Death Is An Unwanted Guest

warnings: mentions of death, injury, angst

This is an alternate ending to one of my characters storyline!! Also english isnt my first language, sorry for any mistakes, this is translated from Turkish and since this is an alternatetive ending the writing on this one isnt that good.

_______________________________________

"Someone to watch me die."

Purpose.

Throughout history mortals died for their purposes. Which made no sense because the only true purpose was always death.

This realization hit Eris when she was only seconds away from meeting that true purpose. She always loved that there was an end to everything. All sufferings met an inevitable end. But she never realised that meant all of happiness also met an inevitable end. It never crossed her mind that meeting her friends would be the end of her misery. She thought only death could shut the stupid voices in her head, only death could make her forget those memories and save her. She felt as if she was sailing through a river during a storm. Her little rowboat was crashing into the rocks in the river. So she found herself looking forward to the cliff at the end of it.

But then she met them. At first her cold exterior, her armour stayed on. She told herself she was only helping them because she wanted to succed and they did the same because they wanted to survive. But, man, was she wrong. All her walls came crashing down as those reliant idiots patched her broken wings. A spark of trust fueled the fire of love. She found her place beside them. She found her family.

She didnt want to die anymore.

However fate is cruel. Death never comes to you when you expect it and she was moments away from it.

She was down on the ground, her right leg was bleeding out, her friends were too far away to hear her cries for help and those damned creatures were getting awfully close. She felt weak as her attempts to get up on her feet failed, she could only hide for so long.

"Get up, kid." a man's familiar voice spoke. She looked around to see him, but she couldnt see anyone. At this point she was sure she was losing her mind. Which is funny because everyone else already thinks she lost it and that might just be true since she responded to the voice.

"I cant." she said as pain broke her voice.

"I didn't train you all those years so you could die." A figure stepped out of the shadows. A face that brought her comfort everytime.

"Ares? How are you here?" she asked as he lifted her up to her feet and helped her find balance.

"How are you this beaten up?" he responded. "I thought you were better than this."

"I'm fine." she said, why was he like this? The worry in his eyes was sweet but his sharp tone hurt. He was the father she found, though she never really told him that, she couldnt help but feel like she disappointed him.

"Good, because you have to fight." he said coldly. She nodded and gripped her weapon.

"You'll help me?"

"I wouldn't be here otherwise." he said. They got out of the hiding spot with his mark, drawing attention from the creatures. They darted into the two of them. It was hard to move, hard to attack, hard to breathe when her leg was injured this bad. She just thanked whatever's above that she could at least stand. Creatures could easily respond to her sloppy attacks so she started to dodge their attacks instead of attacking herself. Maybe that would tire them out. She wanted to check on Ares but she couldnt even see him. The creatures looked as ugly as her wound. They didnt even have skin, how could they attack so well?

She had to stop dodging at some point. She slung her sword towards the creatures, aiming one of them, killing it succesfully. She winced as pain rushed through her body with each and every movement. After a while she thought she got the hang of it but she felt one of their claws slash a deep wound into her side. She yelped loudly but waisted no time. Killed that one too. Adrenaline made her mind black out. Her mind couldnt even comprehend what she was doing or what was happening. By the time she pulled herself together there were a few creatures left. She could now see Ares fighting. At least he was safe. She fought until each creature laid dead on the ground.

"Good fight, kid." Ares said as he approached her. He didnt seem to notice the wound as she held her side. Her legs didnt seem to be working anymore as she let herself fell to the ground.

And she was finally victorious. The warrior of chaos fell to the ground, victorious. Dying but at least she put up a fight. But.. well, that wasn’t important. The important thing was that she was covered in her own blood, which stained the ground below her. Immediately, he rushed to her.

He knelt by her side, staring at her. He wanted to heal her wounds, to save her, but he couldnt do anything but stare. Pathetic.

“Youre hurt...” He breathed out, frowning.

"It's okay. I'm okay." she gave him a weak smile.

Ares wanted to yell. To say that no, she wasn’t okay. She was covered in her own blood, wounds decorating her skin. But he couldn’t show his emotions. He knew he was meant to keep calm for her.

“You did good. You won.” he said slowly.

"Did i make you proud?" she asked and reached for his hand. He gave her hand a squeeze.

"Of course. You always do." Her smile widened, he smiled back. He felt his eyes burning with tears but he held them back. "You're not dying, Eris." he said sharply.

"Okay, i'm not dying." she nodded. "Can you hug me?"

Ares stiffened, but he leaned down and gently wrapped his arms around his warrior. He had to be careful though, he didn’t want to press on her wounds. He held onto her tightly, trying to be a little gentle while also trying to keep his cold demeanour up. But the feeling of her being so close and hurt and cold and fragile only tore his heart apart inside. Eventually, he slowly pulled back from the embrace just enough to look down at her. He was unable to heal her and it killed him but what choice he had rather making her comfortable until the healer arrive? Because he was going to find them. He had to.

When he looked at her, she had tears in her eyes that she didnt let go. She held onto him as if he was her life that was slipping away.

"I dont want to die." she said quietly.

He froze, hearing those words only made him want to shout. To yell at whatever god was responsible for this. The warrior who everyone expected to be strong and powerful was only a child, his child. He gently ran a hand through her hair. He failed to keep his tears from falling.

"You wont." he whispered. "You're strong. You'll make it."

"Yeah." she chuckled. "Because i'm your daughter, right?"

He smiled through tears.

"Exactly." he said. "I raised you to survive."

But his faith was disappering as her touch began to feel like a ghost. She felt colder and lighter.

"Kid." he called to her desperately. "Dont."

"Everything's okay." she muttered as her eyes slowly closed. "I'm just tired."

He shook her but she didnt respond. Sobs grew in his throat, he hugged her cold body. She couldnt be gone, right? She couldnt be gone because that would mean she would become one of those people who he could only find in memories and pictures. She couldnt be gone because she promised him years ago when he found out about her attempts to end her life. She couldnt be gone because that would mean she would never grow up, she would never get her command like she always wanted.

"Then rest." he said, he didnt even know why. "You deserved it."

[gwenguistics]

have you ever noticed how in English, the y-sound can only occur after a consonant if it’s also before /u/? or a schwa that used to be a /u/. 

like, the only time you get consonant-y-vowel is in words like pure, cure, mute, feud, beauty, etc. i know the historical reasons why those words are pronounced the way they are (it’s largely because of influence of early French on early English), but so where did the other sequences of consonant+y.... go? other languages can do that, and you get words like Spanish fiesta (which we borrowed as fee-esta by the way, not fyesta, because of this phenomenon), Korean hyeong, Japanese Kyōto, Old Norse Mjǫllnir, etc etc etc, you get the idea. we can have other vowels after y-sounds in words like “yes”, “yikes”, “yonder”, and “yam”, but English does not seem to allow other consonants to be placed at the beginning of those words. “myes”, “byikes”, “pyonder”, and “kyam” are not allowed. 

now, those y-sounds in the those words in those other languages derive from different sources, and actually all of those words can be traced back etymologically to not having a y-sound in those spots. fiesta arises from Latin festa via Spanish’s breaking of stressed e and o into ie and ue respectively. hyeong and kyōto are Korean and Japanese borrowings of words from Middle Chinese, in this case MC hˠwiæŋ and kˠiæŋ(tuo) respectively, both of which have an i-sound sort of as a lead-in to the nucleus vowel, but aren’t strictly speaking reconstructed as having been y-sounds. and besides, reconstructions of Old Chinese apparently say that those two words originally had r-sounds in those places, and changes to consonant clusters and the vowel are what produced the y-like sounds which were in the words at the times they were borrowed into Korean and Japanese. Old Norse Mjǫllnir is apparently from Proto-Germanic meldunaz, so this is another instance of an e breaking into a y+vowel combination. the English words pure, cure, cube, etc get their y-sounds from early English speakers rendering the French u-sound into English, so the French u (which is pronounced like saying “eeeee” but with your lips rounded) was borrowed as “yu”, which is a close enough approximation. 

so, i wonder why this is. y is a semivowel, a sound that is somewhere between consonant and vowel, and so is w. but, w actually does appear in a lot of root words in English, and didnt arise from changes to a vowel or consonant... it has always been in those positions for as far back in time as linguists can reconstruct. words like “two” (which isnt pronounced with a w now, but it used to be pronounced with a w and then a long o-sound, and the w still surfaces in related words like “twice” and “twenty”), “dwell”, “swing”, etc still have a consonant-w-vowel sequence that is thought to have been there in Proto-Indo-European too. 

i imagine it’s because y-sounds are extremely prone to affecting sounds around them, so when they arise in a language, they may not last very long, though you’ll see traces of their presence afterwards. whether it involves palatalizing the preceding consonant, fronting the following vowel, or anything like that, they change the sounds around them and then just sometimes.... vanish. sometimes they change the sounds around them so much that including a y-sound there is sort of unnecessary afterwords, like if the sequence “kyeh” would have the k change to a ch-sound in front of the y and the short e (like in “beg”) change to a short i (like in “big”) because of the y right before it, the resulting word “chyih”... doesnt need the y-sound, right? isn’t that kind of hard to say? chyih? it would probably come out as “chih” much more naturally. alternatively, the reason w-sounds stick around longer (though they also often change and alter the sounds around them, and often disappear too, but seemingly a bit less commonly) might just be because rounding your lips is much more distinctive, and since it doesnt involve your tongue much at all, it’s less likely to completely alter the way a word is said the same way that y-sounds do. w’s are like instagram filters you can slap onto a word to color it sometimes lol. 

hmm i dont really have a point to this, i’m just kinda.. observing. so um, i guess that’s the end of my infodump. thanks lol

The Freedom of Expression - Ep 5, Quarantining of infected people in the Olympic village?

Note: *This episode was recorded in March 2020*

Hi, This is Dir en grey's Kaoru, starting another installment of The Freedom of Expression. I've revived this show on youtube, from when we did it on the radio station InterFM.

J, T: Thank you so much.

K: So, Joe san, Tasai san, we are here again, as a continuation from last time where we were talking about the corona virus....Well, how do we think things will go from now on?

J: Yes, well, if you ask reporters and such, despite the counter measures being a bit muddled, it isn't really taking hold in Japan, therefore, I really think the number of infections will start to drop. I think we'll definitely be coming to the end of this before long. No matter what, you see an exponential increase at some point, and when that happens, the absolute number of infections increases. But at the present moment, that is kind of leveling out, so there is the view that if we stick to this path until the end, the number of infections will eventuall drop. However, like you said Kaoru, even if this comes to an end, will the economy quickly revover? You know, if people get used to this new lifestyle, we'll have quite a conservative, sensitive situation. Whats it going to be like if people continue trying to avoid close contact with others? I think thats the scariest thing. And then, what about the Olympics, will it go ahead or won't it? Well, thats for Tokyo Sports right? After all your name is 'Tokyo Sports' newspaper.

T: No, no, no....but they'll do it won't they? What do you think?

K: What exactly is Tokyo Sports' view?

T: Well, we had a staff meeting recently, and we generally thought there is an atmosphere that it will go ahead.

J: Yeah, there is no option NOT to go ahead with it, but there is the option of postponing it?

T: Well, yes.

J: It could be an option.

T: I don't really think it will be postponed though.

J: One interesting thing I've heard after talking to journalists and such, is that as for the timing of the olympics, Japan can't really decide that at all. In other words, it fits with America's schedule. It fits during the time that America's sports are off seaon. It doesn't really matter to the hosting nation. So it can be postponed if America says thats ok. If thats not the case, honestly, its less a problem of Japan's corona situation, but from the American side, the issue of the huge investment in broadcasting rights. So I've a feeling this issue will be cleared up over there.

T: If it came to that, it (the olympics), will probably go ahead right?

J: I think so yes. No matter what Japan's government or the Olympic committee says, if the one with the strongest power (America) says they want to do it, then we'll have to do it, I feel.

K: But this virus mutates doesn't it?

J,.T: Yes, thats right.

K: If that happened, and things worsened, it would be terrible, wouldn't it?

J: Yes, well, at the moment a lot sporting areas, including the olympics, are thinking about spectator-less games etc.. Well, anyway, there is this problem about what to do about the virus, what to do about the olympics but I've heard that Tokyo Sports put out an article relating to the olympics and corona?

T:  Ah, yes thats right. Well, we wrote an article about how people infected with coronavirus, could be isolated in the the olympic village.

J: Thats ??? *1

T: But, isnt it the best place? No one is using it...

K: Did they already finish building it?

T: Yes, its finished.

J: Has there been any response from the government about that?

T: Nah, I don't think the government pays much attention to what Tokyo Sports says. *the others laugh loudly*

J: I wonder if any people in the government actually read Tokyo Sports?

T: Oh, a lot of them do, but they think because we are Tokyo Sports, they can ignore what we say. *the others laugh* But, there will be about 18,000 people at the olympics, so for now thats enough space, right?

J: Yes, its enough

T: So people can be properly isolated..

J: and its all set up already..

T: and then if you sterilize it properly, its still really reasonable to use. But I don't think the government will like the idea.

Kami: They sold the land for a really cheap price didn't they?

T: Yes, well...yes.

Kami: For about a tenth of the normal price?

T: Im not so sure about the details.

Kami: Shouldn't it be ok? If they sold it that cheaply? It should be ok, right? *T laughs*

J: Well, thats right. But I think this is a very reasonable suggestion from Tokyo Sports, its quite unlike you guys *K laughs*

T: Yeah, we speak sense occasionally...

J: Even though you usually only write absurd or unlikely stuff, this time its a very reasonable suggestion.

T: We get serious in times of crisis.

J: Oh, is that so? I see.

T: So, after the olympics, they plan to sell of the olympic village as regular apartments. In that case, the value will fall, right? If they have been previously used for corona patients?

J: Oh, is that it?

T: So thats an idea too.

J: I see.

Kami: Its about 30 mins from the station isn't it? So its great for isolating, right?

J: Well, yes, thats true.

Kami: Because its far away...Its perfect really.

J: It is perfect, yeh. It has all the requirements.

Kami: And there's a lot of remaining land around there, right?

T: Yeah, there is.

Kami: If you stop cars and have a bus instead or something, you could build loads of hospitals/sick bays.

T: I think thats a good idea.

J: Me too.

Kami: It would be really effective.

J: Well, testing is a problem at the moment, the number of tests..well, you can't get tested at the moment.

T: Thats right.

K: Some countries are doing drive-thru testing aren't they?

J: Yes. I can't help feeling Japan's approach is a bit muddled.

K: Hmm, but the number of people dying is under control right?

J: Right, yes.

T: Well, Japan's insurace system works really well, we are kind of blessed, medically speaking.  But in America, Tamiflu or such costs 25,000 yen.

J: Thats right.

T: So in America, theres people who want to go to hospital, but can't.

J: The cost of hospitals over there is really tough! So if you look at it from that perspective, it might be ok here....Still, the time for the Olympic judges to decide about a postponment is gradually nearing...I feel like its gonna be 'No more waiting!'.

Kami: But, no matter what happens, the olympics probably won't be postponed, right?

J: Yeh, I don't think it will be postponed.

Kami: If they push ahead with it, the athletes will come won't they?

J: Yep

Kami: Professional soccer players and other really rich athletes won't come though. So it will only be athletes who really place value on getting the gold medal, they'll risk catching corona for it, so i think it can be done. Spectators won't come though.

J: Well, there will be fewer spectators, yes. But if you do it in the Autumn, America's professional athletes won't be able to take part and America's medal count will decrease, that will be one problem. If America's medal count decreases, American TV ratings will fall, and if you think about that, it makes me think they will push to go ahead with it in the summer.

T: It looks like the golf player Dustin Johnson and other top players have given up on the olympics.

J: Oh right..

T: Its been talked about that (Tiger)Woods could come instead. Woods would be more popular maybe?

J: Is he ok with it?

T: I wonder if he is? *laughing*

K: We don't even know whether he's ok with it or not.

J: I want to know why he would come.

K: Well, yeh, there are gonna be athletes who don't want to come, right?

J: Oh yeh, there will be, though its strange to talk about. Lots of people cancelled thier trips to Japan with the radiation problem after 3/11 (Great Eastern Japan earthquake and tsunami), so when you think about that...the information coming to Japan, and the information coming to the English speaking world is probably a lot different. The media in Japan works in a very local way, but overseas, they have a lot more channels, and alternative media is really taking off. They have info from various sources, so i think there may be some athletes looking at this and deciding not to come.

K: Asian people are facing a bit of discrimination over there too, aren't they?

J: Yes, thats right.

T: Oh, yeah.

K: Even us, when we were in Europe recently, we were stared at a lot for wearing masks.

T: Really?

K: When we went into a bakery, the bread was all laid out like usual, but they were so annoyed at us.

J: Really? Wow! They treated you as if you were infected?

K: Yes, yes. We were only taking prevention measures. But they don't do that over there do they?

J: They don't.

T: Yeh, it seems like they don't.

K: Well, i don't know about now.

J: So, theres also this problem of discrimination developing now. Its possible that chaos might happen, doing the Olympis in this situation. Thats also another perspective. If someone coughs in the stadium or something, trouble might break out.

T: Thats it.

J: Its a little worrying.

Kami: I don't think there will be any spectators though.

J: Well, maybe thats right.

Kami: They havn't said 'no spectators', but there will be hardly anyone there.

K: Yeh, people won't come.

Kami: Not going ahead with the olympics would probably result in less deficit.

J: Perhaps. But its gonna be really hard for those businesses that rely on the crowds.

Kami: Yeh, bars and such.

T: Bars, and the general night life industry that has a lot of customers who are visiting from overseas.

J: There are a lot of stores near the venues who are feeling like this right now, they've already installed big TVs in advance, or prepared English menus and stuff. They were expecting these customers. So its very painful for the people who have invested, to suddenly lose that. Well, anyway, the night life is really quiet at the moment. Was it last week? I went for drinks at Keisei Tateishi.

T: Oh, cheap bars right?

J: Keisei Tateishi is, yeh, cheap bars. Theres loads of popular places there like nabe, or sushi places, its full from mid-afternoon normally. But it was empty! I was shocked!

K: I went to see a friend's fashion exhibition near Shinbashi, but at night, it was packed!

J: Oh really?

K: They were saying, 'Don't take photos of me', they were trying to keep it a secret from thier company that they had been out drinking.

J: Really? *laughing* Well, a lot of companies are doing work from home now, its awkward if you get exposed going out drinking.

K,T: Yes, it is!

K: Well, we don't know when everything will be opened back up, but to everyone watching, please wash your hands, gargle, get good nutrition, boost your immunity..

T: *laughing* Its like a health show!

J: One thing I want to say is, the virus can't infect rock, and music.

K: Right

J: No mistake about that.

K: Ok, lets finish this installment here. See you again next time. Thank you very much.

[lalalizzy16fitness]

Halloween movies; most don’t survive. Don’t get caught; STAY, ALIVE!

Best time of the year, best time of year to die. Bet. We all know there can be only one (one that survives anyway), let’s make that you. If you’re like me, sometimes the best part is screaming at the screen “Look behind you!” or “Don’t touch that, idiot!” or my personal favorite, “DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT COULD KILL HIM!?” When you are on the outside looking in (although I personally feel I am an expert and would easily survive a 2000’s slasher film) it seems pretty simple to outsmart the killer/demon/thing that just wants horny teenagers to die. But when you’re being chased by a chainsaw connected to a 7ft tall behemoth wearing your friends face for a mask, there are certain things that may slip your mind. So, that being said, in the spirit of the spookiest time of year, here are some rules (you can tattoo them to your forearm for future reference if you are really worried) to guarantee you are the allocated single horny teenager that escapes (barely, and gravely injured), alive.

Listen To the Kid / Old Lady

The wisdom of children and the elderly is questioned more often than any other age group, so it makes sense that in horror movies they reveal the truth of the situation first (often within the first 15 minutes of the film). The child usually ends up being the protagonist or close to them, while the elderly usually act as a prophetic warning. Naturally, neither is heeded by the other characters, paying for it rather quickly. Stay a step ahead of the enemy; (children are stupid and eat glue) but if you are in a 90s horror film listen to the kid or the old lady.

Don’t Sneak Up On Your Friends

Horror movies are often populated with irritating (and expendable) characters that make it very hard to sympathize with them, and part of this is the obnoxious way in which they like to make their presence know. EVERY horror film has that scene where the friend suddenly slaps their hand on the jumpy pals shoulder, scaring the pee out of them. Who actually does that? Honestly? Then acts surprised that their friend jumps or screams. Monsters don’t like imitators.

ALWAYS ASSUME THE MONSTER ISNT DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!

Near the end of every horror movie, the remaining character(s) finally defeat the monster. They pat themselves on the back in sweet relief; all the while the audience knows (biting their nails, waiting for the jump scare), the monster is in fact (surprise!) NOT dead. It comes back to life for one last scare. The menacing monster rises back into the menacing frame menacingly. The characters are surprised, oh no! They are forced to continue fighting back, only to “kill” it once again (often times in the most gruesome way so far in the film). Many characters will go so far as to stick their face into the monsters and start poking it, just to assure it is finally back in whatever hell it came from. The monster is largely of course unharmed, a simple headshot would end it all (unless you are dealing with a demon or an apparition upon which a ritual of some sort is appropriate), but for some unexplained teenage horny reason the assumption is its dead. They either leave STAT. Or the most annoying ones of all slump to the ground, gasping for air while the monster rises (menacingly) in the background.

Don’t Do Drugs

Every horror movie has drug users. Much like sex, you horny degenerate fucks. Your fate is already sealed. To your credit you stick to the easier stuff, alcohol and marijuana, but killers are straight edge and don’t stand for that shit in their good Christian neighborhoods.

Don’t Be the Jerk

The one constant in horror is that the “jerk” is a death sentence. There’s nothing worse than the guy who refuses to cooperate with everyone else during times of crisis, thus the horror gods smite him of his life, and the audience is disappointed but not surprised. The moral of the story in this bloody teaching moment is to be nice kids! Be a team player!

Don’t Have Sex

Slasher films from the 70s onward firmly established that pointy boobs and having sex while a maniac is on the loose will kill you. For whatever reason (I suspect sexual frustration), monsters hate walking in on two unmarried teens going at it. Also, why do the teens INSIST on banging in the strangest places? (Forests, barns, and even morgues. What the fuck.) Practically begging for the killer to intervene. Frankly, I don’t blame him. If I was camping with my wife and kids and some teens decided to bang nearby within earshot of my toddlers, I might kill them. If they weren’t in a horror film, and this was real life, they might just get killed anyway, by some… deranged drifter or some shit. More recent horror films however are bending this rule, abstinence does NOT guarantee survival, but it still most certainly increases the odds.

Don’t Touch Anything Strange

I would say 50% of all horror movies situations wouldn’t happen if the characters were raised better and their mothers taught them to keep their hands to themselves. Example: Dark, decrepit, old, basements and attics suddenly become the touching tanks at an aquarium. Then upon finding an ancient looking book filled with ritualistic notes they can’t decipher but notes at the bottom in English they CAN read that say something along the lines of, “DO NOT READ OR REPEAT, DO NOT SAY OUT LOUD, ALL MY FRIENDS ARE DEAD, YOUR EYES WILL FALL OUT, YOUR TEETH WILL TURN TO LIQUID, YOU WILL BE CRUCIFIED, YOU WILL BE BURNED ALIVE, EVERY T.V. SHOW YOU DECIDE TO START WATCHING WILL HAVE SPOILERS IN SKY WRITING ABOVE YOUR HOME FROM NOW ON!” They read it in a horny teenager accent, and the horrible demon is unleashed.

Don’t Go Alone

Man does not survive alone, characters in horror films go against this logic (I literally cannot think of ONE horror flick where they don’t), and split up when staying together is safer. Insane killers, zombies or some type of monster your odds of survival rise substantially when you have the help of other horny teenagers to rely on. The alternate universe where horror movies take place it is the better idea to go it alone to investigate the noise you heard in the creepy forest. The result? Being pinned to a tree by something sharp and pointy through your stomach (or head depending on the stage of the film).

Don’t Take Vacations in Secluded Areas

The creepy secluded cabin in the woods the rich characters parents own. Classic. No cell reception, who would have thought? Murders took place in the basement years ago and my parents never told me? This is an outrage! The caller is coming from inside the house!? (Wait I thought there was no cell reception…?) Anyway, in the world of horror, secluded areas outside of modern civilization (it’s not like Jason Voorhees is a part of his homeowners association), is a breeding ground for demons, killers, and diseases. Take a vacation to Candyland. (But watch out for that Gloppy… I don’t trust that guy).

Pay Attention to Your Surroundings (If You Don’t Do This Already Maybe Take This as A Life Lesson)

The real reason and most realistic reason so, so many characters fall prey to their assailants is because they simply don’t pay attention to their surroundings, outside of investigating a sometimes very easily explained noise in the distance. The monster is watching them from the bushes 100ft away but nope, let’s play beer pong, other horny teens! Then BAM… the monsters right behind you and just like the dentist, it’s always too late. It’s almost comical. Pay attention homie.

Happy Halloween suckas’

[tumblunni]

Today's random mood is soft thoughts about my headcanon of McKraken being Squisker's adopted nephew before things went wrong

* Squisker was the very beloved mayor of the springdale yokai realm, which i am choosing to call Springdoom until we get a canon name, yes. He was 100% a good dude and Mckraken falsely accused him of the crimes that got him imprisoned away in the infinate inferno, in an attempt at a coup to take his power and begin his anti human warfare. But also i think itd be saddest if Mckraken did genuineky care for his uncle, and he'd just become so carried away in his obsession for revenge that he started getting paranoid that all his loved ones were plotting against him. He's probably haunted every day by what he did and after his redemption the first thing he did was fight his way thru the inferno to set right what he'd done wrong!

* They first met when Squisker was just idly visiting the human world and stumbled upon a baby yokai all curled up and scared in the wreckage of a beach destroyed by an oil spill. Originally he just wanted to help the kid get to the yokai world and find a new family, but then the lil guy called him "unca" and his heart(s) were totally melted! It kinda helped give the old man a reason to live again, during a very melancholy time of his life.

* Imagine babby mckraken sleeping in the sink cos he is just a smol squiddy and does not understand fancy society yet. "But why would you have a tiny pond thats not for sitting in!" Squisker introduces him to the concept of beds and he's initially very suspicious of this strange land rock. But then he bounces up and down on it and its just like waves! Its a magical sea land hybrid!!

* Various funny circumstances of squisker being this fancy politician man and trying to introduce a feral sea child to high society. Even funnier if the rules of yokai high society are wildly different to humans, like you have to hold every single fancy fork simultaneously in your tentacles! Possibly some cute moment where the kid's innocent 'but why' questions get squisker to realize he's being all stuffy and fancy when its not really necessary, and maybe itd be fun to loosen up and enjoy himself?

* Melancholy episode where babby mckraken keeps trying to adopt fishies from the human world and bring them home to protect them. Squisker has trouble explaining that mortals cant survive for long in the underworld, which would require first explaining to this poor kid what death is and that he's dead...

* maybe possibly one of those fish does come back as a yokai decades later when mckraken is all grown up, and pledges eternal loyalty to him for the kindness he showed as a child? And thats the backstory of that one fish boat boss dude everyone forgets.

* Headcanon of maybe mckraken's signature inspiriting power is 'colourlessness' or 'nothingness'? He can drain energy out of stuff with his weird hand mouths and it turns black and white. And perhaps for maximum angst the reason Mckraken himself is colourless is because that day his paranoia overtook him and he betrayed his closest family member, he used his own powers on himself to erase his emotions enough to be able to silence those doubts...

* Alternative headcanon is just that turning colourless is somethibg that naturally happens to yokai who lose all hope. Supported mostly just by the fact whisper is a notable white yokai who isnt part of The White Yokai, and also his backstory form had more colour and that backstory was really damn tragic...

* Oh and Squisker only attacks you in the infinate inferno because he's gone mad from rage and grief and just attacks everything indiscriminately. This is actually canon to his japanese medallium entry! (Though him being a good guy before being imprisoned and him being a father figure to mckraken is all speculation)

* so imagine a post redemption mckraken teaming up with you to try and recsue his uncle from the prison he put him in, ans its super depressing when he gets to squisker's cell and sees he's so far gone theyre gonna have to fight him. And maybe some sort of scene of him shielding you from one of squisker's attacks and getting heavily wounded, to prove how he really is legit about earning his redemption?and its this moment of kindness that makes squisker recognise this is his nephew, and come back to his senses. And i can just imagine mckraken weeping because what right do i have to be forgiven? You stupid old man, youre way too naive! Sobbing and hugging him and in his eyes squisker can see the sad young child he adopted so long ago, finally free of the chains of hatred he'd destroyed himself with. And then theyd go back together to the town and of course all the citizens woukd be like HOLY SHIT SQUISKER'S BACK, WE'RE SORRY WE DIDNT BELIEVE YOU, OH GOD MCKRAKEN TRIED TO TAKE OVER THE HUMAN WORLD and they immediately wanna elect him back to his old position. But Squisker insists on letting mckraken back into the town and giving him a second chance as his chairman, as well as his nephew. Claims its just because 'oh well ive been gone so long, i need someone who knows more about modern politics'. And probably works his ass off to clear his nephew's name and convince everyone that mckraken did what he did because of his love for this city, even if it was wrong it proves that he has a good heart and you should let him have a second chance! Aaand its hard to disagree i guess when the guy most affected by mckraken's takeover is also the one arguing for his redemption! The whole time mckraken is probably grumping about trying to deny it all and being like 'no put me in the prison its what i deserve NO I DO NOT HAVE ANY REDEEMING TRAITS DAMMIT'

* anyway i just like stories about broken families trying again, even if they cant be exactly how they used to be, as long as they both want to be a famuly again then they can be something new thats equally as good.

* also cute squid dad slice of life adventures is probably the most blessed sentence in the english language

* imagine babby mckraken always hiding shyly behind squisker cos he's never met any other yokai before and he doesnt know how to make friends with the other kids. But i dunno, maybe squisker is like 'youre such a bright young child you can help the others learn to swim!' or some other case of finding something he's good at and encouraging it as a way to bond with others. Oh maybe Mckraken's cooking skills started with learning to cook with his uncle and bringing snacks to school and all the other kids would be jealous? So he just sorta ended up with a tendancy to make food for people, which stuck around even when he turned evil. Still gotta open every evil meeting with sake and sushi! Gotta nag your minions that theyre not eating enough and they need to take care of their health! Gotta spend eighty hours decorating an elaborate layer cake as stress relief from dealing with that lousy human kid. Now grab a plate and sit yer asses down, you damn layabouts! Youre gonna cherish every mouthful, god dammit!! Also he totally wears lil oven mitts on all his tentacles.

This has been a miscellaneous ramble of squid redemptions, goodnight y'all

170806 Snuper Fansign

So of course after going to one fansign, I couldn't just leave it at that... my sister and I both managed to get in this time! I was so excited when I saw both our names on that list.

So I ended up being number 10 and at Jongno its a weird set up like the fans basically sit on a steep flight of stairs, and I was... right... in the front oh my god. It meant I would go at the beginning which I was iffy about but DAMN would I have a good view.

So of course they come out, and there they are, amazing. And then the staff is suddenly bothering to go up, and since everyone else is suddenly absent (like they always do) I went first............. I was freaking out.....!

Taewoong

Since I was being so rushed, I forgot to get the post it out with my name on it. So I greeted Taewoong and he kind of stared down at my album like "Uhhhh...." and then looked up at me and smiled and was like "Justine?" and he said it so brightly and I was LOSING MY MIND ON THE INSIDE BECAUSE HE REMEMBERED MY NAME... DUDE I LOVE YOU...  But I was just like "Yea yea!" He read my post-it (I wrote the same one for all the members this time, I told them I was leaving tomorrow and to write me a sweet message with my name in it). Honestly, this time around I don't have as much to talk about in terms of interactions for the members, because I decided I'd rather just speak comfortably and normally with them and thus I don't really remember most of it...ㅎㅎ It was sweet though. I was a lot more relaxed in front of them despite being forced to go first lol. Also, I wrote postcards for all of them that just said "Thank you for everything, I'll always support you!" addressed to each of them and with my name on it (I KEPT FORGETTING TO GIVE THEM TO THEM AND HAD TO KEEP GIVING THEM TO THE STAFF LOL). Back to Taewoong, side note I kind of gestured that I wanted to hold his hand again while he signed my page but I don't think he caught on (dejectedㅜㅜ) After he finished signing mine he linked both our hands and wished me well and that we'd meet again soon.

[Q: Tomorrow I’m leaving Korea... I’m going to miss supporting Snuper here and seeing you every day. Please write something sweet for me with my name in it!]

Suhyun

Suhyun remembered my name too, and again he spoke to me a lot in Korean. He asked me again where I was going back to (Canada), and then asked if that was my home. Honestly we talked more but I seriously don't remember what... We held hands at the end. I definitely was better at remembering to hold their hands this time lol.

[Q: Tomorrow I’m leaving Korea... I’m going to miss supporting Snuper here and seeing you every day. Please write something sweet for me with my name in it!

A: Canada! I'll go there] 

Sangil

Sangil was a lot better today haha... mostly because I wasn't being a chaotic piece of shit this time. When he signed my name (he also remembered... god) he was like "Justin Bieberrr" AGAIN GOD DAMMIT BUDDY but I just let it slide this time. Then when he was writing his answer to my post it he read it outloud: "Justine... I... L-" and he paused for a second cause he couldn't remember how to spell love I think LOL so decided on "Luv" and I was thinking like um wow he’s gonna write "I love you" that’s so sweet of him and then suddenly this guy is like "IT!" AND THEN BREAKS OUT INTO THAT FUCKIGN PSY SONG AND STARTS DANCING AND IN MY HEAD IM LIKE wow I got friendzoned so hard but I was just nice to him and sang a long with him. He's really pure he's just weird lol. When I gave him the post card he really looked at it and said he thought the picture was cute (they were Kakao friends cards). Also this time I really took in his dimples man his smile is one of the cutest things I've ever seen in my life he's so seriously handsome.

[Q: Tomorrow I’m leaving Korea... I’m going to miss supporting Snuper here and seeing you every day. Please write something sweet for me with my name in it!] 

Woosung

Once again looking like a SNACK... was blown away... was greeted by "Justiiiine" (shook again), I really appreciate that he tries so hard with his English pronunciation, the others just say my name the Korean way (IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME I’M JUST SAYING). Once again I honestly don't remember what we talked about, I remember when he found his page I told him that he's really good looking (in Korean) and he said "Thank you!" in English again trying REALLY HARD with his pronunciation. He took some time to write me something for me and then clasped hands with me, said some encouraging stuff, but yennow what I like about him is he doesn't sugar coat things, he has such a genuine image...! Also I snuck comparing hand sizes to him because I was just. Thirsty and uh his hand is so big and manly can I choke! Also at this point it's fair to mention that going first was actually hell because he member you're coming up to next tends to look at you more... so of course the whole time I'm with Woosung I can feel Sangho's eyes on our interaction and I felt so damn exposed for some reason like there he is!!! Can I not think about you for 1 second buddy??

[Q: Tomorrow I’m leaving Korea... I’m going to miss supporting Snuper here and seeing you every day. Please write something sweet for me with my name in it!] 

Sangho

Speaking of the devil himself... Haha once again I really wanna choke ! When I got to him he was like "Ahh Justine ;;;;" in a really soft way and of course he's all beaming smiles and I immediately started blushing like god can I live and he started by signing my page, and again I was too embarrassed to ask him to hold my hand so I kind of just... reached for his left hand and he immediately grabbed it and held it tightly as he signed the page ;;;;;;; It's just so obvious the way he treats people he knows are his fans and are flustered around him, he kept giving my hand little squeezes and he smiled while still looking down when I put my other hand on top of his... I didn't notice before but he has really really nice manly looking hands, he has big hands and long fingers... At that time we didn't talk, honestly I just wanted to stare at him and enjoy the moment as much as I could and take all of him in and suddenly as if it couldn't have gotten any worse he suddenly out of the blue he just looked up at me and smiled and then looked back down at the page and I LEGITIMATELY CHOKED... IT WAS CAUGHT ON VIDEO PEOPLE... HE KNOWS WHAT HE DOES TO PEOPLE.... I was so damn shy... Then I felt kinda bad because the staff was already starting to rush people and I had basically written him a fucking confession letter as a post it so he answered that and then he looked at me and we linked hands and I told him (in Korean) that I was going to miss him and he said he would too (SHUT UP) and he really really wished I'd have a safe trip back and that he knew we'd meet again in the future, and as I got pushed to Sebin he was still holding my hand and telling me to go carefully and was smiling so much and making sad faces and God not to suddenly get FAKE DEEP but... it was such a brief moment but as I had to let him go I really felt this big wave of sadness wash over me and it felt like every emotion I'd ever had in like the past two years had suddenly crashed into me and I nearly teared up but I was like !!! Gotta move on my dude.

[Q: Tomorrow I’m leaving Korea... I’m going to miss supporting Snuper here and seeing you every day. You’re so talented, handsome, and kind. I really want you to be truly happy. I’m going to miss you so much. Please write something sweet for me with my name in it! 

*side note 1 looking back on this, um barf*

A: Justine!! Thank you for the time we spent together. Go home carefully

*side note 2 honestly I’m not 100% sure that’s what he said I’m guessing cause I can barely read his writing*] 

Sebin

An actual Prince... this guy... again, he remembered my name and he was definitely a lot less awkward with me today (a couple people had told me that he's usually shy when he first meets strangers and especially foreigners) and he talked to me a bit more this time, even though I have a video I honestly don’t remember what he was saying to me? He was speaking in Korean though. Also I was fanning myself a lot because I was flustered as hell because he's just so good looking and was smiling so much so he was like "It's so hot isnt it?" (in Korean) but the way he said it wasn’t like... concerned over how overheated I was it almost sounded like he KNEW I was flustered so it was in a sort of sly way? Bye and I was like my dude it's... Just you. We linked hands this time and spent a long time saying bye and just waving at each other as I got my shit together lol and I FORGOT TO GIVE HIM MY POSTCARD so after I gave it to Kaylen to give to him.

[Q: Tomorrow I’m leaving Korea... I’m going to miss supporting Snuper here and seeing you every day. Please write something sweet for me with my name in it!]

My sister and my friend took video of me during the fansign, so here it is! *Please ignore my bitchy face when I turned around during Taewoong, I was checking if my sister was filming LOL*

So after that I went and sat my ass back down and I was fucking crying inside, Kaylen came and gave me her camera which she had used to film me with them, so I watched it because honestly there was 100 people left so might as well. Then since I was in the front I basically became a fansite for the rest of the time, Kaylen's camera is decent quality so I got some really nice cute pictures of the members and some videos as well!!!

After the majority of people had gone I finally caught Sangho's attention while nobody was in front of him, I waved at him and blew a kiss and he... blew me... like 5 in a row alternating between hands and I honestly had no idea what to do so I just smiled at him like okay making me flustered for the 37458th time that day? Buddy. Anyways I really wish I had been filming that because when he did that, suddenly all the fansites started yelling his name and aggressively taking pictures of him and shouting about how cute he was lol.

*Previews NOT MINE! Credit on watermarks*

*Previews NOT MINE! Credit on watermarks* 

Later, he caught me looking at him again and gave me a heart;;

I filmed Kaylen getting her signs and oh my god, Taewoong was like "Where are you from?" and she told him Canada and then she was like "I'm Justine's sister!" and he made the CUTEST FACE and then she pointed to me and he frigging waved at me was like "Justine!?" and buT I FUCKED UP THE VIDEO BECAUSE I PANICKED AND HE BASICALLY WENT OUT OF FRAME but our other friend caught it so that's good haha. She also told Suhyun and Sangho too that she was my sister and I could hear Sangho fucking say my name and I really wanted to choke and die once again.

Anyways, so the fansign finishes and they came out to the front to be weird and play a game and I was just like... damn they're really close as shit and I recorded the whole thing... they played that game where you can't say a certain number and Sangho LOST so his punishment was aegyo. He did a pretty good job honestly but the reaction he got SUCKED LOL AND THE MEMBERS WERE SO AMUSED.

So when they had to leave, I caught Sangho's attention again and he waved and made a really sad face at me and blew me more kisses... (I got that semi on video because once again I lost my shit and it sorta went out of frame) god I love him so much can I say that enough times?

I was really choked up when they all left... I was just thinking about how it's going to be so long until I see them again... I'm going to miss them so much...

Here are some pictures I took! I didn’t put a watermark on them idgaf what ppl do with them

Here’s a compilation video! 

Here’s their entire ending ment + game.

Of fucking course, they get sent on ANOTHER quest. And to do what? Protect a bunch of wizards? If they can do magic, why do they need us them there?

Then again.. They are learning at a school called Pigfarts, right? Yeah, now I can see why they'd want them there. - Alternatively titled 'im so fucking original'.

💎 which one would you rather have more of: intelligence, beauty, kindness, wealth or bravery? why?

bravery definitely. im fairly kind, i have enough brain power (OOOOO AIEOU JOO-) to get by, im fine with how cute i am >;3c, wealth is good but over bravery which im very much lacking in, id rather be brave so i could do so many things id love to do......

🙊 what are you ashamed of?

in a joking manner: my kink for intimidating characters. @ me chill

in a serious matter: probably the fact im awful at trying to cheer people up and i feel awful fornot even trying anymore

🌺 which languages do you know? which do you want to learn?

i know english, im VERY limited in thai/lao/japanese, and i know next to nothing of spanish/german/french but i did take a few notes about them bc i was bored. i wanna learn thai/lao the most so i can connect with my culture more, but japanese would be nice since a lot of stuff i enjoy is japanese and i dont wanna hastle others to translate stuff for me haha

🍀 if you could be any fictional character’s best friend/lover, which fictional character would you be?

KURO KIRYU I LOVE HIM

☁️ talk about your dream universe.

a universe where im energetic, not lazy, and motivated to continue on in life and make the world just a tad bit better. and i live with my friends in a nice house in san diego!!

💜 which acts of kindness are you going to do today?

,,, i really dont know, and thats why im disappointed in myself

🐬 if you could transform into any animal/magical creature, what would you be and why?

demon. theres so many types of demons i dont have to be malicious, plus i could blend in fairly well. theres no rly big downside except ill be frowned upon by other divines

🍄 talk about someone/something you really dislike

someone: you hurt my boyfriend you take away his fp you pretty much fuck him over and you proceed to have gross/abusive kinks shut the fuck up ugly i hate you so much and i never even talked to you i never want to see you mention his url or name ever again youre so awful

something: school fucking sucks and i can bring up a lot of reasons for this. 1: some of the teachers hired are only hired to educate, so personality wise they could be oppressive towards their students. 2: while i do feel like having a core lesson plan is okay, FORCING kids into certain core subjects is bad and they end up not learning because they feel like they HAVE to be their best or else theyll fail, and thats awful. the grading system isnt completely awful, since it shows kids areas that need to be improved, but making it some life changing thing is just...bad...because at that point it goes from “well you need to improve in these areas, so why dont we offer you help so theyll be easier!!” to “GET BETTER AT THIS OR BE FOREVER UNEMPLOYED” and i hate it. i could rant about this.

😣 talk about some things that have been making you depressed/angry/anxious lately

ive just been.....depressed bc of low swing my dude. a big issue would be my entire “i want to do good but i suck” thing, and yesterday i had a really bad dream as stated earlier and it made me extremely anxious for the entire day until i finally talked to my friend about it. theres also the fact i have school but theres no way i can finish it now

🍪 what did you want to be as a kid, and what do you want to be now?

vet, now im like...im unsure... i wanna get into architech/floor planning/house designing and also be sort of like a youtube/internet idol??? if that makes sense......idk

🍰 what are some of your favourite sugary foods?

ice cream is one of the only ones i can tolerate haha- i LOVE mochi ice cream but i cant get them fresh here since theres no east asian centric stores here (only southeast/hispanic fusion stores) so rip... ia lso like cheesecake a fair bit

🍑 what are you obsessed with?

kur/o kiryu. or e/nstars in general i guess

💘 what happens to you when you’re stressed?

my breathing gets a bit faster, my chest starts vaguely aching and i get nauseous

😪 what are you sick of?

THE COLD. ITS S O C O L D. PLEASE HELP.

🙀 are you an adrenaline seeker?

💥 what are some unpopular opinions that you have?

sh/u it/suki is Bad. the y/oi fandom is made up 80% of really bad fuj/oshi who later hopped onto an extremely controversial manhwa. hea/thens wasnt too bad of a song. i still like mi/necraft/happy tr/ee friends. i like rh/ythm games but dont like rh/ythm heaven. mc/a wasnt awful. ut/apri as an anime isnt too bad but definitely doesnt match up to the games quality in both art and story telling. id/olm@st/er is a tad bit over rated. ens/tars should be localized to ENG.
