*~*~*~*

It is in a wolf’s nature to be gluttonous, but so is that of a dog’s. 

Dogs come after wolves in the theory of evolution, and with dogs comes the unselfishness to be one. However, while dogs are not as gluttonous as wolves, they still are, in other ways. They seek constant attention, negative or otherwise, and will always have the personality of a human infant, regardless of how they are brought up by their superiors.

They express their emotions with the limited range of sounds they possess, sometimes timid and shrill, other times rough and menacing. They are dogs, experts in getting what they want in their way. Their primary pursuit is garnering the affection, care, and admiration they are unable to give themselves. Isn't it beautiful, people ask and say and wonder? They depend on those in their vicinity and refuse to release their grip, for if they do, they will stumble and remain fallen.

They do nothing, yet ask for everything, much like the wolves that came before them. 

You put in the effort, while they enjoy the benefits that rightfully belong to you, rather than to them. However, you permit this arrangement because they assist you in warding off other threats, coming to your aid when you summon them, and fulfilling other tasks that you are incapable of accomplishing alone.

So, who is the dog, who is the man, and who is the wolf? Is that really up to you to decide, or is that the world’s decision, or is the question at hand supposed to be answered by the one who promised you a new life away from the one you ran away from, Satoru Gojo?

He is the same one that holds your daughter’s hand so gently, while his infinity leads you to not be able to touch him at all.

“I have to take her to kindergarten now, Satoru.”

As you state the task at hand that you must do, if you ever want your daughter to have a good life, Satoru sighs and pushes up his sunglasses. “Rina is a good name for her, I would say.”

“That… isn’t the point.”

“It means joy, doesn’t it?”

Unaware of the situation unfolding, Rina wears a constant smile, her irises almost black and squinting with sheer joy. These eyes, when glanced at by you, inadvertently bring pain, as they vividly resemble Geto’s own.

“It’s her first day, Satoru. Please let me take her, you know she… doesn’t have any friends.”

“She has me!” Satoru bursts with joy, hoisting Rina high above him and twirling her around, their laughter filling the air. You dislike how paternal he acts towards her, yet appreciate it at the same time. Being a mother was never your desire, so maybe Satoru lightens that burden for you, even though his motives are self-serving. He had extended his offer to shelter both of you a few months after your daring escape, while you were cradling baby Rina in your arms, who had just been born in an old, desolate house on the fringes of Tokyo.

You had no desire for her to fall ill, and despite everything, you remained as her mother. You intended to fulfill the role of a good mother, even if it was imposed upon you unintentionally or not by Geto. She is under your care, correct? As her mother, you would go to any lengths to ensure that Geto never discovers her existence. Does she possess the ability to perceive curses? If she does, and Geto were to discover her, she would be confined to a luxurious but restrictive environment. However, if she lacks this ability and he still becomes aware... you are uncertain of the consequences she would face. All you are certain of is that it would be something detrimental, something deeply distressing.

You are both dressed in white fleece, while Satoru wears fully black as he always has. “Let her stay. I’ll hire a tutor for her.”

Can you refuse this? Satoru possesses the demeanor of a loyal canine, whereas Geto embodies the spirit of a cunning wolf. Yet both inflict harm upon you, though in distinct manners. However, they both cause you pain. Don't they both cause you pain? They will forever remain entwined with you and with each other, connected by an unbreakable crimson thread, as they both harm you and strive to control you.

So, just as many, many times before, you bite your tongue and nod. Satoru smiles, then takes Rina back inside, down the hall to the elevators, as you follow them. “Yay, Rina! No school for you!”

“Yay!”

He presses the up button, and you resist the urge to run with Rina in your arms.

*~*~*~*

“She’s my daughter, Satoru.”

“I still don’t know why you decided to keep that brat around.” You never are used to Satoru speaking too coldly, especially when it comes to talking about Rina, but then again it only happens behind closed doors, when Rina has been put to bed for the night and all the lights are turned off aside from the one beside Satoru’s side of the bed. “Sure, she may be your biological daughter, but she is still unwanted, isn’t she? You never wanted to be a mother, so why do you want her to be with you so badly, huh?”

“She can’t survive out there, Satoru. Geto may find her too and… who knows what will happen then?”

“Is that your problem?” He grins, and it makes you almost cry more than this argument you’re having does. “I’ll tell you, it isn’t. She takes up time, money, all sorts of resources, and for what? She does nothing for us, does nothing for you.”

“She’s a child.”

“An unwanted one.”

So, who determines the roles of the dog, the man, and the wolf? Is it your decision, the world's decision, or the responsibility of the one who promised you a fresh start away from your past, Satoru Gojo?

Is your daughter truly a burden? Will she never experience happiness? Will you never find contentment? Will that be due to Rina or because of Satoru?

It is instinctual for a wolf to be voracious, just as it is for a dog.

According to the theory of evolution, dogs follow after wolves, embodying selflessness. However, while dogs may not be as gluttonous as wolves in some aspects, they still possess certain tendencies. They constantly seek attention, whether positive or negative and maintain a childlike personality, regardless of their upbringing by their superiors.

They express their emotions through a limited range of sounds, sometimes timid and high-pitched, other times aggressive and intimidating. They are skilled at manipulating situations to get what they desire, like experts in their own unique way.

Rina's core objective revolves around seeking love, support, and admiration that she cannot provide for herself. It is a captivating notion that often prompts people to ponder and discuss. Rina relies heavily on those around her and is reluctant to let go, fearing that she will falter and stay down. In many ways, she resembles the wolves of old. 

The question arises in your mind: is Rina truly a wolf or merely a dog?

Is either answer just as bad as the other?

“Let me put it this way, sweetie.” Satoru leaned in closer then, and you could smell the artificial scent of cherry in his breath. “If she stays… I will make sure Suguru Geto’s offspring never has a good life. Out there, though… Perhaps if she works enough, she’ll deserve happiness. She’s a sinner’s child, a murderer’s child, and therefore doesn’t she deserve a similar fate? If Geto’s plan succeeded, you would be tied down with him forever, you know? If he finds out about her, he will attempt to do so again.”

Your heart sinks so low you could swear it is being dissolved by stomach acid. 

“She’ll hurt you more, too, if she stays, you know. Whether Suguru finds her or not. So, what do you say? Your choice.”

Is it though, you want to ask? But you can’t. You don’t want to go back on the streets, hiding at every corner.

So, once again, you bite your tongue, and like a good dog, obey.

*~*~*~*

You don’t remember what you said. You only remember what you did, how Rina reacted.

She was crying. Screaming and begging for you to not leave her, snot and tears running down her face along with the chilly midnight air and the rain. With every step she took, you took three back, and when she touched you you kept pushing her to the wall behind the restaurant complex in the center of Tokyo. Behind the whole ordeal, Satoru’s smirk never faded.

But this was for Rina’s own good, right? Geto won’t find out about her, if you never recognize her as your child, right? She’ll be happier, and you’ll be happier too, right?

Right?

10 and 22 with Pierre 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Prompts requested / 10. “Spread your legs wider.” 22. “Show me how much you need me.”

Warnings kinda dom!pierre, jealousy sex, mentions of an threesome, choking, slight corruption, oral (f!m & male receiving) 0/100 quickly.

If looks could kill pierre would have certainly killed yuki with his dark gaze that lingered on you and yuki. He watched as yuki showed you around the garage, arms locked together liked you belonged to him. But he ignored that, knowing you were just a friendly girl and got along well with everyone.

But yuki, that was a different story, he loved to act all kindly and sweet with you but behind your back he shot pierre looks with a known smirk on his face, making him roll his eyes clenching his jaw tightly.

“And this is, of course sir-gasly’s awful car” yuki joked as he walked up towards Pierre’s car, you right by his side.

“Be nice” you said looking over at Pierre, eyebrows raised as he kept quiet and instead looked at where you and yuki kept your arms locked. You awkwardly coughed dropping your arms walking over to Pierre. “You okay” you asked, he hummed hand grabbing yours.

“Perfectly fine” he spoke through gritted teeth, his sharp eyes not leaving yuki’s, “so yuki, have fun?” He asked voice deep.

Yuki shrugged a smirk still tugging at his lips, “should ask y/n, good luck on practice today” he gave you a wink before walking away.

As he became invisible to yours and Pierre’s eye-sight Pierre turned to look down at you, “did you two have fun” he asked again, voice way deeper than before sending a shiver down your spine.

“Had fun” you spoke weakly his tall frame hovering over you scaring you a bit, “showed me around, and-

He cut you off by brutally grabbing your hand, leading you towards his motorhome. As you both walked through the door he had you up against the wall, hand around your throat. “Had fun, huh” he leaned down towards your neck placing soft kisses up to your jaw, stopping right at your lips. ‘So much fun, you forgot that your boyfriend was standing right there the whole time watching you both”

He tightened his grip, before releasing. “Am sorry” you gasped feeling him tug up your dress his hand laying flat against your white-laced covered pussy, rubbing you through your panties.

“Sorry, really” he pushed your panties to the side his index finger slipping in and out of your wet hole. “Didn’t look so sorry, seeing as you both looked pretty happy together” he lowered himself down to his knees, “go on, spread your legs wider for me” you threw your leg over his shoulder. Breath getting caught in your throat as you felt him tear off your panties throwing them somewhere in the room.

“Look at you, so wet for me - or was it because of him” you clutched around his finger, face burning in embarrassment at his cruel words, “oh look at you” he pushed two fingers in, a sigh of relief falling from your lips.

“Such a little whore” you tugged at his hair feeling him speed up his pace, “always loving the attention he gives you, tell me” his fingertips dogged into your thigh making you look down at him, “you want me to go get him, have him fuck you while i watch” you moaned, head feeling dizzy with all the words he was actually saying.

“Fuck no, please don’t stop”

He chuckled, “right that’s right, because you’re mine and only mine” you nodded, choked moans escaping your lips as you felt him suck on your clit.

“Fuck Pierre, feels so good” and as soon as the pleasure started, Pierre suddenly stopped making you whine, your pussy practically clutching around nothing. “Why’d you stop” he chuckled, pulling you in for messy kiss.

“What you to show me how much you need me, on your knees love” you sank down onto your knees. he pulled down his fireproof, your mouth watered at the sight of his cock hitting his abdomen, “gonna fuck your mouth until every little thought of yuki is gone” you nodded, way too lost to even understand what he was saying.

can i ask for this Juan guy lore :v i saw his tweet when it had like 3k and thought it cant be good but i dont know anything about him. its upsetting to see 12k likes tho like why are people fighting against human fights tho

oh this is a long one, who's Juan Guarnizo, the streamer who has recently tweeted against the french union in regards of the qsmp.

juan guarnizo is a colombian streamer (who now lives in mexico with his wife). he's participated in Tortillaland, a roleplaying minecraft series, as a wizard of sorts. He then decided to create a "spin-off" series (more cinematic/pre-planned) called "El Dios de Todo" (The God of Everything, his character's catchphrase). So he partnered with Euphonia, a popular Minecraft Studio that has created games such as SquidCraft, Dedsafio, SawMinecraftGames, and more.

He announced he was looking for several roleplayers for this project, and people started complaining on twitter because some of the requirements were pretty much insane.

Some include, full availability for 6 hours a day everyday for an entire month, good quality microphone, not being able to livestream the content, just record it to be used after the proyect was released, knowing how to rhyme/rap/sing/imitate voices and animals/general voice acting talent and being able to improv. All of that for the price of 0$. The payment? The enriching experience of being part of this unpayed proyect with your favorite content creator.

Well turns out people still didn't like this idea, justifiably so, and continued to call him out on twitter. His initial response was as follows:

(Hello, I understand that you know little about the project so I'll explain it to you: The God of Everything is a series based on a story that we will tell in the most cinematic way possible, therefore it is only possible to have one pov and not 40. Participants will be able to take advantage of the series on different social media platforms but not live. How much benefit they decide to get out of it is up to each person. The 6 hours a day thing is insurance, because there will most likely be days where your participation is half an hour and that's it. Also making it clear that professionals such as voice actors who will also be in the series will be paid for their work. We are creating an experience never seen before for me, the roleplayers and the audience, whoever wants and can experience it will enjoy it very much. It is something that we are putting all our heart and desire into for those who want to see the story. Communities that are not going to see it at all, at least don't fill it with your toxicity or bad vibes.)

Basically excusing himself by "I'm doing good by allowing you to join, please don't let toxicity ruin this". Which was still off, because professional voice actors would be getting payed but somehow the rest wouldn't, weird overall. Several POVs would be recorded but only one would be able to broadcast it, Juan. "we'll pay you with exposure" ahh deal

I haven't followed him since this happened, some claim he then did pay the actors, but even if that were the case, that would've never happened if it weren't for people calling out his exploitative bs. Which is exactly what's happened with the qsmp, only this time it's not a cancellation on twitter dot com, but a whole entire french union.

What I think their fans don't understand is that this is not a mob campaign against their faves, it's about protecting the working class from the privileged who refuse to pay them correctly or sometimes never at all, granting them rights to defend themselves when cases like these arise. This goes for people who claim Juan learned from his mistake, he clearly didn't if his immediate reaction to the union was:

(It's good that they formed a union, so they all hold hands together and fuck off)

So either he's forgotten his "lesson", or he only payed them (if that even happened) because he got caught and wanted to prevent a future cancelation).

Stolas and Valentino are the same character

Hear me out.

Warning: Long text. Also hot take?

Disclaimer: I don't hate HH or HB, or any real person involved. While I'm not shy to criticize, at the end of the day it's still a fictional world and not worth getting too mad over.

So, I'm one of the people who had never heard of the Hellaverse before HH dropped earlier this year. Never seen either pilots, never heard of Hazbin or Helluva, never seen or known anything of the characters, and thus had 0 attachment to any of it. This year I watched HH after it released in whole before knowing what a helluva boss was. Now, Valentino deserves the bullet, we all know that and most people would agree. So when I got around to HB, I was shocked to see the Valentino archetype....being adored and a fan favorite? Unironically, too?

Like... They're so similar in both how they look, act and feel towards those around them and their version of AngelDust/Blitz.

Let's compare; 1. Rich, high on the social hierarchy, with an authority that's difficult or impossible to challenge: Check.

Valentino is a rich, famous overlord pimp who uses souls and substances to control and exploit people beneath him.

Stolas, demon royalty, filthy rich and so powerful he ranks only below Charlie. Has entire legions and a palace-full of (imp) servants at his beck and call.

2. Tall, red eyed, twink with effeminate gestures, pleasant voice and distinct manner of speech. Also dark purple/grey -ish.

Like come on, check.

3. Obsessed with a low rank, underprivileged poor sack/object of desire.

Check.

4. Gone out of their way to acquire control over their object of desire.

Valentino, through means unknown so far, bought AngelDust's soul, keeping him bound to him. This leaves AngelDust unable to leave or refuse him.

Stolas had his book stolen by Blitz, but instead of reporting him or simply getting it back, waited long enough for the latter to build his business depending on the Grimoire, and only after it became essental to his job, Stolas set inappropriate demands, knowing Blitz would do anything for the book he now relies on.

5. Their objects of desire are expected to perform sexual acts whether they want/like them or not, and are bound to suffer negative consequences for not complying.

AngelDust has to do porn and prostitution work to make Valentino money and afford his addiction. He gets physically abused, belittled/insulted, and verbally/emotionally abused and manipulated for not doing so.

Blitz is expected to sexually please Stolas each full moon however the prince desires, to keep his (very difficult to make and keep for his low rank in society) business afloat, pay his employees, and financially support his adoptive daughter. Failing to keep Stolas happy means putting himself and especially his loved ones at risk or significant disadvantage.

6. On top of their transactional relationships with their OoD, romantic/romance-coded feelings or behaviours are one-sidedly involved.

AngelDust is Valentino's number one star/moneymaker, perhaps favourite employee, yet Valentino throws jealous tantrums when he's ignored/not suckered up to, and feels entitled to Angel's time, attention, availability, and texts him like a clingy boyfriend.

Stolas, not satifsfied with their arrangement, began expecting Blitz to fullfill a romantic role in his life and deliberately tries to have him perform this fantasy; by trying to get him to be his knight in shining armor, dropping everything and coming to his rescue when he's in danger that Stolas could have easily avoided/gotten out of if he didn't want to be a damsel in distress in the romcom in his head. Is shown to be upset/dissapointed when Blitz doens't want to do anything with him outside of their deal; not staying over after sex, not visiting him in the hospital, not wanting to be near him anymore than he has to. Acts wronged, petty, belittling/mocking and ghaslights/guilttrips Blitz when the latter doesn't act like a devoted boyfriend, when in reality Stolas has made him essentially an indebted prostitute.

7. They treat those they see beneath them poorly.

Valentino is sadistic and exploits, physically assaults, emotionally/verbally and psychologically abuses his contracts and coworkers. Is creepy and predatory to those who aren't bound to him yet.

Stolas, less sadistic than Valentino, yet he exploits and physically abuses his palace servants. Is entirely indifferent to seeing his staff mistreated by his wife. Outside his castle, he's classist and racist, belittling imps, feeling entitled to their services showing no gratitude, or straight up ignoring their existance. He only sexually abuses one imp, though :))

8. They treat those on the same level as them poorly or are neglectful.

Valentino is shitty to Vox and Velvette, breaking their stuff, yelling, insulting and being petulant around them. Even to Charlie, who is above him, he assaults and insults her all the same.

Stolas publicly cheated on his wife, flaunts it with no shame, has no concern or care for how this affects his daughter, who he claims is his reason for living and the only one he actually cares about. Doesn't assume any responsibility for his actions, expects everyone to accommodate to him. Carelessly leans out his daughter's inheritance and seemingly her studies, which are his responsibility, are subpar. Also forgets about his daughter constantly, stayed hours in the human world watching a shitty sitcom rather than go look for his missing daughter in a place she's never been in and, as far as he thought, was in danger. Is happy ditching/neglecting his family and princely duties to pursue his OoD with no care for the consequences and harm on others.

9. They often display sexually charged speech and actions that are inapprioriate to the people they're with or the situation.

Valentino is a creep and sexual predator off the go to pretty much anyone, specially vulnerable/gullible people or straight up people who don't want/like it.

Stolas speaks openly of his sexual desires in front of his family, reads imp erotica at the dinner table in front of his wife and teenage daughter. Speaks of Blitz sexually in public despite his protests.

I'm tired of typing at this point lol, sorry for any mispellings, but come on, genuinely asking, why are these two so differently received by the fans?

It's not even about which one is worse, because they way I see it they portray different versions of an abuser; Valentino is the more overt "textbook" type, the one everyone recognizes as abusive, and Stolas is the more covert one that everyone sees as the victim instead and paint the actual victim as the bad guy for not acting like a regular textbook victim. I get that everyone was iffy about Stolas at first, as it's reasonable, but I truly don't get how everyone grew to adore him so much?

Personally, I don't even find him neither funny or charming. At least Valentino has some funny moments/lines, but Stolas is just so whiny and annoying to me, which is a shame because I really wanted to like him and his owl design is cool. I love good villains, and I would like Stolas more if they treated him accordingly, like a villain, instead of a poor uwu sad gay babyboy who's crush doesn't call him back.

If you read this far; first of all, ur cool

I welcome any thoughts and additions as long as you're polite and respectful about it. <3

if for no other reason, please consider revising your post about sonya massey because her family asked for the video to not be shared.

https://www.tumblr.com/thottybrucewayne/757173657558761472/sonya-masseys-family-asked-that-the-video-not-be

would you happen to have the source op is taking this from?

to my knowledge they were/are in favour of the video being public and seen by many. you can watch this interview from wednesday morning where her father featured on cbs mornings, they show the footage on tv (clearly not without his consent) and afterwards her dad says "Thank god for the body camera footage." [2:43] the family's attorney later adds "[...] in 2020, it was the George Floyd torture video that galvanized people in our community to act; in 2024 i believe it's going to be the Sonya Massey shooting video that galvanizes people in our community to act." [5:50] (emphasis mine)

even more explicit is this press conference the family held yesterday with their attorney, where it starts off with "[...] as i watched the video, i thought: this is not murder. this is an assassination. judge for yourself." [0:30] (emphasis mine). their attorney similarly says "[...] we continue to try to fight, not only in the court of law, but in the court of public opinion." [4:28]

i've been confident to not be contradicting their wishes. if they've retracted these statements or released opposing ones then do correct me, please.

ardras and crying as a remedy:💧

ardra, the sixth nakshatra, is symbolized by a teardrop and governed by the deity rudra. last week, i made a thread about how crying is good planetary remediation for anyone with ardra placements because of these associations !!

sidereal degrees: 6°40’ - 20°0’ gemini

tropical degrees: 0°31’ - 13°51’ cancer

planetary remediation is the practice of doing specific things to improve the function of the planets in your chart. if you have a planet in ardra, let yourself cry even if other people think it’s stupid

personally i have an ardra jupiter — with jupiter’s connection to film and acting, i like to let myself cry to movies, shows, etc. because the release feels good !!

my thread was inspired by this wonderful post from @siderealsnake, who talks about rudra’s rulership over ardra and how crying pleases him as a divine healer. as she says here, rudra possesses 1000 remedies and crying is one of them

CRYING REMEDIES FOR PLANETS IN ARDRA:

the sun: while laughing, receiving praise or achievement

the moon: with family, during moments of vulnerability, before sleeping

mercury: while journaling, driving, reading, or studying

venus: while singing, dancing, creating art or music

mars: while working out, playing sports, during arguments, or when excited

jupiter: during movies or shows, while praying or giving offerings

saturn: with the elderly or authority figures, during funeral services

(what is planetary remediation ?)

book a reading !!

Imm-a back!! With more Demon Portal AU!!

I told you I'd be back very soon!!

Just a little side note before start: There is a +18 version of this AU where Wheatley is an Incubus, if anyone here is interested in that, then I might publish it too... maybe... I need motivation guys, never done NSFW before ._.

Now, let's skip more introductions and let's start already!

First, a little reminder that this Wheatley, despite he is still Wheatley, is also a demon, which means he can be a little more reactive and aggresive.

Second, let's talk about the drawing on the left, okay? This is a picture that still needs some work cause demons are not supposed to be visible for normal humans, not quiet sure if interact with them. BUT this has a context that I can work with:

He caught a stealer trying to get in the house; he's been a while without eating, so he's starting to lose control over his worst instincts and since Chell is, at the moment, being too much of a challenge, he is hungry, frustrated and not holding back.

Demons like him can only feed on very specific stuff: Small living creatures, blood (specially human blood), vital energy and fear. Chell's going to need to think and act fast and the solution comes from an unexpected fount

You see, I really like vampires and some other super natural creatures so... yeah, I'll be mixing a few things with the demons from this AU (because is my AU and I say so) which would include the next thing

I think that would be the moment where she would not only actually talk to him, even saying long sentences, but would also call him by his name, even tho, he never told it to her.

I haven't decide this clearly yet, but I imagine a situation kinda like him saying something like he is sick of waiting and since she didn't allowed him do anything with her (I'm not sure if that would be it or he actually started to like her before this so he stoped himself a bit) he just captured another prey

-0-

They would argue since she clearly wants to stop him

"Oh come on, this is a thief, ain't them?!! why are you defending them?!!... psst, you know what? forget it. Come to think about it, this could be an even better treat than simple meal. Yeah you don't look that tasty mate... but you''re a robber, right? that's what you are, steal stuff, be a bad guy, but probably having one of those uhm... those human heartbreaking stories, probably you have some sort of fmaily behind? I can just smell it, I'm right, yeah?"

The thief nods scared

"Hah!! I knew it, even better!! so if I kill you... nobody's going to believe it was a demon... everyone will think it was you, right love?? yeah... sending you to jail over a crime you didn't comite... and killing a poor soul in misfortune, hehehe I'm winning my horn for sure with this"

Chell is mad staring at him

"I was right about you.... you haven't change a bit from the last time, have you?" he is about to take a bite "Wheatley"

Suddenly he stop himself after hearing that

"How did you.... how did you know my name!!? I'm sure! I could bet I've never told-!! you know what!!? It doesn't matter!! to be honest it doesn't matter at all!! I have a meal to take 😈 "

"No, please!!! help!!!"

"Stop it!!" she throws a salt jar to him, but, suddenly, in the middle of that, he actually and involuntarily, he does stop, to Chell's and his own confusion. There was not much time to think about it, Chell has a good aim and the salt hit him in all the face, making him to release the thief

-0-

Or something like that. Basically, in case I didn't made it clear 😅 someone can gain some level of control over a demon here IF they know and say their actual name. Neither Wheatley nor Chell know this, he is just surprise she knows his name.

A few doodles more here

The upper one happens once a good time has happens since the start, they have a bigger bond now, he got a new level (and a horn) by that point, he is trying to protect her from something or someone

In the left one, do I need to explain? The eyeball's gonna get trapped.

The right one is just him staring at the night sky, I'm doing a little parallel with a movie I like a lot (Lilo and Stitch). Wheatley feels weird during a particularly calm night, a feeling close to "nostalgia", but, since he doesn't have any memory from his human life and his life as a demon is mostly short, he feels... weird, empty, but he doesn't know what to do about it, at the moment he doesn't trust anyone enough to talk about it.

(I made his wings too big there, but let's pretend I didn't)

Aaand last, but not least

Happy Eyebat Wheatley dancing at the radio music while thinking nobody's watching!!

An that's it for this time, hoping for you to've like this

See ya

Bye!!

Minimal Loss: Final Part

Pairing: Spencer Reid x Female!Reader

Word Count: ~1.6k

Summary: You and Spencer go undercover to a ranch that is run by a man who thinks he’s God. When you and Spencer are trapped there, you will do anything to protect him, even if it means putting yourself in danger.

Warnings: canon violence, canon language, canon talk of death, methods of kill

Author’s Note: I do not own anything from Criminal Minds. All credit goes to their respective owners. If there are any warnings that exceed the normal death/kills from the show, I will list them. If you’ve seen the show, then it’s the same level of angst unless otherwise stated

"Those of you that are standing, please collect your belongings and report to the front hallway immediately." Everyone who was called does as they're told, and they are released immediately. Now, all that's left are the true believers. When Rossi sees them leave, he calls Ben to thank him. "We will surrender tomorrow at noon. I want the press there to ensure that we're treated fairly. We'll discuss the details in our 7:00 AM call. I'll see you then, Dave."

"I look forward to it."

"Oh, one more thing. Could you send some food in?"

"Sure. What would you like?"

"Fried chicken and all the fixin's."

"You got it."

"I don't understand. Why did you let them go?" Chris asks once Ben hangs up.

"They weren't prepared to do what needs to be done," Spencer answers, but that angers Chris.

"You're not one of us. You don't know what it takes to be prepared!"

"Listen to him," Ben says calmly. "Tell him."

"They failed the test. They had a chance to prove their faith when Cyrus told them that they'd sacrifice themselves for God. Instead, they showed they weren't worthy. That's why he wants the media to bear witness to your true final act of sacrifice."

"How do you know that?"

"I'm always looking for signs of things to come."

Spencer knows Rossi can hear him talk, and he knows exactly what Spencer means.

"Reid's talking to us," Rossi states. "He wants a sign when we're coming in. He's telling us this is it. Time has run out. We've got to go in."

A large amount of food is brought in so that Rossi can bring it to Ben. His first thought is to drug it, but that won't work. He needs to get the message to you and Spencer about what time they are going in.

"Drugging the food is not an option because of the children. We have to go in," Hotch says.

"The best time to hit them is when they're least mentally prepared. Their biorhythm cycle is at its lowest at 3:00 am."

"We need a diversion. Something that plays into his expectations," Derek says.

"Whatever we're doing, the plan depends on Reid and Y/N separating the diehards from the followers, and delaying Cyrus's diehards from reacting to our assault," Rossi says.

"That's not my main concern. Reid and Y/N know what they need to do. My main concern is letting them know when we're coming. The whole thing hinges on them being ready for us at 3:00 am."

Instead of drugging the food, everyone plants tiny bugs inside the food that's small enough not to be noticed when or if eaten. The food takes some time to prepare, and it's after the sun goes down that they start to bring it in. You're lying in bed with your hands tied to the bedposts.

There are bugs everywhere, so you know if you start talking, they might be able to hear you. You lift your leg and reach out towards the blinds on the window. You fit your foot in between the blind and wiggle it just in case they are watching.

"If you guys can hear me, I know you're coming. I can try to get the women and children down to the tunnel, but I need to know when you're coming."

You repeat this phrase three times before you get something from them. Something shines on the wall, a red dot. Whoever is doing this has a laser pointed to the wall.

"Okay, I see you. What time are you coming?"

The red dot flashes three times on the wall, and since it's nighttime, you can only assume that they're coming at 3:00 am and not 3:00 pm.

"3:00 am?" you ask, and the red dot moves up and down as if the person is nodding. "Understood. Spencer is on the first floor somewhere with Ben. Please remember there are children here." You can hear someone walking down the hall, and you quickly move your leg back down. "Someone's coming."

Kathy comes into the room with a glass of water, and you lift her head as she helps you drink it. You're grateful for her kindness, but you need to get out of here.

"Kathy, Ben is planning a mass suicide. I know you made the 911 call."

"This is all my fault," she sighs. "None of this would have happened if I hadn't made that call."

"You were trying to protect your daughter."

"There were other girls before Jessie. He would marry them in secret, and after a while, he'd take another. We weren't permitted to speak of it, so when she asked for my consent, I wanted to just take her and run. I was afraid she wouldn't leave him."

"You wanted us to take her?"

"I wanted to save her from Cyrus."

You have to trust her because she is the only one here who can help you and your team out.

"I can give you another chance. The FBI is coming here at 3:00 am. I need you to gather Jessica, the kids, and the other women. Get them into the basement just before 3:00 am."

"Why are you telling me this?"

"Because I have faith that you are a strong enough woman to do the right thing for Jessica."

She quickly leaves, but you can feel her doubts for you. You groan in frustration and bang your head on the pillow. Did you make a mistake by telling her? You hope not. Minutes later, she comes back with a worried look on her face. She starts to untie you as quickly as she can.

"You were right. They're setting the place to blow up. I told Jessie that Cyrus wants her to gather the women and children."

"Where is the man I came in with?"

"He's in the chapel with Cyrus. It's 2:45 though. We gotta hurry."

There is no time to get Spencer right now, and Hotch would kill you if you chose him over saving everyone else. You two leave the bedroom and escape down to the basement where Jessica and the others are. She doesn't question it since she thinks Ben wants her to do this.

"Come on, right through here," you whisper and guide them into the back of the basement where the tunnels start.

That's where your team is going to come from. Fifteen minutes later, Derek, Rossi, Emily, and the tactical team come rushing in with guns raised. Derek sees you and immediately rushes over to you.

"Y/N, are you okay?"

"They've wired explosives. They're going to blow the place up."

"Come on, everyone. Let's go this way," Kathy says.

"Where's Reid?"

"He's in the chapel with Ben."

"We gotta get you out of here," Rossi says and grabs your arm.

"No," you panic. "I need to get Spencer. He's still in there. Please, it's not safe up there!"

You try to get out of Rossi's grip, but Derek stands in front of you to block your way.

"Y/N, I will get your boyfriend, okay? Get out of here. Get to safety."

"Cyrus didn't call for this," Jessica cries to her mother. "You lied to me!"

"No, Cyrus lied to you, honey."

"He's my husband!"

Jessica dodges everyone's attempts at keeping her here, and she rushes back into the church. Kathy screams out for her and tries to go after her, but Derek stops her as well.

"No! I will get her for you. Rossi, get them out of here. Torre, get your boys. Let's do this now."

Rossi and Kathy get all the women and children as Derek, Emily, Dan and his team rush up the stairs into the chapel. You have no choice but to leave Spencer and pray that he finds Spencer in time. Everyone files out of the chapel where Hotch, JJ, and the other team are waiting to collect them.

You turn back towards the chapel, but Rossi doesn't let go of your arm. He can't have you running back in there to save Spencer. Five minutes have passed, but it's the longest five minutes in the world. You have no clue what is happening inside the church, and unfortunately, you're about to.

You're this close to going inside of it yourself when the entire building explodes. You scream out for Spencer and jump into action, but Rossi wraps an arm around your waist to prevent you from running into the fire.

"No! Spencer!" you scream and cry. "Let me go! I have to find him!"

Just when you think you've lost the love of your life, you see two people emerge from the smoke. You shove Rossi off you and run over to Derek and Spencer who are coughing from the smoke. You run right into their arms with tears streaming down your face.

"We're okay," Derek coughs.

You let go of him, but pull Spencer closer to you. You have your arms wrapped around his neck and your face is buried into the side of it.

"I think all the kids are out," Hotch says.

"Where's Jessie?" Rossi asks, but all Derek can do is shake his head.

Jessica is dead as well as Cyrus, but all you can think about is Spencer and the fact that he is okay.

Spencer is safe. Spencer is okay. He's safe. You're okay.

The plane ride home is tense. Everyone wants to rest, but you and Spencer are sitting away from everyone else. He is dabbing some medicine onto your face, making sure to take care of you.

"Never do that again," he whispers.

"I need you to listen to me." You move his hands so you can look into his eyes. "It was my decision, Spencer. What Cyrus did to me was not your fault. I'd do it again if it means you're safe because that's what I do for the people I love. It was my choice, and I stand by that choice."

"I love you."

You lean up and kiss him slowly but passionately. Resting doesn't seem like a bad idea, and you pull away from his lips only to rest your head on his shoulder. He kisses the top of your head before resting his head on top of yours.

"어둠을 뚫고 빛나는 별들 안녕 우리는 오네리아"

“The stars who shine through the darkness, Hello we are Oneiria.!”

Oneiria

They debuted in 2022 when Soyeon was 22, Jisoo and Jiho were 21 and Minseok was 18.

Oneiria originally had 5 trainees, including the Final 4. However, the unnamed 5th trainee wasn't in the final lineup. This explains the gap between Jiho and Soyeon during the first few months of their debut when they greeted their fans.

Antis (They are mostly against Kim Soyeon)

Anti-fandom Name: Drowners (i died when i made this)

Anti-fans post unflattering photos and claim that Soyeon’s expressions are signs of arrogance, which leads to arguments among fans and negative media attention.

 Some anti-fans go further, accusing Kim Soyeon of being a “pick-me girl” who seeks attention from male fans. They misinterpret her confident demeanour and artistic choices, attributing them to a desire to please male fans, which creates a false narrative.

A group of anti-fans disrupt events where Soyeon is present. They shout offensive comments and even go as far as throwing objects, creating a hostile atmosphere for the artist and fans.

Minseok makes fun of the term “Drowners” all the time.

The overall concept of “Dreamscapes” is a musical journey through the spontaneous creativity of the members and the producer, capturing moments of inspiration and turning them into beautiful songs.

The title track, “Blossom,” suggests a theme of growth, renewal, and the beauty that comes with change. It could be a reflection on their journey in the music industry and how they’ve evolved and blossomed since their debut. The other tracks explore different aspects of the changing seasons.

The title track delves into the idea of secrets and quiet emotions shared in the night, capturing the hushed, intimate moments that occur when the world is still.

“Our first rock album! It’s part of our Dystopian AU if we were all still holding on to our grievances. Warning, this album is full of agony. Happy Anniversary, Oneiria.”

“Dystopia” by Oneiria presents a unique and intriguing concept, marking their 1st anniversary with a surprise 2nd full album. This album delves into a darker and more intense theme, creating a contrast with their previous releases. The title suggests a narrative that explores a world in chaos, perhaps highlighting societal issues or inner struggles.

The title track delves into a sense of despair, contemplating the idea of a world falling apart or disappearing. The other tracks further explore the themes of loss, pain, and emotional turmoil. “다른 세계” (Another World) introduces a sense of escapism, offering a glimpse into an alternative reality.

This album is their first rock album and is part of a Dystopian Alternate Universe (AU), where the members are still holding onto their grievances. It’s described as an album full of agony, indicating that the music and lyrics may touch on intense and emotional themes.

This marks a significant shift in Oneiria's music and concept with a thought-provoking and emotionally charged album that contrasts with their previous releases.

Theories on the Croaker's Goals

Theory #1:

The Croaker is entirely aware of his actions and acts independently. Possible, but unlikely given recent circumstances.

4/10

Theory #2:

The Croaker is being controlled by Vriska Serket. I noticed a lot of the anomalies in the Astral Plane (such as the Yellow Door) began to appear around the same time that the Croaker began to "kin" Vriska. My theory is that Strange Aeon's video caused such mental stress in the Croaker, that a foreign entity was able to infiltrate his mind, taking the identity of Vriska to cover their tracks; they now manipulate his actions toward their own ends through the promise of glorious Muppet Rapture and puppet sex. If this is the case, the Croaker is most likely under the impression that his actions are his own. As for "Vriska's" goals, I believe that they seek to use the Croaker's followers to open the four doors and release them from their Astral prison (but this is just speculation).

This theory does not account for entities such as the Horse God, The Distortion, or the Faceless, etc.

6/10

Theory #3:

This is all an elaborate ruse and none if this is real. Horrible theory, entirely impossible.

0/10

CHAERI'S MASTERLIST

Hi! Thank you so much for your request on the prompts game! let me know if you enjoyed it 🫶🏼

When night comes

❒ genre: Hurt/Comfort

❒ words: 1.9k+

❒ summary: In which Chaeri stays overnight at Hongjoong's for the first time

❒ pairing: Hongjoong x BTS8thmember!OC

❒ prompts requested: 2. "I've been thinking about you a lot lately" | 24. "I didn't want you to see me like this"

❒ warnings: Oc experiencing paranoia; nightmares; Slightly sexually suggestive

July/August 2022

The relationship between them had started off slow and gradually increased, as if it was the most natural thing in the world. What had begun as an impulsive act to upset Chaeri's group members, as well as rebel against the entertainment industry's flawed system, had developed into something more.

Chaeri hadn't anticipated being this drawn to Hongjoong; she hadn't expected to feel this way with anyone anymore. But it happened, and she was taken by surprise.

The day they had decided to take the plunge into a real relationship, the following weeks were full of excitement. Every time their lips touched it was like electricity running through both of them, washing away any remnants of the false connection they somehow created for the cameras. The kisses were passionate and lingering now, with no fear or doubt that this was real.

The one thing she refused to admit was that she was scared to spend the whole night with him at his dorms. It wasn't the thought of getting too intimate, seeing as it's natural for lovers to reach that level eventually. Rather, what terrified her was not knowing if her sudden episodes of paranoia would terrify him.

They had grown less frequent as she'd aged. It had been two years since her last episode of half-waking from sleep in a panic, convinced something was coming to hurt her. She had taken the advice of Namjoon and Suga, and sought out psychologists to help her work through the trauma that triggered those episodes—but never found success with any of them. Over time, however, she figured out how to lessen the chances of it happening. Perhaps she simply had to reassure herself that if she agreed to stay overnight with him after their date, the chances of it happening were almost 0.

The paparazzi had some kind of intuition when it came to her and Hongjoong's dates, as they would be outside waiting for her at the exact moment she left her car escorted by her security guards. She could hear cameras clicking from far away, trying to capture any details of their outing that they could find. But this did not bother her; she refused to let other people's opinions stop her from enjoying a date with her boyfriend. Instead, she decided to take matters into her own hands. As soon as newspaper websites with pictures of them together on dates were released, she searched through them until finding the one where she looked most beautiful, and then posted it on her instagram page—as if saying: no matter what anyone said about them, there was nothing stopping them from publicly being together.

The long boots helped frame her beauty, and as soon as she stepped within reach, Hongjoon wasted no time in putting his hand on the exposed skin between her shorts and knees. She embraced him tightly, nestling her 

arms around his neck to say hello with a passionate kiss

Not having seen each other in two weeks, their text messages made it clear that they had a strong yearning for one another, and had discovered desires that neither of them knew they had yet towards each other.

"I've been thinking about you a lot lately" Hongjoong pulled away from her lips just enough to speak to her, keeping his fingertips gently touching the softness of her skin as he spoke to her. 

Her vocal cords vibrated to a barely audible laugh "Respectfully or disrespectfully?" 

"I respectfully thought of you in a disrespectful way" 

Chaeri couldn't help but grin at his reply. She found it amusing how he could make her laugh, even in the most intimate moments. She kissed him again, this time with a hint of mischief in her eyes.

"Well, lucky for you, I have been thinking about some pretty disrespectful things too"

Perched on Hongjoong's bed, palms pressing into the mattress behind her, Chaeri held one leg over the other as he leaned forward to help her remove her boots. She had a crooked smile and one eyebrow raised, looking between amused and aroused when she spoke "You know," wetting her lips with her tongue, "I have a thing for men who kneel." 

Hongjoong smirked, meeting her gaze as he pulled off her boots after dropping to his knees in front of her. "Well, lucky for you, I have a thing for making my girlfriend happy" When he said the word 'girlfriend', it came out of his mouth with such tenderness, even though they were far from sweet at that moment. One would have thought that he had just uttered the most admirable thing in existence.

He also took the other boot off her foot, thus leaving her bare legs free.

She lifted one leg and rested it on his shoulder, as he leaned forward and placed soft kisses on her ankle, making her shiver with pleasure. His hands slowly caressed her legs, moving upwards until they reached the hem of her shorts, where he hooked his fingers.

His eyes stayed trained on her.

If she had shown even a shadow of hesitation, he would have left the room, creating the space that they both needed. Yet Chaeri held his gaze, giving him her approval.

The nights of Seoul during the summer were often unbearably hot and muggy, making it necessary to keep air conditioners running in order to stay cool. Yet, that night, Chaeri found a pleasant relief by the warmth of Hongjoong's presence by her side.

His bed was cramped and they fit perfectly side by side. It wasn't a bad thing; if anything, it made her feel better.

After a long day of work and the events of the night, she was utterly worn out. Sleep came easily to her. 

But her dreams began to be far from peaceful as soon as the warmth against her back faded away. Chaeri tossed and turned, plagued by nightmares that she couldn't seem to shake off. She sat up in bed in a cold sweat, breathing heavily, and on the verge of tears. 

The remnants of sleep still lingered in her mind, obscuring her vision with a hazy curtain as she attempted to separate dreams from reality. The two worlds blended together, overlapping until they were indistinguishable from one another.  

She tried to reach the rational thoughts in the back of her mind, but they kept slipping away as her eyes scanned the room in a paranoid, watchful way, as if at any moment a looming incubus might pop out of any corner.

She was alone in the room.

Chaeri's heart raced as she tried to calm herself down. She knew she was being irrational, but she couldn't help feeling like something was watching her. She clutched the sheets tightly, her eyes scanning the room for any signs of danger.

Then, she heard a sound coming from the living room. It was a soft rustling noise, like someone was moving around. She froze, her heart pounding in her chest. Had someone broken into the dorm?

An inner voice screamed that yes, she was not paranoid, that someone had definitely managed to get into the dormitory, that she wouldn't have enough time to make an escape before they reached her. 

In that moment of panic and fear, Chaeri could feel her thoughts spiraling out of control. Her mind conjured up images of violent intruders who wanted nothing more than to hurt her. 

Slowly, she pushed herself out of bed, her bare feet touching the cool wooden floor. She crept to the door, her ears straining for any sound. 

As she reached for the doorknob, her hand shook with fear. She didn't know what was waiting for her on the other side. Logic told her that it was probably Hongjoong, that she was just being paranoid, but fear had a way of distorting reality. 

Her fingers finally closed around the doorknob, and she turned it slowly, her heart pounding in her chest. The door creaked open, revealing the darkened living room. She squinted in the dim light, trying to make out any shapes in the darkness.

Suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed her wrist, making her gasp in fright. She immediately released herself from the grip 

"Chaeri, it's me," Hongjoong's voice said "What's wrong? Why are you up?"

Her lips set to say something else, but what came out was "I think someone broke into the house" 

Hongjoong's face went pale, and he pulled her into the living room as he shut the door behind them. "Is anyone else in here?" Chaeri shook her head, blinking a few times to wake herself up. "No. Out of the room" she replied, avoiding his gaze. She was obviously scared, like he had never seen her before.

"There's--there's no one there, Chaeri. I've just been through the house with Seonghwa. Everything is closed. Maybe you heard us and thought it was someone else"

She was almost unresponsive and stopped looking at him and once again, lost in her thoughts. Her eyes wandering the room, looking for the person she thought she heard breaking into the house or perhaps a way out that was not predictable

Hongjoong gently cupped her cheeks, forcing her to look at him "Chaeri...are you ok? are you awake?"

Chaeri's eyes finally locked onto him and tears streamed down her face "I-I don't know Hongjoong," she sobbed "Did I scare you?" She didn't wait for his answer, her voice trembling as she continued speaking, shaken by sobs "I'm sorry," she whispered "I just...I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm usually not like this. I swear. I'm not like this" she choked with emotion

Hongjoong pulled Chaeri into a tight embrace, holding her close as she cried against his chest. He knew that this was unlike her, and he wanted to know what had led her to be so vulnerable "It's okay, baby. You didn't scare me," he said softly, his hand gently rubbing her back. "I'm here for you. I won't let anything happen to you"

Chaeri clung to Hongjoong, her body shaking with sobs. She felt embarrassed and ashamed for her outburst, but she couldn't help the fear that had consumed her. 

He held her until her sobs subsided, his arms creating a safe haven for her. He was patient and spoke in a way that was calming, his words slowly bringing her from the anxious thoughts running through her head.

After a while, Chaeri pulled away, wiping her tears with the back of her hand. She looked up at Hongjoong, her eyes still filled with fear. "I didn't want you to see me like this"

Hongjoong shook his head, a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "It's okay, Chaeri. I'm here for you, no matter what" He paused for a moment before continuing, "But maybe we should talk about what's been bothering you"

At long last, Hongjoong had managed to soothe her back to sleep. After two hours of tears, excuses, apologies, and difficult heart-breaking conversations, he was finally able to lie down beside the woman he cherished. Her breathing had evened out, indicating that she had been granted reprieve from her nightmares - at least for now.

He wasn't sure how to handle this situation, but he was determined to do everything in his power to rid her of those dark dreams that infested her.

[gaemms-chamois]

random unorganized darknights trio + paprika musings bc sometimes i'm hit with like a pang of Brief Worry that i'm completely misinterpreted blabla that usually doesn't last too long bc i then go back to my state of I'm Just Vibing but ig at some point i just gotta let it out publicly once and be done with it lol

this is messily written Please Understand this isn't meant to be a grand thought piece

fuuuck ok well this is like very specifically abt the w, ines & paprika part now

like don't get me wrong on this. i joke abt wines moms and stuff but i dont genuinely mean it in the way of wahh wow littol family for reals kinda deal?

less on wines 'adopting' paprika, moreso paprika imprinting on them like a duckling after she was saved by them. paprika adopted them lmao. i cannot possibly interpret either w or ines as Maternal in such a way.

it's moreso that i think it's nice that this little sarkaz merc became part of the story, a girl who all her life since she was infected at a young age, was presented with becoming a mercenary being basically the only option for her.

and then, as annoying as w can be, being shown that she does have different options.

i just think it's sweet that paprika, judging by her voicelines, clearly looks up to w and ines. which is just amplified by the fact that w and ines are notoriously not the most popular people on rhodes lol. and she calls w annoying but still keeps knitting stuff and wanting to gift food to her. like if she often seeks out w and ines to tell them how well she did on something, when they are on the ship, etc. that'd at least indicate that those two humor her.

ALSO IT'S UNOFFICIAL BUT SHOUTOUT TO THAT LITTLE CHUZENJI ART WITH PAPRIKA AND W, INES & TOTTER WEARING KNITTED HATS SO CUTE

OKAY WOO DARKNIGHTS MERCENARY TRIO AND STUFF

cool yeah obviously i fucking love them. i'm not very good at words though and i tend to keep my more elaborate thoughts to just discussions between friends who know how i tick djsfhdfs

just the other day i was smiling to myself during a walk bc holy shit all three are actually playable now and that's not just wishful thinking anymore. anyway chapter 13 also happened and more stuff with the trio happened and Cool Lots of things Happening and my brain is full

they're so found family to me, like in an utterly unconventional way. i mean c'mon with how they act sometimes like- ykno. but like have y'all seen the new furniture set and descriptions that came with hoederer's release it made me go insanse.

but i think especially in ines' case it just kinda highlights that best. considering ines' arts can figure people out (putting that in rather vague terms), it truly means something when someone with her capabilities and temperament has people she chooses to stick by and actually trust. even if she pretends she doesn't by verbally denying it.

like waugh Okay they have a lot to unpack and shit but with them being reunited (take that, W file that said W needs companionship but her friends aren't around anymore) and having a COMPARATIVELY more ""relaxed"" life than before (that one Hoederer file where he just has rather regular days on rhodes), it's just nice to imagine they can finally have something better and figure stuff out. as complicated as the three of them are.

with that said i think it's a given that i despise a nuclear family treatment of the three (aka mom ines, dad hoederer, daughter w).

for one with me being highly doubtful w was a kid/teen at the start of darknights (young? sure, but not that young), which just seems like such a...widespread belief that i really do not get? arknights always put a LOT of emphasis on when a character's story was about them being a kid, 0 of that with w. like something about her expression and big cloak just gave people some different impression, even though she literally keeps looking the same aside from a change of clothes. only instance of w being called a kid during that time i can think of is that one boiler worker in her files but that seems way more like any typical old guy calling anyone on the younger side a kid. hell, even hoederer was called young in darknights, like in a sarkaz's lifespan i can believe that.

and also...hoederer had somewhat of a mentor-like role for w, but if anyone tries to tell me ines ever acted maternal towards w i will chew through your walls. read through darknights memoir and actually pay attention to ines, both w AND ines were pettyass women and they made that so very clear. cannot fathom how anyone can see ines as having been motherly towards w

seriously just feels like a case of Well there is man and there is woman....and this other character so clearly these are mom, dad and kid.

that's not even me being biased towards w/ines, just how i objectively see it. hell, i even ENJOY ines/hoederer, but my enjoyment of it is limited bc for some reason ppl like to make it weird by shoving w in as some daughter. i promise it's completely possible to like ines/hoederer without trying to fit in w as a kid figure

anyways yeah like cool i like these characters I Guess. Look at them

congrats on the audiobook release! from what I've heard so far, Lance did an amazing job 👀

just out of interest, how much of the audiobook sales go to yourself and Lance/the voice acting agency (idk how it works)? because Spotify is .... a little dicey with their sales proportions for artists, and I'd like to support y'all as much as possible :D

have a great day ✨️🪽

Thank you so much! I'm listening to most of it for the first time, and Lance did amazingly! I love his Lucifer toward the end :)

The audiobook was done through Tantor Media, who bought the rights, which means I (and Lance, I believe) were paid in advance! I'll be getting $0 from royalties until Tantor has made back the money they paid me (my advance), maybe in a year or several.

For full transparency — if you want to know because you're an author or you're just curious — Tantor's advance to me was 12k, which my agent took a cut of. This is very good, though I should said I was originally offered only about... 1k, but my agent was able to push the advance a lot further because another audio company also wanted the rights. I believe Lance was paid decently as well (especially given ABM's length).

So don't worry! I've been paid more than enough! Please enjoy listening :)
