Feeling some,,, weird things about my identity

I'm not sure if otherkin/dragonkin is the right word to use to talk about my draconic identity anymore, especially now that I've started to interact with more people who identify as nonhuman creatures who aren't part of the otherkin community.

I still 100% am a dragon, I always have been and that will never change, but I'm also starting to feel a lot less connected to the idea that I'm a literal dragon soul trapped in a human body, weather that be from a past life type of deal or a "parallel life"

I'm starting to feel it more as a weird extension of my gender identity that's been tightly woven up with my experience as an autistic person, with a sprinkling of kink in there. That doesn't make my draconinity any less valid than when I identified as otherkin, but just a bit different yknow?

Ive also been trying to not pathologize any of my experiences, so I guess instead of describing everything in 100% terms, Im just gonna start taking things as they come. I'm a human, and also a dragon, I don't need any more explanation (and boy does that make me feel a lot better)

It definitely helped that I started dating someone who is "just a bunny", it really opened my eyes to hear someone say "I identify as a bunny, that's who I am. I'm not otherkin, I didn't have a bunny past life or the soul of a bunny, I just. Am a bunny." maybe I'm "just a dragon"

I wont be changing this blog much, Ill just be shifting from using the word "kin" to using the word "alterhuman", as I believe that's a much more accurate way to describe who I am and what I feel. I'll still probably use the word "dragonkin" in posts and tags however, it's just the easiest way to describe a dragon alterhuman in one word

Does any other mythical creature type 'kin have a hard time finding their name? I feel like I am suppose to know or at least have an inkling of mine yet none seem to fit

Legit just taken to using the word "Dragon" after my chosen name to refer to my draconinity

Clean angel (liquid element)

🧼 Their variants are Caprine (pictured), Leonine, and Draconine. Their bodies are dense and spongy (which filters water), with gel cavities to secrete a soap-like substance. Their right side is for gentle cleaning, their left side is harsh.

🧼 Clean angels are famously ill-tempered to most, not trusting any other being to do as good a job as they can. They foam at the mouth when worked up, and this spreads to the gel cavities in an extreme mood.

🧼 Caprines tend to reside in ponds, Leonines prefer saltwater, and Draconines prefer flowing freshwater. Caprines tend to be the most docile of the 3 variants, usually living closest to towns and cities.

🧼 These angels bring balance to any environment- nothing should be so clean that it is barren of life, nor so dirty that it cannot sustain life. Angry as they can seem, they enjoy a hard day's work.

Note

I always assumed SMT II Set was a serpent because that's how he was depicted in the Digital Devil Story novels. Why he's a serpent there could come down to things like the Temple of Set or the depiction of his cult in the Conan the Barbarian movie. Why did Kaneko give him wings? This is highly speculative, but the silhouette for Seth's concept art kind of looks like it could have been adapted from Quetzalcoatl's sprite before becoming an NPC-only demon. The wings in particular look similar.

I honestly love the book illustration of Set on the satellite.

I feel like SMT2's is much different and unrelated to the Quetzalcoatl sprite, more draconine in its entirety.

If anything, Drake might be the more honest category for him--if it is indeed intended as a fringe interpretation. Vile was assigned to him later, under the assumption it was always meant to be the actual Egyptian Seth. But he's a plot device in SMT2 and was never assigned a race then. Nope, this is completely wrong, he's Vile in Akuma Daijiten:

The blurb talks about him in Egyptian terms. So I have no idea. Once again Seth's design pops up as a topic and again I just have to shrug.

Chapter 357 Thoughts

Fight Dynamics

The likes of you would make me relive the pain and misery of that day. I've always appreciated the touch of humanity that a lasting trauma from his backstory fight with All Might gave AFO, so I'm glad to see it back again.

That full page of Endeavor is fuckin' sick. I like it when the Todorokis breathe fire—it gives them a draconine quality that is extremely cool. Dabi's mouth gaping wide and spewing fire puts me strongly in mind of some ancient and terrible dracolich, and Endeavor's curl of spitting flame here has a similar quality.

The eye lasers are pretty fun also, though I feel like they raise the question much more prominently of exactly how prone to overheating Endeavor is that he can pull that move. Eyeballs are really sensitive, guys. Endeavor, don't boil your eyeballs!

God, the Endhawks shippers should never have let Hot Wings get taken from them as a ship name. Listen, has Hawks ever sent his feathers to burn into ash as they boost Dabi's speed and become his wings? I didn't think so.

As before, while my emotional investment in this fight is not high, I really am enjoying the physical dynamics of it. The mixed visuals of people who can freely maneuver in the air (Hawks and AFO), the people who are managing to stay aloft through means that require balance and coordination (Tokoyami and Endeavor), and the one who can't be airborne under their own power at all (Jirou) makes for a great sense of mingled weightlessness and gravity in the open sky. This panel is particularly good—look at the way Tokoyami's legs dangle!

I like that we can just assume that Hawks knew to call out a warning because his feathers likely picked up on AFO's vitals, and he doesn't have to scream that out as part of his warning or reflect on it in his head first. Much more organic than the similar moment in Chapter 355.

ENDEAVOR'S MONOLOGUE

My mistakes took form as Touya, leading to so many stolen futures. Dabi is Endeavor's monster, yes, yeeeeeeeees! Exactly my preferred read on the character.

The past never dies. Rage, resentment, and even penance are wound together toward the future. I like this, too. Endeavor's talking about himself, but in echoing Touya's words, he calls to mind the villains as well. Heroes can't keep just brushing their failures under the rug and looking away from them; villains are embodiments of failings both personal and systemic, and while they have their own agency, and have to account for the lives they've taken, the actions and inactions of those around them that led them to villainy also have to be reckoned with. The villains have their own rage and resentment that drives them toward their futures, and that can't just be erased.

The future is a path for the young. This, I'm of more mixed feelings on. The future is a path for everyone still living, not only the young. It's a very shonen manga sentiment, to be sure, and a worthy thing for a parent—and for Endeavor in particular!—to be thinking about, but as someone who likes a lot of the adult villains and also has a lot to say about Hero Society at large, I don't like the sentiment that only the young--young heroes and young villains alike--warrant this compassion. However, I don't think Endeavor's thoughts here are necessarily meant to be prescriptive—I'm reminded of that scene between All Might and Aizawa where the former expresses his feelings of uselessness, and Aizawa tells him that just him being there in peoples' lives does plenty of good. So adults have plenty to contribute, now and in the years ahead, but it suits Endeavor well in his atonement to view himself as largely an obstruction to be gotten out of the kids' way.

I'll win today and keep my eyes on Touya! Assuming Endeavor survives the next phase of this, I really can't wait to see the look on Dabi's face when he's told this. It's pretty much everything he's ever wanted, so what happens to him when he gets it? (My hope: like his father, he gets what he wanted and then has to process everything he's sacrificed to get there.)

KILLING AFO (REPEATING MISTAKES)

Picking up this topic from last week, here again, we have a hero's thought about killing and death interrupted by a twist from AFO. All Might said at Kamino that trying to kill the man was a mistake, and here we see the results of that. So again I have to wonder, did the authors of this battle plan talk about that backstory fight? Even if they think killing AFO is a fair moral action to take, simply from a practical standpoint, if they don't know how AFO survived getting his head pulped by All Might seven years ago, it seems actively foolish to risk killing him again here.

I would guess they found out about Ujiko and assumed he saved AFO (and they're probably right), so, already having Ujiko in custody, just resolved to be more fastidious with the body this time. Narratively speaking, though, no matter how careful they are, they're still repeating the mistake that is trying to kill AFO. I'm extremely curious as to whether that narrative theming will pay off, and the heroes will realize they can't keep trying to solve the problem AFO represents by murdering him, or if killing AFO is just meant to be this difficult hurdle the heroes have to figure out how to overcome, like some kind of demented logic puzzle, and when they finally do, it will be treated as a triumph rather than just the newest iteration of the same mistake.

For the same reason, I'm interested in the echo of the end of the High End fight here. That was framed as a big triumph on Endeavor's part, him overcoming the shadow of himself he recognized in Hood-chan, only for us to find out later that not only are High End Noumu sentient, but even among normal people, there are those who regard the outcome of that fight as being, "The Number 1 hero just killed someone." The High End was not Endeavor's ghost; he just projected that onto it. And it was very moving in the moment, but it was still a dehumanization with lasting consequences that showed up in the form of Ending and his threat to Natsuo's life.

Here, likewise, Endeavor gets this big dramatic moment of self-evaluation and resolve while holding the body of a villain he just killed to get said absolution—but was that really such a good idea? Perhaps not, it seems: as I said last week, it's unlikely we're going to see AFO get taken out in a way that clashes with the manga's overarching themes.

That said, I do feel for Jirou and Tokoyami here. Those two really brought their (1-)A-game, and if Endeavor had stopped at "only" maiming AFO rather than pushing him over the brink of death to whatever reset trigger he's got here, I think this combat would be over, and they would have been able to say they were instrumental in taking down the most infamous capital-V Villain in Japan's history. Yet another reason for the kids to start finding their own way, perhaps?

AFO'S REGENERATION

AFO coming in hot with the phoenix quirk, lol. I consider it possible that it's something he and Ujiko picked up from Touya during his coma years, but if that's so, I will need an explanation for how they could know about this but Ujiko could still be puzzled as to how Touya survived. Right now, the only angle I see on that is that his real question wasn't simply how Touya was still alive, but rather, how Touya was still alive in that state—how on Earth had the boy not immolated himself and regenerated yet; how was he still hanging on despite being in such tatters?? But that still kind of goes back to a lot of the issues with the Evil Orphanage backstory and what AFOUJi's actual goals were there, why they thought it was worth three years burning resources to keep Touya alive but then were just willing to let him escape without trying to recapture him because they thought he wouldn't survive much longer after that.

Given the above contradictions, I'd generally rather this be something different. And it probably is, else why on earth flash to Eri? And I'd love to see the bullets turn out to be actually relevant, though I have no earthly idea how bullets Ujiko didn't get his hands on until long after AFO's imprisonment in Tartarus could possibly be relevant to AFO's body now, since Ujiko was likewise in custody by the time AFO broke out. I guess Shigaraki probably did still have one or two of them left in his pocket from the Jakku fight after he pulled them out of the wreckage of Ujiko's lab? But I'm very curious what a single bullet designed only to destroy quirks could be refitted to regenerate AFO's body at a certain point without AFO's pet genius geneticist/biologist around to figure that out. I'm sure AFO knows some science after being Ujiko's patron/husbando for seventy years, but I'm skeptical that he had the knowledge and the equipment for something like this. Unless vestiges are so incredibly present and reliable a presence that AFO can use Ujiko's science knowledge just by virtue of having the old man's vestige in his brain, I guess?

AFO writing off his body because, presumably, his consciousness already has a foothold in Shigaraki's body is one of the things that irks me about the possession plot. That conflation of quirk and soul is so weird, and so distinct to the AFO/OFA plot while being so disconnected from the reality of the rest of the comic. A quirk is not a mind. Taking someone's quirk doesn't deprive them of their awareness; they don't shut down like an appliance that just got unplugged or a computer with the motherboard removed. Mirio is still Mirio; Ragdoll is still Ragdoll. A quirk carries an echo, a copy of sentience, but it's just a simulacrum; if Ragdoll were killed, she'd still be just as dead regardless of the whereabouts of Search. Nana is just as dead, regardless of the presence of Float in the tapestry that makes up One For All. It just makes no sense to me why AFO is content to let his own mind die just so his quirk can live on—sure, he might share senses and have a mental connection with it when it's in range, but the AFO vestige is its own independent actor at this point; if AFO's body dies, the consciousness that he's cultivated since the day of his birth is still going to die with it. I swear, it's like the series is staring down the barrel of the teleporter paradox and trying to bluff us into not noticing the gun. I hope that, if AFO does get killed, he has a moment of panic where he realizes all this.

That said, I am looking forward to a full reveal of AFO's appearance next time we come back to this stage of the combat—his hair and his eyes back, no more shadow covering up the upper half of his face, just, finally, getting to know what he actually looked like before the backstory fight.

ODDS & ENDS

I am very curious as to why AFO mentioned "sacrificial moments." Traditionally, the sacrifice play is to secure a victory for someone else, but even if the "someone else" is just his vestige in Shigaraki, e.g. another form of AFO himself, what relevance does his body dying and regenerating here have to that? And how can he call this moment a sacrifice when he fought against it to the end?

Re: whatever's going on in the sky that Deku's approaching, my first thought is, "Star & Stripes fighter pilot bros, maybe?" I don't know if they ever actually went back to the U.S. or not. It doesn't quite fit Yoichi's, "I have a bad feeling about this," but Yoichi is clearly reacting to AFO's body reviving; he's got no reason to have any feelings one way or the other about whatever Midoriya's coming up on—that'd be Shinomori's purview. However, getting supersonic jets to pick Midoriya up would be an extremely smart way to get him back to the fight with Shigaraki as quickly as possible without forcing him to fly well over 500 miles across open ocean and half of Japan's land mass to get there under his own power.

the freak show’s in town…

Im going to be trying something a little different this time listener so here me out. It’s been a while since I’ve had listeners so I’m trying to re-figure out my storytelling… -clears throat- you ever been to the fair listener? That wonderful place that comes to town now and again throughout the year… bringing games and smiles to anyone who enters its tents… you remember? Good. now keep that image in your mind. You’re going to get a chance to join the story this time…

October 6th, 1839

The smell of popcorn and Cotten candy fills the air as you check out each stall… a traveling fair had come to town, and you and your friends had run in the second they opened the gates. It was a welcome change to the grey, dreary countryside of your hometown… after tiring the usual games of bag toss, darts, and pinball, you and your friends head twords the large tent and the center of the fair… the main attraction… the freak show… the final freak show…

The freak show was filled with your standard humans at the time: 3ft men, burly women, children with dumbo ears, one kid was dubbed a “real murmaid” for their fused together legs, and various other mistreated people considered “freaks” at the time… that was until… “and for our final act! The “Gargoyle Fae!” The showmen began bringing out cages to show to the crowd. Oh… this was different…They looked human… yet not… they were covered in blue scales from the the base of their ivory horns to the stumps where legs should be … their curly hair had an ethereal fluffyness that almost made it look like they were made out of clouds… they had large draconinic wings portruding from their backs that beat strong and sure within their cages… their eyes had no pupils or whites, just a sunshine yellow glow that warned of an ancient power, and wisdom beyond any number of human lifetimes… the crowd gasped in horror, for they had never seen anything beyond their limited perception of reality.

The ringmaster smiled ever wider at the response of the audience “that’s right folks! Straight from Regno dei Cieli! These once mighty warriors helped the kings and queens of the Regno conquer the world as we know it before it’s collapse in 1629!” you weren’t so sure… it looked like they could break those flimsy rusted iron bars and fly out whenever they like…if anything, it looked like… they were waiting for something… the crowd was already screaming hateful words, throwing food, and mocking the fae trapped in the cage… and yet the fae did nothing, merely waiting for that unknown something… and then it happened… one of the fae spoke up “our contract is finally up” The crowd had gone silent from confusion. the ringleaders smile disappeared, his face filling with fear. “w-what do you mean?” It was the fae’s turn to smile “our contract is up, the last of the Regno bloodline has died off and now we no longer bound to the rules of our diplomatic contract of loyalty to you or anyone else.” The ringleader froze from fear for a moment before trying to run out of the tent, but the fae had already broken out of their cage and begun pileing out to rip open everyone who mocked them for so long. At last they were free! You were paralyzed, only able to watch as blood splattered, splashed, and flowed down and into the wooden seats and around the tent… you watched as throats were ripped open, tents were shredded, and food was gorged upon like a pack of feral animals who haven’t eaten in months… you figure this may be true, as you doubted that the circus treated their stars like anything more than animals…

and then you were home…

freak shows were officially banned a year after in 1840… the conditions the “freaks” were kept in were cruel and unusual, and eventually deemed inhumane… but people also wanted to make sure the more… exciting attractions… were kept out of the public eye…

So how was that? Surely it’s a lot more interesting to see the story firsthand than it is to merely hear me read my notes to you right? Well, I cannot hear you at the moment but, I hope you enjoyed it…

thanks for tuning in…
