Norman's Reason of Murder, Analysis
(Inclued Ray and Emma too but mainly Norman)
Norman decides he must kill the demons because it's the only way his family can survive when there's truly no Neverland to escape to. Those who insult hard on Norman for murder overlook this: Norman was dying, and before he died, he wanted to leave a world to live in for the people he valued most in life and for whom he had worked for years. He thought he had no other choice, he would bear the price of this murder, he should bear this burden. All of these come from the responsibility and sense of justice he has felt since childhood. Just like Ray decides he can take the burden of killing people when Minerva's first shelter is found. "I am ready to carry this burden."
Because Ray has been carrying the burden of the truth for years. Emma was also ready to take on the burden of every child she encountered and the responsibility of her life. Even if Emma's failure meant the children would die, Emma did not consider failing. The burden Norman is trying to carry is the same as Emma and Ray, but unlike the two of them, Norman sees himself as deformed after Lambda. He thinks that no matter what he does, they will not accept him as his old, true self, but Ray was thinking almost the same. (Did i mention i love norray). Ray believed that he had no place with his family and that he had to die at the end of the 6-year plan because Ray think their family doesn't show him understood because Ray watched their siblings die for years and they might thought Ray's humanity was destroyed. But there wasn't a rule for humanity in that world. Ray had Emma by his side to shake him, but Norman didn't have Emma at first. I want to hug Emma, she needs to shake me too. Emma, on the other hand, could push herself up, her psychological endurance at a level I could never have imagined.
Back at Norman, he was deathly afraid of ever hoping again, believing that his plans and dreams were destroyed forever so he afraid to trust Emma and Ray about Mujika, afraid to believe there was another world. He think, he dissapointed hard after this and all of his family die. Norman wasn't bad, Isabella wasn't bad, they never were. Because when all the information you have about the outside world is likely to be fake, when you have spent years surrounded by lies and the truth is hitting you like a slap in the face, you cannot learn to do something that society deems evil because you aren't learn "act evil for gain" If one sheep bites another while running through the meadows, will we call it bad? It's not the same as a murder in the world we live.
In this panel Norman says : I hope in your next life, you enjoy life like a human.
They never carried like humans.
Norman get away too, too much suffering and try to create a world humans can live. Norman is right
Also
They feel peace in this panel because they were accepted, they were each other and they feel incalculable trust for each other

Some TGMD Next Gen Doodles featuring the fanchildren mostly(? Along with some ideas of their future professions
- Minerva: I am still debating on what her profession will be, but surely she would help her dad and Dawson with some of their investigations
- Lorcan: Psychologist, or at least something related to science. Not based on anything in particular despite the fact that rats were quite used in studies of psychology and since all the kids would be adults around the 10s-20s...
- Felicity: Opera Singer (in reference to Mademoiselle Relda's role in the Basil of Baker Street Books)
- James: General or Colonel (based on Captain Doran from the books, THOUGH I have created my own version of Doran that I have to finish writing about)
- Odette: Ballerina or ballet dancer, based on the Ballerina doll that Hiram gave to Olivia at the start of the movie
- William: Radio host (+ his ex secretary/rival that I made after being obsessed with "Stayed Gone" from Hazbin Hotel), mainly based on King Dice and Alastor
ALSO a huge shoutout to @niassillystuffofficial for helping me with some of the designs and ideas for these! 💖

James Ratri Headcanons👑
(because he got like 2 fans out in this world and I’m the hugest)
he was born November 3rd 2001
due to him accompanying his father from a young age to charity events and public appearances in the name of his family, he did meet Smee as a young boy in an orphanage the Ratri had funded (yes, the normal kind of orphanage, this time)
James and Smee had a fun afternoon playing around and chatting about the book they surprisingly both did read at that time: Peter Pan
the two boys couldn’t stop giggling when realizing they shared the names of the villain, Captain James Hook, and his underling, Smee
due to their different upbringings, they wouldn’t meet each other for years, but occasionally, James would remember the nice orphan boy with glasses who was named like a pirate and wonder what did become of him
they would see each other decades later in university, where James was studying Politics at this time and Smee just got a scholarship for his studies in Biology and Medicine
James is the most chaotic and messy person you can imagine. You could let him sit for ten minutes in a completely empty room and when he leaves, you would have to tidy for hours nonetheless
self-righteous, a way too firm moral backbone, a pain in the ass if he wants to - that’s how family and close insider would characterize James in secret
at the same time they would tell you James is the most generous, peace seeking and pleasant guy to be around
James was a rather lonely child without any friends due to his family’s function of being the Gatekeepers of two worlds. Most time he was surrounded by adults like bodyguards, private teachers or politicians his father had to interact with on a weekly basis
when his parents had their second child, James gave them the idea to name the boy Peter, due to Peter Pan still being his favourite book despite being already a teenager at the time Peter was born
fearing Peter would grow up lonely too, James tried to spend as much time as possible with his younger brother. Their father was occupied with work and their mother rather distant, but James was always there for him whenever Peter would be in need of someone to be with him
their parents died when James hadn’t reached the legal age yet, but became head of the Ratri clan nevertheless. Different branches tried to take his position in secret or influence the still grieving young man in their favour, but James did stay adamant in his ways of leading the family. Only to Peter he could show weak he really did feel and that he missed their parents as well as their advice more than he could have had ever imagine before
a lot of women (and men too) did try to woe him, but James never really showed any interest in romance or having an heir of his own one day; it’s not like he doesn’t like children or want to have them in the future, but the mere act of creating them gives him the hives 🧡💛🤍💙
when all his supporters in liberating the cattle children warned him of Peter’s betrayal, James wouldn’t believe it till it was literally too late. No bullet in the back or water flooding his lungs could have hurt as much as realizing his dear little brother would want to sabotage him
despite being the first born and successor of his father, James was often called „the silver prince“ among his family, due to his silvery hair and clothing style, while Peter was „the golden prince“, because of his hair being more golden and silky
