To whom it may concern (Bebe and Cassius):

I'm sure we'll all well aware of the current event surrounding a certain Unovan(?) entrepreneur who stylizes himself as a genius. It is therefore unnecessary to show me news about his latest "innovative endeavors" for the express purpose of "watching [me], an inventor, age about ten years every time."

So to get it out of the way for the thirteenth and hopefully final time:

Yes, I'm aware.

No, I don't know how he got a stainless steel tank, a rocket cobbled together from spare parts, a self-driving car that occasionally ignites into a ball of flames while trapping its driver in thanks to multiple design flaws, or the brain chip past an ethics committee.

Yes, I am "salty" that I made one mistake with one of my inventions, and now I'm constantly scrutinized by the Pokémon Cutting-Edge Technology Research Institute's ethics committee.

No, I do not want the brain chip.

Yes, I want to study the brain chip.

The fifth point is out of morbid curiosity as to how it got past an ethics committee, not respect.

Hopefully, this clears things up.

Best, Bill

{From the Mun:

I found this in the drafts, and I thought it would be hilarious to bring this out and tack on an update post while I'm at it.

But the biggest thing is, I'm . . . actually leaving Tumblr. Now, the main reason for that is my main got super borked up. I've been told by my followers over there it's not shadowbanning, but I'm pretty sure it's random-ass shadowbanning. I cannot receive asks, I can't tag people, I don't have DMs, and I don't show up in notes. As for why, I can't fathom. For the most part, I've kept my nose pretty clean on that account, other than that one time somebody in the writeblr community kinda lost it and tried to use a bunch of random people as a scapegoat for drama reasons. Yeah, idk.

Anyway, the point is, I've submitted a ticket a few months ago and then . . . never heard back. And honestly, for personal reasons, I'm not really inclined on remaking.

Personal reasons being I'm gunning for writing an actual book, as you might know from my last-ish post? Like, non-Pokémon book. Though I'll admit some bits might be familiar to those of you who've hung around the blog for a while. Here's a hint: take powerverse, gender swap it, role swap it, and then stick it into FFXIV and add more steampunk. It's been cooking for the past year you haven't seen me, and I'm aiming to start pitching it to agents by the end of the year. If you'd like to follow along, if you're also a writer who would like to make more writing friends, or if you just like my writing for some reason and want to keep up with me, you can find me at jaxwolffwrites on both Bluesky and Twitter. Bsky moreso, but you'll get progress on this project on either of those other platforms.

Now, I will say this: just to be fair, I'm doing three things:

Closing the askbox. Admittedly, if you've been sending me asks for the past three months, I haven't seen them anyway. Sooooo I probably should've done that ages ago. Sorry about that.

Answering any ask I've saved to the drafts. Any ask. Please note that I don't know if the borking I've described above extends to this blog as well, so Bill won't be replying to replies or reblogs/tags. Apologies for that in advance. There are 49 posts in the drafts, and these will come out fairly slowly as I continue to keep up with my writing schedule on the other project.

Leaving this blog up as an archive. Assuming Tumblr doesn't nuke the main and the backup account that was created in an effort to avoid total nuking, and assuming Tumblr doesn't nuke this blog itself, I really want to leave this up so you can enjoy this pretty much forever onward. You all are the reason why this blog has gone on for so long, and I want to preserve this blog as a thank you for following me for so long.

So yes, after I clear the drafts, you'll likely see one last farewell from Bill and Lanette, and then that will be that. To everyone who's followed, thank you so much for following and supporting this blog over the years. As many ups and downs as running this had, I still look back on every moment as one fun adventure.

So thank you, and take care.}

What If Choices' Race-customizable LIs Had Surnames Reflective Of Their Ethnicity?: An Experiment Just For Fun (Part 2/3)

Info in Part 1

Part 3

HOT COUTURE

Marco Diallo

This face option is described in the asset files as "Black". I did a cursory research and learned that there is a significant Black Italian community of immigrants from Cameroon, so that's my headcanon for him and his family. I chose the Fulani surname Diallo because it starts with a Di like Di Vincenzo.

Marco Diệp

This face option is described in the asset files as "Asian". The most significant Asian Italian community is Chinese Italians, but I didn't find a Chinese surname starting with the sound Di that sounded right to me. So I went with the Vietnamese Diệp.

HOT SHOT

Casey Jamil

These face options are described in the asset files as "Middle Eastern". The Arabic surname Jamil was a spelling match for Jameson, and this spelling appears to be common in Syria and Iraq. So if they had this surname they could be Syrian or Iraqi.

IMMORTAL DESIRES

Cassius Han / Cassandra Han

These face options are described in the asset files as "Asian". The Japanese surname Harada is a spelling match for Harlow but I already used Harada for the LI of Guarded. Also, I keep seeing people comparing the masc face to this one Kpop singer, I forget who, so it gave me the headcanon that these faces are Korean. The Korean surname Han seemed like a pretty solid match for Harlow, and it's also a Chinese surname too so they could be Chinese with this surname. Also I know fem Cas's full name is canonically Cassie but like many others on this internet website I am a Cassandra Harlow truther because I think it sounds better.

Gabriel Almánzar / Gabriela Almánzar

These face options are described in the asset files as "Latinx". Couldn't find any Spanish or Portuguese language surnames that start with "Ad" so I went with a Spanish surname that starts with "A" and retains the "A-al-ar" sounds from Adalhard.

LAWS OF ATTRACTION

Gabe Ryu

This face option is described in the asset files as "Asian". Almost went with the Korean surname Rhee but I already chose it for TPS LI and also I think the Korean surname Ryu looks cooler on a law firm plaque. lol

MS. MATCH

Jack Mansour / Jacqueline Mansour

These face options are described in the asset files as "Arabic". Mansour was a close Arabic-language sound match to Monroe. This spelling seems to be common across all of North Africa and the Middle East. So I guess they could be from any of those places with that surname.

MY TWO FIRST LOVES

Noah Higuchi

This face option is descrbed in the asset files as "Asian". Another LI with a surname starting with "Har" which can correspond with the Japanese surname Harada but I already used that and also "Noah Harada" has too many open "A" sounds in a row for my liking. So I just chose a cool sounding Japanese name starting with the letter H because this face option looks Japanese to me.

Ava Lozano

This face option is described in the asset files as "Hispanic". Lozano was the closest Spanish-language surname I could find to Lawrence. The Spanish form of the first name Lawrence is Lorenzo, but it doesn't appear to be used as a surname like Lawrence is in English-speaking countries.

Mason Jiménez

This face option is described in the asset files as "Hispanic". Couldn't find Spanish-language surnames that start with the same sound as Jennings. If my memory is correct I don't think Spanish has that sound? Jiménez has a lot of the same letters though so? That should work?

THE NANNY AFFAIR

Sam Delgado / Samantha Delgado

These face options are described in the asset files as "Hispanic". I considered the Spanish surname de la Torre because it retained the D-L-T-O sounds from Dalton but I thought Delgado sounded cooler……?

THE PHANTOM AGENT

Karan Gill / Sameera Gill

These face options are described in the files as "Indian". I considered the surnames Giri (broadly Indian, common in Nepal I think?) and Ghauri (common in Pakistan as far as I can tell?) for sound matches for Gray but Gill (Punjabi) sounded cooler. Also there was nothing necessarily wrong with the names Callum and Samara other than I don't like them. So I assigned them new Indian names…….

Part 3

[garland-on-thy-brow]

Reading Antonio Conti's Marco Bruto (1744)!

Highlights from Act 1 Scene 1:

Brutus has a shrine to Cato in his house.

Servilia is the political mastermind behind Caesar's impending coronation. She plays senators as she pleases. This apparently includes Cicero, on whom she has influence through Publilia.

In 63 bce, Servilia's letter to Caesar that made Cato so mad was delivered in the senate by none else than Decimus Brutus.

Caesar wants to marry Brutus to Octavia; Brutus said fuck this.

Servilia is not happy about this refusal, about Porcia, about Cassius, and most of all about the ghost of Cato.

Albinus pretends to work with Servilia but really works with Cassius. Very sexy of him to always be a double agent.

Some more from subsequent scenes:

Cassius would have stabbed Caesar at the Lupercalia but Trebonius held him back saying they still need Brutus there for PR purposes.

Porcia is very persuasive.

Porcia and Cassius complain to each other about Brutus.

[deadlymaelstrom]

Okay, I think I have an idea on what to name my different Rooks for the upcoming Dragon Age: The Veilguard with their profile summary and backgrounds included:

Stefano d'Baldovinetti: An assassin from Antiva and a member of the Antivan Crows. Specializing as a duelist, Stefano was hired to eliminate a target in Tevinter when he inadvertently crosses paths with Varric Tethras and Lace Harding.

Meyla: A Dalish elf from the Ralaferin clan. Due to there being too many mages within the clan, Meyla was cast out with nothing but her magical abilities and wits to keep her alive. Without a place to call home, Meyla joined the Veil Jumpers to learn more about ancient elven history in the Arlathan Forest before sensing a strong tremor in the Fade.

Alfonso Maderuelo: A young, headstrong mage of Nevarra's Mortalitasi and the Mourn Watch's newest recruit. Upon discovering an intruder sneaking into the Grand Necropolis to steal a forbidden tome, Alfonso defies the Overseer and chases the thief all the way to the border between Nevarra and Tevinter, discovering them to be an agent for the Venatori.

Olelinda Varra: A surface dwarf and member of the Carta. With her quick feet, fast hands, and sharp knife, Olelinda joined the Lords of Fortune in the hopes of accumulating great wealth in Rivain. She is in a relationship with her Qunari bodyguard, Seraan.

Seraan: A Qunari mercenary and personal bodyguard for her dwarven lover, Olelinda Varra. Originally from Par Vollen, she became disillusioned with her place among Qunari society and abandoned the Qun, effectively becoming a Tal-Vashoth. After years of killing bandits, pirates, blood mages and agents of the Ben-Hassrath, Seraan was hired the Lords of Fortune as an enforcer.

Cassius Lunaris: A mage from the Tevinter Imperium and apprentice to Magister Dorian Pavus. Born and raised in Minrathous, Cassius is of the Laetans, lower-class families with no direct lineage to Dreamers. As such, he was often looked down upon by the Imperium's upper-class: the Altus. A strong supporter of the Lucerni political faction and a knack for solving puzzles, Cassius was contacted by Neve Gallus and accepted her offer to join the Shadow Dragons, hoping to reform Tevinter from within.

Vandrad Thidriksson: A grizzled Anderfels Grey Warden veteran stationed at Weisshaupt Fortress. He was Davrin's former mentor and a rival to the Hero of Ferelden. With more than 28 years of experience, Vandrad believes the ends justify the means when dealing with darkspawn and Blights. Before he inevitably has to venture to the Deep Roads for the Calling, Vandrad prepares for what seems to be his final battle.

[cassiusj]

Hi! I'm Crow! You can find me at my main blog @flockofcrowsinatrenchcoat or my usual ROTTMNT blog @flockofcrowsinaturtleshell .

[ncisfranchise-source]

Members of NCIS’ D.C., Hawai’i, Los Angeles and New Orleans bureaus have joined forces for a good cause (and the crossover photo of your dreams).

Past and present stars of the popular CBS franchise united Wednesday on the SAG-AFTRA picket line. The group selfie, snapped and shared by NCIS: Los Angeles’ Daniela Ruah (aka Special Agent Kensi Blye), also features NCIS’ Brian Dietzen (Dr. Jimmy Palmer), NCIS: Hawai’i’s Vanessa Lachey (Special Agent-in-Charge Jane Tennant) and Kian Talan (Alex Tennant), and NCIS: New Orleans’ Scott Bakula (Supervisory Special Agent Dwayne Cassius Pride) and CCH Pounder (medical examiner Loretta Wade).

“Today was strong and necessary,” Ruah wrote on Instagram. “To all the @iatse & @dga members and supporters of @wgastrikeunite & @sagaftra I am so grateful to have walked alongside all of you today. Saw so many people I have loved for over 14 years coming together again in strength.”

NCIS: Los Angeles wrapped its 14-season run in May, while New Orleans went off the air in 2021, after seven seasons. Of note: L.A. vet LL Cool J is set to guest-star during NCIS: Hawai’i Season 3 as Special Agent Sam Hanna, and former castmate Ruah told TVLine’s Inside Line that she is open to similarly reprising her role as Kensi someday, somewhere.

CBS in January staged the first three-way crossover between NCIS, NCIS: Hawai’i and NCIS: Los Angeles. Prior to that, there had been assorted two-show crossovers between the mothership and its myriad spinoffs.

[marksman-ofthe-mist]

something of an (player-)oc master-post?

info on them beneath the cut cos I HAVE THE CHANCE!!!!! hear about my BLORBOS, BOY.

CASSIUS TUREVER-

listen to cassius by foals lol. lol . lol :-) lol. no relation

Jazz agent :-)

OBIE OBIEEEE OBIE my friend OBIE 's his companion ...

left-handed in more ways than one

he was originally just some guitarist guy until i decided i was gonna just like MAKE HIM in LOATHING. which was the best thing I could've done. it was either CASSIUS in MY LOATHING GAMES or err (checks notes) milo.....murphy.......... because i couldn't think of a better name. not related to the show i swear. it just came to me

he's british . dearly sorry or whatever i dont know . low-class, came to america 'for jobs' at age like 19. in 1922

HE'S NOT ACTUALLY SHADOW TAINTED (or at least in any substantial amount) WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID THE SHADOW STUFF IN HIS HAIR ACTUALLY CAME BEFORE I EVEN KNEW ABOUT SHADOW TAINT???? your honour i thought it would be cool . and it is . lol

fun fact about the stuff in his hair that was actually supposed to have been caused by terrence's accounting but now I have no idea. literally your honour it looks cool

ALFIE ACHIVUNTER-

Cheese wizard!

Barker (pre-taint)

Alphonse-gator (mid/post-taint)

average muscle, high mysticality, and like a 1 in moxie at all times ever

his last name is a portmanteau of achievement and hunter but i keep misspelling it as archivunter . maybe it could instead be archive and hunter but that doesn't make sense? anyway

hey alfie gullible's written on the ceili- hey yeah it does aw now i'm mad (in the shadow-tainted way . he's supposed to be my shadow-tainted guy except He Is Not Evil . He is just full of Madness . Knowledge of the unknowable or whatever you know? yeah)

he's worry. just look at him

CHARLIE HOLLOWAY-

fraternal twin

former bean-slinger, switched with Sylvester and became a snake-oiler

honourable :-)!

absolutely TERRIFIED of dying . more specifically of old age . that's why he found this clock of never-aging-ever*. it's pretty cool . does not look a day over 25 (or so)

more on this. if he played the sims i think he would pass out at the sight of the grim reaper (HALF SILLY?)

*ACTUALLY FUN FACT. it's more like never-changing-ever in the sense of he never gets sleepy nor hungry nor anything of that sort anymore. lol . if he got a cut he wouldn't bleed either

THOUGH despite all of that he'd quite literally turn to dust à la Maxwell Don't Starve if the clock got taken away somehow......

SYLVESTER HOLLOWAY-

guess . is this man a twin ? i have no idea . absolutely no idea (FRATERNAL TWIN)

former snake-oiler, switched with Charlie and became a bean-slinger

Mon Frère is a funny little mix of Sylvester and Charlie . I'm mentioning this cos I feel sooooo smart for it . instead of forgetting one and misremembering the other Rufus misremembered them BOTH and MUSHED THEM TOGETHER I GUESS. though that's specific to myyyyyyyy little loathing thingy . yeah

........SORRY IF THIS IS UTTERLY UNREADABLE? BY THE BY?

🌙 Moon: Do any of your OCs have dark backstories or secrets they’re trying to keep hidden?

🥧 Pie: Which of your characters takes care of the others around them? How do they take care of themselves?

For the fall ask game :D

( @angsty-prompt-hole )

From the Fall-tastic Asks

@angsty-prompt-hole

🌙 Moon: Do any of your OCs have dark backstories or secrets they're trying to keep hidden?

But of course. (Content Advisory: passing mentions of natural disaster, death, murder, transphobia, scars, abusive parents/guardians, religious abuse, self-isolation/neglect)

Isaac: Saw his entire family killed and eaten by a werewolf. Said werewolf happens to be the patron of the department he devoted ten years of his life to. Carries the scars from this on his back along with a load of survivor's guilt/PTSD.

Renato: Grew up trans as the world was falling apart from a climate/magical cataclysm. Witnessed countless deaths, saw his own parents die as the ship they were on sank. Helped drown a man at 15 to protect his best friend, Oleander. Was manipulated into becoming a vampire and an agent for an oppressive organization by his sire/father figure.

Oleander: Also grew up trans as the world was falling apart from a climate/magical cataclysm, but it was made worse by her family being in an apocalyptic cult. Was forced into a conversion program when she confided having Gender Thoughts™ at 13 to her mother. Still bears a cross-shaped brand on the back of her right hand. Escaped and was adopted by the same vampire as Renato. Hunted down her remaining brothers and father after she turned. Regrets nothing.

Kinslayer: Had their soul mutilated by a god of light and order as part of an experiment to "help" humans. Is now the most powerful psychic vampire in the world, but is forever hungry and destined to self-destruct, taking the universe with them. Is on a quest to avert this fate, but time is running short.

Cassius Mergus: Was a middling vampire from the realm next door to Earth until he came to our world and started taking advantage of our limited magical knowledge. Befriended a brilliant alchemist, then murdered him to steal his idea of forming a network of supernatural cooperation. Turned said idea into an oppressive organization where he's at the top of the food chain. Recruited a ruthless necromancer, psychic vampire torturer, evil werewolf family, and *ahem* super cool poltergeist to aid him in his quest for power. Made infinitely worse by how Mergus is so damn likable in person.

🥧 Pie: Which of your characters takes care of the others around them? How do they take care of themselves?

Here's another area where Mergus excels, making him that much more effective at what he does. It's like he memorized the Evil Overlord Handbook. He treats all his subordinates so well that the majority blame themselves when/if he disposes of them. Mergus remembers their birthdays and children's names--and not even for nefarious purposes necessarily. He will use those bonds as leverage if need be, of course, but...he also does take a genuine interest in those around him, warped as it may be.

As for himself, Mergus enjoys nothing more than sitting by the fire in a cozy chair and discussing everything and nothing with a confidante. Who, these days, is usually his aide, Ayman. A human man who is honestly more like a platonic life partner at this point, and would gladly--maybe even eagerly--give his life for Mergus.

As for less villainous characters, Isaac is pretty good at going the extra mile for the people around him. When he's not, you know, isolating as a trauma response. He's definitely better at caring for others than he is for himself.

Ben Zebrowski, though, is a much more consistent example. This imposing vampire man with a foul-mouth and oft-broken nose sometimes gets called Babcia/Busia, Abuelita, Nana, or some other form of "Grandma" by the neighborhood (always behind his back, of course). The affectionately derogatory practice likely arose from a couple of things. 1) His go-to of feeding people, human or vampire, to show he cares. He practices cooking regularly in order to keep this habit up with the human side of that equation. 2) The fact he'll be deeply insulted if someone doesn't eat. Nobody makes this mistake twice. And 3) he will hound anyone who stubbornly tries to push themselves until they've submitted to being fussed over. Ben is Isaac's worst nightmare in this regard.

Despite some collective eyerolling, Ben's methods of caring have endeared him to his community. Thus, he never really wants for getting his simple needs met: blood, playing or watching some baseball with friends, and uhhhh lots of, shall we say, physical affection.

LIGHT BRINGER 7 chapter preview SPOILERS

Based solely on the 7 preview chapters, what are your thoughts on CassiusXScrewface? do you think it is still possible?

Personally speaking, after reading how much Screw is jealous of Chin-ssius my liking for the ship has only strengthened, but I have many doubts on its actual realization.

Jealousy was so episodic for me that I honestly did not put much thought into it. Screwface is insecure and vulnerable and mentally struggling after 10 years on enemy lines AND the entirety of Dark Age. His feelings about Cassius are uncomplicated - suspicion and resentment.

I honestly would not want him to be with someone that thinks stealing helium - 3 from his mummy is monumental when he saw the rivers of blood in Heliopolis. Screwface has LIVED the rivers of blood.

Screw committed atrocities under enemy lines as a double agent and has to live with that for the rest of his life, sacrificed his life for the Republic and for Darrow and made it all that he has. Cassius may have helped killing Aja and Octavia, but he then went trekking the Solar System with the very boy who made Heliopolis possible. Screwface cannot even forgive Sevro, so there is no way he would ever get over what Cassius...did not do. Their views are very different, to the point I think their ship has crumbled before it even touched water.

Cassius still has issues - which I ALWAYS expected him to have, because all the behind the lines growth the fandom force fed me made NO SENSE. And given Screwface's own issues, neither should be in a relationship af the moment, because their respective issues are not healthy for a future with a partner. I hope they both solve them, I will enjoy their journeys - but given Screw does not go with Darrow anymore, I doubt they will ever be linked romantically.

I have honestly hoped that Cassius would be...more empathetic to the soldiers. That Screwface wouldn't be so miserable that he would struggle so hard to keep it together. That they could have bonded over hiding their pain, lick their wounds, eventually lick each other's wounds. It was not meant to be.
