If I See One More Goddamn Person Using Aromantic Or Aroace People As A Shield Against Their Homophobia

TWST OC facts

Some fun facts about "T", my Yuu-adjacent character who fills the same ecological niche, just... always exists alongside Yuu rather than solo

He arrived in Twisted Wonderland at around the same time Yuu did, though nobody saw him pop out of a coffin. Due to his natural sneakiness, most just assume he slipped out during the chaos and nobody noticed

He has nicknames for everyone, pretty much never refers to them by their actual names. These nicknames range from ridiculous to kind of cool, but mostly ridiculous

Notable ones include: Cater getting called "Camera," Lilia being "Batsy," Floyd being "Zappy," Jade being "Kraken," and Azul getting nicknamed "Squid"

It's unclear if he's calling Azul a squid on purpose or if T genuinely doesn't know he's actually an octopus and nobody has bothered to tell him

One of the actual reasons he calls every by nicknames is because he.... genuinely can't remember people's names very well. If someone says another person's name to him, he can generally piece it together, but actually remembering someone's name? Rare. The nicknames are how he keeps track of people

He wears sunglasses everywhere, regardless of the situation. It could be dead of night in a rainstorm and he'd still have them

Actually found out about Malleus' identity before Yuu did. Twice, in fact! However, he managed to forget both instances and only actually got a proper reveal around book 5

He has a sort of unsettling presence, almost like an uncanny valley effect. If he's happy and relaxed, it's subdued. If he's upset, well...

He's also very protective of his friends, and will dedicate significant amounts of time to bothering the people who pull anything. Despite his playful demeanor, it can flip like a switch in just a moment if someone he cares about is threatened

T gets along very well with most of Diasomnia, with one notable exception: Sebek. Sebek strongly dislikes him, and the two are often seen bickering. T thinks Sebek is hilarious, and will often make a pointed effort to annoy him

The primary reason that nobody's really stepped in between them is that nothing T says or does is particularly mean-spirited, and no real lines have been crossed yet by either of them

Sebek's name is one of the few T actually remembers, mostly because of the amount of times Sebek has repeated it. T still insists on calling him "Sparky"

IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN I LOOK AT THIS POST ONE TIME AND THIS GOD AWFUL MASHUP IS BACK

I hate having songs stuck in my head because I can have multiple stuck at once and they will overlap. Why is this bad? Because they will mix and as a general rule, they will have completely different vibes.

For example, today: Preybirds by Rabbitology decided to mix with fucking Mambo No. 5, so for a solid hour I just got a bunch of “The heart in your hands drips a little bit of Monica in my life a little bit of Erica by as it crawls from splintered ribs to eclipse a little bit of Rita’s all I need and beg again for revenge”

so hard not to become the most annoying person on earth if you're a little excitable and just learned a little about a topic literally no one around you has any interest in

Dazai through other people's eyes

Inspired by @originalaccountname's post about Atsushi's vision of Dazai being warped.

These are all panels where Dazai either appears as a memory or hallucination for different people. Probably not all of them, but a small collection I literally just gathered in the last hour.

----

Atsushi

I think it's interesting just how lifeless this hallucinated version of Dazai is. He doesn't smile, he doesn't joke. It really does just feel like Dazai's face placed over Atsushi's conscience to guide him forward.

Akutagawa

Scraggly little guy. There's mystery behind his eyes, he knows something you don't. Has never seen a hair brush in his life. Akutagawa's vision of Dazai always looks like he's the one in control and he knows it. But also, he looks so young.

Chuuya

This ones admittedly a little different because the 1st panel is from the fifteen manga BUT I'm counting it because I love the visual and it makes an interesting contrast to how Chuuya saw Dazai when they were both teens, to how he remembers him now. One a mastermind demon, the other a lost looking boy surrounded by demons.

Ango

Bratty, criminal child. Someone who needed to be saved. The handcuff representing Dazai as someone trapped by his past and Ango trying to pay penance by saving him from it. He envisions the boy he was, because his betrayal meant he never got to know the man Dazai became.

Ranpo

Happiest little guy out there! Considering how much Dazai says he admires Ranpo, it's not surprising that when Ranpo envisions the agency he sees Dazai smiling at him. This is the Dazai Ranpo wanted to protect, the smile and joy he never wanted to lose.

Unfortunately I DO think there's something inherently romantic about literally turning yourself into someone else's heartbeat

You can't convince me they didn't do it.

Akivili is racing. Aha waits for the moment to crash into Akivili.

these are my mutuals. they know who they are

Ahavili on the brain again
