ROUND 2 MATCH 17
Tumblr media
Nomi-Nomi propaganda:
“Most characters have at least one ending where the relationship ends for one reason or another but Nomi-Nomi doesn’t. They’ll stay by your side in any ending. They’re a geek who likes anime and video games. They’re obsessed with studying the flora and fauna of Vertumna so they can use it in their own stories. They’re demisexual. If Sol is nonbinary, they can exchange a secret nonbinary high five. (Which is a regular high five but you’re both nonbinary.)”
John propaganda:
“Sad beef jerky of a man with a sexy voice. He stabs a guy for being rude to you. He's cosplaying actual John Hancock. He's the town mayor that wants to leave and get shot at because he thinks he's getting too full of himself. He's also so, so sad and I need to hug him so bad.”

very curious abt your noelle concept actually... as you said about your vintage wedding dress design. can you go into depth abt that i really wanna know the thoughts behind it!
okok.... i made a post about noelle and kris being "toxic relationship divorcecore" right after chapter 2 came out this post will be basically explaining what that means. the snowgrave (or weird route but i will use snowgrave as this refers specifically to the chapter 2 weird route and may not apply to later chapters) does a lot of cool shit (like if you want the "purposely mimicking a video game creepypasta" rant just ask) but my personal favourite is how it like... kind of forces a relationship between between kris and noelle.
in order activiate and/or get the most out of it in the first place you have to various things including:
1. give noelle a ring(s) for her to wear as a weapon
2. insist that you will ride the ferris wheel with her (which she usually does with susie. her crush)
3. steal noelles clothes and wear them yourself (her watch but still)
4. tell the shopkeeper you're "something else" instead of friends
all of these will make noelle very uncomfortable.
spamton also calls noelle a "hochi mama" (which is a word for "whore", basically) and your ""side chick". aswell as this, if you believe spamtons "hyperlink blocked" means love (which i personally do) he also makes a double-meaning comment about kris and noelle "making (love)".
after the snowgrave route noelle will start to notice kris first in a room when she usually always notices susie first (again. her crush).
my personal interpretation of this is that it is a method of trying to make you (the player) uncomfortable by effectively making you play a really weird game of smashing dolls faces together with characters you like who are having an awful time. it does this by kinda playing with both forced heteronormivity (by forcing the nonbinary kris into a masculine role and forcing noelle, likely a lesbian, into a weird straight-gender-roled relationship she doesnt want) and their family histories of unhappy marriages (with both asgore and toriel as well as rudy and mayor holiday). this is a subversion of how in the normal route you allow kris and noelle to reconnect and become closer in yknow... a normal way.
there is also an argument to be made that the same "make the player feel uncomfortable and bad for fucking up kris' life for their own desires" thing might also be being done with ralsei and his weird crush on kris/us? and him looking like fucking identical to asriel and that making us fans (the guys who made all those "save the goat" aus) want to get closer to him and making kris be not a fan of the fact a guy that looks like their brother keeps flirting with them and that it might be trying to play with like incest-baiting the same way the snowgrave stuff is with that other stuff i mentioned but yknow. not getting into that

4. Lost in Translation
Author: @leatafandom Artist: @lucathepanman
When Sam’s churning soul was jammed back into his body after over a thousand years of being incorporeal, the wall of Death's design had never stood a chance against the changes Sam's soul had undergone to survive the Cage. Upon waking, Sam struggles with being able to cope with the drastic change from being ethereal to being part of the physical world and the strangers he is greeted with. His memories of the human world were absent upon waking within his body. Sam doesn't know how he had ever been part of the physical world, nor how to carve out a spot within it like the youngest archangel had managed to. His empowered soul was lost without the memories of his human life, and he was unsure who to turn to in a world full of strangers that tried to imprison him.

Author: @aayo-whatt Artist: @dustghoul

7.
Author: @nonbinary-witch-sam Artist: @as-lost-as-sams-shoe
The moment the binds went loose, Sam was up, rushing to his lover's body. He was crying, begging Gabriel to wake up, for this all to be a nightmare or a trick. but, he didn't wake up. Gabriel was dead. Sam slowly lifted his head, looking at Lucifer with grief-stricken fury as the surviving archangel went to walk away. "I will kill you before I ever say yes." he vowed, "you will never fight Michael. you will never possess me. I will string up your lifeless body like a puppet and make an example out of you, Lucifer." Gabriel, the real Gabriel, stood quietly behind one of the walls, listening intently to his lover swearing revenge as he tucked his ring into his pocket with a solemn expression.  "I'm sorry, Sam." He whispered before vanishing.

8. Atlas Shattered
Author: mukur0 Artist: @katfixation
After spending humanity's entire history stacking his own hand, Gabriel just can't win. Stuck between a rock and a hard place, too wounded to move faster than his own feet can carry him and too scared to start up where he and Sam had left off before that night at the Elysian Fields hotel, you'd think he'd welcome the chance to hide out in a gross motel room rather than face whatever might be stalking a downed archangel. Too bad for him, he'd almost prefer it over being caught in close quarters with a Winchester who just fucking wants to talk.

9. The Tales Grow Taller On Down The Line
Author: @ladylilithprime Artist: @alexiescherryslurpy
When Bobby Singer got the call from Dean Winchester - "This case is weird even for us and Sam's been compromised, we need help!" - he had expected the hunt to be unusual but still fairly straightforward. Being introduced to Loki, the Norse god of mischief and patron of tricksters, and being told the pagan was Sam's soulmate? Definitely not so straightforward!

10. Carry On (Nothing Equals the Splendour)
Author: @hobbyistauthor Artist: @bakh-meliorism
The New God decides to be hands-on just one last time: there's a specific Winchester—still alive, always in grief—and one particular lost Archangel—whose graveyard didn't fight much to keep him dead—that could really use one of his miracles. To Sam, healing and hope looks like candy in every room of the Bunker and eyes like sunbeams-through-whiskey. To Gabriel, being Graceless yet still wanted gives him time to discover who he is, and who he wants to be.

11. The Trickster Fic
Author: @deadsuburbia Artist: @raaflingdraws
After being stabbed by his brother, Gabriel makes a last-ditch attempt to play a trick on Death itself. He reaches out to Sam Winchester, the only person who would ever look his way after his lifetime of trickery, and begs for help. Taking pity on the angel who played a God, Sam beams himself directly into Gabriel’s mind. The Trickster Fic retells the story of Gabriel from his own perspective: why he turned out the way that he did in his lifetime that spanned over a thousand years. In his very last moments, Gabriel is forced to come face-to-face with the consequences of his running, his cowardice, his own nihlism. Sam has to ask the question: can Gabriel be saved?

Things I've noticed and loved in lmk (and in the fandom)
I just remembered that I have an old Google Doc dedicated to lmk facts/thoughts, so I wanted to share this! Some of these are really well known, but I still find it neat.
Wukong is actually an artist just like MK.
Mayor is the only character with a known kill count (what the actual hell dude)
They had a Lego Monkie Kid hotel partnership only in china. They are meant to market a new season that is meant to come out. Some goodies in said hotel include Lego sets, lmk activity books, stickers, a bag, and more! (I'm still sad that they have it in China only)
PIF used to be a goddess as shown in the season 4 flashback.
Peng is actually canonically nonbinary (very rad)
Macaque basically has the dumbed down version of Wukong's powers
Red son also listens to soft jazz (which is funny). This fact is shown in the key episode!
Macaque can make a mech of himself at will??
THEY FUCKING HAVE COMICS???
The ship names are mostly made of food puns (and it's great).
MK wasn’t joking about the self reflection power. I thought that they played that off for shits and giggles but apparently not?
Some of the writers and storyboard artists draw MK being trans and having he/they pronouns (it's canon guys hehehe).
MK’s characterization was inspired by fry from Futurama (wowzers!)
In the comic/coloring book, Spider queen calls the spiders in her cave her children (AWWW).
The va of Nezha was in bleach and was voicing a power ranger at one point.
Red son canonically has a demon appearance. It's not shown but it's very implied as shown in the wiki.
I can't believe nobody made this point yet, but fresh sans and porty MK are like extremely similar. Someone should make fanart of them together.
Red son canonically has a demon appearance.
Why does the Lego sets show red son without his glasses even though he never took them off until that one season 3 episode?? I know that the Lego sets are made before the seasons, but they made the mistake MULTIPLE times.
I find it funny how silktea shippers only have a few minutes of screen time to go off of.
Gotta love this fandom

Today is nonbinary peoples day ! Owen Exie Hurcum became the first openly nonbinary mayor of any city globally when they became Mayor of Bangor in 2021. They have also written a book about nonbinary identity called Don't Ask Me About My Genitals (which I've read and recommend)

"Ah, Perry the Platypus, your entrance was immaculate. And by immaculate I mean completely maculate!
What do you think of my new rainbow ribbon trap, Perry the Platypus? I got all the ribbon at the Danville Pride Parade, which is also where I got the idea for my latest scheme! Here, let me tell you about it.
You see Perry the Platypus, I was walking home from the annual L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. potluck yesterday when I got caught up in this big pride parade. At first I was annoyed because who throws a parade in the middle of a street? But then I realized just how many people there were. Anyone who could control their opinion could easily be elected as the new Mayor. And that's when I came up with the idea for this:
THE TRANS-YOUR-GENDER-INATOR!
With this, Perry the Platypus, I will release a wave of body-altering energy that will immediately change everyone's bodies to perfectly match their gender identity and cure dysphoria! Trans women will have their ideal woman body, trans men will have their ideal man body, and nonbinary people will... I don't know, turn into dragons or something I guess. Point being, whatever they want to look like is what they will be! And once I announce this deed to the world, the Pride community will be so overwhelmingly thankful, they will unanimously elect me to be ruler of the Tri-State Area!
Now, just to wait for it to finish charging up. I had to train it with the hidden search histories of conservative politicians, so it's still scanning the computer for the last few bits of data. It should be ready to go any minute now...
Perry the Platypus, this is normally when you break free and destroy my inator, did I make the trap too tight? Here, let me cut you out so we can get rolling... wait Perry the Platypus where are you going? Perry the Platypus, that's not the self destruct button!
Perry the Platypus, you activated the Trans-Your-Gender-Inator? But you're supposed to thwart me!
What's this you just pulled out of your tiny little wallet? A Trans Lives Matter card?! Curse you Perry the Platypus!... which I have mixed feelings about saying since you actually helped my scheme!"

LMK Ride Or Die AU
The AU is (relatively) parallel to cannon up to a point.
Sun Wukong (60), World famous Dancer and musician, wants to retire. He holds a battle of the bands style contest in Megapolis (his hometown), in which the winner will receive his Lucky golden Microphone (staff equivalent), and the opportunity to become his apprentice.
Mac (Macaque) is a bass player/beatboxer/break-dancer who turns out to be Sun wukong's twin brother, the black sheep of the family.
MK (21), a college freshman that works part time at his adopted father's noodle shop “Pigsy’s noodles” [his name is Paul, (42)], and a music prodigy with the uncanny ability to learn any instrument in under an hour, thinks it would be neat to enter the contest with his friend Mei [(22, Popular Twitch streamer and music buff, Heiress of the dragon family (Old Money)], who has been wanting to start a band since forever.
They convince Tang [(38, Paul’s Husband, accomplished Scholar and teacher at Malin’s college)] to be their manager, and recruit Sandy [(43, Ex con, Lyricist/poet, and lifetime friend of Paul] to write their songs. Calls themselves “the Monkie Kids”.
Red Kingston [(23), Red Son] A robotics genius trying to break into the music industry to spite his parents; Penelope Kingston [(48), princess iron fan, retired actress] and Bruce Kingston [(52), Demon Bull King, founder of Bullcorp [Apple equivalent Tech company]] decides to compete; seeing it as an opportunity to kickstart his career.
Other notable competitors are Jin and Yin (20) [Soundcloud rappers and Classmates of MK], and Malin Meister [(19), Nonbinary Social media influencer, rising Independent Artist/performer, and child of the late Laura Demona (58, Lady Bone Demon alternate, once an Actress and bitter Rival to Sun Wukong)].
The Monkie kids win, and MK gets chosen as Wikongs’s successor.
Red acts as the main antagonist, until new competition in the form of Spider Queen (22, Melissa bitsy) and her lackeys show up and threaten to throw the rest of them into obscurity, forcing them to work together to take her down.
For the main group, the majority of the plot goes much the same way as the cannon story; The crew learns the ins and outs of music production, how to operate in the music industry, improve their skills, compete to get gigs, become closer as a group;
But things get shaken up for Malin and Milton [(21), The not mayor alternate. Son of a corrupt politician/ Businessman who’s always overseas, trust fund kid. Plays right hand man/platonic life partner to Malin. He loves their 5D chess like approach to navigating life, and relies on their devastating smarts, weirdly accurate prediction skills, and artistic talent to get by] a week or so after Wukong’s contest.
Malin finishes editing their latest video, and decides to get something to eat as they wait for it to upload. They leave their office and go downstairs to see Milton standing, dazed and confused, in their Livingroom.
At least, they thought he was Milton. Until the actual Milton knocks at their door.
[”Oh, you don’t need to worry about me. I’m fine.” Milton smiles. Malin is about to respond, when they feel a faint buzz in their pocket.
They look away from him to check their phone, face twisting in mild worry ”Are you certain you're okay, Milt? You never come over unannounced, and you've been acting pretty weird since you got here. something has to be wro-….” the words die in their throat as they unlock the device, confusion blossoming forth, as the text {”I'm outside.”} **was displayed on the screen, Clearly sent from Milton's phone number. Their blood ran cold, looking back at the man they had previously believed to be their friend, and seeing no phone in his hand.
It was strange, Malin hadn't noticed before. He looked exactly like Milton, from his head to his toes. He had the same voice, the same verbal ticks and gestural mannerisms; even his clothes resembled something they had seen on their friend before.
His eyes, though. Pure white, with no Irises or pupils, emanating a soft light they had previously mistook for the sun shining weirdly through the window. It was in that moment Malin realized that he hadn't blinked even once. during the whole conversation he had just sat there, not blinking or breathing. For a whole hour.
They looked at the front door, a sick feeling rising in their stomach as they made their way over. “Milton” made no move to stop them, just leaning back on the couch and crossing his legs with that familiar disarming smile. Malin gripped their self control with hands of iron composure, gulped, and opened the door.
……
……….
That was not Milton.]
They throw open the door, grab the real Milton and bolt, thoughts flashing between a reasonable “strange man broke into my house” to a maybe not as unreasonable as previously thought “Shape-shifters that want to steal our skin”
Of course, the mayor has unspeakable Eldritch power, so it's no chore for him to chase them both all over town and heard them into Milton’s manor. Once safely locked inside, cornered and terrified, The mayor explains to them that he’s from an alternate universe, answers their questions, assures them that he's not going to hurt them, basically waiting for them to stop panicking.
When the both of them calm down enough to make sense, he demands asks if he can stay with one of them until he can “find a way back to his universe”. he Just needs to rest here for a while “And then I’ll be out of your hair.” The threat behind his words Is crystal clear, and while Milton is sick with unease, Malin is confident in their ability to Handle This.
Milton takes Malin aside to discuss this with them
[”……. You have a plan, right?” “Milton, I appreciate your faith in me. But I'm not a miracle worker.” “Mal- come on. there has to be a way out of this.” “A wise man once said: Sometimes the way out isn't over, or around; but straight through.” “….I don't like this..” “If you're scared, he can stay at my house-” “No way.” “Then the only way out is..” Milton sighs, Malin pants him on the shoulder “We can rotate, I take him every other week.” “Mal I… I don't feel comfortable leaving you alone with this guy-”
“Every other week?” The Mayor interrupts from his spot on the other side of the room “That sounds like a great idea! That way, I can spend an equal amount of time with the both of you..”
They both take a moment to look at the man, standing well out of normal hearing range. Disquiet displayed on One, and determination emanating from the other “… Are you sure?” “Are you doubting my abilities?” “No- I'm worrying about your safety.” “I thought that was my job?” “Malin.” “I'll be fine, Milt. Just trust me.” Milton takes a breath “….. Always.]
And that was that. For the rest of the season the Mayor just kinda hangs out, helping around when he feels like it, advising them when they need it, being creepy when he thinks its funny, learning about their world. Malin’s just wondering when he'll get around to killing them.
Malin and Milton, go on to do their villain thing, plotting the downfall of “The Monkie Kids”.
A month before the main story, Malin discovered something that tied Sun Wukong to the death of their mother (its a long story), and has been waiting for an opportunity to do something about it ever since they found out.
Participating in his contest was a bust, so they move on to Constructing a plan around the annual Lunar New Year Music Deathmatch Tournament, Which Malin is certain The Monkie Kids will be participating in.
They plan to orchestrate a scenario that will allow them to confront Sun Wukong at the event; the result of said confrontation either being closure, or a domino effect that will defame Sun Wukong, destroy the main crew’s friendship, careers, and everything they’ve built; All the while boosting their own fame in one go.
Destiny, Fate, and inevitability is gonna be a big theme in this AU. In cannon, The Lady Bone Demon used the spider queen and her failure to kickstart her own conquest. This conquest causing the entire series to focus on her downfall.
And much of the same was supposed to happen in this alternate universe. Maybe not step for step and word for word, but the ultimate goal was congruent.
Spider queen’s crew would come back for vengeance. Malin would “assist” her, maneuvering her into a position that would briefly look like victory, a position that would place Sun Wukong within Malin's reach. Malin would confront him, and he would tell them that “Laura got herself killed.”
Outside events would prevent him from elaborating (he didn’t do it), and Malin would take that as a confession. In the wake of The Monkie Kids victory, The unfairness of it all would drive Malin to do everything in their power to take “The Monkie Kids” down, Ultimately resulting in their own defamation, abandonment, and eventual destruction.
But the introduction of the mayor had changed things.
Weirdly enough, the Mayor wasn't very secretive. Milton and Malin Didn't exactly know what they expected from an ancient, eldritch, space warping, gravity defying, scary as hell demon guy claiming to be an alternate universe version of one of them, but “being an open book” was absolutely not it.
He answered all of their questions, shared events that happened in his universe readily, and was more than happy to divulge information Malin couldn't even pry out of their own mother (when she was alive). Perhaps it was because nothing either of them could do would ever hurt him, Perhaps it was because he knew the both of them were too terrified of him to Inquire something that warranted more than a surface level explanation, perhaps he just didn't care, but the end result was the same.
One day before the Lunar New Year Music Deathmatch Tournament, Malin was standing in their living room, Watching the front of their house through the window. All of the arrangements had been made, the stage was set, And the show was ready to begin. All they were waiting for was a phone call from Milton, confirming that the last of the loose ends had been tied up.
The Mayor watched as well; He had been watching this whole time. This human was an interesting kind of dull. The way their eyes diligently snapped across every room showed their constant awareness of their surroundings. The intentional nature of their word and action, from the tiniest of gestures to the loudest of voices, spoke of iron self control. The extensive charts, lists, notes, and written observations on every being they have, are, and/or will ever meet demonstrates their borderline obsession with manipulation and control; however, the location in which they kept these documents exposes either simple civilian ineptitude, or a total lack of care for who might walk in and see it
[Opening the door, he was greeted with quite the spectacle. An entire room filled with documents and poster boards and conspiracy charts on every individual he had seen them interacting with, they even had one on him!
The war room isn't much of a surprise. It was true that Malin didn't look like the plotting and scheming type, but extensive interaction with them would at least clue one into their acute awareness of other people and their lives. In his eyes, it was a show of social competency; he was a little impressed with their attention to detail. But, Really? Above ground?? Just out in the open??? not even a lock on the door????).]
Malin was most like his lady, their mother, in the way that they approached the world. How they took it, struggling and fighting, into their merciless hands and gently shooshed it until it came to heel. They hungered for it’s salvation, and destruction in equal measure.
They would make a fine replacement.
It was in this moment that the Mayor decided to reveal to Malin what had happened to his version of her mother, Explaining every event, beginning to end, in full detail and leaving out nothing.
When Malin hears about their alternate mother’s plans, actions, and her subsequent downfall; and draws the parallels between those events and events in their life; They realize that they are very close to setting off a series of events that just might spell their own downfall… They stop, and they think.
Mayor expects his words to cause them to turn to him for help (trying to lure them into accepting his Eldritch power, warlock style) but is surprised when Malin instead calls Milton to cancel their dastardly plot.
[They get this… feeling in their chest. Like a chime ringing deep within their soul, and come to a decision. The phone rings for a moment, once again, and then three times. Milton’s voice filters through the speaker.
{”The arrangements have been made, we wait for your confirmation”}
“There has been a change of plans. Cancel the envoy, I’ll compete myself.”
The other end is quiet for a moment, Malin hears his silent confusion clear as day. One might worry for a seed of doubt using this moment to take root and sprout, but Malin knows better. At the end of the day, their friend beholds their word for gospel. It seems that this instance is no different.
{”Okay, Milton out.”}
The line goes dead, and Malin pulls the phone from their ear to look at the dark screen. They’re usually grateful for such a loyal and obedient ally; but they worry for him, sometimes.
”I’ve no reason to worry, you’re usually right about everything…”
they sigh, oh Milton..
Malin turns to face The Mayor, face set in concentration as a new plot began to blossom in their mind “I will not bend to the wheel of fate, nor will I fall as my mother has. As any version of her has. There is another way, There always is.”
Oh? A mote of anticipation rises alongside his surprise, the Mayor feels a familiar smile creep onto his face “Then what will you do?”
Malin looks back out the window, watching as Mk and his friend once again cut through their neighborhood; completely unaware of the jaws of death that always loomed nearby.
They turned back to him, looking over their shoulder as the light of a new idea shone through the crumbling cracks of the old one “I’m going to make some new friends.”

here’s a loosely speculative and rambly queer reading of dess that i sort of accidentally wrote just now. enjoy ?? ?
the more i think on it the more i think like. yeah noelle might very well be canonically a transgirl. as a lot of people have speculated, we might get the subtext when the mayor and dess are revealed to be does without antlers — we have the “horned girl and her sister” line, and it does seem a little odd that the story is so far withholding information on the mayor or dess’s appearances. and aside from the confirmation just being dope as hell on its own merits, i also think it might matter in relation to dess’s possible conflicts as a metaphorically queer person in a small town, maybe specifically with her mother
because the thing is, queerphobia literally doesn’t exist in utdr’s universes as far as we can tell. it doesn’t make sense for their mom to be angry with dess for being trans, gay, or GNC, because being those things isn’t considered rebellious or deviant in this world — it’s perfectly within the range of normal. it fits within her mother’s worldview. noelle is a trans lesbian and as far as we can tell it’s perfectly fine; their mom probably wouldn’t be upset either way if dess continued to be her daughter or came out as her son or as her nonbinary child. the mayor herself is gender-nonconforming — a tough, powerful woman in a position of high authority who can punch a man so hard that he blacks out.
but that doesn’t mean there can’t still be queer-flavored conflicts — perhaps a parent upset with her child for pursuing hobbies and passions that she thinks are inappropriate for her, that aren’t in line with what she understands or respects; for not dressing or behaving or growing up in the ways she thinks her children should. a parent angry with her child for not following rules that, in her mind, are in the child’s best interests to follow — rules that she thinks should protect dess from a world that just Wouldn’t Be Kind To Someone Like Her. a parent feeling personally attacked when her child chooses a new name for herself, rejecting the one she gave to her. a parent feeling hurt and abandoned when the person her child chooses to be in the world isn’t the person she expected or wanted.
to very briefly speculate on specifics: consider the possibility that, while rudy and noelle only ever refer to dess by her chosen name, the mayor may insist on calling her “december.” and, while it does make sense in-universe for someone to suspect the worst from dess’s vanishing, consider the imagery of a parent possibly considering her young adult child “dead” after that person made choices for herself that she found frightening and confusing.
noelle, while arguably just as “queer” as dess (see her quiet fascination with the weird and strange, and her desire to be closer with both susie and kris, both characters who, aside from being literally queer, are also very metaphorically queer in their own rights) might be avoiding this conflict by essentially “closeting” herself around her mom — minimizing herself as a form of self-preservation (for example, stifling her emotional outbursts while playing video games so her mom doesn’t know she’s playing them). this is of course oppressive to her, as well — it’s simply that noelle has traditionally prioritized her safety, while dess may have prioritized her liberty. dess, while perhaps not literally queer like noelle, is metaphorically “out,” and while being out has its own rewards, it may have cost her their mom’s sympathy and respect.
none of this is to preemptively demonize the mayor — we haven’t even met her yet — but to speculate on a possible character flaw that could reasonably have driven dess away, and may be redeemed over the course of the story. the mayor may need to redeem herself before dess can, or is willing to, return.
and i don’t think it’s just her mom. i think her mom, as the town’s mayor, might be in part representative of dess’s relationship to the town itself — a small, insular community that dess feels limits her choices and opportunities, especially as a young adult with big dreams. we know she dreamed of taking noelle to the big city someday.
…something i think about a lot is the line about dess wearing asriel’s jacket — how classically Straight and heteronormative that imagery is. to be clear, that’s not in any way meant as a knock on the legitimacy of dess and asriel’s relationship itself (i have some more nuanced thoughts on dessriel, and the value it has thematically or whatever, that i don’t really think are really relevant here. but i don’t think dessriel is in any way bad LOL), nor does it mean that i think asriel or their relationship is necessarily heteronormative in the literal sense (asriel himself is arguably GNC from the little bit we currently know about him).
it’s more that the framing here seems to emphasize how traditional and exceedingly “normal” the relationship was considered to be, something that may have been at odds with dess’s interests and ambitions as a young, “queer” person. asriel is quite literally the boy next door — sweet, nice, non-threatening. they grew up together; their parents and little siblings are close friends. they’re a boy and a girl in a perfect narrative position to date — hiro and mari — so of course they did. who else would she have dated? pizzapants? meangirl bratty? i could see her feeling boxed in to that option, among so many other options she felt she never had a real say in. asriel may be a great boyfriend, healthy and stable and exceedingly normal, but who’s to say she wanted “normal”? what if she wanted something queer?
if we think about why dess might have run away, why she would have wanted to escape, and why she might have found the fantasy of the dark worlds so captivating that she lost herself to them, i think this could be one way to read into it. dess is — at least metaphorically — a young, queer person, lonely and existentially bored in a small town that cares about her but, from her perspective, doesn’t seem to really understand her, doesn’t give her the option to really be who she wants to be. maybe she just wanted to find another queer person like her. and, who knows — maybe she did.

LMK/JTTW gender headcanons & how they respond when asked about their identities:
Im he/they myself so some of these may be self-projecting. A lot are joking, but some are legit examinations. I also hc that gender is a lot more accepted as fluid amongst demons than in a lot of celestials. pls respond with your own thoughts:
Sun Wukong: "Oh I was born under the kun trigram, but I'm a guy a lot of the time." Has personally stolen every form of gender expression he's ever found like peaches from the royal orchard. Transmasc + Genderfluid, He/Him.
Macaque: "I was born under the Xùn trigram, so I guess I don't fall into mortal norms. I just take whatever role I can get really." Gender as fluid as the shadows he controls. Doesnt care what label is put on them. Happily takes feminine titles/roles as long as they are seen as equal to their male counterparts. Intersex + Nonbinary, He/She/They
MK: "I was born afab but I indentify as he/they. I first thought I was a really masc girl, but then a customer called me "A Fine Young Man" once and it changed my whole life. I have it all documented right here in my journal and-" *infodumps his whole journey of personal gender identity for the next three hours* Transmasc He/They
Mei: "I'm a ♡Girl♡. But like, mostly for the aesthetic." (✿◠‿◠) Wears her identity and orientation proudly on her sleeves. Transfem She/They/Neopronouns
Red Son: "Who dares limit the heir of the great Demon Bull Family to one gender!? I will personally claim each and every title for my own! Prince and Princess? Both mine! Go get your own gender, peasant!" Secretly has internal crisis on wanting to be seen as his father's heir/son, but also not wanting to just be seen as Male? Give her a minute to process. Any pronouns.
Bai He/LBD's Host: "Ummm... I dunno yet." *gets distracted by a cat* She/Her for now.
Pigsy: "Uh...?" *checks smudged handwriting on palm* "Mam-male? I guess? Stop distracting me while I'm cooking." Chubby transmasc swag (self-projection ahoy), He/Him.
Tang: "Demiboy. I live for the fear in people's eyes as they panic to refer to me by a gendered title. A student panicked once and called me Professor and it's stuck since." Has a catalog/dictionary of every gender identity in the world, mortal and demonic. He/They
Sandy: "What ever you can be! Your gender can be a huge part of your identity and how you interact with the world- Oh wait, you're asking for my pronouns? Sorry I got distracted. He/Him please." Like almost embarassingly supportive of gender expression and exploring one's identity. He/Him
Princess Iron Fan: "I grew up with so many sisters and I feared that I was never feminine enough to match up to the court's standards that I- I'm a woman, you idiot." It's complicated. She/Her
DBK: "I dunno man I just got here." Is aggressively supportive no matter what. Called Red his daughter once and panicked when Red started crying with joy, thinking he'd misgendered his son. Doesn't care for masculine norms. He/Him
Nezha: "What, are you a cop? I just like pink." Developed thoughts about his gender identity after his revival and has started to shift away from being aggressively masculine in behaviour just to appease the Jade court. Genderfluid, He/They
Lady Bone Demon/LBD: "Whatever I identity as will be insignificant once I've completed my goals." She/They
The Mayor: "Mayor." He/It pronouns
Spider gang:
Spider Queen: "What part of Queen did you not hear!?" Wukong was the first person to ever recognise her as a girl back in the day and it makes her thoughts on him really complicated. Transfem, She/Her
Hunstman: "What part of Huntsman did you not hear?" Violently protects the others when they get misgendered. Transmasc, He/Him
Strong Spider/Goliath: "Whatever can protect my friends better!" Is the one to de-escalate when Huntsman violently jumps to protect them. Any pronouns.
Syntax: "Syntax Error: Missing/Unmatched Parentheses." *laughs in math nerd* He/They
Spindrax: "Whatever kind of girl Mei is, I think. But like... a different aesthetics." She/They/neopronouns
Demon Gang:
Jin & Yin: "You blind, mate?" "We're clearly both-" (talking over one another) "Lasses!/Blokes! Wuh?! You're?! Oh bruv/sis I didn't know! Forgive me!" *both hug eachother in support* Both trans She/Her & He/Him.
Lin/Demon Accountant: "In this economy? I'm lucky to afford Me's and I's!" She/They/It/Neopronouns
Scorpion Queen: "GIRL!!! Oh, sorry! I'm a little new to this and I get a little overexcited. Tang calls it Gender Euphoria. I like it!" Transfem, She/Her
Tudi: "*indescernable, but delighted to answer*" He/They
The Brotherhood:
Azure Lion: "I am male, obviously. Why do you think I grow out my beautiful mane?" Transmasc; JttW accidentally outed him and he never forgave the author. Guanyin tried to cover for him by saying he was a "gelded lion" (canon), but he's still mad about it. He/Him.
Peng: "You do not know who I am? I am the great Golden-Winged Peng of Camel Ridge!" Canonically non-binary. They/Them
Yellowtusk: *just nods and returns to cup of tea* Any pronouns.
OG Pilgrims:
Tripitaka: "...It is impolite to inquire such things." Has a really complicated gender identity journey tied to their upbringing as a monk + their aroace orientation. Always thought there was something "broken" about them since they could not see themselves as either binary genders, but experienced euphoria when Wukong introduced them to non-binary identities. Agender, They/Them
Zhu Bajie: "Isn't gender one of those things Wukong stole from Heaven?" Has no idea what anyone's talking about, but trans and demi-women means more women for him no matter their body type. Cis, He/Him
Sha Wujing: "Yeah." *doesnt elaborate further* He/They
Ao Lie: "I'm a horse." :3 Any pronouns.

Baixie
{White blood /白血}
( WARNING: MURDER / DEATH / DECAPITATION / ETC YOU MAY NOT READ IF DISTURBED !!!! )
nonbinary/aroace/they/them
( they are a child in they're physical form but they are spiritually a teen )
Baixie was created by LBD as a role of her servant even though hes a child and he grew with fear for his own "mother". ever since LBD found the emperor she used to work for She had been more harsh on Baxie in closed doors and forced him to take part in being the emperors servant.
they didnt surprisingly well at serving the emperor due to the fear that he would harm them just like how LBD did but then something happened. a guard had caught LBD talking to Baixie about the plan she did for "perfection" and told the emperor and planed the execution for Baixie since the emperor really trusted him.
the cause of they're death was being left in the mountains while he was being hanged on a nearby tree causing his head to pop off and the guards slashed his arm and both of his feet so he couldnt run away.
LBD then resurrected Baixie after the victory of defeating the emperor just to be her harbinger instead and suffer more even in death. that was until SWK and the pilgrims locked away LBD and then sealed them away in the same calabash along with "the mayor" that jin and yin used for MK and the calabash broke.
the only people Baixie fully trusted and saw them as a true parental was Macaque and spiderqueen the only reason why they trusted macaque even though they know he doesnt have good intentions is because he was the only person that spended the most time with them even on missions appreciating his best effort as if they were bonding as a family making them feel safe for the first time ever and taught him on how to fight properly. and as for spiderqueen she didnt treat him like a servant like all of her spiderbots most of the time she wouldnt allow them to fight why? Baixie is only a innocent child dying at such a young age no one should deserve it she doesnt want him to get hurt. but then Baixie asked spiderqueen to give them a chance to fight just for her and to feel worthy enough its mostly for her though so she gave him charm spells to help him during battle and it cannot run out.
Baixie once called spiderqueen mom on accident and she called them her spiderling :)
powers:
ice claw ( the ice claw is surprisingly light for them to lift but its heavy if a human tries to hold it. when the ice claw smashes something really hard ice spikes instantly shoot out from the spot being smashed )
he literally inherited LBDs powers after her defeat ( well half of it )
shadow flames ( despite the darkness it has it gives off warmth of peace for Baixie because Macaque himself gifted him that power for a safe space and to ambush people )
charm curses ( the charms come in with four types shield for defense and poison to poison others when touched by the charm they barely used that one tho. healing for health treatment obv and fire its like any normal flames but it can purify corrupted stuff

I need to vent while I cry so au that I might delete later. This is also very much and will always be a first draft.
Tw for homophobia and transphobia
So, basically the entire akuma class is queer. Adrien is nonbinary, Ivan is trans, Marinette is god knows what, I feel like the rest is obvious. Mylene is the only cishet there but she will quicker turn to violence then let anyone talk shit to her friends or boyfriend.
Ms B is the most supportive adult in some of their livess so they confide in her when they're trying to figure something out. Andre (the mayor) somehow catches wind of something queer in his daughter's class and turns out he is a little homophobic, but whats worse is audrey is mega homophobic. She makes him do law things and make it mandatory for teachers to report kids who are openly out.
Chloe confronts them but they shut her down and honestly scare her. They don't find out about Chloe but they do find out about Zoe. Someone reported her at school and Andre thought isolation with fix any problem so he went full Agreste and made her stay in a room as far from chloe as possible. This situation is what causes Chloe to actually offer a sister relationship with zoe. She sat outside Zoe's door, unallowed in, and talked for hours, sliding homework under the door and working together. Chloe needs to ask for advice but Ms B is telling the class she had to resign for everyone's sake. The temp teacher is some dude and the first thing he does is introduce himself then his personal beliefs. Those beliefs are better left unsaid and the class kinda gets loud for a sec and he threatens them and they get a little louder, thinking there is power in numbers but he shuts them down, saying he will report only one of them if the rest got quiet. At random he picks chloe. He threatened to slowly make his way through the class until no one was left. Before anyone argued he had already made a note.
The next thing you know, chloe is getting yelled at and her parents are saying less than kind things. For some reason, they're like, isolation isn't working and then send chloe to conservation camp. This is now chloleka. Juleka, Luka, Zoe, and Rose plan a heist when they find out from Zoe who finally snuck out, and get some of their classmates to help. 'Girl'squad sleepovers at alya's and Marinette's, safety in numbers and all that, plus they know alya and Marinette's parents are safe. Heist goes down, chloleka have a choni kiss and escape. Everything goes smooth except someone tried to stab Luka and Zoe stopped them, taking some damage in the process. They skedadle, getting home safe. The class is very much in a safety in numbers mindset. Gabriel literally just doesn't care so a lot of sleep overs happen and Adrien's. They just try to get through the school year, there are some close calls, chloe and zoe don't return to school, Gabe finds out Adrien is nonbinary and just starts a new fashion line that plays on both feminine and masculine traits.
And yeah, I feel better now so they all live happily every after, chloe and zoe get online education, courtesy of Gabe. They all graduate and move into one big apartment complex and live happily ever after, finding family in the familiar and hope where there was none. Also luka and zoe bonded after the heist and idk if that makes sense as a relationship but my limited knowledge of current ml allows me to say they do.
Happy pride month. Screw anyone who preaches hate. I love you. No matter who you are or what you've done there is a place in my heart with over a thousand capacities to fill for anyone who needs it.

I cannot even begin to fathom the pressure that a single indie artist would have, doing a kids' graphic novel reboot for a show that's had a fanbase sustaining itself for FIFTEEN YEARS off nothing but a trio of seasons and its own increasingly esoteric, elaborate Fanon Lore.
Like, it's physically impossible to address everything readers want in 200 pages of PG-rated comic panels. Even if it was the best written story in the history of media with staggering artwork, someone won't like how it defies fanon, or caters to fanon, or is too dark, or not dark enough, or whatever. All it really can be is a decent story in its own merit.
.......But I'm not writing the Danny Phantom comic, so here's a list of things I'm hoping to see, in order from most to least likely:
Dark Dan comes back and is sexy. (Already confirmed.)
Vlad getting some kind of character growth or edge towards redemption. (Decently likely, would be surprised if it didn't happen.)
Mention of how Maddie/Jack are taking the identity reveals, ideally with realizing how they tried to murder their son for months. (This'll almost certainly happen, but if it's done well, that's another controversy. :P)
Valerie getting some form of closure to her Vlad-tech hunter revenge arc. (She's confirmed to be in the comic, so probably...?)
Related, Valerie having a freakin moment to address her ex being Phantom and how weird that is. (Equal odds of this happening ooor it being pushed aside for the Greater Threat, imo.)
I think Danny should get to cry once. It's a lot of pressure and he's a kid and he didn't get to even once in the show.
Dani shows up! (Not confirmed, but maybe a cameo?)
Tucker gets fired from being the mayor. I like Tuck, but come on.
More content for the trans!Danny theory. (PLEASE, just like, one binder in a background shot or a pink and blue flag somewhere, please)
Danny/Vlad identity reveals getting retconned through time travel. (May be a bit of a cop-out, but has enough precedence in canon to be possible.)
Obsessions/cores/Ancients namedropped and therefore becoming Real Canon. (Possible.)
Wes becoming canon. (Less possible, but funnier.)
Clockwork nonbinary pronouns canonized.
My OC specifically becoming canon.
