Ahaha thank you for the nice comments in tags <3 i love Remus but he seems bit like a spineless people pleaser and after dating somebody who would rather lie about their feelings than have people be mildly upset with them..... I chose violence 🗡

no but ur so right because!!! i’ve been sleeping on this for a while but let’s talk about remus’ personality traits and how they have the potential to make him a bad/absent partner, at best, and an abusive one, at worst. everyone wants to turn him into this image of perfection just bc he’s such an ‘uwu victim’ figure in fanon but that’s SO far from the truth omg

(i am…just gonna put this remus character analysis under a cut bc it got unnecessarily long and i wouldn’t want u to read it if u didn’t want to lol)

so, for one, he’s manipulative. he has no combinations in twisting the truth or dodging it entirely for his own benefit. like, the man could stand in front of his dead best friend’s orphaned son & not even allude to the fact that he knew his dad. he had no problem bringing james & lily up in the most twisted ways possible to guilt/emotionally influence harry. so remus in a relationship would have the capacity to either knowingly or unknowingly manipulate his partner. the definition of gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss except more sinister.

next, his spinelessness. either as a defensive measure to deal w anti-werewolf hostility or as an innate personality trait, remus has the habit of just—not standing up for things. he looks away when his friends act like assholes, even when he’s in a position of authority (which yes, u can argue that he’s afraid of losing them but atp they’ve literally risked life & magic & azkaban for him so either way, he comes off badly—either he doesn’t mind himself, or he doesn’t fully trust their friendship, or it’s just easier to look away). in a relationship, this can manifest as bottling everything inside u until it makes u bitter or u violently unload on the other person in an entirely disproportionate manner. the dynamic would also be a bit skewed. the people pleasing u mentioned is also such a big thing that people usually overlook. when ur constantly trying to make the other person happy and don’t want to rock the boat, that is a cocktail for miscommunication and breakdown of relationships. ur also constantly putting the emotional burden of constructively dealing w issues on ur partner instead of doing it urself.

connected to his cowardice is his habit of running away when things get tough. remus is conflict avoidant; he does not like to put himself in a position where he has to take a decisive stance, especially if it’s against what others around him believe in. he runs away when things get tough, and tbh, for me, this comes from a constant spiral of self hatred & self victimisation, both of which stem from his experience as a werewolf. in every difficult situation, he centres himself & his discomfort and instead of dealing with it and moving forward for a constructive solution, he decides that stepping back from it altogether is better. which, yeah, works well for him bc he can temporarily put a pin in it but it’s kinda terrible for everyone’s who’s left behind. so i also think that remus is a profoundly selfish character who doesn’t look beyond the end of his own nose. u can imagine how those traits might manifest themselves in a relationship.

and his people pleasing!! so this might be verging on fanon but his gratitude and/or devotion to dumbledore sets an…interesting tone. it’s also another example of how he cannot conceive himself in any other term except as a victimised werewolf. the marauders did a lot for him, arguably even more than dumbledore’s token representation formula, but he never felt indebted to them the way he did for D. dumbledore also kind of makes him feel needed? validates his feelings? and that just speaks to a very twisted sense of self for me. which, again, won’t bode well for his other interpersonal relations.

also, on a very hc note, i also feel like remus just…does not have any significant capacity to love. he takes and takes and takes but doesn’t give much in return. this doesn’t even have to be an actively malicious decision, tbh, just a very self-centred one. he doesn’t realise how much he’s taking bc he’s only thinking about his own circumstances.

all of these are also just why i can’t see r/s working out in any healthy manner. remus is exactly antithetical to everything sirius is/believes in, and not even in the fun ‘opposites attract’ way. but that’s another rant no one asked for lmao

#anti remus lupin #just to be safe lol #(i would not want to read sumn like this for j or s)#i read this harry/tonks postwar fic once #that had part r/s allusions #and it was basically about how terrible remus was as a dad & husband bc he kept running out to deal w his demons #not realising or caring ab who he’s leaving behind #and constantly kept making false promises and centering only his own grief #and harry steps up to take care of teddy and tonks #the romance is cool and all but it’s the characterisation of remus that really struck me. bc it was so new. even tho it’s basically #an extension of canon ykwim?#and i think we should talk about that more instead of turning him into a paragon of virtue and morality and parenthood #dude tumblr just ate my ENTIRE answer for a who monite and i was so ??? fully ready to give up i s2g lol #i also have so many thoughts of remus victimising himself #and consequently spitting on everything his friends and family did for him #bc those are destructive thinking patterns and no one except the person themself can take the first step #regardless of how much support they get #and remus just. never wanted to get out of it lbr #i am so sorry for this rant—u didn’t ask for it but ur fic LIT something in me #and i just. couldn’t stop once i started 😭😭#pen’s asks #pen’s notes

can someone please write an extensively long percy jackson zombie apocalypse au that's canon divergence, NOT a completely different universe AND not only features the main cast of characters but also has Nico, as the child of the god of the dead, be a central pillar in the story bc that would be cool ykwim

#idc how he would be central #whether he's like an OP survivor who can control the enemies #or hes constantly in the middle of a breakdown because hes unable to control his domain and save his friends #actually the latter sounds like delicious angst #yeah lets do this pleas #percy jackson #nico di angelo #pjo hoo toa #pjo

all im saying is that since the paraglider is in totk with an updated revali's logo, revali should also be in totk (preferably alive this time) ✋

idk if i would say it's truly an updated "revali's logo" ykwim because now it has four feathers on each wing instead of three :o but i'm very interested to see what the narrative reason for why link's paraglider was updated and if there will be an explanation as to why he has one in the first place.

imo as someone with so much revalink brainrot, regardless of whether or not link regained memories of his past life, he probably recognized that the paraglider had some significant sentimental value to him back then, and hopefully recognized that it must have belonged to revali previously as per revali's symbol on his main landing in rito village and flight range landing. maybe then he realized that he needed to maintain it to, at the very least, honor revali's memory, even if it seemed that revali didn't like him very much. after all, revali was a great warrior revered by his people, one who sacrificed his life in an attempt to save hyrule, and someone who must have mattered to link if the paraglider fatefully fell in his hands. he feels a great need to maintain it and be respectful of one of the remainders of revali's legacy. but give me back the botw paraglider design, it's charming and it's definitely revali!

now. this might be an unpopular opinion but it's one that i stand staunchly by because i talked about it a bit in this post. to be honest, i want to see the champions revived in totk. i'm sure plenty of you would disagree and play the card that the death of the champions was meant to teach link about loss, despair, the effects of war, sacrifice, and all those morals etc. but imo, the problem with teaching link those lessons is that it doesn't feel like much was lost in the first place. maybe this is a personal perception of botw on my end, but to me, there weren't enough of the champions' presence in botw to warrant this idea that it taught link about loss. if you were to go by the idea that link retained all his previous memories, then sure, but it doesn't work if you go the route where he doesn't and everything in the past is just flickers of memories he can't ever really recall. how can you tell a story about grief and loss and sacrifice if your main character, and by extension, your players who are connected to the story via that main character, can't feel a profound enough loss of those characters to understand the moral of the story? the presence of the champions in botw only made me want to see more of them because it felt like their time in the little sliver of spotlight they got was too short. and you could include age of calamity! but that's a non-canon prequel so it can't even really count 😭 i haven't played the champions' ballad dlc, so maybe there could be a change of mind if i did but why would you put a paywall if you want to teach a solid story about loss and sacrifice? what a shit way to tell a story 🥸

but i digress. yeah i do want revali and the rest of the champions back in totk, for all types of shenanigans and interactions. give them back to me nintendo ☝️😐

#revalink #loz #botw #totk #loz botw #loz totk #legend of zelda #amihan's revalinkverse #amihan's botwverse #amihan's totkverse #ask #cryiling #call me a braindead shipper ig but we were robbed of revalink interactions!#anyways i'm willing to hear out anyone who opposes but i most likely won't change my mind #i really do believe that there's a level of detachment between link and the champions #like there does not feel like a genuine enough relationship between him and the champions to say all that idk #botw link feels like Some Guy who got roped into saving the world #and because of that the champions just feel like ghosts of characters who deserved more #idk like it doesn't feel narratively fair to create characters like the champions and never come back to them #i can't grieve properly or feel any sort of loss for someone who i never really got to know #don't take this too serious either i am NAWT looking for a fight ✋😭

@bvshfulninja asked:

What plot points would change due to the inclusion of your character in canon? And what role would your character play in the story? Are they a major player, or a one scene wonder? (For her JoJo Verse!)

YOU HAVE ACTIVATED MY AUTISM TRAP CARD.

It just so happens i'm currently writing an extensive part 2 rewrite with 2 rp groups right now, one containing my pals aeth, den, dreamy, and kris, and the other containing max, rani, river, and sci!

hikari is a support character to joseph that simultaneously has her own shit to work through, ie. juggling with her humanity, training hard to become strong enough to defeat labrie, ect. Her presence and former vampirism is enough to actually divert straizo, on his way through new england to make his attempt on joseph's life, and have them connect and make a tentative deal while joseph instead goes to mexico of his own accord to retrieve speedwagon's ( alleged ) remains.

the rewrite exists to give characters fights and scenes and growth that the plot and pacing couldn't allow. There was an entire MONTH that was spent between caesar and joseph-- caesar is alive for seven episodes, i must remind you, and dies halfway through the part. Wtf went on there!! Also it gives suzie q and lisa lisa more time to be badass, and showcases some other awesome ocs ( khalia being dreamy's oc who i adore, and astrid being sci's equally amazing oc im chewing her ).

but yeah part 2 has always been my favorite part and has had crazy potential i wish it lived up to ykwim...

#ooc | and i won't be part of this in the end #jjba | this is a calling to the human race #bvshfulninja #can you tell im silly yet #also str*heim isnt sympathized and dies permanently. fuck that guy.#and santana joins the party

🥀🌸🌖🦴 for allocer or perhaps jazzy .. Choose whoever u prefer <3

🥀 darkest headcanon/theory

jazz: we know his brother is emotionally and verbally abusive (belittles him, steals his things, forces him to do stuff for him etc.), and that his brother likes alcohol a lot, so I wonder ...... how bad that abuse has ever gotten in his household .....

allocer: I don't really have concrete thoughts but I wonder what allocer would see if he got hit with orobas' trauma ability?? we barely know anything about his backstory so who the fuck knows really but I do have a headcanon that his family has an opposite personality from his, so rowdy and aggressive, like barbarian type people. so it could be something related to that. also in the harvest festival when allocer told jazzy he was angry at furfur he said "I'm also surprised, I showed jazz my weakness" and I just find it interesting that he worded it like that ykwim ...

🌸 my favorite headcanon

jazz: jazz being totally and completely flustered when he's crushing on someone. like he desperately tries to keep up his cool guy appearance but he blushes sooo easily when it comes to romance stuff. so cute

allocer: he is so autistic it's not even a headcanon to me anymore it's just an extension of canon. canon+

🌖 ship headcanons

jazz: it was so hard to pick only one but here's one that I really like

allocer:

🦴 what kind of extinct animal I’d give them

I have no fucking idea sorray

🧸& 🚩 For Oscar and John

🧸 - what position do they sleep in? do they snore or sleepwalk or have any other problems sleeping? what do their sheets look like?

okay so john is the big spoon and oscar is the little spoon, and when they are fighting oscar is a side sleeper (back to john) (basically his normal sleeping arrangement actually now that i think about it) and john is a back sleeper and he stares at the ceiling and Broods

oscar is the one who kicks and steals the blankets and gets caught in them and when he is troubled he does sometimes delay going to sleep either by taking a long time to get into bed (extending from 1.03) or by restlessness once In bed, but he usually sleeps through the night once he can get to sleep. when john is troubled he wakes up at the end of every rem cycle or just lies there awake like all night OR gets up in the middle of the night to read or write or whatever and usually manages to wake oscar up somehow because. he needs to untangle himself from oscar and/or the bedding oscar has somehow managed to bind his legs with which usually involves physically jostling him. also i said when he is troubled but i am also going to say that sometimes just in general john will either delay getting into bed or will get up in the middle of the night because he needs to get words out of his brain. s2 please do not somehow counter my headcanon that john got the adams writer gene and upbringing

ask my fiancee how much of this is art imitating life

and. we know what their sheets look like canonically. 😌 (john makes the bed.)

🚩 - what are their vices? what's at least one negative trait they have? what indulgences do they have that are less than positive? what would people mention about them if asked to name a flaw?

vices... neither of them see gay sex as a vice so jot that down... $$$ for oscar obviously. (john obviously is a rich guy who wouldn't know what to do without it but that is not the same as what oscar has going on.) (which stems from a whole host of things do not get me wrong.)

Substance Vices... they both smoke but like a normal 19th century guy amount... neither of them have a healthy relationship with alcohol but also in a normal 19th century guy amount... my blossoming headcanon is that john is genetically predisposed to having an alcohol problem. this doesn't mean he has one just that he. can have one. also it isn't a headcanon so much as a logical extension of historical reality.

& canon currently (just barely) predates the era in american history when cocaine was most popular but if oscar did coke i think he would keep doing coke. ykwim.

most defining cardinal sin for oscar is avarice (duh) and for john is pride. oscar dabbles in all of them but i think the pride is secondary whereas john's entire deal to me is that he is just too proud (in the: fixation on maintaining own dignity way) to do Anything. like it really gets in the way of. communication action etc. oscar overestimates himself and he is desperate to maintain and elevate his status but he doesn't appear to be inhibited by his own sense of dignity the way i think john might be. oscar is. willing to explain himself and john.... is not. oscar can handle getting teased and john Cannot.

negative traits well we do not have all day unfortunately so this cannot be exhaustive. i think just in general they both have a lot of things going for them that in the right circumstances (read: the point we see them in the show) can be Not Great At All.

indulgences. i just spoke about drugs. i will say the gay sex can impede other positive things like "talking about your problems" so that isn't always the best indulgence.

the flaws they would name about each other... Bad At Communication. unwilling to concede when wrong. unable to accept reality. the flaws random other people would name about them... i am thinking... agnes has many things she can say about oscar for example but they all boil down to "my adult child i worry about". i think agnes's main qualm with john adams is "showed no interest in marrying my niece". neither of these are what the question is asking sbdjdjfjejaj

these guys are crazy and i love them a lot. so much of their vibe is Takes One To Know One.

#thank u anon 💗#johnoscar tag
