#I have veritgo and it’s really

[motley-cunt]

sorry I think we just need to talk about this again. I really. Really think we do. Just all of it.

[liminalitycarb]

Xenoblade 2 - Final Chapter (Part 4) - And thus, boy met girl.

So first we were in an airport.. and now we're heading into a metro station...

And I'm getting the same veritgo from this STUPIDLY LONG ESCALATOR just like I have had in REAL LIFE....

And after a quick comment on how everything on this part of Elysium is just like the rest of the World Tree and the security checkpoint, it seems like everyone decided to ditch Rex Batman style.

Oh hey! Nia's back and.. in sepia tone... and apparently very angry at Rex right now..

No Nia! It's not Rex's fault. He just promised Pyra he'd bring her to a place he's never seen, doesn't actually know if it exists, and didn't actually consider the consequences of going to what was basically touted as "the land of the gods."

Oh... wait you're mad at him also for being Pyra obsessed and not noticing you. To be fair... I don't think Rex really sees ANYONE in any form of romantic capacity.

APPARENTLY WE HAD TO FIGHT NIA!? Which... It's weird that Rex has the Aegis sword on him in these cutscenes... and even pulled it out right before combat... but then I was forced to use Roc and his Dual Scythes instead...

But Nia wants answers Rex! Why did you lie? ...HEY! DON'T RUN AWAY REX!

Oh hey... it looks like somehow Rex ran away from Gormott and Nia right into Mor Ardain and Morag.

So... is this just the Mani Mani statue playing on Rex's fears here? Are we actually in Moonside? Will we say Hello, and goodbye?

Okay.. yeah.. this is either Rex's self doubt and fears manifesting.. or this is everyone ELSE'S dark thoughts manifesting in Rex's brain space.

And after another fight and a few more choice words, Rex decides the best choice of action is to RUN AWAY!!!

And... third verse, same as the first two. But this time we get a two-for-one special on the Rex existential crisis express!

Poppi just wants to be a real blade Rex! WHY WON'T YOU LET POPPI BE A REAL BLADE REX!? ... why is Rex getting flack for Poppi not being a real blade...?

And as expected, this existential crisis does have a hint of truth to it. Rex did just constantly rush head-first into everything in this game without really thinking of the consequences of his actions. Which is probably why this crisis is working on him.

Oh, and even gramps (BACK IN BOAT FORM!) is here to make Rex question himself. And to ask how he'd like it if he had to experience what blades and titans go through.

Oh, we left sepia tone world as Rex got to Leftheria. And he's receiving a warm welcome from... Pyra... AND MYTHRA!? HOW ARE THEY IN THE SAME... WHA... HOW... WHAT SHENANIGANS IS THIS!?

And on this iteration of existential horror... we have the domestic life where no one is trying to shame you for anything you did, and instead it seems everyone is just trying to be nice.

THE WORST HORROR IMAGINABLE!

And after a little bit of dinner, and a small argument on why Mythra isn't allowed to cook for Rex, it seems Rex just can't take anymore of what has been happening. Honestly, I'm surprised he lasted this long from this whiplash before finally breaking down. Poor kid...

Oh Rex... yes, you did go wrong somewhere but not in the way you think you did.

And it seems Pyra thinks Rex has had enough and asks the Architect to end this. I hope you all enjoyed today's trip on the existential crisis express!

Not to be like a real bummer on main

(just venting about like personal health stuff)

but i don't really have anywhere else to vent in an open ended manner, and maybe ill delete idk

its just...that like.. ive been struggling with these really scary health issues for a few months now.

and no one really talks about how lonely the journey is from being a person who functions in a generally normal manner to a person who is completely depleted after a simple trip to the grocery store for example.

im in mourning for the life i thought i was living, and im in limbo while i wait for the broken joke of the us healthcare system to do the thing so i can get a diagnosis.

meanwhile im unable to take my kids to their extra curricular activities, or even be excited for halloween for them because i literally am unable to do anything other than make sure they get to school, and get myself to work.

anything other than those things are being sacrificed rn because i dont have the energy and when i am able to find the energy for things, i tired very easily and trigger a barrage of other symptoms (nausea, veritgo, headaches, numbness and weakness in my limbs, back spasms that last for hours, extreme fatigue and brain fog)

im so tired

im so scared

[daydreaming-memories]

[from biscord, probably will do the sin stuff l8r]

[Patch: 5 times about crow]

doing like 5 important things in my mind, this is for Crow

1. Eldritch being who can flip his shit on a dime, was created from a mad science experiment

2. He has a dead brother ghost (clark) who is practially older than him but often mistaken as his younger brother.

3. He is mainly MLM/Masc attracted, and often calls himself gay though he has had some feelings for those who weren't masc.

4. Can and will flip his switch at any time at the smallest thing, so he bfs usually hang with him to calm him down.

5. This man has like 15 boyfriends and his polycule just keeps growing.

6. Extra fact, he's one of the many ocs that have a bunch of spinoff ocs off of. and ngl I think he was originally inspired off Castiel.

[Justin: stuff about cell]

Cell was an experiment by godly beings to create the perfect ruler for his species, but was deemed faulty after various inhumane tests.

Luvin, X, Nyanxie and Gorgus were also apart of these tests though only Nyanxie and Gorgus really remember the times and also Cell.

He loves barbie movies and is shit at makeup, he taught himself. also painted his abuser's vechile BRIGHT SPARKLY barbie pink after stealing it.

if i were to give him 2 kins, Count Bleck from super paper mario and Megamind from megamind

[Justin: Limboheart info n grover insp]

FOR like absolutely no reason I got the grover inspiration, think I had recently heard more news about the new live action series based on percy jackson.

And I think it was also as a counter of his counterpart being a lion who was actually really tame/docile and limboheart was very aggressive and just violent.

but both are fucking insane ngl. Lionheart (counterpart) literally took a gunshot to the ankle and kept moving, and then basically seduced all the major crime bosses.

While limboheart is just a salty man because he hasn't confessed to his crushes.

[Patch 5 things baout clark]

1. Clark died from a deadly allergic reaction to cats, he still loves cats as a ghost and does not care

2. He looks like 10 usually, but he's actually an adult. It just feels weird to him generally to shapeshift into an adult, and when he does it's usually like his idol who has a ton of cats.

3. Clark will scare the living daylights out of anyone who hurts his family or those he considers family, but is also a prankster.

4. He loves being a trickster, and candy, even though he can't really eat he can and will steal candy.

5. He refuses to go into anyone's body, even if it's a robot or his own corpse. He doesn't like the feeling

6. If he didn't die, he would embarrass the hell out of his brother Crow around the other's crushes and probably would get oftenly in fights but in like a sibling way.

additions, Crow has a fondness for birds and is known for his pet Lucky the yellow and peach lovebird

And crow and clark 100% would adopt like any abandoned pet they find.

[Patch 5 for franmy]

1. He's gone through many changes, but he's half corruptin ; type of vaguely object species that can shapeshift into liquid and disappear in the shadows, and half ashen ; the object species of ashopia, in the original concept he was a petty man who didn't care about like anyone and was a spy, but now he blorbo

2. He has some ninetails/Kumiho inspiration, just like generally trickster fox spirit, also he has tattoos.

3. ITS not shown in the art with philip n pico but he actually has splatters/veritgo on his legs and arms plus body/face, two on his legs when looked straight on look like a heart together.

4. He has like 2 exes who are poptarts/strudels, which weren't the best. The one was with a woman who was honestly really toxic and borderline abusive to him, and the other was another poptart who had a chunk missing from her head. The two were engaged but things were broken up due to Razzy (poptart) originally using him for information on the corruptins, though they're slowly mending things.

5. He loves the shadows and collecting shells, and used to live in a cave though has upgraded to a house with the poly gang.

6. The ice powers were inspired by ninjago, and there's even an art piece inspired by the old ninjago intro, though there was no one inplace for Wu or Lloyd. But Franny was Zane which inspired his ice powers.

7. franny really hasn't had any major spinoff ocs, him and pico generally being tied in the main 5 poly gang members for having the least amount of characters that were spinoffs of these two. Also franny was the (unofficial) ashopia rep for poly gang, and Pico was the shape people rep, Retired was the l0s rep, Allie W was the Mlp ng rep (an old group).

[solarzilla]

Honestly i never get the point of supposed darker imprints from comic companies like Veritgo to Black Label from DC and Marvel Max from Marvel since a lot of the books under those labels are not really good and just kinda an excuse to be edgey as hell.

Hell the label is kinda pointless when there are book series under DC & Marvel that are even darker without the Labels & available to everyone else.

The only advantage they have is being more fluid with continuity but that's kinda pointless with titles like lucifer where they reference the main books, along with being referenced in the actual main books.

Its even more confusing as hell when the veritgo books were also part of the main universe and later drifted away from them.

Dc's Black Label also includes reprints in which point, just have normal reprints & trade paperbacks, it just looks like you're wasting time and effort on this

[stumacher]

how are you 24 without a driver's license

it’s actually pretty simple:

be me

grow up lower middle class

have parents who work 40+ hours a week to cover basic amenities

be involved in extracurriculars like music and drama programs (so ur busy in addition to having schoolwork)

go to a 4-year university 4 hours away so you have to live on campus

you only go home for winter break and maybe spring break

you become an RA to help pay for school and sign up to work over winter, spring, and summer breaks bc the pay is p. good

when you’re back home, your parents are still working 40+ hour weeks and don’t have a lot of free time / energy to spend teaching you how to drive

the car you were practicing on dies so you have to wait and save money to buy a new one

you can’t afford things like driver’s ed bc again, lower middle class, it’s just not in the budget

you have to wait until your parents are free (namely your father bc your mother’s veritgo issues have been really messing her up lately and she can’t be riding around in a vehicle with a new driver for 2+ hours without getting violently sick)

your parents work 40+ hours a week and are understandably tired and can only teach on days they get off early / days off (which is only twice a week)

i mean this is just a rough outline but it basically boils down to time & money and how we don’t have a whole lot of it

[ultraferal]

(Risky) 1, 7! (really risky) 6!

1. “@” people you want to be friends with

this is awful and i’m going to be honest i dont want to @ anyone bc i dont want them reaching out to me bc im incapable of making new friends or interacting with anyone rn kfdjhgkjfdg maybe another time when i feel better im just not in the right head space

7. tell an embarrassing memory or story

i went to a jewish summer camp every summer for a month and there was a weird thing when you drop something in the dining room (a big giant room where like 400+ kids eat together) everyone has to clap at them for dropping it. so when i was the server (every day someone in your age group is choosen to be the server for their table) and ofc it was on shabbat.

i was holding a giant bowl of matzo ball soup (im like a small 6 year old) and in a freak accident (veritgo) i dropped the giant bowl all over myself and im covered in soup and it drops to the ground AND EVERYONE IN THE FUCKING DINING ROOM. JUST STARTS VIOLENTLY CLAPPING AND CHEERING AND IM JUST SOBBING HYSTERICALLY WHILE THIS IS ALL HAPPENING AND IN SO MUCH SHOCK MY COUNSELOR HAS TO PICK ME UP AND CARRY ME TO THE CABIN TO GET CLEANED UP FKDJHGKDJFGHK it was TRAUMATIZING. 

6. whats a really good memory you have?

when i went around nyc with my dad and we walked everywhere, did that giant park, went to musuems, and our favorite jewish bakery and jewish bagel store thats really famous in the city together. we both really loved it alot and he got a shirt from there LMAO we went to a really famous jewish deli too. we went to paris together too and traveled all over and had so much tea in all types of bakeries. visited the jewish area of paris too. every memory traveling alone with my dad is my favorite.
