Some people are all "Doflamingo is pure evil from the start", "he never cared for anyone", "he never really loved his brother, he was only using him, it's not like he cared for him nor anything like that".

Meanwhile, Doffy before and after killing his own brother:

The whorification is real with this one, just saying u.u

Not saying he was sane before, we know he very much wasn't, but judging by the change in his fashion sense, commiting fratricide against his last surviving family member really took its toll on him. He pretty much just went batshit crazy after that. Just look at him. Like, yes, his trausers were ridiculous since the begining, but he got much worst afterwards? XD Plus, he seems way more unhinged now than he did in his youth, he really lost it.

Okay, after rewatching Phineas and Ferb Across the Second Dimension, which came out in 2011, I need to know if the first Avengers movie- which came out in 2012- copied it, or if it was just a weird coincidence that both movies have an interdimensional portal with a seemingly endless evil army coming out of it set on the top of a weird looking building in the middle of a city that they have to fly up and close after a showdown with the villain?

Silly title from the gacha machine

I mostly wanted to see how the recent update patch was and probably just gonna get bronze or silver scales knowing this rng-

This game finally pulled me back into salmon run lol

@incendiums continued from here

To be defenestrated by their own experiments — how tedious. To be defenestrated by their own experiments, and then caught by someone who wouldn’t hold his tongue concerning his worries — how time consuming. But, Gregor did have a point, no matter how much Miriel was loath to admit it — no matter how much it discomforted them, this interruption. Sighing, the redhead pulled away from the mercenary’s touch, already overwhelmed enough without unwanted physical contact — friend or otherwise. “Loath as I am to do so, I must credit you with veracity.

“I am no use to anyone — least of all myself — if my own experiments and research injures me.” That being said, however… “But I must correct you, however, based upon an assumption you continue to make — and that I am made quite uncomfortable by.” The scientist didn’t try to force themself make eye contact, knowing that doing so would make the situation worse, but they did set their gaze just to the right of his; as they did so, they reached up to adjust their glasses. “I am not a woman, Gregor, and I would appreciate if you did not address me as such.”

Brusque, but they wouldn’t stand for it.

SOME TIME LATER…

THEY SAW MY POST AND LISTENED TO ME????? :0

[datchscursedblog]

I'm seeing things.......

[codes-and-stuffs]

funniest thing about this parkour civ trend lately is i literally JUST heard about who seawatt is through an entirely unrelated rabbit hole days before people started talking about it here. i was like wtf is everyone seeing the same old youtube videos as me but no it was in fact completely different old youtube videos

[fantasticalchaos]

WDYM THE NEW TWST (JP) EVENT DROPPED TODAY??????

YALL I WAS JUST WATCHING SOME MONSTER HIGH MOVIES YESTERDAY WHAT TIMING

[mitamicah]

1,2,10 for the soft asks! <33 (idk if you’ve been asked these before)

I got 2 and 10 before but that's okay I still appreciate all of these 🥺💚

1- what song makes you feel better? - rn it is obvious; play Cha Cha Cha (or maybe just any Käärijä song) and I cannot help but smile 90% of the time :'3 (the last ten is when I am really down and I don't give myself permission to feel joy basically :'D)

2- What's your feel good movie? - you know what? Maybe I should actually reply to this instead of making it into a question about my feel good show like last time x'D Hmmmm... I do not tend to watch a lot of movies more than once tbh :'D I guess maybe Spirit: Stalion of the Cimarron? it was a childhood favourite and because of that I can still to this day all the songs by heart and feel the adrennalin of the opening sequence :'D

10- what's something you're excited for? - last time I mentioned my summer camp (context for what that even is here) so I'll say I am excited for August 8 - why? because that is when a group of doctors, nurses and other health professionals will decide if I can start testosterone :'D

thank you for the questions ^V^ 💚

Is it ever stated that Eggman Nega converted the inhabitants of Onyx Island into cards before the events of Rivals? The place has a non-abandoned theme park so it has to have SOME sort of inhabitants right?

As far as I know, it has not; it's not even officially confirmed whether Eggman Nega stole the camera or created it himself (though, Silver going "How'd he get his hands on it?!" heavily implies if not outright confirms the former). As for Sky Park Zone, I myself always figured it was supposed to be Carnival Night Zone in the future. Since Knuckles also was the only inhabitant of Angel Island and nothing points towards Eggman having built that Zone as fas as I am aware, I don't think it's too odd for Sky Park Zone to still be mostly abandoned in the future. But then in the same vein, Death Yard Zone is a large polluted industrial area for which I can find no clear counterpart in the Zones from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. So that does indicate to me there have at least been people active on Onyx Island, but considering the constructions of Death Yard Zone are rusted and falling apart, they seem to have left long ago as well? I figure it wasn't a prompt evacuation out of fear for Eggman Nega if the infrastructure is breaking down so badly.

So it's somewhat inconclusive if Onyx Island has inhabitants or not in the first place; personally, though it is clear some advances have happened on it, I would say the island could have gone through an abandonment in the past and it is now deserted. And regarding the cards, Eggman Nega clearly went ham trapping things of the past into them... to a nonsensical degree, because said things trapped in the cards include our very heroes, basically the entire extended cast, multiple variants of them, the Chaos Emeralds, dead people, MARIA GETTING SHOT, the other occasional literal screenshot from an earlier game, and so on. So clearly those are not meant to be taken too literally! But whether or not he captured people from the future in them is never stated or shown, nor can any such card be collected. I myself always envisioned Onyx Island as empty and abandoned, so I think the only thing he could reasonably take a picture of was the Master Emerald. But if there was still anyone on the island who could stand in his way (and wasn't Silver), I'm certain he would not have hesitated to trap them in a card as well!

*clears throat* ...soo I have nothing in my defense other than that I love this story so much I just had to draw my favorite scenes....and at some point it kinda escalated and grew bigger than I initially had planned...

....i ah, i just had to 😅

Ah and I advise to click for a better quality

and a bonus because these guys live rent free inside my head:

uhh...

fun fact: sky's color on Mars is the opposite of what we have on Earth: the normal colors during day are shades of orange, while sunsets are blue

oh great I'm looking for a photo of blue sunset and of course the first one here was made by Spirit. Yeah there are no coincidences

so I've recently stumbled upon this post ...and I don't know why, but now I headcanon Curiosity to be a singer. Like it is (if I remember correctly) her hobby and she has a talent for singing, and she very much enjoys it - maybe because the humans were celebrating with her while she was just a robot -what if she remembers it?-

also a not transformers, but there is Opportunity rover here and I thought you might enjoy it :> A short story with Opportunity

*scuttles back to the cave*

You know the book/movie The Martian? What if that happened in the Earth and Unicron Au? A NASA mission gone wrong gets an astronaut stranded on Mars' surface with no way home or even to communicate with Earth, at least those with NASA, not Earth herself. Would Mars want to help or hinder this poor lost soul that just wanted to go home? I'm pretty sure Earth wouldn't appreciate that one of her children died on Mars and he could have prevented it. Though if I'm being honest, with how Mars' citizens died, I doubt he would try to get the little fleshy killed.

A quick little fic was required for this ask.

━━━━━━ ⊙ ❖ ⊙ ━━━━━━━━━━━━

Being the first astronaut to be sent to Mars should have been an honor, an accomplishment just as great as the Moon landing. But Gabriel always knew deep down that something was bound to go wrong. Something  always went wrong. The Russians sent dogs into space first for a reason. NASA however didn’t seem to care as much for human life now that they supposedly had space travel down. They wanted someone on Mars before China could get a man up there, and they were willing to go to any lengths to do so.

Gabriel wasn’t the first pick for the Mars mission. There had been two others chosen before him, but Abigail Knight had dropped out of the running for unknown reasons. Her runner up, Horace Gail, had been removed from the mission after he was discovered drugged to high heavens in his apartment a few weeks before he was meant to get on the rocket. That left Gabriel, the only other astronaut who actually knew the controls and went through the year-long preparation program to get used to living on Mars via simulation. 

He wasn’t exactly thrilled to be given the mission. Sure, he always wanted to travel to other worlds, but going with a crew that hadn’t run the simulation just felt risky. Personally, he would have preferred to dog out of the mission entirely and let the honor of first landing go to another astronaut if it meant he’d have a fully trained crew with him.

But again, NASA really wanted their man on Mars. So despite the risks, Gabriel found himself suited up, strapped into the rocket, and thrown into space. It was surreal. And quite frankly, the trip went far faster than he expected. Supposedly the science guys on the ground had made some sort of breakthrough that allowed for short range ‘skips’ as they called them. The shuttle would have momentary bursts of speed that allowed it to skip over huge portions of space without burning excess fuel. There was a lot of science involved, and Gabriel liked to think he knew his tech, but looking at the engines, he didn’t know what the hell was going on.

Strange blue liquid powered the whole thing. He was told not to touch it, and he obeyed without question. None of the crew knew what it was, or what all the strange ‘skips’ were about. But of course, NASA’s mission came first. So Gabriel wasn’t given time to question. The moment they were within range of Mars, a message was sent back and Gabriel was loaded up with an American flag and the express mission of getting to the surface in one piece and plopping it down. The looks he got from the crew indicated they really didn’t care if he made it back or not.

Very comforting indeed. This was why he would have preferred a team who’d run the simulation.

“Ready Gabriel?” The woman in the control room spoke through Gabriel’s in-built communicator as he stood before the hatch leading to the void outside. He sighed before replying.

“Ready. Let’s get this show on the road.” The woman laughed over the link. Gabriel never bothered to learn her name. It would have been nice to know now that he thought about it.

No time for regrets. His grand mark on humanity’s history was before him.

“Good luck! Doors opening in 3, 2, 1-” The woman’s voice was cut off as the hatch opened. Gabriel expected the rapid pull into space as the hatch decompressed, but it was still startling to be dragged toward the surface of Mars by the drone NASA assigned. Once upon a time, Astronauts got to the surface in pods. But in an attempt to save resources or something along those lines, now drones were the way forward.

Gabriel patiently endured his descent to the planet’s surface, his suit absorbing the worst of the shock as he adjusted to the gravity. He made a show of his first few steps, knowing the crew was watching from above. He planted the flag, repeated his scripted words, and then looked back up to the ship. He activated the link, trying to signal for pickup. All he got in return was static.

“Hey, console lady, what the hell is going on up there? I’m ready for pickup already.” Gabriel hit his communicator again, but no matter how hard he tried to get the signal through, he got nothing back. He watched on in growing horror as the shuttle hovered above him, and then slowly, its thrusters activated.

“Wait! Hold on! I’m still down here!” He screamed, not caring if his oxygen levels were in peril or not as he tried to wave his arms. Something had to have gone wrong. System failure perhaps? They couldn’t be leaving him. That wasn’t part of the simulation or NASA’s plan.

No response. The shuttle sped off, ‘skipping’ into the distance. Gabriel felt cold dread settle in his very soul. He ran through a thousand reasons why something might have gone wrong or why they might have been leaving him, but in the end, after about an hour of warring with himself… he knew the reason.

He was the dog sent into space. He was NASA’s little test to see if travel was safe and possible. They were leaving him behind. 

Gabriel cursed, he screamed, uncaring of how much oxygen he had left. He was going to die. He’d been left to rot on a world so far from home that Earth was practically a blimp in the distance. After everything he’d done in his life, this was how it was all going to end.

Alone.

Abandoned.

Why did the world despise him so-

���Hello!” Gabriel froze in his lamentations. He stood up from where he was seated on the ground sorrowfully regretting everything and looked around. There wasn’t a person, but there was… a rover?

“You look rather lost! Dad sent me out to see if I can help! Aunty is quite upset about this whole mess!” The rover was green, a rather bright hue. Its light glowed red, highly unusual. Gabriel didn’t recognize it, at least not at first. But soon enough, he began to remember the design. The rover was an old model, one of the ones sent out in the early 2000s. The paint was different, and last he recalled, the rover didn’t have any pre-recorded voice lines. But he knew this model, and it was clearly the one and only Spirit.

“Sheesh, you are going to run out of air at this rate! Let’s get you inside until Aunty can get Uncle Moon to send someone out to get you!” The rover rolled closer, prompting Gabriel to step back instinctually. He didn’t have time to run before the rover changed. Its wheels compacted, its entire frame contorted in a series of swift and smooth motion. In an instant, he found himself dwarfed by some type of robot, one which smiled down at him with bright red eyes, eager perhaps.  Gabriel knew for a fact NASA would have never let something like this rot out on Mars. It had to be something new, something strange and potentially dangerous.

“Oh hell no-!” He attempts to run, but the former rover grabbed him before he could and held him gently, almost like a precious stone. Gabriel was too startled to fight as the thing he knew to be Spirit quickly began walking with him in hand.

“Don’t be scared little guy! Dad will get this all sorted out!” Spirit smiled gleefully, its voice ringing out deeply but strangely like a child. Gabriel couldn’t speak, not as he saw more of the robotic beings approaching. There were seven others, and one by one, he noted their designs.

Sojourner, Marie Curie, Curiosity, Opportunity, the chinese model, and a few others. Each walked on two legs, each smiled, and each and every one of them regarded Gabriel with childlike interest. 

“Dad! We got him!” The rover held Gabriel up, grinning ear to ear, not that it had ears. Gabriel for his part screamed as the ground shifted like some sort of hangar bay, revealing a passage down into the very ground. He floundered as all the rovers walked into the passage, not at all afraid. Spirit soothed Gabriel with a few hushed words.

“Shh… Uncle Moon will send a drone to get you soon. You can stay with him and his colony until Auntie figures out how to get you back without trouble! So don’t worry Cousin! Everything is going to be alright!” Gabriel gawked as he was carried into the passage. He had no words, all he could do was stare in awe as something straight out of a sci-fi film played out before him.

“Mars, is he well?”

“Yes Earth, your explorer is safe. My little ones are keeping him company.”

“Good. Take care of him for me. I will try to reach out to Primus’s chosen to see if he might aid me.”

“Of course.”
