okay okay okay imagine
Nagi having a gf who's also good a gaming, but doesn't play as much as he does. He then suggests her to play a MOBA game so they can play together and she agrees because she's good at those
then weeks after that Nagi is hanging out in her apartment and brings up the game to her and she answers "too lazy to rank up because of how toxic the players are" and Nagi was like, aight bet I'll play it for you and rank you up
“𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐦𝐲 𝐛𝐨𝐲𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝 (𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲)”
Tumblr media
a/n: how do you guys have the best plot ideas??? also i had to do some research since i actually don’t play MOBA so let me know if there’s anything you want me to edit 😔
nagi had always known you were good at gaming, but he didn’t expect you to be that good at a MOBA, especially since you didn’t play as much as he did. 
when he first introduced the game to you, you had shrugged, downloaded it, and within minutes were breezing through the tutorial like it was nothing. then the two of you queued for your first real match together. 
nagi played his usual slow-paced yet calculated style, effortlessly farming in the lane while you took a more aggressive approach. the moment the enemy team made the mistake of stepping out of position, you pounced. 
“gank bot,” you called out, fingers moving swiftly across your keyboard. 
“mm.” nagi, playing a jungle role, took the hint and rotated to your lane. as expected, the enemy marksman and support didn’t react in time, and with a well-timed stun from you, he cleaned up the kills effortlessly. 
“nice,” he muttered, blinking as the words “double kill!” flashed across the screen. 
but just as you were about to respond, the chat exploded. 
[enemy mid]: lol jung diff, this nagi guy is so carried[enemy ADC]: cringe gank, imagine needing your boyfriend to help lmao 
you rolled your eyes and started typing. 
[you]: cry about it 
nagi chuckled at your response, but the toxicity didn’t stop. 
by the time the match ended, a decisive win for your team, half the chat was filled with insults, people blaming teammates, and even some directed at you. 
[enemy mid]: ofc a girl would play a busted character, no skill 
[enemy ADC]: go back to playing animal crossing, why are you even here? 
“yeah, this game’s definitely toxic,” you sighed, leaning back in your chair. “i don’t have the patience to rank up when it’s just a cesspool of people like this.” 
nagi hummed in understanding, his gaze lazily drifting to you. “aight, bet. i’ll rank you up.” 
you blinked at him. “you’re gonna grind my account?” 
“yeah.” he stretched his arms, cracking his knuckles. “you’re too good to be stuck in this rank ‘cause of annoying teammates. i’ll fix it.” 
you snorted. “that’s a lot of effort for someone who hates effort.” 
nagi just shrugged. “easier than watching you complain about it.” 
and with that, he got to work. 
𐙚 
at first, it was just one or two matches whenever he had time. you’d go make food, shower, or get distracted with another game, and when you came back, you’d see another win on your match history. 
[MVP - nagi (on your account)] 
he didn’t even bother responding to chat. every time a teammate flamed him, he just played even more flawlessly, shutting them up with his sheer skill. 
it quickly became a routine. nagi would be chilling at your apartment, stretched out on your bed or lounging on your gaming chair, controller in hand or fingers idly tapping at your keyboard. you’d glance over and see him casually dominating the game. 
“why are you playing jungle again?” you asked one night, peering over his shoulder. 
“less stress,” he replied, securing another objective while his teammates bickered in the chat. “can just carry without talking to anyone.” 
it was actually insane watching him work. he made the game look effortless, dismantling enemy teams while your rank climbed steadily. even when the inevitable toxicity crept in…  
[teammate 1]: stop kill stealing, jungle. trash. 
[teammate 2]: report jungle for not helping lane!
he didn’t even react. just another deep sigh, another quiet, “annoying,” before hard-carrying yet another game. 
at one point, you watched him take down three players alone after your teammates abandoned him. the moment he secured the final kill, an enemy typed: 
[enemy ADC]: bro who is this?? smurf??? 
nagi tilted his head slightly, exhaling a soft, “hmm.” 
“i should reply, ‘nah just my girlfriend’s account,’ huh?” he mused. 
you cackled. “do it.” 
he didn’t, but the idea clearly amused him. 
𐙚 
a few weeks later, you sat down at your PC, stretched your fingers, and blinked at your rank. 
“…wait, what?” 
you had been stuck in mid-tier rank before, but now? 
grandmaster. 
you turned in your chair, raising an eyebrow at nagi, who was lying on your bed, scrolling through his phone. “when did you do this?” 
he barely looked up. “dunno. while you were asleep, maybe?” 
you squinted at him, then back at your rank. 
“… damn.” you clicked through your match history. almost every game was a win. “you actually carried me all the way up?” 
“mm.” he yawned. “wasn’t that hard.” 
you stared at him for a long moment before shaking your head with a laugh. “you’re ridiculous.” 
finally, nagi lifted his gaze, his lazy expression softening into something almost smug. “now you don’t have an excuse not to play with me.” 
you smirked, cracking your knuckles. “guess i don’t.” 
and with that, the two of you queued up, this time, at the top.

Pretty privilege is real because if Riz started handing out business cards again it'd be well (or at least less badly) received because he's hot now. This is extremely funny to me. Honestly anything relating to Riz having stumbled ass backwards into being hot (He's not even trying. Fabian is furious slash lighthearted abt that one.) and not really caring about it all is peak comedy. To me.
Like think about it. If you're his age or younger and this Goblin kills someone really well because that's what he does, and he adjusts his tie and pulls a business card out of his vest and he's covered in tattoos (and if it's after combat I guess there's a decent chance he's a little bloody too) and his hair is dishevelled but looks good now and he hands it over casually because he learned how to social interaction at some point and has +9 to persuasion and just goes "Riz Gukgak, private eye." What the fuck. That's not "kid that's gonna get bullied" anymore this is cool now. Only hot people are allowed to do insane shit like give out business cards without being in an appropriate setting. I think it helps that he's actually licensed now lmao but you get the point. Also somewhere here I have to acknowledge that if you're not a small creature it might be less cool. But it probably works on some medium folk still. My point still stands it's like, the vibes aren't cringe failure anymore.
Fig or honestly Gorgug randomly brings this up while they're chilling and then they have to test it out and force Riz to do it several times and he plays along at least for a bit because he loves his friends and Fabian swoons as dramatically as possible and they don't let it rest (and hey that might have honestly flustered him a little bit and The Ball is not supposed to be able to do that. What the fuck happened.) Riz does not understand what the big deal is but apparently the cringey thing he did in middle school is suddenly cool now and he could "get some" (ew) if he wanted (he absolutely does not). He can't decide if his friends are just crazy (not unlikely) (Adaine isn't being weird about it but she's also not saying the others are insane so that's a bad sign. Gorgug isn't being weird about it but he agrees. Oh no.) or if he can never hand out a business card to anyone under the age of twenty again (not that he was planning to I think he had a bit of a career shift. But. Y'know.)
Honestly I think Riz in general had a little trouble after the whole vibe change because now people's perception of him is different, and therefore he has to interact with them differently to get the same reactions. There is a point to which he can't get the same reactions. Like, adults he doesn't know seem to think he's a little less trustworthy now (it's hard not to believe some obvious nerd loser is being earnest. It's harder to believe that the tatted up cool guy has the same attitude) and he has to deliberately proof he's a good boy (mostly). People his age are less inclined to brush him off but also take his bluntness as either a challenge or weird flirting or maybe both when it was just him being blunt and awkward before.
He clocks it after a few times and adjusts, and all it really takes is a slight tone adjustment because it's not like, a huge difference, but it's weird that there's a difference at all. He didn't really think rolling up his sleeves and wearing his tie a little looser and bedazzling himself with rings and bracers would make him seem that much less like a social loser but apparently it does. It helps that he has expertise in persuasion but at first he doesn't realise his "I need to learn how to be palatable" self-training screwed him over in a weird backwards way.
Riz is a weird guy. Social cues are more like, clues to him. That he has to rigorously watch out for and piece together like a puzzle. He can absolutely do it, and he excels at it nowadays, but it didn't come to him naturally and took him. A while. In middle school he definitely didn't get it. What's instinct to others has to be a conscious thought process for him, idk, have i mentioned that he's autistic. I know this, trust. I kinda lost the point idk man.
Being autistic and aroace and falling into some weird niche of attractiveness and also being weird and awkward as shit but "cool now" is hard. Suddenly people approach him in different ways than before and sometimes he doesn't even get it until his friends tell him because it was something completely new and then he has to learn new clues for those specific settings because apparently it's different at a party than at school. All in all weird experience socially. But Riz enjoys puzzles so maybe this can be enrichment or something, who knows.

But a vision of Agie’s imminent death shatters Celia’s world and any restraint holding her back.
With only hours left to save her sister, Celia unchains her every brutal impulse in search of a magic powerful enough to stall death.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MARAMA I LOVE YOU SM ASDFGFDAGJFDASGFA!!!?????!!! I WASNT EXPECTING THIS MUCH OF BIG REBLOG AYOOOOO 🥹🥹🥹🥺🥺🥺🥹🥹🥺🥹🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧✨✨❤️❤️❤️❤️🏵️🏵️🏵️🌹🌹🌹
IM SMILING LIKE A LUNATIC EVEN IN THE CLASS NOW JHVDJHAKSGFAGFDHAGAFDAGS
Bon apetit my love, you can eat as mush as you want🤭🤭❤️❤️
Im in your heart now?🥺🥺🥺 (*Screaming, sobbing, smiling like madman and laughing from happiness and screaming again and acting like gremlin and 🥺🥺🥺🥺*) my hands are shaking from happiness lmao dsdhdsjmdasfghsafcgjsv❤️❤️❤️
Yes, i love reading your mind and the only ref for that muscle thingy was horikoshi's drawing and im really happy with the result hihihhi
I mostly used gel pen' copy (bc i wanted to use the brush without watching add so i copied, if anyone wants to do the same now you know the trick :3) and round brush when i had to paint very very light things and bam! She was done🥳🥳
But since i only used round brush while drawing ochako i was a lil bit hesitant about it was looking but after i saw your reblog, im glad i did it like this❤️❣️
(/////////)
IM GLAD YOU NOTICED!! YES THAT WAS MY INTENTION AGHSDFASHGFAHDJASHISHAHAHAHHAHHIHIHIHHHIHIHI😈😈😈🫠🫠🤭🤭🤭😊😊😇😇😇🥰🥰
I WASNT SURE HOW TO DRAW THE LAND SO I CUT THAT PART AND WASNT SURE IF THAT WAS NOTICEABLE AAAAAAAAAAAA🥺🥺🥺
im losing my mind chat afsdhjafdahgfdahsdfah also i made toga's wing like that bc i wanted to make it noticeable that she cant fly either even if she wasnt rooted to the land🤭🤭🤭
You can be insane about anything as much as you want hehehh <333
Ochako wants to make her fly with herself but thats forbidden, she wants to save her but the cost might be too much hihihihhi
On the other side, himiko is in pain bc of all the things she experienced but after seeing ochako she feels relieved but at the same time, she doesnt want ochako to experience something bad bc of how she wants to save her. She is scared that something bad will happen bc bad things always happens. But even so, she still feels like shes in a dream bc of ochako and wants to confirm if its real or not. Thats why shes reaching for her, if she is real and if she really loves her, she want only one bloody romantic kiss and she will cherish that for the rest of her life. That will be enough for her.
Tbh the background was grayish white and i actually didnt understand if it was transparent or not but then i changed the background color and saw that i didnt even colored their eyes' white part... After that realization i tried to add more details and then decided to make it a lil bit transparent bc it adds something more🤭
to be fuckin honest, i really spent most of the time for her dress and her legs... How did you know-
PINK EYES YES I WANTED TO ADD PINK TO HER EYES WHEN SHES USING HER POWERS🤭
I was really got lazy about doing the background (i actually forgot to do that til the last min💀)
HAHAAHAHAHA IM EVEN MORE GLAD THAT YOU NOTICED THAT TOO, IF YOU LOOK AT IT CAREFULLY YOU CAN SEE HER BROKEN WINGS ARE CUTTING THE LIGHT A LIL BIT EITHER🤭🤭🤭
the fact that you even made an edit for me🥺🥺🥺🥺 im gonna cry-

New crush alert !
Alright alright it’s been a while so I have a new crush.
So we were driving back to my aunts house and she was driving while I was in the passenger seat watching a movie .
She told me “hey look your husband’s are passing by us “
Me being the delulu that I am I said “WHERE WHERE?!” And turned my head to look they were driving behind us and were going to the same route .( there is a running joke with the people I know irl that if we saw a biker that’s my husband, if we saw a car like dodge or mustang ford etc, that’s my employee , a long story for the jokes but that’s for another day )
I got all excited when they passed and waved at two of them ( they were four bikers )
I was like omg omg omg they waved at us and got all giddy and happy cause duh who wouldn’t ( note that I have anxiety but would happily wave at anyone I know or something I like )
Then we continued driving we thought they left but no .
Boy was I wrong
The guy I waved at excitedly waved us down telling us to follow him to the gas station .
I was like “let’s go let’s go we still have time before we go home plus I do need gas in the car “
So we parked to put gas and the guy pulled up next to us .
And let me tell you I screamed internally the bitch was hot . H O T . So I rolled down the window after telling my aunt I will and he said hi .
We spoke for a bit I asked for his age out of curiosity (cause duh ) the bitch is 40 I-
When I tell you I died . I died .
He’s checking the boxes as we speak .
And so we exchanged snaps .
He tried to convince us to go with them for a ride
The other to bikers had extra helmets and a space for backpacks .
Let me tell you I was so tempted to say HELL YES LETS GO .
But due to the time being 2:17 am and I gotta be home so I was like “let’s keep it for another day “
He said “sure why not “ and then his other friend pulled up and I was like GOD DAMN WHY ARE THEY ALL GOOD LOOKING WHAT IS UP WITH MY LUCK?!
So we said hi and chit chatted for a bit before leaving .
There was another older guy(older than him) driving a bike too and I went crazy I turned to my aunt and I was like , what the fuck is HAPPENING?!?!!?
Now hear me out ! I did learn from my last experience and I will be sure to be extra extra extra aware and careful so that I don’t get my heart broken twice . LMAO
But either way guys I’m still blushing what the hell man I should scold myself for being a love sick puppy but I can’t help it ! (ᗒᗣᗕ)՞
I haven’t texted him or anything yet ! I don’t know what I’ll say if I did omfg I suck at this dammit!
Omg what if he wasn’t single and he actually is married !?!
Idk man I’m going insane here I have to look into it first .
I do though wanna take his offer for the ride someday , cause what the hell yolo this shit and out with it .
I don’t know I should probably cover my eyes every time I’m out cause I’m ridiculous

One of my besties literally laughs at me every time she thinks about how fast I became so f obsessed with GD... Like, it took me idk a week? Maybe LESS, I've been here for him after ONE YouTube short from MAMA I saw, but what happened next is totally erased from my memory I've just turned into some feral animal
She's like "WOW you thought you were obsessed with J Hope but look at you the way you were "obsessed" with Hobi is a child game in comparison to THIS obsession with G Dragon"
And I mean... She's not lying
I've already spent x3 amount of money on that bastard then I have on BTS in 2 years........ I bought a f photocard that is as expensive as 3 of my BTS' members' solo albums lmao... The LIGHTSTICK???? BOUGHT. 5 versions of Übermensch?? BOUGHT. 2 more photocards just because? BOUGHT.
Insanely dumb obsessed bitch I am

RAGGHHHH HERE SHE IS!! The only Kyla Barber design I know of :,) (as this momenttt) I’m gonna be making a cool little art piece hopefully tmr using this so look out for that…btw click on the art for better quality cause tumblr KILLSSSSSS image quality omg
Also feel free to use this design in art! This is for everyone cause I legit could not find any others. anyways explanations on design choices are under the cut :3
First, I drag a lot of parallels between her and Jane Prentiss. The way she speaks and the way she’s being corrupted by Liverpool SCREAMS The Corruption and good ol Prentiss. Honestly I could go on and on about how they connect, but I’ll save that for another post. So that’s why she has a skirt and the long hair, it’s a bit of a nod to the worm woman herself!
The skirt itself is blue because when I searched up the landscape of Liverpool I got a lot of water. It gets darker and muddy towards the bottom because of the pollution the Kyla describes. The sweater is green and muddy/dirty for basically the same reason. It’s supposed to be the greenery of Liverpool, and the dirt is the pollution but also the soil of the land.
She’s muddy overall because she’s being possessed by Liverpool or smth (I swear this must sound insane to anyone who doesn’t listen to tmagp).
She also has plants growing out of her and rocks coming out of her skin. Once again a bit of a nod towards Prentiss and The Corruption, but also to show he becoming apart of the land. It takes inspo too to how Colin became apart of the computers it seems. The situations seem similar if you ask me.
The other random injuries (bloody nose, cut on arm, and bandage on face) are references to pollution. It’s harming the land, so it’s harming her.
And it’s mentioned she has type 2 diabetes so that’s why she has an omnipod <3 literally is the only thing of her design that would probably be canon, everything else is really just me having fun lol.
Anyways that’s all :3 I hope the like 10 total other Kyla Barber fans out there enjoy this lmao and hopefully she becomes important!! I think she’s very cool and has so so much potential.

Compiling Metaphor Refantazio humans and their Hieronymus Bosch inspirations
Enemy spoilers up through 7/17 on the in-game calendar
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
far from complete, since I'm nowhere near done with the game yet, but these are all the funny little guys I've managed to find the inspirations for! I've put the enemy's names and the names of the Bosch paintings in the alt text for each image.
I highly recommend checking out Bosch's paintings, for these guys and the many other fantastical and macabre creatures in his works. it's kind of like a game of I-spy, lol
enemies I was NOT able to find a 1-to-1 inspiration for under the cut. if anyone out there HAS spotted a better match for these ones, feel free to add on!
so I couldn't find a good match for the big terrible baby, unfortunately. best I can say is that Bosch tends to paint a lot of creatures that are just a human head on legs.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
same goes for the giant sandworm; I couldn't find anything even remotely similar even after scouring through every Bosch painting (and some sketches!) I could find. it feels inspired by The Garden of Earthly Delights, but I didn't see anything that really resembled this thing.
Tumblr media
but again, if anyone knows of a better match for either of these, I'd love to see it!

i was RIGHT FKCN THERE when it happened so i had to...
The roar of the crowd swells suddenly, voices rising in a chaotic crescendo. Jaws drop, hands shoot up, and a sea of phones fills the air, screens capturing the moment unfolding onstage. But Simon remains lost in the song he wrote twelve years ago, a melody laced with the heartache of a boy longing for something just out of reach.
He doesn’t hear the quiet footsteps approaching. What he does feel is warmth—arms wrapping around his waist, strong and certain, a familiar chest pressing against his back. And for a moment, it's like stepping into a memory. Like home. Like the nights they curled into each other before sleep, seeking comfort in the silence. Like the time Wilhelm had asked if his fish had names, in the golden glow of his childhood room.
Simon exhales sharply, his grip on the microphone tightening. He had told himself he was fine. That the sleepless nights, the endless rehearsals, the way he reached for someone in the dark only to find empty space—none of it hurt as much as it did the first time. But Wille is here, solid and real, and every moment apart crashes into him all at once. The missed calls, the whispered goodnights through a screen, needing someone who always felt just a little too far away.
He melts into the touch. His head tilts back, resting against Wille’s shoulder, and he feels the curve of a smile against his cheek. The urge to press a kiss somewhere—anywhere—burns through him, fierce and overwhelming. It’s been weeks since he’s seen him, held him, breathed him in. And now, with the weight of Wille’s presence anchoring him, it's as if no time has passed at all.
The venue has erupted into deafening screeches—Simon thinks he spots people crying—and he knows, without a doubt, that this moment will flood his social media from every possible angle. Amid the chaos, Simon barely registers the world beyond the warmth against his back.
"Sing, älskling," Wille whispers into his ear. A breathless laugh escapes Simon, his heart pounding so hard it might burst, and he nuzzles their cheeks together.

One thing I think about a lot is that when Nargothrond falls, it is heavily implied that as good as everyone perished or, if not, got captured. Like, unlike with the Fall of Doriath, there is no mention at all of any refugees removing to the Mouth of Sirion - and yet, I assume that is very likely where Celebrimbor, at least, went? I definitely think he would have fought, but clearly he survived and neither Doriath nor Gondolin really were an option for him, and I doubt even more that he would have gone back to his family.
And there are a lot of implications to all that, but maybe the one that keeps me up most is that this means he would have likely been there when the refugees of Doriath arrived, when they told of what his family did. That his father is dead. What would he have been thinking? What would the survivors of Doriath been thinking? Like, I know there were technically several different camps to some extent, but I doubt they would have been wholly separate, especially upon arrival. What kind of horror to find someone who looks just like one of those guys who just slaughtered your friends and family. What kind of horror to look like someone who just committed such horrors.
He also would have been there when the third kinslaying occurred, or at least very close to it. What an experience, to end up on the other side of it. To see exactly what might have become of him had he not foresworn his father years ago, and also to see yet again what became of his family. Like yeah, everything before/during the Nargothrond Disaster would have already been formative for him and his future choices, but I do feel even being in the vicinity of all of that would have been such a dire reinforcement of all those convictions and reasons that made him disavow them in the first place. And especially in terms of the third kinslaying, it's also why I personally really doubt that there is a chance at any kind of reconciliation with any of the brothers, whether it's his father or I don't know, Maedhros or Maglor. Like, I just don't think there is any coming back fromt hat, really, if there ever was.

the first time i really experienced the "oh i am getting old huh" phenomenon, i was 21 & tutoring this lovely little 5th grader living down the street - i was helping with her homework and i noticed her handwriting. i went like "oh, they let you write in script at school now?" "what do you mean?" "well back in my day you would get in big, big trouble if you used anything else than cursive handwriting" "what's a "cursive"?". turns out she wasn't taught cursive at all!
which is wild because, like, not only were we not taught script at all, but teachers acted as though using script was some kind of nefarious deviant behavior. i had this friend in 4th grade who kept getting in HUGE trouble all the time because she wouldnt use cursive at all, like, they called her parents and threatened to have her expelled iirc. this was in the mid 2000's lmao
there was a classist element to it - i noticed that teachers were more likely to assume a student was smart and be more magnanimous in their grading if the student used cursive rather than script (which was considered childish, vulgar, and sometimes girly (derogatory)), used a fountain pen rather than ballpoint, and (sometimes, not always) black ink instead of blue (all other colors were generally banned for graded essays but i got away with using brown ink. i used a calligraphy fountain pen though which helped), though sometimes it was the opposite and black ink was banned with only blue ink allowed (go figure). often teachers would explain these rules to us, proudly even (?). the kind of "girly half-cursive/half-script" with curly letters & tiny hearts dotting the i's was also frowned upon and considered vulgar and a mark of stupidity
i'm glad this is changing at the very least but :( cursive is such a good tool tbh it has so much personality also & nothing is more appropriate for fountain pen use than cursive, so i'm sad this is seemingly disappearing...
