Making Simon Hawaiian bc I can. He’s like my one nephew that bites me

Ok he’s nothing like that but idc he’s my kin I’ve demanded it

Making Ralph his haole friend everyone stuffs with food and asks invasive questions abt like he’s not just a guy

“Your folks like eat like this?”

“Um.. pretty much. Maybe bread more.”

aggressive nodding with squinted eyes

Also did yall even know I was Hawaiian. I’m also Asian as hell and. Irish.

I’ve been laying on the jalph stance pretty thick so I feel the need to clarify that I am so chill abt shipping guys

Ik im a fake jalph truther ik but like i can also see them as friends or in other ships or whatever else like this blog is welcome to most all relationship n just individual interpretations of the boys alr im not strict im just very passionate abt my tweets lmfao

pls if u have thoughts or requests that differ from mine do share with the class, the class loves diversity n evbs opinions

NO LIKE INAPPROPRIATE THINGS THO

should be obvious but it’s the scary big bad world of the internet so pls don’t be creepy, they’re 12

can you do an analysis of Simon but through an autism centered perspective . if that makes sense

I’m no expert in neurodivergent behaviors but his little knack of imparting rlly sound advice or comfort and being misunderstood/read wrong is something that I think of immediately

people disregard him throughout the entire book, and while he’s no Peter in knowledge, he has a sense of emotional intelligence and self reflection

he’s probably the only one on the island able to step back and take control of seemingly uncontrollable circumstances- discovering the beast was just a dead body, finding the glade of beauty in the forest, and sitting down and just listening to Ralph as a leader.

He knows how to take care of his needs while being aware enough to buckle down and help make huts when most evb was either telling Ralph what to do or playing around with Jack

He’s a symbol of purity and innocence through the canon eye, but read with this interpretation in mind, you could view his authenticity and simple notions as the straight forward thinking and unquestioned acceptance of his needs often associated with autism

His being called queer and loony is also supportive since autistic people are clocked by neurotypical nine times outve nine- Peter thinks he’s stupid, which makes sense bc he’s representative of education and intellectual society. Jack thinks he’s soft and preyish, which makes sense bc he’s representative of war and the status quo of ‘man’ and ‘power’. Ralph thinks he’s queer, which makes sense bc he represents democracy- ‘majority rules’- and Simon’s outlier personality clashes with it more than Jacks. (like a two party systems- Simon would be a useless non-voter or unpopular third party, EVEN THO HE HELPS RALPH)

All in all, I’d say he’s a pretty solid example of what it’s like living in a world not meant for you, and the struggles of trying to be a contributing member anyways- even if you seem to be doing it wrong no matter how hard you try.

His being killed by everybody, including Ralph, is also very significant because that’s just it. He’s an outlier and no one is willing to accommodate him, even when he’s done nothing wrong. (His being apart of but not being apart of the choir rlly punctuates it)

We could make the argument that his being mistaken as the beast in his last minutes shows the stigma autistic people get, with allistic often getting ‘the creeps’ from them, but I feel I’ve yapped past your interest enough for one tweet lmfao

giving Jack an extremely sad home life isn’t the worst thing in the world, and it has a level of interest and emotion I fw, I’m just a little bored with the whole:

Guy That Fucks Everything Is Ac Hurting Inside trope

I think it’s even more interesting to give him a moderately empty childhood, or even a mildly good one- I feel the the island is a part of self-expression and something missing in Jack personally, rather than a reprieve for trauma yk

Not shaming shitty father headcanons tho, I still eat em up lmfao, just throwing this into the sphere

also honourable mention relating to my last post, scar (the lion king) and roger are the same argue with the wall

NOT MY ART ‼️‼️

ESPECIALLY in @dally-cola-aka-money artstyle i love your art and the way you draw roger made me immediately think of scar

lotf headcanon that roger’s parents are convinced their son is the nicest boy on earth he comes home from school and says ‘i had a great day today mummy i learnt so much in mathematics and geography and my choir practice is going swimmingly” when in reality him and jack threw paninis and rocks at year 4s and played bogies in the back of the classroom

Headcanon! 🤓 ☝️

the kids’ diets/eating habits/weight/etc is kinda fucked after their eating patterns they developed on the island

jack headcanon: his face is a lighter than the rest of his body because he always covered it with paint

@lotftober2024 day 10: headcanons !!!

the drawing is just ralph doodling :))

im very tired so few headcanons written, but i have lots so feel free to ask and ill probably answer them later 😇 (i fell asleep before posting this at 11pm help)

- Jack

his parents spent very little time with him, mainly leaving him with the church or with tutors

his parents could only express how disappointed they were in the fact jack became a "savage", rather than "acting like an english boy", and didnt care much if at all about the long-lasting effects and trauma the island caused him

jack is the way he is because of his parents.

he has never had any siblings, nor even met any of his extended family, but will forever feel like his ability to lead is an expectation, and he has no other choice to be a leader, otherwise he has no purpose in the group (basically canon but some people choose to ignore it...)

ralph was his unintentional gay awakening (/silly)

post-island jack was terrified of seeing ralph again because he'll never escape the guilt of almost killing him

Simon

selective mutism

was raised by his grandparents

modern-y simon would wear long naturey themed skirts (notbsure how to describe it

anemic

listens to his friends yap happily, and could talk/write about how much he loves and enjoys all of them and how different their personalities and perspectives on things are

genuinely enjoyed choir

Ralph

poor boy is severely traumatized.

based on a fix i read, but hes overly observant and paranoid about his surroundings, and cant handle pigs, spears, being chased (even in sports or playtime), and being snuck up on

refused to eat meat for months after getting off the island in fear it was pork

has frequent nightmares about the night simon died

wants to be angry and hate jack, but hes unfortunately aware that they were just kids, he heard the men on the television say it, they were all just a bunch of silly kids that decided to play war

his parents were never strictly religious, so he never really went to church

his first time in the church mightve been visiting the funeral/s for simon, piggy, and the mulberry boy

he isnt much of an artist, but more healed post-island ralph that's more amended with jack doodles them both in little stick figures

Roger

awful awful parents

parents are also why he is the way that he is

ended up in some form of foster care after the island

was forced into choir because his mom wanted him to do something she could brag about, but his dad thought it was the stupidest thing, and that he dhould be preparing himself to join the silly army like he did

used to absolutely adore christmas

hated choir for a while because his dad did, until it became a safe space

now he genuinely enjoys it

he really likes animals

feels genuine guilt for what he did to piggy, and felt sick in the moment of him doing it

мне помог переводчик, так что не знаю, насколько точен текст+ использовал сленг.

headcanons for three hunters from LOTF. there's appearance, character and a bit of upbringing.

Jack.

Very light, almost white eyes;

⁃ one of the palest on the island. almost not tanned;

Unlike Roger, he kills animals as needed (and to show off);

⁃ Not as much of a bitch as it might seem. he makes mistakes out of envy or stupidity, childish naivety;

⁃ my conscience will really torment me for what I 've done;

Perhaps his father had high hopes for him;

In addition to the church , there are many other circles;

⁃ but not an absolute excellent student;

For someone an example to follow, for someone an object of hatred;

ambiguous relationships with teachers and adults in general;

A terrible envious person. envy does not allow him to live in peace;

He likes to feel responsible, but rarely always copes with this burden;

There is a younger brother.

Roger.

Eye color ranges from dark red to crimson. A game of lighting and mood swings;

The longest hair of this "holy" trinity;

⁃ it is as neutral as possible at first glance, but does not inspire confidence;

We are sane. He knows perfectly well what he's doing, but he doesn't see a problem with it.;

Calm and rational;

⁃ simple in appearance, in fact mysterious and closed in itself;

⁃ does not have leadership qualities. he is more likely to follow someone, even if he does not agree with the opinion of the leader;

He is brought up in a deeply religious family, which has affected his psyche;

I have recently begun to despise God;

Friendship with Jack played a crucial role in his fate. Thanks to Meredue, Roger felt a sense of cruelty for the first time;

He doesn't kill for food, he kills to drown out the feeling of anger;

⁃ In general, the zookeeper;

The only child in the family;

⁃ problems with morality. obviously.

Maurice.

⁃ yellow eyes;

⁃ dark sandy hair;

Yes , it 's golden;

He is quite naive, but at the same time inclined to philosophical reflections. Floating with the flow of life;

A humanitarian. Loves history;

He doesn 't study very well, he 's still a slob;

Knows more than it seems;

His father is his main role model;

He likes to communicate with his father, learns a lot from him;

The only child in the family;

Likes to mind his own business;

⁃ likes FUNNY THINGS;

⁃ Fervent and carefree;

⁃ You can leave the children on it;

⁃ does not always come to the right decision, it can easily go astray;

- He tends to choose a leader for himself and imitate him in everything. He does not always look at the correctness of the leader's decisions.
