Starlo's personality

I'm still confused about this man's 'true self,' gotta admit. How much of 'himself' IS there in 'North Star'?

What we know about real Star:

He's a nerd/geek obsessed with westerns; that's where he got the inspiration to build WE

He looks different than with the hat on and used to wear braces

Was shy in his teenage years around Ceroba (no idea how he acted normally) + couldn't confess to her

His mom (after killing him) says how he's never been the one to follow rules. I wonder what she meant by that. Rules, like, you're supposed to hate humans like everyone else or rules, like, no sneaking off to practice your shooting and lasso skills? Both?

Ed describes the 'old him' as a fearless leader and as a monster who could 'make his own fun in the little things' (you mean he used to be more humble but at the same time remained an ambitious risk-taker?)

Is insecure about where he comes from and what he looks like

We don't have enough info to know what he was like as a kid. I'm curious if absolutely everything about North Star is the opposite of Starlo (I don't think it is); both are kind and protective. Still, I can't help but wonder if the Starlo after Showdown, in both routes, is the real him or not. Maybe 50% yes and 50% no

Just from the end credits, the only thing I got about him was that he's kind and friendly and optimistic and charming (North Star is this way too, but more exaggerated). Nothing new

So maybe Starlo IS North Star, but more modest (aka not as exaggerated)

I'm curious about your thoughts guys.

Also I forgot to mention how he wanted to plan a PARTY for Kanako, in neutral says that the PARTY in the saloon was great (and the letter he sent was pretty charming), wants to accompany Ceroba in the Steamworks, is open about how he feels (immediately openly confronts Ceroba and calls her out; he's assertive), not afraid to get physical if it means protecting Clover & Martlet, can be pretty loud (like when he spotted Clover after sparing him in neutral, he was like "DEPUTY!!!"

I'm left wondering if all this is the real him or not. I think it is. Just maybe toned down a bit :) It's the only explanation for the fact he's been doing all this for a really long time and never showing signs of wanting to stop/that it exhausted him

I cannot BREATHE at the Wanda Childa’s fake death performance. Everything about it was so fucking funny and peak intrepid heroes of them

[juniper-clan]

itd be pretty funny if the kits developed an accent from being raised by heron

Like iPad babies raised by watching too much Bluey!

I just read a fic where Jason goes back in time to before Bruce was born, and he kinda just stays there, so it’s both Alfred and Jason raising Bruce and the rest of the Batfamily, but I just think it would be so much funnier/cooler if Jason went back in time and he just becomes Alfred. Like, it’s a closed loop and Alfred was Jason and Jason was Alfred. Idk, I just think it was a fun concept.

listen i am geralt of rivia hater number one but one thing i actually CANNOT stand is when the fandom mischaracterizes him. took one look at this man who speaks very straight-forwardly and matter-of-fact and is a little recalcitrant with his words sometimes and went "haha he communicates in grunts! man who only says 'hm'!" and then won't even write him to speak in full fucking sentences. hello???? hello???????? yes the netflix show was a bad influence on everybody because they were trying too hard to depict geralt as a stoic manly badass but we CANNOT let that distract us from the REAL thing to make fun of geralt for. which are his Constant Unprovoked Monologues

begging studios to stop fucking casting Americans and Brits in series that take place in other parts of Europe.

[clocks-are-round]

thinking about my wyoming headcanon again

he was born and raised in the u s of a, but heard that the code names were u.s. states and thought it would be hilarious to pretend to be british. he committed to the bit so hard that most of the freelancers believed him.

it helped that most of THEM were american born and raised— meaning they would probably hear an australian and ask if they’re from england or vice versa, while also fully believing british solely means someone from england (im american too, i know us, that’s most of us)— so they hear him talk about tea and crumpets and throw in some slang he learned from doctor who and sherlock, go “yeah sounds about right” and never question him.

he even HAD HIS NAME LEGALLY CHANGED TO ‘SOUND MORE BRITISH’ AND WAS SO CLOSE TO COMMITTING TO A MONOCLE BUT SETTLED FOR THE PRINGLES ‘STACHE

then after the brain damage with gary, reggie ALSO fully believed the bit, so for all intents and purposes his reality is that he IS from england. after reconvening with wyoming and realizing this, gary absolutely has a ‘well fuck’ moment but yknow what can he do about it now lol guess that’s just life for ya just gotta keep goin and not think about it woo oh hey alpha’s back let the fuckery commence

meme of hands shaking. gary and omalley, ‘ah shit fucking around in somebody’s brain had consequences’

any other scottish/irish folk feeling a bit conflicted about Stone in Ramshackle?

just watched it last night, and ik he doesn't have many lines but i was really unsure on his accent, like in some points it sounds scottish, other times irish, and sometimes he sounds vaguely american too?

if stone is meant to be irish or scottish too i also feel uncomfortable with him being like the only character to smoke or drink the entire time, that feels very stereotypical

genuinely, as a scot, i was excited when i thought i recognised a scottish accent, not something yiu see often, but again as a scot i cant tell if he's scottish or not

really confusing and frustrating

[hostilemuppet]

i don't wanna say too much, to avoid spoilers i mean. but theres one scene where he goes WHAT and his voice cracks a a bit like a 14 y/o. he also takes off branch's shirt.

creek not beating the second puberty allegations i see

[howdyboh]

i have no idea if this is even true or a fake leak but anyway if Nico di Angelo's full name thing is true, it is written Niccolò with an accent on the O!

Also I don't get why they went with the double C version when his name is shortened to Nico but well. that's another story.
