i don't have art to go along w this rn, BUT i desperately want junior year to include ayda living w her dad IF ONLY so fig and adaine can visit and we can see the inevitably insane house arthur aguefort lives in!!
the joke is that we haven't met them before! i don't think the pcs know them either, they're just making up dynamics on the spot based on the people brennan brings out
sorry im so confused did i miss something who is ecaf who is squeem who is balthazar and who is duggens. or am i just autistic and the joke is that weve never met them before
i know this is likely an unpopular opinion since a lot of this fandom has religious trauma, but i would kill for some redemption for helio or some positive helioic representation. it'd be just good, complex worldbuilding if it were solely fiction, but since it's so referential to christianity that ally literally says jesus instead of helio on several occasions i think they either have to really differentiate it or maybe add some complexity to the current 'all 'helioics' are bigots, your faith is evil' angle. because in fiction you can do that, but real religions aren't that simple. im not religious myself, but there have been times where i've been in really bad situations and the most welcoming, caring people are pastors. there is a good side to christianity, and in freshman year kristen wasn't a bad person. she believed in all the good things those pastors did, she helped victims of human trafficking, she fought against her family's racism even before she met her friends. her family was horrible and she was indoctrinated into a cult with the harvestmen, but her faith wasn't bad. religious trauma is not inherent to religion, it's abuse that people use religion to justify.
since s1 i have desperately wanted a good character to be introduced who worships helio like kristen did in freshman year with love and acceptance because that's who they believe helio is, and i don't want them to be proven wrong. tracker didn't give up on galicaea after kristen told her what she was like in the astral plane and worked to change her worship, and i think it would be really interesting to see someone like buddy go tracker's direction with helio instead of just rehashing kristen's character arc.
just gonna add my unwanted headcanons
natsu?? def enby ish. probs any pronouns, is just vibing. i wanna say pansexual aromantic, bc he does have fanservice-y moments and is mostly just oblivious to romance.
erza and cana are basically canon wlw - am i wrong?? jellal’s the only guy erza’s ever liked and cana might go for a guy once in a while but wouldn’t be serious about it.
lucy and juvia are gay as hell. i refuse to accept juvia’s obsession with gray as romantic bc thats not what i think romance is but i definitely do believe it was sexual. also juvia is definitely somewhere in the enby spectrum.
gray had a crush on erza at some point, probably also on natsu tho tbf. not lucy or juvia, at all - he’s definitely some form of demi, possibly asexual.
i can’t see jellal ever having romantic feelings for anyone but erza, so i’ll call him greyromantic. he’s also definitely asexual. not sex repulsed, but it isn’t something he has any desire for.
gajeel has always been ftm in my head and i have absolutely no reason for that. he n levy are doing great being str8 together, and i’m p comfortable saying they’re both straight.
also QUEERPLATONIC NALU is the future. lucy kinda thought it might be romantic at some point but natsu is very aromantic and now they chill and eat ice cream together. they are always mistaken for a couple, esp since natsu will get jealous if lucy spends more time w her partner than him but their solution for that was for natsu to tag along on dates like their kid.
none, and i mean none, of the fairy tail characters are cishet (as in maybe cis but part of the lgbt community and/or trans/nb etc). idc. yall can disagree with me but i refuse to acknowledge some of these ships (like gruvia oop).
natsu dragneel is aroace and overall a no labels guy in general. lucy heartfila is bi leaning guys but we all know she has a gf. gray fullbuster is gay or bi. erza scarlet is bi leaning girls.
natsu has a close ass relationship with lucy but they're not romantic in any way. they enjoy eachothers company, spend one on one time together etc (im bad at explaining JDNDKXJD). if juvia's obsessive and unhealthy behaviour towards gray wasn't canon, she'd probably be crushing on lucy. gray.... oh, gray. he is. oh, you know. erza is just vibing.
my main fairy tail ships are currently:
(romantic) jellal x gray
(romantic) erza x jellal
(platonic) lucy x natsu
(romantic) lucy x juvia if she didn't have her obsession
(romantic) levy x gajeel
of course, everything i say is headcanons, but lemme just believe this is real,, this once,,
i've been pretty distracted by all the sapphics this season so maybe someone pointed this out and i didn't see it but - jace was murdered and brought back under porter's control with a rage star, he was never evil at all as far as we know. but even before brennan said jace and porter are a 'duo' people have been shipping him with porter, so everyone just accepted that he was evil because yeah he's banging the evil guy. the bad kids burn a couple of him alive, one of them is arrested (and then also burned i think?) and his only crime was choosing to come back to life to worship a rage god which yeah after getting murdered by your coworker i think that's fair. he didn't know porter would control him because ankarna didn't know that porter was controlling anything, he was on that devil's honey.
imagine being brutally murdered out of the blue by your coworker, a nameless god offers to revive you if you'll worship her and then you come back to life only to realise it was the same fucking coworker who can now mind control you. and then you get murdered four more times and you stop being mind-controlled but no one wants to bring you back because they think you were fucking your murderer. the life of a twink.
gilears voice is slightly different - maybe it's just that brennan hasn't done that voice in a while, but i really think there's something up with him. obviously he's had great luck (probably a trade-off for figs new terrible luck) but his personality seems to have changed and fabian didn't make an insight check
Anyone else getting odd vibes for Gilear this episode…? Cause between him mysteriously winning a vacation and getting engaged/married without telling Fig (cause you KNOW he’d tell her) and Fig’s Dairy Demon Deal™️, I feel like something is up…
it's so fucking funny how quickly the bad kids switch from Battle Mode. less than a minute ago you were burning/suffocating pawns alive in lava but initiative drops and suddenly it's all nooo ankarna you need to forgive people! violence is not the answer! and yet it took them a solid hour of roleplay to be okay with bringing back the rat grinders because they were so pissed lmao
I think all the supernatural elements of Yellowjackets can actually be explained as the spirits of the dead interfering either to help or punish.
The bear is Laura Lee taking care of her friends. The snow on Jackie's body is her allowing herself to be consumed if it means her friends survive. Javi survived on his own for so long because his dad was looking out for him.
The things that aren't directly linked to characters we know could equally be other spirits that died in the wilderness - the others that died in the plane crash, the man in the cabin, the owners of the survival equipment Ben found.
If you get scared, you can always hide behind me. I’ll be hiding behind Luke.
