I could talk for ages about all of nerdy prudes must die [the song] but specifically the "who will pray for you" part is so good because when richie tells max to repeat himself max turns away and switches from saying you to me and he's really singing about himself and the fact that no one mourned for him when he died. The switch to "or is this the eternal dark without a dawn" from "this is the consequence for what you've done" is so interesting as well because not only does it betray maxs fear at being stuck walking in undeath forever but also this IS his consequence for being a bully all his life, now he is stuck being a bully in death.
and then he flips it right back to richie like he remembered where he is and what he's doing, and richie does repeat after him up until "this is the consequence" before he realizes that maybe this is what he gets, but he still doesn't need to cower before max jagerman anymore, because they really did take away some of his power.

thoughts on max jagerman from npmd:
the fact that when he died NOBODY gave a shit, except for how it was going to affect the game. like yes he was a terrible person and fucked in the head and yes this is a comedy and their obsession with the game is hilarious but it also makes me sad knowing that he was also a kid and he was BRUTALLY killed and literally nobody cared. nobody. bully or not, this was a child who got impaled through the chest and then hacked into bits and buried beneath the floorboards, and the ONLY thing anybody had to say about it was "we won't let this affect the game!!" and from the sounds of it nobody outside the school was even aware of how shitty he was. they just didn't care
also the way he gets SO into singing "who will pray for me when i'm gone? or is this the eternal dark without a dawn?", and the fact that "is this the eternal dark without a dawn?" makes NO sense in relation to richie so i definitely think he was talking about himself and how he was literally trapped in this afterlife of bloodlust. like the mayor said, this is all he is now, there's no point reasoning with him. it's not like he'd made the decision to kill anybody but his spirit was reduced to this all bc of the house, so its not like dudes at peace
the worst we saw him do when he was alive was hit a dude and flick someone in the balls and then he was murdered, forgotten, and doomed for eternity, and he was EIGHTEEN
heathers the musical's prom or hell rly encapsulates this feeling i think, which takes place after ram and kurt's funerals (image down below)
Tumblr media
EDIT: I JUST HAD A FUCKING REVELATION. OH MY GOD OH MY GOD
oh my god. okay. i was watching will branner performing this song, when hes singing the aforementioned bit ("who will pray for me when i'm gone? or is this the eternal dark without a dawn?") i was thinking to myself "that doesn't really make sense with richie", which is what led me to make this post. HOWEVER. however however i ALSO realized that he's fully facing away from richie, he's not singing to him anymore, which was my supporting evidence.
now. this is the next bit: "who will pray for you when your body's gone? this is the consequence for what you've done!" NOW. this DOES make sense with richie, who is being killed for what he did to max. so i didn't think much of it before. BUT when max says, "this is the consequence for what you've done!" hes STILL FACING AWAY. and more than that, he's looking at himself in whats almost horror, holding out his arms and staring down at himself. go watch it its actually devastating
i think that the whole fuckin part is about himself. "who will pray for me when i'm gone? or is this the eternal dark without a dawn? who will pray for you when your body's gone? this is the consequence for what you've done." is about max jagerman in its entirety and i think some part of him is recognizing that he is in hell and that he is to blame for it.
i rest my case.

Richie working at Beanies, Max is a regular. Occasionally Richie brings Max coffee at school or before games. Idk.
Barista Boy
Max Jagerman x Richie Lipschitz
Genre: Fluff, confessions, first kiss
A/N: I had a great time writing this… I might make it a long fic on my ao3 if there’s enough interest 🫣 Anyway, enjoy!
Richie knew exactly how he ended up as the personal barista of the biggest bully in Hatchfield High. The inability to say no combined with his huge fucking crush on the guy made it virtually impossible for him to avoid it.
Coffee was far from his passion. No, that belonged to the worlds he was able to slip into when watching anime or playing his favorite video games, but Beanies wasn’t a terrible place to work in retrospect. Sure, the customers could be assholes, but that was bound to happen anywhere he worked dealing with the dreaded public. The coffee smell did however make him sick quite often. It seeped into all his clothing, his hair, and his very being. He swore that no matter how much he scrubbed after his shifts there was still a faint scent of coffee. He was convinced the smell had burned itself into his nostrils and he would never escape it.
The scent made it even easier for his predator to find him. Had he not managed to evade Max a time or two he would have thought the jock had a tracking device planted on him. The way he was able to find him at any given moment was uncanny. So he submitted to bringing him coffee as a sort of peace deal.
“You know…” Max started his voice echoing in the empty locker room. He was a big tipsy, they’d just won the biggest game of the season against Clivesdale after all and he couldn’t say no to a few celebratory beers. He sipped the coffee from Richie, turning the cup over in his hands, his leg bouncing with the weight of what he wanted to say.
“Mhmm?” Richie questioned, his head tilted a bit in confusion. Max wasn’t usually one for having difficulties speaking, that was however very normal for himself. Sometimes his mouth moved faster than his brain worked and his words got all jumbled around.
“I absolutely fucking hate coffee,” Max finally whispered.
The weight of his confession hung heavy in the air. If he hated coffee why did he demand such a task from Richie?
Oh… could it be because… surely not?
Richie sucked in a sharp breath, his cheeks on fire as he looked away. Focusing on the nighthawk painted on the wall he began to count backward from ten before he glanced back over at Max, hoping that his flush was less visible now.
“Why?” he simply asked.
“To see you.”
“Me?” Richie asked dumbfounded. Surely he wasn’t hearing things correctly.
Max nodded, throwing the cup of coffee across the room. It landed in the trash can with a soft thud and silence for what felt like an eternity followed. Sobered up by the coffee he scooted closer to Richie on the bench who tensed up as their shoulders collided awkwardly.
Richie mumbled something that Max couldn’t make out, breaking the silence. With a bit of prodding he spoke again, this time a bit louder. “What game are you playing?”
“No game,” he shrugged and Richie relaxed his tense shoulders just a bit.
“I — I should be going,” Richie stuttered. Stumbling to his feet he attempted to run but Max was faster and he found himself pinned against the wall. Knowing a beating was coming he scrunched up his nose and closed his eyes, but it never came. Instead of a fist meeting his face, he felt something featherlight, hesitant, and a bit wet on his cheek for just a moment. His eyes flew open just in time to see Max pulling away from him, a furious red blush on his cheeks.
His eyes cascaded down, hovering over his lips and then up to his eyes. Terror couldn’t even describe his emotions as he found Max slowly moving back towards him, with a hunger in his eyes that he’d never quite experienced in real life before.
Their lips met. Soft, gentle, hesitant of the other.
Just as they were closing in for another kiss they heard loud footsteps coming their way. Panic settled across their faces as they jumped apart just in time for Jason and Kyle to stumble in.
“See ya, nerd,” Max chuckled with a sly wink and joined his friends.
Richie sat in the locker room alone for at least an hour, his lips raw from his constant rubbing trying to process what the fuck had just happened and whether it was nothing more than a dream.

hun, you sure as hell honor your name, couse you're mad. as in mad mad. madhatter kind lf mad iykwim
still, I missed my favorite mad mad angsty-hate-complot-ish-sex writer and being here but now I'm back from the dead to do once again 5+1
1. btw loved the chapter, but I had to remind myself that it's ficticion, because I was this close to pulling my hair. my goodness they really are stupid aren't they? and I might need to kidnap and torture Christian to get him to spill the goddamn tea because Max won't do it. asshole. and funny question I have a feeling you won't asnwer or was already asked. what's the relationship that Jean Luc and Max have? like, was he there in the oast with Kelly as well? from where and how do they know each other?
2. look, I like Pierre irl. kinda. sometimes. but here he's getting on my nerves more than he would usually. I really don't get his side of his relationship with Charles and that's something I forgot to ask from last chapter. because the heck was that shit of letting Charles do stuff. like, first he acts like a big protective brother, then he starts kinda controlling and then he goes on to do the alpha version of dick meassurent with Max? I desperately need some light on this. is it gonna be cleared some day in the future or am I never getting that answer?
3. and the fact that Charles got the end of the stupid fight like what the actual fuck is wrong with people in this society. this is not a movie where two idiots fight for the damsel in distress. do better *judgemental look*
4. very time Max uses his alpha voice, a fairy looses their wings. and he himself looses a part of his heart. I find it awfully confusing that he keeps doing it over and over and over, and then dares to make me feel bad about him feeling bad about Charles feeling bad and the action itself. fuck him honestly. I mean, Charles' on the task, but you know what I mean
5. is the 2025 ferrari line up happening here as well? does Max knows LH is gonna be Charles' new teammate or how's that situation here, because I feel like that could be trouble. wonder why.
+1. jesus FUUUUUCK that shit was a campfire. hot. like. hooot. I've recently discovered that I have a thing *specially* for Max in fics *specifically* when he's about to have sex with Charles, or already having sex with him and then he laughs or smiles or smirkS GOOD FUCKING LORD. and he did here. I almost passed out of hotness. or. is it horniness? idk
+2. your uptades always catch me when I'm at work. so obviously I have to either risk myself to eternal bullying and open ao3 in the middle of my office or in the lounge or go to the bathroom for 20+ minutes and have everyone thinking I either died or ate something thay was rotten since 1965. it's always worth either way. I saw someone saying that this fic hits like cocaine and look. I've never done cocaine but I share the feeling. sure as fuck I do. this is my way to thank you for your service contributing to get me insane piece by piece.
omg you're back!!!!! hi!!!! I hope everything is ok with you.
obvi I won't answer, but everything will be revealed in the fic!! but I willlll sayyyyy ... Max and Jean-Luc have known each other for a while :)
we have absolutely not seen the last of pierre! but I can kinda answer a little bit, even though it's a cop out - but a lot of his behaviour can be boiled down to the fact that he's and alpha, and feels super protective over Charles.
for real Charles was catching strays. he was like ..... but what'd I do?
hahahahaha yeah he's a complex little bean isn't he?? hates using it, and yet .... makes you wonder what kind of things he was maybe taught as a kind about how to deal with omegas ....
hah I wish I could make that ferrari line up work, but tbh this was all plotted out before that announcement so. no, its currently not a thing in this universe.
+ 1. Max is just. so hot. in every iteration of him.
+2. please let me know if you ever read it at work (either in front of people or in the bathroom) so I know if that happened. I'd really love to know.

The Amazing Digital Battle Circus: The Combatants
Context: The Amazing Digital Battle Circus au
Caine: Welcome back to the Amazing Digital Battle Circus the greatest digital blood sport in the world. I think it be nice to recap who each of our combatants are. One thing about all our combatant is that their all able to recruit npcs to fight along side them
Pomni- Our up and coming star… Nope could not say that with a straight face. From what I’ve seen of the little jester she excel at running and pulling random objects out of her pockets. 
Notable fight: Ragatha vs Pomni
Npc allies: The alligator bandits of Gummigoo, Max and Chad
W: 0 L: 5 D: 1
Gangle the ribbon wrangler and possible champion- The closest thing the Amazing Digital Battle Circus has to a champion, the ribbon wrangler herself Gangle. When not fighting Gangle is a rather nice gal who doesn’t take kindly to bullies which is why she and Jax get along like a wooden house on fire and Jax is the wooden house. This kindness extent to her fighting style as she tries to end things quickly- unless its Jax then she make him suffer-with constricting or crushing attacks.
W: 50 L: 2 D: 29
Kinger the broken veteran king- One of the oldest combatants of the ADBC and is damaged because of it, Kinger is an absolute master strategist. Kinger is one the few combatants to utilize npc in rather clever ways, that the boys at C&A have to adapt in real time for. But don’t think that Kinger sits back and let npc do the talking because Kinger has a mean flurry of blows in his own right. But its sad to think he’s only dangerous half the time due to how crazy he is due to his “break” in sanity. 
W: 25 L: 10 D: 5
Ragatha the ragged ruffian- One of the more simple fighter, Ragatha is the third most dangerous combatant in the ADBC. Ragatha utilize her speed as well as knives, like a lot of them, some would say she has knives for days. She tops this speed and knives off with her signature Cloth cutter the comically large meat cleaver which she was rewarded with from the adventure Cooking Carnage 
Npc Ally: Not by Ragatha's choice princess Loolilalu
W:30 L: 20 D: 0
Jax The absolute heel- The eternal loser of the ADBC, takes up the role of an absolute heel. Utilizing short range teleportation through doors and the summoning of bugs (mostly centipedes), Jax is still a strong fighter when not fighting those above.
W:19 L:49 D:1
Zooble- What exactly do you want me to say about Zooble, that they can detach body parts to attack because that’s all they can do. Zooble is only here because they are the “dying” relative of someone working at C&A, nepotism I tell you straight nepotism.
W: Who cares L: Many D: IDK
Manny the Manaquin- A fellow of few words Manny is rather dangerous. So dangerous in fact everyone including Gangle and Kinger at his sanest forfeits if they see his name in the brackets.
The abstracted- A curious case of beyond madness, those who have lost themselves to abstraction are no more then feral beast (some more then others) with a similar drive for violence as your truly. The boys at C&A don’t know why abstraction happens. One thing that is for certain though when your put into a ring with one, it’s absolute digital blood bath.
The Hound, the circus beast- One of the abstracted who have completely lost themselves, the hound is an absolute beast. Even before their abstraction they were voracious, ready to attack with teeth and claws flying. Now that they are abstracted, its more of the same, but even more deadly
Kaufmo the killer clown comedian- As the host and commentaor of the ADBC I must stay neutral, but if I can say one thing about Kaumo, is was one the best before his abstraction. Kaufmo attacks with puns bringing them to life with every word. He’d toss fruit at you then literally punch you or he say “your a cut above the rest” then you’d end up in two. I  have to say of the combatants that entered the ADBC I miss Kaufmo the most, because now there is no humor in his fights only words that sound like puns but aren’t.
Queenie the brutal queen- The brutal queen of the arena, who knows no equal and the brawn to Kinger brains. In all the history of the ADBC Queenie has never lost a fight I mean she has tied with Kinger and Gangle a few times but never lost to anyone else. It is a shame that she abstracted, she put true beauty in strength
Slinks the deadly slitherer - Before the one side rivalry between Jax and Gangle, Slinks the worm was our ribbon wrangler greatest adversary, to much greater effect. What they lack in arms they made up for in speed and maneuverability. Now a day due to abstracting they use that speed to bowl you over with reckless abandon  
Big Eye the big guy- The most simple combatant to ever enter the ring, Big Eye was one of the more physically imposing. Of course physicality can only get you so far in the ADBC so Big Eye also had an eye laser. Nothing really changed with his abstraction

Falling (doesn’t feel so bad when i know you’ve fallen this way too): part 3 (final part of chapter one!!)
read part two here!
Everyone was quiet for a moment. A chilling silence hung in the air, heavy and full of fear. 
“I know what it is,” Steph whispered, breaking the quiet. “My phone!” She held the device in the air. “All my pictures, my messages, my whole life is on this thing!”
“We don’t give a shit about your phone!” the Lords in Black yelled in unison, causing Steph, Pete, and Grace to recoil on the ground. 
The green one stepped forward. “You can lie to yourself, Steph. But you can’t lie to me.” He reached out, brushing his fingers through Pete’s hair. “You know what you have to do.”
“No!” Steph shouted, realization flooding over her. 
He only laughed. “What’s in your pocket, Steph-an-ee?” he asked, grinning as she pulled out the gun. “Put a bullet in his head we can take Maxy-poo right on down to Drowsy Town.”
Richie looked between Steph and Pete. Before he could stop himself, he was lunging forward, jumping toward the green being. “Take me instead.”
“Richie…” Pete began, still splayed out helplessly on the floor. “You’re already dead.”
“I fucking know that!” Richie replied. He turned to the demonic entity, the spawn of the Black and White. “Take my soul. Take my soul, and take Max’s, and let them go free. Surely that’s a good enough deal, right?”
“I suppose that could work…” the demonic entity said. “Let’s see what Maxwell thinks.”
The doors to the gym flew open. “Fucking finally! I’ve been waiting for you to finish talking for ages.” Max walked into the room, his presence making Richie pale, even more so than so was due to being dead. “You’re so fucking lucky i’m scared of monochromatic stuff, otherwise i’d be all over your nerdy green face!”
“How does he know what monochromatic means?” Pete whispered. 
Max stomped his foot on the ground. “I learned it at an anti-bullying assembly, fucknugget!”
“That doesn’t…. why would you… you know what? Nevermind.” Pete turned to Richie. “Are you sure you want to do this? Give up everything and spend an eternity with Max Jagerman?” 
Richie sighed. “It’s that, or you die. And I’m already dead…so. Really there’s only one logical option, Pete.” 
“Let him do it!” Grace yelled, interrupting the moment. “Who fudging cares if a dead man dies some more? We need this evil, corrupting, sexy jock off our backs before he taints the minds of more pure-hearted churchgoers!” She turned to the Lords in Black. “Hurry up and do it! We haven’t got all day!”
The room began to shake, and Richie let out an involuntary squeak, locking eyes with Max across the room. His last word before being consumed by harsh, high pitched laughs and deep, dark blackness was simply, “Fuck.”

While I think that we’re definitely in capitalism’s end-stage, I’m not quite as sanguine, because I suspect that what the contradictions of the system will generate is nothing. As with anything consumed without respite, you eventually run out, and history is no exception. How will we define ourselves when the final bill comes due, when the eternal credit card is maxed out, especially since we’re incapable of imagining anything other than capitalism? […] “What haunts me is not exactly the absence of literal space so much as a deep craving for metaphorical space,” writes Naomi Klein in No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies, “release, escape, some kind of open-ended freedom.” As Klein describes it, advertising and design mark everything in our reality, and we’re so constricted we can’t even imagine what wild open space would look like. For all that consumerism has promised us—comfort, security, identity—it was always the assurance that we could keep on purchasing our freedom that was the biggest illusion. Now the shipments are on back order and the shelves are empty, but for the time being you can still have whatever it is you want delivered right to your front door, never mind that the driver can never stop working. What happens after collapse when we can no longer define ourselves through products? No clue—the burden of defining some better world falls to those left behind after the rest of us have already left. In the meantime, have a Coke.

Before I watched NPMD I saw a clip of "The Best of You" and assumed it was like the original Heather's heaven prom ending. (Glad its not because I would be devastated if Pete and Steph died) But feel like an ending like that would fit perfectly with the Hatchet field universe. And everyone who "died" being on stage kind of helps the idea so....
AU where the nerds still make the deal with the lords in black, BUT they never said WHEN they would take care of max. So Max kills Steph, Pete and Grace, then gets dragged down to the Black. Everyone wakes up at a never ending homecoming, thinking that everything is fine and it was all just a horrible dream. All the nerds reunite. Steph's dad is a chaperone. And even Max is there restored to his human self. Everyone is overwhelmed with joy, Max can't even remember why he used to bully these dudes. And they dance the eternal night away, unaware that it's all a prison the LIB made for them.

i have some thoughts about max's character & the story of NPMD as a whole -- & while these thoughts will absolutely evolve over time, i really want to play with some of the story and dive a little deeper! so, some headcanon thoughts about my portrayal of max & how i imagine things working behind the scenes in the black & white.
this is not meant to bash the show. i'm a huge starkid fan & i love the hatchetfield universe! i've been writing it since 2020, after all. but i found myself a little disappointed with NPMD in terms of its tone & pacing. for me, there's something a little incongruous about the lighter comedy-horror / teen slasher parody tone and the stakes of the lore. especially when compared to the two previous shows & so much of nightmare time. & in general, i feel like the show missed a lot of GREAT opportunities to use the lore it already has to create a larger undercurrent of plot, both for the lords in black storyline & the storyline of hatchetfield high.
personally, i cannot BELIEVE they colored everything in blue, had a bunch of teenagers mask themselves behind facades because being a teenager in high school is hell, had songs about being a literal monster, lyrics about people being "too weak to enslave," the appearance of the black book, the fact that there are five alters and five lords - and pokey wasn't the main villain. yes, i know that this might conflict a little with some nightmare time lore, but i think it would be SO MUCH COOLER (& make more sense) if everything happening with the humans in hatchetfield was the byproduct of a war between the lords in black in a vie for power.
why does hatchetfield in particular suck so much ?? because the church of the starry children started breaking down the barrier between our world & the black and white, so it's CONSTANTLY feeling the influence of the lords in black. and the lords are best at exaggerating everyone's worst instincts. &, of course, all the death & destruction & murder & whatnot. so of course hatchetfield high, as an alter, literally feels like hell.
personally, i think the through line of all three musicals (especially TGWDLM and BF) is the corruption of the humans to act out the will of the lords. so, personally, i believe that the lords are recruiting humans to their side in all of these different realities in order to raise an army and claim the black & white for themselves.
it just makes sense to me! & it's why i feel the pacing and plot falls apart after richie's death. because immediately following that (the best, scariest, most impactful death in the show), we have hatchet town, where everyone turns on each other - and then that plot line goes absolutely nowhere. no one turns on each other! not to mention it's a just a vehicle for callbacks and cameos which is a shame bc it's one of the best songs in the show.
truth be told, these kind of specifics that i headcanon are way more likely to come up when writing webby, but i do think it influence's max's character in a really meaningful way! so, yeah -- a lot of backstory for portrayal notes but that's fundamentally who i am as a person.
i'm not the business of woobifying characters -- i just feel like the one note, shithead bully characterization is both boring, and fundamentally untrue in the show itself, and by the end of the show he's basically just a walking beetlejuice / freddy impression. max has so many lines that indicate that he's not meant to be a flat, irredeemable character - he thinks the nerdy prude gang hates him, he's grateful for their kindness, he paid attention during the harassment assembly, he's clearly the more affectionate & needy part of whatever the gloriously fucked up situationship with grace is. he also has a few lines that indicate something else going on: "the jock you demonize," "you think i seek revenge? ... [the world] needs to be saved and you're too weak to be enslaved," "expose the bloody lie," "who will pray for me when i'm gone? or is this the eternal dark without a dawn?"
i headcanon that max has been succumbing to the influence of pokey for years now. he was a great target - he's angry. as a kid, he went unheard and unhelped from the danger of his father, he had to fight for some form of control, for his voice to be heard. and there's a part of him that knows it's the school, its very location, that gives him so much power. that's his domain, now, for as long as he can hold onto it.
he started to change around the end of his freshman year. he wasn't ever the nicest person, of course -- he's angry, he's traumatized, he's a product of that small town toxicity in a bad way. but he's also been fun, protective, kind of goofy. by the time he's into his sophomore year, the quarterback for the team, all of those good qualities are overshadowed by his need for control, his rage, his cruelty.
i think a neat mechanic is that genuine connections, genuine love and joy, is the only way to fight back against the lords' influence, which is why we see max at his happiest when he believes that he's experiencing a genuine moment of friendship with the nerd crew. -- and his angriest when he dies.
after his death, he grows more inhuman, not less -- scarier, not funnier. the longer he's a puppet of pokey, the more humanity he loses. it's harder & harder to have a conversation with him, to reason with him.
ironically, that's why grace's intervention works. because he's still a teenage guy who thinks he's in love and that simple, genuine emotion is the perfect counter to the lords' influence.
i think his future can go either way - he can be consumed by the black & white, or he can be redeemed and fight to find his humanity again. it all depends on how he grows the relationships with the people around them, & all that power of friendship nonsense!

Is the second eldest daughter within her financial family business, although she is currently an actress and voice actor for movies roles and game voice characters. She can also enter in MVs as well.
Has rather an a attitude but does know how to put her mind in set. But tends to be blunt with her words on anyone, though she tends to be called as a 'Do not cross with me' style.
Has a similar attitude like her older sister, but not entirely.
Is close with her older sister and older cousin since childhood, though despite some bickering. She still keeps in contact with one another.
She and Aguri have met before (after the manager issue), she often assist them but has often called out onto facts onto them (so not so serious bullying XD)
Her old management think that she's didn't put effort, but Runako boldly stated that they are impudent and left. She is currently okay with her current management who accepts her efforts and work.
Flynn is one of her fellow actors, although on slight cooperation, she is in fact annoyed with him since he is dating her older sister. (If the ship is mentioned)
Seems to know who is dating her older sister. (Depends on which ship)
Truly hates Shin to the bottom of her core. Would never dare to chat or go near him no matter who issue or chaos he caused, she seems to know on what he did to Vil in the past.
Kaz actually likes her and her style after meeting Aguri. ( XD )
She has intimidated Koral to scare her for who knows how many.
Aside from her older sister, she seems to be in good terms with { (Co)-connect }.
Respects Victoria actually, it appears she likes her taste in fashion, and also knows that she is Aguri's girlfriend.
According to Chizuko, she is rather a road rage driver (gets into curbs so many times) and hates being late.

Dead Boy Detectives issue 1
I just read The Dead Boy Detectives issue 1 under The Sandman Universe banner.   It’s sad to see that banner struggle to stay in existence.  When it first started in 2018 we had The Dreaming (reboot), Books of Magic (Soft reboot), Lucifer (reboot), and the new original title, House of Whispers. Then came John Constantine: Hellraiser, The Dreaming: Waking Hours (twelve issue mini-series) and The Locke & Key Crossover from IDW.  After that was the short lived The Corinthian: Nightmare Country, and now The Dead Boy Detectives (soft reboot) and soon there will be Nightmare Country: Glass House (Coming this spring). This version of Dead Boy Detectives is written in such a way that you can just ignore the previous Dead Boy Detectives comics. This is deliberate to make it easy for new readers (as the original version has been out of print for some time) and to also serve as a marketing tie-in for the up-coming HBO Max Dead Boy Detectives TV series, spun off from Doom Patrol (but with different actors).
It’s interesting to note that in Doom Patrol one of The Dead Boy Detectives was played by Ty Tennant (Son of David Tennant) and David Tennant has worked with Neil Gaiman repeatedly for The Sandman audio drama (where he’s Loki), The Sandman Netflix series (He was in Dream of a thousand cats) and in Good Omens where he plays Crowley.  He was also the tenth actor to play The Doctor on Doctor Who and his wife played The Doctor’s daughter, and his father-in-law played a previous doctor. HIs wife, Georgia Tennant, also had a brief appearance in The Sandman Netflix series episode Dream of a Thousand Cats.  
Another interesting thing to note is The Dead Boy Detectives (though the show will be a spin-off of Doom Patrol) actually originated from Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman: Volume 4: Season of Mists.   The boys are two ghosts introduced in issue 25 of The Sandman comics (I forget what chapter number in the audio drama but I know it’s in The Sandman: Act 2 of the audio drama, I just can’t recall what chapter).   
The two ghost protagonists are Edwin Paine and Charles Rowland, two ghost children who read far too many Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew style young adult fiction and now think they have the knowledge required to function as detectives. But the real supernatural world and crime worlds intermingle into something far dark than the two ghost boys are prepared for.
The boys were roughly twelve or so years old when they died in the original version of the story but are bumped up to be in their late teens for Doom Patrol where Edwin was revealed to be gay and attracted to Charles, who seems quite oblivious.  Honestly, I never thought of them as having romantic interests in anyone because I always saw the characters as children.  The new TV version makes them older to accommodate for romantic storylines.
Anyway, I read the first issue of the soft reboot and it gives you a brief recap of how each of the boys died without going into too much detail about what was going on in The Sandman to cause the two children ghosts to initially meet.   Poor Edwin was killed by some wanna-be Satanists in the school attic.  And Charles was killed in the late twentieth century by the very same bullies who murdered Edwin, because they had been released from Hell when Lucifer quit to live on Earth and take up piano. (the main plot of The Sandman: Season of Mists and the TV series Lucifer). What I never liked about The Sandman comics was the idea of an innocent going to Hell and Death incarnate (who is portrayed as a kind woman) allowing that to happen. Because poor Edwin had also been trapped in Hell and he had no reason to be there except that he died thinking that’s where he’d go and for some reason Death, (who again is supposed to be kind) did not intercede even though we see her use her brother, Morpheus to rescue another soul from eternal torment later in The Sandman (See the Prez Rickards story in The Sandman: Words’ End).   I kind of hope poor Edwin’s origin is changed for the new HBO Max series and The Sandman Netflix series since it never quite sat right for me that an innocent child was in Hell, whether “Clerical error” or not. 
Most of the first issue is pretty generic and just tells you the basics about Edwin and Charles while a few grizzly things are going on.   It turns out the three-thousand-year-old witch, Thessaly, is being held prisoner by someone and is being forced to use her powers for them.    
I was never a big fan of the character Thessaly in The Sandman comics.  I’m not sure why the new Sandman Universe titles are trying to use her so heavily.  First she appeared in The Corinthian: Nightmare Country and now here. I suspect the plots are linked.   
As I said, I was never a big fan of Thessaly. For starters, she was very much a TERF in her original comic depiction in The Sandman: A Game of you.  Yes, her TERFyness was downplayed for The Sandman audio drama but that doesn’t undo the original depiction, not really.
Also she was not a very sympathetic character to begin with. She was cold and sort of reflected what Morpheus was before his character growth.  She was also homicidal and selfish.  She sold Morpheus out to The Kindly Ones just to extend her already very long life and so they would look the other way for her own misdeeds.       
Still, she was the most interesting part of the new Dead Boy Detectives soft reboot.  Seeing her in captivity was deliberately reminiscent of Morpheus’s captivity from the first issue / chapter of The Sandman.  And it makes me curious about how she’ll get her revenge- not if- but when she gets her revenge.

It's the murder house it's also Grandma's house and the correlation is Grandma to Biden who is president and that's Lori were talking about her QE2 and to the Mac clan McDonald's. And they're saying if you go up there that your clan will be hit but I don't think that it is inoperative until he goes there I think it's an operative code now and it has to do with Puff the magic dragon has to do with the serpent or snake really, but I feel that something that happened there that Mac was involved with or not that they blame him saying that your magical kids or something or after the bones of the Tommy F clone Giants
Zues Hera
That is what the whole thing needs and they had Trump murder his own and they forced it and in the house and it's considered sacrilege and Mac was really mad he found the house moved out there and got even angrier saw the two bullying you and thought they did it because of that and he heard you say think about it he's killing his own people and that's what happened and what it means is his people are all going to die and it look like him and it has something to do with Grandma and Grandpa iCarly who is Biden. And that's what it is too. The whole thing starts coming together it's his clothes and it's their code and it's wicked however it does fit with Georgia stuff too and they all are getting curious and the clans, they know biden's plan and they know the plan of trump and Max and their son and they're rubbing he didn't like madness to our son he's not really dealing with it well it's like a madman you know. It's a bit more to it and Mac has been watching the house and inside move and I know it's doing it. It's a book of Eli which means eternity is lying and keep saying about uor son. There's a few more things that it means is a proactive person says he has a s*** together he's on the prowl all these dumb things he says my son says I've had enough of this s*** it's like 10 million times in normal tolerance of any Satanist which is way up there here and I'm a young person and I can't stand you anymore you don't care so you're done. She says it like this you're done I know how to fight and it's the match my son says it's always been the max and you're a Mac so he's a gas but that's what it is and you're his brother. So it's going on like this we're going to use our smarts and tell you what to do. Back off our son Tommy f or you're all done

Soo as I have almost posted every artwork of my current Vtm character, here's one of my old character, Nico. I love this boy so much you can't even imagine. He is also the only original PC that survived the first adventure in my storytellers Berlin by Night chronicle.
Born in 1997 the Rollbergsiedlung in Berlin to a disabled single mother, Nico Lehmann's start in life was underprivileged but still full of love, being taken care of by his grandparents. In his youth, he was bullied for his big size and meek demeanor, so his teachers recommended for him to start a sport and Nico started visiting a local boxing club and got acquainted with the wrong crowd. Trying to fit in and unable to say no, Nico got pulled into the underworld and got hooked on many different drugs, his drug of choice becoming heroin. Since he refused to commit crimes or become a dealer himself, he payed his dealer with his body and consequently became a streetwalker to fund his drug habit.
One evening, he caught the eye of club owner (and malkavian vampire) Max Stirner while offering himself in a Berlin gay club, washed up and high as a kite. Max saw his potential and decided to take him under his wing, letting the young man drink from his blood and helping him become a high-end escort. They started blackmailing Nicos clients with videos they took in secrecy, earning loads of cash together. But Max's plan was crossed when his coterie mate, Maelys Croucant, had to settle a score with him and snatched his ghoul up right from under his nose. Nico fell head over heels in love with the beautiful Toreador woman. Freshly groomed, dressed in a satin gown and in the arms of his eternal lover, that's how Nico took his last breath.

9 Anime to Watch When You Want to Feel Like 👇🏾
Tumblr media
Whether you're emotionally dead inside and just need that extra oomf to feel anything or if you just need a good cry, below are a few short series/movies to check out. Trigger warnings are included but, let's be serious, the triggers are what we're watching for, no?
Tumblr media
A Silent Voice (movie) - this is a good reminder that we do not exist in a bubble. Our actions and the way we treat others leave a mark on them and apologies don't always remedy that.
Sub/Dub | Netflix ‼️ TW: bullying, grief/loss, suicide or self harm, anxiety
Tumblr media
Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day (series but I think there's a movie summary as well) - this examines the kind of grief that clings to you when you can't move on from loss. The story focuses on a group of people who continue to mourn their childhood friend years after her passing.
Sub/Dub | Funimation, Netflix ‼️ TW: major character death, grief/loss, guilt, attempted SA
Tumblr media
Banana Fish (series) - I worry that I may only be able to watch this show once because it's so compelling but I cry about it regularly (literally, peep the blog) despite being inherently emotionally unavailable. The story follows a young gang leader who unknowingly stumbles onto a full blown conspiracy when he assumes possession of a drug given to him by a dying man. It's gritty and action packed while also being intense and vulnerable but it is not something I'd watch without taking a hard look at the trigger warnings.
Sub | Prime Video ‼️ TW: major character death(s), grief/loss, PTSD, implied CSA, implied SA, sexual harassment, military conflict, physical violence, trauma, substance abuse, gore, sex trafficking (all ages), suicide, gun & knife violence, gang violence, implied incest, incarceration, coarse language
Tumblr media
To Your Eternity (series) - how do we interpret and explain life to something that has just blinked into existence? This series explores the journey of a newly formed immortal being as it begins to experience everything that this planet has to offer. It bears witness to the good and evil in other beings through forging clumsy connections with them as it becomes wise in the way of the world and also shows how, as we survive, we carry with us those that we've loved.
Sub/Dub | HBO Max ‼️ TW: major character death, grief/loss, physical violence
Tumblr media
Ride Your Wave (movie) - even fated love comes to an end eventually.
Sub/Dub | HBO Max ‼️ TW: major character death, grief/loss
Tumblr media
Clannad (series) - a story about how opening yourself up to others can bring fullness to your life and a myriad of other experiences and emotions you wouldn't have.
Sub/Dub | HiDive ‼️ TW: implied death, illness, grief/loss, substance abuse
Tumblr media
Angel Beats (series) - no major character death warning because all of the characters are already dead! Welcome to the afterlife where young souls are fighting like hell to avoid the great beyond... beyond.
Sub/Dub | Netflix ‼️ TW: implied death, gun violence, knife violence, murder, gore, portrayal of death (repeatedly), bullying (arguably)
Tumblr media
Kotaro Lives Alone (series) - Despite following the daily life of an overly polite 4 year old with the diction of an honorably chivalrous samurai, this show's innocuous story telling will have you ugly crying.
Sub/Dub | Netflix ‼️ TW: implied abuse (child and/or domestic), implied verbal abuse, neglect, stalking, grief/loss, implied death, implied mental illness
Tumblr media
Terror in Resonance (series) - this is a psychological thriller and social critique on a lost generation. It follows two young boys who employ the use of widespread fear to bring focus and sympathy to their mission, one they desperately feel is worth risking their freedom and lives for. This may be the least likely to be a tear jerker on this list but worth a watch.
Sub/Dub | Funimation ‼️ TW: major character death, grief/loss, gun violence, bombing, implied murder/suicide, terrorism, child abuse
