For the character ask, Dale Turner (Jericho) Gray Anderson (Jericho) Darth Maul and Egon (Ghostbusters) please!
Ah, quite an assortment! Thank you, @revanmeetra87!
Let’s see....
Dale Turner
overall: who? / i hate them / i dislike them / kinda wanna fight them / they’re alright / i like them / i love them / *accidentally drops thousands of pictures of them*
I certainly felt bad for this kid initially. But as the show progressed and he began spiraling downwards, he became less and less sympathetic. Really a shame his mother died and he also lost his surrogate mother figure as well, because this boy needs parental guidance back in his life.
opinion: again, who??? / the purest bean / cinnamon roll / who knows really / sinnamon roll / the problematic fav otp(s): None, really other ship(s): Maybe Skylar? They do seem to have a whole partners in crime relationship at a few points #noromo ship(s): Perhaps Allison Hawkins? She was a reasonably sensible teen. Perhaps she could have become a voice of reason for Dale crack ship(s): Can’t think of any. fav headcanon(s): Hmmm. I wonder if Dale eventually would get mixed up with Jonah. And Jake would step in, recognizing that Dale was in danger of repeating the same mistakes he made as a teenager and wanting to prevent that
Gray Anderson
overall: who? / i hate them / i dislike them / kinda wanna fight them / they’re alright / i like them / i love them / *accidentally drops thousands of pictures of them*
In a nutshell, the man is all talk but no brains, with an inability to think long-term. It’s rather a shame the majority of Jericho fell for it and chose to replace Johnston Green with this guy as mayor. But at the same time, it was sadly realistic, as desperate people can be irrational. However, at the same time, I can tell he’s not a bad guy and he does care about the town. And he does eventually realize that he had bitten off more then he could chew, as he is able to swallow his pride and seek help from people who were better suited to lead the town.
opinion: again, who??? / the purest bean / cinnamon roll / who knows really / sinnamon roll / the problematic fav otp(s): None, I’m afraid other ship(s): Had she lived, I think it would have been interesting to see him with Gracie. They did seem to be a bit similar in some regards #noromo ship(s): Well, I think the comics showed him getting along with Gail Green, does that count? crack ship(s): Drawing a blank here, I’m afraid fav headcanon(s): I tend to think that, from S2 onwards, Gray was mayor in name only, and only took up leadership responsibility when the Green Brothers (particularly Jake) were not available.
Darth Maul
overall: who? / i hate them / i dislike them / kinda wanna fight them / they’re alright / i like them / i love them / *accidentally drops thousands of pictures of them*
To be honest, I presently don’t really getwhy this character was so popular among the fanbase. To date, I’ve only seen him in Phantom Menace (where I think he only had one line) and his brief cameo at the end of Solo (which was more jarring than anything, as that was my first indication that he somehow survived getting split in half and falling down a seemingly bottomless pit) . That’s not much to go on. Maybe my opinion will change once I get father into the Clone Wars series, as well as Star Wars: Rebels. I think he pops up in those shows, right?
opinion: again, who??? / the purest bean / cinnamon roll / who knows really / sinnamon roll / the problematic fav otp(s): None. other ship(s): Can’t think of any. He didn’t really interact with many people, did he? #noromo ship(s): Um....I think I read somewhere that he had a brother? So maybe him and his brother? crack ship(s): I don’t know. Maybe the demon from the Insidious franchise? They do kinda look alike, after all fav headcanon(s): Um....Not sure if it’s a headcanon but.... can his species grow back limbs like an Axolotl? Because that might explain how he survived.....
Egon
overall: who? / i hate them / i dislike them / kinda wanna fight them / they’re alright / i like them / i love them / *accidentally drops thousands of pictures of them*
While Peter is usually treated as the de facto leader of the original Ghostbusters, the team itself really couldn’t function without Egon, as he is the brains of the operation. Particularly since he has a textbook knowledge of the ghosts they face, and was also the one who designed all of their equipment. (Yeah, Ray helped with that, but that’s beside the point.) At the same time, his heightened intelligence is somewhat tragic. In the show The Real Ghostbusters, and arguably the movies as well, it’s strongly implied that he was born into a family that demanded he excel academically, and never really allowed him the chance to simply be a kid. So it’s no small wonder he turned out the way he did, oftentimes struggling to understand social cues and norms and having difficulty connecting to people on an emotional level.
opinion: again, who??? / the purest bean / cinnamon roll / who knows really / sinnamon roll / the problematic fav otp(s): Janine, hands down! other ship(s): None #noromo ship(s): I adore his friendship with Peter. Their banter is a thing to behold crack ship(s): None fav headcanon(s): I kinda wonder if he might be demisexual sometimes. It would certainly make his possible relationship with Janine that much sweeter.
