HI! He’s shockingly not in his office to do paperwork. He’s just gathering a few things of his. He probably jumped when he fell. He’s using a cane because his back hurts:)

wait the dubs game tonight was against the mavericks...macklin and wsmith out there watching klay vs steph...no way wsmith knows the Narrative he's too down deep in new england but macklin was IN those trenches.....do you think he looked at will and promised himself it wouldn't end like that between the two of them. do you think he looked at will and then down at the court, and then back at will and told himself, with all the anxiety of youth, that no matter what happened, him and will would never end the way klay and steph did...that he'd look to his right and will would always be there no matter what
#BUT YOUR LIVES AND YOUR BODIES DO NOT BELONG TO YOU...MACKLIN KNOWS THIS BETTER THAN ANYONE AT HIS AGE.....#i actually have this theory that macklin got all his media training from the nba broadly and steph and dray specifically#and got all his training on like how to create a self off the ice that makes you indispensable to your org from the nba/the gsw#that kid knows he is in the panopticon and he is playing the sharks media beat and the nhl broadly for fools#and i think the sooner every other prospect realizes they're in the panopticon and sees how macklin is playing the game#the more interesting a time we're going to have in the nhl#i honestly think you can kind of see it happening with bedsy lmao but that's a true conspiracy theory and based only on vibes#bc i refuse to search out hawks stuff on my own so everything ik about bedard is like filtered through tumblr hrpf lens#but nevermind that. we need to fujo out. bro was in the soup. bro saw that championship. the injury. the fall. THE DIVORCE. the reunion#the way it all went down. every ugly moment. every beautiful one. he's in the soup. he KNOWS. he KNOWWWWWWWS#and he's looking at will. and he's saying that won't be me. that won't be him. that won't be us. we won't end like that#but he knows. one injury. one fall from grace. one raw moment in the media. it could be him. or will. or both of them.#YOU THOUGHT THAT TYING YOUR RED THREAD OF FATE TOGETHER MEANT FOREVER-EVER#BUT DID YOU REALIZE THAT YOU COULD BE THE ONE WHO UNTIES IT? CUTS IT? PULLS IT SO HARD IT SNAPS?#SOMETIMES IT'S NOT LIFE!!!! SOMETIMES IT'S YOU!!!!!#i need water. my head hurts.#fresno oilers.write

really fun parallels between Minami & Nishida in which one guy who wants most of the fights he gets into generally has a bit of a dodgy win/lose ratio, meanwhile the other who has only ever welcomed one single fight in his life is the more violently competent
#ikildaman shut the fuck up#incoming tag rant whoops#nishida (rgg)#minami daisaku#and also the one fight Nishida ever welcomed was one that he lost too#to be fair it Was with Goro Fucking Majima like hes Going to lose. but still#it could also be 2 for 2 if you count the time he went on strike for majima construction where majima once again beat his ass#at least that fight was worth fighting!#its a bit of a stretch on Minami's side maybe but i've definitely always headcanoned him as being first in the water so to speak#i always thought his job was like. related to corralling the juniors. like its a misnomer title sort of. so in that environment it makes#sense. he knows what the ppl around him are/arent capable of and it'd be his responsibility to not get them majorly hurt killed et ceteras#if hes collateral though its fair game#cant experience shitty boss dad disappointment punishment so on and so forth if youre dust! win#but also i wholly believe its an ego thing esp if its related to sparring w Majima. i just know that guy fights his own men#more like Jumping them tbh Sparring has too much mutual respect implied in the act#if thrs an opportunity to lock horns with the boss Minami is all over it. this is the most attention hes had in months and it sustains him#and its definitely shortened his lifespan while he was at it#although he never wins (re: Goro Fucking Majima) but i have to wonder how well he fairs with anybody else#he managed to sweep a bunch of Saejimas friends ig. Not Saejima himself but thats obvious Saejima could punt him across the room#insert 'i read saejima throwing him across the room and got so hard i threw up' joke here etc#the fight with Akiyama didnt happen that was a fluke he doesnt exist. blah blah blah cope and seetheage#if we're gna powerscale my unironic stance is he'd put aki in the ground#& should have. & did. to me. yay. heart. okay heart

sometimes your brain just becomes old timey mental hospital hell
#🎙️.will#ladies gentlemen and everyone either in between or outside of that spectrum!#we have ourselves a patient!#I'll be your host for this evening#on this game show that is the mental health world#spin the wheel!#lobotomy? electroshock?#or will they just beat you into not having symptoms they don't like?#I'm sure lithium would fix him!#why he's practically a grown man#16 isn't that young!#we should've started him sooner!#oh? you did?#well I guess he's just not trying hard enough then!#rest assured- we won't let him out of our sight#straightjacketed and wings clipped so he can't go too far! (for his own safety of course)#we know you just want the best for him#worst case scenario! he just stays in captivity!#lots of people lead rich healthy lives within the psychiatric system!#sure#he'll never be allowed to drive a car or own a credit card or live alone#but he'll be out of your hands!#and that's the most important part hmm?#(I'm still lucid btw I'm just rambling. in character. so to speak#read this like poetry or lyrics.#but the iw is a ward now. I didn't do that but that is what's happening#I'm just leaning into it)

Heartbreaking to realize one of my favorite songs is Aegon II coded (the Family Jewels by Marina)
#‘did I beat you at your own game’ because he took Alicent and Otto’s greed and amplified it beyond what they ever wanted#‘oh you think I’m unfit little did you know that I was cut for it’ bc he is the monster they made him to be#aegon ii targaryen#me making an Aegon ii post that isn’t hate? it’s more likely than you think.#HOTD

which horror trope/theme are you
family as a cult
you will never need anyone else. outsiders will hurt you, aim to corrupt you and ruin you and leave you in pieces, but your family will always be there for you. everyone has the same eyes, the same smile. the same sickly yellow light cast over their skin. the same tastes, the same food that melts to gray sludge on your tongue. family recipe. hugs last too long, touches linger and sting like sunburn. don't stray too far. if you come back looking like a wolf rather than a sheep, the dogs will eat you.
#okay yeah i expected something like this but a lr ig h t..#yeah.#⁂ ・゚: did i beat you at your own game? typical of me to put us all to shame ➛ musings#⁂ ・゚: sometimes the only way out is as a carcass ➛ dash games#abuse tw#cult mention tw

dark souls hates the idea of me finally winning a successful super ornstein fight so much that I've now managed to, in the process of trying (and almost exclusively failing) to kill smough first in phase 1, accidentally one-shot ornstein with fire tempest instead... twice. with ng++ health pools.
#did I end up finally getting the super ornstein fight and beating him? yes. eventually.#the thing with e.g. all the good souls youtubers that I've noticed though#is that they're either genuinely very good; and/or (often by their own words) they're very *patient*#I am neither! I'll usually try fighting 'safely' and 'defensively' a few times like people suggest#almost immediately get my ass handed to me in the first minute of the fight#and then look back over at my spell list and go '....but what if aggressive with giant dps nuke??'#anyway ornstein. babygirl. stop running into the spells I throw at smores. wait your turn. I'll barbecue you next just fine dw#dork souls tag#James liveblogs video games

The ducky is mine!! :DDDD
#prince's gaming tag#i grinded so hard to get from rank 23 to 100#bc like I was trying to clear the torturous difficulties and couldn't beat level 5 of that#so i wasnt getting a lot of points to raise my rank#but when i saw that this version was ending and with it the rewards i knew i had to act before the duck would be out of reach#im assuming thats would be the case but i couldnt risk it i wanted that duck!!#so i decided to play the highest difficulty i can clear with no problem which was torturous difficulty 2 and got 1000 points for every clear#you needed 800 to raise your rank by 1 and i was at rank 23 so that's 77 ranks to go through#it was a lot of grinding and i did fail some of the runs so i didnt get 1000 each time#but I finally got it!! and now he sits next to the he.rta one its very cute#this is the closest i can get to owning him atm until he reruns. once he does tho im sorry for the person i will be#now that i dont have to worry about losing him i should do the expansions in the simulated universe#bc doing those gets me exhibits that make divergent universe easier to do#which means a better chance of clearing higher difficulties

I really think there's something to that anecdotal phenomena that soulsborne games cure depression
#I was lying in bed all day yesterday and I felt super super sad today#and then I beat father gascoigne for the first time and I was like#maybe life isn't hopeless and I can do things#that's how video games SHOULD be#at least imo#they shouldn't be vehicles for passivity and checking out of your own brain#like of course soulsborne is escapism but those first playthroughs require you to actively make the effort to get better#in order to get through them#it takes practice and planning and absolute focus and there are concrete goalposts unlike a pvp game where it's just endless#it is therapeutic#it is brain exercise at a certain level#I played botw for 850 hours throughout ages 13-18 to escape my depression. I've spent a whole month of my life doing nothing but botw#and of course I love that game to death but it certainly did not have the same effect of making me want to get my life together#(botw just rewired my brain to want to explore and climb on top of literally everything irl and stress people out on hikes)#(and to have every odd corner of my campus mapped out in my brain bc I speedwalk and do that when I'm bored btwn classes)#(actually I never put that together. did I like botw because that's how my brain is wired or vice versa? chicken or egg? hm)

Arcane women accidentally confessing to you. | Sevika, Jinx, Caitlyn, Vi x Gn!Reader
This is very self-indulgent, so enjoy.<3
Content: pre-season 2 because I want to be happy rn, slight angst if you squint, fluff, accidental confessions, maybe ooc??, cursing, sfw
Reader has no set pronouns!
((Not proofread))
》SEVIKA
She was resting at the last drop with you during some downtime in between missions. One hand lingered on your hip whilst her metallic one held onto her cigar, eyes focused on the pocker game she was playing with a couple of Silco's other henchmen. She always kept you close this way, a clear sign of who you belonged to despite never having said a word about it yet. It was a mutual understanding only you could have, and so she didn't think a confession was necessary.
Until today, it seemed.
You were secretly helping her cheat a little and eventually told her the winning move, which earned her a large sum of money. Letting out a smug laugh at everyone's angered and defeated glares, she gave you a lazy grin. "Thanks, sweetheart. This is why I love you." She hummed to you, smoke exhaling from her dark lips, before she froze ever so slightly. Well, it shouldn't be that much of a surprise to either of you, and yet she couldn't help but chuckle at your own stunned face.
Looking at the men around her, she threw some poker chips towards them, clearly asking for another round. She wasn't the type to get flustered or shy anyways, so her moving on like nothing happened was on brand.
The only acknowledgment you got, however, was the hand on your hip tightening.
》JINX
She has a hard time hiding her feelings for you due to her rather energetic and extremely clingy nature. But there is still a clear distance between you two that she's too scared to cross. It was a deep fear of ruining everything she had with you in case her confession went wrong. She'd rather you consider her your best friend for life if it meant for you to stay at her side. She didn't want to lose more people after all. And yet, as fate has it, she eventually lost herself in a good and happy moment with you.
You were tinkering on some projects in her hideout whilst listening to music. Her head was leaning against your shoulder as her eyes traced your focused gaze. Jinx felt so content and at peace in that moment that she couldn't stop the words that spilled out of her mouth. "I love you." It took her a second to realise what happened, and her body was quick to flinch away from you. You kept her in place, however, with a free hand placed against her head. "Hey, it's okay. I love you too. I'm not leaving." You reassured her quickly with a smile, one that made her heart skip a beat.
She may not see herself as deserving of you, but she's glad to have you at her side anyway. Hopefully forever.
》CAITLYN
Caitlyn was good at hiding her emotions from you. In fact, she had refused to tell you in fear of breaking the professionalism you two had and, most importantly, your friendship that she cherished deeply. And so, she was very careful not to reveal a single thing... until her confidence betrayed her and caused her to slip up.
You two were reviewing a new case together, and whilst she wasn't paying attention, she accidentally slid you her diary over. It unfortunately looked too similar to her work notebook, something she only realised the moment you opened it and froze in surprise. She may have scribbled your name all over it. She may have childishly drawn hearts around your name. She may have made it awfully clear that she loved you. And it made her wonder if there was a god out there that hated her deeply.
"... My apologies. Please ignore that-" "-Haha, I'm so relieved that I'm not the only one who did this!" You let out a soft laugh before pulling out your notebook and showing her similar pages to her own, just with her name written all over them. Her face was flushed from how flustered and embarrassed she was, but alas, she too couldn't help and chuckle at how silly this all was. At least you felt the same.
》VI
It's not like she didn't want to confess her feelings to you. She just didn't know how! Her confession should sweep you right off your feet in her mind, and yet nothing she came up with seemed good enough. Vi hoped that her flirting would get the point across, but she lacked the confidence to go any further than compliments. She just didn't want you to think differently of her and therefore kept her distance for the most part regarding the subject. That is if she could keep it in for lobger than she already has. She always felt so strongly about others, after all.
So, during a little hang out session in a bar somewhere in Zaun, she attempted to find the courage to tell you how she felt. Whilst she went off to go and get you a drink first, however, a drunken man showed up at your side and started flirting you in a rather uncomfortable way. You tried making it clear that you weren't interested, but as he went to grab your arm, a hand slammed in between you two onto the bar table. "Hey, I think they told you no, asshole." "Who the hell are you?" The man barked back, yet Vi didn't back down and simply blocked you from his view with her body. "I'm their girlfriend, now fuck off." She hissed, and the man just rolled his eyes before walking off grumbling.
Silence filled the space in between you two until you chuckled softly. "Girlfriend, huh? I like the sound of that." You hummed, secretly trying to ease her embarrassed mind, that quickly recovered at your words with a sly grin. "You do?" You mirrored her smile with a nod. "Very much so. I'm glad we think alike."
