The Downfall

WARNING!! Mentions of r***, abuse, body harm, child exploitation, and manipulation. 

You have been warned.

Principle tried his best to keep his calm, but he was slowly losing control of his emotions. He was horrified, enraged, and extremely disappointed in himself.

He could barely believe that once he thought he could have a future with the one he loved. Now all that affection had completely evaporated, like morning dew under the warm morning sun. He hated that he was so blind to what Baldi was doing after he was left alone. He should have stopped this. Now his best friend was in agony because of his mistake.

It wasn’t all his fault though. He was going to make Baldi pay for all the pain and suffering he had caused the whole school.

Principle’s pace quickened, and so did his heart. It was dangerous for his heart to be beating so fast, but he needed to do this. He needed to find Baldi as fast as he could before he caused more trouble.

He was running now. Running in the halls. Breaking the rules.

Principle pushed the thought to the back of his head. This was serious. He needed to focus.

He rounded the corner, and almost collided with Mrs. Pomp, with Dr. Reflex tucked protectively against her chest. Principle gasped at the state of his best friend.

“What happened?!” He exclaimed.

Mrs. Pomp gave him a worried look. “I found him in the bathroom…He’d basically threw up most of his guts…” She responded. “I’m taking him home with me.”

Principle was a bit skeptical, but he nodded. “Okay. He needs someone to look after him-”

“You.”

Both staff startled at the sound of Baldi’s sharp voice. Principle saw him at the other end of the hall.

Baldi’s frame was tense, his eyes dark red and his right hand gripping his wooden ruler. He looked like he was about to charge at them, but instead he walked slowly toward them.

“Get him out of here,” Principle ordered to Mrs. Pomp.

The high-heel nodded sharply and turned to race in the opposite direction. Principle stood to block Baldi’s view of them as they left.

Principle’s nerves felt like someone shaking a jar of marbles. Baldi approached him, stopping inches from his face. The monster fought not to flinch away from his previous abuser. He should have done something about him a long time ago…

“You sir. You have something of mine.” 

His calm voice was a bit chilling, but still, Principle refused to back down.

Instead of responding to his statement, he decided to move the conversation to what he was looking to talk about. “Someone told me you’ve been assaulting Reflex.”

Baldi wasn’t swayed.

“I did more than ‘assaulting’,” he corrected in a sneering tone. “If you’re gonna confront me about things, at least do it right.”

Principle growled at him. “What made you think that was a good idea?? Do you know the state you’ve put Reflex in?! He looks half dead!”

Baldi rolled his eyes. “Of course I know. I might have good hearing, but I can still see idiot.”

The monster's rage only grew. “I trusted you once Baldimore. I thought you were a great person,” he snarled. “But, not only did you hurt me, and the students, but you went and did that to my best friend! Is there anything else I should know about??”

“If you’re saying that to make me feel bad, then you’re doing a terrible job.”

His nonchalance was infuriating.

Principle wanted nothing more than to give Baldi a taste of his own medicine. He could feel the hidden weapons in his back twitching in anticipation. But, Principle would be no better than him. He didn’t want to stoop to Baldi’s level.

“I asked if there was anything else I should know about,” the monster said through clenched teeth.

“Hmmm...” Baldi pretended to think by tapping a finger against his chin, but Principle got the feeling that he knew exactly what he would say. “Well...Lets see…Well abuse for one thing, then r***, murder, child abuse, p***philia, torture, and…I think that’s it…”

Principle stared at him. He couldn’t mask his shock even if there was a gun to his head. He stumbled back as Baldi stared back at him. He seemed almost…Proud… The smirk on his face…The way he stood, his arms crossed over his chest…and the way he played with his ruler…He was proud…Of all the pain and suffering he had caused so many people.

What was wrong with this man…

The monster didn’t even know that he was…Well…So terrible.

Principle didn’t even know what to say, so Baldi beat him to a response.

“Why are you so surprised?”

“YOU JUST ADMITTED TO BEING A P***PHILE!!”

“Yeah?”

Principle sighed in exasperation. Why was Baldi okay with this?? Either he was insane, or he was insane…

He shook his head. He didn’t want to deal with this. He didn’t have to.

“Listen Baldi. As much as I would love to rip you in half, I can’t do anything to you.” Afterhe said those words, he saw Baldi grow even more confident than he already was. “So I’m gonna call the police.”

Baldi scoffed, his voice growing teasing. “Shiver me timbers!! Whatever will I do?! Grow a pair Principle. The police won’t do shit to me. They never do.”

The monster was tempted into not calling the police, but he was done.

“I’m done running away from you Baldi. I’m done bowing to you.”

“Suit yourself then.”

Principle turned his back on his abuser, walking down the hall toward his office. He felt the familiar feeling of fear. The same feeling that had made him back down from asking for help when Baldi was hurting him. He thrusted it aside roughly before any of his doubting thoughts started seeping in.

The monster reached out his hand toward the phone on his desk. He pressed the phone up to his ear and typed in the number “911”. He was going to do something right for a change.

The phone ringing sound played in his ear rhythmically before it stopped abruptly.

“911, what’s your emergency?”

btw i will forever recommend just. refusing to engage in discourse. its free its easy and you literally arent missing anything LMAO - 99% of discourse on here is just on the most pointless petty shit that literally doesnt mean a single thing to anyone in real life (i am looking directly at you "pRo/AnTi" shippers), and the other 1% is genuinely important shit... that isnt going to be solved in any productive way by insulting '''the other side''' online. arguing with strangers online never changes anyones mind all youre doing is making yourself *and* your cause look annoying as hell :thumbsup: maybe chill out. find a hobby.

I don’t think sladejay works in an au where Jason is close friends with Rose before meeting Slade but the concept is funny. Jason nodding along and offering a sympathetic shoulder to cry on when Rose is complaining about her shitty dad knowing damn well that said father’s fingers were in his mouth last night

saw that one video about sam’s redstone plagiarism and it’s great that got called out, i appreciate it a lot, but i did see a lot of people in the comments saying “this is why hermitcraft is better, they always credit their sources” and i do have to unfortunately be that one annoying guy who goes “um, actually!” because the hermits do have crediting problems sometimes!

i remember in early s9, tango used a build from another person (i believe it was the copper golem build), and didn’t credit them. i don’t remember if he ever did credit them, but the community managed to find who it was and spread their build around anyway. the point of this post is not to shit on tango, or any hermit who’s done this, but to point out that the hermits are also not infallible. they’ve been making a good effort since then to keep crediting builds and redstone machines, which is in part thanks to the backlash from the community when the copper golem thing happened, i feel. in instances of proper credit, it’s really important the audience stays vigilant, because it’s possible the creator might make a mistake and forget, and it’s up to us to remind them.

again, the point here isn’t to shit on any hermit who’s done this—it’s an easy mistake to make (and i’ve already made a post about how i feel on skin crediting, which is a whole other can of worms), but i think pretending the hermits have never done anything like this, and this would never happen on hermitcraft is a little disingenuous. it would likely never happen to this scale, but. i’m pedantic, i guess, haha

i think the not knowing is the worse part.

like why did they change where Vegeta was when Cell announced the cell games in the anime

why did they make this vegeta starting shit with yamcha instead of chillin in the lab with his family? why did they take Bulma out of the lab? Why'd they say she was Out while Dr Brief was repairing 16? Why did they change Bulma working on advanced robotics to running in late with her baby?

it's the same scene except: - Bulma's actively at work being a scientist - Vegeta's not being rude to her (or anyone else!) - Vegeta waits for Trunks instead of leaving the room - Cell interrupted the airwaves, which means Trunks and Vegeta were just hanging out with Bulma and Dr B while they were working

Those are all Great Character Details!! That the anime rails against!!

what makes minedai even sadder is that we never rlly see daigo try to build a bond with anyone else like he did with mine it rlly shows how badly it effected him like yeah he reached out to shinada in y5 but that’s rlly it and he probably would wanna leave him alone after that and not involve him in any yakuza stuff so i don’t think they would’ve hung out or anything like that afterwards. All he rlly had were saejima and majima but they were more like babysitters than anything, wish we saw more of their dynamic tho like we did with majima and daigo in dead souls since that was fun and we were lowkey robbed but in canon he’s just as lonely as he was before majimas promise to kiryu. And mine is the only person he really had a meaningful relationship with romantic or not they were still really close and we don’t see that again with daigo ever (from what i recall after y3) ok sorry for rambling LMFAO

even with shinada, he reached out to him more so out of 'duty' and trying to make up for the misfortune that befell him because of yakuza than wanting to rekindle any kind of friendship they might have had in high school (though it sounds more like they were just acquaintances if shinada needing a second to remember who daigo was is anything), so yah i doubt they really had any kind of bond afterwards

dead souls really was the only time after Y3 where we got to see daigo be more sociable with someone, but its as you say majima and saejima are more like retainers than close friends

While I do like the Eldritch MK theory, someone suggested that instead of being the reincarnation of a past enemy, MK is instead a sacrificial lamb for an enemy to come back (with him being referred to as harbinger).

Which raises a whole other question of who he is meant to be a sacrifice for.

Baby MK overall gives off the kind of vibes where he was created to be destroyed, doesn't he? I mean, why else create a "simple creature, with no past, no family, and no name". If something was just born (from a stone or not) of course it doesn't have any of those things—why specify it? You would only specify a detail like that if it was significant to why MK was created in the first place.

Which, this thought is not exclusive to Eldritch Abomination MK or to Harbinger MK, overall that feels like the implication. MK was made to be sacrificed in one way or another, whether that's to stop a past enemy, a returning one, or some other thing.

So, with MK being a sacrifice to chaos, I'm wondering why he would be given so much power. *throws dart at my idea board* Maybe he was made as some sort of ticking time bomb, created to destroy himself plus whatever threat he was meant to be a sacrifice for. *throws another dart* Or, perhaps he was created to be able to go toe to toe with whatever ends up being the embodiment of chaos!

Just to throw another dart at the wall: maybe MK was made as a counter measure to chaos itself! "There's a reason you were at the center of all these stories", that reason being to maintain balance and prevent the end of the world (of which he's done like, 4 times over now). "You don't use a weapon...you ARE a weapon!" aka MK is the ultimate weapon against literally any big bad.

Of course I'm partial to my own theory, but this is definitely a neat idea!
