Obligatory things I need in beyond the spider verse or ELSE:

Miles and 42 Miles sibling banter

42 Miles roasting the fuck out of Miguel “How you gonna let Dark Garfield fold you? Couldn’t be me.”

MORE HOBIE

MILES AND THE SINISTER SIX TEAM UP

“If you can’t have a loyal friend, find a good enemy.”

FELICIA MOTHERFUCKING HARDY

Felicia recognizing Peter B under the Spidey mask immediately. “I know that’s you, Pete.”

“Play dumb.” “… Who’s Peter?” “Not THAT dumb.”

Extremely important to me that Felicia calls Peter B and every Peter variant “peanut”

Her revealing that actually, he broke up with HER, and no one believes it. Patrick (Web-Slinger) is particularly doubtful until Peter B confirms it.

“I did break up with her! Why’s that so surprising?”

Noir: I want to be honest, but I also want to be nice

Patrick: Usually when I make a mistake, it’s not intentional

Cliche as fuck, but, Peter variants chasing Felicia (she’s creating a diversion) and they end up in an elevator. Felicia being stuck between Peter variants like, “me-ow.”

PEOPLE BEING DOWN BAD FOR FELICIA THATS ALL

42 Miles calling Felicia (yes this is rapidly becoming a Felicia post I’m aware) “auntie Fel”

Pav and Miles friendship <3 Miles saying he wishes he could be as effortlessly great as Pav, and Pav refuting that by saying “are you kidding me? I’d give everything to be… Real. Like you. Miles, you’re great because you work to be. Even when you think you’re not.”

GWEN APOLOGIZING AND BEING A LITTLE JEALOUS OF MILES’ NEW SQUAD

Miguel finally apologizing to Miles and owning up to his mistakes. Also finally meeting Rio and getting the shit beat out of him with a shoe

GREEN GOBLIN BEING THE FINAL VILLAIN

Peter seeing others being down bad for Felicia and being confronted with the fact that he still has feelings for her

He’s also super jealous but insists that’s not the case. “Me? Jealous? Who’s jealous haha not me” (eye twitching)

The spider gang hanging out at the underground spot Miles goes to for graffiti and posing for a picture, which Miles submits to an art contest/scholarship and wins

The prompt was “Expectations Met”

Anyone else play spiderman 2 and kind of stare in slack-jawed awe over how Martin li is treated like a criminal that must atone for his crimes and seek redemption from miles to earn his trust and respect but Norman is just uh. Still the mayor? And Pete still hangs out with him and he still lives in absolute luxury with immense power and influence and the only unkind words spoken about him are written in graffiti and mentioned in passing from the mouths of radio hosts. Like that guy is just as responsible in May's and Jefferson's deaths as Li and they just. Don't really mention it. Meanwhile Pete has to hold miles back from killing li on sight. And norman is EXCLUSIVELY shown in a positive light through the story, even though he used an alien symbiote to do human experimentation on his son. Even though he continues to develop weapons technology that is killing people regularly. But Li is only worthy of redemption if he's reaaaaally sorry and helps save the world

benina luca au yes

Benina as in Luca x Alberto or as in Luca x Guilia? ...What, you can't blame me, either are viable options! (on the other hand, thank you for asking this, someone asked for this AU AGES ago and I totally forgot even after I saw the movie XP)

Honestly, if we want a Luca x Alberto angle, then Sonny and Pete should absolutely take those spots, cause Nina is totally Guilia. Although I'd kinda want Benny in there too because of how Guilia's dad basically adopts Alberto and I totally want that for Benny AND Pete. Plus, then we could still have the Benina in there; we just double-cast Alberto! Maybe Pete and Benny were both abandoned and Benny took him under his wing as a brother, but Pete and Sonny go to the town first before Benny follows and meets Nina when he finally tracks Sonny and Pete down.

Plus, Usnavi and Vanessa going onto land to find Sonny and just becoming absolute menaces to society, throwing all these kids in the water and getting them wet, it's too perfect XD

Darryl and neurodivergency

Darryl is the younger brother of Molly Mcgee, who is often characterized as mischievous and a troublemaker. Some episodes have subplots that involve him making deals with other people or getting into some shenanigans, like ¨A Period Piece¨ or ¨I Wanna Dance With Some-Ollie¨. However, it is clear that not all his behaviour is considered totally intentional, as he wants to be good but he struggles understanding how. This struggle with understanding social norms is heavily implied to come from his own neurodivergency

In this post i'm going to discuss how Darryl is written as a neurodivergent character mainly using the episode 2-B from Season 2 ¨Double, Double, Darryl & Trouble¨ and how it explores the relationship he has with his family and how he views himself.

First, what is neurodivergency?

From dictionary.cambridge.org defines neurodivergency as: ¨having or related to a type of brain that is often considered as different from what is usual¨.

So, from my perspective, this means people who have their brains wired in way that is considered ¨different¨ from the norm. This doesn't mean that there is something wrong with the person, it just means that they may operate or think in a unique way or they have a different way of learning new things. A person who is neurodivergent can carry out their daily lives just like a person who isn't neurodivergent does.

Now, why do i describe Darryl as neurodivergent?

Well, it has been mentioned by some people in the crew how Darryl's brain is wired in a different way from the rest of the Mcgee family. Bob Roth, one of the creators of the show, described Darryl on his twitter as ¨Darryl isn't evil or sadistic. He wants to do good. He thinks he's doing good. But his ways of getting their are really are just... off.¨

Sam King, the person who directed the episode ¨Double, Double, Darryl & Trouble¨ talked about how the plot of the episode is based on how she and her sister had neurodivergences that affected how both of them did at school. She talked about how Darryl struggles with what is expected of him or how he shouldn't change completely who he is to be ¨good¨.

Having this in mind, it is clear that Darryl written as a neurodivergent was intentional from the crew and the writers' part. This means that Darryl is intended to be read as this and it is an aspect that should be considered when it comes to analysing his character.

How does the episode ¨Double, Double, Darryl & Trouble¨ tackles this theme?

The episode starts with Darryl getting caught for making a giant graffiti mocking the school principal Connor. Connor talks to Sharon and Pete about this, both who are disappointed at Darryl's behaviour. As a punishment, Darryl has to clean up the wall and miss the recess.

However, once Pete and Sharon get on their car, they start laughing of their son's pranks. They praise his artist talent and believe that his humor is hilarious. This goes to show that while they both try to be firm with Darryl, they still like him for who he is and enjoy his pranks even though it puts him on trouble with school.

Back to Darryl, he gets the idea of becoming a wraith and letting his shell (body) to clean up the graffiti on the wall while he has fun flying around as a ghost. He later persuades Molly into letting him be a wraith for the rest of the day while his shell body goes to class, with the argument of how he (his shell) is behaving good like his family and the principal want him to be.

During these scenes you can see Darryl getting frustrated with the idea of how almost everyone around him wants him to be a well behaved and model student. He doesn't fully understand how to be that and why his behaviour is wrong because his own morality works differently from other kids. When he tries to be good he often can get things wrong and do things that weren't expected of him. Darryl has some struggle understanding social norms and being able to differentiate between what is good and bad.

I think this is a feeling plenty of neurodivergent people can relate to. The idea of not getting what things were wrong and how growing up adults around us wouldn't explain why those things wrong. Or saying things that were inappropriate without meaning to because we thought we were just being honest. And we could get angry with people around us for not explaining things well or us just not understading the situation. At least it is something i can personally relate in my experience as teenager.

Another thing that is worth of analyzing is the role the Scratch plays in this episode. Scratch always had this sort of uncle relationship with Darryl and you can see that they were already getting along in early episodes from Season 1 such as ¨Getting the (Band)Shell Back Together¨ and ¨No Good Deed¨. Both have similar personalities that involve getting in trouble and being mischevious. Because of this, Darryl feels like he can be more himself around Scratch than he is with the rest of the Mcgees. Scratch seems to accept him more for who he is or put less pressure in him to be ¨good¨. It's not surprising to see why they are usually seen hanging out together. However, Scratch can be a bad influence to Darryl and encourage bad behaviour and habits from him. So, this is the downside of them hanging out together since while Darryl feels like he can be himself around Scratch, the blue ghost isn't the best role model for him.

And in ¨Double, Double, Darryl & Trouble¨ Scratch is the one that encourages the most for Darryl to stay as a wraith. In the song sequence Darryl and Scratch play all kind of pranks to the teachers and students in school while Darryl's shell behaves like a model student, which becomes important for Darryl's conflict later in the episode.

When Molly, Scratch and Darryl go back home, Molly notices that Darryl is still a wraith and orders him to return to his human body. Darryl refuses to go back to normal since he says that ¨he feels more alive as a ghost¨. He doesn't have those social pressures he gets all the time and he is hanging out with someone who he feels like he can be himself freely.

In that moment Sharon and Pete call Darryl about how the school principal called them. Darryl's shell goes to Pete and Sharon while Darryl listens to the conversation. It turns out that the principal called because ¨Darryl¨ has been behaving well all day. Both Pete and Sharon tell ¨Darryl¨ how proud they are of him, making Darryl feel insecure about his relationship with his family.

He later talks to Scratch about he feels like his family likes more his shell than they like the real him. Scratch ties to convince Darryl that this isn't the case, only for them to hear Molly complementing the shell's behaviour. In response Darryl gets really angry and decides to stay ghost ¨foverer¨ if their family ¨loves the shell more than they love him¨.

Before Darryl decides to run away from home and stay as a ghost, he listens to Pete and Sharon being worried about him. They talk about how ¨Darryl lost his spark¨ and think they did something wrong as parents. Darryl then realizes that his parents like him for who he is and that he misunderstood the whole situation.

I think this conflict that Darryl has about feeling misunderstood and unwanted by his family it is something a lot of neurodivergent people experienced growing up. About not feeling good enough for your family and that you are letting them down. That there is something wrong with oneself and that your family secretly hates you for that. This is something that Darryl probably has felt multiple times before this episode. He feels different from the rest of his family. He believes that they don't accept him for who he is and mainly see him as a troublemaker. It isn't suprising to see why he lashed out when he saw his shell being praised by his parents and Molly, despite that wasn't the real him.

After some shenanigans involving Darryl rescuing his body from a garbage truck and almost falling into an incinerator, Darryl goes back to his human body and returns to his home. He has a conversation with Pete and Sharon about how he can't be this perfectly well behaved son, how sometimes he is going to get into trouble and they have to accept that. Both of them tell Darryl that they love him as he is, even with the problems he usually gets into.

In the end Darryl understands that his family accept him as who he is and they only want what the best for him. They want him to grow into a good person and not fall into the wrong path. Although he may struggle with understanding certain social norms, that doesn't mean that he should completely change who he is as a person.

In conclusion, the point of the episode is that if someone is neurodivergent or has way of behaving that is different from what it is expected, that person shouldn't have to become another person and leave behind who they are to be accepted. They can still be themselves while looking for a way to become better people. Because a person shouldn't have to completely change their personality to please others.

Update on the Hatchetfield One-shot I ran!

The game started off with a talent show. Richie did magic tricks and roped Pete into helping. They had a few mishaps but overall it went well. Grace recited digits of pi and then started a sermon and had to be escorted off stage. Stacy did cheer with the rest of the cheerleaders. Steph played piano and actually won the talent show. Her reward was a pair of purple glasses and a coupon to Pasquali’s.

The glasses let Steph see Sigglette, who was routing through Pete’s bag and stole his chocolate bar. Pete’s player actually brought a chocolate bar so that got passed around the whole session depending on which character had it. Richie, Ruth and Ted all encouraged Pete to talk to Steph. He eventually got invited to go to Pasqualli’s with her. Grace’s parents were disturbed by the swearing in other student’s songs and went to go complain to the Principal. Steph went to talk to Snigglette, who was invisible to anyone who hadn't touched the glasses. This is something I would change if I ran it again, since it took longer than I expected for the glasses to get passed around. I would just let the party be able to see her from the beginning. Steph got the chocolate bar back, and told Snigglette she should talk to the cops if she was in trouble. Snigglette followed Steph to Pasqualli’s. Richie and Ruth decided to follow Pete, but didn’t actually have a ride so Pete had to drive them to the restaurant so they could continue stalking him.

I made a word search with eye-themed words in it. Steph’s player had the most fun with that. Stacy put the glasses on and was able to see Snigglette. She fed her breadsticks. Pete also got the glasses and after Snigglette mentioned Blinky takes away food as punishment, called the police. Grace, seeing people talk to thin air, though they were high and threw holy water at Steph. This caused a scene so basically everyone in the restaurant was watching them and Grace got kicked out. She met Max, who tried to flirt unsuccessfully. When Max entered Pasqualli’s, Richie hid under the table. Max bullied Pete, who eventually left the restaurant. Richie and Ruth snuck out with him as well. Officer Bailey finally showed up, and upon seeing no purple child in distress, left, because the police in Hatchetfield are not good at their job.

Everyone went home. Stacy asked Richie to tutor her and he took three hours to respond to her email. Ruth and Pete were coaching him in what to write but had opposite advice. Stacy was asleep by then but Richie got a simple “yes” in response. In the morning, both assumed it was a glitch in the system.

At school the next day, rumors have spread about each character. During calculus, they receive a creepy math problem with their names in it. At some point they got a different paper after realizing someone was off. They tossed the creepy paper in the trash, but Snigglette picked it up. Pete gave Richie, who then gave Grace, the glasses so that everyone could see Snigglette. Stacy started feeding Snigglette candy. Richie started theorizing and trying to figure out what was going on. Purple writing started to appear on his notebook, introducing itself as Blinky.

Stacy and Brenda went to the bathroom during passing period and Steph could see graffitied rumors on the wall that Brenda couldn't. Steph saw a purple figure in the mirror, but no one was there when she turned around. During lunch, Max, now with purple tinted eyes, leapt up on a table and started shouting rumors about people. Richie and Pete ran to the library to escape him. Max was eventually sent to the counselor's office.

In the library, Richie and Pete tried to research Blinky. They found a few newspapers from 1824, but nothing much. They decided to try the public library instead. Butas everyone left school, Max stood in front of Stacy’s car, continuing to spill secrets. Richie hid from him under the car, and rolled from car to car to escape. Stacy and Steph, not used to being on the receiving end of Max’s bullying, were frightened. Grace ignored Max’s continuous flirting attempts and went to babysit Tim. Pete had a vision of hitting Max over the head with a nearby metal pipe and Stacy had a similar vision of hitting him with her car. Pete threw the pipe, not trying to hit Max, just to get his attention, which worked. Pete managed to lose him in the school, ending up in the counselor's office with volunteer counselor Dan Reynolds. He pretended he just needed to grab a college pamphlet and then left. I don’t think I did a great job roleplaying Max. It’s not a character trope I’m used to playing, so I don’t think he came off as threatening enough, which messed with some things later down the line.

Pete and Richie went to the public library to do more research. Steph and Stacy went there to try and study. Grace ended up there because Tim needed to check out a book. Richie found more newspapers about Willabella. He also found that there was a Black Book that had been checked out 15 years ago, but the name of the person who took it was corrupted. They used Snigglette’s ability to reveal it. It shifted between two names, Holloway and Holliday. Googling Holloway got one article about Miss Retro’s shutting down and Holliday had nothing, although Grace recognized it as the name of the last guidance counselor.

Miss Tessburger tracked down Steph and told her that a rumor was spreading that Steph was pregnant. Tessburger tried to take her phone, but was unsuccessful. My dice really betrayed me today. I rolled like 5 ones. Miss Tessburger left, and soon after all the players received a call from a mysterious person. Surprise, surprise, it’s Blinky! He threatened to spill more of their secrets but couldn’t get much in before Snigglette shut down all the phones again. That ability turned out to be the only one they used the whole session.

The party got off track for a bit here, because Blinky was supposed to give them more directions but they shut him down really quick. Richie, Pete and Steoh decided to go to Miss Retro’s. Stacy and Grace went home. Their parent’s have all heard a terrible rumor about their kids. Stacy heard that one of the cheer squad said Stacy was blackmailing her. She tried to vent to Brenda about it, but she took the other girl’s side. Grace’s parents had heard she slept with Max and were terrified she was going to go to Hell.

At Miss Retro’s, Steph managed to pick the lock, only to immediately trigger a trap and get thrown several feet with minor injuries. Inside, they found the Black Book and the Blade of Truth. All the players loved the props, which made me very happy. They characters were very cautious with the Book, rather unwilling to complete the ritual given that Max didn’t feel like enough of a threat to justify it. Richie did have an interesting idea that since the spell is designed to bring retribution on someone who has wronged them, they could ask for the target to be Blinky himself. They didn’t end up going this route, but I really liked it and would have allowed it.

They went back home. Richie’s rumor was that he got a virus from downloading anime that locked his parent’s out of their bank accounts. Pete’s was that he made drugs in the chemistry lab. Steph decided not to go home, and slept at Stacy’s instead.

The next day, they shared all the information they had gathered. Grace asked about Miss Holliday, since she had talked with her before. Grace found a letter of administrative leave, addressed to Holliday. The party used Snigglette’s ability to see all her emails, finding ones addressed to Duke, and one incoming email from a WCross that just said “found ya.”

The thing is I specifically made Holloway absent, because she’s my favorite character and I knew if I put her in I would get distracted and have her solve all the problems. The party was supposed to go to the counselor’s office and need to distract Dan, but they never did that so I gave them the Book earlier, at Miss Retro’s.

They talked to Duke, because Grace also had a connection to him, since he was trying to get her to see what her church was really like. At this point, I was trying to move things along so they didn’t spend too long with Duke. He mentioned that Miss Holliday had written him a goodbye letter and then vanished a few ago. Most of the rest of the party’s questions triggered the memory curse, so he couldn’t give them much more. But Snigglette broke into his phone and they got the letter and address of Miss Holliday.

Back at Miss Retro’s, they found Holliday’s dead body stabbed by the Black Blade, because they were going in a weird direction and I was trying to get them back on track and had already committed to not having her be in this. Case in point, Richie asked about trying to revive her with the Black Book and I had to stop myself from going on a tangent about all my headcanons about the immortality deal. But then Richie had the idea to use the Blade of Truth, since it’s the opposite of the Black Blade. Creative idea, so I rolled with it and let him ask one question of the knife, which it would answer. He asked if there was a way other than the ritual, to stop Blinky. The answer was to bore Blinky so much he gave up. This was a potential solution I had in mind, but it was the one I least expected them to go for. I really wanted them to do the ritual but Max hadn’t been established as enough of a threat to risk summoning a Lord in Black.

But they were back on track and decided to be very boring. A bit anticlimactic, but a rare happy ending for a Hatchetfield story. Richie didn’t watch any anime and just read history books instead. Grace stopped trying to cancel Prom, and didn’t evangelize to anyone. Pete stopped going on Instagram and posting fun science facts. Steph got tutored by Pete and had to only focus on math and avoid any flirting. Stacy shut herself in and watched crime dramas instead of hanging out with friends.

At the end of the week, they all got another call from Blinky, which they ignored. He then appeared in his human form and tried to chase them down. They pretended he didn’t exist and just talked over him, which infuriated Blinky until he finally just left. They beat a Lord in Black by just ignoring him. I love it.

The players were interested in a session two, so I might run an Abstinence Camp themed one with the same characters. Overall, I had a lot of fun. It has been a year-long endeavor convincing enough of my friends to watch Starkid to run this. I liked the sandbox feel, where the whole town is open for exploration. Having phones isn’t in the Kids on Bikes ruleset, but I really liked how it let people communicate even when the party was split. Watching people puzzle out the lore was fun, that’s something I’d want to be more prepared for next time, having satisfying answers rather than just killing off Holloway. This was my first time running Kids on Bikes, so next time I want to ask for more rolls and encourage people to spend their Adversity Tokens. Richie had Unassuming, which he used a lot. Grace and Pete both used Intuitive, but besides that, not many Tokens got used. They never got low on Psychic Energy Token either and only used one ability. I think it would help if I played less of the Powered Character. I played Snigglette when introducing her and when they had lore questions, which was pretty often. All of us are most familiar with D&D, so no one was used to co-controlling a character. Next time, I would just hand out the cards and let people go from there, even if it ends up straying pretty far from what I had in mind for the character.
