You And Me We’re Not The Same

Honestly, I think someone had to say it. Kafka Asagiri is a spiteful bastard who likes lolicon (follows loli artists on Twitter) and defaming the names of authors he dislikes. The REAL Mori Ogai is a CSA victim, and has been deeply outspoken in Vita Sexualis about how traumatic it was to 1) be exposed to pornography at age 6 for his first experience with sexuality, 2) narrowly avoid being assaulted at his school by older teenage boys when he was 12, and 3) get drugged and assaulted by a prostitute when he was 19 who successfully gaslit him into thinking what happened to him was his fault. He wrote Vita to expose the way literature conditioned him to believe that it was his fault people were sexually violent towards him, because authors like Tanizaki were normalizing that in their work and he was afraid more people would end up like him, only to get called a “degenerate” and censored for speaking out about being an abuse survivor. Asagiri was SO OFFENDED by this idea that his fetish-pandering could hurt people that he made “Mori” a lolicon AND constantly shows him drinking THAT VERY SAME TEA HE WAS DRUGGED WITH IN REAL LIFE. I genuinely do not understand why THIS MANY PEOPLE have not read the original authors’ works. Don’t even get me STARTED on what he did to Dostoevsky.

You're clearly the expert here what on Gods green earth is this 😭🙏 spread this word

WAIT WHAT DID THEY DO TO DOSTOEVSKY?! IM NOT FAR IN THE ANIME

I'm new to the Phandom, and was wondering who the heck is Wes? Did I miss an episode or something that he was mentioned in?

Basically. Wes Weston is this background character that appears for exactly one scene in the whole goddamn show.

He has no lines, he doesn’t do anything except stand and then run. He’s virtually the most useless character in the entirety of the Danny Phantom series.

The thing is, what the phandom realized, is that he has the exact same character model as Danny Fenton. He’s just a ginger instead.

They deadass took the MAIN CHARACTER’S model sheet, swapped the hair and eye colors, made him a lil taller, added a few freckles, and was like “yeah no one will notice this.”

Oh, but we did notice it.

So we were like “this is fucking hysterical” and all collectively—because, remember, what the hell even is canon in this show—that he was going to be a prominent character in fanon. And now he is.

His name, Wes Weston, comes from the class ring that Jack gives to Danny during the lil arc when he is dating Valerie. Jack engraves the ring with Sam’s name (because he thinks Danny’s dating Sam), and during a scene where Danny has to go chase after a ghost, he gives the ring to Sam to hold onto so he doesn’t lose it.

But then Sam holds the ring upside-down and so “Sam” on the ring becomes “Wes.”

The last name of Weston was just one of those, “Hey how dumb would that be if his name was Wes Weston?” “Lol that’s such a dumb fucking name I hate it.” “Ok it’s fanon now.” “Lmfao.”

So now Wes Weston needed a backstory. And because he looks exactly the same as Danny Fenton, and because we all know that Danny’s absolutely atrocious at keeping his double life a secret, fanon decided that instead of the town discovering that Danny Fenton is Danny Phantom, what if everyone just thought Wes was Phantom? Because, ya know, they look so similar? And Wes actually seems to have some athletic skill? (**See Edit for updated backstory)

And because it’s hilarious?

So that took off, where everyone thinks Wes is Phantom, and the A-listers think he’s super weird because he’s part ghost, and Wes is going out of his mind because he’s the only one (outside of the trio and Jazz) that actually knows that Danny is Phantom but no one believes him.

And oh man, does Wes try to prove it. He stakes out Fenton’s house, follows ghost attacks, brings cameras everywhere with him, but no matter how hard he tries, all his plans are foiled. Maybe a stray ectoblast breaks his camera, maybe all the pics he gets are super blurry, maybe Danny steals the memory chip from him—no matter what, Wes never gets proof.

And Danny? The general fanon hc is that he’s having an absolute fucking blast annoying the shit out of Wes with every chance he gets.

So yeah! Hope that helped! I fucking adore Wes as a phandom creation, and I’m glad his legacy has lasted all these years!

**EDIT: Over the years in phandom, Wes’s role in the series has changed from the people of Amity Park claiming that he is Phantom, to the people of Amity Park just regarding him as a crazy conspiracy theorist. Occasionally, the insinuation that “Wes is Phantom” is made, but it’s mostly seen sarcastically in phanon now. Wes has also been given a brother Kyle Weston who, as a foil of Wes, is a relaxed teen boy who does not believe in ghosts at all. 

Taylor, on the phone: What’s up, Aiden?

Aiden: I’m sitting in a pool of blood.

Taylor: …Um, is it YOUR blood?

Aiden: I think so.

Taylor: Do you know where the blood’s coming from?

Aiden: Probably the stab wound.

Taylor: YOU’VE BEEN STABBED?!

Aiden: Oh, yeah, definitely.

fuck disappearing under mysterious circumstances i want to start APPEARING under mysterious circumstances. walking through a deserted eerie forest? im there. exploring an abandoned 1930s mine that no human has set foot in for 55 years? there too. touching down on mars? guess whose annoying face you see poking out from behind a rover

Flower crowns are awesomeee

not rlly proud of how it turned out but might as well post it

a StarCube interaction I thought it'd fit

I started sketching it in an online class but u can tell by quality when it ended lmao

also came to realise that we didn't see that much of those two together but I bet it'd be fun ( "normal nerd with a crazy nerd how would it end ?")

Whilst reading this string of reblogs I created an OC randomly so I thought it only appropriate to share with the inspiration feather dusters

Person (???) spawns into existence and decides to make it everyone's problem (an Emanator of aha)

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

Ocs, I don’t come across them often, but they pop up from time to time.

So… have you ever made an oc? It could be for anything.😅

i actually have a stash of like 20 ocs in the back of my brain do you want me to list a brief description of all of my hsr ocs and you choose from those funny descs which ones you wanna hear about?

I miss this cringey and controversial as the dream smp is I was happy in a way I'm not anymore, like I'm still happy but like it's the cheap knock off version
