i have such a love for characters who descend into madness or villainy out of deep, deep empathy. characters who fundamentally cannot cope with the cruel realities they find themselves in and blow up about it in spectacular fashion. fallen angel type characters with tears of outrage in their eyes. characters who break before they bend, and break so badly they splatter blood all over their noble ideals. every variation on it gets me so good

#getou suguru #kaneki ken #abyss twin #i know there are others who im not thinking of rn #feel free to reblog with more examples #aphelion.txt #tropes #WAIT I REMEMBERED MORE #jaina proudmoore #dimitri alexandre blaiddyd #phosphophyllite #i just spent like half an hour trying to find this on tv tropes but it must be. Too specific of a thing i have in mind bc #I just kept finding similar and related but too broad categories #despair event horizon. fallen hero. well intentioned extremist. etc etc etc #like specifically i'm talking about when the character's EMPATHY is the CRUX of the problem. sosooo crunchyjuicytasty #edit:#also just know that i am reading every tag on this post #and enthusiastically scribbling down the names i dont recognizr #so i can check out their series later #edit 2 wow this post blew up 🫡 godspeed fellow villain likers #the amount of people tagging this as 'me lmao' is concerning to me #wwx #how did i fucking forget this was also yllz era wwx

undiagnosed autism culture is getting super attached to a very weird and awkward character and then getting really personally upset when people mock them or call them creepy or a manchild or whatever and not understanding why it upsets you so much

#aphelion.txt #actuallyautistic #actually autistic #this was me with n from pokemon #and like usually i dont mind that much when ppl dislike a character i like #but the disdain i saw for him on the early '10s internet really really bothered me #then like 5 yrs later we figured out the autism and. lmao #ableism #n harmonia

our existence is far more important than we give it credit for. we live in the abstract. connected to the physical, we experience everything inside the realm of our mind. every aspect of our being resides in the abstract, yet we focus so immensely on the physical. we say it's meaningless. we ask the purpose of our existence at all. but the physical means nothing without us to experience it. without the self to experience it, who's to say it exists at all? who's to say the universe doesn't die the moment it is no longer able to be experienced? consciousness is what brings everything to life. the abstract we reside in, although in many ways uncontrollable, is still us. the universe has meaning because we give it meaning. the universe exists because we do. we are an important aspect to the universe. we are intertwined. without the physical, the abstract does not exist, and without the abstract, the physical does not exist. we coexist and both aspects work together to make the universe a whole.

#we are the observer to the observed #just some thoughts #i don't necessarily believe any of this but it is fun to think about #and it is a fun idea to play around with for stories #aphelion.txt #it's like the saying about the tree falling and whether or not it makes a sound #this wording may be confusing by the way because i have trouble getting my thoughts out #trying to explain it in detail would make this post way too long #no thanks
