Prompt 297
ā€œI feel like we should be concerned about Tim.ā€Ā 
ā€œHonestly we should always be concerned about him, but what made you realize it this time?ā€Ā 
ā€œHave you seen his search history- wait no you havenā€™t you havenā€™t been in the cave all day, look at this-ā€
ā€œ...'Is it legal to adopt the ghost of a kid? Can someone call CPS on a familyā€™s ghost? How to take care of ghosts 101? How do you get a ghost of a child to not be scared? What to do if you find ghost children in your home? What the fuckā€¦?ā€Ā 
ā€œExactly, I think he needs an intervention.ā€Ā 
Or in other words, after getting thrown into another dimension thanks to the GIW destroying most of Amity, a trio of ghost children decide to crash in this seemingly abandoned apartment building. No one seems to live here anywayā€¦ Tim Drake on the other hand, gets a notification that thereā€™s someone in his main safehouse that he mightā€™ve slightly forgotten about thanks to having his house-boat now, and sees a trio of starved looking ghost kids

Hi, my name is Ella, and I have had a constant headache for 14 years. I am 26 years old. Painkillers do not work.
I need Pineal Cyst Removal Surgery if I am ever to experience a pain free day again.
I cannot afford the surgery but it would drastically improve my quality of life.
I am suicidally depressed because of my chronic pain.
Can people please reblog this so that it can get traction?

everything about Gavriil feels suffocating.
how his presence alone can be almost overwhelming, how his massive body cages you everytime without a chance to escape. you wouldn't dare to try anyway, knowing that you don't even have a say against a creature of his caliber. he will find you. in your dreams, in your nightmares. in your room.
how he will be intense and vague about everything just for the sake of it; to confuse you further, to see the conflict of emotions in your eyes merge with arousal. eventually your hesitance turns into acceptance, a desperate need to feel his hands all over you. and he will be oh so grateful to fulfill that desire.
how his thick tongue pushes past your lips and into your mouth, reaching almost the back of your throat, relishing in the muffled little sounds you make. your drool mixed with his saliva drips down your chin, and your hazy eyes look up at him when he finally pulls away, giving you a second to breathe.
how his hips are slamming into you relentlessly, your wetness and lack of resistance allowing him to move almost effortlessly. forced to hold onto him for dear life instead of pushing away. all of your morals and principles are being tossed out of the window every single time he comes to you. he has you where he wants you, and will not stop until he feels like you can't take it anymore.
and how in the morning he vanishes away, leaving you guessing: was it just another wet dream? but the cold stickiness between your legs tells you more than you need to know.

Oracle!Tim has a wheelchair, but hates using it. He loudly insists he doesnā€™t need to when almost anyone suggests it. He can get around just fine on crutches, and itā€™s bad enough the way people treat him like that; he refuses to have them literally looking down on him.
Except, see, the thing isā€¦ he does need it. By the end of the day navigating on his crutches, Tim hurts. His back is screaming from the shoulders down, his spine feels almost swollen with how it takes over his senses (burning, throbbing, every click & grind of bone like having a knife wedged between the vertebrae,) the skin on his legs feels like itā€™s trying to crawl off his body, and thereā€™s sharp needles of pain shooting through his leg muscles. If Tim spends the day on his feet/moving around a lot on his crutches, heā€™s going to spend the next 3 nights trying to be Oracle while flat on his back on the floor. (Tim does try to get around this by having wheelie chairs in all his offices and just not walking around much, but if the weather turns cold or a big storm blows in, even that wonā€™t help.)
He gets better about it over time. Cass drags Tim into helping with her specific charity work, helping other disabled kids in Gotham. Tim ends up giving interviews in which he talks about being an ambulatory wheelchair user, how heā€™s treated when he goes out in the chair, how people act like itā€™s all a horrible lie if they ever see him get up from it, and how it combines with Timā€™s own pride & internalized ableism to lead to him gritting his teeth and just pushing through. ā€œItā€™s not worth it,ā€ he tells Vicki Vale, a rueful smile on his face. ā€œItā€™s never worth it, to go home and lay on the floor in too much pain to move, just so the people at the grocery store donā€™t see me in my chair. But I do it anyway, and Iā€™m probably going to keep doing itā€¦ so if you see me out in public, please ask me if Iā€™m being stupid, because thereā€™s a good chance the answer is yes.ā€ People laugh. Vicki calls him brave for talking about it. Tim says if he can raise just a little attention, make people a little more aware of how they treat people in (and out) of wheelchairs, heā€™ll have done something good.
Then he goes home. Lays on the floor. And tries not to cry while one of his loved ones rubs tiger balm into his back, because no, people donā€™t understand, it fucking hurts.

age of calamity prompt: mipha and link post water & fire mission? šŸ‘€
With all his strength, training, and the benefits of youth, there were few times Link truly ever felt absolutely exhausted. It had happened far more frequently in the last year, what with all the monster attacks making everyone feel like they were in all out war.
But now that war had actually arrived, Link learned a new level of exhaustion, born from a worry so deep in his heart and soul that he didnā€™t even know what to do with it.
When Ganon had taken control of all the technology theyā€™d worked so hard to learn and utilize, it had been such a defilement that Linkā€™s blood had boiled with rage while his heart froze with fear. His, Zeldaā€™s, and Impaā€™s determination helped them push through, of course, and heā€™d hardly had time to truly register any of his emotions once theyā€™d started moving once more.
He remembered the heart stopping terror as the initial realization hit him though. He remembered feeling his breath utterly stolen away in a dread, a knowledge that the capital was falling, he and Zelda were in danger, his family was in danger, the Champions were trappedā€”that Mipha was trapped, and, for one moment, he thought he was absolutely powerless to do anything about it.
But he wasnā€™t powerless. Theyā€™d gotten there in time, theyā€™d saved Mipha.
But it had been close. Hylia, it had been close. Sheā€™d looked absolutely exhausted - if it hadnā€™t been for Terrakoā€™s magic, for that manā€”Sidon, he reminded himself, marveling at how the little fledgling could turn into such a massive Zoraā€”then Mipha would haveā€¦ would haveā€¦
Sheā€™d barely had the words to even acknowledge him when heā€™d finally gotten there. And heā€™d had to rush off to save Daruk as well.
Now that all the Champions were safe, Link felt himself on the verge of collapse. Zelda was trying to rest, instead worrying and mourning. Link felt awful for her - despite all the lives theyā€™d saved, after all, sheā€™d still lost her father. Linkā€™s own father had barely escaped Castle Town and was recovering.
But now their friends were together once more, Divine Beasts ready for a counterattack. They were all impatient to do so much, to fight back now, even Link, willing to push through his exhaustion and end this.
There was no way they could fight right at this moment, though. Even Link couldnā€™t. But what he did want to do was check on Mipha. Heā€™d been with Zelda, trying to keep her company, and with his father, but his heart was aching and worrying for the Zora princess as well.
After all she wasā€¦ she was his friend.
Goddess, he couldnā€™t really lie to himself anymore. She was far more than a friend to him, and heā€™d almost lost her.
Link dragged his feet towards the palace. Of the four locations theyā€™d helped free from Ganonā€™s hold, Zoraā€™s Domain was the most fortified and therefore the safest, so it is where the majority of them were staying to recover until they could plan things out better in the morning. Mipha had been whisked away by her people upon exiting Van Ruta, and Link hadnā€™t seen her since.
He was allowed easy access to the palace, having visited Mipha multiple times and befriended her family (or, really, King Dorephan had essentially adopted him, he was so charismatically extroverted). The older Prince Sidon was excitedly talking to the king, missing Link entirely for he moment and giving him a chance to sneak into Miphaā€™s room.
He knocked, clearing his throat nervously (he wanted to see her, genuinely, but going to her bedroom seemedā€¦ inappropriate). Initially he heard nothing, and he worried a little more, cracking the door and calling her name softly. Silence was the answer, and he finally peeked around the door to see an empty room.
Where was she? Her family wasnā€™t distressed at all, so she couldnā€™t be in worse shape than he thought, right? Did they even know she wasnā€™t in here?
Link walked into the room quietly, closing the door behind him, examining everything. Miphaā€™s jewelry was on her little vanity - she always wore it when she went out, unlessā€¦
The one time Link saw her without her jewelry was when theyā€™d agreed to sneak out at night - sheā€™d commented that at the least, the headdress was too noisy for such a venture.
Wait. Surely she didnā€™tā€¦
Narrowing his eyes, Link moved towards the window by the shallow waters where she likely rested. Looking out, he could just make out the area theyā€™d designated for triaging the injured.
He had a funny feeling he knew where she was. Link climbed out of the window, crawling along the side of the palace so he could avoid scrutiny, and then hastily made his way back to the medical encampment. He saw a flesh of red, and he followed it toā€¦
His fatherā€™s bed. Where Mipha sat, hands glowing, slowly working on healing his wounds. For his part, Linkā€™s father was fast asleep, having been just as exhausted as everyone else - it was why Link had gone to be with Zelda and comfort her, as heā€™d felt fairly useless hovering anxiously over the man.
Mipha seemed to notice the scrutiny and glanced up, jumping, startled. ā€œLink!ā€
He was relieved to see her on her feet, so relieved. After their last encounterā€”goddess, she looked so much better.
But she was still tired. So, inevitably, the first thing out of his mouth was, ā€œWhy arenā€™t you resting?ā€
He wanted to kick himself. He should be thanking her for looking after his father, asking her how sheā€™s feeling instead of just scolding her.
But he was scared, tired, and angry too - why didnā€™t Mipha ever let herself get a break?
The entire situation was crashing down on him, and he didnā€™t know wha to do with all the emotions he was feeling. He didnā€™t want to take them out on Mipha, though, so he tried to keep his mouth shut and was nearly mortified to instead feel his eyes stinging with tears of frustration.
The magic glowing over his father subsided, and Mipha hugged herself a little insecurely. ā€œIā€¦ Iā€™d already been unable to assist any of the other Champions. I was resting, Link, but when I saw so many injured coming in, I knew the others would need help.ā€
ā€œYou were unable to help because youā€™d almost died,ā€ Link argued, his voice shaking. ā€œEveryone almost died.ā€
Mipha swallowed, easily reading how close Link was to falling apart. She clearly was shaken as wellā€”he could only imagine what it felt like to have been so close to death. He saw his friend bite her lip uncertainly, hands wringing in front of her. ā€œT-they did. Iā€¦ Link, I promisedā€¦ I promised Iā€™d protect you, and I almost failed.ā€
Link felt his breath get stolen away. Sheā€¦ he didnā€™t know what to say, only that he wanted to tell her over and over that this wasnā€™t somehow her fault.
ā€œI knew,ā€ Mipha continued quietly, and now her own voice shook. ā€œIā€¦ I figured I would be the weakest Champion. I was prepared to die if it was to happen. Butā€¦ Iā€¦ā€
Mipha sniffled, inhaling steadily to try and calm herself, closing her eyes. Link moved towards her in an instant, dragging her into a hug.
His mind and heart were screaming.
What kind of thing was that to say - I figured I would be the weakest Champion, was prepared to dieā€”had Mipha truly expected not to survive the encounter with Ganon? Yet sheā€™d pushed forward anyway, had promised to protect and heal Linkā€”
He didnā€™t know what to say, what to do, how to feel. He was horrified and terrified and felt so awful for her, he wanted to hold her for the rest of his life and tell her over and over that she had done nothing wrong, that she was an incredible fighter, that he would protect her. Mipha was trembling in his arms, crying quietly, finally letting her own stress out, and Link found himself crying too.
Words came forth before he knew what he was saying, genuine and raw and desperate to be heard. ā€œI love you.ā€
Miphaā€™s sniffles turned to outright sobs, and she slid her arms around him. Link rested his head atop hers, cheek pressed against smooth scales, tears slowly sliding downward.
ā€œLink, Iā€”Iā€™m s-sorryā€”ā€
Please donā€™t be.
ā€œWeā€™re at w-warā€”and Iā€”ā€
ā€œI know,ā€ he whispered.
He let her cry for a while longer, he let himself cry. He was too drained to figure out how to proceed, to worry about protocol or anything of the sort. He just wanted to be with her, to comfort her and let her hold him in return. He wanted this nightmare to be over, and for a moment, it was just them.
As their tears slowed, the pair slowly, hesitantly pulled apart.
Mipha spoke first, trying to get a hold of herself. ā€œThank youā€¦ thank you for saving me on Vah Ruta.ā€
Goddess, did she even need to thank him for such a thing? He countered, ā€œThank you for healing me so many times, for always being there. Iā€¦ Mipha, Iā€™ll always protect you. I promise.ā€
Mipha watched him a moment, smiling as a blush stained her white cheeks red. She looked down at her hands, suddenly seeming to remember her usually far more shy nature. ā€œDidā€¦ did you mean itā€¦?ā€
Link blinked, confused. ā€œMeanā€”why wouldnā€™t I meanā€”ā€
ā€œO-oh, no!ā€ Mipha interrupted, waving her hands. ā€œI meanā€”I know you would protect me, Link, weā€™re friends after all, and youā€™re a Hero andā€”ā€
Oh. He knew what she was asking.
Ofā€¦ of course he meant it. Heā€™d justā€¦ been not addressing it. Becauseā€¦ wellā€¦
Theyā€™d been friends when they were children. And heā€™d liked her a lot then too. More than any of the other Zora. He was attracted to her kindness, her compassionate heart, her silliness and desire to help. Before his little mind and heart knew what such a love was, he already loved her. Now that they were both older, that feeling had matured, andā€¦
Link swallowed, grabbing hold of his courage. ā€œYes. I meant it. I love you.ā€
His words derailed Miphaā€™s stuttered rambling. The silence gave him an opportunity to continue, saying, ā€œYouā€™re not weak. You gave that blight everything you had. Youā€™re an excellent fighter.ā€
ā€œLinkā€¦ā€ she muttered, clearly unsure what to say, but then she giggled, bubbly and emotional as it was, her eyes glistening with tears. ā€œIā€¦ā€
Link suddenly felt insecure, suddenly felt like maybe he shouldnā€™t quite have said everything he had. But heā€™dā€¦ she deserved to be comforted, if nothing else. But maybe he shouldnā€™t have saidā€¦
ā€œI love you too,ā€ Mipha finally replied.
ā€¦Oh. Oh.
Oh.
Did heā€¦ did sheā€¦ theyā€¦
She actually said it?!
Mipha having some sort of strong feelings for Link had been somewhat apparent for a little while now. Her tripping over herself around him had been downright endearing, honestly. But given that sheā€™d never admitted it, Link had figured it was because it was entirely inappropriate, or that perhaps her feelings were not the same as his. But herā€”she actuallyā€”
Heā€¦ he really wanted to kiss her. Instead, he just felt himself blush.
A heavy sigh resounded from behind them, and both teenagers nearly jumped out of their skin.
Whirling, they turned to see Abel staring at them under heavy lidded eyes, looking exhausted and exasperated at the same time.
ā€œPapa!ā€ Link gasped, rushing to his fatherā€™s side, and Mipha was quick on his heels. ā€œAre you alright?ā€
ā€œIā€™m about as well as you appear to be,ā€ his father replied, and he could sense the judgment from the man. He sucked in a cheek and bit on it, sheepish at being called out, but it wasnā€™t as if heā€™d had a chance to rest quiet yet. Heā€™d wanted to check on Mipha, and then all this had happened.
ā€œIā€™m so sorry, Sir Abel, I didnā€™t finish healing your wounds,ā€ Mipha hastily said, moving to the other side of the bed to get a better view.
ā€œYour Highness, thatā€™s unnecessary,ā€ Abel waved her off as respectfully as he could in his state. ā€œI appreciate your singular resolve to heal everyone - you are a good person, and a testament to the Zoraā€™s compassion. But Iā€¦ have a favor to ask of Your Highness, if youā€™ll allow me this.ā€
ā€œYes, of course,ā€ Mipha nodded eagerly, putting a hand on his shoulder. It was an automatic gesture, born from a kind heart, always eager to soothe, even if it was a little odd for her to be doing it to the seasoned knight. ā€œWhat is it?ā€
ā€œRest,ā€ Abel replied. It was disguised as a request, kind and gentle, but there was the slightest heaviness to his tone, one that Link knew intimately. This was a command, in the only way that the quiet knight could offer to a princess far above his station.
Mipha swallowed, mirroring Linkā€™s sheepish reaction, and let out a small laugh. ā€œA-ah. Well. Iā€”I suppose I could use a little more rest, but the othersā€”perhaps I can do so after I helpā€”ā€
ā€œYou would be disregarding my request, then, princess,ā€ Abel noted carefully.
Miphaā€™s mouth snapped shut. Link almost laughed - his father got her.
Heā€™d have to remember that trick
Sighing heavily in defeat, Mipha bowed her head. ā€œWell, Iā€”yes. Iā€™ll justā€”Iā€™ll go back to the palace, then. Sir Abel, Iā€”Iā€™m sorry I wasnā€™t able to heal you fully before I go, but Iā€”ā€
ā€œMipha,ā€ Link interrupted pleadingly. ā€œPlease, donā€™t be sorry. Youā€™ve done more than enough, I promise.ā€
His dear friend watched him before smiling gently, genuinely, lovingly. He smiled back at her, heart warming. They exchanged a quiet promise to continue their conversation later, and Mipha excused herself.
Abel sighed heavily again. Link glanced at him, worried. ā€œPapa?ā€
ā€œYou two are ridiculous,ā€ his father grumbled. ā€œIf Tilieth had been just as shy as me, you would have never been born.ā€
Link felt his cheeks scald with heat. ā€œP-Papa!ā€
His father didnā€™t comment further, respecting his privacy, but he did yank him into a hug, holding him hostage in the bed with him until the Hero of Hyrule settled in his embrace. Zoraā€™s Domain quieted as evening came, and everyone settled in to rest for the war to come.
Despite the dread hanging in the air, Link smiled, feeling lighter than he had in ages, heart full as Miphaā€™s words repeated in his mind, as he was safe in his fatherā€™s embrace.
I love you too.

god almighty (non-religious), i wish i wasn't low empathy. it sucks so much when a friend is not okay but you can't find the right script for how to handle that right now and you can't make yourself care as much as you feel you should. maybe if i was less tired and generally depressed myself, or if there was an active problem that could be solved, then i could actually figure out what to say. i can listen to venting fine, but i'm not about to promp it or anything because i don't really know if it's prying or prompting sometimes.
like, darling, i don't mean to just not answer you but you're clearly in a bad mood and not lending yourself to a normal conversation structure because of it, and i don't know what to say so i'm not saying a damn thing. sorry you aren't doing well, i wish you were and stuff, but i also don't naturally have the pieces that make me able to respond to that shit so i've elected to simply not.

I know a sorta made a small post along these lines the other day, but something a lil more official of!!
im kinda broke rn, between the recent stuff with losing my car and having to get a new one and work literally scheduling me 13 hrs a week. Im slowly losing money and it got really bad this month after paying my bills and everything and realizing I had just 300 bucks in my bank account.
My current job hasn't been working with me to give me the hours i need to make a living wage and iv been trying to get a new job for months with no success and it's looking like i could really use a lil extra support via online commission work rn until I can land a more solid paying job. I really hate to sound like a desperate wet cardboard box beast but I still need to insure my new car and cant afford it as i stand right now.
I wont ask for donations, I think im going to be fine, but a lil money to help keep my head above the water would be great so im just gonna promo my commission work. To anyone who can commission me in some way or another would be awesome! I appreciate any support I can get rn even just a reblog

HANā€™S INFODUMPING ABOUT JAY... START!!!!
so like sgdkdhdkdhd I say Jay and Lloyd are my ā€œfavoritesā€ but honestly itā€™s so hard to pick favorites out of this skittles squad like I love EVERY character for a variety of different reasons. I was going to also infodump about Lloyd but then I started talking about Prime Empire and then this post got. Long. So. it's just Jay I may infodump about Lloyd another day especially since I'm very Conduit Brained Rn but yea yea!
this is long so i'm putting most of it under the cut so y'all don't kill me for making a huge long post
I considered putting Zane and Sora on here as well since Iā€™d also consider them my ā€œfavsā€ but like this is already gonna be. A lot of. Infodumping (also i typed THIS part before I even started and decided not to yell about Lloyd because this already got long enough). Maybe Iā€™ll make a separate post for those two hmm hmm much to consider but for now MY (technically) FAVORITE NINJAGO CHARACTER: JAY WALKER
THE SPARKPLUG WHO INVADED MY BRAIN LIKE A PARASITE
Tumblr media
so hey his name is a pun this makes me laugh ridiculously hard every time I remember he is named. After a misdemeanor HSKSHDKFH
Jay is such an interesting case of a character for me because I started out the show not liking him. Which is. Stares at my entire account I think my feelings have changed somewhat
Jay starts out as an asshole I donā€™t think anyone can disagree with me there (although honestly theyā€™re all assholes in early ninjago they bullied a ten year old and left him dangling several feet off the ground) but over the course of the show you can see him start developing into a much more interesting character. He goes from being so insecure he's faking everything about himself to someone who knows who he is and is so genuine about it
now yea we could argue about whether his character was too uwu-ified post-season 10 but this is the FUN HAN POST SO WE'RE NOT GONNA TALK ABOUT THAT the point is you can SEE the growth that Jay has gone through and I am going to show you that growth through what I call
āœØ The Skybound to Prime Empire Effect āœØ
I AM SO PASSIONATE ABOUT THE IDEA THAT PRIME EMPIRE WAS WRITTEN TO BE A DIRECT PARALLEL OF SKYBOUND AND WAS CENTERED ON SHOWING HOW THE NINJA ESPECIALLY JAY HAVE GROWN THROUGHOUT THE SEASON
when season 12 rolls around we are at the point in Jay's development where he is CONFIDENT in who he is. He's a fun-loving jokester with the power of lightning and the drive to help people whenever he can. He uses jokes and humor to help alleviate tension and get people through whatever's happening. And when on his own what does he do?
Tumblr media
BECOME AN ENTERTAINER BABEY
i like to think jay's club in prime empire was a safe haven for anyone stuck in the game who figured out hey. we Can't Leave and felt freaked about it. Also Jay would generally try and spread the word that hey something ISN'T RIGHT HERE which would lead people to want to stay with him
(totally plugging my friend's fic but this kind of thing is explored in would you like to enter prime empire by @finn-m-corvex y'all should check it out cool cool)
also the prime empire shorts which i watched all of in the midst of typing this video cuz i love them go watch them please please please jay was publically fighting the red visors which I imagine may have raised some red flags for some players
THIS SOMEHOW TURNED INTO PRIME EMPIRE INFODUMPING LMAO ANYWAYS Jay's confident! He becomes an entertainer because it's who he knows he is! And it's something that will get people hyped and having fun, which is very in-character for Jay to do! He uses those kinds of things to mask the Bad Things going on and get people remembering what's good
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've talked about this sort of thing before but that's Jay's whole philosophy as early as season 9! Which is a DIRECT contrast to how he views it in season 6, as Nadakhan puts it scarily accurately
"You make jokes to mask the fact that you're afraid"
(i was gonna grab a screenshot for that like i did with the hunted scene but netflix has bloCKED THE ABILITY TO TAKE SCREENSHOTS THE WAY I USED TO and i don't have them already and i'm too lazy to grab them from elsewhere so alas trust me he says it)
making jokes to hide your fear and using humor to remind yourself of what's good and coping with the bad are two VERY different outlooks on it
so I think this outlook is what drives him to make this glamrock persona in the first place - this is a bad situation, one he's in with other civilians, and what better way to keep him and themself safe until the others get there than throwing a big performance at a safe place!
also it's just so gender okay I want to look like Superstar Rockin' Jay so badly
it's also interesting to see his outlook on his parents change over time! In season six he finds out Ed and Edna aren't his birth parents and feels upset about it, not understanding why his birth parents would've abandoned him. In season twelve, that outlook changing is EXACTLY why Jay's able to get through to Unagami
"I was abandoned by my parents, too!... I never understood why, and I never had the chance to even ask. But I always hoped there was a good reason. What if there's a reason?"
(again curse you netflix i wanted SCREENSHOTS whatever whatever)
It's this scene that gets Unagami to calm down long enough for Milton Dyer to get there, and presumably is what stops him from just. Flattening him and Jay like a pancake.
to piggyback off of this i absolutely adore how Unagami and Jay consider each other adopted brothers in that one book I still haven't read and I hope he's in Dragons Rising at some point Unagami is my favorite "villain" (no longer a villain) in the whole show he deserves more screentime
Tumblr media
like this is where i found out about this and it's plagued my mind ever since. i need to read. this book just for them
SO YEA OKAY Prime Empire is "Who is Jay as a Person Post-Skybound" to me also it opens up so many fascinating things about Jay. I rest my case
so backpedaling a little bit. JAY CARES SO MUCH ABOUT HIS PARENTS GUYS IT'S SO SOFT AND I'M sobs
like yea the first episode with Ed and Edna in it has Jay avoiding them like the plague but this gets explained very easily when you remember he was bullied for his home life before he became a ninja. It makes a lot more sense why he wouldn't want them around his new friends, assuming they'd react the same way. Also how was he supposed to know literally all the rest of the groups parents were either dead, presumed dead, or had a toxic relationship with their kid lmao
(Cole calling his mom kills me. Cole's mom is dead. I know they probably just didn't think that far ahead when writing the dialogue but it's so funny mans pretended to call his dead mom to get on Jay for not appreciating his parents iconic behavior)
anyways literally every episode Ed and Edna are central to (except like the one in skybound) Jay stops at nothing to protect his parents and it means the absolute world to me he's so much like them!! They raised an inventive little nerd and he will stop at nothing to make sure they're safe and it's. It's SO IMPORTANT TO ME OKAY
ALSO this is an excuse to clip my favorite piece of dialogue possibly in the entire show. Except Netflix won't let me now. So you just get the text dialogue
Tumblr media
Jay's just fallen from the sky with a messed up eye and is incredibly distraught that all his friends are captured. And his dad just. The woRLD IS FALLING APART AND HE'S EATIN' SOUP-
Ed i love you
anyways

This is a random dark thing but I was looping Too Young again which is like The "fc!bf's negative emotions" song so idk why I'm surprised BFJQHDJ ANYWAY. A thing w fc!Pico is that he makes a lot of offhand jokes abt how like he Should be dead or making rly dark jokes about his near-death experiences just bc of the amount of shit he's been through and he doesn't really see a problem with it but I feel like after The Hanzou Incident BF starts saying similar shit and Pico's like woah hey wait a minute that's illegal you can't do that

I have so many Thoughts I wanna say before I move on from the Public Safety Arc. There'll be manga spoilers by the way.
To be honest, I put off watching Chainsaw Man when I heard the protagonist's sole aim in life is to... touch boobs. I thought Denji was just like any other shonen MCs with perverted tendencies. I tried watching because it was animated by Mappa, but I stayed because of Aki, Denji, and Power (and Meowy). But as I reached the ending of Public Safety Arc, I realized Denji's more complex than that.
All his life Denji was deprived of basic needs; he couldn't even afford the bare minimum. He didn't get to experience love from a parent or admiration from his peers. Denji craved so much for love and affection, but the only way he knew how to get that was through sexual intimacy with a woman. Receiving affection from friends is completely foreign to him. That's why when he and Power did that in the bathroom, Denji's like, "Wait a minute... that's it?" Deep down Denji knew there's more to love than thatā€”there's more to affection than just touching breasts. The moment he started to realize that, Makima just had to twist his mind and turn him back to his sexual urges (screw u for that makima btw).
Throughout the whole arc, Denji continued to believe in his idea that love is just about touch and sex. He ran after women after women who fulfilled that but left him feeling hollowed because, well, they tried to kill him afterwards. It's actually entertaining to watch Denji finally gets his first kiss only to get barfed on the mouth and his second got his tongue cut off. And Makima, the woman he truly loved, not only used him but also discarded him when she got what she wanted. Most of those women don't see Denji as more than a dog. Denji is just some dumb boy who doesn't deserve the normal life he's having.
But Denji really is just some boy. But he's Aki and Power's boy. There's nothing special about him. Aki and Power know that because they looked beyond the Chainsawā€”they saw Denji as he is, and accepted him. People treated Denji like a dog and no one saw his worth as a person. But not Aki and Power. Aki gave him a house, taught him and Power manners, cooked for them, and taught him how to cook. Aki treated Denji and Power as his own. And Power, as unhinged and selfish as she is (affectionate), relied so much on Denji. I think that trust taught him to be a better person. To have someone rely on you can make you feel loved and respected. That's why helping Power overcome the fear of the Darkness Devil felt so natural to him. Sleeping with her on the same bed, taking a bath together, and Power walking in on him while he's on the toilet didn't feel naughty (as Denji said). The love Denji's searching for everywhere has always been in front of him: Aki and Power.
Makima can tell Denji she fabricated everything for all I care, saying everything has been a lie and that she set it all up to destroy Denji's mind and heart. But what Aki and Power felt toward Denji was real because they were the only ones who truly loved Denji without asking for anything in return. They saw him as he is, and loved him.
