Kang Yo Han is the walking embodiment of I'm Not Okay (I Promise) and relates to Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge far more than is healthy. In this essay I will-

It occurs to me that “in fairly neutral amounts of pain today” is a statement that probably should not be taken as the “overall, pretty good!” I intend it as, even if I suspect the person I said it to will.

tbh tho i think my art is fugly af LMFAO

[whatever-you-can-give-me]

this is not directed at any specific person, i’ve seen this countless times in countless iterations for months. but i really genuinely think people should stop and consider their desire to comment on how they think wolfwood should bulk up in stampede s2 every time it might be mildly topical.

i don’t think anyone i see saying this means it any less than genuinely a comment on what they would appreciate in his character design. but.

at a certain point (especially in conjunction with the racialization and design drift of wolfwood in fanart) it’s hard not to hear it as discomfort with specifically the man of color in the cast not being suitably (western standard) masculine and/or sexually appealing.

there is only so much “his tits need to be jacked” and “beef him up for s2” and “he better be HOT and RIPPED like he’s SUPPOSED TO BE” before it starts to get a little bit uncomfortable.

no one has anything particular to say about vash looking like a svelte twink until he takes his coat off, when he and wolfwood are built almost exactly the same in trimax. mentioning vash’s appearance never receives a slew of “but his shoulders should be broader. where are his biceps. HIS TIT SHOULD BE JACKED” like mentioning wolfwood’s does.

just. maybe consider it. for a couple seconds. why it is that it’s very important to repeatedly mention that you think stampede wolfwood is insufficiently performing masculinity and/or sex appeal. and if that’s not what you think you’re saying. that’s still how it sounds.

Good lord writing Alfie is difficult that bloody cadence

I love the fact that I can work as hard as I can manage with a broken tooth and a dying tooth (one on each side, I've been chewing on the cavity for a year) and I still cannot save even $10 towards getting dental treatment (2 impacted wisdom teeth, + tooth broken off under the gum, + bad cavity) because I barely make enough to cover my food and board and the insane energy bill

mmkay, so. something suitor armor does consistently is criticize people with privilege -- it does so with lucia, with reimund, with kirsi

i just. idk. i just don't feel like it's quite as scathing to reimund for his ignorance, as it is towards kirsi or lucia, like maybe it's a thing later to unpack, or it happens in an upcoming chapter and be like. can more people actively get mad at reimund and his passive choices within the manhwa, bc most people seem fairly willing to mollycoddle him, and push him to the 'right' direction.

like he is witnessing shocking things, the unjust treatment of the fairies, the willingness to be an elf rather than a fairy, all to live

doesn't quite feel quite as condemnatory, tho?

mentally ill people who for whatever reason end up wearing the same exact clothing so many days in a row that it begins to disintegrate and will still not stop wearing it until it’s literally just scraps of fabric VS. those weird shitty rich people who ‘’can’t be seen in the same outfit twice’’ human dichotomy

As a break from homework trying to murder me, it is time. Don't gamble, kids, it's not good for you. I'm just doing it 'cus I sold my soul to this game a long time ago.

I don't think I've wished since like... Baizhu?? So, a long freaking time ago. BUT, I'VE BEEN WAITING. WAITING FOR THIS SPUNKY MAGICIAN LAD SINCE I SAW HIM IN THAT ONE TRAILER, ALSO A LONG FREAKING TIME AGO.

They reminded me of my main in another game. As such, I had to wish for them. If you know/remember this game, you're a legend. ;_;

I thought Lyney was going to be a dual player like character with Lynette. Like, it'll be Lynette's turn when you do the elemental skill, both of them jump out for the burst as "The Grand Finale," etc. etc. Alas, they were not. But it doesn't matter, I had to wish for them.

I got him and I still have enough gems to gamble in the future. Fontaine coming out with some nice characters smh. Gonna drain my gems dry.

Behold, whatcha think of my team. >:) Don't worry, Lyney and Lynette are in training, they won't be baby levels forever. ;_;

This new team select and character animations and everything is amazing, man, I love it so much-

low key jealous of people whose blorbos have completed arcs. the way y’all don’t have to constantly stress about them and either know they’re safe and happy OR know you can pretend canon doesn’t exist.

8, 16, 22? for the fic asks

These three sound like they're pretty specific, so I'm gonna answer for the Stunticons/TMNT roleswap au because that's the one I'm thinking about today.

8. Which character is gonna have the biggest storyline?

Toss-up for sure, but probably Motormaster - he's the biggest driver of the seasonal plots. There are two "seasons" - the structure of it is like a 20-episode season written in evergreen "monster of the week with seasonal plot tie-in" format because I enjoy that a lot - and the first season is "we want to secure Megatron's approval by proving ourselves in the field of battle" -> Motormaster is the one who really cares That Much. Motormaster is the one who tells them about Megatron in the first place because he's the one who remembers everything with him the most clearly, and Motormaster is the one who refuse sto want anything other than Megatron's Approval(tm). Season 2 is where Motormaster actually gets to have a character arc because the plot of season 2 is "we're gonna kill Megatron because fuck him, we're mad at him now" -> Motormaster has to regain some sense of purpose now that he knows Megatron never gave a flying fuck about any of them and would happily see him and his team fucking die, and learns to be his own person and a much better team leader.

Paradoxically, everyone else gets to have way more in the way of character arcs than Motormaster, but Motormaster's arcs basically are the plot. What he wants is what they do; he's the boss. So it really does wind up with him being essentially the leader of the storyline despite the fact that it focuses more on the others up until season 2.

16. Is there any written scene that you think about a lot?

I have literally written 0 scenes in this series jsdkdfhl. I've been poking at episode 1 today but not seriously.

22. Will this fic include more angst or more fluff?

This fic will feature my patented blend of bleak ass black humor and a fucking toxically large dose of dramatic irony. Everyone is fucked in the head and terrible to each other and they're a horrible little family and they love each other and they show this love and affection by hitting each other really hard where it hurts.

So, like

definitely more angst. But funny angst! Angst that demands you laugh every time they fall down. While wanting them to win. While genuinely wanting better for them, while thinking they're actually pretty alright and they need to be better to each other (and they keep getting better and working better and being nicer to each other!)
