Rad classmates with an mc who freaking loves Mobim like constantly with the little guy caring him,buying him candy,clothes etc etc

Oh this seems like a really interesting and also nice concept to explore✨I'm glad that a little demon like Mobim gets to get some love for once🙈so I'll do my best to write a satisfying reply☺ (btw, Domnra and Mobim's headcanons will be longer,since this ask focuses on them-):

THE RAD CLASSMATES WITH AN MC WHO LOVES MOBIM

DEMYA

Despite her frenemies/rivals relationship with Domnra, Demya has no particular problem or resentment towards Mobim, indeed she can even admit that it is a rather cute creature, unlike his demon master. She finds funny that MC adores that shy little bean so much and she finds even more amusing seeing them playing together, sometimes Demya would join too and contribute by taking pictures, not only as a keepsake, but also to embarrass Domnra. Seeing her mate being so affectionate towards Mobim,who is basically the size of a baby or a small animal, awakens some kind of demonic instincts in her, which make her view MC as a good companion and parent in case of a future offspring of their own. Demya would like to have a family in the future, but if MC isn't sure or doesn't feel like it, she's ready to compromise. It is known though that Demya is still a fairly territorial/possessive demon, so if MC completely ignores her and doesn't include her while they're spending time with Mobim,she might get a little jealous

DOMNRA(MOBIM)

Honestly Domnra would have mixed feelings about this, because on the one hand he would be happy that MC likes Mobim so much, because it is basically a part of him and by now they have a very strong bond, so it would have been problematic if there had been problems between his partner and Mobim(fortunately this isn't the case), he's also glad about his curse having another figure besides him that it can count on in times of need, given that in Devildom there are many dangers for such a small creature, however on the other ...Domnra would be slightly jealous of all the attention MC gives to Mobim or of how they spoil it, which is ridiculous, he's aware of that, because it would be like being jealous of oneself since the two share a soul, but in any case he would refuse to admit such thing and would just stare blushing with a pout at MC as they dress and feed Mobim lovingly, but other than that…he would be the RAD classmate who would appreciate MC's behavior the most, in fact if distracted,Domnra might let out a smile at the scenes between his partner and his curse

Being the recipient of MC's love and care, one can imagine Mobim's happiness at being treated with so much affection and consideration. Being quite a fearful and shy creature, it might be hesitant at first to receive so much attention, but with a little patience, it would get used to it quite quickly. Mobim adores sweets, it seems to have a particular preference for those from the Celestial Realm and would more than willingly accept MC's offer, as long as they don't overdo it, because then it would hurt its tummy. As for clothes, Mobim isn't used to wearing them, the only ones it can afford are doll clothes, however it wouldn't mind modeling for MC or showing off its new looks. Mobim's also quite affectionate and one of its favorite activity is to be carried in MC's arms (occasionally it even fell asleep there)

AZUL

He finds MC's attachment to Mobim adorable and also understandable, after all that little creature is very cute, polite and the size of a stuffed toy, so it doesn't surprise him at all that his lovely star has grown protective towards it, finding cute beings in Devildom isn't exactly easy, not for humans at least. Being practically Domnra's best friend, he's also very close to Mobim and they are quite familiar with each other, there's mutual trust, so both Azul and MC would have fun spoiling the little being, so much so that he once joked adopting Mobim and being its parents, but Domnra didn't seem too keen on that idea

ZURI

She would be confused by MC's behavior, not exactly understanding the reason for such enthusiasm for a curse like Mobim, especially when it has Domnra as master, who doesn't have one of the most pleasant attitudes in Devildom, however she wouldn't bat an eye and would allow her beloved to look after Mobim, reminding MC however not to spoil it too much, to prevent it from getting used to it or learning wrong lessons, it would be a pity to overwhelm the little creature, therefore she would advise them to moderate their actions, because although Mobim's both sentient and relatively intelligent,it's still as sensitive as a puppy. It would take some time to get Zuri involved, but MC could convince her to make tailor-made clothes for Mobim, since it's hard to find stuff in its size

ODON

They find the situation quite sweet honestly and MC's kindness towards Mobim makes them smile softer than usual, because they know that Mobim deserves such treatment after what it went through with Domnra's fall from grace. In Devildom such gestures are not so obvious and Odon themselves witnessed the cruelties that Hell has to offer and the monsters it hides,they were part of them many centuries ago after all, so seeing their dear friend MC acting so gently with a curse, gives them a little hope that perhaps one day they too could be accepted so openly, without fear or disgust. While Odon would limit themselves to keeping MC company while they take care of Mobim, two other creatures instead would seem more disturbed by this fact: Odon's eye-like creatures. They would almost look jealous of not receiving a similar treatment too and although they're aware that they do not have a suitable shape to be either fed or clothed, they would not mind receiving pets on their long appendages, however they would not act, probably at the behest of Odon who doesn't want to bother MC, so they would just stare at the human cuddling Mobim, one eye-like creature almost on the verge of tears while the other one with an annoyed look

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

Sometimes at work it's not my place to tell people the things I want to say, and I find I often go home at the end of the rougher days to stand blankly in my shower and tell myself over and over what I wish I could pass on.

This accomplishes very little, and mostly just gives me a tension headache, but through it all I think I've narrowed myself down to a few solid things I'd like to tell people the most.

You can't change people. Not permanently, not for anythig. You can support them, encourage them, love them, give them tools and opportunities and resources, but you can't make them change. They can change themselves if they want to, but they have to want to, and they have to want it for themselves, because they're the only one that's certain to be with them forever.

For better or worse, you make your own choices, and blaming bad choices on others doesn't only work to absolve you of responsibility- it also robs you of control. Because if you say you only did something because I did something, then you arent only shifting blame- you're admitting that you cannot control yourself, that you cannot truly make choices for yourself, that other people can control you- and as long as you truly beleive that, you'll keep facing the same problems over and over. You'll keep letting others dictate your choices, because you'll beleive that they can, and you'll never be free.

White knights on horseback are from fairytales. Nobody can help you if ou're not willing to help yourself. To try, to put the dirty work in, to belive you're worth that effort- Act as though nobody is coming to save you. From a struggle, from pain, from bad relationships, from yourself. And when you do save yourself, because you will, because failure here isn't an option if you want to survive, you'll never find another dragon that can keep you prisoner.

Don't say anything to anyone that you wouldn't want them remembering forever.

Doing the right thing in bad circumstances is hard. It's the hardest thing. But if you make the choice to do that hard thing anyways, despite your fear, you'll go on the rest of your like knowing that you're the sort of person who did something.

The present only seems the hardest because the past I over and the future hasn't happened.

There's so much joy ahead of you, the kind you can't possibly understand until you see it yourself.

The responsibility of consequences is often disguised as the power of permission. "I won't do this if you help me", "I'll work on my anger if you do this for me", "I promised you I'd quit, but can I have just one?". The unspoken question is, "Can it be your fault if this goes badly?"

You cant make someone love you the way you need to be loved. Someone can love you very much and still be bad for you, even if you love them very much in return. Two people can love each other very, very much, and try their very best, and still be wrong for each other.

Sometimes being near to someone changes you, even in good ways, and the people you become don't fit together as well as the people you were.

Caring takes work. Even if it's real. Especially if it's real. And the most important gestures aren't the grand, poetic, songs-and-flowers-and-tears moments; they're getting out of bed even though you don't want to. Paying attention to things you don't enjoy. Scrubbing pans, or opening a window, saying "thank-you", or helping carry groceries into the house. The small things fill the big things- without the small, boring, mediocre things, big things feel hollow.

Thrre is honour and dignity in humble work.

If you are a cruel and spiteful person, then you will find every place you visit to be full of the same cruel, spiteful people. This is not because the world is as cruel as you, but because everywhere you are, you will be disliked. This is the curse that comes with being persistently cruel and spiteful.

If you are a kind and ppsitive person, you will repeatedly encounter kind and positive people, because as they grow familiar with you, they will be happier to have you near. This is the reward of being a kind and positive person.

When splitting paths with loved ones, briefly or forever, aim for your last words to always be "I love you".

Apparently much-needed reminder that reposting artists' art (by saving the images or screenshotting them and reuploading them yourself) on other platforms without the artists' expressed permission and without credit is theft and an insult to their passion and craft. You are profiting (in views, in attention, in feedback) from someone else's work and ideas, who do not get that feedback for sharing their creation.

If you are an art reposter, you are a thief and I have no respect for you.

Part two of the reverse verse is here! The reverse boys meet the original boys. They're not really getting along as well as I had hoped...

Again, this was a commission for @i-am-as-normal-as-you-are and they asked for angst/funny vibes... I think it's mostly just angst though. Oh, well...

surprise i've had another insane person AU bouncing around in my head, it’s based on martyn's lore and the gist is gem gets brought into the games as a listener agent to investigate what's up (with the limlife swap being the test run <3)

Navigating a Fade manifestation of Lucanis' PTSD as the underwater prison he was held and tortured in, to help him start dismantling his fears, begin healing and also accepting Spite, to help them both stop fighting for control, is certainly not on the list of things I expected from this game, but I'm so in love with it.

Even before that, you just know that Lucanis is not alright. He can't possibly be. He doesn't talk about it much, but who would be after the experiences he's had? And there are signs all over the place. I mean, he keeps hiding in the closed space of the pantry like a feral cat under a couch, and likely not just because of Spite, for example. But he keeps it all in, just like he keeps Spite in. Or out, even, in this case. But you also know that he can't go on like that forever.

And now, Lucanis has finally hit the wall. Thankfully, Spite knows what to do. So, he briefly takes the steering wheel. "Help us." ("He'll listen! He always listens to you!" I feel totally normal about knowing this, thanks, Spite.)

Just... the doors of Lucanis' mental prison opening for Rook by themselves as they gently talk down each manifestation of Lucanis' fears and doubts as a metaphor for Lucanis letting Rook in and letting himself be vulnerable with them is just 👌 Delightful. We don't break a single lock. He opens himself up to us.

And it doesn't magically solve all his problems and restore his mental health, of course, but it's a promising start. I like how the game acknowledges this. Rook is there for him, easing some of the worst thoughts, lending him perspective that he lacks because his mental downwards spiral is so thoroughly suffocating at that point. They're helping him start somewhere. Of course, helping Lucanis reach an understanding with Spite, thus helping him end the constant and surely stressful and exhausting battle over his own body there and then, showing him that Rook accepts and cares about him the way he is, so he can start accepting himself that way, goes a long way. It doesn't fix everything, but it's an important breakthrough.

The way Lucanis looks at Rook afterwards, when Teia asks them if they're alright? Also great. 👌

Though I think Rook should be able to hold Lucanis for at least like 300 hours afterwards, because that's approximately the amount of time I need to cry about it - the whole thing, Lucanis' dynamic with Rook, and Spite's trust for Rook and his willingness to play nice despite having been ignored and pushed away for so long.

Actually, poor Spite doesn't get enough credit for all that. He really goes, "Fuck, if he's not going let me in or go to Rook for help, I'm going to pull them into the deepest crevices of his psyche, so they can see the mess for themselves," and improves the situation for himself, Lucanis, and his budding relationship. Good job, Spite!

[ID: a series of drawings featuring Riz Gukgak from D20 Fantasy High. In the first, Pok holds Riz's shoulders in heaven as says, smiling, when you work until the dead of night, your friends know you do it because you love them. In the second, Riz is having a group hug with his party and the text reads, but is it really love that drives you, Riz Gukgak... In the next, a desperate, pleading Riz clutches the shoulder of an indifferent, faceless person and the text continues, ...or is it fear? In the fourth, Riz is younger and digging through crystals with bleeding hands; the text reads, what use are you when you can no longer dig. In the fifth, Kalina, shrouded in darkness with only her eyes glowing, reaches towards the camera with a smile; the text reads, when you're too scared to think. Sixth, Riz is filling out Fig and Kristen's papers under the light of a lamp, serious and tired; the text reads, when you're too tired to work. Seventh, Riz is lying in bed, eyes hidden behind hair, hand on his father's picture; the text reads, too sad to keep the mood up. Eighth, Baron stares into the camera; the text reads, too lonely, too insecure, too weird. Ninth, Baron is holding a defeated Riz by the throat; the text reads, to keep moving? Tenth, Riz is standing in the distance, holding his briefcase, and behind him is a football/soccer ball; the text reads, what use is a ball that can no longer roll?

sometimes I think of all the on-the-surface warm, well-meaning but deeply ineffectual advice and attention john gives harrow through harrow the ninth (make some soup and get some sleep! get a hobby! don't be so hard on yourself! self care harrow! as long as I need take no actual responsibility in this relationship whatsoever I would have loved to be your dad!) set up against the stark truth that with his other hand he has been staging her attempted horrific murder again and again and again like a living nightmare on the logic that it will 'put her down or fix her'. and then I find that I wish there is a hell. a special hell where twitch streamers turned necromantic death emperors go

do you actually dislike the bird abode or just the creature designs? not saying the name directly so your ass doesn't get blasted by the tag

I like a lot of the creatures in it; the showrunner is a really fantastic horror artist and it really comes through in the aesthetics of the show. I especially like this hand dragon, though there's a lot of other great designs:

As for the show on the whole, it's not bad but not really for me? Early on it really feels like it's schtick will be that it's a subversion of harry potter-esque stories, where the protagonist wants to go on an adventure similar to her favorite fantasy book but instead ends up hanging out with the "villain" (who's actually just othered)/the magic school turns out to be secretly oppressive/the world is kind of gross and spooky instead of clean and approachable... but as it goes along I think it ends up being a pretty by the books YA fantasy thing played mostly straight, and it isn't super interesting or funny or scary or anything besides that. Which admittedly was probably to its benefit, I think a lot of its popularity comes from it being this very tropeish and not-uncomfortable magic school/found family story that's actually queer, like I genuinely think this is hugely appealing to the average cartoon fan on twitter, but I'm just not personally into it in comparison to a lot of it's contemporaries
