#(hardcore copium)

[perhapsiamaplant]

i told my therapist what kind of copium i’ve been smoking recently and instead of being like “well that’s normal” or “that’s better than other things you could be doing” sHE GOT SAD

I SAID “it’s pathetic” AND I DONT THINK SHE DISAGREED LIKE maybe she did and i forgot but STILL LIKE TELL ME MY NOT COMPLETELY UNHEALTHY COPING SKILL IS OKAY AND NOT SAD EVEN IF ITS PATHETIC

[kero-cure]

Ahhhhh...

I need copium...

And today I finally got it.

As you guys might already saw in previous post that I already have a big one. But what's wrong if I gonna have more of them? THAT'S NOT THE SAME, MOM! This is much chubbier and tinier Tiremeter nuis! Not like what did I already have!

Oh no! They're too happy because of how lovey dovey they are so Granutes turn them to an acrylic stand!

I'm not acrylic stand type of otaku but since Sunstar did a lower price campaign so I thought I had to get some.

Not only toku fandom. But the boys from Gundam too! Finally I can have their nuis to bring it with me when I go to Gundam event.

And... Lots of copium (aka doujinshi. One is Charmuro and six from... you knew lol)

Ah... I can continue living my life now. lmao.

My 2 favs beefing with each other :D

Confirmation that my boy is really fucking dead D:

The "best thing to happen to Kinger's lower half" is not foreshadowing, but a hint to his past in the circus. Hear me out.

So we all remember "Kinger's Special Place" and how those Checkmates socks (Plus Kinger "wearing" one of them) caused a lot of fans to worry over the fate of our beloved chess piece?

Yeah. The more I think about it, the more I feel like we're viewing all this from the completely wrong angle. This isn't telling us what WILL happen to Kinger...

It's telling us what ALREADY happened to Kinger and WHY he's the way he is now.

Gangle's supposed "Near-abstraction" moment in EP 4 made me think back to Kinger's core memory with his abstracted wife. He couldn't recall the exact string of events that lead up to it, but that moment in the fort where she calmed down enough for him to caress her was forever ingrained into his mind.

Maybe it's because said moment was what saved him from immediately following Queenie into abstraction--

"Erm, eckshualeeeee, when Gangle snapped back from abstracting, she didn't go insane like Kinger. Theory debunked along with your Stupid sauce scandal idea."

Well, yeah. Because she was just starting to abstract before Pomni offered to switch shifts with her. Meanwhile, I think Kinger was already deep into abstracting before ending up in the pillow fort with Queenie.

This silly image of Keychain!Kinger wearing the Queenie sock? It represents HOW CLOSE he was to completely breaking. He still managed to snap back, the absolute chad, but having been so near the brink of no return, the mental damage was already done and couldn't be reversed (much like how you can't come back from fully abstracting).

That's why Kinger's mind is so scrambled/fragmented present day.

Upon this recontextualization, so many things start adding up (at least for me).

Both his and Abstracted!Queenie's behavior follow the same patterns. Erratic and unpredictable in the light. Lucid and calm in the dark. This can most likely be applied to anyone else who abstracted too.

He can't recall the events between after Queenie abstracting and before he ended up in the pillow fort because he was probably HARDCORE dissociating.

He was more paranoid and unstable than usual after the Gloinks took apart his fortress because they robbed him of his ANCHOR.

And of course, all this can further explain how Kinger has managed to last in the circus longer than anyone else. DOI\I'T FORGET. YOU'RE HERE FOREVER.

...Orrrrr maybe I'm just on extreme hopium + copium over my favorite character and the checkmates socks are just comfy socks and nothing more. I AM the same person who concocted the crack-ass "Spudsy's Signature Special Sauce Scandal" theory, after all. XP

We'll just have to wait and se

OKAY SO what with the TWO new Hermits implied by the updated banner I will say that, though the Skizz truthers have me convinced, I now have room to do my own crazy red string monologue and throw my hat in for my choice

1) Mythical J. Sausage (the J is silent) is a multitalented S-tier builder that absolutely deserves to be shoulder to shoulder with the Hermits. The man does buildings, interiors, terraforming, custom trees, and he does them SO WELL.

2) The production values!!! Beautiful replay mod sequences with shifting camera perspectives, shaders, music that sets the tone for each segment that's different from series to series. He already has more than a million followers on YouTube and for good reason!!

3) He has been SO consistent lately. He started a hardcore world about three months ago (about the time you might expect the Hermits to finalize their s10 choices maybe...???) and already has 15 episodes and hasn't gotten involved in any other big content. (He did just start playing a little of the BCG server but from what I understand that's super casual /copium copium copium).

4) That hardcore world is conveniently about to reach a good "pause" point. He started his world on a cherry blossom biome island that he's filled with a medieval village and starter farms, he's said it's almost full and what's left is the castle. I'm guessing the new season will start the first week of February, so if Sausage puts out a video this week building out that Castle and finishing that island it will be MIGHTY CONVENIENT TIMING.

5) This man can GRIND. His Hardcore world hasn't even been going half a year and he's built... So much??? Magnificent! And when he was on the Hermitcraft server he did the Razorcrest for scar AND the player head baby yoda/stormtrooper merch AND the noteblock themesong AND still built in the xmas village and other "diamond of peace" and so many other shenanigans. Did the man even sleep? He can grind with the best of them.

6) He can do redstone, too! Maybe not unique designs, I honestly don't know, but he builds farms for build materials no problem.

7) The DRAMA this man loves his improv and his backstory and trauma lore! For every series he does! Can you imagine if he gets to interact with Ren for an extended period of time, what that would do to them, to us?? Give Martyn a run for his money!!

8) Which brings me to my next point, which is that Sausage is already One of The Gang, because he's been in series with so many of the Hermits already! Empires and the crossover, obviously, but also Pirates with Cleo and Origins with Scar, and he's even done MCC! Joel is the only other player with the same depth of different series but there are other people truthing him already.

9) The EPIC BROMANCE with Pearl. My god the devotion of this man to his sunflower goddess bestie. I would try to do ot justice but y'all have seen floweroflaurelins work, you already know.

10) He's already a PG streamer but with HILARIOUSLY PG-13 tendencies. Imagine him and Cleo cracking each other up at an HHH stream, *grips your shoulders* IMAGINE IT.

11) Sausage comes with his own mascot in the form of interdimensional dog extraordinaire Bubbles, but he's also just an animal lover on general. Mans drinks his "I love Jellie" juice and had her in his world even before the sad news of her loss.

12) Diversity win! No one should be hired just for their gender, race, sexuality etc etc unless it's truly necessary to the job, but we were all happy when more women got added to the server in s8 and I know a lot of people would be happy to see some ethnic diversity added, too.

... That bulletin board had a lot more pins in it than I thought it did but anyway MYTHICALSAUSAGE TRUTHERS/ALL OTHER TRUTHERS RISE UP SPEAK YOUR TRUTH! we'll only get to wildly speculate for a few weeks so we might as well make it everyone else's problem ENJOY IT TO THE FULLEST!!

I wanna get over it but I'm actually getting more and more upset the more time passes? I honestly don't want to be, but I feel like I'm grieving for the characters and the world I put my time and love into on most days of a decade now. Like, I really mean daily even if it's not been on Tumblr for the entire time.

For many of us, these characters found us during a really dark time and we don't call them our emotional support characters for nothing. And to have all that history so dismissively handwaved by the devs in their social media posts is actually hurtful as hell on a personal level...

(I get that 117 choices is insane and would take up an unreasonable amount of resources and limit storytelling. But I did expect 8 or 10, even if half of them just lead to codex entries. That would have been fine! I mostly expected that there wouldn't be choices from DAO and DA2 as well, but Inquisition?

How will they even give a throwaway mention to the Inquisitor's romance like they did for Hawke in dialogue in DAI, if you can't even select that Cass is Divine or Bull, Blackwall or Cullen are dead? You can't even say oh they're at home doing this and that. At best romances like Dorian or Josephine will get some content while others get none. At worst the romance choice input is actually just there to ask if you romanced Solas. Yes, I'm hella upset at that even as I am currently obsessed with Solavellan.)

Because most importantly this just makes the whole world of Thedas feel.. idk cold? Knowing that there is nothing to make it feel like we affected anything in the world so far and that so many of the characters we love will never appear again because they once gave us a choice involving them. Like, do I now need to hope I don't get any major choices for the new characters I fall in love with because that means they'll never bring them back again?? Better not get attached?? Is that really what you want to teach your players?

I don't have any hope that they are self-reflecting enough or care enough to do this, but maybe if the backlash is bad enough they'll start working on a patch that at least contains some codex entries and ambient voice lines? That's like my one piece of copium I can try to actually suspend disbelief for rn. Apparently I've entered the bargaining stage..

I've been hardcore hyping about Veilguard since 11 June (which happens to have been my birthday and like that was the best part of it for me) and I really don't want to feel this way, but I do and I don't know how to describe it other than I'm grieving.

This line currently feels immeasurably ironic...

I've been too busy to draw for the past little while but have this thing I made a little while back-

Charlie is In Denial that her dad and Adam are a thing. She is on that copium hardcore

[amberinn]

So since Acevi broke and cracked

o7 to the shippers

and Ace is now my wet little puddle soaked kitten

I need a copium Ace ship

PROBLEM!

Wait no... not problem moreso criteria

1. He's gay

This limits character ship pool to 6

1. Xander

2. Levi

3. Whit

4. Charles

5. David

6. Arturo

Problem?

Levi is a psychopath and doesn't mix well with Ace -1

Xander is malicious and doesn't mix well with Ace -1 (also broke his hand)

Whit and Charles are cutie patooties and do fit in with Ace well ^3^

I've just a bit of a pet peeve with shipping these 2 with anyone other than each other

That's not to say that I do not create content like that!

'm just not hardcore and lovey dovey about it... whoopz

It left me with David and Arturo tbh, and at this point I've been like thinking (damn the boypool is a fucker that's insane and tried killing 12 people and a bigot stalker (bigos mój artur))

but i think ive got it :3

Arturo is thinking about his dead sister in this one, timeline where they're like dating or so

Haha

Ace waking up to go do his job and giving Turo a mornin smooch

Idk the schedule of like, plastic surgeons but let's say it's free day for Arturo dw guys I played sims 4 i know you can have work on mon/wed/thu and none other day of the week

[diospore]

Okay considering those feet were Very FAMILIAR I HAVE to spout this insane theory now

MHA 425 spoilers

WHAT IF CLONE THEORY WAS RIGHT BUT FOR THE WRONG PERSON?

AFO wasn't the clone. Tomura Shigaraki was. His body as seen from a certain point onward wasn't his original, he was transferred into it

And now his consciousness has transferred into his ORIGINAL body!

God what if this one doesn't even have Decay!! Look he's touching the wall with all fingers and it's intact

Quirkless Shigaraki?

Ahdjfjfj I might be reaching Hardcore here

I know they said it's not someone we know but. Auuuuuuuugh. I'm on hardcore copium mode.

[fr-likes-chocolate]

My specific copium is that Phil and Fit left the island and went to another universe similar to ours and rented an apartment together (they made enough money by trading in weapons to a pawn shop or something) they currently are doing odd jobs as they try to find more suitable work.

Phil befriended two abandoned crow chicks that were in a nest near their apartment and Fit got a bearded dragon to care for.

And that is how they live out the rest of their days, it’s a good ending to them, quiet and peaceful compared to Quesadilla island or 2B2T or hardcore survival.

[miel-miette]

Hi im having gortash brain rot and thinking of a reverse au for durgetash. Like instead of durge being usurped, it was gortash. Orin takes his place to none the wiser of durge for a while.

So gortash as tav has hardcore amnesia and is travelling to Baldur’s gate to find out “hey wtf why is there a guy w my exact face and name??” N ofc durge is still the chosen of bhaal, and offers him an alliance again. The kidnapping still occurs w Orin tho.

Also, sadly he’d kill Karlach in a1 😔😔 he had to since she seemed to kno him n hate his guts!! This is probs when he begins to have an inkling into his past n that he probs wasn’t a good person at all.

Playing as him, like w durge, there can b a redeemed gortash. (Huffing copium bc I don’t want anything bad to happen to the tieflings EVER 🥺) He’s still a bit of an ass tho no matter what.

I also speculate in terms of romance, depending on route, he’d b into shadowheart, astarion, lae’zel or Minthara. The others r too “soft” for his taste.

[chelledoggo]

still huffing that copium hardcore so i made this meme to vent

[ultra-raging-ghost]

Based on the wording i LITERALLY CANNOT tell whether he means hes permanently leaving or not and i am IN DENIAL so if he is GOOD FOR HIM but if not ALSO GOOD FOR HIM im in hardcore denial im inhaling so much copium i wish him all the best on his future endeavors but guys im gonna be inhaling so much copium until like january i am NOT gonna be mourning on my birthday (which is around the same time he'll be streaming again)

[greaterspawnislands]

am i crazy with brainrot or was phil’s bedtime story to chayanne a child friendly/good ending version of s4 hardcore lore. like with the envious egg who wanted everyone’s things? was that not meant to be like the ender king. or am i just way too full of copium like. what.

[jams-sims]

Guys don't worry tomorrow, Philza gonna log on and he will grind this shit out like it hardcore mode. Hes gonna provide for his team, hes gonna feed them and rock them to bed. Hes gonna be father crow again its all gonna be okay tomorrow.
