Ten Under-Recognized Jirai Kei Characters!
Ive been meaning to make a post on some jirai kei characters that i think are underappreciated by the overseas landmine community! Mostly i think its bc they don't wear girly kei, cybercore, or other fashions associated with us on SNS, and bc their media came out before 2020. So ive compiled a list and an explanation for why i think they're jirai! I have another list for pien kei characters who arent jirai in my opinion too. If u have any characters u think the western jirai comm sleeps on, comment/reblog and tell me who & why!
1. Celestia Ludenberg
Celestia (Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc) has screamed landmine to me for like, ever! She's wrapped up in her appearance and at first glance makes the effort to come off as regal and formal. But she frequently lets that disguise slip and shows her sadistic side at the slightest inconvenience, threatening violence and screaming in peoples faces. She's got both a superiority complex AND inferiority complex, and has an unhealthy obsession with gambling, her super high school level talent.
2. Nijimin Anazawa
Nijimin (Mahou Shoujo Site) is super popular in the japanese jirai comm, and its easy to see why. She's easily lovestruck and a borderline yandere (dependent type), murderous and hellbent on revenge, and her magical power literally revolves around manipulating others. She's a beloved idol and a symbol of cuteness, but she's a murderous magical girl? How much more jirai can you get!
3. Mayoi Ayase
Mayoi (Ensemble Stars) is a very interesting character! From his obsession with the occult to his self depreciating behavior to his obsessive and stalkerish tendencies, he's an overall offputting yet charming guy. As an idol, he has fans who have a totally different image of him than the creep (affectionate) he can be at times behind the scenes. Also, not to stereotype, but his favorite sanrio character is kuromi, whos super popular within jirai.
4. Yuri
Yuri (Dokidoki Literature Club) being a landmine seems a little self-explanatory to me. She's a yandere character who's probably the most unassuming of the cast at first. She's shy, smart, kind... and a self-harming yandere with a knife fetish who will literally kill herself if you get involved romantically or reject her.
5. Yoosung
Wow, when's the last time I thought about Mystic Messanger? No idea, but Yoosung feels pretty jirai kei to me in retrospect. In the beginning of the game, hes the adorkable self-conscious junior with an unhealthy online addiction. But, by the end, he's a self-harming yandere who refuses to let the player character go, and is willing to do whatever it takes to secure a happily ever after.
6. Kusokawa-chan
While I have an immeasurable hatred for her creator, Kusokawa-chan (Menhera-chan spin-off 4komas) is a comfort character of mine... for some reason. With a name that means "kawaii trash", her personality is probably predictable. She's human trash, a sadistic asshole with no respect for others who will insult and berate you at the drop of a hat, and turn on a dime on her fans. She tries to cover it up by putting on an exaggerated innocent act and kawaii-fying herself and her life, but she just cant stop herself from exploding on others with no remorse.
7. Azusa Mukami
Admittedly, everything I know about Diabolik Lovers is through its fandom as I've yet to cave and buy the games. But from what little I know, Azusa seems pretty jirai. He seems innocent, fragile even- but has the typical amount of yandere tendencies for the series. He has a self harm addiction, and if you peruse his route you're in for a toxic time.
8. Satou Matsuzaka
This might be cheating because she's so popular on yandere tumblr, but Satou Matsuzaka (Happy Sugar Life) is ultra jirai kei. It's no wonder she's such a popular choice of pfp on japanese jiraitwt! She's obsessed with living out a fantasy saccarine-sweet life with the object of her desire, and given her full-blown yandere nature and her lolicon status, its no doubt shes a toxic partner. She's beloved at her school and workplace for her seemingly sweet nature and cute looks, but her kindness is only for the purposes of manipulation.
9. Kosame Amagai
Again, I'm no expert on Diabolik Lovers! But based on what my friends on yandereblr tell me, this guy is definately a jirai danshi. He's a lover of all things cute, who uses his cute shota-like appearance and polite manner of speech to lure others in. In reality, hes an abusive partner in his route, and takes his anger out on others verbally. He's willing to cry, scream, and threaten over the smallest of transgressions. Of course, he's also a yandere as per series standard.
10. Momonga
Okay so this is only half-serious, but there's a reason Momonga (Chiikawa) is so beloved by jirai girls and often depicted fitting the visual jirai stereotype in fanart. She's ultra cute! But she uses her appearance and acting vulnerable and innocent to try to get away with shithead behavior. She's loud, erratic, and self-obsessed, and often cries when she doesn't get her way. She's obviously the worlds cutest little manipulator, and she knows it.
I hope you enjoyed this list! There's a list for non-landmine pien kei characters coming soon, so feel free to send me asks with recommendations! And feel free to add on to this list in reblogs and comments!

Au game but I’m making you au your fandom into mine — give me a tangled dragon rider au (doesn’t have to Napoleonic wars related bc I’m a nice person)
jaylia this is so funny because literally in the last chapter of multiverse i sent them to a dragon rider world specifically with you in mind omg okay so this is less of a 5 fun facts and more of 1 setting and 4 character sketches ok SO
think typical high fantasy there are Kingdoms and the the Kingdoms have Magic and also some of the Kingdoms have Dragons and and the Dragons have Dragonriders and when a newborn Dragon picks a human to be their Dragonrider they are shipped off to a multination Dragon School Up In The Mountains To Learn How To Do It also worth noting for this world im stealing the eragon thing that dragons can choose their riders from inside the egg so if you touch a dragon egg sometimes that bitch will hatch on the spot for you and oops now you gotta deal with that. so anyways our cast of character in the ya novel i am dubbing the dragon thief:
hugo. the eponymous dragon thief. part of a thieves guild, stole a dragon egg in transport to sell to the highest bidder because that shit is EXPENSIVE if the sale went through he'd be set for life, except oh holy shit what the fuck it fucking HATCHED, and since dragon bonds are considered sacred across all nations (dragons are too Wise to choose random shitheels obviously) he's immediately pardoned of all crimes and shipped off to dragon school with his hatchling, but being pardoned of your crimes doesn't mean your fellow trainees have forgotten them and everyone at the school knows you once tried to kidnap and sell the baby dragon that is now bonded to you for life, and they treat you accordingly
nuru, a young princess who's descended from a long line of both nobility and dragonriders, but always like, yknow. the eldest daughters. the only-kind-of-joking family motto is "first on the throne, second in the saddle" and nuru is the fourth child so the best she could hope for was a decent dowry and a husband who let her keep studying astronomy, but then at her family's hatching ceremony the hatchling stumbled out of its egg and trotted right past all of nurus sisters and into her arms, so now her family is furious even though she really, really, really didn't mean to buck tradition and steal her sister's dragon, and all of her sister's friends who expected her there after the egg hatched are instead stuck with her pesky baby sister instead
yong. tiny baby child whose parents are trainers at the school, and was therefore raised on the property, and was therefore raised as much by dragons as people. is accidentally EXTREMELY magical by virtue of growing up around so much magical energy. his parents keep him the fuck away from any eggs because of that, for fear of him accidentally pulling an unhatched dragon into a bond because of his power instead of the dragon actually wanting to bond with him as a person. yong somehow manages to find, befriend, and bond with a young wild dragon ("young" by dragon standards at least) instead, leaving him half a decade younger than his mostly teenage and young adult classmates, and his dragon close to a century older than their hatchlings
varian. the first dragonrider trainee from his kingdom invited to study at the school. At least, the first in close to 30 years, since his uncle the king and his dragon were both defeated in battle a few years ago after waging war on the rest of the world for a quarter of a century. edmund is gone and his son eugene, varians older cousin, is doing what he can to fix the wreck of his own kingdom, make amends with their neighboring kingdoms, and restart the dragonrider corps in the dark kingdom, since edmund demanded all other dragons and riders be banished a few decades ago. varian never had anything to do with the war, never fought in it and barely knew his uncle or his dragon, but that doesn't stop people from treating him and his dragon like they're also going to go insane and start murdering people any second
soooooo yeah that's all i got band of misfits at magic school sticking together because everyone else hates them so they might as well
#cypresstrees#vat7k#this is not how it went in the multiverse chapter but if I ever wrote it it would be this

OKAY OKAY SO!! do you have any book recs?? i want to get back into reading, it feels like i've mostly been focused on writing these days
i have a bunch but most are fantasy!
the folk of the air trilogy - holly black
enemies to friends-ish to enemies to lovers, mc is a badass and the li is so in love (hes also a menace but mc kinda covers that lmao)
this is a 3 book series with a new series that just dropped that happens after the events of these 3 books
the order is: the cruel prince, the wicked king, the queen of nothing, stolen heir (the new book) but there are also books you can read in between (that i havent read myself)
by far the best book series ive read, i would sell my soul to read it again for the first time
circe - madelline miller
this is a story about circe, a godess (i think) from greek myth. the writing was beautiful, but since its myth, if youre not interested i dont reccomend
(same goes w song of achilles by the same writer)
shadow and bone & six of crows - leigh bardugo
(this one has a two season series on netflix too if youre interested)
shadow and bone - 3 books;
mc is so op honestly, she discovers magical powers early in the book and finds out shes grisha (ppl that have magical powers), but not just any grisha, shes a legend grisha, one of a kind
i dont really remember who she ends up with as its been a while since i read the books but one li is an ass while the other gives golden retriever vibes and i didnt like either of them /lh
six of crows - 2 books;
now listen, i didnt actually read these two books but in the tv show the two series are shown at the same time and i like the characters in this one more
badass gang, thats it. (look more info pls dont trust me)
the kane chronicles - rick riordan
percy jackson is so famous people forget this absolute gem right here.
the idea is the same as percy jackson, except this time its about egyptian gods instead (also techically mc isnt a child of the gods)
it has 3 books, with extra crossover books w pjo (that are also really good once you have the basics)
the midnight library - matt haig
i'm actually not sure what category this falls into.
mc has an accident and ends up at a library at exactly midnight, where the weird librarian tells her that this library is her life (of sorts). basically each book in the library is how her life couldve been like based on some decisions she made
and she keeps going to these other versions of her life by reading the books until she realizes hey, she wants to live, and goes back to her original life
not my favorite, but still an okay one
dune - frank herbert
this is a classic, but it was really good
i dont remember the details, all i really remember was that i had sth for the mc
fr tho its really good, give it a go if long books dont intimidate you
as for books to get into reading again, hmmm
cries okay so dont get mad but the cruel prince got me out of a reading slump
momo - michael ende
this book is so well written istg
mc is a child, first of all. and i dont mean like a teen i mean shes 8 max, shes a literal child but its okay bc there isnt that much action in this one
the main idea of the book is about how precious time is, but its told through such an interesting way. there are time thieves that steal other people's time to live, making it look like theyre helping people save time on mundane things, and momo stops them (not in an insane way i promise)
the secret garden - frances hodgson burnett
this is a classic, but dont let that fool you this is a really well written book
this one has almost no action in it btw
mc is also a child here (shes maybe 12 at most), she moves into the mansion of her uncle after her family dies where she starts to behave like an actual child instead of some spoiled princess/lh
so one day while going on a stroll in the garden area (?) bc no one is there to take care of her now, she finds a secret garden and decides hey since no one seems to care for this garden, this is mine now
also there are other children that she befriends along the way that help her w the garden
def recommend
extra;
anne of green gables (this is so long honestly i ended up just watching the series bc the fact that its 8 books intimidated me at the time - ill get to it eventually)
miss peregrines home for peculiar children (also same as above - i loved the concept tho and ill read it eventually)
percy jackson - a classic
Jayden's Rescue & Old Scroll - vladimir tumanov (these are techincally chrildrens books but theyre also great books so)
#i can give you other recs but theyre turkish and idk if they have eng translations#chitchat#Aly's Friends.[Mika✨]

also 1, 4, 5, 17 for the lupe vera estrella world - if it's fleshed out enough and you want to
So ahead of time this is a collaborative project with me, @lycanthrology and @thebourneultimatum <3 so Im going to be mostly describing my contributions because idk exactly what they were thinking or going for at all times but like I’ll probably reference lore that was their idea as well yk. credit to the people who made this movie <3
1.) how would you describe the world your story takes place in?
It sucks. Well it’s not so bad but it kind of is. It’s like close to modern technology, like some things are slightly futuristic and some are kind of outdated. There’s like a lot of high fantasy elements I guess I should have said that it’s mostly high fantasy first. The focus is on these 3 countries, 2 of which are at war with each other and then the third one joins later. All of them are kind of bleak in their own way lol
region 5: a country with a mostly forgotten but extremely history, the ghost of which still haunts the people to this day. A lot of people particularly the country’s nobility tend to romanticize it, including after the war starts, but the reality on the ground is very different to what the propaganda + genuine opinions of those in power would have you believe (somewhat of a running theme lol). it’s like an eastern european type country with that kinda climate and everything. they used to be more religious in the past but now the population is generally more removed from that kind of thing. in their mythology their god is straight up dead anyway. it’s almost always cloudy overhead so the sun has a lot of significance whenever you do get to see it
straesia: Once (like until like a few months ago) a very powerful and prosperous empire, lots of like cool high fantasy buildings and etc, but due to some internal political sabotage the country is now fucked. they started a war with region 5 thinking they could easily win. they did not easily win and now large parts of the country are being destroyed + overall the patriotism and idealism that used to be very common there is fading. culture overall like somewhat militaristic + etc. aesthetically it’s like very high fantasy but like now crumbling and all it’s very soulsborne. some interesting fun facts are that straesian armor is made to mimic the appearance of various wild animals in its design + some native straesians have sharp incisors
del maia: Supposed to be nice and pleasant and like on the surface it’s very colorful, very sunny, there’s a lot of islands (there’s a mainland and then an archipelago). It’s not like. Tropical it has a Southern European climate. Unfortunately there is also the presence of extreme violence basically out in the open for a variety of reasons it’s like ok. There used to be a monarchy and a royal family and etc but they were losing power in recent years in favor of various merchant families/companies that had an increasing hold over the country’s economy, especially bc they had better international relations and this country relied a lot on trade. So there was a sort of revolution + they got rid of the monarchy and replaced it with this kind of capitalistic oligarchy instead. It is just as bad as before if not worse because a lot of the people are pretty incompetent and also actively sabotaging each other so as to be the only one at the top. It’s like succession but with more colorful outfits
there’s some more details I could mention but that’s already getting pretty long lol :P
I love how it is extremely obvious who made which country. (Didn’t mean to say disproportionately more abt mine it’s just easier to like make shit up yk? Bc I don’t have to worry abt getting the details wrong) I am trying not to be too repetitive with mine like one of the main cities I’ve talked abt in Zeolan in the main ocs cinematic universe is pretty similar to the general aesthetic to this country. Like they have wizards (sort of. maybe I should call them something other than wizards) that work for the government too. The flavor is different on them though ok Im sincerely committed to this project any similarities are mere coincidence ok next question lol
4.) what would you say is the message, if there is one.
I think there are several I guess in the vaguest most general sense it’s like war is bad type stuff. There’s also capitalism is bad. Politicians are fucked and those in power don’t care about normal people. Pretty standard stuff but it’s in there <3 theres definitely some other elements too but I don’t want to speak for everyone else yk like what ideas they were trying to include. I would say those are like the main ones though
5.) pick a theme song for the tv adaptation.
This is so much pressure ok um. Gun to my head Snakes and Martyrs by Tv on the Radio. It has nothing to do with the subject matter whatsoever it’s just the song I happened to be listening to most recently that’s remotely similar to the vibe. I think so far though there are definitely some commonalities with the tone + themes the 3 countries do each have different flavoring so like it’s hard to find a sound that works for all of them yk?
17.) describe the "required reading" to understand your vision. be as pretentious as possible.
game of thrones
werewolf story extended lore. actually all of our ocs extended lore
breaking bad
dark souls bloodborne + elden ring
there’s this one fan fiction of ok I know how that sounds. It’s good ok. it’s about baron zemo yes from mcu movies stay with me. it’s basically completely original because it takes place before the canon timeline so the author is literally just making shit up + since it’s unfinished almost nothing of it has anything to do with canon mcu events at all. it’s like original fiction at that point it’s good though it is
succession probably none of us have seen it
ive been thinking six of crows throughout idk if anyone else is
sundown 2020 B)
every awards bait war is bad movie
there’s some other things for sure but I forgot abt them so that’s it for now :3
#sorry this took a while I literally forgot abt it I thought I had already done it 😔 rip#thanks for asking though it was fun to answer#my ocs#also this is all subject to change etc etc but yes

yooo Idk who the blue dude is but he looks cool, I wanna know more about him
I'm guessing you mean Azul/Chester since I reblogged lot of stuff about him and Diojas last evening lol
Glad you like him, also oooof this is going to be kind of a long story, because he is one of THE og characters of mine, and I'm probably gonna start rambling a lot, so apologies in advance (I'm gonna like...split this into chapters or so to make it easier to follow: its hard for me to talk about Azul and NOT bring up his long history with me lolol)
1. HISTORY (BC being one of the OGS gives you a LOOONG origin)
Azul has kind of a long birth-story as said; his OG og version was a brother I made for my then-mascot character (She no longer exists at all) which is also where the name "Chester" comes from. He had no real personality given initially they were just meant to be my "mascots" I used for my icon and so.
(WARNING; old ass art ahead, I found I still have em lmao, prepare your eyes)
This was drawn like.....2014ish, so 10 years ago, the girl on the left was his sister Breezy. In the end, only Chester ended up continuing along with me overtime, while Breezy was left behind. I don't remember why, maybe I just didn't like her design anymore at the time? (gotta say looking at her now, that outfit's still kinda neat, I could give it to someone....)
Chester went on to get a redesign (and a GF by the courtesy of my friend @mad-hatter-rici, a gal called Gwen at the time) and he became a tattoo artist, a trait I later gave Jurou when I created his modern version.
IDK exactly when these were made, my laptop claims 2018 but that's not possible, given at that point I was on tumblr already, and these are all made pre-tumblr, so between 2011-2017. (Side note, I kinda like some of his old tattoos still....) His personality started to form properly here, and ironically I'd say current version kind of returned to his more relaxed/mischievous nature after being more serious and blunt for a while.
Then at some point, my friend and I decided to create a fantasy AU, where "Azul" was born properly. This was also around the time I joined this hellsite (affectionate), and he got his color-themed name/his current sibling Reuben, and more current look. His personality shifted into more serious, no-nonsense type, the kind that is powered by intensely black coffee and spite. This is also where he got the whole "Dark Mage" deal from, though it was always kind of vague what that meant? (In current version, I've tried to be more specific about what it is)
(There was another look between modern Chess and this Azul design, but I no longer have it sadly, that chibi version has that old outfit)
The left chibi look (Well its full version that I couldn't find) was the one he had for the longest time, because in-between creating it and recent times, I had my massive fandom phase, so I barely drew them at all for years. Once I started coming back to it, I gave him that right outfit, his personality also began to shift back into a more relaxed one.
Finally, we've reached his current incarnation, which still pulls some stuff from his previous look with colors and such (and keeps his BF from the previous incarnation, Diojas). I actually planned to keep his poofy hairstyle initially, but after creating that long, straight hair for disguise purposes, I realized I kinda liked it more? So I kept it instead.
2. CURRENT BLUE BOY
He is a Shadowcaster sorcerer, it is an ancient type of magic that no longer exists; the only reason he has it, is because he and his brother Reuben originate from times long past. They got thrown forward in time as tiny children due to a ritual their bio father, Amaros, performed going wrong somewhat. (Amaros became the Soul Eater Deity and is the origin of all Soul eater's powers) Shadowcaster is the most powerful type of darkness/shadow/night themed magic that has ever existed in his world.
His original name is "Azul" whereas Chester is the name his adoptive parents gave him as he couldn't remember his OG name back then. (Reuben is also a name given to him by their adoptive fam). His adoptive dad is a Chesire cat called Lionel who is a doctor/exorcist, and the adoptive mom is an opera singer songbird called Annabelle. He and Reuben also now have a baby brother called Adam, who is a Chesire like their dad. (Adam is around 17-19, I haven't decided exactly, Reuben and Azul are both mid thirties so there is a big age-gap. There's a story reason for this relating to Annabelle, but I'm trying not to ramble too much and focus on Azul alone lol)
Chester, before he started his origin discovery journey, was a medical student in university in his home world Ether, and he had a bit of a hostile, violent rivalry with Angus Belmont (another fave of mine), which was admittedly mainly caused by the toxic influence from Angus' then-friend Vincent DeVos. Later in life, during Azul's journey, he and Angus become good friends.
Azul/Chester's BF Diojas (used to be a prince in prev incarnation) is the heir of a mob family in the human world, though he is actually not their biological child, but was kidnapped from his birth parents by his adoptive dad. (His bio dad started working for them secretly as a bodyguard as he came looking for his son once he found out Dio is alive)
Diojas has connections in the human world that are useful for Azul's quest, hence he ended up working with the young reluctant mob boss, in exchange for protecting him from more mythical threats he seemed to attract strangely enough....(because his bio parents are from Azul's world and not human)
3. SOME MINOR FUN FACTS ABOUT BLUE BOY
Majority of his friends are women, this has always been a thing for some reason. In fact currently his only actual close male friend would be Angus. (Alexander is a friend too, but he also sees him as sort of an extra parental figure)
He's bisexual
He had a brief relationship with one of his close friends Iris, with both of them agreeing neither wanted that kind of relationship with the other at the time. Iris is still his closest friend, and she becomes an important support figure for Diojas as well.
His mum has a "Azul sass feather" which supposedly pops up when her oldest son is being sassy.
Azul has a familiar called Lasha, a snake demon. He is more unusual familiar as familiars normally aren't beings with human level intelligence for rather obvious reasons, and in fact Azul did not even know initially Lasha had a human form, as the snake hid it from him. (Lasha was asked to look after Azul by his biological father, when he found out he and his baby brother Reuben were alive)
Chester is a wanted criminal in his homeworld for stealing a very important and dangerous magical object, which he needed for his research. That's also why he's hiding out on Earth.
His sorcerer robes are reminescent of his bio dad's outfit, just instead of pure eye-theme, his has peacock feathers due to his adoptive mum's influence. (There are some minor details about it I still am not fully sold on, so it might change a bit later)
I think I'll leave it at that, or this'll get wayyyy too long lmao. The only character I still have in active use that is older than Azul or Diojas would probably be the aforementioned Alexander, his first incarnation was likely made all the way back to...maybe 2012? IDK for sure, but def before Breezy and Chester were a thing.
#answered ask#answered anon#my oc#Azul Samaros#Chester Knight#sorry about the long ramble#Azul is just kinda special for me given my long history with him#so I end up talking a lot when asked about him lmao

RLLY happy that other people have picked up on the fact that each of the tfobh main cast is supposed to feel like they came from a different piece of media
Azrael is your typical horror monster movie
Ollie is like... slice of life anime/wholesome sitcom
Jackie is comic books
Henrik is from a classical "science man tries to play god" story a la frankenstein or jekyll/hyde
and Merrow is... high fantasy
but I think I've managed to write them in a way where they all fit neatly together in one story
#thinkin abt my BLORBOS aster just sent me so many good songs#likeeee. jackie and merrow are from two TOTALLY opposite sides of the spectrum and yet. they r boyfriends#comic book hero dating high fantasy fae??? where else r u gonna get this shit#i mean az and hen kinda go together more than the others bc likeee. science man has gotta have his monster. but STILL#and ollie acts as a good tether for henrik. legit i think if ollie wasnt there we'd get the#alt timeline where henrik totally gives into the power hungry god complex that comes with (kind of) cheating death#and merrows books are what give henrik the ability to do that in the first place#so like !!!! It all fits together#I CANT DRAW BC ITS 2AM and i need to go places tomorrow so i am making up for it by blorboposting#mine#text#tfobh#henrik tag#azrael tag#merrow tag#jackie tag#ollie tag

Playing with Fire
Hope you had a Happy Valentine's Day, @bloody-no-kissu! I stepped in as your @lovebugs-and-snakecharmers secret admirer 😁💖
The prompt I chose to go with was: fantasy, the princess falls for the dragon instead – marinette is a princess and bc of a curse she is locked in a tower with a dragon (luka). while she waits for the destined knight to save her from her curse she spends more and more time with luka. they fall in love.
So I did take a few liberties on this to weave it together, but I really hope you like it! Huge thanks to @writtenbyrain for the beta read on this!
Read on Ao3
First Chapter | Previous Chapter | Next Chapter
Marinette had been told the story of her curse so many times she could recite it by heart.
“You were a baby,” her dad would tell her. “A tiny little thing, still all wrapped up in diapers. And that… thing—” he always growled at that, as if the dragon she’d been found curled up with had personally insulted him. He would shake his head, and give her a pitying look. “—It stole you from us. And by the time we found you, you were already cursed… already...” he would gesture to her at that point, indicating the way she was every night as soon as the moon slipped above the horizon.
Every night she was engulfed in a blue flame that made it impossible for anyone to come near. Impossible for her to be touched.
What she was never able to find out, though, was why. Why the dragon had apparently chosen her to curse, why it hadn’t killed her outright when she was barely out of diapers. Why she kept dreaming of sleeping safely within its coils, her fire cooled as if that was where she had always belonged.
She knew where it lived now. Everyone knew. It had taken up residence in a lonely tower high up on the mountain. Everyone said it was guarding a valuable secret; why else would it be there? Of course, people had tried to find out, although they often came back singed and babbling. Something about a dark sorcerer or a beautiful prince or a shapeshifter or… the stories always varied.
Finally, a reward was offered. The dragon had been a menace for far too long, the writ proclaimed. Anyone able to bring back its head would be handsomely compensated.
More people flocked to the cause: soldiers from far away places wearing shiny armor and bearing sharp, glinting swords, sorcerers with staffs and books claiming they had this method or another to calm the beast. None of them returned.
Night after night, Marinette’s flame burned hotter, brighter. And night after night she dreamed of the dragon. She couldn’t tell anymore what was memory and what was a dream. She thought she remembered the dragon plucking her from the river she’d fallen into, breathing life and fire into her lungs, curling up around her to keep her warm until her parents found her. But that couldn’t have been true. The dragon was dangerous, everyone said so. And it had left her with this unbearable curse.
“I’m going after it,” she proclaimed to her parents after the worst night she'd had in all of her eighteen years of bearing the curse.
Her dreams had been strong that night. She had awoken to her mom shaking her, screaming, desperately pleading with her to wake up. Her hands and arms up to the elbows had been irreparably burned in the process. It wasn't until Marinette had struggled into consciousness that she realized she’d been burning their house down in her sleep.
Her parents shared a look after her declaration. One of, “We shouldn’t let her, but what else can we do?”
Marinette winced as she caught a glimpse of her mom’s burned forearms, still wrapped in bandages and salves to soothe the shiny, blistered skin underneath. Her eyes slid over to the corner where she slept, with only her silhouette outlined in the charcoal her fire had left behind.
“I have to do this,” she said resolutely. “If there’s one good thing to come of this—” she gestured to herself and to the flames that spit and crackled around her “—it means I can’t be burned if I go at night. With the money, you can fix what happened. I'll stay in the stone tower after the dragon's gone where I can't hurt anyone else. Everyone wins," she finished glumly.
Her dad sighed in resignation and wrapped an arm around her mom’s shoulders.
So the next day just before dusk, they packed a meal for her to take with her, kissed her fondly on both her cheeks, and waved goodbye as she started up the path.
For it was goodbye. A sacrifice Marinette was more than willing to make.
As she trudged up the mountain path, the forest grew darker and more foreboding. The only saving grace was that as the light faded, her flame started burning, providing her with light to see by, although she did catch a branch or two on fire as she went. She poured her water out carefully on each one, putting it out without wasting her own resources. If she ran out before she made it to the stone tower, it was entirely possible she’d burn the entire forest down, and it would spread back to her village, back to her parents’ house.
She soldiered on, even as brambles tore at her skirt and arms, as she grew weary of walking, as she ran lower and lower on life-saving water.
It was the dead of night when she finally reached the tower, and the dragon wasn’t anywhere in sight. She walked up to the tower using the flagstone path, admiring the well-manicured garden from afar. The tower was quiet, almost as if it was slumbering along with the dragon.
She ran her hand along the cool stone wall as she mounted the steps one by one, dreading what she might find when she got to the top.
Halfway up, though, she ran into—well, if there was a beautiful prince trapped here, then it must be him. He was tall and pale, with a shock of dark hair and enthralling blue eyes framed by deep purple circles, as if he never slept. He seemed startled to see her at first, though she was used to that. A girl on fire was a startling sight.
But then he reached out a hand, smiling. She flinched away from him. His kind smile shifted to sympathy and he dropped his hand.
“That’s quite a power you’ve got,” he noted easily.
She shifted uncomfortably away from him. He didn’t seem affected by the heat she always emanated, but she was still careful not to get too close to anyone.
“The dragon cursed me with it when I was a small child,” she said.
His head quirked sideways, as if he were appraising her or trying to remember something. When he didn’t respond, Marinette tried again.
“I’ve come for the reward. Is it asleep?”
“He,” the man said stiffly. “And he’s gone for now. He disappears at night. You’re welcome to come back in the morning to try your luck.”
There was a note of despondency in his tone, and he scooted past her in the narrow stairwell to continue on his way down.
She considered continuing up the stairs, but if the dragon was gone, there was no point to it. She hesitated before she followed him—the prince, he had to be—down and back outside.
There was a pool of moonlight in the very center of the garden, and he walked over to it and lay down as if basking in it. The sigh he let out was at once content and terribly lonely. For some reason, it pulled at her heart. She knew that feeling. She had come to terms with her curse, with her lot in life. But that didn’t make it any better when she was unable to sleep soundly without worrying about her flames burning out of control.
She came as close to him as she dared and sat cross-legged on the flagstone path.
“You’re not… trapped here?” she asked. Every story she’d ever heard of the handsome young prince was that he was trapped, doomed, kept prisoner by the monster.
He didn’t open his eyes, but he smiled again. “Oh, I am.”
“But…” she glanced around. There were no fences, no guards, no magical barriers. She had walked right in, after all. “Can’t you just… leave?”
He did open an eye at that. “Can’t you just… put that fire out?” He smirked before he closed his eyes again and settled with his face towards the moon. “I’ve been trapped here for longer than I care to remember and now…” He looked over at her again, his blue eyes glinting in the moonlight. “So are you.”
She looked around again. Still, nothing that would prevent her, or him for that matter, from leaving. He sighed.
“The dragon, he’s been waiting for you. That… well, some probably call it a curse, but it's more like a bond.”
“A bond?”
“You were a small child, you said? When it happened?”
She nodded, and he nodded back in answer.
“The dragon was young, too. A child in his own right. He wouldn’t have known…” He sighed and closed his eyes again. “He wouldn’t have known that if he shared his breath with a human, he’d be claiming them. Bonded with them for the rest of his life, tethered to them. Cursed to share a half-life with them.”
“I’m… sorry... “ She struggled to comprehend what he was telling her. “You’re saying… I’ve been claimed?”
“If I had to guess, I'd say your fire only burns at night, right? As soon as the sun sets? Maybe only while you slept at first, but it's gotten worse lately?”
She blinked at him. Her mother’s burned arms floated back to the forefront of her memory.
“You have a fire burning in you that’s never been yours to control. If you had stayed away from him any longer, you would’ve burnt out of control until everyone you knew and loved was dead. You’re his and he’s yours, for better or worse.”
“I… wait… you’re saying…”
“You’re intended to be either the dragon's bride or his killer,” he finished bitterly, turning his head away from her. “Not that he has much say in the matter, either, if it’s any consolation.”
“But if I do… kill him…” she started, grimacing at the thought, “do you think that would lift my curse?”
“Yours and mine, too.”
“You don’t look very cursed to me,” she muttered. Other than being trapped, as he’d claimed, he seemed perfectly normal. Every bit the beautiful prince she’d heard tales of. With the moonlight falling over him, he was paler still and he looked like a marble statue that had fallen on the ground. His shaggy dark hair flopped over his ears in ragged lines, and even resting he looked tense.
To her surprise, he started chuckling, although there wasn’t any mirth to it.
“What’s funny?”
“Nothing,” he said, although he sat up and faced her. “I just wonder if you’ll still think that in the morning.”
“What happens in the morning?”
“The dragon comes back,” he said simply, and he pushed himself up to stand. “If you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll turn in. I have a feeling I’ll sleep better knowing my savior has come at last.”
He quirked his lips in a funny sideways smile, then offered her a hand again. She shook her head at him and he rolled his eyes.
“It’s okay,” he said. “I promise.”
She hesitated. The fear of hurting him flared strong and her fire started flickering and sputtering along with her anxiety. His eyes softened, and he reached forward, into her aura of flames. To her complete and utter surprise, his hand came through unscathed.
“I told you, it’s okay,” he said.
Stunned, Marinette laid her hand in his and he helped her stand up. Her fire raced along his arm and arced over his body until he was just as engulfed as she was. But rather than being harmed by it, it seemed he was helping her with it, sharing some of the burden. In fact, when he released her, she looked down at her hands and was shocked to find that the moonlight was the only thing illuminating them.
She looked back up at him and he smiled, although it was still tinged with sadness, and he gestured with his head to the spot of moonlight that still spilled across the grass.
She ran, giddy to be released from her curse for the first night in her entire life and fearful that it would come back before she could race back to the safety of the stone path. As she rolled in the cool grass, she couldn't help the giggles that escaped her, the pure bliss of being safe under the stars overtaking her. When she finally stilled, she sighed as she looked up at the bright, twinkling lights, unobscured for the first time. They were so clear, all the way up there, like she could reach out and touch one. She lifted her hand up and pretended she could, cupping the full moon between her hands as if she held it close.
She’d gotten so used to the flames crackling around her that without them the world seemed deathly silent. Peaceful, but eerie.
When she sat back up and turned to look back at the path, she found that the prince had disappeared. To turn in, as he’d said, although he hadn’t told her where she might sleep.
She looked at her hands again, so foreign to her without the bright blue flames. They looked smaller. More fragile.
Suddenly, she realized that was the one thing protecting her from the dragon. The reason she’d felt so confident in coming up here. She couldn’t be burned at night because she was already engulfed in flames. But he’d taken her flames away. He’d gifted her the ability to roll in the grass without burning anything down, sure, but he’d also stolen her protection.
Even though her flames weren’t snapping around her, she felt the panic rise up in her chest. What if he was a dark sorcerer after all? What if it was his job to lure people here and steal their power? What if this had all been a trap?
She stumbled to her feet and clenched her fists. He’d seemed so kind. She’d trusted him. She hadn’t thought he would steal from her.
She marched back inside, uncaring if the grass sizzled under her feet or not. The tower stairs only went up, so she followed them, winding her way up to the top, unsure of what she might say or do if she found him, but certain that she had to find him regardless.
The sound of heavy, deep breathing hit her first. It wasn’t human, that was for sure. It was something much bigger.
She tiptoed around the last bend, her fear climbing with each step.
She held her breath as a large room at the top came into view. One wall was completely open, and there was a huge, sleek, black, serpentine figure wound tightly around itself in the moonlight that spilled into the corner. One wing was draped over its head, like a curtain.
She held her breath as she backed out of the room.
Hadn’t he said the dragon wouldn’t come back until morning? Hadn’t he said it disappeared at night? Hadn’t he said—
She cursed the dark sorcerer, the beautiful prince, whoever he was, under her breath as she turned and tripped her way back down the stairs. He had also said she couldn’t leave, but based on the way he’d lied about everything else, that’s exactly what she would do. She would run, all the way back to her parents, to her village, even if it meant sleeping on a stone bed the rest of her life.
As she ran towards the forest, her steps started sizzling underneath her again, and her hands started to flame up before she could stop them. Her tears dissipated before they even had a chance to fall.
From the top of the tower, she heard a strangled cry, still inhuman, but closer to it, and filled with pain. It spurred her on, although the fire was starting to burn white around her hands, stinging her painfully, and she shook her hands, trying to put it out. The farther she ran, the more the fire seeped into her skin, making her cry out.
There was a great whoosh of wind behind her, then footsteps, matching her pace, although more spread out. The pain was blinding, but still she pushed on against whatever unknown barrier was causing it. She cradled her hands to her chest and struggled as each step forward was now a shooting, searing, white-hot bolt of pain through her.
Strong hands caught her from behind and pulled her backwards—the hands of the dark, beautiful sorcerer. She kicked against him, trying to pull away, but he held fast. The pain behind her eyes cleared and she realized he was taking the fire away from her again.
“You… can’t… leave…” he huffed as he dragged her backwards. She tried to claw away from him every step of the way.
Finally, though, he’d pulled her back to the clearing and dropped her on the stone path unceremoniously. She bolted back up to her feet and he caught her around her middle and shoved her back down, moving at the same time to stand in front of her and block her path.
“You can’t leave,” he panted again. “Or we both die.”
“I’m supposed to believe you’re kidnapping me for my own good?” she spat and scrambled back to her feet. “And who the hell are you, anyway?”
“Sorry. Luka. I’m Luka.” He held his hand out for her and she smacked it away. He winced. “You have every right to be upset. But listen to me. I’m just trying to protect you. You can’t leave this tower without me.”
He was still trying to catch his breath, and she noticed for the first time that his eyes had changed to serpentine slits and there was a distinct black sheen on the backs of his hands that worked its way up his forearms.
As she watched, he grabbed her hand and shivered as she was once again engulfed in blue flames and he returned to normal.
"We're connected," he explained softly. "We share the fire. It's mine in the morning and yours at night. Now that you've come here, you can't leave unless you're either with me or there's no fire to share, or it rips us both apart. So for your own sake, you either stay put or you kill me, do you understand?"
He released her hand, and she looked at them incredulously. That he'd taken her fire away and given it back was proof enough of what he was saying.
"Kill you?" she asked, his words sinking in through the remnants of pain behind her eyes. "As in… you're the…the...?"
"Yes."
"But you're…" she gestured to him, to his humanness, and he shifted uncomfortably under her bewildered gaze.
"I know. Like I said, it's yours at night. That was the first time in 18 years I've had the moonlight on my scales."
She gasped for breath as her fire started spitting around her, casting off sparks that came dangerously close to the grass. "I can't… you're human, or half-human or… I can't… I can't do this!"
"That's okay. Hey. It's okay." His hands hovered over hers, not quite touching her, leaving her fire with her. "What's your name? Can you tell me your name?"
"Ma-Ma-Marinette…" she stuttered as she attempted to keep breathing.
"Okay, Ma-Ma-Marinette." He smiled, trying to put her at ease. "Let's just take this slow, okay? Would you be willing to stay here tonight with me? We can talk more in the morning."
"You're a dragon in the morning," she said, then a hysteric giggle burst out of her at how ridiculous that sounded.
He chuckled with her and laid the back of his hand against hers. As her fire arced across to him, his eyes turned into slits again and his scales slid over his arm. "I don't have to be anymore."
She gaped at him as he pulled his hand away again and slid back to humanity.
"One night. That's all I'm asking."
Her dream popped back in her head and she blushed even before the question was out of her mouth. "If I sleep… you know, touching you, or like, against you… would that…?" She gestured to the fire still burning around her and then to him.
He smiled again and chuckled nervously. "Yeah, I think so. But everything's stone, so you won't burn anything down if you'd… you know, if you'd rather not."
She considered for a moment until her curiosity got the better of her.
"One night," she agreed.
He let out a sigh of relief and gestured for her to lead the way.
As she mounted the stone steps again, her fire—his fire, she corrected herself, he'd shared it with her—bounced off the smooth stone and flickered along with her nerves. This time at the top of the stairs, she paused to look at the room Luka had called his own for 18 years.
There was a nest of pillows piled in the corner, a stack of books with open pages fluttering in the breeze that flowed through the wide opening, a lyre leaning against the smooth wall, and bits and pieces of armor lined up along the wall like trophies. She recognized a few here and there and gulped. No wonder they hadn't returned.
She half-turned to him, her question dying in her throat, and he pressed his lips together in a thin line.
"Tomorrow," he said, gesturing for her to continue past everything. She did, but paused before her flames touched the pillows.
"Here," he said, and threw out a hand for her to take. Tentatively, she took hold of him and watched as he shivered and his transformation took hold.
He kept eye contact with her as scales slithered over his arms, his hands turned to claws, wings erupted from somewhere around his shoulders, and his body elongated until it was a solid length of powerful muscle.
She slid her hand to what was about his neck and he blinked slowly at her before lowering himself to the pillows and coiling his body tightly around itself, tucking his legs in what seemed to be a familiar position.
It was a bit awkward to maneuver herself into his coils without taking her hand off him, but they managed and he draped his wing over her, for warmth she assumed, because the breeze that was drifting in was nipping at her exposed skin. And he was warm, she realized, like having his fire returned to him made him a living furnace.
She could see it, when she twisted to look at him: a deep blue illuminating the thinner skin at the base of his neck and flaring brighter in his chest as he breathed.
She curled into him and fell asleep with his deep, heavy breathing in her ears and his sleek scales shifting under her hands.

not in any way excusing anything, but I did see in the yt comments that there were a good number saying “my submission was also hitler jokes, so sad it didn’t make it in” or “I submitted a nazi one but they only used my mine craft one” or sth. I really do think they could’ve picked better green screens to show, but I also think the fanbase has a good number of edgy “dark humour is my personality” straight boys. Which is sad bc the eboys r actually funny and don’t need to rely on edgelord humour
its not the first time they made edgy jokes though, the whole eboys channel is just them bluring things out.
youre right, their audience is straight white edgy dudes, and thats why they should be more careful with these jokes and not encourage it. maybe they should wonder why their white fans feel comfortable sending them jokes about hitler. while they arent directly responsible for their audience, they still influence them, whether they like it or not. each of them has at least 1 million subscribers, they have a huge amount of teens looking up to them.
the blatant misogyny and racism on british youtube has been there for too long. ksi gets called the n word in every one question go video and his audience laughs. elena bateman appeared in a callux/sdmn video and she got r*** threats because she.. talked? speaking of sidemen, the comment sections under their videos are always the most toxic ones. in the blind dating/tinder videos the girls appearing on them get so much hate.
back to the eboys, they always shift the blame to their viewers, dont they? i vaguely remember george making a video on someone and then the audience attacked them and george fully said he had nothing to do with it. he has 3.5(?) million subs, he knew damn well if he made a video on someone his audience would go over to their channel and send hate. and then everytime after that, whenever he made a video on someone he made a half assed disclaimer stating that he doesnt want his fans going over there.
personally, i dont care if someone makes edgy jokes. its not for me, but i just let it go bc i know its a lost cause. its the fact that they dont make their views clear and they dont take responsibility when they fuck up. millions of views means power, and as we all know, with great power comes great responsibility. the fact that their content attracts right wing white dudes means something, they just dont want to think of that something.
also, are we ever gonna talk about how they treated fraser, one of their loyal friends? this wasnt an edgy joke, this was something they did irl that affected an actual person, and their audience managed to gloss over that too. and then they, yet again, made edgy jokes about fraser on the channel and even made a "whos the fifth member of the eboys" video. gross. throw the whole channel away.
and ofc they probably said "we talked about it and its fine" but fraser is the one who has the least fans and he is the one who got screwed over, so its possible fraser just said a dry "its ok" and decided that it was just not worth it.
im mentioning fraser, because they did him dirty and its yet another thing that gets glossed over. while fraser wasnt my favourite, he was the only one who was actively talking about social issues, politics and his views. out of all of them, fraser is the least likely person to attract right wing members and he was the one that was left out. i dont know if it was bc they found him boring or annoying or bc he had less subs than everyone (i dont think thats the case), but they basically stole his idea.
its not a coincidence that alex gets the most shit, and its not bc of ***** (we can talk about That can of worms some other time). under the true geordie christmas podcast (the first one) you can see all the white dudes whining about alex. under every willne/memeulous video he appears in, you can always easily find ppl talking shit about him. this was happening even before *****, and every old imallexx stan can back me up on this. alex always got the most shit out of everyone. is it bc he wears pink? is it bc he is not masculine? is it bc he is bi? is it bc he talks more than their faves and they think he doesnt deserve it? (notice how they also had a problem with elena talking -- talking over straight white male comedians is a crime for them)
my point is, white edgy dudes tend to find a couple other white edgy dudes and just "gang together". these white boys project their beliefs on their favourite youtubers and assume that their faves have the same beliefs as them (even though, logically, we all know the eboys arent right wing members,they dont see it like that. they see white dudes joking about hitler).
what usually happens is that this fantasy of theirs starts to crumble. a beautiful example is idubbbz. his audience LOVED the fact that he said the n word, and the r slur, and the f slur, and all kinds of fucked up stuff. they worshipped him.
you know what happened? he found a girlfriend. they did NOT like her, at all. his gf decided to start an only fans. and suddenly, idubbbz wasnt the king anymore. he was just ian, a "simp".
as someone who reads the comments while watching videos i have noticed something. the dudes who talked about ian's gf talk the same way as the dudes talking about will's gf, mia. just something i noticed.
anyway, this reply is too long, im sorry... i just wanted to get some things off my chest and you gave an opportunity to do so. this isnt an attack towards you or anything like that, this was just me rambling.
english is not my first language and i havent proofread this so there are some mistakes in there. some things (fraser) werent really relevant, i just wanted to talk about them

My interpretations on the new Rammstein album
Alrighty, I think such ‘here’s my opinion how much I liked this and not’ are boring so I’m just gonna write what I think of and read out of the songs. I let out Deutschland and Radio cuz y’all know about them, I guess. Idk even if anybody is interested in this but here we go
Weit weg (far away) - one of my faves
On the first sight it seems to be kind of a love song because till sings about two people - a man watching a women undress and seeing her naked. Actually, it’s about Voyeurism. He is standing at her window, presses his face against the glass, there’s no interactions between them and she is the 'queen of his fantasies’. 'Ganz nah - weit, weit weg von mir’ (really close - far, far away from me) - he is incredible close to her and sees intimate moments, but he isn’t supposed to, they probably don’t even know each other. So, actually, emotionally they are far away from each other.
Diamant (diamond) - only sad song, big fave
Kind of a love song, Till is mostly singing about how beautiful the other person is, how bright her eyes shine, “how clear and pure” she is. It already sounds like as if he were in mad love with her, but he also wants her to finally 'let him go’, he wants to leave tho she is so marvelous 'like a diamond, but also just a stone’. He tried to reach her heart but wants to 'love someone who is able to hate’ - is she too perfect? Are they even together, or is it just him who struggles to let his love for her go? Maybe she doesn’t feel anything, doesn’t have anything except her beauty and is cold-hearted, diamonds “are just stones”.
Zeig dich (show yourself) - a fave, its really nice
Obviously a song about the church, unlike Hallelujah (which is about the child abuse of priests) this one is about the church in general. Most of the text are enumerations,“[they] do crime … forgiveness of all crimes, burn, … tracking, … accidentally abuse children” (Irony, damn that’s fore sure provocating) always ending with 'in the name of god’ which describes the long history, mostly the negative aspects and how the church allowed themself to do anything if they say they do it in gods will - a lot of people believed that. The dramatic choir underlines how much power the church had and how often it abused its power. 'Show yourself … we lose the light’ - religion gives humans hope and something to believe in, exploited by the church, but all these things are hidden behind a mask.
Puppe (doll (sometimes also puppet, toy)) - probs most interesting one
The protagonist is a child, who got a doll as a gif from his sister (he calls her 'Schwesterlein’ so he is probably way younger?). Her workplace is in the room next to his, he sees men coming there, 'sometimes it’s even two [men]’ - she is a prostitute. While she works, he is looking at the sky, taking his medicaments [like a good boy] - so he must be sick in some way. Since he 'rips off the head of the doll, bites off the neck of the doll’ and sings 'I really don’t feel good’ it’s probably something mental. Later, he watches through the keyhole how his sister gets beaten to death, he continues ripping of the head and biting off the neck but now 'he feels finally good’. No parents are mentioned, so the sister seems to be the only relative, probably being responsible for him and buying him the medicaments (one of the only details we get so they have to me important in some way). Maybe he didn’t like her and he imagined the doll is her? Being unhappy because she is still alive and after she got killed, finally being happy? Maybe, he is happy that he won’t need to take medicaments anymore, he looked the whole day outta the window and seemed to do nothing, bc the meds blocked him)
Was ich liebe (literally 'what I love’, in this context, “the things I love”) great song
Fans who heard through some demos should know this one because it’s the demo of Pussy. They used the very different lyrics and refreshed them (changed the 'will die’ to 'will verderben’) , making them into a song about a person which doesn’t want to be happy, doesn’t want to enjoy and doesn’t want to love. A lover of him will 'verderben’ - it’s a prediction, he doesn’t even think it just 'could’ happen, it will happen. He will be unlucky at some point and suffer, 'in luck is also ubglück’, he fears to be hurt so much that his lover 'must’ verderben. Though, he still talks about a lover, so next to this fear, he still does and wants to be happy, enjoy and to love.
Tattoo (tattoo) - I like the music and singing but the topic is boring to me
Pretty simply, it’s about tattoos. He compares paper with his skin and describes noticeably often the pain “when the pain hugs the flesh…” you feel while getting one and how much he likes them on his skin. ‘Show me yours [and[ I’ll show you mine’ it sounds more like a demand as if it were something intimate. Also, after gettin the name of the lover tattooed - in case that the partner would end the relationship - he would prefer to find another partner with the same name instead of erasing the tattoo. He’s just crazy for tattoos.
Hallomann (is norwegian and a word for moderator or similiar) - pretty good?
It sounds kinda as if he would like to spend his time with a little girl. He’s telling a her to “just get in” and to “dance for him” but he doesn’t want her to speak. They go together to the sea, he buys stuff for her. ‘You are alone’ - the girl is alone, maybe she was walking around alone? - and he is ‘all alone’, this sounds more like on an emotional base, being lonely. Not sure of in a romantic or a platonic way. After the dancing would come the Hallomann to her - I really don’t see the connection. Later they sunbath, do something with skin and sand. She has to ‘give her word’, take his hand and afterwards it won’t be the same. ‘Perl on the ring’ - a wedding ring? I’m not even sure if the person himself is an adult or maybe just a boy. In the end he says ‘don’t ask for the meaning’, maybe he just wanted to spent a nice day with her. It got some pedophile vibes at the first sight but nothing really indicates it. Maybe I just don’t see the methaphors lol okay everybody says it's about a pedophile and I guess;; he used phrases pedophiles often use
Ausländer (foreigner) - sounds like Schlager Urgh [german trigger] but good
Simply just a Gigolo jumping from one bed to another and fucking his way through the whole world. He doesn’t even “stay over night, just for 1 or 2 hours.” Anyways, it’s practical to speak many languages so he can talk with the foreign women. In that way he tells us that he’s good in these and speaks a lot, but the last sentence means something like ‘you coming with [me], I’m you doing goodd’ which is pretty bad in grammar but it’s enough to let her know what he wants.
Sex (sex) - love the melody and riffs, really good one
Uhm also pretty much just about sex? Sex without feelings tho. He ‘gets sick when he looks at you’ - it’s really just about the act - ‘mine is yours and that in you’. This is underlined by ‘better slovenly than again not’, he probably put the ‘again’ before the ‘not’ to let it stand out, again, so they already did it at least a couple of times, or better said, didn’t do it. Maybe they are in a relationship? But he can’t look at her anymore, he just wants her body for sex - and only the important parts. The contrast to that is the refrain, ‘We live only once, we love the life, we love the love, we love sex.’ The last sentence is ‘We live because … sex.’ So, he sings often they love the life and in the end it’s they only live for sex = they love just the sex.
#i could go deeper into the material but oof who even wants that lmao#some songs confuse me anyway#rammstein#personal#song interpretation#r+#if you see grammar mistakes just eat em i didnt watch it too much to b correct everywhere#if theres anything strange or in german just at me bc i dont see it then

LOVE YOURSELF 轉 Tear 'Singularity' THEORY
*mentally prepares self*
BTS THEORY- after watching it like three times so it doesn't explain _everything_ but-
(IMP NOTE: THIS WAS DONE WITHOUT PROOFREADING VERY LATE IN THE NIGHT)
BASICALLY, Taehyung knew/found out/can feel Jin controlling him (specifically when Jin made sure Taehyung didn't commit murder by sending Hoseok to stay with him) and now he's calling out for Jin, who he knows as some weird force thing making him do things he didn't originally plan on doing, to stop doing that.
random stuff I've noticed: - the room Taehyung is in is the one in the Japanese MV of I NEED U in the exact spot Jin kind of fell apart in - 2:33 SMERALDO FLOWER (remember Jin's tweet) *read more on it here: https://aminoapps.com/c/k-pop/page/blog/the-meaning-of-the-smeraldo/02Ik_uQr53QkR66PnzBRwGmDz45on the smeraldo is a fictional flower- it's literally just a white flower painted blue- but here, and in all the music videos you see a flower in, it's white, the original color. This may mean innocence, with the lack of color, or this may signify (in this video at least) Taehyung's untainted memories (in other words showing that Taehyung realized Jin was controlling him, thus chasing out the blanket Jin put on Taehyung's mind, or the artificial blue dye put on the white flower). (more on this later- just remember it)
*lyric analysis* (crap this'll be long)
"sound of glass breaking/I awake from sleep" Taehyung didn't know that Jin was controlling him to avoid murder until after a while (given as he successfully didn't kill anyone) because of the brainwashing (yeah I'll just call it that) Jin did that put Taehyung in a haze was strong, but that was shattered by Taehyung's stronger feelings of hatred, vengeance and the like.
"a sound full of unfamiliarity" Apparently, Jin had continued to control Taehyung's actions even after the whole murder thing was avoided, something Taehyung never really noticed but now-
"try to cover my ears but can't go to sleep" -he can consciously feel Jin taking over.
"the pain in my throat gets worse/try to cover it/I don't have a voice" Taehyung realizes that he can't do anything that the "sound" (which is Jin) doesn't approve of.
"today I hear that voice again" more mind-control from jin yay
"it''s ringing again, that voice" Jin's apparently strong af because he has the power to control a guy's actions daily while also trying to deal with five other people's problems as well as functioning daily. mulitasking level 1000000000000000
"a crack again on this frozen lake/I dumped myself into the lake/I buried my voice for you/over the winter lake I was thrown/a thick ice has formed/in the dream I shortly went into" bOIIII he didn't pass natural science did he bc he threw himself into the fckin oCEAN or was it a sea
BUT metaphorically speaking this may show that Taehyung willingly let Jin inside his head. Most likely Jin had promised something like "oh all your dreams will come true I'm your fairy jinmother and you're princess cinderatae" and that's why Tae went into a "dream", aka a dream-like state where Jin had complete control over Taehyung.
*OH AND THE ICE IS THE CONTROL JIN HAS OVER TAEHYUNG- this is important for later **the lake is control over Taehyung or the place Taehyung is held captive while Jin's doing his reform work on the boy.
Jin told Tae that all his burdens would be gone if he "jumps into the lake" or hands the controls of his life to him but-
"my agonizing phantom pain is still the same" -despite all his problems seemingly resolved, Taehyung still felt pain. He just felt hurt no matter how much Jin tried to foolproof his whole plan to rid Taehyung of anything murder-related, hence the words "phantom pain". Hatred is too strong an emotion.
"have I lost myself/or have I gained you?" Now Taehyung's wondering if it was better with Jin in control or if it was better when he was on his own. Though it's true that with Jin his life goes a different path away from the blood and killing, that life that goes the better way isn't his own. It's a glass half-full or glass half-empty situation.
"I suddenly run to the lake/there's my face in it" Taehyung slowly starts to realize that he can gain back control of his life.
"please don't say anything/reach my hand out to cover the mouth" He tries to actively stop Jin from controlling him.
"but in the end, spring will come someday/the ice will melt and flow away" It was there he knew that Jin's hold on him will not last forever.
"tell me if my voice isn't real/if I shouldn't have thrown myself away/tell me if even this pain isn't real/what I was supposed to do back then"
*he probably says it in an accusing, pissed off tone
Taehyung remembers the actions he was supposed to take before Jin intervened (murder basically) and questions Jin's right to force his hand. Though his actions were obviously wrong (don't kill people kids) and he could've literally thrown himself/his youth away by being sent to jail, he felt strongly about them; he had the undeniable will to kill his father. That will still hasn't been shaken, in fact, it's been intensified now that he knows the whole truth about what he was supposed to do and what Jin forced him into doing instead.
WITH THE ANALYSIS FINISHED-
The whole scene probably went a little like this:
[in the flowery room with the pool in the middle]
"I had to take over Tae," Jin says, trying to get Taehyung to stop glowering in the corner. His power over the boy is slowly fading, Taehyung's dark, ugly feelings and unshakable will pushing him out. "It was the only way you wouldn't get hurt-"
"Hurt?" Taehyung laughs humourlessly, and turns to face Jin. The boy's eyes seem the same as they've always been since the older one took over, a haunting grey that shows he belongs to Jin.
But flecks of brown creep along the corners of his eyes, a dark, dark brown of his former self.
It scares Jin.
"Hurt?" The boy repeats loudly, scoffing with a cynical grin on his beautiful face. "If you didn't want me to be in pain back then, why are you hurting me now?"
He takes a step towards the one who owns him, the one who's locked him out of his own head and controlled his every action, the voice constantly whispering into his ear that's finally quiet. His crazed smile turns down into a disgusted look.
"Is my voice useless?" He yells and the other flinches. "Am I nothing but your doll to play house with?"
The other tries to open his mouth to say something but nothing comes out; this has never happened before. The flowers usually kept him happy, expelling their sweet aroma and putting him in pretty fantasies that would keep him occupied for weeks on end.
"You keep telling me that these feelings of mine aren't real, that it's just my imagination," he continues, tone increasing in intensity, his deep voice climbing higher, "but why do they hurt so much?"
Jin inches closer, slowly putting an arm around the despairing boy. With a flick of his hand the flowers around them bloom, setting the room in a pale pink haze as Taehyung slowly relaxes his tense muscles, his drawn up eyebrows falling.
"What was I supposed to do with them, if not kill their source?" He asks, softly, eyes fluttering closed.
He falls into the other's arms and they both sink down to the floor, his head on Jin's lap.
"What am I supposed to do..." He whispers before he escapes reality once again.
A tear falls out of his closed eye.
Jin sits there for a while, softly stroking Taehyung's overgrown black hair. It used to be a light brown, neatly cut above his ears, but the darkness has returned. It's taking over him again.
He lays him down on a bed of rose petals on the side and stands up. With a snap of his fingers the room loses its bright, comforting color. The pastel spectrum that painted the flora around the room have turned into all sorts of sickly, rotten colors from asphyxiated purple to dead black. Others simply looked bleached, traces of bright blue or pink showing up on the tips. Without really knowing it, he glares at the room, and the flowers seem to hang their heads in shame with how close they were to the floor. Even the walls, once tiled with lively colors that were easy on the eye, are now just newspaper pages stuck to grey cement and the wide windows that show nothing but the demons outside the room. It's getting harder to maintain everything.
His power is fading.
In the middle of the pool in the middle of the room is a small Smeraldo, just one indistinguishable piece taken off the many growing from the wall, save for one thing; it's not blue anymore.
It's white.

a fun [hopefully] ask bc ur bored: whats some of ur all time favorite fandoms, fic by other people, and fic by you and why? for the fandom i mean ones you really enjoyed being in regardless of the media itself or if it was just the part you interacted with, if that makes sense?
okay so!! i’ve had some time to think about this let’s do it!! (this turned out rather long so i’m gonna throw a cut in here)
for favorite fandoms: i honestly really like the tiny fandoms, which mostly has meant books and podcasts! namely: six of crows, thrilling adventure hour, the penumbra podcast, and campaign. and also, i genuinely believe that any fandom is good if you can find the right people in it. like, i’ve made a couple of friends through arr*w, which is an objectively bad show with a lot of objectively really bad things that happen in it, but i was able to find people who (like me) were able to critique the bad things and still embrace the good characters and moments. i think that’s a powerful thing.
favorite fic by other people: i would honestly just say my bookmarks on ao3, which are kind of all over the place, and also my recs, which are equally all over the place. but some specific favorites:
i love, with an abiding and powerful passion, the twelve labors of sean parker. which is interesting because i never had a strong connection with the social network or that fandom, but i fucking adore this fic, because it’s completely in character, it’s a wildly detailed modern fantasy au, it’s a genuinely incredible translation of the canon plot, and it’s well written to boot. one of those things where my love for the fic will forever outlast my love for the fandom or the author or anything else.
speaking of fics i love more than the fandom: there is only one perfect coffee shop au, and that is the inception coffee shop au i’ve got nothing to do today but smile because it’s just so... warm. i adore it.
#bringhimhome, which tells the story of mark watney from the martian through social media is honestly fic goals for me because i love storytelling through unconventional means. also in this category are united states v barnes (the trial of bucky barnes told through court documents) and world war z, the novel (an oral history of the zombie apocalypse)
limited release is remarkable because, in addition to the smart and in-character writing and the adaptational choices that the author makes, i am endlessly impressed by the combination of the source material (x-men: first class) and the au basis (white collar) and an original plot that pays its dues to both and also stands perfectly on its own
i have never been a big shakespeare buff or a hamlet fan but the undiscovered country, which is a retelling of hamlet set in 1950s chicago, is just so... brilliant, and desperate, and it’s good. like, i can’t say anything beyond that. it’s just damn good.
and i also rather love this is how i’m slipping away, which is one of those fics that’s in the unique place of having been written during a hiatus (in this case the rwby3 mid-season break after the fight where yang blows out mercury’s knee) but it perfectly captures that suspense, in a well-written modern au, and it’s incredibly melancholy but in maybe the best way it could be melancholy
as for favorite things that i’ve written. god that’s hard to pick
epilogue (my now completely-jossed magnus/avi post-canon bit) because it was fun trying to balance the humor and the warmth in it, and because. hm. i dunno quite how to put this but. grief and the grieving process are important to me and it was a little cathartic to write moments of that into this story. i’ve never experienced anything on that scale but i’m personally very proud of how i handled that.
palm to palm (an rt rock band au) is my only take on the whole “unconventional storytelling” bit (it’s written in the style of a magazine interview) and it was the epitome of “i dunno what i’m doing but i’m having fun doing it”
your heart in mine (miles/kyle childhood best friends) is just. one of my favorites. i genuinely feel like it speaks for itself.
of course, all of the general specific and forward momentum are near and dear to me
i have a remarkably complicated relationship with say you’ll sway the night away but i like writing weddings and i like writing just pure love stories and it was fun, goddammit
and. i can’t believe i’m about to actively link to this one, but on a level that’s less about quality and more about personal significance: one eighty one (a very old torchwood fic) was the first thing i remember writing where people said “wow, your take on this is interesting and in character and true to canon.” and this was back, like, before whatever the date on ao3 is. i think i was thirteen and coming back to writing after being told that i shouldn’t do it (damn you, ff.net) and hearing that was so valuable to me, and so was the process of that being the first time of like. “this fic doesn’t exist. i want it to exist. i have written it and now it exists.” i cannot and will not vouch for the quality of it but it means... kind of a ridiculous amount to me? it was a lot of firsts. i dunno why anyone was praising the quality of my writing, because it very much reads like a thirteen year old wrote it, but. yeah.
thank you so much for these questions, i hope you enjoyed this look into my fandom psyche! have a wonderful rest of your day!
#waveridden.ask#anonymous#LORD this took longer to answer than i expected#but that was a lot of fun thank you very much anon!!

more botw blogging, SUPER spoilery
this is a real long post sorry normally i break these up and this time i didn’t
and finally, off we go to a new province
this time im making its tower my first stop, since i can see it from here
i tried to paraglide across the river but i didn't have enough height so i landed on the cliffside and ITS RAINING!!!!! for fucks sake
i cant believe this game actually got me to hate rain..........
not only that but when i died in the water it didn't reload me back to where i started to glide from but a bit of cliff i stood on lol so #struggles right from the first minute
rain for the next 3 hours.......and i gotta climb it in the rain....jesus
i guess i could fast travel but i'd have to walk all the way back there :/
hmm. maybe the gae's throwing me the rain on purpose. an npc mentioned this river was notoriously difficult to cross :///
yep as soon as i turned away: it cleared. Great
well i see some bridge-like things further downstream i guess i'll check that out
lol jk i managed to glide across a different part and climb
like i saw my forecast change but then it changed back to sun so w/e i'll take it im up here now
aaaaah i can see so many cool things from here!!!!! i cant wait to explore them all!!!! that #new province feel
i hate like, feeling obligated to track down every last bit of stuff in the old ones when you're seeing new exciting stuff
but i love the feel of getting to a new one and not even knowing which cool thing to check out first
ohhh my god lol there's a big-ass bokoblin camp on the way to the tower i think i see a moblin but im not sure
aaaand im dead
at least there werernt any moblins!
tbh it isnt a difficult camp i just wasnt vigilant about healing
me every time i see something new: what the Fuck is that!?
in this case it was an ice wizzrobe which made it snow EVERYWHERE oh my god
That Was Difficult
if i didn't have my fire arrows and lynel bow it would have taken way longer
i died again!!!
those weird pattern bokoblins have SO much attack power ):
come on i have to clear out the camp AGAIN? and kill the wizzrobe?
naw dude i am skipping this nonsense i am going straight up the fucking cliff
HA i sniped them from above >:3
w
there's a zora on top of this tower!!!!!!!
omg poor thing he can't get back down i wish i could carry him on my paraglider
man i love the tower cutscenes and music and the way they unfold it's so cool
BIG SHINY NEW PROVINCE YYYYEAH!!!!
oh hey i found another zora down near these bridges
they all want me to go see their prince haha noooo i have too much to explore!!!
oooh it's so easy to get all turned around on these bridge thingies
man i love this province it's SO pretty
ah i found a goron on a sandbar!! how did you get out here with all this water...
nooo the blood moon again i knew it was coming the music has been funny all night >:(
lol jk the music faked me out its 2am and i warped to the stable for nothing (i was trying to get that one dude's reaction)
i came back and did the shrine and found another zora!! lol they all really want me to go see that dude
there's a thing i need to climb but ugh rain
while i was bored i chopped grass and attached octo balloons to things
now i am in the wetlands which are AWFUL to walk through i can practically feel the mud squishing between my toes and i want to die lmao
there are horses here!! i miss mine ):
ive done enough shrines now to get another upgrade but i dont feel like doing all that backtracking blegh
oh noooo i see a guardian out here, a moving one ;_;
ah it's been awhile since i failed to fight the still ones on the plateau...i wonder what the start screen meant by "the right tools" ive got a lot of damn tools!! did they mean arrows??
lol yet another zora telling me to meet with the prince.........dude
this prince must be either desperate or spoiled
uh
okay maybe its a glitch but i think?? i see?? a flying island in the distance? What The Fuck
wait no it looks kind of like a ship or giant bird??
my pins don't stick to it, it's definitely moving around
jesus fuck
AHAHAH FUCK THE GUARDIAN SAW ME
HAD TO TAKE REFUSE IN THE FUCKING SHRINE
jesus christ i hate those things!!!! you can't kill them!!!!!!!
NO oh my god there's a hinox over here too
why this Why This
lol the hinox fighting music is giving me trauma flashbacks
actually that wasnt so bad with a defense elixir on
maybe it's just me but this province feels kinda small? i feel like i could finish exploring it p quickly, which is nice
not that i'm not having fun but i know i'm going so slowly ):
me every five seconds: i miss my hooorse i want one to ride around to go faaaaster
i guess...i could catch...one of these
and like. not register it bc the stable is 10000 miles away but
a temp ride. let's see if i can. need to use up some of my sneak potions anyways
i caught one and rode it awhile, but my heart's not in training it...i want My Horse
oh my god wait i hear town music!! is this a stable right here!! AAAAAH
so i did catch a pretty black one and named it luna - had to let the first one i caught go lol but it didn't have great stats and i only rode it once so it'll be happier in the wild probably
KASS IS AT THIS STABLE IM SO HAPPY SO IS HESTU
he's playing epona's song i'm gonna CRY
I MISS EPONA IM DYING
oh my god he had a story for me!! the same one that impa told!!!!! man
the music is still so good. fuck.
lmao i was talking to one dude and he was like well might as well head back inside ugh that place is so filthy and the women so free you might as well call it a manfill
UM?? NINTENDO??
i can see hyrule castle super close from where i am and it looks super scary and i super want nothing to do with it rn
i get the feeling you can like, go in there whenever? maybe even do the endgame stuff early? but oh my god i Dont wanna
OMG i just mounted a bear
i read that you could ride things other than horses but holy shit lmao
i mean
it killed me after i got off, but man
sadly i must now board my horse and continue with The Story see i explored the non-story bits of that province SUPER quickly dang
oh no
this shrine is called a minor test of strength
Oh No
Why, God
oh. that was actually like SUPER easy compared to the other two haha phew
this lady at the crossroads said the prince was creepy omg i knew there was something, ahaha, excuse me, "fishy"
whoa i love his music theme!!
lmao i always get so SHOCKED when they talk!!! even still!!!!!
voice acted cutscenes of this game are like fmvs of final fantasy games in generations 5-7 lol
oh my god...the wink/sparkle thing...he's such a HAM
he's flattering me TOO much omg dude what do you want.......
ok, ok, i like him
he doesn't seem very trustworthy but since his people are in trouble i'll cut him some slack on that one
oh nooo i gotta climb this in the rain......
ah, it's sunshowering tho! that's kinda neat
i just got attacked by octoroks and my heart wept a little because traveling up zora's river dodging octoroks to get to and save zora's domain...I've Been Here Before
listen, i could write a book on this
(lol i did write 300k on this but shhh that was a long time ago)
like...if link is actually a reincarnation does he get flashes of memory
oot happened in every timeline but i know wind waker didn't
but do you think assuming this is in the same timeline as wind waker something in him feels at home the first time he sails a raft again
or hears kass play epona's song at the ranch
or ducks an octorok on his way to zora's domain
people treat the incarnation thing as a kind of tragedy - the world will never be free of evil so long as ganon/ganondorf exists
but maybe there's happiness in it too
no matter what happens, no matter how sad the ending - i mean hell, in this very game, link and zelda LOST
no matter what though, it's guaranteed that they'll see each other again
over and over and over without end, link and zelda are gonna meet and be together for awhile while they defend hyrule again
frankly if that's not a soulmate idk what is
and frankly i'm perpetually offended that they don't develop ganondorf the man more like they did in wind waker...that was the Peak tbqh
i would kill for something like that again
anyway
i love how present the current here is, like with the stuff floating down the river, thats a NICE touch
tbh it's actually really nice that he keeps uselessly checking on me on the way up the river
like, i've been so lonely
even now i miss my companion going "what's WITH that guy" like they probably would if i had one
so this is nice. tbh.
i know it was probably a deliberate choice and makes the game stronger but a companion for this game, someone to share it with...that would've been cool
even just zelda as the protag, she could do some internal narration
but the whole thing is just so quiet.
this place is so pretty tho?? in the distance i see these like, pink coral looking plant things, and the blue columns and bridges are gorgeous
OH NO LIGHTNING GOD WHY
i think its an area thing too i cant just wait it out lmao im gonna Die
oh jk it's just rain now
idk why my entire forcecast changes to a particular type of weather and its only like that a few seconds...super weird and annoying
lol sidon all "you're almost halfway there i believe in you!!" and not helping fight and link's little "k" wave
i love link as a silent protag even if i did have him talk in my writing like it's so endearing
i wonder if link is like sgr like "i am 100 years old what is this zora kid even doing. what is he EVEN DOING."
lol just had to dodge some rocks rollin down a hill
you see this is what i mean. there's a weird sense of familiarity and nostalgia if you've played the games a lot. i wonder if the spirit of the hero feels that way with each new adventure, too
like if he's okay doomed to an eternity of fighting and parting with zelda over and over
because in the end he always gets to do this again
like i can see the spirit of the princess/goddess being high key miserable about those circumstances but i wonder if the spirit of the hero is maybe secretly glad
because part of him will always yearn for the next adventure
he never COULD be happy settling because this is what he was born for
WE love doing this again and again and again, maybe it's not such a stretch to think the spirit of the hero does too
or maybe i'm projecting so hard onto him because undertale has so successfully blurred the line between the player and the game for me LMAO
oh man i just noticed all the names on this map
lulu, mikau ;_;
i miss them!!!!
just once i wish zelda games would feature the same side characters in two or three titles
we never got to see saria or darunia or lulu again
we get to come back to the world but every friend we've ever made has been gone
like some narnia shit i swear to god
lol this is why i should never do story all i do is rant about My Zelda Feels, which are literally endless
oh NICE battle with a blue moblin on the bridge!!!!
ah i like the zora history here too please give me all the worldbuilding i wanna know everything about this world that i can bc rn all i know is "we got Fucked"
i guess i also know about the automans but i need More
i say, while procrastinating on getting to the story
in other news i have an ice and lightning rod which i havent bothered trying to use
bc when i tried to use the boomerang i failed utterly lol
but these? holy shit dude these are Powerful when you actually land a magic hit like Dang
i Love them im never avoiding another wizzrobe again (thats where they drop from)
oh wow
i finally made it, and
man. oh man. it's so beautiful
i wish i could see if better
jesus the zoras always had the prettiest parts of the games imo
OH NO THE MUSIC
OH NO!!! im gonna cry omg
it's the same melody from oot i think!! oh my god!!!!!!
omg there's a zora here named rivan who says he knows me?!?!
omg no he's listing some of link's old pals from Before im so sad why can't he remember
OOOH i shouldn't speak to the elderly bc apparently i am "guilty" of something?? i love this development PLEASE tell me more
i love that they all age so slowly #nice
am i walking into a fucking execution lmao sidon don't play me......
omg the little zora kids are adorable!!!
omg there's a statue of the zora champion ;_;
man this is all so cool i wanna know EVERYTHING about what happened back then!!!!
lol the shrine here was SUPER nerve wracking god you had to like, roll the giant ball down a hill and stop time at JUST the right moment skjghf
oh my gosh ANOTHER zora who knows me (lol "linny")
im so ;w; they all know me!!!!!!
i slept on the blissful water bed at the inn and was mystified and alarmed by the sound effects but i got an extra stamina wheel and 3 extra hearts!!! god damn you can't beat that shit
im so amazed at how many people knew link and like, blame him? i wanna know so bad what happened, i wanna know more about mipha
ten bucks says she's still alive and like trapped in the divine beast but corrupted
or a ghost or something like the old man ;_;
aww zoras sleep in the water aw aw :3
i'm loving this theme of link sleeping for so long like at first i thought of sgr but i just realized it's also like oot (and i can't believe i didn't make that connection first...)
like in oot the people who knew him Before are so happy to see him again and are sure he can help them
but in this game it's a bit mixed
and in this game we don't know the details of 100 years ago yet ;_;
zora's domain here is like. so GLOWY. reminds me of waterfall from undertale tbh lol i wanna paint it
so i'm talking to the king and this one elderly zora goes "the hylians abused an ancient society's power to turn hyrule into what it is today" & like...tbh my dude you have a point. if they had never gotten those guardians out then they couldn't have turned on them
oh my GOD
i just got my first look at a divine beast and i can't believe i was calling them jaegers
my jaw dropped irl holy shit
like that thing truly looks both divine and beastly (this one is an elephant)
is mipha still in there as like a ghost ;_;
it's so clear how much everyone misses her
and she seemed so sweet in the one short memory i recovered
every time sidon does his sparkle smile i love him a little more
i didn't trust him at first bc he seemed a little too eager but now i see he's just doing his best!!!!
especially as someone who thinks radically and progressively in a society where elders stay around hundreds of years
YESSSSS I GOT ZORA ARMOR!!!! YES!!!!!!!!
SWIM SPEED UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
omfg and it's an engagement thing just like the sapphire
MADE BY MIPHA?
thats right that other lady said link was supposed to choose between her and mipha
listen mipha seems cool and all but i've been shipping zelink for 19 years, so
oh NO, mipha had feelings for link
oh no poor mipha...oh my god
WAIT AM I ABOUT TO GET ANOTHER MEMORY??? OH MY GOD!!!!!
duuuuuude
"no matter how bad the wound i will ALWAYS" heal you and then link wakes up in water
did she do that!!! did she save him ;_; oh my god im going to cry
"you are quivering like a hatchling" PLEASE protect my poor son
muzu is making me sad dude he misses her so much and he hates this so much
ooooh i have to fight another lynel for shock arrows...good Lord im not looking forward to that
I KNEW IT
"calamity ganon took control of the beasts and trapped the champions inside" yep either she's still alive like link and zelda or her body is in there and so is her fucking ghost
DUDE!! i just swam up my first waterfall and it was AWESOME!!!!!
so im at shatterback point now hwere lynel is just bc i wanted to swim up a waterfall but probably he will kill me quickly lmao
apparently you can mount him too which. sick.
but idk i dont have any good food or elixirs or weapons ready im just up here for science im probably gonna knock off soon i gotta Draw
Oh Fuck There He Is ):

[[ "Shall we play a game?” Kankri Vantas, hurt and resentful but still in love.
part two of Wiz/Kankri logs!! the questions game ]]
valorousimperial What's your favorite color?
wiz-texts ...purple. especially dark pink n blue are tied for second
valorousimperial Your turn.
wiz-texts you mean i ask you one?
valorousimperial Yes.
wiz-texts well there we go thats it ....kiddin
valorousimperial Shh. I laughed.
wiz-texts what bout your favorite color?? i promise i wont jus be stealin your questions but colors is a good one
valorousimperial Blue, like indigo bloods. It doesn't really fit with the theme of the crown, though. The color just seems peaceful.
wiz-texts yea!!! yea indigo blue is real pretty your turn
valorousimperial If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
wiz-texts oh gosh if....... if there was a way to just.... stand on top of everythin n watch..... all of it roll out in front of you........ i would do that maybe that sounds like some kinda crazy god fantasy but i just think itd be really beautiful but since that prolly aint a doable thing
valorousimperial Considering you're some kind of crazy god, maybe it is.
wiz-texts maybe but my alternate answer would be a garden a huge huuuuuuuuuuuuge garden, w everythin in it!!!! or near everythin i love plants so much
valorousimperial Your lilacs are still overrunning mine.
wiz-texts >:0 theyre misbehavin?!!! i better give em a talkin to they aint usually growin outta their spot so, um, if you remember your dreams.... whats your favorite thing youve ever dreamed about??? for whatever reason, ha
valorousimperial They got so big!!! Mmm... My favorite dream is the one that came true. When I was young, I dreamed of freedom.
wiz-texts n you got it?
valorousimperial I don't know if I'm free. There's a lot of binding about being the emperor.
valorousimperial But at that time, freedom meant being out of my donor's control. I *did* get that.
wiz-texts holy shit thats.... thats wonderful. im so glad you got that maybe...... hm
valorousimperial ?
wiz-texts just a thought. i... hm im scared its a hurtful one so i should prolly just.... keep it to myself for now
valorousimperial If you want.
wiz-texts fuck knows you deserve a break but not yet because uh, your turn to ask a question
valorousimperial If you could change one thing that happened to you, what would you change and how?
wiz-texts ha. loaded question
valorousimperial Doesn't have to be recent.
wiz-texts problem is i dont remember like......... a lot of things. most things i cant remember what th event wouldve been but it had to have started somewhere
wiz-texts th first time my friends ever hurt me. if i could, id change it so id never have believed it was my fault
valorousimperial That's a good thing to want to change.
valorousimperial I think your whole life would have went very differently.
wiz-texts id be different thats for sure maybe less scared i guess th important thing is that i did realize it wasnt my fault or more likely someone told me bc i..... do not come easily to realizations like that on my own
valorousimperial (It was me.)
wiz-texts ....oh thats. huh. so i guess..... i still remember things i learned from you wonder what else there is um!! whats your favorite myth? or folk tale??
valorousimperial Mmmm... That's hard. Fantasy was all I had when I was growing up, so I know a lot of things. I think that probably my favorite stories were the ones that didn't have lessons - they were just full of people doing what they wanted So, ancient mythology really caught my eye. It made the gods seem troll-like, and they just did what they wanted.
wiz-texts oooooh :0
wiz-texts i keep feelin like i oughta look more at myths because so many are bout gods n thats sorta? what i am i guess??? its nice to seem em bein regular but like. actin regular except w mighty powers i guess, ha
valorousimperial Right.
wiz-texts this question thing is sorta fun actually did we play it before??
valorousimperial I agree! No!
wiz-texts we shouldve!!!!!! its.... its a fun sorta way to get to kno each other anyway um, your turn....
valorousimperial I'm thinking...
wiz-texts think fasterrrr im kiddin. take your time
valorousimperial If you could go any*when* and change any*thing* with no horrific consequences, What would it be? It doesn't even have to be something related to you, Just. Something that you want to be different.
wiz-texts well frankly i would go back to last night n smash my goddamn phone [[<BACKSPACE! BACKSPACE!!! ]] gee um all of time is a rough one to pick from
wiz-texts if theres an event that couldve stopped th game from happenin, thats what id go for but then maybe i wouldnt exist???? idk. exchangin me n a few others to save multiple universes seems like a fair trade ....whoa thats a grim answer. oops
valorousimperial From what I've heard of the game, it's not that simple. So many universes wouldn't have been *born* then, right?
wiz-texts not really. they kill a universe and in theory you get to make one maybe..... one in several million sessions actually ends in created universe
valorousimperial I thought it was only one planet that was supposed to be destroyed?
wiz-texts nah they wreck th whole shebang ....i think most of th game is fuzzy between th violence n alcohol my turn!!!!
valorousimperial Your turn!!!
wiz-texts this is sorta silly but i keep thinkin bout it so here goes: do you ever paint your nails??? if you do or dont, what colors do you think youd like?
valorousimperial I do! Lots of trolls paint their claws.
wiz-texts (that totally aint two questions its one question in.... two parts. with a bunch of extra question marks)
valorousimperial It's seen as an accentuating thing, as claws are a vital part of troll standards of beauty.
wiz-texts ooohhhhh :0
valorousimperial My favorites are matte red and metallic gold.
valorousimperial Mm... What's your favorite sort of thing to wear?
wiz-texts mm?
valorousimperial Like, Do you have a favorite type of clothing?
wiz-texts hmm.... button-up shirts. they can be comfy or stylish and i guess accessories that go w that?? though ive only recently started experimentin like watches n bow ties n cuff links also: gold rings. fr some reason i have a bunch: i think there was a party?? i vaguely recall there bein a party
valorousimperial I've had you at a few parties. Do you know how recently it was?
wiz-texts real recent. i think th rings went w a suit?? yyyyea this red n black one
wiz-texts hm. i never really thought of red as my color
valorousimperial Auriel's party.
valorousimperial It matched my suit.
wiz-texts oh my god i promise i didnt mean to diss th color red!!!! i jus figured since i already got th pink thing goin, itd b a bit too much??? so i never wore it ...guess i changed my mind
valorousimperial You came to the party as my quadrant, so you probably decided to just match me.
wiz-texts speakin of clothes, um.... i hope this is an okay question do u wear gloves a lot or somethin???? i know i never rly do but there are a bunch of gloves in my sylladex
valorousimperial ...
wiz-texts all like, really nice material n stuff. black or white. some are gray. um. are they yours??
valorousimperial Oh. They're for my psionic. I always forget gloves, but whenever I touch other people, I feel their emotions. I guess you were preparing for me.
wiz-texts i guess so... ill um, ill keep em in th 'dex if thats alright. in case you need em n im round.....
valorousimperial Alright. ... What were you thinking earlier?
wiz-texts heck
valorousimperial Sorry.
wiz-texts thats kinda... um sorry in advance if this is upsettin?? sorry
valorousimperial I know I said I wouldn't ask, but the curiosity is killing me.
wiz-texts what you were sayin bout freedom made me wonder if.... if maybe freedom had somethin to do with why i made that choice
valorousimperial ... Free of what? Of me?
wiz-texts no!!!! no i mean th scars!! they can be....... bindin
wiz-texts in a real bad way
valorousimperial ...mm. I know about that.
wiz-texts you do???
valorousimperial Yes.
wiz-texts im kinda surprised, i thought round here scars are considered attractive n all that
valorousimperial They are.
wiz-texts (...did you tell me that?)
valorousimperial (Yes.)
wiz-texts (okay)
wiz-texts um... whose turn is it??
valorousimperial It's mine.
wiz-texts oh okay
valorousimperial Wait, No, it's yours.
wiz-texts 0o0 tbh i shoulda asked this first because Super Important what....... is........ your opinion on purrbeasts?
valorousimperial !! We went on a date to a cat cafe
valorousimperial I brought home four of them!
wiz-texts you took me to a cat cafe?? :0
valorousimperial You took ME to a cat cafe!
wiz-texts *what* no way.... where did i get that kinda initiative omfg more importantly!!! there's FOUR MORE KITTIES round here somewhere????? i gotta meet emmm
valorousimperial ?? Shouldn't you remember the cats? They love you.
wiz-texts i guess they were too close to you. i mean now that i think bout it i sorta remember???? but its fuzzy like th ball w that Auriel lady
valorousimperial Their names are Mushik, Halmim, Romila, and Vessin.
wiz-texts that sounds bout right..... yea, bout right i took you out to a cat cafe n you adopted four. wow your turrrn
valorousimperial My question WAS going to be if you DID remember the cat cafe, but that answers that. What's your favorite dessert?
wiz-texts i think it might be milkshakes!! i only tried em recently but theyre super yummy (least favorite is anythin with squash. especially pumpkin)
valorousimperial (Even pumpkin spice milkshakes?)
wiz-texts (i ate nothin but pumpkins for so long....... so so long =_="")
wiz-texts what is........... your favorite..... veggie dish
valorousimperial I really like peas...
wiz-texts omg theyre sweet!
valorousimperial But they get stuck in my teeth
wiz-texts 0-0
valorousimperial The little casings do. The same with corn.
wiz-texts that reminds me of my next question but its ur turn first
valorousimperial What should always be on a sandwich?
wiz-texts food
valorousimperial Hah.
wiz-texts but meat i guess????? though i really like tomatoes tomatoes ARE the red ones right
wiz-texts n when th leaves r all crispy!!!! they taste sweetish n refreshin somehow??? idk i jus like it im just buildin a whole sandwich at this rate
wiz-texts mmm.......
wiz-texts what kinda teeth do you have?
valorousimperial Two rows of something awfully sharklike!
[[ Several Hours In The Future, Because I Heckin Fell Asleep... ]]
wiz-texts ....fallin asleep without rememberin that you even laid down is a surreal dang feelin
valorousimperial I know, right? I passed out without realizing I'd closed my eyes...
wiz-texts yea i had..... felt like some kinda multiple row thing was goin on. otherwise that mark in my shoulder wouldnt make as much sense also because peas stuck in shark teeth is a funny mental image
valorousimperial Shoosh!!
wiz-texts ha so, your turn if um. if were still playin
valorousimperial Hmm.. What's your favorite texture?
wiz-texts dang uh...... thats actually super hard bc i love experimentin with all kinds of textures
wiz-texts i guess my favorite.... kind? of texture? that would be stuff that feels soft like kitty fur!! purrbeast i mean
valorousimperial Why do you keep saying that??
wiz-texts sayin what
valorousimperial Purrbeast You, uh. You know that cat is the normally recognized word, don't you?
wiz-texts oh!
valorousimperial I've been saying cat,
wiz-texts no ive just heard purrbeast n meowbeast used by trolls a bunch so i figured itd be considerate to switch when im talkin to trolls.....
valorousimperial Oh.
wiz-texts ive been tryin to make it a habit...... well now i just feel silly, ha
valorousimperial ' - beast' is generally lowblood vernacular Which I'm trying to phase out by providing better education. Descriptive naming is a habit that trolls without access to worthwhile education picked up so they could communicate ideas.
wiz-texts whoa. i had no idea
valorousimperial I mean, honestly, Mituna still adamantly calls the meowbeasts, so you do what you like, but We do call them cats. So if you don't want to, you don't have to correct yourself, and most trolls will still know what you mean.
wiz-texts huh. okay thanks for th lesson there
valorousimperial Happy to!
wiz-texts so..... my turn.....
valorousimperial It is!
wiz-texts do you want to meet today? it um. its okay if you dont, of course
valorousimperial Mm... We probably should.
wiz-texts so youre.... youre okay w that?
valorousimperial Yes, but Not RIGHT this second, if you don't mind...
wiz-texts oh um, right. of course so... when, then?
valorousimperial It's just that I have a guest right now So maybe not too long, maybe an hour or so.
wiz-texts oh!! oh right, okay. wouldnt wanna impose or nothin, of course
valorousimperial Hours in the future, but like one: -------------------- Okay, I'm ready.
wiz-texts me too. comin back now
valorousimperial You said that before. Except now I can't say 'the hall between my block and yours' because you'll get lost now.
wiz-texts oops
valorousimperial So, I'll just Come to yours.
wiz-texts alright. im still headin over so i guess well see who shows up first
