So hear me out- Sun Wukong but either he never got banished by Patriarch Puti or Patriarch Puti forgave him earlier on

[dwarvencraftsdirectfromorzammar]

okay, fuck it. I made this post while ago and i haven't been able to stop thinking about it. i am going to be coherent in any way? Not really, some of them feel very deliberate, while some of them dont make much sense to me, maybe im reaching with this but what fun is in being normal about a show??? also i poses no brain cells so dont expect some deep shit from me (expect some shitty screenshot tho)

So we start with this:

"monster" hanging above the city, nice neutral backround as we just got introduced to the story and the characters, we have very little information overall but it hangs above menacingly ready to land on our first candidate.

We find our first monster (expectedly) in Lee Dongsik

Epiodes 2,3 and 4 greet us with these (very pretty) title cards and of course its Lee Dongsik. Playing the role of monster for us and also for Han Juwon (and rest of manyang) is essential to his character and the story. He was the one the say "If you want to get the monster, you should become one." On subsequent rewatch these feel somehow flippant, like a part of the play he keeps up. He welcomes the label, he often meets it head on like he is aware it's there. They also feel very different to another title card we get with Dongsik.

Episode 7 flashes the title across Dongsik with the sound of gunshot, and it feels very accusatory, like the show itself pointing it's finger at him "see? he is a monster after all, look at what he does." This isn't part of the play, this is just him exposed and vulnerable. Then we get the scene where he smashes that guys head on the pavement. This is also last time he is branded as such.

As we go further along and we uncover (at least partial) truth we get another monster branded.

Episode 6 gives us this duh! kinda moment you can see from miles away but nonetheless its very satisfing to see it. True monster is finally exposed and identified. But then we get episode 8 and it kinda boggles my mind.

Feeling like for sure i have been thinking too much into the whole thing, because this doesnt make much sense. Han Juwon is next to be marked as a monster as he's leaving right after arresting Kang Jin Mook. Looking back at Dongsik who is kneeling in front of body of Kang Min Jung quoting his earlier words "No one is going to die from today." And maybe this is a brand he puts on himself, maybe he thinks of Lee Geum Hwa and maybe he thinks about how he treated Dongsik, maybe its a reminder for the audience that he is not without fault here.

Nontheless the killer is found, the case is closed, we can start with a clean slate:

Title card for episode 9 and 11 is the same and they kinda represent the lull in the investigation, no new leads, no new characters to be accused, starting from zero so to say. What's interesting to me that in between these, in episode 8 we get this:

This is actually my favourite, it feels like a callback to the whole "if you want to catch a monster you have to become one". Han Juwon just had THAT conversation with Kwon Hyeok about how he, a sheltered boy can never catch Lee Dongsik. His response - "i have to be reborn". I have to become someone like him, i have to play by his rules.

Episodes 12, 13 and 16 are pretty straigtforward, as we learn more, we get more suspects. I really like that mother of Park Jung Je is in that frame with him, holding him. That last episode really driving it home for me that these have meaning.

on the other hand there are episodes 14 and 15. Mother of Han Juwon being dragged away, Han Kihwan saying "now our lives will be perfect" and little Han Juwon standing on the balcony watching the whole thing.

and again Han Juwon walking away after listening to the whole confession of his father, what he is capable of sacrificing for perfection, what he already destroyed in his pursuit of perfection.

If i had to reach and i probably was this whole time, i think that in every instance Han Juwon puts that label on himself. Eveytime we see that word flash across him he bears it with guilt. It feels like his internal struggle with things he considers he did wrong made visible. He never bears it like other characters, its thing of shame and sin. He never meets it head on, even in that instance when he wants to be reborn, because thats just not who he is. He can never use it as just a label that can have its own uses, not like Lee Dongsik did.

Also i really like that in case of Han Kihwan, Lee Chang Jin and Kang Jin Mook, our "true" monsters, just as they are branded we get to look them in the eyes. It feels very matter of fact, they know it and they dont care. There is no regret, no remorse. (In the very begging Lee Dongsik also looks us in the eyes, he bacame what he had to, to do what he has to.)

Overall, its interesting how the show uses it, its like this multipurpose tool for the characters, the show itself and the audience.

You're one of my favorite nartists lol your version of Naruto is such a feral baby and I love him. Do you think you'll ever draw any other characters in your akatsuki au? No pressure whatsoever but it would be so fun to see how you could corrupt everyone 😊

as far as the akatsuki naruto au goes, in my mind its just a role reversal au (technically, anyway) so i haven't gotten passed the stage of.... having naruto in the akatsuki LMAOKHKHKH

BUT i do have super super rough sketches of konoha nin sasuke for this au, who mind u, is more prone to covering his chest with actual clothes

like if canon sasuke has no shirt au sasuke will get a turtle-neck, ya know?

genuinely cannot fathom the thought of someone coming to my house and not feeding them like....maybe if they aren't hungry or just ate i'd still cut up fruits and set out cookies and treats and tea, at the very LEAST. or like.....what, if your family is eating dinner do these northern europeans just not...feed their guest??? like..do they just sit there??????????? like....excuse me?????? on the other hand whenever i go to someone's house even if they're my good friend i tend to bring some kind of food or drink or fruit or pastry so we can share it too like....what are these people doing 😭

violet knows theo raeken.

well, okay, she knows of theo raeken.

the supernatural world isn’t exactly a small pond (nor is theo exactly supernatural), but the dread doctors are big fish, and they deal mostly through their little pet. violet thinks it’s kind of funny, the idea of splicing animal and boy and telling him down and fetch!

garrett thinks it’s sick.

a little part of violet is jealous of theo having the claws of a monster without being bound to their rules (mountain ash would get so pesky), but she teases garrett instead of arguing, scratches at his face with her acrylics. he rolls his eyes but laughs, trying to swat her away, and she ends up in his lap with her effort to keep bothering him, and he ends up forgetting that he’s annoyed once she kisses him instead.

he remembers when she digs her nails into his neck once he lets his guard down, smiling that rueful smile he always does when she gets one over on him. he gets his revenge as she laughs at him, grabbing her by the waist and throwing her down on the couch, which is fine, because she’s happy to be underneath his weight. 

that’s the difference between them. 

when garrett wins, they both do.

when violet wins, she wins alone.

::

violet dies. garrett dies.

violet comes back, but she comes back wrong.

garrett stays dead.

she isn’t jealous of the claws anymore.

she tries to convince herself to be jealous of garrett.

::

she ends up halfway across the country from beacon hills, a college in a city that doesn’t have enough forest to hold a nemeton, and she disappears into it. 

violet is still violet because violet had not been born violet the way garrett had not been born garrett; they’d given their names to each other. it’s the only thing she has left of him, so she’s going to keep it.

she’d named garrett after her garrote. she doesn’t have that anymore, either.

she keeps a low profile. she makes friends for the sake of people knowing her, just a handful of other students she can stand to be around. no blondes, no blue eyes, and no sentimentality—blending into an environment means she has to try, but it doesn’t mean she has to care.

::

a couple of years pass. violet finds herself caring.

worse, she finds herself comfortable with it. her circle stays small, but it stays, and they don’t know who she’d been before, but they know who she is now.

sometimes, when she thinks about it, it feels like she’d tricked herself into believing her own lies, and it sends her into hysterics, laughing until she cries and crying until she sobs, sometimes to the point of nausea. 

she doesn’t like being alone. 

she doesn’t want a roommate. 

she wants garrett.

she wonders, sometimes, if he’d gotten to her, what might’ve happened. if they would’ve both made it out, maybe, once they were together, they’d been good together, but maybe he’d be like her instead. a nagual.

maybe he’d still be dead. they hadn’t had a code, not like hunters, but they’d had promises they’d made to each other. he hadn’t wanted to become a monster. she’d promised she’d kill him and he’d promised he’d leave her alive.

in a way, they’d both kept their promises.

::

violet doesn’t have her garrote anymore, but she isn’t defenseless. she keeps a knife too large to not be suspicious, but it makes her feel safer than a smaller one, and she finds an inconspicuous holster. she’d used to wear it everywhere, like a baby with a blanky, but she only brings it to parties now. she likes drinking enough—and knows enough about wolfsbane—that she’d figured out a way to still get a buzz, but she doesn’t like drunk guys.

the knife is one of garrett’s. tied around the handle is the friendship bracelet she’d taken off of garrett at the morgue. he’d worn it every day since they were eight. 

they’d been the only things she’d taken with her when she’d left.

::

violet knows—knows of—theo raeken. she knows what the doctors do. she knows what he does. they’d always reminded her a little bit of the ghost riders—once they have someone in their sights, it’s almost impossible to outrun them.

violet’s instinct is fight, not flight, so that works just fine for her.

she follows him back to his dorm, garrett’s knife strapped to her thigh.

Hi! I hope you are doing well😁.

Can I please request some Wesker HC’s about him proposing or thinking about proposing to his partner? If you don’t feel comfortable doing it I totally understand it! Thanks in advance❤️

I am, I hope you're doing well too!! :3

Wesker thinking of proposing

Frankly, Wesker never thought your relationship would last this long to begin with. At first, his interest was mainly physical. He thought you were attractive and he could stand to be around you, and he figured that would be enough to keep him busy for a while

That didn't last very long. In fact, he's a bit ashamed of how fast he caught feelings for you. After the first month or so, he was already whipped. Not that he'd ever admit it though

But even so, he figured it was a temporary infatuation, caused by too many days and nights alone in a lab

But here you are, a year and a half later

Still, Wesker isn't exactly traditional nor is he a hopeless romantic. Getting married wasn't exactly in his future plans, let alone a priority. It never really crossed his mind. You didn't seem to mind though

But then William, his only friend, got married. He didn't particularly care about it, but it did make him think. As if the idea of marriage simply did not exist up untill this point

William was very similar to him in some regards. A loner who seemingly only cares about his research. And yet, there he is with a ring on his finger

His brain is working overdrive those following days. Do you expect him to propose to you? Does he even want to marry you? Yes of course, he would be fooling himself if he said no. If there's one person he can imagine spending the rest of his life with it's you

Would you even want to marry him?

His inner turmoil doesn't go unnoticed by you. His excuse is that there's just some things going on at work, that you shouldn't worry. Whether or not you buy it, you tell him he can always talk to you. Other than that, if he doesn't want to talk about it you don't try to force him and simply respect his privacy

This sends him even further into his own head. He knows he's not a good person. He knows that every day he goes to work to do terrible things. And yet, you just trust him regardless. You're too good for his bad self. If he proposes and you say yes, would that simply trap you? Yet, its exactly because of all that that he wants to stay with you

It takes him a few more months, but he makes up his mind. After all, he likes to get what he wants. And he wants you. So everything else be damned

Wesker is a very observant man. He knows your likes, your dislikes, your favourite places, and your favourite activities to do together

It's with this knowledge that he plans his proposal. It won't be grand, he'd rather save that for the wedding itself, but it's personal and it's surprisingly sweet. So sweet it actually catches you off guard. At first you think something's wrong. It's not that he is never sweet or attentive otherwise, it simply comes very out of the blue

It's perfect though. When he pulls a ring out if his pocket, a beautiful ring that suits you perfectly, there's no doubt in your mind about your answer
