Some Actually Useful Questions to Get to Know Your OC Part Two

↳ What lie do they tell themselves to sleep at night? Seriously. What’s the little piece of denial that keeps them functioning? Do they pretend they don’t care what people think? Tell themselves they’re over that one person? Convinced they’re not the villain of someone else’s story? We all lie to ourselves; your OC is no exception.

↳ What’s their emotional kryptonite? A specific thing that absolutely shatters them, like someone crying? Being ignored? Praise from a parent figure? The sound of an old song? The smell of something nostalgic? Find it and use it against them (lovingly, of course).

↳ When do they feel the most alive? Is it mid-battle, mid-baking, mid-breakup? Does adrenaline light them up, or do they find joy in the quiet, mundane things, like folding laundry while listening to sad girl music? This can reveal a LOT about what drives them.

↳ What would totally ruin their day? A bad haircut? Someone touching their stuff? Or is it something deeper, like being reminded of their failures, or seeing someone else succeed where they couldn’t?

↳ Who do they think they should be? And who are they really? This one’s juicy. Do they think they should be a hero, but keep acting like a villain?

↳ What’s the one thing they’d never admit out loud, even under duress? The shameful thought. The inappropriate desire. The thing they desperately want but don’t think they deserve. DONT FORGET: Characters are built on what they repress.

↳ What are they petty about? Don’t pretend your OC is above this, I mean everyone’s petty about something. Do they hold grudges over stolen pens? Get irrationally jealous of someone’s hair? Still mad about a game of Uno from 2007? Petty makes them fucking real.

↳ How do they act when they think no one’s watching? Do they let their mask slip? Dance around the kitchen? Talk to their cat in baby voice? Cry a little?

↳ What would make them snap? Where is the breaking point? What line has to be crossed for them to finally say “Enough”? Is it injustice? Betrayal? Feeling powerless? You’ll know you’ve found it when it scares you a little (Or a lot).

↳ If they had a theme song, what would it be? No, seriously. The vibe of a character’s soundtrack says a lot. Is it Angsty indie rock? Bubblegum pop masking deep pain? Make a playlist. Your OC will tell you who they are... <3

I think the most interesting thing about Belos’ constant cloning of his brother (and killing them), is that it serves no purpose whatsoever. He’d already figured out how to make grimwalkers before obtaining the Collector and he wasn’t concerned with returning to the Human Realm at the time, either. His reasoning for making the grimwalkers was separate from every other goal he had in the Boiling Isles. He considers it a failed project every time, and yet he continues to make them for 400 years. I made a post a few days ago asking if Belos intended for Hunter to die on the Day of Unity—and I think it might not have occurred to him that he could. He speaks about “dealing” with Hunter before he can make another grimwalker, even the day of. They’re like his side hobby to his mission—I don’t think he realized the Day of Unity would change that. I feel like had he been completely successful with the Day of Unity, he still would have continued to make grimwalkers until the day he died, even after returning to the Human Realm.

What i find about Philip's story so dramatic is that he never gets "his perfect brother back" because its impossible to restore what Philip and Caleb had, and thst the brother Philip has jn mind is his idealised version of Caleb, as he looked up to him a lot in his childhood.

He is frustrated that boy wasn't real, that Caleb was a man with his own desires and life, and Philip needs to bring that back somehow. Throw abuse of power, manipulation - everything to become the same little boy again. But the truth is, he is one who ruined what they could've had. But he can't accept it. Philip accepting his mistakes means that all this was for nothing, that his revenge on Clawthornes and witches was for nothing.

That's why Philip has to keep on making grimwalkers, drowning his sense of guilt

I’m not even much of a fan of belos but it feels like a lot of the toh fandom is weirdly aggressive towards belos fans for no good reason

[ribaiore]

I feel like it originates from people wsnting to appear morally superior to others. But no, baby! Just have fun! We are in fandom, not on the final judgement

Not wittober art, but just reminding about basic internet etiquette bc it seems some mfs forgot

stop posting hate under the wittober tag if you don't like the event

i personally think people who hates something and then continues to actively engage on it are massive losers

it is very mind-boggling to actively engage on something that you don't like

Let people enjoy in their own sub-fandom space when they're just minding their own business holy shit

[let-us-cultivate-our-garden]

For those who need context: someone made a post complaining about why, oh why can't Belos fans talk about how he's a metaphor for all the evils in this world and not about how he was an abandoned child who struggled to fit in?

You can do both, Sharon.

And stop policing how people engage in fandom. Exploring the empty spaces in a text is foundational to fandom and you do it all the time, Sharon, so stop being a massive hypocrite and let people enjoy the moldy Puritan.

[ribaiore]

Like come on he is fictional. I know he represents actual problems but by criticising an old man from the owl show for children of age of 7 and above doesn't change the world. However, not being miserable does.

hi guys im not dead, i just got extremely depressed and unhealthily dedicating myself on science + academics to the point my physical and mental health got severely affected (classic asian canon event)

anyways im back on my belos bullshit, the elk house content will follow suit, ily and i missed you all crazy bastards

[stemms]

While I enjoy The Owl House for its captivating plot, fascinating characters, accurate and respectful representation of the LGBTQIA+ community, and strong character development, I find that the ending leaves something to be desired. Specifically, I would like to address Belos’ death. His character is fascinating, complex, and significant to the narrative, so I feel that, although he obviously deserved to face the consequences of his actions, his death should have been treated with more gravity and significance rather than mockery.

To me, Belos has always been an example of a well-crafted, complex villain, marked by internal conflicts, fears masked by a stern façade, regrets, and a flawed worldview. His delusional belief that his monstrous actions serve a noble purpose sets him apart from the typical villain, whose sole motivation is an insatiable desire for power and chaos.

Even the smallest glimpses into Belos' backstory reveal his complexity, making him… painfully human despite his desperate attempts to project an image of divinity and power. While his actions are undeniably inhumane — marked by obsession and unwarranted hatred toward witches — his backstory exposes a vulnerable, sobbing child, and a young man consumed by envy and fear of abandonment by his brother. This perspective shifts him from a mere cruel Emperor driven by a thirst for power, to a mere human full of insecurities.

While Belos’ past doesn't excuse his horrific actions, it sheds light on his motivations and twisted worldview, which would remain opaque without this context. Exploring more of his backstory would allow us to uncover vital details about the way his past influenced his future life, his mission to spread the “Titan’s Will” across the Boiling Isles, and so much more.

If only Belos’ vulnerable, human side had been explored more deeply, we could have seen the stark contrast between his imposing exterior and his inner loneliness and misery in more detail. This exploration would suggest that his public persona wasn’t just manipulation to gain the witches’ trust, but also the act of self-deception in an attempt to convince himself that his actions were for the greater good, while also trying to fill the void within him.

This being said, the scene of Belos’ death was quite the opposite, as it was treated as nothing more than a comic relief, completely undermining his character journey. After his entire body melted, he was casually stepped on by Luz and her friends, which felt jarring given the weight of his character, and was simply unnecessary. I believe that even if Belos’ death stayed the exact same, but the last part was removed, it would’ve been so much more tolerable.

[ribaiore]

PEOPLE GET IT NOW! back when wad aired, i feel like i was the only one complaining and feeling like his death wasn't....satisfying at all. People would say that if you wanted something BUT belos being stomped on in a comedic situation, you are his apologiser and basically a coloniser and im like?? No. Belos is so much more than the evil dude who commits atrocities. He is so complex. And yes i want to see him SUFFER. Maybe see caleb as he dies, his life flying before his eyes...something more intense and painful

"In her book "Girls Who Like Boys Who Like Boys", Lucy Neville argues that male-male erotica, Boys Love, slashfic, yaoi are very popular among women in part because they make more space for versatility and fluidity than heterosexual conventions will allow.

If women were submissive by nature, why would they sexually identify with men to this extent?"

To anyone considering not voting because of the Palestinian genocide, I have this to ask:

How many Palestinian people do you think you're helping by laying back and inviting the GOP to crush you under foot? Self flagellation didn't cure The Plague, and it won't fix this situation either.

If you don't like the idea of voting for Harris, I doubt I'll be able to change your mind, but consider this: 468 congressional seats out of a total 535 are up for re-election THIS NOVEMBER. You want to make the government start actually representing the will of the people? Start there.

We're living in frightening times, and apathy is a very comfortable state of being, but you need to act. If you don't, who will?

[traycakes]

The GOP and the DNC do not have the same policy regarding Palestine, either. It's not just Americans the GOP will crush.

Trump has given full support to the genocide and said that the US needs to stop holding Israel back so they can finish quickly. Harris has supported for a peace deal while refusing to put pressure on Netanyahu to accept it.

These are not the same policy, even if neither one will stop the killing. And if you plan on doing more protests Harris might actually cave in to your demands while Trump will just order federal agents to kill you, now that he can get away with that.

Don't pretend not voting is somehow helping Palestinians. If Trump wins things will be worse for literally everyone except billionaire fascists.

[ribaiore]

Exactly! People are just dumb. Its either peace for minorities and ANYONE who is not a rich white cishet american man in america OR a psycho who will assert dictatorship.
