If there are 100 Classic Espio enjoyers left, I am one of them. If there are 10 Classic Espio enjoyers left, I am one of them. If there is only one Classic Espio enjoyer left, that is me. If there are no more Classic Espio enjoyers, I am dead.

Let Ben Hargreeves be an imperfect person.

Let him nag people to death as he sits on his moral high horse. Let him be snarky and bitter and jealous of the fact that he never got to live his life. Let him be immature and refuse to admit his own faults. Let him be frustrated with Klaus because he made the choice to stick around and not go into the light. Let him fail at being the voice of reason because honestly he’s been dead for seventeen years and doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Let him be a condescending, selfish hypocrite who is desperate for control. Let him be the type of person who hates losing. Let him call his siblings “narcs” and “narcissists” when he doesn’t agree with them. Let him be the type of scummy jerkwad that starts a crypto scam and helps his brother start a cult. Let him act like a miserable little pessimist who hates not getting his way. Let him be utterly pathetic and awkward and just kinda suck.

Let him be a Hargreeves.

thinking about that one ship where there’s literally exactly one fic for them on ao3 and i wrote it years ago and then orphaned it but it still continues to haunt me because why is it still the only one ever.

[mariigoldzz]

I often see young haymitch being portrayed as kind of emo/angsty in fics even before he gets reaped and now I'm imagining him listening to angsty rock music.

[homelanderbutbig]

I decided to back up my works to AO3, just in case my Tumblr goes tits up again. I probably won't use my AO3 account other than to cross-post my stuff.

Link is here.

I posted them all in one fun-sized bundle, and will continue to update it as I post on my Tumblr.

Feel free to follow me down this endless hallway of big sad bois.

i just want to know what the Evilive production team was smoking when they decided that "Prayer" was the song they'll play during the rain scene

HALLO!!!!

As I was trying make another SHITPOST MEME/STORY(you can view here the first I made),the inspiration kinda dropped. So I started to rummage through what I manage to and I found the oh moment (that moment in good ol enemies to lovers), for both Godzilla and Ghidorah. And look:

GHIDORAH:

Vs: GODZILLA:

As odd as it seems it makes sense (for me) that's how they understand their delevoping feelings for each other.

For Ghidorah is overcoming their previous opinion of Goji. The Alpha, the dastardly creature that dared to oppose them and defeated, twice. Under their eyes, by spending time w him they discovred that under those gray scales lay hidden something more. A warm voice beloging to a creature powerful, wise, caring, thoughtful. Prideful but not arrogant. Someone as they've never met and that intrigue them.

For Godzilla instead Ghidorah starts as a threat for his role and the balance he protects. Loyal to his duty that he may have forgotten that's supposed to be alive!!! That he has his own needs and desires. And that's what Ghidorah reminds him. But it doesn't stop there. It's not just phisical attraction. Ghidorah is what Godzilla may never be. A creature free from any type of bounds, that can come and go as if please, that does as if please, following its whims and making its own rules. Ghidorah is Godzilla's temptation. Something he wants to induge, for once. Or more.

This might be a controversial opinion but I think the possession scenes in s2 were not only necessary for Ben’s character but also the characterizations of the Hargreeves’ siblings in general, if only because it re-establishes two of the main issues that they struggle with due to the abuse they suffered as children - being unable to comprehend autonomy and struggling with gaining (and lacking) control.

From the beginning of s1 it’s shown that despite the majority of the siblings’ strained relationship with Reginald, they all still play the parts he assigned to them well into adulthood - Luther is the ever-loyal golden child, Diego is competitive and rebellious but is still playing hero through his vigilante work, Allison has completely leaned into the fame that her powers and the Academy got her, Klaus is the failure that never managed to reach his true potential and Viktor is still ordinary. And when Reginald (while unbeknownst to the siblings) creates a plan for them all to return home and band together, they ultimately end up following through.

We don’t get to really see this with Ben though. Sure, he gets onto Klaus about his addiction - but that’s not a control thing, that’s just because he loves his siblings’ and wants his brother to be safe and healthy, right?

And to an extent the answer is yes. Obviously he loves Klaus. Obviously he wants the best for him. But I think that it’s telling that Ben’s method of trying to get Klaus sober relies on prioritizing other people - specifically himself. In fact, his main argument for Klaus getting sober is because his addiction makes Ben feel like he has no input or control.

And while it comes across as being self-centered, it (in my opinion) shows that the siblings’ genuinely view having some sort of control/input to be important - and they equally expect the others’ to understand why they are upset when they don’t have it.

This leads directly into the possession issue in s2. Ben - who’s been dead for seventeen years, whose Dad methodically stripped away his and his siblings autonomy as children, whose sister literally has the power to make people do whatever they want, whose body acts as a host/portal for a horrifically violent eldritch being - sees an opportunity for control. And he takes it! Because obviously. Who wouldn’t?

While we the audience know that behavior is wrong and invasive - the Hargreeves’ don’t. Their idea of privacy and free will - and honestly just ethics in general - is super screwed up. Even Diego - whose strong moral compass is one of the biggest aspects of his character - doesn’t view Ben possessing Klaus as wrong. To him, it’s a joke at best and irritating to Klaus at worse. It’s a part of a bigger pattern seen with the siblings throughout the show.

Losing autonomy is just normal to them. It doesn’t even cross their minds that they’re being cruel to one another - this is especially true when it comes to Ben and Klaus’s relationship! They aren’t trying to hurt each other in s2 (for the most part), they’re trying to annoy one another - they just grew up in an environment where they never learned where the line was.

Now, I’m just going to end this here because otherwise I’d just keep rambling on about how this relates to the lack of boundaries between the siblings (specifically Klaus and Ben) in general or how it reflects Ben’s view of the horror or a million other different things. Thanks for reading if you’ve made it this far - but I don’t blame anyone who didn’t.
