🐉 What’s Yveltal up to over here?

Yveltal spends a good bit of the modern era resting in hibernation. Back when things were more tumultuous, they often were awoken too early and wreaked death and destruction until they either eventually calmed and went back into hibernation or Xerneas arrived to stop them.

They aren't a malicious deity, just one that was created to bring death and destruction as part of the cycle of balance. So naturally, they have a bit of a temper and dislike being awoken early. (Oh, you want destruction, do you? I'll show YOU--)

Yveltal is a necessary part of the cycle of life. Without them, mortal death would not occur and life would overflow the planet to dangerous levels. Besides overpopulation of larger creatures within a few years, you'd probably end up knee-deep in bacteria within a week. Yuck.

Hey, this is the roommate anon.

So, my dad and I are looking for someone to rent the room left by the roommate who was having repeated medical emergencies. A coworker had expressed interest. Previously, she had said she only needed one room, but now she needs two rooms. We have a side room that we had rented out a few years ago, but the guy straight up disappeared on us. So my dad said we could give them the side room. My stipulation is that I’m not sharing my bathroom, cause the guy who disappeared had shared my bathroom, and after a gallbladder surgery, that became an issue. Also, it’s messy, and I’m not willing to clean it to anyone else’s standards. Which means slow going.

The coworker and her nephew showed up today unannounced, towards the end of me eating lunch. I’ve been cleaner than I used to be, but there’s still some of my stuff that need to be neatened up, in addition to a bunch of my dad’s stuff stored in the living room, and a bunch of stuff from both ex roommates in the side room. And add in the fact that I hadn’t cleaned up from lunch yet, it wasn’t perfectly cleaned through out the house. Not terrible, but not great.

My coworker and her nephew asked if we wanted help to clean stuff up, for everyone’s health, because of bacteria and germs. This bothered me, because the mess wasn’t that bad, and also so much of it belongs to other people. And then she showed up without warning. Like, it just bothers me so much that she’s complaining about the kitchen right after I used it, or the rugs being dirty (yes, there’s stains from the past 16-17 years, again not entirely my fault). Like I said, I was eating lunch, and was gonna neaten up after. And I don’t mind my dad having a bunch of his stuff here, it’s his house, but I’m not gonna have it blamed on me. And it just bothers me so much that she said that bit about germs and bacteria when she showed up unannounced, especially cause I don’t think it’s as bad as all that.

I think a large part of the reason it upsets me so much is cause my ex step mom basically used me being messy (because of depression) as an excuse to invade my privacy for years, and then I had a bunch of people give me a bunch of different advice over the years, none of which worked, it only gave me problems with hoarding. So far, the only two things that have helped are: 1. Cleaned on a timer, and 2. It doesn’t have to be perfect. That, and that I don’t have to be responsible for other people’s messes. And I don’t know if it’s a culture thing, or if she has some mental thing where she can’t have any mess whatsoever, or what, but I told my dad that I don’t really want to live with someone who shows up unannounced, and criticizes something that isn’t that bad. Especially cause I had to show my dad the kitchen, and then how much of the stuff in the living room is his to get him to believe me. Cause all he did was say that maybe it was the smell. We have compost without a lid (his choice, not mine), the sink has been having problems with smell recently, and then My cat eats wet food, which I put the cans in the trash, and his only suggestion was to get another trash bin, which only makes things more complicated and goes back to part of the issue of making things more complicated just makes me more messy. He hasn’t even met her face to face yet, and I had to literally prove him wrong to get him to actually take my side.

Hey, nonnie! I'm sorry this happened. It sounds like a complicated situation, and though I know this ask is old and I'm sure the situation has resolved or at least changed by now, I hope you know that it's absolutely fair to have that boundary to not want to live with someone who shows up unannounced and criticises the way the house looks.

I mean, I've lived in rented places for the past 7 years of my life, and I get that when you move into a new place that has been lived in by others, you want to clean everything a bit just to feel comfortable inside it. Maybe this is a me thing, but I always clean and disinfect the surfaces and cabinets before I start to fill the place with my things. Otherwise I get really uncomfortable and constantly feel like I need to wash my hands and like I don't want to touch anything. Not necessarily because I think it's full of germs or bacteria—I just like having control and knowledge of what's been in contact with the things I touch in my living space 😅

But it's one thing to have that need to clean up your new living space, and another thing entirely to show up whenever you want to before said space is ready for you and start making comments about the conditions the space is in. And while I do think your personal history can be a part of why this affected you more than maybe it would've affected someone else, that doesn't change the fact that they had no right to show up unannounced like that, and you have a right to set boundaries and be taken seriously.

Sending a virtual hug ❤️

something something the main cargo of the tulbar being mouthwash and its main advertising slogan being 'kills 99% of germs without leaving a bad taste'

something something Jimmy desperate to remove the rest of the crew and his mistakes, so far as to try and crash the ship so he doesn't have to face what he did to Anya, killing 99% of germs and bacteria everyone and himself so he won't have to face the bad taste in his mouth consequences of it all

something something eating curly to survive, feeding curly to himself to survive, the fact that human cannabalism infects you in a way you can't heal (prion disease), something something mouthwash will rinse it out, something something have your terrible actions and the consequences they bring without feeling guilty if you just wash it down with delusions mouthwash

something along those lines

Remade my Mario references. Again. Again. I did Luigi too but he's gonna be in a different post so I can talk about the Mario stuff.

Not shown here is the fact that during SPM, Mario got a pretty nasty scar on his chest thanks to Mr. L snapping at him and launching it at him.

The stitches on his buttons are green, to match Luigi's. Similarly, Mario has green and white striped socks (not pictured because this isn't a fullbody)

The drawstrings on his hoodie match Luigi's star earrings

He has a cut in his eyebrow, which also came from SPM. I like to think he got it during the same incident that gave Luigi his eye scar, so after one of the Brobot fights

After the events of Odyssey, Mario's hat reverted back to a small piece of fabric, since Cappy only temporarily fixed it by turning into the hat. As a thank you for everything, Cappy and the Bonnetons fixed the hat up for Mario, incorporating the single surviving piece of it, since that hat is very important to him (he was born in that hat!!!)

(reblogs with tags/comments are appreciated. Thankyu. Feel free to ask questions about him also I will answer)

I haven't seen this take a WHOLE lot, but I have seen it enough to get. Frustrated. About it.

So for anyone who doesn't get it: no, symptoms of mental illness are not, in every case, majorly or solely the result of Dealing With Capitalism. Sometimes, they can be! Sometimes the symptoms are situational, and those situations are heavily related to how much capitalism sucks! But many times they are not. I am sorry, but mental illness and trauma and neurodivergence are still going to exist even if capitalism completely goes away. We still have a responsibility to treat the people affected by and experiencing these things with compassion and understanding. We still have to. You know. Acknowledge that their life experience is going to be a lot different than many other's is.

no y'know what i am going to be a little hater about cooking actually. particularly how i see people handling raw meat. I have seen too many Professional Chefs fucking touch raw meat bare handed and then just wipe their hands on a towel before touching something else. fucker you WASH YOUR HANDS. BEFORE AND AFTER TOUCHING RAW MEAT. DO YOU HEAR ME. SOAP AND HOT WATER. and that TOWEL is contaminated too now. you're just going to put it down to let other people touch that? sling it over your shoulder and get it on your clothes?? and then also I'll see people wear gloves and touch raw meat and put it on a plate and then TOUCH the OUTSIDE OF THE PLATE to hold it and move it like to the fridge or whatever. YOU'RE JUST GOING TO TOUCH THE PLATE AGAIN LATER. POSSIBLY WITHOUT THE GLOVES? those germs on the outside of the plate aren't going to die. but you will I'm going to fucking kill you over this

I love my dogs I do but I need them to stop putting their sopping wet noses on my bare skin and for one of them to stop licking any INCH of skin she can possibly find. It’s going to make me scream and cry and throw up. Oh my god

Currently thinking about how after 1991 former GDR citizens could access their Stasi files to see what info was collected on them and who exactly was informing on them. Could you imagine how long and extensive Gilbert’s would be just because of the sheer amount of bullshittery he got up to over the course of four decades?? It would be mental

Trauma is so funny. Because I've been watching Code Lyoko with my partner system (Constell) and one of the main characters is named Jeremy and whenever I say "I'd hang out with Jeremy" or "Awwww be nice to Jeremy!" my brain is like "WOAH WOHA. JEREMY (ABUSIVE EX!?)" and I have to be like "NO NO IT'S JEREMY (CODE LYOKO) IT'S JEREMY THE MIDDLE SCHOOLER THAT CODES NOT JEREMY THE SHITHEAD THAT ABUSED US AND THEN HARRASSED/STALK US ONLINE FOR LIKE 2 YEARS. CHILL. CHILL!!!!!

your ocs music tastes are so cool! im glad to see a japanese jazz fusion mention :Dc (my fave jp jazz/punk band is midoria so far!) does francesca have a fave riot grrrl band?

This is an awesome question thank you!! It’s always hard for me to put down specific real life bands white whale fall characters would listen to because 1: I don’t know all the music in the world (I wish I did) and 2: I’ve never nailed down an exact date it’s super vague but white whale fall takes place maybe somewhere around the late seventies. So that cuts out a lot of music that I do know!! Also ashamed to admit I haven’t actually listened to a ton of riot grrrl. I’ve listened to a lot of stuff that influenced the movement and WAS influenced by it- but I wish I could name more actually self identified riot grrrl bands I like -_- I will say an era appropriate band that Francesca would definitely love is x ray spex. I started writing/concepting wwf at a time that I listened to x ray spex a TON and they’re very connected to Francesca in my mind. X ray spex was the earliest influence I can think of to write characters who were in a band and also they are the reason that band has a saxophone in it!

So @rhapsoddity told me that I could design VSAU Zedeath, and well, I did, not because I'm back into HC again but because it's Zedeath's bday today and I thought it would be fun. So. Here he is, VSAU Zedeath.

(Reblogs with tags/comments are appreciated, go follow Rhaps for his silly AU it's so good, thankyu)

Why are some people convinced that germ wrote the entirety of elden ring's lore without adding any fantasy element and then miyazaki added all the stuff
