I did a thing!
I submitted an online testimony for the HB 1355 bill and learned a bit more on asian-american history. Maybe after a bit more research and getting my thoughts together better, I can share my findings here? It's shockingly relevant to recent times and the events happening now :0...
I was really thinking about going there to speak publicly in person, but when I was invited, I really thought it would be a calm and relatively structured event, like court cases or something where everyone gets a chance to speak. But I just now got a chance to look at how some of these hearings go down and uh... some of them get really chaotic.
I really don't think it's how this one will go tomorrow, but I am by no means prepared in every aspect to provide that level of participation. I am still really proud of myself though for being able to contribute in a way I felt comfortable and being open to the idea of doing what might've had to be done to take direct action :')
#dyntalks#I really#REALLY wish#i had more time to absorb everything instead of scrambling to understand the situation#I didnt even know the full nature of this event...#hghhghhhgh#its been a stressful few days#but i feel like i can finally relax a little now...

i have waited long enough to say this but LORD DEBLING IS AN ASSHOLE.
i cant fucking take all these tweets and "opinions" saying penelope should've ended up with debling and that debling is better than colin
all those people can go and (i can't stress this enough) fuck themselves!!!!!
A man in his mid forties looking for a bride in a room full of eligible women in the age group 18-22
He was looking for a wife in the room full of girls who wished for a good match, loving and dashing husband.. but HE wasn't looking for "love" as he would always love nature more.
He wanted to marry asap so that he could leave for his tour, which also meant:
he wanted a wife who would basically be his housekeeper and look after his estate.
which probably also mean, since he doesn't have a family, he would leave for his tour but not before getting his supposed wife preggo so that he will have an heir to continue his legacy in case something happens to him. that's why he was looking for a wife urgently this year.
he was looking for someone LOYAL? but when did he ever give any hint that he would not cheat? he was the one to roam the world meet thousands of people.. no promise of being loyal himself but wanted to leave a wife behind him to take care of his properties AND be alone waiting for him?
The way he didn't need more than one hint that penelope was in love with someone else to cancel his proposal makes me sickkk, not a chance, no understanding, just a direct assumption that she WILL cheat behind his back.. its a proof he just wants a housekeeper and someone to make and look after his heir, NOT. A. WIFE!!!
Also, lets look at this from penelope's angle.
to all who think lord debling is in the race and there is a debling-penelope-colin love triangle are sadly mistaken and once again i blame media illiteracy of people.
the only reason pen even looked at debling's way was because she gave up hopes of LOVE and a happy fulfilling life. When she realized if she wants freedom from featheringtons for rest of her life she needs to get out there and marry someone from whatever options she can get,to fit in society. she gave up on waiting for colin to love her back, she gave up on colin (and thus, the first polin kiss). And the first, only and best option she got was lord debling.
And as for colin..
When he said "I would never dream of courting Penelope Featherington", The intent behind his words was not to belittle Penelope but rather for his friends to know that the nature of their is relationship as friends only.
(ofcourse this is obvious because colin could never say bad things about penelope.. evrr!! but once again.. media illiteracy! or should i say colin haters)
saying colin is a rake who "slept around half of europe".. colin is 22 or 23 years old. trying to fit in society. trying to find a purpose, trying to find intimacy and not feel distant. he is young, he was single, young, didn't have realization of his romantic feelings for yet.
but people are acting like debling in his mid forties did not sleep around.. he literally travels all the time, colin is still half his age. And also, in the show nothing implied he would stay loyal while on tour after being married.
colin didnt realize pen was in love with him so as his friend, a man, he always kept his distance respected her boundaries as a woman. He interacted with pen very less at the balls and events because he is seen as an eligible suitor in the eyes of society and it wouldn't help pen get suitors. in season 3, he hears pen and wants to help her (selflessly as he did with others) to get a suitor - but started realizing his feelings.
but the day he realizes his feelings for pen he didn't play around like other MLs, went straight away to pen, managed to come on right time to stop debling's proposal, he didn't play around.. just confessed his feelings then and there!
i am 101% convinced that whoever keeps saying pen should've ended up with lrd debling really wants her to live a miserable, lonely life even after the show keeps telling us she wants a loving, fulfilling life after what she has to go through with featheringtons.
wanting penelope to end up with old ass debling who is distant detached over a young tall and handsome man who is also her bestfriend, who she also loved ever since she first saw him?.. its cruel. its simply HATE.
"colin couldn't match her intellect"
"colin will definitely end up cheating"
"who would want to marry a rake over a rich smart explorer who would be gone for years and you could live a life like jane austen"
"it felt like throwing the fat girl a bone"
stfu. gtfo. kys. fys.
#sorry for the rant but this particular topic makes my blood boil#they really hate penelope#they could've asked for the same thing in other seasons where ml was repeatedly deny his feelings and kept going for the sister#colin realized he was in love and went down on his knees infront of penelope#FUCK DEBLING#bridgerton s3#bridgerton season 3#polin#bridgerton#polin bridgerton#colin bridgerton#penelope featherington#RANT

D&G - choi san - 산
Y/N was known to give an amazing show, her modelling agency had called her in to give her the best news she could have asked for. Walking for Dolce And Gabanna, it was a dream.
It was time, standing behind the scenes waiting for the celebrities and guests to arrive and take their seats. Y/N nerves were creeping in. It would have been a breeze if they hadnt have mentioned that her favourite person had been invited to attend the show. Youre wondering who this is, well its Choi San. Known for being one of the best and kindest souls to ever walk this planet, with looks that could kill a person.
The music starts, cueing the models all to get into place, last minute touchups being made and the doors swinging open. All nerves long forgotten for the time being as Y/N focused her soul into her work. It was all running smoothly until the moment she had finished, she thought to herself that she would get out of this show unscathed. Oh she thought wrong.
San was admiring the clothes, really intreguied by the pieces as everyone walked past him, but Y/N had really caught his eye. The piece that she wore was beautiful, really exentuating Y/N figure in all the right ways. But he couldnt take his eyes from Y/N face. The natural makeup highlighting key points of her face and this drawing in Sans attention not to mention the winks and little smiles that Y/N gave as she walked past, hoping not to get caught.
Everyone managed to get the show done it was time to get out there and greet people, the infamous afterparty. Y/N had changed a nice dress given to her for this event, she made sure to highlight it and showcase it off to everyone.
Taking a glass of wine from the tables lining the entrance Y/N took a sip looking around, before choking a little as her eyes land on san.
Dressed handsomely in a white suit from last years collection, he really looked something out of a royal movie. He was glancing around clearly trying to figure out if he wanted to be at the afterparty. Feeling somewhat the same and wanting to just rest herself, Y/N took a gulp of the wine and walked towards san.
"you look like you want to be here" Y/N said laughing a little.
"My names Y/N, You?" Y/N said trying to play it cool infront of him something striking a confidence she didnt know she had.
"Well hello to you too, my names san" san said laughing a little.
"Well i must say you look handsome today" Y/N remarked a slight blush creeping up her face as she locked eyes with San.
"You did amazing up there Y/N, True beauty doesnt often land infront of me like this" San said being the first to slyly grasp Y/N hand bringing it up and placing a chaste kiss to her hand.
"A princess like you should be worshipped" San said not stopping the rare flirtatiousness come out of him like a tap.
"Well arent you something huh san" Y/N said giggling and trying to turn away to hide the blush on her cheeks.
San laughed noticing the blush but not wanting to probe into Y/N and ruin this chance before he even got it.
"You wanna come back to my hotel its not far and you and me both dont exactly fit the afterparty type huh?" San said laughing as he felt his own blush creeping up his neck into his cheeks.
"Y-Yeah sure why not" Y/N agreed grabbing sans hand and following him as he lead them out of the hustle and bustle of the afterparty.
Getting back to the hotel he turnt to Y/N, any other thoughts leaving his head as he leant into Y/N slowly gaging a nod from Y/N he leant in kissing her deeply, tongues dancing together and breathes getting caught together.
San was going insane slowly, the way she felt in his grasp was something he could have dreamed about. "God youre incredible" San spoke as they pulled away only to notice that Y/N eyes were blown wide and full of a lust that was powerful, he looked into her eyes before leaning in and whispering into her ear.
"Bedroom now, i want you naked and on all fours at the end of the bed by the time i get there" San said leaving a bite on her earlobe.
Y/N was done for the way the words left his mouth left her almost drooling, getting up quickly and moving to the bedroom stripping down to nothing and getting in position she felt helpless in the best way he had her wrapped around his finger.
"Good girl" San spoke as he walked into the room taking the belt off and tapping it in his hands.
"Do you think you deserve anything princess, i saw the way you was flirting with me, this is what you wanted from me isnt it, you knew excatly who i was from the start" San spoke a breathy laugh leaving his mouth as he cracked the belt watching the way Y/N body flinched and the wetness buliding up in between her legs clear and eviddent to san.
San couldnt hold back much longer he needed her just as bad as she needed him before he could even get a response he let his fingers trail down her folds, collecting the wetness onto his fingers and feeling the way she would clench around nothing. Begging silently for him.
"Look at you being so needy for me, just want me cock dont you doll" San said lowly before taking himself out of his clothes, lining himself up and thrusting into her harshly.
"Made for this arent you, such a cockslut... thats obvious to see" San said grabbing a handful of Y/N hair and letting out a breathy laugh. his hand gripping onto her hip with every thrust. sure to leave a bruise in its wake.
The way Y/N clenched around him with every word he said was mindblowing he didnt know if he could hold back much longer. Thrusting harder he let his head roll back as he felt the warm familar feeling collecting inside him. The noises tou made were guiding him to reach his high too. "gonna make me cum baby, gonna make you mine, no one can make you cum the way i do, youll only remember my cock now" san growled slamming into Y/N mercilessly.
San couldnt hold back anymore, he flipped Y/N over gripping onto himself and stroking himself more, "Open wide baby" San said watching the way Y/N Let her tongue hang loosely from her mouth. "F-Fuck" was all san could breathe out before releasing all ober her tongue, some of it falling and landing on her cheeks and even runnig down onto her breasts.
"Fuck youre made for me" San said before catching his breath and moving slowly, laying next to Y/N and pulling her into cuddle placing a chaste kiss to her forehead before she dosed off.

"This is a formal event, Sampo."
In an almost lazy way, Sampos head rolled to look at Gepard, that ever prominent smile dancing in the dim light.
"Hello to you to, my good captain~!" He didnt even bother to straighten up, slouched against the table with a drink in hands. "Dont you know how to greet a pal?"
Despite himself, Gepard found himself chuckling, a faint smile on his lips leaving its remnents as it disappeared.
"We are far from friends, Koski."
"Ouch~!"
But they were both smiling, that lingering, damned familiarity between them as they held an unspoken truce for the night. Gepard just sighed, unfolding his arms as he stood next to the conman, fidgeting with the cuff of his jacket.
"And for the record, Cap, I did clean up~ See, aint even got a speck-a dirt on this thing~!" Sampo took him by mild surprise as he stood up, tossing his bangs from his face as he made a show of his attire. "Sampo Koski always brings his a-game, after all!"
That made Gepard huff, humoring the conman for a second by glancing over him, shaking his head lightly.
"I meant your hair."
"Eh? What about it?" His hands flew up immediately, tossing his bangs around again as he ran fingers through the gelled up parts.
"Its the same as usual." Gepard leaned back slightly, folding his arms again. "I thought youd might slick it all back, or.. something."
That gave Sampo pause, before a grin split across his face as he leaned forward.
"Ohhh~? I had no idea our beloved Captain paid so much special attention to me~!" Gepard froze up as Sampo spoke, red darting rather visably across his face.
"Wh- I dont-! Its-" He sputtered to his own defense, straightening his back. "I- Its only natural, Ive been at the head of your arrest-!"
And Sampo just laughed, playfully pushing his bangs back as Gepard looked at him again, peering up at him.
"You must like how I look alot if you wanna see more of this ole mug." He winked, Gepards breath hitching as he quickly looked away.
Sampo burst into a cackle at that, turning back to rest against the table.
"Awe, you can just admit your fond of me, captain~ Sampo Koski doesnt judge~!" He put a hand on his chest for a bit of that iconic flair, though he paused upon hearing Gepard faintly laughing into his hand.
"Your a menace." He sighed, side-glancing Sampo as something unnamed seemed to dance across his face.
"I try my best~" He played along with it though, bumping his elbow against Gepards arm. Something made him pause though, curiously leaning over again to see Gepard picking out a flower. "Whatcha doin?"
"Here." Finally getting one loose, Gepard turned back to Sampo, tenderly pushing most of Sampos bangs back out of his face again. It made him pause, unbidden pink springing back up to his cheeks as Gepard gently slipped the white rose behind his ear, pinning his hair loosely in place. He carefully lifted his chin, checking his handiwork before being satisfied with it, smiling. "There. That should work."
Sampo froze in spot, not even moving as Gepard let go and dusted off his hands. It took him a full second to reboot, startling back upwards in surprise.
"Eh?"
Gepard glanced up again.
"Oh, its to keep your hair out of your face." Gepard mumbled, trying to get the flowers to look nice again without their centerpiece. "Your eyes are quite pretty."
And you could practically hear the crash sound as Sampo totally blanked, barely registering hearing Serval calling for Gepard.
"Enjoy your evening, Koski." He bid farewall, waving his hand slightly before taking his leave.
"Uh- uh huh." And Sampo was left dumbly watching him, pink turning to red as he was unable to see the splotches of red covering Gepards face and neck.

hi hii!! could you do prompt 1 & 6 with jouno? thank you!
1 (“you know i wasn't lying when i said i'd kill for you”) + 6 (“I love it when you scream and it's all because of me!”)
jouno my beloved but i struggled a little bit, still had a bunch of fun though!
-WC 889 // valentines event open!! tws: getting kidnapped, Jouno degrades reader a little
You lived in a quiet little down, nothing went down, nothing unusual happened. The morning birds chirped blissfully while they watched from above. Sitting down near a pond while nature flutters around you, just admiring the gente ripples going to and across the water. As of late, there was an investigation of a possible rogue wanted ability user resting up in your down, having sent the best military dogs to find them. That's how you met Jouno Saigiku, full of pride and always with a smile. You were one of the people he questioned, however you took note your questioning took longer than the other people in your town. You shrugged it off as maybe they were just faster in their answers but some of those questions did get a little personal. Even his wording was a bit off, “you’re one of the people who I would kill to protect.”
Again, you didn't want to say anything. You shook off the thought, they’re only gonna be here for a limited time and most likely never again so you didnt concern yourself too much. The day went on as usual, nothing really standing out. Everyother breath and step felt like you were being monitored even if it was in direct sunlight. Sometimes you’d even bump into that man again, Jouno, his tone was kindly spoken, however the words not really. Quick to turn to something dark humored but you gave a little laugh. You still respected him because he was here for a reason.
You did notice weird shifting while trailing to go home, a hand quickly reached out to grab you and pull you away from your destination. You failed to scream out in time and everything else fell in darkness.
You woke up dizzy, as you were in an unfamiliar place, the light was awful on your eyes, closing them up and squinting. The person who kidnapped you gave an awful smile as he told you, you weren’t gonna live long. Your eyes were watering, heart pouring out fear with every beat. Not a lot of details were spared to you, the guy simply going off while you’re stuck to a chair in an unfamiliar place. You tried to calm down and eventually started to lightly sleep, there's really nothing else you could do. However, before you could fully fall asleep you heard shouting and banging, it jolted you up, staring at the door where the noise was coming from. In all honesty you couldn't help but let out a small scream. You swallowed nervously, looking down at the floor and gaining some sense of calm. Trying to breathe in and out slowly despite the tremble in your breathing. Finally the door opened, you could hear faint drops of something hitting the floor while footsteps were walking towards you. “What a shame we meet like this again.” that voice, it was gentle.
You look up and see Jouno, gasping seeing the state his clothes are in, while the red of the uniform was able to hide it well, the blood on his face was clear on what happened. He chuckled as he closed in, freeing you from your binds. “If it's not clear already, I wasn't lying about what I said earlier, I did say I would kill for someone like you.”
You were confused but chose to stay silent while he helped you up, the smile on his face never shifting while you were gathering your thoughts. “Maybe it seems you deserve to be more secluded so this doesn't happen again hm?”
Nothing was making sense on what he was saying but you still were stunned to speak, the exhaustion of everything was getting to you and it was impacting your will to think properly.
Jouno obviously notices and sits you down, while you lean on his shoulder and close your eyes while your breathing gets calmer.
The next place you wake up, it wasn't your house again, Jouno was by your side, holding his head up with his hand. You were even more confused about what was going on. Yet Jouno only gave a smile and straightened his posture. “From now on, you’ll be staying here, it's just a precaution.”
This didn't help your confusion, you knew something was being hidden but you didn't want to push anything. “Afterall, I am just worried since you walked off and got yourself caught by the person we were looking for, just a magnet for trouble.”
You were getting overwhelmed again and you started bumbling questions on when you would get to go home, Jouno got a little closer and started to whisper, ” you’re never leaving here, you’ll be under my surveillance. After all, don't you prefer something else over the sorry mess you called a home back there?, you almost got killed, I don't want that happening again, you were defenseless in there.”
You started to raise your voice in disbelief, tears building up as the stress was becoming too much for you to handle. Yet all Jouno could give back in response was just a few simple words, "I love it when you scream and it's all because of me." making you silent before continuing. “I couldn't help myself the first time I heard your scream, shame it behind that door, it was lovely to listen to.”

For you, and you only
A/N: I hope you guys enjoy!
This is my first time writing for cyno so his is a bit shorter 😭
Heizou,Kazuha,Kabukimono and Cyno (seperate) x gen neut!reader
Headcanon,fluff,not proofread, Kabukimono is Scaramouche 😭
♡♡♡♡
HEIZOU ▪︎ analytical harmony
He loved solving puzzles and mysteries and you knew that when you started dating him
He'd take you to events that was specifically made for nerds who loved using their brains
You ended up just following him around though as he did all the puzzle solving 😭
Every once in a while though, you would solve a simple puzzle/crack the code/find a clue and he'd praise you like youre the smartest person ever
Proud bf coming through
But when events like that are not available, he'd make puzzle boxes and give it to you
Inside that said box, would be a little paper filled with sweet little nothings, or just a simple "have a good day today love :))"
Must admit, you look forward to getting those puzzles from him
Its that little thing which makes your relationship all the more sweeter
KAZUHA ▪︎ Scarlet Leaves Pursue Wild Waves
Gentle, poetic, a gentleman and handsome, he is truly the package
What more could you ask for anyways?
That man wants to let you know every waking moment that you are deserving of his love
And what other way would be more romantic than giving you weekly haiku's
He's settled on making one every week so he doesnt overwhelm you too much (which isnt true you love how he expresses his love)
And he wants to make a Haiku that truly resonates how he feels towards you
Kazuha only wants the best haiku's given to you
Alwaya puts his all into it
Because you deserve the world <33 (thats him he is world)
Sometimes, when he reads his haiku to you he'd give you a maple leave, or something he saw that gave inspiration for his latest haiku
You kept them all, youve got a shelf full of the trinkets he gave you as he recited his haiku
And placed his haikus in a special box
His goal for writing haiku's was not only to remind you of his love
But to also comfort you when he isnt around
Kazuha is a wanderer, a ronin, his home is in mother nature and he wants to travel
You understood of course, you would join him in some of his journeys when fate calls for it
But if you cant, reading the haikus he gave helps a lot as if he was truly there with you
His love is with you all the time no matter how far apart you both are
CYNO ▪︎ Judicator of Secrets
When you both first started dating and youre upset, Cyno usually freezes up and stares at you
Dont blame him though, he was afraid anything he did would make you even more upset
He never wanted to make you upset ever
You were his lovely partner he only wanted to make you smile and happy
It was really hard, especially with his serious personality
After a few months though, he finally found a way to comfort you
He'd sit down next to you in silence
Then crack up the most downright horrid joke ever with a blank face, looking straight at you
It never fails to make you laugh
He knew you were laughing at the fact that the joke was bad
But to him it didnt matter because he ends up seeing you smile
You were the only one who actually liked his stupid jokes, and listened to him as he explained it in great detail
You made him happy
It was time for him to return the favour
KABUKIMONO ▪︎ Puppet without a heart
He is a puppet, barely understanding human emotions but always trying his best to be just like them
When you both started dating, he felt more human than he ever did
He adores and appreciates you so much
He wants to be able to pay back all you have done for him
He doesnt know how to though, human emotions are complex and beautiful
Just like Kazuha, he wants to give his all when it comes to appreciating you and expressing his love for you
Sometimes, he'd walk by the shore of the beach
And if by some chance he's lucky, he'd find a seashell that reminds him of you
He doesnt pick a random seashell no, he'd collect all he sees as he walked around
And when he thinks he's found enough, he'll pick the prettiest one that reminded him of you
When he gave you a seashell for the first time and explaining in full detail why it reminded him of you
You almost cried, you appreciated it so much you made it as an accessory
He loved that you brought it around
That man started going out more finding more small things that reminded you of him
Half of the time he has his eyes stuck to the ground finding things to give to you
Everyone teases him for it, but Niwa would always defend him
Kuni just wants to see your eyes sparkle and see you smile when he gives you stuff
He wants to be the reason you smile
He'd spend his whole life time finding ways to make you happier than ever
♡♡♡♡

tbh i dont think we have talked enough about what it meant for ludgercasey to get the official stamp of approval from the marias selmore™️.
the entire arc is mainly about marias setting them up for various tests because she wanted to know if their relationship was real and would actually work out well for both sides. casey mentioned that marias would not let them be until they gained her trust, and trust them she did, but its not because she was convinced by their acting or bluffing. lbr they were both terribly underprepared for it. they didnt know enough about their opponent. they didnt even have a script for what to say or how to act. there was barely any preparation or discussion in this regard, which is pretty wild if you think about it when this is the ludger 'i established my own personal elite force for a heist, and we spent weeks prepping for it' cherish we are talking about. its all ad-libs until at one point they couldnt help but just get comfortable with being themselves since marias, who was full of doubt from the start, wasnt so easy of an opponent that they could just bluff their way through with some lovey-dovey acts and the only way they could avoid getting caught was to mix some truths into their words and actions.
hilariously and very much unintendedly, they passed all of marias' tests not as a pretending couple but as their true selves. they successfully convinced marias that there was something between them because they accidentally broke out of their characters and lovingly(?) argued in front of her. without even trying, they also successfully convinced marias that they get along and understand each other extremely well by naturally following and contributing to the other partys deductions. casey successfully convinced marias that she was serious about her situationship with ludger by telling her that forcing a relationship would only risk it becoming more estranged, which too is not an empty claim but a principle that casey actually has been following as she tries to mend their friendship. ludger successfully convinced marias of his commitment to casey because instead of calling off their deal that was unexpectedly spiralled in a way that could now risk his life, he decided to take the initiative to go above and beyond even when its still ambiguous that he could gain any benefit from the ongoing events.
in the end, marias selmore approves them not because she was fooled, but its especially because she saw through their actual/honest chemistry and feelings towards each other. the relationship she supports is not the one that is between casey who is pretending to be ludgers fiance and ludger who is pretending to be caseys fiance, but the relationship between the real casey and ludger themselves. and most importantly? she believes that this isnt a one-sided feeling from casey at all.

I AGREE SO MUCH ABOUT CHILD BRIDE. i went into it knowing nothing about the author, and in the forward shes really emphasizing how crazily obsessed she was with priscilla so i guess i was expecting it to be a sympathetic view of her😭 definitely not. what is suzzanes problem dear lord. shes so convinced and desperate to tell you that priscilla was some evil teenaged succubus out for rockstar blood. jesus christ. like girl even if she actually was who gives a shit????? same goes for currie grant. i dont care if he showed the author concrete evidence on a golden platter that he was telling the truth. hes just such an obvious sleazeball. just disgusting……. and she dedicates like 300 chapters to him saying over and over again that he fucked 14yo priscilla and that she was into it. babe they couldve had a steamy decade-long affair and NOBODY would care because he is literally just some random creep ass loser 13 years older than her. and when it comes to his attempted rape of her hes literally like “no i didnt try to rape her i just [decribes attempting to rape her]”. i really dont know suzzanes backstory but she is insane.
but uh. anyways that aside i did enjoy parts of the book for the more in depth view of the story. like suzzanne has such intense bias that really shows throughout but even with that it was still a great way to understand some of the situations a little better… i wish elvis and me was a little more detailed but i can appreciate how and why it is. and i am strangely curious about the actual nature of priscilla and curries relationship (i dont think they ever had consensual sex but i do believe he attacked her before elvis left germany and that leaves me curious as to why she still hung around him afterwards... i.e. those pictures of her to send to elvis that he took)
sorry for the huge wall of text im just.... very .. intrigued? by the book? its just so bizarre and raises a lot of questions lol.
“Currie’s like “No I didn’t try to r*pe her I just [describes atttempting to r*pe her]”
YES THANK YOU!!
if I could, in my own words, summarize the transcript of the conversation between Priscilla & Currie it would be this ⬇️
Currie: I didn’t r*pe you
Priscilla: You forced yourself on me
Currie: I didn’t force anything, you just weren’t into it
Priscilla: So you didn’t try to kiss me?
Currie: Well yeah I was trying to kiss you, you just wouldn’t kiss me back. You were very cold
again that was just my own words so not the actual transcript but that is exactly what I got out of that conversation- which is Currie denying he forced anything on her while simultaneously describing just how unresponsive she was to his advances, so THANK YOU for articulating that perfectly
He is an absolute sleaze-ball as you said, and clearly did not realize he was incriminating himself throughout that whole exchange
like even if Currie’s version of the events were true (I highly doubt it), he still committed statutory r*pe. Perhaps Suzanne and him don’t understand the age of consent but a fourteen year old girl cannot consent to intercourse, so anything he may or may not have actually done to her is still R*PE, whether she seemed willing or not. I’m completely abhorred that a biographer would give a man like that such a large platform and not only that, but agree/go with the story he tells- I’m sickened by it
and god, his reasoning as to why he wouldn’t need to r*pe Priscilla is just the most insane thing I’ve ever read ⬇️
“I had at least ten girls that I could call any night and go have sex with them,” countered Currie. “I’m not bragging—at least ten. I didn’t need to rape anybody ”
excerpt is from “Child Bride” by Suzanne Finstad
okay like?? Ted Bundy had a longtime girlfriend and yet he still went out and s*xually assaulted and murdered women… what’s your point, Currie?
what also bothers me is that Suzanne Finstad is sitting on the full audio tapes of that conversation between Priscilla and Currie, and knowing her history of misquoting people and writing things that don’t line up with other testimonies, I wouldn’t be surprised in the very least if parts of that tape have been conveniently left out, or transcribed wrong, as she converted it from audio to text
like the whole 1961 photoshoot, as you mentioned, is something that I just wish I could hear Priscilla explain for herself
Priscilla Presley and Currie Grant in 1961
It does raise the question if what she said transpired was true why would she ever want to be alone with Currie again, and better yet, why would Elvis willingly put her in a situation like that?
Especially when he was aware of the attempted r*pe ⬇️
MARTY LACKER: “There was a guy who used to bring Priscilla around to Elvis’s house some, over there in Germany. He would take her home to her parents’ place, and then he’d go back to the barracks. Well, he was a scumbag. He was using cute little girls to get into the house, to be around Elvis. And he tried to put the make on Priscilla one night when he took her home. She says in her book that he tried to rape her. But he didn’t succeed. Elvis told us about it, himself”
excerpt is from “Elvis and the Memphis Mafia” by Alanna Nash
The only explanation in my mind that makes sense is that perhaps Currie Grant was Elvis’ only remaining contact in Germany- or at least the only person in contact with Priscilla- and since he was so desperate to see her again, maybe thought that the reward outweighed the risk
And obviously a 15-year-old Priscilla was still reeling over him leaving Germany and would likely agree to anything to please him…plus since it was Elvis who asked Currie to take the photos, maybe she thought if Elvis trusted him to do that, she could trust him as well ?
And although I doubt she intended too, Suzanne inadvertently said something similar when trying to do one of those logical fallacies that she does throughout the duration of “Child Bride” ⬇️
“Priscilla, despite her claim that Currie tried to rape her, was thrilled to oblige, “desperate” for word from Elvis, through Currie”
excerpt is from “Child Bride” by Suzanne Finstad
I feel like Suzanne is basically answering the dilemma herself despite her attempt to point out the inconsistency in Priscilla’s behavior (her being afraid of Currie, but also being around him)
Priscilla was willing to be photographed by her attempted assaulter as she was desperate for contact from Elvis and Currie just happened to be that link between them
and I have to say, my original response to the ask that I received about “Child Bride” was something that I was worried about posting as many of the more passionate anti-Priscilla crowd tend to treat it like it’s their Bible but WHEW- I am beyond relieved that so many people have also seen just how outrageous that book is, especially the narrative that Suzanne Finstad goes with- like as you said, trying to make a fourteen-year-old Priscilla out to be some “teenaged succubus” LMAOOO (that took me out 💀)
I honestly consider myself to be Priscilla-neutral despite what some people assume of me based on some my posts 🤧 and so because of that, I am very open to reading and discussing the valid criticisms against her HOWEVER- I have no time in my day to take someone like Currie Grant seriously so that is why the first half of “Child Bride” (chapters about Germany and what fourteen-year-old Priscilla may or may not have done) are just what ruin the whole book for me
And it’s a shame because again, there are some very valid things that Suzanne points out about Priscilla, especially the things that were left out of “Elvis and me”; like her inconsistencies in recalling certain events, her sometimes questionable character (treatment of others), her possible greed (suing and more suing) and the biggest one to me- her involvement in Scientology… but all of that is just dampered by Suzanne’s god awful commentary and god awful judgement
also girl please do not apologize for sending this in- I sincerely thank you for adding to the conversation about this book as I think these kinds of discussions are so beneficial and I’m just truly grateful to be able to have them with y’all- I’ve fr learned so much from your guys’ insight
and since there is such a surplus of information about Elvis (and Priscilla), I feel like the best way to navigate through it all is by breaking it down like this, and so if y’all ever want to talk about another book feel free to send in your thoughts <3!!!

Hello! I saw your Pokémon x Twst post and was wondering if maybe you could do a Kyogre!MC? I’m not sure what your limitations are on legendary Pokémon. But thanks for looking at this!
No limits!
It may be a hassle at times but there are bo limitations on pokemon at all! Including types of scenarios.
Also, if anyone is gonna request a next scenario, pls put of what type of relationship you would like to see the boys with the Pokemon MC.
TWST x Kyogre MC
❤HEARTLABYUL❤
Riddle, at first, didnt exactly put any thought of you until he came to appreciates your wisdom and helpfulness, especielly when capturing Grim in the entrence ceremony and after the overblot incident. He would always invited you for tea and have a nice calming time togather from the chaos you always have to solve.
The Vice-Prefect cant help but be reminded of Lilia when he meet you but nonetheless, he would be great full for saving he's childhood friend and healing both him and the injured players. Trey was amazed when you used Life dew to heal he's ankle and able him to play again in exchange to be careful next time.
Cater had the same feeling of Deja vu when he felt something about you but shrug it off and just continue buddy up ya and even let out a few playful flirty comments here and there. He almost had a heart attack when you said that you dont know nor have a phone.
Ace quickly learn to try to be at your good side at all times to avoid your deadly aura and "magic" after you had scared him stiff when you two had first meet.
Though he and Ace get into trouble alot, Deuce is atleast more tolerable than him and you respect how he wanted to make up for he's delinquent past for he's mother to not worry about him and not to make her cry again.
🦁SAVANNACLAW🦁
Leona finds you quite interasting. Though abit irked that you reminded him of a certain Lizard, he cant deny that he is intrigue and wary of ya when he had smell a powerful scent out of ya after you had used a small amount of that life dew of yours on he's tail as an apology.
Ruggie had tried to use he's UM on you since you had became a hindrance to their plans when you had used Life dew on the injured victims yet he's attempts keep on failing and ending him up with a traumatizing warning from you. After the whole events in chapter 2, he come to respect you especially when you had gifted him some pearls you had found when you had heard about he's familys perdaciment.
Had seen you in the hallways twice or thrice but didnt pay you much attention until Chapter 2. Jack had become one of the ones who respect you after you had save everyone from Leona's Overblot state and during the small match between you and him with the rest of the Savannaclaw students, which had resulted in a tie.
🐚OCTAVINELLE🐚
Azul definitely ring alarms in you when you somehow were sorted into Octavinielle. He's smile, aura, offerings, EVERYTHING rings something wrong about him, especielly when he had tried to offer you a chance to be one of top in the exams but you had immediately rejected it, much to he's disdain. Your power was something he longed for, yet after the he's overblot catastrophe, he will let you be and tries to form a decent relationship with you....and not go through another punishment by a legendary.
The Tweels definitely gave you the chills. They almost remind you of a group of humans long ago that had tried to use you but the Eel Twins are on another level while they in return thought of you as some kind of new target in their radar. You three are good acquaintances nonetheless but you prefer to keep you guard up at all times.
🏜SCARABIA🏜
You and Kalim had been dubbed as the "Rain Fall Duo" due to your abilities to call in rain and how your mature and he's childish nature seem to blend together somehow. When Kalim refused to use he's UM during the walk in Chapter 4, You were the one who refiled the dried up area by using your Rain Dance and let me tell you, many witness including Jamil and Kalim had a spine chill when you had scold him for he's stubborn and harsh behavior. Not even an tyrannical hypnotized Kalim will make you bend down to your will.
It was both relieving and suspicious to him that someone else is taking care of Kalim whenever he isnt around. Jalim had this gut feeling that what he was doing was wrong whenever he hypnotize you with he's Snake Whisper but he brush it off until he had regretted it when he was battling you during he's overblot state. Your rage and combine with your powers to summon typhoons was enough to send everyone the message that you arent to be messed with.
👑POMEFIORE👑
The way you move gave you off an air of elegance and royalty, or even more. Vil applaud for your wits and grace but aslo kinda irk at how you keep on saying that you didnt use any type of make up or anything at all to help with your beauty. A small fashion show is a must for your walk with flowy clothing definetly fits together very gracefully as he would even ask for tips on how you walk like you were dancing on water.
It was kinda iron that Rook calls you a Goddess withouth actually knowing that you are one. A dranch of water and threats will not stop this Hunter to continue he's admiration stalking for you. He always has an eye for seeing beauty and you are no exception for he is determine to take in everything you throw at him to learn more about you, Ma déesse de l'eau.
Epel thought that you were kinda like Vil or one who dosent like to get her looks ruin when he first meet you but when he saw you in battle, sign him up for your secrat fan club! (That you didnt knew about) He wanted to be like you, especially in a style of fighting that Vil cant disagree it is elegant.
⚙IGNIHYDE⚙
You and Idia never meet in person before, nor actually get the chance to know eachother well until the end of Chapter 6. The eldest Shroud shivered and scream in fright when Typhoons, thunder, tsunamis, underwater earthquakes, and violent whirlpools had suddenly appear out of the blue but the captured boys knew better, that this is your doing. Though compose, anyone within a mile radius knew that your anger for Idia is recognizable. Atleast at the end the two of you tried to mend a good acquaintance between you two.
You and Ortho are kinda neutral so there isnt much going on between you to, just friends. Ortho have gotten curious when he had heard that the old dorm, the Ramshackle dorm, has been renivated and has a big lake behind the building, he gotten curious and went to see it which is how you two meet by having a small chat near the quiet and peaceful lake.
🐲DIASOMNIA🐲
Your Aura alone could give Malleus a run for he's money. The fea heir was intrigue when he had first meet you and dare i say, even enamored with you at how kind and wise you are, as well as not even knowing him which had given him this feeling starting anew with this strange yet wonderful change in he's entire life that he was used to.
Youtful in appearance but wise, experience, seen everything that had happen before and are ancient. Lilia and you hit it off when you two meet during the lunch of the first day of school. You two entertain eachother with tails of your pasts of each of your worlds, reminiscing of the olden days. The older fea once chuckle when he witnesses you uncharacteristically ranting your anger about your "brother" who is the complete opposite of you in terms of elements and status.
You and the human are pretty much neutral. Dont exactly interact alot but nonetheless acknowledge eachother and respect eachother of their own characteristics like Silver in he's swordsmanship and your control over your power.
Sebek...is abit questionable at times about your relationship with him. He's loud and obnoxious voice irritates you but at the same time, he's loyalty and strife to do great was also admirable. He once heard from Malleus that your power could rival he's own which immediately send Sebek on a frenzy that you are threatening he's Waka-sama!.... but lets just say that it ended with him being quiet and more nervous around you.
Sorry that i havent posted anything yet lately but I have been busy with school lately so it might be a slow update so I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Yet despite this, I will try to update as much as I can and I am already making another Pokemon x Twst AU so be prepared ;)

So sorry for the random vent in your ask box Pommunist, but I just keep seeing peoples posts about saying goodbye to the fandom and while im so glad to see so many people had such positive experiences with interacting I myself didnt really see much of it. I dont know if its cause im just more of a lurker and so I wasnt really making friends and memories with people around the qsmp but I honestly saw an overwhelming amount of negativity and even negativity mascaraing as positivity. Being in this fandom did not teach me togetherness it only taught me just how cruel and mean people are. Over all I honestly dont feel like qsmp reached its goal to bring communities together if so much of the fandom is volatile and actively will attack fans, ccs, admins, just about anyone. There was so much zenaphobia both in the fandom and in the studio. Purgatory was so poorly put together the streamers were having live disagreements and fights (that they thankfully usually got sorted quickly but was still DEEPLY awkward to witness and many people would just leave, wait for the fight to get worked out and come back) and not to mention how angry the fandom was over EVERYTHING at the time. And all that was done ON PURPOUSE. How can we say the the QSMP reached its goal of brining communities together when that simply did not happen? People are still split up in "the Brazilan fans" "the French fans" "the English fans" ect. Like im sure SOME people feel like THEY got something out of it and thats great but dose that mean that OVERALL as a full whole that the QSMP did that? Id argue no.
I’m going to say something that I almost never say lmao but I think a lot of it isnt Qstudios fault.
A lot of it is tied to the nature of twitch stream in as a storytelling medium. Take a normal TV show, people will still find ways to argue all the time about which character is in the right, whether or not a plotline was good etc. And they’re all watching the exact same thing.
With twitch streaming, people have their favourite characters and everything they see is from their pov, which is biased by nature and ultimately lead to a lot of misunderstandings, especially when everything said goes through translation.
Now add to this the second thing which is that some people got into qsmp with zero interest for it and its goal. They were first and above all else a fan of their favourite ccs, and never had any intention to open their mind to anything more than that.
Meaning that for them, everything that was beneficial to their fav, they liked, and everything or everyone that wasn’t, they hated.
Purgatory was the perfect event to lethally mix these two together, which wasn’t helped by that it was a poorly thought out and poorly executed competition event with high stakes (or so we thought at least lol).
Then you also have the xenophobes/mysoginists/shitheads who will just throw hate based on discriminatory reasons or simply because they’re assholes. I’ve seen takes that genuinely had my jaw touching the floor, but that’s the thing when you merge communities, the bad ones come along everyone else sadly.
On top of that they also ruin the fun for other people which lead to some just wanting to stuck with the community they were already a part of before qsmp.
On the other hand, QSMP still allowed people to share parts of their cultures with each other, pick up and learn each other languages, make people who would have never met without it befriend each other.
Personally before it I had never watched English or Portuguese content on Twitch, and now do regularly. I didn’t know any of the streamers besides the French speakers, Fit (watched his vids) and Rubius (only bc he was against the french in the pixel war), and now I’ve discovered many amazing ccs.
I was able to discover and learn a lot about how people do things in other countries, met cool people that I would’ve never met. My opinion on this is probably partly biased due to the fact that the specific communities I’ve been active in are almost comically all peace and love but I’ve also seen a lot of shit, just chose to focus on what was good.
I think QSMP fandom is kind of like if you and a bunch of strangers from around the world were shoved together in a bar. Most people are going to talk and drink and have fun together, but some of these strangers are bond to be assholes who will talk loudly and look for a fight, making the night a bad experience for those who stood near them.
So yeah I think QSMP achieved its goal to an extent, and built bridges between communities but the experience was soured by some who either didn’t care about crossing that bridge or even tried to actively sabotage it.
#qsmp fandom crit#oh my this is long#tbh anon I would say the best course of action is to focus on the people that are worth it#of course it’s impossible to ignore the shit but don’t let it ruin everything that’s worth your attention#also a 1k blocklist on twt help i have found out lmao#asks

Tall Tales: part 7
lets goooo 💯💯🔥
Ok I love this cause its raining rn and I was writing a scene where its raining and its night and now IRL its r a i n i n g and its n i g h t it's like im a manifestation wizard you should all cower, oh by the way heres the rest of that fic i promised ya (I didnt promise you shit, this exists only because i am a merciful and kind God.)
Also lets play a little game of spot the metaphor/ hidden message!! Its pretty obvious if you know anything about literature !! Good luck!!
Avril woke to the surrounding warmth of the giants hand, giving them blissful comfort from the chill of their new surroundings. They wriggled around to get a better look. Kneeling, they peeked out of the large hand; A cave big enough to hold the giant at full height sheltered the pair from the slowing patter of rain outside, a shallow breeze blew through the large entrance, keeping the cave almost as cold as the outside. At least it was a bit less wet, they thought.
Avril felt a small twitch of Jaces' fingers; apparently, their stirring had awoken him.
They sunk down lower, making sure they wouldn't be knocked off if the giant made any sudden movements.
Big, drowsy, half lidded eyes blinked open, slowly landing on the little thing in Jaces palm.
Avril gave a tentative wave. Jace let out a small puff of air from his nose, smirking.
As cute as they were when asleep, he loved the humans shyness, though he was sure that eventally he would get them to come out of their shell, he had seen their spunk before, a real person behind the mask of fear.
"Mornin' " he sighed, stretching his free limbs out.
" .. Hi.." Av uttered quietly
Jace sat up slowly, minding the little being he held.
He sat up against the cave wall and admired his tiny companion. They were wonderful, short, blonde, ruffled hair framed their face and brown doe eyes looked up at him adorably.
" you sleep well, av ?" he asked, though he wanted to ask a more open question, it seemed the simple 'yes/no' questions were easier for them, baby steps.
" Mhmm" they replied
" Great " he sighed
Loking out of the cave jace saw that the rain had nearly stopped.
" hey, not sure if your too much of a morning person but, the suns about to rise... Did you wanna come watch?"
They thought for a moment, sure not being awake at the literal crack of dawn would be nice but...
" .. Yeah, sure"
Jace beamed
"Sweet. And, hey... I, I know I was, absolutely awful to you... Before.. I just, i guess I got carried away but I hurt you, I didnt even realise cause' ive never actually met a human" he rambled
" but I know that's not an excuse for hurting you and making you scared and being a complete dickbag, so, Avril, im Sorry. Im sorry for hurting you and im sorry that I teased you and-"
He was scilenced by a touch on his thumb.
" ... Jace, its - well its not ok, but, , well- thank you."
He hadnt even realised he was crying.
Jace smiled through teary eyes.
"No, thank /you/ for... Well for a second chance." he said
Av paused for a moment.
" yeah,,, a second chance" they said
Jaces smile grew and he wanted to hug the human through any means, but he reisisted knowing it would probably freak them out.
"Oh hey, it, uh, stopped raining..." avril said, breaking the scilence.
Stepping towards the entrance of the cave the two saw the sun begin its ascent into the new sky, lighting up the previously dreary dwelling to reveal a new side to it.
Outside the cave the rain left dewdrops on everything, turning the scene into a shimmering chandelier. It hilighted the mossy green rocks, cracked from age that sat just outside the cave, beyond lie a beautiful willow tree that framed the caves entrance. Rain dripped from its leaves and tapped a slow rythm on the ground
Pip, pip, pip.
A small breeze blew past, carrying the blooming scent of nature and rusting the willows leaves.
The birdsong slowly began to crescendo, announcing a new day to the rest of the forest and all who inhabited it.
Jace briefly looked away to see avrils reaction, they were enthralled, wide eyes taking in every gorgeous detail as they stood leaning off the side of Jaces' cupped hand trying to take in as much as they could.
" its beautiful..." they said, unable to look away lest they miss a single second of the mornings beauty.
"Amazing what nature does, you cant find this stuff anywhere else." Jace replied, equally enthralled.
" Thank you" avril said
" thank you? For what?"
Av thought for a moment.
" just.... This."
Jace smiled, he knew what they meant.
" yeah, of course."
The sun rose higher as the wind slowed and the pair continued admiring the stunning morning.
" hey, seems pretty clear now, you want to head back ?" jace asked
" yeah, sounds good" av said, plopping down into the massive plam and resting their arms on the cupped edges.
Jace began the trek back, following the river upstream.
"Hey, humans eat fish, right?" he questioned
"Uh yeah, what, you got a fishing pole my size?" av joked
"oh, much better" he hinted
Av turned and quirked a brow at the giant.
" what?" he said innocently
Av rolled their eyes, whatever awaited them would surely be an adventure.
#g/t#giant/tiny#giant#tiny#gt art#fanfic#my art#G/t hurt/comfort#micro/macro#is it too late to apologiiiise#ok im really proud of that little vingette in there#Idk their dynamic lol#Im gonna do some goblin tagging now heheheheh

I broke the code Pt. 3
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
AO3 link to the fic!
Joel we're booooooored
The soil crunches underneath Joel's boots as he beelines to the back of the wagon with a loud yawn, grabbing two empty barrels and wrapping them on either arms to his sides. Once he deems them firmly secured on his hold, he turns back to the entrance of the inn, heading to the creaking staircase that leads him to their room.
I can't believe you're doing chores of all things
what a moron
Taking a deep breath, he closes the door behind him with a soft click, having to physically suppress himself from slamming it right here and then. His eyebrow twitches as he attempts to filter out the mocking comments, rendering them into white noise whilst he heads back to their wagon.
They won't live it down if he slacks off, so he has to at least do his share of the responsibilities.
LOL
LMFAO
HAHAHA
blood
He's such a child, he should've just refused instead of listening to Etho
#obsessedmuch
Joel bites his lower lip and controls himself. If he retorts to what they're saying, he'll just be playing on the palm of their hands.
Do they even have any, considering they're disembodied voices?
tbf he's obsessed so it can't be helped
pfft
True
its fun to see you getting flustered
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEE
That's it!
“Listen here, you losers!” Joel growls as he slams his fist beside the wagon, producing a thundering sound whilst he takes a few deep breaths. “Grian kept on insisting like an idiot that we each have to contribute! Which was why I had to comply, otherwise he'll make me sleep outside. Etho just happened to butt in when I already decided to do it, alright?”
Suuuuuuure
keep telling yourself that
just admit it… you're obsessed with etho
Joel groans painfully, grabbing a handful of his chocolate locks and pulls as hard as he can, slamming his forehead towards the wagon for good measure. He can't lose his cool. Not when they're all exhausted from the long journey. His friends can't handle his ‘mood swings’ when he eventually gives in to the voices’ call.
if only the previous patrons were this entertaining to watch
🤝
Exactly
right?!
what do you mean?
oh the newbies didnt know
Now im curious
The least he can do is to not get in their way.
all the previous ones love to keep their distances
ugh
GROSS
imagine being a loner what a loser
L
L
It was difficult to see any intriguing events outside of battle
did someone say blood?
Not now
:(
i like joel better bec of dis
one way or another hell backstab them for sure
With a huge gasp of air, he does his breathing exercises and accompanies it with stretching both of his arms above his head, lowering it when he exhales before raising it again as soon as he begins the cycle again. He's already used to the voices’ antics—taunting him for as long as they desire—so he knows what to do whenever they pester him and eventually demand for blood once more, satiating their thirst with his assistance.
“Joel!”
He jolts violently at the call, swirling around to see Impulse jogging towards him, waving his arm with a big smile on his face. No matter what the dwarf says, Joel will always think of him as some sort of teddy bear. Considering he's so good-natured and how he secretly adores the warmth of the man's hugs, he's not really beating the allegations. But that secret is only between him…
what about us???
YEAH!!
…fine, them as well.
“Hey, Impulse! What's up?” Joel greets casually with a smile, swiftly tucking his hands to his pockets.
Impulse peeks over the now empty wagon and gapes, leaning back to stand to his full height as he makes eye contact.
“I see you're already hard at work! I'm very impressed.” Impulse compliments as he nods approvingly.
“It's good to stretch these muscles every once in a while outside battle, you know?” Joel shrugs his shoulders before stifling a yawn.
Impulse's smile seems to drop for a moment before it returns. Based on how fast it was, he ignores it and treats it as a trick of the light or something.
“But it's also good to take a breather.” Impulse advices thoughtfully. “Grian is already off to hunt down for his artificer friend, and Etho is sewing another one of his masks in our room.”
Joel's clammy hands are starting to soak his pockets.
“I'm cool. I still have to gather logs for our next journey whilst it's still bright out.”
“That's fair.” Impulse stops for a moment. “Hey, how about we check out this town's tavern later?” He nudges his head to the side, giving no indicator of the specific location.
“I would love to, but it's my turn for tonight’s lookout, remember? We can't afford me being tipsy and all.”Joel explains nonchalantly.
boooooooooooooooooo
it wouldve been fun
😭😭😭
If it had been any day, he would've probably accepted the offer. It's his best opportunity to escape his responsibilities and simply fool around. Unfortunately, they've been getting more and more restless recently, so he has to steer clear of people until their slowly rising bloodlust completely subsides. As funny as it is to annoy Grian, he has to restrain himself.
He can't risk another accident to increase the list of reasons to ban him from a settlement, after all.
“Oh, man. That's such a shame.” Impulse shakes his head and turns around, facing his broad back towards Joel. “I heard that they've been offering discounts for any drink during weekdays, and I thought it was a good idea to save money and enjoy their beverages at the same time.” He slumps his shoulders with a dejected sigh.
“Wait, did you just say discount on any drink?” Joel perks up, already feeling the saliva gathering in his mouth. “You're not pulling my leg, are you?” He raises a brow sceptically.
“I would never!” Impulse gasps in disbelief and faces Joel once more. “You know about me and my hobbies, man. I would never lie about such a thing.” He points out in a serious manner.
“That's true.” Joel places a hand under his chin, considering his later plans for a moment.
“How about we play a game?”
“A game?” Joel repeats.
“Yep!” Impulse pops the p. “Whoever empties thirty tankards last gets to pay for all our drinks. Won't they taste better when free?” He leans forward and holds out his giant hand with a smirk.
“I couldn't agree more.” Joel grins. “I'm in! You're so going down, Impulse!” He shakes the offered appendage with his own small one.
He doesn't remember anything after that.

If I recall, isn’t all of the events since Izuku’s disappearance from Toga from chapter 348ish to now all occurring at the same time at multiple different locations and is probably, at best, half a day’s worth of time past? I don’t think we’ll be able to make an accurate timeline until AFO and Tomura goes down. Judging by the timeline, Bakugo got knocked out early while Endeavor and co were fighting AFO. Izuku probably got back to UA a bit before Kurogiri did his warping via Spinner and allowed Toga to Sad Man’s Parade a few battlefields. Thereafter, AFO escaped and met up with All Might.
My theory is that Bakugo seeing All Might’s vestige as he was dying back in the mid 360s probably is a hint that Izuku will know that All Might will make a sacrifice to stop AFO using a Bakugo-like Gauntlet attack, which is a callback to how Izuku and Bakugo defeated All Might during the Finals. It’s not that the All Might vestige is going to Bakugo, he’s going to Izuku, it’s that it is all full circle to how Bakugo to literally “beat” the number one hero.
Honestly I didnt really keep track with the timeline of events, all I believe to remember is that the ochako vs toga fight happend more or less at the same time as the afo vs endeavor and everyone fight. I need to reread the whole war when it is done to make sense of when what exactly happend. 😅
Not gonna lie, you kinda lost me at the end of your ask, because I have no idea what you mean with "its not that the all might vestige is going to bakugou, he is going to izuku", because the vestige was ALWAYS with izuku, so why should he go from bakugou to izuku? We still dont know if what bakugou saw in the "afterlife" was the all might vestige for real (where is it even comming from? It makes no sense for bakugou to have an all might vestige, its part of ofa!), an neardeath imagination, or just kind of an embodiement of all mights heroic nature that "lives" in everyone he inspires.
And I also dont understand what you mean with bakugou literally "beat" the nr. 1 hero, because it was izuku who made sure they won in the finals while carring bakugous unconsicious ass with him who archived absolutely NOTHING and would have failed the final exams if not for izuku. Maybe I just misunderstand you. 🤔

I WANNA HEAR THE LORE DUMP PLEAS
I HAD TO COPY PASTE AGAIN PLS WORK WITH ME
ITS ABOUT MY OC ENDO!! I REALLY LOVE HIM <333 BE GENTLE WITH ME THE INSPO SOURCE IS OBVIOUS BUT IM SHY WITH IT BECUASE OF HOW BASHED PEOPLE GET WHEN THEY DO THIS
ENDO BACKSTORY:
Endo was born and raised in Japan, moving to the city he lives in now after turning ten after his grandfather passed and left a Self Defence training school in his hands. Endo took charge of said school, and ran it with Cinder when he turned 14 as he was not yet old enough to own it himself. Shortly after he was 17 and given full ownership of the small school withint he town, he got involved in an incident that would change the course of his life.
Endo was exposed to a concentrated solution of nitroglycerin, a highly unstable and explosive liquid. Despite the solution mixing into the water within his body, he didnt go through with getting properly helped, soon gaining the ability to generate and control fire and smoke at just the age of 18, once he hit 20 he learned explosions and lava as well.
Endo quickly realized that he had the power to generate and control these elements, and he struggled to control his abilities. With his arrogant and hot- blooded nature, his abilities often ran wild, causing chaos and destruction wherever he went. However, he slowly learned to harness his powers and use them for good, becoming a powerful Vanguard in his world.
It's an even more impressive considering he's only over 20 years old with so much time and means to improve, and yet he's already rubbing shoulders with the top Champions.
Concept: The world-build that Endo lives in is akin to a stereotypical Hero/Villain concept. Terms were changed overtime to try and balance out the cliche view on those within.
CINDER
TEACHER, BUSINESS PARTNERS, CHILDHOOD FRIENDS.
Within the growing lore of the world dynamic and their overall relationship, Cinder met Endo shortly after his 'awakening' arc. A arc inwhich Cinder escaped from a coma-induced tomb within a lava rock after his own lore took place. After this awakening, Cinder and Endo met in highschool, Cinder being a few years older than Endo. It was here Endo explained to Cinder that, considering he is not yet old enough to own his business, yet he is old enough to work, he is offering the Self Defence school to Cinder to run until he is. This helped grow their connection as they grew, as when Endo was old enough, Cinder had since graduated from CTC, and was in the process of purchasing the entire CTC school itself, making Endo's school a small sister location for those not yet prepared for the hardcore training the CTC provides. As you can guess, their bond is extremely strong, and due to the events explained here, Endo was offered a spot in the CTC, which he passed with flying scores and, despite also being offered to be a Champion, he currently is a Vanguard while still teaching in his own school.
CTC: Champion Training Course is a course inwhich people who have abilities go to train to help better understand and expand them, know how to properly use them, but also to start training to be next in line for a Vanguard or Champion title. However if they do not meet the criteria needed to show they are responsible or confident in their training, they will instead leave the course and will return back to their life before the course with just a better grip on their abilities. This course offers free service to those who often are just curious to what they behold
THEN TO EXPLAIN THE CHAMPION / VANGUARD THING ITS THAT CHAMPIONS ARE PRO HEROS, VANGUARDS ARE JUST HEROS THAT NORMALLY GET CALLED WHILE THE PROS DEAL WITH THE BIGGER ISSUES
BC IN THIS WORLD IF U ARENT TRAINED U CANNOT BE HERO
BUT OFC THERES STILL OTHER MINOR PPL. LIKE I HAVE A GUY WHO IS IN THIS WORLD TOO WHO IS A CRYPTIC HUNTER AND THE ONLY POWERS HE HOLDS ARE WITCH LIKE POWERS LIKE THE WHOLE CLICHE BREWING POT SHIT
THEN OFC A CRYPTIC FOR THE CRYPTIC HUNTER!!! I HAVE MORE TOO
ITS ALSO SUPPOSED TO BE A SLICE OF LIFE STORY

Rant incoming, sorry!!
Do they even know WHY they are fighting and killing??
Im still trying to figure out why tubbo and bad thought to attack red first and then yell revenge when red retaliated. Like, why?? (I'm crow and red main so I probably won't watch the others for the lolz) Chaotic angst energy.
And people keep saying because of Dapper and what Dapper said. And I'm like "what?" Because with that same logic/energy qPhilza can say the same if decided to do the same. "Chayanna said to protect Tallulah no matter what- so Ima kill everyone in sight for whatever reason." That sounds crazy. Right? (Is it just me??)
Like we(their little community/family) been talking and communicating all this time why now does it go out the window? because some random guy who doesnt like us said so? (Quackity did warn them in Brazil tho)
We know the fed dont like us and can't be trusted so why are we not having that same energy towards this guy?
Like I get it, I do. Things are on the line or so it seem but why aren't we actually thinking things through?? Talking?? Coming up with a plan to get everyone and the eggs home. Do we not care for all life anymore?
Its about to be Day 3 and I am so drained from Day 1. Like Charlie's voice, I'm struggling now. My soul is heavy as a red pov.
And yes we won Day 2 but everything has consequences... like please..
I- I just want them to talk for more than a couple seconds.. minutes before thoughts of killing off rip..
*peepoHands*
(I hope it was okay to come to you)
Dont worry about the rant! I like hearing other peoples opinions on things and dont get many asks often so anythings appreciated.
As someone whose main povs are team blue i still understand you entirely but also can explain a couple things (in a similar ranty form lol):
First of all as to why they were killing: I think on day one the competitive nature of the event was at the forefront of blues mind. Bad had been told by his son (who, remember, he literally kidnapped a worker to save) to do anything to win even if it hurt others. Which honestly does imply hostility a bit more than chayannes message. Tubbo also wants chayanne and tallulah (and richarlyson) back like theyre his own children (and has definitely been over excited and trying to prove himself as leader of blue so is being more competitive for his own pride). They were thrust into this situation with all that in mind and just wanted to win by any means, or at least thats the vibe i got.
None of them fully understood the rules of the event either. They tragically fell to the tragic mcyt curse of not reading instructions. They didnt even think about the cursed team until i think it was slime who said he thought red was cursed at which point niki insisted (and still insists) she doesnt think there is a cursed team. Tubbo thought the cursed team changed daily, if you want further proof that rules were not at the forefront of their mind. They just wanted to win since that was what the eggs had said to do. Of course now ccs are more aware of the rules they are keeping them in mind but no one seems to be proposing full teamwork yet.
Funny enough, i think ive mentioned it in a post before but red being their target on day 1 was entirely on accident. Bad killed slime first under the impression he was on green and then continued to go for his team because they happened to be not too far. From what ive gathered, green was bloodthirsty but struggling to find the other teams so thats why blue and red originally started fighting. As for getting angry at retaliation? I think thats just competitive spirit getting in the way.
The whole thing was slightly frustrating personally from a viewer pov because im exactly with you in the fact that they should be talking. They should be figuring out the cursed team. They should be boosting the cursed teams stats. But they didnt understand that and instead went hostile immediately due to the newness of the whole thing.
Even yesterday bad was considering killing red and i was a little frustrated. I get that he was annoyed (if u dont know yesterday blue grinded global tasks but were barely gaining percentage compared to etoiles - at one point they handed smth in and got like 1% - and bad thought kills may have helped them a bit) but blue didnt need to win day 2! If anything that wouldve been detrimental to them considering the cursed team is still unknown (but bbh thinks blues cursed so...). Eventually he settled on bargaining with them by offering something in return for a kill but never got a chance to because he ran out of time. Still, the suggestion was a bit frustrating at the time as someone who was seeing red having a terrible time from liveblogs.
I definitely consider most of day one out of character, as there is no way in hell the characters shouldve been acting the way they did considering all they were supposed to know. Even if qbbh would do anything for dapper he definitely wouldnt outright hurt his friends or risk the other eggs chances of survival. (Also this entirely broke cellbits current arc of being very agressive considering how badly hes been beat down this event.)
Even just hearing about red on both days was draining for me. The one reason im not vodwatching them is that i could feel the draining vibes from liveblogs alone so i cant image what it must be like to main them and while im happy they won, their strategy today was a lot more aggressive compared to everyone else who was trying to tone it down a bunch so i fear for the next few days on everyones povs as the aftermath of that plays out.
Thankfully ive heard bagi wants to unite the teams and bad and baghera discussed getting a group together to theorise about the cursed team so maybe between the three of them things can start moving in the right direction and return to being in character and communicating. Todays the event which may not allow for anyone to unite everyone immediately but i hope they do sooner rather than later.
#discourse#qsmp discourse#not maintagging cuz this post sounds a bit too much like neg at times#its not hate im just whiny and fear it may come off as neg

Astral redesign no-one asked for, along with a slight AU/alt.story.
Unlike the original, we get a full backstory for Astral. He was taken by Eliphas as a young child away from his mother due to his unnatural talent and his strange ability to draw and create cards, something Eliphas recognized as the miracle of Zexal. His name had been Elpis or Apis (no one knows which) but Eliphas, who never remember which, just referred to him as Astral, to de...astralize (?)him. He's 14 physcially, but has been so for many many years, without remembering why (it was due to the Don K duel), and is known as Astral World's Star Child.
Personality-wise, he's pretty much the same. Sarcastic but also very soft, and shows more of a tendancy to worry about Yuma than in the show. He also has a very mothering attitude towards Yuma, to the point that Kaito or Shark have to literally go 'Dude, shut up! You're not his mom!' He also seems to be anxious alot, but when things come down to it, he is very mature and incredibly strong, such as during the Astral World Arc.
The Astral World Arc is something that i've changed in this au. Instead of it been several episodes on a duel, it's longer, with more events happening (no i dont know what the barians and the others were doing in this time i my brain juice ran out by that time). I haven't worked out all the details. The main outline is that Yuma ends up there, is rescued by Ena, and then is aided by a bunch of misfit teens, who are all Astral's friends from the past, along with a bunch of children who really really wanna help their 'Onii-sama' (turns out, Astral decided to take responsibilty for the orphans in the area and became their big brother, helping Ena to look after them all) but are unfortunantly a bit young. The group is led by Aphrodite, an intense, firey girl who is known for her ability to get in and out of places (she's even been to Barian world and back-and no one knew) and they go to bust Astral out of the crystal, and from there they take the injured Astral, who, instead of hiding, decides enough is enough, and decides to fight Eliphas, once they're ready, and everyone's safe. This gives Astral the chance to be the leader instead of backseating Yuma (who is, by the way, in full AWE of how grown up Astral is)
There are other stuff I've changed but my brain isn't working right now (did i create this all just because i wanted more astral world? maybe)
Also, his father is never mentioned by name, but there's a heavy implication that he is related to Don Thousand, who was the one who created Zexal (more on that later) as well as Aphrodite, whose full name is Aphrodite of the line Alkanah (shoutout to @thesilverlock for mentioning that name to me, i hope you don't mind me using it here :) )
As for design, like i wrote on the art, it's inspired by the zexal forms, as I wanted a link to zexal for Astral other than the hair colour and eye, plus i just thought it would be cool lol. his first design is based on zexal i and ii, and the third is zexal iii, because those are the zexal forms that occured at the time he was wearing them (speaking for zexal ii, the aftermath for sargasso is slightly different too, but i'm gonna talk about that later)
I decided to use Zexal ii for his down/natural hair as i know many people are like 'where there hell did that come from' and so i decided his natural hair would be basically that style to explain it, but as his og hairstyle is what he's known as, i didnt wanna change it, so it's just what his hair looks like when it's down (which is a lot of the time. duels dont like his hair. his bangs do it alot)
and he has striped pjs because beestral
#Zexal#astral zexal#au#my art#astral au#no i dont know how his hair work#i dont bother about that#also he can sing#very well#in both high and low tones#and yes he has trauma#of course he does
