something with a point? Well, there is one point: with just Blossoms, nothing can be done. With just Bubbles and Buttercup, nothing can be done. Only with each Powerpuff Girls' dynamic working with each other can they defeat this villain, with Blossom's planning, Bubbles' randomness, and Buttercup's...randomness.

Yeah, they don't give Buttercup a distinct reason to fight, minus those small hints of bloodthirst in the beginning of the episode. It's another episode where Bubbles and Buttercup are essentially one character. Probably should have expected that out of an episode involving duplicates.

She decides to go with the two-phase "randomly flying around and confuse the clones" plan, but only after one of the tanks blows up her giant scroll that she apparently brought over. Phase two is their usual plan to just stay in one position while all five Duplikates have their tank aimed at them. They do a twist on this plan: they actually fly away the split second they fire. If only they can do that more often.

The intended message was to show that all three Puffs needed to work together, but it seems more like it's better to not have Blossom do any plans. It was apparently the lesson in Monkey Love, too! The Powerpuff Girls are able to send her to jail...via having her being arrested by the police. Yeah, bashing people into jail just isn't fitting of the messages.

Blossom: I guess it all worked out!

Buttercup: Yup, and absolutely zero loose ends!

Bubbles: Totally, right, Blossoms?

All of them: Oh...

I was worried they were not going to bring this up. If this episode suddenly ended with Buttercup saying "I’ll go get the shovel", I would have loved that. I'm glad to know that was intended reference to a previous episode.

Instead, the other Blossoms just get stuck in that same focus testing gag from earlier, because they couldn't decide on how to reference Multiplicity. No, really. They have the same scene twice, and nobody realized they mispelt "guidelines". What a surprise.

Does the title fit?

Apparently, Blossom isn’t the one into math according to this reboot, but I’m going to ignore that and say “very yes.”

How does it stack up?

Cloning episodes usually end up being cliched messes even in good cartoons, and this one is no exception. This isn’t even the best cloning episode of the reboot; unlike The Trouble With Bubbles, this doesn’t get a high Neutral because of missed potential. This one's more of a neutral neutral. Not disgusting enough, it does have a decent villain.

Next, I will never do a reference to that particular slogan.
