notable medical / health - physical
he needs this like heid needs this; i wanted to make a little write up of jagi's physical health and things that may be referenced in threads etc.
head scar / trauma / brain damage -
the most obvious is his head scar / face scar. for anybody who doesn't know; after a fight with his brother, his brother used a technique to essentially swell jagi's brain and kill him. this WOULD have killed him but jag, being the stubborn bastard he is - decided to nail metal into his head to stop the swelling / injury. on the right side of head, he has this metal scar with wires that pump blood and keep him alive.
he also suffered some brain damage from this injury.
he is ALWAYS in pain with this injury. it's pure agony; not much distracts him from it. but he will welcome any kind of relief. if your muse wants to control jag in some way, perhaps they can offer him pain relief - he might just be there friend :eyes:
here is an image of what this looks like; the depiction varies dependent on which manga, anime, game etc you see so i'm going to use this reference as it's most clear / my favourite.
regarding jagi's brain damage - i like to think that he has odd mannerisms spotted when with him for a long time; he blinks unequally, his pupils are always tiny, he twitches and can sometimes appear as if under the influence of drugs ( he isn't ).
he also sees a demonic figure from time to time ( the one his mask is inspired by, as seen in the gaiden manga ) and it also speaks to him. this is purely as a result of his brain damage. when alone, he will sometimes talk to himself or mumble - his mumbles border on an almost indecipherable rambling, but to jag, he can see / hear something that nobody else can. this is purely his head playing tricks on him.
old leg injury -
his leg injury is inspired by ken's rage, as i noticed he has a bandage around his right leg - i like to think that he once badly broke his leg whilst in the dojo as a teen and the injury never quite settled. even with toki's healing and ryuken's orders to 'take it easy', jagi just couldn't and insisted on using it, thus damaging it further.
ever since, it's given him slight discomfort / pain but nothing unbearable. his attention when it comes to pain is entirely distracted by the throbbing pain in his skull, so he isn't too bothered by his old leg wound. it is something that can be sensitive, mind you, and is another reason for him using his motorbike to get around everywhere.
scars on torso / self-harm -
the scars on his torso are supposed to imitate kenshiro's as to impersonate him - they are real. jag gave them to himself; he stabbed himself multiple times with a knife, digging the circular scars into his torso. he did this in a fit of madness shortly after receiving his head injury.
on this note, jag is no stranger to self harm. he has stabbed himself with a pipe through the hip before during a suicide attempt and when younger, would regularly cut into his thighs.
if asked of these wounds - he'll play them off as being wounds caused while training / fighting in battle. only toki knows their true origin.

Actually, thinking about that post about how it’s easier to hate nazis then to love Jews etc., and it did make me think about a similar (in terms of sentiment, I don’t want to imply that I’m saying these things are the exact same and can just be swapped in terms of how they function) situation I see a lot with how so many cis people who are trying to be good allies focus like 90 or so percent of their time on hating terfs and being like “punch a terf!” “fuck terfs lol!” etc. and so little time on trying to listen to trans people, uplift trans people etc. It’s very easy to jump on the wagon in terms of shouting those sentiments, often with good intentions (and very often, let’s be real, for clout as well), but then a lot of the time so little of that energy is turned to actually trying to do any work on your own internalized transphobia, and to trying to support, listen to, and uplift trans people. I see a lot of cis people shouting “fuck terfs” but then turning around and refusing to learn from and engage with actual trans issues past the surface level performance of anti-terf rhetoric. I’m not saying that saying like ‘fuck terfs!’ is a bad thing, obviously. But it does often seem that people will engage in that aspect of rhetoric without making any attempts to be actual by allies and uplifters of the people they claim to be supporting.
And to be clear, I’m cis. And this isn’t me trying to be like “well unlike OTHER cis people I GET it” because no, I have many times had harmful shit I’ve had to unlearn, and I am sure I will continue to learn things and fuck up and need to self examine. This habit of talking the talk without walking the walk is just something I’ve noticed, and something I myself have done in the past. It’s a lot easier to say a trendy (within you know, many leftist circles etc.) slogan than to do actual work, and I think that this is something cis people, including myself, need to keep in mind

Not that I expect anything from a cunt with daddy issues, but not only did you not answer the question you unsurprisingly regurgitated one of the laziest leftist talking points by accusing the electoral college of "favoring white counties." I'm convinced radfems become this stupid because daddy told you 'no.' Not everything is about racism, you vermin.
huh
see, I don't have daddy issues though...

ok now im thinking about pokemon and like. the new 3d models in the new (? would i still call it that) gen are like. theyre fine but the colours look So Bad everything looks So Bad in this game i think. one of their biggest mistakes is using this weird yellow palette
like who thought those two yellows would ever ever ever ever look good WHO??? also not to mention from what ive seen a lot of the models (or art? I havent seen a lot of the art proper so im mostly going off of models) have weird weird colour choices I could never like. imagine looking good
the use of weird greys and blacks and weirdly desaturated greens juxtaposed over a very very pale green or maybe even something like a lack of well-done gradients or very jarring markings makes a lot of pokemon in this gen feel so weird to me
also the very specific yellow they use everywhere WHY DID THEY USE THAT YELLOW AND PUT IT ON LIKE PALE PINKS AND YELLOWS????????????????????????? i cough and die tl;dr: i dont like the colour choices for this game very much

Do you also feel like a lot of Lawlight fics bash Misa even tho they might not mean to? Or just kinda toss her aside? I want to write one she is in but I'm wondering how I can make it clear I have no intention of bashing her, honestly, bc I love her lol. You're the first person I've come across who loves both Lawlight and Misa so I thought i'd ask for your thoughts on it, I'd love to hear...
OMG I TOTALLY AGREE! but sometimes i feel like it's intentional for writers to push her aside/bash her, I've read some fics where they just straight up write her so weird to purposely make her unlikeable but that's literally only really because they actually hate her.
but you are right in some cases it can be completely unintentional, and i feel like it all links to how to write light's misogyny and how he views her. some writers really portray his misogyny in the wrong way i feel, because although yes he is misogynistic he's not explicitly misogynistic towards her - he's more subtle with his misogyny. and i feel like when people write his misogyny as really strong that's why it seems like they're genuinely bashing her, and makes her seem very unlikeable and different to how she actually is in canon. going off on a tangent a bit here but it also doesn't help when the fic writers themselves have very weird views towards women as well as they just end up completely mischaracterizing her even more.
another thing i feel like misa can be really important when it comes to lawlight, like she is dating light in canon after all - i feel like that should be addressed more in canon based fics. i know their relationship never consisted of any communication because its so awkward and uncomfortable but tbh i would love to see them having a mutual break up communication kind - of - thing. i think it would be interesting for them to eventually come to a moment of realisation that there's no point to the relationship anymore, and that they're both tired of pretending it's something they can keep doing. and i know this would hurt misa because of her attachment to light but i also think it would be good for her! so she can heal and move on from the attachment :) tbh it would be good for light too.
