The last meme redraw!

(And Azul kept his promise)

(Based on this meme by @basuralindo )

Thanks for allowing me to redraw your memes /o/

MC cracking under the weight of their uselessness.

MC, collapsing in tears, screaming out how they don't need help, and they could do it on their own.

MC, in the beginning, just wanting to be independent again.

MC, being so small and so magic-less and so weak against everyone else, just wanting to be seen as capable.

They refuse any help. They do everything from chores to homework to everything else in between. They don't need magic. They don't need help. They were able to do everything they needed to in their own world, so what makes this one so different?

Even with the frustrations of needing something magical for some specific reason, they find a way around or drop it altogether.

They don't need help.

They don't want help.

They...

They are enough...right?

Day 8: Mafia AU

Every single time someone makes Azul out to be a pathetic easily bullied guy with no ability to defend himself whatsoever an angel loses its wings falls to the ground and fucking dies.

Please remember, Azul's overblot was the exception, not the norm. He's not a pathetic little crybaby. The thing about this portrayal is that it does insinuate the idea that someone is weak and "pathetic" for having a breakdown when it's this widespread, clearly genuinely belief that a character is pathetic as evidenced by one breakdown.

Same goes for Riddle. Yes, he had a breakdown during his overblot, but with both him and Azul, that was an exception, not the norm. There are plenty of scenes where they've both shown themselves to be smug and powerful characters.

Heck, even during Azul's breakdown, he did end up displaying his true power by sucking that literal magic and talent out of all the students nearby. Leona literally stated that his Unique Magic was forbidden. Riddle was known as the Crimson Tyrant because of the way he treated others. Azul isn't going to cry every time someone insults him, case in point, the way he behaves with Jamil, who makes a habit out of it. He doesn't run off feeling hollow after every interaction, because, well, he keeps coming back! And his enthusiasm is never hankered!

Even when dealing with physically stronger individuals, like Floyd (and most twst characters let's face it most of the cast has six packs), Riddle is never afraid. It was once mentioned that he effortlessly overpowered Floyd during the opening ceremony in Beans Day. With his magic, he's not weak, and he's certainly not helpless.

Obviously, while you can write whatever you want, I just want to explain why I believe that characterization is inaccurate. I love writing fics myself, and I (a long with most fic writers I've asked) prefer writing things that seem like they could reasonably happen with the characters and/or au in question.
