you know what was cruel and unusual of the i7 writers to do? to have Yamato, who hated his dad, try reconciling with him for the sake of others and getting back love and support while Sogo, who still loves his family in his own way, tries to reconcile with his dad for the sake of others only to almost have his career ruined and his close friend and partner nearly jailed for a crime neither of them committed

The girls are plottinggggg
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wen chao#wang lingjiao#Realizing she was supposed to have an upper lip mole was a cold slap in the face. So sorry ma'am. I won't forget again.#They are evil dumbass 4 evil dumbass and I think we are all missing out on the sheer potential of the comedy between these two.#They have way too much power and are using it for the wrong reasons - which makes them truly great villains.#And when things don't go their way they become piles of whining sludge.#Wang Lingjiao is forever fascinating to me even though we only get crumbs about her.#She's a servant girl who's greatest asset is her beauty and her attractiveness.#Meaning she's had a life being in the gaze of people with significant positions of power over her.#I can't help but read her childishness and petty tantrums as someone who has finally been given the chance to not feel powerless.#If she was a more virtuous type we might 'like' her more but honestly...I don't think she would have survived to this point.#WLJ has only known power hierarchies her whole life. Probably accused of seduction before she even understood what that meant.#I love contrasting her with mianmian because they have similar(ish) backgrounds but different approaches to moving forwards#But WLJ's story is about flying too close to the sun and mianmian's is about going too close to the water.#Like the sea mist dragging her down into complacency - all the sect powerplays are mandatory to 'go along with' if she wants to climb-#-the social ladder. Yet she is the cautionary tale (and a foil to JGY as well) she leaves before sacrificing her own morals.#Mianmian flies away with her wings only slightly plucked while those who sacrificed everything to reach for the top crash and burn.

see the THING about goodsir and stanley is that goodsir may be way less inclined to act cruelly but he has a far greater capacity for it.

saints I’ve been having fun learning more about you the sleepover asks were all so fun and lovely but would you entertain a return to the psychosexual analysis of fictional characters? anything that’s been on your mind?
oh i had just been waiting for someone to say the word.. i will probably expand on this later! but i've been thinking about barty's story as analogous to Christ's Side Wound. as in, he is a christlike figure who is Feminized Through Violence
i've been reckoning a lot with HP as a bioessentialist narrative in light of jkr's views. obviously this is bad but the way gender is enforced textually is so fascinating to me BECAUSE of how warped it is (ex. how women in HP can either be Mothers or Evil). barty's entire characterization is wrapped in traditionally masculine themes of power & violence & domination. i would say his entire character in-text is just one long Assertion of Control .... but that's really compelling to me because it's ultimately fruitless?
for a character w/ these traits (allegedly manipulative, cruel, dominating, etc) he spends the majority of his time forced into some form of bondage or constraint, being passed around the hands of powerful men. his devotion to voldemort reads really submissively and almost erotically ("my master"). and then there's the whole thing where he quite literally switches places with his mother (taking on her Body), both occupying matching roles under his father's control?
he's literally a fucked up Girlboy Manwoman. it's so insane to me. even the repeated admonishment of "Master Barty, you bad boy!" from winky contains this double entendre where he's BOTH a violent, overpowering, domineering male figure & this emasculated, penetrated, porous boydaughterservantwife who is scolded like a child. he's jkr's ill-formed caricature of male violence forced to assume the role of Battered Woman over & over. i need to marry him so bad it makes me look stupid

my beautiful wonderful morty oc who dies horribly for the plot <3
- angel gets her nickname from her dimension code … and bc shes oh so lovely ^_^ oh and bc she dies.
- hes super good at knowing what appeals to ricks and so tries to help the other citadel mortys (and notably emorty) to… act right. and hopefully keep their ricks. and not get hurt
- she gets lucky with her first rick being nicer than most… but his next rick is ur standard abusive rick. he ends up getting angel killed through carelessness or smth similar
- emortys closeness w angel is part of what endears him somewhat to morty prime later on. if anyone cares.
#more notes under the cutttt :]#rick and morty#morty smith#… can i use that tag for this or will i get attacked by wolves#morty oc#morty a-831#artsbotz#YAYYYY MY BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL SON ……#ok ummm some more stuff i didnt wanna type up properly#designnn wise. ok this is a silly specific thing i decided on where mortys have their hair parted on the right. but emorty is on the left#like hes mirrorrrrred. and also silly right = good / left = evil symbolism#i loveee eye colour symbolism too w mortys (and ricks) …#i think most mortys are like an even mix of blue and brown eyes#but angel has blue specificallyyy to match morty prime. yahhhooooo#oh and emorty has brown to contrast them both … and to parallel c137… etc#the long hair is just for fun and gender reasons BUT the hair over the eye is supposed to symbolise like. emortys eyepatch#(and also the fact that she dies from getting shot in the head.)#the hairclip does smth similar.#oh speaking of. im not totally decided on how emorty gets the hairclip back#but current idea is he manages to bust into where they keep all the dead mortys#he seems to have a pretty extensive knowledge of the inner workings of the citadel even early on sooo. its just a matter of When and How#he learns different things#btw he keeps the hairclip forverr. takes it w him out of the curve and all#anyways ig the main concept behind angels relationship w emoty is like. she does everything perfectly. acts exactly how she needs to#and its still not enough. shes still victim to the vicious system of the citadel and is thrown away like garbage either way#i imagine emorty to be kinda disillusioned stright out the test tube lol .. but this is part of what solidifies his hatred for the system#AND. for Sellout Mortys.#ok i can barely think n read rn .

thinking about how dongsik and joowon are the inverse of each other. thinking about joowon's journey realizing that blood is not thicker than water, ties can be severed from abusive family members (no matter how painful that is) and that among many things, his father's cruelty is what took away and destroyed dongsik's family who actually were a positive force in his life. many things about beyond evil appeal to me, but i mainly want to put a pin on the central themes of the show, particularly the failures of adults and parental figures, how that ripples through the lives of their successors in an especially vicious and self-destructive manner. this is a commonality found between multiple characters in the show (minjeong, joowon and jeongje) - but i want to put emphasis on joowon's struggle with this because his path to freedom was walked to completion, in comparison to minjeong whose life was cut short and jeongje who we part with carrying the painful knowledge that he may never achieve absolution, as his journey has only begun.
the show, technically starts at the beginning of joowon's journey/arc. unfamiliarity and discomfort force him to adapt and self-reflect, because the only way joowon was able to free himself was by breaking every rule his father set for him, going beyond his selfish confines and breaking down the walls he built. joowon is unable to get his physical body dirty, he is emotionally closed-off and is incapable of understanding why the people in manyang, particularly dongsik, would look out for anyone other than themselves. he is selfish, rigid, guilt-ridden and bashful; but it is exposure to dongsik's unwavering faith in and patience for others (for jeongje, for sangbae, for the people of manyang that have wronged him for years) that erode his harsh edges. dongsik, although not without flaws and contrary to what his outer appearance and manner of speech radiate, is kind and forgiving. that kindess, that forgiveness, as well as joowon's own guilt and shame is essential to getting him to a point where he is comfortable bloodying his hands, his clothes, and his face to protect dongsik (+ jihwa and her partner. to protect his friends).
dongsik recognizes joowon's pain too ("i know what it's like to be blamed for something you didn't do"). he sees his guilt, it's not inordinate to what joowon's done per se but a large portion of it brings so much shame to joowon ("please, stop doing unnecessary things out of guilt.") how could i have been so self-righteous when the man who bore me is responsible for so much misery? how do i rectify this, how do i absolve myself from the guilt? all dilemmas joowon grapples with, and dongsik, knowing pain and shame all too well does not grant joowon mercy when he is bowed down, forehead to cuffed hands while joowon's own are also cupping dongsik's, begging for it. mercy is letting joowon go, it's lifting the burden of responsibility off his shoulders - but instead, dongsik’s final request ensures that joowon truly atones ("i ask you to arrest me" - "no, how could i do that? i have no right") by informing him that the only way to live with guilt is to try and do right by the people who expect something from him. "joowon-ah", dongsik says as he softly picks up joowon's clenched fist, the look they share informs joowon that going through with the arrest is how he'll do dongsik right. it's what dongsik, his now friend, expects from him. that's what their final scene as partners is all about, in my opinion.
and something good does come out of dongsik's firm but tender confrontation. joowon gradually becomes a better person who seeks community and whose life, in return, is enriched by the friends that forming community gave him. dongsik and joowon's parting is bittersweet, but in letting joowon know that his actions matter to others and that he is wanted and expected by others - (jihwa, as part of the larger collective whose feelings towards joowon are influenced by dongsik's, texts him and checks in - that expectation to show up and empathy for when he does not respond is an invitation letting him know that there is a place for him if he chooses to occupy any) - dongsik sets him free.

prime morty : +unconditional love towards your family, -awareness of being replaceable, need to have a purpose
evil morty : +escaping abuse to live out your own life, -a lonely life of starting over, goal is achieved : no purpose
both EM and PM have different ways of handling ricks abuse, one of enduring the pain to try and heal him, the other escaping that abuse but still facing the effects. although it seems obvious that PM isn’t healthy and EM is, both are equally in an unhealthy situation.
escaping your abuser is an important thing, however you will still be left with a lasting trauma that causes you to not be able to heal, since EM is to traumatized to like anyone at all. as for PM, staying with your abuser will hurt you immensely, however he truly believes in rick. he has so much love to give.
both are extremes at the opposite ends, true polar opposites despite being the same person. which is why im so curious of their dynamic, hell, in episode 5 season 7 it illustrates this perfectly. PM trying to make conversation, trying to be friends, but EM rejects it ; why would he need that? to make a friend with someone who could just hurt him again?
PM has such a loving heart, but it is only used and manipulated by people who know they can take advantage of it. while EM keeps it all locked in, prepared and ready for any trick masked by kindness, yet it means in the infinite cosmos he is still all alone.
because it’s pick your poison : to love people who will only manipulate you, or to hate the people willing to give you love
