mythal, flemeth, or flemythal?
my opinions on this incredibly complicated woman. nothing here is like... hard canon i can firmly prove, i'm just extrapolating based on what we see (mostly in dai tbf)
i don't even have a super strong read on what her deal is, these are just some of the thoughts i'm having about her tonight
note: this is NOT character hate and if u add character hate to this post you WILL get blocked. but i'm not softening her either - she is pretty fucked up and i'm not going to ignore that
cws: abuse
flemeth and mythal
flemeth: a (human?) woman who was betrayed, whose love was killed
mythal: an elvhen woman, an evanuris, who was killed by her family
when mythal was killed she found her way to flemeth because they were similar. something in flemeth drew mythal to her. there's a lot of options here, although i tend to think it's their shared personal histories and experiences that drew them together, particularly their shared pain. they bonded in some way, some physical manner of becoming one, inseparable, inexorably connected
early on, they might have been more distinct. sharing a body, but still with an individualized sense of self. however, i believe that over time that separation became smoothed, blurred. it's like how very wounded people can sometimes come together and find resonance in their shared experiences, a sense of familiarity, and let it go too far. into the territory of codependence, but so extremely literal in this case
maintaining their body
i'm not sure how they manage this. the way i see it, there are two main options, with a lot of branching details:
body hopping through her daughters, or
literally any other way
#1 is of course possible, but i don't tend to lend it a lot of credence. but let's say it's true, and that what flemythal tells morrigan in the fade is true, that the hosts need to be willing. in that case, her daughters - throughout centuries - would have had to consent to having their selves taken over to host their very complicated mom. i can buy that some of them would have consented; maybe flemythal twisted them into feeling like they had to perform a function, that they had a fate, a destiny, and then revealed what it was. but all of them?
perhaps some did deny her. maybe she forced them to accept - threatened their loved ones, maybe - or else gave them up and started again with a new child. but it's still a lot of finding a new body throughout a massive period of time. it just doesn't feel very likely to me
so, that brings us to option #2. there are many particular ways this could go - the men she brought home and drained, perhaps they sustained her single body, flemeth's original body, that she has always worn. perhaps she uses blood magic, or elvhen magic, or elvhen technology, or- like there are a LOT of possibilities
but i also think #2 is more likely because that would mean the grimoire was a total lie. and why would she lie to morrigan in that way? perhaps because morrigan was curious, intelligent, inquisitive, and flemythal had to throw her off the truth? so she provided a horrific lie, let morrigan "discover" it, let her live in that horror, all the while it just... concealed how she actually continued her existence. give morrigan an answer that was appropriately awful and horrifying so she'd think she found the truth, because it fit what she thought she knew of her mother. and if she found her answer, then she'd stop looking for the real answer
that feels more in line with flemythal's character. she's very much a chessmaster, positioning people throughout the centuries. which leads me to my next point...
flemythal and feelings
first off, i think that both flemeth and mythal have suffered abuse at the hands of people they lived with, perhaps people they loved. i think in both cases that led them to being closed-off, cynical, and self-centered
in the case of body-hopping, i think she would have developed a very thick skin regarding her children which would limit - or even eliminate - any real feelings she might have had for them. if she doesn't body-hop, i still think she'd be tempted to keep herself apart, and in either case she enacts some of the abuse she(/they) were subject to
in the body-hopping scenario, she's used so many of her daughters, in some manner or other. but in both scenarios, she's existed so far beyond a normal mortal lifespan. if she did care about people, she'd inevitably see them die. again and again and again
both mythal and flemeth were abused by the people around them (in mythal's case she was literally killed by her family - the fact that it didn't take is intriguing, but doesn't lessen what they tried to do to her or the emotional toll it would take)
so all this is to say... i don't think she'd really care about mortals. maybe she did once, maybe not; maybe she's too mired in her pain and anger to care about anyone else, or maybe she's lost too many people she did care about and hardened herself to avoid more suffering
but yeah, idk if she cares about morrigan, or about kieran, or even necessarily about solas, although with him if she's scared of losing the people she cares for, he's safe. but if she's just closed off, then it wouldn't matter that he's (possibly/presumably?) immortal as well
she fascinates me. we know so little that's absolutely beyond a shadow of a doubt true about her - and we know that some of what was presented in-game as truth turned out to NOT be. flemythal is keeping secrets. she always has been
and final note: the line to morrigan about a willing host, about her never being in any danger from flemythal... that could've been her referencing her own act of coming together. perhaps the only willing host in their entire joint history was flemeth herself

I was gonna put this in the tags but I got too mad about it
This situation is ridiculous to me. They literally pulled two women out of a hat so they could have Splashtail supporters to kick out when Podlight was right there. If they had remembered Fognose existed and properly set her up it could have been her and Podlight exiled and everything would be better, because they were both on that original patrol as well. But no, even though Podlight has already been implied to be in on at the very least Reedwhisker's murder, Fognose is randomly "evil" now and joined by her new friend Breezeheart. It's crazy how fast they were kicked out too, like we're supposed to forgive RiverClan for being "forced" to do these terrible things by this one guy because they were too stupid to just. . . rise up against him, but because these two women weren't immediately accepting of the other clans killing their terrible leader(who is the littermate of one of them), the entire clan gangs up against them. Gorseclaw attacked his own medicine cat and beat up Wasp before Splashtail started threatening kits, then later alerted Splashtail to Nightheart talking with Fognose, therefore being the reason Nightheart was almost killed, but Breezeheart got mad that now RiverClan will never be left alone because RiverClan let the other clans kill their leader and suddenly that proves she's the absolute worst and doesn't deserve to live by the lake. And no one stands up for them, not even Breezeheart's sister, after they're kicked out not by a RiverClan cat, but by the leader that RiverClan actively has a grudge against FOR INTERFERING IN RIVERCLAN MATTERS IN THE FIRST PLACE!! And the book wants us to believe that her mom is ALSO completely ok with this when she gets back. Absolute nonsense, all of it.
actually insane that out of podlight, fognose and breezeheart only one was actually a significant and active tool in splashtail’s rise to power and treachery while also doing the exact same things as the other two and yet he, as the only man, gets to stay while the two women who did less then him get a whole scene where they get told how much they suck and kicked out

i think one of the things the pjo show has understood the best so far is specifically the isolation and insecurities that come with being neurodivergent, and how it reflects onto percy. the book touches on it a lot, but i think rick really wanted to push percy's own internal struggles more obviously to the forefront for the show.
Percy references again and again how inattentive and zoned out he is constantly, and how he blames himself for being stuck in his own world. He feels crazy and misjudged by everyone around him just for having what everyone else presumes is a very active imagination, hyperactivity, and a brain that works differently. and when people do acknowledge his differences, even attempting to spin them positively to him, like Sally and "Mr. Brunner," it only makes him feel worse, because again the only thing they can tell him is that he's "special," inherently other, something he's come to associate with being an embarrassing and shameful thing, with Nancy calling him "special" as an insult. I've seen "special" thrown at nd kids as an insult by their peers over and over again since I was little. So Percy can't help but believe it's a negative thing, no matter what the adults that do support him in his life try to tell him, because it's been internalized that he's just different in a way that's bad and inferior, and that that there's a reason he's lonely and troubled and delinquent. Even if it was a positive thing, like Sally and "Mr. Brunner" insist to him, he feels inherently isolated and confused and wrong in the mortal world for being different, and like there's nothing that can change that or make him normal.
We see Percy break down in front of Sally after being expelled about how he's terrified something's irrevocably wrong inside him now. And his immediate reaction of rage and confusion when the only thing she can tell him, once again, is that he's special. And I think that is really going to resonate with a generation of nd people who've experienced these types of scenarios.

i was just talking to maisie about this but have we thought about the potential of mr reca removing unpleasant memories from your mind? not things from your past, because those things have made you who you are and who he fell in love with, but events that occur after you are his. i feel like that’s a fairly obvious notion given his abilities but aaaaaaah i just !!!!! think he would have such a hard time keeping his hands to himself and not tampering with your mind when you come to him exceptionally upset about something that happened.
he doesn’t expect it to affect him nearly as much or as hard as it does, but seeing his precious baby so unbelievably distraught over something (and what that something actually is—the severity of it—doesn’t fucking matter. what matters is that his little girl is upset and he must fix it) has a sudden, intense need clawing at his chest; an urgent desire that has sprouted talons and sharp, gnashing teeth and before he can even comprehend what he’s fucking doing, he’s soothing you by devouring that memory, burning it to ash, making sure it can never hurt you again.

reid's reaction when emily says "we missed your birthday" is so fucking. agh.
Tumblr media
he nods and smiles and then very quickly looks down.
TIME TO READ INTO IT WHOOOOO:
when they missed his birthday, he was like. "eh. it's fine. i'm thirty now, i don't need my friends to throw me a party. i'm an adult, i'm not upset about it."
especially because i'm sure reid didn't have a lot of awesome birthdays pre-series. i always got the impression he was mostly friendless until he joined the team, with ethan as the only exception (and in my heart they met and became friends in college, despite canon suggesting it was as young children). diana loved him and i'm sure she would have been lovely on his birthday, but i doubt she always remembered it (in the flashback to william leaving in 2x15 she doesn't know what day it is—i think it's very plausible that could happen on at least some of his birthdays) and if she did, she might not have been in the right headspace to celebrate it like she wanted.
(and even if she remembered and she was doing well, i really struggle to see any version of diana and spencer post-william leaving who wouldn't have had serious financial issues)
and then after spencer moves diana into assisted living (possibly on his birthday or at least close to it) he's mostly alone until he meets gideon. (again, except for ethan)
so, in summary: pre-bau spencer's birthdays were probably infrequently celebrated, and when they were celebrated, they were probably a lot less of a Big Deal than other peoples' were, for various reasons. so spencer spends about a decade growing used to not celebrating his birthday, then joins the bau and spends about a decade getting used to celebrating it, and then...they forget. not only do they forget, they forget the big three-oh.
so he tells himself not only that he's too old now to care about his birthday, but he spent so long not celebrating it anyway, and he's fine. it's fine.
and then emily finds out. and it's not fine. and he is upset about it.

My head is too full of sickness induced brain fog to say anything smart rn so...
Some interesting quotes from the forth book extras (English translation pages 216-217):
"At the beginning, it was purely to vent, and he wrote whatever and however he wanted. Though the stories were unbearably shitty, and even struggled to get monetized, he did manage to get good reviews from a niche crowd."
"The more he wrote, the more of a shut-in he became, and the more of a shut-in he became, the more he wrote. As a classic worthless otaku, the people with whom he had the best relationships and got along with most were all on the internet, oceans and seas apart. He basically didn’t have any friends like Mobei-Jun, and it would likely be very hard to find any again in the future.
Wait.
Mobei-Jun? A friend?
Since when had he started seeing Mobei-Jun as a “friend”?!"
Points of interest:
He started canonically started out as a emotional outlit for his struggles in life but then capitalism came knocking on historic and his creative outlet turned into what I would consider worse then a nine to five.
As he has no work-life balance whatsoever in ether life.
His life style became objectively less healthy as he became a shut in inorder to write enough PIDW to pay for his living expenses. It seems on some level he very much dislikes being a shut-in considering his worthless otaku comment but, yk, gotta do what you gotta do.
He, canonically, had close online friends. Wich is not only really endearing and relatable to a lot of readers but also amazing fanfiction material.
Discord AU on my dashboard due yesterday. Please and thank you.
Also his panicking about even thinking about MBJ as a.... Friend. Is silly and goofy and I love him.
So, conclusion,
I'm very sleepy
and very ill
and I very much need to put SQH I a blender with a bunch of rocks.

I don't know how to make this thought coherent, so bear with me people, but. I think ritsu calling shou "suzuki" instead of "suzuki-kun" says a lot about their relationship. ritsu is extremely consistent and polite with his use of honorifics, even with people he doesn't like that much (reigen is always reigen-san, for example)
but shou is always "suzuki," he never gets his proper honorific. this might be a stretch, but I think it fits into what I've thought about their relationship in the past, which is that shou gives ritsu the opportunity to drop the perfect kid act. him using everyone's polite honorifics might be good etiquette, but it also might be him creating distance between himself and others while wearing a polite mask. with shou, he doesn't need to bother with that. they met by beating the hell out of each other for fuck's sake, etiquette is out the window here
but while him dropping honorifics might be rude in other cases (the "NO HONORIFIC??" bit with hoshino in that one omake comes to mind) I don't think it is here. I'd forgotten until doing this reread, but ritsu refers to shou as his friend really easily. like, they've known each other for maybe a full day, and they were enemies before that, but when looking up at the cultural tower, he tells mob "my friend is up there!"
so I think him just calling him suzuki is actually a sign of him being close with shou. no bullshit, no using honorifics to maintain a polite image or to intimidate or to impress. he's just being direct with him, because shou isn't someone he has to put up a front around

I know many people see Obi-Wan as Anakin's dad, but he's a bit more like Shmi, isn't he? Like they both tell him about the value of letting go and live by their teachings (Shmi giving him up so he could have a better life/ Obi-Wan's entire relationship with Satine) and seem to hold the title of parent in Anakin's mind. Which is why his reaction on Mustafar was so explosive; if Obi-Wan disapproved of his choices, that meant that Shmi would have too and that drives him insane
Idk really know if this is correct
I mean, I don't think seeing Obi-Wan as a father figure and Obi-Wan being similar to Shmi are mutually exclusive things. If you remove the gender from it, it just means both of them are parental figures in Anakin's life. I feel like I've seen people positing that a lack of a paternal or maternal figure in Anakin's life at different points is what fucked him up or something, but this feels like bullshit to me.
I think Anakin does see them as SEPARATE, but obviously Shmi and Obi-Wan do both hold a similar place in his life and they have similar values. I think Anakin is someone who clings pretty hard to the people he loves and he DESPERATELY needs their approval. I think in this case, Obi-Wan is separate from Shmi in this, so on Mustafar it's not really that Obi-Wan's disapproval automatically means Shmi would've disapproved and it's SHMI'S disapproval that hurts. I think Obi-Wan's disapproval hurts ON ITS OWN because he cares about Obi-Wan's opinion regardless of any connection it may or may not have to Shmi.
I also think that Obi-Wan's opinion connects to how good of a JEDI Anakin is. Obi-Wan is a consummate Jedi, and if we take his word for it, Anakin sees Obi-Wan as the wisest and most powerful of all the Jedi. If Obi-Wan disapproves of him and his choices, it means Anakin isn't a good Jedi. And if he's not a good Jedi, perhaps he's not a good PERSON. We see Anakin sort-of fall apart over thinking he's not a good Jedi once in AOTC after the Tusken massacre, and then once in ROTS over murdering Dooku, so we know that being "a good Jedi" matters to him to some degree. If he isn't a good Jedi, then what's left? He's wrapped his entire identity and self worth around being a Jedi in a lot of ways, it's part of why he can't just walk away from it in order to be with Padme instead. He HAS to have both.
And by Mustafar, Anakin is fully in delusion land and is just straight-up lying to himself because he's gone beyond a point of no return and he knows it but can't truly ACCEPT IT. Facing Obi-Wan means facing a particular truth about what he's done that he wasn't actually prepared to face (presumably he would've just thought Obi-Was would die along with everyone else and he'd never see Obi-Wan again). But now Obi-Wan is here, this person he'd loved and who had loved him and who he betrayed in the worst possible way, and he has to actually ANSWER FOR WHAT HE'S DONE. So facing Obi-Wan's disapproval also means facing his own guilt, something Anakin never ever wants to do.
So, yeah, I think Obi-Wan's disapproval means a lot all on its own and it doesn't NEED a connection to Shmi to make it mean something to Anakin. I think Obi-Wan's place in his life as a parental figure definitely adds some weight to his opinion, especially in the absence of Shmi herself and Anakin's desire to find a replacement for that relationship in his life, but I don't think that that's the whole or even the main reason why Anakin's reaction to him on Mustafar is the way it is.

Thinking about how Wonder Woman in the Pérez run/early 87 series really needed a secret identity. (Stick with me here!) Now, this isn't something that as a reader i would want (I've never had much interest in "Diana Prince") or that would be helpful for Diana's mission, and I actively think a true secret id would be something Diana would dislike immensely and hate to use and maintain. But I honestly think having one, at least at a limited level, would have saved Diana and her loved ones SO much pain down the road. Because while they loved Diana, her presence in their live brought so many villains back to their home which in turn hurt the people she cared about
Like I just think about all the horrible things that the Kapetelises (especially Vanessa, she was used as such a punching bag) went through just by virtue of loving Diana... Its truly awful the unintended consequences that came with loving her and taking her into their home, just because everyone knew she was Wonder Woman. Like this was very public knowledge, they were on the news all the time and newspaper and magazine covers and everything together
Which while cool still was damaging! I mean Nessie was in MIDDLE SCHOOL of all places and everyone knew she was hosting Diana. It was shown that whether or not most people at school wanted to be around her directly and saw her as interesting or desirable depended directly on Diana and if she was in town with them! And that's really just the tip of the iceberg there with Vanessa but she was put under so much pressure and given such awful conceptions of herself through her peers knowing she was close with Diana.
It's just such a mess. And like I don't think a secret identity would be something that she would ever think of having realistically at this point, especially because she's so new, and there isn't a strong and visible need for one, (and her public identity as ww was already attached to her loved ones) but I do think that many things may have turned out better for the Kapetelises later if they were publically joined by Diana Deneiros, Julia's niece from Greece, as opposed to Wonder Woman

A solar eclipse happened on the day the Empires SMP members returned to their server through the rift, when HC!Pearl remembered that she was Saint Pearl, because that’s the moment the moon aligned just right with the sun
HC!Pearl (and in extension, Traffic Life!Pearl) is the moon, not only due to the fact that it’s literally in her name, but because the moon crashed into the same season she joined, ending it
Empires!Pearl is the sun, as sunflowers follow her, leaving a trail even though she’s not on the server anymore. She is a goddess of the sun and harvest, bringing hope to those who need it
So, the moment she remembers her past identities, it’s just the right moment for the moon to obscure the sun’s light, representing that even though on the surface, she’s HC!Pearl, the light of her past shimmers through
Pearl, separately, is both symbolic of the sun and the moon, but the moment she knows, she is the eclipse.

Saw your tag saying FSM haters come fight you. Here I am! Frankly I'm not so much of a hater as I am just of the opinion "wow this guy sure Started All This Shit" but I'm absolutely willing to hear your view of the matter if you're willing to share! Love some Friendly Fandom Discourse (it's healthy tbh) come at me bro 👊 👊 👊
HI LOL.... my personal opinion is that the FSM gets a lot of hate for similar reasons to wu (which i also think are unjustified but that's a different post). like you said he gets a lot of the blame put on him for starting everything that's to come in the show, but i don't really feel like he intended to do any harm.
the FSM was born into a war. when he was still a very young child, he was forced to choose one side of himself, of his family, and destroy the other. and so he ran away. but this world he runs to is chaotic and dangerous. and so again, he is forced to fight for the right to live in peace along with the inhabitants of this world.
but even in this new world, he wasn't safe: the oni followed him, determined to bring him back to fight for them. and after them, the overlord. his whole life, especially when he was younger, he had been fighting, or running from forces that aimed to destroy him.
i believe the FSM was incredibly paranoid throughout his life, worrying that at any moment everything would be ripped away from him. this can be seen in how secretive he was, how much of his history is hidden away. the mech used to win the war against the overlord was sealed away where it could never be found. he granted elemental powers to select people to help keep him safe. even in his death, he hid away, in a place that even wu could not find.
this paranoia carries on through his sons. he taught them both to fight, to protect themselves, when they were also very young. one of the earliest moments we see of them is them fighting with swords! and though he loves them, they are not immune to his secrecy, or his fears. when they steal the scrolls and enter the serpentine territory, he never fully trusts them again. when garmadon gets bitten and starts to turn to evil, he's desperate to cure him. and i don't fully believe that the FSM intended to make garmadon feel broken or "wrong"... just that his fear has so consumed him at this point that he can't see the damage he's doing to his children.
it's also worth noting that despite garmadon's corruption, the FSM never truly hated him. he was left to protect the golden weapons alongside wu, he recieved the same protective enchanted gi, and was left the same clues to find him after his death. it's just that garmadon was unable to see this through the corruption (which is another post).
perhaps all he did was to protect his sons. that seems to be how wu sees it, at least. because wu repeats this same behaviour with the ninja, even if unintentionally. he brings these kids into a war because that happened to him, and his father before him. maybe he doesn't even realise it's wrong. he hides things from them not only because because he's ashamed of his past (again, another post lol), but because his father always hid things from him. it protects wu, but it also protects the ninja.
i don't believe the FSM was a flawless person. hes one of many grey characters in ninjago, and to boil down everything he did to "good" or "bad" is a disservice. maybe you see him as someone who only ever ran from problems instead of truly solving them, maybe you see him as a cruel and neglectful father. and maybe those are both true. but he's also someone who always tried to fight for peace, for himself and everyone in ninjago, and someone who truly loved his sons, despite the damage he did to them both.
so that's who i think the FSM was. an immortal, all powerful godlike being, yes, but also a scared child who just wanted to live peacefully, and would do anything to prevent another war. and maybe he is, in some way, indirectly responsible for every bad thing in the show, but i think this is more of an after-effect of the countless wars and conflict. he did the best he could, and considering all he went through, i think he did alright.

do you have any thoughts on why Morgan said Giselle wasn’t her real mom? that scene felt odd to me because she never expressed missing her biological mom before this
I don't think it had anything to do with missing her biological mom, because I don't think Morgan (or anyone in the family) ever thinks about that woman.
for Morgan, it's clear to me that she's struggling with that fact that her parents had another child, and that this one is actually biologically related to Giselle. She loves her sister, of course, and I think they're very close despite their age gap, but you can see by the way her face falls when Giselle says, "you're a true daughter of Andalasia" that she's upset about this on some level.
you can also see that she's very quick to hide her feelings by one, looking at her phone, and two, spitting out a sarcastic remark ("okay, well, if you don't have a wand for a fake daughter of Andalasia, I'm gonna go change.")
the reason she lashed out at Giselle, I think, is because she's not good at expressing her feelings properly so she results to anger, and because she's kind of trying to build a wall between herself and her mother. that may sound like a stretch, but hear me out, hear me out !!
I wrote a fic (which you can read here if you'd like, it's not that long) and I particularly like this snippet from Morgan's chapter:
And where, exactly, did that leave her? How different would things be now that her mom had a child that was actually related to her? She’d never really thought much about the technicalities of their relationship before, because Giselle had always been her mother. But ever since the news dropped, Morgan couldn’t help but start to see herself as nothing more than leftovers from a failed marriage.
and this
Morgan felt Giselle squeeze her hand, and a lump began to form in her chest. She wanted nothing more than to ask what this meant for her, for their relationship. If it would change anything, or if her mother saw her differently now. But asking that meant facing reality, and she wasn’t quite sure she was ready for that just yet.
the way I see it, Morgan was scared that Giselle would start to view her differently, that their relationship would drastically change, and instead of waiting to be pushed away, she started pushing first.
and we know that Giselle doesn't see Morgan differently, that Morgan has been her daughter basically since the moment they met, but Morgan? she's still scared. she's only 14 when her mom gets pregnant. she's scared, and anxious, and probably creating a million and one horrible scenarios in her mind, and starting to feel like an outsider in her own home.
and yes, she could easily just tell her parents how she's feeling, but she's 14 !! then 15, then 16. Robert could barely express himself at 30, you think Morgan can?? she's her father's daughter in nearly every way, of course she bottles things up.
it's also worth noting that, in the junior novel, she tells Nancy that she fully believes Giselle doesn't like her anymore, that she liked her better when she was younger. and when Nancy tells her that isn't true, she doesn't believe her. and we know that she doesn't see herself as Giselle's ~true daughter~ because she says so towards the end of the movie. like Morgan is truly going through it.
and like I said, because she doesn't know how to properly express herself, and because she's scared, she builds up walls around herself, and pushes people out before they have the chance to push her away.
we also know that she was upset about the fact that they had to move, all her clothes got burned (resulting in her wearing clothes she wasn't comfortable in), she had to sleep on the floor of her parents bedroom, she was ignored all day at her new school, and on top of all that, Giselle embarrassed her twice in front of everyone.
she had good intentions, of course, we know (and Morgan knows) that Giselle meant no harm, but there was a lot of anger, and sadness building up in Morgan at this point, and I think she finally just. exploded. and unfortunately, that led her to saying what she said during that fight.
I think she immediately regretted it as soon as the words left her mouth, and I have no doubt in my mind that she was going to apologize that next morning, but then, well, the whole Wish™️ thing happened and everything changed.
anyway,,, does this make sense? am I reaching with some of this idk this is just how I interpreted it 🙈

nah cuz I’m still thinking about this there’s so many potential villain arcs for the ninjago cast
Kai easy, he defects from the ninja to try and be the green ninja kinda like morro, or got corrupted by Chen’s staff, got corrupted by the staff of forbidden spinjitsu, etc
I literally just detailed Jay’s on another post but Evil Pirate, went apeshit after Seabound, becomes a virus/corrupted/game master in Prime Empire, sooo much villain jay
Cole being stuck under the control of the hypnotizing snakes, Cole being corrupted and used by the evil skull from master of the mountain, not as many options for Cole but still verrrry good ones
Zane already has the ice emperor but no one thinks about!! A Zane that has remnants of the Overlord within him!! A Zane that died and came back WRONG because of it!!! I’ve only seen maybe one person play with this concept and it’s a travesty because it’s amazing
And Lloyd. Hoo boy Lloyd. So many options. A Lloyd raised by Garmadon, a Lloyd that truly did take over the snakes, a Lloyd that stayed at Darkley’s and became a villain, a Lloyd that went apeshit over his destiny, so many evil lloyds

I see neji being like possessive of others in ships x reader whatever do you think he would be possessive of naruto cause i honestly do not see it really same for the jealousy on what the other anon said on a different ask can't see it
Ooo I had to think about this one for a bit, I'll be honest. And while I think Neji wouldn't be the type to be overly possessive in a toxic manner (esp. not in a way that causes him to take it out on his s/o), I can see him having bare hint of such.
So for him that lil possessive streak is more inline to like how cats may act. Like how they kinda glance at other new cats or kittens their owner might like? Yea that seems a bit like a Neji thing to me.
He's the kind of dude to walk up to his partner and link an arm around his and either stand there or immediately offer to take Naruto somewherehe knows the blonde would like (as a way to stake a claim and to sort of reassure himself) if he saw someone making a serious pass at Naruto for whatever reason. Realistically tho, most of the time Neji would be side-eyeing because you cannot tell me bro wouldn't give the biggest side eye to anyone flirting with his partner.
But again, it isn't done in a manner that makes it overly-possessive behavior. It's more of Neji acting on the fact ppl having the audacity to flirt with his partner in front of him. I mean Naruto would probably also find something funny all of this because of the fact it's coming from NEJI of all people.
BUT but I sort of lean to the side of believing this to be sort of like a newer or mid-relationship sort of deal. Esp. around the point Neji is learning to let himself be a bit more open emotionally and not shut everyone away from him. By the time the two of em are later along in their relationship, I can't see Neji acting on that lil feeling anymore; by now he's been beyond self assured that nothin gonna happen.
