Gojo Satoru is the prime example of a character whose very existence is rooted in weaponisation. His dehumanisation is so severe that it serves as a point of origination for who he really is. And while it is a fact that Gojo, as the strongest sorcerer, cares very little for his inherent weaponisation, it still doesn’t make his character any less tragic. Canonically speaking, Gojo used his weaponisation to bring his long term goals into motion, without his dehumanisation, the narrative would be very fractured. This is why the hidden inventory arc was the rawest, most jarring arc of the entire series because not only does Gojo get a taste of normalcy but gets hooked onto it to the point that he, a weapon of the Jujutsu society, lets a mass murderer roam freely for ten years. Gojo’s weaponisation is tragic when you see it from the lenses of a viewer. Because at his very core, he is human, which is why his blue spring of youth serves as the point where the entire trajectory of the manga changes because it is when he experiences something akin to normalcy. Obviously this doesn’t take away from the fact that Gojo himself uses his weaponisation to his convenience and often asserts himself a weapon to fulfil his motives but it just gives a lot more dimension to his character. He is not someone who pities himself for being a weapon, because he has honed himself as a weapon, along with the very narrative but that doesn’t take away from his innate humanness.

From having a bounty on his head from the moment he was born to experiencing a taste of youth, to loving and living and losing and then dedicating himself to give the next generation of sorcerers the youth they deserve, to fighting and dying by the hands of the strongest. Gojo fulfils his role not only as a weapon but also a human.

[fossilosipher]

I enjoy coming on tumblr every once in a blue moon and having my day ruined first thing after waking up. I don’t know what I’d do without this. Thank you 🥹

[pitohuimaki]

see i think the thing is that kazuto loathes himself entirely while also knowing deep down he deserves to be at peace with himself and his choices but even deeper down he’s convinced his birth was the end of every good thing in the world

[pitohuimaki]

kazuto has been intrinsically suicidal since he was a young teenager and not understanding that is the number one error people make when they misinterpret his character

benrook marriage.... they will have a summer wedding......

(lore: summer on revonnah is extremely short and mostly spent inside, but a summer wedding is seen as good luck or a product of the harvest. it's a tradition amongst revonnahganders to paint their partners markings on themselves when getting married (since Ben has none rook paints scars on his chest)

[fossilosipher]

it is late, the worms will not allow me rest and I require stimulation. So.

Ask me things about things and I shall answer those things- perhaps I shall even do a little scribbling upon a canvas ✨

Ben 10 Omniverse isn't a terrible show, but it often misses its mark for the sake of comedy. And it's not even good comedy either; it's the same old "Lol. Ben's so lazy, ignorant, and irresponsible. It's a wonder how he keeps the Omnitrix at all! LMFAO" And it's like, okay, we get it. Everyone thinks Ben is a moron, but if Ben's a moron, what does that make the people who lose to him? 🤨

One of the times Omniverse misses the mark on what could have been a legendary episode akin to Adventures Time's "The Hall of Egress." It is the episode Universe v. Tennyson.

The episode about Ben going to trial for recreating the universe. Besides seeing Alien X fight, the episode doesn't make any sense. And I entirely blame writers. They did not think of the logistics of how a trial of this sort of magnitude would actually go. I wouldn't be surprised if the trial was just an excuse to see the celestialsapiens in action.

They wanted a reason to explain the different art styles and all the retcons. Which in itself is stupid. As the audience, we know why specific changes are made. They didn't need to hand-feed us retconning; it always happens.

But more to the point, the entire trial is a sham. And it pissed me off to no end!

1. Ben was never subpoenaed. Alien or not, you can't part the sky like the Red Sea and drag someone to court. You have to set an official date and time for trial, allow the defense to acquire a lawyer, and build their defense. This is basic shit, and if your excuse is that it's just a kids cartoon, that doesn't excuse bad writing.

I just can't stand when people brush over essential details.

2. Only in certain circumstances can you forcefully take a person to court. And that is if the suspected criminal is considered a danger to the public or a flight risk. And even then, it's an immediate arrest before going to court for a hearing. Ambush arrests are considered a last resort; considering Ben's positions as a plumber and wielder of the Omnitrix, Ben has little to no criminal record.

3. Due process, refering back to my earlier point, the celestial sapiens would have needed to give notice of charges, and Ben would need to be heard in front of an impartial tribunal. The entire universe is not an impartial jury. There's a reason any Rando can't walk into a courtroom and decide whether a person is guilty. What if several people aren't even aware of the trial? That could skewer the vote in favor of the Plaintiff (Celestialsapiens)

If the writers on Omniverse weren't so focused on having a hate boner for the main character, this could have been a great episode. And it is a hate boner because why else would they pick Mr. Baumann as the first witness. This dude had beef with Ben since early childhood before having the Omnitrix. His opinion is beyond biased.

Also, Rook took the first chance to air his petty grievances with Ben in front of the entire universe in a court of law, and that is beyond shitty. Ben being "ignorant of many things" isn't a proven fact; it's a personal opinion. Also, being ignorant is a crime?

And had Ben been sentenced to death or died in the trial by combat, what was the plan afterward? Rook carries Ben's body to his mother and says,

"Sorry, Ms. Tennyson, your minor child didn't have the mental knowledge and fortitude of a 50-year-old veteran; his death was totally justified. "

If Ben is ignorant of many things, it is because he is young and has only just started exploring the universe. Many toddlers should be behind bars if simply being uninformed is a crime. It's like the show constantly forgets that Ben is still young but insists on punishing him for it.

The court case is to decide whether Ben recreated the universe; his lack of knowledge and irresponsibility are not up for debate. Besides, Rook has only known Ben for a few months; I doubt that makes him a sound judge of character.

I wish they had brought different people to the witness stand. They could have made excellent callbacks by bringing characters like

Tetrax- He is literally the guardian of Omnitrix and decided that even at age 10, the Omnitrix was safe in Ben's hands. Also, the fact that Ben restores the planet Petropia can be used to defend Ben's recreation of the universe. 

Reinrassig III- I'm sure the word of Highbreed Supreme would hold more weight in court than Mr. Bauman. A small store owner on a tiny planet in the far corner of the galaxy. 

Queen Cicely of the Lewodan( ep. Con of Rath) - The mother of the Tiffin, you know, the baby Ben jumped down a man's throat to save. Ben broke the law by doing that but still prevented a massive war. 

Magister Hulka- (ep. Basic Training) Hulka is a well-decorated Plumber and was Ben's academy instructor. Ben passed with flying colors despite disobeying orders, saving Hulka's life. He even gave Ben his medal for creativity and effective tactics. His word holds more weight than Rook Blonko's, a literally rookie in the plumber association.

Azmuth- do I even need to say anything?

Maxx and Xylene are more than familiar with the Omnitrix and Ben himself. 

Paradox is literally the number one expert on the subject.

Could you imagine the cross-examination with these characters? 

And even without proper character witnesses, Ben could argue that what is illegal is not always morally right.

What is the actual crime, the crime of caring too much? And if his crime is recreating the universe without prior permission. The celestialspaiens were a hidden society; how would he have gotten permission?  

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

If Ben was the only living thing left after the universe was destroyed, did he really break the law since no one was there to uphold it?

Especially since he created the universe up until the very moment it was destroyed, so no time would have passed at all.  

Ben's other option was leaving that universe for dead, and pulling a Rick and Morty, but he didn't do that cause he's not a sociopath. 

The only angle that makes sense for this trial to happen is if it wasn't to prosecute Ben, but to send a message. The message that Celestialsapiens are not to be trifled with and that any attempts will be met with extreme prejudice and even death by combat.

The Celestialsapiens have recreated the universe multiple times, with even more drastic changes than just a smoothie flavor. I mean, Grandpa Max can't even open his eyes, and Azmuth's voice has changed several times. They literally point that out in the episode, and yet this is the first time a trial has ever been broadcasted to the universe.

In fact, this is the first time any other aliens have seen a celestialsapien save for Alien X. And even he was deemed a myth. So why now? Why the grand fan fair? Why broadcast the trial at all? They never notified the universe before.

 It's because the celestial aliens were afraid for the first time since their conception. Their entire beings were briefly erased from existence and recreated, and they did not like it! Do you honestly believe that they changed anything about themselves after recreating the universe multiple times? Of course not!  

But Ben doing that sent the species into a mental spiral of worry and anguish with the fear of not being completely yourself. The same curse they've placed upon the universe prior without any hint of guilt.

The trial was about establishing dominance to keep Ben from recreating the universe regardless of his reasoning. But also to prevent other aliens from attempting the same thing. That's why the trial was broadcasted through the galaxy. This was just a bunch of dick-swinging, so the celestialsapiens don't have to face any sort of actual accountability. 

[fossilosipher]

will I explain what these are for? Nope, I absolutely won’t :D

I have… so many unfinished projects n things that I need to post, they’re fr just clogging up my memory 😔

especially for what I’ve got planned- I’m very excited to make substantial progress on that! For now though, mere doodles without any context ✨

(I remembered I can post unfinished things and wips and not feel inadequate for taking so long on it ha)

Have this also, it makes me giggle whenever I open the canvas cuz I forget I drew it

[reaegis]

told ya i've been drawing heroes united stuff- well that last one is a bit old and it lowkey shows but it's the same thing.

[pitohuimaki]

wait if you’re queer can you reblog and tag if you ever had a crush on an sao character, who it was, and your sexuality?? i’m very curious about this now

[fossilosipher]

HEY TUMBLR, FIRST POST OF 2023- HOW WE FEELIN?

‘Cuz the year has *just* started and my life is already falling apart :D

Fear not though! The brainrot is still strong and is currently the only thing keeping me sane! So here, have three of the Schwartz’s (I am very sorry Ducktales fans I will get there eventually, I promise-) hanging out and chilling in fluffy socks! Yes, I have fluffy socks so they get fluffy socks therearnootherreasonsforthesocksshush-

What are they talking about? I dunno, you decide 🤷‍♀️

[fossilosipher]

ooo look at that, I lived

this time I come bearing Leafa, of whom I have grown viscously attached to recently upon rewatching the alicization and war of underworld arcs

I sorta had the thought the first time but like… they fr did the girl dirty 💀

only ability they gave her was infinite healing (could be smth I missed in the light novels but I havent read em yet, please put down your torches) and said go nuts and, entirely unsurprisingly considering she was up against an actual army, things didn’t go too great for her

so now im heavily thinking about an au where she still controls and heals using terraria’s abilities but can also use them offensively and defensively as part of her moveset cause let’s be real, she kinda drew the short straw 

I’ll have to think of a drawback but nothing’s set yet so 🤷‍♀️

(I had thought about drawing her alo avatar but like 1) the terraria outfit is so fucking cool??? and 2) i despise everything to do w the alo arc honestly- just really didn’t enjoy the incest yk? also just the entire sugou situation?? yeeeaaaaah no thank you)

[fossilosipher]

I completely forgot I did these pffft-

Today was kinda a rough day so I just decided “fuck it, Nyxl time” and boom, here we are, I guess! I also sorta maybe made a bunch of other ocs to be apart of the yet to be named band??

I’m not sure of my thought process during this tbh- all I had on my mind was meeting a deadline for my art portfolio lol

Now I gotta decide on names aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAA-

[fossilosipher]

can you tell the little mass knocking around in my cranium is frying?

its 3 in the morning and I haven’t slept yet- was this worth it? i can’t tell, it’s very difficult to form thought rn

microwave go mmmmmmmmmmmm

[fossilosipher]

Betcha thought I was dead huh? Thought you were rid of me?

That’s right! I have returned bearing a sleepy Zak wearing Rex’s jacket as a gift- no need to thank me ✨ 

No but seriously- hyperfixation said I had to focus on SBI and Arcane and absolutely refused to let me function normally for the looongest time. I’ve just been in family dynamic limbo this entire time and honestly? It was really fun but I remembered I basically abandoned my tumblr and was kinda like “oh shit” so here I am

Might post the dsmp stuff I’ve been scribbling but jury’s still out on that so ʅ（◞‿◟）ʃ
