A crazy thing about Mouthwashing is that Pony Express lost communication with one of its freighters for months and didn’t send anyone to check.

A genuinely reputable company, or at the very least a decent one, would have sent someone, something out to check after about two weeks of silence. Two months is when the crew start questioning if they are even being looked for which implies they were already expecting it to take a while cause P.E just doesn’t care.

They don’t care about who they hire. They don’t care about the conditions they place their crew in or how safe the safety measures actually are. They just don’t care, made rules and regulations so they can care less and succeed in getting away with it with how little those ideas are discussed.

#back on remembering how little blame we give P.E very the real organizational problems that led to the interpersonal ones #there’s many facets to talk about MW in but it’s that people really down play the working class factor and that everyone on the ship are no #too far off from each other and you have to incorporate that into how things play out like the false prestige of being captain and curly #exudes creates this inflated idea he had unlimited capabilities to do much more when it’s clear he is ruled by the same restrictions just a #a slightly different angle same way Swansea as the mechanic can’t fix a vent not because it’s likely difficult but because he just lacks th #rescources and constant clearances needed so it’s a stagnant task #same way even when Anya gets to do nurse stuff it’s limited by what she is given #it’s all reflective about what they have to work with not being enough not even being barely enough #both on an aspect of actual tangible problems and subjective issues #something something boss makes a dollar the crew makes a dime curly makes a quarter and they all still struggle to stay above water #idk it’s very important and interesting and more tragic to me that they were all in the same bubble but their perceptions of each other and #priorities made them walk each other off and feel levels of resentment that should have been towards P.E like how Curly mainly resents them #but the others clearly take it to a more personal level like he got fired with them #is at the same point of starting over with nothing cause all his experience is worthless in a dying job field and all he got was papers tha #say he’s great at a role no one wants except for the one guy that forced him to exit #all of it for nothing all those years for nothing and he didn’t get to choose #I think it’s interesting that people assume curly got what he wanted when he wanted a choice in his future to continue as is or change just #because they feed so heavily into the birthday argument where a projecting Jimmy says Curly got what he wanted when curly corrects him ther #saying what he wanted was a life he didn’t have to escape from being forced out of something isn’t escape if you have no where to go or #everyone got to kinda make a choice whether we consider Jimmy crashing the ship or Anya telling Jimmy and later killing herself #curly being trapped feels so minimal cause it’s hard to recognize how he’s caged in by being the in between of the head and the crew he can #move freely through either as he has the power of boss to them and subordinate to the other he has to do what the company says to an extent #and hopefully mitigate anything the crew might do and the ‘perks’ of being captain are just different leashes he’s on with the crew and P.E #it’s like so hard to understand when you aren’t used to working in these type environments or have been in similar organizational power #structures but the crew being on the same sort of economic scale and class is so important to why and how they act the way they do #mouthwashing #mouthwashing game #pony express #curly mouthwashing #captain curly

Concept: Copia telling Aether about how his oldest brother, Primo, once punched a panda, and it plays out like when MeatCanyon told Wendigoon about his Grandpa Ernest and Roger the Hunting Dog

#iykyk #the band ghost #Copia #aether ghoul #shitghosting #I woke up at 5:30am with this on my brainium and let me tell you: nothing I dreamt about had anything to do with Ghost or Creep Cast #I’m not sure who Copia would call to assure it wasn’t a big deal #probably Terzo honestly??#or Psaltarian #Terzo would probably be the most expressive of ‘It WAS a big deal we were supposed to be at the zoo for your birthday and now we’re banned!#the real reason Primo retired #‘We retired his ass. he’s done.’#‘wait so it wasn’t the result of a mental break?’#and Psaltarian is like ‘Oh no he definitely punched that panda for a quick buck. he left that zoo with money he didn’t enter it with.’

literally a broken record atp but god, what a good episode. Eddie's storyline got so much care and love put into it, clearly. Hen's storyline was amazing and tense and sweet. Archie was a compelling side character.

#am I just easily pleased or has every episode been a hit.....or at least had a super compelling storyline or multiple...........#eddie dadding up ughhhhh I love his regained confidence #Hen using the birthday girl card to handle a kidnapper WHO ELSE IS DOING IT LIKE HENRIETTA WILSON????#I liked how Helena and Ramon were like minor obstacles in Eddie's story #but it was mainly a story about him !!! and finding his voice #it's not over yet obviously but god. I have nothing but good things to say about how they're writing Eddie rebuilding himself bit by bit #yay !!!!!!!#911 spoilers #911

the interpretation that the birthday mentioned here was in 1999 gets even more painful when the end of 1998 was when the only thing he was proud of and successful at was failing....

#his life hitting rock bottom again... and then the twins were born #and then some hippie hoisted a damn baby goat on him that he had to make sure didnt get eaten by monsters #and then some kid wandered in the moment he fired the worst handyman ever #of course i dont think the idea of that birthday being the summer before the show is too far fetched #cos soos definitely doesnt know stan's birthdate and stan seemed determined not to admit its his bday #anyway for 20 years the only company stan had being that weird axolotl that ford left behind #which isnt visible half the time and completely disappeared soon after the kids came over for the summer #it doing nothing but swimming and going :0 but stan getting a new tank for it anyway #only to match the rest of his tv room he probably insists

give me like 2 seconds and ill shut up abt this sam plsspslslslnfndksls

what i really like abt this design is the fact that it REALLY reflects that he's a band, kinda punk guy but he's the friendly goofy kind of punk... his piercings add more emphasis to it. i wasnt entirely the biggest fan of his pointed hair because it felt a little out of place and unnatural (anime-ish) compared to everyone else. (if his hair looked more like kent's then that's fine for me) but this ... i know it kinda removed the hard spikes in his hair but in a way... i kinda like ... its still swept away like his og but it isn't forcefully pointing upwards. its like he used too much gel and its suiting LOL AHDBSHS its nicey.... the bandage is a nice touch because i imagine he fell over his skateboard a few times when he does his kickflips

BUUUUT OF COURSE THATS MY OPINION ‼️‼️ IDK‼️‼️ I NEVER PLAYED HIS HEART EVENTS SOOO UH BE NICE AMDNNDDND

#AND HERES ME COLLECTING BOYS LIKE DAEHO... DAISUKE /PLATONIC ... AND NOW SAM.... im im my sillay boy era HUURRRRGHHH #i genuinely started jumping around his tag and i was like nooo no hes really cute ggrlkrkrr #TO BE FAIR LIKE -- when 1.6 dropped i was AMAZED to see his winter sprite because he actually looked so fucking cute #and that was ittt....... no further comment #butttttt thisssssbdbddd wowowjwhehejeoeowoow #andhes a big brother tooooooo rereerrreeeeeeeeee big brothers r so. charming to me and i will keep falling for it.#IVE ALWAYS LIKED VINCENT AS WELL SO LIKE.... WAAAHHH put two things together and im cryigjg #vincent has the sweetest smile and the CUTEST BIG EYES I COULD PINCH HIM #i give him snails for his birthday :))))#i also remember he was my secret santa like twice or thrice before HAHAHA #so Vincent always had a soft place in my heart #but NOW his big BROTHER SAYS Hi AND I FEEL LIKE EXPLODING 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥#i don't think i ever talked abt my sdv opinions or thoughts... should do that more! ive been playing this game for years n i said nothing..#~ rambling #stardew hours #hang on why did i type a lot on this man its barely a day 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀#hes cute shutuopupppj #(btw abt his hair. i also vibe with how ppl give him mullets its cool!!!)#sam.rom

Day 66

@sparkvampweek Day 6: (I didn't follow the prompt, sry)

Apologies -- Drabble under the cut (~500 words)

--------------------------------------------------

Vampire paced around the upstairs bedroom for what felt like hours. His head was swimming with a frustrated mixture of feelings and what he speculated to be a light hangover. He'd barely seen Sparkling since the incident last night-- He couldn't even really remember what he'd said to make him upset.

Oh. Right. That. Vampire had stopped his pacing and was now pressing both of his hands against his temples before sliding his fingers through his hair. A short jolt of the panic he felt last night flashed through his body, running his jam cold. I really fucked up this time, didn't I? He had to say something. He couldn't bear this silent treatment. He went back and forth, back and forth once more before going to head downstairs.

The old steps of the house groaned quietly as Vampire made his way down slowly, timid to make any sudden sounds. He saw the light golden swath of his lover's hair peaking out from the back of his arm chair, already neatly combed. He snuck up behind him, taking a peak at what he was doing. It was a crossword, already mostly done.

Vampire took a deep breath.

"Hey, uh. About last night--"

"Don't worry about it." The sudden response took Vampire aback. "I made a big deal out of nothing."

"But you were right, I need to shut my big mouth." Vampire made his way to the arm of the chair and knelt down next to it so he could look at Sparkling. His face had the same calm expression he usually wore. "I upset you, that's a big deal to me--"

"Vampire, it's fine." He nearly spoke in a whisper. "I overreacted. You didn't deserve to get locked out, even if it was just for a moment." His voice shook slightly. He set the puzzle book down on his lap and sat forward so their eyes met. "I know how that sort of thing makes you feel, I shouldn't have done it. I'm sorry."

There was a short silence.

"I'm sorry, too." Vampire laid his chin on the arm rest. "And I mean it this time." He closed his eyes, and just barely audibly under his breath he whispered again, "I'm sorry."

Sparkling let out the breathe he felt he'd been holding since last night and smiled gently. "Let's just forget it even happened, okay?"

Vampire nodded. "Okay." He propped himself back up and made himself comfortable on the arm of the chair. He leaned in close, resting his head on Sparkling's. "Can I help you with your puzzle?"

Sparkling let out a short chuckle. "Sure. How about a five letter word for a colorful species of bird--"

"Parrot!"

"That's six letters."

"Oh."

"Try again."

#vampire cookie daily #cookie run #vampire cookie #sparkling cookie #sparkvamp #i felt kinda bad abt yesterday's post #I had to make it better #i'm also just absolutely garbage at thinking up aus #fic instead of comic bc i blew a fuse or smth drawing that last one like wow #i can't do that long of a comic daily #answer for the crossword is macaw btw #there *is* context for what vampire said that started this whole thing #but i can't post it here bc of my self imposed “no n.s.f.w even a lil bit” rule #this 'arc' if i wanna call it that came from a dumb impulse bonus comic i drew after sparkles' birthday #(had nothing to do with his birthday)

guys if he got a paper cut. i would fight the paper. does that make sense

#it astounds me how protective i am of him. not that im not protective of my f/os in general (im a plot punching bag liker :( sad)#but sometimes i sit here doing absolutely nothing and im hit by the knowledge that sylus has been alone for so long #and it makes me so angry like. he is SO NICE. FUCK YOU SOCIETY >:(#tbh i know why i find it so upsetting but still #i hate how alienated he was. i hate that they abandoned him for something he couldn't control i hate that he thought he had to be anything #other than himself just to be TOLERATED... makes me so mad...#anyway im happy the twins came into his life to melt his heart a little bit hdshgdhj :') im thankful they seem to adore him as much as i do #at least with the sheer amount of days they celebrate his birthday maybe one day they can make up for every day sylus never got to celebrate #im happy he has a little family that loves him this much. he deserves that #he deserves all the niceys in the world forever #ari.stuffs #tbd tag
