ok so many wanted to see ballerina mc sooo here's what i think it would be like for them

fem!mc, this isn't a mc x char or reader x char, im not a dancer but my mom did send me to a ballet thingy when i was really young so i kinda know whats it like- dont come after me :( mc was famous back when she was in her world

Ballerina!MC who back in her world was very famous, now finally getting some rest from the popularity so she keeps it a secret. everything is like it would be in the story but some interactions are a bit different. like if she was sent into twst in her ballet dress in full so that and the school's outfit are the only clothes she has in her dresser, so one day Grim or Ace or Deuce just randomly see that and are like- ?????

She tells them and the convo just gets to: "then why dont you just do shows so you could get money?" "yeah that way we can buy tons of tuna cans!" and mc just looks at them with the most straight face ever and says- "no." just no, and not other explanation.

I think that at some point Azul or the twins just learn about this too and for getting more customers they try to get her to work for them but since she doesn't want fo get popular again she says no over and over again.

And I also think the during book 5 Epel would also learn about this, one way or another, but he'd try his best to keep it a secret bc he knows that Vil will be supeeer annoying about mc to gey back to dancing, especially for the VDC. Perhaps Rook also learns about it but for a while keeps it a secert but he will talk to her about it, not to push her for a public appearance, but for himself to, as he says, "watch you at your outmost beauté! "

I also like to think that after Vil overblots he does somehow learn mc was a famous ballerina but he doesn't force them to get back out there, bc unlike what most of the others who thought that Vil will force her to get back to what she did back in her own world, he doesn't. He knows the struggle of popularity and such, although he does indeed think that completely stopping is a waste of talent.

Now, still in book 5 i like to think that mc would try to help Ace, Deuce and Grim to dance better and when Jamil and Kalim see this they think 'damn she's really good' but only Kalim pushes mc to talk more about how she knows all of this (not in a mean way) cuz Kalim says "you! are! so! good! You should be a national dancer!!! I can help you in fai-" and then Jamil just shuts him up bc he sees it in her eyes that she feels really uncomfy talking about this.

Alsoooo I think that Ballerina!MC doesn't hate dancing and doing ballet - Im not saying she dislikes it, the opposite is true- yet the pressure was just a lot that's all, so she dances in Ramadhakle so when Malleus walks around at night and on the day these two meet he sees her dancing away and he is so impressed! The way she moves! The way she shows her true emotions by dance! It truly captivated him! So now he wants to see her dance more.

that's all really 😭 i dont think that anyone in savanaclaw really care?? maybeee Jack???? cuz sport and all- but thats it :/ i dont know much about silver, sebek and lilia for me to write them :(

"petit tips pour les anonymes, si vous assumez pas suffisamment vos propos pour les poster avec votre compte, c’est probablement que vous devriez les garder pour vous." Non c'est juste que tes potes et toi avez fait une profession du fait de tourner en ridicule et d'aggro les gens qui leur parlent ouvertement, confonds pas tout. C'pas psq les gens veulent pas que vous veniez vous acharner sur eux leurs fo et leurs potes pendant 5 ans qu'ils sont pas en accord avec leur opinion. C'pas psq des gens qui vous connaissent pas veulent pas deal avec vous que c'est eux le problème.

Et si on veut parler en anonyme tu vas faire quoi ? J'viens avec un post anon rien que pour te mettre ça dans la tronche : me semble que des meufs t'ont dit de pas parler sur leur projet et que t'as répondu grosso modo que tu fais ce que tu veux. Donc les anon font ce qu'ils veulent ? :)

Ah et pour ton "ouin ouin violence bouh regardez vous avez deux poids deux mesures" : j'peux pas t'aider comme le tone policing est interdit ! Mince alors. Mais t'es drôle quand tu insistes sur le fait que personne n'a à te dicter comment parler puis que tu sors une quote de comment t'estimes que X aurait dû te répondre avant de reblog Y pour te plaindre de son parler de banlieusarde. C'est pas comme si ça fait 4 ans que 90% des gens qui vous lisent vous disent que vous filez de l'anxiété à tout le monde et que vous êtes agressifs et que vous rendez impersonnelle et malveillante une cause juste, et que vous en aviez rien à taper.

Comme t'as dit t'es une bad bitch qui emmerde tout le monde donc vas-y relève-toi mdrrrrrr t'as soudain oublié ta street cred dans le marécage où tes potes ont laissé leurs neurones quand ils ont ficha qu'un post débat poli était trop long et trop complexe pour eux.

Bon étant donné que tout semble tourner autour du « vous » et du « nous » je vais donc en faire de même. Et vu que vous avez tous pris le temps de lire 5k d’une autre personne, vous prendrez certainement le temps de lire les miens n’est-ce pas?

Vous êtes super rapides à brandir la croix et la bannière pour défendre les gens sur des multitudes de sujets tels que la santé mentale, l’accessibilité, le plagiat et autres, mais quand c’est des personnes racisées qui expriment leur lassitude face à une discrimination qu’ils subissent (et donc un mal-être qu’ils ressentent, parce que c’est bien de ça dont on parle, c’est pas un débat ou l’un a tort et l’autre raison c’est un constat fait par des gens qui partagent leurs plaintes et vous votre réponse à ça c’est de les fustiger encore plus) là y’a plus aucune tentative de compréhension parce que vous êtes visiblement tellement étranglés par votre propre conscience que vous le prenez personnellement. 

Vu que vous n'avez à priori pas dotés de suffisamment d'empathie pour parvenir à saisir les nuances d’une situation quand elle ne s’applique pas à votre propre personne : s’offusquer qu’on fasse des généralités (statistiquement correctes, j’insiste encore) sur les membres d’une communauté c’est du même niveau que les hommes qui s’offusquent quand des femmes témoignent de l’oppression qu’elles subissent et dégainent leur #notallmen. Là c’est pareil. On a pas dit qu’absolument toutes les personnes qui jouaient des fcs blancs sur ce forum ou d’autres étaient des racistes, mais si vous n’aviez absolument rien à vous reprocher ça vous serait passé au dessus de la tête et vous auriez pas été violentés au point de faire des amalgames comme si on avait sous entendu que vous étiez des nazis. La preuve étant qu’on a même pas qualifié quiconque de raciste, ce raccourci vous l’avez fait vous même comme des grands ce qui ne fait que prouver davantage que vous êtes au courant de la problématique que cette constatation de sur-représentation blanche représente. Vous êtes en train de vous empaler tout seuls sur votre épée mais vous préférez blâmer le forgeron.

En fait vous êtes tellement aveuglés par votre désir de diabolisation de nos personnages que tous vos arguments se focalisent sur notre façon de parler et/ou de ne pas parler plutôt que sur le message qu’on porte. Vous avez des œillères tellement phénoménales que vous préférez par exemple ignorer que si, on a répondu au long message qui ne comportait que des affabulations et de la réthorique fantasmagorique qui reposait sur de la spéculation totale. Tout ce qu’on dit vous trouvez un moyen de l’interpréter et de le tordre pour concorder au moule de votre vision étriquée de la situation et vu que vous avez l’air d’avoir des soucis d’ordre interpersonnels avec nous vous préférez ne pas chercher à comprendre ce qu’on dit mais plutôt trouver un moyen de nous le renvoyer à la gueule. 

La vérité elle est très simple, on est face à une situation où on a constaté un manque de représentation dans les fcs des forums, et la réponse qu’on a reçu c’est « traitez nous pas de nazis vilains harceleurs haineux ». Un grand écart tellement prodigieux qu’il en ferait faire pâlir les plus grands gymnastes de ce monde.

On est tous d’accord je l’espère sur le postulat que le racisme c’est pas bien, donc pourquoi est-ce que vous cherchez à nuancer le propos uniquement quand la responsabilité de son existence vous incombe aussi? Au lieu de saisir l’occasion de vous remettre en question et d’œuvrer positivement pour faire de cette communauté un espace davantage bienveillant comme vous semblez tant le désirer vous préférez sacrifier ça au prix de votre défense. Quel égoïsme et autocentrisme tragique. 

En tout cas ne te fais pas de soucis pour nous, on se porte tous très bien mentalement, on notera tout du moins la rapidité avec laquelle tu es venue te réjouir et fanfaronner d’un potentiel mal-être de notre part. L’attention portée au mental des gens c’est à sens unique comme toujours mais heureusement on est solides à ce niveau là parce qu’on est profondément convaincus de la noblesse de nos propos et de ce qu’on défend. Les difficultés de l’un ne l’emportent pas sur celle des autres, vous ne savez à priori pas grand chose non plus de ce qu’on vit ni qui on est, mais étant donné qu’on ne pollue pas nos paroles avec des informations d'ordre de l'intime on n’y prête pas attention. Si vous êtes fragiles mentalement et souffrez d’anxiété, j'en suis désolée pour vous mais ça n'a pas sa place dans la discussion et avant tout ça ne vous dispense pas d’être tenus responsables de vos propos et actions lorsque ceux-ci sont de nature discutable. Si vous proférez des propos virulents et invalidants, on vous répondra avec la même énergie parce que jusqu’à preuve du contraire le droit de se défendre ne vous est pas exclusivement réservé, et soudainement vous vous plaignez en disant que ça vous agresse? J’suis au regret de vous annoncer qu’il fallait pas laisser votre bouche écrire un chèque que votre cul est pas apte à encaisser. 

Maintenant que ça c’est fait, je te réponds aux critiques envers moi et moi seule. Par rapport au sujet de ma critique vis à vis de l’anonymat, oui vous faites ce vous voulez, et moi j’ai pareillement le droit d’exprimer mon avis sur la question. C’est ce que j’arrête pas de dire depuis le début mais vu qu’encore une fois vous préférez comprendre ce que vous voulez je vais continuer à radoter.

Mon message avait pas pour but de « chouiner », il avait pour but de retourner le principal argument qui est employé depuis le début de cette histoire pour dévaloriser nos paroles et décrédibiliser l’importance de notre revendication étant : vous êtes violents, et même si on est d’accords on cautionne pas. Le fait étant que là y’a de la violence réelle et tangible qui a été proférée mais j’vois personne en aller de son petit texte et rebloguer en masse pour exprimer oh combien ça le remue de voir de l’agressivité. Étrange phénomène. Ça prouve bien que le problème de notre soit-disant violence il est épidermique et que le cœur de vos reproches envers nous est lui bien viscéral. 

La vérité c’est qu’à la fin de la journée c’est chacun avec sa propre conscience et vu la virulence avec laquelle vous défendez et justifiez votre caractère j’ai l’impression que la vôtre est bien bien lourde. J’ai jamais dit que j’étais une bad bitch, jamais mentionné la moindre street cred mais merci pour le compliment, et tu sais quoi pour te remercier c’est ton jour de chance j’emmerde pas tout le monde mais j’vais mettre un point d’honneur à t’emmerder toi tout particulièrement, des bisous.

[reflectionsofthesea]

Some cool expressions in Bergamasco (the dialect from the town I was born and raised in, Bergamo) and a comparison with italian.

Bergamasco is a very interesting dialect, because it borrows terms, sounds and letters from both german and french! This makes it sound very different from italian and other italian dialects.

A lot of grammatical components like the way verbs are structured, the sounds and pronunciation, and articles, are very similar to german and french.

And it also gives bergamasco-speakers like myself an advantage in speaking german, finnish or other languages that have the vowels ä, ö, ü (or the finnish y), since we already know how to pronounce them!

(green: Bergamasco, white: italian) Some expressions:

se fet? cosa fai? = what are you doing?

so mia. non lo so. = i don't know.

n'doe? dove? = where?

n'do set? dove sei? = where are you?

mochela. smettila. = stop it.

lassa sta'. lascia stare. = don't bother/leave it alone.

fa frecc. fa freddo. = it's cold.

fa colt. fa caldo. = it's hot.

mola mia. non mollare. = don't let go/don't give up.

fa' mia isè. non fare così. = don't be like that.

n'dondaret? dove vai? = where are you going?

n'che manera? perché? = in what way/ means 'why?'

borlà zò cadere = fall down

desdes fo'./rampa fo'. svegliati/muoviti = wake up, hurry up

gregnà ridere = to laugh

usa drè urlare dietro = to scream at someone

porta drè negot. non portarti dietro niente. = don't bring anything (with you)

lèa de terra levare da terra = scream/argue at someone so much you're lifting them from the ground

an va? andiamo? = shall we go? (from french on y va?)

so dré a maià. sto mangiando. = i'm eating. (from french  je suis en train de manger)

usa mia. non urlare. = don't shout

Some words:

rüt sporco = dirt (from german)

hümmia scimmia = monkey

cì maiale = pig

ca'al cavallo = horse

formagèr formaggiaio/lattaio = cheese maker (from french fromager)

articiòk carciofo = artichoke (from french artichaut)

oeuf, öf uovo = egg (from french oeuf)

frèr ferro = iron (from french fer)

rasga sega = handsaw

scèta bambina = little girl

Bergamasco is mostly spoken in the countryside and especially in the mountain villages and hills around Bergamo by older generations. It is not as commonly spoken in the main city, or used by younger generations. I learned it from my mom, and we speak it in the house daily. You can often hear it spoken by handymen, construction builders, artisans, and older men in the town.

A political party popular in Lombardia (Bergamo's Region) proposed years ago that Bergamasco should be thought in schools in Bergamo and around the province, but the idea was rejected. The sad reality is that Bergamasco, like a lot of italian dialects, is in danger of disappearing due to how less and less it's spoken and taught to younger generations. I personally really love Bergamasco and I love how unique and cool it sounds, and how it clearly shows the history of Bergamo as well: we went through the Austrian invasion, the German influence and also trades/exchanges with France, that contributed in the years to make the dialect sound the way it does now. It's a collection of my town's history and cultural exchanges and interaction (even if unfortunate ones, with Germany and Austria)

Most people from Bergamo and that speak Bergamasco have a very prominent specific accent (I do!) even when speaking normal italian. People from Bergamo are considered very matter-of-fact and straightforward, and the dialect reflects this nature very well: a lot of words and verbs are shorter than their italian counterpart, and the borrowed sounds from German make it sound harsher/more direct than italian does.

Bergamaschi wanted to avoid speaking so badly they even made their dialect as short and direct as possible, so they could use less words than regular italian and get to the point quicker.

MAKE ASTROLOGY GREAT AGAIN

La mascherina FFP2 è una di quelle invenzioni che dovrebbero piacere a tutti: economica, tecnologica (non sembra ma lo è), priva di effetti collaterali, niente farmaci, protegge dalle infezioni aeree in modo altamente efficace e permette lo svolgimento delle attività quotidiane anche durante un'epidemia.

Perché allora, nel mezzo della più grande pandemia del secolo (ma ce ne saranno altre peggiori, non temete) abbiamo visto gente inveire violentemente contro le innocue e utili mascherine? Perché tutto fa brodo come pretesto per dividere, creare polarizzazione e cercare di capitalizzare su di essa, anche una mascherina. I movimenti no-mask, nati negli USA e da noi scimmiottati da Salxxni e simili, sono stati l'avanguardia dello sciacallaggio politico e comunicativo legato al COVID-19, Ne ho già parlato molte volte durante la pandemia.

La strategia è talmente brutale che cascarci sembra quasi puerile: gli spin doctor di certi movimenti passano praticamente la giornata a sperimentare sui social pretesti per polarizzare, creare divisioni, confusione. Se questi memi tossici attecchiscono, diventano un ottimo sistema per creare artificialmente una minoranza scontenta (no-mask, no-vax, no-sticazz) di cui ti fai portavoce politico, ma le cui istanze sono appunto create in laboratorio, non vere esigenze dal basso. Queste ultime , le istanze vere, sono poche, ben note, già appannaggio tradizionale di altri partiti, e soprattutto sono difficili da accontentare perché richiedono soluzioni reali e non memi.

I movimenti no-mask, come i no-xy che seguiranno, sono creature politiche, gonfiate dai media (anch'essi in cerca di polarizzazione) ad uso e consumo di strati sempre più imponenti di analfabeti funzionali, che abbiamo o meno la laurea in tasca.

A fornire la base pseudo-scientifica a quel movimento è stata la famigerata Great Barrington Declaration, un documento dell'ottobre 2020 privo di referenze e prove scientifiche, nato sotto l'egida del think tank ultra-liberista American Institute for Economic Research, che incitava a evitare lockdown e perseguire l'infezione naturale per inseguire una altrettanto fantomatica e immunità di gregge. Un'idea delirante e fallimentare anche alla luce di quello che abbiamo visto durante la pandemia e anche oggi, dove nuove varianti virali continuano a circolare perfino tra la popolazione pluri-immunizzata e vaccinata. Una bischerata ridicolizzata da qualunque ricercatore e biologo(a) degno(a) di questo nome, ma che portava la firma di professoroni dell' Ivy League come Jay Bhattacharya (Stanford), Sunetra Gupta (Oxford), Martin Kulldorff (Harvard, verrà successivamente licenziato).

I tre luminari si distinguono per la frequentazione di ambienti di ultra destra trumpiani, dove faranno carriera, e per le posizioni contrarie al controllo dell'epidemia, alla vaccinazione dei bambini, all'obiezione all'uso delle mascherine e simili amenità. Quello straccio di documento, menzionato a pappagallo e mentula canis da milioni di troll e decerebrati sui social, cancellato in migliaia di esemplari dalle mie bacheche e da quelle di chi si occupava seriamente della questione, ha offerto (su gentile richiesta, come avrete capito) la base "scientifica" e ideologica all'intera galassia trumpiana per cavalcare il negazionismo, creare polarizzazione dall'aria fritta e approfittare cinicamente di una popolazione disorientata e spaventata e dei morti che si accumulavano. Parliamo dei giorni in cui gli USA marcavano record drammatici di vittime del virus, mentre Trump, presidente, litigava con Fauci e suggeriva di bere varechina contro il Covid. Trump con il Covid che per lanciare il suo messaggio saliva nell'auto presidenziale senza mascherina.

Oggi i vecchi favori vengono ricompensati. Trump ha oggi nominato uno dei firmatari di quel documento, Jay Bhattacharya, a capo degli NIH, il più importante centro di ricerca pubblica del mondo, e soprattutto il maggiore distributore di fondi per la ricerca statunitense. Chiunque faccia ricerca biomedica negli USA prima poi fa domanda per un grant NIH. Chiunque si occupi di biomedicina nel mondo conosce l'impatto degli NIH nel sistema della ricerca medica globale. Dopo il ministero della salute in mano al complottista Kennedy, il più grande fulcro di ricerca americana, e mondiale, è usato come premio per un amico del vincitore, un sostanziale negazionista, latore di teorie pseudo-scientifiche. Guai se alla prossima emergenza Trump si ritrovasse con un nuovo Fauci a scuotere la testa e spiegargli la scienza. Meglio uno yes man. Pazienza se poi non ci capisce niente. Mentre all'orizzonte si profila l'ombra sempre più minacciosa di una nuova pandemia- stavolta di influenza aviaria- che con una letalità (finora registrata) superiore al 50% potrebbe far correre anche il più accanito no-vax a farsi iniettare sieri sperimentali spintonando le vecchiette in fila per il vaccino.

L'America di Trump rischia di diventare la versione occidentale della russia di putin: un sistema puramente clientelare, basato su rapporti di forza, sudditanza e amicizia, dove pesi e contrappesi sono eliminati, inclusi quelli scientifici e tecnologici e dove l'elettorato vive in una bolla di realtà alternativa. Un sistema anti-meritocratico, dove si fa strada per contiguità politica, cosa che l'America non è mai stata, e che noi invece abbiamo sempre avuto.

Potremmo chiederci come è possibile che sistemi democratici e potenti facciano questa fine, un'idea ce l'ho, l'ho già espressa. Ma ce lo chiederemo con calma. Magari mentre respiriamo particelle di H5N1 per costruirci una bella immunità di gregge.

[fuck-i-like-too-much-stuff]

PART THREE TO MY NOT-SO-SMALL-ANYORE ADDITION TO THE PROFESSOR PEEM AND PROFESSOR Q TAG

Part one and two:

Ao3:

.

.

.

The airport is three hours away from the university, the flight is one hour away from the airport and Peem is about to bring earthquakes with how much his knees are bouncing up and down under the table.

“Hia, are you okay?” 

“What?” Peem, having grown too accustomed to only being called Professor Peem these days, startles on catching sight of Toey in the staffroom.

“I asked if you're okay.”

Before he could answer, a group of his students accumulated at the door, seeking permission to enter.

“Come in, you guys. Are you here for submissions?” 

They don't answer, feet dug into the floor and eyes trained onto Toey. 

“Guys, I get that you're all fine arts students and must observe the world and what not. But the staring is getting out of hand these days with you lot.”

Again, no answer. This time, however their feet move backwards and take them on the same path they had arrived from. 

“What was that all about?” Toey's eyebrows move towards each other and Peem almost laughs at the proof that he is not the only one who sees his students acting weird. 

“Hell if I know. They've been this way for four weeks now and I still can not fathom why.”

“And what's going on with you? Jae Fai and Hia Fang told me you haven't been taking care of yourself.”

“I'm fine, Toey. He's coming back today. And I'm fine.”

“Alright. Then I'll go prepare for my lecture.”

.

.

.

Peem had been grateful to not have any lectures today. Peem had been grateful to be in the staffroom and do personal consultings for an hour and then proceed to do the gradings Q unloaded on him, after complaining about how not a single one of them was in sequence. Till an hour back, that was.

Peem was now contemplating his life choices of putting the gallery on autopilot to become a professor. A professor, who is either being pitied or hated by the first years, because if Q hadn't asked him to rearrange the assignments, he wouldn't have had anything to do. Hell, even Toey has more work to do than him and he gives two guest lectures a year which are both just additional guides.

He can't be hated, right? He did pretty well the first two years. This is actually just Phum's business trips taking a toll on him. Yes, that's it. He will be back to his normal, not nauseated and not puffy eyed self in just a couple more hours.

Couple more hours, that's doable.

“Professor Peem?” He realizes his eyes have been shut closed for the past ten minutes. 

“Yeah?” He looks up to find the teacher's aid peeking through the door.

“Professor Q is asking for you. Could you please go to lecture hall C.”

The hallways he walks through fall into a gradient of heavier and heavier silence as he nears lecture hall C. 

“Prof Q?” he asks, leaning into the deadly silent class. 

“Professor Peem. Yes, please come in.” While Peem can't ever digest his best friend of twenty years talking to him with this much respect, in their professional environment he has learned not to trip over his feet because of it.

“You mentioned that our students have been behaving somewhat weird these past weeks, right?”

“Yeah… what's going on?”

“Let's hear what one of them has just said. Right, Wai?”

Peem turns to find Wai amongst the students, everyone does the same and eyes converge on the boy sitting with a look that could compete with ghosts and win.

“Professor, I'm- we are so sorry. We didn't know- we didn't understand, or actually even try to understand anything. We're so sorry.”

“Okay I'm fed up of asking what's going on, it's the only question I've been asking for four weeks now. So will someone please tell me what on earth is going on?” The irritation in Peem's voice cracks through his throat and for the first time in four weeks, he is not getting a single eye contact from his audience.

“Remember the theme sequence they all messed up and I asked you to help with correcting it? I mentioned it in class today and it turns out it wasn't a mistake or a misread instruction.” Q's voice feels as if it was dipped in melted metal.

“They've been convinced that you and I were dating, that I cheated on you with Toey and left you to go with him to Europe.”

If Peem was nauseated before, he does not know how to describe the current pit in his stomach. “Is this what- is this what the looks, all those pity filled looks, were about? You all thought, not that it was any of your business, that Q cheated on me.”

“Who cheated on who now?” A voice pierces through the suspended tension of the room and Peem truly does not believe in the ground anymore. There standing in the doorway is his boyfriend, who did not cheat on him in the very least, with a bouquet of roses. His boyfriend, for who's presence his entire being had been aching for two whole months now. His boyfriend, who looks much more confused than Peem is himself.

.

.

.

 “How was this any of their business in the first place? We were never once interested  in Prof Po's love life.” Q has been fuming for the course of the past forty five minutes in which they have managed to cancel class for the rest of the day, and leave.

“And to be honest, we didn't even care about it. It's a professional relationship.”  

Q and Toey's apartment is just a seven minute drive from the Uni, making it extremely convenient for Peem to crash on a comfortable sofa right after a long day Although right now, its a comfortable sofa in addition to his boyfriend's side, and arm and hands and scent and existence.

He knows and agrees with Q with his whole heart, and he knows so do Toey and Phum. However there is only so much agreement one can do in his state. He nods off to sleep, the first deep sleep after weeks.

The next thing he recalls is waking up the door closing on the opposite side of the car, watching Phum make his way to his side and open the door for him.

“I told you, I can open the door for myself.”

“I know you can. I, as a gentleman, just don't feel like letting you.”

“And you do, as a gentleman, feel like letting me walk all the way to the front door and then through the hall and to the bedroom-” assuming his mumbles aren't coherent enough to make it to Phum's ears, he tries to climb out of the car. 

His feet don't touch the ground, Phum is carrying him up to the front door and through the hallways and to the bedroom and not once did Peem's feet come near touching the ground.

“You didn't have to do that. I was only joking.”

“I don't mind an excuse to carry my boyfriend around- just as I don't need an excuse to sit on his lap.”

Maybe there is more agreement Peem can do in his state.

tag game du rpg ♡

règles du jeu:créer un nouveau billet en copiant-collant les questions ci-dessous, y répondre, puis tagger d'autres rpgistes !

Merci à @soeurdelune pour le tag!

depuis combien de temps fais-tu du rp? — 20 ans et quelques

quel était le premier personnage que tu as créé? — c'était une demi-elfe, sur un forum multivers final fantasy, j'avais 9 ou 10 ans, le personnage n'était pas plus développé que son nom et son statut.

quels sont les faceclaims que tu utilisais souvent à tes débuts? — j'ai commencé par du forum RP avec avatars dessinés, donc c'étaient surtout des images qui trainaient sur internet, puis j'ai eu quelques avatars tirés d'univers d'HP ou de manga (du Clamp notamment).

y a-t-il un genre/univers dans lequel tu n'aimes pas du tout rp? — le post-apo, mais je n'aime pas l'univers en général. les fos célébrités aussi.

quelles sont les dynamiques entre personnages/types de liens que tu aimes le plus? — ça dépend vraiment de mon humeur / envie du moment.

dans quels fandoms ou univers aimes-tu le plus rp? — sur forum, c'est généralement du surnaturel ou du city, en 1v1 j'aime beaucoup l'horreur, le surnaturel, la scifi (inventé ou genre star wars), parfois tiré de jeux vidéo, j'aime aussi beaucoup ce qui a trait au folklore ou aux légendes urbaines.

un personnage que tu ne joues plus actuellement mais que tu aimerais reprendre? — Stigandr, mais à chaque univers où je le joue, il finit par devenir le personnage antagonique - il est imbu de lui-même, hautain, couard, méprisant, mauvais père, yada yada. Mais c'est une dynamique que j'aime bien jouer, surtout dans des univers où il faut donner le meilleur de soi-même.

y a-t-il des archétypes de personnages que tu joues souvent? — les gens simples, souvent teuteus, ou avec de gros défauts sociaux ou physiques qui les handicape pas mal. des personnages qui sont malicieux également, j'aime le côté très chaotique.

y a-t-il un livre ou un écrit autre qui t'as beaucoup influencé·e pour écrire? — Chiens de la nuit de Kent Anderson, Les conditions idéales de Mokhtar Amoudi, L'eau du lac n'est jamais douce de Giulia Caminito, Les enfants des riches de Wu Xiaole, Le frère impossible d'Alexandre Feraga.

une recommandation pour finir (livre, film, ou pourquoi pas un forum)? — La série La première Loi de Joe Abercrombie si vous aimez la fantasy et en roman graphique, la série Il faut flinguer Ramirez si vous avez envie de rigoler un peu (ou Ecoute, jolie Marcia, de Marcello Quintanilha, pas du tout pour rigoler, mais le style graphique mouah).

NEWS 2024

j'ai changé de pseudo rpgique, ceux qui m'ont sur discord savent c'est quoi.

je suis comblée rpgiquement, merci à ce forum d'accueillir tous mes personnages.

désormais je ne ferais plus aucune concession ; on me manque de respect, on me parle mal, on m'agresse/menace = je bloque. ça m'arrive tellement rarement (deux fois heureusement) mais c'est terminé, je ne pardonne plus. Et si je bloque, c'est que la personne est vraiment allé trop loin. oui j'ai décidé de ne plus me prendre la tête en 2024. J'arrête de pardonner à tout va, de laisser le bénéfice du doute aux gens (surtout quand de base je les sens pas), je ne me laisse plus marcher sur les pieds. Je sais ce que je veux et SURTOUT ce que je ne veux pas. Si tu m'aimes pas, fait comme moi : me parle pas. Ne fais pas l'hypocrite sur les serveurs/forums en m'accueillant pour au final cracher sur mal gueule. Si t'as un soucis avec moi, viens me le dire au lieu de garder ça pour toi, c'est très simple. Bref, la communication hein. tout ça pour dire à ceux qui ont la même sensation que moi, ou qui sont actuellement dans la même vision que moi : le rpg c'est fait pour s'amuser, pas pour qu'on ignore vos fiches présa/liens, pour qu'on crache sur votre gueule, qu'on vous mette la pression sur les rps/liens. Si vous avez besoin d'un mois pour répondre à un rp et deux semaines à un autre rp :: c'est ok ! Si un lien proposé ne vous tente pas/plus :: c'est ok ! Si vous décidez de couper les ponts avec un rpgiste (comme couper les ponts avec quelqu'un irl de votre vie) :: c'est ok et peu importe la raison ! il faut arrêter de culpabiliser, d'avoir peur, de se sentir mal et surtout de se forcer à rester sur un fo qui nous accueille mal ou qui ne nous tente plus. Il faut s'écouter, c'est le mieux à faire.

The Legends of Modern Horizons 3 (fan fiction thread)

It has come to my attention that Modern Horizons 3 showcases a lot of cool characters yet doesn't give them any lore. So I will do it. Feel free to add your own lore for the characters (if anyone else actually sees it)

I will add I will not being doing lore on returning characters. So no Breya, Kaalia, Ashling, Laelia, Rosheen, K'rrik, or any of the planeswalkers or Eldrazi.

Starting off with everyone's favorite bird, Nadu, WInged Wisom

"When Kefnet fell and arose as a God-Eternal, all of Amonkhet wept, except, surprisngly, for Nadu. In spite of being one of Kefnet's most devoted followers, or perhaps because of it, Nadu understood that even the gods have limits, and decided that the best way to honor his memory was to share the teachers of The Mindful with all. Gods may die, but knowledge is eternal"

Imskir Iron-Eater

"Hailing from a race of metal-consuming demons on Mirrodin, Imskir Iron-Eater was named for his surprisingly picky diet. In spite of his violent nature and lack of any behavioral regulations, Imskir was an invaluable asset in the mining industry, regularly outright eating unwanted iron deposits to make way for the far more precious Darksteel."

Phelia, Exuberant Shepherd

"Jinnie Fay has had many prized show dogs, but perhaps none as beloved as Phelia. Unfortunately, Phelia never earned a blue ribbon because of her tendency to disappear right before the award ceremony. At some point Jinnie Fay decided to throw in the towel and let Phelia simply run free, and she's only ever been seen for a maximum of 10 seconds at a time after that day"

Kudo, King Among Bears

"While Ayula is the greatest warrior in the Empire of Bears, her consort, Kudo, is much more interested in diplomatic endeavors. He uses his unusual ability to transform others into bears in order to broker peace deals of mutual understanding. Although, in the events of a truly vile and capricious threat, he is more than willing to let his beloved do what must be done"

Shilgengar, Sire of Famine

"Angels pose a constant threat to the demons of Innistrad, but many demons were more than content to simply slay them as they come. Shilgengar, however, concocted a plan to slay the angels once and for all. Bringing a great famine upon Stensia, he told a young alchemist named Edgar Markov that angel blood was both nutritious and plentiful in this land (and he wasn't lying either). And as Edgar drank the angel blood, Shilgengar unknowingly created the first vampire, and brought about his own eventual demise"

Phlage, Titan of Fire's Fury

"When the first Therosians discovered how to create fire, they knew not how to harness it. That fire burned and spread for months, murdering countless. In its burning it gave itself form, and thus, Phlage was born. While the Therosians eventually discovered how to properly use fire, how to create hearths and blacksmiths, Phlage would always arrive when it burned too bright, wreaking havoc upon the world until Klothys was born, sealing away Phlage for eons"

Herigast, Erupting Nullkite

"Innistradi dragons are remarkably rare, and solitary creatures, but perhaps none more so than Herigast. One day while Avacyn was corrupted, it awoke from its slumber and terrorized a small town in Gavony, shocking the townsfolk into fleeing the entire province. Little did the townsfolk know, that Herigast was protecting them. For it knew that an ancient entity was coming, and it would destroy them if Avacyn were to fall. It fell to the corrupting influence of Emrakul, however in its last conscious moments it rejoiced, for its last act was protecting the town that nurtured it to health generations ago"

The Necrobloom (Thanks to u/FoundWords on reddit for this incredible quote)

"When I die, child, bury me in the foul, fertile soil by the roots of the Necrobloom, that I might return to you once more."

Skoa, Embermage

"Born in the great desert of Jamuura, Skoa was always fascinated by the great volcanos and dragons of Shiv but was told it was far too dangerous to travel there. Skoa was never a really good listener. Pledging her allegiance to the plane of pure heat, Wildfire, she hopes to one day concur the mountains of Shiv, not for glory or revenge, but simply because she can"
