kabru, who loves human interaction, but is still very cynical about the human nature. if they don't meet his high morals, they cannot be trusted. they're clearly hiding something and he'll find out, one way or another.

laios, who is terrible with human interaction, but still tries anyway. he'll help you, no matter what. he won't even ask for anything back. he's just glad to help you out. he's trying, my god is he trying.

i adore Maruki as a character because he's simultaneously the most relatable depressing character that will make you cry with empathy, and the goofiest wettest cat loser in the game like what do you mean youre a licensed therapist and your first response to trauma is to brainwash a girl, project ur relationship issues onto a 17 yr old boy, and then rule the world in a golden leotard? bro went from 0 to 100 so fast??? anyway he's like 30% of the reason why p5r works as well as it does

dear diary i thought about how saix is one of the only nobodies to actually fulfill the ideas presented about nobodies+nobody goals and also his position as a child who put everything he had into a goal he would fail to attain in ten years and got so distressed i passed out

korn really set the bar for bad parents in BL b/c he’s not a bad parent b/c he’s homophobic, oh no, in fact he’s the opposite he supports all his gay sons and even his gay nephews he’s a bad parent b/c he made his semi-foster nephew believe for a whole 60 secs that him and his bio son were cousins fucking nasty while hiding his foster sister in the attic for like 20 years, killing his nephews father, all after faking his own death and then sent his gay sons on a boat party to celebrate their engagement

Janus's characterization was at its peak in SvS pt 1. In this essay, I will...

Smooth Manipulators

They always have these smug eyes that say "I've got everyone and everything playing out exactly as I wanted!" 😏

what the fuck is up with Reyna. who tf is she. how did she become this crazy crime overlord. who was she when she was a child. is she single- [gunshot]

(Seriously tho this ur excuse to tell me absolutely anything you want about her bc I am Obsessed)

childhood lore is secret right now (I cooked really hard with it tho believe me I want to share but I'm storing it for the future) but she grew up on a farm in a village in the American Midwest. (the main story takes place in an alternate timeline where the world's structure is similar but slightly different to reality) How she got the international criminal empire is uhhhhh scratches head not sure the mechanisms of how exactly she did that for now but she was very very motivated about scouring the world for evil and forbidden information. crime empire is simply the most efficient way of going about her plans. The short explanation of her motives is that she wants to starve gods.

So recently, the original pitch document for TFA Season 4 that featured Blackarachnia as the main antagonist was uncovered and shared with the world by a Twitter user named Keyan Carlile, and I’m curious: do you have any thoughts on it? Do you like it or dislike it, if you think it’s better than the second draft, if you think it properly does her justice, et cetera.

i actually have a design for s4 antagonist blackarachnia bc i like that idea so much i have soooo many thoughts on it

If Shadow was a lab-experiment then I think that means it's very likely that they used a reward system on him like any other labrat and that as a result, he's probably extremely easy to Pavlov

How funny would it be for Shadow, who's so stubborn and uncooperative, to suddenly be easily influenced into doing things if you happen to figure out what he perceives as a reward

He starts showing up at social events and everyone thinks he's finally comin around but actually it's just cause Rouge will only give him his favorite food if he attends and plays nice

i will say though that brennan revealing last episode that kipperlilly has been going to guidance counsellor for anger issues since freshman year has absolutely ruined me for seeing her as actually evil. i cannot believe that a teenage girl with anger issues is irredeemably evil i just can't
