#but also there's. twins now??? huh????

[welcometogrouchland]

I love dipping my toes back into comics, remembering all the C and D list characters I love and getting that sense of intrigue again, sliding into headcanon territory like "MAN if they just made a series about this they'd totally have me hooked again!". Then I continue reading about the state of current comics (i.e where those C and D list characters are rn and what the state of canon is) and think about the amount of complexity and set up you'd need to even get halfway close to the perfect vision in your head and how impenetrable current comics are so you wouldn't even know where to start with catching up...

And then I'm once again relieved that I'm not caught up with comics anymore and am simply backreading now irrelevant comics at a glacial pace

#ramblings of a lunatic #posts inspired by me catching up (via osmosis) the current state of flash comics #s/o to irey west #you could have such a good turn as impulse if DC would let you your brother and bart progress (according to the vision in my head!) #same thing w/ the current superman run that's apparently on going #i am Very intrigued by the premise of lex apparently a) leaving his company to clark and b) wanting to team up w/ superman #as well as whatever Marilyn Moonlights deal is (SHE SEEMS SO COOL FROM HER INITIAL TEASER APPEARANCE) #but i simply cannot look past the convoluted state of the superfam rn with how present they seem to be in current comics #again there's 17 yr old jon (im glad you're bisexual but sorry that (age up) happened to you) #but also there's. twins now??? huh???? #they're revamping power girl???? huh #it's just. too much. it intimidates me #maybe my current goal will just be to keep reading gww ms marvel til the romance bores me (bc i think it gets romance heavy after a while?) #and then try and finally finish sandman (i like the anthology stand alone issues more than the story ones tho tbh...) #but also idk man. comics have so many things i love and they've been on my brain recently but trying to enjoy them at this moment #nigh impossible. i do not know where to start

its actually so crazy how the writing team was like “lets make grief and loss important themes for alisaie as a character” so in BCOB she learns about making peace with her grandfather’s death to live life on her own terms, for her own sake. she goes out herself to explore eorzea. and then emery dies while shes powerless to do anything about it. and then she almost dies believing that urianger was going to betray her and the scions. and then she watches the same tower her brother was supposed to be in get bombed not knowing if he escaped in time. and then she watches the people she loves be picked off one by one, physically present but spiritually gone, while being powerless to help them. and then she loses contact with alphinaud (again) not knowing if he’s okay. if he’s safe. and then the next time she sees him immediately its his limp body being carried by a stranger. and then she begs the warrior of light to not leave her alone. and then she watches tesleen die powerless to do anything about it. and then she watches the warrior of light nearly succumb to becoming a sin-eater, risking dooming not only the fate of the first, but the source. and then she finds the cold bodies of licinia and her sister, ultimately more victims of their despair than anything else, people who she’d been trying to help. and then s

#why do they keep DOING THIS TO HER #does anyone else obsessively think about this or am i just fucking crazy #her begging the wol to not leave her alone and then later on in ew again going to the wol and being like #'so hey things are crazy right now but please dont do some stupid self-sacrifice thing' #like basically 'dont kill yourself. stay alive please' #i just think a lot about how like #not in an infantilizing way #but the twins start the story at 16 #and are like 17-18 throughout the end #id say shb/ew #and its like. Wow you guys really are going through it huh #to be fair im also the same age learning that this is just what being 16-17-18 is like #but . jesus #NOT TO UNDERMINE ALPHINAUD EITHER #its just crazy how both of the twins are like #so committed to their goals and their ideals #and they keep being like kicked down #and in alisaies case shes like No fuck off I love everyone #and alphinaud is also like beat with the trauma stick 26787422 times #but is like 'that sucked but i still believe the world has a lot of good in it' #like FUCK YES LITTLE GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Karen: LMAO every guy I meet reminds me of my big brothers that's so funny except if Paul is already my brother and you're also a brother that's a bit awkward, huh Hot bartender: THATS MOVING REALLY FAST AND I LIKE YOU AS A PERSON BUT - Karen: having my brothers date would be SO WEIRD Hot bartender: Well on the bright side I literally cannot speak more than five words to him so we aren't dating because he's so cute

(Everyone else: that is somehow the most depressing bright side we never want to hear)

#my characters #oops i fell in love #I just think its really funny how i view so many of the cast as either the only child or #somehow still the only child but with twin cousins that he grew up with somewhat like siblings but is older than them #and then THESE TWO LOSERS (beloveds) are definitely younger siblings #there is no way Karen developed her personality without the help of older brothers #there is also a very funny and agonizing thing where she is super single cause she can't view a guy as more than a brother #she meets an asshole and is like wow just getting huge brother vibes from him wtf #and meets the nicest man possible and is like HOW IS HE ALSO LIKE A BROTHER I WILL NEVER LOVE ROMANTICALLY #and she has all of the guy friends and its very clear if they were interested she has long since friendzoned them #but its fine because they all are also convinced that shes exactly what it would be like to have a brother #so its fine its all good no one really agonizes over not romancing her and she just as a found family in everyone #hi my name is salmon and you may recall my feheroes experience where i want to give a certain male all of the siblings #the sibling adopter extraordinaire ? yeah thats basically karen now that i think about it #you know one time at work at my first job there was a girl who had a crush on a guy and we all worked the same shift a lot #and one day she was whining because he was so friendly to me and he looks at the girl straight faced and says #ITS BROS BEFORE HOES aint that right and im like uh huh sure thats exactly right #and later i told him i really wanted to know where she went wrong because i had a crush on him in school until he opened his mouth #and hes like yeah sucks to wanna date me you made the right choice #and i just ..... will never forget that weird guy #he saw me in a hoodie once and goes NO WAY I HAVE THE SAME ONE and then makes sure he brings it in next time we work together to prove it #he was like an annoying younger brother to me and i thought it was very funny that apparently i too am a sibling to him #i might be adopted and i might be biased but i think everyone could use an adopted sibling that they dont live with #thats a special bond ok im just sayin #also sorry its so late tonight i had some uhhhhhh problems haha

li tianxi blaming herself for her parents not divorcing and because they don't things escalate past boiling point. blaming herself in the first place for the tensions between them because she has needs and not everyone is willing to try and meet her with them. li tianxi choosing to look away and not say what she sees anymore so this won't repeat. but in the process just ending up enabling tianchen as he spirals down and down.

li tianchen blaming himself because he wanted to fix things for his mum and do what she couldn't but instead he gets her dead. and tianchen just wants to protect tianxi like he failed to protect his mum but he doesn't try to actually *understand* her. so instead his efforts eventually drive her away because there's only so much she's willing to take. she didn't want to be 'protected' like this.

they've both lost their parents and tianxi doesn't want anyone to suffer as she has whilst tianchen wants everyone else to suffer as he has. everyone except tianxi.

wanting to protect someone but not giving them the agency in the decision. in whether they even want to be 'protected' in this way.

#me as always linking it back to the shiguang dynamic with that last sentence huh #link click #link click spoilers #sth again about cycles of abuse. tianxi the eternal victim. tianchen the victim at first but needing the control to never be a victim again #calling it 'hunter' bc that's what he's been told and it's what he clings to bc if not he's just another wild hurt beast #I don't know how much is intentional but the way that the twins' roles are gendered is kinda interesting? #not totally sure if I'm a fan (esp w/ what happened to ltx) but I can see what I think it's getting at #when they had ltc refusing the phone call bc 'no one in the family is mentally ill' + qj's arc having those toxic masculinity vibes #qj taking the role that li fan originally held so even when the twins escape they never actually do. they're held in these roles. #also. it's interesting that ltx was always considered disabled before anything else happened. + then the mutism was the trauma response. #like. her very existence she felt was the cause of tension and she had that knowledge but wanted them to stay as this happy family #that probably never even existed. + like I said not a huge fan of how her chara was treated but she represented hope for a reason #she had that hope within her back then and held onto it until now. it could only die with her. and that's why tianchen lets go. #shiguang daili ren spoilers

migi n dali just keeps getting better. ep 10 was crazyyyyy i was on the edge of my seat the entire time, and if i wasnt it was just so sweet or hilarious. this show is the perfect blend of emotions honestly.

#migi to dali #looooved how they did the twin reveal. they just randomly both show up. #i actually rewinded because i noticed it was migi at the table and then right after dali responded. and i was like. huh. are they switching #rlly fast or something. but no. they were just both there lmaooo #AND MARUTAAAA AAAAGH #karen and maruta was so cute actually. #and i love love love that hes their friend now. they did it so well and believable. like thats just a kid. #i rlly like how the kids are written in this. like even if theyre super genius or whatever. they never actually are #but the other kids think so. theyre smart in the kiddie sense. but their reactions and thoughts are still very childlike #and i think its. so sweet how dali is still scared and unsure of how to move on from all the shit that happened to them #but migi is there for him every step of the way... wah... ;-; #also cannot forget my boy akiyama. always ride n die for his bestie hitori(s) #AND THE BE BIRDS.... so good. love these strange furry children. #cant believe we still have 3 episodes. i feel so blessed #tedpost #tedtalks #next ep we'll finally learn abt metry. so excited.

[givemewallywestorgivemedeath]

I gotta figure out what the ages are because Irey, Jai and Maxine are all eight. Tai is the same age as Irey and Keli is... 9.

Bobby and Cerdian are dead so if Adams wants to bring them back then he can really bring them back at any age. BUT! Saying that, Bobby would realistically be younger than Lian and older than the West twins (11?) and Cerdian was five years younger than Lian (putting him at 8 ish). Mar'i doesn't exist so if he wants to bring in an alt Mar'i he can really do whatever.

Osul-Ra and Otho-Ra are 12. Maps is 12-13.

Lian is ... 13? 12? 11? She's young but she's also definitely a preteen.

Age gap of five years from oldest to youngest. But wow, that's a young team. I mean... wow. Wally was fighting crime at ten and Dick was fighting crime at nine so it's not unprecedented. But jfc that is young.

#also because im pretty sure the kent twins and Maps won't be on the team #so i think its gonna be a bunch of children and Lian tbh #WOW THAT'S A YOUNG TEAM #Wow uh... Adams is already hinting at this now huh? uhm. so lets see. he has the OMW arc and he just finished writing that. #then hed throw in a baby arc or two because thats his process #so hes got six months of content there #i don't want this to be long term plans and i also don't know if Adams would he talking about it in interviews and signings and twitter #if he wasn't actively planning this #but in six months those kids are still gonna be 8 and thats SO YOUNG #do i think this is the next big arc after OMW (after a few baby breather arcs)? maybe #oh shit right the baby. the baby arc. would the baby arc be a baby arc??? man i don't even know #maybe #i could see the twins getting away with more shit when their parents are preoccupied with a baby #idk man #this is so young

rolling around Ingo fully remembering Emmet and being distraught over 1. forgetting him and 2. being unable to return (yet) and Khan having to make the choice between walking away and ignoring him (preferred method) or hanging out and commiserating what it's like to forget that your siblings existed and having no way to get back to them (the whole "dead sister" thing can stay under wraps still tho)

#khan a. #unintentional link between them on my part #bc khan was initially designed as just a pokemon oc but then he ended up in hisui for the funsies and he was just supposed to be #an older brother figure for akari except he developed into having an actual history and stuff #ingo: i'm the worst kind of brother! how could i forget my twin?! #khan (thinking): mmm now's probably not the best time to mention the whole 'killed my own sister' thing huh #khan (out loud): that's rough buddy. but here- #ingo: these are nickles? #khan: yeah. i ALSO completely forgot my younger siblings existed. weird that it happened twice. #'if i had a nickle for every time someone i knew lost their memories of their younger siblings i'd have two nickles. which isn't a lot #but it's weird that it happened twice.'

i’m gonna make a guess that icatezol, rozelic, & miriande are still alive along with helga & walther,, but their current whereabouts are unknown,, so maybe that’s why they didn’t show up in the story like syphfride & brandon did

i’m also thinking that if icatezol, rozelic, & miriande are still alive,, but didn’t age like helga & walther did,, maybe they’ll be of a species that has a much longer lifespan (ex: syphfride)

#lord of heroes #loh #for some reason i put miriande on the Dead Heroes List when i first heard about him in extreme #i guess i interpreted the dialogue wrong?? maybe he’s actually alive after all?? #sooo going by the assumption that icatezol rozelic & miriande are still alive Now…there should be 8 people alive and 4 who died?? #damn i really miscounted huh 🗿🗿 i could still be wrong though— #but i’m gonna assume that those 3 are still alive because why would helga wonder about how syphfride And Everyone Else are doing #and walther brings up Those 3 specifically?? i think it’s pretty possible #also not entirely related to the aging stuff but does anybody else think icatezol & rozelic are some sort of Inseperable Duo?? #like i’m almost positive every single time they were mentioned it was them Together #and not just one or the other alone #maybe twins…or a couple…or two besties…just throwing it out there 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Today.............. has genuinely. Been. A Day.

Have some OC doodles I started yesterday before tragedy struck and are like the bare minimum effort for today to finish. Since the two princes were originally not /in canon/ for another plot but rather made for a mafia AU as cousins to one of the main characters for the base plot. I was like. Huh let's give them a happier life. So here they're just princes and instead of the police department/detectives that most of the main cast is in base plot, those are the royal guards around the twins' castle.

#my characters #the funny thing is that the princes are like......... made for an au of another plot #and here they are in another au of the plot #so like yeehaw everyone i love my ocs and i love putting them in situations #also idk what its worth but hey happy pride atticus is trans im proud of him #it has zero relevance to the plot but its important to me that hes trans #he also is like.... an absolute bundle of friendliness which is a huge contrast to the twins cousin #who is extremely stoic for the most part and finds it hard to feel emotions and thinks #everyone feels the same way all the time like him - WHICH IS DEPRESSED BY THE WAY #but he learns that ah nope thats just him and oh hes better by the power of love #and he doesnt actually get it ?? like in canon or mafia or as a prince hes just like #huh i like this guy and he makes me want to smile which is really odd im gonna stay by him if i can #and doesnt even realize right away hes fallen in love #atticus and caspian however are very aware of their emotions and are v happy to see their cousin feel things #and are constantly there to tease him but support him and help him and theyre all good boys #ill shut up in the tags now bc the tags are taking me as long to type as the art took to doodle

[wtf-amiru]

look, she's wearing real clothes

#ffxiv #a'miru #lost and found #we doin the scholasticate quests #and i fully did not expect to like them as much as i do #ofc i soloed gubal for an appropriate glam #*points* she's real cute ma'am #on gunbreaker and feeling like a rebellious victorian librarian that's just about ready to snap #also it's canon that a'miru needs glasses to read now #it makes too much sense with her backstory and shit #bitch never really learned how to read past a grade 7 level maybe #and bc the twins and uri exist she's never really had to think about it much #huh funny how the letters are a little bit easier to figure out when you can fucking see them #this is actually just the story of how my gramps found out he needed glasses lol #there i go again #putting lore in the tags #congrats for making it this far #you now have permission to go into my ask box and kick me for putting lore in the tags
