Meet the hot (mess) principal at Springfield Elementary, Sawyer Skinner!

(original Simpsons: Tapped Out art under the cut)

[klein-sodor-bahn]

Charlie with a top hat

Arguably one of my favorite styles for her. She cuts her hair, because Henry accidentally lays down on it during cuddles. He has the same issue but they were able to fix it with braiding his hair. But Charlie despises braids so she cut it. Does Henry miss her long hair? Yes, but he does dig the short style especially when they both wear a suit.

[bubsmiraculousau]

These are my OT5 brainstorm pages. Elaborations on how I got to these below! I reference concept pages so if you see any pictures you don't recognize that's why. <3

First up is Cat Noir who I think is already perfect lmao. For my version though I wanted to lean closer to his PV design because I love it, like his larger triangle nose (you can't really see it at the angle in my drawing but it's there I swear!), the bigger bell, the more elaborate belt, etc.... so basically everything ... just in my style instead.

With my designs I think that whenever someone transforms into their miraculous persona it's based on what they think a hero looks like or what they think is cool. I think Adrien reads a lot of comic books and is a fan of characters like Batman (relatable for him LOL), Catwoman, and Nightwing, so his suit reflects that kind of vibe.

Extra: I decided that Ladybug and Cat Noir's masks go all the way up their foreheads because it looks nicer in my 2D style with their bangs haha.

Next up is the one and only Ladybug! Unpopular opinion but I actually like the all red suit! My hypothetical series would be a webcomic, and I feel like in action scenes the red differentiates her from Cat Noir esp at a distance, and more red style keeps their color ratios even.

I like the ladybug designs with a bunch of black sections they're very cute! Just not for my au. (I think it's just me but I find drawing the ladybug designs with inverted red dots to feel sacrilegious in a way,,, just my neurodivergent brain lol)

And I am a long ribbons truther, I love them and they can be very expressive. Also I knew I wanted Marinette to have a more vertical circular eye shape because her shape vibe is definitely a circle (Adrien's is triangle) and it reminded me of the eyes for the main girl in princess jellyfish (I've never seen it, love the style tho)

Her hair is a more bright blue to contrast her hair against her suit, and make her look more cartoonish. I imagine her idea of a superhero comes from kids shows and some magical girl anime. So her hair has a plastic shiny texture to it because when she thinks 'superhero' she thinks of kids toys. Also I just like color! The blue kinda gives comic spiderman vibes imo (the version with the light blue instead of the navy)

Queen Bee definitely changed the most throughout the design process. I really like her in-show design so I just tweaked it to be more my vibe. Adding a crown because she's a Queen.

Something that I've noticed is that Alya and Chloe actually share a lot of traits (There's even some old concept notes where I believe Alya and Chloe either switch names or roles at some point?? The miraculous concept info rabbit hole is real y'all) and I think this comes through in their final designs.

Like they both share a middle part, which bothers me for some reason, so I decided to give Chloe a little Ariana Grande side part into a ponytail.

I wanted each character to have a cool little piece on their costume, so I tried these little hip things to make her more commanding and girlboss, but currently her weapon is similar to ladybug's (but more like one of those hair ties w the little disco balls on them) and it would sit on her hip and would clash w her hip thingies, so I just decided to make her weapon the hip things instead, combining the two.

Something else that bothered me a lot was that Rena was the only one with white on her costume. Everyone has black but she's the only one with white... my brain says that this cannot be. So I tried to give Bee some fun white fuzzy bits but the texture just was too different...

And then I had the mega-brain idea to make her hair white to tie in the white from Rena. Her and Cat Noir both having blonde hair irked me as well LOL so this hit two birds with one stone. I wanted her hair to be sharper and more aggressively drill shaped because of her abrasive personality haha.

After that, is Carapace. I had an idea for him from the start because I felt like his in-show design just doesn't match his personality... I couldn't make his outfit all loose because I wanted to stick generally to the miraculous suit formula, but I feel like 'skin tight suit' just isn't his vibe. So he has a kind of hammer pants situation.

I think they capture Carapace's b-boy ninja turtle vibe while still looking like a miraculous outfit. Though I decided later that I wanted the pants to be a lighter color for contrast and the visor to be white (to tie in that Rena Rouge white).

Lastly is Miss Rena! Something that bothered me (back on the similarities to Chloe) was that they both have ponytails (yes I know I'm crazy). Even though they have very different textures I just wanted each of them to be distinct from each other. So I put her hair down and just dramatized her regular hairstyle.

Also her and Queen Bee both have black gloves to their upper arms, which, you guessed it, bothered me. So I shortened Rena's to just reach her elbow.

I wanted her to look like a magic-man, her illusion powers evoke a showmanship energy to me. I imagine her and Cat Noir are quite the dramatic theater kid-esque duo.

So, for drama I tried some flowy arm bits, which I think ended up just looking a little strange, so I'll pocket that idea for something else. Then, I tried to add her coattail from the show, but it ended up looking a little frumpy, not the drama I wanted.

I ended up making her coat more triangular in the front, to give off the vibe of a magician's vest, and changed it to solider red/orange double coattails, which I think makes her more magic-man-ish. And I think the white ends made it too busy.

So those are my hero designs! I'm still working out Hawkmoth and Mayura, esp Hawkmoth because I am not good at drawing masculine older men...

If y'all want LESS of the artistic process let a girl know lol! I know some ppl like it but this is very long,,, all my drawings will not have text this long! thx for reading if you did tho xx

(Danny’s wearing a hazmat suit that covers his face during the accident but nobody can hear him speak through the suit)

Hazmat Danny:*gets recruited to Justice League because nobody actually can tell that he’s a child.*(they just think he’s short, this weirdly conflicts with records they’ve seen on time travel adventures of his future self being built like a juggernaut)

Shazam , scoping him out with Solomon’s wisdom:*slides up next to him* “hey there new bestie!”

Just them gaslighting , gate keeping , and girlbossing their way to not being sorted with the other child soldiers(young Justice)

Danny simply communicates using ASL or another form of non verbal communication when he's Phantom.

Billy and Danny talk shit about absolutely everyone in a Ghostly form of non verbal communication (wisdom of Solomon really comes in handy for long unknown or dead languages).

Jegulus Batman au

So last week I wrote post about how Bruce and Harley are Regulus and Pandora variants and now I can't stop thinking about Jegulus Batman au

Regulus as Bruce Wayne, but more like Battinson!Bruce instead of comics!Bruce. In the day time he is Regulus Black, awkward rich orphan who looks like he wants to kill himself everytime he steps outside. By night time he becomes Batman, a mask vigilante, who fights criminals of Godric's Hollow, the most corrupt city in all of England. It's his way to repay for his parents' sin, part of Hollow's corruption. His only help is a family butler, Kreacher, who really wishes Regulus finished the med school instead of running around in bat suit

James as the Cat, a professional thief with a heart of gold whom Regulus keep failing to catch. He won't admit it but there were few times when he let James escape. Mostly because James often steal from people that deserve it but also because he loves the thrill of a chase. Overtime the two of them start working together on few cases and slowly fall in love

Pandora as Harley Quinn, once a young psychologist turn a henchwoman of Regulus's biggest villain, Tom Riddle, turn an anti-hero who help Regulus, James and their allies fight evil. Her biggest strength is psychoanalyzing her enemy and getting inside their heads. She and Reg went to med school together before he dropped out, years later while working together she conected the dots and realised that this grumpy bat and that grumpy boy from med school are the same person. Arguably Reg best friend

Lily as Poison Ivy, an ecoterrorist with a power to control plants and Pandora girlfriend. Regulus often lets her and Pandora escape as they most attack factories that pollute the environment

Sirius is both Dick, Jason and Kate. Regulus older brother that after a death of their parents abdicated from a role of a Black family heir and started a life for himself outside of Hollow. He came back to Hollow after seeing Batman on the news an immediately recognising his little brother. Was killed by Tom Riddle, but resurrected but whoever is Al Ghul in this au, I haven't decided yet. He return to Hollow as Red Hood, mad at Reg for "replacing" him and not killind Riddle. It took a while but eventually they startes working together again because at the end of the day they are family

Emmeline as Red Robin, Sirius "replacement", a smart girl that figured out Regulus secret identity and girlbossed her way into becoming his new sidekick (not my joke)

Remus as both Barbara and Renee, the only good cop in an all of Hollow. Later he ends up resigning from the force and starts working for Regulus but hacking into city cameras and becoming his eyes and ears

Mary as Spoiler, daughter of a minor villain name Cluemaster. He was a terrible father so Mary decided to help Batman take him down. Now a member of the batfamily, Emmeline's girlfriend and Regulus's biggest bully (affectionately)

Barty as the Riddler, arguably the smartest man in all of Hollow who loves creating chaos and asking people riddles. Luckly for Regulus Barty is also an attention whore that needs everyone to know that he is the smartest person in the room so he often leaves clues for Regulus to follow

Evan as Penguin, the biggest kingpin, started out as a son of a poor housemaid and climp his way into becoming the most powerful mobster in all of Hollow. For some reason Barty is the only person he really trust in this world (he has a massive crush on him)

Dorcas as Scarecrow, a scientist fascinated by fear and the only person in the world with enough brain power to keep up with both Pandora and Barty

Marlene as Firefly, purely because I think Marlene deserves a flamethrower

Peter as Two-face, Reg's best friend turn enemy with half of his face burned

And Narcissa and Alice as Green Arrow and Black Canary

Harry as Helena and Luna as Lucy

Also Xeno as Rick Flag because I love both of them so much <3

Thinking aboutttttttt my Frozen au. And Darry in blue. Would it be a suit? A dress? Idk but I hope he slays either way. He gets so so stressed he leaves his kid brothers (thinks they’ll see him differently) to go to the forest and make flowy ice clothes

Soda being like Darry where did you GO, I found a guy I’m in love with can you please come back and like grant him permission to ask for my hand in marriage. Darry you look very good in blue but you are also freezing our citizens can you girlboss a little less violently. He’s stressed because he doesn’t have either brother with him but to get one back he has to leave the other. Plus he’s reeling because when did Darry have powers and how did he not know about it???

Pony in the castle basically alone. On one hand it’s great, since they’ve all been basically shunned from the world and now he has the chance to go out; but on the other hand he’s never been without them before and he doesn’t know when they’ll come back, or if it’ll end up like a repeat of their parents

[captainsatspeed]

trying to think up a red dead teacher au seemed like fun at first but then i remembered they're all incredibly stupid which makes it considerably more difficult when assigning subjects.

my one big brain moment is that dutch is the principal and micah is the new vice principal who acts like they are the most powerful person in the school and everyone despises.

other characters below the cut!

arthur: he gives me woodwork teacher vibes. i considered art because he's such a good artist but he doesn't have the "slightly insane and doesn't know what's going on 90% of the time" energy of an art teacher.

john... a practical subject seems the only route, god bless him. he could also be a woodwork teacher? though since he's a rancher maybe agricultural science could technically work? (i'm irish, yes we have that as a subject here)

hosea gives maths. in a good way. a nice maths teacher. geography teacher suits him too.

pearson obviously home economics. his ass can’t cook for shit but his students all pass somehow

sadie pe. idk what other people’s impressions of female pe teachers are but mine have all been girlbosses who are also super nice (but god forbid you cross them.)

lenny english. he’s actually intelligent and can understand literature

charles is bugging me. he also gives woodwork teacher, but i’m also feeling geography. he’d have maps all around his classroom

sean is that one new teacher that nobody’s actually sure what subject he teaches. he just subs and occasionally goes out drinking with students

susan either french or science. strict but secretly loves a bit of banter

javier easily music

uncle is the janitor/caretaker who is actually the most popular staff member

i'm fairly stuck with everyone else, please feel free to add ideas!

[artzychic27]

I have a proposition AU. Coraline gets the butterfly miraculous and Wybie has the Peacock miraculous and they use it to get revenge

Actually, the Red Blitz he’s talking about is Coraline, but… MaleWife!Wybie and GirlBoss!Coraline make me happy!

Coraline is Nebula (There’s a “Butterfly Nebula” and the space thing makes me think of her star sweater. Got it? Okay.)

Nebula: Let’s get revenge on Brittany Wheeler and her army of skanks!

Obsidian Plume: No.

Nebula: But-

Obsidian Plume: No.

Nebula: How about just-

Obsidian Plume: Jonesy. No.

Nebula: Please?

Obsidian Plume: … Okay.

Coraline Akumatizes other Laika kids (Norman, Neil, Eggs, Winnie, Kubo, Kat, and Raúl. 5 Points to whoever knows what movies they’re from)

Wybie is a total mom to his Sentimonsters. He will spoil them rotten, and Coraline has to keep him from spending $500 on stuff for them

Anyway, they decide to give themselves from free therapy for their childhood traumas by sending Sentimonsters through the door to torment the Beldam

Coraline: Oh! Let’s send Cat’s Eye next!

Wybie: I’m not sending a baby after that maniac!

Coraline: They’re all barely a year old, they’re all babies.

Wybie: *Holds up Cat’s Eye* You look this baby in the eye and tell him he’s going harass a button-crazed maniac.

Coraline: … You’re gonna harass-

Wybie: Jonesy!

Nebula’s in a fancy-ass suit with slick-back hair because she’s a girl boss

If Nebula gets hurt, which is rare, Obsidian Plume’s fancy jacket comes off, and he will throw hands

So many headaches from having to sense people’s emotions

They take turns evilly stroking the cat

Can you feel it? Both dark and white, heavy and light, pressing against your temples and piercing your eyeballs --- the power to create, the power to destroy, the power to do anything...

i remember i had this portal au for the outsiders and i made it a post months ago but now i cant find it </33

i do know like the 2 main characters were like pony, angela, and curly i dont think i had a set “whos who” and “what happened” plot for the au so ill just

make one here

ALRIGHT SO

angela is GLaDOS, pony is chell, and curly can b wheatley i think thats pretty fitting for all of em

spoilers for portal atp of the post

angela glados backstory: really not much to change here!! if u dont know in portal glados used to b this human called caroline but long story short she was forced to live forever through glados but like oddly enough they r two different characters kinda??? its hard to explain but yea!!! but for this au im making it so that angela knew who she was before hand and shes still bitter and angry at everything and everyone, still violent, still has her fascination w getting ppl to solve the puzzles for science, and still tries to kill bc #girlboss

pony chell backstory: chell doesnt exactly have a set backstory so for this au ill just say that pony joined aperture bc he was broke as hell and his family rlly needed the money so he signed up to b a test subject

curly wheatley backstory: like i said, pretty much same backstory as wheatley, made as an extention of glados (or angela in this case) to make her docile and less violent, BUT BUT BUT instead of glados wanting to get rid of wheatley like in the game, angela lets him stick around bc she finds him interesting :P

im gonna b so honest w u this au isnt rlly lore based more like a what if, i thought of angela being rude and making snarky comments while ponys solving puzzles in a cool suit while curlys just being his regular idiot self and my neurons activated

[shylittlefr0g]

Hello friends.

I have an idea. (From an AU)

I been playing Ace Attorney from a while (I complete the first game and my friend gift me the trilogy, so im playing the other two games) and I still having a hyperfijation with SxF (atleast from now). So, lets combine them.

If you don't play Phoenix Wright, Ace Attorney, you should play it, I recomend it. (and watch out, because i gonna give a few spoilers about the games and they history).

Let's begin.

Let's explain the characters and WHY I choose them.

Anya Forger (as Phoenix Wright):

- Ex-art student on collage, with a terrible ex-boyfriend.

- She became a lawyer after being saved by Sylvia (the Mia Fey of this universe) and having a crush on the-one-shouldn't-be-mentioned (Damian)

- Terrible lawyer, with a horrible luck, and mostly being save because of someone else or when her two neurons make contact the evidence.

- George (Larry) is her best friend, and in her first trial, she must save his ass.

- She actually doesn't look like a lawyer, because she is poor (?), so she has to use an old suit from his father (the green one) with some arrangement to be from her size made them by her mom (disastrous, but it works)

Damian Desmond (as Miles Edgeworth):

- Traumatized.

- He still having a crush on Anya, but he prefer be punched on the ribs that say "I love you" to her.

- After they first real encounter (the second case) Damian send his butler (Ewen) and his personal tailor to make her a good suit (because he wants that his rival to look presentable on court... Because he hates her!)

- Emile (Gumshoe) is his right-hand man, he trust blindly on him (and that's why when Emile misses something, he cuts his salary)

- Wanted to be a lawyer like his mother, but now he only has traumas.

Becky Blackbell (as Franziska Von Karma)

- SHE HAS A WHIP.

- SHE IS A GIRLBOSS.

- She isn't part of the family Desmond (she conserves her lastname) because she is Damian's cousin who wants to revenge the figure of Donovan Desmond.

- The option B is that Franziska is Demetrius, but i like Becky more because she has a whip and can whip Anya on the middle of the court. Pretty fun character.

- She isn't the bestie of Anya on this universe, but they got respect for eachother (Becky considers that she is a very capable woman and fights to achieve her goals, just like her.)

George Glooman (as Larry Butz)

- Idiot.

- He only could be a cheated, accused of murder, and get away with it, all in at least 24 hours.

- He isn't a big friend with Damian since they were kids and they argued about who is gonna takes Anya's hand to marriage. (spoiler: nobody remembers it clearly, they just hate each other because they are idiots.)

- Like Larry, he ended up being an artist.

Sylvia Sherwood:

- Mia Fey for this universe.

- really intelegent.

- Helped Anya on the past and became her tutor/friend when she decided be a lawyer.

- Still watching Anya since Ken (The Maya of this universe) and her became partners.

- She and Ken are family (aunt/nephew), when she has to keep info, she invites him to eat something. After the first trial, Anya and they were going out to eat, but something happen.

Ken Sherwood (as Maya Fey)

- Took Sylvia lastname.

- symptom of "being at the wrong time and place"

- He was arrested more times that you could imagined.

- Esper still on training. (Always in his hippie-clothes so gets bullied by that)

- Only can use his powers when the situation is crítical. (Only in contact with Mia because she is from his bloodline)

Melinda and Donovan Desmond:

- Melinda (32) was a really good defense lawyer who makes everything to get a Not Guilty sentence. Loved by everyone.

- Her husband, by the other hand, wasn't loved by everyone, mostly because of his tactics has a prosecutor where... Well, you know, cuestionables.

- They had two sons. Demetrius and Damian.

- Melinda was killed by someone non-identified on a elevator. Right infront Damian.

- Since then, Donovan raised his youngest son to be a bastard at court (just like him).

...Play Ace Attorney, pirated Nintendo is morally correct.

[that-darn-clown]

alright, au time.

so. here's what happens Canonically in the Rewrite:

Cassidy gets bitten and end up talking to his Dead Besties in his coma

he promises everyone, before waking up, that he'll help free everyone and bring his father to justice.

Next Two Months Go On As Normal, And William Attempts To Gaslight Gatekeep Girlboss His Way Out Of His Son Hating Him.

Gaslight Gatekeep Girlboss-ing Doesn't Work; Cass Is Still Pissed

William strangles Cass in his sleep.

Cass, now dead, is unable to help with freeing his besties; decides to pass the responsibility to Mike (who doesn't know about this until the events of SL in the Rewrite)

but...here's the au:

before William can start strangling his youngest son...Michael walks in.

now, Mike has been incredibly paranoid ever since Cass got hurt; he's practically been a worried mess the whole two months, practically following Cass wherever he went to make sure this kid was okay. in this timeline, Mike went to go check on his sleeping brother, found William in there and was like "Oh hey Dad, you checking in on Cass too? :D"

and that woke Cassidy up out of the deep sleep he was in.

Cass took one look at his dad just kinda being there and had the understandable reaction of "...Oh fuck, was he about to kill me?"

because here's the thing:

William had almost never checked on him in the middle of the night before this. it was usually just Michael who checked on him.

after this, Cass' behavior just seemed to get weirder to the rest of his family. he'd place heavy (or heavyish) furniture in front of his door. when William caught onto that, he started hanging bells from his doorknob and giving Mike a specific knocking pattern to do. some nights, he doesn't even take the risk. he just goes to sleep in Mike's room.

so yeah, things are...tense in the house now.

Alex chills out eventually, and he and Cass get to a point where they can be in the same room without the tension being fucking noticeable. exchanges like this still happen though:

Alex: Christ Cass, why are you such a fucking weirdo?

Cassidy, not missing a beat: I dunno Alex, why did you almost kill me at my birthday party?

Alex: 😦 OKAY DAMN CHILL THE FUCK OUT-

unfortunately, Cass and Will are tense around each other all the time now. and dear god, it's so thick i'm surprised anyone in this household can breathe.

NONBINARY CASS LET'S GO!!!

so 1987 rolls around. William kills more kids. Cass finds out. things are even more tense.

but now Cass is old enough to like. actually do things now.

William asks Michael to work one night after Jeremy gets promoted? Cassidy asks if they could help Mike out that night. they're basically the main reason Mike didn't die that night.

they also got to see their friends again, so :D

process repeats for Fnaf 1, basically.

and then we get to William's death.

he decides to drag Cassidy, now pretty much grown up, to "help him" with some things. he pretty much just tells Cass to stay in the backstage area and "check things" back there.

and then Cass hears a lot of metal clanging and screeching.

they're not stupid. they know what that's about.

and they are pissed.

when William gets cornered in that room, Cassidy seems to, surprisingly, "help" him. hey, you tricked those kids when you got into the suit, right? why not hide in there and trick them again? hm, now that i think about it you should back up a little bit. no particular reason, just so they aren't too close to you, y'know?

and the next thing William knows, he's standing under a place where the roof is leaking, and the springlocks set off.

so yeah, Cass is still the one that basically killed their dad.

Mike asks them about it, but they just kinda go "Yeah, no clue where he's at, Mikey. I'm sure he's fine, though ^-^"

that's all the things i have full ideas for atm but!! au where shit's still bad, but Cass is still alive and doing shit 👍

Yippee my sweet boi is alive!!! Also Cass and Mike setting up ways to know that it's Mike checking on cass and not will... my heart 🥺

Also I need to draw william wearing a crop top that says gaslight gatekeep girl boss.

(And henry wearing a shirt that says gaslight and has a gas can and a box of matches on it)

[shooks-stupid-stuff]

it's time to be annoying about masumii and takoshi again :]]]]]]]]

only this time, it's au versions (the base concept is what if they swapped places, but in like a masumii was born to takoshi's parents and takoshi was born to masumii's parents so they had the other's lives and genetics and yada yada you get the point way-)

so here, shitty pen doodles (which are inaccurate actually bc i decided to make masumii's turtleneck sleeveless like she usually has)

more art (from aggies)/inane ramblings under the cut, bc there is A Good Amount and i don't want this post to take up too much space xjdhdjdk-

ok so takoshi first (ft a knife pika drew hurtling towards him which inspired the 2nd doodle fjcnck) and like. this is just takoshi if he had enough time to cope with his trauma and stop relying on his masking tendencies constantly, and therefore he is just A Little Guy. A Little Goober, if you will. silly and goofy and kinda pathetic but very well meaning and kind. i like him :]

...he is still very depressed though don't be fooled, the trauma is Not As Bad Anymore but it still affects him deeply.

and now masumii (ft. a bunch of Little Guys drawn by pika) (i didn't feel like drawing her suit jacket also) who is Significantly More Depressed. unlike takoshi she doesn't even try to pretend she has any light left in her eyes, girl is dead inside and dead serious about everything. also unlike takoshi, she's incredibly competent at running a business, you love to see a girlboss win

the interesting part about this au is that, since takoshi and masumii have what i have begun to refer to in my head as "genderlocked trauma", by switching places they kinda avoid the worst of it (and while i definitely could have just changed stuff slightly to make it still work like in the boy masumii/girl takoshi au that i ALSO have solely bc they would have a very comedic height difference, that kinda feels like it would be cheating in this au and also is boring bc i've already done it-)

emphasis on kinda.

because that doesn't mean they can't have DIFFERENT trauma-

overall though, in broad strokes bc i don't wanna get into the trigger-warning hell that is their backstories, takoshi still has his masking tendencies and struggles with doing things that aren't in line with other's perception of him, even if it's not what he wants to do or how he wants to act (this is where the whole flirty fuckboy act comes from) and masumii still has her general disdain for, well. flirty fuckboys, as well as her general abrasiveness towards people she has a bad impression of (and people in general, though normally she does conceal that one (albeit normal masumii does a better job of this)) and she is still incredibly sensitive about people touching or even seeing her neck, which do still have horrible scars(?) on it in this iteration (i'm not 100% sure scars are the right term but idk what is so)

the most interesting part to me though is how this au changes the way their deep rooted self hatred manifests. for takoshi, he really does hate himself, but he knows that all he does by punishing himself is hurt the people who he cares about, and who care about him in turn. and so even though that is something that just makes him more miserable, which he feels he deserves, he's the kind of person who is willing to do ANYTHING to ensure his loved ones are happy, so... he tries to treat himself kindly, and to let himself be happy even if he feels he doesn't deserve it, for their sake. this contrasts regular takoshi, who has absolutely no one to lean on for support, and has a self hatred so deep that he's on the brink of quite literally losing himself since he is pretending to be someone he isn't literally anytime he's around another person. which is like 95% of the time since he almost always has a girlfriend. he doesn't think he deserves anything, and that since people don't want the real him from him, he should just disappear. it's bleak, he's in a really bad place .

masumii, on the other hand, also really hates herself, but she actively takes it out on herself because she thinks she's a good for nothing disgusting hypocrite who deserves everything she gets. she hardly lets others get close enough to help, both because she feels she doesn't deserve it and also because she's incredibly wary about opening up or being vulnerable. and when she does start to enjoy being around someone, she does all she can to deny and suppress those feelings, because in her mind she doesn't deserve to be happy, and no one would want to be near her if they knew the truth (this is something that takoshi also feels, though to a lesser degree than masumii). this is actually pretty similar to regular masumii, with the main difference being WHAT trauma has brought on those specific feelings and responses. regular masumii has also had a lot more time to process said trauma, but (unlike this au's takoshi) has been unable to raise her opinion of herself at all, simply getting better at hiding it rather than actually healing and slowly starting to get over it (that said, regular masumii is at the very least a bit better about her self hatred than this au's masumii; it's still there and strong, but she can force it down and ignore it atleast partially if need be).

yeah i just. i love these guys so much, they're both such horribly broken people but they're able to find love and joy in each other and help each other heal and man that's just so fucking beautiful. it's not like things get better immediately, it still takes time (hell, corporate hell masumii and takoshi who have been together like 60+ years are STILL struggling with their trauma, and they're comedic relief characters-) but they're able to help each other make it through each day, one at a time, and learning to love themselves in the process.

i fucking love these two terrible straight people, thank you for coming to my ted talk
