Had to explain the plot of all for the game to someone who had no prior knowledge and holy shit. (Spoilers) Here’s some of my favorite footnotes from our texts:
To start with it is about a bastardized version of lacrosse called exy
And the yakuza
What
Does the yakuza have to do with lacrosse
The only joy he has is playing exy after his mom died and he burned her body in the first few pages of the book
Ah yes
Hillbilly cremation
10/10 for the environment
I’m honestly scared to actually read it
It made my mental health worse I think
Their mom decided to give up one and keep the other so one grew up in the foster system and one grew up with their abusive mother and they didn’t know abt each other until they were like 13ish? At which point one already had a SEVERE self harm addiction and the other had a severe drug addiction
Bro what 😭😭😭
And was HEAVILY abusive to them and their moms sibling was extremely religious (which sucked for their gay cousin, Nicky-he’s also on the exy team) and forced her to raise Andrew again after abandoning him as a baby and Andrew caught her abusing Aaron so he murdered her at 15ish
MURDER
A VALID MURDER
BUT MURDER
YEAH
AARON WAS NOT STOKED
I CAN IMAGINE
ALSO ANDREW LOCKED AARON IN A BATHRROM COMPLETELY ALONE FOR LIKE A WEEK AND FORCED HIM TO DETOX COLD TURKEY
WTF😭😭😭
Oh also Neil is like 5’4? There’s a lot of short kings in these books
Napoleon syndrome goes hard ig
Also I forgot to mention Kevin and Neil were childhood friends because Neil is technically supposed to be a raven (the ones who brand children) but his mom ran away from him and Neil knows who Kevin is but if I remember right Kevin doesn’t know who Neil is
Someone get these kids therapy
Please
They’d have to admit to all the murder
Get a mob boss therapist idk
TO BE PART OF THE TEAM BC THEY HAVE TO COME FROM FUCKED UP CIRCUMSTANCES THEY SEE BETSY DOBSON
Maybe it’s time to change religions
Atp I don’t see any other solution 😭
I need you to know everything I detailed happened in the first book and THERES FIVE
Fuck religions
Just death
They also go clubbing at a club called Eden’s like all the time
Ah yes, I’m mentally unstable, let me go to a club, shake some ass, grab a dick, and do a joint in the bathroom. Fun Friday night yall.
Also the older members call the younger members “the monsters” bc they’re good at exy but also because they don’t really view them as people
Again you’ve rendered me speechless and not in the fun way
Atp just burn down the school
THE YAKUZA TRIED 😭😭😭
TRY HARDER
ARSON ISNT ROCKET SCIENCE
Russian sleep experiment this author
Please
That summary makes it sound INTERESTING the points you described to me makes me think I should join a JIGSAW GAME I’d walk out of it with less trauma
Please comment some of your favorite fucked up things that happened in aftg 😭
On one hand, Young Justice is kind of neglected by the actual superheroes that should be looking out for them in a lot of crucial ways and very much failed by the adults around them
But on the other hand Red Tornado straight up hosts a parent-teacher conference where their respective legal guardians all show up, barring Batman who’s in traffic so Nightwing fills in instead because Robin’s dad does not know he’s a vigilante which is objectively hilarious
i need jason 'metalhead' todd to find out tim has a thing with kon (another alt bitch) and just. spiral
jason: you don't want to date alt men, don't date alt men, most of them are jobless alcoholics who sleep in their friend's basement. you know what alt men are good for? looking at, hanging out with and one night stands and even that is questionable. not long term relationships! alt men are horrible flings and even worse boyfriends dO NOT DATE AN ALT MAN. why do you think alt women never date alt men??? BECAUSE THEY KNOW
tim, barely listening: did you have a terrible alt boyfriend
jason: I AM THE TERRIBLE ALT BOYFRIEND
‼️‼️GORE AND BLOOD BELOW CUT‼️
I pushed myself out of my comfort zone a bit with this one bc I'm not very good at backgrounds and full body drawings but I'm seriously quite proud of it.
Me drawing the ninja in some of their most traumatic moments: 😦😔🙁
Their colour coded nail polish: 😊🤭🥰

Currently stuck inside cuz my ass got covid in the year 2024 so I’ve got lots of time to obsess over my interests and listen to lots of mcr and rewatch my fav Monster High movies so consider this possibly the beginning af a series….
There's a lot of angles to SoRiku but my favorite is that they are children who were content to live in a dark cold hell forever, as long as they were together...
I made these for a Secret Santa gift exchange over on the BatPham Community discord server. They were made for Strawberry, based off a prompt they provided! The BatPham Community server is a fandom server for a mixture of Batfamily and Danny Phantom content. (Batfamily, as in Batman's various family members... there's quite a few.)
there's something to be said about the choice to use "prince" as the main signifier of military rank for the andalites. because it kinda obscures the truth of the situation, doesn't it? a group of kids getting magic powers from an alien prince sounds whimsical and delightful. a group of kids getting pulled into a war by an alien colonel sounds tragic and horrible. the slow reveal of what "prince" actually means over the course of the early books is perhaps the most underrated twist of the entire series, because it fundamentally recontextualizes the entire premise of the series without the reader even consciously realizing it.
