[lonelyboy-in-space]

You know what? Luther’s “I don’t really have friends. Or romances. I just have my family, and I’d do anything to protect them” line WOULD go in my Aro/Ace evidence folder, if he wasn’t saying to the woman he literally marries this season

The Umbrellas and what their tumblr accounts would look like

Luther: Luther, in the first season, is the type of person with absolutely no social media — and he thinks that makes him so much better than everyone else. (Yes, it would be a tactic used by Reginald to further isolate Luther from the world and his family, but Luther wouldn’t believe that). After season one, when he’s more of a himbo, Luther would get an account for every social media platform possible. He would do this all at once and enable notifications for them all, so a very chaotic week would follow where Luther would get notification after notification from every app from Instagram to Class Dojo. In the end, Luther forgets about tumblr, only Liking a few posts by the haiku bot and other stable tumblr accounts. He would try to take the username “spaceboy” for all his social media accounts, but they’ve mostly been taken, so every different app has a different version of that name, like “sp@c3b0y” or “_space_boy_”. His profile picture is himself, since he figured he’s famous enough that people won’t assume it’s actually him, and his header is a group photo of The Umbrella Academy in full uniform. And yes, he gets scammed by bots on a regular basis. 

Diego: Diego had a My Chemical Romance phase, and if you don’t believe me then you’re wrong. (His emo band in the comics is very telling, guys). He has an old tumblr account somewhere out there full of emo aesthetics and sad boy quotes from his teenaged days, but he hasn’t touched it in years, partially because he can’t remember his login information. His username, which he can unfortunately remember, is something along the lines of “therealnumberone”. His profile picture is one of his knives and his header is his entire knife collection. 

Allison: Allison has accounts across every major social media platform, as is necessary for a celebrity of her status, however her account on tumblr is a secret and not known by the public. She made an account around the same time as Diego, when they were teenagers, but hers is more full of more upbeat aesthetics. It’s something very indicative of the times, like “shootingstarspacedustandglitter” or something. Unlike Diego, she remembers her login info, so sometimes she stalks the tags of herself or the movies/shows she’s appeared in. Her profile picture is herself, like Luther, as is her header. 

Klaus: Hoo Boy. Klaus. First things first, Klaus is both a long-time tumblr user and an avid tumblr user, and everyone unfortunately knows it. He’s not extremely obnoxious about it or anything, but he’ll reference tumblr trends or jokes all the time, and everyone else in his family will flinch and be violently sent back to circa 2002. Klaus loves reblogging reader self-inserts of himself, he thinks they’re hilarious. His blog is chaotic, full of everything under the sun, from cute animals to cursed images to humerus gifs to fanart of himself. He’s mutuals with Pukicho. He’s lowkey tumblr famous, despite the fact that he’s only had like three original posts. His original posts are wildly relatable, still. And the best part about his account? Since he made his account in the wee early days of tumblr, he was able to take the username “diegohargreeves”, and Diego is pissed about it. His profile picture is that old unicorn stuffed animal that he used to hide drugs in and his header is a picture of the ghosts from Pac-man. 

Five: Five doesn’t have any social media, aside from maybe — maybe — Pinterest. Still, he made an account at the request of Klaus, followed all of his siblings’ accounts (don’t ask how he knows what their usernames are), and called it a day. Klaus @‘s him in all of the posts he reblogs regarding animals. Once a year, Five will go through everything Klaus has wanted him to see. He’s a firm believer in the importance of reblogging instead of just Liking things, so he dutifully reblogs every post Klaus has sent him in a year, and then disappears for another year. The accounts that follow him solely because of Klaus are incredibly confused by him. His username is simple, he wanted it to just be “5” but that was taken, so he just added more an more 5s until the username was no longer taken. As of right now, it’s something like “55555555555555555555555”. His profile picture and header are blank, just the ones that are automatically put there when you make your account. 

Ben: If you thought Diego was bad, then wait until you see Ben’s account. Ben was the tumblr sad boy. When he was younger, he unironically reposted sad edits of famous actors and characters. He used to make long posts about hating the monster within and fearing that he would hurt his family, but no one else on tumblr understood what he was talking about. Klaus and Ben used to follow each other, but Ben, unable to delete his old account, made Klaus promise not to interact with his old account. (He doesn’t know it, but sometimes Klaus goes through Ben’s old posts, to better understand what’s going through his brother’s head). His account is something like “Frankenstein’s-Monster”, his profile picture is a picture he took of one of Grace’s flower bushes, except in black and white, and his header is a picture he took of all his favorite books. 

Viktor: Viktor only made a tumblr account recently. He only tells Five and Luther, both of whom dutifully follows him and then forget that tumblr exists. He likes to make posts about tips about maintaining your violin or working on a farm, as well as analyses on his favorite violin pieces. He only makes a few posts himself about being trans, but he likes to repost other people’s stories about their transitions. At first, he only Liked posts, until Five educated him on why that was harmful to the tumblr ecosystem. He was going to make his username “the-white-violin”, but then he got bold and made it “the-queer-violin” at the last moment. He likes this one better. His profile picture is a mustang horse with the trans flag behind it and his header is the sheet music to his favorite violin piece.

THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY MEME: [5/6] characters → luther hargreeves

[lonelyboy-in-space]

Diego is the revolted emo who loves wear black and in the minor inconvenience burst out in a wave of fury. I'm very sure he would listen to Olivia Rodrigo in secret

Allison was in her dark emo phase in season 3. Like, very very dark. Where life is a shit, God is dead and she only wants every single soul who dares to cross her path to suffocate into a plastic bag

Klaus is Klaus. He's such a richie emo, I'm not going to elaborate. You can (re)watch the series and reach your conclusions

Five, alright, you saw him in s3? Everything bout him screamed EMO. He's finally liberting the emoness inside him. He listens to rock. Deal with people is difficult. His life is blood. He burns this shit to the ground. He's a senior emo.

Both Umbrella!Ben and Sparrow!Ben are emo.

Umbrella!Ben loves gothic books, is a misunderstood romantic and cries himself to sleep at night (or at least used to when he was alive because he's a ghost and OH being dead is very emo of his part)

Sparrow!Ben is an emo in denial, but you fool nobody sir. You can wear your "rich boy" clothes, call other people emo as an insult and change your hairstyle from the end of season 2 to season 3 but you are EMO and I KNOW that

Viktor? His life is a big emo joke, I'm sorry. He listens to sad music to get even more sad, shyness who hides homicidal rage, depressed life, y'know, classical emo. Oh and destroy the whole world by PLAY A VIOLIN??? This is the apex of being emo

Lila went to play in a rock band in 80's Germany when she was having a break down, what is there more to say?

MY POINT IS the Umbrella Academy is a story about Luther and his emo family.

[lonelyboy-in-space]

So apparently there's this script for a tua season 1 episode that never got made. It's about their 23th birthday.

You guys.

A couple of things that stand out:

- That cross stitch Diego had in the boiler room that was so obviously a gift from Grace was a gift for his 23th birthday.

- Also, Diego went every week to visit his mom. I'm crying

- Klaus was in jail at this time, and he accidentally killed a guy in self defense.

- Allison is there but we just see her struggling not to use her powers on every day issues.

- Also apparently Patrick was her acting coach.

- She needed it.

- Luther was pathetic and I want to cry for him bc I love him so much but God was he dumb. Also the Accident happened the day after his birthday.

- Viktor had a girlfriend, who looked so sweet at first but then he found out she was cheating on him. On his birthday. Ouch.

- Five flirted with a woman named Delores in a 1940s (I think) bar, and it was so sweet and heartbreaking. He got a little kiss for dancing with her. It was great. Get it, old man.

- Five traveled to 2012 for the commission, saw Diego leave the academy, and couldn't stop himself from shouting his brother's name. I am HEARTBROKEN

- The Handler stopped him before Diego could see him, and also we have confirmation that the Handler was fucking creepy. She kissed Five after proclaiming he was hers. Five stands still and closes his eyes. I'm... feeling things. Mostly homicidal rage.

- Viktor visits Klaus in jail, which develops into the best conversation I've ever read.

- They talk about Viktor's book. Klaus is very supportive. Reading the whole script is worth it just to read that conversation JESUS CHRIST:

- Apparently, Grace announced one day at the dinner table that Diego had had his first wet dream.

- Klaus asks Viktor if he had added that lovely little anecdote into the book.

- Viktor responded with an: yeah, I did.

- Christ almighty I know understand why Diego was so fucking angry VIKTOR HARGREEVES YOU HAVE ZERO CHILL.

- Okay seriously overall that conversation is very sweet. Best klaus-viktor interaction. 10/10

- Also I find hilarious that Regginald tried to call them all separately but obviously no one picked up, so his next thought was: "well. Better start planning my own funeral".

- The quip Klaus made in the Void when he asked Reginald "couldn't you just have called?" Is a thousand times funnier knowing that the bastard DID call, but Klaus missed it bc he was in jail.

That is all for tonight lovelies, this was heartbreaking to read but overall amazing, I recommend you read it, here is the link
