how the turned have tables or how does the saying go

[ldotherstuff]

Nothing says personal purgatory more than a playground level situationship between two grown ass adults who are both socially inept in their own ways, both dislike each other on a fundamental level & refuse to stop using each other as means of dissociation.

Both of them wanted to fucking kill themselves after their coping mechanisms stopped working for a whole day. They lowkey both take it out on the other when nothing else is in their control. Jax is an ass obout it and Gangle simultaniously minds alot but also doesn't.

Ribbun week: "Alternate Universe" (Hedonism City) + "Plushies"

Wanted to post this before the new ep aired. Updated Ginnie's look in light of her new mask in canon - I think she looks cute enough. Had a great time turning her into a marketable plushie.

[notnights]

Well you see, it all started when Jax stepped on Gangle's comedy mask in the pilot and I was like "oh I hope these two interact more."

TADC Ep 4 Ramble! (?)

OKAY!! ive been wanting to yap about this for a while so!!

FIRST!! what finally got me to make this post!

the difference between how jax and ragatha worded it when they said something about gangle being happy!!

as you can see here, jax says "I like you better when you're sad."

but why am i thinking about this so much?

jax doesn't really say "i hate when youre happy," or anything of that sort! he just says "i like you better when you're sad." is there really that much of a difference? well, yes!

there's actually a BIG difference!

"I hate when you're happy," would mean that Jax ONLY likes Gangle when she's sad and that he makes her sad BECAUSE she's happy, which isn't the case!

We KNOW that Jax doesn't do it because he dislikes when she's happy (although that MIGHT be the case, he definitely doesnt overall HATE when she's happy) because he says in Ep 1;

"I'm fine with doing whatever, as long as I get to see funny things happen to people."

AND at the beginning of Ep 3, he has absolutely no issue with her being happy in any way. You can even visually see the reason he throws her mask is because he thinks it's funny.

(he literally dgaf)

Hell, you can tell he wasn't even considering throwing her mask until Gangle mentioned the doors and he was like "oh stars yknow what would be funny..."

oh stars wait i didnt know there was a pic limit hokd on

okay had to delete some SORYR wait does fhis mean this has to be a seperate part thing??? how do i even do fhat... oh dear... THATS OKAY ILL FIGURE IT OUT!! anyways

I'm sure you get my point! Yes, in Ep 2, he seems a bit happier with her being sad, he LITERALLY SAYS "Aren't you supposed to be submissive and agreeable?", but also remember he SPECIFICALLY says

"I like you better when you're sad." not that he ONLY likes her when she's sad, which is kinda my point with this.

Now, what makes it so different to Ragatha's comment about her being happy?

"You're kind of annoying when you have your happy mask."

Yeah. Kind of a big difference.

She just straight up says she thinks Gangle is annoying when she has her happy mask.

It can be argued that it's because Ragatha was hit with the good ol' stupid sauce, but if you haven't noticed, it's not that it made her stupid(although it sorta did), it just made her brutally honest with how she felt.

Gangle already knows that Ragatha is a people pleaser. Kind of everyone knows that. But regardless, Gangle considers Ragatha a friend. Sure, she could've expected it from Jax, but from RAGATHA?

Yeah. I wouldn't expect it either.

Because again, unlike Jax, Ragatha says she finds Gangle annoying when she's happy. Jax does not. And we know Jax is typically at least somewhat honest about how he feels. He literally has no reason to lie to Gangle about that, though. Like literally no reason.

"I like you better when you're sad" is a BIG difference than "You're kind of annoying when you have your happy mask."

Before anyone mentions it, although yes Ragatha DOES say happy MASK, Gangle doesn't exactly show she's sad when she has her happy mask on. She seems happier than when she doesn't have it, but we can pretty confidently assume that's not the case. I'll get into her mask later, though.

Regardless, what we know so far is that nobody really knows her happy mask doesn't actually make her happy except (now) Pomni and MAYBE Zooble.

Although I sorta doubt the Zooble thing because Ep 4 allowed us to learn that Gangle has a bigger mood drop the longer she's 'happy' for, since happiness isn't what she truly feels most of the time.

OKAY next post so i can put more images.

[for-the-love-of-this]

How is it that Jax managed to be less mean than Ragatha?

(This sort of serves as a part two to my tadc main theme analysis post)

Jax uses the words "like" and "sad."

Ragatha uses the words "annoying" and "happy."

Like and sad contradict each other.

Annoying and happy contradict each other.

(The word annoying could've been "I don't like it," but intentionally wasn't)

All in all, both have a positive and a negative connotation, but one line is meant to be hurtful.

Jax (unintentionally) was being nice. If what I said in my prior post applies here, this means that he was simply saying that he likes Gangle better when she's being herself; when she's not hiding her true identity. The main face she's stuck with every time the comedy mask breaks is the real her, and she shouldn't keep hiding herself.

You can argue that she's used to Jax's rudeness. Either way, Gangle is able to stand her ground even after hearing something that (on the surface) sounds pretty mean. And Jax has always managed to keep the mask away from her.

But when Ragatha spoke to her in a similar fashion, Gangle's reaction changed. She has to walk away.

Here's the difference. Ragatha states that Gangle is annoying when she wears her happy mask/fake personality (yes, she calls Gangle annoying AND fake in the same breath, subliminally).

It's a more cruel version of what Jax said. She is someone who has shown little to no lack of concern with most characters, but the truth serum (a.k.a the pink sauce) caused Ragatha's irritation to rise to the surface... and perhaps a character flaw akin to jealousy? This was after Ragatha told her she's way more responsible... "Why are you even the boss anyway?"

theyre in my head. forever. take some scraps

Wow actual ribbun fluff

(Click for better quality)

"your stupid face" by Kaden MacKay was stuck in my head the entire time while drawing this ;w;

If you have any ribbun fluff ideas pleaseee gimme. I can't come up with many scenarios for them rn (its so hard lol)

[verreerrant]

Characters in boxes.... honestly a fun way to work on dynamic poses. two wholesome and one toxic ship, I'm totally willing to do more if anyone has recommendations, my multi-shipper brain short-circuits sometimes.
