the problem with jason’s writing post resurrection is that like. you spend all this time while he was gone building up these batfam characters and their views and morals and way of interacting with each other and their world. and then you bring back this one character who’s been dead for however long, but an insanely long period of however long, and you’ve made it so his worldview has become drastically different than what he was being taught. then you dump the antagonist route completely and start trying to figure out how to bring him back into the fold.
but once again, you’ve spent around 15yrs expanding these characters separately from jason todd. so what do you do? you mold and reform what jason is meant to be post resurrection until he fits into those standards. its what makes sense to do. how can you justify the batfam characters doing an almost complete 180. maybe a 90. on their views purely because of one character? purely because of jason todd when nothing has set ever been able to set that change in motion beforehand? so now jason has to be the one to change. except the change completely contradicts all the beliefs he’s formed in his post resurrection plot-line.
and now jason todd as a character becomes bland. he becomes a victim to bad writing and character assassinations. he’s wishy washy. nobody knows what to do with him so his character and the characters he interacts with only continue to suffer as a result. everybody begins to stop taking him and his stances seriously. all because you’ll never remove him from the sources that led to the origin of jason todd.
a batfam character away from batfam? well now why would the writers ever think to do that!
#jason todd#dcu#red hood#dc#dc meta#it’s aggravating like#you bring back and hes put into this role— into being a foil and bringing stellar contradictions to the norm— and then u realize that would#Be too much of an upset to the world u’ve already built and the status quo u’ve already held#So u toss him in the gutter and keep cutting him up to fit into that norm#And as a result his character suffers his writing sucks and absolutely zero positive changes in his relationships have occured#LET THE LITTLE BIRDY FLY AWAY FROM ITS NEST#already jason has trouble finding writers that like him#and now u want those writers to develop batfam characters in a way where they have to actually acknowledge some of jasons points?#its like telling them to shoot a dog dead#except that dog was robin jason and they actually gladly did it#and also all of this is a part of the reason why fanon reconciliations are handled the way that they are#both the writers and the fandom just dont know how to write development on the side of batfam minus jason#Its never been done before!! Not when it comes to THE rule and THE percieved legacy of jason todd the dead robin#how would they change? how would u write it#THEY DONT KNOW HOW#its literally never been seen before#How do u resist the system ur boxed in 😭😭😭

every time a linguistics essayist on youtube says something along the lines of "language is arbitrary" i can't help but chant a good ol "amen brother". without fail
#saussure is my prophet#linguistics#going out of the realm of pure linguistics but#i could argue that since language is the only way we can describe and percieve the world. everything is arbitrary brother#drinkin to that yeehaw#rambling

i have such a peculiar relationship with my femininity idek if i can call myself trans
#having your womanhood stripped from you#sunsequentialy hating yourself and the way the world percieves you for years#and then having forcibly reclaim femininity for yourself#certainly does something to your brain#i love being intersex ^_^

I just realised the reason why it's so hard for me to figure out how to write the bad boys hogwarts au is because Harry Potter has like the shittest world building. Like I love Harry Potter but holy crap the amount of problems there are in it's entirety
#not counting fantastic beasts i think fantastic beasts and where to find them does a fabulous job at world building#in harry potter you barely know anything about the world you don't know anything regarding the magic#and if you're confused about where purebloods live then that makes sense because there's a clear split between the muggle world and#the wizarding world but like where the hell is that because the muggle world is our world WHERE IS THE WIZARDING WORLD#LIKE THE LOVEGOODS AND THE WEASLEYS LIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE WHERE TF ARE THEY#Snape was a wonderful character but he wasn't written very well because he's always been percieved to dislike Harry#like absolutely 0 implication that he cares for Harry whatsoever but suddenly in the last movie we find out Snape actually cares a lot#i get he's the shapeshifter character archetype but oh my god at least give subtle hints about it#like Jax from TADC is a jackass but he has his own ways of keeping people safe which shows like YEAH HE'S NOT 100% JACKASS#and also the characters appearing out of nowhere like they weren't around at all previously but suddenly they just exist#i love this show but i also passionately hate how badly done it is#oh yeah not to mention the sheer amount of plot holes in the story#from grian <3

Two ideas for what Hollis' once-mentioned husband looks like... I'm calling him Rupert
#psychonauts#hollis forsythe#psychonauts oc#my art#he's a formerly well-known artist who's power of clairvoyance#was particularly sensitive and unmanaged#causing him to know how everyone around him percieved him; giving him an unbearable imposter syndrome#that caused him to destroy his last exhibition before it was unveiled#with psi-blast#as he also destroyed some art that was not his own he self isolated afterwards and the psychonauts took him in#before authorities could (in an anti-psychic society)#through years of therapy he has begun making art that is much more personal to him and that he feels happy making without a constant#feeling of being perceived (for the most part) and ran into#hollis at some point along the way; instantly falling for her and embarrassing himself trying to impress her#thankfully she found it cute n the rest is history.#that is the story rn anyway#idk which design to go with yet tbh before this there was a page of potential hollis failguys#his brain world nowadays has a lot of shattered mirror imagery#rupert forsythe

people who get up in arms about pokemon eating each other or being eaten by humans are probably gonna have a field day with castor. if i decide to implement this properly in diamond storm
#uhhhj basically the diets are very different in each world. castors favorite food growing up was pachirisu#he has hunted them as a wild pokemon he has blood on his hands. but like. also dudes gotta eat#like they have regular animals in both worlds but pokemon hunting each other was common and just circle of life stuff#and thats due in part to most pokemon not being able to understand each other. like they understand humans and they can learn to understand#one another- and in teams they tend to learn- and some pokemon do stick to just animals bc of that capability#but its not seen as horrible and disgusting#meanwhile in pmd it absolutely is seen that way bc all pokemon understand each other inherently. theyd understand humans too if they were ar#around#and some raise livestock and all pokemon stick to animals#the reason im hesitating though is well….. yknow. worried about people being assholes about it#like ‘’UGH you obviously only included that to be edgy!!’’ when like nah i wanna show off the difference between these worlds#the scene im considering is castor experiencing intense culture shock when he realizes he can suddenly understand all other pokemon with no#no effort#and having to adjust his diet with the new moral implications thrust onto him#making him wonder about whether or not he can belong here if hes done something they percieve as immoral#echoed voice#but also its not something i imagine has longterm influence… idk

minato is literally fucking jesus why cant people be nicer to him I'm going to throw a car into oncoming traffic
#compendiumnotebook#it's forever annoying that people boil him down to 'annoying little shit emo boy omg hes so mean loll" LIKE#no shit but you're missing the entire point of his character is that he's infinitely kind#INFINITELY#he didnt just do what he did for sees he did what he did for everyone#because he loves everyone so deeply#and even though he was treated poorly by the world and by those around him#INCLUDING sees#he still performed it#sees only became friends at the end and thats so important#sees were not friends in the same way as actual friends were. they were coworkers. they were peers at most.#and minato#who is constantly expierencing chronic and burning pain#who is always tired and sick#tries so hard#but hes snappy and mean and percieved that way because he goes through a million different hoops that people dont know about#he works 15x as hard and is misunderstood#he lived a misunderstood boy and yknow what#that's still true for when he's dead#misunderstood in life and death#AND THEN PEOPLE BOIL HIM DOWN TO EMO BOY IM GONNA COMMIT A FELONY

i think the reason im like This is bc the first thing i ever figured out how to draw was horses and i watched astrophysics documentaries on science and discovery channel religiously. there is so much bullshit in the world and isnt that beautiful
#to this day the only thing i feel like i can easily draw is horses#i try to draw other things and they end up looking like horses (like the vultures i was working on)#and all those physics docs were like the world is like there is so much abt the world we cannot percieve#and the universe could end at any moment in a billion different ways we could never see coming

My cousin : *is trans*
My dad: "she's making this up to annoy his mother, this is bad for her, she'll regret it."
My cousin: *gets top surgery*
My dad: "hey we should get him like, a t shirt. He's always so covered up but now he would probably appreciate it now"
Like my mind just made a backflip. Like wtf?
#like this guy is SUPER against cosmwtic surgery and percieves trans surgery the same way#he once cried in front of me because he was afraid i would destroy my body if I transitioned#but so far his reaction to the top surgery is like. pretty positive???? huh???#like we barely got to talk about it but im like. shocked#im afraid of bringing it up. i like this world where he isnt transphobic. what the fuck#trans

like people genuinely loved N.S. in many ways but the ones who made out best with those feelings were the ones who were willing to stop trying to love N.S. and actively realise those feelings into some end result. people get the most out of N.S. when they decide to just experience the person instead of trying to form a specific relationship that would give them something to "show" for the time spent together. but of course, and understandably, very few live like that by default or even know that's an option. and it isn't particularly palatable or an acceptable answer to the question "what are you guys to each other". N.S. couldn't have ever fit in or learned to live well with the great khans without chance because of it in a very funny way. not quite codependent but the antisocial 1 (unchecked chronic social anhedonia mistaken as just being a VERY chill guy) and antisocial 2 (doesn't want to pick up what youre throwing down) pairing up made them both more bearable and palatable to everyone else. since everyone lost interest or curiosity in trying to fill the role of "the one closest person to the lone wolf of the group" when they saw it becoming occupied. saving 85% of the camp from repeated disappointments from a lack of reciprocated interest and 100% of the generations most antisocial from having severe joker arcs as teenagers.
#oc: N.S.#the best way i can describe them is that chance loves N.S. deeply in a way that cant be expressed through conventional ways#and if N.S. was ever going to love anybody it would undoubtedly be chance without any question. if only a single person in the world#arcade and N.S. are so interesting because arcade will never understand and thats okay with N.S. because very few ever do#arcade knows where N.S. stands but still insists upon calling N.S. a friend and N.S. will continue to perform love and friendship#for arcade because thats how deep N.S.' loyalty and care for him goes. N.S. never lies about that and arcade accepts that now#and then the great khans as a whole are chance's friends that he loves and cares for deeply#so N.S. performs friendship and familial bonds because thats chance's life and N.S. doesnt want to ruin it#thus N.S. is upset when it does get ruined. distinctly different from why chance gets upset but still an acceptable percieved reaction to#everybody else... much to think about with the complexities of a loveless khan in a lovemaxxing khan generation#my ocs

ohhhhh my god girl i don't careeeee
#love my roommate but urghhhh. sorry they dont make enough fictional female characters that interest u but u dont need to justify it to me#write your mlm its literally fine. sorry but ur not gonna gain my respect or approval by defending why u write more mlm than wlw#i dont care if u have equal amounts of each or not LOL we just have different tastes thats all there is to it#and I KNOOOOOOWWWW she writes femslash too im not denying that !!!!!!#most of my fav media is lesbian centric bc I have a strong connection to my identity as a dyke. so i gravitate towards things that explore-#that + complex relationships to gender + its social enforcement etcetc. and its easier for me to get attached to characters that i can-#connect with bc we have shared experiences or the world percieves us in similar ways or we percieve the world in similar ways etc#and shes said she DOESNT feel particularly attached to her sexuality in that way. so ofc shes not going to be looking for the same things-#in media and thats OKAY!!#literally have nothing against her writing gay men i like some fictional mlm relationships myself!! and its cool that she enjoys it#i just find it disappointing that we dont have much in common taste-wise bc thatd be more fun to talk abt#but thats why i come on tumblr dot com.. to talk abt fictional women w dykes who understand them like i do amen#and im happy to listen to her talk abt things she likes and projects shes clearly enjoying working on like thats awesome love to hear it#but sometimes its like shes trying to persuade me abt smth but theres nothing to persuade. i dont knooooow#like ik shes not trying to get me into her interests she already has plenty of friends who are. but theres no approval to win from me???#i think im just annoyed bc i feel like i cant rly talk abt the things im into w her bc she disliked them so much#and also annoying to be around someone who shares an identity w me but is clearly more uncomfortable w it than i am#maybe thats not even true actually the real reason im annoyed is bc ive had a long and exhausting week and im coming down from-#my first day on new meds and im soooo so so tired have i sajd that already. and my head hurts#and i want a fucking hug and im just projecting my lack of physical and emotional intimacy onto her bc she happens to be the person i-#spend the most time with. but thats really unfair of me its not her fault or obligation at all. ah i just want to shower and sleeeepp#and tomorrow day 2 of meds im gonna get so much shit done!!!!!!!! i hope.. i wanna finish drafting my comic too teehee#wouldnt it be so crazy if now im medicated i might actually be able to start and finish projects i reallyyyy want to do..#well i wont get my hopes up yet#anyway........#another day another 5 million tag rambling post complaining abt everything. and dont expect me to ever stop 😚#.diaries#literally why would i care abt the tastes of a girl whose fave character in tlt was naberius........#she rly had to pick one of the ONLY men and not even one of the particularly interesting ones. and shes not even straight???? her loss 🙄

they make a Jackie duplicant and her stress reaction is all of them at once and her overjoyed reaction is also every stress reaction at once because I think if this women felt an ounce of legitimate happiness again shed immediately self destruct herself into the ground
#rat rambles#I have found the way to make myself like jackie and its by percieving her as way more pathetic than she was intended to come off qs#this is a woman who is torn between science and her ex and her urge to be petty to said ex#like tbh this is the reason I want jackie to get more logs because we just do not get to see her perspective on their relationship#we know that olivia was and likely still is very important to her#but this is from environmental stuff we dont hear a wiff of it from her own mouth#in general we do not get to know a lot about who jackie is as a person beyond second hand information#the only time we see her openly talking by herself is in the time ribbon logs#and those were both just abt yknow. the time ribbon bullshit.#and both were before gravitas and before she and olivia fell out#rly the only thing it tells us is that jackie is Very dedicated to what she thinks is important and at the very least started from a place#of wanting to better the world and likely she still thinks she does#but at the same time I think its become pretty clear that as time went on it sorta became more about bending reality to its limits#which is a thing I think she and olivia kind of have in common tbh#after they achieved the time ribbon I think they sorta both got a smidge bit progress hungry in their own ways#olivia less so but the two are still scientists at heart and more importantly scientists who only care so much abt the ppl around them#again olivia less so but like. I could not lie to you and say she cares That much about the ppl around her#she does care just. not enough to really... respect them I feel like?#as in clearly not enough to strongly oppose the whole dna stealing thing lol#even tho she probably sees it as not a big deal it's still not a great look lol#but yeah jackie is a lot harder to truly analyze because we just. dont get a whole lot from her.#I can presume a lot of her downhill spiral was from being put in a position of authority#its very easy for the human mind to start seeing real people as a bunch of numbers and statistics#she was likely very demanding even before then tho#like as far as we can tell olivia was like. her Only friend. which tbf we dont know nearly enough to know that for sure but still#I feel like jackie and olivia became friends because they both had a lot of out there theories that no one took seriously#and they took eachother seriously so they became fast friends as they finally found someone who would truly listen to them#but once the time ribbon was done and they were both left kind of flailing for smth to chase after next they ended up drifting#and I could see this deeply upsetting jackie and leaving her feeling deeply conflicted#idk its just interesting to me to imagine how jackie felt under the proffessional I need everyone to take me seriously face

I am once again thinking about how there are 8 billion+ people on this planet with complex lives and experiences and thoughts, and that this number doesn't even include past lives lived on this planet.
#And there's a million different ways to percieve each one#It's powerful#and so#so so much to try to comprehend#We're all so different and so much the same at the same time#Crazy world
