Plz tell me y’all see my vision👁️
Currently stuck inside cuz my ass got covid in the year 2024 so I’ve got lots of time to obsess over my interests and listen to lots of mcr and rewatch my fav Monster High movies so consider this possibly the beginning af a series….
I will forever stand by the fact that these two should have been in freaky fusion. like come onnn
these are super old and my designs have changed since but ehhhh fuck it I'll update that laterrr
(much credit to @nottrye and @sockpansy again because of their continued feeding of my monster high autism. i still dont know what the fuck was inspired by them but im tagging them to be sure <3)
Just gave my friend an almost two hour long presentation on lab rats complete with a 32 slide long slideshow and I feel like god
shoutout to wind breaker for giving us so many different flavours of autism, we've got:
sakura 'i take everything literally and will go apeshit if i feel a Single Human Emotion besides anger' haruka
kaji 'sensory issues and explosive meltdowns' ren
sugishita 'almost wholly nonverbal' kyoutaro
endo 'burnt out gifted kid with violent tendencies' yamato
takiishi 'absolutely no concept of basic social norms' chika
and of course;
togame 'i got adopted by an extrovert and now im kinda struggling with this whole 'friends' thing' jo
i legitimately cant go to sleep until i get this au out of my head, shoves this into the world so i can rest
extra notes: -gabriel pulled a swap because Emelie was getting increasingly unwell after her pregnancy/birth, so he traded his sickly kid out for a healthy changeling in an attempt to sway her mental health in a positive direction ("look honey your son isn't dying") in the hopes it would make her recovery physically -it didn't work and Felix grew up among weird magical people who made him acutely aware that he wasn't like them -Marinette is not immune to magical charms and magical persuasion but her clumsiness offsets the power they have on her, so as long as she's awkward she's virtually unaffected -once Adrien finds out about Felix he just instantly sees Felix as a brother even tho Felix is actively trying to do him a murder (he will not succeed. victorian ass sickly boy trying to kill a magical being lol lmao even)
*plays slipping through my fingers by ABBA*
This was made for this tumblr post I made a while ago.
Petition to rename Animorphs books more accurately, so they’re called things like “first named character gets eaten alive”, “first suicide attempt”, and “oh my god even more genocide are you kidding me”
I will forever respect Animorphs for tricking kids who are just really into animals to read a book series by going “Hey you, you daydream about what it’s like to be a dolphin or a bird or a wolf? Have I got a book for you!” and then slowly radicalizing them with 50+ books of “There are no winners in war. Whatever ‘victory’ you perceive comes at the cost of sacrificing your own morals and killing the part of you that is human. In the end you will resort to murder, torture and war crimes and the knowledge of what you have done will haunt you for as long as you live.”
Aaron Minyard is written to be a bit of a jerk, but honestly after everything he's been through he deserves to be a bit of a jerk (as a treat).
The bullshit this man has gone through:
Found out at 13 that he has an identical twin whom his mother gave up at birth
(Likely found out at that time that she gave him up as well, only to change her mind and go back for one (1) twin. That has to cause some turmoil of what-ifs and why's)
Wrote a letter to his long-lost-twin hoping to meet and be brothers only to get a response back of "fuck you"
(At the time Andrew was trying to protect Aaron from Drake, but his only way to protect him was to keep Aaron away, but Aaron didn't know any of that)
His long lost twin soon after gets sent to Juvie
(Andrew did it intentionally because Cass/Drake wanted to invite Aaron to meet, and Andrew needed to GTFO to make sure Drake didn't get near Aaron; again, Aaron did not know any of this)
Aaron's mom then moves them from California to South Carolina.
Aaron is 13 when this happens, so Junior High going into High School, and he is uprooted and is moved across the country where he has no friends
(Nicky would have been in his final year of High School at that time, and was depressed and suicidal before leaving to be an exchange student in Germany, so Aaron probably only had a few months of having Nicky around before he left)
Aaron is the new kid from out of state, no friends, abusive mom, super religious hate-filled aunt and uncle, his older cousin who could have shown him around went to study in Germany and decided to stay even after finishing his study abroad program (no hate to Nicky, he didn't know what was happening and also had to save himself first before stepping up for the twins). He is also 5'0" so a prime target for bullying on top of everything else
We know Aaron was taken advantage of a lot around this time, in the extra content where Nora wrote about Aaron and Andrew's session with Bee, Andrew said that "Aaron's all bruises" and the girls he doted on and friends he ran with in high school "would all shove him underwater if it meant they wouldn't drown." (which is likely why Andrew made the 'no friends, no girlfriends, just family' deal with Aaron to protect him and prevent him from being taken advantage of by others)
Aaron was also an addict thanks to Tilda, though we don't know if this started before or after the move to South Carolina
Many things happen including: finally meeting Andrew and Andrew moving in, Tilda dying in an "accident", locked in the bathroom for a DIY rehab and going through withdrawals RIGHT AFTER HIS MOM DIED, Nicky moving back to be their guardian (yay!), Nicky being assaulted and Andrew being arrested and put on medication (boo!) so now the brother he has BEEN TRYING TO CONNECT WITH is even more difficult to communicate with
The three of them get recruited to join the Foxes, it's a full ride scholarship and also gives him more time to extend his deal with Andrew and try to forge a relationship with his brother
The first semester is rough, Andrew dealt with any threats the upperclassmen may pose and the three of them are now called the "monsters"
Aaron is also starting to regret the deal he made with Andrew because there's a girl named Katelyn in his classes and she's nice and smart and he really likes her...
He's still trying to forge a relationship with his brother, he's been trying for a few years now, and then seemingly overnight Andrew goes from hating Kevin Day to becoming BFF's/bodyguard to Kevin Day?!?
Kevin rides shotgun?
Kevin goes with them to Eden's?
Kevin and Andrew are practically inseparable?!
Okay, whatever, as far as Aaron knows Andrew likes having control over people, it's probably a power thing for him to have control over Exy-celebrity Kevin Day. And Aaron doesn't really mind adding Kevin to the "family", he's been through a lot with some mafia-exy-cult-bullshit, and as an added bonus pisses off the upperclassmen as well. It's fine, totally fine, just a bit annoying that Andrew and Kevin became so close so fast... he's not jealous, it's fine.
Then Neil fucking Josten happened
This man is a pathological liar, clearly on the run if he's disguising himself with colored contacts, speaks French and German?! And is just kind of an asshole whose only interest is stick-ball
Says things like "Drugs are stupid" like he's the pretentious spokes-kid for the D.A.R.E. program
This pretentious asshole joins their "family?!" He's even added to their family cell phone plan?!
And this pathological liar somehow gets Andrew to agree to stuff?
And Andrew has told Neil stuff he hasn't told Aaron because Neil KNEW something was wrong at Thanksgiving when Luther said someone named Drake was there?! Andrew opened up to this man who is a liar and a practical stranger but not to his own twin?
(Then Aaron killed Drake, the whole murder issue, possibly ruining his future if he's found guilty, but he'd do it again in a heartbeat)
HE NOW HAS A MURDER TRIAL COMING UP IN JULY, IT IS NOVEMBER AND HE STILL HAS PRE-MED FINALS TO DEAL WITH AND THE FUCKING EXY TEAM IS TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY'LL PLAY WHILE ANDREW IS IN REHAB?! HE HAS FINALS AND A MURDER TRIAL AND THEY'RE WORRIED ABOUT STICK-BALL?!
Oh, and Andrew gave the pathological liar permission to drive his car while Aaron is still not allowed.
Neil then interferes in his secret relationship with Katelyn
January comes around and the pathological liar has a literal blood bath in the locker room, complete with a cryptic message written in blood.
Someone very dangerous is clearly gunning for Neil, which in turn puts Andrew in danger because Andrew promised to protect him
So there's another thing for Aaron to worry about
Aaron probably wants to throttle Neil every time he opens his mouth in an interview because he's not just putting a target on his back, but on Andrew's back as well
Binghamton riot happens, more bullshit, the FBI is involved, and Aaron finds out then, alongside the rest of the team and a few FBI agents, that his brother is gay AND IS DATING NEIL?
Epiphany of his brothers sexuality aside; NEIL? Really? That man is a walking-talking-liability, still with mob ties, just being near him puts Andrew in danger! And he's annoying...
However, he can use Neil to break the deal with Andrew so he can be with Katelyn, but then they have Final match of stick-ball (ending with Andrew breaking Riko's arm), then finals, AND THEN he has the murder trial in July
In conclusion: Aaron's been through a lot, and continues to go through a lot. He's a pre-med college athlete, a recovering addict, trying to forge a relationship with his brother and also trying to have a healthy romantic relationship, but stick-ball-mafia-bullshit keeps interfering so being a bit of a jerk is warranted given the bullshit this man goes through.
Had to explain the plot of all for the game to someone who had no prior knowledge and holy shit. (Spoilers) Here’s some of my favorite footnotes from our texts:
To start with it is about a bastardized version of lacrosse called exy
And the yakuza
What
Does the yakuza have to do with lacrosse
The only joy he has is playing exy after his mom died and he burned her body in the first few pages of the book
Ah yes
Hillbilly cremation
10/10 for the environment
I’m honestly scared to actually read it
It made my mental health worse I think
Their mom decided to give up one and keep the other so one grew up in the foster system and one grew up with their abusive mother and they didn’t know abt each other until they were like 13ish? At which point one already had a SEVERE self harm addiction and the other had a severe drug addiction
Bro what 😭😭😭
And was HEAVILY abusive to them and their moms sibling was extremely religious (which sucked for their gay cousin, Nicky-he’s also on the exy team) and forced her to raise Andrew again after abandoning him as a baby and Andrew caught her abusing Aaron so he murdered her at 15ish
MURDER
A VALID MURDER
BUT MURDER
YEAH
AARON WAS NOT STOKED
I CAN IMAGINE
ALSO ANDREW LOCKED AARON IN A BATHRROM COMPLETELY ALONE FOR LIKE A WEEK AND FORCED HIM TO DETOX COLD TURKEY
WTF😭😭😭
Oh also Neil is like 5’4? There’s a lot of short kings in these books
Napoleon syndrome goes hard ig
Also I forgot to mention Kevin and Neil were childhood friends because Neil is technically supposed to be a raven (the ones who brand children) but his mom ran away from him and Neil knows who Kevin is but if I remember right Kevin doesn’t know who Neil is
Someone get these kids therapy
Please
They’d have to admit to all the murder
Get a mob boss therapist idk
TO BE PART OF THE TEAM BC THEY HAVE TO COME FROM FUCKED UP CIRCUMSTANCES THEY SEE BETSY DOBSON
Maybe it’s time to change religions
Atp I don’t see any other solution 😭
I need you to know everything I detailed happened in the first book and THERES FIVE
Fuck religions
Just death
They also go clubbing at a club called Eden’s like all the time
Ah yes, I’m mentally unstable, let me go to a club, shake some ass, grab a dick, and do a joint in the bathroom. Fun Friday night yall.
Also the older members call the younger members “the monsters” bc they’re good at exy but also because they don’t really view them as people
Again you’ve rendered me speechless and not in the fun way
Atp just burn down the school
THE YAKUZA TRIED 😭😭😭
TRY HARDER
ARSON ISNT ROCKET SCIENCE
Russian sleep experiment this author
Please
That summary makes it sound INTERESTING the points you described to me makes me think I should join a JIGSAW GAME I’d walk out of it with less trauma
Please comment some of your favorite fucked up things that happened in aftg 😭
Some days I think about Aaron minyard and about the fact that the aftg fandom gives him so much shit about going back on his deal with Andrew, or being a drug addict in the past and making that his only personality trait in fanfics, or going on and on about the fact that he doesn’t understand Andrew and maybe he doesn’t but
aaron understands Andrew when Andrew gets that flash of panic in his eye followed by a not quite there look before it goes his face goes blank because Aaron definitely has at least a little bit of ptsd bc who and I kidding the kid was beat, brainwashed/groomed his whole life, and had his mom get him addicted to drugs so he definitely has some ptsd like even as he’s older seeing a little blond kid all bruised up after the little dude fell out of a tree at the hospital to check out his broken arm definitely triggers him because all he can see is himself or Andrew all alone in the kids hazel eyes
but what really gets him is closing the bathroom door to the Colombia house (i can’t remember if it’s tilda’s house or the Colombia house they detox him in) and he always has to have it propped open to were he can tell he’s able to get out or he has to have something between the door and the frame to keep it from closing all the way if someone tries to slam it, him and Andrew are exact opposites when it comes to this
I know the bathroom door thing will bother him from personal experience because I had to sit outside my best friends room when she closes it to change or whatever because she was locked in her room once while going through withdrawals from Xanax cut with fentanyl and she can’t have her door closed or if it is closed you have to promise to let her out/promise you won’t lock it which takes me to my next point aaron makes Andrew sit outside the bathroom door when he needs it closed because in his words ‘you fucked this up for me so you have to deal with it’ and Andrew is just like ‘Yes I will keep my brother safe even if it’s from his head’ bc even tho Andrew is a little fucking shit he’s still a good brother and I live by that
but also the monsters are basically all teen boys so they aren’t going to be painting bathroom doors just bc of some scratches on it so aaron has to look at where he scratched off the paint of the door trying to get out of the bathroom while he was going through his withdrawals and it makes him like physically ill to look at the door and it’s never repainted until Neil is like ‘yo aaron hates the bathroom door. Why?’ And one day Aaron catches Andrew with a quart of paint spot covering the door in the twins 2nd year one night they’re at the Colombia house
This is like all over the place but yea the cold turkey detox thing sucks, ik from personal experience and that was just from nicotine and prescriptions I didn’t have a weening plan for, Aaron was on opioids/whatever his mom had around the house which means whatever he was on was definitely cut with other drugs like fentanyl or meth or whatever the dealer could mix with the pills and repress them to maximize profit and since aaron/his mom were buying off the streets poor dude was definitely coming off of multiple drugs at once and his body must have been fighting so hard
And like I wasn’t even locked up imagine being locked in a cold ass bathroom while you’re having the worst however many days it takes to flush the drugs out of it system through just throwing up and sweating it out yk
So I think Aaron has rights to be resentful towards Andrew for his rehab methods :/ bc it would leave a damaging physiological impact on anyone but esp a previously abused druggie teen.
I have lots of opinions on Aaron and I hate how he gets 0 redemption ark at all. Neil ‘hates’ him which is why we don’t see the good side of him but like we know neils a unreliable narrator like jeez I’m so tired of Aaron just being the butt of the joke in every situation just because the unreliable narrator with an attitude problem told y’all that Aaron sucks ://
Donnie have you ever been on a sofa?
It’s like looking at that sofa sitting positions meme with the stock photos.
watched all of 2012 and went insane
this one is from last year but I still like it a lot. making human designs for nonhuman characters that are hard to draw my beloved <3
aximili-esgarrouth-isthil is living the fucking nightmare though tbh
and I don’t even mean the thing about how he got trapped in a crashed ship miles under the ocean only to be informed upon rescue that while he was down there his big brother got eaten alive
I mean imagine you got stranded on an alien planet
and all that stood in the path of galactic annihilation
was your PERSONAL ability to remember perfectly the contents of the class you had at 7:35 your freshman year of high school. the one you passed with a C. the one you mostly spent goofing off in the back with your best friend because it was the only class you had together. or, alternatively, the class RIGHT before lunch (so you were always hungry) that you had with your crush (so you were always kind of distracted watching her)
Your name is Aximili you have Space ADHD and every week you have to take a pop quiz about your high school theoretical physics class and if you ever get a question wrong everyone you know dies.
Also, while you were trapped in a crashed ship miles under the ocean slowly running out of air, your big brother got eaten alive.
can't stop thinking about bobby and its consuming all my thoughts haha (also depth perception is my worst enemy so hopefully this turned out alright)
I KNOW CHRISTMAS IS OVER BUT HERE BRUCE AND JASON ANGST RAHHHHHH
