Holy shit I love your Dirk interpretations, it's so true and I could talk about this shit forever. I feel like another part of his character that people seem to forget (along with Roxy for some reason) is that he's from the future in solitude in an apocalyptic wasteland. I just see that part of his character always removed which is disappointing because I feel like that's a pretty big part, especially regarding his themes around technology, his brother's theme of Time, his own isolation, and how he plays in the vastness of the universe and spacetime.
Art I drew related to the subject because I like to respond to asks with art.
But absolutely. I certainly understand where the lack of discussion over his isolation + upbringing comes from, considering a majority of the fanbase that I have seen builds their ideas based on their own version of postcanon. I’m not entirely sure how that would be fixed, but certainly even in the somewhat recent past I would see a lot more content regarding his upbringing both literally and symbolically. I don’t have much to add regarding the things you’ve mentioned, because they just are what they are. Dirk being confined to a singular room left to him by a father figure he never met, in a future where the only other person left on the planet is someone he cannot pursue a relationship of because of himself, with purely 3 robots to keep him companion, one being an exact replica of his own brain who is *also* trapped inside a pair of glasses, is about as literal as it gets to me.
The contrast to me involving the flooded, organic world in comparison to the little speckle of Dirk’s apartment packed with the dude and his technics is not only a representation of his isolation and entrapment within himself, but also of his lack of control. I think his obsession with & themes of control are a direct product in the case of Dirk specifically *of* this kind of upbringing. His themes of technology are also related to his themes around control. So much of his character is actually revolved around this to me like so much. Dirk is so deeply disconnected from humanity in every way and so much of his character + symbolism is based around that.
It doesn’t even have to be about the symbolism or anything though. It’s just pretty *interesting* in the literal sense that he lives in the middle of the ocean in the future. There’s not only a lot to theorise on to do with his young life there, but on how it might affect him in the way he acts for the rest of his life. The latter part is probably what I see mentioned the most by people talking about Dirk regarding this, I’m surprised I don’t see more discussion on the former too though. I really ought to actually talk more about Homestuck stuff on here. I will do it myself.
Roxy & Dirk’s relationship is largely ignored though because there is a narrative a certain demographic spreads that Dirk resented and blamed Roxy for her interest in him, and thus too many people believe that their relationship was or would continue to be an abusive one. Realistically, I believe it’s important to acknowledge that the way Roxy treated Dirk regarding his homosexuality wasn’t right while still acknowledging the obvious amount of respect and admiration Dirk had for Roxy. I mean we have a huge piece of dialogue from their post trickster mode conversations on the quest beds from Dirk purely stating how he feels about Roxy that people completely ignore somehow. I think this usually happens to characters that are women though. I know everyone says it, but it is true. Jane gets the exact same treatment of boiling her down to solely her negative aspects. The things I see completely mischaracterising both of them are horrific.
I mean how much more explicit can it get that their relationship is obviously very important to Dirk? But I digress. I think the best or I should say “most interesting” interpretations of their relationship usually come from DirkRoxy shippers actually.
I would be interested to hear about Dirk’s relation to his brother’s theme of time though. I don’t have any thoughts on this and I don’t recall ever hearing anyone talk about it before. If you or anyone else would be willing to enlighten me I’d be thrilled.

Would it be good or bad if the writers changed who Moonpaw's parents were before the book gets released? (Y'know that's assuming they'd ever do that)
It would be nothing but a good thing!
The authors are careless and don't think through the implications of the random ships they seem to pick (besides an uncomfortable pattern where they seem to be VERY good at torpedoing popular queer ships with laser precision). But they should.
Warrior Cats is a series about family, and ASC was apparently supposed to be a series about Nightheart having issues with inheriting the legacy of Firestar... but half of the Clan is descended from Firestar. Nothing about Nightheart is special, even by the established logic of the series. This is a plot hole.
It's inconsistent and makes the drama in the series worse. The readers are just supposed to accept whatever the writers want to be relevant, and forget it in the next book. WE remember that Thriftear and Bayshine are first cousins. The authors don't. That's bad storytelling.
If they just changed the parents to Fernstripe and Shellfur, it would immediately be better with no downsides. We'd get some payoff for a developing background relationship, which would be nice! Simple as that.
#Like... it's a matter of setup and payoff.#It's setup that they want to desperately ignore because it's bad and awkward#I'm talking about victims of abuse lately as response to how poorly some people have been acting#But the writing team would have no intention to write this like that and GOD I HOPE THEY DON'T#They're not CAPABLE of handling it respectfully and we do NOT need Spottedleaf's Heart 2#So it would be better to just quietly change the parents and move on.

Yukio haters are some of the funniest people out there. Mostly because they're often Rin fans I swear and that influences a lot of their takes. They're so upset that a character has deep flaws and isn't a literal sunshine baby to Rin. They take it so personally like he's a real person.
Even then it's frustrating because they reduce Rin down to nothing. He too has some deep flaws that make Yukio andhim butt heads. And sometimes Yukio's anger at him is justified! Rin never takes the situation he's in seriously until it's too late. And by that point Yukio's already in deeper with other issues. Them butting heads isn't because Yukio's an ass only. It's because they're both refusing to listen to one another and actually speak on their problems.
It's totally more on Yukio's end with his own problems being much stronger. But neither are these perfect angels. They're interesting characters that have deep issues with each other. And they're just starting to work it out. There's going to be bumps in the road, but Yukio is trying his best in the recent chapters. And so is Rin.
It's just turned form frustrating to funny now to see people get upset at Yukio. I would rather him be the mess he is than be the actual perfect character type he's a deconstruction of. It wouldn't be aoex without him and boy would it be so boring.
#ao no exorcist#blue exorcist#rin okumura#yukio okumura#i don't even like yukio#he's pretty low on my list of characters#not because he's a bad one but i find others more interesting#it's just been weird to see people keep getting weirdly mad at him#when he's not even real!#he's a fictional character!#flaws are important for a character or else they're boring#would we be excited to read aoex if it didn't have these two brothers bonking heads constantly???#i tend to ignore the haters but they've just been louder lately#like damn sorry kato knows how to write a story with actual conflict

If I say Ford should be allowed to exist as an imperfect victim of abuse without being shamed for falling for that abuse while also being allowed to be viewed as an ass at points, will the fandom flay me alive on both sides?
#Hayley Speaks#HE'S BOTH OKAY. HE CAN BE BOTH.#How are you going to say he's an imperfect victim and then ignore the imperfect part#Everybody in the show is an ass at points; he is no exception#'HE'S NEURODIVERGENT' And? He can still be an ass. Do you think neurodivergent people can't be an ass at points?#But!! Him being a bit of an ass isn't an excuse for the abuse he suffered#I dunno; I keep seeing people veer way too far to defend him and end up erasing elements of him that make him actually interesting#Anyway I am NOT making this rebloggable because the fandom scares me#This is also not a Ford hate post; we don't do that here#I just think he's more interesting when we don't ignore certain elements of his character for the sake of defending him#Kind of like Stan!#He's an ass! And I love that! I hate seeing people erase that; especially as of late for the sake of shipping him with a CERTAIN someone#And now I've gotta stop before I start getting annoyed with the sudden boom of F/ddlestan shippers who don't understand his character

I'm calling it and I hope I'm wrong about it.
If Gege drops a backstory for Sukuna, folks are still going to be like "well, it's not the backstory I want for him".
#now I'm a sukuna fan and i said it before#i could actually give no fucks about a backstory for him#like at all#the story ain't about him#two backstories in jjk haven't actually been fleshed out fully so why would the big bad get out but not the mc hello?#pieces of a backstory yes#that has happened#and I'm not counting the pre hidden inventory arc as a full one#that was just the flashback needed to understand future events#and it wasn't just gojo's backstory BTW it was geto's toji's riko's hell even yaga and shoko#now would i be mad about a sukuna backstory? no I'd love it#but do i think it's actually necessary especially since we kinda already know who he is...#because of the pieces of his background shown before? no no i don't#unlike some folks i don't feel entitled to it#i feel like some of you want a backstory to excuse his actions let's be honest#because lately if a villain has a sad backstory people ignore that they have made terrible decisions they did not have to do#or just excuse their actions#but their actions is a part of the story how do you ignore PARTS OF A STORY?! YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND IT!!#i don't care what sukuna had going on in the past he still is a curse to yuji#just kiya's thoughts#jjk#jujutsu kaisen#sukuna#sukuna ryomen#ryomen sukuna

"[Elizabeth Woodville] was the only member of [Crown Prince Edward of Westminster's] original 1471 council not already on the king’s council and her name headed the list of those appointed as administrators in Wales during Edward’s minority. [She remained on the council after it was expanded in 1473 and granted significant new governing and judicial powers]."
"In 1478 Prince Richard [of Shrewsbury] married the Mowbray heiress. Like his elder brother he had a chancellor, seal, household and council to manage his estates. His council, like that of Prince Edward, comprised the queen [Elizabeth Woodville] and a group of magnates and bishops, few of whom were Woodville supporters [...] It was Elizabeth who mattered, for Richard resided with her and Rivers treated his affairs as their own."
-J.L. Laynesmith, The Last Medieval Queens: English Queenship 1445-1503 / Michael Hicks, Richard III and his Rivals: Magnates and their Motives in the Wars of the Roses
#good👏🏻 for 👏🏻 her#historicwomendaily#elizabeth woodville#15th century#english history#princes in the tower#my post#Reminder that these sort of additional official positions in governance were very unusual (unprecedented) for late medieval English queens#Elizabeth's formal appointment in royal councils (+ authority over her sons) should not be ignored or downplayed in the slightest bit#It should instead be considered one of the most defining aspects of her queenship that spanned over a decade and lasted right till the end#& should also be highlighted as one of the most vital topics of discussion when it comes to broader queenly power in late medieval England#I think it also says a lot about Elizabeth's relationship to Edward IV and the regard he seems to have had for her capabilities#'The only member of the original 1471 council not already on the king’s council' that speaks VOLUMES. Once again: good for her.#It's also really frustrating how some historians (Katherine J. Lewis; AJ Pollard; Laynesmith etc) have incredibly lopsided perspectives on#Elizabeth that fundamentally *do not work* when you remember these actual facts and what they reveal about her power and influence#I'm also still baffled at Lynda Pidgeon's claim that 'Elizabeth's influence with Edward IV was less than with family members who were#part of the king's council or that of her son Edward prince of Wales'. Like???????#First of all - we *already know* that Elizabeth had the most personal influence with Edward and was the one he trusted the most#The case in 1480 & his own will in 1475 (where he referred to her as the one 'in whom we most singularly place our trust') make both clear#Second of all - ELIZABETH WAS LITERALLY ON HER SONS' COUNCILS HERSELF. HER NAME HEADED THE GODDAMN LIST. How have you missed this????????#It's actually bizarre because it completely ignores the fact that 1) Late medieval queens *weren't* generally given positions like this?#If we accept Pidgeon's (false) interpretation we have to claim that NONE of them were influential at all#Which I'm pretty sure nobody agrees with? So why have I seen people agreeing with Pidgeon's FALSE take on Elizabeth based on that lmfao?#2) Elizabeth WAS in fact given such positions. She genuinely was given unusual authority and was an Exception™ rather than the rule#Forget emphasizing her atypical role - Pidgeon has outright erased it in an effort to diminish her#She does the same thing when talking about Elizabeth's role after Edward IV's death and it's equally ridiculous and incorrect#There's stupidity and then there's willful misreading & rewriting of history according to your own imagination. This fits the latter
