Chilchuck is a tsundere dad,

and why did he stick with Laios?

SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 30/48/56/ADVENTURE'S BIBLE ONWARDS.

Chilchuck Tims is a rogue. A bitter old rogue. But I guess it's more accurate to call him a professional adventurer. That's probably what people want to see him as. He's very pragmatic and realistic but sarcastic and prideful. The man is on the verge of retiring with a few things to his name. He founded a halfling union and is respected in his community as *the* guy that can go deeper down the dungeon. Chil gave his life for dungeoneering, he knows the politics and the dirty side of his job. Some people can see him as an insurance in their team. Because he has the skills and brains to keep you safe, go deeper and that you are paid well.

But why the hell did Chilchuck agreed to join on Laios' suicide mission?

Think about it.

Half of Laios' team are either dead or left the group, the remaining is a weird oddball of a leader and the other is a mess of an elf that doesn't really see you as an adult. They both can be reckless and can definitely get themselves killed. The group is also low on supplies and desperate for food. So there's that.

Although he may criticize the group, he is close to one member, Namari. He knows her situation and they share the same pragmatic view and drinks together. So why didn’t he follow in Namari's footsteps.

But yes in chapter 30 we actually got to know that Chilchuck actually cares about the group underneath his cynicism and sarcasm. Because unlike his optimistic and outlandish companions, he is the straight man.

But think again and I know he cares. But if he actually cared, he would not let Laios and Marcille to even set foot in the dungeon to their death. Remember he agreed to these deadly conditions before meeting Senshi. Deadly conditions that a seasoned adventurer like himself should already know. But he accepted it and was calmer about it as well.

So, does he trust the group? Does he not trust the group? Should he trust Laios?

Lets look at Chilchuck's most polarizing topic, group relations.

Despite Chil's critical nature, I think in my opinion Chilchuck respects and recognize everyone's strengths and weaknesses. But because he knows people's qualities, he likes to point them out and berate them from making further mistakes. He's harsh, but he wants to keep everyone alive. So that's why I think he sometimes see Laios and Marcille as immature or irresponsible at time. In turn, I think he sees himself as the most capable/reliable person in the group. With good reasons of course.

He knows how close Falin is to everybody, he will surely keep note of it. So when Laios and Marcille are automatically ready to save Falin despite deadly odds, I don't think he's surprised, he's sure they will die for Falin and no one will be there to revive them. But I don't think Chilchuck wants to see the remaining member go to their deaths and as the person that's supposed to keep everyone alive, he must have some guilt. After all, in some ways, he still cares for his own family, so he might understand Laios. But because of how reckless Laios is and how stubborn Marcille can be, I don't think he can stop them from going further. He'll help and he'll just ride along with these insane people.

Abit related. Isn't this against his halfling union's objective. Using a highly skilled halfling to their advantage on minimal pay to go on a deadly adventure. Surely this breaks his own code, right? But he does it anyways.

Despite not liking interpersonal group conflict and being as professional as possible. There's a point in time that Chilchuck actually got attached to them, to the point where he will break his own code. Whether he likes it or not. I think that he thinks that without him, the group and/or the rescue will break apart quickly and he really does not want his group to break.

Chilchuck is not tragic (compared to others), he has a relatively normal life but definitely unfortunate. Unlike the rest, his loss at most is his wife leaving him. The loss of a love fleeing you for a reason you do not know, the fear of chasing is evident. He also keeps in touch with his daughters as well. He cares but I guess prefers an independent approach.

I did notice the way he describe his daughters is similar to how he sees the others. He describe his daughters weakness, interest and strengths. He's perceptive not just with his senses, but others as well. Like how he knew that Laios have always wanted to try eating monsters and how peculiar Senshi is. He has to know people to keep them safe of course, that's how he shows that he cares.

To dive deeper, the way he cares is different from others. Senshi takes on the more nurturing approach, he sees the others as younglings that needs to feed and take care of, to protect them is his responsibility. Chilchuck is different, although he is similar. He makes sure that they are safe and criticize their bad behavior, but he respects their privacy and freedom. He criticize Laios, but for the majority, he lets Laios leads. Because unlike Senshi, he actually has kids, he has 3 adult kids. He expects better and for them to behave up to his expectations, as proper adults.

The relationship between Chilchuck and Laios is interesting. Chilchuck knows Laios' objective and he knows he can't stop it. But he also knows that Laios can be reckless and unconventional. However, he also knows Laios can be experimental and creative, but this too can blow up on his face. So to make sure that everyone (including Laios) do not explode, he has to be there. But he knows it has to be Laios to hold the torch and lead it himself, Chilchuck just has to guide and help him sometimes. Also I think Chil is a tsundere and actually likes Laios.

Chilchuck Tims has a pride bigger than himself. He'll stick by you because he likes you even if he won't say it. There are many times where his dad like behavior comes to play, particular with criticizing Laios and respecting Izutsumi. But he is ultimately someone that will make sure everyone is safe and sound.

AUGUST 26TH 2023

📍Reading festival

"what if I don't do well? It's my first festival. What if nobody shows Al?" I said from my dressing room at reading festival.

"Darling, you'll smash it out the park, I know you. You smash every set you do. And if nobody shows, I'll be there. Singing along to every word."

"Can I bring you on, just to sing one song"

"you don't need me to sing a song with you, besides you have Matty coming on to sing a song with you later. You'll ace it darling"

"Will I though?"

"yes. go and have a look at the crowd, just a peep. I saw it earlier when I was speaking to Jamie. Its fucking huge"

I go and walk down and have a peep from the side of the stage and there it was loads of people all come to watch me.

"I cant believe it... It's not real. How the fuck did I get here"

"Hard work, and Lots of promotion" Jamie, my manager says from where he just watched me look at the crowd.

"Your on in 1 minute by the way, they've finished soundcheck now."

"Okay. Al? last chance" I say which makes Alex pull his sunglasses down from his eyes "You don't need me, you'll be fine" He says before I shrug putting my in ears in and running out to the stage

"Readinnnng, how we fucking feeling" I shout running onto the stage. the Uproar from the crowd makes me cry

"you know when my manager booked me for this. I never ever imagined that there would this many of you. So thank you. This ones for you guys, for being such great fans, I wanna kiss you all" which was the perfect introduction to my first song of the set Kiss you

And Alex was true to his words, There he was side stage. Singing along to every word of my song.

As soon as I had finished my encore... and exited the stage I could hear people chanting for me to come back out "what do you think Y/n/n should we give them a run for their money" Matty asked me from where he joined me on the side of the stage, all rigged up for a performance. "Yeah okay I'll call you out in a minute"

"Okay, okay I can hear you from out there, you are all so loud. What do you say? one more song?" And I hear the loudest uproar from the crowd my in ears not even defending the sound anymore

"Okay, so here it is...spinning"

"found you at four in the morning. confidence soaring, thought you moved onto a new thing, but you keep it revolving. I look so good dressed in nothing. You ended up falling. I never needed your shelter. I'm good with no warning. My love like a city. All night everywhere. You love being with me. you never forget. 24/7 in heaven, you never forget. thought you'd get over the feeling." Is all I'm singing on my own before Matty comes out and joins in and the crowd a few meters from me is screaming, the lyrics back at me.

"but you just keep spinning over there. spinning over there." Matty and I sing together. The crowd joining in. and a few mosh pits happening from what I can see from the height of the stage.

"You must be feeling the pain." I sing

"You must be wondering" matty sings back we are just vibing, and all of my cares about whether the crowd would like me or not because I was just with one of my best friends doing what I loved.

"amphetamines in your brain" "maybe you're suffering" Matty sings at me with a shrug.

"I must be causing your pain I let you do the same"

"But you never regret a thing. Cause the game feels so good to win, darling" Matty and I sing together.

"Yeah, ooh, You just keep spinning" I sing by myself before Mattys joining back in for the chorus.

"My best friend taught me to sin, forgot that I had one, I'm on my knees and I pray, I shouldn't have mentioned, I'm back here after the states. Thought we could catch up. But I know that you fucking around. cause I know you're with it" Matty sang on his own, the crowd and alex from where he was stood backstage joining him. Before going back into the chorus with me one last time.

"thank you Reading, you've been fucking amazing." I say before running off the stage and running into Alex's arms hugging him and he's spinning me around and placing a chaste kiss on my lips

"How did I do?" I ask once he's put me back on the ground.

"You did fucking brilliant Y/n, It was amazing. I'm so proud of you" Alex says before I'm hugging him back, and we're running off to my tour bus.

I’m not sorry I’ll straight up say it.

It feels incredibly racist to me that MCU literally stole a character from Miles’s comics, to give a new best friend to Peter Parker, so you know the 10th+ version of this white boy could feel slightly different from the 9 other white boy Peter Parker’s.

Again, to make their 3rd movie series version of Peter Parker stand out from the two other Peter Parker movie trilogies, instead of just making their own creative decisions and character writing, just plucked the character of Ganke Lee, from the Miles Morales comics, and rewrote him into Ned for Peter Parker.

I'm not saying ITSV and ATSV rewrote Ganke's character for the movie specifically because of this as the movie does already make changes from the comics- but I would't be surprised if they avoided using Ganke much in the movies to avoid being compared to Ned. Which sucks, seeing Ned is just Ganke Lee from the comics repackaged.

Again having to steal a a character from a black character's universe and comics to make your white character more interesting than the dozen versions of your white character before is gross.

But the creator of Ganke Lee from the comics says it best.

“It's weird only because Ganke wasn't part of Peter's story — he was part of Miles's story."

#miles morales #ganke Lee #Peter Parker #ned leeds #mcu #itsv #atsv #spiderman homecoming #racism #stealing from black characters to make your white characters more interesting is fucking grow #I’ve made like 3 or 4 posts about this now but I’ll never not be annoyed about it so #plus since most people don’t even read the comics most people would assume if movie Ganke was written like comics Ganke that he was stolen #from mcu because no one looks deeper into things
