[ Directional Orbit ] Fire - Stage 110 Clear VOD
I cleared Rafayel's Directional Orbit: Fire - Stage 110 yesterday, 05/15, in the most unorthodox way possible; more details about that below. For now I want to give an overview of this stage for those who have yet to reach this far. Stage 110 requires two teams. The Protofield Stellactrum for Team 01 is 6-Pearl memories and for Team 02 its 6-Violet memories. By having a perfect match with the colors for the Protofield Stellactrum your < Resonance Skill > can break 2 Protocore Shield Layers in a single strike and increase DMG to weakened by 100%. For every matched Stellactrum you'll receive an attribute bonus that increase DMG Boost by 5.0% and DMG Reduction by 5.0% (up to 30%). I want to reiterate that there is no right or wrong way to play the game. You should use whatever you have available to you. My game play will differ from yours, but I still wanted to share my experiences and offer tips for the trials. With that said, please feel free to contact me if you ever need advice~ I'm super shy, but I'm always happy to help others. ଘ(੭˃ᴗ˂)੭♡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh boy... how long was I stuck on this stage? The earliest post referenced was recorded on 04/24 so it's been three weeks. Within that time a LOT of resources were invested into my Violet and Pearl builds. This includes leveling up memories, farming protocores, and leveling up said protocores. I wrote a lot of entries about those upgrades, but you can find them all under my #directional orbit fire tag. I have countless hours of game play footage, showcasing my attempts to figure out what worked for me and how could I improve. Even in my clear video you can see where I had to cut my failed attempts out as I was constantly restarting the second half. It's a satisfying feeling to see how far I was able to progress. Unfortunately I don't have an updated screenshot of the final team set up in the overview page. However, the only difference would be switching the solar pairs. Team 01 will use the Violet solars [Deep Sea Riches] and [Deep Sea Promise] and Team 02 will use the Pearl solars [Temple's Promise] and [Temple's Sunset]. No other changes were made; all of the lunar memories remained the same. Team 01
After switching things up a bit I went into the first half of the fight with Abysswalker Companion using Phantasma Sands. Previously I was able to auto battle this part without any issues. Having a perfect match meant my resonance skill was able to break 2 protocore shields in a single strike, making it easier for me to bring those wanderers to a weakened state faster. However because I opted to go off colors it took me a while longer where I had to manually play. At first I was struggling clear the fight. There were many attempts with me timing out and the wanderers had around 1 and a half or less HP left. I didn't feel like leveling up [Myths] any higher than lv 40 cause I wanted to save leveling resources for Zayne lol... This is when I decided to use more core energy resources to build up my protocores. I used up 20000 core energy exp to level up a pearl delta (CRIT rate) to +12 and another 20000 core energy exp to level up a pearl beta (Expedited Energy Boost) to +12. I don't remember how much gold I spent on the top of my head, but it was still a decent amount invested. Yanno, even with the core upgrade I still died a lot and failed right after LOL. I don't remember which one of the two wanderer types that puts a ticking debuff on you to take damage, but they stack and your HP will DROP without realizing it. Pretty sure it's a reflective damage from the one that has a shield around it. So every time I was attacking it I was also kms... 🫠 Thanks InFold. So yeah, I would try to be a bit mindful about what you're attacking. If they have a shield up that's doing that you can usually dispel it with interrupts/charged attack or bringing them into a weakened state with resonance skill. I love Abysswalker's kit because it groups them up so nicely before Sharky comes and bites them.
Team 02
The suggestion to use God of the Tides companion for he second half and keeping his lunars the same came up in a conversation I had with a friend after a talking about my meme of a run for open orbit - stage 120 (you can read more about that here). After being stuck on this half for over 3 weeks you'll try anything with hopes that it'll actually work. I had zero expectations on how it was gonna turn out but fortunately for me it did well after a handful of failed attempts! Prior to my clear run I tapped a violet delta core (CRIT rate) from +9 to +12 that had HP bonus as one of it's substat. God of the Tides is an HP talent memory so I wanted to make the most of it by having that extra bit of stats to make up for missing 10% attribute bonuses. I was already focused on increasing my CRIT for this build, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to commit to upgrading this specific protocore. Upgrades are expensive y'all. The stats before weren't as ideal imo which is why I was hesitant before taking the gamble to roll HP bonus %. I know my clear vod made it look easy but what really happened is that I somehow managed to crit harder during this run compared to all my failed attempts earlier (╥ᆺ╥;) CRIT rate is king, especially if you plan on ignoring the Protofield Stellactrum by going off colors to try and brute force things.
The following are my final team set up and their stat attributes--

I have resurfaced from hanging out with cthulhu
nahh jk it's been a bad 3-4 days
but i'm gonna rant about what happened
I had an "argument" with someone and that "argument" caused a physical reaction (me crying obvi) that triggered a whole issue with my parents (esp my mom) which then triggered a behaviour most of you wouldn't approve of. I couldn't sleep until 10 am the next day and after i epke up, I spent the rest of the day just crying in bed, trying to calm myself down, but basically chilling in my depression hole while thinking or planning on how i can talk to the person i "argued" with bc i wanna talk like rational adults. but then the next day, i woke up to a hate message from the person i "argued" with and i was being blamed for something i had NOTHING to do nor do i have control of and then the argument continued while i was still having a concussion but this time another person dmed me and started a whole "you put yourself in a situation you're not supposed to be in". and also, i was put on an anon blast with accusatory statements but without the explanation of what happened or even my side of the story and that painted me as the WORST type of person/friend ever. and that led me to a whole new level of depression and thoughts a lot of you would be worried about like you'd call the cops on me or smth. thankfully i had enough sense to seek help from a friend and we vced and she kinda talked me down and talked some sense into me. and kinda made me feel understood and supported because i legit blamed myself for the whole issue, thinking that maybe those two people were right, but apparently my side was totally valid and understandable considering the circumstance. bc crazy part is, this whole "argument" was based on a pattern this person does that in the past had caused two communities to completely implode and revealed the other parties as crazy ass bitches bc of the drama they created. I'm just trying to hold onto the little amount of friends i have made bc i don't make a lot of friends bc it's hard for me.
initially i had such a bad breakdown and meltdown because of like 20000 stress piling on me with no support and my parents making everything worse. but when i woke up to the hate message and accusation and the my partner > you thing, it kinda truly broke my heart and broke the trust i made on friends or having friends. I spent years building that trust only for it to be broken down in one easy swing
in conclusion, i'm dealing with a sans!hwa situation (not completely ofc) and yes i'm (y/n) in this scenario and the two people i seek counsel from are sans!woosan
no bc how are you supposed to function after being told "that's my partner, ofc i'm gonna side with her" from your (maybe to them it's former at this point) best friend ??? and the other person just wanted me to drop it just because while i've been carrying my burden and pain while they happily pushed all the blame on me
truly i should've been worried when my ex started making sense
anyways that's the gist of the shit i'm dealing with. have y'all missed my socially awkward crazy ass self ???

Magix Ultra
Chapter 18
It all...it all happened so fast. One moment they were faced with a dark Zero possessed by an evil entity. The next, Chiara found herself at the mercy of said entity
She didn't know where or how the others were because Armadus pulled her into a pocket dimension of his own making. The darkness was so suffocating and made it her sick. Things became worse when Armadus suddenly began his assault on her.
Not only that, he had magic as well. Chiara could feel the dark and evil magic coming from him. It was like Nera's but worse. Much much much worse.
What's more, he kept calling her Argant. The name of the dragon of light. The being where her dragon's light originated from. For whatever reason,he seemed to harbour deep hatred towards the ancient dragon.
And for that reason,he set his sights on extinguishing the light within her. Chiara on the other hand tried her best to bring back Zero. Some of her offence included healing magic in hopes that her light would reach him and help him take his body back.
Armadus however figured out what she was trying to do. He taunted her saying how pitiful and foolish she was for not apprehending what happened. For a moment he ceased his attack. Tapping the black color lamp on his chest, he mockingly told her,
"That ultra is dead."
Is that why she couldn't sense or see even a spec of light in him? Zero was actually...no,he couldn't be...
Chiara saw red and charged at him with all her might. Her moves became uncoordinated and more aggressive. She didn't want to- she refused to believe it!
The anger and anguish she felt blinded her judgment and focus on the battle. She ended up getting blasted by Armadus and was sent tumbling down. A big hile tore into the darkness and showed a live feed of the new generation and UFZ in space.
Her tired eyes widen at the sight of them battling dozens of dark ghouls. When one was taken down, more would appear. It was never ending.
Suddenly, she felt the burning tip of a blade on her neck.
"Not so strong are you now,Argant. The lot of them will be joining him soon. You however, I'll show you how it feels to have your soul shattered to pieces!"Armadus pulled his black sword back and proceeded to thrust it towards her.
The blade was only inches away from her heart when something stopped it. Which was none other than Chiara. At the last second she caught the blade and gripped it tighly, ignoring how it was digging into her skin.
"I don't know what your problem is with Argant..." she started. A golden aura suddenly covered her entire being and made Armadus's black sword disintegrate into dark particles. She then lifted her gaze and glared at him as the pupils of her violet eyes were encircled in golden rings.
"But let me tell you, I'm CHIARA! Fairy of the Dragon's Light!" Her light shone brighter and brighter to the point of making Armadus stumble back due to the pain it was causing him. Chiara's saber shot out from her wrist brace and pulsed with strong energy. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. For a second,everything around her went quiet before she heard one slow heart beat.
Her eyes immediately shot open and in an instant, she appeared right infront of Armadus whose sword manifested in his hand an blocked the fairy's blow. Their swords clashed as Chiara advanced forward while the dark ultra kept retreating back.
"I know he's still there. And until he regains the strength to beat you up, I'll be doing it for him!" Chiara declared earnestly.
"The ultra is no more and that is the truth. The hope you have for him is truly pathetic!" Armadus spat back but it didn't hinder her in any way. In fact, it pushed her resolve even more.
"It's still....20000 years too early for you to be calling people pathetic! Even more so when you need to steal someone else's body to get around."
Just as her light grew brighter, she caught sight of a small but noticeable spec of light in his darkened color lamp. That light-!
In her moment of distraction, Armadus took the chance and pierced her left shoulder with his sword. He fully expected her to fall, to slowly bleed out on the ground while he inflicted as much pain as he could. However, Chiara stood her ground,looked him right in the eyes and smirked. Even with blood dripping from her mouth,she was still smirking!
He realized it too late when she firmly grasp his- Zero's - color lamp. The spec of light that she saw...it was Zero, she just knew it. So before Armadus noticed it too, Chiara channelled in as much of her light as fast as she could.
The dark entity however refused to let go. He kept on fighting with the blue and red ultra's spirit that grew stronger as well as Chiara's light. The black sword that was still embedded in her shoulder was pushed in deeper while he was struggling against the overwhelming power
The sharp blade combined with its evil energy, hurt. The pain was excruciating. But as the saying goes, no pain no gain, right?
Chiara tearfully called out to him,
"Please come back to us, Ultraman Zero!"
Armadus finally managed to push her off but it was too late by then. Light overflowed him to the point where he knew he couldn't stay in that body for long. Chiara's final plea seemed to work. Cause not a second later, his entire body burst with light.
"This-this isn't over! I will have my revenge!-" those were the dark entity's last words before he was forcefully expelled from Zero's body. The moment he was out, the dark void around them collapsed and now they were on a giant meteor.
Zero's form changed from darkness to his gold and silver shinning form. Then back to his base form after the light disappeared. Seeing this, Chiara felt relief wash over that numb her pain for a split second.
When Armadus pushed her off, she landed on her back. The blade that was still sticking out her shoulder lodged into the ground making her unable to get up. After the sword disappeared with Armadus, she still couldn't get up due to her energy being rapidly depleted and the pain she felt.
All of a sudden, her shoulder stung. Thesword may be gone but her wound was still there.
Instead of light she was now bleeding black blood. Her wound was pulsing and from it, she could feel something spread. It was akin to venom (don't ask how she knows that).
The next thing she knew, she heard Zero's voice calling out to her worriedly.
"Chiara! Hey! Chiara!" He yelled as he ran over to her.
A hand was pressed over her wound while she kept coughing up black blood. Her skin was turning deadly pale contrary to her snow white complexion. She was slightly trembling from the immense pain coursing through her.
If only he could use his Aegis to get her to Mother of Ultra. Or his shinning to reverse time. But kicking out Armadus took a lot out of both him and Chiara. His colour lamp beeped rapidly when he tried to use the power of shinning to save the fairy in his arms.
"Zero...if you do...that then-"
"Forget about me and think about yourself for once!"
Chiara momentarily went silent before smiling gently. Her violet eyes showed calmness and reassurance as she gazed up at him. There were so many things she wanted to tell him. But her current condition didn't let her.
"Don't worry, I just... I just need to take...a short nap...I'll be all better by then..."
And with that, her eyes closed and everything became dark and soundless.

OKAY SO first of all I wanna just add as a disclaimer that I still haven't finished reading the book so I might get some things wrong here BUT ANYWAYS
Tintin and Conseil are sooo similar, like for starters they're both described as being young, like Prof Aronnax calls Conseil a boy repeatedly then reveals he's actually 30 years old is like peak Tintin constantly being mistaken for being younger than he is, then there's the fact that they're both calm under pressure and loyal to a fault which leads to putting themselves in dangerous situations for the people they care about. Like Conseil jumping into the water after Aronnax falls overboard instead of, idk, getting help?? is something that Tintin would absolutely do for the people he cares about (did he not scale the Himalayas on a hunch I mean????)
Also both of them having strong theoretical knowledge but somewhat less practical knowledge?? Conseil knows all the classifications for fish and their characteristics but can't recognize a single fish he sees, while Tintin swears up and down that you can live off sea water based on some studies??
Which then brings me to Captain Haddock and Ned Land sharing characteristics cuz like they both know a lot about the sea because both have jobs that depend on it, and they're both really skilled at what they do, but they're also impulsive (Ned wanting to fight his way off the Nautilus despite being in the middle of the ocean with nowhere to go vs Haddock trying to fight his way out of becoming a human sacrifice in prisoners of the sun for example) and don't like being trapped (there are a lot of similarities between a submarine and a rocket)
And their practical knowledge contrasts with Conseil/Tintin's theoretical knowledge without being presented as lesser. Ned might not be able to classify fish but he recognizes them and knows which are edible, while Haddock knows better than to drink sea water as sustenance when they're stranded at sea because he actually has some common sense
More importantly, despite these differences, they both get along!! Conseil and Ned refer to each other as "friend" while Tintin calls Haddock his friend like a day after having met him!
Of course this leaves Prof Calculus in the role of Aronnax which is absolutely hilarious and I think would definitely make 20000 leagues under the sea a hell of a lot funnier than it is
Tumblr media
If this isn't something Captain Haddock would say...

The Undertale Kickstarter Updates: Stuff I Found
(SURGEON’S GENERAL WARNING: Long and full of images with ALT text)
(SURGEON’S SECOND WARNING: Also lots of buff dogs. You have been warned.)
So. The Undertale Kickstarter. When you could pay Toby $32 for the Undertale soundtrack but only Papyrus’ Cool Song. Or $1000 for a canon fantroll. Anywho, it had 39 Kickstarter updates, so I thought I’d put some funny stuff I found here.
Ready?
I’m not.
Section 1: Chronological Funnies
A bunch of funnies in chronological order.
Tumblr media
(I would’ve included the buff Flowey image by itself here but Tumblr forbid it)
A thing from the 200% post (Update #2, posted on June 24th, 2013):
Tumblr media
Now a thing from Update #3 (Posted on June 25th, 2013):
Tumblr media
How about something from Update #4 posted on June 26th, 2013?
Tumblr media
Update 5… on June 27th, 2013… I have no words (except for in the ALT text)
Tumblr media
According to the next update, Toby Fox was in China while Undertale was still in development! How interesting!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Our next image is from Update #8, posted on (drumroll) July 10th, 2013!!!!!!
Tumblr media
Wow, that image description took a lot out of me. Anywho, time for Update #9, posted on July 16th, 2013!
Tumblr media
Yes, that’s the somewhat infamous “deltarune reference” line.
Nothin’ funny in #10, so we’re skipping ahead to Update #11, having been posted on July 23rd, 2013.
Tumblr media
Anywho, now it’s about time for something from Update #18, which was posted on May 3rd, 2014 (Whoah timeskip! The reason will become apparent later).
Tumblr media
Alrig- UNDYNE?!?!?!?!?!
Tumblr media
Oh yeah some other stuff from Update #19 as well:
Tumblr media
For those curious, “Song.” seems to be either an early version or variation of “Quiet Water” and “Other song.” is “Spooktune”.
Next update! Alphys is here too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Update #21!? Uploaded on October 30th, 2014!?!? Impossible!!!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The song above’s final name is “Can You Really Call This A Hotel I Didn't Receive A Mint On My Pillow”.
What Update number? You guessed it! #22! Wait… it was uploaded on December 18th, 2014!? Unacceptable!
Tumblr media
Update #24. Posted February 22nd, 2015.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bork
Tumblr media Tumblr media
GET THAT DOG OUTTA HERE!!!! I’M MAKING A POST AROUND HERE!!!!!
Tumblr media
Now that small, white dog’s outta my office… here’s a thing from Update #28 that was uploaded on June 30th, 2015 (and is the reason I’m a 99% true Undertale fan).
Tumblr media
Update #29, posted on July 29th, 2015. The worst one.
Tumblr media

Still can’t believe I did section one (1) in only 30 images. Anywho-
Section 2: What I Couldn’t See
Basically, I didn’t know about the Kickstarter in 2013, and thus couldn’t, and didn’t, back it.
Unfortunately, some posts are backer EXCLUSIVE (rude >:() and I cannot see them.
This section is literally just a list of the backer exclusive posts.

Update #36: Mini Update On The Stretch Goals
Update #37: another minor update
Update #38: Rewards being sent out imminently!!
Update #39: If you didn't get contacted about your physical rewards
I assume all of these either have info that would not pertain to non-backers at ALL or have secret rewards you get for paying money.
Either way, #13 - #16 being backer-only should help explain the timeskip earlier.

RADIO ROMANCE 🎧 - PARK SUNGHOON
Tumblr media
synopsis: you would be lying if you said you didn't feel anything for your best friend sunghoon. he's well-spoken, amazing with kids, knows how to figure skate, and good at literally everything.. well, except maybe realizing that you have feelings for him. maybe that's why he can only sit there and turn red when an anonymous voice shows him affections via the campus radio's confession hotline.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Happy birthday, Sunghoon!”
Sunghoon’s mouth is in the shape of an ‘O’ when he realizes the meaning of Heeseung’s present to him. “Oh, wow,” he says in shock. He quickly recovers by firing another comment with a flirtatious lilt in his voice, “All for me?”
You straight up punch the birthday boy in the shoulder.
You see, in an attempt to help you two continue your path of reconciliation, Heeseung had asked you to help deliver his gift to Sunghoon. (Bless people with well paying internships at illustrious companies.. Or as you like to put it: the kind hearted rich.)
Heeseung’s present is a jute gift basket filled with an assortment of expensive looking items. A pair of wireless noise cancelling headphones (is this what it's like being an adult?), a few—FEW?—20000 to 50000 won gift cards to Sunghoon’s favorite places, a pack of socks, and best of all: you as the delivery boy. In your opinion, the best part of the gift would have to be the socks. You can never have too many, given that a drying machine will somehow always eat every pair you own.
“Don’t say it like that, ugh, you make it sound corny and cheap.”
“God damn, what was that for?” He rubs the point of infliction. With one sassy finger in the air, Sunghoon continues what seems to be the start of a monologue, “For your information, I value your time and effort. You are not a ‘corny and cheap' present. Thank you, YN, for taking time out of your precious day to deliver Heeseung’s present to me.”
“Sunghoon. You know me, I just have to be your knight in shining armor,” you say as you gesture to the spot he’s rubbing. “I’m referring to the punch by the way. Not the gift. I have another speech for that.”
Sunghoon chuckles. He rifles through the gift basket once more, before shifting his attention to you. He smiles. “I appreciate it. Genuinely. You, the gift, everything.”
You shake your head, “Don’t mention it. Unless you wanna pay me for my subway fare.”
You can tell he took your words seriously with the way he immediately goes to reach for his wallet (? you assume) in his back pocket. You reach out to halt his actions, leaving him in an awkward pose. He’s still mid grab.
“It was a joke. A joke, Park Sunghoon, a JO-KE. Besides, you would owe me a lot more than a new T-money card if I was going to start charging you for minor things.”
“But–”
“No buts. It’s okay. I’m your best friend, that’s all you have to pay me for.”
The boy in front of you tilts his head, “I don’t think that’s how it goes?” Sunghoon responds incredulously. “Are you saying I should pay you for being my friend?”
You nod. “It’s a bit delayed, I’d say.. But it’s better now than never!” (Sunghoon’s face then contorts into a look of disgust. His brows are furrowed, his eyes are squinted, his mouth is slightly agape as if he’s cringing, but also not.. He just looks dumb.)
You break out into a fit of laughter at that, unable to continue the charade. “Ah, happy birthday, Sunghoon. Can I come in now? I’ll present you with your actual gift if I'm allowed in.”
It just now registers in his head that you’ve been standing in his door frame instead of in the comfort of his apartment.
“Oh, shit, I’m sorry. I’ve been all over the place for real. Yeah, yeah, come on in, Miss Vampire,” Sunghoon teases with a curtsy. He gestures for you to sit down at the table as he kicks your house slippers towards the seat.
You nearly knock him out of the way as you step into his quaint apartment. It’s a 140 square meter studio with almost everything he needs. Every time you visit, you can’t forget to admire the decorations that litter his walls. Medallions from his Senior skater years, photos of you, photos with the guys, Yeji, his parents, the Parks with Gaeul and without.. The walls are filled with memories that scream Sunghoon.
“Yes, yes, I’m glad you remembered to formally let me come in. Anyways, here’s your gift!” You finally show him your presents. Walking him through the gift, you start to explain each detail. With a big breath, you begin. “Bear with me, okay? Essentially.. This rectangle thing is actually a picture frame! I collaged a bunch of my favorite memories with you into one and got it framed. I even had Sunoo help me decorate. He told me that he ‘had to decorate his picture like it was a rare Poca,’ which is why there are so many stickers surrounding the selfie we took with him."
He nods, studying the picture frame. His fingers brush against the glass, lingering on the photos where it's just the two of you. You mentally capture this and store it in your heart.
The next gift.. “Oh, oh, open that next! I think you’ll love this.”
He picks up the square box you were pointing to. With a serious gaze, Sunghoon waits until you make eye contact to speak. “I’m always going to love anything you give me, YN, you know that. As long as it's from you. Because you're the girl that I love.. To admire! Thanks for being here for me."
You nearly drop dead at the delivery of his words. Hearing those words from him tugs at your heart strings, but you refuse to give in. Not when you know that it doesn’t hold the same meaning to him as it does to you. Plus, years of friendship has told you that an 'I Love You' coming from the boy will never be more than platonic. “Alright, I trust you,” you say with a quiver in your voice. “But quickly! Open it up, I’m excited to see your reaction.”
There’s a delicate ribbon on the box that he daintily unwraps. You suck in a breath as he takes the top off, revealing a silver bracelet. It’s simple, but in your opinion, it's perfectly Sunghoon. It has a thick bar as the centerpiece, where you had the date you two met engraved on it along with your initials. It certainly doesn’t scream “platonic birthday present!!” but your intentions were for him to catch on anyways.
“It’s not much compared to what the guys probably got you, sorry. I was struggling to budget your present along with my living expenses,” you reveal anxiously. “Hope you like it anyways, Hoon.”
“Holy shit,” Sunghoon gasps. He looks between you and the box. “Of course I li–love it, YN, this is crazy. What the hell? Thank you so much.” He sets the box down on his coffee table and extends his arms out to hug you.
You graciously waddle to him, and enter the warmth of a bearlike hug. This, you decide, is what home feels like. Sunghoon. Over a decade of friendship feels like home and comfort. There’s a comment about the cost of the gift that lingers on your tongue, but you settle for keeping the comfortable silence instead. Besides, it was his mother who taught you that talking about the cost of a gift was incorrect anyways.
Once you detach, you decide to reveal the most sentimental part of the present. A wrapped picture frame. “Finally, this last gift is definitely the best by far. I just had to immortalize my favorite photo of you and Gaeul!”
He tears the paper off the frame with quick fingers. You watch with evil delight as Sunghoon’s smile falls. He turns to you dramatically. “You did fucking not.”
You grin evilly, knowing damn well what you did wrong. “What did I do wrong, hm?”

ROS ideas
Back when I answered this ask about ROS, one person (hi @timberllania !) expressed interest in seeing my list, so at long last here it is.
I thought I’d link to some of the ROS lists from which I’ve drawn heavily and only spell out the scenarios that I’m pretty sure are my own additions* here. That way anyone who’s already got a list of their own doesn’t have to sift through all the borrowed ideas to find the handful of new ones.
*Note that I put my ROS list together some time ago; I’m fairly sure I came up with the scenarios listed below, but it’s possible I may be misremembering where I got some of them. If you recognize one of them from someone else’s list, feel free to let me know. Not trying to take credit for other simmers’ ideas. :)
Lists I’ve borrowed from: Eien_Herrison OliveSpecter Bsimth - TS4 list Retromaisie Kayleigh-83
My ideas:
(Note: If you add any of these to your ROS file, be sure to add a number in brackets -- [1], [2], etc. -- at the end of each one to determine how likely it is to be rolled. The higher the number the more likely it is.)
MINOR Reigniting the Spark: Take your married sims on a date night every night of the round. The Smell of Old Books: Have your sim visit the library. Clueless: Your sim attempts to befriend and make over the unpopular sim of their choice. Cool Parent: Your sim attempts to befriend d2 of their child's friends over the course of the round. Just Being Neighborly: If not already friends with the immediate neighbors, meet up and attempt to befriend them within the round. Forever Alone: Have d3 terrible dates. I Have a Headache: Your sim may not woohoo at all this round. Bar Fight: Pick a fight in a bar. Pay 600 simoleons in damages no matter what. If you win, gain a body skill point. If you lose, lose a body skill point. I'm In a Band: Form a band (or go solo). You don't have to be good or even practice your instruments, but you do have to perform publicly at least once a round for 3 rounds. Yoga Life: Have your sim do yoga for at least one hour a day each day of the round. All Work and No Play: For the next round, in addition to working their normal job, your sim must spend an additional 3 hours each day working. (Could include running or crafting items for a business, giving financial advice, or studying skills needed for promotion.) Playing Matchmaker: Your sim just knows these two would be perfect together. Influence two of your sims’ friends or acquaintances to interact at least 5 times, including at least 1 romantic interaction.
MAJOR Long Live Your Sim: Your sim enrolled in a medical trial that turned out to be a great success. Add 5 days to their current lifespan. Positive Career Pivot: Your sim gets an offer they can't refuse. Quit their current job and immediately employ them somewhere else. Their new job must pay at least 10 percent more than their old job. Bachelor/ette Pad: Move your eligible sim and d3 other single sims into a house together. They must live together for at least 2 rounds before any of them can get married and/or move out. A Haunting Air: Your sim moves into a house that turns out to be haunted by a number of angry spirits. They must live there for at least 2 rounds before they're allowed to move out. Distant Relative: A relative your sim never knew existed shows up and asks for help. Move in a new CAS sim. They must live with your sim for at least 2 rounds before they are 'on their feet' and may be moved out. Move Back Home: Your adult sim (and any other members of their household) must move back in with their elderly parents. Wedding of the Century: Your sim has dreamed of this day forever. Don't let them down. Spend at least 20000 simoleons setting up the perfect wedding (decor, dress, catering, etc). Go into debt if necessary. World Traveler: For the next 2 rounds, your sim is traveling the world. Move them into a lot on their own and don't allow them to interact with anyone in the neighborhood. You may send them to vacation destinations during this time. Extravagant Purchase: Your sim is having a quarter/mid/late-life crisis. Spend at least 20 percent of your household's simoleons on something extravagant--a car, a business, etc. If they're extremely rich, they can donate the appropriate amount to the town. Sickos: Your sim’s entire household comes down with the flu. Homewrecker: Your single sim has set their sights on a married sim. Have them build up their platonic relationship over the next round, and then flirt (or try a more dramatic interaction) 3 times. Lawsuit: One of your sims is fed up with a neighbor or local business and has decided to sue. Both parties have to pay a lawyer 3000 simoleons. You decide whether the lawsuit turns out favorably for your sim or not.
TOWN** Nothing Major: Life goes on as normal. Town Spirit: Some town-wide festivities are in order. Spend d50x100 simoleons from the town funds to set up the town square/other public place for a party. Theme the party as desired, and then call as many town citizens to attend as possible. Town Festival: Like Town Spirit, but bigger. Set up an event with food, activities, and competitions. The winner of the big competition gets a cash prize of d5x500 simoleons. Scandal: The mayor is caught in a scandal. Roll d2 for outcome. If 1, mayor apologizes and is forgiven. If 2, mayor is forced to resign and an interim mayor is appointed to fill in until the next election. Referendum: Your sims have an issue they want to vote on. Pick an issue and have some sims campaign for and some campaign against it for the next round. Hold a vote at the end of the round. Singles Mixer: The town holds a mixer for its single residents. Set up a community lot (such as the town hall or a park) for the event, summon as many single sims as possible, and let them interact autonomously for 5 hours. The Greatest Idea: Using town funds, establish a new public park (any kind) for your community's enjoyment. Fire: A fire ravages one of the town-owned lots. It must be closed until it can be rebuilt (it does not have to be bulldozed) with town funds. No services associated with it may go on in the meantime. Change In the Wind: Your town's political views are changing. At the next election, vote in someone new with a different ideology than the current Mayor. Protest: Some sims aren't satisfied with the status quo. Hold a protest in front of the town hall.
**I think this category is a new idea of mine--these are events that affect the entire town in some way rather than being focused on a single sim or household; as you can see, a lot of them are politics-related. Unlike minor and major events, which I roll once for each household at the start of a new round, I roll for the town event only once per round. (PS--if anyone likes this idea and has more ideas for town events, please share them with me! I would love to add more variety to this category.)

GENSHIN 3.2 ARCHON QUEST SPOILERS
I cannot stop thinking and rewatching the gnosis scene, I've hyper analyzed it like 20000 times its insane.
I realized the symbolism in the cord (?) ripping apart just as the gnosis (his mothers) was taken, and how it reminded me of how children are physically separated from their mothers with the cutting of an umbilical cord. I'm not sure if Hoyo was intending this or it was an accident that worked out really well.
Just like how the umbilical cord is what finally separates a baby from its mother, almost a ritual which acknowledges that the child is it's own person, him being separated from that piece of his mother is also representing how he's now a separate individual from his mother.
It's after this moment that he's going to finally be his own person, using his own power, with his own goals. {You could say 'becoming a god' was a goal of his but I feel like he was heavily influenced by others to have this goal (just my interpretation)}
I can't wait for next version, when he receives his own vision and finally understands that he doesn't need to be a copy of Ei in order to be happy, but rather he can be his own person, with his own ideals and living a life that he wants, not a life he feels he has to have.
This was his rebirth.
And I also really hope Nahida positively influences him, especially because they've been through similar circumstances of betrayal, yet had drastically different outlooks.
It would be really nice seeing her be a 'mentor' of sorts to him and helping him heal and work through his issues, because I feel like that's what he deserves.
Also I know that people are upset that he doesn't have an electro vision, but honestly I feel like him NOT having it fits a LOT more with his story. Him having an electro vision would only further the notion that he is just a copy of Ei. Him having an anemo vision also fits because in a sense he's finally freed from his mothers shadow.
Possible theory of him recieving his vision (because i really hope we witness it) is when he finally understands that he doesn't need to be like Ei to live a fulfilling and worthwhile life. Or some similar realization.
On another note Webttore died and I'm very distraught about it.

HOW TO ACE AN INTERVIEW?
“You get an interview through connections or maybe your resume. You get a job through body language and a few compelling stories.” – Nick Morgan
Interviews are all about how you present yourself along with the knowledge that you possess. It’s about proper alignment of the goals of a company/organization with your personal goals. Hence, it’s important to be self-aware and to know the details of the job description, as well as the company.
Following are some factors that one should be kept in mind before going for an interview:
Know the difference between Resume, Biodata, and CV
A resume is a summary of one's education, skills, and employment when applying for a new job. Suited when experienced people apply for specific positions where certain specific skills are more important than education.
A C.V. lists out every skill, all the jobs and positions held, degrees, professional affiliations the applicant has acquired, and in chronological order. Suited for fresh graduates or people looking for a career change.
In biodata, the focus is on personal particulars like date of birth, gender, religion, race, nationality, residence, and marital status. Suited for government jobs, or research grants.
Do your homework
Company Research is essential before an interview. It shows the company that you care and are interested in the opportunity. It comprises of basic industry knowledge, company history and competitors, vision and mission statement, important products and services offered, company culture, and social websites.
Know yourself
It’s important to be self-aware as you should know your strengths, weaknesses, and potential. You’d always be required to introduce yourself in an interview so make sure that you know exactly what to say and always be ready for explanations on your hobbies and interests.
Dress to impress
First impressions are the last impressions. Make sure you’re smartly dressed. Don’t put on a lot of make-up and don’t wear tacky clothes. Be your confident self, always. Authenticity stands out.
Body Language and posture
Always sit straight and never use the backrest. Make sure that you are leaning forward as that’s an indicator of being interested. Never keep your hands and legs crossed. Do not fidget and always maintain space.
Below are some frequently asked questions along with answers:

- As per the market standards. (Never disclose the amount in the first go, let the interviewer disclose it)
- If the interviewer pursues then give your expectations in a range (20000-25000)
Tell us about your project?
Purpose:
- To understand the project and check your knowledge about the project
How to answer:
You give a two-line description of the work you did in the internship. This part has to be specific
Then you highlight what you learned in the internship followed by how you contributed to the company during the period.

- Assessing social life and different spectrum of your personality
- Helps determine if a match culturally for the organization
How to answer:
-          Do keep it semi-professional, though, saying you like to have a few beers at the local hot spot on Saturday night is fine. Telling them that Monday is usually a rough day for you because you’re always hungover is not.
-         Focus on social life
-         Focus on hobbies
If you were an animal, which one would you want to be?
Purpose:
- See how you think on your feet
- No right or wrong answer
- Check- the presence of mind
How to answer:
- The animal
-Why the animal
- How strength similar
- Repeat the point
So these were a few ways that can help ace an interview. All the best!

for that "pick any passage" ask meme, i wanna know abt this one from "angels on the moon":
Tumblr media
OHOHOHO THIS BIT
So this was a really important bit to me that I had to get right, so I rewrote Seichou's dialogue like 20000 times, and spent like 30 mins trying to figure out which sibling was the one to drag who away.
In the end, I decided Masako was the one to drag Hideo away, bc her upbringing as a socialite made her a lot more selfish. She knew how to leave others behind while Hideo, who grew up in Suribachi, always wanted to help and to save others. To me, it made sense that she would be the one to put her head before her heart in this situation.
The colours of Seichou's irises is also significant here. His eyes slightly link to his emotions usually, and in this case, midnight blue was used to symbolise sadness and a final goodbye, while the black is for finality and mourning bc he knows what's going to happen next.
I think I've told you abt the names thing before, but him calling them their given names in a mission, while working, is meant to show familiarity and that he wants them to see him as their dad in that moment rather than their boss. But yeah, overall this moment was pretty hard to write, actually, and I went over it a lot before I was happy with it, but WAUGH it turned out so good.

Hello librarian!!! You are one of the beet people on this site, and you are so helpful! I was wondering if you have any short, complete fic recommendations? Maybe within the 1000-20000 word range? Even if you don't answer my ask (which you dont have to, please dont feel pressured to) just know you are an amazing human being!
Um, no I think YOU are one of the best people and an amazing human being! (*hides my face in my hands because I don’t know how to respond to all of this sweetness!*)
Your holds have arrived! Here are several fics between 1,000-20,000 words! I hope you enjoy them!
Short Fics
Through the Window, Clear Skies (1,415 words) by @tackytigerfic
What would happen if Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy moved in together, too soon after they started kissing and then fucking and not hating each other anymore?
Etched, Curled, Stationed (1,769 words) by @tepre
The day Draco Malfoy turned 21 was the day that 12 Grimmauld Place had decided, with all the grand and pointed fanfare that a house could manage, that it was him that was its rightful owner.
Like Clockwork (3,884 words) by Nympha_Alba
Harry has always loved the Weasley clock that shows the whereabouts of all the family members, and decides to make one for his own family. Soon he runs a small but flourishing business making family clocks. When Draco Malfoy orders a clock with only two hands – one for Scorpius and one for Narcissa – Harry is touched by the loneliness of Draco's life. Memories begin to stir, and Harry makes an addition of his own…
Hourglass Heart (5,257 words) by @bixgirl1
It only happened once — depending on how Harry counted.
Sunscreen (5,987 words) by @kittycargo
"I want someone to remind me to wear sunscreen and take my vitamins when it slips my mind..." -Ira Wolf
Divination For Dickheads (6,914 words) by orphan_account
It doesn't actually turn out to be the worst birthday present he's ever been given.
Holding Back the Fire (9,381 words) by @goldentruth813
Harry’s always hated praise, so he doesn’t understand why the idea of it coming from Draco makes him want it in ways he’s never wanted anything before.
Pharynx-Larynx-Oesophagus-Trachea (11,400 words) by @firethesound
Harry's idea for helping Draco study is the most brilliant thing he's ever come up with, and Draco discovers that studying can be fun when one has the right study partner.
what the body wants is coolness (13,428 words) by @lastontheboat
Draco and Harry have been seeing each other for months, and Harry decides the best way to tell their friends is to bring Draco to a group beach outing. Draco's given up enumerating all the ways this plan could go wrong.
Let him lead me to the banquet (16,066 words) by @harryromper
The worst part is Harry’s got no idea why Malfoy keeps sending him invites. He’s never replied to a single one. And if the whole dinner is as exclusive and sought-after as the Prophet keeps breathlessly reporting, then presumably the only reason Malfoy wants him there is in his capacity as the Chosen One. So, really, he can fuck right off. Harry doesn’t care about Draco Malfoy’s redemption tour. And he’s certainly not going to help him with it.
A Different Kind of Meaning (17,048 words) by @p1013
The ceiling doesn't hold any answers, but there are cobwebs scattered across the corners with shadows tangled in their threads. The rug against his back is rough and scratchy, threadbare and devoid of colours other than various shades of brown. Harry takes it all in, absorbs the dingy and depressed state of his home. There's a pointed moment of decision, a note about to be played, a silence about to end, and then he rolls to his feet and sets to cleaning. It's the first constructive thing he's done in years.
As always, if you find a fic you enjoy, please remember to leave the author a kudos or a comment!

Hey what are your favourite + least fav x men characters and why im curious i love seeing ur thoughts (also, to make it easier hopefully???, i mean specifically X-Men you do not need to include like the 100+ teams connected to them like new mutants or Excalibur etc)
tbh these are just from. everywhere. a lot of my favs are xforce and sub teams. just mutants in general really
least favs
xavier. hes just a dick like. objectively. hes got no business mentoring young kids with the way he went about treating young scott and young jean. also mr i would never invade someone's thoughts without there permission. and then he DID
beast. just kinda boring like. we get it youre smart and patronizing and blue and furry, what else is there. kurt is the only blue man
havok. i dont like. hate him. i just think he should be made fun of more. mr all lives matter avengers stan. bully him more
deadpool because i hate that some people think he’s a mutant n it irritates me idk
brian braddock sorry betsy ur brother is dull as all fuck. he barely has anything to do w mutants as a whole and it’s like why do we even claim him as one when he ran around calling himself captain britain for so long like. cringe, sir braddock
favs:
storm. like objectively i think if anyone doesnt favour ororo in some kind of way then theyre insane. she has a lot of wonder woman isms in that a lot of people see her as this. ethereal above reproach goddess but shes ironically a very human character. like just the little facts that shes into botany and is claustrophobic etc. and the fact that everyone loves her is because shes a good person, not because she’s beautiful or powerful or perfect in anyway. like she’s loved because she’s earned it and she deserves it. she’s a good friend and a GREAT leader without needing to physically be in charge. shes very open and loving and loyal but is also someone u really only get one chance with?? she has a much smaller circle of incredibly close friends than people would think. idk i love that shes allowed to be both kind and flawed AND hugely powerful
domino. ive gone on about how i love neena a lot before so i wont bore u but she is. genuinely one of my favourite characters of all time from anywhere. she has a persona that she puts up but there's so much in her backstory that no one would expect if theyd only read recent domino stuff. like she really shines in her solos more than anywhere else i cant stress that enough
magneto. if i had to like. objectively pick a best character ever i think it would be magneto. i think superhero comics are best when they SAY something. like not to be all We Live In a Society but if youre not making some kind of commentary on the real world with your good vs evil media concept then what are you doing. and we all know the mutant metaphor doesnt hold up like. ever. but its as close as it gets with magneto because his fictional mutanthood is linked w his real jewishness and its never like. a replacement or one or the other. and one fuels his activism in the other? idk im not sure how to phrase it but i think he embodies what being a MUTANT is about, in universe, not what being an xmen is about. hes so REGAL and smart and so powerful just in the way he carries himself, even when he was depowered. they simply do not make characters like magneto other than magneto. and YES the dilfery of it all
kwannon. i love where her story is going and how much attention theyre giving her since the body divorce. just that shes being allowed to be bitter and resentful of betsy about having years of her life stolen. her learning how to be her own self again and what's her own. also i like betsy just fine but my first intro to ~~~psylocke was the betsy/kwannon mash up and like. for ME. with what i like in characters??? pretty much all of what i liked was kwannon's. the assassin stuff, the sword stuff, her brutality and harder attitude. like u all know my taste in female characters and shes IT. and theres a lot of potential in exploring her backstory
wolverine. unfortunately. i love a little weasel man. He Is My Dad. i think he has such a rich variation of relationships with other people whether it be as a rivalry, romance, friendship, parent etc etc. this bitch contains multitudes!!! i think he as a character has so much bought to him by the other characters around him. likes YES he is a grmupy old man who probably hasnt showered today but hes a very loving person despite everything
angel. this might seem like a wild pick for me but. the concept of a rich pretty boy with seemingly everything going for him being turned into this monstrous apocalyptic razor bird with varying self control is SO GOOD TO ME IDK IDK. like hes very gentle and atypical for a male character in a lot of ways and i enjoy that a lot??? just the contrast of it all. i think there should be more horrific pretty boys
monet. forever obsessed wither attitude and her confidence even when so much of her story is wrapped up in people stealing her identity and the betrayal in that and being controlled by others physically w the penance stuff like. shes been through all of that and is STILL probably one of the most sure of themselves characters out there. her yes i AM the shit actually, better than you attitude, not afraid to be a bitch superiority. ladies i think we should all be more like monet as a rule. her powers just being that shes pretty much better than everyone at everything. also shes just funny as fuck
im allowed to say this because shes in x books on the regular now but selene. i think shes so fuckin cool and maybe this is the wannabe goth death witch from my teenage years possessing my body right now but i LOVE an insanely powerful woman. shes like 20000 years old, shes physically incapable of dying, shes the FIRST mutant and has a very rich backstory. shes a great villain but i think now shes more vaguely xmen aligned with the krakoa situation theres huge amounts of potential with her to be on heroic teams as the untrustworthy but begrudgingly helps out kind of addition. with everyone being like. remember that time you resurrected half of us as zombies and traumatised us all for life and she’s just like. god don’t you people ever move on
