knd et al

Because I’m curious: reblog this and put in the tags 1) what kind of female characters you tend to find yourself drawn to and 2) if you have any thoughts about the portrayals of these sorts of characters in fiction*

girl who is chronically ill and that is discussed with many angles and also there is more to the story

what if i say rarepair stickybeard and dr lincoln (mrs lincoln can still be there. poly is ok)

Again, rereading the comics, and I just wanna say how it’s so cute that Nigel’s gives a gift to the Delightfuls here

Seeing discussion about Abby lately has got me thinking about op MAURICE again. It seems like every other Sector V member except Abby has gotten a good amount of scenes showcasing they're children at the end of the day. Nigel is prone to shortsighted judgements, Hoagie has childish interests and can get lost in his own world (detective episodes, his cowboy deal in that one episode), and I don't need to elaborate on Kuki and Wally. Sure, Abby has that whole "candy" shtick, which is comparable to what Hoagie has going on, but her candy adventure episodes always felt sorta insincere to me. Like, they needed to do something with Abby and implemented this idea with her, even though it really doesn't communicate much about her character that we already didn't know. Sure, she's hunting for fucking candy, but they never use that opportunity to explore the more childish aspects of this child character.

the aroace flag colourpicked from the poster used for the book's cover because i was procrastinating :)

My little brother insisted if I was going to post about him, he wanted a cut of the "profits". When I explained to him that Tumblr isn't monetized, and is pretty pointless, he and my older brother pointed out that he'd still be bringing me "fame and notoriety" if the post got "big". So we agreed, if the post hit 10k notes, which seemed extremely farfetched and silly at the time, I'd take my little brother out for sushi (his favorite food) and let him eat as much as he wants.

if yall are writing this send me links ! (preferably nothing very stereotypically romantic/sexual… stuff like Sick Kids In Love is good though)
