#yandere the meta

[yanderes-galore]

This might be a weird request, and I don’t know if it falls under Freelancers or AI, but could you please do a platonic concept of the Meta from Halo RVB? Something like when the darling is around, he feels more human-like until eventually all the fragments start obsessing over them and associating them with that sense of humanity to the point where they decide they have to keep the darling with them at all times.

If it isn’t clear I have simped over every villain in this show a half dozen times each, I formerly apologize for the burst of requests and will now return to dormancy.

I... I think The Meta counts as a freelancer due to Agent Maine? You have a good point. Either way, not too weird, I can probably make a concept work along these lines.

Also, I don't mind. I love Red vs Blue lol. Been awhile since I saw the seasons featuring The Meta so I went off memory for the plot 😅 He acts the same/similar platonic and romantic but I tried to keep this just platonic.

Yandere! Platonic! The Meta Concept

Pairing: Platonic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Violence, Kidnapping, Obsession, Murder, Possessive behavior, Manipulation, Mental issues due to AI fragments, Feral yandere, Threats, Stalking.

The Meta is certainly feral.

This is because Maine was always someone who had a violent temper and spoke more through actions than words.

Now? The Meta has a ton of different voices trying to dictate him on what to do.

He can't really listen to them all so he just focuses on two things.

He wants power and perfection.

Maine himself wants power.

The fragments want perfection, they want to be more human.

The original plan was to rebuild Alpha to feel complete.

Then The Meta comes across you by chance.

You may be another agent, someone aiding the Reds and Blues.

Maine is probably looking for power even if he is a bit distant mentally.

Yet when you try to distract him or even damage him, he takes interest.

The fragments may even recognize you as an agent if you are one and keep you in mind.

It appears they need to be mindful of you along with Washington and South Dakota.

A platonic view of you would be very similar to a romantic view of you when it comes to The Meta.

It takes a long time before it's situated within him.

Using cloaking tehcnology, he stalks you like a hunting animal.

Something about you sparks a strive to pursue you.

The fragments in his head certainly agree.

Gamma keeps saying they should manipulate you to their side.

Delta is trying to give logic and reason on how you'll act if they take you.

Theta sees you like a parental figure similar to York and imprints on you.

Omega is full of rage towards those around you and you for distracting their plan.

Sigma is also manipulative and has ambition. He's similar to Gamma, but says how you could aid them to be perfect.

The Twins agree with them and calculate how to make it all work.

For the most part the fragments are going to be controlling this obsession.

They're guiding and manipulating Maine as The Meta to chase you down.

Alpha is important for their plan, yes, but so are you.

In an attempt to achieve humanity, The Meta chases you like an animal.

He stalks you from the shadows, growling being heard yet you can never find the source.

It isn't until he eventually pounces that you realize you're in trouble.

The Meta will hold you down, restraining you with snarls as he tries to subdue you.

One way or another, most likely by damaging your helmet/head, The Meta will knock you down and out before running off with you.

He'll most likely be shot at on the way out, Washington refusing to allow him to leave.

During this The Meta does everything in his power to shield you from stray bullets.

The Meta is a beast who's obsessive towards his goal of power, perfection, and humanity.

By the time you wake up you can barely move, the area you're in is a temporary hideout of The Meta.

Your head throbs painfully and your body is hard to move.

Meanwhile The Meta is sitting beside you, watching you like a hawk.

Caring for you makes him feel human... makes him feel complete.

Once he finds Alpha, he'll truly be the best he can be.

The Meta is very animalistic in his obsession.

He's incredibly violent when angered and acts so possessive of you.

The Meta would attempt to be caring towards you due to Theta and Delta.

Meanwhile he's controlling due to Gamma and Sigma, using manipulation to keep you.

The fragments definitely guide most of the obsession.

Maine himself is somewhat there but he is mostly a puppet.

He just listens to them and they control his behavior.

Physical affection is a bit difficult for him.

His grip is tight but he is mindful of not crushing you through your armor.

Most of The Meta's communication is through grunts and growls.

Even when he's trying to be affectionate and calming towards you, it sounds so aggressive.

The Meta would kill anyone around you in an instant.

Both Maine and the fragments feel others with you are a threat.

They can't just allow someone to take their key to humanity, can they?

Which leads to The Meta hunting people around you to keep you to himself.

The Meta is probably one of the strongest RvB yandere.

This is due to his strength and durability, along with the feral nature.

The Meta may also express different "moods" due to the AI?

He's usually cruel and manipulative, behavior rather threatening towards you.

Other times he's affectionate and docile, but only around you.

The Meta struggles understanding companionship due to all the voices ruining his mental state.

Yet, he knows to be gentle with you.

It's strange how this big strong threat softens towards you.

You can almost consider the killing machine a friend...

Unfortunately such feelings are forced as his aggression and strength scare you.

Yandere batfamily time travel au (different/angsty version)

The bad family gets thrown into the future, about 20 years or so. They are them faced with three major villains who lives in Gotham and have somehow become worse than the joker in terms of casualties. Two of them are front fighters, well, the third is said to be the boss and is not seen often. Their counterparts are pretty much obsessed with fighting this person. However, it isn’t long before their nemesis kidnaps one of the Wayne’s from the past, and that is when they meet you.

You are the third member, and contrary to popular belief you are not the boss. It’s more of a Harley Quinn sort of situation. The two main fighters are people who recruited you after your foster parents sold you to human traffickers, because you developed meta-abilities. Those two ‘rescued’ you and trained you to use your abilities to help them commit crimes, though they usually disguise you whenever you go out, so no one knows you exist. The rest of the time, you are usually treated as a servant/pet.

I think the first person they kidnapped was definitely Damian. However, none of the kidnappers realized that Damian had a tracking device as well as a comm. after a little bit, they all start becoming protective of you, and I can see several of them attempting to be kidnapped just to see you.

After a little while, the fight happens. They are winning when, suddenly, a shot rings out and you fall to the ground. The bullet had been meant for one of them (you can choose which one, though I am mostly thinking Bruce for the Maximum angst) but you moved in the way of it. You got shot for them. You saved them, but paid for it with your life.

Before you die, you look whoever you saved in the eye, and ask them to make sure that this didn’t happen again. You meant it as making sure human trafficking were destroyed, and those with abilities were put in good homes, or that no villain could use someone the way you had been used. However, the bat family takes this as permission to make sure you never become a villain ever again.

When they get to their original timeline, the first thing they do is search for you. You were a chubby three year old, knew you hadn’t discovered your powers until you were five. It was fairly easy to frame your parents for a crime, and take you with them to the manor. You were never going to have to struggle again. You saved their lives. Now they were going to return the favor.

I would like more dark/mirror noir like, how does he interact with other dark/mirror characters?

...I KNEW it. I just KNEW IT!! /lh What have I done?!

:does it again:

Anyway, they say having confidence in yourself is a good way to make friends, so unlike his main-verse counterpart, Mirror Noir gets along great with the other mirror residents! </biased perspective>

I'll draw him with Shadow Dedede later. Mirror Noir also LO~VES penguins!

Guidelines

My policy for fanwork is that anything goes in fiction, but respect my authority and copyright outside it. This means normal fan activity like taking screencaps, posting playthroughs, and making fanart/fanfiction is completely allowed, but selling this game or its assets isn't allowed (selling fanwork of it is fine, though). You are also not allowed to feed any of my assets to AI bots, period, even if it's free.

Do not use my stuff for illegal or hateful content.

Also, I expect everyone to respect the Content Warnings on the page. I'm old and do not tolerate fandom wank.

F.A.Q.

Who are the main Love Interests in Reanimated Heart?

Read their character profiles here!!

Who's the team?

Jack (creator, writer, artist), mostly. I closely work with Exodus (main programmer) and Claira (music composer). My husband edits the drafts.

For Reanimated Heart, my friend Bonny makes art assets. I've also gotten help from outsiders like Sleepy (prologue music + vfx) and my friend Gumjamin (main menu heart animation).

For Reanimated Heart's VOs, Alex Ross voices Crux, Devin McLaughlin voices Vincenzo, Christian Cruz voices Black, Maganda Marie voices Grete, and Zoe D. Lee voices Missy.

Basically, it's mostly just me & outsourcing stuff to my friends and professionals.

How can I support Double Dead Studio productions?

You can pay for the game, or join our monthly Patreon! If you don't have any money, just giving it a nice rating and recommending it to a friend is already good enough. :)

Where do the funds go to?

Almost 100% gets poured back into the game. More voice acting, more music, more trailers, more art, etc. I also like to give my programmer a monthly tip for helping me.

This game is really my insane passion project, and I want to make it better with community support.

I live in the Philippines and the purchasing power of php is not high, especially since many of the people I outsource to prefer USD. (One time I spent P10k of my own money in one month just to get things.) I'll probably still do that, even if no money comes in, until I'm in danger of getting kicked out the street… but maybe even then? (jk)

What platforms will Reanimated Heart be released in?

Itch and then Steam when it's fully finished. Still looking into other options, as I hear both are getting bad.

Will Reanimated Heart be free?

Chapter 1 will be free. The rest will be updated on Patreon exclusively until full release.

Are you doing a mobile version?

Yeah. Just Android for now, but it's in the works.

Where can I listen to Reanimated Heart's OST?

It is currently up on YouTube, Spotify, and Bandcamp!

Why didn't you answer my ask?

A number of things! Two big ones that keep coming up are Spoilers (as in, you asked something that will be put in an update) or it's already been asked. If you're really dying to know, check the character tags or the meta commentary. You might find what you're looking for there. :)

Will there be a sequel to Pygmalion's Folly?

It's not my first concern right now, but I am planning on it.

genuine question how come 99% of batfam yandere posts are platonic kghfgjhfgdfgs

[yuerikoko]

I think I now get where all the Angela hate (and mischaracterization) came from

(Posting another ramble dedicated to my beloved yay)

I might sound like I’m beating a dead horse here since the Angela hate has died down as of recently but I still can’t help but wonder why she had received that much hate in the first place. What warranted her to get this much hate even until recently, whereas other characters who are written similarly to her, or have done much worse, are not as actively hated? Where did the popular fanon conception of her— one that portrayed her as an abuser, stalker and even r wordist at one point— also come from?

After some thinking and also me having known this fandom for 3 years up to this point, I think(?) I was finally able to trace where all this hate came from and where the infamous fanon version of her came to be.

CW: spoilers for WE and mentions of abuse/stalking/sexual assault and other potentially triggering themes. Please proceed with caution.

Also note: I do not intend to harass or call anyone out with this. Therefore, I will not be naming any names (if any) nor will I mention any works that can be triggering. This is simply a meta analysis trying to dissect a character’s fan reception, and while I may give my own thoughts somewhere down the line, I will also try to be as objective as possible with my observations.

0. Pre-C42

Before C42 came out, Angela did not receive as much hate. She wasn’t as popular as Jack or Elliot either, yet people didn’t have a reason to hate her at all prior to IPS. It was likely because she didn’t have much to remember her by other than being “Lars’s wife” or the S3 coroner, either due to the fact that she doesn’t have as much screen time as compared to other characters, or simply doesn’t have anything that makes her stick out as a character or as iconic as others in the team (e.g. Jack, Elliot and Marina for their designs, Lars, Carmen and Elliot for their attitudes towards the team and other people around them in general).

This, however, will be a topic of discussion again in a while, so please keep this in mind as we move on to the next point in this analysis.

1. The aftermath of C42 and C56

This seems to be the starting point of this whole hullabaloo, and understandably so. Angela had just murdered someone, betrayed us, and tried to frame other people for it (C42) and of course, people were upset about it, yet there were still those who had hope for her and tried to sympathize with her. And then came C56, where she returned, but as a colder, more aggressive version of herself that has pledged loyalty to SOMBRA and was willing to carry out their orders so dutifully that she was willing to plant a bomb. This, of course, likely fueled the hate and people had more of a reason to hate her when she made fun of Dupont’s death. Although one take in particular did stand out to me (and not in a good way):

The idea that she doesn’t genuinely love Lars.

Yes, I do understand that this is a very old take from 2016 and things may change from there, but I would just like to highlight how dangerous it is to perceive characters this way. Takes like these erase the complexities of her writing and essentially reduce her— someone who has had to make a lot of hard decisions to even be with Lars, which became the basis of the person she was up to that point— into a nothing more than a caricature of how people think morally gray characters should be based on whether or not they are deemed “good” or “bad” in the traditional sense.

I also do think certain plot holes in PS’s handling of her character in the final case also contributed to it. It felt ridiculous to see how a character whose most defining trait is being family oriented suddenly turned cold and bitter towards her old team, unhesitatingly claiming that they were enemies now as if their previous friendships did not matter. Maybe this was where the idea that she’s manipulative and/or possessive came from: since she was still clinging onto Lars and the triplets (that her literal last wish was to see them again) while showing this lack of compassion that would be unnatural to her past self.

With that said, the fact that she wasn’t as memorable as a main character but was more iconic as a traitor/antagonist did contribute to mixed opinions from the fandom back then. While a lot of people seemed to be mad at the things she’s done, there were some who thought it made her more interesting as a character. I guess it depends on subjective interpretation in this case, though unfortunately, back when WE first came out, many people fell into the mindset of black-and-white morality, and end up hamfisting complex and nuanced characters into extremes based on whether or not they like them.

2. Fanon/“Yandere” Angela

Following the events of WE, this seems to be a very common fandom perception of her. This subject is somewhat hard to accurately put into words, but I will try my best to give my analysis and thoughts on it, so please correct me if I get something wrong.

For those who don’t know, this is what a yandere is supposedly defined as:

TL;DR: yanderes are known to be violent, possessive and obsessed with a particular love interest. This may even go to the extent of hurting any potential “rivals” or even their love interests themselves.

If you have been in the fandom long enough, and especially if you’re into WE or Angela, you might find that there have been numerous fanfics that described her this way: as an absolutely horrible person who abuses and even stalks Lars in some, along with getting upset when others get close to him.

It may have originated from Wattpad, where there were two fics (afaik) focused on the concept of Angela being a yandere in itself. This, and considering the fact that there is barely any fan material of Angela (most especially fics) and that almost every fic that has her in it at the time either has her play an antagonistic role or use her as a plot device (usually for other ships to happen) may have contributed to the whole idea of her being a “yandere” that was almost universally accepted as the basis of her character in fics.

There is also that perceived manipulation and “sociopathy” from earlier that may have contributed to the idea of yandere Angela. A common fandom perception of her is that Angela has a warped idea of what love is and ends up displaying unhealthy/dangerous behaviors towards Lars as a result of her obsession (which she perceives as “love”). And as a result, she ends up resorting to actual criminal behavior in some of these fics: stalking Lars, physically abusing him and in one extreme case, even raped him. (Disclaimer: I will not be naming any of these fics since I do not condone hate or harassment towards the authors, nor do I want to further trigger anyone reading this by openly naming said content.)

This may have also been a big factor in contributing to Angela hate as the normalization of this depiction of her has led to people almost unanimously accepting this as her actual character.

I would like to say that I very much disagree with this take on her character. While yes, it is true that Angela does have questionable morality (e.g. she understands that what SOMBRA did to children is wrong and actively condemns it, yet was willing to blow up the Bureau hq knowing that Elliot and Sanjay are inside), her love for Lars seems to be genuine and even healthy for the most part. Time and time again, she has shown that she really loves him— hell, her laptop password even has his name on it.

3. Popularization of these misconceptions

As these fics were the only depiction of Angela in the fandom for a time, they are, by far, the most infamous depiction of her. This, along with the “I hate her because she’s a bad person and did bad things” majority, has then led to her getting this much hate from the fandom.

Moreover, there was a time in 2023 where there’s an influx in WE-centered fics, and that also resulted in most of the anti-Angela fics for the most part. This may explain the more recent hate directed towards her as compared to characters from other seasons.

Conclusion

Much of the hate towards Angela in particular stems from both severe misinterpretation of canon events and her character’s actions/intentions, and this version of her being extremely popularized to the point where people treated it like it’s actually her. The former mostly applies to around the time WE was still ongoing to after it ended (2016-2017 ish) while the latter could explain the more recent hate. Fortunately, it seems as though more people have the media literacy to read along the nuances of her character and understand her intentions before forming an opinion.

Anyways this was A LOT— probably even longer than the Carmen/Angela post but I’ve been thinking about this for just as long (there was a time I was afraid to admit I liked her because of how hated she was). Thank you for listening to my TED Talk, I guess.

this was a lil request i received from one of my friends at Discord, gotta say I'm very proud of this one! >:D

also Meta Knight as a yandere? HELL YEAH MAN KDJSKDJKD ⚔️👁️‍🗨️

btw hope you're having a wonderful time and take good care :] 💛

As much as gear 5 Luffy would be horrifying as a yandere at the same time I can’t help but not take take it too seriously.

Like the dude is doing the looney tunes gag of doing a wolf whistle while stamping his foot against the ground, his eyes turn into hearts or some shit and his tongue quite literally is rolling out his mouth. Maybe he’s even doing the Pepe Al pew joke of him floating with love hearts flying around him.

Is that horrifying, yes of course. But is that shit goofy as hell also yes.

It certainly makes writing for him specifically difficult because its... it's not that serious but it is???

He's literally an overly attached reality warper. Writing for yandere gear 5 is like seriously writing yandere Bugs Bunny--on some level most people can't take that seriously despite the very real threat they'd pose. It's a clash of tone that actively fights itself.

And don't get me wrong, I love writing what happens when tones clash and reality folds in on itself to make two contradictory statements equally true. It's one of my favorite things about really thoughtful crossovers.

But.

Yanderes are a very dangerous threat regardless of how pretty you dress them up, very fucked up on an emotional, physical, and psychological level. It is abuse covered in chocolate.

Loony Tunes on the other hand isn't dangerous. Anvils and pianos fall from the sky and pancake people into literal disks they either pop back from or comedically blow on their thumb to reflate. They burst through walls and shoot clear up to the stars on the regular. But it's all for a punch line, it's not that serious. It's nostalgic and actively telling you to not think too hard about it.

So... yandere gear 5 Luffy is a very bizarre thing to write about because on a very real level there's no like, boundary here. Whether or not what he does is traumatizing or physically damaging is entirely up to him. He could beat the shit out of you and you literally shake it off as though nothing happened. The body horror aspect alone...

So, as a final note to this entirely too serious take on the existence of a yandere gear 5 Luffy specifically, this scenario is uniquely fucked up and damaging from literally any angle. But at some point there's not much else to say about it. Toon logic is unique to a visual medium and trying to explain or imply how fucked up it is, is sort of a losing battle. Either that or you start to feel like a kill joy actively murdering the concept of fun and animated physical comedy nearly all of us grew up on in some form or fashion.

So unless the ask is particularly interesting, I don't think I'm going to be doing anymore headcanons for gear 5 yandere.

I saw that you mentioned glee in your post about your fan cast for the twilight movie.

What gifts would the glee club members have if they were vampires? If the Cullen family broke up and Edward had nowhere to go, would Edward join the club to express his angst? I feel like Edward would view Mr. Shue as a father, like he does with Carlisle.

Rachel already has a gift, it's the power of making people think she's the best singer in the room when she's clearly not.

As for the Cullens, the beautiful thing is that they would fit right in with the Glee club. The members are all, with the sad pit of despair known as Quinn excepted, insane in their own way, the Cullens wouldn't stand out at all.

Sadly, they would never join of their own accord as they view the whole thing as beneath them. They wouldn't be at McKinley at all, it's always sunny at that school. Similarly, if the Cullens break up for whatever reason, I don't really think Glee club is going to be Edward's next move.

If, however, McKinley is in a more vampire-friendly climate and the Cullens are in attendance, and if Mr. Shue planted weed on them to force them to join, we get truly beautiful drama as Rosalie would project a little too much on Quinn and hate on her for giving up her baby, Rachel would be in a horrible love triangle of doom because Finn is her one true love but EDWAAARD (Edward has no idea she feels this way), and Brittany figures out right away the Cullens are all vampires but nobody believes her.
