#especially in the ‘learning to love’ department. like just look at fitpac ‘baby steps’. look at spiderbit ‘kill for you but never you’.

Writing this at ass o’clock in the morning so excuse any incoherency but I can’t stop thinking about how important it is (for me personally) to view/headcanon qFit as entirely perfectly 100% human, and by extension, qCellbit as well.

Like I’m sure ppl have talked about it before but there’s just something so intriguing about having FitMC be Just Some Guy who was hardened by the Wasteland, sculpted by the atrocities he witnessed and committed, no claws or wings or horns or tails to help him. No extra arms for when he lost a limb, no enhanced hearing to make up for his damaged eardrums, no tough scales for when explosions melted his skin, no powerful hybrid instincts to guide him through his life. He is doing everything (hurting, helping, building, tearing, creating, destroying, strangling, soothing, hating, loving, killing, healing) with nothing but his one human hand, which he’s hardened with callouses until it became a set of claws in its own right. He’s been guided by a gut feeling for over ten years now, because it’s all he’s got.

Now. qCellbit. I love cat hybrid qCellbit soooo much, don’t get me wrong. When I think of qCellbit or when I’m writing him, he’s usually a cat hybrid. But just like with Fit, choosing to view qcellbit as 100% human is just as enriching. Small little kid, defenseless and soft and alone, thrown into a warzone. Had to eat his own kind and kill with his teeth and nails and bare hands to survive. Became the most feared thing within the prison walls. Had to learn late in his life how to be a “normal” person in society, something that takes so much time and effort and therapy that sometimes he doesn’t think he is a person. On his bad days, and even on some of his good ones, he views himself as less than human, a creature incapable of loving and being loved. He looks at his hands—tender, naked flesh and blunt nails, ten fingers and two palms—and still sees the claws of a monster.

#qsmp cellbit #qsmp fitmc #character analysis #dont mind me im just rambling #tbh there is a LOT of overlap between qcellbit and qfit #especially in the ‘learning to love’ department. like just look at fitpac ‘baby steps’. look at spiderbit ‘kill for you but never you’. #as always i might come back and edit this #for now i try to sleep gn #actually one last thing #I dont meant to imply that hybrids are ‘sub human’ with the qCellbit analysis #i just mean to say it’s vvv hard to do the ‘man who is nothing but a monster’ symbolism if he’s got like. physical claws and fangs. #like you can do it (depends on how you wanna read qcellbit) but choosing the human->monster route is the most intriguing option for me
