i have a question abt ur fic— why does harry neglect james so much? i thought at first it was because james seems to be the only one who has his stuff together but after the recent chapter i feel like he’s gone through the most…

i feel so bad for him

OMG MY SECOND FIC ASK???? AND ITS DAYS AFTER DEATH (tries to be normal).

hey so thats rlly funny u ask that bcuz the next chapter will give u more insight! im gonna try have it up by the end of the week!! it will be in harry’s pov right after james’ attempt, and will give more of an insight as to why harry is distant with james. a lot of it is due to how guilty he feels. to him, james’ experiences and mental degradation feel like a testament to his shitty parenting, and harry fluctuates between ignoring the issue and drowning in the guilt of it. so he tends to latch onto people he feels he hasn’t fucked up, and can get away with projecting a shinier version of himself (eg. lily and teddy and NOT ginny, james or albus, who make him feel the worst parts of himself whether intentionally or unintentionally). so even if james is not directly picking fights with him like albus or ginny, the shame still lingers because james has been through so much.

yes, james has undoubtedly been dragged through the trenches 😭🙏

i could talk about my characterisation and mental state of my harry for paragraphs but i feel that will defeat the purpose of this fic if i overexplain before i can properly show it in my writing. i hope this cleared some stuff up though!!

"Every like month or so, a new background THSC character pops into my head and stays there until the next one comes around. For some reason, some characters stay there even if I don't like them. Those ones being Kev Portly, Gene Fredrickson, Gary Mann, and Gadget Gabe (if he even counts)"

Okay so I think he would totally want something like chocolate or vanilla but wouldn't want people to think he's a basic bitch or something so he goes for mint (I was yet again proved wrong as his panic choice is vanilla but oh well)

That shit has drugs in there love

So no drugs (I was wrong again what a surprise lmao)

I have no idea what a speakeasy is but i'm going with the vibe here

Can someone explain the science behind me being about to like share fics no problem (showcases my writing ability)

Yet when it comes to original works, I in no way in heck will share that or if I do it takes me A LONG time to share stuff I write (showcases my writing ability)

The math ain’t mathing 😭

i am so crasy abt ur tweet abt verdante being a tragedy its like in my mind at all times. like ,,, im rotating it in my head, im so ruined, this idea consumes me u do not understand i am opening up google docs and writing a fic im morose im captivated i am making an ao3 account

like ur so right 4 that one banger

KYAAAA ON MY KNEES... i have so much feelings on it u have no idea. twitter doesn't let me go ham but since we are on tumblr let me write a goddamn essay on this

the thing is that yes i enjoy both verdante being a romcom comedy or a tragedy or anything in between. ofc we'd like them to be happy but part of me like to explore what would happen if we really stayed canon-compliant

and like. let's take a look at them both. Vergilius is canonly someone who's weighed down by his past sins (killing and assassinating and orphaning children), who fully well accepts that he deserves the karma that comes for him (like this man literally is expecting it and doesn't fight it), yet he chooses to drag himself forward bc if he doesn't he will sink into despair. he is full of guilt and shame. verg also seems reluctant to form new bonds which is understandable considering that he lost everything prior to limbus, and how he doesn't want to drag people down with his karma, at the same time it would be extremely hard for him to trust people due to the risks of betrayal and manipulation in the city. he KNOWS that kindness and empathy will be consumed by the city if they don't adapt (see leviathan and his thoughts on garnet) therefore anyone would be wary bc there's always a catch. vergilius is also extremely duty bound to restoring garnet and lapis and it weighs down on him a lot

now i dont see Vergilius as oblivious bc the man would obviously recognise signs of attraction from Dante. but vergilius, despite his harsh exterior, is also kind deep down or at least practical, so taking the above into account, in this scenario he would probably outright address it to dante that he has... personal goals. maybe dante will be sacrificed at the end for limbus company as a whole, maybe not, but Verg makes it clear that he WILL choose lapis and garnet over dante bc that is his responsibility. what he owes to them.

executive manager, he doesn't say, do not be a fool.

and to his surprise, dante just nods and writes him, "I'm aware. It's ok, I understand."

bc dante respects him. they respect his space and not push anything at all (alongside how they probably feel that they are not worthy yet, or that they don't want to burden Vergilius, bc c'mon they're stumbling through their responsibilities after losing their memory, work is more important than personal interest now), i also like to think dante isn't say, self-depreciating, but more like they've accepted that they have so much to live up to and Vergilius has something to achieve and they will not stand in his way, so they're content to just spend time with Vergilius as manager and guide.

and there's that. they don't talk about it after the day. nothing changes between them. they continue on as manager and guide.

the only exception is that now Vergilius is aware that Dante fully accepts that he will sacrifice them for his own goals. yet Dante is content to spend time around him and vice versa (he doesn't admit it)

and isn't that the tragedy?

vergilius, to be aware that something could have sparked between the both of you, yet you cannot afford to cross the line due to circumstances. occasionally imagining what it could had been if the both of you were actually allowed to. how should you feel when the other person still seeks you out and befriends you despite knowing that you will never pick them

and dante, getting the confirmation that you will never be picked and will be the third or fourth or whatever choice but that's okay. manager and guide is enough, you WILL enjoy whatever there is between the both of you without asking for more

personally, unrequited love as a tragedy is not effective to me bc it's not that hard to respect another person's feelings and not make yourself the victim.

the REAL tragedy here is being aware of the lost potential and what-could-had-beens, yet IN SPITE OF THAT theres the quiet acceptance and humble enjoyment of whatever there is between the both of them bc that's all they can afford. how fate and the city fucked them both up. yet they stay professional because they respect each other too much (to the point of suppressing their personal feelings for the other) to make this into a hassle

maybe dante dies at the end of limbus and verg would reminisce on what it could had been. maybe verg dies and dante occasionally recalls the little moments they get to spend together. maybe they both die. maybe they both live but they walk a too different path to ever converge again. maybe we slap canon in the face and let them survive or meet up again in the future.

whatever it is, i just really enjoy the sweet sweet pining between the both of them throughout limbus company. the horrors of Knowing. i'm going to bite something
