it really does drive me crazy trying to interact with any of the popular fantasy high posts on here. because people will say with their whole chest they hate and have got no sympathy for the rat grinders and that a) jawbone should've punched kipperlilly for coming to him with her Undiagnosed Mental Health Issues (you know, like the ones adaine used to have in freshman year?) b) the bad kids should take them all someplace to 6v1 them one by one and cold blooded murder them (??????) c) whole heartedly hate and make fun of them for being scared and alone and dead when they went on an adventure with a teacher and adult who was supposed to PROTECT them in a place they weren't prepared for.

the rat grinders were just. normal students. they are more like you than you could ever be like the bad kids. they were mid & they didn't want to be so they pushed themselves too fast too far and now all of them have got the worst survivor's guilt on earth on top of actively having to serve the rage incarnation of a dead god.

if you have the cognitive dissonance where one of the bad kids was in the plot line and you'd be drawing fanart making angsty meta crying about your poor baby forced into a bad situation and turn around and go 'lol nah shoot THESE guys in the head though' when it's an NPC I can only assume you've not understood narrative parallels or learned empathy past, like, a kindergarten level

#agreeing cause here is the thing... you can dislike these characters cause they are ANTAGONISTS #HOWEVER #being THIS mad at fictional teenagers is just not it gang #yes they arent great people but neither are the bad kids! #the whole thing with teens is theyre pieces of shit that are tryig to figure themselves out #You cant tell me that if Adaine had a slightly different experience she wouldnt't be like Kipperlilly #Adaine is my example because taking out the nightmare king plot her fanily was pretty rudimentary #and yet she was so angry all the time #Kipperlilly is mean #and being jealous of Riz's dad being dead is inherently weird and wrong #but i think that jealously for the worst thing is pretty common in teens #i for sure had it and had had those feelings since i was a kid #the rat grinders are just as entitled to be flawed as the bad kids #Ivy may be snide.. Oisin pretty cunning.. Kipperlilly cruel.. Buddy misguided.. Mary Ann bland.. Ruben edgy #CAUSE THEY PARALLEL THE BAD KIDS #THE WHOLE POINT IS THAT THEY ARE DIRECT REFLECTIONS OF WHAT THE BAD KIDS COULD HAVE BEEN #anyway thats my two cents added

Trying to draw Buddy Dawn but his hair is hurting my brain

[froschdoesstuff]

Do you guys think some part of Kipperlilly wonders why she wasn't important enough for Lucy to come back for?

#fhjy spoilers #fhjy #the only person in her party to side with her on everything else #kipperlilly is by no means good but she is a kid #do you think they picked buddy because they knew he wouldnt be so devoted #do you think Kipperlilly learned from that 'mistake'?

[froschdoesstuff]

lucy, you're coming back to us too, right? to me?

#THIS IS WHAT IM MEANING ABOUT KIPPERLILLY PROBABLY WONDERING WHY LUCY CHOSE NOT TO COME BACK YALL #Anyway this art is gorgeous and hesrtbreaking omg #fhjy #fhjy spoilers

Lucy and Yolanda, two people so devoted to what they do to who they were that they didn't want to come back with that rage.

Lucy who was so close to Kipperlily who killed her. Lucy who found the world much like winter, harsh and cold, but found warmth in connections with others. Lucy who would rather stay dead, her soul forbidden from the afterlife she probably dreamed of for the followes of Ruvina, than come back full of rage.

And Yolanda who gave up her own divinity to teach students. Who nurtured those students and took their concerns so seriously. Who let Kristen stay in class with no god despite that seeming impossible. Yolanda who cared so deeply about people in that way, so badly about Lucy that she would rather stay dead than come back filled with rage.

They made that choice because they cared and had so much hope for the interactions we share with others.

Kipperlilly who probably thought her best friend would come back like she probably did.

Buddy Dawn who was not connected so strongly to Sol that he decided to follow Ankarna and come back to life...

buddy dawn cannot raise himself from the grave.

buddy dawn is not a chosen one.

buddy dawn is a child.

buddy dawn was manipulated by organized religion through no fault of his own, most likely since he was born.

buddy dawn had his throat slit by people he probably considered good friends.

buddy dawn is kristen applebees in a different—worse—life.

buddy dawn is dead, and there’s a good fucking chance helio won’t answer his questions.

#i knew he would die but the fact she did it solely because she was caught #man it just really sucks #he was a good kid #he didnt know what his party was doing #fantasy high spoilers #fhjy spoilers #fhjy
