My Work For The Life Series Exchange! For @acolorboom

but it still changes

Write it shitty, write it scared, write it without a clue but don't you be so spineless and have an AI write fanfic for you.

What these are for?

Quick sketch of what i thought of. I wanted to give Tango and Jimmy's clothes more details in my designs and i thought of these shoulder pads so it is more comfortable

Also

V.E Schwab in 2013 had the courage and nerve to ask the infamous and dangerous question "what would happen if the two worst people in the world were college roommates?"

does anyone remember that scene from Modern Family where all the partners who married a Pritchett talk about how crazy the family they married into is?

anyways I'm imagining this but it's Neil, Katelyn, and Erik talking about the cousins

It was ep 104

You may think it was bc of the clown

I was expecting it to be a clown too

It wasn't

It was tim losing his dawn little brother

I woke up at 4 am bc i had a nightmare with my baby brother and had to check on him

Fucker was watching tv peacefully

Finally

I reached the The Magnus Archives ep that gave me nightmares

And its so not what i expected

I hate it here

mad respect to the citizens of gotham but in a city like that with themed villains and a vigilante in a batsuit I would have been getting my trickertreating in at three PM and tucked away at home a blanket before dark on halloween

You said your favourite thing was Eli's abilities to ignore reality. Can you elaborate on what you mean? Some examples?

I think him in vegenful when he was at EON is a great example of how inside his own head Eli can be, he just seems to convince himself that he's right and nothing will ever stop him, like, yes keep talking to the "ghost" even after connecting that he was alive, do it! delusion at it finest.

I think this might be one of the most striking traits of his character and how he reasons things, a lot of people just hate him for how he called the cops on Victor and if you just try to follow his vision it makes sense! come with me for this one.

- I feel strange after becoming a EO, like something is missing, apathy and emptiness, loss of fear, so I try to "protect" the only person I consider a friend, this person kills my girlfriend and lies to me even after I saying it shouldn't be done like that, I call the police, he comes back and stabs me, and uses his power on me, confirming my "suspicions" that EOs are in fact inherently evil and wrong I no longer recognize my best friend as himself but rather a "devil" who is using his body. -

at the end of the day I think a lot of Eli is how he rationalizes and tries to fit together pieces of a narrative that doesn't go against him being exposed as wrong or as monstrous, or not holy, for various reasons, being a martyr? maybe his general relationship with religion and how he sees himself as a person? What he knows is that he can't be wrong, it can't be true, if he's wrong what would become of him? Then god hates him, and god doesn't hate him. if he can't die. There's a reason. It has to be one.

"Wouldn’t You?” He cut deeper, through to bone, over and over, until the floor was red. Until he’d given his life to God a hundred times, and a hundred times had it given back. Until the fear and the doubt had all been bled out of him. And then he set the knife aside with shaking hands. Eli dipped his fingertips in the slick of red, crossed himself, and got back to his feet. " Part Two; Chapter IV,  Vicious.

Many people wonder, why does he kill other EOs if he himself is one, doesn't he consider himself unnatural too? when in fact it is more he has convinced himself that he is different and that this has a purpose! he clearly doesn't like being an EO and appears to admit that he would kill himself if he could, he literally tried too, but if he can't then this has to be something bigger than him right? he can't be a sinner, against God's nature, God obviously has a mission for him! Because God loves him.

Anyway, I just wanted to give a bigger picture of how I think Eli works as a character, I think too much about this guy, sorry for the delay in responding, and thanks for the question!

Still obsessing over these guys’ lore
