Leshy for the ask game?

HELL YEAH I got requests for all four Scrybes let’s go.

Favorite thing about them: I absolutely love his character as a whole. He’s a villain (and remains that way for most—if not all—of the game) but he’s still so likable just because everyone can see his genuine passion for the game he’s created. Everything he did, everything he created, every puzzle box and squeaking floorboard and hidden secret was all for the player. Inscryption the game loves the player so much—it loves them enough to trawl through the blight it’s built upon just to have even the slightest chance of looking them in the eyes and Leshy is such a good representation of that theme.

Least favorite thing about them: Again not going to say anything related to torturing the other Scrybes (even if he thought that they would eventually come around and see that it was an honor). Instead I’ll say I wish he had a full 3D model. I know it’s because he’s too damn tall but all of the other Scrybes have one (including Grimora, who is nearly the same height and has to clip through the floor to fit in that scene) but I would love to actually know what his legs look like instead of speculating based on the unclear 2D sprite. Granted I’d probably draw him with hooves anyway because it’s fun but still I’d love if he had a full body that I could import into blender to just rotate around for fun.

Favorite line: I’m not going to pick any bits from the finale because every single one of those lines hit hard, instead I’ll pick this segment

brOTP: I already talked about Leshy and Kaycee on the Kaycee post and I’m going to try and not repeat myself too much here. So instead I’ll say I like the relationship Leshy has with his subordinates just because it’s so different from the other Scrybes’ interactions with their own underlings. Magnificus and P03’s underlings both revere their Scrybe above all else, Grimora’s all live under the same roof and are therefore likely pretty close with her, but Leshy? All of his woodsmen seem like they were just… people who lived in his forest who he decided to converse with. They’re loyal to him, sure—everyone but the Woodcarver (who isn’t one of his underlings) is 100% okay with him using their visage and controlling them for the boss fights—but in a very different way. Loyal in a way of “I live in the forest with you and the forest decided to extend a hand to me in return” rather than loyal in a “put me in the torture chamber, boss!” way. I don’t know it’s just like they’re casual friends with any reverence (or lack thereof, in the Woodcarver’s case) formed organically rather than vehemently feeling like they owe anything, intentionally or not.

OTP: Trying not to repeat myself too much so I WON’T put all four Scrybes as the world’s worst polycule here. I’m pretty sure everyone here already knows that’s my #1 favorite Inscryption ship (and probably the only one tbh because I’m not really into shipping). Instead I’ll talk about Leshy and the other three Scrybes individually (keeping it short because otherwise, like usual, we’d be here a while)

Leshy x Grimora: Classic life and death motif combo. You can’t really go wrong here. Plus, if you go by sheer quantity (and quality imo) in act 1, Insect cards are by far the most abundant, implying they may be Leshy’s favorites (plus the insect that crawls across the table that Leshy occasionally stops to observe). So making Grimora into an insect card seems to show a certain level of fondness—or respect, at very least. We already know from canon that a combined blood/bones system works very well, as do beast and death cards in act 2. Plus the mental image of Grimora bringing back animals that Leshy had gotten particularly attached to by lovingly carving their epitaphs and watching as the now-skeletal rat excitedly greets his friend again is cute.

Leshy x Magnificus: This one is a little bit funny to me just because they have no hybrid cards together and Leshy goes out of his way to gouge Magnificus’s eye out. So needless to say the divorce was messy. But in a pre-old_data sense, their dynamic would probably center around their mutual love of creation. Though their own preferences clash, they’re both huge fans of having a single unified aesthetic. They don’t want each other’s card systems near the other, but the storycrafting would be fantastic. Similarly, I don’t think a magic/blood campaign would work very well without a ton of shoehorning (it would have to be something similar to the red hart wherein the # of sacrifices made that turn power up a ruby mox card) but the visuals would be nice.

Leshy x P03: This one is equally funny to me because they’re opposites in every way possible and yet they really have a lot more in common than either of them would appreciate in canon proper. I’m personally a fan of the “overgrown technology” type aesthetic (see: co-op) so from that level I can appreciate it, but also the level of hilarity that these two would bring is incredible. Learning about the semi-canonical divorce between the robot and the forest deity was a punch in the face, but the semi-canonical marriage that it implies? The two of them going in dates in either the middle of the woods (wherein P03 complains the whole time until it spots a bird mimicking the whirring of its fans) or at the factory (wherein Leshy spends the whole time asking if they can go down to the shore because he’d love to capture that thing he swore he saw poke its head out above the waves). It would be a disaster and yet the fact that they made it work speaks volumes. I’ve already talked about a blood-energy system with co-op so I’ll skip over that part but yeah I like these two.

So anyway the four of them together are a lethal combo needless to say. It doesn’t work and yet it does and then the moment it starts to work they realize they can play god and then start fistfighting each other about it. So that’s fun.

nOTP: Again, not a fan of Leshy and Kaycee in a romantic context.

Random headcanon: I didn’t get to show it in my last drawing of him (partially because it got covered up with fur) but he has tarsal spurs on the back of his leg like an insect would. What these are used for? Good question… Seeing as in insects they’re usually on the forelegs for digging or cleaning, they’re probably just vestigial on Leshy.

Unpopular opinion: Act 1 isn’t my favorite. It’s good, for sure, but I hate when people reduce Inscryption to just act 1 and then ignore the rest of the game. Maybe that’s just because I’ve been drawing art for this game and picking apart the lore for around a year now but the other acts deserve more of a spotlight too.

Song I associate with them: Can I put Lord Huron’s entire Strange Trails album here? I won’t, I’ll narrow it down to Meet Me in the Woods (though you should listen to the whole album if you want a whole album of Leshy songs. Just saying). Other than that, Dear Dictator by Saint Motel and Solar Waltz by Cosmo Sheldrake are both pretty good options.

As a bonus, I’ll put Time in a Bottle by Jim Croce—the song he references in the Finale as he plays his last game.

Favorite picture of them: It only appears for a couple of seconds but I really like his “Deathcard”

Can I ask about your OCs? Bc I really would like to hear more about the fenbela polycule and Catherine Hawke for reasons. What kind of scams do they pull? What's marrying Fenris for tax purposes like?

Yes you can!!! I’m sorry this post ended up so long so i’m putting it below the cut

Weirdly enough the fenbela polycule unfortunately probably does not exist in my worldstate where catherine actually is hawke for timeline reasons (2 me fenbela is about them starting off as emotionally congested fwbs and fenris simply wouldn’t have casual sex with the woman his best friend has been in love with for 2+ years) but i am thinking about rearranging things to make it happen 🤔

But cat is repurposed in my canon worldstate as catherine amell, hawke’s second or third cousin whose family is too many iterations of youngest child of a youngest child to get in on much of the generational wealth, and instead were traders in ferelden killed by darkspawn during the blight. This left cat orphaned in denerim, where she started working with k’s gang (from the gnawned noble quests in dao) and, as soon as she got a whiff of some of what enough gold can buy you, became to be determined to do everything she could do to be rich as fuck. While that started out as shanking some guys as a low level denerim goon, eventually she built up enough resources of her own to follow her true calling: becoming the anna delvey of southern thedas.

Basically, her go-to is to either come to rich people with some kind of investment opportunity before taking the money and running, or to integrate herself into some city’s nobility’s social circle until she has enough access that her guys can come in and rob the place while she has them distracted. She ends up building up a crew of her own and gets her fingers in various black market schemes across the continent.

Eventually she ends up hearing about some kind of insanely wealthy antivan merchant prince who planning to take an exclusive group of nobles and other rich merchants out on a heavily guarded boat to unveil some kind of extremely valuable macguffin – i mean artifact – so obviously she immediately schemes her way on board, where she meets… isabela, who, pirate that she is, is trying to rob the same guy. The two quickly realize that they’re in each other’s way, and after, an evening of foiling each other’s schemes, decide they’re going to work together and split the profits later.

Once they’ve secured the prize and are safely ashore, they end up sleeping together, and, after they both catch each other trying to steal back the macguffin for themselves and sneak out on the other, decide they should probably work together again for real. They’re a good team!

Basically they carry on like this for a while and do end up working together quite a bit and meeting up and off. MEANWHILE we’re like a year or two out from the end of DA2 and isabela and fenris have been in aforementioned emotionally congested fwb situation since Act 3. While they had some plausible deniability that this was purely casual and feelings were in no way involved while they were both living in the same city, at this point both of them are in completely separate countries and are still going out of their way to meet up semi-regularly for “booty calls”. It’s embarrassing and not fooling anyone but themselves!

This post is already so long so i wont get into too many details but basically eventually catherine tells bela she wants this to be more than casual hookups, bela realizes she kind of wants that (which scares her) and also because (as she seems to in the game) she associates commitment with monogamy, she realizes that despite definitely no feelings being involved whatsoever!! she feels some type of way about having to end things with fenris. Her and fenris both kind of realize at this point that they were actually in love with each other the whole time but also figure that by now that ship has probably sailed. Which catherine (who has met fenris quite a few times at this point and gets along surprisingly well with him!) picks up on and is like “you know i wouldnt mind if you were in a relationship with fenris too”

after some begruding and much needed communication about their relationship, isabela goes fantasy facebook official with both of them… until two months later when she has another crisis about commitment and runs out on her girlfriend and her boyfriend. Which should be it, except, well, catherine has heard about fenris’ whole thing fucking up magisters in tevinter, and she actually has some contacts in tevinter who could probably help him out, and you know, she’s kind of been thinking about expanding into tevinter lately.. which is how the two of them end up working together on a job liberating slaves from a magister (and gold from his bank account).

Isabela comes back a la act 3 of the belamance ready for commitment for realsies this time! only to find that her exes(?) are now not only working together but have somehow become like, best friends. Anyway, things continue to be messy and complicated from there because.. it’s them, but generally it does work out well for them! The marriage is honestly not a big of a deal – none of them ever really imagined they would get married anyway and so when catherine realizes it would probably be financially advantageous to be married, (and i’m sorry because i AM headcanoning thedas to be more homophobic than it canonically is bc i don’t think gay marriage is really legal there. I think sera and the inquisitor could do it bc divine victoria was Right There. but that’s why isabela isn’t an option), fenris seems like the logical person to put down

#thank you for asking!! love to talk about my guys..#catherine hawke #catherine amell

diving into lord of chaos! the 3 terms i know from this book going in are The Box, dumai’s wells, and asha’man kill. what do they mean? i don’t know, but i know they’re iconic (and traumatic) and i will be keeping an eye out for them

the similar names are starting to get out of hand. took me a solid paragraph to remember demandred was a forsaken and not some cairhienin (since a lot of cairhienin names have the -dred ending). and every time i see “mazrim taim” i feel like mat and tam al’thor are making up fake names to get free trials of stuff

our first glimpse of shayol ghul and the dark one! very exciting. does the dark one have a corporeal form or is he just like a spirit entity? a deity of sorts? how will rand be able to battle and defeat him? (all rhetorical questions ofc)

i wonder if shayol ghul will exist at all in the show since they’ve changed the dark one’s prison to the eye of the world. now that i’m thinking about it i think that was a great decision bc a) shayol ghul feels like a lotr knockoff whereas the eye and the blight are more distinct and memorable b) what even is the point of the eye in the books? does it ever come up again after the first one? why did moiraine even need to take the kids there in the first place (i’m sure this was explained at the time but i completely forget)? why is there just a pool of untainted saidin chilling there? how is that possible? how can saidin be matter, i thought it was just some intangible force? why doesn’t rand think about going back to the eye to try and use this untainted saidin? all this to say that the show’s version of “the eye is the dark one’s prison and moiraine has to take the kids there to defeat him” is much more clear-cut. and c) older hardened rand going to the eye to battle the dark one in the series finale the same way little baby rand did in the s1 finale will be a beautiful full circle moment and WILL make me cry my eyes out

is it just me or is the aes sedai not letting elayne go to caemlyn very uhhhhh stupid? i understand they want her to finish her training but, political powerhouses as they supposedly are, you would think they’d realize that a huge country being in turmoil because they have no ruler MIGHT cause problems. “if rand has you and caemlyn he has andor” so you think the solution is to keep elayne away and let him have caemlyn all to himself? how is that not worse?

if elayne can make ter’angreal now, i think she should make a matching set of Fuck Hut-esque ter’angreals for all members of the polycule so that they can long-distance date more effectively

"min’s laugh had a huskiness to it; elayne supposed many men would find that attractive. and she was pretty, in a mischievous sort of way.” i swear to god elayne is the most bisexual straight character i’ve ever encountered. i can’t wait for the show to make bi elayne canon

“if [rand] learns about the viewing he might decide it isn’t what we want, only the pattern, or his being ta’veren. he could decide to be noble and save us by not letting either of us near him” elayne says, and she is bang on, but min replies “more likely, if he realizes we’ll both come running when he crooks a finger, he’ll crook it. he won’t be able to help himself.” doing rand a huge disservice and proving that elayne knows him WAY better than she does

“you and i will divide him up like a pie. maybe we’ll let the third have a bit of crust when she shows up.” ugh. min you are losing my esteem left right and center. i absolutely loved her the first 4 books, things took an abrupt nosedive in book 5, and book 6 is not off to a promising start. some of you guys have assured me that min/rand will get much better once they actually have screentime together (though others have said that it remained their least fav rand ship throughout), which i hope is the case bc at the current moment there’s a long ways to go before i will ship it. at this point i’m advocating for mat straight up taking her spot in the polycule rather than being added as a fifth jkdjfg

very fitting that the next scene opens with faile saying “a man is not a horse or a field, neither of you can own him” i do feel like she ought to take her own advice there lmfao but i’m glad to see her again!!! despite how much the tsr relationship drama pissed me off, i actually really love faile? i think that’s an unpopular opinion, but I Just Think She’s Neat

so it seems it’s perrin’s turn to experience the homoerotic ta’veren pull! very interesting how faile thinks about “sharing” perrin with rand with similar language as elayne and min do about sharing rand romantically with each other. if you wanna be my lover you gotta get with my fellow ta’veren to whom fate has inexorably linked me

tangent but i’m realizing that mat’s struggle with his fate-pull to rand is so fucking SIMILAR to min’s and aviendha’s. good GOD just put him in the polycule!

“why did the dragon reborn need perrin now, so strongly that perrin could feel it across however many hundred leagues lay between them?” fellas is it gay to need your buddy so strongly that he can feel it from hundreds of leagues away

i know we hate gawyn, but him thinking about swearing an oath to give his life for elayne’s when he was “barely tall enough to peer into elayne’s cradle” 🥺🥺 that got to me okay? and i can’t blame him for believing the rumors that rand killed morgase and elayne and now wanting to kill rand for it. “gawyn had chosen to stay because his mother had always supported the tower, because his sister wanted to be aes sedai” that was an aha! moment for me where i felt that i understood gawyn’s decision in the coup much better - he has no reason to disbelieve the charges against siuan (esp since he was already suspicious of her for concealing elayne’s whereabouts) and he truly thought that supporting elaida (who was his mother’s advisor for most of his life) meant supporting the tower, and therefore his mom and sister. i still have no strong opinion about gawyn either way, time will tell whether i join the ranks of gawyn haters or end up taking him under my wing as a problematic fav

sevanna mentions a small cube that a wetlander gave to her with instructions of what to do with it once she had rand. mesaana mentions something called a “stasis box.” could one or both of these things be THE box????

i am 65% sure osan’gar is ishamael brought back to life (we know he’s a male forsaken but not rahvin, and i don’t think any of the other dead ones are important enough to make a comeback), but i wonder who aran’gar could be

“stripped to the waist...sweat slicked his hair to his skull, rolled down his chest...figures like that on the white banner overhead twined around his forearms, glittering metallically red-and-gold” god bless, we continue our tradition of a sexy description of rand to kick off the book (post-prologue). i vividly remember tfoh opening with a sexy description of him lounging by a window in rhuidean, and i believe tgh began with him shirtlessly sparring with lan

“sometimes he was so sick of himself that he really was ready to die” 😭😭😭😭😭

“rand said nothing; mat’s secrets were his own” protective boyfriend! “he supposed mat had to have read a book sometime, somewhere, but mat did not have much interest in books” exasperated boyfriend!

bashere is so chill i love him. how he has a daughter who is Like That i have no idea. i hope we get to see him and faile interact sometime.

“he would welcome more men who could channel walking the earth unmolested. finally he would stop being a freak.” 😭😭😭😭 man that just shattered my heart. sometimes it really hits that rand is only a deeply lonely 20-year-old trying his best. also, rand’s channeling abilities as metaphor for queerness example #372456

“i’m going to build something, leave something behind. whatever happens, i will do that! i’ll defeat the dark one. and cleanse saidin, so men don’t have to fear going mad, and the world doesn’t have to fear men channeling” just copy in all my commentary from the previous bullet point, crying emojis included

lots of mentions of rand’s luck, and taim even says he has the dark one’s own luck. which as we know is a mat thing! leave me to grasp at what cauthor straws i can, ok? now that i mention it, i’m 90% sure that the very first instance of “time to toss the dice” was actually rand, when he was trying to take them all thru the portal stone in tgh

lews therin when rand yells at him to shut up: surprised pikachu.jpg. interesting that he may be an actual conscious (?) voice that rand can talk to, rather than just memories etc. but does this mean that lews therin will never truly get to rest in peace, if some part of him is still alive thru rand? that’s so sad :(

i feel that entrusting all these male channelers to the tutelage of some powerful and dangerous guy who just showed up who rand is getting bad vibes from right off the bat may not be the smartest idea, but poor rand is so overworked, he really doesn’t have many other options

“to the maidens, rand was all those children come back, the first child of a maiden ever to be known to everyone”

okay okay okay i’m fine moving on

“he had to stay away from [aviendha]. he carried death with him like a contagious disease; he was like a target, and people died near him” see? elayne was bang on

rand absolutely owning the maidens by telling a joke so bad even i can’t work out the punchline. i love him.

“tolmeran’s doubts centered on mat. despite what he had heard from cairhienin of mat’s skill in battle, tolmeran thought it flattery from fools for a country man who happened to be a friend of the dragon reborn” i just KNOW there are rumors that mat only got his job because he’s sleeping with rand, i just know it

“they were honest objections, and semaradrid’s even had validity” so rand thinks that tolmeran’s objections about mat are NOT valid. supportive boyfriend!

the maidens giving rand advice for how to get aviendha’s attention i’m crying they are his big sisters and moms!!! i love them!!!!

had to post this passage in full bc i’m hollering. i rest my case about there being rumors that mat is sleeping with rand. he is so anxious about anyone finding out rand teleported to his room for a pre-dawn bootycall (which, come on, rand, you can’t just teleport directly into someone’s room in the middle of the night, mat would’ve been well within his rights to stab you)

“how do you know you’re in love with a woman, mat?” “how in the pit of doom should i know?” mat has no time for your heteronormative assumptions rand

i feel like rand didn’t even need mat’s input on anything, he just came bc he wanted to talk to him 🥺 usually rand keeps his problems close to his chest, but he’s venting pretty freely to mat rn

rand saying “no man should have another man’s voice in his head” about his own problems and mat thinking he’s talking about HIS problems AAAAAAHHHH JUST FUCKIN TALK TO EACH OTHER YOU IDIOTS!!! YOU HAVE (SOME OF) THE SAME PROBLEMS!!! GIVE EACH OTHER THERAPY!!!!! GODDAMMIT

mat has adopted a child!! he really went “i’ve only had olver for a second and a half but if anything happens to him i’ll kill everyone in this town and then myself.” he is such a dad!!!! him kneeling down to talk to olver instead of talking about him over his head to another adult because he used to hate when adults did that to him 🥺🥺🥺 this will be all the more touching in the show with Dad Mat already established by his devotion to his sisters

i am so sooooo curious about the lands beyond the aiel waste and wonder if we’ll ever see more of them

#wot #wot book spoilers #oh i forget whereabouts this happened but i cracked up when rand was like 'uh oh i lost asmodean. oh well!'#poor asmodean really did get the most unceremonious offing

Hello im returning to also submit stalker/obsession and also apologize for accidentally unfollowing when i tried to press 'ask' asdjf

I wasn't paying attention you could have gotten away with it I would not have noticed if you hadn't said anything. Ya told on yaself.

Also thanks for sticking around you had an easy out and you chose to come back anyway.

Ships that fit the Trope

Top of the list Kendo Rappa/Taishiro Toyomitsu My Hero Academia Rappa is a simp stalker nasty freak and I love him so much I am inviting him into the polycule

Toga/Ochaco also from MHA are just as good,less nasty freak and more cute girls

AFO/Yoichi is my favorite gender of Obsession where it's topped with a horrid brother complex long after said brother is dead

Same vein Belos/Caleb which could also bleed into Belos/Hunter

I don't know if "Stalker" is quiet right but Hugo/Kipo from Age of the Wonderbeasts are very good Obsesses/obsession

Spamton/Kris is good long distance stalking/obsession I love that for them. More nasty freak content from Spamton G. Spamton

Reid and Leigh from MiddleGame aren't so much Stalker/Obsession so much Obsessed/Controlled indifference.

Nagito/Hajime is always funny to me as Stalker/Obsession, 100% because Nagito is just so pathetic kitten of a character. Rappa amount of nasty freak but a bottom.

The Scrybe polycule from Inscryption is this but divorced. Except P03, it's normal and that's why it left the polycule

Flug/Black Hat/Demencia from Villanous are also a good toxic obsession polycule and Dem is actually a stalker so here's at least one that fits the bill

I wrote a fic on this but Viktor Humphries has a complete simulation of Bea's land in Slime Rancher and I just think that's some stalker shit right there and should be addressed.

General Opinion

I think I've done a great job of showing my whole ass when it comes to this trope. My favorite version of it is Nasty Freak and Too Tired to Deal With This Shit. I think it's hysterical, and problematic shipping is at least 80% comedy factor for me. It can be fucked but it also has to be funny.

I do really love Obsesser/Obsession, I love to write for it in soft ways for X Readers, because I love Obsession as the extreme of love in general. I have a lot of trouble with genuine Stalking tho, I guess I just want them to be together so stalking feel unnecessary?? I dunno.

Any ships that aren’t canon it But I’d read w/ the trope

I once again don't have any but here's a list of characters I think would be fun instead if they had another half to ship them with (or to read X Readers of 👀)

Luca Blight - Suikoden 2

Taiyo Mitsuboshi - Happy Sugar Life

Shirou Ogami - BNA

The Core - Amphibia

Kyubey - Madoka Magica

Gaster - UTDR

Spade King - Deltarune

Shirokuma - Danganronpa (again. don't judge me)

Kazuichi Souda - Danganronpa

Maximilien - Overwatch

Liontari - Children of the Whales

CQ Cumber - Splatoon 2 (what if you were stalked by a jellybean)

#Ship List #Thankyou for asking #Don't ask why this took me all day I was playing Splat3 very obsessively #And dealing with a Guy my dad invited into the House (stressed by proximity to strangers)#A ship can be problimatic but it should also be stupid and funny #Especally when one of them is a stalker #I don't think most of my age gap ships are based in humor #but almost ALL of my basic Stalker ones are #Because if it's just basic obsession I typically just go 'Yup they're dating' and skip the how #So for it to be Stalker/Obsession there has to be a reason they're not dating #And so 90% of the time it's because Stalker is a nasty freak and Obsession just does not have the spoons to deal with that rn #I think that's incredibly funny #Thanks for the asks Kewpie you're the only ones I got.....#I never got to talk about age gaps or incest or any of the basic shit..... sad.#I'm finally willing to talk about my problematic tropes and everyone ignores me. Rude.

It's really fun to send you ship considerations your responses are sooooooo good

So CONSIDER

Poly pd/vestal/anti

(I have a ship of this on my estate and they're fan favorites (though the fans are just my pals) I love them so much they're my GIRLS)

OKAY OKAY IM SEEING IT....

PD and anti would bond over their morally questionable experiments and rituals of course. i think they'd take a genuine interest in the other's domain of learning and end up discovering that their knowledge overlaps more than they thought. im sure the intersection between science and magic would fascinate both of them. blight gfs whose love language is rigorous debate <3

adding the vestal into this mix is VERY interesting, i like it! if anyone deserves two girlfriends it's her. i could see her being the most emotionally intelligent out of the three, reminding her gfs to do things like Eat and Sleep, and getting lots of affection from these normally distant and cold women in return. it's very sweet to think about :)

i hope your little polycule stays safe in your run, anon, thanks for sharing!

"I don't think they'd open their relationship" LITERALLY and even like, forgetting that IF we go with n52 continuity which is what most people adding 3rds seem to do... wouldnt johnzee be like. traumatized as hell. like didnt the guy try to send them to hell. or was it just john in which case yeah i get it. ( aslo on this topic i once read a fic like that they called john "a man with a heart of gold / the most caring man" or something along those lines and i had to physically stop myself from laughing my ass off )

Nick Necro was a disaster of a character bc they didn’t even commit to the idea of them being in a polycule till the final hour-originally it was that John stuck around and just. Stole Zee from him. And yeah! He betrayed them multiple times! (If I have to think about Forever Evil: Blight I’ll vomit)

I love the idea of polyamorous characters in DC and some dynamics really work for that, but that’s certainly not John. He’s kinky and likes to experiment but he’s also traumatized up the ass and has a really hard time letting people in and ruins most committed relationships bc of his penchant for self sabotage. He doesn’t really like people that much, he’s not going to be running around asking Dick Grayson to have a threesome with him and Zee. Yuck. And he certainly does not have a caring heart of gold.

And Zee’s sexuality hasn’t been explored in depth, and 75% of the time, she’s just single. She likes her independence. I couldn’t say whether she’d be open to having a polyamorous relationship outside of dumb n52 canon bc DC doesn’t even know how to give her (1) boyfriend.

To me it just boils down to shipping culture sacrificing established character traits for nonexistent dynamics. I can’t really gripe about a core tenant of fandom in general, but johnzee being the default throuple for everybody’s faves just reduces their own connection to each other. Whether they’re not speaking or actually dating, john and Zee’s relationship is unlike any other in DC canon. And shoving a bat in there deeply bothers me.

For the fandom ask meme how about Toriko ?

the first character i ever fell in love with:

Zebra! I saw his huge awful grin in J-Stars Victory VS and was filled with a burning desire to know more.

a character that i used to love/like, but now do not:

Can’t think of anyone... my taste is impeccable and I have no regrets.

a ship that i used to love/like, but now do not:

Impeccable! No regrets!

my ultimate favorite character™:

Sunny, my beloved awful boy. It’s about the dichotomy between the aesthetic of beauty and being an absolute freak.

prettiest character:

Melk II but only as an edgy prettyboy.

my most hated character:

Zonge. Every panel with him in it is a blight. He’s not even funny. In my idealized version of Toriko he is simply not there.

Ume is also not in my ideal version of Toriko but I don’t hate him. He makes me feel nothing, in fact.

my OTP:

Komatsu/Kings/Brunch. Maybe throw Teppei into the polycule.

my NOTP:

ANY of the Kings with ANY of the other kings which SUCKS because that’s most of the content for Sunny or Coco.

I also... really just can’t get into Toriko/Rin. I don’t really want to get into it, honestly, the premise alone I just don’t like.

favorite episode:

Probably episode 3. One of the few arcs that fits in a single episode, and its solid with uncharacteristically good animation for the series.

saddest death:

I can’t think of that many deaths... I suppose Tommyrod and Grinpatch’s pissed me the hell off, if that counts.

favorite season:

I love the Regal Mammoth arc, just because of how much it develops the characters and world... very good pacing.

least favorite season:

Shokurin Temple arc. Literally cannot bear to watch it.

character that everyone else in the fandom loves, but i hate:

Egh, I really can’t find much to like about Rin... almost all of her writing just pertains to her being in love with Toriko which is just... not a lot to go on, especially when I already don’t like the idea of them being together. I feel like getting to a version of Rin that I like would require... making a 90% new character.

The inverse (character that most people dislike but I like) is Tina. Honestly, she may be an anime-only character but I’d give my arm to replace some of the canon characters with her. I wish she could have effected the plot more.

my ‘you’re piece of trash, but you’re still a fave’ fave:

Tommyrod and Bogie Woods... I have a disease called caring about the Bishokukai executives.

my ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave:

Teppei...

my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship:

Sunny/Tommyrod and Toriko/Livebearer. Sadly the only content that exists for these is the content in my own mind.

my ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship:

I can’t think of anything I only “lowkey” ship so I’ve decided I’m going to will Melk II/Nono into existence.
