Soooo I'm still getting used to using a serger. I love it to pieces, best purchase, 1000/10 do recommend, it finishes seams so beautifully.

HOWEVER.

When I need to switch from serging to do, say, a cuff opening, where what would normally be in a seam, is opened up and finishes itself neatly, the transition between the two is not so pretty:

Raw edges, yuck. Don't like that.

I took some inspiration from @vinceaddams, in that I remembered he posted about a reinforcement at the vee of 18th century shirts, in particular the heart-shaped one seen in this post here: linky-link to the post

Look how cool this is!

So I hunted through my fabric stores to find something that would contrast nicely with my ace plaid fabric, and found some spacey fabric that worked.

Pinned and being basted into place:

Slip-stitched in place:

And finally what it looks like from the outside:

No more raw and fraying edge, doesn't show all that much when the sleeves are down, nice little peekaboo when my sleeves are rolled up; you can juuuuuuust barely see them in this pic:

Old solution to a modern problem. Thanks Vince! 🪡

Heyyy its 🥝 anon again!! Thought I'd give u a last of what I've manifested in the past few days.

-my skin has cleared up insanely. I used to have such visible blackheads and now they're so faint that I know they're already gone 💯

- I had fireworks going off while I was trying to sleep the other night. And normally they go off for aaaaages like 30 mins to an hour but as soon as they started going i was like 'nawr everyones gone back inside its so quiet, its too cold for fireworks theyve all gone to bed'. The noises faded and then popped back up for a couple more blasts but i persisted that it was quiet and they stopped after 4 minutes. Guess it was too cold and everyone went to bed!!!

- I'd been craving ice cream for a few days. I wasnt sure how but i knew I was going to get ice cream. I even visualised an uber eats delivery on my kitchen counter with my dessert in it. That night my younger sister suggests to my mum that we get milkshakes/ice cream.

-saw a subliminal about DP texting you fast. I dont have a desired person but I kinda entertained the thought of someone texting me. No one in particular. I don't really have any active texts atm. But then a friend who I hadnt spoken to in a month sent me a text not even two minutes later.

- my dad had been chilling on the sofa for ages and I was getting huuungry. Literally thought about my dad getting up to go get food, like visualised him standing up. Then TWO SECONDS LATER HE DOES. He gets up off the sofa and asks what i want for lunch.

-my fave one so far. I've wanted it to snow for a while and I'm aiming for a white christmas. I saw the weather reports yesterday and it was gonna rain this whole week. No sign of snow. (I had also manifested it raining lolol). I saw those reports and went "bro they dont know what theyre talking about its literally gonna snow". Woke up this morning to snow out the window and my sister messaging the family chat in confusion.

Actual messages:

Mum: Anyone have snow? @ oldersister , am guessing you do.

Older Sister: What the fuck

OS: Yes I do

OS: [pic of fully snowy rooftops]

OS: That’s so odd

OS: It wasn’t meant to snow here

😌😌😌✍️✍️✍️✍️

U already knowwwwww im the creator

🥝 baby I've missed you!!!!!! Not you inspired the song Let It Snow cmon!! I love all these successes and they are proof of how easy this truly is when we just remember who we are - the center of everything!!!! You better work creator!!!! No matter what method you use, it's always gonna work bc at the end of the day it's you!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for sharing my love.

Hi there. So I've been firm in my belief that Luke & Nicola are gonna announce their relationship by telling us that they are already MARRIED. I've been conversing with a friend on here and we both agree there's been clues/crumbs that just might support the theory. Some might think it's too soon, BUT I just think their relationship was never a normal dating/courtship. Them being TOGETHER is 4-5 years in the making. Anyway, sorry it's long, but here's our thoughts on possible clues that these two may have tied the knot:

Many of them come from secondary sources, but I found these nuggets too hard to ignore. So here it goes:

8/22 N shares Polin photo. My interpretation of this photo is that this is the pivotal scene where Colin reads her letters and starts to forgive her. Penelope professes her love for him later that day. I think this particular photo was to signal they had worked out their differences and were together. I most definitely could be wrong, but I took it as a positive sign.

(I think 8/22/since deleted) JVN shares TT song and dance to Oh Happy Day. Well that's suspicious...

8/28 N and JVN like Evan Ross Katz Insta post about Catherine O'Hara meeting her husband on set and being married for 32 years. Hmmm?

8/28 Bridgerton Netflix drops the cute Lukola-coded media video on Insta.

8/29-8/30 I saw maybe 3-4 random comments on a few Insta and TT posts mentioning Cabo. In fact, there was a comment on L's Spain post up until recently that said "do Cabo next." So weird and probably not true, but I couldn't stop thinking about Cabo.

8/30 JVN posts the song "They Went for the Gun" from the musical Chicago to TT. I kept thinking what an odd song choice when talking about your remote work team. If you're a musical fan, you know that this is the routine where Richard Gere performs the puppet dance number with Renee Zellweger. The song is about convincing the media to buy in to your narrative by turning them into your puppets. I thought this could be about the JD photo gate distraction or maybe L/N were getting married and they wanted us to think otherwise? Or, this could mean absolutely nothing, lol.

8/31 This is the morning we all saw the JD in the ocean/pool story. OMG everyone panic - he's in Malta with N! I wonder if JD was excited to be on vacation and accidentally posted the pic to Insta and that set off the whole day of possible distractions? Right after, JVN posts a we're home and here's a garden update story. (I almost always wonder if his garden updates are jokingly about L/N status.) Maybe it was previously recorded, and he used it to possibly provide cover for JD's slip-up?

I know my theory is off the rails, but I kind of like the possibility of it. Maybe L/N went to Cabo for a long weekend wedding around 8/30-9/1 with just a few close friends and family? You know JD and JVN would be there. I'm not one of those photo date, location and time truthers. It seems like that is never accurate. The previously mentioned JD photo looked like a pool to me, and it reminded me of this deep blue-colored one that is at the One & Only Palmilla in Cabo. This resort has been featured on many episodes of Real Housewives and N loves that show. I also thought the Insta story from N's work colleague in Malta would be really thoughtless and unprofessional if she was actually there at that exact time. I hope it was an intentional misdirect.

8-31 Days before Chupi has been teasing their new Future Awaits Diamond Arrow eternity band. They have posts pairing it with the Claddagh ring. They release it early on this date. It looks very similar to the one N is wearing in her Polin post from 6/11/21. Maybe it's her new wedding band and she's already married? Squee!

Anyway, this is crazy delusional but it was fun to think they might have been breadcrumbs. Maybe L/N got married quietly in Galway(because she'd definitely want her mother there and her Irish roots/traditons are important to her, and now L) Spain when no one was suspecting it. Regardless, I hope Netflix paid for the wedding if there was one. Thanks so much for letting me share. I hope we find out soon! The rings are still the biggest clues of all. 🥰💍👀

This is all speculation... but interesting theories...

I don't think they are already married, but what does everyone else think?

The rings definitely mean SOMETHING about L/N 👀

"C'mon, look at those tits!" said Megan. "Tell me you wouldn't turn back into a boy for the chance to play with those!"

"Oh yeah, absolutely!" replied Zoe.

Sophie stayed silent, still in shock at the direction the conversation had turned. When she had moved to the city, she had been so excited about the chance to meet more trans women. She was a bit surprised when her two new friends didn't care as much as her about being percieved exactly like a cis woman. They didn't hide some of their more male mannerisms and didn't always correct people who misgendered them. But after a few weeks of getting to know them, Sophie learnt to see the wisdom in this. It was stressful always worrying how others percieved you, and in truth she had realised that there were differences between trans women and cis women, and that was ok. Still, discussing which female celebrities and porn stars were hot enought to get you to detransition was, to Sophie, a step too far. How could they expect anyone to see them as women when...

"Soph? You still there?"

"Huh? Sorry, lost in thought. Did you ask me something?" she said, dreading that they might make her name some big-titted straight girl she'd willingly be the boyfriend of.

"C'mon Soph, a girl you'd detrans for? Don't tell me you haven't thought about it. Every tgirl does. It's ok."

Was that right? Was Sophie just being uptight? The truth is, when she saw a hot girl, she did have to suppress thoughts she thought were unfeminine. Were her friends just being open about a side of themselves that she kept hidden? Her knowledge of celebrities was terrible, but she tried picturing herself as the boyfriend of actresses from films she'd seen. She imagined the envy other men would feel for her. She felt a stirring inside her, and another under her skirt. Still, she couldn't remember any of these women's names. Her horny mind soon turned to girls she knew personally. She flitted through friends and colleagues, imagining herself with them as a normal straight couple, and when one caused a particular swelling down below, she couldn't help but cry out her name.

"Emily!". She Covered her mouth, shocked that she couldn't contain her fantasies.

"Emily Howell? From your work?" asked Zoe. "Yeah, I can totally see that! Fuck, her ass..."

"Dude, she's single. You should totally ask her! And she's always going on about how she loves tall guys! I'm pretty sure you have a chance!"

"Yeah, with how much she says that, I'm pretty sure she's dropping hints."

Sophie tried to think of a reason to disagree with her friends, but couldn't. The vision of her as Emily's boyfriend was a life she'd given up on, but a life that still called to her. She could have the kind of relationship she'd been taught to want as a small boy. She felt a desire to try and make this vsion a reality, stronger than the one that had driven her to dransition in the first place.

"Ok! I'll text her!"

"Woo! Go get her dude!"

"You gonna send her a dick pic? That way she'll know you've given up on the girl thing."

"No no, send her a video of you flushing your E down the toilet. Show her you're commited!"

Sophie's head swam with thoughts of what he was about to do, but he felt a hope for the future that he hadn't felt in a long time.

So I just learned the Nanbaka ending. Safe to say that it was not what i expected and I wanna talk about it :,)

Warning to the many people who have not been able to make it past chapter 192 or only watched the anime, the majority of what i know is from TikTok's, the comments of the vids and what i've pulled together by myself and what i've seen on Pinterest. Plus, despite my like for the series, I don't know much, its been a few years since I've done anything with the series , there is a cut off point with the manga and even then i don't know if it was in any particular order.

When i first started the series, I felt like i had a good idea of where the series was going. Like as the series would progress, we learn the pasts and motivations of the main cast, like Uno, Rock, Nico and the others, while seeing Jyugo learn about the shackles and the man on the scar. Then at the end, some shenanigans results in our main cast of idiotic prisoners being released early or finishing off their sentences in around a year or two. but because they either grew attached to the prison or liked the perks of working there (annoying Hajime, anime and food), they decide to go back and become guards of building 13. With Jyugo possibly doing something like this each day.

But that didn't happen. Instead we get something a lot more different than what I originally imagined.

In the end of the series, we learn a lot about Jyugo's backstory, how he and the boys first me and more about the man who shackled him. As it turns out, Jyugo was never friends with Uno, Rock and Nico. They met him but they weren't friends, I think. Initally, I didn't think that he even met them before the start of the series until finding some of the fan translated pics of the manga on Pinterest (Search Nanmaka manga ending Jyugo and you should find something, just find one and keep on scrolling). All the memories that Jyugo had with them were fake ones that were inputted by the clone of the man with the scar/his biological grandfather, i.e. this guy, Hiiro, I think is his name. Hiiro with black hair, scar guy with white guy down here 👇

I'm not entirely clear on what they were planning initially but Hiiro was the one who inputted the memories and orchestrated him going to Namba and becoming friends with the three, who possibly have at least met them individually at tone point. From what I am aware, Jyugo was the clone of Mashiro Mutsuki's (Scar man), grandson who alongside his daughter's, Touko, Jyugo's mother. She died while she was pregnant with Jyugo and Mashiro kept her body so that she could be cloned and give birth to Jyugo.

There were bit and pieces of Jyugo's childhood, with him and Hiiro. And Jyugo was nothing like how he was during the series. He was serious, had no general emotions and all that and i think his clone body was falling apart or he was sort of shapeshifting. He only became somewhat normal and acts similar to how he does to the series when he put the shackles on.

But the shackles had another function and it was to repress his memories and powers. Specifically his memories with Hiiro, the scar man and what his friends did to him. Uno, Nico and Rock were brought in to teach Jyugo how to live in order to be released from prison and gain their freedom. And kill him some time before the series started. This was part of Hiiro’s plan but I’m not too sure about his reasoning. They did that, and when the shackles are gone we see the evidence of it on Jyugo's neck.

All this makes looking back on previous adventures quite differently. In short they were never his friends for a time but did grow close in the time afterwards and began to feel guilt for what they did to him. They eventually come to talk to Jyugo about it and apologise but at this point, it was too late. Jyugo remembers everything when the shackles break and is practically reverted to his previous state. And it leads to a bitter confrontation that leaves the three shaken. As seen below 👇

I'm not sure to what degree of involvement Nanba Prison and the staff there had. By all accounts, its seems that Hajime and the other guards were just as or even more in the dark than Jyugo. Upon finding him, Hajime treats him like he's always has.

The only moderately positive thing and relatively Jyugo related thing that the reverted Jyugo does is that he has a brief interaction with Hajime’s cat who he says goodbye to.

In the end, Jyugo disappeared from the prison with a splatter of blood left behind, leaving apparently with his grandfather. Then that's it. A very WTF kind of ending for a comedic series. It...honestly not what i expected. Beautiful art stuff, yes. WTF moments, yes. Hilarity, yes. A very bitter ending with barely any sweetness in it…neat.

The Date Game: Olympic Sport or Minefield?

Dating, darling, is it an art or a game? And if it's a game, shouldn't it be an Olympic sport? Just picture it: all the guys I've dated, competing for the gold medal in... well, we'll get to that. But first, let's talk about the rules (or lack thereof).

Every game has rules, right? They make things more fun, more challenging, and help you understand the goal. But dating, my sweet summer children, has ZERO rules. It's like being dropped in the middle of the ocean with a blindfold and a paddleboard.

I have yet to receive a rulebook for the GAME, the game of love. (Is that even what we're playing?)

I don't know about you, but I don't think people go on dates to find love. In my experience, it's more about finding someone who isn't a total nutjob, a psycho, or a cheater (that last one is harder to spot than a fake Rolex).

Gay dating, in particular, is two guys trying to out-impress each other with the same, tired lies. During the date, everyone's Mr. Perfect: zero baggage, amazing exes, no drug problems, mental health? Aced it! Workaholic, but with a heart of gold. It all sounds too good to be true... and honey, it usually is.

Social media is partly to blame. We're all curating our "perfect" lives online, and some people are taking that facade offline. I've met guys who are living their Instagram fantasy IRL, and let me tell you, it's exhausting.

But that's not even the worst part. The thing that really gets me is that dating feels like a never-ending job interview. Think about it:

I apply for the job: Based on my carefully curated profile pics and witty bio.

I'm randomly selected for an interview: If my pics are cute enough and my bio doesn't sound like a serial killer's manifesto.

I go to the interview: AKA the date, where I put on my best performance and hope they don't notice I'm wearing Spanx.

Now, here's where it gets different: If I don't get the job, I'm still open to a little "consolation prize" (if you catch my drift). In the real world, you don't sleep with your HR manager after a failed interview. But in the dating game? Anything goes.

So yes, I downloaded Tinder, took some flattering selfies, and crafted a bio that would make Shakespeare jealous. And you know what? It's been... interesting. Expect a full report in my next post, including tales of awkward Grindr encounters, unexpected hookups, and maybe even a happy ending (or two).

Ps. We're in 2024—can we normalize sex on the first date (or soon after)? Why is this still taboo? Sex is important in any relationship, romantic or otherwise, and it's weird that we don't talk about it more openly. Let's be real, we need to talk about sex, learn about it, and teach it without shame or judgment. This starts with looking inward and seeing our lives (and desires) with fresh eyes. Sex isn't dirty or ugly; it's a natural form of energy and connection. I want to know if the person I'm dating matches my energy in all ways, including sexually. 

Stay tuned, my loves! And remember, always swipe right for yourself first.

Cheers,

Caesar

hi gen! hope this finds you well!!!! and hope i’m not late to the party… but i’ve been thinking about luca having a long distance relationship. and since most of the time chefs have cooking as an act of care, could you think of hc for luca in this situation?

@translatemunson thanks for sending this one in.

dating chef luca long distance: a headcanon

dating chef luca long distance would look like:

while luca works early most mornings, the two of you make sure to keep in touch. texts, voice memos, phone calls and facetimes when you can because he wants to connect with you as often as possible.

luca is always sending you tiktoks/instagram reels once he's off work -- things he thinks you might enjoy. you love to send pics back and forth: things you're doing, a great meal you had, a selfie when you have something funny to tell him or just when you miss him.

luca does not have read receipts and neither do you because truly, read receipts are unhinged and just make everyone involved anxious. (not me coming for read receipts, oops)

you try to physically see each other every 1 - 3 months, depending on where you're located, at least until your make it to your long distance end date. hear me out: i think that luca is going to move to you. "there will always be work for me as a chef, babe. and i want to be with you."

the week before a scheduled trip, it feels like time can't move any faster. you normally don't have too much trouble with distance, aside from missing him, but that week leading up to always feels agonous.

speaking of, leading up to a trip, luca busies himself with planning out menus, things he wants to make you, places he wants to take you, knowing that food is such a strong love language for the both of you.

the moment you reunite is always so sweet. in some ways, you don't mind the distance because it always feels so exciting when you see him for the first time after a few weeks to months apart. and can we talk about the reunion sex?! it is hot, hot, hot and it's the first thing the both of you want to do when you're reunited. (fully projecting here because i once had a long distance relationship and that ways always the first thing we did).

when you're not together... i don't think you and luca are big sexters... per say... but the man will indulge in phone sex when the mood strikes. just picture it. that deep voice over the phone telling you to touch yourself?! asking you how it feels? moaning with the phone on speaker while you tell him how much you need him?! how you can't wait to be together, jfc.

every day with him feels special, whether it be luca making you breakfast in bed or the two of you just doing nothing together, watching movies, cooking something together. he makes the most mundane of things feel like magic because the man has your heart.

somedays are harder than others, and you feel like you're missing out -- when his hair is longer, when he finds a new cafe that's become routine for him but is something you're only just finding out about -- and it makes your heart ache for the day that you get to live in the same city together.

long distance is hard, but you and luca make it as easy as possible by being kickass communicators and by meeting each other halfway. on the days it feels harder than others, you hold space for each other, recognizing that, while normally you feel good about it... you really fucking miss each other.

i know i wrote this in burn your life down but i stand by it: luca is a letter writer. perhaps after a particular tough day where you're missing the hell out of him, luca decides to surprise you by sending you some snail mail. you receive it a few days to a week later (depending on where you are in the world) and the care and love he poured into this surprise reminds you that it's all worth it.

this song and these lyrics make me think of dating luca long distance, so i will leave us on this note:

"so, can we strip down to our vitals? i'm obsessed with your design and I've missed your soul forever" -- superbloodmoon, holly humberstone & d4vid

Infdev to Modern, Post 1

So, this is something I’ve been meaning to do in some form since December or so of last year, and now it is finally happening! The concept is fairly straightforward in nature. I am going to play Minecraft (specifically Java Edition) from the earliest version that allows you to carry a world forward to the present day, and then do that! I intend to play from Java Edition Infdev 20100327 to whatever the current version of Minecraft is when I get there. (This concept is heavily, heavily derivative of bugmancx’s series Minecraft: The Journey. As such I highly recommend checking it out! It’s a nice watch! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmAF1bThqRw&list=PL0qwyBj5XSpZG35qFvy2Z9VbezZ1t4cGt )

So, Java Edition Infdev 20100327. After several versions of development to figure out infinite world generation, the game has finally metastasized back into a playable form. As of now, and it will be until quite a long time from now before this changes, the only game mode is survival. Despite being over a decade old, a large amount of the basic gameplay is already established. You chop down trees and mine minerals to create tools to allow you to mine and chop down more trees. 

The big additions and changes in this version of the game are as follows.

The level format has been changed from the indev level format to the alpha level format (This is what allows us to use this version as our starting point!).

The title screen and menu have been changed.

Testing and debug items from previous builds of infdev have been removed from the player’s starting inventory.

With the preamble sorted, let’s get to playing Minecraft!

Upon spawning in, I am greeted by two things. A quaint little valley, and some pretty nasty lighting errors!

The other end of the valley, featuring more lighting errors.

Well, those lighting errors will solve themselves at some point, so I decided not to worry about it, and get to working on more immediate concerns.

I get to work chopping down a tree, and then I remember to do something that I always need to get taken care of while playing older versions of the game

In the older versions of Minecraft, the inventory key is mapped to I. This makes some sense, but in the modern game, this is mapped to E, which is much more ergonomic.

As something worth noting, you’ll notice that in the above photo my skin hasn’t shown up, and the default is visible. I’m unsure of the exact cause of this particular issue, but it will be fixed by the end of infdev. While we’re here though…

A silly pic of the old walk cycle where the player character would flail their arms around wildly. Anyway, back to the game.

I scaled the sides of the valley, and chopped down a few more trees, eager to ensure I have enough wood to obtain the torches and tools I’ll need for my upcoming projects. I crafted the bare minimum of wooden tools, and then got to work on mining the coal out of the mountainside.

Eventually; however, night began to fall, so I dug myself into an alcove and started working on a shelter for myself.

You may notice I blocked myself off with a single block of dirt here. This isn’t just because dirt is more practical than a door at this state in the playthrough - doors hadn’t been added to the game yet! Once I was sure I’d securely sealed myself away, it got straight to my favorite activity: digging long stone hallways! Other than this, it was an uneventful night.

I haven’t noticed any monsters spawning, despite the game being on normal, so I think I'm going to update to the next version and see if that fixes that particular issue.

See y’all later!

-Ciel

impalationship replied to your post "| NTAs red carpet 2021 vs. Pride of Britain red…”

I've been in a fandom for quite some time now where there used to be a fan who was a professional body language expert. They taught us a lot about what to look for in photos like this and I have to say it's clear as day that M and AL can barely tolerate being near each other while M and D are exhibiting signs of strong physical and emotional closeness and attraction. Who knows what goes on in their lives behind closed doors but this is what we can see from all of these pics and videos.

rainbowposes replied to your post "New red carpet pics and ugh what is wrong with..."

Anna especially looks so uncomfortable. As a couple they never look quite right. The age difference for one looks too pronounced. Michael looks like her father! I know they have two daughters but I still really can't see them going the distance. Anna's dress is gorgeous, though, and she looks stunning. Their vibes are just so off though. I can only really say that here. In most SM places you get slaughtered for any Anna negativity. Same with Georgia!😳

@impalationship Oh, wow. That is very interesting, and I appreciate you sharing those observations about Michael and AL vs. Michael and David. I think many of us have wondered what a body language professional would have to say about their body language, and so I am wondering if this expert has ever shared anything about "tells" (i.e., small gestures or signs that give away what a person is truly feeling). If so, would you be able to share those/what sort of "tells" you think Michael and David are giving off? I know deciphering subtle body language cues has never been my forte, so your insights are certainly fascinating.

To your comment, @rainbowposes, I agree with you about the vibes between Michael and AL being off. I've said this previously, but for me it's never been about the age gap (although I find that the legitimitiate criticisms many of us have are decried and often chalked up solely to that). It's the "everything else" gap that is so noticeable, IMO. It's that Michael and AL have nothing in common except for the kids. It's that neither one of them "lights up" around the other, and that the normally ever-present twinkle in Michael's eye disappears when he is with her. I'm genuinely at a loss for how Anna in particular seems so uncomfortable holding her own boyfriend's hand and looks like she would rather be anywhere and doing anything else instead. I'm also floored at the disconnect happening with the fans on Twitter saying how happy they both look, as at this point it seems like willfully ignoring everything that is actually happening in those pictures.

I'm glad you felt comfortable sharing your thoughts here, though. Going by the sheer volume of comments on both of these posts, a lot of other people feel similarly. Truthfully, I've never seen this many comments of people speaking honestly about what they are seeing in the last four years. I'm not sure what exactly has caused the change, except that what's plainly obvious apparently can no longer be overlooked. So interesting...

howdy hi what’s the pretty boy update? i’m too impatient to wait for everything to pop up on my tl and too caught in the throes of pmdd to scroll through ur blog <3

HIIII lemme think of the important points to catch you up on. Idk what posts you have seen so im only explicitly excluding what has been said in DMs already but uhhh

- We are officially going to the concert together! There's two maybe-maybe-nots joining us but he and I are definitely going and we're working at getting the airbnb booked. I sent him a list earlier today with v detailed notes and I'm waiting on him to get back to me on which, if any, he thinks we should go for. We now text frequently. My mother gave me the standard Murder Family lecture of "don't end up dead and strangled in a ditch" but she is loaning me any money I might need to pay for the trip. This is also relevant because he responded to news of this lecture by proclaiming himself my bodyguard.

- He casually called me a good girl one (1) time and then proceeded to make fun of me for the rest of the shift bc my reaction involved slowly lowering myself to the floor and the reply of ˢᵒʳʳʸ ʷʰᵃᵗ. In an effort to appear normal, I will not tell you the number, but I COULD tell you the exact number of times that he has weaponized this phrase as a form of psychic warfare against me.

- I now have three entire Instagram posts. We now follow each other. He liked the "tattoo picture" (read: thigh pic) I posted in specific hopes that he would see it.

- he has developed the habit of leaning over and taking bites out of my sandwich at work. He will do this with absolutely no regard for who is watching. Yesterday he did so multiple times in front of my work friend. I cannot describe the look she gave me, only that I could imagine her saying "yes bitch get your man" to me were he not still actively eating my sandwich out of my hand.

- he has referred to us as a couple (in the context of telling someone we were just having a couple's argument) and openly called me sweetheart and babe several times in front of our coworkers. I am almost certain that one in particular is convinced we are actually dating, but she hasn't openly said anything beyond saying we have "great chemistry" so I am unable to set the record straight. I do not mind if she continues to think we are dating, so long as she doesn't say anything to the manager that might result in us not working together.

- I slept wrong on my neck and he gave me an unprompted shoulder rub. This was an Incident. No I will not elaborate, except to say i have an unfinished oneshot from months before I even met him where the same thing happened and turned out VERY differently. He did not comment. He also did not appear uncomfortable. There are more details but I live in too much shame to divulge them at this time.

- the babygirl incident (for genuinely legitimate work reasons I was on my knees) (for genuinely legitimate work reasons he was standing right in front of me) (I apologized for being in his space even though he entered mine. While I was on my knees.) (He said "no problem babygirl" in a flirtatious tone) (i was on my knees) (in front of him) (I blacked out a little bit) (1 dead 0 injured) (it's me I died)

- I vacillate between "there is absolutely no way I am the only one interested here" and a crushing insecurity that he's just fucking with me but I think that's more to do with the fact that it is March and March is the month in which my entire being tries to convince me that I will never be loved or wanted. Fuck March. I think he might be slightly interested.

- I have not asked him on a date because we are about to book accommodations for the concert and I would prefer for that entire thing not to be awkward in case I have somehow totally misread the Everything

2/5-6-7/25

wednesday - thursday - friday

i know what it looks like...

but no i didn't stay up all of those days. really what i did was something so dumb but it seems to have worked so like... wowww!!!! and i am so glad it worked. this thursday - friday has been an excessively lovely period of time. like beautiful my goodness. so... where to start... well wednesday, i did the stupid thing and slept through that whole day, sleep is a loose word, i did a lot of laying with my eyes closed, but in and out of visions of kinds, i did have a dream but didn't write it down, a kind of concert, in a barn, but outside the barn, an infinite dark expanse beyond some edges of grass and those kind of fences, the cute shaped fences of farms, the kind that have two long things through posts. long and non-uniform thick branches, without bark. there were 2 shibito like figures, i shot at one, it was headless, it couldn't die. the man singing in the concert, a vkei-ish guy, was actually a demon. and then... a mansion up in the north of nevada, very 2005, if that makes any sense. i remember it being christmas morning but most vivid is the crystal of the chandelier, it caught light in a strange way, not abnormal, it was just highlighted.

so i woke up at 6 am, and kind of did normal stuff. i struggled with a song but i think i got it to sound good. i'll listen later, i am really happy with it though, based on how i felt when i was like, that's it, i was like, i did it!!! but who knows if i really did it. i'm kind of dumb. and i'm super overstimulated... in a good way though. just kind of like, wee woo wee woo wee woo, like goreshit's music, frankly. i also had too much caffeine today... okay.., let's start with... selfies??? and then pics, stuff i saw, and then the whole night... as best as i can put it:

(slight outfit change after this)

i didn't drink all of the monster but i had most of it... i also had a glass of coffee and a cappuccino, which wasn't as strong as i thought it'd be. normally caffeine makes me feel like a terrible dying insect trapped in an infinite labyrinth of cybernetics, but i guess that was the right feeling for tonight, there was no terrible anxiety, just a super exciting flow.

so first we started in my gf's mom's car, her brother's gf in there too w/ her mom being driven somewhere too... there were some antics... we told the gf about kanye's new clothes and her brother loves him so much so she decided to instantly buy them for him... we didn't imagine that would happen when we said 'kanye's new nazi clothes' but that is the world we are in. her mom talked about trump banning trans athletes now and that insane image of all the little children surrounding him. i don't want to get too down into something so miserable but, of a lot of things, that image in particular, that video i guess, feels so much like the pageantry of fascism, at this point.

after the car ride where we all thought about the coming wave of fascism, or, not coming, i guess we are awash in it. i need to finish that book... by this guy... about fascism and how to analyze its reappearance what makes it separate from what occurred in the past, to better handle/think on it. anyhow, after the car ride, we went to a cafe, i got the cappuccino there and also mochi butter. i explained a bunch of this ziz stuff to my gf. she asked me 'is it true if you're a radical vegan you can't have friends' and we all know the answer is 'no' but it's like insane, to see people say that. we talked a long time about what those people think. but the show was at 9!!! and gasp!!! it was only 5 or 4 then? so we had to walk to get me food, at this chicken place, with really good fried chicken, and then walk to get her food, at this vegetarian taco place. we talked about a lot of the same stuff. i said something about infohazards to her, that remains interesting, that these people have total faith in them + think you need to be exposed to them to prove to you that if you are out of line with it then you need to get into line with it and thus be good and prove that you are true good or whatever. which is a strange and rather religious way of thinking of things. i am reticent to say it's a proper cult still, but i think that's maybe primarily for reasons that are outside of the context of the situation itself, as in, i worry about giving ground to a culture that desperately wants a new jonestown or... a better parallel might be the mansons, right? ai alignment obsessed radical anarchist vegan mansons. the veganism and the ai alight very tightly in fact, they inform one another here. anyway, this is all getting beyond me... after the food, we walked... oh, today was so chilly and windy but i didn't get mad at the wind really. my short bangs make the wind rather manageable. but it made it very cold, we went to buffalo exchange. there was nothing particularly good there, except a silver jacket my gf wanted, she had to resist it. the only reason she didn't get it was because of the show.

we were only there for maybe 20 minutes, after that we walked to a bar where we spent the rest of our time until the show, it was a funny place, it had all this banksy-ish graffiti on exposed concrete walls, some rugs on the ground, playing french music, the way to the bathrooms had these chainlink fences on the interior. it's called la petite boheme. it's a silly place and basically ugly but the people who work there are nice. my gf liked a drink she got there before but this time she chose poorly. we kind of flirted in there a while, is all i can say about that... here are some photos i took in there:

i found that 'the who' poster rather funny. and i don't know. i like using flash on water... sue me...

after that, is when i got my white monster. when i posted the white monster in a server a bunch of people started talking about good flavors of monster but that only really matters if you're using it like a soft drink... it's strictly about the effect for me, and white monster is only 10 cals + inoffensive, so it wins. if it were good i would be like, i want more. it's an ideal place for it to be. speaking of calories... because of my long sleep, i didn't eat for over 24 hours and i know that's bad.... but honestly i did look at myself in the mirror and felt kind of good about myself... evil of me...

anyhow in the smokeshop i got the monster, there were these guys:

they were really cute. i like them a lot. friendly creatures. my gf hates birds but she didn't hate them so much it seemed like. i hope those little guys are okay in that bright ass smoke shop. oh, in the bar, i saw an image of like a chameleon biting someone. it looked insane. it seems like a joke image now. but i hope it's not. it had insane looking teeth? was i taken for a ride??? maybe,,,

and then i drank most of the monster and my gf had some and then it was time to go up, for the show.

we got in during soundcheck, it was rather chill. the first person to play tonight was dj 54kura (sakura). they were pretty cool!! they made music using i think 2 dreamcasts maybe? i don't know how that works but i saw them switching the vmus out, and i liked that they opened us up w/ breaks that didn't have so much gabber-y stuff going on, having the rest of the night to reflect on that, at the time i was like, i want harder, i want faster, but thinking back on what they were doing i think there's a lot of really fun stuff going on there with the loops and the drums reminded me of this at times, somehow:

the clickyness of them, really focusing in on the transients of the breaks, it was really satisfying in that way, so more art-y in a way, that i think is a needed contrast to the rest of the night, and an especially good way to begin. also, as they played, i saw they were wearing a blood brother shirt. after they ended their set and a local dj started setting up, they were by the bar and i saw them walking past me i said, your set was cool i love your shirt, and they seemed so happy anyone noticed the shirt and said, i love them they're like the reason i make screamo music, and i was like, oh that's so cool!!! and then they went to go get a drink and then i went over and was like, what band are you in?? and they were like, oh i'm in this band called terrifying girls' highschool, and i was like oh wtf, i know them!!!

and then i said i make shitty daw screamo (basically) and they were like, i love that!! they told me they run this label called emocat, or co-run it, and i should submit something maybe. so maybe i will. who knows if i'll even be remembered or anything like that... it's just really nice meeting people i'm so glad i jumped out of my shell to talk to someone about a band we both like. i'm normally too afraid. but the people around goreshit seem really cool. that was another thing i was like oh wtf i thought you were local, but that band's kind of a thing in some circles and if they were from here i'd def know, but they came from vancouver to support goreshit. i don't know. i guess i feel lucky to encounter people from outside this little nightmare-place and for them to be really nice... something i thought about tonight a lot was how nice people can be...

the second set was better than i thought, datnamedoh is good and he selected good tracks and kept the energy really high, he did some corny stuff i didn't like so much, some scatological meme-y stuff that i don't think this stuff needs (goreshit gets the pass because he's so much more playful and unmoored from the general memes of rn + is a bit more dangerous with it i think), but beyond that, good songs, good sound, there were times he let it get super nonsense-y and leaned into that this stuff is free to go noise. and i think that made me respect him a lot more. there's times he's been kind of an ass to my friend's gf. but tonight he was pretty nice. maybe he was just going through something then that made him be like sort of an ass, in a way everyone noticed. but he seemed to really enjoy himself, up there tonight, and he helped me get more into the idea of dancing a little more.

the third guy was jinxdb, who is generally okay but comes off as a bit of an asshole for sure. out of a lot of the djs in the scene, he feels a bit like a social climber who makes his mixes 'eclectic' in an effort to dream about what it'll be like when he can do a boiler room set. but he did a lot of straight hardcore, and that was appreciated. at one point dropped in some metalcore which was silly but okay, it's funny people use that for halftime drops now. that's one thing that no one but he seemed to do, those trap-y halftime slowdowns. he also did this gabber peanut butter jelly time remix and that took some wind out of my sails, but he also put some wind in my sails too...

after that was:

he was awesome, we ended up right up front, i danced so much i felt like puking. i got hit on twice during his set... the first is a maybe, she just walked up to me and said i was really hot and my hair is cute and made me do this heart symbol thing with her. i think that is maybe just a compliment, but this other person, they walked up to me and were like, what's on your shirt, i said, dead dead demon's dedededededestruction (or however many it is (or i made it however many it had to be then)), and they said, huh? and (repeat) and they said, oh, what's that, and i said, a really good manga. they said, is there an adaptation i said, the adaptation isn't good at all, they said, well that's okay, have you seen land of the lustrous, and i said, what's that, they said, it's like steven universe and it's like 3d anime after those awful berserk movies, so they knew how to make it good, and i said, oh wait it's the gem people anime right? i've seen, or, seen it around, yeah, they said, yeah, uh, you're really cute, i have been looking at you from time to time, and i have worked up the courage to say that you are cute, and i said, thank you!! and then they walked away, and then told my gf what happened, she got a little handsy then to prove i am already owned. oh, and both of these people said my bangs are really cute. i kept dancing, i had to oscillate a lot, in intensity. our friends, my friend who i recorded with, he was there tonight, along with his gf, when they showed up i said, send me the thing we did, and we should do that more and he said he's down. so he's down for that. he showed up around jinx's set, along with another friend, and also everyone who recognized us came over and said hello and that was like a lot of people in the room and that felt warm and nice to have a little cluster of people i know well to just okay but it was all nice. it was fun dancing around all the people, it's been a long time since i've felt that. the music, i think, more than most other nights, even from local people, they knew they could push it so they did, and when the music starts pushing at you it seems to get a lot better and make you want to do things, when it's inhumanly fast it drags you into its pace, it makes you joyfully move in a way that is strange and violent, at least it makes me do that... i kept thinking about this when i danced, i realized i sort of do this with my fingers, little pointing fingers like the guns here:

this and ian curtis dancing and my weird and wrong interpretation of moving my feet to footwork that my friend and i worked out a long time ago, a wrong way of moving, or wrong in that context, but right to our bodies i guess, a specific way we came to feel the music. i thought about all the people doing hardcore dancing, the way we used to when we were teenagers, and how we seemed like the only people in the city (and i know this is wrong, there were people our age hearing the same stuff and dancing in their rooms here too, and there were people trying to get stuff together, and there were people younger than us too wishing it were possible to go somewhere and move that way, it's just that now there finally is a tiny scene for it), but it really felt like it was so few people, and it was kind of lonely and we were trying to make the case for the music but we had no real road out of just our immediate friends, so we just threw parties for them. not even that many, just a couple, still, that was our attempt.

but feeling oddly out of time, i kept thinking, before halfway thru jinx's set probably, i can't go hard like i used to, but surely i found myself there again tonight, dancing so hard i felt like hurling, a pain all over my body, moving in step with kicks well over 200 bpm in places, trying to keep up as long as possible, a kind of dangerous feeling, a total sacrifice and burning thing, lovely lovely lovely, and sweating and a mess.

it's hard to articulate the extremity of it, just being there in my body as a positive thing, being a messy cute thing with my gf and friends, i didn't even say, she's loved goreshit since she's been 10, so this is like, huge for her to see, and she like didn't even say hi to him, she just admired him, somehow she noticed something crazy and sad, she said, his arms, that's how you can tell he's a real one, and i said, huh, and she said, all his cutting scars. after his set ended jinx did like 30 more minutes, i spent most of that time in the bathroom. even sweaty these bangs kind of held up well enough, that's a plus with these, too. and then that ended, club started closing, i sat apart from everyone just kind of decompressing, and a guy walked up, and he was basically very nice, he talked to me about my shoes and how crazy it is that my gf and i have the same sized feet, that he moved to vegas in 2009, that he was homeless in detroit, he said about all that:

i showed up here because i was homeless in detroit. i flew out and my dad picked me up and made me go to a job interview right away. but i should have asked for more money. he told me to say a low number and i said it. i did the same thing in a relationship. she said we can be friends with benefits and i said great, great, but then she said, or it can be more, and i was like, i shouldn't have said yes. you know.

so it was obvious he was the third person tonight experiencing some kind of interest in me. something really funny he brought up is that he knew the guys in wolf eyes and attended a bunch of their side projects over the years, hundreds of times, but only managed to see them together as wolf eyes like 5 times. he also told me about an ill conceived black dice-following act where he and his friends would do noisy improv on modular synths and cut it up and arrange it, but they'd all get so high and get lost doing cable management that the jam would be a little weird feeling, and then he'd never get to cutting it up.

lots of people in this world, i really think i like a lot of them, or in an abstract way. but i feel warmth for people right now. when my friend met goreshit, goreshit really had a whole conversation with him about music, steve albini got brought up, they talked about melt banana, really sweet guy who took time to talk to everyone and really appreciated all of it and had real conversations w/ the people who came out. idk, that moves me a lot. it'd be fine if he just left you know, but he was really like, idk, sweet... he's a sweet person...

just listening to this now... the sample is super funny. i love music... i love dancing until it hurts, i love dancing becuz it hurts... i always close my eyes and move around, that seems bad, maybe, but i love experiencing the intensity as closely as possible... now i need to sleep though, i'm gonna be so sore, but that's okay. it's fun to be sore for things you love. i love my friends. oh, i made a new friend today, he is rather nice, idk if i'll see him so much but i told him to look into airwindows plugins for making music, or mastering especially. he's very enthusiastic about music. i hope to see what he makes, soon. hopefully he like dms me on insta i guess, or talks to my friend, also.

long and good day... it's crazy how full life can be, at times!!! this isn't even the last concert of this week, wowwowowowwow!!

so,

byebye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay. So, this doesn't direct to any of the ROs or Characters, but let's say this is total another world au. Things still happen, storyline still go on, but there's a friend, who exists as a friend, a normal friend for MC. They don't really hang out much, and they're roommates, human (presume the dorm is two person in a room) And is always in their room. They don't really know MC, and MC don't really know them, but they'd text each other good morning & night, sent pics of their food to each other, sometimes buy presents for each other (you can say it's like a routine of roommate something). And none of the family or ROs really know them, just as the roommate's friends. And one day— MC and the roommate hangout once in a while (presumably once in a month whenever MC has time, and said roommate is sure, okay), said roommate post and tag MC (which is a rare opportunity cos said roommate don't like posting themselves due to past event but willing to post because they see and trust MC as a friend) which MC didn't realise until the other inform them and MC just drop their things to find their roommate and give a big hug while roommate is like patting MC "yeah, yeah, I know. Believe me I'm shocked too when I posted"... How would the family react to this sudden new person they don't know but clearly understand that MC cherish this particular person? (sorry, this is so long lol)

I’m not really certain if I understood the prompt, but the MC has a close friend and the family finds out about them?

They’d think it’s neat, but wouldn’t really have a strong reaction to it as they have close friends too that the MC probably doesn’t know about/hasn’t met. They’re happy you’re close with someone, but it wouldn’t be a super strong reaction… Just a “that’s neat” kind of thing.

Basic Gen 1 pet hexing Tutorial - Dogz

Hello! I thought it might be fun to do a basic hexing tutorial for tumblr. I'm sure there are others out there but, there's always the need for a refresher corse and a new post won't hurt.

This tutuorial is far from the most advanced and I do my best to assume no hexing experiance. There are many more tutorials on Whisker Wick and RKC. At the time of this tutorial they are the central hubs for the online petz community and are always filled with people who can help answer questions too.

First is the tools needed to hex for the Petz games(note I will be hexing in Petz 4 but the ideas are transferable to at least Petz 5 and I believe Petz 3).

NOTE all the tools I list are FREE to get from the sites I link to.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

You can in theory use any hex editor, but if you're like me and they intimidate you a bit I highly recomend getting LNZ pro from Sherlock Software. It is the program most of the community uses too so if there are problems it is easy to find help. If you happen to be in the babyz community as well this program works for them as well. You will also need the petz editing manual. Through the tutorial I will refer to this as LNZ.

Also from Sherlock Software I highly recomend Petz Workshop, I will be useing it in the tutorial and it's great if you're more of a visual person. It has some limits but overall works nicely. Through the tutorial I will refer to this program as PW.

While on Sherlock Software, if you don't have it already I suggest getting Petz A for enhanced game play, and petz pic factory is a life savor to help organizations. Tinker is if you want to get into toy/clothing hexing.

The other program I cannot recomend enough is Brynn's anchor utility. It can be found on Flea Bagz along with the auto spotter.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

NOTE! This method of hexing, hexing on the breedfile itself, causes hexed liniage if you breed them. This can be useful and even fun, but is something to keep in mind.

It changes the base coding of the dog/cat and alters there genetics a bit so they can have offspring with colors that would not normally occure.

For exampe great dane masks should only come in brown and black -

(Special appearacne by Coke and Townie, two of our Danes)

However, with hexed linage they can come in other colors such as orange, red, blue, tan, cream, white,

(Denzel, Pitch, Twice, Tallis, Siddie, Sim)

This is only for ball areas not paintballz. Paintballz do not mutate colors unless there's extra hexing in so those are not affected.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

ALSO NOTE! BACK UP YOUR FILES! ANY FILE YOU OPEN WITH THE INTENT OF HEXING! BACK IT UP! I keep a zip file of all my OBs stashed away in a dark corner as well as one with the fixed files I use. Things can go wrong. You don't want to loose a file and not be able to get it back.

Also do frequent saves while working. These are older programs. Things crash with no reason.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= We've got the programs now to select what to hex.

A golden retreiver.

There are minor differences between different breed files but for the most part they are the same. The bigg thing to think about is the pug nose - and it's none existance, the chihuahua(and I belive papillon too) have different nose numbers than the other dog breeds because they have a single ball instead of the 2.

DOG NOSES(not cat noses, catz can be done like any other ball)

The first thing I'm going to do is change the golden's nose color. There are two ways to do this:

The first is done completely in PW(you can use LNZ too but as I said, I prefer visuals when I can so I only do it in PW on the rare times I use this method). I rarely use this method, I've spent years hexing for the petz kennel club and this particular method violtates the rules about changing a file.

In PW, once the file you need is open(in this case the Golden Retriver.dog) you'll see some buttons across the top with circles on them. the second from the end has a circle with half the line thicker than the other.

Click it.

Down in the bottom above the text box that tells you you've opened the file and all that are two other boxes. The top one says "outline style:" and is a drop down,

Yep click it.

You'll get a selection of No outlines, both sides(this is the one it auto selects), left side only, right side only, and draw as a nose(this is what the dog nose is already!). When I do this method I do "no outline" but feel free to play with the others and the thickness of the lines. I know some people have done some awesome things with them.

Once your line is selcted thengo up to the modle of the dog and click on their nose!

And the nose is gone! Now back to your top menu!

The second button, the one that has a gradiant from red to blue/purple?

Click it.

Your bottum menue has changed again, click on the "color to paint" square

A color picker popup will appear! please note that the last few rows(especially the last two) are very unreliable for being the color that shows up in the game(And that from one persons computer to anothers they're known to just not match.).

Once you've picked your color click on the two nostril ballz that we clicked for the outlines thing as well as the third little black ball beneath them. Note that some colors do not let textures work despite what PW may show.

And that's it, that's method 1 for dogz nose color changing.

You can add the nose shine with paintballz(we will cover paintballz in general later).

Method 2 is in LNZ pro. This is the method I prefer useing.

Once you have the file open down the side of the inner window is a list of smaller menus. You want the one that sayz "LNZ"

Depending on your breed, the letterz on the inner menu from LNZ may be different. You want to open which ever one does not say "PUP"

There are sections labled with brackets you will want to scroll or use the "tools" menu and the "find feature" until you get to [Paint Ballz]

Depending on your file there may or may not be more than the paw pads. Note the lines following the semi collons. These lines are ignored by the program! It's a great way to make notes. Also note that the three lines after ";jowl color" all have an extra number at the end, that "0" anchors the paint ballz. A general rule(rules are made to be broken so you do you!) paw pads are the only ballz that are not anchored. Another note, the texture(last number in a row before the anchoring "0") in the paw pads is "-1" this means that there is no texture there, this will apply to any ball or paint ball you want to have no texture!

Now adding paintballz to the nostril ballz to cover up the "draw as a nose" line. You'll other than the first two paint ballz(which are the nose shine, which you can 100% use on the previous method) they're massive(200% the diameter of the ball) this is simply to cover as much area as possible. They're also anchored but have a -1 texture. The 5th number in each row is the color, you can change it to whatever number you want(remember the pop up window from PW? SAME numbers!) If you would like the code to save for quick coppy paste -

;nose 41, 40, 0, 0, -1, 15, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1 0 17, 40, 0, 0, -1, 15, -1, -1, -1, -1, -1 0 41, 200, -0.05094715, 0.1532611, -0.9868715,183, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 41, 200, -0.994278, 0.09509034, 0.0486745,183, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 41, 200, -0.02459138, 0.1358954, 0.990418,183, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 41, 200, 0.9602911, 0.09167686, 0.2635078,183, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 41, 200, 0.01550517, -0.988771, 0.1486324,183, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 41, 200, 0.01009679, 0.993927, 0.109577,183, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 17, 200, -0.01085464, 0.1983058, -0.9800801,59, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 17, 200, 0.98462, 0.1341251, 0.1119551,59, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 17, 200, -0.08383274, 0.1538555, 0.9845306,59, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 17, 200, -0.9783014, 0.1952212, -0.06939042,59, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 17, 200, -0.01415273, -0.9899525, 0.1406904,59, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0 17, 200, -0.001355877, 0.9942293, 0.1072673,59, -1, 0, -1, -1, -1, 0

I use the same one every time, just changing the color number.

At this point I like to erase the other painballz if I'm not going to use them. However, I know the jowl color is the paint ballz are the cute mustashes that Labs and goldens sometimes get that I absolutly love and I want to keept them. However, i don't like any paint ballz bellow my paw pads so I moved them above the nose and renamed it.

Something to note - your notes in breed files will not transfer to the pet file. Also, PW will unanchor paint ballz so always save that for last.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

COLORING! WEEE! I do this in PW.

OH NO THE NOSE! It's totally fine, we'll take care of it in a bit.

At this point it is best if you have an idea for what you want to hex, but if not you can wing it, that's always a fun time.

Hit your gradiant ball color circle in your top menu bar on PW

Select your color in the bottom just like the nose in method one.

And start coloring ballz!

Each ball can be selected indivicually(also look at the mustash!).

OR On the left side of PW,

There are tab menus, select the one that says "Balls".

Select multiple with ctrl+right mouse or shift+right mouse(remember that to pay attention to things like R Eye and L iris. If you don't want to cololor the whites of the eye(R or L eye) or the pupil (R or L iris) you don't want to select these.

At the bottom of the selecting box is a button that says "apply to all ballz"(when it's not squished like my window does). hit that and...

it's like a bucket fill! Now you can do multi colors of course, just select a different color like you selected the first and start coloring ballz.

And stick around for part 2 since I hit the limit of photos I can post in one post. HERE IS THE LINK FOR PART 2

Alright this is going to sound weird at firts. But how about the doom breaker guys and girls (who ever you are comfortable with). Receiving a very explicit picture of their S/O while they are in a mission.

Only if you are comfortable with it of course

Dear I've written straight up smut, power dynamics and even a prey-predator (non sexual) one shot once, this is probably one of the most normal things I have on this blog. But thank you for being considerate, it's very much appreciated!

Spicy pics

Doom breaker headcanons.

Feat. Ned, Altair, Ophelia, Lucius

Warnings: implied nsfw, use of magic to make spicy self portraits, use of magic to teleport said portraits, characters being needy af, maybe ooc.

Author note: I'm sorry if you wanted a modern day scenario, I like to mess around with magic and its possible uses. The idea is that reader is a magician or sorcerer or magic-able person that can conjure images on paper and then teleport them to someone or somewhere.

Ned

When the paper scroll materialises itself in his hands, he gets really happy. You have a habit of sending him letters through your magic whenever he's away.

You didn't tell him you recently learned a spell to conjure pictures. So he when he starts opening the scroll he's surprised to see your face, but smiles softly.

Until he sees the full image.

He gets visibly flustered and averts his gaze from the paper he's holding... but looks at it again after a few seconds, unable to resist the sight.

He's putting that scroll away in a safe place, where he keeps your letters... Although maybe he should consider finding a different place, more hidden. He'll talk to you about timing once he's back.

He never gets used to it, no matter how many times you do this. Every time he gets all red in the face and with a problem to solve... Which can be a bit embarrassing if he's teaming up with someone else.

He's super touchy once he comes back to you and very much needs your attentions. The fact that he had to wait until he finished the mission makes him much weaker to your touches later.

Altair

She gets flustered of course, who would have expected to receive such a thing?

Not that she complains though.

She conjures a message that she sends back, scolding you about your indecency and lack of shame.

She does mention a punishment though... Wonder what that is about huh?

You'll have fun finding out once she's back.

Then she establishes a new rule to correct your misbehaviour: every time you send her a spicy portrait while she's on a mission, you have to recreate it when she's back. Not on paper.

Useless to say this doesn't really work to stop you.

The party is worried about her health, as of recently she always heads straight to her quarters as soon as they get back from a mission, is she that tired all the time?

You know she's not by all the energy she puts into scolding you.

Ophelia

The first time she almost tears the scroll apart. She was very surprised to receive such a provoking portrait of you.

She manages not to and puts it in a safe place, then hurries to finish the mission to get back to you. That was quite bold of you dear, once she sees you there will be consequences...

She sort of gets used to it over time, still getting flustered but managing to control her reaction.

She even tries looking indifferent (she really doesn't), especially when there are other people around.

Other people can even tell at this point that you're sending her something particular because when you do, she is very quick to deal with the mission.

She scolds you every time she comes back... But most times end with you two in bed together, with varying levels of nudity involved. You teased her after all...

Lucius

He's very worried about someone else seeing it of course so he hides he portrait the moment he sees it. What he doesn't hide is how much into it he is.

Sure the timing isn't great since he's on a mission, but he doesn't mind it at all.

He sends you back a message of appreciation for this "token of your affection".

And when he comes back he's anything but a saint, acting like he's scolding you but subtly teasing you.

Wish I could say that he tells you to not do it in the future, but he doesn't.

If anything, he encourages you, directly and indirectly, to continue with this scandalous behaviour.

Wenzhou Set 1 (Handcrafted)

Following up yesterday's Dong Fang Yuechu, we have this little Wenzhou set by this same, extremely talented artist.

If you think I can't get enough of this artist's hand-crafted figs, you'd be right! I have more on their way to me even now, including, yes, Wenzhou set 2.

If you haven't read yesterday's post, or if you haven't read this previous post where I talked about Mid-Autumn, Snow Mountain Edition, then you should know I bought this fig set from a fan artist on Xianyu that designs and creates Word of Honor / Junzhe figures. This set are made-to-order figs, meaning that she has this style up in her store and will make it when ordered. She says that she needs a few days to create the fig, but I've noticed that everything I've ever bought from her has shipped immediately, in-stock or otherwise.

These figs arrived wrapped in plastic wrap and cushioned with a bit of polyfill. I did have the warehouse wrap these in air column bubble wrap, since I don't trust something this small and delicate to anything else. Since it's just polyclay, it seems to be pretty resistant to breaking, but crushing damage would absolutely destroy it.

Unlike yesterday's fig, I gave these a nice dusting with my untrustworthy but still useful feather duster, and then brushed the travel lint off with a clean makeup brush. I did pretty well, although I did notice during upload of the pics that a few pieces of grass from the green grass base made their way onto the figs. It's just so hard to see - these figs very small, and my close up vision is not as good as it used to be.

How small you say? Tiny. So small! I'd say a little over half the size of a normal fig, not counting the bases. Here to illustrate relative fig sizes is our Ghost Valley Master. Thank you for your service!

I fell in love with this set immediately. Their faces are so, so cute!

The level of detail is all the more impressive for being so small.

Oh their faces. Just too adorable!

Hmm the detail on these pics are not astounding. The light I took them in wasn't great. I'll take some close ups too so you can actually see all the wonderful detail.

I really like how she did all the hair detail and of course both of their hair ornaments. I particularly love whenever fig makers replicate this particular hair tie of A-Xu's. It's so great!

The little poses with the hands are just so cute. We can't see much of A-Xu's face here since his bangs cover it up, but we can see Lao Wen smiling away!

Why not smile? He's walking along with his favorite person in the jianghu! Who also looks very sweet and happy! I just love them.

Swapping sides so you can get a better view! Alright, let's finish up the two up and down sides so we can get to the details.

Hehe, not too much to see here, although I'll note they look just as cute from this angle.

There we go! Onto the details. I'm going to bring these figs downstairs and see if I can't get some better light somehow.

Well I'll tell you what, the better light did an exceptional job of showing me where I hadn't dusted all the lint off! My goodness. I went back and cleaned it up, but ignore any stray bits. Hopefully this gives you a good amount of detail of his beautiful waist ornament and the painted detail on his robes.

His hairpin is so beautiful I had to show you a picture of it. Just for something like this, can you imagine how long it took to make? To keep referring back to the costume to make sure it was perfect in every detail? Just incredible.

He's so beautiful I just wish my photographic (and dusting!) skills were up to the task. I see my camera decided to focus on his lovely costume instead of his expressive eyes, but hopefully this is at least a little bit better than the further away ones.

Yes, A-Xu, you're perfect, and you've never done anything wrong in your entire life. No I will not be taking any other opinions from the jianghu, thank you!

His hair tie is perfect. I really like how she modeled his hair here, it's lovely. You can see the details and beautiful lines of his robe here - even the sleeves are so artfully done.

Just so delightful. I'm so happy with these figs! I can promise you when the next set arrives, they too will jump to the head of the fig-posting line.
