Just throwing this out there,
Saying "plagiarism and AI is okay when I don't like the victim" isn't the progressive response you think it is.
Yes even when the one being plagiarized is a huge company/franchise.

Shout-out to Marcus, one of my many ocs with horrible tastes in men 👍
Quick cut just to lore-dump a bit (skip this if ya want).
Marcus got to Ravenwood, calamity happened, Blueflower ran off to solve it. Marcus met Nolan while exploring Cyclops Lane and immediately clocked him as a pirate (cuz his bestie Griffin was a pirate) but said nothing.
Marcus stuck around and managed to befriend Nolan after a *lot* of struggle, but they got super close. Nolan was cocky and rarely did any actual work, but Marcus was willing to help him improve one step at a time, which worked to make them all the more connected. Nolan associated his forward progress with Marcus, and therefore Marcus was a valuable pawn.
Then Marcus suddenly wasn't a pawn, and in the most neurodivergent way possible, Nolan confessed a crush to Marcus. Marcus (who'd had a crush 0.2 seconds into hearing Nolan be obnoxious) returned the sentiment, and in my headcanon lil universe they're a pair.
Marcus is a beloved little pastel goth, and Nolan is still the most hated student on campus, but they're working on their shortcomings together.

How strange emotions are.
The feelings are oddly annoying, the festering of emotions that rage in my chest seem to flutter. Burning. Like a machine ready to have a complete melt down with one more frustrating interaction.
But through it all, nothing will change but outcomes i pick.
Life will continue on, no matter if I feel different. No matter if it ruins reputations, bridges, or bonds; Life will continue on. Even if I wished it could all crash with me. Burn with me. Engulf me until it ruins the whole world, so everyone could feel my own misery.
Sadly, no matter how I wish that would be true; Realistically, it's just a twisted fantasy... Something of self-destorying, being bitter to everyone, and enjoying the backlash I would get would help feed this anger inside my chest.
That was-... Until I met someone.
I met someone who has the patience of a Saint. The feelings that dwell inside, seem to soothe down when they're near me. No matter how much of a harsh mind-spiral I'm going into, or lashing out for no better reason than to try and ruin yet another relationship; They seem to take it with stride.
It's odd, you know? It's odd to feel such serene atmosphere with someone who can be so chaotic, but yet... They're caring. Sweet... Sometimes, it irks me when they feel the need to apologize for helping me, but it isn't aimed at them... It's aimed at the people who bit their hands when only to help them through their own mess.
...My feelings are annoying to process. My thoughts, unrational if I try and think of myself. Of what I want. My own needs and boundaries that need to be held up to...
Perhaps it's because I spent so long numb? Maybe it was because someone in my past, who was suppose to help me grow; Had stunted me from not being the best I could have been... Jealousy. Greed. The need to feel like they had someone under their thumb at all time?
Who knows what my past captors wanted before... And to this time, who cares. All I know is; I can be as free as I want. My only limitation is myself.
And in a twisted sense; Maybe I held my own self back due from lingering fear I had not processed yet...
But this being I had found?
This being had helped me, and slowly continuing to, processing things I had long ago buried in my own chest. Numbing it with all I could, to forget that I am not just a tool for others, but a being who deserves the same respect and love as any other who is important.
The frustration of learning emotions, being so old now, are just as annoying to deal with as if one was yet again a toddler learning to run...
But I'll get there.
I'll get there.
And so will you. ❤️
