I still do find it downright incredible in terms of the time that Look Outside came out and the current meme culture crossing paths the way that they do. And I'm specifically talking about Gen Z not fucking with jobs/ being employed like at all. Seriously the stars aligned for a game where you play as an unemployed 30 something year old who doomscrolls on social media whose only known hobby is gaming and eating shitty TV dinners whilst dodging rent to come out where that exact lifestyle is encouraged by Look Outside's demographic.

Like Sam is the ideal Gen Z icon, as of the current unemployment meme trend despite being well a 30 something year old dude. Being unemployed truly transcends all barriers, peace and love on planet earth.

thing is like. it is weird that we know basically nothing about Sakamoto's life prior to joining the war. We get a throwaway line from Gintoki secondhand about how his family were rich merchants from Tosa and. that's it. that's all we got. and it's kind of egregious because basically every other character save for the very minor-est ones have *some* kind of childhood/'youth' flashback (off the top of my head, the other egregious omissions are Bansai, Catherine, Shimaru and Matsudaira) but Sakamoto, despite being one of Gintoki's oldest and closest friends and a relatively key character in some arcs, just never gets any kind of backstory, nor does he ever mention a single thing about who he is, where he came from, or what his family are like.

And it's interesting because observing Sakamoto you realise he just kind of never talks about himself in general. We get his Kaientai backstory from Mutsu. The story behind his injury gets told as a wartime flashback but he's not recounting it to anyone (does anyone even know, besides the people who were there?) For someone as affable and open-hearted as he is, it feels quite strange that he's kind of a closed book insofar as who he is, outside of "guy who laughs a lot and loves ships and drinks probably too much and throws up more than he gets laid".

The internal monologue where he says he couldn't tell the other three how he really feels about them because they wouldn't want him around anymore makes me wonder how much of what you see is only what he's letting people see (in the same way he gets Gintoki's name right in a critical moment - demonstrating that he's been doing it on purpose the entire time) (i think it's also pertinent that he is crazy competent when he chooses to be, and has several times proven to be the vital catalyst in turning the tide of a bad situation, both in terms of tactical intelligence and negotiation skills.) Isn't it a bit weird that the guy who'd fight fiercely to defend Zura's name and recount his entire backstory from memory to assert how wrong his doubters are, would just never mention anything about himself, even in his own defence?

Idk. I know this is Overthinking Central over here and I also know it's probably just that Sorachi didn't bother writing a backstory for him (T.T) but it's also a fairly consistent character trait and I'm gonna need to start a 20 hour mind project minimum to figure out why I think it might be.

I do love Victor with brown hair, but him with auburn will always he my favourite. Give him auburn hair, curls medium ish length put him in a red sweater with its sleeves rolled up (see he owns one) and my soul is yours.

DPXDC Idea: Mother of Monsters Dan(yal)

Specifically Fem!Dan because I made this in mind with my Fem Danyal Au bUT. The best part about Dan is that I get to play dress up with her, and Fem Dark Dany is gonna go by Layal (pronounced lae-el) because it means "the nights" and it sounds similar to Danyal, and I think she'd choose that name to mock Dany. ANYWAYS

Mother of Monsters Danyal. She may be evil but she's an Al Ghul at her core (even with vlad's soul merged with hers - however, considering that Layal looks and sounds like Dany, she considers that soul to be the more dominant one.) and loves animals. And she might be heartless, but she adores the monsters of the infinite realms.

Mother of Monsters Layal who hates everyone but utterly dotes and adores on every manner of beast she comes across. Stealing the eggs and infant young beasts of the Infinite Realms to raise as her own because she wanted them. Her own island full of monsters, a monstrous menagerie of her own. She steals most often from poachers or exotic pet keepers and other menageries -- the full grown beasties can keep their young.

And with every monster she raises, she can shapeshift their features onto herself, allowing her to change her shape from humanish to any matter of monster or hybrid creature. She calls herself their mother, and them her children. Her precious little babies, capable of incredible mass destruction and mayhem.

From little griffins the size of kittens, to stymphalian vulture chicks, and leviathan young hatching from eggs the size of her pinkie, to creatures native of the ghost zone that didn't even have names in the living realm. There really wasn't a limit to what or who she would take in and she didn't limit herself to any form of mythology. If they were beasts and they were unwanted, she wanted them. And as such, amassed her own mini army of "children" willing to listen to her any command.

Earth doesn't know what hit it when she attacks them.

There are many monstrous forms she could take on, the first one I've thought of is a combination of various serpentine/reptilian features. The body of a naga -- her lower half long and serpentine, her upper still human -- with spiked fins connecting from the bottom of her arms to her sides, ever seen Sinbad where Eris goes "you might have seen my likeness on the temple walls" and her arms do that fin thingy? Same concept. Her hands are webbed and taloned, perfect for slicing through the skin of the living, and her teeth are needle-sharp and shark like. Her hair can either be spiny and feathery-like like the spines of a lionfish, or frilled like a frilled-neck lizard. It's perfect for dealing and doting on her reptilian and amphibian-inclined darlings.

I'm more of a fan of aus where Dan is a sibling of Danny's rather than their kid, so Layal's redemption(..?? probation?) proceeds with her legally becoming Danyal's "twin" sister, who had been lost to the foster system before the Fentons adopted Dany, and was only recently reunited with her. The two of them look so alike that the lie is easy to take root and spread.

Layal is very indignant to the fact that she's now ten years in the past and has to restart her menagerie all over again. Do you know how much blood and sweat went into raising those children? How dare you separate them from their mummy. Although she'll admit she does miss their juvenile years, so she won't mind (too much) needing to raising them again. Dany is helping her retrieve all of them though, dammit.

long story short: epic the musical's "Scylla" has a CHOKEHOLD on me and this is the result of it

Unlike her Dan counterpart, Layal's voice is dancing and sirenic. It's purposely alluring and motherly, in order to lure people into a false sense of security until she feeds them to her "children." Echidna doesn't have shit on her. She almost seems friendly and reasonable, until you get too close and realize it was all an act and she drops it to metaphorically swallow you whole. She's like an anglerfish that way. She and Dany both sound like Scylla from Epic.
