damian using his art skills for evil and drawing timber in an awful 90s yaoi artstyle (yes the proportions are awful and the hands are nightmarish)
he gives it to tim in front of bernard so tim isn't able to tear it up or even say anything bad about it
it's on bernards fridge now and tim is forced to look at it everytime he comes over

okay a bit of an odd request but my way of flirting is oddly threatening like “i want to hallow out your chest and live in your rib cage :((“ to me it’s endearing 🙏 and i totally want to see slasher hc on how they’d react !! idc what slashers you use and you can be as silly as u want !! i think it’d be funny with Stu though ^^
hi!! dont sorry about odd requests, i love seeing everybodies ideas, and i love this!! im also so excited about me choosing the slashers so ill pick a variety🫶
slashers will includdeee; Baby Firefly, Otis Driftwood, RZ Michael Myers, Billy Lenz, Stu Matcher
Slashers x Gn! Reader | Odd Flirting
Warnings: Language, Fluff, mentions of murder
------------------------------------------------------------
Baby Firefly
oh she thinks its hilarious
you share a twisted sense of love? shes giggling at every sentence and comment you say, a hand hovering over her mouth to try to calm herself
she never thought if flirting like that before, but now that shes heard it shes as into it as you are
"You're too clever sweetheart! I woulda never thought of it like that, hm <3"
it started when you were helping her eith makeup for a show, she was bedazzled with a beautiful dress and a gorgeous amount of makeup over her already pretty face
you put on her lipstick and mindlessly let it slip, and before you know it shes smiling confused, asking uou to repeat what you said
she sees you laugh nervously before repeating it, and all she does is think about it before smiling, kissing your cheek to leave a red lipstick print, and then wants to come up with her own
she always likes to hear them, because not only is it sentimental and intimate to her, she loves to have somebody who acts or thinks a little like her, so maybe the more twisted / odder the flirting, she feels secure and that she understands you
will pout when she cant think of any, itll come with time
she wants to say some to you to see how you react, ahe loves i serving you when it happens and laughing, then hugging you
she claims her inspiration came from "her smart little doll"
a kiss after every comment is complimentary of course
"Aren't you just the cutest, I always learn the most with you!"
//
Otis Driftwood
"Fuck did you just say to me Darlin?"
takes the compliment very differently than baby, he thinks of it more of the gruesome manner than the romantic aspect, you may have to explain it to him
even after that he thinks its hilarious, did you come up with that yourself? fuckin genius
he says them back witty, but he loves to tease you about it, making them in snarky tones and drawn out phrases
he thinks of them a lot in his free time, analyzing them deeper than anybody else would think of it, because while he agrees theres a closeness to it, he wants to know why
will write down every one you say, for multiple reasons
your compliments give him ideas on his art, specifically the human-genre work of his, but when he thinks of you while carving and cutting hes never been more at peace
asks you about them at night so he can laugh while youre dozing off in his chest
most likely began when you two were awake late in the night because you couldnt sleep, and some rare sweet talk was going on before you said it
"Jesus honey, say that again?"
hes always amused when you speak, he treasures every sentence
"Sugar I need you to repeat that one, I didn't quite catch that,"
--
"Y'know, I thought that was what came out of that damn witty mouth of yours!"
//
RZ Michael Myers
he doesnt quite get it, but since he doesnt recieve compliments a lot, he doesnt think too much of it
he thinks of it along side his favor of killing, so in a way he can see the gorier side of it, and since he doesnt see anything wrong with that, he doesnt mind your flirting
he imagines what you said as hes on one of his sprees, he thinks your mind is excellent because hes never had as much fun without your ideas like that
he probably tries to think about the deeper meaning behind it, reflecting it in his art, and giving it to you to show his form of endearment
hes not really capable of reproducing flirtation it to you, since be doesnt have a good idea of it, but he has his own ways of loving you back
he'll tap you with his knife to get your attention when these start up, maybe tapping your heart lightly with the tip of it when you turn to look at him
will 100% hold you so youll stay in place, its his version if quality time, he grasps your side firmly and stares in silence, he thinks its endearing
guides you by the shoulders to take you somewhere
he has no opinion on your comments, but they do affect how he shows affection in some ways <3
//
Billy Lenz
possibly in the top 3 for king of twisted flirtatious comments, you went to the right man
he is EXCITED when you say it, hes definitely thought of flirting like that but has never been able to put it into words
"Billy likes this! Billy's pretty piggy is smart <3"
he will now use this 24/7, its his thing now, he thinks of comments youve never thought of before
whenever he sees and greets you, or wishes you goodnight, its always a "Billy wishes he could live in his special piggy," or "Heartbeats make Billy jealous, he should be there" he thinks its so intimate and smart
competitions come up with who can come up with more, its his favorite activity, he loves to test and play with you
new things to the relationship make him so happy, so this is oerfect
whenever you say these things to him, its like his hyperactivity shoots up
your sincerity is near and dear to his heart, he craves it now, he loves when you supply it
overall this only closens the relationship and makes him feel more comfortable, you inspire him and hes overjoyed, this is his pride and joy
"Billy loves his smart piggy!!"
//
Stu Matcher
normally he'd be the king of saying the most outrageous shit possible, he loves to catch people off guard and make you have to pause before you say anything
so when you say say something about how you wanna live in his ribcage, bro looks at you for a good minute with this face: 😲
"well you won that game babe, what did you say???"
he laughs hysterically while being confused, because you just outwitted him
"woahhh.. totally a creepy vibe, i love that!"
he likes to mess with billy and everybody else about it, crediting you as the 'founder' of it while shaking you by your shoulders
he likes to write down new ideas and recite them back to you, having eachother rate the newest ones you think of
if were being real, he probably takes some ideas from his killing onto these so they can be more intimate, hes a creative man who sees opportunity in every corner
because its in the gag-business, he deep dives and makes a fake analysis of 'what makes these compliments better than the rest' and presents it to you
everytime you say another one he does have to pause to think about it, hes a goofy little guy but these comments are more complicated so give the fella some time to realize what you said

I ACCDITENTLY PUT MY NITARA HC OUT OF THE DRAFTS WHAT I DIDNT EVEN FINISHED WRITING 😭😭
dude this is what happens when you have shity internet Dx i know there was a option to edit but before i realize that i deleted the post 🔫 idc anymore i'm gonna write it again
how tf does this app work i'm sorry mutual who reposted my draftJDKS
ANYWAYS MY NITARA DELULU HC LETS GO
tw: death of a character, mentions of vomit
Tumblr media
• Remember Kahil? You know the vampire who once was user of the datusha/kriss and bc of it's power he kill most of the Vaeternus, moments later he commits suicide trapping the sword with him?
Well lets put more emotional damage and say this was a relative to Nitara, maybe a brother why not
(i rewatched the Nitara intros and her mother also died damn, that's rough buddy)
they had a really strong bond, so Nitara was broken and devastated by his brother's tragic end, and after a long time of grief, this "revelation" as she would say, came to mind. From this time she tries so hard to save her so no Vaeternus could face the fate of death
And you know, "trying" is a strong word, the coven at this point are kinda tired of her all the time visiting them and bringing her failed ideas
The coven are like: "yeah yeah you know why don't you go and try to take over outworld or something" as a joke just to get rid of her.
And she did go to Outworld so..
• Now, her voice... It's not the best, it's so monotone and she doesnt realize it
But now i can't stop thinking about her with a valley girl accent, the way she would say the word "like" repetitively in one sentence is insane
There were times when Havik just rip of his own ears to not hear her, she talks a lot
She likes to do monologues, i feel like it's normal for Vaeternus to have this... Theatrical way of speaking, that goes on and on
Nitara does not know how to lie, if you dig enough she would accidentally say the truth or let out her plans without knowing
• At first the interactions Nitara has with Rain were harsh but later he starts to understand the big problem that the Vaeternus were living in, so maybe these two will be allies in the future??? Please??
Tho at this point she is trying to persue ppl to help her cause, whether it's from the good guys or the bad guys, and not even god itself wants to make a solution to help the Vaeternus yeah she's fucked
With the fictional dead family i create around her it makes a little bit of sense when she's trying to make Smoke a vampire too, Nitara sees herself since the guy also lost his mom and sister
or instead he sees her brother in Smoke, which is kinda creepy and dark but thats how my girl copes <33 /j
• The Vaeternus have a way to go to Earthrealm from centuries ago, this could mean that the vampires have more noledge of human traditions, slangs and even technology than Outworld does
This can also includes Earthrealm pop culture, influencing the way they dress or act, there could be Vaeternus who moved to Earthrealm permanently, hiding in the shadows
Imagine miss girl tries to make chitchat with Havik, Darrius and Sareena making a Earthrealm references and everyone just look at her like "wtf r u talkin about?"
This is chronically online comunicating with normal people
Nitara finds Earthrealm movies about vampires fascinating by the way of how they portrayed her kind, bc sometimes those movies are so wrong and sometimes they are so accurate its scary
She finds the "familiar" character to be very useful, she will have it in mind and maybe find one of those to help her look for food and other plans
• There was a time when the vaeternus didnt need blood to maintain their survival (idk if it was on Liu Kang or Geras intros) and there was were other things they could have feed on, but little by little vampirism began to be part of their nature that it was impossible to change their ways, condemning their own species.
Trying to get back to a normal diet probably would take another millenia
And if they eat or drink something no blood related i imagine them vomiting A LOT and with a horrible stomach pain, not the best moment for a vampire
• Her eyes glow in the dark
Once Nitara tried to sleep upside down bc she saw it in one of those movies, and she find it so comfortable??? It's kinda embarrasing for her but she keeps sleeping on that position from now on
She's a failure, she's a loser, and i think that's beautiful
Yeah i don't have more to say, also
Tumblr media
WWDITS MENTIONED‼️‼️
Yeah that's it bye

i'm sure others have already commented on the way the flashback was handled in the leaked ep but GOD it's been taking up so much space in my mind. it really shows just how important it is to plan ahead to have reveals like that feel satisfying.
like blitzo killed HIS OWN FUCKING MOM accidentally, and we're supposed to get this from what, a 5 second clip? seriously????
if this show was actually planned out and well-written i feel like it'd have more foreshadowing and hints at what happened. just things to get you wondering. like idk. in the first ep iirc blitzo is tied up and the humans try to burn him and he doesnt react to the fire in a weird way at all??? HE KILLED HIS OWN MOTHER BY ACCIDENTALLY CAUSING A HUGE FIRE!!! idc how much blitzo bottles things up. some sort of reaction wouldve made so much more sense - like, if moxxie or millie or whoever was tied up with him i cant be bothered to go check - said that human fire doesnt hurt them instead of blitzo, and then he acts kind of off, it could be like a "oh i wonder why he's acting like that even though it doesnt hurt him" and then its the reveal and its like "ohhh omg thats why." something of that nature. just SOMETHING to buildup to the reveal. and god i wish it was longer.
i wish there was more time to see both fizzarolli's and blitzo's perspectives on the accident. i mean it starts with fizz waking up, there could be like, a dream sequence that portrays blitzo all evil, showing that it still haunts fizz and makes you wonder what really happened- but then the jump from that to him waking up would be complete tonal whiplash so i dont think that would really work with the episode as is- honestly the whole thing just needs to be rewritten. this whole show is a mess actually. it's taking up so much of my brain. i'm sorry.
god and the whole thing is so STUPID too. fucking, there are people... at your birthday party....? wtf... *accidentally bumps into the imp carrying the cake* oh the cake has fallen and i have accidentally killed my mother and caused irreversible damage to my friend !
but but but WHY is blitzo like that. its fizz's goddamn birthday party no shit he's the center of attention. yk what im not even going to rant abt that. its all just shitty writing.
despite all that i'm still excited for the episode tomorrow, helluva has great animation and fizzarolli is the only character i care about so i'm really looking forward to see him fully animated just on screen. the song had its bad parts (fucking secret to bitcoin part) but i love how over-dramatic fizz is, he loves performing so much it's cute
it was bad, it was just so incredibly bad, and the only redeeming thing about it was that it's Fizzarolli. I'm looking forward to see him and Ozzie in full animation (lack of composition aside) and that's about it.

What if they didnt fight cary and convinced him to return for saw 3... Then, would the scenario "jigsaw kidnaps larrys family" become real? Then, then, would it be more awesome than his coming back in saw 3d? I guess the answers yes. I'll forever hate Larry's treachery.
if it went according to plan, allison is kidnapped again and lawrence takes the role of lynn where he cares for john (iirc). either way, yeah theyre involved again. not sure abt diana tho?
okay so, sorry to be That Guy. but lawrence as an apprentice makes the most sense for his character and the saw universe and im going to use this random ask to voice my opinion so thank you for using my ask box as a saw google lol
A LOT more under the cut
i DO with we got to see that version because it would mean more lawrence screentime and i genuinely do not dislike any saw content. idc how shitty saw x is, it could undo everything and shit all over it but i would NOT care. any content means an avenue to explore saw further
thats one of the main reasons the apprentice reveal was so good, in my opinion. before i get to why its great for lawrence, i want to point out why it works SO well for the other aspects. amanda is johns pseudo-daughter, he LOVED her like a father. we see it at the end of saw iii. no matter what he says, john does not forgive people. he punishes jill for losing their child but at the end of iii, we see him genuinely look at amanda with love and forgiveness. and yet? he never trusted her enough to tell her about lawrence. this random fucking guy who didnt even WIN, is the golden child. trusted with his wife!
as for mark, he is the definition of jigsaws philosophy. he may have jostled his victims around but he had the strongest will to live out of anyone and never relished in hurting them (crying after kidnapping paul + killing seth). another reason i like 3D is that he cant even look at jills corpse. his "game over" wasnt victorious. not like johns always is. YET he is not trusted. hes been there since before amanda, followed his rules, lived his philosophy and he was shafted again. i think the reveal does a lot of good for the apprentice-john dynamic for everyone involved.
secondly, JOHNS TESTS DONT WORK. CANONICALLY. they do not!! amanda says it herself. jigsaw traps make people worse, and not just bc thats a logical response to trauma. working for john amplifies everyones worst traits. amanda became a killer, mark grew to find some sort of enjoyment in killing (at the very least, it made him dependent on it for power and a sense of identity after the loss of his sister)
lawrences test was designed to show him what john said he was missing: empathy. he has none! he lies and doesnt care, he cant understand other peoples points of view, and he prioritizes his own whims and wants over everyone. CONSISTENTLY. so what happens when his tests presents him with the very definition of his heart and moral core, then asks him to kill him? he gets fucking worse!
lawrence is a narcissist. as in the personality disorder. he has low empathy (this is canonically the reason for his test!! not just "he cheated" or "he ignored john", he does these things for that reason) and god. just look at the symptoms, its like they made every scene an example of them on purpose. the idea that his game would be a wake up call and cause him to reflect and adjust his behaviors is just insane to me! within the canon logic of the story, and when taking into account his clear personality disorder... its the most logical choice (source: i have it and also i have eyes. SIDE SIDE note, my real source is that hes a clear parallel to john and john was evaluated for NPD in his psychiatric files in the saw game. so theres that) i think this has a lot to do with people not understanding low empathy. they cant understand why he would betray adam and join jigsaw
trauma wont change that overnight. getting fixed by john for 2 years without seeing the sun certainly wont help either
lawrence as an apprentice is the most logical progression of his character. he does what he wants and what he has to, at the expense of others. hes isolated from his wife and child. he cant understand other peoples prespective. he has an issue with guilt or feeling empathy for people, including those suffering like john. this wont change bc he experienced his first shred of empathy after MURDERING someone he got to know for 6 hours. low empathy =/= no empathy. thats like saying dude bros who do shrooms and experience empathy for the first time in their life are changed people. they arent lol
also the contrast between his game over vs marks 5 minutes earlier is SO important for their characters. theres so much good shit in that movie. take out the corny lines and jill mistreatment, and u have a lot to work with! so yes i do think that itd be more awesome. i love saw 3D and what it did for his character. im not sure how saw iii hostage lawrence wouldve expanded on his character, but id rather go with saw 3D bc im confident they didnt butcher his character. im glad that a beloved protagonist is a complete narc, and hes still beloved! im never giving that up

important for plot, scotts house got a drive by. and his mom was shot, and mason, and scotts dad, and lydia. so liam's upset because even though scott and liam and malia are werewolves and can heal from gunshot wounds THERE WERE HUMANS IN THE HOUSE. AND THEY DIDNT CARE. and also liam is just like. mad. thats his pack, his family his best friend. next time we see liam, hes pushing gabe on the floor in the locker room at school and gabe is like "i dont know anything i swear😰 i dont know what happened at scotts house" liam know he lying, so he picks him up by the collar and hes like "did you know who was there? DID YOU KNOW MASON WAS IN THERE?" "no no i didnt know anything . i Dont know anything." liam turns him around and smushes his face on the mirror over the sink. "maybe you havent noticed lately, but ive been having trouble controlling my anger, when things happen to my friends i just cant seem to help it." and gabe is like "no liam wait please" and hes like "I just get so ANGRY" and the mirror starts to crack by how hard he's holding gabe's face against the mirror. ans gabe is like "stop liam wait please" and blood is starting to drip on the sink and hes gripping the edge of it. and liam just presses harder and hes like "you think imma going to kill you?" AND WE CAN SEE THEO SHOW UP IN THE MIRROR BEHIND LIAM. its all cracked and weird but its theo and his annoying ass crossed arm stance. liam doesnt notice him yet "You think we're all killers? maybe we should be." and theo pipes up with: "you really gonna kill him?" and we can see liam turn around, surprised, and all of the blood thats dripping off gabe on the mirror and how much pressure liams applied because its all spiderweb cracks. and theo goes "i mean... idc if you do.🤷 but have you thought this through?" and liam turns back to gabe. "any idea where you're gonna dump the body?" ans it cuts to gabes HORRIFIED FACE NOT REALIZING THEO IS ACTUALLY INADVERTENTLY TRYING TO GET LIAM NOT TO KILL GABE. "but no one saw you grab him .. did they? cause that could be a problem." and liam pushes gabes head further and says "i dont care." and theo shrugs and says "i dont care either. but at least let me help. im the one with experience here. if we kill him, we'll have to find the witnesses and kill them too. which meannss we're gonna need shovels, some plastic bags, maybe a chainsaw..." GABES HORRIFIED FACE AGAIN😭😭 ans liam gives gabe one last push before he lets go and gabe falls back on the ground. liam looks up at the cracked and bloody mirror with his fangs out. and you can tell he already feels terrible. for even considering it. for even considering being the monster he looks. and immediately the anger melts away ans he softly says, "you made your point." two things of note. THEO DOESNT FUCKING GO TO SCHOOL WHY IS HE THERE. DID HE JUST GET A LIAM SENSE. LIKE OOPS MY ENEMY TURNED KINDA FRIEND IS ABOUT TO MAKE A BAD DECISION AND HIS ANGER IS OFF THR CHARTS LEMME HELP??? also love how he was like. lemme help with the murder, ive got experience😎. other thing if note, when liam first became a werewolf, scott told him that being a werewolf doesnt mean he has to be a monster, it doesnt mean he has to do bad things he can still choose to do good, just like when he was a full human. just thought i'd tell you. scott would be so disappointed if he lost his anger like that and killed someone. and he just cant stand that. he was so afraid of his parents finding out about his werewolfism because he was scared they were gonna look at him how they did when he wrecked and keyed his coaches car and got diagnosed with IED. he was so scared of that look in their eyes. of being looked at like that. 
personally I think gabe shoulda died but maybe that's just me

Uhh what’s your favorite TR arc and why??
BLACK DRAGONS CHRISTMAS MURDER ARC
i think ive talked abt this b4 but it just has so much stuff i like in it. its my favorite in terms of storytelling i'm not deep i like easily recognizable gimmicks for babies idc. theres a bunch of reasons i like it so:
the kisaki-hanma-chifuyu-takemichi teamup i love their begrudging cooperation and their hostility...i miss them every day... when will C4U/KillemAll/The Hanmas come back from the war... i see them in every group of 4... the wiggles, teletubbies, tmnt... it was a team born to die but what a beautiful birth...
i think the tenuous dynamics between the gangs at the time was fun the suspense was good. baji just died, kisaki and hanma still in toman, black dragons about to go warring with everyone, no one likes each other it was a great spawning ground for drama
yuzuha was one of my favorite main characters of the arc... no one else understands this... her sigma philosphy of killing taiju. i talked about this more in an older ask but in summary: i like the “inescapable violence” theme in the christmas arc. yuzuha kills taiju to protect hakkai, hakkai takes the blame to protect yuzuha and becomes BD leader to end up just as corrupt as taiju, cycle of doom. neither yuzuha and hakkai had any bad intention they had the same ‘desire to protect, to do good’ that got pushed to the point of doing bad things. even taiju seems to have his version of good will but theres just something up with that guy dawg.
i really wish they’d say smth abt yuzuha in the future of the manga bcz what is she even doing while her little brothers in the middle of the chaos but also the plot has expanded so much by now that unfortunately she probably won’t make another major appearance -_-
on the other side, taiju was my favorite antagonist, i never draw him but he has one of my favorite designs in the series even though every panel of his jumpscares you. takemichi saw him once and immediately started getting night terrors
going off on a tangent though, i'm... iffy about the 'redemption'. i like taiju but this is on the level of him being an imaginary dude with a big role in a story. the point of the story is that you dont like him, hes still a huge douchewagon... i don’t think the main cast (including hakkai) would still be cool with him even though its been 2 years it’s not something that just ‘gets better with time’. taiju didn’t even really say he was gonna be a better person (im pretty sure he said smth the opposite lmfao but i don;t remember well). in the timeskip, it could be interpreted that he did make an effort to improve given how seriously he took grieving hakkais death, but thats 10+ years after the affair, and even then it’s only an implication! that sketch of taiju with mana and luna never sat right with me why does mitsuya trust him sm all of a sudden...in my opinion they really didnt need him to return?? there are better candidates to nearly castrate sanzu for threatening takemichi, fight the living legends, etc. (what happened to the rest of toman, or just ask anyone here they’ll nominate their little boyfriend ran haitani or smth) i could talk about this a lot but TLDR i think it’d be fine if he just went away lol you dont need to have them make up it doesnt make sense
honorable mention! tenjiku arc was fun i liked getting to see the stories of the side cast (esp kawata brothers, mucho, emma)

trigun ep 6 thoughts
in the effort to show nick's fancy human strengthening drug, they have him using it every time he shows up? hes like me playing video games tanking damage bc ik i have 100 health potions on me and idc enough to deal w the enemy atm or whatever. these arent the actions of a man who wants to live lol??
theres mention of knives' plant plot again. the last two eps feel like filler for stampede i guess
idk if meryl is joking but her comment was weird either way?? why would any of them be ok w ww in the car atm
at least theyre talking abt meryl and roberto being reporters again. i honestly almost forgot that completely. not that they showed them working
idk if it was the translation, but smth abt wolfwood's convo calling him cold was hard to understand for me? but idk why he didnt have this attitude w them earlier. and i esp dont know why hes tolerating ww atm if the gung ho gun/ww babysit/guide vash to knives plot isnt happening here
ig this is the closest to a death flag for roberto. still dont know why meryl is so fixated on vash. kind of feel like if roberto didnt exist, i wouldnt believe this reporter group exists, either
no fucking way is the orphanage their next point
all the bg characters look so boring :(
wolfwood is not likable at all in stampede. in the manga, his role fits, here he feels like a stalker, esp when he doesnt even have that anime tsundere vibe, instead following him and calling him stupid. his kind of domineering, asshole attitude compared to vash's passive attitude in return makes vash feel kind of depressing. i wouldnt want them together
ww's attitude also focuses on vash's "failure", something that shouldve been reserved to vash. ww can be projecting concerning the cult (and presumably the orphans being kidnapped) but it shouldnt be both
stampede again hasnt even brought up why vash doesnt want to kill, when ww couldve been a perfect opportunity for him to question it, but stampede seems to be skipping past things
i dont like livio's design :(
idk how ww would recognize him lol
the style change is interesting
BABY TOMA?!?!
also im distracted but its WAYY too early to reveal anyones backstory lol, unless they get removed like right away lol??
nick also looks too young. it feels like he doesnt have that initial issue that causes him to be weirdly mature (despite all the other shit)
stampede seems to wanna characterize ww as a trickster? obviously for what hes doing rn, but it feels weird as a child... livio and nick's interaction in the manga felt better
this is absolutely personal but i dont like whatever artist's style for these characters lol. before i thought it was just meryl, but they clearly have a same face issue
ww's skin tone almost looks normal, but idk if its supposed to immediately contrast him to livio who they put in all white like fucking kaworu nagisa or shion from no.6
ww was born smoking ig
i think the animation is nice
livio doesnt seem to be on the same side as ww currently??
i think if they never mentioned meryl or roberto again, i wouldve forgot about them completely
its incredible when tristamp explains things it still makes no sense, what fucking test, what could a 10 y/o (??) possibly show. this isnt tpn
seizure inducing sequence for some reason
so its not like the manga. he didnt have any weirdo baby assassins training... hes straight up a child in an adult's body here 😭???
knives has been recast as eye of michael guy ig
idk how to feel abt livio here. in the manga, it did feel funny they were both from the same group, but nick didnt know he existed in a similar role, but ig hes a hostage here in a more visible way than the thought of his old orphanage siblings
the blue hair joke felt very mcu humory. i hate tristamp's designer. i am so serious
i wonder what theyre gonna do abt razlo...
they turned conrad into a priest? specifically for the cult??
livio being here this early is also bad i think bc in the manga it basically felt like he replaced ww after. ww at this point went out of his way not to kill, being mocked by his master, and livio being praised as a tool along side him. i dont think he wanted to kill livio then, but livio was accepting of his role then. they also fought at the orphanage. idk why livio is here, why hes attacking or what. it just feels very wrong overall
they sure did change legato lol. hes now the analytical, stoic anime cliche, while the original very clearly had no issue getting emotional lol
NO FUCKING WAY ARE THEY GOING TO THE ORPHANAGE
i dont know hy the fuck the bad lad gang is there?? incredibly strange choice

vent post suicide tw
i dont remember a majority of what happens in the day. i know what happened but i dont remember it if that makes any sense. what i do remember often doesnt feel like i was in control, both looking back and in the moment itself. like some parasite is doing it for me. is that too dramatic for a fucking vent post? idc this is my vent post anyway lmao. i think the parasite thinks its doing whats best for me but in reality its just fucking me over. like bitch dont book concert tickets three months in advance, dont buy those books we already have like 30 on our shelves that havent been read, we have to kill ourselves rmb lol? im not gonna use this shit. ill hopefully off myself by the end of the year, im just wasting money. i think i am scared of dying. kind of idk. i dont want it to hurt. even if i deserve it. i wouldnt blame it if no one came to my funeral. i hope they do anyway. sometimes the parasite doesnt take over, but like sits next to me? idk. i can make it happen sometimes if i really want, sometimes its involuntary. most of the time it takes the form of comfort characters. like wonder woman, harley quinn, garfield that one time for whatever reason. most of the time they just talk me out of things. sometimes they give me a hug. its nice. i wish theyd go away tho, even though i love them. it would make things easier for me ha.

ive been feeling uncomfortable around people. m not really. i think she understands me a lot. i like her but im not sure if she feels the way i do about him, itd be awkward, i always feel bad about even thinking im something important to people. b is there, to be honest i forget about everyone. im too busy with my own mind. its just cuz im around people i exist for them, or they exist for me. i have trouble talking about how i feel with people, unless its like this, public, free, with no destiny or destinatary. its just for me, if someone happens to read it, fine i guess. idc. b complains and get mad at me for not telling them about how i feel. i just cant. its too hard. i wouldnt even know how to talk or start explaining myself. i think i have never done that. i dont do stuff if i feel it has no meaning, talking to him about it is just that, talking, it doesnt solve anything, i dont want him to feel bad, pity or worry about me, itd make me even more miserable. itd make me feel more annoying and taking up too much space. i dont like to feel like im a burden. a invited me to her birthday party, i dont know why, like, we dont know each other much or have shared intimately to like say they want me there to celebrate, unlike m, i think i have shared by far a lot more. i should have said no. theres going to be people doing drugs there, i fucking hate it. i even bought beer, i fucking hate beer. it tastes horrible. it hasnt been good social or sensory days. i get anxious, awkward and avoidant. i left without saying goodbye, again. i feel even more odd than i already am. i get a knot on mythroat. this isnt a good idea. i dont know why i said yes. because i like them? i wanted to know her better? a lot of friends are going to be there? i wanted to give them a gift? maybe theres going to be like 30 people in there and im assuming my position in other peoples lives again. i hate that shit. i feel pointless and meaningless and just diminute. i. ive been more sad and disregulated than usual, maybe i should take my meds again. i hope i dont get an attack, meltdown or shutdown tomorrow. its job day so ill probably be tired. why i said yes. i didnt want to dissapoint? if i think about it i still dont get it. why would anyone want me there? even considering said before, she wants to know me? its just a party? they like me? they trust me? I FEEL LIKE WE HAVE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR TWO WEEKS, I KNOW ITS BEEN MONTHS BUT WHY WHY WHY it kills me to not have answers to not make sense, even if my thoughts are poisoned by my insecurities, depression, trauma and whatever. yeah, maybe its a lil late but i shouldnt be down this spiral. im gonna try again as earlier: im going to sleep to see if the pain in me just passes.

i keep thinking about that tiktok that says essentially “when a trans man says ‘i’m a lesbian’ ... KILL YOURSELF” and it makes me angrier every day oh my god like the lack of awareness of the history of lesbian and FTM communities is astounding! where the fuck do you think it all began!!!! for real!
i’m not joking when i say that being told they must forcibly cut themselves off from their former lesbian identity is one of the more isolating and upsetting things that happens en masse to trans men these days. i have been that person and i have seen it firsthand (i have two FTM friends who found their way back to that label in the past few years; one passes as male pretty much constantly! and it doesnt hurt him to call himself a lesbian lmfao) like you truly dont fucking understand how isolating it is to try and be like uhhhh im a straight guy. when that, for lots of people, makes zero sense contextually. i think trans men who are not exclusively attracted to women sometimes misconstrue this, and in their lives they were pushed to falsely identify as lesbians before coming out, due to any sort of “tomboy” behavior being viewed as a sign of gayness rather than simply an acceptable mode of being for any sexuality. and that rly sucks that that happens to them. imo there needs to be a lot more “huh, never thought of it that way!” listening being done between different identity groups bc it straight up seems like some trans men cant imagine any other WOULD feel a strong connection to the lesbian community even after physical transition.
call yourself whatever you want, idc, but do NOT come up to one of the most despised sexual/gender identity groups and make these blanket statements that show such a blatant ignorance for any of our history! trans men’s culture and diverse identities did not begin with “mlm tumblr” in 2018 contrary to what tiktok may say. there have always been trans men in lesbian communities and its not hurting anybody

❗️❌MHA SPOILERS❌🚫💙💀❤️‍🔥🔥
Tumblr media
So the fact tht we’re gnna be learning about(hopefully)dabis life till now from 14-24 is so exciting but terrifying at the same time??!
Like up to now we’ve all essentially been trynna read into all of dabis dialogue to see what hes rlly like but nobody ACTUALLY knows!Everyones made different points where either “oh hes just a daddy obsessed boy””He was abused””He overreacted””he misunderstood their actions as not caring/loving!”hes sad over killing ppl!””he loves killing ppl!!””he doesnt care about the LOV””he cares about the LOV”
Like theres straight up so many different views on how dabi is its actually pretty wild,even more with the fact tht hes pretty much the only other main important character tht hasnt gotten a pov and is considered a mystery that honestly we should all be super scared of whats in his past.
Think about it right?
So many things that ppl dnt think about could actually be right and/or be wrong.Horikoshi could legit make him a real villain and make alot of ppl hate him based on what he’ll show and im so scared for tht??!Ill forever love my lil murder meow meow cause i love him no matter what and idgaf(biased af dnt @ me 😩)
I hope he has his reasons and i hope we get more than (no offense) some shitty 15-19 pages of dabis life speedrun cause at this point he deserves it and so do us all,like i want actual 4-9 chapters explaining everything tht happened in 10 years but kinda summarized.If not this is just a plot where no matter what the power of friendship and “heroes” wins.And thts just bs.
Up till now theres barely any heroes tht can be considered pure and honest,and the fact tht Endeavor and (dnt kill me fandom) Hawks are STILL working is absurd.AND they dint get any heavy hatred from the public after their dirty laundry was throw out there???Fkg Endeavor cried and he was essentially forgiven and told aight dnt do it again and then accepted???This was a legit abused and thrown to the side child tht did/went through god knows what till he became a villain,and he gets to keep his tittle as if nothing?!
The only thing tht could fix this is if he or both of them retire after the war cause right now they are the strongest so the heroes woulf need them,but aside from tht this story has essentially gone from a weak lil kid wanting to be a hero and provr himself to him realizing the fault in the hero society and saying “fine ill do it myself” and then being brought back by his shitty childhood friend?(idc to call him his bestfriend cause with everything he did to him bakugo shouldav been expelled but thts another post 👩🏽‍🦯).To then fight a war against ppl that hv been abused/neglected/ignored etc. by the sayd hero society and is actively being distracted so he jumps in and fights bigger enemies(aka tsu and uraraka legit telling him to leave toga to them cause he was trying to reason and understand her).
This is the first time ive ever read/watched something and i fully supported the villains and it wasnt just cause they was hot 😂.Only true hero in mha is deku 😭.
DABI TOPIC AGAIN💙❌💀
I dnt see the point of dabi dying honestly,like yea i get it sounds biased cause dabi simp but hear me out.The whole todoroki bs is about acceptance,moving on and fixing bs(theres bigger words tht were used once but idr).Dabi wont be killed and im 99% sure of tht,but BUT he might end up killing himself which i am in fear of.BUT IT WOULD MAKE ZERO SENSE!!!!
Dabi is one of the strongest villains so i get why he’d need to be taken care off in some way.But dying/killed??Its useless,stupid,no point in his story,no point in the todoroki story,not fair to the character and what would the message be from tht?”Aight so now that everyone knows his past lets make him burn himself to ash like hes done to all his victims and he’ll die like his jaw or or make him look more angelic so burn himself so much he’ll fall on a bed of ashes while looking at the sky covering his eyes slightly with the back of his hand and you’ll see his skin full black and then fade to nothing ye YE LETS DO THT FOR THE CHARACTER THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT SOMETHING LETS JUST OFF HIM CAUSE HE AINT ON DEKUS THE MCS SIDE!!!”
Y’all see why it would be stupid?
It would make no sense to me in anyway other than just hori killing one more villain/victim off to…to do what?Honestly it hurts to even think about it and hurts even more thinking that it would prolly happen in prolly 2-3 chapters. I want his past to be fleshed out completely in a couple chapters,i wanna know what he went through wether good or bad i wanna know what his thoughts and actions were for every step.I dnt want him to just get 1-2 small shitty chapters with his whole life summarized and then go back to the present and him lose to shoto(shoto would win this if he went all out with both sides and not just fire ngl)and the 3 endeavor sidekicks tht are essentially endeavor apologist🙄.I wanna see dabi just either pass out or get knocked out by shoto and then shoved into an ambulance and sent to an er then healing center or villain rehab,fkg anything at this point just dnt kill him off like hes some kinda side character.
🦋Anyways tht was my rant/vent post.I wanna know ppls thoughts about the mha manga atm for those who are in the current chapters,thoughts about any character in particular and or how would you all think this would all end?Also sorry for the long ass post i put spaces cause its easier to read and write it and if my english is bad its cause its not my main language so srry bout tht to.💙

What are your thoughts on the sire bond?
i kinda answered this just now but its a lot so here we go
first. i need to say that i hated the sirebond storyline in tvd, but thats bc i fucking hate d@mon and delen@ and like brett said it is a controversial and kinda tricky storyline to get around and i think that in a ship in which the man had done so much against the girl (like killing her brother in front of her bc she didnt say she loved him back), that was bound to be a shitty storyline lmfao
but second. its gonna be different for legacies for many reasons, a few of which - consent with the vampire powers is definitely something legacies drives home constantly (mg saying that he doesnt like to compel people to mess w their agency, lizzie and sebastian's fallout in s02, lizzie bringing it up in the very next scene in the last episode and hope understanding her point, etc), so i definitely trust the legacies writers to lead this storyline (i know, controversial opinion in this fandom but idc yall know how i feel about the show so suck a dick and die mad about it).
i also think that lizzie and hope's dynamic thrives in conflicts like these, their dynamic is very different from a LOT of the tvdu dynamics and i think that this is a really good depth added to them and it makes sense. sure im biased bc this is my otp and etc but i think that the fact that lizzie and hope have gone through SO MUCH together and it kinda was all leading up to this moment. i'm very excited to see how all of this plays out, genuinely, bc hope and lizzie do challenge each other a lot and lizzie is seemingly still aware of what is her own idea and what is hope's (unlike in tvd, when damon would simply tell elena something and she would do it), so thats a difference there too. remember, lizzie was possessed by the oni in 2x04 and she was still able to break her mind apart from the possession at times bc her mind works Differently. so this is something im definitely considering as well when it comes to it... like lizzie said, she's an expert at mind prisons so i dont think this is gonna be different, but we have to see
and then third its just the fact that as a hizzie stan its kinda iconic that we have that confirmation that lizzie's feelings towards hope go beyond what people think. so i'm honestly v excited about this storyline in every way, i want to see where it goes and what happens and the conflicts that this will bring to hizzie (bc as i said before they kinda thrive on conflicts and then resolving those conflicts - 1x14, 3x09 anyone???????)
so yeah i hope this answers it sfjjksfj

why are you so insistent everything be about c!clingy duo?
because the disc war finale was quite literally about cclingyduo ? now that ive had some time to think abt it i dont particularly care abt it being staged. like it doesnt make the most sense but its whatever to me. but to say the disc war finale wasnt about cclingyduo is just inaccurate LOL like clearly the most important decisions made there were ctommy giving up the discs to save ctubbo and ctommy not taking cdream's last canon life. and the conversation between cclingyduo when they thought cdream would kill ctubbo is one of the most emotionally impactful things to ever happen on the server especially after exile. season 2 was about them -- and obviously other ppl were involved bc that's how stories work, cdream was their major antagonist, but i dont understand how you can watch season 2 and think it's about anything but them. antagonists can be important and interesting but the storyline of s2 was framed around cclingyduo.
also i am very very openly a cclingyduo-aligned blog this has been known since day 1 they're my header i blog about them constantly Etc. idc if people follow with different lore opinions/interests but stop coming to my ask box acting fucking surprised and offended when i, a notable cclingyduo liker and cdream disliker, like cclingyduo and dislike cdream.

remember when I was gonna write that parkner fic?
cool so I've decided I'm gonna, but because I cannot write for SHIT and I hate my writing every time I see it, ill just share my outline of what I have so far. its not coherent. sorry. 
Section one: aunt may dies. It’ll be like “it's been 3 months. 3 months since May was shot. 2 months and 3 weeks since she died.”
Something like that idc. Basically this section will base around peter living tony, because he’s not doing well, and he is only 17- which is not actually old enough to be on your own after something like this. Setting is established, with cameos from dr strange (who tony is dating and lives with (yeah bite me, this is my fanfiction i can make it what i want.) it will be made obvious that this takes place after endgame, which also means that tony is Not going to die. I’m not that mean lmao. The avengers are like largely together, there was not as much death in this as there was in endgame. Whatever. Everyone is very nice to peter because they know that for him its either this or him becoming a ward of the state so like.
Section two: harley gets kicked out. His mom finds out that he’s gay (from gossip sources idk) and kicks harley out. Im not going to write them having a big fight like in the moment, but harley will recount what happened somewhat to tony in this section, and then more to peter later in the story. Gay ppl trauma dump, we know this. Okay anywaysss so harley calls tony literally sobbing and like freezing fucking cold. IM SORRY IM BEING SO MEAN TO THEM I PROMISE THEY'LL GET A HAPPY ENDING. Okay. harley explains how his mom kicked him out. Tony asks why, harley says something like “she didn’t agree with my lifestyle choices” like bitterly. Tony is a good person in this (i know, im really taking some character liberties) and he’s in the mood for collecting strays apparently, so he has happy send over the quinjet. He can’t make it himself bc hes in fucking japan or something for the next few weeks,, but. Yeah! Tony also calls peter, who is presumably in bed and feeling depressed. “Hey pete. How ya feeling? Any better?’ ‘Not really, tony. Sorry.’ ‘you don’t have to be sorry-’ ‘damn tony you sound like my therapist.’ “sorry pete, but i do have something to tell you- you know harley?’ ‘only from what you’ve told me about him, but yea. He was the tennessee garage kid, right?’ ‘i mean. Yes. so- he’s gonna come stay with me for a while too- it might not be permanent but it will probably be a bit. He’s about your age, and he just has no where to go (just like u). He’s not going to stay in your room or anything, but with bruce and thor here, he will be in your apartment area.’ ‘okay tony.. Will i have to talk to him a bunch?’ ‘not if you don’t want to- i already warned him about you, so it should be okay. I wouldn’t worry so much pete- you guys are so similar in a lot of ways that i wanted to introduce you two long before he called me.’ ‘okay tony, i trust you. Thank you again for letting me stay with you :)’ (yeah that kind of got away from me)
Section 3: build up. this is a shorter section. Harley and peter are gonna meet in section 4. This section is harley’s jet ride (with an intuitive happy) and harley’s nerves about how he really isn’t worth this (i mean hes pretty intimidated tony sent a private jet just for him) and happy like reassures him. Hes still insecure though. Peter is also nervous bc what if harley doesn’t like him? What if he doesn’t like harley?? Tony did say they would get along, but peter hasn’t really been himself recently, so who knows? Yeah lots of that. I do want to emphasize though- peter is not completely unhealthily coping. Like he has a therapist and he has been reaching out to ned and mj, but its still an open wound for him. Obviously. He still has a sense of humor though, but its to cover these deep insecurities. Like the first month or so that he was with tony, he was reallllyyyy trying to not get close to him bc he sort of thinks he kills everyone around him. Like logically he knows this isn’t true, but he does really think the that non superheroes that he surrounds himself with are very at risk if they know about his spider-man-ness. The only people who know now are ned and mj (may knew too).
Section 4: the meeting of harley and peter. Keep in mind peter has been living in this apartment/area of stark tower for about 3 months now. He actually moved in while may was in the hospital because he couldn’t stand to be alone in the apartment when he knew why may wasn’t there. And um. Yeah. so peter is like comfortable in this space, basically. Also- the reason theyre in the same apartment is because stark tower was not really created with the idea of housing broken orphans in mind, so it only has a certain amount of residential space. Thor and bruce are currently staying there together (although no one really knows if theyre together, or if theyre just best bros who went through some extreme trauma together and are now inseparable. Hmmm wonder if thats gonna come up later) and theyre using one apartment, and happy lives there with his own apartment, and tony and stephen are currently sharing the penthouse, even though thats not public knowledge. Really only the people close to tony know that he’s dating stephen. So. this leaves just the one other 2 bedroom apartment for peter and harley. It has one bathroom, and the bedrooms are connected by a door but theyre pretty big so like. Theres a kitchen, a living room with a fancy ass tv, and a really pretty view (with a balcony bc <333). May died in march, peter got leave from the school in april, and it is now the middle of june btw. Tony is now peter’s official guardian (he was before may died anyways) and now has sole guardianship over him which he has fully accepted, even though peter and him both know that there are going to be times where he has to go out of town bc he does own a company after all. Times like right now. Harley is pretty nervous that tony isn’t going to be there to greet him and that he is going to have to like introduce himself to peter and everything. Cmon, theres no reason to feel like that, he’s the one intruding after all, he should at least be able to handle himself. (<--- harley’s thoughts). Yeah so theyre insecure super cool. A n y w a y s so peter was stressing about harley as he arrived, and so when harley walked in they were both complete bundles of nerves. Harley walks up but knocks. Peter actually jumps (bc spidey sense okay whatever) and goes to get the door. Oh my god these awkward teenagers i hate them so much (i love them). Peter kinda looks like shit, sorry king. He was a little bit crying earlier, then tony called and he switched into stressed out ball-of-anxiety mode. Distractions are good, its okay. Peter opens the door for harley and they like introduce each other all awkward (again sorry) and peter shows harley where he is staying. Harley doesnt really have muchhhh bc he was kicked out and all. He just has a suitcase full of clothes, his favorite blanket, his favorite stuffed animal (yeah whatever bc ofc he does) and his phone/charger. He sets all his stuff down at once. He thanks peter for letting him stay in his apartment and also said sorry. First thing peter noticed was harley’s accent. Stfu. peter asks why harley’s here- ok. Harleys had a long ass day. Too fucking long. He- he breaks down. He tells peter a lot. About how his mom found out that he was gay, and how she told him never to come back. Yikes. Anyways, this is establishing the beginning of their relationship as friends. Peter is there for him even though he doesn’t know him at all. Peter sees some of himself in harley in this moment, even though he’s not talking about himself yet. Eventually harley does ask about peter, and they really just get to know each other really quick. They have these deep scarring individual traumas, and neither has nearly recovered, but they find comfort in just knowing that theyre not alone in their suffering. At least for now. At least in this moment.
Section 5: the next day. Peter and harley spent that whole night talking about what they were going through. Peter said good night at around 5 am (there were no adults around they can do what they want to) and they both got good sleeps. In peter’s case, one of the first solid nights he’s had in a while. Harley was kept up a little longer after peter left, however, because he just couldn’t shut off his mind. It was really cathartic for him to just lay everything out there and for someone to just accept him. Peter told him he was bi, but he was.. Lucky. He had accepting people in his life. May was accepting. God, harley couldn’t fathom having lost everyone in his life, everyone he ever cared about, and still having the heart to sit and talk with the dumbass anxious gay kid who can’t go home anymore. His problems felt so small compared to peter’s, and all he could do was admire peter’s resilience and how he was seemingly able to bounce back from anything. God, peter was something. He couldn’t wait to get to know him more. With that thought circling in his head, he finally went to sleep at oh shit 6:30 am. Peter woke up around 1. Harley at 2. When harley woke up, peter was watching tv and eating cereal on the couch and he just sat down next to him. No words, just sleepy children being sleepy. They stayed like this for like an hour when someone knocked on their door. Enter stephen strange!!!!!!!!!!! Get excited people. Hes just coming in to check on them bc tony told him to, and he didn’t get the chance last night bc he was _busy_. K so now he’s here and hes awkward and he just wants to make sure these boys r okay bc theyve both been through too much recently, and it would be just the cherry on top if they didn’t get along. Him and harley had never actually met before so he like introduced himself and all that. Offered like if they needed anything he was there, and its only gonna be a few days until tony gets back (did i say a week earlier? Im retconning that bc i cannot find it in my writing so it is now retconned). Peter and harley just have to sort of explain to dr strange that theyre getting along gREAT and there is no need for concern….. And peter was even thinking about showing harley around the city a bit that night (something he had not yet told harley, but wanted to make it seem like he was doing well and not acting too depressed in front of Dr. Strange) so dr strange is like yeah !!!!!! do that, that sounds super fun petey !!!!!! and so now they have evening plans
ok ps I wrote this like 2 weeks ago and completely forgot I posted something on Tumblr about this fic idea, and so this is literally just how I talk to myself. was not gonna ever post this but then I decided to because I'm bored. there are more sections but I'm not gonna post them rn because this post is really fucking long already!!!!

What do you think of Raphael and Camille's relationship?
not much i guess? at least not much i havent said before. i think its pretty clear that raphael has no loyalty for her and if anything had been waiting to dethrone her for a long time. i think rapha had been working to earn her trust and get rid of her for years now
first of all because like i know that's sh's writing being bad but his little coup over her was just so easy? it sounds to me like he had been getting ppl on his side and ready to overthrone her when the time came for quite a while. plus it's obvious that he was never in accordance with her shit - he went behind her back SO MANY TIMES and it was always for ppl he doesnt even know and has no reason to help? in fact has reasons to hate, since theyre shadowhunters
plus rapha knows about magnus and camille's history (remember how he deliberately didn't involve magnus in the clan thing because he didnt want magnus to have to deal with her? yeah) so of course he fucking hates her lmao. it is one of my treasured hcs that he joined her clan Exactly To Dethrone Her. rapha can play the long con, and i dont see a reason why hed join her clan as opposed to any other when she wasn't his sire and he had a home with magnus. i mean sure being in the NYC clan is convenient but ur telling me theres one (1) vampire clan for this entire town???? im calling bs like sorry
anyway yeah thats it. as for Camille's feelings towards him, i think she thought she had him wrapped around her finger and that he was no threat, which is a testament to how well rapha managed to play the long con, ESPECIALLY since he was going behind her back and freeing simon and giving his body back to the shadowhunters and all that crap. again he didnt even know him. like i know he did it because rapha believed it was right and he didnt want that to weight on his conscience but still, its obvious that he had to do a lot of shit he doesnt agree with for camille because shes a weirdo like that, and still he managed to go out of his way to help her victims AND have her trust pretty much until the end while organizing an uprising against her. like we have to stan
not that like camille liked him, by "trust" i mean mostly that she believed he was harmless which is why he was her second-in-command imo. not like, something meaningful udndidndod but still. and god knows how many years or even decades hes spent in her clan, so like. props to him? yeah
and to some point i think this has to do with rapha's moral standing. i had always thought that hes one of the most complex characters in shadowhunters because we got this guy who at the same time is obsessed with attoning for his Sins™ and self harms on the regular and blames himself for everything but whos also like. willing to kill and even turn on the ppl he loves to do that (like when he basically held magnus down and tried to kill clary during the soul sword thing)
and like once again! rapha was right lmao like im sorry but he was, her existence was a threat to millions of ppl and she was being so reckless like she didnt CARE and choosing to save her over millions is just. some MC bullcrap. but youd expect that someone with so many guilt issues and a sense of loyalty as strong as rapha would at least have a hard time taking that decision
and like i know it's the racism and the need to villainize him because hes a vampire! but in the good shadowhunters that exists in my head, it's because living with camille for so long he was forced to do a lot of shit that he would rather die than have to do, shit that compromised his moral standards to their very core, and in doing that he was still helping keep the world safe because he was no good if he didn't earn camille's trust so he could get rid of her and save the vampires. and also a part of him already feels so tainted by all the things he had to turn a blind eye to, i think its kinda like. might as well add another sin. better him than someone who still hasn't had to compromise, know that pain. and at the same time that only makes his obsession with atonement stronger
(because this is the good sh that exists in my head, mandatory disclaimer that im ignoring the heidi plotline because it was not only ooc nonsense but also like... nonsense plot-wise? i am once again asking why the fuck hed experiment on heidi who wasn't a daylighter when he could have gone for simon since he's so evil and willing to do terrible things for his sister or whatever. also this post is about the show not the books and idc what happened in the books)
anyway no wonder he was ready to fucking kill simon when he freed her like could you imagine spending decades compromising ur own beliefs and moral standards just so in the end you could get rid of an evil dictator and then some MOTHERFUCKER just fucking frees her because of his stupid childhood crush?????? bruh id be fucking livid. and thats not even considering what it meant for those he loved - his clan, magnus, etc
but anyway yeah those are my thoughts basically. i think rapha had always intended to take her down because 1- she was fucking terrible and hurting so many ppl including vampires: 2- he knew of her past with magnus and he was Protective. and he was very clear headed about it and managed to play a long con in a mind destroying game pretty well and just like damn we stan. thats all hdbdjd
