[lazysublimeengineer]

Everybody's hyping up Isagi and Kaiser and yapping about genius and prodigy shit

BUT GAGAMARU IS THE REAL FUCKING HERO OF BM.

FUCKING BLOCKING RIN'S GOAL LIKE THAT⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️

Gagamaru is cool as shit. No fucking drama. Just doing what he can as a goalkeeper. Mad respect for this boy.

If Gagamaru's value and bid isn't even in being in the top ten what even is the fucking point of it until the end

[erenfox]

so you mean to tell me that WE GOT TAYLOR BEING THE ONLY ONE SLEEPING IN A VERY CUTESY TYPICAL ROMANTIC POSE ON BENS SHOULDER AND AIDEN HUGGING ASHLYN WHILE SLEEPING, AND YET THEYRE STILL NOT GONNA BECOME CANON???

hahahaha.

I wonder what Techno's response would be if Tommy won in the pit. Because he's a pretty 'might makes right' dude so I'm trying to figure out if he'd just shrug and be like 'ok I was in the wrong and Tommy got his revenge so it's all fair and square' (while being secretly frazzeled and quadruple down about training harder and stockpiling max everything because Tommy??? Tommy beat him???).

Unless he doesn't see his life for Tubbo's as a fair trade, and thinks along the lines of Tommy's life taken in retribution. Because Techno is super pro revenge, and it could be a 'hey! I didn't have a choice killing Tubbo! That's not fair!' reaction. Techno pretty consistently wants the last word on violence, cataclysmically so, but at the very least will leave it there as is instead of extracting payment over and over and over. So I think there's a real possibility of him scheming up revenge, stockpiling like crazy, and waiting for the proper moment so it doesn't look like he's going back on his word.

Cause like. Techno does say 'win or lose, it stays in the pit'. But he's also fully going in intending to win. He's skewing the odds in his favor with strategic saturation boosts and is very confident in his abilities. When he offers Tommy an out, it's because he wants this to be a choice to fight and then drop it no hard feelings, not because Techno thinks he'll lose.

But if he did. If he did, and was humiliated in front of everyone. If his combat abilities were called into question because he lost to Tommy. If Technoblade 'never dies' lost a life. Well. I think he'd be put in a tailspin. He'd be analyzing every single second in that pit, over and over, to figure out what went wrong. Playing in his head on repeat as his strategist's mind turns against him.

Because as much as Techno tries to twist W--'s egging and goading and escalating into a de-ecalatory measure, Tommy is definitely still holding hard feelings after the pit. And I think Techno would, too, as much as he tries to insist it stays in the pit.

That’s a wrap😔 here are my 10 pics to sum up our season (my personal fav is number 9)

Sooo many things just did not go their way this season and I hope lots of change comes

This was a very flawed team but our star players made it fun to watch and our qb came off a scary wrist injury playing like an mvp

Now onto the off season that I have no doubt is going to be insane🙉😭

yapping about Briar. fellow Briar enjoyers assemble.

okay okay i don’t make it too obvious (or maybe i do, i wouldn’t know) but briar is my personal favorite character. i think about where the stories of all the characters would go and what their arcs would be a lot, but hers in particular is really important to me.

so i wanna talk about it.

first of all, she’s narcoleptic coded, right. we all know that. but her mom on the other hand reads to me, like, an alcoholic mother? and her dad is just willfully ignorant. either way, there’s a huge sense of neglect going on in that family. i mean go figure why briar would be the one doing most of the work raising her brothers. and of course she’s a party girl, because who’s gonna stop her? her parents? see yeah exactly.

so i don’t think it’s unreasonable to say she doesn’t have very strong parental figures in her life, at least not at home. but, and now you have to really hear me out about this one, i think baba yaga could take up a parental role in her life.

i know it isn’t much, but the seeds for her having at least a hint of a connection with baba yaga are there.

in the webisode “Stark Raven Mad”, baba yaga scolds briar for rambling about her party, and then as the commotion picks up she’s still exercising authority over briar in particular.

then there’s thronecoming, wherein, when briar is sulking at the dance, upon noticing the picture on the projector, she asks baba yaga for answers, who provides them.

and then skipping all the way to epic winter, after the girls become a little creeped out by her mannerisms and book it, briar is the one who makes sure to peak back in and give a parting remark.

so i think there’s potential there to be explored. her feeling neglected at home and then finding solace in another adult at school would be neat.

but the fact that it’s baba yaga is important, so just put a pin in that and we’ll circle back to it.

now, i think out of the core four, she was (at least at first) the hardest to actually pin-point what the future of her story could look like. with raven, i think it’s pretty clear her journey is just continuing to combat the prejudices of the world as she fights for change, apple is now pretty much on a path to figuring out her own future as ruler of a kingdom and what that’s going to entail, and maddie is the goofball that’s there to have fun and be supportive along the way.

then there’s briar. and, let me be clear, no, in my mind that girl is not sleeping for 100 years with where things are heading; in the main universe of the story, briar will be free of the sleeping beauty destiny.

but it’s like, if she’s not gonna sleep, what more is there to actually do with her? what direction COULD her life go in? because if she’s no longer fated to sleep 100 years of her life away, then she can’t just party like there’s no tomorrow anymore. she’d need to decide what she actually wants to do with her life.

and i think i have an idea.

i mentioned her narcoleptic coding at the start with intent to bring it up again. see, you might notice that a lot of the fairytale aspects of ever after high can be read as allegories for real-world problems. for example, hunter and ashlynn’s relationship is treated in their world the same way society may look at queer couples or biracial couples. or how raven’s mom being trapped in a mirror is their world equivalent to not paying child support.

with that kind of correlation in mind, i think treating briar’s curse as a condition could open up an interesting opportunity. i think, in their world, curses as a whole could be viewed as a separate branch of medical specialization, with briar spearheading this notion of thought.

we know briar is well-versed in chemythstry already. in the webisode “Briar’s Study Party” she makes note of the fact that she’s been studying forever-after, and she demonstrates enough knowledge in the subject to enthusiastically teach it to her friends, who all end up acing their tests on it as a result.

i think this is something she could potentially make a career out of. i think she could come to the conclusion that she wants to be able to help break curses for people everywhere, and could pursue learning to develop potions and elixirs to do so.

which could happen under baba yaga’s tutelage.

picture this: briar declares her newfound goal, to which baba yaga offers to teach briar all she knows in order to achieve what she’s set her sights on. briar—with an ounce of hesitance—accepts, and baba yaga officially takes her under her wing with the intent of mastering sorcery.

obviously, she wouldn’t lose who she is in this. she’s still gonna be an impulsive, adrenaline junkie who desperately needs a screentime limit on her mirrorphone. but in this process, she’d be rounded out by baba yaga and would in turn mature a bit from the experience. she’d get serious about life, but she wouldn’t let go of who she is at heart.

this could lead to her becoming the resourceful one in the main group. like on adventures, she’d be able to pull out a potion or whip something up (because i’m not going to let raven’s magic make her too o.p. she’s gotta have limitations) as a solution to problems. she could really have a role that proves useful and important to the story.

that’s my ideal pitch for where to take briar’s character.

Could you maybe do a cute small prompt for a reader with Hayden. Like it’s lazy rainy morning and reader kinda wants to cuddle with Hayden cause they’re really sleepy.

hi anon, this took a bit longer than expected to write this out but here we are! enjoy this adorable hunk of a man in this drabble 💗🌺

A loud crack of thunder reluctantly pulls you out of a comfortable sleep. Not that you truly mind when you can feel your lover’s fingers lazily carding through your hair. You stretch against the wide expanse of Hayden’s chest, letting out a squeak when he chuckles and brings you impossibly closer into his touch. 

He kisses the top of your hair and whispers, “G’mornin’ love.”

You smiled softly into his linen shirt, taking in his scent of sandalwood and coffee. The rain continues to pelt down on the windows outside, but you can barely perceive it when you’re happily entranced by this domestic scene. Eventually, you push yourself up to behold all of your lover, and you reach over to caress his stubbled cheek. 

“Good morning to you too, darling.”

He leans into your touch with a love-laden sigh. “I love when you call me that.”

You grin. “I know.”

One of his hands traces the spot where your hip meets your waist, a languid smile gracing his features. Lightning flashes across Hayden’s cozy bedroom, illuminating his chiseled face. His eyes bore deeply into yours, and you know that he wants nothing more than for you to kiss him. Before you can, he asks in a roundabout way:

“Well… Do you know what else I would love for you to do right now?”

An opportunity to tease him. You hum in faux consideration, tapping your index finger against your chin. 

“No. Now, what would that be, darling?”

He lets out another one of his hearty chuckles and squeezes your waist.

“You’re such a brat, pullin’ my leg. Kiss me, darlin’.”

“All you had to do was ask.” You mumble through a smirk, leaning down to connect your lips to his.

It feels good to have him so close. Having his soft lips exploring your own, his hands traversing your exposed skin, guideless. Lightning strikes again, this time farther in distance, as you pull away from him. 

“I suppose we should start our day?” You ask him, brushing a stray lock of hair away from his eyes.

Hayden gently tugs you forward to lay back down on his chest, and you do so without resistance. 

“Let’s wait out the storm together in bed. Henrietta is surprisingly patient when she has to be.”
