#humans are messy

[ballpower981]

I am human, and I think that’s so fascinating. I’m this sentient made up of muscle, fat, bone, cartilage, blood, and so much more, all controlled by a conscience, the only thing separating me from a rock, or a feather.

I’m made up of so many cells and atoms and nerves that would take millions of lifetimes to count. But just because I’m so complex doesn’t mean I’m perfect. I’m far from it, actually.

Human beings are imperfect on principle. We’re messy, to put it simply. We have messy feelings, emotions, thoughts, actions. Hell, there’s not a single thing on earth that is perfect because humans are so messy. It’s subjective.

The human body isn’t perfect at all. If you slot your fingers together, they don’t all align perfectly, do they? Sure, there are a few rules when it comes to anatomy, like the structure of one’s face, or the length of your foot being the same as your forearm, but that’s all because of genetic patterns.

If you add blue to blue, you just get blue. If you add one person with “right” proportions to another person with “right” proportions, you get a kid with “right” proportions.

Even when there is a variation, chances are, if you look back into the gene pool (which is so complex that I don’t even have the TIME to type out), you’ll find that same variation. And when the variation is out of nowhere, it’s still always for a super complicated reason.

Humans are so messy and complex and interesting, that seeing people dumb ourselves down to a “bag of flesh and bones” is almost offensive. We’re so much more. Physically and emotionally.

We have sentience, we’re mortal, we’re conscious. Those things are the only thing that separates us from cats, gods, or objects. We have the ability to create and have ideas.

And the crazy thing is, despite there being +8billion people on earth, not a single one of us is the same as another. Some of us may share faces, but our consciousness is purely ours. No two people are the exact same.

I love being human, even when I hate it, because that means I have the ability, the sentience to hate. To love. And I love being human.

Like idk but-- something about how Laios is never once portrayed as desirable in the traditional way really gets to me. The entire series is about every kind of desire and how people deal with it, but as for the main character?? Sexually?? Romantically?? Not one single person. (There was that one auxiliary character but she was after his favor as team leader/perceived birth status, though he actually ran away from it all.)

There are even several jokes about how undesirable he is from a sexual/romantic standpoint. And while yes that does have some aroace flavor to it, given that he (in the show/manga anyway) shows no interest in romance or sex himself, so of course he wouldn't try to be appealing that way, I find it comforting from just-- a general standpoint??

Like that an author sat down and wrote a main character that's just plain awkward and unattractive in-universe, noticed, joked about sometimes (after all it is a comedy series), but the character himself is never ever The Joke, Laios is always shown as worth it. Worth watching. Worth knowing.

He's socially inept, the only reason he even shaves and cuts his hair is because he doesn't want to look like his father, he doesn't even care about romance let alone have the skills to be a good partner, and just... so what?? The story never asks us why. He just is.

He's the main character, he's himself. His story is worth telling, screw the love interest sideplot. It's worth seeing through.

He's enough.

"But the great hoax is that they are Platonic forms — the real reduced beyond recognition into the ideal, an ideal too narrow and symmetry-bound to account for the spacious, uneven, gloriously shambolic reality of being what we are."

Your human! Alastor...

I'm looking respectfully 👁️👄👁️

Lmao Glad you like my version of a gremlin son. Couldn't miss the opportunity to play with the 1920–30s fashion✨

[ID: A digital illustration of Orym from Critical Role. He is drawn very small, floating in the middle of the image. His body is made of plants and he is shielding his eyes with his hand as a bright light shoots towards his face. Around him are messy drawings of snarling wolves, two hands made of plants intertwining, human mouths screaming and bearing teeth, bones and teeth, a green eye crying, Ruidus, and flowers. End description.]

A hunger you cannot fathom, a screaming you fail to recognise as your own

thinking about how the (greek) big three swore to never sire any more demigod children because those children are just too powerful (dangerous) and also thinking about how the characters that, arguably, seem to have the greatest proclivity for cruelty in the name of justice or vengeance are also the (greek) big three children... there's something there, a connection to be made I'm sure of it

not them having a fucking showdown about which one of them was more devoted to the other………… not them making it a fucking competition and a fucking argument which one of them is more down bad horrendous for the other and STILL they havent had their realisation in the dead of night/day while lying in their bed/coffin that the other has feelings for them

You said that none of Timmy family and friends noticed he's been replaced with Chimmy Changa. Could this imply that his enemies might notice something is up? Either:

1. Timmy's been acting weird I GOTTA figure out what's going on. (Crooker? DINKLEBURGGGGG!)

2. This brat isn't fun to threaten/torture Imma find a new target (Vicki, France?)

But these are humans. Would his non-humans allies/enemies notice? Mark Chang, Dark Laser, Gary?

[This is a 2-part ask. The Art Above is related to 2/2]

Enemies? Who would have beef with a 10 year old kid?? Besides his own parents, that is.

Dark Laser and Gary were originally wishes. When Timmy became a fairy, he converted all of his unwishes into his changeling, so they no longer have corporal forms. They're just energy to keep his changeling functional.

Honestly, your humanized version of hazbin characters is

FABULOUS!! (Would love to see more !!)

Awww, I'm flattered🙏 For now I've made human designs only for Alastor & Mimzy (well, and one sketch for Rosie's) for my comic purposes. Blorbos go first, you know. But if you want to see someone specifically, I'm open to suggestions✨
