i dont have like. a well-worded or fully developed way to say this, but i feel like (often white) people in the jrwi fandom (and really. any fandom) see non-white racial identity as an accessory to a character and not something that informs both the metatextual analysis of their arc and the story overall, as well as how you perceive and talk about the character. ESPECIALLY when it comes to headcanons.
for example, Lizzie's identity as a Black Woman (and honestly, if we wanna go farther, a Lesbian) cannot be removed from the context of the story. it's integral to how we the audience understand her character and how she interacts with the world. it's more impactful to her arc as a revolutionary.
conversely, if you were to say that it's your personal headcanon that both sides of Jay's family are Indigenous Native American*, there's a bit of a discomfort there with saying that her paternal side of the family, the one actively engaged in military oppression, colonization, and fascism, is Indigenous Native American. there's not any deeper thought other than throwing the racial identity onto her.
*also as a native person stop hc characters as "native" please specify a tribe we are NOT a monolith and idk if ur talking about her like she's Choctaw or Cherokee or Ojibwe or Navajo or WHAT! be specific
like is it not insane that yall see a black woman in a leadership position and instantly associate her with masculinity but you dont do the same for jay?
Check its Twinsduo crumbs tag. Fox is haunted by demons constantly and these demons are called Wilbur and Technoblade.
Twinsduo

once I went to the hospital for a checkup and they ended up hospitalizing me cause they thought something was wrong with my brain cause there was something in my eye. Turns out my eye is just Like That
I wrote fanfiction about Twinsduo and then went out to go to a DIFFERENT checkup like less than a month apart and got into a car accident (proceeded to write fanfiction while we waited for someone to pick us up cause the motorcycle wasn't drivable)
during that hospital stay they did a lumbar puncture and I was dying I think I felt like my head was explodingand painkillers but what did I do? Say it with me class I wrote Twinsduo fanfiction
Also none of these fics are posted except witherbloom cause I get too many ideas and they're all half written drabbles in my notes or the b plot server or dms with bea
Godspeed to your insane rambles, may twinsduo haunt you forevermore. Twinsduo. Twinsduo. It has appeared in my dms like the creature they are in the middle of the night and spoken the horrors of twinsduo into life, and I have watched, enraptured, with wide eyes as they weave their tortured soul into reality. Twinsduo. Twinsduo.
Im trans and my family keeps gifting me Harry Potter related things.
Ok so, I own a Technoblade shirt. The "officer, I dropkicked that child in self defense" shirt. I'm Italian. Most people in my irl family don't speak enough English to fully grasp it, and those who do think it's humorous. So hooray! Why is this here, then? My family is heavily religious, and sometimes we have priests over. Today we had 2. For dinner. Both of whom have English as a first language. I threw a shirt on, and guess what it was? It's fine, you'll say, they probably didn't notice. And I almost wanted to believe it. Until one of them gestured at me to catch my attention. "what have you got written on there? Oh, self defense. Okay" Anyways, I'll be sinking into the floor because of embarrassment if anyone is looking for me. This is the third time something like this has happened in front of a priest. Once I called someone in a call a whore when one came over. I had no idea he was coming over.
skittlebugg - skitt
they are Always going through some kind of herculean trial. i check their blog and it's like "oh okay skitt skittlebugg is suffering again" every tenth post. also i think the existence of ghostknife is like. a medical concern for them. i mean i can't see them but i'm pretty sure every time ghostknife is mentioned they start foaming at the mouth and / or gnawing on drywall. gotta be some kind of torture i think it counts.
i think if skitt wins the poll everyone should draw them ghostknife fanart in their honor
literally suffers so much. i love him but he's so tortured.
just generally the torture labyrinth mutual but also when distressed starts posting ghostknife a whole lot and will go through the whole tag if so induced also they like to make posts that are like “no i mustn’t complain to the good people of the dash” which makes me, the number one tumblr complainer, reallyyyyyy want to know what they’re not complaining about /silly oh also i forgot to add that skitt is an advocate for not white skinny guy designs in a fandom on tumblr
last person to know he was trans + last person to know he was autistic + irls seem to suck bad
number one ghostknife freak and im always going through Something. my curses are plentiful and apparently i have a fan club that i keep forgetting about whoopssss. coughs up blood . have you ever heard of ghostknife
skitt goes through the torment nexus like twice a week and then reblogs ghostknife fanart about it they deserve to win this
runner up to cyrus shadowheart for physical embodiment of wet cat
LITERALLY THE SUFFERER EVER. ALSO ☝️ CURSED WIFH THE GHOSTKNIFE
I, Randy @a-cat-in-toffe, will draw literally anything for anyone as long as they vote Skitt. This is my promise.
wanna give my isopods a little kissies on the forehead so bad but they are so small and i am so large. cruel world
vote skitt skittlebugg and i'll draw you the PD in any shitpost you want. give me a silly image and i will PD-ify it. this applies to all rounds of this poll and also will be done incredibly hastily because i have zero time but honestly that'll make it better. vote skittlebugg, most tortured mutual ever
My hot take is that I honestly wouldn't mind if Milo also joined the paused campaigns. At the current point each story is at, it would be fairly easy to implement a new character in the same way WD was introduced.
Emizel could come across Milo's character while he finds his way to Shilo and Arthur in Romania after the time-skip. Similarly in Riptide, Milo's character could aid Jay's travel to the front lines of Lizzie's battle with the Navy.
Prime Defenders was a bit more difficult to figure, but her character could easily be a member of WATCH that was assigned to the same mission as them because some kind of special expertise, or a vigilante that stumbled upon the same case.
