thoughts on bcs characters and their pullman-universe daemons
James McGill - Weasel or stoat family. The long sleek shape of the mustelid can squirm through any hole after its quarry, taking down prey several times its size. Folklore associations with being untrustworthy, unscrupulous, despite its diminutive size. Also known as the family from which Pantalaimon, daemon of Lyra Silvertongue, heralds from - associations of the protagonist.
Kim Wexler - Jackal. A desert animal with associations of the howling prairies, independence, a looming threat in a familiar canid form. However, jackals have a little known quality of centring the majority of their social behaviour around a monogamous relationship; marking out territory together, forsaking packs mostly for the pair bond. Cunning, determined, opportunistic.
Chuck McGill - Porcupine. Like all Rodentia, porcupines are intelligent and frugal, not carnivorous by nature but certainly with enough natural advantages. Unusual tree-dwellers that live far above the rest of the creatures on the forest floor, the porcupine's most notorious trait are its barbs, shaped so that they stick in the skin and cannot be pulled out.
Howard Hamlin - Golden retriever. Exactly what it appears to be to a fault, the ubiquitously loved animal has a few significant traits; it is above all a retriever, an animal that works in tandem with a master to seek out prey and skilfully return the prize, and any attempts to isolate this intensely social breed go awry - the animal withers away.
Nacho Varga - Rusty-spotted cat. The smallest wildcat in the world, to mistake this feline for its domesticated counterpart is a mistake; it is a predator of its lands, feeding on rodents and any creature beneath it, and has the hallmark of being one of the most successful predators relative to its size in the world. However, this elusive, nocturnal little wildcat has its weaknesses as a daemon; it will not stop until it is at the top of its food chain, even if it exists in an ecosystem where it will be swallowed alive. It has the typical feline traits of aloofness, independence, and particularly beautiful eyes.
Lalo Salamanca - Vampire bat. Largely associated with the handsome, deadly supernatural creatures of mythology, vampire bats do, in truth, hold blood as the superior tonic above all, and are also vastly social creatures; grooming, feeding, and raising families within a group that has strong ties to family members, but also makes room for non-relatives too. They hunt entirely in the dark. Like most of the bat family, their need to communicate means their high pitched chirps are constant when flying through the night sky. An unusual daemon for an unusual man; be watchful of his reflection in mirrors. It may not always be there.
Gus Fring - Coati. A daemon can sometimes settle in the appearance of an animal of meaning to an individual; and the mercurial and mysterious Gustavo Fring has inferred the coati's importance as much in his fateful recollection. However, the coati is also no insignificant animal; it is preyed upon by nearly every major predator in the Americas, but the coati has a tough hide attached to its underlying muscles, making it extremely difficult for teeth to get a hold. It is a contained and somewhat elegant looking small mammal with a handsome pair of spectacles around its dark, round eyes, and a reputation for intelligence rivalling that of its opportunistic cousin, the raccoon.
Mike Ehrmantraut - Badger. Whether of the European badger flavour; forest-bears of quiet and solitary pursuits, devoted to the burrows of their families, or of the American type, the fearsome ratel or honey badgers that face down mountain lions without a second look, badger daemons carry the traits of strength, perseverance, and an undeniable aggression that make them the animal that never backs down. Badgers construct setts that go deep below the earth, a vast underground system of resources that belies the staid, unemotional appearance of these creatures. Man + mountain indeed.

there issss something about having wants that conflict with the self like
i love people and persons and i want to meet people and persons i want to move out and learn to drive so i have more opportunities to do that but also i dont like going outside and also idk how to just talk to people and have to hope somebody will interact with me but i want to meet more persons but no i dont because having more than 2 friends is exhausting. I cant even make friends online. But also interacting with people in person is more fulfilling to me than attempting online. But online is easier. But no it isnt. But i want to meet people and learn more about people and observe people because I love people. And i love everyone

What inspired devoted innocence? I lowkey want to send it to my therapist bc u literally perfectly portrayed the effects of trauma and how it can make u a ppl pleaser
thank yew! but please don't send it to your therapist, it's like me showing tiktok edits to mine when i have nothing to say when she asks what i have been up to... like that poor therapist doesn't deserve to see such a monstrosity or an edit of iasip or arthur morgan or uh nvm-
anyway! to answer your question!! personal experiences, a story heard from my dear bestie and creative imagination!
most of my fics are exaggerated personal experiences and i often try to imagine how this scenario would affect a person. i act as the characters, write some dialogue first and play the characters, thinking about what would they say next or react.
there is never black and white when it comes to people- nobody is purely evil or good and so it must be portrayed in the media. nanami isn't purely evil in devoted innocence, he can somewhat tell the difference between right and wrong sometimes but he's too proud to admit it when it comes to his own mistakes. he's a product of the past and in this case gojo and geto's. those two aren't just evil either, tried showing that with the scene where they talk about the daughters, and in feigned innocence, gojo is perceived through the eyes of someone who worships him. he struggles to care for her because he doesn't know how. he expects unconditional love no matter what because of who he is but it is also sort of a curse, his name and status mean he will never find an equal.
in devoted innocence, the scenes with nanami and shoko were crafted through my playing the characters in a way an actor/actress does. i get in the headspace of the characters as much as i can and there are tons of vids of me playing the characters on my computer, cringy? very much. but i treat writing these fics like my film projects. if you learn to play different characters, you'll know how they'll behave next.
maybe all of this comes as overdoing things but man... i love telling stories. i may not be the best writer or write English well but it will never stop me from writing and putting effort into crafting stories.
everyone can write a love story but turning a well-loved character into a twisted stalker with issues needs a girl filming herself talking to a nessie plushie.

Hey people of tumblr I have an idea of a way to help support Gaza. This one's especially for people living in Christian areas with a lot of mainstream acceptance of israel. It's only a few days until Christmas and as for all Gazans, things are incredibly desperate for the small population of Christian Gazans. In particular here are some articles talking about fears all Christians in Gaza will be dead soon.
So how about we call up our local churches and ask what they're doing to help the people of Palestine?
The articles I've linked come from a variety of backgrounds. Some predate oct 7th. All focus on the plight of Christians in Palestine. Take your pick for what source you think will speak to your audience.
I want you to find a church that is ignoring the genocide or even praying for israel and then point out it's not just people being murdered. It's their people being murdered. Contact your local church like "Hey I'm Name, I'm not really a member of any church these days but it's Christmas and I really want to do something to help people in Palestine. I was wondering if you have something planned over Christmas? Maybe a prayer meeting or a protest or something idk 🥺" Then if you recieve any pushback switch to "oh but I'm just sooooo worried about our fellow Christians unable to celebrate Christmas".
It's a great place to ease people into caring about genocide who normally wouldn't. And if you convince a priest they might tell their whole congregation about how this christmas they have to show up for persecuted christians in jesus' birthplace. Worth a try?
