“His destructive programming is taking effect. He will be irresistibly drawn to large cities, where he will back up sewers, reverse street signs, and steal everyone's left shoe.”

Jumba Jookiba is based on Jumba from Lilo & Stitch. He is a 30 year old alien, scientist, and uses he/him pronouns. He has no powers. 

Jumba speaks in what sounds like a thick eastern European accent that originates from his home planet. He can speak and understand many galactic languages and is learning Earth languages too. 

Jumba can be unnecessarily loud at times when he gets excited, frustrated or just forgets the appropriate volume to speak at. He is very passionate about the work he does and the people he cares for. He is very eccentric and his mannerisms can be over dramatized. 

Jumba is naturally curious and inquisitive about Earth and the environment he currently lives in. Although he doesn’t have a preference about where he lives, he is still conducting a thorough investigation of Evermore to understand how he came to be here and why. 

Jumba has all his memories from before Evermore. 

Jumba likes to consider himself as a father figure. He knows and understands the damage he caused Stitch and is adamant in his efforts to try and mend anything broken between them. Jumba is trying his best to be someone worthy of respect from Stitch and maybe even someday love. 

He understands he can never be who Nani & Lilo lost but if he could be a small percentage of the Father they deserve, to all three of them, he will have achieved a remarkable dream. Jumba just wants to protect all of his self-proclaimed children and bring them home.

While Jumba’s inventions are quite successful his attempts to repair everyday Earth items are not. Any effort to try and fix a broken toaster or busted hair-dryer only ever lead to static shocks and disappointing results. But sometimes his family let him try anyway. 

Jumba loves crop circles--and yes while Nani banned him from making them it doesn’t stop him researching them on the inter web to see which alien has left a funny message.

Jumba adores humans and finds their way of living so interesting. He can get very invested into their lives and even now as he is posing as a human to fit in, he is loving every moment of it. Especially the humans on Say Yes to the Dress; Atlanta. 

Jumba is getting better at being a good person but he still can have chaotic tendencies and impulsive invention ideas. Luckily for the people of Evermore he has a team of people who love him enough to stop him from following through before thinking.

Danny villain ark .2.5

The justice league were in a panic!

Klarion the witch boy was being more of a threat than ever.

Before it was challenging but do-able to take him down.

Now not so much.

His plans were getting better, harder to figure out, his fighting style was getting stronger harder to doge and harder to hit.

EVEN TEEKL WAS HARDER TO HIT

They coundnt even figure out why, one day he was the same man chid throwing tantrums over not getting what he wants, the next he was getting better at teking what he wants.

Theres no way he could do this alone, everyone knew that, so they all came to the same conclusion.

He was getting help

From who? They were desperate to find out

But they must be an expert at planning, a genuis at another level and an evil that bends a chaos lord to their will.

.

.

.

Danny sneezed and thought absently thinking " someones talking about me"

He didnt get far into the thought as a dozen baloons launched towards him, dodging them they hit the ground showing there was hot souse in them.

The sounds of klarions laughter followed

Danny got up with a glint in his eyes

This. Mean. War

the 'the last time' teaser is making me so nervous but also made me think of more angst ideas for clarisse, so I raise you a thought:

something something about the reader sacrificing themselves for clarisse (could be like taking a deadly hit for her during battle or making a bargain with some god for clarisse's safety, which would be very og plot non-compliant, etc.) and the reader instead of really dying (or could die for angst reasons) just getting transported into the underworld/or tartarus to be used as a bargaining chip for the gods (very sally jackson coded) and so clarisse kind of has to get the reader out and rescue them (codependent/overprotective clarisse when reader dies: 😦)

I just can't help of kind of like a eurydice and orpheus coded experience (yes I know I could have gone for achilles x patroclus type of thought), so very talk by hozier coded.

been quaking in my bed yesterday evening while reading the teasers (like I'm so excited but at the same time the last time is making me worried). Your works are a real masterpiece I'm so excited for them!!! <33

holy fucking shit oh my god

oh this is EVIL it’s EVIL and i LOVE you

this will take me a sec to plan out but OH MY GOF YOURE A GENUIS THANK YOU FUCK

Arc is a Genuis Au: What happened with the Curious Cat for Penny to react like that? You haven't show the Cat doing anything with Jaune and Penny. Did they meet before Alyx and Lewis showed up? How were Penny and Jaune able to tell the Cat was desperate to escape? Lastly wasn't Alyx hesitating what caused the Cat to turn evil?

If a speaking cat who is known to be untrustworthy was speaking to who you are almost considering your daughter, you too would be running. Even more so when the almost daughter in question just disappeared.

It’s a fairly common thing to hear that monsters, especially in Gothic literature, represent societal fears of the era they came from. While there is a lot to be said for this point, I think the reason so many people (myself included) love monsters so much is because, almost universally, they represent ‘otherness’ and their scariness is supposed to come from the fact that they are unnatural, vastly different from humans, incomprehensible, ext. Anyway, I think it’s interesting that this otherness is so pervasive in gothic literature monsters because one of the hallmarks of gothic horror is a sense of isolation, usually in setting but sometimes our protagonists are also just very isloated from society.  

Frankenstein’s creature is considered a monster within the first moments of his life- “...but now that I had finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless horror and disgust filled my heart,” Victor writes. The creature is outcasted by everyone he encounters, though he’s done nothing wrong and has even helped people, in the cases of the DeLacey family and the little girl. Nothing he does can erase the fact that he is so fundementally different from everyone else that they will always hate him. “I am malicious because I am miserable,” he says. He is a monster in the world’s eyes for existing, and so he truly becomes a monster to try and get back at the world that has caused him so much pain. 

Edward Hyde is a fascinating example of this otherness because, at first glance, he is just another fully-evil monster. And while I think it’s fair to say that he isn’t a good person, it’s also fair to say that, since he is the physical embodiment of everything Jekyll had tried to repress about himself, he also is ‘other’. “Many a man would have even blazoned such irregularities as I was guilty of; but from the high views that I had set before me, I regarded and hid them with an almost morbid sense of shame.” Here we see that, even from a young age, Jekyll thinks of his ‘irregularities’ as marking him different from the people of high society that he is surrounded by. There is also a very interesting line later in the book- “All human beings, as we meet them, are commingled out of good and evil; and Edward Hyde, alone in the ranks of mankind, was pure evil.” I think it’s interesting because this is what is supposed to drive home how bad Hyde is- he is different from everyone else. There is no other person on earth like him. Even though this line tells us he’s evil, I’ve always thought it presented him in a really sympathetic way. 

The Phantom is like Frankenstein’s creature in that the text is pretty forward about ‘otherness’. “Poor, unhappy Erik! Shall we pity him? Shall we curse him? He only asked to be ‘some one’, like everybody else! But he was too ugly! And he had to hide his genuis or use it to play tricks with, when, with an ordinary face, he would have been one of the most distinguished of mankind! He had a heart that could have held the empire of the world; and, in the end, he had to content himself with a cellar.” All throughout his life, despite his great skill in many areas, Erik was ostracized (and in many cases, almost killed) by everyone he met, because he was different. No amount of artist genius or human kindness could overcome that. Thus, like Frankenstein’s creature, he became violent and angry. 

I think they should all start a support group bc heaven knows they need it

Uh... Jell-o... have we mentioned how evil you are?

And you said KP suffers the least bc he got the least votes... And if I recall correctly, Luigi got the most votes.... so if having the most votes means you suffer the most... and considering what KP is going through is the LEAST of what's going to happen...

JELL-O I SWEAR LUIGI IS HURTING ENOUGH!! WHAT DO YOU PLAN TO DO WITH THE BOI?? IF YOU PLAN TO DO SOMETHING BEFORE HE AND MARIO REUNITE... OR IF YOU PLAN TO HURT MARIO AFTERWARDS TO HURT LUIGI.... WHAT WORSE THING IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE BOI?? AND LUMALEE??

And is it weird that I'm worried about what the alternate scenes would have been and yet I want to see them at the same time when the comic's done? Jell-o, you MAD EVIL GENUIS MONSTER.

My mind has just realized something fantastical. I’ma GENUIS.

Sephiroth is called both a One-Winged Angel, and The Demon of Wutai. He’s both. He’s both! He’s a demonic angel! He’s good and evil, yet those titles are swapped based on his actual morality! He’s a Demon in Crisis Core and an Angel in, like, not Crisis Core! Ahh what symbolism! I think!

#my mind is a giant Windows 10 buffer screen #realizes things too late #but hey! neat! #kinda? maybe? a sliver? nah? yeah ok #I guess it shows he always had that seed of *mermaid man voice* EVIL in there since the beginning #ffvii #sephiroth #crisis core #fallen angels confuse me! how could he be a fallen angel if he was already a demon! #sephiroth just like walked up the escalator that was going down #is demon of Wutai canon? I think it is #either way it’s definitely applied to his CC side #why do they call him an angel tho like why not one-winged crow or something #raven? #feathery dragon?

[girlgenius1111]

You said you like to keep these things in your asks to read them again - figured it’s the least I can do to try and show how much I appreciate your writing! I apologize in advance for the absolutely excessive length of this, but I’m not well know for my brevity, unfortunately.

Solstrale being so excited at IKEA - my HEART! Mapi is giving such golden retriever energy in the store I am obsessed. Solstrale starting to tear up in the store and yet Ingrid being so gentle and kind, this is simply everything this girl deserves and more. THE SUN MAP MUG? UR AN EVIL GENUIS I LOVE YOU (pun absolutely intended)

“Mapi was just happy to be there” had me giggling as I sat in bed.

“You weren’t…loveable” oh but baby you so are, and you never had to do anything to be deserving of that love. None of us do.

Your ability to write these little splashes of humor in serious moments is just…wistfully wonderful. Your ability to write golden retriever Mapi? God tier.

THE TWENTY THREE TATTOO?! Punch in the mf gut I must admit

I must say I wholeheartedly say that I sympathize with Ingrid’s inability to be chill in any situation. Her tumbling into the room asking about the tattoo is cracking me up lol.

The dichotomy of emotion between Ingrid and her sister, Mapi and Solstrale, and Mapi and Ingrid flows so well and is executed perfectly. I’m in complete and utter awe, in the most complete sense of the words! It just ebbs and flows so perfectly

ABSTINENCE IS KEY IM WHEEZING 😭

“You cried yourself to sleep that night, quietly muffling your sobs in your pillow. It was a sadness that plagued you, mixed with hope. Your parents didn’t love you, you were pretty sure of that. But it seemed like, maybe, Ingrid did.” This is gorgeous. Painful, and yet so so hopeful at the same time. The balance of heartbreak and softness is wonderful.

The phone call 💔 The call backs to Mapis experience with the Spanish camps is such a perfect comparison.

“I am never letting that woman near Solstråle again. I don’t care what I have to do. She’s been hurt enough. I won’t let her be hurt anymore.” INGRID FINALLY FUCKING GETS IT PRAISE THE LORD!

“Of course healing isn’t linear” Judas Priest I am genuinely sitting in bed with tears in my fucking eyes.

Okay their father showing up wasn’t at all what I was expecting but I am sat. Oh god…not Solstrale coming in at the worst time PLEASE GOD NO 😭

“You didn’t mean you wanted them to let you go back to Norway. You wanted them to let you go. The tension in the air thickened at this, as both of them realized what you meant.” This poor GIRL. Mapi swearing on fucking INGRID sent me into the stratosphere…oh how much they love her.

“And maybe it was also the desperation inside yourself, too,  and the ache in your heart that you knew you didn’t need to carry anymore.” No words. All I do is fucking write and I have no words to adequately describe how much perfection exists in this one sentence.

Whew. I truly can’t quite put into words how genuinely perfect this is. To reach the level of heartbreak and emotion that you do is just something phenomenal. It’s something special. How you find the moments of light and mix it with those of the dark, all at the same time. You have this most wonderful gift of being able to portray human emotion in such a raw, real way and I am so endlessly grateful that you choose to share it in this little corner of the internet with us. I’ve adored this series and how you’ve crafted these three and their little household, and will always be sat for any future stories you write about these two - or anyone else for that matter.

Thank you so so much for writing this. Dealing with some of my own personal issues with my own mother and reading this is just…its heartbreak and it’s healing all at the same time.

And ofc, thank you to Bailey as well! Who are we without the planners and helpers in our lives - I think I’d lose my head if summer-princess didn’t remind me where I put it sometimes haha!

i am… speechless?

i want to print this comment out, frame it, and put it up in my room. tattoo it onto my body.

it’s crazy to me how comments on my writing can be so eloquent and beautiful, but you always somehow manage to do that.

seriously i read this with the biggest smile on my face.

it means so, so, SO much to me that not only do you read my work… and enjoy it… you have such strong feelings about it. it blows my mind in the best way.

anyway. going to read this everyday for the rest of my life. i appreciate and love you very much.

we don't have enough max hate you say? don't worry anon, im here to supply.

max is the worst. i know pahkitew's whole thing is dumb 'gimmick' characters but max's gimmick makes me SO angry. not even because its a bad gimmick, in fact i'd say its one of the better ideas. some loser dude who thinks hes an evil genuis but is actually a pathethic dumbass? that idea could be done SO well and it could be hilarious. but no. we got shitty grape head max whos not funny, not likeable, stays around WAY too long, and just makes things miserable for everyone around him.

the fact that characters like topher and ella got booted before MAX makes me so mad. they were funny and couldve had cool character arcs but NOOO we need max around so he can be unfunny and annoying!!! fuck fleshing out our actually good characters!!

he messes things up for his team SO often yet over and over again he's not voted off for some stupid ass reason. scarlett, who couldve been such a great character, is dragged down by max's shittyness cuz the writers dont let her do ANYTHING without max.

his design sucks ass. what is he WEARING. why does he have purple hair????? why is his neck so wide?????? he DOESNT LOOK LIKE A TOTAL DRAMA CHARACTER. he looks completely out of place surrounded by the other characters.

overall i hate that ugly little abomination and i want fresh tv to make a public apology for every bringing that thing into existence.

I am cringe, but I am free

Doodles of Jack and my oc (still unsure on the name but I was thinking Shade to keep it on the nose ya know)

I wanted to draw a new older design of Jack since I can never settle on a design (He's like 20-ish)

And the way he'd meet Shade would be during a shen gong wu hunt he'd find them in a cave or a ruin where they're just chilling, like a ghost. They aren't very responsive but Jack's like the very first human they've ever seen.

So Jack thinks that hey, this shadow creature guy could make a great henchmen/lab assistant! So he tells them to stay put.

After he gets his butt kicked by the monks he brings them home and realized they are just a blank slate of a shadow person. He slowly begins to teach them how to be a person (he tries his best he's not the great at being a normal person) and slowly over time Shade gains a sense of self and personality and likes and dislikes.

And Jack is super not used to having another person hanging out with him twenty four seven that doesn't think he's annoying and isn't a ghost.

The years go on and they form a really cool duo of evil boy genuis and his shadow monster accomplice!

And it all culminates to one day Jack realizes he really really likes having Shade around. And he's like 'wtf I have feelings? Romance? ew, but-' and so he panicks and tries to act cool and calm. But he fails miserably and fumbles his words.

Shade doesn't care that he's making a fool of himself, they like his dorky side. Shade knew a while back that Jack had a crush on them because subtly isn't Jack's strongest skill.

And the feeling is mutual is just that neither knows how to confront the idea of going from friends, pals, to romance? Jack chickens out and Shade doesn't know that they can just tell Jack they like him and the rest will sort itself out with time. (They think it's hilarious to see him pining)

And they live happily ever after as an evil duo/eventual partners type deal? It's that dynamic of a monster who's never known companionship learning to be happy and seek out happiness with a person who feels like a social reject and rejects society but also really deep down wants friends and joy too <3

Of all his demonic achievements, fewer things made Crowley as proud of himself as the phenomenon of "waiting on hold".

It was genuis, really. You take a person already in a moderately unpleasant situation - they are being charged for a product they don't want, they need to book a hospital appointment, they are trapped in a labyrinthine web of incomprehensible tax requirements. You then add an intensely unpleasant situation, with the vague but not guaranteed promise that there might, possibly, if they endure the auditory unpleasantess for an hour or so, be a solution to their original problem. It has all the pain of gambling, with none of the possibility of a big win. It's either a small loss or a big loss, and either way you have to stay on the phone.

Overtime, he had perfected the art of making this as unpleasant as possible. More annoying music! Condescending voices, telling you things you already know! Little sounds that sound as though your call has just been answered, but then the music starts again! Please note, on Fridays, our phone lines are switched to an out-of-ours service. If you need to book an appointment, please stay on the line. Did you know you can access more information on our website?

The real innovation, though, had been the machines. Long mazes of Press 1 for English, Press 1 if you have an account with us already, Press 1 if your call is about your membership; and after what feels like years of wandering in the desert: We can't address this query over the phone. Please visit our website for more options. His favourite was a parcel delivery company, which dumped all parcels in a landful. If you ring them to inquire about the whereabouts of your parcel, you have to read aloud an 18-digit alphanumeric code to a machine which has a perfect record of never once understanding the code.

It was so evil, he almost regretted it. Almost.

Fenton's hero-worship of Gyro in 'Astro 'B.O.Y.D.'

(In honor of the upcoming three-year anniversary of my favorite Ducktales episode 'Astro B.O.Y.D.', I'm going to be reposting some of my old posts about that episode from my defunct blog)

So, this was something interesting I always noticed in 'Astro B.O.Y.D.' Fenton's hero-worship of him and Gyro's complexity...

Starting with Fenton’s debut episode in season 1’s ‘Beware the B.U.D.D.Y. System’, it was strongly implied that he thought very highly of Gyro and considered it an honor to work under him, despite the way Gyro treated him and despite his inventions always going horribly wrong. He was probably one of the only ones who didn’t regard Gyro as a dangerous crackpot. Indeed, Fenton was very loyal, very eager to please, and always at his beck-and-call. And when he was talking to his mom in his next episode (‘Who is Gizmoduck?’), he referred to Gyro as "the best scientist in town." As a young, scrappy, and hungry (fun little reference for all you Lin fans XD) scientist himself, passionate and eager to make the world a better place with his own creations, he greatly looked up to Gyro and desperately yearned for his approval.

In ‘Astro B.O.Y.D.’, when Fenton learned from Gyro that he was once a “lowly intern”, he seemed to overlook the “lowly” part and take pure fascination in the fact that the great Gyro Gearloose started out as an intern just like him. I believe this was for three reasons: (1) he found it very inspiring that he shared the same humble beginnings as his brilliant mentor and idol, (2) he was thrilled to actually learn something about the private, closed-off man who likely never discussed any part of his actual life, and (3) it’s my headcanon that Fenton wanted to consider Gyro a friend after all that time, despite Gyro’s cold, disdainful treatment, so it was another reason he was so intrigued to learn they shared something like that in common. “You were an intern like me?” he asked with awe in his tone. To which Gyro muttered, “Nothing like you.” If Fenton was discouraged by this response, he didn’t show it.

It’s interesting to note that Fenton’s loyalty to Gyro was also shown by his willingness to stick up for him when others spoke ill of him or his inventions, namely in ‘Astro B.O.Y.D.’ when Inspector Tezuka bluntly told him an evil robot of Gyro’s once destroyed Tokyolk. Even though Fenton very well knew Gyro's track record with his inventions, Fenton adamantly started to protest that any robot of his would turn evil and go on a rampage. (And although I don’t think Fenton was actually shown defending Gyro at any other time in the show, I really like to think that he did).

But what's neat is that in Fenton's haste to loyally defend Gyro to Tezuka, he almost forget all about Gyro's machines always turning evil, and I think that's because he had much more confidence in Gyro than most people did; he always looked past his flaws- both personality-wise and his inventions- and mostly saw a genius with an unquenchable passion for science and a desire to make the world a better place.

When they reached the abandoned lab Gyro used to intern at, Gyro informed them this was Tokyolk’s leading research facility and where 2-BO was built. Fanboy Fenton is positively in his element, exclaiming “And where Gyro Gearloose was born!” as he rushes ahead to eagerly geek out over the artifacts that marked the start of his hero’s journey toward becoming the man he is today:

“Was this your lab coat?!”

“Was this your stool?!”

“Was this your trinocular inverted metallurgical telescope?!”

"Argh, dust in my eye! The dust- haha- of GENUIS!”

But instead of allowing his ego to be fed, Gyro snapped “All right, knock it off, intern!”

There's a deeper reason for Gyro’s irritated reaction if you really think about it. Ok, naturally, Gyro’s mind was focused strictly on the serious task-at-hand of shutting down Boyd once-and-for-all and finally putting his greatest nightmare to rest (Gyro lead the others to believe he intended to simply fix him with the specialized equipment located only at the lab where he was created). And of course it was very triggering for him to be in the same place he once endured so much trauma- from both the whole ‘2-BO' disaster (which cost him his reputation and changed him for the worst) and suffering Akita’s cruelty.

…And that’s where part of his disgust with Fenton’s hero-worship likely came from in that scene. Not only impatience with Fenton’s fooling around, but personal shame because: (1) Despite his seemingly huge ego (which I believe was always a cover for his true insecurities), he saw himself as the worthless failure Akita probably always gaslit him into believing he was, and (2) the above scene might be when he started to realize for the first time just how much he’d turned out like Akita, how similarly he treated his own intern (but I don’t think he fully realized this until much later in the episode when he learned Akita was responsible for reprogramming Boyd to go evil and furiously confronted him over it/faced his cruelty again).

"An intern with his own intern. Now I've seen everything."

"Face it, intern! You'll never invent anything worthwhile."

And it's Fenton's reverence of him that probably made Fenton even more like Gyro was in his own intern days (and part of what Gyro meant when he confessed at the end of the episode, "Yes, intern, I was once like you. Of course, I was a naive idiot back then. But if I had somebody actually listen to me, I might not have been so hopeless" a.k.a. might not have turned out so bitter, cold, and distant). Gyro probably once looked up to Akita as a brilliant scientist whose footsteps he hoped to follow in too, despite the way he treated him.

Deep down, he was likely disgusted with Fenton’s admiration of him because it made him disgusted with himself. He thought, Knock it off with the blind hero-worship, I don’t deserve it. Why do you even continue working under me? What do you see in me? Why do you want to be like me? Not only am I a terrible person, I’m an absolute failure as a scientist!

One of my favorite things Frank Angones said about Gyro is that Fenton always reminded him of his younger self, and that the inventor both liked and hated that. Gyro liked it because he appreciated and enjoyed seeing the best in Fenton- his innocence and optimism and desire to make the world a better place through science. But he hated it because not only did it likely bring back bad memories, but he probably thought Fenton was as sickeningly naïve and idealistic as he'd once been (and it led to Gyro getting hurt).

In fact (and maybe this is a stretch), it's my headcanon that Gyro always cared about Fenton deep-down and that- subconsciously- part of the reason he was always so tough on him, aside from the whole cycle of abuse and bitterness from a lifetime of failures, is because he saw so much potential in Fenton and didn't want the real world to crush him like it had done to Gyro... not consciously realizing that even though he may have been trying to toughen him up, he was only hurting him (because like I said, I don't think he realized until he confronted Akita and his past in 'Astro B.O.Y.D.' just how much like him he'd become).
