:O Kip's mate has finally been revealed!!! And his name is Night? Cooool.

🍲 ex-thundrclan-kipper Follow

Yeah haha. Technically his full name is Night Hunter, Bringer of Darkness, but it feels so weirdly formal calling him that, so I usually stick to just Night.

Hahaaaaa.... my mother found out ive been slowly dyeing my ginger patches black...

🪺 robbbinpaw Follow

Why would you do that??? Being a tortie is so cool, I wish I had ginger patches! They're so pretty, why do you want to get rid of them???

🥬 rxttencatmint Follow

Uhm. Gender dysphoria??

Like. I know cis male tortoiseshells exist but they're so rare that most cats take one look at me and go "oh, tortie, must be a girl" and that hurts.

🪺 robbbinpaw Follow

OH STARCLAN im so sorry Rot i wasnt even thinking about you being trans, I probably sounded really insensitive... I do understand what you're saying now.

Didn't even ask, how did your mom take it? Does she know why?

🥬 rxttencatmint Follow

You're fine <3 I get it. And no, she uh.. has no clue why I did it, she thinks I'm in my "emo phase" or something.

🐍 xviper-the-fagx

Uhh unrelated but what do you use to dye your fur?? Asking for... science...

#"science" meaning i am also a tortie tboy #well technically i'm calico but ykwim

I can't be the only one here who thinks it's unfair to allow kittypets on this site. Posting pictures of themselves and their mates inside of the twolegplace, influencing the young kits on this site to abandon their Clans... surely everyone else sees the problem with this as well.

This is Clanblr, not "Kittypetblr". This was specifically made as a space for Clan cats to connect, not for kittypets to push their lifestyle on us.

They're going to convince our kits to abandon their home and their belief in StarClan just for a more secure life.

#EXACTLY #I only recently found out ex-tc Kipper was a kittypet #it was so upsetting to me because i've always loved his wood-scratch art #to find out he's a clan-abandoner was so saddening

The recent drama surrounding Kipper the Kittypet is sad and I hate that he's being bashed just for existing, but it's also incredibly stupid. I believe the cat who wrote the original post said something like, "it's CLANblr, not KITTYPETblr," and then something about belief in StarClan and I just... do you even realize how many Clanblr mods are non-Clan and/or don't believe in StarClan?

To name a few, @s-t-a-r-burning is former WindClan now rogue & openly an atheist, @theshadowhaseyes has been a kittypet his whole life, and @ssuunnrraayy-p has made zir entire blog about how ze travels from one Clan to another & doesnt consider zimself a Clan cat. Those are all mods. "It's clanblr no-" shut up. Just shut up.

I think a lot of cats put way too much emphasis on the parts of the warrior code that dont matter, and forget the parts that do, like "feed elders and kits first" and "never neglect a kit in pain or danger"... I feel like those are significantly more important than "a warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet," but maybe that's just me.

I feel like we don't talk enough about how SkyClan got chased out of their own territory during a time of crisis rather than all of the Clans trying to make room for everyone...

I mean, seriously. I know it's taught to all SkyClan apprentices, but I've talked to some of my friends from other Clans and they just. Didn't know that. They were never taught that the other Clans allowed SkyClan to be chased out due to territory loss.

🔲 sstep-xoxo-deactivated

:/ im pretty sure the whole thing about skclan being kicked out of their territory is just a conspiracy theory

🔲 sag3-chas3s-squirr3ls-deactivated

Imagine trying to tell a cat that they don't know their own Clan's history 💀

:/ I do not like being stuck on the wrong site.

[stinkysam]

Choi Subong “Thanos” - Just boyfriend.

Warning : Dysphoria

Genre : fluff

Synopsis : “Thanos x ftm reader?” -anon

Reader : male (he/you)

A/N : bold is in English. // reader is taking testosterone and has done top surgery but is not out to his parents. // kinda short ;-;

Thanos knew there was something going on with you. Your hair, clothes, your voice, actions. Sometimes you made him think you were more of a boy than a girl.

But you weren’t close enough for him to worry about it and for you to explain everything, until your friendship deepened, spending more time together.

“T, I’m gonna be serious for a minute or two, and your reaction will really matter for the future of our friendship.” You announced one day.

“Okay ?” He replied with a frown, more confused than anything.

“Because I’m doing some spring cleaning in my friendships and I have something to say.”

He looked with wide eyes, waiting for you to continue. Stop creating so much tension.

“I’m trans.”

“Huh ?” He chuckled, confused. You bit down a nervous smile.

“I’d like you to gender me as a man.” You added. “Stop viewing me as a chick and start using he/him when referring to me.”

“Huh ?”

“Huh ?” You imitated him. “Did I stun the great Thanos ?”

“Fuck you mean you’re not a chick ?! Since when ?”

Cue to a long discussion about how you’ve been feeling for a long time and your visits with a lot of professionals.

It took him a bit of time to use your right set of pronouns. Not because he doesn’t care, but because he constantly had to watch his mouth to not accidentally out you to random people, and he loves to yap. Which happened a couple of times. Luckily they just looked at him weirdly before moving on, thinking he just mixed his words up.

So you had an idea. You told him to use your chosen pronouns no matter the situation you were in, and if someone asked something, you’d reply it’s just a private joke between you two. It worked well, but not that much with your parents.

“He ?”

“Yeah… ?” Thanos replied looking at your mom with a confused expression. Did he say something wrong ?

“Yes, sorry, it’s an inside joke. ” You quickly added with a smile, grabbing Thanos by the back of his neck like you would grab a cat doing something it shouldn’t.

“An inside joke ?” Your mom asked, still not understanding.

“Yeah, she’s just so used to calling me a ‘he’ that she does it naturally now.” You flashed her a smile, hoping she’d bite and leave you alone. “Right Subong ?”

“Uh, yeah…”

“Maybe if you looked less like a man that wouldn’t happen. Did you stop putting the padded push up bras I bought you ? It looks like your boobs completely disappeared.” She approached to put her hands on your chest but you pulled away, taking a step back.

“I’m old enough to buy my own.”

“Put them back on and that man will stop calling you a ‘he’. He’ll easily remember you’re a girl.” She said, walking away.

You blinked slowly, grimacing, lightly squeezing Thanos’ neck. You felt like you were back in school.

“I’m sorry.” Thanos whispered.

“Shut up.”

He’s met a couple trans people here and there, mainly fans who corrected him when he addressed them wrong. He just looked at them confused and moved on. Okay, whatever, next.

“Weird, I met a dude who told me he wasn’t one.” He says in a voice message a few minutes after leaving said fan.

“It means that person is probably trans.” You sent back with a laugh.

“What, like you ?”

“Yeah but the other way around.”

“Can’t he… Mh… She ? Should I say she ? Can’t she donate her dick to you ?”

“Yes, she. And no it doesn’t work that way. And maybe she already got rid of it.”

“What do they do with it ? Once the dick is detached ?”

“How do you think they make dildos ?” You replied laughing before continuing. “No, the dick isn’t detached, it’s just heavily modified so it becomes a vagina. The rest that’s useless is discarded. Into the trash can~”

“Wait- so you can’t give her your boobs either ?”

“Ah, this hurts, T. I got them removed a year ago.” You whined. “Didn’t my mom speak about them in front of you one day, talking about how they disappeared ?”

“It wasn’t because you didn’t put on the bras she gave you ?”

“No ! I had boobs you could see even without bras, come on !”

“I never saw them.”

“You perv.” You laughed. “Stop looking for people’s boobs.”

“No~”

“Anyway. I used to alway put on a binder so I guess you couldn’t see the difference once I got them removed.”

“How was I supposed to know, then !? You tell me nothing !”

“Ah, fucking bastard, now it’s my fault ?! We weren’t big friends back then, why would I tell you ? Huh ?!”

“Because we’re best friends now ! We tell each other when we take a shit, no ? So tell me when you do something.”

You send him a voice message of you just sighing very loudly.

“Okay. I’ll tell you when I get a dick, then.” You added in another message.

“Send me pictures, okay ?”

“Fuck off.” You replied, laughing.

He’s really great and supportive but he makes mistakes by thinking too much sometimes.

“What’s up my girlboyfriend ?” Thanos asked, waving his hands in the air, approaching you.

You slowly looked away from your laptop, turning to him, looking at him in confusion.

“What ?” You asked calmly.

“My girlboyfriend.” He repeated confidently.

You slowly shook your head.

“No.” At his lack of response you continued. “Why the fuck- why would you call me girlboyfriend ?” You leaned closer, trying to understand his thought process.

“Because you were a girl… and now you’re a boy.” He stated, as if it was the most logical thing.

“What ? Why-” You rubbed your face. “Why would you mix past and present ? And I wasn’t a girl, I was still a boy, I just didn’t know it ? Were you really straight before realizing you were actually bisexual ?”

He looked at you then to the sides, thinking while pouting.

“Boyfriend ?” He finally asked, making you chuckle lightly.

“Yeah !”

“Okay.” He nodded, throwing his hands in the air again.

There are times where your mood is at an all time low. Dysphoria kicking your ass as you can’t find what to wear to ease it a bit. It wasn’t your chest the problem, but your overall appearance. Though you had a packer on, you knew it was fake and your brain refused to not think about it.

You’d sometimes refuse to hang out or go on dates because of it. And each time you mentioned why, Thanos quickly rushed to your place, ringing your doorbell constantly till you finally opened him, ready to hype you up.

He sometimes brings a bag of his own clothes so you could wear them. You already buy yours in men’s sections either on the internet or physically but wearing his baggy clothes does help a bit.

He’s not the type to gently hype you, coaxing you into feeling yourself manly enough. He’ll literally yell at you.

“What are you on about ?! Are you some type of dumbass ?!” He’s already yelling as soon as you open the door.

You glared weakly at him, already wanting to kick him out.

“Quickly feel normal again ! You’re a man, so man up !” He strongly patted your arm, nearly making you stumble to the side.

“Hey, you wanna fight ?! Why are you yelling at me like that ?! You come into my house and dare insult me ?! The fucking nerves !”

“I’m not gonna pick you up piece by piece ! Are you crazy ?! You’re a man, what part of you screams the opposite ?!”

He had touched a sore spot.

“So many parts of my body are screaming it ! Are you fucking blind ?! My pussy, my scars, my muscles- my… ” You sighed, tired, letting yourself fall onto the couch with a groan. “Everything.” You added, your arm covering your face. You've had enough.

You loved being able to take testosterone, going to the gym to define your muscles, watching YouTube videos to change your voice, but it wasn’t going fast enough and you wished you didn’t have to do that and more. It was so slow and you’d have to take testosterone all your life, a constant reminder you weren’t a biological man.

He stared at you, disconcerted. Generally you’d yell back at him, arguing back and forth till everything that frustrated you was out the window. But sometimes it didn’t work, your thoughts and anxiety getting the best of you.

Sighing, Thanos approached you, unsure if you wanted space or not. He decided to try anyway, squeezing himself between you and the backrest of the couch, wrapping his arms around you.

“Come on. You’re still a man.”

You hummed, trying to get a hold of yourself. Though you had already cried before him, you didn’t like doing so, feeling too weak.

“You should-”

“I don’t want problem solving.” You quickly said, cutting him off. You already knew what he was gonna say anyway.

He rubbed your back with one hand, the other one pulling your arms away from your face, letting him plant a kiss on your forehead.

You moved closer, as if it was possible, hiding your face in the crook of his neck, his fingers now tapping rhythmically on your back.

“Keep being patient. Your bottom surgery is already planned, anyway.”

“I know.” You replied quietly, sighing. “But it’s so far away.”

“When you go back to Thailand I’ll follow you, okay ? Don’t want you to feel too much at home and never come back to me.”

You smiled weakly, closing your eyes.

“Ah… How will I get rid of you then ?”

“Can’t and won’t.”

[followthebluebell]

Who are the current roster of residents at your work? I know Roomba is, and that there are at least two Persians, but I can't keep them straight in my head. Q was a resident but then got adopted?

My current residents are:

Roomba (bengal - 13-15? years old, blind, female)

VERY LOUD; loves kittens, waffles wildly between loving adult cats or absolutely hating them. Sometimes to the same cat. She adores Maddie the most and will try to cuddle up to her as much as possible but since Maddie has been going into the Impossible Zone (the couch upstairs) lately, Roomba has been cozying up to Pookie.

Has lymphoma but we're trying to make her time comfortable. She's got a severe sensitivity to poultry and fish, so her food has to be beef, venison, lamb, rabbit, pork, or goat. Her favorite is lamb. On her good days, she likes to play fetch with her favorite purple plastic ball or green spring. I don't know why those are her favorites. She just plays with them longer than any of the other plastic balls or springs.

She's usually found in the office/kitchen.

Butterscotch (persian - 3? years old, blind, male; misaligned jaw)

Looks ancient, is actually a young man. He is permanently scrungly. He likes to play with pieces of garbage. He's got plenty of actual cat toys to play with, but he just wants to play with the little plastic wrap that comes off the tops of bottles and such. He's VERY sweet to people; he mostly ignores other cats. If another cat sleeps by him, he's fine. He just doesn't really seek them out.

His jaw is misaligned, which makes his face look even stranger than a typical persian's. We're not sure what happened to it. It may just be a birth defect, it may be a broken jaw that never healed right. It doesn't seem to bother him TOO much, but it does mean his face needs extra cleaning.

He doesn't like any wet food, except for sardines. Otherwise, he likes the cronch. He likes to sleep in exclusively uncomfortable places.

Pookie (british shorthair - 1 year old, female, FIV+)

VERY playful and outgoing. She likes to greet anyone who walks in. People are delighted by her. They think she's the best thing either (they are not wrong). She's cat social, but doesn't really want to play with other cats. She just likes to exist around them.

She's a menace in the office. She's learned that if the phone goes off, someone will sit down at the desk and she can annoy them until they pet her. She knocks things off the desk too and thinks it's a lot of fun to play with and rip up pages in the appointment book.

She's generally found in the office or on the front couch.

Penelope (persian, 2-3? years old, female)

Also outgoing, but much more relaxed. Penelope mostly wants to sit on someone's lap. Her favorite toys are crinkle balls--- the little cellophane ones--- and tunnels. She likes to sit at the edge of a tunnel and bat at feet as people walk past. She also likes pens, especially if someone is using one.

She likes to sit in the office chair. I think it's because she knows someone will sit there eventually and have no choice but to let her sit on their lap, but also she doesn't have very many brain cells, so I'm not sure she can fully conceptualize that sort of plan.

She tends to pick a new Favorite Place every week.

Maddie (persian, 12-13? years old, female)

Winner of the 'Are you alive...?' contest two years running. She's a picky eater and will only eat things that she sees Roomba eating. I'm not sure they recognize the other as 'alive'. Maddie adores people, as long as they aren't trying to brush her. Then she grudgingly tolerates them for a few minutes at a time before deciding to go somewhere else.

She's permanently snotty. She's been tested for many, MANY things to ensure it's not contagious--- the vet's guess is that a fungal infection caused a severe allergic reaction which resulted in nasal polyps. Combined with her very tiny nostrils, she's got some permanent drip going on there. It's... unclear whether or not surgery is a wise option. She's a senior cat, a persian, and already has breathing problems :/ We might just have to wipe her face frequently.

She's not a fan of that either, for the record.

I'm hoping that Penelope and Pookie will go up for adoption one day. There's literally no reason why they could not be adopted and I'd prefer to keep the office pet slots for cats that cannot be rehomed for behavioral or health reasons.

The undertones behind Walter and Jonathan's relationship that you might not know about

I'll be calling attention to traits present in their dynamic that are unknown to most players in the West due to incomplete localization.

Now... where do we begin? Oh, right. In the part after you're done with Naraku and get to spend the holiday with the other two.

This scene is presented in almost the same way in both languages but Jonathan's reaction seems emphasized on a specific word in the Japanese script.

"T...t-t... that's crude, Walter. I would never... such a thing like that to women..."

In either case, if this ended at Jonathan's response, it would be mostly nothing worth commenting on. Jonathan is the Law representative raised by a family that worked in the Monastery so naturally he's gonna behave in a more chaste way, correct?

But then you have Walter's posture becoming uncomfortable followed by immediately changing subjects as if he's already in the know of what Jonathan was anxious about compared to the player (thus Flynn) being rather out of loop about what was going on.

The thing is... the meaning was actually already available for the players, even prior to SMTIV's release! That is, if you accessed the official website and clicked on the interviews with the Japanese voice actors (which included in-character voice clips). All of the translations presented in this post were done by takujilvr

"I'll only tell you this because it's you, all right? Only because it's you! I'm afraid I can't bring myself to like women very much. Being raised in a household with two elder sisters and one younger made me lose any illusions about them I might've had. You're a man, so I feel much more at ease with you."

Certainly, he doesn't seem to specifically refer to anyone in this clip. It could be Flynn or probably anyone else as long as they're a male.

But there are other voice clips aside this one that point towards a more definitive interpretation.

"Enough of that "Ooh, you'll catch cold!" drivel, Jonathan, you sound like a naggy old wife. I can't abide being constricted, this chest must stay bared!"

"S-Stop pulling my hair, Walter! It won't straighten out, I got it from my mother!"

They don't have voice clips directly acknowledging anyone else, leading to the impression that Walter and Jonathan were being more marketed as a duo over their dynamic with the main character.

But the shocking reveal comes with this one:

"I'll only say this if you promise not to tell anyone! Cats, I just love 'em. When I see one outside, I can't help but crouch down and give it some pets! Wait, no. I mean, listen, I can't stand fish. And they can take it off my hands, can't they? That's why I love cats. Right."

A player that reached the part where the party gets hit by Yaso Magatsuhi's scent in Roppongi will thus connect the dots:

How one interprets the twist of this scene might change entirely with the voice clip in mind. It opens the possibility that, differently from many players' assumptions, Jonathan was acting like a feline not because he's secretly a cat lover. But, most likely, due to WALTER liking them. And he would have no way of knowing that unless Walter told him off-screen.

To summarize...

Jonathan is unable to feel attraction for girls and feels more comfortable with guys which would be inevitably an obstacle for his future considering his conservative background

Walter has phobia of fish despite what his family does for trade and has a soft spot for cats specifically because they eat them for him which would be defined as a 'weakness' to his self-reliant image

1 and 2 are each most's intimate secret and they revealed them for each other

"But how much does this add to the main plot?" Even when pushing aside subtleties from this extra material, attentive Megaten veterans would notice that the Law & Chaos representatives from SMTIV have an explicitly close bond compared to most characters of opposing sides in other titles of the mainline series.

[Jonathan was the most visibly affected by their breakup]

This extra material essentially adds more to the range of interpretation regarding their intimacy while also making them more relatable beyond their surface of Law & Chaos pieces.

On this note, moments where they "crack" their own alignments also happen briefly in-game.

They were two boys of the same age that became instant close friends however became unable to conciliate the differences emphasized by their caste system and reach the understanding of what would be the best for everyone.

All of this leads to the player's realization that Jonathan and Walter ultimately didn't perfectly antagonize each other as humans but were "pushed" towards their extreme roles by ulterior forces that would subsequently be further exposed in the sequel.

You’re sitting cross-legged on Eddie’s bed in a t-shirt that smells like him and a pair of boxer-briefs, hair damp from the shower. His guitar buzzes lazily in the corner, leaning against the amp, and his rings clink when he climbs onto the mattress and slouches beside you, warm and sleepy.

“You look good like that,” he mumbles, kissing your shoulder.

You laugh, embarrassed but pleased. “Like what?”

“Like you’re mine.” He says it without hesitation, like it’s a given. He picks at the hem of your shirt, voice turning gentle. “That shirt looks better on you anyway.”

You snort. “It’s yours.”

“Exactly.”

You roll your eyes but let him lean on you, head finding your shoulder again. Eddie is like a big, metalhead cat—restless and soft all at once. And right now, he’s purring.

His fingers trace along your arm, then up toward your chest, and he pauses. His palm lands just over your heart. He doesn’t press down, doesn’t grope—just touches. Like he’s holding something sacred.

“You okay with me touchin’ here?” he asks.

You nod, leaning into him. “Yeah. I trust you.”

Eddie hums and tips his head back to look at you. “You know,” he says, “you’re fuckin’ beautiful.”

Your stomach flips, like it always does when he gets like this—earnest, open, warm in a way that’s impossible to deflect. You never quite know what to say.

“I didn’t always feel that way,” you admit. “Not about myself, I mean.”

Eddie’s smile softens. “No one ever made you feel like you were?”

You shrug, eyes flicking away. “Not really. Not until I started... you know. Transition. And even then, it took a while.”

He reaches out and brushes his knuckles under your jaw. “You’ve always been him, though. Just took the world a minute to catch up.”

You blink fast, surprised by the heat behind your eyes. Eddie sees it but doesn’t make it a big deal—just leans in and kisses your cheek, your nose, then your lips. Soft, slow, reverent.

When he pulls back, his hands rest on your hips like they belong there. “Can I take this off you?” he asks, tugging at the shirt.

Your breath catches. You haven’t done this with him fully before—haven’t let him see the whole you. You’ve made out, sure, and he’s seen you shirtless from behind, but you’ve never let it be intentional.

Still, you nod. “Yeah. You can.”

Eddie’s careful, like he’s unwrapping something precious. The shirt lifts over your head and off, and you sit there bare-chested in front of him. Scars flat against your skin, chest warm with nervous heat. But Eddie looks at you like you’re starlight.

“Holy shit,” he says, stunned.

You freeze.

“No, no—babe—fuck.” He grins and kisses your sternum, then the slope of your chest, slow and worshipful. “You’re fucking gorgeous. Like... I don’t even know how you exist.”

You laugh, a shaky thing, but it spills out anyway. “You’re so dramatic.”

“And you’re so hot.” He kisses lower, just under one of your scars. “Seriously. These? Fuckin’ badass.”

His mouth lingers there a moment. He doesn’t make a production of it—just lets his breath warm the spot like a secret prayer.

You melt.

“Can I—?” He hesitates, one hand sliding down to your thigh, thumb brushing soft circles.

“Yeah,” you whisper. “I want you to.”

Clothes shift. Your briefs come down slowly, his fingers trailing after them. And you’re not used to this—being this exposed, but Eddie treats you like art. Like there’s nothing in the world he’d rather be doing than kissing down your belly, whispering your name like it’s a spell.

“Tell me if anything feels off, okay?” he murmurs. “You’re running the show.”

You nod, already breathless.

What follows is soft. Gentle. His hands and mouth moving over you like he’s learning a language he’s already fluent in. No rush. No pressure. Just the two of you—laughing a little when your knees bump, gasping when he sucks a mark into your inner thigh, shivering when he calls you handsome.

When he finally touches you, it’s slow and reverent. You gasp, and his name falls from your lips like a promise. You let him guide you back against the pillows, his hair brushing your stomach as he kisses and strokes you, keeping his eyes on your face.

And when you come, it’s with his name in your mouth and his hand holding yours.

After, he tucks the blanket around you both and curls against your chest, resting his cheek over your scars. He sighs like he’s home.

You card your fingers through his messy curls, chest still fluttering with aftershocks and something deeper—something warm.

“I like being seen by you,” you whisper.

Eddie smiles against your skin. “I never not see you.”

And he means it. Every word.

[g0rebaited]

first ever DoL ocs / pcs yap post... there are so many words full of my love for them... aauhhhhggg.. im very new to posting on tumblr this is scaryyy..

anyway here's the two of them !

(i didn't even realize they were both rocking the blue top + green bottoms until making this post omg.. couple goals fr)

alright so. Eidy.

Eidy is a girl w the cat tf, but also a crossdresser for the fun of it, he goes by any pronouns but generally is viewed as a guy (as intended) and ends up hearing he/him more than anything

Eidy does NOT live in the orphanage, has never even seen Bailey before, but does go to school. sometimes. most of the time he's in the moor, in alleyways or in the forest, looking for stuff to sell at the museum. (he knows abt the landfill and the potential goldmine there, but he's bad at talking himself out of situations so he just avoids it..)

if there is one thing Eidy is good at it's running away from situations. he can't talk himself out of anything but you bet he can out-run most people. and if he can't out-run them he can probably find something to climb up on.

he makes himself scarce SO quickly. avoids any and all confrontation if possible.

but that also makes it so that he doesn't really Know anyone, and nobody really knows him. sure, people have seen him around town in the alleys and at the museum, but Eidy doesn't really make contact with people. the only people he's made contact with are Winter (history teacher/museum), Gwylan (forest shopkeeper), Great Hawk (only briefly a few times) and Nasha (the other pc / oc)

Eidy has no friends fr

he's rlly into history and historical artifacts !! and that means hes also drawn to the lake. bc of the rumors that go around yk

but he does not like swimming at all so he doesn't know whether the rumors surrounding it are true or not…

he's also just very hairy. but all dol mods seem to be afraid of body hair. not that you'd be able to see it bc he's covered from head to toe BUT STILLL it's an important detail </3 !!!!!!

Nasha !!!

her lore is a lot more complicated than Eidy's...

Eidy's lore is basically just "catgirl moves to DoLtown and crossdresses. likes history. doesn't interact w ppl much" and then Nasha comes in with identity theft, coercion, human experimentation, etc etc

Nasha is the result of human experimentation done by Harper and their associates at the asylum; Nasha used to be just some very unfortunate dude who had his brain turned to mush by Dr Harper, this resulted in Harper being able to "create" a new person, which was Nasha as we know her now

Harper mostly left Nasha alone, though, as she was more of a side-project 😭 (after it was clear she'd become a success) but that allowed her to become her own person rather than Just Harper's Creation

Harper DID make sure to encourage Nasha to dress up and dye her hair n use makeup and all that, because the guy that 'owned' the body before is literally gone, that dude straight up doesn't exist anymore and now Nasha is piloting his body

so the identity theft was accidental (on Nasha's part), the coercion is entirely on purpose bc Nasha 'gets' subjects for Harper to experiment on, and the human experimentation is what she's a result of + smth she participates in by proxy

i would not say Nasha is a trans woman though, bc she never had the experience of being perceived as male, despite being in a male body

she doesn't rlly gaf tho, Harper gives her estrogen and money in exchange for a job well done, and furthermore she's free to do as she wants

(the estrogen's cause she does wanna look more feminine !! but that's an aesthetic preference rather than an actual gender thing

and i know the difference because i transed my gender 🔥🔥🔥)

she made friends with Eidy when he ended up in an alley near a house party, where she approached him bc she assumed he was 'like her' (he isn't)

they hit it off quite well, though ! Eidy knew things Nasha was interested in, and Nasha was just incredibly gorgeous to Eidy

Nasha DOES actually go to school, unlike Eidy who doesn't pull up most of the time. Nasha doesn't go to school on fridays though (her work day)

it does get her in trouble (bc of the missed tests) and so she usually has to stay extra long on mondays or thursdays

Characterization Cheat Sheet: Jerran Thorne

Following @seizethemage-main and @booksncatsworld ‘s lead. This is meant to only be a guide, not a rule, so don’t feel pressured to follow this to a T!

General:

Full name: Jerran Thorne

Gender: Cis Male

Pronouns: He/Him

Race: City Elf

Age: 20

Nationality: Northern Thedas (Doesn't claim a country since he's traveled all over)

Faction: Grey Wardens

Skills: Archery, Sword fighting, whittling small figurines, being a pain.

Languages: Common/Trade, Elven (learned in childhood, a bit rusty).

______

Body Language/Physicality

General Behavior:  Jerran is outgoing, fun-loving, and full of energy. Basically channel your inner Sokka from Avatar: the Last Airbender.  He often plays up the “dumbass” role to keep people at a distance and throw them off balance, but he observes more than you would think. A lot of the pushing buttons is deliberate to either make a point, or test someone so that he can make a judgement call. 

He votes with his feet. If he thinks the idea is stupid or doesn't respect you, he just leaves.

With Friends: Generally Golden Retriever puppy or cat on zoomies. He has no problem running up to friends and flinging an arm over their shoulder if they’re comfortable with it. With others who need a less-energetic approach, he’ll try to tailor it to their preferences. 

Flirting: Absolutely awkward. Scratching the back of his head, shifting his weight, tongue-tied. “Girls are hard to talk to” attitude. 

With an Established Romantic Partner: (Eleanor Ingellvar**) His demeanor relaxes and his eyes soften. He doesn’t feel like he needs to play a role, so everything is genuine. Softer voice, bigger grins. Acts protective if his partner is on the smaller side. He wants to try hard to please his partner, so he’ll try to learn everything that she likes, even if he’s terrible at it. 

In Combat: His eyes sharpen and he becomes more focused on his objective. His movements become more deliberate. He makes split-second decisions and acts decisively. If he sees what he thinks is a better opinion, he will disregard orders and do it instead. He’s actually quite capable at combat, but is more comfortable using his bow and arrows and grenades. He was often sent out as a scout in the mercenary band and in his previous Grey Warden squad.

He fights dirty in battle-- he will absolutely target an enemy's weakest points, stab them in the back, or slit their throat if it means he and his team will come home.

He is also cross-dominant, meaning that he switches sides depending on the task. His right side is reserved for fine motor skills (writing, picking things up, eating, whittling) while his left side does the more physical aspects (shooting his arrows, sword fighting, kicking, throwing). This often gives him an advantage because most enemies don’t expect him to be left-handed. He can switch to his right side in combat, but it’s not pretty.

_________

Dialogue/Speaking

Voice: His voice is in the tenor range (think Jeremy Jordan, most of the Disney Aladdin actors, or Jeff Berg - Rook’s American Male option, medium).  A casual, playful tone that can be snarky. 

General: His vocabulary tends to be simpler, with maybe an out-of-place phrase that he heard someplace and is repeating. He stumbles over larger words, often mispronouncing them. He goes straight to the point, no dancing around the subject. He tends to do really bad puns as well. Uses fillers like, "Uh... um...."

With Friends: His speech will be sprinkled with swearing and creative euphemisms for the Maker’s various body parts. 

Superiors/Leaders: He’ll be slightly more professional than with friends if he respects you.

Romance: He uses a more gentle and genuine tone; he’s not playing the dumbass role with his partner. There may be casual swearing, but it’s less prominent. He’s earnest, wanting to try hard to please his partner.

Humor: Channel your inner Sokka: the more serious the situation, the more blasé he gets. It’s when he drops the humor that it’s an Oh Shit moment.  

Anger: He drops the act and becomes aggressive. He flattens his tone and clips his words. The sentences are shorter and harder with no banter. When he gets to this point, he is going to burn bridges and raze the land. 

If he doesn’t respect someone, he doesn’t bother to pretend to hide it. He deliberately mispronounces the gods’ names as an insult; he won’t waste the brainpower to remember them properly. 

Cursing: Swears in casual speaking, often with just a single “Fuck.”  “Shit, goddamn” are also favorites. He also casually uses the Maker and Andraste’s name in vain: “Andraste’s tits,” “Maker’s balls,” “Maker’s little toe.” 

Combat: He doesn’t have time to be funny; it’s all clipped words and “get the job done” attitude. Much like Anger, but without the “burning the land” aspect.

[BTS] SUGA | Agust D 'D-DAY' 활동기 비하인드 대공개!

[BTS] SUGA | Agust D ‘D-DAY’ Activity Period Behind-the-Scenes Release!

아-하!

Hi-A!

(T/N: Stands for ‘Hi ARMY’, which is how Bangbell always starts these posts.)

꒰⸝⸝•ᴗ•⸝⸝꒱੭⁾⁾

방림이가 너무 오랜만에 왔죠? (;´・`)> 오랜만에 온 만큼 어마 무시한 포스트 주인공을 데리고 왔는데요?! 오늘의 주인공은 바로바로바로바로~~~ (모두 다 알고 있지만) SUGA | Agust D의 솔로 앨범 활동기 비하인드!

It’s been a while since Bangbell was here, right? (;´・`)>

But since it’s been a while, I’ve brought an incredible star for this post?! And today’s star is is is is is~~~ (You all already know but) The behind-the-scenes for SUGA | Agust D ’s solo album activity period!

포스트를 시작하기에 앞서 퀴즈 나갑니다 민슈가의 매력 포인트는 무엇일까요? 1. 귀여움 2. 멋있음 3. 섹시함 4. 잘생김 5. 말랑함 정답은요?

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 아무래도 당모. 당연히 모두 다. 슈가의 귀여움, 멋있음, 섹시함, 잘생김, 말랑함을 다 모아 포스트에 가-득 담아왔으니 바로 시작하시죠!

Before we start this post, there’s a quiz

What’s Min Suga’s most charming feature?

His cuteness

His coolness

His sexiness

His handsomeness

His squishiness

The answer?

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 No matter what you pick AOTA. All Of The Above.

I’ve gathered together all of Suga’s cuteness, coolness, sexiness, handsomeness, and squishiness and have put it aaall in this post so let’s begin!

말랑 포근 남친 + 예민 존잘 수트 남신 두 가지 콘셉트를 전부 볼 수 있었던 ‘사람 Pt.2 (feat. 아이유)’ MV 비하인드로 가볍게 시작해 볼까요?

A soft and cozy boyfriend + A sharp, handsome, suit-wearing god Shall we start with the behind-the-scenes for the ‘People Pt.2 (feat. IU)’ MV where you can see both of these concepts?

*Ꙩꙻ₀Ꙩꙻ)！ 조그만 곳에 들어가는 걸 좋아하고 신 걸 못 먹는 걸 보니 민윤기는 고양이가 확실합니다(?) MV에서는 그렇게 날티나던 OPPA였는데 현장에선 이렇게 귀여운 게 말이 돼?! ㄴ외않되

*Ꙩꙻ₀Ꙩꙻ)！ He likes going into small places and he can’t eat sour things so I’m positive that Min Yoongi is a cat(?)

In the MV he appeared like such a playboy OPPA* But on set he’s so cute. Does that even make sense?! ㄴWhy not?

(T/N: ‘Oppa’ is the Korean word women use to refer to a man who is older than them. Female fans also use this term affectionately for male celebrities.)

5252~ 귀여운 ‘해금’ MV 속 애옹이를 보느라 처연미 넘치는 ‘AMYGDALA’ MV 비하인드도 잊으면 안된다구 항상 미남이지만 본인피셜 “이때 예뻤네~!” 말이 나오게 만드는 ‘AMYGDALA’ MV 속에서는 더더욱 어머 미남.. ⸝⸝• ̫•⸝⸝

Hey hey*~ Just because you saw a cute kitty in the ‘Haegeum’ MV doesn’t mean you can forget about the ‘AMYGDALA’ MV that’s full of tragic beauty

(T/N: The number 5252 is pronounced “oh ee oh ee / 오이오이” in Korean, which sounds a lot like the greeting “Hey / eo ee, 어이” that you would shout at someone.)

He’s always been a handsome man but in the ‘AMYGDALA’ MV even he ended up saying “Wow, I looked so pretty then~!” Oh my what a handsome man.. ⸝⸝• ̫•⸝⸝

깜짝 사연 모집과 함께 오랜만에 돌아와서 아미들을 놀라게 했는데 보이는 라디오를 통해 더 물오른 미모로 더더더 놀라게 했던 꿀에펨부터 슙디… 금방 돌아온다고 했으니까 기다릴게… 기다린다! 우리… 한 발자국도 안 움직인다! 슙디 돌아올 때까지 숨참기 시작

Starting with Kkul FM which came back after a long time along with a surprise story submission form and really caught ARMYs off guard and surprised them even more with his beautiful looks through a video radio show

DJ Syub*… you said you’ll be back soon so we’ll wait… we’ll wait! We… won’t even move a single step! Starting now we’re holding our breath until DJ Syub returns

(T/N: The alias Suga uses when he hosts his radio show Kkul FM.)

있지도 않은 남사친 기억 조작하게 만들면서 많은 아미들 심장 떨리게 만들었던 팔레트

Palette, which made everyone think of a guy friend that they don’t even have and made so many ARMYs’ hearts flutter

미니미즈가 함께 출연한 핑계고에서 본 뜻밖의 귤디 (���•ᴗ•◍)❤

갑작스런 퀴즈. 슈가는 핑계��에서 귤을 몇 개를 먹었을까요? 정답은 아미가 알려줄 거야…

Tangerine D was unexpectedly seen on Just an Excuse which the Minimis* appeared on together (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤

(T/N: A nickname for Suga and Jimin.)

Pop quiz. How many tangerines did Suga eat on Just an Excuse? ARMYs will let you know the answer…

주인장 아니고 게스트로 나와서 으른 섹시 + 잔망 귀여움 다 보여줬던 슈취타 아니고 알취타도 있구요!

He appeared as a guest instead of the host and showed off menacing sexiness + adorableness And it wasn’t Suchwita, it was Rchwita*!

(T/N: The name of Suga’s talk show ‘Suchwita’ changed to ‘Rchwita’ when RM hosted for one episode.)

of the 아미 for the 아미 by the 아미 오로지 아미만을 생각하면서 준비한 로드 투 아미 솔직히 정식으로 귀미챌 한 번 더 해줘야 된다고 생각합니다. (진지)

of the ARMY for the ARMY by the ARMY He prepared Road to ARMY while only thinking of ARMY

If I’m being honest, I think he needs to do the SICC* again. (I’m serious)

(T/N: Stands for “Sorry I’m Cute Challenge,” which was a trend many idols did during fanmeets.)

해외에 나가서도 아미들이랑 이야기 나누고 싶다고 현지 시간으로 이른 아침 일찍부터 찾아와 조곤조곤 많은 이야기 나누고 간 발매 라이브에

Even when he went overseas he said he wanted to talk to ARMYs So he got up in the early hours local time And, very quietly, talked a lot during his album release live

빽빽한 미국 스케줄 사이에 깜짝 무대 선물해 준 팰런쇼

In between his packed schedule in the U.S. He gifted us with a surprise performance on the Fallon Show

두 가지 매력의 데이트룩도 차려입고 아미들과 영화관 데이트했던 무비 나잇까지..!

He donned two date outfits with two different charms and went on a movie date with ARMYs for Movie Night..!

끝인 줄 알았지?! 최고의 선물 ‘해금’ 안무 영상은 또 얼마나 열심히 준비했게요

You thought this was the end right?!

How hard must he have prepared for the ‘Haegeum’ dance practice video, which was the best gift ever

해금 추는 민윤기… 다시 볼 수 있기 기원 정권 찌르기 1일차… 콘서트 준비에 바빴을 텐데 아미들 심심하지 말라고 언제 다 준비해놓고 짜잔- 한 상 차려놓은 민윤기 안 사랑하는 법 나는 몰라 진짜 몰라 ( ˃̣̣̥ω˂̣̣̥ )

Min Yoongi dancing to Haegeum… This is day 1 of pestering the higher ups to let me see that again…

He must have been so busy preparing for his concerts But just so ARMYs wouldn’t be bored Min Yoongi prepared everything at some point and ta da- He prepared an entire feast Seriously I don’t even know how I’m not supposed to love him ( ˃̣̣̥ω˂̣̣̥ )

여기에 콘서트는 또 얼마나 기깔나게 준비했다구욧!? 콘서트 준비 과정도 함께 만나볼까요? ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

Just how much did he say he prepared here for the concert!? Shall we go check out the concert preparation process? ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

고양이도 콘서트 포스터 촬영을 할 수 있는 건가요? 슈가는 없고 앙큼 고영 밖에 없는데요?

Can cats also take photos for concert posters? There’s no Suga here just a devious kitty?

비상비상!!! 1 아미 1 애옹이 보급 시급 이과 아미들 뭐 하는데!! 민윤기 복제 안 하고 뭐 하는데!! (땡깡)

Emergency emergency!!! 1 ARMY 1 kitty are urgently needed ARMYs who studied science, what are you doing!! Why haven’t you cloned Min Yoongi yet!! (Throwing a tantrum)

✧/ᐠ-ꞈ-ᐟ| 이 이모티콘 그 잡채…

✧/ᐠ-ꞈ-ᐟ| He’s the epitome of this emoticon…

의미 있는 자신감으로 Full 라이브 밴드 콘서트를 준비한 슈가… 아미들 마음을 조사버릴 민윤기 책임져.. 난 365일 중에 613일 정도는 민윤기 생각만 한다고 그리고 대망의 콘.서.트. 두둥!

Full of meaningful confidence Suga prepared a full live-band concert…

Min Yoongi, who’s destroying ARMYs’ hearts Take responsibility.. I think of only Min Yoongi 613 days out of 365 days

And now the long-awaited con.cert.

Drum roll!

크으으으으으으 My rap star… My rockstar… My king… 슈가는 왕이에요…

Woooooooooow My rap star… My rockstar… My king… Suga is the king…

이렇게 길고 알찼던 활동만큼 길고도 알찼던 활동기 포스트가 끝이 났습니다! 뭐 잊은 거 없냐구요? 乁(ᴗ ͜ʖ ᴗ)ㄏ 글~쎄요?? 넝담이고~

For as long and packed as this activity period was this long and packed acitivity period post is coming to an end!

You’re saying I forgot something?

乁(ᴗ ͜ʖ ᴗ)ㄏ I~don’t know??

Just a joke~

이 포스트를 빌려 아미에게 방림이 전할게 음음음음 다행히도 보여줄 사진은 여태 많이 남았네

Bangbell will take this post as a chance to tell ARMY Mm mm mm mm Thankfully there are still many pictures I have yet to show you*

(T/N: A reference to Suga’s verse in ‘Life Goes On.’)

포스트에 빠질 수 없는 셀카! 이쁜 셀카 이렇게 잔뜩 모아왔다구요! <(=^･^=)> 다양한 콘텐츠와 공연으로 아미들을 즐겁게 해준 슈가 & Agust D & 윤기에게 많은 박수 부탁드립니다~!!! (와아아아~~)

The selfies that we can’t leave out of this post! I’ve gathered all of these pretty selfies! <(=^･^=)>

Girls/Girls/Boys (ao3) - orphan_account steve/bucky T, 3k

Summary: All of Steve Rogers's life he never felt like he fit in his skin. It wasn't because he was small and frail, he didn't mind too much about that.

seasons change (but people don’t) (ao3) - ftmsteverogers steve/bucky E, 2k

Summary: “If there’s a girl I’m meant to be mourning, I want to know,” Bucky persists, as though Steve hasn’t had a close brush with asphyxiation right before his eyes. His foot twitches against Steve’s under the table.

“There wasn’t a girl,” Steve coughs. “Why…?”

Bucky’s gaze is sharp and discerning as his eyes flick back and forth between Steve’s.

“There was,” he says, right hand gripping the counter behind him in a white-knuckled grasp. “A girl. A small blonde girl.”

Something About Dancing (ao3) - AtemusLotus steve/sam T, 1k

Summary: Stephanie Rogers just moved from Brooklyn to D.C. and has met the man of her dreams in a local cop Sam Wilson.

Steve Rogers Is Not a Woman (ao3) - orphan_account T, 10k

Summary: Steve Rogers was not a woman, no matter what anybody else said, or what his body looked like. (Trans-man Steve.)

Steve's Little Secret (ao3) - TheBananasaurus steve/bucky E, 16k

Summary: Despite growing up together, and even sharing an experimental first-kiss as young boys, Steve and Bucky kept a few things - like their mutual feelings - from each other. There were just certain things not acceptable, what with the time period, and their Irish-Catholic upbringing.

Steve, however... has a little secret that really isn't all that little. As if it weren't enough being skinny as a rail and frail as a leaf in autumn, he's also what he considers a freak of nature. How could he possibly ever tell his best friend something like that?

Sugar and Spice (ao3) - blakefancier steve/bucky E, 3k

Summary: It started with a box of women’s clothing that the last occupants of their apartment had left behind. Bucky remembered picking up a pair of panties and throwing them at Steve and saying, “Go on, Rogers, these look about your size.”

That’s My Man (ao3) - ACometAppears steve/bucky M, 3k

Summary: In 1941, Steve begs Bucky to help him get fighting fit so he can enlist.

In 2015, Steve orders something from the Avengers R&D department that Natasha delivers to him.

Think About It (ao3) - i_buchanan steve/bucky E, 7k

Summary: The idea of hurting Bucky almost felt mean at this point. He supposed that under normal circumstances that wouldn’t be much of a problem, but the two of them had never experienced normal circumstances in their entire lives.

Or, Steve is the biggest softy who still wants to push his boyfriend around a little bit

White Noise of Love (ao3) - BurdenedWithPointlessPurpose steve/thor T, 4k

Summary: Learning to focus on himself, Steve struggles with it sometimes. One time specifically so far which involves an older blond graduate hell bent on pursuing him. Apparently, nothing matters to Thor, as long as he is himself. An odd concept to understand as he focuses on the concept of love, until he finally realizes they together they can be the same thing.

First a quick note, from here on, fem-presenting Ghouls are referred to as Ghulehs rather than Ghoulettes. But I come to you with more lore that @the-moon-in-the-gutter and I cooked up.

On Multi Ghouls, Hybrids, Summonigs, and the Pit, pt. 2

I explained last time that Multi Ghouls are a combination of Quint and any other (one or more) Elements. The Ghost Project has included six so far:

Cowbell: Quint/Earth

Special: Quint/Fire

Swiss: All Elements

Sunny: Air/Fire/Quint

Aurora: Quint/Air

Tempest: Air/Quint/Water

Hybrid Ghouls are then a blend of any Elements that don't include Quint, such as the Old Magick Earth/Air Ghouls in the Pit, and Dew, who is Water/Fire. Sometimes Hybrids will present as one Element more strongly, and can undergo a ritual to change that presentation, such as what happened to Dew.

Other times, such as with Sunny, an Element will essentially be "recessive" and seem to not factor into the Ghoul's presentation at all. Sunny's Quintessence is recessive, but manifests in her Appalachian folk practices (as opposed to other Quint Magicks being more energy-based), and also in the fact that she is transfem:

In human Elemental associations, Water and Earth are feminine, and Air and Fire are masculine. With Ghouls, that's a little flipped; the band Earth Ghouls have all been masc, and except for Mist, Water has been too. In this lore, Air is Ghuleh-heavy, especially when we include Rory and Tempest. This is another flip from human associations, the same way the directional associations for Earth and Quint are flipped. This also renders Quint on the masc end of the spectrum. And since Ghouls (gn) are matriarchal, the feminine Elements are more dominant. So Sunny, being Air and Fire with recessive Quint, is transfem.

This does beg the question of Fire Ghouls. Why have all three of them been masc, and why have we only seen three? There are two main reasons for this. One, especially early in the Ghost Project's history, the human perception was that rock/metal was a male-dominated/exclusive genre, and so to have any hope of success, the band had to be comprised entirely of men. It was Terzo, already a rebel among the Clergy (in no small part due to his barely-concealed relationship with Omega) and afforded leeway after his Grammy win, who dared to experiment and allowed the summoning of a Ghuleh (Mist, honored as the First) to stand (and after all, Terzo was quite adamant about celebrating the female orgasm). He also successfully summoned the first Multi Ghoul, the beloved Cowbell.

The second reason has to do with living conditions in the Pit and Fire Ghoul nature. Fire Ghouls are particularly suseptible to Pride and Vanity, and this usually manifests Topside as very particular hair care routines. They can be likened to cats, with constant grooming, their glory comparable to lion manes. However, in the territorial disputes, the Fire Ghouls established themselves in deserts, which are not the most hospitable for cat-like entities. In short, life is hard for Fire Ghouls, and even if their Element predisposes their population to skew more fem, being matriarchal means they are not going to give up their Ghulehs easily and leave their packs vulnerable (the other Elements are far more naturally suited to their environments, especially Water Ghouls, as water is life, hence their prevalence in the Project). As such, masc Fire Ghouls have been the only successful summonings (though looking at Ifrit's tits and Dew's beauty, one would be forgiven for questioning that).

A final facet to this, is the misconception that the Pit is the fiery Christian Hell. Fire Ghouls in particular are disinterested in furthering this lie perpetuated by followers of the Nemesis. If too many of them live Topside, humans might well get the wrong idea, reinforcing the stereotype of red-skinned devils with horns and pitchforks, like children's Halloween costumes.

But even with this talk of dominant/recessive Elements, and some being predisposed to fem or masc presentations, all the Elements are inherently unpredictable. Floods, wildfires, windstorms, earthquakes, are all destructive. And for the Quints, space is largely uninhabitable, and in this lore specifically, snowstorms and avalanches are the associated wild cards. So all Element combinations are similarly unpredictable, it's always a crapshoot without too much rhyme or reason, much like human genetics can also combine for unexpected results.

Most often, when a Ghoul is summoned, the summoner has a specific Element in mind, to fulfill a role in the Ministry or the Ghost Project itself. Bell was a bit of experimentation by Terzo. He had "Earth-ish" in mind during the summoning, and got Bell. And then for Copia, needing backup singers was a whole new requirement, so Swiss being every Element means he can fulfill any role, and Sunny and Rory were summond with similar intentions. Tempest is Vero's first and so far only summon, needing to not only add a vocalist, but "shuffle" the Ghulehs to account for Cumulus' retirement from touring (with the new Ghoul Ministry establishing itself, and her being Queen of the Pack, she felt a responsibility to stay behind and keep a closer eye on things at home), and so Tempest answered his call; it wasn't initially clear what role she would take up, and so an Air-forward Multi was the best, most logical choice.

Handyman and Clarance The Clayman Side Story

Title: Early Introductions

(TW: Mentions of blood. Misgendering.)

Set 2 years before the Canon Story

Handyman slowly dragged the large crate along the floor, attempting to ignore the awful scratching it made. Ugh…she hated that sound. They let out a small huff before attempting to clear out their throat. She dragged the crate over to the elevator then allowed for it to take her down to the lower floors. She been hungry for a while. That giant purple cat is still trying to see if she can eat solid food…ugh…maybe when she gets down here, she can ask a different scientist to give her something more…liquidy. Maybe that Hero toy but…she doesn’t really talk to her all that much. She’d try Hixel but she doubt he cares. Last time they met, he poured a bucket of cold water on her to see if her feathers were water proof. Handyman tucked her wings behind their back at that memory, not wanting anything to get caught on them. It felt like a cruel mixture of being tickled and having a limb torn off whenever something tugged on their wings…not to mention, they’re sure they’re gonna get paralyzed from the torso and up if those wings get snatched too hard.

When the elevator finally stopped, they threw the crate out of the elevator and stepped off before walking down the experiment halls. It smelt like blood…and she could see many other experiments in their cells, whether they chose to be there or not. The pink raptor’s cell is still empty. Hm…she closed her eyes as they continued walking. It was bright. Too bright..unfortunately due to this, They suddenly bumped into someone.

Handyman almost fell back but the toy- well…experiment who they had bumped into, managed to catch their arm just before they hit the ground. Handyman blinked in confusion then looked up at the other experiment. A..long clay toy. He looked down at Handyman with a formal yet concerned and worried expression. Does he have eyes or are THOSE his eyes..?

Clarance: “🟢I’m sorry!🟢 - 🔷I didn’t mean to bump into you…🔷 - 🟪Are you alright, sir?🟪”

Handyman blinked before “glaring”. “Sir?” Wow…okay. Guess they can’t exactly get angry at that though..when you’re forced to look like a mannequin whose name is LITERALLY handyMAN…people are bound to assume you’re a male. Handyman HAS noted that Stacey seems to have the same issue with people assuming that he’s a female though he seems to have reasonably more extreme reactions to it than they do. Handyman slowly fixed her posture before attempting to take their arm back. Clarance took note of this experiment’s appearance. It was…familiar…he felt a sense of Deja Vu as he looked at them but he just…couldn’t…quite place his finger on it..

Clarance: “🟪Well…that crate back there looks rather heavy.🟪 - 🔷You’re…quite literally dragging it with a string attached to your hand…🔷”

Handyman turned and looked at their hand. Oh- it was….all the way across the hall, slowly dragging the crate along with them still. That’s…embarassing Handyman turned back to Clarance and nodded before giving a thumbs up in an attempt to express that they were fine and didn’t need any help. Clarance rose a brow..seeming to take note in something else.

Clarance: “🟢..Can you not speak?🟢”

Handyman looked to the side before looking back up at Clarance. She shook her head. Well…she COULD speak..but last time she tried to, she coughed up blood and they just…overall do NOT like the sound of their own voice. It was hoarse, incoherent. And it scared people sometimes. So they don’t try.

Clarance: “🟪Ah…I see. My apologies.🟪 - 🔷Well…if you ever need a buddy to help you out, you can always call for me! My name is Clarance. And you?🔷”

Handyman blinked then looked back at their hand again. Do they REALLY need to speak to let him know what their name is..? She didn’t want to. She gestured to his arm to which Clarance, confused but intrigued, allowed for them to see. Handyman pulled it closer then smudged the clay around, writing their name. It was…pretty uncomfortable but Clarance didn’t complain. He already learned his lesson about lashing out at random experiments and toys… Once done, Clarance took his arm back, slowly reading it.

Clarance: “🟪ah…Handyman.🟪 🔷Well, you do seem very handy!🔷 - 🟪I’ll be seeing you later then, I suppose. I…have to go. Goodbye!🟪”

Handyman watched as Clarance then ran away, he looked pretty funny when he ran on two legs…his body was clearly too long for him to run properly. Handyman stood there before finally hearing the sound stop. They looked back at the crate. Ah, their hand is back to their wrist now. Good. She removed her hand and got behind the crate instead, slowly pushing it along. Huh. Clarance…Hes pretty nice.

[neonartistycauseidk]

Sooooo….. tell me about this rtc x catcf au of urs…. 😈😈😈😈

HOOOOOOOOGHH HUHUUUHUHHU!!! You’re asking for it!!!!

Okay, so, I’ve been thinking about this concept for the past couple months or so, and I’ve just finally settled on the roles (at least for the kids, Karnak is another thing in and of itself)…

Let’s go in order of song for the kids (in terms of roles):

Ocean O’Connell Rosenberg: Miranda Mary Piker

Noel Gruber: Violet Beauregarde

Mischa Bachinski: Mike Teavee

Ricky Potts: Charlie Bucket

Jane Doe: Veruca Salt

Constance Blackwood: Augustus Gloop

OKAY I’VE GOT SOME EXPLAINING TO DO…

Miranda Mary Piker is one of Dahl’s scrapped characters for the original “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” book and was originally intended to be the daughter of a school master who HATED the idea of holidays/breaks from school/work and wanted to straight up ban them. In the story, she “died” after ending up inside (I believe it was referred to as) “spotty-powder machine” and, assumably, turned into spotty powder. Coming out of the factory, Miranda had red/orange spots on her face…and even in some versions…began to laugh uncontrollably as beforehand, she was a very “no-funny business” girl.

That aside, in my headcannons for her, Miranda was heavily pressured by her parents to be “a winner” and “the best of the best.” This kind of mentality sticks with Miranda and is tough to break out of. With that being said, what role fits our little over-achiever better than Ocean O’Connell Rosenberg?

Now onto Violet…Idk…it just…sorta made sense to me? If I included Marvin Prune (another of Dahl’s scrapped characters) he’s likely fill this role—-but since he’s not, Violet was the next best option. It’s half because I headcannon her as a lesbian and half because I think she and Miranda would have a rivalry with one another (like Ocean and Noel), mainly because of their strict parents who force them into reaching the “highest heights possible” in life. Also, since she’d be a female Noel…instead of Monique being her alter-ego, instead it’d be filled by “Jean Gibeau”…a male version of Monique. (She’d also change into more masculine clothing for her song).

Okay, I think this next one shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise…I mean…“The angriest boy in town”? Who do we know who fits that to a ‘T’? Well, Mike, of course! There’s also, of course all of his dialogue revolving around his phone and social media so…I mean…yeah. I get why people would cast him as Ricky (due to him being imaginative/a literal genius) but…idk, this just makes more sense to me.

Next, Charlie…Your ideas for him as Constance work VERY well…however, hear me out on this one! Hear me out! So, what do we know about Charlie? He aspires to be an inventor/chocolatier just like Wonka and is INCREDIBLY imaginative…Now, what was Ricky’s title again? “The most imaginative boy in town”…LISTEN…I MEAN…ITS LITERALLY IN THE NAME. Many people also headcannon that Charlie’s a genius, like Wonka, so—-for me, at least, it’s not too much of a stretch for him to say all of those “groundbreaking/intelligent” lines. Also, just as a note, “Space Age Bachelor Man” would be re-written to better fit his character since…uh…the cat-love stuff isn’t really…Charlie’s forte, lets say. (I feel like the name should be changed to “Space Age Candyman”, thoughts? And yes, he’s still in space…Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator exists after all).

Now…Veruca. Listen, even though I think it’d make sense to have Miranda as Jane (due to her LITERALLY being a scrapped character, thus limiting who knows her story and name) BUT…In this universe, Veruca being Jane almost makes sense. See, many people headcannon that Jane/Penny’s parents were never really there for her, per-say, and who do we also know aren’t really there for their kid? The Salts. Sure, they spoil her…but spoiling isn’t love. If anything…it turns people into monsters. But in this au, Veruca doesn’t turn into an angry, fear-mongering little rich girl…in fact, it actually leads her to become lonely and feel she isn’t loved by anyone…So, naturally, at St. Cassains (lets just say the story takes place in Uranium, still) Veruca is outcasted and seen as “the weird girl” who comes from that really rich family that nobody really knows too much about other than their famous nut business. Also, can’t leave this out…in the broadway version (referencing “Veruca’s Nutcracker Sweet”) she is LITERALLY TORN APART LIMB FROM LIMB. That includes, of course…her head.

Finally, Augustus. Yes, again, Charlie and Constance makes sense…however, something about Augustus and Constance just…fits for me. In WWATCF specifically, there isn’t a lot of evidence leading to Augustus being a jerk or even a “rotten kid” despite his parents kinda just…giving him more food to eat and him being a foodie. In fact, I’d argue any bad behaviors of Augustus are just endorsed by his parents and never addressed because…well, they caused it. (The same argument could be made for literally any of the other kids and their parents…but I digress). Anyway, in this au, Augustus never had these types of problems with his parents (or unhealthy relationships with food)…and I think that without all of that? Augustus would be a very good kid. Not a Charlie, per-say…but a good kid with a big heart. And because of that? The title of “nicest girl (or rather boy) in town” works quite nicely. It’s the only thing he’s really known for, really. His kindness…and…well…thats about it. Oh, except for the fact that his parents own the best bakery in town, of course! (Yes, the butcher shop is changed to the bakery in this…AND IT STILL FITS). Also, also…I headcannon that Augustus and Miranda would eventually end up as close friends…perhaps even lovers (blackrose, anyone?) in the future…so, in this world…bestie Augustus and Miranda just works.

So uh…that’s my casting! For the kids, anyway…Karnak I’m stuck between it being Wonka or Mr. Wilkinson (from the 1971 movie)…I’m leaning more towards Wonka because of certain headcannons I have that would make this au…EVEN SADDER.

Any more questions? (You have no idea how happy I am that I’m getting asked about this!!! EEEEEEEEE!!!!

“I’ve waited YEARS for someone to ask me about theories…! Hang on, I made a model!!! :)”

Fusing Total Drama Characters In Sims 4 (Part 19)

I’m fusing Total Drama characters in Sims 4 using the genetic mechanic.

Why?

I don’t flipping know. Why not?

I’m gonna do EVERY pairing possible. This post is just gonna be however long Tumblr allows for images.

So let’s just get into it.

I’m using my own TD Sims for this. They’re in the Gallery if you want them. As well as all these pairings and sims that get generated. So what you want.

Justin + Noah

In an alternate universe I feel like this would be a fun ship, actually. In AU context though.

We’re using Justin a lot this time so we’re gonna get some hot kids.

Let’s see if I’m right on that…

Okay…?

Eh? The girls clothes don’t match. Idk why she’s wearing gloves. But her hair and face are actually cute. I like that she’s more plus sized. That’s something you don’t expect from this combo.

The boy is your genetic typical sim.

The girls name is Elizabeth. She’s a rancher & childish.

The boys name is Yosef. He’s jealous & a cat lover.

Justin + Eva

Alright, let’s see…

OOF.

I mean the boy does have Justin’s face there. A lot of him could work if it weren’t for the pants.

The girl is a straight up disaster. WHAT IS THIS?!

Mismatch shoes. The jeans are ripped.

That’s a hideous bun. She has this eyeshadow. And two nose rings that are different colors. WHY?!

(I don’t like nose rings)

The girls name is Letica. She’s cheerful & a rancher.

The boys name is Art. He’s a kleptomaniac & paranoid.

Justin + Ezekiel

Alright, let’s see…

Okay.

They uh… there’s next to NO Justin here. But they’re okay.

Girls nice and casual. Nothing wrong there.

The boy is definitely a character. But I kinda like it?

Like, this explorer vibe actually really works for me.

The girls name is Arjuna. She’s gloomy & vegetarian.

The boys name is Rolando. He’s a child of the islands & loyal.

Justin + Alejandro

Ah. The kings of beauty.

Now this one has to be good!

WHAT THE F%#K?!

HOLY SH#T THESE ARE AWFUL!!

WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!?!?!

Why is the boys hair like that? Why is his chest like that?! Why does he have a nose ring?! Why is he wearing eyeliner?!

Why is the girls facial structure so awful?! Why is her hair that many colors?! Why the nose ring?! Why the spiked collar?! Why this skirt with these gloves with this shirt with these boots?! THATS NOT CHARACTER DESIGN!!!!

How do the two hottest male Total Drama character procreate the UGLIEST sims I have EVER SEEN?!?!

Anyway the boys name is Sonny. He’s a child of the islands & perfect.

The girls name is Annabeth. She’s a bookworm & geek.

Justin + Sierra

Oh here we go. The last one.

I was miserable making this sim. I f%#king LOATHE Sierra as a character. So I am NOT happy to be using her.

I’m kinda routing for these to be as ugly as possible just to spite her.

So let’s pray that’s the case…

Mighty disappointed cause they kinda work.

Yeah this part was a bust.

The boy actually works quite well. Everything matches. He’s cute.

I would say the hair for the girl is terrible, but… idk, the fact that it’s purple kinda saves it.

DONT ask me how the boy is blonde. I have no idea.

The girls name is Maureen. She’s squeamish & a maker.

The boys name is Jasper. He’s a party animal & lacrosse intolerant.

Say these generated sims were on a team on a show. What’s their team name?

Hi! I've been seeing your posts on hair loss and while I find them extremely informative and of use, I wondered if I'll still lose hair if I have a lot of it? Like, I was born with and still have tons of hair and very thick, so I was wondering if there was something about it! It's the thing I'm worried about the most when it comes to t.

Lee says:

Good morning anon! Thank you so much for reaching out and for your kind words about the blog. It's great to hear that you find the posts informative!

When it comes to hair loss, it's important to remember that everyone's experience with T is unique, and so is their hair. Having a lot of hair or thick hair does provide some initial "buffer" against hair loss, but it doesn't necessarily mean you won't experience it eventually. The majority of people with male pattern baldness had plenty of hair at some point in their lives, so you can't count on having hair now to save you from losing it.

Testosterone can increase the likelihood of male pattern baldness, which is largely influenced by genetics. If male pattern baldness runs in your family, you might be more prone to experiencing it, regardless of how much hair you currently have.

One older study that is often cited found that 80% of white men had some amount of hair loss by 80 years old. If you have older male relatives who are biologically related to you, like your father, uncles, grandfathers, etc, take a look at their heads for a glimpse into your future.

However, there are steps you can take to manage and potentially reduce the risk of significant hair loss:

Monitor changes: Keep an eye on your hair's thickness and any changes in your hairline. Early detection can help in managing the situation better-- you may decide to stop testosterone which will stop the baldness from progressing, for example.

Have a healthy lifestyle: This doesn't make a big difference but it doesn't hurt either. Maintain a healthy scalp by using gentle hair care products, avoiding excessive heat styling, and ensuring a nutritious diet. Stress can also contribute to hair loss, so incorporating stress management techniques like mindfulness, exercise, or therapy can be beneficial. These changes can only do so much, but they're also things that you should do anyway so it doesn't hurt to try them if they're also minimally protective.

Medications: There are medications available, like finasteride and minoxidil, that can help in slowing down hair loss and regrowing hair. It's important to discuss these options with your healthcare provider since they can carry risks. We've written a small amount about them in the past here as well.

Will minoxidil (i.e., Rogaine) enhance my facial hair growth?

Using Minox for facial hair

Minox is deadly to some pets like cats and may cause hair growth in unusual places

A high concentration of minoxidil (like 12.5%) can cause low blood pressure

My Personal Experience with Minoxidil Pre-T

DHT blockers

I've been on testosterone for maybe around 5 years (although, full disclosure, that also includes a year of low-dose T, and plenty of missed dose weeks/months) and I'm in my 20's now. If you had asked me this Q last month I'd have said that my hairline looks the same as it did when I was pre-T and 17, but the other day my partner has said that testosterone has changed my hairline a bit. It happens. In my case, I don't mind the way I look (at least for now) and don't feel like doing anything about it, but that might change one day.

Earlier I mentioned that you can stop taking T when you notice hair loss to prevent it from progressing, and that's true, but obviously if you stop T then you'll end up losing some testosterone changes, esp. body fat distribution and muscle mass, which can change how your face and body looks.

It's valid to stop T if you want to! There's a stigma about "detransitioning" which is sad because everyone should feel supported in doing what they need to do to feel comfortable in their body, whether that means transitioning or detransitioning.

It's also valid to stop T without labeling that as "detransitioning." And the reverse is true: it's also valid to feel that stopping T is detransitioning for you, even if you still identify as transgender. Being trans doesn't mean medically transitioning, and detransitioning doesn't mean not being trans. (Side note: Deidentifying does mean not identifying as trans anymore and that's also valid too!)

Anyway, tangent over. Whether you end up stopping T, switching to a lower dose, or continue taking it even if you'll lose more hair, it won't "undo" the hair loss you've already experienced.

So if you do experience male-patterned baldness or other hormonal-related hair loss, even minoxidil can't guarantee that it'll come back. There are things like hair transplants which can help if minox doesn't, but that's expensive and would likely be self-pay so you'd have to pay out of pocket.

Hair loss is a common experience for many people and can be a part of natural aging combined with hormonal changes. It's okay to feel a range of emotions about this type of change. Growing up is weird and we often have a messed-up relationship with aging. Remember, hair is just one aspect of who you are. Beauty is diverse and subjective, and baldness or hair thinning can be embraced as a unique aspect of your appearance. Look for role models in your personal life or public figures who are bald and exude confidence and style. Maybe you'll be okay with it when it happens to you-- you can't always predict what's going to happen before it happens. But not everyone is okay with it.

To notice that you've had hair loss, you have to have a noticeable amount of hair loss. I know that's circular but the point that I'm making is that if you aren't comfortable with the possibility that you may experience a small but permanent amount of hair thinning or hairline recession on testosterone, then starting testosterone might not be the right choice for you.

And that's okay! Not everyone wants to be on T (even if they want some changes, sometimes they don't want other changes and decide not to take it at all) and there's nothing wrong with that.

If you feel like all of the changes that you'd get from being on T would be worth the possibility of some hair loss, then T is probably the right choice for you.

And again, there are some things that you can try to reduce the speed of hair loss, including being on a lower dose, which makes changes occur at a slower pace, taking a DHT blocker like finasteride as soon as you start T, which may reduce the risk of hair loss but may also affect other T changes, applying topical minoxidil when you notice any hair changes, and stopping T entirely and possibly even getting a hair transplant if necessary.

Remember, it's okay to have concerns about physical changes, and it's always good to ask questions and seek information. Do speak about your concerns with a medical provider if you have a consultation about starting testosterone.

You're not alone in this journey, and there are many resources and support systems available to help you navigate these changes. If you have any more questions or need support, don't hesitate to reach out! And it's okay to take your time-- you don't need to figure out whether testosterone is the right choice for you in one day. You have your whole life to figure it out, and you can always change your mind!

Followers, does anyone else have personal experiences with hair loss on testosterone to share with anon?

Smackdown 7/4/25 — Part 1

Cody, Randy, Drew opening segment

I really wish Cody would drop the suits.

Oh he gets to keep the crown? I would have put money on this being like the crown jewel belts and it'd have to live in Saudi Arabia forever.

He's holding it like it doesn't cost more than my mortgage jeez.

Nice shout out for Cam. Cody does really seem like a decent guy even if it comes off a little disingenuous sometimes.

They really can't have Cody turn heel while Cena is the way he is. I don't want heel vs heel.

Alert! Randy's wearing pants!

I really hope Randy is back to being on weekly! I miss him!

Also that clip of him on Stephanie's podcast talking about having panic attacks was amazing. He is a great example of someone growing and changing and learning in a healthy manner.

We don't need to hear the whole fucking song every entrance though.

Like it's Cena's retirement tour not Randy's. Yet.

I like this iteration of Randy. I like that he's wrestling (heh) with his more questionable instincts but also that he isn't shaming Cody for doing exactly what he would do. I like tweeners and heels with logic.

Oh god Drew said Beta Male Energy. That's a big yuck.

I'm going to get kicked out of the fandom here but I'm not a fan of Drew. As in he's a great heel because he makes me hate him. Love his cats! Find him very annoying on screen.

"A few years ago" Drew come on, Randy hasn't punted anyone in over a decade. A few years ago he was with Riddle doing stoner comedy.

I do like the leather kilt with the t-shirt look though.

Backstage stuff, Tag Triple Threat Match: Secret Hervice vs Bliss/Flair vs B-Fab/Michin

What's on Charlotte's top?? Is that a lion? Baphomet?

I like this tag angle with Alexa and ChaOhrlotte. They both are in desperate need of something to do and I like this better than a straight feud.

Of course this means they are definitely winning this match which is heartbreaking because it should be the Secret Hervice.

Oh good Randy get's to be on SNME!

Oh good Jimmy is back to being a tag wrestler

Charlotte looks.... uncertain? during her entrance. Like a little nervous maybe? Not so cocky but like not storyline I think she's actually uncertain. (but that may be misreading her new face) (that was so mean I'm so sorry) (she looks great! just different).

Tbh if the Sabin cosplay goes well I think I'll do Bliss next.

Oh god Michin was so short of Bliss and Flair.

And our first commercial is once again during a women's match...

Oh no not a head pat tag hahaha that's pretty funny.

An interesting choice from Charlotte to go for a full hug. One win and she's sold?

They need to do something with the Green Regime ASAP.

Smackdown Tag Division's weekly backstage segment, 8-man tag match, Giulia package

I like that they're letting Angel and Berto have their Triple A belts on Smackdown.

But I think the weird camera work they have to do to even get Los Garza and MCMG in frame goes to show that there are too many tag teams on Smackdown.

Can't believe Lumis wrestles in thick working gloves.

Super kick party????

I just threw up in my mouth typing that.

Everyone in this match is such a good wrestler. Honestly I hate how little air time the tag teams get. They are so much better than the Smackdown men's mid-card.

Street Profits are fucking champs and they're getting shafted during their reign.

Lolol great theatrical hot tag from Tez.

Man Sabin can make a hurricanrana on anyone look amazing. It's crazy how good he is at it. Bigger, taller, faster, half botched – doesn't matter, Sabin will make it look amazing.

He's still so fast and agile. And a great storyteller.

Obviously I'm super bias but he's in the ring so little lately let me have this!

I hate that they're making him eat the pin but he got more of the spotlight than just about anyone so I'll take it.

Loved the spot with Gargano backing out of tagging in. I love moments like that in matches. When they slow down and build character moments.

It's a pre-tapped package, let her speak english. And I'm not saying that in a "this is America speak english" way. But Smackdown has a majority english-speaking audience and I think it is hampering Giulia's ability to connect with that audience if she's doing packages like this. She's new to the main roster and they're not giving her a lot of chances to connect with fans. If they're worried about her being understood in live promos and that's why they're doing pre-tapes fine I guess. But then they should use that time to have the fans get used to the way she speaks so they can learn her accent.

Sorry that was a bit of a rant. But it bothers me because I think they're doing the wrestlers, in this case Giulia, a disservice.
