#a wild ask has appeared!

[arkham-guard-dp-au]

Idea: The longer Danny works at Arkham, the more comfortable he is in allowing his ghost form to bleed through his human form around the inmates, patients, and even the staff. At that point, when his human form and ghost form are nearly indistinguishable from one another, everyone in Arkham makes sure not to let any of the bats know that Danny's less than human, not wanting him to leave cause he really does make staying at Arkham that much bearable... As long as you follow his instructions/rules while he's on duty. When he's off shift, it's all fair game but then, the next time you get caught, you'd be met with a disappointed look that shouldn't be as effective as it is. No one likes the disappointed look.

So like, Batfam knows of Danny and how he seems to keep Arkham somehow stable, but they can't, for the life of them, learn anything about him. When they try to meet him, nope, sorry, distraction, or, oh no, you just missed him. Part of this is also due to Danny avoiding them like the plague, cementing partial rumors of him being once with the batfam at some point. Some think he was 2nd Robin. Danny doesn't know about the conspiracy theories about him yet.

Omg yes. Tho I feel like Danny wouldn't be full ghost form looking, there is definitely something off with him. Like his ears are tapered, his hair sways in a non existent breeze, a grin too sharp and eyes that shine like a cats. Not to mention the chill that always seems to follow him along with the feeling of other. Definitely feeling uncanny Valley here.

As for the gaurds and some of the inmates. YES!! They absolutely do try to hide Danny whenever Batman is around. Either cuz the weird he's estranged family conspiracy theories, or because of the rumored Batman's no meta rule. Like they finally have a decent gaurd they are not gonna let a brooding furry chase him off.

Like I just imagine Batman is there dropping off an escaped inmate and like several employees just take off running to find Danny. Like yoo, you're needed to...help move a box! In the . . Supply closet and far away from the entrance! Is this totally sus? Yes. Does Danny go along with it cuz he also wants to avoid bat-tention(Bat attention)? Also yes.

Headcanon #645: Heart is usually the one that cooks for the three of them. Its not one of his main interests but he does really enjoy cooking and especially baking. Though he definitely gets too into it sometimes, and now they have like...80 more trays of baked goods than they all three need.

hello fellow worshipper ^^

so from most of II’s drum cams i’ve seen, you can barely hear Vessel’s vocals… like do you think that ever makes him sad? not being able to properly hear his pretty siren voice on stage? :(

ofc feel free to ignore, i’m just a curious dude :)

Heeey, thank you for the ask! And I’d never ignore you or anyone else (on purpose, but my object permanence is as bad as a newborn's, lol) 🖤🖤

So, I have two answers for you. My first answer is that, yes, II probably does feel some type of way about not hearing Vessel’s amazing live singing (or even the Vesselettes, or III and IV). It’s obvious he’s a fan of the music he writes with Vessel, and he gets really into it during certain songs like Atlantic, where pauses between the percussion parts exist. But if it makes you feel better, II absolutely loves what he does and fully kills it every time he goes on stage. I’m sure it’s a sacrifice he willingly makes.

My second answer is much more technical and would apply to any touring drummer/musician, not just Sleep Token, so I’m just gonna shove it under a cut to hide my nerdiness, lol (and also not to shatter anyone's illusion with how much planning and work goes into live performances).

What we hear in II’s live drum playthroughs and what II hears while playing is a lot different. Performing musicians wear unique earplugs/earphones called in-ear monitors (I’ll abbreviate them to IEMs). The IEMs have several purposes, mainly to protect musicians’ hearing and allow them to hear themselves and backtracks while performing over everything else during a concert (because concerts are loud, obviously lol). But the IEMs also enable the musicians to hear other things, like the stagehands/sound techs can speak to them, they’ll more often than not have a metronome going, and they may even have spoken cues like, “Verse Two in 4 3 2 1.”

I can guarantee that II has at least a metronome going during all of Sleep Token’s rituals. Since none of the band really speaks on stage (I don’t count III’s yelling), II also might have either Sam (his drum tech) or an automated voice telling him what song he’s playing next, along with a numbered countdown for the beginning of the song. II might even get in-the-moment verbal queues from Sam, or Sleep Token’s FOH, Thom.

This isn’t Sleep Token, but the video below is an excellent example of what I’m talking about. I don't expect everyone to watch the whole thing but it's great, tempo changes, count-ins, and everything. Flash warning, just in case.

The two screenshots are from the same video and add a bit more information on what a musician might hear in their IEMs during live shows.

I might be alone here, but I really wish Sleep Token would release at least one of the live drum recordings with an in-ear mix like the video above. I’d nerd out so hard over hearing exactly what II or any of the other Eepy guys (especially Vessel during The Summoning, omg) are hearing live in their IEMs.

I know there are people who do mockups on YouTube of Popstar’s supposed IEM mixes and I swear if I had any musical knowledge or video editing skills it would be my self-proclaimed mission to put an in-ear mix into all of Sleep Token's live shows 😅😅

You didn't specify, so have this frog! :3

OMG FROGSSSS TY THE BROWN ONE IS SO GRUMPY AND CUTEEEE (why is he remus coded)

[mantisgodsdomain]

for the ask game, ca you do the first question for kina?

Not many people talk about her so I don't really have a idea beyond just her sprite

(for this ask game)

Yes, we can! This leans on personal HCs a bit, so we will note - we are not 100% canon compliant. More specifically, we add claws back onto mantids and we tend to have bug size differences be slightly more pronounced rather than having everyone be People Sized. We'll run through.. notable features?

1. Describe your OC physically- what do they look like? What notable features do they have, or what’s your favorite part of their design?

Large mantis. Very large mantis, in fact. The pink tends to take second fiddle to size, since being a member just about the biggest species of mantis in the Ant Kingdom (Tenodera sinensis, or the Chinese Mantis), Kina's big enough for it to be notable, even if stunting from lack of food means she's a good bit smaller than an average mantis of her species, but the second thing a bug would notice would probably be the pink.

And she is pink. A salmon-y pink, but still... pink, which is a color that's not out of the range of what people expect, what with orchid mantises being a thing, but it's still notable simply because of the mantis it's attached to.

She's tall by bug standards and pretty damn well-built, she's got runner's muscle from spending her time darting across half the kingdom, but genetics mean that she tends towards more bulky muscle more than she does the sort of sleek "runner's physique" people usually associate with that. Translated to human looks, she'd have a mild version of the sort of "movie star six-pack" that gets seen as a Beauty Ideal, as her baseline is "underfed and mildly to moderately dehydrated while doing very physical work".

She's got fairly well-cared-for claws, along with a set of purple daggers she generally has sheathed on the insides of her raptorial claws in such a way that she can "flick" them out to be combar-ready at a moment's notice. Her bandanna is a gift from Maki back when they were just starting out as explorers, but the knife setup came later. Her primary eyes are purple, but she uses her simple eyes more most of the time. Squints enough that you can't really see the color most of the time. She's got a wide, wide assortment of scars and scratches on her shell, mostly from Explorer's Association jobs, but the specifics of those vary from fic to fic - our current most consistent one would be a series of grooves cut into the inner sides of her claws from when she was still getting the hang of flicking her daggers out of their sheathes.

In less words: Large, scarred, buff pink chinese mantis with daggers strapped to the insides of her claws and a bandanna tied around her neck, generally in some state of agitation or another.

At the end of the day Ruki passed more time listening the music we like instead of enjoying his precious silence

We, Livestock, are a big force to influence in our master, hehe

“Shut up, Livestock. Not another word from you. Don’t misconstrue my words as greater consideration for your opinions and music tastes than necessary. Even now, I still prioritize the peace and quiet that is not only conducive for my concentration, but also a much-deserved break from the chore of keeping my younger brothers away from trouble. Have you already forgotten what I suggested to you before? That I wouldn’t hesitate to indulge in your sweet blood if it would yield an equally, if not sweeter sound from those lips. We’ll see who truly influences the other in this arrangement.”

Little innocent question : Why quitting Twitter ?

Honestly I quit Twitter for a multitude of reasons but the easiest answer is this: Twitter isn't a good site anymore.

I used to enjoy chatter with friends and banter on my tl. Then you couldnt see more than a certain amount of posts, mutuals were locked out of messages and couldnt reply to dms. Many of my mutuals left and went to discord, mastodon, and a few returned to tumblr. So I just decided to toss it and come back here.

RP wise I didnt like the vibe that Twitters RP verse had, and I really do enjoy it on mastodon. Its like a breathe of fresh air.

Lol. Nonnie.

This post should have stopped at a thought.

What was the point with this? I do not like Jiang Cheng.

You do.

Don't come into my space and clown in my asks looking for a fight. You're not gonna get it.

Go away.

Sokka has been seen & recognized by quite a few people already. How much longer until word gets out to Ozai that the Blue Wolf is still alive ? And how would he react? Would this affect Azula? (As in will Ozai take his wrath out on her?) Poor girl has been through enough T.T Very very excited to read the rest! Thanks!

Well, that's why Sokka wants to keep full control over communications :'D it's not that big of a problem if people within Omashu find out... it's only a problem if the information leaves the city. We'll see how strict the control will be, as well as how Sokka will handle information leaks, in due time... but indeed, this is the consequence of being a little too famous for his own good, haha.

As for Ozai's reaction... well, evidently we'll see it eventually too :') Azula's definitely going to be affected by it, but perhaps the way things will play out will catch some of you by surprise? I'm not really sure, haha. But rest assured, the chapter where Azula is directly affected by this very scary change in the status quo isn't too far away. So sit tight and we'll be there soon! :'D

Thank you very much for the ask and I hope you continue to enjoy the story!!

I got a Johnny scrap just for you 😘

Is he third wheeling Vilme and Middy? 😂

Thank you for the scrap 🙏

[pkmngame-fankids]

can you... perhaps... tell us more about kendrick?

Sure thing! Please note that all information in this post is subject to change though!

As I mentioned earlier, he was a member of Team Phoenix. He starts out as... well, he’s not very nice to start out with. He’s cold and uncaring and only wants the best for Team Phoenix. He’ll stomp out any rebellion that he has to and doesn’t really care who gets hurt in the process.

That’s how he meets Zaid, actually. Kendrick is running an operation for Team Phoenix and Zaid is there to try and stop him. They fight, Kendrick messes up the operation, and Zaid has vanished by the time another higher up of Team Phoenix arrives. Of course, this starts a rivalry and by the next time Zaid, Kendrick knows who he is travelling with, who his family is, and what kind of Pokémon he has. 

Despite all this information, Kendrick still ends up failing any task assigned to him whenever Zaid and his group of friends appear.

Of course, eventually, Kendrick and Zaid get into a fight just before a blizzard hits, which separates the both of them from their respective groups and forces them to work together. Kendrick gets injured sometime during this time, and Zaid, instead of abandoning him like he had thought, keeps him safe and as well cared for as one can expect while being trapped in a storm. During this time, they get to talking about why Kendrick joined Team Phoenix and why Zaid is so opposed to it, and come to a sort of understanding and a shaky bond. 

After the storm passes but before Zaid’s travelling group finds them, Zaid makes the offer to Kendrick to join them, which he refuses. And when Zaid’s friends do find them, Zaid makes the offer again, which Kendrick refuses again. After that, Zaid leaves and Kendrick starts slowly making his way back to Team Phoenix. 

At this point, Team Phoenix had given up on the search for Kendrick and assumed that he had died. So when Kendrick does reappear, still injured but breathing, there’s no warm welcome and he’s put back to work after a doctor gave a very brief look at him. And he’s not entirely sure why he’s surprised by this, but he is. Which kind of leads him to re-evaluate where he is in life, because if an enemy showed more care to his well-being than the people who were supposedly on his side, was he really doing the right thing?

His redemption is slow, and his acts of rebellion against Team Phoenix start out as small things, like adding pins on his uniform and breaking curfew, but eventually he starts giving information to Zaid and his friends about Team Phoenix under an alias. When he and Zaid next meet up, he reveals that he’s the double agent and gives him more information to work with. And when Kendrick is found out to be the spy, he is able to send a message to Zaid just before he is captured asking for help.

When Zaid and his friends do rescue him, Kendrick has been beat up quite a bit. He’s probably got a few broken bones at best (at worst, maybe a mix of blunt force trauma, penetrating trauma, and broken bones) and even though he’s pretty badly injured, he still refuses treatment. He knows that a lot more people got hurt (or worse) while he was waiting and hoping for rescue, and he’s quite insistent that those people get medical treatment first. 

It ends up being one of Zaid’s travelling companions, likely Caleb or Shara, that practically drags a doctor to see Kendrick because he wasn’t going to one on his own, no matter how desperately he needed one. It takes months for Kendrick to heal properly, mainly because he's trying to make sure that he doesn't visit the doctor when he thinks he doesn't need to, and when he doesn't visit the doctor, it's Zaid that drags him there. And when Zaid insists that Kendrick actually start taking care of himself, he slowly starts taking his advice seriously.

Kendrick's still cold and distant with strangers, but he's different around Zaid (and his friends, but mostly Zaid). He's warmer, happier, and far kinder with him than he is with most others, and no one really understands why until they start dating years later.
