#if i don't fall asleep om gonna throw something

[iaus]

Okay I'm gonna put the phone down and try to sleep more I swear

But the way I don't think I'd have had any interest in Jace if he got more characterization because... There's such a foul tone that circles him. Like.

I definitely do it as a dm but sometimes you drop a character in the universe you hate. And your characterization of them just becomes this extension of your derision for them.

And I think if that derision was expanded on Jace would have really been a character I'd just be so bored of.

But as it is he is just a collection of little ideas and HAS to complement the man who killed and remade him because what else is he. The dm doomed him.

I wrote a whole ass essay for Philza now Im gonna do it for Jaiden. In defense of the lack of content with Jaiden in it (real quick). Being an old goat of fandoms I can explain it (don't worry this won't take long and also it plays into her character's overarching narrative of a grieving mother.) Plain in simple women in Minecraft are notorious for getting shit on by the collective fandom. (Everyone has to take part in making sure that it stops happening.) She is mainly a YouTuber which makes a dissonance between mainly youtube viewers and Twitch watchers. So it's harder to catch her just because you have to go to another site. Also, she doesn't stream as often as everyone else. This makes for a lack of content, just because Jaiden is just a low-key person. This is the recipes for a lack of content BUT that does not excuse people who are being weird to her or think she's in the way of any ships etc etc.

BUT

Narratively speaking all of those things above make for perfect storytelling. (below the cut I go deep into Jaiden character I mean I go DEEP)

Even though Jaiden has the support of the whole island. At the end of the day- she goes back to that same house. Climbs to the very top and she fall asleep on the chair facing the sunset. This means that everyone else has moved on, especially Roier. She is forever stuck in that same place.

I can't be the only one who noticed every single stream, she logs out at the house. BY HERSELF (I think Roier built? Someone corrects me if I'm wrong.) It's so subtle that you wouldn't even notice it at first.

When asked where she was living by Etolies. She doesnt say her and roier house, she doesn't even say where bobby use to live. She specifically says " I am squating in Roier old house". She puts herself on the outskirts of what is further from the truth. Shes not squating in roier house im 100% sure Roier shares everything with her. It is her home too!

Next when it came to the marriage between cellbit and Roier. She was surprised that she was even invite. Its as if as soon as Bobby died all her friendships and relationships died with him. No matter how many people are around her she has this ice wall of isolation and deep lonely-ness.

Her grieiving is less theratical than Charlies its so sudtle that you can miss it. While Roier throw himself into drink and into a relationship. (Which has admitedly worked out in his favor. He gets a husband a new son, a world of love. Something that can lessen the sting of Bobbys death.)

Jaiden on the other hand threw herself into a a impossible task, "protect the eggs." She doesn't know anything about any group or fractions. That is her only wish and the federation saw that and picked her to use. She has nothing everyone else has seemingly moved on of course. They haven't stopped investigating but they death of Bobby mostly everyone has moved on. Besides Jaiden this is her driving force so no one will suffer like she did. (on a side note her and Charlie should team up for lore and to both work for the federations.)

ITS PREFECT! Oh are you greiving has everyone else seemingly moved on? Your friendly neighborhood bear has a book full of instructions. Don't think, I'll guide you.

Before it fell apart the federation was going to secretly use Jaiden and she was going to do everything alone. But because Jaiden can't keep a secret to save her life. This leads to everyone realizing how at risk Jaiden is at being used. They are all with her in an instant. But part of her character is now that she sides with the Fedration and no one sees it yet. While everyone else think they are the bad guy. Her story is shifting because cucurucho is there, because cucurucho is nice to her, because Jaiden is cucurucho favorite.

She is being drawn in whether she knows it or not to be om their side. Think of it this way-

Fit is team: Spy thats off the island

Cellbit and Crew are team: AntiFederation

Jaiden the one that is left alone is the perfect choice to slowly pull her onto the federation side. It's perfect! The self isolation, the want to connect but feeling like she can't. It would be so easy for someone to take advantage of that.

Regressor! Keith & cg! Shiro ?

Ah!! I love this!! Thank you so much for the ask and sorry it took me so long to get to, hope you like it <3

Regressor!Keith + Cg!Shiro headcanons

-Baby Keith is one of my favourite things ever, I love the idea of him feeling safe enough to regress around Shiro and the others

-I think that Shiro knew about his regression from the start, that it was something Keith didn't really understand so he went to Shiro and it was something they explored together as a coping mechanism

-Keith would be shy about his regression at first ("Dont need to be a baby Shiro") but would soon get used to it, accepting it as just something that happens

-His regression is mostly involuntary but usually happens when he's feeling either really excited or happy, he associates those emotions with his small space and can very easily cause him to slip

-That being said, no matter how hyper he gets, he always tries his best to be good for Shiro

-For Shiro, keeping a very energetic little away from his friends is near impossible, he might as well try to backflip ten times in a row because he'd have a higher chance of success

-This means that everyone becomes pretty used to little Keith coming over to rope them into a game, show them his newest drawing or something to that effect, babbling behind his pacifier as he holds onto their hand and takes them where he wants to go

-"'ome on Lura, gotta 'elp me fin' 'iro!"

-Speaking of, he has trouble not slurring his words when he's little, which is only amplified by the fact that he's very rarely without his red pacifier

-Shiro has become a master at deciphering his baby talk

-Keith is also very talkative when he's little (unlike his mentally older self), once his initial shyness has worn off he'll babble to whoever will listen until he's too tired to keep going, and even then he'll keep trying

-"gonna.... gonna bake wif... Hunk 'morrow... gonna..."

"Do you think it's maybe time to go to bed?"

"Nooooo, don't wanna"

-He might whine a little but he usually tires himself out by the end of the day and goes to bed relatively easily, Shiro will stay with him until he falls asleep

-Shiro does a lot of little things that he's learned help Keith feel more comfortable, he's a very attentive caregiver, noticing every little detail

-He is very in tune to what little things mean when Keith is regressed, he knows what everything means and what Keith wants from his noises

-Keith can do something as little as huffing a bit and suddenly Shiro is walking in with a sippy cup of apple juice and Keith thinks he has the best big brother in the world because he can read his mind

-Lance and Pidge can and will encourage mischief at any opportunity, Shiro is not impressed

-"Go on, kiddo, throw it!"

"Yeah!"

-The splatters of space goo stain Shiro's door for at least a week

-Shiro has his work cut out with Keith but, watching his baby brother playing chase with a few of the other paladins, seeing the way his eyes are bright and smile as wide as ever, he wouldn't change it for the world
