[ozonelasher]

i say this as someone who started out really liking The Boys and stuck with it for a while. i'm kind of glad it's starting to fizzle out in popularity bc not only have i not seen anything about it organically anywhere, but i'm also glad it's getting backlash for its wishy-washy politics (well. i say wishy-washy but they allowed a full-on war criminal on the cast so lol) & favoring the white supremacist & bigoted characters over their far too few characters of color

[ozonelasher]

i will be back after this week i prommy

[ozonelasher]

holy fuck is this semester beating my ass

[ozonelasher]

which tragic character from ancient greek literature are you?

cassandra

you are cassandra from the trojan women by euripides and agamemnon by aeschylus. people have tried to silence you one too many times, but you are resilient. your own dignity and agency have always come first, but at a great cost. you know yourself and your inner strength, but that won't ever stop you from feeling completely alone in the world. sometimes simply enduring the pain won't be enough, no matter how hard you want it to be. above all, you must never lose your unwavering hope in mankind, even as the world forsakes you. it is what keeps you human.

kaki never wants to have children & is really awkward around them bc shes scared of hurting them somehow (ptsd) but i love the idea of kids being curious and kind to her <3 they would love her bc shes pink...

"Is it that obvious?" His expression is that of amusement more than genuine curiosity, he had no desire to pretend he had a connection the planet, but to able to discern such a thing did put a smile on his face, "...I suppose claiming otherwise would be a waste of time."

It was always easy to tell if his identity was known to any mortal he met, for there'd usually be some sort of reaction the he had seen before: Anger, fear, or confusion were the most common ones. But no, she was quite clearly unfamiliar with the stranger in front of her which would put the two on a level field of familiarity.

Normally, he'd leave her be. After all, it hadn't seemed as though the person in front of him had any intention to ruin the peace and quiet he had attained for himself. But given his first two questions were incorrect, he figured there'd might as well be a third question given with a more satisfying answer received in turn.

Folding his arms behind his back, the god would simply stay in place as a small smile grew upon his face.

"If you may entertain another question from me, I'd be most grateful. What, exactly, are your intentions?"

The entire situation felt surreal, like she was caught in the middle of a strange, silly dream. In most cases, she would be alarmed at finding a stranger in the middle of nowhere—but for some reason, she found herself unusually disarmed by his nonchalance. She gawked at him for another beat until his following question finally registered.

“Ah…”

She blinked and held up the device in her hand for him to see—a powerful handheld camera, built with a casing that made it not only easy to hold in a single hand, but also withstand the elements.

“I am just here to help document this planet’s progress,” she told him. When she realized how vague that still was, she continued. “You see, people used to live here… But after the Planetary Trade Organization invaded and industrialized it, the climate became too extreme to live in... Among other things. So, the natives were forced to leave.”

The part she left out was that only the lucky were able to leave. There was no telling how many had perished—probably too many to even think about without her feeling immense grief. She opened her cloak and holstered the camera on a previously hidden tool belt before resting her hands on her hips.

“That was far before either of our times, though. Now, as you can see, nature is putting itself back in order here,” she continued, “and the descendants have shown interest in returning.”

“plots please” 👀

⤏ send me “plots please”

i think the main thing i'd love to explore with them is Vegito being confronted with someone one of his fusees' past (Vegeta) they didn't necessarily like. tho in Vegeta's case he probably hated Kaki by association since she was Zarbon's assistant/protege. we may have already talked about this a long time ago my memory is terrible my fault but in any case, whether or not Vegito has a reaction to that is completely up to you. on the other hand, the idea of Kaki meeting him and constantly being like "why does this guy seem so familiar to me" is hilarious to me LMAO

considering their 'opposing' personalities, how they get along could go either way. you make a point about your Vegito being not totally shallow & pompous, so i think there's room for them to get along. i do like the idea of Kaki getting the wrong idea of him at first only to realize that they have very similar problems & insecurities

guy who is liked by the general public vs. gal who is disliked by the public, but both are still feared for their strength.....there is something to explore there too. walk with me

[ozonelasher]

plots pleaseeee 🤲🏾

⤏ send me “plots please”

it kinda goes without saying that i kind of love 'close encounter' type first meets when doing crossovers with characters outside of Dragon Ball, especially when they don't typically (or never) deal with aliens. i know aliens are pretty commonplace in Marvel but i don't think Coffi is dealing with people from other planets on the regular so :3

to kinda build on that, love it when Kaki encounters civilians and kind of has to prove to them that shes not evil. of course I can't really make assumptions about what Coffi would think of Kaki right off the bat but. Kaki definitely doesn't "look" like the typical superhero I'll tell you that much lol so I wouldn't put it past anybody if they're scared of her

not really so much a plot because i really just wanna smoosh them together and see what happens...... Coffi is basically everything Kaki is not and they could either get along really really well or clash like hell. I imagine Kaki would get flustered a lot by her, since Coffi seems way more settled into her identity than Kaki is (tfw you were lowkey born in Colonial Imperialism Simulator 5 which robbed you of any opportunity to develop your own sense of self. sad). But Kaki's way more chill than she seems, so there's definitely a lot of room for them to be friends :3 maybe they can help each other like themselves

[ozonelasher]

i llike that sometimes kaki has the same vibes as lain iwakura in your artwork of her

you know i didnt get this ask until i googled the character you meant and like. yeah you're right. i think that kind of look is emblematic of the Haunted/Weird Girl archetype that was pretty popular back in the 90s/2000s, which is a vibe i tend to apply to kaki a lot

i think my main influences for her though where Kaede/Lucy from Elfen Lied and Xion from Kingdom Hearts. tho now i gotta check out serial experiments lain

[ozonelasher]

just popping in before i do some school writing (please kill me btw)

but i had this idea for kaki the other night where like, as a way to Kind Of address consumerism as a vehicle for fascist propaganda, i bring back the connection kaki had in her original backstory with the ginyu force by having her be a big fan of the ginyus as a kid, only for her to later become disillusioned & see them for the cruel, ruthless killers they really are

cuz like wayyyy back when (in like 2016 lol) kaki was written to be more anti-hero/villain, one of the plot beats for her story was that she was invited to join the ginyu force but refused it, which led to jeice being recruited instead. i feel like bringing this particular thing back as well as incorporating the fact that she used to look up to them as a kid would make her final showdown with them all the more powerful

[luminote]

Please. What am I supposed to do with myself?

[ozonelasher]

gonna try to slam dunk some drafts today, but while i'll be on spring break this week, i still have to do a lot of classwork & will still probably be kinda spotty as my education comes first <3 thanks to everyone for the patience
