Outcaste Nakshatras: The Outsiders (part 3)

Here's part 1 and part 2

The more I study Mleccha nakshatra natives and the art they make, the more I understand how deeply lonely it is to have a Mleccha nak (Bharani, Ashlesha, Vishaka, Shravana) and I really feel for them. To live your whole life feeling misunderstood and othered is so difficult.

The movie Edward Scissorhands is a really good example of the "outcast" trope. The titular character is played by Johnny Depp who has Ashlesha Rising and his love interest is played by Winona Ryder who has Mercury (amatyakaraka) & Venus (atmakaraka) in Vishaka

I find Outcaste nak pairing very interesting because obviously you only feel like you belong/truly feel accepted in the presence of another Outcast.

Sidharth Malhotra, Vishaka Moon is married to Kiara Advani, who has Mercury & Venus (atmakaraka) in Ashlesha (if you have 2 or more planets in the same nak that energy is very concentrated even if its not your big 3)

they're both known for being pretty low-key people which is unusual in Bollywood lmao

Sid is an "outsider" which is what we call non-nepo actors in India. imagine the extent of nepotism in cinema in India that its the exception to be an "outsider"lmao. anyway Sid is pretty reserved and introverted and is known for not fitting in with the Bollywood crowd. Kiara is also kinda like that I guess but idk too much about her personality. They both seem happy together tho

Kareena Kapoor, Shravana Moon is married to Saif Ali Khan, Ashlesha Sun & Shravana Moon

Kareena's parents are famous actors who are separated (her dad was misogynistic and abusive and didn't want women to act) and even tho she's a nepo baby she didn't grow up with the same privileges as others in her famous family. Her elder sister had to drop out of school to support the family by acting as they were raised by a single mom and had fallen on bad times. You can see how the "outcast" themes were present in Kareena's life even though she's a very privileged nepo baby

Saif is also a nepo baby (welcome to bollywood lol) but he married a much older actress when he was 21 and had two kids. they later got divorced and Saif received a ton of bad press for alleged adultery, not getting custody or visitation rights of the kids, not paying child support (the amount was absurdly high tbh) etc he didn't fit in with the other actors of his generation. The media & public went crazy when news of Saif & Kareena getting married came out bc Saif is a divorcee with 2 kids (this stuff is still taboo in India unfortunately) and Kareena is one of the most successful stars of her generation. But they've been married for 10+ yrs and have 2 kids and are as happy as ever.

Even Kareena's longterm ex-boyfriend, Shahid Kapoor was a Mleccha caste nak guy (he has Vishaka Moon)

Expanding on the outcast tropes, Shahid's parents separated when he was young and he saw little of his biological father. He had to work very hard for very long to break into the industry and even now, he's not really given his due as an actor.

Alia Bhatt, Shravana Rising is married to Ranbir Kapoor, Shravana Moon

their marriage seems hella toxic to me ngl BUT they've both had similar childhoods.

Alia & Ranbir are both nepo babies (welcome to bollywood), Alia is like a tier 3 nepo (her father is a notoriously controversial filmmaker) whilst Ranbir is like a tier 1 nepo (he is a 4th generation actor from the biggest film family in India) however both their parents had unhappy marriages, and both of them had abusive fathers. trauma bonding, mayhaps? they're both also extremely close to their mothers as well (Moon dominant people often tend to be)

Its another example of Outcaste naks bonding over their shared experiences/feelings of being the outcast.

all members of Blackpink have an Outcaste nakshatra in their chart that is prominent in some way.

Jisoo- Shravana Moon, Venus in Vishaka (darakaraka), Ketu in Bharani

Rose- Venus conjunct Jupiter (debilitated) in Shravana

Jennie- Vishaka Moon, Mars in Shravana

Lisa- Jupiter in Shravana (debilitated), Swati Moon (Swati is a Shudra nak, which is the lowest caste so the themes are similar to that of outcaste naks)

This is interesting to me because BP is the biggest girl group of all time yet they are also probably disproportionately hated for things they cant even control. they were mismanaged by a shitty ass company with very few comebacks and barely got to display their true calibre as artists and their media interactions, promos, other activities etc were severely controlled and restricted. all of this is to say that despite being the most successful group their actual experiences are far from sunshine and roses. they were treated like outcasts by their company and the industry and fans. they trained for 4-6 years, enduring a brutal and toxic system, worked very hard with what they were given, with 0 creative liberty to come this far im glad theyre pursuing solo careers now and hope to see them thrive<333

the movie Lost in Translation is a good example of two outcasts/lonely people who find comfort in each other

Bill Murray is Shravana Moon and Scarlett Johansson is Vishaka Moon

Sridevi, Ashlesha Sun & Rising and Boney Kapoor, Vishaka Sun & Mercury

So they had a really fcked up marriage that I won't get into but they were both people who felt like outcasts in their lives. Sridevi grew up with a stepfather and was pushed into acting by her mother when she was 3-4 years old (she's like an Indian Judy Garland tbh) who deprived her of formal education and a normal life so that she'd be the family cash cow. Being South Indian, she also found it hard to fit in among Bollywood folks as she initially spoke neither Hindi nor English. Boney's the ugly duckling of his family and his younger brother is one of the most famous/iconic actors ever, he had to become a movie producer since his brothers became actors and his father (who was a movie producer) thought it would be better if he stayed behind the scenes. themes of exclusion and outcast-ness crop up in their lives and in the lives of all the people I mention here.

Lady Bird is a good example of a movie about a female teenage outcast. The titular character is played by Saoirse Ronan, who has Bharani Moon

Recently I came across the content creator, Alana Lintao who often makes shorts about social behaviour. This one in particular stood out to me because its literally about one person being excluded by a group of friends or being treated like "the other".

Alana plays the excluded friend in this short as well. She has Bharani Sun, Swati Moon and Mercury in Revati amatyakaraka (Swati & Revati are both Shudra naks)

Outcaste naks are vilified and crucified for mistakes others get away with.

Janet Jackson, Vishaka Rising & Ketu

Janet's career took a hit and her life took a tumultuous turn after the Superbowl incident. She did not deserve all the vitriol she received then especially considering how so many others get away with wayyy worse

Jennie, Vishaka Moon gets hated on for absolutely nothing

Lana Del Rey, Ashlesha Moon, Vishaka Rising (&stellium)

Lana does say dumb things from time to time but she gets soooo much unnecessary hate

I have noticed how Outcaste nakshatras often tend to have really difficult childhood experiences

Jeanette McCurdy- Ardra sun, Bharani Moon & Pushya Rising

Jeanette opens up about her abusive mother and terrible childhood in her memoir. I mention her other placements as well because I've noticed that both Ardra & Pushya natives also experience abuse in their early lives

Britney Spears, Shravana Moon

she has endured so much abuse from so many people including her family. i wish her peace.

Wheein, Vishaka Moon grew up with a single mother and later after she made her debut her estranged father tried to borrow money from people under her name?? there was a minor scandal about it many years ago. She also grew up quite lower middle class if not poor.

David Bowie, Shravana Rising

Bowie once said, "“It wasn’t a particularly happy childhood, my parents were cold emotionally. There weren’t many hugs. I always craved affection because of that.”

Cole & Dylan Sprouse, Ashlesha Sun

Speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast, he explained that their mother's issues with mental health and addiction contributed to her being "financially the most irresponsible woman ever." He said that when their dad was given forced custody when the boys were 10, their mom had already spent everything they'd earned from their early acting jobs. Though their dad wanted them to be "normal kids," he ultimately decided that the boys' acting careers were a financial necessity.

Ariel Winter, Shravana Sun

Ariel Winter has spoken out about how acting wasn't her choice, but it was her mother's. Ariel shared that her mother, Crystal Workman, had dreams of being an actor herself. Ariel said that with Crystal as her stage mom, she dealt with a lot of abuse and exploitation.

Once Ariel's acting career began, she said her mom put her on a strict diet and neglected her education. Her mother also had her dress in outfits that sexualized her. Ariel claimed her mom put her in “the smallest miniskirts, sailor suits, low-cut things, the shortest dresses you’ve ever seen. People thought I was 24 when I was 12. If there was going to be a nude scene when I was that age, my mother would have a thousand percent said yes.”

Now Bollywood is an industry run by film dynasties, its very rare for someone from the outside to break in and make it big. Being an "Outsider" is very difficult, people bully you, try to sabotage your career, try to isolate you etc etc, needless to say its not for the faint of heart. So lets take a look at some of the most successful "Outsiders" in Bollywood who made it big without any family in the business

ofc we have to start with the most successful outsider of all time, Shahrukh Khan, Shravana Moon

he truly came from nothing (father died when he was a teenager, mother died before he made his debut, has a sister with special needs who he has taken care of his entire life) and became the biggest star in the world.

Akshay Kumar, Vishaka Moon, he was a martial artist, chef, waiter and worked numerous odd jobs before he started modelling in his late 20s and later started acting and today he has a net worth of $340 million

Anushka Sharma, Bharani Sun

her life is truly a case of being lucky af, she was a model and by the age of 19-20 she was cast in a film opposite Shahrukh Khan aka the biggest actor in the country produced by YRF, one of the biggest film production companies in India. its truly a fairy tale because neither can Anushka act nor is she gifted in any other way (bad dancer, heck she was even an awful model) but she's incredibly successful in every way and is now married to the (former) Captain of the Indian cricket team

Deepika Padukone, Shravana Rising

she is from a privileged background (her dad's a renowned badminton player) but she worked very very hard to get where she is today and has had more career longevity than just about any other actress.

Bipasha Basu & John Abraham, Bharani Moon

they were both a hot couple who were really popular in the 2000s

there are many other successful Outsiders but they don't have outcaste naks lol, these are the only ones i can think of rn :/

i hope this post was informative<33

[aerospectrum]

edit: this was initially 3 short paras and then i lost control. random thoughts/character analysis of homelander under the cut; feel free to add your own thoughts or opinions if you see fit. these are just my own personal thoughts and opinions here I speak for nobody but myself 🫡🩵🔥 here is some listening music if you read along disclaimer: this is an rp related analysis so i talk about some shipping stuff too

one of the big reasons I like homelander and jamie together so much is because of the similarities i see between them both and I think think that makes their ship dynamic a bit more than just 2d for myself.

homelander/ john was created and forced into the spotlight from birth; he always has to be “on” for everyone and in the show it’s played out so well and lets the audience into this unspoken/unprocessed trauma that literally goes deeper than his childhood. I think of the scene where he looks in the file box and see's that they've even bagged his blanket up and call it a “prop”. It's like all he’s ever been to vought and the world is a prop. They have the control to send Homelander into a simultaneous spiral of self doubt and untamable rage: it gets them views, it reminds Homelander of his "place" it reminds him that he is a lab experiment, that everything special about him came from a fucking test tube and there's nothing he can do to change that. and when he starts to break free from their own little world of control and mind games it upsets them (but it forces them to recognize that he's nearly unstoppable and he can and will fight back when backed into the corner and they better watch their fucking backs). Homelander has his flaws, as does any good character and I think that's what I like about him.

Like he's a total asshole, a real dick who doesn't force himself to filter his shitty opinions or comments regardless of who it affects. We see that with the way he just freely lets people know that humans are toys that are there to be broken. That has got to be something that was hardwired into him as a kid anytime he made a mistake playing with another human and forgot his threshold is not at all the same as a humans. When he'd cry and feel remorse and empathy for those in pain; I think Vought cut that out of him, shamed him and made him feel less than for caring for those "less than him" and so of course he's grown to see himself as better than, to see humans as replaceable, expendable- useless toys that can be remade for his needs and desires. But I think there's a part of him still in there buried beneath all the darkness that wants human connection, wants worth and belonging. There's tons of scenes that prove this to me-- this man craves physical intimacy in the form of gentle touch and kind words, he was just abandoned so often that his depravity and douchebag external behaviors have become his security blanket.

In him embracing who they created him to be, suddenly he’s evil and malicious and needs to be killed. they created a “monster” and then got mad that it did exactly what they trained it to do. (For clarity homie is not a monster to me) he’s been abandoned by everyone and everything that makes a person “human” he was punished for his shortcomings, let down by everyone who should’ve done more and done better. And then they blame him for how he turned out and try to kill him at every single opportunity. He’s only out of control because there’s been no stability or security for him from anyone, anywhere, ever. It feels like fear is a big component or driving factor in how Homelander rationalizes his actions. 

So why do I see such similarities and enjoy the concept of shipping Homelander wiht Jamie Dutton from Yellowstone? Thanks for asking lmao. I'll jump right in. With Jamie Dutton we already know his birth dad was an abusive drunk who created a drug fueled addict out of his mother. John Dutton has no trouble telling Garrett to his face that Garrett punished his wife for becoming what he created her to be and then in a drug/alcohol fueled rage killed his mother when he found jamie had gotten ahold of her drugs-- he also passively states that if Jamie wants to allow Garrett to undo everything John made him to be then it was fair game and to go ahead. No decent parent views their child as a project they solely created- like some science project slapped together on the weekends. John Dutton for the record also has a savior complex though because he likes to play the part of a saint while being one of the most abusive fathers out there to all of his children, we just see it played out the most on screen with Jamie,

Garrett killing his wife gets him thrown in prison and Jamie is adopted out of obligation by none other than the states biggest name, John dutton, and john raises this kid to know that he’s not real family- he’s not loved or respected by him or the rest of his family. The proof of this is Beth yelling at her father to tell her that he ever cared about or loved Jamie the way he did her, Kayce, or Lee. So if the other children picked up on this fact I'm gonna be hard-pressed to believe Jamie didn't himself. And yet Jamie is expected to live up to and beyond the expectations and standards of John Dutton or suffer the consequences-- of which he's suffered a multitude of times already.

All Jamie wants is to be loved and to belong-- He has no sense of identity because that's how John raised him up. He was nothing but a means to an end, a tool and one that John spends his entire childhood berating in front of his siblings and everyone else watching. He disparages Jamie's accomplishments and character to anyone within listening distance constantly. Jamie was a good cowboy-- Rip has mentioned this a few times that Jamie was really good at what he did as a cowboy before John applied sneakily under the table to Ivy League College Harvard on the completely opposite side of the states and pushed Jamie as far away from the ranch as he legally could. He asks Jamie directly what he wants to be when he grows up and Jamie says, I wanna be like you dad, I wanna make you proud and run the Yellowstone like you and John laughs in his face and says the only way you'll be like me a protect the ranch is if you leave and do everything I tell you to do down to a T- don't stray, don't fuck up, do what I say and then you'll have a shot at being me. He lies through his teeth to this kid because he can't have someone who isn't blood in the line of inheritance.

Not only does John force Jamie to become the thing he hates most as a way to dangle the hope Jamie has of being loved in front of him, he vocally regrets and despises Jamie for it. Jamie operates out of abandonment a lot and begrudgingly becomes the best lawyer he can be- so much that he becomes the states attorney but only after John has spent full energy humiliating and punishing Jamie for daring to want more than what John will ever give him. Repeatedly, John yanks the respect and love right out of Jamie's reach anyway and every time. he ostracizes Jamie while demanding he not embarrass the Dutton family or name. When Jamie finally has enough and attempts having a backbone of his own John not only beats him up and has him disowned but agrees with his daughter that Jamie is his greatest failure in life and biggest disappointment.

They not only convince jamie not to kill himself but then they spend all their energy telling him he's a coward and weak minded and weakhearted and should kill himself it escalates to them saying that they will kill him. They created him to be the protector of their heritage; lineage, inheritance- everything he wasn't allowed to be a part of and when he's become what they forced him to be they still hate him and want him killed. 

Jamie breaks a window after his sister and father corner him in the kitchen. He screams that he’s given everything to this family and why isn’t it good enough and that he hates John. Later on his sister backs him into a corner- forces him to kill his birth father who surprisingly is the only one who genuinely loves Jamie and tells him to never let the Duttons convince him he's a bad man just because he's different from them. Then she threatens him with rape, prison, taking and hurting his child and finally with murdering him. But the narrative still wants you to believe that Jamie is the villain because he isn't a blood Dutton. They abuse this character over the span of 5 seasons and call his reactionary actions to the perpetual abuse wrong and abusive---why do they want me to view the victim of abuse as the victim-- that's fucked. Jamie operates a lot out of fear too and people think that it makes him spineless but it doesn’t. When you’ve been forced back in a corner all your life by pitchforks and fire eventually the fear breaks and you lash out in desperation. But they use that against him and consider him a villain for it. 

Jamie's storyline reminds me so much of Homelander asking Ryan “why am i not good enough for you?” Because his entire life he’s been forced into this worldview that he’s nothing more than a show animal or a puppet for the world to play with. Like Homelander laments; he does what people want they hate him... he doesn’t do what people want they hate him. He tries and he tries and he tries and it’s never good enough. But nobody ever stops to think he was raised from birth to be the way he is. There was no security for him, no warmth or care, no humanity nor humility for him to learn and grow from. Maybe he sees the way he could’ve been in Ryan and it opens up a wound in him like “but why couldn’t i have had a mother or father who loved me, who wanted me? Why did it always have to be “smile at the camera and do a trick?” Homelander was forced into to the dance monkey dance schtick and Jamie was forced to become the outlet of his families disgust and hatred. Therefore at the first signs of feeling anything other than fear, malice, self preservation, or disappointment they're incapable of accepting honest gestures of love from the people around them because it could all be a joke, it could be all for show and just a ruse- they could let their guards down and learn to love and be loved only for it all to be yanked away and the bright lights shined down on them in a display of "hahaha you idiot it was all fake!"

No matter what either of them do it’s never good enough and they both strike me as the carriers of the worst type of trauma from abuse and neglect, I just love my damaged me so deeply. Annnnyway that’s all. I mean there’s more but that’s all for rn because this is very long winded and I don’t want to be annoying lmao. 

[okthatsgreat]

hiii okay i just started reading opddmh and i was wondering if you have any thoughts about komaru and toko's relationship and udg in relation to the virtual reality au you're writing? :3c they are so precious to me and if u dont have any thoughts on it thats fine!! just wondering <3 have a good day!!

OOOO DEFINITELY !!! nothing too complex or thought out but ive definitely got some thoughts on it >:)

first things first ultra despair girls is most certainly some kind of spinoff in this universe! so its not considered a main storyline/killing game however it is still on ongoing series! i imagine after 53 seasons the danganronpa timeline has been seriously fucked up and udg is absolutely one of the main reasons its so wonky, you can IMAGINE all of the conspiracy youtube videos trying to piece that shit together lmfaooooo. but yep udg is a running spinoff series starring toko, komaru, and the warriors of hope (who are teenagers in this au at this point!!). it also features a range of other villains and side characters that were introduced later on :] udg definitely isnt as popular nor is it as consistent in its production as the main danganronpa story is (while danganronpa has at least one season per year, udg has one maybe every three), but it still gets a whole lot of views !! which means toko and komaru are unfortunately in it for the long haul </3

they live seperate from each other however they're over at each others apartments so often that they basically live together LMFAO. they rely on each other SO so heavily. i personally think they have romantic feelings somewhere underneath their fear of losing each other to the mental trauma of danganronpa however there is NO WAY danganronpa would ever let them be a couple. the most theyre allowed to do is queerbait ghfdsjkghjkdf. if they confirm anything between the pair they are destroying an entire market of fans they can profit off of and also likely losing hella sponsorship money. its extremely difficult navigating a relationship like that, where they have become so heavily codependent on each other not only because their wellbeing relies on the other being healthy and well but also because they've grown so close it's impossible to imagine a future where the other isnt involved somehow. everything danganronpa has put them through, it has usually been TOGETHER, which means they've bonded through those experiences. is that healthy? absolutely the fuck it is not however there is no time or space to navigate that or to spend time away from each other (even if they wanted to, which they don't)!!

the pair stay relatively close with the warriors of hope-- or at least komaru does lmfaooo. like i said before the warriors of hope are teenagers at this point (honestly theyre probably mius age!! which sparks a lot of hypothetical interactions LMAO) so they dont really need babysitters or anything like that but because there are not very many people who could possibly understand what they've gone through they tend to stick together!! a few of them, at least. i imagine nagisa is a lot more distant and kotoko probably has other friends she talks to a whole ton :] people that arent constant walking reminders of her current and past traumas lol

komaru also doesnt talk to makoto as often anymore! they kind of keep in touch and definitely see each other at press conferences and all that, but the relationship has become somewhat strained. its a bit awkward knowing they arent actually related!! theyre still kind to each other and care about each other like actual siblings but its hard not to feel sad around the other unfortunately :(

and toko definitely doesnt talk to byakuya much anymore besides the occasional promotional material LMFAO. they dont despise each other but both have done a lot of growing and a lot of that included distancing themselves from each other

SORRY IF THAT WAS MORE THAN YOU ASKED FOR!!! THANK YOU <33

[imogenkol]

12, 26, 36, 44, 48, 53, 55 for the otp ask <3

Thanks so much!! I’ll answer these for Jayde and Nadya 💕

12. Do they have many heated arguments? How do they smooth things over?

Luckily they don’t argue too often, but there have definitely been some instances when they've had to step away from each other for a bit and cool off. Jayde can't sleep without Nadya next to her, though, so their fights hardly ever carry over into the next day and they usually end up talking things out and/or coming to a compromise. One thing about their relationship is that they know no matter how bad their disagreements are, they'll still be together.

26. What are their vices?

Jayde has a laundry list of self destructive habits that range from alcohol abuse to never being able to walk away from a fight. It stems from her lack of self preservation due to her survivor's guilt. She gets better over time, but her behavior can be a point of contention in their relationship.

Nadya, on the other hand, is a workaholic. She buries herself in tasks or school work or hours at the clinic to bolster her sense of self worth while also not giving herself the time to think about/acknowledge her past traumas. She is really good at hiding her pain because of it, too.

36. Who’s more likely to fire up the stove at 2am because the other woke up in the middle of the night hungry?

Jayde all the way. And she has cooked for Nadya that late, too. Cooking is one of her love languages and all it takes is one little comment from Nadya about something she thinks sounds tasty and Jayde is on it.

44. Who would dance in the kitchen making dinner? Would the other join in or watch from the doorway?

Once Jayde gets comfortable with music again she'll sometimes sings to herself while she cooks and Nadya joins in on the fun by dancing until she can finally pull Jayde away from the stove to dance with her as she sings. RIP to the accidentally burnt casualties along the way tho.

48. Who’s the better driver?

On paper, Nadya is. She actually has a legal license lol. Jayde picked it up on her family ranch curtesy of her dad, but never actually took a driving test and got her license. Jayde can pull off some crazy ass maneuvers under a ton of pressure, though! Whereas Nadya tends to panic behind the wheel while they're being shot at or run down. Understandably.

53. Would they go skinny dipping?

They both love to go skinny dipping! But only if there's a really private area. Jayde actually found a secret watering hole not too far from the Lodge and took Nadya there for her birthday one year (the birthday she proposed) and they spent a good chunk of the afternoon skinny dipping.

55. Do they like watching clouds or star gazing?

They do both, but their favorite by far is star gazing. Especially on camping nights where they've hiked all day and it's just the two of them out in the middle of nowhere all snuggled up by the campfire.

[countlessrealities]

Tell us about your favorite relationships of your OCs!

Unprompted asks || Always accepting !

I'll make a little list (and try not to write a poem for each of them xD), so it will be tidier!

Mercenary Rick & Vampire Rick ( @mcltiples ) ~ Where to start with these two? Maybe from the fact that, thanks to Rin, not only I got to write this particular OC, but also to develop him and his mentality...and how it shifts when faced with a reality that's much crazier than the one he had only theorised up to one point. I had initially created Mercenary Rick with a specific plotline in mind (which btw I never got to write), but I'm so glad to have had the chance to make him into something more than a character in one story. And I've also discovered that he is much more fun to write than I had thought! His dynamic with Vampire Rick is hilarious and touching at the same time. On one hand, these two appear so very different on the surface and get into tons of misunderstandings, not to mention that they have a few recurring gags that never get old. On the other, however, the truth is that they are more similar than they realise. They could easily understand each other's pain and regrets, maybe even help each other heal...if they weren't so stubborn and emotionally constipated -facepalm-

AR & E-Rick ( @mcltiples again ) ~ Honestly, I had expected these two to butt heads a lot. Instead, not only they became fast friends (despite how AR has embarrassed E-Rick in front of the whole Citadel during their first meeting), but they also ended up dating each other, somehow. They are absolutely adorable (E-Rick especially), and also kind of wholesome. AR tends to lower his masks down a bit around E-Rick and shows a more caring, tender side that's rarely seen under any other circumstances. On the other hand, however, they are both keeping secrets and hiding the darkest sides of themselves from each other. I'm looking forward to see how their relationship will be affected when all that shit comes to the surface. It could either break them up or tie them closer. It's more likely that the second thing will happen, but I'm anticipating plenty of delicious angst before they get there!

SR & E-Rick ( @mcltiples again 2.0) ~ Another very fun dynamic Rick and I developed, always involving her E-Rick, is his friendships with SR. They met through AR (of course) and it turns out that they are so very similar, much more than Rin and I had realised at first. They both have a soft spot for Mortys, they both are extremely diligent when it comes to their job, they both have well defined but flexible morals and they both can be really dramatic. Not to mention how easy to fluster they both are xD Honestly, they are more than friends, or at least are starting to be. I can see them becoming queerplatonic partners down the road. They are very affectionate with each other, verbally and physically, and really emotionally close. They've actually kissed a couple of times and have some sort of attraction thing ongoing, but absolutely no form of romance...and they wouldn't want it any different.

AR & Slick Morty ( @slickmcrty ) ~ One of the core concepts on which I had initially created AR's character is that he absolutely doesn't want to be assigned Morty. His guilt over his Beth's death has led him to alienate everyone in his life, because deep down he is convinced that he will eventually get them killed too. Considering how Mortys tend to be treated by plenty of Ricks and considering how dangerous his job can be, he had always refused to keep the ones who get assigned to him. Enter Slick, the way Ally writes him. He's been through a lot of Rick-related trauma and he has gained this reputation as a jinx because all his previous Ricks have either died or got rid of him after he had almost killed them. AR is his last chance. So, despite his rule, AR keeps him, while he tries to find someone he can paw him off to...but in the end that never happens. They have a very fun dynamic, where AR is pretty much the "cool uncle" or the "prankster older brother". He'll tease Slick and mess with him to the point the poor kid could die of embarrassment, but at the same time he's fiercely protective of him. And he got attached, even if he wouldn't admit it easily. Slick has also started to work on his past traumas and find some self-esteem and happiness, which I find absolutely heart-warming.

SR & Bishop ( @technodromes ) ~ These two are another ship I didn't see coming xD I thought since the start that they would make a great pair of friends, since their work ethics are very much alike, and so is their willingness to break the rules for the right reason (or for the sake of a few, specific people). Also, their lack of social skills makes them naturally comfortable with each other, because they understand each other's difficulties when it comes to this sort of thing. But damn, never I would have thought that they could have so much romantic chemistry! It was a good surprise and, even if Saby and I have just started exploring that side of their relationship, I already love them. They are cute and wholesome and hilarious too. Two grown men (well, fully developed brain in Bishop's case, I guess) and they act like teenagers at their first crush xD I wasn't really planning on giving SR a love interest, 'cause he kinda gave up on that sort of things after his divorce, but I guess Bishop changed both my and his mind.

SR & F-289 Morty ( @shwiftymedley ) ~ This is another work-in-progress dynamic, but I'm already really enjoying it. These two are such an unlikely pair, forced to bond out of necessity, and yet they find out that they can enjoy each other's company a lot. It's a little unsettling at first, especially for SR, because they are very much far from their idea of how a Rick/Morty is supposed to be, but that's also why they find each other's company pleasant. Finding SR a work partner was one of the things I've always wanted to do with him (it's even in his bio) and I think that F-289 could make a great pick for that role!

AR & SR ~ Last but not least, let me talk about a relationship between my two OCs xD Idk if it fits the ask, but AR and SR's friendship is super important for both their characters. SR basically saved AR's life and he is the first person AR has allowed close to him since his Beth's death. Not to mention that he is the only one to know the real extent of AR's mental illness. Similarly, AR is the first person in a long time SR feels like he can be himself with. He might get teased a lot, but he can let loose with his best friend as he has never done before. Their dynamic is really funny because they are opposites in a lot of things (starting from their chosen careers) and their personalities clash a lot too, and yet they are thicker than thieves. Neither can imagine his life without the other by now. Fun fact, I had developed them individually until one day I decided that SR could be the Rick who rescues AR after he arrives on the Citadel...and they have been inseparable since then.

okay as painful as it is to feel stupid and vulnerable im just gonna post

i really want dragonstomp to happen. ive poured dozens of hours into trying to make it happen already, between fireworks and making the flyer and trying to figure out my set and listening literally hundreds of records trying to find new tracks to play and i feel like it's all for naught. there is no worse imaginable feeling in the world to me than throwing a party and having nobody come. it's the ultimate coalescence of being ghosted/abandoned/ignored, failing at something, and being disliked. like you put all this work into something where the objective is just for people to have fun, and they would rather do something else than have fun with you. throwing a party and having it suck is one thing, but having nobody come at all is its own self-contained punishment.

i used to be a very vibrant part of two different communities and now i feel utterly abandoned by both. it's like im "trying to make fetch happen" and everyone is just humoring me. it's been like pulling teeth to get djs because they've all gone back to irl events, which i can't attend because im miss chicken little glass bones and paper skin worwied about a widdle viwus that everyone else "lives with". so here i am alone in my shitty little cloister bedroom trying to at least simulate having fun in a virtual world, which feels beyond pathetic, ESPECIALLY because said virtual world feels vacant of all the people who previously were so passionate about it. dragonflight has been a great expansion but after the legitimate trauma of the last few years it feels like lukewarm water on a burn; the most anyone can feel about it is "lukewarm" because the wounds are so fresh. people are still reeling over sylvanas, afrasiabi, mccree, and blitzchung even still. i feel like it should be a time to celebrate, but so many people have just ditched it for good and moved on. or ive been mean to them or they've been mean to me or they've been mean and shitty and negative in general so ive become splintered off from a ton of people. i don't blame them for not wanting to deal with me but im reaping what ive sown i guess. i don't even want to do the party for me, it's not like it's my birthday, i just want to have an rp event that i actually want to attend. something that isn't "let's pretend to get drunk and then erp in whispers" for 5 hours. since the lore is so fucked anyway i can't imagine an rp rave is that much far off from anything else in game. yeah it's no bonfire bash, but im doing it all myself so this is as good as i can do.

then im at my tables trying to practice, thinking about how ive spent thousands on djing over the years only to have all these records i fucking suck at playing. i didn't even get speakers until like a year ago so ive been djing with a handicap this whole time because i didnt have monitors. and now that i have them, i can't even use them because im such a loser that i still live with my parents, one of which literally doesn't leave the house, so i don't have any time to play from my speakers. everyone in this house gets to use their instrument except me. so i simply don't use it. as a result, i suck at djing. i COULD just spin for the entire night to make up for the 3-4 DJ slots im missing, but that feels completely pathetic too.

on top of everything im really struggling to draw for the flyer because i don't draw anymore (for a lot of the same reasons) and thinking about just what a waste my life is. i got a degree in this shit and i can't even do it right.

im reminded of my therapist agreeing that ive outgrown all this stuff is the main thing; either ive diverged from it or it's gone somewhere i can't follow. all of that is morally neutral. the problem i guess is that i have nothing to move on to, no bigger shell to grow into, so im hermiting in the ones that are cracked and splintered and no longer fit. and when i leave them im adrift, middle of the sea, nothing but darkness in any direction, completely exposed. and i have been drifting a long, long, long time. still there is darkness. still there is no direction.

i didn't want to post anything about this because i know it's shooting myself in the foot and looks like pandering and now itll taint the spirit of the event. but at the same time it already feels tainted, like im struggling to get anybody to care and people only do because they feel bad for me, not because they're actually excited. every single thing i do it feels like im forcing people to come with me or that they just ambivalently tag along. it's like nobody is ever excited about the same things i am. i dont know how to get excited about what everyone else likes. i don't know if it's all in my head or what. all i ever am is in my head because i spend my entire fucking life alone in my bed.

[the-au-ideas]

Okay so I'm making an idea in my little brain

R sides! Characters and ideas below! Its in order for the weeks aswell. Tw for some blood and mentioned abuse, As well as a TON of lgbtq shit if you really get triggered by that

This is BF, Also known as Reggie. He's a complete and utter asshole. He got famous for being a piece of shit to everyone, And it's how he stayed famous. He had a genuine hate for everyone around him (except his family) and even despised his fans. The only people he treats with genuine love and care is his family. Or, They were, Until he met GF, Also known as Annabelle. She started off as a fangirl who followed him around, He despised her until he began to know her and they fell in love. Behind the camera he's shown as abusive physically and mentally, But when it's all off he holds her close and they both know how much they love eachother. Once a fan saw this and recorded it, Making it go viral and basically ruining his career as everyone thought his videos were now scripted. Eventually, Running out of ideas and options, He recorded a diss track rap video. It didn't matter if it was scripted, The music was good and it got him back on track. It was his viewers passion, So it was his.

Reggie Jackson

Male

-----

Girlfriend, Also known as Anne or Annebelle, Was a huge fan of Reggie. To her, He was just someone trying to be funny to help others smile. Annabelles real name was Juan, But after realizing she was a woman she began doing research on how to transition when she found multiple people talking about the permanent life threatening things that could happen. She watched as other trans women sobbed on camera describing the agony of just living an every day life. Knowing this knowledge, She decided to not transition. She thought of hormones until she realized those have permanent effects as well- Reading more she saw as people would detransition with permanent damage from it all, Because doctors don't even warn the people transitioning of permanent damage and make them think it's easily undone. Now in her past time she tries to spread awareness, Not wanting people to do something they don't know all the consequences of. Her song would be Anna moving in to Reggies house, He helping her move.

'The First Step'

Annabelle

Male to Female

-----

DD, Or in this mod we know as Father Fearest, Is Annabelles father. He refuses to accept her, Calling her his son and Juan. His week would start off with he and Reggie meeting, Annabelle wanting him to approve of her boyfriend. Of course, FF wasn't too pleased about his 'son' being 'gay', But he smiled through it so Reggie wouldn't catch on. Of course, He did though, Seeing how Father's Fearest treated his girlfriend he began to get mad. 3rd song Reggie snaps and the ground shakes as he sings, A new pissed sprite replacing his usual one. Afterwards, A cutscene would play of FF trying to grab Annabelles wrist, Just for Reggie to grab his hand and break it.

Pico is a non-binary cop who risks their life to keep the innocent people safe. They even arrested their own parents, Who happen to be mob bosses. Of course, You'd expect them to hate each other because of their differences, But you would be wrong. They separate work and relationships. The fact they could bride the judges for way less time helped them not to hold a grudge, As well. Their parents are very supportive, And always have been. It helps that their little brother wanted to take over the family buisness, So losing them wasn't a big loss. They've stopped at least 3 total school shootings, Saving multiple people in the process. They've almost met their death multiple times, By crooked cops and criminals alike. To survive you've got to get your hands a little dirty, So don't blame them for the cops that went missing after making crooked deals. They'd show up to arrest Reggie and Anna for assault on Father Fearest.

Non-Binary

-----

Best friends since they were toddlers, Much more than neighbors. They were known for never leaving each others sides! They always wanted to spend the night at each others houses, They needed to be in the same classes and next to each other in class or they'd bawl their eyes out. They got older, They changed. No longer the type to sob for the other if separated, In fact, Skid would simply message Pump to make up for it. Pump would fight anyone to get to Skid, Even his own parents. They usually go by he/him if alone, Which is rare, But when they're together they won't let you address just one of them. Pumps parents had always been abusive and neglectful to him, So one day, On his 12th birthday, He stabbed them both 37 times in the chest. He told Skid and they ran away together. Now they have their own gang, Skid hacks to disable security cameras and alarm systems, While Pump does the actual murders for neglectful or abusive parents. Their organization grows with every kid saved. Seeing Reggie and Anna running from Pico, They bring them to their hideout to question them. As long as they answer their questions, Nobody will get hurt.. Hopefully.

'Link', As he calls himself, He's supposedly a cop whos been looking for Skid and Pump. Despite this, They both seem almost fearful for their lives around this man. It still likes to find them and almost terrorize them with the threats they have. Its probably smart to keep them separated, After all this guy won't tell you anything besides his name and age.. On closer inspection, That outfit doesn't look like the other cops.. And whats up with its arm?

He/It

-----

Monster is a demon sent from hell, Its one and only goal is to take Pumps soul for the crimes he's committed. It's not after Skid, Just Pump. It still, Despite this, Won't hesitate to kill them both if it comes to it. He likes beetles, So he gave himself those types of horns. It's not all evil, It just has a job to do. He'd be striking at Reggie in his song, Attempting to hurt and kill him to get to Pump. Reggie would once again get aggressive here and shake the whole place, Which ends the song with a cutscene of a piece of ceiling falling and crushing Monster. He's not dead, Though.

MM, or Mother Meanest, Is known as Annabelles mother. While being a kindhearted nurse on the surface, She was abusive to her daughter underneath it all. She'd physically abuse and beat her, Not caring for how she cried. Annabelle would've taken Reggie there so his mom could treat him and fix him up. While resting Reggie realizes what's going on and fights her. In the first song he's suspicious, 2nd one is followed by a cutscene that shows MM hitting Anna followed by Reggie going into his signature angry mode. His stitches pop and he's a mess obviously. It ends with Reggie telling Anna to run. MM often uses the excuse for beating her as it's her 'culture'

On the week with MM and FF working together, They try to kill Reggie to gain back control of their 'son'. The first two songs, Reggie has voice cracks he has to not hit or else he'll lose half of his health. MM would also be throwing syringes that Reggie has to dodge. The 3rd song goes dark, Just Reggie singing to himself. It'd be a melodramatic song with sad giving up undertones. Slowly it'd get louder and more aggressive, Til he's once again shaking the stage in anger! The song ends with a cutscene of Pico telling them to freeze. Charges against Reggie are dropped as they're brought to trial for attempted murder.

'Double trouble'

Senpai, Or Kyle, Is an 8 year old kid who loves everyone. He really is just your normal 8 year old, Except instead of terrorizing, He likes to help anyone and everyone he can! One day, On the lake, He noticed two people, Reggie and Anna, On a date in a swan boat. They began to sing, And wanting to play with them, He got in a row boat and began to swim towards them. He interrupts their song with an upbeat pirate tune, Trying to win Annas heart.. And he did! She thought he was adorable, And gave his cheeks a squeeze before his parents came to get him. Of course, While he didn't become a romantic interest, Anna would remember this adorable charmer when her and Reggie adopted their own children.. If Reggie ever came around on the idea.

Youtube updated their terms of service, And Reggies videos break near all of them!!! Words like #^$*, &!%#* and even slurs such as #^@% and %#^@%#, Its far too much! Reggie is in big trouble, Though he doesn't seem to care. He takes this time to just troll youtube.. Which leads to the following

After being banned from youtube, Where else was Reggie to go? Garbage platforms like twitch, Or god forbid, Bitchute? No, Course not.. Spotify rapping would be his new career!

Hi! Recently came across your blog and I absolutely LOVE your Saitama HC SM

Anyways I can here to request H/C  With Saitama, Genos, Garou, and mumen rider (all my fucking beloved) 

With a Fem!Be it friend or S/o that’s part Phoenix or is a result of a lab experiment, with a shit ton of scars from being hunted or tested on with her healing abilities (Phoenix example being like Marco from one piece, can turn into a giant blue flaming bird, and/or can turn her arms into flaming wings, have talons for feet near shit)

Please and thank you! Your amazin!

Man these animal requests are so cool I'm digging it. Thanks for asking! I'll give it my best! Sorry it took so long I've been working for days n days straight 😭

Asks the weirdest fucking questions. Nothing to do with the experiment, but like if you lay eggs or some shit

He thinks you look fucking sick when you on your flame shit

Hunters? What hunters? They've mysteriously vanished? A weirdly long strain of good luck? Who knows

If you're ever upset in anyway he always has a small fire extinguisher nearby and whips it out. Mostly to make you laugh but just in case he has no idea what phoenix's are capable of

Prick move but he's always buying sunflower seeds or nuts and giving them to you. The fact he's spending money to joke with you though shows he does like you and thinks of you often

If you got bird feets, it doesn't bother him. However, you CAN bother him if you like grab his knee with them or something it gives him the creeps

Also asks weird questions but he has answered most himself thankfully. By hyper analysing everything of you, of course

Trauma bonding! Woo hoo! (Not rly woo hoo y'all just find good connection with that)

Anyone that even stares too long is at risk of being deleted. Watch out for his canons

Can you heal a cyborg? Maybe? Y'all both wondering but by the time you find out he got his ass mowed he's at Kuseno's already.

The people that experimented on you are also now on his revenge list. You're not talking him out of it if you wanted to try.

Lots of drawings of you n your bird anatomy fill his notebook. He just thinks you're hella cool tbh.

He knows exactly how many scars and marks are on your body and WILL detect if there's a new one so to save you trouble just call/text him if something happens. Whether it was a hunter or you hurt yourself on accident

Oh lawd, this boi

He is extremely protective and defensive of you. Absolutely no one will lay a hand on you like that ever again

Straight up will just snap their neck or something unnecessarily overkill he has zero humanity for the hunters after you

Sometimes you'll catch him staring at your scars, but he won't admit it. He isn't trying to be rude. He just can't imagine how you got them specifically and it bothers him

Also trauma bonding but he has the vibe where he jokes about it and continues his day like nothing is wrong

Refuses. REFUSES to let you heal him if he's injured. He doesn't want to use you in any way.

If you wait till he falls asleep and just heal him a tad he won't notice. He'll believe he's just a fast healer, tbh. And he bragging like, "See, I healed just fine by myself!"

Lucky him you're a healer. Ass whooping magnet. Feels hella bad though despite saving multiple hospital trips.

Always complimenting you and your features/abilities you have. Literally your #1 fan

He wanna see if he is as fast as your top flight speed and always wanna race you on his bike. He's rly trying to get you both at your best speeds. Like fun training.

He's always checking up on you and is constantly worried about hunters. Like your mental health and recovery is one thing but the fact you can't catch a break kills him.

Never bothered tho unproblematic boi as usual he wouldn't flinch at the sight of your scars or feets or wings

He do worry about them scars tho but he never gonna ask like he'd feel so rude.

[noodlepai]

(OKAY okay so I've come to provide more information on the AU, I'm still working on it a lot so things might change or be added but I got a basic idea of what things are like rn !!)

Info dump moment rn, also TW for slight trauma mentions/hints

• Sam had managed to save the Wii from melting itself all those years ago, and is a pretty big person on tech, so she likes to experiment and try new things, and actively tries to help Eteled out or transfer him through devices so he isn't just stuck in one place all the time, with lots of trial and tons of error, especially since she knows the Wii's getting old and that it can be unstable occasionally with glitches

• Kyle has also taken a liking to learning more about technology through Sam's influence so he sometimes comes over and they both will just study and brainstorm ideas

• Sam moved out of her home and now lives in her own apartment, is in college to pursue her dream of working around and creating technology, hasn't really considered making a job out of it since she mostly does it for fun and likes to achieve her dream goals, Nathan and Kyle also occasionally visit to just hang out and do whatever, usually resulting in the three staying up very late into a movie or game night, and Eteled having to talk Sam into getting sleep for the next morning

• Even though Sam is big on all tech, consoles and video games, she still has a soft spot for old generation consoles in particular

• Sam, Nathan and Kyle had all gotten pretty close growing up so they're like a dumbass trio /lh

• Will moved out of state or some shit

• Kyle wakes up from his villain arc and makes a truce with Eteled /J.. FR though Kyle softens up and becomes more understanding of Eteled's side after they start talking it out, while what happened did bother him at the time all those years ago, he just kinda grew up to the point where it didn't have such of an effect on him anymore, I mean all he saw was a Mii get slice and diced, no need to go beast mode over it, so they forgive each other of the past

• Kyle and Nathan are besties to homosexuals, homie love

• Sam made a Mii of herself from when she was younger to keep Eteled company when going out or having to attend school, Eteled appreciated it but wouldn't wanna admit how it wasn't the same and about how much he would miss Sam when she had to get off the Wii

• Gives Eteled abandonment issues because I love being evil

• He's actually clingy on the inside but would never admit it to anyone

• Also views Sam as a sort of daughter figure besides just a friend but is too nervous to mention it, he wants Sam to be safe, loves whenever she talks or rants to him about anything or shows him something she made or is proud of, or even just anything at all, father Eteled is proud of his child/bestie

• He like, genuinely feels loved around her and would definitely cry about it but would never show it, or at least try not to

• Eteled has the favorite Mii pants because Sam put them on him, with quote "I think it's about time my best friend gets to rock a new style", and yes it did make him almost cry on the spot

• Austin is like, mentally conflicted as hell

• Austin and Eteled both feel guilty for what they've done to each other over the years, aren't sure they can or are ready to forgive the other but they're very slowly learning to tolerate each other

• They're like enemies to kinda friends in a way

• They're traumatized mfs

• They still sometimes fight but it's usually just yelling or saying shit now, they don't do the chair, deletion or axe really anymore since they at least got to the point where they respect each other's boundaries and triggers, and there's no point to keep doing the same old for over 10+ years, for the most part, they still slip up sometimes

• They do fuck up though occasionally so that's why Eteled has scars and Austin is a bit more bashed up

• They still have a rooted dislike for each other they're trying to get over but they sometimes chill out or talk, usually when Sam is asleep or off the Wii for a while, the two just will maybe visit or sit around to at least try to understand the other better

• Sam knows Austin is still around, and it took a while but with time she grew to accept him when he didn't seem like a big threat anymore, and that he was just as important of a soul as Eteled was, she still didn't like the fights and didn't know the full story

• She'd probably section them away from the other with a child gate if she could

• Austin of course has an ego and would never tell another soul that he has many nightmares of the server room and about what happens if he gets caught off guard or is sleeping when Eteled decides to attack him again, Eteled wouldn't do that, and Austin knows it but it's just the deep rooted fear he can't get rid of, even though he's much taller and technically more powerful than the smaller Mii

• Eteled is just tired, usually just sleeps in the Mii channel, especially when under stress or tires himself out if he's going through a moment, like triggered memories or emotions

• From all the deleting and the chair, and more crap from his early life, Eteled is just terrified of it all so even the idea of them scares the fuck out of him, so as a natural response he just tries to defend himself with his axe even if he would be shaking like a chicken, he really tries not to pull it out but he can't always stop himself

• The axe itself would probably also bother Austin a bit, but he would still try to cautiously calm Eteled down since he knows he's just afraid, so afterwards they'd probably have to awkwardly apologize for what the fuck happened at that very moment

• Sam sometimes offers them both to play a game together with her, or plans on playing with Eteled and invites Austin along, as a way to make them bond, they do end up having some fun though

• Eteled has seen and/or been around or within newer Nintendo consoles, but personally prefers being in the Wii since he's used to it the most, and it's the most comfortable and homey to him

• Oh yeah, if Austin or Eteled is having an episode or is deeply upset then the other will try to help sometimes if it's really bad, Austin tries to hide it more but it doesn't always work, yeah they have reasonable reasons to not like the other, but they aren't complete assholes

• They both got trauma memories and aren't gonna just watch the other suffer through it

• Austin may or may not have taken in what Eteled had said all that time ago about "Learning to move past the past", even though that technically makes Eteled a hypocrite when he's constantly beating himself up about shit mentally, even after years, they are both doing it tbh

• Also Kyle doesn't know about Austin 100% but is curious to know his story and who he is and used to be, and how he got in the Wii, especially after the passing of his family member of the same name, little does he know..

• Sam also doesn't know about any of it, neither Sam or Kyle know of what happened or Austin's story, Austin being in a tight spot since he doesn't wanna reveal his identity yet, knowing the possible reaction, for Eteled's sake, Sam's and especially Kyle's, and Eteled being absolutely fucking terrified since the fear of losing someone like Sam could become real, and the small but growing friendship he was slowly making with Kyle could go right back to hatred and wanting the small Mii deleted, not including the fact that he still eats at himself for his past actions so it being brought back up again would be a ✨mess✨

• Austin doesn't know if he forgives Eteled or not, but wants to try to move past it and not be reminded in any way

• Nathan is still a little lowkey scared of Eteled ngl, doesn't wanna upset him or anything and Eteled can tell, he probably sighs to himself but he can't blame the guy

• Kyle has thought about making another Mii of himself on what is now long been Sam's Wii, now that he's older and him and Eteled are rather chill, but decided against it since he wasn't sure, not because he didn't trust Eteled, but because he figured it could potentially remind the Mii of the past, so whenever he plays on it he just uses Eteled

(That's all I can really recall on the top of my head for now, whenever I remember more or add on things I'll probably make a new post about it)

[tirednerd2012]

I haven't heard you say anything yet and I need to know your opinion on the Jonathan and Will scene in vol 2.

Okay so I've seen mixed reviews about it, but I'm not going to lie to you... I actually really enjoyed it. I literally cried.

For those who didn't like it because Will didn't come out directly, we have to understand that Will is still only like 14-15 right now and he's figuring himself out. This is also in a time where this stuff was not talked about and if it was, in wasn't always in a good light. And he spent a majority of his life in Hawkins, IN, a small town in a red state. We see this fear with Robin, too, who came out to Steve but is scared to come out to someone else because if the wrong person finds out, that's it.

So, he's lived in this new town for 8 months and he's figuring out a lot of shit. Will is a character with trauma. He has a lot to unpack and he's away from his friends, and a big part of his support system. He also is watching out for El, another character with a ton of TRAUMA. He's got a lot going on, and all of the emotions of everything are overwhelming. I don't think he's ready to come out yet. And Jonathan knew that.

I think Jonathan knows Will is gay. He's the person who has been a constant in his little brother's life and if there is one person Jonathan knows, it's Will. He knew something was going on back at the rollerrink. And back in the van when Will was talking, Jonathan knew there was deeper meaning behind what he was saying. He also knew El did not have Will make that painting.

But Will calls himself a mistake. And it kills Jonathan because, at the very least in his eyes, Will is the best person in the world. Even if Will wasn't ready to come out, and Jonathan isn't the type of character to force it, he has to let Will know he's not a mistake, but he also can't directly say it because he risks Will shutting down. So he just emphasizes how much he loves him and how nothing would ever change that. He also tells Will that him smoking is not because of anything Will is doing, it's just him running away from his problems. He doesn't want Will to think that he is doing something wrong that is pushing Jonathan away.

Will is going to come out in his own time, but he's had his safety net reestablished. Jonathan and Joyce have been his only consistent safe places and they've both been dealing with their own things. Joyce with work and now raising another child who has a lot to learn and Jonathan is running away from his problems by smoking. While none of it was because of Will, he felt he was losing them and I'm glad Jonathan reminded Will that he would always be there. It's setting the story up for a more authentic and meaningful conversation among the two brothers where Will is going to tell Jonathan the truth and have a sense of security that Jonathan is still going to love him regardless. Jonathan wasn't forcing the conversation because Will feeling safe was the most important thing.

11-20 for Emma Beck & Peter Parker

YESSS MY LOVES

11. Do either try to hide their emotions if upset? Can the other still tell?

Peter definitely does. Emma knows him too well for him to be able to hide his emotions completely, so the truth usually comes out one way or another. Emma doesn't necessarily hide her emotions so much as dance around them.

12. Do they have many heated arguments? How do they smooth things over?

The first year after Emma learns Peter's secret identity are filled with tons of heated arguments, especially about each other's safety. Most of the time they buy each other a pizza and rent a movie to watch as an apology.

13. Who’s the bigger tease?

Peter. I can't explain it, I just know.

14. How do their personalities compliment each other? How do they clash?

Both Peter and Emma are workaholics who throw themselves into whatever they're doing with everything they've got, both are super willing to get involved in the justice system but not through traditional means, both care about the people they love, I think they mostly clash in terms of how to deal with trauma and when the other calls them out.

15. Do they always say 'i love you' before leaving?

Once they're together? 100%. When they leave the apartment, when they hang up on the phone, when they pass each other in the street, when they part ways after dates, when they go on missions, they love to say "I love you".

16. Can they stay up all night just talking?

Yep. Especially about their respective hyperfixations. Peter talks endlessly about physics and science while Emma dazzles him with journalism facts and the newest story she's pursuing.

17. Who's more likely to pull the other in by the waist and kiss them passionately?

Peter. 100%. He pulls the same move he did with Gwen and literally webs her closer to him.

18. How likely are they to have fur babies? How many and what kind?

Once they officially move into a bigger apartment together, they definitely adopt like a medium sized dog or cat but it probably doesn't go much further than that.

19. How do they feel about PDA?

They're not super into a ton of PDA, but they love to hold hands and hug in public. Maybe a few cheek kisses.

20. Choose one song that perfectly describes their relationship.

I mean...It's Chemicals React by Aly and AJ. "You make me feel out of my element" "Both of us broken, caught in the moment" it's just perfect for them

8 Untold Signs Of Narcissist People

Sometimes the signs of narcissism aren't so obvious and narcissists fly under our radar. Not every narcissist may be a puffed-up addict or a Mean Girl like Regina George. If they were, we could see the signs from a mile away and steer clear. No, many narcissists are sensitive, thoughtful, and generous – until the charade wears off, of course.

That's why it's so important to know the subtle signs of narcissism that you simply won't notice until it's too late and they've sucked you into their region.

What's the Difference Between an Overt and Covert Narcissist?

Many people tend to consider narcissists as having extroverted personalities. They're flamboyant and demand to be the middle of attention – how are you able to miss them?

The truth is, introverts also can be narcissists. These are those who fool us into their web of manipulation.

"They're not self-absorbed – they're just sensitive!"

"They're not a nasty friend – they're just misunderstood!"

After forming a relationship with a covert narcissist, you realize that this sensitivity and isolation were, in fact, signs of narcissism. Since the signs weren't so obvious, however, you completely misjudged things.

8 Signs of Narcissism You Can't-Miss

Since the covert narcissist is best at hiding their abusive behavior, it's important to know the subtle cues that give them away.

1. They'll Never Utter the Phrase "I Don't Know"

I once knew a narcissist who was so averse to the present phrase that he would rather give someone dangerously incorrect answers than admit to not knowing something. He was confident in his woefully wrong answers, too.

Why do this?

Answering an issue with "I don't know" deprives the narcissist of important attention. The person seeking a solution will simply advance to somebody else who might help them. That's an enormous ego hit.

That's why you'll often find narcissists rambling on about topics they need no business speaking on.

2. They Are A Nasty Friend

The narcissist is usually a nasty friend but you'll typically find them playing the victim. confirm to urge all sides of the story if you're unsure.

What are some red flag signs of narcissism that indicate the suspect may be a narcissist?

• They get irritated when their friends invite help or advice.

• They don't bother to call or text their friends on birthdays or holidays.

• They don't return borrowed items. (A sign of entitlement.)

• They owe their friends money. they'll downplay this as "not an enormous deal."

• They embarrass their friends ahead of others.

• They hunt down or entertain their friends' partners or love interests.

They also treat waitstaff or service workers poorly. This is a dead giveaway. run the hills. Anyone who disrespects waitstaff or service workers views people as "beneath" them. Soon, you'll be a part of the inferiors also.

3. They Need To Insert Themselves Into Every Story

A covert narcissist might not demand everyone's attention. They will, however, still find how to form everything about them. an outsized part of this strategy involves inserting themselves into every story.

Is a coworker talking about their experience with homelessness? The narcissist, too, features a story about being poor.

Is a lover talking about his amazing trip to Vietnam? The narcissist also had a friend who visited Vietnam. And guess what? She heard it wasn't so great.

No matter the subject, the narcissist features a remarkable skill for turning the eye their way – regardless of how innocuous it'd seem.

4. They're Sensitive

At first, you'll appreciate their ability to freely express emotions. this is often an excellent tactic narcissists use to lure empathetic people into their trap.

Maybe a fast-food worker got their order wrong and therefore the narcissist hasn't shut up about it all day. Maybe their boss asked them to prevent playing on their phone such a lot and now the narcissist is crying about it over dinner.

As time goes on, you'll realize that the narcissist isn't vulnerable and sensitive: their fragile ego can't handle honest mistakes and valid criticism. To the narcissist, these are personal attacks.

5. They Form Relationships Based On What Someone Can "Do for Them"

If you're at a celebration and therefore the suspected narcissist suggests you ask someone because they will help together with your career or financial situation, don't ignore it. They aren't trying to assist you: they're letting you in on their game.

Narcissists tend to make shallow friendships that supported what people can do for them. You'll often find narcissists make friends with horribly toxic people simply because these folks have money, own bars, or offers career opportunities.

6. Their Stories Don't Match Reality

Both the overt and covert narcissist has an inflated sense of self. The thing is, they believe their lies. As a result, you'll often find they recall stories much differently than the situations played out.

If you notice that the suspect constantly reframes stories to form themselves the hero or victim, retreat fast – this is often one among the various signs of narcissism. By changing the story to suit their narrative, the narcissist is gaslighting everyone else involved.

It's not cute or funny to constantly need to correct them. Sooner or later, they'll start gaslighting you, too.

7. They Observe and Judge

"There's no way she will be a narcissist. When we're out with friends, she barely says ten words!"

I hear it all the time. By sitting back and observing everyone, however, the covert narcissist is silently taking notes and judging. I'm sure you heard all about her observations on the car ride home.

The narcissist must feel superior to everyone around them. this is often easy to try to do once you don't open your mouth to interact in conversation and instead sit back to require notes about everyone's shortcomings.

8. They Only Hear Bits and Pieces of Your Stories

Does it desire the suspected narcissist just isn't. listening? They're probably not. And if they're, they don't care.

Maybe you spent ten minutes venting to your mother about how you didn't get that promotion at work because you showed up late one solitary time with a legitimate reason. How did she respond? "Well, maybe you'll remember to point out up on time from now on."

You can't be the victim. Only the narcissist is often the victim.

You see this ton with narcissist parents or partners who listen only enough to toss stuff back in your face later.

How to Turn the Tables on a Narcissist?

Perhaps you've gone on a couple of dates with someone or a replacement coworker joined your team. you think they'll be a narcissist but you aren't entirely sure.

After all, the covert narcissist is especially cunning at hiding the more obvious signs of narcissism. Here's the way to turn the tables on a narcissist and obtain them to show themselves.

• Play along. Don't give the suspected narcissist room to regulate their manipulation tactics – play stupid and pretend you completely believe them. Use this chance to document their behavior.

• Remain indifferent. If you want to continue handling an overt or covert narcissist for reasons out of your control, act indifferent to their behavior. The narcissist wants to use your emotions against you. If you don't give them anything to figure with, they'll seek their fix elsewhere.

• Find Support: this might only include one or two people you trust. open up to someone who will validate and believe you.

At the top of the day, the sole thanks to truly turn the tables on a narcissist are to chop them off completely. If that they had any real intentions of adjusting, they might have done so already.

The narcissist won't suddenly see things your way. If they ever do, it's – a) for a fleeting moment and b) to use against you later. Don't believe the conflicting information you would possibly see from other websites or therapists – the narcissist will never change.

With a mental disease, a chemical imbalance within the brain may cause different disturbances that manifest as depression, anxiety, and lots of others. Although complex, mental illnesses tend to reply well to medication because it targets the physical root of the problem: like a chemical imbalance. Though it's been determined that a lot of mental illnesses like depression and anxiety are frequently caused by unresolved emotional trauma, often dating as far back as childhood.

Personality disorders occur due to a repetitive stimuli-reward environment. At some point in their life, the narcissist realized they might elicit specific reactions and emotions from people – and it felt good and helped them achieve their self-fulfilling agendas.

Anything but cutting them out of your life will offer you a mental and emotional breakdown.

No Contact is that the Only Way to Packing Up A Narcissist

Many narcissists have always been this manner – whilst far back as their teenage or childhood years. If you're handling a narcissist, you can't and will not expect them to vary their behavior now or ever.

Treatment for personality disorders often involves things like cognitive behavioral therapy. In many cases, a narcissist can also suffer from other mental illnesses like depression or substance use disorder. (You've probably heard extensively about these problems, too, when the narcissist needs your sympathy or someone responsible .)

ىDespite this, there's little evidence to suggest therapy works for narcissists as personality disorders are notoriously difficult to treat. the primary step to getting assistance is to admit a drag exists – the narcissist will never believe they need or are a drag.

No Contact is that the only option.

Trust in yourself and your network. Because once you get to the opposite side and stick with No Contact, you'll be amazed by all the amazing belongings you can accomplish.
