I would like to officially welcome Eustace Winner to the "My Name Is A Cruel Joke My Paternal Figure Played On Me" club

[Image Description: A digital drawing of Eustace Winner from Ace Attorney and Hunter from The Owl House in a handshake, against a purple background. Both are looking towards the camera as if they are taking a picture and both have a look of concern on their faces. Eustace’s expression is significantly more distressed than Hunter’s.

so. uh. surprising thing about jason, who might be one of the most inconsistently written characters ever, is the fact that one trait about him has remained constant throughout different eras, reboots and even an elseworld. no, it's not his thighs tho that would be a very good guess.

it's his suicidal ideation. yeah.

[here's me screaming about the fact that he feels like a phantom that has outlived its purpose of haunting in detail if you're interested]

Welcome to Yard Week, a week dedicated to creating fan content revolving around the pod! Yard Week will take place from July 29th through August 4th, with daily prompts for gifmakers, artists, writers, or anyone else who feels inspired by the prompts! Everyone is welcome to participate so long as their creation includes at least one member of the pod. This is a relaxed event designed just to promote creating cool shit so if you only want to do certain days or need to post late, that's totally fine! If you post on tumblr, feel free to tag your post with #yardweek so other people can find the cool stuff you make and if you're a writer you can add it to the ao3 collection.

This event is open to anyone but I ask that if you post content on reddit/a public twitter account you don't say anything that can link it back to me just because I like my little private corner of the internet.

hi!! odd request could you explain why komahina isnt toxic

IVE BEEN MEANING TO MAKE A POST ABOUT THIS ANON !!!! u read my mind ….. so the reason why i dont consider komahina to be true and real toxic yaoi is because theyre intended to be mutually healing for each other.

their main, striking similarity is their upholding of danganronpa’s harmful societal values on talent. a theme throughout their interactions is komaeda explicitly stating a subconscious belief hajime has and then hajime denying that there’s any similarities in their belief system — everything komaeda says about the inferiority of the talentless is something hajime has always believed, just in a less self aware way. they both end up essentially killing themselves (komaeda in a more literal manner, hajime with the kamukura project) to become something bigger, something worth being called the ultimate hope, because they believe their talent status gives their life no meaning and they feel they have to “make up” for it. theyve always been similar; one sees the other in the things he hates about himself.

this is why, when they fall in love, it’s so groundbreaking for their respective arcs. in realizing the similarities in their belief system, hajime becomes more self aware about how stupid his insecurities are. hajime is able to break komaedas worldview by being talentless and inspiring hope/being an equal to his talented peers from 77b, and this makes komaeda realize that, because they are so similar, HE can do that too (side note makoto does this first when he kills junko, but komaeda knows hajime personally/saw hajimes development play out firsthand so its more effective). they feed into each other’s development and are able to grow from it.

they’re not really framed with much toxicity, and you can especially see this with allllll the visual parallels theyre given by the end of the anime. the juxtaposition of hajime grabbing komaedas junko arm to help him out of the pod and hajime grabbing komaedas prosthetic arm to help him onto the boat (paired with the line “let’s set off, in the name of hope”) symbolizes how interconnected hajime is to komaeda’s arc — his journey from old arm to new arm, from despair to hope to future. (and then theres the scene where hajime ditches ghost chiaki for komaeda too. and u see them eating with each other in the credits.) if they were intended to be toxic, they wouldnt have ended on that note.

and THENNNN theres also the fact that hajime’s really the only person capable of loving komaeda, in the beginning. hajime cant get struck down by komaedas luck, because hajimes the only one with ult luck powerful enough to counter komaedas. their lucks cancelling each other out is a concept stressed by the anime with the kamukoma gun scene. he’s also the only person with the guts to put in the effort to UNDERSTAND komaeda, a concept stressed in komaedas FTEs. hes the first person that physically can, and the first person thats made the effort. this is groundbreaking for komaeda.

theyre not toxic, they just go through a little angst period that ends up being resolved in the end. hajimes confusion towards komaeda and komaedas confusion towards hajime was necessary, they HAD to figure each other out because in doing that they learn something about THEMSELVES. that process comes with some angsting that is often mistaken for toxicity. of course they cant start dating mid killing game, THAT would have be pretty toxic, because a killing game is not a breeding ground for romance. this is why komahina never canonically starts dating - the time frame doesnt cover enough time for that. but they get two love confessions and the whole first fte is explicitly romantic.

dead of night best time to post driver headcanons

- mute. maybe signs asl. ya thats cool

- eyes become glassy and reflective, like a cat's, or rather headlights (faint glow?? idk)

- breathing synchronized with engine? or other part? when the car is on no wait that pulsing blue remnant shit. yes

- driving appears uncanny to others (too fluid, quick reaction time, etc) (car is an extension of drivers self)

> definitely gives off uncanny vibes in general. maybe not immediately noticeable but becomes apparent after a while.

- has a perfect internal compass to the car (+ in general? maybe) and can sense when the car is in danger (basically canon but i like to think its internal instincts, not the mechanic eyes hud)

- pain is shared between driver & car. when the car gets hurt the driver feels an equivalent (+ maybe vice versa?)

- lots of scars and burns from early days before they had proper equipment. later on wears so many protective layers theyre more or less unrecognizable

- definitely one hundred percent becomes a folk tale or legend of sorts within the zone after the events in the game. some believe some dont. maybe rarely encounters arda scientists or other breachers and gives them a ride? (if theres room in between the machinery LMFAO)

> if the topic gets brought up francis vehemently tries to convince non believers the driver is real. does he succeed? probably not.

> tobias did too

- starts referring to themself more commonly as driver/the driver in favor of their original name, unless theres a good reason not to. its who they are now

- maybe develops a faint intuition for the zone (can sense storms moments before the siren, can sometimes sense the presence of nearby anomalies, etc) as a result of being connected to it through the car, depending on how connected the car itself is to the zone. distant adopted relative of the zone hivemind if u will.

> not sure about this one tbh but i like it as a concept

- has petty fights with the car sometimes. like an old married couple. they always make up tho because theyre in love

- driver and francis meetup???? maybe 1 day

Gotta say tho I LOVE how basically everything in the Devildom has the word 'devil' or 'aku' from 'akuma' in it. FabSnap is like the only outlier but other than that... Devildom, obviously. Devilgram. Akuzon. AkuDonald's. Devil salmon terrine. Devil duck confit. Devil crush super spicy mango juice. Akuber. Demonus is literally just 'demon' + 'us'. It's like they constantly need a reminder that they're demons
