#POG SO COOL HELLO

Pog Champ

Fandom: Stranger Things (Gamer/Streamer/Modern AU)

Pairing: Eddie Munson x F!Reader

Summary: You're a Twitch streamer and have been looking to collab with other streamers. You decide to message some of the streamers you watch and follow. To your surprise, some of them reply and agree for a collab. One of those people being Eddie Munson. Based off my imagine here.

A/N: I guess it's a mini series because I didn't want this to end up being a long ass oneshot! So it'll be like 3-5 parts....

Eddie Munson Masterlist

Now that you've grown in your following and viewership, you've hired a team to help you work through the industry. Your manager and publicist both suggested that you start reaching out to streamers that you watch for some collaborations.

You've dm'ed many streamers and influencers. Some have declined, which was a little disheartening. But there were also some that agreed and you worked to schedule something.

One of them was EddieTheBanished aka Eddie Munson. He was big in the RPG community, playing games like World of Warcraft, Dark Souls, or even streaming his own D&D campaign with some of his friends and mods.

You've always wanted to get into D&D but didn't know anyone who played. You took this opportunity to message him on twitter:

CyberCat: hey! I've been following you for a whi-

You pause and start deleting your message and restart again:

CyberCat: hello! i'm messaging you to talk-

No no. It's giving "I wanna take a minute to talk about your car's extended warranty."

"Uuuuggghh!" You throw your head back onto your pillow, staring up at your ceiling.

Just be casual. It's no big deal...except it was because you're kind of a fan of Eddie's and you enjoy his streams.

You just decide to type out:

CyberCat: Hi Eddie! I'm a streamer and I enjoy your content. Wanna collab some time?

Send.

You toss your phone to the foot of your bed like it was on fire. Okay. You did it.

You decide to slide off your bed and head to your streaming desk in the corner of your room. Time to play some games and stream just to drown away your anxiety and anticipation.

__________________

It's Thursday which means it's Eddie's day off from streaming. However, he's still in his streaming room, but he's sitting at his desk strumming his guitar trying to figure out the next verse of the song he's working on.

He's been stumped on this song for a while. He started it weeks ago, but still hasn't finished it. Aside from streaming, music was another one of his passions. He didn't really share this side of himself too much online. But everyone who knew him in real life knew about his love for music, specifically metal and heavy rock.

Eddie lets out a long, deep sigh as he erases another line of lyrics. Frustrated, he places his guitar to the side and picks up his phone.

He taps on twitter and immediately goes to the mentions tab. He sees that he's been tagged in a tweet of a Twitch clip.

He taps on it and it's you, a streamer that he watches and follows, talking, "Yeah so I DM'ed a few streamers for collabs because my team says I should start dipping my toes into collabs." You pause and read off chat, "Who did I DM?"

You cover your mouth with a smirk, "I don't think I should say." You read chat again, "Give you some names? Okay, fuck it, I highly doubt they'd see this! So, I DM'ed Tinakitten, CinnaBrit, MayaHiga, oh, and EddieTheBanished! And tbh, guys, I was the most nervous about DM'ing Eddie. Because I really-okay I watch all of the streamers I named, but I resonate more with Eddie's content. He's cool and funny and he plays Dungeons and Dragons! I've always wanted to learn how to play. So yeah, I don't think he'll see my DM though."

The clip ends and Eddie immediately goes to his DMs. He taps on the "Verified" tab and sees that your DM is the first one at the top. He sees your message and can't help but smile. You're a fan of him and he's a bit of a fan of yours as well. So this is a little surreal for him.

Before he responds, he wants to see if you're still streaming. He pulls up your Twitch account and you have a little under three thousand viewers. You have always had a good amount of people in your community.

Your face pops up. You had just started stream and so you're just chatting with chat.

"Okay, so we have a few things on the list of what I can do for these collabs. What else do you have for me, guys, come on! Lay it on me!"

You're wearing headphones with cat ears on them, an homage to your Twitch username CyberCat.

Your eyes are skimming through the messages that are coming through and your eyes widen, "Wait, why are you guys saying 'Hi, Eddie'?! Please don't tell me he's here!" You hide your face with your hands for a moment, "Oh God. You guys sent him a clip, didn't you?!"

Eddie chuckles and decides to type in chat:

EddieTheBanished: people tagged me in your clip on twitter.

"Goddammit! Guys, I told you not to! You fucking traitors!"

Eddie snorts and types another message:

EddieTheBanished: so about this collab, what did you have in mind?

"What did I have in mind? Well, I mean, if you're down, maybe you can hold a D&D oneshot campaign with me? I've always wanted to play and I don't know anyone who's played. You're also like the number one Twitch streaming DM, in my opinion."

EddieTheBanished: I'm down. I'll reply to your twitter DM with my discord and we can flush out the details there.

"O-Okay! Sounds good!"

EddieTheBanished: have a good rest of your stream!

"Thanks so much! Have a good day!"

Before closing Twitch, he decides gift a hundred subs.

"Holy fuck! Eddie??? What the fuck! Thank you for the one hundred subs! Holy shit! You didn't have to do that!"

Your praises can't help but make Eddie feel pretty good about himself.

He simply sends a winky face in chat and then leaves.

_______________________________

You end stream feeling like you're floating. EddieTheBanished, aka Eddie Munson, agreed to collab with you and you're STOKED!

You check your DM's and see that he replied with his discord. You add him as a friend and message him:

CyberCat: so you're serious about the collab right? because if you're not, then i'm gonna be super fucking bummed.

EddieTheBanished: I am serious! Are you serious about dipping your toes in D&D.

CyberCat: absolutely. i've watched your campaign streams and it looks so fun and chaotic!

EddieTheBanished: Alright. I'm going to send you a character sheet for you to fill out. If you have questions, just let me know, or we can set up a time to call and I'll walk you through it.

CyberCat: I'll fill it out the best that I can and then hit you up when I'll need help.

EddieTheBanished: [thumbs up]

You stare at your computer in amazement. You just scored your first collab and it's with one of your favorite streamers. Holy shit!

____________________________

For the next few weeks, you and Eddie were messaging each other back and forth. It was mainly you asking questions about the stats of your character, which would be best pertaining to the species you chose, etc.

He was very kind and helpful, not to mention he was funny. When you weren't streaming, you often found yourself giggling at your phone because of something Eddie texted.

What started off as a superficial crush started to develop into a real life one, but you couldn't let yourself become delusional. Eddie is, if anything, just an acquaintance, and he would probably never see you as something more. Especially since you two never even met in person and have only been chatting for two weeks.

No. This can't become something more.

___________________________

Eddie's face appears on screen and he waves, "Sup losers!" he exclaims while Metallica plays at a low volume in the background.

"Okay, so that oneshot D&D session with CyberCat is happening today. So be on your best behavior!" he points at the camera with a stern look, "We wanna make a good impression, right?!"

PreciousBlorboBoy: if she can handle you then she can handle us.

Eddie narrows his eyes at the screen, "Blorbo, what the fuck's that supposed to mean, huh?!"

There's a bunch of KEKW, LMAOs, and peepo laugh emotes in the chat.

TearStainedGuitar: isn't she a fan of yours? so she should know how we are!

"Regardless! I wanna make sure she has a good experience here, okay?! This is her first collab as a streamer so it's a big deal. Plus...she's cool. So we have to be cool too."

MysticBiter: dude is so stressed about this collab

"I'm not stressed! I just wanna make sure CyberCat's first collab stream is good!"

PreciousBlorboBoy: guys he's blushing so hard.

"I'M NOT BLUSHING!"

He hears the familiar ding from Discord letting him know that you joined the call.

"Who's blushing?" you ask.

"No one! No one's blushing!" He quickly replies.

You chuckle, "Okaaaay?"

He nervously clears his throat, "SO you wanna introduce yourself to my chat while I set this up?"

"Sure!" You clear your throat and begin the introduction, "Hi everyone! I'm CyberCat. You can call me Cat or Y/N. I also stream on Twitch. I'm a variety gamer and I like to play games like Fortnite, Animal Crossing, Infinity Nikki, Valorant, stuff like that. Other than gaming, I love blind boxes, reading, going to cafes, and thrifting! Uuuuhhh, was there anything else you wanted me to say, Eddie?"

"I'm still setting up the screenshare sooo, uh, tell us what you're currently reading?"

"...I don't think I should say."

Eddie pauses and smirks, "Is it fairy porn?"

"HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE FAIRY PORN?!"

Chat is flooded with "?????", "HUUUUUH?" and "AYO??"

He cackles, "I've seen TikToks, I know that some of you book girls are into freaky stuff."

"TO BE FAIR, I don't explicitly read fairy porn...I read other stuff like-"

"Alien porn?" Eddie finishes with a snicker.

"No! Oh my God. Stop it!"

"Relax, Cat. I'm just messing with you. You ready for this?"

"Yeah! Let's do this!"

______________________

Your POV

"Hello hello!" you wave at your camera, "You guys ready for my first ever collab stream?"

Your chat fills with emotes of chibi you cheering and smiling.

"Good! I'm glad! So, this goes without saying that we need to make a good impression. So if you chat hop, don't be weird or mean. Gotta make a good impression with Eddie and his community. Got it?"

EchoKnight: you nervous?

"Kinda! I mean, Eddie and I have been messaging each other on the side. He helped me create my character and answered all my questions. Oh God, I was being SO annoying to him. Just bombarding him with questions! But he was always so nice and understanding, so I don't feel as nervous as I felt when I first asked him to collab with me."

ZeniPenny: is it weird since you'd watch him on twitch and now you're collabing?

"Not really? I mean, I've gotten to know him more than like just what he's showed and talked about on stream. So that's cool. Anyway, it's getting close to the start time so I'm gonna hop into the Discord call."

"-BLUSHING!"

Your brows furrow, "Who's blushing?" you ask.

"No one! No one's blushing!" He quickly replies.

You chuckle, "Okaaaay?" You click around, setting up the video call on Discord. You have a duel camera setup. One on your face and one pointing down at your desk, focusing on your deskmat and the various dice.

He nervously clears his throat, "SO you wanna introduce yourself to my chat while I set this up?"

"Sure!" You clear your throat, sitting up in your chair more, staring at the screen, "Hi everyone! I'm CyberCat. You can call me Cat or Y/N. I also stream on Twitch. I'm a variety gamer and I like to play games like Fortnite, Animal Crossing, Infinity Nikki, Valorant, stuff like that. Other than gaming, I love blind boxes, reading, going to cafes, and thrifting! Uuuuhhh, was there anything else you wanted me to say, Eddie?"

"I'm still setting up the screenshare sooo, uh, tell us what you're currently reading?"

You pause, rolling you lips inward, "...I don't think I should say."

Eddie asks, "Is it fairy porn?"

You slam your hands on your desk and exclaim into your mic, "HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE FAIRY PORN?!"

Your chat floods with question marks, LMAOs, and a blushing peepo emote.

Eddie cackles in response, "I've seen TikToks, I know that some of you book girls are into freaky stuff."

You shake your head, "TO BE FAIR, I don't explicitly read fairy porn...I read other stuff like-"

"Alien porn?" Eddie finishes with a snicker.

"No!" you run your hands down your face, "Oh my God. Stop it!" you could feel your cheeks heating up in embarrassment.

ZeniPenny: ...i'm getting secondhand embarrassment

You mute yourself on Discord to scold chat, "Chat, shut the fuck up! We're not bringing this up ever!"

You hear Eddie, "Relax, Cat. I'm just messing with you. You ready for this?"

You unmute yourself to respond, "Yeah! Let's do this!"

lvl 5. - maidenless [smau + written 367 words]

========= stream starting soon =========

The bright gleam of the ring light blinds heeseung as his stream starts up. his light is on, mic is muted, and food is on its way as chat begins to flood onto his “starting soon” page. checking the countdown timer, he has two minutes all to himself before officially going live. heeseung smiles to himself as he watches chat talking amongst themselves.

otvfan07: hello !!!

🜲 nightwingsbooty: hi chat

yunjinlover: :wave: 

pikachuus: hihi

looking at the countdown one last time, heeseung moves a strand of hair before the clock finally reaches zero. switching the scene on his stream deck, his face suddenly fills up his second monitor as he moves to unmute his mic. “yo, hi, welcome everyone!...hihi, oh what song is playing?, uhhh it is, ‘give me your forever’ by zack tabudlo…yea i like that song haha”

“ah, ‘what’s the plan for today?’, well,” clapping his hands together, “today we are going to be playing a little bit of valo but we’re going to have our usual thirty minutes of just chatting first” as heeseung’s eyes scan through chat he notices a particular question, “‘did i see somi’s new tweet?’ mm not yet let me pull it up now…ah okay we can bring plus ones to the streamer awards...oh am i going to bring anyone? hmm i don’t know chat, we’ll see, we’ll see”

“woah woah woah idk guys, you really think you can handle all of this…” heeseung begins to regret everything as his chat is filled with nothing but silence in the form of three small dots, finally loosing his cool when all he can see is the flush emote times ten “haha anyways imma start warming up now, i just saw jake in chat, and i CANNOT let him rank higher than me”

Long Live the King

Chapter 1: Fallen Swords

Read Fantasy Masks | Read Swapboys | Read the first FM adventure | Other Multiverse Adventures | Read on AO3 (AN: Hello everyone!! I hope you are as excited as we are for a full Fantasy Masks Adventure with the Swaps! Just a quick heads up in terms of timeline this is after SITCV but before SATCV! But that's really all you need to know since this was our second rp like ever! Hope you guys enjoy and strap in! This is a long journey! :3) ◈━◈━◈━◈━◈

“Alt!! These aren’t authentic!!” Chase whines, pulling on his tunic that closely resembled the one he wore the few days they stayed in Glasúil. “They’re gonna be able to tell!! These are machine stitched!” 

Alt rolled his eyes, dressed similarity to how he was before too, phantom mask around his neck. He looked up from the spells he was reviewing, “Chase…I know you’re a superhero. But, neither of us make enough to afford accurately-made, custom, medieval clothing!” 

Jackie grinned from where he was sitting crossed legged on the couch. “Well- I still think you’re both super nerds for already dressing up!” 

The Brody brothers both glare at Jackie. 

Dr. J tsks quietly, shaking his head. “I think it’s admirable,” He said. The good doctor was still getting used to having a voice again, after so long believing he couldn’t speak. So, he spoke constantly like he was trying to be the most model library guest ever. But, at least he was slowly healing from whatever Mag did to fuck with his head. “That kind of passion is rare these days, it should be embraced!” 

“Even if it’s cringe?” Jackie teased. 

Chase threw a pillow at him, “like you’re not cringe about superheroes, dork!” 

“Both of you are cringe! How bout that?!” Alt snapped with a look of annoyance. 

“Ah friends can we please not do the fighting?” Henny asked nervously. “This trip is for ah- bonding… is it not?” 

The other boys looked at each before Alt sighed with a smile. “yeah, you’re right Hen. Thanks for the reminder.” He shot a pointed look at Jackie and Chase. “Iii think I’m done with preparation, if you guys wanna gather round.” Alt says, shutting his book and arranging stuff on the coffee table. The boys all crowded around as Alt explained: “Okay- these bracelets are attuned with runes- they should try to find each other. They’ll glow when one of us are near- and if you press the gem and say loonu then I’ll show you a path to the nearest signal. Blue means you're close, green is far away. It should work there since it’s connected to my magic… that way, we can hopefully find each other quickly! And! I got a universal translation spell on there too- it might struggle a bit but it should help until we can find Marvin…” 

Jackie winces slightly at the name but nods. “Pog~! sounds like you thought of everything, Alt!” 

Alt smiles shyly and shrugs, “Well- we’re kinda experts on this now, I’ll say~!” 

“You sure you got the right code, bro?” Chase asks, watching as Alt pulls out the TRVLR. 

The Glitch nods and smiles, “Yeah. I even tried to double check with Anti… the UF prefix should be correct!” He scrolls through his favorited list and finds the one he’s looking for: UF-0606021FM. 

Bro can’t help but excitedly stim, securing his bracelet on his wrist as he watches the rest of his friends do the same. “Guys this is gonna be so much fun!! We can get fresh air and Jackie, the fantasy Jackie said we can teach you to sword fight like he taught me! And Jay, you’ll love learning stuff from fantasy Henrik and and Henny! I bet you’ll love seeing the language and the sights and-!” 

Alt laughs and nudges Chase playfully, “Breathe, bro. Don’t pass out before we even get there!” 

Jackie grins, “Yeah dude- don’t worry. I tease but… I’m stoked! This is gonna be super cool!” 

Dr. J nods with a kind smile. “I am quite excited to see the place you all have been so enamored with. Maybe learning the history too… if it has any connection to our world here… well… beside the obvious.” He chuckles. 

Henny laughs and prances on his feet. “I am just glad my new ear thingys are working! Hopefully I will not be too lost! I want to experience this new world as best as I can!!” Then he frowns and anxiously messes with his vest. “Though… it will be… strange… without Sahne.”

Alt looks back at Henrik with sympathy. “…I get it Hen… it’ll be weird without Glitches… as much as I wanna bring her it’s just… not safe for them. They could get lost really easily…” 

Henrik sighs dramatically, “yes yes… I know…” he almost whines, crossing his arms. 

Jackie leans over by Alt with a smirk. “at least they’re in good hands though! A nurse’s hands~ which you would know allll about, right, Alt~?” He grins cheekily and Alt blushes before finding the pillow Chase threw earlier and stuffing it against Jackie’s face, pushing him down into the couch. Jackie laughs and tries to push him off. “Hey! What?? Am I wrong?!!” 

Alt glitches away and pretends to check the TRVLR idly, schooling his expression into something neutral. “Okay well- Jackie’s not coming then-“ 

“What?! Hey Alt, c’mon man! I was joking!!” Jackie cries out, hopping to his feet. Then he pauses as he sees Alt trying to hide his grin. “…yer an asshole-“ 

“Love you too, Jackie~” Alt replies cheekily before picking up his bag and securing his jacket around his waist. “Alright gents! We ready?” 

As the group of friends prepares to jump, a shadow slinks across the wall, eyes narrowing. His puppets were planning to jump to another dimension without him? Well… that wasn’t going to happen. Magnificent had a score to settle with that arrogant Royal… he would get that thing’s head on a spike. As his cub gathers everyone around and explains how the jump works, Mag slinks his presence closer… he can’t give himself away too early. Then, that annoying apprentice of his would notice and this would all be for naught. Patience… he had nothing but patience. 

Like a cat stalking its prey, he watched. He waited. He sees the Hero seem to stiffen, looking around the room with narrowed eyes. 

Alt pauses his explanation, just as Henny is taking the glitch’s hand to start a chain with the others. “…Chase? Is something wrong?” 

Luckily for Mag though, Chase looks back at the younger brother and smiles quickly. “Hm? Yeah yeah no it’s fine! Just.. thought I… felt something-“ 

Alt glitches a bit nervously but returns the smile. “Well- maybe it’s the wind? Or nerves… but it’s gonna be fine! We’re prepared this time!” 

Chase laughs, proud to see Alt confident and not paranoid for once. He really was getting stronger and stronger. “Yeah- you’re right. C’mon! We’re wasting sunlight over there- probably!” He takes Jackie’s hand to complete the circle. 

“Jesus… this feels like a prayer circle-“ Jackie mutters, “or like- those sharing things they make the kids do.” 

Dr. J nudges him, “Jackie- Alt probably needs to concentrate. Show a little more decorum, hm?” 

Alt laughs, “It’s fine- this is like second nature now!” He grins with confidence and powers on the device, moving his finger to the jump button and- 

Now’s his chance! As Alt charges his magic into the device, Mag lashes out of hiding and appears in the circle, grabbing Alt’s wrist holding the TRVLR and sinking his magic in to try to get a hold of him. “Going without me, Alt? Well that simply won’t-!”

He expects banter, surprise and Alt attempting to glitch- 

He did not expect the screaming. 

Magnificent startles back as Alt- and soon after, Chase, starts to scream bloody murder, their eyes quickly filing with corruption as their backs arc and bodies spasm like they’re being shocked. The black magic Mag tried to use to control Alt’s magic and the TRVLR goes haywire and backfires- lighting the room up with purple light as it tries to fight Alt’s blue-green. But Alt’s magic is quickly losing, the room growing dark. The apartment fades away into black- and the green orbs that start to appear as the group feels like they’re falling glitch and flicker with static. The black air around Alt and Bro seems to shatter like glass and purple fills their eyes completely. And then… just as soon as it starts- the screaming stops- and the connection starts to pull them apart- taking the now seemingly passed out and glassy eyes Brodys away into the darkness. The air fills with the horrible sound of static. 

Jackie, Dr. J and Henny try to cry out for them- Magnificent covers his ears against the grating sound- And then they’re all falling into fragmented, broken black- tv static and purple staining the way.

◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈

When Alt falls into Glasuil- it’s not a smooth fall like all the times he’s jumped before. No, its painful. Something is being ripped from him- rewritten. He falls onto his hands and knees, gasping for breath like he just broke the surface of the water after drowning. Then, he bites back a cry as he curls up towards the ground, his body glitching wildly. But, it’s not how he usually glitches. It’s like… the world- the air around him… is spiking- glitching… fragmenting into him like shards of stained glass. Glitching Into his brain. His being- his soul. Everything is tinted purple. It’s hard to form thoughts at all as he dazedly falls to the ground completely, like a rag doll. His glassy eyes stare out at nothing as purple flashes and glitches in his eyes. And when this phenomenon is done… his eyes seem to gray. They’re still his, still the same colors, central heterochromia and all. But they’re less vibrant. Like… something is missing.

Alt has landed in the middle of a small courtyard garden filled with bushes and flowers. There are stone walls surrounding this green space, with arches leading to the interior of the building. Standing at one of these arches is a pair of helmet-wearing warriors. The tunics they wear over their chainmail are black, with a design of a green-striped shield with a blue circle in the center. Despite their helmets hiding their eyes it’s clear that they’re looking at Alt. They glance at each other, unsure, then back at him. One puts a hand on a sword by their side.

For a scarily long time, Alt doesn’t move, his brain too scrambled to even process where he is or who’s in front of him. Then, suddenly he sits up and gasps again, blinking rapidly as he takes in the garden. He shakily pushes himself to his feet, body glitching just slightly- enough that he doesn’t seem to take notice. “…w..where… am I…?” He asks quietly. Then, he freezes, finally taking in the sight of the warriors. He shakily steps back, eyes wide. 

Though once he’s on his feet… the warriors can recognize a white mask around his neck, marked just like the other Masked Phantoms. 

The moment the warriors see the mask they stiffen slightly. The other one also reaches for their sword. "Fanann keart," one of them says. Which, somehow, Alt knows means "Stay right there." 

There's a faint flash of green light somewhere inside the building. And soon a man walks out into the corridor. He wears fine clothes, including a green cloak with the hood down. Brown hair is held back by a golden circlet. He looks at Alt with emerald green eyes. "Bhuel. Didhui aan." Again, Alt knows this to mean "Well. Hello there."

Alt is trying not to panic, trying to figure out why his heart is beating so fast and his body feels like it’s made of lightning. But his head is so- fuzzy. He… he can’t seem to remember… anything…! Everything feels wrong..! But he doesn’t know why! He feels his breath leave him as the king steps into the courtyard. He staggers back, panic clear in his eyes. “A-aan Rith…!” He whispers. 

And the King is surprised to see… he doesn’t need a translation spell. The boy is speaking Glasish. But, this is a far cry from the last time the king laid eyes on Alt Brody. This boy doesn’t look like the powerful lightning bird he saw before, blessed by the Elders. He looks… lost and confused. And based on what he knows… his mind doesn’t seem fully intact. Something has happened… something had messed with his memories. And fate… has delivered him straight to his castle. 

The King blinks, momentarily confused. Out of curiosity he reaches out to Alt's memories to see what led him here... and finds only scattered pieces where there is usually a continuous stream of consciousness. How... unusual. Something definitely happened, perhaps something magical in origin. But one thing is clear. This man does not know anything. Nothing important at least. An idea sparks in his mind. 

As Alt stares at the king, his fuzzy brain can only register one thing: danger. He can hardly even remember his name… there’s so many of them floating around in his head. But, He knows he can’t stay here! The mask around his neck seems to be the only truly solid thing he can remember… The Masked Phantoms. And the King wants the Masked Phantoms dead. Then, one more solid thing comes back to him. He has magic…! The fuzziness he feels in his limbs that spark like fire confuses him to no end but- he tries to dig into that feeling. Maybe he can use it to get away! His eyes flicker to the empty space behind the King in the corridor- before he tries to appear behind him to run. 

The King reaches out to him but--right, he forgets this man can [imíonosht]. Glishing, as he called it. Alt disappears before the King can reach him. He whirls around, silently commanding his warriors to block off the nearest entrance, but to not appear hostile. They do so instantly. 

"Alt," the King says, trying to sound more calming than he usually does. "What's wrong?" The result is a bit stilted, but the main point--non-hostility--gets across.

Alt stumbles as he finishes glitching and looks down at his fizzling and popping hands with confusion. “W-what kind of magic is this…?!” He whispers to himself. Like he doesn’t recognize it. He stiffens as the king speaks and whips around, looking at him with wide eyes. His hand reaches back on instinct, curling around something in his pocket. It feels weird but… Alt’s brain dimly reminds him it’s a knife. He doesn’t draw it though, he just looks at the King with panicked eyes. “Y..you… you know… my name…?” He asks quietly, as if he’s not even sure of it. This could be very very bad. 

Hazy memories float around his head- he’s crossed paths with the King before. But… he knows his face- his name. He could be killed. He swallows shakily and flips out his knife, then seems surprised for a second at the mechanics of it. But, he holds out the knife at the King and warbles out, “W-What are you playing at?” He tries to growl, but it falls flat. “W-Why are you t-talking like you know me?” 

The warriors tense up again when Alt pulls a knife on their ruler, but the King holds out a hand, ordering them to wait. "Because I do know you," he says calmly. "You don't remember? It was a very brief encounter, and I'm afraid I didn't make the best impression." He flashes a smile, drawing on some of Aodhan's tattered personality to try and make it warm. Again, the result is a bit awkward, giving Alt the impression that this man before him isn't used to genuinity but is trying. "There was a fight. But I have no desire to fight you now. Something is clearly wrong. Did something happen...? Do you remember what?"

Alt starts to lower the knife, even as he stares at the King with a guarded expression. But… that smile- and the concern in his voice. Alt can’t help but let the truth fall from his lips. “I…I don’t.. know-“ He answers quietly. Purple flashes and glitches in his eyes again and he hisses in pain and grabs at his head, dropping his knife. Alt pants through the pain that follows and shakily breathes. “S-something… I-is missing I… I don’t… I can’t remember a-anything…!” Now he starts to sound distressed and scared, his tough mask falling. He grips tightly at his hair. “I don’t know how I got here- o-or why…! Or why my m-magic feels wrong! E…everything feels w̶̓̕r̶̈́͠o̶̜̊n̶͑̽ĝ̶̜!” He shouts at the end, his body and voice stuttering like something electric. But this only seems to frighten him more.

The King frowns. How strange... but... perhaps useful. "It's... it's going to be alright," he says awkwardly. Slowly he reaches out, but stops, unsure if physical touch is appropriate here. It's been so long since he tried acting this way. "Take deep breaths. This is... strange, but we can work with this. Your magic... from what I saw, this is actually how it's supposed to be. Perhaps. We didn't exactly talk about it, but you seemed confident in it last time. 

Alt unconsciously glitches back from the king, eyes wide again. He knits his eyebrows in confusion and looks at his magic, “…strange… I don’t think I’ve seen.. a-anything like this… before. Not in Glasúil…”

“As for how you got here... I'm curious about that, too." The King looks over at the warriors. They'd alerted him about someone in the courtyard. Further peering into their minds reveals that Alt really did just appear there out of nowhere. "I wonder if anyone else came with you..."

Alt feels like he needs to hide. He’s not sure who he should trust… if he can trust anyone. But… what’s the alternative…? He’s not even sure if he can remember anyone else- Brief flashes of other people pop up out of the fog. A wolf masked man in a red coat. A owl masked man in a white tunic. The wizard in the cat mask with the white and gray familiar. The quiet kind man in a rabbit mask who spoke in hands… and the Hunter in the deer mask. The one that looked and sounded like his brother… 

��wait… brother? 

The next flash is a little more intense as images of another brightly colored man appears in Alt’s memories, shining bright like the sun. But… so many of the flashes only leave Alt more confused. Why were his clothes so bright and sleek? Shiny almost? He’s never seen someone dress like that before… that he can remember. But, a recent memory seems to calm down his confusion- seeing Chase smile at him in the simple tunic he always wore. 

“…m…my brother-“ Alt mumbles, “Chase… he’s here somewhere and…” He tries not to let his muddled brain mess with his tongue. The images of the Masked Phantoms flash again and he feels fierce determination at the sight. His friends… he had to find his friends. The Rebels. 

At this, Alt starts to back up again, trying to look for another exit. Even if the king is being nice… Alt knows he’s a rebel. He can’t let his guard down. Then he cringes again as black magic tries to spark up in his eyes, and he gasps, a name falling from his lips, “M-Magnificent…!” He pants and leans against the nearest thing he can, feeling sick. The cruel laughter and pulsing purple that’s invading his mind feels too familiar.. and not in a good way. “…he- he’s… he’s here too-“ 

The King's eyes darken upon hearing that. "Magnificent is here too..." he repeats. Sounds like this is just like last time. But now, the bits of memory flashing through Alt's mind, the confusion about the strange clothes... Alt has forgotten about anything besides this world. How strange. But again, probably useful. If Alt has no memory of his world from before, then he'll have no desire to return to it. Hmm... 

"Well then, I suppose we should find him. I know you may be feeling... confused right now, in terms of loyalties." He nods at the mask around Alt's neck. Judging by his memories, he still harbors fond feelings for those rebels. "But Magnificent is a great danger. It's best if we deal with him quickly." He pushes a bit with that statement, hoping to take advantage of Alt's confused state to get him to listen. "There's also a chance that your brother is with him."

Even without his memories- Alt’s body remembers the fear and hatred associated with Magnificent. He knows that cat bastard poses just as much of a threat to the kingdom as the King… that him and his brother would stop at nothing to subdue him. He blinks and then narrows his eyes at the King, “…you want to… help me?” He asks slowly, looking at him skeptically. But, he does agree… Magnificent can’t be left to his own devices. He goes to pick up his knife and flips it closed, but he doesn’t take his eyes off the king. “…but… maybe… I-if you want to assist me in finding Magnificent then… fine. A… a temporary truce.”

The King nods, trying for another friendly smile. It's a bit colder than the last one, but not suspiciously so. "A temporary truce." He doesn't mind. Truces rarely stay temporary with powers like this. He turns to the warriors and commands them to step to the side so he and Alt can leave. They do so. "We should get started right away, then. I don't think Mag is anywhere is the castle. It may take some time to find him."

Alt nods slowly, still keeping his distance from the King as he rubs his mask. Then, he shudders suddenly, feeling the hair on the back of his neck prick up as the air suddenly feels electric. He glitches back- just in time to see a figure appear in a colorful wave of rectangles that buzz like angry bees. 

The King's eyes widen as he feels the familiar hum of electricity in the air.Then, he gets tackled to the ground, Magnificent pinning him down. His claws dig into the royal’s shoulders as he laughs darkly, magic sparking wildly around him. “Well hello again, Aodhan~!” The mad magician cackles. But, in a flash his expression turns murderous and angry as he lashes out to try to choke the king while he’s down. 

Alt stumbles back, watching with confusion and horror.

The King gets the wind knocked out of him. He looks up into a familiar set of black-sclera'd eyes. "What the--" The words get cut off with the rest of this body's airflow. How did Magnificent get here without him realizing?! Oh, right, of course. The magician can [imíonosht] as well. Just in a different way than Alt. A foolish oversight on his part. The King feels the tightening sensation of suffocation in his lungs, but he doesn't feel the need to breathe or the panic that most would. He reaches down to his belt, fingers trembling in a frustrating way, and draws his seax. In a flash he holds it up to Magnificent's neck, a harmless fragment of lightning arcing along the blade, barely missing Mag's flesh. 

{Kill this body and I'll make you regret it,} he says in the magician's mind.

Magnificent stiffens a bit at the blade at his neck. Then he laughs madly and presses harder, corruption hot on his fingers. {And what will you do to me then, specter? Without a body- what harm can you pose? Sure you can find another host… but no one else will have the power you seek, will they?} He leans in close and growls with bared canines, “I want to see you writhe, powerless as the life is drained from you…” 

Alt panics more. They… can’t kill the King… right? Jackie was very much against that. He panics and then opens up his palm, sending out a wave of magic to try to get Mag off the King.

The magic just barely misses- but it does draw Mag’s attention as he glances at Alt and barks out, “Stay out of this, puppet!” His eyes darken to black pits as the air around Mag shimmers and twists from his magic. “Or I’ll make sure you suffer twice as much as him!” Alt shudders and staggers back, overtaken by fear.

The King narrows his eyes. The green color flickers for a bit--Aodhan is panicking, survival instincts breaking through his control. He presses the blade into Magnificent's neck, drawing a drop of blood. He has to act fast while Magnificent is distracted-- Or... he could try something else. 

{You would,} the King says thoughtfully. {Or... he would.} His eyes flick back to Alt. He's loathe to abandon this body after seven years of work, but if it comes down to it, they're both good alternatives. {And I think we've established that my control exceeds yours.} 

Black spots are starting to dance across his vision. If this doesn't work he has to make a decisive choice. As he speaks to Magnificent mentally, he turns to look at Alt, giving a wide-eyed look, silently pleading for help, reaching out and trying to influence Alt to act despite Mag's threats.

Anger fills Magnificent’s body as the King suggests stealing his body or his cub’s. He roars in rage and magic bursts on his arms, sharp and loud and hot. “Don’t you fucking dare you loathsome little snake!” He spits. 

Alt’s eyes meet the scared eyes of the King and he feels like he’s being pulled along in a fog- despite the fear pounding in his ears. Then, in a burst of magic and green lighting- the body of a brown coated wolf is driving itself into Mag’s side and shoving him off, making both of them roll down the hallway for a second. 

For a moment, the King thinks he's made the wrong decision, as the magic travels down Magnificent's arms and to his body. His back arches in instinctive pain and his grip on the seax slips as it lands on the grass right by his head-- And then it's gone. Magnificent is knocked to the side and the King sits up, gasping, testing the skin on his neck for bruises or other marks. 

Magnificent yells in anger and quickly gets to his feet, spitting in feral rage. “you pathetic mistake!! I should-!” Alt however, in the time it took for Mag to get up, has quickly shifted back to his human form and is looking at himself in disbelief and confusion. He sees Mag towering over him and scrambles back, cowering and shaking. Mag stands there confused. …what happened to his fearless apprentice? The one with such a fearsome bite? …something happened during that jump… it’s almost like… Alt’s forgotten how his magic works. 

The King stands up, grabbing the seax as he does, and looks back and forth between the cowering Alt and the confused Mag. He takes a brief look into Mag's thoughts. "Pardon the intrusion," the King says in a hoarse voice. "But that's exactly it." He looks at Magnificent. "How dishonorable of you, attacking someone who doesn't even remember you." Though, to be fair, the King can't say that he wouldn't do the same under other circumstances.

Magnificent startles and then glares at the King. But slowly he looks back down at Alt. 

Alt tries to hide his shaking as he squeaks out, “I… I sort of- remember you…” 

Mag looks temporary enraged by this and probes Alt’s mind as well. He startles back at the fragmented void that awaits and looks at Alt with wide eyes. “…how… did this-?” He starts to say and then frowns, remembering the burst of static and Alt and Chase screaming and- “…my magic must have affected the TRVLR… and… in turn… messed with his memories.” He kneels down by Alt and lashes out, taking his chin and tilting it back and forth as he searches his mind. “…fascinating… it’s like… he believes he’s from this world….! Oh that is rich~!” He laughs then shoves Alt back, who just glitches slightly and scrambles back, curling in on himself. He feels like livestock… being observed before he’s picked off to be the next meal. 

Mag sighs and then turns towards the King and bares his teeth, “Can’t even take advantage of such a treat.. not when you still need to be dealt with!” He lights his hand with green fire and prowls towards the King once more.

The King backs up, holding his seax in front of him defensively. "Do you really want to do this here, Mar--Magnificent?" This is not the time to provoke the magician. "In the middle of my own palace?" Magnificent hears the shing of metal. The two helmeted warriors are still there. And they've drawn the swords. "Do you know how many resources I can call upon here?" Indeed, he's already mentally calling to as many of his special forces as he can, just in case. "Believe it or not, I don't want to kill you, but I will if I have to." His eyes flick to Alt again. {Besides, with our expertise combined, we can truly take advantage of this situation.}

Magnificent’s eyes flicker towards the guards as they draw their swords. He flashes black pitted eyes towards them and growls. But then he tilts his head towards the King and lowers his magic some. {…is that so…? Hm… this is a rare opportunity… one that might not present itself again.} He tilts his head at the King like a curious cat. {Are you suggesting another alliance, Aodhan?}

The King grins. {That's not my true name. But yes. Whatever happened seems like a freak accident, not something to happen more than once. In fact, to show you how sincere I am about this.} He sheathes the seax. The gesture probably doesn't read the same to Magnificent, without the context of this culture, but sheathing a weapon is a sign on trust. After all, it takes a while to draw it again. {I can tell you my true name. Since I know yours, it's only fair.} Once again, this may not come off the same to Magnificent. But in a land where legends of the Fair Folk stealing names are still fresh in the culture, this is very significant.

Magnificent straightens up, eyes alight with intrigue. He knew threats of the fey… a true name holds power. It’s the ultimate sign of trust. He lifts his head up and studies the King with a schooled expression. {…Alright.} He makes a go on gesture. 

Alt looks wearily at the two men- why does it feel like he’s missing a ton of valuable information right now? …is this a chance for him to run?

A smile flickers across the King's face. And for once, Magnificent gets a glimpse into his mind--truly his, not the mind of this person he's possessing. It last barely long enough for Magnificent to sense that the King is telling the truth. {I'm called Aneirin.} The name comes with a few faint images, buildings that look even older than the ones in this medieval world, blades clashing against each other, faces that mean nothing to Magnificent, metal twisted in the shape of a tree. And then the window is gone.

Magnificent blinks against the images, shaking out his head. The fact that the King also opened up his mind… and the images shown. Magnificent believes him. Besides… when else would get such a perfect chance? His cub was practically begging to be molded back into his perfect little pet. Mag grins back at the King, {Well then, Aneirin. What devious plot do you have in mind for our lost kitten, hm?}

{He looks about ready to bolt, so we need to act fast,} Aneirin says. {With his unique magic, so different from anything else in this world, he could be a valuable asset. Doubly so if this memory loss affected his brother as well. If we could make them loyal to the crown--to us--we could eliminate the rebellion and rule the kingdom for good. Possibly beyond.}

Magnificent’s eyes flash with ambitious hunger. His grin only grows wider. {…you know out of all the villains we met in the other worlds- you truly were one of my favorites, Aneirin~!} The mad magician purrs. {That sounds like a truly magnificent plan~!} He turns his hungry eyes back towards Alt. 

The glitch trembles with a quick buzz of static and glitches and then tries to bolt to his feet. But, Magnificent is faster, lashing out some of his strings and catching Alt by the foot, making him fall on his face towards the ground. He cackles madly, “Now now kitten! You can’t leave just yet! The fun is just getting started~!”

Aneirin grins as well. He walks over to Alt and crouches down by him. "Come now, Alt. We've reached an agreement and we're willing to get you in on this." The green of his eyes seems to glow as he pushes Aodhan's enchantment power into Alt's mind--mostly making way for Magnificent, since he's sure the magician has more experience in this particular matter. "You may not remember this, but we're here to help you. And your brother as well." 

Alt shakes, fearful tears in his eyes as he tries to back away from the King and Mag. "P-Please I... I don't-" Then, he feels his mind go foggy and he feels himself relax just slightly. His eyebrows knit together in confusion, "...you're... here to... help us...?" He shakes his head and tries to build up magic to try to glitch again, " B-But... the Phantoms they-!" 

Then, Alt's attention is drawn towards the bright spiral of magic building up behind the King, swirling with green and purple. His eyes flash purple again. The fight quickly starts to leave his body. 

Magnificent chuckles, his voice echoing as he increases his influence over Alt's mind. Even if it's missing things... he knows this mind and its weaknesses. "The Phantom Masks lie, Alt. After all... where are they now, hm? They left you here... alone... what kind of friends do that...?" 

Alt's eyes slowly start to glaze over and fill with magic. "...the...phantom masks... lie..." He falls easier than ever, his mind missing his usual safeguards. This is almost too easy~!

"Exactly," Aneirin says, backing up Magnificent's words. "It's not hard to put up a front for the short time you spent with them. Did they tell you why they wear those masks? It's to scare people. The citizens of Glasúil have heard rumors of those frightening specters. Ask anyone about it and they'll tell you the same. The Phantoms spoke of an honorable cause, didn't they? And yet they spread chaos in their wake. Their rebellion destabilizes the kingdom. A kingdom which is doing well without them. A kingdom that is strong without them. And they know what they're doing. Why else would they lie about their intentions to you?"

Alt slumps more and nods hollowly. The Phantoms… they’re bringing rebellion to a kingdom that was fine… they’re putting innocents at risk. That makes his blood boil. But he looks between the King and Mag with a lost look in his eyes, “…what… do I… do then…? I… was gonna… protect people… protect my brother… my friends…”

Aneirin grins. "You help me and Magnificent track down those dangerous rebels. Eliminate them once we've found them. You can protect people by defending the kingdom that way." He pauses. "Of course, we'll find your brother first. And then we'll go after them."

Alt’s eyes glow green at the commands, whispering to himself. “Eliminate… the rebels…” Then the green flickers and he winces, something trying to fight in his quickly emptying head. He groans, almost looking like he might break out of trance. “N…no m’friends…!” 

Magnificent tsks and increases the strength of his hypnotism. He kneels down by Alt, taking him by the chin to force him to look at only the spiral. “You will serve the King, Alt. You are now a noble knight, protecting the kingdom for a good cause. But protecting the King and his trusted allies is your number one goal… the second is finding a way to eliminate any rebel who stands in your way. Anything else left in that empty head of yours is irrelevant. Forget… and focus only on protecting your King. And obeying any command he or I gives you. Do you understand?” 

Alt’s mouth falls slack as the suggestions take hold, his eyes filling with magic again with little resistance. Finally, he breathes out, “Yes mu Ríthe…” Mag blinks a bit in surprise- trying to remember what that meant. Then it clicks, My Kings. He giggles, turning to grin at Aneirin, “Oh I love when they add unexpected things like that! Always such a ego boost~” He laughs and then looks back at Alt,“Very good kitten… now… drift. And let all these commands sink into you and mold you into the knight we need… sleep.., and awaken a loyal knight of Glasúil~!” He snaps and Alt’s eyes roll back as he crumples to the ground. Magnificent teleports to his feet and wipes himself off.

Magnificent teleports to his feet and wipes himself off. He looks at Aneirin cheekily and grins, “Shouldn’t take too long for that to sink in.“ 

Aneirin watches this all with fascination. He wonders if there's some techniques he could adopt. But maybe not. After all, this otherworldly magic is so different from the enchantment in this realm. Magnificent will make a fine ally. If he can handle being just a partner and not the sole contributor. Which... the judge is still out on that. 

Still, he smiles when Magnificent grins at him. "You're quite good at this," he says. 

Magnificent smiles smugly, like a cat trying to strut. “It’s my specialty, Aneirin, darling! Hypnosis and controlling the mind are my bread and butter. You have to know when their minds are empty enough… then you can mold it into whatever you want~!” He chuckles sinisterly. 

"So I suppose we wait. And then... well, I wasn't kidding about finding the other one. His... brother. Those powers would also be helpful.”

At the mention of Bro, Mag nods. “…from what I can remember… whatever I did to the TRVLR affected both of them… their other useless friends seemed unaffected. They shouldn’t cause us much trouble before we find him…” 

"So... there are others with them, then," the King mutters. "Let me guess. Jackie, Jameson, and Henrik. Those seem to make up the rest of this little group. I wonder if that's a pattern across worlds. Five, with one separate."

Magnificent nods with a smirk. “Correct. Those 5 plus some antagonist… isn’t always the same person, either. But, they’re all connected across the universes I’ve seen. An Anti… like Alt. And you. A-“ He winces and gestures at himself. “A Marvin. A Henrik. A Chase. A Jameson. And A Jackie. Always intertwined…”

“Hm… I remember having difficulty with your Chase’s mind before, but if he's similarly afflicted, that would help. I could sense that one's mind if we get close enough, but there's no telling where he went." 

Mag growls. “yes… he’s a difficult one. His head is hard to keep under… hard to mold. But… having Alt already under our thrall will help… if he can’t remember anything… I’m sure their annoying sibling bond is still very much intact. We can use that…” 

Aneirin winces, almost unnoticably. Yes, that annoying sibling bond. How useless. But useful for others. The King pauses, looking at Alt while he lies on the ground. "Hmm... something slightly off with those clothes. Can't quite put my finger on it. He'll need new ones, anyway." As he stares, he notices something else. "Is that... a bracelet with words? I don't recognize the symbols. It's not your alphabet, is it?"

Mag blinks and looks down at Alt. He kneels down again and picks up Alt’s limp wrist, studying the bracelet. Then he grins. “Oh ho… he’s learning so many new tricks~!” He glances at the King and then gestures to the bracelet. “It’s runes…  one of our ancient alphabets of magic. Gaelic, I believe. But, I studied these as a novice too. It’s a tracking bracelet… it will lead its wearer towards others with similar energies.” He grins then, eyes glowing as he touches the stone, watching as it lights up with magic. “…which is how… we can find that poor lost do-gooder~!”

The King stays quiet as Magnificent talks, listening to what he knows. He leans closer, getting a better look at the bracelet. His eyes light up--metaphorically--as the stone starts to glow. "Ooo, a very useful talisman. We have similar ones here, though the, ah, 'roonz' are replaced by plain letters or abstract symbols." He straightens again. "But back to the matter at hand. The others. Even if they are useless, they will probably try to find their friends. We should expect that.”

Mag looks back at the King and scowls before shrugging, “Of course but… I wouldn’t worry too much about the ones from my world. Two of them have been my puppets and are easily controlled. Henrik’s magic is primitive and weak. The other two are powerless. Jackie can fight but- he doesn’t usually pose much of a threat.” He looks down at Alt and nudges his face with his shoe. “…we just need to keep a tight hold on our new knights… and they’ll be putty in our hands.” 

At the touch, Alt’s eyelids flutter and he blinks slowly as his eyes focus. Then, he registers who’s in front of him and in a quick glitch, he’s kneeling on one knee and bowing towards Mag and the King. “M-Mu Ríthe!“ 

Mag blinks in surprise and then giggles, “Oh… I could get used to this~!”

Aneirin flashes a smile at Mag. "It is quite... what was the word you used? An 'ego-boost.'" Magnificent returns the grin with a chuckle. 

The King turns back to Alt. "Good to see you awake again, á klaíoh. Are you ready to serve? Because we have someone to find and we wish to go soon."

Alt doesn’t lift his head as he addresses his king, “Of course, mu Ríth. I’m ready whenever you have need of me.” 

"Excellent. Then stand." The King makes a 'rise' gesture. "We will get you a proper uniform and then start our search." 

Alt rises to attention and nods, “Yes, mu Ríth.” 

The King glances at the warriors still nearby. {No need to remember this,} he tells them. And now, as soon as the group leaves the courtyard, the warriors will forget this even happened.

Magnificent takes this time to get back into his clothes from his last visit as well, taking time to smooth down the fabric. He grins madly, “Well… this is gonna be a whole lot of fun~!” 

"It certainly is." Aneirin matches Magnificent's grin with a more subdued--but no less mad--version of his own. "Now let's be quick. I assume the tracking bracelet's glow means the other one is nearby."

Magnificent nods and then looks at Alt. “Alt, is there a seeking word for your talisman? If so, use it now.” 

Alt’s eyes pulse green and then he touches the stone on his bracelet and speaks “Loonu” The bracelet pulses too and then wisps of green-blue magic start to appear in the air, popping up like a path towards the nearest matching energy. 

◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈━◈

Bro’s fall into Glasúil was anything but pleasant. Everything is a confusing, painful blur of fuzzy images and broken glass. It feels like it’s rearranging everything in his head. As he crashes to the ground, his body glitches and contorts, eyes wide and glitching with purple as he’s rewritten by the corrupted magic in his veins. He vaguely remembers gasping and yelling. But, soon enough that starts to fade away into the fog. 

But- he vaguely remembers he’s… looking… looking for people. For someone… they’re… important. That’s the only solid thought in his head as he lifts his head up from the coarse wet sand sticking to him. His dull eyes try to take in the sights around him, weakly pushing himself up. “Where… am I…?” 

He's on the shore of a large body of water. There's a distant shore barely in sight, but judging by the curve of this shore he's on an island. To his back, it's crowded with wood and stone buildings. Surrounding him is sand and reeds that vary in size from knee-height to waist-height. Extending onto the water are wooden walkways and floating buildings. Farther, close enough that he can see it clearly but still a bit of a walk away, there is a wooden dock with some attached wooden buildings. A cobblestone roads leads from it off into the surrounding fields. There are... people over by the dock and buildings. He can see them, the distance making them small enough to hide behind his hand. 

Bro takes in all the information around him with a bit of panic. He looks down at his clothes and they feel… off. Why? What was happening? Where he is? Why can’t.., why can’t be remember anything?! He chokes down a panicked breath and tries to breathe, just… gather your thoughts Chase… what do you know? 

…he’s in the land of Glasúil… and considering he’s near a lake… is he near Suilthair…? He… can’t remember if he’s been before… And he knows… his brother. Alt. Anti… the one he’s always out to protect. And last he remembers… was his little brother screaming in pain. 

With this in mind, he staggers up to his feet and makes his way towards the nearest cluster of people. Maybe they’ve seen him! And… and his friends. Yeah… he also needs to find them. The… the Masked Phantoms. He must look like a crusty mess but still he trudges over, occasionally pausing to groan in slight pain as an intense headache attacks his head. But he can push it off. He’s… Bro Fantastic he’s a… a super hero …he’s a warrior. He can handle anything thrown at him. 

As he nears the docks he calls out towards them, “Hwaet!!” He then waves his arm to get their attention as he continues closer. 

The people near the docks are scattered into disparate groups. Some of them turn when he calls out, some of them don't. Everyone is dressed differently, and everyone has bags or boxes of some sort with them. Ah. They're all waiting. Probably to board a boat of some kind, judging by the docks. There are also a pair of warriors leaning by the doorway. They look relaxed, chatting with each other, expressions calm. The nearest group is made of an older man and three younger people who all look alike enough to be related. Two of these group--a young woman and one who looks pretty androgynous--walk over to him. 

"Aan bhfuil tu kear leori?" the woman asks. Something that Bro instinctively knows means "Are you alright?" 

"Did you fall in the lake?" her companion adds. 

Bro meets the others and attempts to smile, “Ah… dia duhui…” He greets. He brushes off some of the sand and shakes it out of his hair. “Nearly… lucky I didn’t fall in head first…” He then looks at the two in front of him and tries to find his focus. “oh but um… I’m looking for someone… my brother. He looks like me but- a lot shorter! And he has some green in his eyes- and… he- oh! He has a white cat mask on- with like… stripes on it. Have… you seen anyone like that?”

"A white animal mask?" the woman repeats. "Like those destructive spirits?" 

The other person rolls their eyes. "Those spirits aren't real, Lila." 

"I don't understand how you can still say that!" The woman--Lila--repeats. "After what we heard in the Leonbhar claim?" 

"They're probably just people causing chaos." 

Lila sighs and turns back to Chase. "Don't listen to Senan, they don't know what they're talking about. But no, we haven't seen anyone like that. Maybe he took the earlier ferry?"

Bro blinks in confusion, “Destructive spirits…?” He asks quietly. “…is that how you all… think about the phantoms?” 

"Phantoms...?" Senan repeats, confused. 

Bro knits his eyebrows together, trying to sort through his thoughts. Could the phantoms really be causing that much trouble…? 

Bu he’s shook out of his thoughts by Lila’s second question. He tries to smile, “maybe… but I don’t think he’d tried to leave the island without finding me first… guess I gotta… just keep looking around!” 

Senan shrugs off their confusion. "Yes, of course, I'm sure you'll find him. Maybe you can ask some of the local warriors. They keep an eye on things around here, maybe one of them saw your brother."

Chase glances at the warriors and gets an uneasy feeling. Guards… probably aren’t the safest thing for him to go towards right now. Even if… he’s missing his mask. He nods his head and smiles politely, “yeah! Of course- well, thank you for your help!” He waves to them and then starts heading further away from that beach. 

Lila frowns, confused, but she and Senan wave goodbye anyway. 

As Chase heads away from the beach and further into the city, it seems like avoiding guards is going to be harder to do than he thought. He can't go two minutes without seeing them, usually in pairs or trios, walking along the streets. Patrolling. The people don't react to them, merely going around them as if this is completely normal. Or... they don't usually react. 

Chase watches the guards warily- as if he’s expected to be recognized. But… huh. Guess he’s managing to somewhat fit in. Where could Alt be…? And the others…? Bro glances at the bracelet on his wrist and perks up, going to study it. Oh… but- fuck! He forgot the word he’s supposed to use… man. If only he could fly-

As Chase pauses to look at the bracelet, another pair of warriors turn the corner. These ones wear helmets. And this time, the cityfolk glance at them uneasily, seeming to speed up their business by just a bit.

Chase notices and feels the change in atmosphere and notices the helmeted guards. Those… seem like very bad news. He glances around quickly to see if he can hide anywhere- he’s just hoping he’s fast-! But as he thinks this, his body seems to react and in a blink- he’s zipped into the spaces between two buildings. He blinks slowly then looks at the lingering energy pulsing in his veins. “Cadé aan… sailile…?”

He doesn't have too long to dwell on it, though. The helmeted warriors continue down the street, glancing into every alleyway as they go.

Bro gasps and stumbles back as he hears the clanging of their weapons and chain mail, trying to see if he can find a way to blend into the shadows.

They pass by the alleyway. One of them glances inside and starts to walk past, but then stops. They nudge their companion, who turns and looks. They nod. "You there!" they call, obviously spotting Chase. "Identify yourself."

Chase stiffens and then swallows thickly, “Um… Chase son of… Kieran-“ He then seems to stiffen slightly as his eyes just slightly flicker with purple. “I mean uh… son of b…Brody, sir.” 

The warrior nods again. "The King has business with you," they say. "Come with us."

Chase’s stomach drops, “T-The King?!” He starts to back up more, panicking. “w-what does he want with me?! I- I’m no one special!”

"We do not ask questions of His Majesty," the other guard says. "And a summons is not a request. If you do not comply we will use force."

Chase might not know much right now… but he knows for sure he does not want to be brought to the King. Every muscle in his body screams this. He glances briefly as the bright blue still pulsing weakly in his veins. …he doesn’t understand what magic this is… but desperate times! Relying on instinct, Chase lashes out a hand, points a finger at the guards- and a volt of blue lighting zaps out of his finger. He takes a moment to look at this in surprise- but then he quickly scrambles backwards and starts to book it down the alley.

One of the warriors gets hit by the lightning and knocks back into the other one. They tumble to the ground but they're up again quickly, running after Chase, shouting at him to stop. 

When Chase bursts out of the alley he's in the next street over. People turn and stare at him as he rushes past, jumping out of his way when they see who's pursuing him. There are also two non-helmeted warriors on this street. They look very surprised, almost too stunned to move even when one of the helmeted ones shouts at them to help. Not that the helmeted warriors need the help. They're gaining quickly. 

Chase is cursing over and over in his head. Fucking Alt! Where is he?! Where are the others?! Why is he being chased when he can’t remember shit?! He serpentines through people and things on the street- trying to get as much distance as he can between himself and the warriors. The warriors are fast… but he feels pretty fast too.

And fast he is. As the chase continues, he slowly pulls ahead, zigzagging through the streets at random. Getting deeper and deeper into the city. People keep jumping out of the way but they literally cannot move fast enough. Thank god that he's very good at dodging around them. A stone wall grows closer, palace towers looming higher.

Part of him wonders how he got so good at running and dodging. The other part of him assumes it’s from being with the Phantoms. They had to do this regularly, huh? …well- s’not like he can remember anyways. 

Chase zips down another corner and then blinks in surprise as he sees… a blue green wisp of magic. …that seems very familiar. Before he can chase that thought, something suddenly appears in front of him like a fuzzy bolt of green lightning. And a seax is held at his throat, two burning green eyes glaring at him. 

The two Brody brothers stare at each other for a second before Alt starts to lower the blade. “Chase…?” 

Chase looks relieved for a second, “Alt!” Then he stiffens and is about to grab Alt to run again when he pauses and takes in his little brother properly. “…what in Elders name are you wearing?!” 

Alt straightens, showing that he’s now dressed in a long black tunic, the king’s crest stark on his chest. His phantom mask isn’t anywhere on him. It feels… strange to see him without a mask. Didn’t he always have one? “Chase-“ Alt says softly, holding up a hand as he sheathes the seax. “just… try to breathe. I know you must be feeling confused right now…” 

“Hells yeah I’m confused!” Bro shouts, “Why are you dressed like you’re a Kings’ warrior?!” 

The helmeted warriors behind him skid to a halt, suddenly seeming unsure. And then they both stiffen and bow their heads... as a man in a green cloak and golden circlet rounds the corner of the street. "Ah." His green eyes light up and there's a flash of a smile before his expression falls again. "Just barely out of range. Of course," he whispers, just low enough for himself and Mag. Then he raises his voice to a more audible volume. "Hello, Chase. Good to see you again, it's been a while. Have you forgotten as much as your brother? You must have... otherwise this wouldn't have been a surprise."

Chase startles as he turns to see the King walking up to him… and Magnificent. “What… what is happening…?” He whispers with wide eyes. 

Magnificent chuckles and smirks at Bro, “Well Mr. Brody… it’s so rare to see you get cornered, isn’t it?” 

Chase fumbles for anything to say. “What… what did you do to Alt?” He finally growls out, blue light shimmering in his eyes. 

“Chase please just- let us explain!” Alt tries to say, grabbing onto his arm. 

But Chase rips himself away and stumbles back. “no! You’re… you’re betraying our friends Alt! The- the Phantoms-“ 

“The Phantoms are the problem, Chase!” Alt snaps, “The King and Magnificent want to help us… they helped me remember- they can help you too!” 

Mag rolls his eyes and sticks out his tongue at the King to show his disgust. Then he sighs dramatically and snaps his fingers, “Enough of the drama- Alt, secure your brother in place, won’t you?”

Alt stiffens, his eyes flashing green. Then he grabs both of Bro’s arms and yanks them hard behind his back and holds them. “Yes, my Liege.” 

Bro cries out and tries to fight his way out of Alt’s grip. “N-No! Alt stop it!” He glares at Mag and the King, baring his teeth. “W-Whatever you’re planning…! O-Our friends will find us- they’ll stop you! Both of you!”

Magnificent giggles and strides over to Bro with a shit-eating grin. “Ain’t that sweet… such a pity though, seeing as you can’t even remember them properly~!” He then snaps and magic blooms behind him and the King, “And we’re gonna keep it that way.” 

The King smirks. "Don't worry, Chase. It won't take long for you to realize your mistakes. We won't hold it against you." He reaches out mentally, clearing the way for Mag. "It's possible to get swept up in a so-called righteous cause. But let us show you the truth now. The truth of where your loyalties should truly lie."

Chase struggles and tries to fight, but his brain is already so scrambled from the memory loss. The King can feel a bit of resistance in Chase’s mind… like an injury messed with the pathways that are usually easier to navigate. But, soon enough the magic fills up his eyes and he slumps slightly, looking up at the King and Mag in a daze. “Where my… loyalties… lie…” he whispers, Mag’s magic digging into his rewritten, open mind. 

Magnificent laughs, this does feel easier than it usually does! Maybe it’ll actually stick… but if it doesn’t. He has a plan. “Yes Chase… the Phantoms have lied to you. You’ve heard it recently haven’t you? They cause nothing but chaos and destruction. A hero like you… a warrior like you… would never align himself with such people, right? You pride yourself in protecting the innocent.” Mag tries not to let his disgust show at saying that. “The kingdom protects far better than the Phantoms ever could… you’ve been deceived, Chase.” 

The magic flickers in Chase’s eyes before growing brighter as his expression gets blanker. He tries to shake his head but… the logic seems so sound. …how was he so blind to it all…? Has he been protecting the wrong people…?

“Yes, Chase, you were on the wrong side,” the King says, reinforcing this way of thinking as Magnificent’s magic sinks in. “But you can make up for it now. Just like your brother. The two of you can help save the kingdom from these threats… if you only remember where you’re supposed to be. By my side, and Magnificent’s. Being the loyal warrior you were always meant to become.”

Green light swells to consume the color in Chase’s eyes as he numbly nods. “…a loyal warrior…” He breathes. 

Magnificent grins, triumphant. Now- to properly mold him~! “Very good Chase… now. You don’t need to remember anything else but your loyalty to the crown. The Masked Phantoms and any other rebels are your enemies. They must be eliminated. You exist to serve the King, a loyal knight. Just like your brother.” 

Chase slumps more, the magic getting brighter. But, then it flickers slightly as his face scrunches up- trying to fight. 

Magnificent growls and goes to grab Chase’s chin, pressing his face close as magic swirls in his eyes. “And… know this, Chase Brody. I know your tendency to rebel… but if you try- if you don’t obey the commands I or the King give you… your baby brother will suffer. I will hurt him. And you don’t want that… right?” 

Chase stiffens and lets out a hurried, breathy, “N-No!” 

The magic increases its pressure- so much so that Bro’s head lolls back limply as Magnificent laughs, “Good answer… then let this all sink in, knight. Be molded into the perfect warrior of Glasúil. And when you awaken, you will know your purpose and be ready to serve. Understand?” 

“Y-Yes… my liege.” 

Magnificent grins wide and then snaps, and Chase slumps completely, falling forward with his head hung. Alt drops him stoically, as if he doesn’t care or even recognize him. 

Magnificent purrs at the sight, “Mmmm… hopefully that sticks. This one is always tricky to keep down… so ironic, considering his brother is my best puppet~!” 

“It’s always strange with families,” Aneirin agrees. “It’s never clear what gifts will pass to who.” He pauses for a moment, looking around to make sure no one saw what just happened. No, this is a thankfully empty part of the city. The warriors who were chasing Chase are still nearby, but he easily dismisses them, wiping the encounter from their minds. “For example, take my oracle. Did I tell you about him last time? I can’t recall. But I used to… employ an oracle, before he ran off with the rebels. No one in that family had the sight before, and yet there he was. Not to mention the way powers fade in bloodlines before suddenly returning.” He sighs just remembering the wait for another enchanter Royal. “In any case, clever thinking there. Now… now we can hunt those rebels down.” His eyes flash with anger. “I was planning on going soon. Some were in this city recently and I believe I know which way they went. Best to move quick before they get too far, I thought.”

Magnificent nods, “Magic always works in strange ways.” He comments. Then, his eyes flash hungrily and he grins. “An excellent idea… having these two to tear the rebels down~! Oh it’ll be such a beautiful sight to see! So much betrayal and drama!” He giggles. 

Aneirin smiles. “It truly will be a sight, won’t it?” Though he does not look forward to the drama in the way Magnificent does, he can’t pretend it won’t be satisfying. 

Mag then gestures for Alt to come over. He grabs the glitch’s wrist and green lines cover over his purple marks. He nods- now he had a way to make sure they kept Bro on a short leash. He then whistles and snaps, looking back at Chase. “Rise and shine, Brody! We got rebels to find~!” 

Chase groggily groans for a second, his eyelids fluttering. But then he stiffens, his eyes flashing green. Then he pulls himself up and bends over at the middle, arm pressed to his stomach to bow to the King and Mag. “Yes, my lords.” He looks up with determination and fire in his eyes. 

Alt shakes out of his light trance and smiles a bit with determination too, the air sparking with his magic. 

As Chase and Alt shake out of their trances, the King turns to them. “Prepare for travel, á klaíohe. Once you are armed and ready we will leave the city.” 

Chase nods and bows properly to the King, “Of course, mu Ríth.” 

The King turns back to Magnificent. “It’s early in the day so we can take advantage of the daylight to travel far. I’ll gather some of my special forces as well—” Then he suddenly winces. “Damn, I almost forgot I need to appoint a regent. How I wish my range of influence was greater. Ah, I’ll just leave it to Thalia. That will help secure more loyalty.” He nods, satisfied. “We will be able to leave quickly.”

Magnificent grins, “Ah excellent… I can’t wait to see the look on my puppets’ faces~!” Then he processes and tilts his head at the King, “Ah your telepathy is limited… interesting. I definitely need to be close but- once a link is made I have pretty good control. Then again- I don’t let them travel farther than our city so…” He shrugs. “We’ll see! But- sounds like we have a lot of preparations to make!” 

"It covers the city, but yes, we will be going too far for it to stay," Aneirin clarifies. Then he smiles. "Yes, there are some preparation, but we will be going soon." He turns around. "Follow me. We reconvene at the castle and then head out." 

He can't wait to smother those rebellious spirits once and for all. They know the truth about him. 

Word cannot spread.

[benrey-did-nothing-wrong]

hello user benrey did nothing wrong

can i have tips on how to write benrey as a character speech wise?? he's just so unpredictable and i really struggle to convey him when im writing stuff... thank yew :)

ok so this is a loaded question and I'll do my best. thank you for choosing me tumblr user benrey-did-nothing-wrong! I hope you send this message to multiple authors who have an open inbox though, and if not:

i also will ask other authors to please put their two cents in! I'm not really an authority on benreyisms.

I try to be a bit of a Benrey language purist about 80% of the time and then the last 20% I go crazy.

So as writers we have a tendency to project our own slang and humor onto our characters. I'm no different. I try to always have a precedent for that behavior though. I'll start off with what I tend to avoid using liberally and save for quick punches.

Pog: Benrey doesn't actually seem to care much about streaming, unlike Gordon. He's more of a 2005-2014 era fellow. I have him say pog once specifically because my beta reader choked on his saliva reading "Pogaccino". Pog doesn't seem to really be in his vocabulary. Instead, replace this with NICE or COOL! He says both of these things quite a bit.

Cringe: Another thing that isn't really in his vocabulary, oddly enough. Cringe seems to be too light of an insult for him. He likes to go for the throat. I do use this term for him though as I tend to write him slightly less mean than he is in canon. "That's so cringe" would probably be "Oh you think that-you think that's cool? Idiot?"

He's not very eloquent. He'll dumb conversations down to like, a 3rd grade speaking level. His vocabulary is extraordinarily plain. The spiciest shit he says is Youtube Yownloader. Try to keep the words he uses at minimal syllables. This is something important i don't see a lot of people bring up. Of course he can use bigger words! But he tends to avoid that.

A lot of people write him a slurring a lot of his words, and this just really isn't the case. He's fairly articulate in my opinion. Lots of "M not human" and not "I'm not human". Even though he articulates fairly decently.

Do NOT have him be very perceptive. Benrey seems to be operating on a Baaulp with no oranges brain level. He doesn't tend to notice things unless they're obvious, and if he does he extrapolates something bizarre out of it (hole in the skull = donut, locker = box, etc.) And once again this ties back into him having a limited vocabulary.

Sony references! Read up on some PS3 era references and games. I'd even go as far as to suggest reading gaming magazines. To get in the Benrey mindset you really need to start living like you're Poargu. (Scorpy) A lot of people tend to make him a Nintendo fanboy but he seems to hold Nintendo in a low esteem compared to Sony (extrapolation from his monologue).

He is NOT nice, even when he is nice he isn't nice. He'll tend to show it by action and not words. Although (Gir or Holly) pulling the trigger during the gargantua fight is what killed it, in lore, Benrey kills the Gargantua with his Song of Death to protect everyone. and then he immediately says "IT PEED!!!! =D". Benrey cannot show verbal affection very well and it also is demonstrated in his catcalling and harassment of Gordon. Which yes, this is what it is. Catcalling and Harassment.

He actually doesn't say 'Dude' as much as I remembered him saying it. He's more of a "Bro" and "Man" guy.

He only BBBBB's underwater or spitting out bullets he ate! A lot of folks make this a regular part of his vocabulary but it really isn't. I try to use it sparingly.

Ok for stuff I do:

Most important to Benrey's patterns I think it's his way of being sort of a tease, and may implement video game references into this. "Butterfingers" "Chicken Hat (MSGV reference)" "Clumsy Boy" "Gordon Feetman", and "Baby".

He's very concerned about people breaking rules but doesn't seem to understand most rules of law. He knows stealing is wrong. He seems to be ambivalent to death, and views it as an inconvenience or something funny rather than, you know, the end.

"Wow." and "Woahhh". Common exclamations of wonder.

"Please" and "Sir" are used more often than you'd think

He points out the OBVIOUS. This is in addition to him not being perceptive. He will see something and describe it as he sees it without anything interesting to add on.

When he doesn't want to have an argument or hear Gordon yapping he'll default to "MYAHMYAHNYAHBLEAAGH". Total manchild.

He sometimes mixes words up. "Psychics and Physics", "Electrolytes and Electronics".

He likes being funny in his own Benrey way. If something makes Gordon laugh he'll do it. A lot.

On top of that, he's into corny jokes too (See: Mine not yours)

"Yo"

Makes references to his favorite video games. He seems to like Heavenly Sword, MAG, Metal Gear, Call of Duty, Team Fortress 2, Tekken, and GTA games. And even more. He's really a certified Sony and PC gamer. He loves the PS3 a lot. I've never seen him reference the Vita to my knowledge.

He's okay with horny talk and he thinks it's funny. If he hears something out of pocket he is HERE for it. (See: THE SUIT INCIDENT)

If he fucks up he tends to brush it off as not being his fault. A guy who is a sore fucking loser. If Gordon beats him in something he'll probably just say "I won!" anyways.

He has a fundamental misunderstanding about everything. The reason why the Not a Game AU sheltered lab rat shit works so well is because Scorpy just makes it seem like Benrey has never seen anything before in his entire life. Everything is a new and novel experience but he's pretending he knows what he is doing and can be very confidently wrong. Either that or he's REALLY fucking funny and the bit is being confidently wrong.

he is full of contradictions. He will act like something minor is killing and hurting him SOOOOO bad, but he just spits out bullets peppered into him. With Gordon, he shows a lot of aggression and adulation. He really just seems to do whatever he thinks would be funnier or more annoying.

He's a shithead brother IMO. he's got that shithead dudebro energy.

Watch a scorpy stream and take notes if he says anything that makes you giggle. i pepper a few scorpyisms here and there to add authenticity.

Unpredictability is a part of it. sometimes you just need to close your eyes and let yourself get possessed by the demons

go crazy, go stupid! Have fun! Life's a party! dont listen to ANYTHING I've said and just write him however you life!

My Reactions to Trigun Stampede After Watching the 1998 show

So I watched all of the 98 show in less than 24 hours and adored it so I went into Stampede cautious and yknow I liked it just a tiny bit (as I am writing this I am on my 4th rewatch, I watched it for the first time 3 days ago, I adore it). I decided to document my reactions cause I feel like a few mutuals will enjoy this.

Episode 1

SPACE??? ALREADY??? JUST RIGHT OUT THE GATE???

awww hi Vash, lil guy <333

what are they cooking here, showing us the Rem situation immediately

Rem 😢

This is very much like Eva in DMC5

Oh they're reporters now?

WHERE'S MILLY, WHERE IS MY GIRL MILLY, WHO IS THIS GUY AND WHERE IS MILLY

i miss milly...

yep that's Meryl

VASHHHHHHH <333333 MY GUY <3333333

JOHNNY YOUNG BOSCH <333333333333333333333 (yes i watched the dub, it's good and I love Johnny Young Bosch)

only 6 million??

He's so sillay <333

MAJOR aesthetic difference

"Careful the kitchen's serving lead" queen

so weird to see a town not running Vash out

love that they're still mixing the music so that it's louder than the dialogue (not)

THEYRE JUST HANDING THE VASH AND KNIVES LORE AT THE VERY START?????

Knives you are so close to playing the Interstellar theme

I should really read the manga to see what they're adapting that 98 didn't

Ooo i love this song

98 STYLE ART ASDJFKAJDSFLJADFKJA THEY DID THAT FOR ME THAT WAS FOR ME THAT CATERS TO ME

Episode 2

I just noticed he calls him "Nai" euueueueueu

*insert catjam here* intro goes so hard

It'd be funny if Roberto went "man this sounds like Dante and Vergil"

Not him trying to cry his way out asjkdfjlkadf that's Vash for sure

I'm so glad they got Johnny Young Bosch for this I don't think anyone else could do it

July is still around??

"MAMA LOVES YOU BABY NOW SHOO" iconic

noooo :[

NEBRASKA FAMILY

"why'd they have to use this photo" it's a cute photo!

HE'S SO REAL

ONE BULLET VS 2 DOZEN DONUTS, LIKE YEAH CHOOSE THE DONUTS THAT'S BASED

Did they model Rosa after Milly to atone for the fact she isn't here

Me seeing things that are identical to the 1998 one: excited pointing at tv while pogging

"Mm, Yeah no <3" I love him so much

"what's wrong with being a little timid" I want to hold you and never let go, you do not deserve what's coming

look at my boy dodging lets go

"I don't have any reason not to...eh, I don't really care...I told you I don't" Vash you deserve the world

oh this is a smart plan actually

"who's side are you on anyway" is this going to be recurring

KNIVES

man Knives you really arent holding back

the creators of this show went "hey we saw your twin angst in DMC Capcom and how much yall emphasize the twins so we'd like to do the same since you probably were inspired by Knives and Vash for the Vergil and Dante situation"

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THAT GORE IS SICK <- blood and gore enjoyer

is Johnny Young Bosch the only returning voice???

this is the third ask for who's side Vash's on this is definitely recurring

uhhhh whatcha doing there

◉_◉

"you would shoot me?" lowkey wish it was still as funny as it was in the 98 version

WOAH RELOAD ANIMATION

He's living up to the Million Knives name

that is certainly a Million knives

Metal Gear ass name

WOAH THAT'S SO COOL AND PRETTY

holy crap they quickly established the difference in serious tone oh my god, there is so much emotional weight here

also the music is gorgeous

yeah the stakes are much higher in this version, they are not afraid to kill characters

this is just heartbreaking

Vash 🥺

"because I dont deserve to cry" VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH AEUEUEUEUEUUEUEUUEUEUEUEUEUEUEUEUEUEU

so will we get to see what happens to July or will it just not happen

Episode 4

hi Wolfwood

not gonna lie I don't like this fit, the pants specifically

where's your nose king, they took it away

THEY HIT WOLFWOOD WITH THE CAR AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

oh well this aint good

Not a priest????

yep that's Wolfwood (lollipop scene)

he's much more emo here tho not as charming as 98

ASJDFJFSDL LMAOOO

loved that animation of Vash looking at the bill

well Roberto isn't wrong, you did work for Knives

hey isnt that Meryl's gun

"don't worry I can see through his emo persona ^-^" "HEY"

I KNEW IT WAS THIS KID

woah cool design

we are getting so much more of these guys than we did in 98

YUHHHHH THE DESIGN IS BASICALLY IDENTICAL

WOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

that actually looks good, id eat it

REVEALING THIS ALREADY?????

WHAT ARE YOU COOKING STUDIO ORANGE????

"i can see it in your eyes" dont think i didnt notice that little parallel

gate????

im snorting those end credit arts like crack cocaine

Episode 5

Todoroki that you?

WAIT I FORGOT WOLFWOOD IS VOICED BY TODOROKI'S ENGLISH VA AHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

the radio spouting religious stuff and doomsday talk is giving DMC5 intro

It's so interesting that at some angles the style is identical to the 1998 show

Vash in particular, they translated his facial expressions perfectly

OH THIS GUY

OH I LOVE THIS REDESIGN

I LOVE THIS REDESIGN A LOT

what's the deal with this kid

man they really are just tugging on my heartstrings in this show

"If God won't, I will!" STOP

Alice Angel that you?

OH NO

IS THIS WHERE I THINK IT'S GOING

OH NO

OH NO THIS MAKES THIS WHOLE SITUATION SO MUCH WORSE

HE KNEW HIM SINCE HE WAS A BABY???? SHOOT ME IT'D HURT LESS

HE WAS JUST SOME GOON GUY IN THE 98 VERSION I CANT AEUEUEUEUEUEUEUEU

same face as the 98 guy tho just with the scar

Oh Wolfwood doing that has so much more impact now

although in the 1998 version by having it not be someone Vash knew it added to how far Vash's ideals went and it caused Wolfwood to have introspection but this is a different arc

And in the 1998 version the situation is much more ambigous cause Vash is talking to the "kid" but he hasn't turned back at all yet and Wolfwood shoots

so it's more unclear who is right in that situation while in this you can see Rolo is sorta just frozen there and thinking so you're inclined to Vash's side more

what are they cooking, im so intrigued

Episode 6

WOAH WOAH WOAH WOLFWOOD WHAT IS YOUR DEAL

WOLFWOOD WAS A NORMAL GUY IN 1998

HE IS CLEARLY NOT HERE

"im like the cool big brother" tumblr does not agree

I have seen some art

THE SUITCASE THINGYS

CHARACTER THAT WASNT EVEN IN THE 1998 ONE???

MANGA CHARACTER AYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

this guy must be a bleach fan

OH THAT'S SO MUCH FUNNIER KNOWING JOHNNY YOUNG BOSCH VOICES ICHIGO AJAHHDAHHAHAHAHA

i love this 2D style can I get an entire anime in this style

Little Wolfwood and Little Megumi need to be in a idgaf competition

tiny menace to society

stfu this is so cute, how will this go horribly wrong

smoking at like 7 years old asjkdfalfd

Woah Trigun, your mom lets you have TWO tragic sibling plots???

wow they made Wolfwood trip balls

WOAH

THEY ARE NOT HOLDING BACK ON THE BODY HORROR <- thrilled about this

man they did screw you up

LEGATO

they took his emo swag

S+ what is this Devil May Cry

they flipped Legato's design and put the spikes on the right side and the part the other way

Livio has become Sans Undertale

Wolfwood better have a tiddies out fit next season

they were POPPING in 98

that jacket was STRUGGLING

"Ryan you're objectifying him" yes I am

I want to see his tiddies hand em over

Not gonna lie Wolfwood, you calling Vash "blondie" isnt helping the allegations

Episode 7

LMAOOOO THE BADLANDS GANG GETTING THEIR PHOTOS TAKEN AJSDFLJFSDK

i can't with this im AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUEUEUEUEUUE

if Buddy Daddies hadn't sucked me dry from crying so hard (i had just finished it the previous day) I would be weeping

WELP HE JUST DID THAT

he aint dead though i saw stuff about him

Legato not gonna lie I prefer your 98 version so far, like he made me shake in my boots a bit

Vash why is your arm made of the blown glass stuff they use to make little glass figures you see in the glass cabinets at the back of the PX or at a big gas station

that gun definitely hit something, just not the town bet

the title card of "Wolfwood" after he calls himself the punisher asjkdfjlaf

hello why am I crying at the scene of Vash with his hands against the glass in the plant

this just in, scene so pretty with pretty music that it made Ryan cry

not the first time

OH HE'S A PLANT

THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

IM SO STUPID HOW DID I NOT REALIZE THAT DURING 98

ONCE AGAIN GOING FERAL FOR END CREDIT ART AALALALAAODFOAOAOAOAO

Episode 8

oh nooooooooooooooooooo

dont show me this

dont show me them being happy

my little baby boy auaueueueueueueueueueueueueueueu

"im mom to the sweetest boys in the universe" ONE sweet boy

The little blush on Nai dwaw

Plant lore????

Saverem? Really that's her last name??? Is this Metal Gear

BRAD???? THAT'S BRAD???

actually not surprised that's Brad

"there has to be something special that only you can do" be the most babygirl anyone could ever be, though you gotta grow up for that

I CANT LITTLE VASH AUEUEUEUEUEUEUUEEUUEUEUEEU

I NEED TO TAKE YOU FAR AWAY AND SPOIL YOU WITH ICE CREAM

when is this going to go horribly wrong

IM GONNA CRYYYYY HE'S SO ADORABLE AUEUEUEUEUEUUEUEEUUEUEUE

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

HE'S NOOOOT

HE ISNT WORKING WITH KNIVES HE DIDN'T LIE HE SAID HE'S PROBABLY DEAD WHICH UNDER MOST CIRCUMSTANCES WOULD BE TRUE

Man they made Knives look EXTRA Vergil

Episode 9

epic piano, also how are you playing both parts by yourself

WOAH 1998 TYPE SHOT

i fully believe they're emulating the 1998 style just in 3D now, the side profiles give it away

well that's messed up, i can see why Knives hates humans

that doesnt explain why he crashed the ships though

"Millions Knives" i really do think you played Metal Gear

Knives I do wonder what your plan was cause how do you expect the plants to survive here

oh so the gun isn't custom made

98 THING HE SAID THAT KINDA IN 98 TOO ("all this time and you're still just as useless without me)

i appreciate them trying to keep the deranged faces Knives makes in 98

WOAH WOAH WAOH WOAH WAOHWOAH

IS THAT THE BLACK HOLE THING, I SAW SOMETHING ABOUT IT FROM THE MANGA

Now Vash is even MORE like Nero

WAIT HAS IT NOT BEEN 100 YEARS???

oh nevermind, its been 150 years

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

a whole ship of passengers...I'm sure this won't be relevant later they're going to die arent they

oh my gosh that's right she's never seen flowers and such like this

more of this side picking stuff

I'm not ready for when he does kill again, that will actually break my heart

oh they are just bugs

OUR PRONOUNS ARE THEY/THEM, BECAUSE WE'RE NON-BINARY AND A BUNCH OF MFS

Episode 10

I'M ON EPISODE 10 ALREADY???

I literally became a Trigun fan in less than 24 hours

Hundred Spoons lmaooooo

so weird to hear them talk about Earth, but it's not as much of a HUH like 98's

than you remember??? when did you come here last

I need him to say Love and Peace

please please say it

"I DID NOT GIVE THAT ORDER" "OH SHUT IT" "OKAY" asjlkdfjlskfd

okay is Conrad aware Knives probably aint gonna let him make a new race of humans, like have fun with your experiment he does not want human to live at all

"they're disgusted by you" that is the most babygirl man ive ever seen

i have the exact opposite reaction

also his scars aren't as gnarly as 98...will he get more later

ULTIMATE LIFE FORM MENTION 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ WTF IS A POWER INHIBITOR 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️

well that's what you get for mixing Knives genetics in that

El-what's her face got homophobia in her eyes

I KNEW IT

I KNEW HE WASNT MAKING IT

HE'S GOT MERYL'S GUNS FROM THE 1998 ONE SO IF SHE'S GONNA HAVE THE GUNS THEN SOMETHING HAD TO HAPPEN

God Knives you drama queen with this piano

oh NOW he's a pastor

BRUH i cant

HE DIDNT CAUSE IT THAT WAS YOU

wtf did you do to him Conrad

also Knives's VA sounds so much like Vergil at times

it's not Dan Southworth but this guy can sound close

Episode 11

oh intro immediately you know it's gonna be intense

okay Wolfwood Im begging you next season at the very least change pants the skinny jean look isnt good

ALSO KNIVES HELLO

PUT ON SOME CLOTHES

jesus kids these days

always wearing revealing outfits

DOUBLE CHEEKED UP

man they aren't letting up the bible allegories

"dawn your crown of thorns"

1998 had more subtle ones and then the super obvious one with the garden of eden stuff

"we're going to reverse humanity's suicide by killing them all" do yall...do yall not see the problem with that logic

god this makes me want to read the manga now just to see how much this version pulls from it and how much the 98 version pulls from it

Knives what is your workout routine do you workout with Toji or something

HE LITERALLY DIDN'T THOUGH KNIVES, STOP BLAMING HIM FOR A CHOICE YOU MADE

"comparison is the thief of joy" SO REAL AND BASED

Knives yknow I have this gut feeling that Rem did mean something to you and you are just in SUPER denial

OH OKAY

ALRIGHT I GET WHY YOU'RE THE WAY YOU ARE ABOUT THIS KNIVES

OH HE LITERALLY READ THE BIBLE

STFU NO IT WASNT KNIVES STOP TRYING TO MAKE HIM THINK IT'S HIS FAULT

was it Knives was it? Cause you seem willing to sacrifice your brother for all this

Knives this is gonna backfire on you

Knives read the bible and took all the wrong lessons

dont think i didnt notice that the giant plant resembles Rem

Episode 12

"like a western, life on the frontier" STFUUUUUUUUUUU

YOU DO NOT WANT KNIVES IN THOSE GENETICS THEY'LL JUST START KILLING EACH OTHER

ONCE AGAIN THE MERYL REM CONNECTION (referring to 98 when Vash sees Rem in Meryl)

YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH

Hello!

Hello beautiful people of Tumblr! How are ya? Good? Good! I’m Willow if ya couldn’t tell hehe! I’m a bunch of things, really pog things! I’m the host of @s1mply-syst3m and this is my own personal blog! I’m also a theiran, otherkin, fickin (though I think I may actually be a delusional attachment, I don’t know but I consider myself a fickin, please don’t say otherwise!)

I’m Incelbur! Isn’t that great? I just love being me! I’m really cool so please follow or like or send me asks! I’m also a fox theiran and my otherkin is a Starling, more on that in an another post! I have a plethora of problems and flaws, yet if you look past then I’m a pretty normal guy!

My gender is all over the place, I am gender fluid hehe. I’m mainly masc lean but I do love dressing and sometimes acting feminine! How I dress and act does NOT define my gender, however! I go by all pronouns (all, go crazy) but I prefer he/they/it (especially it!! Please treat me like an object, mwa!!!)

I’m into dsmp, writing, Gacha, art, and proship, mainly comship and I dabble into darkship! My partner is Ghostbur, whom I love very deeply, and my annoying brother is Tommy haha! Me and Ghostbur are NOT related, you can consider us Sootcest but we really aren't lol. Ghostbur and Revivebur are though! As for proship, I mainly take requests on what to write because I don’t actively ship people. I just find it very interesting as well as a coping mechanism due to childhood+early-teenage trauma!

Dsmp, I have a different AU which I will write on here someday! I could ramble about it for hours and hours hehe! I absolutely love writing!!

Please, if you are uncomfortable with proshipping of any kind, block the tag #Willow-proships!!! I don’t wanna make anyone uncomfortable at all =‘)

also, if you think anything I post is too offensive please DM me and we could probably make an agreement or I could make a new tag.

Anyhow, mwa, love you all and stay safe!

idk this one's all over the board. tldr i miss you and every time i see your url i go "!!!! marlolo!!!! my frand!!!!!!!!!!" and also i have a massive coffee rn so my thoughts are being arranged in the least coherent way possible. that was maybe the longest tldr ever. oops. OKAY BYE FOR REAL NOW TOODLELOO OR HOWEVER THAT ONE POST GOES

ILY MY FRIEND WAUGHHHH….idk if i’m any good i havent played in forever but i’d love to play board games with you……havent heard of kerplunk though. sounds like horse plinko to me idk why it reminded me of it. put ur blorbos in the kerplunk. ANYWAY. I MISS YOU TOO ILY IM SORRY I DONT CHAT MUCH the hyperfixations have also Gotten to me but i love you it’s always fun to see you on the dash and in my activity <3

[sainz100]

hello! 3 and 11 if you’d like :)

thank you Kara!!! 💞💞

3. Favorite musical artist / group you started listening to this year?

Ooh!! It's so hard to pick! Spotify says I listened to 4,964 artists/bands this year! but tbh one artist I always went back to over 2024 is Wolter Kroes 🎶❤️ I actually got into him this Spring before I got into F1 - I was insta diving for content for a Eurovision musician I used to keep up with & someone had one of Wolter Kroes' songs in their insta story. I loved the vibes! I often get music recs from insta, so I checked his discog and fell for the album De Wereld In. gosh it is SO GOOD (I listen to a lot of jams around the world [especially 90s Thai pop, schlager, and Finnish iskelmä] so v much will note my Dutch is definitely not good enough to appreciate the lyricism, but this album!! bops and jams and ballads omg) and then fast-forward to the Dutch GP this year, I was like ‼️😮✨pogging severely when Wolter was one of the artists performing there!!! with Yves Berendse! It was a wonderful surprise that had me smile at how the universe aligns in cool and unexpected ways! ❤️

11. Something you want to do again next year?

Ooh I'll pick another! I'll say go spelunking!! I adore caves and caverns ❤️ one of my favorite memories is spelunking in Mammoth Cave in Kentucky! Crawling through all the nooks and crannies so deep in the Earth!! It's quite exhilarating! I definitely would like to make a little Appalachian caving trip (and maybe visit my beloved tourist trap, Rock City, in Tennessee while out that way) 🌄✨

thank you so much for these!! ❤️✨ happy almost 2025!

[cringefailfagcat]

[blitzgamev]

hi hey hello here are some of my fav spies are forever london bits in a random order :) i am going insane about this :)

Never done a read more! Surely this'll work first try!

- The Deadliest Man Alive stinger. Him coming back on stage just to say it again for the stinger was top tier and the fact Everyone looked into the audience when it played!!

- The fact they had enough cast now to have DMA stand there visibly not enjoy his time at the ball except when people talked about pulling toenails off??

- HOLY SHIT TORTURE TANGO HELLO

- No seriously doing an extra Owen there when Curt said it and not just having him to the lil pose but also walk across stage, look around, notice what's going on AND DOING THE GUN SHOOT WITH DMA HELLO CAN ANYONE HEAR ME

- The wolf whistle during That part of the stairway scene? Whoever did that is my hero that was hilarious

- Managed to get past the booking agent for the banana yippee

- Speaking of the emoting between Curt and Owen during the slow motion fall was top tier love these actors

- The DMA into Owen reveal was so funny because Owen walked on before The Line to stand behind DMA so you couldn't even hear it over people cheering and laughing

- The slow turn while Joey narrated and the little low walk for the trap door?? Top tier

- Vanger visibly cringing every time someone said something negative about the prince was hilarious but also the implication they aren't even trying to keep it down...

- Facial expressions! Some very very good ones between Curt and Tatiana in not so bad

- DMA being like "yeah I did that look how cool I am cheer for me" at Some Point I Don't Remember like I love how the actor played him

- The deafening cheering whenever Mama Mega showed up was the most based we ever got as an audience let's go Mama Mega

- This did lead to the cheering being so much that we didn't stop when Joey came on to do the scene transition and him having to go calm down guys just doing the next scene lol

- That was definitely not helped by the insanely funny Vanger bit to start act 2 like the cyber bullying in the 60s?? Every cosplayer (pog shoutouts btw) being him??

- The little acting choices Tatiana made in general?? The suspender bit in particular

- Speaking of acting choices. The Whole of Owen's appearance at the end felt like a performance for the audience to me and I need to know if that was A Choice or if I imagined it

- Seperate but related point but spies are forever reprise being on the programme... All I've ever needed now add it to the album smile

- Argh the staircase scene... To see that in person is to be alive I think. The shaking on the gun arm on That Bit. How close Owen looked and sounded to crying during the reprise. MOVING ON OKE KING

- Barb

- Did the informant just not die here??? Good for him maybe don't get into the song next time yeah?

- Curt hesitating to take the first shot is also gonna haunt me that's always been the one issue I had with one more shot

- All the little extra flourishes in the songs were very fun love actors making it their own

- The henchmen!! They lived! I don't know that tickles me no quick changes needed so they get to Vibe and giggle

- BARON'S DEATH SCENE "ouch my back *turns around* ouch my front ouch my self *dies" <- he bows after this btw

- Joey shouting out people who were at the matinee but not the evening show was not a planned bit I bet but it Was funny

- The band!!! Hearing overture In Real Life rewired my brain

- Also a shout out to the stage hand we cheered on before the show and act 2 started

- Everyone's faces but especially Tatiana when Sergio was doing the plead reprise were top tier "what are you DOING get away"

- YOU GOTTA y-you GOTTA :) the whole song was really good loved this Cynthia

- The one handed moves for eyes ii was necessary but also just fun

- Also DMA making curt move the whole chair over and him refusing for a while for realism

- HOW COULD I EVEN FOR A MOMENT FORGET DOING THIS TOP TIER SONG TOP TIER ACTING

- The way Curt kept sputtering and touching his lips way after Tatiana got over it and also agreed it was shit way more

- Prisoner of my past is haunting In Real Life holy shit

- One step ahead :) that one moment they kept getting closer to eachother until they did the hand thing again and it looked like Owen was leaning in completely to the hug. Hey you can't do that. I wish I remembered who pushed the other away to mirror the opening betrayal line

- The final pose was so so good to see I adore spy dance and getting to stand up and clap for it was an out of body moment (I hurt my ear cheering)

This turned into a non chronological recap of the show but whatever I wrote all the energy and memory out that I had so good night tri state area . tri london area

"You keep saying that people took me away from you. No one took me away from you, dad. You haven't had me for a long time. You lost me. You lost me in the lies, the training, your obsession with your work, it was all you cared about. Things change, dad. After ava died, you weren't there. You weren't there for me or for mom. And when I tell you we hurt, we struggled, I say we hurt and struggled so goddamn much. And I'm sure you did too, but you made it so goddamn clear where your priorities lied with the family. And in my grieving, you were the only one who wasn't there. Jayson Ferin, you are someone I've known my entire life. You've known me longer than I can remember, and maybe I've made decisions that you don't agree with, but they are my decisions, and I would've hoped that in the years you've known me, that you would give me even a modicum of trust, a modicum of what I saw in you my entire goddamn childhood. And now, you stand here in front of me again, you're making the same mistakes... You don't get to just take me back, you need to earn it. And the way it stands, you're on a fast track to lose both me, and your wife. You are the strongest man I've ever known but you are a fucking pathetic father. So come on. Go ahead, finish it, do your fucking job, if that's where your priorities still lay, as they always have."

persuasion with advantage and dm inspiration. so deserved holy shit jay. i am. speechless.

"For the first time in my life, since I became a pirate, I was able to feel free."

Hello big man you are very pog and cool and i like going troguh your blog yes - a tommyinnit fictive

SO AWESOME TO MEET YOU , ENJOY YOUR STAY

[tommyssupercoolblog]

omg hello bestie how have you been!!!

HIIII I am mostly POG. I mean there is one sad thing but I am pretty happy and doing okay!!! I have been doodling a lot and last night I got to have biriyani,,, my faveorite food,,,, and before that I got to have a sleepover for the first time in years and I ate sushi and saw SICK ASS KITTY CAT SUSHI ROBOTS!!!! VERY COOL.

Sad under cut tw for animal death

If you saw the post and remember that my dog was sick and got bone cancer then like...yeah. I miss her. But she had a great last day before she went and I'm handling it good.

Losing a pet the normal way is making me realize why people were so disrespectful about a big animal death truama we had before this. It wasn't right of them. But I'm realizing that they couldn't really understand.

It sounds mean but grieving like this is so easy compared to the trauma that happened. that's how bad it was. Grief is awful but remembering last time makes this feel so....light. I'm still laughing at jokes. I can do dishes and get dressed and flirt w Seán. Life is still moving, I'm just missing someone who isn't there. It wasn't like that with the other death that happened at all.

Everyone around me seems to expect this level of okay but I'm still kinda shocked and bewildered at how functional I am. Like... I'm fine. That's so crazy.

But it's a good thing!!! And she would have wanted that. :)

So yeah I am doing very poggers!!! Just missing my dog a little bit that's all
