blocking isn’t enough i need them sent to a train meant to force them to confront their issues grow progressively worse a person before finally going to the deep end and having their souls sucked out of their body by a giant roach potentially sent by a greater force

[chaoticallyandmentallydead]

Fave Infinity Train characters? I like Lake, Atticus, The Cat and Simon. Alan Dracula too, ofc!

Definitely Lake, I love everything about them, from their journey through individuality to just their characterization. After years of having goody two shoes as the protagonist, having them it's so refreshing.

With that said, I love all the protagonists really.

Jesse's fantastic dynamic with Lake where he's forced to grow a back bone while not erasing his selflessness nature.

Tulip it's the perfect protagonist for book 1, as her curiosity and intelligence go hand in hand with the mystery element and I love how Amelia's story of dealing with change serve as parallels to each other similar to how the next seasons protagonists do.

Grace and Simon's tragic stories never fails to get to me. They're definitely the best example of how the train fucks up the passengers.

And Amelia was going to have her own book, WE WERE ROBBED! And "no child entry point" or whatever, I guess Hazel doesn't exists.

Also, while my love for book 4 doesn't holds up as much as before, I still really love Min-Gi and Ryan by themselves.

As for the best companions, no shame on Articus and One-One, but Alan Dracula is a God. And I wish we got to know more about The Cat too.

[plantsucc]

sketch page I started at the end of Infinity Train Book 3 and beginning of Book 4. Kez correctly pointed out that Ryan and Min-Gi had this mutual condescension going on... knowing each other in and out, jealous of each other’s best traits, smug over the other’s shortcomings... yet, they both love each other. whether platonically or romantically, they wanted to (and did!!) stay together and create music together. :”)

I see a lot of Kez in a cute skirt but not enough in a waiter suit with a bowtie!! she IS the only ... kinda employee? of the castle hotel. also I’m biased towards suits. unrelated hc: I think she would post those “I may be a dumb bitch but I’m not fucking stupid” or “It’s not a competition but I’m still winning though” or “he won’t let me play with his ass :(” memes.

Round 2

Baseball has sponsorships, right? If not maybe Blaseball does.

Propaganda Under The Cut

Jaylen Hotdogfingers:

The greatest came-back-wrong character ever. She's the mayor of Seattle. She's was the best pitcher in the league. She was murdered by an umpire in an act of divine retribution for the fanbase's transgression. The fanbase exploited game mechanics to bring her back to life. Immediately she murdered 12 people. She died again and got revived a second time as part of a team of undead players that killed god. She's a really awful batter. She has, like, 16 songs written about her and they're all really good. I thought about her every single day for a period of six consecutive months. I love her.

I'll be real. I'm an outsider to the Blaseball fandom. I don't understand it. I think they've crowdfunded characters from fictionalized fucked-up Baseball stats and a dream. I love seeing what the fuck they're doing in their eldritch sandbox just so much.

Simon Laurent:

I love him so much! Yay! Yippie! he got what he deserved tho

have i submitted him yet? if yes here he is again. what did you do to my French man, now he has anxiety, and maybe 50 other things. i can fix him, but it would require a lot of time travel and a complete lack of trains. as i can't do that, he instead gets his very own tumblr poll submission. one vote for train man is one dollar towards the invention of the simon-specific time machine. (your other guys cant come unless they have the same name sorry) its for a good cause

imagine: youre in the trolley situation. well an oh-so-kind tumblr user decided to give everyone who submits this character a get-out-of-a-train-free ticket! use that ticket, and you're no longer responsible for the death of someone (or you are no longer fated to die)!

[kindaorangey]

the thing about simon laurent is that the story is not scared of him until AFTER he kills tuba. for the first five episodes he is the victim of quite a bit of slapstick comedy and made the butt of the joke and what's more he's the ONLY character this is happening to so despite his fucked up cult mindset the audience is being sent signals that he is ultimately harmless, HOWEVER these jokes are RED HERRINGS and they cease almost completely after tuba's murder and only make a reappearance in the final episode, when grace stumbles upon simon's shitty shitty fantasy novel and cringes, and it's a haunting reminder of how nonthreatening he used to seem right before he makes his grand entrance and we see just how much of a monster he has become.

Controversial Character Tournament Round 2: Simon Laurent from Infinity Train vs Yukio Okumura from Blue Exorcist

(remember that these characters are fictional and your fellow tumblr users are real. please be normal in the notes, i will not hesitate to block if you harass people)

Propaganda under the cut, may contain spoilers:

Simon Laurent:

LOVE: - "Simon is one of those characters that is so nuanced you just KNOW the fandom is going to mischaracterize him to hell and back in both directions. (SPOILER ALERT: They did, because of course they did.) He does some really genuinely terrible stuff in the show, but he is also severely traumatized and his story was intended by the creators to be a tragedy. And a lot of people refuse to acknowledge both of those things at the same time. [ head in hands. ] I have a thing about tragic antagonists so, I like him personally. But also!! The show he's a part of is extremely well made, /especially/ the season he's most prominent in. Without going into too much detail to avoid spoiling anymore than necessary to make my point, season three of Infinity Train tells the story of two people who start out at the same place. One is able to change and do better, but the other willingly stays in denial and continues to double down and spiral downward. It's /extremely/ well done and incredibly painful in the best way possible. But (a lot of, not all) the fandom opinions on both of these characters are painful in the /worst/ way possible. So!!! Hopefully I've made a pretty strong argument for him here, Lol." - "He Should Have Lived"

Yukio Okumura:

LOVE: - "I literally love him so much and i actually think he carries the series bc he's such a complex and interesting character but I see a lot of people who Fucking Hate him all because he "was really mean to his brother" and "shot him in the head" but I mean he literally apologized for that and he's a mentally ill minor"

#poll #round 2 #simon laurent #infinity train #yukio okumura #blue exorcist #1 submission #2 submissions

[lakesbian]

actually it's fucking insane that people see simon "tried to murder his only friend and called her an 'it' because she stepped down from the idealized pedestal he'd placed her on" laurent as Emotionally Repressed. "softie" is just an insane fucking statement literally everything he does is pretty large bean behavior in terms of the mass murders and dehumanization of people he's got going on. but "Emotionally Repressed :( hes Emotionally Repressed" is nuts bc, like, he's not. at all. he makes literally all of his raw emotions grace's problem literally all of the time with no consideration for when he's being manipulative or guilt-tripping or in the wrong. it's literally just the classic assumption that very abusive angry men are Hiding Their Sad Feelings when they are in fact making their sad feelings everyone elses problem in the worst possible way. he responded to his worldview being challenged by trying to murder his only friend while cry-laughing!!! that is not emotionally repressed behavior!!!!!

[most-hated-blorbo-bracket]

any chance of an updated list?

Of course!!

Also, this is the NEW and FUCKING IMPROVED LIST, I alphabetized it so it’s even better than before >:3

Currently, we have 340 unique characters (if I counted right) and 487 total submissions. The top three most submitted fandoms are Homestuck, Danganronpa, and One Piece, excluding submissions that were spelt wrong or spelt differently. The top three submitted characters are Haiji Towa, Vriska Serket, and Stella Goeta (stella has so many submissions it’s funny)!

Finally, this is the raw, unedited list of characters submitted so far. Just because they are here doesn’t mean they’ll be in the tournament; it just means they’ve been submitted, regardless of media or what character they are!

as always, list under the cut!

This first list is for characters with two or more submissions. Characters who have three or more submissions will get first dibs in the tournament!

Why is Laurent allowed to stand between simone and the fucking judges when she vaults

[sometipsygnostalgic]

Time for more salt and violence :DDDD

7. Which character did you begin to hate not because of canon but how the fandom acts about them?

15. That one thing you see in fanart all the time

19. You're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like...

7. Which character did you begin to hate not because of canon but how the fandom acts about them?

I find myself VERY RESISTANT to this kind of shit so when the universe makes me feel like I want to hate a character I kind of go the opposite direction and love them harder than any of their fans.

For example I see so many infuriating takes with Catra and Hordak but I REFUSE to hate them. I insist on loving them more for all of their flaws, to be the one who loves them most for their character. I fucking adore those characters.

Maybe my opinion would be different if I was saturated by fandom like all the realtime watchers were? Like I'd be worn down.

I'm trying to think of other characters this DOES apply to.

For a show I'm genuinely obsessed with - The closest might be Lemongrab in AT fandom, he was super woobiefied by some people and some of those people were not particularly good to me or to the AT crew (talking events that happened over 10 years ago). I will be real it's nothing on the scale of what happened in shera fandom, and I still love Lemongrab as a character, but I avoid making anything with him in it because I don't want his fans to speak to me. Hoping the situation is different now.

There's also Simon Laurent from Infinity Train. I never particularly LIKED Simon, I find him interesting, but FUCKING HELL. TAKE ALL OF THE ABOVE CHARACTERS AND MULTIPLY IT BY 100. I was still getting messages from the "Simon Anon" A FEW WEEKS AGO SAYING THAT I NEED TO BOYCOTT INFINITY TRAIN because the creators said some stupid ableist about Simon, which they did, BUT IT'S NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY LEAVE ME ALONE. Anyone who is a Simon stan is usually completely terrifying, and is occasionally racist or sexist depending on their stance on Grace while defending their precious white boy. Once I entered a server and someone IMMEDIATELY asked me what my thoughts on Simon were, they were completely ready to start a fight with me over it and I've never felt more terrified in my life.

I also got sick and tired of Hunter quickly for pretty much the same reasons as Simon, though he's not written to be an evil incel like Simon, he REALLY IS the woobie boy that everyone considers him to be adn that's why I don't like him. I appreciate his character arc but ehhhhhh I couldn't stand him until the end of season 2 and during season 3 where it finally got past the "im going to be MURDERED by BELOS if i dont do EVERYTHING IMMEDIATELY" phase. The reason Catra never falls into this category for me is because she had supervillain energy and tried so so hard to regain agency and she kicked Hordak's ass and opened the Portal. Hunter meanwhile takes every hit, and I just... it is painful to watch, especially having been in situations of fear and psychological abuse. I don't enjoy it and I don't enjoy the fandom's TERRIFYING OBSESSION with him.

Zuko is almost a character I don't like. There is no anti-fandom for Zuko so I have no reason to stubbornly love him. People always compare every redemption arc to Zuko and I am fucking sick of it.

15. That one thing you see in fanart all the time

If it's a group it's ALWAYS Best Friend Squad 4 man, which makes sense I guess since theyre The Main Group but like... Q_Q i just want to include Entrapta and Scorpia and make it a BFS/SPT combo. Is that self indulgent of me? Especially when it's S5 fanart, I want more Entrapta because she was basically with them the entire time! Aaaaaaaaaa!!!!! I have a lot of thoughts on "4 man BFS" as an entity and why it works as an answer to s1, and why it doesn't work so well in s5, and why I am sad there was no s5 closure to sPT even if that is a dead sPT i just wanted one more scene--

wait that's not really what this question is about, we are crossing into canon wishlist but also fanfic modern AU territory and ALLLLL of my annoyances with how Adora and Catra's friend groups are treated in those. Like how Bow, Glimmer, Scorpia, and Entrapta are supposed to be their BEST FRIENDS but all become irrelevant and straight up absent once Catradora are together. Uhhh...

Okay more about Entrapta, a pet peeve is when people give her Normal Hair. Like, not absolutely insanely long rapunzel hair. Just normal hair. IT'S NOT RIGHT--- i guess people find it hard to draw her hair if they're going for a more realistic style?

I actually like most She-ra art I see though. It's very rare I see something that annoys me. There's not enough fanart posted in this fandom recently for me to have seen something that grinds my gears. All the catradora art is fucking gorgeous. I don't look at nsfw so I have absolutely no thoughts about any weird tropes like I would for other fandoms like AT where the fandom was a lot straighter and drew more demeaning stuff including the girls.

19. You're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like...

I can hear Kan yelling at me to post Entrapdak under this heading. Fuck you, Entrapdak is great!

I don't have any really wild out there crackships, I don't have any "problematic pairings", but I usually get self conscious and cautious when I post Catrapta, or any Entrapta x a member of BFS stuff, LMAO. Even the normal fluffy stuff but especially the sex headcanon post yesterday with Catrapta. The issue is a lot of the time people are like "she's way older than the others???" and either I have to say "actually, that was a post by a character designer with no evidence in the show--" and I look like an idiot trying to justify something wrong, or I just say "theyre both somewhere in their 20s" and get it over with.

But I ship all of the princesses with each other, I especially think Entrapta x Everyone is fucking hilarious, just go off girl. I'm not ashamed of that per se, it's just some people in this fandom have a stick up their ass with anything that isn't a Certified Canon Pairing.

Now if you want something I do enjoy and am mildly disturbed by that, it's Seadak. Sea Hawk x Hordak. And also x Micah. Just pair the dads together. They have never interacted but isn't it fucking brilliant????
