The world isn’t ready for my alpha kid readings.

#jane crocker #jake english #roxy lalonde #dirk strider #homestuck #alpha kids #Jane is the struggler don’t you EVER contest that #many might argue it’s Jake but he doesn’t struggle inherently #usually he just vibes until he’s forced into situations wherein he struggles #Jane struggles from the beginning #her entire arc is a struggle #also had to change it from “the fujoshi” mostly cause I don’t like that and also cause it’s not as versatile as the other labels #I don’t actually think Dirk is boring btw i just think that when put up against his friends he has a lot less complexity going on #like his arc is fairly simple as opposed to Jane and Jake’s #and even Roxy’s #His problems seem inherently a lot more straight forward to me simply because he’s articulate enough to realize he has problems #Jane and Jake are almost there #problems are like on the tip of their tongues #and Roxy is kinda like the John of the team where she isn’t even gonna acknowledge the possibility of problems #girl is like “problems? haha not me #I’m the put together one in this group :)” #and just ignores all her internalized misogyny and heteronormativity #she is a mirror to Vriska in that they both put a lot of emphasis on preforming romanticism as a means of affirming their gender #anyway my alpha kid readings are way too boring so I feel like nobody would really be interested in them Sighhhh

years later someone buys the plot, turns on the lights and is suddenly worshipped as a sun god by a bunch of puppets falling apart at the seams

pov you break into the spooky abandoned Playfellow Studios building for shits and giggles

#lore tidbit! the plot is not available for purchase #the building is only Technically abandoned. its still very much Owned private property! #actually ive been thinking about the Other side of this au. the people's perspective #cause in this au at least they all Knew the puppets were alive #many employees - especially the ones working 'closest' to the puppets - put up a huge fight when the show got canceled #but it was either Disassemble (kill) Them or Lock Them Away #and honestly? killing the neighbors would've been somewhat of a mercy #but the employees had no way of knowing just how Bad things would get #wh lights out au #scribble salad #and i mean. the building's electricity bill remains paid. #the employees that felt really bad kept it paid over the years - devoting a bit of their income each to it #thinking the puppets would a) be awake & b) be able to figure it out #yeah that's actually a lil fun tragic tidbit as well - if any of the puppets had found the breaker.... #or found it and Messed with it a lil... flipped the right switch... #they would've gotten the lights back on no problem #but yeah anyway ive been Thinking about the employees' side of things a lot #might tie that in with act two. it'd make sense considering the shit that happens #well either they'd help the puppets out or they'd get shoved into one of the sinkholes by barnaby. so. #bc if we're talkin seriously here. the puppets are more likely to kill a person than worship them for any reason #they'd go full 'THREAT!! THREAT!! ELIMINATE THE THREAT!!! WE'RE NOT LOSING ANYONE ELSE!!!' mode

Okay hear me out

What if Skybound, but Jay was the one who opened the teapot in the first place, so that he could wish for Nya to be in love with him

#Obviously it doesn’t work because no wishing for love so the rest of the season plays out fairly similarly #But this would mean that him wishing to go back to before the teapot was opened is him realizing how selfish he was #Also that would fix his last wish being two wishes #And #he would then feel like he needed to fight on nadakhan’s ship because he caused this problem in the first place #Like even more than in the original season #I just feel like it would add depth to his character #And begin to fix some issues I have with the season #ninjago jay #jay walker #ninjago #ninjago skybound #ninjago jaya #jaya #ninjago nya #nya smith #Yk I really wanna rewrite Skybound at some point… #Because I love the idea of it but I have so many issues with the season #hmmmm #maybe someday

Oldest Sister Jazz vs. Oldest Sister Dick

what i really want to see is the dead eye recognition moment when jazz 'my brother will not get any deader on my watch' fenton and dick 'i am raising 200 siblings emotionally' grayson meet...

like i want to clock each other as the Older SisterTM and to just understand

i also wonder if they make eacher other more Older SisterTM if they are functioning in the same room or if they decide to just 'fuck it we ball' together and cause more problems then all of their siblings combined

like two feral parent-siblings just loosing all rationality and common sense and deciding to make it the worlds problem

#dp x dc #dcxdp #jazz and dick are older sisters #they are suffering #they need a nap #please help them #all their younger siglings are the worst #how are they so danger prone #both are relived there is someone else #that truely recognise their pain #they bond #and drink but also bond #the younger ones cause problems until they see #the 2 older ones who are supposed to be responsible #snap and cause so many problems #now the baby ghost and birds need to save the world #from their older siblings #who knew this would happen

i forgot how weird people get sometimes when you add minnie to clemvi situations :/

#she is NOT a threat to their relationship. she is barely a blip on the radar #shes literally just here to cause problems #vi makes it ABUNDANTLY CLEAR that clem is her top priority she is so disgustingly painfully in love with clem its embarrassing #like girl i never doubted you for a second dw 😭 #but its like people want to see vi hate minnie.. like they cant grasp that shes moved on without her saying she hates her or smth #all the conflicting feelings are just so narratively juicy :) some people cant appreciate this it seems #and then theyll use it as an excuse to say clemvi sucks like okay everybody pack it up #people projecting their insecurities perhaps? (i know the answer) #and like even a captured vi who was manipulated into trusting minnie ends up getting her eyes burned out for it #like they both went down there but only vi got hurt?? and separated from minnie? hm interesting #clem fighting her own trauma of trusting the wrong people with vi continuously reassuring her nothings changed she loves her #clem would appreciate that. i definitely think shes fighting jealously demons but is just good at pretending she doesnt care #she makes too many Faces about it for me to think shes casual about the whole thing #but i think after their conversation in the dorms in ep3 clem isnt worried anymore. and vi proves she can trust her again and again #THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH theyre disgusting its disgusting :) #minnie isnt a threat to their relationship shes just a threat to their lives :) #twdg #it speaks

I want to discuss more about Grians Bombs. he is going to cause Soooo many Problems for Sooooo many people

what would happen if he puts tiny water ballon bombs in drinks like boba without people knowing is the real question

#that just popped into my head BHASDHAHAHA #he would cause SO MANY PROBLEMS #is.asks

i think we as a society don’t talk enough about leo’s trauma because my man gets his arm and his leg crushed trying to save his family and then proceeds to get teased by his family for not being bionic enough when the whole reason he’s bionic is because he was trying to save them and he got hurt and especially his leg is treated like a joke the whole time, and then he finally finds a new way to combine his and his friends powers and it blinds his friend which hurt him so much that he quit?? he spends all four seasons begging to be bionic but this affected him so much he quits, only coming back because his family is in danger (again)

anyways i love him

THIS IS THE EXACT REASON WHY HIS AND DOUGLAS' FRIENDSHIP WAS SO NEEDED!!! IF THEY TOOK A BIT OF TIME TO LOOK INTO DOUGLAS PAST AND HOW HEAVILY THAT AFFECTED HIS CHARACTER, IT WOULD BE SO EASY TO TELL THAT HE AND LEO WOULD MIRROR EACH OTHER!! DOUGLAS, STREET TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF, WOULD BE AND TO BE THE PERSON FOR LEO THAT HE DESPERATELY NEEDED!!! THIS WOULD ALLOW LEO TO PROPERLY DEVELOP INTO THE BIONIC HERO THAT HE'S ALWAYS WANTED TO BE AND WOULD ALLOW DOUGLAS TO BE MORE THAN JUST COMEDY RELIEF, COMEDY RELIEF (EVIL), AND A SECOND DONALD!!!

#caps tw #answering asks #demon without a red circle #lrmmlref stuff #I've been thinking a lot about these shows again recently and i have been having. Thoughts. #lab rats #lab rats bionic island #lr #lrbi #douglas davenport #leo dooley #i wanted more of their friendship so bad 😭😭😭 #also as much as i love daniel it would have done exactly what daniel was setting out to do #daniel was essentially many to be like 'this was the good in douglas shining through back then #and this is douglas proving that he can still be a good parent and person now' #like #by him willingly taking up the role to mentor and help leo through all of the problems that the others are constantly causing him #as well as work through the self worth issues that he definitely has because of the others #starting all the way back during their banter from when he was still TECHNICALLY working with krane #is a way to do that that is just so much more interesting to watch #and this doesn't necessarily mean he has to replace big d or tasha #it just means that donald and tasha are now more free to do different things for leo and the lab rats that feel less demeaning #to leos existence #I'm sorry I'm rambling XD

i used to talk about this a lot on twitter a few years ago but recently i’ve been thinking again about how little agency victor kain has both within the narrative and as an individual. specifically i think a lot about how his life after nina’s death is one in which he as a person plays very little role, and the fact that his duty as her husband (and as a kain) means that after she’s gone the nature of his family’s beliefs about the preservation of the soul keep him trapped by design in a grief that is necessarily all-consuming. if he wants to keep nina’s soul alive he can never progress beyond even the first stage of grief: every moment has to be dedicated to her and her memory; he has to be constantly reminded of her and the fact that she is dead. for him to move on would be for him to essentially kill her, so he can never even attempt to recover from her loss. his life has to revolve around the space where she was. in that way i see him as kind of a living shrine, a memorial whilst he’s alive and a vessel when he’s dead. his path is called the mistress! his entire life is explicitly devoted to someone who will take his body and return to life when he sacrifices himself for her! he’s working towards a utopia like the rest of his family, but who is it for? he lost his son in the pursuit of this thing which he will never get to see, and which seemingly never had a place for him at all. the kains’ utopia doesn’t even extend to their own.

all of this pains me particularly acutely because of how clear it is that victor does have interests and desires of his own, despite his implications that he is nothing more than a mouthpiece for his family. if you believe andrey, he doesn’t even want to be here: he wants to go back to the capital to finish his degree. i often see people talk about the kains as if they are one undifferentiated entity, but a lot of the quests ‘the kains’ give you are from victor, and i would argue that in most of those he is acting as an individual rather than necessarily a kain. he wants daniil to free the wrongfully imprisoned people; he acts against his family’s interests in rewarding clara for telling him about rubin. his letter to daniil on day 9 causes me agony for many reasons but in this context specifically because it doesn’t seem like he wants to die. georgiy appears pretty unfazed about being possessed by simon (although it’s georgiy so who knows) but victor, who has two children and has been one of the town’s rulers for presumably several decades, is telling a man he met just over a week ago that he is the only one to whom he can pass on anything meaningful. you could argue that he is just manipulating daniil here to persuade him to take up the kains’ cause, but i am of the opinion that he is being genuine in this case. he doesn’t want to die. he wants his family back again, but the only way they can be reunited is with his death. he wants to finish his degree. i am putting my head through walls

#pathologic #victor kain #ghost post #i havent put anything new in my posts tag in Uh Many months but ive been going insane in the brain about victor again recently so here i am #he causes me agony and pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! augh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #he is just so sad. the more you think about him as a character the worse it gets. he has to be depressed forever or his wife will die (2) #the kains are just so messed up as a family. they have so many problems. they are so cruel to themselves #i didnt even talk about how his children dont seem to care for him either. georgiy certainly doesnt seem to. hes isolated by design #i dont think i expressed myself very well here but i had to say something or my head would explode and come off #i do talk about this very often on my private twitter but i want to share my suffering and anguish with the world #holds out my hand. suffer about victor kain with me

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

if you do kill wally its gonna ruin me.

the poor man has lived and survived and suffered for so long. desperate to save his friends.

and it just gets cut from under him.

especially if he doesnt die alone.

... *nervously kicks plot document under the rug*

#ok no fr tho im... on the fence about it rn #after arc one wally's place in it all is. tenuous. #like i mentioned im reworking a Lot of it #so ill admit! i was going to toss wally into the (metaphorical) shredder with frank! #but now that ive Considered Some Things... he's standing on the edge of the (still metaphorical) shredder #as i decide on whether or not to push him in #wh lights out au #rambles from the bog #cause i realized that wally... might not want them all to 'escape' #he doesnt want to leave the neighborhood. its their home. he can fix things cant he? #and that adds sooooo many new problems that i have to take into consideration #and really... would he ever abandon Home? if the studio became uninhabitable. would wally leave or would he stay behind? #questions questions! wally is on Very thin ice! #either way its a bad time for him. im sorry to say but its a lose-lose situation

At the bus stop one time there was a gaggle of preschoolers waiting to catch the bus for a field trip day, and someone walked past with a couple of friendly little dogs, to great general delight.

But after a little bit, the dogs were getting overwhelmed, and the preschoolers were gently coaxed to back off so the person with the dogs could continue on. Specifically, one of the preschool teachers said, "Sometimes, when you're small, being surrounded by big people can be a bit scary and overwhelming. Even if they are friendly."

This was recieved as great wisdom: after all, the preschoolers were also small, and understood how scary and overwhelming big people could be! And the dogs were indeed even smaller than the preschoolers, so it made sense.

What was funny and charming was that, upon absorbing and reflecting on this wisdom, they all felt the need to tell it to one another. In tones of great insight, they turned to one another and said, "Did you know? Sometimes when you are small, being surrounded by big people can be scary and overwhelming! Even if they are friendly!" Back and forth, without any particular concern that they were all saying the same thing. Have reached comprehension of an insight, it must be shared!

I must say that this behavior is less charming in tumblr users than in preschoolers. Not least because tumblr users, having gained a little analytical skill to misuse, insist on Summarizing and Generalizing and Unifying the insights they repeat, quickly turning any interesting new information into formulaic dogmatic mush.

#i made the mistake of looking in the notes of the beach sand post i reblogged to see if anyone else had interesting comments #And the rate at which it went from like #1) person states with moderate confidence an opinion based on their personal observations #2) multiple people reply with “wow thats so insightful!” (aka it aligns with my preconceived notions of how things work) #3) someone else adds additional personal observations which are not really relevant but which can be absorbed into the narrative #4) people start outright stating the underlying belief on which this bias is constructed as if it were a fresh insight #5) general derisive attitude towards people who haven't seen the Obviously Correct solution to this complex real world problem yet #It's very....... #It's not like it's a high stakes post but it's such a microcosm of the whole dogmatic phenomenon #Also this js a more specific gripe to My Field or w/e #But the degree to which people react to the problems caused by the whole “Control of Nature” era of engineering #with this equally reductive “Nature will Fix Everything” type of attitude #Is sooooo frustrating. #Yes a great many of our current problems could have been avoided if we had not made massive changes to ecosystem processes on the assumptio #That they were simple and we understood them. And that they would respond in predictable ways. #the simplicity in retrospect of “wow we Should Not have done that” does not mean that they are simple to undo! #You can't go back in time. You can't turn back the clock on chaotic processes #Which is. Almost every process ever. #Restoration is hard! Returning to previous regimes of sediment or flooding or fire is tricky and full of foibles! #Moving towards a future which doesn't suck as much even if the past cant be recreated is also uncertain and difficult! #It's frustrating to see people act all high and mighty about how they Respect Nature unlike whoever is making all these decisions #When their understanding of the natural processes in question is AS simplistic as the people who caused the whole mess back in 1910 or w/e #Like I'm not saying there's not bad interests standing in the way of functional restoration on all levels #That's very much a fight to be fought. #But looking at that fight-in-process and saying “wow none of you Respect Nature like me uwu let nature fix it” #Is. #Ugh.

Feeling like there's some untapped potential in a gem that's so brittle and tender they're only bound to live for a few hundred years because the erosion is getting to them fast..... knowing you're only there for a second when everyone else's lifespan is eternity... but being shielded so you can get a chance to live like them nonetheless.... even though you can feel time getting to you more and more and being aware that things can only get worse.... ough

#i mean theres many factors that could cause continuous external damage right? they live near the sea so i imagine the salt and the wind and #the humidity would probably be an issue #iirc thats part of why they use resin to protect themselves but realistically? it couldnt 100% solve the problem i think? #applying resin *everywhere* would restrict their movements so assuming they dont apply it on their articulations... I guess a really #brittle gem would start crumbling under the friction of their own movements or something maybe. much to feel about #personal

okay but what if one of the zodiacs Left. what if they packed their bags in the dead of night and ran away, not letting anyone know where they went. what if Yuki escaped Sohma grounds? what if Kazuma took Kyo and bolted? what if Rin or Kureno decided they'd had enough and got the hell out of dodge? i know the bond supposedly keeps them under Akito's thumb and Akito would never let them leave, but what if they tried? what if a near-death experience scared them enough to finally escape. what if they got sick of their life with the Sohmas or were afraid of Akito's wrath and decided to run for the exit while they were desperate enough to try. what if the zodiacs just. left.

#sorry thinking about au ideas again #i know full well that there are psychological abuse-related reasons that none of the zodiacs tried to leave #or zodiac-adjacent sohmas like kazuma #but i keep thinking about the abuse they suffered and how akito literally conditioned them to feel unable to leave #and i'm like - but what if they *did* leave? #what then? what would they do? what would the sohma family do? #it would cause so many problems and i for one would love to see it #fruits basket #sage speaketh #au tag
