a crumb of demo thoughts perhaps
Demo is like the one of the handful of tf2 characters that I will let myself psychoanalyze without feeling like I’m going too insane for doing it. His birth parents gave him up. He was adopted. He blew up his adoptive parents. His birth parents showed up and said “psyche we see now that you have talent and use we’ll take you back now”. He works to meet literal impossible standards. He’s an alcoholic. He loves his friends. He loves his friends so much. Ok? Ok. It’s just so much. (also there’s the wizard thing. Also the identity issues. the cyclops complex.) like brother if I grew up like that I would day drink and blow things up too! Good fucking god!
idk also just sort of thinking how he’s kind of the most outwardly nice and friendly merc, at least as far as the official comics are concerned. He makes sure to assure soldier that he’ll recognize him in disguise, he’s the one to grab onto sniper after he’s shot, he’s got the big dumb smile in the “we’re team fortress, and you’re DEAD” lineup. I don’t even know where I’m GOING with any of this. I’m just sort of fascinated by him. He’s a guy with so much going on and he’s dealing with it but no he’s not (alcoholic) but yes he is (cares for his friends) but no he’s not (hinged his happiness on his one job he cared about and crumbled after he lost it) but also yes he is (gestures fucking wildly)
random post about some of my version of the BLU mercs!!
I haven’t drawn all of them yet so while I find motivation to do that, take these!!!
PART 1
So, something I learnt the other day. So, you know how dinosaurs supposedly can't see you if you stand still? Well that myth is based on real-life lizards/etc and how eyes in general work. So, once my dad starts infodumping, here comes some other cool information. We, humans, can in fact, also not see something unless it's moving. We fixed this by having our eyes constantly shake. And then our brain compensates for us, so we don't have to have shaky vision.
What if aliens don't have this? Like. What if they find out when one of us was looking at something in the distance, and they walk around this thing that's in front of them, and the alien is confused so they bob their head and oh, there's a thing there, but how did the human know that, and then we explain and they're like, horrified.
Humans are apex predators. They can hunt in packs. They can hunt in pairs. They can hunt on their own. They're persistance predators, which is unheard of. They get stronger when they're mad or scared. They have this thing called 'body language' which acts like a type of hivemind, even if they'll claim it isn't. And. They can see you. When you're not moving. They can still see you. If you ever find yourself in a fight against a human, for whatever reason? Run. Run as fast as you can. And hope, pray if you have a religion, that they won't follow.

isabelle i literally have no idea what you’re talking about
pizza puffs is so important to me personally. a true microcosm of raph's struggles
currently hyperfixating so
stupid au where gen loss ranboo somehow escapes and ends up stranded in the middle of New Mexico where a bunch of stupid mercs are fighting
or a Gen Loss/Ride the Cyclone crossover au
Y’all get mad at Jessica - the black Woman doing her job and trying to hold the multiverse together so her baby can have a universe to live in more than y’all blame Peter, the whites man who knew and trained Miles and still chose to believe he was an anomaly.
Like Peter TAUGHT Miles how to swing and he still was like ‘oh yeah miguel that makes sense yeah miles isn’t suppose to be spiderman’ HOW
