I'd like to ask anyone with knowledge on any of these characters if they count as magical girls! I find the magical girl genre hard to define so it's more of 'you know it when you see it' thing, and I haven't seen these shows/games so some help would be good!
Pigella (Miraculous Ladybug)
Iris (Lolirock)
Ginko (Yuri Kuma Arashi)
Lalafin Nonomiya (Revue Starlight)
Altea Bellerose (Lovestruck, Love and Legends)
Elysia (Honkai Impact 3rd)
Frasei (Strawberry Seafoam)
these are all submissions i got that i'm not all that familiar with and couldn't figure out with a quick google search
edit: i've finalised the bracket so i'm not looking for any more answers now!
#millie.txt#this is just to help inform my opinion#i might still make different decisions!#i just find it difficult to set hard limits#since i could say a character has to have a transformation to count#but cardcaptor sakura is a magical girl who just wears cute outfits her friend makes from what i've heard#i could say their source has to be from anime but there's a ton of clearly magical girl media from other mediums and places in the world#there's always exceptions to any rules you could place that make a specific rule set not include a bunch of classics#one thing that stands in my way is the combination of the idol anime genre with magical girls

Because I feel like it, here's an in-depth breakdown of how fics involving Alastor are tagged in regards to Asexual Alastor type tags and Aromantic Alastor type tags. Also just to note I definitely messed up my counting on this post where I reference the same tags. This time I'm adding the entire tag (which in Al's case includes Hazbin Hotel in parentheses). Additionally, AO3 doesn't have gray-romantic tags, just gray-sexual tags, and I'm only going by canon tags (which are tags that have been wrangled). I will also be adding the fic counts for Allosexual Alastor and Alloromantic Alastor.
In the Hazbin Hotel fandom tag, which has 31,740 fics, 19,911 of which are also tagged with Alastor as a character:
Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 2,454 fics
Aromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 1,493 fics
Aromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 1,401 fics
Demisexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 556 fics
Demiromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 208 fics
Grey-Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 111 fics
Demiromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 42 fics
Allosexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 15 fics
Alloromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 8 fics
In the Alastor/Lucifer Magne | Morningstar tag, which has 3,515 fics:
Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 1,090 fics
Aromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 307 fics
Aromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 283 fics
Demisexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 135 fics
Demiromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 77 fics
Grey-Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 54 fics
Demiromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 7 fics
Allosexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 2 fics
Alloromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 1 fic
In the Alastor/Angel Dust (Hazbin Hotel) tag, which has 2,608 fics:
Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 583 fics
Aromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 87 fics
Aromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 80 fics
Demisexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 65 fics
Demiromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 10 fics
Grey-Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 21 fics
Demiromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 2 fics
Allosexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 9 fics
Alloromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 3 fics
In the Alastor/Vox (Hazbin Hotel) tag*, which has 2,111 fics:
Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 796 fics
Aromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 403 fics
Aromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 388 fics
Demisexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 73 fics
Demiromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 34 fics
Grey-Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 12 fics
Demiromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 6 fics
Allosexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 1 fic
Alloromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 1 fic
*This includes Radiosilence fics.
In the Alastor/Charlie Magne | Morningstar tag, which has 1,120 fics:
Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 100 fics
Aromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 22 fics
Aromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 17 fics
Demisexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 30 fics
Demiromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 7 fics
Grey-Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 13 fics
Demiromantic Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 2 fics
Allosexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 0 fics
Alloromantic Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) - 0 fics
Let's now count up the total number of fics tagged with one of the tags I mentioned aside from Allosexual Alastor and Alloromantic Alastor, under the assumption that no fic is tagged with more than one of them (which I know isn't true but we're going off of that anyway):
In the Hazbin Hotel fandom tag - 6,265 fics
In the Alastor/Lucifer Magne | Morningstar tag - 1,953 fics
In the Alastor/Angel Dust (Hazbin Hotel) tag - 848
In the Alastor/Vox (Hazbin Hotel) tag - 1,712 fics
In the Alastor/Charlie Magne | Morningstar tag - 191 fics
Let's also look at the specific percentages of fics in each ship tag that have some form of Asexual Alastor or Aromantic Alastor tagged, rounded to the nearest whole number:
In the Hazbin Hotel fandom tag - 20%
In the Alastor/Lucifer Magne | Morningstar tag - 56%
In the Alastor/Angel Dust (Hazbin Hotel) tag - 33%
In the Alastor/Vox (Hazbin Hotel) tag - 81%
In the Alastor/Charlie Magne | Morningstar tag - 17%
I would like people to keep in mind that the numbers for Alastor/Vox don't account for Radiosilence. If you want the specific numbers for how many Alastor/Vox fics on AO3 are also tagged with One-Sided Alastor/Vox (Hazbin Hotel), about 23% of them are, and 149 of those (31%) are tagged with Aromantic Asexual Alastor.
Additionally, this is only fics where the author tagged that Alastor is some variant of asexual, aromantic, or both. There's the possibility that more are untagged.
A grand total of .11% of Hazbin Hotel fics also tagged with Alastor have him written to be allosexual/alloromantic, so just under 80% of all fics tagged with Alastor are either stories where Alastor's asexuality is irrelevant, left vague, or just not tagged for whatever reason. Only 20% of fics being tagged with Alastor being somewhere on the aroace spectrums doesn't mean that only 20% of fics involve Alastor being aroace.
Anyway please take these stats and use them to inform your opinion of Alastor fanfiction
Also, some bonus statistics:
Non Sex-Repulsed Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) Stats:
About 3% of Hazbin Hotel fics in general
About 14% of Radioapple fics
About 5% of Radiodust fics
About 8% of Radiostatic fics
About 2% of Radiobelle fics
Sex-Favorable Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) Stats:
About 1% of Hazbin Hotel fics in general
About 1% of Radioapple fics
A little over 3% of Radiodust fics
About 1% of Radiostatic fics
A little over 1% of Radiobelle fics
Sex-Favorable Asexual Alastor (Hazbin Hotel) Stats:
About 1% of Hazbin Hotel fics in general
About 1% of Radioapple fics
About 2% of Radiodust fics
Under 1% of Radiostatic fics
Under 1% of Radiobelle fics
Additionally a little over .5% of Hazbin Hotel fics in general are tagged with Sex-Repulsed Alastor (Hazbin Hotel). In terms of Alastor ship fics, the Sex-Repulsed Alastor tag is most popular with Radioapple fics, second most popular with Radiostatic fics, and Radiodust and Radiobelle tie for third place.
Again, please use these stats to inform your opinion before harassing people because you aren't comfortable with Alastor not being sex- and romance-repulsed
#i will never shut up about how people treat alastors asexuality#hazbin hotel#hazbin hotel alastor#alastor the radio demon#hazbin hotel fanfiction#ao3#ao3 stats#sorry if the counts are off at all btw#just. PLEASE use this post to inform your opinion of how the fandom treats alastor's asexuality in fanfiction#i spent an hour of my day doing this to prove a point. help

I appreciate the dedication to preserving niches but im too bored with the concept of labels and ultimately uncaring towards circlejerk communities and maintaining a "lifestyle", perhaps at this point of burnout uncaring towards aesthetics altogether, to be able to meaningfully participate.
#i appreciate them from far away though and i like Looking at them but ultimately i just cant feel kinship#or a passion to try to join any one specific group#sorry for being a sigma lone wolf or whatever#i like to stay informed on j fashion and such but sometimes some of the conversations i see...i cant help but think...#who cares...? well clearly there are ppl who do. and i respect that. i just cant get myself fully invested#of course as always i have my opinions of other ppl but im not attached to customizing my irl avatar enough to participate myself#i do envy people who can care to maintain a style and participate in the lifestyle#anything any purpose any pleasure you can attach yourself to is worthy. not beyond criticism but worthy nonetheless

I just have to remind myself sometimes that no matter what anyone else says, the way a piece of media makes me feel and the positive impact it has had on my queer identity is valid, and that tearing myself apart thinking I have to defend it or questioning my own place within queer communities is not at all important when compared to the almost tangible sense of 'rightness' that piece of media helped me to feel about myself.
#just something i've been pondering the last few days#kind of like no matter how much people debate or i suppose theoretically deconstruct media featuring queer stories#the most important thing is how it makes a queer person feel#and I do think it is of course a good thing to ensure queer stories are executed with respect and authenticity#but there's this grey area in fandom spaces in which people may have found rep from a 'unreliable' source i suppose#or something which is queerbaiting- sherlock springs to mind for example yet if people have been able to explore and nurture their own#queerness through that media does that therefore mean their experience is invalid? i don't think so#and my worry is the more we focus on theory the less we focus on emotion and therefore the actual queer experience itself#and sure theory can inform the queer experience and ensure the media is a 'healthy' site of queer identity formation and identity aid#but at the same time scorning or being rude to those who have found certain media an aid is not the right approach to be taking#especially as queer experiences are so wide ranging that one person's idea of 'good' representation is someone's else's of 'bad'#and that unless a piece of media is clearly offensive in its portrayal of queer experience there has to be some benefit of doubt#I think we're still in a period of progression in media espc tv where queer creators are coming to the fore of their own stories#and we've got to 'live and let live' a little about where people are finding sights of queer validation and joy#and perhaps this a naive and simplistic way of thinking but i think queer people can either recognise when something isn't the best rep#but was helpful for them anyway and therefore in a way confer 'ownership' of the media to themselves in how they engage#or there is variety in queer experiences represented in media so that perhaps not everyone finds a 'site' of rep but that does not#therefore invalidate it or make it 'bad' representation#this is just my opinion and it'd be hypocritical for me to not now mention this is only formed from my own queer experience lol#so i'm not trying to tell anyone how to feel or anything just something i'm pondering

Koike Yumemi (小池夢実)
"...I'm Koike Yumemi. My age? ...Well, if you must know... I'm 26 years old... and I'm tired. Now, can you let me go back to sleep?"
Character Description
A rather reserved and aloof prisoner. She is constantly sleep-deprived and comes across as ill-tempered as a result of that, but is sooner to stare off into space and hold her tongue than cause a fight. She believes MILGRAM is a merely a dream that she'll wake up from eventually.
Yumemi is currently very despondent but appears to be responding positively to MILGRAM's environment, calling it 'calm' and 'relaxing'. Does not interact much with the other prisoners, preferring to sit and listen from the side-lines. If she chooses to speak, or someone asks her a question, she'll respond cautiously. Can also be pretty blunt if pushed.
Profile
Name: Koike Yumemi (小池夢実)
Age: 26
Birthday: 26th September (Libra)
Height: 167cm
Blood type: O
Image colour: Berry Violet (#8965A3)
Occupation: Unemployed (Former Occupation: Idol)
Voice Lines (Trial 1)
"...I'm a murderer? Well, that's a new one even for me. ...Oh? You're being serious? ...Sorry, it's just that I can't really tell if this is real or not..."
"Hey Guard, this dream kind of sucks right now. Can't you just let me drift off back to sleep so we can get to the good part?"
"I guess this isn't so bad... it's quiet here. And no one can leave or get in, right? Hm... are you sure? Have you checked the locks and stuff, just to double check?"
"Whether you forgive me or not... I don't really care anymore. You're not the first, and you won't be the last... judging people you barely know... yeah, sounds about right..."
Relationship Chart (Trial 1) (template credit goes to @clover0101 <3)
I did the thing! I put a little introductory post together for my milgram OC! 💜
As of now I've slotted her into the official milgram world, but if I ever have the willpower to make a whole other... *checks notes* ...9 prisoners + 1 guard, OR (more likely) can just slide her over to fellow mutuals OCs and have a communal milgram together, then I'll be doing that :)
If I find the energy and time in me, I really want to make comics/interrogation voice drama scripts/other art in general for my girl because I love her very much and I hope you'll come to love (or hate) her too! 💜
#milgram#milgram oc#ocgram#my art#I looked at a bunch of people's intro post structure bc I couldn't figure out how on earth to put this together lmao#also the wiki and official website helped. but I did it! and we are here! yay 🤠#I've a lot more information and lore under my belt but I'm holding my cards for now okay 😈#you'll just have to ponder and ruminate what is going on with this sleepy individual hehe#koike yumemi#🪳#I told you she had fail opinions on everyone I warned you guys

actually, having a kind of revelatory moment here of if HRT was something i have been considering for this long, but has remained inaccessible to me, then that means i Do actually have opinions about my appearance/presentation, so just because i can't take That Particular step doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of other avenues i could be pursuing (ie, clothing/accessories/etc.) that i just haven't let myself up until this point. like i don't have to shove it All aside just because there's one thing i can't get -- I'd probably still wind up a lot happier if I took those other steps I've spent all these years ignoring
#N posts stuff#like what i mean is; the nearest informed consent clinic is like 80 miles away. theoretically some people could pull that off probably#but i can barely do 5-10 mile drives so that's fundamentally inaccessible. the realization is that IF it was closer#the probability of me actually pursuing that is actually kind of high. not even because i feel a particular NEED for it#hrt is one of those things that for Me is like 'i just think it would be Cool. i don't need it but i might be happier trying it'#BUT one thing i've consistently had problems with is that i Do Not really buy myself clothes because i always get caught up on cost#like 'if i don't really care That Much why should i invest in it' thing. i've been in that rut for most of my life i'd say#complicated by the fact taht i do depend on my mom's advice/help for a Lot of things and we have fundamentally incompatible styles#so not being able to agree on things makes it hard to actually Pursue what i want in these areas#but if leading up to researching clinic options i was both thinking 'i'd spend the money on this' AND 'i'd completely#disregard my mother's opinions on this' in order to pursue it; then since it's inaccessible to me i Should be taking those core convictions#and bringing them to the things i Can change/access and take Those steps instead#to use a wildly different metaphor - the vacation thing of 'wherever you go there You are' -> HRT is the big expensive vacation#but if my clothes are still something i'm not happy with then how much genuine satisfaction would i get out of my appearance after#taking those Big Steps. since the little ones have been left completely in the dust. you know?#no one asked but tumblr is like the only medium i use where i actually go back and look at things from the past#so if i have some kind of revelation about my life it has to go on tumblr if i want to remember it.#(like sure i Could keep journals but actually reading back through them makes me nauseated lmao. so not very helpful in practice)

hot girls (gn) watch once upon a time while they stare at a blank word doc and a news article about ai making up legal cases
#my rough draft is due in eight hours. its midnight.#i cant sleep until its done but i can't focus either. im hungy#it shouldnt be hard. its short and i know my opinion is correct but.#it doesnt help that i have absolutely ZERO information about the assignment. nothing about format. nothing about sources.#just word count and apparently the school wide rubric for writing. no feedback on my thesis. or any other assignment ive done#i barely REMEMBER my thesis. i submitted it like a month ago. admittedly that one is a little on me for procrastinating the rest. but.

study smart not hard (altough both is best actually) this saying is so true
#my advice#but this saying is sooo true#i know some people at uni who study for exam so long and hard but then fail or just barely make it :(#like what are you doing? i don't mean this in a mean way but it doesn't have to be this difficult#i don't understand how some people can study for an exam for 2 weeks or even a month and still fail and i don't think they're stupid#or i don't see myself as particulary smart#but i guess they just waste their time a lot and i realized studying effective is so important#now everyone is a bit different and has to find what works best for them but there are certain techniques which are proven to work well#there is so much information on the internet on this look it up seriously#it made my life sm easier i never struggled in uni like i did in school and i get good grades#and if i ever struggled a bit it was because i started so late it was almost impossible to pass 😂#which is why to do both is still best 😂#but i actually always made it and i never failed an exam at uni (which i studied for)#(two i was fooled into to just try without studying bc it's easy lol)#i mean i shouldn't speak too soon but i already made it through some of the most difficult of my studies#ofc it depends on what you study how well this works but i'm speaking for myself#i once passed an exam with a B studying only 2 days as one of the best students while others studied 2 weeks#and got worse grades or failed#still studying only 2 days is stupidity don't do it 😅#so the techniques i find very helpful are ofc exam questions probably the best one#if there are none make your own#then blurting for which there are different ways but i like to just go over a topic and then write down everything i remember#then fill the gaps#quizlet is also great it's an app which allows you to create cards and then tests you in creative ways#videos can be helpful as well for summaries and using summaries in general is normally enough it saves you sm time#normally you don't actually need to know everything but you should be careful it's not a bad summary leaving out too much 😅#and i also like mindmaps bc i'm a very visual person#but all those tipps are mostly for remembering information so it doesn't work so well for other fields of study#well i hope this is somewhat helpful idk 🙈#oh and reading texts over and over again is the most useless in my opinion i don't remember much at all and it takes sm time

don't fucking fight me I know my shit that's why I make posts
#I collect information and say my opinions about it#trying to give me new information to prove your point won't help because!!!!#i know that!!!!!#i considered that!!!!!#i thought about it!!!!!#a lot!!!!!!!!#and then i made the damn post!!!!!#and didn't even tag it because i didn't want it to show up there!!!!!#and yet!!!!!!#this happened to me twice!!!!!#and this time i'm not even disagreeing because i said a fact not an opinion of mine#acting as if it's my opinion is just#ugh#tbh that's kind of what happened last time too#but that time was more bizzare#anyway when i say there is discourse I'm not saying I'm on any side of it#i just said it exists#and it does

god i need therapy and to move out
#aka i need to move out#idk how much longer i can take listening to my parents just say shit and have opinions and then expect me to feel the same way#and when i disagree suddenly i’m siding with the wrong people#when quite literally i’m trying to make you understand that your thoughts are not the only thoughts to be considered#while also trying to validate their feelings but that they’re not communicating at all and are taking it out on ppl#i am so so so tired of being the constant middleman between my family members and ultimately having to hear everyone say shit abt everyone#and expect me to immediately agree or understand#like girlies you can all be wrong and you all are and the fact that you aren’t willing to admit your wrongdoings is your first problem#your second was expecting me to hype you up and encourage your behavior#having to constantly remind myself that it’s not my responsibility to keep the peace or to solve my familial issues#and the one time i tried to explain this it was met with ‘no one’s asking you to’#which is true !!! but then why are ALL OF YOU complaining to me and only me#why are you burdening me with all of this information#and if i tell you i can’t handle it or don’t want to talk about it i’m suddenly the bad guy too#i can’t win here your honor !!! the only solution in which i win is to get OUT#and of course i can’t make anyone say or do or believe anything#i’m not naive enough to think i can#but sitting there silent isn’t helping and speaking doesn’t either and there’s no other good solution#it’s just exhausting

Hey so I doubt anybody cares about this given that my blog has like, 50 followers and half of them are inactive or old friends, but if anybody's been wondering why I have so few posts on here about Israel compared to other political issues it's because I'm not putting anything on here that isn't credibly sourced. I noticed quite a few posts containing misconceptions and some straight up hoaxes early on and I've just really not noticed anybody start to think more critically since then, so I'm just not posting anything unless I can take the time to verify it.
I think a large part of this is just that I'm on the English side of the internet and most people are not able to read Hebrew and Arabic so there's just going to be more misinformation than American current events. But ngl, there's been some stuff that I really can't understand why anybody would not immediately flag as a hoax unless motivated by anti-Arab racism or antisemitism of the conspiratorial variety.
Also I just have complicated feelings because I grew up very involved with Judaism and my first Rabbi was a hardcore Israeli Zionist, and I also spent a lot of time at Chabad which was also quite Zionist. So while from a logical & moral standpoint I am, as far as I can tell, quite anti-Zionist, there's just some personal feelings in the mix that are hard to let go of. So I'd rather not invite conversation unless it's with people I trust to be understanding because I grew up with an extremely biased view on this and there might be some ideas I still hold without realizing they're motivated by my upbringing and not the reality of the situation.
Again, I can say with 100% certainty that Israel's actions since October 7th have been reprehensible and that it is their actions in the years before that led things to this point, and that I wish Israel had at the very least not had such heavy British colonial influence in its' founding, if it was ever possible to found a morally good Jewish state in the first place.
#uh if you absolutely most know my exact opinion on things to follow me you're always free to message me#I just don't want other people's posts on here unless it's literally just a link to an article that I can go read & verify#After that whole Israeli troops are stealing Palestinians organs things I am just kind of. Not very trustful anymore#Or all the nonsense about Palestinians IQs or stuff about beheading babies that as far as I can tell is totally unfounded#Or the all the Jews need to go to Europe/New York/Just kill them all stuff#Just. There's a lot of random Americans with zero stake in this saying fucking whatever online#And when you've positioned everything as like. You need to have an opinion on this or you're a bad person#When there's also massive amounts of misinfo that also conveniently creates black and white narratives#It's just. Not a good combination! And a lot of well intentioned but ill informed people will blindly fall for it#So just. Trying to stick to stuff that I know can actually directly help people

TDI Advice wanted!
Hi TD fans! I'm planning a rewrite of TDI, the cast will be 18 for in-universe reasons (think legal contracts, I'm not gonna be weird about them). I'm aiming to make it more realistic and in line with the 2007 aesthetic, i.e era appropriate lingo & references, mobile phones are rare, homophobia is a bigger concern etc, but I'm wondering how far I should take it?
In the end I'll write what I enjoy, but should I lean more heavily into the gritty side of reality TV both on and behind the screen, include more notable sexism, potential slurs and creepy behaviours etc? The point is for there to be believable drama in-universe and the topics planned all have some merit to be present. I have some hard lines I'll never cross (see last tags on the post for those curious) and I want people familiar with the themes to feel seen rather than exploited reading it.
At the end of the day the cast are just youngsters getting to know each other and themselves. I want to humanize them and write believable conflicts without demonizing anyone, it is intended as a character driven story after all. But I also want to know what others think would make for an enjoyable read/take on the show.
The cast will inevitably diverge from their canon counterparts, but I am unsure how to handle certain characters, an example being LeShawna. She's clearly based on a racist stereotype, but her personality, background and lingo are a huge part of her appeal and I'd rather portray her in a better light than change her from the ground up. If you have any pointers I can keep in mind for her or anyone else you think is often portrayed poorly in canon or fanon then please let me hear your takes! This goes for non-TDI castmates as well, even if they don't show up in the story I wanna know what people think does and doesn't work for them and their tropes/traits cause it might still be relevant!
#Td#Tdi#Total drama#Id love any opinions no matter how personal or miniscule. Even outside of fic writing I love hearing theories/analyses.#Also: I already have some things very strongly set in stone so I won't change this project to perfectly appease someone else's vision#Some charas will inevitably be OOC at points but I am using canon information and what we know from stuff like other seasons and their bios#-as my basis for most things. Because while I want to explore some unrelated topics I still want this to be the TD cast. Not my OCs.#That said there will be personal headcanons thrown in. But I hope they flow well with canon and don't stand out as a sore thumb.#Some HCs might replace canon traits but only if I think they were bad/random or underdeveloped.#And if you have songs you think fit the campers pls send them my way! Good character playlists really helps w getting into their headspace#While I am a huge IOTS fan I don't intend to reference it in my work. No gore or character deaths because that stuff is too impactful both-#-for the characters and for the show in-universe. It would derail everything which is what makes IOTS work but is unfitting here.#All TWs will be listed once I start writing. I'm happy to tag niche phobias/squicks/TWs as well so if you're interested in reading but-#-worry that something specific might be included then just ask! No matter how silly it might seem I've got you covered.#What I won't include: SA nor heavy sexism/racism. I might not touch racism much at all outside of beauty standards/racist tv tropes.#Any heavy topic included will be approached with a lot of care and consideration for those affected. There will be 0 shock value inclusions

8. Do you have a favorite member of the Druid Circle? Is it the same as your Character's?
Sooooo... i didn't have a huge amount of interaction with the Druid Circle (by which I assume you're referring to the Act 1 Emerald Grove druids? Maybe I'm jumping the gun with this since I haven't finished the game yet whoopsies 😅 sorry if this is answering a different question than question 8 is supposed to be); Kagha's general behavior, plus Nettie trying to put me down soured me a lot on them. On top of that, the way that all the druids there were so willing to just... go with the flow of Kagha's callous disregard for the lives of the tiefling refugees made me disinclined to form deeper relationships with them.
I haven't been playing with a tremendous amount of distance between my opinions and those of my character for this playthrough; I don't like them very much, so Kar doesn't like them very much
#Karlach's gonna burn my dick off#<- that's my BG3 tag#tag novel#baldur's gate 3 spoilers#with that in mind though Kagha seems very much an exemplar of ''ruthless'' as defined by Katherine Applegate's character Marco:#it's not about being ''mean'' - it's about seeing the bright clear line from A to B#and not caring about anything that line might touch or cut through or burn on the way because You Can See The Solution#and I think on my next character I might play someone a little more ruthless in that style but Kar is much more determinedly gentle#in a ''you must *always* look for the option to help people and do as little harm as possible doing so'' way#my sister informs me that Kagha was actually taking orders from some other group with interests counter to that of the emerald grove druids#but i didn't discover that in my playthrough so all of the above about ''kagha is ruthless'' is certainly Kar's opinion#and still significantly my opinion (until i find that info on a future playthrough)#anyway my controversial opinion is that the emerald grove druids are--at best-- cowards with no deeper moral convictions#who will just blindly forge ahead with whatever horrible course of action the top druid of the grove says they should do
