#there's a whole scene in aotd where the joke is that toki is essentially acting like a child that wants to be taken to the bathroom

maybe i have not seen the content people complain about but when i see talks about the fandom infantilizing toki i'm confused cause like...didn't canon start that...with every passing season toki become more and more child-like until age regression was essentially confirmed in aotd...

#dont reblog PLEASE im just thinking outloud i dont want discourse #rambling #like idk canonically toki likes coloring books and offered pizza/chocolate to skwisgaar in exchange for a solo #he gets excited about secret santa and says woweee #he has a teddy bear etc etc #none of these things have to be inherently child-like #but the way toki is written during these scenes is purposefully meant to be perceived that way #plus he's the youngest of the band #never taken seriously #throws tantrums often #and so on #there's a whole scene in aotd where the joke is that toki is essentially acting like a child that wants to be taken to the bathroom #there's always gonna be people flanderizing but honestly toki is a tough nut to crack tbh #the key is finding the balance imo. he might have child-like interests but hes also BRUTAL #and overall he STILL IS AN ADULT in a death metal band that gets his dick wet often and does drugs on the regular #he just also is traumatized and wants to reclaim the childhood he never had imo #i think dethklok is somehow a safe space for him to act the way he wants to act vs the way he was forced to when he lived w his parents #he prolly had no choice but to grow too fast and was essentially forbidden to experience any kind of joy #so with dethklok he can indulge in all those silly little things he never got to back then #thats how i see it at least
