It’s curious how Jopson has absorbed all the virtues that, in the eyes of the upper classes, “good examples” from the lower classes are supposed to have: obedience, patience, workaholism. And of course, the officers reward him for these positive qualities, it’s practically a didactic moment. And Hickey, naturally, represents the negative example of a man from the lower classes. Although it seems to me that everything for which he is punished and put in his place by the system, all of that, among his own people, in his own environment, are actually positive qualities: practicality, initiative, ambition and audacity.

“This reads like fanfiction (I’m pretty sure I can identify the filed off serial numbers)”

So how’s the art coming along guys?

possession horror where the thing possessing the autistic character causes them to behave in a more neurotypical way. autistic possession horror where the thing inside you is easier to communicate with than you are, the thing inside you doesn’t have a flat affect, the thing inside you doesn’t let your body stim, the thing inside you is how you were told to behave and you can only do it when you are no longer you. autistic possession horror where you will never forget that everyone liked it better than you before they found out something was controlling you. autistic possession horror where they know what’s inside you isn’t you and debate whether it would be easier for everyone to leave you like this anyway. you agree. reblog.
