#i'm an ooc loser

[team7-headquarter]

Whenever someone tries to make a point about something the Konoha kunoichis, I need to make a pause and remind them how out of character they were in some of those moments.

Kishimoto pretty much abandoned Sakura and Ino's friendship and then tried to bring it back during the War arc. Ino lost her sensei and then her dad, and when was Sakura? You mean to tell me she wouldn't care? About any of it? Or when Sasuke was declared to be killed, do you mean to tell me that Ino wouldn't have run to find Sakura?

The way Hinata was written on Shippuden???? Naruto aside, people forget that Hinata refused to give up during the Chunning Exams and forced Neji to almost kill her if he wanted the victory. She was stubborn, she was prideful too, she had more going on than simply a crush on Naruto. She was told by her father she was a failure and yet she didn't give up on becoming a kunoichi, did she?

Then why is that Shippuden wrote her like her sole ambition was Naruto, hm?

And Tenten? She was MEAN when she wanted to be because she was highly competitive. We know that she wanted to train under Tsunade, so where did the death of that dream take her? She's such a powerful kunoichi and yet we know so little about her personality, her life...

We got "Ino and Hinata know some medic min techniques" in the most random way possible... We know Sakura would walk around with Hinata even, so what about their girl bonding moments during the genin to Shippuden years?

It made me so angry whenever the girls treated each other like strangers in Shippuden. So many stupid situations made to highly their teammates even if I meant to write the girls out of character...

Long before Ahlis existed in XIV and WoW (and even before her progenitor, Fern, came about), there was a duo of OCs that were, and still are, dear to my heart. That's what happens when you create and share stories with your best friend many years into the future; that love for them never really dies.

Una and Mandy came from pure teenage escapism and fantasy, indulging the best in what it means to be young, unafraid and hilarious in a way only young girls can appreciate. It also helped that a wonderful 90's anime, The Slayers, facilitated it lol.

(shout out to @birdpeddler for being that bff, the greatest friend and person to come into my life...and of course to @britishmuffin for creating this lovely artwork to bring these characters to life)

Staring at Four and Kay and rotating them in my mind

Got any 4K bits you haven't had a good chance to share yet that I could ask for?

They are one of *the* ships of all time

// Oh I mean they may be my own characters that I'm obsessed with but I wouldn't call them that... they're just my silly idiots lol- But I do! Mainly stuff I haven't had the chance to draw or write yet- I still find it a little crazy how much some people like these two- Anyway here's a ship chart I've done for them- I've done it for 3/8 and my idol ships but- not important rn lol

// Everything under here is going to be rambles cause I'm a loser who's obsessed with their own characters lol

// I haven't shown much of their dynamic outside Four teasing Kay but generally Kay's pretty normal around Four, he just gets flustered from her teasing and what not. In fact Kay also likes to kinda tease Four- in a very friend like way for instance holding something she wants above her head till she says please.

Kay and Four met about- 4 years prior to this blog or 2 years prior to Splat3, I am attempting to write out this first meeting so once it's done it'll be posted here and maybe on AO3 (however I'm a slow writer- might take... some time lol)

Four has saved Kay's butt on multiple occasions however there was one specific time where she full on saved him from getting shot, it was during this case- Kay had been lured out for getting too close to solving it, Four had tailed him and from the shadows using a charger prevented the assailant from shooting Kay. While there are many reasons he loves Four this was the moment he realised.

The moment Four realised she loved Kay- he was helping her with a mission, and while Four jumped over the fence no problem, Kay's suspenders (that he doesn't wear properly) got caught on said fence causing him to fall and land himself upside down against the fence. Of course Four found it hilarious and it was just this kind of "Oh I love this idiot" moment.

The reason Four, who is much more confident in her feelings then Kay is, hasn't confessed is because 1. she finds him getting flustered cute. 2. she wants him to actually have the confidence in their relationship and 3. she won't admit it but she's actually scared of ruining their relationship- she worries that she isn't actually good enough (which is the same reason Kay won't confess, that and while he knows Four likes him as a friend he doesn't think her feelings are actually anymore than that)

The pair share a few interests, they have similar tastes in music- Four loves it when Kay shares his music, it might not always be her taste but it makes him happy so it makes her happy- they also both like video games- Four's more into RPG or action games akin to like Sonic or Persona whereas Kay is more into puzzles and horror like Resident Evil.

They understand and respect each others boundaries but ironically they are also the except to the rule like in Fours case- Four hates physical contact and others being in her personal space to which Kay then goes out of his way to not be too close to Four but Four actually likes being next to him but she also does very much appreciate the fact Kay understands that boundary.

OH- There's this one little story idea I had for them- something silly not really agent related- Four gets herself caught out in the rain, luckily she's slightly more water resistant but Kay runs into a very soaked Four. Obviously he's extremely worried for her despite her waving off his concerns but eventually he convinces her to at least get indoors and get dried. Four points out his place is closer and they should go there to which he reluctantly agrees. Once arriving Kay instructs Four to stay by the door while he grabs her a towel which he gently throws upon her head once returning. Four being Four then starts to a bit too roughly dry her head to which Kay promptly stops her- reminding her that she's still in very melty state and she'll hurt herself doing it like that. Kay points her to the bathroom where she can go dry herself and get changed (into one of his old t-shirt/shorts) Four complies and returns shortly after dried and with her soggy agent gear which she hands to Kay who throws it into the dryer. He says it wont take long but Four points out its really late, she might as well just- crash at his place for the night- she'll just sleep on his couch. Kay is- a bit taken a back at the suggestion but realises she's right by the time her gear will be dried it'll be super late. So he agrees, reluctantly, to which Four wastes no time in running to his living room and checking through all the games he has (cause she wants to play some) She finds that he's got a game she has been dying to play and begs him to let her try it, obviously he lets her (seeing her face when he agreed was- way too adorable for him) Kay sits and watches Four play for a bit before ending up asleep on the couch next to her, when Four realises this she turns off the game before just- leaning her head against his shoulder for a bit before falling sleep herself.

Kay definitely plays rank in his free time, he's tried to convince Four to join but every time she refuses- at first he thinks it's because she's too high a rank for him (He's like A-) but he learns it's actually because she too low a rank to join which major surprise considering the feats he's seen her do. When he finds out he actually offers to help teach her which she initially refuses, pointing out how her whole family are S/X rank and none of them have been able to teach her. Kay understands but does point out that he doesn't play like her family, they're strict and pro, taking rank very seriously where as he's just- a causal player and is much more loose about playing the games and that might be the approach she needs. Four is yet to actually agree to train with him (more out of embarrassment for herself) but she has started to consider taking up his offer.

Syd and Carmy are the kind of couple to do this in the alley behind The Bear on a break, before they're even actually together. Picture Nat or Tina coming outside to get their input on something and seeing them like this, giggling with each other 'n shit, and then Nat or Tina stare directly into the camera and does a 180 and goes back inside. Syd and Carmy are many things, but chief among these things is that they are essentially sickos.

would love to chat (plot?) with durges about how our characters would fit together.. especially interested in a tadpoled durge and a runaway iago (memories in tact) because they love to be a lying liar and hide the truth. also what dynamics in the bhaal temple would've been . . . what would other durges think about this half sibling sacrifice-slaughterlamb-turned-accountant.. much to think about.........

one of these days i'm going to write up all that i've changed from azzarello's bullshit era and the one (1) piece i've kept from milligan (and also changed) and the only thing currently stopping me is that it is going to be so, so inside-baseball incomprehensible. and i almost never want to go reading/screencapping azzarello and milligan to add references but i Want to add references.

canon is goop, just know that we continue to ride the bus down "hellblazer ended at #250 and looks like swiss cheese before that" street.

⸻ maybe I should keep dropping hot takes , maybe i can get perma blocked by Laios wanters. In all seriousness though ! I do have a lot of disagreement with fanon collective hc ╱ view on him.

⇢ laios likes women, laios likes women, laios likes women ⇢ laios has a weird crush on marcille ! ⇢ laios has no trauma that made him dislike humanity, he just is ⇢ laios parents aren't even that bad they were just regular ass parents that needed laios to be normal for ONE second ( dead ass his nightmare is getting a proper job and getting a proper family. ) ⇢ laios was wrong for that toushiro name incident ⇢ his autism / mental illness is not an excuse for his offensive and awful treatment of people's boundaries ⇢ his family were pretty well off, laios is a privilege white man ⇢ he was a shit brother and a terrible friend.

;; oh! also!

i don't think i have any molly or arackniss blogs following me, but i feel like i should probably talk about how my angel views his relationships with his siblings and his family in general since it hasn't been disclosed yet --

for the past four years i've had his background pretty cemented, and that includes his siblings. so:

-- molly is his absolute world. he loves molly more than anything; probably even more than his mother. molly is older than him by two years and she pretty much raised him. however, she died by accident because of a fight with their father that angel caused. towards the end of his human life, when he was addicted to drugs, he didn't care much about what happened to him anymore. so he would start fights with his dad that would sometimes escalate into gun fights ( he was in the mob, but i think i've made that clear already so i won't talk too much about that right now ). molly got in the middle of one because she was trying to protect angel and she bled out from the shot inflicted. angel blames himself wholly for her death, and it is one of the leading causes of his overdose that took his life and planted him in hell. he died about three months after molly did.

-- his relationship with arackniss is . . . strained at best. arackniss is younger than him by a year, and he was always the troublemaker. he was bold and threw caution to the wind; he was reckless, and in doing so, he became their dad's favorite. but technically, since angel was older, he was in line to inherit everything once their father died. this caused a lot of resentment between the two brothers ( and their father ) because angel didn't want to run the mob, but arackniss did. but neither of them had a choice. arackniss was also the one who got him into drugs in the first place.

-- angel's mother was actually lobotomized when he was about eight years old. it was an arranged marriage, and she wanted out, but he couldn't have that ( mob things ) and so he wound up lobotomizing her which was somewhat common back in the time period he was alive in. angel remembers who she was before, but very faintly; he mostly just remembers crying and clinging to the zombie that used to be his mother. she used to be so full of life, at least for / in front of the kids, and now she hardly had any at all. she was also treated as far more of an object and possession than a person; she was the mafioso's wife. that was her title, that's all she was. incredibly sad, but also extremely common in his environment.

-- angel's father was an absolute piece of shit. he would take his anger out on the kids ( of which he had just for status and possession reasons; he never loved them to begin with, he just had favorites based on who was the most useful, which constantly made the siblings -- or at least arackniss and angel -- fight for his approval ) and he would pretty much throw his family to the wolves when he could. if he ever protected them, it was because it would look bad on his image if he didn't. he also had them for fake leverage; angel and his siblings have been kidnapped several times before because someone from another gang thinks that his father will be crippled by his absence and willing to do whatever it takes to get them back. it's not true, of course; they serve as a diversion to the things angel's dad really cared about. though angel never really figured out what that even was. he was heartless; it was difficult to see him care about anything.

that being said! if any molly or arackniss blogs do follow me, this is all extremely flexible! this is just his canon, if he's talking about his life with someone, this is what he will be referencing.

i like to think of iago's magic taking a very physical manifestation with their hands, I think it's neat!! for example, their hands get very twitchy after using magic or tingly feeling when wild magic moment is imminent. when they were little, they would clasp their hands together reeeaallly tight in the hopes that would stop their wild magic surges. obviously it does not work like that, but it's a lifelong habit they have yet to kick, so they still clench their fists or squeeze their hands together when they're overwhelmed or panicked. also one of the reasons why they're a bit touch starved. finnicky hands = wild magic = danger. they've learned to keep their hands to themselves for the most part to keep others safe. they actually LOVE to hold hands but will only do so with someone they really feel comfortable with and only if they're sure it's safe. rubbing/massaging their hands calms them down, but again, is only unlocked at level 10 friendship. the mannerisms thing had me thinking about it,,
