#they’re both arrogant insecure assholes who think very highly of themselves and are quick to frustration

[justanotherfanartist]

i got the kind of autism where I make theme songs and leitmotifs for my characters that I haven’t written anything about but have a complete fuzzy image of in my head

#online synthesizer my beloved #I have a couple for characters and I’m trying to figure out these two brothers rn (Campbell and Carnegie) #(their names are because I thought they sounded cool but weird enough to be considered stupid by other characters and in the vein #of rvb style humor they get bullied for this. Campbell especially cus he’s the younger brother with a cooler older brother) #so now I’m working on a theme that’s kind of supposed to be them coming together and working really well as a team or pair #but they still have their own little leitmotif moments that are somewhat combative or jarring with eachother to show #that while they work very harmoniously together in song and via characters #they’re still very different people and there is still tension between them #cus they’re both kinda showboaty and dicks about it but it just presents in different ways #so Campbell is reprimanded for it and gets pushback socially where Carnegie is rewarded for it #just because the behavior manifests differently #god I have sooo many thoughts about the Bennett twins (technically not twins I just call them that) you have no idea (my guys) #they’re kind of inspired by the potential in the relationship that north and south could have had #with north being the good one and south being the bad one #while they both have problems #in the Bennetts case it’s the same problem #it’s just rewarded by militaristic higher ups very differently based on skill #so yes #they’re both arrogant insecure assholes who think very highly of themselves and are quick to frustration #and are often very sensitive to outside opinions and words rather than literal meaning or action #but Campbell turns softer and much more emotionally volatile form how he gets socially rebuffed for it especially because he’s not #a great soldier #and his perfect older brother Carnegie gets all the privilege and trust because he’s seen as ruthless and ambitious and skilled when #hes just as if not visibly more petty than Campbell is #god they run circles in my head at night
