Where’s that post I made about Mike being the companion that broke under the horrors bc I’m still right. When I think abt the THINGS some companions have had to endure and have still seemingly been fine, and then I think of mike losing himself and his values to a festering psychological wound that left him open to radicalisation, it’s like he is the evidence that actually everything isn’t fine.
Which is why it’s so important that he should be next seen in meditation, in the seeking of peace, in quietness and healing because not only is he a character that needs it he’s also a character that knows he needs it and seeks it out for himself, because he doesn’t recognise who he is anymore and he wants, not to redeem himself in the eyes of others (he won’t even go near UNIT, not even when he needs their help, he goes through Sarah Jane instead!), but to become a better person, to stop being a threat, and to heal for his own soul’s sake.
And so he goes from someone who was willing to see the entirety of human history erased, to someone who will risk his life for one person and the fact that that ultimately saves his life always imo comes across as a bit easy if you watch planet of the spiders without this context in mind. But when you do think about where Mike has been, psychologically, from the green death through to planet of the spiders, it doesn’t seem easy at all but actually a significant if understated character moment.
#mike yates#waxing lyrical about my blorbos in the middle of the night#but for real mikes healing arc is SO much to me#I think one of the crucial things about the green death is firstly that the doctor asks him to go back#like I genuinely think Mike would not have been as traumatised by his experiences as he was if he hadn’t IMMEDIATELY been forced back into#the traumatic situation#and the second thing is that Jo leaves at the end#mike is straight up NOT having a good time#like he goes through an extremely traumatic event and then has to immediately reexpose himself to it without any chance to process what happ#ened to him#and then he loses one of his best friends almost immediately afterwards#ESPECIALLY since jo would be the person MOST likely to understand what he is going through#and they both know that#the first day they met Jo was manipulated into attacking her friends by a power beyond her own will#which is exactly what has just happened to Mike#and Mike witnessed All of that so he knows. he KNOWS that jo would understand#but he can’t talk to her about it because she’s getting married and leaving

MXTX Side Characters Tournament
[Image ID - two images. The first is a cropped image of Shang Qinghua from the cover of the English Scum Villain novel. He has brown hair tied up in a loose bun. He is wearing a light blue-gray ribbon in his hair the same color as his robes as he glances over his shoulder at the viewer.
The second image is a drawn image of Jiang Cheng from MDZS looking at the viewer with apparent disgust or contempt. He has long dark hair tied up by a silver hairpiece with bangs framing his face. His eyes are a pale blue. /End ID]
Shang Qinghua / Airplane from SVSSS
Submission: He's a sidekick and he's so sidelined that despite creating the universe he's treated as an afterthought - doubly a side character! But also? So relateable. He would absolutely have been on tumblr in his first life, he gets so excited about his blorbo who treats him terribly (until they finally get a happy ending in the extras - also! he has to wait for the extras to get his happy ending! very side-character of him). He holds the fascinating position of being mostly irrelevant to the story and yet without him the themes would totally fail. He deserves a win on something for once, okay?
Jiang Cheng from MDZS
Submission 1: Extremely traumatized yet also somehow the most normal and functional by the end. Huge bitch but I (and at least one of the other characters) think he deserves to be even worse after everything he's been through
Submission 2: Simultaneously badass and the most cringefail man. Extremely funny and stylish but still manages to be very uncool. Cries a lot. Also he's lost a lot of tumblr polls—let's give him another shot! We definitely love him more than his dad did!
Submission 3: He's got mommy issues AND daddy issues. He loves his sister and his shige so much. He's traumatised and incredibly competent. He rebuilt his whole sect! He's an asshole (affectionate). He's purple! He's got the coolest weapon ever conceived. I'm so worried about his blood pressure basically all the time.

Happy Blorbo Blursday, as well as happy spooky month! What would the cast of Retroseer do if they found themselves in a classic horror movie scenario?
Thank you @bardic-tales! I loooove horror movies so I love this question. Put a LOT of thought into this one haha.
Here's the rundown of the roles each of my non-antagonist cast members might take. Please note, many of these events are not necessarily accurate to what happens in my actual story. But some of them are. And no I will not elaborate on which:
Meet the Cast (with face claims)
Jamie Sykes: The traumatised one who witnessed her family member's murder at the hands of the killer years ago. Collects all the newspaper clippings of cases she thinks are linked. Survives the killer for a second time in a tense finale; she's the one to bring them down thanks to her resilience and street smarts (and the writers of the movie wanting some poetic justice.)
Lane Hackett: The punching bag. Fills the comedic relief role at the start but gets beat down over and over as the plot progresses until he's a shell of his former self. He'll witness the deaths of his friends, get caught in excruciating traps, probably having to saw his own limb off, and he's eventually tortured and murdered by the killer.
Noah Mendoza: The ex-cop who was the only one who believed Jamie when she said she thought the killer was still out there. Quit the force and started investigating solo. He's gathered a lot of useful information, but despite his training the plot won't let him be the one to catch the killer. He instead passes on the intel to the rest of the group, who are inexperienced and yet somehow do more with it than he ever did.
Maria Elena Mendoza: The sweet character who's 'killed' at the start of the movie to show the killer's ruthless nature. She returns in act 3 with a bunch of scars after a miraculous recovery, now a stone cold boss ass bitch ready for payback. Struggles to tell the difference between friend and foe when all she can see is her revenge.
Selena Carter: The film nerd who breaks the fourth wall constantly. She knows the anatomy of a horror movie and uses it to predict what the killer will do next. Logically she should survive the events of the movie, but does something wildly out of character in the final moments that becomes her undoing.
Roy Hackett: The complete douchebag who the audience thinks (or hopes) will be the first to die, but then he turns out to be extremely useful and badass in a survival scenario. Probably sacrifices himself for the group at the end of his redemption arc, going out in a blaze of glory.
Zachary Holt: The idiot kid who gets manipulated into unknowingly helping the killer carry out their evil plans. He's the one the audience will argue about the most ('He's just a kid!' vs. 'That's no excuse; he's dumb and deserves to die'). When he does die, half the audience will cry, the other half will cheer.

5 Times Gray Nearly Kissed Cooper and 1 Time Jay Witnessed It Finally Happen | Chains Series Spin-Off
SERIES MASTERPOST | RIBBONS SPIN-OFF
A/N: This is for my wonderful, amazing friend on their birthday! In case you don't know, these characters are part of my Chains Series as well as being my friend's special blorbos <3
Warnings: trauma, PTSD, reference to torture.
1. The first time Gray nearly kisses Cooper, he doesn't know who they are.
It's in the moments of being rebooted. After the trauma of waking up to find his entire life stolen, corrupted, replaced. Reality rushes back so fast he feels like he's dying again. He didn't expect to wake up; he thought the last thing he'd ever see was Ada's face as the truth rushed into it like her human blood.
"...you're okay. It's gonna be okay,"
That voice.
It's the hand of wakefulness tugging him out of his own nightmares. The one thing that kept him tethered to reality when he was in stasis. He rushes towards it like a drowning man, and then his optic programmes kick-in and he's so relieved, hit so hard with the force of simply being alive that it seems natural to reach up and make their lips meet.
That's when he finds that his other programmes haven't loaded yet. He's paralysed, looking up at the panels of a rotting wooden ceiling. He can't speak, but he thinks his eyes convey emotions he could never put into words when he finally sees the face of the mechanic smiling down at him.
2. It happens again the first time he sees snow.
After being guided outside and recounting the stories Ada used to tell him, both he and Cooper had stayed there for an unknown amount of time…staring.
It was so quiet. And not the bad kind. Not the kind that crept in and infested like the endless, isolating days he'd spent in stasis. It was peace, it was beautiful.
The sudden noise beside him is the first time he's been reminded he's not alone out here for a while, and he turns his head to see Cooper shiver,hands rubbing the raised hair on their arm. Sometimes - in the adrenaline rush of their lives on the run - Gray can forget that they're human. Whenever he's reminded, there's some kind of emotion that gets stuck in his throat that he has to force back down.
He should encourage them back inside. Avoid hypothermia. And yet there's a few more seconds when he's just looking at them. Their prosthetic arm holds onto their body and he's once again mermerised how intricate and well-designed it is. They look off into the distance with those brown eyes so deep he could get lost in them.
And for a moment he thinks about walking over, holding their face in his hands and kissing them.
"We should get you inside, Coop,"
3. Trauma seems to be a good catalyst for these things to happen.
All Gray can hear is the siren continuing to echo through the corridors of the Alliance base. His optic programme is working, and yet he can't seem to actually comprehend anything that's happening around him.
His mind is full of that thing. The thing that has his head. The thing that almost killed him before it was called away to become the subject of someone else's nightmares.
Even when Jay found him, he couldn't tell the fellow android what had happened. It was as if he was back in stasis mode, only all of his sensory programmes were still working fine. He felt trapped, traumatised, alone.
There's a pressure on his shoulder and suddenly he's knocked out of the paralysis. He flinches, systems blaring some warning message as he interprets it as a threat until he really looks, and sees Cooper leaning their head on his shoulder.
There's tear stains on their cheeks and their eyes have a glassed over, far-reaching expression. Immediately, his body relaxes and his mind becomes fixated on making sure they're okay, rather than dealing with whatever damage that psychopath had done to it.
Seeing them like this, he wants to comfort them in any way he can. They hold each other - for minutes or hours he has no idea. Eventually, they sniffle and he kisses the top of their head. He wants to do more; he wants to press his lips to theirs in an attempt to take away…to swallow all the pain.
It's not the moment. So instead he holds them close enough to convince them both that nothing else can touch them.
4. Jay daring him is just a occupational hazard at this point.
It happens at least a few times today. They'll be traversing the abandoned landscape of a small town, or crossing a river or getting supplies from an ex-military base and Jay will come up to him with some ridiculous idea.
It's oddly comforting in some ways; a nice reminder that He didn't erase all of Jay's original personality programming. An act of rebellion.
So, he's never surprised when he comes at him with that dorky grin and an idea to jump off a bridge or steal a 7 foot tall replica of the Eiffel Tower.
And yet.
"I dare you to kiss Coop,"
Gray knows it's literally impossible for him to choke, but right now it sounds like it with the noise he makes when Jay whispers into his ear.
They're about four steps behind Cooper, on an abandoned railroad track in the middle of nowhere. As per usual, the mechanic is leading the way, following signals they've got on one of their ingenious inventions that tracks SOS programmes from androids who've defected from the House.
"What? Shut the hell up, man!" Gray hisses aggressively back, eyes trained on their human's backpack in terror of them accidentally hearing their discussion.
"Come on, tough guy. I see how you look at them," Jay teases, an arm slung around Gray's shoulder as the Google Android refuses to meet his gaze.
"I don't…I don't know what you're on about, Jay. And anyway, you two are a thing, aren't you?" He tries not to let the hope he feels bleed into his tone of voice as he asks the question.
Jay laughs, and Gray starts to feel annoyed, like he's being made fun of. Jay leans in closer and this time his voice is more serious, more sincere.
"You really think that heart isn't big enough for the both of us?"
Gray is left standing still as Jay walks ahead of him, joining Cooper
"Hurry up, slow coach!" Jay shouts back, and Gray curses him under his breath.
5. Around the campfire, he really thinks he's going to do it.
They've made it to some make-shift camp set up by a handful of androids; some defectors, others who ran away from abusive owners well before the Blue Screen Event.
The last few days had been…nice. Really nice. In fact, the Alliance and rebellion and Alpha and everything else had slipped from his mind a few times whilst they'd been here, and that was a miracle in itself. It was almost like a taste of what could be; a possible future free from threat and fear.
It's in this warming glow that Gray finds himself trying to pluck up the courage to kiss them. He's been casually staring for at least the last ten minutes, the flames of the fire honeying their brown eyes in the darkness. He fidgets with his hands and occasionally sees a knowing smirk from Jay in the corner of his eye that he chooses to ignore.
He wants to do it. He needs to do it. And yet plucking up the courage to do so seems to be harder than when he had to resist the ongoing mental torture of having the world's most dangerous android in his head.
"Hey! We should go see if Hunter is alright," Cooper suggests, and it takes a while for Gray to process what they've actually said.
"Oh…yeah sure," He answers, watching as the mechanic is already standing up and catching Jay facepalm.
+1. It's been months since they left Markus' Alliance base.
Months since they set off, travelling North, following the tracks left behind from the House moving base after the incident of one of their Beta's being corrupted.
They're still unsure as to what exactly happened, but it was enough to force Alpha to move. And that meant it was serious. Very serious.
Something had happened between then. Something that meant Cooper no longer wanted to be involved with Markus - their brother - and that also meant they were back to the three of them travelling alone. Which to be honest, didn't bother Gray. In fact, he rather preferred it this way. Cooper's brother always gave a vibe that made him uncomfortable. Sometimes he thought he was more similar to Alpha than he knew…but that's not something he'd ever admit out loud.
Nevertheless, it was back to Cooper leading the way through what had slowly become denser, darker forest with more treacherous paths to traverse. They had become more reckless recently, as if they were trying to reach something more important than their own safety. Therehad been a few close calls when Gray or Jay had to bandage them up, and yet whenever they tried to hint that something was wrong, they were met with unconvincing reassurances that everything was fine.
That's how it happens.
One minute Gray is following behind them, the next he's running to the spot they once wereafter he sees them slip and fall, disappearing behind the ledge they were approaching.
Every possible worst-case scenario goes through his head; his systems are screaming at him as if he's the one who's in danger.
"COOPER!" He shouts, hearing the same name echoed from behind him by Jay.
Once he gets there though, relief floods through him like a drug as he finds them merely a few feet below, having fallen onto a shallow riverbank.
They're in a heap and dirty, but already brushing it off and clearly not hurt above a few scratches and bruises. Without thinking, Gray is jumping down after them, his superior strength and resilience making the leap a lot easier and more graceful for him.
"Hey, you okay?" He says, arms already reaching out to hold them.
"Y-yeah. Yeah, I'm good. Just a stupid mistake," They say, sounding angry with themselves.
"It's not stupid," He replies, brushing some dirt off their shoulders and they do the same to their clothes. There's a streak of mud across their cheek and he goes to clean it off, accidentally smudging it further across their skin. It's a few seconds before he realises he's essentially stroking their face. And that they're staring at him.
It's here, with the water rushing past and his mechanic covered in mud and a cacophony of different lifetime's words between them that he finally, finally, leans in to press his lips to theirs.
They taste like pine needles and firewood and home. It's like the inevitable, as if there's been an invisible string pulling them closer and closer and finally they've become tied.
It's everything he needs.
That is, until they break apart with the sound of a someone nearby clearing their throat.
Gray turns his head to see Jay looking at them, arms holding each other and Cooper's skin flushed.
"Well…I'm glad we're all still alive. And kissing. Fucking finally. So…can we maybe keep going because my optics are telling me that it's almost twilight and however much you two want to stick your tongues in each other's mouths, I'd like that to happen somewhere away from the creatures of the forest please."

Jwcc for the fandom ask thing!
Thank you for the ask Shadow! Camp Cretaceous deserves all the love and attention, fingers crossed that we see the gang in chaos theory (darius and ben already confirmed let's goooo!!!!)
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): damn this is tough. It's really, extremely close between yaz and darius, but I'll have to go with yaz (why are 90% of all my favourite characters emotionally repressed?) But yeah she's super cool and strong and her character and development are super interesting and together with sammy they're just cuteness incarnate
scrunkly (my "baby", character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): darius my baby dino nerd i will never let anyone hurt you (i want to turn him into a plushie and squeeze the life out of him). Also poor dude was going thru this shit at age twelve wtf get him some therapy
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/ underappreciated fave): I really don't see very much love for sammy, sure it's not like people dislike her or anything, but i feel like her character often gets glossed over (is that even an expression that exists?)
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won't shut up about it for a week): dave and roxie (it's two but who cares) honestly I have so much respect for them, they did their very best regarding the circumstances and i will not let anyone say anything negative about them
poor little meow meow ("problematic"/ unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): hmmmm kenji?? He has some pretty good wet cat vibes in the latest seasons. yes I know there's also early ben but I don't know, maybe because I watched them a long time ago??? I know the fandom adores ben and I love him too but I can't really relate
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): it seems like a habit of mine, to always torment my favourite characters the most. yeah it's between darius and yaz again, what can you do. there's just so many good and creative ways to hurt them, and they're already traumatised so they basically do half the setup on their own
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): wait are we saying send them to hell "affectionately" or literally? Anyway I'm gonna go literally because I cannot decide and I'll of course go with kenji's dad. like, what the fuck is wrong with this man
Just realised I didn't mention brooklyn at all, sorry girl please I love you too 😭😭

Kim Dokja Propaganda
he canonically dies seven times <3 he's tried and avoided dying even more than that. multiple characters in text have asked him to stop dying.
He literally plans his own death out and then gets surprised when it happens and people react to him dying he's so stupid I love him
he does it 12 times i'm not joking
i lost count but he's died and come back at least 4 times. mf won't stay dead (affectionate) but he's also so damn smug everytime like he didn't just give all his friends lasting trauma for the 3rd time that week
He is like, the perfect person for this tournament. He dies, and dies, and dies like every 5 seconds. And the majority of them are emotional. I think. Like, we know he's not actually dead but his friends don't (in most of them).
So here's some of my hightlights (Contains spoilers):
-His first death was by being incinerated by a dragon's breath (not really interesting, but it's his first death).
-There was an scenario(missions? kinda?) where they had to kill the strongest in the dome and nobody knew who it was so there were two really strong guys having a duel and while everyone else was busy watching it he killed himself behind a building and just waited for everyone to notice (he was the strongest in there).
+People called him ugly at his funeral
-Idk if it counts as a death but he sacrificed himself and got expelled from the system and I don't remember if his body was destroyed but I think yes. So this would normally mean you will die for real so everyone thought he was dead but he kept his soul alive by talking to himself and eating garbage and went to a doctor and leaded a coup d'etat and gave birth(? kinda?) all while pretending to be someone else.
-He was asleep while using a skill to watch his friends have a serious discussion about his kinks and dies.
this man. keeps. dying. everytime he dies it traumatises his kids and friends and then he does it again! eventually they just straight up locked him up in gay baby jail in an attempt to get him to stop dying. it didnt work. hes a disaster and i love him
That man CANNOT stop dying istg (via sacrificing his life) i don't even know how many times he's died,,, (it's the suicidal tendencies and the feeling he doesn't deserve a happy ending lbr)
(warning for spoilers in the next paragraph)
he has 1)died by throwing himself at a giant dragon 2)died by throwing himself in front of his blorbo/reason for living (who has threatened to kill him multiple times) at the hand of the woman who later on become his daughter (he came back from those 2 in a few minutes with a power that allowed him to resurrect if he saves 100 people) (he then lost this power and gained another that allowed him 7 resurrections but with a longer delay)
3)died by asking his internet bully/best friend to kill him to save the city 4)there was a prophecy he was going to be killed by the person he loves most. his mum killed him knowing about his resurrection power and hoping it would complete the prophecy. it did not. (fun fact he was passed out when that happened and his previously mentioned best friend was defending him, and she allowed the shot to hit his heart to avoid it hitting his crotch #priorities) 5)sacrificed himself by turning into the villain and making all his friends kill him to stop his blorbo from doing the same. fun fact he was the one to deliver the final blow and it did satisfy the prophecy. also for reasons his resurrection power didn't work here (he still found a way to come back though! but it was much more difficult and complicated
also, it's irrelevant to all this but he literally gets adopted by hades and persephone at some point and becomes the heir to the underworld
anyway this is very long and does not include all his deaths i don't think but you get the idea! orv is very good i promise don't get fooled by my shitty description lmao
This ridiculous man has an addiction to dying istg. He makes a point of obtaining every ability he can that allows him to return from death and chooses to throw himself in harms way constantly. His companions has to sedate him just to get him to take a break because he just will not stop dying on them. Hes a hamster of a man. Hes also just so pathetically average and abnormal at the same time and its great. Throughout the whole story, people try to convince him to stop sacrificing himself for them, but he just keeps doing it because he doesnt really know how else to show how much he cares because he is incredibly emotionally stunted (its the trauma!). Orv is legitimately such a good webnovel, it changed my brain chemistry permanently. Its a really great read because it contains a little bit of everything, so you get to enjoy a bunch of different genres. Its also pretty fast paced but not rushed, so the plot is always moving forward but not feeling forced. There arent really any plotholes either, because it accomplishes what it set out to do as a story. Only issue some people have getting into it is that the first chunk of chapters are kinda slow, but it really starts to pick up after the disasters and keeps getting better from there. Also that it has 551 chapters, but these chapters are all necessary, trust me. The ending is so good. Just try to avoid spoilers some if you do check it out; they dont necessarily ruin the experience but some major plot moments are revealed. Also, I really reccommend reading the actual webnovel instead of the manhwa(which is the webtoon) because the manhwa edits a lot of things out and is much plainer than the actual story. Anyway, sorry that this turned into me telling you to read the novel instead of campaigning for kdj. But! Its what he would have wanted, seeing as he once read a webnovel as the sole reader of it for over 10 years.
Okay so. This man has died over 10 times (I'm not counting the exact number I'm sorry). He got burned to death fighting a super dangerous dragon, he died IN FRONT OF HIS FOUND FAMILY. then he pushed another member of his found family away from a fatal attack and took it on himself, causing him to get a huge hole right through his stomach and said member of his found family to go beserk over his death cause he didn't know he'd come back to life. He then asked a different member of his found family to KILL HIM. because he needed to die for everyone else to survive or whatever so he convinced her to kill him even though she didn't want to. And then HE GOT KILLED BY HIS FOUND FAMILY AGAIN. because once again he had to 'die' for everyone to survive but specifically he had to be killed by his found family, so he got stabbed through the heart by one of his found family members and then crumbled to dust in said family member's arms. He 'died' and disappeared for 3+ YEARS , and came back just as his ff were finally moving on from him. (Also he came back in a giant squid form that couldn't communicate with the FF at all and almost got killed my the ff AGAIN...) there's... A lot. More but it's been a while since I've read the novel so I don't remember every single death unfortunately but yeah 👍
He died like 12 times and traumatized all his companions with that
Over the course of 100 chapters, this man managed to die and get revived FIVE GODDAMN TIMES. And he keeps doing it. Nobody's doing it like him fr fr
i’m still read orv but as far as i’ve heard that’s his whole thing other than being gay for the protagonist of his favourite web comic who is real now
hoooo boy. i think he dies around 8 times in total? and somehow each time is worse than the last..... the first 3-4 times he has a skill that lets him regenerate, so its mostly fine (there is some good angst about his companions worrying he died for real, though, and at least one funeral scene).
then theres a prophecy about how he will be killed by "the person he loves most" and, without spoiling it too much, hes killed by the person he loves most. sword through the heart and touching last words and everything. its fucking DEVASTATING. he survives with a bunch of cheat code bullshit and then next time they see him is weeks or months later in the fucking demon realm with a body thats falling apart.
then a while later he almost dies AGAIN but when they go to save him he gets kidnapped and sent to another world and they dont see him for FOUR YEARS. hes obviously presumed dead while hes off in another worldline trying to get back
uh. there might be more than that. this novel is VERY long. anyway it gets to a point where any problem thats too big gets solved by him sacrificing himself while his companions scream and cry and beg him not to. and then he shows up later like "see! i survived :)" and they get so upset because why does he keep DOING this??? and he doesnt see the issue because he did it to save them! its a happy ending as long as no one dies (but not me though. its fine if i die as long as no one else does)
anyway, all this to say. basically his defining trait is that he dies and comes back. hes infamous for it and his companions start to hate it about him. one of them literally tries to pay a HEAVY price to ensure that he cant die anymore. hes GOTTA be on this bracket
Self-sacrifice is the only way he knows how to express love because it's the only form of love he was shown as a child. He keeps dying for his companions even while knowing that he is traumatizing them and thinking that they will hate him for it eventually (just like he hated his mom) because he thinks he deserves to be hated. The entire novel is about saving him. My god.
This man has died (and revived) about thirteen different times (I think? Very easy to lose count), and that’s only including successful attempts, he tries to sacrifice himself many more times. His companions are literally begging him to stop killing himself to save the world. They come very close to just tying him up so he can’t go running off again.
In terms of his general character he is just a guy who hyperfixates on a bad webnovel for 13 years straight, I’m talking about 3000+ chapters that he was the sole reader of because no one else made it past ch100. Then when the webnovel gets its final update the events of the novel start happening in the real world, as the only person who has read to the end he has vital information to save the world. He pisses off the protagonist within a minute of meeting and then proceeds to have a high-key homoerotic relationship with him, with both of them becoming so intertwined that neither would exist without the other and creating a timeloop that sets the entire plot into motion (I can’t go into more details without spoilers). If you’d like more details then I highly recommend the YouTube video “badly explaining all of omniscient reader in 6 minutes” by ferd because it’s hilarious and leaves out just enough context that you don’t even feel like you’re getting spoiled because it’s so batshit

i saw you talk about wolf a few times from sekiro and was wondering if you'd want to share more of your thoughts on him or sekiro as a whole, the game really interests me compared to other dark souls games so i wanted to ask
sorry for the late reply but oh boy do I have thoughts abt wolf. trying not to spoil the game, so I'm gonna refrain from talking about the story. might go into just restating known things about the game, but I'd much rather play it safe and not spoil the story
before going to that. the game is very much different from dark souls (setting wise, while taking place in a fictional country it is in a historical setting. I cannot comment on the setting properly bc I don't know much about the time period, however), most notably in the combat (primarily shifting from a dodge-centric playstyle to a parry-centric playstyle (significantly easier than dark souls/elden ring parrying, however), with dodges having significantly shorter i-frames and being very unreliable for dodging attacks). it's very different but something I really enjoy, even if I'm not as good as I am at typical soulsborne combat. it's really fun when you get the hang of it, and while I might not be The Best at it (which is mostly bc of how different it is from soulsborne games, so ofc I'm not as good at is as I am at the other fromsoft games I've played), it's something I can still enjoy
a huge thing about sekiro is the difference in how the story is told. in soulsborne games the story is something you have to figure out; progressing through the main path doesn't give you enough to piece everything together if you don't read any lore. with sekiro, however, the story is significantly more obvious, on account of the playable character having unique ties to the world and its characters, rather than going the soulsborne route of being one of many people (wording hard, but the chosen undead for example is no one special, just one of many undead trying to link the flame). it's a very different method of storytelling, but is still something really good. for as much as I adore having to actively hunt down lore and story in soulsborne games, it's also great experiencing story through natural game progression
wolf is also canonically disabled (loses his left arm at the start of the game) and has a really fucking cool prosthetic that is a whole part of the combat system (even though I personally keep forgetting to use it). so good for him. he deserves a prosthetic that can have deadly weaponry attached to it. like a mini-flamethrower. he deserves a mini-flamethrower, as a treat.
putting the wolf thoughts beneath a read more because this is getting long and I might spoil some stuff (mostly relationship with another character, I'll try to refrain from story spoilers. also spoilers in general, but there might be some), and he has definitely become a blorbo (additionally, content warning for abuse)
first of all. wolf makes me want to throw myself off a cliff and I mean this in the most positive way ever. he is great and I love him but man he needs so much fucking therapy and he doesn't even realise it (therapy probably doesn't exist in that time period, but besides the point). he is very much traumatised and has been heavily shaped by it and doesn't even know it.
prior to the events of the game (I forgot how long ago it was) he was orphaned by war and got taken in by owl, a shinobi and also a piece of fucking garbage. owl raises wolf to be a shinobi under the iron code, with the number one rule being loyalty to his father (owl), with his master (kuro, the divine heir) a close second (and also to give his life for his master if necessary. which is also a whole other thing to get into).
owl is very explicitly abusive. he raises wolf as a tool rather than a person, and that upbringing severely affects wolf as a character - he is an incredibly capable shinobi, but lacks any skills other than that; he does not know how to be a proper person, he is a loyal wolf, but he does not know how to be anything other than that. hell, without spoiling too much about the context, there is a cutscene in which owl actively attempts to guilt trip wolf, going as far as using fake tears (saying anything specific is very spoilery. this isn't even the only horrid thing he's done, but I'm trying to refrain from too many spoilers).
wolf canonically does not value himself without anyone to serve (we see this at the beginning of the game, as events prior to the start of the game not yet known about leads him to believe he has no one to serve, and thus no purpose, so he isolates himself from the world in a well for 3 years). while he does have compassion for others (most notable example being concern over victims of dragonrot), he starts off the game driven primarily by duty. he is loyal to a fault, willing to do anything for kuro, but also valuing his service to kuro more than himself (cannot remember the exact wording, but when kuro expresses concern for how many times wolf has died for him, wolf states that it does not matter as it was in service to him).
there's also the fact that wolf canonically eats uncooked rice and genuinely doesn't know - as a fully grown adult - you are supposed to cook it, which is... genuinely something awful if you truly think about it and what more it implies about his upbringing especially considering it's one of the most basic things you could learn how to make (just... says a lot about owl if you seriously think about it).
he is a loyal wolf, but he doesn't know how to be more than that. he doesn't know how to just... exist for himself, to be his own person separate of his duty and he doesn't even recognise just how fucked up it is, because how could he, when he was shaped into this as a child, when his own father wanted him to be nothing more than a tool to use.
I could say a lot more about his relationships with other characters (that are actually good people) and how it just. makes me lose my mind, but this post is almost 1k words. so, simply put, kuro genuinely caring about him makes me so fucking emotional, especially bc of owl; his father might be horrible and an abuser, he might not know how to be more than he was raised, but at the very least he can serve someone who actively cares about him and his wellbeing.
#THERE IS SO MUCH TO DISSECT ABT HIS CHARACTER AND HOW HEAVILY IT WAS AFFECTED BY HIS UPBRINGING#I've seen a handful of people call him boring bc he doesn't say much and isn't that expressive emotionally and none of them are valid#I'm gonna explode those people with my mind powers. he isn't boring you just don't understand how to analyse characters#I need need need to get this man to some fucking therapy he so desperately needs it and doesn't even know it#if there ever was a fromsoft character most in need of therapy poll he would sweep and if he didn't I'd explode people with my mind powers#also I realise now a lot of my thoughts abt the game are just. restating known parts abt the game. I apologise for not being more specific#if you wanted to know my thoughts abt the story specifically. oops. I AM sorry but I do want to play it safe#I also do really appreciate how it was like. the (or at least one of?) first game in this time period made by a japanese company#which is part of why there are some things I do not know how to comment on bc I am very much a white canadian#also has a small poison swamp location. might be a plus for some people. I personally don't mind most poison swamps too much though#and ngl I kinda miss the iconic large poison swamp you have to traverse. it could be really fun being able to grapple#did I mention his prosthetic has a fucking grapple built in? well it does and it's really fun for movement.

i have a lot of ocs lol because i made up an entire merc group just because
but my most fleshed out ocs are:
Romanas Dobrovolnekas - calm dude with a sadistic streak, lowkey the "dad" of an entire subdivision in the merc group, cqc specialist and torturer extraordinaire, likes making things with his hands
Hazzard - big bitch, biochemical weapons engineer, a hater (like seriously man likes only two people in existance), quiet guy who loves animals, plants and two people
Void - mute guy who just spawned in the merc group one day. nobody knows anything about him. the youngest in the group, sneaky and slippery, very flexible, short and not as muscular or burly as the other two but his strong suit is sneaking and assassinations so he's good at what he does. questionably human
their backstories are a whole nother thing lol
i have a few i haven't fleshed out as much and those are:
Johan von Engelmann - head medic. doctor/neurosurgeon with a revoked medical license and questionable morals/ethics, calm but very threatening/unsettling, glasses, always smiling, 7'3 in height and built like a spider. the most feared person in the group after the commander
Diana - apprentice studying under Johan. nice girl with some questionable morals (Johan is slowly pulling her to the dark side) dark, curly hair and very vivid blue eyes, quiet and shy a bit of a pushover but very competent in what she does
Vaccine and Dartboard - twins from the sub division i mentioned before, oppurtunistic cannibals, unhinged and silly goofy, very fast
Vendetta - sniper, haven't decided on their gender yet, red hair/scarf, you'll never know where they are but you'll know they're there, doesn't listen well but gets their job done
Selga - attack dog, sharp teeth, severly traumatised but the commander of the group won't get rid of him or get him the proper help. only listens to Romanas, situational cannibal, very strong and fast and extremely viscious
Boss - the man who takes over the group once the current commander is no longer around. actually a good man who treats his soldiers well, the reason my ocs get soft endings, dilf, the group would kill for him, doesn't really assert his "authority" that much, he's more of a figurehead/for formalities sake, great soldier and he does all the coordinating so he does the job of "leader" despite not really pressing the soldiers to obey, they do because they like him, tamed an entire merc group filled with unhinged, traumatised people and accidentally became their dad whoops
lmao this is probably kind of trash because i suck at describing and didn't want to get in too deep into my dumbass ocs lol
im sorry im actually having fun telling someone about my nonsense made up blorbos
Sorry, first I just want to say Feral!Stone would absolutely love the OCs who are situational/opportunistic cannibals. Because he is a cannibal.
Second of all, don't apologize!
I love Boss but that's my daddy issues coming into play.
Hazzard only liking two people is such a mood and it's on par for him loving animals. Animals are better company than humans.
Johan still being the head medic despite no longer having his medical license is funny to me. Love that he's morally gray.
Selga being an attack dog and only listens to Romanas is relatable. (I really do love OCs who are absolutely feral.)
Vaccine and Dartboard being unhinged and very goofy twins? I love that for them.
Vendetta sounds like a badass regardless of their gender identity. They sound like they pop out of nowhere (like Sarabi does).
Diana sounds like she's so pretty.
Void being questionably human and having just spawned into the group is just chef's kiss. Love that he's mute.
Romanas, sometimes sadistic men are needed.
Anyways, I love them all.
#tyler's asks#tyler's inbox#tyler answers asks#answering asks#asks#other ocs#oc talk#the serotonin boost I got when seeing two asks about separate OCs...#I love it#love hearing about other OCs#:)

brubo bingo
Since this is on Anon, I'm not sure if you're on Bizarre Retirement, but if you are then you probably already know of the story with Bruno I'm cooking which. I should be put in Fandom Jail for Blorbo Abuse Crimes for. It is just Hurt Comfort story of self exploration and dealing with trauma but with way too much Hurt for one's own good since most of it is self indulgance and exploration of things through pain and consequences.
I am not gonna ramble about it here, I am currently writing first chapter of it but that story is kind of proof that I project onto him too much and give him all of my issues as well as just keeping on traumatising him and putting him through way too much.
Bruno means too much for me, he is definitely something akin to a comfort character but so is near everyone in Bucci Gang. Mostly because I relate to so many aspects of him, his personality, his backstory, his disposition just him as a person. Which is kind of why I hate how fandom keeps on trying to make him so heavily one-dimensional or put him into one box and refuse to expand their view beyond that.
I also don't like people reducing him into a "weirdo". Mostly because things they call him a weirdo for aren't that weird in the context and because as someone who suffers of Catatonia he is just relatable and I really do not find it comfortable people ridiculising something that isn't really that bad. He may do or say "out of ordinary" things sometimes but disregarding his entire character and just putting the "clown" up to 11 because you saw few small scenes that you considered inappropriate [for some reason] is quite literally just removing all the nuance and being boring.
And then the second extreme of removing the weirdness and quirkness and making Bruno into some kind of charming guy with a poker face who is in control of everything, some kind of perfect man who can do no wrong and is just perfect. That is also boring and is also removing all of the nuance he has.
I think fandom doesn't understand Bruno because they are not able to shift their perspective on how Bruno is viewing his life and how he decides to do of it. They just assume one of the extreme because it is easier to put him in a box than to consider.
#ask game#bingo game#didnt expect to go on a ramble but when i started listing those stuff... yeah#bruno is just someone i am too passionate about#means too much for me#i always have way too much to say about him#bruno buccellati

WAIT DO THIS FOR , CHEVAL , JOSEPH, JOTARO AND KAKYOIN
HEHE ALL 4 AT ONCE BABY
Cheval. The first blorbo. The spoinky. The salad, the djdjdjdjdjdjjd
His character was so good in MHS1 (WHY IS HE LIKE THAT IN MHS2) but I think he could've been better if the plot as a whole was better (but hey it's monster hunter we don't expect good plot)
If I saw him IRL it's on sight. Your hair is going in my mouth I WILL know what it tastes like
Joseph <3
I'm so normal about him I am normal I am normal please believe me
Please everyone I promise I'm aroace he hasn't gotten to me I'm so normal about him
That aside, Joseph's like the most batshit insane character ever and it's not explored enough
He pulled a machine gun out of his ass and shot up a café (like yeah a vampire was in there but didn't he think of...you know...the people in there...)
I shake him and his singular braincell rattles around and he sounds like a knockoff maraca
As you can tell from the game discord server I really wanna put him in a meat grinder
I also want to make him soup or smth and shove it down his throat, soup waterboarding or something
I wanna also
Jotaro. He is literally me
He is the autism mascot I have never seen someone radiate that much autism energy before
I wanna give him a hug and tell him it's gonna be alright, he has so much trauma :(
Also I hate how most of the fandom sees him sorry. You can't go and be all sad about Caesar's father and Lisa Lisa abandoning their family and children to protect them from evil only to turn around and have a go at Jotaro for being absent in most of Jolyne's life, he was being attacked almost daily, a child shouldn't be around that sort of stuff he made the right choice to not traumatise/possibly get his daughter killed he loved her and that's why he did it for God's sake I *eats my phone, slams wall*
Jotaro needs therapy so bad holy fucking shit dude
Sometimes I think about the time they were all on the verge of falling off a cliff and him and Kakyoin just started talking about sumo. You two are so silly
This man is like. The most normal unhinged guy ever. I cannot describe Kakyoin fully what the fuck is wrong with him in the head ♥️
I can never get it out of my head that he has canonically fed a baby it's own shit. Then threatened to do WORSE to the baby
Like sure it was deserved the baby was trying to kill them all but like holy shit his first plan for dealing with it was to blast that bitch into the stratosphere with Hierophant Green like who thinks of doing that to a BABY – I know he had his suspicions and all (also the cuts on his wrist) but holy shit man you really went from 0 to 100 in a few seconds with that one huh
Also I wanna team up with him and kick Dio to death. Like you're never shown what Dio does to him but the implications are....not nice. I want to go feral with Noriaki Kakyoin I need to kill a man with him
He would help me soup waterboard Joseph I think
He needs therapy

for the ask thingy please do dw! Obvious ask of course but I want to see your choices :))
Okay, great. I didn't expect to actually answer this help I need time to think XD
Anyways, here's my
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): I can't really decide on one, can I say Jenny and Vastra? Kate? 13? Bweeehhh, I love them all so much. But I have been stuck with Jenny & Vastra as my special interest for over one and a half years... Sooo
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): Yeah this one is Vastra and Jenny again. No I will not separate them, in the audios bad things tend to happen when they are apart
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): I wanted to say Yaz at first because unfortunately I have a bunch of friends who don't appreciate her enough, but actually... OSGOOD! Osgood is so criminally underrated, I love her. She's incredibly smart and resourceful, and I love her clothes that are always a hint to the Doctor's. Also, Strax is underrated and underappreciated, he is a silly little homicidal potato sometimes, but his heart is in the right place.
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): My mind jumped to that one soldier in A Good Man goes to War that died, who saw the Doctor as a kid, and afterwards the Doctor asks Vastra who she was, and Vastra says that she was a very brave soldier, but she doesn't know her. Not sure why, but that just. Stuck with me.
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave) Am I allowed to say Vella? And Restac? Basically I love Silurians and will absolutely throw away my morals for them, Restac should've been allowed to kill Ambrose :)
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason) I want to torture the Eleventh Doctor, for whatever the FUCK that one scene in Crimson Horror was (actually the forced kiss and his stupid screwdriver rising afterwards). Simply by telling Vastra about it and watching her hunt that bastard down, then snap him with her tongue so he regenerates right then and there :) Also, oddly enough an audio where Missy is being a bit tortured by you could say a sort of conscience of herself is one of my comfort audios (related to the voice actors they chose, hopefully) so maybe I want to torture her too, a little. You know what, that bitch killed one Osgood and yeeted Kate off the plane, she deserves to be tortured. And don't get me started on Clara and Danny Pink, they're being sent to super hell :)
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell) moffat So, the Master - except for Missy - can go fucking die, and if I Have to see Grand Serpent's STUPID face again, I will skin him and make him into a bag... Also Clara and Danny Pink can rot in hell for all I care. Also whoever traumatised me with Paternoster Audios

THE BOYS
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): annie starlight. idk shes blonde and i want her to raw me. i think that is abt the best i can achieve with this show

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): madelyn stillwell ig? my milf was really out there weaponising milfdom even if by god i wish she didnt. deserved a pay rise for all that she had to do. misoginy at the workplace
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): does the ant-man guy who does the pussy dive in the first episode count? i guess?? icon??
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): ashley barret, for the pathetic fave category. my girl is out there being a secretary to momy kink guy with all the help her wobbly moral compass and spine made of jello can afford. literally so me <3
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): homelander. those freudian issues compel me (derogatory)
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): homelander again. im just traumatised. like. heyyo. and ill stand by this statement in the likely case jackles is going to get his tits suckled by this dude.
ALIEN
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): to no-ones, surprise, DAVID 8 WEYLAND. literally the most cunt an android has ever served. literal cultural reset. i cannot talk abt this man enough, and by god if the comments of my mutuals are of any indication yall have heard me talk abt his a whole lot
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): elizabeth shaw. shescute, but shell abort your alien fetus right in your face. queen.
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): vickers. those daddy issues give her the edge. less serious response, the homosexual rock guys, homophobia may have killed them but they touched balls for sure before it did
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): the engineer from prometheus. mental illness luv
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): also david, still for the pathetic and 'problematic' (with the quotation marks) fave. HE
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): elizabeth's shitty partner whose name escapes me
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): walter. simply bc he is the castiel of my prometheus. there to homosexual it up, but i do not fundamentally care abt him and superhell is a good place as any to squat and not be on my scree

for the fandom asks:
- gallifrey
- .........and i know *i* know nothing abt it but if you have the time for it,,,,,, power rangers...? i wanna hear u get excited abt something you really really love again jdhfjfjkf
Send me a fandom and I’ll tell you my:
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)
Gallifrey:
Blorbo: It's hard to say because I love all of them but it's probably going to end up being Romana because she just needs a hug and for people to listen but also to listen to other people because everyone should listen to Romana, she's right, until she's not at which point Romana Stop.
Scrunkly: Narvin, obviously. My Baby War Criminal. It's wild listening to the early episodes and hearing him be such an Asshole (derogatory) when you know he's going to develop and become an Asshole (affectionate) but seeing that development is glorious.
Scrimblo Bimblo: Aaaaaaaaaace! I know she's not underappreciated in the fandom but the series didn't do enough with her. Also Eris, who Deserved Better.
Glup Shitto: Mephistopheles Arkadian, of course! I know he appeared for a few episodes but he just made such an impression, he's The Worst and I love hearing him get stamped on.
Poor Little Meow Meow: Valyes. I know it's popular to hate Valyes. It's also correct to hate Valyes, he's awful and I hate him. But he's such a slimy fucker that I can't help but find him entertaining when he gets stamped on, much like Arkadian.
Horse Plinko: Braxiatel, the Bastard Man himself. I have written a few stories involving him but not enough that involve him losing dignity in funny ways because as much as it's great seeing him be a bastard, watching him get stamped on is just so entertaining. This is a theme now, isn't it?
Eeby Deeby: I know you're expecting me to say Darkel but she's honestly quite entertaining and effective as a villain. Nope, I'm going to say Zakar because fuck him. He's such a bastard that I can't even find him entertaining. He's just disgusting and I hate him.
Power Rangers:
Blorbo: I'm not entirely sure which to pick here. Do I pick the Ranger Slayer, who ended up becoming so runaway popular that she keeps coming back because everyone loves Formerly Evil Punk Rock Alternate Future Kimberly Hart? But also Ellarien the Purple Solar Ranger, who also ended up being runaway popular for being amazing and awesome and the first canon black lesbian in the franchise along with Remi her wonderful girlfriend? Or do I pick Doctor K, who desperately needs so many hugs and whose backstory episode genuinely makes me cry every time (and also the bit in the finale of Power Rangers RPM where she finally erases her greatest mistake and gets vindication on everything she's done since then?). Or maybe I should pick Jen Scotts, the hardass drill sergeant time traveller who learns to love life again as she saves the world time and time again? There's so many options.
Scrunkly: This one I am gonna say Doctor K. The image of the most intelligent woman in the world, but also one of the most traumatised, hanging around eating way too much sugar in bunny slippers while steadfastly refusing to emotionally connect with anyone until she just can't help it anymore is wonderful (oh! Add her reunion with Gem and Gemma onto the list of Doctor K Moments That Make Me Cry!)
Scrimblo Bimblo: Cassie! Cassie Chan is honestly my favourite member of the Zordon Era. She tends to get overshadowed by Kim or Kat or Andros or TJ (and that's not even talking about how fucking everyone in that era gets constantly overshadowed by Tommy and Jason) but she's just the best. Also it's harder to tell in Power Rangers in Space because she's normally in uniform but take one look at any of her outfits from Power Rangers Turbo and tell me that she's straight. She has the most lesbian fashion sense and I love it.
Glup Shitto: I'd wanna say Ellarien because she appeared in one story arc in the comics that nobody ever seems to talk about (in fact I think I was the first person to write a fic about her on AO3, and that was a couple years after she debuted) but she did get a reappearance later in the comic so maybe she's not as obscure as I tend to assume.
Poor Little Meow Meow: Eric Myers. Much like Narvin I talked about from Gallifrey, he starts out as an asshole (derogatory) but once he confronts his own racism and comes to the conclusion that he's actually wrong he genuinely does a lot of development very quickly and is one of the best characters (seriously, Trip Takes a Stand as an episode may not have aged that great (and I've written essays about that, and how Power Rangers Time Force as a whole handles the awkward subject) but for Eric's development it's a real turning point and afterwards he's a genuinely endearing character once he stops being a racist). He's a cop whose character arc is learning why being a cop is bad and then he (sort of) quits and that's great to me.
Horse Plinko: I mean, half of my Power Rangers writing has been about Ranger Slayer and that whole bucket of Trauma. You can't really write her without either tormenting her or tormenting everyone around her.
Eeby Deeby: This is not an unpopular opinion but Mentor Ji. He just fucking sucks, a mentor character written so badly he ends up coming across as completely unreasonable. He's written like the kind of asshole parental figure that the characters will grow beyond and realise that he's been awful to them (like Wes Collins' father if Mr. Collins didn't have any of his own character development) but he never realises he was wrong, and we're apparently supposed to agree with him. He sucks, and while there are plenty of problems with Power Rangers Samurai, the series would have been orders of magnitude better without him.
Thanks for the ask! Enjoy my wild ramblings!

10% my actual responsibilities
200% Aqua Kingdom Hearts <3 <3 <3
shes just so !!!!!!!!! <3 shes the blorbo that is the main tenant in my brain rn, like shes got the penthouse suite. its to the point where i draw her more than anyone else in kh and is probs the only character where i have their design Memorised™ lmao
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped):
SORAAAAAA literally he is so Shaped. like. (grabs him and throws him at the wall like a squeaky toy) literally he was the reason i got into kingdom hearts bc for YEARS i was like. love that guy <3 love to know his whole Deal someday and when he was added to smash i was like AAAA ITS TIME
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave):
do the ff characters count? if so, i love leon so much <3 hes literally just some guy that decided to help this poor child with a weird weapon out for shits and gigs, also yuffie and cid r so funny. i care them <3
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week):
see above hehe
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave):
axel mainly bc hes kind of fruity and kinda messed up but hes not rlly unpopular or controversial hes just kind of that weird but cool uncle that only comes over on christmas and plays mario kart with all the kids and i love him
im not rlly a "poor little meow meow" type person, i dont watch supernatural
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason):
the heart hotel bc i like torturing both myself and the skrunglos
(puts them thru the plinko) NOW DEVELOP!!!!!
vanitas is the only one mostly removed from the plinko-ing bc honestly i just want better things for him at this point, but the rest of the Sortas get the horse treatment
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell):
i will personally smite all the 'norts for obvious reasons i dont need to get into but also eraqus gets to go too only bc his younger self was voiced by drake bell. soz bestie you had great hair and being voiced by mark hamil Almost saved you but.... dont traumatise young kids by projecting ur black and white thinking onto them, goddamn
