I don't wanna further hijack that poor poll, but the thing about Harrow's schizophrenia is that it's canon. The author has confirmed it, and shared that it's based on her own experience.

It's a pretty obscure bit of canon, so of course there's no shame in not already knowing, but that's why I'm so obnoxiously persistent about letting people know.

Whatever else is up with Harrow, autism or cptsd or any number of likely headcanons, she is also schizophrenic. I feel like that's too important to be handwaved away as a difference of opinion.

Kirbtober Day 24: AU

[In which Panic posts art for her AU which she's never explained before.]

reflecting on some of the posts i've seen dropped in the jgy tags over the last week, i've come to the conclusion that some of you just asked chatgpt to summarize the plot or character relationships for you, and decided that was as good as reading the book. why form your own coherent opinions when you can just ask the robot that lives in your phone to do it for you?

Shout out to @re-dracula and specifically Felix Trench for today’s entry. I haven’t run across any other Renfield whose immediate introduction was so placid and full of erudite implication. It helps that he’s reading directly from the actual book and so can’t feasibly be forced through the lens of Raving Kooky Madman that scads of adaptations have jumped to. He sells being wholly rational in just that one line. More, he rightly sounds a bit like someone trying to soothe a huffy landlord.*

*Which deserves an equal kudos to Jonathan Sims dipping subtly back into the ‘me, an intellectual,’ tone for Dr. Seward

Do you think Catherine and Arthur of Aragon had sexual intercourse?

well, yes!

 “This smells incredible,” he murmured, entirely enamored by the utterly rote carnival food before him. The spices were rare and expensive, broken out only for the Laudation, but it was standard. You could find this here every year. To the people of the city, it was fairly unremarkable.

To Gon, though, it represented an entire world he had never known.

Gon took his first tentative bite, mumbling an incomprehensible mess of vowels and consonants before managing to get out the word “HOT!” as he flapped his hands. Presumably, that made the burning hurt less, somehow. The human mind is a strange thing.

Killua couldn't help but feel a little warm inside. The moment couldn't have been complete without Gon fumbling somehow. Killua was happy, because he was making someone else happy. It still felt weird to him, but each time it happened it was easier and more rewarding than the last.

“It's so good!” Gon said happily, after having let the frozen air cool his burnt tongue. The candied sugar left a hint of residue to Gon's lips, lending them the color of burnt amber. “But didn't you say we shouldn't do this?”

“Consider it payment for uh…” Killua trailed off and looked down at his feet. “You know, for putting up with me. I know I’ve been kind of a dick the past several days. You’ve helped me tend to my wounds and let me lean on you and stuff, you deserve better than what I've been giving you.”

Gon’s body moved with graceful speed, planting a kiss on Killua’s cheek. His lips were sticky, and now Killua’s cheek was sticky, too. “Things are stressful and you're in a lot of pain. You're doing great.”

Karma tl really was cooked up in a lab specifically for me. Like it's THE Lulusuza au. It's like they read my fics and said damn girl, this is good. Let's make it official.

I wanted to attempt some kind of cuddle pile of sorts-

Dusk is kinda like a weighted blanket for Eclipse. Helps him not get nightmares. Nova just likes to be close.

Can I ask why you would say Poseidon or Hades for Helena? I’ve been thinking about this over and over since the new thing came out.

Honestly the real answer here is "I want Helena to be a Big Three child for the drama and because it does genuinely fit her, but she's pretty clearly not a Zeus kid so I need to figure out whether Poseidon or Hades fits her better."

The meta answer is that her general personality fits being a child of Poseidon more but her history and style of vigilantism fit being a child of Hades more. Because both godly parents would fit her, I'm focusing more on which one fits her better for the purposes of the fic.

The slightly more technical answer is that she's going to be a Hunter of Artemis in this AU, so it technically doesn't matter whether she's a demigod or a clear-sighted mortal who caught Artemis' eye, but I wanted her to be a demigod. However since she's a Hunter, I have a little more leeway in how I want to address her history, personality, skillset, and motivations in context of her godly parentage. Hence, the indecision.

Sorry I couldn't provide a really in-depth answer here like I've been able to for everyone else, but it's hard to give a proper explanation when I haven't thought deeply enough about that section to have quite figured it out yet.
