now, I know that cale henituse and bruce wayne have similarities. They both have an adoption problem, are cunning strategists, terrible at communicating, and are filthy rich. but I think on a fundamental level they would not get along. Bruce has (admittedly kind of necessary due to frequent mind control situations) contingency plans for friends and family. Cale would Not Vibe with that at all. He would rather die than do that shit.
plus bruce’s no-killing policy (again, valid reasons for this), and while bruce does various other brutal acts short of killing, I think this would cause some problems. cale might understand it on a moral level. But if they had to work together? They would be butting heads like nobody’s business. honestly, if they did have to team up to take down an enemy, I think there would be a confrontation a la “Ruthlessness” from EPIC the musical
modern (no powers) au where crowned clown is a tapeworm that Allen formed an emotional attachment to
Do I think these characters from tcf would say/follow through with this quote: “because I do believe in killing the messenger. do you know why? because it sends a message.”
cale: yes, I think he’d say it. Depending on who was injured and if the messenger was a part of the scheme, he would follow through (but not before torture).
alver: no
choi han: still no. he might kill the messenger, but I don’t think he’d do it to send a message
ron: he’s not saying because he’s a professional, but he’s absolutely doing it
lee soohyuk: … unsure. He’s introduced as a nice guy, but cale's scheming and ruthless plots came from somewhere.
choi jungsoo: no, it seems like he has a pretty solid moral compass. Then again, I haven’t caught with part 2, so…
mary: no
rosalyn: no
hannah: absolutely
the white star: obviously, yes
cage: no
taylor: no
clopeh (?): yes, he’s positively insane
roan: maybe? I don’t think he’d say it or do it to send a message, but if someone told him a member of his family was killed, he’d kill someone
on: no. maybe if she continues training as an assassin, but ron and vicross don’t seem to be encouraging that
hong: similar to on, but I’m more firmly on the side of no for him
are you worried about dying young? generally disgusted by humans or sex? feeling a deep distaste for humanity, and an even deeper regret you won’t be able to inflict generational trauma on your non-existent children?
well if so, there’s great news! with “reincarnating into an already living person,” you can inflict all your worst memories to the next generation without all that reproduction and childrearing nonsense! All for the low low price of dying!
me, starting d gray man and seeing Allen: what a nice, polite young man :)
me, seeing Allen gamble: what a… nice?… polite young man :)
me, seeing Allen get into arguments and fight with Kanda and Cross: what a… nice?… polite?… young man :)
me, finding out more about the 14th situation: what a… nice?… polite?… young?… man :)
paranormal investigator but the ghosts are the clients
shout out to past!Allen Walker for being some unfortunate rando who came into contact with the narrative and then almost instantly became doomed by it
with the knowledge that innocence is an parasitic entity that basically eats misery, I want someone to know that I think of Crowned Clown refusing to let Allen be killed/die or be separated as a kid throwing a tantrum because someone took away their candy.
like Apocryphos is desperately trying to get this piece of candy away because “it’s not good for you!” and Crowned Crown is kicking screaming crying about losing this food.
Jin Guangshan: There’s nothing you or I can do to bring Wei Wuxian back now.
Wei Wuxian: He has RISEN, babygirl!
Jin Guangshan: FUCK!!!!
Nea: you look nice. Who dressed you, the Great Depression?
Cross: you look lonely, Nea. I’m so sorry I couldn’t attend your funeral 35 years go.
