So like... it's a Thing in all fandoms where fans sort of latch onto fanon versions of characters and their dynamics with each other that are actually completely off-base, right? I don't know if this phenomenon has an official name, but I've seen it so many times and it's fascinated me every time. Especially when a character's popular fanon selves don't end up just diluted from their source material, but straight up OPPOSITE their canon portrayal.

So one of my "favorite" variations on this was how the early PotC fandom used to get Will EXTREMELY wrong, especially in comparison to Jack, and it made finding in-character fics SO. DAMN. DIFFICULT.

I've talked about this MULTIPLE times before, as have several other fans. It's a dead horse being beaten. But basically certain prevalent takes on fanon!Will have in the past leaned towards a personality that was very patient and grounded and even demure to contrast against Jack's off-beat personality and Elizabeth's fiery rebelliousness. Because Elizabeth has the drive to push back against social norms, Will became the foil who fell back to his pre-pirate version, reluctant to break rules unless she pulled him into it, even in post-CotBP timelines. Likewise, Jack was the one with the WTF decision making, while Will was more rooted in reasonable decisions.

And by their appearances, archetypes, and certain elements of their world views, you'd THINK that's how it works. When we meet Will in the governor's foyer, Will is so lovestruck and doe-eyed and subservient to the governor, I think that people thought that's just Who He Is. Especially because he often acts as Jack's straight-man foil in the comedic elements. Straight-laced. Rigid. Even boring or timid.

But if you actually pay attention to the movies, it's very much the opposite. In canon, Jack's USUALLY the level-headed one who just happens to have chaos follow him, because of the way he can wield it. He thinks in long run, tries to solve problems with words and as little fighting as possible as often as he can. Ideal situations for Jack are more like a thief--he wants to be in and out of the job as silently and slick as possible. The scenarios he's in are insane, because the way he throws other people around with those scenarios is kind of insane, but he himself remains largely cool and collected.

That's Jack.

THIS is Will:

Canon!Will starts out literally so impulsive and rash, Jack has to physically manhandle him at certain points to keep him from blowing up his plans--and then still gets taken out because he underestimates his listening skills and impatience. Will corners Jack into what is functionally a cage match to the death by sanely locking the door with his sword and very nearly wins. He is constantly at 11, constantly demanding things be done faster, more directly, and at the same time quietly scheming behind Jack's back almost from the get-go. He does flashy jumps and flips off of things because using the stairs is too slow or whatever. He shows up in DMC yelling at Jack to give him his compass at the point of the sword, and insisting he'll get Davy Jones' key by just "cutting down everyone in his path."

Even when Will mellows out significantly in AWE, there are remnants of this contrast still there. Jack's plan for leading Beckett to Shipwreck Cove seems to have been a very reasonable and underhanded effort to deliberately make sure Elizabeth is inside the Cove while Will is on Beckett's ship, in command of the Compass. Meanwhile Will's plan was to leave a breadcrumb trail of vulture-sea gulls feasting on dead soldiers' corpses.

What I'm getting at is, yeah, Jack's a charismatic "rogue" and Will's a "romantic hero" TECHNICALLY. Jack makes quippy jokes, and Will glares and scowls and WTFs back. But not only are they are both more alike than people give them credit for, they are also totally opposite their roles' traditional personalities in ways that the fandom tends to overlook.

TLDR; Jack's crazy, Will's a sweetheart. But Will is also a manic gremlin, and Jack doesn't always know what to do with him about it, so they often end up something like this:

And more fans need to play with this fact, the end.

the reason why i believe you and satoru can’t fuck while you’re pregnant is because the doctor instructed it would be extremely dangerous for you and the baby (unfortunately). in fact, they said they’ve never seen a case like this before and it’s strange how swollen and big you are, how frequently the baby kicks and the amount of pain you’re experiencing — but that is to be expected when you’re carrying the strongest’s unborn. satoru may have the weight of the world on his shoulders, but you are the one carrying his whole world inside of your stomach.

Lucian: Finally my wife is home.

Alyona: Tell me what happened! Where are they?

Lucian: Sleeping. What happened? Apparently my wife is meeting a man behind my back.

Alyona: Honey, what are you talking about? What man? You know i was meeting with Selena.

Lucian: We’re you? And you know nothing about Ryan?

Alyona: That’s my classmate, he was writing me about group meeting… Wait - did you go through my phone?

Lucian: You keep lying! I know it was him!

Alyona: Luc - you’re hurting me!

Lucian: You know what? It’s not worth it.

Headcanon that Nico,Persephone and Hades go out to eat together twice at month in the mortal world,in extremely luxurious restaurants,like a normal family. The thing is that they aren't quite a normal rich family,they give off Adams family vibes.

They would eat in a 5-Stars restaurant with beautiful clothes that are extremely extravagan for mortal standard (that are usually black or with dark colors) and beautiful jewelry never seen before. Their behavior is totally different from the high society they fit into and the people that usually interact with them loose their mind.

A waiter passes by their table and hears a conversation about Persephone explaining to Nico that poisonous flowers are pretty and extremely useful,and that she finally had the chance to grew them in one of her gardens. Nico is curious about them and ask about their benefits,and if he can extracted their poison,while Hades is asking if she also want to have carnivorous plants too. Persephone is delighted by it and their conversation continue. The waiter? He decided to have someone else serve them because they are too much for his mental health. The few people that have their tables close enough to them are horrified by their conversation.

Another time Nico is ranting about his last quest and how he,Percy and Thalia almost went to jail because he killed off someone in an incident and felt guilty about it. Hades start to comfort him,telling him that a mortal life aren't worth it and he doesn't need to feel guilty at all since it was a little mistake,while Persephone give him some suggestions to have some funeral rituals to make him feel less guilty and chase away negative energy. Nico isn't pretty much convinced but he eventually feels better thanks to them. The waiters that were serving their table? They run the fuck out of there because they thought they were serving people in a cult.

Another time Hades start to talk about how much work the war (the one against Gaia) is going to cost him,and how many souls will have to be sorted. He ask Nico for help and his son agree with him. The two start talking about how to get rid of the queue the fastest way possible,and Nico want to personally design Octavian and Bryce tortures,while Persephone sometimes give an opinion or two on the administration plan. The tables around them are all watching them in horror as if they are crazy.

Both Hades and Persephone are also extremely protective of Nico when they are in pubblic and in the mortal world,so sometimes they have bodyguards (read: skeletons) with them that follow them around. They themselves are also pretty intense with their declarations of love and most of the time Nico just want to dissapear and let them alone.

Since they are immortal Gods,mortal rules don't apply to them and most of the time they completely forgets about the mortals presence. Nico is a bit aware of what's happening around them but it's extremely funny to see everybody's horrified expression,be it for their richness,their weird aesthetic or their conversations,so he let everything unfold and he usually start the most insane conversation ever to create more chaos.

They are the OG Adams family for greek mythology.

guys he's so cute i can't take it

It’s the most honest job Stan’s ever had.

Sure, the company he’s working for is downright diabolical, scamming their customers in all aspects of life, but that’s not Stan’s problem.

As Le Ville Corp’s most successful customer service agent in the Oregon area his only job is to follow the company guidelines, sell as many bad deals as possible and never ever let anyone back out of a contract. 

Morality aside, nothing the company does is actually illegal, so at the end of the day Stan gets to collect his almost-minimum-wage-sized paycheck and go home in the knowledge, that no pigs will come knocking on his door anytime soon.

Life is good. Or at least as good as it gets where Stan is concerned. Last month he even got a raise for selling every bad product the company had to offer to one poor kind sucker. 

From household appliances to car insurance, magazine subscriptions and even their extremely shitty telephone and electricity contracts - the McGucket guy brought it all.

Thanks to him, Stan could upgrade from his car to an almost black mold free one room appartment with a community bathroom one block over.

Stan was finally moving up in the world and then his phone rings. He recognises the number. It’s his good friend Fiddle-not-gonna-say-the-rest McGucket.

Stan grins and cracks his knuckles. It’s about time McGucket figured out he’s gotten scammed. Time to make the poor guy’s life a living hell. No one is getting out of a contract on his watch.

“Thank you for calling Le Ville Corp. For us you are more than just a customer. You are family! This is Piers. How can I help you today?”

The moment Stan starts his greeting, he is bombarded with noise disturbances from the other side.

Ah, the good old Le Ville Corp telephone network working as intended. Maybe Stan can convince the guy to upgrade to a slightly less egregious version. 

Wait, what did he say?

His name is Dr. Stammered Lynes? Weird, but okay. Still better than Fiddle-nope-not-saying-it Hardon McGucket.

As it turns out, Stan finally met the mysterious roommate whose money McGucket has been using to pay for all of their products. Stan didn’t think the guy had it in him to ditch his roommate after the scam got discovered. Good for him!

Now, how to best screw Dr. Lynes here over.

***

An hour and a half of data security safety questions and a new phone contract later the doc hangs up to Stan’s cheery and corporate mandated farewell:

“And don’t forget we here at Le Ville Corp consider you our forever family, because you will stay with us forever!”

***

Stanford Pines just had the worst month of his life [not counting the weeks after the science fair that he refuses to think about].

The portal test was a disaster, his partner left, his muse refuses to explain himself and on top of all of that his new fridge won’t open, because this week’s subscription fee hasn’t been paid yet.

What the f-FIDDLEFORD!
