Negative regression.

Poor little guy, he's overwhelmed right now, okay?

Hi hi I apologize if I sent this already, I don't have a very good memory ☹ but if your requests are open could i request something with regressed DIO and vanilla ice taking care of him? Maybe being called down from a tantrum or something? Thank you if you do :3

Ah I did get it! Sorry, I get distracted easy when small.

This one is a negative regression fic so be careful in case it's sensitive for you

I think Dio neg regresses, and sometimes gets scared after a tantrum from bad memories. He does get comforted though.

+++++++++++

Vanilla hates to see Dio crying. Dio had been put in timeout twenty minutes ago, and it seems that he's already regretting his actions. The little one had been crying and shaking when guided gently to the stool in the corner; No doubt fearing a Victorian-era beating common for misbehaving kids. One that was never going to come from his caregiver.

Cleaning up the shattered vase took Vanilla no time at all, with the help of Cream, but he still had work to do before he could call Dio out of the corner. He had to fetch a warm blanket from the drier, make sure Dio wasn't hiding a knife in his pockets (again), offer a plate of sweets for their eventual talk about what set off the regressor, and something to drink.

But a mumble catches his attention before he leaves to get any of those.

He didn't want to ask the young lord to repeat himself, especially since it could trigger Dio to act out again. But he couldn't just leave the little one, sad and alone when he needed a father to comfort him.

Dio's quiet sobs start again as he waits impatiently, stomping a foot at the perceived slight! How dare father not come when he's clearly needed!

Quickly Dio is wrapped in a warm hug, a large blanket keeping him wrapped up like a nippy cat. The vampire's hissing and fussing stops as he feels Vanilla carry him to the bed, holding him close and rubbing the whole time. "You are... Forgiven..." The vampire mumbles, nuzzling as best he can into his father's shoulder. A gentle jostle from the caregiver keeps him from sleeping, clearly expecting a bit more from Dio. The little one rolls his eyes before pouting, a sleepy mumble: "And I'm sorry, father..."

"Thank you, little prince. It can be hard to feel so strongly. But I won't ever hurt you for acting like a child. And you don't have to act out in fear of being hurt. I'll never let anyone hurt you."

"... Promise?"

"I promise. I will always keep you safe, my prince. My job is to keep my child safe. To make my little prince know how much I care about him, and that I am always on your side."

Dio feels a kiss pressed to his forehead, and something soft wedged into his arms to snuggle for a light nap. Must be a stuffed animal... Something to snuggle other than his father. How silly, to think he, Dio, won't cling to him as he naps!

4-6 regression - not negreg

So I'm kind of interested to try regressing to this age range again but doing so in a way that wont be "negreg" or involuntary. I want to know if anyone has any tips. The last time I regressed to that age, it was completely involuntary, complete "negreg" and a feeling of complete helplessness (more than ever "SFW Interaction Only!!" please). I don't have a CG and I'm not really in a position to pay for anything to assist with it yet (the responsibilities I'm trying to cope with by regressing) nor do I really know what "normal behaviour" will be for me at that age so...please keep that in mind when sending suggestions through (even if its just "here's a movie for that age range that's on YouTube"). I'll write another post to say if it goes well or not but anything would be appreciated. I do try to keep my blog Middle focused but in relation to my age regression, this is something that IS bothering me.

Hey gus,

I'm sorry i have been so quite, These past few months have been so difficult, I have needed to take time away, My mental health and physical health has been declining and I haven't been able to deal with it. Im young and have 2 young children who depend on me. I battle with my mental health and my physical health everyday and have done for years and I have days where this is breaking me. Well these few months it broke me and its broke me for longer then i wanted. This is a battle that is hard and i know i am strong and i will always come out the other side, i fight these battles on my own as I don't want others to feel or have to think they need to fight my battle that i have to go against every day. People really need to understand the impact of mental health more, the impact it has on someone, the fact that to much pressure or to much weight can finally make someone crumble and when that happens they have to climb back up again. Yes that is me now. I have had everything thrown at me in one go. I have had a death in my family, my health, my job, everything that could possible break someone or cause the heart break or soul crushing,mind breaking, thing has hit me, i have gone upstairs and just cried, i have gone upstairs to get clothes, get ready and cried, walked to the stairs and cried because right now i am broken and right now i don't know how to fix it because i'm shattered into a million pieces. but its ok to not be ok. its ok to struggle its ok to cry its ok to call out for help...

Alina didn’t choose to have her powers taken from her and she didn’t intend for them to be lost. You can’t say Alina chose her ending when the ending was deliberately forced on her without her consent, and she is actively upset by this.

It has been said before and I will say it again:

Alina explicitly wants her power in the books. She has conflicting feelings on it, which is normal, but does on multiple occasions admit to herself as well as others that she likes the power, that she wants it, and that she does not wish to lose it.

This is not due to a lack of conceptualizing Alina liking her powers and Alina’s greed for power as separate things. This has nothing to do with Alina’s greed. Outside of Alina’s greed for power, she comes to love this part of herself she neglected all her life because she was raised by people who could not understand her and who taught her to be wary of her own people and culture, so much so that she subconsciously avoided dealing with who she actually was.

Equating Alina’s power with her greed is exactly what those oppressing grisha do in justification for their hate crimes. You are using the same logic as a cast of people set on genocide and oppression. Not to mention the direct connection between grisha being based on jewish persecution and how the thing that defines grisha is equated with greed, which is a highly common antisemitic depiction of jewish people.

Alina is the ethnic jew raised by goyim. She is the repressed queer child of homophobic parents. She is everybody who only got to realize and express themselves after finding and connecting with their community late in life.

A story about a persecuted minority hunted because of what makes them different ending with your main character, who is a part of that minority, losing that piece of themselves and being forced to assimilate, is incredibly problematic. And anybody who makes this criticism about “Alina choosing” forgets that Alina is a character who’s only choices are those made for her by the person who wrote her.

Another thing that people constantly misrepresent is that Alina is not happy to be stripped of her powers at the end, and explicitly expresses sadness, grief, rage, and anger about the loss of her powers. This is separate from her finding happiness despite her grief, but the grief never goes away. Which means that anybody saying she was happy to lose her powers or chose to do so is factually incorrect. Her agency is stripped from her in the end.

She doesn’t get to choose the peaceful life because the peaceful life is chosen for her. This is not a natural ending to a meaningful character arc of self realization. This is the regressive and brutal shafting of a character who’s arc was abused at every turn, and who’s actual development was walked backwards. Not because of her powers but because she is prevented from ever finding peace with her powers by the narrative.

She doesn’t have to fight a war ‘because of her powers’. She has to fight a war because her people are fucking oppressed. Laying the blame on what makes her different instead of the people who have singled her out because she is different indicates a severe lack of understanding in regards to racism, persecution, and oppression.

Her powers didn’t become so corrupt that they failed her in the end. She didn’t see the consequences and choose peace to avoid them because she wasn’t allowed to see anything at all. Her path was decided for her before she could even look down the other.

People focus on Alina and her powers because that is the story. It is a story about realizing something crucial about yourself that has been kept from you and repressed your whole life. It is an incredibly important story to tell. It is a coming of age story about self realization and self actualization and finding agency after a life where you realize you had none.

Blaming Alina being grisha for why she is stripped of her grishaness is fundamentally flawed argument. If the greed for power was what was supposed to be punished, then she would only have lost that which she sought in her greed. And if a balance needed to be reached, then there would be just as many sun summoners as shadow summoners in the world. Because she lost more than that and because of the discordance in thematic symbolism, the message becomes a punishment not for “greed” (which shouldn’t have even been the message in the first place for a plot and setting like this), but for something else. It becomes a punishment for her being grisha and coming to love and accept herself for it. It becomes a punishment of reveling in one’s difference. It becomes a statement about living outside of the boxes society tries to place people in. It becomes a message about oppression and assimilation on the side of oppression and assimilation.

The most important criticism about the ending will always be about the framing of Alina losing her powers. Alina choosing peace and love over power as a message would only have been able to work if Alina had been able to choose it. And to do so she would have had to choose it when she still had her powers. That is the only progression her developmental arc of “choosing peace and love” could have taken if it didn’t want to become regressive and strip her completely of her agency.

I’m a punching bag that people take all their bad moods out on and have to simply get over it. Not allowed to stay upset, not allowed to argue. Just have to be okay with it because they’re having a bad day. Have to forgive and forget. It hurts me. Hurts that when I do the same I am yelled at and scolded. That’s what I deserve I suppose. I’m sad. I’m having such a time mentally today, this sucks.

The bad batch has some of the shallowest writing I've seen in ages. The wrong character interactions get the attention, while the audience is left with a "tell, don't show" style of narrative storytelling that just leaves people unsatisfied left right and center. Hunter is upset because he feels guilty (a generous read imo) for letting omega get captured while Crosshair was the one to escape with her. Hunter is not mad at Crosshair for his decision to choose the Empire, which led to Tech's death. Hunter is not mad that Crosshair joined the regime that literally mind controlled him into attempting to set them on fire.

Omega afaik never had a solid, positive interaction with Crosshair the way she did with the rest of the bad batch all during seasons one and two. Crosshair tried multiple times to kill her, under influence of the chip. He objectively knew this and still chose the Empire. Omega also objectively knew this and forgives him anyways? And still has faith in him? She was hurt over his decision to stay, but never harbored any fear or resentment. Just pure and total love. And now she's guiding him through dealing with his trauma by meditating on sunset-lit beaches.

Wrecker is still a non-character who doesn't lead and hardly participates in any meaningful way in conversations. I don't recall him having any extensive conversations with any of the other batchers. I remember Tech being snappy with him, and Crosshair saying he has a tiny mind back in season 1. He has cute moments with Omega, but doesn't get developed outside. He doesn't get developed at all, really, besides following the narrow track of the trope set out for him.

The entire emotional arc of the series is dedicated to everyone around Crosshair forgiving him for his choice to join the Empire, but...he's never once thus far actually seemed remorseful. Does he condemn the Empire's violence? Does he look sad or regretful that he got so many of Howzer's men killed on Ryloth? Does he say "I hate what the Empire did to clones, I hate that they used chips on us, I hate that they made me oppress people throughout the galaxy, I hate that the Empire is a violent oppressive regime hurting innocents"? No. He says "The Empire wasn't loyal to me." He doesn't justify what he did, but he definitely doesn't regret it.

(Which is funny because soon afterwards, Rex is able to sow the seeds of doubt into Wolffe's mind that the Empire is bad because they're making him hunt a child.)

And the writers do the laziest thing in the world by having this potentially massive conflict between two characters and using rescue/saving their life as a stand in for a real conversation. Crosshair saves Hunter from the ice worm, they nod, and now they're chill/more chill. They present this as if anything else was a viable option, as if Crosshair would have reasonably or realistically left Hunter to get eaten by the giant ice worm. Then they frame Hunter and Crosshair's mistakes (for the former, I have no idea what) as on par with one another. After their non-argument, Crosshair saves Howzer's life (?), they nod, and that's it. Forgiven.

Halfway through the season and the writing still feels just as unbalanced as it did in season 1. Multiple people keep talking about how they feel like coworkers and roommates with guns rather than brothers. The writers do a better job saying the word loyalty than actually showing it. The majority of the emotional burden is being put on Omega, the only prominent female character in the series and a child. Why is she the emotional support group for a group of grown men? It's just classic misogyny. I'm amazed that type of trope even reared its head again, it's been so long since I've seen it.

Even the writers don't seem to know how to express the batchers' supposed love for one another. No, saving each other's lives is not proof of a deep love or even respect for one another. That's bare minimum. That's SoP. Them leaving each other to die would be the extreme thing, not the other way around. They hardly mention Tech. They had a forced-feeling "hang our heads in silence at the mention of tech's name", and every time after that he's been mentioned as far as his usefulness to the squad. Maybe the second half of the season will have people actually confront Crosshair about Tech. The "Don't have the heavy emotional conversations" thing has been a problem since The Clone Wars, unfortunately. Pretend Teth didn't happen. Pretend Umbara and the Kadavo arc didn't happen. Don't show Rex's reaction to Ahsoka leaving at ALL. Don't show Omega informing Crosshair of Tech's death, which is WILD to me.

Some people claim that the Bad Batch have had six or so months to grieve and mourn, and they're seasoned soldiers who've experienced loss and death before, so they're used to this. The former I can see, but the latter? Who would they have been losing? They're not connected to other clones, rarely worked with them, and never liked them. What losses have they fielded beforehand? They don't even act like 99 or share his values.

I know I'm not alone in this, and at this rate I'm probably beating a dead horse, but it bears repeating: Crosshair hasn't condemned Empire violence, he's only condemned how they treat him in particular. This is a dangerous way to present fascism and why people choose fascist organization/regimes. There's absolutely a personal element to it. Arrogance. Ego. Material or emotional insecurity. But there's an external part as well: desire for control, hierarchy, order, violence. Fascists understand that the ideology is violent. That's why they join the regime. They want and support the subjugation of those they believe deserve it. In real life, this is people of color, women, disabled people, immigrants, the "degenerates" of society, and others. In Star Wars, that's the aliens and the enslaved, the "traitors" and the Rebels. Fascists being "lead astray" or "misguided" by thoughts of loyalty or personal power come secondary to oppressing others.

Maybe they'll address that in the second half of the season. It's a generous read, but I don't want to make any calls til I've seen everything. Unfortunately, every interaction Crosshair has with people has been designed to service their forgiveness of him, all without him actually apologizing for anything. Yes, he must explicitly apologize. He joined a fascist regime after they made him do terrible, heinous things. The text tells us that Crosshair only left because the Empire wasn't loyal to him. Anything other than a clear apology would be bad and frankly dangerous writing.

Negative regressors ily. You’re doing great and your regression is no less pure or real or valid than anyone else’s. It’s ok to feel small when you’re upset and sad. I’m sending comforting thoughts your way and hoping you know how cool and special you are.

A followup

Hi, If any of you saw my most recent blog post, you'll see I've had some recent "trauma dump" worthy material. I've deleted it if you've not seen it (the short is I changed my name legally and my family took it in one of the worst ways possible) and I've kind of let "Teen me" pilot for a while and voice her angst and upset. I have a new piercing (left nostril) and short red hair (the "short" part was my mother's insistence - regardless of the dysphoria). Its been hard for me to actually regress outside of the though as I don't really feel "safe" to do so anymore. I'll try regressing later outside my teen years and hope it helps.
