am I right with assuming he'd have a crooked smile
I drew esmerelda in class the other day and I'm really proud of it :3
resenting myself for saying I hope we doing the roaring 20s for our senior prom (bc of noir) as a joke in sophmore/10th grade, because now we're actually doing it and I already have another outfit planned. I didn't think it would happen.
Something I love about Claude Frollo is that when Disney was writing him, they didn't want the audience to like him. It's why his character is very black and white in the movie, so to speak, than the original book by Victor Hugo. But they couldn't just get rid of his motives when it's one of the major themes of the book (religion).
Unfortunately for the writers, that's why he's one of the best written villains- because although dramatized, he's realistic. For some people, religion is incredibly important to them. and as we've seen throughout history, people make incredibly dangerous decisions on behalf of maintaining their values. Any disruption to them is distressing, making them act out. and this goes past religion. think of a time where you were in a situation where something conflicted with when of your core values- it's stressful! you really gotta reflect, and that doesn't always work out thanks to denial and rationalization.
tldr, Claude Frollo is the best Disney Villain ever because not only is he the embodiment of a bad person, you understand his motives (not as in understand and agree, but you understand WHY he does what he does). And the worst part, his thought process is a common one.

I think one of the reasons drag kings aren’t as popular as drag queens, aside from the fact that straight women don’t like us, is that people are uncomfortable acknowledging masculinity as a performance. Like we as a society know that femininity is a performance, with its own costumes and rules. Masculinity is also a performance, and nothing makes that more clear than someone making an exaggeration of it

would a silent film era spiderman speak in captions that just metaphysically implant the words in others brains or would that just. not work outside their universe. do they learn sign? would sign language work?

HE SAID THE THING
HE SAID THE FUCKING THING
the part that killed me the most was somehow the "I have a guy" when talking about melvin
headcanon that matt murdock is, despite being the most outwardly unapproachable and standoffish vigilante, the most well-connected vigilante in new york. he's been there the longest and, though he tells every new vigilante he meets to "get the hell out of my city" he doesn't do it before inciting some small modicum of loyalty from the person. its mostly unintentional on his part---he's just one of those people, y'know? he draws others in even though he acts like he wants to be alone. he demands friendship while asking for distance. within five minutes of meeting spider-man, spider-man decided that DD was his mentor whether he knew it or not. frank owes him for like five separate jailbreaks. clint has been pulled out of so many dumpsters that at this point he's not sure dragging the devil out of hell would be enough repayment. the x-men love the dude because he's a weird combination of scott, logan and professor x (he's a good mentor, gruff and eerily perceptive). the defenders unofficially think of him as their leader, no matter what they say to anyone else. he met venom like a week ago and now venom is entirely willing to die for the "asshole with horns". the first time he met moon knight he saved the dude's ass, and then later jake repays that debt but really there's no count going because the entire MK system agrees that if their lawyer died it would be a fucking national emergency. he knows the avengers as well, to his own despair, and one word from their mysterious friend and they're ready to call an assemble because they, for some godsdamned reason, trust him.
Steve: we need backup. we're outnumbered. hawkeye, can you call in kate?
matt: *punching an android in the face* kate's at band practice with spidey. just a moment, ill get frank on the line. steve: *falters* frank . . . who? matt: *non-chalantly* castle. obviously. natasha: like, the man who has tried to kill you multiple times? matt: *waves it off* that's only on thursdays. we have a truse on sundays. besides, he owes me for that most recent jailbreak. steve: what the fuck
jake: *fighting hydra* this shit is way above my paygrade. this is an avengers mess. let them clean this up. matt: hang on, i think i can get tony on the phone. jake: jake: you call iron man, tony stark, one of the richest men in the world, TONY? matt: he's actually a nice dude. i think he'd assume i were sick if i called him mister stark. jake: what the fuck is your life matt: *on the phone* hey dude-
spider-man: *holds up thor's hammer* isn't mister thor off world? how did this get here? matt: idk. hold it for me, i'll let thor know he lost the fucking thing. spider-man: how? what, you have a norse god on speed dial? matt: yeah? spider-man: *chokes and drops the hammer on his foot*
natasha: damn. my suit got ripped. it'll take hours to get it fixed. matt: *thinking of how melvin was sad there was nothing to repair with the DD suit last time he visited* i have a guy
in psych were doing a character analysis and obviously I'm doing noir and other losers, but then one of the things asked for a character (that we like/enjoy) with high self esteem. I dont... who... why would I like a character... that doesn't hate themself.... that's. that's weird. that's wrong. if youre gonna be my silly guy, you can't be happy!!! it's illegal!!!!
Does Calvin and Hobbes count? I picked up a huge collection/book thingy of them in 3rd grade and thought it was the most awesome thing. otherwise it was A S-Man. don't remember if it Superman or Spider-Man, but I've loved and obsessed over them since I was little

What's this noir au you speak of?
I sent a screenshot of this to my friend and he said "oh they fucked up"
I have another post explaining some of the more graphic parts of my AU, but here's another post in attempt to write it better!!
This AU is a continuation of literally every comic minus the noir fanservice ones (2020) because those aren't him that's ITSV noir and I stand by that. So this takes place after Spider-Geddon, ight? So a fair amount of time has passed and he's seen even more horrors. And boy oh boy have the horrors plagued him. He's gone textbook definition psychotic. Before you get any ideas, this is in no way glorifying psychosis. I know firsthand how disturbing the experience can be, and a lot of this is me transcribing my own experiences if I'm being honest.
So, he's psychotic. And can you blame the guy? You can only take so much of the people around you getting killed (and eaten) before it takes a toll. But don't you guys worry, my biggest pet peeve is when characters aren't written realistically or out of character. He's always had incredibly strong morals, and I don't intend on changing them; just amping them up by 1000.
So he gets back from literally fucking dying in Spider Geddon (okay I am taking some things from the 2020 comics because I'm not THAT creative) and just wants a hug from Aunt May, only to be rejected. And not just "no, you're supposed to be dead" rejection, oh no. I'm talking disgust. She shuts the door on him, she can barely look him in the eyes without feeling even more hatred for the kid she thought she once knew. And this crushes Peter, as it would anyone. So he goes to the next person he can think of: Mary Jane. Oops, she died overseas. So he goes to the Robertsons who let him in with warmth. Yeah that's right, I'm not a total fucking asshat. But Robbie still is lobotomized so all poor Petey can do is cry on his lap. Idc what anyone says, he does this at least once a week since it happened because I said so.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT! IT'S OKAY BECAUSE HE HAS A CAT! So he's still sane at this point. He continues on with his miserable life the best he can… which is not great. He can barely afford rent, none of his cases are working out, and he slowly begins to isolate himself out of disappointment. The only time he goes out is as Spider-Man because despite how Aunt May feels, it's the only time where he can be himself. It's the only time where he can just… run. From everything. From his personal life, from his work life, from his miserable state. The only thing that's really keeping him together is those moments of freedom and his cat. Until she dies. That's right, the cat dies.
Everything holding him together, everything that kept him from just abandoning everything, is gone. NOW cue the psychosis. I meant it when I said the cat was all that was holding him together. Because now nothing makes sense. It's just not fair. Now everything is a nightmare. He can't find a single speck of joy in his life. Scratch that, he can't even feel anything. He's nothing but numb.
Till one classic, cliché night (you won't believe this), a robbery occurs (Bro thought he could avoid a robbery that drastically changes his entire way of life 💀💀💀). Unfortunately for the robber, fortunately for Peter, beating the mook up made him feel something.
So he kept doing it. Going out of his way to punch the bad guys. But like any high, it comes down. The adrenaline runs off and the thrill leaves you empty once more. And eventually punching bad guys doesn't cut it anymore. He digs up some cases where he knows the son of a gun got away with it, and decided to put justice into his own hands. So when he finally took an asshats life, he felt alive for the first time in god knows how long.
But once more, it wears off. Just shooting someone isn't enough. Yeah, taking a life is intense, but they deserve more. These are the scum of the earth he's looking for, and getting shot is mercy. Mercy he doesn't have. Not anymore.
