i think now i understand why gege despised gojo so much
he himself built him as the strongest character right from the beginning and he kinda went off on building his character from the moment he was born. like, it was such a great story, his whole character, his very essence was so so good,
like, there is no way this character was only loved based on the headcanons, you know? some characters are like that, but i think gojo was really loved for everything that he was.
but then he remembered that he had a kind of a main character whose story had to be done and like yeah, it was an exciting thing to see sukuna vs gojo but WHAT THE FUCK WAS THE POINT OF THAT FUCKING “THE STRONGEST” BUILD UP? WHYYYYY
why would you do that to this poor character? i’m not i could do better or whatever, no way i’m downvoting gege akutami’s abilities, but … seriously man💀
and him still not being over his break up with geto after so many years, after killing him(which i think is being mentioned in every 10 chapters just so people could still commit to reading, just like gojo’s cameos) gives him a very emotional depth, but like WHAT IS THE POINT ? WHAT IS THE POINT OF GOJO THEN?
is he just a pretty face for cool panels? just a fucking tool to use to show off how characters are so fucking smart? what is the point of them too if they still rely on gojo to defeat sukuna
I’m not saying gojo should’ve won in the battle of the strongest but like don’t fucking do that battle with every other panel screaming “nah i’d win” just for the character to be off-screen killed bro OFF-SCREEN UGHHHHH
i just think he didn’t know what to do with gojo
either he uses him and sukuna is pointlessly killed or gojo is killed just so others can show their abilities and fail again and again until they come back to using gojo. poor gojo.
can you imagine that? your body barely put together and then your brain removed and your soul trapped, restlessly watching everything.
what the fuck

i think its weird that i have to make this disclaimer but the internet is crazy so wtvr,, anyway,,
if i say i dont like something, that doesnt mean "that thing is bad and nobody should post it.."
i swear literally every time i even mention that i dislike something, people will go "wow does that mean u fucking hate me cuz i post that thing? ur a fucking stupid bitch and all ur opinions r wrong" LIKE ?? er.. no. just because i say i dont like certain characterizations of certain characters (the saiki k fandom is CRAZY about this cuz i can state an opinion on literally any character and a group of people will still go 'well only we're allowed to post our opinions about them because we're always right!1!1!'), or certain ship tropes (mentioned my hatred of toxic yaoi maybe once or twice on here months ago and people STILL get mad at me as if i said toxic yaoi lovers r evil or something), or certain ships, or WHATEVER, does not mean that i HATE the people who are posting them or that i think they shouldnt post them at all, NO, im just posting about my personal tastes on my personal blog and it would be extremely weird and hypocritical if i decided that i was the ONLY person that was allowed to do that,,
i think the only reason people assume that is because there are a lot of other people on here who ARE like that, and a lot of people toe the line between posting that they dont like something and posting that they think everyone who likes that thing is stupid, annoying, and wrong,, so i guess all i can say is, sorry for whatever made you make these assumptions but they arent true about me so plz leave me alone ʘ‿ʘ ur doing the same thing to me that ur accusing me of but i didnt do it in the first place so ur just actively being a dick for no reason

So I don't know if it was ever revealed how Duncan felt when we killed Malistaire all three times but I'm wondering if maybe some part of him could hate us for that too. Like you hear that and you go "but why. Malistaire was terrible and even Duncan knew that(?). Why would he hate you for getting rid of him."
But like I think it's so....... interesting in a very, very, very sad way how Duncan so easily latches onto anyone who directly feeds into his delusions of grandeur. And that's no fault of his own that he was manipulated by the nasty Schism but when you think about how desperately clung to the idea that Malistaire, easily one of the greatest necromancers any of us had ever heard of (at that time), somehow actually recognized Duncan's talents (even when canon supports that Duncan wasn't all that talented, at least no more than the next necromancer) and then praised him for it so often that Duncan believed that he would be the next Death Professor is. I mean ☹️
So like with that mindset I unfortunately feel like it would be quite easy to twist even Malistaire's death as something that's horrible and awful and all our fault. ESPECIALLY if the Schism was feeding into Duncan's already broken mind and shattered ego and was constantly telling him that everything bad that ever happened to him ever in his life was Our Fault. That's like a realistic conclusion that someone like Duncan could come to
And like, at this point in time, are Malistaire's crimes even a factor in how he thinks????? Was Duncan ever able to separate Malistaire's talent and skills and prowess from the terrible and awful things he did? If Duncan wasn't able to consciously tell that distinction in the first place I can't imagine it would be any better during the years he was being manipulated and isolated and lied to
Like in Duncan's mind it probably isn't, "maybe I shouldn't idolize a national criminal, or idolize anyone at all for that matter, and aspire to be like someone so harmful when I can recognize my own talent and build from there" it's probably more like, "you (the wizard) permanently got rid of a brilliant mind, an innocent person who just made a few mistakes, and someone who believed in me no matter what just so that you could be the better than me and loved by everyone else" and that's! very sad actually!

What about Riven and Saladin hcs? Mixed with Riven and Helia roommates and friends hcs?
OH INTERESTING
i'm obsessed with your brain actually <3
I think Saladin would be really proud of Riven's progress and ultimately have seen his potential a lot more than other people around him!
Similar to Flora, Saladin would also just appreciate the fact that the specialists clearly make Helia happy, even if they are annoying kids sometimes
Actually obsessed with the idea of Riven and Helia being roommates !! I've already shared this headcanon but I like the idea of both of them having issues sleeping but for different reasons. And it's that trope of they can never get to sleep but when they start to room together they can sleep and it's like :o
Also obsessed with the idea that Helia could join literally any team at the school and he immediately chooses the most problematic and annoying team there. Helia: yeah that one please :) Saladin: .....
AND THEN he also becomes besties with them. like saladin is gonna have to deal with these guys forever now... how could his own grandson do this to him
adjghlajdgh but saladin is actually super supportive of riven!! like he literally just let him off the hook after getting with the witches who destroyed the entire school 😭 i mean he redeemed himself yes, but also saladin my guy there's gotta be rules about that akjdghajldgh
the only time the specialists ever really get into trouble is when they start physically fighting each other which in my mind means saladin basically went "boys being boys <3" and left it at that for two whole years before he actually thought hm. maybe that's not okay.
literally i think about saladin's reaction to helia wanting to join That team every day... some prince and his bodyguard who prince and the paupered the whole school... some guy with trauma who almost helped the evil witches and then got thrown into witch jail... some nerd who's getting ignored by everyone..... all of them constantly arguing and ruining school events because they can't stop fighting.... and his grandson who ran off to art school and hates guys like that befriends them and wants to join their team.... and then the angry guy unintentionally sabotages a mission leading to a universe no magic panic and basically gets him (purposely) expelled... and helia's just okay with that. like WHAT went through saladin's head i need to know
riven: does saladin hate us. helia: wouldn't you like to know 😊
saladin: do the boys think i'm too uptight or mean. helia: idk do they 🤨
riven: you're kind of annoying. helia: i'm telling saladin to give you dragon poop duties
on a somewhat serious note, i think the specialists would feel a lot of pressure to make sure helia stays alive so saladin doesn't kill them himself. like he definitely wouldn't be mad at them but i think their overall fear of people would make them think he would get really mad at them. on a goofy note, that means they never let him do stupid dangerous things :(
helia: please let me jump off the ship to catch the bad guy it's gonna be so rad. riven: NO

May be asking boss if I can work from home for the rest of the week so I can be closer to Rollei.
Jon called me at noon. Rollei is very swollen and Jon wanted me to call the vet again. I told him he needs to call since he's the one with eyes on him. If the vet has questions, I can't answer them properly. He was grumpy about it but agreed to make the call. It's been 20 minutes and I haven't heard anything back, but hopefully I will soon.
