Top 22 of 2022 End of the Year Game Tag

Well, as I understand it, I, too, have been drawn into this tag game. At least I was to mention @otomiya-tickles and @happyandticklish, thanks for that, in any case, I'm glad to join)

Part 1: Fandom Faves

1. Favorite new fandoms of the year You know, there are no exclusively new fandoms this year. Rather, my love for a couple of old fandoms caught fire in a new way. Like Mob Psycho 100 or Psychonauts. Oh! Milo Murphy's Law, Kaitou Joker, Inside Job, Super 4 (this two actually new…) and Percy Jackson too btw! Balan Wonderworld is deserves a mention too Okay, okay, that's all, otherwise I'll just go into the enumeration of ALL fandoms in general, because I don't know how to choose my favorite

2. Favorite new ships since this year If I lower my impudent ships with s/i, then I will say: Milo/Amanda (Milo Murphy's Law), Annabeth/Percy (Percy Jackson) Well, obviously Terumob and Shoritsu (Mob Psycho 100), haha

3. Favorite anime/TV show of the year Oh I also started watching Supernatural this year and I should keep watching (while I'm stuck on the first episodes of season 4), I definitely like this show Speaking of anime - Mob Psycho 100 and Kaitou Joker, I haven't really watched anything else huh

4. Favorite movie of the year Complicated question, yet I watch a lot of things, but at the same time I remember a little… Only Klaus (2019) and Rise of the Guardians come to mind, which I'm going to review closer to the holidays

5. Favorite character of the year Shigeo Kageyama (Mob Psycho 100), Rasputin Aquato (Psychonauts), Mini-Mini-King (Kaitou Joker), Stoll Brothers (Percy Jackson), Brett Hand (Insider Job)… *mumbles in enumeration*

6. Favorite soundtrack of the year The Meat Circus from Psychonauts (this tune haunted my mind for a month while I was playing the second part and actively sat in the fandom, haha) Crazy Necross from Vangers GO GO REIGEN! from Mob Psycho 100 which I just found but I love it and want to set it as my ringtone lol The whole Gris ost (the ending of the game makes me cry when I need to…), the whole Beetlejuice east… I guess that's it, heh.

7. Favorite book/manga/comic of the year Percy Jackson book series (honestly, I promise myself to still find time and read the Mark of Athena from the second cycle TwT)

8. Favorite game of the year Psychonauts 2, this game literally became the first platformer (well, in general, a game where you need to run, jump and beat enemies) that I went through completely And Little Inferno too

9. Highlight of this year to remember Entrance exams and college admissions, god it was this summer but it feels like it's been YEARS

Part 2: Community Review

10. Favorite Tumblr moments of 2022 To be honest, I haven't been as active on tumblr this year, so I have no idea what happened here in a year. That is, perhaps I know, but most likely I do not attach any importance to this.

11. Favorite fan art of the year Oh, there were two memorable fanarts that come to mind here and here

12. Favorite fic of the year Can I just say that ALL of Kanene's MP100 fics are my favorites at the moment? Like, so much so that I can't remember anything else lol

13. Favorite ask game of the year It's not like I'm involved in a lot of that, is it..? Maybe that recent fandom thing? This was fun

14. My top achievements as a writer/artist/creator/blogger The fact that I was able to get out of the shell and start interacting with really cool people from tk community, and the fact that I literally carring the mp100 fandom with my sketches, lmao

15. My own best fic/post of the year If we talk about the post that I am proud of, then this is one of the last posts with the Kageyama bros. I think I did a really good job on the poses this time

16. My most underappreciated fic/post of the year My posts are related to mp100 Beetlejuice!AU, because I want to develop this idea, but I think that people are not very interested in it

17. A post of mine that got more popularity than expected I'm still surprised by the popularity of that art with Shoritsu, which was one of my first posts on mp100 here, and probably one of my most popular posts in general…

18. Something I changed on my blog since this year Well, my blog is only a year old, so I can't say anything definitive…

Part 3: Next Year

I have such a spontaneous lifestyle that I don't have anything planned for next year huh, so I can't seem to answer the questions below…

19. Something I didn’t post this year but would like to do next year 20. Goals for next year 21. 2023 releases I look forward to the most

Part 4: Spreading Love

22. Shoutouts to people who made my 2022 a better year Well, then I'll throw everything under keep reading

@candyheartedchy, thank you for the fact that formally it was with you that my acquaintance with the existence of such a thing as s/i and f/o began! Your art is amazing and inspiring! @kanene-yaaay, I am sincerely grateful for every reblog of yours, like, this is one of the main incentives why I draw now. You are so emotional and bright, it's just amazing! @misaki-just-doodles and @we-dont-talk-about-potato-nonono, yes, we haven't talked in a while, but I'm really grateful to you two for supporting my work this summer. It was a great time and I hope you are doing well! @otomiya-tickles @ssnicker-doodless @vqler @thecomfortable even if it's still a little embarrassing for me to tag you, I want to say that I admire your creativity and you are like those cool older comrades that you look at and think "I want to be like this when I grow up", thanks for that!

[ot3]

given that you clearly hold phineas and ferb in such high regard, i'm curious as to your thoughts on milo murphy's law, if you have any??

i have actually not watched a huge amount of it! i watched a few of the episodes of the first season while they were airing and remember thinking they were fun, but fell off watching it pretty quickly for no specific reason. i haven't really seen any since then and that was already [checks wikipedia] oh god. over five years ago. what the fuck. anyway i've always planned to go back and watch the show at some point but just never felt too actively compelled to do so. ill get around to it eventually but in the meantime can't really make any sort of informed comments.

[shima-draws]

Feel free to ignore this ask if u want but you seem to have TASTE when it comes to media and youve dabbled in a lot of fandoms so... any recs that have good ot3 (or more) potential?? This is so general but I am just SO desperate for polyam ships bc theres zero healthy rep for it anywhere hh. I have to settle for subtext and whatnot but even that is super hard to come by RIP. Also did ATS have a throuple in it? I feel like I remember it did but I forgot their names :"). Ty!

Omg yes okay ABSOLUTELY I live for OT3s

If you want one that’s practically canon PLEASE read Alice in the Country of Hearts: Love Labyrinth of Thorns it makes me so emo here’s a post with me ranting about all of the wonderful Alice/Ace/Julius moments

Now if you want more general recs--these obviously aren’t canon but they have a lot of good moments together and are my personal favorite OT3s, Greed/Ling/Edward from Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (GOD TIER and very highly underrated), Shirayuki/Obi/Zen from Snow White with the Red Hair is SO good and have a lot of fantastic canon moments, Luka/Adrien/Marinette from Miraculous Ladybug they make me soft, Patema/Porta/Age from Patema Inverted is SUPER cute, Milo/Melissa/Zack from Milo Murphy’s Law is ADORABLE, Ethan/Benny/Sarah from My Babysitter’s A Vampire actually tracks, and Izuku/Todoroki/Iida from My Hero Academia is. Flawless.

Out of all of these I’d definitely say Shirayuki/Obi/Zen has the most amount of shipping content, because there’s a lot of good scenes with the three of them together and then the three of them paired off individually so!

Also if you want OT3s I’ve personally indulged in, there’s a lot of yummy content on my blog of Pip/Chimchar/Grovyle from PMD, which I’ve dubbed Timegearshipping! There’s also Gladion/Ash/Clemont, which is Sunnylemonshipping.

And yes, ATS does indeed have a throuple! It’s Taku, Liliah and Finn! I’ve been debating on making Merlin/Niro/Esca a thing as well because I just. Really enjoy the thought of the three of them together damkdmaldsa

we were fools to think that nothing could go wrong (chapter 3)

Milo woke up from a restless sleep with a jolt, the sound of screaming still ringing faintly in his ears. His heart raced and he was breathing unevenly, each inhale and exhale shallow and shaky. He couldn't bring himself to be more than barely cognizant of the large boulder that had smashed through his bedroom wall at some point in the night, leaving a sizable hole that let the chilly morning air in.

He closed his eyes again, trying to steady his breaths, before he sat up and forced himself to get out of bed.

"C'mon, Murphy, you gotta get going," he murmured groggily, fighting back a yawn.

Once he had climbed down the ladder to the floor (thankfully without incident), he turned his attention to the boulder and let out a small, tired sigh.

It was a bit of a distraction, at least.

"Hey Mom?" he called as he walked to grab clothes from his closet, skirting the near-car-sized rock now sat in the middle of his room.

"Yes?" came her voice faintly from downstairs.

He pulled out a button-up, slightly beat-up body armour, and shorts and began to change into them. "Boulder came through the wall last night!"

"I'll call insurance!" she replied. "Also, breakfast is on the table whenever you're ready!"

"I'll be down in a sec!" He pulled on a sweater vest and grabbed his backpack, which he had packed the night before. "Alright, first day back to school," he said to himself. "Let's make it incredible!"

***

He tried to ignore how his voice shook a little on the last syllable.

"Milo!" came a chorus of voices as he walked up to the bus stop, hands tightly gripping the straps of his backpack.

He grinned as he saw who it was. "Hey Melissa, hey Za— oof!" He was cut off as Melissa rushed to embrace him, lifting him off the ground.

She put him back down. "Thank god you're back! It was getting so boring around here without you."

"Yeah, I think I woulda died if I had to sit through one more history class without anything catching on fire." Zack added. "You feelin' better? You had it pretty rough there for a while."

Milo rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah, I'm just a little tired. And my leg's still in a splint, of course, but at least I can walk without crutches now!"

"Oh yeah right, your leg! Didn't it break that when we got knocked out during the fight?" Melissa asked. She and Zack had been for a visit with Milo once while he was still in hospital care, but it had been cut short when a nurse had come in for a routine checkup and kicked them out. They hadn't exactly had time to discuss much beyond how Milo was out of his coma and how they all were glad that everyone was at least somewhat okay. Along with that, the fact that she was half-out when the whole leg-crushing event had transpired made Milo wonder if she had forgotten his leg had been broken entirely.

He assumed he was right, seeing her expression turn mildly embarrassed, as if she'd heard what she'd said and only then realized how it sounded.

He smiled softly at her. "Yeah. I was lucky that I only had my leg hit by that falling wall, unlike you two. That must've hurt."

"Yeah..." she replied, touching the back of her head and grimacing. "Good thing, too, because if you'd been out too we would have been screwed."

"Oh yeah, we heard about what you did, by the way, pulling us to safety after we got knocked out. Thanks for that, man. You... you definitely saved our lives there," Zack said. "And you did it with a broken leg."

"Eh, no biggie," replied Milo, laughing nervously, trying to push the resurfacing memories of the event as far out of his mind as possible. "All that matters is that you guys are fine."

"Dude, you saved us from some big-ass scary mechs while you had a broken leg! Don't sell yourself short," exclaimed Melissa. “If it weren’t for you, we would have been in some deep shit.”

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them. “If it weren’t for Milo, you wouldn’t have needed to be saved in the first place, you know.”

Melissa whirled around, glaring. “Shut your piehole, Bradley.”

Bradley leaned up against the bus stop signpost and shrugged. “I’m just saying, Milo's the whole reason stuff like that happens. Giant killer robots—"

"Mechs." Melissa corrected.

"—mechs, whatever, they don't just show up ready to go on a murderous rampage around normal people!" Bradley crossed his arms. "Half of downtown was destroyed, Melissa, and they're still cleaning up the robot—"

"Mech."

"Shut up. They're still cleaning up the robot carcasses and trying to find the bodies of people who died in the building collapses!"

Uncomfortably vivid flashes of memories from the battle were now rushing back to Milo, and he gulped. "Hey guys..." he said quietly, but he was cut off as Melissa took a step towards Bradley.

"So? None of that is Milo's fault!"

"Everything that could have gone wrong did, Melissa! Our city was invaded by robots from the future who, if I'm remembering their speech from the news correctly, were, oh right, looking for Milo!"

Melissa was beginning to look like she was going to scream. "Oh no, you do not get to blame Milo for this."

"Why not?"

"Because he's not responsible for anything that happened that day! In fact, he probably was the reason more people didn't get hurt! He's certainly the reason Zack and I aren't dead!"

"Guys?" said Milo again. "Could you stop?"

"Without him around there wouldn't have been people endangered in the first place! Him being there caused it!"

"Bradley, I will say this one last time: none of this is Milo's fault! He didn't hurt anyone!"

At that, Milo's face paled. He remembered Cavendish and Dakota's account of the post-battle destruction, remembered the mech he saw destroyed right in front of his own eyes, right after he'd hit it with a bolt of energy he still hadn't figured out how he'd created.

Oh, he definitely hurt some people. Maybe not the people Melissa was referring to, but still...

He wondered if he'd ever stop feeling nauseous whenever he re-remembered that fact.

Probably not.

"Well—"

"Will you two stop!?" Zack exclaimed suddenly. "Some of us don't want to hear it."

The two of them quieted and turned to face him.

He sighed. "Thank you." He then turned to Milo and placed a gentle hand on his arm. "You alright?"

Milo realized he was shaking a little. "Oh, yeah, I— I'm fine."

"Cool. Just take some deep breaths, okay?"

Milo nodded and did as he was told, slowly breathing in and out until he began to feel a little less shaky.

They all stood there in silence for a moment, Melissa still fuming, Zack maintaining a comforting hold on Milo's arm, Bradley repeatedly curling and uncurling his plant hand and sulking, until Chad eventually walked up to join them at the bus stop.

"Hey guys, what's going on?" he asked, breaking the silence.

Melissa sighed as the bus pulled up in front of them. "Shut up, Chad."

"What'd I say?"

***

The morning had been relatively uneventful, which Milo was grateful for, with only one thing in science class exploding when it wasn't supposed to. Sure, the blast knocked the mouse cage off the shelf and let the rodents free, but that was nothing that couldn't be easily dealt with. He could tell Melissa and Bradley were still mad at each other, as they had been intensely refusing to so much as make eye contact all class. He was also pretty sure he'd seen Melissa try to slam the safety goggle box closed on Bradley's hand.

As much as he appreciated her standing up for him, he felt a little bad, seeing as he was partially the reason the two of them were angry at each other. Plus, she'd been fuming all morning. That was never fun for anybody. Her fuming sessions were sparse but legendary, and he knew it would be a while before she'd even begin to consider making up with Bradley.

Cliche or not, he really just wished they could all get along.

He also knew from experience that having that safety goggle box slam closed on your hand really hurt. Even Bradley didn't deserve that.

Eventually, lunchtime rolled around, and he, Zack, and Melissa sat down at their regular table to eat. Milo rummaged around in his backpack for a second before pulling out his lunch bag, which was looking a little squished.

"Maybe next time I should pack the anchor nearer to the bottom," he mused to himself as he took his sandwich out of the bag. "Oh well, squished PB&J is just as good as regular PB&J."

"I'd even argue it's better," Zack commented, pulling out his own lunch. "It gives the sandwich character." He emphasized the last word with a quick, vaguely Italian gesture of his hand and a chef's kiss.

Milo laughed, and Melissa cracked a small smile before returning to her fuming.

They sat there, eating in silence for a few minutes after that, before Milo sighed and spoke up.

"Melissa, you don't have to keep being mad at Bradley. Sure, he said some not-so-nice things, but you know I'm used to that by now. Some people just don't get it, and that's okay."

She put down her sandwich and leaned her face against her hand. "I know, it's just—" she made a spluttering noise and waved her free hand around. "He's such a dick! None of that stuff was your fault! It's like he thinks that you control it or something, and then choose to let stuff go wrong! Which is so not true!"

"I know, Melissa."

"It's just— arrrrrgggh!" She pressed her face into her hands and muttered something that Milo couldn't hear but made Zack's eyes widen.

"I'm gonna pretend like I didn't hear you say that," he said, blinking incredulously. "Because holy crap."

"What'd she say?" asked Milo.

Zack shook his head. "I refuse to repeat any of those words." He then leaned as farback in his chair as he could, eyes darting around the room, obviously grasping to find something else they could talk about. "Sooo, uh, hmm... oh!” He leaned forward again. “Imagine if Milo really was able to control Murphy's Law, though! Wouldn't that be wild? It would be like a weird superpower!"

Milo felt like he was going to die, right then and there, but he forced a pained smile. "Yeah, imagine that..." He giggled nervously. "It would be pretty wild."

Melissa perked up. "Yeah, what if you could, like, shoot it all like—" She punched the air in front of her a few times, like she was blasting something. "—pew pew pew! And whatever it hit would get Murphy's Law'd, like with the mech suit you guys used on the pistachions but, like, smaller. And you wouldn't need the Flynn-Fletcher brothers for it." She grinned conspiratorially. "Maybe you could use it to give Bradley a little taste of his own bullshit theory!"

He didn't respond, unable to focus on the words, because for the second time that day, images of the battle with the mechs had begun to flood Milo's head, as hard as he tried to ignore them, only this time he couldn't help but imagine the consequences of hitting Bradley with a bolt of that energy too. Would he be crushed by a collapsing building? Flattened by a falling telephone pole? Would he spontaneously burst into flames?

Would he be hurt, just like every other person he'd hit that day?

"Ex-excuse me," he said, standing up abruptly and beginning to walk away from the table.

"Where're you going?" Zack called after him.

"Washroom," he lied, voice weak, as he hurried away.

By the time he reached his favourite obscured alcove under the back staircase, he could no longer keep the memories of the battle at bay. He leaned back against the wall for support, breaths quickening as the events played out in wicked clarity in his mind. He could see every blast at him and his friends, feel the panic as they were knocked unconscious and the helplessness that followed when he had to stop running and hide. And the last few moments of the battle? He got to see those play out with the knowledge of exactly what he was causing to happen in that moment.

Eventually the memories began to recede, but his heart rate only quickened as he realized he could still feel his hands buzzing uncomfortably. He slowly brought them up, heart dropping as he confirmed what he had feared: they were surrounded by that red glow, small sparks jumping off of them.

He began to feel panicky again. He hated being panicky, too. It made being able to swiftly respond to danger a lot more difficult. Ironically, that made him begin to panic even more. His heart clenched.

Then, without warning, he felt something akin to a static shock travel through him, and a burst of red sparks flew from his hands, a few of them striking things nearby while most of them hit the underside of the stairs above him. He watched one of them hit a light in the stairwell, and the cables attaching it to the ceiling broke with a loud snap, causing the fixture to immediately fall to the ground, knocking over a garbage can nearby and spilling its contents everywhere. Milo cringed, but his attention was quickly stolen by a loud cracking noise from above him. He looked up to see a large crack spreading through the underside of the staircase.

"Uh oh," he breathed, before diving out from under the stairs just as they began to give way. With a school-shaking rumble, the whole flight crumbled and fell to the ground below.

Milo pushed himself to his knees, staring at the rubble in front of him.

There was no denying it anymore. What he had done that day hadn't been a fluke, or a fear-induced hallucination.

That red energy stuff, that focused destruction? It came from him. And now, somehow, he'd unintentionally done it for a second time.

Watching the dust settle in front of him, with his still-tingling hands stuffed into his pockets and the memories of the battle still lingering in his mind, he became acutely aware of how much the idea that he might accidentally keep doing it again terrified him.

[claramurphyqueenoffandoms]

Well, I had a weird dream last night. At least, I think it was all a dream. Parts of it might have been me imagining it while I was half-asleep, I don’t know.

So, it starts out, Milo is in a coma. He was on an adventure with Cavendish and Dakota, but Murphy’s Law happened. Some alien generator or a portal exploded or something, and he got hurt, like way worse than usual. Now he won’t wake up. The doctors called Milo’s family, and Cavendish and Dakota are there waiting for them. They feel just awful because they let him get hurt (though it wasn’t actually their fault) and Cavendish takes out this pocketwatch. I think he was gonna give it to Milo as a birthday present, but now he can’t. But he gives it to Dakota, who loops it around and puts it on Milo like a necklace. I could see them saying something like ‘please, kid, come back.’

 But this whole time Milo’s asleep or in a coma, he’s aware of what’s going on except he can’t hear them. I couldn’t hear them either (but the dreamers get special privileges like knowing what’s being said without hearing it, I guess). All he can hear are these weird ethereal singing voices that keep glitching in and out. Suddenly, the whole world kind of glitches, and he wakes up, and he and his hospital bed are in this weird room with these four other people.

 …Okay, this might be a good time to tell you, this dream was basically VoicePlay’s “Queen in 5 Minutes,” but with all Disney XD characters. (I think it was because I’d been watching the video on loop basically all afternoon, including right before I went to bed. Because that video is seriously awesome.)

 So these four other DXD characters are the gods of Death in this multiverse.

-         Varian was Layne/Guardian, and he was wearing this grey furry vest and carrying a sword. But as soon as I saw him, I thought, he’s got Cass’s sword and Quirin’s vest. So that was super cool.

-         Stan Pines was Eli/Yama Nirvana, and his 8-ball cane was gold.

-         Scrooge McDuck was Geoff/Baron, and he was wearing his normal clothes, except the collar was red and the rest was black.

-         Wander was J. None/Anubis. He was wearing this jacket with the star from his hat all over it.

Also, they all had the face paint on them. It was probably not very much like the video, it was kind of vague, but they did all have some kind of face paint designs.

 Okay, so they’re the gods of death in the DXD multiverse. All of them died at one point or another (and most of their shows died too), so they were given the choice to either pass on or become gods of death. Scrooge was a little different, because his show wasn’t dead, but I think what it was was kind of like the Doctor, but also kind of like that Greek myth about Persophone, where every time something happens that kills him, he goes and has to do a shift as a god of death, then comes back. I just kinda knew that was the case, though, I don’t think they said it. I kinda want to figure out how on earth he got into a situation like that. (Now that I think about it, though, that’d probably be why there are so many hiatuses.) But the whole point is, when Milo went into his coma, they saw he was gonna die, and so they shifted reality to bring him into this special inbetween room. If he gives in here, he gets to be a god of death with them (basically forever).

So they all got introduced to Milo, by their names appearing beside their heads like in the video. Which Milo could apparently read. And after they’re all introduced, Wander just dances over to Milo and yanks his heart out, singing cheerfully. Man, he don’t care. He takes the scales out of his hat to weigh it. Once he’s done, he puts it all back in his hat, and throws that off to the side. Then Milo falls out of his bed, and in this he knows they’re all from cartoons and stuff, and he’s like, I think my writers are forgetting about me, so that’s why I’ve been so weak ever since I got back (from Octalia I guess?) So he’s actually getting scared, because he doesn’t have his backpack, he’s not being backed by his writers, and he’s not strong enough to fight back on his own, and he’s all alone. His friends won’t find him here.

 And he was imagining them wandering through this weird mystical dimension hospital—Zack, Melissa, Cavendish, and Dakota—sneaking around, trying to find him without getting caught. They kept avoiding the other people in the hospital. I’m not sure what qualified as a patient and what qualified as a doctor or nurse or something, but they had to avoid them both. They kept almost running into Bill Cipher as a human, which was something they had to avoid or something very bad would happen to them. They met Baby Cavenpus, I think. And Richard Maxwell. Which didn’t quite make sense, because he’s not from a DXD show? But whatever. They also kept seeing these five shadowy figures down at the end of hallways, and I kept thinking they were like the ghosts of VoicePlay or something. But the MML group met some of the patients in the hospital, which were… let me think, I seem to remember Ford, and Quirin, and… dang it, what was the purple horse’s name? … yeah, I don’t remember. Maybe it’ll come to me later. But anyway, they were all patients, and trying to escape, and find their friends/family (I guess not knowing they were now gods of death). So they teamed up with the MML gang to find their friends. But they passed right by where Milo’s room was, because it didn’t have a door, or maybe it was invisible.

 Then it went back to Milo. He thought they were actually passing by his room, or thought he saw them, and he yelled for them, but they didn’t hear him. And he wonders why they couldn’t find him. Then Scrooge puts his cane under Milo’s chin like in the video and says this isn’t a plane of reality people can just find. Milo is actually scared now, too scared to move. Where did I go wrong, he wonders? Scrooge lifts his cane and makes him stand, and he tells him he’s done nothing wrong, it’s not about that. No, it’s not exactly fair, but neither is life. And he takes his cane back and starts singing the part from the song. The other three are just glaring at him the whole time, partly because he’s the only one who’s still technically alive. But he slams his cane into the floor and makes Milo fall back onto the bed, and he sings the part about bad mistakes, and “I-I-I-I’ve made a fe-e-ew.” He didn’t even sound like Geoff, he literally sounded like Scrooge McDuck singing. The others are rolling their eyes, like, yeah, a few. But he’s ignoring them, and says he’s had to deal with all that, but he came through in the end. And the others are singing the background parts about “He could go on and on and on…”

 He does this evil laugh (well, maybe not evil, but you know what I mean) and he looked like he was about to continue, but then Stan and Wander and Varian start singing “We Are the Champions” all together, and Scrooge just gives them a death glare like, you wicked warblers, ye stole mah part. But they’re totally ignoring him, except for Stan, who’s just flaunting it. And Milo’s here in the middle of it, watching this whole rivalry thing play out. Wander and Varian are ignoring all that, though, just singing at the top of their lungs, and Wander dancing around, and being so friendly to Varian and getting him to have fun and dance around with him, and they seriously looked like they were having a super fun time, those two. #cinnamonrolls  I think they’re trying to get Milo to dance and sing too, and he almost looked like he wanted to, but he held back. But while Wander and Varian are completely ignoring the rivalry of the other two, Stan sings right in Scrooge’s face, and Scrooge does the thing in Stan’s eye like “No time for losers,” and Stan starts to get mad.

 So then he starts yelling at Scrooge, and everyone else shuts up to watch. I’m not entirely sure how this whole part went, but it was a lot about the rivalry. I think it might have played twice in the dream. The first time he was getting mad specifically at Scrooge, because they were partners(-in-crime) and worked together to make money, but Scrooge went on and did his own thing, got rich and successful and all. Oh, wow, just like his brother. But yeah, he was mad about it, and he’s like, yeah, you happy about that? Then… you know, I think it did play twice. The second time, he was just talking about his life in general. And Stan’s like, you think you had it tough, Mister Zillionaire? Look at all the crap I had to put up with, and all the stuff I had to pull to fix that stupid portal, and save my stupid brother, and I still died trying to stop a stupid triangle, and you’re talking about troubles? I had to stand ALL the heat, how long can you do it? How long before you have to face the bullets and die like the rest of us? And guess what, you might still have some kind of life, that might be your little solo here, but death is OUR beat. This time, it’s our call. We get to decide what happens now. It was actually kind of a cool speech.

 And I think it kind of gets the others on his side about this, and they join in the argument. They all want to decide what happens to Milo now, so they’re going back and forth about it. I think Stan wants to decide for himself, Wander wants to take him somewhere else, Varian wants them to stick to the rules, and nobody is sure what Scrooge wants. Then they all just jump in at the same time to grab Milo, to pull him to whatever fate they decide, or to keep the others from taking him, because they all have different ideas of what his fate should be. And it’s like in the video, where they’re all surrounding him, and Stan’s cane and Varian’s (well, Cass’s) sword crossed over his chest.

 Of course, Milo is freaking out over this whole process. I mean, how would you like four gods of Death fighting over you with their weapons at your throat? He shuts his eyes tight and just screams PLEASE STOP, I CAN’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!! The others stop pulling at him, but just stay right where they are. I can’t handle this, he says, it’s just too much pressure. All of you trying to drag me away to my death. But then he starts singing “Pressure” from his show, instead of the song from this part in the video. Musical accompaniment from nowhere, of course, for literally the only time in the dream. And… wait, were there words? I think there were. I think he sang his own lyrics to it, but I have no idea what they were. Dang it, why can’t I ever remember the songs in my dreams??

 But the others are like, well fine, fair point, but we’re the gods of death here, whaddya WANT US to do? And he just replies by singing the part from the song “I want to break FREE-E-E-E!” and throws his hand in the air. And for some reason that knocks all of them back, and they’re all really confused. But Milo just looks at them and he’s like, you really don’t care what happens to me, you just care about yourself and this crazy rivalry. You don’t need me, and I don’t need any of this. Well if your so smart, what do you think you need, they ask? And he says, I don’t know what I need. All I know is I want to break free from all this. They shake their heads as they step closer. ‘Fraid you can’t do that. It’s not your choice. And the lights go dim, because time’s almost up. Milo realizes now: he’s about to die.

 I think here it went back to the MML gang and the patients. Because apparently they aren’t just in Milo’s imagination anymore, and they’re just randomly really there. The whole thing could’ve been Milo’s dream, but I kinda don’t think so. But they saw the lights in the hospital go dim, and somehow knew that meant Milo was going to die. Maybe the patients knew, like Ford or something. So they rushed to find him quick. But then they went around a corner and ran right into the human Bill Cipher. He looked a little like the tall red guy in Hazbin Hotel, except yellow and black, and, you know, BILL. (I haven’t watched the show, but I’ve seen a few clips in music videos) So they all ran away, and he kept chasing them through the halls of the hospital. Here it kinda turned into nightmare, because it seemed like we just couldn’t get away. (oh and in this part of the dream, I was seeing it through Cavendish’s eyes, not just watching it happen). At one point, I think the patients turned around to fight him, but he made the blue chains appear around their necks and pulled them back to him. Then he started chasing us again. When he was chasing us, they weren’t there, though. We couldn’t get away. It was like almost every time we turned a corner to get away from him, he was there where we were about to go, ready to spring. We kept running, but he finally cornered us. The patients were there again, floating chained in the air behind him and struggling to get free. I think it was only Ford and Quirin this time though? Not… SYLVIA! That was her name! Sylvia. But she wasn’t there at the time for whatever reason. But we were cornered, and I was just so upset (well, Cavendish was). Cavendish said he let Milo get hurt and he’s about to die, and now he’s led two more kids and his best friend right into Death’s hands. He says he’s sorry to them, and whispers it to Milo, like “I’m sorry, Milo.”

 Well, I don’t know if you’d say Milo felt that or what, but I think he did. In his last few moments, Milo looks down and finds the pocketwatch Cavendish and Dakota gave him, and he touches it and thinks about them. They’re like these crazy sci-fi uncles to him, but they’re really his friends. And then he remembers his family, and Zack and Melissa and his other friends, and he just really hopes they think of him after all this, because he misses them a lot. The moment he gives in, he’ll be losing all of them.

 I feel like there was a part of the dream that I remembered here that didn’t actually happen before, where Bill said that Cavendish and Dakota were supposed to die, and he’d let the other two go if they agreed to stay, because he’d been cheated out of getting Cavendish way too many times, so he wanted them both now. He couldn’t let Milo go, because he was in with the gods of Death, nobody can get him out of there. And I think Cavendish and Dakota just looked at each other and nodded, and Dakota told the other two to say bye to Milo for them, and Cavendish stepped up to shake Bill’s hand. Of course the thing about it is that I just kind of remembered this as happening, in the middle of the scene with Milo, but I hadn’t seen it happen. Dreams are weird.

 But I remembered that happening, and I thought, well, Milo is still losing them all. He’s losing C&D to death and losing all the others to life. He can never see any of them again until the moment they die. And this time, the others around him are just quiet. They all had to leave people behind when this happened, too, and they know this is the case for all of them. Most of them are also remembering the people they lost in life too (Scrooge lost Della, Stan lost Ford, Varian lost Quirin). So they know how this poor kid feels. But they’re like, they say it should be easy, but even though it isn’t, these are the rules. This is how you gotta play the game, and now it’s your turn. Just give in.

 And it was at that moment that I suddenly thought, wait, did you seriously just invite Milo freaking Murphy to play a freaking game?

 Well, I think Milo must have had the same thought, because he stands up on his bed and rips out all the cords and IVs hooked up to him. Then the lights suddenly undim and he looks around at them and he says, you know what, you can knock me right down with whatever you’ve got, but I’m always getting back up again! Then he points right at the camera (or whatever it is in a dream—I remember thinking he was talking to Dan and Swampy) and he sings, you think you can love me and leave me to die? Well, sorry, but you can’t! I’m getting out of here, and I’m getting back to my family and friends, because I’ve got something no game and none of you can beat!

 So then, Varian draws Cass’s sword, and he’s like, careful, I like you, but if you try anything crazy, I’m gonna have to use this. But then Milo looks down at his hand, and it starts supercharging with this red energy: Murphy’s Law. He then shoots it right at Varian, who vanishes in a puff of smoke. And here I was aware of two scenes going on at the same time, this one and the one with the others. When Milo shot Murphy’s Law at Varian and made him disappear, Quirin’s chain snapped. When Milo turns and does the same to Stan and Wander, the chains for Ford and Sylvia (who’s back now I guess) snap too. Bill is freaking out because he doesn’t understand what’s happening (and neither do the MML gang). But I think they can hear the song going on, and they know Milo’s doing something. And Milo does the exact line from the song, “I’ll face it with a grin, I’m never giving in, oh no,” while Scrooge is giving him this smile that says, go on lad, you’ve earnt it. He shoots Scrooge with Murphy’s Law, and he vanishes too. Bill gets knocked back on the ground when that happens, and the wall nearby turns into a door. So the MML gang run toward it, because it’s Milo’s door. Then Milo turns right toward the camera and sings “SHOW MUST GO ON!” before turning around and walking up to the curtains behind his bed. Behind him, the others come through the door. He opens the curtains…

 And wakes up in his bed. Cavendish and Dakota sit up straight in their chairs and gasp. They look at each other like, wait we’re still here? Was that real? But then Milo groans, and they see he’s there and he’s alive. And they both come over and hug him. Milo just says, thanks guys. Then Zack and Melissa rush in, and when they see Milo, they give each other the same kind of looks C&D just did. Then they run over and hug Milo too. It’s a very happy tearful reunion, and then it fades out into white, just like the video.

 And I mean, that’s not exactly the end of the dream, because then there was this kind of dream epilogue or something, where the four guys are just watching the happy ending from the white place that the ending faded into. They’re actually looking pretty pleased. I think they cheer when Milo’s family comes in a minute later. They start talking about how it was better he didn’t become one of them just yet, he’s still got his life to live. Stan looks over at Scrooge and is like, I bet you just set the whole thing up to prove it, huh? Prove the kid? And Scrooge replies, believe me, I wasn’t about to rouse your rivalry without a very good reason.

 But what about that dreamtime death demon, he asks? And Stan’s like, don’t you worry, I think there’s some people that’ll be more than ready to give him his. Cue Bill getting up surrounded by Ford, Quirin, and Sylvia. He laughs and says, you really think you’re gonna be able to stand up to me, with the power I have over you? Ford says not really, but they probably will, and thumbs behind him. And the ghosts of VoicePlay come up and they look mad, because Bill messed with their reality and put it together with all these others and made it all crazy like this, so they go beat him up.

 Stan and Scrooge laugh. But now they don’t have anything to do, because Milo was the last thing on their list. So Wander is just like, let’s have a dance party, and Varian’s like, yeah man, let’s do it, and highfives him. Or however many fingers they have. And they just start dancing, to… I don’t know what the song was. It might’ve just been made up. Or maybe it was part of the actual song? I don’t know. And I think there might’ve been more, like another dream, but I don’t really remember it. I think it was another one with VoicePlay.

 So yeah, that’s about it. I just spent the last three hours typing that up, as soon as I got up, so hopefully it’s good? It’s just so bizarre, but also kind of cool? And I haven’t had cool dreams like this in a while, so it was definitely welcome. I guess it’s kind of an indicator of what’s going on in my brain these days.

 (now I kinda wanna fic it)

Tickling the Ivories: Chapter 2

Dakota and Cavendish share a brain cell but Milo has full custody.

Thank all of you for the support the last few days. Part one: Here

Sunday was laundry day. The Laundromat they liked to use was moderately clean, plus it had a vending machine that was always well-stocked. Several people were milling around not speaking a word to each other. Each wrapped up in their own story.

Leaning against one of the tables Dakota glanced back and forth between the muted television hanging from the ceiling to their sloshing clothes. It was kind of trippy seeing the bright red and orange swirl together with the muted hunter’s green. When he got bored of that he would read the awful subtitles to the soap opera playing. Cavendish had the foresight to bring a book.

Long legs stretched out in front of him he was reading the book with both hands. Reading the cover Dakota noticed something about the title.

“Why’d you get a book with a misspelled title?” He asked before popping another corn chip in his mouth.

“What?” Cavendish asked in his usual Im-so-done-with-this tone. Dakota gestured to the cover with the hand holding the bag.

“They spelled ‘worm’ wrong.”

Cavendish glanced at the cover before sighing loudly.

“It’s an old English word term, that usually refers to huge limbless and wingless serpents. Over the years the meaning has been changed to refer to dragons apparently. From what I’ve gathered the author seemed to think the wordplay was worth being inaccurate with the title.” Cavendish explained barely looking up from the text.

Dakota’s possible next comment was interrupted by a bale of hay with the Murphy Trio hurling through the large glass window. Zack tumbled kicking the book right out of Cavendish’s hands right into an open dryer. The momentum forced the door to shut and caused the internal mechanism to start the unit on the hottest setting. In seconds the book began to smoke and the machine stopped.

“Sorry Cavendish,” Zack said retrieving the text. He pulled out the book only for it dissolve into a pile of ash on the floor. “Again, sorry.”

“Great now I’ll never know if Griff gets turned back to normal.” The tall man complained throwing his hands up.

“Oh? Are you talking about that Nicholas Flamel book? Its actually very interesting-“Melissa was cut off by being shushed by a fussy older man.

“No spoilers.”

“MY GOODNESS IS THAT THE TIME?” Milo exclaimed noticing the clock before it fell off the wall.

“Got to get this to Amanda before the competition.” He pulled out a pink polka-dotted present before slipping it back into his backpack.

“So planning on doing anything with your girlfriend tonight?” Tease Melissa making kissy noises.

“No. I’m going to watch my parents compete…from home.” Realizing he was ending the conversation on an awkward he turned to the two-time travelers. “Bet you two have an interesting night planned. You two are always doing something interesting.”

“Nope. This is it.” Dakota moved the hay bale where he wanted it to sit down. Cavendish sat next to him pulling out his phone.

“Besides. Why would we do anything for Valentine’s day?” Cavendish asked rhetorically still not looking up from his phone. Zack and Melissa looked at each other to mouth ‘I thought they were’ ‘Yeah me too’ to one another. Milo gave the two a hard stare, out of the corner of his eye Dakota saw a look that pierced his soul.

He knew the truth Dakota refused to acknowledge and he wasn’t pleased.

The God of mercy remembers Dakota existed and granted him a small blessing in the form of Milo’s phone ringing. Expression changing from scolding to joy Milo answered his phone.

“Hey, mom. Right. Oh, that does sound serious. Right. Yeah, we’ll find you a replacement. I love you too. Bye.” Milo still had grin as he announced his dad was on his way to the hospital and they now needed a replacement for the ‘last couple standing’ competition.

“Don’t look at me. My parents are out of town.” Zack waved his hands.

“Same.” Melissa nodded.

“Mm. If only we knew of someone else.” Milo gripped his chin thinking.

“Eh?” Melissa asked motioning to the two men now. Zack shrugged.

“Say, Dakota.” Milo took a step towards them. He fished out a flyer to hand to them.

“Not happening kid. I don’t know what it is but we want no part of it.” The teens look taken aback a little. Cool, laid back Dakota was being curt. Cavendish looked up from his phone to see what was written on the flyer.

“We’ll do it,” Cavendish announced taking the flyer from a stunned Milo. Ignoring the four puzzled looks the Brit folded the paper like a letter before tucking it into his coat.

“Alright see you at 6!” Milo smiled before leading his friends out of the Laundromat.

“Since when do you go for things like that?” Dakota exclaimed half crushing the rest of his chips.

“Not like we have anything better to do.” Cavendish had pulled out his phone again. “Might as well enjoy ourselves.” Dakota could feel his eye twitching under his shades. Unwarranted fury began to boil up inside him. All this time he’d been walking on egg shells and just…gah! Too many mixed signals man!

“I’m gunna lay down,” Dakota announced making his way to the van.

“Have a good lie down then. I can finish here.” Cavendish called out to his friend’s retreating back.

%%

Stretched over the entrance to the High School football field was a banner announcing, “The last Couple Standing”. Seeing the font they used Dakota felt a bubble of unease in his stomach. That font didn’t look too friendly. A small protest exited his mouth only to be drowned out by Cavendish hollering at him to hurry up.

“Let’s get this over with,” Dakota complained unbuckling himself to follow after.

%%

“Well, that went as well as expected,” Cavendish mumbled dragging his heels back towards the van.

“I’m starting to think Murphy’s Law is contagious.” Dakota moaned nursing his arm. The two looked like they fought a flame thrower wielding grizzly bear. Licking his fingers Cavendish put out his smoldering mustache. It all started with a single firework that started a series of events Rube Goldberg would be proud of.

“Just as we were winning too.” The grey-haired man scowled leaning back into the mostly empty van.

Leaving the doors still, open Dakota sat next to his partner to tap out a few pebbles that got lodged in there by the exploding fish tank from earlier. Who brought a two-gallon fish tank to school event anyway?

“Hey. I still don’t get why this stupid contest meant so much to you.” Dakota snapped digging wood shrapnel from his curls. Still lying on his back Cavendish pulled out the folded up flyer from earlier. Dakota unfolded it to read over the entire flyer. In the bottom left-hand corner in a spikey purple blurb, it stated the grand prize was a fifty dollar gift card to Rita’s Burritos.

“You seemed rather down lately. So I thought maybe a gift card to your favorite restaurant might help make you feel better.” Cavendish threw his arm over his eyes to give them a rest.

“You did this…for me?” Dakota was not choking up. He refused. Remembering he had picked up something earlier he reached behind one of the crates still leftover from yesterday’s clean. “Hey, I got you something too.“ It wasn’t wrapped so he just set on Cavendish’s middle taking the air out him slightly. Uncovering his eyes he saw a black orange keyboard lying in his lap.

“What’s this then?” He turned it on eager to hear what it sounded like.

“Obviously we can’t get a proper piano so I thought I’d improvise.” Dakota gestured to the three-pound instrument. There was a pause between the two of them.  Heart sinking his toothy smile faded to nothing. “You hate it.”  

In response, the taller man leaned forward to give a proper hug. He gave a small nuzzle before turning his face a little to-

They both froze for a second. In a flash the two separate wearing mirroring red looks on their faces. In an attempt to break the tension Dakota suggested a song. The two of them played several versions of ‘Going to the Zoo’ before they called it a night. Both smiling wide the two of them messed around with the keyboard well into the night.

[muffintonic]

MY CROSSOVER LIVEBLOG

Yes, I decided to just watch the PnF/MML leak instead of waiting because i’d rather not have to dodge spoilers until January. (Also, i’m still going to buy the new season on iTunes when it comes out, so whatever.)

For just the analysis bits, look for actual paragraphs instead of single sentences.

Doof was seriously considering Cavendish’s offer: his nnnnnnnnnnno was drawn out, it had more of a curious/hesitant tone at the beginning, and he freaking glanced down. In the end, he’s already got a boyfriend, though.

Continuing PnF’s habit of showing Buford and Baljeet hanging out alone, I see....nice.

DID BALJEET JUST DAB

They’ve already done “Act Your Age” and confirmed that Doof stayed a high school teacher after “Doof 101,” but he seems to be an agent here, so.......”The OWCA Files” takes place...before....this???? So this special takes place.........after “Doof 101??″ PNF USED TO BE SO GOOD AT CONTINUITY; GIVE ME SOME INFO, HERE.

DOOF CONTINUING TO SEMI-UNDERSTAND PERRY IS MY LIFEBLOOD.

DUCKY MO-GO

BUFORD STOP SACRIFICING BALJEET

I always love Phineas being supportive of Ferb talking/expressing himself. :’)

YES. YES, IT HAS. THREE YEARS.

Oh, Phineas.

They already played darts across the city in “Bullseye!” and badminton in Across the Second Dimension....isn’t this kind of redundant?

It’s actually pretty lucky that Doof’s time machine has food on it...otherwise they’d have been long-dead.

PERRY AND DOOF PLAYING HOT SAUCE TOGETHER. :’’))

Cavendish insisting that Dakota be careful a ton of times: good stuff.

YEAR. MONTH. CUP-HOLDER. I LOVE YOU, DOOF.

THAT’S RIGHT, HE’S GOOD AT INVENTING THINGS!!! HE’S A LEGITIMATE SCIENTIST, AND SOMETIMES SCIENTISTS CAN BE LIKE THAT! (source: i’m a doctorate student)

How long has it been since they started openly taking over, exactly? For the kids to have been aware? Phineas and Ferb knew long enough to have a satellite workshop with a lot of inventions housed in it...

“Weaponize it?“ Buford, PLEASE.

They already studied good/bad luck in “Just Our Luck,” so this shouldn’t be too hard.

SOLDIERS?? Phineas is Ready for war. D: Poor baby.

“We...have no frame of reference for that“ THAT’S RIGHT, THEY HAVE THE WORLD ON A SILVER PLATTER. Phineas and Ferb are, like, the opposite of Murphy’s Law.

“Lemony fresh.“ God, i’ve missed Buford.

Doof is really stuck on that soda.....mood.

QUIRKY WORKY.

Candace being pragmatic, but also knowing that her brother is going to want to keep Milo around: good stuff.

DON’T BE RUDE ABOUT HER NECK. SHE WAS A MODEL IN “Runaway Runway.”

FOUR MEN AND A PLATYPUS. ....I still don’t like how MML uses cutaway gags (and physical humor, actually)--too Family Guy for my taste.

Oh, shut up, Cavendish. He’s the one who invented time travel in the first place.

HIS VOICE IS GREAT, SHUT UP!

NOW HE’S TAKING IT OUT ON DAKOTA??? SHUT. UPPPPPPPP!

So escape is shorthand for “self-destruct?”

WHY DIDN’T PERRY GO WITH HIM. PERRY, THAT’S YOUR BEST FRIEND WHO’S SAD!!!

They’re going to beat the pistachions with the soda, aren’t they.

Mr. Slushy Dawg reference??

Doof.....already built a time machine all the way back in “Lotsa Latkes,” though.... I miss PnF’s excellent continuity............ (his apartment’s interior in the beginning of this special was different, too, yet we saw in AYA that it hadn’t changed in 10 years...and what happened to Xavier Onassis, anyway?)

I’m still not completely on-board with the whole “Doof-is-Professor-Time-and-he’s-venerated-in-the-future” thing. He wanted to be big and important in PnF after spending most of his life being ignored or actively bullied, but by the end realized that he didn’t need to be the ruler of the Tri-State area or anything to be loved and have a good life....this kind of reveal feels like it’s sort of flying in the face of that.

Why do Dwampy love rap so much? I’m not a fan.

THE ISLAND OF LOST DAKOTAS??????!

THE PHINEAS AND FERB EFFECT = THE MYSTERIOUS FORCE

Remember how Candace has super bad luck? Like, Phineas even commented on it in “S’Winter” when she kept getting the brunt of obstacles. Doof seems to have this kind of bad luck, too. My theory: certain people, like the original Murphy, have concentrations of the negative ions that cause bad stuff to happen. Murphy just happened to have a lot, and they got passed down to his descendants. Doof and Candace happen to have negative ions, but just not to the level of those descended from Murphy’s line.

BUUUUUUFORD

CAVENDISH FINALLY LEARNS

THEY’RE HUGGING HIM

UGH, CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT, GUYS. Wait, wasn’t Doof into “Greevil” (green + evil) and stuff before? What happened to that??

I mean, they don’t really need the suit...Phineas and Ferb can just stand on either side of Milo.

THE POWER OF ORANGE SODA REPELS YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ISABELLA!!!!! Looks like she was getting ready for war/a rescue mission, too.

Perry saving Doof from falling...ah, yes, just like always.

CAVENDISH SAVING DAKOTA FOR ONCE

“And if you get hurt, I don’t have one either“ CAVENDISH CONFIRMED TO BE WILLING TO ISLAND HIMSELF FOR DAKOTA

Okay, I just can’t take this whole dramatic “compassion” scene seriously because the MML art style looks like Word clipart. Sorry, Dwampy. (I think they should’ve used slo-mo, too)

Perry protecting his family. :’)

DAKOTA JUST BODILY PICKED UP CAVENDISH AND RAN AWAY WITH HIM. STRONG.

IRVING!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

BUFORD!! AMANDA!!! (my favorite MML character)

RADIOACTIVE WATERMELON. Why are watermelons such a running gag for Dwampy?

BLOWTORCH AND PEANUT BUTTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

LINDA AND LAWRENCE GOT PISTACHION’D, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Come to think of it, i’m getting some “Night of the Living Pharmacists” vibes, now.

I think Dwampy left Isabella out for half the special and got her pistachion’d so quickly because they knew she’d be able to save everyone otherwise (like in NOTLP).

Nice speech, Doof!

So....this timeline is originally 15 years too early for Doof to be Professor Time. In AYA, which takes place 10 years in the future, he has white hair. When he comes back through time from the future right here, he doesn’t have white hair. WHAT THE HECK, CONTINUITY?! I’m so disappointed.

God, the way they do time travel in this series is....so confusing. Give me BTTF simplicity any day. Honestly, realistically going back and stopping the whole thing in the first place should have created an altered timeline....or this whole thing happened in an altered timeline in the first place since originally nobody was supposed to be replaced with pistachions until Derek got knocked into the timestream.

Dakota hugging Cavendish and calling him partner: GOOD STUFF.

Again, Doof’s building has to have been rebuilt some time between now and AYA.

Mmmmm, so MML takes place on the other side of town. In Jefferson County. So, now we know PnF takes place in Danville, which is in Jefferson County, in the Tri-State Area.

Okay, it’s confirmed: MML is merely an OVA for PnF. Dwampy honestly should have just either continued PnF, or let it die a good death as a wonderful period piece with fantastic continuity. Seriously, Doof was 47 in PnF and was a teen in the 80s....MML takes place after 2016, so DOOF WOULDN’T BE THAT AGE IN 2016. THERE WERE FLIP PHONES AT THE BEGINNING OF PNF. GOD. I’m beginning to consider not thinking of anything that happens in MML to be canon to PnF, especially since it seems to take place in the “The OWCA Files” continuity where they got Doof’s ocelot backstory (and bedroom) completely wrong.

Dakota slid the desk in front of the only door to the dingy little office, effectively barricading it from the inside. He didn’t think any of the… things out there had spotted them, but he would rather not take his chances. Not after he’d lost Cavendish in one of the worst ways possible. When he closed his eyes, he could still hear his partner’s screams as they were separated by the horde.

A shiver ran down his spine, and Dakota shook his head, turning his full attention to the only other person in the room. Milo Murphy, who he’d found trying to survive on his own. Neither the kid’s friends nor his family had been anywhere in sight. Dakota had almost instantly taken the kid under his wing, rushing him back to the old strip mall that had been his and Cavendish’s base of operations before the disaster had struck. Now that they were in relative safety, perhaps a plan of action could be concocted. First things first, though. He had to find out how Milo had ended up on his own.

“So, kid… What happened? Where… where are your parents? No, wait, let’s start from the top. Where were you and your friends when everything hit the fan?” Depending on where everyone had been when the chaos broke out, Dakota could try to figure out how likely it was that any of them were still alive. Unless Milo had, God forbid, seen his friends and family die, Dakota could try to find some hope in this bleak situation. Anything to fix the expression on Milo’s face.

How long had it been since Milo had rested? Before Dakota could finish barricading the door, Milo had already collapsed in one of the office chairs, exhausted. His fingers wrapped around the strap of his backpack, gripping. Relaxing his aching muscles, but not off-guard. It was only a matter of time until the blockade would give way.

An exhausted, sad smile was flashed to the adult, before dropping to its initial neutral state. A silent reassurance, of sorts.

“I was at school,” recalled the teen. It had been a week before, but he so clearly could remember the lockdown, the intruders breaking down the doors, narrowly escaping with help from his fire extinguisher. The pained sobs of those beyond hope and the fearful screeching that filled the air continued to haunt him.

"I haven't found my family yet."

It wasn't often that Milo lied, but this was one of those times. It was far easier to say 'I don't know' than 'my family systematically sacrificed themselves one-by-one to ensure my safety'. His father’s ghost of an encouraging smile and his mother’s loving tears were etched into his memory. The short silence that followed his statement suggested that he didn’t want to talk about it further, as if denying the experience would make the pain disappear.

CRASH!

Milo started. Before he’d even identified the threat, the Murphy had scrambled from his chair with one hand reaching inside his backpack. Wide eyes darted around the room, eventually settling on a mug that had tumbled off of the opposite desk and crashed against the floor, shattering. He sighed in relief as he settled back into the seat... which collapsed beneath him, dispensing him to the floor with a startled cry. Murphy’s Law was just the same as always, regardless of the apocalypse.

Milo would have asked about Cavendish, had he not changed his mind at the last second. He hadn’t seen or heard mention of him since before the incident, and while Milo truly believed he was still alive, if he was wrong, he didn’t want to find out. Besides, Dakota would have told him if something happened to Cavendish... right?
