Good evening, Tumblr user.

In front of you is a post asking everyone to list their favorite female Blorbos in the tags, stating that OP is tired of the focus on men in fandom.

You must participate and tag all of your favorite female characters.

If you include any characters who were canonically written as male in your tags regardless of reason, the reverse bear trap attached to your head will activate.

Begin.

The Group B girls are criminally underrated. The movie at least gave them more interesting parts than the book did, but reading about them in the Maze would do wonders for my mental health 🥰

Please and thank you, Mr. Dashner

I feel like instead of the Maze Cutter series, we would enjoy a Maze B TMR series. Like, yes, I know we already know what's happened in the books, but it would be great to see other POVs

I think it should go something like this:

The Maze Runner (Group B) - Rachel, since she's Thomas's opposite.

The Scorch Trials (Group B) - Aris, because I need to see what was going on with his and Teresa's planning.

The Death Cure (Group B) - Sonya, because she's a part of the group that escapes before Thomas and the others do, and she's one of the ones chucked back in the Maze.

Or Aris for all three, because my Roman Empire is Movie!Aris and I really wanna love Book!Aris.

Just a thought.

Did I just draw Aris as a cowboy because is all I imagine each time I remember his subject title is "The Partner"? Yes. Yes, I did. Enjoy.

My contribution to this fandom is done for today.

This is canon.

I don't know how I managed to forget the moment where Thomas just threw out the most diabolical question to Aris in the books. Like, yes, I understand why he did it- he was trying to create a diversion so he could escape. But looking that boy dead in the eyes and asking "What did Rachel look like as she bled to death?" IS VILE.

Like- THOMAS 😭

The life of every Maze Runner fan

been writing to much fluff lately, gotta go back to my roots 😔

Alright, hear me out:

Movie!Aris is my all-time favorite TMR character ever. Like, his book counterpart makes him look like Mother Teresa, and I think that's beautiful. He has a great relationship with the girls, and I love it so much that I can not put it into words. Also, he's played by Jacob Lofland, so what's not to love?

But Book!Aris is a lot different.

He came first, so he was the first Aris I encountered when I was like - 12. I thought he was odd at first, and then I didn't like him because of the betrayal. I considered him manipulative and as bad as Teresa, so he was definitely ranked low on my list of favorites. But having dropped the series for a few years and watching the movies before re-reading, I gained a soft spot for Aris.

After reading the Fever Code, I started to recognize that Aris was likely not as on-board with WICKED as Teresa was. Because Teresa was Ride-or-Die with WICKED, fully ready to give her own life for its missions. Aris's commitment, on the other hand, seemed more...casual, than passionate.

He was more nonchalant about it, one of his quotes being something along the lines of "I guess I'd rather sacrifice a million to save billions." I personally think that Aris's already casual attitude about WICKED slowly turned into one of disdain, especially after they killed Rachel.

I remember, in the Scorch Trials, that when he was telling Thomas to go into the gas chamber in the betrayal scene he made a comment like "Maybe this is all a ruse and we'll all be fine after this" which is EXACTLY what happened. Teresa saying "Shut up, Aris," made me think that Aris was trying to reassure Thomas that everything was going to be okay, that he wasn't fully immersed in the lies and deceit like Teresa was. The fact that he seemed to be the one who was actually ashamed and felt like he deserved Thomas's anger. Teresa seemed more focused on making Thomas forgive her, which made me really feel for him because he's recognizing that he did something horrible and likely doesn't deserve forgiveness.

I think after Rachel, Aris started seeing the bad. They killed his best friend, which I'm betting they didn't tell him they were going to do. I see Aris gradually coming to hate WICKED, and he very well could have been the one who helped Teresa change her mind about WICKED and sell them out to the Right Arm. This is why I think we should get a TMR book from Aris's POV, or some excerpt from his POV so we can see what was actually going on inside of his head.

So, overall, while I love Movie!Aris, I'm starting to love Book!Aris more than I originally did. But Aris is definitely my favorite character.

so, we've know one another for some time now, tmr geeks. tell me, who is your favourite character and why? i need to know and understand it so bad it hurts— and be as LENGTHY as you want, confess your secrets, i love it.
