Going to obsess over Husk and Alastor for a second

ok. ok. OK. so. more on why alastor and husk's dynamic makes my head spin. is because, on paper, I have. NO idea,,, how they work??? they have the absolute most clashing personalities I have ever seen, and yet alastor chose husk and continues to choose him as a confidant and a co-conspirator and workhorse, even though he has much more obviously like-minded people around him in Rosie, Mimzy, and Niffty. And Husk -- I'm a little more forgiving on Husk's end because a) he has zero choice in his involvement here and b) he's kind of a bleeding heart himself, so I can kind of understand the moments where he looks out for Alastor or shows care outside of the bounds of his contract. But still. I look at them, and I'm just... why????? I'm so intrigued by it.

Because.... listen. What I understand about Husk is this. That he's a very compassionate person at heart, and cares about other people, even though he tries desperately not to. Hell, from the way he acts he seems like more of a true believer in Charlie's ideas for redemption than even Vaggie at times. He has a high degree of empathy and can easily see through people's bullshit (probably part of what makes him a terror at cards). I think at core he's a very sincere person, and this is part of why it is absolutely not in his nature to sugarcoat things, or refrain from speaking his mind. Husk is also a person who demands two things from the people around him - one is to treat him and his boundaries with respect, and this is why he snaps so much at Angel to begin with, and also what made him so furious with Alastor in episode 5. The second thing that Husk demands is honesty and vulnerability from the people around him, and he's openly disdainful of "fake" people. He tells Angel outright that he would treat him better if he were "real" -- his respect and affection for Angel was contingent to an extent on Angel being willing to drop his mask.

So you take this person, and stick him with Alastor, the fakest of fake motherfuckers in Hell, who can't stand the concept of being vulnerable and whose basic operating philosophy is "wear a mask smile so that you can hide your true feelings and always seem in control." Alastor, a person who is so desperately hungry for respect and power that he goes ballistic over what he sees as disrespect (even if it's just plain honesty), who pathologically needs the upper hand, who is casually and constantly disrespectful, who showboats relentlessly, who spits out one liners and strikes a pose even when he's a hair's breadth from death and fleeing the scene. THIS guy.

...who hand selected as one of his closest companions a person whose philosophy and personality is diametrically opposed to his own. I think... that says something about alastor, though it's hard to say what exactly that is, yet. maybe he likes watching husk "I lost the ability to love years ago sike I'm falling in love again" care and then suffer for caring and start the cycle all over again, similarly to how he said that he wanted to watch charlie try her hardest with the hotel and fail. on the other hand, as much as Alastor tries to stay aloof from the hotel's residents (not him looking over them all from a proverbial theater box in episode 8 as they prepare to face execution day), I don't think he's lying about his affection for them. maybe there's a small part of him that's looking to be surprised, or even proven wrong. maybe he thinks he'll be happy either way, and that's part of why he doesn't act the saboteur. or maybe there's even another element to it... alastor doesn't only court respect and fear, he courts adoration, and deliberately looks for and soaks up the affection thrown his way by charlie and the rest. maybe alastor is attracted to people who can't help but genuinely care for him, even against their better judgment.

#and I guess husk DOES like magic and showboating so maybe alastor has what... one good point in his favor? the mind boggles #hazbin hotel #hazbin hotel spoilers #alastor #husk #I think maybe alastor and husk's relationship is like a microcosm of alastor's relationship to the hotel at large #certainly husk seems more closely aligned with the hotel itself than with alastor #ahem. anyway

honestly i don't think people make fun of this line enough at all. i don't like to use the word "cringe" generally bc i think it's so overused but idfk how else to describe the agonizing secondhand embarrassment i get from reading this shit. obviously this is an attempt by johns to include some level of depth to his joker(s) and it just absolutely does not work. it reads more like a goofy satirical parody of modern age comics than anything that should have been published. like this is genuinely fucking embarrassing geoff johns wants to be alan moore so badly but unfortunately for him moore has more talent in his goddamn pinky nail than johns does in his entire wretched body. god i hate this fucking shitstain of a story so much. i could write a damn multi-page paper breaking down individually everything i despise about three jokers but frankly it's a waste of my time and also even thinking about this is bad for my blood pressure

anyway!

have this stupid thing

sometimes i'll find someone posting AMAZING art elsewhere like on Twitter, and then full of excitement i'll go and find their Tumblr, and they gave up posting long ago - their art got barely any traction, no reblogs, no community and it's like NO COME BACK GIVE ME ANOTHER CHANCE!!! I SWEAR I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE WITHERING AWAY IN A CORNER OF THIS WEBSITE, LET ME MAKE IT RIGHT! I CAN SINGLEHANDEDLY BE YOUR CHEERLEADER, I'LL REBLOG QUEUE AND SCHEDULE I'LL TURN ON BLOG NOTIFS COME BACK COME BACK COME BACK-

had an epiphany while thinking about the final finale and suddenly remembered writing this scrap of a script when I was practicing to start a project. this is from May 2022

---

[Three spotlights on the forestage, two empty with the stage left spotlight containing an enderchest. Eret's voice booms from offstage.]

Eret: No griefing.

[Fundy steps into the stage right spotlight, waving a burnt L'Manberg flag. After a moment, he stops and holds the flag at his side in freeze frame.]

Eret: No stealing.

[Tommy races onstage to the enderchest, disc in hand. He opens the chest, slams the disc inside and shuts it, then holds that position.]

[As they speak, Eret steps into the centre spotlight, holding an impressive sword and shield, smiling.]

Eret: No killing the dragon.

[Lights, music, etc.]

#I EVEN SPECIFICALLY HAD THAT IT WOULD BE ERET. LOOK AT PAST ME GO #ahem. anyway #i said i would never share those practice scripts. slowly i appear to be showing them all #dream smp #crim writes #eret #tommyinnit #fundy

i am once again astounded at the bsd fandom's ability to make everything about skk when, in fact, it has very little to do with skk

#this is about beast. #like okay i see the allure of beast!skk but seriously??? it's way overhyped #you just want to make everything about the only two characters you can bring yourself to care about when it is #NOT ABOUT THEM #BEAST ISN'T ABOUT SKK. BEAST IS BARELY EVEN ABOUT SSKK. #BEAST IS ABOUT THE INHERENT TRAGEDY OF HAVING A SIBLING AND WHAT DESTRUCTION THAT CAN CAUSE #beast is about what core characteristics of a person remain the same in every universe #and what is changed based on environment and circumstance #beast is about the unimaginable power and danger of platonic love #beast is about showing how the people around you help you grow - for better or for worse - and changing even just one person #in your constant vicinity can have rippling effects on the person you become in their absence. or in the presence of someone else. #beastskk is going to go straight to the top of my hate list THIS AIN'T ABOUT THEM!!!! THIS IS ABOUT LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE #ahem. anyway #i'm gonna get cancelled over this just wait #grace reads bsd

i do like comparing the fan translation of the fsa manga to the viz translation sometimes because i like seeing the differences in the implications and how that plays out later in the story. in this specific instance i'm looking at the difference in translations in ch2 when shadow is about to strike green down and the fairy appears and drives off shadow with her light and what interests me about it is the difference in shadow's words after he's like "argh the maiden still has power even after i sealed her"—in the viz translation, he says the (infamous) "light!! i hate... ...the cursed... ...light!" while in the fan translation he says "light!! light... i'm afraid... damn..." and both these sentences are accompanied by him clutching his shaking wrist. and quite frankly i do love the bluntness of the fan translation more because while shadow being scared is IMPLIED with the shaking (since he shakes like a chihuahua when the dark cloud scares the shit out of him again with light magic and he admits he's afraid AGAIN later on) i think there's a kind-of sort-of implied thing going on that you can see better with the fan translation and that thing is that the light scares shadow far more than it hurts him. which was quite literally the point of zelda's words to him at the end ("do you really think the light will hurt you?"). like it CAN hurt him obviously (see: The Fucking Four Sword) but when it comes to light by itself the only thing holding him back is his own absolute terror because he was having like seven panic attacks rolled into one anytime a light source got anywhere near him.

AND THEN THE LIGHT DIDN'T EVEN KILL HIM WHEN HE "DIED". that was the POINT. he's link's shadow and when he disappeared into the light he quite literally reformed the second link was whole again. yes he lost the tangible body given to him via the power of the dark mirror (which could honestly be traded out for another power source) but he is Still Alive. he is still HIMSELF. he walks in the light alongside link and zelda and it doesn't harm him and he's smiling and waving a little thumbs-up in the air. there MUST be light for a shadow to be cast in the first place. light is as integral to him as it is to link and zelda. that's the POINTTTTTTT

#i really think he does eventually get a body again because the manga very clearly implies that his story is not over by sheer virtue of the #fact that HE! IS! STILL! ALIVE!!!!!!! #ahem. anyway #fsa #txt
