The thing about Kim Dokja is that his 'salaryman normal guy' appearance is just as much a false persona as 'monstorous Demon King of Salvation' or 'calm and cool leader of kimcom'.

Despite what he tells us at the beginning (and since when do we take his narration as trustworthy?), he wasn't ever just a normal, boring person, despite his best efforts. He tells us the 'genre of his life' was 'Realism', but if a life could be said to have a genre, his was definitely 'True Crime'.

It's so interesting that even pre-scenarios, he thought of the world in the terms of 'genres' and the people around him as 'characters' (like Yoo Sangah) because of course he would! Even if we discount the way he spends all his time reading and how that shapes how he sees the world, he himself has been a character in his mother's novel and 'a character' is how people see him too. He says he read that novel a thousand times to try and understand his memories until he didn't know what was true anymore. He knows the character Kim Dokja too.

And everyone knew about his past.

Everywhere he went, he was 'the son of a murderer', someone to be gawked at and whispered about.

No one has ever seen him as 'just an average guy' because Underground Killer haunted him every step of the way. Reporters. At school. Even years later at the company he and Yoo Sangah worked at, the rumours of his past had spread (Yoo Sangah was one of the few people who didn't know).

The lack of privacy and stigma that has followed him everywhere is part of why he resents his mother for writing that novel.

Pre-scenarios, he is less similar to you and me than to the families of 'famous serial killers' that get podcasts and documentaries and books written about them and who's private lives are torn apart by media. I'm not naming names, but you already know them.

I love Farid x Davrin they’re so good. Ngl I followed your tumblr for them 😭

.TYSM AHHHHH obsessed lmao people actually like my OCs like woag girlie!! My inbox is always open if anyone wants to know more about Farid, I really need to draw him all piratey, which I am going to do soon because that has something to do with something else 🫵😘 someone out there knows what I'm talking about.

.They're still marauding around in my brain, DO NOT WORRY, I'm just on my occasional Vampyr binge, please, people the game is lovely, heartbreaking 😩🙌 Also ngl I've been playing BG3 again so I'm running around with Wyll (he has literally never left my party lmaooo) and doing our gay little dances after every fight.

listen ik it's forbidden to conspire about their relationship but like, i genuinely can't imagine dan and phil being with anyone else but each other

they were literally formulated in the cosmos for each other idk how they function separately

i want to write a fic where Bruce see's Jason without his helmet and goes 'wait a minute...' checks Jason's grave and realises that Jason's body isn't there. But instead of assuming that Jason was revived, he assumes that someone stole his son's body and cloned him.

It makes total sense, why he looks so different (a clone wouldn't have any of the malnutrition that Jason suffered), why he wouldn't just come home (who knows what the clone has been taught) and why he's sneaking around (Jason Todd Bruce Wayne's Son might still be recognised).

There's only two things he doesn't understand, why pick Jason (someone who figured out he'd been Robin??) and why make Jason a killer? His son, who wanted to protect people, who said Robin made him magic, who only turned to violence when he was at his lowest point, he wouldnt kill people!

Mainly I want Jason to have Bruce gunning for him fucking feral with rage demanding to know who is desacrating his sons memory while Jason freaks out and Bruce to have a fucking breakdown about Talia not telling him.

chibi hibakana acrylic stand, drawn adorably as always by @azaracyy 🥰🥰🥰 thank you @lixenn for your tags on this post, it made me remember I have another kana and hibird art I kept to myself for too long and forgot to post shvfgscfgscdf

some ramblings, but generally, animals don't like kana. maybe it's just that advanced animal sense/instinct that they have, so they don't like her vibes at all. for example, imagine tsuna getting terrorized by those dogs in his neighborhood again, if kana shows up they'll start running away asap. other times, they'll bark/growl at her if the animal is braver (but still run away in the end after one glare).

on the other hand, there's hibird. despite being such a cute bird, i do believe that it is also quite an unusual animal??? imagine having that sick bastard birds as ur master, then quickly just switching up to the hibari kyoya(tm). i would switch up so fast too if my choice is between ugly nasty oji-san vs strong & dashing ikemen i do think hibird is very similar to kusakabe, in the sense that they are drawn to people with some form of insane aura 😭😭😭 which is why i can see it vibing with kana too (not to mention her similar qualities with hibari), despite other animals going "NOPE" on her.

Visiting southern relatives is wild. On my weird step-step-grandfather's fence is a sign reading, "These dogs bite, these people shoot," but then in his entryway is a sign reading "welcome, friends!!" So presumably, if you survive the gauntlet of turkeys and chickens and rabbits and prickers and poison ivy and barbed wire and tar spills and random piles of garbage and fires and dogs and guns and questionably made moonshine and vaguely racist comments, you've become a friend and earned the right to enter the house. There's a lesson there somewhere. Maybe in the moonshine.

Okay I might not have anyone here whos able to contribute to this question but, in the past, I have used 'Hermaphrodite" as a purely scientific word, with heavy stressing that it is not to be confused with the definition of intersex or used to describe actual human beings under any circumstances. This is in part because I've never actually found a good term to replace it, as a lot of suggested terms are... unfitting or somewhat mismatched in a strictly scientific/biological sense. A lot of the suggested terms from more worldbuilding-focused individuals are used more (or strictly) for plants, or at least in 99% of contexts tend to be used for plants or describe slightly more specific things than just "Animal with both sexual systems at once." Plants as a whole have like... god, like ten different terms for various sexual setups because they can be stupidly complicated in a way that you just aren't likely to see with most animals, which tend to be more simplistic (at least slightly, lmao). There's also the slightly more niche issue that a lot of suggested alternatives address the topic from the strict goal of 'replace the word' and thus haven't yet spread to cover some of the specific forms that can apply too, although this would probably be a pretty easy fix if everyone can agree on a term, but at least as it is I still seems like everyone is split 5 different ways on which to use. In terms of fiction/casual use I've generally been defaulting to duel-sexed, which isn't an actual used term as far as I know, just because its pretty self descriptive and also wouldn't have some fringe specific scientific use- which is an issue I'd think you'd only really be bothered by if you were dipped in a lot of discussions about fringe animal biology- which is where I think a lot of suggestions from individuals more on the intersex activism side tend to fall when the terms they raise clash against niche situational biology things. Ive also used non-gonochoristic which is both clunkier and less easily picked up by less familiar individuals, but is also basically strictly 'animal' in use. Recently I've seen cosexual, which admittedly I seemed to have missed because yet again its a term where 99% of its use is isolated to plants, although it seems like there is a handful of uses cases that applied it specifically to animals (But still ultimately fall back on the other term in order to clarify the specifics). At least in terms of recent suggestions its probably the one I think would be most likely to pick up traction as a replacement, but its definitely still mired in the problematic terminology (In that basically everything I've seen use it only commits to using it alongside the other term, rather than attempt to replace it) and also still heavily plant related. Although not to the degrees of some of the popular suggestions like 'monoecious' which is a fairly common and well known word- but its specific relationship with other plant terminology makes it feel ill-fitted for the role when its not going to mixed with plant bullshit. Seriously look at this:

I've also seen bigenital suggested recently, which I frankly think is a much worse/weaker word both in terms of just, terminology and also its finer application. And then a handful of terms that just very blatantly have too much crossover with other things. Also a dozen other words that I've seen floating around over the years, but they definitely exist as mostly peoples personal suggestions/solutions and not ones with any real traction. It's a problem I've seen repeatedly brought up, but have yet to actually see any sort of formal correction take hold. And I think part of that is almost certainly a bit of a clash between nerds trying to maintain the specific definitions of things in an area where theres already a lot of confusing overlap, Activists who rightfully want get things changed but aren't clued in as hard to more niche scientific terminology concerns like "This is specifically for plants who have a specific type of reproduction system organization with their flowers, and thus doesn't quiet work for something that doesn't have multiple sets of genitals in different arrangements as most animals do" and well meaning scientists who want to avoid the word and try using alternatives but ultimately fall back on the one people know and that they know scientifically describes the thing they want to describe even if it also carries a historically negative connotation with it. Which is where I'm realizing I've kinda been sitting, because things really haven't shifted once you sit down and read the stuff that gets put out, and unlike some... other words its specific use case is a bit less easily swapped out with synonyms. So you just fall back in on the less ideal but accepted within the bubble youre working in term. So I guess the question is, has anyone here actually seen something make some ground past just sort of 'this would be a nice replacement'? I'd frankly love if I've just somehow missed a big shift in language in the scientific community, but so often I just see people claim that one term is the new standard when its like... standard in that its used heavily in botany, and there generally is a split between botany and zoology in terms of terminology that people would want to maintain. (God don't let anyone tell you 'male and female' are the only options or bring up that stupid 'its 1st grade biology' bullshit. The world is so stupidly complicated and this would not be an issue if it was so simple but unfortunately we need terminology for all the weird shit exclusively found in three species of cactus) Anyway, I typed this whole thing up kinda just to see if anyone else had yet more terms they've seen around or even used actually properly in a scientific paper, and its a whole mess thats been bothering me with specbio for years and at the end of typing this I'm honestly just hoping more that cosexed/cosexual catches on. I think it forms a nice trifecta with perisexed/intersexed/cosexed. And hey, maybe it has caught on more in the sex and gender side of things (let me know if so, if you happen to be more familiar with that) cause I certainly am more clued in to the non-human biology stuff which is where you get weird things one single species of rose has decided to do we now have to name. On a lighter note. God I hate plants. They give me headaches.
