so uhhh how is everyone currently <:))
Jerry looks around and shrugs, "Guess I'll answer this one."
He holds up one finger, "Lanolin is crying in her room."
A second, "The machine shop crew, the Chaotix and Blaze are cheering up Kit by helping him create a war crime."
A third, "Surge is beating the absolute shit out of Tangle and Whisper for making Lanolin cry."
A fourth, "And finally, here in the infirmary we're trying to stop Amy from stopping Surge. Chelydri says it's good they're getting this out of the way instead of letting it fester."
*sounds of struggling offscreen*
"LET ME GO! I HAVE TO STOP THEM!"
"DAMMIT LISTEN TO ME! YOU GOTTA LET THIS RESOLVE OR IT WILL NEVER HEAL PROPERLY!"
"HOW IS SHE SO STRONG?!"
"GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE AND HELP, JERRY!"
He sighs and trudges over.

I haven't read any of ASC, but I've been thinking about this AUwhere Nightheart is the kit of Lionblaze and the spitting image of Hollyleaf.
Make his struggles being not orange being tied to his half (well i guess quarter) clan heritage (I know it's used a lot but here me out)
Your dad's this big, important senior warrior, well respected, but he can't even look at you for too long cuz you look so much like his dead sister. He's also this big hulking mass of a warrior, but you've got a skinny little body that screams WindClan blood.
And your uncle is the clans med cat, but every time he treats you, his paws shake, and every time you ask about your aunt, his sharp tongue gets even sharper.
Have older ThunderClan cats who knew that Hollyleaf killed Ashfur whisper behind his back about how they wished he had been born a year or two earlier. How he's such a spitting image of Hollyleaf that surely he could take Ashfur down.
And even after, while the clans try to settle down, the tension and stigma around codebreakers still simmers in the air. And here's this ThunderClan cat who looks like he's Breezepelt's kid instead of Lionblaze's.
Nightheart who just wants to be a part of his clan but can't shake the feeling that he's an outcast. His dad looks at him with sadness and grief in his eyes. His clanmates who spin wild stories and tales about how Hollyleaf seemingly died and then came back. Nightheart who actually experiences being compared to other cats who look like him, specifically cats who are still alive, and being told he could do all of these great things.
Nightheart who alientates himself and believes no one knows what he's going through, when his mother, Cinderheart, was seemingly/rumoured to be possessed by a cat she looks similair to, was named after, and suffered a similair injury to.
Nightheart who flees his clan because of this, but then realizes his aunt Hollyleaf did the same thing. ThunderClan thought she was dead. ThunderClan must think he's dead. Hollyleaf came back and took down an evil that threatened StarClan.
i dont know where else to go from here but nightheart could be cool if the erins could just break away from their favorite toxic couple's bloodline pls. and explore cross clan relationships beyond just the two lovers and their immediate offspring

From The Kerala Story to Zara Hatke Zara Bachke: 5 films of 2023 that haven’t arrived on OTT yet
Films like The Kerala Story and Zara Hatke Zara Bachke attained success at the box office but have still not arrived on any streaming platform yet.
The arrival of OTT happened in India almost a decade back. But the rise in watching online content boomed from 2020 onwards as the cinema halls were shut during that time to combat COVID-19 pandemic. Even after the cinema halls opened and started running to packed capacity, a section of the audience has been eagerly awaiting the release of some films on OTT. Every noteworthy film has been arriving on OTT eight weeks after its release. But there are some films who haven’t arrived on streaming platforms even months after their theatrical release.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The subject of this Rajkumar Santoshi directorial was enough to generate interest – Mahatma Gandhi and his killer Nathuram Godse having a debate over their respective ideologies. However, it literally went unnoticed at the box office because of an absence of a big star and, more importantly, the makers deciding to release it alongside Shah Rukh Khan’s biggie Pathaan, which became a runaway blockbuster. But there is enough interest in the film because, as mentioned above, for its subject. Surprisingly, there is no news about its OTT release yet.
The Kerala Story
Tumblr media
The Sudipto Sen directorial is the biggest surprise on this list. Starring Adah Sharma, Yogita Bihani, Siddhi Idnani, Sonia Balani, the movie told the story of young girls being lured into relationships by evil men in order to get them converted to Islam. Despite not a single big star associated with it, it went onto earn a mammoth Rs. 242.20 crores. Hence, it remains a mystery as to why it hasn’t arrived on OTT yet.
Zara Hatke Zara Bachke
Tumblr media
This is another major surprise on the list. The Vicky Kaushal and Sara Ali Khan starrer looked like an OTT film but the makers released it in theatres. It became a surprise hit of the year as it went onto earn a very impressive Rs. 88 crores at the box office. Despite it being over six months since the film released in theatres, it still hasn’t got a release on any streaming platform as yet.
The Lady Killer
Tumblr media
Directed by Ajay Bahl, the film had decent face value because of its lead cast of Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar. But The Lady Killer got a tiny release in theatres and that too without any publicity and promotions. Normally, this happens when the makers are more interested in its OTT release. However, three months after its miniscule release, the film hasn’t arrived on streaming yet.
Ganapath – A Hero Is Born
Tumblr media
Filmmaker Vikas Bahl’s movie was in the news for it being a rare Bollywood movie to have a dystopian theme. It also had known actors like Tiger Shroff, Kriti Sanon and Amitabh Bachchan in pivotal roles. However, Ganapath – A Hero Is Born just bombed at the box office. More than three months after its theatrical release, it still hasn’t arrived on OTT. This is a surprise considering the popularity of its cast.

Oracle!Tim has a wheelchair, but hates using it. He loudly insists he doesn’t need to when almost anyone suggests it. He can get around just fine on crutches, and it’s bad enough the way people treat him like that; he refuses to have them literally looking down on him.
Except, see, the thing is… he does need it. By the end of the day navigating on his crutches, Tim hurts. His back is screaming from the shoulders down, his spine feels almost swollen with how it takes over his senses (burning, throbbing, every click & grind of bone like having a knife wedged between the vertebrae,) the skin on his legs feels like it’s trying to crawl off his body, and there’s sharp needles of pain shooting through his leg muscles. If Tim spends the day on his feet/moving around a lot on his crutches, he’s going to spend the next 3 nights trying to be Oracle while flat on his back on the floor. (Tim does try to get around this by having wheelie chairs in all his offices and just not walking around much, but if the weather turns cold or a big storm blows in, even that won’t help.)
He gets better about it over time. Cass drags Tim into helping with her specific charity work, helping other disabled kids in Gotham. Tim ends up giving interviews in which he talks about being an ambulatory wheelchair user, how he’s treated when he goes out in the chair, how people act like it’s all a horrible lie if they ever see him get up from it, and how it combines with Tim’s own pride & internalized ableism to lead to him gritting his teeth and just pushing through. “It’s not worth it,” he tells Vicki Vale, a rueful smile on his face. “It’s never worth it, to go home and lay on the floor in too much pain to move, just so the people at the grocery store don’t see me in my chair. But I do it anyway, and I’m probably going to keep doing it… so if you see me out in public, please ask me if I’m being stupid, because there’s a good chance the answer is yes.” People laugh. Vicki calls him brave for talking about it. Tim says if he can raise just a little attention, make people a little more aware of how they treat people in (and out) of wheelchairs, he’ll have done something good.
Then he goes home. Lays on the floor. And tries not to cry while one of his loved ones rubs tiger balm into his back, because no, people don’t understand, it fucking hurts.

I will say, having personally just gone through all of the various Robins' official first patrols to write a fic, Robins is particularly irritating as it doesn't even bother to actually pick out the correct 'first patrols' for various characters.
Because a first patrol is not the character's initial story; it's the first time they're allowed out as Robin, wearing their own costume. It's not Zucco for Dick and Ma Gunn for Jason and ALPOD for Tim and Batman and Son or Battle for the Cowl for Damian. It's about Bruce thinking they're ready to patrol with him.
Yes, good job, you identified Batman Chronicles: The Gauntlet for Dick and have based this story off that concept. Except:
For post-Crisis Jason, his first patrol as Robin was actually tracking down Two-Face in Batman #410 & 411, in which he finds out that Willis Todd was a Two-Face henchman. It's not Felipe Garzonas. That's Batman #424-425 and Jason's last storyline before A Death in the Family. If you want Garzonas to be Jason's first patrol, then his time as Robin was even shorter than I like to say it was. He's out there beating Steph in terms of 'it was measured in days'.
For Tim: look there are like three separate options for pitching a 'first patrol'. You can go with Batman: Identity Crisis (Batman #455-457) where Tim tracks down Bruce and Vicky Vale after they've been kidnapped by Scarecrow, and received his own costume at the end of it; you can go with Robin I and Tim's adventures in Paris with Clyde Rawlins, Shiva and King Snake; or you can go with Batman #465, Debut, where Tim and Bruce explicitly have their first patrol together and track down Ginny Gray trying to shoot an actor at a charity event.
What does Seeley go for? Weirdly mashing up Rite of Passage with Batman: Identity Crisis rather than actually focusing on one or the other. He also randomly gives a name to the Obeah Man.
For Steph there simply isn't that much material as Robin (which is why you'll see I actually picked what I think is Steph and Bruce's first patrol together, rather than their time as Batman & Robin). I'd actually probably pick out Tiger Moth over Scarab for Steph patrolling with Bruce as Robin as a 'first patrol' in Robin #127 if you twisted my arm, but Scarab is certainly where Bruce once again decided that Steph did not live up to expectations in Robin #128.
For Damian: realistically again his first patrol as ROBIN is with Dick in Batman & Robin #1 2009 (so Professor Pyg). His first with Bruce is Batman & Robin #1 2011 (and NoBody). Anything prior to the conclusion of Battle For the Cowl/Red Robin #1 should not count, just as ALPOD or all of Tim's time as Little Bat doesn't count. Batman & Son is absolutely not Damian's 'gauntlet', and this analysis misses slight factors like I dunno, poor dead Spook?
"Was that a moment of mercy?" Well I dunno Seeley, but given that only a couple of pages earlier Damian cut off the Spook's head, brought it back to the Cave, shoved a grenade into the mouth and then waved it at Tim to frighten him (before accidentally dropping the head, the grenade pin falling out, and blowing up): discussions of mercy in this title are bit ridiculous if you ignore that aspect.

Guess who did retail therapy today 🛍️✨
Well, after devouring a delicious cheddar cheeseburger with fries at a local restaurant, I decided to swing by a fair. And by chance there was a booth from my trusted comic store! I asked if they had any Wolverine comics, but unfortunately, they didn't. However, they offered me this one about Jean Grey, and I enthusiastically said YES (I knew Vic and Old Man Logan make an appearance in it 🥺)

BONUS TRACK: Neurodivergent time!!
I also bought a tiger eye pendant bc I am a huge crystal lover and curiously I never had one in my collection 👀 It's absolutely stunning in person, you can see a reflection of light inside depending on the angle. There are people who say that it is a stone that grants vitality and reinforces self-confidence. Completely Sabes vibes <3

Lucy Manhattan nee Santangelo Headcanons
(by extension the Manhattans lol)
Lucy and Jack are highschool sweethearts. Lucy was the IT girl of the 80s, cheerleading captain and valedictorian. I think it is a nightmare situation of prom night pregnancy. This super genuine and childish love for one another that is suddenly forced to grow up. They are married the summer after graduation.
Lucy still graduated as valedictorian, gave her speech with confidence and announced her intention to go to law school with a smile. Jack joined the academy, I think he likely wasn't confident in his future and ended up falling into what their parents pushed for. Something stable and easy.
Lucy supported Jack as he got further and further into this new role, going from low tier cop to high tier wild card detective.
The beginning of their marriage is good, they are thankful to have one another. They struggle through Johnny's first year of life, but they both lived with one of their parents until they could afford an apartment. Vickie comes around soon after Johnny.
But then Jack gets busier. He gets this new partner.
Through it all there is Lucy, taking night classes to finish her law degree. She goes from receptionist, to paralegal, to lawyer.
Cosmo and Lucy become good friends actually, they get brunch together to cope with the grey hairs that Jack is giving them. Cosmo is a wonderful uncle to the kids.
Then Lucy gets kidnapped.
She starts training in self defense around it. Gets the kids into baby self-defense courses.
Then her babies get kidnapped for the first time. I like the idea that this would be her girlpower movie moment. Cosmo kicks in the door (Jack chasing after the main antagonist), to see Lucy already tying up her guards, hair in perfect place. Johnny is holding her hand, Vickie in her arms after. - Tiger Mom vibes.
Their marriage was on the rocks for a while.
But it was only after Cosmo ended his partnership with Jack that their fights got worse and Jack hid further into work. Took more risks. Johnny had taken off, got into some shit. Vickie had to watch up close.
Jack didn't even show up at Cosmo's funeral, likely drinking himself away. So it had been Lucy, Johnny, and Vickie, side by side in matching all black.
I think in such a sad way. Cosmo was what kept their marriage together for so long. He was the one that reminded her of how much Jack loved her. Then he took off. And it got harder. All her friends told her to leave. Vickie told her to leave. Then Cosmo died and Jack went fully off the rails.
In my heart, she cried when she got the papers made. She wept as she tried to explain why they needed to let each other go.
I would like to note that Lucy ran the fuck out of Jack when he was actually in the same room as her, the issue was how rarely he was around her in the end.
She moved cross country both to escape Jack Manhattan's legacy and to give herself room to breathe.
He never signed the papers and ended up in Her City.
She still loves him, but she has become so Aware of what their marriage is. Because this is an 80s movie, she ends up with him, he does a grand showing (like saving Johnny) and the movie wants us to forget that she was trying to move on.
BUT NOT ME.
I want her to have a girlfriend who treats her right. <3

Lovin’ Touchin’ Squeezin’
Tumblr media
Soooo since I’m in a bit of an emotional drought right now (just dealing with some personal stuff) I decided to share a snippet of a story I had been working on and that’s been sitting in my drafts for 2 years since ST came out 😂😂😂 Some Steve x Reader x Eddie because they’re in a love triangle. If you want it continued let me know. 🤷🏻‍♀️😅
You hurried into the gym for the weekly pep rally for the Hawkins Tigers football team. Each grade was in the bleachers, ready to cheer on their team. It was a good way to boost morale and get out of last period a few minutes early. The band always played pep music in the stands during football games before and after preforming the half time show. You had to be at the game tonight as you were a member of the marching band.
During marching season, you were a Majorette—wearing the cute uniform and twirling the sticks as your best friend Eddie Munson teased you. You imagined Eddie would be skipping the pep rally as he could care less about sports. He would much rather invest his time in his Hellfire Club, selling drugs occasionally, or playing with his band at the Hideout.
“Ready for tonight?”, Robin asked loudly over the crowd.
Robin was a good friend and fellow band geek, the term most people referred to members of the band as. She was one of your only girlfriends.
“Definitely.”, you smiled as you grabbed your batons.
The Drum Major counted off each pep song, you doing your routines to each song as the band continued to play, the football team parading around, hyping up your classmates. You scanned the crowd to see if there was any sign of Eddie. There wasn’t. You did see Dustin Henderson and Mike Wheeler, freshman members of his Hellfire Club. The band would end with the fight song. After that, it would be decided which grade would win the spirit stick. You were brought out of your daze when the Drum Major counted off the fight song, beginning to twirl. It was muscle memory.
It had became second nature to you. You had been doing it since freshman year. The senior class of 1986 won the spirt stick, causing you, Robin, and the other band seniors to be quite thrilled. Robin was crushing madly on your fellow band member, Vickie. It was a big step up from Tammy Thompson. The pep rally ended, dismissing all grades from the gymnasium. You picked up your batons and met up with Robin before you both walked back to the band room.
“Eddie miss the pep rally?”, Robin asked as she brushed through her short hair.
“Apparently. He’s not into that, Robin.”, you smirked.
She snorted playfully. You all had about two hours to grab something to eat and be ready to rehearse tonight’s marching band show and the pep band music. After the games, Eddie would pick you up and take you home. You were surprised he would even come to the school long enough to do that. You and Robin grabbed lunch together as always, her rambling on about Vickie.
“Did you see how cute she looked today?”, Robin sighed, stirring the fry in her ketchup.
You smirked. “I’m not the best judge of that.”, you chuckled.
It was cute to see Robin so flustered and worked up over her crush. You could understand. You had secretly been crushing on Eddie for a while, however, he never seemed to reciprocate the feelings. You’d sometimes try and flirt a little here or there, but Eddie would brush it off with a laugh. You’d never admit to flirting with Eddie. You didn’t want to ruin your friendship if he didn’t feel the same.
The other day had really almost done you in. Dustin and Mike were talking about some cute freshman cheerleaders. It was harmless or so you thought. However, Eddie’s words rang in your head and ever since, you couldn’t get them out no matter how hard you tried. “What I’d do to have one night with that.” The worlds he used as Chrissy Cunningham passed by. Your heart sank deep in your chest, quickly realizing you didn’t have a chance with Eddie. He was more into the blonde, cheerleader type.
Before you could turn around, it was time to get dressed in your uniform and prepare to march to the stadium. It was the thing you all always did on Friday nights. Your uniform was a short one piece leotard with your school colors: green, gold, and white. Robin always told you how cute you looked and any boy would be lucky to date you, however, there was just one boy you wanted—Eddie Munson.
The night went on, you going through the motions. It was time for the half time show. Robin smiled at you as her friend and former student at Hawkins High, Steve Harrington came over to chat. He was most of the girls dream when he was in school. He had the perfect hair, played sports, and reeked of confidence. Robin assured you, however, he was just a “dingus”. It was time to go on, each of you taking your correct spot on the field. The Drum Major counted off, you smiling with your pearly whites.
Your movements came natural, remembering and performing each move with grace. You felt all the eyes on you. Little did you know, the eyes you found most important were on you too. He was just under the bleachers, peeping out just enough to see you with a cigarette hanging lazily out of his mouth. He took a puff of it, watching you in that tight little skirt. If you only knew how he felt and what he thought about.
You ended the performance, striking the last pose perfectly. The home crowd cheered before the Drum Major counted off once more, allowing you all to march off and exit the field. You went back into the stands, preparing to take a break for the third quarter.
“Steve!”, you heard Robin shout, instantly catching your attention.
“You did great out there.”, he encouraged her.
“Y/N, come here.”, she eyed you.
You reluctantly stepped up a couple bleachers, almost tripping and falling, Steve catching you easily, making eye contact with you, smiling at you.
“Y/N, you know Steve Harrington.”
“I do.”, you smiled easily.
“Steve, you know Y/N.”
“Yeah, you were a sophomore when I was a senior, right?”
You nodded. “Yeah, thanks for catching me.”, you laughed nervously.
“It’s not a problem, just be careful. Wouldn’t want a pretty girl like you to get hurt.”
Robin shot him a disgusted look. “Steve, was that supposed to be a pick up line?”
Steve blushed before running a hand through his hair. “Was it that bad?”
You giggled easily. “I appreciate it, Steve. Really.”
His smiled remained, becoming softer and almost serious. “Are you doing anything tomorrow night?”
“I’m sorry?”, you asked, almost nervously laughing.
Steve laughed nervously in response, shoving his hands in the pockets of his old letterman jacket. “Are you doing anything tomorrow night?”, he repeated.
“Oh no—no plans.”, you smiled, finally realizing he was trying to ask you out.
“Would you maybe wanna do something?”
Robin watched, mouth gaped open before it turned into a smile. Before the whole Chrissy comment, you wouldn’t have really considered going on a date with anyone else. But that had changed your whole perspective.
“Sounds good. Robin can give me your number.”, you smiled.
There was a chill in the fall wind, causing you to shiver slightly. Your outfit was short and skimpy. You rubbed your arms as if that would conduct a little electricity to warm you up.
“Here.”, Steve said as he shed his jacket, holding it out for you to wrap up in.
You eyed Robin, carefully obliging, letting Steve help you into his jacket. It was significantly bigger than you, but you instantly felt warmer and were no longer shivering. Robin smirked at you as you turned back to face her and Steve. Little did you know, other eyes were watching this unfold—Eddie Munson.
“Thanks, Steve. You didn’t have to do this.”, you blushed at him.
“Really, I don’t mind. It looks good on you.”
If Robin could have gagged, she would have. Steve was one of her best friends—if not her best friend but even his bad pick up lines were hard to watch. Somehow, he was managing to sail right through. You all made small talk as the third quarter clock counted down, Robin and you both taking your respective places back in the stands. The band continued to play pep music, Hawkins was winning against its rival.
The fourth quarter passed quickly, leaving just a few minutes on the clock. As the football team ran the field, the clock counted down further. Hawkins had the ball, the quarterback running for the field goal. Everyone was cheering loudly in anticipation of another touchdown. The quarterback passed the colored goal line, Hawkins side of the stadium cheering as the band counted off the fight song.
You watched the time fade from the fourth quarter, the game ending. Hawkins had won. The band began packing everything up to take it back to the high school. Steve walked behind the band, eager to continue talking to you and Robin. Members of the band were busy packing everything up. You finished up a few minutes early, noticing Steve was waiting to talk to you. Maybe this was how things were supposed to be.
“Hey.”, Steve breathed easily.
“Hey.”, you smiled.
“So tomorrow, right?”
“Tomorrow, for sure.”
Steve smiled, taking a hand through his hair. “I wrote my number down.”
You took the piece of paper, smiling. “Thank you, Steve. I’ll call you tomorrow. I promise.”
“Sounds good, you got a ride home?”
“I do. Oh! Let me give you your jacket back.”, you went to slide it off.
“No, no. It’s too cold. Keep it”, Steve insisted.
You smiled, knowing what it meant when a guy gave a girl his letterman jacket.
“Are you sure?”
“Positive.”, Steve smiled.
Steve held his arms out, offering you an embrace. You allowed him to take you into his arms. The scent of his cologne off his jacket and himself hit your nose. It almost made you weak in your knees. You both pulled back, staring into each other’s eyes. The chemistry was there.
“Hey—time to go home.”, Robin interrupted you both.
Steve usually gave Robin a ride. Eddie give you a ride. It was just how thing were going,
“I’ll talk to you tomorrow, Y/N.”, Steve smiled.
“Okay, be careful Steve.”
“You too, Y/N.”
Robin and Steve exited the school, you not far behind. You immediately saw Eddie’s van parked out front. You walked in the cool fall air to his van, hearing him unlock the door as you approached. Eddie immediately eyed you up and down as you sat down in the seat.
“How was the game?”, he almost deadpanned.
“It was fine, we won.”, you smiled.
Eddie nodded, keeping his eyes on the road. “So I take it you don’t need my leather jacket?”
His voice was laced with jealousy—or at least you thought it was. His knuckles had a tight grip on the steering wheel. His brown eyes finally looked over at you, flipping back between the road and you.
“Not tonight.”
He chuckled. “You’re wearing Harrington’s jacket.”
“How do you know it’s Steve’s jacket?”
“His name is across the back.”, Eddie responded back, taking one finger across the back of it. You felt his finger trace along your back, sending chills down your spine.
“He saw I was cold and gave it to me.”
Eddie rolled his eyes, trying to be playful. “Okay, a guy doesn’t just give a girl his letterman jacket if he doesn’t want to get serious with her.”
“It’s going to be one date.”
The smile faded from Eddie’s lips almost immediately. “So you agreed to a date? With Harrington?”
“I don’t see what the big deal is.”, you crossed your arms, leaning back into the seat.
Eddie laughed sarcastically. “He was the biggest douche in high school. Like he thought he’s God’s gift to women. Did you not learn anything from Wheeler’s mistake?”
If you didn’t know any better, you would have thought Eddie was becoming jealous. He was trying to play it off and be funny, but there was something else laced in his words. You looked out the window as Eddie drove through the heavy traffic leaving the high school. It was one of the many pains in his ass when he picked you up from the games. But he was willing to do it for you.
“Maybe he’s changed. He’s been graduated two years now.”, you defended, looking back at Eddie.
Eddie huffed in response before laughing sarcastically. “Guys like Harrington don’t change, sweetheart.”
You rolled your eyes at Eddie’s response, feeling yourself becoming increasingly agitated. He was really one to talk considering he had made that statement about Chrissy. You were holding back saying anything about her.
“You don’t know that, Eddie.”

thinking about how ronance should play out in st5 again!
okay so hear me out... robin and vickie have a little moment and like they kiss.. but robin makes it all awkward and realizes that maybe she doesn't have feelings for vickie anymore and pulls away and is like "shit im sorry"!!!!
and then vickie just laughs it off and quickly scrambles away... giving robin a moment to process her feelings. and then like like next scene or interaction with nancy she like very obviously registers it and yaps to steve about it and steve is obviously very put down but not that bad because he wants his best friend to be happy! and he gives her such a like pep talk and like idk and hes like "go get em tiger" and robins like "never say that again.. 😟" and then like yeah! robin has a yap session with nancy and then they kiss and live happily ever after!!!

Your Top 10 lis
With some character analysis below, in no particular order (more so in the order my phone decided to put).

Reading from left to right:
WALTER
For me he's the best green flag and Wincy is one of the authors who can write green flags very well. He's kinda the opposite of Vyxaria, but their dynamic blends so well. You can tell he likes it when Vyxaria is roasting him but then can diffuse her without even her realising it lol. The Siren part of his character keeps on giving. His identity began as a mystery when he hypnotized Tiger, the tension kept building and finally there was the revelation, alongside Isolde being his mom. Him and Cynthia being two separate people was such a great twist.
THREXIA
I really like her character development and the angst between her and Vyxaria. She's not for everyone, but personally I really like how realistically she's written for a red flag. We know she's narcissist (as Wincy has said) but that is to be expected since she's a succubus. I like how in this story a demon acts like a demon and it's not the trope of "I hate everyone but for some reason MC is the exception". And then it just so happened for her to absorb Vyxaria's humanity alongside her energy in "that night", so now she got infected with feelings too 🙆‍♀️
NETTIE
I never pick my li right from the start because I usually need to spend a lot of time with them to start liking them. But when I saw Nettie I knew she was going to be my li in this book. Black haired alt girl? Sign me up! I also think her introverted kinda awkward personality is cute.
RATAN
Ratan is definitely one of these lis with a really cool and laid back aura. He's also really supportive and a feminist king. I still haven't finished KCD, but I definitely plan to for his route 👌
FELONIA
Despite being the only female li in this book, there's a heart in her scenes and I feel like her author actually likes writing her. I especially liked the tension between her and Audrey in that restaurant scene.
MIMI
She's really supportive but there's *tension* to that and she's not laid back at all lol. She can sting but in a good way. I'd say she's not a green flag nor a red flag either. Her character and lines/humor parts are very well written and in my very subjective opinion she and Lucifer have the best chemistry with Vicky out of the rest. She's not unpopular but I still think she's underrated. And also, have you seen her? I'm not going to get into the negative parts of her treatment here, it still bothers me though.
SIRIN
Sirin for me kinda saved this book. Her character feels so real and the way her struggles are written is very good too. I like Haze as a story, but I wasn't crazy about any of the lis. With the new 2 female lis policy and with the addition of Sirin, for me this book became balanced (not sure if this will change with the new man coming). Tata is fine but she's the best friend trope that would get drawn out in the sea of male lis, especially if Sirin was a man too.
LIAM
Sweet with a dose of craziness, just one my favourite types. The mystery of his character in S1 was really well executed too. You'd always feel there was something sinister about him and that he was hiding something, but then he would go on and be so genuinely sweet with Selena (and her tantrums) and it was such a great combination. Arcanum is also the only book of Alice from which I liked almost all of the male lis. Which is funny because she's one of the authors who's not very keen of the wlw routes, yet with her books I always end up liking her female lis a lot, and disliking most of her male lis.
DMITRY
Dependable and also one of the best looking sprites. Imo Cain is the one who matches Lane's personality the most and Dmitry feels like an adult who needs to keep parenting her, but I still like him the best.
CASSIEL
Last but definitely not least. All of his scenes with Audrey are so well written and I've never felt any of their interactions was empty or a filler. Sweet and aloof, I really like how the story shows he cares deeply about Audrey and others, even when his words say otherwise. When he gave Audrey a glass of water there was so much care into that action, and he's genuinely sweet to her even when she's not romancing him. He's definitely going in my all time top 5 list.
