So I read through the main running of Hellboy, in omnibus 1-4, and let me just say wow that was so sad.
In essence, its a doomed-by-the-narrative type tragedy. It tells you over and over exactly what is going to happen, but it somehow tricks you into having hope, just like HB, that he can change his fate and avoid the inevitable.
But thats what the story is about- the inevitable. The world is going to end and he’s going to end it, whether he wants to or not. He is granted a minor mercy by having the world he ends be hell, but its an empty victory. You see him resist it through the entire story and slowly lose hope, becoming more tired, and you lose hope with him.
The entire time reading it, I was begging for HB to catch some sort of break- to have something good happen to him. In the end, him accepting his fate and ending everything almost felt like a mercy, like he finally done with it and could rest.
Anywho, Mignola is an amazing writer and I will never be okay again.
It’s weird because I will be gone for a week or two but then I get requests and I never get a dang notification for them ;—;

Is it just me, or does everyone in this fandom seem to know each other?
Oh, @jojos-headcanons, you sweet child! Have no fear for I shall make you a stand worthy of you!
Your stand’s name is Ground Control!
Basically, whatever your stand hits will stop being affected by gravity. Your stand’s effect wears off once the affected object(s) are out of your range, so you don’t have to worry about forgetting to turn something back to normal. You can even use your stand on yourself, so that’ll be fun! Just remember that objects in motion tend to stay in motion. In fact, because of that principle, you could eject yourself into space if you can manage not to burn up in the atmosphere!
On a side note, a fun person to partner up with would be the user of Major Tom, a stand I made a day or two ago. Mixing your stands together would make for some wacky, or nauseating, fun!
Actually, you’d made a good pair with almost anyone! Its use may not have the most variety, but it will allow you ye be a power duo with almost anyone!
How does your stand creation process work? You're very good at it.
Oh my goodness im sorry that I never saw this!!! Thank you for the question!
I normally read pver the requests to find something, anything, that stands out to me. I then spend a bit agonizing over how that can be used as a ability. Sometimes, if I really can’t think if anything, I go through my room to find everyday objects that can spark some thought.
Everyone is unique, but a lot of people arent able to write about what makes them unique, which is really the only thing that makes creating a stand difficult, if you ask me.
