If I had a nickel for every time a fandom I was in had a dark-haired comparatively skinny character that could be charitably described as creepy yet ends up a fandom heartthrob with an aesthetic they're entirely too dedicated to as part of a gimmick they invented to build fear who fell into crime at a very young age, had a sibling that died tragically young, trauma associated with sickness, an older male caretaker figure who died and set them on a path to take revenge for the circumstances that killed them by creating an entirely too convoluted plan in order to make their killer lose everything, have the notable canon event of recuing a member of their crew from slavery AND have been forced to spend time in a pile of corpses I would have two nickels and JESUS FUCK HOW DID IT HAPPEN TWICE
