F1 Hit Couple
Tumblr media
Daniel Ricciardo x Reader
You are now sitting in front of the cameras for the Netflix series Drive to Survive. You’re already a pro, being here since the first season, this is easy for you. But, this is gonna be the first time that you and Daniel get both interviewed as a couple.
You’re scrolling trough instagram on your phone when the door opens and Daniel steps in.
“Sorry for being late, mate” Danny says to the producer. You swear you fall in love with his Australian accent everyday. The team mics him up and then he sits beside you and gives you a passionate kiss. You haven’t seen each other in a week since he had to go to Australia because of his mother.
“It’s okay, Daniel. Well, we can get started then.” The producer says, smiling and the cameras start rolling.
“So, how did you guys meet?” The producer asks.
“Well, I had just entered the F1 joining Renault for the 2017 season. I had just came from F2 where I was champion and Renault took a chance with me and I happily accepted. I knew the team was expecting the best of me and I made sure to not let them down. Daniel was the second one to meet me, the first was Nico, obviously” You say, laughing. The crew laughed alongside you. “And he came down to our garage to meet the new driver. I guess everyone was expecting a guy, since Renault kept our contract a secret until the last minute, very few people knew that it was me joining the team. Once Daniel looked at me, and I still remember this very well, his face was of pure shock.”
“It wasn’t shock, really. I knew it was going to be a woman driver, and I was really excited to meet you because we never had a female driver before, and I wanted to make sure that you were welcomed with open arms. And the moment I laid eyes on you, I was star struck.” Danny confesses.
“What was your first thought when you saw Y/N?” The producer asks.
“That she was really beautiful and the second I got to know her the more, I knew that she had an even more beautiful personality. On top of that, she’s the funniest person I’ve ever met.” Danny says. You start blushing.
“That’s why you’re both called the funniest duo on the grid.” The producer says.
“Really? I didn’t know that!” You say, laughing.
“Really? I thought that was pretty obvious.” Danny says.
“How does competing alongside your partner in Formula 1 affect your personal relationship? Is it a positive or negative influence?” The producer asks.
“I think it’s very positive. Having someone that understands you and motivates you. We both know the sacrifices that we have to make to be in this sport and it helps a lot that we’re both in it because we get to spend a lot of time together.” You say.
“Yeah, I agree. I see the guys on the grid saying they’re missing their girlfriends and talking to them on the phone and I’m just ‘don’t mind me, I’m just gonna walk next door and kiss mine’ you know?” Danny says, laughing.
“What about summer break, do you also spend it together?” The producer asks.
“In the first two weeks Daniel flies to Australia to meet his family and I fly to see mine. Then, we spend the rest of the following days together.” You say.
“Do you ever give each other strategic advice during races?” The producer asks.
“Yeah, if I’m being honest, I wouldn’t be where I am today if I didn’t take the best out of Daniel’s advices. He has the experience and wisdom that I don’t have yet. He’s been trough a lot in his career and he’s my go to guy when it comes to advices.” You sincerely say.
From the corner of your eye you see Daniel smiling.
“Does Daniel go to you to get advices?” The producer asks.
“Sometimes, yeah.” You say.
“She sees the track with other eyes, you know? She has a completely bold strategy and I sometimes I really need to be bold.” Danny says.
“Daniel, what do you think are Y/N best individual strengths and weaknesses?”
“She’s fearless when it comes to driving that car. She doesn’t care about the risks when her eyes are only set on one goal, set on winning. She takes decisions that most of us wouldn’t have the balls to do so. And sometimes that can make her reckless and make poor decisions too and I think she has already realized this.” Danny says.
“Yeah, that’s true. I remember that in my first year of Formula 1 I would make poor decisions and as in result I had to retire the car because of that. Then, after those races, I would go to Daniel and ask what did I do wrong and he was brutally honest. I needed that.” You say.
“And what about Daniel? What is his best individual strengths and weaknesses?”
“He’s wise. He knows the tracks like the palm of his hands and knows the best strategies to basically fly through them. His weakness is that he thinks too much. Sometimes he has to take some risks in order to win.” You say.
“When one of you gets the podium and the other doesn’t, how do you guys react to that?”
“Well, it’s a mix of feelings. Of course you’re happy for your partner when they get the podium but, it’s undeniable that you’re also disappointed with yourself for not being there too. You need to separate the worlds. When Y/N is on the podium, you need to be the supportive partner and celebrate her, because there will be plenty of time to think about a strategy to beat her next.” He says and laughs.
“We agreed to separate the track from our personal lives since we started dating. And we’ve done that beautifully.” You say.
“Has ever been arguments about that?” The producer asks.
“Never!” You say.
“Let’s talk about a more sensitive matter.” The producer says.
“Love those.” Danny ironically says.
“Spa 2020.” The producer says.
“Ugh, I knew this was coming.” You laugh nervously.
“What happened?” The producer asks.
“I was on P4 when suddenly Grosjean’s car looses control and crashes into mine and we both hit the barricade at 200 miles per hour. I passed out for a few moments and when I woke up, I could only see fire around me. That’s when my fight or flight mode turned on and I try to get out of that car the fastest I can. When I go reach my seatbelt I find out that it’s stuck and it takes me a whole minute to get it out. Once I’m able to finally get out of the car, I only remember walking like a meter or so and then everything goes black.” You say, remembering the almost tragic day. “I only remember waking up in the hospital after that with a burned hand and getting some oxygen out into me because I breathed in too much smoke while I was trying to get out, that’s why I passed out.”
You feel Daniel’s hand on your lap, as a gesture of reassurance.
“That was a fun day.” You say, laughing to revive the mood of the room.
“It really wasn’t.” Daniel says, letting out a nervous laugh.
“How was it like for you?” The producer asks Danny.
“As soon as my engineer told me that was a red flag, I had this really bad feeling. I remember asking what happened and to who it happened and there was radio silence, I knew it was Y/N. And as soon as we all stopped in the paddock I remember getting out of the car and looking for Y/N. That was when they gave me the news that she had crashed and it was bad. My instinct was to immediately run to where she was and no one could stop me. When I got there, the paramedics told me that she was going to be okay and I got so relieved.” He lets out a nervous laugh and continues “I was not going to continue the race, all I wanted was to be with her but she was the one telling me to continue and remember me that in that track we’re drivers and that I needed to win that race. And that’s what I did.”
“You finally got P1 in that season.” The producer says.
“Yeah, but I didn’t really enjoy it. All I wanted was to get down that podium and run to the hospital, to be with her.” He says.
“There’s a lot of highs about dating when you’re in Formula 1 but the lows can be really low. Your instinct is to be with your significant other when they crash or have to retire the car but you know you need to race, it’s your job and you can’t get away with it. All you can do is win to have something to celebrate about. Deep down you know they are in the right hands.” You say.
“When covid hit, where were you guys?” The producer asks.
“We were living our lives, you know? We took that time off the track to really align ourselves with each other, to connect even more.” Danny says and you smile.
“And made the decision to get our own place. So, Covid for us was all about house hunting.” You say, laughing.
“What are your goals for the future in Formula 1?” The producer asks.
“Well, the championship is always my goal, it will always be. And I’m going to make sure that I win it next year.” Daniel says.
“And for you, Y/N?” The producer asks.
“Well, this past year was amazing for me. I got my championship and I��m really happy about that. But, next year I won’t be racing in the F1.” You say and look at Daniel who nods.
“And why is that?” The producer asks.
“I’m have to take a break for some time because I’m pregnant.” You say, smiling from ear to ear.
Everyone on the crew congratulates you and Danny.
You stand up and lift of your shirt just enough to show your little bump on camera. Danny gently presses his hand on your belly.
“Daniel Ricciardo Jr. is cooking in there.” He says, laughing.
“Well, if it’s a boy we’re definitely not calling him that.” You say as you sit down.
“Do you want a boy or a girl, Daniel?” The producer asks.
“I just want him or her to come healthy so it doesn’t really matter, mate.” He says.
“Well, next week we’ll know for sure.” You say and smile.
You feel realized. You have an amazing career, and amazing boyfriend and now you’re gonna have your little family. It’s heaven on earth.

DRONGO | spencer reid
summary; three times Spencer was confused by australian slang.
warnings; some very bogan language, australian slang, friends to lovers, short, fem reader, australian reader
an; this was self indulgent. ive never used the word drongo in my life but my brother does and it makes me GIGGGLEEEE so i think thats cute. pls enjoy, not edited at all.
Tumblr media
The first time was when you first started at the BAU. You and Spencer had been sent to check out the crime scene of a murder. You were still adjusting and finding your place in the team, while also adjusting to America in itself.
It’s not like Australia was free of crime — It definitely wasn’t, not in the slightest, but it still shocked you how many murders were committed by guns. Since in Australia there were much stricter gun laws, it wasn’t something you saw often.
The cold air brushed over your skin, making goosebumps lie in their wake. Your hands ran over your arms trying to sooth the cold skin of your biceps and forearms as you walked around the house, which was actually a crime scene at the moment.
That was always slightly unsettling to you, the fact that the crime scene was once someone’s house, someone’s home, the place they went to everyday after work, the place they craved after a bad day and now it would never be the same.
“I think we’re all done here” Spencer said, making you jump as you spun on your heels in the bedroom you had been looking through. He stood there hands crossed over his chest.
You sighed out, nodding. “It’s bloody freezing this arvo.” You muttered as you walked past him out of the room, down the hallway. You missed the way his eyebrows furrowed in confusion and his lips parted slightly.
“What?” He huffed out under his breath as he walked to follow you down the hallway.
You turned your head to look at him, a soft smile on your face as you assumed he just didn’t hear you. “Its freezing” You repeated, head tilting to the side.
He eventually reached your side, where the two of you continued walking out of the house side by side. Out of everyone on the team, Spencer was who you found yourself most comfortable with so far, you enjoyed listening to his long list of random facts and you admired how smart he was.
While he admired your accent, your stories about growing up on the other side of the world and the way you spoke, even if he didn’t always understand it. “No I heard that.. After that, What did you say?”
The two of you walked out of the house, discarding of the gloves you had to wear while looking around. Your lip quirked up, “This arvo?” You questioned.
He nodded, “What is that? What does that mean?”
You let out a laugh, furrowing your eyebrows as you peeled the gloves away from your hands, throwing them into the bin. There were still other cops and new’s reporters around the house making the outside slightly chaotic.
“Afternoon, I meant this afternoon.” You established softly, amused by how curious he seemed by the words you said, how they were so confusing to him, almost like another langue while to you it was just the normal.
“Arvo means afternoon?” He asked. You snorted at the way ‘arvo’ sounded falling from his lips, the mix of his accent and the confusion in his tone making it sound so abnormal, unfitting. It made you laugh.
You nodded as the two of you made your way through the crowd of people. He seemed lost in thought until reached the car. He paused in front of it, looking at you with his eyebrows still pinched together in slight confusion.
“Why?” He asked finally.
You laughed, shrugging. It wasn’t like there was any reason, not really. You grew up hearing it, it was just something you said. You never really paid it any mind until now when Spencer was quizzing you about it.
You opened the passenger seat door, getting in as Spencer made his way around the other side getting into the drivers seat, but he made no movement to start the car until he understood why the heck you would use a word like that.
You scrunched up your nose, “I don’t know— Its just what I say.. Not everyone says it.. Its more of a bogan thing to be honest.. A lot of the ‘Australian slang’ Is bogan language” You mumbled out.
He furrowed his eyebrows, only seeming to be more confused by what you were saying. It made another laugh pass through your lips at the fact you had made the genius with a 187 iq confused by australian language.
“I’ll explain it later” You huffed out with a soft smile, knowing you had a job to do and if you spent the next half an hour trying to explain bogan to Spencer you would probably get nothing else done.
That seemed to be a good enough for Spencer as he started the car to drive back to the office.
Over the next few years of working with Spencer there were many things you said that caused him to ponder it for a moment, sometimes he was able to figure out what you meant without having to ask, but not always.
This was one of those times.
You were annoyed, coming out of an interview with a suspect who was playing dumb, obviously playing dumb and it was driving you absolutely insane. You were just getting more and more annoyed as the interview went on until eventually you threw your hands up and walked out.
Hotch and Spencer were on the other-side of the one sided window, meaning they could see everything going on in the interview room along with hear everything before of the Speaker, while inside the room, you couldn’t see anything from the other side.
Spencer immediately noticed your frustration rising, so did Hotch. Over the last few years Spencer had grown especially fond of you, he noticed and learnt your body language and what upset you and what made you happy. So it wasn’t a shocker that the minute you were out of the room he was by your side.
“Are you okay?” He asked, looking over the obvious distress on your face, the way your cheeks had gone flushed and your lips had been pulled into a tight line, eyebrows pushed down in frustration.
“No. He is acting like a fucking drongo, mate!” You babbled out as you leant against the wall, hands coming up to grip onto the hair from your scalp, anything to try and calm yourself down.
Hotch furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at you, not at all understanding what you had just said, Neither did Spencer but he had noticed over the years how when you were frustrated you got a little more back to your old ways in the way you spoke.
You adjusted slightly, understanding people in American didn’t use fun words like Australian’s did, so you settled it down when you could — but times like this when you were a little more frustrated it just kind of slipped out.
“Whats a drongo?” Spencer asked, huffing out in confusion.
Your eyes reached his as your expression softened at the way his features were scrunched up in complete and utter confusion of what you just said. It caused a tense but gentle laugh to pass through your lips.
“Like- An idiot, just like a dickhead.” You muttered out, a smile now replacing the frown on your lips, amused by his curiosity. “He is acting like a fucking dickhead” You rephrased.
Spencer nodded now understanding what you meant but still not entirely sure why Australian’s used such funky words, what the heck was a ‘drongo?’ But he refrained from saying that. He also didn’t mention you calling him mate.
That was the one thing that never changed, you called everyone mate as if it was just normal. You greeted Derek when you saw him by saying ‘Hey mate’ Or it would randomly slip out at the end of your sentences, it was a word he came to adore.
“Right, Okay.” Spencer nodded.
The next time was when you and Spencer had been sent by rossi to pick up more ingredients for the pasta he was making since the elder man underestimated how much he would need, it was also an unspoken thing to make you and Spencer go together.
The team collective decided that you two were made for each other, and would do anything they could in order to push you guys a little bit closer together — as if you guys really needed any help with that in the first place.
You started out with a basket Spencer was holding as the two of you walked down the aisles of the store, picking up the ingredients on the list Rossi had given the two of you. Only the basket was filling up fast and you still had a number of things you needed to grab.
“We might be better off grabbing a trolly” You hummed absentmindedly, as your hands reached for a packet of self raising flour, looking over it to make sure it was the right one.
Spencer immediately snorted out loudly, a fit of laughter leaving his lips as he tried to calm himself down in order to not make a scene in the middle of the shop. Your head turned to him, eyebrows pinched in confusion of what was so funny.
“What?” You asked, confusion lacing your tone as your eyes sparkled with amusement watching the boy laugh, his hands reaching down to place the basket on the floor as he then reached up to cover his face with his hands in order to settle his laughter down.
He shook his head, “What- What did you just say?” He asked, peeling his hands away from his face to look at you. You huffed out, knowing this routine all too well at this point, your eyes rolled as you crossed your arms over your chest.
“Trolly.” You mumbled out, shaking your head but there was a smile on your lips anyways. He immediately started laughing again, you groaned but the smile never left. “Stop it Spence” You reached out to shove his shoulder playfully.
He calmed himself down, nodding his head, almost laughing himself to the point of tears. “I’m sorry- Im sorry..- Yeah we can go grab a trolly” He teased slightly, you immediately cringed at the way the word sounded leaving his lips with his accent, shaking your head immediately.
“You can’t say it. You say it wrong. You over pronounce it.” You mumbled out, cheeks tinting red at his teasing. Spencer just raised his eyebrow, clearly amused, entertained by how bothered and flustered you had become.
He chuckled again, dragging his hands down his face with a wide smile on his lips, “Maybe you just under pronounce it” He resorted back, raising his eyebrow slightly.
It was your turn to snort as you shook your head, placing the flour in the basket. “I can’t say it wrong, its my country’s word.” You shot back just as fast. He just laughed, he laughed and laughed.
Your eyes rolled again as you turned your back to him, biting your lip to hide the smile that threatened through at the sweet sound of his laughter. “Fine, lets get a Cart.” You mumbled out, putting on your best American accent which was actually terrible.
He gasped and shook his head quickly, reaching out to grab your arm to turn you back to face him, pulling you in a little bit closer. “Oh no— Thats so much worse.”
You laughed before you realised how genuinely close you were, you could feel his breath on your face, your eyes met his and the laughter seemed to die out as he seemed to realise the close proximity at the same time.
That was the first time Spencer had kissed you.

Cherrisnake hcs!
Pentious is so bad at kissing. Actually so so bad.
Cherri is actually a pretty good inventor. She makes all her own bombs. They make inventions together now
Cherris pet names for Pen: "babe" "hun" "snakey" "babycakes"
Pens pet names for Cherri: "sweetheart" "sugar" "darling" "honey"
Sense they lived 100 years apart on earth, they love teaching each other about the traditions of their respective eras and homes
They, being the only european accented people in the hotel, make british/australian jokes that no one else understands
Cherri has no interest in being redeemed into heaven, and Pentious completely respects that. They make their long distance relationship work
Pen becomes the official Heaven ambassador to Hell, while Cherri is the Hell ambassador to Heaven. This way they both have a job to serve their respective realms, and they both get to see each other a lot.
Pen is a virgin before cherri. That's it that's the hc.
Pen gets drunk SO EASY compared to Cherri. 4 shots can get this man completely and utterly wasted beyond any sensible thinking.
Cherri is a MASSIVE bed hog. Will actually steal all the blankets and pillows from Pentious
They can't be together nearly as much as they would like, so they have little stuffed animals of each other to snuggle with when they miss one another (pen carries around his cherri stuffy EVERYWHERE)
Cherri is so fucking bad at drawing. Pen is pretty good so he tried to teach her but it DID NOT go well
Pen grew up in the 1800s and therefore has a lot of bad opinions about himself. He also didn't get a ton of schooling and doesn't know how to write very well, so Cherri teaches him.
Cherri loves his angel wings. They are soft and very pretty
Pentious loves Cherris hair. He loves to braid it.
There is a closet in the lobby of thr Hotel that is actually a portal to Heaven that Cherri and Pentious can come and go through as they please. Lots of other heaven and hell members have used to to reunite with their family's.
Cherri and Pentious have turned the page for the conflict between Heaven and Hell. With the help of the Morningstar family and the Seraphm, Heaven and Hell now successfully work along side each other.
A make out session once got really heated and Pentious accidentally bit cherri, forgetting that he has deadly venom. Cherri just regenerated after a few moments but forever uses the bite as blackmail against Pentious
Hugs. Pentious loves hugs. Cherri is a very good hugger. It works out very well
Pentious is a very clingy drunk, he refuses to let Cherri leave his sight
I take hc requests!!!

Hi welcome to miwiheroes <3
*australian accent* 'Ello this is Eli, president of miwiheroes club and I realised I never made an intro post, also this is a little masterpost where you can find all the analysis/ byler rambling posts without having to scrolls through my account :D
I'm 18 years old
Not very active at the moment because I have just started university
he/him
I may look like an aggressively straight man but no one knows i'm actually hyperfixated on shipping two queer guys from a sci-fi netflix show
I'm a capricorn, infp, bisexual and trans ftm
i'm in quite a few fandoms but rn im hyperfixated on byler so... i'm also into the grishaverse fandom, good omens, dan and phil, + marauders
i'm from england
my spotify is 'figflower' and: Here are my byler playlists!!
i never used to write analysis on film but thx byler tumblr because i've been missing out
if you were wondering, my favourite characters from stranger things are (in this order): will, mike, hopper and el <3 okay see ya
MY ANALYSES:
(i will update these as i make them. my more massive analyses are highlighted in blue)
Confirmation that Mike jumping into the quarry was about Will
Milkvan's conflict, Byler, and the concept of understanding
Byler and the insane amount of Closet Imagery
Season 1 Mike is extremely queer-coded
The most important 'Will Voice' scene
Mike's bedroom is insane
FULL airport scene analysis Season 4
What if Mike's gay from the beginning of S5 like Will in S4?
You're not delusional: What I noticed when I wasn't a byler
Thinking about the monologue…
Mike is clearly thinking about Will in the Snow Ball scene
Light is symbolic for truth = byler endgame
MY FICS:
My AO3 Account: miwiheroes
vibrant days (caution to the breeze) - 3 chapters
Mike and Will's relationship has been secret for 2 months. Neither of them want to bring it up, but things build and build until it becomes more of a burden than just a little mutual understanding. Will's growing up (and getting drunk) and it's impossible for Mike to stay in the same place forever, with words always on the tip of his tongue.
aka mike and will are hiding their relationship and avoid talking about hard subjects
is my timing that flawed? - 2 chapters
In the aftermath of a harrowing escape from the Upside Down, Mike and Will grapple with physical and emotional wounds. Faced with Will's new plan and doubt of what's real and what's not, Mike must confront reality and something that he had never been able to truly control.
aka wound cleaning fic + a devastating cliffhanger + Will not knowing what's real and what's not
it's rotten work (not to me. not if it's you) - 2 chapters
Ten years after everything, and Will hasn't been able to shake a debilitating fear of anything medical-related. So when the only option and smart thing to do is get a blood test from the hospital, Mike is sure to take the time to be there for him.
aka will needs a blood test but has a phobia of needles and mike takes time off work to support him
My WIP: what you really want (Season 5 speculation/ absolute cringefail pining)
Have fun! And if you don't ship byler ur allowed to interact but if you want to hate on it, please don't interact! I'll just delete any hate because I personally think there is no space for homophobia or negativity on my page.
You'll also find 0 byler doubt here. I don't want to worry people. So ily <3

the Lost show kinda half heartedly making a dingo took my baby joke because they have an Australian with a missing baby...I'm curious........do Americans understand how fucked the lindy chamberlain case was and how deeply shitty it is that people think it's a joke?? Like do people just think it's funny that an Australian woman was wrongfully convicted of murdering her baby and served jail time because no one believed what she saw despite what she saw being a relatively common occurrence in the area? do people just think it's fodder for jokes cos "haha Australian accent is silly and dingo is a funny word"? I genuinely think the way non-australian media jokes about it is so weird. Also this is a post for another day but non Australians need to STOP making fun of the names of our animals and a lot of our place names because those words are usually traditional Aboriginal words. First Nations words. Dingo is a Dharug word. when you make fun of it, that's racism. anyway, Lost is a show that's weird about Australia because the world is weird about it and by weird I mean condescending.

The stages so far of me binging the entirety of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries (spoilers if you haven’t watched it before):
1. “Yeah, the 1920s hasn’t ever really been your preferred vibe, but so many of your friends like this show, and you love ‘Clue’ which seems similar, so just bite the bullet and go.”
2. “Wait, they’re Australian? What? Did I know this before and forgot?”
3. “Ohhhh right, Miranda Otto was in this! I did know that. And she’s a cocaine lord?! Nice. Don’t get to see her in many villain roles.”
Tumblr media
4. *first scene with Phryne & Jack* “Oh, he has a very nice deep voice, okay I see I see mmmhm okay. … Why is so he so sulky, though? Big ‘who hurt you’ vibes. Intriiiiigue… “
5. “OH dEaR oh mY, there is banter and cheeky looks, this is bad, coDE RED, pretty sure this is your LAST chance to exit before this becomes a #problem.”
Tumblr media
6. *does not exit* *becomes a #problem*
7. “Oh, so she’s gonna be banging lots of men with no emotional attachment (when there is clearly some tragic past hiding under the surface as to why that might be)? So an emotionally damaged woman who copes with her traumas by deflecting said emotions through sex and other various reckless behaviors? Babe… *cups face gently* babe, babe, babe. You’ve made this beyond a problem now. Because every little glimpse of vulnerability among your extremely out-of-hand savior complex is gonna make me fall in love with you more and more… just like the tall, broody inspector man over there (who still has a very nice voice and sad, kind eyes and who you seem to be afraid of being smitten with for ~*some reason*~). Anyway, Jack and I, we’re both fucked.”
8. Wdym they both have traumas from the war & from past relationships, that they both witnessed an unimaginable amount of loss, and that both are broken so deeply that they built fortresses of ice around their hearts to protect themselves AND YET BOTH OF THEM THAW JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE WITH THEIR EVERY INTERACTION? Fuck OFF! This is not FAIR!
9. “Miss Fisher was actually on her way home.” He said that with a fully clenched jaw and a step forward. Fuuuuccckk, there’s gonna be smoldering jealousy, too? Just slap me in the face, the amount of longing I’m about to witness… Jack, it’s okay buddy, we’re in this together. There’s something special about you and she’s gonna figure it out… after what appears to be several seasons and perhaps a feature film. But she’ll figure it out! Stay strong, soldier! I’m rooting for you!
10. “Oh God, her little sister was murdered. As someone who loves my own sister dearly, that’s fucking awful, this is hurting me deeply, and I really do not like it. 🥺 … AND THE MURDERER IS DUE TO BE RELEASED? AbSoLUTELY not! … WDYM THERE’S ALSO AN ABUSIVE EX?! And he’s come back to MURDER HER over a naked painting of her younger self like a fucking CREEP?!*”
Tumblr media
(*not a correct summarization of what happened, but not not correct)
Anyway, I found the tragic past!
11. “Abusive ex is played by Peter O’Brien? With a ‘French’ accent? *snort* I mean, okay, it’s a choice. Anyway… what a douche… moving on… “
12. Aw, they kissed! *claps* And so soon! I mean, it was under horrible circumstances, but it happened… and with lingering looks to boot? You know what, I’ll take it. ‘Cause, I mean, look at them… and like let’s not talk about the juxtaposition of Phryne’s panic over seeing someone who once hurt her being redirected by a kiss from someone who would never hurt her… and Jack subsequently lunging for an armed René to stop him from taking Phryne… we’ll just ignore that for now
Tumblr media
13. Felt the “I am not afraid of you” in my bones. Good shit.
14. “You kissed me. … You kissed me back!” Children, please. This is a Wendy’s.
Tumblr media
This is as far as I’ve gotten, but omg what a fun ride so far. Friends who tried to recommend this to me for YEARS, I am SO sorry I slept on it. I understand now and your taste is impeccable. *muah*

I spent all day yesterday with my mom talking abt a lot of stuff but amongst all those things she let me intensely infodump about tf2 for hours and I got to show her a lot of things, here are the highlights of me showing tf2 to a white uruguayan 53 year old woman who’s only game experience is bejeweled
I first gave her a very surface level rundown of the game plot which she found nonsensical the more questions she asked, I showed her the meet the merc vids first and at the end of each I gave her extra info about them
She thinks heavy is interesting and she’d probably like him more if he was put in a normal situation where he’s just a civilian living life, she never made a fat joke abt him so lets fucking gooooooo 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Her feelings on scout are mixed and didn’t like when I said he was one of my favorites, she said I need to like smarter people (this will be her downfall later) she did like him a lot more after we watched Expiration Date and found him and Miss Pauling endearing (she was great at picking up the subtext which surprised me) also asked her what age she thought scout had and she said 19 or 20 😭 then made a joke abt his baby face when I told her his actual age
Engineer scares her a small bit and does NOT understand how he’s my number 1 favorite (it was so hard to pretend I am normal about him in front of her) thinks him playing the guitar with a glove is stupid. I explained to her a bit of the conagher family story and she said that dell basically got the short end of the stick (because he’s tasked with fighting in the war AND maintaining the australium immortality devices when australium ran out) 😭
Thinks sniper is okay, I asked her what age she thought he had and she said 50 LMAOOOOO when I told her his actual presumed age she went “oh damn then I’m doing GREAT for my age”. I went on a huge tangent about the comic’s timeline and plot just to explain to her how he’s not ACTUALLY australian and she got sad abt him :( I did not tell her abt the jarate until a lot later bc I knew it would irredeemably ruin her image of sniper, I explained to her the game mechanic and as I was going to say “it gives the enemy a negative effect” she cuts me off and goes “yeah it makes them die from embarrassment” she also made a jarate pun in Spanish that I can’t remember at all rn I’m so sorry
Did not understand a single thing demoman said in the entire video and I don’t really blame her, her English is not good or that advanced it’s quite strange because she can understand some random complex words but had to ask me what “screw you” means so yeah she didn’t understand demomans accent she did however notice it was the same voice actor as heavy. I told her about demomans background and story and she found it so incredibly strange but wished for him to recover from alcoholism because it’s not good for him 💜 I told her abt demomans charms but she wasn’t quite charmed herself sadly (she did enjoy him in emesis blue)
Like mother like child, the Meet The Spy video was her favorite out of the bunch and she very quickly clocked in on the fact spy is scouts father without me saying anything, she said that from a technical standpoint spy is the most valuable mercenary on the team (goddamn not even the medic got considered) she also enjoyed him a lot in Expiration Date and Emesis Blue, I think hes still her favorite as of right now. Also we watched lil pootis and she laughed SO hard when I told her blu spy divorced blu ma and got with blu engie. She also frowned when red spy left lil pootis in the hallway alone and made jokes about mistreating his grandson
She did NOT like meet the medic or medic himself, absolutely creeped out by him and when I told her medic is one of my favorites she looked at me and went “your concept of what’s “comedic” and “fun” is very wrong and I hope you never get a boyfriend because I’m afraid of what you’ll bring home”….. I don’t know if she was serious or not 😭 I also never mentioned liking medic that way but I guess she fucking clocked me for it anyways. I tried to give her some medic propaganda and she found him tricking the devil to be very funny, I haven’t asked her if her opinion on medic has changed after watching emesis blue tho (I’m very curious to know since it’s a very different interpretation of him) I haven’t told her a single thing about heavymedic because I am afraid of what she’s gonna do with the knowledge of tf2 ships and I’m probably gonna keep it that way. She did seem charmed by the way medic genuinely loves his doves since she’s an animal lover herself
Soldier scared her a bit but mostly confused her, her initial reaction was rejection because of his ultra patriotism, nonsensical lines and violent tendencies however he grew onto her rather quickly to even make it to like second or third place on her list of favorites mainly because I told her about his raccoon sanctuary and the fact he is a great boyfriend (I didn’t tell her abt the naked honey fighting… I’ll show her later) and a great friend to demoman as well (she finds their cross faction friendship adorable)
Pyro absolutely TERRIFIES her she was utterly horrified by the meet the pyro video and doesn’t know what scares her more, the idea that pyro doesn’t know what they’re doing or that they do and do it anyway. I didn’t get to tell her abt pyro becoming a CEO in the comics but I’ll mention it eventually, the interpretation of them in emesis blue probably did not help her be less scared of pyro lmao. Also she thought the baby mercs in the meet the pyro video were oddly adorable and wants one….whatever that means
Overall she said the age of the game shows itself in the videos with their quality and what not and I also told her they were animated using SFM and briefly explained how it’s a free software fans have used for years to make fan content. Also she thinks the blu spy head in the freezer is the FUNNIEST shit ever
Her thoughts about Expiration Date:
She noted how this was obviously more recent because the quality was better
When she saw scout asleep in the van she went “that’s how I sleep”
She picked on a lot of details that I didn’t think she would and actually hearing her thoughts about the video after was rather fun, she did note how scout had used what he learned from spy later on the fight against the bread monster with miss Pauling for example
Nearly screamed when the bread monster ate the dove and let out a sigh of relief when she saw it was ok
Found scout very endearing when he explained he knew girls like Pauling don’t like him
The bit with the bucket made her laugh out loud I had to pause the video because she was curled into a ball laughing
I had failed to explain that they have teleportation technology in tf2 so when she saw the teleporters she loudly went “what the FUCK is that”
Loved miss Pauling a lot in fact before watching this video she asked me if we were gonna see her at some point since I had already spent a while talking abt her earlier
She didn’t have a lot of comments about other stuff I showed her that are worth mentioning but she loved emesis blue! She’s like me about liking weird confusing movies so that part she loved a lot but could do with a bit less violence, at one point whenever the characters were in danger she’d cover her face and go “they don’t die do they?” Over and over again lmao
I plan on showing her more stuff although it’s slightly difficult bc of the language barrier, if y’all have any videos or stuff you’d like for me to show her plz share but be aware of that

Hi please talk about dragon quest 9
i need u to understand i was on a train yesterday. so i had so much time to draft a dragon quest 9 infodump <- threat
INFODUMP BELOW:
OKAY SO DRAGON QUEST 9
originally i got drawn to it bc it let you play as a girl which was very important to preteen me. also i only had the nintendo ds so i was playing like. basically any game i could beg my parents for shdjsks. the other games that krungled me were like. the professor layton series. harvest moon. you know?
anyway so the premise is. the Almighty made angels to keep an eye on the world below (the protectorate). The angels reside high above the lands below, in a place called the Observatory. you play as a junior angel, assigned along with your teacher Aquila to watch over the small sleepy village of Angel Falls. Your job is to do good deeds and help out the people who live there, in exchange for an ethereal representation of their gratefulness- a weird blueish green glowing blob called benevolessence. the angels use benevolessence to feed the world tree yggdrasil in the hopes that it will one day bear fruit. The fruit of yggdrasil heralds the return of the angels to the side of the Almighty.
The game starts on your first day as guardian of angel falls, having taken over the job from Aquila. you spend the day helping out the villagers, and collecting benevolessence, and after you return to the Observatory to drop off your benevolessence, you find that yggdrasil has borne fruit. As the celestial express (literally a flying golden train) comes to collect the angels to take them to the realm of the almighty, a beam of light blasts up from the world below, sending you (and the celestial express) tumbling down to the world below.
you wake up in angel falls, missing your wings and your ability to see benevolessence, but retaining your ability to see ghosts and magical creatures. eventually you find the fallen celestial express, along with its controller, a fairy named stella.
You then set off on a quest together, both to collect enough benevolessence to get the celestial express running, and then to figure out why you fell.
it's genuinely one of my favourite games. you make your own party, so there's no like. fixed party members. and there's a small character creator to customise your little guys. ALSO the place names are puns. i'm told by a friend who had played more of the dragon quest games that this is a staple of them but. there's a quest where you have to infiltrate a boarding school called swinedimples. instead of hogwarts. there's a town called upover where everyone talks with australian accents. it's built into a mountain. the main villains of the game are the gittish empire. a play on the british empire. who are gits.
anyway it's genuinely a good game despite its age and the whole thing of like. yeah you're an angel. but you fell. and you're still beholden to angel rules and the final boss of the game is also a fallen angel like you and just!!! good fucking game dude. sorry if you didn't want spoilers but. it drives me crazy. anyway highly recommend it if you ever decide to play it!!

Florida!!!
Tumblr media
Warnings: implied cheating,running away,and smut nothing in detail
Tumblr media
Florida is the best place to get away after getting divorced you could say I'd never guessed this would happen, we were happy or so I thought but I was not enough for him I needed more he was selfish, greedy, spiteful, and cruel but I stay till I couldn't look at myself in the mirror or look my mother in the eye. I needed an out it was hard he tried to take everything from me but I wouldn't let him. But since the divorce was finalized he hasn't been seen but nobody questions it. I have never felt freer than I am now the sand on my feet with the warm beach water is a breath of fresh air “Destin, Florida” I say in a quiet tone like it was a weight off my shoulders. All my friends are having kids or sticking with their old ways of smoking weed. As I lay in the sand basking in the warm sun I heard my phone ring with the name of the contact in bold lettering “You ran from Australia for another beach but in Florida” is the first thing I hear when our lines connect “Yes.. I did Felix” I say with a sigh “You’ll find someone new too,” he said with sympathy in his voice “I know, I'm gonna let you go lix we’ll talk again soon I promise,” I say as we said our goodbyes I hang up and power off my phone. 
I see a figure walking over to me he wasn't too tall but he was well-built and had a good amount of muscle on him. I can see him walking over to me “Hi” he said with a smile “Hello?” I said confused “Chris I saw you and thought you were beautiful and wanted to talk to you!” he said cheerfully, it's been a while since someone has told me I was beautiful years you could say “Well thank you, Chris, I'm —” I say looking up at him as he's still standing, “do you want to get dinner with me? You do not have to I would understand since we just me,” he said starting to ramble. “Yeah I see no problem with me having dinner with you, also are you Australian?” I ask hearing a strong-ish accent laced in his voice. “ yes I am in here on a small getaway I’ll give you my number” he said with a smile.
I walked into the restaurant Chris had picked out, I found him and sat down we ordered drinks and our food and kept the small talk going and getting to know each other. It was innocent or it was until I found myself undressed in his bed, his hands rubbing up and down my sides gently kissing my shoulder and chest. It was soft and kind as if he knew me and my body like it was the back of his hand. I could feel chills come over my body “fuck me up, Florida” I think to myself. His touch feels like something ive been longing for what ive been missing all my life. “I'll use it up like a drug”. This is the best ive felt in years its pure euphoria when we kiss and when our hips meet.

This was just a small idea I got and wanted to work on before I lost the motivation but here’s a small one-shot no beta read so kinda shity

TF2 OC Infodump... About this silly guy
Tumblr media
Minion's relationships with the mercs
Engineer - Engie is like one of the only people that can understand him (literally not emotionally) because of his thick ass accent. Minion likes to talk to him. Minion yaps to him a LOT, about almost everything.
Medic - Minion WILL find any way possible to be the one to deliver Medics orders personally. He also likes to include extra organs in almost every shipment. Minion makes his feelings towards Medic very obvious, but Medic continues to play dumb to keep getting those extra organs. Minions bird is the cause of at least 3 archimedes going missing.
Spy - Spy has photo evidence of Minion doing weird shit (staring at medics ass or smth idk). Minion is VERY aware of this and gets very nervous when hes doing anything at all because hes afraid that Spy is taking a picture of him.
Soldier -  Soldier is one of Minion's best friends, but Minion is scared that Soldier will grab him. Because he did, once. Minion got accused of not being faithful to America.
Sniper - Minion thinks he's weird because of the jarate thing. Hes scared that Sniper will throw jarate at him. Theyre probably buddies though, because they are both from places that have like weird animals, and they'd probably talk about that.
Scout - Theyre probably buddies because they both are falling for someone who barely likes them back. They encourage eachother. They're also relatively around the same age.
Demoman - Demoman is one of Minion's best friends along with Soldier. They'd also be drinking buddies, maybe not too often but they would. Minion gets really emotional when hes drunk, so he'd probably overshare to Demoman.
Heavy- I think theyre only acquaintances because they both cant quite understand each other (considering they both dont speak fluent english, and their native languages are different) BUT i think if they ever hung out they would cook for each other / bond over food.
Pyro - He probably hangs out a lot with Pyro because of Louise, he draws with Pyro when hanging out with them and Louise.
Bonus: Miss Pauling - I think he respects her a lot as a person and thinks she's cool. He probably tries to convince her just a little bit that scout is cool.
Louise - They are literally the father daughter duo EVER!! minion loves louise as a daughter so much and he cares so much he would take a bullet for her.
Eddy - Even though they might argue or have their differences sometimes, Eddy is always Minion's best friend. Minion truly appreciates Eddy and is grateful that Eddy is in his life.
Smissmass Presents
Spy - Lint, like he WRAPS IT to make it look like an extravagant cool gift but he actualy needle felted to lint to make it into a middle finger
Soldier - a tabo becuz he heard that soldier like bucket
Medic - he would buy him like 8 presents and make him custom advent calendar but its just pics of him and its the same picture each time for 12 days
Demoman - probably a nice bottle of wine or a case of his favorite alcohol
Scout - shitty art supplies because Scouf draws a lot, minion thinks those are the best art supplies in the world
Heavy - He would try to make a sandwich but with hawaiian rolls
Engineer - a book on how to learn tagalog
Pyro - 200 pack of jumbo crayons
Sniper - something very australian related
Bonus: Miss Pauling - A world globe you color in places for everywhere you've been.
Louise - Literally ANY toy besides a puzzle because he knows shes sick of if
Eddy - joke gifts like a mug or t-shirt that says something retarded, but if a real gift he'd buy something that was on eddys wishlist or something
on the bonus ones.. Louise and Eddy are my friend's OCs
@ilikesimsfour
thanks for reading chat!!

I need to settle this with myself, I can't decide if it's a good movie or not. Debate material under cut.
Eva Gabor slays as Miss Bianca (my queen) both times so that's an automatic yes from me. The story itself was also not bad.
On the other hand the animation threw me off because I've always been so loyal to the original 1977 The Rescuers. Milt Kahl's animation is such a big deal to me, that was the best era of Disney and I will not be hearing other opinions because they are wrong.
The egg scene with Johanna and Mcleach in the kitchen? Made me smile during my surgery recovery. Animated movies rarely make me smile. That scene was peak cinematic gold.
Tumblr media
The absolute deciding factor is if Jake is sexy or not. Now for the record I am 100% team Bernard. Thicc mouse man with a dumpy and a big heart? Yes maam. (He also has a slight stutter. As a stutterer myself, child me instantly fell in love when my father had me watch the original for the first time.) But there's just something about Jake's charm. That Indiana Jones ass kangaroo rat could punt me into the sun and I can’t tell if I would thank him or dropkick that Crocodile Dundee motherfucker.
Miss Bianca, however, has been and always will be my favourite. Everyone has a crush on her everywhere she goes and she looks so put together but I promise you she is so fucking autistic and probably does Jello shots with whoever wishes to humour her. Just watch the original, and then this is emphasized in Down Under. Fucking icon. God is a white mouse from Hungary with a purple hat.
That being said, let's turn back to the animation. What are these CGI scenes doing in here? Now mind you, overall I *am* impressed with the CGI. This movie came out in 1990 and they combined 2D animation with so many near flawless CGI shots. But why though? The combination was awesome, it slayed, it served. But there was just something about it that seemed so corny to me and I can’t place my finger on it.
And what are these size proportions? Cody is six years old acording to the Disney Wiki. If you are familiar with six year olds, then you know those things aren't exactly tiny. Why is he able to ride on that eagle? Golden eagles are real birds however they are smaller than bald eagles. Bald eagles are large birds but they are not that large. In fact the largest eagle as of right now is the giant Philippine eagle, which is only a meter tall. A six year old can’t ride that. Not only did Marahute fly hundreds of metres in the air supporting an entire six year old and then some, but she was also large enough for this kid to pitch a medium sized tent on. What the hell. Fake ass bird.
Another problem I have is that it takes place in Australia. So why in the absolute FUCK does Cody sound like he's from Nebraska USA? Riddle me fucking that. Mcleach is understandable because he's a poacher, probably dropped in from the US. In fact he sounds like he's from Tennessee so you know his ass did. But come on. Cody? He's a six year old born and raised in Australia. The only characters with Australian accents were two kangaroos, a koala, and Cody's mother. His mother is a stretch though, Edinburgh sounding ass bitch.
Also what six year old owns a large pocket knife? Cody if you don't put that shit down and go work on your colouring book. I swear to god.
What redeems it for me is Bianca and Bernard. Jake really thought he could pull Bianca from the perfect man. Bernard respects Bianca with everything he has, he continually gave her everything he could. Bernard loved her, and Bianca loved him back. Jake tried to shit on her man and Bianca said 'I think the fuck not.'
And yes. I know Bernard is some Hobbit ass motherfucker. He didn’t wanna go on the trip to save Penny in the original, he hates flying, he hates adventure, but Bianca taught him to love that and it was beautiful. He tried it for her and found out that he did love it after all. Bianca brought out his courage, and Bernard brought out her heart. They're the best Disney duo. Fuck you.
I got distracted. The question I want to answer is, is The Rescuers Down Under a great movie or is it a horrible movie? It's not just good or bad. You either love it or you hate it, and I can't decide.
Miss Bianca supremacy for life.

So.... What did you do think on the first Sins from Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss so far?
And were you still waiting on the other three Sins?
People asking me for opinions about my fav shits?? 🥺🥺🥺 💙🩵💙🩵💙 Sorry, I always get excited cause I don't usually have Asks >7<Uu
I really love them!! Sins are my fav characters from Hellaverse together with my Hazbin husbands :"3c Honestly, my only favs from Helluva Boss (Bee in special)... I am not interested in anyone else from that series sadly 😔 but good gay drama.
In fact! I am doing the Official Standees Collection about the Sins!!! I wish there was one of Lucifer ;w; but I will get the other 6 Sins eventually. Satan is the next 😎
Tumblr media
I guess my top Sins right now:
Lucifer
Beelzebub
Mammon
Asmodeus
So far!
Nothing against Asmodeus, really! He is a truly cool guy, I love his sexappel, his personality and healthy relationship with Fizz 💙 But "villain" code characters are my shit so Mammon is above :"D
Damn let me ramble about every Deadly Sin kinda 👉🏻👈🏻
❤️ Lucifer, even being the leader and King of Hell, I actually love him because of his personality. So goofy, expressive, extravagant, also a caring and lovely father despite his depression and absence with his daughter. He is so... special and childish! I love childish people! 🐤 (Don't confuse with unmatured). People say he is autistic (?) Dunno, not for me, but I can see he is very hyperactive person :") He is a really amazing person, father and surely husband. My faith in Lucifer is blind and strong, guys 😔🙏🏻 I wish him the best. Ofc I love his designs as well, so handsome and sexy short king~ He is my only Hazbin husband who is not a villain, hello?
💛 Beelzebub is my queen 👑 🐝 as I said, my top fav character from Helluva. She is very outgoing, pure happiness and passion for her illusions and stuff like Lucifer. And pretty please, I couldn't understand people complaining about her design, I fell IN LOVE with her design!! Outstanding Bee-Fox demon! I like the mixing of canine with insect details. All the fan-redesigns didn't convince me at all, I wasn't very into full insect Bee demon, dunno, boring personally. For me, the current official Queen Bee is perfect for me :") I need to draw her one day yet eeeek- Also, it's a good plus her VA is Ke$ha, i also adore that singer X) I wish Bee appeared more in the series... I really miss her, she has pure good vibes...
💚 Mammon the motherfuckering Mamonazo (Spanish word joke). Yeah, luv that fat Christmas tree 🎄 He is charismatic and silly. He is also a true piece of shit and boss abuser ^^ yeah, very "villain" code for me, kinda similar to Valentino. Yeah, dunno, I love assholes like them :") And his Australian accent is fun and cool, sexappel to the accent 😭💚 like Spanish Valentino gjdjgjdskdn Accents are sexys, ok?? Can't wait to see him again in one of the future episodes :"D I want more of him so badly! Especially cause I enjoy the rivalry between him and Asmodeus 👀👉🏻👈🏻 When Sins battle? I love seeing Sins interacting with each other!
💙 Asmodeus the great fuzzy Ozzie aaains the Lust in person (literally). He must be the sexiest, in male and female form. I love the vibes of Asmodeus, I understand he wants to keep an image as King Sin of Lust but he is a marshmallow in private with his partner Fizz. Proud of him, he puts his lover over his public image at the end, but I'm sure there will be consequences for the poor man and I feel bad for him ;w; I also wish him the best. Such a loving partner, I would love an Ozzie in my life even if I am asexual 🥺😭 That daddy pls~ dat design~ fjdinfkeng ok enough horniness here. Although I must say he is a bit 🤏🏻 overprotective with Fizz in the episode where he is kidnapped together with Blitzø
And about the second question finally
Yeesssss!! I want all of them!! I'm hyped for their special episodes!!
I don't care if I don't know how the next Sins will be, I will simply take them and love them as they are uwu. In fact the silhouette of Satan (?) already looks rad and menacing 👀✨🔥🔥🔥 Can't to see him in full view~
Tumblr media
And about Leviathan and Belphegor, no idea how they will look but I am curious about Belphegor, the other female Sin together with Bee :"D All males except 2 fndjfn. Also I wish with all my strengths they all interact together! I want them like a big Sin family scene :") with a lot of drama like in every big family lmao. I would love Charlie could interact with her uncles and aunts honestly ;w; for me it's tender, and Lucifer too... Sins are my world, I love them with passion as the big dysfunctional family they are :")
Actually, I have thought of drawing a big Art piece with the 7 Sins together before anyone else does it 👀 if I have them all drawn already and i only have to add the left ones to the canvas, I will be the first hehe~
Well sorry for my big ass ramble!! >~<💦 I love fangirling and talking about my hyperfixations and nobody usually ask me anything so I get hyped when someone comes to ask me stuff 👉🏻👈🏻
Thanks for the ask, Anon 💕

My opinion on the G3 Monster High dolls
The G3 Monster High Dolls:
Tumblr media
This is a small review by an older fan who loves monster dolls but does not actually own this line of dolls.     I have read the official press releases and watched several youtube videos about the new line of dolls and I have seen the photos so bear with me.
First the good.  I think these dolls look sturdier than the G2 dolls.  The last line of Monster High Dolls were frail and broke easily.   I absolutely adore Draculaura’s new body type.  Making her shorter and curvier was a brilliant idea.  I also love that Frankie is now nonbinary.  Having one of the monsters go by they / them is a good update.  And because they are the child of the Frankenstein monster you can easily side-step the fanatical, conservative backlash by reminding the potential complainers that this character IS made of the parts of several dead people.  An alternate reason to be they / them.  
At first I did not like the idea of Frankie having a “bionic” leg.  I’m not a fan of steampunking the Frankenstein monster or the Frankenstein Monster’s child but I realized this could make Frankie more relatable to kids with prosthetic limbs.  So I warmed up to the idea and now find it charming.
I love the scales on Lagoona.  And I love the fur they added to Clawdeen.  These are good touches. And Cleo is fine.
I don't really like that Deuce's snakes are now "The Seven deadly sins."  He's from Greek mythology.  Stop Christianizing Greek mythology to make anti-Pagans comfortable with it.   It keeps misleading people about what the Greek myths are all about, like making Hades into a Satan-Stand-in in Disney's Hercules.   Now for the semi-bad.   I’m perfectly fine with the cultural / racial changes for Clawdeen
 and Lagoona though I think I’ll miss Lagoona being portrayed as having an Australian accent.  My one complaint here is having Clawdeen as multiracial is perfectly fine but I don’t really understand the “Half-werewolf” thing.  You either are a werewolf or you’re not.  It’s like being diabetic.  You can’t be half.   You inherit the werewolf curse (even if one parent isn’t a werewolf) or you don’t.  The “Half” thing doesn’t make sense to me.  A full werewolf but with one human parent still works, like the “half-bloods” in the Harry Potter books.  
Now for the parts I actually don’t like at all.   I (and apparently several other fans) don’t like the practice of witchcraft being used as a possible gay metaphor. The logic behind monsters being against the use of magick is a bit flimsy and didn’t even work well in Vampire Diaries or Blood Ties.  It sort of reminds me of when they made the Frankie Ghostbuster doll in 2016.  It was cute but you don’t want to think about the premise too long.  I like Draculaura practicing magick but wichcraft being frowned upon in a monster school is just silly to me. The one thing I think was a truly bad decision was changing Lagoona’s skin to pink.  Draculaura is already pink.  This just reenforces the old and wrong stereotypes that “These are just for girls.” and “Girls like pink, right?”  I’ve read the comments on the official Monster High website and it appears a lot of the younger demographic fans don’t like the change either.  Of course not.  She’s the daughter of The Creature from the Black Lagoon. And with semi-recent films like The Shape of Water people expect her to be blue or green. To me changing the color of Lagoona to pink was a big misstep.  It was already a big change to have her as no-longer Australian and lots of fans thought the accent in the promotional material and web series was cute.
Also they should NOT have removed Lagoona’s webbed hands.  Her webbed hands were cute and gave her a unique look.  They reminded me of the 2001 film She-Creature. I almost feel like they deliberately dropped the ball on Lagoona, like they don’t want her new doll to sell well. 
In general I think this was an improvement over the 2016 (G2) line of the dolls but still not as good as the 2010 G1 dolls.   The G2 dolls were cheaply made and the storyline given to them was clearly “borrowed” from the premise of Hotel Transylvania.  The only thing I liked about the G2 line was the presence of Count Dracula, himself, as founder of the school (Even if it felt like a knock-off of Hotel Transylvania).  I still missed the Headless Mistress and Ghoulia. I’d lose the Witchcraft is frowned upon in monster society angle, and quietly change Lagoona’s colors back to aqua.  Lose the pink.  Finally, yes, keep Clawdeen as multi-racial but as I said- folklorically speaking there’s no “I’m half werewolf.” You are or you aren’t.  The curse passes down even if one parent is human.  It’s like having a genetic disease, there’s no halving it.   
 The dolls are cute and I definitely like what they did with Draculaura and Frankie.  That’s pretty much all I have to say about it.

6 - HYBE Uni Gazette: a story is missing
Jake arrived excited at his new dorm at HYBE Uni. He was looking forward to starting his college life and meeting his new roommates. Upon entering the room, he came across Jungwon, who was concentrating on recording a video for TikTok.
Jake smiled upon seeing a short kitty looking face making a cute expression as he tried to hit the trend. He patiently waited until the other boy finished his recording before getting his attention.
"Excuse me, are you Yang Jumgwon?"
"I am. Hello." Jungwon bowed shyly
"I'm Sim Jaeyun, your new roommate."
"Pleasure to meet you."
The two were silent for a while. Jungwon looks away from his colleague, embarrassed (and low-key intimidated by his godly visuals), but he tries to break the ice by bringing up a random topic.
"Your accent... are you a foreigner?
"Yes. I moved from Australia to study engineering here, why?"
I was just curious. I have don't have many foreigners in my circle, so..."
Jake laughed, trying to make Jungwon more comfortable.
"It's okay, Jungwon. I was also curious about your Tiktok. Have you been recording for a long time?"
"Not much. I created my account 1 year ago."
"You're talented! Have you managed to go viral with one video?"
"Thanks! I try to have fun with it. Some of my trends have already gotten some views, but I'm still waiting for the big hit, you know?"
The Australian nodded, understanding perfectly.
"I'm sure you can. And if you need some support, I'm here to help jumpstart your trends."
"Really?" he asked surprised
"Of course! I do vlogs in my free time, so if you want some tips on how to kick off your content, let me know!"
"Thanks!"
The two began to chat in a relaxed way, sharing funny stories and common interests. Soon, they were laughing and getting to know each other better. Jake was happy to see Jungwon loosening up and feeling more comfortable in his presence.
As they exchanged stories and experiences, Jake realized that he would have a fun and friendly roommate during his stay at HYBE Uni. And that friendship promised to bring many memorable moments and laughs along the way.

the next day...
During the lunch break at HYBE Uni, Jay, Y/N, and Jungwon gathered in the cafeteria, excited to look for interesting stories they could share on the second episode of Love On Air. Everyone took their lunch and dispersed across the campus in search of good stories.
Y/N decided to explore the courtyard area, hoping to find students engaged in interesting conversations. However, she soon noticed that most conversations were about trivial or academic subjects. As she walked, she spotted Jake chatting animatedly with some friends at a nearby table. Curious, she walked over and tried to hear what they were talking about. Unfortunately, the voices blended together and she couldn't pick up on any interesting topics.
Meanwhile, Danielle, who was sitting on a nearby bench, accidentally overheard part of their conversation. Intrigued, she hid for a bit, deciding not to intervene for the time being.
"Found something interesting, noona?"
"Nope. We need to find a nice story for the this week's ep, but everyone just seems to want to listen to us because of the gossip. We're really struggling to find something really captivating."
"I get it. It's important that the podcast content is engaging and relevant. Let's keep looking, I'm sure we'll find something special."
Danielle, curious, leaned in a little closer to listen to the conversation, but kept hidden.
"I really want this episode to be amazing. I want to help people, but I also want to show how dedicated we are to this project. Love On Air is a unique opportunity for us."
"I strongly agree. We'll do our best to find a story that touches listeners' hearts. And it's okay if we don't find one today, we can explore other possibilities or try again tomorrow! We have time."
"You really know how to cheer me up, don't you?"
"Always. Besides, I'll also help you find a story, okay? Won't let our show flop for less!"
"Thanks Jake. I don't know what I would do without you."
"Take care, kitty." Jake asked giving Y/N a kiss on the forehead "See-ya"
Despite the sweet and friendly moment exchanged between the two, Yunjin was close to them and took a picture of the moment when Jake bent down to kiss his bestie's forehead. She smirked and left.
With no response, the trio takes advantage of the remaining time of the break to have lunch together, enjoying a lively conversation. Suddenly, they noticed that some people nearby were laughing and whispering, looking at them. Confused, Jake asked:
"What's going on? Why is everyone laughing at us?"
She frowned and quickly grabbed her cell phone, opening Twitter. Her eyes widened as she read a recent tweet from Beomgyu.
Tumblr media
Furious, she threw her phone on the table and stood up abruptly.
"This bastard must enjoy screwing with my life, doesn't he?!"
"What was that?" Jay asked lost in the middle of the conversation
"Beomgyu tweeted that Jake and I are dating! And these assholes fell for it!"
"I admit, this time he went too far!"
"That's right Jay! And if he thinks I'm going to stay here and take shit home, he's wrong! C'mon, guys!
⊹⊱•••《 💗 》•••⊰⊹
HYBE Uni's radio studio is a vibrant and bustling space located in a corner next to the auditorium. Upon entering, you are greeted by a glass door that reveals an environment full of creative energy. The walls are lined with acoustic insulation panels, absorbing any unwanted noise and providing an environment conducive to recording programmes.
In the center of the studio, there is a large mixing board, full of buttons and controls, which allows Social Communication students to adjust the audio of their productions. Microphones are strategically placed around the table, ready to be used for live shows or recordings.
At one of the tables, Beomgyu is sitting, with his phone in hand, entertained with Twitter. He types quickly, sharing his gossip with his followers. His sly smile reveals the satisfaction he finds in spreading rumors and messing with the lives of others.
But to his misfortune, his freshman who earned him record numbers in his lives, arrived at the studio opening with enormous strength and boiling blood in her eyes.
"WHERE IS CHOI BEOMGYU!?"
Upon arriving there with fists clenched in rage, she faces Beomgyu directly. Jay stands beside her, supporting her, while Jake crosses his arms, showing his dissatisfaction with the situation.
"Oh, look who's here! It's the campus' new lovebirds! What do you want?
"What do you think you're doing?" the freshman asks the question with fury.
He looks at her with a mocking smile on his face. "Just spreading some juicy news to our colleagues," he replied teasingly. "Don't you think they deserve a break from their routine?
She crossed her arms, exhaling indignation.
"But there's no excuse for what you've done! Who do you think you are spreading these baseless rumors about me and Jake?"
Jake nodded, looking equally pissed off.
"It's true, man! Me and Y/N are not dating! Besides, I just broke up with a real girlfriend! As hot as my best friend is…"
"Jake!" she called him out
"We're happy with each other's friendship, so what goes into our love lives is none of your business!"
Jay, who had heard about her friend's fight with her new roommate, took the opportunity to bring it up.
"By the way, what's this beef between a senior and a freshman about? What do you know about that shit?"
"Dude, do you think I'm not curious about this too?! I tried asking everyone but no one seemed to have the balls to tell me!"
"Lucky for you, Y/N is here to tell you everything. Tell him, noona, what was your classmate like?"
"Fine, Jay." she sighed and rolled her eyes. "He's tall, with blond hair shaved on the sides, has a fox-looking facial features but a gruesome fashion sense from what I've seen."
"Oh, I see you've just met Soonyoung-hyung, right?"
"Who?" the Australian and the Canadian asking in unison.
With his phone in hand, he opened her gallery, showing them photos of the man she described.
"Kwon Soonyoung, 27 years old, one of the members of Sector 17, the most influential senior group on campus right now. And they were some of my favorite targets to gossip about until your pretty little friend got here."
Y/N clenched her fists, feeling even more determined to deal with the situation. His answer only strengthened her resolve. She would no longer tolerate the rumors and the teasing. With a firm voice and eyes full of determination, she faced him making it clear that she would not allow him or anyone to spread false rumors about her personal life.
"From now on, I suggest you think twice before making up stories about people. Because I will no longer tolerate your bad jokes ever again."
Jay and Jake rested their hands on her shoulder in solidarity with her fight against the rumors and teasing.
"Okay, I'll delete the tweet. But just know, you won't get rid of the gossip so easily. Do something outrageous and I'll tweet about it! That's the price you pay for your rising popularity."
When he deleted the tweet, she felt a heavy weight lift off her shoulders. She hugged the boys and thanked them.
"Thanks guys, for real. I don't know what I would have done without you!"
"Don't thank us for this, little one." Jay ruffled her hair, demonstrating how proud he was of his friend. "The courage to put Beomgyu-hyung in his place came only from you."
"And what a courage! I even got chills when you raised the tone for him!" Jake hit her arm with his elbow.
"Forget it. Let's just get back to work."
"Wanna come?"
"No, Jake. If you don't mind, I'm gonna need some alone time."
"Of course we don't, noona." Jay replied "You deserve it after this stress."
"Thanks guys!"
They left the radio studio with their heads held high, determined not to let these rumors affect their friendship and their work on Love On Air. She knew that the consequences of that mess could still arise, but she was determined to face them alongside her friends.
⊹⊱•••《 💗 》•••⊰⊹
Still on that sunny afternoon on campus, Y/N found herself sitting on a quiet campus bench, away from her classmates who even after deleting her last tweet, still persist in laughing and making fun of her behind her back, so she needed to spare a moment for her to be immersed in her words, letting her mind play and her fingers guide her pink pen in the notebook, bringing her imagination to life. She was so wrapped up in her stories that she didn't even notice when a tall, pink-haired young man sneaked up on her with a mischievous smile on his lips. This is Hueningkai, her old childhood friend.
"Look who we have here?" he whispered in her ear "It's Kim Y/N, the secret writer!"
"Holy shit! You scared me! What are you doing here?"
"I was just taking a walk and I saw you there, so focused. I couldn't resist an opportunity to play with you a little."
"Always playing the class clown, aren't you? Now, give me back my notebook!
"Oh, this?" He held the notebook above his head, out of her reach. "I'll give you back, but only if you can catch me!" he teased running across the open court.
The two engaged in a lively romp, running and laughing together. The fun energy of the moment was infectious, causing them to temporarily forget about their problems and worries. While the sun illuminated the room, the students passed by them, curious about what was happening and infected by their laughter. The same boy with long dark blonde hair that Y/N had bumped into yesterday was one of them. He was heading to his class when he noticed movement on the court. He watched from afar, enchanted by her spontaneity and good mood. When he heard the harmonious sound of the girl's laughter, he laughed low with her. His eyes admired her every adorable feature, not wanting to get in the way of the fun the two were sharing.
"She's crazy." the boy whispered to himself "But so authentic, lively and… so damn pretty."
While they continued to play, the boy's presence remained discreet, admiring the unique glow that the freshman brought to the environment. He felt an inexplicable connection to her that he wondered what it was. Was it an attraction? Admiration? Passion? A simple desire to get to know her better? He didn't know, but he was sure that this was not the time to interrupt his excitement with that other boy. So he just left with his heart racing at the most adorable and cutest scene he had just witnessed.
Finally, Hueningkai stopped running and, with a bright smile, handed the notebook back to Y/N. She took it, panting, and looked at it curiously.
"Did you just wanted to read what I wrote?" she asked, her voice a little uncertain.
He nodded, his smile softened. "Of course! I was curious what inspires you so much. You're a talented writer."
Y/N felt her face flush at the compliment. She hadn't expected to hear such kind words from him. Her heart warmed with gratitude and happiness.
"Thanks," she said, with a shy smile. "I feel more confident now."
He placed a hand on her shoulder, looking into her eyes. "You should feel confident more often. Your talent is too incredible to be underestimated. If you ever publish one of your masterpieces, I will be your first fan in line!
The two exchanged a look full of complicity and smiles, knowing that that special moment had created a deeper connection between them. The innocent banter had revealed a gentler, more nurturing side to him, as she felt supported and encouraged in his talent.
With the notebook back in her hands, she felt inspired and motivated to keep writing, knowing she had the support of such a special friend. They walked back to campus together, sharing laughter and lively conversation, looking forward to facing the future with a new sense of confidence and friendship.

In his room at HYBE Uni's dorm, the screen lit up as Beomgyu prepared to start his Twitch live stream. He smiled excitedly at the camera and greeted his viewers.
"Zzup guys! Beomgyu's here! Today, we're playing League of Legends! I, of course, will put on a show in the mid lane! But this time I won't be playing alone, as I'll have my best partners in crime! Please welcome Soobin-hyung and Hueningkai!"
Soobin and Hueningkai joined him on screen, waving at the camera and greeting the excited viewers.
"Hey chat! I'm Soobin."
"And I'm Hueningkai!"
Beomgyu started to pick his champion, preparing for the match.
"NO!" he screamed when he saw his LeBlanc banned by Hueningkai
"Are you scared, hyung?" the maknae scoffed, arching an eyebrow.
"Shut up, your brat. I got everything under control."
Soobin, with a mischievous smile, replied, "Oh, don't think you're going to take the match alone. We're not here to give you peace of mind."
Hueningkai added, laughing: "That's right hyung, let's put on a show and wipe out your immunity! I hope you're prepared to lose!"
"Lose? You know this ain't gonna happen, right?"
The trio laughed, feeling the excitement in the air as the match began. Beomgyu took his position, focusing on farming and gaining an advantage against his opponents.
"Guys! Thanks for the Prime and Re-Subs! You're all the best!"
The chat room exploded with messages of support and donations. He was feeling on top of the world. However, he didn't know that his friends had something planned for him.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"Oh, for sure, Soobin-hyung! I guess it's time to flip our strategy!"
The two exchanged knowing glances, preparing to surprise him. Meanwhile, he was focused on his match, trying to increase his lead.
"Calm down, chat! I'm doing great. Let's show them what I'm capable of."
However, when he was about to destroy the enemy turret, he was shocked to see that Hueningkai, instead of defending it, destroyed it.
"What?! YA, HUENINGKAI, what are you doing?!"
"Sorry hyung. I think my hand slipped!"
"Don't worry. We're gonna help you!"
His viewers, initially taken aback, started laughing and commenting in the chat. His round, which had been going so well, began to take an unexpected turn.
"Hold on! Are you plotting against me, aren't you?!"
"We warned you at the beginning, but you wouldn't listen to us."
"Exactly! Prepare for defeat, Beomgyu-hyung!"
"Hahaha! That was quite a game, wasn't it, Soobin-hyung?"
"Absolutely! But don't worry, there are always rematch opportunities out there!"
Despite being defeated, he couldn't stay angry for long. He ended up laughing along with his friends, acknowledging what a brilliant move they had made.
"Okay, you won this time! But next time, I'll rip off your smirks."
The chatroom erupted with laughter and applause, and viewers enjoyed every moment of the banter between the friends. It was a fun and memorable moment that brought the trio even closer together and showed the charisma and good humor worthy of their peculiarities that make them so special.

There's a viral Tweet going around that says "kids today are missing out of the pre-streaming era, where your childhood was at least partially defined by some semi-obscure movie your family just happened to own on tape and you watched several dozen times" and it reminded me of an obscure kids film I loved as a child: a movie from 1995 called Napoleon about a puppy in Sydney, Australia that accidentally flies to the Australian Outback in a hot air balloon. The movie was Australian but the version I grew up with was an American dub. No idea why someone decided to dub it over with American actors. Did they think Americans were too stupid to understand Australian accents? Actually maybe there are Americans too stupid to understand Australian accents. I laugh at this but also when I watched the British film Billy Elliot I had to watch it with subtitles because the British accents were so strong so...🤡  Anyway, this movie's adorable and I loved it so much. I wonder if I still have the DVD somewhere.
