How SHOULD cc!philza make his character a better person regarding c!wilbur’s death?

(This post takes it as a given that you see c!phil killing c!wilbur as morally bad. Now, I’m not the best at deriving morals, but if you need help with that because “wilbur told him to!” here’s a reminder that suicide is something we want to prevent in IRL society and when you discover a person is suicidal, you are taught to reach out to them and direct them to professional help. Not kill them.) (I tried to make this post ADHD-friendly with the colors -- reposting without bold because that made it harder to read imo.) So we’re all aware cc!phil saying stuff like “Wilbur was too far gone!” and “he had destructive tendencies as a child” is pretty controversial and doesn’t make his character any more moral/good (which is definitely his motive in saying that). But what would be a good way for him to resolve this major Bad Act his character has done that would make everyone happy, AKA not villainize c!wilbur and his mental illness? The problem with cc!phil’s attempts is that they are all past-focused; they all attempt to justify his act, (one that some people would see as unjustifiable) instead of repent for it. In order to make his character a better person, c!phil must first admit that it was wrong. cc!phil likely avoids this because it makes it concrete that his character has done bad things, but it would actually make him a better person, even before “repenting” -- I’m sure we’ve all been taught that admitting your mistakes is better than not admitting your mistakes. c!phil must express that assisting in his son’s suicide was morally wrong and he feels bad not just because of how the act impacted him, but because of how he treated his mentally ill son. After that, he should obviously apologize to c!wilbur. c!wilbur may still think that he “deserved” to die, so this would be a great opportunity for c!phil to help c!wilbur’s mental health and affirm his care for his son. Along the way, he should actively seek information about c!wilbur’s situation in Pogtopia. That would also demonstrate his care, help his character understand c!wilbur better, and provide external motivation for him to realize he messed up.

I thought there would be more to say, but really that’s it. TL;DR: c!phil just has to reevaluate his past actions and apologize.

The biggest struggle here is actually having a catalyst for c!phil to re-evaluate his moral judgement on himself. Maybe he could talk to a different character about it and they would go “you killed your son? that’s fked up.” and he would go “but he asked me to!” “dude that’s even more fcked up. he needed help, man.” And that could be the catalyst for c!phil realizing he hadn’t been understanding c!wilbur’s mental illness properly. Then he could try to find out the truth about Pogtopia, which would eventually lead to him realizing he needs to apologize, all of which would show growth as a character and affirm good morals because he’d be willing to better himself. Rather than the current situation, where the man is losing an argument and making up stuff to prove he’s right rather than accepting that he’s wrong.

Not a lot because ur gonna get fucking murdered, ur not white or a male, sorry them’s the rules

solution: set house on fire

Excellent, nice job Dean

I mean it works

“how many things survived cuz people believed in them” with the fire house? nice line, I like that line

Sam: calls them and tells them he’s a producer

Dean: puts a dead fish in their backseat

and they both laugh and call truce that makes me happy

hey the prank war thing was just...a prank war. no foreshadowing, just character relationships? that’s new

yippie kayak it’s wrap-up time:

1. Ok, the style and vibe of this episode? so good, so fun, so interesting. Lore is really cool, they leave it open-ended, all good. Like the sheer power of myth and people’s belief? ooo good shit

I have just realized that sounds like vague foreshadowing for the ~future~

however, I think this is built kinda like avatar where you build the characters in terms of a large goal, and tbh, I really like how it’s being done

2. actually speaking of: non-plot episodes, where both get a chance to shine, are fun, interesting, and honestly quite cool, while plot episodes are a bit more heavy, loaded and exposition-y. I hope that changes in the future tbh. The bible river dale energy is quite possibly the thing I’m not as hyped about, although that might be because I thankfully don’t have any religious trauma

the church scares me

3. Sam and Dean? good great, excellent bonding time. You have to wonder if the prank war was just Dean’s way of trying to reach out to his little brother, and tbh, it did kinda work. Anyway, they were both really fun this episode, both got good moments, 10/10 love these characters

4. The fact that they slipped and called Dean jensen makes me wonder how much the budget actually was. Like I saw on pinterest it was 20,000 entirely(which isn’t even minimum wage) and I could not find any kind of sources, so I’m inclined to believe that was very very fake. However, it’s definitely low budget(wikipedia says that no one wanted to take kripke up on this) and the fact that they managed to make something this good is a testament to the skill of the entire team working on this season. I cannot speak for the later seasons tho, as I have obviously not seen them.

5. Please. A girl character. Something. I’m begging you. 

I know damn well it doesn’t happen and that makes me sad

Damn I had some thoughts this time around, that’s pretty fun. till next time~ i guess. Time to go put mom’s bday cake back into the fridge and sleep.

Find out about Atumu

Under the cut is the answer to 60 fun questions about Atumu. All the answers to the questions you never had.

1: What’s your OCs favorite color?

I don’t think he has a favourite colour, but lately he’s been a fan of the colour blue. 

2: Where does your OC work?

As a vagrant, he doesn’t really have a place of work? He’s got plenty of skills, so he can generally fit in about anywhere. However, he doesn’t have any formal schooling or official documentation of qualifications, so like...work is typically hard to get for him. He often finds himself doing either housework or farmwork for room and board.

3: What’s your OCs favorite food?

Oh gosh, all of these questions are so hard for Atumu. He...uh... he has a very bad relationship with food. So It’s hard to say that he has any favourite food? Pretty recently, he’s discovered frozen prepackaged foods like pizza rolls that have made him just about melt. But the only reason he was okay with eating it was because the family he was staying with referred to it as “not real food,” thus leading him to believe it’s not really comestible for the average person, and thus absolving him of the guilt of eating food that might otherwise feed others.

Alternatively, he is the only one who is physically capable of consuming the toxic, noxious waste that his brother cooks. I’m pretty sure he got food poisoning from that though. Either way, he’ll eat it without complaint and say??? believe?? it is good? Don’t know what’s going on in his head, but he’s been told and is convinced it’s good, even if it’s hazardous waste.

4: Does your OC prefer paper or plastic?

5: How old is your OC?

Uhh.....old as balls. Several thousand years old? But he’s got really spotty memory, so he can usually only remember things in the past couple hundred years.

6: Does your OC have any supernatural powers?

UHHHHH!!! Basically everything about him? This will probs be answered in all the other questions.

7: Is your OC in a relationship?

No. [but I like to imagine he has a pretty cute non-canonical quasi-platonic friendship with a certain fellow water lover]

8: What are some of your OCs strengths?

Literally everything? He’s OP as fuck. One notable one that recurs is his cooking ability? He’s very, very, very, very good at cooking and what he cooks is not anything of this world. It’s very good.

9: What are some of your OCs weaknesses? 

His...rationality? He has a hard time seeing anything in anyone else’s perspective and he has a pretty darn warped sense or reality, so a lot of his reasoning (though perfectly logical in his head) is tremendously vague and makes no sense to literally anyone else.

10: What is your OCs favorite outfit?

Clothes? That fit. And cover his body.

You’d be surprised how hard that is to come by for him.

He’s a fan of formal wear. But in general he likes clothes that fit well and are comfortable. 

11: What animal does your OC relate to?

Idk if he personally relates to them, but I relate them to him. Otters. Moist boys.

12: Is your OC sexually active?

Yes, but not by choice.

13: What is your OCs earliest memory?

Oof, this is a hard one. He’s got that good ol’ spotty memory. I’m sure he gets flashbacks of his childhood as a slave. So if you’re counting when triggered, his earliest memories are probably from the dungeons when he was looking out for both Atamu and Atomu, fighting for survival.

14: Does your OC have a cell phone? If so, what kind?

OH BOY. HE SURE DOES NOT. [not that he’s never had a phone. But phones don’t usually last with this boy.]

15: What makes your OC angry?

It’s been a while since he’s been angry, but I guess it depends on the scenario. He is sometimes short on patience, especially when dealing with people who have harmed his family and are ignorant of the fact. He hates anyone who hurts his family.

16: When is your OCs favorite time of year?

Summer. 

17: How long can your OC hold their breath?

Hours. Fucking hours. He’s a hard one to drown.

18: What kind of underwear does your OC wear?

DUDE. ANY. I think he’s usually freeballin’ - but legit. Any. None is also fine.

19: Does your OC prefer plaid or polka dots?

Probably plain? But plaid seems okay. He’s not a picky guy, and clothes that fit don’t come by very frequently.

20: What’s your OCs favorite kind of pizza?

pizza rolls

21: Who is your OCs best friend?

idk if best friend, but most important person in his life is his little brother and God, Atemu. 

22: Has your OC ever killed someone?

23: Whats your OCs biggest secret?

That’s a mystery to me too, my friend.

24: What does your OC smell like?

In all likelihood? Dirt.

25: What time of year does your OC prefer?

Didn’t I answer this already? He’s a warm summer day kind of boy. He’s used to the heat.

26: Is your OC a human or an animal? (or something else idk) 

He’s....a human........ despite all signs to the contrary

27: What languages does your OC speak?

All of them. Literally all of them. 

28: Does your OC like anime?

29: Can your OC swim?

Ha ha ha! His element is literally water. He can swim nonstop for days. He’s fine in the water.

30: What does your OC choose to do about the, er, hair down there?

31: Does your OC believe in fairies? 

Doesn’t need to believe in them. He’s interacted with them. 

32: Did your OC go to college? What did they major in?

He might have gone to college once or twice over the years? I think before all the bad shenanigans started, he did get a degree in Financing, I believe. But the documentation of all that stuff is long gone, so there’s nothing to formally say he was ever educated in any way. Anyhow, for Atumu, it’s not like he could gain much more imperical knowledge from additional schooling. He might be able to gain some social skills though? Haha, lord knows he needs that.

33: Are your OCs parents dead? 

Hella dead. They been dead for thousands of years.

34: Is your OC religious?

Kind of? His brother is kind of...God.... But also there are a lot of canonical gods that also run the universe and beyond - but you don’t need to believe in them. They’re just. Around. He does believe his brother is his God though.

35: How flexible is your OC?

36: What turns your OC on?

37: What was your OCs first word?

gosh idk. I don’t think anyone was there to take note.

38: Does your OC have any pets?

Does his little brother count?

39: Who is your OCs biggest enemy?

Not necessarily enemy but let’s see. Atamu is currently the self-declared mortal enemy? Just hates Tumu with a burning passion of a thousand suns. But the anger and hatred is unreciprocated. Yumi is his clone whose purpose was to kill and replace him.. originally. He’s since let that objective go, and they’re pretty good bros now. Real enemies/bad guys in the story might be the President (though he’s just hungry for knowledge and not necessarily evil... he’s just kind of evil). Governments in general seem to be the biggest enemy of Atumu and the gang, as they are the source of most of their woes.

40: What is the craziest thing your OC has done?

UM... WELL. Take a fucking pick.

He’s been strung to a helicopter by a rubber band. He’s been a lawyer against his own brother (my fave arc of his actually). He has gone through an entire junkyard trying to find the pieces of a Portuguese robot version of his brother. He’s been the mate of a nest of nagas. He’s been vivisected (oh boy yeah, forgot about that one). He’s been experimented on by multiple governments...multiple times. He’s made coconut ice cream (wild, I know).

He’s got lots of adventures, so take a fuckin pick, babes.

41: What is your OCs motto about life?

“How can I be of use?”

42: Does your OC drink coffee or tea?

He’ll drink whatever you give him, but he prefers water.

43: Who is your OCs biggest hero?

I don’t think he looks up to anyone (haha physically he can’t really - geddit - cuz he’s a giant).

44: What color eyes does your OC have?

Super green.

45: Does your OC like reading?

Not sure if he likes it so much. He doesn’t really read for pleasure. He’s pretty well read though. Knows them encyclopaedias and dictionaries and science and math textbooks cover to cover. That good reading.

46: Is your OC loyal?

Would die for you. Has died for you already probably.

47: Does your OC tolerate violence?

Yeah.

48: What social class is your OC from?

He’s a slave... but like. He could’ve been king. He could’ve been God. Probably should’ve been God.

49: What country was your OC born in?

Egypt.

50: Does your OC cry easily?

Nah. Seldom if ever.

51: What is your OCs favorite genre of music?

He doesn’t know too much about music nowadays. But he’s pretty good with like. Instruments. That you can play. With your hands or mouth, you know. Doesn’t know much about synthesizers or electronic stuff or fancy cool effects.

52: How does your OC feel about insects?

He’s alright with them? They’re a good source of protein?

53: What is your OCs sexual orientation?

He’s sexually oriented away.

54: Does your OC smoke?

Used to? It’s been several hundred years, I feel like, since he’s had a smoke. But he’s not opposed to smoking. Just never really gets the chance.

55: What gender is your OC?

Male.

56: What kind of clothes does your OC wear?

He’ll wear anything he comes across. Anything you give him to wear. He doesn’t really know what’s “with the times” though. So even though he might feel embarrassed wearing some stuff, he’ll trust you if you tell him that it’s a normal thing for him to wear.

But given the choice, he likes really to wear loose fitting comfortable clothes cuz he doesn’t really have clothes his size. If he could get well fit formal clothes, he does like that.

57: Would you call your OC adventurous? 

Dude, all he does is go on adventures. Idk if this means he’s brave or like? Willing to go on adventures? Nah, it’s just...he kind of has to. Some people choose adventure. Some have adventure thrust upon them. Atumu is the latter.

58: Is your OC introverted or extroverted?

He’s an ambivert? He won’t try too hard to put himself out there socially, esp because he’s pretty socially clueless. But also he doesn’t really have social anxiety at all, so if he’s not talking, it’s not because he’s shy or nervous. He’s just... there’s no reason he needs to approach you.

59: What is the first thing that someone would notice about your OC?

His height? His physique? And then probably his eyes - they’re hard not to notice.

60: Does your OC enjoy nature?

He sure spends a lot of time in it... spending months walking through deserts... weeks in tundras... some days in rain forests...
