Also Platonic Doesnt Have To Equal Sibling. I Hate When Ppl Insist “theyre Siblings!!” When They

Also platonic doesnt have to equal sibling. I hate when ppl insist “theyre siblings!!” When they wanna counter a romantic interpretation of any pairing. Like…do yall just go around considering everyone u interact with platonically as ur sibling??? Cuz thats kinda weird. I think just leaving haymitch & maysilee up for interpretation wouldve been fine

why does maysilee being a sister figure diminish the relationship? for me it’s beautiful (i don’t think every relationship needs to be romantic) and it doesn’t weaken the care at all. maysilee and louella and lou lou are in the same field, i don’t get how that’s a problem.

I never said it did, but the problem is that Haymitch and Maysilee DON'T have a sibling relationship. Nothing in book builds up to that, and then he throws this line in - in a very specific moment at that, as if SC wanted to make sure she shuts off a ship that was popular for the last decade.

If you want to read Haymitch and Maysilee platonically, that's fine, no one will arrest you for that, but if SC wanted a sibling dynamic between them, she failed. With Louella and Lou Lou she hadn't spell out for reader that he sees them as sister figures, you know why? Because the text defends itself with those dynamics. The moment you have to spell out for the reader, what you want to achieve is the moment you failed.

(That's also the reason why Haydove doesn't work for me and we all know you're here bc of that, anon, but that's another story ✌️)

A family of fraternisers

AUs where Viktor is raised by Silco and/or Vander are funny to me, because that means that most of their children run off with “The Enemy”

I figure this is a setting somewhere between the main universe and Powder’s AU

Thinking about how Blyke is actually insanely strong, even by the standards of his world, yet he gets his ass kicked for the entire story.

From episode one...

Thinking About How Blyke Is Actually Insanely Strong, Even By The Standards Of His World, Yet He Gets

To the first actual fight he’s ever been in... (ch. 15) [Edit: second actual fight]

Thinking About How Blyke Is Actually Insanely Strong, Even By The Standards Of His World, Yet He Gets

... to the approximate middle of the story... (ch. 197)

Thinking About How Blyke Is Actually Insanely Strong, Even By The Standards Of His World, Yet He Gets

... Up through the very latest chapter as of me writing this— (ch. 345)

Thinking About How Blyke Is Actually Insanely Strong, Even By The Standards Of His World, Yet He Gets

— Blyke repeatedly gets pummeled.

Over,

Thinking About How Blyke Is Actually Insanely Strong, Even By The Standards Of His World, Yet He Gets

It’s really no wonder he gets insecure about it.

I mean, these screenshots were all taken from different fights. The amount of fights he’s won, on screen, without backup is... once or twice against Zeke, once against Gou (Agwin’s Jack from turf wars), and once as a vigilante solo act. That’s four, max. There could be more that I’ve forgotten, but I’ve read this series so many times and I really can’t think of any. (No, I don’t count firing a warning shots to get people to behave as “winning a fight”.)

compared to all the fights he’s been outmatched in? You’ve got Rein from turf wars, Volcan, John, John, John, Lennon from his vigilante solo stunt, John again, the fight in the Rowden amusement park, the attack on Rowden hill, Ember, and now the authorities in general. Possibly more that I forgot. That’s 11. He didn’t necessarily lose all those fights, but they’re fights where he was way out of his depth and/or would’ve lost without backup.

Anyway, point is: Blyke is no stranger to getting his ass kicked. In particular, he is no stranger to getting kicked while he’s already down.

In fact, I’m gonna take an example from the turf wars match in chapter 15: Blyke has already lost the fight with Rein, yet Arlo hangs him out to dry. Arlo is the one who’s supposed to call him back to get healed, yet he just smiles while the others look at him expectantly, and Blyke gets more and more injured. Even Rein is questioning it.

Thinking About How Blyke Is Actually Insanely Strong, Even By The Standards Of His World, Yet He Gets

I could and honestly probably will do a whole analysis on just chapter 15, but eventually Seraphina calls him back for healing. The way Blyke was treated in that scene was kinda heartbreaking.

GOD chapter 15 is my favorite episode but it leaves me with so many questions grrr I wanna talk about it but that’s another entry.

Putting that aside, Blyke is very protective, and compassionate to the plight of others when he’s aware of it. After he sees the situation in Branish, he is immediately, rightfully pissed about the way society is. It opens his eyes to a world he hasn’t experienced, and it reframes how he thinks of John (still a “cripple” at the time).

To the actual point of this diary entry (other than rambling about Blyke, that is), John is another character who gets repeatedly kicked while he’s down. I don’t think I need screenshots to prove that. However, in my current reread of the series, I recently came across a certain panel that I do wish I had a screenshot of. It’s either Blyke or Seraphina who asks John “Why are you always kicking people while they’re down?” And John responds: “Because everyone kicked me when I was down!” And I think that’s a vivid contrast with Blyke, who has been kicked while he’s down, and chooses to protect people who are weaker than him. In particular, I want to point out that in order to protect them, Blyke is willing and actively chooses to get beaten quite brutally.

Mind you, this ^ is to protect people who he barely knows. He and Sera aren’t close, and the others are practically strangers.

It’s pretty much the inverse reaction. John says “Others kicked me while I was down, so I’ll do the same on everyone else tenfold.” Blyke says “I was kicked while I was down, and goddammit I will keep getting kicked if it means other people don’t have to.”

It’s such a cool parallel, and the fact that when John was getting kicked, Blyke was trying to help, but when Blyke was getting kicked, John was doing the kicking adds so many layers to it.
