The Red Devil's Chronicles: Devil May Cry April - August 2024 News Updates: Collabs, Netflix, etc.

Hey, how's it going? Hope you're all having a good and safe summer. I meant to share these updates last month, but things got real busy. Here are the Devil May Cry updates I've gathered these past few months:

1. Capcom voting session gives results for what fans voted for. b) Devil May Cry V and Dante hit #1 on most popular things from Capcom.

2. Speaking of DMCV, it has reached over 8 million copies sold!

3. Another Devil May Cry event at the Capcom Cafe. b) More info.

4. Dante trending greatly again on Twitter/X.

5. Capcom making changes to their localization policies. b) And they have no plans of getting rid of physical media.

6. More Peak of Combat troubles. b) And more. c) Trish added to Peak of Combat.

7. Devil May Cry cast reunion.

8. Teppen gets another card pack update, featuring Nero.

9. New Street Fighter Duel X DMCV mobile game.

10. Rumours of Devil May Cry appearing in Fortnite still continue.

11. Either a new trailer or Season 1 of the Devil May Cry Netflix series will be airing this September.

My Thoughts On These Updates: 1. Really cool how one of my most favourite games, along with my most favourite fictional character make it to the top. 2. Big congratz to Capcom for having DMCV sell over 8 million.

3. Really wish that the west can have cafe events like Japan does.

4. Awesome to see Dante temporarily trending again.

5. I understand that Capcom's trying to appeal to certain audiences when it comes to cutural differences, but they need to realize that it's not what their fans want at all. If anything, it just ruins the charm of whatever they've created from the start. On the plus side, it's great that they're not gonna get rid of their physical media. I'd rather physically have (and collect) games from my favourite series.

6. Just when things couldn't get any worse for Peak of Combat.... Congrats to Suzie for voicing as Trish, but I really worry for her. Every voice actor that's participated in Peak of Combat have been scammed. And what bothers me and other Devil May Cry fans as well are those that keep getting sucked into some gambling scheme, and are oblivious to what sick and twisted things are happening behind the scenes. It's strange how people lose their minds over how Ninja Theory treated their fans in a disrespectful manner while no one bats an eye on what Nebula Joy's been doing. It's also strange how Capcom was quick to take action on the old vocalist for Dante's Subhuman song, but they're not doing anything about whatever Nebula Joy's doing. Good news is that they are doing an investigation, so hopefully this whole mess will finally be put to a halt.

7. Cool to see the cast together.

8. Interesting how Teppen keeps updating with more Devil May Cry stuff. And a nice twist to add some Dead Rising characters in there as a way of celebrating their remaster.

9. Another mobile card game with Devil May Cry characters? Oh, my.

10. I'm not really a fan of Fortnite, but it's cool to see all these random characters become available. As cool as it would be to see Dante or any other Devil May Cry character in this game, at the same time I just find it strange and....cringe....Apologies for sounding negative, but I just don't really care for Fortnite.

11. I was wondering when we'd get more stuff happening with the Netflix series!

Often Dystopia (And how its gonna affect my art)

As much as there are some seriously good dystopian fiction. (yes im enamored with sci-fi) personally to me it almost feels tired but i understand the appeal and popularity

But how does this effect my art, and turn TillinGhast Corporate Media

Well first let me explain what TillinGhast Corporate Media is

TGCM was and is me taking what little part of my previous project that never took off and i never made it very far with, Tillinghast

Tillinghast was my outlet for my anger and isolation, and originally began after the death of my grandfather and the falling out of the people i had tried to gather for a band

I had written an ep dealing with my loss and an album that was inspired by election day 2016 and the amount of anger that i felt towards the establishment that i was already growing increasingly tired of

I ended that project after 2-3 years of trying to find vocalists/funds/and start making art

after that died i didnt touch any project and just wrote shitty electronic again, much like everytime i get bored with writing metal, but this time i had much more fun making just beeps and boops with no expectation of vocals and just making basic looping music

So where did TillinGhast Corporate Media come from?

If you notice i did keep the tillinghast name, as i found out when i first started this solo shit, isnt wasnt in use by any active musicians, and i only found one band that hadnt been active in over 8 years

But i wanted something new

something different

So i kinda let my focus on music, the thing i had been doing for over 10 years, go to the side to try and create elsewhere, right at the beginning of 2020

the first thing i thought i would try?

Writing a book

Which as a lot of people on here know, is really really really really really fucking hard to do, especially when you start this shit working a 9 hour overnight shift and writing on days off while everyone else you care about is asleep

And in figuring out what i had wanted to write then, i decided to not go big, but to try and keep me entertained, i needed more than just a few characters

So using a small chunk of info i had written down when i was trying to get into dnd and make my own scifi version of the game, i created a few planets, each with different species and histories and lore and economies

and i made a decision

Each planet would have different stories

to try and keep me entertained

which worked for about a year, and i havent updated since because i have trouble making myself create anything other than music, but i dont wanna get too recent or on a tangent

But why the name TillinGhast Corporate Media?

Well, because it sounds cool as shit. I used to love vaporwave and alternative genres and anything i could find that was "weird"

but also at some point i decided that if i do ever blow up, i want to hire other creatives and actually pay them well, and give them a place to really get out a message for the future

But its just me

So i get to have all the say

at least for now

But why a universe you ask? Why is this so damn long? Get to the point?

well at least for two of those im trying to be verbose and explain myself, and honestly if you read this far i love you and hope that youll stay here on this journey with me

I've always wanted to be part of a group, art creative, touring band, etc.

Ive gotten close only once or twice, but ive always been diy and taught myself shit so i figured i wanted to combine all of my loves into one thing, one giant sandbox where i can be creative in my decisions

And once again, i didnt want it to be just me. So TillinGhast Corporate Media will always be changing and evolving as i learn more about this giant world im having to navigate

I will say there will probably errors or fails, but i want this to be inclusive and open and loving so other people can use this as a means to escape, if even for a little bit, the harsh reality we all face.

Much like i got an escape in music and books as a kid and teenager

So why a universe? because a universe is big and can hold many stories and many perspectives, much like a library can hold many different pieces of knowledge

So to get to the final point, for those of you who actually made it this far based on the title

TillinGhast Corporate Media both as myself and as a future idea or brand

at least for now

Will not ever be a dystopia story

I have not forced myself to change and grow and evolve and continue to sit in my negativity and apathy and just general poopy pants view of the world

To not try with all my might to maybe write something that while not a utopia, is not dystopia and imagines a brighter, better, future where people maybe dont have to worry about as much, because they learned from our awful horrible past and actually refuse to repeat any of it

To try and make this more about characters and stories and music and the things that make myself and others smile, instead of regurgitated dystopias where even basic life is rough

does this mean everything will be all flowers and butterflies and my little pony?

absolutely the fuck not

Truth is often stranger than fiction and anything can happen even in a shiny place, but the point is to not be a negative nancy and have a bunch of shitty stuff going on all the time

One of the planets is a floating colony with what little remains of the human race

One planet is basically in the middle of an uprising of an exiled group

The book im writing (kinda spoilery but idk if ever ill finish this damn thing) literally has an act of terrorism being planned from someone who was radicalized by a really bad group that is basically space religion and its many parallels

All of my short stories are slice of life stuff that happens in a few scenarios where each character reacts to an outside force

But this wont ever be some dragged out for purely entertainment type angsty or edgy or anything like some books do with trauma

i want to look at stuff like we're building to something better, not something worse. optimistic but not utopia or something like that

(honestly this point ive already kinda gotten myself choked up so im gonna wrap it up)

But TillinGhast Corporate Media is basically my idea for a better future

and maybe im wrong and my stuff sucks and i need to change it

i have no idea because no one really follows my shit

so i just do what i want within the dumb boundaries and expectations i place on myself

but it is has been better before and it will get better again, and i am tired of that place being only in my head

so im creating this big huge universe with aliases that i call "artists" so it looks like there is actual musicians in this universe, i at one point started on a medium length animation series, and im trying to use my shitty computer to learn 3d shit

So stick around, at least you'll get some music out of it

and on that note i will mention i do have a few singles and 2 albums out, all of which is on youtube and streaming sites (its on spotify but i fucking hate spotify both as a company and some of the people they sponsor stream on any other site please you'll give more money to your favorite artists)

A Guide To          (Ranked 4s)

As someone who is still pretty new at this, I know first hand how difficult it is to find decent information on how to Feast. It’s been pretty rare for someone to take the time to shoot me a message and tell me exactly what I’m doing wrong, and even more rare that they’er actually kind about it.

Between parties not performing well, general toxicity, ect, it’s easy to see how people quickly become frustrated and quit. It’s easy to see why the PVP community is so small.

If you’re interested or know someone who is, please pass this guide along.

If you have any information to add/correct, please do not hesitate to let me know. I only started in season 5 and am still learning. Later I’ll try and snap some shots of how it looks like when classes use their signature moves for bursting.

Good luck out there, and happy feasting! Who knows, we might bump into each other.

Party Makeup

Parties will always be made up of a tank, healer, melee (close range), and a long range. Everyone’s skill sets are simplified, however many classes have their utilities that they can use to further help their team. I do not know all classes, nor will I go through each class. The following information about each role is very general and doesn’t necessarily apply to all classes under the summarized role.

Tanks:  Do your best to use your skills to keep party members alive and bother the enemy healer. It also helps very greatly to help dps the target when you are free, and also to slow/stun/stop enemy party members if it seems like the damage being received by a party member is too high. Stuns, silences, ect are best done on the enemy healer when an enemy is getting hit hard to try and secure the kill.

Healers: You know your job, but healing can become difficult due to LoS (line of sighting) and having an enemy tank knocking you around. Try your best to keep up with the party to keep them within your healing range. Damage can be sudden and deadly, so keep on your toes. If you are getting focused, you can use LoS to your advantage to try and keep damage bearable. Run around objects or back and forth at the end of a wall. Be sure to put Slide Casting to good use. More on Slide Casting towards the end of this guide, under Tips. DPSers: The party cannot win without having decent kills, however you also won’t kill anyone if you don’t work with your co-dps. Focus on a single target together and, if you can, try to burst out the highest amount of damage you can muster in the smallest amount of time, preferably at the same time with your Co-DPS. You don’t want the damage to be slow, otherwise the healer can keep them up no problem. However you don’t want to risk dying either. Always make sure that you’re within healing range of your healer. You can easily get killed if you’re too far or behind a wall.

General Gameplay

Your goal is to have more medals than the enemy team by the end of the match. However, carrying medals also causes a burden of a defence debuff. The more medals you have, the lower your defence (Heavy Medal debuff), to a point where a healer couldn’t possibly keep you alive.

With this in mind, never go above 169 medals. Never go above a 1 stack debuff. 

Anything higher makes you an easy target and it won’t be your healer’s fault if you die. On the flip side, you can also use this to your advantage if an enemy is overstacking. They are easier to kill, especially if they have an awesome 10 stack debuff. If they die, half of their medals will be dropped, so be careful and double check how many medals you currently have before picking them up.

Do your best to bother the healer, dps together on a single target, shield each other, help each other, and halt the enemy when needed. As time progresses and kills aren’t made, culling times begin and will only end upon someone’s death. During culling, debuffs that are the equivalent of Heavy Medal stacks will slowly increase. These are the scary moments.

Boxes will also spawn during the match at set times. Adrenaline boxes spawn at 6m and 2m left on the timer, and increase your Adrenaline Gauge by 25%. Generally the melee has the better limit break, so give the adrenaline to them if they need it. Try not to let the enemy have it even if you don’t need it.

There is also the blessed Wolf’s Heart. This spawns at 4min left in the match and always at the center of the arena. This baby gives 2% max MP and 5% max TP per second and 10% increased movement speed. This is a high priority item so get it asap. Sometimes the ranged DPS will even LB it and others will bind/stun enemy dps to halt them from breaking it open. Whichever side gets the Wolf’s Heart will have a very big advantage and can easily change the tide of the game. Generally it’s best to give it to the healer for the best outcome. However, if you feel your party’s healer won’t survive at all, even after obtaining the Wolf’s Heart, it might be in your better interest to give it to whoever seems most competent in your party.

Strategy

So how in Halone are we supposed to have our party work together and sync properly? Especially with the lack of party chat? If you look in your PvP profile, there is a section for chat commands. Such as hitting the skill Charge will cause you to yell [Everyone Attack!] in the party chat, joined with a sound effect. You can also still use way marks and party signs to help you, as well as macros. Macros will be listed later. It can also help to put someone (friend or foe) on focus so you can watch what they’er targeting as well as their buffs and debuffs.

Generally it’s best to mark a target as 1 so that everyone can focus their damage on this target. However, you still want to time your bursts and any stuns/silences that may end up on the enemy healer to pan out at the same time. Use the count down macro I have included. It’ll mark the target to 5, then count down to 1. It’s also good to use a call out to get everyone’s attention before using the countdown macro. A favourite is using the pvp chat Charge.

As 2 changes to 1, this is when you want everything to happen. The combined and condensed damage both dps are doing, as well as any silence/stuns on the enemy healer, may secure a kill for you. If not, it should pressure the enemy healer into popping their defence buffs and maybe even their emergency heals. It’s okay if a kill doesn’t happen, because now the enemy healer has (hopefully) depleted their defences. Keep this up and keep it rappid. If your team works together well, you’ll get your kills. If your class has specific skills that could help, such as debuffs to put on the target, go for it and use them.

Sometimes, especially if your target gets deleted, it might be in your interest to switch targets to the healer after you see them deplete their skills. They’ll be mostly defenceless. If you get the healer down, the rest of the party can easily be killed. Be careful though. Healers may run and try to run around walls and objects to LoS you. If you follow them without watching where you are relative to your party’s healer, you could accidently LoS your own healer and leave yourself as a sitting duck.

Be mindful of your surroundings no matter who you are. If you feel yourself getting heavily damaged, it may be in your best interest to retreat and seek cover around objects. Again, just be careful not to LoS or get out of the range of your own healer. If you recognize a burst (such as when a Dragoon turns red and especially if they’er tethered), counter it however you can. If you’re getting targeted, put distance between you two. If you have shields, use them on whoever is getting bursted. If you have sleep/stuns/ect use it on whoever is bursting to halt it.

In higher tier matches, it becomes obvious that everyone is really good at what they do and it almost feels impossible to otherwise secure a kill. This is also when you may notice whoever is doing call outs are rapidly switching targets everywhere before finally settling on one to count down and burst on. This is Swapping. At this point you’re trying to be more stealthy about who your target is. After all, if you just mark a target and stay on it even when not count down bursting, it’s pretty obvious to the enemy team who they need to protect. Swapping around together like this can help make it harder to predict who is going to get harm.

Lastly, if you have skills that can be interrupted then it might be in your best interest to try and communicate with your party when you do use this skill. Such as sleep. If someone is slept, the moment they are attacked they will be awoken. Sleep is nice as it can help extend the time the enemy healer is unable to heal, as well as halt the enemy when they’er bursting or when your party is forced to retreat due to your healer getting killed. Try and hit [Stopping X!] and even mark that target as target to ignore before using your skill.

Macros

Macros can help you greatly. Anything from instant targeting, to marking, to using skills on party members without having to select them. Keep in mind that you can target anyone by a name also but you cannot use skills on an enemy target who is targeted by name.

/micon “skill” pvpaction (micon for pvp skills specifically. Good to see their cool downs since they are separate from pve skills.)

/target <attack1> (targets whoever is marked 1) /target <f> (targets whoever you have focused) /target “name” (targets whoever you name, be it friend or foe) /target <1>, <2>, <3>, <4> (targets your party members from first to fourth. Pick one.) /as “name”, <1>, ect (targets whoever the subject is targeting. IE /as “enemyname” will let you target whoever they’er currently attacking.)

/pvpac “skillname” <1>, <f>, “name”, ect (use a skill on this subject. "name” will NOT work for enemy targets. Sorry, no /pvpac “Fluid Aura” “EnemyTank”. A nice example for party use is for Dark Knights /pvpac “The Blackest Night” <2> or maybe White Mage /pvpac “Fluid Aura” <f>)

The following lines are the countdown macro. It will only work if someone is already targeted as 1. Keep in mind that if you use any other macro while the count down is in process, the timer will halt. This includes targeting macros.

/mk attack5 <attack1> <wait.1> /mk attack4 <attack5> <wait.1> /mk attack3 <attack4> <wait.1> /mk attack2 <attack3> <wait.1> /mk attack1 <attack2> <wait.1>

Just About Ready? A Few More Tips.

Before you hop in, try to know and understand your class to the best of your ability. Build macros that you think will help you. Practice on the dummies in the Wolves Den to make sure you have everything down. Use the macros, including the count down macro, so you can get the muscle memory in, especially if you’re a dps trying to weave this into learning your bursts and how to ready your next burst asap. Hell, practice swapping, too. If you need to, make macros to mimic the Feast chat call outs so you can practice with those too.

This is also a good time to see if you like where all your keys are. Feast is pretty fast paced and constantly moving, so you want to be able to use your skills while on the move. When you practice, keep moving around the dummy and move things to better positions if need be.

For casters, it’ll be very important for you to learn how to Slide Cast, especially if you’re a healer. This will help you greatly so that you can heal yourself and use objects to run around and LoS enemies with. Normally when you cast a spell and move, the spell gets interrupted. However, you will still cast your spell anyway if you move late enough into the cast. I don’t know about other spells, but having tried out healer, moving when there’s .5 seconds or less left in the cast.

You should also adjust your HUD. Make everything easy to see at a glance, but not covering your screen too much. You’ll want to see all the rapid movement going on, especially to watch for openings and if someone is bursting. You’ll also want to keep the score board up so you can keep track of how many medals everyone has.

If you get the map that’s covered in grass, be careful about your defence/offence boxes at the start. Due to the map’s set up, one party’s long range can very easily sprint to the other side of the map and destroy the other party’s boxes. If this happens, that party will lose the contents of that box and will go to the other party instead. Be sure to break the further box first. If you’re a tank or healer, it might be in your better interest to go straight to center to try and intercept anyone attempting this.

As for boxes, try to let someone beat up the boxes that would benefit from it, especially the left side/defence box. A lot of close range, including tanks, need to beat things up to increase their meter, ect. Melee typically takes the right/offence box, so if you’re ranged, let someone else beat up the left/defence box. If no one comes to beat it up, then go for it yourself. Dark Knights, for example, gain blood for their blood meter through their combos. If you let them break the box, they can use bloodspiller sooner, which gives you an earlier opportunity to silence the healer.

Don’t forget about using focus. This can help you greatly by letting you see someone’s current buffs, used buffs, current resistances, ect in real time. For instance, you can use it on the enemy healer to watch when their stun/silence resistance wears off.

Since there is no party chat in Feast, you can try your best to communicate to those who don’t know what to do. For instance, if your party destroys the Wolf’s Heart, but it doesn’t look like your healer is picking it up, try this: Mark the healer as 1 and spam [collecting wolfs heart]. You can even spam mark 1 on the healer to make it blink above their head. It’s better than nothing.

So that your chat is clean, make a new tab and only have Party under the Chat tab enabled, as well as System Messages, Own Battle System Messages, Loot Notices, and Sign Messages for PC Targets under the Announcements tab. This is especially nice to see exactly how many medals an enemy target drops. You can do some quick math to make sure you don’t go over 169 total medals yourself.

Remember, there is very little information out there. Not a lot of people will understand at first, but try not to get angry at them. They may be just as new as you are. Try to teach before you resort to becoming a rude brute. Because, quite frankly, it doesn’t give you a gold star to look like a total ass. I don’t care how good you are. You’re still an ass if you resort to rude behavior, especially if it’s very clear that they just need a bit of coaching.

Be kind to one another and have fun out there.

Astarion and Power - Part 1

Disclaimer Game Version: All these analyses were made up to the game version v4.1.101.4425. As long as new content is added, and as long as I have free time for that, I will try to keep updating this information.

Additional disclaimers about meta-knowledge and interpretations in (post)

The number between brackets [] represents the topic-block related to (this post), which gathers as much evidence as I could get.

Before talking about Power, Cazador, and other details, I would like to quickly gather what little we have about Astarion’s past. 

Backstory: Mortal Astarion.

About his past we have little information, mostly given by Swen in interviews with game magazines or via his on-live demonstrations of the game early in 2020 before the release of EA. All this information is subjected to changes, of course, so we should take it with a pinch of salt. 

As a mortal, Astarion was a corrupt magistrate who judged criminals he later sent to the local vampire coven of the Szarr family as food. After a while, his greed got the best of him and started to sell those criminals into slavery as well, having a double profit from this. This movement brought the fury of the Szarr family upon him. 

From this short story we can infer that there was a high probability that his judgements were unfair, condemning criminals who needed a death sentence to lighter ones (this is related to his strange comment of “death is a harsh sentence” in Arabella’s scene, see the post Astarion's Standards and Manipulation) while condemning innocent ones; all with the goal of having a decent amount of living creatures to offer to the local vampire or to the slave traders.

We also know, by his own words in game, that when he was turned into a vampire, he had been the victim of an attack of thugs/Gurs (he says this information in different moments of the game, changing details. I don't know if this is on purpose to show Astarion’s manipulative nature depending on your reaction to Gandrel, or it’s a consequence of unpolished details during EA). What we know for sure is that these Gurs/thugs were angry because of a judgement he had previously made. It’s easy for us to infer, using the info above, two situations:

Astarion may have condemned some isolated Gur to an unfair trial who ended up in a slavery network, being discovered later by their Gur fellows who simply avenged them in Baldur’s Gate. This theory has been developed as a way to see fit the concept of Maiden Fel.  If Gandrel dies and Astarion performs a Speak with Dead, he will reveal that Maiden Fel is the head of his tribe who asked him to return with Astarion “unblemished”. Digging for more details about who Maiden Fel is, Gandrel says she is the “reason even monsters have nightmares”. Walking on the speculation ground, there is a chance that Maiden Fel could be a nightmare Hag, since Gurs consider hags as “wise women'', and unlike the rest of the humans, they respect them a bit more than common folks.

Or the whole setting was done by Cazador, who plotted this ambush to make it look as an act of barbarism using furious Gurs (which attack could be seen as an obvious reaction since Gurs are despised everywhere due to their nomadic lifestyle and all the stigmas they carry) as a way to punish Astarion for trying to outsmart him.

Among the many conclusions that we can draw from here is that, if Astarion’s backstory is not retconned and rewritten later in the full game, we can be almost sure he was an Evil-aligned character as a mortal. We can’t say that vampirism twisted his morals; they were rather poor in the first place. 

Astarion, the Vampire spawn

After the bite scene, Astarion presents himself as a vampire spawn, a creature lesser than a slave for his master, since Cazador’s commands are impossible to resist. He explicitly says that his body always reacts to Cazador’s word and for two hundred years he was tormented by him. Thanks to datamining information, we know that Cazador performed an infernal deal, and part of the contract is carved on his back. 

Due to datamining information as well, we know that the first dream that Astarion experiences may not be the one related to the tadpole dreams mechanics since he dreams without having made use of the tadpole powers yet. I prefer to suppose that this dream is product of his own psychology, or even it could be an effect of Cazador’s power on him (maybe he can’t dream of anything but of his Sire, considering how possessive Cazador is)

As I said, this is not a dream of power and desire in the same way that the other companions or Tav have, and for this reason I’m inclined to say that the vampiric power of Cazador is the one making an effect instead of the tadpole (or simply Astarion’s trauma showing). This dream looks like a reminder, like a reiterative dream for Astarion about Cazador’s rule, which are:

rule 1: he will not drink from thinking creatures.

rule 2: he will obey him in all things.

rule 3: he will not leave Cazador’s side unless directed.

rule 4: he will know that he is Cazador’s proprietary.

Most options end up in the similar idea of: “Free? Lie to yourself, boy, but not to me. You are mine, forever.”

Cazador and Astarion

[Astarion has just related what Cazador made him eat] “Flies? What did you do to deserve that?”

“I existed, that was enough for him. He revelled in having power over me, because those with power can do whatever the hell they want.”

If we are going to talk about power with a character as Astarion in mind, we need to talk first about Cazador. Let’s start with the way Astarion describes him:

“The biggest threat to a vampire is another vampire. They're scheming, paranoid, power hungry beasts. So why would any vampire give up control over a spawn to create a competitor? Trust me, it doesn't happen.”

“Cazador Szarr is a vampire lord in Baldur’s Gate. The patriarch of his coven and a monster obsessed with power.(...) Not political power or military power. Power over people. The power to control them completely. (...) He turned me nearly two hundred years ago. I became his spawn and he became my tormentor.” 

“He had me go out Baldur’s Gate to fetch him the most beautiful souls I could find. It was a fun little ritual of his—I’d bring them back and he’d ask if I wanted to dine with him. And if I said yes, he’d serve me a dead, putrid rat. Of course if I said no, he’d have me flayed. Hard to say which was worse.”

“Cazador liked to make them art, spent all night with a razor, drafting a sonnet on my back. (Puppy eyes) Apparently the more I screamed, the more mistakes he made. And the more editing was required.”

“It was a group of Gur/thugs that attacked me that night in Baldur’s Gate. I would have died had Cazador not appeared and saved me. (...) He chased them off and offered to save me. To give me eternal life. Given that my choices were “eternal life” or “bleed to death on the street”, I took him up on the offer. It was also afterwards I realised just how long “eternity” could be.” 

“Cazador likes to toy with people. Let them think there was hope right until the end. Until he snatched it all away. Creatures like them don’t play games unless they know they’ll win.” 

(About Raphael’s encounter) “All that 'take your time. I'll wait' nonsense? He's playing with us. It reminds me of Cazador, taunting his slaves with hope when he knew the game was rigged. "

Tav: “Would he send another Gur to capture?” / Ast: “Yes, he probably thought it was funny.”

(“We can kill him.”) “No, you don't understand. You don't know him. Just trust me when I say we need to be careful. He'll send more lackies – he has plenty of souls to command. We just have to be vigilant. Keep our wits about us. And kill any monster hunters on sight. We can probably make an exception with Wyll... Probably.”

>>So far we know that Cazador has a particular pleasure for control, especially the one related to people’s will. With the nightmare information, we know he has powers related to mind control. He has many slaves, and enjoys cruelty, humiliation, and torture. He enjoys making Astarion eat putrid animals, carving his back with an infernal contract, and playing psychologically with him. He also likes to give false hope, making his victims believe that there is hope, removing it right in front of them. 

I want to highlight that this twisted way of giving hope just to offer a perverted solution to a person’s problem, and enjoying the pleasure caused by the break of the hope, can be seen in Astarion during EA: in the approval that Astarion gives to Tav when you revive Connor, and that pinch of hope in Mayrina turns into horror when she sees Undead!Connor. For Astarion this situation is “funny”. Similar can be said when he approves telling Arabella’s parents that she will be released after the end of the ritual, when she is in fact dead. 

Astarion describes a bit more what power we should expect from a Lord Vampire:

Shapeshift: turning into mist.

Calling wolves to do his bidding.

Shrugging off blows.

He “could walk into our camp tonight and kill you with his bare hands.”

Astarion and Slavery

One of the characteristics that so far in EA has got my attention was how little conflict Astarion has with slavery, despite having been his former condition. 

He is apathetic to slavery in the best case, or even supporting it in the worse case. Proof of this can be found in the Myconid Colony, when interacting with a duergar slave. He speaks as if it were a totally useful tool that inspires little sympathy in him, since they don't have consciousness. However, he leaves a quite open question when finally adding “Or maybe not”.

But this “maybe not” is not left to speculation, we can see what Astarion truly feels with a non-Gur human slave in another part of the game: in the Zhentarim hideout. This can be checked with Oskar, the painter slave.

You can free Oskar using persuasion with his kidnapper (Astarion keeps neutral, he doesn’t approve the freeing). Now, if you can buy Oskar by paying the gold directly or by using intimidation to lower the price, it would keep Astarion neutral until the moment of the payment is stated, which he disapproves. At first I thought it was because he was truly against slavery of thinking creatures... but it was not. It was because you are paying a lot of money (we need to remember Astarion is greedy [1] as well, he wouldn’t be a vampire if it weren't for his greed). 

Once bought, if you keep Oskar as a slave, and you demand him to keep silent because "you want your slaves silent unless they are spoken to", Oskar will think it's a joke, and you, again, can use the option "I don't joke with my slaves" and then Astarion will approve. None of these options is under any tag to make them believe they are part of a preformative act to prank Oskar. And this is key... this is not a joke. They are used as your real sentiments and intentions, and Astarion approves them.

These reactions are not random, they make sense with his—until this moment unchanged or retconned—backstory, where he had no problem trafficking with criminals as vampire food and later as slaves to have higher profits. So, these two aspects remain in his vampire nature unaltered: the most important thing is always to have profits, and his relationship with slavery is absolutely fine as much as it gives benefits, it’s useful or at least, gives him some entertainment.

The tadpole

We know the tadpole has a particular effect on Astarion. Unlike the other companions, Astarion doesn’t dream of a person who represents to him both desire and power. Power? undoubtedly, but desire? It’s hard to say. The implied, vague concept that Astarion has been sexually abused by Cazador is there (because we know these dreams are about “sensual” desire as well). 

It’s maybe a consequence of the vampirism and, by extension, of Cazador’s power, that makes Astarion unable to dream of anything else but his master. From the datamining information about the non-tadpole dream of Astarion, in which Cazador lists four rules, we know that the fourth one is about never stopping to be Cazador’s propriety, unable to be free, not even in dreams. Maybe Cazador’s effect also applies to Astarion’s dreams as well (but this is a mere speculation, there is no real proof of it on EA or datamining info so far). 

So when Astarion awakes in the beach and sees that some rules of his vampiric nature have been changed, he gets excited about the tadpole, and unlike the rest of the companions, he doesn’t want to get rid of it. He wants to master it, to have control of it. However, when the opportunity of controlling the tadpole appears with Raphael encounter, Astarion is one of the few companions who is completely against it at first. 

“Raphael is playing with us; Cazador liked to toy with people too. Let them think there was hope right until the end. Until he snatched it all away. Creatures like them don't play games unless they know they'll win.”

In that moment, he claims he won’t change a vampiric master for an infernal one. However, when the first use of the Tadpole causes the first symptoms of transformation evident, Astarion falls in despair: he is scared and, calling for Raphael to take him from the camp, he says a curious phrase: 

“I would choose servitude over oblivion any day”

So, after this moment, he is not completely convinced that Raphael is the true solution to his problem but he is more open to keep him as a plan B if anything else fails. Later he claims that it doesn't matter to be a servant of a devil, because he knows Cazador, and he wants to get rid of his power for good. 

“I won't lie, it's tempting. If I keep the tadpole, I risk transforming into a grotesque monster. If I lose the tadpole, Cazador has control of me, body and soul, and I return to the shadows. It's grim either way, so why not sell what's left of my soul to a devil? Better he has it than cazador. Whatever it's coming we need to have our options open.”

Astarion’s process of seeing the potential of the power of the tadpole increases along the game. It gets higher and wilder. The first instances of the tadpole use are about Astarion discovering how much this tadpole gives him powers he can barely understand. 

“The tadpoles are not so bad at all. (...) First I can walk in the sun, then make people dance like puppets? *laughs * I've certainly had worse days.”

He is not an idiot, he knows that, without control, they will end up turning into mind flayers, so he needs to find something powerful that can give him control over his tadpole. This is the reason why he encourages the use of the tadpole after knowing about the netherese magic containing the transformation via Omellun or Ethel.

Ethel explains that the tadpole had been tampered, so the dialogue goes:

Tav: “It's giving us more time, sounds good to me”. 

Astarion: “Perhaps. And who's to say it can't be tampered with further?” (She said it was netherese magic) “it must be powerful magic to stop the parasite in its tracks, I wonder what else it could do?

At that point in the story, he knows that the netherese magic is powerful enough to contain the transformation: so he is now sure that there is more time to use it. So he will end up being the only companion in EA who encourages everyone to use the power:

“What's not to enjoy (with this tadpole)? I can walk in sunlight, trespass upon any home, manipulate minds – I'm the most powerful vampire in the realms. Granted, the looming doom is an issue, but why not enjoy the benefits while we can?

Despite the nightmares happening after every use of the tadpole powers, Astarion doesn’t want to stop. At this point, he is the only companion who doesn’t want to. 

“The power to twist a mind to your will is worth some nightmares.”

By the end of the game, we are sure that Astarion wants this power without doubts. He revels in the power of mind-controlling people, ironically, despite having suffered so much of it under Cazador’s control. If we see all the situations where Astarion’s mind is controlled, or violated, his reactions will be extremely more aggressive than the other companions. He has suffered it a lot, but by the end of EA he is enjoying being on the other side of that power.

AO3

After a bit of arguing, Akira gives his bag to Haru with Morgana inside it, and takes Akechi with him to Crossroads. If given the choice, Akira would have preferred leaving Akechi at Takemi’s apartment to rest, but over the last three days since the notice for the Phantom Thieves’ arrest went out, Akechi has proven that he will refuse to sit still even if it’s for his own health, so he’s coming with Akira.

Akira lets Akechi get a seat on the train and stands up, watching the people on the train mutter amongst themselves. The news bulletin is giving updates about the “dangerous thieves at large.”

“...my aunt had a change of heart before she collapsed...”

“I heard they’ve given mental shutdowns to children too...”

“...put her name on the PhanSite. I hope Shido catches those thieves before something happens to her. She may be a bitch but I don’t want her to die.”

“So quick to turn on their supposed heroes,” Akechi mutters.

Akira hums.

Crossroads is empty when they arrive, save for Ohya and Lala, as usual.

When the door opens, Ohya perks up, her eyes going from Akira, then quickly settling on Akechi. “What’s he doing here?”

“He’s on our side,” Akira says. “Shido doesn’t like him either.”

“Sweet. The enemy of my enemy and all that.”

“I suppose you boys aren’t here for a social visit?” Lala asks, pouring them each a glass of water.

“I’d really like this to be, but we can’t.”

Ohya sits up. “Right. It’s not great.”

“Sources don’t have a lot of info?”

“It’s not that. The ones I can get in touch with are happy to talk about how their search for the Phantom Thieves won’t rest until they’re dealt with and explaining some of their procedures like setting up checkpoints in and out of the city. They’re also teaming up with some tech company to monitor phones and texts.”

“Lovely,” Akechi says, “things we could’ve already deduced. Do you have anything that isn’t coming from propagandists?”

“You can tell a lot from what people don’t say as much as what they do. They’re talking a big game, but only have Sakura-san’s arrest to back it up so it’s safe to say they haven’t gotten anyone else. They’re focused on the major areas, the subway, Central Street. Stuff like that. And they’re being flooded with tips, so even though people are happy to turn you in, they also don’t have time to go over everything.”

“So the mob’s working against them,” Akira says.

“Right,” Ohya winks. Then she gives Akechi a pointed look. “And I still have some inside info. Like apparently Shido’s been fighting with this one government agency for awhile now, blocking funding and access for them. They’re called the “Shadow Ops,” and Shido is putting a lot of effort into getting them out of the way.”

“And how is that helpful to us now?" Goro asks.

“Enemy of my enemy,” Akira suggests.

“Well if we can figure out how to get in touch with them that’ll be fine, but it’s still more trouble than it’s worth.”

“What is your problem?" Akira snaps.

“My problem is we’re wasting time! You’re supposed to be the leader yet you can’t conceive of the bigger picture.”

“Akechi you’ve been shot.”

“Stop pretending you’re holding back for my sake,” Akechi says, rolling his eyes. “We could go into the Metaverse right now and get this healed. You just can’t do anything without your ragtag bunch of misfits around to sing your praises.”

“Then why don’t you go.” Akira asks. “Why haven’t you left? Is it because after we played you like a damn fiddle and you were betrayed by your boss you realized you might not be as strong or as clever as you thought?”

Akechi crosses his arms and glares at Akira. “Fine. You’ve got me. I don’t think I can take Shido on my own. I could use your help. Yours. But the others are superfluous, we don’t need them.”

“The others have saved my life on more than one occasion, and they’ve saved yours before too. One week, and we go in and fight like hell, but since you need me and you kinda owe me for that little ‘attempted murder incident’, we’re doing it on my terms when we’ve found as many members of my team as we can.”

“Does the thought cross your mind that gathering them all in one place might just be putting them in more danger?”

“I have to know they’re safe.”

They stare daggers at each other.

Akechi gives in first, getting up with a huff. “If you have any useful information, Ohya-san then please let me know. Until then I’ll be waiting outside.” He strides out the door, and lets it slam shut behind him.

“I’m sorry about that,” Akira says to Ohya and Lala, who he’s just realized heard that entire conversation.

“No problem. You okay, kid?”

“I’m fine. Any other news?”

“Not really. I can tell you that the police have the big public areas covered, but I doubt you’ll be going to any concerts any time soon.”

“Nah. But seriously thank you, this’ll help us plan our movements.”

“Stop by tomorrow, I’ll see if I have anything new for you.”

“Actually, do you mind if one of my friends does it? She’s closer at the moment.”

“Sure, just tell me what to look for.”

Akira gives Haru’s description, thanks Lala again, then heads out.

“Are we done?” Akechi asks.

“One more stop in Shinjuku.” Akira leads Akechi a few blocks down to Chihaya’s booth.

“Akira! It’s good to see you!” Chihaya says.

“Hey Chihaya. We’re here for a reading.”

“Do you know everyone in this city?” Akechi mutters.

Chihaya lays out the cards in front of them. “Do you need a specific reading?”

“Can you give me a reading that’ll tell me where my friends are?”

“I’ll do my best!” Chihaya says. She flips the cards over one by one, and there’s a familiar sensation like something snapping. Even Akechi seems caught off guard by it. Chihaya looks at the spread and frowns. “Hesitation will be your undoing, but don’t be reckless. And I’m not sure about the nine of swords, something to do with Gemini?”

Out of the corner of his eye, Akira sees the way Akechi’s eyes widen at that, then he quickly cools his expression again.

“That’s all I can see,” Chihaya says.

“Thank you.” Akira says, getting up.

Akechi walks back towards the train station quickly, and Akira trails behind. He pauses at the sight of a familiar blue prison door.

“Hey inmate!” Caroline says. “You wanna go in?”

Akira considers it, but shakes his head. He doesn’t want to see Igor right now. “Hey, Caroline, how much do you know about stuff that’s going on. You obviously know more than I do.”

“Well duh! How’re we supposed to help with your rehabilitation if we’re as clueless as you?”

“Then do you know where my friends are?”

Caroline’s grin fades. “W-we couldn’t tell you that even if we did know!”

“Alright, thanks.”

“What are you waiting for?” Akechi calls.

Akira waves at Caroline, and runs to catch up with Akechi.

~_~_~_~

After parting ways with Akira and Akechi, Haru at least takes a little joy in the familiar weight of Morgana in her bag. When they arrive in Aoyama-Itchome, Haru hangs back in an alleyway as Morgana pops his head out of the bag.

“Alright, wait until there aren’t as many students leaving, then slip around the back way there.” Morgana says, helping Haru slip in the same way Akira had been getting up to the roof to meet her while he’s presumed dead.

Her first stop is her vegetable garden. Despite everything, her babies have been growing pretty well.

“It’s too bad we can’t bring the whole thing,” she says picking the tomatoes and pulling up the carrots.

“We can see about starting a garden at Takemi’s,” Morgana offers. “There’s one windowsill that gets a lot of really nice sunlight, even in the winter. I like to take naps there, but I’m willing to give it up for your vegetables.”

“Aw, thank you Mona-chan,” Haru gives him a pat on the head before bagging up the rest of her vegetables. “You’re up next.”

Haru slips out the back and heads back to the alley, watching the school until Morgana comes out, Kawakami trailing behind him.

“Hey, slow down kitty, I’,- Okumura?” Kawakami stares at Haru taking in her new hair and clothes. “So that is Kurusu’s cat?”

Haru smiles and picks Morgana up, helping him back into the bag. “Yeah, he’s a very smart little guy.”

“So does that mean Kurusu’s alright, at least?”

“Yes. But we still need to find the others.”

“Any way I can help?”

“Do you have Shiho Suzui’s address?”

Kawakami’s eyebrows furrow in confusion, then she seems to understand. “Oh yes, I suppose that makes sense. I should be able to get it. Hold on.”

Kawakami walks back into the school, and ten minutes later comes out with a sheet of paper. One has an address on it, the other has a phone number.

“Here you go. And if you need anything, give that number a call and ask for Becky. I’ll know it’s you and be right over.”

“I can’t ask you to get more involved in this,” Haru says.

Kawakami laughs. “I’m already neck deep in the Phantom Thieves business. You’ve helped me and so many others, and more importantly, you’re my students. It’s my job to make sure you’re all safe.”

Haru holds the sheet of paper to her chest. “Thank you. Your support means more than you know.”

“Let me know if you need anything.”

Haru grabs a tourist map from the train station and follows the address Kawakami gave them. The Suzui residence is a nice small house near one of the smaller parks.

“Ready to go Haru?”

“Yep.”

Haru knocks on the door, and a middle aged man opens it. “Hello, who are you?”

“I’m here to return your cat!” Haru says, holding Morgana up to the man’s face.

“We don’t ha-” Morgana leaps out of Haru’s arms and runs into the house.

“Oh, I’m so sorry!” Haru says.

The man curses. “Stay here,” he says, running after Morgana.

There are more voices, and then…

“Morgana?”

“Lady Ann! So you are here!”

“Ann!” Haru calls, running in the direction of the voices. She finds an open door leading downstairs, and the man from earlier is there, along with Ann, Morgana, and a girl who must be Suzui, who immediately steps in front of Ann protectively.

“Who are you,” Suzui demands.

“Shiho! It’s fine, this is Haru,” Ann says, “she’s part of the team.”

“Haru Okumura?” the man— Suzui’s father, probably— asks.

“Yes, we’re so sorry for the disturbance,” Haru says.

Mr. Suzui waves her off, and then pinches the bridge of his nose. “It’s fine, I guess. Would you like some tea Okumura-san? You and Ann probably have a lot to catch up on.”

“That’d be great, thanks!” Ann says. Haru nods as well, and Mr. Suzui heads back upstairs. Once he’s gone, Shiho shuts the door and Ann gives Haru a hug. “Good to see you! I thought you booked it for the countryside!”

“A little misdirection on my part. It’s a bit of a story.”

“We have so much to tell you!” Morgana says.

“I’m sure.” Ann says, picking him up.

“So, I’m guessing this is the famous Morgana?” Suzui asks.

Morgana perks up. “Oh? You told her about me?”

“How could I not,” Ann laughs, “I mean you’re kinda important to the whole story.”

“I’m important!”

“Wow, you can really understand him?” Suzui asks, stepping closer.

Haru nods. “Yes. How much has Ann told you?”

“Everything, pretty much,” Ann says. She and Suzui share a look, before Suzui pulls up some bean bag chairs.

“C’mon, sit. I’m sure things must have been crazy for you guys.”

“That’s a bit of an understatement,” Haru laughs. “But do you want to tell your story first?”

Ann nods.

[annieoftheshitposts]

this post used to be a link to the old canons page but i’m turning it into a text dump of the revised one for people on mobile [or who have bad wifi/computers that the fancy schmancy script on the canons page wouldn’t play well with.] theres a lot sorry not sorry. here we go.

Canon Info

 Much more is said about Annie in external sources than the game itself, here's copypastes of all I know of and go by.

From the 3rd DLC Character Voting page:

As popular figures in nationwide folktales, a children’s television adaptation of Annie and Sagan’s adventures was inevitable. The show’s success lies in its pair of live action hosts, who are as convincing as their cartoon counterparts. Though what the public learns about the real Annie might surprise them. Annie is a seasoned fighter who has been around for a long time, acquiring many skills and powers along the way. Her sword is forged from a meteorite and can channel the power of the stars in its sweeping cleaves. Her right eye bonds her to her Remote Parasite and partner, Sagan, who grants her powers of a galactic motif. While some of her abilities carry more of a sparkly magical girl motif, Annie tries to execute them with the same sternness.

From "The canon info thread" on Skullheart Encore forums:

-Annie is several-century-old. Her immortality was gained when her parents wished on the Skull Heart so that Annie would never have to experience the hardship of adulthood, thereby making her forever a child. -She has had many different weapons and abilities throughout her life. - Sagan, her remote parasite. keeps her right eye in his mouth. - She’s physically not able to swear due to her condition - She is familiar with Double due to her experience fighting Skullgirls - Annie has encountered a lot of Skullgirls and has killed a lot, but not the same a lot. She’s seen the cycle multiple times and seen how they become stronger each time and is looking for the underlying source now. - The Annie of the Stars show is very similar to the Super Mario Bros. Super Show with live action segments with cartoons and PSAs and commercials in between. - Sagan can talk. Somehow. - Annie hides her immortality by getting a new hairstyle every few years. The show tells the audience that they have simply changed the actress. Eliza also pulls a similar trick

and finally some other misc. scraps that weren't covered above:

-annie has some kind of "super" or "powered up" form, in which she seems to fuse with sagan. it can be seen on her

move concept sheet, in the end of robo-fortune's story mode, and as a very tiny feature on one of robo-fortune's merch posters, but to my knowlege it's never really been talked about.

-she's been depicted with an "incognito outfit", presumably for going out in public and not being recognized by fans.

-sagan is named after renowned astrophysicist carl sagan. this isnt really relevant to anything but it's not on the wiki so i figured i'd share :b

-and this random pic of annie in the past with a different look, plus gun and minus eyepatch, apparently official art from the "digital art compendium". i haven't seen the source for this one myself though, and count this one more as speculative canon since that ingame image up there with her eye uncovered doesn't show a scar or any kind of damage from this.

-another canon fact about annie is she is strong and brave and i love her.

Headcanon (Annie)

this is pretty disorganized bc i come up with and revise random shit on a fairly regular basis, but the very least it should be all here and up-to-date. [though on this text post version i may forget to keep it updated oops.

she can still only normally see from the one eye in her head [and likewise probably has terrible depth perception lmao], but she can “project” her vision into the one sagan has if need be, during which time both he and her main eye are blind.

even though sagan’s vision is his own and she doesn’t actively “see” through that eye most of the time, the stuff he sees still becomes part of her memory and she can recall it if need be, though it’s far less tangible and kind of a surreal experience trying to do so.

the space where her other eye was is now just...space. like empty starry void stuff. yes, TECHNICALLY, you could put stuff in it but why would you. sagan can feel when something interacts with it and it’s really just weird and uncomfortable for both of them.as sagan is the source of their powers, the strength of her abilities is slightly dependent on her distance from him. something like long sustained flight is really only capable if they’re touching, but she still has ample firepower and ability to zip around for a pretty good range otherwise.

Not interested in anime

absolutely hates being called her full name; hasn't gone by anything other than "Annie" for longer than anyone that should be alive today should know.

part of her curse of eternal youth is remembering everything up until the point it kicked in and she stopped aging [i.e. when she was Actually a kid] exactly as well as if she hadn’t aged.

from that point however, a lot of it is hazy as shit aside from more recent times [as you’d expect from someone who’s been around hundreds of years]. this one's gonna be angsty as shit when i address it and you can thank @sandstriker for that. fucker.

also hates being restrained. by the concept sheet and beo's story, her fighting style is very kinetic and relies heavily on mobility; take that away and you get one very uncomfortable and very angry starchild. [this one's 'cause of y'all with the handcuffs asks. this is part of why she's so agitated rn.]

what's in the pouch? whatever is alternatively convenient. is it snacks? is it a quick incognito disguise? is it her whole entire sword? who knows. i think it might be infinite hammerspace in there.

i haven't put much though into this side of her story yet, but i've decided part of the mythos of the "annie of the stars" character as a figure of legend is that she literally lives, among the stars.

if there's enough folktales about her to base an entire show off of, i'm willing to bet she used to be less elusive when she was just about fighting skullgirls before dedicating herself to the whole "looking for the underlying source" thing.

Headcanon (Sagan)

tl;dr: as far as things go here, he's essentially a cat and/or younger sibling.

Sagan's canon information and characterization is basically nonexistant, so i got to do pretty much whatever i wanted with him lmao.

simply put, he's a little gremlin of a partner, but he is genuinely good-natured and a happy-go-luckly little dude. mischevious, loves to get up to Shenanigans, go off and hide/disappear to fuck knows where for several hours, climb and sit on tall things[or failing that, annie's head], etc. @sawkinator has described him, regrettably accurately, as "the Token Disney Animal Sidekick". he has a lot of mannerisms like an animal, but is still very much a being of at least average human intelligence. he's also surprisingly indestructible. far from invincible of course, but in canon he's been shown to be quite stretchy and...possibly have minor shapeshifting capabilities?? he's pretty much immune to being squashed and feels very little [if any] pain from most things. really, as far as i can tell he's pretty much a weird sentient plushie. like, if it's not going to damage a plushie, it's not going to hurt him; examples being: getting knocked back really hard or falling a long way? not a problem. fire? problem.

Sagan tends to be somewhat nonverbal and generally only uses a few words or short phrase at a time when he does speak, which sounds something like the voice clip below. that being how it is, he can be kind of inscrutable and more than a bit jarring to most people--though at this point annie's been with him more than long enough to be completely desensitized to it and doesnt quite get why anyone would be perturbed. fortunately, with that familiarity also comes understanding, and she can easily "translate" and articulate more from his expressions. this understanding is a two-way street, and on its other side is sagan's sensitivity to her moods. annie's not particularly...communicative of her emotions, but sagan can always tell when she's having an off day or something's bothering her, and is far better than anyone at helping her feel better. all things said and quirky antics aside, he and annie are exceptionally close and fiercely protective of eachother the moment it comes to it. they don't make a big deal of showing it outwardly, but they know they've always got eachother's backs.

he's taken quite a liking to beowulf as well, and beo defintiely shamelessly enables sagan's shenanigans.

as i see it, annie may be the passion and power of their operation, but sagan is the heart and soul. beowulf is like....comic releif and emotional support. not entirely necessary, but certainly welcomed to have around. yeah. listen im a big sap i just want them all to be good friends ok. i love them.

also sagan does like and watch a lot of anime.

Blog Canon

miscellaneous happenings that either have continued relevance/significance, or y'all just won't let die. there's not a overarching plot to this thing at all, but geez we’ve kinda gathered some history here huh?

taught sagan to say fuck [and other swears, in her stead]. he used to have to do it on command but he's gotten really good at filling in for her.has a

stoat fursona that beo helped her make. she thinks it's neat/cute but has no real attachment to it.

attempted to sue the crystal gems for ripping off her entire shtick [it didn't go well]

beowulf also taught her how to dab.

@sparkeletran is a nuisance and must be stopped

the 70$ pile of high school musical merch. sagan and beo both wear the t-shirts sometimes. she hates it. don't let her attitude fool you though this is actually the best and most important ongoing joke in this whole damn thing.

the first handcuffs stint. they’re gone now but they had a good ~30-post run, and she did take to learning lockpicking because of it.

this.

hey. guess fucking what lads. handcuffs ROUND TWO 'cause y'all just don't fuckin' quit. the first mini story arc sorta thing, in which she visits the cirque des cartes and has an aggravting encounter with taliesin. [currently ongoing][hopefully soon ending]

[[redacted for ""spoilers""]] due to said encounter with taliesin

sparkeletran is a nuisance,

"the official annie of the stars instagram is just cat memes but with sagan" it's canon but i haven't decided whether it's something she would have had already or a recent thing. [either way, hasn't been touched on yet due to the arc taking so long]

badart annie is sorta like her own thing at this point but nothing that happens with her is canon; she p much just shows up for exceptionally dumb posts. we did give her noclip though which is terrifying. on that note i may as well include the things that are Not canon but y'all won't let me forget

beo's animated belt thing. look. it doesnt talk.

spray-on boots.

the lawnmower weapon

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh homestuck

Hockey-Playing Trump Supporters: A Sourced List in Progress

This post is the actual list, unlike my previous post which, as I should have said more clearly, was meant more as a signal boost/information gathering sort of thing. Thanks to everyone who’s helped so far!

IMPORTANT: This list is still in progress, and will be updated consistently. Always trust the version of the post that you see when you click back to my blog, not older/outdated versions you might see from reblogs or comments. If you have newer/better info please send it to me here, at my sideblog, or on this anonymous SurveyMonkey poll, with links or screenshots included if at all possible. Thanks a million to @highstik , who gave me tons of great info, as well as everyone else who’s chipped in!

I have erred on the side of caution in putting people on this list. I don’t want this to be a witch hunt of people whose political beliefs are different from mine-- I think there’s a lot of space to disagree on political issues, but loudly supporting Donald Trump in spite of his racist, xenophobic, misogynist, Islamophobic, ableist views just because his policies will benefit you personally is not something that’s acceptable to me. However, to avoid casting the net too wide I’m not going to include people who have solely liked pro-Trump posts or followed pro-Trump people-- those are both things that people could do for a variety of reasons, and I think it’s risky to make assumptions about people’s political beliefs based on them. The same holds true for people whose spouses support Trump.

I’m also not going to include people who I can’t find receipts for on the main list-- if someone was cowed enough to delete pro-Trump stuff because of public outcry I have no way of knowing whether they had a genuine change of heart or they just didn’t want to deal with the fallout, so again I’m erring on the side of caution. Here’s the TL;DR version of the list of definite Trump supporters; links, sources, and borderline supporters/mythbusted supporters are below the cut.

TL;DR list, sorted alphabetically by last name: Logan Brown [OHL], Tony DeAngelo [AHL], Max Domi [ARI], Jack Eichel [BUF], Nathan Gerbe [SNL], Scott Hartnell [CBJ], Robin Lehner [BUF], Rebecca Russo [NWHL], Teemu Selanne, Kelli Stack [NWHL], James Wisniewski [AHL]

People I’ve seen on unsourced lists who I’m still researching (please send links if you have them!): Mark Arcobello, Laurent Broissoit, Alex Debrincat, Patrick Eaves, Alex Goligoski, Ryan Miller, Derek Ryan, Cam Talbot, James Van Riemsdyk

                                            Active NHL Players

Max Domi [ARI]: "Game day socks [with Trump’s face on them]. Make America Great again." Check the second source for another family member saying  that it was “a joke,” and that Tie and Max “don't know anything about politics nor do they care cuz we are Canadian.” His snapchat is also apparently pretty Trumpy according to one anon (x), (x)

Jack Eichel [BUF]: [RT] “I'm big on "to each his own" if you disagree that's completely fine.But whoever is President I respect and root for because he is our leader” (x), various gross likes

Scott Hartnell [CBJ]: “ Mr. Trump-your plane is landing in 45 mins in Columbus and some of the #CBJ fellas would love to meet ya!! #legend (x)

Eddie Lack [CAR]: I don’t have a great translation of it, but he basically said that he wouldn’t have wanted to vote for either candidate, but would have “leaned towards” voting for Trump (x)

Robin Lehner [BUF]: wore a goalie mask with Trump’s name/face on it, expressed support for his anti-immigrant policies (x), (x)

NWHL/CWHL:

Dru Burns, CWHL, Boston Blades: she retweets a lot of openly pro-Trump stuff on Twitter, like this (x)

Rebecca Russo, NWHL, NYRivs: wore a Trump shirt on Instagram (x)

Kelli Stack, NWHL, CTWhale: “First Lady Melania Trump sounds better than First Lady Bill Clinton,” blocked someone for calling her out (x) 

Former Players/Non-NHL Men:

Logan Brown, OHL: [RT] “TODAY WE MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN”, various awful likes (x)

Tony DeAngelo, AHL: “Tough time streaming it on the plane but it was nice to get to watch the inauguration! Loved it! #MAGA,” also his entire social media presence basically (x) 

Nathan Gerbe, Swiss National League: “The people have spoken [US flag]” (x), MAGA sign on his dogs’ Instagram (x)

Brendan Lemieux, AHL: [RT] “TODAY WE MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” (x)

Tyler Parsons, OHL:  “TODAY WE MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN” (x)

Steve Racine, ECHL: posted this picture of himself with a cutout of Trump with the caption “Proud to be an American” (x)

Teemu Selanne: "Trump was the better option for America right now. He was the lesser of two evils." (x) 

James Wisniewski, AHL: “Congrats, Mr. President!! Bring your broom cuz, it’s a mess!” (x)   Players who may be quiet Trump supporters, or who don’t meet the threshold for the main list but may exceed your threshold for awfulness:

Brent Burns [SJS]: I said this list wouldn’t include people who are just following shitty people, and he hasn’t publicly tweeted about politics, but I’m making an exception for him because he follows basically no liberals and every horrible conservative in the book, including Trump, Kellyanne Conway, Tomi Lahren, Hannity, O’Reilly, Pence, and several others

Ian Cole [PIT]: has liked at least some shitty things on Twitter (one vaguely pro-Trump, the others just nasty conservative stuff), retweeted a mealy-mouthed “we should all respect the new president” thing but then deleted it (x) Erik Johnson [COL]: [RT] “FORD INVESTS IN AMERICA: Cancels 1.6B Mexico factory; $700M to Michigan”, liked a Trump tweet, follows Trump (x), (x)

Seth Jones [CBJ]: follows Trump and Tomi Lahren, and liked an IG post that said “I’m voting Trump/Pence” (x)

TJ Oshie [WSH]: from an interview with Modern Luxury DC, “Oshie has already played Trump National and Congressional Country Club. "I felt like a superfan, taking pictures at the clubhouse," he says, laughing.” (x) [Note: I moved Oshie down to this part of the list because that article is from November 2015, before Trump really ramped up the awfulness. Feel free to disagree!]

Tyler Seguin [DAL]: said he would like to have pizza with Donald Trump (to talk about Tom Brady???), but I’m sort of inclined to think it’s more because he’s a moron than because he holds any actual political opinions. Watch the vid and decide for yourself, I suppose. (x) He also follows Tomi Lahren on Twitter.

Alex Tuch: liked this post (x), follows Trump, dressed as a border patrol agent for Halloween

Ryan Whitney: “The 45th president in our nations history will be sworn into office and I will support him because he is our leader and I love our country.”  (x), (x)  People who have appeared on Tumblr pro-Trump lists for whom I’ve found no evidence or questionable/minimal evidence (e.g. following Trump with no other political indicators, liking but not sharing pro-Trump stuff): -Jordie Benn (liked an IG post that said “"Yesterday made history and so did I staying up until 3 am for politics. Our nation has spoken: President Donald J. Trump #MakeAmericaGreatAgain #Trump" (x)) -Nick Bonino -Robert Bortuzzo (follows Trump) -Tyler Bozak (liked Mark Cuban’s tweet that said "We all need to give President-Elect Trump a chance. Support the good. Lobby against what we disagree on. No one is bigger than us all." (x)) -Courtney Burke [NWHL] (liked some anti-Kaepernick/BLM stuff, but nothing explicitly Trumpy) -Andrew Copp (liked a transphobic Tomi Lahren tweet (x)) -Brandon Dubinsky (follows Trump) -Aaron Ekblad (follows Trump, stayed at a Trump Hotel? That’s all I got, folks) -Micheal Ferland -Thomas Greiss (liked but then unliked a post likening Hillary Clinton to Hitler, per this German news article (x)) -Noah Hanifin (is probably someone I disagree with on a fundamental level, but has kept politics in his likes) -Stephen Johns (follows Trump, one person told me he retweeted a pro-Trump election day thing but has since deleted it) -Seth Jones (follows Trump, Tomi Lahren) -Hillary Knight (I’m getting conflicting reports about her having liked/shared pro-Trump stuff, but if there was anything there she’s since deleted it, and she was also photographed with a pro-HRC thing, so make of it what you will) -Auston Matthews (liked Ryan Whitney’s "I'm big on "to each his own" if you disagree that's completely fine. But whoever is President I respect and root for because he is our leader” (x) ETA: more recently liked this post criticizing Trump’s immigration policies (x)) -James Neal (follows Trump) -Alex Nylander (liked this post (x)) -Brett Pesce (follows Tomi Lahren, FOX News) -Dylan Strome (followed but then unfollowed within a few days several Trumpy people on Twitter, according to one anon person) -Ryan Strome (follows Trump) - Matthew Tkachuk (Liked a tweet that said “there’s one Donald Trump viewpoint we can all agree with,” but the vid in question was Trump talking about Zoolander, so I don’t think this counts as a political statement)

On Bethesda’s Creators Club

Alright, so this is a half rant and half explanation (with the knowledge I currently have on Creator’s Club, which I’ll be short handing out to “CC”). Anything I list is subject to change as the program rolls out this summer. For a few points, hopefully they are changed. Currently, people are spreading a shit ton of misinformation about it. If you wanna be angry and direct your rage at Bethesda, that’s absolutely fine - we need to call out companies when we think they’re doing something unethical, shady, or anti-consumer, as well as expect change from it - but at least let it be an informed rage, not blind and led by internet hearsay.

(Skip until the next notice if you already know about the paid mods fiasco years back) 

A little bit of backstory and context here - a few years back, Bethesda and Valve tried out paid mods. On the Skyrim Steam Workshop, modders who were checked out and given the green light by Bethesda could put up their mods (both new and pre-existing, taking them down from other free modding platforms if they wished), and put them on a new section of the workshop for sale. They could range anywhere from $0.99 (US) to $3.99, as I remember. A few I can recall were a fishing mod from Chesko, some weapon packs (pretty lame and comically overpriced), and I think Frostfall, a hardcore survival mod, and more. The modders would get paid (a rather paltry percentage) of every sale, and Bethesda and Valve would pocket the rest. Pushback against this was almost universal, though the reasons varied.

Some inherently disagreed with the concept of charging money for mods, as it goes against the spirit of modding (something I agree with, to a point), as well as taking down previously free mods from sites like the Nexus only to turn around and slap a price label on them. Then there were those who thought the mods were DRASTICALLY overpriced – to the point of being insulting (also me). Lastly, there were those who didn’t inherently push against the concept of paid mods, but disliked how little the mod authors were being paid for their work, with most of the profit going directly back to Bethesda and Valve (I’m all over the place, but I also saw the argument there, too). Within a couple of days of non-stop death threats and the most inflammatory response they could have imagined, Bethesda backed out and shut it down, apologizing and probably trying to push Fallout 4 out the door A.S.A.P. to help people forget about it. Valve, surprisingly, was adamant. They admitted it was a mistake, but doubled down that they’d like to try it again sometime. It was a mess all around. I think the pushback was good, and the genuine discussion (not the mindless and disgusting vitriol spewed, like death threats to Bethesda and Valve employees over a game) was good, and more or less needed to happen. But it’s looking like we’ll be having more of that discussion now and in the near future.

(If you skipped, read on from here)

Well, now Bethesda’s coming back with it. Kind of. It’s a very different situation, and one that I’m skeptical of, but at least seems much better than their first attempt at it.

At their press conference Sunday night, Bethesda revealed what they called “Creator’s Club”, a new program for their website/modding service Beth.net, for both Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition. As you might know, mods are now available on both PS4 and Xbox One through Beth.net. The way they framed the program was confusing and left more questions than answers. They seriously shot themselves in the foot with a damn Gauss Rifle by not elaborating more on it. You have to go to their website and read their FAQ to get the details you want, and the internet’s already started the misinformation wagon. It’ll take a miracle for it not to be dead in the water by the time it comes out just due to sheer internet outrage culture.

Lemme go over a few points of the program and how it’s different than the paid mods fiasco. Or at least, what I’m getting from their FAQ. Do have a healthy level of skepticism, and be ready to call them out if they don’t hold up to their promises.

·         The way it works, is you’ll be able to pull up the store front in game, and browse their selection of mods, and be able to purchase them with a digital currency known as “Credits” (I will ignore this name and continuously call them Bethesda Bucks). Packs of this currency can be bought through the Xbox Live Store, PSN, and Steam. Once you buy a “mod” (?), and activate it in-game, it will instantly be applied. No having to exit the game to apply it. Does this mean a large set of updates will be needed to keep the content available? Is it similar to on-disc DLC?

·         They’re not taking in hundreds upon hundreds of amateur modders to reupload old content of theirs onto the program. This is much more like a job application. They specified they’re basically looking to make a smaller dev team, and want professional artists, programmers, designers, and more. They’ll also be looking for the best modders in the community with a history of quality mods to join the team, and you’ll have to send in a resume alongside previous work in a portfolio for them to judge.

·         Currently existing mods on other sites such as the Nexus, Steam Workshop, and Beth.net itself will not be taken down or ported to CC. They’re looking to make entirely new exclusive content, and no pre-existing mods may be put into the program.

·         There’s already “a number” of Bethesda employees and developers on the team to help create the content. While they will no doubt be there for supervising purposes, the FAQ also claims they’ll be working with the newly hired Creators to make new projects. They claim all content will be compatible with the base game and other mods, go through localization, and quality assurance (granted, Bethesda’s QA).

·         This is less a point of explanation, but a question I feel needs posing, and its own point. Are these even mods? I mean, we did see a “pack” that added Dwarven Armor to Mudcrabs (ugh), but depending on what else is made, is it less modding, than it is DLC? Or “mini-DLC”? It is being curated by Bethesda’s devs, and these “modders” are less modders and more part-time to maybe even full time employees. If a quest mod for Skyrim is made, will it be checked and have consultation from the ES lore team? Will it have voice acting from Bethesda’s pool of voice actors? There’s way too many questions right now, and Bethesda needs to clarify if it’s coming out so soon.

That’s all that I could gather from their FAQ. Do keep an ear out for any changes, and hold Bethesda to their word. So, go forth with this info, and have this discussion – on paid mods, on what a mod is, or what DLC is, if this is against the spirit of modding, or not. It’s one we as an industry, and as a large collective community, need to have. Personally, I’m going to wait and see CC for myself, then make my judgement. I’m not inherently against the idea of a side development team continuously making content for Fallout 4 and Skyrim, provided it is good content, and is fairly priced. I just really, really hope the selection of content (dear god I’ve had to say content so much in this almost borderline essay) isn’t indicative of the quality and selection we’ll be getting when the program goes live. I really, really hope it isn’t, because there’s honest potential to this to get larger and better projects out the door with proper funding.

Thanks for sticking through this jumbled mess of writing, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

(If you’re a modder especially, thank you for your work and making these communities such fantastic places. Keep it up, and keep improving!)

However, it’s highly addictive. We spend one month playing it, and we can’t stop. It the first thing we check when we get up in the morning and the last thing we do when we go to bed. This is a reliable indicator that game is excellent age groups.

[what-is-sibling-test]

More Garcy authors wanting to do kiss prompts??! I think I’ve died and gone to heaven! Ok, take your pick from 7, 72, or 75.

I’ll see about also getting 72 and 75 done, but here’s 7 for you in a combo platter with 52 requested by an Anon.  Set sometime in early 2019, and have some bonus Riya feels? ~~~~~~~~~~ 7: “I’ve missed you kiss”/52: Accidentally witnessed kiss The best and worst thing about the Alaska safehouse was its remoteness.  Getting anything up there was a pain, and very specific technological equipment wasn’t exactly easy to just click and ship from Amazon.  After two weeks round-trip with Connor to find, purchase, and then get parts getting shipped up from Seattle, Jiya was about ready to crack some skulls if any of it got damaged en route.  She’d waited long enough to get the final parts to complete this Lifeline update.  Rebuilding the Lifeboat piece by piece, then repairing the damage from the Great Chicago Fire mission, and now finally taking it painstakingly slow, checking and testing every single part put in.  They were in uncharted territory again, like when they first built the Lifeboat and made those first forays through time.  The last thing any of them needed was to get turned into goo by doing it wrong. Denise and Garcia, meanwhile, had made their own foray out east to DC.  Shaking the federal agent trees, as usual, to see what latest info might drop on Rittenhouse.  They’d gotten back to Anchorage only an hour or two after Jiya and Connor, and loaded up the bush plane, Garcia grumping as usual about folding himself into the tiny seats, especially with the load of supplies.  Wyatt, Jessica, and Lucy apparently had kept busy binge watching “Black Sails” and “Breaking Bad” in the meantime. After dinner she headed out to the warehouse, eager to unload the crates and get started.  Connor would be along soon after a nap. She opened the door, and saw the gym portion of the building was occupied.  Lucy and Garcia, busy at their sparring practice.  No big deal.  Their all-purpose gym/storage shed/Lifeboathouse/workshop inevitably meant sharing that common space.  The rules more or less amounted to “first one into the warehouse gets to pick the music”, “don’t be a dick”, and “wipe down the gym mats and the bag if you sweat on them.”   They didn’t seem to notice her as she slipped in, headed for the Lifeboat.  He’d been a good enough teacher to her own half-formed skills from the 1880’s, and she’d seen Lucy could kick some ass now out on a mission, because she’d taken to learning with a vengeance.  Her bruised and swollen face after Chinatown was all the explanation Jiya needed there.  She’d known what it was like to be an untrained, vulnerable woman herself.  Lucky she’d found some friends in that time and place to help look after her until she got tougher, before she became just another statistic.  Though they wouldn’t have actually kept the crime statistics on that side of town. “You’re still dropping your guard sometimes when you kick,” Garcia told Lucy.  “What, you want your clock punched?”  She wouldn’t laugh.  Her parents had screwed up their English idioms often enough.  Anyone who wants to make fun is welcome to revel in monolingual ignorance. “No, I don’t want my clock cleaned,” Lucy corrected him calmly, snapping a quick kick at his left knee.  He dodged aside from it, saying something to her in Croatian that had her snap something back in the same language, even as he swung a punch at her.  Equally light-footed, she skipped aside from it and threw her own punch into the space he created, which he blocked and countered.   Sitting at the desk, Jiya turned to the schematics, reviewing it with the mental inventory in her head of the newly-arrived parts, cross checking.  Lucy made an exasperated sound in the back of her throat.  “You’re half-assing it today, Garcia.  Quit it. You know I can take it.” “Lucy, I’m wounded.  Have you ever known me to half-ass anything?”  Jiya couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Sarcastic comment from Garcia, even if only overheard: check.  Quota done for the day. She heard Lucy’s snort of amusement. “Fine. I stand corrected.  Garcia Flynn: one hundred percent ass, every time.”   “I see you missed me,” he chuckled.  “I’m not going easy, Lucy.  Just jet lagged.  Denise and I spent sixteen hours between planes and airports.  It’s a four time zone difference.”  Jiya could imagine.  She’d been tired enough from the West Coast flights.  Funny how they could skip merrily through the centuries, seasoned enough now that only Wyatt still got dizzy sometimes, poor bastard, but the fatigue of mundane airplane travel still undercut them just the same as everyone else. She glanced up to see Lucy bouncing lightly on the balls of her feet, guard up, rolling her head from side to side to keep her neck loose.  “Poor thing.  Well, just do your best to try to keep up.”  She threw a quick right jab. Sliding aside from it, fingers raking through his hair, Garcia laughed, a sound of sheer delighted joy like Lucy was the best thing he’d ever seen.  “Don’t go easy on me, now.” That was that, and then they were sparring in earnest, and some of it was the same tactics Garcia had taught her. Bad news is a man’s going to be able to beat you on reach and power almost every time.  Good news is most men tend to be big dumb buffalo who go for the wild overkill punches.  Leaves you a wide open counterattack.  Focus on evasion, focus on coming in from the side and finding that opening.  Use quick and focused strikes, use your kicks, elbows, knees, whatever.  Get in, hit, get the hell out of reach again. Lucy was doing that, nimbly dodging his attacks, darting in for an attack of her own and then back out, but he was fast too, making himself an elusive target in return, turning her attacks aside, leaving virtually no break in his guard.  The two of them circling, dodging, dancing in and out of range, acting almost flawlessly in concert.  She had the odd sense that something had shifted, and they weren’t trying to hit each other so much as just turning around and around in an ever-tight circle with each other as the magnetic north, teasing and chasing in a game of tag that was anything but childish. She’d seen them waltzing a few months ago in Zurich when they’d been chasing after Mileva Marić and Albert Einstein, all highly formal white tie and beaded evening gown, and there was something of that same air between them now, even with the two of them sweaty and in gym clothes.  Most people thought the waltz was a romantic ethereal dream, but she’d seen why that original faster-paced Viennese waltz had scandalized the Victorians with the exuberant energy and intimacy of it. This was–something like that, something with those few layers of formality stripped off, whose pulse beat a little closer, a little more raw.  And Garcia most definitely wasn’t always leading the dance.  That sense of back and forth on taking charge, call and answer, one of them responding instinctively to a change in pace or a new move was too familiar.  Like a gathering thunderstorm, friction building and building the electrical charge until it sparked, ready to explode.  Private as those two were about it, she had the weird feeling she could now guess a bit more about their sex life than she’d have liked. Jiya wasn’t sure whether Garcia pressed at just the right moment or if Lucy deliberately misstepped, but she saw the moment Lucy lingered a moment too long inside of his reach.  Then he’d snagged her with an arm around her waist, pulling her in, other hand lighting on her shoulder, dark head dipping as gave a victorious laugh and kissed her soundly.  Lucy’s arms went around his neck, raising herself on her toes, giving it right back to him measure for measure. Then something flipped again between them, and Lucy broke off the kiss, brushing his cheek with the backs of her fingers, touching her forehead to his.  His own hand came up and gripped hers, dropping from his face but still holding on tight, the interlacing of their fingers an oddly gentle contrast to the fighters’ handwraps they were both wearing.  Lucy murmured something, and he answered in a soft rumble.  She couldn’t hear clearly, but she couldn’t help but try to guess.   Maybe: So you did miss me.   Of course.  Or Always.   She remembered that feeling, that tenderness.  What it felt like to hold on so tight to each other when Rufus came back after a mission, that bright fierce joy of reunion, unable to let go.   Being so content to drink in the feeling of simply standing there in each others’ arms with that little gentle sway, breathing in each other’s scent, feeling each others’ heat and heartbeat.  Closer than anything, closer than sex.  Being adored, cherished–loved. She slipped out from the warehouse, leaving them to the moment.  Not out of bitterness, only not wanting it to be awkward if they’d realized they’d had accidental company. Maybe it would have hit her with melancholy months ago.  But she couldn’t resent her friends finding that kind of happiness, given how much they’d both lost.  They were close.  They’d get the Lifeline done.  She’d see Rufus again soon, and take him in her arms just like that, and never let him go again.

Why Sit-Down Meetings with Managers Are So Important

Do you have manager meetings? I’m not talking about the passing-in-the-hall quick conversations, but actual sit-down meetings where you focus on moving the business forward? If you are having sit-down meetings, do you think they are effective?

 You must have sit-down manager meetings to make sure you get your message across in a manner that everyone understands so that they can execute what you want done how you want it done. These kinds of meetings facilitate communication and where you get things done.

 I know what you’re saying to yourself: “David, I meet with my managers almost daily, and they still don’t do what I want.”

 When you say that to me, I’m going to tell you very quickly, the “meetings” you’re having with your managers, where you stop them in passing, those are not a manager meeting. And worse, those “meetings” lead to more problems.

 A true manager meeting is scheduled on a weekly basis. It’s not a five-minute tirade over what didn’t get done at closing the night before. It’s a weekly, scheduled time, set aside to review goals, expectations and challenges and then brainstorm solutions.

 It is also mandatory.

 To begin having effective restaurant management team meetings, follow these seven steps:

 Plan properly and ahead of time

Make attendance mandatory

Collect info for the meeting and create an agenda in advance

Stay on track

Facilitate and communicate

Assign specific actions

Take notes

 Step 1 – Plan

 This is the step where you look at last week’s priorities and goals and audit where they are. Did they get accomplished, did you hit your goals or were there things that happened that delayed results? Take the time to really look at things with a detailed eye.

 Meet with your general manager and communicate the goals for the next week. Gather your general manager’s priorities. This is your opportunity to make sure your general manager is on the same page as you. You are also setting the general manager up for success to conduct an effective and efficient managers’ meeting.

 Next, create your list of goals for you and your team for the upcoming week. Be specific and clear in the list of what you want done, how you want it done, how well you want it done and more importantly by when. Without deadlines, nothing would get done.

 SIDE NOTE: Step one applies to every restaurant owner whether you have a partner or not. The only difference is when you have a partner, this step becomes even more important.

 Too often in independent restaurants, partners don’t communicate. As a result, they send mixed signals to their employees and managers because they ask them to do two completely opposite things or get the same thing done two completely different ways. Or worse, they do this directly in front the employee resulting in an argument/fight between the partners.

 This is the quickest way to get your employees to tune you out and then do whatever they want. The employee knows that they can just point fingers to the other partner and there will be no recourse.

 If you have a partner this is the most important step because it puts you both on the same page, allowing you to all communicate the same game plan from the same playbook.

 Even if you don’t have a partner, you can create a similar challenge when you continue to change your mind on how you want something done, telling one manager and then getting mad at another because they aren’t doing it the new way, even though they never got the message.

 Step 2 – Make it Mandatory

 If you want to ensure attendance, make sure everyone understands the meeting is mandatory. Do your managers a favor ad make sure to switch up the days of the mandatory meeting so that the same employee isn’t coming in on his or her day off. Every. Single. Time.

 You can still set this up on a regular schedule so everyone can plan to attend the meeting, but rotate the day of the week when you have the meeting.

 An example might look like this: Owners meet on Tuesday allowing the general manager to complete the budget variance reports for the past week so the owners have the numbers.

 On Wednesday, the owners and general manager meet to get on the same page and set the agenda.

 On Thursday, the general manager conducts the managers meeting.

 Step 3 – Create Agenda and Collect Data

 Whether it’s you or your general manager who will create the agenda, use your list of goals for the week, to create the agenda for the meeting.

 The agenda should include such things as a start time and a finish time and topics to be addressed as well as who is responsible for addressing each topic.

 Make sure you have your numbers and appropriate reports, such as your prime cost targets, key item report, waste sheets, marketing materials, etc. Have everything ready so when you hand out the agenda, everyone has everything they need to be successful.

 Step 4 – Stay on Track

 Be sure to stick to this agenda. If and when a NEW topic comes up, make sure you determine if it should be tabled until the next meeting or if you need to set up a sidebar meeting after the manager meeting. Do not add it on the fly. When you don’t control the topics, start and stop time, manager meetings go forever. They should only run 60-90 minutes. Anything longer than 90 minutes frustrates managers because they feel you don’t value their time, and they start tuning you out.

 Step 5 – Facilitate and Communicate

 One of the biggest questions I get all the time is, “I’m the owner, shouldn’t I conduct the meeting?” The short answer is NO, unless you fulfill the general manager role as well. Your general manager is supposed to execute the plan. He or she is going to be held accountable for these goals, so you need to put them in a leadership role and demonstrate that the general manager is the other managers’ direct supervisor.

 When conducting the meeting, the general manager should only be talking about 20 percent of the time and clear expectations must be laid out. This is because your managers have come to the meetings knowing what they are responsible for because you have assigned them their duties in step three. They will have brought the correct information from cost of goods sold, labor costs, employee issues, project updates, etc. They should present to the group on their areas of responsibility. You want every manager engaged and participating in the meeting.

 Step 6 – Assign Specific Actions

 Break down the steps for what needs to be done and who is going to be responsible for each step. Assign deadlines and benchmarks because you want to delegate effectively, helping everyone on the team to be successful.

 This is part of communicating your expectations clearly, helping everyone on the team understand what needs to get done, how you want it done and by when.  

 Step 7 – Take Notes

 Assign someone to take notes and then distribute the notes to everyone. This keeps everyone focused on moving forward. No one has an excuse as to why they didn’t get their part done because it was recorded and circulated.

 If you’re tired of things not getting done, tired of not making the money your restaurant should be making and/or tired of being frustrated daily with everyone’s performance — owner or manager — then you’ll want to follow these seven simple steps. Just remember it’s not only about being organized, it’s also about being consistent. This comes from conducting the managers meeting weekly.

 This way, next week you can measure. That which we measure improves.

Shattered (Part 11 of ??)

I didn’t want to wait to post this part any longer. It was incredibly exhausting to write, way more so than I expected. Also I think it’s the longest part I’ve written to date. I think that’s because I wanted to avoid the mob with pitchforks if I cut this off in the middle. This is the last of the heavy parts for now. As always, please wait to read if you’re in a bad spot right now, and PLEASE text the Crisis Help Line at 741-741 if you need help. They’re available 24/7.

The bad part about owning a house? Yard work. I spend most every Saturday working on some task that needs to be done. Today, it’s mowing. That takes most of the morning before it’s finished.

Just as I cut off the mower’s engine, Drew pulls up in the drive. “You look like you’re having fun.” He grins.

“Piss off. You could have came over earlier and helped.” I toss my sweat soaked towel at him.

“Hey! Now is that any way to greet the guy who brought over pizza for an epic gaming session?” Drew opens the backseat door to reveal 3 large pizzas, still warm. I laugh as we head into the house.

“I suppose that’s an acceptable bribe to get out of yard work.” I grin as he sets the boxes down on the dining table.

“Hells yeah. You gonna dig in?” Drew’s already opened the first box and is carefully separating a piece.

“Yeah, let me just go get Star. She didn’t eat breakfast. Hopefully, this might tempt her appetite.” I murmur before heading up the steps.

“Starlight? You busy? Come eat lunch, babe.” I knock on her slightly ajar door, peeking in as it slowly drifts open. No sign of her. Just a half finished sketch on the floor.

Wait… is that…? “Star? You okay? Can I come in?” No answer.

I push the door open further. “Babe, I’m coming in. I need to make sure you’re… Shit! DREW!”

Oh God… the sight of her body crumpled there on the floor is one that will never leave me. I scramble to her side, kneeling down beside her and checking for a pulse immediately. It’s faint… but it’s there at least.

Heavy pounding up the stairs alerts me to Drew’s presence. “What’s wro… damn it!” Drew yells as he catches sight of Starlight. “I’m calling 911.” He yanks his phone out of his pocket and starts dialing.

“Go grab some towels,” I order him. “We’ve got to try to stop the bleeding.” He nods and dashes to the bathroom, already relaying info to the operator. “I need you to talk to me, okay Star?” I move to roll her over only for her to weakly try to push me away. She mumbles something I can’t catch before letting her arms fall back down.

“Stay with me, babe.” I murmur, brushing her hair out of her face. “You’ve gotta fight. For me. Please.” Drew brings me two towels and I wrap them around her arms as tight as possible, holding them in place even as she tries to pull away from my grasp.

Drew kneels down beside me, checking her pulse as well before relaying info to the operator. “ She’s conscious but very lethargic. We’ve got her arms wrapped and pressure applied. How long before the ambulance gets here?” He covers the phone and tells me the medics are about 10 minutes out. I just nod, keeping my gaze on her face.

Before I know it, the paramedics are rushing into the room and taking over her care. They have her on a stretcher with IVs started in seconds. I can’t focus on anything but her pale face. What could have happened to make her do this? For her to lose so much hope?

I watch as they take her down to the waiting ambulance, following close behind. Drew places a hand on my shoulder. “They’re taking her to St. Luke’s.” He hands me my phone. “Go with her. I’ll take care of things here and meet you as soon as I can.” I nod and watch as they load her in.

“Can I ride with her? Please?” I beg one of the paramedics. “I need to be there…” Something on my face must have convinced him because he motioned for me to climb in, jumping in after me and slamming the door. I settle in a jump seat out of the way and watch as the medics stabilize her en route to the hospital.

God, she’s so pale.

I don’t understand. How could I have missed the signs? I know she’s struggled with this in the past, but I thought everything was okay. Was it just an accident? Or was she trying to take her own life?

“Sir? Sir?” I jerk, breaking free from my thoughts and look over at the medic trying to gain my attention.

“Y... yes?” I swallow, wiping my palms on my jeans.

“I need some info from you to help your friend, okay?” I nod. “Do you know what happened?”

“Not really. I found her on the floor of her room with… like that. I couldn’t really wake her up, so I wrapped her arms to try to slow the bleeding down and give you guys a chance to get there and help her.” I scrub my face with my hand. “Is she going to be okay?”

“She’s stable for now. We’ve got the bleeding under control until the doctors can stitch her up.”

“Will she need a transfusion? I can donate.” My focus drifts to her still form. I can’t help but brush more hair out of her face.

“I will let her doctor know that when we arrive.” The medic watches us for a second. “Are you two... close?”

“Yeah... she’s my best friend..." I close my eyes. “She has to be okay. I can’t...” I won’t cry. I won’t cry. I have to be strong. For Starlight.

We’re at the hospital within minutes, the paramedics unloading her and relaying info to the doctors taking over her care. I follow her as long as I can before a nurse stops me. “I’m sorry, sir. You can’t come back here.” She’s kind about it at least. “The waiting room is right over here.” She shows me into a small room filled with chairs and promises to come get me as soon as she has an update.

I collapse in a chair against the wall, unable to stop the tears from falling any longer. Damn it! Why is this happening? I should’ve checked on her before lunch. Or got her to come outside with me. Or... something. Anything. If she...

No. No. I’m not going to think about that. She’s strong. She’s a fighter. She’ll be okay... she has to be okay. If I lose her... I don’t know what I’ll do. I can’t imagine living in that house without her now. I can’t imagine my life without her. I don’t want to imagine a life without her.

I don’t know when Drew, Katie, and the rest of the group showed up. I only know that they did. Katie sits beside me, rubbing my shoulder. Drew holds Emma in his arms as she cries into his chest. Jess stares off into space, I think she might be praying, but I never hear her speak a word. We’re too afraid to voice what we’re all thinking.

How did we miss the signs?

Why did she resort to this?

What if she doesn’t survive?

Someone clears his throat. “Family of Lillian Black?” We all stand up in a huddle, finding a doctor clad in scrubs watching us.

“How… how is she, Doctor?” I ask, trying to keep my voice from shaking. “Is she��?”

“I’m Dr. Alexander. She’s stable. We managed to stop the bleeding and suture the lacerations.” She tells us. “We’re going to want to keep her for a few days for observation just in case.”

“Can we see her?” Katie pipes up before I can ask. “Please?”

Dr. Alexander nods. “You can. Follow me.” She turns and leads us down the hall, showing us into a room with dimmed lights.

We all stop short as we see Starlight propped up on the bed. She looks so weak, laying there hooked to monitors and IVs. Both her forearms are wrapped in bandages. How close did we come to losing her?

I’m the first to head to her side. I carefully stroke her hair, needing the touch to reassure myself that she’s still here. ‘Babe, you awake?” I murmur as everyone else gathers around her bed.

Her eyes flutter open as she looks up at me. “Hi.” she whispers.

“Hi.” I try to smile but only succeed in letting a few tears drip down my cheek. I can’t take my eyes off of her. She’s here. She’s alive. All I want to do is wrap her in my arms and never let her go.

“You gave us quite a scare,” Drew says, making her turn to look at him. “I was so worried we wouldn’t get you help in time.” He’s still got an arm wrapped around Emma, who’s clinging to him like a lifeline.

“Get me help?” Starlight echoes.

Drew nods. “You, um, you cut your arms pretty badly tonight. Deep enough that we had to get you emergency help.” He indicates the bandages.

She doesn’t say anything but looks down at her hands, picking at her cuticles.

“Why, Lils?” Katie asks, voice wavering. “What happened? Why didn’t you tell us you felt like this again?” She’s on the edge of tears herself and Ben moves to her side, hugging her gently.

“I’m sorry!” Starlight wails. She’s becoming genuinely distressed at this point, shrinking into herself as much as she can. The noise brings a nurse in to check on her.

“I think it’s time to let her get some rest.” The nurse tells us gently. We all agree, and one by one, everyone hugs her before slipping out of the room. I’m the last one left.

“Can I stay with her?” I plead, my voice cracking. The nurse glances from me to Starlight before nodding and leaving us.

I perch on the edge of her bed and take her hand in one of mine. “Babe, what happened to set this off?” I ask, my eyes begging her to tell me.

She sighs. “I ran into Darren when we were out dress shopping last week. He said some stuff and I…” She breaks off mid-sentence as her eyes fill with tears.

“Shh, shh. It’s okay.” I reach to wipe her tears away with my free hand. “I’m right here.”

“I’m sorry!” She cries. “I just felt so much like a burden, and that I was pulling everyone down with me.”

“Never,” I promise her. “You’re never a burden to me. And you never will be.” I rub my thumb over her knuckles.

“How do you know that?” She asks. “How do you know you won’t change your mind?”

“I won’t. I’m always going to be there for you.”

“You can’t promise something like that!” She pulls her hand away from mine. “Look at me! I’m useless!” She slumps back against the pillows. “Why would you even try to save me? I’m not worth it.”

“Because I love you, damn it!” I blurt out.

She freezes, before breaking into laughter that quickly turns into tears. “I must be dead. There’s no way this is happening.” Her eyes radiate the pain she feels, and my heart breaks more. “You can’t love me. It’s not possible.”

“Oh yeah?” I challenge her before leaning in to capture her lips with my own, pouring everything I feel into a gentle kiss. She stiffens in shock for a second before sliding her arm around my neck to pull me closer. It felt like it lasted forever and yet all too soon, we pull apart.

“Do you believe me now?” I rest my forehead against hers and watch her eyes frantically search mine, for what I have no clue.

“Are you sure I’m not dreaming this?” She asks hesitantly, and I shake my head.

“Very sure. It wasn’t exactly the way I wanted to tell you but screw it. It’s out there now.” My heart is pounding as I ask the next part. “Do you think you might feel the same?”

She’s silent for a bit, watching me. Fuck. I’ve screwed up now. I move to pull away, but she refuses to let me. “I….” she starts, before faltering.

“It’s okay,” I reassure her, feeling my heart sink. “You don’t have to say anything.” I look down at my feet.

“No, Jeremy…” She whispers softly. “I… I love you too.”

I jerk my head up, not believing my ears. Did she just… well, damn. “Yeah?” She nods. I smile before leaning in to kiss her again.

When we separate again, I gently trace a finger down the gauze wrapped around one arm. “Babe, what brought you to this point? What happened that affected you this badly? That you thought you had no other choice?”

“He… he said I was a slut and an attention whore… that no one cared about me unless I did something for them... That I should go ahead and just…” she sighs. “Kill myself so no one would have to deal with me any longer.” Her voice hitches. “That I’d be doing the world a favor.”

“Oh baby, c’mere.” I pull her into my arms as she sobs, holding her close. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I couldn’t.” She mumbles. “Was afraid he was right after all.”

“No, baby.” I lift her chin to meet my gaze. “He’s wrong. So wrong.” I take a deep breath before continuing. “When I found you laying there, my heart stopped. I was so scared.” My voice cracks. “I thought I had lost you… it shattered me. I can’t…” I have to stop to choke back tears.

“I don’t care what’s going on, even if it seems like the most trivial thing on the planet, You can always come talk to me. No matter what. Just, please… no more of this, okay?” I cradle her arm in my hand, bending down to press a gentle kiss on her bandages. “Promise me.”

“Promise.” She yawns. “Will… will you stay with me?” I smile and shift to lean against the pillows with her still cradled to my chest. We’re probably breaking a hundred hospital rules, but right now, I could care less. I press another kiss to her forehead before murmuring in her ear.

“Always.”
