#i think it's bc it's even harder to know whats canon and what isnt

[pato-ki]

I'll be very honest with you guys, I don't usually like time loop games so the descriptions for Bachelor's route makes me a bit :'/ With daniil being so rational and whatnots, I'm surprised his route will use such a fantastical mechanic-

At the same time, however, i enjoyed both patho hd and patho 2 so much that I'm trusting the devs to deliver us an amazing game o7 Fingers crossed for the best

i ffeel like im doing this wrong somehow but im not sure what about it is wrong or how i could improve it or if ive just been staring at it for too long and its actually fine

baby luffy hcs??? pretty pretty please?

Ouuuugh...... baby Luffy .... I think he's the kind of baby who cries at night mostly bc he's lonely. he just craves contact. dragon is up at night working on revolutionary stuff with Luffy slung to his chest bc he won't sleep otherwise. Luffy was born extremely small but has a huge appetite (for a baby of his size) and the nurses who monitor him after being born are always surprised by him like "holy shit he eats so much but he's like three and a half pounds" and he cries, his cry isnt very loud yet but dragon is always saying someday he'll have a very strong voice.

as a toddler Luffy is just as clingy but he's learning to talk and just always babbling about stuff. the revolutionary army adore him for the few years they have him. it's very indulgent of me to give them years with him lol. but i can't help it honestly. i just love him. iva loves letting Luffy play in their hair. sometimes inazuma will give Luffy fun little hairstyles, put in butterfly clips and little pigtails n shit.

idk if 7+ Luffy counts as "baby" but I think there's at least one occasion where shanks is visiting Makino's bar and telling Luffy stories and it's getting late but Luffy doesn't want to go to bed and keeps loudly waking back up when someone tries to move him, so he ends up falling asleep in the crook of shanks' arm, just feeling safe and warm with shanks' voice rumbling around him, shanks' heartbeat under his ear... im a huge sucker for dadshanks TwT

im also a huge sucker for big sis Makino who makes Luffy's clothes by modifying her own old clothes so Luffy wears a lot of little dresses and pinafores when he goes out to play <3 im hcing it's normal for kids of any gender to wear dresses when they're young, it's just easier to dress them that way lol. so luffy runs around in these cute outfits and makino is very pleased by the way it kind of makes him look more like her.

Ace and Sabo both are of the age to have grown out of wearing dresses (and Sabo being noble-born would have been raised wearing pants and shorts I think). When luffy turns seven is when he starts dressing like in canon (according to my whims lol) maybe his fashion sense is a little influenced by shanks and his crew. time for sandals and jorts, baby!

ASL time!!!!! Ace totally complains all the time about how much Luffy acts like a baby but mysteriously every night ends up with Luffy smushed between him and Sabo, even though he'd never do anything as soft as cuddling someone. Sabo isn't that much more inherently affectionate, he's not used to showing people love in any way aside from through obedience, but he's much quicker to take Luffy's hand so he doesn't fall behind when they're walking, and he's more often the one to carry Luffy if he gets tired or hurt. after Sabo's death and the bear attack, Ace tries a lot harder to be like caring and receptive of Luffy's feelings and needs, so he gives Luffy a lot more affection (and quietly relishes in how much it makes his heart sing to love someone, to be loved) when Luffy wakes up from nightmares Ace will hug him and hum little made up songs for him until Luffy's asleep again. when Ace has nightmares Luffy will hold his hand until he wakes up, bc he's a lighter sleeper than Ace and knows Ace doesn't react well to being woken up during them.

There's prob more I'll think of later lol but this is what I got for now!!!! Hope you enjoy <3

yk, it kind of annoys me when people rag on shinso for "coasting through life with his quirk". like, there are plenty of other valid criticisms of his character in canon (though admittedly i love his fanon characterization a lot bc of my own biases) but that one always gets under my skin. because that's,,, something basically every canon character does? if you have a quirk, youre going to use it, and the metric for which people use to identify a character as "relying on their quirk too much" seem inconsistent at best. even our very own main character midoriya starts relying on his quirk for everything basically as soon as he can use it without hurting himself, and we stop getting those fun moments where he gets to show his intelligence and creativity nearly as often as theyre replaced with "who can punch harder" contests.

also people who claim shinso did no physical training before the entrance exam, or before aizawa picked him up. because as far as im aware,,, thats never stated in canon? i think people are assuming that if he did any physical training, he would've automatically gotten into the hero course, but that's just not true. even if he trained as hard as he physically could, its gonna be basically impossible for a 15 year old who doesnt have a quirk that gives them an advantage to win against enough robots to pass... which is the literal point of the test. and before anyone brings up hagakure or ojiro, ojiro has an extra limb which canonically helps with his destructive power (he uses his tail to destroy things his punches/kicks couldnt multiple times) and professional martial arts training that shinso clearly doesnt have based on how he flailed during his fight with midoriya, and hagakure is invisible so she can easily sneak up on the robots and take the time to find their weaknesses without being attacked. clear advantages.

and even if he did absolutely no combat training, that could easily be a result of the whole quirk-centric society brainwashing everyone that their quirk makes them who they are. that they have to rely on it, and use it as their guide on who/what to become. so the fact that people are so quick to chalk it up to stupidity and arrogance, when it could easily be just a teenager who isnt immune to propaganda being bitter (and admittedly cruel, like i said not a fan of his canon characterization) when he tries to do something good with his "evil" quirk and it doesnt work, or hell any number of hundreds of other explanations, annoys me a bit. (i realize this is probably coming off as more of an angry rant than im intending, but im not actually that upset about it, im just trying to communicate my thoughts clearly.) ultimately, i dont think we have enough info on shinso's character to decide things like that, you know? and i dont think its productive to just decide that one interpretation of the very limited information we have on his thoughts and actions is the canon one, and then bash/praise him for that interpretation.

i think that's also why tagging things as OOC isnt really done anymore unless its egregious, because there are so many interpretations of characters that are close enough to canon that that version of them can be argued, and a lot of times the person who holds that interpretation is truly convinced that version in their heads is canon, to the point that anyone saying it isnt is automatically deemed an idiot who can't read. so its easy to say "people should tag more things as OOC", but it takes a lot to be aware that how you read a character may not be what is actually displayed in the text or what the author intended, and a lot of people only think about how they read the story due to their own biases or creativeness or pet peeves, not the literal reading of the text. its especially hard in manga, when drawings of facial expressions can sometimes be argued to display a number of emotions, thoughts, etc.

and that one post where someone said that shinso would die immediately if he had to fight someone with a weapon, when he wasnt trained, and they were genetically physically immune to his quirk?? like, yeah, obviously??? so would anyone! these hypotheticals are meaningless, because you could easily say "well, what is hagakure had to fight someone with a gun who had heat vision on day one, she'd probably die" or any other random character and scenario. it means nothing, especially since shinso was actively training to get into a school where he would be trained to both use his quirk and what to do when he cant use it. just saying "well he wasnt good at fighting before he got in" is a terrible argument. i agree with a lot of the rest of the post, but that one part baffled and irritated me.

I think Hitoshi’s biggest flaw is that the world building around him sucks. Had he been shown to train and still failed and had we actually been showed that he’s been bullied, his anger would’ve been justified or at least understandable/sympathetic. Instead we have… nothing, which makes him seem like he’s throwing a temper tantrum and/or comes off as entitled. On paper, he’s not a bad character whatsoever, and the same goes for Shota. The main issue with both characters comes from how they’re executed and how they mesh with the world they’re in.

[skuntank]

I like the idea of Diantha branching out into more villainous roles to take a break from her usual Pure Angelic Knight typecast. Especially makes sense considering the other two canon actors in Pokémon are best known for their villain roles, and could potentially play heroic roles alongside her. I’m curious, though, what sort of film villain do you see her being cast as? Noir, science fiction, fantasy, etc, there a lot of compelling options.

Oohh my god id love to see a role reversal sort of situation with Diantha being the villain and Brycen and Sabrina playing the heros ..... That's absolutely something I'm gonna chew on ....

Tbh I see her having an interest in all sorts of genres but she most often finds herself in dramas and romcoms, most often as the protagonist. I feel like those are the roles she's most expected to play, and like. I'm sure she loves dramas, and romcoms are like. Ok. In the junk food kind of way. But I think if she were to stick with one or two genres a lot she'd find herself itching to do something different.

I'd love to see her in a scifi flick. I think her audience would be very divided on her performance, some adoring it and loving her going so far outside of what she's usually in, and some thinking it's one of her worst roles ever (mostly just bc it's so different for her). Regardless of reception, I think she would have a blast with it or anything else entirely different from what she normally does.

This isnt really answering the villain part lmao sorry dbdjdb

The type of villain I see her really getting into in my head is like ..... The kind where their unhinged energy is just bubbling under the surface. I know I said it before but I really wanna see her go absolutely apeshit. I wanna see her lose her mind and like tear a scene apart and throw chairs and claw at her costar's character's face. I think it would be maybe a little startling when working with her to see her embrace such energy so easily and passionately and those who have worked with her on stuff where she's done stuff like that for a role come away from it with a bit of fear of her I think lmao

I think genres that might suit this best would be horror/thriller/suspence, tragedy, again drama, black comedies, and whatever a more introspective study on a specific character/person might be considered. Noir would be interesting for sure. Also just historical pieces, especially those focusing on the Victorian and Edwardian eras, the 20's, and probably the 50's? Idk btw I'm not a movie buff by any means lmao

I think these sorts of roles could probably be like your typical "woman scorned" archetype, I have a harder time seeing her in roles where the antagonist is evil just for the sake of being evil, unless it's like a children's movie or something. Tbh I think she would REALLY enjoy the roles where she can argue and debate that the character she plays isn't a villain at all despite them being listed as such. Or at the very least, even if they are outright a villain, they are either still an empathetic character to some degree, OR swing wildly into extremely over the top unhinged territory. I also see roles like fucked up matriarchs that are far too set in their ways and are an unfortunate part of the cycle in passing on trauma, black widow-types, vengeful spirits of those trapped in tragedy, ruthless criminals with a deceptively pretty face, characters driven by desperation, and the like being things she'd be stellar with....

The movie that keeps coming to mind for me is Pearl. Maybe not so much in terms of straightforward plot/character comparison, but absolutely in terms of raw energy. Or maybe you could make a one-to-one comparison and say "yeah I'd love to see Diantha in that specific role." She'd fucking kill it I think. Also fucking cast her in a movie about Lizzie Borden. God what a dream that would be. Also SUNSET BOULEVARD WITH HER AS NORMA DESMOND .... SIGN ME THE FUCK UPPP

[khaleesiofalicante]

tbh it isnt even about him dying in lbaf but the fact he will never get a happy ending ever in any universe is sad and harder to accept esp when his dream is a happy family. when i said fanfics of canon stories i mean it as a an alternate scenario like a what if, i think its also because he is a main character liek a MAIN MAIN character, we have had more of his povs than some of teh other main characters in this story. its can also be because, i started reading fanfics with harry potter order of pheonix bc i couldnt accept that sirius was dead and that was a side character. i havent read a single word of divergent after the mc died in it, infact have told everyone that you dont want to read it. by fics i mean in the sense that having read them so much you feel close to them and they are a main character in your head so you would expect them to live and not die permanently bc you already have sad , stressful things on your life, and tbh in my defense people would also write main character death in thier tags WITH heavy angst to have people avoid reading it who ar enot comfortable with it. so you are prepared.

so i dont think you should be surprised that people are sad about the story, a normal person would assume heavy angst means like temporary death not a permanent one. like for a lot of people its an escape the fics, but this felt a little too close to reality,

but having said that i also agree that these are FAN fics, and they are technically your story,

i am just saying i dont think i will ever be able to read your stories trustfully, esp knowing what happens to arthur theres a sense of sadness even if mavid end up happy in your stories, bc you know what it will be like. thats why arthur dying is less of a sad thing as its for plot than knowing its a canon event that he will die EVERYTIME (and quite "pointlessly") in ALL possible dimensions. which also makes sad because I LOVE your fanfics but this is just a bit outside of my idea of an escape with fanfics.

Okaie annie I’m gonna go write said fanfic right now because someone still needs to write it so you have something to scream about

[obitv]

do you have any drey/chip/william/insert character headcanons that might not be relevant to canon but are real to u

wiwi time.... i have so many. honestly. a lot of it is from back when i was first getting into the show and the way i fell asleep every night was pondering the many mysteries of eilliam eisp til i had headcanoned enough to be happy. so...

firstly. his body is like.... weird......... even before dying the million extra timed the wisps like. Arent human anatomy experts? theyre keeping him running, sure, but thats it. if william thinks he should be able to eat, he can eat. if he thinks he can sleep, he can sleep. if he thinks his hair should grow, etc etc. obviously after the train death things get... wonky. because not only are the wisps mad at him but having that connection severed weakened it when he got back. sleeping was harder, he ate less, when he DID eat it honestly just hurt sometimes? stuff like that. + wouldve been when his heartbeat started to get irregular and the decay very slowly began to set in. he started painting his nails a lot more around this time so people would stop asking him why his fingernails were purple (fun thing that happens when yr blood doesnt flow right. this isnt projection its called uh. uh. writing what you know).

also iirc smokijg because are you really a wiwi wisper if you dont have elaborate hcs on his relationship with smoking. he wouldve Very casually smoked back in deadwood, more of a "if my friend is smoking and offers me a drag or the ends ill take it, but ill never ask or buy my oen" kinda guy. when he joins the pd he DEFINITELY doesnt pick it back up because if tide didnt kill him dakota probably would since. dakota definitely would have strong opinions on that shut esp when he knew william was. uh. unstable. over the timeskip though uh. he never Planned to take it back up but he was the only one of thrm who kept going to school so he didnt HAVE anyone in the school since i assume he was avoiding summer or something (they said at the start of s2 that he wouldve stayed in school to graduate im working off that). so he started skipping class and ended up in the unofficial student smoking area and. it started as just sitting there bc he knew teachers wouldnt show up but then. well. stressful time, he had a LOT of thingd he didnt wanna think about yeah he definitely fell into it. vyncent minded a But but like. do they have tobacco on fauna idk man. hed ask will not to smoke inskde and kinda leave it at that because lbr those teo didnt talk NEARLY as much as they shouldve. it doesnt even do much for him by the time s2 starts because. yknow. Decay. no blood means no actual nicotine. but its very much habit by then

[msookyspooky]

What would happen if the reader actually like took a dipp and killed someone in the first movie . Would Billy and Stu like them or would they be like besties she take care of the twins/triplets?

Damn, that is an excellent question!

I think if YN would have went with the plan and helped them kill; they would have all been romantically together after that. Probably both of them infatuated beyond belief with us bc "WOW she's just like us fr how many women are just like us like that??" not saying it would last bc they are so freakin toxic that w/o us seeing the worst side of them trying to actively kill us and vice versa they'd fuck up eventually BUT you never know

Now with Chrissy and the kids? If we went with canon and it's only Sam I really don't know if Chrissy would have ever came out about it bc 1. Billy would proudly be with us after that and she sees that. 2. She'd have to admit she cheated and risk her back up plan to be with her boyfriend and future husband who is obviously the safer choice. 3. Billy is the level of toxic to be like "The kid isnt mine" just bc he's terrified she really is his daughter and is in denial. So with canon, it would probably go down like Scream 5 where Sam accidentally finds out and would secretly stalk Billy in town after that bc that's her Dad and she knows it and probably everyone else does to even if he's in denial and the killer brings it to light to Billy whether he likes it or not she IS your daughter and she's dying for it and so are you and Richie and Amber would probably let them know they KNOW that yn, Billy and Stu were the real killers.

Bbuuttttttt!!! If Gale died; maybe their wouldn't be any Scream 2 or sequels in general? Bc Mrs Loomis would have never did what she did AND no books or movies would be made and or no popular killer to imitate! So the only thing would be Roman wanting revenge for whatever reason bc he is the only GF that was in the know from the very beginning movie or not.

If we go with the hc twins/triplets thing; I think that's a LOT harder to get away with bc imo Sam doesn't look as much like Billy as Izzy and Tara do so I think in that case Chrissy would have had to come clean and Billy would be forced to accept those are his kids and I guess we'd have a similar relationship to them as Stu?? We're not their Mom, technically not a stepmom but maybe their favorite Aunt or something they see every so often?

[nicegaai]

sorry i want to ramble about fan fiction and i dont want to bothr people in dms

ok chapter 8 is getting its third googledoc draft because part of me does want to do as much of this as possible before the end of the year, especially while i still have so much free time.

thank you to past me for writing up the scene by scene breakdown. that DOES make this much easier to continue on. HOWEVER. why did i leave so much open ended. thats making this much harder. like

everything was left like this. and then when i add dialogue it changes the course of the scene pretty dramatically. ive spent like an hour today trying to iron out one scene i thought i had THE MOST polished up already. like. Carsex Scene was supposed to be my ease-in easy bit. HOW DO WRITERS DO THIS? im NOT cut out for this kind of work.

well this past year has given me a lot of respect for people who can write. ahhhhh

oh yeah also i cant find the whole first scene for this chapter. i wrote it a while ago and i have NO idea what happened to it. fml i guess

i think if i started rambling on about the plot it might get me into Real Writing Mode but im struggling to do this. thats what im trying to accomplish here with this textpost but it isnt workign yet HELP

ok no i can do this.

first scene i have dennor being cute togehter. unfortunately i havent figured out the whole second half of the scene. my notes are like "they talk about their relationship" and like ok i know this is necessary and ive been putting off them doing this for like 4 chapters but i dont know what to do with that. they should have a talk about the state of their relationship but i have discarded drafts of like mads confessing his love to sig which is no longer canon. i had a version where there was a subplot about them breaking up. now i just want them to have the polyamory talk, bcz someone has to and im not making sufin do it. but tbh i could leave it implied. and just put that off until the fic is over bc i dont care I JUST DONT CARE i dont feel like it

next was more sufin moments i think given some time i could make this bit really good. i love sufin. i love them being together this part is fine actually i just need to start it and the inspiration will come

next umm lets see. OH ACTUALLY this one is funny. im really into this scene even though i can sense it getting really really long. whenever i get into fleshing this scene out im goign to enjoy it. its denice and dennor having awkward boyfriend-sharing interactions. and nor is like sooo how are those wet dreams going lol and ice is like . well youre definitely not in them lol uhhhhhhh. jk he doesnt say this but he thinks it. his life is so hard u guize

the next bit .................. im trying to shoehorn in some norfin. im trying to set up that they should be besties and hang out more. because its true and right. unfortunately this "scene" is 2 lines long bc i wasnt sure what to do with it. could i drop it? yes. but for plot reasons I DONT WANT TOOOO. but what is the scene about? nothing, but i gotta fit in 2 important plot points and so i shall. maybe they will even do a sex. WHO KNOWS! NOT ME

next bit is another one that could get real long if i let it. i love the densu nation and i need their crumbs. i need them to hang out. IS IT PLOT IMPORTANT? maybe not. but TO ME i think it is CHARACTER IMPORTANT. theres some foreshadowing. actually maybe 2 layers of foreshadowing that begin here. and also they are playing videos game and being children about it and i love them

next bittttttttt emil feels like a fifth wheel and gets in his emotions about it :( this scene im feeling ok about even though its vague so far. its a good starting point. i can do something with this

next bit UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH AUUUUUUUUGHHHHH i dotn want to write this one. hm. actually i didnt realize i felt that strongly about this scene. i dont know if its because it sucks narratively, or its just not fun enough... writing emil at school with his friends is just not fun for me in general. i love hk and liech but this is just not my thinggg. it doesnt help that i ended the scene with saying "ughh something happens and plans fall through and i dont know how lol" like what am i supposed to do with that. but i think this scene will end up being important. a whole sideplot rides on this. if i deleted it, it might get confusing at the end. maybe i can just simplify it? eventually. maybe ill cut it out in the end anyway.

oh and then the last scene is the carsex scene. epicballs, i skipped ahead and im working on this first.

ew actually now that ive typed this all up, it sounds like a hell of a lot of work. what am i doingggg. im such a slow writer T_T what AM i doing

step 1 i need to stop editing as i go and just slam down some vibes in the goog doc. i got good at this for a while but ive lost that mojo. i need to revive her *looks at time* maybe tomorrow or something. or for a couple hours >_> if im very good at time management tonight

if anyone is reading this hi

[justakennyoshi]

More into this and my perfect narrative for Cartman and bunny

This has several hcs and is aged up to probably hs c:

Well I think both of these options eventually happen, being an asshole anti match maker first to later on become an actual matchmaker

First of all, no one tells Cartman about their crushes (Kenny would for his chick crushes but Butters is smth serious so no) so he simply finds out by himself. I mean, he would always make remarks about them making out or similar (e.g. going native) but he wouldn't REALLY think they were crushing each other until... They got more ashamed/embarrassed than mad at these comments. Then he did his research, he secretly read Butters diary where he confesses he loves Kenny and as for Kenny it was more observation than anything bc mf won't tell him shit (making him drunk was a no no for the guy with the best alcohol resistance) plus he knows Kenny since they're babies so he can easily tell how he feels after all those years. After learning this, he gets jealous SUPER JEALOUS and while yes it's bc he wants his best friends for himself, the real reason is because of his own insecurities. Growing up for Cartman was harder than for everyone, never really being popular and just known to be the fat kid. The same couldn't be said about Kenny (a likeable guy for everyone) and Butters (doesn't have many friends but the ones he has are super close with him) and Cartman isn't simply like that, his friendships are based on manipulation, mockery and toxicity. He doesn't have a healthy friendship with anyone. His relationship with Butters is a mess with such a rocky beginning as him being his disposable companion at best, but he later on learned they share some things in common like playing with dolls, being 'girly' and being silly kids, but no one will ever say that about Cartman, he didn't build a manly image for nothing and as for Butters... Everyone thought he was lame. His friendship with Kenny isnt healthy neither, they did shit together, they went through hell together yet while Kenny was always there as his silent accomplice, Cartman got away most of the times and was too cruel with him as well, being described as pathetic by Kenny (e.g. best friends forever). So for him at first, seeing Butters and Kenny, the two boys from the worst households (tho Butters house was never acknowledged as a bad one by everyone but those who knew) and had the worst lives actually being happy together, getting a healthy relationship he never was able to accomplish was something he got so much envy about it. He'd try his best to make them hate each other or ruin their relationship.

The story could take 2 routes here, one being him being an asshole forever which would stick to canon pc but I like to think in the therapy Cartman route, where he actually learns to be better step by step bc I like happy endings www.

Following this route the breaking point of it would be when Cartman in one of his schemes hurts Butters either physically or emotionally and Kenny has enough and gets to talk shit with him. He explains how he is aware that he's trying to separate him and Butters for no reason, Cartman replies that he's trying to make them f*gs not kiss each other and how he was doing them a favor. At this Kenny answers back that was bs and if he's jealous he should simply drop it. They discuss, fight wtw what matters is that at some point Cartman would admit he's actually afraid of losing them once they get together. Kenny would forgive him just for that but that he had to apologize to Butters too and admit what he was doing (smth Cartman reluctantly has to do)

After starting therapy Cartman started changing to good, Butters and Kenny being who noticed the most but guess what c: even if they indeed liked each other for a long while nothing ever progressed, the two of them deep in their insecurities and scared to ruin what they had so Cartman had to do smth about it thus how Cupid ye Cartman came back. Most of his schemes were super manipulative but at the end + more therapy he learns these won't help and what actually will are real advice and just being there for them so he just does that and luv eventually happens and the hamburger trio got their happy ending

The end

____________

Third option he is an anti matchmaker but his schemes somehow end with them getting closer and closer LMAO

The real question is would Cartman go all Cupid Ye manipulative matchmaker if he found out Kenny and Butters like each other or would he go feral out of jealousy trying to keep them apart because ain't no way his two best friends are gonna be closer with each other than with him

Thoughts on the Tanjiro and Nezuko role swap au?

Oh i love the swap au!! I think abt it alot in my own time. Ive always wanted to like, make my own content abt it but i tend to get pretty stuck on the mechanics of everything

Like, taking the world building of kny and applying it to a swap is super interesting to me, and i like trying to work it out. But there are a lot of specifics in kny that are harder to work around in a swap au. But thats not a bad thing! If anything it leads to more interesting story telling because it ensures that the swap isnt to 1 to 1. its just, a lot of work. and would take a lot of planning. If i were to like, write out a timeline of how i think the swap au would go, id have to figure out exactly how the mechanics and all the plot reasoning first. Cuz the way i see, it once you establish the world and lore rules, you can better mold the characters around that. 

To start, demon tanjiro is such an interesting concept on its own. I feel hes the easier of the two to establish a character for, because we have his canon series counterpart to go off of. We can pick and choose from the many traits we’re given in canon and apply them to demon tanjiro, and its really fun reinterpreting them.  Demon tanjiro basically takes the whole Im The Eldest Sibling trait to the extreme, and turning it into what giudes his reasoning now that he's stuck in a demon mindset (presumably similar to canon nezukos). Older Brother tanjiro is the best. :D  

I can still see him being that little ray of sunshine he always is and just, being stuck to nezukos side at all time, whether it be in protection, or just wanting to help her with daily tasks. Like a lost little puppy <:D. Hes just fueled by the desire to be productive and helpful because that's where he thrives, and hes just going to do what feels correct in his little demon mind. I can see him like, taking things out of nezukos hands wordlessly to carry for her because his reasoning is, “little sister shouldnt be the one carrying everything. Im the eldest sibling! I will do the heavy lifting for her!! >:[].” meanwhile nezuko just like, “brother can i pls have my bento box back pls i appreciate ur help but that's not what i need <:3!!” hes just trying to help in anyway he can, even if he doesn't fully understand why/what hes doing. 

I feel tanjiros presence would also be very important to nezuko. Shes young, and the only one there for her is her demon brother. While hes not able to speak, nezuko would still have one sided conversations with him. And in moments wheres shes unsure of what to do, she’d just think, “what would oniichan do?” because even if he can’t offer advice now, he’s still her older brother, and she looks up to him, demon or not.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Roleswap nezuko is interesting. We already have such a well established personality for tanjiro, but nezuko can be a little tricky since we dont have a lot to go off of in canon. Theres bits and pieces we can take and interpret to the best of our abilities, and it kinda makes it more fun (for me at least) cuz we get to see how people interpret her character in so many different ways. :]

i actually came up with a design for her! nezuko is canonically good a sewing, or at least knows how to. her haori is made of up her old kimono and obi. i feel the checker pattern is important to keep because its kinda what all the kamados wear. also shorts/hand cropped uniform pants. i wanted to do pants but they didnt mesh well with her black leg wraps </3 (also pluggin my old hair timeline post bc its relevant <3)

(i didnt design a swap tanjiro bc hed just look like ep 1 tanjiro but muzzled. but he might have an outfit change like nezuko did in ep one.)

My TLDR version of early story swap nezuko is basically: During the beginning of her journey as a official demon slayer, she is veryyyy determined to change tanjiro back to a human as fast as she can, and is essentially bee-lining it from mission to mission. People are fine, but she is not going to linger for too long if she doesnt have to. Shes got her brother! And thats all the company she needs :]. this of course changes as she meets, trains, and fights alongside other people. She learns to slow down and appreciate the people around her more and how they can help her cause too.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When trying to write out how the events of a swap au would go, i try to take nezukos character into mind ensure her experiences are different from tanjiros. Because they're different characters, different people, even if they face off against the same demon/character, they're going approach it differently, and have different takeaways from the things they experience

Now as much as i would love to write out/draw detailed scenes, that's a lot of work and planning and time that i do not really have atm. And i'd need to figure out A Lot of in world mechanics in order to create something I would be proud of. But in the meantime, i can establish a scene with nezukos' emotional beats to get a feel for her :D!

In the giyu confrontation scene in ep 1, nezukos first “emotional” arc would have a very different setup, almost opposite to tanjiros. When giyu steals the now fully demon tanjiro from nezuko, she’d be really angry at him. Shes angry someone thinks they can just take her brother away from her, dare to hurt him even, just because they think theyre stronger, just because think they know whats right (giyu ofc is just doing his best but. she doesnt know that </3). At first she’d try to retaliate, fight back immediately, in any way she physically can to get tanjiro back, but of course it wouldnt work out very gracefully. Shes no where near skilled enough to face a hashira, but she doesnt care. Her actions are blinded by her grief and rage from any rational thought. All she sees is this man stabbing her brother, threatening to kill him, and shes the only one who can save him. she has too. hes all shes got left. and this man is in threatening that. She’d tire herself out pretty quickly and fall to the ground, to tired to make another move. When giyu sees this, she’d get talked at for being too brash, running into a situation without thinking, without a plan, with only a goal in mind and no way to execute it. In a battle, you need to remember the people that youre trying to protect, not just the target youre trying to destroy. You need to remember who youre fighting for, cuz you cant fight for them if youre dead. Anyway funny axe throw scene now [insert plot things that happen that i have yet yo work out yet because the involve swap tanjiro. hes gonna be intersting] and we’re done. Even if her efforts to save her brother didnt turn out, there is potential to hone that determination into something, and giyu recognizes this. He believes that its something nezuko can effectively use if trained properly, maybe even help her find answers for her brother. After waking up, giyu would send the kamados off to urokodakis to be trained.

TLDR nezuko has really bad tunnel vision <3

We’re told in canon that Nezuko was not afraid to stand up to an adult if they were being mean, even if she's the smaller one in the situation. This trait is exhibited through her actions in Nezuko vs Daki, and I thought it was good scene to reference for how this scene might play out. i find the situation to be similar here. While it may seem out of her gentle character archetype, weve seen time and time again how fiercely she protects the people she cares about. hell, we even see her do the same thing in this scene in ep 1 when tanjiro is passed out!! In this moment if swap, she’s in shock, having just lost her entire family. she has already broke, this is just pushing it!!

i reallly wanna write more for this post but it is already. long lol. i have a few blurbs of texts about certain topics, and hopefully i can share them someday because i!! really like thinking abt this stuff! i really want to solidify and share my interpretation of demon tanjiro and how he works. things like how nezuko approaches battle and her overall fighting style. how the kamados fight together and help each other protect those they care about. maybe one day!

Open the vegaspete kink can of worms!!!!!!!

hiiiii anon!!!

djdbdicndic I HATE YALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SHOULDNT HAVE SAID ANYTHING IN THE TAGS.

ok.

so whilst i do think and agree with most of the fandom that vegaspete both do have a praise kink thing going on, for very obvious reasons based on who they are as people and individuals that crave being told how good they are. yeah. thats nice. BUT. a twisted fucked up part of me thinks they also have a humiliation kink. i reaaaally do. and it stimulates them just like the praising does. sometimes they alter between the 2. but they use it especially when they're ravenous and horny and desperate for a quick fuck in places or situations where they shouldnt be fucking each other's brains out. and the humiliation can be anything from name calling to picking on a bad habit or a weakness either one has, or denying the other whatever it is they want, be that touching themselves or touching the other or a release, until they're writhing and begging and crying because the want and the lust and the desire for it is borderline turning into shame and pain and yet there's still so much lust in it because of the desperation for it. and THEN, they're given it and praised for it. 

which partly leads me to exhibitionism - semi/partial (?) - they like to explore time to time. and it happens when, once, vegas just says in passing to pete after theyve had sex that "you should see how pretty your face looks in my eyes when you cum." and pete is the one who, next time, suggests fucking in front of the mirror. and he gets to see his face, yeah, but he becomes obsessed with seeing just how vegas' body looks in the mirror when he's climaxing, and how they both look with their limbs all over one another, to the point where it blurs into not knowing where one starts and the other ends.

and then once pete's cool with that, he becomes infatuated with glass surfaces. lifts and elevators, bedroom windows, car windows, glass tables ... reflections. ANYWHERE where he can see them together if possible. he loves to stare at their winding bodies, clothed or naked.

ok. ive been thinking about this for A WHILE now. but. blindfolds. oh my gooood. blindfolds. and bonus points for lace blindfolds. like. pete is already SO FUCKING PRETTY. he is a Certified Pillow Princess. but vegas wants to see him in a blindfold. wants to fuck him whilst he's blindfolded. and oh my god the image of pete climaxing, whilst blindfolded in the prettiest and most luxorious of lace, and how that contrasts on his skin, where, yeah his eyes are covered, to his cheeks being so so blush pink and his lips are even pinker from being bitten and kissed, and his mouth hangs open and he's whining vegas' name, that image STAYS in vegas' mind for days.

pete will sometimes ask vegas to feed him. mouth to mouth. what's feasible to do so. he enjoys it wholly.

ig this is already somewhat canon anyway, but choking. that then goes onto breathplay. like. its a Fact that vegas is as obsessed with pete's neck and nape and throat as much as pete is obsessed with the fact that vegas is obsessed with his neck and nape and throat. so yeah. breathplay. vegas knows just how much to squeeze and constrict and tighten, bc yeah whilst he does want pete a bit hazy, he still wants him present. vegas LIKES it when pete is present. bc above all else, he LIKES just how reactive pete's entire body can be to him. so yeah, he tightens his chokehold just enough so that it gets a bit harder to breathe for pete, but that he's still there in the moment, where the majority of his focus isnt on "i cant breathe", but on reacting to vegas fucking him. vegas likes pete like that.

one time, pete wants to do it raw. and vegas is hesitant. not bc he isnt clean, he is, but bc he doesnt want it to hurt pete in anyway. but pete trusts vegas even more than vegas trusts himself. and so they do it. and vegas is so .... slow and cautious and calculating everything so so much and overthinking it all so so much that it seems mechanical. and pete cant take it much longer at all anymore, so he flips them over, and rides vegas to HIS desire and pace and will and determination. and vegas just ..... fuck. everytime pete takes from him so shamelessly, he falls in love with him even more harder.

when they're out, they're not the type to engage much in pda per se. but they both know that people have eyes that wander, that look them up and down, that flirt. that people have hands that wander, that feel them up and down, that flirt. and when that does happen to either one of them, the other begins to become extremely physical. vegas will usually start to touch all over pete's body in an act of claiming him in public, his hands on pete's thighs, waist, nape, hair, wrists, ass. just a very neat, clincal, straightforward display. pete, though? his way of claiming vegas in public is a little different. its more seductive and sultry. he'll lean on vegas' body, slump his entire weight on him, rest his head on his shoulder, lace their fingers together, whisper in his ear "aren't i your pet?".

one time, pete decides he really wants to try on some of vegas' clothes. the ones he remembers before they got together that vegas wore. the red velvet shirt, the zodiac shirt, the green silk robe, the black satin shirt, the white blazor from his white suit, the leather jackets ..... its the way something as simple and mundane as vegas' clothes on his bare skin turns pete on and makes him hard. which then draws him to the cologne vegas wears. pete's obsessed. obsessed with vegas. and anything to do with him. anything that feels like him, that feels like he's touching him. and he's just about to touch himself to jerk himself off, when vegas enters their bedroom and sees pete in nothing but his green silk robe. "looking for something?" vegas asks, just like that time. and pete smirks. "i couldnt find my own clothes, khun vegas. your room is so big, and i'm not used to it at all." he replies, and as vegas prowls forwards towards pete, saying "why didn't you say so?", pete begins untying the robe, letting it partially slip to expose the skin on his neck and shoulder, bare, ready for vegas. and vegas bites, telling pete "do you know how sexy you are?". the robe's on the floor now, and pete wears vegas all over him, skin to skin, the real thing, instead.

oh pete loves the sounds vegas makes. vegas is so vocal during sex. and yes vegas loves to hear pete as a way of stroking his ego, that only he can pleasure him like this, but pete loves to hear vegas for the way he becomes undone just for him and for him only. and even though the sex is always good, always, its DIVINE when vegas loses it and doesnt know whether to speak in thai or curse in english or moan from a place deep within his throat or whine out pete's name in his sweet voice or just simply inhale in a sharp breath and exhale out a shuddery one. that's when pete knows vegas has lost every ounce of restraint and capacity to think. and thats usually when pete takes some control. he knows what makes vegas become undone, what makes him melt into his hands. sometimes it praising him to the point of tears, sometimes its not letting him touch pete, sometimes its not kissing him until pete says so, sometimes its having him watch pete touch himself and wishing it was him instead, sometimes its teasing and teasing and teasing vegas with small touches of pete's lips skimming the skin all over his entire body, his breath ghosting, whilst vegas' hands are tied, and its not going anywhere, its just pete continuously teasing, and getting all these sounds out of vegas, a symphony, until vegas has reached that point of losing all restraint and control where he doesnt know what language to beg and plead in or what sound to make to get pete to just fucking touch him and use him because at this point, vegas is throbbing in pain and agony. and thats when pete rewards him.

What were the nuances in revali’s character in botw? He just seemed like an asshole to me, I’m wondering what I missed.

hi hello so since i like him a normal amount (<lie) i have decided to just go ahead and analyze his whole character under the cut bc i have a Lot of thoughts abt him. hope thats ok w/ u!

ok so. where to even start. i guess lets start at the beginning? one of the things that kind of differentiates revali from the other champions is the fact that he wasnt born nor elected into a position of power. he isnt royalty, nor is he some sort of chief, meaning that there have never been any societal expectations or responsibilities hes been tied to-- every expectation for himself was set By himself, and boy howdy did he raise the bar high. every victory, every single accomplishment, the title of 'master revali' he owes to himself and himself alone. hes a self-made man! (or uh. bird guy) which is fascinating in the context of the games narrative, because it seems to almost always favor 'heroes of legend' or 'chosen ones' of sorts

which brings us to the next interesting fact about him

im pretty sure its canon that revalis gale is the only champion ability entirely Created by the champion using it. think about it for a second. daruks protection, urbosas fury and miphas grace all seem to be blessings somehow bestowed upon them since god knows how long. with revali though, we get to actually see him develop the thing. we see him struggle, time and time again, to accomplish something thats never been done before. ("...As you know, us Rito use our wings to fly forward. The wind lifts us up into the glorious sky above. However, we cannot ascend on our own.") all because he wants to and kind of has to prove himself to the world

"... I am close. So close to mastering my new move and showing everyone what I'm capable of."

"Not enough. I must stay in the eye of the whirlwind... must push myself harder..."

usually hes sooo high and mighty, but in the dlc memory, we get to witness the game show another, hidden side of him. it.. really did something to me, the first time we were allowed to see him vulnerable like this. hes so hard on himself... and its clear that all of this business takes a great toll on revali, both physically and mentally, yet he pushes on. that is, in my opinion, very admirable. and all of that is why i think he has every right to be proud of himself, just... *gestures vaguely @ how much of a prick he can be* Not Like This, lol

i think its no secret that revali has some self-esteem issues. ...a lot of them, actually. if you couldnt tell by now, he is very dependent on how the public sees him. imo pretty much all of his self-worth is tied straight to it + the things hes achieved so far. so when beloved 'master revali' ends up being 'a sidekick' to a seemingly random hylian knight, he IS going to get upset

this gives some context to his disdain for link. from revalis perspective, the hero of hyrule is someone who didnt earn his title, but instead obtained it by mere chance, by simply pulling out some sword out of a rock. we, of course, know that isnt true, and that link has his own share of struggles, but we arent revali. his negative feelings are understandable in that context, but i most definitely do not condone how he acts upon them

good thing hes like, the one champion that undergoes a noticeable change of attitude/a character arc of sorts during the base game !! a much-needed one, at that. thats right, it is now time to overthink every bit of dialogue he says during the vah medoh mission LOL

"Well I'll be plucked... You've defeated him, eh? Who would've thought. Well done. [...] I do suppose you've proven your value as a warrior. A warrior worthy of my unique ability."

at first, when we enter vah medoh, we're greeted by his usual snark and sarcasm, but his tone gradually evolves into something at least a Little bit warmer as link progresses. with every terminal, every little victory the surprise in his voice rises-- hes finally starting to see what our hero is capable of ("There are two terminals remaining. You're almost there (..!)" "Just one terminal remaining! [Huh] What do you know?"),

and it all culminates when...

"I can't believe I'm actually saying this... But you must avenge me, Link!"

there, he swallows his pride and admits that hes in a desperate need of links help. and, by defeating windblight ganon, link gets a chance to prove himself before revali.

then, once hes left alone with his thoughts, we get to see it:

"After all these years, I simply must admit the truth... [...] [Link] accomplished something that even I could not... Guess I was wrong about... how lucky he would be."

even though he doesnt fully allow himself to admit it out loud, i think the overall tone and subtext of the scene gets the point across: revali has finally realised that he was wrong about link.

hell, at one point he even considers the possibility of actually Losing to the hylian in a duel ("Win or lose, I would have liked a chance to settle the score with you.") which, in my opinion, is also very significant.

these little bits of extra dialogue you can hear after challenging the blights again give us more insight into his character. one of the most notable ones imo being the one where revali asks about his hometown ("...I cant fathom that it's been 100 years... There's no one left who would even know me. But even so, it will always be my home.") revali IS a jerk, but he isnt a selfish one. he is capable of caring for other people, and hes capable of growth and self-reflection

theres more to be said about him (i could ramble on and on about all the OSTs associated with him, about the flight range, about how the conflict he brings into the narrative is refreshing, about how he cares that there are children looking up to him etc etc etc), but i feel like this post is long enough already. TLDR: revali is undoubtedly an asshole, but i believe that theres more to him than that; in my eyes, he is one of the most interesting characters out of the cast, and its a shame that one has to do so much digging in order to find all of this... well. depth.

but anyways. thank u so much for reading if youve made it this far! i hope this was an at least somewhat comprehensible and interesting look into his character. uh. um. dont forget to like and subscribe and-- [REVALIS GALE IS NOW READY.mp3]

Vibe check Miraak for the character bingo

okay so miraak. i have things to say about him and its a bit A Lot. first of all miraak's fit is cool. like i like it, evokes ancient enemy warped to something Not Quite Human, and i think that's sick as shit. i will say that you can't see canon!miraak's face so therefore he looks cool, because out of sight out of mind.

controversial: everyone but me is wrong about them. okay its NOT everyone but it's majority. i refuse to think that miraak would acclimate to the world so well much less know how to tap that ass. no. that is IMPOSSIBLE and i will not hear arguments for it. i dont care if the kama sutras in apocrypha, it is IMPOSSIBLE. i also want to state that a lot of people write miraak (in miraak!lives fics) as dark and eternally broody and their only light of sunshine or whatever is the dragonborn... NO. stop that. he's enamored with the beauty of the world. overwhelmed with how real nirn is. you have to show that. if you're not going to write him as appreciative and in love with the beauty the world offers to him despite how he had turned his back on it a long time ago, you are wrong. im so sorry bestie but ur wrong.

i feel like canon!miraak had way too much wasted potential. like im not saying he HAD to live by the end of it, but the entire dlc could've been a great elaboration on what it means to be the dragonborn in the face of greater beings like the daedric gods. a lot of people also forget to realize that miraak's entire character speaks volumes about what it means to be trapped and want freedom, and at the same time, be malicious in his actions if not intentions. i'm glad bethesda at least Tried to make him sympathetic (and he is! he's my favorite villain because he's so complex in my HEAD lol) but i feel like they could've tried harder. miraak is established to be dramatic and a show-off, i think he deserved a little more depth than the "me evil i will kill you to be free" and maybe that IS all that's left of him inside, because it's been eaten away by apocrypha, but then why isn't that more obvious? he's clearly in control of his own thoughts and not a crazy, rambling guy like the ones who found the black books—so even if he is hollow save for the unquenchable thirst for ldb's soul, it is Highly Unlikely.

anyway if he was real i would be scared of him. i'm like 5 flat. i hc him to be 6'7" thats literally gigantic to me. at the same time though i would marry him bc i think he would be a great househusband. he's practically a blorbo to me bc like... most of his personality and backstory i wrote LMAO. its Mine and i am just pouring so much love and effort into this silly giant man... you know how it is. he is deeper that he seems (see paragraph above) and i also like to throw my issues on him. hello attachment issues? i am throwing them at his face like a baseball.

AND on the same note as everyone is wrong about him but me, i just think miraak isnt blond idc. he's not blond, i don't to hear it.

didn't get enough screen time sums him up. i wish we saw him more to further expound on his character, because he is Not someone whose absence speaks volumes, because his absence isn't of his own volition.

yes i am mentally ill abt him. can u tell? i bet you would have never guessed

anyway he's exactly like me LMAO. prickly, rbf, a little broody, but deeply in love with the world and what it has to offer him. and he has layers, like an onion, and like me <3

what are your takes on what kris and ralsei's character development will be going forward in the game itself?

hmmm

well obviously i hope kris does SOME species-questioning (i mean. the whole 'wearing a horn headband as a kid bc you thought you were a monster' has to be leading to something right) but more realistically i can see their arc being about, like...okay idk the word for it. but like, i think there's going to be something there with the soul/player, and like, both what that means for us (players) playing a game, and kris, as a character in said game but also like, hmm.

i know toby fox said somewhere that you get to be friends with everyone in deltarune, and that has to include kris. so maybe, like--something about coming to terms with who you are? with where youre living? kris isnt a monster. (unless they are and they're otherkin but while thats the direction i go in my stories i doubt deltarune itself is going there). the soul, us, the players, whatever you want to call it--even if we stop playing the game theres still, like, kris, who is left, and has to do things on their own, now.

like, in the beginning of chapter one, toriel holds their hand and walks them into school. maybe thats what the soul is like? i usually take a more...negative view in my own writing but i think there is something really interesting in the soul being more morally gray than that. and like, we're gonna have to be able to talk to kris at some point, right? please?

basically i think kris's arc is going to tie into ideas of agency and control and the lack of it and figuring out who the fuck you are when nothing seems to fit right (i think there's a lot that can be said about us controlling a HUMAN soul. we dont control kris. we control the human soul. something something otherkin kris <3)

for ralsei, i think i have a lot more concrete ideas on her arc. for one i think it would be GREAT if trans girl ralsei is canon but im um. not counting on it ngdfg. but! even if it isnt it still ties in with where i imagine her arc is going to go, which is like, learning how to live outside this set role you were given, figuring out how to be on equal ground with these people you have imagined existing for so long, only to meet them and realize its like, way harder to be friends than just have some nice things to say?

ralsei brushes worrying things under the rug a lot. i imagine she's going to have to work on that. also she's like, a really good character to deal with the whole 'hey so darkners are kinda fucked up if you think about it too hard yes yes?' like, how they're there to make lightners happy....fucked up! i think ralsei might realize this is fucked up. i could also see her playing an antagonistic role (at the very least to kris) as she tries to cling to the prophecy/her set role even as things change to a point where that isnt possible, but i think she'll get through that.

im also a big 'ralsei is kris's red horn headband' truther so i think their arcs are going to intersect due to that. something something idealized versions of self.

is this anything? i hope this is something. i have a lot of deltarune thoughts but mostly i express them via fanfic.

rainbow high but they each have distinct and varying styles

hi im putting my Disscusion under the post cause ik lots of ppl just wanna rb the art but also i have Thoughts

-ruby’s style is the strongest in the series imo. they designed a butch lesbian and nobody told them ig. my only slight change was giving her cowboy boots cause if shes from “the country” then she should... actually... look like shes from the country. maybe its just cause i grew up in nc but i would love some southern rep from a character where being from the south isnt their whole Personality. anyways i think she should wear western style button downs is all im trying to say

-bella... her style is ALL over the place. since she is a set designer i wanted to make her a theatre kid!!! her style is somewhere in the 40s/50s zone of vintage inspired so that way she has a definite Range of styles and silhouettes to choose from! im a sucker for the new look bc its so Shapes but i could also see her pulling off some long wool circle skirts and peasant top blouses! i also gave her some hearing aids and braces which you can probably only see if you zoom in dhjnf

-poppy got the biggest design overhaul of anyone. i kept the butterfly theme and nothing else fbhdjd. since her music has some definite funk energies i wanted to give her a 70s inspired look with some glam platforms and denim overalls! i think we deserve bellbottom pantsuit poppy. i also changed her hair bc literally the rh main cast all have practically IDENTICAL hair styles save for the direction theyre parted in. i wanted to give her those anime butterfly headphones but toned down slightly hdsjdnd oh and! shes also wearing glasses bc once again we get a whole cast of characters and not one of them is wearing glasses like smh literally like half of all ppl wear glasses?? anyways in terms of personality i wanted to keep her bubbly but instead of just making music thru like Divine Inspiration i think she should take a more realistic and nuanced approach!! show her nerding out abt music theory and talking about the themes her pieces represent and the stories they tell

-sunny’s design is Mostly the same! her hair is slightly changed, i wanted it to match the cover she drew for winnerz! i also made the rainbows on her outfit pride flag colors, and gave her some button pins on her jacket! every Token Anime Kid ive ever met has buttons plastered all over their bags and jackets and its a nice touch that gives her some more Character i feel

-jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaade. jade. i wish she had kept her dark lipstick. and also that she wasnt just billie eilish. and that she was the token goth of the group. her stitched up shirt is inspired by a shirt i wore in high school! it was from the 90s and SUPER beat up to the point where it was literally disintegrating so i just sewed up any new holes that would form with contrasting thread it was a Look. i hc her as wearing contacts bc when she tried wearing glasses she got upset that she couldnt show off her makeup as much gvhbnf! i also gave her a spider necklace bc i think she should still like spiders BUT i HATE the jokes abt “therapy tarantulas” bc only dogs and like 10 horses can actually be service animals and the whole thing w people lying about their untrained dogs/cats (or worse, exotic animals that they should not even own) being service/therapy/emotional support animals just so they can bring them in public is!! Really Bad!! and it hurts people who actually do need service dogs bc untrained dogs are well. untrained and set a bad example for how service animals will actually act! and owners who print out fake certifications also make it harder for disabled ppl bc it leads to store owners thinking that theres some sort of paper they can ask the owner to flash to prove the service dog is trained when that. is not actually true and theres no such thing as an actual certificate for this. if a service dog company offers a certificate/card/whatever to show authority it is specifically for disabled people to do when faced with this issue and has no actual official meaning. and ANOTHER thing that bothers me abt this joke is that.. Therapy For What? it would be really cool to see a canonically mentally ill character as a protagonist for a doll line! it would be fantastic to see them opening up that conversation for neurodivergent kids and their parents! but we have no indication for that at All just haha funy therapy spider :| anyways jade is an nd lesbian my canon now

-skyler is punk now! shes a fashion major and i think it would be a really interesting character to explore, someone who is shy but dresses really flashy and tough! i also changed her theme material from denim to the blue leather she wears at the party bc im biased towards alt fashion. her hair was really fun to design, with a big Cloud of Fluff at the top and long braids underneath bc get it!! its Rain Cloud Shaped :] i dont have much else to say bc this design is def in my Comfort Zone of styles. anyways we stan andershaw here they literally are in love

-vi vi! i didnt change much bc i dooooooont really know that much about influencer/mainstream fashion tbqh... i Did give her That One Halter Top Style that literally 2 other of the main characters are both wearing instead of a loose 1 piece dress tho. i also decided she should be into holographic fabric bc its very Sleek and Future Is Now and Influencercore. i also think the sleek tight fitting holo shirt/skirt is a good contrast to Big Fluffy Fur Jacket. she also has a prosthetic leg idk i just thought it would be a good Touch 

overall rh def has some MAJOR problems with diversity in all aspects and it shows in their fashion design as well! if you put the characters in black and white save for a few patterned pieces they would all be interchangeable and i honestly think that its representative of the larger problem! maybe i do follow the monster high design philosophy that every piece should only make sense on the character its from, but the fact that they cant even diversify FASHION despite it being a Fashion Doll Brand really Says It All.
