BEELZEBUB IS COMPLEX AS AN 4 COURSE MEAL

WARNING: spoilers of Beelzebub cards and mentions of cannibalism

Beelzebub carefree person is mostaly an persona, build, created and crafted to protect his people.

While yes there is pieces of him in there you guys need to undestand this is not the all of Beelzebub, this persona is an parrarel to an other King who also uses one to protect his Kingdom Leviathan. One is view as the flawless King and the other as the wondering King when you see that no wonder both get paried up well (from Beelzebub part) and no wonder Beelzebub likes playing and teasing him Beelzebub knows they both acting personas and gets friendly with him. But only Beelzebub has the full grasp of the persona as he is more able to self-reflect while Leviathan can only deney his mistakes and real personality to himself.

Yes i see Beelzebub been able to grasp on the fact that his personality is mainly an persona, and in fact he has showed us the signs of his real self. His possesivnes of MC is one of they.

His possesivnes going overborad at times of anything in involving mc shold it be not been weird for somebody so carefree? But dont forget this is the king of Gluttony we talking about, and one of the things he has been dreprived and had to escape during these years to protect his people has been the one thing he craves the most...an deep emotional bond of love. I mean look at how much care his people have from him , from doing parades when he is in his kingdom to even wanting to get eaten by him in death they truely love him and he cannot fully reciprocate even tought he wants, he has to keep the carefree persona on to keep they in arms leghts even tought he wants more, an meal of overwhelming love that can never be fully eating....what an pain for the King of Gluttony. And there is MC somebody that is so protected by the other Kings and yourself that the chances of getting hurt by angels due to been conect with you are way more minimal. So Beelzebub shows more of his true self to her, somebody who long for love, somebody who is obessed with MC somebody with overwhelming of feeling not been able to show for an long time. These emotions are even more painfull when you put along with Beelzebub hivemind (may explain this concenpt in another post) deaths.

Beelzebub deaths are treated with with an diffrent sorrow of an lost one, they are treated as rather as loss of an piece of yourself. The motive why i reffer as hivemind is because even if him and his clones share the main concept of been Beelzebub they still are individuals self of him with their one experriencies. The motive why Beelzebub is so protectives of their tumbs is not only cause he did want to protect the pieces of himself that interected with Solomon protecting his memories of him but it is also because Beelzebub dont want these parts of himself to never disappear. He is attached to the conections and memories they have.

While you may say that his ADHD may make difficult for him to remenber, if there is proof there is still way for him to know it existeded. The evecidencies may lay under ground and his clouded mind may be haze but there is not deneying it still there inside him.

Other sign of his true self is how his persona interects wtih Bael, the carefree self putting all the work and going to who knows were. One of the intercctions of his true self is when Bael find his other body dead. The brief way Beelzebub looks to his body show to us how he feel at loss of his piece of self, with an deep sorrow of only been able to carry it last wish. Another ones is both on his event and on Belphegor event that shows how more observent that he is than first viewed and we even saw his emotional self reacting to the death of his people.

With that been said we can see that he is really way more than first appears. I also think he is my top 1 of Kings with potential to be yandere but that for another time.

Imagine slowly becoming nonhuman. Something ancient and alien is infecting you, slowly replacing your tissue. You've been told that there are some treatments to keep more of your humanity for longer, but you'll lose it eventually nomatter what.

Every day you feel it slowly spreading throughout you. Slowly taking bits and pieces of you and replacing them with this alien biomechanical body. At first people act like you're going to die, but you realize you're not going to die. Mabye it would be easier if you did.

You lose things internally at first. Your mind starts working slightly differently. Then you eat for the last time. Sleep for the last time. Make love for the last time. You slowly lose these parts of you. There's a point in time when you can't pass for human without wearing clothing on most of your body, and then eventually you can only pass at night, and then not at all.

Your freinds started out supportive but mournful. But some of them tended to get more and more uncomfortable around you as you kept getting less and less human. Some stayed with you of course, but some seem more distant now, and others seem to not want to interact at all.

The more you become comfortable in your new body, and deal with it better, the more other people seem to be mourning you as if you were dead. Your family doesn't even want to talk to you anymore. It feels like everyone acts like it would have been far more convenient if the transformation killed you. If they could mourn you in peace.

Your new body feels so strange. You're mostly covered in a metalic shell now, with little bits of flesh between the gaps. Your build is slender and sexless now, your legs have three sets of joints like a predatory animal, your face looks like a strange reflection of a gas mask. The only thing that remains of your old body is long black hair flowing from your head. For whatever reason you don't mind the change. You think so differently now then you used to, you feel like a diffrent person, but it's hard to think of it as bad, it's who you are, and you can't bring yourself to hate you.

Eventually you run into someone who was your girlfriend back when you were human. You realize it's been awhile since you've talked to her. You have new freinds now, people who are like you or who are used to people like you. You realize she could never be your girlfriend again, but she could still be your freind. You talk to her a bit, and she seems to like you this way, she hugs you, it feels so warm with how cold your new body is, you didn't expect her to want to hug this version of you.

Jeff Satur in his own Words - #Legend interview

Q: Are they any ongoing projects or creative works you're focusing on right now?

J: These days it's mostly festivals. I also have a show coming soon and there'll be an EP in english as well as new songs. This year I'm focusing quite a lot on music. Last year the work was very varied. This year there also will be concerts. Towards the end of the year I'll be producing a series called "Happy ending".

Q: Is there a song of yours that you feel especially connected to?

J: If I had to pick a song that feels like the origin of many things it would be "Why don't you stay". It marked the beginning of a journey, a spark that unexpectedly set many things in motion. Back then after exploring various carreers I returned to acting full-on. People forgot that I was once a singer 10 years ago, things like that. That song brought back my identity as a singer and reminded people "Oh, this is that Jeff Satur".

Q: Your music videos often carry hidden messages. How involved are you in the creation of your music videos?

J: I'd recommend watching my latest music video 'Ride or Die'. It was one of the most exhausting shoots I've ever done. You'll see why once it's out. Recently, I've been listening a lot of Elvis\laufey along with jazz, blues and soul with old-school vibes. It makes me feel refreshing and breath easier. (Thanks for answering but not the question- Risu)

Q: Do you have any plans to release an international album in the future?

J: I've been working on songs with a producer in Sweden and there are quite a few we've written. The opening track for the EP, in English is Ride or Die. Ride or Die is like a bird without legs - it has to keep flying because stopping means death. The song is faster than anything I've done before. Most of my tracks are slow or mid-tempo, this one is truly upbeat. I think it's going to be so much fun to perform live and hope everyone will rock out of the hook.

Q: We've noticed that your concertfashion is always fun and fancy. Where do the ideas behind these looks come from?

J: Usually, I just wear what I bought that day because there's no choice. Just kidding. I want every show I perform whether it's the setlist or the performance itself to be unique, not just the same show repeated over and over. I don't see it as simply playing a concert or anything like that. For me it's about creating a fresh show everytime. Even outfits, like, what will I wear today? Things like that. It's the fun in deciding wheter tomorrow I want to wear the same kind of clothes or stay in my comfortzone. Honestly, I'm a person who get bored easily. Even with the setlist. So I always want to make it diffrent and unique. For each show I gather references and brief the team. For instance, if I perform in the North, I want to incorporate elements that reflect the North region, add it as a gimmick while staying true to myself.

Q: If you could collaborate with any artist in the world, who would it be?

J: I'd like to work with Elvis though he is no longer with us, but truly still willing to work with him. His comeback era is so inspiring, it's magical. Singing alongside him would have been incredible and a huge experience for me.

Q: Your song 'Rain Wedding' has recived great feedback. Could you share a bit about the creative process behind this song?

J: Actually the song 'Rain Wedding' something I wrote a long time ago. I had told my fans, 'Khun Wan-sao' - You know, there's going to be a song about a wedding, about the rain. That's how it started before evolving into the version you hear now. I completly reworked it, keeping only the chords and the first verse. I deconstructed the song delving into the lyrics along with recapture that feeling of 'Thongkham' and bring them back into the song then wave it into the melody. This song, I collaborated with khun Vivi who's both a songwriter and a writer. Then, her skill is truly brings an added elegance to the song. Then, I incorporated my own elements, tweaking certain parts and adding new ones. I remember that the phrase 'Hug Jao Lai' was there from the demo version. It just came out naturally. So was 'Yam Muea Fon The Long Ma' which has been part of the song since the very beginning, which I produced it, naturally. These became signature lines that I kept intact. The whole process was incredibly fun! And it's incredible how many people have gone to see the movie and shared their thoughts, saying: "Wow, it feels completly diffrent!". Watching it changed the meaning of the song entirely. It's reached a point where people watch the film just to discover how the song's meaning evolves. Initially, it's a love song, but later it becomes... something else.

Q: As someone who has overcome challenges: What advice would you give to those still searching for themselves?

J: The diffrence lies in self-awerness, I belive. Often we live under pressure without realising it, pressured by our own expectation and the others'. It's a normal part of life no matter the profession. But the moment we become aware of it we free ourselves from the unspoken rules of life. That awerness allows us to move forward without constantly worrying about whether something is "good enough" for this person or that person. Sometimes we forget that the most important thing to focus in life is whether we, ourselves are happy with what we've done. Success is fine, it's how society defines who has "made it" and who hasn't. But it's not necessary for us to strive to meet those. It's just life, and the question is: Do we enjoy what we're doing? No one can hold onto a throphy forever, at some point, we all have to set it down. So enjoy success and enjoy failure as well. In the end success and failure don't really exist. What remains is simply whether we loved and found happiness in it.

Q: Who is your #Legend?

J: It's still Elvis for me. He continues to inspire me deeply such as how he performed on stage. I watch his performances repeatedly and it's not just about singing or acting. He poured his souls into his shows. Even if I didn't understand any about music but I belive I still feel the spirit he conveyed without the need of knowledge to understand. That's what we, as artists need to preserve. I'm working in an industry driven by a huge amount of trends. The best thing we can do is not let those trends control us. Staying true to who we are and creating art that genuinely represents us is vital. That's what Elvis taught me, learning from mistakes and be the real artist that truly communicate to audiences, with heart.

Q: Could you tell us about 'Khun Wan-Sao'? Could you share a memorable story involving your fans?

J: Hmm, what truly impressed me is seeing Khun Wan-Sao and other fans following us to diffrent places even to provinces I'd never been to before. I aimed to visit all four regions of Thailand seeking festivals that truly represents each regions. Sometimes, I confuse about the names like Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, but still want to reach every part of the country. What's heartwarming is people came sang along our songs and some even showed up just to hear us perform. That's incredibly touching and it's moment that reminds me why I wanted to be a singer. And it's because of the privilege given to connect with fans from all over.

[a-griffin-in-the-sky]

Here’s something to chew on: male pattern aggression and the internalized misogyny women carry are kinda like reflections of each other two sides of the same messed-up system.

Male pattern aggression is that raw, often violent way men act out their power struggles, fueled by the need to dominate and control. It’s loud, visible, and damaging.

Internalized misogyny, on the other hand, is quieter but just as harmful,in diffrent ways.It’s when women take on the negative messages thrown at them by society and start policing themselves and each other, doubting their worth, competing over men’s approval, or even putting down other women.

Both come from the same root: a culture built to keep power in certain hands and keep everyone else stuck. The aggression pushes from the outside; the internalized misogyny pushes from within.

The kicker? Both hurt women. Male aggression wounds bodies and spirits, while internalized misogyny chips away at confidence and solidarity.

Recognizing how these two feed off each other is crucial if we want to break free from the cycle. It’s not about blaming women for the internalized stuff it’s about understanding how deep the system runs and fighting it together.

But look, let’s be real: male pattern aggression is not just some annoying behavior. It’s the backbone of the worst violence women face , femicide, rape, assault.

Internalized misogyny , it’s toxic and it hurts, but it’s notlife-threatening(well maybe in a few ways that are self inflected but im talking more about ,outward aggression). It’s a symptom of living in a world built on male aggression and oppression.

Male pattern aggression is the predator lurking behind so many stories of violence and fear. It’s what makes walking home alone at night feel dangerous. It’s the reason women have to strategize their lives around safety.

We have to call that out for what it is the deadliest, most urgent threat to women’s lives and freedom. Internalized misogyny only exists because this system forces women to survive in a world shaped by male aggression.

What do you gyns think?

[anotherstorycomic]

Oh! I'm sure you've explained this before somewhere, but to go into more depth: how do the board of directors/political parties work? Is there smaller scale politics? How are diffrent people affected by - and how do they feel about - the system?

I went a lot more into depth, this helped me develop a bit more of the governmental system, so thank you!

I had to put some thought into how the Board of Directors was formed, so I broke down what the regional governments of Araelia would have been before the elsinium deficit event... It's a lot of text, but I'll attach the full section from my comprehensive worldbuilding document under the cut. It references Araelian territory names, which I'm not sure if I've shared before... it may or may not mean anything to readers other than me... but I'll get maps viewable soon, either here or on the website once it's live!

(TL;DR answer) the Board is a large agency beyond just the 23 reps we saw, with ties to pre-EDE government groups from all over Araelia, a large group of people are in charge of public polls, the system is a combined representative/direct democratic one, and people's pre-EDE origin may reflect how they view the system because of the issue of wealth redistribution or cultural shifts.

The following government systems were found on Araelia before the Global Unification Act:

the United East Araelian Confederation (UEAC), a representative democratic republic covering Rocha, Wennt, Olize, Ascher, Shill, Caramon, Melin, Lussique, Sylla, Mican, Sable, and Ecre

the DNWA (Democracy of Northern West Araelia), a direct democracy hosted by a group of elected proctors, covering Indure, N’ary, Citra, Pearrock, and Celazon

The Simorian Reserve, a capitalist oligarchy managed by representatives of Barnin, Rewloff, Tsymet, Amph, and Ecnen

the DCWA (Democracy of Central West Araelia), a representative democratic confederation covering Irchid, Byzandor, and Centra

the SBR (Saffshore-Bisster Republic), a representative democracy covering Saffshore and Bisster

the Vermiran Watch, an informal elected group of power and respect in Vermira

the Republic of Garrant, a democratic republic within Garrant

the Marst Ruling Division, a lax system of aristocracy with spiritual roots within Marst

the Nation of Fulvous, a direct democracy

the Cantal Republic, a cooperative parliamentary system in mainland Cantal

the Heart of Cantal, a shared spiritual theocracy on the islands of Cantal

the Njord Government, an independent parliamentary democracy

Dovil Orators of the Will, a judicial oligarchy based heavily in East Araelian spiritualism

the High Courts of Sacris, a judicial oligarchy based in East Araelian spiritualism

the Onder Government, a parliamentary democracy

Representatives of these systems that sought refuge in the Megatower were arranged in a temporary council to write the Global Unification Act, which would create a temporary combined government within the Megatower. Once the Megatower became the new way of life and the chances of returning to Araelia slimmed, the unified governments were forced to create a new system, as the standing government systems divided served no purpose without their lands. As democratic systems were the most common on Araelia, a democratic system was agreed upon. Members of each former political faction were offered jobs adapting pre-EDE law into Megatower law.

The major pre-EDE groups, the UEAC, DNWA, DCWA, Simorian Reserve, and SBR organized together fairly seamlessly. Their faction-based representative democracy meshed well, despite their diverse backgrounds of location. The Republic of Garrant, Nation of Fulvous, Cantal Republic, Njord Government, and Onder Government also had little trouble adapting their systems to match. The Vermiran Watch declined the opportunity to join the Board of Directors, as their positions were very specific to the Vermiran landscape and traditional society. The Heart of Cantal became a fringe spiritual group rather than a political faction of any kind. The Marst Ruling Division, Dovil Orators of the Will, and High Courts of Sacris all fractured, between those agreeing to join the Board of Directors and its subsidiaries, and those who refused on account of the lack of spiritualism within the Board’s practices. Those from these territories who did join did so on account of bringing the spiritual angle into the government, viewing it as an important part of a collaborative system. Others did not want to “taint” their practices by politicizing them via populism. While there are not formal organized religions on Araelia, strong believers in the concept of the Will, typically from the Dovil-Sacris area, tend to band together and sometimes feel isolated within the tower due to the steep drop in traditional Araelian spiritualism since the EDE.

The Megatower governmental system is democratic, with a combination of representative and direct jurisdiction. All political issues pass by the Board or its many divisions of management for approval. Polls to gauge public happiness and draw information on struggles within the Megatower are carried out once every 20 weeks. Participation in these polls is not compulsory, but is encouraged and many jobs offer incentives to workers who submit proof of poll participation. Polls are broken into sections regarding neighborhood/microlocal issues, community and demographic issues, and overall Megatower issues. Some results regarding tower maintenance are forwarded directly to a team with Umbers Inc. to help focus improvements. Polls include election candidates for new Board members every 6 years. Board members can be re-elected. There are currently no term limits in place for Board members. Freelance representatives are hired incrementally, typically independent researchers in specific developmental fields which affect Megatower economy. These researchers are typically poll workers, who gather local data and pair it with demographics information to determine the needs of certain sectors of the Megatower. These representatives give pitches to the Board with conflicting opinions, and the Board’s job is to determine which best fits the image, safety, and development of the Megatower by way of the established constitution and statutes, evolved versions of those created in the Global Unification Act. This information is interpreted into new Pan-Araelian/Megatower law, and is sometimes forwarded to Umbers Inc. In some rare cases, like in issues of major Megatower development, these decisions could be contested by Umbers Inc. if physical limitations restricted them from being carried out.

The government faced a somewhat superficial division between East and West Araelian representatives after the wealth redistribution took place. Relations between East and West Araelia had historically been pretty friendly. The strain between the two continents politically within the tower is strictly financial. The currency exchange of West Araelian Simor for East Araelian Pell was not favored by West Araelian immigrants, namely those from the Simorian Reserve, which was very capitalistic and placed high value on its currency of choice. The revaluing of currency completely devalued the simorina plant, and the former West Araelian elite hate the non-backed simple paper money system of East Araelian Pell. Trading in their simor for pell felt like sacrilege for many, and the compliance was received with malice. Therefore, the formerly wealthy and politicians hold the division between continents the strongest, whereas the average denizen does not care much about the continental origin of their colleagues.

props to you if you read all this jargon-y info.

P03 from INSCRYPTION

JUSTIFICATION:

"OK SO. HEAR ME OUT. (Major spoilers for Inscryption, esp. Act 3) Basically Po3 is a scrybe of cards that hijacks the videogame world he's in, becomes it's gamemaster and replaces the original scrybes with his uberbots (basically just his barebones ocs that kinda reflect the scrybes personalities, but its mosly just Po3 roleplaying). Curiously though, the uberbot he replaces himself with is named G0lly - a curious, optimistic and somewhat innocent female robot. Po3, despite putting G0lly there, says that she is his least favorite boss, saying 'something about her... innocence. It makes me queasy.'.A diffrent character then states that G0lly is 'such a strange character. Her curiosity is so pure... it's a shame that Po3 burries her so deep'. Anyway i think a bit of robotic gamer estrogen might have helped her in not spreading the nuclear launch codes ❤️

okay fuck it. Aresiba/Rhemi notes I've been thinkin about while trying to draw. under read more bc its big yappin hours:

Despite being the older sister by a couple of years, Siba is shorter than her sister Yahima. and in general has always been the more outgoing/cheerful/The Silly™ of the two

Is very emotionally sensitive/an empath/what have you, and has been before she got the echo. But unfortunately it's always been played as a bit by others/isn't usually taken seriously bc of her fee fees

but that's okay, bc as she got older, she learned to use this as an advantage. now she usually leaves people second guessing her actual prowess and rumors with her personality/way she presents herself. Yeah no dw the blue catgirl can't hurt you I promise. she's just here for the vibes.

Speaking of The Vibes. she has ALWAYS been more dynamis sensetive, and is able to do Rule of Cool wack shit because of it. But due to the NATURE of dynamis, growing up she learned real fast to keep those emotions in check, bc the more intense the feeling for her. the more shit around her warps to reflect that, to a degree.

it's bc of her dynamis sensitivity that she was able to save herself and her sister back in the day, despite being young and untrained in the hunt. this is not an accomplishment that she cheers on bc it was. extremely tragic for her. it's a whole can of worms, sudden dead parents are involved, etc.

Math nerd summoners hate her for being able to do this one cool trick* to summon Shiva for a tragic bi for bi bit *(a cool guitar riff and a dream)

she can probably still use aether-based magics just fine, but it's clear to everyone her shit on bard hit diffrent. our resident Vibe Checker. the Vibe Enrichment.

she also grows into being a VERY GOOD ACTRESS. Siba tends to suppress and hide a lot of things from the scions, to even her closest friends, due to the harsh environment her tribe lives in. and it became a force of habit. So despite giving off the personality of being an open book, she's a surprisingly difficult read.

Although there ARE signs to tell when she's masking or not, and there are people in her life who can tell and who can't. Yahmia and their Grandmother are some of the few who have always been able to read her ticks, even after being gone for so long. Y'shtola, Koana*(to varying degrees), G'raha, Papalymo, Krile(in dt) and Minfilia can clock her from a mile away if paying attention, with varied reactions. Lamaty'i, the Twins, Erenville, Thancred/Urianger, Lyse, Ysale, and the rest of the scions to varying levels tbh can tell the more obvious ones, but still get tricked by the act more often than not. estinien is head empty other than being able to catch a vibe and know when to provide. solidarity. and we love that for him.

Basically how truly perceptive are u willing to be of Catgirl

*Koana is a weird one bc BEFORE they all started leaving tural (he for his studies, her later for her "getting away from my depression only to later rack up more trauma" adventure. aka arr and beyond) he learned to read her well-- as did she for him. Part of the reason why they get along so well is that they feel extremely comfortable around eachother. As fellow perceptive people, even with the opposing personalities, they picked up on another's habits growing up and developed their own weird way of communicating. Ambivert cat to Intorvert cat communication. also the fact that they were both curious book nerds who enjoyed listening to the other yap helped a lot too but ANYWAY. He USED to be able to read her well, but now coming back after 4 years, she's gotten a lot better at the act. Many ticks have changed, while many others have stayed the same, and for a while, it's like learning a new language that has the same base root as your first language. Familiar, yet different. Luckily, green catboy is a fast learner, and by the end of the expansion, they're p much back to where they were before. Y'know, other than. developments. (kissing your childhood best friend and pretending it didn't alter your brain chemistry a little bit. totally being normal about it)

also I HAVE MANY FEELS ABT. ARESIBA BEING A CRYBABY. ESPECIALLY WHEN SHES RHEMI AND BUILDING UP HER REPUTATION AS THE WOL W THIS STAGENAME

bc the rumors and etc never talk about how emotional she gets. How she is. in fact. a crybaby

but will still get the job done even if in tears. she's not weak because she cries. because she allows herself to feel these emotions and work thorigh them.

and Yahima has been saying this since day ONE, bc her sister has had to make a lot of hard decisions for them growing up. all while through tears half the time.

Basically "Yes my sister is emotional. Yes she is a crybaby. She's also the strongest and bravest person I know and I don't want to hear ANY slander on her name"

also it's very funny. bc she's v much the "cheerful/sweet/optimistic character who changes vibe on a dime to be scary/cold/etc.'

it's all fun and games until the Bard is looking at you from beyond her brim with that one eye covered look. it's all fun and games until you get a knife barely grazing you neck. bc she has scary pinpoint aim from learning how to hunt.

and it's always a shock, bc people NEVER EXPECT her to get so humorless and cold when she gets into these moods. They're rare, but dangerous

anyway. she's the "character who smiles the brightest is burdened with the most grief" type beat. purposefully, forcefully, actively Hopeful despite everything

also a theatrical dork who I adore. her theatrics and energy are in EVERYTHING she does as the wol. she cares abt putting on a good performance.

This does seem in line with how Dominion acts, and I would not be suprised if he has the ability to determin what kind of leader you would like. But at the same time he is the Kingmaker. He wants "strong" rulers there is a reason the most powerful leaders have been acknowledged by him. Gods are digfrent from mortals and Dominion seem to be an expert at pulling the right strings. His reflection might be part of his godly powers but, I think it is part of his personality aswell.

I also think that a major reason that Dominion acts so diffrently around Jason over the series is he is just really good at jusging people and giving them advice.. He might be thw first one to realisy exaktly what Jason migh become. And so he treats him acrodingly, he knows when to give what advice.

SPOILERS! In the later parts when Jason blows up, we see how useful his advice is to Jason. I think that part is really good at showcasing the role Dominion thrives in, and there are so meny ways he can choose to go about it.

Husband came bouncing down the stairs, and shouted "I just realized two things! The first is that I am INCREDIBLY dehydrated!" He then proceeded to slam back an entire 16 oz of water from the novelty monster mug he has used exclusively since he first bought it a decade ago, refill it, and repeat the process.

"The second thing, is that Dominion is a MIRROR! He reflects the kind of ruler you would be back at you. When he was talking to the excommunicated healer, he was vicious and cruel. Then, the second he shifted his focus to Gary, he started cracking jokes! He was encouraging, in a gruff kind of way. When he's talked to Jason over the years, he has changed his personality WILDLY, based on how much therapy Jason had gone through at the time and how self-aware he was."

He then told me I could share this idea with Tumblr, because he wants to know what everyone thinks about it.

Johann Uber

General Headcanons:

Was a right bastard in his early youth, like your typicall 90s movie bully who pushes kids into lockers, gives people vegies and flips the bird at his teachers his father -a military man- had to whip him into shape.

Uber's father was a memorable man with many wothwhile acomplishments but Uber remembers him by his scowl, cold and calculating, staring down at him as if he isn't his flesh and blood but something foul, he thinks he sees it reflected on Colonel's face sometimes but he won't confront that.

İt wasn't all bad though sometimes his father would wake up joyfull and take him hiking by the evening ,his mother on the porch her knuckles white around the door handle, Johann would never last long but his father would just laugh, the liness on his face disappering and let his son lay face up staring up at the trees like rivers and veins.

He was much closer with his mother who had a passion for litrature, and plays and everything even remotly close to them, they'd sit by the fireplace for hours filtering through aged paper and laughing, some of his mother's books lay hidden under his bed in the barracks.

He named himself Uber (super, above, powerfull) after the Alps he didn't want to carry his father's name with him and he dosen't know his mother's maiden name.

Has a hard time wearing 'civilian' shoes, read: anything that isn't boots or footie boots, as they give his feet rashes and one of his toes is bent at a slightly wrong angle so it hurts when shoes aren't tailored.

Has nightmares and vividly remembers all of them, he thrashes around in his sleep and often hits people he feels bad for it sometimes but you won't hear an apology from this guy not 'till fat pigs fly.

Colonel offered to get him medication for it but he refused as he can't swallow pills and the sight of them makes him sick.

Shines Maggy's horns when no one's watching.

Plays both defender and striker 'cause he's really flexible as long as t he y win.

Very envious man but hides it well only Thor and Ja Nein know and that's only because Ja Nein is good at reading people and Thor just spends enough time with him to know when he's acting sus, sometimes they'll meet eyes just before one of his tantrums, no words but volumes said.

Has an exteremly fancy handwriting, he learnt it from his mother at a later age though so it gets wobbly and illegible if he isn't carefull.

Loves owls had a owl plushie as a kid.

His fingers tick when he gets tired or mad the guys take gambles on how long it's going to take before he passes the fuck out of freaks the fuck out.

The İron Tank logo was first branded on his hand than the rest was filled in with regular tatoo ink.

Still calls his family and visits but there is this tensness in the air that none of them dare to adress.

Part of a very big and proud family, so big that many of them have completly diffrent names and features, he vaugley remembers a red-headed boy from an Aunt's wedding years and years ago, a distant cousin perhaps.

Wears Beau De Jour by Tom Ford and sprays a bunch on his chest since that's where people face when they talk to him

Messy Liner- A Keigo Takami/Hawks × reader drabble

Warnings: none! Just endless fluff and Hawks being a clingy baby. Poorly edited.

Prespective: second person!

Sypnosis: After noticing that he was too tired to do his eyeliner correctly, you take it upon yourself to help Keigo so he goes to work on time.

Author's note: wrote this and now its 3 AM where I am. I'm going to go catch some ZZZs now. I hope you enjoy <3

Raising your head from your fluffy pillow, your eyes darted over to the door of the bathroom in your room. It was slightly open, making it completely normal to hear the water running. You could hear violent splashing, the sound of intense brushing immediately followed by complete silence. A completely still moment passed. It was eerie, how much time Keigo was spending in the bathroom. He usually takes two to three minutes inside. He was a fast-paced man as he was a pro-hero, so the delay was almost concerning. You were about call out his name, but he lazily appeared from around the corner, head staring right at the ground, hair a wet mess, in only a pair of black briefs and a red shirt, with a white towel around his neck.

His feathers were falling like cherry-blossom petals on a breezy spring day, on the ground with every step he took, making his usually glorious, protective red wings look more timid, dull. You couldn't help but notice that his eyes were closed as he walked towards the bed. Never has he ever looked so exahusted before. When he woke up, he had a habit of speed walking around the house to get things done faster, that would usually wake you up from how heavy his footsteps were, but not today. Today you woke up because how shockingly serene it was.

He sat down on the bed, making the comfortable mattress jump a little. Head facing his bedside table, Hawks opened one of the drawers and took out a black-liner pen and a magnifying mirror. He gently put down the mirror on the counter, adjusting it so he could see his eyes. What was abundantly clear in his reflection, was his drousniess. His head swayed from side to side, unable to stay steady. After trying his best to keep his head from falling to the side, he neared the eyeliner to his faded birthmarks to add the cosmetic, but as he fixed the wing, his -very- shaky hand failed him. "Tsk," The frustrated sound he let slip made you sit up. He was really good at doing his eyeliner, to the point where you ask him to do yours whenever you were going to an important gala together. His hands were always steady, accurate, he always knew what he was doing when it came to using his hands. But the exhaustion and drainage from yesterday's patrol obviously took a toll on him. 'You never know when to take a break..' You told him late at night, when your hand were smoothing his blonde locks, but he was already fast asleep. You observed him as he wiped the smudged wing, and try to do it again, only to fail -and almost poke his eye out. He let out a bothered sigh.

"Keigo.." You tapped his arm, and he looked over at you. His playful, golden, reinstone eyes were only halfway open, his lids heavy, and that cocky gleam in them were no where to be seen. "Give the pen to me," The demand was serious, but your tone was gentle, as not to startle him. You extended your hand, and he looked down at it, seemingly trying to connect the dots like you had just told him a hard riddle. He slowly gave you the eyeliner, then looked back up at you. "Put your head here and look up at me," Adjusting your position so both of you are comfortable and patting your lap, he acted just a bit faster this time, positioning his head upwards as you asked him to. You pushed the wet strands of blonde hair that stuck on his forehead, carefully began to trace the birthmarks with the pen.

The world was queit. Tranquil. The only thing you could hear were the beeping cars and sounds of the city. You didn't remember the last time Keigo was this calm and still. A cocky, intelligent, fast attitude. That's what originally attracted you to him in the first place. He always did everything so damn fast, and it was thrilling. Dating him has never felt boring. But even though you loved how he brought excitment into your life with how quick- paced he was, these rare moments where both of you were undisturbed, realxed in the comfort of your apartment...these were the moments you cherished deeply, that you held so closely to your heart.

You stopped for a minute, to take in the sight infront of you. Keigo looked so..indescribably beautiful, ethereal. His slightly sun-kissed skin gleamed under the single light ray entering the room through the open space between the curtains. His sharp eyes were shut close, letting you do your work without any bother. Crimson wings were spread on the bed, and his strong, lean arms wrapped around your figure. You put your hand in his hair, and he leaned into the touch, his cheeks going a dusty shade of pink. You smiled, and forced yourself to keep working on his eyeliner, even though you wanted this to last a lifetime.

After making sure the wings were symmetrical, you put the eyeliner on your counter, and turned to him, expecting him to finally wake up and throw a cheeky remark at you. Start flirting uncontrollably with you like he always did. Start kissing all over your face and body. But he didn't. Infact, he didn't move an inch off your lap. That whistled deep breathing of his and the way his wings rose and fell made you realise that he had fallen asleep again. You put one of your hands under his chin, and began scratching, in hopes that Keigo's ticklish nature would kick in and wake him up. But to your surprise, he groaned something uncoherable in delight, and angeled his head to get more of your touch.

"Keigo, baby, you need to wake up." You whispered, knowing that his busy work couldn't be delayed. Knowing that he wouldn't be happy if he was late. But for the first time, Keigo refused. "M..don't wanna.." He grumbled, like a child who was being forced to do something they didn't want to be doing. His grip tightened around your waist, and he buried his head in your shirt. An alarm bell rung in your head. You laid down to check if Keigo ruined his eyeliner, that you were barely able to fix and make it look like he did it. Thinking you laid back was an invitation to let him sleep, Keigo pulled your body down and laid his head on your chest. "M..warm.."

You stiffled your giggles, struggling to sit up. "Keigo, you need to go, you know that.."He didn't answer. You were not sure if he had truly fell asleep again or if he was ignoring you. "I'll be right here when you return, waiting for you.." Your fingers knit through his bangs. "But now you need to get up, other people are waiting for you.."

"But I don't want to.." Keigo replied, his eyes meeting with yours. The look in his eyes. It was innocent, desperate, needy for this moment to keep going. Needy for your touch and affection. "I want to..be here..always..with you.." That simple wish of his in his raspy, sleepy voice made your heart skip a beat. You didn't sense any sleep talk, only honesty.

You didn't know what to say. Both of you wanted to stay like this. In each other's arms, basking in each other's warmth as nothing but love filled the air around you. This was Keigo's idea of heaven.

"Mm..babybird.." He breathed in deeply, then let it all out, like he had been holding so much in for too long. "Can..we pretend..that everything is fine for just a few hours..?" The innocence in his request made you lay down. You were surprised that he asked you this, his sense of duty was always something that pushed him to get out of bed, but now it was diffrent. He didn't tell you what happened the day before, but all you knew that he was drained, drained enough not to eat and instead, bring you to bed with him so you could hold him. Drained enough to hold you this tightly, and wish for things that could only be achieved if you lived in another world.

You put your head down on the pillow, eyes closed, hand in Keigo's hair and the other on his bicep, your thumb doing circular movements on the firm muscle.

And as sleep began to cover your senses, you mumbled a few words, a few words that were enough to make Keigo smile in his slumber.

"Yeah...yeah, I guess we can.."

My main Mc's entire internal insecurity is who he is, who he used to be, and what that actually means compared to how he acts nowadays.

It doesn't help he can always see the fool in his reflections, usually in mirrors hanging around the edges peeking into the mirror, above his head floating like a small bird or dragon, or sometimes right behind him like a large guard dog but this Mc knowing their not actually there. But sometimes in a flash of a flask on the shelf or a quick reflection of a tail on the waters edge. However, because it's never truly there, this means none of the Li can see this except Nadia and Asra if the fool gets too intense and they can sense it through this Mc or if it purposely shows itself to them.

Yet even then, they can't see the fools true form (bunch of diffrent animals) just a kind of smudge of different sizes, maybe miscellaneous shapes because the fool isn't truly there its just a part of this Mc's subconscious and technically their being. Which brings up the whole issue of who he is and what parts of him are actually him and which parts are from the fool or even Asra, knowing their both keeping him alive through well skin, blood, and heart. Can he truly trust his heart to know what parts are himself if his heart isn't his to begin with?

Edit: I was actually just listening to rule #18 the lion, which imo describes the fools point of view in what I mentioned above pretty nicely but not perfectly.

I'd like to think that MC would maybe have an identity crisis.. they're questioning who they are and what are they like before

Even looking at themselves through a mirror or by the streams of the river, their reflection looks so familiar yet so not. Having broken a mirror once by just looking at their reflection for too long.

What do you guys think?

2020

Week 3 Reflections

During the craziness that was 2020 I was at home in Akron. Then when the 'toilet paper' frenzy happened I remember having to go to either two or three diffrent stores to just get one pack. This in itself was a somewhat losing battle because I live in a house with 5 other people with a 4 to 1 female to male ratio. So toliet paper goes quickly in our house, and this is not to say that we went crazy and try to hoard it like some did but just trying to get 2 packs of 6 rolls was a struggle. Not only that but when we would order it because we wanted to avoid being out the shipment could take up to a month to arrive with 1 pack of 12 rolls (and this isn't even talking the price gouging).

When I saw everything on the news and the BLM protests I was overwhelmed. Escpecially as an African American me and my siblings have grown up having talks with our parents about what to do and how to act when we're approached by the police. As well as the fact that people might judge us just because of the color of our skin. Then with the protests, although I was unable to participate due to Covid and me being high risk I grew overwhelmingly worried about my friends who I knew were participating and the ones who weren't I even dug through my contacts to check on a old highschool friend who I hadnt talked to in years to make sure that he was ok. Because even though it was a peaceful protest it was met with police brutatily. Due to all of this happening I now can't help but notice the connection from, I Am Not Your Negro by James Baldwin and the protests in 2020. They both have one common factor and that was people were just having peacefule protests for their right to life and as it was during the time of Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks these peaceful protests ended with violence and people going to jail for just kneeling peacefully.

I feel as though activism/social change has always been necessary but it is just in recent that I feel as though some people have become more bold about their prejudices. As well as the fact that there is no hiding the what is happening to people due to discrimination becuase it's now on social media and t.v. people can't sweep it under the rug anymore. Now in the past the social change that I would try to help with was working with the homeless. Such as making things to help them stay warm and getting other people involved to help. I did this because I understood that anyone could be in their position it could be one check away for anyone. I also knew that it is hard to get back up on you feet because of the system . For example, to get a job you need to have a home address but if you recently lost your home half of the time a job won't hire you because their situation is unstable. And due to all that is happening now I want to be able to help again and learn more.

personally i love a lot of the wembly designs because theyre so diffrent, and i find them especially intresting because they act as such a contrast to other productions, particularly the current bochum costumes that lost a lot of the colour they had pre-rewrites (no hate to bochum i love them).

in particular, i love that wembly basically goes straight ahead and compleately juaxtaposes electra and the components costumes. they go from standing out for being more flamboyant and excessive compared to the other costumes, to being the opposite, being compleatly drawn back and clean cut compared to the bright colours of the other trains in the show.

i find this so intresting because it somewhat represents the two ideas of 'the future' during the time periods there being presented in, the 80s were still running on the high of scifi cinema and the costuming seemingly reflected the drasticness of those films. however in the current day weve seen the increase in minamalism in modern technology and every new 'electric device of the ffuture' is accordingly sleek and clean cut, much like the wembly 2024 production.

whats also intresting is wembly betrays its female characters starkly differently compared to for instance the original, following bochums lead in pulling away from the stereotypes that were genrally instilled in the past, and the cosyuming choices really emphasis this feel.

but on another hand i can totally understand why people were so overwhelmed by the stark differences of wemblys production and i think this in accordance to the fact that they didn't really advertise that the show was more of a non-replica, rather than a recreation.

generallly though i like all of starlights costuming over the years, except for dustins on ice costume and the vegas. anyway, this was gonna be a paragraph and it turned out to be an entire essay i geeked a little too hard i fear.

What are your guys honest opinions about the Wembley costumes, both on their own and compared to other productions. I have mixed feelings about them tbh. All the shapes and colors are fun to look at and draw but I tend to favor the more classic ones. Feel free to rant abt this to me, I'm curious to know what y'all think.

Research & Experiment

Mood board I made

Earlier in the day my teemmates created a first attempt mood board however after being adviced to take a diffrent approach i took it upon myslef to create a second mood board in the way our tutors advised us too with the little amount of materials i could find.

It was difficult to get the mood board to be exactly how i wanted as i had a very limited supply of materials to choose from due to the fact we had last dibs on the materials after disposing of the groups original attempt. Despite this im very proud of my mood board and think it reflects the aims and aesthetic of out character and her story well.

Mood board Version 1 -

(Above) My version of our moodboard and the final choice

Mood board Version 2, Revisited-

(Above) Edited second version moodboard

Unfortunately i took this photo after someone had medaled with the original composition i had layed out, originally i presented it with the pieces of material coming off the wall overlaying the moodboard making the composition come off the paper but someone moved it. Despite this i still think you can imagine and the photo gives off pretty much the aesthetic i meant it to.

I had wanted to print out a photo of Ethel in the size A4 or A3 however at this time i only have availability to the size you see above. Despite this again i think you can see what kind of idea i was going for, keeping continuity with the storyline ‘the girl without a face’, acting as a metaphorical face her life and aesthetics moodboard.

Mood board Version 3, Silhouette -

Here i had wanted to print of an A4 or A3 photo of Ethel, cut around her face and body, similarly to the example above, and have the window in her lack of face as an insight into her life and life’s aesthetic. I thought it should fit very well into our storyline ‘the girl without a face’ as she would both physically not have a face and it would secondly show a metaphorical version of her ‘face’ through her life and aesthetics.
