Thinking About When I Was Small, How My Mom Told Me That Pipe Cleaners Were Just A Tool Until People

Darry: What did. You do?

Two-Bit: Alright, but you can't get mad at me.

Darry: What did. You do?

Two-Bit: So I was minding my own business-

Darry: *slams hand down on the table* BULLSHIT.

Two-Bit: I WAS!

LITERALLY Scarecrow and Mad Hatter. Like. It's them. Literally.

So, I have another theory.

What's Asagiri's name? Kafka. Who else is Kafka? Franz Kafka. And who's this Franz? A writer. He's mostly known for the book "The Metamorphosis". Metamorphosis means change, right? And what can THE BOOK do? Change the reality.

So, in the Metamorphosis is told the story if a young man who suddenly transformed into a bug. His family tries to help him come back to normal and even give him food he would like in the new body, like rotten cheese. But after around a year the bug/guy overheard a conversation between his parents and sister. They all said they hated him and that they didn't need him anymore, so the guy/bug died from depression in a day. (This is a very short summary, I skipped over a lot of details)

The idea of the story is that one's change will change the whole world. And that's exactly what the book does. Changes the world.

So, according to my theory, the book is the ability Metamorphosis.

Now, about the author/character. He meets the criteria to be a BSD character. Dead, depressed, daddy issues (this is only half joke), religion trauma (kinda) and so on. He was a fan of Dostoievsky's and Gogol's work. So he could easily be a BSD character.

But this book doesn't exactly seem the kind of ability the good guys have, does it? So I think Kafka is a villain. If you may, the last antagonist they will fight. So I made some research to find ties between him and Atsushi Nakajima, because as mentioned in the Guild arc, Atsushi is the only one who could find the book. Turns out that Nakajima was a fan of Kafka and translated his works in Japanese. And not only that. The story Atsushi's ability is based on is about a guy who transformed into a tiger because he's very frustrated because of his poems that don't seem to work. I haven't read this one, but from what I've seen online it's very similar to the Metamorphosis. And this is why he'll be the only one able to find the book.

As we all noticed, usually the relationship between two characters is the opposite of the author's relationship (e.g: irl Ranpo was a huge fan of irl Poe, BSD Poe is a huge fan of BSD Ranpo, irl Yosano loved irl Mori, BSD Yosano hates BSD Mori). So, based on this, I would say that Kafka will most definitely be a villain.

The thing is, why would Asagiri choose to have the pen name of the ultimate villain?

Because the BSD story is supposed to be a world made by the book and Franz Kafka is Asagiri Kafka.

In conclusion: Franz/Asagiri Kafka will be the last antagonist of the series. His ability, the book, is Metamorphosis. And I'm delusional.

This could be wrong. After all, it's a theory. But let me know what you think, because I'm really curious.

Imagine wee little Owen ultimately being raised by big brother, who provides for him because their abusive parents won't. It's Deck who makes sure he never goes to sleep hungry; patches him up after their father's tirades. It's Deck who teaches him how to fight back so that he'll never be hurt again; instills in him the code he still lives by. And it's in Deck's footsteps that Owen follows, all the way to the gates of hell...

Toddler Owen whose first words are “Deck.”  Young Deckard who had previously been so disinterested in this new addition to the family suddenly finally something in this world- which had only taught him how cruel it was- to give a shit about.

Deckard, the cool teenager who still gives his brother piggy-back rides and lets him crawl into his bed when he’s had a nightmare or their dad is especially volatile.  Pre-teen Owen who worships the ground his brother walks upon.  Who shadows his older brother in a friend’s garage and watches as he works on cars, Deckard indulging him as he starts to teach him about an engine.

Teenage Owen coming home from school with some minor scrapes and a cut lip, grinning at his brother.  Deckard whose first reaction is to grab Owen’s chin and look him over for anything worse as Owen chuckles and says, “Chill Deck.  You should see the other guy.”  And Deckard who just smiles and presses their heads together, saying how proud he is.

The boys as young adults, Owen pulling his first job with much more experienced Deckard.  No one being surprised when eventually the team gets caught and Deckard takes the SAS as a way to get out of jail time.  Owen, who hadn’t been captured because his brother protected him, following after Deckard as always.  Only this time the boys are separated by distance and time, Deckard becoming a highly classified agent, trained as an assassin, while Owen pulled spec ops missions around the world.  It was the first time Owen remembers feeling alone.

After Owen’s discharge and failed solo op in London, Deckard finding his brother broken in the hospital.  Owen looks up at him, the brother he’s been separated from for too long, and tears sting his eyes.  “Where have you been?”  Deckard chokes on a rush of emotion, something he’d locked away to do his job, and carefully wrapped his little brother in his arms.  “I’m not going anywhere again O.  I promise.”

I just had a thought.

imagine being the Batgirl to Jason's Robin, and the two of you had grown up together, surviving in Crime Alley.

then, when Jason followed Batman to Switzerland, you followed, being partners in every sense of the word. wherever he went, you went, and vice versa.

imagine being in that warehouse - you bleeding out from a knife wound, your consciousness dimming, and Jason brutally injured by a crowbar, his breathing labored.

imagine his desperate words telling you to stay awake, to not leave him.

imagine his body trying to curl around yours as best he could, trying (and failing) to cover you from the impending explosion.

imagine you dying, 10 seconds before the bomb went off. 10 seconds that Jason spent alone in that warehouse before his own life ended. alone with your lifeless body.

I wonder what happens after you're both resurrected by the pit.

Yeah I think you’re in the right place, Al.

Okay let me add my five cents to the Zaunite au, where Viktor didn’t make it to the academy and remained in Zaun.

He was trying to invent on his own, but he desperately needed money for his research. And that’s when Silco appeared…

Okay, the one thing I’m confused about because of the new F9 trailer. Dom and Mia are siblings, right? So unless Mia or Don’s brother are half siblings, they should be related....what do you think?

Oooookay buckle up because this answer is going to be longer than you expected because BOY HOWDY do I have some thoughts about the trailer and also about Dom’s dynamic in the series in general. 

I’m going to put it under the cut because.. because it’s super long because I care way more about these movies than I should.

Hello Omni! Happy Friday! I gotta prompt: Roman asks Owen what was going through his mind when he did a Thing™️ and is left even more baffled by his boyfriend’s thought process than before!

Hello friend! Happy Friday!

I can absolutely see this happening so many times in their relationship! And between Owen and his siblings!

~~~

Roman sat across from Owen, both sitting at the dining room table. He had his head in his hands and sighed loudly. He could hear Owen fidget across from him, but he didn't dare say a word

Mostly because he knew he was in trouble with Roman

After a few more long minutes of silence, Roman finally lifted his head and looked at his boyfriend. Who looked back nervously, but tried to hide behind a mask of nonchalance

"Owen." Roman said levelly

"Yes, love?"

Roman narrowed his eyes

"Why is there a bear sitting in my living room?"

Owen sent him a nervous smile

"Well, it's simple really."

"Really? Explain it to me then."

Owen glanced away and bit his lip. This was one of the only times Roman has seen Owen act like this. Any other time, Owen would be cocky and have no regrets

"Well, you know I love animals, so I had decided to go out to the local dog park. There's was a really nice chap who had a few large dogs. We started talking and apparently he works for an animal rehabilitation facility."

Roman nodded along to the story so far

"He invited me to visit a few of the animals, saying that the wolves were friendly. I wanted to meet them, and when we did, I saw they were well taken care of. They adored me."

Owen said this last part with pride, and Roman raised an eyebrow

"The man was called away for something, so I got bored and wondered around the place. That's when I fell upon Stu. He was abandoned by his mother and was being bottle fed by one of the workers."

Roman narrowed his eyes

"He was just too adorable to let him stay there, Ro! I remember that my cousin knew someone who owns a bear rehabilitation center in Russia. So, I decided Stu would enjoy being there much better."

Roman stared

"You'd think it'd be hard to steal a bear cub, but it was quite easy. Stu cuddled into my chest with ease and I was able to sneak him out."

"And thought my penthouse would be a great place to keep him." Roman said dryly

"Well, of course." Owen frowned. "Nobody would question why we're having formula or fish brought here. And this would be the last place they'll look."

Roman sighed and scrubbed a hand down his face

"Did you think about how I would react, Oh?"

"You love animals!"

"Not wild ones!"

Owen pouted at him

"Stu is well trained and loves to cuddle, he wouldn't hurt a fly."

"He's a wild animal that has specific needs, Owen! He can't be cooped up in a penthouse."

"It'll only be for a short while before my cousin can send him to his friend."

"Who we don't even know is any good at taking care of bears!" Roman snapped and saw Owen tense. Sighing, Roman shook his head. "You need to take him back."

"But-!"

"Owen!" Roman raised his voice. "He was doing quite fine at that facility! You just wanted to steal something!"

Owen glared harshly at him

Roman didn't say anything else as Owen stood up roughly and stormed out of the room

Head in his hands again, Roman could hear Owen playing with the bear cub in his living room

Why the hell did he get with a Shaw?

~~~

I hope you enjoyed friend!
