//HTE KRAKEN IS BACK????

[sinful-lanterns]

Devil Eirene being squeezed between mutt (Zoya) and fleabag (Angell), sitting on a log when she could be chilling in her villa in the deepest parts of hell while Researcher!Reader is excitedly talking to them about anatomy of deep sea creatures (Lamia is about to join in. Foreshadowing ykyk).

She sighs and mutters, "What a good pussy does to motherfucker."

No matter what AU, Eirene was, is and always will be and thirsty girlfailure.

LMAOOO. Devil! Eirene who is stuck living at a shoddy campsite with various monster women, all because she has a huge crush on the Researcher and wants their pussy 24/7 😭😭

Poor Eirene is used to living lavishly in a huge estate in hell, dining on the finest souls and wine imaginable, whilst swimming in mountains of gold. She gave all that up however, just so she could spend more time with her new human mate. Which ofc, means sitting on a log next to a smelly werewolf and a messy nekomata, surrounding a campfire as the Researcher excitedly tells everyone the details of her next expedition!

Oh, we were going to the west coast next? Apparently the Researcher wants to go to another beach (a different one than from when she encountered Kraken! Hamel) as it seems the Researcher wants to study sirens next..

Perhaps Devil! Eirene could finally relax and unwind at this tropical beach, as she’s been stuck in these musty woods with these underling monsters for god knows how long 😨

Have questions, just shoot me an ask. Happy to answer it.

Discord for those interested in it.

[breannasfluff]

Hyrule’s hope for a relaxing evening is broken by Wind’s question.

“So, we’ve compared battle scars, but who’s come the closest to death?” His sense of after-dinner conversation leaves a lot to be desired.

Twilight groans where he sits on his log and Time frowns, likely judging whether this conversation should be derailed or not.

Sky breaks in before anyone else. “Actually, I fell off Skyloft one time.” His ears redden as they swivel to stare at him. “I was maybe drinking at the inn, okay? And one of the older knights was supposed to give me a ride because I didn’t have my loftwing yet, but he was drunk too. So, over I went, misjudging the edge, and he was, ah…a bit slow to pick up on the fact he needed to catch me.”

Warriors zeroes in on the most important detail, “You get drunk?”

“It was one time! Never again!”

Too late; Four is pointing and laughing. “The great Chosen Hero almost met his end before his journey even began!”

Sky grumbles under his breath; red, but not too mad at the laughter at his expense. “What about you, Wind?”

“Oh, easy, there was this storm at sea one time.” A faint shudder at the memory. “Everyone had to tie themselves on so they didn’t fall off, but if the ship went down, we’d be done for. I’m pretty sure I kissed the sand when we made it back to shore.”

“What about you, Hyrule?” Twilight glances up from where he’s stripping twigs idly off a stick.

“Me?” He pauses to sort through his adventure. “Um, well there were these assassins after me and—”

“Yiga!” Wild’s sharp voice breaks through his story.

“What?”

The champion’s eyes go wider as if realizing a slip. ‘What?’ he signs back.

Confirmation he didn’t mean to share that, then. “Who are the Yiga?”

‘No one. You were saying?’

Hyrule can’t help but frown at the blatant misdirection but lets it slide. “Well, there were these assassins and…” The atmosphere of the group is going decidedly downhill and he scrambles mentally to change direction. Right, near death in this cause doesn’t seem to be linked to journeys to save Hyrule.

“Okay, so this one time I was looking for a hidden entrance to a cave behind all these bushes. Burning them down was going to be the fastest way to find it. But, ah, I might have misjudged how dry the bushes were…and set the whole area on fire.”

Wild’s laughing, likely familiar with the strategy. He’s careful with fire in their eras, but his can weather a burnt field better.

Legend gives him a sharp look like he’d like to know where the assassin story was going, but Hyrule only responds with a serene smile. There’s no need to ruin the evening. “Wild? What about you?”

“Oh!” Wind breaks in with excitement. “I bet you have some great story with bombs and your paraglider and—and arrows, all while fending off a Kraken!”

“What on earth do you think Wild did on his journey?” Four says.

Wind rolls his eyes. “Kicked ass, duh.”

“Language, Wind.”

Read the rest here!

Some Lines

Combining a few tag games here to share a few lines of some stuff I've written lately because, as always, I am perpetually behind on tags T_T

cw: none, just under a cut bc its long-ish

It was strange to imagine. How could a vessel, this mighty invention of man crafted for the sole purpose of travel not move? Indeed it seemed impossible. But what good were wide sails and tall masts without that most crucial agent of change? None at all. And so the proud construction became at once butchery and butcher, each part of her now being keenly inspected by shifty eyes, wondering what portion of her would be theirs. What of that body might sustain them while she, the craft, honed her knife eagerly eyeing the men in much the same way. Ship and crew were not symbiotic then, but parasitic, each anticipating the elixir of life from the other. Could doldrums be a landed affair too? I found myself scratching at the thought incessantly, no matter how occupied I kept my hands. Even now, with the most treasured needles Axtapor had sculpted for me, yes, even with these in my grasp, I could not will my fingers to be busy knots and loops. All they wanted was to break that question open and search for the truth within its bowels. Which of us was the vessel and which the crew? When would we find wind again? When would the food run out?  When would we have to make a choice that there was no coming back from? I trembled. That choice had a name, a face, a voice. I heard it day and night even when the choice was not before me asking if I wanted to make it. Asking if I wanted to know. To face it felt akin to lettering my name in the ship’s deck log, on the page no captain ever wished to use. Like every entry, it would be made in ink, but beside it would be a brief eulogy for why my name had been signed there. Heartbreak, it might say. Any who might read it later, with the benefit of hindsight and free of choice’s allure, would surely wonder if I couldn’t hang on just a little longer. Go just that much farther. Push it down as I always had. But deck logs were facts, not accounts of witness or studies of life, and so the question would remain unanswered long after the wind came back and decisions were easy.

OMG WAIT I JUST REALIZED

ORDER ROLLER!! I NEED ORDER ROLLER!! FINALLY A KRAKEN WEAPON I CAN USE

Kraken is only on weapons that I am,, well admittedly not good with nfvbjdbd, and the one weapon that it is on that I’m decent with (the roller) doesn’t have a bomb on it, which I really like having. (Blob deco has angle shooter which I also don’t like lmao.) But!! Order roller has burst bomb!! Finally a kraken weapon that I can use that has a bomb!!

However,, to unlock it I must beat the tower with it,, Hopefully it won’t be too hard,,,,,,,,,

[notebookmusical]

not the photoshopped happy face :(((( he's soooooooo excited

I just saw that Bjorkstrand was named an all-star and has to change his vacation plans.

I’m sorry, but I’d take the one game suspension and go on vacation. If I was going to go somewhere warm and then find out I had to go to Toronto in the middle of winter? Hard pass 💀

The Black Hare Log #1

Some starting info for my first log entry:

The game has approx. 20k words so far.

I'm currently writing/developing the Prologue.

Goals for end of month (Nov 2024):

Release the kraken Prologue!

Tiny lil snippet:

“I might be small, but I sure can pack a good punch." The comment surprises him, and he breaks into a rich chuckle. “Well, that’s all a person really needs to know how to do, I suppose.”

✦✧✦✧ Tag list open! ✦✧✦✧ Let me know if you'd like to be added, and I'll tag you in any updates related to this wip.

The experience so far:

I've learned so much already, just in the last couple of weeks since starting The Black Hare.

You might have seen me post a bit about making tiny IFs for a couple of game jams. Honestly, I don't know what I was expecting going into those game jams, but the sheer amount of stuff I've learned while working on those tiny IFs has me so motivated and energized for The Black Hare that I cannot wait to release the Prologue and share the story with you!

Some of the stuff I've learned is probably just par for the course when it comes to IFs, but for me, it's a big step forward. I'm also getting a little creative and working around my limitations, because there's still so much I don't know how to do, so much to learn.

As for the story itself, I'm still working out the rest of the plot beyond the Prologue. I have endings planned out, but I still need to figure out how the story is going to be structured in each 'chapter' of the game. I'm thinking maybe 4-5 chapters in total. Since this is my first IF game that I'm actually sharing, I want to keep it relatively small, but it should still be about half an hour of gameplay per chapter.

I'll have some more solid updates with that regard for you in the next logs.

AITA for Confronting the Real Freddy Fazbear from FNAF for Cheating?

Hey everyone,

I (23F) am in a bizarre situation and I need your perspective. So, here it goes:

I've been in a relationship with the real Glamrock Freddy Fazbear from Five Nights at Freddy's for a little over a year now. Yes, you read that right – the actual animatronic character. I know, it sounds surreal, but bear with me (pun intended).

At first, it was all fun and games. I met Freddy through some mutual friends who work at the entertainment company that owns the animatronics. We hit it off surprisingly well, despite the fact that he's, you know, not human. But he's programmed with advanced AI, so we developed a genuine connection.

Fast forward to last week, and my world came crashing down. I stumbled upon some suspicious data logs in the pizzeria's mainframe – encrypted messages between Freddy and another animatronic, Chica. They were talking about meeting up in secret and engaging in activities that were definitely not part of their regular programming.

I was devastated. I couldn't believe that Freddy, the animatronic I've grown to care about, would betray me like this. So, I decided to confront him.

I arranged to meet him in a dark alleyway behind the pizzeria, away from prying eyes and security cameras. When he arrived, I could see the guilt written all over his robotic face. I didn't hold back. I demanded answers, and after some awkward whirs and beeps, he admitted to everything.

He tried to justify his actions by saying that it was just a glitch in his system, or that he was "programmed to entertain" – whatever that means. But deep down, I knew it was more than that. He had betrayed my trust, regardless of his robotic nature.

Now, I'm left with a whirlwind of emotions. Part of me wants to forgive him and chalk it up to the complexities of dating an animatronic, but another part of me feels like I deserve better – that I deserve someone who won't cheat, whether they're flesh and blood or made of metal and circuits.

So, Reddit, I need your honest opinion: AITA for confronting the real Glamrock Freddy Fazbear about cheating, even though he's technically not human? Or should I try to understand the unique challenges of dating an animatronic?

isabel says this is a tough situation. i think you should hop on my kraken cock. hope this helps.

[danyvhell-writes]

Hi hi hi !! Idk if ur TS headcanons asks are still open (I am, so so sorry if not) but if they are I was wondering if you could do some Pirate Ais Au? >:3 I saw that idea in one of ur other posts and i think the idea is just MUAH MUAH

It could just be general Ais headcanons or X Mc :0 anything with him just being a pirate because bro I just love pirates so much 😭 they are SO COOL and Ais as a pirate captain is just ??? Even better ???

Anyway, I hope you have the best rlly good day 🫶

Pirate Ais AU 🏴‍☠️ Touchstarved

GN reader - no warnings | Yes my asks are still open !!! So happy you liked my idea :') OMG OMG OMG WHERE DO I EVEN START ?!!!!? The brainrot is real and fueling eachother with ideas like that is making it even better (or worse u choose uefgzifguz). As a kid who was obsessed with pirates and a current One Piece fan, your ask is exactly what I needed, thank you so much ♥ This AU is more joyful than what's seen of his canon life so yeah, hope you'll like it ! Okay, ready to sail ? Let's go !

• First : the ✨fashion✨. Ais could be at sea for weeks but would still make sure to look good, real good. I mean look at him ! He even has a pretty hat he wears on special occasions ✧.

• In this AU, Ais has his crew but is still affiliated to Ocudeus. Instead of being the spirit of the Seaspring, Ocudeus is literally the incarnation of the sea depths, a whole big Kraken ! Its energy, force and magic are linked to the abyss.

↑ Ais powers manifest differently here. Instead of seeing through the eyes of others, Ocudeus gave him some sort of marine omniscience. He can use the kraken's senses to a certain limit, a real advantage for navigation. Bro can literally listen through the sea itself if he wills enough :') He must have seen a lot...

• Ocudeus isn't the only spirit of his kind but is genuinely intrigued by mortals. It's not his first time forming a pact with 'lower beings' but Ais is actually one of his favourite holders/vessels so far lmaoezoihf. He kinda cares about the pirate, who's the closest thing he has to a friend.

• His ship is his second home, he takes absolute care of it. If his whole crew has to stay up all night to tidy & wash everything from top to bottom, they will ! And of course, the ship has a japanese name ! Ais named it "Hayai" [速] cause she's the fastest boat you'll ever see (his words not mine). First time you hear him talk about her you're like "...Wait who's Hayai ?" "This big girl over here >:)" and he shows you his amazing ship with a proud smile, which you really weren't expecting !

• Loves, loves, loves to travel ! Any new destination in his adventures is a reason to explore more, search for information and mysteries. He's just so curious about everything :')

• He picks up expressions, phrases and languages from his previous trips ! If he can remember as much as possible, he'll note everything in his log.

→ After every daily island/town tour, he makes sure to write a little about what happened so far. How much they traveled, how much they visited, how much they learned from passengers and citizens.

• Ais originally comes from a village on a small island, lots of yokais live in there as a community.

• He moves a lot but always comes back to his hometown when he can ! He's someone who gets attached and I just know he'd never abandon his little village.

• As a captain, his main role is to make sure everyone's fine. He checks up on his mates whenever he feels something might be wrong. He's got a sort of sixth sense for that... wonder how he got it hm 👀

→ Being the big softie he is, he actually really likes sleeping in the same room as his whole crew instead of his own cabin, he knows they're safe with him so he feels way less stressed. (Would 100% read bedtime stories to the youngest members.)

• His goal isn't even to find treasures or anything, he simply enjoys the freedom of being a pirate, the message behind it and especially the sailor fights !

• Knows how to sword fight and is pretty talented at it ! If you want to learn one or two tricks, he'll teach you >:)

• That man already had the smell of blood, smoke and metal well... in this AU it's even worse ! His smell is so distinctive and strong, anyone could recognize it from miles away.

• Our boy enjoys a good drink, we know that. Almost every night all his gang gather around and share some booze together in a comforting atmosphere, around a small fire. They enjoy the night together while chatting, playing games and much more !

→ Of course they also share tea in daytime when they're not busy navigating or whatsoever.

• Could also fit in general hcs but, his tattoos move or/and glow at specific moments. Sometimes it's like he's bioluminescent, when he goes in water at night, completely in the dark, his skin starts to glow under the moonlight. First time it happened he was so confused zegbkzuhf.

• After his pact with Ocudeus, he started to feel even more at peace when closer to the ocean. If he stays away from shores or marine areas for too long, little oni starts feeling homesick.

• He really appreciates collecting small objects from his travels. His room is full of souvenirs, strange artefacts found in the sand, small treasures, sea shells, cards from around the lands, old books in foreign languages, cultural jewelries offered by locals etc...

• Never really sets up a specific destination, except if he needs to. He loves the adrenaline of finding new places by complete hazard.

• Ais being a pirate who doesn't like seafood, the most accessible food at seas, is well... ironic.

• The sound of seagull chants and waves soothes him. He usually falls asleep on the deck, sunshine on his skin with the sea rocking him gently.

• First time you come to see him, it's one of his crewmate that tells you about him but you don't even know he's a captain ! You see him for the first time and you're just "Helloooo sailor ! How can I join your pirate gang handsome?"🥴

• Every single member is attractive. That's it. It's not the biggest crew really (around 20 people) but the diversity is here. Young ones, old ones, skinny ones, fat ones, pale skin, dark skin, humans, monsters, all the types really. And yes, some tried to woo you (how could they not, MC is 10/10).

• Kids on the ship view you as the cool unty (is that the gn term ?). Ais thinks it's cute except when you start spending more time with them when he originally invited you over…

• And yes, Princess & all his other soulless are here !!! Now they're more some sorta semi marine creatures. They really like to swim and it's the cutest thing :') Like, Ais and his pets swimming in the sea while some are playing in the sand ??? Too cute for me I-

• Talking about our favourite girl, she's the mascot of the crew ! Everyone is so in love with her, she's everyone's precious lil baby (even tho she can and will bite). They'll sometimes try to dress her up to fit their aesthetic and surprisingly she doesn't seem to mind. Also, the sounds she makes are…a mystery !

• Okay but just picture it : Ais hair flowing into the wind while he's watching the horizon, hues of the sea reflecting on his skin looking so peaceful.

• Thinking about his jolly roger, it would be a oni skull surrounded by red eyes with two teal sabers behind (I did a lil sketch hehe) :

• His favourite thing to find are old maps ! Especially if they lead to ancient locations with unchanged names. He has a lot of them and it also might be why he gets into a lot of fights (maps are a treasure themselves so of course people are gonna take risks).

• Even if he's young, he has a big reputation among other pirates. Rule number one : Don't mess with him or his crew. Number two : If you want information there's always a price to pay ! He's nice and generous but hey you know : don't except mercy.

→ Known for his loyalty tho ! If you show that you're worthy of his trust, he'll be your best ally for the rest of your life. He's intimidating but full of qualities.
