β wait - you know what this means, right? we both have super powers! just think about all the stuff we can do to heal the world!a delve within : spotify , pinterest , instagram , twitter , straw page , ngl .a headcanon heavy / canon compliant, semi - selective and multi-media inspired portrayal of harold osborn as depicted in insomniac's gameverse composed by ilse19 (minors do not interact). β he / him / his. β based in a united kingdom timezone. β this account is oc and crossover friendly.triggering / mature themes will be present and labelled - proceed with caution!

blogwide guidelines
β β RULE ONE.
Due to both the mature themes present within the media as well as admin age (of which I am 19), I will not write with anyone below the age of 18 on this account. If the information on your page suggests you are 18 and over, I will write with you and fully engage; however, if I find out otherwise, I will end our roleplay and block your account from interacting with my own immediately. Please respect this, and understand I do it in order to keep comfort with both parties.β β RULE TWO.
This page will most likely contain triggering content so, please bare this in mind when engaging with my content. I want to first specify that just because something isn't a trigger for me doesn't mean I will not respect it if it is a trigger for you. I am aware that some of the themes within this comic can be triggering for certain individuals, and although they are themes I have no issues discussing (although I can have an issue with how some are used within the context of a certain plot, in which case I will let you know), not everyone will feel the same way so please let me know your triggers so I can best accommodate you and make you comfortable throughout our time together. The only trigger I have is sexual content, which will not take place on this account in any form unless it is with a ship partner whom I have developed with for a good while and, even then, this will be reserved for DM only. If you refuse to respect this or any other of my rules, you will be removed promptly from my page. And, although this is not a 'roleplay' trigger, I would like to ask you not to engage in the activity of OOC venting to me without my consent too!β β RULE THREE.
Out of character, I am a queer admin who will not tolerate any form of discrimination. If you dislike any head canons or inclusions of sexuality and gender for my various character portrayals that may or may not apply to this certain fandom, then leave. Do not disrespect me or any marginalised groups in the process. If you display any forms of racism, sexism, homophobia, ableism, transphobia, (ect) or just horrible behaviour in general, I will not hesitate to block you and remove you from my page
. Some people seem to cross the line between what they consider to be IC and just self-inserting and being an asshole so, no Peter Parker would not be racist and I donβt care if your excuse is that this is βyour portrayal.β This is you willingly choosing to create an environment that includes these traits as a βquirkβ when other people suffer from being discriminated against and harassed every single day. This page is a safe space for all except those who actively harm others so, let's not be a dick.
β β RULE FOUR.
Please respect that I have a life outside of roleplay that sometimes has to take priority! I both deal with school, physical health problems and mental health issues that mean I sometimes have to take a break from writing for my own well-being so, I am sorry if replies sometimes take longer than usual! If you do constantly spam my messages to an overwhelming extent however, a block will be offered if necessary. Roleplay is always one of my top priorities, but sometimes, I do need a break and can not keep up - please understand that.β β RULE FIVE.
I am always open to having conversations out of character and making friends with people on this platform! I am also open to taking vents however, sometimes I am in a place where I mentally cannot handle these kinds of conversations so, if you ever feel the need to vent, please let me know in advance before you do so or else I will not be able to reply or offer you my full attention. I want to be the best help I can for you, but I can not do that if I am unable to emotionally process your worries and concerns in a healthy way, meaning I can not help you.β β RULE SIX.
When writing, I tend to write a l o t however, that doesn't mean you have to! My lengths can vary depending on what you're comfortable with, but in order for that to take place, you need to let me know the kind of literacy you want in advance
. If you don't, there is no way I can accommodate you! Please let me know in advice if you have a preference and, if you don't, you will get my usual writing length but you don't have to write the same amount in response, write as much as you would like however, I would appreciate more than a one liner to a fully fleshed starter.

PERSONALITY. harry osborn is a boy who wants to bring the world back in tune . with good intention at the heart of all he does, he desire to heal the broken . . . yet the β how β is also put into question . though he longs for a chance to shine individually without the spotlight being shared or dimmed in the face of his victories, harry is also someone who replies heavily on the presence , validation and love of others . a tainted relationship with a father you long to be good enough for for more than twenty years of your life can do that , you know , especially after the loss of one of the only figures in your life who could soothe this open wound. and relying on others can have its downsides when jealousy slips its way into the mix , even when you are aware of those unjust feelings and suppress them as much as you can allow . but they never die as you watch the world around you live in a way you never can, watch others succeed at what you always appear to fail and receive an affection or attention that once belonged to you before you fell behind a clock that never stops clicking .beneath a mask of extroverted nonchalance is an individual desperate to cling to those he cares for in a hold tight enough to maybe strangulate yet the full force of this urge is always drawn back into its place before it can manifest . but it exists , in a muted form , as a fear of being left behind taunts him in the subconscious of his mind each day without fail . below the surface bubbles a tension that is painted over with a shrug and a smile but , donβt let such troubles bring hesitation to forming a bond with the young osborn for he is no monster . besides , donβt even the kindest souls have a point in which to shatter .α£
β Born as the only child of both Norman Osborn and his wife, Emily , one would anticipate nothing but fortune, privilege and opportunity sprinkled with life's odd ups and downs that afflict us all whether we be the heir to a company whose presence can be found in every corner of New York City to a Daily Bugle photographer just trying to make ends meet. And, in a way you would be right however, perhaps tragedy lingers more than you may realise when you peak behind the door of the Osborn family.The death of Emily Osborn left a hole in a family once so seemingly full, even if it was only those closest to them that could see the distance that now took shape in the gazes of Norman and his son, whose worlds had crumbled and slipped away between their fingertips. And Harry was changed
though by how much was something his company only saw in the rare, one-off glimpses. A new purpose had been weighed onto teenage shoulders, a responsibility, and he was going to spend the remainder of his life trying to bring it to its fullest fruition for he refused to let the work of his mother die with her. No, he was going to nurture it, give it new life in her name whilst ensuring what she had left behind could continue to flourish as she intended. Harry refused to let his mother's efforts be in vain or to be neglected by an Oscorp board whose only goal was financial gain, the trail they left behind be damned. His dreams for future profession and career path could no longer be dreams - he had to make them reality.And so his efforts were poured into his desire to do good. To aid, to encourage and insight change by walking down the same path as Emily once had - the trail of an environmental lawyer (or, in his case, attorney) and, despite his struggles with academia, he persevered, intent on being worthy of the destiny he felt now bestowed him. But a problem had begun to arise. It began rather small, you know how it is. Those occasional 'off' days where you felt stress just might be getting the better of you (you'll sleep it off, no biggie), nights of stomach upset where the bathroom floor and a toilet were your best friend and you were unable to keep anything down (it was only once or twice, what's the harm? No need to panic), the headaches that go on for days (most likely a migraine, it'll pass). Until it is no longer 'on occasion,' it is once every three days. Until you eat less to stop the cramps that start to rush through your stomach. Until those migraines leave you bedridden for days and your only excuse to those who question you is that you are suffering from a hangover from hell. Until your legs start to struggle to balance and you need monitors and drips by your bedside in fear that you may not wake up tomorrow. Until the realisation that your body is killing you with the very same hand - a genetic, neurodegenerative condition known as Oshtoran Syndrome - that stole the life of your mother. Harry Osborn was dying and he hadn't even lived yet.
And GR-27, the bastard, the potential cure was close, Norman could feel it. But it was taking too long. He had been saying the same thing for years but he no longer had the time to waste. The last time he had stalled cost him the life of the woman he loved and he refused to allow it to happen again. So, a temporary solution was needed, something to keep Harry alive as progress was made yet nothing of that nature could be developed at a fast enough pace. Not with the resources from Earth anyway.And so, in the summer of a distant July, Harry Osborn stepped into a treatment that he would be intertwined with until the year of 2021, bonding with a symbiote obtained from a crashing meteor collected by Oscorp themselves and being kept hidden within the walls of the Osborn Penthouse behind a code and picture frame (and a false trip to Europe to clear up such a prolonged absence) and, most importantly, being kept alive with the likes of Dr. Curtis Connors keeping a watchful eye on his every movement. In this tank, his illness was at bay. In this tank, Norman had Harry where he wanted him and in this tank, the beginning of the end had been set in motion.And not a soul could have ever anticipated the consequences before the final curtain was to fall.
main verse timeline
β β I.
_*** NOTE: verses listed here are not the only verses i am familiar with or write. although my portrayal here is bound to the world of the games, you are more than welcome to invade my dms to discuss different ones! all interpretations of harry will contribute to this portrayal in some way, even if only slightly! if you wish to write with a different variation that can better accommodate your muse, you can find me on @goblisms on both twitter and instagram, which is set on the comic-verse of 6160!
β β II.
as of right now, the main aspect of my portrayal being presented on the timeline is stationed following the events of the 'hunt to live, live to hunt' chapter and before the mission 'good men.' i am happy to write both before and after those points however, for the sake of having a ground of perspective for where in harry's arc i'm currently writing , it's there! in my portrayal of the insomniac-verse, i will be using all three games (marvel's spider-man, marvel's spider-man: miles morales and marvel's spider-man 2), the dlc (spider-man: the city that never sleeps) and the first game's prequel novel (spider-man : hostile takeover) in my writing! i am aware of miles' prequel novel too and will read it once i've had the free time to do so as i do have it purchased.also please note that i have not played any of these games first hand! my portrayal does come from a place of multiple gameplay sit-throughs and research so, if there are small game aspects i do miss, please forgive me!
β β III.
my portrayal of venom (outside of using what is presented in the game) will also take inspiration from the ultimate spider-man animated series. i may use the original sam raimi trilogy and sony-verse rendition too to aid in crafting it, however, they will most likely be secondary sources and not relied on too heavily.β β IV.
my portrayal of harry will also be headcanoned as homosexual in this earth. that means i will only ship with male muses - please respect that! if, as mentioned in my rules, you are not a fan of this headcanon, you are more than welcome to leave my page but do not harass me or those i write with in the process.
alternate universes
β β RISE OF THE GOBLIN - the post - canon spider - man 2 alterative universe.
(under development) the g-serum was ready (one of norman osborn's many fail-safe options that he had locked in labs all across the bustling city) and it had one purpose, at least, for now - to bring harold osborn out from his vegetive state. and it had. he breathed, he spoke, he looked his way and clutched his father's hand in a state of panic as his body was forced back into action and norman didn't have to face defeat today. but, a need for revenge still lingered on the tip of the older man's tongue as harry's health continued to deteriorate rapidly and, in the process of leading an operation to bring the spider-men to justice for the heartache they brought upon their family, the boy was left with nothing more than a suit designed for combat field injury to keep his condition steady, a serum whose side effects remained undetermined and unchecked turmoil suppressed with an order to stay within the safety of the osborn penthouse under all circumstances. but, as untested formulas do, their perks came with an inevitable downfall and in this case, it had its way with harry in manners unanticipated, including breaking the mind of the already broken further and infecting him with a new destructive virus . . . not that he could ever recall it, of course . . .
β β EARTH - 120703.
back from a (real) europen venture, harry osborn returned to new york city with the company of oscorp in the palm of his hands following his father's death from retroviral hypodysplasia. a twenty year old ceo to a billion dollar success, a reunion with perhaps the only true friend he ever had known accompanied by a future unwritten - what more could anyone ask for? well, all would be fine and well if harry hadn't inherited something else with his osborn name and that was the very same genetic condition that ended norman osborn. and it was progressing - fast. with time bleeding through trembling fingertips, betrayals from those you thought you knew and a board desperate to bury the son of their former founder as a means to seize control, harry is left stranded with one hope. who knew that the very spider that bit spider-man could offer him a second chance? and, better still, who could have anticipated that oscorp would have stored the venom from those very same spiders before they were destroyed? maybe things would turn around after all . . .
β β EARTH - 12041.
both on this earth and its genderbent mirrored counterpart, you shall meet the very first harold (and harriett) osborn to be the primary host of the venom symbiote. as norman osborn obsesses over the recreation of spider-man's powers to craft an unbeatable army, his son lingers within the shadows of this life, desperate to be shown his existence has value and left in waves of his own silenced frustration at constant cold shoulders and empty excuses for homes. so, after an attack from a strange entity interrupts a classic high school party hosted by yours truly, it seemed that the stars finally aligned for the young osborn when he obtained a sample of it, which he kept as his own and kept enclosed within a device that, at the press of a button, would control the application of a new black suit at will - and the black-suited spider-man was born! one the papers praised, one the people adored, one who not only possessed the very same powers of the hero his father engrossed with but, by all accounts, was better than him too. what could possibly go wrong in a scheme so perfect, after finally being gifted a reward so fitting? to that, only time would tell . . .
