#Super Dodgeball Beats

[freddie-77-ao3]

garden games camp half blood has banned, a non extensive list:

tag. any version of tag. a lot of kids can teleport/shadow travel or have super speed, and the ones that don't DO NOT appreciate playing tag with them. It wasn't officially banned until cecil, connor, and chris teamed up in what became known as the "battle of the c's" and demolished everyone (all 263 kids playing) within three minutes and fifty-eight seconds. travis still has nightmares.

Freeze tag in particular was banned when someone with winter/ice powers misunderstood and actually ended up freezing a couple of demigods. Poor Chris never looked the same.

ring around the rosie. fun fact, this is how michael yew got claimed! yeah... not actually fun considering he started going on about how the song was about the bubonic plague and then GAVE clarisse the bubonic plague because... it sounded like a good idea at the time?

Red Light Green Light. Again, teleportation/superspeed. It had fallen out of favour, but was officially banned when five year olds Will and Connor both ended up in the infirmary because Connor kept cheating, Will got mad and started yelling, and a tree nymph got mad and tripped both of them.

Sharks and Minnows: surprisingly, not a superspeed/teleportation related ban. No, it got banned when nine year old Clarisse tripped Michael so she could make her way to freedom, but Michael fell into Annabeth and she fell too... Annabeth beat both of them up for causing her to lose. Miranda still talks about how she won. Annabeth still glares every time Miranda talks about it.

Simon Says. Sherman won all of Ares Cabin's cash by saying Simon Says give your money to Sherman, and Ares cabin refuses to back down from a challenge. This then turned into a riot when Sherman didn't give the money back.

duck duck goose. there's already an incorrect quote about "fuck, fuck, shit", need I say more? yes, actually, because that's not why it was banned. It was banned because travis gave beckendorf a concussion by hitting his head too hard.

musical chairs. they broke the chairs. the steel, extra reinforced chairs. because instead of playing, they were fighting over who's music to turn on.

dodgeball: certain someones (ellis and cecil) swapped out the dodgeballs for firework grenades. aka fireworks that are motion activated. that only activate when they hit their target. Auto banned... after it happened for the third time.

The floor is lava: michael climbed lee like a tree to win, and so did clarisse. Lee fell over. carrying several jars of nectar. yeah...

jump ropes with rhymes: apollo cabin is very creative when it comes to coming up with rhymes. a little too creative. banned.

hide and seek: so many incidents. so many. also malcolm kept winning and drew kept getting mad, and they started fighting, which meant they both lost...

I FINALLY GOT ACCESS TO ISSUE 71 OMG

this took forever but finally i get to see him!! spoilers ahead :3

first of all, amazing cover. jet and the gang look amazing just in that one snippet

extreme gear dodgeball... thats interesting, reminds me of the multiplayer modes in riders zg that was not racing but fun!

HOW DARE YOU MAKE MY BOY ANGRY wave helping jet focus is nice like in zero gravity 💚

the rouges being in shock is always so funny, im glad to see wave and storm join in on the fun 💚

WOAHHH LOL dang sonic's going hard!!

i now headcannon wave has a mindfullness youtube video she makes jet begrudgingly watch LOL 💚

i love seeing them using their gear more, it fuels my autism 💚💚💚

THIS IS SO FREAKING FUNNY I LOVE IT, AND HOW DARE SHE CRASH IN JETS GEAR!! anyway love him /p 💚

AMAZING I WANNA SEE HIM ANGRYYY, BEAT THEM UP JET!!! ��100 gonna use this part for art ref because it looks so good

the silence is so loud in this picture i love it, i wonder what jets gonna do? 😊

oh my gosh this is so heartbreaking actually what the heck- ALSO WAVE TELLING JET TO RUN IS SO ON POINT

the story telling via art is on point, theres not much words needed to convey the emotions the characters are feeling

THEY HAVE A NEW ROOM, I REPEAT THEY HAVE A KITCHEEEEEEEEN, storm being the cook fits so well i love it.

the food (curry im guessing) fits their background and double points for looking extra yummy.

jet's first sentence fits him so well, im really glad they're doing good depiction with him and everything relating to them, considering the idw special where jewel broke her wing SUCKED because of idw ppl not thinking about where jet lives on the ship, so they made it SUPER inacurate.

it makes me happy to see storm contributing and not being a stupid fat joke like in free riders. we need to appreciate this silly guy who got brain damage from amy hitting him many times, and he still manages to fulfil jets orders.

storm doing this with his eyes is as good as his eyes in free riders, but way better than his weird blink in the zero gravity black hole cutscene

jet being ahead of the game and i love it!!! NEW MISSION LETS GOOO!!!!!! 💚💚💚💚

these riders designs are really helping me in the future with my own oc 🫶

OMG THE WIFE OF THE TRAIN CONDUCTOR FROM MURDER OF SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!!!

ouch my heart

oh gosh thats so sweet but sad ugh

jet has become more thoughtful! i just hope he doesn't lose his edge, but even if he does i'll love him anyway /p 💚

i love how much talented ppl are in this community, im so glad for more jet content via idw and fan creations. jet needs all the praise and love. 💚

Overall i loved this idw issue, i can always make the excuse " use more jet content!" but they did a really good job with expressing all the characters fairly. (still, i still want more jet tho :P)

i waited so long for this issue its crazy, idk why it took so long to come out digitally since i don't have the money to buy them in person.

knowing more rooms, might create an accurate layout of their blimp soon!

anyway, i got a gaming pc and not a stupid mac earlier this week, meaning that i can finally play free riders yayy!!!

Jay as a Mentor Headcanons:

Jay as a mentor and combat trainer to young students would defs try to make training fun

Tries to make a safe space for his queer and neurodivergent students

Focus on speed!!!!

Everyone has running training ;-;

He would use dodgeball to teach the kids evasive manoeuvres as well as lazer tag and paint ball to practice military tactics, battle strategies and teamwork (to everyone else it looks like he’s messing around but he has a purpose to it)

Sets video games as homework to improve hand eye coordination and speed of information processing

When it comes to hand to hand combat, he pairs students against each other based on matching skill levels (poor baby still remembers constantly being beat at hand to hand combat when he trained with the others)

Super chill but still keeps the kids in line

Gets into petty arguments and debates with the kids about sci-fi related stuff but always has long winded and surprisingly rational supporting points

Eg: Batman vs. Superman and Godzilla vs. Kong

100% accepts dares and challenges from students, pathologically can’t say no

Hypothetically if elemental masters could choose students to give their powers to (like how Zane was chosen to have ice powers) and Jay could transfer his powers to his students, he would let each of them focus on the aspect of electricity that they wanted

Eg: the brute force of electricity, healing capacities and bio electricity, speed based attacks, electric weaponry etc.

[kindlespark]

Which of the ratgrinders would be good at P.E Dodgeball and which ones would crush at Monopoly? (Or really any board game you think it would be fun to think about them playing in the downtime)

THIS IS SO FUN ok so i think oisin would be the obvious answer for dodgeball seeing as he got buff over summer BUT i think he's not used to his strength or size yet and is still super clumsy. so i think the answer is actually ivy bc she's got the sharp reflexes and the competitive streak. the latter being what mary ann is missing else she would also own the dodgeball field. (also bc she's so tiny she'd be great at dodging.... i forgot kobolds were so small... the art did NOT reflect that).

for monopoly i think kipperlilly's mastermind rogue thing makes her strategy crazy but sometimes mary ann gives her a run for her money bc she's the type of gamer who spends all her time on forums learning the best strategies for her collector card games and she'll sneak up on kipperlilly FOR SURE especially because she's so quiet and nonchalant. the first time mary ann beat her kipperlilly promised herself she'd never underestimate mary ann ever again (and then lost to ruben because she got too singularly focussed).

i think they let buddy win games sometimes out of pity <3

Dexter (Updated)

Powers, Abilities, and Weapons

Despite having no superpowers, Dexter is a force to be reckoned with:

Super-Genius Intelligence: Dexter is one of the smartest humans on Earth, who despite his young age created his own lab and have made great discoveries and scientific inventions.

Chemical Intuition: Likely a result of his own master-intelligence, Dexter possesses a chemical intuition, allowing him to understand chemistry on high level and do research in the field.

Master Mechanic and Inventor: Dexter has master-intellect which allows him to create and repair scientific wonders and sci-fi machinery. His list of inventions includes but aren’t limited to:

Chodenji Yoyo:

Dexo-Transformer: An exoskeleton designed to use it in order to beat some bullies during dodgeball practise, later used against the Powerpuff Girls.

Glasses:

Gynoid:

Laboratory:

Large Hadron Collider:

Lasergun:

Lightsaber:

Magnet Hookshot:

Monkey:

Portal:

Powergauntlet:

Powergloves:

Set Squares:

Supercomputer:

Hand-to-hand Combat: Despite his small stature and geeky appearance, he does possess a basic hand-to-hand combat skill.

Marksman: Dexter has shown to be able to throw geometry triangles and “Dexterrangs” like boomerangs and ninja stars, with a high accuracy. He also is able to fire a grappling magnet with that same accuracy.

Mecha Piloting: Dexter is a capable Mecha Pilot and has used this to pilot several of his own mechas.

Swordmanship: Dexter is able to wield a rapier and light saber in battle.

Appearance

Dexter is a bit short, although somewhat taller than in his original appearance. He has ginger curly hair with some spikes at his crown and a short mullet. He still wears his semi-circular glasses. but it is revealed that he has blue eyes. Most of the times he is seen wearing a white lab-coat, the top half buttoned while the bottom is left unbuttoned. Underneath he wears a normal black shirt. He wears blue pants and are stuck into his black boots. In addition to that he also wears purple gloves. In his school uniform he still wears the same only his white lab shirt more open.

Personality

Dexter is a supremely brilliant boy with a vast knowledge of all sciences. Though American, Dexter speaks in a Russian accent. However, Dexter also possesses a massive ego and hates all things that are stupid. But unlike the TV series, he’s notably more mature in personality being less arrogant and more caring, especially since he’s a member of the Genie Team. Despite being excessively irritated with Dee Dee due to her constant interference and stupidity in the past, he still loves her and cares about her.

As a side note: after meeting the Twin Cities Zephyr twins, Jimmy Goard and Jerry Guord, Dexter called Ratchet and Wheeljack and told the two about what the two streamliners said about his lab recieving Cybertronian upgrades and Cybertronian supercomputers. After Zachery (me) explored the lab with Ash, May, Max, Ukyo, Shampoo, Norman and Caroline, Dexter’s Laboratory received those Cybertronian upgrades from Ratchet and Wheeljack, who used Cybertronian technology to make the lab even greater. Dexter, after being taught by the two Autobots on how to use the Cybertronian upgrades, is very greatful and uses the Cybertronian-upgraded technology to make his inventions and uses the Cybertronian-upgraded computers to type away at. Some of these Cybertronian-upgraded computers are the same type as the one seen in the Project Chimera segments of the show “Transformers Prime”, albeit with lights+shades of blue and white rather than orange and yellow. And these computers have a similar function; Cybertronian robotic engineering and robotic construction. There are also Cybertronian-upgraded supercomputers that Dexter uses to keep files of his experiments safe and some of the Cybertronian-upgraded supercomputers are used to analyze ancient languages and decipher them, as well as being able to help identify different animal species and being in frequent contact with the Autobots on Cybertron. And last but not least, Dexter uses the regular supercomputers and the Cybertronian-upgraded supercomputers to analyze and identify the best strategies for the Genie Team to use when facing baddies, kinda like Sailor Mercury’s visor and little supercomputers. The boy genius also has a collection of iPad Pro sized iPads with holographic screens (like in detective pikachu). And Dexter was also given a collection of exosuits (similar to the one as seen in rise of the beasts) to use whenever he needs to or if his Dexo-Transformer (the exoskeleton he used against Buttercup) gets fatally damaged.

HII OMG YHS BLOG!! For some reason I was super fixated on Domrao the entire series.. maybe some pinning headcanons for him? :0 love your work so far!

oh my gosh my first request !! Thank you so much for this, it means a lot to me /gen!! Dom has always been one of my favorites but his characterization is slightly trick for me, so I hope it’s alright! Sorry for taking a while, too :( request again if you feel like it! 💕💕

︶︶︶ ⊹ ︶︶︶ ୨♡୧ ︶︶︶ ⊹ ︶︶︶

Okay so First off, this guy… COMPLETELY confused at his own feelings. Dom has never been the best with articulating his thoughts (he much rather deal with things in violence), but with a swirl of emotions that feel so utterly soft, he, for once, isn’t completely sure that his fists are the best way to go…

Of course, he first has to confide in Prime. He talks about how you’re always on his mind, and about how much he just wants to squeeze you or something. You get his heart pounding, just like the adrenaline he gets from beating up Sam! Just— what an enigma you are, though, because for some reason… he can’t think of you as annoying.

I mean, sure, the feelings that you’re causing are annoying; but you, yourself? Dom ends up balling his fists and biting his knuckles, unsure of how to explain his strange thoughts. Wasn’t it weird for him to be thinking of you as… cute? Funny? Cool? Maybe he just wanted to be your friend, or —

…Oh no.

While ranting to Prime, Dom stops mid-sentence as he realizes what the hell is happening in his head. He’s in love. AND HE DOESN’T LIKE IT.

Except he kind of does, because now whenever you look at him he gets really happy and — OH NO OH SHIT OH FUCK

Dom was never really an artsy kid, finding PE to be his more suitable favorite subject, but now he spends his classes trying to figure out how to write some sort of… confession. I mean, the guy is nervous about how he feels, but he’s simultaneously determined about getting what he wants. If he can make a poem, maybe you like it! That’s what romantic people do, right?? And—

“You’re losing your touch!” Sam would yell at him, knocking him out of a dodgeball round. How had it even turned into PE?? WHY WAS HE SO UNFOCUSED? Oh right — you.

Dom tries not to do anything super cheesy, like write love notes or get paired up with you in classes, but he totally wants to. Even though all his written confessions get crumpled up, Invader and Prime can definitely tell. (And invader is determined to get you two together!)

OH BUT he’s definitely the type to try-hard in PE to try and impress you!!

Overall, he tries to keep up his tough guy persona, but he’s still emotional and brash. So… he’s confused.

[nokingsonlyfooles]

No dodgeball, please

I have verbal difficulties. Not a stutter, like Biden. I "lose my words," as I am supposed to say, to be nice, but I don't always say it like that because I lose my words. It takes extra effort for me to communicate the way people expect me to communicate, and when I can't, and I hear myself making more and more pauses and errors, it snowballs.

This, the way the media is covering this, is not fucking fair. Everyone trips over language sometimes, and people who have to work harder to talk will do it more. Period. Now, that can't have been all that was going on at the debate, but every last misstep is not another indication the man is going senile.

HOWEVER, the media blitz that Biden is spearheading to stave off rumours of senility would take a toll from anyone - let alone someone who has to work extra hard to talk. His campaign team are requiring him to talk, and talk, and fly somewhere, and talk some more, and then everyone combs over what he said wrong, and they report it or make fun of it or tell him he has to stop screwing up like that.

If this doesn't stop, and I don't see any indication it will, he is going to melt down again, BADLY, like at the debate. If you need extra energy to talk, and you don't have that energy because you've been talking constantly, you will not be able to talk anymore - until you have a long, stress-free break. That's just how it works, no matter what age you are. But I must assume that if you are 81, you might need a little more time.

If we're lucky, he'll break down on camera before he gets the nomination. If this really is the worst timeline, it'll be after. And all the donors and reporters and supporters who already flipped out and felt used and betrayed because they got blindsided will say, "Fuck this shit. I'm out." Their credibility is worth more than this election, they're all planning to be here for the next one.

I don't wish that on anyone, but simple honesty like, "Hey, I need to slow down" or, God forbid, "I need some accommodations" is not an option for the narrative Team Biden has chosen. The debate went badly, but whatever the reason, it's not important and it won't happen again. They don't seem to have any idea that they're making sure it WILL happen again.

Politically, I don't know how in the hell you come back from "Sometimes I can't communicate." I can't even manage it socially, but I am not out there trying to be a politician or saying I'm the only man who can beat Trump. I decided not to hold an entire country hostage to soothe my own ego - as one should. Nobody involved in this is showing any basic competence or treating human beings like living creatures who need care. They just want to win. A superhuman powerhouse would look super electable, wouldn't he?

I dunno. I'm not looking for an ubermensch, myself, but they're not interested in my vote. I don't want Apollo's dodgeball... I DO NOT WANT THE DODGEBALL. I want to be scrolling through my back posts years from now and go, "Ha-ha, how silly I was." But... I think they're gonna push him until he breaks. And then I dunno what's gonna happen.

🍔, ⚾️, 👻

🍔- What kind of food does your muse usually eat? Do they have a favorite food, or favorite style of food? Do they have allergies? Are they vegan, vegetarian, etc.?

// rika tries to mantain a healthy and varied diet. she's not picky and there's few things in foods she can't tolerate. from meat, to fish, to veggies and everything in between, she's all good with almost anything. however she does have a sweet tooth - she really likes ice cream and churros, and you can see her eating them at any time of year. as for more lunch based foods, she has a weakness for pinchitos, tortillas de patata, quesadillas and salisbury steaks, the latter of which are often sold at barato's.

she doesn't have any allergies, nor is she vegan/vegetarian. although she's not lactose intolerant however, she does prefer to drink lactose-free milk, as it's easier for her stomach. doesn't mean she can't drink regular milk but she can handle lactose-free better.

⚾️- Does your muse enjoy sports? Do they play any, or do they simply prefer to watch? Do they have a favorite sport?

// she was a master of dodgeball as a kid, and really enjoys playing baseball. due to her current job though she doesn't really have any time to indulge in those things, but she enjoys going for a jog every once in a while and working out, even when it's for a short time.

👻- How does your muse handle feeling scared? Do they enjoy horror? Do they believe in the paranormal? What calms your muse down? Do they have any scary stories?

// she has the very normal fear of people she loves simply abandoning her, or her fucking up in a way that causes them to never want to talk with her anymore. but she's also super afraid of something horrible happening to them. let's face it - as a teen, she used to be rather reckless and hasty, and geeta knows the amount of times she's almost adventured into dangerous areas either because of a dare or to 'look cool'.

but that's one of the reasons she's so protective of the player character when she discovers they went into area zero: precisely because one time she ventured somewhere she shouldn't have gone, and nearly endangered herself. if it hadn't been for geeta and her own wooper, she probably would've taken a severe beating at the least, or even lost her life at worst. i'd like to expand onto this in the future-

but going back to the questions. she kind of. screams (whether internally or externally) but desperately tries to find a solution to the problem, either by fleeing or facing it head on, depending on what it is. she believes in the baseline paranormal of the pokémon world, which are ghost pokémon.

as for things that relax her after a terrible situation has transpired, holding her hand and rubbing her shoulders/back works. and as it's customary to give to my muses, she finds the touch of fluffy/squishy things relaxing, like plushes full of beads or blankets, as well as someone's arm. and i have the headcanon she keeps a small fidget toy in her pockets she barely takes out of there, as she prefers putting her hands in her pockets and using it covertly.

[knowlessman]

uh. been a minute. super kids playing dodgeball. bnha s3e17-21

who is this kid with the teeth they keep showing in the intro

oh yeah, the Ninja Clan Hidden in the Teletubby House 'XD -- "Team TeleNinja is blasting off again!"

Not much to say about Momo outsmarting Princess Mind Palace. yeah. that was things, that was cool

if this weirdo with the hat turns people into blobs but those blobs somehow don't have the targets on them any more… how exactly does he win?

blinks …that was a whole episode, huh. welp, next

I keep expecting the first beats of the last OP. this one ain't bad either, tho.

oh, everybody has six pokeballs each. thought they only had three for some reason.

"If I were given eight hours to chop down a tree, I would spend the first six sharpening my axe." Knowing me, I'd spend the first seven and a half doing fuckall and then cut my own arm off trying to use a rented chainsaw.

you with the hat. why haven't you just passed the flippin test already? assuming you can un-blob people, and kirishima hasn't just been killed off out of nowhere, how far up your own ass do you have to be to not just un-blob a couple people and take your license? presumably, they're more than a little discombobulated when they come out of it, so they should be easy pickings.

It's time… to D-D-D-D-DANCE! (idk I couldn't think of any other D words to do with being zapped)

okay, and I guess laserguts is sending up this beacon for… some kind of reason?

and nobody wanted to tell kota that that mask makes him look like howard the duck.

"yay, I can take a nap now!" -- oh. there's still another test left. of course.

huh. Cousin Itt's polite.

"we know it's a rescue training mission, but we gotta give bakugo something to do or we'd have to fail him"

…a filler episode in the middle of what's sort of a filler arc? -- all might with regular eyes still weirds me tf out

so, it's a recap of the movie? or a prequel to the movie, or, something

…what is this sposed to be and why is it here

still can't get over how much all might's villain costume makes him look like caiman from dorohedoro

why is this crammed in the middle of a completely unrelated arc tho

pffft 'XD oh come on, they just assumed all might was corpsing because he's not a good actor

if this is sposed to tell you about the movie, then after this do I get to bitch about them uncanoning melissa's gauntlets? …wait the current arc hasn't even wrapped up yet, the continuity here is just beyond fucked.

huh. so windy guy is just if syndrome had taken it differently and just tried to be a angy hero instead (also if heroes hadn't gone underground I guess).

Hair guy is pretty cool

ain't really that late, but I think I'mma leave the last four episodes of the season for next time.

Grab n' Throw a ridiculous sports game is incoming

Grab n' Throw new first person PvP game already has Proton for Linux via Windows PC. Thanks to the mad commitment and effort of developer Golden Syrup Games. Due to make its way onto Steam. A new game Grab n' Throw, is a variety of different game modes and maps. while focusing around throwing your own team mates to win. Which you can either play on your own or with friends. Grab n' Throw is built to be super quick to get into - no long loading screens. So just two clicks and you're into a game. It's a design that scales down to just 2 people within a region. All while still being fun, or against AI if you prefer singleplayer. It's built on Unreal Engine 4, and will be on Steam, which also has great networking. The aim is to have a demo available this year. While offering a full release for the game next year. According to the developers email reply, Proton support works already.

I was originally planning to do a Linux build. But I think I'll just use Steam's Proton. I've tested it and it works really well.

Meaning, Grab n' Throw will have Proton support on day-one. Although there may still be hope for a native Linux build. But it's still too early for details about Steam Deck verification. But check out the trailer below.

Grab n' Throw Announcement Trailer

Who doesn't appreciate a good interactive first-person game? Those that do not literal sandbox titles. While at the same time making you want to explore the edges of anyway. So that's what Golden Syrup is developing. Oh, and there are power-ups in Grab n' Throw.

A quick sample of the game modes:

Hole in One - Throw force is cranked up massively. Fly through the air, kilometres at a time, and try to land in a golf hole that moves further away. Make your way across a 256 km^2 map. Bounce off randomly placed surfaces, and score extra points for holes in one. Making the longest throw in Grab n' Throw

Bombarda - Dodgeball crossed with soccer, except instead of balls you throw stacks of your own team-mates. Every goal tilts the whole field against you! Take the offensive and try to win on goals. Or hang back and smash into the other team to beat them with outs!

Volley Bash - Throw your team-mates across the net to score goals by slamming into the ground.

Lawyer Launch - Run through a high-rise office building and hurl more lawyers out of windows than your opponents.

Grab n' Throw first person PvP game is coming to Steam next year. Along with support for Linux via Proton using the Windows PC build.

Amazing attractions

Some of the best attractions you can find at an indoor playground include:

·         Trampolines: Give your kid a chance to soar through the air by jumping around or playing dodgeball on the trampolines.

·         Climbing walls: Challenge your climbing skills by making your way up to the top of the climbing walls, assisted by an auto-belay system.

·         Spider tower: Spider towers are great for kids as they use their muscles to climb level by level.

Really a Violin Camp?

Boy, they don't make plastic like they used to. Have you ever heard someone say that?  Like NEVER! But I did hear it muttered recently and thought, wow I'll never hear that probably ever again. I also learned this week that some people sent their kids this summer to "Violin Camp". I'd never heard of a Violin Camp before. I can picture it being super fancy. The kids might wear dressy clothes, no tank tops, and flip-flops. And imagine the fun swanky snacks they're served? An endless supply of Snapple in glass bottles. No cheap O freeze pops, but expensive Popsicles. For desserts, each kid with their ice cream gets a bottle of Magic Shell. One table probably has just gourmet chocolates and Sushi. If I find out that they serve things wrapped in bacon, I'm going to apply for a counselor position next summer.  At the camps, I attended we had pretzel sticks and orange slices for snacks and perhaps a pitcher of orange kool-aid.  The instructors moved us around with cattle prods. Don't get me wrong I love the violin, I just didn't realize they had a special camp.  Can you name one well know violin player?  Not me either.  Can you name any famous harmonica players?  Most could.  Off the top of my head, I'd say Stevie Wonder and Bob Dylan. I would love to attend a Harmonica camp. I'll admit I hang out with a more harmonica crowd than a violin crowd. If I showed up at my buddies get together and pulled out a violin they'd give me a load of crap. But if I hauled out a harmonica they'd say "Go at it, Boxcar Willie". Where I grew up I'd be afraid to let kids know if I attended a Violin Camp. My Uncle Bob when I was growing up had six boys who would have beat the heck out of me if I bragged about attending Violin Camp. Heck, I spent part of my youth up a tree to stay safe from them after they heard I played dodgeball in school. (They claimed dodgeball was a sissy game.  I was told at their school they played dodge rocks.  Yep, you think movies like Halloween and Friday the 13th are scary.  That's nothing compared to an afternoon with those cousins.) I think if you have a kid that plays violin you need to give it a badass vibe. Perhaps a few questionable tattoos. How about a hand tattoo? A couple of funky earrings? Getting a Mohawk haircut is not off the table.  What games would violin camp attendees play during breaks?  Perhaps "Ring Around the Tesla" or "Pin the Tail on the Au Pair"?  I am a music lover, I just was curious when I head about Violin Camp.  Oh those ruff-neck cousins grew up and I ran into them at a wedding.  I was surprised how good of dancers they all were.  I asked my Uncle about it and he laughed and said:  "I think those six boys always waiting to get in the bathroom helped them develop some good moves."

My review of Super Dodgeball Beats. Bottom line: it's a mediocre rhythm game that has nothing to do with dodgeball.

Dexter

Powers, Abilities, and Weapons

Despite having no superpowers, Dexter is a force to be reckoned with:

Super-Genius Intelligence: Dexter is one of the smartest humans on Earth, who despite his young age created his own lab and have made great discoveries and scientific inventions.

Chemical Intuition: Likely a result of his own master-intelligence, Dexter possesses a chemical intuition, allowing him to understand chemistry on high level and do research in the field.

Master Mechanic and Inventor: Dexter has master-intellect which allows him to create and repair scientific wonders and sci-fi machinery. His list of inventions includes but aren't limited to:

Chodenji Yoyo:

Dexo-Transformer: An exoskeleton designed to use it in order to beat some bullies during dodgeball practise, later used against the Powerpuff Girls.

Glasses:

Gynoid:

Laboratory:

Large Hadron Collider:

Lasergun:

Lightsaber:

Magnet Hookshot:

Monkey:

Portal:

Powergauntlet:

Powergloves:

Set Squares:

Supercomputer:

Hand-to-hand Combat: Despite his small stature and geeky appearance, he does possess a basic hand-to-hand combat skill.

Marksman: Dexter has shown to be able to throw geometry triangles and "Dexterrangs" like boomerangs and ninja stars, with a high accuracy. He also is able to fire a grappling magnet with that same accuracy.

Mecha Piloting: Dexter is a capable Mecha Pilot and has used this to pilot several of his own mechas.

Swordmanship: Dexter is able to wield a rapier and light saber in battle.

Appearance

Dexter is a bit short, although somewhat taller than in his original appearance. He has ginger curly hair with some spikes at his crown and a short mullet. He still wears his semi-circular glasses. but it is revealed that he has blue eyes. Most of the times he is seen wearing a white lab-coat, the top half buttoned while the bottom is left unbuttoned. Underneath he wears a normal black shirt. He wears blue pants and are stuck into his black boots. In addition to that he also wears purple gloves. In his school uniform he still wears the same only his white lab shirt more open.

Personality

Dexter is a supremely brilliant boy with a vast knowledge of all sciences. Though American, Dexter speaks in a Russian accent. However, Dexter also possesses a massive ego and hates all things that are stupid. But unlike the TV series, he's notably more mature in personality being less arrogant and more caring. Despite being excessively irritated with Dee Dee due to her constant interference and stupidity in the past, he still loves her and cares about her.

As a side note: after meeting the Autobots, Dexter’s Laboratory received upgrades from Ratchet and Wheeljack, who used Cybertronian technology to make the lab even greater. Dexter, after being taught by the two Autobots on how to use the Cybertronian upgrades, is very greatful and uses the Cybertronian-upgraded technology to make his inventions and uses the Cybertronian-upgraded computers to type away at. Some of these Cybertronian-upgraded computers are the same type as the one seen in the Project Chimera in Transformers Prime, albeit with shades of blue and rather than orange and yellow. And these computers have a similar function; Cybertronian robotic engineering and robotic construction. There are also Cybertronian-upgraded supercomputers that Dexter uses to keep files of his experiments safe and some of the Cybertronian-upgraded supercomputers are used to analyze ancient languages and decipher them, as well as being able to help identify different animal species. And last but not least, Dexter uses the regular supercomputers and the Cybertronian-upgraded supercomputers to analyze and identify the best strategies for the Genie Team to use when facing baddies, kinda like Sailor Mercury’s visor and little supercomputers.

And Zachery (@zponds/me) is super eager to meet Dexter in person and see his whole lab as Zach has seen the show Dexter’s Laboratory ever since the golden days of the (now deceased) channel called Boomerang. Not only that, Zachery’s (my) friends from the 20 big American railroads are eager to meet Dexter too.

Blech. More LOTF AU headcanons.

I pulled these out of the garbage

Ralph is quite the gossip and uses his knowledge as a way of "convincing" people to do favors for him. He learns everyone's secrets on Snapchat and Insta, of course, and no one can get back at him because of how much power he holds over the teachers

Simon is the type to scrawl poems on the bathroom stalls, and Maurice is the type to write "ur mom" or draw Among Us crewmates over said poetry

Despite being a straight-laced goody-two-shoes during his classes, Ralph is absolutely FERAL in gym class and sports. He won't hesitate to break a few bones- whether they're his or someone else's- just to get a handful of extra points for his team

Robert is the DJ at all the dances and school social events, but he's on the brink of being fired because he played the instrumentals of Cupcakke songs and a few teachers recognized the beat

Jack always brings a salad in a tupperware box for his school lunch, and shakes it up for like six minutes before he eats it. He also talks super loudly, and you can hear him halfway across the lunchroom on most days

Sam n Eric are always playing Minecraft or something from Cool Math Games during class, which also means that they're the masters of clicking off websites just before a teacher walks by their desks

Jack may be a self-proclaimed theatre kid, but, like Ralph, he's WILD in gym class. If you're playing dodgeball against Jack, there's no way you're NOT ending up in the nurse's office by the end of class

Roger's music is always turned up to the maximum volume, so you can hear it through his headphones all the time. He's particularly fond of Deftones, Green Day (but only the American Idiot album), goth rock in general, and, although he refuses to admit it, Doja Cat. If you even SUGGEST that he listens to her, you'll end up seriously regretting it

Piggy was that one kid who read a 400+ page book a day in primary school, and now reading is engraved into his personality, even though he hardly reads anything that isn't school-related anymore

Bill is a DSMP stan. The only reason he isn't getting bullied into hell is because he's sort-of friends with Jack

Simon works with the Drama Club as a crew member; he paints the backdrops, however, he wishes he were more confident so he could try out for an acting part

No one is allowed to bully Jack's friends unless they're also part of the crew. Jack strictly enforces this rule by intimidating/extorting/beating up outsiders who dare to taunt a choir kid

Maurice always initiates the "breakdance circle" at social events

Piggy is that one kid in the "nerds club" that every other nerd hates. He's TOO smart, TOO arrogant, TOO obnoxious, TOO much of a rule-follower. He's a teacher's pet and uses that to his advantage as much as possible
