Kkkkk :v

Does killua ever get sick? (I’m dying from a fever ughhhh)

To those who think Silva isn't manipulating Killua with the blood pact...

.... he actually got secretly mad when Killua brought it up.

"If I ignore a friend I have the ability to help, wouldn't I be betraying him?"

i can’t believe leorio fucking yells at gotoh over the phone using keigo (honorific language, v formal, often used for like…subordinate/superior relationships. not necessarily out of place for this context, if it weren’t for…the yelling lmao)

also worth noting that when gon had the same kind of conversation with gotoh, he used more formal language than usual (not keigo, but masu forms - he’s at about the age when japanese kids actually start learning keigo, i think) but only in the first call - he reverted to his usual speech pattern when he yelled at gotoh

tbh i feel like we’re beating a dead horse when it comes to tragedy and heartbreak and Killua. 

He is not some sad, broken, horrifically tragic character that you can [INSERT SELF HERE] and pull this angsty bullshit out of.

Yes, Killua was trained from birth to be an assassin. 

The Zoldycks are assassins. His family was the top most wanted and most wanted dead by all the descendants (family, mob members, etc.) of the people they’d been paid to assassinate over a countless number of years. Imagine if they hadn’t, at the very least, trained their children to withstand any misfortunate outcomes they would’ve encountered if they were to become abducted and used as hostages. Because that possibility was a sincere reality.

Let me say this again: the Zoldycks are assassins. They do not “beat” their children because they do not love them…they do not hurt their children because they are heartless monsters who take their rage and pain out on them.

And in their own sick, twisted way – in a way we cannot relate to – the Zoldycks actually love Killua. Yes, Silva was a manipulative asshole who essentially only wanted Killua to come back and be the heir – but still, he loves Killua. We think it’s wrong and we do not understand it, but that doesn’t mean it’s not true. The Zoldycks love each other in the only way they know how. 

They’re not a heartless, uncaring family. Yes, their ways of raising their children are different, unique and it’s fucked up, but those are their ways. This is what they believe in. The Zoldycks truly believe their methods are in their children’s best interest. 

They’re assassins!

And despite how fucked up it is, Killua took the best out of his abuse and turned it into something he could actually use to his advantage. Somebody trying to poison him? Nope, not fucking happening. Somebody trying to electrocute him? Nope, not fucking happening. A mother fucking serial killer trying to break his bones? Nope, not fucking happening. 

Oh look, he just ripped their heart out.

He got electrocuted as a kid? Aight, now lets watch him turn his aura into fucking electricity and kill these dickheads and take names.

Again, Killua makes the best out of his abuse. He is resilient. He owns it. And no, of course he’s not thankful for it. But he embraces it, he makes himself stronger because of it.

So why don’t we talk about that?

“Why do I like Killua so much? Because although he was abused, bro moved forward and came out on top.”

“Why is he my favorite character? Because he’s a god damn inspiration and the White Haired Kid Who Actually Lived.”

reasons why killua would make a shit heir to the zoldyck family

[ ] he doesnt wanna assasinate anymore

[ ] he wants to have friends

[X] He would gamble the fucking whole mountain away
