Updated Johnny & Ghost Rider designs for Ghost Rider: Re-Imagined!! These two were in sore need of a better cleanup job for their character references.
As a bit of a bonus, here are several other outfits that they might appear in! …and a few you might not see them in. :V Poor Ghost Rider. Whatever Johnny’s wearing when he transforms, he’s kinda stuck with it…
I love this! I really wish I could find a good Ghost Rider Fic.
I hope that anti doesn’t get turned into the joke of the fandom, like yeah it’s fun to poke fun at things and I love the memes that have come out of this but, I just hope there’s a bigger story behind him and I’m really beyond excited to see what seán does with him (and possibly the other egos???) because I’d LOVE to see that. I’m just the kinda person that loves to pick apart every single detail of a story and theorize about EVERYTHING so to see him do something like that would make my theorist heart go nyoom
Seeing this
makes look up for the future, as long time as it might take 🙂
sometimes you say or do bad things while you’re in an awful mental place. sometimes you say things that are rude or uncalled for or manipulative. and i’m not going to hold that against you. mental illness is hard, and no one is perfect. but once you’re through that episode, you need to take steps to make amends. you need to apologize.
“i couldn’t help it, i was having a bad episode” is a justification, not an apology.
“i’m so fucking sorry, i fucked up, i don’t deserve to live, i should stop talking to anyone ever, i should die” is a second breakdown and a guilt trip. it is not an apology.
when you apologize, the focus should be on the person you hurt. “i’m sorry. i did something that was hurtful to you. even if i was having a rough time, you didn’t deserve to hear that,” is a better apology. if it was a small thing, you can leave it at that.
if you caused significant distress to the other person, this is a good time to talk about how you can minimize damage in the future. and again, even if it is tempting to say you should self-isolate and/or die, that is not a helpful suggestion. it will result in the person you’re talking to trying to talk you out of doing that, which makes your guilt the focus of the conversation instead of their hurt.
you deserve friendship, and you deserve support. but a supportive friend is not an emotional punching bag, and mental illness does not absolve you of responsibility for your actions. what you say during a mental breakdown doesn’t define you. how you deal with the aftermath though, says a lot.
This is the most carefully-nuanced discussion of this I think I have ever seen. Thank you for writing this.
