kunikida: “so are you seeing anyone?”

dazai *thinking*: “like… romantically or like the undead spirit of my one true friend who follows me wherever i go…”

kunikida: “… romantically i suppose.”

dazai grateful he did not need to delve into personal lore on a monday morning: “oh! yes!!”

[fisheito]

@dancermarianne ok. ok so. when i got this:

i thought, oh, did you send me a pic of yaku's new sprite expression? haha! well. joke's on you, i've already seen-

*FACESMASHES INTO MY KNEE FROM THE FORCE OF MY SUDDEN LAUGH*

[ghostofthejunkyard]

Now the question is if I should color him or not....

[quietwingsinthesky]

(@transmasc-rose) Yes!!!! The freckles girl! I do love Evie, and Jacob only becomes more stupid as time goes on :) They are charming and I love them. Excited to see how you feel >:3

Tbh whenever I'm not doing a Jacob mission I play as Evie. I genuinely can't tell if it's just because she has a smaller model, but she feels better to play.

Also the up and down buttons being seperate still messes me up. Why. What was the point of it. I know I jumped off ledges a few times as Ezio that I didn't want to but that's preferable to This.

I’m probably also going to spend most of my free time as Evie. 1) i love her but 2) i genuinely think she just handles better. i think they made jacob’s movement just a step too heavy to feel like. Good. in the way an assassin’s creed game, to me, should feel. there’s always weight behind the animations, sure, and i’m not going to pretend that ac2 + brotherhood had perfect control schemes, but when ezio wasn’t randomly choosing to leap off a ledge, he controlled exceedingly smoothly.

compared to that, i feel off of and ran into so much shit trying to play the first two levels of syndicate. and mostly as jacob, who feels like he doesn’t stop moving until two seconds after i finish holding the forward button. AND the two different buttons thing! terrible change! absolutely disrupts the flow of free-running and??? doesn’t even make any sense??? WHY IS THE LEAP OF FAITH A DOWN MOTION!!!!!! I’M JUST JUMPING!!!!!!! like, yeah, ezio sometimes prioritized jumping into hay piles over where he was actually facing and leapt off of buildings at random, but like. it was partially my fault each time for holding down the button that makes him jump! meanwhile, evie and jacob just stop dead in the middle of parkour because the next section is a Down section and i have to pull myself out of focusing on the path to remember to hit the other button. jarring! bad game design!

(i’m like 90% sure this is ditched by the time origins came out. points for origins. i still think ac2 & brotherhood had better parkour because it still had a little more complexity than i remember origins allowing for, but points where they’re due.)

anyway this all makes it sound like i had a terrible time amsjfkfj i did not. i had a fine time, especially with evie’s section. like holy shit they figured out how to let you crouch in their stealth game series. revolutionary. AND THE WHISTLE! god i missed the whistle, it’s in origins too and so useful. the throwing knife aiming is take it or leave it for me, it felt like sometimes it went where i was throwing and sometimes it didn’t, but ezio’s crossbow days were about as janky as that so i can’t judge too harshly.

and also they slammed evie into the floor and dropped a building on her <3 funsies for me <3 (jacob can have praise when he gets beaten up at some point. sure he derailed a train but he was fine, he doesn’t get praise for being fine. he will get praise when he is in pain <3)

[aro-aizawa]

im so glad that so far the fandom's ideas of shadybug and claw noir haven't been ripped to shreds im going lightheaded at how much im giggling

[keferon]

I’m productive for no reason at all. Especially not because I just discovered that I will be able to see Earthspark Prowl episode in less than two weeks. Nope ahahah I’m just being a normal human being over here whaddayamean

[asksonicverse]

You dont need to answer but I just wanted to tell you I adore Paradox being like "I hate all of them except" and then listing everyone except like 2 guys, honey you don't hate *all* of them you expressly don't hate *most of them*

Extremely charming characterization i adore it

[Creator Special number 2!]

So glad someone noticed that, I was originally going to have him name EVERYONE except Boost but then I was like “nah, Mania is just too annoying for Paradox to tolerate him”

And thanks! I’m trying to be… consistent with my characterization of each of them and stay in line with canon but like… URGH sometimes I want to deviate so bad just to indulge but I resist!

Needless to say tho, prism is probably going to get more affectionate later on. Rewatched Sonic Prime again and bro is a cutie patootie!

Headcanons… headcanons… hmm

Well, starting with the obvious, Paradox goes to therapy as I’ve mentioned which I think is hilarious. He and Lance are the only Shadows who really have their shit together which is why I think Sonadow works well for them? (we stan healthy relationships guys)

I do head canon that Eight doesn’t like being touched really at all anymore. After the metal virus, he grew so used to the fact that he couldn’t touch anyone that it sorta just stuck. He does it to save people, but not anything more. :(

And while I’m a sucker for the Trans Sonic HC I decided not to implement it in this particular AU!

I really want to include Captain Sonic and Shadow, but I haven’t played nor watched a serious play through of the game. (I’ve only really listened to a bit of the Snapcube dub..)

can someone tell me if Shadow is a Barista or a Mechanic in that game btw?? I google it, nothing pops up. I could’ve sworn there was something about a mechanic.

Uhh I LOVE Sonic Frontiers, fire game. If I include that one, it’ll ALSO be Sonamy since I’m pretty sure that game takes place before SA2 in canon?

I’m trying to keep the Sonics and Shadows balanced but I’d love to add Generations Shadow and Sonic. Just thinking of names already I get “Doom” for Shadow and “Emerald” for Sonic. (Referencing the fake emerald from their interaction in the shadow story)

Unfortunately I haven’t seen the Archie comics or Sonic Underground so I wouldn’t even know where to begin.

Someone also asked about if I’d ever include different AU’s: maybe if those AU creators gave me permission I’d be down to do a collab for a few asks or something!

Nope!

I dunno I just..! … how do I do? I’m fast. And you’re slow. That’s how I did it. /ref

Ahahah just kidding! But I am very fast. A few years ago I convinced myself I was a “slow drawer” because I was in a discord server with someone I looked up to (and holy cheese they could draw out fully articulate sketches in like 30 seconds!)

So I got insecure and taught myself to draw really fast. So now I just.. zoom! This does have a terrible draw back where I will very frequently forget smaller details.

Like if you look at half the posts, Shadow is missing his eyeliner and other markings frequently.

THIS IS JUST HILARIOUS TO ME YOU GUYS. PLEASE—

I’ve gotten SO many asks in my box about using Maria to calm the Shadows down or trying to give Shadows “Maria plushies”

Imagine you’re having a bad day and you get a plushie of your dead sibling thrown at you??? LMFAOOOO

I CANT I CANT I CANT PUT THEM THROUGH THAT 💔 Also I see every single ask.

“Do you all like Latinas” and “sonic which shadow is the hottest/shadow which sonic is the hottest” have all been engraved in my brain

Was joking with a friend on how that second question would come out LMFAOO

[sulumuns-dootah]

Your work inspires me so much!! If its ok, could i request something…? I´m in need of some angsty headcanons, since i dreamed about this particular scenario… How would the kings (who are deeply in love) react after discovering that his beloved MC is madly in love with one of their most faithful subordinates? MC has rejected their romantic advances before, but they are only now realizing why… And that… Hurts. I imagine would be Satan-Sitri, Beel-Bael, Levi-Foras, Mammon-Bimet?, Luci-Marbas? (my heart can't do this with Gami, its his little broo), and Belph-Beleth. Sorry if my english is bad, but thank you so much for your hard work!

WHB kings reaction to their crush liking someone else

⟡ Masterlist ⟡ 

A/N: Aw, thank you and dw your english is good! ^^

Warning: Some of these get a bit yandere :)

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

Well, Satan is seeing red

He's unable to look at Sitri the same

In doing so he spends more time with Amy, which makes Sitri mad

The two eventually end up having an argument about it and if you haven't told Sitri yet, he's in for another shock

Being the good king he is, he won't stand in your relationship as long as you hide it in front of him

If he sees you two together without leaving a space for Jesus, one of you is getting kicked across the whole Hell

Also to add onto the angst: his visits to pubs and heavy drinking get more frequent

At some point it gets so bad that the smell of alcohol just carries with him, but his mind is still sound enough to be a king

       ༺☆༻

Oh...

Well, this is a first

Wanting something, but he can't have it?

So this is what it's like to be a common peasant

Mammon hates the feeling of that

He would never hurt you, you're his master and you're free to do what you want

Still, that doesn't mean that Bimet won't feel the sting of it

So Mammon gives him less and less change

Bet you feel stupid now, since Bimet has barely any money

Oh, and look... Mammon just so happens to be very hot and fanning himself with a stack of money

Care for a 5* hotel stay at the most expensive spa in all of Hell?

       ༺☆༻

Full Yandere mode

What, did you expect anything less from the king of Envy?

How foolish you are, really...

Leviathan gets commisioned a golden cage that's installed into his bedroom and that's where you stay

If you try to escape too many times, he'll even go as far as chaining you to the metal construction

For extra security, while he's away, there's at least five of his servants guarding you

If you're to go somewhere, it's only with Leviathan himself

Even Barbatos and Glasyalabolas can't be trusted

Oh, and Foras? He's lucky to even be alive

Anytime they cross paths in the halls, he's hanging from the cieling in a matter of seconds and isn't let go until he's passed out from the lack of oxygen

       ༺☆༻

Ahahah, nope

That doesn't stop Beel

No, he dosen't even acknowledge the fact

You're his

Bael? You fell for him while he was dressed up as Beel and now you're just confused, silly Y/N.

Is he gaslighting you or himself? Kinda both, actually

Poor Bael is just witnessing the whole thing and can't do anything about it

Beel is just an unstoppable force and nothing can change his mind

It's probably best to just let him forget about his feelings towards you

Let's hope that'll happen within your lifetime, otherwise youv'e got a stalker that defies all natural and supernatural laws

       ༺☆༻

Now, Belphie might be asleep most of the time, but that still doesn't mean you get to just run around and wanna be with anyone else

Oh, it's Beleth you're into?

Hm, looks like Belphie has to have a lengthy talk with him about it then

Since he hates long convos, it has to be short, sweet and straight to the point

And that's how Beleth finds himself smothered by the king's power as he's practically threatening to make him evaporate if he doesn't back off from you and reject all your advances

(Actually, you can still be in relationship with Beleth outside of the king's palace, but if Belphie finds out from someone else or smells your scent on Beleth, you're both gone)

       ༺☆༻

Lucifer tries to be as mature as possible, but there's still this jealousy gnawing on him from the inside

Asks Buer to help him with some meditation and breathing excercises to chase away his feelings and the thoughts

As one of the Seraphims, he had to learn to share God's love and this comes in handy

Actualy, what's wrong with having more than one partner? This is Hell, afterall...

The rest of his nobles know not to bring up you or Marbas in the same sentence or even the same context

Luci, being the demon of pride and all, firmly believes, that your feelings for Marbas are just temporary and soon you'll come to realise which demon is superior to that sex-crazed maniac

If things take a little too long for his liking, however, he's not against serving you a special type of tea strained through his underwear to speed things up

But don't worry, he's doing this for your own good :)

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

Not sure how old Gidel is but how about we get to see him and Cheka meeting? and then big bros Leona and Fellow can watch their kids play with each other haha

So tell me, do you wanna go?

Fellow liked to think of himself as decent at arithmetic. Numbers made sense, had clear-cut definitions to them. They could be manipulated in predictable ways. Added, subtracted, divided.

He also knew that children don't just magically multiply--which was why he did a hard double take when he glanced back and found two figures trotting after him, not one.

"... Who the hell's this?" Fellow demanded, thrusting his fox-tipped cane at the second boy. "You seen this guy before, Giddie?"

Gidel furiously shook his head.

The new child, a lion cub with a fiery orange mane, stared up at Fellow with wide caramel eyes. “Hiya! Have you seen my ojitan? I'm lookin' for him."

"Your ojitan?" Fellow blinked. He combed through the NRC staff in his head. Not a single lion beastman came to mind. Shoot, looks like I can't hold him for a handsome ransom. "Nope, can't say I have. You might be lookin' in the wrong place, kiddo. Try Foothill Town."

"I don't have enough money for the bus fare. I used what I had to take the bus here,” the bot explained. “Plus, Kifaji might still be waiting for me back in town.”

Kifaji? Must be the brat’s babysitter.

"Well, sorry. Afraid I can't help ya. C'mon, Giddie. Let's get going." Fellow turned and took a few paces. The familiar clumsy footsteps of his little brother didn't follow.

He stopped and glanced back, finding Gidel pawing at the pendant looped around the lion cub's neck. It was beaded with vibrant colors, with a large circular silver medallion and a cerulean feather hanging off of it.

"Oh! You like my necklace?"

Gidel nodded.

"Hehe. Kifaji says it's my special charm. It helps me find my way home when I'm lost." A pause. "Do you wanna try it on since you don't have one?"

Gidel's eyes widened. He reached for his top hat and offered it to the cub. A fair trade, he seemed to suggest.

"Oi, Gidel!" Fellow hissed. "Now's not the time for fun and games!"

His protests went unnoticed, however. The lion cub plopped the top hat on red mane, and Gidel slipped the feathered pendant over his head.

"Ahahah! You look so good in that!"

Gidel shyly waved a hand at the other child. You too.

"Your name's Gidel?" The lion cub gave a huge grin. "I'm Cheka. Let's be friends!"

Shock slipped over his facial features. Friends? Gidel hadn't thought it possible. He moved around too much, could never plant his feet in the ground.

Something in his chest fluttered with excitement. Friends, for real? Could he really have them?

“Oh no, ya don’t!”

Suddenly, Cheka was yanked back by the scruff of his shirt. Gidel, too, fell backward, pulled by Fellow by the sleeve. He had half a mind to scold Gidel for talking to strangers--but his mouth went dry when he met the gaze of another beast.

Green, proud.

"Y-You're...!!"

"Ojitan!!" Cheka squealed in delight.

"Don't 'ojitan' me!" Leona scowled, keeping his grip on the child firm. "You keep runnin' off from your guards like that, and ol' Kifaji will blow a blood vessel. He wouldn't stop spam calling me until I nabbed you for him. You're going back to the old coot ASAP."

"Noooo, I wanted to play with you and my new friend!" Cheka protested, flailing his limbs.

"Not on my watch, you aren't. Kiss your ‘new friend’ good-bye.” Leona glared at the top hat Cheka wore. “And trade that back.”

“Hold on a sec!!” Fellow cried out. “Did you just say this kid has bodyguards?!”

Bodyguards… and related to this pompous NRC student… That means he’s loaded!! Well, at least his parents are. Operation Handsome Ransom is still possible!!

“Heeey, Cheka-kun! How would you like to come over for a playdate with Giddie?” Fellow asked sweetly, honey dripping from his voice as he wrung his hands together. (Gidel looked confused until Fellow elbowed him, forcing the boy to give a vigorous nod.)

Leona narrowed his eyes at the conman. "Nice try, omnivore. That trick won't work on me. Find some other sucker. Cheka, we're leaving."

"Ojitaaan, lemme down! I don’t wanna leave yet!”

"No."

"C-Come back, Cheka-kun! This Uncle Fellow Honest-sama has a neat magic trick to show you!"

“Go away!”

"...!!"

"By the Sevens..." Leona groaned. He could feel a migraine coming on. "Let it go already!!"

[ghost-likes-drawing]

Ahahah look at tallulah

In the back corner above Phil's head. She's ready to go. Loving Ms. Girl's character development from "nope, don't like new eggs please don't make me hang with them" to "I will clock this creep if you lay a hands on my god sister"

[juniperjellyfish]

ALRIGHT NOBODY PANIC

BUT IT CAME OUT IN ENGLISH

I absolutely loved it. Here are my thoughts:

They should’ve renamed it “Fan Service” instead of Dream Team

I DID NOT REALIZE HOW MUCH I MISSED SEEING THE NINJA BACK TOGETHER

Izzy going on a tangent about Ninjago WilFilm and the other one that I forgot is amazing

That random girl talking about the ninja and their powers, and how Lloyd, “Despite being a fan favorite, the writers haven’t really-“ was so funny to me

OMG THEY MENTIONED THE HANDS OF TIME I was about out of hope for my boys Krux and Acronix

Seeing Nya’s new samurai suit was so good. It didn’t get enough love in Crystallized

Cole’s right! They don’t say Ninjaaaa Gooooo enough.

Zane being a little pissed about the cavalry was amazing

ELEMENTAL MASTERS OF SAND AHAHAH YES!!! I want more elemental masters

Speaking of which, the ninjas’ first reaction to time power stuff being those two is just so cool to me

Same with the little nightmare gremlin things. Lloyd thought they were Oni which is just- so cool.

Jay having a crisis is so on point

Kai and Logan bickering is everything to me. Especially Logan telling Kai he has a dumb voice

Jay making fun of Kai for losing is power is so funny. So plasmacoded

Poor Kai can’t catch a break. He just wants his powers, but NOPE!

Cole hanging out with the emo chick? Gays and lesbians unite!

PIXAL I MISS YOU! I LOVE YOU!! COME BACK!!!

As soon as Pixal showed up, my little sister started freaking out. I’m so proud

A little disappointed that she didn’t have any voice lines, but at least we saw her.

“But the Bounty always crashes!” CACKLING! YOU THINK THE NINJA WOULD THINK OF SOMETHING DIFFERENT BY NOW

Izzie freaking out over the fact that the ninja are there, and going up to Nya first just made me so happy. Because Nya, both in universe and out, gets the short end of the stick, so seeing Izzie go to her first was really sweet.

Seeing Kai and Cole on screen together reignited my passion for Lava Shipping

And seeing Jay and Nya together just made me so happy

Lloyd had a dragon!!!!! Hehehehehe

Omg I was so happy to see the og golden weapons again

I miss the bounty… the one Lloyd made just isn’t the same, it needs a dragon head and the tendency to die.

Kai taking to the kid at the end and fixing his crown was adorable

Now THIS is how you do a crossover!

So are the ninja just stuck there forever now? Are they like copies of their real selves? What’s the deal? Will Kai get his fire back?

[beauty-and-passion]

TMA - Chapters 111-120: Best boys save everything

You asked for one single post. Even though you know how much I like to ramble.

And this is probably why you're the best readers ever and I am extremely lucky to have you all 💖

It's time to end season 3 and oh boy, there is a lot to talk about. Stuff happens, theories are born and, of course, we should take some time to show our appreciation to Elias.

So let's not waste any more time and jump right into it.

<< Main Masterlist < Previous post  _______________________________

MAG 111 - Family Business

My man Gerard Keay truly died. I thought they were joking, with their "ahahah Gerard is dead, sure". And we had Gertrude reading a book over his body, so I thought she was making some weird magic to bring him back to life.

But nope, he’s still dead. He’s just bound to a book now :(

At least he’s still a rebel and a sarcastic badass. I love him so much <3

And unlike Leitner and Elias, Gerard gives us very juicy answers! I said he’s the best and this chapter confirms it: he’s the best.

*

Next step for the Unknowing

I suppose Jon’s next step will be to visit that storage unit near Hainault. I even remember that key Jon found in the past seasons! Glad to see it coming back, can't wait to find out what it will open.

*

A stronger connection?

That’s intriguing. Despite her flaws, at least Gertrude seemed to not really enjoy her Eye powers. Jon, on the other hand, despite trying to save the world and being a good person, seems to like the persuasion powers a lot more.

I fear this isn’t a good sign. And I’m scared for his life, again. This man literally can’t stop worrying me.

*

Lore about the Lukases!

Let’s resume:

There’s no Fairchild family, only Simon Fairchild, the old man who wakes up and chooses violence - and he’s associated with the Vast.

The Lukases worship the Lonely. So I suppose the fog is just another facet of it.

These entities don’t care about the family, and we have already seen that multiple times. They always talk about “psychological profiles” and “being suitable.” Elias himself told Melanie her family was just one of the reasons he chose her, and actively used her background to his advantage.

*

The tragedy of Mary Keay (and Leitner)

While Mary Keay was obsessed with the Leitners and being close to these entities, poor Gerard just wanted to live a normal life and do normal stuff, but nope, spend your time with the supernatural, son.

My boy deserves a huge hug.

Also, this explains why he hated Leitner so much: if my mother kept obsessing over this guy and forced me to care about him and his stupid books, I would grow resentful too.

And it’s very telling that, once Gerard met Leitner, he let him go. In his eyes, Leitner was probably like a mythological figure, someone larger than life. But in the end, he was just a little man.

I can understand it, because that’s what I felt too: I also thought he was some kind of huge evil mastermind, but in the end, he was only a man blinded by hubris… just like Mary Keay.

I love the tragedy of these characters, who are clever enough to know about these entities, but stupid enough to believe they can be very close and trap/use them without repercussions.

Mary Keay basically died because she tried to… bind the book with her skin? I think? It’s a bit vague, but I don’t blame Gerard: that’s unsettling enough as it is.

*

Not gods, but fears

See? See? This is why Gerard is the best character. I know Elias is funny ahah killer and lazy and everything. But Gerard. My man Gerard.

Gerard gives us answers - including everything about the entities, so I don’t need to search for any list! Thank you, Gerard, for doing the job for me. And thanks Mr. Sims, for understanding that your readers would’ve been quite confused by the time they reached season 3, so it was necessary to make everything clearer.

So we’re not dealing with gods who feed on fear, but on gods who ARE fears. They take the shape of the primordial fears we humans have. Maybe because these fears mirror their real aspect, maybe because they got inspired by humanity’s fears and decided to take that shape.

And also, not all of them inspire fear, but “ooze into the world” without purpose. They just hang out. Or someone calls them.

… is this what Elias does with Peter Lukas? Does he summon him, just to play pranks? That’s why he’s “wasting each other’s time”?

Elias being a prankster was not on my bingo card, but now I really want to see him interact with Peter Lukas.

*

Positive god-like Powers?: A theory

The Powers change with our fears. So they’re not always the same, but evolve too. Super cool, super terrifying and it makes them even more fascinating.

But also, this:

I believe this sentence could have two purposes:

it’s a way for Mr. Sims to make his world even more terrifying and pessimistic, because there is no positive godly power that can come and help our heroes.

it’s the biggest Chekhov's gun ever made.

Honestly? I would love it if it’s a Chekhov’s gun. Also considering there is another series right after TMA… well, maybe there are positive, god-like Powers. After all, why should only the negative ones exist? Maybe the positive ones haven't appeared yet.

Or there’s another possibility. And to explain it, I would like to quote this part too:

Maybe it’s just me reading too much into things, but this conversation seems to imply something very interesting: the Power is based/shaped around a fear. However, the servants and avatars seem to control how this power should be expressed.

Think about Michael: he’s part of The Spiral, he’s The Distortion, he used his power to get people in and lose themselves inside it. Pretty standard “evil Power” activities.

However, he also used his power to “save” Martin and Tim in season 2 and bring them back to the Institute, without harming them.

If I am right, that means every avatar can control and direct the power bestowed upon them in more harmless, positive ways and not just to harm.

Sure, I have no idea how thin the line is and how much of said power the avatar can control/use in ways that are both convenient for their patron and normal people. But if the avatars have a certain range of action, this could mean a lot of things:

Gertrude’s choice to “sacrifice” Michael to The Spiral proved how much she trusted him, because she knew that, in the long run, he would’ve directed the power in more positive ways.

Gertrude’s final, hidden plan behind stopping all rituals implied giving each Power a trusted avatar - a human she knew would’ve directed that power for good.

If Jon becomes the new avatar for The Eye, he can direct the power differently and stop the ritual.

And finally: if a human becomes an avatar, if they have a wide range of actions and if the Powers evolve because fears are not always the same… then nothing stops them from switching into the positive god-like figures now missing.

I know this is a theory I’m making without the full picture - heck, I’m pretending to see far into something that, if I am right, would probably happen around the end of The Magnus Protocol. And I don’t even know what that series is about! But hey, that’s the fun of making theories ;)

*

A list of fourteen

Gerard, by being the wonderful man he is, gives me the list I was hoping and asking for: the one that includes all the most important entities.

Let’s all thank Gerard for his service and let’s examine Smirke’s list of fourteen:

The Eye: fear of being watched, followed, exposed. Hunger for knowledge.

The Spiral: fear of madness, of lies.

The End: fear of death.

The Stranger: fear of the uncanny and unknown.

The Lonely: fear of being alone.

The Desolation (the Lightless Flame): fear of pain, loss, cruel destruction.

The Slaughter: fear of pure, unpredictable violence (watches over wars).

The Vast: vertigo, agoraphobia, the dread of deep water/the universe, losing yourself in too much space.

The Buried: fear of small spaces, crushing, being trapped.

The Dark: fear of the dark (duh).

The Corruption (the Filth): disgust, fear of everything rotten, decay / infection.

The Web: fear of spiders, being manipulated or puppeted.

The Flesh: animalistic fear of being eaten / of the slaughterhouse, body twisted up.

The Hunt: predecessor of The Flesh, fear of hunting, killing each other.

Well, that puts A LOT of stuff into perspective. And it proves some of my points were right too.

As we already knew, The Distortion is part of The Spiral and the Spiral already attempted a ritual.

The Death is associated with The End.

The Stranger is associated with all the weird stuff we already mentioned (like the clowny dolls).

The weird fog is part of The Lonely.

Michael Crew and Simon Fairchild are both associated with The Vast.

The Hive was just another facet of The Corruption.

The supernatural meat is The Flesh. Makes sense, but I liked how silly “the supernatural meat” sounded.

The idea that those Powers can have a predecessor is very cool.

Now that I know all of them and their names, it makes me want to re-read all statements and find out to which Power they’re connected. Maybe I’ll do it once I’ll finish the series.

*

The rituals

So:

Each Power has a ritual

It takes a ton of time to build up to a level of power when they can try it and if it fails it’s back to square one

The rituals shift the world enough for the Power to come through

A Power that comes through can bring others akin to it

Now the Powers take what they get/the weak ones, but if a ritual succeeds, they can get all the fear/people they want

The people who help them do it for power, obsession or because they can feed on it

The rituals happen quite close to each other, so we got the Great Twisting, next is the Unknowing, then there's the Watcher's Crown

Well guys, here it is the final boss of season 5. I thought it would’ve been the Unknowing but nope, now it’s pretty clear the big final boss will be this ritual. And considering we have nothing by now, I suppose Jon will have to read a shit ton of stuff, before understanding how to stop it - hence why two more seasons.

I hope stopping the ritual wouldn’t involve Jon putting himself in danger, but considering everyone wants him dead and he’s getting closer and closer to The Eye… I fear for his life. Again.

*

GERRY!!!

GERRY

GERRY

GERRY

Sorry Elias, you’re still my favorite bitch, but Gerry has my heart. He got me with his rebel spirit, now he revealed he’s also a cinnamon roll. I love Gerard and I hope the fandom loves him too, because he deserves all the love of the world.

_______________________________

MAG 112 - Thrill of the Chase

So the statement is about… mmmh, my bet would be on The Slaughter, considering that it starts from a random guy who tried to kill this group of friends and this act of unpredictable violence triggered something inside each of them, pushing all members of this club to hunt and kill each other.

Uhm, but it’s also connected with The Hunt, so it could be about it. But the Hunt also shifted into The Flesh… my first bet goes on The Slaughter.

Statement aside, it’s nice to get more updates regarding Daisy and Basira:

Daisy is now Elias’ killer but also Elias’ chauffeur, considering he called her to pick up Jon. Elias using everyone to work for him will never stop being funny.

Jon came back to say hi and went to the storage unit - after picking the key, I suppose.

Tim, Martin and Melanie disappeared. Considering Tim has been plotting something since he found out the Circus is involved, I fear he’s building… I don’t know, some kind of bomb to put in the theater and blow the whole place up.

Basira and Daisy have weird dreams! They’re involved with some Power, aren’t they? Can’t wait to find out which one.

MAG 113 - Breathing Room

Oh, my bad: Martin and Melanie were not with Tim at the old abandoned theatre to put explosives everywhere. They were with Jon, finding explosives everywhere.

And Martin is, apparently, all for touching the C4. Maybe holding a knife is “out of character” for Peter Lukas, but this guy has a clear bit of insanity, considering he can’t stop putting his hands on something dangerous.

The statement is… well, okay? Random guy serves The End, by entering other people’s dreams. And guess what, this statement in particular comes right after Daisy and Basira talked about dreams. Will we see dreams come back too and become a main topic - maybe in the upcoming season?

Now that I think about it: what’s exactly the difference between servants and avatars? The two terms are both used in the statement - once by Adelard Dekker to talk about Justin Gough and once by Jon, who refers to him as “an avatar of The End”. So… are the terms interchangeable? I thought it was more like:

Servants: minions/slaves who can only obey and access a limited amount of the Power’s… well, power.

Avatars: figures with a lot more power, who are like embodiments of the Power (or their facets) on Earth. Like Michael for The Spiral, Elias for The Eye, Michael Crew/Simon Fairchild for The Vast and so on.

Maybe this will be clarified later on, for now, I’ll keep considering them like this.

MAG 114 - Cracked Foundation 

Hill Top Road is back! And I feel it will be back even more in season 4! After all, it’s connected to The Lightless Flame and that weird wooden box at the foundation of the tree with the apple and the spiders - which means The Desolation and The Web will come back and I can’t wait to meet the spider lady again.

Jon himself said Hill Top Road is “a thread that’s been nagging at me for a while” and even expresses his desire to visit the place himself… so I feel we will see more of it in season 4.

Tim and Jon finally talk! And Tim clarifies why he’s so weird and disappears! I thought it was for revenge reasons and revenge reasons only, but it was deeper than that: Sasha’s situation left a mark on him and, as he says, he doesn’t know the others well enough. And if we add the tape recorders who are literally everywhere and sometimes turn on on their own, how can he trust anyone? How can he be sure some other weird supernatural entity won’t listen and hurt him?

Fantastic, I can already see Tim jumping head-in and trying to kill the dolls by himself, because "how can I trust you all?" This man is more dead every second he speaks.

HOLY SHIT WHAT?! The clowny dolls took the skin of George Icarus (I suppose we’ll soon find out who this guy is) and Gertrude’s?! When I heard her name, I was aghast. These little fuckers! Since one of the Archivists wasn’t available, why not take the other? Holy shit, the final battle will be incredible.

And I was right about the plan! Even though I was joking, by saying Tim was going to blow up everything! But I can’t blame Gertrude nor Jon: why attempt to stop the dolls one by one, when you can just blow up the entire place and call it a day? Best decision ever, I suggest doing the same for every ritual.

MAG 115 - Taking Stock

Statement of Mikaele Salesa? We’re really calling back all the people we left aside in the previous seasons, didn’t we? And considering Salesa said he could’ve talked about how he started the business, because “that’s a story I haven’t told you yet”, I feel that season 4 will be all about exploring the backstories of other recurring characters.

Especially because this guy worked with Leitner in the past! This explains how he knows so well these creepy artifacts and how confidently he says the Institute wants a story (“You want to know how I came by this rule? I know you do.”): he knows about The Eye, of course.

Per se, Salesa’s statement isn’t particularly useful: The Flesh is here, this time in the shape of a meat grinder and Salesa’s cook gets a bit too attached to it. Hence why Salesa, being the perfectly normal, sane guy he is, kills the cook and successfully sells the creepy meat grinder. Good job, I suppose.

I love Jon’s take on it: sure sure, creepy evil meat-god and everything, but hey, a good meal is still a good meal.

And you know what? I. Absolutely. Agree. If there were a creepy pastry/chocolate/pasta monster out there, I would still enjoy every meal with a goddamn smile on my face.

Helen! The Distortion is back! And its conversation with Jon is very, very interesting:

HELEN: I took a man, wandering the halls of an old tenement. He’s dead now, he never even came close to finding me. It was nourishing, but… ARCHIVIST: But… HELEN: I didn’t like it. (...) HELEN: I just want… I just want to feel better. (...) HELEN: I have never told you a lie, Archivist. I wouldn’t dare. I, I just thought you might understand. ARCHIVIST: Uh… How could I possibly… HELEN: We’re both changing, Archivist. I had hoped, that together –

The Distortion/The Spiral changed. And when it changed, it tried to do the same thing it did before (aka killing a guy) and it was nourishing… but it didn’t like it. The Spiral did what all other Powers do and relied on fear and death and it didn’t like it. It changed - Helen’s words, not mine.

This could imply my theory about the positive god-like Powers is correct. This could be a huge hint about a very far future, in which the Spiral might evolve into a positive god-like Power.

It’s already changing, by its own admission: nothing stops it from evolving, by adopting a more “positive” approach - especially if this new approach proves itself more beneficial for the Power.

And if this is a hint and everything is evolving according to my theory, then what Helen is saying has the potential to become huge. It could be the beginning of a new way, for the Powers, to deal with humanity - not by relying on fear, but on something else, something more positive. Like, for example, a Power made of lies and madness can evolve into protection/self-preservation.

But let’s put my theory on the side: maybe this isn’t the beginning of a possible positive evolution of the Powers. Still, this is very huge! One Power (the only neutral one, as far as we know) is approaching Jon, not to kill him but to ask for help.

That’s Jon’s chance: he can easily make an ally out of Helen. He can have someone who, for once, is on his side and doesn’t want to kill him. He can even make his own crew of Powers and fight his enemies. So, what does he do? 

He sends Helen away.

Oh, no. No no no. Jon has been clever until now, he had made some good choices. But this? This is the worst choice EVER. And I fear it will come back to bite him: I mean, he had the perfect chance to get a powerful ally and threw it away only because he was angry?!

Sorry, Jon: I always support you, but this time, you did something very stupid and I fear there will be consequences. Huge consequences.

MAG 116 - The Show Must Go On

Awww, look at Elias. He wants to warn the others about how the Unknowing might take place. He’s a bitch, but he can also be helpful, when he wants to.

Speaking of the statement, it’s funny because I remembered the name Wolfgang von Kempelen and I remembered the Mechanical Turk. So I checked and yep, I was right: it existed in real life! That’s cool, I don’t know if all the other things mentioned here and there are also taken from reality, but it was fun to see one here.

So, the Unknowing itself is very trippy and crazy-looking and I love this kind of stuff. But I also loved how, out of the blue, this soldier comes out with a fucking cannon and stops the ritual just by shooting at the Turk.

That means rituals can be stopped by any other avatar - or anyone else in general. And this avatar of The Slaughter seems interesting: why did he stop the ritual? Was he trying to stop all rituals, like Gertrude? Or did he just have something against The Stranger? No idea, but I would love to know more.

It’s also very funny how the Unknowing can be simply stop by using violence. It turns out the women of this series were right all along: wake up and choosing violence can really save the day.

Speaking of rituals and Gertrude, she also says that “Disrupting the others has been successful largely because I was able to do so before they had reached any form of culmination”, which means:

Gertrude stopped other rituals before the Spiral’s and I want to know which ones

Jon & gang should be fast, before the creepy clowns start making everything weird and trippy

I love how Elias keeps running the Archives as if it’s a normal place. Sure, you’re doing a trip to save the world and we’re all servants of a supernatural evil god but hey, claiming expenses is important, so if you take a coffee, keep your recipe.

Oh no, Martin is not coming and Melanie not coming either, oh nooo- yes, yes, I know it’s all part of the famous plan mentioned in the previous MAGs and I can’t wait to find out what it is.

Tim, my beloved Tim! He will come because of course he will, fuck Elias who is trying to keep him alive: my man has decided he wants to die, so he will die and no one can stop him.

And NOW he just told us how he will die. Well, at least he will be happy. That’s the only thing that matters: I am devastated by this, but it’s Tim’s decision and I can only accept it.

_______________________________

MAG 117 - Testament

Oh, what a promising - and scary title! Well, it really conveys the feeling we’re approaching an end.

*

Jon’s part:

I am proud of my boy for finally trusting everyone, except Elias. Fuck Elias, even if he’s a funny bitch. And great job, Jon, you’ve learned from your mistakes and I am happy for you.

George Icarus was Jurgen Leitner?! Holy shit, that was NOT something I expected. Welp, it looks like The Stranger has very powerful skins, this time. I am scared for the Unknowing.

*

Basira’s part:

How did you end up saving the world? No idea, girl, but I get you: I would ask myself the same, if I were you.

Is there a subtle crush for Daisy or am I reading too much into things? Sure, they’re just very close friends, but the way she talks about Daisy, how she’s a fixed point in her life… maybe it’s just an impression.

*

Melanie’s part:

As every other woman, Melanie decided to wake up and choose violence. Or go to bed and choose violence. Same thing.

She wants Elias DEAD. And I fear she will succeed, sooner or later. Maybe during this plan? Who knows?

*

Martin’s part:

“This feels like an ending, or something, like nothing can go back to normal after this”. Well, now I fear for him too. Jon won’t die - he cannot die. But Martin? What will happen to him? Last time, it was Sasha who got “eaten” by a Power…  will something similar happen to Martin too?

Oh great. Martin is going to come in contact with The Web / become a servant of it. He’s calling it all day, every day, 24/7. I wouldn’t be surprised if the spider lady pays him a visit.

“I need them to be safe. I need him to be ok.” Martin is still down bad for Jon, good to see some things never change. I ship them SO MUCH.

“Also, I get to burn some stuff so that’s cool.” See? I said Martin is a bit fucked up and I was right: he’s a pyromaniac too. And I stan him, because I also like to set stuff on fire. Sure, I do it in my fireplace not on the job, but same thing.

*

Daisy’s part:

Very long, very explicative, maybe a bit too wordy. I would’ve cut out some parts, just to keep is short and simple.

*

Tim’s part:

Tim isn’t making his statement for himself or Jon: he’s making it for The Eye. He talks directly to the evil god and has no problem showing how much he hates it.

Tim has the biggest balls ever and I am so sad he’s going to die. He’s such a badass <3

Tim wants to reconfirm he’s going to die soon, but he won’t die in a corner: he will take inspiration from the women of this series, especially Gertrude, the woman who, more than any other, woke up and chose violence. Tim will also wake up but not choose just violence: he will go for ultra-violence.

AND THE SATISFACTION WHEN HE ENDS THE STATEMENT? You can literally hear the angry smile, the bitterness. He knows this is his last statement and he couldn’t be happier.

*

And then, the last part:

That’s so powerful - and fucked up at the same time. Jon didn’t burn Gerry’s page because he wanted to keep him around as his personal dictionary. He didn’t even mean to ask him anything. He didn’t do it, just because of the knowledge inside the page. Because getting rid of the knowledge was the real problem. And when he did, he felt physical pain.

And that, of course, made me think:

Is this one of the flaws of being a servant of the Eye? You cannot destroy any kind of knowledge, because it would physically hurt you?

Martin talked about burning stuff. Is this what he’s going to do, to get rid of Elias? Burn things until the bitch is writhing in pain on the floor, pleading for Martin to stop? If that’s the case, I agree with the plan. Elias deserves to suffer a little.

_______________________________

MAG 118 - The Masquerade

HOLY SHIT I WAS RIGHT MARTIN’S PLAN WAS TO BURN STATEMENTS!

Unfortunately for him, the bastard didn’t fall on the floor, crying in pain. But at least Martin managed to deal with him in such a badass way that made me fall in love.

He’s right, why do people keep underestimating him? Don’t they know that the most feral guy is always the quiet, calm one?

Martin’s crush is so obvious, even Elias, the magic lazy bastard, knows about it.

And since Elias is magic, lazy and especially a bastard, he deals with Martin just like he did with Melanie: by hitting him in his weakest spot.

And… wow. Just wow. I should’ve imagined Martin’s background was fucked up: it’s usually the kindest, calmest, quietest people to have the most messed up situations.

In his case, it’s especially heavy: just imagine, loving and caring about your mother and got only hatred in return. Hatred, because you’re the spitting image of your abusive father.

Damn.

And you know what? This makes me appreciate Martin even more. Just think of how fucking strong this man is:

he dealt with his mother’s hatred for all of his life and yet, instead of being bitter and angry at everyone else, he decided to be a good, friendly person.

Despite knowing about his messed up family, he elaborated a plan that included Elias torturing him about said messed up family. He put himself on the line and dealt with a huge trauma, only to let everyone get on with the plan.

He endured Elias’ mental torture like a boss and managed to calm down and keep himself collected and focused.

Even though Melanie’s suggestion of killing Elias was very tempting, Martin kept his focus on the plan and didn’t let his emotions get the best of him.

Elias, you’re still my favourite bitch… but I hope you like company on top of my list, because Martin is becoming my favorite character. Sure, I love Jon and I’m proud of him like a mother. But Martin… Martin is incredible. He’s amazing, he’s a badass, he’s so strong and so kind - UUURGH.

In the meantime, the “let’s blow up the Unknowing” gang, is dealing with said Unknowing starting. And I am so SO afraid of what will happen - especially because the gang includes “trigger-happy” Daisy and “death-wish” Tim.

However, if Tim dies, because Daisy misses and shoots him, I will die laughing.

_______________________________

MAG 119 - Stranger and Stranger

Holy shit, we listened to the Unknowing! And it was… well, less trippy than I imagined, but more on the “everyone is very confused” side.

Still, it’s weirdly coherent: The Stranger is a Power based on the unknown and the stranger (ah ah), so of course its effect would include making everyone feel confused/unable to understand and taking away all clarity and knowledge from people’s minds.

And of course Nikola used the day of her victory, to diss Jon through the voices and skins of Gertrude and Leitner. Pretty basic torment, I expected something like this and I’m okay with that.

I hope someone made a fanart of this scene, because I need to see it. I need to see a lot of fanarts, once I finish this series. If my blog will turn into a photo album, you’ve been warned.

Loved how Daisy went in full “wild rage mode” and started to tear throats and kill everyone, while laughing hysterically. I already knew she was insane and radiating killing energy, so it was coherent with her character to contrast the Unknowing with blind fury.

And yes, "the hunter" is a pretty cool name.

Also, it took me a while to understand who the fuck Sarah was and then I found it out: Sarah Baldwin from MAG 28! Well, now I understand why she was peeling her own skin off and putting it on: of course she was a creepy doll too.

And then, just like the hero he is and will always be, Tim rushes in ready to kill, recognizes his old enemy (Nikola being Grimaldi is obvious and I’m pissed with myself I didn’t realize it sooner) and decides to go out with a bang.

TIM IS OUR FOREVER HERO. I love him so much and I am so sad but he’s also so badass…!

And yet, I don’t feel like it’s a shame he died. On the contrary, this is probably the best possible way for him to die. He dies by closing his arc, getting his revenge, like the great character he has always been.

_______________________________

MAG 120 - Eye Contact

What. The. Fuck.

Two seasons in which he did absolutely nothing, now Elias is making statements too. This man decided to do everything now, from showing how badass he is, to being a huge bitch. With every new episode, I fall more in love with him.

Jon’s dreams are a huge trip and I love that. I noticed all the references to previous MAGs and a lot of things I didn’t recognize, but oh boy, that was super fun. I hope some good artist made an animatic out of it, because Jon’s entire dream sequence is incredible and I would love to see it.

"All through it the shadow is above him, the shape that gazes down upon him, bloodshot and unblinking.  (...)  His only fear is that even here at the centre of the world, barrelling towards a lightless, infinite tomb, still he will be watched. Still he will watch."

So Jon goes around and looks at stuff and moves through this dream flow, all with a huge, unblinking eye above him watching everything? That’s terrifying, I adore it <3

"And at last, the Archivist looks up. At last, he looks into the eye that sees all, and knows all, and clutches at the secret terrors of your heart. The Ceaseless Watcher of all that is, and all that was; the voracious, infinite hunger the tears at his soul, invoking him to discover, to observe, to experience all, and everything, and forever. It stares into him, and it stares out of him, and he is falling into the devouring eternity of its pupil. He wants to cry out in horror, but he cannot. He. Is. Whole."

I said it the previous two times, I’ll say it again: I love how humans describe their relationship with the Powers. Fine, in this case it’s not Jon talking about it - it’s Elias describing what Jon feels in his dream. Still, it conveys very well both the terrifying power of The Eye, it confirms how it works (it truly is a Power hungry for any kind of knowledge) and it reconfirms how the avatars love the connection with their patron. The Eye terrifies Jon, he would scream and yet, it also makes him feel whole.

Beautiful, amazing, brilliant.

And, honestly, I like The Eye. It’s a voracious hunger for knowledge taken to the extreme. It’s not even a full negative, nightmarish force: the hunger for knowledge defined humans since our birth: The Eye is just an “overwhelming” version of that.

It also works pretty well with my theory of the positive god-like powers: something like The Eye can easily evolve from a horrifying force, to something that thrives on human’s push for curiosity and knowledge.

Wait, since when did Elias become Jon’s mentor? This man, who did nothing except now, suddenly decides he’s a mentor and talks like a mentor.

I love Elias, he’s so goddamn funny.

Oh, so that was Martin’s plan! See, see when I say that my man Martin is a good, kind guy? He could’ve done anything, but he chose to put Elias in jail.

Martin is too good for this world, hence why he deserves everything and to survive all this shit <3

ELIAS: I must admit I’m impressed, Martin. I knew you were all planning something, of course, but I didn’t believe you specifically would have the, ah, capacity for boldness that you displayed. Took me quite by surprise.

FINALLY! Finally, someone acknowledges Martin is bold and clever and amazing! Martin has my full support: I firmly believe that, by the end of this series, everyone will finally acknowledge how cool he is.

When I read this part, I stood up. I am not kidding. I fucking stood up and applauded Elias.

I am fucking serious.

I stood up and applauded, because even Elias himself acknowledged he’s lazy.

I said it since season one, when I was theorizing everything and suspecting everyone. I said it since his very first appearance. I made it my own meme: ah ah Elias is lazy and does nothing.

Now, Elias himself admits he’s lazy. We came full circle, people. I cannot be happier. This season finale is the best season finale that ever season final-ed.

Elias is such a boss: he accepts to go to jail with the calm and composure of a perfect Englishman. All while saying goodbye to Martin, like a friend who goes on a holiday trip for a while and says goodbye to his besties.

How can I ever hate this man? He’s fucking hilarious in everything he does, I adore him.

But Martin is a spoilsport, so he sends Elias to jail. I am sad, but I know he will come back. He must come back. I want more of Elias being a total bitch.

PETER: Oh! No, nonono, no – not in any metaphysical sense, no. He’s still very much the – how did he insist on phrasing it? – ah, yes, the “beating heart” of the Institute. But practically speaking, he can hardly fulfill his more mundane managerial duties from a jail cell.

“His managerial duties”? Which ones? Sitting on his ass all day and constantly watching everyone with his Eye powers?

And so, Peter Lukas steps in.

Now, I know I must be wary of this guy. He’s a Lukas, he’s Elias’ best pal, he has ties with The Lonely. He’s dangerous, I have no doubts about that.

But he seems such a nice guy! He’s so cheerful and nice and cute! Urgh, why is he so cute? I want to hug him, but I fear to do anything, because I feel like he will let his patron eat me if I do something he doesn’t like.

PETER: Well, if you could send Melanie and Basira up to see me, I’d like to introduce myself. After that, I’ll put through a couple of weeks of paid leave for you all – I think giving everyone some space to try and deal with the loss of Tim and Daisy might do everyone some good. [MARTIN SIGHS] Oh, and if you want to talk to a counselor, the Institute will of course cover any cost.

Oh gosh, why is he so nice and caring? I would’ve fully trusted him two seasons ago, now I am in paranoid mode and I fear what he has in store.

Also: Tim is dead and oh wow what a surprise, we already knew that. But Daisy? Daisy is dead?! Seriously?! I thought she was just trapped in the coffin! Are you telling me she died? Like this?! Are we really sure she’s dead?

I won’t trust it, until everyone confirms it. And even then, I will probably still not believe it.

Perfect, now I fear him even more. This man is dangerous. Elias is dangerous too, but he’s a funny bitch and he makes his evil aura evident to everyone.

Peter Lukas, on the other hand, acts all kind and nice and friendly. And so, it seems like he’s harmless. But deep down, who knows how fucking terrifying this guy is?

Now that I think about it, he’s a bit like Martin, isn’t he?

Oh gosh, please, don’t tell me Martin dies in season 4. Please no. Sasha died, Tim died, Martin cannot be next. Even if the whole series seems to imply that. Even if I had an old theory about how every series would end with the death of one of the main 4 characters.

I don’t care, Martin won’t die, I refuse to accept it. Because if it happens, I will have to enter the story with the sole purpose of killing Peter Lukas.

_______________________________

In conclusion

Best. Finale. Ever.

Elias has been a wonderful treat for the entire season and he became even better in the last episode. Every time he appeared, he made me smile. Everything he did, he made me giggle. I love this man and I am sure we will have more of him. This series need an evil bitch and that role is his and his only.

The other characters have been wonderful as well: Tim went out in a blaze of glory, just like he deserves. Martin had an amazing glow-up and showed, once again, how incredible he can be. Melanie went from “confused af” to potential killer. And Basira and Daisy have something going on we still have to know.

And yes, I still refuse to believe Daisy died like this, almost off-screen.

Jon has been growing… in more ways and not all of them are good. He’s more aware of the Powers, of what they’re going to do, of the challenges that are waiting for him in the future. He has a job to do: he must stop all rituals and save the world.

However, he’s also pulled towards The Eye. The more he learns about these entities and their secrets, the more he develops his supernatural powers, the more he interlaces with his evil patron.

Which of the two forces will win him over? The one who wants to save humanity or the one who wants to feel complete with The Eye? Will the first one be strong enough to help him stop all rituals (Eye’s included) or will Jon succumb to his physical need to be one with the evil god?

Once again, I fear for his life. And I fear for Martin’s life too, because they’re the only two left of the “main four”: Sasha died in season one, her replacement died in season two, Tim died in season three.

I refuse to believe Martin dies in season four and Jon in season five… even though the series seems to imply this. I refuse to believe it. They cannot die. They’re the protagonists, come on! And there’s a ton of things to do!

In conclusion, we learned stuff, but there are still many mysteries left, many more things to learn and a lot of statements to read. And there is a new shift in management, which both terrifies me and hypes me up!

Peter Lukas is right about one thing: they will surely do great things. And I can’t wait to see them.

-> Next post

Yuhhh I’m back!! I was supposed to post this on the first of June but I got a bit lazy (╥_╥)

Uhh anyways here it is eat up babies!! ٩(ᐛ)و

🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧🫧

Jeongin was in a problem….now jeongin had a love/hate relationship with skin contact but when it came to tickling it was rather…confusing to him

Did he love or hate it?, a while ago he was tickled by Han and when thinking back on it he had a feeling..he couldn’t really describe it it was like a need..he craved it so much.

“Crap…I need to pull myself together I can’t be thinking like this”

He tried to distract himself with anything else but he couldn’t get rid of this feeling so he did research a bit on it but really didn’t get much information on it until he thought of something….maybe his lovely hyung leader would know?, yet he was scared and a bit shy to even talk to him about this..

Morning passes and jeongin still couldn’t get the guts to talk to Chan about this feeling and while he was lost in his own thoughts Chan was one to notice how off innie was all day and notice at dinner that the young boy was zoning out and Chans father skills kicked in knowing he had to check up on him

Jeongin was laying on his bed everytime he thought about tickling it really flustered him he just couldn’t talk to anyone about it, heck he couldn’t say the word either after a while he got up and slowly made his way to the leaders room filled with nervousness.

He took a deep breath before entering.

“H-hyung..i-can I talk to you about something?” Chan sat there as if he had expected the boy to come in “so do I innie come sit next to me” jeongin was baffled and sat with him.

“I’ll save you the trouble for this sweetie I already know” jeongin stayed quiet processing what just left the leaders mouth “w-what?? How-??”

“Simple I looked at your phone and saw you were trying to do research” the fox boy sat there face filled with redness

“It’s cute tho that the word tickle can get you all like this~”

Jeongin slowly got up face getting more red if possible “y-you know im tired so maybe we can save this for another day haha-“ Chan cuts the boy off “nope I’m helping my baby~” jeongin booked it to the door now regretting having this talk “oh no you don’t Cutie” Chan lifted the boy up wrapping his arms around his legs and taking him back to the bed “now let me help you innie”

“H-hyung-“

“Shush sweetheart you know you want me to help you so let me do so okay?”

The boy nodded shyly letting him do so, Chan started off light and soft softly tickling his sides as jeongin still protested a bit

“Hyuhung pleahease stohohp” Chan continued to tease his sides as jeongin started fake protesting this and Chan could tell he was acting like he didn’t want this.

“Fine I’ll go harder than” he dug into his ribs “STOHOP TEASING MEHEHE HAHAHAHA!”

“Why didn’t you come to me about this cutie?~”

“STAHAHP YOUR MEAN!”

“Oh ok I’ll stop” Chan stopped keeping his fingers above the boys belly and jeongin started whining not meaning for it to actually stop “hyungggg”

“What? Little one you said for me to stop or were you lying hm~?” He said as he wiggled his fingers at him

“Stoppp teasing me k-keep going…please” I.n said quietly getting shy all over again

“Awww cute! Baby bread wants this so adorable~” Chan went back to tickling the cutie

“EEK! HYUHAHANG NAHAHAHAHAH PLEASE”

“My little fox is too ticklish can he not handle this~”

Chan tickled each rib again but slowly making the boy go insane “NOHOHOH! STOP AHAHAHAHAH-!”

Chan gave no mercy and continued for a while longer until he saw the boy getting weak so he decided to finish off.

“Get ready sweetie~” Chan blew raspberries on his neck nonstop.

“NOHOHOHOHO-NO AHHH! NOHOT THEHRE PLEHEHEASE CHANNIE HYUNG AHAHAH-!!”

“One more place foxy~” he blew a raspberry on his bellybutton “NO NAHAHAHAH AHH! STOPP” the boy squirmed violently trying to make it stop

“Alright I’m done!” Chan said smiling at the adorable boy who was worn out “haah I hate you-“

“Come here cutie let’s go get ice cream as a reward for taking this”

This one really burnt my brain I was thinking so hard on this one when writing it but yayyy liked how this one turned out (•̀ᴗ•́)و

I was looking at your master post and noticed it on had a YouTube. And I think my brain shattered.

I thought I’ve been following you for less then a year. Nope. Been consuming for nearly three. And I just never realised the art style was so similar. Wo. Now I’m down right curious if anyone else has had that happen. You are awesome. Your old mc animations was what got me to try animating.

Ahahah mmmm yeah. This. Hahahjgjg. This happens pretty often. I have the habit of quietly creating a new blog/account for every new fandom. So. My personal record so far - one person managed be my fan four times at once because they were loving my YouTube and then reading two of my comics on two different blogs and then also being a fan of a TV series I work on. They thought they were appreciating the art of four different people:D

At work I was thinking about how in non-fantasy au’s Catra is often Latina, and I know it’s because someone on the crew (Nate?) mentioned it

But Adora is often just generic white, which is fine, but the part of me that’s a little obsessed with Iceland* was like. She's tall and blond. She should be Icelandic, duh.

But then I thought of the horror that would be trying to figure out her name ahahah

Because Iceland has a list of first names. You legally have to name your kid something off the list. You can apply to have new names added to the list, but they have to work with Icelandic spelling and grammar rules.

Yes I looked, Adora is not on the list, lol

Her last name would be even worse, it’s literally just your dad’s (or less often your mom’s) first name followed by -son, -dóttir, or (if you're non-binary) -bur.

For instance: my dad’s name was David, so I’d be Apríl Davíðsdóttir. Unless I wanted to use my mom’s name and then I’d be Kathleensdóttir, except there's not really any version of Kathleen on the name list.

(Yes this means sometimes a family of four people can all have different last names.)

(Tons of info on Wikipedia obv)

In au’s Adora’s last name is often Gray, and I did try google translating it and then looking it up on the name lists. Nope.

Anyway your choices would be: intentionally butchering Icelandic naming rules and apologizing in your author’s notes, finding someone Icelandic to see if they have any ideas, or deciding she was born in the USA or Canada or whatever and is just of Icelandic descent and ignoring all of that, which seems the likeliest option

(*I lived in Iceland as a kid for a couple of years thanks to the US military—there used to be an American military base there and my dad was in the Navy. I went back as a tourist in 2021, which is when I installed the Icelandic keyboard on my phone to make it easier to look up place names.)

THINGS THAT KEEP ME UP AT NIGHT

- “fix you” y/n never even coming close to the love toji has for his first wife

- Naomi and satoru(Literally everything regarding that)

- Naomi and yui( Literally everything regarding that as well)

- Home toji cheating on the supposed women he loves and everything y/n went through due to it(she didn’t get her happy ending:((( )

- What could’ve been with pm satoru and y/n

- Constantly hearing about how “good” naomi was to satoru even him himself still praising her in a way after what she did

- will we get a sundered or pm sequel or prequel (since home and fix you are honestly harder to see with a sequel atleast)

- does kai get annoyed/tired of the amount of asks they been getting lately 😞

Other stuff I was hoping you could answer 🥺

- did he genuinely love Naomi or did he just love her in terms of comfort? Could you explain the love he had towards her please(I’ll probably be heartbroken at the answer maybe but we love being miserable I guess lol)

- If naomi came into his life first would he date her first and last, and would yui even happen?!?!?

- ^ what would happen if y/n later on came into his life or he met both at the same time

- does satoru love yui or y/n more? What’s the difference between his love for them because when it comes to yui and y/n disappearing In the extra chapter and ask’s where you explain things, it seems like he’s more focused on y/n.

- once yui and y/n were in his life did they become the people he loved the most or did it eventually happen after his mom and Naomi weren’t in his life anymore or at some point

honestly i wanted them to end up tgt miserable without being able to have a kid while yui and y/n are in another country with toji and megumi🤭or a “Home” type ending where Gojo get’s everything thrown back at him 17393939 times harder

AHAHAH let me give my thoughts on some of this, they're really entertaining🤣

hmm pm satoru and yn could've had it all honestly.

im definitely thinking about how home yn didn't get a chance at happy ending too 🥹 (the humming tiktok sound didn't help :'>)

as for Satoru praising Naomi, yeah he's really grateful for what he did for him. she stayed w him at his lowest, he can't deny that 🥹 but what she did is not something he'll easily put behind. it almost ruined everything.

sequelssss idk, maybe when i have more time to write. as of now i am writing different things bc my interests switches really fast. like strangely fast, i kinda wanna get checked bc of this.

NOPE, kai's never annoyed w questions bc i really enjoy these stuff. even just reading your thoughts and reactions is very interesting to me. PLUS, i get a lot of ideas from them. they trigger ideas LMAO

Satoru loved naomi in that comfort way yes. bc she was really supportive and understanding towards him. like she didn't drop her even during those worsts of him. and the fact that she had to deal w his broken fam/baby momma issues too, yeah he admires her for that. but as for love like the "love-love" he has for y/n? no. he can't love anyone in the same level as yn.

he'd probably date naomi if she came first. that doesn't mean he wouldn't date yn once they get to know each other tho. a lot of things that could lead them to each other can happen. he'd probably wouldn't want a child early on in the rs if he and Naomi were dating. even yui was a surprise (not unwanted tho <3)

if he met both at the same time, he's going w yn lmao. he won't be able to stop it.

he's more focused on yn bc yn is mom. where mom is, yui is LMAO that doesn't mean he loves yui less tho. like w yui its more of nurturing and guiding. while with yn, ofc its romantic.

yn became the love of his life when he woke up one morning and thought of how nice it was to wake up next to her warmth🥺it was like she couldn't ask for anything anymore. along with that was yui ofc, she was pregnant that time and when she was born was one of his happiest days. even when he was with naomi, satoru has accepted that yn will always be the love of his life. it was just that in his mind he just gotta move on and forget bc back then it felt like nothing good will ever happen in their rs again. until he saw her w toji and then bam, he woke up. he's not having that everyday, he can't do it.

btw the home ending for naomi and satoru would've been fire. like they live the rest of their life regretting the decisions they made. but i think satoru wouldn't be able to handle being away from yn and yui even if that meant being an outsider in their new life alone 🥹
