some quotes that kind of sum up where I'm at right now
"I'm not allowed to make suicide jokes anymore, so self-deprecating humor is all I have."
"self-care? in this economy?"
"ah yes, the age old question: why the fuck am I in pain."
"I'm only here through the sheer will of god and the strength of fictional men."
"Full-time job? I already have one. it's called school."
"yeah...... she pinged, I think she's aroace"
#i'm fine lol#self-care is important kids#I'm going to take a shower and see if warm water + (safe) drugs + food + doctor strange will fix me

For a long time I didn't understand why I was so obsessed with lotr, especially the relationship between Sam n Frodo, as the years have gone by I can only come to the conclusion that as a 14 year old queer kiddo who just It had been discovered a few months ago and that continued to scared a lot even feeling uncomfortable for what them little self was, I came to feel safe, secure and understood on levels that I had never felt before.
It wasn't just that they acted gay or said sweet things to each other, it was that I saw myself in them, I could finally see that people like me have always existed, that they have always loved each other. Seeing how they cared for each other and expressed their love made me think I was not alone.
I wasn't the only one to feel this way because they loved each other too. Bc I grew up in a conservative family I thought I wasn't worthy of love, but seeing them made me realize that that kind of "love" I felt has always been there.
Sam n Frodo are not just a ship for me, they are an important part of my path to self-acceptance. Thanks to them I learned that I was not wrong.
(a cute drawing made my dearest friend Fergii that is part of a reencarnation au we have on wattpad)
#lotr#lord of the rings#sam gamgee#frodo baggins#samfro#sam x frodo#queer kids#They really help me to doing better#Except for the part that my parents sent me to the psychiatrist for talk so much about them#self care#The queer media is important#I am Tolkien so I can say they are in love

Has it ever been confirmed that Bayonetta has met Enzo's family? Because ngl, I would love it if Bayonetta and Mrs. Enzo were friends.
Can you imagine it?? Enzo has all these issues with Bayo and is getting caught up in her and Jeannes' constant fight with Paradiso. Meanwhile, his wife absolutely loves his new mysterious boss, who is the perfect combination of classy and sassy. Literally the best woman to be friends with.
Idk. I know most likely that they haven't met, but I just really like this idea.
(It's probably best to add; I'm only just replacing Bayonetta 2 recently after years, and I haven't played the third game, so I probably am missing quite a few details 😅)
#Bayonetta#Jeanne#Enzo#Nintendo#Sega#Mrs. Enzo#yes shes getting her own tag#also- can we talk about Bayonetta in the second game asigning Rodin the role of playing Santa for the kids?#like- considering that she was focused on rescuing her wife she could have easily just said that it wasnt important and dragged Enzo away#and yeah she didnt OFFICIALLY appoint Rodin the job- just tossed the toy jet to him and said 'someone else can play Santa'#but still. It could be that shes just naturally soft woth kids (see her past self and Loki) but can you imagine if-#she actually MET Ed and Edna?? and started to care about them??? at least a little?????#and think about it from Mrs. Enzo's POV; her husbands boss sent someone to stand in as Santa when she called him back for 'work'#granted its not so great that she took him away from Christmas. but what other boss would make sure your kids get to see Santa#in your husbands absence?!#im probably just reaching for straws here. But still. Food for thought ^^#Bayonetta 2#Bayonetta 3#Rodin

procrastination is starting to have its consequences finally
#on my friends living room floor they love together but one of them has been london for weeks or maybe months#to be with her love. im on a foam mattress from one of their beds next to a glass bottle of water opened by one of them#in a mug given to me by another. the weather felt like my childhood today and it also felt like 2 years ago.#(put space in the heavens Einstein's idea and hes your friend too so nothing to fear) around the table they drank and laughed and i thought#i hope you keep growing so full with the love you receive . i hope your appetite becomes insatiable from how used to it you are#and i know youre all leaving soon but i hope one day you miss this and that youll be happy you miss it#its worth missing i think#i thought he didnt care but he said after exams hes going walk around this area over and over#(this is near where he lived and where we visited almost daily for a year)#(hed come across the bridge on a lake)#we went where she used to live and at the entrance a fox sat calmly. it just yawned and stared.#it felt important somehow. i think maybe their impressions of me will never be close to how i feel inside but i think#i love them enough for that not to matter. i dont think theyll ever know this. i dont think if they did it would change much.#and seeing them smile makes my heart glow anyway. today i tried their malaysian tea the ginger burned my throat#they warmed my heart. hes going to canada soon and hes going to the US soon and shes going everywhere soon ill never understand#how were supposed to live with memories and with seperation and with the past but we do it anyway so i think it doesnt matter much#i wanted to write a poem for the lab rats with the fibre optic wires lit with blue forcing them to turn around and around#something about how im sorry that the two photon arrays burned the inside of your brain. im sorry about the sharp points of multielectrode#arrayes. im sorry about everything we do to you. she asked to see me tomorrow. im trying to have self control but i miss her so awfully#last night my friend talked to me and i updated on everything that happened with love and the lack of it and she just started laughing#and she told me about the same thing from her side. and she told me about how she loved london because she would walk the streets#and she felt like the people were her. and her eyes would go over the people and the bag of bagels and the construction men they probably#have a kid at home maybe shes a daughter. this kid is crying for her mother and the building you just walked past caused#blisters and pain and people died in it and very likely people were born in it. we talked for hours and i felt like#i was holding her hand just like that time she held mine watching a horror film. i love her so much#my friend is a genius and i remember her picking up the charms of my phone and staring at the leaf hanging from them. shes side stepping to#music drinking dangerous cider and cocktails from a movie and chit chatting with billionaires and undergrads#i love her dearly. his head covered in electrodes. she tells me about a syrian guy shes in love with and she says#what you feel and what i feel is like cocaine. ive tried a lot of fucking cocaine.#she says ive reminded her of what living actually feels like and to never put energy into someone who doesnt see me this way.

How would kid react to being compared to keith? I assume not well, but i think its interesting bc to me it does seem like shes at least in some ways similiar to him, personality wise... Like shes a stubborn and scrappy reckless child who is also very very angry. And that's kinda who keith was when he was younger (dunno how hes doing rn)! Its like. She hates him she despises him and shed propably rather die than be like him but also she is. She is a little bit like him. Shes determined and capable and stubborn and reckless and i wonder if lance or kuron ever jokingly said she reminds them of him <- bet shes not too happy about that. How does she see herself in relation to him? How does she feel about the parts of her that are on some level similiar to him? Does she try to stomp down those traits ore does she keeps them in spite of it all, a 'fighting fire with fire' kind of situation? Keith has always been a stubborn fuck and its ironic that the same trait is what lead kid to seek him out to kick his ass... Idk if this makes sense but. yeah.
Also this image is very kid coded<3
image id- a screenshot of a tiktok saying "Stop blaming everyone for all your problems. Pick one person you hate and blame them for everything"
Pretty much yeah. Thing is Kid has never met Keith and Ara never really liked to talking about him beyond answering questions like who he is and what does he do. So in Kid's mind Keith is a let's just is a bit........different person than he actually is (she thinks he is a selfish arrogant asshole jerk who only cares about himself and clearly ripping off of the other paladins's hardwork while he fucks around and then steal the credit)
So to her she's nothing like Keith at all, cause in her head Keith's the biggest asshole in the universe, and she's like what normal? Everything she's doing is 'justified' so like whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (Kid is a smart kid with many skills but self introspection is not one of them). And this attitude is most likely going to carry on even when she meets Keith. To her Keith abandoned her and Ara without a word because he was selfish, while she left without a word to help Ara and not worry them. (Cause just like how Keith yelled at Pidge for trying to leave only to fuck off when the team really needed him, the hypocrisy is also inherited).
So to answer your question, she will fucking hate it but more because to her it's just plain wrong and these people clearly don't know her, because she's nothing like that asshole how dare you 🤬🤬😡😡?
(Lance brought it up once and she bit him so he never brought it up again cause it clearly upsets her and Definitely Not because he doesn't want to get bit again haha Definitely Not Jesus Christ what are her teeth made of?? but like he and Kuron and even Ara all Know™, it's very clear to them where certain habits and mannerisms of her are coming from)
That being said once she grows up a bit more and realizes that oh shit she was a lot like Keith, then it's a critical hit psychic damage. It's just full on Shinji pose for days, she will not survive that Realization™ it will actually kill her on the inside, even if this hit at the age where she has mostly calmed down
#And yup that picture is her#I do think there are slight differences. Like Kid is lot more social than Keith and open about her problems too#Much more willing to do and is better at teamwork but also much quicker to anger and self centered#And she doesn't really care about her 1/4th galran Or human heritage. It's not even like 'oh she hates herself for it'#more like she just doesn't care. It's not important to her#Anyway thanks for asking!!!!!#empty answers#c&ai au

‘The point is not “is bftc good Jason characterization”’
Actually the point can be anything that the op of the post wants it to be. Oh you mean that is not your point. Um …. Cool. Nobody asked.
#*provides canon proof of Jason absolutely traumatizing teens in canon*#/s#*the whopping two instances are titans tower and the Mia Dearden incident*#both of which happened around the same time as uth. effectively making Jason approximately … eighteen or nineteen.#while Mia was 17 and Tim was like 16. wow how could this seasoned old man be so cruel to these literal babies#this is coming from someone who cares deeply about how different authors’ visions for bruce can turn him into a male power fantasy#but according to this person that's technically all fanon because the authors are fans of Batman who write him how they want#<- a needlessly complicated way of saying it doesn’t matter that almost every writer has written Batman as a cop symbol#because they don’t agree with those authors’ visions it’s just bad characterization#not consistency#anyway back to how any Jason fan who doesn't ascribe to your flawless interpretation of these iffy events is actually missing the point#mhm okay ignored winick showing Jason desperately saving children like three times in lost days#and other authors later wrote him being good with kids too#oh but even if he had the same trait in post crisis and n52 these characterizations are actually irreconcilable because they said so#kelseethe#for someone who seemingly cares so much about numbers and patterns#they tend to skip a lot of important panels in their ‘analyses’#like the panels in batman 650 where Jason mentioned the thousands joker killed and the friends he's crippled#and the lost days panels of him being upset about joker going on to hurt more families and fathers and sons#all this to claim Jason’s ultimatum in utrh was entirely self-centered#I guess it just goes to show how much evidence you have to ignore/disregard to come to the conclusion that Jason is a bad person#but yeah your vision is the be all & end all and anyone who thinks otherwise isn’t ~normal~

next gen (2018) is the best movie ever for a lot of reasons but the biggest, most integral one that i've never seen anybody actually address before, is that it is fundamentally a story about being a very young child who is suffering so much emotional pain and the experience of that pain not being taken seriously by anyone around you. mai's anger issues and crushing loneliness are absolutely integral to any reading of the story's themes, and not only is her pain a driving force, but it is validated by the narrative. the story doesn't mock her for having "daddy issues," she's not just a whiny or dramatic little girl; she is ABSOLUTELY justified in feeling lonely and hopelessly angry, and the movie goes out of its way to show you things from HER perspective. and at the end, the "lesson" she had to learn wasn't that she was WRONG about how she viewed her mother and her situation - in fact, her MOM is the one who has to learn that she was mistreating her daughter and hurting her.
the movie also takes so much care to honestly and realistically show how that loneliness can manifest in the most destructive of ways - mai is ALLOWED to be angry, she is allowed to be rude and abrasive and destructive, and while it is portrayed as a problem and something that needs to be addressed, the narrative never BLAMES her for it - because she is a child reacting in a real, emotional, raw, human way to her trauma and pain.
what i'm trying to say is i have never seen a film before that takes a child's feelings of misery as something so valid. the narrative NEVER condescends to her character, it never comes across as patronizing. and the movie isn't about having to forgive the people who hurt you, but instead it's about the importance of not letting that pain stop you from making NEW memories and better relationships. it's so real and RAW and full of love and ultimately, it is about how even one person looking at you and saying "i see your pain, and i'm not going anywhere" and meaning it can be enough to save you.
#literally this movie is so fucking good. go watch it right now#my favorite film of all time. unbeatable in catharsis in validation in ENTERTAINMENT#and that's not even getting into the animation or soundtrack bc my GOD both of these things are BANGING#and the ANGST. ohhhh my god this movie will rip your fucking heart out#like. how do i actually describe it. this movie is about being a mentally ill child from the child's perspective#any other movie would have had mai need to learn the lesson that her parents were doing what they thought was right or some bullshit#but nope! next gen says your mom IS doing a bad job! and you deserve to be angry about it!! you are right to be angry about your#dad fucking off when you were 4!!! that DOES suck for you and it DOES suck that nobody fucking LISTENS#this is a kid screaming for someone; anyone to listen to her or care about her pain and then she meets 7723 and he DOES#AND ITS A MOVIE ABOUT HOW MENTAL ILLNESS CAN MAKE YOU PUSH PEOPLE AWAY AND SELF SABOTAGE#AND THE IMPORTANCE OF *LETTING* PEOPLE HELP YOU AND TRUSTING THEM TO HOLD YOUR HEART GENTLY.......#i restate. this movie is so fucking good. go watch it if you haven't i am not asking#mine#next gen#next gen netflix#netflix next gen#long post

Constantly thinking abour karen wheeler btw but in a way that makes everyone here super madsies
#my problem is that when ppl say they like their female characters problematic they mean#'i want them to have flaws that i can blame on the nearest male character' and tbh thatd so boring and also. pretty infantilizing?#tbh to the point where its like do you guys even get karens character or. anyways.#like So Many Thoughts#like shes either the narc emotionally abusive mother or a victimized angel 🥺🥺🥺 neither of which is true btw#im so pretentious i like to think that i get where karen fits in the fabric of st's themes#i think positioning her as a 'freak' kind of defeats that? bc karen to me always seemed like the opposite#shes attrative skinny formerly a cheerleader charismatic white and suburban. shes literally a white boomer named karen.#all of that is complicated by the fact that shes also a woman who was raised in the veryyy conservativ era of the 50s#shes very much someone who is smart but also follows the tides and only really rebels when its the popular counter culture to do#like her at the pool in s3 with all her other housewife friends#and its like so easy to get what ppl say about her mothering skills but it often gets pushed into very black and white discourse#like karen obviously cares about her kids but its a case of actions mattering more than words and performance#like karen will TELL mike that she wants him to talk to her and shell hug him when shes supposed to (performance) but when mike had symptoms#of ptsd? karen punishes him. but also ptsd was not super well known back then#but what im saying is that karen PERFORMS but is she actually a safe person to go to? i think thats what her arc is about#like thats why the mikekaren hug at the end of s4 was important bc not only does she hug him hut she also makes it clear she doesnt want to#lose him#its that reassurance after a traumatizing event from a parent that kids and teens need!#i think karen does what she thinks she is supposed to do but also i think shes the typical white boomer who lacks a lot of self awareness#in how she treats ppl#doesnt make her a bad person. honestly i think shes a good person#i think when all characters are humanized and flawed what separates a good person from a bad person in st#is whether they like to inflict pain (like brenner) or if theyre just a flawed human beings (good but nuanced)#girl whos been thinking abt karen all day <- me

yknow i think a lot of the really far-gone transfemme vs transmasc people who still play by the 6th grade milquetoast "trans women are targeted way more than trans men cause femininity is bad and masculinity is good In Our Society, so trans men get free acceptability passes" feminism forget that trans men/transmascs started life. as. little girls. we were mistaken, from birth, for baby girls. and we were raised by our parents to believe that we were little girls.
a lot of trans men and transmascs then grew up to be teenaged girls
a lot of trans men and transmascs were adult women too
and for a while we *believed* we were girls and women. some of us even WISHED we were girls and women (points at myself). and much more importantly, we were continually seen as girls and women. a lot of the time, we are STILL seen as girls and women, even with full fuckin beards and baritone voices. especially if we need to go to any kind of medical professional. this is what our free acceptability pass looks like?
its just so much more nuanced than these 'boys vs girls' people ever seem to care to think about. even binary trans folks dont have the same sense of cisgendered binary that cis people do. we literally cross from one fake end of the fake-binary to the other. thats where the trans in transgender comes from. i dont know how some other trans folks seem to forget that?? i don't know how, somewhere along the line, we forgot that trans men and transmascs also directly suffer under misogyny?
#my t#sorry for more gender based griping i saw smth on twitter that reminded me of this.#the bright spots of Little Girl euphoria i had in my childhood were rare and beautiful. i refuse to forget them.#my perception of myself i had as a child is important to me.#possibly in a different way to others because. yknow. i am plural.#and plural folks have a different brain and sense of understanding of themselves that singlets wont have. its just a neurological differenc#but my little girl self is an important part of my present day adult man self.#and looking at the adult trans men in my system who are still under my care today-#the little girls they were - however fucking briefly - are still important to me and to them too.#and i fully understand that a lot of other trans folks cannot think of themselves this way#but trans mens experiences of being mistaken for little girls are as important as trans womens experiences being mistaken for little boys#we are all trapped in the same systemic cycle of gender-based abusive conditioning.#really we just have to do away with assigning gender to baby bits completely. its weird.#trans men are either eternally confused women or just invisible#and crushed under the weight of maintaining a cis-man image.#i mean for fucks sake#my partner system and us have been talking about having a kid for ages#if i were to get pregnant i'd just have to accept the fact that i have to masquerade around as a woman for 9 months.#because there is NOTHING for pregnant transmascs.#nothing.#there aren't even a lot of gender neutral options for maternity clothing.#even the term 'maternity' denotes femininity and motherhood.#paternity clothing isn't a thing that exists for me for look forward to or even mildly worry about.#and i'm just talking about a *planned* pregnancy involving a trans man. what do yall think happens to transmascs with unwanted pregnancies.#what a privileged life i lead as a no-op no-hrt trans man. big cishet loves me because i am obviously exactly like a cis man now#just want people to stop infighting and being stupid tbh.#breaking: bro strider fictive gets really fuckin pressed about gender and systemic abuse again!

A lot of current adults who grew up in the online social atmosphere of sheltered tumblr ideas are slowly becoming what I like to call ‘proto-Boomers’ because they cannot fathom the idea that they are, in fact, getting older and not younger and that they are going to be held to different standards as adults that were completely different from when they were as minors. We are going to be expected to have a level of accountability for how we act towards EVERYONE, especially minors, who will one day have to take care of us when we’re old and can’t do it ourselves.
And maybe that’s just me but it’s because of my realization of having this toxic mindset (and actually going to counseling lol) well into my mid-twenties that I’m starting to notice it outside of just myself. As well as how it has negatively impacted activism for genuine social and political change. How it’s steered the once understandable idea of ‘I don’t want kids because I don’t want them (insert any reason)’ into ‘uwu KiDs ArE sO ToXiC aNd TEenS NoWaDaYs aRe So DumB and MeAn uwu ThEy dOn’T UndErStaNd aNytHinG LikE uS 90s KiDs uwu’.
The weird behavior of adults around my age and a little older acting like they’ve lived a hundred lives over and have the authority to call the shots on whether or not minors should be seen or heard when it’s convenient for them and then have the audacity to turn around, using the most out of date, fandom baby talk to defend some crappy (most likely white) mediocre artist or creator for their ‘uwu nostalgia’ while making it seem like they’re actually doing it for a political or social reason is like…hideous to me.
I’m over it 😂
#pbscore#terminally online Millenials and older gen z people irritate me to no end when they huff and puff about#minors daring to exist in public setting just like them#like bro…get over your damn self 😩 kids and teens have been getting less and less exposure to the outside world because of lack of funding#for childcare and educational/alternative programming#if you idiots ever cared about that then there would be more of y’all mobilizing to make space for minors to enjoy themselves among their#peers in a safe environment that’s also FREE and allows parents some peace of mind#just because you don’t want kids doesn’t mean kids aren’t important to our society as a whole

honkai part 2 has the chance to be either the best thing ever or the worst shit you've ever seen. nothing in between. so until we have more info, I'm excited but also SCARED
#new faces.. got me thinking#truthfully i dont want a new main cast but its bound to happen i just hope its not the apho kids#as much as i enjoy apho i just dont care about self inserts#and the other apho characters.. are okay at best#but main trio's stories feel far from over tbh because the final arc was very rushed so i hope new faces are charas like griseo and su#obviously with completely new charas too BUT as prominent side characters only pleaseee#or antagonists#cause most media i know that did a sequel with an entire new cast is just shit from a butt dkvlfndkg#i wouldnt mind if it is an apho continuation but not in the adam centered/narrated side mode. that can stay on its own#so like a little timeskip after the timeskip?#this definitely wont play out like i want but i can cope. kiana bronya mei are just way too important to me sorry#dont want them to suffer any more than they alr have but. i need them back NOW#well lets see how 1.5 ends first of all (fu hua we need u). ill let them cook#i should've put all this in the og post but i already wrote everything in the tags so idc#honkai impact 3rd#hi3

I think I’m going crazy because I got to thinking about how during the pandemic we literally had people teaching us how to wash our fucking hands (like celebrities doing TikTok videos washing their hands wtf) because apparently some people didn’t know how to fucking wash their hands and it got me remembering about how you’re literally taught how to wash your hands as a kid like even in elementary school and preschool. They would even show you videos like there would actually be children TV shows about taking care of yourself and they would have this silly little song about washing your hands and brushing your teeth and I asked the venerable Three Year Old whether they had TV shows that taught them to brush their teeth and wash their hands and she said she didn’t know… which is like ok fair enough because you are literally only three years of age and you don’t really have object permanence or anything (not true btw) but I genuinely cannot remember if they teach stuff like this in Bluey or whatever the fuck. Do they teach this stuff in Spongebob I can’t remember. I’m going insane.
#holy shit THAT is a rant alright#HELP?! ARE THERE CHILDREN CARTOONS NOW ABOUT WASHING YOUR HANDS AND EATING VEGETABLES I NEED TO KNOW#as you can see we have VERY important and intellectual conversations on our way to school#i have mondays off for a while so it is My Job to accompany the Venerable Three Year Old to school in the morning and pick her up nowadays#she now wishes to be called Princess Sparkle Explosion which i am very happy about (pse for short)#bluey is the one show i know about that is the closest i can think of that teaches like family stuff and self care or whatever idk#i don’t really watch tv with the kid i don’t see her so much i’m not her parent idk#we mostly play with dinosaurs#personal

Lil reminder that self diagnosing can be a good way to help doctors focus on the symptoms that make your life difficult!
Reminder that a good percent of mental illnesses have symptoms that overlap! Did you know PTSD and ADHD have almost identical symptoms when it comes to being over or under stimulated??? Me neither! I thought I had ADHD for years but it turns out I just have complex trauma!!
Anxiety and autism also are two that have a lot of overlapping symptoms!
MPD or now known as DID is actually EXTREMELY rare and HAS to be developed either genetically or through a VERY INTENSE trauma at a young age. This often gets mistaken with Bipolar, please do research bc the treatment for these are VERY different and the meds do WILDLY different things.
This has been a PSA from a 25 yr old who grew up around psychologists and lots of therapy and has read too many books.
#i have a system!#mental health#ptsd#anxiety#autism#adhd#self diagnosis#psychology#DID isn't bad#but the treatment is intense#and ive seen a rise in kids being like without proper diagnosis and it's like...#no you dont sweetie you have something else#systems are complex and ppl lose time and memories and cannot control switches and its very taxing on the person#please please do intense research so you get the correct treatment#bc meds for DID and Schizophrenia and meds for Depression and Bipolar are VERY DIFFERENT#and being prescribed thr wrong meds can really fuck you up#your health is important#take care of yourselves#psa#tw mental illness#opinion piece

In today’s episode of Adults: We’re Basically Teenagers. One of the assistant coaches of the dance team asked the head coach if there’s still room for her as a coach with me moving over there. “Do we really need three coaches for Varsity if we’re downsizing?” All because I’m going to help chaperone a camp for the officers that is being hosted in the city I currently live in.
It’s fine now, but that was a very dramatic 45 minutes.
#my coaching adventures#the main problem stems from the fact that the head coach and i have been best friends for 20 years#like we're just family at this point there's no me without her and vice versa#but also the idea of me walking in and STEALING SOMONE'S JOB is laughable#the whole thing was hilarious to me and she's feeling better about it now which is what is important#but also i don't get paid and i'm not going to get paid so it's not like i'm going to jump into this fulltime#no way i love those kids but self care is not going to every practice when i don't get paid for it lmao#anyway we never have it together#there's never a point as an adult where you're like#my life is perfect and drama free#it will always feel like high school just with more independence lol

dear god... suddenly emo about Magdalena and Isaac 😢😢
#this is funny because i have so little of their relationship defined in comparison to Gioia and Benedictus#but 🥺🤌🏻 thinking about isaac losing his whole family and fighting like hell to get his sister back.. it's so 😭#but once he gets her back she's painfully quiet. always looking over her shoulder. and simmering with anger!#i think he struggles to reconcile the past version of her + her present self. and how to connect with her through all the muck 🤔#OH.... WAIT i figured it out! just like regular bennie and gioi (fun fact. i realized her name doesn't really shorten nicely just now lol)#i think they build that strong underlying connection because isaac invests attention and care into maggie's music. he shows up to all her#recitals ykwim!.. it's a little different from B+G because isaac isn't maggie's stand-in parent for their neglectful parents.#he functionally Is maggie's parent. but I think Maggie still takes away the same love from it as gioia‚ for different but similar reasons.#I think this is so important for her too because it is. Very Difficult for Maggie to make friends because she's so shaken up..#i feel like bennie would try to get her to go therapy but she'd either refuse on the basis of not trusting authority anymore? OR‚ just like#kat‚ they'd tell her her experiences weren't real... in any case‚ music is maggie's Only outlet. so isaac taking interest and supporting#her in that endeavor‚ when she has very little else‚ would mean a lot to her. i think this all adds a level of 😢 to isaac and vergil's#relationship too because. originally isaac just didn't like vergil due to the whole underground rebellion schtick. that's what got his and#maggie's parents killed. BUT since Magdalena literally had no friends once she came home‚ I think Isaac is really overjoyed when she and#vergil strike up a friendship‚ since this is before Vergil's realized his true nature- the order is a collaborative thing between the two#of them after all. so at first Isaac is glad that his sister finally has a friend. and‚ just like in their future‚ Vergil helps Magdalena#grow into herself and come out of her shell. so isaac likes Vergil in the beginning‚ is grateful for him! plus V's his bosses/sponsor's kid#so there's a nice little 😊 there too. BUT THEN magdalena starts helping vergil remember things - dante - and they start#creating the Order‚ and i think Isaac feels this Great Dread. because vergil is maggie's only friend. vergil saved her!#but the things magdalena gets up to with vergil will get them killed in the future. (and it does lol!)#i think this is where the great split happens between B+G and I+M‚ because Benedictus disappeared before he had to make any Tough Parenting#Choices with Gioia. he was functionally a parent to her‚ but she just saw him as her Super Cool Older Brother.#Isaac is magdalena's older brother but he's also her Guardian (derogatory) ykwim? so. i think when he puts his foot down and tries to#forbid Magdalena from doing anti-demon stuff‚ which evolves into her not being allowed to see Vergil‚ it causes a rift between them.#i'm not sure how severe i want the rift to be... 🙁 by the start of the game it can't be super deep because kat has to be familiar with#isaac 🤪 but then ig he doesn't need to know Magdalena knows her Because of the Order? kat could just be... a friend... 😳🤫#although this then begs the question of whether or not he even knows Magdalena was still involved with the Order all this time? because on#the surface Maggie's schedule really is just work work work. he doesn't have to know What her work is...#that also adds a ☹�� when Magdalena goesmissingdies and then comes back possessed by a demon because it's like groundhog day for him- again‚#he could do nothing to protect his sister from the demons BUT this time it was him raising and watching her‚ not their parents
