#;haha i'm so lazy with starters like these

[unprocione]

hey so if graphics matter to u in roleplay formatting, you gotta let me know bc I don't have any readily available for my replies / starters right now so urs will take a little longer. it's an artistic preference (I like em too) n there's nothing wrong w it but you just gotta let me know if I'm mutuals with u rn because I'm big lazy atm n don't wanna make new ones until the mood strikes me haha

[volo-thereforeiam]

I know I'm very slow at completing this game but please bear with me for I am busy.

I don't know what I was expecting haha. I'm not disappointed but I expected more, if you know what I mean. I don't want it to be predictable. I was promised that the story gets even better though, so I'm really looking forward to it.

I really love my starter but I forget to take a screenshot and now I'm too lazy to do so. Also, each route has more Pokemon options than routes in canon Pokemon games. I can try out a lot of party combinations even though I'm still early-ish in the game (maybe, idk how long the gameplay is). I really love the delta mons! I have a feeling not all of them are better than their non-delta variation but they're still a fun concept.

Nitpick warning : I'm not a fan of how this game throws in lore for the sole purpose to prove it's all dark and edgy. Canon Pokemon games also dump lots of lore, but they usually spark contemplation about the Pokemon universe, encouraging fans to delve deeper with theories, etc., or they serve a clear storytelling purpose. But this game? I'm just like, what do I do with all this random info they're throwing at me?

Also, also. The lack of string connecting all the cults so far give me major "distraction" vibe. You know the trope. Main villain(s) making/make use of existing chaos as a diversion. Or I'm talking out of my ass because frankly I'm not too far into the game yet. Don't spoil if you know the story though.

[bambi-lesbian-posts]

I just saw your ask in my ask box, tumblr didn't notify or anything so I didn't see it until now 😭 but here are some questions for you, as promised!

6, 12, 19, 29, 32, and 38

Oh good! I'm glad you got it! I'll try not to stall too much and give you my answers, haha

6. Why did you do that?

Hmm. Good question.. I guess I'll explain why I sent the asks? Or rather, why I was trying so hard to get this game going with everyone who reblogged, and as many mutuals as possible lol. I guess the long and short of it is that I like learning about people, and talking about myself in turn. I also feel like I don't get much interaction, or connection, with people on here as much as I'd like, so I thought I'd actually fight to make that change. It's been a very lovely experience so far, so expect to see me in your inbox again sometime

12. What kind of day is it?

Today is.. a slow, lazy kind of day. It's also a very tired, kind of sad day. I'm not really sure why, maybe it's the weather.

19. Imagine we're at a sleepover, would you paint my nails?

Yes, absolutely. In fact, there's a good chance that I'd be begging you to let me paint your nails. It was, and is, one of my favorite passtimes with my sisters and close friends. I spent a lot of time in my youth practicing fancy designs, and watching tutorials. I even learned how to do acrylics, for my older sister. They're definitely not perfect, but they're good enough for her to show off, and me to be proud of. I would LOVE to paint your nails at a sleepover

29. How do you like your shower water?

Hmm. Definitely very warm, with a good amount of pressure. More like a heavy rain, rather than a pressure washer, if that makes sense. But I'm pale and have sensitive nerves in my back so I can't go too hot, either, so it's just enough to make steam really.

32. Do you have a favorite towel?

Yes, definitely. It's an old towel, so it's not the prettiest thing, but it's extra big and just fluffy enough. Its big and teal-colored, but its got a bleach spot or two since its been around for forever. The others don't compare at all

38. A soap bar that smells good?

I actually don't use soap bars, I tend to use shower gel and things of that kind! But I'll try to explain how my favorite one smells. It's called Bourbon, for starters, and its very warm and woody-smelling. Think of sandalwood candles, but maybe a bit.. more heated? It's also a bit cinnamon-y? But not quite. Which probably contributes to that warmth. Actually, as I'm typing this, I think ill get up to go read the description on the bottle.... So, it says White Pepper, Dark Amber, and Kentucky Oak. So yes, very warm and woody and a bit.. dark and spicy as well, I suppose. I love it dearly

[prof-peach]

How far have you made it through the game so far? I’m asking because I think Peach will have a field day when studying a certain hisuian grass type that is known for being ridiculously hard to take care of in the future. Anyway, how do you think peach will react when she gets to study the all the new hisuian forms?

peach has mixed feelings about lilligant, while she loves them, their difficult care needs means she's ALWAYS being handed them in the worst state. people want a pretty pokemon, but don't know how, or even want to provide the correct care, so they quickly fall into disrepair. She loves them sure, but it hurts her heart to see them in the terrible conditions they usually come to her in. I think she may enjoy the Hisuian variant more, they seem more robust in needs and nature, but all plants thrive in their natural habitat, so again, if you remove it from where it belongs, I bet it'll start to fall apart again. I personally haven't even fought Kleavor yet, been filling out the dex, doing all the mindless tasks, training up a few pokemon, hunting some odd species. I play pokemon games real slowly haha! along side making the comic for it, I haven't had a great deal of time. A lot of the game has been me scouring for issues and areas I want to improve on, and then i'll go away and write stories for like a day or two, that fit with the games lore ect. cant say i've been KO'd once yet, so that feels like an achievement for me, i'm usually barreling into trouble in open world games, so i've improved haha! Gotta say, still not as keen on the Hisuian starters, don't like that theres not even a sign of adaptions in their 2nd evos. Feels lazy. Other than that, its been fun, my dog walks with grey are just going through a million ideas for side missions and stories that could occur during the comic haha! bit obsessed over it tbh, its been nice to calmly amble through the gameplay and enjoy it bit by bit.

[lastoneout]

I get the impression that Laventon and Cyllene took one look at Akari and on one of the nights where both sleep in their quarters, and Laventon’s about to go to fall asleep, Cyllene just hits him with a “I think we should adopt Akari” very nonchalantly, then immediately falls asleep.

Laventon is left with his giddy thoughts unable to sleep the whole night because he is just going “IM PROFESSOR DAD NOW”.

That’s why he gifts you the rest of the starters. 😘

Also… imagine post Volo reveal, Akari probably came back badly wounded because she didn’t expect Volo to attack her. And alright. She is a bit traumatized because she basically met Satan (Volo’s like. The most mediocre and inefficient merchant and acted like a useless idiot but it was all a cover up! To lull you into compliance)

Cyllene noticed this so she sends her Abra to watch over Akari constantly. If she gets injured, a potion suddenly falls from the thin air. And when she’s back to Jubilife Cyllene frets over her… in her own quiet way.

Anyways. The found family posibilites with these characters make me feral.

haha this post got long oops

d;kflskdj okay but that's so Cyllene tho like *admits vulnerability and then immediately dodges having to explain or examine it at all* but also you know Laventon saw the protag fall out of the sky and then admit to being completely alone with no family or place to go and was like "is anyone gonna adopt this teenager" and then didn't wait for an answer. Cuz like yes any scenario is funny but pls imagine Cyllene and Laventon with that "we've been together forever" style psychic bond just taking one look at Akari and then each other like "Teenager Acquired"

Also...my weakness......imagining Professor Dad and Cyllene deciding to have another kid and Cyllene is ofc totally chill about it like no sweat at all but when she tells Laventon she's pregnant he's SO nervous and happy that he spends a week accidentally walking into walls and shit, falls down the stairs once or twice, trips into and over furniture, literally has a shinx chewing on him for half a day and barely notices, cannot hold a conversation, just a Mess(tm).

AND my OTHER weakness ofc cuz Found Family Feels imagining protag Akari being happy but also a little sad like "okay yeah now they have a Real Kid" until the kid is born and when Akari gets to meet them Laventon just goes "see that's Akari your big sister" and Akari just goes FULL

(same ofc for big brother Rei, and he and Akari are immediately like "I would DIE for this child" because ofc they would)

Plus pls...uncle Ingo...he already helps with the sneasel babies...open that basket and there's like five little sneasel and one human toddler all asleep. I cannot, my heart, sobbing ect.

Also ah yes Volo my favorite dumbass merchant with rabies(I literally want to rescue him from himself cough cough time loop fic) BUT yeah you know after that Akari/the protag was Fucked Up and I can imagine out of everyone Cyllene would be the one to notice Akari being like "I will keep all of my feelings right here and then one day I'll die" about it and she's like "I'm not gonna make you drag all this Shit(tm) out BUT I am going to absolutely dial up the stealth mom vibes by 500"

(sdkfkldj ALSO abra just fuckin' teleporting a potion to Akari IS adorable but now I'm imagining the abra just being a bit dumb about it and so there are a few times where said potion gets dropped ON Akari or like...over a cliff or something, or like it's getting tossed from off stage left...like look that abra has dumb lazy cat vibes I'm just saying and it's fucking hilarious dklfjdlksj also tbh I can see Akari not saying anything even tho it's OBVIOUSLY Cyllene because she appreciates the Stealth Mom thing even if the results are uh...mixed)

But I also like the idea of Akari/protag just...falling apart like that's the final straw they just Can't and burn out SO hard and we gotta get a FULL found family intervention going we get Cyllene, Laventon, Rei, fuckin' Ingo, everybody is gonna let Akari know she is loved gdi!!! Akari is on the Depressed Express and everyone is getting together to Derail That Train with the power of friendship and love.

[a-tale-of-legends]

kinda new to your blog so sorry if youve already said these, but for the ask game- what are all of your ocs' starters? and do they have nicknames?

Hello!!! I hope you're enjoying your time here on my blog!

_ _ _ _

Jin: Hello! My starter was treecko. She's a Sceptile now, haha. Her name is Vivian.

Kohaku: Oh man, remember when we first got our starters?! Oh that was so long ago....anyway, I chose Torchic -

Jin: Because you wanted to kick my ass back then.

Kohaku: Hey, I had Haru way before you got Vivian! And it's not my fault you lost to me on your first battle-

Jin: I'm only teasing, dear.

Kohaku: Yeah, yeah....anyway! Haru had been my since.... forever! He's a big strong Blaziken now too !

_ _ _ _

Kenji: Oh! Starters? Ooooh hold on, I'll be right back! * Runs off shouting* TATUM!!!

Aiko: I don't have a tradition starter, since I already had Louie, my Azumarill. I've had him since he was an Azurill! Though I think my dad, Professor Elm, was planning to give me a chikorita until someone stole her.

Silver: You said countless of times that you didn't want a starter!

Aiko: True. But I like bugging you, so-

Silver: Oh my god-

Kenji, carrying a Feraligtr: OKAY I'M BACK!* Places the Feraligtr down* Sorry that took a bit. She was sparring with Apple.

Silver: Did you really have to carry here all the way here? You have her PokeBall.

Aiko: Yes. It means my training is working.

Silver: Chucks training.

Aiko: Which he taught to me and I taught to Kenji-

Kenji: ANYWAY! This is Tatum, with bestest girl in the world! * Squishes Tatum's face* Isn't that right girl?

Tatum: *happy noises*

Kenji: Yep! Ummm....who hasn't said anything- oh Beryl! BEEEERRRRRYYLLLLL-

Beryl: Kenji,I'm right here. I've been here the whole time.

Kenji: Oh. Sorry.

Beryl: It's fine. My starter was a cyndaquil by the way. He's a Typhlosion now. Not the hisuian one. His name is Asher.

Kenji: And that's our starters! THANK YOU FOR ASKING!

Aiko: YEAH THANKS!!!

Silver: Why are you two yelling-

_ _ _ _

Danica: .....hey Kiran.

Kiran: Hm?

Danica: What was your starter.

Kiran:......wha? You already know- oh it's an ask.

Danica: Yep.

Kiran: You could have started with that.

Danica: Are you going to answer the question?

Kiran: Alright, fine. My starter was turtwig. He's a Torterra now and his name is Bodhi. There.

Danica: I chose Chimchar. Mostly so Barry wouldn't get her.

Kiran: I doubt that would have done much in terms of Barry's....Barryness.

Danica: Yes, but you love Barry's Barryness.

Kiran: A-and you don't?

Danica: You know exactly what I mean by that.

_ _ _ _

Alexis: Starters? Well * gestures to the Samurott on resting near him* This is Kai. Given to me by professor juniper when we started our journey.

Elliot: Lucky for us, Kai had a twin of her own! *points to the Samurott lazily resting his chin on her lap* This lazy bum is River. I love him dearly.

Eva: My starter was Tepig! Her name is Hazel and she's the best!

Wayne: I never really planned to get a starter, or be a trainer in general. But Clay- I mean, Dad convinced me to get one. I got a snivy! Her name is Lexi and....is it surprising to say she's fully evolved?

Eva: Nah, you're just a cool trainer.

Wayne: Hehe....thanks.

_ _ _ _

Okay so as much as I want to rp the xy protag and sm ones, it gets difficult as I'm doing a nuzlocke of y, so any team building for that is up in the air. However, I made a rule that the starter cannot die . For the SM protags, Ames has a starter, but Poppy is a bit hard for me write now.

Basically, Jude has a Froakie who I'm currently naming Zephyr, Dante is getting a chespin with no nickname right now. Amsonia got a Rowlet who I forgot the name of. Whoops. Poppy is a difficult case given I need to figure out how he fits into my version of sm.

Okay back to the rp!

_ _ _ _

Naomi: O-oh! Hello! Um...oh man I wasn't prepared for this-

Carol: Yo! I chose Grookey! His name is Twigs!

Naomi: M-my starter was Sobble! His name is Neptune....

Carol: Water starters with water based names must run in the family huh?

Naomi: I....I guess so!

_ _ _ _

And that's it!.....okay no. There's Sakura Ume and Zero Yamamoto. Buuuuuuut. I'm lazy lol. Also I haven't played as Zero yet.

I hope this was too your liking. I may have went overboard for such a simple task, but I had fun and I hope you have fun reading it!

[tripstaysnoided]

21 right back at ya, satan. But also 8 and 15 because I'm a good person.

😘 (for everyone's sake I'm factoring both Outrun and the old Uptown into this...because the new Uptown doesn't really have cohesive content yet. Also spoilers beware?)

8. what about your story are you proud of?

I'm proud of having characters that I have fun exploring the personalities and adventures of and even more fun writing dialogue for. Certainly there are times where I'm frustrated by it but it's great to be rescued by a great one-liner.

Boi it's the posing and screenshots. Here's the first pose I ever did that I was also kinda proud of. It is the worst ship ever but I think it says a lot about how they both feel.

Here's one from an Outrun the Scythe chapter you'll see on Saturday. It was a combo of posing, in-game effects from the fog emitter, and editing:

Obviously there are screenshots I dislike but I feel like answering these in order on the list (really)

15. What have been the highlights of creating your story?

Uptown: when I was first made aware that Thu didn't have to end up with Axel and could also be bisexual. I got really stuck on Axel's story due to outside circumstances changing everything and realizing that nothing about his foundation was my doing (given my own path he's just as pathetic don't worry) but it made everything about Thu make sense. Being bisexual gave her something to discover about herself when she otherwise felt like everything else was robbed from her.

Outrun: it was the moment I created Barry, actually. Or when I decided that Kate was 1/4 daemon. One or the other opened the door for Outrun's world to be filled with a lot of ordinary daemon hybrids instead of them being lofty and rare (which was originally the plan yet also the biggest road bump). It makes Sheila's existence a lot more complicated when she has to gradually admit that most daemons are alright people when she has no choice but to meet a bunch.

Also it expanded the cast a lot.

21. Choose your least favourite shot so far.

The coward's route was "haha any Uptown shot with Remi/Layla/Zayne/etc." and that still counts. I came across that were muddy and gross lighting-wise since Windenburg's starter homes have some issues. But I also don't want their faces on my blog anymore.

These are all Uptown shots and in my defense, I was pretty new to TS4 and only trying to impress the wicked bitch of the north. I wish she dropkicked me over this because it would have been far easier.

The jaundice my god-

This was almost gonna go into "my first pose that I liked!" but the clipping was absurd. I'm sure I can find plenty of examples of this, I can't really explain why I was so against editing out my insane clipping other than being kinda lazy!

(@notjustabooksims if you wanna answer the nicer questions feel free! I was just being a little shithead of course)

[kazuwhora]

I hope it's okay to ask for a matchup. thanks so much for doing these, but please please don't push yourself to finish them, especially since you just got hit by a car!

My pronouns are she/her and my romantic preference would be for a guy. I'm a hardworking, ambitious person (sometimes at the expense of my own mental health and wellness). It's important to me to be able to work towards my goals and be with someone who has goals of their own. I'd get frustrated by someone who never knows when to take things seriously. I tend to stress myself out sometimes and often let my stress bottle up. Cleaning/organizing and baking always help me feel centered and reduce my stress when I feel like I'm freaking out a bit. I tend to also be a little bit of a control freak on occasion in everyday life. I can be somewhat reserved when it comes to meeting new people, but around my close friends and family, I'm much more open and talkative. My friends and family are very important to me and I always try to be reliable and there for them whenever they need support. When it comes to hobbies, I enjoy reading, watching tv/movies, cross stitch, and shopping. I also tend to be a romantic. I'm not really an outdoorsy person though and don't enjoy things like camping and hiking a ton. My idea of a perfect date would probably be something pretty classic like going out to a nice dinner. I do enjoy getting dressed up and doing something fancy. Though, I'd also enjoy something like going to a carnival or festival together and just enjoying each other's company for a day. The most important thing is just spending time and connecting with the person I care about. My love languages are quality time and physical touch. It's simple, but I think it's super sweet just walking down the street and holding hands with someone. I also think it's nice when someone is taller than me so I can lean my head on their arm or shoulder while we stand next to each other (this sounds cheesy haha).

I hope this is okay and you're staying happy, healthy, and hydrated. Thanks so much for doing this!

omg ty for being so sweet and caring I'm sorry this took so long to get to I just had a back log of requests but I'm doing ok now!! just a little bruised <3

im going to match you up with draken!

fdjhjdg im not gonna lie I think this is super cute hehe like for starters I think your hardworking personality is something that draken really values in a partner. he's not one that will thrive off of laziness and slacking because so much of his life was spent managing that with mikey (not that he doesnt love mikey but its hard to exercise that part of yourself with both a close friend and a partner). so needless to say, the ambition and seriousness that you have towards your goals is something that draken mirrors, and immensely appreciates about you. and that alone reduces a lot of stress and tension on a relationship.

I feel like draken is pretty good about your issues with control as well. he doesn't quite get it (mostly because his whole life has been about learning to cope with not having complete control), but he is able to recognize your struggles and provide you stability or a sense of understanding at the very least when it comes to these scenarios. you might get frustrated sometimes though, when he doesn't quite catch on right off the bat when it comes to your emotions. he's very straightforward and to the point, so being vulnerable and clear with your feelings is going to be important here.

as far as hobbies and shared activities go, hello draken the service boyfriend. he really doesn't care what you do, he just wants to make you smile and really just appreciates spending time with you. again it can get frustrating especially if you tend to overthink and get concerned with what he wants, so it takes tapping into that controlling urge to put things back into harmony and understand he is fully content to allow you the reigns when it comes to spending time together.

he's not the most touchy person in the world, but if you beg him enough he'll let you link arms with him while you walk. he's also a tiny bit of a hopeless romantic and might actually be a little insecure about it (cue him getting emma that bear and then just leaving LOL its like he's scared of rejection or scared of being perceived a certain way that he thinks if he just removes himself from the situation he's immune). in these cases reassurance and what could be described as overexcitement is something that will hot home for him and validate his actions.

[bastionkeeper]

Idk if you’d be interested but I absolutely die for 10 meeting Crowley somewhere in history and having a fun lil mix up with the trouble they’re both in

Anonymous said: Can I get some fuckin uhhhh Donna content? If you want!

I’m so sorry this took a million years and came out totally different, shorter, and probably less good than expected asdflkja it’s been a long bit of getting back to school, working in preparation for the festival that’s gonna kill me this weekend, and the big sad writer’s block, I decided to just post it now while I have SOMETHING at least

"I promise this is going to make up for that whole mess with the novasquid."

"It better, my hair still smells like calamari and I've showered four times now."

The sound of fond bickering often filled the TARDIS, though the incident with the novasquid had, indeed, increased the usual amount of bickering quite a bit. 

"Look, 3308, Mars, the nightlife is incredible," The Doctor assured Donna. "I once spent a night there, don't remember a thing, might have gotten married or… divorced, anyway…"

"I can't believe it, we're going clubbing," Donna laughed.

"Well, yeah, but on Mars," the Doctor emphasized, hoping for the usual human wonder at travel in time and space.

"You gonna go dressed like that? All suit and teacher glasses?" 

"You're one to talk, showing up to a 3308 club dressed like it's 2007," the Doctor said, grinning and raising a critical eyebrow.

He threw a lever and flipped a switch, and the TARDIS stopped groaning and shaking as they landed.

"Alright, Mars," Donna said, dramatically tossing her hair. "Lock up your husbands."

"Right…" the Doctor raised an eyebrow and headed for the door, grabbing his coat on the way.

The door opened and Donna and the Doctor stepped out…

...onto a London street.

"Mars, right?" Donna huffed. "You need to fix that GPS. Are we at least in the future?"

"Uh…" the Doctor pulled out his sonic screwdriver and took readings only he could read from a device with neither screen nor speaker. "Depends… we're either somewhere in the nineties or 2019…"

"How can it be either the nineties or 2019?" Donna asked. 

"This is really strange…"

"No stranger than usual, you promising a vacation and us ending up in the wrong part of the universe."

"No, I mean…" the Doctor looked at the sonic with a frown. "These readings for Earth are all… well… it's saying it's only about six thousand years old."

"So it's busted then," Donna said. 

"Maybe…" the Doctor pocketed the sonic and looked around. "Well, so long as we're here."

"Oh no," Donna sighed. "No, don't get distracted. Let's get back in the TARDIS and go to Mars."

"Look! An old bookshop!" The Doctor beamed, pointing out the building. "Love an old bookshop, let's take a peek."

"Oh no," Donna groaned, as the Doctor grabbed her hand and dragged her towards the shop labeled: A.Z. FELL.

"Your orchid is getting lazy."

Aziraphale looked up from his book to where Crowley was examining a flower, one he'd brought to the bookshop as a gift a month ago.

"Maybe it's just enjoying a quiet moment away from all the yelling," Aziraphale said coyly, returning to his book. 

The bell at the door rang as a pair of customers entered, and neither demon nor angel took notice. 

"Sure, let it go soft," Crowley scoffed. 

"As if you don't like soft," Aziraphale shot back, not looking up from his book.

Crowley made a big show of snarling like he was offended as he wrapped his arms around Aziraphale's waist and pressed a kiss to his cheek.

"Don't you have things to do today? Besides harass the orchid?" Aziraphale asked.

"Yeah, but I'll be back for it," Crowley said with a wink. "You enjoy chasing people off all day."

Aziraphale waved him off, and for a split second two non-humans with remarkably similar faces passed by each other without noticing.

Then Crowley left the shop.

"Are you done yet?" Donna sighed, leaning heavily on a bookshelf. The Doctor was nose deep in a book, and had been for about an hour. Not the same book, no, he kept poking around in books and peeking around the bookshop much to the owner's dismay. Donna suspected if it weren't for the other customers that he'd have personally chased them off long ago.

"Something's very strange about all this," the Doctor said, not looking up. 

"Yeah, strange how you promised me adventure and now we're standing around looking at antique books," Donna said. "I think you do this on purpose."

"I wish I could claim that," the Doctor chuckled. "Nope, all accident."

"Well so long as you're reading, I'm going to go find something to do," Donna said. "You know, while you gather dust."

The Doctor waved her off and she stuck her tongue out at him, before heading for the door. 

The Doctor was reading Hamlet or rather he was sort of reading it, because it was just a little different from what he remembered. 

For starters it was completely dull, not at all the play remembered by the ages. Second of all the publishing date was definitely not the correct one, and yet he was certain this was an original copy. An original copy somehow lovingly maintained without a temperature controlled room or protective case, just placed on a bookshelf surrounded by several other well loved books.

"Oh, you don't want that one."

The Doctor looked up at the voice, the owner had left his post and come over to him. Aziraphale hadn't seen the customer's face yet, only seen his back as he pursued for far too long with too much interest. Another collector, probably, hard to shake.

"Oh?" The Doctor asked, turning to face Aziraphale. "Why not?"

For a moment surprise spread over Aziraphale's face, and then confusion.

"Wait… but…" he squinted. "Crowley, are you playing some kind of trick?"

"Uh, no, no tricks here," the Doctor said with an equally confused look and a friendly shrug. "Sorry, what did you call me?"

"Oh stop it," Aziraphale huffed. "You've barely even shapeshifted, are you trying to be funny?"

"Well now that's just rude," the Doctor said. "I'm very different now, got all long and grew my hair out, and the ears are totally different."

"Ears?" Aziraphale asked, bewildered.

"Do you know me?" The Doctor asked curiously.

"I should say so I…" Aziraphale paused. "... or maybe I don't. You don't feel… demonic. Are you not Crowley?"

"I'm the Doctor," he replied. "And I'm not a demon, sorry."

"That's bizarre." Aziraphale gaped. "You look just like him…"

"You did say demon, right?" The Doctor asked, and Aziraphale blanched.

"Did I?" He asked casually.

"Oh, don't get secretive now," the Doctor chuckled. "Would it help if I said I was an alien? I show you mine you show me… well, you get it." He pulled a face at his own choice of words.

"That's impossible," Aziraphale laughed. "She hasn't started work on the other worlds yet."

"She?"

"Nothing you need to worry about," Aziraphale said finally.

"Why didn't you want me to buy this book?" The Doctor asked. "And why's it all wrong? It's Hamlet but it's garbage, Hamlet's not garbage."

"That's the pre-edited copy," Aziraphale said smugly. 

"What edits are those?"

"The important ones." Aziraphale looked impatient now. "Who are you, really?"

"I told you, I'm the Doctor, I'm a time lord, I'm not from around here."

"Time lord? Sounds a bit pompous…"

"So does claiming intimate knowledge of the writing of Hamlet, but I think maybe we've both got the right," the Doctor said, eyes burning with interest. "Were you there? When it was written?"

"Were you?" Aziraphale countered.

"I was."

"Well I certainly don't remember you."

The Doctor looked triumphant at having gotten a confession that might help him puzzle out the situation, and Aziraphale sighed.

"Alright, which office sent you?"

"What offices?" The Doctor asked.

"Heaven! Hell! What "department" are you?" Aziraphale pushed. 

"Neither, and what exactly are you?"

"I am an angel," Aziraphale said defensively. "And I am very confused."

"Confused isn't so bad, confused means you get to figure something out," the Doctor said. "Tell you what, you tell me about Heaven, Hell, and Hamlet and maybe we can figure this out."

Aziraphale sighed and gestured to the back room, miracling on some tea. "Might as well. This way."

Donna was just starting to get bored when she saw him, crossing the street just a bit away. She chased after him, shouting when he didn't stop for her.

"Hey! Spaceman! You gone deaf and blind?" She huffed, grabbing Crowley by the arm and surprising him considerably. "You finally done with that bookshop then?"

"I… what?" Crowley asked.

"What have you done to your hair?" Donna asked. "And your…" she gestured broadly to all of him. "... all that."

"Well, nothing recently, bout time for a change," Crowley said. "Do I know you?"

"Haha, very funny." Donna rolled her eyes. "Can we go now?"

"Seriously, who are you?" Crowley asked.

"Oh God, I know what this is," Donna sighed in exasperation. "Martha told me about this, you got a pocket watch on you then?"

"Why would I have a pocket watch? What year do you think it is?" Crowley scoffed. 

"C'mon, it's not funny," Donna said. "Just hurry up and-"

Crowley snapped, trying to put the woman in a trance so he could get some answers out of her.

But Donna Noble was not so easily tranced.

"Are you snapping at me?" She shouted, putting her hands on her hips.

"Nngk!" Crowley choked, startled into backing up, arms pinwheeling comically.

"Something happened to you at that bookstore, is that it?" She said. "Right, we're going back, I'll not have you walking around looking like Mr. Goth Fashion and snapping at me."

"I'm… sorry?" Crowley spluttered, finding himself being dragged along. Oh well, she was headed towards Aziraphale's anyway, at least he'd have backup.

Crowley and Donna entered the bookshop just as Aziraphale and the Doctor had decided to go looking for them. There was a minute of Donna, Aziraphale, and the Doctor gaping in confusion at the demonic and alien doppelganger situation, before Crowley broke the silence.

"YOU!" he accused. "Of course it's you!"

"So you know me?" The Doctor asked.

"And you don't know me yet? Great," Crowley huffed. "You made a real mess of the thirties, you know that?"

"Not yet I haven't," the Doctor said, sounding offended.

"So you know him, Crowley?" Aziraphale asked.

"Yeah, he's the idiot with my face who always got me blamed for everything," Crowley said. "Trying to get back to his own universe, is this day one then?"

"What. The hell. Is going on?" Donna asked.

"Funny you should mention hell," the Doctor chuckled. "You know I met Satan once."

"Twice," Crowley corrected him. "Look forward to it. That one actually did me a favor, I was employee of the month."

"No one's answered me," Donna pointed out.

"You and your alien boyfriend are about to time travel through our world till you find a way back to yours, that's what's going on," Crowley said.

"Not my boyfriend," Donna said just as the Doctor said "I'm not her boyfriend."

"And Mr. Fell and his friend here are an angel and a demon," the Doctor added.

"We're not friends," Aziraphale said, just as Crowley corrected him to "partner."

"No way," Donna said.

"I assure you, miss," Aziraphale said. "Very much 'way.'"

"Satan, you're so embarrassing," Crowley chuckled.

"You know, normally I've seen a face before I steal it," the Doctor said.

"Likewise," Crowley said. "But I've got a few thousand years on you so I can say for sure She didn't copy paste me."

“Copy paste?” the Doctor asked, offended.

“Regardless, it seems we’ve sorted things out,” Aziraphale said. “Though I must admit , knowing you really are a time traveling alien from another dimension opens up so many questions…” his eyes glittered with that familiar look he got when discovering a new and fascinating book. “I have questions,” he said, taking the Doctor by the arm and leading him to the back room where he’d ply him for stories with refreshments and stories of his own.

“I’ll just be a minute, Donna,” the Doctor called over his shoulder.

“Yeah, that’s what he said last time,” Donna sighed.

“We’ll be lucky to see them sometime this century,” Crowley sighed along with her. “I’m going to have to dust him off again.”

“Whatchu say we leave them and go get some drinks?” Donna suggested.

“Told you, he’s my partner… thing,” Crowley said awkwardly, as Donna rolled her eyes.

“Don’t flatter yourself, hellboy, you’re all bones and sunglasses,” she said with a dismissive wave of her hand. “C’mon, I want to know which of my friends are going to hell.”

I'M GOING TO INFODUMP AND YOU ARE GOING TO LIKE IT. AND I AM ALSO GOING TO SHARE MEMES THAT YOU WILL NOT UNDERSTAND WITHOUT READING SO THEREFORE YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO READ LOL.

Okay so

I recently joined this Nightmare Before Christmas server (that was the inspiration for me to draw Mr. Hyde in Tim Burton's style) and it has this roleplay channel. Only one, but that is all a gremlin like myself needs.

Because I am very much hyperfixating on Jekyll and Hyde, I wanted to play them on the server SO I DID. Yes, I know that Mr. Hyde is already a character in The Nightmare Before Christmas BUT I DON'T CARE SO THAT MEANS YOU CAN'T YELL AT ME FOR IT AHAHAHA (in all seriousness, we did have a fun Hyde-meets-Hyde moments so it's all good). Anyway. So, I write a starter, right? And things start out generally okay, Jekyll's lost in the woods because Hyde was running away from the authorities and got both of them into Deep Shit™. Eventually, Jekyll runs into Finkelstein (we hate Finkelstein in this house 😤) and Finkelstein questions Jekyll. The conversation gets heated and Jekyll gets very overwhelmed and transforms into Hyde. Finkelstein's like "well shit ig this guy will fit in after all lol" and points Hyde in the direction of Halloween Town. Then Hyde threatens Finkelstein because Hyde's an asshole. This entire interaction leaves Finkelstein rather confused.

(One prolonged interaction involving a witch OC throwing glitter in Hyde's eyes later) Jekyll's eyes hurt, and not just because of the glitter. He's very shocked and overwhelmed by the townspeople because every single one of them sticks out like a sore thumb. Jekyll runs into the mayor, who's looking for Jack, and then he runs into Jack, who's looking for Sally. Then he falls asleep on a bench lol.

He wakes up as Hyde. He meets the other Mr. Hyde (haha you have to keep track of TWO now /j) before Finkelstein walks in saying that he found Jack with Sally, and now he's mad at Sally so that sucks. Anyway, Finkelstein makes a snide remark at Hyde, so Hyde is rude right back, saying that he's "had quite enough" of Halloween Town. Finkelstein says, "Then why don't you just leave?" And Hyde's like "FINE" so he does.

Now we get to the juicy part.

Hyde is sitting in the graveyard, essentially throwing a temper tantrum when he hears Zero barking. He beckons the dog and says this: "You see? Nothing to worry about. I like dogs more than I’ll ever like people, and I especially prefer you over those things in town. I’m not much of a gambler, but I’ll bet you anything that I’m the least interesting person here. And here I thought I liked interesting, hah.”

For those of you who haven't watched The Nightmare Before Christmas, or those of you who've forgotten, gambling is associated with Oogie Boogie. So yeah, that comment about Hyde not being a gambler? Intentional. I'm so fucking cool /j.

So anyway, suddenly, Zero is distressed and runs off into the woods. Hyde chases him. He runs further and further into the woods until he starts to hear a laugh. He slows down. The laugh becomes louder and more menacing. I'll just copy and paste what happens next because I'm lazy:

Hyde stops. He’s heard a laugh like that come out of his own mouth. It’s the laugh of someone who’s about to do something terrible and enjoy it. “Oho, is this some kind of game? I know that kind of laugh anywhere, I’ve laughed it before. Go ahead, I’ll play.”

"A Game..?" The ominous voice declares.

“Well, I did just ask if it was. Is it?” Hyde doesn’t show it, but he feels a little uneasy now.

He is only greeted by the sound of chittering insects, scurrying all about around the trees. A big hairy insect scurries up to Hyde's foot.

“Eugh, disgusting.” He kicks it away.

The creature lets out a screech, then suddenly hundreds of insects make their way down the trees towards Hyde.

Hyde’s eyes widen into an “oh shit” expression. He starts to back away.“Ohhhhh dear.”

Rivers of squirming mass pulsate on the ground. Wriggling, Crawling, Skittering. Sounds of violin being hacked by a meat cleaver rapidly HmmMmMmm.. The voice is heard once more, laughing.

Hyde doesn’t know why, but he’s ridiculously annoyed with that voice. His stomach drops and his neck gets hot in a strange combination of terror and irritation. “S-so…” He clears his throat, desperately trying to sound confident. “So, is this your idea of a game?”

"Yessss AhAH-" The mass of legs and worms and bugs begin to collect in the middle of the path, into one large mass of squirm and gross. It forms as if it were like snow building to make a snowman, until it falls apart, and crawls back up onto itself.

“Erm….” Hyde really doesn’t know how to respond to this. He shifts his weight, uncomfortable. “What exactly are you trying to do here?”

"Fetch me a sack will ya..?"

“Haha,” he laughs awkwardly, “anything to not die, because it looks like that’s where this is going.” He runs off. About a half an hour later, he returns with not one but several potato sacks. “Snatched these from a shed in town, hopefully nobody misses them.”

(Okay back to actually typing it out) The bugs fill up one of the sacks to the brim, and the mysterious sentient bug mass (it totally isn't Oogie Boogie you guys /s) stumbles off and throws itself into a hill which closes up when Hyde tries to approach. Hyde, growing increasingly frustrated, storms off back to the graveyard. After sitting there awhile, three trick-or-treaters come to thank him for helping Oogie Boogie. The exchange is super creepy but I'm not copy/pasting any more because no. (Timeskip to later that night) Hyde can't sleep, so he walks back out into the woods looking for answers. He comes across an OC named Jonnie that, for some reason, gives him a strange feeling of deja vu (these two are dating in another server lol). Hyde's still an asshole tho so he tries to attack Jonnie, who proceeds to knock him down and tie him to a tree. L. After that embarrassing experience, Hyde has had just about enough and spends the rest of the night in the forest. When morning comes, Hyde sees Jack in the graveyard and the two are pulled into an awkward conversation that as of now isn't finished. During this conversation, Hyde lies about having enemies that were out for him, so Jack says this: "Well, in Halloween Town, we're all Friends here..! Well except for that Oogie Boogie.." This causes some internal screaming for Hyde as he unwittingly helped Oogie Boogie in some way. Whoops. He lies about even knowing Oogie.

ANNNND THAT'S IT FOR NOW! Enjoy the memes.

yo! i think it's better if i just shut my mouth forever. well, i already know i'm super impatient and that leads to me being impulsive. i burst out my angers cause i can't control myself. i hold a very strong emotions and i hate to say that it's dangerous for me. yes my family are all like this so there's no questioning where i got this attitide lol. but lately, i'm so guilty about my grandma. back when i was still in our house, 2 hours away from here, i used to tell myself that everything will be fine. just stay positive, and you can reach whatever your goals is. turns out, it was still the same. i was still so stubborn, lazy, no manners, a hoe, and most of all a very stupid girl. i would never change right.

i came to my grandma's house to change myself but i don't know. am i going crazy or my attitude just worsened. i wanna cry, i wanna shout, i wanna let all my inhibitions and emotions out for once in my life since i last had done this. but i can't. i really really can't do it. maybe i'm just super dramatic. i believe everyone has their own battles and my case isn't different at all. i know i'm not the only one that has ever felt this way, so maybe, just maybe, it was me all the time. i just exaggerated everything. that i'm not feeling pain, or sadness, or anger, or happiness, cause i wasn't feeling anything at all and i'm just pretending to feel anything cause i'm a loser.

days from now, i'm gonna regret that i posted this again. i'm gonna say to myself that i'm being a dramatic girl again, and after that i'm gonna forget about this. like i usually do haha. i mean, my language isn't english and i'm just trying hard to fit and copy. i'm so cringey af. when will i ever change. i kept saying it to myself but i wasn't doing anything to fulfill it. for starters, i don't even know what i'm gonna do with my life. can i just disappear for a moment. hope i can find myself soon.

Dialogue starter prompts: can you do "Keep your eyes shut." with... uhh I just woke up I'm too lazy to choose characters or the fandom so just do it woth whoever upu want from whatever fandom you want and have fun writing it!

:D I hope you like this then, sorry for taking so long to write it! I’ll just write another The Musketeers modern au thing here, haha

“Keep your eyes shut”, Porthos whispered. “Sleep a little more. You exhausted yourself with all that baking yesterday.”

Aramis muttered something incomprehensible as he continued sleeping. Porthos smiled at him and got up. He’d been a little worried about Aramis who’d been up baking and cooking ever since the early hours of the morning on Christmas Eve. It seemed that he’d exhausted himself completely and was sleeping so deeply that even Porthos’ movement wouldn’t wake him.

When Porthos walked into the living room, he saw Aramis’ 3-year-old daughter Lucia sitting on the bed, hugging her teddy bear. When she saw Porthos, her face lit up.

“Can we open the gifts now?” she asked eagerly. Porthos laughed at her eagerness and ruffled her hair a little.

“Let’s not open them yet”, Porthos said. “Let’s have breakfast first. I think your father baked some very good-looking croissants yesterday.”

“He did”, Lucia said. “Is he still sleeping?”

“Yes, he is”, Porthos said. “He got really tired after all that baking yesterday.”

“Mamá says papá’s a stress-baker”, Lucia said as she and Porthos walked into the kitchen. “What does that mean?”

“It means that he bakes a lot when he’s feeling stressed”, Porthos told as he found the croissants. “Apparently that calms him down.”

“I see”, Lucia said. The two ate their croissants in silence and when they were done, they decided to wake Aramis up by getting him some coffee and a croissant. Porthos made the coffee while Lucia chose the best croissant for Aramis. They then walked to the bedroom where Aramis was snoring lightly. Porthos sat on the bed next to him and brushed his hair off his face.

“Wake up, Aramis”, Porthos said softly. “Lucia wants to open the gifts.”

“You just told me to sleep”, Aramis whispered.

“We made you some coffee”, Lucia said. “Let’s open the gifts, papá!”

“Okaaay”, Aramis said as he sat up. Lucia handed him the cup of coffee and he smiled as she told him of the dream she’d had.

“You done?” Lucia asked as Aramis when he finished his croissant. When he nodded, she cheered and rushed into the living room.

“So much energy”, Aramis said. “Where does she get all that from?”

“From not baking all day long”, Porthos said and kissed Aramis. “Will you be alright?”

“Yes”, Aramis said as they walked into the living room. “I have you two after all.”

I hope you liked this! Merry Christmas & Happy holidays to you all!!

And....this is why I don't journal. I always forget about it hahaha.

Friday:

Went on a 10 mile bike ride. It was really cool! They blocked off some roads for some spring thing, so we were able to ride side by side and not dodge through all the pedestrians.

Nickelodeon released ATLA on Netflix after hoarding it for 10 years!!!

Netflix also released the last season of she-ra, which I'll get to on Monday.

Weekend note: I binged the entirety of ATLA fri-sun. It was absolutely glorious.

Sunday: social distancing tennis with some friends. I was really....lazy about it but I'm glad Jack had a good time :) we got sushi after and ate on the field by my apartment. It was like, peak zen day.

Monday: binged the FUCK out of shera and ngl I was shocked catradora actually became canon. The buildup to it was so good and I loved every second of it. I wasn't horribly impressed with the earlier seasons, but mainly bc I have too high standards for animation...... It's not low budget, but it's stylized to be simple, that's all.

Tuesday:

Fanart! Spent the workday not working haha. Zero fucks given I have senioritis from my job.

Today/Wednesday/May 20:

I was working on another drawing but I don't really know how to go about it so it put me in a slump. And since I was in a slump, the night was very depressing haha. I made myself wash dishes and spent 2 hrs telling myself to work out. Ended up doing a 45 min HIIT at 0130 so gj me.

Jack restarted his sourdough starter with rye this time and it blooooomed. Dough is proofing overnight, I'm excited!!!! His last few attempts didn't turn out so well and he had to convert them to (very tasty) breadsticks instead.
