This was born

Hey guys, remember i reblogged an emergency crowdfunding once? Well, this person is funding for their friend. Their cat needs surgery and they’re having difficulties crowdfunding. I would really appreciate if you could share this around and donate even a little bit, if you can.

Obligatory tag for @mochi-bons and @starwardchaos @sin-fork02 as you three have been subjected to my insanity and I dragged you down with me

This will probably be incoherent bc I have so many thoughts about WPNZ and the character they gave him

I'll dive more into Wpnz, Karen and the Kids and that whole situation, and Gunshow separately. This is just about character as a whole

I think their dynamic and how they're handles is so fascinating and very real, in that both are right and wrong on different points

Karen is 100% correct in wanting to keep her children safe, in wanting to leave the assassin life and move on. And while we don't know the specifics of the before, we see that her and wpnz at least were happy for a time, before they came to a cross roads neither could budge on.

Wpnz is objectively correct in that their job paid in droves, that it would've supported them even if he was the only one in the field (and we see the truth in that, see how much Karen struggles. And tbh, look at Wpnz. Logically what other work could he have done?)

What's so fascinating is in the whole discussing and fight argument, Wpnz is trying to compromise, it's Karen that's completely stonewalling him.

And I love that she isn't villainized for it, bc she's right in how she feels about doing right by her kids, and also doesn't owe Wpnz a chance.

Based on what we've seen of him, I want to say it came down to miss communication between the two. We've seen how protective Wpnz can be (see Toomp) almost rivalling Karen in how they take over thinking what's best. It can be inferred that in the past Wpnz in learning he was gonna be a dad, probably dove headfirst into work to support them yet, but probably also work out his own feelings as we see him do a lot in fighting.

And karen more than likely took it as abandonment if he was gone for long periods of time, not reaching out and getting lost in it. And made the decision that, if he couldn't change and was leaving them, then she'd go first.

I said it in my first post but it's so fascinating to me how Wpnz is the more communicative of the two, at least trying to be in his own way from what we know of him.

He makes pivots and changes once he gets proper feedback, what he views as proper communication.

Like a lot of his actions, like kidnapping his kids are wrong. There's no way around it. even though his intentions are to get the change to meet his kids in an unbiased way via something they enjoy, he's going about it all wrong. But it shows care there even if it's misguided.

And in their argument of the past Wpnz gets frustrated when accused of not carring

Like confronting Karen in "enough is enough". It's one of the few times he cuts her off, when she's insinuating he hurt the kids and he sounds genuinely offended at the idea.

And in that whole interaction, even as he's getting cut off, he stops and lets her talk, he listens to her. Even starting the conversation with complimenting her parenting and the kids. He has respect for her as a person and it shows, even in knowing that she would get to him, get to that room.

Which again is a "right reason, wrong execution" thing. He wants to reconnect, he wants that bond and spent a lot of time finding them. Stalking is wrong and inexcusable, but considering the snapshots we have, this could genuinely just be the only way he knows how to show care considering how hurt he is at being accused otherwise.

But he cared, cared so much that he spent years trying to find them. That's not someone that abandoned the family. He never met Karen with any animosity on her decision until she was throwing accusations at him.

And in the park, when he finally gives her what she needs, no fanfair, no fighting just everything out in the open with an apology, she responds and finally gives him what he's been giving her. Not stonewalling and saying how she feels.

I so genuinely believe that if the kids hadn't wanted to spend time with him Wpnz would've left it at that. Bc Karen acknowledge what he was desperate for her to see, his change, and honest in that it didn't change how she felt.

But getting the kids approval got in his head

Bc they both ended up being of the "one or the other" mindset and not compromise

There's just so much. I'll bullet point little things I noticed when going by frames and that just really nail home these things for me and just what I love about these characters and series

-he's always bending down to the kids level to talk to them

-in the kitchen fight he's mostly in a defensive position, mostly dodging and talking (flirting) and only hitting back to get Karen going or the fight start getting to him

-when he goes to fire the shot from his turrets, he turns up as she comes in to headbutt

-he just feels in general really relaxed around her, like this isn't a real fight

-when the kids peak through the door Karen and Wpnz notice them at the same time, but Wpnz looks at them first, eyes going over first before his head and karen follow

-he's holding her up on his sword as they fight at eye level, and waits until she hops off to switch out

-in the argument taking place in the past house when Karen comes in the door Wpnz has a sad, mournful expression as she talks, only getting frustrated when she says "if you cared you would've left it behind"

-when Karen lets the kids hang with him and says No Weapons, he doesn't pull out any of his, even when in the rockslide. That continues into as he's teaching the triplets about their powers and only has it out once, his chainsaw, with Zack

-In the final fight in the warehouse (this could be an animation thing but going by frames this is what I got) is his shots are following them a little low, not actually aiming at them. Considering how much skill and speed we've been shown he has, I choose to believe that even in anger he didn't truly want to hurt the kids, even subconsciously as he was yelling other stuff in anger

First of all I'm gonna help share this statement from Cube, (from twitter but I got it from the SMG4 discord server)

@modmad I'm so sorry this situation has blown way out of proportion. As an SMG4/calling all villians fan, I apologise on behalf for how rude and nasty some of those "fans" were for harassing you, we do not accept those type of people in the fandom space. Many fandoms unfortunately have that toxic space, but I promise you there are more good people here who want to support you and just want this situation to end.

Harassment towards both TPOH and SMG4 fandoms and creators about their character's designs, accusations of plagiarism and theft, spreading false infomation, etc, to the point of RISKING SOMEONES LIFE, is unacceptable and toxic behaviour.

Personally, When I learned about RBG back in 2024, I thought he looked so cool and I even read a snippet of the comic and thought it was very interesting, and I'm still interested in reading more of the comic when I can. Hell, I didn't even compare him to Mr. Puzzles, just thought he was another cool TV man to enjoy! It shocks me that people would jump to the conclusions of theft like that and bully people for it, again, it's unacceptable!

I just hope for some peace between these fandoms soon. And if you're STILL harassing the creators and fans, shame on you! Go outside, seriously it could help your mental health.

They're both cool characters in their own right! Can we please finally put this awful misunderstanding to rest?

Also, I drew them together. (I know things aren't that simple, but sometimes art can be more powerful than words, even if it's a doodle)
