Sometimes I start thinking about the parallels between Jack/Lacie and Oz/Alice and start crying because that’s such a beautiful way to show healthy and unhealthy relationships. The good parallels between the two and the differences in scenes that lead to the destruction or growth of one another is just...good

#ph rambles #i love that manga so much ok #i read it maybe 3 times now? but i wont ever get sick of it #i really need to get to vnc because jun mochizuki is a fantastic storyteller but i never get to it lmao

I’ve had this thing sitting in my drafts for ages, toods tagged me to do it like, idk how long ago, i don’t even remember where the post was originally from, and i’ll prob never finish it and the answers are old af anyway so, here you ggggo @toodotnil

1: How long have you been in the fandom?

Okay I have absolutely no idea really... The earliest chapter whose scanlation I remember waiting for was Noise of Echo I think? I don't know really, but I'd say about 5-6 years... Well following the manga anyway I wasn't much fandom active back then! =v=

2: Favorite character?

Laughs okay no there's no way I can choose don't do this to me..... Honnestly I don't know? I have a huge bias on Sharon so I guess it'll be her, but there are many characters that I love and cherish and who intrigue me and I just, yeah, overall I'll just go with Sharon because milady is milady first and foremost

3: Favorite Baskerville?

Errr that'd be a toss between Levi, Lacie and Fang... If we'd known more about Fang he'd probably have won this but no those three on equal ground really, I am completely fascinated by Levi and immensely look up to Lacie so there.

4: Favorite of the Four Dukes?

Well if you consider Oscar not being a duke then that leaves Sheryl and Rufus... I love Sheryl but I'd have to go with Ruf? He's just so infuriating and so damn smart but a smartass and a dumbass and yeah... But Sheryl is awesome too but yeah I get more worked up about that idiot duke haha

5: Favorite Chain?

O-kay no no I can't alright I will, erm, probably Humpty Dumpty? Because I just love the whole story behind the Chain and how it seeks to protect Glen and I mean as creepy and tragic as the story went with it I still find its purpose pretty damn romantic so there. Other favorites are March Hare, Dormouse and Eques. But those are more biased... (And Tove is super cute) And I guess Owl is awesome yeah damn

6: OTP?

Oz/Sarcasm Erm so the one and only and top of most loved loving lovelies hm? ... ... ... I'm gonna go with Oz and Echo I guess or maybe Elliot and Leo I'm not too sure but yeah for now I'll just stick with Oz and Echo!

7: Other ships?

*cracks knuckles* alright here we go~ Oz/Echo, Elliot/Leo, Rufus->Sheryl, Echo/Ada, Lacie/Levi, Jack/Oswald (even if Oswald deserved so much better but still damn), LOTTIE/FANG, Oscar/Sara, Break/Shelly, Vanessa/Gilbert, annnnd I used to ship quite a lot but not all that much anymore Ada/Vincent and Break/Reim... Also the good old Vincent/Sharon oh boyyy that one's old haha

8: Favorite Nightray?

Favorite adopted Nightray: Gilbert. Favorite boy Nightray: Elliot. Favorite girl (wecouldhavehaditaaaaall) Nightray: Vanessa. Favorite face Nightray: Ernest. Favorite you-might-not-have-been-as-much-of-a-dick-withput-your-brother-and-I'm-actually-pretty-curious-about-you Nightray: Claude. Favorite dead Nightray: Bernard.

9: Favorite Vessalius?

Oz is one of the best character I ever encountered all fiction wise and no matter how much I love Oscar and Ada and Sara they can't win this he's just too great.

10: Favorite Rainsworth?

Sharon bias roaring high, also I've come to care a hell of a lot more about Break than I ever thought I would and Shelly looked absolutely awesome... And well Reim is amazing but that's Reim for you.

11: Favorite Barma?

I am completely intrigued by Arthur and I have no idea why he just looks like such a kind man who had a ridiculous life and still clung to his sanity and idk I guess part of me admires him and another part just wants more of him iF POSSIBLE HAPPY THANKS

12: Headcanons I have?

Oh no you don't want to go there I was obssessing over Rainsworth daily domestic life for years and the past two years or so has been a big let's AU PH in as many forms as we can so I can't just pour everything on there it'd take ages oh god... Mostly alright I guess I'll go with that one that the Rainsworth trio loved to tease Gil of course (even Reim sometimes) but they were actually super mommying on him even if they didn't show it directly all the time but they care a lot about that baby and would raise hell to anyone going against him in Pandora probably. Yeah.

13: How did I join the fandom?

Forums RPG was a big thing back then for me like idk how many forums I was on at the same time but jesus it was ridiculous how much free time I had oh boyyy and anyway one of the forum's banner had the Oz chair pic on it and I was all ohh I love that art it looks so neat and that boy looks nice what is it, and idk if someone helped or if I found it by myself but a few days later I was starting to read the manga y eah.

14: When did I join the fandom?

No clue but I'd say 2009? I'm pretty sure it was before the anime showed up? I don't remembeeerrr I think I had a discussion about it with humanteapot a little while back and she remembered more than I did JIJI YOU'RE BETTER AT TIME THAN ME HELP

15: Why did I join the fandom?

Because of the art I guess mostly at first anyway? Oz seeme like a friendly intriguing fellow 8'D ... And well then I read and was all wOW whAT and yeah

16: Who did I first ship Oz with? (Bc I'm pretty sure we all went back and forth with shipping this little shit)

Okay you want a good laugh have a good laugh bUT (sorry if I offend any shipper it was a while back for me) okay there was a dark dark time where I tried to look at PH fanfics on ff.net but I was very angry at Ozbert mostly because all the fics treated Alice like shit and it pissed me off ANYWAY then I found a little gem that was Oz/Break and I kinda took it upon myself to read every Oz/Break fic on there sO YEAH dark times...

17: Saddest character death in my opinion?

I think the one that had the most impact on most people and probably me included was Elliot it was just sudden and shocking? But the one that saddens me the most nowadays is mostly Fang because people never remember him and we barely got to know anything about him and it was just so unfair urghhh but yeah all deaths are sad jeebus

18: Do I hate or like Jack?

Let's just say I'd love to punch him in the face. He is a great character he really is and I don't hate him, but I don't like him either. I guess I don't really dislike him because a part of me is still intrigued but I cannot like him after all he's done to Oz it's impossible for me to. Honnestly the more the chapters go the less I consider him human and more of a shade that's trying to use the last bit of his strength and latched onto Oz with a single minded focus so ... hm...

19: Lacie?

Okay first of all I am not fond of overused stereotypes and tropes especially the cute girl yandere thing so when Lacie first showed up I was disappointed and just, no. And then like so many she started being intriguing and pretty damn complex and I was a bit hooked in despite my first impressions... And then there was this quote to Oswald about how she didn't hate the world and it hit me so hard that I was completely taken by her every word afterwards. I said it above earlier but I really look up to her and admire her and how she could view the world around her in such a way when it had all but rejected her completely and it made me think a lot and helped me a lot too.

20: Opinion on the Baskervilles?

They're pretty damn great for people who come from such a fucked up hierarchy and environment let me tell you that. I wished we'd gotten more about Fang and Doug but I'm very glad we got so much of Levi and Lacie and that Lottie got the development she deserved (and it was sO GOOD too) and that Oswald could finally rest in piece...

21: Who would I cosplay as?

I've cosplayed as Sharon before (I don't make much of a lady let me tell you that) and I'm not gonna count that Eques closet cosplay as a cosplay because it was ridiculous so there... I guess if another character than Sharon... Maybe Vanessa? Or a genderbend character? I don't really see myself as any of the other girls or any of the boys.

22: Do I want to cosplay as anyone?

Okay maybe I should read the next question before answering one oops... No but also maybe try for real an Eques cosplay this time... Or another chain, maybe March Hare? Oh I think I also wanted to cosplay as Emily once long ago!

23: Moments that made me cry?

Errr honnestly quite a few of them so I can't remember them all? I remember the time I cried the most and the longest was when Break got blind though... I printed the second DVD cover and it's been above my bed's pillow for years now and the night I read the retrace I just cried and glared at Break for ages before going to sleep XD ...

24: Did I cry?

Yeppp yeah I did, not all that much over the past years actually, mostly before then... And more often actually when I realize things belately or when I think back on things x) Lately it's been mostly tearing up when the song Echo pops up on my iPod...

#how do i even tag this #ph rambles #????#toodotnil #if you want feel free to ask me any question i havent answered yet i guess

#ph post #ph rambles #they're both the same i just dont know #everything stays #like the emotional effects of this DAMN period

chainsawblaster said: it maybe shows how when jack uses oz for “lacie’s sake” how much oz suffers?

Oh yes great point!! Jack really looks like he's using Lacie as a puppet, even more with her expression, and even as a shield? Not really Lacie herself but her name, it's almost as if he created a whole new Lacie, the idea of her, to shove in front of him as protection. And we know he's used Oz as both puppet and shield before too! So yeah it makes sense, Oz is the direct reciever/victim of Jack's obssession for Lacie!

ryoura said: Truuue but the times we see her holding Oz are before he’s even ‘alive’, so I wouldn’t rule it out completely. I need to look at their faces again though; I picked it up as current Jack with Lacie feeling something like dissappointment/sadness

Well in that sense though wouldn't that be before he's alive too? After all she was never present for when Oz was alive really! But she had him ever since she was a kid, and for kids it doesn't matter if plushes are alive or not, they're friends? Besides she gave one to the core so it wouldn't be lonely so I believe she thought of the plush as a friend too, at least when she was a child, a way to be less lonely? I think she really cared about it otherwise she wouldn't have gone through the trouble of bringing them both to the core of the Abyss! But yes Lacie's face could definitely be disappointment and sadness in Jack! It just striked me to see her with that kind of expression, we're used to much more confidence and energy from her!
