ok but imagine how crazy convoluted Skakespeare plays would be in a world where people have daemons like in His Dark Materials
like! imagine the love rectangle Helena/Hermia/Demetrius/Lysander if you add all their daemons and those daemons fall in love with the wrong daemons because love potion went wrong and Puck can't breathe because he's laughing too hard
like. Titania doesn't fall in love with the mortal but with his donkey daemon. She doesn't care for the guy, who just needs to hang around while the queen of fairies serenades the very confused part of his soul that's shaped like a donkey.
and that's just Midsummer Night's dream!
I'm not even gonna get into Twelfth’s Night. The love triangle Orsino/Viola/Olivia is now an hexagon.
*breathes heavily*
Shakespeare plays with daemons.

the THING about Lord Asriel (from His Dark Materials/Golden Compass) is he's a main character. He's the chosen one/leading the armies of every single world/video game protagonist/man who's going to save everybody.
BUT he's also a kid abandoner. He ditched his daughter. Both of these things are true.
And he's surrounded by the Good guys. Good people. Rebels, witches, other fathers.
So it's SO funny when people come rushing to him and are like um hey?? There's a magical girl out there and everyone is trying to kill her should we do something??
And all of the other good guys are like whoa of course right, that's what we do, Lord Asriel has risked his life for me, a STRANGER, he would do anything for the people around him- surely he'll save this girl and they get to watch him go urrrrrrk.
He's ANNOYED. He rolls his eyes.
And they're like ??????? Who is this girl????
And he's like it's whatever it's my daughter.
And they're like your WHAT!?
It's so funny that he thinks it's not even a faux pas. He thinks these people (people he collected because they ARE GOOD they are Caring, Loving people) would not be disturbed at all by that. He doesn't even see it as a character flaw he's just like yeah the church has a nuke to murder my kid- I don't give a shit- now back to saving children because I am a good and noble man who must save all children- it's CRAZY. There is a schism in his mind, in his character it's so compelling.
It's like you're watching transformers and Optimus Prime out of nowhere says yeah guess I got a kid and I abandoned them- and the mother is Megatron and megatron is actually a Better parent then me. Anyways I won't answer anymore questions about it, let's go team-
#its also the best when iorek yells at him#golden compass#his dark materials#lyra silvertongue#lord asriel#marisa coulter#books#tv shows

His Dark Materials character with an it/its agender daemon and the human eventually coming out as genderfluid. All the gender went to the one side
If we’re going by the “your daemon is your complement” and “sexuality influences the gender of your daemon” concepts I think the queer scene in HDM would be wild. Daemons who come out as transgender with their person, daemons who don’t but feel the same joy, polycules where your daemons are active participants with their own relationships almost independent to you, a ridiculous amount of daemons settling at Pride events, the alethiometer college class being filled by strong-willed, confident people who know themselves so much and have the grace to openly view a mysterious yet playful truth… queer daemons!!!

Moodboard based on my stuffies!!: Felix
Felix has been with me since I was in the 6th grade! I happened upon the fellow at six flags with my friends, there was a penguin one and another one I forgot what animal but when I saw Felix, I knew he was the one. Now I take him almost everywhere, and he has quite the personality, he does contract injuries every now and then but i sew him up everytime so he okii 🐾
I named him Felix because of a friend of mine that unfortunately is not longer here with us but at the time I found this bear, my friend joked about naming it after him and I was like “why not” and now he’s named Felix! Though people keep assuming I named him after Felix from Skz, which no I didn’t but I love Felix from skz too!
This moodboard is filled with things that reminded me of this bear and I will probably do more later on my other stuffies !!
Edit: I was in 6th grade in 2018 and I find that crazy

The funniest memory of me reading HDM has to be this
Lyra: Can I trust Will?
Alethiometer (the truth compass): He's a murderer
Lyra:
#she was SO real for that#his dark materials#lyra belacqua#lyra silvertongue#will parry#I have very minimal recollection about the rest of the books but this always stood out to me#it's a shame that daemon fanfics only have the daemons and never anything about the witches. ice bears. or dust#like you could make the world so RICH omfg#golden compass#shoutout to that only bbc sherlock fanfic who used dust and witches alongside daemons#you live rentfree in my head#lyra x will

9-1-1 Dæmons (Because its more fun to think about than school and work while beeing at school or work).
Buck - Swan because swans are fiercely protective of their family. They are also noble and sweet when they want to be. They mate for life and Buck has been looking for his person for all his life, knowingly or not. And swans are also very smart and have sharp vision and impeccable hearing. Swans love to "talk" a lot and are often silly and playful to eachother
Tommy - Wolverine because they are strong and highly adaptive to their enviroment. They are smart and outgoing but still solitary. They eat a lot but keep their bodyshape because they always have something going on to keep them moving, almost like they had 300 hobbies to keep them moving. They are wily and have been known to use situations to their advantage, like returning to traps to steal the bait for a free meal over and over again and never actually falling for the trap.
Maddie - Hummingbird because they are bold, feisty birds that people tend to tink of as fragile. They are amazing mothers who care for their babies for a time even after they leave the nest. They can also be aggressive and will defend themselves and what they consider theirs, attacking if they feel they have to
Eddie - Margay because they are solitary and territorial, their personal bubble/terretories are almost 5 kilometers wide. The margay is very agile and also intelligent. They are cunning and opportunistic predators. For example to catch their prey they can mimic the sounds of baby monkeys in distress to lure adult monkeys to come to them.
Bobby - African wild dog because they live and breathe family. Blood-related or not African wild dogs are extremly loyal and will defend their family with their life. They like working as a group and are very gentle towards eachother. They don't abandon sick, injured or elderly members in the pack but instead often go out of their way to share food with them.
Chimney- Racoon because they are mischievous and playful but also bold and opportunistic, making them good at solving problems. They can be super sweet and funny but can also be equally annoying to those around them, depending on their mood.
Hen - Capybara because they are social and laid back animals who make friends with ease. They are gentle even with most other types of animals and have been known to give rides to monkeys, birds nd tortoises. Despite their reputation for being gentle, capybaras can be aggressive and dangerous when they feel threatened.
Athena - Orangutan because they are extremly smart and very family oriented. Orangutans are very gentle but also strong and quite capable of taking care or most threats they might face (except humans😞). They are introverts by nature but mother and child will stick together for years and adult orangutans sometimes visit their parents to show them their grandbabies.
Karen - Jackdaw because they are extremly intelligent and adabtable. They are very loyal to their partner and will stay with them even if they fail to produce any offspring together. They are playful and social birds who are very outgoing

I'm listening to the audiobooks of the His Dark Materials series again. I've read / listened to them many times but not for a few years.
Gods it's just hitting me again how awful what's happening to the kids in the first book. It's always awful, but I always forget how scary and visceral it is. You feel the fear and the finality and the tragedy of it. It's hard to even comprehend because we don't really have an equivalent in our world, right? Like maybe traumatizing a child so deeply they're never the same and then die. Die from sheer trauma to their spirit and body.
And it's just hitting me that they not only.... so deliberately ruin these children. They leave them out in the cold frozen woods to slowly die. They just. I can't even put it into words. They just ruin them and throw them away. They kill them and then kill them again.
Of all the characters in this vast series of names and places and tragedies and injustices - this little boy named Tony and his Ratter really weigh on my heart. Your alcoholic absent mother may not remember you in this fictional world, but in this real world I know I will.
#his dark materials#golden compass#the golden compass#philip pullman#one of the first more adult fiction series' i read as a kid#big place in my heart for teaching me the concept of accepting#that life isn't fair sometimes and sometimes there just is NOTHING you can do about it#and you have to accept it and it's better to face your fear head held high#if you're in pain accept it don't fight it you're only making it worse#and sometimes you don't get a happy ending and that's just life#it's not always fair and bad things will happen to you and you should try to keep living your best#entropy is inevitable and it's okay to accept that#you know the so you want to be a wizard books by diane duane taught me a similar lesson about entropy

“I know the people you are seeking, the child cutters,” [Iorek Byrnison the bear] said. “[…] No one will tell you about them; they pretend not to see, because the child cutters bring money and buisness. […] Without [my armor] I can hunt seals but I can’t go to war; and I am an armored bear; war is the sea I swim in and the air I breathe. The men of this town gave me spirits and let me drink till I was asleep, and then they took my armor away from me. If I knew where they kept it, I would tear down the town to get it back. […] Get me back my armor. Do that, and I shall serve you in your campaign, either until I am dead or until you have victory. […] Then I shall never need spirits again.”
pg182 of Ch10, Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman

DID in the HDM world: Deamons
alter in a polyfragmented system here with questions:
okay so in his dark materials if a deamon is representative of ones soul, when there's a DID system does the system have one deamon who never settles to one form?
do the system have one deamon that is settled into one form but it's different for each adult alter changing only as they switch?
if the latter is true can the deamon shapeshift freely only when a little is in front?
when they're co-con is the deamon a hybrid chimera of the two or more alters who are there?
in that case if an adult is co-con with a little can only half of the deamon shapeshift?
if so is that the front half, the back half, the left half or the right half or just the middle or just the top half (furthest from the ground) or just the bottom half (touching the ground) or some other way???
what if the alters are blending???
or is it that each alter has their own deamon who's out as they are? (most plausible in my opinion)
is it that everyone's deamon is out at all times regardless of who's in front so polyfragmented systems have a zoo of deamons following them everywhere some of which require different terrain (like fish) and some of those deamons can still shapeshift because they belong to the littles???
also which is funnier?????
