#i relate to him on a spiritual like

[randomprose]

it really sends me that in every single illustration we have of HC he looks pissed off bc he's overworked, running on 3 hours of sleep maximum, and like he got up on the wrong side of the bed every day. you'd think it's because he's a mob boss but really it's because he has a little shit of a baby brother who does nothing but be gay and cause Problems™️

I kinda like but dislike that Rumiko and Sunrise (and fans) have never even mentioned that miko (priestesses) are virgins. And that their shinto ability to tend holy places comes from being unmarried virgins. In modern day I guess it is not really required but I kind of wish more people analyzed Kikyo, the dark priestess, Kaede and Kagome in that light.

Personally I think that due to the era Kagome would not be allowed to remain a miko after getting married and having a child. She would still be one of course due to her spiritual ability, but I think she would no longer be allowed to remain in that societal role.

Kagome is so spunky though that I see her rebelling against it. I think Kagome's strength in being outspoken is another great contrast between her and Kikyo. While Kikyo was confined by society and was only freed from expectation when she became an impure monster. Kagome was outspoken and loud to where she didn't have much of a societal role and yet remained 'spiritually pure.'

There is a huge theme of 'societal expectation' in Kagome, Inuyasha, and Kikyo that I think being a miko is a part of.

Personally I'm torn on Kagome loudly choosing to get married and have a child VS remaining a Miko and Kagome choosing to attempt to do both.

Idia: *sighs heavily* In order for this to work, we need someone willing to go outside.

Ignihyde: *stares silently at screens in horrified introvert*

Ortho: *professional shit-stirrer pointing at one of the couches* What about Alastor-nii? He goes outside every day! :)

Idia + Ignihyde: *slow turn to stare at the who went to the common room in person* e-extrovert? *fight flight freeze instinct activated*

Alastor: *looks like death warmed over, is laying upside down on a the long lounge, pot of coffee in hand and surrounded by energy drinks*

Ortho: *viscously pleased he'd introduced Alastor and his brother*

Alastor: *notices the floating tablets* have I finally overdosed on extroverts or are there people here?

Ignihyde + Idia: *instant relief* introvert established

Ortho: *proud of himself* Nii-san needs you to talk to some people, Alastor-nii!

Alastor: *internally crying as he poured an energy drink in the mostly full coffee pot and chugged, looking nonchalant* that's nice, email me and I'll do it tomorrow

Sometimes I think about Lil Nas X and find him to be so fucking relatable. Like, I obviously don't know his life but I like to imagine this man who thought he was gay saw a really hot woman and went 'OH SHIT!!!! WOMEN????????' and thus realised he's bi.

Because it's true. Have y'all seen women?!?!?!?! I just.

Fucking mood.

Unrelated to that but since I'm already William-Morris-posting... Not to armchair diagnose a dead man, but does this sound like someone who doesn't have ADHD?

"Morris wished to do everything himself - he had moved rapidly through the more gentlemanly occupations of architect and painter before deciding to master as many of the crafts as possible."

"He believed in a universal capacity to learn, that anyone could be trained to do anything, and so achieve the rich, satisfying life he felt ought to be made universally available."

A man who doesn't have ADHD: If everyone would just learn all the crafts and skills possible then everyone would be happy and satisfied with their lives, because certainly everyone has the obsessive desire to learn everything at the same time and preferably right now. And this is why we need socialism.

I'm so fucking tired of every book on William Morris or Arts & Crafts Movement in general being like: "William Morris said he's a socialist and yet he ran his design business successfully! Curious! Wasn't it kinda hypocritical to criticise society but also live in society?? Hmm! A lot to think about!"

And they are always soo smug about it. Like he didn't realize that everyone has to still participate in capitalism to survive? Like if you read the things he actually said and wrote he didn't talk about how frustrated he was about the material reality of capitalism, which he had to live in? And like that being a major reason why he in the first place was anti-capitalist????

(flops on stage) i now present to you my very silly swap au,,,

essentially jasper is now the co-leader of the society who was bitten by a werewolf and is trying to hide it, jekyll is the uni student who got kicked out due to his experiments and then picked up off the streets, etc. jasper and rachel can’t communicate and jekyll and lanyon are living the world’s weirdest horror romcom you’ve ever seen. more info under cut hehe (feat. bad explanations and doodles)

in simpler terms, jekyll and lanyon swap narrative positions (?? is that the right term) with jasper and rachel respectively. (lanyons and rachels swap doesn’t technically work as well as Jekyll’s and jaspers does but shhhhh). Frankenstein becomes the mad scientist that attacks the society and moreau becomes jaspers idol.

longer explanation but WARNING!! it is 3am when i am typing this and i am terrible at explaining. it may be slightly incomprehensible.

so like jasper and rachel founded the society after jasper publishes his research and gets semi famous. two years before current events jasper is out on a research venture and gets bitten by a werewolf. he doesn’t want to scare rachel or the lodgers so he keeps it a secret (to his own detriment). flash forward to now and jasper gets a call to investigate a “creature” terrorizing the streets of london only to find hyde.

before jasper can process the dumpster man he is looking at hyde transforms back into jekyll. jekyll explains that while trying to prove his theory of spiritual alchemy at his university he may or may not have split his own soul. and got kicked out. and is now living on the streets.

jasper, not really knowing what else to do and kinda relating to the poor guy, takes him back to the society. he introduces his co-leader rachel, who pretty much keeps this entire thing up and running. (rachel and jekyll still become friends but she especially takes to hyde. that little brother shaped hole in her heart is still very much present!) then theres the lodgers (idk how they all swap) and then there’s lanyon, a university student at the society because it was mandatory for one of his courses. he is not enjoying it and would very much rather be breaking boy’s hearts back at school. lucky for him tho, there’s jekyll!

this goes about as well as you would expect. lanyon then spends the rest of his stay at the society trying to understand (and woo) the conundrum that is jekyll and hyde. it’s very fluffy and they learn to communicate like jasper and rachel in canon (yippee!)

unfortunately for jasper and rachel, they have been playing the “just friends” game for the last decade. im having a bit of trouble trying to flesh out swap rachel so i don’t really know if she’s in a lavender marriage like canon lanyon is or is estranged/divorced or just single but whatever the case is she likes jasper but thinks he just sees her as a friend while jasper is madly in love with her and is too scared to tell her. this problem has only worsened since jasper got bitten. everyone else tho is aware of how they feel about each other and are stuck witnessing their tortuously long slow burn.

(hyde and lanyon at some point probably come up with a scheme to try and get them to confess. it goes horribly wrong.)

so yeah. this au has been floating around in my head ever since i read the comic for the first time. it mainly came to be because of how well jasper and jekyll parallel each other and because i wanted to draw stupid fluff and older jasper lol.

if anyone has any ideas/questions/etc TELL ME!!!!! this is just a rough idea if you have a better concept go for it awhdvgevd
