#tales of feral

[exile-of-dathomir]

[Feral is being carried, held up on either side by his arms. The world swims as he sways between the nightsisters holding him up. He keeps knocking into them, feeling the drag of soft red robes on his skin. He tries to get his feet under him, but can't. There's a doorway in front of them. They stop. They wait. He can't breathe. 'Bring in the prisoner' he hears, and it echoes horribly, over and over, reverberating like a sheet of plastic undulating as it's shaken.]

[The doorway starts to melt wider like a quick burning candle, and every inch of his soul screams refusal. No. NO. He doesn't want to go in there, he doesn't want to go in there, he doesn't want to- hedoesntwanttogo-]

[It had been-]

[Feral comes awake with a gasp, hearts racing and throat dry. He sits up and pulls the vibroblade from under his pillow, holding it close to make himself feel better. Feel more in control. He had been dreaming. It was... just a bad dream. It's fine. He's fine. The dream had been-]

[He can't remember. A door? Something about a prisoner?]

[A headache blooms on the left side of his head as he digs at the thought, hoping it's another memory fragment. Was he imprisoned at some point? By the nightsisters? Maybe, maybe. His transgression must have been terrible for them to be so formal about it.]

[The restless nightbrother thinks. He thinks hard, but the rest of the details are lost in that place between waking and sleep. Is this why he can't go home... he did something wrong? So horribly wrong that Rend had delivered him into exile instead of-]

[Feral wishes desperately to know what he had done.]

[With a long, draining sigh he puts the knife back under his pillow and gets up to get a glass of water. He's unsteady on his feet as he walks up the stairs, and his hands shake slightly as he pulls a glass from the cabinet. It's just after five in the morning. He'd slept... four hours? Good enough. He follows the water with a sonic shower, and the sonic with chai spiced caf. By the time an hour has rolled around he's steady again, some amount of smile back in place and languid grace restored.]

[He relieves the chef droid at the cafe's front counter just in time for the early morning crowd to start trickling in as the late night crowd goes wandering out.]

Before domestication comes a good, thorough hosing down

So, uh. This was supposed to be a wet beast wednesday and "stinky sewer troll" joke in one. And then it got entirely away from me. I continue ignoring canon and living in my made up timeline of Severing Hell's Leash (if you look closely, you can see Angor wear his ring!), and in that timeline he needs a shower.

Also version without the water below the cut

Inuyasha & Demisexuality

i think halfway into writing this i thought about just cramming all my thoughts into a semi-coherent rant due to a combination of a.) lack of access to decent translations of the manga and b.) paranoia about over-analyzing scenes and coming off as delusional (i think by now it's probably too late to thwart that claim) buuut this headcanon in particular is near and dear to me so i want to try and get as in depth as possible.

what is demisexuality?

in simple terms, demisexuality is when an individual doesn't experience primary attraction - that is, the sort of attraction based on immediate observable (often physical) characteristics - and instead only experiences secondary attraction first: the type of attraction that forms after the development of a deep emotional bond.

inuyasha and kikyo

this aforementioned term perfectly describes inuyasha and his relationships with the only women he's ever loved romantically. you could make the claim that his inability to feel primary attraction first stems from his trust issues and not inherent sexual orientation. and to that, i would disagree - he and kikyo develop an emotional bond despite an unspoken lack of trust, which may have improved had naraku not meddled in their lives. still, both find solace in each other's similarities, loneliness, and "outlier" status (though the similarities are in isolation only, if i'm being completely honest) and establish a connection that persists post-revival.

inuyasha eventually did start to feel primary attraction to kikyo during their time together - in the second chapter of the manga, when he compares kagome to her, he states that kikyo "looked pretty."

[source - viz. i haven't been in this fandom long, but what i've gathered is that there are a lot of mis-translations of this manga, even from viz. since i have yet to buy physical copies of the manga and don't have an account for the site, i'm going to be using fan-scans for the rest of these, which hopefully won't really affect what i'm trying to convey since i'll be looking at character expressions rather than dialogue for most of them.]

i'd also note the order in which he lists those traits: kikyo looked intelligent and pretty. her intelligent appearance is the first part of her he remembers, which i think underscores his priorities in this regard. he values things like intelligence and companionship - facets that come to light when developing secondary attraction towards someone - more than aspects of primary attraction.

inuyasha and kagome

as mentioned before, demisexuals don't feel physical attraction before establishing a tight emotional bond. the most blatant examples i could think of this were any instances in which inuyasha sees kagome nude and his difference in reaction - in particular, during the yura of the hair and togenkyo arcs, which are roughly seventy-three chapters apart. there are two new moons in that time, and from that we can say at least two months have passed.

chapter six: yura of the hair

kagome's bathing below him, and i'm sorry, but this expression literally screams "zero fucks given." he does not care in the slightest. not a blush. not a spot of red on his cheeks. not a sweatdrop. not a tee-hee. if i were to describe what he's feeling in this moment i would say "extreme ire." when she uses the sit command on him, it's on the assumption that he's "peeking," but kaede understands that it's actually because inuyasha is trying to steal a shard of the shikon jewel.

"huh?" - he sounds genuinely confused that she reached that conclusion, even though he was quite literally peering over the cliff's edge in what obviously has very perverse connotations. it's almost like he doesn't understand why kagome would think his actions come from a place of sexual attraction because that sort of thing just isn't on his mind at all, and he doesn't get why it would be in the first place.

another extremely blatant example can be see in miroku's introductory chapter: chapter 51, the delinquent priest:

do i even have to say anything. this scene also further emphasizes my previous point - before, the only reason he was there was to try and steal kagome's jewel shard. if his true intentions had been driven by primary attraction, this would have been an opportune moment to "peep." in his words, however, he just isn't interested. note that he could have said something along the lines of "i wouldn't do something like that" (which, if he was attracted to her in that way from the start, wouldn't have done anyway) but specifically i'm not interested. the primary attraction is not there in the slightest. at least, not until:

chapter eighty two: fateful night in togenkyo

the scene i'm talking about needs no introduction, but for context: kagome's half-freaking out after having woken up in a sake bath. inuyasha breaks down the door to come and rescue her, accidentally seeing her naked in the process. well, i'm sure his reaction won't be that dif-

...it's only one panel-

okay, two-

i think at this point it's fairly obvious that primary attraction has developed. besides the fact that he's spent three panels trying not to look like he's having a quasi allergic reaction, it's been approximately two months since they've met, and by now they've definitely formed the deep emotional bond required for him to begin feeling any primary attraction at all. in fact, the chapter where he tells kagome "there's no replacement for you" - that chapter, where he's vulnerable and honest and opening up to her, strengthening their bond further, (ch. 78, a tender smell) is directly before the togenkyo arc begins, and, thus, just before these scenes occur. these chapters have all been building up secondary attraction, and now that primary attraction is just starting to show up.

several chapters later we have this iconic panel from 173:

this is such a look of awe, as though he's gazing up at a goddess. jaw dropped, eyes-wide, words trailing off awe. he's entranced. fully head-over-heels in love, feeling both primary and secondary attraction in regards to kagome, and this trend only continues throughout the entirety of the manga.

conclusion + extra thoughts

my belief in this headcanon comes from not just the evidence depicted above, but because i just related a ton reading those scenes. i found myself just nodding along (as someone who's demisexual themselves!) plus, since ace-spectrum representation is so rare, it's nice to see it reflected in a character whose story and relationships i love dearly.

Aragorn's surprised to learn Arwen is Elrond's daughter in the RotK appendices not only because elven lifespans means 'whoops, everyone just forgot the little mortal boy needed to be told Elrond has a third child!' but also because on the rare occasions when he heard Elladan and Elrohir talking about some girl named "Arwen," it was them talking about her in a familial way and in relation to how a boy like Estel would have felt about her - i.e. an annoying little girl: "augh remember when arwen threw our quivers onto the roof, all because we wouldn't play goblin tea party with her?" elladan says

"what is goblin tea party even supposed to be?" asks child estel

"making mud and sticks into little cakes and finding more creative ways to insult the other person," elrohir says

"and if you can't come up with a good insult, you get a mud pie to the face," elladan says. "what's she up to nowadays with grandma?"

elrohir says, "last i heard she was learning how to make lembas from three acorns, a burnt doily, and the ground bone-meal of a squirrel. grandma galadriel says you can never be too prepared."

"that's first age, trauma, that," elladan sighs. they go back to teaching estel how to follow deer trails and skin rabbits.

and Aragorn files this information away as 'ARWEN: Feral Sinda (Avari?) (Elven???) Girl-shaped Creature' that Elrond's family are for some unimaginable reason attached to. Then a decade later he sees Arwen through the trees and it's a ✨meet cute✨ cause he thinks she's like Lúthien, blah blah he's obviously smitten, he puffs out his chest and gives her his Big Boy chieftain name and title. She smiles and nods politely.

And then she says her name and relation to Elrond and Aragorn screams a little inside and has to scramble for pretending like he hasn't heard of her, or even that Elrond's family are immortal, in order to cover the shock that he would have expected her to come crawling out of the underbrush a wild preteen gremlin witch with twigs in her hair, and is instead the Ladiest Lady that ever Ladied. Confessing that her brothers have been sharing embarassing childhood stories with you, the mortal foster-brother, is not first date material.

Ok. I watched the new special and it was SO good. I like the idea of ​​Shadybug and Claw Noir being redeemed. They were never actually evil they were just broken.. Marinette’s "evil" version looks like she's tired of Chloe’s bullying and everything around her. She actually wanted to have friends like her "original" self and that's really sad.

But what about Claw Noir? He couldn't cope with the loss of his mother and thought that his father didn't care. And you know what's most interesting? In fact, Claw Noir and his “original” self are very similar. Adrien, too, in a sense, cannot cope with the loss of his mother and even thought about making a wish a couple of times. And due to the fact that his father practically does not devote time to him, he thinks that he doesn’t care, although he used to think that this is not so. And even in the Christmas special, because of the loss of his mother, Adrien began to hate Christmas and even almost destroyed the tree. And I think if he had not known Ladybug, he would have withdrawn into himself long ago. He loved her very much and didn’t want to disappoint her. And I think that because of Ladybug Adrien still hasn’t lost hope.

And that’s why the season 5 finale still haunts me. And it's all about Ladybug/Marinette. She didn't tell Adrien the truth about his father... On the one hand this is good but on the other... Cat Noir always takes it hard when Ladybug hides something from him. So hard that he almost gave up being a superhero. And this happened more than once. And now imagine what will happen if Adrien finds out that his father was a Hawkmoth all that time. He will definitely feel betrayed. And it’s not even about the truth that his father turned out to be a villain, but about the fact that everyone are hiding something from him again. Adrien will definitely be disappointed in Ladybug/Marinette...

I feel bad for Adrien(

Is there a fandom word for a supporting character that is rarely if ever a topic for fandom but that you are absolutely obsessed with?

I'm not talking about a glup shitto. I mean a character that everyone knows about but who isn't really anyone's favorite character. Fics centered on them are rare and ones that actually explore them in an interesting way are even rarer. No one really kins them or draws them. No one brings them up outside of discussing other characters.

Yeah, whatever that is.

But then...

A piece of media comes out that heavily features that character... and people finally talk about them.... you are in heaven for a few short months... and then it goes back to how it was.

Oh, sure, maybe there will be more people who like that character now. Maybe there will be an uptick in fics that give you a small backlog to read. Maybe you'll even get a nice catalog of fanart that will fuel your imagination for a little while.

But no matter what; that character won't get as much attention as you think they deserve.

Anyway that's how I feel about Count Fanon-first-name-Yan Dooku.
