I have this hc (and maybe others have said this but hi I’m new here) where Sampo falls first and flirts hard and has fun but doesn’t think it’ll go anywhere, and when Gepard reciprocates finally or even maybe says ily to him, Sampo’s commitment issues strike
Oh fuck yes FUCK YES this is so so sososo good like 100% anon ur. AaughGGH.
totally agree w u that sampo fell first. very much in a sort of 'fuck im in love with this guy and nothing will come from it' way. like resigned to being stuck pining forever but also like. its comfortable. its familiar. nothing has to change this way.
his flirting and jabs and the winks he sends gepards way r like ya they are all to fuck w him and get under geps skin but its also Genuine. ya hes yelling bout how handsome gepard is after gep is left hacking his lungs out from a smoke bomb but Damn the captain does look good.
i think that like. any hint of reciprocation would get him antsy. kinda scared bout it. when gepard doesnt get mad but instead laughs when sampo says a shit pickup line he is absolutely on cloud nine but hes also terrified. hes never been tied down and he doesnt know how to settle and hes afraid of getting too close and too attached. its easier when no one takes him seriously or trusts him yknow? but he can manage gepard flirting back. kind of. like he stumbles more and stutters and cant handle it at all but its still not like gepard feels the same! its not like gepard Sees Him as anything beyond this game a theres
and as Soon as gepard actually tries to reach out to him and confess and find sampo out of their uniforms. sampo feels like a cornered animal

man the thing about beauty standards and being ugly and being pretty and being insecure is that ultimately you do just kinda have to Decide that youre pretty. like ultimately thats how you become pretty, or hot, or sexy. you have to just Decide that you Are. you have to recognize that its made up, its arbitrary, its subjective, and that people might disagree with you about it, and as much as you are able, you need to completely and utterly disregard their opinions on your appearance, and decide that youre pretty now. and THEN.
you need to find beauty in "ugly". you need to recognize that ugly is made up, that its arbitrary, that its subjective, and you need to be able to find the beauty in it all. and this means you cant bodyshame people. you cant body shame shitty celebs or politicians. you need to base your criticisms on the substance of their character and misdeeds and unhinged horrific opinions and not give a shit about what they look like. you cant go calling people ugly for being shitty. you cant go calling people ugly for looking A Way You Dont Like.
and then if you wanna really galaxy brain this shit you start using ugly as endearment. OBVIOUSLY do not fucking call other human beings ugly. that shit is far too loaded, its just Rude. Dont call specific features of people or even characters ugly cos thats also too loaded. as a term it has baggage. but you can see the ugly in tacky, loud, garish clothing, and it can be Good. you can see the ugly in a distinctive, horrible tiny car from the 90s, and it can be good. you can see the ugly in animals that have evolved to look the way they do, without a single thought of what humans find appealing. you can see the beauty and the freedom in "Ugliness". you can break out of this shit altogether and feel nothing but disdain for anyone who stoops to insulting your appearance if they disagree with you about shit. you can get completely out of the cave of these beauty standards. you can find it so freeing to revel.in letting yourself be ugly. in recognizing that the way you look and exist might be ugly to some people, and youre out of the cave enough to simply recognize. thats just your opinion and it doesnt matter. didnt ask.
you can look at ppl arguing about the correct amount of skincare products to use daily, the Correct Amount of makeup, and whether or not its radical to conform to beauty standards or defy them and argue about is it really conforming if visible makeup pisses men off, and you can say, well I dont care about any of that, I recognize the societal pressures of flawless skin and all that but you see,
I just want to look like a silly little clown :o3

umineko sliding scale as of rn for me to how sympathetic i find each character (not necessarily how much i like, just like. i get where they're coming from) as of right now bcs theres like a bunch more of the story so its bound to change.
"i was born to understand your visions" -> maria and shannon
"i really feel for you here" -> natsuhi and kanon
"yeah, i get it" -> kumasawa, jessica, kirie
"parts of you i cannot resonate with, but others i am either compelled by or can understand" -> battler and rosa
"no paticular thoughts" -> genji, the doctor i forgot his name,
"more of you i dont sympathize with than i do, but there's still elements" -> eva, hideyoshi
"you're gonna have to show me something more for me to understand where you're coming from" -> gohda, krauss, rudolf
"i dont sympathize with you (as i understand you now.) -> george and kinzo
beatrice exists outside the scale bcs i dont understand anything shes got going on but i am compelled. maybe once let sjust let her win i wanna see where this goes

baby guild :)
aka the timber scouts! they're basically just a bunch of kids in a sort of guild prep-course. so, not a real full official guild, but functions like one. all the kids have different woodland animal gimmicks to go with the scout vibe. They have a very loose shared uniform too, they're pretty much allowed to customize however they want as long as they keep the white button-up, brown outerwear, dark brown bottoms, and brown boots. also like a lot of kids in other guilds, their weapons are toys or otherwise "safter" items. But that's pretty much all! They aren't super deep characters, but more general info still under the cut :p
