Okay, I'll stop XD

You and your friend planned an escape, failed, then reunited in a completely different state and body of mind. Reading the notes from chapter 3, I can see some ways the Prototype wasn't very open to "CatNap".

What a narcissist

It's so obvious that a lot of people on here are inexplicably convinced that bad books are a recent invention

the "came back wrong" trope except like... they didnt. like this mad scientists wife died, and so he studied necromancy, brought her back, and she came back and it all worked. like she came back exactly the same as she was before with literally no difference. but the scientist guy is like "oh no... what have i done.... shes Different now!!!! she came back Wrong!!!!" and shes just like. chilling. reading a book. cooking dinner. shes just so so normal but in the guys mind hes like "oh shes soooo weird" but shes just normal

NO its a JOKE and YOU DONT GET IT. ITS NOT THAT DEEP

While she was dead he put his memory of her on such a high pedestal that she could never live up to it alive

alternatively‚ she came back perfectly fine but he thinks she came back wrong‚ because the tragic reality is that he never actually knew his wife

It's your post but the journey to posting it changed it to such a degree that even its closest intimacies are now foreign to you. Sorry dude.

No bond stronger than a disabled girl and her disabled cat

accessible-art

[ID: A 6-panel black and white digital comic titled "Hard to Love: Disability and Cats". The cover is a black and white cat asleep on top of a curve-top cane.

Panel 1: A figure is turned away from the viewer and text around them says "Sometimes, I think I'm hard to love. My body doesn't work like it's supposed to"

Panel 2: Three sections. In the first the figure is looking at a chart confused and upset, labelled "I forget things". In the second they are walking using the cane and looking tired, labelled "I move slow". In the third, they are bending down with back pain to pick up a pencil and it is labelled "It hurts to do things most people do easily".

Panel 3: The cat is looking at the viewer, labelled "My cat's body also doesn't work like it's supposed to"

Panel 4: A similar 3-section layout. The cat is looking away from its food bowl, confused, labelled "He doesn't remember things". The cat then jumps and lands face-first, labelled "He's clumsy". Finally, he is stretching up to a window but can't reach it and it says "He can't do things that other cats can do".

Panel 5: The figure is holding the cat with their foreheads together and a heart above them, labelled "And I love him so much"

Panel 6: The cat is asleep on the figure's lap as they pet him, looking down at him considering and unsure. It is labelled "So maybe it's not too hard to love me".

Jiang Yanli 🤝 Jin Zixuan raised by angry controlling mother + distant emotionally unavailable father

I think it's incredibly easy to be sympathetic to Yanli and see how the trauma from her disfunctional parents has shaped her personality and created very specific coping mechanisms, but it makes me sad that people very rarely seem to extend that same sympathy to Zixuan - perhaps because we get to see less of his home life, and it's all filtered through the POV of a protagonist who doesn't like him. at any rate, what is shown is that he has a mother who does not hestitate to publically humiliate him and cares far more about her own interests than his happiness and fulfilment, and a father who... well, it's difficult to imagine JGS having much of a real relationship with/influence over a son who feels as strongly about honour and doing the right thing as Zixuan (see: standing up to Wen Chao, his friendship with and defense of Mianmian, leading the Jin forces during the war, confronting Yanli over believing she stole credit from a servant girl, etc.)

I can just really strongly imagine their relationship blossoming quickly on an emotional level because they both really crave that intimacy they lacked in their childhoods (Yanli had her brothers but she was always parentified and put on a pedastal, Zixuan had Mianmian but how close could they really get with a mother like Jin-furen, likely watching them like a hawk to look for Any Funny Business?), and given that it's canon that they stay up late talking and "tell each other everything", they were starting to break the cycle of horrible resentful marriages that traumatise their kids!!! 🥹🥹🥹 truly they were too powerful to be allowed to live

nebulations

[ID: A MDZS comic. Jiang Yanli says sadly, "I was berated incessantly for any behaviour she didn't approve of and punished any time that I deviated even an iota from the plan that she had for my life. No matter what I did, or how hard I tried she made it clear that I was disappointing to her and--"

She continues speaking but looks up with surprise as Jin Zixuan puts a hand on her shoulder and says in unison, "-- nothing but a reminder of all the things she hates about my father."

Then Jin Zixuan says sadly, " I have never really been a person to him-- he cares about me in an abstract sense, as something that belongs to him and he can claim ownership of to spite my mother, but I don't think he has ever seen me as more than an extension of himself, and--" It's his turn to look surprised as Jiang Yanli puts a hand on his shoulder and says in sympathetic unison, "-- never cared enough to step in when, my mother was cruel."

They hold hands with tender expressions, a circle glowing between them, and say, "We will do better." End ID]

Jason lying to Damian for fun in the league because he’s never had a little brother before and he doesn’t know what else to do.

Jason: you know your name wasn’t always Damian.

Damian: ?

Jason: yeah up until you were four you were called Melissa.

Damian: shut up. no i wasn’t.

Jason, deadly serious: no, genuinely. you see, when you were born you looked so much like your mom that you looked like a girl, so we all thought you were female.

Damian, indignant: i don’t look female!

Jason: it’s ok- there’s nothing wrong with it, we loved you regardless.

Damian: i am a BOY.

Jason: yeah, but obviously when you’re a baby everything’s really tiny, so we couldn’t see your dick and we thought you might be a girl. so we named you Melissa. wasn’t until you were four that it grew enough that we noticed the mistake and changed you to Damian.

Damian, distraught: THAT’S NOT TRUE.

Jason: you responded to Melissa until you were four- sometimes i say Melissa out of habit and you don’t even notice.

Damian: what- no you don’t!

Jason, gaslighting: yeah, you just don’t notice. you just hear your name and don’t pay any more attention.

Damian, stomping his foot: YOU’RE LYING.

Jason: go ask your mom if you don’t believe me, i don’t know what to tell you.

*two hours later, Talia comes into Jason’s room with a sobbing Damian on her hip, crying into her shoulder*

Talia, exasperated to hell and back: Jason. you weren’t even here when Damian was an infant.

Jason, grinning widely: yeah i know.
