I Cracked Sebeks place in the Diasomnia family
Sebek to rest of the diafam is that one cousin that is more your sibling than cousin , like yes technically he has his own family and is their cousin but if you say that they would be like no , he is our brother ?? Take back that nonsense at once. ( if they were honest for once with their feelings) Sometimes all of them forget he has his own family . Silver has the same exact position on the Zigvolts . Because there is no may Mr. Zigvolt or Ms. Zigvolt just left baby Silver with his dad who thought his baby would just come back after he crawled away , like no we are co-parenting now . like Lilia is giving his best but his best isn't that great , still a good dad but he needs help. That Man and Mal are the reasons Silver grew up relatively healthy. They would have went that boy is ours too now ( no Lilia bashing but his cooking is deadly)
To Lilia he is one of his boys, he isn't the legal parent of Mal either, and yes he isn't Sebeks dad but that is his boy , he may have good parents but hey they can share. They already do .That is the boy he saw grow up and a constant in his home , he is his teacher , mentor and adult responsible for him . Thats not his son but one of his kids.
To Silver , he is a core part of his family , what you mean he isn't ? Thats his little bro from another father/mother , his best friend he has know him for all of his life , when he thinks family he thinks the dia4. The Zigvolts have pictures of Silver with the rest of the kids at their house change my mind . It isn't even a question for him Sebek is family thats it.
To Malleus he is one the little kids that he saw grow up , he may have not held him as a baby but as a toddler , he may be obsessed with him , but Silver is obsessed with mushroom risotto and he is with gargoyles thats just how Sebek is , thats his littlest guy . His little guy who cried bc he couldn't do magic. Yes he might be annoying sometimes but everyone in this family is sometimes thats normal . Mal is that one sibling with a huge age gap who basically raised his little siblings . If Lilia and Silver are his family so is Sebek . He will protect Sebek with his life , he chose those two as knights not because of their strength but because of their hearts, they will never be afraid of telling the truth to him ( or so he thinks) And with them close he can protect them .
AND Sebek is still like ah yes my cousin/sibling and his emotionally foolish family thank 7 I am the normal one in this family and not a part of it he is in denial as he is SEBEK ( need I explain more ?)
#twst sebek#sebek zigvolt#twisted wonderland#twst silver#silver vanrouge#lilia vanrouge#twst malleus#malleus draconia#diafam#diasomnia#Zigvolt parents to Silver be like OUR KID NOW#Lilia a year later to Sebek be like PAYBACK#As he claims the boy to his family#twst lilia#zigvolt family

It is infinitely more funny if both Sasuke and Sakura realized they don't function as well without Naruto and meanwhile Naruto function more efficiently with others.
As in, Naruto without proper support and understanding still succeeded- almost flourished. Naruto with proper support and understanding?
The minute someone figures out that all Naruto needs is a basic grasp of reading its over for Konoha. He has been enlightened and now he is free. Because Naruto, despite being a rather good example of work ethic and actively working to achieve skills, is also a genius. He manages to learn skills or make leaps in jugement canonically that others don't, and honestly the only things holding him back are the sabotage of his education and how stupid shinobi can be.
So the minute in a fanfic Naruto gets even a drop of support and he blossoms, and he starts making leaps and leaving behind his teammates? It is hilarious to witness a duo previously hyperfixated on their own two things, suddenly switching it up when they see that people are suddenly interested in Naruto. That he is suddenly appealing to others, that people think they have a right to his time.
Suddenly Naruto isn't there when training ends, or leaves after missions to "help a friend", he doesn't offer to get ramen with them or even to find more ways to mess with their sensei. And even when they hang out, he's distant- no longer dumb, no longer reliant, sometimes he does things he says he learned from other teachers or even by observing. No longer loud, or distracting Sakura from the way Sasuke isn't perfect, or rivaling Sasuke and giving him chances to grow stronger. He doesn't get upset when Sasuke still beats him at taijutsu, or how Sakura is still better at chakra control, and doesn't brag when he is good at something.
"I guess I just realized we each have our own strengths," Naruto says when they both corner him about it. "And I want to make sure I can keep you both safe because you're my team- you're all I have. Like family. So yeah, I want to learn everything I can do."
And Kakashi learns two things after Sasuke and Sakura have their realizations and new resolutions.
First, that neither Sakura nor Sasuke were in anyway sane and whatever had made them snap was only positive in that it hadn't turned them against Konoha and thus, he did not have to handle them.
And second; He suddenly doesn't have to worry about weird love triangles but does have to worry about suitors and Sasuke and Sakura's reactions to them.
#naruto#naruto shippuden#naruto uzumaki#team seven#sakura haruno#sasuke uchiha#kakashi hatake#honestly in a romantic sense none of team seven should ever be together#on a familial sense none of them have any actual proper support and should have turned into a feral pack#naruto is the only friendly face on team seven and kakashi at some point is the red herring#anyway this is also pretty boy naruto agenda because kishimoto butchered him#like yeah take his arm but dont give him a brick of a body and cut his hair like that#looking at both his parents and taking into account his childhood? naruto should be very lithe and not all that tall#and honestly i could see him either growing long hair as a way of remembering neji or his godfather#or taking up his dad's haircut with minor differences#while i wouldnt describe sakura and sasuke as yandere i do believ they exhibit high possesive behaviors and claim naruto as territory#like at one point they fight over naruto and then realize they can share and fight everyone else TOGETHER#kakashi takes one look at the sudden shift in team seven dynamic and realizes he may have been saved#cause im also for the agenda of kakashi being highly demiromantic as a teen#and it would only have taken a little longer for him to stop being an asshole amd for them to see pretty boy kakashi

KINCADE PACK 🐺 (original works) — “The name goes back centuries, and all Miranda cares about is making sure it lasts for many more”
[template by @tommyarashikage]
tag list (ask to be added or removed!): @adelaidedrubman @florbelles @simonxriley @voidika @kyberinfinitygems @voidbuggg @inafieldofdaisies @statichvm @socially-awkward-skeleton @aceghosts @carlosoliveiraa @risingsh0t @unholymilf @thedeadthree @cassietrn @jackiesarch @a-treides @shellibisshe @loriane-elmuerto @katsigian @captastra @simplegenius042 @theelderhazelnut @g0dspeeed @leviiackrman @strangefable @jacobseed
#insp: the lodge#too many ocs to tag here lmao#this is a little bit rushed because it’s like 2am#but I’ve been thinking about doing this template for them since I first saw it#FINALLY I get to talk about this fucked up rich werewolf family#Logan and Jayde’s dad were best friends and grew up together#so Jayde and Skye essentially grew up with Logan’s kids#there’s a lot of complicated feelings there between the kids for various reasons#they consider each other family to a degree (more like cousins)... but some of them would definitely straight up kill each other.#Miranda had her eye mostly on Jayde because she’s the same age as Garret and Miranda’s main goal is to strengthen her bloodline#and Jayde comes from a well known purebred bloodline#so Miranda’s golden boy Garret (massive douchebag) tried his darndest to rizz up Jayde for most of their childhood#Jayde fucking despises him. she beat his ass on more than one occasion. which massively bruised his fragile ego. but he still wants to hit#Amara and Mitchell are the designated chaos twins that Jayde has a love/hate relationship with. Skye gets along with them great of course#Jonas is the only mf that has his head on straight. He's mostly separated from the fam. removed at the 'heir' when he didn't want it.#now hes a werewolf therapist for werewolves with a small family of his own. he reminds Jayde of her dad. he's around the same age too#SCANDAL: Jonas is slightly older than Logan lmao#Declan is the other golden boy. the precious spoiled baby. Miranda's backup for the backup.#he's terrified of Garret so he tries to stay out of his way and mostly keeps to himself#tbh Declan is just Scared of Everything and desperately doesn't want any responsibility but tries to hide it#anyway before Jayde's dad was killed and she was captured they knew hunters were coming for them#so they went to the Kincades for help. Miranda would only accept the girls.#Jayde chose to stay with her parents and they left Skye with the family to keep her safe (she was 12)#that was the last time Skye saw her family intact :/ she didn��t see Jayde again for years.#so Miranda pampered her and groomed her to be in her family.#like she was this little jewel. the last living Thatcher.#now that Jayde is back and Skye is with her and they're living their own life#Miranda be scheming. she wants to claim their bloodline sooo bad.#anyway sorry for the massive lore dump there’s.... a lot of complicated shit going on here#edits

you should fear evan hansen. you will be found
#deh from the murphy family's perspective: with a twist#your son takes his own life and all of a sudden this boy you've never even met is claiming he was your son's best friend#things aren't adding up#he starts making unsettling advances on your daughter#and eventually you find out that this suspicious boy is responsible for the death of your son and has worse things in store for you

Evan Afton is genuinely SO Norman Babcock. like his whole family doesnt understand him and in fact dislike him and actively tell him so and act callous around him (save for Norman's mom)? his family treats him like hes different or weird and excludes him? hes bullied at school and is small for his age? he keeps to himself and has unique interests that everybody ridicules? he actively tries to stay out of peoples way because hes seen as a burden? he spouts on about 'fake' visions he has and people think hes crazy for it (Evan with the nightmares, Norman with the ghosts and prophecies)? he gets dragged into some decades long tragedy and has to deal with it? they share the same role, but Evan is the beginning while Norman is the end? come on man
#obviously their stories are very different so not everything will apply#but like damnn#also pretty sure norman is kind of a gay allegory so do with thag what you will#its not that i think Evan is gay#jts that i think he probably feels disconnected from masculinity because of how much he isnt manlg#hes a boy who should be starting to grow up at his age who instead has really intense emotions and anxiety and nobody to help him with it#and of course his two manly family members will probably be telling him all about how he needs to toughen up and act like a 'real' man#when he isnt really kike that#he'll face different treatment than what girls his age will face#but thats just what i think#thoughts#evan#afton family#ALSOOO norman is probably the number 1 voice claim i have for evan#for these reasons i just listed and also because he just sounds how i think evan would sound#go search his voice up if you dont know#i think he fits really well for evan

at any given time i'm thinking about how the name given to charles lee by the mohawk translated to "boiling water" because of his temper. they really called him Tantrum Thrower and he bragged about it like that was a badge of honour.
#( * ooc. )#losing my mind trying to figure out what the hell happened w his supposed seneca wife and kids#apparently he had a 'union that he considered non-binding' with her#and fathered twin boys and then just? abandoned the family when he went back to england?#and there's really not much info on how/why he was embraced by the mohawk like he claims#i don't know WHAT the fuck was going on with this dude but Tantrum Thrower will never not be funny

people take the youre my mom and dad and picket fence line way too literally and it kind of annoys me... tails isnt saying that sonic is his dad hes saying that sonic is his family in general. plus they say sonic and tails are brothers like 500 times in that episode alone. are people just seeing that clip with no context and then never watching the rest of the episode or something
#like the plot of that episode was sonic trying to find a ''real'' family for tails#and there was a point where eggman tricked them with a fake family who were claiming to be tails's biological parents#and sonic was reluctant to let him go because he was gonna miss him but he was like hmm.. a mom.. a dad.. a picket fence..#that was all he wanted for tails it had seemed perfect he had to let him stay#when tails called sonic his mom and dad and picket fence it was a callback to that#and the whole Point of that scene is that they dont Need all those things to be a family#tails is basically saying ''sonic is my family we may not fit the traditional idea of what a family is#but we love eachother and thats what makes us a family''#sometimes a family is a teenage boy and the little kid he picked up off the street and decided was his brother#but again so many people take that literally and go around saying tails views sonic as his dad or whatever#thats not what that scene was Sayinggggg pleaseeee

thinking about nora again
#fallout#okay first of all her full maiden name is lenore dubrovhsky#she's somehow related to the russian diplomat who is the grandfather of natalia dubrovhsky#maybe his niece? idk but she immigrated to the us after meeting nate during his tour because she claimed she was IN LOVE#i imagine she was in her late teens and nate was in his early 20s#and she falls for him and he promises he'll help her with going to college in the US and they'll have an equal marriage yadda yadda#so they get married and nora becomes a lawyer#so they've been married around seven years and she's doing her training as a legal secretary when oops! she becomes pregnant#(nate sabotaged her birth control but shhh she doesn't know that)#so nate persuades her into putting her career on hold just for a little while until they can start putting their son in daycare#(shaun takes heavily after nora's side of the family to the point nate jokes about whether his DNA had any say at all)#(he also later joins the army and dies in action)#so nora's being kept at home all the time. taking care of the kid. cooking all the meals. cleaning the house. barely any time for herself#and she gets so frazzled she gets into a minor car accident while taking shaun home from the doctor#nate freaks out and confiscates her car keys so now she can barely get out of the house without him on her arm#barely any adult social interaction and any family she could have had keeping her company was all the way over in russia#so she has a quickie with a door-to-door salesman and when her next kid pops out with red hair#the lack of resemblance to nate stops being funny#he agrees not to leave her but says he can't trust her at home alone anymore so he gets her a job at shaun's elementary school as a teacher#this happened around when shaun was 11 and he's harbored a hatred for his mom and his sister ever since#nate promised to raise the girl like his own but he's distant with her which rubbed off on shaun#so the girl. i'm calling her annabelle. TOTAL mommy's girl. wants to be just like her#so when shaun's seventeen he fakes his enlistment papers so he can be enlisted early and dies in combat#i imagine nora misses the baby boy she raised and is utterly upset he turned out this way#and by 'this way' i mean i imagine him as a patriotic misogynist and nora does not hold kind feelings towards the US for various reasons#nate was proud of his son for dying for a cause he believed in#so when annabelle's six nora gets pregnant again and that's when i imagine the bombs drop#the school nora works for is a really privileged private school (nate comes from old money) and that's where the cryo pods come in!#i imagine it would be like a 'saving america's youth for a brighter tomorrow' thing idk#also the day the bombs dropped nora killed nate before heading off to work. woulda been totally caught had the bombs not dropped HEYOOOO

There is something to be said about the fact that half the time, marginalized characters end up being the "normal" ones in fanon when that is so clearly not the case.
#thinking about all the cases of 'duke is shocked by the batfamily!'#effectively using duke as an outsider pov when he's literally not#or how cass is the Best Girl#also i say marginalized but i really just mean they're not white#oh actually another case of this is dick. he's schrodinger's character of color cause im pretty sure he's roma in like. maybe two runs#and then it was dropped. BUT actually i wont expand further that's for the circus posting#but regardless. the 'golden boy' rep does come a lot from. fanon. there's so many instances of him being the 'father' or blerg. 'mother' of#the group. and literally why. the only character he really has a fatherhood claim to is damian and that's because of the specific situation#stop making the eldest(s) in your ''''found family'''' the parents!!!!!#stop forcing your found family into a nuclear family structure!#anyways back to the point. 'why doesn't damian get this treatment?' 1) i said half the time and 2) racist introduction#damians also interesting because he is drawn so white for a lot of his appearances so he's also a kind of schrodingers white person.#chekov's white person? idk#project for later would be to compare character of colors' introductions and their portrayal in fanon#also admittedly batman is not the best media to analyze this through because there's multiple axes of shittiness#oversexualization racism classism ableism sexism... is tim the only one who comes out unscathed???#anyways the other reason batman kinda sucks for this (as well as dc) is just that a sizable portion of fans like. don't engage with the#source material. i've seen a lot of people say they've only ever touched fic/fanon. which. well. it becomes a feedback loop#ive also been in fandoms i haven't touched the source material for so i'm not juding. but there's a reason i've stopped that#jkb.talk

{ This manhwa I found is literally a perfect representation of how Dickson's childhood used to be with his parents. Granted he originally didn't react to anything due to his condition, but slowly over time he started to learn what happiness was (you know, before his parents were murdered).
I have never found anything so absolutely accurate before and now Imma cry about it because I finally have. 😭😭
#{ This manhwa is so unbelievably cute in my honest opinion and I love it. }#{ And the fact the son has black hair with blue eyes is perfect. }#{ The dad is also perfect since he looks just like Dickson. }#{ The mome would be perfect too of she was blonde and had blue eyes. }#{ But that's what Photoshop and such is for. }#{ LOOK AT MY BOY. HE'S HAPPY FOR ONCE. }#{ This also means I have a new child face claim for Dickson and possibly new face claims for his parents too. }#{ *me trying to move on from a break-up by using cute family manhwas* }#{ Will tag this better when on my laptop. }#☣ [ ' Eʋҽɾყσɳҽ Lσʋҽʂ A Vιʅʅαιɳ.

Whoops, someone dropped a demon revealing talisman in a peak lord meeting
AU where all the peak lords are secretly demons/part demons except they all think they’re the only one.
YQY: I can’t possibly tell Xiao-Jiu that the reason I couldn’t come back and save him is because my shizun had to keep my demonic heritage secret until I could control it…
SJ, who killed and ate QJL when demon puberty hit: I can’t let anyone know I’m a demon or they’ll throw me out
also LQG’s family are actually all part demons, but he never actually noticed this until he was an adult because he just assumed everything they did was normal and it was other people who were the weird ones.
#svsss#hope you dont mind op#yue qingyuan#shen qingqiu#shang qinghua#qi qingqi#liu qingge#wei qingwei#mu qingfang#okay demon type headcanon time#yqy was born a regular old half demon who had low enough demonic energy to pass for human#but when he claimed xuan su his demon heritage fucked around and made him a half demon half sword spirit thing and made the demonic traits#a lot more obvious#SQQ is a snake demon he ate qiu jianluo whole#someone in the comments of the og post suggested half demon borderlands raised sqq so hes half hamster demon now and from the borderlands#QQQ is a butterfly demon bc i thought it was pretty#LQG is generic high ranking unspecified demon like SHL he just got funny eyes and fangs#LQG has also yet to realize being half demon is not normal rip boy#i HC LQG and QQQs families were close so they were raised as awkward childhood friends due to close proximity so he thinks some cultivators#are just also half demons#WQW is a fire demon and also thinks this is hilarious#mqf is part plant demon and thinks the others should have mentioned their damn liniage!!! guys this is important medical info!!!#anyways i drew this in a road trip in a 3hr haze good night

thinking about Gabriel again and crying a little
#not actually crying . dw#anyway . the most impulsive boy you‘be ever met. no regards for rules or regulations. full of sunshine but not in the optimistic way#in the way that he burns. he is bright and shining and he claims to not care if you get hurt looking at him too long.#he’s lying of course. he wants so badly to be loved. to not be too much for someone#for a family to choose him and love him and not force his light out of him#but yet still it never happens#it hurts so much but it hurts more to dampen himself#so he doesn’t. he just keeps trying to shine

Im completely reworking the boys Mahko had with Mimi, because recently I've wanted the kids in my OC universe to have a more active roll in the story instead of being forgettable, useless background characters or props.
The boys have new names and personalities and everything. Mimi is unable to keep them from reuniting with Mahko when they become preteens/teens, unlike originally where he never sees them again after he and Mimi get divorced. Also they're going to end up with complicated/more negative feelings about their mother because I wanna add a dash of my own mommy issues into their narrative lol. But they've also got weird feelings about their dad since he was kicked out of their home when they were both young (another bit of my own issues/trauma lmaoo)
They both eventually go on to completely move in with Mahko and go no-contact with Mimi, much to her anger. I think it'll help motivate her to enact revenge and try to harm/kill Mahko and his friends even moreso than before. After all, someone with nothing left to lose is very dangerous to deal with.
#the oldest boy's name has changed from Matthew to Ciro. although more people call him Cyrus since Ciro is the Italian way of saying it#he's going to grow up to be an entomologist#the other boy is getting renamed to Hunter instead of Blake. since Blake is the name of an important figure in Sam's life growing up#I haven't figured out a future occupation for Hunter just yet but ik he's a hopeless romantic type of guy in his teenage/youbg adult years#Cyrus looks more like Mahko#I actually wanted Hunter to instead. but the face claims I chose for the boys made me decide otherwise#Cyrus's face claim looks older and I believe irl is older while ik Hunter's faceclaim is my age irl#also it just works out that I can give some of my issues to these two dudes#my family life is not the greatest. anybody who follows me on main will understand#their life will be different than my own of course and so will their relationship with their parents#I love having everyone eventually hate Mimi tho. she's my villain and I love to isolate her#because she Craves attention. I think she's a covert narcissist but I haven't decided if I want to give her mental issues like that#but regardless she's a very manipulative individual and I want her kids to eventually catch onto that and be like “fuck this” and leave#even tho they love their mother and know she's provided them with all the best things abd education#at the end of the day to Mimi the boys are extention of herself and The Family (the Italian mafia) instead of individuals#and anybody who's had a relationship with or is related to a person who views them that way will understand it fucking sucks#anyways I think I've rambled about this too long. Im just excited to build these characters and get to know them#viti shoosh#cyrus things#hunter things

(BOOK OF BILL SPOILERS)
I just finished reading The Book of Bill and I am kindof losing my mind over some of this stuff.
I had wondered if Alex Hirsch might make Bill sympathetic in some way and oh boy I was not expecting him to do it so successfully (and without cheapening Bill's character).
So, we learn that Bill was born into a 2D world... as a mutant who can see into the third dimension. He claims he was absolutely loved by all, but when talking about his powers, he mentions under Pyrokinesis:
"Cipher, Cipher, he's insane / Starting fires with his brain." The kids in grade school could be so cruel. But where are they now, huh? WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
So probably not quite as liked as he was letting on. To add to that, there's the silly straw page, which looks like silly nonsense until you decipher some of the codes:
"EYE DOCTOR OF A DIFFERENT KIND / WHO WANTS TO MAKE HIS PATIENTS BLIND" "THE DOCTOR SAYS / THREE SIPS A DAY / WILL MAKE THE VISIONS / GO AWAY"
I wasn't sure what this meant until I saw someone point out... he was seeing a third dimension that no one else could see. His parents probably took him to the eye doctor to try to "fix" him. Which, speaking of his eye doctor, the coded message in the section about human eyeballs says something interesting:
"MY OPTOMETRIST NEVER SAW IT COMING"
It could be a joke given beforehand he's talking about dissecting a human eye, but given the previous hints of medical abuse, I wouldn't put it past him that he tried to get revenge on his eye doctor.
Oh yeah and the whole thing about him setting his entire dimension on fire? Yeah it turns out it was entirely a mistake (he just wanted everyone to understand the third dimension he was seeing so they could be free of only two dimensions), he was so traumatized by it he blacks out when trying to recall it. He deeply, deeply regrets it, and...
"What? Your ENTIRE home dimension? destroyed? How? By what?" Bill looked distant, more distant than I'd ever seen him. "By a monster."
He sees himself as a monster.
And yet, he's not some innocent, misunderstood being. He still revels in causing pain and chaos. He's terrible in general, but becomes incredibly abusive toward Ford.
"YOU'RE MY PROPERTY. DON'T FORGET IT. The hillbilly abandoned you, your father won't want you returning without millions, you have no friends, and if you died out here in the snow, who would even miss you?"
Which... speaking of him and Ford...
Yes, yes, I know people ship them. But like, whether you see their relationship as romantic or platonic (I see it as the latter), there's some interesting parallels to be made here.
Both Bill and Ford are mutants who were mocked for their being different. (Bill was not physically a mutant, as far as we know, but more in the sense of him having vision stronger than that of everyone else in his dimension, and also having special powers. And he does describe himself as a mutant.) Both became social outcasts, separated from their families but still haunted by them (Ford seeing commercials of Stan on TV and running across old photos of him and his brother, Bill being haunted by his family in some form). Neither could return home for one reason or another. Both more powerful than their peers (Ford intellectually, Bill in terms of actual powers). Both of them isolated and alone. (Yes, Bill does have the Henchmaniacs, but they seem like shallow friends, and only really seem to follow him out of a desire to have a place to party.)
Ford was not aware of most of this, aside from knowing that Bill could not go home because his dimension was destroyed. But Bill absolutely saw himself in Ford. There was no other person he tried to use whom he felt a stronger connection to.
And he actually seems to care about Ford--he actually gave him a birthday present, and when Ford didn't like it, he decided to get drunk and party with him instead to make up for it.
And then when Ford realizes what Bill's plan actually is and refuses to go along with it, and fights back no matter what Bill does, Bill completely breaks down.
After living for trillions of years, he met someone who was like him, and that person rejected him.
He goes berserk, wreaking havoc, being caught by the dimensional authority that he's been taunting for most of his life.
And then after dying and being cast out of hell for being too annoying, he winds up faced with the Axolotl, who sends him to therapy, where he continues to break down further, sending out the book in a desperate attempt to find someone, anyone who will help him break loose and wreak havoc once again.
"You have no friends, and if you died ... who would even miss you?"
I don't know, Bill. Who would even miss you?
In short,
[ID: The front and back of one of Bill's Valentines cards. On the front is a black void with Bill Cipher lying down without his hat, gazing blankly upwards, with the text "I DON'T WANT TO DIE ALONE" above him. On the back is a simple white "TO/FROM" in red, with a red outline illustration of Bill spontaneously growing a mouth and eating a realistic, bloody heart. /end ID]
