im spam posting now. cuz im home alone and stir crazy.

i think fugo is passively suicidal in the way that like. he doesnt want to get hit by a car, but he would sacrifice himself for any of his loved ones at the drop of a hat. like the Second he thinks someone cant handle what's coming, hes taking it. bullets, knives, you name it.

he would think hes doing a noble service for his friends, but none of them would prefer him dead. and fugo cant seem to wrap his head around it.

i meed to give fugo my problems (authority figure who cant accept 'no' to the most basic things)

aka make bucciarrati much more controlling of him

[iixarche]

i just think that bucciarrati would see himself as the most correct person ever and cant handle people disagreeing with him about some things.

like he respects fugos opinion on work matters (most of the time), but personal stuff? bucciaratis always right.

[iixarche]

i think i need to finally make ocs of bucciaratis original team like ive been itching to for a week or two

like he HAD to have been on someone elses team before starting his own. what happened to his past team? ......give me a few days to figure it out XD

i have fixated on this so bad that ive briefly forgotten about my sugar system au 😭

but like. how am i supposed to not get fixated on this 😆 im trying to convince myself not to write Another long fic about it

[iixarche]

idk why but tumblr keeps like. duplicating my posts. so if you see a double dont mind it its just being weird

i think..... leone abbacchio should be worse. he depressed hes an alcoholic hes easily agitated, but how would that actually show? does he take care of himself? what if he never trimmed his hair while growing out so the ends are all stiff and unhealthy. how often does he force himself to brush his teeth? how often does someone (most likely bucciarrati) have to drag him home from the bar? how often does he pass out on the couch and stay there for hours?

im just like. hes still grieving a heavy loss that he still blames himself for after like two or three years. theres no way in my mind that hes perfectly functional after that.

i cant stand it when people draw rohan with an ass. he has no ass believe you me. i will die on this hill.

honestly, having flexibility in your headcanons is such an important skill to develop as a fandom participant. like, it's great to have strong opinions of your own, but don't you want to hear what strong opinions others hold? I love being compelled by a passionate argument! go off! tell me something I don't assume! give me the tea that's not inherent to my watching!

No one asked but here are my thoughts on a golden wind post-canon au.

Ok first off I know I’m a Fugo fan with a phf reference username but I do not agree with most of the contents of that book. I would take the bare bones outline of it (six months after golden wind Giorno contacts Fugo and gives him a special mission to get rid of the narcotics division) and discard all the rest. While it has been pointed out that Fugo did not actually leave Passione in the boat scene, quite the opposite in fact, I could see him lying low after Giorno takes over. This could either be in the form of joining another small-time local subunit or of trying to hide from Passione altogether (while I don’t think the second option is as plausible, I do like it purely because it gives me a chance to give him a little makeover lol). Giorno via Mista then finds him and instead of it being a test of his loyalty, the mission is more of a “I want to see what you can really do and I was already planning on killing these guys anyways so who cares” kind of thing.

Side note on the narcotics unit: I hateeeee phf’s narcotics unit. There is no was that like five people can control an entire country’s drug trade. And the shit about Massimo’s stand making a superdrug that replaces all the other drugs is stupid. They have to be actually importing real drugs. They can’t just do magic drugs. My idea of the narcotics unit would be an upper management that control the imports with subunits that control local distribution.

Ok this is getting long the rest is under the cut. Will add more when I have more thoughts.

As for Giorno’s inner circle, I also really disagree with phf’s portrayal of Mista’s superstition. No he would not be afraid of being second in command. He is specifically afraid of choosing one thing out of a selection of four things. Like firing one bullet out of a selection of four. Or getting one slice of cake out of a selection of four. Not just the number four in general. And certainly not the number two. I also think that Polnareff wouldn’t want to be officially part of the mafia. Like, he hangs around because he thinks Giorno is a good guy and the only other option is going towards that big boulangerie in the sky but he’s not exactly a gangster. So Mista would have to be Giorno’s right hand man by process of elimination. I think part of the reason you could give for Giorno reaching out to Fugo and giving him a chance could simply be because he literally doesn’t have anyone else in Passione he can trust. His current inner circle is just a guy with a gun so he’ll take all the allies he can get. More on that later though.

As for Trish, I think she would initially try to get as far away from Passione shit as possible, and Giorno and Mista would have no objections. However, you know what they say about stand users attracting each other. And seeing as most of the other stand users in Italy also happen to be Passione members, staying entirely clear of gang business would be very difficult. She also has a real bond with Giorno and Mista just by virtue of going through the same traumatic shit with them, so I think she’d eventually find herself in their vicinity again. There would be a kind of love-hate relationship I think where she thinks they’re the only people that understand her situation but she also kind views it as their fault that she still has to deal with stand/mafia bullshit.

Fugo would eventually be added to Giorno’s trusted inner circle, but I don’t think it could expand much further. While we know that Diavolo’s issues started well before he took over Passione, the role of mafia boss inherently comes with a heap of paranoia around rival gangs and backstabbers. Especially with how sudden Giorno’s takeover was. Though honestly, due to Diavolo’s insistence on hiding his identity and impersonal correspondence with subordinates, I doubt that there’s anyone in Passione who was all that loyal to him as a person. I think that over the first few months as boss Giorno would grow more and more aware of exactly what he got himself into, and would start to experience a lot of stress and paranoia. Eventually though he would get the hang of things.

None of this is particularly coherent but when am I ever.

The fanon consensus regarding Fugo's first name seems to be that they hate it or at least actively dislike it which, although is a fair take because we literally have no information on that either way, I think is a shame somewhat, because other options are also really crunchy and interesting.

In the sense that how fucking sad would it be if Fugo didn't mind his name and was neutral abt it, but every single adult outside of his family just naturally gravitated towards their last name always, either due to various degree of adultification or personal discomfort and sense of weirdness with the name disguised as professionalism (random rich person voice I am not calling this kid Cooked Cream, like nice status symbol to name your kid that but idk. At least I can call them by their family name, since they're so MatureTM), and it further emphasized the lack of warmth and care and love in Fugo's life. And Fugo FEELING it and learning that yeah, people don't like my first name and are allergic to using it, and accommodating others this way and internalizing all the possible implications that brings (people don't want to get close to me, they think my name is embarrassing => they think it's embarrassing to be close to me, people rely on me being mature, what I want isn't important, other people's comfort and preferences matter more than mine, etc.). Like, I personally think Fugo is actually neutral towards his name and has just gotten used to it all and doesn't have any strong feelings towards it anyway because, well, it’s easier in many ways to default to your last name, so why not lean into that convenience, but just thinking abt a kid feeling hurt and confused abt why nobody is calling them by their name, that people prioritize their family's legacy over them as a person, and they LIKE being called by their name because that implies closeness, care, love, but people feel awkward abt using that name, thus signaling that they feel awkward fulfilling the kid's emotional needs and sense of self.

Like, as much as I think the trope is overdone and too catered to romantic situations as well as carrying some minor baggage, I think that in Fugo’s case he would cherish specific ppl he’s close to using his first name and nicknames, after taking literal weeks of continuous exposure to get used to it and emotionally tune in to the fact he likes it because their knee-jerk reaction would be surprise and this sort of “but you don’t have to use it, you can always call me Fugo as always” neutrality.

i usually headcanon fugo as listening to a lot of goth adjacent music, like deftones depeche mode and the cure, but i also think hed fuck up evanescence's fallen album when it came out

imagine: its 2003, fugo is back in passione and mista is STILL being weird about it. yes fugo would fuck up the album about religious trauma, betrayal and rape

[iixarche]
