Whumptober 24/31
No. 24: Alternate Venom
Considering the twists and turns and tricks in this dungeon, Sky expected it to take longer to find the boss. It took him less than fifteen minutes after he left his brothers.
It should have soothed him. It should have been evidence that he made the right choice. Sky found himself standing outside the large doors instead, listening to the beast inside, with his hand tracing the odd marks on the stone. It looked like something had been on the door once but had since been torn away.
Sky couldn’t find his brothers, but he could find the door leading to the boss of this awful dungeon. Find it quickly and easily, too. Frowning, Sky looked back the way he came. No monsters or tricks impeded him.
Legend had said that something was wrong with this dungeon. It felt like this was only proving him right.
It didn’t matter, Sky told himself. The sooner he took care of this boss, the sooner they could leave this place. He could do this.
When Sky pushed on the doors, he half-expected them to stay in place. It felt like there should have been more to it, but the doors yielded with a dull screech. It was harder to push aside the feeling of wrongness as Sky entered the room.
It took Sky less than ten minutes to regret his decision.
The boss was a large rat encased in stone. Fi blazed white in his hands as Sky hacked at the stone, eventually breaking away the rat’s armor. The rat hissed at him, fangs glistening like a snake’s and black blood trickling where the shards of stone had cut it. A sickly green dripped from its fangs.
The same sickly green shone on Sky’s arm where a fang had scraped him. He staggered backward and the giant rat wavered in front of him.
He had made a mistake. He was prepared for a regular boss. He had never fought a black-blooded boss before. He should have been prepared!
Sky scowled at the monster and raised the Master Sword. She felt like she had gained a hundred pounds in mere seconds. His arms ached with the effort of holding her up. What was in that venom? How badly would a mere scrape hurt him?
The monster should have pounced him. It should have taken advantage of his weakness. Sky didn’t understand why it just watched him, why it wasn’t attacking him. What was it doing?
Its red eyes glowed like rubies. They doubled and tripled as they stared at him, but they didn’t move closer. Was the rat waiting for something?
This was a trap and Sky had fallen for it, but what was the trap?
Sky forced himself to take a shaky step forward. He needed to end this now. The stone armor was gone. The sword should easily be able to cut through the boss.
He needed to…
The rat watched him, still as stone. Sky took another step and almost stumbled.
He needed to finish this. Sky needed… Sky needed…
The red eyes never blinked. Sky’s arm felt stiff and ice cold.
His brothers were relying on him, and as Sky’s knees buckled, he realized dully that he had failed them.

my tears of the kingdom experience so far
#catfishchat#totk#things really opened up for me when I realized that any time I was frustrated I could go somewhere else#edit: I do really wish I'd kept the essence of If It Sucks Hit Da Bricks#esp since my point wasn't about warping but the fact that you can leave almost any situation#you can warp you can jump you ascend you can hit da bricks#but I said warp and the pic is of him jumping so Hit Da Bricks didn't make sense#catfish post#loz

worst way to start my new year, thanks. i have a lot of things to say about these companies but i'm tired and just keeping it focused to the pin side of things for this one. do not ever buy pins from these companies, literally ALL of them are stolen from small artists like me. if you want to buy enamel pins, check out etsy, and artist's personal websites and shops! (though even Etsy has some bootleg pins that ship straight from china, so tread carefully…)
Every pin I've designed is, thus far, EXCLUSIVE to my etsy. if you find it anywhere else, it's been ripped off! and once these stupid bootlegs pop up, it's basically a never ending game of whack-a-mole trying to get them all taken down...
#psa#art theft#pin theft#aliexpress#shein#wish#temu#deltarune#the bootleg pin is just over an inch tall. do you know how BAD this design looks at that size?? i'd know. i tested it.#they didn't even use the black nickel of the pin for the black parts of the design. and the listing says copper for some reason. what.#some people never even get their designs taken down. its really sad#so i might just have to deal with bootleg queens out there forever :( i hope nobody confuses the ripoffs for the real thing....#my pin is so much nicer! its almost two inches big and it has two posts on the back so it doesn't spin#because spinning pins are the bane of my existence#im out here working my ass off out of my bedroom in my parents place trying to make a living and here come these pricks#i watermarked all my listing photos exactly so they Couldn't steal my fucking pictures so at least there's that#my new years is just full of bad luck so far i hope this isn't a bad omen#if my registration isn't accepted by the aliexpress copyright department I'm SOL and this will just. stay up i guess#i'm sad#bootleggers kys

A friend of mine sent me your latest post and I couldn't stop thinking about how perfectly Vasco would fit into the role of a coat of arms supporter. It got to the point that I just sat down and made a mock-up of the idea; turns out actually, both of them do a great job at it, together. Literally made this account to share the discovery (Extra funny points for them fitting the original colour scheme)
.
#I was having a late night snack and almost inhaled my pizza when I received this#glorious#Vasco is excited to be there he's taking his new coat of arms supporter role very seriously#hey stop fiddling with the mantle Machete leave it be#I had to look this up but this is apparently the royal coat of arms of united kingdom#and in the original the characters are a lion and an unicorn#which fits these two oddly well#I love the fig leaf censorship very classy very tasteful#thank you for going through the trouble of making an account just to send me this it's priceless#gift art#peaceofbreadcake#Vasco#Machete#own characters#teamwork ✨#the weird thing is how it almost works#if you didn't look closely enough you might not notice that the heraldic beasts are naked dog men

House M.D. but it's when Wilson says House's name
#house md#james wilson#prince's talk tag#finally!!! it's done! this and the house version took almost two weeks to do#first off thank you to the clinic-duty team on livejournal for making the transcripts for these episodes#because this video would be near impossible to make without their clear transcripts. I hope y'all are doing well#ive been reading a lot of fics with these two and i see how the authors have the characters refer to each other in their fics#and that got me wondering how much do they say each other's name in the show and how do they refer to each other#since this is the wilson video ill put his stats here#s1 was 11 times s2 was 18 s3 was 45 s4 was 32 s5 was 41 s6 was 60 s7 was 47 and s8 was 48#in total he says his name 302 times. Mostly refers to him just by House#the only time I've heard him say his first name its when he's being professional or when he's really angry (and that one time he proposed)#and even then it's always the full name not just the first name#the only instance I've seen him use just his first name was on that note he put on House's xmas gift that we see in season 5#and as much as I wanted to put that moment in here he never actually says the contents of the note out loud so i had to leave it out#but what surprised me was he says House's name more than House says his name#especially when the earlier seasons didn't have him say his name as much
