This is how it happened. I wanted to paint something... I was bored so... I did. And this happened.

I blame the amazing Thumbnail artists for this. His thumbnail is just too pretty.

Hero commission: Deku, are you aware that you're mother is in a mental hospital?

Izuku: *laughing* really? It worked? *Giggling still*

Hero commission: uh.. what?

Izuku: oh! I've been trying to make her go insane since I was 10! *More intense laughing*

Hero commission: ..that's, that's not good...

Izuku: I guess you could say me 'haunting' her really pushed her over the edge!

*very manic laughing*

Of course, he had no idea how reliable the advice in those books really was, and the librarian looked at him funny when he checked them out, but he was still pleased to have found them. If this whole thing worked out in the end he'd have to do something nice for Neolu.

Lo and behold, not only is Zorian a vicious punisher of slights but also a generous boon granter to those that help him. I swear he's the archetypal fairytale witch that rewards the protagonist for selfless behavior and punishes her selfish sister that tries to game the system for the same reward.

being sad about jack again listen up

so like, right, ive talked about this before but in bl3 there's an echo you can find in moxxi's heist that's jack calling his mom and wishing her a happy mother's day. she doesn't answer this call, at the end of the recording it's obvious it's a voicemail, and one that he has made several times over the years, especially considering how sad he sounds when he says bye

now, this already fucks with me but what makes me wonder is-

is she even alive?

i know that lots of out of game stuff isn't canon, stuff that voice actors say and do in QnA's and trailers and promotional stuff is kinda eh whatever, plus bl3 has a million other issues with continuity but in one of the QnA's "jack" did, he said he killed his mom

now of course this mean a lot of different things, like just something dameon threw in there as a funny ha ha, it could have been canon at one point but then was rectonned later, the bl3 writers forget/didn't know he said this, OR it is still canon that jack killed his mom and he just. . . .still sends her mothers day voicemails

Lizardstripe Continued: The Fading Echoes Scene

I'm not done, actually. I just finished talking about how Yellowfang's Secret villainizes Lizardstripe SOLELY on being a woman who didn't want children, with there being no direct evidence of physical abuse because of Sagewhisker forcing Yellowfang to stay away from them. Even Brokenkit says nothing about specific instances of being hurt or insulted, but mentions overhearing Lizardstripe talking to Amberleaf that she feels he is stealing milk from her other children.

But we do have ONE place where it's said that Lizardstripe bit Brokenkit; Omen of the Stars Book 2: Fading Echoes. A book released in 2010-- two years before Yellowfang's Secret.

Yellowfang's Secret was released in 2012 and gives us the FULL backstory, so it's safe to assume that any inconsistencies should be ruled in YS's favor... or at least make you question, "If this was so important, why did they choose to change it?"

The scene in Fading Echoes happens on page 292.

Jayfeather enters Yellowfang's memories, and sees this;

These are supposed to be Yellowfang's memories, with Jayfeather living through her paws and feeling her emotions.

But we see in Yellowfang's Secret that she never saw any biting or nipping. No one ever mentions it in Yellowfang's Secret, not Sagewhisker, not Brokenkit, no one. The ONLY thing that we see is that Lizardstripe did not want children and felt trapped in motherhood.

So,

How does Yellowfang have a memory of this, if there's no way she saw it?

In Yellowfang's Secret, why was it not shown? Why did Brokenkit cite Lizardstripe talking to Amberleaf for why he feels Lizardstripe doesn't like him (and thus will not stop his littermates from bullying him) over actually being bitten and starved?

Why did the writer believe that Lizardstripe being vaguely "ambitious," resenting her unplanned pregnancy, and having another child she didn't want forced on her would be evidence enough of abuse, to the point of not having to show real cruelty?

This covers all of Lizardstripe's canonical interactions with Brokenkit so far, except for the 2007 field guide which is just a beta version of the Yellowfang's Secret scene. For the 20 years this character has existed, there has been ONE scene that states she hurt him "as punishment for being born," retconned out of existence 2 years later.

I have not posted any of my analysis to reddit yet and I think I might just post it and ghost it. I've already spent too much time looking at other people's threads on there to feel any way good about interacting with folks.

I already went in an added the "I know you're going to bring this up let me save you the time" section which is exclusively touching on the frequent topics of:

"well what about the fingerprint nostrum and finger mimics? He is clearly just a crackpot"

And

"it's definitely some weird elaborate sacrifice to Metyr thing"
