#the power inside a family

[w1lmuttart]

Omake that keeps me up at night redraw 🕺✨

#hey hello hi the implications and stuff in this omake makes my brain spin like the inside of a microwave #like the way sho figures out he has powers and immediately links it to fighting and violence #toichirou really had influence over baby sho and it seems like seeing his mom crying is what made him go ''oh shit that's bad actually'' #or like at least lead them to have that conversation #one doesn't show us a lot of backstory for sho's family but the small bits we get makes me go D': #i am holding him gently #mob psycho 100 #mp100 #mp100 manga redraw

My feeling right now about the cast

#in some capacity #they all know something fucked up #but sam knows in the most clueless way #breaking it down. sam has seen shit he about the magnus institute he wants to understand because it haunts him #alice knows much more than she lets on. shes seen something within the government's office that fucked her up. #maybe one of her previous coworkers who got fucked up? maybe shes an insider for the group who has the man in black? hmmmm #lena is boss lady probably starkwall related. working beyond her work description. regarding cover ups? #gwen saw stuff her family was privvy to one way or another and wants that power #colin knows about the recordings. saw somw lines if code in the system that fucked him up. ate some keyboards at work idk #and celia? oh boy celia definitely works for aomething pn the putside and infiltrated the govt to gwt some inside stuff. #shes seen and knows it all... whether from tapes or its her she knows about the multiverse #tmagp #the magnus protocol #tmagp spoilers

Okay, but I keep imagining Cal and Merrin exploring a planet and literally every time they come across a weird plant Merrin is like “I’ll pay you 20 credits if you eat that.”

Greez hates it when she does this and at some point Cere had to tell BD-1 to shock her whenever she says it, because she genuinely believes that Cal would actually eat the weird plant someday.

He knows it’s a joke, but Cal sometimes weighs the pros and cons in his head. Like this could actually kill him, but 20 credits is 20 credits.

#based on irl events #it’s become an inside joke with my family now #star wars #jedi fallen order #cal kestis #nightsister merrin #greez dritus #cere junda #why don’t they have a family name yet? #I’m calling them the mantis fam(tis) now #And none of you are powerful enough to stop me #shitpost #I’m

By the end of Reverse 1999's live service, our beloved yuri square has grown into a whopping yuri hectogon, with relationship dynamics so fucking convoluted with how many people are in there and how everyone's interactions interlap with each other to the point spaghetti looks more comprehensible than this

#reverse 1999 #certified storm moments #the obvious answer to it would be an international polycule that spans actual time and space #vertin introduces her partners to her mom (if she's. still alive and around) and suddenly more than a dozen people filter into the room #they can't all fit inside the room. vertin's mother starts sweatdropping. there are more people outside. #sapphic charm runs in the family but vertin's mother didn't think it would be turn out to be this powerful in her daughter. #honestly i don't think vertin knows all of them personally its just. like i said a yuri hectogon. some of it is one-sided some of them have #never met in person. some of them are ambivalent to others. some are platonic. some are romantic. some are queerplatonic. etc etc. #dont take this seriously i just like shitposting man

He Is Literally Gay. ... whoa 😦 michael of "our son with a girl? 🤨" fame... good for him 👍

#i knew this but like . it just Hit me rn idk #the fact that she kisses him in front of a closet that separates them perfectly with him fully inside of it. #and then the next season shows a one way sign pointing to his closet. #and then he can't hug will and 'shitty knock-off' and he didn't flinch when will said 'what about us?' and 'from mike' and 'i felt like i #lost you' (which proves the hop letter in the bg of s3 WAS related to him and will) and 'it's hawkins it's not the same without you' and #him nodding when will said what he said on top of the car and nina's lover is never coming back and mike's face during the confession #and mike's face when will prompted him to 'confess' to el and mike's objective fucking LIES during that 'confession' i just. #he is gay. #hop's line about him changing? about how he misses will? mike's inability to say ily to eleven romantically? our son with a girl? #mike always calling el his family and friend and talking about her powers and being a superhero vs being an actual person? #AND THE FLOWERS THAT HE GAVE EL THAT WERE TOO MUCH YELLOW... AND HIM FOCUSING ON WILL NOT TALKING TO HIM #BUT NOT HIS LITERAL FUCKING GIRLFRIEND AND FRIEND BEING HARASSED AND UPSET AFTER? #HIS BREATHLESSNESS AND NERVOUSNESS ABOUT THE PAINTING? HOW HIS FACE DROPPED WHEN WILL SAID #EL COMMISSIONED IT? THE OUTSIDE JONATHAN POV SHOT AND HOW MIKE LOOKS AT WILL THERE? #bro i'm . [FLATLINES]

@ those people who consider Anakin to be just as bad or worse than Palpatine, are you ok? Like is everything alright up there? Got to be one of the most out there takes I’ve ever heard.

#Palpatine blew up whole planets and murdered billions #Anakin is cannonicly his victim that he groomed since Anakin was 9 years old #Anakin was a wondeful lightside jedi until the abuse and grooming took over and he was forced to make a choice #meanwhile Palpatine was plotting the downfall of the whole galaxy #Anakin was born into slavery with nothing and just wanted love understanding and family #while Palpatine wanted absolute power and delighted in destroying Anakin from the inside out #Anakin is a trauma victim with CPTSD and arguably BPD #palpatine is an abuser #anakin skywalker #star wars #anakin star wars #anakin and obi wan #anakin needs therapy #anakin #stop this victim blaming horseshit #Anakin never was and never will be the same as Palpatine #not to mention he yeeted Palpatine off the Death Star #my boy was a hero in the end he chose the light #while Palpatine doesn’t have a pinprick of goodness #George Lucas compares him to the devil for a reason

I JUST MADE MYSELF EXTREMELY SAD

So, you know the magic au I referenced earlier? I was thinking about what magical creature attributes/abilities it would be fun to give all the characters, and my brain went "Oh, the Benedict twins should have siren powers, which is why Curtain is so good at manipulation" BUT FOR SOME REASON THE NEXT LOGICAL THOUGHT WAS "And Nicholas refuses to speak because he's afraid of hurting people so everyone thinks he's mute, because he's scared he'll end up like his brother and he thinks the only reason Milligan/Rhonda/Number Two/any of his family listen to/love him is because he somehow subconsciously forced them to"

#WHOOO #TIRED SOPHIE BRAIN NEEDS TO LEARN WHEN TO SHUT UP #Of course this does make sense for how he's so easily understanding of Milligan's curse #BUT WHAT ON EARTH WHERE DID THIS COME FROM #The idea of him only using ASL/written notes/morse code #And muffling any screams or noise he might make from frustration or exhaustion or fear or nightmares #And researching how to counter siren powers not only to stop Curtain #But so he can “free” his family from being forced to care about him :( #Oh dear why is the inside of my brain so sad

The Poisons We Drink

YA urban fantasy

a girl who brews powerful potions is coerced into making potions to interfere with D.C.’s most influential politicians in an attempt to stop a dangerous Witcher Registration Act from passing, and will do anything to protect her sister after their mother is killed

bi MC, nonbinary love interest

arc from netgalley

#The Poisons We Drink #aroaessidhe 2023 reads #this is…….a lot of cool ideas but also so many elements and high stakes that i kinda lost track of them #the pacing is weird. the worldbuilding is random? #why is brewing SO overpowered & risky for her but the other powers seem to have pretty normal low-scale risks? #it’s definitely ambitious and has some cool ideas and also some great characters just. didn’t execute as well as I’d like #as much as we’re told the main threat is the government trying to put through a Registration Act #most of the actual antagonism we see is from other Witchers? #like the systemic discrimination got a bit lost in the witcher family drama and murder politics #important things to say about oppression and police violence but like....idk #she has this ‘deviation’- essentially evil sentient magic inside her head (and you KNOW I love that trope) #but it’s barely explained and very underutilised? other than helping her get out of bad situations you could take it out & would barely #change anything #also it’s explained at the start that she’s an empath but other than the very occasional mention I kept forgetting #will also note that I bumped this up my tbr because I saw the author talking/promoting it as the MCs sister being aroace but no mention #maybe it’ll come up in a sequel (there weren’t really any places where it would have made sense to bring it up here) but idk #(just the way the author was asking for advice on how to write an ace character and stuff you’d assume that they’d….put that in the book?) #not really a critique of the book itself but anyway. I really wanted to like this but the way it was put together just did not vibe with me #edit: I saw the author say on twitter that the version used for ARCs was before ace stuff was added and that there's other signif changes? #so perhaps that will be there! i'm not sure if I want to read it again but might skim just to see what that's about

Zane and Irene parallel character progressions hit post

#i keep thinking about this #about how Irene's relic was GOING to go to Zane and literally the only thing that stopped it #was irene's literal reincarnation being present #about how zane is in charge of the jury and they carry out his will #they same way they were formed to protect and serve irene #how he hurts his family for the sake of gaining power #like how irene killed her daughter to make a relic #I HAVE THOUGHTS #aphmau feeling so uncomfortable around zane even when hes not revealed to be evil yet #because she just knows deep down inside of her that this man hurts people #and that he will continue to hurt people #and unlike irene #zane cant go to sleep for hundreds of yesrs to avoid the concequences of his actions #zane ro'meave #zane mcd #irene the matron #lady irene #irene mcd #minecraft diaries #mcd

me sprinkling in a little bit of romantic baggage into all my characters with a uniquely transgender flavor. no one is safe

#i'm making pernelle and calisone ex lovers from way back #and his guilt over hurting her is a big reason why he doesn't obey the court's order and kill them as a knight and vassal #also prince mirse (the current partner of callisone and true vassal of the court) doesn't see citinri as a threat #he's certainly more of a strategist politician than how the king sees himself as a divine ruler. he understands that citrini has no #economic power or political leverage and that they own no land. the king's religious and fanatic fears are not shared by his court in i #it's entirety. so his vassals don't necessarily obey him but don't dispose him because he is easy to manipulate and change to the status qu #would inevitably harm the monarchy and the power the lesser princes can use. marse especially understands that but also sees pernelle as a #major potential ally in case things do go sour. the island is inferior technologically and she is one of the few insiders with #scientific and technological expertise that compares to the early modern mainland and other continents #because of calisone and pernelles history calisone also acts a little bit like a father figure to citrini #though a temporary and very very distant one. since both of citirnis grandparents are dead and half estranged. and their cousin is the same #age and also quite distant emotionally and geographically #of course plenty of the vassals do share the same religious and political ideals with the king #or familial ties #those are the ones that pose a real danger to young arrant errant citrinitas

shoutout to grubbs for being my favourite reject the call trope

#i was thinking about him and juni and how they are under such similar circumstances and both turned out so different and yet so similar #like. ok. you have juni who is forced into using her power for good since she was a child. #on earth a hundred years have passed. the world is unrecognisable to her. on her end? shes only 20 and has outlived everyone she knows #ok disclaimer uhm. i dont remember how old she is in demon thief but i THINK shes late teens or early twenties so 20 is her age for now #grubbs on the otherhand possesses his own talents. strong ass magical capabilities for one #he isnt kidnapped like juni. beranabus doesnt force him to be a disciple. but he says that if grubbs doesnt then hes a coward #which yknow after seeing bo run back into the depths of slawter in the hopeless attempt to not abandon her family. yeah fair #juni lets her spite and anger about her role build up inside her until she just. doesnt fucking care anymore and she would do anything to #escape. kill people. kill her friends. #grubbs of course has bad past with lord loss so he doesnt exactly have the same option but to him juni is everything he doesnt want to be #but after wolf island he?? is sort of like her?? i suppose he just starts his Morally Grey arc here. yknow. eating people. #but theres a sense of fuck it. if hes going down then hes the universe with him. #grah this isnt comprehendable #anyway you can tell what one i drew late at night and what one i drew at a reasonable time #i wasnt sure whether to post these because its not work that i care about but honestly at this point the demonata tag is the #'ohh two cakes' thing. the demonata tag is STARVED #demonata #the demonata #grubbs grady #eat up bitches (two people) #grah ALSO #ihave so many thoughts i love tags #grubbs' reject the call is deeply rooted in his trauma #i love the portrayal of his trauma its actually so fucking good #i think about early lord loss grubbs a lot. the kind of grubbs who stayed with random family members and traumadumped to their kids #because idk the interaction of him telling these kids that demons killed his family out of nowhere is such a weirdly human interaction #ok goodnight demonata nation (two people. including me) #wyrm draws

El and Rajiv

If I had to bring this enclave down, if I had to fulfill that much of the prophecy to stop this from happening on my watch—my watch was going to have to end here, too.

....

Because of the future that I spoke over your head, my own grandson Rajiv, Arjun’s father, might have torn you from your mother’s arms that very night. He would have taken you up to the top of the mountain and still holding you in his arms, he would have leapt.

#The Scholomance #El's relationship to her family is so heartbreaking #she spends so much of her life hurting because she thinks she is nothing like Gwen #she is not good like her mother is. #and that belief gets painfully reinforced by racism. #the way people treat her saintly white mother VS how they treat an angry little brown girl #but when she finally comes home to the Sharmas #look! she is JUST like them! #outside and inside #burdened by a terrible power; trying so hard to do the best she can with it; just like Deepthi #and so determined to keep to her ideals #she is ready to throw herself off a mountain for them #just like Rajiv. #WHO IS CRYING ABOUT THE SHARMAS AGAIN. I AM. #SHARMA SPINOFF WHEN!!!

difficult to explain the emotions the stupendium's shine through evokes in me but suffice to say. wough💙

#the stupendium #you've got this power inside and it's frightening #drowned in emotion this ocean you're siphoning #chromatose down in the tide that you're hiding in #no one should be as alone as you try to be #family trees don't need be organic #the branches you graft are as equally valid #so if your party of one's world is pallid #go plant some paladdins packing a palette... #know that you're not alone don't gotta stay in the monochrome #WHENEVER YOUR LIFE IS STRANGE AND #THE PAIN IS TOO MUCH TO GO THROUGH #KNOW THAT YOU CAN FIND YOUR HAVEN #IN THOSE YOU'VE CHOSE TO BE CLOSE TO! #CAUSE WE'LL FIND THE BRIGHTEST COLORS #WHEN WE LOOK INSIDE EACH OTHER! #THIS LIFE IS MORE VIBRANT FOR THE ONES WHO FIND THE LIGHT TO SHINE THROUGH!!!!
