people who think will byers hates himself for being gay when will byers is one of the very few characters on the show that has refused to change himself to fit anyone else's idea of what he should be despite the fact that people, including his own father, have been harassing, bullying, and abusing him for it literally his entire fucking life are just...... so weird.

will's entire POINT is that he will survive and brave whatever you throw his way against all odds and come out on the other side of it still clutching on to his sense of self and hope that tomorrow will be a better day. the entire point of his character is that he loves what he loves without apology or shame.

he sings "that weird song he loves" in the middle of hell because it reminds him of his brother and offers him comfort in a place where there is none. he creates art because he loves it and doesn't care if it isn't something boys do, then he gifts it to his friends because he loves them and wants them to know it, too. he loves dnd and writes campaigns and dresses up for them because they bring him joy and he just wants to spend time with his friends even if they think they're "too cool" for it now.

he knows that sometimes it's harder than it should be to be gay in a homophobic society and has been harassed for that literally his entire fucking life it's LITERALLY how they introduce him to us not even twenty minutes into this fucking show and YET !!!!!!! he doesn't back away from that. ever.

he gets picked on for his clothes, but he doesn't change them. he gets called names, but he doesn't make any attempt to conform. his best friend, the boy that he's in love with and his very first friend ever, tells him it isn't his fault that he doesn't like girls and shamefully asks him if he really thought they were going to play games together in his basement for the rest of their lives and never get girlfriends, and what does will do?

he says yeah. i guess i did. i really did.

will faces all of that and goes to a new place where he has the golden opportunity of a clean slate, and what does he do? when assigned to do a presentation on his hero... he picks alan turing of all people. and when his brother later on tells him that he loves him no matter what, essentially giving him the It's Okay To Be Gay I Love You So Much And Always Will talk, still there is no denial on will's part here either.

will has NEVER, EVER denied being gay. he has NEVER tried to change that part of himself. he has ALWAYS stood tall and braved another day even when it was scary and hard. he has ALWAYS remained true to himself even though that has only ever made his life that much harder.

he said that sometimes he feels like a mistake for being so different from other people, but that being loved and accepted makes him feel like he isn't one at all and like he's better for being different and that gives him the courage to fight on.

literally what the fuck are you guys on about when you talk about will being self-hating for being gay. where is the canonical evidence for that? and more than that, why are you so keen on throwing away all of his acts of bravery and the sheer fucking strength of character that he's had since the very beginning? it would've been so much easier for him to conform, to be the "man" that everyone has always pushed him to be, but he doesn't ever do that. he stays true to himself no matter what. so, again, where the hell are these self-hating receipts?!

#will #will byers #byler #HE LITERALLY DID HIS PRESENTATION ON ALAN TURING IN THE FUCKING 80S WHEN HE HAD A CLEAN SLATE!!!!!! HE WAS A NOBODY AT LENORA!!!!!! #AND HE STILL DID IT ON ALAN FUCKING TURING!!! HE SAID THIS IS MY HERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #HE WAS BULLIED SINCE FUCKING BIRTH FOR BEING GAY AND HE STILL DOES NOT SHY AWAY FROM IT!!!! HE LOVES WHAT HE LOVES! #AND /THAT/ IS WILL BYERS' STRENGTH!!!

If anyone is wondering what Buck’s “like sea monkeys” comment is about:

Sea monkeys are the advertising name for brine shrimp which were sold basically as a sorta toy where you get three pooches (one of the eggs, one of nutrients, one of dye) and you pour it in and then you get these weird looking creatures

But the reason for bucks comment is that sea monkeys are actually an artificial breed made from hybridisation and they hatch from eggs that can remain dormant for years until exposed to water

So yeah Eddie😌like sea monkeys😌

Let the man cook next time🫡

If you were Whitney's baby mama do you think he'd cut off his former group of friends cause he doesn't want people who have slept with you getting near you now?

Hmm this is a good question.

I think he’d blow them off more while you’re pregnant so he can take care of you and look out for you. When he can’t he has some of his friends keep an eye out for you from a distance but they can’t touch you.

Now I would probably show my jealousy when pregnant bc I don’t want his ex near him, he might kick them out of the group if you nag him enough or he sees how much it affects you.

After you have the baby he cuts off everyone. Now it’s just the three of you. You both are his responsibility now and he has to man up, which means no more long nights out with friend and drinking.

I feel like there is a joke to be made about Light Yagami being born on Anti-Bullying Day but I don't know what it is...

#also this may only be a canadian thing #but everyone wears pink today to say bullying is bad #is he trying to ensure he will not get any mean comments on this the day of our lord and saviour kira's birth #??? #light yagami #death note #p

Dear everyone who likes to bully people over petty fandom things: I hope your pillows are never cool and your nose is always stuffy. I hope the Starbucks baristas get your name wrong in embarrassing ways. I hope the ice cream machines break at every McDonalds you go to. Maybe someday your conscience will catch up to you, and I hope it haunts you like the telltale heart, thrumming beneath your floorboards, beating a constant reminder of the hours you spent pointlessly putting down the things that people love with your poison-dripping hate. Fight me in the Denny's parking lot.

#to be clear i was not bullied or anything. #this just sprang forth fully formed from my head like the birth of athena.

Robin buys Steve a team Edward shirt as a gag gift.

Steve doesn’t get it despite the fact that many of his students were obsessed with Twilight, and there’s been a few arguments between middle schoolers he’s had to break up when things get unnecessarily heated.

Steve thought it was funny because someone *cough* Eddie himself *cough* had tried to convince the others he was brought back as a vampire. Nevertheless, the shirt goes forgotten until one laundry day Steve is looking for something to wear. He puts the shirt on and goes about his day.

Later, he’s folding laundry when Eddie walks into the room and gives Steve the most bewildered look.

“Dearest, what in the ever living fuck are you wearing?”

Steve looks down “oh I forgot. Robin got me this awhile ago as joke.”

Eddie launches into tirade about how vampires DO NOT sparkle. Steve just laughs, because he wouldn’t expect a middle-aged man to care about the accuracy of the monsters in a teen movie, but of course the nerd he chose to spend the rest of his life with does.

#have whatever this is #seeing Gerard Way in that teem Edward shirt birthed this somehow #steddie #eddie munson #steve harrington #Steve having to deal with teenagers who were obsessed with twilight just makes sense #he has a special fondness for the one kid who just quietly keeps to themselves but hisses at bullies #Steve also hissed at people in middle school that’s just a fact

#“Dude stfu. Everyone knows I'm the best at stealing. Let's go already.” #Odysseus why tf does it say long-suffering there???👀 as if a compliment from Diomedes is the worst thing in the world? #Ody you're my idiot but why are you so fucking mean to him?!?! He literally compliments you and you bitch at him! #And Diomedes has this 'Notice me senpai' energy and it just SUCKS seeing him get treated like this. #Odysseus is my favorite but this isn't cool :( like he yells at Agamemnon but that's because Agamemnon calls him a coward. #Diomedes has literally done nothing to him. there's no reason to yell at him like this. #Just because Diomedes is a nepotism baby who Athena liked since birth doesn't mean you gotta bully him like this. #Mad rambles #shot by odysseus #sorry I was rereading and I got worked up :'D #odysseus #diomedes #fuck it. I don't mind getting crucified right now. woiehfas I'm right! This WAS mean >:( Bad Blorbo! Bad!

What's your interpretation that the left hand of cleric beast is much bigger that the right?🤔

Well, like I've pointed out before, the only explanation I am seeing is blood ministration being done on the left arm!

However, this might get a little more interesting with the Cleric Beasts, because Emilia is also one, yet her arms are symmetrical!

My closest guess to why it happened is because of something Healing Church has been known to do with female bodies. Namely - do some sort of surgery/manipulation/operation on them in order to change their blood type into 'holy blood' one, which they are able to share with the hunters!

English localization team had to use term "groomed" instead of whatever this actually says, and this is definitely going into top 10 of my biggest headaches with mistranslations! As you can see from the Japanese script retranslation ( x ), the meaning is more literal, implying a procedure. I always felt like it would be a surgery on bone marrow, since this is where blood cells are produced, and doctors in Bloodborne could have learned to alter them into having impossible type of blood!

So, as a female cleric, Amelia might have had her first communion with the holy blood as a Blood Saint, instead of generic blood ministration treatment like apparently everyone else has!

I am still not sure why female staff specifically was the Blood Saints, since apparently blood vials are not menstrual blood, as we can learn thanks to Adeline:

Maybe it could have something to do with menstrual cycle, though, because of the whole cycle of moon vs menstrual cycle thing, and Laurence being affiliated with Moon Presence, and then Micolash also stealing his swag and basing his own institution on:

I'd say this is either some sort of deeply rooted superstition within the setting, or in fact, yes, the holy blood links to the Great Ones who put HELLA importance on blood and birth, so being biologically female is crucial for that link to take intended effects.

Ludwig is an interesting case, though! He was SUPPOSED to have blood ministration too, like Laurence or Cleric Beast of the Bridge! Why would not the first Healing Church hunter and the HEAD of their hunters do something so crucial? Especially since Cleric Beast of the Bridge drops the Sword Badge with which you buy Hunter Chief Emblem, implying that this beast is currently what Ludwig used to be? But his left arm is not bigger. In fact, it is even smaller. So I am trying to think of the variants of what had happened here:

1) Ludwig somehow merged with an actual horse, so his anatomy is simply no longer judged through the same lense

2) Ludwig is a leftie, and this is where he holds his Holy Moonlight Sword, so its effect would be a "remedy" for possible arm deformations

3) Ludwig is not a simple beast, but the one with a lot of Kin features, so his anatomy is simply no longer judged through the same lense (+horses are primarily herbivores, and Kin is associated with the flora in the setting, so maybe that's why he went horsegirl mode instead of getting something weak like antlers lol)

4) Ludwig is trans and actually was the first to get Blood Saint treatment rather than regular blood ministration (+we take Adeline's blood from her right arm, and notice that his right arm is a little bigger)

5) Ludwig is a cis man and was the first biological male who attempted to receive Blood Saint treatment instead of regular blood ministration, but that didn't take the intended effect because the gods Be Like That in the setting + his unusual visions and mutation might be the side effect of that and that's why Healing Church stopped doing that with male organisms. Basically, if a male attempts becoming a living factory for the holy blood, it will go "wrong".

6) Combinations of the above points

.....Okay, that went a little unfocused from the initial topic, but you see my points here! Thank you for the ask!

_________________

Bonus ideas:

- Whereas Ludwig is holding the Holy Moonlight Sword in his left hand, Amelia also is grasping the Gold Pendant in her left hand. So maybe nothing was special about her, but holding a special item in the "effected" hand will remedy the asymmetry effect, and had Amelia not been doing that all the time, she'd be asymmetrical too?

- Amelia using recolored model for Bell-Ringing Woman for her appearance might be not accidental, but a fuel for the headcanon that she has Pthumerian blood too, and Pthumerians might simply evolve differently, or traditionally have different way they' go for the blood communition. Off the top of my head, look at Loran Clerics having same sized arms:

Basically, I can answer why Cleric Beasts and the huntsmen have asymmetrical arms, but not why people like Emilia and Ludwig broke the trend despite being the first in line to have blood ministration normally... Because I just have too many ideas, and my preference usually falls towards the most logical ones, but when there are equally logical ideas I become helpless :')

#bloodborne #cleric beast #vicar amelia #ludwig the accursed #bloodborne theory #bloodborne headcanons #use later #ask replies #i actually like the idea that part of ludwig's suffering is just great ones going 'bitch I said I wanted someone with MENSES for this one' #laurence would also not be above using someone as a lab rat but to his honor he clearly used HIMSELF as a lab rat as well dfsjhfdh #but Ludwig being actually the first Blood Saint is interesting! #he could share blood vials with his own knights right on the battlefield #i am just.. Basically Laurence and Micolash (ESPECIALLY Micolash) deeply resenting not being female works sooo well #I had that whole ass post about how creepy Micolash grew about themes of menstruation and birth and female organism in general #and like it scared myself so much that I legit had bone-chilling fear after reading my own shit that night fdshfhds #meanwhile trans Micolash would 10000% lack genital dysphoria and only want things like his former voice or breasts gone #the deeper you dig into bb lore the more you realize men of this setting tend to be really weird towards womanhood and all attached to it #it is just something I dislike to address because toxic fans tend to use it to bully Gehrman fans and tell cis men that BB is 'not for them #but it IS there too so #WHY I AM TAKING NORMAL ASS ASKS TOO FAR #no but when will it end? lol

Personally, when it comes to brokenstar, I hate the whole “born evil punishment!!!” Enough that we just. Deleted him. His name is Pinetail now.

Instead we decided to bring somebody who didn’t get the villainy they deserved out of the woodwork- good Ol’ Foxheart.

Do you plan on doing anything with her?

I am actually very fond of the idea that Brokenstar was a curse made manifest; but we abide by the shape of our form. If a curse is manifesting as a person, then a person it must be. No one is born evil, ergo not even the concept of pain and rage can be unsoothable if it's made of soft flesh.

So my Brokenstar isn't born evil; he's born angry. Short tempered and sensitive, molded by clan culture and its philosophy of might-makes-right. It was only radical change in the form of Bluestar helping to dethrone another Clan's tyrant that could stop him.

And most importantly, it's righting the ancient wrong of SkyClan's destruction that finally brings him peace.

But anyway! Foxheart!

She's remaining as a supporting character in the redux of Yellowfang’s Secret; Brokenstar's Cataclysm. Raggedstar's first deputy and generally a nasty individual. Her role is kinda reduced because the main character isn't Yellowfang anymore, but she is there.

Her son is Wolfstep! He is no longer her brother because the timeline is being stretched out. He's from a single kit litter and she was not heavily involved in his life. Deadbeat mom <3

They actually have a name tradition. Houndstar is their ancestor, he is the father of Mousewing, she gave birth to Foxheart, who had Wolfstep, and then the tradition ended with Badgerfang.

Him and Fernshade had another kitten at the lake but couldn't bring themselves to continue the tradition; Ivytail. Blackstar's niece.

#The story doesn't call for a bully because the point is how clan culture creates Brokenstar #And the choices he makes with Runny #Yellowfang’s Secret is... honestly one of my disliked SEs #I LOVE the glance we get into ShadowClan but the whole book is basically 'kick yellowfang for 1000 pages' #And she doesn't have her sass so she barely fights back. It's hard to read #She opens the book up though with Broken's birth #But that is her only POV chapter. The rest is told through Broken and Runny #Brokenstar's Cataclysm #Bonefall Rewrite

milgram is pretty fucked up on yuno. imagine you never actually killed a human person and only had abortion because you rightfully didnt want to give birth and suddenly you get thrown into this weird prison and get fucked mentally because of strange bystanders who you never even met.

#milgram #yuno kashiki #like ig that abortion may be controversial but when put in the same category as a serial harvester #or bullies #its kinda yeah #unless she qctually gave birth and ended up killing that child then yeah thats a diff conversation #but cmon #abortion?????

I think one of the most disparraging moments of being a Brit and recieving memes from the U.S.A, was VeggieTales. Hearing that it was some hilarious childrens' show, seeing it was on netflix, booting it up, and finding out that it's verses from the bible near verbatim, with singing vegetables that preach to you.

I felt like I was in a horror movie, where everybody was laughing and clapping along to a TV full of static. Except, instead of static, there was a Christian Cucumber.

#I was not raised Christian. My father is ex protestant and my mother carried on the century-long line of druidism with us #I knew maybe two devout Christians growing up. #And one was the daughter of the Rev XD #It was strange to see people wearing cross necklaces. Happened maybe twice? 'are you actually Christian?' #-wheeze- I got bullied once for saying 'christian name' instead of 'birth name'. You would get bullied for being christian so hard that- #-non-christians got bullied too.
