My Personal Alastor Headcanons

Not because I'm a simp or anything ahahahah.... All SFW aside from some cursing of course. :)

I am sleep deprived and stupid so some of these maybe shit and have terrible spelling errors. My mind is running at 3% and some of these were spontaneously made up because that's how my mind works. Enjoy.

📻 Viv let us play with Alastor's sexuality and so I hc he is demisexual (totally not me projecting and basing it off my own experiences, nahhhh...) and he rarely falls for anyone, but when he does he falls HARD.

• That being said, the flirtation begins. He is terrible at it... He respects boundaries and is incredibly respectful but he 100% butchers pickup lines because he genuinely thinks our generation likes those.

- "If you were a vegetable you would be a cucumber."

- "Do you have an extra heart? Mine was stolen."

- Can demons have strokes? That's probably what you are saying

- Angel Dust hears and DIES. Surprisingly gives some solid advice.

- "Stop with the pick-up lines. Just be yourself and it'll work, trust me, ya weirdo..."

- So he does. AKA secretly follows you, will randomly spawn to open doors for you or pull out chairs, chivalry isn't dead, dear! Also tells you about his grizzly murders in his lifetime, if anyone disrespects you prepare for your knight in shoulder pads, will be slick and dedicates one of his radio shows to you and plays an old song from his day. Makes you SWOON. Angel is proud.

- Also likes dates to Cannibal Town and introduces you to Rosie. She thinks you are the cutest thing in the world, prepared to be coddled by both.

📻 He likes to play dress up with you if you let him. Picking out your wardrobe is SO fun for him.

📻 Is a top tier cook. Usually prefers meat and will cook that for you, but if he finds out you are a vegan/pescitarian/etc he will do that. Gets excited when you compliment his cooking.

📻 HE HAS A SECRET TAIL HE IS ASHAMED OF AND I WILL NOT HIDE IT. I LOVE WHEN POWERFUL CHARACTERS HAVE A MILD INCONVENIENCE THAT MAKES THEM LESS SCARY.

📻 He learns words and if it's not from Rosie... Be prepared because it gets bad and gets cringe.

- "Ah! Darling, I heard some demons today as I was on a stroll, they were from your era. What is a mee-mee?"

- "I see... I see. They also said the word "gyatt" to a woman, I assume that is a compliment, so my dear, you have a-"

- You stop him right there, explains what that means and he short circuits. He walks over to the corner and just places his head against it. "I would like to be alone for a while..."

- "If mama knew I said this she would beat my ass to next Tuesday..."

📻 I know it says he's not big on touch but I HC he really doesn't care. He never seems to show any recoil from it, but maybe its just if its strangers?

📻 Will educate you on everything he knows on the macabre and morbid.

📻 Will FORCE you to sit down and check out vintage stuff. Watching TV? Not anymore, there is a microphone cane through it. Charlie has bought you like six phones now...

📻 He is overall an attention seeking puppy.

📻 Does things that get him praise. He WANTS his ego boost and knows you'll give it to him.

📻 Gossips with you about everyone and anything, listens to you rant and will give some genuinely good advice unless its like about an ex or something.

- "Simple, dear! Just kill them."

📻 Jokingly (?) tries to get you to sell your soul to him.

- "All in jest, don't worry! I think the look on your face is HILARIOUS!"

📻 If he sees you upset he tries to make you smile.

📻 If you are short he will put things on the top shelf and stifle a laugh as he watches you try to get it. Bless Husk and Angel for getting it for you.

📻 Angel is the only male he doesn't really have a problem with, hence when he hears about Valentino he has a bit of anger, also just because he thinks hes gross and perverse. Someone like that doesn't deserve to be breathing.

📻 Whiskey is his forte. VERY picky with his drinks, he doesn't like the cheap stuff like Husk does. A lot of people say he drinks wine but I imagine he only likes the hard stuff.

📻 He is the type of man to leave the toilet seat up. Vaggie has voiced her opinions on it.

📻 When he got Niffty out of that toilet he probably waited until the bubbles almost stopped. He's a little bit of an asshole.

📻 Actively pranks Husk. Someone save the cat-man...

- Switches his alcohol with non-alcoholic and sees how long it takes him to realize or get drunk even though he's not.

- Plays poker against him but will actively cheat to make sure he wins 100% of the time.

- Puts cucumbers down to scare the shit out of him.

📻 Since he is a deer demon (a Stag at that) he is VERY territorial, especially of the Hotel. This is HIS home. Will never admit it though.

📻 ✨Sweet Southern Boy✨ (Not really a HC I just wanted to say that, nor is he really sweet)

📻 He hides his accent. It will come out though when he is extremely extremely angry or when he is extremely relaxed.

📻 Will wake you up by staring in your face, you may or not have screamed once.

📻 Bullies Sir Pentious. He's still pissed about him ripping his tailcoat and he holds a grudge.

📻 Also not a headcanon but doesn't mind personal space, will come into the bathroom as you shower for conversation and draw on the steamed mirror. If you ask him to stop he will and completely understands.

📻 Sits and stares at a wall sometime.

📻 Gets everyone to taste his coffee, it is mostly coffee grounds.

📻 Has ate a dog demon on more than one occasion. Unapologetically.

📻 You know those compilations of like people getting hurt on youtube? If he used the internet that shit would be the funniest thing in the world to him.

📻 Uses 1920s slang to confuse everyone.

📻 Jealous.

- Plationic: Um... He's your best friend, right? Why are you giving attention to others when he is RIGHT THERE. Oh? They can do that, well he can do it ten times better. Watch what else he can do! Yeah, he's the coolest, right?

- Romantically: Time to butt heads and flex every possible way. Will RUIN the person's confidence, the psychological warfare begins. He is the better one and he must make it known. If they start flirting with you, blood will be spilled.

📻 When people try and lecture him it goes in one ear and out the other.

📻 His hair tufts are his ears, that may actually be canon, not sure.

- If he gets comfortable enough and you scratch behind they he MELTS. It scared him at first but once he first fell asleep it was nice.

📻 Will tell you about his mother constantly. Bases a lot of his morals and being a gentleman off how his mother taught him and treats women like ✨queens✨

📻 I HC one of his biggest problems with Lucifer and why they had tha number was because he was absent in Charlie's life so much and since his dad left him and his mother he believes absent fathers are the worst. He believes you have an obligation AS A FATHER to be the best you can be and raise your child.

- Absent father? Will bully so hard. He hates them to a fault, even if it wasn't their fault. He refuses to take criticism on it and its one of the things he is most stubborn about. Man got some daddy issues he doesn't want to talk about.

📻 His daddy issues lead to abandonment issues.

📻 His mom passing away will make him be extra attentive if someone he cares about is sick.

- Will check in and only really care if it's the girls.

- Will probably tell the guys to suck it up. Rip.

📻 Touch and affection starved and just doesn't show it. I don't care if it's not in character, let me project my issues in peace.

📻 Says the most out of pocket shit just for shock value.

📻 Rosie teaches him things he isn't allowed to say.

📻 His favorite body part to eat is the heart. He thinks it's poetic.

📻 Owns a record player because of course he does.

- If you want him to try modern day music, you best be getting vinyls.

- If you pull up Spotify he will feel betrayed.

- "So... My radio show isn't good enough? You need some... Application to play music for you?"

- Will guilt trip you and not feel bad. You already use phones and social media, like... Will only indulge if you play HIS type of music, and even then he will bitch about how it sounds better on the record player and how he play it on his show instead.

- I clearly know nothing about how radio shows work and I don't care.

⚠️Mildly suggestive depending on who you are:

📻 Likes boobs, he just likes sleeping on them. He was a mama's boy and he probably rested his head on his mother's chest all the time growing up.

[velvetvexations]

re anon who talked about claims that white people can't be nonbinary, I have seen it. this was The Discourse in a corner of the internet i was in in like 2021. this person kept literally saying white people can't be nonbinary and quite a lot of people were agreeing with her.

isn't it sad this is the world we live in

It's funny (sarcasm) how many TransRadFems go on and on about how awful they were treated when they were still perceived as "feminine/gay cis men" and how being misgendered as a man as a trans femme is terrible (which is true, of course), but then turn around and say that (trans/cis) men/people who are perceived as men/etc don't ever experience anything bad at all ever. Like.... If that was true, you wouldn't have experienced any abuse while in the closet and would be happy to be misgendered, because it would give you more "privilege" to be seen as such. And yet, somehow, you realize that both of those things aren't actually true and that (real or perceived) manhood does actually come with a lot of oppression. But only when it comes to trans femmes, for some reason, and never trans mascs. It's almost as if you do know that trans mascs experience gendered oppression for being both trans and men, but deny it simply because you're a bigot and want to get away with being a transphobe. Hmmmmmm. 🤔

sometimes they'll admit to trans men being perceived as women but with the caveat "being treated as women is our best case scenario!" as though trans men aren't, just as trans women are, seen as deviants that need killing or correction rather than "just" your average every day cis woman

"Ohhh trans men think of themselves as women/AFAB which is badddd" actually I think of myself as a male cursed by a powerful wizard :)

wizards and magical hot springs are the number one leading cause of trans people

Male cursed by wizard here again tho. I do actually kind of feel a disconnect from the wider transmasc community, as I never feel like I was a woman or experienced what it was like to be one? But that's because I am extremely autistic and weird and have thought gendered expectations were ridiculous for as long as I can remember, and as such have been largely dehumanized by my peers in a way that most girls and "girls" haven't, if that makes any sense? But that doesn't mean other transmascs are wrong for feeling connected to womanhood on some level, it's just not something I can relate to at all. (I don't relate to manhood either for that matter, but that seems to be a more common experience)

gender is a wildly complicated thing and takes a lot to really examine, it's usually different for everyone in small ways

"trans men don't experience misogyny if they pass, but trans women always experience transmisogyny regardless of whether we pass or not" is a WILD fucking take. imagine 'we can always tell'ing your feminist theory as a trans woman. could fucking not be me.

soulgender sixth sense is especially sensitive to trans women whose gender is super special and radiates an aura of purity

Crazy take, feel free to tell me im wrong but i dont think anyone is inherently binary or nonbinary unless specified. I think that every single person on this earth has a slightly different gender (humans are akin to snowflakes and i do not mean this is a derogatory sense). You could put a group of perisex cis women into a room together and all of them would have varying degrees and opinions on what their cis-woman-ness means to them and the same goes for every other label and identity group. And just because someone defies whatever cultural and social norms of identity that have been put on them doesnt automatically make them nonbinary.

it's all just words

What do you think of the "drag is misogynistic" discourse? To me the argument I see is "they're cosplaying being a trans women and thats bad" Which.. sounds exactly like a terf argument but with the word trans slapped in it.

it's a TERF argument and I'm not even into drag

Every time I remember the blahaj discourse I want to simultaneously laugh & light a votive for the trans community's mental health. I am being told by folks who are younger than my personal obsession with sharks (22+ years running let's go!!!) that I cannot possibly fathom the appeal of a stuffie in the shape of a shark, and if I get one anyway, it's appropriation. And yeah, that discourse died pretty soon out of the cradle, but holy shit! It existed! I really hope, for the sake of all involved, that they feel sheepish in the future; better the embarrassment than doubling down on such a — frankly! — ridiculous mindset.

your AFAB man brain simply can't comprehend the true transfymynyn nature of sharks

Idk if this makes me racist but like. It is actually pretty uncomfortable seeing people use non European cultures having 3rd (or 4th or 5th or 6th etc) genders as proof transphobia is a western thing or whatever. Like. Idk I'm biased but as a (relatively) binary trans individual, I don't want to be relegated to a 3rd gender..? Id like to live as any other man, not some 3rd or 4th category of woman-that-acts-like-a-man. I'm happy for the people that see themselves in 3rd genders, but for me it just feels like a painful reminder of how otherized trans people have been historically.... (also I think it's kinda gross to prop up non European cultures as inherently so much better and great and a homogenized soup of betterness instead of. Yknow. Nuanced cultures with their own unique problems and bigotries and positive qualities. Like indigenous cultures don't have to be perfect for colonialism to be bad actually. But that's a separate thing)

yeah it's such an over simplification

just saw someone compare trans women to the omelas child I hate it here.

hard to overstate how much of a pathetic worm one would have to be to say that about themselves with zero irony

help a post appeared on my dash saying "trans men benefit from male privilege" and one person who reblogged it had "transphobes DNI/transandrophobia truthers DNI" on their header

yeah that's the people you wanna put out there first as a DNI trans men who think they're oppressed

Sorry if your inbox is a bad place to vent about this, but I'm so sick and tired of the way Go To Therapy is slung around these days, both as a stealth insult to imply someone is 'crazy' and needs to be 'fixed', but also as the genuine go to (often only) advice that treats it as some sort of fix-all solution. I was deeply traumatized by therapy as someone who's been in and out of it since pre-k and only finally decided to stop going for good in their 30's and being bombarded with the advice to Go To Therapy in every online space I'm part of is exhausting and triggering to the point that I have the word Therapy blacklisted on tumblr. And I can't like, talk about it without being told I just had the wrong therapist and need to keep trying until the right person magically comes along to fix me, as if I haven't spent my whole life trying to force myself into the mold of recovery. Someone not being able or willing to keep trying to heal in the Approved way is often treated as a red flag and a moral failing, and even my own closest friends have this idea in their heads that therapy is absolutely good for everyone and the only valid reason to not be in therapy is not being able to afford it. I'm just tired and I don't want to heal anymore because I don't think I'll ever be healed enough to satisfy anyone, I don't want to get up over and over and over, I want to stay down and rest.

love you anon <3

Doctrine and Covenants 128:18 - We cannot be pro-family and anti-LGBTQ+ at same time

This verse is specifically about Baptism for the Dead, and the principles presented for this practice are enlightening. It is a lengthy verse, I'll put the entire verse at the bottom of this post. For now, I want to focus on this section:

"It is sufficient to know, in this case, that the earth will be smitten with a curse unless there is a welding link of some kind or other between the fathers and the children, upon some subject or other—and behold what is that subject? It is the baptism for the dead. For we without them cannot be made perfect; neither can they without us be made perfect."

When I think of this from a queer perspective, for all those parents who've kicked out a child because they came out as LGBTQ, how does that action fit with this verse, aren't they are breaking those bonds? I don't know if they are smiting the earth, but they are smiting their family member (smite means "to strike sharply or heavily especially with the hand or an implement held in the hand." This could be a blow so hard that it causes injury or even death).

Many studies have shown that family rejection of LGBTQ children has a negative effect on their mental health as these queer individuals experience higher levels of depression, substance use, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempts. Literally, they are causing injury and death to their child.

Another part of the verse says that this welding of people together needs to be "a whole and complete and perfect union." That doesn't sound like there's gaps or missing pieces, there's no exceptions.

"for it is necessary in the ushering in of the dispensation of the fulness of times, which dispensation is now beginning to usher in, that a whole and complete and perfect union, and welding together of dispensations, and keys, and powers, and glories should take place,"

Interesting that it says all "glories." I've heard too many General Conference talks where queer people are relegated to lower kingdoms, or glories, of heaven, and the LDS Church is only going to focus on people who can become exalted (which current teaching requires a married couple, a man & a woman, to be sealed in the temple). This verse says all of us, no matter what our future glory may be, are to be bound together.

Everyone talking about being exalted without their LGBTQ+ family members WON’T BE. If same-gender couples and trans people aren’t exalted, NO ONE will be, instead there will be a curse. “For we without them cannot be made perfect; neither can they without us be made perfect.” We cannot be pro-family and anti-LGBTQ+ at same time.

Here's the complete verse:

18 I might have rendered a plainer translation to this, but it is sufficiently plain to suit my purpose as it stands. It is sufficient to know, in this case, that the earth will be smitten with a curse unless there is a welding link of some kind or other between the fathers and the children, upon some subject or other—and behold what is that subject? It is the baptism for the dead. For we without them cannot be made perfect; neither can they without us be made perfect. Neither can they nor we be made perfect without those who have died in the gospel also; for it is necessary in the ushering in of the dispensation of the fulness of times, which dispensation is now beginning to usher in, that a whole and complete and perfect union, and welding together of dispensations, and keys, and powers, and glories should take place, and be revealed from the days of Adam even to the present time. And not only this, but those things which never have been revealed from the foundation of the world, but have been kept hid from the wise and prudent, shall be revealed unto babes and sucklings in this, the dispensation of the fulness of times.

Summary: Waking up in a world that was not your own was problematic enough. Being the villainess was another. However, the possessive alphas might take the cake.

...

Your lips were pursed as you walked down each aisle to put away your books. You couldn't believe those two silly betas. You were seriously going to strangle them both.

You had one more book in your hand as you searched for its place. Your gaze darted down each row until you found it. "Ah..." You sigh looking at the top of the shelf. Of course, it was all the way up there. Was there a ladder or something? Fuck it you can try to reach for it. Standing on your toes you reached up as high as you could trying to balance the book on your fingertips, straining as you inched it closer and closer.

"Almost-almost-there-" Maybe you will use a spell to get the book up there dammit- "Ah-." You gasp as the book fell out of your hands coming back down to hit your face but before it could fall far someone caught it and pushed it into place.

"Ah- thanks." You smiled turning around until you let out a cry throwing your back into the shelf. "Oh, dear Tenge-"

"Found you." Sukuna grinned as he raised his hands to rest upon the shelves caging you in.

"H-Hi Sukuna- um...H-How did you find me- did you use the orb?" You tried to redirect him, watching as his gaze shifted over your form. It was almost like you could just see the gears turning, thinking of all the things he wanted to do to you now that he had you. Or perhaps he already thought about it and he's trying to pick what he wanted to do.

"I didn't cheat omega, that would have made this much less enjoyable." He scoffed leaning his face into the crook of your neck. He breathed deeply and then moaned appreciatively. "As if I could lose a scent like this."

You mewl as he pressed into you, your eyes squeezing shut. How did he scent you out in this big ass town along with your running around in the damn sewer? You don't know if he was just that great of a scenter or the power of his obsession just overpowered all.

"Sukuna- wait- mm~" You drifted off as he licked upon your scent gland dragging his tongue further down until he was kissing the top of your breasts.

"Wait wait wait- tch always running away from me and shit. You just like to make it hard for me huh? You like to make me work for it."

"N-no that's not it-" Claws grabbed at your dress dragging it down. You could feel your breasts slipping from their confines.

"Stop!" You freaked out pushing Sukuna by his chest and sending him flying against the other shelf. The impact made a few books clatter.

Your alpha looked at you in astonishment and to be fair you felt just as surprised. Dark whisps were twirling from your hands, you didn't even realize you put curse energy into that.

"Sukuna-uhm..." You began but Yuuji came running into the aisle.

"Hey is everything okay?" He questioned looking back and forth.

"This doesn't concern you brat." Sukuna sneered. "Unless I'm mistaken." His red gaze then looked toward you.

Oh helllll nooo

He was NOT insinuating what you think he was just now insinuating.

You gapped at him with an 'are you serious' face. "What does that mean."

"You tell me omega."

"Oh blow it out your ass Sukuna! Just because I don't want to have sex with you in public does not me I don't want you as my alpha! And it doesn't mean I want Itadori to replace you!"

Yuuji whined a bit, "This... seems like a lover's quarrel...imma... imma head out."

The boy inched away as you and your alpha glared at each other.

Thank you so much for the tag, @willtheweaver. Love your answers.

Rules: Explain the magic system of your current WIP as poorly as possible. Bonus points if you use bullet points

Tagging: This is an Open Tag.

This is for Fantasy Worlds Collide and centered on the Abyssal Realm, my version of Hell.

Magic is like really important but it doesn't make a lot of sense. It's part of everything: spells, enchanted items, and even how the world works.

Magical creatures? Yeah. They're like living proof that the laws of physics do not work. There are things like fire-breathing lizards and walking stone trees. No one asks why. They just exist.

Magic is used for EVERYTHING. You can mind control someone, make a sword that messes with time, or even raise the dead. It's fine unless you summon a giant apocalypse beast in Lucifer's throne room.

Science? It's done in really fancy demon labs: or shady underground places. What can I say? Demons like to make things explode.

Magic users use chaos magic that'll slowly drive you insane.

Like a good cup of coffee, it'll get you addicted. The more you use it, the crazier you get.

Mortals suck, okay? They have to deal with all kinds of issues, like a short lifespan. Only demons and celestials have the endurance to handle using actual magic long term.

Time is wibbly-wobbly, as that saying goes, and training takes forever. Please pray for a time-warping Archdemon who wants you to learn, so you can learn it before the day's through.

Some are born with it, while others have to work really hard to not implode with fire.

Imagine weapons that are super emotional. They can channel rage, pride, envy, and things like that. Each fancy archdemon gets his own flaming sword. But remember that these swords used to be their celestial blades. They are corrupted. What fun.

Warfare with magic is like a never-ending magic show with violence. Cast a spell. Punch someone. Cast another spell. Stab someone.

Magic made everything so much fancier. Swords do not rust but they can tempt. Shields and barriers can catch spells and throw them back. Have a problem with some guy casting Meteor? Erect a shield and throw that baby back at him.

Who needs tech when you got magic? Things like teleportation are a thing. They might make you vanish, part you with your lower half, or just make you very sleeping. Just depends on the demonic entity doing the magic.

Magic cannot not bring people back from the dead. Reality breaks unless you are the Chosen One or something. So no magic bunnies in hell. Please. They're still cleaning up from the last screwup.

Archemons cannot undo their past mistakes either. Too bad. No poofing their way back to the Celestial Plane.

Want to get around the rules? Make some deals or be an Archdemon's pet. It usually works. Usually.

Miracles? Those are just the fancy version of magic. You don't have to work for something and it happens out of nowhere? It's the divine pass to being a slacker.

Magic comes from mana, gods, and willpower. If you're lucky, it's your own blood and emotional baggage that powers it. Thankfully, you never got over that ex, but beware! You can run out of all of it. Archdemons will throw you away like a used battery.

The more powerful the spell, the longer it takes. Don't forget to prepare, or you'll end up with something like a cursed 'fireball' that's only useful for lighting a dark room.

There's no limit to the number of magic users. However, good luck finding one that is alive after a few years. Most are wiped out by the crazy magic-draining environments or fighting amongst themselves.

So, there it is. Magic is a wild ride in the Abyssal Realm. Don't think too hard when casting unless you want your face melted off like in Indiana Jones or set your head on fire like in Home Alone.

Don't know if tumbler ate this or not. If it didn't im sorry for bugging!

How would the yans react to Chase actually raising their kids and raising them well? Like percy gave birth there, and Athonius ended up raising the babies well. Like the kids consider him, their father and the babies act like humans? They know he's not their actual dad but they don't care lol.

it didn't, i just have a lot of asks dw 💀

i love how you guys want anthonius dead SO BAD omfg 😭 this poor boy

(first off, let's pretend that zeus wouldn't try to kill the kids for being 75% god and being... well, percy's)

anyway, anthonius would be SUCH A GOOD DAD. i bet you he would study the myths centered around the kids' father so he would be prepared for anything, like what powers to expect, etc

the kid would grow up to love his parents and they would have a normal life in the human world. they'd go to school, make friends, go to camp, etc. they would also be a good person due to who their parents are; anthonius and percy would definitely tell them to kind to others, never to hurt mortals, always stand up for themselves and others, it's no surprise this kid turns out to be so good and so unlike their actual father 🥹🥹

but then shit hits the fan when the yanderes finally manage to get into her universe 💀

poseidon would absolutely be furious at the thought of being replaced by a mortal son of athena. he wouldn't see anthonius as a good father, he'd only focus on the flaws (and he sees a lot). percy and his kid might as well be living in poverty (they're not), how dare anthonius have them live in some crummy house amongst humans? his kid is attending school with inferior beings??? he sees those inferior beings as EQUAL??? anthonius is a dead man

hades would straight up ignore anthonius. it's like the dude's not even there. he'd be so proud of how good his kid is, he'd tell percy "you did such a great job at raising our child" as if anthonius didn't also help out. "but it's okay, i'm here now. you must've been so lonely hmm? 😊". he'll spare anthonius unless the blonde tries to fight, but he'd at least kill him quickly as a thanks for keeping percy and his kid safe

apollo would just straight up kidnap them both, doesn't even bother to kill anthonius, he's just snatching his loved ones up and bringing them back to their REAL home 💀💀 if anthonius is around and tries to stop him, apollo's gonna kill him, but if he's not around, anthonius gets to live but apollo would DEFINITELY curse him with some incurable painful disease

loki's going to be sooo pissed, but he'll play the long game. he'll change his appearance and actually pretend to be their neighbor and his kid's new school teacher,, etc. he is gonna plant himself into their lives and seduce percy and try to gain his kid's favor. afterwards, he'll purposely leave anonymous gifts to percy that rattles her because she would KNOW who they come from, but it can't be, right??? loki can't be here!!! when all's said and done, after he manages to seduce her from her husband, he'll reveal himself, kill anthonius, and take her and the kid back home

beelzebub would be like loki but less up-front. rather than disguising himself he would hide from her but find ways to ruin their peaceful life as a form of punishing her. anthonius will suddenly find himself out of a job and practically blacklisted from ever working again. lots of men are suddenly attacking percy in the streets, beel's way of showing her how much she needs him and how useless anthonius is because where is he? why isn't he protecting her? their kid is being kicked out of schools and blamed for stuff he didn't do. when she's finally at her lowest, he'll reveal himself to her, kill anthonius, and take her and their kid back. might wipe their memory too.

Shang tsung isn't evil but a product of corruption and the environment that surrounds him. He's not evil in the sense of black n white thinking of morality. Especially from a western,psuedo Christian American perspective that so many people wanna shoehorn him into. (No shade here but im calling it like i see it nrs)

How is he evil when everyone in mortal kombat kills?

Also shao kahn quan chi and shinnok has arguably done worse

And even more so he's worked more with them,and under them(shao Kahn namely) and had no choice but to follow orders. Namely some things sure were aligned in benefit. But truly can you really argue that it was all his doing? No to say so is ignorant and undermining the other villains and antagonists of the series and their own contributions to the story narrative in opposition of protags and other characters.

The most evil is those who hide behind self righteousness and say they are for peace when they are being manipulated by promises of a better realm or timeline(cough fire god liu kang. COUGH)

Like nah guys mk12/mk1 don't make sense even for the narrative they are trying to pull. Shang is wonderful but yall missed the point even tho the storymode sucks and everything about it makes me nauseous, shang tsung shines thru because of what he represents. The story,It falls through the crack simply because of the fact

In mortal kombats chaotic and cruel world. You kill or be killed. You do what it takes to survive. Or be food for the gods. As you are nothing but entertainment for them.

Everyone kills in mortal kombat. So shang tsung killing means fucking nothing and is a moot point. He does it,everyone does it,how is he truly any different than anyone at that point. Thru mortal kombat,a supposedly Divine system,he's doing exactly what he's supposed to be doing. And what his character is designed to do. Period. So killing,moot point and argument.

Im not talking about. MK12/MK1 specifically. Tho that grinds my gears for many other reasons. Im talking shang tsung,overall as a whole as a character thru the 30+yrs the games and mk has been around. These are common arguments for that shang is "tHe EVil OnE" when there's no such thing in mks world. Truly. It's posturing and posing flowery words at that point. Period.

Stealing souls? He has to,to survive. He is cursed by the very gods and mentors that once swore to protect him. But did nothing.

Climbing for power? He does so because he wishes not to rule over. But so he doesn't have to worry about going to bed hungry,to suffer. He wants stability,comfort,and most of all security. A thing that long ago was robbed of him.

See you can't say shit about my man without having many reasons why he's not.

Could he be evil,nasty,and dowright fucking cruel? Oh you bet your ass he could. But does he enjoy it? Not really. He takes no pleasure unless it's out of necessity or you're considered an enemy.

He is no different than a hungry hunter. Trying to find his next meal or the next place of dwelling. Until he finds his true place of being and achieves a stable life.

Like ffs people it's right fucking there fine print and that still,STILL GOES OVER YOUR HEADS!

Like y'all who don't understand nuanced villains WANT him to be stereotypical,y'all want him to be easy to pinpoint. Because that means you dont get to critique your beloved "Heroic" characters. And use your brains,and critically think that maybe,just fucking maybe. Your nice dudes were wrong for once.

In mortal kombats world (if you can call it that because the world building sucks)

It's kill or be killed. Morality be damned. Shang tsung found that out long ago. Hiding behind morals in a world that could care less than about you. Gods that only see you as food,throw away entertainment,etc.

He may have respect for someone who despite all that crap,has some moral backbone. But isn't blind to the truth,it's survival. Dont be a pushover boot licking lapdog. As long as you don't hide behind your self righteousness and "goody goody" attitude. He'll respect that you have a noble heart. In fact,that may make him actually enjoy your company. But dont be a condescending jackass about your morals. And he'll be fine.

Shang tsung is just playing the game that the world is built upon. The rules,the gods,the empires,have made. And plays them well into his advantage.

And y'all pissed he plays it better than you. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That my dears is a truly well done villain,antagonist,and just a beautifully complex character.

That's how you do or are supposed to do shang tsung. Period.

I've been previously reminded of the idea, what if magic makes Nina or Eddie turn evil, a la Rufus. The last time I thought of it, I concluded that sans magic bs Nina wouldn't turn evil, but she might turn dark. (See here: https://www.tumblr.com/non-cannon/747558446208024576/ive-been-having-serious-thoughts-about-what-if?source=share)

This time I decided to think about what might drive Nina to turning evil on her own, and what that would look like.

I think it starts the same as before. She self isolates to protect others from the chosen one curse, and she ends up alone. At some point she even loses her grandmother. It could be from natural causes, but chosen one related causes sure would speed things up.

Nina ends up alone, for years, dealing with spirits and demons and gods and curses all the while. It wears her down. She gets of fucking tired of dealing with all of it that she eventually snaps. She doesn't turn evil, not yet, she just turns apathetic. She starts saying no, and refusing to engage.

Unfortunately, the gods and spirits and monsters don't leave her alone, and eventually she snaps again. All Nina wants is some peace and quiet, and they won't let her have it, so she'll force it. She'll kill them all if that's what if fucking takes.

There's also a part of her that wants to make sure there will never be another chosen one, so no one else will have to suffer as she has. No one can be chosen if there's no one left to do the choosing.

The gods may be powerful, but over the past few millennia, they've waned, and over the last several years she's grown in power. She's gained knowledge, skills, powers, artifacts and allies. She doesn't necessarily know about the allies. But they're the minor beings that have gotten used to being ignored who were surprised that anyone was willing to hear them out, let alone help them without asking for anything in return. So they help her, partially to repay whatever favor they feel she owes them, but also because who ever broke someone this kind and pure and good, probably fucking deserves whatever is coming for them.

Nina won't accept the help directly, she still won't let anyone get help hurting her, so they find ways to subtly help her. Guiding her to useful artifacts, protecting while she sleeps, ect.

The gods largely ignore her, until she kills her first minor god. Then they start panicking. And while Nina doesn't notice, either because it's so small, or wilful, the domain of the god crumbles, harming and or killing people god of war style. As she keeps killing gods, more of the world starts being damaged and more people die, and Nina refuses to notice.

And for whatever reason the gods can't fight her directly unless she takes the fight to them, and when she takes the fight to them, they die. They try sending curses and hexes at her, but they're the reason she knows how to fight those. One of the more self aware gods muses that if they hadn't so thoroughly used and abused her, she wouldn't have the power, skills, knowledge, or motive needed to kill them.

And they can't stop her. They've already taken everything from her except her life, and she's stopped caring about that long ago. And they've thus far failed to kill her anyway. Eventually Anubis comes up with the idea to take his powers away from her, only to realize that it's much harder to retract curse than a blessing. Not that it matters, Nina's amassed enough power at this point that she no longer needs his power.

Eventually the remaining gods, desperate and scared, decide to chose human acolytes to fight her for them, and the chose the members of Sibuna. Hoping desperately that, despite how many years it's been, Nina still cares about them enough that they can stop her, one way or another

That analysis about Sukuna and Gojo is SO good. I actually think they are really jealous that we love Sukuna even at his lowest. Also, why are they blaming Gege saying he treated Gojo like a tool? Isn't that what his fans do with him? Like, 90% of the discussion about him is his fight with Sukuna. Like, they NEED that fight, it's like Gojo stops existing without it

I'll tell you what, Sukuna can lose 100 fights that he will still be a character, maybe Gojo can't do that if he basically disappears unless they need to convince themselves Gojo won and how important that fight is. It's amazing how a lot of Sukuna fans don't even want that fight anymore while I saw even gojo stans begging sukuna stans to recognize that fight. Myself? I wish it never happened. Let gojo die to those supposed superior villains (aka didn't kill gojo) gojo stans say, but everytime you say "ok then Gojo should have fought Mahito or Kenjaku, never Sukuna!" They just get triggered and say NO, PLEASE, THE FIGHT WITH SUKUNA SHOULD HAPPEN

See? Now I really hope sukuna comes back and gojo doesn't. I'm sorry, but I have never been THIS tired of a fandom, and I have been in Naruto and other fandoms with shipping wars and everything, but that was never as BAD as this.

Leave Sukuna alone, not my fault he doesn't need Gojo to be a character, sorry

gooooood morning, anon. i'm so glad i woke up to this because i spent a lot of time thinking about that gojo vs sukuna last night.

i have noticed that a lot of people hate that gojo is a "tool" in the manga and yet their own headcanons about him are always that he should have to fight sukuna and win. notice that they always want gojo to win, which is never easy in a fight with sukuna. it's a lot of hard work. but besides that, wanting a character to do only one thing and have it go with only one outcome, that's about as one-dimensional as you can get with that character. they literally only want one thing to come from gojo going into that fight, and that's no better than gege treating him like a tool as they claim.

because even if they want gojo to be this complex and fascinating character (ngl i feel like a lot of his personality traits are a bit like filler - he's just a mix of all the fan favorite and common tropes of other anime mentors with some backstory to stir it all together) him only doing one thing ever (winning) is so boring and doesn't do his character justice at all. and the fans who hate on gege can't really see that.

meanwhile, sukuna is more than capable of being a strong character who can have multiple different outcomes, and not all of them have to be him winning. in fact, some of his best moments are when he has to work harder or reconfigure a different plan. it always make him more complex and interesting.

so that's why sukuna winning made since while gojo winning didn't. because sukuna actually had a plan in motion, he wasn't cheating or being fake because he needed to possess megumi to reach that level of power (he didn't even have all 20 fingers so him making up for the lack of it by possessing megumi was an intelligent move on so many different levels) and his unique cursed techniques and longtime experience made him an inherently better fighter than gojo. now i could care less if their positions were reversed and gojo was the one who had a lot more experience fighting, because it doesn't matter when sukuna actually does his best to learn from others and improve his abilities as he goes along. meanwhile, a lot of fans just want gojo to be powerful and not have to take a lesson from others in order to reach it.

another thing is, gojo was born the strongest and given so much wealth and special treatment. even if the jjk world only wanted to use him as a tool (which, cmon, they do to every sorcerer - the whole point of sorcerers is to serve as tools that restabilize the imbalances of power, even Geto's character understood they were all just cogs) gojo still had a lot of privileges and second chances given to him that not a lot of other characters could afford to have.

and idk if we can really confirm this or not, but sukuna seems to have a totally different experience, one where he was immediately shunned by the normal world and only seen as a force of strength for other sorcerers to test their skills against. i don't think anyone took ending sukuna's reign of terror that seriously, they only wanted to claim the title of being the strongest. not only that, so much about sukuna is still a mystery or very layered, mostly him being contradicting (especially where yuuji is concerned) and not revealing his past.

this turned out to be longer than i thought it would, but yeah... it's been on my mind a lot. gojo's character served a purpose when he died. not only did it show how much of a pure threat sukuna is (even if all that power wasn't inherently his own, it still shows he's good at coming up with plans that counterbalance his other weaknesses) but it also showed us how gojo's character can be seen in an entirely different light: someone who lost. he always thought he could win anything, but him dying showed a different side to him, because he even looked peaceful during death.

and if he comes back, fans don't realize it would mean that afterlife scene with geto would be simply meaningless. they adore stsg so much so i'm actually surprised that they want gojo to come back to life, bc it would mean leaving geto behind. makes no sense to me.

anyways, thanks for sharing your thoughts with me, anon. i hope this day goes well for you!

[clockworkbee]

you're losing me was going through jude's head when cardan exiled her btw

More like, for both of them? I mean, for Jude obviously, in the time between TWK and QoN but both of them throughout QoN as well...?

We thought a cure would come through in time, now, I fear it won't

like that line speaks for itself??? She spent (who knows how much) time thinking for a way around Cardan's words and even when she did, she was just so mad at herself for falling for his trick that she thought it wasn't enough, fearing it wasn't going to solve anything.

Now, I just sit in the dark and wonder if it's time Do I throw out everything we built or keep it?

all of this fits how Jude felt during the time between twk and qon but oh, that last line? Imagine Cardan thinking the stuff he wrote in his letters, thinking she doesn't want to come back anymore because after all he told her about himself, she might have 'placed' her ambition in the mortal world, wondering if he should throw out everything they built or keep it after she's dealt the final blow ? (Because he doesn't know she's not getting the letters, only thinks she chose not to respond!) </3

I'm getting tired even for a phoenix Always risin' from the ashes Mendin' all her gashes You might just have dealt the final blow

not only that, later in qon when Cardan says you never break and Jude feels like she's barely keeping it together?

I sent you signals and bit my nails down to the quick

That's Cardan at the end of twk and later when writing those letters, btw 😭💔 he was so sure she'd get it and be impressed and then he was just panicking, writing her all those letters, not knowing she wasn't receiving them, only that she was choosing not to respond or return.

And the air is thick with loss and indecision I know my pain is such an imposition

I mean, Jude's pov after the ending of twk, sure, but also Cardan's pov when she was captured by the Undersea? Cardan's pov again, when she wouldn't respond or come back? Cardan's pov again when she's taken by Madoc? And then Jude's pov again when Cardan leaves her after confessing his love, then turns into a giant serpent leaving her to act as the Queen and with all the authority and power she'd been wanting for so long??? (I'm not crying!)

Now, you're runnin' down the hallway And you know what they all say "You don't know what you got until it's gone"

Come on, it's both of them! Both of them knowing what it feels like having lost one another?

And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier

alright, that's both of them again, and quite literally, it hurts. Jude bled and bled and bled, and Cardan turned into a serpent + got his head cut off, just for the sake of being done with that prophecy and his and Jude's home!

Fighting in only your army, frontlines, don't you ignore me

It really hits when you think that Jude fought half the time thinking of it as her home and in QoN, not only Cardan's kingdom, but also hers, and Cardan was there addressing her as his Queen but just being a simple faerie boy for her, her Cardan!!! But ofc. it's Jude coz being at the frontline, being the one to free him of the curse and all that?? ❤️💔

And I wouldn't marry me either A pathological people pleaser Who only wanted you to see her

Is that just Jude or Cardan as well? They both wanted to be seen and they both saw eachother and understood eachother best.

And I'm fadin', thinkin' "Do something, babe, say something" (Say something)

Jude at the end of twk and Cardan afterwards...

"Lose something, babe, risk something" (You're losin' me) "Choose something, babe, I got nothing" (I got nothing) "To believe, unless you're choosin' me"

that's literally Jude before cutting off the serpent's head because she'd rather lose him than keep him bound, she'd rather risk it all, she'd rather choose him to be free, she'd rather have nothing at all, if only she gets him back, if only he chooses her (which he did)!!! *Screaming!*

That was pretty long but omg, thanks for that ask. The moment I heard the song, I was all about them in my head and if not for you, I never would have put it into a post 🥺

[the-s1lly-corner]

Can I get E, F, I, and W for the slenderman fluff alphabet, please? Your take on my favorite pasta cryptid of all time is so nice and interesting. Adds a certain depth I don't typically see.

Fluff Alphabet w/ Slenderman but it's these letters!

side thing but guys go listen to redoin by jerryterry its so fucking good im listening to it on loop while im writing this and its making my vibrate

E (EMOTION)-

stone cold exterior, warm squishy interior. still hung up on the "slenderman longs for companionship just like everyone else but rarely gets that need met due to his nature and way of existence"

in other words he can be a passionate sap in regards to you, behind closed doors. he can wrapped up easily in things, so sometimes his passion can be mischaracterized as rage or annoyance but rest assured he's not angry with your existence

right in the middle of the "heart on the sleeve" and "cold and distant" thing, he feels he needs to keep up his image of powerful monster but he doesn't let you think at any moment that you're not important to him

F (FAMILY)-

i don't think he would want kids, and thats assuming he even can. in my au he was created by zalgo with the sole purpose to cause problems for people, i dont think zalgo was thinking about whether or not slenderman can reproduce when he making him

of course adoption is always an option, and who knows, maybe if you guys find some stray kid in the woods he might just take them in

this is where my take on slenderman strays a lot from the original since i personally think slenderman just. kicks kids out of the woods (which leads to them talking about him, which leads to slenderman being a known cryptid in universe) but thats mostly just me not wanting to dwell on child death + giving the dude some level of morals that at least somewhat align with the self loathing that comes with his "i dont want to eat people but i have to in order to survive" thing

but hey i think thats because i love those comics where people draw predator and prey animals where both sides are sympathetic

love shit like that

slenderman is only one part of this huge web that we call nature, simply existing because that's just how things are

whips and nae naes

I (INJURY)-

rest assured that he will tear the world apart should someone or something ever send harm your way. god forbid you are mortally wounded or even killed

he knows some basic first aid stuff thanks to watching people for so so so long, but he's a kriller not a healer, he doesnt know what to do if youre losing a bunch of that red liquid that fuels your insides

oddly calm about it, though, though with the way he holds you you can feel his rage seething under his skin

he himself /can/ get injured but its rarely something to fret about unless its like, from some real powerful person or some human who knows how to take down a specific man eating forest demon; i've actually never really thought about what conditions would need to be met to outright krill slenderman but

yeah

when he's the one hurt he insists you not to worry, it's going to take a LOT to keep him down

if you're injured and its something he can treat he will make sure you take it easy but hes not going to baby you about it

W (WARRIOR)-

okay so im writing this segment first because i can write a whole essay and really i dont know if theres going to be anything stopping me from doing just that. curse you jerryterry, the bops are so good. anyways onto the topic; a lot of my interpretation of slenderman is admittedly based around the early fandom characterization of him + a very specific fic that will remain nameless (though im more than happy to spill the link in dms, said fic also has some influence over my entire au/hc thing but thats not todays topic)

despite what many may think, i feel like, at least with my hyper specific take on slenderman, i feel like he wouldnt want you to fight along side him or be a proxy. only time i can see him date a proxy or fellow kriller is if you were already one prior to the relationship. in my au, slenderman resents his own existence for being what he is, and if he could he WOULD choose to be something else; however he cant rewrite the laws of this universe or fight against his biological functions

like i can go on an entire tangent, but my au is still so scrambled around that im not entirely sure where to start or how im going to make it make sense, but i feel like he would much rather keep you by him and safe (and even then i feel like thats pushing it, sure hes more than capable of protecting you but what if something stronger than him comes and fucks shit up? not all the creepypasta characters are buddy buddy)

but perhaps i will write a collection of loosely connected one shots one day detailing the world building and dynamics

i make no promises

[bigsoftmarshmallow]

Okay, so I'm pretty sure you liked one of the posts that partially talks about their backstory, but I don't think you've read anything about Karina specifically.

h/t/t/p/s://www.tumblr.com/aikoiya/721484702337351680/loz-karina-goddess-of-love-passion?source=share

This is pretty important to her as a character, but so it this:

h/t/t/p/s://www.tumblr.com/aikoiya/727413120124993536/loz-gerudo-pantheon?source=share

The thing about a lot of those scenes is that they would mostly only happen before Demise became Demise. Afterwards, he'd be more likely to actively try & r*pe her.

Like, yes. I always wanna give characters a chance, but the problem is that unless a character wants to change, then they won't.

Do not pass go & do not collect $200. The buck stops with you.

Yes, he could reform, but he doesn't want to. I see him as the type whose addicted to the chaos & the hate & the bloodshed & the carnage.

In some ways, he reminds me of the Joker. "Some people wanna watch the world burn."

As Demise, he is too far gone. However, Ganondorf, to me, acts like his Sword of Damocles.

Yes, Ganondorf is Demise's hatred reborn, his Ara Mitama, but that isn't all he is. He's also human. Meaning that he can change given the right influences.

Which means that Ganondorf is both Demise's hatred upon the world & Demise's best chance at any form of salvation.

In all honesty, I tend to take a degree of influence from Shintoism & Buddhism with him. While I don't believe in such philosophies IRL, they do give me new & interesting angles to look at characters from.

And my depiction of Demise takes a degree of influence from Susano-o. And, he's known for having been cast out of the heavens to live as a mortal (though, with the things he could pull, he must've been a mortal sorcerer).

But, the thing is, there is a shitton of evidence to suggest that the actual curse that Demise placed upon Link & Zelda isn't reincarnation. Because reincarnation already existed within their world &, according to Shinto & Buddhist philosophy, every living thing is subject to reincarnation.

It is only further proven by Demise's own words, he uses a very specific term in the original Japanese. Rin'ne, which is the Japanese term for the Hindu word Samsāra, which is the neverending cycle of life, death, & rebirth.

Now, in the English, he said was that, "my hatred will follow."

"Follow." You can't exactly follow something if it's not already in motion.

What I think is that, Demise isn't causing Link & Zelda to reincarnate. I think that that was already going to happen regardless.

I believe that Demise's actual curse isn't so much forcing them to reincarnate (which, how would he even do that; he was never stated to have power over souls), rather I believe he's attached his own hatred to their souls & essentially piggybacking off of a natural phenomenon that takes place on their earth. His curse makes it so that, whenever they are reborn, they'll experience misery in some form or fashion.

Which brings me to my next point. I think that Hylia gave up a whole lot more than what a bunch of fans believe she did.

Thing is, in a world where reincarnation is real, the only way to escape it is the give up on all worldly attachments. Which, I don't think even most deities can boast about themselves.

Especially not Hylia. She is VERY attached. So, when she became mortal, she sort of became subject to Rin'ne like any other mortal. Whether she knew or she didn't, that's a different story, but I still think it to be true.

Anyway, tangent, my bad. I see Ganondorf as being parallel to Susano-o time as a mortal.

And, you know what? He eventually makes amends. But he's only able to through living as a mortal. Or at least, that's the angle I'm going with.

And, in a way, Karina sort of represents Demise's, or Gàlondo's Kushinada-hime. Susano-o's eventual wife. (But only represent her. If she actually was Kushinada, then she'd be transformed into a comb most of the story. XD)

But, bottom line is that, according to Buddhism, it's actually not

Another interesting thing is that, while yes, the Triforce bears a surface-level resemblance to the concept of the Holy Trinity, I think it has more in common with the 3 Confucian Virtues.

And, do you know what those virtues are?

Courage

Wisdom

.

.

.

.

Benevolence.

And, do you know what Conficius believed of benevolence? It is humaneness. Or love for others.

That it starts at the home, but shouldn't stop there.

One could even argue that it is an extension of Aristole's idea that one's relationship with others reflects the relationship that we have with ourselves. In other words, how you view or treat yourself can affects how you view or treat others.

Which makes self-compassion (philautia) rather than narcissism (narcissis) very important. Because arrogance is often times a sign of someone who is secretly insecure.

And, interestingly enough, Karina is a goddess of all types of love & of healthy relationships (among other things), meaning she likely knows what she's talking about.

Anyway, back to where I was. Confucian benevolence is described as a moral sense that begins with one's own family & that strong foundation allows for such feelings to flow outward to one's community & beyond.

So, what happens when one's family or home is not strong. If the filial love isn't allowed to flourish?

Now, that by no means indicates that one can't be benevolent without a good home life or relationship with one's family. But just like how one can still learn how to read later in life, if it's nurtured early in life, it's comes easier.

But yeah, that's my logic.

Sorry for the infodumping.

Is Demise a terrible being? Yes. Do I love him?

... yes...

I really wish I could like me a hero for once. Alas, my heart is forever tormented by villains and antiheroes!

I am always here for your Universe's lore, my dear. You have incredible storytelling and information to give on WHY something should be the way it is in your version of Hyrule! I cannot wait to see more about it!

I actually have all the links you give me saved on my notes app to be able to pull them up whenever I am able to read... AKA when my brain lets me actually sit down to read.

"WEIRDER THAN USUAL" 🎃🌴💜

Comic coming in 2024. AGE RATING: 15+

The final product will feature themes of abuse, trauma, mental illness, and inappropriate language-- [IE: Swearing]

In the current day and age, somewhere in Florida, never mind where & how long exactly, sits the hidden town of Hollow Heights.

It's not invisible or anything! Just one of those small towns nobody really cares about. People don't really come by unless they're lost tourists with shitty GPS. And there isn't really much to note? It's your standard Florida suburb where everyone knows everyone; full of questionable adults, birds, bugs, casually insane crime, and some pretty cheap-yet-decent houses!

...Oh, yeah. And a magical curse that turns everyone who lives there into MONSTERS!

No one is ever born this way; Pax, Robin, Clinton & Ozzie sure weren't! But despite their looks, all Monsters maintain human brains & minds. And they're actually... pretty normal! 4 outcast teenagers simply doing their best (on a good day) to survive this hell-hole.

No one knows how it started. Most people don't even care anymore. All that everyone around here knows is that that the curse only effects people living in Hollow Heights specifically; and that it's only a matter of time before it gets to YOU.

They've also noticed that Monster forms primarily reflect the individual; they're NOT determined by genetics! In fact, whenever you become a Monster, & develop the powers that come with, there are 3 things the curse seems to always keeps in mind.

Who YOU are.

The things you've gone through.

And how you handled them!

More specifically... they tend to manifest after exposure to trauma.

There is cruelty for all of us. While only 1 in 4 people suffer with a mental illness, I think it is fair to say that everybody faces trauma at least once in their lives. Be it a loss, injury, or being met with somebody who doesn't love you like they should. It is very easy for us to get stuck on these experiences. They can make permanent changes to who we are, to the point where we may not recognize ourselves in the mirror anymore. Scary, ain't it?

And that's it. That's "the curse." It makes for an experience where simply existing begins to feel... Weirder Than Usual. And whether we heal / move on or not is a choice that only we can make, and a process only we can begin.

And while the trauma that induced it never truly goes away, there IS a way to get rid of the curse; and it's not as crazy as you'd think!

You can only heal so much inside of a toxic environment like HH. So the solution is simple: Get out of there. Free yourself & live freely somewhere else; ANYWHERE else! But of course, that's easier said than done. Especially in a world where things like money, power, oppression, and "being a child" still exist.

One of the poor souls trapped here for now is Pax Manalo: a down-on-their-luck martian violinist with strict parents, telekinetic & semi-psychic powers, adorable heart antennae, and a VERY charming & freaky clown boyfriend who swept them off their feet. And for months now, Pax (being the isolated wallflower & hopeless romantic of a 14-year-old that they are) has been certain that Florian Funnyman was THE ONE.

...Until Valentine's Day came around, and Florian puts his girlfriend through the unthinkable. Something so horrible that it broke her heart, changed her life forever, and left Pax wondering if there'd even be a point in ever speaking about it again.

She doesn't want to get in trouble. She doesn't know if she wants HIM to get in trouble. She doesn't even know if anyone will believe her! Especially since Florian & his family have pretty damn high reputations around town. It's a small place, he's only a grade above her, she's friends with his brother, she doesn't have any other good friends--!! and Florian's been keeping a very watchful eye to make sure nobody ever speaks of it.

But as time goes on... Pax realizes that they can't just stay here in Hollow Heights, or dating a guy like him. And that they need help, a support system, to help them through this. And thus, Pax is left no choice but to reach out and connect with the other Monsters around them; and it doesn't take long before she finally meets some kindred spirits along the way.

Kindred spirits who are willing to help keep her safe; Kindred spirits who will support her as she tries to get her life back, learns to better advocate for herself, share their own sorrows with her as well as they face other hardships & all grow together, and stand by her no matter what.

Dead boys x (Y/n) intro

Warning, zombies, Ghosts, and more undead. Also mentioning Suicide in Axar's part.

Zombie (Fleshy) -

Fleshy was bitten by a zombie when the first outbreak happened. When he was alive, he was 24 years old, and on his way to work. He was a Caucasian male. Now bears pale, sickly skin.

CAUSE OF DEATH: Infected (Living dead.)

When he was alive, he was very popular, played soccer, and was a very smart guy. He worked at a business that handled finance. Life was good for Fleshy. But his name wasn't always Fleshy, it was Walker. Walker Wood. He's quite the prankster, and loves to pull pranks on people. But… Sometimes, when his hunger is to hard to control, and he will try and eat you. He is still dressed in the attire he died in, now very tattered and beaten. He has short, messy black hair. His eyes are a dull, lifeless green.

Ghost (Axar)

Axar died before the zombie outbreak. He died in the 80's by taking his own life.

Cause of death: CLASSIFIED (Rumor is it is unknown.)

But not even in death can he be free. He's bound to this world for a ghostly reason. He was in his late 20's, maybe even his early 30's when he died. He travels as he pleases, moaning and crying for a second chance at life. He seems to deeply regret taking his life.

Seeing as he's not attached to a building like other spirits are, he watches the living with jealousy. He's not sure what he was when he was alive. He simply forgot.

He doesn't look like the others. He looks like a normal human, just a little transparent. He can touch you, but if you try to touch him, your hand will go through him. He prefers colorful attire, wears his hair up in a pony tail. African American male. Any and all information about spirit is unknown.

Fallen Angel (Asgore)

Asgore was Heaven's most beautiful angel. High above the clouds, he lived with Helios, the revered god of the sun. Asgore wanted to have powers like Helios did, he was tired of being ignored and shunned away from the god's praise and worship. Jealousy took over and he attacked Helios one day. The two were locked in battle for 2 days, and Helios banished Asgore from Heaven. As Asgore fell, Heaven began to crumble and collapse.

Asgore was banished to the earth, where he fell into to a forest where no light shines. He would forever be cursed to roam the forest, becoming a hideous, horrible creature who lives in jealousy and hatred. Asgore reveres himself as a god, but he will never match the strength and power a true god holds. He shows no mercy, nor will he pity those in need.

As Asgore fell, his form began to crack and break, turning him into a ugly, hideous creature. Before he hit the ground, he transformed himself into a cat, a black cat with orange eyes. He uses this to hide his true form, and whoever lays eyes on his true self, dies a painful death because of how ugly it is. He feasts on the corpse after. He has built a throne out of the bones and pieces left behind of those who had such a fate.

With the zombie outbreak in tow, he begins to see less human activity and more zombies. But, he will feast upon anyone, regardless if they are infected or not. Unless he finds you beautiful, you will be spared and kept as his "bride". He shows no mercy to his bride and keeps her and the others locked away in a tower. Countless have failed to rescue them.

He was once a very skilled musician, but now, his paws don't allow him to play. So he'll attempt to sing, but it's more like a screeching sound that the locals say is the Rapture. Every life form freezes in time and cannot move while he is "singing".

He is Hispanic, having had long white hair when he was an angel. His wings were a pure white, and reflected the sun beautifully.

[xxdoubledaisyxx]

This one is for the trees.

First of all, life fucking sucks in this world. If it doesn't for you, then take this moment to be a bit more appreciative of whatever you are already grateful for. Really thing about what you are thankful for, and be specific, because such purposeful meditation and cogitation with the most sincere and open-hearted purpose that we keep to ourselves, is what prayer is.

It doesn't matter what you say, how you do it, and to whom you pray. That action which I described as a way of personal self-reflection is what prayer is. One of the forms anyway, the worship and praise one. That's what it means to worship something, and you should always be extra conscious when thinking like that about people, because dishonesty in such a place is the difference between a blessing and a curse. Do not try to fool yourself the way we fool other people.

If you are an adult, you probably already know this because it came back and bit you already, but if you are a kid, this is what you should know about who God is when "He listens". Each word you use, if you use one specifically which intention, is like a different flavor of spell, and your sincerity can be the difference between a blessing and a curse.

The natural class of spellcasting via prayer is neuromancy. I am a neuromancer. Yes, I made all this up, partially in acknowledgement of a Battle Beast song when I tried to think of what my job title is at Way Walker Industries.

So, that is why it is good to pray and think of any form of self-reflection of yours which cotemplates anything good at any time, and also why I know life sucks in the USA.

It is like a draining, parasitic, nuisance of evil and unpleasant stress because of unjust expectations on all citizens to clean up the messes of the USA government every god damn day because they are refusing to correct the problem the way I have instructed.

Instead they blame me and I end up having to constantly do international CIA level work as a random civilian who wants nothing to do with the CIA but can't avoid it due to the foreign "CIA" all being up on me and next thing you know: I'm practically Austin Powers in real life right now... I do not get paid, and I know how to stop the problem at the source and improve the whole damn thing because of the kind of problems I see as indications of civilization spanning social disease. I can be much more efficient if I had the resources I want, because I didn't need training from anyone to do what I do. Not any of those people who are in the government.

I walked the way of the Shaman, the spirit man of Nature, and I found exactly what I was looking for to be that kind of work. I do not need the CIA to recognize me, nor the "king" or anyone to recognize me, and if they think I do, they do not have my authority. They don't even understand it to know it is faith in God as any God or no God. That badge is given by the gods and goddesses, the transcended powers of divine creation, and you are nowhere near that level as a worldly organization unless you exist entirely derived from that level such as a world religion.

Buddha had this badge, as well as Jesus, as well as Zitkala, and countless others. It is invisible, but also what they mean when they say: He speaks with authority.

Didn't mean to complain, but don't get me started because I have a lot to complain about. With justification to complain too. You'd think it would be easier to get some customer service from the USA government, but I've not heard anything from them to address my complaints in 8 years except for brazen reprisal and Nazi oppression.

Whatever... if your life doesn't suck, then pray like a worm on the ground and beg forgiveness for your sins while you are eternally grateful for all the good things you enjoy because you are lucky and your privilege cannot be begrudged.

The trees, flowers, mushrooms, and special potions people like me are familiar with and sometimes use with you to open the gates of the underworld and commune with the dark powers of eternity for some personal occult insight... those make things better because for me, I like the escape from everyday sober consciousness with everyone else. I like it so much it is an addiction problem, that I take very seriously.

Those are one of the good things that make life worth living. They should not ever be considered the enemy, the evil, the terror, or anything antagonistic. Those are what we want to save and use for all manner of applications because they are good in Nature for connecting to the divine eternity through external perception. That is one thing. Internal perception, such as through books and stories or with meditation and prayer, is something else entirely as a form of escaping normal everyday sober consciousness. Both of those experiences are what I live for entirely and why I chose to set out on a career of spiritual self-discovery at such a young age. That is most certainly good. The Natural goods, and the Civilized goods, such as religion.

Maybe that will make it easier to understand that God is a very good thing, and not ever going to change just because people do. Religion is about God. Every single one of them. They are the same on that level, and this isn't much of a surprise to most people who actually practice. There is never any faith conflict except when it becomes a fight about something that does not include faith. That would be something that is both a Civilized good, and a Worldly good, like indoor plumbing or wine-making.

Alcohol is treasured for its poisonous effects upon people, but that is not the same kind of escape as that of one of those more Natural resources. The processing takes out a lot, and doing so has its pros and cons, but its not a good way to think about in comparison to something like cannabis. I realize a lot of you don't smoke pot, and that's a fine, it's not a problem if you don't, and you can enjoy this as well as anyone because normal sober consciousness also connects to the highest possible good of existential reality. The source itself. A source of ultimate eternal good that truly never runs out and is fueled naturally on True Love as the clean burning passion all life knows about, civilized or not.

So don't be difficult about that. If you are into any kind of poison as a form of intoxication, whether it is peyote or beer, that is because you have a problem with life in one way or another. Something that likely cannot be changed and you just have to accept until you are finally dead when it won't be your problem anymore. That is one of life's problems, and they are of the World as a goods to be problematic about, but they do not follow you after you die, no matter what you believe. Nobody ever heard of a ghost paying off their credit card debt.

Worth it? Life must be extraordinarily crappy if you are feeling how I feel, and I won't be surprised if you are. That's because this level is bare minimum of human male existence. Everybody feels this if they are not circumcised. Boys and girls. Girls feel that problem, but not as much because it does not concern them even if they are "not-circumcised", so they rarely even are aware that is a problem. The problem of terrorism itself, because of how that problem makes life specifically "not worth living". If you have to cut off a piece of your body to enjoy life, then that is not life. That is death and sin. That is uncivilized, lawless evil of the most despotic tyranny of brute criminals. Life is not worth living and it is not because you people are circumcised, it is because you don't know anything better because you didn't want to. You rejected God, is what you did, and if you did so because of your lack of understanding of religion, then you are in luck again.

Here's your answer.

Make it up yourself if you've got a problem with the Christian story and can't accept it, or focus all your attention on the Christian story with your faith to enjoy the most of your faith. Live what you believe, and your faith will enhance everything you do. The Way of the Story can do that for anyone's personal religious story, but is not so easy to accomplish as making a movie, novel, or fairy tale myth. Religion is powerful because it is expertly technical like coding language and engineering design, and if you want that for yourself, you are likely going to need some help when you start getting down to the nitty gritty details of your every day life experience.

So, people in the USA are opposed to cigarettes, violence, drugs, porn, and for the longest time other things like, homosexuality, racial equality, gender equality, and long ago, independent equality with all others. We are the same before we are different, and it is very similar to what Jews did to be Jews long ago in a Pagan world. They sound like Mormons to me because of all the religious prohibitions that cult has, so I think it's a guess they are behind those problems. We should embarrass that religion as a matter of national security. They are infecting our government and trying to take over the place to be some Mormon slave colony. That's a very real threat. Don't do shady stuff in the darkness to address them. Confront them in broad daylight and tell them straight up for everyone to hear that they are stupid, wrong, and problematic and they need to stop. Then every person you know who is a Mormon is going to feel it and unfuck themselves when they realize that the death of a Martyr means something.

There is something good about what they want, what we want, because I'm one of those kind of people myself who believes what they believe to be the source of good. Their story is fucked up because it is derived from Christianity, but if they could detach from that and close up the gaps they should be fine. The need the Way of the Story to do that, but don't expect to carry forth your bull shit into other realms of faith, because that is your evil and you will not be allowed to spread it beyond your own realm of faith.

The Universal Law is secure beyond any of our power as the ultimate source itself except with deadly imcomprehensible force. If you get too close to it, you could hit that and end up like a Martyr. That may be necessary no matter who you are, such a Jesus demonstrates.

Evil will not pass through that, and your "problem with intoxication" is your problem! Do not carry that out to become your neighbors' problems. Be discreet, careful, and open about your concerns, but don't be a fool and pick a fight with the people who smoke, drink, fuck, and crush skulls in the ring. Please. Your elite cult of sex acts is child's play compared to the real thing without the limiter of Hebrew faith that is circumcision. Circumcise if you want, but don't mistake what that is as a civilized concept with what happens when having sex and you experience true love from the source. That is something different, and you cannot think with circumcision to experience that. Nothing is worth letting go of that, and circumcision definitely gets in the way. You shouldn't want that to happen, and Jesus can possibly fix that for you, but there is no reason to make that a problem for yourself or others just to have to solve it later with Jesus being crucified earlier.

Anyway, that is one of the reasons why life sucks and we want drugs to make the experience better for ourselves. Not because I want anything Civilization can give me, but because I want to find the love of my life down there. You can go there if you are circumcised, but you will need Jesus with you, or the Way of the Story, because it's not easy to stand your ground on Nature's level, especially for sex, love, and rock and roll. Friends and allies can help, but if you go alone, you probably want to stay alone and choose your allies very carefully because of how you've learned to stay alive.

Staying alive.

Kong Silverback of the Natural wilderness is going to be aware of what's going on in his domain, and if you can't do the dance, you are probably going to be taken back to his place and given what you want. Depending on how you play it, you may just find yourself alone against all the malice and hatred Hell can conjure, or alone against a caravan of succubi and incubus making a holy pilgrimage to the land of sex, wine, and adult playtime parties every week.

Succubi and Incubus can go to the place in Heaven where sex happens. They are the only kind of demons you will meet there with the exception of special cases or new arrivals. They are in Heaven, so always on their best behavior, and the most professionally respectful attendants and guests, but when they leave... Heaven's rules are no longer applicable everywhere else. That's why they are demons, and you ought to always be afraid of a demon at least a little bit or you are going to provoke them 100 percent of the time.

Anyway, what I'm getting at is that the pure, straightedge, orderly perfect life with everything the way you want it, is a noble and worthy ideal, but have your head in your ass thinking everybody should be able to put in what that requires to be enjoyable. You have to go a long way through the hard parts before you start noticing that, and even the most devoted practitioners find that difficult to attain for themselves.

What's going to happen? People are going to rebel like children, act out in class, dirupt the silence of prayer and contemplation, and make a big fuss because of how bored they are and ininterested in God. Too bad for them, but that's never going to change. You are never going to make people participate because you need a total submission of free will to attain that kind of nirvana, and if you force anyone to be there for any reason, you will have put up a stumbling block. If you had been there yourself, you would know that it is difficult enough to get there without any needless stumbling blocks. In fact, you should know that best because you haven't been there and have given up and started helping the Devil for cheap answers!

Help other people attain enlightenment, nirvana, and all goodness from the source of good, and that is how you will work your way to it yourself, and the only way. You will see other people attain nirvana and through them, when you are finally ready to accept it openly and selflessly, you will.

Don't quantify your acts of faith individually to each other. Simply account them among all your good efforts as a 1 or a 0 and when you have a lot of them over a few years because you can only do so many a day, and some of them take a long time, you will see that each one helps by removing your limiters that are getting in the way of true happiness.

By making a law that forbids accomplishing something good, like getting drunk on alcohol, or hot boxing a band van, you are creating an unnecessary obstacle to God. That is a problem. You have gone too far in your self-estimation of individual value by thinking you could help people by giving them problems. That is never the case. The only one who can do that is the source itself, because that's what kills us, and that's one problem we do not have power over.

So, there is no reason to think a religion is capable of that, and it certainly cannot help people by doing that, but if laws and discipline concern you, then be concerned about them! Care immensely what they instruct, why they are worded the way they are, and what that means to you! if you cared about that, you would be more careful with how Christian faith culture is interfering with USA culture and threatening our nation's government and economy. Disturbing the peace in the worst way that erupts in violent military conflict. Do you not know what kind of stuff happens in the Old Testament? Have you not heard that God is a vengeful God? Do you think that your idyllic "Buddy Jesus" and Disney themed Torah is going to keep you safe from the Angel of Death? You ought to be a lot more afraid about those names when you take them as yourself by faith in a religion.

I'm not saying you cannot guide your disciples, students, and children to the life of discipline you desire, but you are overstepping your boundaries as a neighbor if you think that you can use our universally vital government to do so. That is not yours. That is not any of ours. That is something that works a specific way, and is required to work that specific way for a very good reason that not only concerns us, but concerns every other nation in the world. That requires expert professionalism and political integrity at the highest level because of how important that government is. That's why something like the Constitution is so universally important to us all. It's not perfect, which is why we need to come together to perfect what needs improvement, but that's something we should all trust each other with.

When I say I have a Constitutional right to demand a trial for the president to face judgement for treason, that is also your right. If you deny that to me, you deny that to yourself. That is how it goes, how it is supposed to happen, and if that doesn't happen, what makes you think there isn't going to be a military conflict against whatever has usurped the USA government? If all nations of the world rely on the USA government to be as designed, then why do you think they would tolerate some underground criminal conspiracy controlling our government for the most selfish and pathetic of private interests? You ought to be afraid because a terrorist was our president and he caused an insurrection to try and claim the USA as his dictatorship. Why would you not want that to be a trial!?

You have no reason to deny that. If that doesn't happen, there will be a constant threat of hostility against all of civilized life by the criminals controlling the USA military like mindless robots and puppets. That threat will get worse and worse until it erupts into military conflict with a war about people wanting their independent rights respected with equality to everyone else. All nations with kings, emperors, and gods. You don't have to respect each person as that, but if you fuck it up and insult the wrong one because of what you think it means to have a national identity, you will offend your gods and kings and become my personal enemy. That is what mirrors here 1 and 1, and the USA government is passing that around with other nations is if it had the authority to do so. They do not. Hell no.

I will do that myself personally, when it is time to address a concern. The USA is designed only to maintain that very specific government function. They have no reason to be making decisions that concern how I live my life, or what is good for my soul. Another reason why Christians should be careful about participating in government. The smallest problems and differences you cause could cause immense problems because of how incompatible Christianity is with Democracy and Freedom.

So, drugs help, and it is good to have laws that restrict our activities for the general moral good we need to maintain each one of us on our own. Nobody is going to check that unless you want them to by joining a religion, but you are expected to do that on your own even if nobody teaches you how.

However, people in drug culture need to be aware of the very same thing. Drugs can attain that one source too, but it is a way through the darkness of the underworld that is Nature, not the stairway to Heaven that is religion. So, if you are participating in our government as an officer or agent in some capacity while you are high on drugs or intoxicated on alcohol, you need to stop and address the problem of addiction which made you think you wanted to do so.

The good of government is higher than that as a civilized good because of how it is derived intellectually with language and writing, but that can be enjoyed as much without understanding by all people who are not officers in the government. Don't get drunk on beer while working in the government, and don't get high on faith to inspire your actions. Stay sober and stable like a stone at the base level. In either case, influence that we do not want interfering in our government will be getting involved if you are working in the government in an altered state of consciousness. When you are off work, probably not an issue with restraint, but I hope you can understand now why it is not tolerable for the community.

That's because the people who are the straight edge sober fully puritan believers in every time no matter what name they used, are the people who wrote and designed these kinds of organizations. They did so with everyone else, but it was their standard of morality that is the last standard before civilization ends. The stoner's corpse will be close behind with the tree flag tattered and bloody, but the clean and sober champion is always the last banner before total chaos and anarchy. Chivalry and honor will never die.

In any event, those two different goods, the natural assistance to God, and the civilized assistance to God, are separated by that one law of the source which baffles and kills us all no matter what. Do expect to ever have perfect synchronicity because of that, but it should not be difficult for you to think about the other side's interests as relative to your own, whether you are a person of religious faith or not, and then plan. Where the clean and sober are the holy white knights, clerics, and paladins of sacred order of discipline and power, the others who know the same truth about God and themselves through the dark path of Nature, are everyone else. Some of them are demons, like the succubus and incubus you find hanging around ports to shackle up sailors on liberty. Evil or no, you don't worry about that because of the one thing we all agree on to be civilized! As long as that is being upheld, as we expect of all people, then only your own moral quality should be your concern at all times.

You should be so concerned about your own moral quality as a good person upholding whatever you believe to be good with however you contribute, that you would not even think it possible to help other people the way you are not being helped with. Do you get angels and vengeful yokai coming around to give you hints and commentary like I do as I weave together stylish underwear for everyone who wants a pair? I didn't think so. Your own life and decisions should be more than you can carry, so please do not push yourself onto others unless you feel your own moral value will decrease if otherwise. When you feel like if you don't say something to help that person, you would hate yourself for letting them to keep going in such a state. That's the only time you should because that's what we all want to happen if we are in such a sorry and messed state!

Don't be upset just because you are being corrected, if it is something important like that on a basic level of civil human beings, but don't think it is anyone's job to help you with those things either.

There are things you can expect civilization to help with, but your own moral progress in life to be a good person, that is something every person has to do for themselves, and should seek guidance to learn how to do that by listening and practicing what the wise people say about it. They can't give you the answer, but you can certainly be helped a bit to make the accomplishment possible if you don't know how to start or can't surpass certain points-- like a spot with a bench press when you try to lift the God plates.

You have to *seize* that answer for yourself. Every single time. It is like Saidin. If you want nirvana, you are going to have to seize it in your powerful will and hold it without being destroyed as fire and ice erupt in cataclysmic rivers of power. It is incredible, but you must "seize the moment" to be present with it. How serene and placid the monk looks! If only you knew what the experience of nirvana was like to behold a man with such discipline as to seem like lotus and not an atomic volcano.

You could die, yes. That's why it takes practice and is very difficult to attain. Nobody is holding you back. You have to be strong enough to lift the flimsy, silky veil of maya like that of your bride on your wedding day, but that is no ordinary woman. That is a goddess, and lifting her bridal veil is like bench pressing the God plates. Remember when Thor used all his might and could barely lift up the tail of the housecat kept by the elder gods?

That's kind of why it is so appealing of a way of life for people like me, and you when you realize that you actually do want to be saved from sin. If you think you love sin because it gives you death, you are going to love faith because it gives you life.

So, long story short, the economic industry of intoxicants, substances, and recreational drugs in general, is on an order of priority underneath the priority of the clean and sober life. Don't ever forget that, but don't ever fight about it either. People who have addiction problems and find they cannot get them in hand without going completely clean and sober, need to be prioritized more than the others, because life is not easy no matter how you spin it in whatever age of the world. Life is hard. How long does it take a person before they are ready to "enter life". Real life. That takes about 20-30 years after you start and realize that is where you are going. There are as many ways as there are people, because we have to go there ourselves no matter who we are or what our situation is.

So, don't bring the spiritual conflict, the very sportsmanlike conflict, between Nature's spirituality and Civilization's spirituality, into government affairs, because it is through the government that death runs through. That is never a person. Jesus went there and was crucified. He resurrected in Story, if you care to know if there is more to those events, but that's more than the point for the purposes of government work. The point is, you will die if you go there, or set yourself on a course to pass through, even if you don't die immediately.

That is death, and no man can possibly possess that much power. You will be vaporized. You can channel it through a machine like a religion, but that is never personal through anyone on their own authority. That ultimate power is incomprehensible, non-personal thingness that is being held by your thoughts the more you think about it, like a pipe that can be touched, but you do not want to rupture or have stuck valves. We are all on space-ship Earth. Nobody should want to break this thing.

Concede to tolerating civil use of intoxicants and recreational drugs without criminal prosecution no matter the substance, and recreational drug users and junkies like myself will concede to tolerating your education materials that will teach people why it is good to be clean and sober if they have the strength for it. On the other hand, I will provide educational materials that you can help me prepare if you wish, that will teach people why it is good to use drugs and why it is dangerous like medicine. Then people will have to live their own lives when they are no longer children, and what they choose to do for themselves is beyond our control. We should not even be trying to control such things because our own selves are more than enough to keep under self-control when we want to be drunk and high 24/7 with three prostitutes and a Midget mariachi band all partying together in one very lubricated orgy. You can't always let yourself have that kind of fun every day, nor should you be trying to arrange your life that you could possibly do so.

If you read this much, then you know my education materials are going to be worthy to teach this kind of thing in a way that you can feel comfortable with. This won't be much different than common public television.

One last thing, if you are of the Natural path as a seeker of dark enlightenment, then if you got a little high and read this, you'd probably find it a good resource to resonate with all others who find themselves smoking a joint and reading these words.
