I love it when characters are immune to psychic attacks/emotional manipulation magic/psychoactive drugs or whatever, but for DEEPLY mentally ill reasons.
Fear gas? I already have an anxiety disorder. Also you don't know the meaning of fear until you have a category 5 autism event in the middle of a social scene and know you'll get severely punished if you act out
Depression aura? Bitch I live an economically productive, nutritionally balanced and physically active life that other people rely on like this.
Haunted? How would my ADHD ass even know?
Pain machine? Hm. If your machine's "10/10" is my "4", I should probably talk to my doctor about better meds.

i know people make jokes and call percabeth their parents, but they are legitimately the most mom and dad coded characters i’ve ever seen. these two were BORN to be parents. they are literally 17 and already give off ‘married with 3 kids’ vibes
percy, with jeans full of pockets, none of which have anything remotely useful for 99% of situations (but he’s got plenty of jokes!)

i have a reigen plush on my purse and my 70 yo mawmaw has really liked it so i bought her one. she put it on hers and she said she’s gonna bring him to church because “he is dressed for it” and very cute & handsome. she got out of the car and she said, “oh my little reigen i wont leave you alone im coming back i promise.” she has not watched a single episode of mob psycho 100 and does not know who this man is.
