Hello Mr Bossman! (and possibly anyone else who reads this)

Its an honour to be here, I have a few questions. First i appologise for the long paragraph, you may dismiss it for the questions at the bottom. For context, i am here after finishing TMA and being up to date with TMAP, i then went over and listened to RQG, and have just finished listening to Epilogue 3 and might i just say, good sir I am grateful for your podcasts. I am currently just a few months away from my final exams of High School, and as someone who even just 1 year ago was very lost, struggling with school and being just overwhelmed. TMA isnt exactly comforting, but the characters and plot managed to serve as a good form of escapism while sorting myself out. I found my self engaging more in creative things that i had originally put aside in favour of maths and science (which i hated but thought i needed to do). I started drawing again, even if just fanart. and i found things going well. By finding podcasts, story telling and these communities have helped me in my own understanding of what i want in life. I got an ADHD diagnosis earlier this year, and almost directly after started RQG and as my first hyperfixation (that i was aware of as an hyperfixation) gosh dang it hit hard. (in a good way). Ive been able to do so much more creative writing and drawings, and got re-involved with a small dnd group with some friends who i played one game with almost 4 years ago now. So overall, inspirational sounds cringe, but it was. Im doing my best with the upcoming exams, but trying to get in to Medicine is not my only prority, and the fact ive been re-introduced to my first love (Literature and story telling), im planning to go do an Arts degree and i know i wouldnt have been able to confidently make this decision, or even have survived this long in the school system without the work you and your coworkers do. Now the sap is out of the way, Question time! (if you could answer even just one of these questions it would be so cool)(they go in order of RQ relevant to random stuff)(dont feel pressured to answer all/any. i know i wrote alot): 1. what would you say is the best way to draft out a long-form story. (with "Erasing the Line" as an example) Did you start at the end, with the links to the overarching plot.

2. When working with the players (in a form of TTRPG), what did you do to make sure you didnt miss relevant timing of plot points/ avoid creating spoilers while still giving enough detail?

3. What are good places to start with making a job out of storytelling/voice acting/audio etc. In the case of RQ, how is this a job and where do i sign up please! /j (what i mean is, how is best way/how did you find all the people involved and was there a common path that you were all on before getting to where you are now?) 4. Do you have recommendations for Terry Pratchett Books, i may be an literary-leaning student, but it seems i have never actually properly read any of his books. so where is best place to start?/What did you read first?

5. Similar authors or similar inspirations? Did you have a favourite podcast you listen to in your free time that you havnt had a hand in producing/directing/working on. 6. Favourite song/album/artist. And more specifically, what you like listening to in background when doing either writing or (for ttrpg) character research/game planing. 7. Since the olympics are on at the moment, what has been your favourite sport to watch, if you have been watching at all. Thank you for your time :)

Thankyou for all the kind words. Knowing our work is helping people really keeps our engines fired up. Let's see if I can't answer your questions: 1. I "sandbox" which is where I just shove everything I can think of into an unorganised bullet point list. Characters, setting, plot, all of it in one big mess. Then I decide what type of story you want to tell, copy and paste to a new document and then start to organise the thoughts (with the sandbox on standby if new stuff comes in I don't know what to do with). I think of it like scultping, you cut away bits and reshape until something comes out the other end that is story shaped. Only then do I attempt to build the sandcastle and put something coherant together like a synopsis or scratch draft etc.

2. Very tricky. I did a complete review and update of all notes after each recording session and don't forget the audio eas edited. I made lots of gaffs that you never heard as audience.

3. I contacted anyone I could convince to take part and just proved I was serious by overworking. I don't reccomend that route. Unfortunately it really is "who" you know. That doesn't mean chase established professionals as much as it means you need to get out there and associate with other up-and-comers who match your vibe. For me the route was long and windy and not a particularly good example. 4. I normally recommend people do not read his books in publication order. Don't get me wrong, its wonderful watching his craft grow from one title to the next but I would recommend new readers tip their toe into his later works to see if they like where he ended up before committing the time. I often recommend 'Monstrous Regiment' as people's first one. My favourite though is 'Thief of Time.'

5. I don't get much time to listen to podcasts in the last couple of years. I used to listen to a lot of non fiction. 'Stuff you Should Know' and that ilk. I also read a fair amount of classic YA fiction to unwind (Windinsger trilogy, Bartimeous, stuff like that.) 6. Paul Simon's Graceland but when working I assemble a playlist for each seperate project that is tonally appropriate. If I really need to focus I listen to Classical Minimalism. Or the Old School Runescape soundtrack. I'm allowed to be ecclectic. 7. I am actually in an incredibly busy work crunch at the moment so haven't seen any of it!

[wanderingmind867]

Hiii it's ask wave time~ who are ten of your favorite characters? Don't worry it doesn't have to be ranked in order, and it doesn't even have to be ten if you don't want! Just who stands out to you? If I’ve sent this already, my bad 😭

You may have sent it before, but my memory is not great (when you have 17,000+ posts, it becomes incredibly hard to find old ones). Anyways, ten of my favourite characters? Glad you didn't say top ten. I could never do top ten. But I can try to pick out ten random ones. I might end up going overboard and doing 10-15, though. I may also end up mostly pulling from Comic Book media and Rick Riordan books for now, but I know your blog is mostly about Bob's Burgers, so I'm gonna throw in two of those characters too. I like Bob's Burgers myself too, but I just haven't watched it as much lately (and haven't posted about it due to other hyperfixations, anyways).

Martian Manhunter: He's just always appealed to me, ever since I was a little kid. Something about this incredibly lonely superhero, the last of his kind...it really hits me in the heart. I relate to it.

Two-Face: Two-Face was the first supervillian i loved. I think my parents used to tell me I raced about him as a kid after seeing a rerun of his 90s TV Show episode. I don't think I could say his name right, though. This story can't be fact-checked, because my dad currently isn't at home (and I don't know how I talked way back when i was 4-5).

Mister Freeze: I've always liked Mister Freeze, but I like him even more than usual now. His grief over losing his wife, and his obsession with curing her...god, that's relatable. I lost my mom in 2022, and it still affects me. Not always in ways you'd expect, but it definitely still affects me. So I understand Freeze's pain and heartache. I really feel for him.

Cyclops: Cyclops wasn't my favourite X-Man as a kid, but he's definitely my favourite now. I see so much of myself in him. He's intensely relatable. Lonely, awkward socially, obsession with routine and with order, Cyclops is like the most relatable character you could give me. I love him.

Doctor Octopus: Doctor Octopus was my favourite Spiderman villian as a kid. I always read into him as being very relatable. This timid scientist who just goes along with whatever his boss tells him to do (largely because he's too scared to be assertive and take charge of operations), he eventually snaps and becomes a genius supervillian. I feel like that can be said to reflect my anger issues (which I hide whenever i'm in public, too). So he was really relatable.

The Hulk/Bruce Banner: Similar to the Doctor Octopus explanation above, The Hulk appeals to my sense of dual natures. My anger issues, depressive episodes, my negative emotions generally all end up repressed unless i'm alone or around my dad. So a character who pretty much has two split personalities (both of which embody my public vs my private persona), it almost feels like it's designed to be relatable.

Electro: i almost chose Mysterio (since I love his theatricality and sense of style with his crimes), but I feel like Electro popped into my head slightly easier. I still vividly remember the Electro episode of The Spectacular Spider-Man, despite not seeing it in years. A man who's now trapped in a body made of pure electricity, electro can't touch people, eat or drink things, he can't do anything a normal human being would do. And so he snaps, broken by his transformation. That type of story is so sad that I still remember it. I love Electro. His old comics aren't as good as that episode of the TV show, but I still love him.

Nico di Angelo: Nico di Angelo is a character I've loved since I first read the Percy Jackson series (whenever that actually first was). A lonely outcast, never accepted by anyone else, who closes himself off from the world after losing family and beginning to feel unaccepted. He really, really speaks to my soul.

Frank Zhang: Besides just being from Canada (like I am) and having self-confidence issues (also like me), he really is just a character I find fun and relatable. Not too much else I can say here, but I do relate to him.

Jason Grace: Jason Grace is a character who I love so much. He's a genuinely good and selfless person, a really great guy. His rigid sense of order (due to growing up at the roman camp) really appeals to me, too. I like order and some sense of rules. I go to bed at around the same time every night, I eat at similar times every day, I just like order. Chaos is stressful. We're getting off topic, but yeah. I love Jason Grace, and his death really got to me. I couldn't read the riordan books after that, because i missed him too much.

Teddy (Bob's Burgers): Probably the most relatable major character on Bob's Burgers, this man plagued by neuroses and issues really reminds me of myself. I'm only 20 (and he's like 50 or something), but I still really feel like I'll end up like him one day. Few friends, a therapist, awkward and lonely, etc. The only major difference between us is that I hate hands on work (like the stuff he does as a handyman).

Aunt Gayle (Bob's Burgers): The other big-ish character on Bob's Burgers who I relate to. Really, that show knows how to make me like and relate to characters. Just give them an infinite number of neuroses and mental issues, and you're gonna end up with a character who I feel speaks to my soul. A lonely woman who's got no friends besides her extended family, a lady who lives alone (besides her many cats) and who's incredibly sensitive to criticism... she's very, very similar to me. Very similar. Well, except for my strong allergies to cats.

Thank you for the ask, by the way. I now realize I could probably make an infinite number of lists like these, if given time. It'd become exhausting to do all the time, but I do like so many characters. I've dabbled in so many fandoms over 20 years, I could make a list at least 50 characters wide, if i had to. I just think i'd slowly begin to feel tired and agitated as I wrote it. But still, you give me this prompt again one day, tell me to try and pick new people, and we'd probably be able to get something out of it. Idk, that's just a random thought i've had.

AITA in a falling out I had with a friend?

This is kinda heavy but has been weighing on me for years. Story happened a couple years ago but still has some effects on my friend group rn. Everyone here is early teens btw

I used to have 3 good friends, M, S, and J (all f). Out of all of them, I had known M the longest (around 2-3 yrs before this, i think), and became friends with J and S since we all shared a PE period. Also, I feel like it’s worth noting that J came up to M and I, and wanted to be friends first, not the other way around despite other events that may happen.

At first, the four of us got along fine, but problems soon started to arise after a month or so. I have self-diagnosed ADHD and anxiety (parents won’t take me to get tested), and tend to hyperfixate on a lot of different fandoms, but had almost nobody to talk to, and in my mind M was safe enough that I would be able to talk about fandom stuff with her. J didn’t like this, and used to punch me every time I talked about something that “pissed her off”-which was like literally everything I talked about- and would start talking about her fandom to all of us. With no warning. 

It got to the point that I would come home with bruises on my arms from how hard J hit me (J does taekwondo, she hit me hard several times a day), and one time she pushed me into the grass when she knew I’m allergic.

Other things I would do that reportedly “pissed her off” include:

Shipping my friends together, which sometimes included her, and not even seriously. Like in a “I think A and B would be cute together” sort of way. Also worth noting J participated in shipping her friends together as well, which included me a lot of the time, but I just tried to brush it off. (I no longer participate in this behavior. It was just a thing that was normalized at my school and I didn’t think it was wrong to do so until I thought about it and realized it was really gross to do that after this school year I am describing)

Making and sending memes about things that happen at school in a group chat the 4 of us had, most of which she liked and a select few that would cause her to punch me again the next day

Drawing. Like no joke she would insult my art, saying things like “your drawings are shit” and “I could do better”, and punch me, just because my style is more cartoony and than hers and less anime-like

One time I compared her to a character from my fandom that I really liked because his character arc really resonated with me (still does today tbh) and she came up the next day, punched me, and said “I’m nothing like that character bc I’m a girl and he’s a guy”

And apparently my reactions when she insulted the fandom I liked was funny

Eventually I got fed up with it, and so did M and S, and we’d go like a couple days of not hanging out with J and going back and back and forth. During this time, S or M (I can’t remember who) mentioned we could do something to “get back at J.” I didn’t really think much of it until S came back one day with a script she came up with one day to make J jealous of S by making her think S stole her crush (J didn’t have a crush. The guy S chose was literally a random guy in our PE that we talked to sometimes.) M was completely on board with this plan while I still didn’t really take it seriously. Somehow, J found out about this thing S and M were planning, saw that they put my name there (I did not help in the formulation of this plan at all, it was just S and M), and put all the blame on me. J then stopped talking to us for the most part, but we still texted online in our aforementioned group chat. Then summer rolled around and M moved away to a different city.

A couple weeks before the new school year started, we were all texting and I was kind of freaking out that I couldn’t access the website to check my new schedule. J sent me a screenshot of her website glitching out but my WiFi was terrible that day and nothing on my phone was loading, including the image J sent me. The rest of the interaction is copy pasted except for name changes:

Me: Even your pic is giving me errors J

J: (eyeroll emoji) do I look like I care?

Me: Who asked you?

J: ur mom

J: Tbh I wish it was you that moved away and not M -.-

M: that’s so mean-

M: I wish it was u who moved away and not me

M: then I could still hang out with (anon) and not u

J: (unamused emoji) I don’t get along with (anon) at all, I can get along with u

M: then u should have moved away

The rest of the convo was M and J fighting, with M saying J literally abused me and made it look like she was the victim, and J saying if we didn’t ship her so much, she’d be nicer to us, and saying we started it (we actually didn’t, J came up to us first, started punching me before I shipped her, and even then I feel this point is irrelevant because I can’t see jokingly shipping someone compared to possibly physical abuse)

I cut J out entirely after this, but still remain friends with S and don’t talk to M as much on account of her moving away. Some of my friends outside of S are friends with J, and they know I’m not on good terms with her but still talk to her anyway. However, I feel like I might be TA because my friends apologize to me every time I see them talking with J, no matter how much I urge them that it’s fine, they can have their own friends, etc. I also am not proud of the way I handled my friendship with J, particularly when it came to the shipping thing and near the end when I started getting fed up with her, but at that point I was legit scared for my own health and safety (I still am around her sometimes).

So Tumblr, AITA?

[magpod-confessions]

Every two months or so I get a new hyperfixation it's very predictable very intense and then it just goes away!! But this is the first time I've wanted to name myself after the characters from that media. So IDK if I actually wanna be named Jonathan or Martin, or if I'm just so extremely obsessed with it that I think I do. Because naming yourself after a fictional character is 'cringe' I guess. Although I don't really care about being cringe I made a bet with my friend to get her to listen to this podcast and I won so jokes on her she gets to get hit unexpectedly hard by a random episode

,

[might-as-well-tumble]

The cast of The Pitt and the Fear Entities that haunt them

Since my hyperfixations can't help but smash into each other I've decided to put the cast of a random hospital in Pittsburgh into The Magnus Archives/Protocol. If you don't listen to that podcast this is about to get real confusing under the cut:

Michael Robinavitch- Feels an intense moral responsibility for everyone in that hospital, but would rather die than display any emotional vulnerability towards any of them. The Lonely

Heather Collins: Only slightly better at putting herself out there than Robby, but shutting herself out is still a problem. Also The Lonely

Frank Langdon: A UQuiz that told him he's part of The Hunt because of his glory seeking adrenaline junkie ways. HOWEVER, ever since his back made That Noise when he picked up a too heavy box there's been a whisper in his ear that got louder every day: "Your career is over" that carried on from the day he got prescribed pain meds for it to the first time he decided to steal more for himself to the day his mentor asked him to open his locker. The Desolation

Dana Evans: Constantly threatens to quit but for some reason she can't leave that dumb little desk overseeing who does what the Pitt, because there's nowhere else she should be. The Web

Samira Mohan: Wants to make a lasting connection with everyone who comes through those doors, is terrible at making connections with everyone else. The Lonely (Also she's got too much of her work parents in her)

Cassie McKay: A profoundly good person with a rot on the inside that manifests as an ankle monitor. She'll never be fully free of it, but she's been managing it just fine for nine whole years now. The Corruption

Melissa King: She's spent her whole life feeling like everyone speaks a different language than her, while also being the primary carer to a sister who is just a bit worse at navigating that reality than her. The Spiral

Trinity Santos: A Uquiz told her she's part of The Hunt because of her glory seeking and adrenaline junkie ways. Unfortunately she was a dedicated athlete and a CSA victim, so every nightmare she'll ever have ties back to The Flesh

Dennis Whitaker: Losing his first patient hit him especially hard in ways that I'm sure has more under the surface, and he's got "Religious trauma" stapled on his forehead so I'm gonna give him The End

Victoria Javadi: "No but seriously, don't" Every second of her life up until Mateo offered her that beer has involved her mother standing over her shoulder judgmentally. Ceaseless Watcher leave this precious baby alone The Eye

Jack Abbot: Like 95% of his character is "PTSD from The War" so of course he's The Slaughter. And yet The Dark has started whispering to him for whatever reasons that make sense to it.

Honestly I feel like I don't know the rest of the cast well enough so here's a bonus round:

-Perlah and Princess are Eye avatars

-Myrna is a Slaughter avatar and that's why she's so nice to Abbot in particular

-Doug Driscoll has been touched by The Corruption and that's why his fear that something has broken in his heart drives him to madness

Global Masterlist / Fic status

As I have made multiple posts about different fics that haven't yet been updated I'll modify this post here each time a new chapter is posted along with the designated masterlist

To add context for low / no update - I have yet to finish my studies for another few years, the motivation to write and time is so random that even if I want sometimes I just cant write - I can also only write while hyperfixating on the character if not, i just can't - I stare at my screen like if the thing is going to write itself because hyperfixating is the only way for me to develop the plot T-T

These are all X female!READER except for one that will be tagged (superbat) - some may be considered OC for some of their traits but I can't write them being just a random woman so if by giving them some specific traits / a detailed backstory you consider it OC well can't do anything about it

Some also depict really random and selfish morals - we are dealing with some *questionable men* here do not always expect readers that just take the plot to the face without trying to fight it

whether it works or not is for my sadistic side to decides MUAHHAHAHH

All are written in second person only - the POV isn't Reader exclusive and the narrator is mostly reliable!

if you want to know some of the plots just ask dw I am just too lazy to add it rn

Hazbin Hotel - Alastor

Status - Hiatus - Started the first chapter then forgot where I wanted to go - this character is i think so hard for me to write without destroying his personality and I don't know if I'll ever write it in the end - my view of him would make the x reader kinda wrong but right ? As someone also identifying on the ace/aro spectrum idk maybe it hits too close to home and my view of him makes it hard to write him like that

Sorry I know this is going around a lot rn but anyone who wants to say ANYTHING about bad parenting on this show and wants to talk about Eddie mf Diaz can eat a fucking dick UNLESS they can show me they’re not being hypocritical and can show me their posts that rip Athena apart. Fucking hell.

I will preface this by acknowledging that ofc there’s absolutely no way I can know what it’s like to be a black woman raising a black child. I never can. I do have some personal experience with raising a black boy in the US, though, so the episodes with Harry have always hit me really really hard, and usually because I always want to mcfucking scream at Athena for the way she allows her career indoctrination to harm her children.

Yeah my main gripe with this show always always boils down to “Athena quit your job” bc I can’t stand her anymore tbh. She would have stayed an interesting character IF at some point in s4-5 thereabouts she started to have doubts about the system and they did something interesting with that

OR

If they would allow the literal actual conflicts of interest to crop up and let her be a fucking antagonist. Let Bobby struggle with his ethical evaluation of a scene and his marital obligations. Let May struggle with learning and growing away from her childhood home and wrestle with what her mom continues to do. And let that storyline with Harry this season actually carry the fucking heavy and heinous weight that it truly has. It turns my stomach honestly like I had to stand up and walk away, and let me sister tell me when it was over so I could go sit back down.

But the apologism is what is so unforgivable. Like don’t get me wrong, I love the hell out of this show and it’s my full on hyperfixation and has been for years, but its top billed character has been nigh unwatchable for most of the last few seasons. The narrative trying to sell me that she’s one of the protagonists, that she doesn’t have to struggle meaningfully at all about what she does for a living or to her family, and I’m supposed to swallow that without protest? Nah. Can’t happen.

I liked her character a lot in the first three seasons tbh against my better judgment! I was expecting to hate her from day one but I was sold, actually. Michael leaving the show kind of tanked her character, I think, maybe. I think it was their dynamic that made her interesting at first, and then sympathetic later on when she really was trying to make their blended unconventional family work despite her upbringing. But honestly once Harry aged into teenagerdom and Michael left and May graduated it meant there was like…nothing left about Athena that was interesting except her job except that’s actually the worst part about her lmao woopsies.

Anyways. Let Athena be a villain or at least an antagonist. That would fix everything tbh. It would make her interesting again, it would be in character given how many ethical messes she’s caused or been party to, and would allow the show to keep doing their dumb copaganda shit that they’re almost certainly contractually obligated to shove in at least once per season. But it would finally be interesting because it wouldn’t feel like I was being asked to swallow bullshit covered in glitter spray. Maybe they could explore her toxic relationship with her mother and how engaging so heavily and perpetually with respectability politics has done damage to herself (and her parents and her ex husband and her children) over the years. Maybe her magical fairytale white lady boss at the precinct can actually act in character for once and pls god I would just like. I would sell a kidney for a real and honest Athena Quit Your Job plotline. Fuck. They could even take the coward’s way out like they did with Eddie’s military service and just have her quit for some random reason so ethics never actually has to be part of the conversation but neither would we have to deal with the copaganda all the time. You know Angela Bassett would act the fuck out of that kind of complicated character. It would be a real conflict instead of whatever contrived nonsense they’ve been putting on her this season.

Anyways this really fucking got away from me but I’m just not willing to hear a fucking WORD against single dad Eddie fucking Diaz unless the speaker has already done their bit about Athena and they’re just making their way through the line.

Except

I don’t actually want that bc We Know Why they’re saying that shit about Eddie and if they ever opened their mouth about Athena I don’t even really have to wonder about what sort of racist bullshit might fall out. Those aren’t the people I want attempting to critique Athena Grant. So actually yeah can everyone just shut the fuck up.

Myself included.

This might be a random question, but while reading some of your interpretation of the characters and how that is driving the way you’re writing the eating series, I became curious about your interpretation of JJ, and Kiara’s relationship with him. Rumoured cast tension and the weird vibe they had in season 4 aside—I’m genuinely interested to hear what you think of it

hey there, not random at all! I tend to write fics that hyperfixate/isolate the main characters and then slowly mix in peripheral characters as the story progresses, so it's a great question. in the context of this fic (and I guess in canon too), I see JJ as impulsive and well-meaning but ultimately too avoidant emotionally for Kie, who's puts on a tough face but generally seems to crave affection and intimacy. part of what made me want to write this fic is watching Kie seem so much more withdrawn and resigned this season as compared to the brassy, bird-flipping (but still fairly underdeveloped tbh) character we got previous seasons, and it hit me that unlike the other Pogues who have had a lot taken from them, she's kind of voluntarily given up a lot. I think Pope falls into this category, too. they both had comfortable lives and safety and good futures with parents who love them and chose the Pogues over it out of some sense of justice/adventure, but I imagine it's easy to resent that choice when your chosen family lets you down. I think when everyone's together or they're caught up in a heist Kie and Pope don't regret anything, and in general Pope is rarely excluded from anything because he's been friends with John B and JJ for so long, but I feel like as a newer addition (and someone who started the show relegated to the 'hot girl that hangs out with us'), Kie feels more disposable to them sometimes. I also think that hits especially hard after her parents betrayed her and shipped her off to that camp, staining that relationship.

in terms of JJ, I think when there's a lot of adrenaline and treasure-chasing going on, Kie and JJ work, and they conflate their brashness and heart-driven decisions with romantic compatibility. they're equal partners in those situations and bring complimentary things to the table, but romantically (at least to me) not so much. when things get hard or quiet, and especially when Kie's the one being distant or dealing with something, JJ's too avoidant to make her feel heard or supported, and I think that leaves her feeling isolated. even more than that, she spent so much of the last season watching JJ like a resigned parent who didn't know what to do with her unruly ADHD kid, and JJ really wasn't putting in the work to get any better. he was very 'this is who I am, this is why you love me', but he didn't show much growth or remorse, and he didn't seem particularly open to changing to connect more with her. they kind of come across as two people who rushed into something romantic and are slowly realizing it doesn't work but not ready to admit it yet. in this fic (and maybe a bit in canon), I think Kie feels a responsibility to him as his first real girlfriend (I mentioned somewhere in her dream that he navigates her body with a kind of sweetly careful and reverent inexperience), esp knowing how emotionally fragile he is under the brash exterior + how long it took him to come around to his feelings for her, and that's hard when she's going through her own shit. that's hard when she needs someone checking in on her.

anyway, all of these things are meant to work as a foil to how absolutely ruthless she can be with Rafe. how furiously he pays attention to everything she does (pathological though it may be) and picks up on her bullshit. how compulsively he prioritizes her even when she's being straight up malicious toward him and acting like she's fine/she can handle things she can't. those are hard things not to crave when she feels as powerless and discarded as she does, you know? so yeah, sorry this ended up being more about Kie and JJ than JJ alone lol, but I'll probably define him a little more in my head once he becomes a bigger part of the fic!

Ur oc is so interesting JSJJSJS if u can, pls info dump abt Lucien I must know more abt them 🗣️🗣️‼️🙏

I am finally alive enough to respond to this lets fucking GO

I'm gonna make a separate post of his full lore and allat so for now I'll kinda drop random info/lore pieces as well as how he came to be yippee

(Y'all know the drill everything under the cut)

Design/How he came to be:

For his design I took a lot of inspo from dif things:his bangs are inspired by Ken Sato's bangs, as are his thick ass mf brows. I wanted his bodytype to be built but not OVERLY bulky to suit the work he does, as he still has to be agile while also strong, I also looked into men's gymnastics and their bodytypes, as he grew up doing gymnastics and swimming.

His adult design has a lot of cosmetic dino/reptilian inspired traits, as I wanted him to feel almost like he was closer to dinosaurs than humans due to him isolating himself for so long. He has a split tongue and sharper canines than when he was younger, as well as his eyes being an almost yellow amber.

Honestly I am still working on his lore, as there are certain things I want to do but know it would be either too unrealistic, or too "Gary Stu"ish, so sometimes I gotta choose between doing the self indulgent shit or putting it on the back burner lmao

He's actually a revamped OC I already had, honestly when I first watched CT when it came out I wasn't going to insert him into it, but the hyperfixation hit hard so here we are. I am very glad I did though, as I've met multiple cool ass people thru it, not to mention theres just something about people GENUINELY caring and being interested about your OCs that makes the struggles of being an artist/writer so worth it (Love y'all 🫶)

A lot of his writing is inspired by myself and my life, though exaggerated in some spots. His dad is inspired by my dad in some aspects, as are his siblings. He also has a lot of my behaviors, including the negative ones, as I find writing them can help me learn how to cope/deal with them. His disabilities are also based off mine.

Honestly a lot of his writing was just done overtime, there wasn't a huge amount of planning put into it 😭 but that is just generally how I write my OCs, it just feels right

Lore and Character Traits:

He has been growing out his hair since Camp Cretaceous, the only time he's cut it since (aside from trimming dead ends) was to make a wig for his sister

Speaking of his sister, he has/had two siblings, Landon, his older brother, who unfortunately passed away a couple years before CC, and Mia, his little sister, who is luckily still kicking lmao 😭

He lives on the sanctuary he works at, his house is very secluded, as the line of work he does can end up with people... not being very fond of him, so he has to live in such a secluded/hidden area to stay safe

He started designing prothetics and disability aids when he was as young as 12, he now focuses on dino prosthetics, though he has designed a few human ones

Most of his work actually ON the sanctuary is "exotic vet" work (aka hes a dino doctor), as it is quite rare to find vets who aren't afraid of dinos 😭 though he also works on socializing the dinos

His work beyond that is much riskier, as he works to rescue dinos from shady businesses/people, mainly focusing on the dino equivalent of puppy mills, though he has rescued dinos from more dangerous organizations.

He started this work a little while after his father passed, he originally started to work on the sanctuary just doing basic work, mostly as a way to pay for the rehab he had to go through (will get more into that in his full lore post), as well as using it as a way to isolate himself, though very quickly got pulled into doing rescues

He got his growth spurt around this time as well, possibly due to being on Testosterone for a year at that point and having inherited his father's tall ass genes, as well as constantly working out. He was very awkward with it at first, going from being the tiny one of the group to being the tallest was a lot, so he's glad that Ben also had a sudden growth spurt, so he wouldn't be alone in the "Save any growth for the rest of us?" Comments 😭

Sammy calls him Bumpy's step father, as he's about as clingy and protective with her as Ben is. That dino saved his life on so many occasions that he just can't help but feel indebted to her in some way.

Despite Lucien being older than her, Sammy kinda looks at him like a little brother, being very protective of him. It's partially because she got so used to him being itty bitty and being the type to constantly hide behind people when he was scared on Nublar, so she's just not used to him being grown and able to protect himself. Has fully told Ben that if he hurts him she will take him out at the shin, Ben believes her.

He has a dino on the sanctuary that is his favourite, I haven't 100% settled on the breed, but what I know for sure is she is a carnivore that was rescued from one of the dino mills, and therefore has had multiple procedures to make her less dangerous (such as having her front teeth removed, being declawed, etc.) And she also unfortunately lost a leg while in said mill, though Lucien made her a prosthetic for it. She also has dwarfism due to being in a cage for such an important time in her life growth wise. She is Lucien's baby and he would go to war for her.

Lucien's music taste is,,, all over the place, ranging from kpop, to indie rock, to metal, honestly as long as its not country he'll probably enjoy it

His tattoos have to deal with his work, specifically the doll/robo joints, as part of him feels kind of like he was taken in a vulnerable state in his life to do things that no 16/17 yro should have to do and yet he can never bring himself to step away from the work now as he's too deep into it

That isnt to say he doesnt feel good about rescuing dinos, but unfortunately with that kind of work comes hurting people, and while they are bad people, it still fucks you up

Not super great at communication (which I am actually writing a fic about 😈) which can cause issues but he does try his best, esp for Ben

Collects plushies

Dr.Pepper enjoyer (its his entire personality I fear)

I cannot think of anything else atm that won't end up in the lore drop, but I might find one of those OC ask thingies so y'all can send in more specific asks, since I suck ass at thinking of things off the top of my head 😭 but again thank y'all for all the love for Lucien, he's my baby so to see other people loving him makes me so happy

Late to the ask game but-

❤️‍🔥 Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul

It's sorta my new hyperfixation til the new series I wanna watch/read

Oh I fucking love them. But for hot takes? Frankly, I get people disliking Skyler. Because from an outside perspective, Walt is dying of cancer and goddamn was she shitty about it. That's gonna taint everything. I'm sorry, but your feelings get put on a backburner when the other person's situation is "dying of cancer". "My loved one is dying of cancer" does not supersede the loved one's "dying of cancer". People get an allowance to not be their best self when they've been handed a death clock, you know? Oh, is he unusually cold and distant? Yeah, but from the perspective of anyone who doesn't know what Walt is up to, like her, he's dying of cancer. That's to be expected. Oh, has he become more volatile? Dying. Of cancer. These are normal human reactions to dying of cancer. It's pretty hard to stare down the jaws of mortality and not become a bit of an ass about it. It's about as "staring into the void" as you can get.

The best way to explain this is like, forget your viewer-knowledge for a moment and view her behavior from her own perspective with only her limited subjective knowledge. For a comparison, imagine someone randomly stabbed a stranger to death for no reason other than the fun of it. But by pure chance, that stranger happened to be a serial killer. Was the random murder for fun suddenly more okay? No, because they didn't know that. That wasn't driving their behavior.

That's Skyler's dealing with Walt's changes in behavior and everything at first. She didn't know he had become a drug manufacturer and was involved in organized crime. All she knew is that he was dying of cancer. Also, just not a fan of "force someone to get medical treatment they don't want to undergo for your own desires", that's pretty shit.

But like, yeah, dying of cancer is in fact a legitimate reason to be cold and distant and be acting out of character. From her limited subjective position, she was not supportive or comforting of the dying person she claimed to love. Which is just shitty. You know the whole concept of giving a very sick dog that has to be euthanized one really amazing (to a dog) day? That's what you're supposed to do for someone dying of a terminal illness when you love them. Cherish the moments you have left and make them absolutely fucking incredible.

Oh, the dying man wants to smoke some fucking weed? Who gives a fuck? Dude's fucking dying. Oh, he's not hopeful and optimistic? And you're getting angry at him for that? Come on, it takes a particular type of person to maintain such outlooks while dying of a terminal illness. You just never get the sense that she views him as a terminally ill person who's about to die and deserves to have his last days be the best fucking days possible, which just is so fucked to me.

Now, this isn't as important later on, but first impressions matter a lot. And that initial impression really sours things. She acts more like a mother towards him than a partner (and not a good one), and it doesn't feel like that's something he desired, it feels like that's something she chose to do.

Also, there's the aspect of "you have a disabled kid and are living on a single high school teacher and car washer's salary because you don't want to fucking work". Which like... shit. Absolute shit. It's not like she can't work. It's not like Flynn needs her to be a stay at home mom. Walt certainly never asked her to do this. There's never any implication that it's the common situation of the man wanting her to be a housewife. She just decided "hey, I'm gonna quit my job and chase my dream of being a writer while selling shit on eBay". And you don't gotta fucking quit your job to chase your dream of being a writer. Most writers have traditional jobs until they hit it big, not make their partner get a second job to support the family while they scalp shit on eBay and fail at being a writer.

Like, I guess my point is, swap the sexes and see if anyone would defend the behavior. Walt and Skyler are both toxic, shitty people. Like attracts like and both of them fucking suck. Flynn is literally the only person in that family who isn't a piece of shit. Skyler, Walt, Hank, and Marie are all flavors of asshole. None of them are UwU innocent put upon blorbos. They're all trash people being trash to each other and everyone around them, making the world a worse place for existing in it. Hank's a racist cop, Marie is the embodiment of white lady privilege, Walt's a violent self-centered, egotistical drug lord, and Skyler has genuinely cared about exactly one human being in her life. They're all shitty people.

To be clear, people taking Walt's side over Skyler after seeing the whole show are idiots too, it's just that it's not "either you side with Walt or Skyler". It's "wow, you are all horrid trash people". Jesse and Jimmy/Saul are miles above any of them.

I hadn't written almost any fanfiction in my life until my hyperfixation on Ed, Edd and Eddy hit me hard. Before that, I had only written two: an Adventure Time fanfic, and an Ano Hana fanfic (my biggest story), and I never finished any of them.

I love writing, it's one of the things that gives me the most pleasure in life, and as an autistic person, writing allows me to communicate and express myself in a much clearer, detailed and spontaneous way than speaking. However, I'm much more into writing informative and personal texts with my thoughts, analyses and opinions on different subjects. Writing fictional stories is something I always wanted and tried but I always had a lot of difficulty. I didn't really know what or how to write, and when I did, I only wrote the beginning and didn't know how to finish. I don't consider myself a very creative and imaginative person in general...

One thing that bothers me about my stories is that they tend to be made up almost entirely of dialogue. As much as I have good writing skills (at least I was always praised at school and college for it), ironically, I don't have the habit of reading books (but I've always read a lot of random content on the internet), much less fictional stories. I believe that my lack of reading works of fiction, and the fact that I consume fictional stories almost entirely in audiovisual format (series, films, cartoons, animes...), must have influenced my writing of fictional stories to focus on dialogue.

I don't know if this is really a flaw or if it's just a particular characteristic of my writing style, but I think my fanfics are so different from others because of this. I tend to write a looot of dialogue and almost no description of what's happening, especially if I'm writing in English since it's not my first language, so I don't feel comfortable going into so much detail in a language in which I don't feel 100% confident to write pleasantly, fluidly and without making mistakes.

Now that I'm hyperfixated on Ed, Edd n Eddy, I've written so many beginnings and parts of fanfics and comics that I don't even know how many I've done so far. This hyperfixation awakens my creative side in a way I've never seen before. The stories are so spontaneous that I feel as if they wrote themselves and even that they're beyond my control. Sometimes I plan something for a story and suddenly it takes another direction, as if it were alive and the characters were deciding on their own. The ideas just come to me without me having to put in any effort and that's really amazing and unprecedented to me. I don't find it difficult to continue the stories, and on the contrary, I find it difficult to stop writing them (which is also an obstacle to finishing them).

I feel like especially in my Ed, Edd n Eddy fanfics my writing follows this pattern. I think it's because I try to make it feel like a real EEnE episode (I even like to play with fourth wall breaks in this written format, such as the characters referring to the number of lines in the story), I try to keep the vibe of what an EEnE episode would be like, so I focus a lot on the dialogue and not so much on describing the scenario and what the characters are feeling (I'm not saying that I don't make these descriptions, just that they tend to happen eventually or to be very straight to the point compared to other fanfics).

I don't know, my impression is that the dialogue in my stories is enough to understand what's happening and the characters' feelings, but I need to be careful because since I'm the one creating the story, it's obviously easy for me to imagine what's happening, and maybe that won't be so clear to other readers. But I think I also like the idea of ​​letting the reader have the freedom to imagine how things are happening themselves.

A very positive point in Ed, Edd n Eddy is that the characters, especially the 3 main ones, have such unique and distinct personalities that it's practically not necessary to identify who's speaking because it's easy to know. So that's one more reason why I don't feel the need to interrupt the dialogue in my stories, because the dialogues are fluid and hardly broken by a (Name) said.

Ive finally made a sandrock OC (KIND OF) I havent just stolen the design of and put somewhere else. and I really want to talk about her. So here she is.

I wanted to give some lore to this character Qi mentions 3 times

AND now shes in my brain, so Ill say some things about her:

She wanted to be a biologist but ended up going into the same type of research job Qi's in because it paid more

Qi and Bugs went to college together and ended up working pretty closely on a few projects, maybe even had internships/jobs at the same place for a while before Qi moved to Sandrock.

She got the nickname Bugs because she would always pick up random bugs in elementry school and the name just kind of stuck. She prefers it to her actual name (which I have not thought of yet because names are hard)

Qi says that they are rivals, but I dont think thats actually true given how much they talk. I think its a lot more like a one sided rivalry where Qi has decided shes his rival and she just kinda plays along because its fun, but theyre actually just friends (not that Qi would admit that, but Bugs refers to and thinks of him as a friend)

Although she still works in Vega 5, she doesnt particularly love it there. To her, she just has nowhere else to go and the pay and lifestyle of Vega 5 is too much to resist, especially for someone wihtout that many goals.

Qi managed to get her into Gungham and so they have amazing conversations that only come from ADHD-Autism friendships where both people have the same hyperfixation. (I speak from experience when I say its the best thing)

She visits sandrock sometimes because she doesnt know where else to go when she has stacked up vacation days.

She gets very annoyed whenever people dont know what they're talking about, hence her friendship with Qi not really being an issue, because both of them are like this and they both thrive off of each others intellectual energy.

ALSO. Some things about her personal relationships to people in Sandrock:

Her and Grace are dating, mostly because I want Grace to have a girlfriend so bad (I am so starved for sapphic relationships you dont understand). They have been rotating in my brain SO MUCH, so I'll talk about them. This is largely because it would be SO FUNNY.

Their relationship started because Bugs would regularly visit Sandrock, so she would see Grace a lot. Since the Blue Moon Saloon isnt really that busy, they would talk to eachother quite a bit. After a few trips of both of them talking, Bugs decides it would be funny to mess with Qi whenever her and Qi eat dinner later that night, and she thinks the funniest way to do that is by Grace hitting on her at this dinner. Make it real awkward for Qi. I plan on making a comic for this actually SO we will see if it actually gets done. If it does it will be so funny you dont even know (it definetly will not be thats the brainrot talking.)

After that, they meet up outside the Blue Moon Saloon to toast to their success of making Qi extremely confused, they walk around sandrock and sit at the oasis a while. Nothing happens that night, but they both come away from it as deeper friends and a little crush. Not in like, a way that is that noticable, or a way either of them intend on pursuing, but a way that definelty exists. Neither of them are stupid, and both of them tend to do a good amount of introspection, so they both pick up on this and it changes the dynamic a little, but in a good way.

As time goes on, Bugs makes more and more visits to Sandrock, to see Qi of course, but the reason increasingly becomes to see Grace as well. They both flirt with eachother a bit here and there, until Grace asks her out on a date and it ends up becoming a thing. Still thinking of details there BUT! They will be thought of, dont worry.

NOW, For what this relationship means for them both and their similarities and a couple differences:

For both of them, this is the first romantic relationship they have had that really feels like the other person can keep up with them. Both of them are super smart, and they both sort of have unfollowed dreams.

They are also both workaholics discontent with the circumstances they're in, and I feel like they bond a lot over that.

BOTH OF THEM ARE VERY SILLY. Grace, especially if youre dating her, uses a lot of very silly language. Like whenever youre dating, her greeting is "Hey good lookin, what ya got cookin?" She has many many silly lines and I would reccomend reading her dialogue page if you havent already read it all the way through like 3 times. Bottom line is, shes goofy. And Bugs is also goofy. Not in exactly the same way, but like she calls Qi a chatty cathy, thats goofy. AND SOMETHING GRACE WOULD DO IF HER AND QI WERE FRIENDS IN THAT WAY. They would be a very annoying couple and I find that extremely funny especially in the context of them spending a good amount of time with Qi, who probably doesnt pick up on it half the time.

Both of them are the type to distract from their inner turmoil with humor. If you have gone on a playdate with grace or read her entire dialogue page, you would know she does this a non-zero amount of times, quite commonly in fact. Bugs does the same type of thing, but she does tend to talk a lot less than Grace.

Bugs is an introvert unlike Grace, but she can read people surprisingly well. Not anywhere near as well as Grace, of course, but still pretty well.

Both have jobs that end up with them being relatively isolated from personal connections. For Bugs, shes working in a team with a lot of people she doesnt really like, for Grace, she has to keep quiet about her job for the most part. This leads to them having an interesting dynamic in which both of them dont really know how to navigate personal, unguarded relationships super well. Bugs hasnt had any close friends in a long time, and Grace cant turn off her agent brain, oftentimes getting a lot more from Bugs than Bugs would want her to. I have a real thing for relationships where one person is quite guarded and the other person can read them super well, and Bugs and Grace fit this dynamic very well in both directions. Bugs tends to read Grace more than she expects too, not by a crazy amount or anything, but she does catch Grace offguard occasionally, just because Grace tends to drop it more often without realizing it around Bugs.

They have the same sort of (aspiring) archeolegist and researcher dynamic Grace and Qi have (That I touched on here) but romantic so. I think thats fun personally, because its a cool sort of combining of forces. It also hits a bit different from Grace's and Qi's simply because Bugs is a lot more like Grace personality wise.

A couple other relationships in sandrock:

Her and Zeke get along. She visits Zeke sometimes, because of her interest in biology. And I just think they would get along. Not just because she likes plants but I also think she would appricate how Zeke is very knowlegable on what he does as well as desert farming in general.

She doesnt like the church very much (for the innate ideological differences that come with being a researcher), but she still has a laugh with Dan-Bi occasionally.

I like the idea of her getting along with Fang a bit. I think she has at least looked at some of what she uses to make medicine and is like "oh wow thats genius!"

I think she would have a very fun time messing with Yan (because Yan is literally so funny idc what anyone else says I love him so much) I dont think she would like him, but I think she would have fun talking to him every now and then just to prod him (which Yan ofc doesnt notice) for goofs.

I love the idea of her getting along with Unsuur. I cannot explain why. But I think they would be drinking buddies.

Some design notes and how she dresses when shes not in a lab coat:

I had to give her a long lab coat because thats a demographic severely underepresented in sandrock

Her shirt color is pretty similar to Qi's undershirt, it just felt like it fit. Its also half untucked like Qi's, but Bugs does it because she thinks it looks good while Qi does it because hes tired. I dont really know how to draw that sort of distinction, but just know that its there.

Her belt buckle is gold while Qis is silver

Her hairtie is dark blue, Qis tie is light blue. Theres not a whole lot to that I just thought it was neat personally.

Her fashion sense tends to be pretty casual, usually hoodies and shorts while shes in her apartment and pretty normal streetwear outside of it. I dont think that she wears as many belts as the average Sandrock or Portia citizen. Since we havent been to Vega 5, I cant say for sure what the normal fashion sense is like, but based off of Qi and Petra, who are more like the average Vega 5er, and what is known about the culture, I assume regular dress tends to be more busniess casual-formal. I dont count Merlin, who was so eccentric she got kicked out of Vega 5, Or Mint, who seems overly casual, in this assesment. However, Bugs dresses in whatever is slightly more casual than the normal Vega 5 streetwear. Not as casual as Mint, but definetly not formal. She's kind of done with Vega 5's general busniess culture, not done enough to leave, but done enough that she doesnt really care what she wears off the clock if that makes sense.

That is all for my unhinged ramblings. I have a lot of ideas about her and maybe I will actually do something with those, so I thought I should introduce her.

[am-i-interrupting]

!!! I haven’t done a matchup in forever !!! Hope I did it right !!!

My pronouns are she/they and I am demiromantic? I cut feelings/attachment when I get really upset at people. I don’t mind any characters really! It’s hard to describe my personality but I am bubbly, blunt, sensitive but also real, I have ADHD (the kind I have used to be called ADD) if that helps with personality as well.

Besides ADHD I have epilepsy and my vision is not the best in the slightest :,) I also have a bit of hearing issues. My fashion is all over the place but: bright colors (mainly pink) I wear bootcut/bell bottoms a lot, I love t-shirts (specifically old-school characters) and stripes. I crochet!! Like a lot!! Mainly small blankets or plushies but I’ve made 2 failed sweaters! I also do cozy gaming and drawing!

How I show love is gift giving, words of affirmation, and quality time! I love to talk and talk and talk so that’s what I count as quality time just having someone listen or hear me. Music is just about as random as clothes! If a song is good then I like it! But mainly pop, RnB (80s - now), musicals, and classical music! I wouldn’t say I have a dark sense of humor but I am able to find a joke in everything since that’s my coping mechanism though jokes are always a hit or miss depending on the mood.

I finally landed on a butterfly! Because they’re pretty, love daytime activities, and bad vision. Butterflies are beautiful and fragile and I’ve been described as that since I am very short and been called pretty a lot 😅

Your Match Up Is. . .

Vaggie!

You and Vaggie met soon after she met Charlie. With a personality like yours, you were already helping the princess start renovations on the Hotel.

Meeting her when she was in such a fragile state was a huge help for her.

You and Charlie helped her to feel safe and welcome in this place she’d never been.

It would be years before you found out that she was an angel and not a sinner like yourself but we’ll get to that in due time.

Vaggie was absolutely enthralled by your personality from the beginning.

She adored how you could go from optimistic to serious when the moment called for it. It was that bluntness mixed with the positivity that drew her in.

Of course, your beauty even in your demonic form helped with that.

Your wings would definitely draw her in.

From the beginning, she is very accommodating to you.

She has no problems repeating things if you didn’t hear it.

You bet that she is researching triggers of epilepsy and going through the Pride Ring to specifically find locations that have strobing/flashing lights and writing them down so you can avoid them.

She will also absolutely take note of parts of your life your ADHD effects.

If you have a favorite spoon, it is your spoon now. No one else uses that spoon. She is prepared to fight someone over that spoon.

It took a while for the two of you to finally get together. Mainly because Vaggie would go to confess and then freeze up.

Charlie standing in the background giving her a big smile and thumbs up did not help as much as the princess thought it did. She just didn’t have the heart to tell her that.

It wasn’t until you took initiative and confessed that anything happened between the two of you.

Vaggie absolutely froze and just stared at you for a moment, mouth open in shock.

Just when you began to think you’d read the signals wrong that she said she’d love to go out with you.

If you’ve watched The Owl House, there was definitely a moment afterwards that resembled when Luz asked out Amity and they awkwardly held hands after.

She will spend all day listening to you ramble and actively logs informations away about your hyperfixations.

She sees yarn she things you’ll like? She’s buying it.

You’re almost out of stuffing? Not anymore.

She has an entire bookshelf dedicated to showcasing all the plushes you’ve made her.

If you’re ever away for an extended period of time, prepare to come back to her asleep surrounded by them.

Vaggie is a fan of morning cuddles, you cannot convince me otherwise!

Before you wake up, she will trace the patterns in your wings.

If your wings give you any problems, somehow she just magically knows how to fix it. . . Must have researched it. Obviously there’s no other reason she’d know that, right?

You don’t even have to worry about clothing having holes for your wings because if you don’t alter it, she will.

Also, queen of compliments. She will compliment you all the time.

Be prepared for a lot of: “You look so pretty today, babe.” “Ooh, what’s this song? I like the rhythm.” “Your new plush is looking good so far.” “I love that color combo.” Normally accompanied by hands on the shoulder and a kiss to the temple.

She loves watching you crochet, draw, or game. She finds it calming.

Occasionally, she will try to join you.

She might not be good at it but she tries and it’s adorable to watch her succeed and fail. She makes an earnest effort both ways.

Because Vaggie is such a calm, attentive person, you probably don’t have many fights that blow up.

Even if you do, she knows to just give you space to work things out.

She’s not going to go away but she will let you breathe. She’s not a smotherer.

That’s why she doesn’t try to hover when you start avoiding her after it gets out she’s an angel.

After a couple days, she doesn’t corner you exactly but she does catch you alone.

She doesn’t say anything. She doesn’t force a conversation. She just lets you stew with your feelings until you either leave (in which case, she will finally intervene and stop you) or blow up at her.

Once you both calm down, you have a long conversation about trust and secrets.

She’s able to relax when she finally sees another plush be added to her collection.

Coming out as a proud Kaveh hater. Fuck that guy. He talks like the guy who groomed me. That's a 30 year old alcoholic who lives in the house of a man he talks constant shit about. He's not funny, he's not cool, he's a fucking asshole and I hate him.

Is this just because I'm looking for Alhaitham content (I find him entertaining and relatable) and it's all Kavetham (I find him irritating at the best of times)? You bet your ass it is. Can we please define characters by something that isn't what they put their penis in? Please?

And don't even get me fucking STARTED on the fanon versions of Alhaitham and Kaveh.

Alhaitham wants to be left alone, he's not an asshole. He wants to lead a normal life. He wants to function in his own space on his own time. Is that really too much to ask?!

Kaveh's not your little uwu boy. If someone is instigating a fight between him and Alhaitham, it's him. If someone is swinging first, it's him. If he were to get hit, he'd hit back twice as hard, and then hit the person three more times for good measure. He gives as good as he gets.

Can we please just have this hell fandom that I can't leave because I'm autistic and it's my hyperfixation actually understand a character, or is basic reading comprehension too much to ask? I'm sorry, this got really out of hand, I'm just frustrated and I don't intend to be rude to Kaveh fans. Like who you like, but please just like it for what it is, not what random internet strangers think it is.
