Some other silly dr stone redesigns
I love nikki
I couldn't stand the sight of hyoga's thousand abs
(edit: i forgot i wanted to add a link to the first redesigns)
His face is so relatable because you can be a very intelligent person all you want, HOW can you predict your ennemis made it a priority to build a perfectly functional tunnel all the way to your ass ??
They fought Stanley because they wanted to keep a plane ??? They were under the pressure of "i can come back and kill any of you any second" and their reaction was "well, gotta make sure i can use my plane on my boat" like ????
They saw the most obvious spy ever, let her come in, and found a way to make her change teams (they were trained personally by Gen).
They saw their ennemis were the very elite of the american army, and thought "yeah we gonna fight against them in a plane duel, and use our spears against their AK47" and it kinda worked (Stanley being undefeated is another story).
They dug a TUNNEL all the way under the castle to kidnap Xeno. HOW can you even think it's something that could happen. Xeno didn't loose (not really a loss, but not a win either) because the others are smarter, he lost because the others are batshit crazy and chaotic 24h/24. He literally can't predict their next move, no matter how smart his 4d chess plan is.
America lost the moment they let Gen walk freely in the castle anyway.

Senku this Ryusui that where's my Chrome appreciators at?
Omg I can definitely see that.
As I’m writing HP fics centering the Golden Trio, I’ve been writing out all their character traits n stuff for similarities and differences, and something big I noticed was how all of them don’t have great relationships with their parents.
Like Harry’s is obvious, physical and emotional abuse, and Ron’s is talked about, but Hermione having emotionally neglectful parents both makes a lot of sense and also fills in some gaps.
It seems like Ron and Hermione have similar issues with their parents not paying them much attention outside of their academic achievements, and how that has shaped them. Especially in the differences between Ron, who is mid/poor academically vs Hermione who is straight A’s. Same root problem, similar lingering issues, different personalities.
Final note: love this idea! It makes a lot of sense in canon and also in common head-canon land.
P.s. wrote this at midnight, I’ll review it later
(Honestly this entire thing might be projection, but who cares!)
Hermione has such an interesting underdeveloped relationship with her parents. They’re rarely if ever mentioned, and when they are mentioned, they never seem to know the full story of what exactly is going on at Hogwarts.
At least, based on the fact that they let her keep going to Hogwarts, you wouldn’t expect them to know.
On top of that, nearly every summer, she stays a large portion of her time at the weasleys. she also stays at Hogwarts during breaks, despite having the option to leave.
I find it fascinating that Hermione was even capable of obliviating her parents memories in the first place. This must have caused massive amounts of grief and agony to have surfaced. Yet she still did it.
Now I know she isn’t perfect, keeping skeeter in a jar and scarring that girls face in 5th year, but still, she was more okay with her parents completely forgetting her existence then attempting to find a different solution?
The only way to make that sort of decision easier, is your parents already not knowing you.
Which leads into my idea, I wish fanfics delved a little deeper into the idea that Hermione might have been neglected, at least emotionally so.
It may just be me, but most of these signs seem to point to some form of neglect.
See the thing about neglect is that it’s a slow acting poison in a lot of ways. Unnoticeable to those around you, and easy to ignore when it comes to yourself.
I think it would be so easy for fanfic writers to draw a connection between Hermione’s drive for academic success and plausible neglect from her parents leading to a need to impress people to keep them around.
Her number one fear in third year was failure.
I can imagine a world where she grew up quiet, struggling to make friends from her slightly bossy nature and higher intelligence. She noticed that she was special in a way (magically so), but she didn’t pay too much mind to it as neither did her parents.
But as dentists, as people who have gone through higher levels of academia, they would have paid attention to her success in school.
It wasn’t a lot of course. They’re both dentists, they both have full time jobs and no other kids, so she was just alone most of the time with her books as she didn’t have friends either.
It was lonely, but it was survivable, there was food on the table, a roof over her head, a warm bed to go to sleep in, and those brief moments where her parents would surpass her expectations and actually do something that showed that they cared and noticed her beyond her academic achievements for once.
Then she gets to Hogwarts, and the weekly letters turn into monthly ones. She tries to tell herself that all of them have just gotten busier with work and school. She doesn’t quite succeed in being convincing, but she goes back during winter break anyway.
She only ever goes back again in 6th year.
It would be so easy for her not to mention her parents, as they have a good steady job (with stable income, unlike the weasleys) and they don’t exactly outwardly harm her (like the dursleys).
It would be so easy to see her parents lack of attention or care as simple freedom, or her wanting too much, or not trying hard enough.
Because after all, she’s not helping by not sending letters either, or telling them the full story of what happened that school year when she does meet up with them.
I've talked once before about how Xeno needs Stan yet holds him back, but today I want to look at how much Stan's presence is also a detriment to Xeno and how his dependence on him leads to aggressive and (frankly) self destructive behavior.
Stanley is very put together, strategic, and calm until Xeno is taken away from him. While everyone else understood that Xeno wasn't in any real danger, and Stan out of everyone knew the connection of mentor / mentee guaranteed a safe and even healthy and stimulating environment for Xeno, he still snapped.
He immediately lost composure and fell for the stupid medusa trick, letting them pass unharmed. He made brash decisions when trying to take Xeno back, and eventually lashed out and murdered everyone with more force and violence than necessary to get him back.
Because of all this, I always see Xeno as an anchoring stone for Stan. And I like to imagine that they both see Stan as an emotional anchor for Xeno, even though, historically, he very much is not
Stan allows Xeno to tip into the dictator mindset and feeds into that wish. He would kill anyone who gets in his way and will hold Xeno on a pedestal, away from everyone who has hurt or undermined him, only further allowing the detrimental mindset of "us vs them" to grow and separate him more. Honestly, Stan doesn't notice it, but his presence in Xeno’s life is largely a bad thing. Instead of letting Xeno vent his frustrations in a healthy way, then return to humanity as a part of it, he allows the disillusion of being the only person able to lead the world to fester in his mind. Stanley is an enabler of sorts, allowing Xeno to check out from reality and from the consequences of his actions.
It isn't until Xeno is forced to live without him and strike his own balance in the KOS that his mentality changes. He softens again, finds faith and hope in humanity and creates lasting relationships with others who value science and truth just like him.
This is further proven when the people he's closest to in the Kingdom of Science go missing and he immediately starts to revert back to the mentality of "us vs them" when dealing with others. That same mentality crept up when he addressed the scientific committee and it was GEN who stopped and calmed him where Stan was content to stand back and allow his brash action to continue.
Their relationship can be seen as fairly simple and straight forward, even sweet at first glance. But the more one looks at it, the more layers of toxicity reveal themselves. There's always something new to focus on.
