I am so ravingly abnormal about John unordinary

What a guy. Truly. The recent eps where he’s working w Remi Isen Blyke and Arlo warm my heart beyond imagination

Guhh watching Blyke + John interact just warms my heart so much. Like ofc ofc I wish John hadn’t been forcibly moved to the dorms but if he’d been moved in w Blyke earlier they could’ve been friends first

Like imagine what would’ve happened if he managed to befriend Blyke before Arlo approached him? Imagine if he went on a Royal collecting spree, starting w Sera and then working his way up Blyke to Remi to Arlo? Imagine. Arlo wouldn’t have even bothered getting anyone suspended. Isen would still be able to find info but they’d be familiar at LEAST it wouldn’t be some rando guy.

A King card for Arlo!! I made him specifically the King of Diamonds because that fits his defense thing pretty well

[froggos-are-superior]

Mini rant time.

One of the most popular discussions in the Unordinary fandom is definitely the struggle between John Doe and the Royals at Wellston. I know John gets a lot of shit for his part in it, but I really don't blame him for most of it. His behavior at his school in New Bostin was atrocious of course, but when he moved to Wellston, he changed and made himself smaller to try and atone for what he did in an effort to not hurt anyone that severely again. Arlo started their rivalry and John simply finished it. To put it simply, Arlo fucked around and found out. As for the other Royals, they're not innocent in it either. Their job as Royals is to maintain the hierarchy, sure, but it should also be to make sure that the stronger students aren't abusing their powers, and they failed miserably in that. John went too far, yes, but he was blamed for everything that happened when in reality, the abuse he faced at Wellston was the result of the Royals' spectacular failure of managing the system they were so hellbent on maintaining. Also fuck you Vaughn for leaving the kids to "work it out on their own". In conclusion, John and the Royals both sucked, but Asslo takes the cake for highest level of suckery.

Arlo and Responsibility

‼️Minor spoiler warning for… I think just S1‼️

I’ve been thinking about Arlo a lot lately, and I think I finally figured him out. All of the characters in UnOrdinary have major, underlying themes to their characters: for John, power and lack thereof, for Blyke, protection, and for Seraphina, its freedom. But Arlo is unique in that his most prominent theme, responsibility, is so central that every aspect of him leads back to it. Allow me to elaborate.

According to Arlo, high tiers have a responsibility to lead, and set an example, to work hard and keep order. This is the fundamental philosophy that everything is built upon. When John confronted Arlo, shouting about how all John wanted was to live a peaceful life away from the rankings, Arlo says “Who doesn’t want to live a peaceful life?”. Arlo doesn’t believe he has a choice in anything— that he, along with all high tiers, have been conscripted into a particular role that none of them really want, but they all have the duty to fulfill.

Arlo is an extremely hard worker and he takes his responsibilities very seriously. This is why he resents Seraphina and John— they don’t. To him, Sera and John both ran away from their duties, leaving all of the burden on him. The reason he goes after John in the first place is because he “corrupted” Seraphina. Remember, when Rei graduated, the school was a whole dumpster fire and Arlo cleaned it up all by himself, with no support from the other royals. Then later when Arlo is working in tandem with Sera to lead, the school is “the most peaceful it’s ever been”. Then Sera leaves it all behind. He feels like he’s been left out to dry, and unfairly forced to do everything by himself.

This is reflected also in how he treats Isen at the beginning of season 2: he puts Isen as the press leader, and Isen pretty quickly gets crushed under that weight and tells Arlo he can’t do it. Arlo has none of it, and tells Isen to basically suck it up and fix the problem. He admits that he does set high expectations for others, but “never without a reason”. He smacks the relevant paper down on the table and says “This is for the press leader to handle.” Arlo is delegating firmly because he believes Isen is capable and needs that push, but also because he is sick of working overtime while others sit back.

Even in his relationship with Remi, it ties back to this theme. He protects and looks after Remi because he cares about her, obviously, but a major facet of their relationship is that he feels responsible for her. Rei told him to look after her when she was about to enter Wellston. She’s also younger, smaller, and weaker than Arlo is. Not to mention that she’s reckless and naïve, especially by Arlo’s standards. This ties into my earlier point about Arlo’s kingly duties— he does have other royals helping him run things, so why does he continually lament that he’s doing this on his own? I think it’s because he sees Remi more as someone to look after than as someone he can rely on. Sera however, he did see as a reliable partner and an equal.

My words: conscious, building, hook, excuse

Peter Hart

conscious

“Aye, laddie. What about our cabin boy?” He glanced down at Benjamin with a gentle sneer. “Prince is about as unconscious as a drunk in a tavern’s pissoir.”

building

The gang hooked carabiners to their belt loops, belaying the other ends to ropes that scaled down the building. Peter had a whole entrance and getaway planned, as was befitting the mastermind behind the Royal Ransom heist. As they secured their wenches, Peter sighed low in disappointment. “Too bad we didn’t have time to loot the castle, though….”

hook

Benjamin’s breathing sat heavily on his chest as he stared up hard at the blonde. Despite being afraid for his own life, this furious redhead was all fired up. Peter returned the key ring to its wall hook before two-finger saluting the catatonic royal. “Just stick tight, alright? I won’t be long.”

excuse

Benji nodded in acknowledgement as he excused himself, allowing Peter a few more moments of quiet before rejoining the mates. Though the prince’s attempt to console him was unordinary and unwarranted, it was a welcome surprise nonetheless. The captain placed his fingers on his lips, pondering deeply, before resolving his sadness in a gentle nod of self-affirmation.

Hey! I'm SOOO behind on unOrdinary, but I came across your post about just sending asks. The series is SO well done, and the characters all tug on my heart in different ways 💖💖💖

it literally is so well done 🔥🔥🔥 I've been reading it since 2017 and aside from a few arcs (*cough*joker*cough*), it's been a massively steady and entertaining thing to look forward to every week. I really have to appreciate uruchan's storytelling abilities! Even from the earliest chapters, you could see her setting down the bread crumbs about Ember, the officials, Vaughn and Keene, etc. Now that we're finally delving into the world outside Wellston as the students fight it, her writing shines even more!

I love the new characters she's introduced like Kuyo and Kassandra (my fave adults) and it makes me so happy to see the Wellston royals actually getting along 😭 cuz I don't know about y'all, but if John smashed my face into the concrete and broke my arm and generally effed me up, I would NOT be forgiving him. You could argue some of them deserved it, but regardless, having them all unified as this passionate team who want change while still having their individual goals has been exciting to watch come together. Love this series so much :')

Nobody pays much attention to John—just a normal teenager at a high school where the social elite happen to possess unthinkable powers and abilities. John prefers it that way. The more he stays under the radar, and stays close to the Royal’s most powerful Ace, Seraphina, the safer he is in the halls of Wellston High. But John has a secret past that threatens to bring down the school’s whole…

no.1 pinched the bridge of his nose “why did you think confronting a witch would be a good idea?”

Sitting on his desk was a small frog in royal guard armour.

Daventry was home to many fantastical creatures. Trolls, goblins, unicorns who are absolutely not just goats with a poor man's version of a horn to trick said trolls… as well as witches and wizards.

Witches and wizards who had a fun time throwing curses and spells like it was water on a random Tuesday at the random civilian that dared to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.

So it really did not come as a surprise to the captain of the guards when Graham sheepishly walked into his office with a frog in his hands.

"Pockets," Number One glared at his desk, "contrary to what the Royal Guards have said, me being a father is figurative, not literal."

"Noted."

"So why, pray tell, are you coming to my office, drenched in mud, holding a frog as a four year old would to their fathers?"

"Because um… well… it's not an ordinary frog." Graham winced.

"Pockets–"

"Look–"

"Do NOT put the filthy blasted frog on my–!" his words were cut short when he saw, placed delicately on his desk the unordinary frog.

An unordinary frog with the undoubtedly Royal Guard armor and eerily smelling of both earth and syrup.

"Explain."

"Huh?"

"Explain." Number One nearly hissed through gritted teeth as the frog lightly croaked. Even the blasted croak sounded like Number Two. "Why is my second in command a bloody frog? What happened to just scouting the layout of the land for anything threatening?"

Graham flinched but quickly regained his footing. "I mean, technically, this is the end result of the scouting. There's a witch and she casted something called Frog which… well… this is the end result."

"How… how did you find the witch?" Number One’s stare was piercing through Graham.

"Well, because Number Two thought it was an old lady that needed help. And uh…" Graham scratched his cheek. "He may have used a pun?"

Number One stared for an uncomfortably long time as the frog sat patiently on the parchment that was in regards to, ironically, swamp maintenance. He inhaled deeply before closing his eyes as he pinched the bridge of his nose. “Why did you think confronting a witch would be a good idea?”

Number Two let out a loud croak as an answer.

"You think the Hobblepotts have something to help understand animals?" Graham asked, biting back a bit of a laugh.

"They bloody better have." Number One grumbled, scooping up the Second In Frog and stepping out of his office. "With me, Pockets."

"Yes, sir!"

Number Two, once more, let out a croak to which Number One groaned.

Wellston top 8 students as cards! And why I care too much about this

Seraphina: Queen of Clovers -> Ace of Spades

John: Joker

Arlo: King of Diamonds

Remi: Jack of Diamonds -> Queen of Hearts

Cecile: Jack of Spades

Blyke: Ten of Hearts -> Jack of Hearts -> King of Clovers

Isen: Seven of Clovers -> Jack of Clovers

Terrence: Eight of Diamonds

I used Clovers as the suit name instead of the traditional Clubs because clovers are associated with luck (even though these aren’t the four leaf ones), and the Class of Clovers (John/Sera/Blyke/Isen’s year, possibly also Terrence’s) was ridiculously and disproportionately overpowered.

First I want to address Cecile actually she’s weirdly the linchpin in all this. I made her the Jack because I do think she was the Jack that Remi dethroned (while Sera was still Queen), and I ended up choosing Spades for her as it’s the war-like suit that fits the order of Unordinary’s world, as well as her lack of hesitance to use her power to get the job done.

I ended up taking a lot of inspiration from the game of New Texis Hold ‘Em Sera plays with John and William early on. In it, the community cards are the Ten of Hearts, King of Diamonds, and Jack of Clovers. I wanted to make these match up with the Royals at the time.

Given that, it seemed obvious that Arlo would be the King of Diamonds; the untouchable king. Remi would fit neatly as the Jack of Clovers, which kind of fits the relative backseat she seems to have initially taken as the Queen early on. Nobody respects her authority, and the power transfer does seem to be recent. That was kind of a justification I used to say she’s not in her final form yet.

I gave Blyke then the Ten of Hearts, as he’s the third Royal but honestly really shouldn’t be anywhere near the Royals, even if he’s got the spirit of it.

The cards in Sera’s hand are the Queen and Ace of Spades. Seeing as she rose from the role of Queen to the Ace, and the Ace is the most powerful card in the game, I assigned her the Ace of Spades pretty much automatically. Plus she has Ace of Spades imagery, which I pointed out before. But I’d like to reserve the Queen of Spades, and instead make Sera start as the Queen of Clovers. Again, that’s her set in with the rest of the Class of Clovers. When Sera ascends to Ace of Spades, Remi becomes the Queen… and I think it’s not hard to agree that Remi is the Queen of Hearts

With most of Wellston’s Top Five covered, I just wanna check in on John; not much to say here as he’s the Joker, plain and simple. This also ties into that card game hehe

I’d rather do Terrence before Isen, so here goes: he pretty much just goes along with the hierarchy and isn’t driven by his own agenda, so he could be one of the counting cards. I picked Eight since that was the rank he died at. He doesn’t fall under any of the other suits easily, so I just picked Diamonds to isolate him.

I imagine Isen starting at Seven of Clovers, since he entered in that class and ended at that rank. He gets to ascend to Jack, just as he did in story, and he maintains his Clover class.

Meanwhile, Blyke is promoted to Jack of Hearts, since he spends a lot of his time as Jack basically being Remi’s lieutenant. He doesn’t actually get serious about the role until after X-Rei visits Brannish, and by that point his dethronement from Jack is already imminent. So directly from Jack of Hearts, he gets to rise to King of Clovers. He really was a King of the people, and we see that in how people respond to his ascension to the role. So he gets to take the King role in the Clovers suite, finally leaving Hearts as he’s found his own motivation beyond Remi’s.

Hey Sera!

[ladyelainehilfur]

Okay you made a post about wanting webtoon asks a little while ago, if you’re still interested—UnOrdinary. What do you think of the current plot (wherever you’re at in the comic), who’s your favorite and least favorite character, and what’s your most controversial opinion? :D if you please anyway, feel free to delete this if it’s a bother!

I’ll start—for me, I like the current plot but miss some of the conflict from the joker arc + aftermath, it seems like the characters just have to mostly get along now for the larger plot. Super pumped about all the Jane stuff though. I’m basic so my faves are Sera and John and my least favorite are Arlo and Blyke. My controversial opinion is that Blyke pretty much sucks—he’s just sorta privileged and ignorant, which makes him a great part of the cast but not someone I root for very easily lmao.

Wow, I could not disagree more! The joker arc almost made me drop the webtoon because I found John's rampages unbearably repetitive and cruel. What Arlo and the others put him through was horrible, but he was kind of worse 😬 I'm sure some people found it cathartic and thought the students had it coming, but my favorability towards John hit an all time low. It's back up now but only thanks to Sera's intervention.

In contrast, I found whole new respects for Remi, Isen, and especially Blyke. Blyke literally became my favorite character 😂 he's John's foil in almost every way: they're the same body type and design, but they have different color schemes and powers. They're both kings, but have different viewpoints about what that responsibility entails. John is carefree and Blyke is more careful.

Blyke wasn't super likeable before but he was always one of the nicer Royals. Remi is the kindest Royal, but she was more privileged and ignorant than Blyke ever was. Once Blyke learned about the injustices in the system both at school and outside of it, he stepped up in a major way. He was among the first to apologize to John and he backed up Remi in her vigilante work. It feels like he was meant to be a superhero all along and I find him very easy to root for.

If I have a least favorite character, it's probably...Arlo? I don't like him. He's uppity and for WHAT? bro instigated too much. Glad he apologized but he still acts like he's in charge of everyone, especially Isen and Remi. My controversial opinion is that I don't like it when people are mean to Isen. Isen was more of an asshole in the beginning, but I'm partial to bullies turned heroic himbos, so Arlo isn't on my good list.

As far as the plot, I'm invested! It's a lot but I think it's been built up adequately and the fight scenes are as hype as ever. I'm having trouble differentiating between Ember and Spectre's roles in the story, but the stakes feel very real and I hope Jane comes out of this whole thing alive.
