Okay, All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade is out in the states, so time for a listen and a rambling track by track reaction. I'm listening to the whole album through and writing my thoughts, and then listening to it once more and adding any other observations.

I've already heard Run Run Run, and like I said before, it feels very classic Carl track. It's very catchy. I think I have the same complaint as everyone else, which is that it feels over-produced. No one should autotune the Libs, the whole point is that they're a bit wonky. Also I don't like that they've fucked with the equalizer and the vocals sound weirdly muffled? Also, upon this listen-through, this song reminds me a little of Frank Turner, which is a weird musical callback to like 2012. My favorite thing in any song is when the instrumentals cut out and it's just drums and vocals, so I love that as the ending of the song. This whole album has so many varied cultural references which I find very entertaining. Does Peter yell "Get your pants off" or "Get your hands off"?

Already I like the lyric to Mustangs A LOT. Feeling a Lou Reed influence there. Love Peter's high-pitched backing vocals and also the Pigman reference. I really love Libs songs where it's just a little scene set to music. And this is exactly that, in such a good way. Again, not a fan of the mixing. What is it with producers these days and mixing so shittily that the vocals get lost in the background instruments, and everything gets muddied? I had the exact same complaint with the last Manics album. Anyway, love the little jokey bits at the end. The second verse about the nun is such fantastic imagery. (Lastly, I thought it was Mustang, singular? But it's plural on Spotify?)

I Have A Friend has an AMAZING chorus I love it. Also that solo guitar bit from Carl right after, I literally could see him hopping up and down in my head. Love Peter's rolled R's. Okay, upon listening the second time round I really really really like this song. The lyrics are incredible. I think they're my favorite on the album. Social commentary but also absolutely beautiful and amazing imagery.

Merry Old England has a bit of a Hamburg Demonstrations vibe to it, which I love. The further I get into this song, the more I love it. It's such a creative and sarcastic critique of Tory policies and all that. Again, I've criticisms about the mixing. Also the pretty violins makes me miss Miki Beavis's wonky violin in Madres, which I think suits Peter/The Libs way better. Still, they add a nice touch.

Ohhh I love Man With The Melody, the clear pretty vocals. I like that each of the Libs have their own verse, that's so cool! Fuck the autotuning though. I really like this song. Melodically it sounds like a sequel to Milkman's Horse, and thematically a sequel to Fame And Fortune. It sounds like a "reply" or a look back at Anthems. Very pretty, with the lovely piano and minimalist guitar.

Hahahha Oh Shit! feels soooooo early 2000s American pop, in a fun way. It reminds me of something but I can't quite put my finger on it. Something that was on the radio a lot in like 2003 or 2004 maybe? This is clearly a Fun Song, like a slosh your drinks around while dancing all goofy type song. Peter's "And that was the news today" at the end is so silly. I think this track is my least favorite but it is fun.

I already know I love Night Of The Hunter. Firstly because anything that uses the Swan Lake motif has my heart instantly. But also because I love the lyrics, I love when Peter writes songs about noir-type vignettes. Finally, some good shared vocals that aren't drowned out by instruments. Gosh, I love the lyrics of this song, I love the dual meaning in that it is technically about an actual noir film but could easily be talking about Peter's past as well. I really like that the lyrics get priority on this one and the instrumentals are pushed back in the mix with the Swan Lake motif coming forward sometimes. It feels like it needs that minimalism.

The guitar on Baron's Claw is already great from the start. I hear Peter's taking a leaf out of Daniel Darc's book with the close-in breathy vocals, which I'm so into because since I learned about Daniel Darc from Peter and Frederic Lo I've actually fallen in love with his music too. Melody-wise it's very close to The Glassblower from the Fantasy Life album, which is my favorite song off that album, so I'm not surprised I like this song too. I like the story in the song and I like the jazzy brass and piano and Peter's vocals. It feels like it's being sung in a smoky jazz bar. This one is so good.

Shiver is sooo catchy. I find myself humming it sometimes at work even though I haven't yet absorbed all the lyrics in my memory. This is also the real "Libertines mythology" song, so of course it's good. The fact that the lyrical subject matter is made up only of criticizing the monarchy and talking about specific Libertines lore is just so them. It's so short, though! I wish it were longer!

The guitar on Be Young is so chaotic lol. It reminds me of Horrorshow a bit. Okay, actually this whole song is chaotic. Melodically, lyrically, it sounds like they were crashing around in the studio while recording, which is very fun. The random calypso bridge bit is so....random! I like it, just a surprise in terms of musical style change. Suddenly they're the Clash! A fun way to pay homage to influences, I think. Also Carl yelling "Woo!" and then collapsing into a cough at the end is really really funny.

I can definitely hear the early-ness of Songs They Never Play On The Radio. You can tell the scaffolding is there from that early set of Libertines-to-Shambles transition songs like East Of Eden/Love Reign Over Me/Merry Go Round etc. I really really like the guitar on this one. And the vocals are so nice. Again I don't like the mix, where Peter's voice is a bit overtaken by the muddiness of the backup singers and instrumentals. But I do like this song a lot. The lyrics are pure Libertines mythology. Ahahah the dogs howling! The bit of acoustic and messing about and chat, I really like that. I think it's a really lovely ending to the album, just a glimpse of them obviously being friends and having fun. It's like a beautiful reply to the question "What became of the likely lads?"

As I've only listened through the album in full twice at this point, I'm sure my thoughts will change over time. But at the moment I think my favorite is torn between Night Of The Hunter and Baron's Claw. I Have A Friend and Songs They Never Play also are just so lyrically good. Least favorite is definitely Oh Shit. I'm excited to see which songs grow on me and in what ways.

Celestial NATO))

Hermes: can't believe you had the balls to challenge the Jade Emperor

Wukong: not my proudest moment

Loki: at least you didn't get stuck to a rock and held by your children's intestines

Hermes: imagine if you tried taking my father's place in Olympus

Wukong: now THAT'S ridiculous

((Hera and Athena would have been the biggest obstacles tbh))

Wukong has learned from experience that it's not the King but the Queen you gotta be worried about. After he nearly killed the Jade Emperor, Xiwangmu almost turned him into fried monkey lips (actual item served at her birthday peach banquet) until the Buddha intervened.

Wukong: "At least since the whole Azure situation, I now know if I had won, I would have been torn apart and like mega-super-dead. And by that point I was already slow-cooked for 49 days in an oven." Loki: "You'd be torn like pulled pork." Hermes: "I once ate part of a guy's shoulder [Pelops] and can confirm. Pork." Wukong: "I was gonna ask how you know that, but then again I used to be friends with a literal cannibal pigman."

Their convos run off topic a lot. Chaos gods + adhd does that.

[bumblebeerror]

I need everyone to know that I love the utah ending more than life because yadda yadda new chapter for Wilbur, a return to the nonsense funny haha roleplay blah blah blah

But also. Also. Also it means that Phil, giant birdman Phil, the literal husband of the death goddess Philza Minecraft, at one point probably lived in Utah and that image ALONE is enough for me. I need a 55k fic about Philza Minecraft Angel of Death with giant ass crow wings wandering around Utah and running a gas station with his son and the people who see Phil with his giant ass wings are so totally unfazed. He just sits behind the counter going hai m8 :) and people go oh what a normal amount of unhinged guy. Nice.

But ALSO because Wilbur made canon that the MCC skin he joined the server in, the orange ocelots one that Techno, Phil, and SeaPeaKay all had, IS HIS GAS STATION UNIFORM, which means the Utahans ALSO got to see a giant hulking pigman and a Fox run a gas station together and this is my FAVORITE THING YOU DONT UNDERSTAND.

I just adore the idea that Wilbur used to be the most normal looking guy in the most bizarre gas station in the middle of the utah desert. Just let me have this okay

His Lovely Rose - Chapter 9: Rock, Paper, Scissors

Previous. . . . Next Chapter. . . .

——————————————————————————

Beerus looked over the Z Fighters, making everyone stay on edge. Suddenly, Beerus’ eyes landed on someone, someone rather unexpected. “I see you, pink pig creature, trying to hide behind that old man. Please step forward, you’ve been selected.” Beerus announced as he pointed at Oolong, who was behind Master Roshi.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the poor soul Beerus chose as his competitor. 

“Huh?! Wait, you mean this pink pig?!” Oolong questioned, pointing at himself. “Of course he means you, Oolong! You’re the only pig on this whole ship, aren’t you?!” Yamcha exclaimed. “Y-You mean 'pig' in a literal sense?” Oolong noticed the others were slowly and quietly stepping away from him. “NO NO NO! GUYS, DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE WITH HIM!”

“Pigman! Don’t you belong to the same species as that larger pink pig that wouldn’t share his pudding with me? Isn’t that correct?” Beerus questioned, referring to Majin Buu. 'Beerus, dear. . .that literally means nothing.' Brier told him telepathically. 

'How so? Elaborate.' It took nearly every fiber in Brier's being to not roll her eyes. Even if he 

'There would need to be more proof of that, otherwise it's complete nonsense. That would be like me pointing at Ms Bulma and declaring that we're twins because we both have-' 

“No! We’re not even related a little bit! You only think we’re from the same species because we’re both pink and chubby!” Oolong exclaimed, getting Beerus and Brier's attention back to him. 

Brier let out a tired sigh and flew to her husband’s side, and began to whisper in his right ear. "Beerus, just what do you plan on doing with him?" "Isn't it obvious? I'm going to challenge him to a fight." Beerus revealed. Brier raised a brow at this. There was no way in Hell the poor pig would survive something like that. With just a flick of a wrist, Beerus could paint the deck of the ship red with the pig's blood if he wanted. So she decided to make Beerus challenge him to something else that the pig could handle.

". . .Ok. Beerus, dear, this may seem a little odd, but how about challenging him to a game instead?" Brier suggested. "A game?" Beerus asked, intrigued. This made Brier smile ever so slightly. She still thought it was cute that games could get him so excited.

"So what games did you have in mind?" 

"I'm afraid that I don't know. You can choose whatever game you desire." she told him. 

Beerus perked up at this. "Whatever game I want?" he asked. "Yes. And no, before you ask, you cannot challenge him to an eating contest." Brier told him. "That poor soul wouldn't know what he'd be getting into in that situation, what with your black hole of a stomach." Beerus let out a sigh and said, "Alright fine. I'll choose something else." After a few seconds, he whispered his second choice in Brier's ear, which made her widen her eyes in disbelief.

"Are you sure you want to play that game?" she asked him. "It's a bit childish, don't you think?" "Now Brier, you said that I could choose any game that I want. And I want to play that game." Beerus answered with a sly grin. 

With a sigh and muttering a faint 'very well', Brier looked at Oolong and announced, “Congratulations good sir, Earth's chance at survival is now up to you.”

“Huh? Me, really?”

‘Yes, I can’t believe it either.’ Beerus silently thought. “You see, today is your lucky day. Provided that you’re good at Rock, Paper, Scissors!” Beerus told him. “?” Everyone looked at the deity with confusion on their faces. Rock, Paper, Scissors? 

“Huh? Cat aliens play Rock, Paper, Scissors too?” Goten questioned. “Yes. It always amuses me.” Beerus answered. 

Brier noticed the perplexed faces of the audience, and getting rather curious, decided to read their minds to see what they were thinking. 

'I can't believe this.' 

'He can't be serious.' 

'We're so screwed.'

“Anyway, if your little round friend beats me, then your planet will be spared.” Beerus said, bringing his wife back to the present. “So all I have to do is win and you’ll go away?” Oolong asked, just to be certain. “Yes." both Beerus and Brier said. 

"However, if I win, I’ll turn your Earth to dust and embers.” Beerus added with a sinister look. “Now let’s begin. But if you’re not interested in playing with me, that’s fine. I can always just save time and destroy Earth right now.”

After hearing this (and by being pressured by the others), Oolong agreed to play. Oolong walked up to Beerus and Brier, who was on a stage, and the two started to play. Everyone watched with an intense gaze. "Throw on three, you got it?" Beerus said. Oolong nodded his head to show that he understood. Both raised their balled up fists and, on three, revealed what they had chosen. Beerus had chosen scissors. The Z Fighters looked towards Oolong to see that he had chosen scissors as well.

It was a tie. A pig had managed to tie with a God of Destruction. As Oolong and the other guests panicked, Beerus was trying to wrap his head around the whole thing. A regular pig tying with a God of Destruction? That was unheard of. “Be Honest. Did you throw yours a second late?” Beerus asked.

“WHAT?! Heck no, I wouldn’t do that to a god!” Oolong shrieked. “It just seems odd.” Beerus said. “Hang on, if I threw late, why would I bother when I can just win outright?!” Oolong questioned.

“He does have a point, Beerus.” Brier told him. “Yes, I know. It wouldn’t make sense.” Beerus reluctantly agreed. "The point is, there can't be a tie. So let's just try again. Got it?"

So they tried again. It ended with the same result, with the two of them landing on scissors.  

Then they tried again.

And again. And again. And again. This whole ordeal had made the others tense. Brier herself began to worry that if they continued to end with a stalemate, then Beerus would just lose his temper and destroy the planet anyway. She could tell from the way he took a deep breath before challenging the pig again. 

"It's time to get real." "WAIT! What does that mean?! You're scaring me!" 

Beerus didn't answer his opponent as he raised his hand to play the game one more time. "Rock, Paper, Scissors! One, two, throw!" And when it came time to reveal what they had chosen, everyone’s faces became pale.

Oolong stayed with scissors while Beerus decided to shake it up a little and chose rock.

“No, he lost!” Yamcha yelled. 

While everyone panicked and yelled at Oolong for choosing the same thing three times, Beerus had flown back into the air, with Whis and Brier following. “My lord, my lady, I’ve got our food ready for the road.” Whis announced. “Don’t think that Brier and I will split that with you. I saw you feasting down there.” Beerus told him.

“Haha, guilty as charged.” Whis admitted. “I just couldn’t resist. Now, we better head out before it spoils.”

“Right.” Beerus created a giant ball of  bright purple energy, casting a faint glow. He then aimed it at the planet’s ocean, specifically where the ship was at. The passengers watched, believing that there was nothing else they could do.

“What do you think, Piccolo? How about you, me, and everyone else hit him with everything that we’ve got, all at once, do you think we’ll have a shot and buy everyone some time?” Krillin asked him, getting desperate. “No, it wouldn’t make a difference.” Piccolo told his friend.

Everyone looked up at the purple ball of energy, none of them can believe that the cause of their demise is so close to them. And to make it worse, there was nothing that they could do to stop it. Everyone braced themselves for death, waiting for Beerus to just get it over with. 

"This is the end of your story." Beerus declared. "Goodbye forever, Planet Earth." 

“Stop right there!”

The Z Fighters looked to see that it was none other than Goku. Everyone became relieved that he was here. This meant that they had another chance for survival. 

Beerus, Brier, and Whis were stunned to see the Saiyan had returned. "Do you think he's back for a rematch?" Beerus asked Brier and Whis. "Most likely." "And to protect his loved ones from facing destruction." Whis and Brier said respectively. 

From what they could see, Goku was swarmed with questions as to where he was, but he ignored them for the most part. His attention was on the destroyer god up above. “Well well, look who’s returned. And with good news I hope. Did you find this Super Saiyan God that I’m supposed to fight?” Beerus questioned.

“Sorry Lord Beerus, still no idea on that. But in the meantime, can you please not blow up the Earth?” Goku responded.

“What do you mean? I must. I beat the pigman at Rock, Paper, Scissors fair and square.” Beerus told him. “Huh? Wait, you really decided the fate of this planet on Rock, Paper, Scissors with Oolong?” Goku questioned. 

“So what? We all know that you’re not strong enough to stop me from doing what I want.” Beerus said. “Yeah, you got me there. You’re stronger than me in every way.” Goku was scratching the back of his head, trying to think of a solution. It didn’t take long to come up with an idea.

“Hey before you destroy the Earth, let’s take a chance and test something!” Goku said. This piqued Beerus’ attention. “What do you suggest?” 

“Like I said, I don’t know who or what a Super Saiyan God is, but there has to be a way to bring one here. And I know just who we should ask.” Goku told him. “Just give me a little time to put this together, ok?” Beerus looked at his wife and attendant. Whis didn’t seem to care much for this, while Brier had this look on her face that suggested he should at least consider.

“Should I really?” he asked her. “It wouldn’t hurt to try, now would it?” she responded. He looked back at the Saiyan and said, “Alright. Just a little bit of time.” The ball of energy he created went away. “Ok, thank you!” Goku exclaimed. 

“How can you find someone that you’re not even sure exists?!” Vegeta shouted.

“I’m gonna ask our old friend Shenron for help!” Goku explained.

“Lord Beerus, you surprised me. I thought that you had given up hope on finding this Super Saiyan God.” Whis said. “I woke up after a measly nap for this. If there’s a chance that he’s not bluffing, I might as well take it.” Beerus told him. “My, how level headed of you.” Whis muttered, although Beerus didn’t seem to hear it as he went on to say,

“That said, this little reprieve that I’ve given them won’t last. If they can’t find this Super Saiyan God for me, I’ll destroy more than this planet. The whole solar system will pay.”

AN: So I checked and I have fourteen chapters left from AO3 to post on here. 😅

It'll still take a while to put it all here since I'm still doing revisions on Book One, and I'm still in the process of writing Book Two. Hope you enjoyed this chapter.

literally WHAT is the point of having a giant pigman as your friend if you aren't actively using him as a pillow??

[sketching-shark]

why do you personally like everyone's favorite pigman?

WELL besides the great body horror scenario that is Zhu Bajie's existence (high human immortal warrior gets exiled from heaven and cursed to be a literal pig yaoguai on Earth), I think that everyone's favorite Mr. Pig has some really neat implications going on both in how his development with the other pilgrims goes as well as to how his thoughts about his condition might have changed over the course of the narrative and even afterwards. There's something really interesting about a character who is undoubtedly the designated clown/cringefail loser of the group but who also acts as the voice of the bodily necessities that every living creature needs, and who's desire to go back home at every given opportunity is both infuriating in light of Everything but also really, really understandable. Conclusion: he may be the Idiot, but he's also a lot deeper than he seems <3.

ive just been, accumulating doodles and drawings of this undercooked zelda au of mine and i told myself i’d just post them already here’s the pitch: a green hoodie’d girl from a Modern Day Hyrule is pushed into adventure after her gal pal goes missing in the chaos of Ancient Hyrule literally invading from the past

deets n doodles under the cut

bit of a  gnarly sketch but like, you know -- that one zelda 1 piece. the idea is that the past and present have been melded together -- skyscrapers and metropolitan architecture fused with classic zelda fantasy elements

I like the idea of the two aesthetics clashing, but also the culture shock of two generations forced to interact -- even if its just turning Zelda tropes on their head a lil

A part of the culture clash is in the title, too-- a lot of the classic Zelda roles and cycles have been forgotten or eroded with time; at some point, the unending cycle of link and zelda vs ganon just...stopped, and the kingdom was able to move on and become something new.

But a Zelda caught in the transition phase of history marching forward acts with a little less wisdom than she should and uses Forbidden Magic to grasp time itself and craft a future more to her liking, where she isn’t a historical footnote for some bored teens to get bad grades writing essays about.

see because she doesn't want to be the forgotten monarch

Zelda is our antagonist, Ganon is a Chill Pigman, and with a different hero, our Link gets shunted to the support role.

taking a page from grimoire weiss the king of red lions, in the chaos of everything Link is rendered a spirit inhabiting a magitek gauntlet, where he can do little but guide our Hero Girl and complain when she silently sasses his guidance

and like, its a rad magitek gauntlet hes trapped in, so like, it can do cool item stuff too

naem can tell you this is something ive been chewing on for, months, though i...don’t really have anything concrete for it sdlhfk. It simply brings me joy ;v;

[doodlebloo]

& man I hate ppl that are like "Oh well Michael's a zombie pigman so eventually he's going to decompose and he'll never be able to actually grow up" like I'm sorry but this is Magic World. Yes technically zombie piglins don't age up in game. Technically, in game, everyone is incapable of sitting down. Is that also in your fic. & Also it's fucking magic world, why can people go to a magical floating land defeat a dragon and fight a box creature to get a pair of wings but they can't cure a zombie virus. + There's literally a way to cure zombification IN the game + L + Ratio + Michael_B has more fans than u do.

Listen, Zelda-Should-Have-Stayed-a-Dragon Arguers,

I know you’re just hans christian anderson in a zelda t shirt and im not buyin it.

This girl has seen enough. There’s nothing further lost by her staying a dragon. She already suffered 100 years of fully conscious pigman hell, the loss of everything she knew and loved, and her childhood. There is something gained by her defying the odds and getting out of the impossible. She gets to have her future without being changed beyond belief. Would it not be absolutely a bummer if the story was like

“ yeah so like Hyrule being founded at ALL? you can’t escape its mistakes, you can’t transcend it, you can’t move on past it. literally this kingdom being found it at all, will kill you and you were doomed from beyond time immeasurable. It was written in the stars that you would sacrifice yourself reactionarily due to some king’s poor leadership skills one time. Infact, its your direct problem now. Die for it”

Its okay that she isnt left tormented from being in an eternity of animalistic nothingness and honestly, this story would not be as good if she was lost! Its dumb she had to pull the weight for a father figure’s poor judgement, TWICE. She’s just tryina vibe and do nice things with people, bruh. Its chill. She can have a happy ending.

Is Johnny Sleazy or Lovely?: This is a Proud Family fan comic strip gag I wrote and illustrated just to make an edgy joke to poke fun at Penny and her friends’ perceptions of Johnny Lovely, the one off character from that TPF episode: The Legend of Johnny Lovely that I saw on Disney Channel once 20 something years being voiced by the late Pablo Santos when he was alive during the 2000's original TPF’s run before he tragically died in a plane crash incident in 2006 a year after the 2000's Proud Family ended in a tv movie released in 2005 that served as it’s series finale at that time, and after having played through the Kamoshida arc in P5R on my Switch console as well as getting to know the kind of despicable monster that 1st Villain character of Persona 5 was, it later made me reminisce about that One Time TPF Character who was both mysterious and kindhearted, and the fact that Johnny Lovely was written and designed to reflect both his voice actor’s likeness and real life personality, I decided to convey my joke/rhetorical question about what kind of person did Penny Proud think that J.L. Really was when she called him a pig at the end of the bloopers montage that came after the Johnny Lovely episode ended, which is I drew Penny and her friends’ perceptions of Johnny Lovely in such over the top anime trope manners where penny’s friends view J.L. as a shirtless angel while I envisioned penny’s questionable perception of Johnny Lovely as a sleazy pig with Kamoshida’s face but as a literal pig this time to convey how funny and dark penny’s confusing and questionable pig insult was whatsoever in the first place, I hope this edgy fan comic strip gag doesn’t unintentionally come off as a controversial insult to Proud Family fans as I mean no such disrespect since I only drew this joke for fun as I hope you folks reading this Fan Comic Strip Gag like it today of course. #clarendonfilter #proudfamily #fancomic #comicstripgag #persona5reference #shirtlessguy #angel #pigman #ecf #ecfartcenters (at Inglewood, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqGtsHRPGAI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Did a little rivals duo writing

"Hullo, Dream" Technoblade said "to what do I owe the pleasure?"

Dream, frowning more than usual, picked a single picture from his pocket and gave it to the pigman without saying a word.

"What's thi- is that your house?" Technoblade ghasped in shock. The picture showed a massive mansion of deepslate and blackstone with some parts of calcite bringing a beautiful contrast. Upon closer look, Techno noticed the building was decorated with glistering blackstone on random parts of the walls.

"Well, I will admit it, this is a fine looking house you got there" He added, but raised an eyebrow in suspicion. Dream was very clear about how they should part ways after their jailbreak, it was weird that he came to meet him in his home. Besides that, Dream was way too grumpy for someone flexing their possesions. So, if not to brag, why did Dream come?

The question lingered in the air, but the human was not in the mood to wait for Techno to ask again. "I had" he said through gritted teeth.

"Hm? What was that" Techno replied, realising why Dream seemed so angry and doing his best to stop his lips from forming a smirk.

"I had an extremely secure hideout, only me and the builder that helped me make it knew about it, it was the best base of the server in literally every way" Dream snapped "But that one other person just had to be Sam, who went ahead and griefed the whole thing while I was in jail"

"Wow that seems really bad" Techno said honestly. As much as he liked teasing Dream he wouldn't mock someone who had just lost their home. "If you need a place to crash, you can stay in my basement"

Dream relaxed his hands. Without realising, he had clenched his fists so hard they were turning white. "Thanks" he said in a lower tone. Though he couldn't bring himself to say it, he was very grateful not only for Technoblade lending him a roof to have over his head, but also that he spared him the humilhation of deliberately asking for it. "This is just temporary" he added.

"Sure thing, come inside, lets get you warm and cozy" The pigman said. "Just one more thing"

"What is it?" Dream asked. He was prepared for Technoblade to ask something in return, and while he didn't think it would be the book, that was a request he was afraid of. Dream couldn't trust anyone who asked for the book, not after all the months he'd been tortured for it.

"You have got to ring the bell" was the answer. "All day, we ring the bell, if you don't like bell noises, I'm afraid you'll need to find somewhere else to stay"

Dream couldn't help but laugh. He came expecting teasing for being homeless. dreading a request for the book, fearing being denyed a place to stay, but of course the one thing Technoblade asks for is to ring his stupid bell.

At least he's consistent Dream thought, remembering the last time Techno had the chance to ask for anything.

"Ok, I can do that"

"zbj complains because he wants everyone else to rest and take care of themselves" is so based bc the gao estate arc literally proves that he's capable and WILLING to do hard work so it's not like the dude's wholeheartedly actually lazy <3 self care king

YEAH I like to think that this pigman is a more complex & caring than he's usually given credit for. Slowing down the journey to the other four remember that they actually have bodies that need rest <3.

I've decided that I'm going to try to post some oc ref sheets everyday. Goal is at least one a day, but more if possible. Chances are that I'm not gonna stick with that though lol. But eh, worth a shot. Imma start with minecraft ocs.

I just downloaded the simplest ref sheet template i could find. Look at this adorable fucking bean. Also you read that right, he likes milk. You could literally just find him at 3AM chugging a warm glass of milk.

He loves Max truly and is working on being better for that reason, but yes, he toxic af. He's gotten smacked so many times, by so many people, for so many reasons. Those people include Women that he lead on, Sirius who was done with his bullshit, Dan who would protect Max with his life getting mad at Zach for almost cheating on him, etc.

Stressed dad alert. He's the most responsible one and does most of the work in their shared living space.

My other minecraft ocs include:

Dan(pigman/zombified piglin), Nico(overworld enderman), Hailey(witch), Prince Ranboo(Half Enderman,half ghast), Chris(creeper). They all live in the same house along with Max, Zach, and Sirius. Then there's Mika(human), Bull(spider), and Barb(witch. Hailey's mom.)

Anyway that is all for now
