thoughts and opinions on James Griffin from Voltron, Cannon and/or Fannon version.

oMG THANK YOU

I LOVE James.

I love him but know almost NOTHING about him (canon and Fanon wise)

I hate how he would bully/pick on Keith but he grew up, grew out of it, therefore I love him. I also love his character design, hehe

Watching Tiny Keith beat him up was thrilling and one thing I wished happened in season 8 is when the paladins (+ Coran, can't forget Coran he's such a gorgeous man) and the pilots and the people from the garrison were having one of their many meetings (I think it was the first one they had, actually. I can't remember) and I someone said smth that someone else didn't agree with and Shiro was try calm them down and they just weren't having it and James started yelling at them about chain of command and following orders from superior or some shit and we see Keiths face and I cannot put into words how badly I wanted someone to point out that Shiro technically wasn't their leader anymore and that current leader (Keith) had yet to tell them to shut up and how dare you you need us to save your sorry asses stfu and aahshdgdjdjdjdgfg

But they're not like that and they wouldn't say that but every time I think of James I think of this and I just sit and think.

My all time favourite ship with James is Jeith/Jaith because YES??? There probably was a time when I knew of another ship w/ him but now I can't think of not one.

We don't see James a lot but for the little we do see he has so much character development and I just love him so much like he was this shitty little asshole and then he's grown and responsible and there is no grudge or anything with Keith or anybody- I mean, why would there be? Canon doesn't add the details, just the basic outline and it's up to fanon to fill it in :) (says the girl who doesn't even know the Fanon)

I love James yelling, being yelled at, spying on people, and I wish we had more of him

I read this ask, started to answer it, then spent so much time just thinking about James instead of actually typing, lmao.

I have one so far anon. I'm sorry, but I promise I will work on this more as soon as the opportunity arises:

“Behold,” said Jeffers confidently, as he proudly lifted the bag over “Dr. Curtain’s” head to reveal a very scared and confused Nicholas.

“Dr. Curtain!”

Garrison inspected the man before her.

[serial-serializednovelreader]

okay for the character ask game I couldn’t decide on characters or numbers, so I just threw some random characters and numbers together, and you can decide which apply the most to what character. Whatever you like!

SQ, Jeffers, Garrison, Nicholas, Kate, and Rhonda

1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20

What do you like or dislike about this character?

SQ - in the show, I like his introspection and that they fleshed him out to not just be Curtain's adopted son who loves art and is under his control (in both a good and bad way). My only issue is that he's not in season 2, we were robbed!! As for the books, I like that what starts out as comic relief ends up being a horrifying realization that this poor teenager is brainswept so much that he can't remember what he's saying. What I dislike is that we never get to see him grow beyond that. Yes, we see him choose kindness (which is great btw) over Curtain, but I wish we had actually gotten to see him in Riddle of Ages besides a quick mention.

Jeffers - I love that he gets to be goofy. Sure the Ten Men in the books were scary, but they let him just be whacky! And why not? I love characters that get to goof around and be silly, especially if they're not supposed to. Plus, you can tell the actor playing him is having a blast and that's how you know a character is well-done. I just wish he had been in season 1, but I'm glad you put him in S.O.S. so I can enjoy him there, Bods!

Garrison - I like that this character exists, first of all. I know book Curtain is the type to want to keep the science secrets to himself, but show Curtain needs a science person to delegate Whisperer stuff to. After all, when would he have time to do this?

(did I want an excuse to put this GIF in again? Yes, yes I did. It was too funny to resist.)

But seriously, I also love that while she does bend to Curtain, she does try to stand up to him in her own way. There's a complicated dynamic there (made more complicated by reading @nobodysdaydreams S.O.S. AU fanfic, which you should read if you haven't yet because OH BOY does it change things about Garrison for you) and it's so interesting to analyze. Also, she's just a little bit quirky and I love her for that.

Nicholas - in the show, I love that they gave him issues!!!! They made him anxious and the way Tony Hale makes his posture more stooped is *chef's kiss* lovely. His "excuse me - *cut to loud screaming montage*" is TOO RELATABLE. I think they were so right for that. Also, making him more directly responsible for Curtain's downfall was a great choice (though I don't actually blame him because he was a literal child it wasn't his fault; if anything, I blame the adoptive parents for separating twins and just not coming back for the other that's so messed up??? Who does that?????). The only thing I dislike was that they basically cut down his narcoleptic attacks to nearly nothing by the second season, almost like they didn't exist. Like, y'all, come on, don't do that!

As for the books, I love his wisdom, compassion and how he always makes time for the children. He always seems to know what they're thinking and is able to encourage them in their darkest hour. Although, I have a love/hate relationship with how they cured his narcolepsy in TPD because on one hand, I hate the "curing disability narrative", but on the other he actively hated it and wanted it gone (plus he had to suppress his emotions so much because of it) that I can't really blame him for wanting it gone...hard to know how to feel on that one!

Kate - KATE MY BELOVED!!! Again, I love everything about her. For show Kate, I love how fast-paced she is. It always makes me laugh when she says something like, "Tower. Scale it. Now!!!" It's so funny to me. Emmy did an amazing job bringing that aspect to life. Show Kate is also rougher around the edges -- I don't hate it because it's more realistic...it's just sad. :(

As for book Kate, I like that she brute forces her way to solutions. Oh she doesn't understand this maze? Guess she's running through the vents. I always admired her agility (and wished I could be that cool!!). I also like that she had to grapple with the dark urge of violence because it makes sense, she's the muscle of the team, why shouldn't she end the bad guys once and for all? A dark theme, sure, but I'm glad TLS didn't hold back on it.

Rhonda - Show Rhonda is so cool because she's so good at mediating within the group and I love that she also tries to fight in her own way against Curtain outside of their work with the society. We love to see some small acts of activism!!! No notes, amazing character.

For book Rhonda, I love how caring she is. She just always finds a way to show the group in big and small ways that she cares about them. I feel like if anyone is neurotypical in that group, it's her, and for once I mean that in a good way (let's be real, someone probably needs to be to remember things and help with social cues) /j. I wish we got to see more of her!

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

Nicholas - in the books, that he learned ASL for Violet in his prequel book! I took 3 ASL classes and while it shouldn't be a big deal for a hearing person to learn sign language for a Deaf person, many times they won't. I love that he automatically accommodated her needs, rather than trying to make her accommodate him. As for the show, the screaming scene comes to mind, but I like that he reads aloud to his friends, I think it's sweet :)

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

Garrison - Giants by Imagine Dragons

Soooo again I had to manually pick this song since I don't really think of MBS characters + music together (which is weird of my brain to do, but whatever!). The reason I picked this song is because it's about addiction and someone reflecting on what they've become because of it. I think it especially applies to your S.O.S headcanon of Garrison and how she is in season 2. Wish I had a happier answer. :(

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

Jeffers - that y'all gaslit me into thinking his name was Jeepers (s/o to @mvshortcut for reassuring me I was right) and that we have Secure the Perimeter Saturday. I think it's beautiful. 😍 ❤️

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

Rhonda - I haven't seen anything I truly despise, but it definitely irks me when she gets forgotten (or whitewashed, I was worried the show was going to do that). She's such an interesting character and deserves to be included as much as possible!!!!!! Again, it's nothing I've actually seen, but if I had to pick.

9. Could you be roommates with this character?

Rhonda - yes, I think so! She'd get the worst end of the bargain dealing with my eccentricities, but I honestly think we could make it work. I'd do my best to try to make things easier for her living with me lol.

13. What's an emoji, an emoticon and/or any symbol that reminds you of this character or you think the character would use a lot?

Kate - 🪣 ...sorry, I had to!

15. What's your favorite ship for this character? (Doesn't matter if it's canon or not.)

Kate x Reynie - Sorry not sorry, I've always been a Kaynie girlie!!!! I enjoy that TMBS didn't dive into romance at all because it's good to get a break from that. Unfortunately, I'm a hopeless romantic and, at least in the books, I saw potential for something to grow when they got older (like when Reynie gets electrocuted by Curtain in TPD and Kate holds his hand while crying...that scene BROKE ME 😭 😭 😭 ).

16. What's your least favorite ship for this character?

Garrison x Curtain - idk if anyone actually ships this (I haven't seen it, I'm just adding it to the mix for consideration), but the thought of this makes me want to barf. Just....nah.

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

Nicholas - I've always admired his relationship with Milligan. If you're able to gain the loyalty and friendship of someone who's lost all of their memories, you're doing something right. :) I know Nicholas is always going to feel responsible for Curtain's misdeeds, and by extension, Milligan's memory loss (in both the books and show since Curtain is his brother and Nicholas is too much of an empath to not feel some kind of guilt), but I truly admire how he treats Milligan as someone to be taken seriously and who he wants to help.

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

Jeffers - I don't know if this crossover is allowed, but can you imagine if Moocho Brazos and Jeffers became friends outside of Curtain's influence? I don't know, I just feel like they would be besties and potentially great together in a fight. Moocho would totally break out some cool helicopter fighting moves and Jeffers would do...something?

I hope you enjoy these answers. This was super fun, Bods!!

status effect + reflect!

status effect: reflect

garrison was always improving himself and working to get better. he wanted a long and healthy wrestling career, and that meant he always had to be on top of his game. he was always looking up and researching new techniques to make sure he was ready for anything and everything. leave it to him to find some kind of 'mystical technique' that would make him near invincible. it was supposed to make it so whatever happened to him was reversed back onto the other person.

he thought it was a bunch of bullshit at first. but he figured it couldn't hurt to give it a go in the locker room. he made the preparations and brought one of the others in to test it out. he told them to punch them in the chest, and they were the ones that doubled over. he told them to stomp on his foot, and they were that ended up hopping on one foot. He was surprised as all hell to find out it actually worked.

fast-forward to garrett with his ass in the air and getting pounded for dear life. well......not really. he was getting fucked, but his partner was the one screaming and holding on for dear life.

"having fun back there?

clyde found it hilarious actually. if you were just looking at it, he was getting fucked within an inch of his life. however upon a closer look, the man was completely relaxed, and it was almost like he wasn't feeling anything at all. he was looking back at the other to see the real show in the room. if he had popcorn, he'd be chowing down right now.

Garrison AU

Adoption AU (if you’re willing)

:3

Garrison AU

Giving Athos decaf coffee is worse than him not having coffee at all

Athos is actually a trust fund kid, but he prefers keeping busy, hence the job at The Garrison. (He does, however, subtly use this to help D’artagnan on occasion.)

Lord help the poor fool who mentions Hallmark movies around Aramis. Man is Christmas Central come November 1st and those are high on his list.

Constance has said multiple times that if she ever has kids, she’d want them to be as well-mannered as D’artagnan. It’s an easy way to get a blush out of him.

Porthos hates black coffee. Can’t stand it. If there’s less than a tablespoon of sugar and a 1/3 cup of milk in there, he won’t drink it.

Adoption AU

(I have way too many AU’s 😅)

After Cia is expelled, there is a very subtle Wars Protection Squad formed. He knows nothing about it.

The one time someone tried to come after Fierce by saying he was a neglectful parent, the judge looked at the evidence and laughed him out of court.

After the third time Wars fainted at work, they called in Fierce to figure out what was going on. They were met with a very protective and angry dad, a very sheepish Wars, and his manager had to sit through Wars getting an hour long lecture on overworking.

Mask will, in fact, play pranks on the regular, but only on Wars. It’s a subtle way of letting his big brother know he feels safe. The first time he plays a prank on Fierce, all of them nearly cry.

Mask refuses to eat carrots when he can help it.

(he bites his cheek, legs straddling sam's hips as he smooths the last bandage over the man's chest. he might've gotten a little carries away with the whole knife thing...)

didn't go too hard on ya, did i?

(He chuckles softly, his breath shaken. Maybe he did. But.. fuck, what a wipe out.)

Y’spoiled me, Simon. jus’.. need ‘ta get my head back.

Need ya. Here… Close.

(He adores the small yet gentle touches of the other man- admiring the stark contrast from before. So much care put into every little move..

He didn’t know why he didn’t get with a butcher sooner. It would’ve costed him a lot less trips to the hospital.

Not just any butcher. Simon Riley. A man who’s as gentle as he is fucking insane.)

For the character ask game, 16. Childhood headcanon for Garrison.

THIS ONES IS HARD!!! we don’t see much of her, outside of a work context, in sos it seems something important happened in her youth that she’s been hiding and may even not remember at this point. i think she was really into Bionicles and also used to have much more bright red hair

[ajscico]

What if I was crazy and worked on the Garrison AU

I would love it?

▸   @sinshosted   ⟶   ❛  ❝ I hate to burst your bubble, but you’re really not as scary as you think you are. ❞ //to garrison from odin. he protect. he attack.  ❜   ╱   (  twilight , accepting .  )

“Oh, honey,”  Garrison said, laying a hand on his chest and looking at Odin from under his eyelashes.  “You don’t know the half of it.”  People who didn’t know him that well, who were knew around here, would think that he wasn’t that scary, being an unassuming elderly elementary school teacher.  But everyone who had a clue either cowered or worshiped at his feet, even though he had told the latter group to knock it off.

“I used to be the most powerful man in the country.  I dropped a nuke on Canada and still have a lot of people brainwashed.”  Not that he was bragging about it or anything; he was just saying.

“I know I don’t seem scary now, but that’s because I don’t have any reason to be.  You’re here ‘cause of your little friend, right?  It’s real cute of you to wanna protect her—pointless but cute.”

[mr-garrison-simp-blog]

I felt like you would really love these screenshots I caught of him in the episode I just saw lol ( Season 12 Episode 7: Super Fun Time )

Omg yasss it looks like hes gonna throw it back in the last pic- 😻😻😻

      Tweek is sitting upright in Ink’s bed, trembling violently, and he pulls the edge of the comfort up to his chin.  “No, I’m not,” he insists through clenched teeth.  His eyes, wide and bloodshot, dart around Ink’s modest apartment, landing on doors, curtains, any crack or crevice where he might observe the glow from a nuclear blast.

      “I’m not safe anywhere.  You heard what they did to Canada, right?”  Just when he was starting to get over the threats from North Korea, the U.S. President bombed their own next-door neighbors.  It was way on the opposite coast, nowhere near Colorado, but still too close Tweek’s personal comfort.  “That could happen to any of us!  The President’s fucking in—”  He shoves a wad of the comforter in his mouth and looks at Ink with alarm.  Once the relief of catching his mistake sets in, he releases the blanket and tugs it around his shoulders.  “No, no, I can’t say that,” he says, shaking his head.  “It’s too risky.”

      Being on the second floor is doing nothing for his nerves.  They’re exposed up here, and if World War III starts within the hour, they will never escape the fire and radiation.  “This place doesn’t have a basement, does it?” he asks desperately.  “We should be in a basement.  Maybe I’d be safer at home.  We’ve got a basement at home.”

[nobodysdaydreams]

what are some songs you associate with Doctor Molly Garrison?

“The art of selling yourself short” by Less than Jake (which I know I’ve talked about before but the lyrics literally make reference to an “Emergency”, it fits too perfectly. Plus the lines about ruined friendships and substance abuse and self hatred fit the sos vibe).

“The Scientist” by Coldplay. Maybe it’s because I see things literally (but in like a pretty metaphorical way. Like I know when you say the fire in his eyes you just mean he’s mad, but I can see the literal fire too), but I always imagine this song being sung by a literally scientist trying to figure out where they went wrong.

“My Alcoholic Friends” by the Dresden Dolls. There’s a particular line in there about the singer not having the skills to hold down a “noble occupation”, which is what I think Garrison would say if someone asks why she works for Curtain or didn’t just quit years ago.

Finally, I know @lotsofsq has a few numbers as well.
