#Its German if you want to know

[textheslightlymorelimited]

What about:

„This isnt the Yellow of the Egg.“ not the best.

„The one who waits, rusts.“ Procrastinating on something that takes skill makes you worse at said thing.

„The Eye eats with you.“ Food should look good to taste good.

„It is not yet the evening of all Days.“ Things havent been decided yet.

„Ending Good, all is Good.“ Everything turned out fine in the end.

„Morning Hour has Gold in the Mouth.“ Waking up early is good.

„A friend in [Times of] Trouble is indeed a Friend.“ Friends who stick with you through Bad Times are real Friends.

„The Devil eats flies in Times of Trouble.“ Beggars cant be choosers.

„The April does what it wants.“ The Weather in the Month of April is often very unpredictable.

„One who sows Wind, will reap Storms.“ Actions have Consequences.

„Thats how it becomes a Shoe.“ Exclamation of finally doing something Right after a Long Time of doing it wrong.

„Drawing the Devil on the Wall.“ Being a Pessimist.

„Buying the Cat in the Bag.“ Buying something without checking the Wares beforehand.

„Teaching Money.“ Same as above.

„One who has the Choice, has the Suffering.“ Pretty obvious.

„Horses have been seen throwing up.“ Anything is Possible.

„No Master has ever fallen from the Skies.“ It takes time to Master something.

And my Personal Favourite:

„God, throw Rocks or Brain, just dont Miss!“ Everyone around me is Stupid.

maffhew who refuses to say runebergin torttu because he knows hes gonna butcher it so bad he might be kicked out of the country the second he tries and staunchly avoids that by going "the one dessert that barky is going to have to explain 😃"

sasha who gets faced with the most generic description of everything hes ever eaten in his life so far because of maffhew and going "???... oh you mean runebergin torttu!"

"he did good he liked the food and he likes the finland so far so its good" sasha says with so much pride now that all the anxiety has left his system that his husband teammate is enjoying his country and doesnt hate it

do you guys wanna know how i ended up here. it was in current worlds finest run when bruce was casually like "that's a shang dynasty bronze sword" in a dick measuring contest with that other guy so that he can look cool in front of clark and i was like. did he just casually date an early china bronze object and then i had no choice but to unzip my pants

So I just read the first Darkenblot story (finally. only took me more than 10 years) and God DAMN does it go hard.

(ignore that this cover is for the second story)

Like Blotty in the prologue is basically just Iron Man if he was in prison instead of held captive by terrorists and if he was actually way cooler because Tony is nothing compared to the absolute swagger this guy just oozes.

Amd tehen he iust

lLIKE LOOK AT HIM AND TELL ME THAT HE ISNT COOL AND INWILL TEL YOU YORURE LYING

Im not gonna spoil the rest because its a detective story so you know spoilers kind of ruin that. SO YOU SHOULD READ IT IF YOU HAVENT ALREADY

It even got an American release so you have zero excuses. If you have the time to scroll tumblr you have the time to read Darkenblot. So read Darkenblot. We’re making this phase one of the Phantom Blot propaganda coming this year i want everyone to spread the fucking sick design he has in this story like the plague.

Darkenblot has good shock value for a Mickey Mouse thing so it’s perfect to kick off operation blot brain wash. People gonna look at this and go whaaaa and then you grab them and take them with you into the inescapable Blot hole.

But for you to be able to do that you must have first read Darkenblot so GO GO GO

in the meantime come to horrifying realization there's like zero yan clorinde content so everyone sit down and listen to my ted talk (this is a requirement I have locked the doors and blocked the fire exits)

personally don't think Clorinde leans towards threats to be honest. she'd feel horrible and guilty if she did and I don't think she could handle you hating her or being afraid of her (maybe if you pushed her far enough then maybe she could justify it because she's trying to protect you but you'd really have to push it).

imo? leans more towards following you around with a hint of subtle manipulation behinf the scenes0. even if it's within the confines of the Court of Fontaine and the place is swarming with Gardemeks you can never be too sure. absolutely fumbles the excuse if you catch her though (if)

the epitome of gentleman, too. she "bumps" into you a lot and always offers to help– even if it's just a few small bags she takes them from you to help ease your burden, basically following you around like a lost puppy. it's a lot easier to trust the nice, polite woman who helped you then the stilted, awkward woman desperate for your attention.

her reluctance to threaten you or force you to do anything doesn't extend to people you know, though. she can cook up any manner of crime that'd get them stuck fighting a duel with her or dealing with a trial that'd get them sent straight to the fortress.

of course, the first thing she'd do is make sure you're okay. she still cares about you (and she really doesn't mean to manipulate you, but really, don't you find it odd that everyone around you is so sketchy? you should be more careful about who you trust. you trust her though, dont you?).

clorinde is very much in for the long game, in the end. she'd only kidnap you as a last resort. she'd much prefer slowly getting closer to you and having you come with her of your own free will (even if it's because she's been planting ideas in your head that you really aren't safe all alone like this. all your friends turned out to be criminals, after all, and what if they start to blame you and try to hurt you? it's best that you stay with her for a while)

if you had a lover, though? oh, she's livid. she makes sure to pin an absolutely heinous crime on them– one that would involve you. after all, she could swoop in and play savior after killing that wretched pest. she did save you from their alleged plan, after all.

a bit awkward with physical affection to be honest, but she tries in her own way. she does what she can to make your life easier– protects you, makes sure you have a roof over your head and nice clothes, a bed and warm baths, expensive foods..anything you want, she would get you without even asking.

why would you ever want to leave? don't you know how dangerous it is outside? who would take care of you if not her? she provides you with all you need, and with only the best (please don't leave)

basically your personal guard dog. she won't bite if you just listen to her and stay put.

and she's just absolutely smitten. careful if you actually use her gifts, because she'll think you're reciprocating her affection whether you are or not. you'll be drowning in new clothes, always trying need food..and she'll always be hovering over your shoulder, watching.

Not to be like entirely predictable, but

👉👈🥺 Would appreciated opinions

(generell ramblings about what this is about in the tags i guess)

the thing about FFXIV and character voice and my replaying in german that i keep running into is that most of the time I don't even notice the character voice is significantly different in german because the character talks like how I remember them talking. and then I see literally anyone open their mouth in english and they don't actually talk like that, they talk in a stupider and more generic way. estinien and sidurgu are both irreverent older brother type knights running on hyper vengeance trauma and getting mad at moogles for harshing their chuuni vibe but because the german writers are good at character voice there's still a clear distinction between estinien as guy who plays tony hawk on his xbox 360 and sidurgu who plays call of duty on his xbox one. it's all so natural. you know exactly what i mean by that and they talk exactly like that. but not in english. in english they're forced to say mayhap.

who is the scoundrel? I see you posting about them(it? Idk) all the time but I haven’t figured out who they are

my fallen london OC! i made them by accident a few months ago and as you can tell ive very quickly developed scoundrel brainrot. it's a terminal illness for which there is no cure and the symptoms are instead of brain there is scoundrel.

in terms of actual character rundowns, their full moniker is The Bandaged Scoundrel, though i tend to call them "the scoundrel" for short. their real name is D█████, but they'd sooner die permanently than respond to or even acknowledge its existence.

they are! a bastard! a rat! a son of a b___! a motherf______! they are vain beyond your wildest imagination and they think they're the most infallible perfect being in all of existence and they have the exact attitude of a saturday morning power-hungry cartoon supervillain on cocaine.

and also, perhaps most importantly, they're Really Fucking Stupid. because of course they are.

they are resplendently awful. they are inevitably going to cause their own demise in an act of pure karmic retribution. they are a speck of dust in history that desperately keeps trying to insist they're actually a tornado. i love them dearly.

in loose conclusion while also acknowledging ive explained literally nothing; my goofy silly victorian london browser game player character that deserves to get timetraveled against their will to the 21st century specifically so they can get hit by a truck

I started a "big" drawing of them, but didn't wanna get too into it, so here are some small Hussar Martian :)

reading fayde (again). just found this line of Egg head referencing Never ending story by Limahl

Egg Head - "Rhymes that keep their secrets will unfold behind the clouds!"

does anyone know what this might reference? (if its a reference at all) he says this after they "tame" the sound recorded from the swallow for the music :

Egg Head - "THIS IS BEAUTY, THIS IS LIFE!"

I thought it could be a lyrics but I didn't find anything, except a sermon from G. Campbell Morgan which could be a coincidence but also the dolorian church is kinda based on christianity so maybe...?

I behold Him [Christ], and I say already to myself, Yea, verily, this is glory, this is beauty, this is life, this is perfection! But I am not that, I cannot be that. Therefore am I filled with fear, and the fear is generated by the apprehension of the glory and the beauty of Christ.

it's between Scooter references:

You - "THIS ONE IS FOR THE ANODIC GENERATION!" Egg Head - "INTRODUCING THE ULTIMATE SOUND!" Egg Head - "DOLORIAN CHURCH -- THE PLACE TO BE!" Egg's losing himself in the sound. "Pump it, pump it!"

listening to the pale is described like this:

Andre - "Guys, what's going on?" There's alarm in the man's voice, as he steps back to scan the surroundings

Egg Head - "HOSIANNAH! MOTHER OF MEGA!" You hear Egg Head yell -- then something else, but his voice is growing faint... Empathy - In his mind, a tidal wave approaching from afar, swallowing entire coastlines on its way... salvation. Electrochemistry - He's peaking -- the worst high he's ever been on.

Egg Head - "Yeah! It was awesome, and scary. Very hard core!"

I got off my train and my brain randomly threw: "Do you know who has the same waistline like Mori? Your old history teacher you had a crush on." at me and I haven't been the same since.

making notes of movies im considering getting on dvd this year for christmas and these prices need to be cheaper before i can justify getting some of these movies

[just-eyris-things]

Vent post. Because i feel like kicking a hornets' nest.

Honestly im just tired of how people will call someone ignorant/uneducated and will go for the throat for every little thing, while they themselves say shit like pierogis all the time. If you're going to point fingers at others, you yourself should be without fault.

The question is... can you?
