#jack: 'thats not what i asked'

[cozymochi]

ALTERNATIVELY TO MY PREV QUESTION <3

Is there any saved something you have which needs context, and that you definitely could write a whole post essay about, and maybe even wanted to, if someone had only asked or only the opportunity had arisen?

And if so, would you like to use this ask as a perfect excuse to do so~? ;)

One time I conceptualized a 1st year sleepover at Ramshackle event type thingy. They’ve had them before but what can i say— im a sucker. It’s was more so catered specifically towards things involving my MC and their specific issues, but, for brevities sake— it involved trying to cheer up the Prefect, then in trying to come up with something cool to do, one guy has a brilliant plan and it suddenly becomes an unwanted escape room/home-invasion horror movie thanks to a magic skeleton key that fucked with Ramshackle. I never ironed out the details. But here are 5 out of 6 hypothetical “cards” I drew for it.

These are all hella old, and the only thing that bugs (aside from never finishing Ace’s rip, sorry😭 ) is that I drew them on a canvas that was too small and I didn’t notice until it was too late!! Then i had the grand idea to make them bigger, but that made them more jank. So the quality has been compromised across the board. There’s a lot I’d change design wise nowadays. BUT I’M STILL a fan of Deuce and Ortho’s appearances specifically (even if there are minor things i’d adjust, like maybe Ortho’s pose since i wasnt comfy drawing him and his machinery aesthetic yet.)

Hypothetical “SSR” belongs to Sebek because at the time he didn’t have an event specific one. This era was a throw a bone W. Nowadays I just want the guy to always have Ws.

It’s a little janky presentation wise across the board imo, so if I ever come back to this one day with more refinement, everyone is getting redone. And maybe Ace can be an “SSR” too to make up for never finishing his image (not showing the old wip). No promises though, even dropping this much in the states they’re in is enough to shoot my nerves tbh. I like the base idea fine, but it could do with a lot more refinement everywhere. AND NEXT TIME I’D REMEMBER THE RESOLUTION SIZE. BUT YEAH THATS IT REALLY the end. This wasn’t an essay this was venting lmfao rip

You asked me about Susan but I'm curious of your thoughts on Timothy in Pre Sequel comparisment to Moxxi BL3 DLC if it's OKI!! I love reading your interpretations sm 😭💕💕

OH BOY WHERE DO I START

I think the main difference is the fact that Tim is a bit jaded in bl3. This guy is living out of pure spite at this point and refuses to die in the casino, just like he refused to die on Elpis. Actually, he’s always refused to die for Jack or any Jack-related reasons, but the core reason for it is different. In tps Tim’s biggest qualm with Jack was the fact that he just didn’t like him which became more and more apparent as he continued helping him. Bl3 Tim has realized that he wasn’t just working for Jack, he was in servitude to him

Jack wanted Tim to kill people, so he did that. Jack wanted Tim at the casino, so he went there. Jack wanted Tim to become a pornstar, so he became one. Jack, Jack, Jack, everything was for Jack. The least he could do was die for himself, away from the casino and anything relating to Hyperion

Another thing I immediately took note of was how he sleeps around at the casino which is actually really interesting to me since that’s very much a Jack Thing to do, and you’d think that Tim would try to be as less like Jack as possible. Tim doesn’t seem to be that much of a casanova in tps, only flirting (and failing) with Moxxi, but even then it was because he thinks she’s pretty, not just because he wanted to sleep with her. I imagine Tim gets lonely at the casino since he’s always on the run and some hanky panky is a way for him to not only feel less so but also to distract himself from his whole situation. Tps Tim is, to me, the type of guy who gets flustered when someone thinks he’s coming onto them, whereas bl3 Tim is much more familiar with casual sex thanks to his job

BUT ALSO speaking of Moxxi, there are still similarities. Tim is still an awkward dork when it comes to people he really likes and that shows with how giddy he got when he was gonna talk to Moxxi (and how he completely fumbled it at first). He DEFINITELY thought about her a lot and rehearsed lines that he would say to her which is probably another coping mechanism to him. “Gotta leave the casino or you’ll never be able to tell Moxxi how you feel” type of gooey schmooey stuff. Tim is overall more passive aggressive in bl3 and holds a grudge against Lilith for vault punching Jack which lead Tim to get scarred as well, but he never judged Moxxi for viewing him as collateral damage on Helios and almost getting him killed. If there’s anything Tim is really good at it’s being in denial!!

Aside from all this Tim is just way more comfortable at what he does, even if he doesn’t necessarily like it. In tps he considers the dopplegänger program worth it at times because he’s getting good in combat, but there’s a cognitive dissonance there. Bl3 Tim is, again, jaded. He still doesn’t like killing people, but this time it’s about self preservation, not doing someone else’s dirty work because you can’t pay your student loans (god does he miss worrying about student loans)

love how years later i still really like cassidy/hanzo. Im gonna blame this on the fact every time im in a game with a cass we somehow end up hip to hip for most of the game and its just silly overall

Feel free to ignore this, but I have to ask since I've been rewatching yugioh 5ds and you're one of the very few blogs I've searched that mentioned Satellite Bros age order. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this and if you know other blogs that talk about it.

WHY WOULD I EVER IGNORE THIS ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS. THANK YOU SO MUCH <3

*takes deep breath* ok SO

Word of god canon is that the age order is Jack (19), Yusei (18), and Crow (17), at the start of the series.

But while you can make an argument that Yusei would have records, people who knew when he was born, or at least a birth certificate, Jack and Crow are orphans. If Jack is indeed 19, then he would have been roughly a year old when Zero Reverse happened, likely killing his parents, at the very least destroying a massive amount of city infrastructure. You tell me Jack knows his birthday and I press (X) to doubt.

Crow is apparently canonically younger than Yusei, but. His parents also died in Zero Reverse.

This. This straight up does not work.

Also Yusei is shown to be a baby when Zero Reverse occurred and if Crow's parents did indeed die in Zero Reverse when he was under a year old he there is NO WAY he would live much longer than that. That's just. How babies work.

CROW HOGAN HAS TO BE OLDER THAN YUSEI.

I will die on this hill. I watched the show thinking Crow was the middle brother and then learned their apparent canon ages after because he has to be older than Yusei for any of his backstory to make sense. Konami can fight me on this.

NARRATIVELY they are the middle and youngest child. Jack has Past motifs, Crow is Present, and Yusei is Future. Jack and Yusei's whole dynamic is the most oldest sibling vs youngest sibling drama possible.

As for Jack, I always like to think it was his birthday like, a week before Yusei leaves Satellite, because being a Newly Minted Twenty Year Old explains everything about his personality.

I saw your Doctor biting post recently and it’s been stuck in my brain ever since. Do you think the companions would bite too?

yeah :)

donna and clara would take a little bit to warm up to it, but they'd be ones to bite back, absolutely. amy, too, cause amy bites, canon, but it might be a bit before that holds the same ritual importance as the doctor biting, before it becomes more than 'the doctor put his hand over amy's mouth to make her be quiet and amy bit him because. well. he put his hand over her mouth.'

i think bill might too, once or twice, because she offers for the doctor to bite her so he would offer back. she'd do it cause she's curious and she'd do it cause he trusts her. i don't know that martha would until later in their friendship. say: not when she says goodbye to him in s3, but when they meet again, absolutely. (also, there's a comic where she meets thirteen, sorry detouring i need to mention it cause i got to skim it at the bookstore the other day. ANYWAY. my point is that i don't think thirteen bites any of her current companions because Issues Girlie. but i think martha, hearing that she's a future doctor, that martha not only survives her but thrives, and seeing that the doctor is, still, despite her smiles, hurting. i think martha would bite thirteen. is what i'm saying. and i think for one moment, thirteen would allow herself the vulnerability of biting back.)

rose gets to bite the doctor during doomsday :) right after he tries to send her away to the other dimension and she comes back :) she bites him for the first time and it means i'm choosing you and this life and everything that comes with it, even what i don't understand but know that's important to you :) it's why he doesn't argue, cause she bites him, and it aches all the way until she slips beyond his fingers and can't keep that promise. bruises while he's running around with donna and i think it fucks him up pretty bad when that bruise fades :)

still learning charley, but oh, i think she would bite eight. charley will yes, and anything. if the doctor bites her, then she'll bite him back. and she'll bite him herself later, nip him to get his attention or fluster him. eight is very biteable can we blame her-

i haven't Finished thirteen's era so leave this opinion subject to change. but. like i said, won't let herself bite her companions, so they don't even know that that's an option, that that's important to her. i don't think ryan or graham ever get the chance or know. but. yaz probably does. yaz probably figures it out. (if she's not told, outright, because the master Does Not Like Her and will bring up clara and her bitey ways if only to mock yaz for not getting to in comparison. (<- guy who hated clara so so much and is now pretending that she was Better, Actually. issues boy.))

maybe she does, once, i'll see about that. i think i'm pretty secure on the doctor never biting back, though.

I love going crazy over both just dance and ace attorney right now because it means I'm literally thinking of an ace attorney au as we speak

jack and sawyer body swap, sawyer blacks out because he isn't personally capable of handling being autistic

[mr-inkslinger]

As a PSA, because I answered another ask;

I will not be responding to the asks that are telling me to kill myself, calling me various slurs, among other things. To be clear, whatever you try to say to me; I've said worse to the mirror. Try harder. I've heard better arguments from my middle school bullies. Also, wishing SA on someone in 2024, the year of our lord and savior, is fucking tacky. You all are tutorial bosses. Your insults literally sound like an rdr2 npc's antagomism line. When one of you says something actually fucking creative then you get a spot on this humble blog. Until then, good luck!

[rillette]

who is helen's dad? Do the brother's from the silver age still exist in modern/later interpretations? Do you like the other Hal Jordan aka Air Wave?

helen's dad is Jack, Hal's older brother! The brothers absolutely still exist, but their relationship has changed, with post Rebirth Jack blaming Hal for their mother's death (i hate u Geoff). Here's a nice panel of them together in Spectre (2001) instead ^_^

I like Hal Jordan (jr) a lot!! he's very silly, i think his relationship with halolliedinah is very sweet. intensely funny that he figured out hal was GL within like 5 mins of meeting him as air wave.

OKAY okay so-this fuckin commission

i wont reveal any plot or anything-but the main damn thing im stuck on-is Mal. so the commissioner requested a bit where she's mean to (y/n), and the sea three come to his defense. and-i have no fucking clue what to do with that, like-yeah making Mal mean/snotty is easy, but idk what exactly the fuck i wanna do with that?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i dont wanna make her mean in a cruel way, i dont wanna make her transphobic or homophobic since ive already clearly stated her as very chill with that aspect within the fic (she easily uses (y/n) pronouns and refers to him as a dude very easily; (y/n) is trans-masc if thats not clear yet) BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK TO DO?! my brain has been fucking FRIED about this one damn bit of the fic-i dunno where to put it, and i dunno what to do with itAO;ISHFD AUODFAGUIPGUISADI

Help, im fucking legit so damn frustrated
