#characteristics from canon

[1908jmd]

Uno reverse😉

Thank you for the return ask- and I enjoyed reading people’s answers to the question, so will add mine now. Obviously it’s Blaine.

1) I always think of the first chat between Blaine and Kurt, and the insight to him then. It was obvious he’d also suffered at the hands of homophobes - prejudice and bullying, and the feeling that no one really cared. I think this shapes his personality, and if I write him, I always see him as someone who is willing to go out of his way to help those he loves and cares for, even if it’s hard for him. We see this with Kurt - especially in Prom Queen. That’s why I like to write and read fanfics that makes he’s caring nature apparent, as he’s never malicious or cruel to people.

2)One thing that fanon has changed a lot is Blaine’s actual abilities and ambition. I always remember the compliments he receives - Kurt describes his solos as breathtaking, Santana talk about his dream boat a Capella voice; Finn about his all round talent making him jealous and worried for his position; Sam talks of him as one of the good guys and charming, talented, clever and Tina about his all round brilliance (and perfect ass). When I write him he’s talented, high achieving, ambitious not some bumbling idiot who has to rely on Kurt to cook his meals and plan his day.

3) Fun. I like he’s fun to be around, he’s the piano maestro at parties, he’s the guy not afraid to join or lead any club, or openly serenade his boyfriend in a public place, or talk about the latest thing he’s read. I always like to make him fun when I write him.

Glad you enjoyed answering, those of you who did. I might expand sometime and write a Kurt, or Sam or Tina version!

The hardest part about selfshipping is convincing myself that it’s okay to interpret the character the way that I want, even if it isn’t canon-consistent. Sometimes it feels like I’m lying to myself in my belief that certain characters would feel love for me or treat me in ways I am comfortable with because it would be “out of character” for them, but there is absolutely no harm in that. It literally does not hurt anyone to interpret a character however you want & it’s only hurting you when you force yourself to adhere to characterizations that aren’t compliant with how you want to feel while indulging in that specific media.

I struggle with this a lot because I have some rougher F/Os, but if I want to believe that they’d be sweet with me, I can. It doesn’t hurt anybody to interpret a character however I want if the content I’m creating is for me anyway. It’s easier said than done, however, but I am doing my best to remind myself of that.

Nothing hurts me quite as much as reading perfect slowburn with compelling and deeply in character interactions that are swiftly replaced by some professional lemon doppelgangers during the smut and after 😔😔😔

hey just letting you know that I’m the person you wrote the 2 comments 🥲 btw I was wondering how you would describe the childhood of the jangbros? because the show didn’t did them really justice and I think your opinion will be really interesting 🙏

hi there, friend! so happy to see you again! sorry it took me a while to answer this. i've just been so busy haha

my thoughts on jangbros' childhood really depends on my mood 🙈 you're right that the show did them no justice at all - and a part of me is disappointed that two integral characters were left so underdeveloped; another part of me is actually delighted that that's the case since that means my ass can just jump in and fill the gaps as i please hehe MY canon now.

personally, i like to play around a lot with how they met, when they met, and how that would affect their dynamic/relationship. this is something you'd get to see in my next fics which, hopefully will be finished soon - i won't spoil anything now hehe 😉

if you want to stick close to canon, though. i like that they first met on a hunting trip. han seok said the gun scared him, which is most definitely a lie, though i like to think that he pretended to be scared for han seo's sake - a way to show, 'hey, we're so alike, right? you got nothing to be afraid of me for 🤓' han seo didn't know at all what was about to hit him rip. another thing that i also cling onto from canon is han seo's drug abuse. i wish they'd developed on it more than just a throwaway line and those callous reactions from cha young and vincenzo ;; i would've loved to know how he broke away from it - if he ever did at all. my personal hc is han seok's got him sober, mainly because he'd be the kind to think drug use is dirty, beneath them - ironic since he's making drugs that'd get people addicted smh - and well, how would han seo feels anything han seok does to him if he's doped out of his mind?

ahh but that's too far from their childhood now. another thing i'd love to know is the kids han seok murdered in his youth. was there another reasons beyond him not liking the look of them? my shipper brain has some ideas haha, perhaps they showed too much interest in han seo, or any interest at all. maybe han seo showed interest in them so han seok had to cut it right off at the bud, showed han seo that there could only one person han seo was allowed to look at. yandere!han seok, my beloved haha

i also like to think about han seok patching han seo up from the wounds he himself caught. them in the bathroom of their massive villa, han seo sitting on the sink and trying not to flinch at how rough hyungnim is being with his wounds. the same hands that hurt him now working to fix him up. the push and pull that han seo kept han seo coming back no matter how much han seok has hurt him. i think han seo would learn better as he grew up but still, his child's mind could only see how kind his hyungnim is being, makes him forget all the hurt.

there's also that period of time where han seok was in the US and han seo's all alone in Korea. did they keep contact? han seok has shown han seok with so little monitoring on han seo - which i thought was so bizarre considering han seo's han seok's fall guy. i like to imagine han seok as so clingy, the kind to text every day and micromanage han seo's every decision even with an ocean away from them. he had to have away to keep himself in his dongsaeng's psyche; so he wouldn't forget him. but if they didn't keep contact, then what would han seo be like during those years? would he have grown out of the abuse han seok inflicted on him? i like to think that he did - han seo grew up to be such a brat, rolling his eyes and making devil horns behind han seok's back; so maybe he just grew to be a little less afraid of han seok in those years apart than he would've had they stayed together.

anyways, this sure is all over the place haha. i'm not even sure i answered your question. i tend to ramble a lot when talking about these two. let me know if you want me to specify anything, or if you wanna know more about them. as i said, i'm always down to talk about these two losers 🥰

RAGH my own take on xeno designs

[celira]

ok but in a fandom where all the canon representation is so matter-of-fact and thus all the more wonderful for its de facto acceptance, where there's so many rich & varied fan depictions that still take representation into account,

every fucking time an artist doesn't bother to portray Isaac Tettares as of East Asian descent despite clearly painstakingly taking notes on every other tazmuir tumblr-framed appearance note under the sun INCLUDING Jeannemary, I WILL, in fact, continue throwing a bit of a fit

[swagging-back-to]

naur seriously can we talk about how allura was even like 'the lions were made to be piloted by you and you alone'referring to the fact they are the only five people in the entire multiverse to have pure quintessence corresponding to the colors oftheir lions....

if one paladin is MIA then that lion should be inactive, benched. you dont simply play musical chairs with the lions. if it waa that easy then ANYONE could be the paladins at ANY time and theres no reason for the human paladins to be there at all especially if they dont want to be. but no the human paladins are NEEDED or else keith and allura would have no problem with pidge leaving in the first two episodes. nor would they mind if lance went home. but they DO mind. they PREVENT pidge from leaving and they make lance believe going back to earth isnt an option at all--that it isnt even on their iternary.

So no. i refuse to acknowledge the lion switching as canon.

"we're all rooting for buddie" "everyone in the fandom wants buddie to happen"

be so for real right now 😭 no, not everyone in fandom wants that

[talaricula]

It's bitching hours but I do not get the appeal of fanfic where you could scrub off the serial numbers and a reader couldn't immediately tell which characters you're writing about

If the characters are functionally unrecognisable except for their names and one or two superficial characteristics, why are you writing fic and not original fiction

[nururu]

the thing that bothers me about Sanji fans is they'll be like "oh I love sanji so much" and then you mention any canon thing about him and they get so upset. what's the point of having such a dynamic character with so much intricate dimension and then not wanting to acknowledge any of that bc you're uncomfortable by the fact he is multi dimensional and not a perfect Mary sue

[muu-kun]

Speaking of fashion, I will eventually have the appropriate amount of time to dedicate myself to a proper attire headcanon post. For now, I only have examples for silhouettes pertaining to dresses gathered. Which at this point can ultimately be narrowed down in explanation as Muu holding preference for a bodice that does not require even just a modest breast size.

Although he does wear bralettes (which is not out of gender dysphoria or euphoria on any account actually. Instead, it is more so like a running joke with himself at this point due to the fact he's actually had an infatuation with wearing them since he was a sixteen year old boy that found a bra lying in the street) he doesn't do so with the intent of applying padding to them-- especially when considering the fact he has some minor gynaecomastia due to stubbornly persistent baby fat going on. He can deal with those, but he definitely doesn't want to even so much as imply he has "real breasts."

He also isn't one to gravitate towards those built around the necessity for breasts due to the fact that he does not wish for the attire adorning his body to appear as though something (or somethings) is missing. Which is also the given reason why even in his decision to wear what is considered women's underwear underneath the dresses similar to above, he does not engage in the act of tucking. Yes, that does come within treacherous territory per the fact that he is then advertising himself as a flamboyantly youthful individual with an occasionally visible (and not incredibly well endowed, mind you) genitalia outline in his attire. That's not even to mention the detectability of his disabilities on establishing conversation with him.

Beyond that, he's not too partial to much else. Length and material is otherwise irrelevant as long as he can freely move within it to accommodate an in-between active and sedentary lifestyle. He would also best appreciate those that are not overwhelming to the senses in one manner or another-- this includes itchiness, heaviness, lack of breathability, and so on. Textures usually aren't too worrisome to him, however, as he has been raiding the closet of his female friends (such as Hannah of @kannojo predominantly) for years, so by now he knows what he does and doesn't like with enough ease that even unexpectedly finding something is unappealing to him van be easily remedied without any fit.

The bottom line with all of this is while Muu strictly wears what is primarily marketed as women's clothing, he does not do so out of the desire to be a woman. In fact, he's asked that question within himself many times only to come up with the same conclusion each time: He is simply an aged up boy caught up in having to navigate too many things at once, therefore eccentricities intended to lighten his load have transpired. Being that 99% of abusers have been men throughout the years, and women his sanctuary from them, it became sensible at some point for him to cease one struggle for favor of mirroring his safety while he sources through another. Muu has no idea even how to be a person yet, let alone a gendered one.

That is also not to say he wishes to abolish entirely in favor of utilizing they/them pronouns. In fact, it still remains quite the opposite. At this time in his life, he's not looking to be othered more than he always has acquired for himself. Being gridlocked into a perpetual state of regression in his present has been isolating enough as is that he doesn't wish for more beyond that. It also has intriguingly been almost beneficial in keeping some of his identity centered, though, as being so interwoven with his inner teen provides connection with the perspective of character held back then.

When he was sixteen, he was very self assured in nearly all aspects in life until led to second guessing the bulk of them. Of those is one of which where he was well adamant that he was a boy with a preference for he/him pronouns to demonstrate that. And while he's been able to find appreciation for femininity that he'd have otherwise mocked in his youth, that is as far as it goes for the time being. Working beyond the semantics of that just isn't on the table at this time in his life.

Where he might go with it during Pride Month is still up to him, but, really, his focus is far more centered on fulfilling and answering other aspects of his person at this time. Generalized comfort and safety are of the utmost importance to his emotionally led manner of living. Once that is established, whether or not he opts for reintroducing what is considered men's attire back into his wardrobe is completely up in the air.
