The Results Are In!

Well, everyone. It's finally done.

After almost four months, this blog went over as many of Weird Al's direct song parodies (not his style/artist parodies or polka remixes!) as humanly possible. And we're happy to say that for both full song parodies and smaller parody medleys...

Weird Al won!

The final score for full song parodies is:

Originals: 18, Weird Al: 60

Weird Al didn't just win. He won by a landslide.

Due to the sheer number of victories by Weird Al in this category, we have put the full list of winners under the Read More. (We have also put a full list of the polls where voters were the most decisive, where no one voted to see results.)

The 18 original songs that beat Weird Al were:

Won't Get Fooled Again (The Who)

Another One Bites the Dust (Queen)

Taxman (The Beatles)

The Safety Dance (Men Without Hats)

It's Still Rock and Roll to Me (Billy Joel)

Eye of the Tiger (Survivor)

Girls Just Want to Have Fun (Cyndi Lauper)

U Can't Touch This (MC Hammer)

Zoot Suit Riot (Cherry Poppin' Daddies)

One Week (Barenaked Ladies)

Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) (The Offspring)

Complicated (Avril Lavigne)

Lose Yourself (Eminem)

Piano Man (Billy Joel)

American Idiot (Green Day)

Born This Way (Lady Gaga)

You Belong With Me (Taylor Swift)

Radioactive (Imagine Dragons)

Now for the bonus medley category! Despite the smaller amount of contenders, the race was a lot closer in this section, but Weird Al still pulled ahead! The bonus medley section's final score is:

Originals: 11, Weird Al: 17

The short, but sweet, Weird Al parodies proved to be:

Avocado

Fatter

I Feel Like Throwing Up

Flatbush Avenue

Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut

Take the L out of Liver

We Got the Beef

Burger King

Doctor, Doctor

Make Me Steak #3

Moldy Now

Blame It on the Drain

Bedrock Anthem (Under the Bridge portion)

Gee, I'm a Nerd

Lousy Haircut

Fast Food

I'm in Luv Wit Da Skipper

The victorious original songs were:

House of the Rising Sun (The Animals)

More Than a Feeling (Boston)

Take Me to the River (Al Green)

Crazy On You (Heart)

Time in a Bottle (Jim Croce)

Maneater (Hall & Oates)

Don't You (Forget about Me) (Simple Minds)

Whole Lotta Love (Led Zeppelin)

Live and Let Die (Paul McCartney and Wings)

Black or White (Michael Jackson)

My Heart Will Go On (Celine Dion)

Fun Facts!

This blog had two ties during the course of the competition that required additional 24-hour tiebreakers.

"Feel Like Makin' Love" (Bad Company) and "I Feel Like Throwing Up" (Weird Al) both tied for 45.5% of 22 votes, with 9.1% of people electing to see results. "I Feel Like Throwing Up" later won with 58.8% of 17 votes from a lightning round tiebreaker.

"Whole Lotta Love" (Led Zeppelin) vs. "Whole Lotta Lunch" (Weird Al) both tied for 47.4% of 19 votes, with 5.3% electing to see results. "Whole Lotta Love" later won with 62.5% of 16 votes from a lightning round tiebreaker.

There were 8 original songs that got 0% of their polls' votes:

"Jeopardy" (The Greg Kihn Band) got 0% of 36 votes. If no one had voted to see results (2.8%), Weird Al would have gotten a full 100% sweep!

"Suddenly Last Summer" (The Motels) got 0% of 12 votes. 25% of voters elected to see results. This song lost to a medley song.

"Doctor! Doctor!" (The Thompson Twins) got 0% of 8 votes. 12.5% of voters elected to see results. This song lost to a medley song.

"I Want a New Drug" (Huey Lewis and the News) got 0% of 19 votes. 0% of voters chose to see results. Which means that "I Want a New Duck" is the first Weird Al song to win 100% of the votes against its opponent!

"Baby Don't Forget My Number" (Milli Vanilli) got 0% of 8 votes. 25% of voters elected to see results.

"MacArthur Park" (Richard Harris) got 0% of 32 votes. 3.1% of voters elected to see results.

"It's All About the Benjamins (Rock Remix)" (Puff Daddy) got 0% of 21 votes. 0% of votes chose to see results. "It's All About the Pentiums" is the second Weird Al song to win 100% of the votes against its opponent!

"Jack & Diane" (John Mellencamp) got 0% of 24 votes. 12.5% of voters chose to see results.

There was at least one instance that we could find of identical poll results:

Both "More Than a Feeling" vs. "More Than a Filling" and "Take Me to the River" vs. "Take Me to the Liver" saw the original song get 56% of 25 votes, the parody get 44%, and the "see results" option get no votes.

There was one unique matchup in which voters routinely disliked both original song and Weird Al's parody:

Multiple voters said it was hard to choose between "Baby Talks Dirty" (The Knack) and "Baby Likes Burping" (Weird Al) because both songs are (allegedly) very unpleasant to listen to.

Finally... a shoutout to the two polls that got the most votes overall:

"My Sharona" (The Knack) vs "My Bologna" (Weird Al), which got 342 votes.

"Another One Bites the Dust" (Queen) vs. "Another One Rides the Bus" (Weird Al), which got 458 votes.

Thank you all so much for tuning into this competition! After a brief hiatus, we will be back for Phase 2: Artist/Style Parodies!

Here are all the Weird Al parodies that won the main contest:

I came across your anti-Grishaverse posts and I like to add some of own analyses about the worldbuilding (if you're willing to go through the series again after 2021, ofc). My knowledge on Russian history and folklore is very surface level but even then I still was absolutely baffled at how bad the worldbuilding is. Especially with "Grisha" which is literally Russian for Greg???? Lol, let's just call in the Pasha Army too because why not. I've already relentlessly made fun of the name "Grishaverse" being a multiverse of Gregs so here are my favorites: Gregor-Man: Into the Greg-verse. Gregory-thing Gregory-where All At Greg, Doctor Greg and the Multiverse of Greg-ness. And it's even worse with the show when they clumsily tried to explore racism with a more diverse cast of people of Asian descent which would've been an incredible story considering Russia's rich history with the Mongols and the Turks but then they had to add in the term "rice-eater". When like, Russian cuisine includes rice. Like salmon coulibiac. So it just makes no sense at all, it's kinda the equivalent of calling an American "burger-eater". And the absence of patronymic names just because the author thought it sounded better without them (Alina Starkov is grammatically incorrect and it drove me insane, it literally takes 5 minutes to look up how to do it). I think it's great how the author wanted to do a fantasy story with some vaguely Slavic traditions but the result reminds me of Raya and the Last Dragon from Disney which, as a South East Asian person, I really dislike because it literally does the same thing of cherry picking stuff from SEAsian countries and using words from real languages that don't make sense at all, even if it's a fantasy story (I really hate the "dep la" line from the movie). It's like the author doesn't really care about the nuances of Russian society or Slavic societies in general and really only cared about the aesthetics of it (which the show didn't even do right, what the fuck are those costumes, I hate fantasy costumes that look like they were on a haute couture fashion line). Which could lead into some really awful pitfalls bordering on stereotyping and exoticization. I think it's great how she wanted to do a fantasy story with some vaguely Slavic traditions since they're pretty underappreciated but the result reminds me of Raya and the Last Dragon from Disney which, as a South East Asian person, I really dislike because it literally does the same thing of cherry picking stuff from SEAsian countries and using words from real languages that don't make sense at all (I really hate the "dep la" line from the movie). I'm just tired of authors cherry picking stuff from other cultures for the aesthetics and don't bother to really delve into said cultures and build an interesting story inspired by their folklore or history. Not to mention, it feels like the lack of research shows a reluctance to genuinely learn and fall in love with Slavic cultures, like Westerners still think they're backwards and barbaric. I certainly felt the same way with Raya.

So, I'll start with the disclaimer that I haven't seen Raya as of now so I can't really speak for it, BUT I think the one nuance I would bring to this is that I do think it's fine to use artistic licence when you're taking inspiration for a certain culture, WITH THE VERY IMPORTANT CAVEAT that you need to understand what you're taking inspiration from in the first place.

Take me, for instance. My original fiction takes inspiration (among other things) of Breton tales and mythology, since it's the region where it's believed Nimue trapped Merlin, and there is a personnifcation of Death figure that is a bit of a nod to the Ankou (who in Breton mythology is considered to be Death's henchman), a plot point that will be a callback to the Midnight Washerwomen, and so on and so forth, but none of these are a 1:1 comparison with the Ankou and the Midnight Washerwomen, simply because... well, I felt like doing something different. But you know, I acknowledge it's a nod, I'm not going to say "Lord Death in my story is like the Ankou", because that simply wouldn't be true nor accurate.

All that to say, "inspiration" doesn't save you from having to do research, and learning "why" certain things tick a certain way. Orthodoxy tends to be very oriented towards mysticism and spirituality, and we kind of get that with the cult of the Saints in the Grishaverse, but if you stop and think about religion for more than 5 minutes in that setting, it falls apart. You could get away with saying naming conventions are different in your story compared to Russian conventions (if only for the sake of being gender-neutral and more inclusive), but it becomes a problem when there are several other mistakes that native speakers can easily point out.

And then, of course, you have to take into account that LB's forte is not writing fantasy that involves politics, sociology, wars, and so on. If we're talking about something that's more "in isolation" like the SoC duology, you can get away with that. Seriously, 19th Russia was a mess - it produced absolutely amazing art that endures to this day and still inspires a lot of people (not that we see any hint of that lmao), but it was also a pretty shitty place to live if you were a peasant or a serf. The problem is, the PoV characters we have for both the Grisha trilogy and the KoS duology are essentially 21st century characters, who apply 21st century logic and solutions to a 19th century setting, and instead of that causing a certain set of consequences, it works out for them when it really shouldn't, all the while they're ignoring HUGE PROBLEMS that are right there.

If you're going to write high fantasy with big stakes, I cannot recommend enough reading and learning about history. You're writing about a female freedom fighter in an oppressive regime? Read about real life folk heroines - Boudica, the Trung sisters, Joan of Arc, Emilia Plater, Rani Lakshmibai. You're writing about a rags (or close enough) to ruler protagonist? Read about Catherine I of Russia, Wei Zifu, Basil I, Fredegund, Theodora, Honwu Emperor. What made them tick? How did they get all the way to the top? Was it charm? Guile? Brute force? Knowledge? Sheer luck? Divine intervention (don't look at me like that, go ask Joan)? How did royal courts work? What were the conflicts at the time? Why were there conflicts at the time?

"But Irina, why should I do that research? It's all magic and dragons and monsters!"

Unless we're talking about a post-apocalyptic or primitive society, you're still going to have a certain level of societal organization. How is magic viewed in your fantasy world? Is it allowed? Glorified? Despised? Where does it come from? What's your inspiration? How does this inspiration view magic? What are you going to do differently and why? Are your dragons friendly or not? Are they gods? Pets? Prey? Are we talking about dragons in Persian mythology where they represent vices? If you're going to make them benevolent, why? Are they Chinese dragons, where they're considered benevolent and wise (on that note, that's why China had a more negative reaction to Mushu when Disney's animated version of Mulan came out)? If they're just going to be mindless beasts who just think about violence, why? Why not even pick another monster if you're going to make them the big bad when they're anything but? And the list goes on.

Hi friends! I'm dabbling in tomgreg, again. Don't worry, though - I'll be back steddieing very soon (there are like... four WIPS on the way!) I thought it'd be fun to dabble with sugar daddy esque Tom. Here's hoping you guys enjoy! Catch a sneak peek of the fic below, then head over to AO3 to read the rest. It's spicy, so minors DNI!

It becomes Tom’s sole responsibility in that moment to fix this glaringly obvious problem.

There’s a little work that goes into the whole thing – while Tom understands himself and his own sense of style, he’s still getting to know Greg. Tall isn’t a measurement that can be used to make someone a custom shirt. Which means there’s no way around being a little creepy to find out Greg’s size.

Of course, the odd touching and weird comments that make Greg bend over enough to see down the back of his shirt give Tom an opportunity to indulge the unchecked crush blossoming further by the day. Their weird connection upon first meeting (that Tom absolutely ruins in his hasty to overcome nerves and the funny feeling of love at first sight) lit something in Tom that’s refusing to putter out into the snuffed out thing it already is. Or, well, should be.

So, Tom indulges himself while collecting the needed data to fulfill his task. After he gets the numerical information, Tom does nothing to stop himself from continuing the arm grazes and long looks. He’s so used to it by now that it’s too big of a burden to even consider. It’s not like Greg does anything about it, anyway. In fact, Tom is almost positive that Greg moves into his touch. Or maybe that’s just the wishful thinking Tom can’t allow himself to put to rest.

Either way, the indulging does not stop.

When the shirt eventually comes in, Tom thanks his tailor for the last minute addition – his usual order is pristine as always, earning Leon a nice tip. Tom can’t wait until he’s home to take a peek at his commission and isn’t disappointed with the result.

The black of the shirt is deep and dark, beautiful because of its shadowlike nature. Tom’s thumb stopped on the example tab while flipping through the palette book thoughtlessly, like the thought of black enhancing the paleness of Greg’s creamy skin is an everyday thing. Sadly, it probably is.

Either way, Tom is happy to note the buttons are thick and durable, even at the cuff. Greg is a clumsy nuisance who’s like Bambi on ice at his best. Providing him with a garment that’s both pretty and made to last is Tom’s way of showing care. He hopes to see the soft, obviously high quality fabric of this shirt for a long time to come.

He’s meticulous in the way he packs it later that night. It came in a nondescript black box but Tom is hoping to impress. He buys a fancy gift box and folds it like he’s seen his own shirts a billion times before. It looks professional and classy – just like the man Tom wants Greg to be.

Despite being stoked about researching for and buying the gift, Tom can’t stand the thought of being there when Greg opens it up. He’s got this stealth plan that frees him from having to experience Greg’s reaction first hand. It’s so good, the plan that is, that Tom is cheery and upbeat throughout the entire day. People give him a wide birth but that’s just as well – not having to mop up other people’s bullshit adds a yummy cherry on top to a pretty good day.

After waiting until he’s almost certain everyone is gone, Tom sets things in motion. He sends a text to Greg about getting him a coffee for the road. When he hears the squeak of Greg retreating to do Tom’s bidding (just like the very good boy that he is,) Tom pulls out the box and makes quick work of putting it on Greg’s desk.

He’s seconds away from being in the clear when the intoxicating sent of tobacco infiltrates Tom’s senses. Greg is back and Tom is still there, lingering around Greg’s desk. The perfect day is quickly flying downhill at a terrifying speed. There’s nothing he can do to salvage the situation, so Tom does his best asshole impression, instead.

“Took you long enough, Gregory,” Tom says, turning around to snatch a nonexistent coffee cup from Greg’s hands. “What happened? Where’s my coffee?” The exasperation in his voice is real, though it’s not Greg’s fault.

It is a convenient excuse, however.

Greg looks flabbergasted, stuck between staring at Tom, his empty hand, and the obviously out of place box amongst his things. Tom, because he’s close to a breakdown already, is having a hard time not laughing it all. Karma is speaking loudly to him now, heckling Tom ruthlessly for his attempt at being a good person.

Thankfully, Greg’s broken up speech brings Tom back from the edge of a very embarrassing spiral.

“I uh – what’s that?” Greg asks, bypassing all of Tom’s questions in favor of honing in on something shiny and new. It’s the exact reaction that Tom wants, though there’s mixed feelings churning in his gut because he’s here to see it. His imaginings aren’t nearly as good as the real thing – that spells trouble for Tom, he can already tell. Being here, seeing this – Tom’s not sure he can recover.

Read the rest on AO3!

A Heart full of love Chapter Two

Title: A heart full of love

Henry Cavill x Georgina Biswell

@jolly-polly @kebabgirl67 @themanfromu @endofalldays01 @greensleeves888 @starstruckkittyangel @luclittlepond @agniavateira @thelastsock @myloveforhenrycavill @eldarwen333 @everleigh44 @libbymouse @needmorereading @marytudorbrandon @amberangel112 @cynic-spirit @cherry-gemz @enchantedbytomandhenry @wheretheriversrunintothesea @dedicated-to-mr-cavill etc.

*****************************************************************

Evidently Georgina was confused by the whole ordeal, Poppy Granger wasn't particularly high maintenance but Jack Wyatt some to worship the ground she walks on, whilst in the throes of this newly engaged woman love affair which she terribly for her (of course she was) she just wasn't that into rushing to relationships for the sake rushing into them, like poppy did with Jack. 

Jack Wyatt was a lawyer in criminal law and so he spent a lot of his time fighting criminal cases, some Good some bad, " you have to bring a plus one to the wedding"! Poppy laughed lightly as they sat in her flat discussing the wedding plans, Jack knew how Poppy could be sometimes and he loved her for it though feeling a like groomzilla at the minute, " half of my best men don't know what colour they want their ties to be despite me telling them scheme"! Jack moaned, which was poppy, " Haha you're having problems, what about me I'm wearing a flippin dress and you're acting like your bride"! Jack frowned at her with a smile and wink, " No my love that's clearly you"!Jack again turned to Georgie and replied " you don't have to bring a plus one you know popps joking aren't you love"? Poppy looked at Jack with a what do you think kind of look, Poppy wanted to see her friend happy but she knew how Georgie was. 

" Seriously though if you want to that is …. It was obvious who had to have me as my maid of honour…. You"! Poppy beamed. 

The sound of Jack's iphone vibrates with a message, when he looked at it he went out to take the call.

" so! Don't you want to see your dress for the wedding"? Poppy beamed.

Georgie clapped her hands ....

" of course"! Georgina beamed with a smile.

Georgia's mouth fell open, " oh wow that's beautiful"! She preened ar the style of dress, poppy was beaming " I knew you liked it"! Poppy was never normally the high maintenance type but for this wedding.... she was all over it.

When Georgina looked up at watch, she relieased that she had rush back to get Frodo walked.

" I'm going to rush off in a bit... got to walk Frodo he gets techie if I don't"! Georgie smiled at Poppy.

" Yeah I know Winters just the same"! Came her reply.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

It was half 2 when she felt poppy and Jack's house, now she had to walk the half hour home. Georgia's head was pounding about the wedding how Poppy wanted to see her with a plus one though she reassured her it was a joke.

Walking home she cut along the South bank and though Hyde park as she lived in Kensington.

It was the middle of winter, and the nights were drawing in so she guessed she'd better walk Frodo her usual route he got upset if she changed it for some reason.

Apart from the awful nightmare relationship with Greg Windsor she had not dated anyone since, georgie was quite happy being her own boss though her mum Helena kept onto her that she had to find someone or she would despair of her.

It wasn't all that easy just to meet someone out of the  blue especially your idol, a man she idolized for his work a man she admired.... the man that had nightly haunted ber dreams every night just as he had done the night before. She dreamt she was talking to him though she couldn't remember where though.

Greg Windsor was a finance and as is his father Simon, well step father.

Greg windsor on Georgina and when simon found out he gave greg a earful saying rather demanding that he apologise to her.

Life had been different without him eversince she did mot want anyone else after greg fearing that all men were the same.

Running upstairs to the apartment, she opened the door and Frodo greeted her with a jumps and barks.

" hey bud! Shall we go out now hmm"? Georgie smiled grabbing his lead from the back of the door. Bending down she attached the lead to his collar and ofctbry headed to Hyde Park.

I can see where Linkara's coming from and I think he has a point. For example: while I know it only by reputation, I have zero interest in reading in the New 52 Wonder Woman series since DC decided to turn the Amazons into bloodthirsty men-enslaving r*pists, changed Wondy into Frank Castle by way of GOW's Kratos (but with boobs) and had her be another one of Zeus's (many) kids. The series sold like hotcakes and still remains the bestselling Wonder Woman series of all time. So much so that (I guess) higher-ups forced Patty Jenkins to use the "Diana is Zeus's daughter" twist in the Wonder Woman film. And even if DC keeps changing her origin, I'm still no fan of the New 52 origin. But at least we have the phenomenal George Perez, Gail Simone and Greg Rucka runs. What I'm saying is that even if a popular character had a disliked run, it doesn't ruin the great stories that came before.

I also think Dan Slott's right as well. To make a point: ever since Cass Cain turned evil in Robin: One Year Later, many fans have held every single Cass-starred storyline to ridiculous standards. For example: when ever Cass lost a fight, they would call it "having her job" and "ruining her"; when Cass's characterization wasn't "perfect", they accused the writers of "destroying her"; if she took a backseat to Bruce or any other BatFam member, they claimed the writers were "trying to erasing her". And then there was the Batgirls series (which fun and awesome BTW) and oh boy, they did EVERYTHING to make it look like the "worst thing ever!" They claimed the series "infantilized Cass" because she and Steph were portrayed as more younger then they actually were or whenever Cass and Steph shared an intimate moment, they immediately accused the series of "queerbaiting". There's much more I could mention but no matter, these fans weren't "critiquing" Batgirls at all. They were deliberately hate-reading it!

The very same hate-reading happened when, after the infamous One More Day storyline, Dan Slott took up the Spider-Man series to write a silver-age-esque, character-defining run. Fans would cherry-picked stuff-completely out of context- to prove Slott "hated Mary Jane", "saw modelling as an inferior job", "created Silk/Cindy Moon as a hypersexualized, submissive Asian girlfriend" but the most sever claim was that he "had Dok Ock (in the body of Peter Parker) r*pe Mary Jane"*.

*In actuality, Otto never got a chance to sleep with MJ. Instead, he formed a close, consensual relationship with Anna Maria Marconi.

These fans hated Dan Slott, not as writer, but as a person. Their own hardcore vendetta against Slott could be seen as they called him a "misogynist", "pervert", "racist", "fascist sympathizer", "garbage fire of a human being" and more. In fact, the biggest reason they hated Slott was because (I think) they convinced themselves that Slott co-wrote/ghostwrote the majority of One More Day and in turn was responsible for ending Peter and MJ's marriage*. *Yes, this is utterly stupid.

Everyone has a right to like or dislike a story but seeing these fans declare Dan Slott's Spider-Man run, Tynion and Snyder's Batman/Detective Comics runs, Batgirls and others as "Irredeemable Media"....all because of a few bad storylines that happened years ago?

That's just awful and idiotic.

Dan Slott tweeted that comic characters can't be ruined because they're ironic and bad stories will be forgotten or retcon in a few years. I've stopped reading some comics because of really bad stories that stuck me wrong. Am I just being petty?

Not at all and he's wrong. Sometimes bad stories linger and redefine a character. Most people WANT to have these stories forgotten or retconned, but tons don't have that happen or bad creative decisions are held up by other creators because they agree with it or editors agree with it or etc. And sometimes there are just some creative decisions that you can't just reverse and go back on because it hurts too much regardless of what they've done since then.

Force my Muse to Spill their Secrets

🌧- For a heavy, emotional secret

Greg still can’t cope with the loss of Rose/Pink. He takes hours every night to think about everything to himself, to try and comprehend why his life went the way he did. He wouldn’t trade Steven for anything in the world, yes, but dammit he misses Rose so much...the realization she was Pink Diamond on top of all this makes it all the harder for him to understand. Saying his mind’s a battlefield is an understatement.

We are the Crystal gems~💓🎶

{So I don't see a lot of these and so I thought why not}

everyone is gender-bent except Steven

Enjoy~!

Warnings: Flirting and tooth rotting fluffs

for all

VERY LONG!!!

Human version

(but your human not Pearl)

Pearl 🐦

* So after Rose he thought he couldn't love anyone

* But then he met you and his whole life changed

Fem readers:

^ He met you at his favorite tree the cherry blossom tree

^ If you have long hair he will braid it and put flowers in it

^ If you have short like pixie cut or just short hair in general he will still play with it

^ He does get jealous but only because he doesn't wanna lose you like he lost Rose to Gabby (female Greg)

^ He makes sure your healthy 24/7

^ If your chubby man's won't care all that matters is if your healthy

^ plus he can lift like 1,000 pounds (maybe more) you weight nothing to him

^ He likes your plushy figure ^w^

^ If your curvy it still won't matter

^ Bigger bust he'll help with rubbing your back after a long day

^ And if your bras snap he'll buy you more (if he can figure that stuff out but its pearl)

^ If your a mom and have a kid he'll welcome them with open arms

^ I mean he took care of Steven so

^ and he'll love you even more if you treated Steven as your own

^ Kinda flat still won't matter to him

^ If your muscular it still won't matter to him he loves you for you but please pick this man up hake him flustered and feel loved~

Male readers:

^ Its canon that pearl is lesbian and in the gender-bent hes gay

^ but my pearl is pan-sexual

^ He'll love you like Rose but will remember that your not Rose but still forgets (give him time)

^ If your slightly chubby it won't matter to him same with the females

^ If you ever wanted to get fit tho he will help and encourage you to

^ makes sure your healthy

^ if your more slimmer like his shape he will still love you body doesn't matter

^ And if your really muscular and kinda intimidating, he'll link your arms together and walk on the beach

Non-bi

He will treat you the same just using differnt pronouns (I also cant think of anything else and Its 8:03 and I've been up sense 10pm yesterday) also if anyone misgenders you he will be really salty like a whole ass thing of salt

Flirting~~:

So pearl never really experienced flirting from other people other that Rose but, Rose went with Gabby and he kinda got left behind.

So if your female and taller than him go up to him and trap him in marshmallow haven (aka boobs) he will have a nose bleed (if gems can do that) if your a man and you got man boobs same thing

If you don't have boobs and are the same height do this (same if your tall)

If your shorter than him give him gifts unless you can do the first 2 spend time with this man he has not had this type of affection since Rose.

If your chubby lift him up I think pearl doesn't weigh much but I think they can fluctuate their weight but your strong so pick him up bridal style

Just love him he really needs it

{I hope you all love this because it took me a little while to write this considering I'm busy a lot so if you do like this likes and re-blogs are welcome comments to, and also feel free to request anons are on}
