HERE, LET ME

author’s note : that one art with logan and ashlyn holding pumpkins reference

concept : taylor helps ashlyn carve a pumpkin

genre : oneshot, fluff

content : mild use of curse words, the whole group is mentioned,

“i’m about to make it look like the next phantom i’ll be seeing..” ashlyn thought as she stared at the pumpkin, gripping her knife harshly. logan tried assisting her but accidentally made it worse. tyler and aiden are making fun of each other’s pumpkins. ben is grabbing drinks. taylor was… where’s taylor?

ashlyn’s breath hitched when she suddenly felt taylor’s hand on her shoulder “what happened to yours?” taylor giggled. ashlyn narrowed her eyes and slightly blushed out of embarrassment “i tried.” she mumbled, causing taylor to let out a laugh. “it’s.. something.” taylor smiled.

taylor took the last pumpkin available and set it in front of ashlyn “let’s do it together.”

the blush crept up to ashlyn’s cheeks, she nodded. ashlyn’s eyes slightly widened as taylor held her by the wrist, guiding ashlyn and occasionally taking the knife from her to cut open some parts herself.

⠀ › ⠀ashlyn keeps a picture of her and taylor holding the finished pumpkin saved on her phone in the “important” folder

Sometimes, I wonder what SBG would be like if it were set when the six were in college?

Taylor and Ashlyn meeting because they're roommates, and Taylor being excited to meet a new friend whilst Ashlyn is keeping to herself and listening to music all the time.

Aiden coming to meet Ben after a lecture and meeting Logan (and freaking him out).

The Sorrell Weed House trip being for a history credit they need and it being the easiest and quickest way to get it.

The Crane people (I forgot their name) being a mix of students and teachers like some sort of college cult.

Tyler already having a scholarship and finding it harder and harder to keep it with the lack of sleep he's getting.

Aiden not actually going to school but having to find excuses to stay around the campus so he and the group can plan and strategize.

Ben spending hours searching in the library or scouring the internet for answers as to what's going on.

Ben's bullies haze him and him having to watch so many new students go through it before he flips his shit.

The crew being so done with the phantoms in the middle of finals week they spend the whole night studying whilst in the phantom realm.

Rumours going around that they're drug addicts and that's why they all look tired.

I'm glad Red set it in high-school years but sometimes I wonder how it would change the plot

SBG GANG MENTAL ANALYSIS

sorry for the delay!

alright, gotta say... this one's a bit shorter. but the next will come like a train wreck i promise😇

Part 3: Ben Clark

oh the sweet old Ben... a kind and loving soul muted away. I'm thinking of inspecting his trauma and his general actions, and give him a diagnosis which I'm sure is canon even. I'm sure everyone who knows the disorder itself is aware that Ben is, in fact, suffering from PTSD.

let's start. first, what is PTSD?

PTSD, or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a mental condition where someone feels what they have previously went through in a past traumatic experience. PTSD is frequently found with flashbacks to the moment, overwhelming feelings and sudden responses. there are two types of this disorder, PTSD and C-PTSD. but we'll look in the first one for now.

Ben has always been a really kind character. ever since the beginning. more of a 'gentle giant' type of character, though we never see him talk. he's soft, he loves to help his friends and never does anything vulgar around them, including the phantom dimension. he feels nice when he gets praised even if he doesn't show it too.

the first time we see him getting flashbacks and his anger issues being visible is when we first see Barron's behaviour towards Logan. anything that includes actual bullying gives him flashbacks and his response is his anger issues unleashing.

in his backstory, Ben is shown that he's more of a shy type of person, but he loves singing. because his tall and intimidating appereance doesn't match his softness, a group of dumbasses try to 'fix' him which he rejects. back when Shane strangled him, is what he gets flashbacks to. it was something that changed his entire life, he had a passion for singing but he never did with his damaged voice. god knows how many times he was hospitalized when he was going around to fights because of his outburst of rage.

yep, rage. I'd classify his anger issues as the 'rage' type with PTSD. PTSD rage makes more sense to me than just normal anger problems. I've seen and lived with many people with anger issues, but none of them are similar to rage. anger problems in general are usually verbal, if you don't make them mad to a point they're all bark and no bite. but of course after a point the violence behind the generic anger issues can unleash (see Tyler)

okay, back to Ben and rage. rage is an extreme condition of anger, the person gets violent and their thoughts are clouded with the rage which makes them not think before doing anything drastic. but he's not very closed off about it either, actually. the time where he accepted Aiden to do the storytelling was before the first half of season one, the gang wasn't even that close.

this means that he saw them as actual friends so early on. probably before everyone. Ashlyn took her sweet time accepting the friendship, I'm kind of sure that Aiden didn't at first (see Tyler, yet again), Tyler also definitely didn't (as said by Taylor in season two premiere) and I think Logan has attachment/trust issues but that's for later. the only other possible person that might accept the group fastly is Taylor but with Tyler's influence so close to her, there is also a chance she didn't at first.

Ben was fine with his friends knowing his past. he put his earphones on because he didn't want to hear about it, or else he knew he'd get flashbacks yet again. I'm thinking that it could be diagnosed too. Aiden knows that it's not just a memory, it's flashbacks to Ben and he covers for him whenever he sees something that might trigger Ben. after learning the situation, Taylor also does the same. they learn the severity of his problems and are all fine with helping him.

another thing I'm sure of is that he's extremely attached to his friends. we know that everyone is close-knit, but Ben specifically. he might not speak but that doesn't mean that he doesn't enjoy their time. he does, fully. which is I think why he/his room was... like that in the facility, without any spoilers.

to say, the gang is more than just friends to him; they're his found family, where he feels like he belongs. they don't judge him for his silence there. they understand his past. they're not scared of him just because of the way he was built and they're not going to be either.

but what about his family?

families are one of the most important part of a character and their backstory. the family is what decides how they will live, act and even feel sometimes. then what about Ben's? where were they during his backstory?

yeah. Ben's rage causes something terrible to happen.

but it ends better for everyone. Ben gets the therapy he needed, starts to live with Aiden, makes the gang his friends and it actually goes well.

his parents?

we meet Naomi and William during Lily's birthday.

yes, Mike, Lily is goshdarn adorable.

first, I think Naomi and William aren't to blame. I think they did the best they could; they tried to help Ben, tried to help him get therapy, sent him to Aiden's place to help himself. then why didn't Ben's story stop?

Ben couldn't control his rage until their house got destroyed and he realized just how far it got. he sneaked out of the house, a lot of people seem to not see that detail. and they seem to be very caring, too.

they're amazing as a whole family, to be honest. even the little Lily doesn't care about her birthday getting wrecked, because she wants to help Ben and his friends. she indirectly helped Tyler extremely well, since the sedative idea came from her in the first place.

Naomi was the first person who brought up the whole 'we-are-seeing-phantoms' discussion and William didn't hesitate to talk about it. Naomi was also the first person to notice the phantoms when the worlds collided for a mere second.

and Ben himself has shown completely zero negative behaviour towards them. and Lily gets treated like a princess -even if she accidentally neutered Ben-

side note here, that Lily also really loves the family too. the way she cuddled Aiden when he died and came back was so cute to be honest.

so I don't think the family is anywhere to blame either. it was Ben who was strangled, Ben who fought, and Ben who saw therapy. the reason why I'm talking about this is because a lot of people suddenly blame a character's family when there's a problem with them.

guys. people with caring, loving families can be traumatized too. just because someone has a happy family doesn't mean they're suddenly over any trauma they live. doesn't mean everything is suddenly okay. it means that they have an accepting place to go to, a safe space. and Ben's family? I think they're just like that. they desperately try to help. help their son, their nephew and their friends. hell, Lily trying to help also speaks volumes in my opinion. their father -dilf no.2 after Mike right here- William was the one who offered the idea to get the kids saved from the centipede phantom. and to be honest? it was pretty smart.

she also tried to prevent Emma from going mad because come on, Emma would absolutely wreck anyone if they dared blame Ashlyn for this. (still I think Jessica has to apologize for being to insensitive smh)

Naomi really seems like a sweetheart to me, I already said what to be said about William in a single very important side sentence and if there was any kind of in-family neglect Lily would also be affected. but she isn't so I think we're good? I adore the whole Ben family tho.

to wrap it all up.

Ben is suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which makes him see flashbacks and turn into a rage mode each time he is triggered due to his backstory, being bullied because he's too soft. his rage causes a gang to destroy his home (HELLO?? ARE THERE NO FUNCTIONING COPS IN THIS STOR-- oh wait it's america yea there ain't nvm) and his parents try their best. move, get Ben to therapy and let Daniel's side help him by doing stuff he loves. Ben is still trying to recover, but his flashbacks are strong due to impacting his entire life from his voice and make it difficult.

(vocal chords repair by time actually, but he hasn't been speaking for like 4 years so maybe it'd need some voice exercises until it returns to normal?? if it's just vocal chords he'd be alright. imagine if he could talk and sing normally all this time but he just didn't know. it's something between "aww poor guy :((" and "lmao"

but I don't know about voice box, can someone enlighten me on vocal chord damage vs. voice box damage? thamks)

and Lily. Lily is a cinnamon roll. no other opinions allowed.

-i wanted to make a part for Ben and Taylor but i decided wasn't fit here :P-

Hello it's part 3 of battletech and SBG brain rot and its time for my personal favorite character Logan!

What he lacks in pure brawn or confidence, he makes up for with brains and skill. He may be the physically weakest on the team, but he brings a vital role to the team. Simply put, he Is the firepower that they need? Whether he's shooting from afar with Ashlyn's dad's rifle or up close with his pistol, he has skill, and over time, he eventually has the will to pull the trigger every time. the BZK-F3 The Hollander shown below is a 35-ton light machine built around one very obvious system: the deadly Poland Main Model A gauge rifle similar to the autocanon 20 is capable of ripping off limbs and crushing cockpits almost as efficiently, but from more than double the range and for less than half the heat. This is the Hollanders sole weapon system to defend itself with. Built as a tool of defiance against a superior enemy, the Hollander was a symbol of resistance and liberation for its allies and an embarrassing defeat for its enemies. Those who looked down upon humble light machines as mere bugs often met their end to the song of the gauss rifles. hyper sonic Crack Logan is often considered the weakest link of the group; he's one of the first to get injured. He's not as strong as the others, but when it comes down to it, a rifle round rips through everyone the same way, and he's the one pulling the trigger. The Hollander is slow for a light mech, poorly armored for its weight, and does need support, but in the right hands with the right team, it will rip the enemy apart piece by piece, all while its lancemates get to kick apart the torn-up scrap. 

Notes:again another one mostly based on vibes I love Logan so him using one of my favorite mech designs seemed to fit the arts a bit old but it's got buckets of charm hopefully it will be getting a model soon too
