Mk the Chaos King (AU/Theory)
To start this off, I need to give some context. Season four spoilers are advised. 
First off the Scrolls. The Scrolls also known as the book of death, are items used to punish criminals and well sinners. It’s a device that meant to make people reflect on their past mistakes. The ones who protect and use these scrolls are the Ten Kings. 
Each King has a different role to play. The theory is that Mk was one of them. Specifically the fifth. The fifth King is known as the son of heaven, and is the most powerful of all of the kings (from what I researched) his rank is so high is basically that next to an emperor. And I know that seems a bit extreme considering it’s Mk we are talking about. But after season four you can’t tell me this boy isn’t that powerful! 
Especially when Mk legitimately slapped Azure with is tail and caused Azure Lion (This guy who is the size and the power of the jade emperor himself) to go flying. 
Tumblr media
(Not to mention Mk’s Chinese name Qi Xiaotain means little heaven.) 
So it’s safe to assume there is something more to Mk then just Monkey Kings Successor. 
Furthermore Mk’s flash back. I’m his flashback of very short cut memories. You can see a goddess who I am guess is the creator goddess Nuwa because she creates beings out of clay and she is holding a clay statue of Monkey Mk. 
Tumblr media
Mk isn’t the only statue we see. There are nine others. Each a different animal: Bear, Bird, Mouse or Rat, Rabbit, Ox/Bull, Horse, Pig, Turtle, and Goat. As well as another monkey statue (but I will get into that later) 
Tumblr media
Each that can represent a different king. Especially the Bull/Ox and Horse considering in Chinese mythology there are two underworlders who are call Oxhead and horseface.  
Now the interesting part. Mk’s title Harbinger of Chaos. This fits with him being one of the ten kings. First it’s the scroll itself. Due to Mk having no memories or no name of who he once was the only thing the scroll has anything to go off of is what he was entirely, a being of chaos. Which is exactly what the kings are. The kings are designed one person, cause chaos. They were meant to torture and plunder criminals. That’s their job, as they are originally titled the ten kings of hell. 
And Mk fits the Fifth Kings role perfectly. The fifth kings duty is to past judgement. The king gives the criminals to reflect on what they have done and then proceeds to give them karma. 
Mk has technically already done this. First the Demon Bull king. DBK was originally put under the mountain as punishment for basically becoming a tyrant ruler. When he is freed he tries to go right back to that, not learning his lesson. Mk gives him karma by remaking the exact same punishment as before as a way to basically make DBK reflect and realize that nothing has changed. Which takes two seasons for him to figure out but it still works. 
Second Spider Queen. Mk doesn’t really say anything to her speech like. However his entire presence seemed to make her reflect on her actions. And then theres the dialogue he had for Macaque. 
Tumblr media
“I was meant to rule. I was, I would've been a good queen.”
“Well, I mean, that's definitely not true. You were in charge for like, a day, and it was, ah, it was so bad.” 
Season 2, 72 Transformations 
Tumblr media
“Then be a warrior.” 
Season 3, Destiny Fulfilled 
Then there’s the Lady Bone Demon. Obviously there’s the magic of friendship speech he gives while also destroying her with his giant staff. But I more want to focus on their last conversation. Because I believe this wasn’t her trying to mess with him. It’s her confessing on what she did wrong. 
“So it would seem. Know this monkey, you and I are not so different. We both fight for what we think is right, that pursuit only leads to one thing.”
“, to destiny right?”
“No. To pain.” 
Season 3, Destiny Fulfilled 
This is LBD’s reflecting and confessing her sins. She believed just like Azure that she was doing the right thing. But she was blinded by the negativity and her desire for Destiny that she didn’t realize that she was causing more pain. It’s almost as if she knew who Mk really was (this a speculation in all honesty I’m not sure) and that if she didn’t confess now before she died completely she would have been thrown into one of the scrolls. 
Lastly is Azure. This doesn’t need much explanation. Most of the dialogue MK says during his fight with Azure says it all. 
“That's who you were pretending to be right? To be my friend? To care about me? When really, you were just USING me to get what YOU wanted! To turn me against my own mentor.” 
“Put your hands in the monkey cage, expect to get bit son!”
Season 4, Emperors Wrath? 
This whole fight was Mk’s role shedding light. Making AL reflect on his actions while also giving him a karma beat down. And at the end with Mk present, he confesses before fixing his wrongdoings and dying. Sad. 
Since I don’t have a lot towards my theory. Trust me this was very little info on the ten kings. I can’t seem to find proper names for any of them. I have decided to make it an AU. Because In all honest I like this too much to not make it an AU. 
The AU is basically this. After season 4 Mk has been out of it. Guilt for Azure and scared of himself after seeing how powerful his monkey self was. But it’s not enough to take away his curiosity. Ever since his time in the scroll he has been confused on who he is. What he is. Until he comes across a women who seems familiar. Too familiar….
Remember the other monkey statue. Well it’s said that the fifth king has a twin sister.

if u saw the new trailer whats ur opinion?
im very excited for skirk,,,,
OH BUDDY YOUVE OPENED THE FLOODGATES CUZ IVE BEEN SPAMMING MY FRIEND WITH THEORIES LIKE HFJDJDJDJ I WAS SCREAMING THE ENTIRE TIME
Obvious spoilers for the fontaine archon quest in general for my thoughts and interpretations
Okay FIRST OF ALL NEUVI SENTENCING FURINA TO DEATH.
Okay so refer to what neuvi said at the end of Act 4 where 'all sovereigns are not im full dragonhood and it can only happen IF THEIR ARCHON DISAPPEARS'. I was hoping that Furina would somehow relinquish the gnosis or her godhood to Neuvi to let him be full dragonhood and stop the flood and WELL THIS LINES UP.
1) arlecchino did say furina was not archon like or has something wrong with her, 2) her playable character model HAS A VISION!!!!!!! 3) Iirc but her promo art, the one with the white bg with nation symbols on it, people say that it didnt have the symbols an archon would.
She's DEFINITELY losing her godhood here somehow and man. MAN IM SO EXCITED TO SEE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT
Second of all FURINA or should i say the HYDRO ARCHON as a whole
Tumblr media
She sounded MAD when she stated she wanted to use her own trial to show the world the true meaning of justice. This leads me to believe that focalors DOES have some sort of multiple sides/personalities to her. Especially with her announcing HER OWN TRIAL through the 3rd person.
Tumblr media
And well one of these sides is either Egeria's manifestation or furinas actual 'TRUE lady justice' side. A bit of a stretch but one of the official art in the livestream is multiple depictions of furina so it can be a lil nudge ya know.
Tumblr media
NEUVILLETTE!!!! NEUVI NEUVI NEUVI!!!
MAN ID KILL TO SEE THIS MAN IN ACTION FULLY ANIMATED, LET HIM BE FULL DRAGON AND KICK ASS!!!!! IM BEGGING YOU HOYOVERSE LET HIM BE MORE AWESOME!!!!
Okay this man definitely was acquainted to Egeria in some way and this extends to Furina as well (BECAUSE HE LOOKS SO SAD LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO CRACK THIS MANS FACADE). I like to believe that Egeria and Neuvi might have a sort of Mentor/mentee/passing of the torch relationship. Because in so far everytime we hear Egeria, she talks to neuvi as if to hope that he will learn to understand humanity or learn his purpose or find SOMETHING (i forgot exactly what she says). But yeah he clearly holds her to high regard and that sentiment might extend to furina either because Egeria entrusted Neuvi with Furina, his loyalty to Egeria and Fontaine, or Furina just reminded him of Egeria and regardless of the trial still didn't want harm to come to his archon.
Okay a step back, we know that neuvi has holes about his past when he came to the world as the sovereign successor. And his line (i think its his idk) 'i seem to remember now... this trial is...' could be a call back of something Egeria told him from the past.
I firmly believe that this prophecy was actually a trial for NEUVILLETTE and not FURINA. It could be a final trial for him and his understanding of his position as chief justice and humanity. WHICH would tie into Egeria's line
Tumblr media
and neuvi's line
Tumblr media
Finally the GNOSIS
Okay the most obvious place is in the Oratrice. I feel like because Egeria isn't truly dead (from the who Amrita thing), it's possible that she lives in the Oratrice where she guides Neuvi and Furina. That's why it seems like it has its own conciousness and agenda. It's why it falsely accused Childe (and presumably Furina too). It might be why neuvi i think says this.
Tumblr media
Anyways theres NO WAY the gnosis is staying in the oratrice lmao. There's bound to be a power transfer, the oratrice might be dead or dismantled because of its previous 'wrong' accusation for childe. And well im very much hoping it goes to Neuvi where he'll finally have his own meaning of Justice and no longer needs the assistance of the Oratrice to make judgements
I dont have much to say about Skirk, im most certainly looking forward to skirk childe interaction. Im guessing shes there at the abyss side either for the Narssizkruenz (fack spelling) ordo relation or well.. the gnosis. Im taking a random guess that she and the abyss might take away the gnosis to prevent celestia from descending early because fontaine is giving back the power they stole from a sovereign back to him.
ANYWAYS IM HYPED IM SO INSANE WAAAAAAAAAA

i love when the subject of modern au for the arcana comes up cause my only metric of judgement for it is What are you gonna do with Muriel. is he still. you know. practically homeless
cause it can be done well i believe it!! but i mean its interesting to me cause theres so many um. cultural differences i guess i can call it, and ramifications and implications and fucking more thesaurus words we get it to consider in comparing our "everyone has to have a document about *Everything*, whats your assigned number at birth, let me record you with 50 cameras at all times just in case, gimme your PapERS HOW OLD ARE YOU WHATS YOUR GRANDMAS MAIDEN NAME NO IM NOT SELLING YOU THIS CARTON OF EGGS UNTIL YOU TELL ME" society (Admittedly! not every single place in the world today is like this necessarily!!! so you can just put them someplace else and work from there!!! but youd have to know how life there actually looks like And also wait whats the point of this au if everything ends up the same lmao i wanted asra to have tiktok and work at starbucks what are we doing here) vs the old timey fantasy world presented in the game where its just "yeah sure you can go live in a forest theres no fences here lol bye dont get dysentery" which is how the world used to be i guess and thats so fun to ponder for me lol we really were just monkeys fucking about with sticks huh. good times
man this is why i dont actually write fanfics i get too lost in four different trains of thought and dont finish any of them lmao and i guess also cause of the "i Cant POSSIBLY write this story about kissing a dude if i cant describe the sociopolitical climate in this neighbourhood in the netherlands after the Batavian Rebellion and how it influenced the contemporaneous fauvistic arT MOVEMENT with UTMOST ACCURACY cause THATS WHAT HIS FAVOURITE PAINTING WAS THE ONE THAT SHOWS UP IN THIS THREE SECOND BLURRY BACKGROUND CLIP OF THIS SCENE IN HIS APARTMENT AND IS CRUCIAL TO HIS CHARACTER AND I HAVE TO NAIL IT WHAT DONT YOU GET" type personality i got going which i guess writers deal with by just going full "lol whatever i am god here and i make law" mode
i just started thinking about this cause of the new story on dorian in a modern au i got pretty hype about it teehee but yeah muriel hasnt shown up yet so i got into that whole spiral about wHERE ARE THEY GONNA PUT ME BOYE AAAGJHFN i hope he gets a good outfit lmao i love jules' vibe but i looked at asra n went aw Hell naw hed be way better dripped out you done my boy dirty cmon man. pashas hawaiian shirt tho fucking we're so back lets go lesbians hkdyyifulj Anyway they made lucio a wholeass bilionaire which had me shook a lil for some reason but i can see him as a total ~Musk-esque~ archetype lmaooo like that is literally so him, just barges in and makes people have good ideas for him gikgststnv oh god i hope theres not any elon fans reading this cause theyre not gonna appreciate that oh fudge ok lets get back to the point which was uuuuhhhhhhhhhh oh yeah i liked your muriel lives in a van concept i thought its good! yeah thats what i wanted to say. what a tumultuous journey i just had to invent to arrive here.
Oh yeah, I've been seeing a lot more posts and questions about the arcana's modern au, and it's why I was so happy to dig up all those old ask arcana posts! I'm so glad we have all that canon content from way back when, it was so sad that I could only put ten images in one post T~T
And Muriel definitely lives off the grid - I also remember another ask arcana that said in modern times he'd wear a cable knit sweater on top and leather pants and demonias on bottom and that works so well for him XD
Here's the screenshots since the links haven't been working:

imagine an alternate universe where jinwoo and jinchul started dating after Kang taeshiks death. So,I wonder how it will affect the story and happy ending prepare actually.
Aint that just canon but no rewind? (im delusional) anyways while i dont have a lot of opinions over taeshik x jinwoo or jinchul x taeshik (despite my love for it, especially after ragnarok) well for once it will definetly be interesting that jinwoo had to kill taeshik during the prisoners arc, like if they had been dating beforehand (bc taeshik likes the fact that he can outlast death so many times or smth, i have more to say but it will go into spoiler town) and just now jinwoo found out his job, then it will put them at conflictive stance where jinwoo had slowly become that person he loves and also hates. It probaly would eat him up knowing that not only was he closed to taeshik but also inherited some of his assasin traits at the end of the day. And then Jinwoo falling in love with jinchul later on would probably also put the latter to be anxious because he doesnt want Jinwoo to end up as psychopathic as Taeshik had once been. It would certainly be fun to explore more of those inherent similarities with Taeshik and Jinwoo, assasins in their own way liking the slaughter of others, but differentiate when it comes to what kind of slaughter, Taeshik he likes killing peoplle whereas Jinwoo likes killing magic beasts. And how, if it wasn't for that small difference he would have ended to be as psychotic or as heroic as the other is placed out to be.
That whole 'two sides of the same coin' kind of theme is what could have gone well, and what could have also led Jinwoo to ask himself just how far he is willing to kill, and if-- the longer his emotions keep fading and he more his blood lust for humans becomes rampant-- such actions could one day come turn him over to a new leap and end up with him becoming the villain of what he once tried to protect.
There certainly are some pieces there that make Jinwoo loose that sense of empathy as the stories go on. And this isnt to defend anyone but rather just see it from another perspective on how Jinwoo slowly drifts apart from reasonably thinking to committing the justice he thinks is deserved of what he views, no matter the cost or what others may think. (Guess I could say he slowly begins to act more and more selfish because he has already been ruthlessly hurt by those around him.)
From the very beginning his trust is broken by Mr Kim, and the fights with the Lizards and Taeshik are all justified as him trying to protect his life, and none of the others seem to be less justified as well, but theres a point in the story, The International conference, where Jinwoo doesn't really care about cooperation and rather would take things on by himself if it means his family is protected. (Yes, showing weakness at that conference would have been bad, but I don't really think a lot of people would have been down for killing another hunter right now, especially against the one who decimated Thomas and sent him straight to the ER. So no, that little exposition of 'I will kill anyone here who touches my family' would have caused literally the whole world more problems than actually solve them.) or if it means he can place judgement on others like how he did at the side stories with the murder case. And again, that isn't to defend any of the criminals or the people that tried to mess with him, but rather its to say that we, or humans really, have laws, and the enforcement on them for a reason. Jinwoo, for the most part lived in a world that was lawless, as it was said by the lizards, no one would know what happens when you die, so Jinwoo and other hunters had to make their own justice by themselves.
But those psychological differences and Jinwoo's own similarities to Taeshik were just swept under the rug pretty fast in favor of "well the others where shit" instead of taking the time to show that "hey, maybe Jinwoo's one solution methods of killing those he hates might not be so well when you consider that he could impose his own morals or opinions into others by force of death since everyone in the world has biases and often negates or lacks the information to change their view, and that isn't any different for Jinwoo. So instead of killing he could at least approach the subjects with a bit of more self control and finding a better solution that isn't *checks the side stories* fucking sending them to the shadow realm to be tortured."
And going bac kto the post that it was talking about (DAMMIT I RANTED OFF TOPIC) Jinchul could serve to reinforce that point by showing Jinwoo that yes, there is a system that will take care of those who threaten him and take advantage of others (KHA) and that there will be people to also judge his actions which he has to take into account more and more as he begins to loose his own emotions. Someone that could be there to protect him from, quite literally the biggest threat he has ever faced, which end up being Jinwoo's own self and the responsibility that comes with controlling death itself.
BUT IM NOT THE AUTHOR SO TO THE TRASHCAN YOU GO---

I'm a fandom old, so I'd also say there's a strand of entitlement that's always been around fandom, but it's so much more normal now (for both artists and writers) since fandom's become less of a haven for weirdos and more mainstream. Fan writers and artists create FOR FREE and share with us, so complaining or being an arsehole about it is frankly shit.
YEAH....... ive been in online fandoms for like a decade now myself so 😭
if i were to guess id say its probably because nowadays people grow up online and have their whole identities and social circles online too, and its usually very young people who act this entitled towards creatives. it seems a majority of them believe that what you consume and how you consume it reflects your character because theyve made what they consume such a heavy feature of their identity but thats just. not true? you cannot get an accurate understanding of another person based solely off you stalking their page. it sucks too because young people tend to be more reactionary and react based off emotion so their judgement will be even further clouded. not to mention since theyre so judgmental of anyone who disagrees with this they end up forming an echo chamber which just. oh man.
alot of the arguments i see can basically be reduced to "this makes me uncomfortable so that means its immoral and should be eradicated" and thats just. a Really bad mindset to have..... if you cant handle certain things youre much better off muting/blocking and curating your online experience appropriately. this isnt the real world after all, our creative art and writing does not involve reality, its often an escape from it. it is not us creatives responsibility to ensure your online experience is full of sunshine and rainbows. most you can criticize us for is if we tagged the posts appropriately. and then making sure those tags are muted is YOUR responsibility. please take care of yourselves. we dont want you hurting, but we are our own individuals with our own life stories and we should be allowed to express those
the internet will never be a safe haven for everyone. what you may deem immoral might be another persons way of expressing emotions that are killing them inside, and i think thats the beauty of art. it is a purely subjective medium that can mean something completely different depending on the person viewing it. like fuck man theres so many things i find deeply upsetting so i just do my best in blocking it out of my sight. am i still gonna stumble upon those upsetting things in the wild? of COURSE i am, especially since some of what i find upsetting may not be that big of a deal to a majority of the population, and thats unfortunately the reality we have to live with. all we can really do is ask those close to us to be mindful and choose who we engage with carefully

are you going to come back?
((I keep telling myself im going to, but im not sure. Im especially unhappy with how this blog was written and how it looks at the moment, bc theres a lot of things id Want to change before getting back into rp here, but I have no energy or motivation to do so 😔 my art block from last year is Still ongoing, im still deeply fixated on other fandoms, and VERY recently I had an epiphany of some kind and haven't been able to stop paying attention to the news, bc anxieties about what's happening in Gaza/the West Bank, Sudan, and Chile, and not to mention this next American presidential election, have me reassessing my priorities in life, ykwim?))
((Im still around technically, i wont be deleting this blog or anything, im just in kind of a tough spot, mentally+emotionally+physically, and that makes it hard to get reinvested in something like this.))
((There's also the factor of... feeling rather restricted in this community. It's not any particular person or group of ppls fault, people are entitled to feel however they want around fictional subjects and themes, but i know that the types of things that i like to write and rp are dark and mature, and this fandom [despite the Nature of the show itself and the topics it covers] tends to attract a lot of very aggressive, very judgemental people -- as im sure youre all aware 😂 i found some friends here, but even still, a lot of the time i know i Can't get into the kind of stuff i ACTUALLY want to write, because most of the ppl in this community would [at least, way back when,] assume that That kind of writing means I'm a bad, dangerous person who wants to engage with those themes in real life 🙃. Which isn't to say anyone is Wrong for avoiding me if darker themes trigger them, by all means PLEASE block me for your sanity if thats what you have to do!! but when most all of those Exact Themes are LITERALLY, graphically present in the show, now, it's like. Idk man whats going on! Why are you here! if sexually abusive relationships bother these fans so much, then Why are they in THIS fandom of all places instead of somewhere tangibly Safer for their sanity, yk???))
(( i don't know. Maybe im just a brat, but ive always felt a little put out by the Hazbin community online. Its extremely self policing and isolating trying to find people i can feel comfortable talk to about my ideas, so ive kind of... given up and moved on, found a nice group of Freaks to be perverted about the Avatar sequel instead lmao))
((So... idk. I guess we'll see. But im very sorry it may have been wishful thinking when i said id come back. I really, truly meant it at the time -- things just changed 💔, both in me And in the community. And maybe theyll change again, idk!but i Do know there's people in this overarching Hazbin Tumblr RP community who don't like me very much (which is Okay), and I don't want to force myself to walk on eggshells anymore -- so I'm won't💪😎))
((I adored my time here while i was active, whuch it why i wont delete it -- i go back to re read threads all the time! -- but unless there's a group of sexual weirdos developing that i could fall in with AND I can find a way to balance this with the rest of my life, im still gonna be on this indefinite hiatus 💀👍 sorry))
((Btw -- Palestinians are in desperate need of e-SIMs to keep in touch with their loved ones and to organize humanitarian aid within the Gaza strip itself -- if any of you have a few spare dollars, please consider getting involved. I know the news is very quiet rn, especially if you're in America like me, but let me make this very clear; We are. kind of sort of Already IN World War Three. Russia and China and the global south are finally starting to hold the west accountable and the west is failing a shitting its pants about it Spectacularly. The world order is literally shifting. There's not one, but SEVERAL major international conflicts brewing right now, as America is sliding into fascism at break neck speed bc Genocide Joe is finally realizing he's probably not going to get re-elected [on account of all the genocide] on TOP of finally seeing the tangible effects of climate change. South America and Australia are on FIRE. Like NEVER before.))
((Never Again is Now. We could be going over the temperature "tipping point" of the planet BY 2030. now is NOT the time to be wallowing in escapism, no matter how much we desperately need/want it. If there is EVER a time to get involved with the real world and to take a step back from the internet and high stress fandom bullshit, it is NOW. No matter what Side of these issues you stand on, EVERYONE needs to be voting, everyone needs to be paying attention.))
(( if you can't afford esims [no shame, i often can't either, money is tight everywhere], then at the very least get This website open in your tabs. It generates revenue with free Daily clicks, the proceeds of which are all sent to UN organizations -- particularly UNRWA, which is VITAL to maintain not only getting aid INTO Gaza, but also retaining Palestinians legal right to return to their land -- without UNRWA, Isreal can begin to LEGALLY, haphazardly "deport" Palestinians, which would take YEARS to reverse through future court proceedings. Do your part, it only takes a few seconds a day 💪🌱))
((Alright, thats all! Sorry if you wanted a short sweet answer, but ive actually been ruminating on all of this, so thank you for this ask, for giving me a chance to talk about it all. Im happy to see this community thriving in the wake of Season 1, even if im not joining in myself -- you all keep up the great work, and keep having fun with it ❤ let it empower you to explore the value of Charlie's message and think of ways to impliment it in your daily life And on the world at large‼))

🪐 🌻 💐 🍄 🍁
hi juice
🪐- Most chaotic group?
not sure exactly what this means by 'group' so im just going off my own definition i guess! vriska and kaitlyn are pretty chaotic together because they are both very nosy, judgemental grudge-holders who love to complain and get in people's business lol. but also when dante and scythe front together, oh boy. thats a different kind of chaos. i shant say.
🌻- What's a normal day for you as a system?
as normal a day for anyone else i suppose ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ we only experience amnesia under duress, so if its a normal day, its just like. chillin. only difference is i got a bunch of voices in my head. and also sometimes my demeanor and way of speaking will change drastically by the minute, but honestly i think its only really noticeable if you Know? never had, like, my mom or someone say that i seem like im acting different. i pass as mentally normal, and just seem shy and standoffish.
💐- Do you like being a system?
yeah most of the time :)
🍄- Do you prefer in-system dating or out-of-system dating?
juice are you asking me if i prefer my in-system partners over u? i prefer you to my own brain lol. these guys are cool but you complete us, bro... dating in-system is definitely "easier" i mean, when theres conflict it isn't as scary cause i dont worry that my brain guys secretly hate me cause i can like feel their feelings n shit, but when i have an argument with a flesh partner (or just friend) its a lot scarier and more precarious, but thats what makes it Life, thats just being Human and that's a vital part of existence, to me. i would not feel satisfied emotionally if i only dated the people that live in my head.
🍁- What's the most annoying thing about being a system?
definitely conflicting wants and desires. one of us wants something in life that the rest of us could not want less to do with. one of us is disgusted by something the others take delight in. some of us hate something while others love it. especially when it comes to opinions on other people... its really hard being friends with people when you've always got someone in your head saying how much they hate them :/ kind of a downer note to end on damn. byeeeee lol

Sorry to discourse at you, you can ignore this if you want. Regarding George's humor, this is a big area where I struggle to like George. Particularly in his relationship to Paul, but also just overall. Like, my sisters and I will make some pretty mean jokes about each other, but we would never make them in front of our extended family. There's a public/private divide with that kind of humor. If that makes sense? And I try not to be too hard on George, because maybe when you're that famous (2/2)
Anon Ask 2: ...it stops being fair to ask someone to censor the sense of humor. But I just get uncomfortable knowing that George knows that some portion of the audience will take the joke seriously and telling it anyway. And I feel like this is particularly prominant with Paul, who he has also said bad stuff about publicly in a non-joking way. I don't actually know what I'm asking here. I'm just blurting this out to you because engaging with how George's humor interacts with his celebrity is hard for me.
Reference to my post and original gif set which sparked this discussion
Hiya anon! No worries about sending an ask, Im happy to talk about this topic in a little more depth :) 
So something I didn’t really touch upon in my last post was that I do actually believe there were some Bitchy (for lack of a better term) things George said to Paul, particularly throughout the early 70s, which I think clearly went beyond harmless joking and were legitimately Mean Things to do or say. It’s not that I think these moments between George and Paul should be looked at in isolation, because there obviously was a long history between the two (and as well, the early 70s was just Complicated in general for everybody), so that should be accounted for if were going to criticise George for this. But despite the long history, I still think a lot of these things were unnecessary, and we should recognise that (and to be honest, not feel like we Always Have To Justify Everything? Sometimes people just do shitty things, and we can say that, and not have to victimise or vilify them for that). 
I feel like this is the type of point where George fans are gonna read it and think “okay so she *hates* George” and vice-versa with Paul fans—but to be honest, this isn’t really an area where I feel like its necessary to take sides. I feel like there can be a tendency to forget, especially when we’re trying to Psychoanalyse or Understand [or whatever you wanna call it] celebrities, that they’re all just human beings. Like everyone has said nasty things to other people, and everyones had nasty things said to them—but a period of hostility between two friends isn’t necessarily representative of what their relationship is really like, if you catch my meaning. My point I guess is kind of that, 50 or so years on, we should be able to recognise that Sure That Was Kind Of A Shitty Thing To Do, but theres a difference between recognising and critiquing something, and then actually passing judgement on an individual and Taking Sides, which often leads us to trying to justify Everything one person did while critiquing the other to excess. And real judgement seems fairly pointless to me in the case between George and Paul, because I think at the end of the day, they both just did Shitty Things to one another—but try being friends with someone for 15+ years without that happening. Im not saying that it means we should ignore aspect to their relationship or that it makes it licit, but I suppose what seems to be of more importance to me is that I think they both eventually tried change an adapt for one another.
I see what you mean as well when it comes to a public and private divide with humour; there are jokes you’d make in front of your closest friends/family, but wouldn’t make in front of other people. In this specific case though (with the “Paul has no good songs of his own” comment), I honestly just think this was Something Funny that came to Georges mind in the moment, and he wasn’t taking into the wider contexts, i.e music critics. And while I don’t want to Project or anything, just speaking from my own perspective I can say that irl Im the type of person who will say just about anything that comes to mind for me in the moment if I think its funny—and I get that impression from George too. I just feel like me and (probably) George are the types who just like to joke a lot, and are always looking to make other people laugh (as well as ourselves)—which kind of leads me to believe that when George makes a joke like “Paul has no good songs of his own left”, I think his expectation is that Paul is in on the joke, rather then just the butt of the joke. I guess thats really up for your own interpretation though (and as aforementioned, I think there were jokes in other periods of their lives where I wouldn’t feel this really rings true). 
I think as well, George must have known the music industry well enough by this point to be aware that sure, there were music critics and people sitting at home watching who genuinely would have Thought That. But again, if we’re speaking about intentions, I don’t get the impression that this was it, because as I mentioned before, I don’t feel like there was even any real intention behind the joke; I really just think it was a funny thing that came to mind for him; whether that makes it okay or not is up for debate (and to be honest, its your call really). Lowkey as well, I actually kind of think the people who Actually Believe Paul had no good songs of his own left (and so was Practically Forced to use some of Johns 😩) are really the butt of the joke? Like it rubs of as very dry, sarcastic commentary on those types of critics to me. 
I guess also if you look at most British comedians, a lot of humour relies on deprecating other people—especially on things like panel shows. Again thats obviously a different situation to the one George was in, but I think the general point is that when you have a very dry and sardonic sense of humour, you’re very prone to mocking other people, and that can be malicious—but at the same time, for a lot of people it really is just their way of telling jokes, and no Actual Offence is intended. 
But to return to the original point, I do hear what you’re saying in that ‘he has also said bad stuff about publicly in a non-joking way’, and I don’t really disagree. But what I was thinking with my response to that post specifically was like, there are genuinely mean things he said to Paul that I think are very-much worth discussing, but this imo just isn’t one of them? Like the way Im seeing other people respond [and this goes out to both the Staunch Paul Defendants AND the people saying “George was telling the truth!!” btw] just feels like an overreaction to me. So yeah—obviously I have no idea who you are anon, but tbh, I think if you wanted to get a discussion going about Georges treatment of Paul, theres a lot of room for that and Id be interested to read it! I just don’t feel that the joke we’re discussing here today greatly exemplifies your overarching point. 
But thats just my thoughts on this :) and tbh, I think I feel especially defensive of George in this specific instance just because Im Well Aware that his joke is the exact sort of thing I would say to people irl. Maybe its just a Sibling Thing, if you see what I mean—I think if you have a big family, everyones always trying to get the last laugh in also feel like this is an Irish Catholic Family thing but maybe thats a talk for another day lol.

heromari hades/persephone-inspired au bc i needed to write it out somewhere but cant quite prose it rn
details under the cut. just a warning, it gets. long.
basil (god of flowers n growth, "of the golden throne") n aubrey (goddess of war n courage, "the unyielding") live in the forest.
hero (god of healing and music, "love-giver") and kel (god of travel and camaraderie, "of the people") live in the city, amongst the humans.
mari (goddess of knowledge and judgement, "the all-seer") rarely rests, oft roaming from place to place when not at the entrance of the abyss (essentially the equivalent of afterlife) overseeing souls and their fates
within the abyss dwells the twin gods of creation and destruction - sunny and omori (known as "the beginning" or "the end", depending on context). who is who? both are both, both with the ability to create and destroy.
the story starts w mari gone. poof! disappeared! all the other gods (except sunny n omori bc no one actually knows where they dwell and theyre isolated sad sacks) search for her bc fabric of the universe and balance and literally watching the abyss entrance! what are all the souls gonna do w her gone?
("all the other gods" involves a wider cast that i am not coming up with rn.) also. gods living in the same area would know each other better. kel knows almost everyone hence hero knows almost everyone. most (mortal n immortal alike) are mildly wary/scared of mari.
anyway. everyones searching for mari. the abyss is deep and dark and has areas where it sorta... leaks through to the rest of the world (like black space n headspace). hero stumbles upon one of the entrances and falls.
now a very important distinction is that sunny, mari n omori have wings bc u need wings to fly above the dark waters of the abyss w/o being consumed/tainted by it. kel has little winged shoes (like hermes) but otherwise no one else (of the main cast at least) can fly.
so hero falls. at least, until something - someone - dark swoops in and carries him to safety.
"you should be more careful!" a bit of light laughter and a boop on the nose. "the abyss isnt forgiving!"
his savior returns back to the abyss before hero can say anything in return - not a word of thanks, an ask for the others name or anything.
three guesses who this savior is and the first 2 dont count (its a heromari-probably-fic. no duh its mari)
anyway. hero goes back to some god meeting and reports that he found nothing and apparently fell into the abyss. someone mentions that no one has searched the abyss yet and that mari could be there.
no one wants to go to the abyss. for good reason!
so!
guess who gets sent on the abyss-searching mission! kel bc wings, hero bc he fell there, aubrey just in case theres something bad, and basil bc... aubrey said she would fall n demanded someone who could make something to walk on whom she also trusted.
and so the team sets off to the abyss! they enter through the main entrance and its dark and damp and they did not bring a light sourc- nevermind aubrey literally glows with rage and kel literally glows with happiness too
hero gets lost again, first within the upper cavern system. then he falls out of the cave system.
mari catches him again and makes the "are you falling for me" joke
they chat a bit and then mari walks him back to where everyone is freaking out looking for him and then she disappears.
hero tells them about how theres a potential new goddess of the abyss that saved him. no one is impressed bc the abyss is literally the opposite of like. everything the gods stand for. aubrey decides he just doesnt want to admit he got lost. kel thinks he's screwing w them bc what older sibling doesnt screw with their younger sibling?
hero sulks for a bit n they continue searching for mari
then! they find this little... floating.... castle?? but by floating, they mean like. upside down.
"Well!" Kel says. "This is what we brought Basil for!"
"Yeah, flower boy," Aubrey smirks, shooing a protesting Basil towards the edge of the cliff. "Do your thing."
guess what. hero slips and falls.
cue screaming.
mari swoops in and catches him, whispers in his ear "we have got to stop meeting like this"
they do not stop screaming, seeing mari as a threat.
now, hero still does not know that the stranger saving him is mari because hes kinda. smitten. lovestruck. whatever. also bc mari looks different than she used to. perks of being reborn from the waters of the abyssal river ig
aubrey demands to know if mari has been following them. mari says something to the extent of "not intentionally! its hard to not know when you see everything in the realm"
(emphasis on "in the realm" because the abyss is distinctly a different realm from like. the rest of the world. hence mari doesnt know how long shes been gone/the search efforts to find her)
a moment of silence. mari awkwardly goes "uhhh did you think the all-seer was just a nickname? its not. not really."
see all this couldve been solved if hero wasnt a pan disaster and asked mari for her name the first time he fell into the abyss. aubrey points that out, unamused.
basil asks mari if she lives in the castle.
she says its complicated! and that maybe its easier to just show them.
kel tells her that every god's been searching for her and she should come back.
she says its also complicated! all the more they should head to the castle!
to the castle! inside of it is first, a carpet of red hands. next, a throne of red hands. everyone is understandably creeped out, w the exception of mari, who rolls her eyes and scoffs at the dramatics
she knocks on the throne of red hands.
sunny/omori answers the door (?)
anyway it boils down to: the abyss is no place for a god. it sucks out the energy and consumes it, until the god is nothing but a husk. that was exactly what happened to mari, w how often she visited sunny n omori, and how close she stayed to the abyss.
(omori gestures at a skeleton next to them. it bears a disturbing resemblance to mari)
so! twin gods of creation and all, sunny n omori remade mari with the remnants of her spirit/soul/whatever and the waters of the abyss so that she would be able to like. survive there.
anyway. reborn from the waters of the abyssal river, mari looked a little more like a biblically accurate seraphim than what she used to look like. (six wings and six eyes on each wing. plus one eye in her hair. yes thats a thing)
so, sunny n omori check up on mari and they're like. okay! you are probably not in danger of your form collapsing into nothingness anymore. you can go. probably. you need to eat something from the overrealm to be able to remain there tho bc ur more abyss than overrealm.
mari takes thaat in stride. everyone else is horrified.
see. i cannot write romance. this is an issue bc presumably after this, they all go back up to the overrealm - hero gives her a cookie, mari promptly tries to outbake him - and then explain stuff to the other gods.
hero n mari are in love. it is very mutual. they get together. this is vague bc, once again, i cannot write romance
mari asks how hero feels ab marriage. hero likes the idea but also mari is mostly abyss. mari has a solution. the solution is to drink abyss water. hero is a fool in love and accepts.
they live happily ever after. the end.

ok some thoughts
ok i do have complicated feelings on nat's death. firstly like air this one out rq: real fucking fuming that some ppl serioussllyyyyy are attacking freaking juliette for it, like? ok.... so your response to "its really fucked up that they killed nat who had finally found peace and was starting to overcome her addiction etc." was to attack the actress who has every right to leave a job if she wants to. i guess in other news 1+1=4.
but anyways sigh i have mixed feelings like.... i think theres a Part of me that kind of. ok. super unpopular opinion bc i know this ME & my own cyncism and "issues" or whatever & kinda shy to say this both bc it makes me look edgy as fuck but also like.... idk as someone whos had mental health problems, lets say, and has sort of resigned to this idea of like. oh i died a long time ago & theres a point in my life where i just think i stayed , and i dont think theres any way of going back, something something about living on borrowed time and it feeling meaningless . or whatever. stares at you pretend i didnt say all that. my point is i dont know i kind of- its bc i dont wannaaaa say ppl cant recover, that natalie was too far gone, this that and the other, bc i dont think you can make those judgements abt others (fictional or not) only yourself but... idk my point is. i fuckin get it when shes on the plane like that, as shes dying or just dying when she felt like she should have bc ever since its just been fucking horrible and well okay. sorry man i do kinda feel it even though i acknowledge its a shitty message.
i dont think it helps either that her "recovery arc" wadnt my favourite not bc i like. AGAIN im not saying this bc i dont think you can recover or get better its more like.. i was never a fan of the execution of it. i felt like it happened a bit too fast, and i would have preferred more scenes with natalie and lottie rather than natalie and lisa and natalie and the rest of the cult and i feel like that would have been more powerful to me bc the cult themselves feel kind of just... underdeveloped, and very much functional as a means for lottie and whats going on with her . i fully expect them to never be mentioned again after some point and to be completely ignored with the way this show has been going
and like i dont mind lisa that much but i dont now im kinda uninterested in characters that just get introduced and we immediately get SO much focus on them when theres, as i said , other more interesting and efficient ways to explore similar things (natalie and lottie a better dynamic for example) AND other stuff thats getting ignored big time.
like as an aside. i dont mind lisa as much BUT one example is also fucking walter and i dont like how theyre using him to kinda reduce misty to a bit of a joke AND cheap out on her own development (i think she can carry fine on her fucking own without him) but also bc he takes up so much runtime with his goofy little bits that just dont do it for me when again we're missing other shit from, like, FUCKING SIMONE FOR EXAMPLE whos barely been mentioned which is crazy. actually crazy. that she has barely been mentioned and tai's whole storyline has been ignored like that
but anyway even with lisa, i dont know- the whole thing with going to se her family, ugh... call me a jaded asshole, but like it just felt so. unsubtle. with the waythat whole scene was kinda executed. is that a cunt thing to say. but i dont know theres also other parts of the cult i just cant fuckin vibe with- i just feel like its so... clumsily done at times, and i cant quite articulate why i think that.
anyways . i get why a lot of ppl dont like natalies death in the end bc yeah it is kinda... a shitty message to send, even if i do kinda feel like well yeah damn yeah you know. but like also i do think theres the other obvious issue of like... with the way this show is, and as good as it is, i feel like theres gonna be more problems that develop and exacerbate over time. i really feel like they needed to introduce more characters earlier on and/or reveal less in present day bc whilst i dont think the tension is everything , and i dont think the shock value of ppl being hunted/dying in the past timeline is everything i do think its gonna have effects on the present time line and them trying to compensate. nd anyway now theyre just gonna do shit like try to tragically kill the women in the present vis a vis nat for like kinda no reason imo bc i do think it was . ultimately such a weird fucking way for her to die and to end even if i did resonate with her dying scene
and i do think there IS some bite that kinda being lost and its a bit weird when they write themselves into holes and have to try and flesh out new characters in the past that we know are just gonna straight up die so soon. a
its why i also didnt really like the idea of krystal. fuck i dont like the idea of krystal and walter being introduced to have a rapport with misty and i think thats just bc i LIKED her being alone . i liked no one fucking liking her. maybe its bc i projected too hard, but also its just like... i dont know it feels so fucking WEIRD that misty has had 0 friends and then she incidentally only just realises that some girl on the soccer team shes been orbitting for forever is like her type of weird and whatever whatever bah bah bah LIKE... theyre clearly trying to spin stuff for her to do, the same with the inclusion of walter, and its like. i dont know again in MY opinion and maybe its my fault for both projecting and setting an expectation but... i think a much more interesting thing to explore would be ownership of herself and her own fucking weirdness and being able to do that alone without needing the validAation of the others . am i crazy. like again i keep thinking abt her in the future and her and walt and ugh how much more i would love it if it was her fighting by herself to try and get natalie out of there. YES its harder to execute in a tv show but i do think it owuld be so much more interesting than taking the . in my opinion lazier route of just sticking in other characters to use to give her storylines
anyway what else was i gonna say fuck this was meant to be about natalie yeah like. thats also what im kinda mad at and why i dont like the inclusion of the extras like walter and lisa, like... i thinkits so much stronger when its just focussing on the dynamics of the girls (and their established ties, from the beginning of s1, i.e callie or simone, etc.) and i think mistys arc this season would have been better if it was a focus on her and nat, even if it was totally onesided rather than fucking walter and
ok im done can i also say. cant wait for shauna to ascend to antler queen in the current timeline. let her go fucking insane i say

we will start with cs ranboo. The mind aspect for him is most definitely introvert. Introverts are reserved and very introspective. They are very sensitive to their environments so that they are observant but can often find a struggle with sensory input. All this sounds csranbooy i think!
the second aspect is energy, which describes what people usually do with information presented to them. I would say csranboo is intuitive, which is characterized by an imaginative thought process. Thinking about both the past and the future when considering an object or scenario. trying to find complex and sometimes vague interpretations of things such as art.  their minds often drift in conversation, and they are likely to think of "what if?" scenarios on the regular. to me this sounds like walking the fine line of imagination and anxiety, but who am i to judge. <- literally was assigned intuitive. 
next is nature, how we deal with emotions and decisions! this one is making me think really hard. thinking means there is a value on rationality, but does not eliminate the fact that feelings come into play. ex: me, who has very irrational thinking and strong irrational emotions but i value rationality above all when making decisions for myself. this one i struggle with understanding the most.
however i think ranboo is a feeling kinda guy. people like this show excessive concern for others even to their own expense. They generally function on the logic of "who does this help?" at least according to the website im referencing. which is 16personaliys.com
Then comes the tactics aspect. I honestly feel like it comes down to how spontaneous someone is. I would say ranboo fits into the judging trait. (which inst being judgemental, despite its name). people like this are more secure and confident when they have a set plan to follow and often keep backup plans in their mind at all times. they set specific goals for their days. too many surprises in a row leaves them stressed or uneasy. they rarely enjoy the unexpected.
so what do we have? INFJ, or the advocate. but we aren't done! There is one more smaller aspect that exists within the personality, which is identity. Theres no real argument here that csranboo is turbulent. Those who are turbulent often look back on their regrets in life. They are perfectionists eager to improve. They often compare themselves to others in a negative way. Also in short turbulent is someone who is stressed and insecure. I guess. Idk man
So now! Finally we have a full personality type for this dude. INFJ-T! The turbulent advocate. But lets see if the description actually matches our little guy…
Okay preface to this, I despise how these personalities are described. So ima try and describe them myself without all the things that make my skin crawl. Idk what it is about it! The website just makes me frustrated.
Advocates focus on their thoughtfulness and personal values. They are idealistic and find success through helping others.they hold their consciousness above all else, and feel the need to act on what they see as right. They often feel out of place and are constantly seeking a greater purpose. 
They value deep relationships and have a desire to know and be known with people around them. They prefer meaningful conversation over small talk.
Strengths: creative, insightful, principled, passionate, altruistic
Weaknesses:sensitive to criticism, perfectionistic, avoidant of the ordinary, easily burnt out
Okay and the section i hate most is romance, here advocates are supposed to yearn for deep true love. Whatever the hell that means. I think the funniest thing ever was reading the romance section of INTJ and it was just like “yea no they kinda hold themselves above romance and find it hard to understand it, them idiots” like wow assigned egotistical and aro by myers briggs.
advocates are not satisfied by shallow friendships in passing. They want to have deep connections and hold their friends to high moral standards and they value loyalty and authenticity.
Turbulent advocates can be self critical when they cannot help someone or something to the extent they think they should. They often exaggerate the impact things have on themself of the people they care about. They often feel out of control.
So what can we conclude from this? Personally i feel that this description wasn't really that accurate to csranboo, despite the individual aspects of the personality lining up! Well, the turbulent specific description fit. And the overall description loosely fit. But it feels too general.
Truity describes this personality as,”creative nurturers with a strong sense of personal integrity and a drive to help others realize their potential. Creative and dedicated, they have a talent for helping others with original solutions to their personal challenges.” which doesnt really give off csranboo vibes.
So what do i do now? I took a quiz and tried to channel the cranboo energy in the answers, which was honestly easier than when i took it myself! hashtag inconsistent personality or what not. There was a question that said “do you enjoy going to museums” and i said yes because of that one time i think tumblr user femboytommy took csbeeduo to the museum when you had like let people babysit the cast.
Oh and theres a relationship section to the quiz which made my brain short circuit.
The result of the quiz was INFJ! 
The quiz, found on truity said this!
“As an INFJ, you are guided by a deeply considered set of personal values. You are intensely idealistic, and can clearly imagine a happier and more perfect future. You can become discouraged by the harsh realities of the present, but are typically motivated and persistent in taking positive action nonetheless. You feel an intrinsic drive to do what you can to make the world a better place.
You want a meaningful life and deep connections with other people. You do not tend to share yourself freely but appreciate emotional intimacy with a select, committed few. Although your rich inner life can sometimes make you seem mysterious or private to others, you profoundly value authentic connections with people you trust.
You have a unique ability to intuit others' emotions and motivations, and will often know how someone else is feeling before that person knows it himself. You trust your insight about others and have strong faith in your ability to read people. Although you are sensitive, you are also reserved; you are a private sort, and are selective about sharing intimate thoughts and feelings.”
Now i feel that this description fits more than the prior ones, but I guess that's how this all goes!
In conclusion: csranboo’s personality is INFJ-T but specifically in the way those specific aspects describe him. Whereas the perception of those traits combined is often inaccurately described in the context of csranboo specifically.
(⅔)
the interesting thing about the introvert/extrovert thing for cs!ranboo is that i was initially adamant about his character being more extroverted than cs!tubbo's! i'm not sure why but that was like initially my vision. the more i write him though i realize that is kind of an inconsistency and he's deffo more introverted, but idk i think if he had more stability in his life he would be more likely to go out to social gatherings and things!
would agree w/ intuitive! he's a pretty abstract thinker in a lot of ways and i haven't put much time into thinking out their learning styles (regrettably cos i think that could be cool) but i feel like if i looked more into it i might find some neat overlap there!
i HIGHLY agree with cs!ranboo being more feeling over thinking and by a long-shot; that's actually what i'm most certain about! you don't see it all the time in the fic but with some near upcoming events and also a few in the past, you see that ranboo's decision making skills actually bank a lot on his emotional state. you see this with the navigation of some of his close relationships with people (Tommy specifically) and also some of the choices he makes you can tell he like... does Not think out the logical reasoning behind this
it's something i find really interesting about ranboo and tubbo's character differences and particularly how they intersect with the different ways both of them are 'independent' as people, because ranboo is a lot more concretely independent and has a lot more experience doing things which makes him better at navigating life alone, but he also is not nearly as good problem solving situations because he tends to respond emotionally first and then reasoning it out second
ranboo's hardest one for me is prospecting vs judging because it's kind of difficult to say? the more i do think on it though i'd agree judging bc he does like having plans but he is hard to determine for that one
ranboo's turbulent but funnily enough i'd put him closer to the middle than tubbo. not like that close to the middle they're both very turbulent but despite ranboo's life inconsistencies if he had a bit more stable of a life he would have a pretty good idea what he's doing
i will note one of the biggest flaws for ranboo's character is that he has a moral code that he truly thinks is like. the Highest moral code. or the Right Things To Do but very frequently they aren't LOL so that little bit in the description does fit!
HELPPP NOT THE ROMANCE SECTIOFSDJKFHDS
yeah the art jade did for them going to the museum is canon i think both of them would go to museums together all bc of that
i agree w/ the latter description fitting more! i typed two paragraphs about some stuff that i kind of disagree with but the more i typed them the more i realized idk how relevant they are or accurate they are so i deleted them
all in all yep! i agree w this a lot

It twas the day before christmas, the kisaragi foundation was more quiet than usual as finally everyone gets a rare two day break for the holiday, however midori was with minako in front of the building searching for a certain someone.
Tumblr media
"Minako, while I do trust your judgement...I'm really not sure why you're insistent ryutaro's here..."
Tumblr media
"Midori do you know what today is? Of course he'd be here, just look in the back."
Tumblr media
"The back..? You mean of the foundation?"
Tumblr media
"Yes the back of the foundation! It's been years since the graveyard was built how do you still not remember where it is!?"
Tumblr media
"Oh! Oh...."
Midori tilted her head down saddened, she did know it was there she just...Never really visited too much...She guessed with how occupied she was she just kinda easily forgot about it. She sighed and looked at minako apologetically, she didn't mean to come off as insensitive really...Minako returned a sad look, she understood..of course she did. After taking a moment the two walked behind the foundation, and sure enough there was a beautiful overgrown garden filled with gravestones, because of the winter the flowers and bushes had been frozen over but by some miracle not dead...And moving their eyes over to a certain gravestone there of course was ryutaro, sitting down criss crossed on the ground in front of it, a hand on his cheek..Minako shouldered midori lightly signaling her to go talk to him and so she approached.
Tumblr media
"Ryutaro...You shouldn't be out in the cold like this..."
Tumblr media
"I know...I just...Had to see her today."
Tumblr media
"..."
Midori carefully sat down next to him, the ground was covered in snow but the feeling of it was oddly refreshing for her...She looked at ryutaro before looking at the gravestone...Kiyoka maki's gravestone....
Tumblr media
"Why...Do you come here every year? She...She wouldn't want you celebrating her birthday like this..."
Tumblr media
"....I....I just can't help but think a lot today, about her...About the way she died...About all those times I told her to....I didn't mean it not any of it but-.....I wish I could've said sorry to her just once....Just tell her that I cared about her...."
Tumblr media
"And her birthday......Today if she were still here....Would she still go out and party like she did before? Would she have changed and did something else...? I'll...I'll never know, she'll never get that chance."
Tumblr media
"Oh ryutaro..."
Tumblr media
"....."
Tumblr media
"You know she always hated her talent, she never wanted to be known just for her sniper skill...It was just something for fun for her even if she was extraordinary at it...All she ever wanted was to be seen as anyone else, to have lots of friends and live life to it's fullest....But no one except me..And this foundation will know about that."
Tumblr media
"When...When people look back at hopes peak, they aren't going to see kiyoka maki a girl who was taken far too soon, or kiyoka maki that girl that loved to socialize and hang out her friends, who cared about human life more than anything....They'll just see another ultimate lost to the tragedy...Maybe not even that...And no one will celebrate today or her or think of today and be reminded of her...They'll think of...of...That girl that caused it all!"
Tumblr media
"No one is going to remember her except us! They'll only see today as the day junko enoshima the girl who made the tragedy was born! EVERYTHING KIYOKA DID EVERYTHING SHE LIVED FOR, THAT SHE DIED FOR ITS ALL GOING TO BE FORGOTTEN AND IN HER PLACE EVERYONE WILL REMEMBER SOMEONE WHO NEVER EVEN DESERVED TO BE BORN!!"
Tumblr media
"....How....How could I not think about that.....If no one else will remember her today even if it's bad....I don't want to forget her too...."
Tumblr media
".....I know.....I know.....It hurts, it really hurts....I can't put into words like you can...But it hurts....I wish she didn't have to die...I wish kakureru didn't have to die...I wish things were different....But theres nothing we can do but try and keep working and fighting for them...."
Tumblr media
"But what I said before is true too...She wouldn't want you to remember her like that...She'd want to be celebrated...Or for you to live your life to the best of your abilities....Thinking of the what if's and the bad won't help the pain..."
Tumblr media
"But how can I not? Every time I even hear her name I can only think about how she never got to do so many of the stuff she said she wanted to do, how she'll only be remembered for her ultimate...How...How can I just ignore those thoughts midori?"
Tumblr media
"...You don't...."
Tumblr media
"You...You think those thoughts, and you remember her, and you also remind yourself that's why were doing all this. That's why we fight every day isn't it? Why we work so hard no matter how exhausting or difficult it gets, Were fighting for our families, for the hope they died with and left us with, for the people who have hopes and dreams and lives just like theirs...just like hers! Yeah we can't ignore all the bad stuff but that just gives us another reason to keep going! So no one has to think those same thoughts again!"
Tumblr media
"......You know I never took you as someone who did inspiration speeches midori."
Tumblr media
"E-Eh? W-Well it just kind of slipped out, b-but you get my point!....Right?"
Tumblr media
"Yeah....I get it....Thanks."
Tumblr media
"It's nothing...S-So...Are you ready to go now...?"
Tumblr media
"Yeah...I think so."
Ryutaro and midori stood up midori taking his hand and walking them both to minako who seemed a bit teary eyed but she waved it off, the three then walked back to the front of the building and then onto the side walk, chatting about the holiday and their relief for the holiday....But ryutaro couldn't help but look back just once and muttered out one sentence;
"Happy birthday kiyoka....Big sis...."

Hey there I sent an anon (hopefully I remembered to put anon on because wow this is embarrassing 😭) about going out and seeing an old friend who’s much older than me (almost ten years) and is another old friends ex boyfriend and haha I’d like to apologize for that as I was quite drunk when I sent it in. I have no idea what I said in the anon but now that I’ve recuperated I’m like freaking out because I’m pretty sure I was really obvious about being into him. Other people we know were there and now I’m just mortified thinking I’ve made a fool out of myself and that he’s just a nice person and isn’t into me. Bestie if you have any advice it’d be greatly appreciated lol thank you
Hi there lovely I'm so sorry I'm only just replying to this!!! Went through a bit of a mood dip haha.
I got your last anon too and delayed replying because I actually wasn't sure how best to reply. It's hard to make a judgement without knowing how old you are if you know what I mean.
Cause see in my country legal is 16 and I'd say 16 and 30 is a big no, and like in America is it 18? And 18 and 30 is also probably a stay away.
HOWEVER I'm not going to tell you to stay away from a guy just because he's older. I really don't believe there's a cut off (other than legal cut off) that tells you whether or not you can date someone safely or not. If you're underage and they are pursuing you then obviously that's dangerous but that isn't the situation you're in.
Some people like older guys, I've a cousin who is 27 just now and marrying a man in his 50s who she genuinely really loves. It's a really healthy relationship and it would be so wrong to judge it just because he's older. They've been together since she was 22 as well i think.
Also it depends what kinda 30 year old he is, a lot of 30 year olds, whilst mature aren't like, ready to settle down get married have kids and lead like adult boring adult lives. If that makes sense? Essentially what I'm trying to get at is age doesn't necessarily mean that you won't be mentally and emotionally in tune with one another.
I'd say there are difficulties there sometimes, theres a small small age difference between me and B and like, I notice quite often I'm very neurotic and a little naive/emotionally immature in that, i get wounded by shit that isn't even intended to wound you know, like B won't hold my hand on a walk and I'll be like Omg This Is The Worst Day Of My Life We Are Doomed. When like, he's not holding my hand cause hes walking the dog and didn't think it would be convenient trying to hold onto both of us.
I know that sounds like a tangent but I guess I'm trying to say that being similar or different by a lot in age COULD mean that you're emotionally out of sync, but that also people always are and bejng close in age also can mean you are too sometimes. Its about knowing that you yourself are going to be able to navigate it and cope when you hit difficulties.
So that's my view on the age gap bit. Basically depending on how young you are and whether you feel like you're attracted to older/more emotionally mature or kind of, at a different stage in life people... (which again, I am. I have no desire to be with laddy youth boys that wanna go clubbing and that kind of stuff, like B gives off ultimate dad energy and his hobbies are growing veggies in the garden and watching twin peaks)
... Depends on whether you should go for it. If you like them and are into them and want to try it, based on age alone, go for it.
The other thing you mentioned does make it more complicated though, how close is the friend whose ex they are?
If this is one of your best friends you need to navigate it veryyyy carefully, and consider a) do you like this man enough to risk things being weird between you and your pal B) if things went weird would u lose your pal or him? Could you make things work keeping both?
You could talk to your friend first and maybe mention like that you might be into him... Also if they are a mate, and they broke up with this guy, this is the best way to find out if something bad happened between them and like, dodge a bullet.
If your pals mature though and they really are over him, and nothing bad happened between him and them, then they will probably be okay with this anyway? Idk, I think like, I have a friend that I once slept with/had a minor thing with, and if him and one of my friends got together (I'm lowkey rooting they will actually) I would be fine with it.
If they aren't that close a pal, and they've moved on and already have a new bf then idgaf, you get your man, go for it, it's whatever.
Honestly it's tricky and I get why you're awkward and thinking about it alot. I would be too.
Also right, no matter how obvious u think u made that shit, bestie probably didn't pick up on it and didn't notice. Men will quite often try to presume that everything is just a woman being friendly, because they don't want to make the mistake of overstepping a boundary or assuming a woman is into them. Like good guys anyway, will more likely brush any kind of hint you make off, especially a guy like that who is older than you.
I think you'll have to be confident and initiate this is you take it forward, if he's a decent guy he probably won't suddenly come onto you haha.
I know that sounds dumb but a lot of men who aren't total cunts have the fear that they will hurt/scare/offend a woman/ruin their friendship with a woman by misreading a signal.
Maybe you should just try and get coffee with him or hang out with him just you two, find an excuse like a gig or something, or just message like dya fancy going for a pint, something casual but where you get to be alone. It'll help you gauge what's actually going on idk.
Sorry I don't feel like I've been a lot of help x

I know It May Be a bother, but how do u feel when an artist u admired gets called out for their past/shitty behavior, or turna out to be a bad person? (Like what happened to Squiggly) It's normal to feel bad, because you genuinely enjoyed their work and now you feel like a jerk for liking It??
Tumblr media
of course its normal to feel bad but dont feel guilty about being attached to something problematic, you didnt know shed turn out like this and its not like emotions and fond memories can be just switched off
id say be careful about still engaging with it and consider if you still could or shouldnt engage with it anymore
for example if its a song only featuring a problematic person among many other people then i give it a shrug if the song means a lot to me im keeping it unless the person in question did something like really bad (or hearing them ruins the song for me then duh im not listening) but i guess a lot about it is up to personal judgement
honestly as long as you keep supporting people like that to the minimum or try to not support them at all i say its fine 🤷‍♂
for example my partner did a fantastic cover of one of songs squiggly worked on with other folks and for them it was a great experience and honestly if you dont wanna hear her voice theres covers actually 👍
but yeah finding out about those types of things is always just disappointing and honestly upsetting because like! we could have nice things! but we dont and that requires us to put some hard thinkin into stuff thats often supposed to be escapism - it sucks! but gotta deal with it and definitely not belittle the problems those people cause
