oh okay then
So, I made this fanfic idea generator for the Bungou Stray Dogs fandom. I took ages on it.
I guess you can use it for other fandoms, too.
this is probably the NICEST THING IVE IEVER READ IM GONNA CRY TYSM!!!!!! I definitely plan on writing more i have chapter 2 planned already....hehehe....I'm so HAPPY THANK YOU SO MUCH WAAUDYDGBDBTBT 🥺🥺🥺🥺💕💕💕💕💕😭😭😭😭😭😭
also I've listen to 2 of jhariah's songs, I plan on trying more :) I'm pretty careful with listening to new music , I tend to take it a little slow haha
if you do end up making comics or animatics just know I will be sobbing for hours /vpos
Chapter 1 of the bad ending N au is finally out! This chapter is carrying the most of the graphic violence in this fic, so...
yapping under the cut, but there will be spoilers so read after the chapter :) also @neo91502 idk which blog u wanted to tag so i hope ur main is ok? ;;
This chapter is the first one, so of course things are just getting started here. The reason I moved the end of B2/W2 to the end of B/W is partly because I wanted Hilbert to be there, but mostly because N's loyalty would still lie somewhat with Ghetsis in this situation.
Ghetsis's death is violent for a reason. N is very sheltered-- he's only shown what Ghetsis wants him to see. N sees Pokemon as victims, so it drastically effects his worldview to see one lash out so violently and maim a human being to death. He knows that Kyurem was lashing out at the abuse it faced at Ghetsis's hands, but N also genuinely was traumatized by a Pokemon. As far as he knows, it's been humans traumatizing the Pokemon. The funeral may be cliche but it is symbolic. Pokemon Black and White is about how things aren't...black and white. But at a funeral, everything is black. Everyone wears black. It's very clearly alluding to the undeniable truth that nothing good awaits Team Plasma beyond this point...especially not for N. Speaking of Team Plasma, the fact that the symbol is engraved on the lid of the casket is foreshadowing that Plasma dies alongside Ghetsis. (N is not suited for a position of power). N's speech at the funeral shows that he really has no idea how he feels about Ghetsis, but he knows for certain things can never be the same and that he will forever be changed by a past he cannot unsee. He also....really doesn't know what to do at a funeral. This chapter also leads up to a growing separation between N and his sisters, ouch. On a lighter note...at least he can maybe befriend Colress? There's a lot of clashing views there, though...
Dumps these on you
Hey, I just wanted to say that I appreciate that you’re willing to call out potential ableist stereotypes in relation to pokemon. I personally believe N was intentionally autistic-coded, and seeing headcanons about him secretly being a zoroark or whatever always bothered me. I’m glad that pokemon fans have generally moved on from that type of thing, and it’s thanks to people like you that we have.
Hi, anon! Thank you, I'm glad to know people are appreciating it! I do a lot of advocacy for neurodiversity in real life (I'm autistic with OCD, so those are my specialties, but in the case of other things I don't have personal experience with I can uplift other voices), so I'm happy people are taking it seriously!
N is absolutely a character that can be read as autistic-coded - I wrote a big post on my more serious autism advocacy blog on the subject over a year ago. I think a lot of people don't realize the ableist undertones the Zoroark theory actually has, but it feeds into the narrative that neurodiverse people are somehow "non-human." A theory regarding changeling myths is that this explained neurodiverse, particularly autistic, children, especially since some autistic traits don't show up until the baby is older. Again, these myths cast the neurodiverse child as non-human, and the parents reject it as "not their child," much like "Autism Parents" do when they mourn the "normal" child they never had. (Spoiler alert: those parents are being extremely ableist, and a lot of them will get really mad when an autistic adult points this out to them, so be careful!)
Before we had canonical representation, autistic people in particular often had to find ourselves in non-human places, with characters being similar to us often being robots and aliens (a plight we shared with asexual and aromantic people). A famous early example a lot of autistic people cite is Spock from Star Trek, who was half-human and half-Vulcan and made many autistic people feel seen for the first time. Now we're getting characters who canonically are autistic, or ADHD, or have OCD, or have Tourette's, or...I could go on forever here. But because of this, we also have the responsibility to portray neurodiversity with the nuance it deserves, and that means pointing out ableism, both of the intentional and unintentional varieties.
I play Pokemon Masters EX, and in N's event, he has a conversation with Alder. One of his lines struck me especially:
Ghetsis demeaned N by using this phrase, essentially dehumanizing him. In reality, N has animal empathy and due to his early upbringing can understand Pokemon speech. If anything, N's love and compassion for Pokemon make him immensely human; he cares deeply and wants to improve the world and protect his friends. But he had to grow up in an abusive situation where he was repeatedly dehumanized by his adoptive father. Making N a Zoroark actually does a massive disservice to his character and plays into ableist stereotypes of autistic-coded characters being "non-human" somehow.
Anyway, seeing the Zoroark stuff being brought back with Emmet, one of the most blatantly autistic characters I've ever seen in my 33 years on this planet, feels like a massive slap in the face. My roommate, who is also neurodivergent, wrote a comprehensive post that I reviewed before publication regarding the way some Submas portrayals and content can dip quite easily into ableism, and I recommend it.
If anyone is looking to get into disability and neurodiversity advocacy, I'm happy to help you get started! Thanks again, anon, and I hope you have a lovely day!
sooooooooooo,...
