Hello to the Buddyfight fandom it's been a hot minute but god do i miss this show and have been making fanart for it in the background so i thought i'd post to tumblr too ^^
I swear every year I end up coming back to this show and wishing that it kept going, that it got rebooted, that i could just erase my memories of this show and just watch it all over again from the beginning to enjoy everything once again from Tasuku's own sense of justice twisting against him to Gao's suffering of PTSD and how heartfelt it was handled.
There's something very special about this show that I haven't been able to find replicated elsewhere. It has the most perfect world to exist (so much so that i'd love to be isekai'd into it if i could!!!) and while i have my own gripes with it (hi S3+) i honestly sometimes wish i could go back to my high school years of watching this show just to relive it all again :'D
Anyways!!! I hope there's still people out there who enjoy this show even ten years later who'll like seeing new funny artwork for it!
I wanna add too that i'm hoping to create a rewrite of FCBF (ft. seasons 1-3 + Ace) or at least create more artwork for my interpretation of it and its world!
Because, sincerely, this show is one of the few that, for all its flaws, hasn't disappointed me in the years that've followed unlike many other things i've seen and i wanna try to keep the spirit of it alive while I can thanks to that. And if there are any fans still in existence who love it, i wanna provide some food while its once again in my orbit because damn do i adore this show <3 <3 <#
#it's been like a year but im back on my buddyfight kick again#and since im back feeling dejected about OC things again i might try and focus on buddyfight stuff for a bit :Dc#fcbf#future card buddyfight#buddyfight#Deathgaze Death Dragon#Noboru Kodo#Tasuku Ryuenji#Gao Mikado#Drumbunker Dragon#Sawblade Dragon is a funny little critter I made as part of Tasuku's deck in my AU that im writing#and the other two monsters you can just barely see in the last image are Gallows/a Buddy I gifted Sofia#because tbh Sofia really needed a Buddy#specifically a Star Dragon World one#though as of this point in my AU she doesn't have her Star Dragon buddy bc it doesn't “Exist” yet ofc#middlemost image is also an old art thing but a headcanon thing for those mystery kids bc i like them despite not being a fan of-#Sofia/Tasuku all that much (tho had more effort gone into the writing behind them i probably would have liked them tbh lol)#I mean who doesn't like the idea of a guy who was at her side specifically and worked with her to achieve the bad guys goals#ends up watching his precious Buddy be attacked by her which is what snaps him out of his corrupted mental state to finally realize he's in#the wrong#& then when he later meets her as enemies he suffers cognitive dissonance of both loathing and respect towards her which culminates in him-#holding a personal vendetta towards her while also recognizing her efforts as a former ally who helped him during his Disaster days#and so when he gets to the future and has to rely on her help and guidance he has to confront the fact they're two sides of the same coin#& that she's neither an ally nor enemy but a mirror to himself of what he could've been if he'd decided to take action outside of the law#i mean#there was a LOOOOOOT of missed potential between Tasuku & Sofia if the show really wanted to go down the route of implying they end up a-#couple in canon (ESPECIALLY compared to Tasuku/Gao where it's clear Tasuku cares deeply about Gao and doesn't give a damn about Sofia)#and idk i felt we were robbed of a lot of things that could have given chemistry between Sofia and Tasuku

listen if we brat summer our way out of fascism I'll fuckin take it
#ravi rants#historically speaking the best way to shut down asshats that violate the social contract of tolerance is to mock them#idk man maybe I have a different perspective on all of this because I'm part of the desi diaspora#but like.... so Indians won't always obviously call out violations of social decorum#if you're making an idiot of yourself or you're making a scene. other people will stand by and let you do it.#my therapist and I talk about me coming from a high-context Asianic cultural background like I do a lot actually#because the thing about Indian decorum is that. like.#one. you protect yours. if your friend is actively intervening in on something there's a reason and it might be helpful#but two. if someone's breaking decorum.... we allow them to do so in order to figure out why.#if someone's ex is crashing a wedding and successfully gets the floor they'll get heard out#and everyone will be paying attention#because the thing is those kinds of overt violations of decorum usually happen for a reason....#Indian soap operas are A Lot™ but listen. a party might be the right time to call someone out on being abusive or manipulative#because the whistleblower can be escorted away to safety by them and theirs.#and usually you have to be able to know enough decorum to get to the point where you make a scene#and Indians respect the hustle. we'll hear you out.#the Hindu gods are notorious for being like 'alright smart guy. here's your wish.'#the gods will readily admit if they've been outwitted#but you're an idiot if you think you'll get away with fucking with the natural chaos of samsara and karma forever :)#however. there's also Hindu parables of asuras and dumbass humans realizing they fucked up and taking the L with grace#and the gods respect that#but lol. fascists aren't respectful.#Richard Spencer shut the fuck up after we all saw him get punched#conservatives are having a mental breakdown over being called weird while insisting that a cis woman is a man#and I'd like to remind everyone that the social role of a court jester is to keep everyone humble#bc dude. if you're getting butthurt over the clown ribbing you. maybe calm the fuck down? look in the mirror?#you may be a king but the larger the seat you hold#the better your toilet plumbing should be

Had a doctor tell me quite sincerely this morning that my "life seems miserable" because of my health problems and it immediately made me think of the damn bitch you live like this meme
#like i cant stop thinking about it#he wasnt even the doctor i was there to see#the nurse called him in because my heart rate was high and it scared her#but like thats just a normal flare day for me#so anyway this guy i dont even know comes barging into the room to listen to my heart and ask about my symptoms etc#and then he says that its not sustainable to live like this and how i must be miserable#and im just like lol okay like tell me something i dont know#oh and when i told him i usually get through flares by staying in bed for a day or two#his response was to say how that would make going on vacation hard because i might end up having to be bedridden for part of it#and like#first of all#im too broke for vacations lol#second of all#i can barely leave the house bc of my health so what vacations would i even be attempting#idk like he did seem genuinely concerned#but i was honestly not in the mood to hear all that#like i was (and still am) feeling extremely unwell#i just wanted to go home#did not need or want the pity of some random doctor

The evil slow creep of it being like "haha these will just be quick little side quests, not much effort at all!" and then noticing each one is getting progressively longer than the last, thus no longer being minimal effort.. auGh....
#The jump of 76 for the first one to 275 for the most recent ghghjb#what can I say.. I am.. The Elaborator.. The Detail Giver..#number six will HAVE to be shorter....!!!!!! !!!!#I fear it's going to look this way but opposite with some of the main character quests. The first character I ever worked on. like their#first quest I added wayy to much information and detail and side options and etc.#Once I got done with all their stuff I was like.... if they're all like this I will NEVER finish.. So then I tried to be very short about#it all. EVERY single interaction cannot have 10 branching dialogue and 5 different endings and blah blah blah.. as much as I wish it could.#Hiring a butler to stand over me all day shouting ''NARROW the scope!!!! REDUCE the options!!! CUT the dialogue!!!'' whilst I sob#and hit backspace on everything once every five minutes#But that means probably the first character I worked on will be very obvious because their quests might have a different#feel than the others and be longer.. I just CAN'T make ALL of them that long. but maybe I could choose one..#Like out of the four characters that will have full quests for them upon release.. maybe I can add another one thats long so at least#TWO of them have weirdly long quests and the one first character doesnt seem so singled out lol#I hear this happens in real life professional games as well (like people complaining that X character doesnt have as much#content in an RPG as some other one does. etc.) so.. perhaps my fears about everyting not being exactlyliterally equal#are not even that worrisome or something that's a major factor. Still lol#It's not really that concerning to me anyways from a 'how will people react to it' perspective (very niche game. hardly anyone#will play it i'd assume. its not like thousands of people shall desscend upon me to criticize even if something was weird like that.#it'd be like. out of the 25 people who ever play it. maybe one of them is like 'yeah it was kinda weird that thosequests were so much#longer than the others. but idk' and that's the extent lol). My concern is more like.. Writing time..#the more I add. the longer it takes for me to finish. So if I keep ednlessly making things forever longer and longer. then it becomes The#Forever Project. which it kind of already is. considering I started it in 2018 and then forgot about it for the most part of 5 years and am#only resuming it now LOL.. I cannot bear to add MORE forever onto that which already is quite Forever-ish#If I wrote everything the ideal way I wish it were then I would either need a full team of writers. or I would finish the game in 2085#so.. alas.. cut cut snip snip..#ANYWAY lol

btw after four years i finally finished all data from my iberian-inspired fakemon region. if you even care
#i might start ybraposting again soon who knows#i also have this crave to do pixel art and actually make maps and try to make this a game but i dunno how much this crave will last tbh#i made pixelart back in the day when i was in deviantart so. it's been a while#idk let's see what happens#anyways now that i have the final product#i can say. my fake region is ybra#where pokémon rose and carnation take place (very funny that they are named after the two last canon professors)#yes i know clavell isn't a professor but you know what i mean#i believe i started working on this during gen vii so. lol#anyways. we have ybra as the main region#BUT#there will be three dlcs after you complete the main story#yes three!!! honestly there were only two until i realized i left out a big part of iberia in my original plan for ybra for some reason#and these past days i've been making a region inspired by the kitakami dlc hehe#anyways onto the three dlcs. they are.#1) the glory of ossana. this takes you to ossana. based on southern france aka occitania aka whatever is between kalos and ybra#you have 5 gyms to beat here all thematic (for example there's one specialized on starters and the last one is specialized on legendaries)#of course being next to kalos there'll be references to it. the pokedex has pokemon both from ybra and kalos. and you'll get a new rival#for this region: serena - champion of kalos#also after beating the gym leaders you might get to battle a certain giant man that's 3000+ years old#2) the islands of the muses. this wouldn't make sense if you don't know the main story of the games. but basically throughout the game#you encounter these girls call the muses that protect the access to this dangerous evil pokemon#well. in this dlc you'll visit the homeland#based on the canary islands. each muse has an island associated to them (kinda. cause there's 7 islands)#there's also a mythical pokemon encountered in each territory of the muse and a mini storyline dedicated to it#also these islands are open world!!! and each island has its own pokedex#after beating all the muses and completing all their quests you'll be able to fight mnemosyne their mother and (spoiler) previous champion#3) (the new one!!!!) mysteries of lurmamua. you'll travel to this secluded land called lurmamua based on euskal herria when these mysteries#have been happening just as the region is preparing for an international film festival that is sure to attract tons of celebrities#from all over the world!!!

I love love love drawing but I cannot draw poses in any circumstances
#anyway the Saint Bernard pmv is still a thing#STILL FIGURING OUT EACH FRAME SO I AIN'T SHARING SHIT BUT#I'm just at the “to remind me that I am a fool” part#which sounds bad bc that's literally the second line BUT. I figured out where all the pictures and posters go#so there's that#I have to draw Tobias in the mirror now as he grows up and I'm. SUFFERING#and then I gotta decide if “tell me where I came from” is a birds view of the town or like. the highway with the sign that says “Welcome to#“how I will always be/just a spoiled little kid” would be like him standing at the bridge and turning into a kid#“who went to catholic school” is the corrupted club (no fucking idea how you call the building in English so. club.)#the beat of silence is a stone falling into the river#“when I am dead I won't join” showing characters at their funeral the“join” beat showing Thea and his brother's family#and then on “their ranks” it shows like. “ghosts” of Thea's family (Thea as a child. Thea's dead brother. and Thea's dad in cuffs)#“cause they're both” side by side Iván and Thea “holy” Thea “and free” Iván#“and I'm in Ohio” Tobías family. his aunt and father. his aunt is staring emptily and his dad looks annoyed/disgusted#“satanic” his father “and chained up” his aunt#“and until the end/that's how it'll be” I have no fucking idea lol#“I said make me love myself/So that I might love you/etcetc” Tobías and Iván stuff Idk#“Saint Calvin told me not to worry about you” Thea's (alive) brother talking to Tobías before he leaves town#“but he's got his own things to deal with” show's her brother's wife and child behind them in the doorway#“there's really just one thing that we have in common/neither of us will be missed” Tobias and thea blabla symbolism#the silent beat after that is two stones in the river#I have no fucking idea what to do at the end tho#modern prophets#CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT TO TAG THAT

ok so should i consider actually posting that edit i made?
as i said in the beginning making it was my very first time ever even touching any video editing software so i literally just downloaded the episodes with some firefox extension so the video quality isn’t 4K lol and what i’ve noticed is that the timing/audio is a bit off viewing it in the tumblr app vs in capcut where everything lines up and sounds how i want it
i personally don’t care about stuff like that and am only excited because i know why that is, but someone thinking to themselves that i don’t know x y or z is something we’re not gonna do at all lmao
#and also. it’s important to know what platform a piece of media was made for uknow. there is a right screen/platform/format/idfk for everyth#ing so fan vids and edits are obviously meant to be viewed on a small screen - phone tablet or pc#not fullscreen on anything lol#it’s still kinda cool finished hehehehe#BUT then i must also remember that i do not have a presence in the fandom. so it might not gain wind at all! especially if i’m not one to t#g things. but i guess i’d have to if i actually wanted people to see it lol#idk 🤷♀️ still a bit undecided. could post it like right now without saying a word - could keep it to myself 🤷♀️#it talks#iwtv#interview with the vampire#amc iwtv#this is not me building up hype btw lol - i think the vid has just like one or two oohworthy parts. i cannot stress enough how much of a re#alist i am about this. i’m not being like annoyingly humble either.

Bangin. but he prob woldve only gotten a mention and not an actual page#i dont think they woldve dug into .

wip wsunday (night)
tagged by @wispstalk (thank you kindly!) tagging back @ervona and @everybodyknows-everybodydies if you so please.
I put my long-ish tes piece on the backburner to take a break and write shorter things featuring my best friends elder scrolls characters from my mind and then I put THAT on the backburner because my very sweet grandmother paid for me to buy bg3 and. alas. look I can't play a game of this nature without fleshing out my player character far more than necessary and then I get curious. so here's a very shoddily scribbled bit from my very first playing-around piece (a rambling description of my character's extremely abandoned house)
#I'll make a blog for this game once I have more writing#and have played more of the game#I'm only just in act two so I feel like I should hold off trying to talk about it to the internet until I know more stuff that happens lol#but I'm already very attached to my still-forming character. they have problems like you would not believe#and I love to write a shitty little guy#got less than 6k words so far. across three bits of writing. and idk if I'd post any of them#they are mostly just exploring voice and tone#but I'm having fun with it! it's nice to try new things every once in a while#and this game provides ample fodder for weird messed up friendships (my favourite thing to write ever)#plus since romance is made to be such a big part of it#it might be the kick in the pants I need to actually attempt to get more comfortable writing romantic dynamics#which I do want to do. it's just hard and awkward when I don't feel it#ANYWAY#prob won't post anything much more about this game or character until I make the other sideblog#but. you know. huge news for people who are fans of bg3 and fay from tumblr#I'm sure there are millions of them#getting late now. goodnight!#ask game#wip#fay writes

Trying to remember the name of this animated TV show that my dad watched a lot when I was younger but can't find any trace of it with what I've been googling so far
#might try describing it here and see if anyone knows eventually but for right now just gonna try to figure out myself#im actually looking for two different shows lmao#one because i remember a very specific scene but cant find any trace of#idk if it was part of the same show that I'm looking for or not but i randomly remembered the show#while trying to figure out what show the scene came from and i cant remember it in the slightest#but im like pretty sure its two different shows#the specific scene may have come from Futurama tbh but not 100% sure#i just remember it was the culmination of a few episodes of build up#wish i could just like go into my brain and look through it like a list of stuff lol

I thought the october curse was gonna be skipped this year based on the fact I got a job on the first day but like. it turns out that was the bad luck disguising itself at good news and it's just another normal october
#i think a lot about how july 2020 was mediocre and july 2021 was one of the worst months of my life#and i made it known that i didn't trust july anymore. and it must've taken that as constructive criticism and my god it listened to me#bc then july 2022 was one of the best months of my life#and the two julys since have been pretty good as well#like that is so nice from july what a good friend#CANNOT say the same for october. like since 2014 every single one has been significantly terrible (except 2015 and maybe 2018)#2014 depressed. 2016 no friends depressed. 2017 giving nothing. 2019 dropped from what was a really good year#2020 like every mental illness known to man. 2021 All the horrors happening at once. 2022 the aromantic's worst nightmare#2023 was just awful#and then 2024's theme is having an absolutely miserable job after like 15 months of unemployment#i only get 3 days off and i can't even enjoy them bc i know what they're leading to#my shifts are too short to be allowed breaks but way too long for that to be comfortable#there've been times the day before a shift when i think about going and end up feeling nauseous and that's never even happened before lol#i get paid in like week apparently so i might try and wait until then but like#also the worst part is it's basically what i did when i was 17 (kitchen porter/assistant/whatever) so i keep comparing them#except there were parts of that job i enjoyed like the dishwasher and the cool shower looking tap and doing the plates and cutlery etc#and also the people i worked with. and the shifts weren't too bad. and i had a glorious hyperfixation#anyway this job is none of those things it's actually all the things i specifically disliked about the other one lol#i miss the dishwasher she was so cool. i miss the hyperfixation i had in 2017 (but when do i not)#but yeah i guess the only advantages of this job is I'll have money again and it's more motivation to look for another job#once again wishing i was 17 bc she wasn't happy and had no friends or aim in life but she listened to a lot of music so#idk why i always get addicted to 2017 nostalgia maybe bc it was such a mediocre year#like if i start wishing I was 13 or 15 or 19 or 22 I'm just gonna get depressed bc they were so good#but there's no reason for me to want to be 23 or 20 or 16 or 14 bc like. what is there to want about those#but 17 is so average it's like a low enough standard or something idk. anyway#ramble

i sent off my docs (sop, writing samples, etc) to my other potential letters of rec profs yesterday night so now i keep jumping every time my phone buzzes. it won't be the end of the world if they say no (i mostly just needed one (1) person to say yes and i've got a confirmed yes so we're set) but it will make me cringe if they say no after looking over my stuff lol. not a good sign.
#liveblogging life#grad app woes#i'm trying not to do any grad app stuff today to give my brain a rest but it's hard to pull myself back when i'm full throttle in a project#esp. when i don't have like. another project to fill the space#but i DID manage to blow some time yesterday planning my europe trip for next may so i can maybe hijack my focus to that#got all my necessary work stuff done already lmao so it's backburner projects today really#i think i want to ask my prof for the class i'm taking this fall & potentially a writing instructor from a workshop class#so honestly i don't really need either of these profs to say yes. i think?#it's rough bc i'm casting a wider net to ensure i have back-ups if people say no#but so far everyone's say yes. lol. what do i do with like six lors#v honestly if both of these profs confirm and i do get the other two recs to do it too. i might have them submit it to interfolio?#i'm using that for about half of my submissions#but idk if i'll actually submit those letters - i might just keep them on interfolio#that way if i get rejected this year i'll have options for letters if i apply again in the future#but then again maybe both of these profs will say no! and i'll have to hope the other two people i ask say yes!#requesting lors is part of why i took forever to think of applying to grad school tbh#that and my very shitty undergraduate experience & gpa#each of these grad school app posts is like a paragraph of text and three paragraphs of tags asfaklfjafkjal

fables from the field
[written for ffxivwrite2024]
Day 18: Hackneyed
Rating: E
Words: 1223
Pairing: Aymeric de Borel / Alyzen Kaide / Estinien Varlineau
“I am well aware you linger outside my window, cherie.”
Alyzen laughs, her head poking out from the corner of the window. Aymeric cannot but brighten at the sight of her; she is in good spirits, a rare thing of late. Any opportunity to see her smile is a one to be savored.
“Linger outside I must, my dear lord speaker, for I have not been granted permission to enter.”
Shaking his head, he strides across the plush carpet, cupping her beloved face between his bare hands and kissing the tip of her nose. Her cheeks flush pink; it is endearing to know that he can yet elicit such a reaction from her. Instead of urging her in, as she undoubtedly expects, he seats himself on the windowsill and smiles. “And what reason does the lady have to be invited into the lord speaker’s private chamber, pray tell?”
Her eyes twinkle, pleased that he has chosen to play. Aymeric does not think she fully understands just how much he would do for her. If she one day asked him to abandon his post, he would do so for her sake; yet he knows she will never make that request of him, even if she has resented his duties many a time, for she knows and understands how seriously he takes his duty to his country.
It is strange, to be perceived so intimately and be accepted so entirely. It is something he has yet to get used to. Theirs is an unconventional relationship, but one that works for them, and one that he gives thanks to Halone for each and every day.
“Why, my lord,” she teases, “there is naught I would not give to be granted leave to enter your sanctum.”
“Naught, you say? There is no limit to what I may demand of you?”
“You may ask anything of me,” her voice, her gaze, her expression, the line of her body all soften with affection. He has the urge to kiss her, and he does not even think to resist; should any passer-by look up, they would see their esteemed lord speaker seated on his windowsill, the warrior of light bent over him, framed by the soft golden glow of the light within the manor.
“What if,” he pulls away just enough to murmur the words against her lips, “I insist that you fetch our erstwhile dragoon so he may grace us with his presence?”
“Then I would consider your wish granted,” a new, familiar voice says from behind him.
Startled, Aymeric turns to his doorway to find Estinien leaning against the wall there, his arms crossed as is his wont, looking entirely at ease. Amusement has the corners of his lips curled upward, a warm fondness adorning his gaze, and his appearance is so unexpectedly gratifying that Aymeric’s heart fills and spills over with adoration for both his loves.
“Forgive me for such a hackneyed plan,” Alyzen laughs softly, “you merely asked me to pass on your regards, but I could not resist surprising you thus.”
Aymeric holds her hand, pressing his mouth to her knuckles before helping her cross the ledge. “What you call unoriginal, I call most welcome. It brings me much comfort to have the both of you with me.”
Estinien moves towards them, drawing the dark-haired man into a firm embrace. “Have the High Houses been treating you poorly?”
“‘Tis nothing beyond the norm, and certainly naught I cannot handle,” Aymeric burrows his face into the crook of Estinien’s neck. “‘Tis simply that every moment I spend with you is much cherished.”
“And what of me?” his fierce warrior looks anything but, not with how she’s pouting.
It is his turn to laugh, and he pulls her towards them. She comes willingly, indulgent and smiling, and lets herself be surrounded by them. For many minutes, they remain locked in a much-needed embrace; Aymeric has discovered that after all her trials on the First, Aly has developed a persistent need for contact and connection. She has not said anything, nor does she ask for affection when she requires it, but he and Estinien now know her well enough that for all her outward confidence, she is insecure of her status in their lives, of their need and want for her; he is only too happy to adore and cherish her the way she deserves.
Before he can shower his cherie with affection, Estinien finds his lips, and he devours his mouth like a man starved. Aymeric gladly lets him take, his hands gripping the wool of the dragoon’s tunic to pull him close, closer, as close as physically possible. Alyzen’s arms wrap around his midsection, her chest pressed to his back, and her hands slip beneath his shirt; he shivers when her chilled skin meets his, but it is short-lived, a new kind of heat stoked by her touch.
“Will you let us take care of you?” she asks softly.
“I do not need-” he tries to protest, only to be cut off by Estinien’s kiss.
“You are so generous with us,” Estinien’s voice rumbles through Aymeric, igniting the ever-present yearning within him, “let us do this for you.”
Alyzen’s fingers dip into the waistband of his breeches, stroking the skin there, but waiting for his permission to do anything. She must know he’s already aching, she must, and he wonders if this is a torment or a prelude to something sweeter. “‘Meric?” she prompts. He can feel her smile against his back as he tries to grind himself against Estinien’s leg.
He is so wound up – embarrassingly so, or he would be were he capable of thinking beyond his lovers at this moment. Aymeric meets Estinien’s gaze to find the other man watching him with blatant desire, but it is the heady affection emanating from him – from them both – that has him weak in the knees.
“Say yes, ‘Meric,” Estinien ghosts his mouth over his. “We want to touch you. Can you not feel how much we want you?”
Throat dry, Aymeric turns his head to look at Alyzen. Her gaze is aphotic, hypnotic, and his eyes drop to her mouth when her tongue darts out to wet her lips. Silently, he takes her hand and guides it down his belly, low, lower, till her palm is pressed firm against his hard length; Halone’s breath, but her gaze turns dark and wicked as she strokes him through the soft cloth. Whatever sound he makes is swallowed up by Estinien; he’s so distracted by his mouth that Aymeric barely registers Alyzen undressing him.
By the time Estinien finally lets go of him, Aymeric is naked, and entirely unashamed of it despite his paramours being still clothed. He lifts Alyzen into his arms, grinning at her squeal, walking her to his – to their – bed before unceremoniously dropping her atop the sheets. He watches her kick off her boots before encouraging her to lift her hips so he could slide her pants down.
Soon he is between his loves, bare skin pressed against bare skin, and it is bliss and contentment.
Then Alyzen shifts between his legs and takes his cock into the wet warmth of her mouth, and he knows, by the devilry in Estinien’s eyes, that he is going to be in for a long, long night.
