Ok interactions between the 09 and 22 characters would be INSANE
I say MacTavish HATES Soap for being so very like him but not quite. He can only see the flaws and how it's going to get everyone killed.
Riley and Ghost have three options:
1) they become besties and make jokes about trauma and it terrifies everyone
2) they mutually agree without staying a word to stay away from each other
3) they absolutely hate each other because they know each other's weaknesses
Reboot Price jumps other Price on sight
I feel like both Gaz's would get along great.
However Ghost would like MacTavish until he realized he didn't like Soap and then he wouldn't be so chill anymore.
Reboot Price... I'm actually not sure
Reboot Gaz would think he's a snob and just dislike him on principle for how he treats Soap which...valid
Everyone loves Riley he is just peak (except for maybe Ghost as stated above). Riley is the favorite he gets along with Gaz with the sarcasm and Soap just because...well It's a version of MacTavish.
Riley is unsure of reboot Price at first but quickly becomes attached.
09 Gaz I can't see him as anything other than neutral just everyone likes the guy. He's funny, he's good, he's great.
The reboot 141 take one ONE look at 09 Price and DESPISE him. BECAUSE WHAT THE FUCK?! THAT IS NOT PRICE. (Even 09 Gaz won't give him the time of day)
The thing is MacTavish thinks Soap is a fool. And Soap KNOWS that actually the issue is MacTavish
Soap is smart any version of them are incredibly intelligent but MacTavish has lost the plot. You have Soap over here pointing out the inconsistencies and flaws with his logic and hero worship. But MacTavish will NOT hear it because what does this Sergeant know?!
He also gets super jealous that Riley likes him It's just insult injury
And the thing is Riley's just probably tired of having to deal with my MacTavish's BS. Riley loves him no doubt but it's just refreshing to have another version of the man he loved before he kind of lost himself
Soap can't help but pity the man. He understands why he acts like he does he just wishes it didn't end up like that. He can't even help him MacTavish won't listen. I mean why would a man want to admit he's wrong and rearrange his whole worldview that he's had set for so many years. Death truly is an easier choice.
And Soap knows that's what's going to happen he just wishes that with the trajectory he's headed it won't take out his whole team but he doesn't think either of them are that lucky.
(Roach is just watching from the rafters)

aging yourself up or down in your dr (+ dating)
I actually refrained from talking on this topic on my tiktok since I knew I was going to get chased off the app and didn’t see a point in talking about it on tumblr since everybody here seems to be more open minded and mind their own business, until I saw multiple posts a few days ago here, where the op were shaming people for changing their age or changing the ages of people in their dr
those people definitely came from tiktok and I honestly hope this post reaches them as I didn’t want to directly interact with them
I think one of the posts was about how adults age ‘minors’ in their dr to date them is problematic, which made me laugh, because how is it problematic if they’re both the same age in their dr?
and the sad thing about that post is that the op said that they’re aware how shifting works and all that, but still finds it problematic and hopes people that do that never shift which is just… girly I hope YOU never shift because you don’t deserve it for shaming people trying to live their lives
I’m not going to go into details about the og posts, but they still have the outdated idea that if you shift for a character that is much younger than you here it’s ‘problematic’. once again: how is it problematic if you’re the same age in your dr?
and then they hit you with another outdated take ‘it’s problematic because you find them attractive here’ which is ridiculous because of so many reasons
1.many characters (especially anime characters) don’t act or look their age. if your perceived a character as an adult initially then found out they’re a minor, I simply don’t care. ages in fiction never matter, if your mind perceived x as a certain age then they’re that age idc; 99.99% people are attracted to a character for who they are, not their age
2.many people had crushes on characters when they were younger or the same age with that character and still like them. let’s boo them that their crush on the character didn’t die and their fav character didn’t age, acting like you’re not going to be in their place in a few years
‘not true I’ll stop liking my favorite character when I’m of age 😡’
okay sweetie keep telling yourself that, because I keep seeing people on tiktok that had this mentality: they liked an underage character when they were minors and wanted to shift for them, now they’re adults, haven’t shifted yet but STILL like that character and regret having said they’re gonna stop liking that character when they’re adults because it didn’t happen lol
3.people don’t always script that an underage person here will be their s/o, it just might happen. I’m actually going to use myself as an example for this: so here I’m an adult and I’m also aroace which I dislike because I always dreamed of a fantasy novel like romantic relationship, so I’m straight or bi in most of my drs so I can date. in my jujutsu kaisen dr, all the people in jujutsu tech are adults because I don’t like teens or kids and don’t wanna hangout with them. in my 30+ drs I only have 3 scripted s/os which are all adults here. I didn’t script an s/o for my jjk dr, because I want to focus more on friendships and training there (but secretly hoped choso would pick me, a girl can dream ok); a few weeks ago I channeled multiple people from my dr (yuuji, megumi, nobara, gojo, nanami and geto) and I received normal messages from all of them. I expected all of their answers, except yuuji’s answers which had romantic aspects to them. that made me realize that he might have a crush on me and maybe we’ll even date in my dr or something? who knows, I didn’t think too much about it so idk
so now if a character that’s underage here likes me in my dr, am I supposed to refuse them or shift out? lmao you’re delusional if you think I’m doing that
4.people that have never experienced adolescence love here. a lot of people dreamed of having that sweet experience of teenage romance that disney and an insane amount of shows and movies love to push, but instead their teen years were filled with abuse and hate. why shouldn’t they shift to experience what was taken from them here?
ALSO let’s switch this around: why is okay for minors to date adults in their dr, but not the other way around?
‘it’s not as bad 🤓☝🏻’
imma be the devil’s advocate and say it’s just as bad
do you genuinely think it’s okay to be a minor here and date an adult in your dr? like do you really think your s/o would feel comfortable being sexualized by a minor and dating a person that’s a minor in another reality? you lowkey forced your partner to become a pedo if you think about it 🙁 /jk
and also if you shift to a reality where you’re a minor and become of age there, you’re officially an adult and shouldn’t date minors anymore, even in your ‘original reality’ where you’re still a minor. please keep the same standards for yourself

Favorite Headcanons for airy?
i have like 10 million headcanons for him but i’ll list as many as i can from the top of my head
-hes autistic LIKE ME!!! and is specifically very autistic about music (like meee) i like to think he had a huge collection of vinyls cds cassettes etc and its all stuff from the 60s to the early 90s. no doubt he had a bunch of posters for his favorite bands and musicians too. and hes awesome on the guitar, great rhythm guitarist… its a shame he couldn’t make his talent a profession like he once dreamed of doing. oh well, at least the number 1 perk of trucking is that its peaceful and you dont really have to interact with many people! plus trucks have radios, and cd players, so airy would often bring along a few albums to listen to as he drove those long days and nights.
-hes also got a knack for aquatic creatures (LIKE ME) of course, being a literal fish monster himself (cool fact my airy design is like actually a fish monster he can breathe underwater and everything and his limbs are covered in fish scales) airy loves fish both as friends and food. hes particularly fond of freshwater fish, which makes sense considering the fact he grew up around the swamps of louisiana (yes im making him louisianan Like Me shaddap) hes also fond of those fucked up looking deep sea creatures, just so fascinating. i think airy liked to do a little fishing in his spare time. And hes awesome at cooking em but fair warning for those with a low spice tolerance… he loves spicy food btw (like meeeee)
-when airy was in the forest, he kept a log of his thoughts on the computer, in an attempt to hopefully give himself whatever clarity he could. the notes ranged from all brief, to desperate, to hopeless, to spiraling, to borderline dadaist poetry? to insanity, to denial, to whatever, really i think his mind was obviously all over the place on a daily basis. things must have been pretty loud for him, that cassette player was probably one of the only things keeping him together, before he numbed himself n all, which is around the time he ceased writing these notes as he saw no point in doing so.
-ok enough about him suffering we’ll get back to that later Airy’s favorite drink is ginger ale i mean look at that guy and tell me he doesnt fw ginger ale or dr pepper are you kidding me. he can have dr pepper as a little treat (too much soda is bad for anyone especially if youre an old feller like airy) speaking of little treats i like to think he has an insatiable sweet tooth LIKE MEEEE and his favorite treaaats are pumpkin pie, macarons and practically anything chocolate he loves chocolate (im like allergic to not projecting onto my favorite characters if you couldnt tell) maybe airy knows how to bake a little bit i mean he is an object show host after all
-this is oddly specific but airy is a chronic pain warrior #JUSTLIKEME so when he was in the forest he’d make like home made heating pads by wetting a glob of moss and putting it against his face while he had his flame on (he sometimes put it on a plank over a bonfire if he felt like it) this was a bit tricky when he broke his face but im sure he managed he always manages (kinda) (relatively speaking)
-well anyway we’re back to the forest and i just mentioned his broken face So you know how he disappeared for seven months after he did that lol well what if it was because the pain and shock from that incident evoked the long lost clarity he’d been so stubbornly avoiding in order to cling on to his meaningless, fallacious escapism which triggered him and sent him into a state of agonizing self consciousness, reminding him of his earthly death, how he used to be Someone, and how he essentially let himself rot into what is now an empty shell of who he once was. after so many years, the first reflection he saw of himself was seen in something broken; shards of glass, of which he couldn’t stand to look at… as there is nothing comparable to the pain of revelation, the burden of truth after having been so lost and festered into the stagnant waters that surround you. he felt he had no choice, he disposed of the shards into the nearby stream. those seven months were not just a matter of physically healing, but as a means to losing himself all over again.
-Aaaanyway i think airy had a cat at some point in his life i think we can all agree hes a cat person right!!! he had a tortoiseshell kitty named goose and he loved her very much. idk why he named her goose he probably just thought it was funny to name an animal after a different animal.
-OH YEAH lemme bring amelia into this listen i am such a huge fan of the theory of airy being related to amelia so i like to think hes her uncle!! when amelia was little she’d stay over at airy’s house while her parents were away and he’d teach her stuff like how to fish, how to ward off snakes, how to kayak, all that jazz cuz he was an awesome uncle. she was kinda like an actual daughter to him. and amelia was so fond of sunny weather as a child, one dayy at airy’s house she had to stay inside because it was too rainy, so she occupied herself by drawing a little picture of the way she wished earth was; always sunny, sky always blue, grass always green, huh! the way she drew that grass as individual little triangles is all too familiar is it not…
OK I HAVE SOMEWHERE 2 GO now i’ll probablt add more later But thank u so much for asking this i love love love infodumping about anything airy related i heart airy
#frank answers a thing#airy hfjone#hfjone#believe it or not this is just a few#i have so many i have way too many i have so so so many things to say about airy oh my gosh#oh my gosh airy

Ok quick recap for day 2 of ANDROGYNOS before I go out to eat lol
Again we had another peak Kyo vocal performance today, and he had a lot more stage energy today, a lot more audience interaction. He seemed super pumped up compared to yesterday which was awesome to see
Kyo was wearing the black outfit today, he had two leather gloved severed arms draped around his neck like a scarf, where the two arms hung in front. He also had a red baby like the D'OR one hanging on his back. Its a little hard to describe, but i kind of want to draw it. Kyo also came on stage holding a bouquet of black flowers and performed with it for a while. Overall I kind of preferred day 1's look better, but that's because the red hair and red robe from day 1 was so vibrant and beautiful, today's look was absolutely gorgeous too though. Maybe among my favorites to be honest
Kyo had extremely intricate makeup today with painted skull teeth and almost zombie like skin with the intricate black lines all over his face. His extensions today were black and very long, probably as long as last night (about waist length)
Setlist unfortunately very similar to yesterday, but world of mercy was a welcome difference, and it was a pretty incredible performance of it. I unfortunately can't recall the complete setlist rn but I'm sure it's already been posted elsewhere. That was my main disappointment of the night, unfortunately, but all the performances were still solid as fuck. We got a much more emotional Ranunculus this time
Did not understand any of Kyo's MC this time lmao but yes, he did another MC.
I swear Kaoru's hair is light pink? But idk if that was just the lighting and it's actually blonde
Toshiya's costume included detachable kimono like sleeves, he threw one of them off at the end of their performance in a very dramatic fashion. In general, Toshiya was super showy the whole live lol
One thing I forgot to mention yesterday is that Kyo danced quite a lot on both days, mostly the strange jerking "robot" like dance moves where he looks like a marionette. It was literally mesmerizing.
I cannot emphasize how hard Kyo went with his performances. He was constantly dancing, headbanging, and moving around, and he had the DIR fans in the audience wrapped around his little finger. The Pierrot fans were not super enthused though lol
#dir en grey#im sorry this is another terrible recap but im in the hotel in a massage chair rn about to pass the fuck out lol#also im sorry i only really have kyo details#i tried to look at the other members this time i swear#but kyo was just absolutelt mesmerizing

Corroded Coffin Fest - Day 13 - Sex, Drugs, & Rock n Roll
Summary: Up and coming Rockstar Eddie meets his dream girl on Corroded Coffin's first tour. And she's nothing like what he thought she'd be like...
Word Count: 991
Pairing: Rockstar!Eddie x Pornstar!Reader
Rating: T - I KNOW LISTEN BEAR WITH ME...we're playing with the oxymoron ok? ITS NOT ABOUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP
Warnings/Themes: minor discussion of the rockstar/pornstar life (of which I have no experience), mention of smut but nothing graphic, strangers to...somethings, AU within an AU, satire, metafiction, angst, fluff, friendship
Note: Keeping in theme with Saturdays tying into my existing series, this entry takes place in the dream-AU that I just established in the last chapter of my series Stranger Than (Fan)Fiction, which is a story about Eddie realizing that he's been written into a crossover fanfiction with his favorite fictional character (you) from a cult classic television show called Port Geneva (which exists in-universe but obviously was made up by me). Does it sound like a headache? Because it probably is. STFF is EddiexFem!Reader. But its fun and if you're willing to give it a shot...idk I'm biased but 10/10 recommend.
Check Out the Main Post for @corrodedcoffinfest here! Even if you didn’t start on Day 1, you can still join!
Tagging: @the-unforgivenn at her request.
You can find my masterlist here.
Please do not interact if you are not 18+.
Enjoy!
If someone would've told Eddie that he would meet his favorite porn star--let alone sleep with them--he would've said they were delusional.
But there you had been.
In the pit at one of the shows on their first tour. A face and body he'd seen dozens, if not hundreds, of times on tapes from the adult section at Family Video.
Someone he'd convinced himself he loved, in some weird and desperate way; the world was unforgiving and you were reliably in the VCR anytime he needed you, so could you blame him?
He'd intended to find you after the show, but you had the guts to come and find them first. To tell them you'd been a fan of theirs after seeing them at the state fair last year.
Then one thing led to another...
It was wild, what coincidences and experiences his rising fame brought to him, especially in a dinky town like Port Geneva.
"It's not that dinky," you laughed. You were curled on your side, hand tucked under your head, staring at him like he’d just hung the stars. Maybe he had; he’d made you scream, after all.
A feat he was pretty proud of, actually.
“I’d never even heard of this place before coming here,” he scoffed in return. "Couldn't even tell you what state we're in."
You hummed, “it's funny how you'd never heard of this town but you recognized me.”
You'd brought it up more than once downstairs at the hotel bar. Disbelief that he knew your face when the whiskey had loosened his tongue enough to admit it. Almost to the point of self-deprecation.
“It’s just a job,” you explained. “It pays the bills. Makes relationships hard. But I have a little trinket shop in town. M'sure it’d be closed by now if I didn’t get those checks.”
And whatever stories he'd made up about you in his head before to convince himself it was ok to sort of be hopelessly in love with someone on the other side of his television screen were soon replaced with facts about the real you.
The reality of this situation made him, in contrast, feel almost too embarrassed by himself and his so-called fame. You, happy to stay here unknown, and him, riding his rising star all the way to the top if he could.
There was a long way to go.
”Well I’m surprised you’d heard of us,” Eddie scoffed. “We’ve only had one or two singles on the radio. We don’t even sell out our shows.”
“You will.”
“You have a lot of faith in us.”
“You don’t?”
“I feel like we’d do better if I still sold weed at the merch table before our gigs.” He smiled as you laughed, genuine joy radiating in his heart to see it.
“That’d get people in the door,” you agreed. You poked his cheek. "I forgot to get a t-shirt, by the way. Was too busy chasing after you like some hopeless fangirl to stop."
This was how it’d been all night. Nothing like he expected.
None of it was, actually.
It had been a whirlwind and he knew he wasn't the only one who felt like that. One day they were managing their own shit, going from state fair to state fair on their real first "tour." Then they had music on the radio and a manager and were on their way to making their first album...eventually.
Albums don't make money, Phil had said, shocking them all when Eddie had asked about it. Touring does.
They'd been offered uppers when they were tired, downers when they got too riled up. There was more money thrown around than any of them had seen their whole lives. And then there was a stern discussion where they had to decide what their future looked like and if they were in it for the long run.
They were just a bunch of guys in their 20s...and they had to decide their whole future right now.
But tonight's show was the first where he actually felt in command of the stage and not just like he was playing pretend.
He and his friends finally got their dream.
People knew them, knew their music, some people even sang along.
You hadn't even been the only one to approach them after the show.
Did they even deserve it?
"I'm just a guy from Hawkins," he whispered to you. "Waiting to wake up from this dream or for them to send me back."
Or something else. There was a lingering feeling that there was just something else waiting for the penny to drop.
Eddie continued spilling his soul to you, in hushed whispers across the pillows, about his hopes and fears, and before he could get to a point where he was certain he was about to cry...you crossed the distance and pressed a kiss to his lips.
It could have been a shut up, you talk too much kind of kiss, but there was something so soothing about it, about the way you caressed his cheek and dropped tiny pecks against his mouth when all was said and done. Two kindred spirits, finding their way to each other in a mess of uncertainty.
"The future is scary," you told him. "But you have to be ok with the choices that you make."
"Do you have any regrets?" he asked.
"Maybe. But then I wouldn't have gotten to meet you." You looked bashful for a second and then rubbed a hand over your face. "Yeah. The rockstar and the pornstar...definitely power couple material."
"We could be. They could write stories about us one day."
"Eddie, it's a one-night stand."
"Doesn't have to be."
"And who is this they you speak of."
"Our adoring fans."
"Uh huh." You snorted. "You have to buy me dinner first before we have some epic love story worthy of stories written about us."
Eddie just smiled.
"How about breakfast?"

ok i played tokyo debunker all day here is a quick (not really) review
first off gameplay is for the most part non-existent. you do fight against monsters but the entire thing is in autoplay and you can skip the whole thing by pressing a single button
there is a rhythm game part every like 10 battles or so though which made me happy. even if the songs are all public domain ones. and it's extremely offbeat. and there's tap registration issues.
ok next why does tokyo debunker use ai art in it. genuinely embarrassing.
went on a 4 year hiatus to "elevate the quality of the game to further meet your expectations and be able to face elevating competition in the gaming industry" only for the game to release and not even have the effort put in to hire actual artists... ITS SO DISAPPOINTING what was the point of that hiatus if you aren't even gonna try. they should've released the original game they had at this point
ai art is used in all the backgrounds of the visual novel section and some of the interactable items like the images for the quiz you do during the prologue. The manga style and card art don't use it at all it seems though
and once you realize it you cannot unsee it and it completely ruins everything
seems like all the budget went towards the voice actors because the game has no original soundtrack either. everything is remixed classical music.
not to mention the game is super cash grabby. it's a zigzagame game so it's to be expected but still. stuff like having to pay more than a 10 pull just to be able to change your icon from the default one is actually insane. also 1% SSR rate and pity is at 500 pulls and it doesn't even guarantee a character card it could be a warding card please end it all!!!
also the devs are blocking everyone who criticizes the game on twitter. lol. lmao.
despite all that the story is interesting and i really like the characters especially these 2 guys i love the "medic who definitely shouldn't be a medic because they are Extremely Off and have committed medical malpractice atleast 10 times" type of characters they are always my favorite
damn you "bad gacha game that makes me have to resort to watching youtube videos of the story because i don't wanna support monetarily it in any possible way and go through the pain it brings by actually playing it".... you have won once again
#i am extremely disappointed#all those years and for what#tokyo debunker#otome#otome game#josei muke

The Heathers + Veronica and Love
This is a remake of one of my older posts, "Headcannons part 69420", updated with more stuff and more elaboration
Heather Chandler:
Chandler's love language (giving) is acts of service
She is always doing something for her wives, wether that be making them a little extra treat when she goes to make dinner or taking them to their favorite places on a whim or even preparing a nice bath for them when she knows they've had a hard day at work
By her own admission she isn't the best with words
She's brash and often rude and has a hard time vocalizing her thoughts, the inability to do so causing her much frustration
Why can't she just tell them how much she cares for them, how much she needs them, why is it so hard?
It actually caused her to start to fear that they would think she was ungrateful or even that she hated them, but after opening up to them about it she was reassured that of course they didn't think she hated them, they all had different ways of showing love and that it was ok that she didn't outwardly show it
Despite this, Chandler still feels the need to put in more effort into showing her affections but also that what she does is never enough
As a stay-at-home wife she has plenty of free time on her hands, and with that time she will try and think of something nice she could do for her wives
Sometimes its just as simple as her spotting something one of them would like at the store and picking it up for them
Other times she goes more out
For example, for a whole week Duke had been dreading a meeting with some agency which would determine what happened to one of her kids, stressing about it to the point of tears
So that day when she came home, Chandler had prepared her favorite dish (with a huge chocolate cake, Chandler knows her green-clad wife is a monster for that shit), went out to get some high end bath bombs, and even got Mac and Veronica to come home early to help comfort her incase things went poorly
Thankfully they didn't, but Duke spent the whole night teasing Chandler about how soft she's gotten
She tried to refute it but it was of no use, she was blushing heavily
The only thing she won't do for her wives is intentionally lose at a game
Despite her ego deflating since high school ended, the pride still remains, and Chandler physically cannot force herself to lose even if it would make one of her wives feel better
Her love language (receiving) is words of affirmation
Its amazing how a few words from her wives can soothe all of her worries
Maybe its because of how bad she is with words, but just hearing an "its ok" or "I love you" sets her mind at ease
It lets her know that her efforts appreciated, but also does so in a direct way
Despite being the HBIC for years and dealing with all the interactions that entailed Chandler is hilariously bad at gauging how someone is feeling
She's used to just intimidating people into doing her bidding, but she obviously can't do that with the people she loves
By having it told straight to her that she is loved and needed and that she's done a good job she can understands how they are feeling without any doubt
She also has a massive praise kink
Veronica once called her a "good girl" and Chandler's face was as red as her blazer for the rest of the day
Now when one of them wants to mess with her they'll whisper "good girl" into her ear and watch her blush furiously
Every Saturday the four of them will have date night
They don't always go out as a whole polycule, what they do is follow a schedule
For the first 3 weekends of the month they will have two 1 on 1 dates, and on the fourth week the 4 of them will go out
For example, Week 1 is Chansaw and McDuke
Week 2 is Chandlamara and Dukesaw
Week 3 is Chanduke and Mcnamaywer
Week 4 is the whole polycule
This way they can all have a day to spend quality time with each of their wives
They also follow a schedule within it for who sets up the date
For example in Week 1, one month Chandler and Mac will choose what they do for their date, the next month Veronica and Duke, and so on
The same applies to their group date as well
When it's Chandler's turn to choose, she prefers classic date ideas
Call her old-fashioned, but she loves the cheesey romance
Of course she loves getting dolled up and nice and pretty, plus she also gets to help her wives pick out something that'll match
If she's not with Mac she'll go to a fancy restaurant and order some wine and just talk and enjoy being with her wife
And she pulls out all the stops for this, getting the best table, candles, expensive wine, nothing is too good for her wives
Plus its nice not to have to cook for a change, even though she does enjoy doing it
With Mac things are a little different
The fancy restaurants she enjoys going to don't have things that Mac would eat on their menu and she would hate to see her just sit there while she ate, so instead they do another date night classic, going to the movies
They don't get as dressed up, presenting a fun challenge to Chandler as she tries to find something that looks nice but also low-key enough to justify wearing to the movie theater
Her and Mac get a huge tub of popcorn to share that they never eat more than a third of
Thankfully they both like their popcorn the same way, smothered in butter
The first time Veronica went with the Heathers to a movie and saw the sheer amount of butter they were putting on their popcorn she became very concerned for their cholesterol levels
Duke gets her own little kiddy popcorn bc she cannot stand having that much butter
Chandler will get a Diet Coke, Mac a Sprite, plus they share some candy
As for the movie, they'll usually go see a comedy or some kind of animated movie
Neither of them are a fan of action, most romance movies are too heteronormative, historical films are too boring, and horror is a big no-go, so comedy is an easy choice
They usually sit at the very back of the theater and cuddle
Heather Duke:
Duke's love language (giving and receving) is quality time
Its a win-win situation, she loves spending time with her wives and they love spending time with her
Out of the four of them she spends the least amount of time at home
Her job can have long hours, and she's often the first to leave in the morning and the last to come home in the evening
As such, when she comes home she is antsy to see her wives
Often as soon as she comes through the door she'll make a beeline to wherever they are (usually the couch) and just collapse into a cuddle pile
And don't get her wrong she loves her job, it can just be stressful sometimes and the long hours get to her sometimes
Its nice to come home and just exist with people who care about her
She's also the one who came up with their weekly game night
Duke thought it would be fun to do something outside their normal routine, but also something the four of them could do together
She loves just being around them, but she also wants to actively do things with them
That culminated when one day when going through Mac's things she found her old Wii, the discovery of which saw Mac launch into story after story about her and Chandler playing on it when they were kids, and all of the times she was a sore loser when she managed to beat her
Chandler: "I AM NOT A SORE LOSER HEATHER"
Mac: "Sorry honey, but you are the biggest sore loser there is"
Chandler: "AM NOT"
Mac: "You got so angry when I beat you at Wii Bowling that you broke my Princess Peach remote"
Chandler: "We were kids, you know how kids are when they don't get what they want"
Duke: (To Veronica) "She was 17, I was there, Mac started crying and I had to comfort her"
That gave Duke the idea of them all playing it together
Surprisingly they all played, so they plugged in the Wii and started playing
Chandler's sore loserness became readily apparent when Veronica began dominating at Mario Party
She may have targeted Chandler at every oppurtunity, but that still didn't justify her throwing the remote into the wall
They don't only play video games, sometimes they'll do board games
One time they tried to play Monopoly
That somehow ended with Chandler setting the fucking board on fire
They stay away from extremely competitive games after that
Really, Duke just likes to hear the others laugh
Hearing them cheer or giggle whenever they come ahead in a game fills her with happiness
That's part of why she pulls so many pranks, not only is it funny in the moment but it also creates a hilarious memory to look back on and laugh about
As for her choices on date night, Duke prefers to go shopping
A weird choice for a date, but its what she wants to do
She takes each of her wives to a different place to accommodate for their tastes
With Chandler, they'll usually go to a boutique
They'll go in, browse the new selection, and maybe pick up a few new things
Really its just an opportunity to see the other dressed up all fancy and sexy
With Mac, they'll go a bit farther outside Sherwood to some speciality shops that have a bit more variety than what they can get in their small town
These shops get Japanese imports of Pokemon merch, something Mac goes crazy over
She's become very friendly with the owners, and they've even helped her place orders for some of the more limited and hard to find collectibles
With Veronica, they'll go everywhere
The girl loves to shop
They often spend an hour or more in the LEGO store with Veronica debating which stupidly expensive piece of plastic to get today
They'll go looking for the newly released funko pops, to the bookstore, to Gamestop so she can fuel her addiction I mean get more Pokemon Cards
They don't come back without the Jeep being full of random crap
But the dates aren't about the shopping, its just something to do while they talk
While driving or browsing or waiting to check out, Duke will take the time to just talk to her wives about whatever really
Its a nice opportunity to just catch up or geek out about a show they were watching or a book they've been reading or anything and everything in between
With her job she can't spend as much time with her wives as she would like, especially not one-on-one time, and this is a nice way for her to keep up with what's going on in their lives
Heather McNamara:
Her love language (giving and receiving) is physical touch
Mac fucking loves physical contact with her wives
She is pretty much touching at least one of them 24/7
Wether that be holding hands, cuddling on the couch, or even just touching legs under the table
Whenever the are sitting she'll scoot her chair or herself over to where her and one of the others are touching
Its really calming for her, whenever they touch she feels a lot more grounded and in the moment
This is important for when she has a meltdown, she needs that feeling to help bring her down from the hysteria and back to reality
Her wives know this, so when they see a meltdown coming or one in progress they know to give her a big hug and hold her tight
This doesn't means she likes to touch everyone however
Mac is really only ok with physical contact with her wives and her dad, if anyone else tries to she starts to freak out
One time JD gave her a pat on the back and she started to have a meltdown, she wasn't expecting to get touched at that moment and she was getting touched by someone who wasn't on her list of ok people
She also will avoid touching other people
She refuses to shake hands or give hi-fives or anything of the sort
Whenever a store clerk hands her a bag she makes sure their hands do not touch during the exchange
This does not apply to animals, if there is a creature she will pet it and she doesn't mind dogs jumping up on her or cats coming sit in her lap
Her favorite thing in the world is being in the middle when they go to bed
They bough a 4-person Alaskan King bed when they first moved in together and it took them a while to figure out the best way to sleep comfortably
Eventually they settled on having Chandler on one end, then Mac, then Duke, then Veronica
Mac absolutely insisted on being in the middle, because it would mean that she gets cuddled by two people every night
She sleep the best whenever she's held tight by her wives
Surprisingly she's not always the little spoon, most nights she is big spooning Duke while Chandler is her big spoon
She's also big on hand holding
If they go anywhere she's holding hands with at least one of them, preferably two
She laments that she doesn't have 3 hands so she can't hold hands with all of them at the same time
If she's having a bad day she'll hold onto someone's arm and rest her head on their shoulder, usually Chandler's
Its a habit she picked up from when she was young, whenever bullies would harass her she would do that to Chandler in hopes that it would help protect her
And you already know she gives out plenty of kisses
Its constant with her
Whoever is sitting next to her on the couch usually ends up getting peppered with kisses
Some would call her clingy, and to be honest she kind of is, but its not a "if I'm not touching my wives i'm going to have a panic attack", its a "I like to be touching at least one of my wives if able to do so"
For her dates, Mac likes to have fun
She can tolerate the occasional traditional date at a fancy restaurant, but most of the time she finds it to be too stuffy and uncomfortable
She instead likes to be out doing something where she can just enjoy herself and not worry about having to be fancy or follow some unspoken rules of etiquette
She'll take her wives out bowling (if not with Chandler, she wants to enjoy her date and not get kicked out after Chandler breaks something bc she got another gutter ball), or to the carnival if that's in town, or even to the zoo or aquarium
Admittedly the last two are more for her than her wives, but she justifies it saying that it's the zoo, everyone likes the zoo
Whenever the Renaissance Festival comes to Ohio she'll take Duke and Veronica on their weeks
Chandler complained about it being in the woods and bugs and snakes and mud and the others knew that she wouldn't have a good time
They'll dress up as witches and go around the fair, watching shows and throwing tomatoes at the guy who insults you
If she's looking for something a bit more low-energy, she might go see a movie or go take a walk in the park or even stay at home and play some games
When they go to the park she likes to feed the ducks
Problem is that the ducks now recognize her and swarm whenever they see her entering the park, looking for food
Duke, who she was with at the time, took a picture of Mac surrounded by about 20 ducks all looking expectantly at her and send it to the other two with the caption "Duck Lord"
The point is that she wants to be out and doing things
Dates are supposed to be fun and exciting and a chance to enjoy life with the people you love, and she embodies that with her choices
Veronica Sawyer:
Veronica's love language (giving) is words of affection
Unlike her wives she is very good with her words, something which she uses to her advantage
Veronica felt like there wasn't much she can do for them to show them how much she loved them
I mean, what can she do for the girls who have everything
She thought about just telling them, but that didn't feel good enough
After some internal deliberation, trying and failing to come up with some grand extravagant way to show her thankfulness, she settled on using her strengths and just saying thank you and that she loved them
To her shock, the Heathers were very receptive to this
She was worried that it wouldn't be enough, that they would think she was being cheap or unthoughtful or even unthankful, but they were really touched by what she had to say
She later found out that the Heathers, especially Duke and Chandler, had very rarely been told "I love you" making it mean more to them
After learning that, she makes sure that she tells each of them that she loves them at least once a day
Usually its closer to about 20 times a day but its at least 1 so it counts
She still feels like its not enough, buts its less of an omnipresent dread like it was
Whenever one of them has a bad day and wants to talk about it she's the one they turn to, because she's the best at listening and being able to reassure them that everything is going to be alright
Her love language (receiving) is receiving gifts
You should've seen this one coming
Veronica loves shopping, so its only natural that she loves it when her wives buy things for her
Besides the whole "I got thing I wanted", it makes her feel loved to know that her wives went out of their way to find something she would like, or saw something and thought about her and bought it, or even made something for her
Veronica wasn't very wealthy growing up, so getting a gift was an extra special treat for her, and even now that she's at a point where money will never be a concern for her she's never dropped the feeling of gifts being a special thing
The Heathers are more than willing to spoil her tho
She often comes home to a new book from Duke or some kind of collectible from Mac or a treat from Chandler, and the smile she gets is infectious
For her dates Veronica prefers something a little more relaxed
She agrees with Mac on the principle that dates shouldn't be about getting all fancy and that kind of stuff, but she also doesn't think they need to be about doing things
She really just wants to spend time with her wives
Thats why for her dates, she tries to introduce them to things she enjoys
The big one is anime
With Chandler, Veronica deduced that she would like mystery anime, for example Death Note, or something that managed to infiltrate her walls and hit her right in the feels, like Violet Evergarden
On the day they watched the later they cried so much that when Duke and Mac got home they thought somebody had died and became really concerned
With Duke, Veronica thought she would enjoy action anime, so they watched things like Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia
After watching the former Duke tried to get them to go as the Hashira for Comic Con but Chandler refused
With Mac, she knew that she would like cute fluffy yuri romance, such as I'm In love with the Villainess
Out of all of them Mac got the most into what Veronica showed her, and they even started finding new series to watch together
Chandler pretended to try and hate it but Veronica walked in on her reading yaoi Light/L fanfiction one day and she could no longer deny that she enjoyed it
She also tried to introduce them into her LEGO hobby (addiction) but none of them really got the appeal, Chandler complaining that she could step on the tiny pieces or one of their pets could eat them
And they all absolutely refused to get sucked into her Pokemon card addiction, even Mac who loves Pokemon wouldn't touch it after seeing how Veronica is with them
And Just a little bonus
Kids:
The Kid talk was something that the Heathers thought they didn't need to have
The three of them all agreed a long time ago that they didn't want kids, and they thought that they had had that talk with Veronica or mentioned it sometime and knew their opinion
But one day after their wedding Veronica brought up the subject, causing the three of them to get really confused
It turned out that Veronica wanted kids, and what followed was a deeply uncomfortable conversation for everyone
The Heathers quickly explained that they thought, no, they knew they would be terrible parents and had mountains of issues that they had a hard time dealing with and it wouldn't be right to bring a child into this world knowing that they would have parents who could barely take care of themselves, much less a child
Plus look at them, they were four women all married to each other in the middle of a very conservative part of Ohio, their hypothetical child would be harassed because of something they couldn't even control
And how would they even have the kid? They're all cis women so they can't have one in the normal way, they don't know any cis men who they would trust to do this, and even if they did IVF which one of them would carry the child?
Veronica tried to interject saying they could adopt, but Duke quickly replied, asking what agency would give a child to any of them
In the eyes of the law they are all single women with documented mental illnesses, someone would get fired for even suggesting to adopt to them
That realization hit Veronica like a truck and she told them that she was going for a walk, ignoring the calls for her to stay and how they could talk this out
She quickly found herself at 7/11, JD's habit of freezing your brain had really stuck with her
And who else should be there but the slush king himself, greeting Veronica with the usual 'Greetings and Salutations' before noticing the blank look on her face
JD paid for her slushie and took her outside to their usual talking spot
Veronica muttered, asking him if he just lived here or something
JD responded that he actually kinda did, he got a loan from Chandler to buy out this franchise meaning that he owns and manages this 7/11
She gives a small chuckle but hearing the name of one of her wives cuts it short
JD tells her that he knows something is up and that she has to talk about it, keeping shit in only makes it worse
She responded in a curt tone that the Heathers don't want kids
JD quickly picked up what was going on but could only say oh before taking another sip of his slushie
A few minutes pass by before JD speaks up again, asking her what she was going to do about this
Veronica gave a small I don't know before JD told her that she has two options here
One, she divorces the Heathers and tries to find someone who does want kids and she's compatible with
Veronica is quickly taken aback by this suggestion, saying that she doesn't want to do that
He then gives her the second option, learn to live with it
He says that there's no compromise that can be made here, and it doesn't look like they're gonna budge on it
She needs to choose which is more important to her, them or kids
If she chooses kids then she'll always be unhappy with the Heathers and at that point it would be better just to get a divorce
But if she chooses them she's gonna have to deal with the knowledge that she won't be able to have kids, and if she chooses that she can't have the idea that she could convince their minds, because he knows the Heathers and he knows that once they've set their mind on something its near impossible to change it
He goes on to say that its a hard decision and not one to take lightly and it sucks that she's in this situation, the four of them probably should've talked about this before getting married, but she's in it now and there's nothing anyone can do about it
Veronica then sighs and starts to think about it, but the choice is clear
She loves the Heathers more than anything or anyone, and thinking about it she knew they were right, there was no ethical way for them to have a child in their lives, not with the kind of lifestyle they had and in the area they lived in
Kids are just not on the cards for her
The realization hurts, and she sits on that curb and cries, mourning the child that she knows she will never have
Once she finishes crying, she actually feels better about the situation
It occurs to her that she never really thought about kids until the wedding, mostly because most people she knew had kids after their wedding, so was there ever any real desire to have kids or was she just conforming to societal norms about life?
Thinking about it she knew she did want kids, but it wasn't an end-all be-all and she realized that she could live a life without a kid, but she couldn't live one without the Heathers
Plus getting pregnant sounded like it sucked, and she would probably be the one who had to carry the child, Chandler keeps the house running and it would fall apart without her supervision and Duke and Mac both have jobs, while she could work from bed if she had to
Maybe she's just coping with a sucky situation, but above all else she knew that she would choose the Heathers over a kid 100% of the time, she would just have to live with that choice
And in all honesty, she knew she would be all right, she just needed some time
I would like to thank y'all for reading and liking/reblogging/whatevering my stuff, I've noticed an uptick in those things recently and I wanted to let y'all know I appreciate every single one of you. I write these things with the hope that someone out there will enjoy it, so whenever I see a like or whatever I know that I've done what I set out to do

This may be a dumb question and I’m gonna guess the answer is no because you run a fandom account lol, but does working behind the scenes of Sunny ruin the “magic” of it? I hope this makes sense lol
iv sort of answered this b4 but n a way i think it truly REVIVED the magic for me
if i worked on seasons from the iasip golden era id probs feel differently, and i lamented many many times over the years that i thought i could never work on sunny without ruining it for myself, but w th way th cards fell, i was already kind of on my way out of my hyperfixation on sunny by th time i got th job
i didnt love s13 and then s14 was v much like the final nail n th coffin nd my enjoyment rly faltered there, some stuff i liked but by n large i was like 'ok sunnys kind of over for me.'
before s13 it was more 'i love this season, except for 1 or 2 episodes" and after it became "i dont like this season, except for 1 or 2 episodes"
then, out of the blue getting to work on s15, even tho its still not one of my fave seasons, brought my love back in a completely new way. being able to interact with the cast and crew is magical on its own, and theres a level of pride that cuts through i guess? like 'yeah i remember this day. this day was hard. and now theres an entire episode out! and people liked it!'
theres also a disconnect with what i see happen at work and what actually airs. there are moments, sure, where i suddenly realize i know whats going to happen, but by and large im just as surprised as anyone else by the direction they take the editing. i also like to avoid reading the scripts we get and just let myself be confused. i truly still get to see episodes for the first time like you guys and i still get excited to find out wtf theyr about to do, its not unlike piecing together things seen in promos
like idk, @ th end of the day, everyone is just so nice, and ive met some of my literal favorite people on this earth on that job, and seeing the care and love that goes into what they're doing is an unmatched experience of my life and made me rly appreciate the show even more. rcg and the rest of the cast have all been so welcoming to me, and i love my camera team and th whole crew so much and cant believe how well we get on....im incredibly lucky
#ask#anon#ramblings#id also honestly say i dont think th hyperfixation rly came bck nto full swing until after s16 was over#like ill never let sunny go even if im not as crazy abt it so i was still posting#but i wasnt th way i was n 2016#and im sort of hitting that again now....#i think i interact with everything differently now and mostly focus on th sunny n my headspace#which is a lot of why i draw them as kids so much cuz im just constantly building out their childhoods nd their lives that we arnt privvy 2#but i dunno we'll see how they do s17 maybe ill get crazy abt current sunny again

Thoughts on Indigo park chapter 1
Spoiler warning under the cut!
Alright guys so today I played Indigo park chapter 1 with my friend @theroseofazrael. And I wanted to give my thoughts on it along the way basically! Warning again spoilers for chapter 1!
Right of the bat I wanna say that this is coming from somone who watched it first and someone who played it after. So you could say I have at least 2 things to go off by
Putting this in multiple parts
Part 1: entrance
So the beginning. first of all intro cutscene was really well made and amazing to look at! Getting right put into the game, meeting Rambly for the first time was nice! (Also fun fact I did the math around the 2920 days guest absents and it's 8 years!) I liked him alot! He is cute and sweet! Love his animations and I hope he doesn't turn out evil (or at least not the AI) So we open the door with a simple puzzle and I am glad it is really just like a kind of walking simulator! Going in we are getting our critter cuff, and I was so sure in the playthrough I watched that there was one of the mascots inside the shop!
with the critter cuff around our wrist we now walk into the park and when I first saw the statue I immediatly thought "Is this a disney reference"! I liked it! going throught the tunnel and it collapses behind us. I would say I actually kinda liked that! I find it sometimes a bit more realistic if something old collapses right behind someone than it already having collapsed! Also the tunnel kinda reminded me a bit of a tunnel from my favorite theme park which I found funny!
also on a side note: I love how Rambly still tries to make this abandoned theme park sound more like that it is under construction. Deniel is a river in egypt!
part 2: The train ride
While it still plays a bit in the tunnel I put it with the train ride! Walking through the que line really helps the feeling of This was really a theme park! And while I didn't see it on my playthrough (at least I think I missed it) on SHB I saw like the tail feathers of Mollie already giving an uneasy feeling but was also a bit foreshadowing in a sense. Anyways when I was in the call with my friend, Rambly told me I would be too old for this ride and I literally said "well fuck you then". This was also still at the time where I did not realize Azra was not watching my stream, because my game crashed at the beginning and I booted it up again but forgot to stream it at the time (I honestly believe it has nothing to do with the game and more about me having too much stuff open at the time!)
Anyways we load up onto the train and off we go on our first ride! This was a very sweet introduction to the cast, and felt natural for a theme park! Meeting Mollie first I loved that introduction. I like her opimistic character as they talked (which I found also really cool that Rambly interacted with the cast during the ride!) What I didn't noticed until a bit later, down there was a door where you could see Mollie "spying" on us! I just saw how the door closed but it gave me the impression that she stalked us during the entire ride or she was like "looking around" and basically found out there is someone!
Then we get to Finleys underwater space and the entire time I was looking around if I could find Mollie somewhere again (I unfortunatley didn't see her anywhere). But then Finley say "you know me for 100 years" and Imma get this right off the bat, Mollie later on says this! I go deeper in this later on!
Then we get to a really destroyed place which thinking about it is weird! Every other place was ok looking, almost in tip top shape but this one was quiet literally ruined! It is open for alot of theories I believe, since this one was probably Salems place! it is up to you guys what this was! So off we go to repair the electricity finding a Mollie animatronic! It says one last thing about Rambly hurt Llloyd! Now this one gives me the impression that Rambly is more evil but also later on with Lloyd there is a scene that plays out. And I believe that there is more to the cuff/ the system in the park than we thought
Anyways we boot up the train again and carrie on! Next and last one is Lloyd. Here we see the first time the total distaste for Lloyd from our Raccoon! now considering how Rambly and Lloyd interact, this might be just his AI programm but throught the game, expecially the collectables, it is more to believe that this dislike isn't really programmed! So maybe that part, wasn't meant to be in a annoyed way? only time will tell! But also I knew this one from tik tok but at the end of this interaction, looking to the left shows Mollie like literally by our side coming from the courtains! I will talk about a thought when we get there!
Going out we are at the gift shop of the ride. And here I noticed that in one of the cameras we can see Molluie running after the train! We see multiple empty trains in those photos and then one in the middle with Mollie running! I believe that would have been our photo! considering all other photos are empty seats, it makes the most sense. And with mollie always popping up during the ride now and then! Now this one is more a theorie but I imagine that this photo was taken during Salems part! Maybe Mollie was chasing us, the train was just faster, and when it broke down and we went out to fix it, maybe she caught up! Then she saw we weren't there and maybe thought we ran ahead? this is really just what I have thought about this than really being a theory! Anyways i was pointing the picture out to Azra and here I noticed how stupid I was
I noticed after they told me, there was no stream, that I forgot to stream it! These entire first minutes, they did not see what I saw while I stupidly pointed out things you can only see! oTL anyways moving on to part 3!
part 3: the central area and Lloyds theater
Putting these 2 together cause I find them rather short in a way! First of going down the stairs and seeing the entire area + working and I believe opperating ferris wheel! I told to Azra that as a kid or even now that I would have gone there! I just hope they also have rollercoaster tbh! I like the adrenalin! I found the fountain actually really funny, being able to rotate like this while spitting water! Noone was save against the water! we also get to the information kiosk and to the collectables! I found it nice that we got more info about them through Rambley and expecially through our protagonist which there is one thing!
At the beginning Rambly tells us that we are a new comer/ are not in the guest data base, but looking at the descriptions it is made very clear we were in this park multiple times! I believe either, children weren't like allowed to be in the guest data base because well they were children! or because we aged and with age faces change, the face recognition didn't pick up on us!
And another thing. As I said before Rambly seems to really dislike Lloyd and with the plushies, expecially the last one we get (and old cartoon version of Lloyd) it says that Lloyd was the most popular one apperantly! or at least the company was more focused on the Lion than the Raccoon! So I believe the resentment shows that Rambly is a bit more sentient than it looks like!
Moving on, Rambly wants to bring us to the Jetstream junction but unfortunatly we need a key! And that key was in Lloyds theater. getting acess to it, we go inside! seeing the theater was really pretty! and on stage we see a sleeping Lloyd who wakes up and running away. now I wanna adress that because I feel like that they aren't really out to hurt us! after the key and getting through the section (where even if I know nothing would happen, I still anticipated it) only then when we tried to go, did he really came close enough to grab us! and that one time in the middle where he was squished under a box! And honestly i think it was also because he was like put into a croner and didn't see another way!
Here is also a funny thing because technically speaking you can get this anytime when you turn around away from the backstage area we see again Mollie! Some had it at the beginning I had it after the area and honestly I feel like it is more impactful when it is after the area!Anyways we got the key and off to Mollies place!
part 4: Jetstream junction
Now this place was really fun! We go up to rooftop racing adn are greeted with rumble having fallen onto the ride destroying it! Now I felt it was unfair we only get to ride one thing so far in the entire park! Anyways we go downstairs again and to the landing pad! or rather we should go there but off to the side is a little drinking area with an arcade machine! We can play it and it is a typical oldschool platformer! This is also where we meet Salem for the first time basically! Many also belive that this has more story relevence than it looks like. Also we get like a pixalated Ramblyberry but I think that is more an easter egg than it being exactly "canon".
Anyways we now enter the landing pad which is like a really REALLY big playground area! and we got a interesting puzzle here! simple to understand. We have blocks and need to figure out the the right combination! Easy to understand thanks to the purple block and the purple star besides it! So power goes out and we walk through the entire playground, finding all shapes and the colors to it! And guess what Mollie is with us! She is often very cose to us but never really attacks us! until after we solved the puzzle! We get our first chase in the game and the only one in chapter 1!
I died only 2 times! first time I was not expecting her to come from the front and second time I didn't knew where to jump! but overall I liked the chase! it was easy to follow and had only one moment that I thought "ARE YOU FUCKING ME?! an it is the collectable during the chase! it's not hard to see but dang I held to step back one time to get it and my adrenaline was so high holy shit!
And the ending was wow. So like I felt like with the head off it felt different than I saw on SHB. Maybe it was becuase of the pure adrenaline but I felt like they fixed the timing of when it happens! Cause with Mike I felt like the timing of the head or the distance of the jump too was weird! but maybe it was always like this. And during all of this me and Azra just went "damn she is bleeding alot" not exactly listening to Rambly saying anything about the park and stuff! But it does make me wonder what happened to the staff and expecially WHY WAS THERE FRESH LOOKING BLOOD ON BOTH MOLLIE AND LLOYD?!
Anyways we leave and soon make our way to Ocean Odyssey and I notice that is Nordic themed ! (loves it!) and after seeing a big Finley coming out there ends chapter 1!
Finally thoughts
I really enjoyed it! I don't play often horror games... actually rewrite that I never played horror games and this was my first time! gameplay wise, there were a few nitpicky things but that was their first game and for that alone this deserves a major Star because it is really good! and story wise, it got me hooked! we got enough information for anticipation withouthaving all to much said, only leaving us wondering!
Anyways can't wait for chapter 2 and see ya!

Moose's Guide to Quick and Easy Gold
So I get the vibes in the community here that a bunch of people don't really know all the tips and tricks to making easy money, so I thought I'd do a writeup on some of the small ways I make gold in Guild wars 2
Trick 1: You have wealth you don't know about
An inportant thing about Gw2 is that a lot of the wealth it gives out isn't in actual gold but in materials that you can then sell for gold. For a lot of people I think its easy to just click 'deposit all materials' and then forget about it. For me personally I have only 100 gold in my wallet but If I were to empty out my material storage I'd gain an additional 300 or so gold. The site GW2 efficiency is really helpful for telling you what high value items you might be holding on to, though It takes a bit of setting up.
Trick 2: Sell Orders!
Admittedly this is something I'm bad about, but if you can delay your gratification, but when you sell something don't fulfill someone elses buy order and instead, set up a sell order. I'll give you up to 10% more gold out of everything you sell
Ok now onto the acutal wealth generation methods
Trick 3: Send your least favorite character to the New Kaineng Jumping Puzzle
Jumping Puzzles in EoD reward jade runestones from their final chest, which go for 80 silver on the trading post.
Find the wiki page to get you through the jumping puzzle here, though there are often commanders on the New Kaineng lfg offering teleport to friend transport to the end of the puzzle. Basically you get a character to the end chest and every reset log in on that character and get your free! runestone, almost a gold for ~30 seconds of work
(as a note you only get the runestone once per day per account so don't send multiple characters there)
Trick 4: Leivas Hands out Gold, make sure to collect it
Ok not actually but he may as well. So this guy who hangs out in Arborstone, once you've gotten the Globalization mastery, will sell you 5 antique summoning stones every week for a grand total of 10 green prophet shards, 10 unusual coins, 100 imperial favours, 7000 karma and 1 gold. The summoning stones can then be sold on for ~3 gold each, netting you a profit of 14 gold for going up to an npc and pressing 'f' (or whatever your interact key is)
Trick 5: fast and profitable metas you should be doing daily
Let me introduce you to my favorite wiki page:
the event timers list
This lists out every meta event and world boss that'll be happening soon and all of them will give you at least something, and the meta's from HoT onwards awards you a hero's choice chest that'll contain at least one of these valuable materials to choose from: amalgamated gemstone (60 silver), jade runestone (80 silver), ancient ambergris (1 gold 70 silver) or an antique summoning stone (3 gold). It should be noted the last 3 only appear in the EoD meta's, for all other times choose the amalgamated gemstone.
With that aside there are 3 events in particular that you should try to get done that'll take 10 minutes or less
first up is the Legendary Ley-Line Anomaly, the naked man. The timer's page tells you which zone it'll spawn in and when it does you have to seek it out and murder it. Mounts are very recommended because this thing dies fast. Anyway when you kill it, it drops 2 things: a mystic coin (1 gold 20 silver) and some vendor trash worth 50 silver, pretty gold for 5 minutes of work
next is Dragonstorm. It happens once every 2 hours starting from the eye of the north and affords you the opportunity to beat up Ryland. If you join the public option you join a crowd of up to 50 other people and its easy enough that you could even afk if you wanted (though that would be very rude). Anyway once you murder the champions and blast the dragons you get to watch them share a passionate kiss as the die and you then get 2 gold straight up, 6 memories of aurene (worth 1.5 gold in total) as well as a chance to win the lottery and get ascended weapons or, even rarer, the very expensive eye infusions
Finally is Tequatl the Sunless, a world boss in Sparkfly Fen that awards you 1 gold straight up as well as a chance at an ascended weapon as well as a bunch of materials and unidentified gear
speaking of which all the other events give unidentified gear too and they aren't actually terrible rewards, you can get a pretty penny from selling them.
Trick 6: Daily Rewards
Firstly, just logging in every day gives you a sadly decent amount of income, mostly in laurels and mystic coins. Coins can just be sold if you're after cold, laurels can be spent on a variety of stuff. And if you're looking to turn a profit, HERE are the best ways to do so.
Also, do your daily achievements people, sometimes they're a pain but the daily completionist gives 2 gold as well as 15 achievement points, more than most other achievements in the game. Also they drive you towards content you wouldn't do otherwise (the daily achievements are the reason why I've done most of the jumping puzzles). Also If you're bad at any of the dailies on offer, usually a bunch of other people are also trying to do dailies and they're often willing to help. I see mesmers porting people through the daily JPs all the time.
Trick 7: Spirit shards can be converted to Gold???
I admit, this isn't something I do myself but if you're accumulating spirit shards like I am there are methods to turn them into gold
They're listed HERE
(again, this isn't something I've tried myself, I can't vouch for how well it works and all the methods require a starting amount of gold. But if you're desperate it might be something to consider
But I want more Gold, how do I get it?
If your looking for serious gold farming there are probably better guides than this but here are a few pointers to start raking in the money
1: As far as I understand, Drizzlewood Coast is the most profitable activity in the game, gold per hour wise. Runs take a while and you kind of have to pay attention to maximise gains but, if gold's what you want this is a good option.
2: Look for meta trains, I notice them happening a lot around reset, basically its a group that goes from meta to meta doing them in sequence. There are a few guilds that do them every day so if you see a train, chances are its on at the same time every day. I find them to be pretty chill, offer some nice variety in content and offer good rewards as well.
3: Fractals. Yeah I know this is getting into endgame content but doing T4 fractal dailies every day gives you around 20 gold straight up, a bunch of materials worth even more gold and a decent chance at ascended armor and weapons (and so many ascended trinkets, seriously at this point they get auto-salvaged if they drop)
Apart from that, pretty much everything in this game gives you some amount of rewards, even if they aren't entirely obvious, so don't stress too much, provided you aren't roleplaying in the serrated blade or whatever (Though good on you for having fun!) you're likely earning some amount of income. Even if it's only in materials
#gw2#guild wars 2#gw2 gold farming#There are better guides scattered throughout the internet#searching up 'Gw2 best ways to make gold' will probably yield results#though make sure to choose recent results to avoid outdated guides#but dammit I wanted to write something down myself#so I did. Enjoy#If you have any other tricks feel free to let me know

Season 2- Voltron Rewatch
I absolutely binged this season in two days, I feel like I’m injecting this show into my veins. I was sewing though, I was being productive while I watched it.
Anyway this season was a lot better than season 1, there still is the pacing problem which I feel will continue cause just how short the seasons are. 7 eps I saw is one season…Again bring back 20 eps seasons!!!! This season was such a Keith and Shiro season which is fine because I like them alot. They both get more fleshed out more and feel like a well rounded character. Allura as well gets some character growth which I’ll get into in a second. From the first episode I already liked the season more. We see Keith and Shiro actually act like siblings in the way they interact with each other which in contrast in the first season we got a hug in the first ep and that’s that. It’s nice to actually show that they have a closer relationship with each other than anyone else in the group. Like in the last ep everyone is running to the hanger to see if Shiro is ok and Keith is the one running the fastest looking the most concerned. It’s little stuff like that actually makes me go yeah their brothers.
Space Mall and The Blade Marmora were my favorites this season. Space Mall being a more chill romp where there was not a life threatening event happening. I though the B and C plot where also fun. Shiro connecting with the Black Lion and Allura doing silly stuff with the mice.
I also really like this one random characters design, like it’s such a cute design. The Blade of Marmora was the Keith ep, him learning who he truly is. He’s willing to put his life on the line to know the secrets the Blade was withholding. Keith and Shiro are my favorite to watch fight so an ep where Keith is fighting for the most of it is an A+
They do this thing towards the end of the season where they recap the last two seasons. They act as if it’s been a longtime and as a viewer I felt not a lot of time past because of how quick the show is. Shiro is like yeah we won’t need Voltron anymore and it’s kinda stupid because from what I’ve seen they haven’t been doing the whole the saving the universe thing very long. I
The last ep was just fighting and that’s fine, I’m watching show about a giant mech I wanna watch them fight in that mech. So when Zarkon uses a mech as well, it was great because again I’m a sucker for mech fights. Also the animation really popped off during the fight. I was devastated when Thace died cause I don’t know why but I really liked him for like his zero screentime.
Characters
Shiro: Again like I said, he feels more fleshed out this season. I enjoy seeing him not being like just the serious leader, but also caring and brotherly. Not just with Keith but we him be a brother like figure to Pidge. He also loses cool with Slav, snapping at him. It’s funny and again just shows more of him. One thing I didn’t say about him in the first season is I don’t get Shiro’s hair. Like why is there just a tuff of long hair and then the rest is super short. I might be missing something but I just don’t get it.
Hunk: Not a lot changes with his character this season, he becomes more of a comedic relief character which in my opinion isn’t bad. Like he isn’t hilarious with some of the stuff he says but it’s not unbearable and most of the one liners are quickly moved on from. I like in Space Mall, we see him take charge of the kitchen. I like that his thing is that he like to cook, it’s cute.
Pidge: Her character again feels the same, she gets her moments to shine and forms a deeper connection with her lion. Her whole thing is she is a tech nerd but it’s done not in an annoying way where she has an ego or anything. With Pidge we are still following her as she tries to find her brother, I’m excited to rewatch it as it unfolds.
Coran: he’s still silly and goofy. I do really like we get to see him be more of a fatherly figure to Allura, which I love those types of dynamics between characters
Allura: I love her! She gets an arc this season that I thought was done well. When Keith gets revealed to be Galra, she of course struggles with that because Galra Empire took everything from her. The way it’s done is that unlike other shows where someone might be like oh you should apologize or talk to him, she just does it on her own. She realizes that she was wrong to judge Keith or think less of him because of who he is and she voices that to him, giving him an explanation on why she acted the way she did but still apologizes. Keith and her hug which was super cute and it reminded me how little I see platonic displays of affection between women and men in media. I love her interactions with the mice, it’s super adorable. She kicks massive ass in the last episode and that was hype, we stan a woman who is can be prim and proper and then kick ass. Gee I hope nothing bad happens to her
Keith: This was his season!!! We got more to his character, instead of just broody guy who can fight, we get someone who is struggling to figure out who they are and finding a place to belong. The reason why I liked this change so much is because it’s an easy thing to relate to and so as the viewer you want him to figure out the piece of himself he missing. Him figuring out he is Galra unlocks the next part of his character arc which he even says which is finding out more about his family. Keith is still reckless and acts about the same as season one but seeing his vulnerability makes him feel like a well rounded character. Seeing his dad was interesting and it showed how important his dad is to him. I was shocked by the southern accent I will say. Like I knew he was from Texas but I did not remember Keith’s dad with a southern accents. They should have given Keith one tbh. I learned that he is not canonically Korean but Keith is canonically Asian just not specified. In my eyes he’ll always be Korean though. Like everyone has a canon ethnicity while his is literally half human half Galra. I just don’t get it.
Lance: I’m waiting….I’m waiting for something to happen with him like he had stayed the exact same from ep 1 of s1 except for in Escape from Beta Traz we see a glimpse of some insecurity. He questions his place in Voltron, he feels he isn’t on par with everyone else. Unless I missed something this is the only time we see him not being well..him since the last when he talks about missing home. His insecurity isn’t even a main focus of the episode it’s so small that it’s “solved” also within the ep. Lance makes a good shot then Shiro praises him. I’m not saying he isn’t still insecure, Lance is insecure I feel would not be a big of a tag on ao3 if this one a one episode sort of thing. But from just watching the episode appears like oop my problems are solved. I’m sure we’ll get plenty of Lance insecurity in the upcoming seasons, or at least I hope. He is funnier this season thankfully, I actually laughed a few times. I wanna make it apparent Lance has been one of my all time favorite characters for years. I just don’t remember much of the show, my perception of him for the last couple years has been all fanon content.
Klance: Very little Klance action this season. Keith and Lance barely interacted except for when they got stuck in elevator. Which was fun, I like their interactions but it was very sparse this season. Everyone was paired up for missions and they never were together. I’m curious what started the craze of them because there is not a whole lot to go off of in the first two seasons. I watched the show as it was coming out but I was pretty young so I didnt have social media till basically the show was ending. So I don’t really know how this ship got so popular so quick, I know some stuff but I don’t know if that all there is to it.
I’m scared to continue only because I know what lies ahead.
#vld#voltron#voltron legendary defender#klance#liz’s voltron rewatch#long post#I wish I wrote this much when it mattered

2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 12, 14, 18, 20, 22 for lotr from the violence ask meme 😈
OK i have answered 2 already but lets do this thing fuck yea (thank uuuuuuuuuu!!!!!)
3) screenshot or description of the worst take you’ve seen on tumblr
look its not really a "take" but the amount of people who just post variations of "I don't like Boromir, he's the worst" IN THE BOROMIR TAG is genuinely insane to me. like have ur (incorrect) opinion but keep it out of the tag worstie
7) what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?
uhhhh no one thank the gods. ive always disliked Denethor Because of canon. but i will say stumbling across the file index of an old LotR fansite + clicking on files w/ no preview only to find graphics thirsting over Denethor did cause massive psychic damage lmao
8) common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about
idk 😭 i dont interact w/ the broader fandom really. i do find the way ppl reduce Pippin to Just a joke character in fanon insufferable tho
9) worst part of canon
BOOK!FARAMIR + HIS MIDDLEMEN SHTICK MY WORSTIE.
also ngl i do find the Aragorn/Arwen romance....... Weird. like I'm far from averse to "love at first sight" so long as it comes with the recognition that it's really more infatuation + true love takes work. and there's the fact Aragorn fell head over heels for an image of Lúthien, and Arwen's heart did not turn towards him until Galadriel dressed him up in elven finery. not to mention she was "not yet weary of her days" when Aragorn dies + has to die "whether I will or I nill" like she. wastes away? slowly alone in Lothlórien.
like idk [Aragorn kinnie voice] that's my sister, man but all that aside I do think.. Arwen deserved better? I like that the movies made her more active + I do wish she'd actually been there at Helm's Deep bc it would've been fun to see her and Éowyn bond but yeah. the vibes were off with that whole situation imho
12) the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them
huh. does Théodred count? i feel like he's kind of a blank slate so fandom can just kinda run wild with him but i do genuinely enjoy writing him + find that there are solid implications for at least a friendship between him + Boromir (if not more). i mean, Boromir got a Rohirric shield from someone
14) that one thing you see in fics all the time
ok th implication here bein its sth that bothers me which thankfully i pretty much only read Aramir or Faramir/Éomer fics soooo theres not much??
i think the only things that RLLY get to me + they aren't THAT popular trope-wise (or ive been rlly good at avoiding them lmao) are fics that 1) make Boromir overly aggressive or 2) completely woobify Faramir
+ tbh the Faramir one bothers me more actually. that is a grown ass man and captain of the rangers of Ithilien.....................
18) it’s absolutely criminal that the fandom has been sleeping on…
HRM. again idk :3 <- blissfully not interacting w the broader fandom + only interacting w/ ppl w correct takes on Boromir + Rohan
(tentatively i need to start following more ppl i see some of yall in my notes + i shld follow. sorry im like a nervous dog u need to coax out from under the porch lol)
20) part of canon you found tedious or boring
side-eyeing my copies of the Histories. i need to finish those. eventually.............
22) your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores
ignores?????? nothing i think (thankfully lmao) but i will say there is SO much detail in the films that it makes me INSANE. ik we literally just talked abt this in DMs lmao but i could sit n talk abt LotR costuming for fucking HOURS the films were SO stunning and the clothing alone reveals sooooooo much abt the characters i think its a super underrated vehicle for character analysis :3

OMG I have a beef with Tom Taylor that he doesn’t know about!
1. He blocked me on Twitter in 2021 and in 2023😭😭😭
2. How he wrote Constantine. He literally took all the stereotypes about bisexuals and combined them in Constantine even though John was one of the few good bisexual representations
3. How he wrote Nightwing. Instead of a cynical and intelligent hero, one of the most complex characters in the universe, his Nightwing became himbo.
4. His series is literally all empty moments. Dick talks about big things all the time, but he never faces any real problems with his choices. All his problems are solved for him, and he himself is a completely passive protagonist.
5. My main problem with his Nightwing is that he should be dead by now. If this is truly Dick's character, he has no sense of self-preservation or healthy cynicism (accepting a glass of water from his enemies or exposing himself to the president).
His planning is shortsighted (should have been killed by Gunhawk and Gunbunny's sniper shot) and not particularly intelligent (summoning Bruce to do his detective work for him), so how is he not dead yet?
6. How he constantly makes Clark insufferable just to make Bruce look better.
7. The way he writes Damian. He constantly makes him act like he's a fucking rabid and wild dog.
8. He has to artificially create conflict. Taylor would rather make Dick, the acrobat, afraid of heights than have actual proper conflict in the stories.
9. How he blocks every single person engaging in good faith criticism of him and pretends like it's all some murderous dick/starfire fan conspiracy. I think half of the fandom is blocked by him.
10. He can’t write my wife starfire for shit Personally, I don’t think Tom Taylor is trying to “ruin” Starfire. I think he (and many other DC Comics writers) don’t understand who she is a character. I think Starfire is a very hard character to write in general due to all the different interpretations of her.
11. His injustice run
12. How he writes my pookie Daredevil🙁 His Matt(AND Tony) feels so bland that you think that it’s not even Matt but some dude with the same name.
But if we thinking about his Nightwing as just a silly and unserious version of Dick, I have no problem with that. I myself spent a fair amount of money on his comics back in the day because I couldn't bring myself to read anything else for a long time. His writing is not bad but it’s not great either. It’s okay I think?
But anyway it’s just my opinion and I might be wrong😅
this is nice bc i basically listened to tidbits and summaries of his nightwing run. i didn’t get a real peek into his character outside of just what happened to him and what he did i guess
1. damn double whammy 😭
2. i know nothing of constantine but i know too much about bi stereotypes
3. i agree that he isn’t all that complex but i like himbo nightwing 🙁 i’m a simple girl i fear.
4. i do see this part though!! i’m not highly critical of plots most of the time but i do notice when it seems vague.
5. “he should be dead by now” alr damn 😔. but i see the issue. he’s been dumbed down and everyone else has to help him do things he should be capable of doing himself
6. this is out of my realm bc i don’t know much about clark’s character anyway. i do want to see more of him though, i’ve been meaning to watch a few of his movies. and NO it is definitely not bc i’m starting to think too much about fucking him !
7. this is also out of my realm bc i don’t know damian’s character. as you interact with me you’ll quickly learn that i only really care about my pookies
8. ok… what.
9. mmm he’s giving barb…
10. atp let me write starfire goddamn !
ok i get this!! gonna start saying bruno redondo’s my favorite nightwing since he’s the artist. ty for filling me in love :))

Corroded Coffin Fest - Day 25 - Gareth
Summary: Gareth takes a stand.
Word Count: 996
Rating: T
Warnings/Themes: Origins, Teen angst, Growing Up, FOI references (Ronnie) but also some non-compliance to FOI (just...gonna skip the painful bits)
Check Out the Main Post for @corrodedcoffinfest here! Even if you didn’t start on Day 1, you can still join!
Tagging: @the-unforgivenn at her request.
You can find my masterlist here.
Please do not interact if you are not 18+.
Enjoy!
No one ever doubted how much the Emersons loved their son.
Especially not Gareth himself.
Their house was practically a shrine to him.
Shit, his parents' lives were dedicated to him.
They were well-off enough that his mom stayed home to take care of him until he started school, and then only worked part-time so she wouldn't get bored.
Meanwhile his dad made sure that he was at every activity and chaperoned every field trip.
There were pictures of him on almost every available wall of the house. Ones from tee ball and cub scouts and kindergarten graduation and the first time his dad took him fishing.
They all showed a happy kid.
Of course, there were also ones where he wasn't happy. Those got tucked into albums.
Ones of him crying or throwing a tantrum.
But there was one particular picture of him at 13, looking incredibly pouty. He had a study date with his crush, Libby Nelson, and his dad had brought a camera to proudly snap a picture of them together.
He was embarrassed enough when his mom ran a comb through his hair a hundred times, and when his dad ironed his shirt for him, and when they asked if he wanted to get flowers.
"We're just working on geography homework," he whined.
But after the picture fiasco, after Libby had laughed at him and he had blamed his parents, he decided enough was enough.
He started picking his own outfits to school to wear to school. The other kids picked on him, but he never felt more at ease in his skin.
Then he started listening to the metal station on the radio, despite his mom's complaining that it was all noise. Those lyrics meant something to him.
Eventually he figured he didn't want to do piano lessons anymore, something his mom had enrolled him in.
"But you play so beautifully," she protested. "You've got a gift for music."
"Yeah well," he sniffed, "maybe I want to play the drums now."
He never thought they'd actually get him a drum set.
His parents thought it was just a phase. Rebellious teen years and all; they'd had their own experience with it. But their parents had been too hard on them. They decided to be different with Gareth. Supportive.
They got him the drums, let him set it up in the garage, put up with the endless hours of migraine-inducing drumming, and apologized to every neighbor that complained.
They played it by ear and watched as their son continued to become someone unfamiliar....until eventually that angry noise in the garage turned more controlled.
He'd play along to the radio, mimicking it.
Sang along with his favorite bands until his voice cracked and he cried.
"He's gotta find himself," Mr. Emerson told his wife, who wanted to step out into the garage to console Gareth. "It'll be ok."
It got better when he moved on to Hawkins High.
He made friends with a sophomore named Jeff. They had similar taste in music and jokes, and if it wasn't their class schedules, they'd be inseparable.
Through Jeff, Gareth met and developed maybe...definitely not...sort of a crush on a senior named Veronica Emerson Ecker. Ronnie.
She'd been nice enough, always remembered his name after Jeff introduced them, and apparently played the drums too.
Gareth was head over heels.
"We practice over at this guy Dougie's house," Jeff explained. "If you wanna come watch us practice sometime?"
"I don't think my mom would like that," Gareth dismissed disappointedly. "She doesn't like me listening to metal. I don't think she'd let me go see a band play."
Jeff hummed and then offered another option.
"Hellfire Club?" Mrs. Emerson screeched when she picked Gareth up and saw him wearing the handmade shirt with a demonic face front and center. "I thought you were joining Chess club!"
"I might have lied to you," he muttered.
The first meeting he'd attended had been a disaster--everyone at school knew who Eddie Munson was, but meeting him had been a different story--and he damn near quit.
But he didn't.
It had been fun enough and Eddie hadn't been so bad. He encouraged Gareth to give it another shot which Gareth was grateful for.
He was determined to go back next week.
If his parents let him.
He got a lecture the whole drive home, and then again once his dad got home from work.
"It's like we don't even know you anymore Gareth!" his mother sobbed at the very end.
"Maybe you don't!" He shouted. "I'm not your little guy anymore! I'm 15! I'm all grown up now."
His parents laughed but he kept going.
"I don't fit in with the other kids and I don't want to. I like metal and playing the drums and I like Dungeons and Dragons. The kids in Hellfire are really cool. Dougie...well he's kind of a jerk but he gave me a copy of The Hobbit. It's the best. A-and my friend Jeff is there and he plays in a band too.
"I think maybe that would be cool," he finished sheepishly. "Playing in a band someday."
His shoulders heaved and he watched his parents with desperate eyes, hoping they'd understand.
They had to.
His mom leaned over and whispered in his dad's ear, who simply nodded.
"Growing up is tough," Mr. Emerson said softly. "We're always gonna worry about you; we just want you to be happy, pal. So if you want to be a part of this club, we're not gonna stop you."
All three of them let out a breath of relief, and then his parents were on their feet to embrace him. His dad clapped a hand on his shoulder and his mom suffocated him with a hug.
He was about to go to the garage to play, when his mom held him at arms length and asked, "are you really sure about this Hellfire Club thing?"
"Mom!"
"Ok! Just checking!"

You're one of the few people I'm confident is interested in my writing & muses. Never had any doubts about that literally. I know I'd literally die for yours. Hmu if you ever write a book I'd buy that shit quick. Every reply, every ask, it's like a dessert. You've truly given me the best rp experience ever. And i wanna do my best to give you a good experience as well because im as invested in your content as you are in mine. You're awesome, amazing, so, so talented and creative. You're also such a great friend, thanks especially for sending me messages currently since it's just been rough haha. Just... Thanks for everything. I've had tough moments on this blog but having you as a mutual is why it still remains :))
But AAAA the ones i havent posted are unfinished, since i keep getting stuck or lose confidence in what I'm writing. I know i started the one i mentioned where the siblings talk about namida recently I'll try focusing on that next. You remain the only reason i still consider posting drabbles ajdjdjsksjd thanks i know i always look forward to your comments on them. But DUDE I'd love to read any other drabbles you'll write. I think so far you wrote the one where Namida got really upset and made a mess in her room & the really smutty one. I really wanna reread the first one so if you have a link pls send i read the most recent one a couple times already jesus. So good. Top tier stuff. Also if i forgot any others you posted please lmk 😩 but also just for u I'll make sure to try finishing more drabbles.
Thanks so much for being such a good friend / rp partner. Sending good vibes to you as well. You made me really happy by sending this sorry if its a jumbled mess ily )
