Y’all just to preface I am insane (I mean I am on tumblr so…).

WHAT IF…

When Charles went to find Edwin in hell what if Edwin wasn’t in the room. What if Charles went down to hell and he best friend of some odd 30 years or so wasn’t there and all he saw was he’s best friends body being ripped apart by the spider-baby-demon-thing. That would’ve been devastating but also like what if he got to see Edwin running and getting caught and then torn apart. That’s would also have been devastating but what if. I mean sure I would’ve been sobbing hysterically and all that but like it would’ve been fun (put me in that writers room y’all all be dead, and cry hysterically but it would be fun).

She’s never wrong so

She has bewitched me, body and soul❤️

good afternoon i made a thing

Lilith is so special to me in dbd

Edwin is evidence that the sassy man apocalypse isn’t real… nope, it’s just an innate part of all men to be sassy no matter the time period.

this is cinema. to me

I finally convinced my friend to start dbd!!!!

(I sent them a million edits of all the characters and they finally broke because all the women are absolutely gorgeous)

No because like genuinely

WHAT WAS THAT STORY LINE?!?!?

Let us have the cute lesbian couple plsssss

Watching Dead Boy Detectives like:

Man, I love the Butcher Lesbian with the Librarian Lesbian 🥰

Me, 20 min later: 😳😳😳

So like WHEN we get a season 2

How do we think Edwin will react to seeing Niko again?

Like cause we see her with the sprites so idk

Me watching dbd at all hours as if I don’t have things I need to do

THIS IS SO CUTE IM DYING

Niko gave him assigned reading

I love Monty smmmmmm

He’s so pretty

just monty looking effortlessly ⋆⭒˚.⋆ pretty ๋࣭ ⭑⚝

Yes this is another post about Dead Boy Detectives okay I’m on a roll.

Simons punishment in Hell is so heartbreaking to me. He has to tear pages out of the book where he put Edwin and his initials and the ‘headmaster’ tells him he can stop when he finishes the whole book, but the book keeps replacing itself. And it hits so emotionally if you have ever had to hide or repress queer emotion. Simon is being punished for simply having emotion and he thinks if he can stop having that emotion (finish tearing out all the pages) all the pain will stop. Being queer isn’t something that just leaves you… it is always there and sometimes it causes you pain because others can’t accept it maybe even you yourself can’t accept it. (Ex. Simon saying Does it have to be torture? Bring the way we are?) Then our boy Edwin who has been trying to deal with the repression he’s had for so long tells him that it’s okay to be queer and if you ever make yourself believe it’s not okay you are making your own hell.

That whole scene was very sad and also happy since Simon ends up accepting himself. I cried about it multiple times (rn is one of those times).

Edwin asking Charles “what’s a handjob?” is my version of what would kill a Victorian child.

The forever question you have to ask in wlw relationships. Are the sparks between us because we like each other or because a sprite is trying to kill you?

i really thought there was something between them at first lol

Esther Finch was a bitch serving every time she was on screen (Im in love with her).

Edwin Paine is me if anyone actually liked me.

“Do you think it has to be torture? Being the way we are?” -Simon (Dead Boy Detectives 2024)

I love my wife (she’s a horrible person but that’s fine, I forgive her.)

I wanna be sillies.

Hello dead boy detectives fandom! Let's do something fun again.

Sorry for the last few, I didn't have enough space for everyone so I had to group a few characters.

I might be controversial, I know a lot of people don't like it, but in my opinion Crystal dresses the best 💜💜🖤. Post amnesia Crystal too. Her outfits are loud and weird but that's what I like about them.

Bravo if anyone picked any of the last 3 options! Interesting choices👏👏👏.

Ask Game. 14

Hello totally random person!

Question 14? You evil bastard.

Anyway

14. Least favourite character!

Fuck. This shit is hard. Every character there is beautifully done. How can I pick something I don't like? I'm obsessed with everything.

The character I used to dislike the most was Esther but fuck, I gotta admit, she's iconic. She's a good campy villain, she deserves the credit. I hated her only because I resonated with Charles and Edwin too much so I disliked her as the enemy (childish, I know), but fuck I can't really hate her she's a good character.

It's impossible to dislike anything! Because everything served a purpose. Even the Dandelion sprites, and I don't particularly like them either.

Um. The jocks from episode 5. Because I can't find one redeemable quality about them, I hate those guys. I'm happy they're in hell. They served a purpose in the plot but they got what they deserved.

the charles one broke my heart

good afternoon i made a thing

might be rambling this might mean nothing but omg has anyone thought about how a huge thing™ in dead boy detectives is how women were wronged ?? (and also not just women who were wronged but boys who were shitty assholes but in this essay i am focusing on how women were wronged) am i looking too much into it.. (this is prob not intentional and i am overthinking as per usual but like)

spoilers duh

also this got really long i apologize

so in episode 1 we meet crystal who is basically like the catalyst for everything happening right and this is kinda obvious but like the whole kinda happens because her toxic demon ex bf stole her memories (fuck you david) and like? that was a horrible thing to happen to her and he sucks boo >:( and also throughout the whole show she has to deal with his shittiness and whatnot

and also in episode 1 we obviously see becky aspen who is like a child (specifically a little girl) who was kidnapped by esther (who also only goes after girls like hello?) and about to be fed to her giant snake which like ?? hey now,,, and they have to go in and save her and i feel like it's kinda important esp with the last episode ("she killed hundreds of little girls to stay young; who gets justice for them?" or smth) like it's built on the backbone of women who were wronged

in episode 2 with the dandelion sprites we have niko who lost her dad and her mom wants her to just be better and the sprites literally like infected(?) her while she was trying to feel better or smth (prob a bit of a stretch ngl) so we don't rly see much of this in episode 2

in episode 3 the most obvious thing of all is that the devlin guy murdered his entire family (his wife and two daughters) because he was a bitch and hated that they wanted to leave him which like ?? okay fragile male ego (as crystal so eloquently puts it) like these girls felt haunted by him in life and even in death they were stuck in a loop getting killed by him over and over and over because of his fear they would leave them. he was controlling and abusive and a creep and in the end he killed them. (obviously this episode has other important themes like how charles' trauma is reflected in this and his emotional response to devlin and the horror of controlling/abusive family members but i feel like there's smth to be said with how women keep getting wronged in this show idk)

in episode 4 we get crystal who is still dealing with the effects of her lost memories and her desperation to find her mom (we all know how that turned out) and importantly we get the stuff in the gift shop (specifically lillith and ig the washer woman)

the washer woman is washing away the blood of humanity yadda yadda (she's a rly interesting character i love her) and like when she and crystal are left alone crystal is desperately trying to find how she can have her lost memories and past back and the washer woman gives her that riddle to help her smth smth (basically crystal's memories)

lillith is more introduced here as the goddess of wronged women (and blood magic) (this is self-explanatory i hope)

in episode 5 (this one i feel is also obvious) we get those charming-but-actually-really-shitty jocks who died because maren (brad's gf) murdered them because they were being really horrible. we get shelby who killed herself because they drugged her and ruined her entire life and her future and everything and even in death the boys (though i love them, this was a fault of theirs) were skeptical because the jocks were just so charming

and then we get maren who invites crystal over because of her fear that she would get caught when she was trying to protect herself and she made a(n albeit huge) mistake. brad sent her nudes to his bff richie and they never thought they were in the wrong like hello? i was like wtf but anyways they practically ruined the lives of these girls (maybe not maren because they never fully got out but they could've and either way she ended up turning herself in from her guilt and stuff)

(also note: crystal says "we all lost our lives to boys who went too far" and like.. a big thing™ from my perspective is also how men/boys go too far e.g. the schoolboys (edwin and charlies) and david (crystal) and also the jocks and devlin and later esther's husband and arguably the cat king (don't come at me i actually love him towards the end but for more info check out this post i love their take on him) etc. there's probably more i just can't think of them atm)

in this episode we also meet maxine for like a second(?) time (first being devlin murders in ep 3) where she obviously wronged jenny by stalking her and she doesn't see what's wrong with what she did when she literally tried to murder her, she stalked her, she's apparently done this MULTIPLE times (smth ab this happening "again" which ? oml) and jenny feels horrible about this because she put herself out there for once and she got hurt. and at the end of this episode we see them all hang out and of course david comes back because crystal can't catch a break but back to the topic jenny was almost killed by maxine who did a horrible thing to her

episode 6 we finally hear tragic mick's story. sedna was literally a girl who got sacrificed by her dad because he thought it would help. she was a woman wronged out of the many women wronged on this show and she became a goddess for her trauma yay?? but at the core of that backstory was sedna who was a woman wronged by her father. (and ofc tragic mick and how he became human POOR GUY)

we also have crystal who finally has a way to get david out of her head (did anyone notice it doesn't break till she says "i just wish i could be normal" or smth which is prob kinda why she lost her powers?) all of this has been culminating since the beginning and then later he comes back and he's taunting her and yelling at her for giving up "the one thing that made you special" (come on man :|) she does get her powers back later though yippie (and sees her badass ancestors)

and jenny who is still dealing with the trauma is obviously upset throughout the episode because yk maxine was crazy

episode 7 we have the boys in hell but to keep in theme we have crystal who feels horrible that charles won't let her help and she just goes out to get david to open a gate and jenny follows. jenny then gets violated as david literally possesses her and we get kinda the climax and then the resolution of david and crystal as she realizes her power and takes her memories back and buries him because he was a horrible horrible person to her (and also the comments he made were so creepy like "i want to get back inside you" "let me back in" WHAT THE HELL no way that wasn't intentionally creepy)

and then jenny (poor jenny) has to deal with the fact that she has now been possessed and has to deal with all this creepy shit like can homegirl catch a break goddamn (and speaking of jenny we see maxine on the stairs still clueless to what she did wrong MAXINE OPEN YOUR EYES)

crystal eats her memories

episode 8 she finds out she was a horrible person and her past was not as great as she thought it would be. she treated her friends and strangers badly and she wakes up and she feels horrid. and she thinks it will get better and she calls her mom and her parents did her dirty. they neglected her (didn't even REALIZE she was MISSING) and didn't do shit for her and she probably acted out for attention (in horrible ways i am in no way defending what she did btw but she can be a horrible person and changed as a person crystal they could never make me hate you) and she swallows the rest of her memories and finds out that she was not the person she wanted to be

in episode 8 we also find out esther's backstory. the big bad of it all and i think a huge point in the story is how at the core of it all was a woman who was wronged and turned horrible for it. her husband cheated on her and she killed him but then she couldn't get enough and just wow. just to me the fact that at the core of the story is a woman who was horribly treated and as a result turned into a horrible person (and kind of parallel to crystal who was horribly treated (by her parents and by david) and she finds she can still turn things around and be good) and esther is too far gone as she yk decides to continue being evil

in episode 8, the end of it all, we see that turning point where crystal goes into esther's head and summons lillith. the goddess of wronged women. we see her as crystal yells that esther has been tormenting girls, WRONGING WOMEN, for decades (centuries?). we see the rage in lillith's face as she turns her stare on esther for skewing the gift that lillith gave to a woman scorned. we see lillith drag esther out of the house screaming and AGH i love that so much idk

but yeah those are my thoughts on the amount of women i just saw wronged and this could all mean nothing and i could be very insane and crazy but ! whatever !
