#and i know it’s bc he’s just being difficult rn and it just might never be as tight a bond as with my others

[teabookgremlin]

sometimes i worry i won’t bond with another dog again the way i bonded with king and justice. like i know i will someday with my own personal dogs who are mine and that i’ll have for their whole lives but what if i used up my ability to have a soul dog/heart dog/whatever you want to call it on them

[itsalwaysdark]

and also it doesnt even matter if i miraculously get a job tmrw bc we don't have a car . and im too out of shape to walk anywhere bc everything is far away . so i genuinely dont jnow what to do

[keeps-ache]

i think that's strike three on accidentally rbing to the wrong blog, is anybody counting hfbshfv

[restinslices]

hi! i have an idea 😛

what do you think bi-han would be like with a teenager who has witchy magical abilities (kinda like the scarlet witch or raven)??? maybe they had to train under him for a while bc liu kang was away (and needed a babysitter)

i feel like theyd be more quiet and respectful but, maybe a more anxious?? i honestly don't know how he'd react but, i think it would be kinda fun to write about!!! they probably listen to fleetwood mac and mazzy star and im kinda thinking of a 90s whimsigoth aesthetic

hope this makes sense 😭 i came up w the idea when i was cleaning earlier!!

Ya’ll I started a new job and bitch- I need to become a trophy wife

Ngl, I see him being offended at first

He’s supposed to be fighting threats but Liu Kang got him on babysitting duty? Is he serious?

He wouldn’t even really care about the magical abilities at first. He’s just mad that he’s being reduced to a babysitter. He already feels like his clan is being doomed to mediocrity, so now he’s really offended

But alas, he’s gotta do what he gotta do

Now imma be honest, I feel like he also takes offense to training a non Lin Kuei

He tells Tomas how he’ll never be a Lin Kuei and he told Kung Lao that he and Raiden couldn’t come with on that one mission because they don’t know their ways

So Bi-Han is very very grumpy rn

As we know, it’s very obvious when he’s grumpy

So I don’t see them interacting much. At least not in the beginning

He trains them in very basic stuff because he refuses to give everyone the Lin Kuei secrets

If this character has little to no control over their powers, give this man a rage break every half an hour

“I’m a babysitter and they don’t know how to control their powers?!”

Them being quiet and respectful is for the best

If they were an asshole, he’s telling Liu Kang to come get this damn kid back

Bi-Han doesn’t have witchy abilities, so training them when it comes to that can be a bit difficult

I can see him trying to teach them about control, ya know? Keeping your cool (no pun intended), breathing, not letting your power control you

“If your power controls you, then you’re weak and can’t help anyone. I’ll try to help you not be weak” “How lovely :D”

Dare I say it gives the “grumpy reluctant father x young kid” trope? A Joel and Ellie, if you will? I’m not naming other examples because damn, there’s a lot

Keeping your head straight is the main component when it comes to control, so that’s where he focuses

I still think he’s annoyed by the situation, but he’s glad they follow instructions and are genuinely trying. His anger is more towards Liu Kang. You just notice he’s grumpy because… look at that man’s face

“I just want you to know that I never wanted to bother you. I didn’t ask to be dropped off here” “Okay” “So… don’t be upset with me… please” “Okay” “Are you mad at me?” “No” “Can you say a full sentence?” “Yes” “You sure?”

Honestly as long as they don’t give him any lip, I think they’ll be fine

He only really seems to get upset when he feels someone isn’t minding their place. Just be a hard worker and follow instructions and this can go smoothly

Definitely gets annoyed if shit starts levitating randomly. Put his coffee down

“I don’t care about this kid”

Proceeds to smirk when they’re able to use their magic successfully

Do I see a strong friendship forming? No. I see a mentor x mentee (?) relationship forming, which is still good

Might offer to let them come back to “refine some of their skills”

Just say you’re invested now, Bi-Han

[10001gecs]

congrats on arm!!! also no worries if you don't want to talk about your workout routine but do you have any tips for how to get started working out if you're new to it? i want to feel stronger but feel really overwhelmed and unsure where to start!

ok so actually yes as someone who’s tried to like working out for YEARS I have so many thots basically

1. Get a gym membership. I know you CAN work out at home but personally it’s way harder for me bc im like. Ok I COULD be working out rn or I could just stop and go play some video games. If ur at the gym tho it’s like ok im already here so I might as well

2. Spend like, a month literally just hanging out at the gym. Like I went in without a plan and just did random machines for an hour until I got tired. And this was rly important for me bc it turned working out from like, “something I have to do and it hurts and I have to do a prescribed regimen every time” into just a fun thing I do for as long as I wanna. I like to think of it as enrichment in my hamster enclosure. If you get any visible progress here it’s also a slay because that’s encouragement!

3. ONLY WHEN you’ve done these things get an actual workout program. I tbh just stole one from someone I know who’s buff as fuck. Don’t be afraid to modify it, too. My friend is strong and has been going to the gym forever so he does a bunch of barbell stuff… which is scary to me. So instead I just do machines that work basically the same thing (eg bench press -> machine chest press).

4. Form is basically the most important thing, bc otherwise ur working the wrong muscles. And at least personally as a beginner, when I was getting my form wrong, it was usually bc I was trying to lift too much, my muscles couldn’t manage it, so my form slipped so other muscles could take over. Like, after a while of doing bicep curls, your forearms might start to take over the load. If you take ur thumbs from curling around the bar to sitting underneath it, you can stop that. For every new machine I did for a while I’d put the weight at like, 10 pounds, and just focus on getting the form right. This is also fun bc it feels more like enrichment. Wheee im pulling levers and such!

5. Nutrition. Eat a lot of protein. Like the amount u think u should be eating and then double that. Ppl recommend .7-1 g of protein per pound of body weight (im starting from a higher body fat %, so I can eat closer to the .7 range… which is nice bc otherwise ur eating SO MUCH). Like, again, don’t freak out about it, the most important thing is that ur going at all… but once it becomes something u enjoy, you wanna make sure you’re not doing a bunch of work and then not giving ur muscles the nutrition they need

So basically overall my advice is like, make going to the gym easy and fun before you make it useful. Like, you can do the best workouts of your life but if it sucks, you’re not gonna do it consistently. Once u break the habit, you’ll never pick it back up. If you make it fun first, you want to go… and you can always make it more difficult later. If you ever notice it not being fun, give it a break and figure out how to make it fun.

Also basically nobody is looking at you in the gym ever. Also I specifically got a membership to a gym that has really low membership bc I hate fighting for machines and I hate feeling like ppl are looking at you (they’re not, but I hate the feeling). My planet fitness is 24/7, and for a while I went at like, 11pm bc it was empty.

rec list (last updated: 10/22/23)

aka 'if you liked [cmh] you might also like [insert other really good fic here]' bc there are So Many amazing fics out there good lird

few things. first off if you see a disaster twins bias no you don't. second i tried to find all the authors' tumblrs but there were some i couldn't - if you know any of the ones i missed let me know!

aaand third, there are just. SO many good fics i ended up splitting things up. this is the rec post for multi chapter fics, here's the one shot rec post

Multichapter Fics

Complete

A Twin Thing (@minumi-chan)

Four times Donatello rejects Leo's notion of them being twins, and the once (and future) time he embraces it.

GOD THE TWINS EVER.... funny in parts but also hurts in the best possible way and thankfully has a happy ending to soothe the pain. i literally love them so much

Because We Could Not Stop For Death (@turtleinsoup)

After Leo dies, Donnie builds an android of his twin. After Leo dies, he comes back. He does. And Donnie will not ever let him go again.

very very very very VERY heavy please mind the warnings but god. god. another take on the 'leo dies in the prison dimension' concept that btw WILL make you cry. like a lot. absolutely incredible study of grief. i am never going to be the same person after reading this

coming right on back for you (@taizi)

Rise!Mikey’s portal in the prison dimension takes Leo a little bit farther than he meant for it to. 12!Mikey finds a familiar-looking stranger.

soooo full disclosure i haven't actually watched 2012 tmnt. that said even without that, this fic rules. incredibly soft and heartwarming. i love them

Corrupted Upgrade (@dandylovesturtles)

His brothers think they don't need him anymore? Well, fine. He doesn't need them either. The old Donatello is gone. He'll build a new one. One that will make them regret they ever threw him aside. Building things is what he's good at, after all.

i can't say too much without spoiling the twist, but oh MAN guys it's real good. come get your donnie hurt/comfort juice rn. also for a hurt/comfort fic it has NO RIGHT being so funny so often

Dimensions Apart & Home Again

"Who said I'm hiding?" Leo scoffs. Normally he wouldn't take such a sharp tone, but he's tired and not in the mood for what he feels to be an interrogation in his own bedroom. "You all know where I am. I live here, remember?" “Yeah, very funny. And you know where we live. But nobody's seen you for two weeks.”

ooohhh post movie hurt/comfort my beloved... leo is isolating and donnie kicks his ass. metaphorically. mostly. meanwhile raph and mikey are also having a certified Bad Time but it's okay they all get comfort by the end

Havoc, Thy Name is Donnie

Donnie accidentally turns himself into a child while experimenting with mystic power. It's cute until Donnie gets his hands on his older self's tech and then it's really uncute and Leo and S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N. are having a heart attack.

child donnie is an absolute MENACE and it's INCREDIBLE. terrorizes leo. terrorizes shelldon. terrorizes some random criminals. terrorizes april. terrorizes draxum. all in the course of a single day. 12/10

how to get very good at juggling (@radishhqueen)

The Krang invasion put a couple of things in perspective for April. One of them was how much she wanted her parents to meet the Hamatos. The only difficult part is…getting her parents to meet the Hamatos.

the turtles meet april's parents! it goes... about as well as can be expected. REALLY good april centric post movie fic

little kid with a big death wish (@remedyturtles)

Leo's mind rebelled against the sensation. The heaviness burst into awareness, body, limbs, lungs, blinking. The middle distance he'd apparently been staring in focused. Leo was awake. Leo was aware. Leo was alive. Being alive wasn't something he thought he'd be.

genuinely don't think i could ever recommend this fic enough. mind the warnings as it does get very heavy but. god. idk how to express how much this fic means to me in just a few sentences but like. you'll understand if you read it (also for. an actual summary: post movie recovery fic with a side of extra leo)

Nothing Haunts Us (like the things we don't say)

The boys learn the hard way that truths can hurt. Well, some of them.

truth spellllll you love to see it! lotta post movie angst + some good comfort at the end + bonus the boys actually being emotionally vulnerable and talking about their issues (even if it's not 100% by choice)

Trial and Error (@apatheticrobots)

Leo ends up in the past. This changes some things.

YES the healing (well. eventually).... big fan of the leos' dynamic in this one. also that One Scene (the one with the animatic. if you know you know) gives me goosebumps EVERY time good god

Unfinished business

When one dies leaving something undone, there's a belief, that they do not go gentle into that good night. They linger on until they've finished what they couldn't while alive. And for four turtles, that business is using the Poltergeist movie as inspiration.

bad future ending but make it HILARIOUS. tldr the future turtles haunt the SHIT out of the krang. that's all i'm giving you because that's all you should need. they fucking rick roll them. please

Use Only For Intended Purpose (me!)

That's probably not how mind melds are supposed to work.

sorry for reccing my own fic do you still love me /j BUT FR if you like post movie disaster twins hurt/comfort with a side of dream sharing. i got u

Where in the World is Neon Leon?

Leo practices portalling on his own. This is not a good idea for many, many reasons.

set over the course of the show + the movie! aka leo trying so so hard to be seen as reliable and getting incredibly fucked up over it. also making new friends

write this down on my headstone (it wasn't what i hoped for) (@bottledovercast)

it’s as he drifts listlessly through the cold-as-shit hellscape that leo’s willing to admit, maybe this wasn’t what raph meant. aka: i do not believe for one second that there were No Problems in between getting leo out of the prison dimension and the final scene of the movie.

i genuinely do not know how to do this one justice with words. it's written impeccably and the hurt/comfort is just. chefs kiss. please read it (+ has a sequel now that's also absolutely incredible!)

In progress

At My Worst (@teainthesnow)

Future Leo ends up back in time, stuck in the body of his younger self, who is still conscious but trapped within his mind.

genuinely LOVE this concept like there's a lot of (really good) future leo goes back in time fics but i'm pretty sure this is the only one i've read with them sharing a body? god the dynamic is. SO good. one of my fave future leo + present leo dynamics ever tbh. just. chefs kiss

I May Be Invisible, But I Still Look Good (@dandylovesturtles)

Leo is cursed by a mystic whatever thingy. But don't worry guys, he's totally got this! Getting back into his body? Easy peasy. (He hopes it will be easy peasy.)

will smith poses fellow ghost(ish) leo fic my beloved! ngl this one kinda has a special place in my heart so i May be biased BUT even aside from that it's just. so good. the premise is so interesting and it's written super well and in character and also i would like to give leo a hug PLEASE GOOD GOD

I'm Sorry, Teenage Mutant What Now? (@tangledinink)

When Hamato Yoshi is presented with the chance to return to the surface with his sons and give them a 'normal' life as humans, he takes it. He didn't think that they would forget about that whole turtle thing. But it seems kind of too late to tell them now. Surely they won't find out any other way, right?

human au! ... kind of. actually brooches au but they THINK they're human which is fine until, y'know, it's not. currently in the 'not' part of the fic and it's just going really great for everyone! you love to see it

In Which Donnie and Leo Make Themselves Everyone Else's Problem in an NYC That Isn't Even Their Own

It was a huge mistake on the Kraang's part to kidnap the wrong half of the wrong set of brothers and leave behind two very worried twins. And not just any twins. The disaster twins.

another crossover with 12tmnt which. again i have not seen, but like. this fic is just. REALLY good. it's set pre movie so there's not that trauma, it's literally just the twins fucking the 12 kraang up and living up to their nickname while the 12 turtles (and rise mikey and raph) look on in horror

i think i would prefer the prison dimension (@purplecatghostposts)

Leo gets sent to the Kraang Apocalypse Future that he really didn’t want to think about. Future Leo, Mikey, and Donnie are absolutely baffled by him. Nobody is happy.

you've heard of future leo in the present, now get ready for: present leo in the future! he gets dragged into the apocalypse instead of getting pulled out of the prison dimension back to his brothers and boy he is, understandably, Not Thrilled!

Last Grain of Sand in the Hourglass (@last-hourglass)

The one where the Hamato family is freaking the fuck out, Leo is lost in the Prison Dimension, and a very-time-displaced Leonardo refuses to leave his younger self behind. (Oh, and there may be some mystic hauntings afoot. You know, the usual result of messing with the space-time continuum.)

future leo gets saved while present leo stays in the prison dimension! there's A Lot going on in this one and half of it is BIG spoilers but just. oh my god. this shit is SO well written i am eating it

Mikey's Jam-Packed, Guaranteed to Get Donnie's Memory Back, Friendship Tour!

Donnie wakes up without his memory one day and everyone panics. They're just going to have to jog his memory the old-fashioned way! Through the power of friendship! [And a small (I was wrong. A very large) degree of violence and shenanigans]

donnie gets amnesia and SO SO MANY shenanigans ensue. also a tiny bit of angst but it's fine

Minor Interference (@bambiraptorx)

The turtles accept Draxum's offer to train them. Little does he know that they're only going to use it mess with him.

haha draxum accidental dad moments... well okay not entirely just yet but he's getting there! the turtles are PEAK teenager literally just causing problems on purpose and it's incredible

Mutant Ninja Midlife Crisis (@mutantninjamidlifecrisis)

In the midst of attempting to make peace with his death at the hands of the Krang, Master Leonardo is suddenly yeeted over two decades into the past, courtesy of his little brother.

YEAAHHH another future leo fic! mans gets dropped into the past and IMMEDIATELY kidnapped and brainwashed so things are going great (it's fine he gets better. you know how it is)

odd man out (@threestripeslider)

The one where Future!Leo somehow managed to luck out on a one in a million mere millisecond chance of a freak glitch in the space-time continuum that sends him back into the present, where the Invasion has been successfully driven back. And it looks like it was a one-way ticket travel.

DAD FUTURE LEO MY BELOVED.... he really took one look at these kids and said is anyone else gonna give them a third (3) dad and did not wait for an answer. also big fan of casey's high school adventures LMAO

Power Up

Leo also gets healing hands like his 2k12 counterpart. Sadly, they end up backfiring on him. Who needs to know though?

leo taking 'it's not about me' to the extreme. good god please get this kid some therapy and self worth. the AGONIES

The Lemonade Leak (@turtleinsoup)

The one in which Leo can’t sleep without his swords, because there is a monster in his room, pretending to be Donnie.

oh man. oh MAN. legit one of my fave fics out there. i'm not usually a big thriller person but this one GETS ME + the way the author writes the different perspectives is just. chefs kiss. genuinely has me on the edge of my seat every single update

The Neon Void

Five years. It's been five years. Hamato Leonardo was back. But he was no longer who he once was.

krangified leo! ... sort of. absolutely delicious angst and also i want to rattle leo's brothers. TALK TO EACH OTHER

Three-Sided Coin (@leglessstreetlights)

Highly self-indulgent fic where I put Leo, Future!Leo, and TurtleTot!Leo in the same room until they hug

what the description says! room is a bit of a stretch and present leo is fresh out of the prison dimension So There's That. some really sweet moments in this one though. tiny leo my beloved

this year we lost our dear brother leonardo

The aftermath of the Krang, and of pulling Leo out of the portal. 90% comfort and silly banter.

this is a series not a single wip but i'm saying it counts because i love it a lot. hope this helps <3 yeah what it says on the tin. immediately post movie family hours you love to see it

Times Five

Leo gets struck by a mystic beam that splits him into five parts of himself; literally.

god the TWIST. still losing my mind over it. the whole thing honestly. lotta dealing with leo's complicated emotions about the invasion and himself, really really good tbh

Write Me Well, My Love, Write Me Weird

When stories start popping up on various media outlets of the Turtleman, New York Cities own personal cryptid, most of the world shrugged. To the citizens of New York? fear, excitement, adoration for this odd and lovable creature. Everyone is quick to share stories and memories of their encounters, much to lament of Turtleman's older brother.

leo and donnie get spotted by humans (more than once) and said humans post about it on social media, as humans tend to do. raph is Not Thrilled. angst (and eventual comfort) ensues

[tolerateit]

Is it just me who is weirded out by the posts of “I gave Taylor grace last year in May because yeah she dated a racist but she was ill so it’s okay and I forgive her”. I believe she still thinks she did nothing wrong in that sense which is showing how much she truly hasn’t healed from

there's a lot of nuance to this conversation, and I hold all of these points true rn:

It isn't uncommon for people to get out of a serious relationship and indulge in some kind of impulsive/self destructive behavior and understanding where they come from makes it difficult to cancel said person (fwiw the canceling us a whole different conversation we can have when I'm a little less sleepy)

Taylor wouldn't be granted the same grace your average person would in this turn of events due to her celebrity status

Taylor has repeatedly been associated with problematic people and there's only so many instances you can write off as a mistake/her being unaware

Although it shouldn't be her responsibility to personify the most upright morals all the time, the whole world is watching her and she does have a massive fan base who is highly influenced by her actions

There's literally no excuse for associating with a racist person, let alone doubling down and defending that decision (either bc she misunderstood the criticism as fans trying to control who she dated or if she genuinely just doesn't care about the shit he's says publicly)

The choice to support her as a fan is complicated because the whole situation is a mess, but defending her actions against fans who are upset about valid reasons (mattys comments, That one article, etc.) is a. Questionable choice.

This isn't the first time she has associated with a problematic person. It does say something about her. This also doesn't automatically make her a racist.

She needs to understand that the fans she's responding to in songs like daddy aren't the ones who stalk her outside studios or crash her friends weddings. They were simply upset because of a very public relationship (which, even though she went through it under these circumstances, was still bad as it spoke volumes about who she might be as a person)

We don't know her personally. We never fully will. Still doesn't make it wrong to be upset that someone you care about made such choices. Also doesn't mean you automatically hate them, and wanting someone you've supported all your life to do better and be better shouldn't be such a hot take in the fandom as it is made out to be

bts fic recommendations | 03.14.23

→ hi friends! this is a little segment i do every tuesday (reviewsday get it, aren’t i funny, pls tell me how funny i am) where i read and review two-three fics. as a content creator, i know how big of a role other creators play in your growth, therefore, i want to do my part in making sure everyone gets the recognition they deserve! so with that being said, please check out the amazing fics listed below. make sure to like, reblog, and leave feedback! ♡ #reviewsday #kikirecs

banana clip - @vvh0adie (jhs x jjk x reader | angst, fluff, smut)

summary: nature is great at putting you to sleep. but man-made objects are just as good at waking you up with annoyance. and they’re even better at messing with your senses overall. but nature also made the two most wonderful men who you get to call your boyfriends, and they know just how to comfort you.

for one, let me just say this graphic goes crazy eep!!!

also let me just say, you would write a mean fantasy fic bc the scene setting in the first segment is so good. YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT WORLD BUILDING?? YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT WORLD BUILDING???? YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT MAKING THE SETTING REFLECT THE CHARACTER??? THIS IS IT!!

also i think the representation in the fic is so fucking important like- to have the reader be queer, chubby, and neurodivergent and then depicting in detail the things that come along with it is really great!! especially bc so many young adults read fanfic and thats such a complex time where you're juggling different parts of your identity and how they coexist!! just seriously thank you for writing this!!

"His large hands make haste of grabbing as much of your ass as he possibly can and giving it a good squeeze, oil slick painted nails leaving crescent indentation on your melanated skin. The succulent pain causes a moan to escape your lips. You always knew how to break them down, but he could play too."

oof when i tell u i read this paragraph multiple fucking times bc YOU PICKED OIL SLICK NAIL HOBI I COULD DESTROY MY FUCKING ROOM RN LMAO

“Ah, fuck, it’s times like these when I remember how much of a slut you are.”

dom hobi rattles the fucking peanut in my skull bc i know for a fact that man is the kinkest dom sex freak out here PLS!!! and the mentions of kook throughout made everything incredibly hotter like uGh!! and then i really love when sweet aftercare n cleaning up is added into fanfic after a dommy moment :') <3 overall, this was the hottest shit ever pls fucking read this yall NOW I SAY NOW LMAO!!

paired & pierced - @yoon-kooks (jjk x reader | college au, smut, fluff)

summary: when your professor assigns a collaborative midterm project, you’re paired up with jeon jungkook, the quiet grumpy smartass who keeps to himself and doesn’t fuck with popular kids like you. if you can win him over, he might give you a taste of the tatted and pierced body he’s carefully tucked away beneath those oversized hoodies.

so as soon as i saw that pairing i knew i was a goner!! but babe, this fic made me discover kinks i didn't even know i had like erm?? CAWK TATTOO??? OF A SNAKE???

I HAVE A NEW FETISH LMAO!!! thats like one of the hottest visuals i've ever read in fanfic and it will plague my daydreams from here on out!

where does one find a friend like oc who hooks you up with men like JUNG HOSEOK ?? she is so real for that (one is incredibly lonely despite having friends and never gets checked on by those around her unless they need something which i feel like is so relatable to so many people like i can totally tell why so many readers were drawn to this fic)!! and tim can catch this knuckle sandwich bc FUCK HIM >:(

also the newborn joke made me audibly crack up like the bleak dry humor is fucking hilarious to me-

and i just love their dynamic? like the way you wrote their dialogue is just so natural, which seems simple on the outside but as fic writer i understand that writing believable dialogue is so INSANELY difficult like you literally have to be an a1 writer to nail it as good as you did in this fic!! the talent is screaming!! same goes for the smut!! it was so fucking hot and everything kook said had my coochie wet pls!! i just love the switch for apathetic to complete sex god uGh! i love u n this saur fucking much!!

nature cafe - @virgodolls (jjk x reader | s2l)

oh my goodness i love this so much! like when you told me you were a new writer on here i was already extremely excited, but after reading this, my excitement for your future works has doubled, TRIPLED! you are bringing something new and refreshing to the table! like don't get me wrong i looooveee smut (legit all i write is smut-) but slice of life content is kind of hard to find on this platform! so reading this was such a welcomed change and i loved it wholeheartedly!

you really have a knack for writing in the perspective of the character, which is not an easy thing to do AT ALL! ITS SO DIFFICULT! AND YOU EXECUTED IT SO FLAWLESSY HERE AND ITS ONLY YOUR FIRST FIC? PLS THE TALENT IS UNREAL!!

i also really loved this oc! as someone who is also v sensitive and easily overwhelmed, i didn't find her annoying at all, just incredibly endearing and relatable! THIS JUNGKOOK IS ALSO SUCH BOYFRIEND MATERIAL AND SO SWEET LIKE IM TRYING TO PICK HIM UP TOO UM??? anyways, thank you for sharing your writing! its definitely so scary at first but you did it and you should be v proud of yourself!! i am proud of you!!

[quinnonimp]

whatre ur thoughts on canto 5 (so far) i need to hear it

OKAY SO gathering my thoughts on it is difficult unfortunately since i focus on getting through all the gameplay first, theeen go back to reread the canto to fully focus on whats going on u_u but !!

the intervallo was fun !!!! lowkey wish it was a real beach episode but obviously that would never happen in limbus (made me want to draw a real one though) . the 3 scrapyarders have a fun dynamic w the team & it was as cute as intervallos usually are (i really love intervallos .. & just general side content . i eat that shit up)

as a splatoon fan ofc ill like the sea aesthetic of it all .. rip ishmael she wouldve loved splatoon . plus fish ice cream is a funny idea im glad charon enjoyed it lmao, was nice to know that her & verg hung out in town

fun to hear saude is alive ! im not particularly attached to any of the npcs but im glad she got promoted . the lccb guy w brown curly hair looks like me and i was surprised when he showed up

i found ishmaels behavior & mindset pretty interesting ! to me shes sort of in the middle tier of characters-i-like - but so far this canto has written her in a very effective way, and i appreciate characters that have an extreme sense of determination & care, and her quest for revenge is compelling

yi sang being seasick is terribly relatable it made me like him more LMAO . i enjoy how much more talkative he is rn even if i dont have a deep connection to his character . my feelings on him after canto 4 have definitely improved (he used to be at the bottom tier together w 2 others 💀), & also bc i got his walpurgisnacht ID and im a huge funeral of the dead butterflies fan ..

I HATE RICARDO 😭😭😭😭 yes its a skill issue . but i also dont rly like his character i dont think hes that funny . being stuck on his stage was genuinely frustrating esp with the thought that the final boss of the canto is gonna be even more difficult . sorry . i know a lot of ppl love him and im sure his stage was fun mechanically to someone

the scene where we learn dante has a self destruct button was so much less sad to me than it shouldve been bc when it was explained i got mega distracted thinking abt barbwire (my oc) ..... woops .. still really liked that scene though . dante holds the number one fave spot together w don for me so im always invested when we get focus on them, and this in particular was impactful, especially with faust being clear about their chances of survival in that moment and the indigo elder telling them to "get used to the idea that not everything can be brought back" . themes of permanence & temporariness are super appealing to me and i love extracting that out of dante

when the indigo elder got revealed i was immediately like "oh yeah dons gonna freak tf out with 2 whole color fixers on the same bus" . i was right . she shouldve been allowed to have a way bigger reaction though i mean this is a huge deal .. anywho i like him ! he might be the npc i find most intriguing so far, and im very interested in seeing him & ishmael interact more

so yeah uhmmmmmmm thats what ive got so far while doing a mirror dungeon . im at 5-32 (shoutout to my friends list for getting me past 5-30), so once ive finished the canto i might add onto this post if u wanna hear more or ask specific things !

[smallraindrops-blog]

WMFTD Weed au thoughts

So I never planned on posting this but if you are an American, you likely understand the stress we all under rn. (Especially if you are surrounded by people who... Are not considerate of others to put it politely.)

So here have a silly little au, thought some of y'all might get a laugh of out it.

Warnings: not fully thought out, not beta, just rambling, drugs, adult situations, swearing.

Okay so - get this.

For context-

Patroclus and Achilles got married super young and super broke, like after getting married in a courthouse, they went to a fast food place and ordered off the value menu and ate at a gross, sticky table.

But they didn’t care, Patroclus was tucked against Achilles, their knees pressed together.

Achilles was whispering quietly, telling Patroclus about all the places he would go once Achilles got enough money together.

‘A real honeymoon. I promise. Just you and me.’

It sounded like Achilles was promising the moon and stars to Pat, a fantasy but he smiled and played along.

Then they both went to their very underpaying jobs.

The honeymoon ended up never happening, y/n came into their lives and needed parents.

Patroclus and Achilles stepped up then life just happened and they never got around to it.

But Y/N grew up, became a world-famous boxer champion (along with some sound financial advice and stocks, he is very well off) and Achilles and Patroclus both got better jobs and life was far easier.

And they were still madly, wonderfully in love.

Y/n knew his parents never got a chance to celebrate a honeymoon. As an anniversary gift, he surprised them with a cruise and a three week stay at a country of their choice.

and so they go on their well earned honeymoon and Y/N is left to house sit for them and take care of their three dogs (Pat wanted more but Achilles managed to talk him out of it… for now.)

As a thank you, Pa made his brownies.

I hc Pat is actually a wiz in the kitchen and he had perfected this delicious brownie recipe over the years. Like it might be better than actual drugs.

What y/n didn’t know is that they have a certain neighbor that Patroclus and Achilles totally bonded over how horrible the HOA is, their dogs and how difficult it is to grow plants.

And Hypnos totally offered them some weed at one point, not really thinking they would take him up on it.

But they did ( because they never got to enjoy being a rebel due to working and parenting) and totally became besties.

Pat and Hypnos ended up making weed brownies for them to take on cruise while making normal brownies for their son

(and Pat definitely told Hypnos all about Y/N and Hypnos might have - most definitely- watched a few of Y/N’s matches and got a huge crush)

but due to a misunderstanding on Achilles’ part, he left the weed brownies for Y/N and took the normal brownies with them.

and like Y/N came over after he did his workout and normally he has a meal and protein shake ready to go but he had forgotten both things at his apartment when packing to stay at his parents.

So when he saw the brownies that Pa had made, he greedily said down two of them as he let the dogs out of the backyard.

When he went for a third, he glanced down at the tupperware, he saw a label.

‘The W Brownies.’

He knew immediately but he still called up his parents to be sure.

But there was no cell reception.

So he carefully placed the brownies away and prayed it wouldn’t be bad. ( y/n don’t care about drugs but as part of his training, he rarely drinks let alone anything else, so he has no tolerance whatsoever.)

When Patroclus realized what happened ( he knew his son would eat those brownies the moment he saw them, label be damn), he tried to reach Y/N but got no response. In desperation, Achilles emailed Hypnos.

who amazingly responded and was more than happy to go over.

The back door was unlocked which was lucky but also deeply concerning Hypnos. Bc he had seen enough horror movies to know that it wasn’t a good sign.

The dogs recognized him, whining and going over to the sofa, trying to lead him over.

“Hey are you okay?” Hypnos called out, warily going over. “I’m a friend of your parents. So don’t be scared or anything”

And somehow ended up seeing something that belonged in a goddamn renaissance painting.

y/n was sprawled out, all powerful, heavy muscles with a happy trail that led down to his boxer briefs. His hair was a mess like someone had been running their hands through it. The dark beard he had only highlighted the soft curve of his mouth.

The rest of his clothes were tossed around the room.

hypnos knew he should look away but he couldn’t.

Gods, the man looked like a real life Adonis. He was a little disappointed that y/n still had his underwear on but Hypnos could definitely see the thick outline of his cock.

like what the fuck.

He was also very high, staring at Hypnos with very red eyes. Hypnos gave him a smile, going to him and knelt down next to him.

Y/n continued to stare, his brow furrowed in confusion, lips parted slightly. Hypnos repeated what he said earlier but it didn’t seem to help.

“Oh. You are like super greened out right now.”

Y/n merely blinked at him and there was something so vulnerable about his expression that Hypnos reached out and began petting his hair.

It was surprisingly soft and y/n sighed heavily, like Hypnos’s touch all he wanted.

He pushed his head into Hypnos’ touch. His expressions was sleepy as he stared up at Hypnos with worshipful eyes. One of his hands reached up brushing along his curls.

”Wow- a fairy. A real fairy” He stated quietly. In awe. His voice was a low rumble that went right to Hypnos’s core. “So pretty.”

hypnos gave a laugh and y/n smiled goofily. It shouldn’t have been as attractive as it was but Hypnos liked how it looked on this man.

”I might owe you an apology. I have been giving your very sweet parents weed.” Hypnos confessed.

y/n blinks, his brain slowly processing what hypnos was saying then his expression turned scandalized.

“My parents don't do weed. They are homeowners. They have - have flowerbeds and shit.” He loudly whispered to Hypnos who was just trying not to laugh.

“A fairy gave my parents weed.” Y/n closed his eyes then began to laugh quietly. His smile returned. “What the fuck, man?”

Hypnos couldn’t help it and laughed with him. He was still petting Y/n’s hair but he didn’t seem to mind.

”I am going to get you something to drink, okay?” Hypnos told him and y/n blinked, his smile still lingering.

”You are very pretty. And nice.” Y/n informed him, reaching up to tuck a curl behind Hypnos’ ear, his thumb brushing softly against Hypnos’ cheek “Do you want a boyfriend?”

Hypnos couldn’t believe he was blushing by getting hit on by someone so high they could kiss the moon.

Or that it was kinda working.

”Oh definitely.” Hypnos said, not wanting to upset him. And honestly if Y/n was this sweet when sober, Hypnos probably wouldn’t mind having him around. The hot bod didn’t hurt either. “But let me get that drink first.”

“Old fashion please.”

”you are getting water.”

”okay. you’re so pretty.”

So Hypnos sent a quick email back to Achilles and told him he was taking care of it. their son was fine, just really really really high and to relax and enjoy their vacation. Got Y/n water and power aid and put on relaxing nature documentaries.

y/n would either stare at the whales or at him in turn, both with the same gentle awe.

His fingers gently brush Hypnos curls’ occasionally. He would try all kinds of pick up lines, beaming like a schoolboy with a big crush when Hypnos laughed. And promising to take him to fancy places hypnos never heard of.

“Do fairies like Wagyu beef? Or sushi?”

”This one does.”

Eventually Y/N passed out and Hypnos tossed a blanket over him, and tried to stay awake, sending another email to y/n’s parents to update them and taking care of the doggos, but ended up falling asleep in the armchair across from Y/N.

and…

Y/N wakes up feeling like roadkill. He needed to piss, maybe puke and his mouth felt dry. His eyes hurt. He wanted to just find a dark hole and never leave.

And there was a dog licking at his fingers, whining softly.

Grumbling he sat up, a hand on his head because it genuinely felt like his head might fall off.

Shit, how much weed have his parents been doing?

Then he saw Hypnos. All curled up in a too big hoodie (although Y/N could have sworn it looked like a cloak last night) and white curls spilling everywhere, pale in the morning light.

He was sleeping heavily, thick white lashes fanned against his cheeks. A sleep mask had slipped down, hanging around his neck.

He was beautiful.

He had thought Hypnos was a dream. He was desperately trying to remember who or where Hypnos came from. He couldn’t remember a single word he might have said last night.

Did… did he hired a hooker? Did he bring a hooker into his parents’ house?

Only Hypnos was fully dressed and Y/N’s body felt far too tense if he did have sex so probably not.

The dogs whined again.

Y/N made himself get up, let the dogs out, went to the bathroom and nearly drowned himself from drinking water from the sink.

When he saw Hypnos, y/n was back to his grumpy, scowling self. He and Hypnos got a little snippy with each other and y/n kicked him out.

then feels absolutely guilty when he finally got on a call with his parents and they told him that they asked Hypnos to help.

To apologize to Hypnos, he goes over to his house with pizza and the rest of the weed brownies. Hypnos accepted, teasing Y/N about everything.

Y/n couldn't remember the last time he got so flustered, hiding his face with a hand in embarrassment as Hypnos laughed.

Hypnos had a very nice laugh.

They became friends of sort after that.

(And there was growing sexual tension between them.)

HOA tried to be a pain in the ass about everything and now Y/N has to deal with that nightmare, and Hypnos step in, way more used to dealing with them and they bond over it.

maybe they didn’t need to stand so close together but they were just having a conversation.

And the dogs love hypnos and Pa had told Y/N it will make the dogs happy to see Hypnos so Y/N would stop by daily.

For the dogs of course.

And Hypnos would open the door dressed only in a big shirt, revealing his long legs or in a thin robe, with the belt loosely tied up.

Y/n didn’t know which one was more tempting.

Or like whenever Y/n was doing yard work, shirtless and in low swung shorts, Hypnos was definitely watching, his nose almost pressed into his window, looking very respectfully.

Unlike all those other housewives who were also peering at him.

and there were several housewives who made it a point to just ‘stop by and check in’, their walks slowing down in front of Y/N’s house and Hypnos was torn between jealousy and wanting to laugh at Y/N’s pained expression whenever he heard his name called out by one of the ladies.

Y/n offered to grill some food for Hypnos one night and Hypnos came over and they ended up flirting like teenagers and the night ended with them heavily making out on the couch, grinding against each other and giving hickies.

it went like that for a few days then Hypnos offered up an edible, promising it won’t be like last time. Y/n eyed it doubtfully but took some.

And they end up having very slow, enjoyable fun in bed. ( y/n is a bit type-A when it comes to his training and won’t do weed often. He would however very much enjoy a giggly and relaxed Hypnos, especially with how responsive he can be)

And they just end talking together for hours, pausing to come together again, before falling asleep together.

By the time y/n’s parents returned, y/n got super high and came back with a weed dealer fairy for a boyfriend.

SHAKING U GENTLY HIII HELLO HII - Your ocs (protags and maybe some side ocs) in a nerfgun war, who is winning and also who is out first given the laws of the game? - Does Max have bio parents that are present in the story?? if you're allowed to talk about that bc i've always been curious and i'm not sure if i've asked before - Blackberry random fact go!! what is her deal she seems hella interesting if you're allowed to say - i'm guessing Bullet is a shoe hater but also i need confirmation. does he ever step on those evil little burrs out in the grass. 2nd to this i dont think i've ever seen him in something that isnt shorts is he one of those guys thats like yeah shorts and crocs combo in the middle of winter - This isn't a question i just need to say that Amy is rlly pretty, girl has fantastic eyeliner - i need to know Grey's taste in music/fav songs if they exist,,, plea,,,, - Can Blue bap things with her ears and also how strong r her ears like is it similar to when dogs smack u with their tails on accident and ur like wofgh wtf this could break my bones or is she just rlly fluffy pspsps

HIII!!! :D!!!

1- HMMMM, that is tricky, cause like Blue would either win or be first out depending on her energy and if she wants to do it KJD;SGJKA otherwise, I think Grey and Bullet may be first out- Grey is a bit too nice and Bullet is clumsy DAKJG then it would prob be Max and the rest of the Boys, Max is too cocky, Logan is also a bit clumsy and a lil too safe, and Tyler, Tyler is just participating he'll be dramatic as hell once he's shot LKAJS;FGAJ who would probably win in that case has to be Amy, she's the most chaotic and energetic one here (she would 100% climb trees or hide on/behind rocks and ambush people) but thats only if Blue doesn't have the energy, if she does, everyones doomed DASJG

2- Max does indeed have bio parents! As of right now, I currently have no plans for them to show up? That could change however, but he was abandoned by them and thats why he lived on the streets for a bit. Thats also why Max steals a lot and stashes things in random places cause thats what he had to do live. Sometimes tho, being a child, he would steal stuff that caught his eye too; got him caught eventually. But yeayea, his parents abandoned him! So idk if they'd come back, I'd have to ponder on that

3- I'll give you two facts! Her and Lavender are step-sisters! Lavender's dad and Blackberry's mom got together, Blackberry wasn't too fond of Lavender at first? Cause she didn't want a new dad, meanwhile on Lavender's side everything was awkward cause I have it planned rn that Lavender's mom died during childbirth, so Lavender never really knew her mom or had a mom, so having one then was just super awkward! But yeayea Plum is their half-sister! :D Another lil fact more about her deal, is that, she's one of the ones that would tell the Bitch things about Blue, she didn't know what that Bitch was doing so it wasn't entirely intentional? But it still was harmful and not from a great place, so she made Blue's situation worse regardless

4- Oh he's definitely stepped on a couple of burrs before KASDGJ he does the biggest YOWCH and jumps up from them for sure ASDGKJL I think the most Bullet would ever wear is sandals, but he wouldn't wear SHOE shoes for sure, he's used to being barefoot, he might actually wear crocs tho those definitely got his vibes LKAJSDG; but yea he does not like burrs OH YEA YEA the longest pair of pants he has doesn't even reach his ankles I don't think he likes wearing long pants, he'll have to do it in winter though cause he doesn't handle the cold that well, so he'll tolerate it then but the moment, the MOMENT, it gets warmer it is back to shorts LKAJSDG

5- She says thank you <3

I don't think she gets complimented often, at least not from people she likes LKAJS;DGLK

6- OHHH THAT IS DIFFICULT, I don't even know what genre of music I like ADKJG;SJ HMMMMM I mean! In The Fallen, you gotta have that phonograph to listen to music, and those are pricy, its either that or going to places like inns or people at festivals, you get the picture so hmmm Grey DID grow up with the piano, and the kind of music she'd hear would be stuff like this

and sorry to put a WHOLE ost video here but its the only one where I can find these specific tracks but from 3:41:50 to 4:05:30 is more examples

YES ITS AMNESIA OK?? KILL ME. /j LKJ;DGA but this is the kind of stuff Grey heard all the time growing up, just that melancholy piano, so I think Grey would be genuinely comforted if she heard it again, so I guess this kind of stuff!! and I'm pretty sure with that first vid people can guess who's playing this kind of stuff around/to Grey KJA;DGS but sorry I cannot talk about mom As for like modern au? hmmm god I'm not good at knowing genres tbh this is really hard DLKAJSG, definitely not something super loud like metal or hard rock, not pop either, not country.... Folklore??? Would it be Folklore??? I'd imagine she'd listen to First Aid Kit and maybe Monsters and Men?? Ooh this is hard LKJ;DASGLK but I think thats her vibe LKJDASGLK I think she'd like Dirty Paws! or Meet me in the Woods!

7- I think they are very soft and fluffy! However, with enough velocity I'd imagine they might hurt but not BONE breaking hurt just an owie that lasts for like 5 seconds KJSDLAGJ;K but I imagine her ears being more soft rather than being weapons KDLJAG

[sammyluvr]

ur so sweet ilysm🤭

no but i didn’t rlly believe in love that much anyway and im not a big fan of it, like i say “oh id do feral shit to sam winchester and i’d marry him etc” but rlly im js a girl who’s scared of love and that sounds so stupid but yk when u try something thats repeatedly had the same negative outcome for u over and over and u try it again thinking its gonna be different n its not, thats what rn feels like.

but i genuinely am happy for him bc he’s found someone he rlly likes and i hope everything works out for them from like the bottom of my heart, i js have hard times distinguishing friendliness and flirting and it’s a problem bc i end up falling for ppl easily LIKE AUGHHH FEMALE RAGE FR

anyways yeah i js need sam winchester to like move my hair out of my face n shit, he’d so do that while ur sleeping, like if there’s any hair across ur face he’d move it and press like the gentlest kisses known to mankind to ur face n skin and it’s he’s js so sweet and gentle, like i js know he’d make u believe in love and he’s the type of person who’s been waiting to tell u his feelings for years and he’ll wait so many more for u to be ready, like even if ur ready and he’s on his deathbed, he’ll still accept u lovingly until his dying breath and then he can die a happy man

anyways sorry abt the somewhat angsty hc im feeling angsty rn😋🤞

-💽

hey that's so valid.. love scares me too :,) i think it's real for sure but that's part of the reason it's so scary imo. but that's really hard T_T it really can be very difficult to tell flirting apart from being friendly... and sometimes guys will flirt but not mean it and that's super sucky :(

dw babes i get the angst <33 i love it too :,) yeah sam's the type to wait forever but never ever pressure you... and might self sabotage by never telling you how he feels if he doesn't think it's the right time for you. sometimes he's too careful, too afraid of hurting you to do anything outside of watch you from afar with big heart eyes and a heavy heart. he also of course thinks he's protecting you by letting you be. he doesn't want to be the cause of your death or you getting hurt or anything. but he still makes you feel so loved and cared for. he'd do anything for you and even though he doesn't want to hurt you with his proximity, he can't hurt you by denying your love if you express it to him. plus his so in love with you.

ugh i love the super angsty idea of him hiding his feelings for you to protect you but that somehow being the thing that gets you hurt/killed. he can never be happy ig :D that's just the type of thing that would happen to him that would affirm his belief that he can never do anything right hahahahahhaha screaming crying why would i say that

anyways ily babes i hope you're doing okay <333

[crumbleclub]

@lonelyfreddles i know this is bc we see each other's writing but like. Same wavelength rn

Literally just rambling abt this genre of trauma for Mike and Evan below the cut lmao

I've been thinking abt the thing I mentioned at some point where Mike is trying to work himself up to giving Evan a hug when he apologizes (I want to write that out actually but I'm not sure whether to do it via Evan lives or via they're both dead now (specifically bc older Mike is more likely to want to extend the gesture but his best friend/most trusted person is still alive when he dies so like??? Who could he go to??)) which basically forced me to explore further exactly how his touch aversion came about, which is largely just bc of what you tagged. These are more often small events that Michael might individually forget, leaving him confused as to why he responds the way he does in the first place.

I feel like it gets to a point where the ideas are so intertwined that William doesn't even have to physically hurt Mike to get the reaction he wants; the contact works like that on its own, and it's a really fucked up but effective method of control. He can't roughhouse with his friends anymore. A hand on the shoulder makes him freeze completely, but he doesn't remember why. Their final contact would probably be William giving Mike a hug before sending him off to Circus Baby's as a show of power.

It sucks bc no matter how hard he tries and how much he wants to, the response will never completely go away. Some things that are normal for others will always be too much too fast for him. He will be able to hug his brother, someday, but being caught off guard by it would probably still cause enough of a dissociative response to freak the poor kid out. This is especially rough bc I definitely write Evan as starved for touch– and, honestly, Mike is too, which can be really difficult. In particular, Michael is often torn between wanting affection to stop and not wanting it to stop at the same time, and– in a situation where reconnecting happens after they're dead and Evan is still a little kid– that could be really hard to explain to a little brother who just wants a hug.

Hmmmm. This makes me want to work more on the au where they all survive. Could be easier to explore there

[ctrlhope]

Spider Jimin! Omg it's so amazingly written. I hate spiders, but somehow, you made me fall in love with one! It was just so soft and sweet (until the spider side appears, but god, that was hot, hehehe)

Are the hybrid series just one shots or are you going to expand/continue.....I have so many questions! How did she end up in the cabin? Do they stay there, do they have babies/how does that even work? 😳 does she meet all the others. How does a human survive in the reserve. Could his vemon kill her? Does it? So many questions....

WAHHH SHOULD WE MAKE OUT RN??? Thank you so much for reading and enjoying 🥹 He’s just a little slice of sunshine for everyone to enjoy <33 Or.. maybe he’s just waiting patiently as always! We’ll have to see ^^

I’ll try to answer all your questions without giving away any spoilers!! You never know what might happen in the future 🤭 Apologies in advance bc this got long 😭 So far my plans are for them to be one-shots with drabbles whenever they’re requested, but at the same time I do have plans for a sequel to Jimin’s story once I finish the others!! I might write sequels for the other stories too, I’m just not sure yet!! But hopefully <33

Now on to Jimin~ hybrids and humans (in my universes) can have kids! It’s more difficult, especially depending on species, but still possible! And trust me when I tell you— Jimin’s spider genes just scream that he wants a big family. So many cute little spiderlings to teach, have them learn all about the world and how to be a good spider just like Jimin. The human side of Jimin doesn’t care as much— he’s happy with just one kid he can love and care for. Build a nice and happy home with you. Give them all the love the reserve employees raised him with.

He’s going to get pouty either way, unfortunately 😭 it’s just in his nature okay! Especially when you have to explain to him that normally humans can only have one kid at once. It’s common for most hybrid species to have more than one, but it makes no difference. He’s still going to love your kids either way. No matter how many you have, he’s going to be the best spider dad <33

Jimin isn’t exactly sure the effect his venom would be on humans. He knows Yoongis’ (a scorpion) is toxic and could severely harm someone but… there are only rumours about what his can do. Some of his friends say it can act as almost an aphrodisiac, others say that it can act as a sedative, nothing about it being deadly though. Something about spiders not being created with the intent to harm like scorpions were. He doesn’t know! He’ll have to ask around because he really, really wants to bite you. It’s something that itches at the back of his skull, honestly. Constantly nagging him.

Mm, I think that’s all of them I can answer for right now!! Oh, except I can say that the only humans meant to live on the reserve are employees— they have cabins closer to the visitors center that they live in while working! Other humans can visit and camp like other nature reserves in designated locations. Trying to live there would be illegal! So… don’t get caught :D (by humans or hybrids ajdjdj) this will be expanded more in Jungkook’s story dw <33

Bye I’m sorry this response is so long 😭 if you can’t tell I really love world building so it’s difficult to stop me once I start rambling asdkaixjsk please lmk if you have any other questions! About jimin or any of the other hybrids and I’ll try to answer them as best I can <33

[toxictoxicities]

thank you for answering me. It was really cool seeing your response. Also I love the comment about Suns not crying to Pebbs. It's funny. Though I know I'm more of a sunstone shipper-- but again, I got to be the weirdest little fandom person ever and think about how tiny Pebbs is portrayed in the fandom, looming over, or straddling Suns and how they're portrayed in the fandom. I can't just be normal. Also I am still new to fandom, and haven't played the game, so I am still learning lore and stuff. I remember it saying that Pebbles in the beginning was difficult to respect authority, so I liked that angle; because he didn't bow to authority, because he questioned, and challenged Suns, suns felt like he wasn't just some means of worship. but ANYWAY, I KNOW YOU LOVE SIGNAL LIGHTS, AND I DO LOVE How Sig and Suns can be with each other! They are very much on Stable Even Ground. And hearing Suns say they learned from the best (aka Sig). That's so cute! Little gay robots making little cats together. Especially disabled cats (looks at spearmaster and hunter). Anyway, it's so amazing that you replied to my little comment. And again I just--- Suns. Suns is good, and they deserve to be given love and taken care of sometimes. And especially the baking bread. Even if they can't eat it. The idea of Suns baking bread is the cutest thing ever and Suns-- if they had more human hobbies, would absolutely bake.

I'm too lazy to draw a reply so- I might as well also warn with spoilers bc I've played all campaigns, read broadcasts and pearls- the lot- I'm a fucken nerd XDD you can ask @revolvius and he'll tell you I'm god with the Rainworld geoguesser (too bad it's down rn tho :(

Yeah throughout Spearmasters campaign we get a shit ton of broadcasts between Sigs and Suns, Suns coming over to Sigs searching for support and all that jazz. Being defiant and such is mentioned to be a common trait for new iterators, it being referred to as a phase. Pebbles just happens to be quite more driven to be independent not wanting to be told what to do.

This trait is why Pebbles works with Suns in the first place because Suns - in sliverist groups- is the one asking the big questions no one wants to talk about such as "is it truly wrong to break the self destruction taboo" which probably was appealing to Pebbles to follow behind the footsteps of an older iterator who had similar ideals and researching into something Pebbles would want to sink his teeth into to be independent from what every other sliverist was thinking. Hell even his local group dissed on him because once again- sliverist despite wanting to follow SOS still held the taboo higher than actually trying to figure out SOS solution

(EP being Pebbles, Erratic Pulse)

Anyways yeah with this in mind I reckon Pebbles would heavily look up to Suns, worship not being the word I'd use but certainly I don't think Pebbles would go against Suns- he only does when confronted about his mistakes which he admits later on he only did it out of shame.

Sooo I won't lie there is some sort of tone with Suns being held so highly- despite there not being much evidence I would love to see Suns city and see if it is bigger than other iterators ect

can only infer Suns status with what's around him.

I mean there's also this- Pebbles always coming to Suns for guidance but never vise versa. It shows that Suns had a higher status or rep to Pebbles- portrayed as wise when they are only intelligent.

Also in Emergence, they can in fact eat bread ^^ , upgrades people upgrades

[cactusringed]

its t. literally if bdubs wins you will be the first person i think about. if he dies too. im so glad you liveblog your reactions to the episodes because i generally know where youre at to avoid spoiling you. the moment i find out about him winning. i truly think he could.

while having one foot in many worlds isnt great, bdubs really does have a lot of allies and sort of allies and just people who wouldnt kill him first. the roomies wouldnt kill him first, because he would help them if need be because of his thing with etho. hes too useful. pearl and joel wouldnt kill him.

also

bdubs has what he has never had before, and that is someone who is as loyal to him as he always is to others. pearl.

look do you want to know what i need from this. i need pearl to die fighting someone off from bdubs. i need her to do that and for him to win. i need someone to be his sword for once. i need her to die for him and for it to lead to his victory.

Brother I'll have to wait till the evening to binge all the episodes too this time imma be suffering esp because it means I can't even check tumblr while I'm bored KSJDKDJD phobic to me specifically

Yeah no I do think he could win... Although he mightve seriously hurt his allyship w pearl last episode, so I'm worried about that, she's not someone you want to anger or get on your bad side. But if he can cling to Joel then he should be okay. Joel's really good at being a red life.

I'm so worried because bdubs has a really difficult task rn, it would be better for him to reroll than spend all session trying to accomplish it, because it's so risky. I'm so worried because of that I rly rly hope for his sake he rerolls, I know it means - 2 hearts but if he gets an easier task he can very easily gain them back

He's also got martyn at his side although I wouldn't necessarily call martyn trustworthy.... I also don't know how much I would trust grian not to hurt bdubs, whilst cletho I think is pretty safe to assume won't lay a finger on him

As for gem and the scotts.... It's rrally hard to tell. Scott is always a force to reckon with in those series because he's such a try hard AJDKSJDD, and then both impulse and gem are very, very very very good at this game, so they are very much to be feared, and they're very tight knit. It wouldn't be surprising if one of them won, but I maintain that it would be more satisfying if someone like bdubs or etho or Joel won. It's not even just bc they're my blorbos I swear LOL they've just had such good arcs this season

I also don't know if scar would be likely to target bdubs.... Bdubs is very likely to target scar in spite of their 'truce'. I don't think scar realises just how angry bdubs still is at him. Thing is, Scar can be pretty deadly, and I thhhhink he's got more hearts than bdubs atm? So a fight against him might not go so well

Bless their hearts I don't think there's much to worry re: the heart foundation, I think they'll be mroe focused on getting revenge on Scar, Bdubs hasn't really antagonised them and they're also, I say this with so so much love, not amazing at pvp or being red lives LOL

Maybe.... Maybe..... I still believe... I believe with worry but I believe....
