[breadhalfburnt]

Whumpees who used to be notoriously heavy sleepers, but after their captivity they hardly sleep at all and the smallest sounds jolt them awake.

Caretaker hardly dares to breathe when Whumpee falls asleep around them. They silently threaten anyone within earshot not to make a sound. They protect Whumpee’s rest with a vengeance, because it’s so rare.

i am gonna ramble for a second bc i cannot stop thinking about the gem and scott and their creaking hearts.

creaking hearts are such a cool feature bc in order for them to work, they need the wood. they need the trees and the forest and life. and on return it creates life.

scott has nine of them. gem has one. a veteran and the newcomer. both going after the hearts. the desire and craving for having life and the contentment with what you can have. the safety in people and the danger of a sword. why are there so many parallels with the two of them?

Me going to the bathroom late at night: with catlike tread *floorboard creaks* upon our prey we steal *door slams*

It's always interesting seeing our brain splitting an introject or a brainmade based on older media . It's actually not that rare for it to happen , when it happens I'm always like "Hmm, yes, vintage. We went digging for this one I see." , especially when it's older media that not a lot of people remember or think about nowadays .

Who even remembers Mirai Nikki , that anime wasn't even good , I don't understand . Then again I can't even say anything , I like the anime adaptation of Sword Art Online .

Sometimes sleep won't come at the Roundtable Hold, and then Izar slips out of her room and quietly makes her way through the darkened hallways. She carefully avoids all the floorboards that creak; she has memorized their positions like she would with a pattern of stars. (It probably wouldn't bother anyone if she stepped on those boards, though. But she avoids them regardless.) More often than not, there is still light in the study, the figure in the shadows still guarding the doorway. Sometimes, even the distant sound of the forging hammer still carries across the Hold, and she gets the feeling that some people never rest here. Someone also makes sure that there are always lit candles close to the bookshelves. As if accomodating for those who come here in sleepless nights. Izar never takes one of those books to her room, not those she finds in the night. She merely pays them a visit, running her fingertips over the spines until one catches her attention, then sits and reads, surrounded by shadows silence.

This sounds kinda rude to me, idk why, but is it okay to leave for the stressed guy downstairs?

[whats-in-a-sentence]

The floorboards creak under my feet and move, the wood of the windowsill clicks under my hands, and outside, next to the pathway, even the broken and crumbling trunk of a lime tree is putting out fat brown buds – in a few weeks it will have silky green leaves, just like the broad-sweeping branches of the plane tree that overshadows it.

What if ghosts are Like That because they’re just like Extra Old People?

Like, they’re so old they’ve forgotten everything except their familiar routines in their familiar places and things like poltergeists are just ghosts trying to do the things they used to be able to do but getting confused or frustrated when they can’t. And the ghostly whispers you hear from them are really just them mumbling to themself because they assume no one can hear them because they’re also hard of hearing?

Recently, as in two days ago recent, our main host, Ansem, went dormant. Ansem was a ghost in the innerworld, a lot of the way we present our system online, where we are out as a system, is based on having a ghost as a main host, including our system name. We are still weighing our options, if we will change the "themes" of how we present our system to others, or if we're going to keep things as they are in Ansem's honour, especially since them (and the previous host they were fused with) were the first time we had a main host really go dormant instead of just staying inside after a complete host change.
