FELLAS.

IS IT GAY.

TO LITERALLY.

DIE.

FOR YOUR BEST FRIEND?

Hank went evil, but not evil enough to let Simon Williams die.

"This is for you, Hank."

AND THEY'RE FUCKING ROOMMATES???

Simon making him and Hank tea is so very cute. I really like the vibe that he keeps teabags, it feels right. I wonder if it's chamomile, that is Hank's favourite. Now, I'm very curious about the pictures shown behind so I'm gonna talk about this for a bit because I'm both obsessed and insane.

This first one is clearly from the Joe Jusko Simon, which I think is a cute little reference but I'm puzzled on why Simon would have that on his wall, but whatever.

This one also seems to be a photo of himself, but I'm less sure about where this one might be from. Either way, continuing the trend of "Simon has a bunch of pictures of himself on the wall", which is hilarious.

Now we come to these two. The first one could very easily be Simon also, but the second one is curious to me. I actually think it's referencing this photo Simon is shown having in Dark Reign: Lethal Legion, which is something that is making me insane.

Like. despite everything. Simon still keeps a photo of him and Eric from when they were kids in his house. Despite having moved multiple times in the last few years, he's kept this with him throughout it all. Eric's dead and has been some time and Simon has a picture of his big brother and him on the wall in the house next to all his superhero stuff. I'm fine 👍👍👍

sorry you're not getting any intelligent thoughts out of me for the next 7-12 hours

Arkady is so big I love him—

Also the fact he’s still holding onto Sage.

After some much needed post-battle rest, Gorgug is still left with one mystery to solve. How the hell is he supposed to figure out Mary Ann’s phone number? First, he asks Fig for help since she’s apparently on lime level. She laugh reacts to his message and tells him she has absolutely no clue what Quokki Pets is but she’ll meet him at Basrar’s.

Fig offers to Wanda Childa Mary Ann to try to get more information out of her and Gorgug practically begs her not to. They agree instead to request Adaine’s research expertise. Adaine sends them a bulleted list of Quokki Pets facts including where to find the game. The three of them meet at the Elmville mall to see if Mary Ann actually left her phone number there. Adaine starts mage handing copies of the game over to Fig (disguised as an employee) who opens them to see if there are any notes inside. Gorgug purchases a copy for himself. Maybe actually playing the game could be a good idea (and impress Mary Ann if that’s even possible). 

After being booted from the store, Mary Ann’s number still eluding them, they consider that finding Mary Ann’s profile could help. They enlist their tech genius, so Riz shows up with his equipment ready to go. He hacks into the Quokki Pets message boards and finds a high level user located in Elmville with the name Mangostrawb. Gotta be her. So they look through her posts on the message boards and mostly just find her showing off her Quokkis, leaving scathing comments on non-optimized builds, or occasionally dropping tips for new players. After scrolling through dozens of pages, they’re positive Mangostrawb is Mary Ann but that’s still not exactly helpful.

They finally call it quits for the day and go their separate ways, vowing to keep helping Gorgug get to that bench. Late that night as he’s embarking on his Quokki Pets journey, Gorgug gets a text from an unknown number. He opens it. “you don’t just get quokki pets. they come to you”

Gorgug sighs and puts his crystal down. She's so fucking annoying.

And so hot.

You cannot look me in the eyes and tell me this man is not divorced

He is the most divorced dad to ever live. This man is oblivious in all sense of the word and blindly loves his children. This man thinks their interests haven’t changed changed since they were 7 and goes along with whatever they say. This man is the girl dad and has worn a tiara and played imaginary tea-party. This man tries to tell his children off before he just lets them get away with it because he’s tired and the kids are cute. This man is trying. This man is so divorced.

PENELOPE FEATHERINGTON MAKING COLIN BRIDGERTON THIRSTY 😩🤍

[raevulsix]

Small peek into a WIP I was working on…✨

[radiocurrency]

Daniel interviewing Lestat in S3 for his next book and making an offhand joke about how Lestat is the only one here who hasn't had his fangs in him.

Lestat replies very flirtily that he could remedy that.

Louis AND Daniel both have to talk Armand down from where he has Lestat suddenly pinned by the throat to the wall.

Armand lets him go only for Louis to then slap Lestat with a rolled up newspaper like a naughty puppy acting out

[starofhisheart]

Armand calling Daniel a hole can be something so personal

[wonderbeast]

That sounds, um, terrifying.

His power signature is fucking pink. I haven't won in so long.

As far as Beast moments go, the implication that Hank just booked it directly to L.A like some sort of Simon Williams-based homing missile. has gotta be up there

“For how long have you had feelings for him?”… Lord the way they keep making Eloise this non-observant clueless friend to everyone is crazy to me… especially continuously with Pen (and now Cressida also). She never fathomed that Pen could want to participate in ton events, want to be married, want to have even the bare minimum opportunity to be entertained by a man, and yet anytime Pen goes against anything Eloise always talked about she’s so surprised?? Maybe if you talked with your friends instead of at them we wouldn’t be running into this situation continuously El…
