So a Girl Genius Scholomance AU is interesting to me because on a character level Agatha is El and Gil is Orion—Agatha very much eschews the path set forward for her as a great evil and instead strives to do the best for her and Her People (notably, she and El share the same “these people are mine, actually, and I will protect them” view of the world that slowly grows to encompass more and more people as time goes on), while Gil struggles to connect with others and is deeply unhappy when doing what is expected of him while eventually going ahead with it anyway. He also has the whole monster hunter vibe going for him. Admittedly, Gil doesn’t struggle in the same way with empathy and connection as Orion does. His is more based on second-guessing others motivations with him, and he does happily and easily make friends—it’s romantic connection that eludes him for the most part.

The fun part is, when you consider their backgrounds the connections to El and Orion completely flip.

Like, Gil and El both have a side of the family that they’re completely alienated from due to bad omens surrounding them, and they were raised in a non-traditional setting by a single parent who strives to do the Right Thing (Klaus and Gwen differ in how good they are at raising kids though lmfao). You can even draw connections back to alienation from their culture—El at least knows where her father came from and speaks the language, but Gil is completely divorced from his mother and doesn’t even know who she is. They’re both barred from participating in their culture for the same reasons they’re alienated from half their family.

Agatha and Orion, meanwhile, were both Created With A Purpose by mothers who range from morally gray to totally corrupt. They both struggled to behave like normal children, with Orion not understanding or valuing human social norms and Agatha’s spark constantly straining to break through. This caused frustration and concern from the adults and mentors around them, and they were both somewhat alienated from their peers. Ophelia and Lucretia both share a certain big picture way of thinking, though admittedly Lucretia’s motives are almost entirely selfish in nature (an interesting contrast with Agatha’s own selfish way of thinking!) and Ophelia’s are pretty damn selfless, though in a very fun way. Selflessness due to ruthlessness is a good way of putting it, and Ophelia very much plays the numbers game in almost the same way the Scholomance itself does.

I’m going to have to play around with this more, because I think the way things line up is fascinating.

(Tarvek is a version of Liesel that successfully pulls off her powerhouse polycule plan.)

SGU Week Day 5: wildcard

I'm just posting some of my most ridiculous memes here for your enjoyment~

Mr. Sandman, send me a meme. Make it the dumbest shit I've ever seen.

Eli gets Rush a Garfield shirt. He refuses to take it off.

Lisa and Dale watched Terminator last week.

Pour one out for the Neopets that got abandoned because their owners got stranded on a spaceship.

"All right, Brody, you can put adding those knife blades to the sides of the shuttlecraft on the back burner. This week, we're making a blender. But like, a cool blender. A blender that could blend a guy."

"A brick."

"Yeah, well, if it can blend a brick, it can blend a guy."

"Water? You mean like in the toilet?"

Extra Dip

I think if they could move past their differences, with their combined imagination and familiarity with the ship's systems, they could generate something truly ludicrous.

This actually has context but I am not going to give it to you

They had an unspoken agreement not to mention the Moments.

That’s what Eli dubbed them. The-Moments, with a capital M, and a hyphen if he said it fast enough. Not that he ever said it. That’s where the unspoken part of “unspoken agreement” came in.

Or; Destiny takes control of the crew, sometimes. Eli starts to notice.
