Martin SEES Jon for the first time ASMR
The first thing Martin notices is that the high ceiling is open to the night sky, strewn impossibly with a billion stars and the distant, round moon. It steals his attention as surely as anything, and his stomach swoops with sudden vertigo as he struggles to understand the impossibility presented to him. After a few seconds of staring, it clicks that it's a painting, an immaculate rendition of the heavens done with a skilled and loving hand.
He tears his eyes from the nightscape and looks at the floor beneath his feet, but feels no better. The floor is polished black marble as smooth as glass, and Martin blinks rapidly, trying to dispel the irrational fear of drowning in it should he step foot into the room. He can see his reflection in it, faint and dishevelled. To distract himself, he casts about the room for something that makes sense. Thereā€™s lamps on the bare rock walls with crystal shades that cast the space in a soft, inviting electric glow, even though electricity should not be running this far underground, varying pieces of furniture, curtains but no windows, and every wall is covered in bookshelves that are packed from top to bottom. Martin inhales, and the faint scent of aged paper and cardamom fills his lungs.Ā 
Is he dreaming now? Did he hit his head somewhere when he was running, was he actually lying concussed in the tunnels? Becauseā€¦this just doesnā€™t seem real. The quiet rasp of a page turning has him jumping almost out of his skin. Heā€™s not alone, but heā€™d entirely missed the thin figure draped comfortably over the chaise lounge in one of the corners.Their long, elegant brown fingers turn the page again, and Martin stares. Heā€™s never seen someone soā€¦pretty and it stalls his thoughts to a grinding halt. So it is a dream, then.
The person has long, curling black hair shot through with what Martinā€™s poet heart can only describe as ā€˜starlightā€™ grey streaks, and the white clothing draped over their form is styled in a way that seems both effortless and also consciously done. They lift a hand to gently brush a twisting lock of hair from their face and the fabric, which Martin is realising might just be a sheet or other loose garment, slips down over their slender shoulder. They seem so engrossed in the book, that Martin doesnā€™t know if he should clear his throat or make an ungraceful exit. He just takes in their face in silence, their high cheekbones, soft looking lips, long lashes, aquiline nose and heavy eyebrows drawn down with concentration. Their eyes are dark brown, almost black, and again, it might be the poet in him, but they bring to his mind ponds of murky water. Peaceful but perilously and deceivingly deep. He watches their irises dance back and forth across the pages and feels some kind of way.
Another page turns, and then the person shifts, lets out a soft breath and Martinā€™s attention is drawn to the soft grey blanket he thought had been laying over them. Then it moves. The wing shakes itself, lifting up off their hip and extending in a stretch, revealing subtle green and blue grey eye spots decorating the feathers, like the most modest of peacocks, and Martinā€™s mind refuses to comprehend what heā€™s seeing. Heā€™s frozen in place as the angel props themself up on the chaise lounge, their hair falling down like ink and silver waterfalls, and he watches them grip the page they were reading and in one smooth motion, tear it free.Ā 
The ripping sound breaks Martin from the spell. He makes some kind of noise, and the figure stills what it is doing, which is placing the small, folded page onto its tongue. They lift their head and stare directly into Martinā€™s eyes, jaw working smoothly, chewing. Martin feels pinned by the intensity of that stare, and his lips part to apologise for intruding, or to demand to know what the hell is going on, to say something, anything, but he canā€™t. The angel swallows, Martin tracking the bob of their throat, and registers dimly that it ate the page. And then, after a moment of staring, a look of confusion and uncertainty crosses the creatureā€™s face, and it speaks, voice soft. ā€œ...Jonah?ā€

Super random Twst hc
A/N: wrote this while coming down from either a sugar high or just that random 3am burst of energy you get type high. Also idk how to explain the weight thing exactly its very comforting for me just to have someone lay on top of you or rly anything heavy like that. Same with the thunderstorm, I grew up absolutely loving them and I still do
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lilia loves true crime. Has a podcast with Cater about it.
Maybe Rook too
Deuce seems like the type of person that if an animal picked them (like just came up to them first or just spent the most time with them, etc) he would burst into tears and become extremely emotionally attached to them
and yes it has happened multiple times with the hedgehogs.
Malleus listens to asmr, like those really sappy relationship roleplay ones. Not just when he's going to sleep but rly any time of the day
same tho.
Leona unknowingly likes it when Cheka is napping with him. I think he's the type to like it when something heavy is on them, it's reassuring in a way, or maybe just grounding. Anyway, Cheka sleeps on his chest when he visits and Leona's taking a nap
same again.
Vil's responsible enough to go to actual therapy after his overblot. He's not ashamed of it one bit, and even lightly pushes for the other overblot-es to go as well, but he stops if they ask him to but still gives them the number(s) of credible and trustworthy therapists.
Riddle and Jamil would probably be the most willing out of them all, Jamil would have most likely already been considering it, while Riddle would do it cause he believes it's what he should do, but neither of them rly likes to talk about it/ about going.
Leona wouldn't want to go/just go for a little while, purely cause it was Vil who was suggesting it. But those two are p similar in that they both are p smart and self-aware, so sooner or later he'll push aside his pride and go. Doesn't care if anyone knows or not.
Azul would have to be dragged to go to therapy, not cause he doesn't think he doesn't need it but cause he's too ashamed and embraced to tell anyone about his overblot.
Idia might have to be dragged kicking and screaming by Ortho to go. (not sure tho, haven't finished book 6).
Fuck if I know about Malleus.
Jack prob names all his cacti. Would rather die then tell anyone bout that tho.
Cater has taught Trey how to make some spicy food.
Kalim is the #1 name remember-er, cause obv he has over 30 siblings. Doesn't mean he won't go threw like 45 other names before he gets to yours tho.
When Floyd was little he tried to eat his own tail, and sometimes still does when he's rrreeeeaaalllyyy board.
Jade gave him the idea. He also has convinced Floyd to eat many other things, like rocks, glass, paper, metal, etc. He could hand him literally almost anything and he'll eat it with little to no question.
Silver has prob woken up cuddling a bear or some crazy shit like that, and just went back to sleep like it's nothing.
Rook seems like he likes to do wood carvings and make his own arrows.
Azul, Ace, Jamil, and Leona all seem like they love thunderstorms
Azul prob used to watch them just below the surface of the water.
Ace and his big brother probably played a lot of different card games when the power went out, so he associates them with good memories.
Jamil and Leona might have both liked the because similar to the weight on the chest thing, it's calming and grounding, and a p comforting. Also might be a way to help relieve stress or smth
same once again.

šŸ‘šŸ‘ i recall you bookbinding at one point in time, what would i need in order to do the very basics?
So I have great news for you: bookbinding is SHOCKINGLY ACCESSIBLE and very very easy to pick up as a hobby! (But it's an unusual enough hobby that everyone around you will just ASSUME you have highly specialized and developed skills, hahaha).
I made my last few bookbinding projects out of stuff I had around the house. But prior to that, I got almost all of my supplies from the dollar store.
You will need:
-Paper (any. Big enough to fold to whatever size you want your book to be)
-Some sort of chip board or cardboard (I like buying dollar store sketchbooks...the backs are this perfect dense-but-thin cardboard, and I tear out the pages for my paper. I basically flip a cheap generic sketchbook into a unique hardcover sketchbook!)
-Acid-Free White Glue (Elmer's makes a good cheap one. Scrapbooking glue is great too. Anything that dries clear and is suitable for archival, meaning it won't degrade the paper over time. Some people even mix their own!)
-Needle and Thread. (Any. Curved needles are easiest, but straight needles work just fine. Use those until you can find the curved variety. Any thread works, but pro-tip: get ahold of some cheap wax --beeswax probably-- and then run the length of your thread along it to smooth the fibers. Do that, and your thread will never tangle, which saves a lot of time. It also helps prevent your paper from tearing!)
-Something to wrap around the cover. (You can get really creative with this. You can use paper or fabric or leather or cardstock or basically anything that you can wrap and glue down to the board of your cover. I've seen people use old jeans: I've seen people use giftwrap. Experiment!)
-Something to puncture the signature holes (the actual tool for this is something called an awl, and I have one at this point, but dollar store push-pins work fabulously if you're just giving it a try)
-Something to fold your signatures (you can use your hands, but it's much easier with a tool called a bone folder. Craft stores sell them. A small ruler made of wood or plastic works very well, too.)
And that's it!
There are a few other things (like book paper for the covers, corner protectors, book tongues, ribbon for attached bookmarks, cheese cloth to strengthen the spine, etc.), but I don't consider those the absolute BASICS needed for a first project. All the things I've listed are cheap, easy to find, or easy to substitute. Try it out before you decide if you wanna invest in the fancier stuff!
Sea Lemon on YouTube makes great, easy to follow tutorials for the actual construction. I also recommend watching a few bookbinding ASMR videos; watching someone apply their skills in a relaxed but steady way is a great way to learn, imo.
If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!

DO IT
Prompt: Christian Marclay 1995
"Tear out this page while listening attentively listen and crumple the page into a small ball you can. Repeat these sounds with other pages save the ball(s) discard the book."
We randomly chose to work with Christian Marclayā€™s instructions and every member in the group contributed ideas for it. I thought it was a good idea to do it in video form because it reminded me of ASMR videos as the assignment was focused on portraying the sounds of the paper breaking and crumpling it. In addition, making a video was convenient as we took advantage of editing clips to be in slow or fast motion which alters the sounds the paper makes. I personally liked it, it was interesting to come up with ways to break the paper to create different sounds.

ASMR video but its of a computer science major doing their entire final project the day its due (aka midnight).
relaxing sounds include:
paper rustling as they try to visually represent their program and fail
minimum 5 breakdowns including silent crying variant, loud crying variant, crying while aggressively typing, rage breakdown, and a breakdown of the creators choice
an angry rant directed at the code about some minor bug (most likely a misspelling or a semicolon)
a breakdown over an imported library not making sense even though it was covered in minimum 5 times already
the choice of music constantly changing as they cannot figure out which of their last-minute study playlists will work best and if they prefer headphones, earbuds, or speaker
failing attempts at study strategies
getting distracted for an hour and a half by a YouTube minidocumentary
constantly verbally questioning what this stack overflow page means
tears of relief when they get it done
tears of anguish as they realized they turned the project in without comments and they cannot take it back because its now 12:01 and if they resubmit it is late
the sound of a 12th cup of instant coffee being made

Decorations:
check on pinterest for diy halloween ideas, they usually have a lot of kid stuff but if you dig around a bit you can find some cool ideas
cheap acrylic black and orange paint can turn ordinary household items or old toys into diy decorations
farmer's markets and plant shops often sell tiny deco pumpkins for very cheap
you can cut out spooky/witchy/occult images from magazines or old books and hang them up or make a collage poster
you can paint anything to make it look more spooky if you have black paint. old books, statues, jars, paper rolls - its easy to make paper mache with craft glue and toilet paper
if you're completely broke and cant buy ANYTHING, you can still use what you have: forage for leaves, acrons, pine cones out in nature, use white rags, marker and some string to make ghosts, draw or trace spooky designs on paper and color it in, dry flowers, use tea bags or coffee grounds to paint, you can even use halloween themed junk mail to cut out the pictures printed on them
Witchy decorations, you dont have to be wiccan or whatever to make an altar just for fun and a lot of witchy diy projects use what people find in nature as well
Costumes:
mandatory jeff the killer costume :3 (no this isnt propaganda i promiise) white hoodie, black pants, a kitchen knife
use your sick ass cloak!! its great for that witchy feel
paint or draw sigils on your arms (i prefer hands especially) or body
sexy vampire
bedsheet ghost
a witch (you can literally look like anything or just look super goth)
a goth
rejected addams family member
zombie (tear up some clothes and you can paint circles under your eyes)
Music:
GOTH MUSIC BABY
The Black Parade Album from MCR
Metal/Funeral metal/doom metal
Aurelio Voltaire
Eliza Rickman
Oingo Boingo
The Paper Chase (Now You Are One Of Us album specifically)
Creature Feature
Get Scared
Hollywood Undead (for that edgy teen feel)
FNAF Music
There are a lot of good Pov: You are in an 80s slasher playlists on youtube and spotify
Insane Clown Posse
Myuuji for spooky piano music
Set It Off
The Dresden Dolls
Nero's Day A Disneyland
Ethel Cain
Avenged Sevenfold
SKYND
GHOSTEMANE
Danny Gonzalez Spooky song series
Rusty Cage
Lemon Demon's Spirit Phone album is a MUST
I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME
Nicole Dollanganger
Kim Petras
Spooky Mood
Creepypasta narrations (MrCreepyPasta is the best but I'm biased, there are other narrators you can check out)
Ambiences (Myuuji has creepy ambiences on his channel, MiracleForest does creepy ASMR ambience videos)
Watch found footage, slenderverse series, ARG videos, lets plays of horror games, the classic movies like Halloween, Friday 13, Elm Street
Play horror games (vgperson has free horror rpg games, itchio also has free games (I love JOHN DOE), plus you can find a lot of game rips or just watch a lets player)
Hot beverages are a must. They dont have to be pumpkin spice, a sprinkle of cinnamon is enough if you like it simple
Goth makeup šŸ–¤
Have a jar or a basket of candy just because
Burn as many candles as you can because lifes too short not to make use of them even if theyre really nice looking
Paint your nails halloween colors
Listen to horror podcasts (Storage Papers, Nine to Midnight, WTNV, Hello From The Hallowoods, NoSleep (featuring our beloved David Ault lol), Shadows at the Door)
Halloween doesnt have to be perfect, you can celebrate it literally any way you want whether thats full blown or simple! Hope this helps šŸ–¤šŸ§”
does anyone have advice for making halloween season fun again. time sensitive question

Reasons I tear my paper:
5. Some art professor told me to at some point
4. That deckled edge it creates
3. I like the sound of paper tearing
2. I can never find my xacto knives
1. It hides when I mess up and my edges are sliiiiiiiiightly crooked.

youā€™re trouble, you know that?
aka the imperium!asher au Iā€™ve been working on for the last few weeks. >:3
part one of three, at least. rating will go up in later chapters.
redacted asmr: imperium!asher/babe. some mature themes (violence)
READ ON AO3
Steal the papers. Save the world. It was that simple. Right?
AKA how a whistleblower falls for the alpha of a wolf pack.
--
part one: trouble
ā€œYouā€™re trouble, you know that?ā€
The first time the wolf - Asher - Ā had said it, the words had been critical. A comment on how theyā€™d found themself in a situation so far over their head, they couldnā€™t see the start of it.
Since then, however, itā€™s become a greeting. Their call sign. Trouble. They donā€™t mind it. Afterall, it wasnā€™t untrue. Theyā€™ve been a lot of things lately, but trouble always seemed to turn up at the top of the list.Ā 
And after everything theyā€™ve been through since joining up with his pack, theyā€™d say heā€™s earned the right to call them out on it. There was a career to be made breaking into Departmental offices, after all; and they were the one with an inside lead.
(Steal the papers. Save the world. As much as they loathe quoting Imperium propaganda, they have to admit - the slogan was catchy.)
Besides, he liked trouble. Liked it enough to keep them around, at least.
Theyā€™re in his - den, for lack of a better word. Itā€™s the place where he sleeps, and holds pack meetings - Asher has an apartment in the city, they've learned, but he doesnā€™t go there. From the whispers of his pack, murmured in undertones that they shouldn't have been able to hear (they havenā€™t figured them out yet as a lip reader), he hasnā€™t been back there in over a year.
Not since the death of his friend. The previous alpha.
(The pack donā€™t talk about him much, especially not when Asher is around, but theyā€™ve heard enough to put the pieces together. To see the shape of him in the hole that was left in the rest of their lives; see the impact his death has had on all of them.)
For their stay here, theyā€™ve been given a room - little more than a cupboard, really. Itā€™s not much, windowless and fitting barely more than a futon - but itā€™s private, and itā€™s a lot more than they had been expecting. And, if theyā€™re being honest, itā€™s better than an interrogation cell, and the pack knows it.
Itā€™s adjacent to Asherā€™s own room, by design, all the better for him to ā€˜keep an eye on themā€™. It was as much for their own protection as for the packā€™s security, theyā€™d learned early on - the wolf named Chrissy had already made a move to turn them into the department.
Turns out that some of the pack did not take as kindly to trouble.Ā 
Asher hadnā€™t taken kindly to the insubordination.
(His hand squeezes tight around the other wolfā€™s neck, Asher had snarled the words into his face. ā€œGo behind my back like that again, and I will tear your fucking throat out.ā€)
After what happened with Chrissy, he doesnā€™t trust them alone with the rest of the pack. Theyā€™ve learned that he doesnā€™t trust much in the way of anything, except for his second.
But they could care less for pack politics. They donā€™t have the time for it.
They donā€™t think they have much time left at all.Ā Ā Ā 
At first, their role is to just provide the intel, the connection. The freelancer - their inside lead - had proven to be just as loyal and trustworthy as theyā€™d hoped theyā€™d be. Someone with a similar drive, a similar goal.Ā 
But thatā€™s not all they can bring to the table. Years of working in Department bureaucracy means that theyā€™re adept with paperwork, especially paperwork connected with the Imperium. And after the first few drops, thereā€™s more than enough of it to work with.
In the end, they come to an agreement. Their assistance, in return for their freedom.
Itā€™s a fair deal.
ā€“
Over the next few weeks, they find themselves spending a lot of time with the pack leader.Ā 
It makes sense. With the sensitivity of the information coming in, and with his pack beta coordinating patrols, thereā€™s no one else he can trust enough with the task. Heā€™s smart, a quick study, and it doesnā€™t take long until he can match them, an impressive feat in and of itself.
And the longer they spend time with him, the more questions they have.Ā 
Asher is an enigma.Ā 
He should be intimidating. Unapproachable. But theyā€™ve spent most of their life learning how to read people, and they just donā€™t see that with him. Itā€™s in the way the members of the pack act around him, the care there. The beta and his mate, especially.
He isnā€™t as hardened as he first appears.
Thereā€™s a softness there. In the curve of his eyes, the curl of his cropped hair, the way he acts with those of the pack he is close too. The touches he canā€™t seem to hold back, despite himself.
And as they get to know him, they canā€™t help noticing other things too.Ā 
Theyā€™d walked in on him in the communal showers in the early hours of the morning.
He has a leanness to him, almost a hunger. A strength that lies just below the surface, evident in every movement. Heā€™s a predator, and heā€™s marked like one, scars littering his skin, his chest, his back.
But the one they canā€™t stop staring at is the one that bisects his chest, from the jut of his collarbone to his hip.
ā€œYouā€™re staring.ā€
Theyā€™re not going to deny it.Ā 
ā€œI was trying to figure out how someone could survive something like that.ā€
The water turns off, and he twists to grab a towel from the rack next to the shower head, running it through his hair once before fixing it around his waist. Then, and only then, does he turn and meet their gaze.Ā 
They donā€™t expect an answer, and theyā€™re surprised when they get one.
ā€œStealth.ā€ His lips twist downwards in a grimace. ā€œIt wasnā€™t pretty.ā€
Now that heā€™s facing them, they can see it fully. Itā€™s a wicked scar, long and jagged, cutting across the lean lines of his torso, its raised edges catching the water that drips from his hair onto his skin.
ā€œIt was a parting gift. Quinn. A lucky hit, just before we ripped the bastard apart.ā€
Quinn. The name is only ever whispered, and not in general company. The vampire that killed his best friend. They can understand the loss. It took them over a decade to get over their own.
He takes a step towards them, and then another. Their grip tightens on their handful of shower supplies - the same brand that the rest of the pack uses, odourless, efficient. His eyes are dark: unreadable, intent.
A shiver passes through them, but itā€™s not an unpleasant one.
His shoulder brushes against theirs as he passes. ā€œYou should wash quickly. The next patrol will be back soon.ā€
They take his advice, scrubbing themselves down in half the time theyā€™d usually spend, before retreating back to the relative safety of their own room.
Then, and only then, do they admit to themselves what theyā€™d just realised.
Theyā€™re attracted to him. The alpha of the wolf pack.
Fuck.

general oikawa headcannons
what's it? general headcannons allergen warning/s? n/a sugar level? 0.9k regulars? @hanayanetworkā€‹ @tahonetā€‹ @tokyometronetworkā€‹
bon appetit!
Tumblr media
ā™§ type to start snowball fights but can never win them. he's so insanely competitive at times, but much like with his matches with shiratorizawa when he was in high school, he can never seem to win them no matter how hard he tried.
ā™§ the type to tell his friends to treat him to some ramen, but when they get to the restaurant that serves the best ramen in town and said friend pulls out their wallet to pay for both of their food, he immediately freezes and tells them they were just joking. he hates it when other people spend money on him. if they do though, he's going to order the cheapest thing on the menu.
ā™§ feels accountable for so much that whenever he's with someone he trusts and his walls are down and he bumps into an inanimate object, just the refrigerator in his house, he'll automatically apologize before the heat rushes up to his cheeks because he just apologized to something that isn't even alive.
ā™§ speaking of oikawa when he's with people he trusts, his mood goes a whole 180Ā°. his fangirls only know the cool and calm oikawa so the seijoh third years often wonder if those girls will like him the same when they found out about dorky adorable oikawa (if those girls stop liking him, they don't deserve him šŸ˜¤šŸ˜¤).
ā™§ he's pretty and he's not the most tough-looking and volleyball's not considered by some to be a "manly" sport so he's a victim of some backhanded comments of that nature. those never phase him though (the only thing that hurts him is his own self-deprecating thoughts and iwaizumi's headbutts but he's almost gotten used to those), he always manages to respond with something about no matter how that person thinks, he'll always get more girls than him (he's not a pig but he will throw that line when necessary lol).
ā™§ when he was younger, his red flag was his competitiveness. he hated it when someone's better than him which of course is not healthy in a relationship, but as he grows older, starts to really understand that other people are going to be better at him at some things, but at the same time, he's better than them are some and that's how life works and it's perfectly okay.
ā™§ lowkey gets inspired by iwaizumi all the time. like, all the time even after they've graduated high school. he'll never say it out loud, and he'll most certainly never say it to the man in question, but iwa probably already knows it. all of seijoh's third years sees the way oikawa looks at his best friend and the way he gets fired up when iwaizumi's fired up too.
ā™§ hums to himself while doing housework all the time. sometimes he's humming a song that's stuck in his head, something it's a completely made up one. no matter what it is, iwaizumi never feels annoyed by this, it even gives him a sense of comfort from the familiarity of it. 10/10 times will pretend to be annoyed with it tho
ā™§ used to be completely obsessed with those 2014 diy/grwm video or youtube channels (who wasn't tho. let's get real here). if he's not watching volleyball, he's secretly watched that. the colorfulness of it just catches his eye and while he didn't know it at the time, it's the asmr of those channels that got him so hooked -- the tearing of the paper, the soapy sounds produced by washing of hair, the sound of writing. it's all got him in a sleepy trance.
ā™§ he likes dancing, especially dances with a partner, but he honestly doesn't feel too comfortable doing that at school because of all of his obsessed fangirls. call him mean, but he doesn't want to do that with someone who's only in it so they can hold his hand. he wants someone who's actually focused at the task at hand, even if they weren't actually good at dancing, he doesn't mind.
ā™§ gets stuck into wikipedia rabbit holes more often than he'd like to admit. he doesn't mean to do it! it's just that one minute, he's watching a volleyball game, the next he's reading through an article about various philippine forklore.
ā™§ he's quite an organized person. uses a planner and all. the only disadvantage he sees with using those is whenever he has an especially busy day and he puts timestamps on each of his chores like 5:00-5:30 - go for a jog, 5:30-6:00 - shower and then, something unexpected comes up and he finds himself panicking because truthfully, he does well under pressure, but when he plans everything down to the wire and all of a sudden his plans go down the drain and has to be replanned? he might as well faint, honestly.
ā™§ has a stamp and postcard collection. he never uses it and honestly, doesn't plan on ever using it, but he just likes looking through them from time to time, thinking about what kind of letters would be nice to write on each.
ā™§ don't tell him this, but he spends an embarrassing amount of time wondering why all of the girls gravitate towards him and not to iwaizumi because have you seen that man?? like yeah, they're just friends, but that doesn't change the fact that his friend's gorgeous and oikawa's not blind.
ā™§ likes to put on clear nail polish to protect his nails. for some reason, after matches, and especially after longer, tougher matches, he noticed that his nails get scratched up a lot and he hated that. he hates how it feels, how it looks, everything. so he started to put some clear protective nail polish to hopefully stop it from getting scraped.

Headcanons I got from your mom
-Willow is an ASMR artist. Her work usually consists of writing or doodling with pencil and paper or reading stories, usually creepy ones or sometimes bedtime stories. Sheā€™s not comfortable with telling her own stories yet however
-After Bonnie and Yolanda escaped they started plotting something with Radley to not only tear down Papa Louie, but also Quinn because she was the one who put the 2 in jail
-Sueā€™s favorite color is pink, and sheā€™s quite girly in a few ways, however, is a bit embarrassed about it.
-Shannon and Simone has hypersensitive hearing which can be good for some cases (Shannonā€™s investigations and Simone for sound-checking) but being around Duke (a naturally loud person) is sometimes rather unbearable
-Duke is loud in every way possible, especially sneezing. He has a VERY distinct dad sneeze and Shannon absolutely HATES it. Like if anyone ever mentions getting flowers as a gift for him, Shannon will look them dead in the eye like ā€œ...no.ā€
-Daniela loves kids and taking care of them. Back then she even helped Skip take care of Mary and James sometimes if he had a tight schedule or if his hands were full.
-In present day, Daniela is Skipā€™s fiancĆ©, and they are awaiting the day they get married.
-If Sue is at Fluffmart and she thinks that her coworkers are eavesdropping on her while she's on a phone call, she will start talking about really bizarre things and saying things that sound super wrong out of context. There are still a few coworkers who think that Sue is a murderer
-If you count everyone who were in the credits of the Mocharia Life production, thereā€™s 43 people (the crew, real people, Romanos, and everyone else) listed, however, originally there were 50 people who worked on the movie in some way. One of them quit, two of them resigned, and, surprisingly, four of them got fired
-Itā€™s revealed later in a podcast interviewing Papa Louie and Petrona how the seven workers werenā€™t part of the production anymore. Most of them either didnā€™t do their job, were extremely rude (especially to upper management), talked back when criticized, and did a lot of other crude things that although didnā€™t exactly get them fired, they were build-ups to the last straw (Also Petrona took the wheel a lot of times just to rant about how absolutely terrible these people were).
-Although no identities were revealed directly, it is hinted that NuMarcus and Gabitha (the rival chefs in Cluckeria) couldā€™ve been the 2 people who resigned. Though they werenā€™t rude or lazy, they apparently didnā€™t like their jobs.
-Itā€™s not known exactly how many, but at least a good half or so of the workers for the Mocharia movie were LGBTQ in some sort of way. Most notably are Sue and Mary (obviously, Sue being lesbian and Mary being bisexual), but a few others were Emmelette and Cameo (trans, Cameo possibly gender fluid), Didar (gay), Duke, (pansexual), Quinn (asexual), Timm (biromantic demisexual), Wendy (aroace), Skyler (lesbian), Brody (bisexual), and a bunch of others we donā€™t know about
-Treble plays the violin and their work consisted of playing in orchestras for theatres and musicals
-Chaseā€™s snake is named Chili
-Yuko is afraid of snakes and usually stays away from Chase because of this, but sheā€™s comfortable as long as he doesnā€™t have his slithery friend around, though they arenā€™t exactly the most well aquatinted
-Chase and Budwin are best friends. Chase is totally the person who usually drags Budwin out, which is funny cause Chase likes to get up bright and early while Budwin prefers to sleep in
-Yuko likes to host ā€œtea partiesā€ for servants and guests, though she doesnā€™t get a lot of guests so itā€™s more of her servants (only if she feels really lonely)
-Itā€™s said that a woman mysteriously died in Roastwell Manor. The last time she was seen was messing around with the elevator. Itā€™s said that she couldā€™ve been play ā€œthe elevator gameā€ before her death. (Iā€™m pretty sure at least someone will see the very obvious reference here)
-There is currently an hour-long documentary in the making called ā€œMocharia uncoveredā€, which in a way itā€™s a ā€œbehind the scenesā€ documentary where they interview the workers and such, but it was also made due to controversies around the documentary (fired workers, Papa Louieā€™s hiring practices, unknown drama, etc.)
