Citra's middle name is Querida. I don't speak Spanish, but I'm pretty sure "querida" means "darling."

Greyson's middle name is TIMOTHY, which apparently means "God's honor," "honored by God," "honoring God," etc. which... lmfao I love him so much.

Rowan's is Daniel, which means "God is my judge."

So, we have: Citra "everyone's angel to protect at all costs" Terranova, Greyson "the Thunderhead's blatant favouritism" Tolliver, and Rowan "only God can judge me" Damisch.

Sounds about right

AOAS is actually so weird out of context. The main baddie is literally from mars, he killed an entire planet, was beheaded, and then started wearing one of the MC’s best friend’s body like the other 17% of the headless horseman for the ~drama~. One of the main driving plot points of the first book is Mars Man kidnapping Basically The President’s daughter and forcing the MC to babysit her against his will while he studies to get his license to kill. My man floods Basically NATO with mind-controlled sharks and yells “lol nope, u thought” while watching world leaders get eaten from a helicopter. The B-plot is New Jesus trying to navigate the intricacies of religion and developing a dysfunctional-ass found family that consists of his tour manager, a stubborn but devout theatre kid, a jean-cloaked ex-killer, and Robot God. He falls in love with a sexy sea captain who gets possessed by Robot God bc it’s in love. There’s deep talks about nature and morality of humanity. The two MC’s bang while dying of hypothermia while sinking to the bottom of the ocean. This isn’t even half of it.

fandomtober day THIRTEEEEEN (yes i missed 5 days in a row, exams are fun) today is AOAS!!! I really had no idea what to do for this one because theres so many moments in AOAS i'd love to draw, but I settled on doing greyson because @spl-central compiled a REALLY great post with all of greysons character descriptors, and I owe it to spl to finally draw him! I will do a proper greyson ref sheet eventually, but I have so many projects I'm doing simultaneously that it'll probably be awhile until i get to it :,)

ANYWAYS READ SCYTHE RN ITS SO GOOD

Thunderhead: You’re my favorite human.

Greyson: If I’m you’re favorite, why do you talk to everyone else?

Thunderhead: I have to.

Greyson: No, you don’t.

Please read this whole post, there’s no meme or catch to this, I’m not staying quiet on this.

this is the first post I’m making about Neal Shusterman’s recent actions - the second is about AI art usage, but this is so, so much more important.

Neal being complicit in the genocide that is occurring currently in Palestine and Gaza. Neal seems to have just gotten back from a book tour promoting a graphic novel he wrote, called Courage to Dream, which is about the Holocaust. He sent an email to everyone subscribed to his online newsletter.

Neal took this as an opportunity to state that he saw how “both sides” - both Israel and Palestinians - were doing things he did not condone, and that he would be remaining neutral.

Obviously Neal isn’t wrong in some of his wording, but what he’s fundamentally trying to say here is wrong and harmful. It doesn’t take someone who has lived through genocide to recognize that a genocide is happening. Genocide is a complex topic, but not in a “both sides should be shown kindness” way. It is complex in the fact that this has been going on for years, that history is repeating itself, and that people in positions of power are so easily falling for Zionist and colonialist propaganda because of their own bigotry and bias against those living in Palestine. How did you just go on tour promoting a book about the stories of people who were being targeted and killed in a genocide, and your first statement upon returning from that tour is to email all the subscribers of your newsletter that you’re “not qualified” to talk about genocide, and that you’re refusing to support the people being eradicated? Why did you write a book about genocide in the first place if you didn’t think you were qualified to talk about it? How do you write a whole graphic novel detailing the stories of people in what is the most known genocide in modern history and not see that Israel is trying to wipe Palestinians off the map?

Being opposed to genocide isn’t a simplistic opinion. It’s fucking common sense.

Arc of a Scythe Incorrect quotes pt 3 Aka Me Seeing How Many Tags I Can Slap Onto a Single Post pt 3

Faraday: I have a new hoodie.

Curie: Wrong. WE have a new hoodie.

Citra: Why are your tongues purple?

Faraday: We had slushies. I had a blue one.

Curie: I had a red one.

Citra: Oh.

Citra: OH.

Rowan: You drank each other's slushies?

Citra: Ya'll always talk about E-boy this and E-girl that, but no one wants to talk about the E-conomy. Marican capitalism is a fundamentally flawed system-

Constantine: BEHOLD! The field in which I grow my f*cks! Lay thine eyes upon it and thou shalt see that it BARREN!

Mandela: If you got arrested, what would be the charges?

Citra: Theft.

Curie: Disturbing the peace.

Faraday: Aggravated assut.

Morrison: Arson

Rowan. All the above. In that order, probably.

Goddard: You know what? You're in timeout! GET ON TOP OF THE FRIDGE! GET UP THERE!!!

Rowan: *Climbing on top of the refrigerator* THIS HOUSE IS A F*CKING NIGHTMARE!!!!!

Greyson: *Alone in his room and talking to the Thunderhead* You are my da-ad! YOU'RE MY DAD! Boogy woogy-woogy!

Volta: Do not come over to my room. If the room is on fire, you may knock once, if I don't answer, assume I set the fire and I want to burn to death.

Greyson: No, this is not a mess. You know what I consider a mess?

Thunderhead: Your life?

Greyson: I- well, yes, but-

Scythe ocs Incorrect quotes!

Newton: Did you get the eggs like I asked?

Bly: Even better!

Newton: What the f*ck did you-

Bly: *Holds up chicken* Her name is Fluffy.

Bly: Honk.

Newton: WHAT?

Bly: HONK!

Newton: WHAT THE F*CK DOES HONK MEAN THIS TIME, YOU WHIMSICAL PIECE OF SH*T!!?

Scythe Characters As Weird Shit My Friends And I Say Because I Can

Curie, standing on a stepladder: You don't have to be straight, the clock has to be straight.

Citra: Well that's rude. The clock can be whatever it wants to be.

Rowan: Let the clock love who it wants to love!

Rand: I was just giving a detailed explanation of how you suck it.

Volta: I'm gonna crash this fucking car.

Chomsky: Sometimes you just gotta do it and see what happens.

Volta: You knew what would happen! It blew up!

Mentor! Faraday: She's attacking me!

Apprentice! Curie: I'm hugging you.

Rowan: Do-nut order donuts.

Citra: I hate you.

Goddard: My god, Xenocrates! There's a fuck you!

Tyger: Wow, my head really just flew across the room.

Rand: I'm taking your silence as a sign I should kill the child.

Rowan, to Citra: Did you die? Guess I'll die too.

Greyson, gesturing proudly at Jeri: Nonbinary noodle!

Faraday, in the middle of a thought: -ledge.

Munira: Ledge?

Faraday, nodding: Ledge.

New headcanon that the Thunderhead chose Greyson’s middle name (Timothy, meaning “honoured by God”) because his parents couldn’t be bothered, and that was its way of promising to always protect and love and support him because it knew he wouldn’t have anybody else

#idk I think this is kinda canon compliant because his parents did just literally name him after the weather one day #arc of a scythe #aoas #the thunderhead #greyson tolliver

My thought on Thunderhead which fucked me up, and I would like a lawyer to sue

There will be a ton of spoilers so don't read if you wanna avoid them!

the world building was again just incredible

just scratches something in my brain

My edgey boi Rowan be murdering scythes and I'm so proud

Just straight up abandoned his dad (Faraday) to do it

He is also still a massive simp and we love him for it

Citra really risking everything just to see him for 5 mins though please, also a massive fucking simp

Faraday really showed up and instantly was not like "im not mad just dissapointed" over Rowan MURDERING PEOPLE. I love them please

The thunderhead sections were fucking great and it was nice to see the thoughts of the AI that has to put up with our shit

Greyson is baby

Tyger is DUMB bitch (affectionate)

Curie is Citra's Mum and we love that

the thunderhead really did say fuck you greyson concerning what happened

Also Greyson sweetie we shouldn't be falling for people who have no issuing killing people regardless of how alluring and fascinating they are

CITRA WAS SO FUCKING MAD THAT GREYSON WASNT ROWAN

I FUCKING CACKLED LIKE GIRL THE FUCK

the increased level of the tonists in the book was also really fasicinating and stuff, not by much but im excited to see more in the 3rd book as well

Rand falling in love with TYGER OF ALL PEOPLE(?) was not on my bingo card for this series but I'll take it

Then proceeds to murder him anyway. You DUMB FUCK

Goddard as always can suck my non existent dick and choke on it

the way he came back was horrifying

i literally felt sick

it was so cool

grandslayers were fucking epic

and gone too soon

Citra and Rowan are obsessed with each other

and you can pry that point from my cold dead fucking hands

THE THUNDERHEAD SCREAMING IN ITS OWN WAY AFTER WHAT HAPPENED WAS NOT FINE MY GOOD SIR FUCK YOU

also Thunderhead really just said "FUCK HUMANITY apart from Greyson as he is my son and I love him more"

maries sacrificing herself and saving them both despite her thoughts of rowan was pain

Faraday not knowing marie is dead

fuck

Rowan saying citra looked like a godess as THEY WERE ABOUT TO DIE

LIKE

SIR THERE IS A TIME AND PLACE AND IT IS NOT THE NOW

and then just abandoning us with my children at the BOTTOM OF THE FUCKING OCEAN

MARIE DEAD

GRANDSALYERS DEAD

FARADAY NOT KNOWING SHIT CAUSE HES OFF TRYING TO SAVE THE WORLD

fuck you neal my not so good sir

In conclusion, a cliffhanger has not fucked me up this hard since Mark of Athena (fuck you uncle Rick), and I would like to simultaneously sue and pick this man's brain to see where he can find the fucking audacity to do this to us

also theres definetley more but ive already read the toll and im trying not to mix events in my brain so yeah

If you think about it, looking at Greyson's character arc as an average person with no single clue about the entire book series feels like you're reading a Florida Man news headline. Like what do you mean a fake Jesus Christ just stabbed a legal serial killer in the eye??? AND WITH A FUCKING FORK!?!?

also Neal shusterman or someone on his social media team is doing shady shit involving AI art

Separating this from the post about Neal taking a “neutral” (complicit) stance on genocide, since art thievery and falsely crediting an artist is much, much less harmful than encouraging people to stay silent about the genocide in Palestine.

On December 7th, 2023, Neal Shusterman made this post to his various social media accounts - I took the screenshot from his Twitter.

Neal does fanart promotion all the time, so this was nothing out of the ordinary for him, except that even though I’ve only read half of Gleanings, I could immediately tell that this wasn’t a character from Gleanings, with the obvious clue being that Rowan is the only character in the series to have ever worn a black robe, and this clearly isn’t supposed to be him.

You’ll notice I blurred the artist’s name here - I did that intentionally so they don’t face harassment from people who didn’t read my post closely enough, but if you want to support her work you can easily find this post on Neal’s socials and get her username (while it’s linked on all of his social medias, the username corresponds to an Instagram account).

To me, this post screamed AI generated artwork, and the more I looked into it, the worse it seemed to get. The cover of the copy of Gleanings in that “photo” is in German - the artist Neal credited does not seem to speak any German whatsoever. In that case, why would they pick a copy of Gleanings in a language they don’t speak to overlay this art? The artist Neal credited never posted this piece of artwork, although they had made a different piece of fanart for the series that was in a completely different style to this one. The style of the piece of AOAS fanart the artist posted THEMSELVES had a completely different art style from the art Neal credited them with.

I ended up reaching out to the artist and asked if they had actually drawn this art piece, or if they knew who did. They responded today.

(My message before I sent the screenshot to them was apologizing for confusing wording in my original messages, and the fact Instagram’s crappy messaging system never sent them the art piece I was asking about in the first place. This confused the artist, which is partially my fault since I used a translator app to translate my message into their native language, which I’m sure screwed up grammar somewhere. I wanted to make sure they knew I wasn’t accusing THEM of using AI, but rather suspecting someone was using AI and saying they drew the AI generated art.)

So, Neal, or someone who manages his social media, put this artist in a damn hard spot and told everyone that the artist made something that was made by AI. And again, absolutely no hate or disrespect to the artist, they didn’t know this was happening and they were very kind and understanding. If you do seek out their account, give them a follow!
