Jason never got to be 16. makes me sad.
Not to deny that Jason not being able to make it to 16 in his first life is sad, but I mean he did technically end up making it, and he made it to 17 and 18 and 21 and so on and so forth, it just happened "in round two" so to speak.
What I think is sadder though, is that depending on whether he was 15 or 14 years old when this happened:
There are one of two ways he would've spent his sixteenth year.
Option 1 (if he was 15 at the time of his ressurection):
(This is 1 year post initial hospitalization)
Or Option 2 (if he was 14 at the time of his ressurection):
(And this is 2 years post initial hospitalization, 1 year post escape from that facility)
Happy sweet 16th, Jason John Doe #265 :)

Saw someone say that Nia keeping secret was validated by Tyrils whole dilemma and shit behavior about it and yeah soooo true but also I think that. It shouldn't have been part of MCs plot. Like what if it wasn't MC who was told to keep her shadow secret but MAL.... like they have spent most of the year together they worked closely on the ophranage so plenty of time to build more trust between each other and Mal acting weird and closed off would be at least somewhat justified... as well as his sort of immunity to shadow attack like what if Nia had the ability to shield him bc he knew about her powers and didn't need explanation. Like I'm actually so pissed off that they created unnecessary drama for MC when the set up was already there that would have had deepened two LIs arcs and test their bonds with the group and MC.. but no its always annoying variation of liar reveal
I read this ask yesterday I think and have really been contemplating how I want to respond to it because I have so many thoughts and don’t want this to turn into a lengthy, disorganized mess 🤦🏽♀️ But anyway, from an objective standpoint this does make sense. And I do hate that MC was held responsible instead of Nia. (Although it wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. I thought everyone would be angry with us, which would’ve put me off Mal specifically even more considering his behavior so far — more on that later though. But it was really just Tyril if you picked one option and Nia herself if you picked the other based on some screenshots I saw. Which bitch, how is MC betraying your confidence when you’re literally standing in front of everyone looking like lit charcoal on a damn grill??? The secret’s already out! But I digress…). However, I know that Nia being coddled is a part of her arc and is contributing to her current shadow state and overall growth regardless of how annoying it is.
Back to your main point though, on a personal level I don’t think I would want Mal to be the one hiding Nia’s secret because I feel that would create a lot of potential for romantic undertones and he’s already been showing less genuine concern for MCs who are romancing him than he should anyway imo. He keeps saying he thought we were dead/going to die, he’s happy we’re back, things were so hard without us, etc., yet his actions don’t actually align with that. He wants to protect everyone so much to the point he’s willing to “sacrifice himself”, but he barely reacts to MC continuously being placed in near death situations? Idk it just feel like we’re priority #974127 on his list.
And then there’s the whole “you slept through it” situation, which I know I keep bringing up but is so serious in my eyes! He gets to diminish and dismiss what MC went through — something we don’t get to do when he’s crying about how hard it was throughout that year and us being ripped from the group was what caused the hardship in the first place! Like imagine if we were like “You didn’t have it that hard, Mal. You got to move on, continue to rob the rich, and open an orphanage while I was strapped down getting my blood drained and no one came to save me” 😐 And the sad thing is that I know it will never be addressed because it was something they used as a throwaway line to punish people who didn’t have the Inspire skill. (Which why you would make a character say something that damn cruel to the MC who is his friend or love interest as a throwaway line is beyond me, but whatever). Either way, my point is that it’s already bad enough that MC still feels like an outsider in the group (to me at least). So Mal being so closed off because he and Nia were keeping secrets on top of everything I just mentioned would be even worse imo

Anyway,
"C'mon, Ford, I know you steered away from the frats, but you know what a little friendly hazing is, right?"
Flabbergasted, Ford echoed, "'Hazing'?" And then, even more disbelieving, "'Friendly'?"
"Sure! You built us a portal, you got cast out of your dimension into ours—you were gonna get a hero's welcome! You'd joined the gang! You were one of us!"
"I'd—spent weeks trying to stop you!"
"So?"
And Ford thought, he means it. Bill, mad thing he was, never thought that being Ford's friend and destroying Ford's universe were mutually incompatible. When Ford had arrived in the nightmare realm, Bill hadn't been hunting him, he'd been welcoming him. Lounging on his stupid tacky throne, hanging out with his terrible friends, feigning a punch at the new guy to make him flinch before laughing and inviting him to the party. And Ford—sleep-deprived, terrified, paranoid—hadn't seen it.
And then Ford thought, he's lying. It was thirty years ago, and Bill could say anything he wanted about what he would have done if he'd caught Ford, because he hadn't caught him.
"Is he telling the truth?" Irrelevant. What Bill's intentions were at the time doesn't matter. What matters is whether Bill has convinced himself that he's telling the truth.
"Does Bill think he's telling the truth?" Irrelevant.

To get rid of the Doodler, they needed to be radical. Code Purple was that radical plan, and it had worked. For a while. It just needed to work again. Which it would.
Lark was convinced that it would.
You’re either with us or against us, Nicky.
Welp. Guess that by that infallible logic, I’m against you. Sorry, guys.
Lark was sorry, too.
But feeling sorry had never been too big of an issue for him.
Or: Lark and Nick spend one last night together before shit hits the fan.

I'm pan and I ship Marchil. Since when was shipping ever about if it was "gay enough" I have loads of gay ships, but none of them ship just because I want to ship something gay. As someone who is pan, it's all about character dynamics and how well or even just how interesting it would be for two characters to be in a relationship regardless of gender.
It's totally unfair to put down one ship, ignore all the aspects that make it an interesting ship, all because it is straight(-passing).
Agreed!
And listen, I’m glad I didn’t put that post in tags lol I want for it to be peaceful in my corner, but also I woke up to this nice ask and not 10 anons with bad takes! Overall success. The dunmeshi discord server I’m in is much better on this issue than tumblr, and for marchil specifically there are even people who doodle for it sometimes but never post it publically! Spreading positivity is so much more important than spreading negativity, and positivity for marchil is spreading indeed 🌟 Their arcs and specific dynamic is so unique I am so crazy about them, I should really get that post analyzing their arc in excruciating details done… Oh shit I knew I forgot to do something for valentines
Whiiich speaking of there’s also a lil marchil doodle I wanted to clean up and post yesterday, so I’m looking forward to finishing that soon. Oh and marchil edits… And marchil fics… Lol they are monopolising my schedule. AND SPEAKING OF marchil fics a new one got uploaded to ao3 yesterday!! By the og marchil fic writer warrior that made the first 2 ones… And while I’m on the topic! There are two fics on Pixiv for them (besides mines) here tagged chirumaru, if like me you re desperate and want to scout out the whole internet for marchil content. Although, artworks are instead tagged maruchiru here for some reason. We are small but we are there 💥 Edit: ANOTHER NEW FIC TODAY?!! Stonks omfg
Happy Dungeon Meshi Thursday!! And Adventurer’s Bible 2 dropping! Expect things to be added into the marchil crumbs masterpost if not full new posts hehe
