I really like this take, it's so refreshing compared to people pretending logic is absolute and ideal

Claude Faustus modern! au headcanons

cw; prob swearing,explicit (adult ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) stuff) mentions of abuse maybe?

——————

- Claude thinks the iphone vs android argument is stupid, but he def thinks that iphone is better (pls do not argue abt this in the reblogs or whatever ple im begging you)

-Claude lives in an a duplex with noisy af and annoying neighbors. like. they blast music ONLY at night when Claude is trying to sleep and brings ppl over and bc the walls are so thin he can hear literally everything. and by everything i mean he can hear them chewing, talking on the phone, seggsy time, and DEFINITELY crying

- i feel like Claude also works at a café. Although he finds cafés particularly boring, he thinks its interesting how humans interact with each other, and why they choose to go to a coffee place rather than their own home to study, plus he likes coffee.

- UM Claude sometimes just hangs out in his house in his demon form. like huge ass fuckin spider just laying on the floor. a package delivery dude had to be bribed to not tell anyone and then shooed him away

-Sometimes Claude just walks around at a park to get a breath of fresh air. Almost immediately leaves because he heard a baby crying.

- Claude cannot tolerate crying babies, so to avoid hurting anyone or anything he literally has to evade the premises

-BACK TO THE CAFÉ! Claude likes caramel flavored coffee, if it has anything to do with caramel he will ask to have it in his coffee, he also gets black coffee on the rare occasion.

-Whenever an employee gets his order wrong he just stares like. ._. “thank you” *leaves and throws cup away”

- Claude cannot stand child abuse, like if he sees some woman beating on her child or yelling at it for seemingly no reason he is there and basically yelling at the mom being like “YOUR CHILD IS NEVER GONNA SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN AFTER IT MOVES OUT IF YOU TREAT IT LIKE THAT”

-i feel like Claude was abused at some point in his life (besides Alois) by someone he really trusted. pretend he’s not a demon for a sec n thats the reason hes so stoic and monotonous

-his halloween decorations r literally the best in the neighborhood, possibly the entire city. he goes all out and his house has no decorations at all for any other holiday

- Jehova witnesses show up sometimes doin their usual thing n Claude is just 🧍🏻‍♂️

-gives out candy on halloween

- has a private instagram with no followers and the only account he’s following is lifes.a.bender

-his fave song is Rabies by Young Mammals

-occasionally plays old games like twisted metal or castle minor z

-HAS watched the show ‘Lucifer’ and actually enjoyed it, thinks his red eye editing is funny LOL

-Never seen leaving or entering his house so it’s a high target for robbery, but Claude is almost always there. Again many people have walked in on a gargantuan spider just. sittin on the bed watching TV

-actually has a sense of humor

-cares about people somewhat more in the 21st century rather than the 19th, but barely

- has a pet spider named Raven the Acid Bath Princess of Darkness

this is the inside of claudes house lol

sum like that

LIVE BY CLAUDE AND LOVE BY CLAUDE <3

@wings-united

So i think this sums up everything ive been saying. Avians never evolved. ever. there is no new species and everything you and sahde have theorized is nothing more than “science” twisted and cherry picked to fit your theory. I think this is all im going to say about this. I really do feel sorry for you, youve deluded yourself into feeling special and used “sensing” to be cruel to others. Glad im not brainwashed, leaving pi was the best decision ive ever made lol. Wing growing is spiritual. It is in the same category as kinesis, witchcraft etc etc. Yes, of course it is biological but that is only one part. It is mainly controlled by things that are simply unknown and (largely) unstudied by science at this point in history.

I hope you realize that that kind of “holier than thou” “my way is the ONLY TRUE WAY” “science ONLY TM” though is turning you into, uh a huge bitch. shrugs. i hope you can idk, learn and grow from this instead of becoming even more of an ass. ~its~ok~to~admit~youre~wrong~dude~

“Even if we assumed that somehow humans evolved wings, there are a number of problems on this already- The first one is that every single damn vertebrate on this planet is a four limber and has been since the first fish crawled its way out of Ye Old-Time Oceans. There has never been a hexapod species of vetrebrate and the idea that you could just pop out one out fully formed is… very optimistic to say the least. In species with insects, where segmented bodies are a thing the duplication of segments and therefore limbs is much less of a problem (hence centipedes…) but human limb development doesn’t work like that. We don’t have segments you can just double up on. Which brings us to another point: ‘developing wings later in life’ Ok here’s the thing, limb development is run by a number of very, very old genes, called HOX genes. I’m saying ‘very old’ because virtually all animals have incredibly similar ones, which means that 1) these genes developed very early in the tree of life 2) mutations therein tend to be lethal, because that’s how you get highly-conserved genes. They are ‘highly conserved’ because if you apply randomized mutation to them, chances of lethality are high. Another thing is that you can’t just switch a hox gene on or off like a light. Once they’re off they’re off, at least in humans and mammals. That’s why we can’t regrow limbs that we lost. That’s why axolotls are so interesting for humans, because they can actually ‘reuse’ their HOX genes to regrow body structures, even important ones. But even they lose the ability to do that when they grow out of their neoteny stage (which you can induce by stressing them!) so that’s still a point.

Also, at this point we gotta talk about feathers. Feathers evolved from scales. Even the mammals that do flight or gliding don’t do feathers because they don’t need to and feathers developed in a spot on the family tree that was much much much later than the split between mammal/reptile (and therefore, mammal/bird). And while we’re at that we gotta talk about evolutionary time spans, too. Flight is a very very expensive road to go onto that requires a lot of adaption to function and according it requires a lot of adaption to work. That needs time. A lot of time. Bipedal members of the homo genus have been around for about 4 million years (counting Australopiticus as the earliest). If we go further back to include the potentially bipedal ones, we go to like Sahelanthropus and about 7 mil back and if we go even further, to the early apes, we would reach a horizon of about 10 million years. That’s not enough to grow wings. Bat have a thing for… longer. Like, we have bat fossils from 52 million years ago that don’t look as adapted as modern bats do. Meanwhile birds had even longer. Like, we have kinda-birdlike-dinosaurs from about 160 mil ago. I want you to consider that time scale. Humans havn’t been around long enough to develop wings, much less flight. Especially because even if you stick an extra pair of limbs onto humans for flight purposes (good fucking luck on that already), limbs for grabbing things (actually useful) would be built very differently than limbs for flying or gliding. It just doesn’t happen. Of course you do also claim that ‘avians’ are a different species than humans so I wanna know 1) when did that split 2) why is there no fossil evidence what so ever, at all 3) how did you guys avoid being inbred as fucking hell. Like, humans are a very genetically homogenous species despite the fact that different populations of us actually interbred with different other human species (neanderthals and denisovans are essentially proven to have happened) so again I gotta wonder where you’ve been hiding them winged humans all the time so that not just did nobody ever find any fossil record, nobody ever found any genetic remains of them either. How early do you think that split and why on earth do you think that winged apes or even earlier, winged monkeys, are a thing that is even remotely evolutionary sensible. Especially while growing an extra pair of limbs. And extra pair of limbs that we have ZERO evidence for ever existing. ”
