#bc so much of this requires explanation

[ashlynbuggy]

alright friends, here it is! my dan and phil iceberg!

now i know there's some things that are missing here, but there were a few things that had to be cut simply because there's just SO MUCH lore and theories it's near impossible to get everything. if you think i missed something really big, let me know! and thank you guys for your help with this, I'd like to consider this a small phandom project with how much input yall had ❤️

[chipjrwibignaturals]

god i wish trans healthcare was just like. a fuckin casual thing. i wish i could go to my doc and be like ‘hey this is the result i want: what hormones & methods would be best to achieve it’ or even just like. ‘hey i wanna try this’. i wish that level of comfort on the topic and respect for bodily autonomy was just a thing instead of having to go so far in depth into diagnosis and full social transition and all that just to get Proper Medical Advice And Treatment

How does one get assigned as sam coded / dean coded ? Do I need a doctors note ? A psych evaluation perhaps ?

[wheelercore]

I think the funniest area in which people try to project Lonnies dynamic with Will and Jonathan onto Ted and Mike is guns. It's very antithetical to what we're shown on screen like Mike canonically jumps into action at the sound of gunshots and Ted canonically startles at fireworks and doesn't seem to like the sound very much. Literally no creativity here. Guards! Send them back to the drawing board!! Tell them to analyze the toys!!

I have so many more thoughts this is so so much less than 1/2. Broski. Big dislike

[grassbreads]

Help me it's 2023 and I cannot stop thinking about classpects

[hotvintagepoll]

last poll of the quarterfinals!

Gene Wilder (Bonnie and Clyde, The Producers)—Gene Wilder's first starring role was a pathetic little guy who was lured into committing crimes and panicked about it, then continued committing the same crimes in prison!

Peter Lorre (The Maltese Falcon, Arsenic and Old Lace, Casablanca)—to me he DEFINES scrungle hes the first person i think of every time the term comes up! i want to fold him up like a paper accordion and put him in my pocket. guy that spawned a million voice artists and impersonators. they made a ghost version of him for halloween cereal staple boo berry. bewitched by his nervous mania and tooth gap <3 (for the purposes of propaganda im linking a photo from his extremely short appearance in muscle beach party bc ive been obsessed w it for years and i couldnt find any video for it :/ anyway imagine youre frankie avalon spending the whole movie battling a bodybuilder faction thats taking over your beach and your girl and then you find out this fucking guy is their mastermind mystery leader and hes stronger than all the bodybuilders combined. like Huh. What.)

These are the the quarterfinals for the scrungly little guy contest. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. If you’re confused on what a scrungle is, or any of the rules of the contest, click here.

[additional submitted propaganda + scrungly videos under the cut]

Gene:

"Excellently scrungly, even in his debut film. And the Producers requires no explanation. Big this energy":

Peter:

he's pretty much the archetype of the scrungly little guy. the blueprint. the example by which all other scrungly little guys are judged

The entire point of his iconic role in Casablanca (apart from introducing the central plot mcguffin) was to be LITTLE and SCRUNGLY to make Bogie look even cooler. And Maggot in Corpse Bride - the littlest scrungliest guy in that film - was a parody of him.

Between his big eyes, wheezy laugh, short stature, and expressive faces, Peter Lorre achieved icon status as the scrungliest, littlest guy in Hollywood. His scrungly little guy energy was often contrasted with the more typical masculinity of the leading man, but whether this contrast was meant to make him seem especially sinister, comedic, or pathetic, it always left an unforgettable impression!

The perfect sniveling character actor, “scrungly” is the first word that comes to mind when I think of him.

I'm sure somebody else has already submitted him (if not then ???) but he's a cute kind of scrungly little guy. He's got a distinctive nasal voice with an accent that is instantly recognizable and often imitated. His later horror movies are so much fun, especially when he's playing off of Vincent Price. He's so good at being unhinged, creepy, or manic, but also pathetic and sympathetic.

Classic scrungly hollywood golden age little guy who was friends with Humphrey Bogart and still played some of the wettest most sniveling characters ever committed to celluloid (complimentary) there is a deep despair and darkness in many of his characters that enhances his scrungly

To be clear, I am one of those people who will argue that Lorre is one of the most underrated film actors, but the POINT is that he's also just a scrungly delight. A delightfully pocket-sized man. Somehow endearing even when he is being actively amoral (see esp. Casablanca. "I found myself much more reasonable!") The faces he makes while doing the Russian cossack dance with a butter knife between his teeth in Silk Stockings make me laugh just thinking about them.

Wikipedia described his typical characters as "timidly devious", lots of weird little villains and evil sidekicks that are pretty horrifying but still manage to be sort of pathetic and the very definition of "poor little meow meow". His look and voice and mannerisms are so iconic they're still imitated

Cartoons for the next century have and will continue to include Peter Lorre-esque characters when needed to up the scrunge factor (see Bugs Bunny and so many more).

Youtube link for characters inspired by Lorre [editor's note: I'm not actually sure how many of these characters are directly, verifiably influenced by Peter Lorre, so take with a grain of salt. tw for suicide depiction.]

I think Arsenic and Old Lace is his quintessential "scrungly" performance. He's so put-upon and tired...all he wants is sleep and some schnapps! I love the way his shoulders fall slowly when he thinks he's caught (he looks like a sad puppy!), only to gleefully sprint out the door when he realizes how dumb those police officers are.

It came fast— the realization.

Your laptops camera light turned on randomly one day, the white light tiny yet glaringly obvious.

You squint your eyes and wondered, what the fuck?

The only times the light turns on is when you’re taking a test that requires a webcam or if you’re on the app, yet neither of those things were true at the time.

You weren’t too weary but the thought of someone hacking into the cameras of your devices has crossed your mind a few times.

So, you went to the hardware store to get some answers.

The guy hums in thought and checks some stuff on your laptop before scribbling something down on a sticky note.

“So, I can’t see much activity on my end. It’s probably just some manual stuff, minor bugs that need to be cleared out.”

He slides the paper to you.

“But, if you go to this address or call these numbers; they may be of more service and be able to tell you what’s really going on.”

You look down and see something totally different from his explanation. It makes your heart drop out of your ass.

Don’t panic! You’ve been hacked and there’s a chance of audio being picked up as well. Remain calm and go to your local police station. Stay at another address in case of potential threat.

You had an idea that would yield better results than what the police would have done.

Peter side-eyes your laptop with skepticism, his jaw clenched and lips puckered to the side in thought.

You’ve never seen him this mad before.

If he were animated, you’re sure he would’ve exploded 3 times now and would still have heat fumes above his head.

You nervously blink and fiddle with your rings, growing a bit anxious at his silence.

“Who’ve you come into recent contact with?” His voice hoarsely drops like a needle on a record.

You clear your throat. “You, Gwen, my dad… I met with Harry for lunch earlier this week, and that’s it.”

He nods coolly, trying to keep a levelheaded look.

“You’re sure that’s it? No one from work seems suspect?”

You think about this calmly, intently. You focus on remembering anyone who’d said or did something that made you think twice about it, no matter how harmless the subject may have been at the time.

You do remember something, rather someone.

“Umm… there’s this guy at work, Benjamin. He works on a different floor than me and he asked me out to dinner once.”

Peter’s blood runs cold. “Go on.”

“It was a few months into our relationship and he asked if he could take me out to dinner. I said no and that I have a boyfriend and he pointed out that he never mentioned it being a date.”

“So?”

Peter had a feeling he knew where this was going but for your sake, he wanted it to be untrue so badly.

“I just awkwardly laughed it off and said, ‘Maybe another time.’ since you were expecting me home.”

He sighs heavily and runs a hand through his hair.

“His expression changed for a split second, like he was annoyed or upset. Then he just politely smiled and walked away.”

Peter nods, already knowing.

“Do… do you think it’s him?”

You want to dismiss the idea because he seemed nice. But maybe that’s never enough.

“Yup.” He responds, not missing a beat.

“But we haven’t spoken since then.”

“Y/n, he’s the only one with a possible motive. He asked you out, you said no. Now he’s doing whatever he can to keep seeing you without you knowing and getting in his way.”

Without you getting in his way.

Benjamin resorts to stalking you because that’s the only way he gets what he wants without you denying his advances?

It makes you feel small. So small.

Why would he do that?

You were polite when you didn’t have to be. You saw him as a friend so why couldn’t he give you the same courtesy? He can’t just take no for an answer?

Peter can see you spiraling. He sees that distant look in your eyes when you’re thoughts run at a hundreds miles per minute.

He grips your hand on your thigh and interlocks his fingers with yours.

“Hey, hey, no. Don’t do that.” He softly calls out to you.

You subconsciously hum but he holds you face in his soft yet calloused hands.

“Don't go somewhere I can’t follow.” He tilts your head up to meet his gaze. “Stay here with me.”

You deeply exhale and rub your thumbs up and down his wrists, your forehead coming down on to his.

It's when the tears fill your eyes that he kisses the closed eyelids and hugs you so tight, like you’ll fall into pieces.

“I'll make it right." He whispers the quiet vow into your hairline. "I promise.”

You know he will and that's part of the reason you cry.

You've never seen Peter angry but it's personal this time, you don't know what'll happen and you don't know how to feel.

Should you be nervous? Happy? You're scared but the thought of knowing someone out there is willing to take advantage of people like you will be taken care of makes you less afraid.

Maybe Benjamin Pointdexter deserves what's coming to him.

“We've all gathered here tonight because Benjamin Pointdexter must die.”

“Okay, so that was not mentioned in the briefing. Like, at all.” The lawyer in Matthew immediately objects.

“Kid's right, Red.” And of course, it's overruled by Frank Castle.

The hardened man views the picture frame on top of the shelf above the chimney, casing the precious image inside: your gorgeous smile and Peter not-so-nonchalantly admiring it.

“You know he is.” His gruff voice softens a tad as he thinks about you.

You’re like a daughter to him. He believes his Lisa would love you and be just like you.

Frank clears his throat and thoughts away, forcing himself to come back to reality.

“Don't encourage him.” The Catholic man sighs and asks, “Why are we really here, Peter?”.

“I just gave you my thesis statement.” Peter doubles down.

“I’m not going to be able to help if I don’t know the whole story.”

Matthew insists but Peter isn’t having it.

“Alright, you really wanna know? Benjamin Pointdexter was stalking Y/n through her computer monitor. So now, I’m gonna kill him.”

Frank isn’t shy about killing but even he has to admit that maybe the idea is a bit of an overkill.

“How about maybe paralyzing him from the neck down momentarily, and then dumping him in front of the police station?”

Matthew and Peter both look like they've just heard the Frank Castle suggest a non-graphic, non-murderous idea.

“Wow.” Matthew scoffs, a half-smile on his face.

Frank shakes his head and look off to the side. “Yeah, yeah alright.”

Peter calms down and takes the idea into careful consideration.

Everyone loves Spider-Man and if he says that guy’s a stalking criminal, then that guy's a fucking predator. His word is kind of law around here.

He nods. “Alright, yeah. I'm fine with that.”

Matt clears his throat and asks for the game-plan but Peter insists to leave that up to him.

“I got it all figured out, thanks guys.”

Matthew didn't think Peter had it in him to be level headed about this but he's impressed with the young man's honesty.

The Devil of Hell's Kitchen has learned a thing or two about evil and it's that when necessary, must die. To kill or not to kill is simply the matter of principle and one he'll always evade if he can help it.

“I care about her, too. She's a dear friend but she needs you now more than ever.”

Matt knows when someone is lying but he needs to know. He needs to be sure.

Killing is a slippery slope not many get to see the bottom of.

“I know.”

It doesn't take a lie detector test to know Peter's telling the truth, even Frank knew from the organized look on his face.

“Be careful, Peter.”

Frank in dad-mode is always an endearing sight to see and Peter appreciates it.

“Will do, old man.”

Peter goes out that same night, leaving Frank and Matthew guarding you in your apartment.

If there's anyone you and your boyfriend can unanimously agree on trusting after Spider-Man, it's The Punisher and the Devil of Hell's Kitchen.

You're fast asleep in bed, the effects of taking a tylenol kicked your headaches ass hard.

Peter lingers by the doorway, adoring the sleeping beauty in her bed.

He wishes for it to always be like this; you; alive and well-taken care of by him; a strong man who knows his limits and understands what he has to do to be the protector everyone relies on.

It will be, he thinks before donning the mask and taking off into the night and being the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man he was born to be.

Varian headcannons

He/they baddie

Has lots of burn scars from experiments

Has scars on his wrists from handcuffs. For this reason he never takes off his gloves unless he's alone or with someone he trusts.

Trust issues. This kid was ignored by pretty much everyone when he needed them most, it's gotta have an effect on his ability to have healthy relationships (they say, almost like they're not speaking from experience)

Angry and Catalina were the first friends he had that were vaguely around his age. The vat7k gang (- yong) were the first friends he had actually within a year of his age (I hc angry as 12 and catalina as 14 in season 3. the vat7k gangs ages are again my personal hcs: Nuru as 17 turning 18, Hugo as 19 and Yong as 14).

Used to love the snow and rain and winter because it meant hot cocoa and time with his dad. The blizzard ruined a lot of things for him, including the snow.

Sensory issues galore (no I'm not projecting wdym)

Sh scars BC boy hates himself for everything he's done and blames himself for everything that went wrong

Whipping scars from prison. Again based off a HC of mine where they put him in maximum security and treated him like a regular major prisoner (including fun perks like interrogation, torture, starvation and whipping) until his old cellmate attacked him pretty badly so they threw him into the cell with Andrew. (Which was no better. Seriously which fricking ass had the oh so intelligent brainwave to put him in with Andrew. That's why I created this HC to at least try to give it a rational explanation)

Frostbite scars. You're telling me that a kid in a winter coat travelling the carriage worthy distance from old Corona to the castle through a blizzard literally described as a divine death trap TWICE made it out unscathed? No way!

Looks perpetually like a 12 yer old, much to his annoyance and to the amusement of Eugene.

Autism and ADHD. Look at him. Just look. Especially at the beginning of that episode where he gets kidnapped.

Also: PTSD, anxiety, depression, and BPD. Yes I'm projecting but also. Varians anxiety is pretty much canon ATP. You can see it in most of his episodes pre and post villain arc. PTSD because even in be very afraid, which happens around 2 years after his dad was trapped in amber, he is still very affected by it. Depression and low self esteem, he's miserable about everything that's happened and that's kind of ruined his life and he hates himself for it. Little canon evidence but feels right. BPD- much of Varians character, especially early on, is built around seeking affirmation. When he is repeatedly denied it, his emotions overcome him and he can't hold it anymore and breaks down. Also I see him as very emotional and logical at the same time so he has mood swings out of his control and is horrified at himself because he knows they aren't rational but he can't control them. Totally not projecting. Again not much canon evidence but great for angst and projecting purposes.

Since I'm projecting here I might as well project my artstyle on him. Sketchy, done with a pen or pencil and one random colour on the back of pretty much anything. Actually pays attention to lighting and tone on the rare occasion it is required. Very good at making random scribbles look like a perfect replica of something he's seen before. Good for scientific drawing and sketches. Terrible for fully finished works. Unlike me he is very good at art and makes my weird artstyle look good.

POTS. No real reason, just I can make characters physically disabled in headcannons and I want to use that power. Also varigo fluff potential.

Reads too much

Chronic loneliness from having no one to talk to (I'm projecting too fcking much and I know it)

Insomniac and won't admit it. Has passed out plentiful times in his lab and the most random places ever from pure exhaustion. This got worse during the villain arc because Quirin wasn't there to drag his sleepy ass to bed. Hugo worries.a (no it isn't an ungodly hour in the morning when I'm typing this wdym).

Reconnects with Cass post canon.

Has nightmares about his dad, sots, prison or Andrew regularly and needs either his dad, Eugene and later Hugo to stay with him after.

Has a serious sense of ✨style✨

Biromantic and asexual. He does not escape my giant aspec ray.

Begged his dad for weeks to let him keep ruddiger, who wandered into his lab one day and soon enough became his "assistant". Quirin was rather displeased (DW he came around eventually guys).

We all know that Varian loves animals, but did you know that animals love Varian?

Very picky eater who has a bunch of allergies and often forgets to eat (y am I projecting sm here chat).

Very good at lying and manipulating and scheming, as seen in his villain arc, but his emotions and guilt and empathy get in the way most of the time. As he should tell Hugo in my hcs, "just because I can doesn't mean I enjoy doing it". (HC: Hugo knows Varian has some sort of criminal past but he doesn't know that he was his gay awakening, the alchemist).

Makes annoying household inventions.

sassy and overdramatic

Issues with authority

Shares some rather radical opinions with Hugo and Cass

Frustrated at Cass walking away scott free whilst he was stuck in prison for a year

Bottles up anger until it explodes at the worst possible moment

is NOT innocent.

Intense fear of disappointing people, especially those who wouldn't have a negative reaction, since "that just makes it worse".

Idealist that kept getting more and more frustrated and disillusioned over time.

There are more but this post is long enough as it is. Almost all of these are me projecting on Varian.

What are some of your Varian headcannons? I'd love to know. :)

Dichotomy of Fear

Click for quality!

So this requires some explanation. My girlfriend and I were having a typical conversation about characters from other fandoms, in this case WTNV, falling under TMA fears. Normal conversation for a TMA fan. Anyway, it started with noticing that Kevin could fall into multiple different entities (Eye, slaughter, corruption, stranger, spiral, etc) and we realized that Cecil and Kevin both weirdly work as half of the entirety of the spectrum of fear respectively, overlapping in their Eye alignment. Sooo I sketched this, visualizing their split alignment bc we thought it was a really cool concept. It turned out way better than expected, so I’m posting it.

It then spiraled from there into an au concept where Cecil and Kevin are physical manifestations of half of the spectrum of fear respectively, poured into the world and each representing two sides of the same coin. There’s much much more to it and l’ll happily ramble more about it if anyone wants to hear, but for now, have this.

There is now an explanation for this au’s premise here!

fawn's diary : entry OO1 ᥫ᭡ 𝑠𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑎𝑦 , 𝑛𝑜𝑣. 𝟹 , 𝟸𝟶𝟸𝟺

um new thing i wanna try out ,, here's a small little excerpt from a diary entry i did a while back (˶ > ₃ < ˶) ! heavy spoilers if you haven’t watched / read the aot ending yet !

i just finished rewatching aot and cannot stop thinking about Paths / the Founding Titan ( and just subjects of ymir in general T^T )

Paths is like a “version” of the plane of pure consciousness ( as verified by not only eren, but zeke and armin in where they talk about how they have all the time in the world in Paths, of how time exists non-linearly in the way it feels like centuries have passed while simultaneously feeling like no time has passed at all, where creation happens instantaneously because there is no past or future in Paths, where death/life doesn’t exist either, so on and so forth ) i put version in quotes because isayama’s explanation ( imo ) of Paths sliiiiiiiightly deviates and becomes just a smidgen of convoluted in terms of explanation n whatnot 

and eren’s conversation with armin via the Founding Titan where he basically takes them to all the sights armin wanted to see outside of the wall in mere milliseconds has wormed into my brain for like the past day ( bc i think it's such a stellar visual of how everything exists now , how it doesn't require any effort to experience anything at all like how he easily navigated them from fiery landscapes to the cold expanse of snowy mountain tops in the blink of an eye ) . where he confided in armin about the Founding Titan’s power , of how , again , time doesn’t exist in regards to the past and the future, so he basically made dina's pure titan eviscerate his mother all of those years ago during the breach of the wall in shiganshina . and it’s been like replaying in my mind over and over and over again bc i can’t stop seeing similarities between the Founding Titan to Self LMFAOOOOSDGSKGNF

i also am very taken by the visual representation of the tree-like materialization of The Coordinate that shows how every single subject of ymir comes from the singular point of ymir herself . and again my brain latched onto that imagery bc it's sooooooo similar to how i view Self in relation to manifestingﾉshifting . like regardless of how different things appear to be , every single thing around you ﾉ your dr self ﾉ the multitude of dr's you may have compared to this reality concept etc. etc. it's all stemmed from Self .

anyway, i forgot just how much i loved aot :’)) it was very fun rewatching it from the start to finish this past week !! i cried a bunch ૮꒰ྀི⸝ ⸝  ›  ᆺ ‹⸝ ⸝ ྀིა eren makes me really sad whenever i think abt him too much lol 

[phightingheadcanons]

screw it.

WORLDBUILDING/ACTUAL (as in, headcanons that have something to do with phighting, not saying the others weren't actual ones shfhfhfjfnkdjf anyway) PHIGHTING HCS!!!! EXPLODES

(one of them is taken from a fic of mine so if someone recognizes it uh yeag I was one of the authors please don't kill mep leas /silly)

- Phighters originally became one via an on-paper agreement that was really only implemented when Phighting first became a thing, which was (I believe) after the Faction War. It was essentially just some basic stuff you'd expect in a signed agreement, though nowadays, Phighters can become one by participating in unofficial Phights that usually take place in some of the smaller MAPs (Monetized Arena for PHIGHTING!), like the Iron Cafe one.

^ One of the main reasons for there being paperwork involved in the first place was so that the older generation would take it at least a little but more seriously. With the tense atmosphere the Faction War left behind, the Flipside (I forgot if it was actually them who started the whole Phighting thing. If not, well, consider it another headcanon ig lol) figured it'd be best to actually have something that can be used in court if anything outside of the general things that happen in Phights were to ever happen.

^ Yes this hc is also my personal explanation for there being extremely tight maps HAHSHDH– and also for the reason why the Iron Cafe had chairs and tables on the roofs of all places (they're up on the four corners, you'll see them). Oh yeah and also there are restrooms on the middle ground leading to the second floor. Just yk. Iron Cafe :3

- Scythe and Coil's trailers were video submissions (published by the Flipside) in the PHIGHTING! world, bc they're both outlaws and can't submit official forms to join via legitimate means. Of course, they ARE actual Phighters if they managed to join that way, just not super super official ones that joined because of the aforementioned on-paper agreement that has something to do with the factions. Coil and Scythe joining is completely up to fate for this one; if their trailers do well, the money raised by them will fund their first debut.

^ "What's a first debut????" WELL!! ANOTHER HC!! Phighters have to wear the same attire. Why? Dude, it's their uniform. In normal cases (aka the signed agreement), the Flipside would fund copies of them themselves, having to make five for both blue and red variants; in Coil and Scythe's case, however, it's a little different. Because there's nothing officially tying their name to the Flipside, as I said, their chances of joining are completely up to fate. If they manage to raise a crap-ton of bux from just the video submission/trailer alone, the money will be used to fund; a) the clothing copies; b) a new Respawn Anchor to allow Respawning (I'll explain that in a minute); and c) nothing! Any amount of extra bux is immediately handed over to the Phighter, unlike in the official agreement that requires some extra paperwork, so I suppose that's a plus.

- RESPAWN ANCHORS!! Wow, I know, I'm so good at these names (sorry mojang). Unlike the Spawn, these things are almost fully artificial, and you won't believe who made them. Yeah it was Medkit how'd you know. Anyway, Respawn Anchors—while the original creator is very much unknown to the rest of the Inpherno—are only exclusively made by Blackrock for the Flipside. Why? Money. Because of course.

^ The way they work is exactly how Medkit's crystal resurrects, except they're specifically tied to only one inphernal (why? Because Medkit's resurrection resurrects all allies). The crystal inside each Anchor is first teal—pure. Add your blood into the mix and it's tied to you now. Its resurrection radius isn't more of a radius, it's more like a ray of light.

^ All Phighters have three Anchors; one for the top of the Arena (facing downwards), one for the bottom (facing upwards), and the last one– well, it's where they actually spawn. They function via "line of sight," which is why they don't work outside of the Arena they're placed in. The one on top sees its Phighter dead, sends the signal to the one at the Spawn (takes a couple of seconds), and the one there Respawns its Phighter. The one at the bottom of the Arena is for when the Phighter died under something, like a roof.

^ Each costs 50k. Medkit originally wanted them to be on the cheaper side but whatever, he knows Blackrock doesn't care about him. He is secretly proud of his creation being super essential in Phights. No Subspace doesn't know he made them. He is glad he doesn't.

- Subspace once tried to take credit for the Respawn Anchors' creation in front of Medkit, trying to taunt him, but seeing the guy look like he was on the verge of laughing in his face made him stop doing that immediately. At this point that is the only interaction between Medkit actually finds hilarious. Oh the irony.

"OH YOU SURE AS HELL DID"

"THAT'S SO FIRE I LOVE THIS SM. ANY WORLDBUILDING HEADCANONS ARE ALWAYS WONDERFUL"

[sugarshackpeasant]

the wolf pack timeline makes no sense (and here’s me trying to make sense of it/fixing it)

Things to remember:

After bella meets emily for the first time, Charlie claims emily was scarred more than a year ago (i don’t have a copy of new moon right now but i think bella met emily in early march??)

According to the twilight illustrated guide, jared and paul had already phased when emily was scarred

Jared and paul were heavily involved in the immediate aftermath of emily’s accident

Before collin and brady, seth was the youngest to phase (he was 14)

In new moon, paul is stated to be roughly 16

Jared and paul are in the same grade and they were born in 1990 like jacob, embry, and quil

Paul is explicitly stated in the illustrated guide to have phased in 2006

2003:

AUGUST

the cullens move to forks

2004:

MAY

Early May: sam uley phases in his senior year

It’s not stated when sam phased but for the sake of the timeline i’ll place it at the end of the school year

Mid May: two weeks later, sam shifts back to human

JUNE

Early June: sam graduates high school

Late June: jared cameron phases

Smeyer loves to use the phrase “not long after” which doesn’t leave much wiggle room 🙄

So i think jared phasing like 5-6 weeks after sam phased back to human aligns with that

this would make jared around 14 which doesn’t make sense bc seth was supposed to be the youngest

But the illutsrated guide and jared’s involvement in emily’s accident requires him to be phased at this point in time

Also it’s stated that jared and sam were casual friends despite not being in the same grade (i doubt an 18 year old and a 14 year old were hanging out that much considering they’re not related) 

My proposition: let’s change jared’s age in new moon to 17-18, this would make him about 15-16 at this point in time which would flow better with canon 

AUGUST

Mid August: paul lahote phases

It’s implied that paul and jared had already phased when sam and leah broke up 

Smeyer says not too long after sam phased, jared and paul did too 🙄

However, paul is explicitly stated as roughly 16 in new moon and the illustrated guide says that he phased in 2006

But that’s not possible!! It’s the same issue with jared’s age, if paul is 14 when he phased then seth’s not the youngest but also if he phased in 2006 then he couldn’t have helped when emily had her accident

AND if he did phase in january 2006 then emily’s accident would have happened 2 months ago, which contradicts charlie’s statement of the accident occuring more than a year ago

AND how is paul phasing early january 2006 (bc he canonically phases before embry) shortly after sam phasing in 2004??

My proposition: change paul’s age in new moon to 17-18, which would make him about 15-16 when he first phased in 2004!!

Late August: emily visits and sam imprints on her, sam breaks up with leah

Smeyer says not long after sam shifted back to human, emily came to visit the clearwaters

However, she also says that was busy with school so she didn’t visit immediately after

So i think like 2-2 ½ months later makes sense, it should probably be closer together but i think there needs to be enough time between all these events

Emily’s age is also unclear so i think she would be in trade school/college or something atp but we’ll say she graduated about a year before sam (making her 19)

SEPTEMBER

Early September: jared imprints on kim

It’s said that kim sat next to jared in history class at school for a year and i think this makes sense if you consider how small the classes would be

so they sit next to each other sophomore year and then the first day of junior year they’re sitting next to each other again 

Honestly this is a minor fuckup for me but considering that all the phasing stuff is more important, i think i can accept my explanation

Late September: emily gets scarred

OCTOBER

Early October: emily tells leah about her and sam but leah already knows bc of how obvious it was post accident

Emily canonically waited until she was more fully recovered to tell leah about her relationship with sam (and it’s one of her regrets)

2005:

JANUARY

Mid January: bella arrives in Forks

JUNE

Early June: leah clearwater graduates high school

In new moon, bella claims that leah is a senior like her but a year older

But this just makes no sense and is completely irrelevant to the story??

Canon states that sam phased when he was a senior and leah was a junior, making leah a senior in the 2004-2005 school year (when bella was a junior)…

So unless she was held back a year or started late when she was a kid, it’s just not possible

My proposition: let’s make leah a senior and have her graduate in june 2005, making her 18 at this point in time

SEPTEMBER

Mid September: the cullens leave forks

2006:

JANUARY

Mid January: embry call phases (i think, i can’t remember if he phased mid or later january)

FEBRUARY

Late February: sam and emily get engaged, jacob black phases

When embry drives bella to emily’s for the first time it’s implied that their engagement is recent

Bella visits around march 11, leading me to believe that the engagement happened around late february/early march

MARCH

Early-Mid March: quil ateara phases

Quil is cited as the 6th person to phase (illustrated guide)

This kinda doesn’t make sense tho…

Bella was hanging around the pack and at emily’s house before leah and seth phased and quil wasn’t there!!

Maybe the pack was just keeping it a secret, you know he phases, after a couple of days he transforms back and then sam sends him straight home bc quil’s grandfather is on the secret? Ig no one told bella/no one wanted to tell her

Like this technically fits in the timeline but it just annoys me, it feels like an afterthought when smeyer could’ve just had him phase between late march-may

But it’s not a glaring issue that NEEDS fixing so i’ll let it slide

Mid March: leah clearwater phases, harry clearwater dies from a heart attack, seth clearwater phases

Late March: the cullens move back to forks

APRIL

Early April: brady fuller phases

It’s stated somewhere that brady phases shortly after leah and seth so we’ll just place him here

MAY

Early May: Collin Littlesea phases

It’s stated that collin phases sometime after leah and seth, which to me implies that he phased after brady

The order could probably be switched but i don’t think it’s a super pressing issue

You could make a decent explanation for why UFOs don't appear on cameras as much now that everyone has a camera. If you're an advanced alien species studying humanity who knows our technological timeline, and you're also kind of lazy, you could go "well it's the dark ages, they have no way to preserve our image, who cares about stealth". And you could keep that up basically until the mid-20th century, where you have to start caring a little, but not too much until like, a decade into the camcorder era. And that's why UFO photos became rarer: bc aliens started putting up their camouflage once the smartphone came 'round, and it's actually really annoying to them? There's so many switches to flip and they have to look at the SOP every time

Cryptids require no explanation. They're invisible to cameras. Obviously
