every post i see that's like "if you're scared of being like [bad person] that's means you're better than them and won't be like them" and it's like. lmao. my dad used to have crying sessions where he would confess his fear of being like his mother and causing me to grow up to hate him. usually after he did something fucking awful, to redirect the attention to his own pain. the girl who sexually assaulted me had panic attacks sometimes about the idea of maybe being a rapist, making it impossible to set sexual boundaries with her without her freaking out. whether you're afraid of being some kind of bad person has basically no bearing on whether you are that way

"You still deserve to eat. You still deserve to laugh."
me before watching trigun: "oh people really like the priest guy, i guess."

Was chatting to another nurse about the floor I’m on right now, and that nurse said, referring to the charge nurse tonight, “oh yeah, she’s a power hungry monster, she’d be charge nurse every shift if she could.” And then later the nurse said she had only stayed long (a 16 hr shift, can you imagine) because her girlfriend was also working late, and I was like “oh who’s your girlfriend?”
And the nurse said, “it’s the charge nurse.”
And I was like, “the power hungry monster?”
And the nurse was like “yes 🥰🥰”

Trigun is a very autism media to me. The twins themselves are full of amazing metaphors for autism!!
The plants wings are a physical metaphor for autism! To me Rem’s and other humans fear of seeing Vash’s overtly autistic traits is shown in their reactions to his wings. We see Knives isn’t afraid of showing off his plant powers ever. The twins have a very cool dichotomy about masking. I see Vash was favored because he masked, while Knives never cared to.
When Vash and Knives see Tesla Rem goes to comfort Vash first. This seems to be slightly on favoritism, but also because she’s shocked that Vash is having a large emotional reaction. I think the fandom sees Vash as hyper-emotinal and Knives as hypo-emotional, but to me it’s switched.
Knives does not hide his emotions. And absolutely does not hide his outbursts! He has meltdowns all the time and is not ashamed of his autistic traits. He doesn’t care about being unsettling or being accepted by humans/neurotypical society. (Even more interesting to consider that all of the Gung-Ho Guns are disabled/neurodiverse in some way). Knives allows his emotions to control him, where Vash is guided by his obligations. He does what he wants, based on his wants. And what he wants is to be with the only other autistic person he knows-his brother. He also desperately wants his brother to be free from his internalized ableism and the pain of masking.
Vash on the otherhand spends all his time masking and denying his autistic traits so he can fit in with “normal“ humans. He also again, in contrast to Knives, acts based on how his mother told him to behave. He hates acting out/standing out. He still operates on Rem’s instructions to be “normal“ and unnoticeable. He does occasionally show strong emotions but they’re not his positive emotions. To be these are less examples of Vash being over emotional, but instead are examples of outbursts. The overflow of negative emotions reminds me of my meltdowns! As well most of the emotions we do see Vash show are also parts of his masking. They are deeply constructed displays of emotion. All set to Vash‘s derived sense of what’s normal. It’s what he thinks positive emotions look like. His mask is baked into everything he does. And only one person sees through it-Wolfwood!!
Wolfwood is also set apart by the narrative. He has been modified. In my view this is the story portraying that Wolfwood is also neurodivergent in some way. He is capable of seeing through Vash‘s mask, and from Vash‘s reaction is the first one to call him out on it. He also goes from being afraid of Vash‘s autistic traits-his wings-to supporting him. His last words are him encouraging Vash to express his emotions genuinely(to not worry about his “unsettling“ autism smile).
Trigun as a media deals to deeply with disability and autism(if someone remind me I’ll make another little essay thing about Meryl and Milly‘s autism). I hope this is coherent!!
Anyways! Happy Autism Month!!

PLANT LORE MASTER POST - including Studio Orange Momocon and Anime North panels, previous interviews with Nightow, and Studio Orange staff twts.
Regarding the origin of the Plants, do you have any settings or story ideas?
Nightow: The Plants are something created by Earthlings. There are many stories about killing or challenging God, aren't there? So, I thought, what about a story where the challenge is being made? I wanted to make a story where humans, standing in the position of the creator, are bitten, so the Plants are made. Comickers Art Style Magazine, 2007.
The anime also made the towns out of stone and didn't show any wooden buildings, since it was a desert planet.
Nightow: That's original to the anime. I felt that something like a wood-production Plant creating paper and lumber would be fine. Stone towns gave a more desolate feel though, which I thought was clever. Trigun Art Book, 1999. Translation by @cerealandchoccymilk.
Watanabe confirms that Plants in Trigun Stampede created raw materials. Source twt.
Much more under the cut!
Anime North Studio Orange Panel, 2023
*Initial question that spurred the discussion of Plant lore by Studio Orange.
MusEq Meg: My question for you is something I noticed about the plant markings and the character design... and I'm wondering if you guys based that off the Chladni's plate experiments and the vibrating frequencies to communicate with the plants?
Watanabe: I need to re-look at the original source material, not the source material, the design works that we did. We had a sci-fi writer basically develop all the plants. How their development was, scientific approach, to develop that technology. Organically, plants actually started out from being excavated on Earth. It was actually mummified. They thought, they called it the "angel mummies," but it was a very fragmented mummy and... they basically from there, they excavated genetics. And we engineered them as plants. So they actually don't, humankind actually doesn't know how this technology works, but it works. So that's how they use the technology of the plants.
For the resemblance of plants and and actual (Chladni's) plates, there's actually a lot of thoughts that went into... I actually don't remember off the top of my head how that exactly was was so let me look it back and post it on Twitter or something."

Momocon Studio Orange Panel, 2024
Source twt.
There was supposedly an old interview that Nightow had discussed something similar to this, but I have only heard about it - have not found the source, yet. Source twt.
We learned nothing from Jurassic Park. Source twt.
This fits with the idea that plants are organic but also production plants. Source twt.
*I’d just like to add I had a theory there was stem cell research involved and this sounds similar to:)
Source twt.
Source twt.
This fits with an old post from Nightow’s website blog, Electric Flier. The blog is no longer available, but the post is archived on Trigun Wiki - Plant Physiology.
"The plant can control Planck -like uncertainty and manipulate energy, materials, and dimensions, but it can also collapse and create causality, extending to the multiverse including all time axes, and even higher dimensions.. What can be called the origin of the plant is the higher dimension itself far above the multiverse, and the beginning of everything itself.."
Nightow says Independents are natural to the evolution of Plants.
Are the independent species naturally occurring?
Nightow: Yes, I think they are an unforeseen evolution. Comickers Art Style Magazine, 2007.

Happy Pride Month everyone! Remember 4 months ago when the CEO of this platform harassed and chased a trans woman off this website just for posting her transition timeline, then chased her to other social media platforms to continue harassing her, and threatened to call the FBI if she continued disputing the multiple dubious terminations of her blogs that did not violate tumblr's terms of service in any way? And despite tumblr staff insisting that the CEO was acting against their interests, the broad transmisogyny evident in the site's culture and moderation policy has still not been adequately addressed?
