#A manipulative idiot

[wetsocksinbed]

me forcing my Rook to blindly trust and defend Solas knowing full well he’s manipulating me but I’m a Solavellan girlie at heart and will redeem him no matter what

not a big fan of people calling asa an idiot for getting manipulated by yoru... she's in an extremely precarious state, and the person who's been next to her (literally inside her actually) for months is obviously going to have the edge when it comes to tricking her. and yoru does care for asa in her own way; but like... yoru's worldview, wants and needs r so incredibly foreign to asa that neither of them can understand each other. yoru parrots, "you want to save denji don't you?" but she can't quite get why asa cares for denji. yoru's closest equivalent to what denji is to asa are her children, who she ends up weaponising to fight pochita.

meanwhile, asa has never really seen yoru at her worst like this before. there's a part of her that's probably remembering yoru being vulnerable with her on her bed or in the bathtub together.. she's not capable of compartmentalising these different facets of yoru. that's not to mention how asa has literally given up any chance she has at a future to pursue hers and yoru's goals... ofc she's going to keep hoping until the last moment that yoru has her back! literally what else does she have?

I really don't care how much some of y'all say that Feyre destroying Tamlin's court was a baddie move IT MOST DEFINITELY WAS NOT.

1. It broke the very first line of defence for Prythian!!!! Like completely rendering them naked to the crazy human queens and therefore Hybern.

2. Beron was now one of the ultimate next High Lords on map after Spring court when he obviously was a greedy, old bastard and could most definitely flip the coins on Prythian.

3. She manipulated her way into the court and even into the innocent sentries minds! MANIPULATION IS NOT HOT OR BADASS GET HELP-

"I made my move. Slid my power into the bound sentry’s mind and freed the memory I’d coiled up tightly in his head—freed his tongue, too."

4. She actively set invisible snares in Tamlin's house before acting like a little weasel and then destroying Tamlin's and Lucien's friendship by bringing the seed of doubt between them when they were both already struggling. SHE USED MAH BOY LUCIEN AND EVEN INVADED HIS PRIVACY LATER BY READING HIS MIND!!!

5. The countless... already refugee faeries that were now displaced because of her petty revenge which was not a cool move. According to me this was the biggest reason for me to hate this weird plan of hers in the first place! Get help Feyre you left some of them completely exposed to the possible Hybern attacks.

Say what you will but I think Feyre is no truth teller for exposing Tamlin or that snake Ianthe, she is a manipulator. And that would have been fine if she did it with clear intentions but acts committed out of vice are never right.

Lydia: How long have you been dating Derek?

Stiles: A couple of months.

Derek (fake smiling): Darling, that was supposed to be a secret.

Stiles: How did you manage to get into my head, you manipulative witch?

Lydia: I barely did anything.

Finley’s destined partner finally dies and everything should line up for them to be in heaven together forever except his mate ends up in hell because of Finley’s actions and even worse some demon is getting real cozy with them down there.

Haha this ask totally reminded me of these endings I thought of a while back:

MC becomes an angel -- Finley (yandere angel) kills Tynan.

MC becomes a demon -- Tynan (yandere demon) kills Finley.

Finley and Tynan defy fate, instead bringing MC to purgatory so they can be with MC forever and ever and ever

(yeah, these two are from the same universe <3)

I feel like this would be a really fun VN to make some day!! I just need to amp up my coding abilities lolol

Anyway, I lowkey forgot the lore I made for these two (oops). But I think it went something like... punishments and where a soul goes only happens at the end of a human's life. In this world, judgment isn't black and white, so if the good outweighs the bad, the soul goes to Heaven even if the human wasn't 100% good in their life (vice versa is also true). If the good and bad are balanced, the soul is sent to purgatory.

Finley, as an angel, wasn't always "good" per se, but he also protected MC from Tynan, an incubus, so his "good" actions outweighed his bad actions (+the intent behind his "bad" actions was always "good" which adds a layer of complexity). So, he may be let off with a lighter punishment when they weigh his "good" and "bad" deeds. Or something like that! I'll work out the details more, but it's fun to think about stuff like this! :D

Do you think it is possible for the other trolls to gaslight Eridan into do the murder for the right cause? E.g. not like the murderstuck in the canon but guiding his murderous direction to align with the purpose, using him as a disposable glass cannon and a cannon fodder to take down enemies? but not easily disposable due to seadweller's physical strength and his fighting skills. Not the optimal way to handle him but given that he needs some presence of others how will this scenario go?

no because i believe eridan is the specific type of idiot that you can't actually manipulate because he doesn't listen to people. god bless 🫡

I love the difficulty curve in the Phoenix Wright series so much.

The first mission is all:

"I didn't know it was the victim's birthday!" "If you didn't know it was her birthday, why did you have a cake and candles in your bag?" "They were for my birthday!" "*Gasp!* Strapping Lawyer Man! Check the court record!" " Thank you for your support, Charming Teenage Girl! You're so right! You have underestimated me, Evil Murderer Witness! Your birthday was in March and it is July!" "Nooo! My plan to frame Hapless Passerby is ruined by your remarkable powers of observation!" "Wow! Strapping Lawyer Man! You're so clever how did you work that out?"

Through to

"I dunno what to tell you, Charming Teenage Girl, the only contradiction I can find is that this image is moved one pixel to the left." "I mean, I think we should point it out anyway, Strapping Lawyer Man." "Objection! This image is ONE PIXEL TO THE LEFT!" "Hahaha! Strapping Lawyer Man! You have walked into my TRAP don't you know that proves my theory more than yours? It's such a shame you can't get wacky hijinks approved in court to disprove me." "...Y'know what, Strangely Kinky Prosecutor? I'm gonna get wacky hijinks approved in court."

Autistic people are often portrayed as being really genuine and kind and brilliant, but I would like to clarify that some of us are idiots who don’t understand people and just want to vibe with our 53 unfinished projects and maybe a cat

martin/elias is an absolutely hilarious ship if you ignore the angst potential because like. they would outwardly look like a genuinely loving relationship but they're playing 4d chess mentally the whole time. martin's doing his whole innocent and caring sweetheart act to manipulate jonah. jonah's doing his whole boring and non-threatening manager act to manipulate martin. it's like a fake dating trope but both of them think they're fooling the other into thinking it's real

[spite-and-waffles]

Dick: If you have to resort to violence it means you've already failed. Damian: *furiously* Grayson, sometimes violence is necessary— Dick: Of course. I meant it means you've failed at manipulation. Damian:... Dick: *wags finger* Alfred and I raised you better than that.
