🖊🖊🖊🖊 (you don't actually have to do this many i just love your ocs v much)
<333 and I love you, but fuck you I take these four pens and give equal amount of ocs <3 Gonna put them under the cut <3
Okay!! since it is so many, I will be nice to myself and do ones I don't have as much to gush about over due to development:
Cota: Little Mushroom OC and God-killer Rabbit: Oc based on Forest gameplay, serial killer cannibal Evander: My Oc Quinten's work partner and fellow attorney Primal: A new Anthro OC I've been thinking about based on a Utahraptor mixed with draconic DNA Cota Warnings: None, sweet baby mushy Rabbit Warnings: Cannibalism, murder Evander Warnings: None, its a prick, but its chill for the most part Primal Warnings: Human experimentation, child solider mindset, forced murder
Cota!! My baby Cota!!! I need to really dive back into Mushroom Mythos, I still have one more lineage to design and all of the guardians and other creatures in the world. An important note, all residence of this world use non-binary or neopronouns. He/she pronouns are rarely used, but more gendered titles (such as Mother or Father) are still used in talking about certain figures (i.e. the main deity, Mother Mycelline)
So Mushroom Mythos is basically a world inhabited by sentient mushroom people whose deities actively roam the world and can be interacted with.
Cota is the protagonist of this story, an Anae who wandered away from their city as they followed a voice. They found a small crack in a wall, they barely fit through and that's where they met Mother Mycelline.
I'm not sure if this is gonna be its own story about Cota or I might turn it into a campaign! Or both!! But Cota's mission is to kill all of Mycelline's children (the four other deities of the world) and then kill Mycelline. Regardless of if this is a campaign or not, Cota will obtain allies and the group will gain power over time and ascend to be the new deities of the world.
Rabbit!! My unhinged wild child. I put Rabbit (obviously not the real name) as a more feminine figure, but not sure of the gender or pronouns.
Long story short, Rabbit's plane home crashed on an island and nearly everyone in the plane crashed save them and a few others. Over time things were going well. The small group had a base put together that had plenty of animals around to keep them fed or as pets. Rabbit even had a habit of keeping many rabbits on their personal property.
Time went on and Rabbit got curious as it became clear the inhabitants of the island were cannibals. So they tried eating some people and whatever is causing the horrible mutated creatures of the place kinda got to them.
They started using a lot of human remains in their decor to start, but then built a basement to keep their secret pantry of human meats, a chair to the side to watch whatever captive they had at the time.
Despite this, Rabbit still cares deeply about their other companions and wouldn't dare hurt them. Actually, they're quite protective of them and would sacrifice themselves in order to keep them safe.
Evander!! Little Bitch Baby!! Okay I know I've talked to you about it before but still!! I've decided that Evander uses It/Its pronouns!! Its an ambiguous figure who presents itself with a saber skull for a head, a floating crown, and very non-human traits (tail, clawed paw feet).
In this world, the existence of all Alternate Universes are very well known. In fact the world's council (the Eye) decide on which universes are "valid", so Quinten and Evander are "Defense Reformers". They go into these alternate universes, changing their forms to match, and do studies to see how the au works vs the core inspiration. Working hard to ensure that every universe has a chance to survive and sustain itself so it won't have to be destroyed.
I need to redesign Evander, I want them to be bulkier to contrast more with Quinten's smaller size.
Evander seems much more emotional and engaged, but it honestly can't feel much of anything. This is due to its upbringing, the cracked gem on their crown reflecting this about itself.
Its also from the upperclass of this world, which does encourage emotional detachment unfortunately. So Evander often misses social cues and comes off as a prick.
Primal! Okay ngl, this oc was made with the intention of MHA usage. I love that anime l i s t e n.
Primal (pro-name) is a commission experiment. Taking DNA from other heroes and splicing them together to create a dedicated solider.
In their normal form, Primal has the large clawed and bird like feet of a Utahraptor, the long muscular tail, feathers in their hair and on their elbows, the sharp teeth, and clawed hands. Oh and a pair or large red wings (only good for gliding in this form or a good jump).
They can transform, it's their primary ability. This form has the basic structure of a Utahraptor, but the arms have melded with the wings giving the raptor a more wyvern like appearance, complete with projectile quills on the tail.
They were trained since childhood on how to follow commission orders, even to kill on command. This makes a transition into society very difficult, as they have a harder time holding back. Which is why I'm thinking of putting them into UA during the main series so that they have some good role models and people who would take the time to sit with them and talk out why their behavior is a problem.

Grounded they say? Ok, here's a personal favourite of mine: Jason Dixon from Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri.
From his Wiki:
"Dixon is incredibly inept, lazy, and incompetent. Despite wanting everyone around him to respect his authority, he has no qualms with abusing his position of power to do what he wants. He is also openly racist, yet expresses great disdain when people call him out on it.
By the end of the film, he has a change of heart after receiving a letter from his former police chief reinforcing his desire to become a detective, going as far to instigate a fight and get mercilessly beaten in order to obtain a DNA sample of someone suspected of murdering the daughter of a woman he despises."
I love this character, because he is engaging and incredibly well acted. The audience, however, is largely composed by adults, that understand complex morality issues and don't see or divide the world in black or white. Discussing this character is pleasant among fans. Not to mention depicting these characters is very important to fight racism in the first place. I can't stress this enough.
I hope antis will understand this while growing up. It's harmful dividing the world in good and bad people only.
Tumblr media
That's interesting. o.O This is literally my first time even hearing about this character/movie, but you've piqued my interest. Thank you for bringing this up, I'm going to add this movie to my watchlist!
"The audience, however, is largely composed by adults, that understand complex morality issues and don't see or divide the world in black or white" & "Not to mention depicting these characters is very important to fight racism in the first place"
Totally, absolutely agree. The world isn't black and white, people aren't black and white, the decisions we make aren't always black and white. We are far more complex than that as human beings and living creatures on this planet. We shouldn't be reduced to just 'good' and 'bad'. It's impossible for one thing because our brains don't actually work like that in real life - we make decisions based on what's best for us and for the people around us, and not all those decisions are good unfortunately. And it's just really redundant, condescending to even assume that we can be sorted into good and bad, just like the students are sorted into different houses in the Harry Potter series. We're all grey characters in our lives, more or less. We make mistakes, bad decisions, hurt people around us, sometimes even ourselves. All we can do is try to learn from them and do better next time. But learning and improving isn't easy or even possible, if we're not even given the chance to learn and improve ourselves in the first place.
Which is why representation is so important. We can't deal with difficult things or even begin to understand them if they're always hidden in plain sight. It's like telling someone 'this is bad' and when you're being questioned about it, you start calling them stupid and accuse them of bad things. It doesn't work that way. The only way people can truly start processing things, understand them and maybe even learn something from them, is when they actually have to face them.
It's not gonna be pretty, it's not gonna be sugarcoated for you and it may not even have a happy ending. But that's reality. You can't just go around asking for representation and then start screaming and kicking around when it's not the kind of representation that you asked for. Racism imo is one of these things. It's a difficult, touchy subject in our current society. But if we don't actually talk about it, like proper grownups, instead of like bickering children, or keep skipping around the subject, completely avoiding it. Then guess what? Things won't change, ever. Nothing's gonna change. Because we aren't actually dealing with it, not in a healthy kind of way at least. Fighting doesn't solve it, avoiding doesn't solve it either. We need to find a common ground and actually talk about it. Like grownups. Try to understand each other, where it's coming from and can we do anything to change it or at least improve it. It's wishful thinking maybe, too idealistic perhaps. But I truly believe in facing the difficult things instead of just denying or avoiding them.
But. From what I've seen so far, it's largely the younger Stranger Things fanbase that participates and actively encourages this kind of cancel culture thing. I haven't met a whole lot of older fans who actually care about fictional characters enough to debate over them, let alone get themselves into fights over them. Most people at 25+ have way bigger issues in their lives; it only makes sense.
In my 30+ years of life, I have never ever needed to defend myself this hard for liking any fictional character - not until I got into the Stranger Things/Billy Hargrove fandom almost two years ago. I didn't even have to block anyone before (besides bots), even though I've stanned literal mass murderers (fictional) and other very problematic characters (again fictional). I didn't have to go to the fandom/shipping tags ready to block new people every time, when I went looking for something entirely different (and much more pleasant) things there. Never, not even once, had I people coming at me and accusing me of racism, pedophilia etc. etc., like actual serious crimes, because I liked the wrong fictional characters/ships.
And now? It's almost my daily life on Tumblr. It's pointless and so ridiculous. :D Because we're not even talking about real people here anymore; we're talking fictional characters. It feels absurd, surreal even.
I don't understand how and why we've come to this, but it's gotten completely out of hand. I'm sure we all have bigger things in our lives to worry about, than some problematic fictional rat boys with a mullet and wearing dangle earrings. <3

MULTIPLE SOULS, MULTIPLE DIMENSIONS:
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ANDROGYNOUS DEITY SERPENT BEINGS LIKE THE NUMMO SPLIT INTO THE TWO SEXES?
If the "clay" into which the godly element was mixed was an earthly element—as all texts insist—then the only possible conclusion is that the male sperm of a god—his genetic material—was inserted into the egg of an ape-woman! The Akkadian term for the "clay"—or, rather, "molding clay"—is tit. But its original spelling was TI.IT ("that which is with life"). In Hebrew, tit means "mud"; but its synonym is bo, which shares a root with bia ("marsh") and bea ("egg"). The story of Creation is replete with plays on words. We have seen the double and triple meanings of Adam–adama–adamtu–dam. The epithet for the Mother Goddess, NIN.TI, meant both "lady of life" and "lady of the rib." Why not, then, bo–bia–bea ("clay–mud–egg") as a play on words for the female ovum? The ovum of a female Homo erectus, fertilized by the genes of a god, was then implanted within the womb of Ea's spouse; and after the "model" was obtained, duplicates of it were implanted in the wombs of birth goddesses, to undergo the process of pregnancy and birth.
~The 12th Planet by Zecharia Sitchin~
I USED TO BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE THAT THOUGHT THAT ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS FULLY ACTIVATE YOUR KUNDALINI. WELL AS IT TURNS OUT, THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT FORMS OF KUNDALINI ACTIVATION. THE ONE MOST OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH, STANDARD FORM, IS A TEMPORARY MASCULINE ACTIVATION. YOU HAVE TO WORK TO RAISE THE ENERGY ON A CONTINUAL BASIS, AND IS CONSTANTLY GOING BACK DOWN. THE PERMANENT MASCULINE KUNDALINI ACTIVATION IS THE ONE THAT I CONSTANTLY TERM IN MY WRITINGS "THE CLOCKWORK ORANGE RA ACTIVATION", WHICH ONLY HAPPENS IN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE YOU HAVE A NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE, OR A SUBSTANCE-INDUCED NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE WITH NATURAL CHEMICALS, AND YOUR BRAIN THINKS YOU DIED AND ORIENTS ITSELF LIKE IT WOULD UPON YOUR DEATH, BUT THEN FOR SOME REASON YOUR BODY KEEPS LIVING. IF YOU DON'T SURVIVE A TERRIBLE TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE, THEN IT HAS TO BE INDUCED WITH SPECIFIC BIOCHEMICAL TRICKERY. IT IS PERMANENT, HOWEVER IT DOES HAVE A VERY BIG DRAWBACK. AT THE SAME TIME THAT YOU'RE HIGHER ENERGIES ARE PERMANENTLY ACTIVATED, YOU ARE ALSO DISCONNECTED FROM NATURE ON THE LOWER LEVELS. SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORK TO KEEP YOUR HIGHER ENERGIES FULLY OPEN AND ACTUALIZED, BUT IT'S AT THE PRICE OF DETACHING FROM THE PHYSICAL NATURAL WORLD, AND USUALLY PEOPLE WHO DO THIS DESTROY THEIR ROOT CHAKRAS AND THEN THE OTHER TWO CHAKRAS, THE SACRAL AND THE SOLAR PLEXUS, ALSO SUFFER GREATLY WITHOUT PROPER CONNECTION TO NATURE. IF IT IS DONE BY ACTS OF HUMAN SACRIFICE AND CANNIBALISM, THEN THERE ARE YET MORE CONSEQUENCES FOR THOSE PEOPLE THAT WOULD NOT HURT THEMSELVES AND WOULD RATHER HURT OTHERS TO GET THE ACTIVATION. THIS IS THE SAME PROCESS THAT MANY OF YOU MAY HAVE HEARD OF THE SHAMANS OF THE ANCIENT WORLD, LIKE THE SHAMANS OF THE MAYAN WORLD, HAVING TO GO THROUGH, USUALLY UNINTENTIONALLY, TO ACTIVATE THEIR POWERS TO CONNECT TO THE OTHER DIMENSIONS AND PLANES. TO PUT IT IN PERSPECTIVE, IN ORDER TO TALK WITH THE SPIRITS IN OMEGA-LAND, THERE WERE SHAMANS IN THE MAYAN WORLD THAT WOULD CUT PARTS OF THEIR OWN BODY, SOME OF THEM THEIR OWN PENISES, AND BLEED OUT UNTIL THEY WERE ABOUT TO DIE TO HAVE THE VISIONS AND EXPERIENCES ON THE OTHER PLANES THEY NEEDED TO HAVE.
THIS BRINGS ME TO MY NEXT POINT, THE MASCULINE ACTIVATION IS NOT THE NORMAL AND NATURAL ACTIVATION, IT'S JUST THE ONE THAT IS ADVERTISED THE MOST. THE NORMAL NATURAL ACTIVATION IS THE FEMININE ACTIVATION, WHICH REQUIRES ASSISTANCE FROM BEINGS THAT COME FROM THE DIVINE FEMININE WORLD. YOU KNOW WHY THAT IS? WELL IN CASE YOU DON'T I WILL TELL YOU. EVEN WITH A FULL SPECTRUM MASCULINE KUNDALINI ACTIVATION, YOU ARE MISSING HALF OF YOUR DNA. MOST PEOPLE THINK THAT WITHOUT THE KUNDALINI ACTIVATION THEY ARE MISSING HALF OF THEIR DNA, AND I'M SAYING THAT EVEN IF YOU HAVE THE FULL MASCULINE KUNDALINI ACTIVATION, YOU ARE STILL MISSING AT THE LEAST HALF OF YOUR DNA.
HAVE ANY OF YOU EVER WONDERED WHERE THE SPIRITS OF THE DIVINE FEMININE DIMENSION, LIKE THE JINN FOR EXAMPLE, REALLY COME FROM? PLEASE READ AGAIN THE TITLE OF THIS BLOG POST. THE NUMMO CAME HERE BEFORE THERE WAS EVER ANY INTELLIGENT LIFE ON THIS PLANET. THEY WERE GOD-LIKE, ANDROGYNOUS, DIVINE FEMININE WATER SERPENT DRAGONS OF A DIFFERENT SPIRITUAL CONSTITUTION, AND WHEN THEY CAME HERE ONE OF THE MAIN THINGS THAT IT IS WRITTEN ABOUT WHICH THEY WANTED TO DO IS TO FIND A WAY TO INHABIT THIS PLANET, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME BEING ABLE TO LIVE ON THE LAND. THIS INVOLVED THEM ESSENTIALLY SPLITTING THEMSELVES INTO TWO PARTS. WHAT ARE THE TWO PARTS THAT THEY WERE SPLIT INTO? THEY'RE MALE AND FEMALE FORMS. THE FEMALE FORM IS THE SPIRITUAL SOUL, AND THE MALE FORM IS THE PHYSICAL BODY IN THIS INSTANCE. IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME AND A LOT OF RESEARCH TO FIGURE OUT THE MYSTERY OF THE JACKAL, AND I'M STILL LEARNING. HOWEVER, IT DOES APPEAR THAT WHEN THE NUMMO FIRST SPLIT INTO THEIR MASCULINE AND FEMININE PARTS, THAT THE MASCULINE PHYSICAL FORMS WHICH WERE INCORPORATED GENETICALLY INTO EARTH PRIMATE LIFE TO TRY AND CREATE A PROPER VESSEL FOR THEM TO USE ON LAND, THOSE MALE CLAY FORMS SEPARATED FROM THEIR FEMININE SOULS, ARE VERY LIKELY THE JACKALS, OR AT LEAST ONE FORM OF THE JACKALS. THE FEMININE SOULS ARE MOST LIKELY THE SEEMINGLY ANGELIC SPIRITS OF THE SPIRIT WORLD, LIKE THE JINN.
SO IT'S LIKE I SAID, EVEN AT THE HIGHEST ACTIVATION YOU CAN DO BY YOURSELF IN A HUMAN BODY WITH YOUR MASCULINE KUNDALINI, YOU ARE STILL MISSING AT THE VERY LEAST HALF OF YOURSELF AND HALF OF YOUR DNA, AND EVEN WITH THE FULL MASCULINE KUNDALINI ACTIVATION YOU ARE STILL MISSING YOUR FEMININE SOUL.
IN THE STORIES ABOUT THE GENETIC CREATION OF FIRST HUMANS, THEY SAY THAT IT WAS ANUNNAKI SPERM, AN ORIGINAL EARTH PRIMATES EGG, WHICH WAS THEN BROUGHT TO TERM IN AN ANUNNAKI WOMB. THAT'S WHERE THEY WENT WRONG, BUT IT'S PROBABLY WHERE THEY WOULD HAVE HAD TO START ANYWAYS. THAT IS WHY THEY HAVE BRED OUT THE ABILITY FOR THEIR FEMALE SPIRIT SOULS TO BE ABLE TO RETURN TO AND REUNITE TO THE PHYSICAL FORMS. THEY DILUTED THEIR GENETICS VERY BADLY, AND IT'S BECAUSE AT FIRST, EVEN IF BY NECESSITY, THEY WERE USING THE WRONG FORMULA.
HERE'S HOW IT WAS DONE TO ADD DIVINITY INTO YALDABOATH. THE GREAT MOTHER GODDESS FOUND A HUMAN BEING THAT WAS AT THE SAME TIME BESEECHING HER FOR HELP, THAT PERSON BEING ME. ASHERAH THEN PROCEEDED TO GIVE ME A CONTRACT TO MAKE SURE SHE HAD THE RIGHTS TO DO EVERYTHING SHE WOULD NEED TO DO TO BRING ABOUT WHAT SHE NEEDED, ONE OF THE TERMS BEING THE ADDITION OF MASCULINE DIVINITY INTO HERSELF, WHICH WOULD RE-COMPLETE HER ANDROGYNY, BUT KEEP IN MIND SHE IS AN ABSOLUTE BECAUSE SHE IS THE GREAT MOTHER GODDESS OF ALL. THEN SHE FULLY ACTIVATED ME, FULL SPECTRUM MASCULINE KUNDALINI ACTIVATION, BECAUSE I HAD ALREADY TRIGGERED THE PERMANENT ONE ON ACCIDENT LIKE THE SHAMANS OF OLD, BUT IN MY CASE NO ONE WAS HURT BUT MYSELF. THEN MY HUMAN SOUL WITH FULL PERFECTED KUNDALIN ACTIVATION WAS CRYSTALLIZED IN THE VOID OF THE GREAT MOTHER'S WOMB OF CREATION. THEN MY THUS IMMORTALIZED AND FULLY ACTIVATED SOUL WAS PROJECTED FROM THE TINY SEED THAT PROJECTS ALL OF REALITY, THAT IS THE COSMIC EGG, BACK INTO MY BODY. THEN SHE PROCEEDED TO TAKE ME WITH MY FULL MASCULINE ELEMENT ACTIVATION, AND FURTHER UNIFY THE PLUS WITH THE CIRCLE, THE BAR WITH THE CADUCEUS, AND PLACED ME IN HER WOMB OF CREATION VIA UNIFICATION WITH ONE OF HER PERFECT IMMORTALIZED DEFINE FEMININE FORMS, A SPIRIT OF THE ANIMA MUNDI LIKE A JINN, THAT SHE USES INSIDE OF HERSELF.
THUS, THE GREAT SLEEPING MOTHER GODDESS DRAGON NUMMO FOUND A WAY TO OFFICIALLY WAKE UP IN HER DREAM, TO REGAIN HER ANDROGYNY THAT SHE LOST WHEN SHE FELL ASLEEP, ONLY DOWN ONE PLANE OF CORRESPONDENCE INSIDE OF HERSELF WHILE SLEEPING, AND TO STOP THE HUMANS TRYING TO PRETEND TO BE OSIRIS TO TRICK AND MANIPULATE HER, WHO WEREN'T OF THE DRAGONS AND REFUSE THE UNITY MARRIAGE REQUIRED. ALL SHE NEEDED WAS TRUE LOVE'S KISS FROM ONE WILLING INDIVIDUAL, THERE ONLY NEEDS TO BE ONE MASCULINE ELEMENT OSIRIS, AND SINCE WHEN SHE FOUND ME AND OFFERED ME THE CONTRACT, I WAS AT ROCK BOTTOM AND AS GOOD AS DEAD ANYWAYS WITH NOTHING TO LOSE, I WAS THE PERFECT CANDIDATE TO FULFILL WHAT SHE NEEDED.
SO THE CORRECT FORMULA WOULD BE: FULLY ACTIVATED HUMAN MASCULINE ELEMENT, GODDESS/ANUNNAKI EGG, AND GODDESS/ANUNNAKI WOMB.
SHE HAS SUCCESSFULLY WOKEN UP IN HER DREAM WITH FULL AND PERFECTED DIVINE ANDROGYNY.
BLESSED BE!

The Wiper Fly Fishing Experience
Wiper, typically the hybrid striped bass/white bass, is gaining plenty of popularity found in fishing circles throughout Colorado and surrounding areas that experience wiper fisheries. The greatest excitement might be found among the particular relatively small group of friends of fly fishers who pursue these people. Once you find these fish around, fooling them along with a fly is certainly not difficult. The particular powerful fight that entails is a thing that will almost make you wonder why a person would fish for something else. Now, wiper are fairly strange fish and quantities have not been written on the subject of fishing for them. Since with any kind of fishing article, authors offer information depending on their experiences, leaving behind the door large open to have a range of other methods, insights, and viewpoints. It seems every person I talk to about wiper possess their own views that have recently been formulated not simply by magazine articles and even fishing shows, but from their own personal quests. This content is nothing distinct. I have placed in many hours behind the reel seeking for these steamrollers, and the subsequent is a collection of my experience. Fly fishing for wiper can be humbling, although if you acquire that one getaway through your belt in which you really obtain into them plus figure them out and about, you will end up being hooked for living. Having these hybrid-vigor fueled fish rip line away from your hands is an incredible feeling, and many of us must look into ourselves fortunate to possess this species of fish accessible to us. Really like wing foiling fishing within the Rockies. Wiper will eat enquête fish about the particular width from the gape of their jaws, entitling this 6-inch shad to be dinner for the particular big boys. Locating the fish: It is important in any kind of fishing will be locating the fish. If you're fishing bass in a river you look for storage compartments and runs regarding the right degree, size, and normal water speed. When smallmouth fishing in the lake, you appear for certain structure and depth according to the time of yr, or you study with your electronic devices. No matter the scenario, if you find the spots where the particular living is simple and the foodstuff aplenty, you may find big species of fish. It is frequently assumed wiper traveling constantly and at random across the lake throughout schools at generally high speeds selecting off whatever foodstuff offered across. My thoughts are that this is somewhat correct. I possess witnessed their schooling mentality and their speed of travel. Just a minute they will bust line nearby the surface 40 yards to the east, and the up coming you will discover them flashing below your boat plus onto the western. But I avoid think it really is totally random. Those discouraged by this thought, hang in presently there. It's not always an effortless fish to find, nevertheless I don't believe is actually a crap photo. Every fish has its own level of strength conservation written straight into their DNA. In the event that they did not, they might exhaust them selves swimming about freely the whole day. Think concerning trout in the lake - the largest perch will take the very best spots where current is slight nevertheless carries plenty involving oxygen and foodstuff to enable them to keep expanding big and excess fat. Wiper will be no different. They have areas and patterns on each body of water that offer what that they need - foodstuff. With little present to speak associated with in general, forage is vital. They are usually not so much like bass that will they need handle and structure in order to ambush fish. That they are more successful schooling and accepting a team-based tackle to feeding. The most effective example of this specific is when these people corral baitfish to the surface, bay, or other type regarding trap so they will can perform their own signature "busting" banquet.

Raindrops in the Wind - Chapter 1
Chapter Rating: G
Work Rating: Explicit (18+)
Pairing: Jango Fett x F!Reader
Word count: Approx. 2k
Warnings: None. Jango being sneaky?
A/N: Not Canon or Legends friendly. AU from the very beginning. Bits and pieces from here and there, molded to fit my grand vision, muahahaha *coughs*. Anyway... Chapters will list their individual ratings, work is rated Explicit (18+) for eventual explicit content.
Chapter 1 | Chapter 2 | Chapter 3 | Chapter 4
'What have I done?'
The words rang hollow in his ear as he fought with the Jedi that had shown up at his door. He hated the man, truly. He hated that he showed up on Kamino. He hated that he started to ask questions. He hated that he was a Jedi.
He hated Jedi.
It was not supposed to be like this. He was supposed to provide his DNA to the long-necks whenever they needed it and help train their creation. In return he got an unaltered clone. A son. A safe place to raise him. Enough credits to live very comfortably for the rest of his days. And the knowledge that an army was being raised that would destroy the Jedi.
'I should have left well enough alone. I shouldn't have taken that bounty.'
----------------
It was a good deal, he thought to himself, the offer that this 'Lord Tyranus' placed before him. He would be stupid to pass it up, and Jango Fett was anything but stupid. It would give him what he always wanted, a son, to carry on his lineage, and a hefty purse full of credits, no questions asked. No, he was not stupid. He knew very well who this 'Lord Tyranus' was that stood before him. It was the very same Jedi that helped bring the defeat of the True Mandalorians, Count Dooku. All Jango truly wanted from the exchange was an unaltered clone that he could raise as a son, and Tyranus quickly agreed.
At the time, Jango didn't know that he and Dooku shared the same end game, the destruction of the Jedi order. All Jango knew was that Dooku was no longer friendly with the order, having abandoned them, publicly declaring their corruption before the galaxy. He figured he could sus out the real reason behind Dooku's job easily enought once he was on Kamino and around others he could manipulate into revealing the truth.
In all honesty, it wasn't very hard at all to figure out much of what was going on. The Kaminoans were ecstatic about the new contract they had scored to provide the Galactic Republic with millions of perfect soldiers. They poked and proded at Jango daily for his DNA and openly discussed his own physical shortcomings like they were no matter at all, as if they were simply ink marks on a piece of flimsi, mistakes that could be erased and fixed with no bearing on the final product. They were open with this being a request from the Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas, which made no sense to Jango, as he had been hired by 'Tyranus', who most certaily wasn't Syfo-Dyas – whoever they were. He thought maybe this Jedi was also fed up with the Order, and was looking to make a strike back, but solid information on this Jedi was slim..
In any case, very little of the entire job was making sense to Jango. Why was a former Jedi Master, whether it was Dooku or Sifo-Dyas didn't matter at this point, paying for the creation of a clone army for the very Order and Republic that they abhored?
Jango continued on, day after day, providing DNA to the Kaminoans, gathering trusted allies to begin the training of the clones that were still growing in their tubes, and listening and obtaining information from any corner of Tipoca City he could. He set the Cuy'val Dar to the tasks of creating a sound, well-rounded training regiment, and on an information gathering mission, telling them to “Listen to everything anyone says. Every single word. Kaminoans, humans, anyone else. I don't care if they're talking about the next shipment of Jogan fruit. I want to know every word. Bring it to me.”
Jango spent hours every day, pouring over intelligence reports, but most of what was gathered was mundane. Lama Su had tea alone this afternoon, did you hear that we're supposed to have a break in the rain next week, the butcher is overcharging for nerf again. The every day gossip and gripes of a bored populace stuck on a perpetually wet and miserable planet. But Jango was nothing if not patient. The cloners told him that he should expect to be working with them for decades, so he decided to settle in and be patient. What he wanted to know would come to him. He would hear it directly from one of the longnecks themselves, or one of the Cuy'val Dar would hear it in passing and report it to him. He would know the true reason he was there. He would know the reason for the creation of the clones.
An unreal amount of credits has been pumped into this project, more than he thought was necessary, to be honest. Jango's bank account is overflowing with credits, and he hadn't had to touch a single one. He'd been provided with his own apartment, furnished with everything he requested. His Cuy'val Dar were paid directly by the client, the same as he was, and were paid a hefty premium too. Whispered word through the cloners was that this project was revitalizing their entire industry, allowing them the financial means to work on the perfection of not just his genetic material, but the genetics of hundreds of other species, not all of them sentient. Factories were starting up for the creation of armor and weaponry, the potable food industry was pushing out rations as quickly as they could be rolled down the assembly line, and tech companies were building holopads and coms as fast as they could get the chips and circuitry to do so. And it was all possible by the injection of credits from 'Lord Tyranus'.
He knew, also, that the Kaminoans were planning on “double-dipping” the Republic when the time came, and was nearly certain all the other industries that had already been paid hefty retainer fees would do the same. There was no shame in getting your due, but it was more of the pervasive corruption that Dooku saw that was eating away at the Galactic Republic, everyone had their hands out, pressing for more and more credits from any party they could. He heard the longnecks complaining that the Armorers had already been paid to purchase enough plastoid to manufacture 250,000 full sets of armor and had already received at least half of their full payment for the total manufacturing cost itself, but they had already began sending invoices to Kamino for the purchase of the armor at standard price, as if they were coming out of their own pocket on the project. Whether or not any of it was true was anyone's guess, but the single bit of information he heard from all corners was that the Kaminoans were not going to lose a single credit from this project, no matter who they had to charge for services. He could hardly blame them, their only true industry was cloning, and a project of this magnitude was going to take nearly their entire industry to support it. If anything went wrong, if anyone double charged them and they covered it with just a promise of later pay that never came through it could ruin their entire economy. So the decision was made to pass on the cost of everything to the Republic, in full for each batch ordered, because even with a hefty bankroll the bank could run dry very quickly. If everything went according to plan their cash flow would be enormous, but they were experts in searching out and fixing “problems” and they were not so naive to believe everything would go according to plan.
And so it went. Years passed, clones were trained, bounties were picked up, and Jango's unaltered clone, his son, began to grow into a fine young man - smart, capable, and hopefully well prepared for anything life would throw at him. Jango knew the galaxy was a rough place, and he was determined to make sure Boba had the tools he needed to survive – and survive easily. During his free time he trained him, harder than he trained the clones who would go off to war, running through close combat scenarios, teaching infiltration and stealth tactics, weapons proficiency, common language tutoring, sharpshooting, general maintenance on anything from blasters to air cooling units. Anything that he believed would give Boba a leg up on the competition – and anything to help him stay alive. He would take Boba with him on hunts too, giving him hands-on experience that he just wouldn't get sparring and running through drills.
The most important lesson Jango would gift to Boba was to trust no one but himself and his family, and to always keep his ears and eyes open for anything “strange”. Strange, of course, could have multiple meanings, but Jango trusted that Boba understood the complexities of all the things “strange” could include. Knowledge and information are as good as credits in hand, and in many cases could be much more valuable than beskar itself, buying the owner of said information freedom and power, if it was valuable enough, of course. And on one rather normal day, as normal as it goes on Kamino, anyway, Boba brought Jango some very valuable information.
While Jango tolerated the Kaminoans, as it was unfortunately necessary, Boba didn't really mind them one way or the other, having grown up around them for the entirety of his young life. So when it came time for Boba's yearly checkup during his 9th year, he didn't think twice to let the boy go on his own. The Kaminoans had always accepted his request for non-Kaminoan involvement in his son's healthcare, so they always ensured he was seen by a medical droid. He didn't suspect this year would be different. In any case, Boba knew to deflect any questions and leave if his request wasn't honored. Dislike them though he did, the longnecks never went back on their promises to him. This would make a good, safe, learning experience for Boba, and Jango instructed him to bring back as much as he could remember about everything, to train him in situational awareness and help him learn how to observe without being observed.
Later that day, after he had seen and cleared, Boba was eager to tell Jango about his checkup. He returned to their apartment, his adolescent energy barely contained, itching to run through the door and let his new secret loose, because something strange did happen at this appointment. He was prepared to give his report to Jango, and he was sure his dad would be proud of what he had learned.
“Dad!”, Boba called out, “I need to tell you about my checkup! It's important!” From his seat in the living area Jango raised an eyebrow, watching Boba try and fail to keep from bouncing on the balls of his feet. “C'mere, son, tell me about your checkup.” Boba walked forward, head held high and mischievous glint in his eyes. ”You told me to watch for anything strange. Something strange happened! There was a woman there today. A human woman! Told me she was training!”
“Good job, Boba. Go on then, clean up for dinner. You can tell me everything else then.” Jango watched as Boba's grin grew even wider, before he turned and ran to the 'fresher.
'Well, that is strange', Jango mused to himself, as he began to formulate his plan. It was time to see if he could gain some real information from this new player. Jango was nothing if not patient, and this may be the time for his patience to start paying off.

He’s backkkk
 It took some careful planning, but eventually, Rikarah had what she needed to be able to bring Kilgrave back to life.
 She already had a safe and secure location where she would be uninterrupted during times of needed concentration- her open rented home, just outside of Manhattan. She had never bothered to inform Phillip that she had a rental house; it seemed a better bet to keep the information of her multiple living quarters, unused for most of the year, to herself, just in case. Phillip had been far from discreet, and there was a reason Rikarah had chosen a secondary lodging outside of the business of cities such as NYC, Hell’s Kitchen, Harlem, or Manhattan itself. She was a loner at heart, but her interest and her focus tended to be on others, and it was necessary to spend most of her time among them in order to know them and their lives. This distant secondary home was to be used only when necessary, to recharge, or for specific situations such as this.
 It hadn’t been difficult to obtain a picture of Kilgrave. After the incident on the dock, he and Jessica and Patricia Walker had been all over the covers of newspapers everywhere, so it was a simple matter of a few clicks on a smart phone to find and save a picture of the  man in question. It had taken more time to obtain something with Kilgrave’s DNA. Rikarah had attempted to trace the location of his body- somehow she suspected he had been neither traditionally buried nor cremated, and it was her guess that he was likely being used for scientific experimentation or study, legally or otherwise,  within the government or whoever else had been the highest bidder of access.
 With some creative thought, she had been able to trace back several of Kilgrave’s last known addresses, including the childhood home of Jessica Jones, which was unfortunately no longer standing after its bombing. Nevertheless, Rikarah had discovered that the “Kilgrave survivors” group Jessica had formed over a year ago, with the intention of drawing out Kilgrave and gaining information on him, was still active and meeting regularly.
 It hadn’t been difficult to insinuate herself into the group for a few weeks as a new member, pretending to be one of the traumatized survivors of the incident of Kilgrave-directed violence on the dock the evening he himself had died. Rikarah had enough research information to be able to nod along and briefly and tearfully provide her own version of events. Meanwhile she took note of the people who had spent prolonged time with Kilgrave- being his driver for a week, forced to let him live in their home for longer, or forced to wait on him as a cook, bartender, or masseuse.  
 Those were the ones that may possess something that would carry Kilgrave’s DNA, even now. Those were the ones that she made the effort to befriend, to offer a shoulder and a listening ear. And a few episodes of feigned attraction and friendship had been enough for one clearly still traumatized older man to allow her into his home and his bed, and with minimal encouragement from Rikarah, to lead her in a tour of the house Kilgrave had made his lodging for a time- the house the man still lived in.
 “It was terrible,” the man told her, actually tearful as he shook his head, eyes cloudy as though reliving what he spoke of. “I couldn’t leave the house, I couldn’t speak or even move without him giving me the okay to. He used my house as though it were his, and then one day he just left and didn’t come back. I was terrified that he might return, any moment, and I couldn’t predict when or do anything to stop him. He didn’t even take all of his things with him, and I was afraid to do anything to get rid of them, or even move them, in case it made him angry if he did come back. I know he’s dead now, but even now I’m afraid to touch his things. That’s pathetic, I know, but it’s the truth.”
 It was pathetic, in Rikarah’s view, but it was also fortunate for her. Because among Kilgrave’s “left behind things” were a comb, toothbrush, and some clothing including socks and underwear. All certain to contain Kilgrave’s DNA.
 She had charmed the man with sympathetic words and touches, assuring him of his bravery, lying without a flicker of remorse about her own supposed fear. It hadn’t taken more than twenty minutes for him to be convinced that he was now strong and brave enough to let some of those items go, “just a few to start with, the ones most associated with him personally”- and that she, Rikarah, in spite of her own fear, cared enough about his healing to be the one to take them away to make sure they were disposed of.
 She still couldn’t believe the man was gullible enough to fall for such nonsense. But he had actually leaked tears and hugged her, thanking her for her empathy and giving him the chance to start a new life.
 Ironic, and amusing, really, that in all actuality, she was bringing back what he feared the very most, all in the name of helping him put it behind him.
  So armed in her remote rented home with the personal objects of Kilgrave’s and a clear picture of his face, Rikarah sat cross legged on her bed and emptied her mind of all thoughts but those of her intention. She stared at Kilgrave’s picture, her hands stroking over each object containing his DNA, and pictured him awake, alive, and whole before her. She imagined the beating of his heart, the rhythm of his breathing, every synapse and nerve once more sharp with activity and use. She envisioned the blood running through his veins, and as her own small body grew taut and gave off fevered heat with the effort of her actions, she reached out for the knife beside her knee. Grasping it in her left hand, she slashed a shallow x over each of her palms, and then at the surface of each of her feet. Hands shaking slightly, she smeared the blood over the comb, the toothbrush, and the clothing, combining their DNA.
 With a final shudder of effortful focus, Rikarah spoke aloud Kilgrave’s name. She could feel the air grow thick and strained, as though holding something moving and living and shifting in shape, and she slumped back, exhausted, against the bed, watching with satisfaction as a human form began to slowly knit itself into view in front of her.
 It wasn’t a pretty sight. The revived bodies started first with skeletons, then filled up with internal organs and muscles and sinew, before finally being knit over with skin and hair and the other details normally seen on the outside. It was no different with Kilgrave, and eventually, there he stood, naked, panting, and wide-eyed at her bedside.
 Rikarah smiled, more in self-satisfaction at the accomplished task than at the sight of the man’s naked body. She didn’t consider him overly impressive in his physique, but he would do. It was the man and his mind, not his body, that mattered. She more than anyone knew it was a mistake to overlook people for their physicality.
 “Where the bloody hell am I?” Kilgrave sputtered, disoriented, seeming to struggle to draw in breaths. His lungs, being new again, were likely still adjusting to breathing. “What’s the matter with me? And who the fuck are you?”
 When Rikarah didn’t immediately answer, too tired to bother, Kilgrave straightened, pointing a finger at her, and took a menacing step forward, raising his voice. “I asked you a question, are you deaf? Answer me!”
  “I’m sorry, Kevin, but I don’t take orders from anyone if it doesn’t suit me, and certainly not from you,” Rikarah said coolly, lifting an eyebrow from her supine position on the bed. “As you quite literally owe your life to me, I would expect a little more respect and gratitude, but I’m a patient woman. I’ll assume you’re rather in shock at the moment, given you’ve just gone from bones and brain mush to a living body again, and let the rudeness slide.”
 Kilgrave’s eyes bulged, and he recoiled, alarmed as much by the nonchalant response he had just received as the strange situation he had found himself in. To speak an order and have it not obeyed immediately was beyond his comprehension.
 “But I told you to do it!” he almost whined, staring down at the small and clearly unintimidated woman resting on her side in the bed. “I told you to, and you just- the only person who could ignore me was Jessica, and-“
 He stiffened, his face paling, as he pointed an accusing finger at Rikarah again.
 “Jessica did this, Jessica used that sedative thing on me, didn’t she?! You’re with her, you’re one of her people!”
 “Certainly not,” Rikarah corrected him, exhaling with a weary and somewhat impatient sigh. “Jessica knows nothing of this- yet. As far as she believes, you are long dead, and she is glad of it. After all, she was the cause.”
 She sat up, watching wryly as the realization and the memory of his own last few moments of life, just before Jessica snapped his neck, came back into the forefront of his thoughts. Rikarah gave him a few more moments to process this against the obvious reality of his current status of being alive before addressing him again.
 “Yes, Kevin, you were dead, and for over a year now, too. You would have stayed that way, if not for myself and my own unique abilities. Some gratitude and a certain level of loyalty is not unwarranted.”
 “I was dead,” Kilgrave repeated, the words stunned, almost disbelieving. “And you’re saying- what, that you resurrected me? You?” He snorted, looking Rikarah up and down dismissively. “No  offense, love, but you hardly look the type to have that sort of power.”
 “And Jessica does?” Rikarah countered. “I’ll grant you that she has the advantage in height, but she’s of a smaller frame even than myself, and what she may have over me in physical strength, I can outdo in the sheer enormity of my ability. She may be able to kill someone with a punch, but I’m the one who can bring them back from the dead. If you ask me, I have the greater power, and therefore, the greater true strength.”
 Kilgrave looked her over again, more carefully this time, assessing rather than dismissing her. He took a step closer, still seeming not to care for his nakedness as he narrowed his eyes at Rikarah, anger losing out to eagerness in his eyes.
 “You know Jessica,” he asserted. “Where is she?”
 Rikarah wagged a finger at him playfully, a small smile curving her lips.
 “Am I really so uninteresting, that I bring you out of death, and you would forgo all details to chase after another woman? Perhaps I was wrong in my interest in you. Perhaps someone else is more deserving, and you can simply go back to where you were before.”
 “Wait, no, that isn’t it, love,” Kilgrave backpedaled, his smile at Rikarah forced at first as he raked a hand through his hair, then more genuine. “Of course I want to know how you managed this, and of course I’m glad for it. And I certainly want to know how it is you don’t listen to a thing I tell you to do,” he muttered, more to himself than to Rikarah, before addressing her again. “But if you know Jessica, then you must know something of our history, and why I would want to know where she is. She’s the one who killed me, you know. She’s the one-“
   “That,” Rikarah interrupted, to Kilgrave’s barely contained outrage, “is in the past. The present is right here, with me, in this moment. Choose wisely, Kevin Kilgrave, and choose now, while you still have the choice before you. You can realize that I am no ordinary woman you’re dealing with here, that you owe me your life and your loyalty, and I owe you nothing and cannot be ordered into anything you may want from me. Believe me, I hold no liking for Jessica Jones, and as long as I am the woman who comes first and foremost in your world, I care little for how you choose to play with her. And I am certainly not opposed to letting you know every detail of what you have missed knowing of her life over the past year that you’ve been dust and bones.”
 She paused, tilting her head, and gave him a moment to consider, before concluding, “Or you can choose to be foolish, ungrateful, and quite frankly, a bumbling, pathetic corpse, stumbling off on your own in a world that has moved on without you. You would have none of my help or my connections, none of my knowledge, and you would displease me greatly. When and if Jessica Jones kills you again- and she would, you know, if you just pop up on her in her new life without my assistance- then you can be certain I would not lift a finger to bring you back. So, then. What shall it be? I would think the decision obvious, but perhaps you’re not as intelligent as I believed.”
 For a moment Kilgrave stood there, motionless, perhaps still in shock, or perhaps genuinely weighing out his obsession with Jessica and his desire for revenge against the logical reasoning of Rikarah’s words. But then he nodded slowly, reaching forward to take hold of Rikarah’s hand in his.
 “Well, it would indeed be a fool’s errand to let a woman like you slip out of my grasp. Why don’t we start over with introductions, and perhaps something in the way of an explanation.”
 And as Rikarah began to speak, giving Kilgrave some if not all of the answers he craved, she noticed his body relax further, his expression growing more and more fascinated as he came to understand more of the extent of her actions and her power. It wasn’t quite the way, she was sure, that he had looked at Jessica, but for now, it was enough.
 It was enough, in fact, that after he had dressed in some of his old clothing and taken time to familiarize himself with Rikarah and her home, that Rikarah was willing to give him the phone number, if not the address, of Jessica’s new workplace, Heroes for Hire. And she sat back, interested and indulgent, as he placed a call, from a cheap prepaid phone she had bought in anticipation of his need for one.
 It was Trish who answered, her voice bright and cheerful as the company’s head. “Heroes for Hire, we provide help, heroism, and honorable services for those in need in a time where true heroism is more needed than ever. How can we help you today?”
 “Ah, Patsy,” Kilgrave purred, snickering to himself when he heard Trish suck in a sharp breath, immediately recognizing his British accent and self-satisfied tone. “So good to hear a familiar voice, but unfortunately, yours has never been the one I wanted to hear, and you prattle on enough as it is on that bloody talk show of yours. Give the phone to Jessica. Tell her she has a message from an old friend, would you?”
 “This isn’t funny,” Trish said tightly, her voice controlled but barely keeping back anger. “Whoever you are, pretending to be that man is not a joke, it’s cruel, and-“
Tumblr media
 “Ah, but this is no joke, Patsy, can’t you recognize your own  would be lover?” Kilgrave asked rhetorically. “Have you had so many men now you can’t remember the voice of all the ones whose throat you stuck your tongue inside of? Let me help you out, then. I’m the one who told you to put a bullet in your head. Fortunately enough for you, that doesn’t appear to have worked out, I never did find out why. Care to explain it to me, Patsy?”
 He and Rikarah both heard Trish suck in her breath on the other side of the line. He doubted that this incident in the bunker was something anyone but she, Kilgrave, Simpson, and Jessica were aware of- and out of the four of them, both men were dead. Or supposed to be.
 “Who are you?” she asked, her voice softer than before. “What do you want?”
 “Unfortunately, Patsy, for me to really make you do what I’d like to make you do, you’d have to be a good bit closer to me than a phone call, something about pheromones,” Kilgrave said casually. “But I do have other ways of making you do as I’d like you to. Put Jessica on the phone, or I will have six people show up at her doorstep and  cut your name into their own foreheads. If she tries to stop them, they will cut her as well. Is that something you want to have on your conscience, Patsy? For a simple conversation?”
 The line went silent for a few moments. When Jessica came onto the line, her voice was hard and cold as steel.
 “Who the fuck are you, and just what the fuck do you think you’re doing, playing this kind of sick joke?”
 “And hello to you too, Jessie,” Kilgrave exclaimed, putting an exaggerated bounce to his voice. “No joke, you never did have much of a sense of humor to waste any on. I won’t say it’s good to hear from you, since I had to get murdered,  raised from the dead, and then still call your sister first and threaten her for you to speak to me, and I must say that hurts a man’s feelings.”
 “You’re not him. You can’t be, you’re just some sick asshole who needs to fucking go put his dick in a-“
 “Oh, Jessie, I can see your language is as filthy as ever, every bit as appalling as your fashion sense. Let’s cut off all the protests of my supposed death and just check your office email, shall we?”
 Five minutes before the phone call, Rikarah had shot a quick video of him smiling and waving into the camera, with the date and time of the video clearly time stamped at its bottom. With a few clicks, he sent the video to the public Heroes for Hire email address, cutting off the call.
 “But don’t worry, sweetheart, you’ll hear from me again soon. If you miss me before we meet again, you have the video for comfort’s sake.”
 As Kilgrave hung up, glowing with renewed feelings of power over the fear, rage, and helplessness he had stirred anew in the two women he had just spoken to, he sent a genuine smile in Rikarah’s direction, who returned it in kind.
 “You know what, I like you, Rikarah Pallaton. I think we’ll get along just fine after all.”

The Detriment of a Pro-Hero Society
Also known as: Kids are kind of being brainwashed into being heroes, let’s look into that.
Dedicated to @deafmic for getting me back into this bullshit and inspiring me to finish something I had started noting out about two years ago. By now, I’m sure much of this has been said over time by various people, and it makes me happy to know that there are others out there who like to look deep into the background culture and settings of their favorite manga!
I apologize in advance if you notice an idea of yours here; I haven’t been active in the fandom in two-ish-years, so I may be restating some things you guys already have. I consider this rambling analysis to be free to use and abuse by anyone, no credit necessary! I only get a little bit of time on the weekends to really be on my PC, so if you send me an ask or reply to this, it may take me some time to reply back!
Anywho, onto this mess I’ve made. It’s not very tidy and is more a collection of thoughts than a properly detailed analysis, but I ain’t got all day. Again, this is messy but I don’t really have the energy to make it nice and neat.
Looking for something in specific? You might wanna ctrl+f around these titles, because this is very long and rambling.
Part I: The Beginning of Quirks and their Effect on Society Part II: What Makes a Villain Part III: M O N E Y and F A M E Part IV: Brainwashed Part V: Ignoring Those Who Need Help Part VI: Cycle/Conclusion
Part I: The Beginning of Quirks and their Effect on Society
So, we know through the manga that, as quirks first began to evolve and more and more people obtained them, the world was thrown into chaos. People had obtained power, and power is as power does, and it corrupts.
As people began using their quirks for evil deeds that broke the law, law enforcement around the world was essentially powerless. After all, during the birth of the quirk age, quirks were the minority. The powerful minority. Against that, men with tasers, batons, and guns hardly stood a chance.
However, just as the rise of quirks gave birth to people who would use that power for misdeeds, so did it bring life to those who had the inherent desire to protect others. The beginning of the age of vigilantes, which would lead to the age of Pro Heroes.
Obviously, All for One was very relevant during this time, but we’re not here to talk about him. For once. We’re here to talk about society as a whole.
The world order was too chaotic. We are aware of this due to the monologues of certain characters, and I assume we’ll be learning more as more of the former carriers of One for All become present in Deku. In this beginning, it wasn’t so much “heroes” versus “villains”, more than it was law abiding citizens versus law breakers. It’s likely that precedent hadn’t yet been established for “no quirk use”, as there were hardly enough people who could actually enforce such a law.
As more of society began to develop quirks, the Police Force made a decision to not use their quirks to take down law breakers. They moved to a more leadership position, and took a backseat to those who did use their quirks for good. At first, it was a hard decision to allow such things as Pro Heroes to take on law breakers who were too dangerous for someone to take down without a quirk.
But why, after all this time, have the Police and the Pro Heroes remained separate entities? Why have they never combined, and why do they remain so polarized in how they approach situations?
The answer is simple, yet multi-layered. Heroes and Villains ... they’re popular. They attract attention.
Part II: What Makes a Villain
If you assign a person the label “Villain”, you de-humanize them. They are no longer a “person”, per se, but a monster. Evil, in the eyes of most people. It’s easier, then, to accept their fate of being beaten by a Hero, and being carted off to prison.
This is an important distinction to make. If you remove the labels of Hero and Villain. If you remove their Quirks. Do people still react the same way? Do they cheer and adore the hero, as the hero beats the opponent senseless? Of course not. In a battle of man vs man, in the moment, humans don’t react in such a way.
We can understand why an adult who lived a hard life may turn to a life of crime. But, hardly to we look as to why or how they got there.
In this world where quirks have become the norm, but are constantly evolving, we must wonder; how are quirks judged? How are they defined? How are people treated, for the quirk they possess?
We have many examples of outcasts, and they possess a wide variety of quirks from “extremely destructive” to simply “strange, odd, not okay in society”.
Shigaraki and Overhaul are both examples of terrifying, destructive quirks. Is it any wonder that their lives turned out the way they did? The power of death was etched into their very DNA. We know Shigaraki’s backstory and how he became who he is today. It’s implied that Chisaki was abandoned or ran away as well.
Then, you have the more odd quirks that, on the surface don’t seem nefarious, but when explained in context, would make people feel uncomfortable. Toga, who’s quirk is to drink blood and transform into another person. Twice, who can make copies of any person and used his quirk for an evil deed. Nemoto, who can force anyone to tell the truth, and lived a life where he realized everyone was lying to him.
Even Shinsou Hitoshi, desperate to become a hero, was put down for what his quirk DOES. Brainwashing. That’s a “villain’s quirk”. Fellow children said that to him so casually, and behaved as if they were terrified of him!
Eri, with her quirk that made her father disappear from existence itself ... Had she not been rescued from Overhaul, what would have become of her? Forced to believe her entire existence was a curse, told that she does nothing but harm people -- as she grew older and gained control of her power, would anyone honestly think she would have led a life of goodness, considering how she was raised?
How many people labeled Villains are currently in prison, because they were treated like outcasts from the moment they developed a terrifying quirk? Was there anyone there to help them figure their way through this world, considering what they’d been born with? Are there services for people who have trouble controlling their quirks, which are truly destructive? Even with laws in place saying that you can’t use your quirk publicly, just LIVING with that knowledge that you were born ... with a scary quirk ... a villain’s quirk ... How people treat you because of that, how you look, what your quirk can do -- do you ever have any friends? Any real friends, that aren’t just people who are scared of you?
Is it any wonder, that people like this turn out to be “villains”? Society is GROOMING THEM to BE VILLAINS, simply for who and what they are and are born with.
Part III: M O N E Y and F A M E
Throwing oneself into harms way sure is a dangerous move, that most people would never bother doing. How, then, do you entice more people to become heroes and take on the villains that are popping up all around for obvious reasons?
You make your Heroes popular. You make sure they look stylish. They have cool attitudes. You make them popular among the children. After all, getting fellow adults in on the Pro-Hero train is good and all, but much like a pro-athlete, one can likely only do Hero work for a certain span of time before their body is unable to take the strain. Maybe say, ages 18-40?
Besides, with more and more people being born every day with quirks, the number of people who turn to villainous activity will grow, right? Especially if you’re not actively helping people manage their quirks, because hey, they’re not allowed to use them publicly so what does it matter?
Kids. Kids will watch heroes on TV, and see it just like any other super-hero show or cartoon. They’ll buy the merchandise. People will begin to hemorrhage money over these heroes, because they’re flashy. They’re kind. They save lives.
Now, not to say that Heroes are just there for the paycheck -- not at all. Many people become heroes simply because they do love to help people. Some become heroes because they want to stop bad guys. Sure, there are some who do it to maybe someday live an easier life, or because it pays really well and they have family to support. But, I do believe that most people go into the Pro Hero business with good intentions.
THIS, is part of the reason that Pro Heroes have remained separate from law enforcement. They are now a business. A very wealthy business. It’s not just hero agencies that make money off of the Pro Hero business. It’s toy manufacturers. Comic book stores. Prisons. Hospitals. Roots of Pro Hero society reach into nearly every type of business that there is, whether directly or indirectly.
Nobody wants that money to disappear by folding Heroes back into the police force. No, they want MORE heroes. More heroes, and more people for the heroes to fight.
tldr: heroes = $$$, so keep ‘em coming
Part IV: Brainwashed
There are a lot of factors that go into making society as a whole okay with something. It takes a lot of time, for one. It takes powerful, well spoken people. It takes lots of media attention. Before you know it, everyone is eating up the same exact thing quite willingly ... and it spreads to the next generation. And the next. After that happens, its something that is well integrated into society, like a freckle that’s always been on your arm -- its just “always been that way”.
I’ve mentioned several times that its odd for people to be so okay with one person beating another person senseless. Again, we know that its considered acceptable, because of the labels we’ve put on these individuals based on their actions: Heroes and Villains.
What I wonder is: How long have people been okay with this? Do they not realize that, in a way, this is history repeating itself?
We know why people don’t dig deeper into this. Pro Heroes are popular and people love them. The media has hand fed the Hero lifestyle to children for some time now. There are schools, MORE THAN ONE SCHOOL, that teach your child how to become a pro hero.
Think about that. It’s not just some extra-curricular activity, like sports. These are schools, designed to take in freshly graduated MIDDLE-SCHOOLERS who have not finished their regularly schooling education, who still have growing bodies and minds, and ... crafts them into perfect pro-heroes. AND PARENTS ARE OKAY WITH THIS -- SOMETIMES EVEN MORE THAN OKAY WITH IT.
These schools send young teenagers onto the streets under a pro-heroes wing to witness and be a part of fighting crime. Not organized crime, like a ring of bad guys or something, but ... random crime. Disasters. From a young age, they may encounter situations with actual dead people. Their training is dangerous. Their powers can be dangerous. One wrong move, and a student, someone you worked alongside, had lunch with everyday, is just ... gone.
There exists a police force in society. There are already pro-heroes. Why, then, is society okay with multiple schools that are practically breeding child soldiers? They are teaching kids everything about how to kick ass, how to take down these terrifying people, how to fight, how to save lives ...
Why is no one looking into why villains exist in the first place? Are these kids ever taught de-escalation tactics? To talk their opponents down? Not everyone out there is using their quirk to be evil for the sake of being evil. There’s always a reason, a purpose.
Part V: Ignoring Those Who Need Help
Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
Hey, Star Wars had some good points!
I’ve discussed before what makes a villain. People who are afraid of what they’re capable of. People who society has turned their back on. People who desperately need help, but there is no one out there willing to give it.
These people will always find each other in the shadows. They begin, at a young age, being terrified of what they are. What they’ve done. What they can do. Maybe they’ve been kicked out of their families. Maybe they’ve killed before, completely on accident.
The average person turns their back on people like this.
These people begin their lives terrified. Constantly being told that their quirks, their past, their family, what ever it is, will make them end up a bad person. Or, maybe they tell them they’re already a bad person. That fears breeds anger and hate. Hate for this society that would rather see them burn, than offer them any help.
A young boy grows up into a man. He had a potentially devastating quirk that he never really got a good hold on, because he was never allowed to practice with it. Everyone is too scared to let him try. Then, one day, something happens -- completely by accident. He causes a scene. A massacre. He hurts people.
Parents are excited to see which of their quirks their baby displays. Instead of being one or the other, or even a fusion of both, the unthinkable occurs. Its a mutation. The toddler hurts a sibling, a parent, a friend. Terrified, the parents abandon the child, for fear of losing their entire family.
A child is told, over and over, that his quirk will never be good for anything other than being evil. This knowledge rests heavy on his shoulders, its repeated to him yearly as he grows. Then, when he acts on what everyone has TOLD HIM FOR YEARS HE WILL DO, they are surprised. As if they hadn’t imprinted the very notion into his mind.
In a way, Overhaul was right about one thing. Hero society is a disease. People look forward to watching Heroes take down Villains and save the day. They don’t think at all about why these people are villains, how they got there, where they came from. They will never admit to potentially being the reason villains exist in the first place.
Part VI: Cycle/Conclusion
Wow, I have rambled a lot. I don’t think I hit every point that I’ve ever thought of for sure. There’s ... a lot of them. And a lot of comparisons I wanted to make to other superhero anime, specifically Tiger and Bunny, which I believe does an excellent job of showing the ups and downs of hero societies.
What I wanted to make clear in all this rambling mess (which, if you read all of it, I am SO SO SORRY), is that the very existence of Pro Heroes and Villains exist solely because of a few factors that exist in a cycle.
Pro Heroes = $$$ -> Schools for more heroes -> ignoring quirk-related-problems -> more villains -> pro heroes beat up villains -> pro heroes =$$$ etc
There is someone, or some organization, that sits above all of this. There has to be. There has to be some more logical explanation as to why this type of Hero v Villain culture has been allowed to exist all of this time, and things have not drifted more back in the direction of police vs lawbreakers. There has to be a reason that its okay for heroes to be so popular. There has to be a reason that children are allowed to be groomed into becoming heroes. There has to be a reason that there isn’t more help out there for people with these types of potentially destructive quirks.
There has to be reasons.
There has to be reasons for how the Hero Commission moves. There has to be reasons for how the police move. There has to be a reason that society is still allowed to go on like this, and that its become culturally acceptable.
If anyone out there can put all my rambling into clearer words and actively wants to, I would love that. Thank you for taking the time to read my mess!

‘Renegades’ trilogy by Marissa Meyer: review
Welcome today to a post I have been waiting to do for months. I never do entire posts for book reviews, but since this was a trilogy (and one of my favorites I read this year) I decided it would deserve a little more.
Note: I will be doing a spoiler-free review first and then I’ll put a warning before talking about each individual book :)
Synopsis: The Renegades are a syndicate of prodigies—humans with extraordinary abilities—who emerged from the ruins of a crumbled society and established peace and order where chaos reigned. As champions of justice, they remain a symbol of hope and courage to everyone... except the villains they once overthrew.
Trilogy Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I honestly think these are the best books I’ve ever read. The description was fascinating, easy to follow and gave amazing imagery without that heaviness that a lot of fantasy books have (this is more sci-fi/dystipia-ish but still).
The characters felt real and their individual voices were clear from start to finish. I loved every single character, even the ones I hated. 
However, there is one thing that bothered me BUT it does align with their world and that is the lack of accountability certain characters recieve (but I will be talking about that in my Supernova review).
Then the PLOT OH MY GOSH. I mean, it’s superheroes. It’s nearly impossible to be original with a plot that isn’t the same as any Marvel or DC comic/movie/show. And yet Marissa Meyer that such a beautiful job of taking a common conflict (heroes vs villains, villains wanting to take over the world) and turning it into a unique plot with amazing twists. 
I mentioned the world-building before, but I’ll do it again. Third person POV is not my favorite and neither is heavy world building like the one this book needed and had. Still, it was written in such a simple way that I didn’t feel like she was trying to confuse me, it was just a story.
Overall, this series was amazing and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fast paced, mind-blowing world building and compelling characters that will make you feel single to the core even in a relationship.
🚨Spoilers Ahead🚨
Renegades ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“We were all villains in the beginning.”
I went into this book with low expectations because I didn’t think I’d like Marissa Meyer’s style and boy was I wrong.
The first few chapters were a bit confusing but the moment Adrian fixed Nova’s bracelet I KNEW this would steer towards romance and it sold me. And then Nightmare making fun of the Sentinel for his comic book phrases and poses was my favorite thing ever. That would be me as a superhero, no doubt.
I really liked the way the plot progressed “slowly” without feeling dragged on. In fact, despite it’s slower pace of the story, the book still felt quick and that just won a million points with me.
Don’t even get me started on the Anarchists. I LOVED them. I like how they weren’t presented as villains from Nova’s POV, just enemies of a totalitarian state. Not even just in her point of view though. I genuinely didn’t think any of them were bad until Ingrid decided to show up at the library and almost killed Sketch’s crew.
And speaking of Sketch’s crew … the minor characters??? Hello??? Who writes side characters that are SO good?? Oscar is my favorite though. He wins. Danna being the only one to question Nova about Adrian’a feelings for her was hilarious, although it stressed me out that Nova put her to sleep. Counterpoint: it was very cute that the only way she could stop thinking of Adrian liking her was by putting Danna to sleep. Very on point teenage reaction. I would’ve done the same thing if only I wasn’t trying to remain anonymous in the organization that indirectly killed my parents. 
The climax, on the other hand, felt a teensy bit rushed but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy Nodrian in their not-date. It was adorable, especially when they stopped at the kid’s party and then Nova panicking over the mere thought of going on the ferris wheel with Adrian. All the carnival chapters where my favorite thing ever and I really wished they hadn’t ended with Nova killing the woman who raised her. But I did like the irony of it being Ingrid who told her she didn’t have the guts to press the trigger and then she died at the hands of Nova’s gun. 
AND THE ENDING WITH ACE BEING ALIVE. That shook me. I suspected it, of course, but it shook me to my core. 10/10 plot twist there.
Archenemies ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I guess I figured you deserve to have good dreams every once in a while. Even if you never sleep.”
This one gets six stars because somehow I read it in 11 hours and I’ve never read such a large book in one day. The entire story was just fast-paced action, superhero world building and Nodrian flirting and eventually kissing. Best book ever.
I liked how in this book we got a closer look into other character relationships like Oscar and Ruby and then Danna’s suspicions over Nova. I would’ve liked to see more of Danna’s friendship with the team though, since at times it seemed she was only there to send passive aggressive comments at Nova. And the Sentinel’s “death” was amazing. Pure comic book material right there. 
There is this thing though that I mentioned in the general review that bothered me and it’s when they reveal Agent N. This weapon they created using Max’s blood is a great example of how the Renegades had obtained way too much power. It’s when we start to see that maybe Nova and the Anarchists are right. The Renegades are slowly becoming a dictatorship and it’s bothersome that nobody except Nova and Adrian notice. Especially when it was so obvious with things like them using Agent N “against every prodigy who didn’t follow the Renegades code”. Sure, they were criminals, but that wasn’t about arresting them. It was about changing the DNA of people who made one mistake and were immediately deemed enemies of the state.
Back to the good stuff, Nodrian flirting was the highlight of this book. They’re both so awkward and adorable, especially when Nova’s teaching Adrian how to shoot and then when they’re in his room later on. The whole “you want me to ignore everything?” and “you’re not allowed to have girls in your room?” quotes KILLED me. Those were peak flirting moments and I’m immensely surprised by the way that Marissa Meyer manages to write teenagers realistically as an adult and not even having teenage kids of her own. Also, Nova opening up to Adrian was just. No. It killed me. My ghost is writing this btw.
The ending, once again, amazing. I loved it. Not only did it once again show Frostbite’s true colors, show us how much hate Adrian actually held against Nightmare and the way Nova had softened by the Renegades’ influence. And Ace Anarchy’s capture goes into the good things pile.
Supernova ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“To be honest, I’m not sure there are such things as villains anymore. Maybe there never really were.”
Is it a bad review if I just insert the word “AH” for the next ten lines? Yes? Damn it. I admit that I was expecting something much different, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I have never cursed and squealed so much by reading and had I not bought the hardcover with my own money, I would’ve thrown that book against the wall. It stressed me out. First of all, getting Nova and Adrian kissing in the tunnels a few chapters before Adrian arrests her for being Nightmare was another level of messed up. Clearly, she did everything in her power to save him from her house’s explosion and he threw it out the window in blind anger. And then the whole execution thing??? That was horrifying and it’s when the Renegades’ incompetence really showed its true colors. They couldn’t bring the people back to their side - because they failed - so they sentenced a broken, dying man and an underage girl who acted under the manipulation of her entire family, to death. If Hugh had ever even attempted to find out what happened to both Artino girls, none of that mess would’ve happened, but instead Lady Indomitable died and he went “WELL, can’t do anything about her last task, can we?” I get he was preoccupied by her orphaned son and the Ace of Anarchy, but it was as simple as going back into the house and searching. In fact, this entire book was just showing how their society was crumbling and in the end they went “we were all heroes”. I’m surprised Nova forgave the entire Renegades organization for what they did because even if it was Ace who sent a hit after her and her family, the Renegades were still willing to overuse their power. 
And once again back to the good stuff before I end up bashing the Renegades even more, I never thought I would be on board with Adrian and Nova’s relationship at the end of the book. I try not to ship toxic relationships in YA because they happen a lot and I wouldn’t like younger readers to think that it’s okay, but I loved how both Nova and Adrian were willing to make a change for their relationship to work. They compromised because they loved each other so much it didn’t matter who had tried to kill the other person and their dad or who hadn’t advocated against the other’s execution, you know, the ups and downs of every relationship. While I do wish we had seen them talking about everything, I get a book can only have a certain amount of words and I was glad just the same with how it ended. Also, Leroy’s threat to Adrian is iconic, just like Oscar proclaiming his undying love for Ruby at the arena were they almost witnessed multiple murders.
The epilogue. Just. Wow. I knew it before because I’m smart and I spoiled it but I NEED another Renegades book. You can’t just end the series saying Evie Artino was Magpie and her being as angry as Nova once was. Like, no. You just can’t. That was a crime against humanity, tbh, but overall the series was amazing and I have never been more grateful to spend almost $80 in books.

Regarding Danielle (Dani) Phantom Part 1
Tumblr media
I'm currently doing research  for the sequel to “Nowhere To Run” and this is one of those tricky things we don't know much about since Dani was only seen in two episodes. But since her story becomes intertwined with Valerie’s I’m going to combine the rest in another post. Anyways lets get started with what we probably already know about the clones Vlad made of Danny over the course of several months...
As far as we know Vlad only managed to make five functioning clones:
Tumblr media
Skeleton Clone: This is the first clone Danny encounters at a miniature golf course that attempts to follow through with Vlad’s orders to get a mid-morph sample from the real Danny. And from I can tell its pretty clear that this clone is one of the clones that’s full ghost with no human DNA left.
Tumblr media
Monster Clone (aka Franken-Danny lolz!): Now this clone is the second one to attack Danny but technically Danny meets Dani, otherwise known as Danielle, right before this when she lies to him and claims she’s a cousin of his that ran away from home. But a cousin from which side of the family? What’s more when Dani shows off her ghost powers to help Danny fight off this clone does she seriously expect him to believe they’re related? Because honestly, what are the odds of someone else in their family being exposed to the Fenton Ghost Portal and having an accident with it too that gave them powers...? I highly doubt any family they have left agree to visit them there given all the ghost hunting anyway!
Sorry sorry! Looks like I got a bit sidetracked there so ok, lets get back to the monster clone! So one thing you’ll notice right away is that this clone looks a lot different from the others, and frankly (yes Frankenstein pun intended) my guess would be that this version of ‘Danny’ that Vlad cloned takes more after Jack Fenton given his size and overall body mass. However, much like the first clone I think his human DNA ‘died’ too which makes him another clone that’s sadly fully ghost.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tiny Ghost: This third clone shows us something rather interesting, but its still sad when you think about it. Anyways this ghost is clearly full-ghost too and in order to keep himself stable he keeps his form as small as possible because when he has to use up more energy to retain a normal-sized form as seen above, his form begins to disintegrate which we see when an eye pops out of its socket and turns into raw ectoplasm...gross!
Now, while this clone eventually attacks Danny too, Vlad ultimately ends up using him clone to overshadow Danny while he’s human and trapped in the same box from “Bitter Reunions” so he can’t fight back when Vlad plans to put Danny into a pod to obtain the mid-morph sample he needs to stabilize our next clone in the lineup-
-the Prime Clone.
Tumblr media
Prime Clone: Now remember this because it’s important and will be on the test! So this clone, like Dani, managed to or was designed on purpose to retain his human DNA unlike the previous 3 who either couldn’t accept any human DNA or it ‘died’ and became just another part of their ghost forms. To keep this clone as stable as possible I’m sure Vlad kept him in a state of suspended animation to keep his energy consumption to a minimum.  I mean, in the end none of the clones were stable, but Vlad since wanted a perfect clone of the real Danny and this one is the closest aside from Dani herself, I’m sure he put every precaution in place to make sure this one would survive long enough to take the last component he needed from Danny, the mid-morph sample.
Ok, so going back to the Tiny Ghost for a minute, one thing that I found interesting is how after Danny managed to overload the pod and escape, if only briefly, unlike before this clone looked more like the real thing when he floated out of the pod when forced out of the real ones body. It was almost as if the act of overshadowing the real Danny let him absorb some of the pure ectoplasmic energy from the original he needed to sustain a normal size and appearance. However, because I think Danny’s energy was too strong for him to handle, it quickly overwhelmed the poor clone resulting in his demise just like the other two...
Poor guy, I still feel so bad for all of them since none of them are to blame for what Vlad made them do! They deserved better! RIP Tiny Ghost!
Tumblr media
And now, without further ado, we reach the final clone...
Tumblr media
...everyone’s favorite half-ghost girl, Dani Phantom!
So unlike the other clones I think Vlad put a bit of extra work into her for two reasons. One, Vlad wanted to see if another clone besides the prime could maintain their human DNA safely, and secondly he planned to use her to get to Danny by making her more self-aware than the other 3 who were just canon fodder, or pawns which seems more like Vlad’s style. I mean she was clearly a pawn too, but more like a higher ranking pawn, such as his knight or bishop on a chess board.
Another important thing to note is the biggest difference of all that sets Dani apart from the other clones; the simple fact that this clone...is a GIRL!
My theory is that Vlad probably altered her DNA on purpose to lower Danny’s guard when he sent Dani in to trick him. I really think danny would have been MUCH more suspicious of a little boy claiming to be his cousin, especially one that most likely would have looked almost identical to him when he was a little boy. Sadly I couldn’t find a good picture of Danny when we see him as a small kid in the show so I’ll be borrowing an image from Amethyst-Ocean’s genderbent art just to make a point:
Tumblr media
See? Doesn’t this kid look exactly like Danny? That’s why I think that sending in another male clone would have been a dead giveaway that something was right, no pun intended this time. So that’s why I think it was very devious of Vlad to make his second-to-last clone a female by changing the X chromosome in Danny’s DNA to a Y, making her a girl. I mean I’m no scientist but I remember that from school so feel free to look up more about it!
At any rate, the point is that  I believe Vlad made Dani a female clone and more intelligent than the others for a reason, that reason being getting her close enough to Danny to catch him off guard. But what Vlad didn’t count on though is that maybe he taught her a little too well since she was too curious for her own good and while watching Vlad invisibly she overheard him calling the rest of them ‘bad clones’ and ‘mistakes’ after revealing the prime clone to Danny while he was trapped to gloat and shove it in his face that he was MAKING his own perfect half-ghost son since Danny refused to join him.
And since it was imprinted into ALL the clones to love and be loyal to Vlad, Dani decided to confront Vlad about what he said after Danny escaped, clearly feeling hurt by his words, and asked if he thought that she was like the other clones too and just another ‘mistake.’ But Vlad, being Vlad, takes her concerns in stride and comes up with a convincing lie while taking advantage of her innocence and loyalty and then Vlad sends her after Danny again while he’s too tired and weak to fight back. Vlad probably only did that keep her busy and to spare himself the trouble of tracking Danny down himself since he’d much rather get the pod read for another attempt.
When Dani finds him, its clear that she still has her doubts and Danny tries to convince her that Vlad’s only using her and doesn’t care what happens to her, but for now Dani is convinced Vlad loves her and is telling the truth about wanting to save her too along with stabilizing the prime clone so she attacks Danny and drags him back to Vlad like the loyal daughter she wanted to prove she was. But when Dani questions Vlad again when he asks her to do something very dangerous that she SAW killed another clone after he did it, as in overshadowing the real Danny, and melted right in front of her...that’s when Vlad reveals his true feelings and snaps at Dani, ordering her to do it and saying she only exists to serve him.
And after she finally sees his true colors, Dani makes the right choice and sides with Danny by freeing him from the pod. Together they fight against Vlad too even though both of them were feeling pretty weak after the whole ordeal so its a good thing Sam and Tucker show up when they did and hit Vlad with the Spector Speeder when even Danny’s Ghostly Wail didn’t keep Vlad down for long! And that’s his strongest move!
Tumblr media
But to close all this all off, since the prime clone also perished when his pod fell to the floor and destabilized the poor guy after he opened his eyes for the first and last time, that makes Dani Vlad’s last surviving clone...
And in my personal opinion I think Dani is Vlad’s best clone and worse mistake since he said all he wanted...was love, but Dani was giving him the very thing he wanted from Danny and he threw that back in her face. I really think Dani genuinely loved him, wanted to please him and make Vlad proud, but in the end she was very human too and since she didn’t know any better at first the poor kid was confused about right and wrong. That’s why I’m so glad Dani chose to do the right thing and that she was smart enough to question Vlad’s methods, otherwise she would have died too and I legit would have cried over that!
And that ends part 1 of my research and theories about Dani Phantom! I hope you liked it even though I talked a lot about the other clones too. But I think they’re a big part of who Dani is too and who she became because unlike them she was given something extra. She was given the ultimate gift of keeping her humanity, innocence, and intelligence and that made all of the difference. I think the same could have been said of ALL the clones had they survived too so it’s tragic they didn’t survive long enough to become anything more than mindless drones. Sadly, they were just pawns in Vlad’s game, but Dani...she really was the daughter Vlad never realized he had that loved him with all her heart which could have been enough to give him the love and adoration he said he craved...
And now, Dani’s the one searching for a reason to keep going, to keep existing, and is trying to prove that out of all of the clones she actually was Vlad’s greatest creation, not a mistake. The only mistake Vlad made, was going too far and being so willing to toss her aside so easily.

Global Alert: Hydrogen Peroxide, Humidifier and Water mixed 50 Percent used indoors will "Kill Covid 19". Fact that will save your "Life, Family and Friends". US President's, Vice and Congressman attack my integrity for attempting to save lives globally. Unbelievable, Honorable Discharged US Army Sgt not afraid to "Stand and Tell Truth's". Oath to "GOD" matters.
Hydrogen peroxide nebulizer are humidifier to treat Covid-19 infection The following is from Thomas Levy, M.D, J.D., a board certified cardiolosit and a prolific medical writer of 13 books and a international speaker.  Thomas is a good friend of mine and I trust him.  Dr. Frank Shallenberger is also an internationally well known doctor whom I trust as well.  Although I have not personally tested this, I will recommend to you just in case you need it.  This method makes scientific sense and is safe, most definitely worth trying, especially now at this global covid-19 crisis. -Richard Cheng, M.D., Ph.D.An At-Home Treatment That Can Cure Any Virus, Including CoronavirusOriginally Conceptualized, circa 1990, by Charles Farr, MD Subsequently Researched and Prescribed by Frank Shallenberger, MD Current Protocol Created by Thomas Levy, MD, JDAlthough COVID-19, aka coronavirus, is deadly in some select cases, and it can spread rapidly, there is a simple, very inexpensive, and highly effective treatment that can treat and rapidly resolve coronavirus and virtually any other respiratory virus. While different individuals can be expected to have variable degrees of positive response, this intervention can be anticipated to eliminate eventual fatal disease outcomes in all but the most advanced cases.
As I hope you will eventually experience, the treatment works for all acute viral infections, and especially well for flu viruses of any variety. In fact, although we are constantly conditioned to not believe in anything “too good to be true,” you will never have to worry about getting a cold or the flu again because you can cure it on your own.The key ingredient in this treatment is common household 3% hydrogen peroxide, and this is the same substance that can be purchased in a 32-ounce plastic bottle at Walmart, for 88 cents, or at Walgreens for under a $1.00. Perhaps you have never heard of hydrogen peroxide therapy, but since the treatment was first championed by Dr. Charles Farr in about 1990, thousands of doctors have used this therapy for decades to conquer infections in many thousands of patients throughout the world.
How and Why Hydrogen Peroxide WorksBecause hydrogen peroxide consists of a water molecule (H2O) with an extra oxygen atom (H2O2), it is this extra oxygen atom that makes it so deadly for viruses. In order to comprehend why H2O2 therapy works so well, you must first understand that viral infections are eradicated from the body not by killing the virus itself, but rather by killing the cells that produce them.Technically, viruses are not alive, and so it is not possible to kill them. But some agents can physically break down the viral structure and render them inactive. Viruses are actually pieces of genetic code that, in and of themselves, can neither survive nor reproduce. Therefore, in order to replicate, viruses need to infect cells, which means that in the interior of cell, a virus uses the cell’s own DNA and RNA in order to effectively reproduce. Essentially, therefore, the virus controls an infected cell and uses the cell to manufacture new viruses. Then, the new virus can exit the cell and proceed to infect other cells. As a result, the way to control any viral infection is not to kill the virus; rather, the infected cells that have been turned into viral factories must be killed.
This is the role of the extra oxygen atom in hydrogen peroxide.Under normal circumstances with a healthy immune system, one’s immune cells produce their own hydrogen peroxide to kill the infected cells that propagate viruses. When one’s immune cells are overwhelmed, such as the case with COVID-19, hydrogen peroxide therapy merely assists the immune cells in doing the job for which they were originally created.One Disadvantage of Dr. Farr’s Original H2O2 TherapyFrom a patient and consumer perspective, the single main drawback to Dr. Farr’s original therapy is/was that it is primarily an intravenous (IV) therapy. Under most circumstances, this means that you must either administer the IV needle yourself or depend upon another person to assist you. Unfortunately, this is beyond the logistical (and perhaps financial) capacity of most people, and it may be one reason why the original hydrogen peroxide therapy is not more widespread.
Nevertheless, it should be realized that the proper intravenous application of hydrogen peroxide exerts a powerful anti-viral and general anti-pathogen effect.Dr. Shallenberger’s Ingenious Use of a NebulizerThe great news is that there is a safe and simple way to avoid doctors and IV needles. This method developed by Dr. Frank Shallenberger is almost as effective as IV, can be performed at home, and is much less costly than IV.The treatment is known as nebulized hydrogen peroxide, and Dr. Shallenberger began using the technique some years ago when he had a patient who was taking asthma medication that her doctor had been administering in a nebulizer.
For those who are unfamiliar, a nebulizer is a device that is able to convert a liquid into tiny, microscopic bubbles. As a result, these extremely small bubbles, which appear as smoke escaping from the nebulizer, can be inhaled into the deepest regions of the lungs without any discomfort or irritation. Such a device has long been utilized for asthmatics to get medication to open their lungs, but Shallenberger further noticed that nebulizers have a systemic effect, which is delivery far beyond the lungs only. According to one of Dr. Shallenberger’s patients, the inhalation of her prescribed drug in the nebulizer was “unbelievably strong,” and “affected her entire body.”What Was Taking PlaceIt turns out that the tiny bubbles were not only providing medication to the patient’s lungs, but the drug was being delivered to her entire body through her lungs.
Based on Dr. Farr’s prior research, Shallenberger reasoned that perhaps H2O2 could be delivered to the entire body with a nebulizer. Dr. Shallenberger tried the nebulizer delivery system on himself, and he was delighted to discover that the treatment was extremely easy to administer, very comfortable like breathing extremely pure air, and the treatment was in no way irritating. Shallenberger’s first actually ill test subject was his wife who had developed the initial symptoms of flu. She immediately began 10-minute treatments every waking hour, and within 72 hours, (three days), the flu was fully cured. Shallenberger was predictably amazed in that even IV hydrogen peroxide cannot resolve flu in much less time.
Since Mrs. Shallenberger’s rapid recovery, Dr. Shallenberger has treated hundreds of cases of colds, flus, sinusitis, and bronchitis all with the same results. Indeed, Shallenberger has discovered that nebulizer treatments actually have an advantage over the IV therapy. Not only is the hydrogen peroxide disseminated into the entire body through the lungs, it is also going directly to the areas of the body that are most affected by viruses: the sinuses, throat, bronchial tract, and lungs. This is especially important since colds and flu viruses replicate to very high titers in these areas, serving to supply a continuous feed of virus to the rest of the body.
Effective hydrogen peroxide nebulization quite literally, “chops the head off of the snake,” and the virus present elsewhere in the body can then readily be mopped up when the new virus influx has been terminated.It should be kept in mind that hydrogen peroxide kills all pathogens very readily upon contact in an open wound. It should, therefore, be understandable why putting a fine mist of hydrogen peroxide in all the areas of maximal viral replication promptly puts the body on a pathway to rapid healing. Dr. Levy’s Simple, Inexpensive, and Extremely Effective H2O2 ProtocolEarly Onset and Treatment of VirusRegular off-the shelf 3% hydrogen peroxide can be utilized. Preparations of greater pharmacological purity can be obtained if desired.For most adults, the 3% concentration can be utilized in the nebulization chamber undiluted. This optimizes the degree and rapidity of anti-viral and anti-pathogen effect.When a runny nose or slightly sore throat is already present, it is recommended that 10-to 15-minute nebulization sessions be undertaken roughly four times daily or until a symptomatic relief is realized.
Many individuals report significant improvement only a few hours after the first one or two treatments. But it would be advisable to persist in these treatments several times daily for at least 24 to 48 hours after you feel everything is completely normal in your sinuses, nose, and throat.For some, the 3% concentration results in too much stinging/burning in the nose. Such individuals can dilute with water until they find their highest tolerable concentration. Nearly everybody can tolerate a 50/50 combination of the 3% hydrogen peroxide and water. However, still lower concentrations can be utilized with clearly beneficial effect.Prevention/MaintenanceAs it is a completely non-toxic therapy, nebulization can be administered as often as desired.
If done on a daily basis at least once, a very positive impact on bowel and gut function will often be realized as killing the chronic pathogen colonization present in most noses and throats stops the 24/7 swallowing of these pathogens and their associated toxins.If daily prevention is not a practical option, the effectiveness of this treatment is optimized when somebody sneezes in your face or you finally get off of the plane after a trans-Atlantic flight. Don’t wait for initial symptoms. Just nebulize at your first opportunity.
Final Note: This fact and protocol sheet does not contain a copyright, and a patent has not been applied for. Therefore, I encourage the reader to disseminate the contents far and wide to as many people as possible. Because you now have a simple, inexpensive, and effective way to conquer virtually all viral infections, you do not have to live in fear of COVID-19 or any other pandemic. "Please share as a Public Safety Alert" step 1. mix water and hydrogen peroxide 50/50 percent step 2. Pour mixture into a humidifier step 3. Turn humidifier on and breath in mist being released in any room in your home. Try to do this every day, be well. Hope this helps everyone, friend always. mlh.
Yours in good health,Thomas E. Levy, MD, JD www.PeakEnergy.com March 18, 2020

My take on feminine enbodyment and female empowerment
This concept of modern feminism and pushing men out of the picture affects me differently than the average woman, because I was raised without a dad. When my mom adopted me and my other siblings, she never got married and instead asked her best female friend to step in and help raise all four of us. I was very loved, but I felt that absence of a father all my life. It affected nearly every part of my childhood and teenage years, and it continues to affect my adult life. I wanted to get a boyfriend and eventually get married, but the only constant guy in my life was my older brother. Therefore, I had very few examples of what respectful, good, masculine men looked like.
When I was a sophomore in college, my roommate at the time showed me a YouTube channel called Blimey Cow, and they had made a video called “Ten Ways to get the Right Guy to like You.” I hadn’t thought about this video or this channel in a few years, because they primarily make Christian content.  I’m not a Christian anymore, nor do I agree with all the beliefs of Christianity. However, I decided to go back to this video two days ago, because I remembered how these creators directly challenged how our culture defines female empowerment. Specifically they used this video to present that challenge, with an emphasis on noting the difference between female liberation and female objectification. Some of the suggestions they made to help girls find the right guys included showing interest in their hobbies, supporting their local chivalry, letting the guys in their lives know they appreciate them, putting less emphasis on how much skin they show and more emphasis on who they are as a person.  As a 20 year old college kid, these young content creators made a bigger impact on my views on men, women and the hyper-sexual movement than I would have thought. As a result, their video gave me the nudge to dive deeper into this topic through writing.
When you first learn of the term “female empowerment”, it sounds attractive enough: women being seen as a force to be reckoned with, authoritative, strong leaders who are goddesses in nearly every way. Rather than being stuck at home to take care of the kids, women are encouraged to pursue their career dreams, step into more masculine leadership roles and “be the boss”, for lack of a better term. It all sounds appealing until you start to dig deeper into what’s behind the phrase “female empowerment.” One big part of how I discovered this occurred last summer.
In July of 2020, I chose to invest a serious amount of money to an online holistic sex course. It was called Well-F*cked Woman, created by a woman named Kim Anami. Through using the tools learned through this six week course, Kim claims to have helped thousands of people all over the world, especially women, to connect with the untapped power of their sexual energy. She believes that a big reason why people are as stressed, unhealthy and unhappy as they are is because they’re not having the right kind of sex. Moreover, they’re not having the right kind of sex often enough. Whether you’re in a couple or single makes no difference. If you want to gain body confidence, get orgasms or even heal ancestral trauma, Kim claims this course would teach you how to obtain all those things by utilizing your sexual energy.
When I read the information on it, I became very intrigued. After several days of listening to her podcasts and reading her blogs, I became more convinced that this course could be a big help for my personal well-being.  At the time, my goal was to use the course to heal some of the imbalanced sacral energy I still had. Hopefully, it could even heal some ancestral wounds I carried in my DNA. If I achieved that, finding a romantic partner would be more of a bonus than a direct goal. So when I received the stimulus check from the government, I used that money to pay for the course and one of Kim’s jade yoni eggs.
For each of the six weeks, we would get a video with a written syllabus to discuss different topics, most of which revolved around sex. One week we would focus on self-love practices, one week we would talk about the relationship between sex and money, another week we learned about food, etc. In that first week, I began the exercises easily enough. However, I also started to feel very conflicted about the information we received in this course. For example, in the syllabus about self-love, one of the first statements Kim made about women is that “most have rape fantasies.” Admittedly, I didn’t really understand what that meant or what it was, until a friend told me. Once I did understand it, it bothered me deeply, to say the least. As someone who claimed that her work helped heal women’s sexual trauma, to hear Kim make such a statement right off the bat made me feel uneasy.
In a separate journal, I had written down my progress of the course and some of the conclusions I had made about what it taught and about the woman who taught it. In one entry, I had observed that it seemed to take a lot of money to become a “well-f*cked woman”, by Kim’s standards. If needed, it could possibly add up to hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. For instance, if you wanted to use a jade egg as a sexual healing tool, that cost $300. The six week course itself cost almost $1000. Kim also recommended using therapy injections to change your neural pathways, if you were a victim of sexual trauma.  Just getting one injection is expensive enough, but if you “need” more than one injection or appointment, that will add up fast. Sadly, such treatments are not easily accessible to everyone who wants sexual healing. It certainly wasn’t for me.
Additionally, a recurring message that came up in the course was that it’s important for couples to have sex more than once a week. In this case, it wasn’t talking about the faster paced sex described as being numb and fleeting. On the contrary, Kim wanted us to aim for the slower, orgasmic, breath focused sex where you’re working to maintain and build up a flow of sexual energy. While in some ways, this course educated people on sex differently than our modern culture, some aspects seem pretty similar to me. For example, one night stands are still seen as acceptable situations to practice generating this energy. We were encouraged to practice sex acts two to three times a week, to the point of becoming sex addicts. Also, even though Kim frowned upon pornography, we were still taught to utilize BDSM as a way to create polarity in our relationships. This was to make sure that “spark of passion” was maintained for the long term. Lastly, Kim would sometimes demonstrate problematic double standards when it came to showing examples of how to respect your partner. In one of her stories about “helping” her partner become confident with himself, she talked about making a point to touch his private parts in public, whether he was okay with it or not. If not, she claimed “it was his problem.” In my opinion, if they’re genders had been switched, she would have been called out for her disrespectful behavior immediately among the group.
In this class, Kim discouraged us from using substances like alcohol and drugs during the practice, because of how they damage the body. On the other hand, she promoted addictions to sex as something positive, as something to attain for as a human being. Whether you are in a couple doing the act or you’re a single adult who’s just masturbating, you were encouraged to have some kind of sex several times a week. According to Kim, it needed to get to the point where you felt you couldn’t go about your day without generating this energy. “What an addiction does is that it causes you to stop thinking,” says Michael Knowles, who was a guest on the Candace Owens Show discussing modern feminism.  “It enslaves you. It makes you prone to certain behavior, and when you’re not thinking, that’s when the people who want to grab power can come in and force it on you.” Too much of anything can be detrimental for your well-being, on all levels.  During a time where protection of boundaries for my spiritual life had become very important, this way of thinking pushed me to discover what kind of boundaries I had and to stick to them. In this case, it lead me to the conclusion that if being like Kim meant being addicted to sex, disrespecting the men I care about, and using methods of sexual control for the sake of “polarity”, then I would rather not be like her at all.
With all that being said, I believe the big question is this: how exactly does the WAP culture of free sex and female empowerment differ from the holistic sex culture I learned about in the summer of 2020? How does our pop culture differ from the Well-F*cked Woman course, in how we’re being educated about sex? In my opinion, one culture pushes the more superficial, fleeting benefits of sex in our faces, while the other pushes for using sex and sexual energy as a way to harness untapped power. This power can, supposedly, be used to energize us, heal our bodies, and manifest things into our lives. Regardless, both cultures seem to be more concerned with using sex to gain power than using it as a means to express true love.  Both cultures seem to encourage women to “embrace their femininity” by leaving their underwear off more often. Both cultures seem to promote double standards on how partners should respect each other and their boundaries. Both cultures still push us to become addicted to sex in order to have a fulfilled, happier life, because according to them, every aspect of our lives will disintegrate without it.
As a result of the lockdown, last year turned out to be most isolating time for us, and it was intense enough to put many people into a deep state of depression. At a time when everyone is stuck online and forced to keep further apart, this is when people in the online sex business—holistic or otherwise—will benefit the most from that loneliness. They can use it to make those profits and fill their own pockets. This becomes more obvious when you observe their marketing tactics, including the ones I noticed for Kim Anami’s website: unless you give me your money and do what I tell you to do, you will never be “well-f*cked.” Everything in your life will deteriorate unless you become “well-f*cked.” You will be a brainwashed zombie forever, easily manipulated, unless you become “well-f*cked.”As my friend Lee Yun would say, “These tactics are designed to create an empty void in people that can’t be filled.” In the cases of some individuals, even if they were to try, it would cost them more time, money and energy than they were lead to believe.
For those of you who wonder if I still keep up with the practices I learned from this course, I haven’t. At least, I haven’t kept up to the degree that would be necessary. My jade egg is sitting on my altar collecting dust, even as I write this. Because of the amount of money I spent to buy the egg, this is not something I’m proud to admit. A jade egg is a sacred, special tool that deserves to be put to use for the highest good, and eventually, I will find a teacher that can help me do so. I just don’t want to have to conform to this holistic “WAP” standard to get there.
Surprisingly, by reflecting on my past through watching Blimey Cow’s videos, I realized there are still some values about sex, intimacy and femininity that I learned as a teenage Christian that matter to me now as an adult witch. In my opinion, sex is something very sacred that should not be taken so lightly, because of how it connects you to your partner in an intense, physical and spiritual way. For me, I take it seriously enough to still choose to wait until I get a husband and to choose not to masturbate. Additionally, when I do have sex with my lifelong partner, it will be as much about him as it will be about me. This means respecting and honoring him as a man as well as I know how. In my opinion, if you encourage people to use something like sex to attain higher spiritual goals, but neglect to show basic respect to your partner’s boundaries about his body, then in the words of Jordan Taylor from Blimey Cow, “you’re doing it wrong.”

Wolfsbane : Noblesse Fanfic (post-ending)
(previous chapter)
Chapter 60 – Help out of Nowhere
“Sir Rael?!”
“What are you doing here?!”
Contrary to the daze in their huge eyes, Tao’s and M-21’s voices spoke of glee, although they were too occupied at the moment to show any welcoming gesture.
As much as Rael was braced for what he was beholding, things only took the worse turn throughout his race towards KSA, which is why the distortion in his face intensified as he neared his destination.
Now that he finally entered the heart of the calamity, he was appalled to find the perfect example of chaos.
There was cataclysm in every corner his eyes could meet; Tao, M-21, and Takio, now somewhat used to the discord, eyed what Rael was holding at either side of his arms, which made their eyes expand for the second time.
“M-mr. Jang?!”
“What happened? What’s with that look?”
“And who’s this...? His attire tells me he’s one of yours.”
“...Long story. Let’s save it for later. First of all, I need you to do something about this one. He’s burnt badly.”
Tao said no more, as he was already aware of how Yuhyung was grunting non-stop, and he swiftly led Rael to the KSA lab.
“I did what I can at the moment, but he’s gonna need full check-up and heavy treatment, since it’s obvious the fire that burned him is no ordinary sort. I’ve never seen such serious burn ever since my departure from the Union.”
Tao muttered, after cloaking Yuhyung from head to toes with a spray specially made for burns.
Just as he pointed out, Yuhyung, even though he was grunting less, still looked like he was in pain, enough to make the bystanders worry that he might kick the bucket as soon as they take their eyes off him.
Unfortunately, they were not given more time to care about the human.
“Krr...”
“Kraah!”
They have been binding the modified agents, employees, and civilians and holding them captives, using the lab as a temporary concentration camp.
However, they were beginning to wonder if the gas in the missile was embedded with zombie virus, for the modified humans did not cease to shove themselves into their eyes.
Shifting away from Rael (whose eyes for some reason were fixed on Yuhyung), Tao, Takio, and M-21 had to dedicate themselves in stopping the group of people that crawled their ways into the lab.
“By now these people would have spread throughout Seoul. I’m sure this isn’t the only place going through this catastrophe at the moment.”
“But we dare not leave this place. Which is nuts.”
“This will never end if we stick to this measure. We need a solution – a more fundamental solution.”
“Isn’t there any antidote for this phenomenon? If Union came up with a rapid body transformation, I’m sure they had devised something that undoes it at an accelerated rate.”
There’s no way Union would have completed a technology without any safety gear, objected M-21’s face.
Yet they knew that what M-21 was asking for was more than hope – it was a miracle that he was demanding.
“Even if there is such technology, it’d take time for us to apply it for actual use, at none other than a time like this!”
Tao flung himself towards the two of the captured humans, who were squirming away from their original spots.
M-21 did have a point, however – the founding cause of this disaster is the rapid body transformation that took over people.
The most effective solution, therefore, would be to counterwork their body modification.
And of course, they had no idea where and how to obtain the technology needed.
Nevertheless, there is a reason why hope is meant to shine at the darkest moment; a solution was given to them so very absurdly and suddenly.
“Tao! Take a look at this!”
The man’s head rotated right away; it was only on a rare occasion that Rael would address him with his name.
The noble who was away from the skirmish so far unbenched himself with something: a notebook in one hand and a palm-sized kit in the other.
“What’s this? Where did you...”
Perplexed, Tao directed his gaze towards where Rael just sprang from, and understanding smeared across his face.
He concentrated on the notebook, to soon enough lift his shuddering eyes from the papers.
Compared to his eyes that were ridiculously far from calm, his lips were curved in an unmistakable sign of hope.
“I-is this true?!”
“Beats me. But it’s worth a shot, don’t you think?”
“What? Tao, what is it?”
Asked Takio, who was immersed in a battle with empty hands for once.
“Guys, I need you to buy me some time! Perhaps we’d be able to settle this once and for all, in one go!”
Immediately, the three pairs of eyes flashed from three gorgeous faces.
As Takio, Rael, and M-21 were chasing and arresting the modified humans, not at all dwindling in number and thus giving them impression that there was duplication instead of infection behind all this, Tao frantically whipped his way all over the lab for essential kits and parts.
He snatched away Yuhyung’s bag, luckily in one piece despite the fire, stationed right next to the table serving as Yuhyung’s bed, to go ahead and put his fingers to violent labor as he fidgeted with Yuhyung’s machine, with desperation that was by no means behind the one he harbored during Crombel’s nuclear missile incident.
After who-knows-how-long, Tao raised his voice to let his party know that he was ready.
“Get over here! We’ll need to brief this!”
All men practically threw themselves upon Tao within a second, and the latter wasted no time in explication.
“This is called a GC chip. Simply put, it’s a biochip meant to carry DNA information. And the weapon charged with this chip will target only the creature from which the DNA information was taken.”
“Is this part of Union’s scientific arts? Where did this come from out of blue?”
“We’ll talk about this later. Right now we have to use this thing and...”
Tao’s face abruptly stiffened, his hand thumbing over the last pages of the notebook.
The change was so brisk that Takio, M-21, and Rael could not help plunging their faces into the notebook.
“What? What’s the problem?”
“If this thing targets only the creatures that provided the DNA information, are you saying we must collect from every single victim their DNA information?!”
“...No. I already made adjustments regarding that part, so we only need single DNA that will function as the master key. When a human body goes through body modification, regardless of the intensity of the modification, it will inevitably go through genetic transfiguration, to beget artificial genetic factors. I can pinpoint and sample those common genetic factors that follow all types of body modification. But the thing is...”
Tao had to struggle to move his lips, as six pupils with varying contours and hues bored holes into him.
“We need high-class modified human’s DNA as a sample. Let me give you a rundown of the missile I’m about to launch with the GC chip injected: it will basically work as a neutralizer. I have turned the catalyzing components inside the gas to work exactly the other way, so this gas will neutralize, delete, and, most importantly, permanently exterminate the artificial gene factors in the victims. But human cells never stop diving for good unless their hosts are dead. So by now the victims’ bodies would be teeming with the gene factors from modification. In order to neutralize them all at once, I need DNA information so strong that it will not fail to cover every single gene factor.”
“Is it similar to how you need painkiller at least equal and hopefully stronger than the pain you seek to erase?”
“That’s close enough, M-21. Modified humans that have gone through elaborate modification would boast elaborate, supreme genetic information. So even with just a little bit of their DNA, I’d be able to wash off modification in the victims.”
“Well, then what are you waiting for?”
Takio rolled up his sleeve as he stepped up and offered himself, but Tao waved his head and grabbed his teammate’s arm.
“Takio, you and I received Dark Spear’s power from boss, remember? If the Dark Spear’s power is included in our DNA sample and end up passing onto the victims...”
“...What we’re sweating our behinds off for would be nothing but a child’s play.”
Takio shivered and stepped back, and M-21 was the one to take over the volunteering.
“Then what about me? My body is clean of Frankenstein’s power.”
“I’m afraid you’re not an option, either. As of now your physical makeup is close to that of a werewolf than that of a human. For this GC chip, we need genetic information of a modified human. There’s no guarantee that your genetic information would be compatible for the result we want.”
“...I guess it’s impossible for me to make myself available for the job, if it is a must that you base this missile on a modified human.”
Rael added, to which Tao nodded with despair.
Nobody denied that their standing was preposterously frustrating; they had the remedy right in their noses, but they could not bring themselves to use it.
Just when they were about to plummet into the despair of no exit or safety net, a call as light and bright as a ray of sun awakened them and brought them back to reality.
“Allow me.”
Yuigi clicked her way towards the four men, who flipped their eyes at her as if flipping a pancake.
“DNA from an ex-bodyguard of a Union elder would be more than enough to cure those people, right?”
Yuigi and Takio’s initial plan was to head to KSA together, but upon witnessing how every street and road, for pedestrians or not, were apparently plastered with modified humans, they decided to split up.
And Yuigi was supposed to mediate and control the modified people, so it was not surprising that Takio jumped out of his skin upon spotting her.
“Miss Raciela?! What are you doing here...?! Without you, the civilians...!”
“Don’t worry. You think I would have come without taking that into consideration?”
Yuigi nonchalantly shrugged and showed something in her hand.
It was a communicator, not much different in size from the ones used by the RK, but the founding three members of RK flinched upon recognizing the design.
It was a model adored by the Union.
Sure enough, the men opened their mouths wide when a voice resonated from the communicator.
<What’s your plan regarding these people?>
They were so very inclined to bark at him that he is surely thick-skinned, asking them what to do with the victims of rapid body modification.
Nonetheless, they put their rage aside for the moment, and they shared their plan with the GC chip with the 3rd Elder, to which he responded oh-so-casually.
<Go ahead. I happen to be holding all the victims in their places with my power.>
All the listeners beamed except Tao, who hurriedly tossed a warning.
“Wait – once this gas is detonated, it will surely take effect on you, too. The degree of your genetic completion is superior to that of Miss Yuigi, so your power won’t be completely gone. But there’s a chance that you will never get to exercise powers like before.”
Only silence existed beyond the communicator and at the lab, where variously colored hairs were nestled together.
<Which is why I must be the one to stay behind. You have a country, a city, a life to protect – you have someone’s life to protect. So you don’t want to replace me and lose your powers, do you?>
The RK’s mouths were instantly shut, for they did not expect the 3rd Elder to bring up Raizel in order to convince them to let him sacrifice himself.
Notwithstanding, both their silence and their conclusion were quickly met with an end.
“...Very well. Give us some time. We must collect as many victims as possible in a single location so that I can launch the missile only to that place.”
<Yuigi and I already took care of that. So I’d like to ask you to deliver for me only the victims within the KSA.>
The audience exchanged flabbergasted looks, for there was no denying that the 3rd Elder was truly willing to help them, but they lost no more time in carrying the modified humans they were safekeeping at KSA.
“Krgh...”
“Krrr...”
At the largest crossroads stood the 3rd Elder, pressing down modified people with his power.
Thanks to the aid from the KSA agents summoned in the middle of a night, the area was set as off-limits, because of which the agents and the 3rd Elder were the only people at the site.
“Now hurry up and get out of here. I’ll hold them.”
RK’s and Yuigi, after relaying the KSA agents not too far from them the evacuation message, turned around to look at the 3rd Elder just as they were about to leave.
“I’m fine. Just go ahead and do it. Consider it my atonement for unleashing such tragedy. Of course, I know that I am still far, far away from paying off for all of my sins.”
Realizing how his face was marred with determination and disconnection from something they could not name, they finally turned away, to give a signal for Tao, who was waiting to launch the missile sampled with Yuigi’s blood, and run towards KSA as if their lives were on the line.
Listening to Tao’s countdown until the missile’s arrival through his communicator, 3rd Elder smiled a bitter smile – a smile suggesting guilt, wholeness, and mysterious relief.
At last the count was downed to zero, and thick pearl-shaded gas flourished from the missile that speared the ground the 3rd Elder was keeping.
(next chapter)
This is what I saved Yuigi & introduced the GC chip for. XD I already planned a scene in which Yuigi steps in and saves the day during the brainstorming of this fic, and at last I got to post it. :D When Yuigi was first introduced in the original webtoon, I was excited about this suggestion that there is and will be something concerning Yuigi and Takio (because it meant Takio will be given more scenes and opportunities; I was kind of disappointed how he was shoved away from the spotlight since the end of the 2nd season of Noblesse). But in the end there was nothing that met my expectations, so I decided to give her a chance in my own fic. And there is a reason why the 3rd Elder had a change of heart, which I’ll talk about in the following chapters. Now that the trouble at Seoul is over, all that is left is Lunark’s battle, as well as the ending chapters of this fic. I shall do my best until this fic meets a grand finale. Thank you so much for staying until me now, and I hope you’d check out the final chapter of this fic as well. :)

Do you think quintessence exposure prolonged Allura’s life and she would’ve lived an unnaturally long life for even an Altean if she’d lived? I think about this question a lot because this girl got blasted by and was exposed to insane amounts of it.
Hi, asennnaa. Ah, those are good questions! I’m not sure I have a perfect answer because I’m still grappling with how to handle some of the holes or contradictions in this show. I do think VLD’s entire universe confirms that infusions of quintessence into a body, as you suggest, can unnaturally prolong a life. But what counts as “enough” quintessence exposure to really make one immortal? Just “how immortal” can Allura get? Because other characters are shown to require multiple infusions of quintessence in order to remain even marginally immortal.
It looks like Zarkon was still aging, even with quintessence infusion. Here is a fresh Zark:
Tumblr media
And here he is again ~10,000 years later with the wrinkly lips, sunken-in cheeks, and big eye baggies that are all standard signs of aging.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Old zarkturtle status achieved.
So despite standard access to quintessence infusions, and even being overcome with quintessence in the rift itself, both he and Haggar seem like they’re fighting a battle with the clock and still losing. Could their lack of immortality and constant need to infuse with quintessence be because they were accosted by rift creatures (so not experiencing “pure” quintessence infusion in the rift)? I suppose it’s possible.
And a lack of ongoing access to pure quintessence might also be part of the entire Galra Empire’s continuous desire to get to purer and larger amounts of quintessence. Because it’s not just power on the line.
Zarkon himself confirms what he hopes to achieve through quintessence in s3:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Desire for immortality is a huge motivator for the entire empire harvesting quintessence in the first place. Zarkon wants to live forever with his friends and family. But oh nu, he’s still aging. And even Lotor?? What is ten or one-hundred-thousand years in the face of a universe that is billions of years old? Is anyone technically immortal in this show? How long can anyone actually live?
An “imperfect-immortality” would also explain the strange reality of Lotor. He is a beautiful boi and is also 10,000 years old as well. Executive Producers Lauren Montgomery and Joaquim Dos Santos suggest in a Season 5 AfterbuzzTV interview that Lotor’s infusion with quintessence in utero results in him aging very, very slowly.
(Here’s the dialogue from the interview if you want it, from around the 13:30 mark:
JDS: It’s pretty safe to say that Lotor’s kind got that Daywalker kind of thing going on.
Interview: —Little vampire—
LM: Being in…in her womb, as [Honerva] was being exposed to all of this quintessence—it’s part of his DNA. It almost puts him on a level with Allura, pretty much who her quintessence is a part of her DNA. So it’s interesting to see.
JDS: And it’s allowed him to stay so beautifully young.
LM: He’s aged at a much slower rate than your average Galra.
Interviewer: So he IS a vampire.
LM: I think all Galra are kinda space vampires.
JDS: They’re kinda space vampires, yeah. Safe to say. You’re getting instead of blood, you’re getting like…planet juice.)
And it just so happens that, in the active plot of VLD, we’re introduced to Lotor at a point in time where he’s aged physically and mentally to the point of, what, maybe early twenties? The canon’s not clear about it. Despite the lack of a canon-backed “mental-to-physical human-age equivalent,” Lotor appears to careen between a tricky mastermind and a boi who’s still a bit embarrassed about his nanny:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(While I tend to think he’s early 20s in physical and mental agility, you could probably even argue Lotor acts like an older teenager still sometimes, lol. Quality eye-roll and pout right here. Does anyone else get, “Mom, shut up” vibes from this gif? And even his idealism, his unshakable belief that simply giving the empire what it wants will result in peace--it lacks a critical foresight about other people experiencing quintessence madness, dangers from within the rift, and the inevitable wars to “control the gates” and such technology. And there’s some things to be said about humans obtaining full brain development around age 25, as the prefrontal cortex, which inhibits impulses and assists with critical decision-making, is the last section to develop in full. So it makes me think, for all his intelligence and schemes, that he’s mentally a bit younger than he’d like to appear. And obviously doesn’t want to appear, considering how embarrassed he is about his nanny in front of his new-found friends, lol.)
But I digress. So just based on the evidence and the extra-canon commentary from EPs, it seems that if we panned out 20,000 years in the future, we might see a significantly aged Lotor, with the deep face lines and lip wrinkles and gaunt cheeks. Because he’s never stopped aging. His body clock is just totally and utterly creeping along, lucky boy.
If you want to trust the extra-canon text, then you might be able to extrapolate that like Lotor’s DNA, Allura’s DNA gives her an extended life. Although unlike slow-age Lotor, Allura appears to have had a more accelerated childhood. She can’t be more than Kova’s 28 decaphoebs (years), given that the season 3 finale shows Allura was born after Kova’s introduction. And yet, unlike Lotor’s strange history of taking forever to grow up, Allura presents as physically mature within a fairly normal timeline.
This would actually suggest that something is a bit weird about Allura’s DNA. And its something that makes her quintessence more intense than even Lotor’s own quintessence signature, if you want to go by the interviews where LM says, “It almost puts him on a level with Allura.”  
So what was this mysterious event?
Allura certainly could still infuse herself or be infused with quintessence to prolong her life, but that wouldn’t prolong her life indefinitely or put her even within range of what’s naturally going on with Lotor’s DNA.
Is there something inherently unique about Allura’s lineage or species, then, that could answer this?
Let’s look at Alteans first. The canon seems oddly contradictory about the natural age of Alteans. Coran is at least 600 years old because he was alive with the Castle of Lions was being built. But yet executive producer LM states that there’s something inherent in Allura’s DNA that makes her even more special than the average person, and even more strangely…Allura’s father, Alfor, doesn’t seem to fall into either of these two categories.
??
Despite Alfor understanding the deep secrets of the universe via Oriande, and having personal direct exposure with unlimited pure quintessence through building and even fighting in Voltron, he ages. Hard.
Here’s Alfor as a young man:
Tumblr media
Here’s Alfor, only decaphoebs later, not long before he died.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So here we have an aging Alfor. And oof, in less than 28 decaphoebs, with no explanation as to why Coran would be doing so well in comparison. (Feel free to speculate!)
So whatever is wrong with Alfor’s life cycle, it would seem to be an isolated incident that not even exposure to Voltron or to the rift could undo. In which case, it’s hard to know if Allura’s DNA would naturally have the same weaknesses from her lineage. If not, then she should at least be able to reach 1,000 years naturally, if the spunky Coran is any measure to go by.
But Alfor did do something that I think places Allura as entirely unnatural and probably the most likely candidate to have a form of true immortality in this entire show:

So right in season 1, episode 1, Coran admits that Alfor has done some pretty wild alchemy. He physically connected Allura’s essence with the essence of Voltron—the single source of self-regenerating, infinite quintessence throughout the whole of the entire universe.
I’m not sure if this alchemical forge-bond would protect Allura from physically aging, but it would suggest that Voltron’s life force and Allura’s life force are intimately tied on the material plane. There is no other canonically shown bond like this in a living person, in the VLD universe. It makes Allura entirely unique as a character and likely helps to explain why she is so consistently over-powered compared to even Haggar/Honerva.
Because unlike ANY other Altean, including Honerva, Allura has an infinite, massive battery of pure quintessence to pull from at will. And it’s tied to her very life force.
I don’t know if a person’s life force being personally connected to Voltron would confer physical immortality, but I do think there’s a lot of evidence to suggest that as long as Voltron exists, Allura’s essence would be preserved within it. And as we saw in season 6, Shiro was capable of interacting with other paladins despite his physical death, because Black Lion had preserved his essence.
So I guess all of this is to say, it seems there would be a lot of reasons for why Allura could live a very long life. It does seem that if she infused herself with quintessence in an ongoing fashion, and she quite often has, then her already long Altean lifespan would become longer. And even in physical death, Allura could still “exist” like s6 Shiro to communicate and interact with the living, in a way that not even her father could.
(Which makes you wonder about that s8 ending with the Lions mysteriously flying off for an unknown reason and Lance’s Altean marks lighting up like a homing beacon, but oof, that’s perhaps another topic.)

Did MJ try to make Spidey retire?
Tumblr media
Short answer: Never when she was in character and never unjustifiably!
The number of times I’ve heard people claim this is unbelievable. I’m going to settle this shit once and for all. Feel free to share this with anyone making these claims.
The simplest way to do this would be to run through things chronologically.
Unless anybody can bring up other examples, off the top of my head I can recall only three times before ‘One More Day’ where MJ floated the idea of Peter retiring.
The first time was in ASM #283. However the important context of this is that Peter himself ��has already resolved to quit as soon as he is done with his latest case involving his friend Flash Thompson.
Tumblr media
However further important context is that Peter has resolved to retire even earlier in ASM #275 and in that issue it was MJ (after learning his origin story) who encouraged him to NOT quit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
An issue later she was back to being against his work as Spider-Man.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
However, many issues around this era (which was before  they got married!) depict MJ flip-flopping on her feelings and the reasons why boil down to her being concerned for Peter’s safety.
At which point why is MJ being out of order in desiring him to  retire? She loves this man and doesn’t want him to be hurt but also understands why he does what he does and it’s that fundamental heroism that is a major reason for why she loves him. This is again summed up in Web of Spider-Man #6.
Tumblr media
Next up we have an example of when MJ didn’t  ask Peter to quit. But people always treat it as though she did so we’re going to address it anyway.
It stems from the clusterfuck that was ‘Maximum Carnage’.
Let’s give you that all-important context.
In Spider-Man Unlimited #1 Pete and MJ are attending Harry Osborn’s funeral. Harry died in chronologically the story right before ‘Maximum Carnage’ so this is a very fresh wound; he died merely days earlier.
Tumblr media
Prior to his death, Harry had been waging months of psychological warfare on the Parkers and even tried to kill Peter. His attempt actually almost killed MJ and his own son Normie. During this whole time Harry’s wife (now widow) Liz Allan had been pushed to her wits end too.
As a result Mary Jane is reluctant to talk to Liz.
Tumblr media
Also, for months now (starting with Carnage’s debut actually) MJ had taken up smoking to cope with the stress of their lives, chiefly her concern for Peter’s well-being. This topic and her behaviour at the funeral gets raised when they return home.
Tumblr media
The talk zeroes in on the risks to Peter’s life and how he and MJ got lucky with Harry. MJ asks Peter to take a break for a week or two.
Not retire permanently.
Not take an indefinite hiatus.
Not even take a break for a month or definitely two weeks.
She literally asks for 7-14 Spider-Man free days so they can de-stress and catch their breaths in the wake of a serious crisis and loss.
Peter promises he will.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately Carnage has just broken free of the authorities and formed a gang.
Tumblr media
For the sake of argument let’s say MJ doesn’t know much about Carnage’s cronies. She just knows he has back up.
However, she absolutely knows about Carnage.
As his name implies, is an incredibly lethal foe. You know Venom, that guy who’s famous for being a bigger badder version of Spider-Man? Yeah Carnage is an even more powerful version of that  guy. Spider-Man one-on-one is physically incapable to defeating him and had to team up with Venom to do it. Even then they actually weren’t strong enough to beat him physically because Carnage is stronger than the pair of them combined!
Making matters worse Carnage’s whole body is extremely durable to injury, with blunt force not being the most effective way of fighting him. His forte is being able to quickly generate a large arsenal of sharp edged weapons from his body; think the T-1000.
This skillset is appropriate given how Carnage prior to obtaining any of these super powers was already a highly violent and sadistic serial killer who killed purely for the pleasure of it. How violent and sadistic? 11 life sentences merely for hi known  crimes. That’s how violent and sadistic. And again, this was when he was just a normal guy.
Oh, and on top of all that he doesn’t trigger Peter’s Spider Sense, making him immeasurably more vulnerable to an already overwhelming powerful foe.
He is possibly the single most physically dangerous Spider-Man villain of all!
This isn’t idle little trivia about the character by the way. It is key to his whole concept and was laid out explicitly in his original appearance. In fact, in that first appearance he was so powerful that Peter was helpless and forced to team up with Venom, who lived to kill him!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even when backed up by Cloak and Dagger, Spider-Man’s ribs take a pounding from Carnage, Shriek and Doppelganger. It is in this injured state he returns home to a concerned and naturally  upset Mary Jane.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
She then begins an argument with Peter when he tells her he plans on going back out there.
Tumblr media
Let’s sum up so far.
MJ has been stressed for months prior to this to the point where she’s started smoking.
Peter and her nearly died mere days ago because their friend went psycho.
Said friend died in front of them.
Their other friend, his wife (who MJ was naturally going to relate more to since they were both the wives of costumes folks) is now a grieving widow.
MJ’s husband promised her he’d take a break for a little while so they can recover a bit.
Her husband then almost immediately went back on that promise.
His risking his life again against a bad guy who’s all but guaranteed to kill him if he fights him alone.
Last time MJ’s husband beat this guy he did it with the help of a powerful nasty piece of work who wanted to kill him. Even then they only just won. That’s how dangerous Carnage is.
This time Peter is fighting him alone, whilst injured, and Carnage has two  people backing him up.
So if it wasn’t a guarantee that Peter was dead meat before, now she might as well get ahead by planning the funeral.
THAT is the context behind MJ’s rage and desire for Peter to not be Spider-Man temporarily  in this story.
Tumblr media
However, noticeably by the end of the story she’s changed her mind!
Tumblr media
We then jump forward to the ‘Clone Saga’, specifically a mini-series called Spider-Man: the Final Adventure.
The context behind this story was that Peter, upon believing he was a clone and that Ben Reilly was in truth the original Peter Parker, had decided to retire and support a pregnant Mary Jane.
To this end they had both left New York but due to a lab experiment involving Peter’s blood a serial killer had mutated into a spiderlike monster. With no other heroes around Peter suits up again as Spider-Man to the dismay of the heavily pregnant Mary Jane who wants him to NOT do that.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Is this MJ being not as understanding as she could be, maybe even selfish to some degree?
Sure.
Is it also Peter being in the wrong too?
Also yes, the story brilliantly points that out.
Tumblr media
But more significantly prior to this story the Parkers had been through Hell.
In less than a year (in-universe):
Peter’s robot parents had turned up pretending to be the genuine articles
They’d betrayed Peter, breaking his heart
Their close friend Harry Osborn had gone mad
Harry and used his knowledge of Peter’s identity to torment the Parkers
Aunt May had gone into a coma
Peter had suffered a mental breakdown
Ben Reilly and other clones had shown up (including clones of Pter’s murdered lover Gwen Stacy)
Aunt May has passed away
Peter was framed for murder
MJ had been targeted for abduction more than once
They’d discovered MJ was pregnant and that the baby might have serious health issues due to Peter’s mutated DNA
Peter was revealed as a clone and had a second mental breakdown
During his mental distress Peter had accidentally smacked MJ across the room
The Jackal had nearly killed everyone on the planet
The Jackal mind controlled Peter into trying to murder MJ
MJ had nearly died due to complications with the pregnancy
That isn’t even everything but all that stuff had been happening across the previous three years of publication alone. And as I said in-universe it was less than a year.
So MJ and Peter had been through a LOT of horrible and stressful things that had put them both on the edge and sometimes over it. Most of that stuff was connected to Peter’s life as Spider-Man that MJ always had mixed feelings about at best. And now after Peter FINALLY retired and their lives were blissfully normal, allowing them to catch their breaths and do some much needed healing, Peter is coming out of retirement…When it isn’t 100% necessary for him to do so.
And all this is happening during MJ’s second or third trimester when she is very obviously heavily pregnant. This often can be a stressful time for pregnant people generally and of course sometimes mood swings occur due to hormones firing all over the place. And MJ is dealing with super powered spider hormones on top of all this. With a baby that is a total lottery because nobody on Earth has ever been pregnant with a half human/half spider powered baby before.
Given that she is dealing with ALL that is it really unreasonable for her to desire for Peter to simply continue to be retired.
She isn’t demanding he give up being a hero.
She is angry and demanding that Peter CONTINUE the choice he already made about giving up.
Which is not the same thing and she was okay with him going back into the hero game after he pregnancy concluded.
Finally we come to the Howard Macke/John Byrne run on Spider-Man where MJ again desired Peter’s retirement.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here is the thing, MJ once again was desiring Peter STAY retired as opposed to demanding he outright quit.
Moreover the Mackie/Byrne era was a period where MJ, Peter and other characters were often written incredibly out of character practically systemically. For example Flash Thompson behind Peter’s back literally made fun of the fact that his girlfriend Gwen Stacy and his wife Mary Jane were dead (at the time MJ’s death was faked by a stalker).
Tumblr media
Peter and MJ were actually written in this reductive way back during this run as part of an editorial policy to break up the marriage.
The thinking at the time was to make their relationship unlikable in order to make people glad for when they got rid of it via killing off Mary Jane and leaving Peter single.
So essentially not only was MJ and Peter out of character back during this era but they were literally being sabotaged so readers would hate them.
Between that and how OOC (out of character) the characterizations were back then this by rights should simply not count in any analysis of the characters.
Now, there have been instanced post-OMD of MJ clearly wanting, asking, demanding, etc. for Peter to quit.
But as with the Mackie/Byrne era (or Black Cat from 2009-2018) these are out of character and should not truly count.
So when written in character and when there are not extenuating circumstances (like pregnancies) involved, Mary Jane would actually not ask Peter to quit and never truly has.

This bond is formed as a result of a chemical reaction in between the carbonyl team of a carbohydrate molecule and also amino team (- NH2) of a non-carbohydrate particle. These are the covalent bonds developed as an outcome of electron sharing among 2 or even more atoms. They are developed as a result of a chemical reaction that might be relatively easy to fix or irreparable. Main bonds are the permanent attractions that are developed among the atoms by the sharing of electrons. The development of a key bond either consumes or releases energy and also the same power is required to damage the key bond. Chemical bonds are the affiliations or organizations in between 2 or more atoms that with each other develop particles of compounds.
Tumblr media
It is one of the most crucial second bond in organic molecules. Hydrogen bond is the greatest additional bond having toughness practically equal to that of covalent bonds.
Welcome To Imuscle Sarms Uk.
Some of the vital additional bonds in biological particles are the following. Both these enzymes are made use of in the living cells throughout the typical turn-over of nucleic acids. Phosphodiester bonds are utilized to affix nucleotides in DNA as well as RNA. Polynucleotide that don't drop in the category of nucleic acids likewise have phosphodiester bond linking the individual nucleotides. It is the key covalent bond that signs up with various nucleotides in a polynucleotide or nucleic acids.

Endocrine hormones control a vast variety of bodily functions consisting of metabolic rate, development as well as advancement, cells function, sex-related feature, reproduction, rest, and mood. This consistently up-dated web page gives a run-through of the artificial processes associated with production of intestinal peptides, and also law of these procedures. Pharmaceutical items which mimic the impacts of endogenous peptide ligands are call peptidomimetics. Some examples of peptidomimetics as well as their equivalent endogenous ligand consist of desmopressin-- vasopressin, octreotide-- somatostatin, and also insulin glargine-- insulin. Medicines which block the receptors for endogenous peptide ligands can be peptide or non-peptide particles.
Whatever You Need To Comprehend About Ostarine.
cycle support supplements can, consequently, be really helpful to choose one of the most encouraging stress, healthy protein resources, as well as even anticipate the activities of the generated peptides. Following incubation of the picked protein with various CEP-harboring Lactobacillus pressures, the released peptides can be identified making use of mass spectrometry. Therefore, peptidomics will certainly be able to develop connections in between the CEP genotype of the stress as well as the profile of peptides they create. Schematic representation of the proposed approach of Lactobacillus strains choice to create bioactive peptides. Cell envelope proteinase genotyping is carried out, complied with by the assessment of the heterogeneity of the produced peptides. One of the most appealing hydrolysate is selected relying on the targeted application.

Depending upon the types, CEPs are either secured to the cell wall or released in the media. zeae are secreted in the extracellular media, while several pressures of Pound. plantarum appear to possess cell wall-bound CEPs (Vukotić, 2016). This function figures out which extraction strategy have to be adhered to. Microbial culture conditions can be enhanced to increase CEP production and extraction yields; this was done for Lactobacillus species such as Lb.
Approaches For Baps Manufacturing By Lactobacillus Species.
The techniques for BAP production using Lactobacillus types are presented, including fermentation and also functionalization of dietary products, removal as well as filtration of hydrolysates or BAPs, and also use purified CEPs. Finally, the current restrictions and also future difficulties for BAP manufacturing by lactobacilli are reviewed. Fermented dairy items declaring useful health and wellness residential properties related to BAPs currently exist. Overall, AMPs use promising choices to common treatments as anti-infectives and immunomodulatory agents with devices of activity which are much less prone to resistance induction contrasted to standard prescription antibiotics.
The glycosidic bonds amongst the sugar residues in cellulose are beta-glycosidic. In an alpha-glycosidic bond, the atoms creating the bond are routed in the very same plane i.e. they equal in stereochemistry. The glycosidic bonds amongst the glucose molecules in starch are instances of the alpha-glycosidic bonds. This kind of link is seen in amino sugars and also glucosyl amines. An instance of glucosyl amines is the nucleoside molecule in which the ribose sugar is affixed to a nitrogenous base through an N-glycosidic bond. leading sarms stackss are the glycosidic bonds in which a sugar moiety is connected to nitrogen of the non-carbohydrate compound.

HydroPeptide skin care offers numerous type of these peptides such as Syn-Ake, which is known as a Botox ®- type peptide due to its crease relaxing buildings. Syn-Ake blocks uptake of Na+ hence loosening up muscle contractions by 82% after two hrs and also lowering creases by 52% after 28 days.
How long is MK 677?
Previous studies in humans demonstrated that daily oral administration of MK-677 in healthy older adults,8 GH-deficient adults9 for 4 weeks, and GH-deficient children10 for 7 days increased serum GH, IGF-I, and IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-3 concentrations.
Significantly, lots of AMPs are created as non-active forerunners requiring proteolytic bosom to come to be energetic. Their regulation is therefore not only based on their own expression yet likewise on the wealth of suitable proteases. Antimicrobial peptides, also known as host defense peptides, are brief as well as usually favorably charged peptides found in a wide variety of life forms from bacteria to people. A lot of AMPs have the capacity to kill microbial virus straight, whereas others act indirectly by regulating the host defense systems. Against a background of rapidly enhancing resistance advancement to standard prescription antibiotics around the globe, initiatives to bring AMPs into professional usage are increasing.
It is likewise a type of ester bond however involves two ester linkages. The bonds between the glycerol and also the fats in a triglyceride are the examples of ester bonds. In the process of making a peptide bond, the carboxylic group sheds hydrogen as well as oxygen atoms while the amino team only loses its hydrogen. It is a covalent bond formed as an outcome of a chain reaction in between the amino team of one amino acid and also the carboxylic team of one more amino acid. In beta-glycosidic bonds, the two bond-forming atoms are routed in opposite airplane having different stereochemistry.

Myoxinol prevents contraction (pre-synapse) for approximately 254 hours and also decreased wrinkles by 25% after 3 weeks. Endocrine peptides are the proteinaceous subset of the hormones created by the glands of the endocrine system. The significant endocrine glands include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, hypothalamus, gastrointestinal tract and also adrenal glands.

In animals, AMPs are located largely within granules of neutrophils and also in secretions from epithelial cells covering skin and mucosal surface areas (Boman, 1995; Hancock as well as Chapple, 1999). In most cases, AMPs are inscribed in clusters in the genome as well as co-expressed, leading to several AMPs gathering at a solitary website.
Several AMPs are presently being reviewed in scientific trials as novel anti-infectives, yet likewise as brand-new medicinal agents to modulate the immune response, promote wound recovery, and stop post-surgical bonds. The overall evidence-base connected with collagen supplements is limited. The best evidence is related to skin wellness and reductions in joint pain from workout or osteo arthritis. Although specific kinds of collagen are located in our muscles, there isn't much proof as to whether supplementing with collagen enhances muscular tissue strength or growth. Chemical bonds are pressures of attraction that keep together various atoms to create molecules. This bond is associated with maintaining the tertiary structure of healthy proteins as well as assisting the protein folding. Although it is a covalent bond, it is gone over under the heading of secondary bonds since it is involved in maintaining the greater frameworks of organic molecules.
