jay has his otter dads it's fine

terezi has dragonmom who is a YOUNG EXCITABLE type of mom!!! and would probably be worried about some of terezi's choices over the past few years (gamzee) (i mean gamzee) but happy that she is doing better now?!

duotastic: lmao. I DONT REALLY THINK OF THE OTTERS AS PARENTS although they are definitely family

anyway the otters would be happy that jay is doing Good Things for the coven '-'

there's also solon who . . .

solon would find it HILARIOUS that jay is trying to be this responsible coven organizer

haha! do they all know that you're not a person! haha!

then he would probably ruin everything by showing up slash . . . get shanked by dirk

jay's actual birth parents are ciphers. solon claims they abandoned him but i don't trust solon and . . . i think, neither does jay at this point

I don't think anyone would be surprised if Solon literally stole a baby

relares: RIGHT. like it's possible solon is telling the truth, some parents are real dicks, but.

Tbh I have always believed that the truth is somewhere in the middle

Given that present day mainland continues to be very violent, between wars and monsters and bandits

I think it is true that jay was separated from his parents when he was too young to remember them

Or it's possible they died/were killed

Or they were refugees and got separated in the chaos of fleeing one crummy situation into another

yeah there is definitely a Lot of stuff it could potentially be

Whatever the case is I think that it's true that when Solon came in to the picture jay had no one

And the truth is Solon himself probably doesn't know and doesn't care; the abandonment angle just played into the narrative he was pushing

There is also literally nothing to say that The Bell is an actual memento from his birth family and not something Jay latched onto when he was young

Anyway the point is: Solon is a known liar and also pretty deluded so any information from him cannot be considered credible

b-basically

but yeah i've also wondered if the bell was not just like. a random carrot solon dangled in front of him or something

although the fact that solon kept it is . . . odd

Honestly........ God

It doesn't surprise me cos it falls in line with solon's behavior in a way

Keeping in mind that Solon is a liar anyway

So Solon says over and over that Jay is less than nothing; both as a person and to him, personally

The latter of which is both true and false

Jay was a valuable investment and I sincerely doubt Solon would have casually thrown him aside; he did it to save his own skin

What mattered was Jay believed this was an everyday danger

And given that solon's move was to essentially reclaim Jay once he figured out Jay survived

Yeah, he kept the bell-- as a trophy

god. no that makes sense when you say it like that

Solon continues to be one fucked up motherfucker

if we get to do dreamscapes again--!

coming back to do this meme for everyone on the muselist: tara-fay's parents are proud of her, u kno, saving the world and shit but would also kind of like to ground her; shirl doesn't, as far as we can tell, have parents; victor also doesn't have parents

not literally in the sense that he was probably birthed from someone's loins but literally in the sense that the creator has said he might as well be an ice elf from outer space

elliot has . . . immeasurably shitty parents. i think his dad doesn't give enough of a shit about him to approve or not approve of his activities

his mom might kind of secretly approve but she'd never admit that to herself or anyone

holly ALSO has shitty parents who don't approve of her life choices

sin's dad is loving and would be proud of her but also is kind of like UMM, THIS SITUATION YOU'RE IN IS DANGEROUS,

i think that's everyone???

at whoever wrote legendia: WHERE THE HELL ARE STELLA AND SHIRLEY'S PARENTS

(given that they are ferines: dead, probably.)

anyway I sincerely hope dream solon gets stabbed to hell

so dream otters can dance over his stupid corpse again

he did get his soul ripped out last time, which was fun

wow, I'm surprised he had enough to rip out
