“People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls…all because they cannot get on with themselves and have not the slightest faith that anything useful could ever come out of their own souls.” ~Carl Jung, CW 12, Page 99 “Purity is the enemy of change, of ambiguity, of compromise (Ibid:200) – Mikhail Bakhtin (Rabelais and His World)

“The pendulum of the mind oscillates between sense and nonsense, not between right and wrong.” ~ Carl Gustav Jung, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, pg. 154

"To the extent that the Christianity of this time lacks madness, it lacks divine life. Take note of what the ancients taught us in images: madness is divine." ~Carl Jung, The Red Book, Page 238.

"Madness is the most acceptable of all evils; it is misunderstood." ~Carl Jung, The Black Books, Vol. V, Page 233

"We find at the basis of the grotesque imagery a special concept of the body as a whole and of the limits of this whole. The confines between the body and the world and between separate bodies are drawn in the grotesque genre quite differently than in the classic and naturalist images. […] The grotesque body, as we have often stressed, is a body in the act of becoming. It is never finished, never completed. […] Moreover, the body swallows the world and is itself swallowed by the world."—Mikhail Bakhtin, Rabelais and His World, trans. Hélène Iswolsky, Indiana University Press, 1984

"What makes the madman so upsetting in that, in the typical manner of all grotesques, he escapes beyond our ready definition. Mad behavior brings into our experience of human nature an unpredictable factor, which in its refusal to be isolated and explained away, leaves us insecure and powerless before it. Human nature takes on ominous overtones in the insane person because the madman, like the freak, leaves us uncertain as to what human nature is and consequently what our nature is."—Geoffrey Galt Harpham On the Grotesque: First Principles

Title: The Grotesque Boy-God

People will still think they are there, it's just a little funky after the moon got stuck in one place for weeks. Divine magic got weird after the solstice, who's to say because of 'the solstice' it got really weird.

He goes to SFAI. He’s an artist. He’s a badly drawn human made by yours truly.

Basic plot.

Axel has an online presence, he mainly draws the hero’s of San Fransokyo. He’s friends with Honey Lemon and Karmi. 

This kid, honestly. He’s caucasian, lived in San Fransokyo all his life. Just your average Joe. That is if he didn’t dress so vibrantly. 

Before Big Hero Six were really a thing, Axel drew dinosaurs. He drew them a lot. He loves dinosaurs.(I’m being evil and giving him my passions)

He met Honey Lemon when she signed up for som SFAI classes. They’ve worked on some projects together and Honey loves his work. 

Karmi and Axel met online. She commissioned some art from him once. She’s a big fan of his artwork due to her loving the hero’s…and Caption Cutie. They chatted online for a long time, he actually encouraged her to start the comic(weird fanfiction)
