ANGIE MY BELOVED

this guy.....i have given him the most amount of trauma At The Start. he's already gone (and is still going thru shit) and b/c he's already had it tough he's gonna end up being the wisest person by the end of the story most likely (in his own way)

fuckin this guy's a tech nerd and if i knew more abt computers n junk i would be more specific but thats rlly. all i can say. he makes funny programs, he can code, he makes robots, aaalll that shit!!

fun fact: angie is a relatively new character that ive created for two! he (along w/ness) were not in the original story, but.....kat had like....NO friends and w/all the shit she was gonna go thru she really needed them lol. it also didn't make sense w/her character ta have her have no friends?? at that point in time i was revamping kat's personality cuz i realized she was too much Like Me and I didn't wanna create a self insert lol 😅

ANYWAYS- angie's got the worst of life w/in the last 2ish years, dead dad, depression caused from dead dad, struggling family b/c of the sudden loss of income (at this point in the story his family is more stable, but that's the reason he originally started working at kat's parent's cafe), anger issues caused by depression from dead dad, and on toppa all that, he's in honors classes!! man's has got it tough!!

he's also the eldest sibling in his houshold n has got 5 siblings!! (here's a wip of them i never finished. this would've been his fam 2 yrs ago)

him n the sister he's smirking at are at eachother's throats a lot lol. she's sorta similar ta ness but a lot more blunt. they shoulder the burden of being the eldest, sort of a team but not really? angie takes the brunt of the burden. eldest siblings (me) understand.

he's got ta deal w/being held ta such a high standard n he's constantly under pressure ta succeed, ta do great ta make his family proud, n now that his dad is dead he feels like he owes it ta him ta do well by him.

beyond the sad stuff he had a major caffine addiction that his mother put a stop ta. he had a habit of procrastinating and then pulling coffee fueled all nighters, except now that he cant have coffee anymore he supplements it w/soda (his mother will NOT allow energy drinks he sneaks some anyways tho. ((his mother is not happy abt him drinking sodie)))

he's a meme king and irl shitposter and a very Big Boi (6ft!) he's got a new york accent as well!

fun fact numero dos: angie is one of the several characters who i am completely unsure of their orientation. i feel like he could be the queerest person on the planet and yet also be the straightest most cis-dude ever. idk ik he likes girls thats the most ive come up w/so far.

he loves his friends so much dude!! they've helped him thru so much and he's done so much dumb shit w/them (like The Bruisehouse, of which the trio of kat, angie, n ness is named after. they're still quite famous from what they did in elementary school). honestly he just wants ta relax. you can see that reflected in his clothing choices (yk besides being a sans kinnie n liking utdr) he's one of those kids in middle school who dresses in shorts n short sleeves no matter the weather n is like, "im not cold"

him n kat met first and were bffs b4 they met ness n she was added inta the group, so they're a bit closer in that aspect!

[stillwooozy]

OH THIS IS INTERESTING BTW

I was thinking about the psychology of “kinning” -> I think some interesting discussions can be had. Lets make a zoom meeting of otherkin to discuss the scientific/psychological implications of kinning. jk.... or not? ;) man, psychology is a shitshow, why not have an ~academic conversation~ around this social phenomenon that has kept evolving over the past 20-30 yrs since the termanology has been coined alongside the internet.

Anyways, I was watching this movie called Underdog, a kid dog movie that came out when I was like 7 & I watched it compulsively for a while. Anyways I was watching it w/ my youngest brother cuz if we’re watching a movie for a 6yr old it will be one I enjoy.

There was some scene where the dog gets injected w/ a syringe/needle of shining blue fluid and gets super powers. You see where I’m getting at.... (Eren Yeager kinnie here, unfortunately)

I probably watched this movie DOZENS of times between 7-8 years old. I loved it. It was etched deep into my brain. Then I forgot all about it as one does with their obsessions as a 7 yr old. One day I was done with it, and I probably haven’t conciously thought of the movie again up until this point. But ofc, you don’t “forget” - the memories just weren’t accessible because why think of a movie you stopped caring about?

Then... I’m suddenly 13 yrs old and watching/reading AoT. And Eren gets injected w/ this syringe, which gives him powers. I feel super ~connected~ to the scene, all I can chalk the experience up to is extreme “deja vu” , and this is already a character I’ve latched onto, plus we share surface level similarities.

So down the line. When I “officially” admit “I kin” Eren... a lot of emphasis is always placed on the “deja vu-ness” of kin “memories” and our first experience w/ our “canon” ....

But... What is deja vu really? I mean I’m not discrediting peoples spiritual experience, but come on. You can take a nonjudgemental & validating scientific approach as well. And I’m firmly in the camp that kinning is not necesarrily BAD for people, but it would be safe to say thats it highly correlated w/ mental illness? But correlation isnt causation. I’d say most ppl that are kin fictional characters are LGBT+ too, & depression/anxiety/etc is obviously much higher within that population for a variety of complex social reasons. So yeah. Correlation does not equal causation. But its important to note? Also I’d jump the gun and say fantasty-prone ppl are more likely to “kin” too.

But that’s a pretty fair psychoanalytic perspective to fickin - right? When a person, who is fantasy-prone or prone to utilizing escapist coping techniques or possibly have “identity issues”, discovers a character that not only they share “surface level similiarties” (not just appearance, but could be personality/morality too) and that also triggers intense “deja vu” -> boom, you have a kinnie. Now, I believe that “deja vu” is more like the “tip of the tongue” pheneomena than some otherwordly experience, but that’s my opinion.

I mean, it makes sense. Scenery/situations/events don’t go away in memory, for all we know long term memory is forever, but those memories are just not accessible for a variety of factors. So like, I read the scene of Eren being injected and my brain is like “oh man, i’ve 100% seen this before. I’ve been here. This is so trippy.” And for some reason, that’s a nicer story for my brain rather than to pull some obscure pieces of media and personal memories up from my subconcious and connect them together.

Also. Archetypes and shit. There really are no fully unique thoughts/ideas - whatever that quote is Im roughly paraphrasing. I’m not a huge Jungian but... the premise of archetypes makes sense. Cultures since the dawn of time have been coming up with the “same stories and creatures”, such as like the hero’s arc and dragons being universal. At the end of the day we’re simply an animal, a complex biological organism that is constrained to our tiny reality of this planet/reality. ‘Kinning could just be people relating to the symbolism of some character to such an extent that they see no distinction between themselves and said character. Because why not?
