You know those ABO AU fics where Jason and the Bats are either still at odds, or they've reconciled to a certain degree but still hold each other at arms length? But then they unwittingly stumble across the fact that Jason is an Omega, and basically kidnap him back home and suddenly everything is sunshine and daisies?

I need like, an entire rec of fics where that very adamantly does not happen.

I need fics where Jason is unable to reconcile their sudden acceptance with the sorry state of their relationship before they found out, and their absolute lack of effort to fix it beforehand.

But most importantly, I need fics where he simply cannot stomach to have Bruce at his throat after he literally cut it open.

Or whatever.

#maybe it just my trauma lens #but something about the dubious consent in abo fics in general just hits different when its jason #in the worst way #like #omega jason todd is my pleasure #nothing guilty about it #but i literally cannot read fics with this particular trope without physically cringing #its a no from me #such an ick #and such a waste of perfectly good angst #but maybe thats just me #idk #just ignore me #jason todd #red hood #fanfiction #fanfics #alpha/beta/omega dynamics #omegaverse #*its

Okay so I just want to say that the RS arc would be so much better if rather than just having Celebi teleport them to their happy ending, if it transferred them back to their arrival and they had to redo the final battle but without Ruby trying to do everything on his own.

oh yeah that'd be a way more interesting way to do it! i think you can tell that there were constraints in wrapping up the rs arc after spending three whole volumes continually building up to the final battle so it makes sense that the celebi ex machina is as abrupt as it is but it is cool to consider an alternative fleshed out take on it!

#alpha-garden #at the same time there's good mileage with ruby needing to go through a literal hell timeline for his personal growth to finally kick in #he appreciates feefee's beauty and learns genuine empathy so i guess if you read the story's primary struggle as being a psychological one #then ruby's 'reward' for overcoming his internal struggles is to be sent to a more ideal timeline #i've not considered reading pokespe through a more emotive lens instead of a straight action one but it could be pretty illuminating! #(cold sweat as i realize i am reinventing detective/romantic for the millionth time lmao)

Hmmmm how to say. There’s a certain peerhood of character dynamic that comes from two people in a work being both girls/both boys/both neither. That isn’t to say that life isn’t fluid or that you can’t build a dynamic between male and female characters that ignores this divide.

To take an example at random—MP100. Emi, Asagiri, Tsubomi all interact with Mob as Girls. They’re foreign, agitating or destabilizing elements in Mob’s world (the audience’s world) as non-peers. His interactions with them are always in the context of Gee I’m Talking to a Girl. Mezato is an edge case but still Girl. Mob ends up misinterpreting her journalistic curiosity as interest in the Divine Tree arc, which only makes sense if she’s viewed as Girl before Classmate. Tome, on the other hand, is fully a Peer character. She’s Mob’s closest friend from what we see in-canon, they go on what he describes as ‘dates’, but she’s so far out of the Girl social role that Shigeo never associates her with the fresh intrigue of the Girls. Instead she’s a comforting, reassuring force on the story in the way that Reigen and Ritsu are. She even steps into Mob’s shoes for the oneshot! There are gendered roles and non-gendered roles and actual gender doesn’t have to define them. Tome is a girl and not a Girl.

So, it’s interesting to play around with his characters’ genders can shape even non-romantic dynamics, or how dynamic is itself gender. People who are similar feel kinship. A tomboy will hang out with boys on the playground or a kid bullied for being a sissy will be part of the girl group. That gets complicated when genders bend around in-story.

Specifically DGM Alma Karma was born from the transmigration of a woman’s soul into an an artificial male-assigned homunculus. Her/his/their key dynamic is with Kanda as two-of-a-kind. Both experiments, both exorcists, both (assigned) boys growing up together. The sense of sameness and equivalency is important to that relationship. They have no one else in the world like them except each other.

PastKanda’s dynamic with PastAlma also fits into a strictly gendered structure: Kanda is a brooding gruff man searching for a lost cheerful kind woman. They’re the action hero/deadwife cliché. Kanda has abstracted PastAlma away from any semblance of personality because he doesn’t even know her, he just has a vague impression. The woman is separate, unknowable, distant, and though Hoshino is a lady herself, the trope is a misogynistic one that relies on the idea that women are mysterious creatures rather than human beings with thoughts and dreams.

By then transposing the somewhat gendered relationship of childhood friends-twins-equals-peers on to the irrevocably gendered trope of sadman/deadwife, Hoshino then challenges the way that gender informs the whole story. Kanda’s view on Alma is wholly interior. Alma is himself reflected, openly expresses what Kanda feels and hides, is the one person who truly knows and understands him. Then his view on PastAlma is entirely exterior; she is an inscrutable ghost, an invisible gap in his life. Kanda has idealized PastAlma and resented Alma for a decade only to find out that they’re the same person. Which begs the questions: did he think of them differently just because he thought Alma was a boy? Was PastKanda even a man? Do we the audience read PastAlma as opaque just because she’s a woman, where Alma is such a lively screen presence? Would Alma present as a woman if she weren’t trying to go incognito, or did they genuinely identify with the boyhood he was assigned?

Who knows. Social pressures always weigh on the edges of a story. Even if they’re not obvious, they inform how events unfold and how audiences interpret them. Gender (patriarchy) is such a pervasive hierarchy that a writer/reader’s got to consider how it influences plot events. Alternately, ignoring it has got to be a deliberate choice and you’ve got to think hard to keep gender from sneaking into the reading (eg a perfectly neutral interaction between girl characters will read as misogynist between a girl and a guy).

#kelsey rambles #brought to you by a post I should reblog talking about how Alma Karma is both feminine and masculine #but only in the ways that clash. their rough rage and destruction is their womanhood while their sociability and their grace is masculine #character study aside Alma plays the role of both a girl and a boy in the series. Kanda’s view of them (the lens through which we watch) #is defined by thinking of Alma as A Boy Like Me and by thinking of PastAlma as Divine Feminine #complicating it further. purely from a trope standpoint you can’t unpick one from the other #also. regret to say that I think it’s an important aspect of Kanda’s character that he only finds out about Alma at the very last second #he goes through that entire arc believing Alma to be a) a guy b) a stranger #or going to MP100 I see a lot of girl Mob which is great adorable interesting canonically resonant #but I also see a lot of girl Mob and boy Teru which feels so at odds with their entire thing of Teru being Mob’s foil/reflection/equal/peer #girl Mob must compare herself to alpha bitch fashionista girl Teru. just as guy Mob has to compare himself to suave bully boy Teru #their entire dynamic is rooted in comparison so you can’t just have them be different #or if you do have girl mob and boy teru then you’ve got to create a reason for them to view each other as competitors #given that both have extremely gendered worldviews and attitudes (mob’s idolization/teru’s precocious dating)
