inactive blog; left up for archival purposes

i dont post.

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

Are you okay?

yeah, i’m fine. i’m doing great, honestly, the last six months have been awful for the world but i’ve been writing a lot and i somehow managed to gain a partner during quarantine.

i stopped posting -- i don’t actually know how long ago it was but two years sounds right? because it turned out that i am really bad at remembering to post once a week and you can’t queue fewer than one per day, and i didn’t know 90% of the characters being requested, and it was in general more work than was worth it, and then on top of all that i deconverted, so the blog is inactive now; i’m leaving it up mostly as an archive.

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Sydney Strange

(She likes Pesach best, though you’d have to twist her arm to get her to tell you why. Just try to catch her being sentimental, you won’t.)

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Doctor Stephen Strange

(So you aren’t meant to go messing around with the fundamental forces of the universe. But really, was he supposed to hear a question and not try to answer it?)

🖕 Jew kike

Did you know, this is the first hate mail I’ve gotten that was for my religion and not for my Star Wars headcanons?

Anyways, one for the blocklist, everyone. Don’t bother harassing them, they send people IMs and then turn off messaging because they’re a coward.

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Emma (The Promised Neverland)

(With enemies behind them and no guarantee of safety ahead, some might think it foolish to even consider leaving. And yet, when it is said that whoever saves one life has saved the whole world, how could she do anything but try to lead her brothers and sisters to freedom?)

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Tony Stark 

(Some people could fly, or wield magical hammers formed in the hearts of dying stars, or turn into giant green rage monsters. Others had to live on their wits. 

....and the ability to survive hundred-foot falls, but let’s not talk about that.)

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Merle Hightower Highchurch

(I think you choose joy in life.) 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Pidge Gunderson 

(“You can’t keep me out! I’ll find the truth - I’ll never stop!”) 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Angela “Mercy” Ziegler 

(People assumed the strangest things about you when you wore wings. It’s like they didn’t realize that more than one tradition has angels.) 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

I am turning anon off, not because anyone did anything wrong, but because I strongly prefer to be able to answer asks privately. Thank you for your understanding.

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Cassian Andor 

(Rebellions, they say, are built on hope.)

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This worked last time, let’s try it again. Anon ask responses under the cut. 

Characters who got yes: Mercy and Lucio from Overwatch, Spike Spiegel, bookverse Sherlock Holmes, Nadine Ross from  Uncharted 4, Wednesday Addams, Aerith from Final Fantasy, Tali’Zorah from Mass Effect, Mark Cohen, Jeremy Schecter 

Characters who got no: Nobody, this round! 

Characters who got a different answer:  Jamie Wellerstein is canonically Jewish, but I really do not like The Last Five Years and prefer not to interact with it, so if you submit your own picture and blurb I will publish that but I’m  not going to create one

I don't really know the rules here, so can you request animation/anime/game characters? Sorry if it's a dumb question...

You can request characters from any franchise you like* but if I don’t know the character it will take me a while to get to that request. 

*as long as they are in fact fictional; no Hamilton characters or real-life singers, please! 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Galadriel 

(She was never as devout as her oldest brother - too stubborn to live under the Valar, too fast-paced, too ambitious for Valinor’s unending peace. Fine by her.) 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

This week’s Jewish character of the week is: Han Solo 

(He hadn’t meant to get sucked up in this rebellion, but once he was there, he wasn’t leaving.) 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

I headcanon tevye the milkman as jewish

New rule: before you send in a request, please check the blog to see if I have already done a post for the character you intend to request. 

[jewishcharacteroftheweek]

I headcanon Jesus of Nazareth as jewish!

very funny. 

but sure, why not.
