#they never have to pay for anything

[goddessofroyalty]

Hi!! I love your arcane fics and drabbles they are super fun! Sorry I'm too shy to come off anon but I was wondering what the dynamic was like when Vander, Silco and Benzo all lived together when Silco was pregnant with Viktor and when he was born. Did Benzo every try help out or did he stay away as much as possible?? I can't imagine cranky pregnant Silco and Benzo were a good mix lol 😂

No worries at all - I keep anon asks on so people who are shy can still message me.

The dynamic was very much one of people living practically on top of each other. So while Benzo did try and give Vander and Silco their own space it's kind of hard for him not to be involved. It's definitively part of the reason why Benzo ends up being effectively the kids uncle and a complete pushover to Viktor.

The pregnancy was not a great time for Silco and Benzo's relationship. However I do think Benzo's way of dealing/managing it is that it's Vander's problem (and regularly tells Vander that when Silco is clearly having some hormone emotion). But he still ends up roped into a lot of things because Silco tells Vander to do something/get something and Vander takes Benzo along with him for the errand. So he's helping out but that's because he's helping out Vander despite knowing the original request came from Silco (because he was often right there when Silco made the request).

Once Viktor is born I think they kind of find the dynamic that works and that dynamic is very much one of an uncle who is living with them and Silco and Benzo settle into their snarky but not overly antagonistic relationship. Because having Benzo around is very useful in both the terms of another set of hands (and eyes) but also someone that Silco and Vander can leave Viktor with if they need to go out and do something and don't want to bring Viktor with them. Silco and Vander are still definitively Viktor's Primary Caretakers but Benzo is definitively helping out. He's done diapers, he's done pacing with the baby that won't settle, he's done toddler feeds. But it's all very much just randomly here and there to help out then a set expectation on him

its kinda funny that the chaotix are like the only characters who mention having to pay rent or buy food or whatever and theyll take any job that pays because theyre desperate for money but none of the other characters are struggling in this department at all even though most of them dont seem to have jobs. its like the concept of needing money to live exists for no one in the sonic universe EXCEPT for vector espio and charmy

The basegame wedding dress has a pregnancy morph??

[gutfaced]

i honestly think that katniss and peeta didn't count as real victors. not the definition we know of them, anyway. they were set up for success and came out of the arena less scarred than any other, while other people bared those wounds. and then, their own kind were forced to die for them and their cause. just for a chance of freedom and a new world.

no, i don't think all the victors liked them. i don't believe they all got on. i do believe it took a lot of convincing on haymitch's side to trust and understand them in the empathetic way that he does. i do think that their victor experience is stunted because of the sacrifices others made in order to give them a near-smooth victory. they came out with wounds — that's guaranteed, but they didn't suffer in that proper way until the rebellion. there were times were K&P were both ignorant to the ways of a victor, and played off certain character's behavior and chalked it down to anything but their experiences.

president snow gave katniss a chance to quell the districts. they were allowed to play up the starcrossed lovers angle for as long as they needed to until the rebel plan panned out in full. they would've been eaten alive if not for the war.

I rewatched Gravity Falls with my sister and holy crap being an adult and watching everything Stan goes through is insane.

I’ve been working through some stuff in therapy and like, this man has made some mistakes but definitely did not deserve what the narrative did to him.

Screws up his brothers machine on accident? Homeless at 17 and doesn’t speak to his twin for 10 years. Sees his brother again when they’re both at the end of their respective ropes and in their worst places mentally? Gets in a fight that lands his brother trapped for 30 years while he takes his death and tries to open the technical monstrosity his brother built when this man hasn’t even finished high school. Gets his brother back after 30 years? Doesn’t get a scrap of acknowledgement and is told to move out and leave him alone. Has spent 40 years trying to fix and atone for his mistakes? Not even a thank you and gets emotional about it such that the spell against Bill doesn’t work.

What’s left? Oh I don’t know, how about losing all of your memories and sense of self, letting the narrative boil you down to nothing more than a mistake and the only way you’re capable of rectifying it is by ceasing to be yourself, as literally as possible.

Like, I’m sorry, but if Ford really was so unreceptive to actually talking/working through things, I think Stan had more than atoned for his mistakes. I don’t think he was a fuck up or that his takeaway from everything should be that he wasn’t worth it. That his sacrifice was what he owed the world for everything he did.

Because he didn’t do any of it alone.

And boo fucking hoo that Ford had to shoot his brother. If their places had been reversed I doubt Stan could have done the same.

I’m sorry, you trusted an inter dimensional demon, kept secrets because you were too prideful to ask for help or admit to your failings, and again too prideful to say thank you to your younger brother who spent 3 decades doing everything he could to get you back? Stop throwing such a tantrum and get off your high horse.

Sure Stan made mistakes, but Ford never seemed to learn from his.

Rewatching it I was actually angry at the ending, at the idea that when Stan is facing Bill he’s not even upset at the hand he’s been dealt. At the unfairness of it.

Because it was unfair.

And if I had a single gripe with the series at all I would wish for maybe one extra episode after Stan losing his memories and before getting them back. Just one single episode of Ford admitting how he hurt his brother, the role he played in the apocalypse, just 20 minutes of him coming to terms with his own flaws.

Because we as the audience know Ford isn’t perfect, but I need him to acknowledge that too.

There is so much fanfiction where Stan’s life is horribly lonely or traumatic in ways the show can’t cover or makes light of and I get it but also it’s clear other people relate to Stan feeling like all he’s done is make mistakes and that he deserves what he’s gone through and that is so NOT the case.

And I wish the official narrative would acknowledge that too.

You know how people say the person you spend New Year’s with (blah blah) is the person who’ll stick with you - well Lucy woke up after DOD to see Tim and that was the first day of the rest of her life, her New Year, and it was spent with Tim Bradford. It could have been Jackson, or even Nolan, but nope, it was Tim. I’m not saying that has meaning but I’m not not saying that and I’m not taking questions on it either.
