With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility Or Whatever

if the graphic novel doesn’t have every jack ralph argument i will JUMP out of the WINDOW!!!!!

Kicks my feet. I know the age of criminal responsibility in the UK was 8 at the time that LOTF was set but I choose to believe none of the kids were charged bc no one wanted to talk about what happened on the island because they mimicked how their fathers never talked about the war ty.

DAY 6: CHILDHOOD

BABY RALPH

«What could be safer than the bus center with its lamps and wheels?»

BABY RALPH

haven’t drawn these kids in a while… requests from @piggyintheflesh and @reanimatedradiostation

I think because Ralph is my favorite character I’m always begging people to understand he’s such a flawed character…

Like obviously he makes fun of Piggy’s asthma, doesn’t ask his name in return, and tells everyone the nickname he explicitly said not tell.

And even more than that when he goes hunting with Jack he gets so excited and into it, bragging that he hit the pig a little bit. He makes fun of Simon to Jack just so he’ll agree with him and they’ll stop arguing (even tho Simon was the only one helping him).

Ralph wants Jack to like him almost as much as he wants to get rescued. Those things are like his number 1 and 2 priorities.

And when those two things start to conflict… he loses it. When Jack leaves he for a moment forgets why he wants to get rescued, no?

Like I won’t be a Jalph truther right now so even platonically with no crush or anything it’s like Ralph is this normal, kinda cool, well-liked, happy go lucky boy at the beginning of the novel and throughout he turns into this yelling, bitter mess because he can’t get Jack to like him.

just one of those days!
