I'm a hostess, and three days ago when I told someone that was my job, they, without hesitation, straight up just nodded, and said with a smile.
"So you're a professional gaslighter."
I haven't been able to stop thinking about it because I started thinking of all the times I've told customers and servers to fuck off so nicely that if they persist they end up looking like the bad guy in the conversation.

Meet the BLU team!
I figured I should make this so everything is a little more easier to understand when it comes to Blu such as personality and behavior, also its some lore insight.
Blu Soldier the Leader of Blu team, Strong, Durable, and actually has a brain unlike his red counterpart, when not on the battlefield he regularly disappears here and there, no one knows where he go's, he's quite dopy when it comes to social interactions, but he his very very loyal, a trait that is seen with red soldier.
Blu Demo is the complete opposite of Red Demo, he doesn't drink, he doesn't have wisdom or honor, and he doesn't play with swords, he carries sticks of dynamite and takes his role in Blu very seriously, he's a rule fallower and doesn't take kindly to his team relaxing or mucking about, don't piss him off, due to this aggressive personality he has become second in command by default.
Blu Medic, is also the opposite of his Red counterpart, While Red Medic is frolicking in the battlefield as blood is spilt or experimenting on his team with animal organs and playing god, Blu Medic is quite, calculated, and flexible, he can be seen in the background using actual medicine on his team, he is quite aware of his surroundings and is by far the smartest of his team, and has a moral compass that's somehow intact, he is quite anti social and slightly temperamental when it comes to carelessness, he has fallowed the Hippocratic oath to the finest detail, though due to this passive nature he cannot defend himself and is a easy target without his team, the closet to a friend he has is Blu Engineer and Blu Soldier, though he sees there friendship as buissnes oriented
Blu Sniper, A great hunter and Surprise ambusher, but despite that he is very unprofessional when it comes to his job, he loves the thrill of the hunt, and has quick reflexes but in personality...he is quite brain dead, he cant read a map, awful with directions, can get winey when he doesn't want to do something, clumsy, and has little in common with his Red counterpart, he also has the need to upstage Red Sniper in every way.
Blu Spy, A slippery, Sneaky, little snitch, While Red spy is collected and straight faced, Blu Spy takes great pleasure in mockery and humiliating his targets, he is by definition a Sadist, and a narcissist, more narcissistic than Red Spy, everyone in his team hates him and he hates them, in his free time he stalks his team and gathers dirt on them and anything that he can use against them to blackmail them, so he can control them in order to gain more power and influence within the team, he is a backstabber and doesn't play fair, but when caught red handed he flees like a coward or a child in trouble.
Blu Pyro, he is a friendly fella, and he is quite fluent in English and speaks quite well, the most innocent one, cares about his teammates, motherly nature, worries about them, puts them all first before himself, people pleaser, hates violence, but if told he has to do it he will do it.
Blu Scout, is the only one in Blu similar to his counterpart, he just dosent have a crush on Miss Pauling or an interest in women, loudmouthed, and respectless, dosent know what a comic book is or who Tom Jones is (how dare he)
Blu Engie, as of late incredibly grumpy, no longer being pushed around, is the one pushing people around, secretive, not content, developed a rebellious personality as of late, planning something.
Blu Heavy, Simple minded, brute, always go's into hand to hand combat if given the option.
I reworked some of there personality traits and looks to make them more diverse instead of having them always being aggressive and spiteful which was there original personality traits, since originally the story was going to have a slightly more darker undertone when it came to the Blu's.
they are all clones of the Red Team, Blutarch wanted to defeat his brother so why not clone a team of mercs that are perfect and capable as Red team, to make the playing field more fair, (that and the Administrator had something to do with this)
if you have any questions about them let me know, I wont be able to give a clear an answer to some things since that would spoil the story a little bit :)
Edit(redid some of the bios have at it :) )
#tf2#team fortress 2#tf2 spy#tf2 engineer#tf2 sniper#tf2 scout#tf2 demoman#tf2 soldier#tf2 medic#tf2 heavy#tf2 pyro#tf2 blu team#tf2 comics#tf2 gmod

hi! try this :) https://pin.it/7yDRk3alf
Hello~✨ I did and it was fun, send more if there's any I'd love to answer these~
I'd agree to the most part except Naoya being the childhood friend 🤡 I'd push him in the mud puddle no hesitation (sorry Naoya stans, I really just can't) 😭, Kento's the most nicest after Choso to be a brother, I'd love that! Utahime and Shoko *chef kiss*, Suguru, hands down I'd fight him every inch (passive-aggressive at its finest), this is predictable that I'd force it to draw Satoru as my man 🫣 I'd do it over and over to get him!

How I wanted Marjory’s labour to go, versus how it wacktually went:
Both fast asleep and her waters break. Peter does the panic.
She doesn’t care at this point, he’s going wild yet all she wants to do is make the frickin bed. Passive aggression at its finest!
So I watch, and peter decides that was unneeded. He decides to leave her suffering alone while he heads out to do the laundry.
And that was where the wee bairn landed, head first into the ground!!
It was twins, but sadly, this means one of the babies didn’t make it on their treacherous journey through the mortal coil.
No kid could have made that landing, I had to oblige the force kill :(
Peter then had to head off to work, in mourning, as it would have been in the day - childhood mortality was as common as the common cold.
This is how my gameplay uses stupid EA glitches to create realism in Medieval times.
Realism. . .

sunshine ❤️ but also noodle for the angst in joy's DMs 💀
LMAOOOO meow youre amazing.
And because i love you Ill share the angst from yesterday that I was talking about in Joys (@wearfinethingsalltoowell ) DMs 😈
Stede loves birthdays, but not his own. Hes never had a good birthday. His father wanted him to do something that a "real man" would on his birthday. Lots of tearful hunting trips as Stede flinched at the loud shots and cried at the sight and smell of dead animals.
At boarding school, his birthdays were either lonely, or purposefully hurtful. Fake surprise parties that ended with Stede getting cake or pie thrown in his face, planned events that no one showed up to, and so on.
With Mary, Stede mostly stopped trying. He did try, once, to plan a small get together with their neighbours. Everyone forgot, and Stede was left alone at the table, all dressed up, a cake to himself. Mary apologized of course, but Stede never planned a birthday for himself again.
That said, his loves for birthdays never stopped. Stede planned events for Mary and the kids every year. Birthdays were what he and Mary bonded over the most. He bought Mary her first painting set (even if he promptly forgot about it and asked her months later when she decided to purchase painting materials).
Stede was never terribly observant, except when it came to birthdays. He always knew exactly what to get Mary or the kids, how to plan an unforgettable event. He had never been good with anniversary gifts, but birthdays just felt different.
When he left for the sea, his crews birthdays became a centrepoint. A few members didnt remember or know their birthdays, so Stede assigned them, and made parties no one ever forgot. Even for Izzy, Stede would plan an extra bloody raid, and have Ed suggest it because he knew Izzy wouldnt agree if it came from him.
Stedes 40th birthday happened back home, sat alone at the table across from a petrified orange. "How was your day, Edward? Mine? Oh, its my birthday. I suppose I'm not surprised that its just us, here. Ive never had a birthday was wasnt terribly lonely. Though, i suppose there's no one to blame this year but myself."
The next year, Ed and Stede have reunited. Every single birthday on the Revenge has been celebrated with festivities that no one could beat. Eds own birthday was a beautiful dinner party. Fancy dress code, but with none of the rules of high society. They ate cake with the lobster spoons, just because they could. Stede taught Ed the Waltz, and they danced all through the night. Stede never laughed or smiled as big as he did that night, watching Edward unwrap the silk poets blouse with a leather vest, handmade by one of the finest vendors Stede could find. It became a regular staple of Edwards wardrobe.
When Stedes birthday rolled around, he kept it quiet. He'd never had a good birthday, and honestly he didnt want to bring the crew down with his sour birthday memories. Instead of celebrating, Stede decided he would stop at port on his birthday for a spot of shopping. He could buy himself a trinket, and allow himself some extra sweets after dinner. Truthfully, a birthday where he isnt alone would make this one better than any he'd had before, and for Stede that would be enough.
Its a day before his birthday when Charles shows up. Hes another one of Edwards rowdy pirate friends from back in the day, and he's strikingly similar to Jack.
Stede grits his teeth and endures the passive aggressive taunts, the loud noises through the night, the non-stop drinking. He decides he doesn't care if his birthday is terrible. He just wants to survive it this year without breaking down, something hes done more times than he can count.
Even this goal is left unmet when Charles stumbles drunkenly over to Stede on the beach that afternoon, slamming into him. He loses his footing and falls unceremoniously into the passing wave, his trousers becoming caked with wet sand. When he rights himself, Charles is laughing.
"Heh. Oops. Didnt see you there. Guess youre easy to miss. Blackbeard hasnt even noticed you all night. I bet its-"
He stops, not because anyone makes him, but because suddenly Charles is gagging and throwing up, the vomit spraying down Stedes front.
Stede feels the tears gathering, then.
"Oops. My bad. Want me to push you back in the water to clean it?"
Stedes voice wavers as he says
"No. Thank you. I think ill just head back to the ship."
He does, and as soon as the door shuts behind him, the tears start falling.
#ask#blakbonnet#i can write a resolution if you want#joy and me talked about it LOl#but it was already getting long#enjoy your pain

During the separate ways game, Ada basically stalks Leon for more reasons than one, main one being he will lead her straight to the amber.
She only faces herself to Leon after Ashley runs away to that room, when she's no longer with Leon so she can instigate that he leaves Ash and come with her instead- so she doesn't even have the bravery to say what she had to say in front of Ashley. In separate ways on multiple occasions she is on the outside and hears Leon fighting zombies, and on one you can hear Ashley crying in the castle room from her POV. Later, she totally eavesdropped on the conversation between them inside that room. Because she calls Leon on the comms a little later, and gives him a tip about Ashley to help him- even though she was JUST saying to leave her to die.
Jealousy at its finest.
"Look at me Leon, I'm helping you, be grateful! Pick me!"
She proceeds to mock and belittle Ashley, and says "babysittings tough huh?" Another micro-aggression and effort at humiliating and degrading Ash, and to make herself look better, and better deserving for his attention, her desired effect is- she wants Leon to think Ashley is pathetic and isn't deserving of his help. But he doesn't, not for a second.
The next comms they have, Leon becomes passive aggressive this time. A sarcastic "I guess I should be.... Thankful?" With a bit of annoyance in his voice shows me he's not even appreciative of her and is still suspicious. She proceeds to be a bitch still, and say "Yeah. You should." . He knows he can figure it out on his own, and that he doesn't need her. When he sees Ada hung up in the air and he says "he thinks he's gonna lure me out." Leon wouldn't leave her to die, especially with all she's done for him this far-
Ada knows this. She knows his kind heartedness will get her out of that situation. All the "selfless" seeming aid she's given Leon had it's benefits.
She knows he will feel indebted to her because he's a good person. He saves her, and she STILL steals the virus.
She found herself too caught up in Leon, the feelings of envy and anger in her, and she wanted out of the job, even though she knew exactly what unleashing this virus further into the world meant. In a split second, her jealousy got the better of her.
Just like on the comms, she was compelled to do something good for Leon in an effort to prove to him that she's a *good* person and hopefully get his trust, only because she views Ashley as a competition + the plaga sample.
But she knows if the virus gets out, Leon will know it's all Ada's fault and will never like her.
Her pathetic attempts at getting Leon to like her turns her into this insecure broad, chasing Leon's attention.
Like the constant asking if he'll come along with her. Leaving Ashley to die in the process just to fulfill her own selfish needs.
Showing the audience that all the things she did for him was just a ploy to get ahead, which is why Leon doesn't even seem betrayed like he did in re2. He already expected this to happen.They made Ada a bitter, jealous and insulting person in the remake. Constantly calling Leon a dog and dehumanizing him, making bitch faces at Ashley when she demands Ada help him, and getting all upset when he doesn't want to be with her (NAH SHIT!!!) all because her manipulations aren't working. In the remake, she quite obviously has some sort of feelings for Leon but doesn't have the capacity to make non retarded decisions. You can tell the rejection really got to her when she impulsively asked Wesker what he'll do with the virus. She knows what he'll do. He's a mastermind, a psycho. She's not a vegetable and can reasonably understand that he will use it for bad. This isn't her first time around, anyway, can't blame it on naivety.
At the very least he'll use it to experiment on innocent people- but there's always an endgame (world domination and/or destruction). They desperately tried to save her character by making her hijack the plane after she heard there will be billions of casualties.
Ada disappears for the entirety of the saddler-leon fight until the end. She got Intel that Wesker's chopper was making land. And needed to secure the amber immediately. She had the rocket launcher the whole time, but chose not to help because that's her resources. Ultimately, she didn't help until it benefitted her, and when Leon was exhausted from the fight, she swooped in.
She genuinely looks so disappointed that a good hearted hero like Leon doesn't want in on her grimy, terroristic instigating schemes. It's actually gross. And even so, I think the feelings she has for Leon are more of "pick me, choose me" seeing as she demonstrates zero remorse or decent qualities to show she tries for a person as great as Leon.
When Capcom sat down to write RE4make and Separate Ways, they had to have a moment of reckoning when it came to Ada's character:
Do they continue to write out her romance with Leon, or
Do they commit to her role as an ambiguous third party agent keeping her fingers in all of the pies?
They chose the latter. They chose the latter because it was more important, narratively. And they couldn't have both, because having both doesn't make any fucking sense and never has made any fucking sense.
Ada is a selfish character, at her core. To have her constantly be soft for Leon undermines that selfishness and makes her other actions not make any sense; if she cared that much about him, why would she continuously serve the bad guys that make his life a living hell? And the reverse is also true. Why would she care so much about Leon if all he does is get in her way and act as a distraction for her?
So anyone who complains that RE4make's Separate Ways didn't show Ada caring enough about Leon -- that was the point. They solidified her identity as a character by doing that.
The writers of the Remake series made a conscious decision to make Leon and Ada's interactions/relationship in RE2make serve an actual function/purpose for their characters instead of "uwu they're in love."
For Leon -- Ada taught him that the people opposed to him aren't always bad guys. She taught him the true lesson of "the road to Hell is paved with good intentions." He learned to trust that little voice in the back of his head that tells him "something's not right here." She also taught him that there's a way to do the right thing without following the rules -- and, sometimes, by breaking them entirely.
For Ada -- Leon taught her that being independent doesn't mean self-isolating -- because just looking out for herself and no one else actually resulted in her just keeping her head down and not asking questions, which screwed her over big time in the end. Leon didn't teach her love or compassion or empathy; he showed her that she was actually being just as naive as he was, just on the other side of the fight.
Basically, they both taught each other: QUESTION EVERYTHING. Because that was the one thing that neither of them did in RE2make until it was way, way too late.
And so, in RE4make/Separate Ways, Ada spends far less time and emotional energy worrying about Leon because she's actually taking the lesson he taught her to heart and she's questioning the people and circumstances around her in order to protect herself. That was the point of her early voiceover about how Raccoon City changed her perspective and made her start asking where her efforts were going and why she was doing what she was sent to do.
She doesn't ask questions for moral reasons. She asks them for selfish ones. Because Ada is an inherently selfish character.
On the boat, Leon asks Ada: "Are you just trying to use me again?" and Separate Ways answers and repeats over and over and over again: YES. The only reason she helps Leon in the village and at Mendez's house is so that he can continue being useful for her. Because Leon didn't teach her to care about people; Leon only taught her how to better take care of herself -- the same way she did for him.
This is a really damning exchange of words:
So, yes -- Ada is using Leon in RE4make. Yes, she only helps him because it benefits her. No, she genuinely doesn't care whether he lives or dies. Yes, she meant it when she told Leon to leave Ashley for dead, and yes, her sole reason for doing it was to get Ashley out of the way because Ada found Leon's new demeanor hot and she wanted to fuck him. No, she had no intention of taking Ashley with them on the chopper at the end -- because yes, her invitation to Leon was a bookend to her earlier offer for Leon to leave Ashley and go fuck her (Ada) instead.
And that's why Leon tells her to go fuck herself and shakes his head in utter disbelief when she asks if he's coming with her.
Because Ada is a selfish character.
I don't say this to hate on the character or even express dislike for her. This doesn't make her a bad character -- in fact, the opposite is true. It makes her consistent, which makes her a better written character overall from what/who she was in OG.
It also doesn't make her evil or a bad guy. Ada Wong is the most Chaotic Neutral character in the entire RE series -- even moreso than Billy Coen or Jake Muller ever were. She's in it for herself, and that particular approach is neither inherently morally good nor evil.
But Aeon is dead canonically in the Remake-verse. It was sacrificed in the name of bringing consistency and logic to both characters.
And that was the true point of the boat scene.
Neither of them have changed who they are at their most fundamental level. Leon is still the selfless hero, and Ada is still the selfish spy. Their relationship in RE2make served as a strengthening of those core traits -- not an erosion of them. Leon can better protect and save Ashley because of the lessons that Ada taught him, and Ada can successfully outmaneuver Wesker because of the lessons that Leon taught her.
But that doesn't change who she is. It doesn't change who either of them are. In fact, it only served to create a more authentic version of them both. Leon is more zealous in his heroism, and Ada is more committed to her own self-preservation and naked about her selfish intentions.
The only people in RE4make who changed who they were were Luis and Krauser. Luis for the better, and Krauser for the worse. And they both paid for it with their lives.

You can't post about disliking vague posting and leave us hanging like that (btw thankful for your blog)
Ha! It’s a post I had for a long time in my drafts so I don’t remember what it was about at the time I wrote it. I’m not above some juicy gossip and I’m annoyed when someone isn’t crystal clear who they’re beefing with :)
Case in point: Sophia Bush (whom I had a crush on years ago while watching One Tree Hill, like almost all lesbians) who was fighting on Insta with randos sending her DMs (a lesbian friend told me this) and apparently it was super vague and passive-aggressive but my friend inferred it was about her new relationship with football player Ashlyn Harris 🤣 and people taking the side of Ali Krieger
Lesbian drama at its finest 👌🏻
#my friend is super into this relationship drama because she used to play football ⚽️ lol#I don’t really care because football isn’t a sport I’m drawn to#but it’s funny nonetheless#meanwhile I’m trying to figure out if any of the bike riders in Tour de France femmes are gay#no luck so far :(

of a devil with many names
She really does not deserve the attention. But it seems such measures are the only thing keeping this woman child in check. Narcissistic abuse at its finest most vindictive, and passive aggressive. The worst has not been captured but that is of no account, when dealing with the small minded, dragged up in the school of hard knockery, it’s none too difficult to anticipate their child like…

thinking about this again and like. the whole but where florence and anatoly fall in love in like 4 mins flat and then freddie walks in on them, interrupts by yelling about florence’s missing dad(!), and then stops to calmly passive aggressively explain he’s made a new deal with global television and finishes off the whole thing with that gayass little “aNd wE dOn’T hAvE tO bE fRiEnDs”… operatic logic at its finest!!!! they are all divos and divas that somehow ended up in a musical and not an opera!!!!
usually, as an opera person, whenever a musical is called a “rock opera” i just kind of roll my eyes a little bit bc… smth smth “opera” on its own is an infamously nebulous term and so is “rock opera” and really it’s just a way to say “a musical with rock music” dramatically, but with chess… yeah. that is a Rock Opera. all of the characters are running on opera logic, and so is the plot. if florence and freddie and anatoly were hanging out in a verdi opera they would fit right in.
