I've got another one:

Mark on body Soulmate AU, Dani/Anyone

I just got the idea of person A having a black mark on their face. Just one mostly circular spot. Most people doubt it's a soulmark. They think it's just a weird birthmark.

Until one day, A meets Dani. They're chasing her down because she's a random meta flying around the city. They keep almost catching her, but she suddenly disappears. Then suddenly something pokes them in the cheek and "Pbbbdth! Hahaha!"

Dani flies away. Person A is standing there shocked because that's their soulmate. Their soulmate just poked their soulmark, through their mask, and blew a raspberry!

I have to know what the ratio is. Do please elaborate in the tags.

Hey uh I feel like that those little bits in s2 e1 and s2 e18 where Hunter and another coven scout basically offer to kill people and nearly follow through without really any prompting were always a little overlooked but they really stood out to me.

...umm Hunter has probably literally murdered innocents under Belos throughout his life..

god damn jesus fuck I’m glad this kid has probably finally gotten some therapy.

speaking of misinformation, i saw a lot of people say the devs removed handholding between leon and ashley specifically bc they wanted to keep their bond platonic / didn't want people to think it was romantic. finally found the article with this supposed quote and all it said was that one guy veto-ed the handholding bc he "thought it looked like they were too close and didn't like it" which is very vague. i don't care for word of god but i'm curious as to what you think they meant by "too close"

It's impossible to know without seeing what was actually said in the original Japanese.

I also don't care LMAO

The only person who has word of god is Shinji Mikami, and Mikami doesn't give a fuck. Hasn't given a fuck in almost 20 years. Is retired now and played the remake of the game that defined his career and went "I enjoyed that" and then went back to taking pictures of ramen.

Since Mikami's departure from Capcom, RE has passed through so many different directors and producers and dev teams that all have had conflicting visions and creative directions for the series that there is no such thing as "word of god" in Resident Evil.

Dev interviews don't matter because chances are that dev in question won't even be working on the next game -- or, if they are, they won't necessarily be in the same role.

Supplementary materials aren't canon because none of them are written by the same person or approved by the same team. RE doesn't have a Kazushige Nojima like Final Fantasy does, who's writing all the supplementary stuff all on his own and keeping it in line with each other.

So, chances are, all that shit ends up blatantly contradicting what's shown canonically in the games -- because, that's usually what happens. So you can't take it as canon.

(Remember, kids: If it's not said/written/shown in any of the essential canon games or movies, it's not canon.)

And in this case, like. Even without knowing what he meant by "too close" (again, we need to see the original Japanese, because he might have meant "too close" in a very literal sense and having them be that close to each other cluttered the screen and made it hard to see) either way, people saying "they" -- as in, a majority of the dev team -- didn't want the handholding to happen is disingenuous. It wasn't "they." It was "he." Because "they" rendered Leon taking Ashley by the hand in the first place -- he said to take it away.

So, like. Okay. He did that. That's cool. Good for him.

Still kept in all the shit about Leon being the knight rescuing the princess, though. And you know what happens at the end of the story, after the knight saves the princess? THEY FUCK They live happily ever after.

So whatever. If his intention was to not have Leon and Ashley read as a romance, he fucked it up by keeping all of the actual literal romantic elements in it, AND THEN RELEASING A MATCHING SET OF ALTERNATE COSTUMES FOR THEM LITERALLY CALLED "ROMANTIC" LIKE WHAT THE FUCK LMAO THIS JUST OCCURRED TO ME

‘   It’s the inevitability of there being a man so bad that killing him felt good.  ‘ from… chris 🤓

scandal : @newsworth

this is not a dangerous conversation. it may have been, once -- it may have had the power to darken the space between them to a point that neither could ignore the shadows that it could cast upon the other, but they are well beyond that, now. shadows and light are one in the same, a question of absence or presence, and further than that, claire knows that whatever shadows he might throw are almost always resultant of the light she sheds upon him. his choice was his own, yes. but she'd set the table that it was made to protect.

she doesn't smoke anymore. it's a bad habit traded, tucked away like so many other things had been in her life once she had decided she no longer needed them. for the first time in a long time, though, the desire for one does itch in her fingers. not because of any discomfort he inspires in her, but because this is the sort of conversation meant to be had in the dark of the evening, in the cool of the air, lit only by the soft red glow of a vice that is perhaps more palatable than the one discussed. "i know what you mean."

she does -- and he does not have to clarify to her that he does not speak of any kind of sadistic enjoyment of the act, rather the understanding that the right thing had been done. ( right is always a matter of perspective . . . it helps that theirs is often a shared one. ) "i've had that thought, or something like it, quite a few times in my life . . ." a beat passes, the thought trails, and claire's head tilts faintly to the side. "i suppose we all have to hope that the evil we do is worth the good that can come of it."
