3, 5, 11, 14 for the ask game? :D

ohboy,ohboy,ohboy,ohboy...

Ask Game Here: (Thank you, @pink-november, btw)

Warning: mild (but still existing) Pristine Cut spoilers

3.) Favorite Vessel?

The Razor. She's actually the first vessel I got when I first played the game. (Specifically, M.A.D. I think I would have gotten the Spectre if I hadn't fallen for the "this was too easy" trick.) Regardless, I'm glad I got her first. She's easily the funniest Princess. Her desperate attempts to quell suspicions in chapter 2 is fucking hilarious, especially the "I would like to go outside and see a bird" bit when Hero almost buys into it. Speaking of, it not only introduced Cheated, who in my opinion is one of the most relatable voices, it introduced EVERY voice, so I got a small taste of all of them.

Runner-ups would be Moment of Clarity, Wraith, Thorn, and the newly added Cage.

5.) Favorite Voice?

Skeptic. The beloved...

He definitely stands out from the other voices, by which I mean, he doesn't quite fit with the genre of the story. It's as if you took a 1940's film noir detective and put him in a dark fantasy setting without telling him that he's in a dark fantasy setting. Which (I think) is why he keeps trying to rationally explain his surroundings despite his surroundings clearly not being rational.

He's also kind of a dork. That segment when he "winks" honestly caught me off guard when I first heard it. Had me giggling throughout the rest of the chapter.

Runner-ups include Paranoid, Cheated, Cold, and Broken (especially after the Pristine Cut).

11.) Non-canon Vessel/ Voice interactions?

To be honest, I don't have any specific examples that come to mind. Maybe due to the fact that I'm not fully finished with my Pristine Cut playthrough and don't want to accidentally say something stupid.

That being said, from what I have completed, Smitten seems to be a very underutilized voice. (Yes, I have played the Happily Ever After chapter, so I do know about that... concept.) I mean I understand that his personality is applicable in very specific circumstances (i.e. the Thorn, the Damsel, the Razor). Like, I wouldn't put him with vessels like the Den or the Wraith or such. The Wild would be an interesting one, though. So would the Apotheosis. Hell, put him with the Eye of the Needle so that he and Stubborn can both gawk at the hot Princess. That'd be funny, I think.

14.) Favorite Ships?

oh boy...

To be honest, I'm not one for the shipping scene. At least not sexually. Maybe romantically? Ehh?? If anything, it would be platonic.

But...

The ones I see most are ContraHero, HuntCheat, and (from you, specifically, heh) ParaCold. While all the voices have interesting dynamics with each other, these specific pairings make sense to me personally more than anything else.

Case in point:

Ooh, what's that?! A voice sneak peek?!? eaoooaaag!!!

Personal head canons include:

- Contrarian and Hero constantly flip-flop between the best of friends and an old married couple who bicker a lot (also bushy hair supremacy!!!).

- Hunted is one of the only people who can make Cheated smile. Like a genuine smile, not a smirk. Mostly because he finds Hunted's animalistic behavior amusing.

- On the other side, Hunted is very particular about where he sleeps, only picking locations where he feels the most safe. And his favorite spot is with Cheated's company.

- Cold's general apathy towards everything, specifically staying alive, is greatly concerning to Paranoid, so he resolves to "make him feel". (I know, similar to what Smitten decreed. However, unlike Smitten, who used it as a threat, Paranoid is genuinely invested in what he sees as helping Cold.) Likewise, Cold is probably one of the best voices to easily quell his panic attacks (granted he could also be the cause of them, but still...).

trick or treat! (big fan and love your work 🖤)

A treat for you!!! And thank you c: 🎃🎃

I wish you would write a fic where..

Jamie becomes the captain - I'd love to see him in that kind of leadership role where he has to be responsible for other people (that's why I'd also like to see him become a coach someday) or

Jamie wins some kind of award so I can see Roy and the rest of his family be proud of him :))

In the hours since you have sent this to me, I have devised a fic that somehow combines both of these things -- but in a way that no one but me has ever asked for.

How do we feel about Jamie winning a Webby?

At age thirty-three, Jamie Tartt takes a bad tackle on his right ankle, slamming the door on a career that’s been nothing less than show stopping. He takes the news that he’ll never play again like a champ--which is to say he takes it better than Roy did—and only spends a week sobbing into Roy’s couch cushion that his life is over. On the eighth day, he clomps and crutches his way into the kitchen. He fires up the live feed on whatever app he’s obsessed with now. With three days worth of stubble and bags under his eyes from crying, he announces to the world at large that he’s about to try, ‘Every damn TikTok recipe that I've missed out on because it's been outside of my meal plan for the past twenty-fucking-years.’ And so his new career as ‘obnoxious wastrel who tries to burn down Roy kitchen’ is born.

Trick or treat! 🎃🍬

Thank you so much for stopping by! I see that we share YoI as a fandom, so here's a silly 3-sentence Victuuri (with a surprise trick-or-treater) treat that I whipped up just for you! Happy Halloween 👻🦇

"I'll get it," Yuuri calls out to where Victor is pulling a tray of cookies out of the oven, balancing a bowl of candy with the doorknob before opening it to the very last person he ever expected to see tonight, "—oh, nice costume, Yuri!

"Whatever," he grunts, clearly not happy with the cat ears perched on his head, but shoving his open pillowcase forward anyway, "I dressed up and I'll even say 'trick or treat' too, now give me my candy so I can get out of here."

"Not without a commemorative photo," Victor trills as he makes it to the door, camera already in hand and ready to ambush the others, "don't forget to smile—oh, there he goes—I guess he didn't want the candy after all?"

[just-here-for-the-moment]

YOU KNOW I GOTTA PLAY!! Lol 🥰

Okay, your title is;

The Messenger

“The Messenger” (1993, runtime 38 minutes)

This was Dieter Bravo’s first starring role, and it’s perfectly apropos that the only copies still available in 2024 are on VHS. While there has been a resurgence lately of transferring remastered films to DVD and Blu-ray, I think it’s better that this one stays right where it is. 

Bravo stars as titular character Gabriel Messenger (an overt reference to Christian theology and the angel which brought Mary the joyful news about her impending baby Jesus), which makes it all the more strange that Bravo delivers his lines in a dead-flat monotone laced with his original Boston accent. Gabriel is tasked with riding his messenger bike all over New York City to deliver letters, culminating in a meet-cute when he nearly knocks a girl over with his bike and they instantly fall in love. In the shuffle, the two starry-eyed teens accidentally switch messenger bags, and Bravo has to retrace his steps in an attempt to find both the girl and the bomb he was carrying. 

Just when you’re starting to wonder how many more hours a 38-minute film can last, the preachy film takes a wild left turn into soft porn: Bravo finds the girl, disarms the bomb, and the film ends with an everything-but-the-genitals, soft-focus, 8 minute sex scene set to an extended saxophone version of “I’m Too Sexy” by Right Said Fred. 

Please don’t make me watch this ever again. 🙏 ***

In The Realm Of Giants

How tall are the giants? Are there any smaller giants?

Welcome back @wyked-ao3 !! 🫖✨

I won’t spoil too much of the story, buuuuut.

“How Tall Are The Giants?” Ha…hahaha….heh. Hh—

Giant.

Really fucking big.✨

Imagine the realm scaling to Tav (the giant). So, everything would be “normal” for the giant. For Tyr? He is a tiny. That’s how giant we’re talking 😂✨

Hello! For the ask game: 10, 17, 20 🙂

10. Most disliked arc? Why?

answered here!

17. Instead of XYZ happening, I would have made ABC happen…

kinda going off the answer above, instead of blaine transferring to mckinley at the beginning of s3, i would have had him wait until after sectionals to transfer. for the dramaaaaaa

20. What is the purest ship in the fandom?

i feel like the natural answer is samcedes. they’re very sweet and probably my emotional support heterosexuals <3

[swampstew]

based on your tumblr, I assume you've beat a grown man with your sandal.

then beat him more when you accidentally chipped your nail from the first round.

And he deserved both.

am I being Truman show'd???? I don't remember if it was with a sandal but I have def had to put hands on a motherfucker, and on more than one occasion did my hair get frizzy which snowballed into another rage beating

Make an assumption about me!

One More Ride (Daryl Dixon x Female Reader)

When he pulls away to look at you, his eyebrows are raised in surprise. "Wha's gotten into ya, woman?" He studies your face intently, noting the sly twinkle in your eyes, and the upward twitch of your lips. "Ya want somethin' from me?" he asks finally.

hiii, hiii for the stp ask game

5. (Explore) Who's your favorite Voice?

25. (Explore) What’s a moment in the game that emotionally destroyed you?

eeeeeeeeee

Ask Game Here: (oh hey, it's you!!)

5.) Favorite Voice?

I did answer this one already, but I'm willing to view this as an excuse to talk about the beloved Skeptic again. :)

One thing I forgot to mention is that he can be bitingly cynical, and I think this is off-putting to most people. I don't personally have a problem with this; more often than not, his cynicism gives way to more funny and/or emotional moments. Also, most of my favorite characters in fiction are cynical to an extent.

25.) The moment that emotionally destroyed me?

Uh, this one:

Just this entire scene. This poor, wretched existence she had to go through. Just... man...

And the Narrator. God... He'd never admit it, but He just sounds so remorseful. Like he's.... sorry.

[kitelined]

TWENTY!

Which of your OCs would you most like to meet in person, if they could become real (or you could visit them) for a day? OH BOY ok uhm. I don't think I want to visit any of them because a lot of them live in horrible situations. Off the top of my head, several live in the Warhammer 40k universe, and one lives in a world currently going through a slow-motion apocalypse. One just lives in London during the industrial revolution, which at least is not a hellscape that is basically guaranteed to kill me in under 24 hours, but I still don't think I'd want to go and visit.

I think out of everyone, I'd most like to meet Jonah. Jonah may be a vampire, but he's also just a fun person to be around and talk to, and I think it'd be neat to hang out with him. Hopefully he will not get me into trouble. Much.

Trick or treat! Happy spooky season!

“The win meant they qualified for the FA Cup final.”

It also meant Roy was on the hook for a post-match pizza party, a rare victory that the Greyhound’s treated with the gravitas it warranted.

The Honorable Judge Isaac McAdoo had called forth his best to collect and collate orders since they had a ten pizza limit. Meal plans were consulted, and the great pineapple debate was thrown into a frenzy as those who despised fruit on pizza nevertheless admitted they needed the extra vitamins to meet their daily quotas.

Finally, they sent the Judge McAdoo’s Secretary-in-charge-of-taking-notes-but-that’s-it into the coaches’ office to deliver the final verdict, which Colin handed over gravely.

The verdict said, “I will give you $1000 if you order 10 pineapple ham pizzas and tell everyone else it was a mistake.”

Roy nodded.

trick or treat binch 🥰🍬🎃

Thanks for stopping on by m'dear, I'mma yeet some fun-sized (3-sentence) FloRid candy just for you! Happy Halloween 👻🎃🍬

A series of knocks against the dorm door just as Riddle finishes pulling on his gloves brings a satisfied smile to his face—his boyfriend arriving to pick him up for Diasomnia's Halloween party precisely on time is a surprisingly good sign—but when he opens the door, the sight that greets him wipes that smile right off in favour of a scandalised scowl, "—what are you wearing, Floyd!?"

"Aww," instead of their mutually-agreed-upon (technically by only Riddle's request) matching costumes, Floyd is beaming at him from inside a banana suit of all things, "I knew you'd like it, Goldfishie!"

"You..." with an ever-suffering sigh, Riddle steps onto the Heartslabyul porch and takes Floyd's outstretched hand, squeezing it with an affection that he barely manages to keep from bleeding into his voice as they set off, "...of course I do."
