THOR OMG. Not a Hero move.
OMG the Power Friends return.
Flower still lives with Hetty???
OMG.
LOL these two are bad are lying.
Pony & Bangs at it again.
Isaac's face thing!!!! He was so disgusted. :(
WHAT??? There wasn't anything!! Why didn't SEE this drama??? You can't just claim this. One fight is not enough.
Carol! OMG.
Is this really going to cause a problem for Jay :(
"Bribable with a lollipop - might be out dated".
LOL Bela mentioned as responding to every review, creatively. :)
THE MAFIA??
OMG Carol.
I love coming into these episodes unspoiled. :)
LOL - Jay... no.... well it is.
Sleeping with the fishes. LOL
Awww, Jay.
Carol's family is a Mob family. OMG Pete never knew. I'm dying.
I CANT BELIEVE THIS.
Sass is too funny.
Aww Pete. Useful idiot. Alberta!
Hetty is lying through her teeth.
Oh no, this is going to end up being a trouble for Trevor. WHO LIVES IN THAT ROOM.
"It's alright forgotten - I believe you."
That's so comforting Carol.
Sam's freaked out face.
Ohhh Jay.
Carol telling Sam that killing Jay would be okay - you'll find someone else.
OMG. This is so awkward.
UH oh. UH oh.
Big real estate moves.
Oh no. He's going to lose this vote.
Flower's not good at secrets. TBF he was going to get the idea on his own.
Trevor: *Hetty*.
LOL Carols like you're a dumbass.
THE GHOSTS ARE RUINING THINGS again.
I'm curious how they're going to get out of this.
OMG
Carol! They're family too.
Awww Pete! He wants to help.
LOL Jay.
Carol was a mob accountant. Jesus.
There's a tasteful nudes box - LOL.
Trevor and Hetty are going ending up sharing a room.
OMFG.
Why are Alberta and Isaac so against this!???
This is hilarious. "It's a matter of time before you two get back together." If I didn't know better, I would say they were already back together and this was a way to get them to share a room.
Wait Alberta and Isaac would rather live together - so Hmoney won't??? THAT MAKES NO SENSE.
Why did Isaac get to keep his solo room when Nigel left? Seems unfair.
But now Trevor/Hetty have their own rooms. Okay. At least Trevor finally gets a bed.
That's so dumb. Especially because we never saw too much drama.
Side note - Florfinn were having sex in front of Trevor and it's a sacrifice to not get it?
"He can't hear you Pete" - "That's why I feel comfortable about it"
Yay!!! It worked!!!
Awww all the postcards :) So cute.
"That is tasteful!"
OOOOh They so planned it.
LOL move very slow.... she won't figure it out.
And Flower figures it out??? ANDDDDDDDDD She forgets??? LOL love it.
Overall, I enjoyed the episode. Thoughts???

College! Mizu x Dancer! Reader pt 2
I found this cute and old bachata song that I used to love when I was younger and I thought it'd be perfect for this. You don't have to listen to the song as you read this but I'll provide the link for it if y'all are curious about which one it is. I hope you like the song and what I wrote. Enjoy! <3
A/N: This started out as just like a blurb but kind of ended up being a bit of a story towards the end lol
Part 1
Tumblr media
Rehearsing your choreography with Mizu got easier every session. The more you two practiced the more comfortable and confident she became with the dance.
Dancing with Miu was such a fun feeling. You loved the feeling of her hand wrapped around your waist while the other was entwined with yours. The dance also ended with her dipping you and although you ended up falling and laughing on the floor a few times, she eventually perfected the move. And boy did you love staring into those blue eyes of hers as she securely held you by your waist.
The day finally came for your dance test. Mizu was a little nervous but you were actually fully and truly confident in the both of you.
"Look I know you're a little nervous but really there's no need. Mizu we've both worked really hard on this and I know we're gonna do amazing. Okay?"
"Okay," she nodded with you and delivered you a small smile.
"Great. Now let's go show these bitches how to do a kickass salsa dance," you grinned as you both excited your dorm and headed for your test.
After you perform your dance the both of you earned a really good reaction from the class. Grades wont be posted till later in the night but you were confident in your and Mizu’s performance.
To celebrate you and a few classmates decided to go to a club. You were a moderate drinker but mostly you all went for the great music. You invited Mizu who of course declined at first.
“Come out with me tonight. It’ll be fun and you deserve to celebrate with the rest of us!”
“I don’t know it’s not really my kind of scene.”
“But it’s Latin Night and they're gonna have a live band” you pleaded. “The place is a restaurant/club and their food is so good! They start clearing up some tables after 10 to dance but you’ll still be able to eat.”
If there's one thing that you learned about Mizu is that she is bribable with food and you began to see it on her face that she was seriously considering your invitation.
And now for the final nail.
“Also it’s my treat,” you innocently smiled to her.
"Y'know you can't just throw in 'my treat' every time you want me to do something," she sneered.
"But you told me begging never works and 'treating' you has been very effective so far."
"True, but I said begging never works when other people do it."
Your eyes slightly widen at what she implied and watched her as she put on her jacket and pocketed the keys to your dorm.
"Come on, lets go," she mumbled.
You squealed in joy and instinctively went to hug her. She stumbled at the impact but laughed and hugged you back.
When you got to the club you sat down with the rest out your classmates who decided to come out and ordered some food. You and Mizu were getting lots of compliments on your performance. One girl even pulled you aside and asked if the two of you were dating to which you confidently replied, "not yet."
Surprisingly, Mizu was having a really good time, mostly because the food was good but the music and vibes were also nice so she was genuinely enjoying herself.
That was until some tables were cleared for dancing and one of your classmates asked you to dance with him.
"You gonna be okay here for a bit?"
"Yeah, no, I'll be fine," she nodded but it wasn't too convincing to either of you.
"You sure? I don't want it to seem like I'm abandoning you, especially since I begged you to come with me."
"Don't worry about me. Go have fun, be in your element. I'll be here."
"Okay, just one quick song," you gently squeezed her shoulder before joining your friend on the dance floor.
Of course Mizu wanted to say no but she didn't want to hold you back and also you weren't together. It'd be weird if she expressed how much she disliked the idea of someone else dancing with you. Wouldn't it?
Her eyes were trained on you as you both danced. She loved the dress you picked out. It adorned you body in the most flattering way and flowed perfectly as you danced.
The dress looked lovely on you but she didn’t appreciate the hand placement of your current dance partner. In actuality his hands never strayed inappropriately but she just didn't care for them being on you at all.
A deep scowl was starting to form on her face and that's when she decided, although she wasn't much of a drinker, she needed one to cool off.
She walked to the bar and ordered herself a long island iced tea. At least now she had something to fidget with.
She’s so fixated on you she barely notices a girl is trying to hit on her.
“Hey, you’re Mizu right?”
“Yeah,” she dryly mumbled, eyes still trained on you.
“I thought your performance with (y/n) was really good!”
“Thanks,” she sipped from her drink. “It was all (y/n), she choreographed everything. I just stepped in as a favor.”
“Aw c’mon you’re telling me you didn’t improvise any of your moves?”
Mizu just slightly shook her head, relief taking over now that the song had at last concluded.
“Well,” she coyly rubbed on Mizu’s upper arm, finally succeeding in getting her to even look her way. “Maybe you can improvise some moves with me, or I'd be glad to show you some of mine.”
Mizu looked at her arm and then the girl, confounded and flustered by her actions. People had asked out Mizu in the past but no one's ever been this forward before.
“Umm…”
You were clapping for the band and thanking your partner for the dance, as that whole scene with Mizu was going on. The band announce their next song and you get excited as it's the one you asked them to play if they knew it [the song i linked]. However the excitement is quickly replaced with anger when you finally see the a girl, the same girl who had previously asked if you and Mizu were an item, feeling up on Mizu’s arm.
"Oh that little...!" you seethed.
If you were a cartoon smoke would be blowing out of your ears right now. You wasted no time in sauntering over and grabbing Mizu's hand and leading her to the dance floor.
"Hey partner, come dance with me," you spoke, directly eyeing the girl who invaded Mizu's space.
“I appreciate the save but I don’t know this dance,” Mizu warned as you reached the crowd of people dancing.
“Don’t worry it’s a really easy 4 step dance just do as I do…1…2…3….and 4….1….2….3…and 4..."
To Mizu's relief the dance actually was incredibly simple to learn. Pretty quickly she fell into rhythm with you and the music.
"Look at you go, now you can dance salsa and bachata," you praise as you twirl her.
"I owe it all to my amazing teacher," she praised back and actually went in to twirl you.
You gasped and laughed at the instant confidence Mizu seemed to have gained with the dance. A familiar and warm feeling began to bubble up in your chest. Maybe it was because of the music or the romantic lyrics. Or maybe it was because of how right it felt having Mizu's hands on you, to be dancing with her again. Regardless, you know the crush you had previously possessed for her has only grown stronger.
The song playing was one of your all time favorites, you couldn't help but mouth the lyrics as you both danced.
*Quiero ser tuyo enterito pero tengo miedo
Prométeme que no me vas a dejar sin tu amor
I'll give you my heart girl but you gotta promise
Promise you'll hold me, touch me, love me
Way past forever
Mizu spun you around and you giggled as you twirled, wishing you could live this moment forever. But sadly all good things must come to an end.
The song finally finished and everyone clapped at their performance. The band announced they were going to take a small break and that's when everyone scurried towards the bar.
"We can start heading back home now if you want," You said to Mizu.
"You sure?" Mizu asked, surprised that you wanted to leave early, it was just past 10:40PM.
"Yeah, I got an early class tomorrow. Did you have a good time?"
"Actually I did, maybe more than I had expected."
"Well, I'm glad," you smiled and quickly looked away, finding yourself not being able to look into her gorgeous blue eyes for too long.
Both you and Mizu said bye to your classmates, the girl who hit on Mizu was nowhere to be seen and secretly you were glad about that too. Mizu helped you put on your coat and together you two headed back to your dorm.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A/N: This ending felt very MEH but I actually might make a final part 3 maybe see what happens when you get back to your dorm hmm? ;) I just felt like this already became longer than I was anticipating lol but I really hope y'all enjoyed it!
EDIT: i forgot to add the translation to the spanish part of the chorus
*I wanna be yours entirely but I’m scared
Promise me you won’t leave me without your love
Roughly that’s what it translates too! I adore this song y’all, to me its just so cute so i hope you like it 😭💖

5 Things the Book Did Better
With the end of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, here are five things I think the book did better than the show (To go with my 5 Things the Show Did Better)
1. Smelly Gabe
Most specifically the 'Smelly' part. In the book, Sally marries Gabe to hide Percy's scent. In the show, she marries Gabe because... reasons? It is a huge part of her character to kill her abuser ("I knew I was leaving her in safe hands; her own"), and end the cycle of abuse that she started out of love and a desire to stay close to her son. In the show, she protected her son from monsters by... sending him to boarding school? (even the logic the show has mostly been improving doesn't work as well on that one) It just leaves a lot of plot hole of why Gabe? And then in the final episode, it makes sense Sally isn't the one who kills him, because he hasn't been set up as the archetype abusive step-parent he was in the books, and maybe it was a little dark for a kids show, but it is a huge plot point in PJO of breaking the cycle of abuse, and actively making decisions to prevent that which Gabe accidentally killing himself just gets lost.
2. Charon
WHERE'S HIS ITALIAN SUITS? WHERE'S HIS BRIBABILITY? WHERE'S THE INOPPORTUNE MOMENT PERCY BLURTS "CHARON WANTS A PAY RISE" TO HADES?
I have feelings, okay, and those feelings want to see Charon in his full glory.
(But really, such a big part of what drew me to Percy Jackson as a kid was the fun, new interpretations of mythology adapting to the modern world, and characters like Charon were such a prime example of that I'm really sorry the show cut out on)
3. Humour (specifically past ep. 3)
Something about having narrator!Percy of the books was the constant lighthearted and funny (and confused) comments about everything. The show seemed to discard almost all the humour and jokes for plot halfway through episode 3, setting a much less lighthearted tone for the rest of the series.
4. The Show's Constant Explanations
I get it, it makes sense Sally might think it's a good idea to teach Percy some myths. That doesn't mean every little myth needs to be explained in excruciating detail. Just let the scenes play out, without spending ages talking about exactly what they are going to do and where exactly everything and everyone they meet fits into Greek Mythology first! There's simply no suspense for the audience when they spend five minutes talking through every little thing they do before they do it.
5. Cerberus
Whose a good doggo? Book Cerberus! He's just lonely, and wants someone to play with him! He doesn't need to chase and almost kill the trio in some big dramatic scene, he just wants to play with his ball.

🌟 for aris and dee
Tumblr media Tumblr media
☠ -> aris is actually more birb then he is willing to admit, which is why dee is able to bribe him with seeds and fruits, he's very easily bribable because it's dee. he puts a lot of trust her because he remembers that she treats him like anyone else. because he doesn't have a high estimation of people or how peple should be treated, he appreciates the casual camraderie and the way she speaks of such morbid topics that he actually looks forward to seeing her. she talks to him ( no one will ever understand more than aris what it's like to be talked at ) and he comes to look forward to sharing his gifts with her.
☠ -> whenever dee doesn't keep in contact, or vice versa, aris does worry, but he also just knows to give dee her space because she has responsibilities and he's not her familiar, just a friend ( not that he knows what this is ), but he's assuming crowding her is gonna make her distance herself and he'd rather that not happen, he cares about her but just because he cares doesn't mean she wouldn't abandon him ( thanks faeryn for the trauma. )
☠ -> he smiles and is at ease with dee, especially when they go and do something spoopy tbh. it's totally his element and just seeing dee enjoy herself ? that's something aris wants to keep stored in his memory. sometimes in his haul, he'll bring whole skulls from random crime scenes that called to him. but mostly shiny baubles, or weapons that he knows she'll be intrigued by.
Send 🌟 for a headcanon about our muses’ relationship. / @caemthe

Hudutsuz Sevda : Season 2 - Quotes
"- You took my money, didn't do the job, and killed my husband. And now you come here without shame and lecture us? (Nedime) - Mrs. Nedime, we don't write destinies. We make inscriptions on tombstones. Not inscriptions on foreheads. As you said, Yahya arranged the shooting, everything necessary was done. Who could have known that your husband would stand in front of his three-day wife and die?" (Musa)
"- Alright. Were they at least detained? (Osman) - They came themselves and said they had nothing to do with it. (Gendarmes) - I told you, Turan, these people will kill someone and then stand in front rows at the funeral." (Osman)
"- What is this girl trying to do? (Halil Ibrahim) - She is trying to earn your forgiveness, brother. What don't you understand? I don't know how you turned away from her, that my sister decided to commit suicide. (Fikret) - And what did you do? You sat and watched your sister commit suicide. (Halil Ibrahim) - I don't know if you will ask for forgiveness or forgive." (Fikret)
"- The elders say that if someone's name spreads quickly, they won't live long. (Halil Ibrahim) - But I realized that your life extends along with your fame, so I decided to meet you. (Iskender) - I would like to say that I know about you too, but you have lived so many years, and I heard your name for the first time this morning. (Halil Ibrahim) - I don't just mean you. Even if Zeynep says she changed her mind, I will hold her accountable. (Iskender) - Get out of here! You came here as guest, I don't want your death to be by my hands! (Halil Ibrahim) - Chasing a woman who is about to get married is not manly." (Iskender)
"- What are we going to do, Sakine? - Nedime, every time you do something alone, in the end, you say: "What are we going to do?" (Sakine)
"- Wait a minute! Wait a minute, Fikret, we are not bribable people. If we were bribable, we would be called Saka, but we are Kika! No one can bribe us! But you can rent us. (Musa) - Since everyone thinks I ordered my husband's murder, now I can kill anyone. (Nedime) - Give the order and we will immediately write the name on the tombstone. Not one person, several. Yahya, do we have enough bullets? (Musa) - We'll find them, brother. (Yahya) - Give the order, ma'am. How and in what way? (Musa) - Some will become victims of accidents. And some will disappear. But neither I nor you will be behind this." (Nedim)
"- I've been slapped so many times by everyone in Karadeniz throughout my life, it wasn't hard. (Halil Ibrahim) - Now you're suffering because you got slapped by the girl you love? (Dervish) - Uncle, it's not about the slap. Zeynep... they want to throw her off a cliff, and she's running there headlong. (Halil Ibrahim) - Halil, you tormented her for 4 months. She begged, cried. But you didn't even look her in the face. And you even walked around with Didem in front of her. Why? She said in court: "I don't know my husband." Did she lie? (Dervish) - Uncle, should I have told her what I couldn't tell anyone? (Halil Ibrahim) - She was your beloved woman. Alright, you gave your word. Do women understand about oaths? Not a single deed done behind one's back is accepted. What was she supposed to do? Was she supposed to wait for you because she gave her word? (Dervish) - Now let her go and watch someone else's path. There is only one path. (Halil Ibrahim) - The path you will take. (Dervish) - Our paths diverged that night, uncle. In the future, she will get a slap too, maybe then she'll come to her senses. (Halil Ibrahim)
"- And seeing the girl in Halil Ibrahim's arms... I had nowhere to go. I decided that at least I would do something useful. (Zeynep) - Listen, Zeynep, you broke something in Halil Ibrahim. I don't know what, but you destroyed something in him. I don't know what you told him that day when you asked us to leave the courtroom. I don't know what, but you destroyed something in him. But Halil Ibrahim not only got a bullet, he also received a very heavy blow from you that day. You know... I also think you know something. But please, could you share it with me already? (Edanur) - I will exercise my right to remain silent because I don't want to betray Halil Ibrahim a second time, Edanur. Neither is Halil Ibrahim now the Halil Ibrahim we knew." (Zeynep)
"- But this stain will never be erased from us. And now, whatever we do, we are forever Kika. (Major Mecnun) - Therefore, it's better for a person to die than to be labeled." (Musa)
"- Daughter, take dinner to brother Fikret. He's like a power keg. Let him not drink on an empty stomach. Then he wakes up with who knows whom." (Nedime)
"- Wow. The lovers have reunited. (Fikret) - Brother, are you okay? (Zeynep) - I can see you are together. I feel much better." (Fikret)
"- We don't write on foreheads, we write on tombstones." (Musa)
"- Yes, we met in a very strange way. (Zeynep) - But even if I saw you in a different setting... I couldn't remain indifferent to you." (Kaan)
"- The only solution to avoid bloodshed is a weeding." (Davut)
"- I just bought something for the evening. (Didem) - It's hard for you too, Didem. You have to constantly see Zeynep. It's not easy to compete with her wardrobe. (Sema) - I'm not competing with anyone, Sema. The main thing is that I please my beloved person. That's enough." (Didem)
"- Ayse, my daughter, I know very well how Iskender deceives people and they end up in prison." (Zuhal)
"- If you're talking about this, as long as I'm alive, I won't let it happen." (Nesim)
"- It's okay, brother, Mrs Nedime is like that, she wants everyone to die, and the three of us to sit here." (Zeynep)
"- Congratulations, you did everything possible and convinced your brother! (Dalma) - I came here because you forced me, brother, I will not wish her happiness!" (Leyla)
"- You'll get used to losing, Iskender, this is just the beginning!" (Halil Ibrahim)
"- Dursun couldn't bear the shame and killed himself. Why are you so surprised by this? Why are you looking for a catch in this? (Nedime) - I don't know if you are aware, but I grew up in this house. Usually in this family, deaths of people are not by their own will." (Zeynep)
"- Over time, a person gets used to the pain of loss." (Fikret)
"- How cold-blooded you are. If only he knew that you planned his father's murder. (Zeynep) - What are you saying, Zeynep? (Halil Ibrahim) - What am I saying? No one here knows you, but I know you very well, Halil Ibrahim. (Zeynep) - If you knew me, you wouldn't have asked in the courtroom, "Who is this man?" (Halil Ibrahim) - But I know you. He knows. If you knew me, you wouldn't have embraced that girl. You wouldn't have put a ring on her finger. (Zeynep) - First, look at your own hand. (Halil Ibrahim) - This is to punish you. I want you to see this every day. You think you're the only person who can make plans, now watch me. When Halil Ibrahim and I got married, my dad also wanted to commit suicide. But he couldn't do it because he loved himself more than his daughter. To get along with me, a person just needs to be honest and decent. I couldn't get along with you either. And I am a very honest and decent person. (Zeynep) - As you said, Zeynep, you couldn't get along with me. (Halil Ibrahim) - Let's see if Didem can get along with you. We'll find out if the problem is with you or with women. Right, Didem? (Zeynep) - Apparently, your chemistry didn't match. (Didem) - Chemistry? Chemistry is important, of course." (Zeynep)
"- Are you okay, Zeynep? (Edanur) - How do you all tolerate this Didem? (Zeynep) - We don't interact with her as often as you do. I don't understand how you constantly manage to run into her. (Edanur) - She thinks she got Halil Ibrahim herself. (Zeynep) - I see, you're going to "bury" Didem. I'm leaving. (Oguz) - And by the way, aren't you ashamed, Oguz? You're so close to him, but you can't tell your friend that she's not right for him. (Zeynep) - Zeynep, we don't have that right concerning Halil Ibrahim. (Oguz) - But he can interfere in all our affairs. Girlfriend, are you angry at Didem or Halil Ibrahim right now? (Edanur) - I want Halil Ibrahim to suffer. But he doesn't love me. I'm trying in vain. (Zeynep) - Doesn't love? He's dying for you, dying. He's dying. (Edanur) - Look at him. Does he look like he's dying, in your opinion?" (Zeynep)
"- You speak well, captain, but we're already disliked, and now they'll call us informers too. (Musa) - I think it's better to be an informer than a disgraceful person, Musa. (Major Mecnun) - Guy, Yahya, since when has being behind someone's back become a good thing? Give it." (Musa)
"- Not everything means money, son. It's time to cause a little pain." (Iskender)
"- It was Zeynep who brought you together with Halil Ibrahim and so on. Why would she try to separate you now? (Esme) - Because Zeynep didn't think that Halil Ibrahim could love me. But when Halil Ibrahim loved me, she went crazy with jealousy. (Didem) - Okay, but Kaan put a ring on Zeynep's finger. If she loved Halil Ibrahim so much, was jealous, why did she get engaged to Kaan? (Esme) - I think she did it on purpose. She tells Halil Ibrahim, leave Didem. (Didem) - Didem, look, I'll tell you something. But don't take it the wrong way. I'll say it to Zeynep's face. (Esme) - Say to Zeynep whatever you want. I tell her directly and what happens? We put a ring on the finger, she's nearby, we have dinner, she's nearby again." (Didem)
"- What's going on, Ayse? What are you doing here, daughter? Did you confuse the houses? (Sakine)
"- Are you mocking me or trying to get money?" (Musa)

He looks so squishable omg LMAO THE HORSE SHIT BUT CLOUDIE IS SUCH A CUTE NAME TOO SJDHSJS this is giving me horse fever
LMAOOO truly the new bar: what tier of cupcakes are they willing to buy if it’s not insanely expensive it’s a no
OHHH ok lowk I don’t think I paid attention to that part of the gameplay in Oras which is probably why I don’t remember LMAO but YES THAT DUDE
HAHAHA it’s ok I laughed at myself it happens too often atp
Pause rough and tumble yuki….rough and tumble yuki??!!! Where was this idea all my life….wait that fr would’ve cooked wtf that would also be sooo interesting to merge tgt with him being religious plus his guilt etc etc the potential….abt to turn yuki into an oc /j
But FR im crying jjk rlly a shit show BUT idk if you saw YUTA CONFIRMED ALIVE WE ALL CHEERED but tbh who really is watching/consuming BLLK for the plot alone let’s be real
NO BECAUSE aiku coming back later on as an addition to the defense lineup or team in general or playing some kinda role Lowk would’ve been a lot more enjoyable for me…like why are you throwing him in with the bllkers NOW (not just because of oaeu has me cracking up) I completely agree like he should’ve left and come BACK LATER I would’ve totally ate up future rival aiku….the potential…alas….
AHAHAHA we’re linked up fr can’t leave out those hair wax jokes but omg him finding reader with Barou’s corpse first has me crying /sad I love how you actually thought out the usability of the teams though because when I played I DEFINITELY just went with whatever pokemon I liked regardless of typing and stats LMAOOK
Karasu screaming at her is so real LMAOA reminds me of him yelling at people during the bowling/Shibuya outing chapter LOL I’m trying to think of a rare water type pokemon but atp I’m just gonna google because I definitely didn’t read the dex entries in depth the first one that comes to mind is feebas though but tbh thats kinda just in the same boat as magikarp so er (clampearl maybe….? Or maybe skrelp idk dragalge seems pretty cool comparatively so) ok wait while I’m looking at water types anyone know the lore behind phione and manaphy why am I just realizing they aren’t related evolution wise pause im now realizing that it didn’t have to be a rare water type which makes more sense i somehow read somewhere that “reader fishes out a rare pokemon (from the sea) and trades that” but if that were the case she could’ve just kept it to fulfill the water type requirement idk what i was thinking going w this uh
REAL the evil govt secretly silencing the voices of anyone who disagrees…guys the world is building fr we just cracked the code behind the champion situation too (reps dad being bribable is so real)
LMFAOOOO IM CRYING “yeah we got bored and went to the moon nbd”
LMAOAO the “i know a guy” trope is so real and so iconic im crying they go find hiori and he’s like “oh yeah my bad that’s my pokemon the size of a small sky scraper she’s harmless” (id imagine its in aurorus form for this to be funny) last time i remember aurorus was from the show and from what I remember of it trying to protect amaura i can also imagine it being protective of hiori and almost freezing mc’s teams asses off LMAOOOO (“it don’t bite” “YES TF IT DO”) you’re getting me too invested in this first it was oaeu now pokemon au i fear this cooks too hard….
You see my first thought was also Barou but for logistical reasons that’s a no here pause gagamaru cooking (literally)!!! Imagine he starts making them just like in the forest or out in the tall grass so people think it’s sketchy (kinda like some food trucks yk) but turns out his stuff is all natural AND fire (ness having low nutrient poffins is so real)
AIKU GARY HAHAHA that just reminds me of Gary’s cheerleaders and the cheer/chant they had for him I’m crying imagine aiku had one
OH SHDGSHSHS I never had an aegislash jn game so that explains why idk the lore LMAO (I did have a friend who swore by it and constantly hyped up its stats though, fr doing like aegislash promotion) Nagiy/ns number one shipper aegislash!!! LMAOO stop this could actually cook as a pokemon anime season wtf someone get game freak and whoever animates pokemon in here rn….reader jumpscaring Nagi in their next battle with aegislash is so funny
I’ll never not be amazed by how much content you can churn out wtf I usually see people writing like three fics just the time you’ve done fifteen and as we’ve already discussed your fics are LONG I’m fr imagining that Justin Bieber gif rn (I’m not even kidding I think of the phrase “doing gods work” and then that gif and audio pop up so congrats you’ve definitely been cemented in with that LMAOO) but SAME love our yap sessions!!
- Karasu anon
RIGHT IT’S LITERALLY PERFECT FOR HIM brooo ponies specifically always have the cutest names…the pony i learned to ride on way back when i was like 11 was named sugar 🥹 and then the ponies i learnt to jump on were named candy and penny like TELL ME THAT’S NOT ADORABLE 😭😭😭 horses usually don’t have such cutesy names sadly but some of them are mad majestic (i’ve known horses named zeus, palermo, arctic, rhea, and heathcliff to name a few like why do they all lowkey have aura)
LMAOO it’ll be the same mfs buying both tiers too like don’t let yourself be treated like the random unnamed girl who got grocery store cookies and was cancelled on so otoya could play video games with reader 😭 only accept the man who plays video games with you so you didn’t walk to his house for nothing and buys you gourmet fancy ass cupcakes for literally no reason 🤩 nah because tbh bfb otoya as a concept cracks me up he’s just so ridiculous with everything he does like there’s zero reason for him to be doing all of that (i remember i kept telling you that karasu’s bfb would be less crack-ish and you were like otoya’s wasn’t that bad?? but now that you’ve read karasu’s version i hope you see what i meant 😩)
rough and tumble yukimiya would’ve been AMAZING…something about how he turned to religion as a way to repent for some of the bullshit he pulled in his childhood + he felt like him getting scouted just for being handsome was so lucky it HAD to be an act of god + him feeling like if he acts out god will punish him (maybe he views his failing eyesight as a punishment for his past sins??) and send him back to where he came from hence his mega kind and polite personality which is a facade for his more selfish NEL personality + him and kaiser getting along because of their backstories but also butting heads because of the diff ways they dealt with things (kaiser forsaking any notion of god to care about himself vs yukimiya trusting anyone BUT himself in search of some kind of solace and reassurance that things will stay as good as they now are) + isagi showing yukimiya another way of being yourself while still not being a bad person and showing that it’s alright to make mistakes (yukimiya perfectionism flaw??) as long as you learn from them…CUT THE CAMERAS DEADASS kaneshiro better give me custody of yukimiya in just three ask responses i’ve taken his canon info and given him a way more compelling and deep backstory that would guarantee him to be a fan favorite 🥱 honestly it’s kind of sad because i could never write this version of yukimiya as he’s just divorced enough from canon that it wouldn’t make sense in a fic but he will ALWAYS be in my mind now i think he’s 1000x more compelling than canon yukimiya without (i believe) compromising his core character traits and in fact actually adding continuity and building off of them (if rough and tumble yukimiya was given enough good panels [which considering he’s in an au with less players and therefore more focus on each character he probably would have a decent amount] he would def have that kaiser vibe to him like i can see him being popular and people posting abt his tragic backstory and how hot he is etc etc)
YESSS YUTA MADE IT lowkey it was so random though like last chapter there was the whole “we need to save okkotsu” cliffhanger and now he’s just here and chilling hello??? also how is HIGURUMA still around 😭 and this shit with the elders and all of that like where did that come from…is gege trying to set up a sequel or smth 🤔 idk i’m very lost i think i just need to see how it ends so i can move on from it for a while
i think aiku as a future rival would’ve cooked so hard maybe he drops some “you guys reminded me what it feels like to have an ego” (as a callback to his striker past) type of line and barou’s like “oh so you have an ego now 🤨 good because that means it’ll be even more fun to crush you 😒” and that specific game is focused on them and their rivalry (it could be a good place to add more barou backstory into the main manga too as well as aiku lore)
i never understood stats or anything but i always took typing seriously!! as well as moves and whatnot (if a move didn’t do damage though i never let my pokémon keep it) RKFHSJSJ no because it’s so sad karasu’s the one who goes back and finds her (after nagi tells him to because at the end it’s nagi and reader before reader goes on alone to fight barou…nagi leaves to evacuate everyone but he’s like “yo karasu please go check on her”) and it’s just her and her houndoom lying with barou and his houndoom (who are both dead UGHHHH the angst is insane)
HELP waits actually yk what’s funny is reader does actually end up with a dragalge on her team so at some point she catches a skrelp ig?? but she doesn’t trade it away (lowkey dragalge isn’t one i’ve put much though into like it and donphan are just kinda there but they don’t yet have the plot relevance that houndoom aegislash gyarados and galvantula do)…HAHAHA yeah she catches a non water type to trade!! i’m thinking it’ll be like a pikachu or something because then everyone reading will be like “oh of COURSE she has a pikachu 🙄🙄🙄” but then she trades it away for a magikarp LDFHSJSKSK anyways yeah if you put manaphy and a ditto in the daycare you’ll get a phione egg!! not sure what the lore connection is but yeah that’s the in game mechanic (i got a manaphy during one of the mystery gift events and i used to spam breed phione’s and put them on the global trade center so people would give me their legendaries in exchange LMAOAAO i was kinda diabolical with it)
no because the world is so deep i’m so invested now!! REO’S DAD BEING CORRUPT AND BRIBABLE JUST MAKES SM SENSE lowkey maybe that’s why reo’s traveling alone/with mc trio instead of training at home with his dad!! like he wants to actually be a proper champion and is too idealistic to realize the government will never let him do that with that mindset…okay wait and instead of going the stereotypical route maybe reader defeating barou and the evil team isn’t enough for them to fix things because the root of the problem (the government) hasn’t been fixed so then in order to get justice for barou she’s like “well ig i have all 8 badges” so she (along with nagi as her rival, tullia who’s just been doing random shit this whole time and has the team for it, and reo who wants to be champion for a diff reason) decides to join the championship conference and makes it through until the end (again considering galvantula alone swept through half of barou’s team it’ll make sense) where she’s told by the government that she has to throw the match and she seems to agree (unlike barou) but then instead of doing that she beats mr mikage and exposes the government on live tv before they can cut the cameras…and then the gym leaders + elite four + elite four candidates (isagi kaiser bachira kunigami) are like “aight might as well” and reveal they’ve been planning a mutiny against the government for a WHILE (another reason why isagi is always so secretive around them) and barou was involved too but it wasn’t supposed to happen for a while however with reader’s actions they decide there’s no time like the present and execute a (much better planned) mutiny while reader and co + mc trio watch in awe (you KNOW karasu is so mad yayoi never mentioned anything to him) so it kind of avoids that “kids doing everything while incompetent adults just sit around” trope while still having reader and co + mc trio be integral parts of the ending??
HAHAHA mc trio could have their own spinoff fr…episode nagi pokémon au KFJDJD they randomly find a crashed spaceship full of clefairy and clefables and somehow chigiri and/or reo are revealed to have mechanical expertise?? plus nagi’s just randomly a genius fsr so they manage to fix up the spaceship so the clefairy and clefable can go back to the moon (lowkey i think smth like this happens in one of the original eps of the anime but it’s bllk au so it’s funnier) and they leave an egg with nagi as thanks (specifically nagi because according to reo’s [at the time] kirlia they like his hair as it reminds them of the moon even though lowkey nagi did the least for them) or like do you remember that one episode where it was like a competition for only fighting type pokémon?? imagine reo has been SET on evolving his kirlia into a gardevoir but when he hears about the competition he’s like “time to switch gears” and while reader and co are having the fossil arc with hiori, mc trio is just running around completing various side quests trying to find a dawn stone so reo can evolve kirlia into a gallade instead…bonus points if reo misses the registration date because he doesn’t find the dawn stone in time so now he just randomly has a gallade (who he loves very much don’t get me wrong LMAOOO he was just building his team around eventually having a gardevoir and now he has to switch stuff up)
HELPPP because okay realistically hiori’s team is super super intimidating if you think about it…like you look at him and he seems so sweet you think he’d have a team like otoya’s (#otoyaslander) and then he releases his first pokémon and it’s a metagross 😭 his pokémon are def all super protective of him too…they probably HATE reader in particular because between donphan and galvantula (aka the goat…lowkey i’m surprised at how much it actually carries every confrontation) alone she’s destroying his team 😩 considering donphan is a ground type so it’s strong against aurorus and luxray, galvantula is bug-electric so it’s strong against metagross (psychic is weak to bug apparently??), swanna, and kingdra, so that only leaves nidoqueen with a type advantage…until you factor in that gyarados is not only a water type (so strong against her ground typing) but also flying so it’s immune to her ground type attacks 😭 and this is completely ignoring houndoom who is metagross’s perfect counter, aegislash if she has it at that point, and dragalge 😰 it took me so long picking a team with type coverage for basically every type but i’m still always amazed whenever i match reader up against other characters and realize she absolutely cooks them
HELPPPP GAGAMARU AS A POFFIN FOOD TRUCK WORKER IS SO REAL i can see him having an ursaring and they just drive around selling poffins and he doesn’t have a phone number or anything so if you want them you have to hunt him down 😭 the REAL reason yukimiya has an alakazam is so he can just teleport LMAOAO meanwhile reader and co have to fly on flying pokémon (reader and tullia borrow karasu’s and otoya uses his altaria) to find him wherever he is if they need him
nah because you’re so right aegislash has to be a shipper there’s 0 reason for it to throw the romance subplot in except for some drama JFKSKS to be fair it was probably rlly bored while waiting for a trainer to show up 😭 it’s kind of rude even once it’s captured but then houndoom beats it up and it behaves after that 🤩 no fr it’s a role reversal of the cleffa incident like reader and nagi both pull up with new pokémon and nagi throws out his cottonee (side note but cottonee/whimsicott is such a peak nagi pokémon tbh) meanwhile reader whips out her aegislash and nagi’s just like WHAT THE FUCK (reo and chigiri are just like “😃❔” because they have no clue why nagi’s tripping meanwhile nagi’s trying to process that he did in fact have an isekai romance arc with reader and now he has to face her after he literally asked if it’s okay for him to rizz her up “for the plot” when she’s dating karasu (she is NOT dating karasu) (karasu has no idea why nagi keeps looking at him awkwardly) (tullia and otoya ask chigiri and reo if nagi is into men/karasu) (chigiri and reo can honestly say they have 0 idea)
HAHAHA no it’s not even just 15 since may because that’s not counting the jjk requests i got OR anything i wrote for myself (both versions of bfb, freaky friday, hollyhock and peregrine chapters) i fear i am quite prolific in the summer…fall is always lowkey the mira hiatus era where i rlly slow down and then suddenly come december i go crazy and cook until the next fall

So the next question is how many judges CDs cases. Who is friends with who and who is bribable. Of course not because we want to bribe anyone. But Patsy will. Or Bob. And Patsy knows she can out bribe me. And I know that. So I need to avoid that situation. If everybody is in Bob's pocket then I'll just sign this and move forward

He's trying to get a handle on her, but he's struggling to parse the fiction versus reality and why she thinks the way she does. Gavrel is easier, simply because, for all that he came from America, he really does think an awful lot like a Terran these days.
He's got some Thoughts about it, mostly how Atticus might be bribable with knowledge of healing from Doc or how giving him commands to take care of himself, especially if he doesn't know that's what it's for, might work. (Mmmm....good luck? Gavrel wants Morwen happy and safe, but he'll take safe over happy, and that means he can never sleep again ever. Obviously.)
(are Gavrel and Furniture Man just spectating the argument at this point?) He blushes a touch at that and looks away. "Being Archmage doesn't change the fact that I'm not someone you should be worried about." (Gavrel is trying very hard not to spectate, and Furniture Man looks like he's gathering ammunition.)
Was the ammunition to use on Morwen, the boys, or all of the above?
Mostly against Atticus. A little against Morwen. Well, maybe not against Morwen? More understanding her better than looking for stuff to use against her directly. But it is specifically so Furniture Man can properly manipulate Atticus into behaving for medical care if he needs to. And Gavrel to a lesser extent.

If the other minions are still involved because they are part of the prophecy, then is Luigi still relevant as well? Would Mr. L exist in this AU or would Dimentio do something different?
THIS IS TRICKY!!
Mr L would NOT exist...probably. He might, against Dimentio's will.
so the way Count Bleck was running things was pretty haphazard. he was following the recipe given to him by the Dark Prog, but he didn't really care how things turned out. He'd sort of mentally given up, which is why by chapter 6 when Mimi and Mr L went AWOL he was just like "hm. ok."
If that happened in THIS scenario Dimentio would flip the fuck out, because there is NO ROOM for error (in his opinion). So a couple things would immediately be different following the prologue:
Peach nor Bowser would not have been allowed to leave the castle to join Mario
Luigi would not be allowed to have ANY free will once it becomes apparent he's the "man in green". He still has a degree of free will under Nastasia's hypnosis, so Dimentio would sprout him ASAP.
so the issue then becomes: how easily can Blumiere and Nastasia fuck things up for Dimentio? the sprouts can obviously be REMOVED. They can smuggle Luigi away from the castle. They can hypnotize him to gtfo even if he wouldn't want to leave Peach behind.
Luigi becomes the center of a game of tug-of-war. How many times does Blumiere steal him away from the castle only for Dimentio to duly go after him? It's hard to keep Dimentio away from things when he can literally go wherever tf he wants. ...Or does Luigi just stay in the castle and Blumiere is like "hey please don't destroy the world" and Luigi is just "....ok? i didn't have plans to??" and Dimentio glares at him like "oh yes you fucking do, let me tell you why"

Because something superhero comics, noir, and fanfic all have in common is leaning into soap opera convolutedness, @alexmaybe & I have come up with the Bruce Wayne Spawn Shell Game AU, in which the middle kids are all biologically Bruce’s.
(Dick really is John & Mary Grayson’s, and Damian is Talia’s direct clone.)
No one finds this out until Batman!Bruce & Robin!Damian are fighting a magic user who has heard rumors that Robin is Batman’s son (rumors started by Damian’s not so quiet comments about being The Blood Son). The mage gloats that they’re going to use a “teleport everyone with X trait to me” spell to yank Robin over, and use the disorientation of teleportation to take him hostage. “I will summon Batman’s direct blood descendents! Mwa ha ha ha!”
Cue Damian staying firmly at Bruce’s side, while Cass in street wear with bubble tea, Jason doing gear maintenance, a random college student studying for exams, and Tim in his pajamas pop out of the ether all within a yard of the mage.
The mage regrets their life choices.
~
Now, how did we get here?
Firstly, during the years Bruce is doing his world tour of Learning Batman Skills while still swinging in and out of Gotham, Bruce is seeking physical activity to make his brain shut up, and also seeking intimacy but keeping too many secrets to let himself actually get close to people, so he is sleeping with Even More People Than In His Batman Years. He remembers condoms but always doesn’t use them perfectly.
Bruce meets Sandra & Carolyn Wu-San at their dojo in Brooklyn. Some time later when David Cain coerces Sandra into reproductive sex, she seeks out every male martial artist she vaguely respected or thought had potential to sleep with them too as a Fuck You to undermine Cain’s scheme without openly breaking their deal.
Bruce has a one-night stand with pre-transition Willis Todd, both of them just giving their first (legal) name, no contact info. Figuring out several months later that he’s pregnant but no clue how to find the other father, Willis, who does want kids someday, weighs the pros and cons of “having trouble making ends meet right now, can I support a kid?” with “everyone says pregnancy would be harder later in transition,” and opts to have Jason now.
Sheila Haywood is either a friend or a bribable hospital worker (or both) who agrees to put her name down as the mom so Willis can legally be his kid’s dad without any complicated paperwork. Willis and Catherine never got around to telling Jason before both of them died. When Jason showed up at the camp thinking Sheila was his bio-mom she rolled with it, figuring she could get details of why he thought that later, and then unfortunately [canon ensued].
It won’t be until the spell incident happens that Bruce puts together one night stand Wilhelmina with Why do the pictures of Willis Todd look kinda familiar? Because he definitely never slept with Catherine or Sheila.
Bruce meets, befriends and sleeps with Janet Drake while going on an archaeological research binge. He’s also still having a lot of random bar and nightclub hook-ups.
Some months later, while Jack is out of town on a business trip, Janet complains to Bruce that Jack really wants a son, but the latest ultrasound shows a female fetus. Janet really doesn’t want to deal with pregnancy ever again, but Jack isn’t open to adoption, and ugh if only Janet could just swap this one for a male infant. It would be so easy to nudge Jack into an archeology dig closer to the due date, he’d never have to know!
(No, neither Bruce nor Janet have thought maybe Bruce got Janet pregnant instead of Jack.)
“You’ve got this knack for finding odd things at just the right moment, Brucie…”
Janet knows it’s a long shot, and dubiously ethical because adoption records exist for good reason, and if they can’t find a baby that works she’ll just have to dig her heels in with Jack against trying for a son, but if Bruce could find a baby…
Bruce makes no promises other than keeping an eye and ear out.
Anyway, Bruce isn’t Batman yet, but he’s home between tutors on his World Tour and venturing into the city in various disguises to learn more about Gotham’s underworld, and getting into trouble. So it is Bruce Wayne with a fresh concussion, not a drunk Brucie, who stumbles into an alley to vomit and finds a baby in a dumpster.
It’s a very full dumpster, one half of the lid broken off. An orange cat (who may or may not be Teekl returning a future favor) is curled around the newborn baby boy. The infant has a shock of hair as dark as Janet’s.
Concussed Bruce walks all the way to the Drake townhouse marveling at the tiny hand gripping his finger so tight.
Janet schedules a C-section. Bruce forges Timothy Jackson Drake’s birth certificate and arranges the adoption of Janet’s daughter by a family in Oregon. He keeps tabs on them over the years, preparing a Wayne Foundation scholarship to the college of her choice someday.
~
Back to the magic incident: Nightwing and Batwoman were on their way there as back-up when the mage cast the summoning spell, so Dick is able to hug Damian as the kid bluescreens about Not Being The Blood Son.
Bruce awkwardly explains that yes, he ran Damian’s DNA when Talia dropped him off, but when he realized Damian was Talia’s direct clone, he also realized Talia was taking steps to ensure her child escaped the League of Assassins, by attaching him to one of the few people on the planet who can go toe to toe with (and even defeat) her father. Bruce opted to go along with Talia’s choice.
Kate has gotten popcorn from somewhere, munching on it while Bruce desperately thinks back to his Mega Ho Years to figure out how everyone else happened.
Cass is feeling a vindictive sort of smugness about not being David Cain’s bio-kid. He’s still her dad, but he only got part of what he wanted from Shiva.
Jason is pissed at Bruce for not figuring it out earlier, but kinda relieved that Sheila wasn't actually his mom.
The freshman college student from Oregon is really annoyed, she was at study group and she CANNOT fail this class!!! Now she’s on the entire opposite coast???
Tim is having some feelings about how fucking soap opera his origins turn out to be. Bruce slept with his mom Janet, but also she wasn’t his birth mom, he was adopted and no one told him??? Who the heck is his other birth parent??? What were the odds of his apparent bio-parent Bruce being the one to find him??? Wait, was finding baby Tim in a dumpster why younger!Bruce suddenly had Wayne Enterprises put money into improving and proliferating Safe Drop-Off Sites in Gotham???
(He is Not Thinking About his complicated relationship with Jack.)
~
Tim, when things are just starting to quiet down: “Wait, so does Talia have XY chromosomes, or does Damian have XX? Because I’ve done a lot of of cloning lab work, and—”
Damian: “Don’t talk about my mother’s chromosomes, dumpster baby.”
Tim: >:(
Bruce, very tired: “Damian, don’t call your brother a dumpster baby.”
Damian, indignant: “But you just told us you found him in a dumpster as an infant!”
Freshman college student: “Dude, it’s still fucking rude? Like how would you like being called a test tube baby?”
Damian: /draws sword/
Dick, pushing sword back into sheath: “No drawing weapons on civilians. Or calling Tim rude things. Tim, I think any chromosome questions are Talia and Damian’s personal medical business, so please don’t speculate on them.”
Tim, sarcastically: “Sorry, I forgot medical privacy exists after how you all reacted to the spleen thing.”
Freshman college student: “Spleen thing?”
Tim: “Don’t worry, it’s not genetic. Speaking of, B, you’re gonna have to update, like, all our medical history now.”
Bruce, even more tired: "Hn."

Love your stories so much.... Can I have more of the Sophie taking Benedict's virginity and him wanting to marry her while Kate tries to hide her AU.... I can't get it out of my head... You have brilliant creativity.
You know I might actually write this and post it one day. I'm going to call it 'Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss' Kate, Sophie and Penelope's comedy of errors during one unfortunate house party
Whereas Kathani Sharma attempts to gaslight Viscount Bridgerton into beleiving that
1) No such girl named Sophie took his Brother's Virginity
2) Sophie Gunningworth doesn't exist, and that her suspicious maid Sophie Beckett, is not in fact the daughter of an Earl wearing a maid's clothes
3) that Kate has not kissed him repeatedly in the library to keep him from asking more questions about Sophie. Because really to imagine someone like Kate pushing him against a bookcase and kissing him like Sophie's life depends on it? honesty that sounds like a crazy story, Viscount Bridgerton must have been quite in his cups
4) that Kate did not show him her decolletage to distract him from seeing Sophie hiding in her room and that the subsequent hickeys of that encounter are simply allegic reactions to Kate's cosmetics. Because if Viscount Bridgerton had in fact seen Kate's breasts and done unspeakable things to her, then that would be scandalous and wrong and he obviously imagined it and she can't believe he would go so far as to fantasize about something that never happened. Kate Sharma will not stay here to encourage the delusions of Viscount Bridgerton's senile old head. His imagination and delusions of kissing and seducing Kate in the library are too wild. really.
Sophie, will continue to gatekeep to death, avoiding Benedict's attempts at finding her, because she absolutely doesn't want to get married and he's out there carrying her glove and proclaiming she's his one true love. When Sophie just wanted to have a hot night with a handsome lover. No ammout of good intentions in bed are worth losing her inheritance to Araminta if she marries before she's a spinster. Also Sophie came out to have fun and now she's feeling so attacked. Was she really that good at taking his virginity that he's so obsessed now??? #VirginGate
And finally Penelope is encouraged (tricked and ambushed more likely) by Sophie and Kate into well.. girlbossing her way into becoming the center of attention of the ton... and making Colin Bridgerton explode in jealousy (did we mention he's back from Italy?) . Because apparently if Anthony and Benedict are trying to keep Colin from killing every man who looks at Penelope's plump kissable lips for too long. Then they will be too distracted to notice Kate sneaking Sophie back to her father in London with the nearest bribable carriage available. Yup! Penelope's job is to drive Colin crazy. Then of course said mad idiot will become a nuisance to his brothers in an attempt to deny his feelings for Penelope. And Sophie and Kate will be free to avoid the Viscount and the not-virgin for the rest of the house party
Tumblr media
Their plans will not backfire. At all
You know maybe I will write it this weekend. Who knows.

Oh, just thought of something! In Syzygy in Dedication, is officer Cafaro also an informant for the gang? Because if she is, then ooooof, I can see that being quite a discouraging blow towards Eclipse. As a Chief he seems the type to take care of his officers and if this version of him values loyalty as much too, then the fact that an officer he trusted as part of his force would do this right under his nose, and also that it went unnoticed by him for so long and thus probably endangering a lot of his underlings could bring so many feelings of guilt and dishearten him. He’s already so tired doing his best, and yet another wrench is thrown at his attempts to help against the corruption of the city. D:
Officer Cafaro actually works undercover! Eclipse thoroughly cleaned out the department when he became chief as he has zero tolerance for any double agents or anyone who's bribable. Cafaro is a trusted, loyal officer under Eclipse, and she will be part of how Eclipse finds the detective while they're held captive by the mob bosses!

 im making bad decisions so buckle in.
A Non-Comprehensive List of Fun or Speculatory Milgram What If’s/Character Beliefs
i would like to credit @abyssalressentiment for helping build off or just listening to some of the more non-sense ones. also I’m [read more]ing this after Yuno’s.
Note: This was all made based only on the videos on the official youtube channel and some of their comments. If contradictory evidence is found in their drama’s or q&a’s, I have not read them and am not aware of it.
Haruka
he’s perfect, he’s diseased, he’s got nothing right going on and i want to see what he fucks up next.
Es is channeling my energy when they tell Haruka to try murdering them. let us fall together hand in unlovable hand :heart_eyes:
i’m literally so entrapped by the imagery in his mv’s that i cannot focus on theories. i’ve voting without logic for this one, girlies.
Yuno
i don’t actually have a lot of thoughts about Yuno, but i am very compelled by zenchizennou’s analysis on umbilical (link is to the post)
my takes are gonna be v pedestrian, lining up with a lot of others. compensated dating, an unexpected pregnancy, maybe a botched extortion either on her side or by someone who discovered her afterschool job, or maybe a bad client idk.
Fuuta
i wanna bully him so badly,,, he kinda deserves it,,,
okay, he is another one i have very little on because i completely misread his mv, initially. i thought he was so terminally online he deluded himself into seeing game overlays, and was in a fit of disconnect when he murder someone. i know, not even close to reality.
he’s just, so straight forward? and honestly, the guilty verdict was a better choice 1st round, cause i don’t doubt he’d have joined Kotoko in beating people up, or maneuvered her to better beat people up, if voted innocent.
Mu
i will say it now, if Mu doesn’t wow me with her second song, i’m going to vote her guilty.
crazy theory that makes no sense, incoming: what if Mu’s song isn’t chronological? what if she was bullied after she murdered the girl, and everyone knows she murdered that girl, but Mu didn’t get charged because we all know police forces be corrupt af and highly bribable.
listening to Es’s version of Afterpain really shows how Mu is twisting her words. as i’ve seen someone say before, she says sorry so you’re obligated to forgive her. if you don’t, she tried, you’re the one who won’t accept it. can’t you see that Mu is the one really in pain? despicable (mildly impressed)
Shidou
probably worked in palliative care, facing the stress and tears and anger of everyone he had to break the bad news to, until it got too much, of watching everyone he took care of fading and suffering and dying before his eyes until it got too much and he took drastic measures as...
an angel of death. maybe it started out as a genuine thing, where he would offer the service to terminal patients, but then snowballed until he would do it as punishment or just because, or maybe it was always retalitory because of the stress caused by dealing with patients families. i really can’t stop thinking about the dude whos DABDA reaction was Anger, at Kirisaki-sensei... okay no calling Shidou that sounds weird af. back to informality.
Japan doesn’t have any formal euthenasia laws, and the two doctors who were tried for it, one case passive (i.e. cutting off life support) one active (i.e. injection), were both found guilty of having caused death, so no matter why or how he did it Shidou would probably be a murderer for it.
i also think he engages in illegal organ harvesting, but in a way that, once you die he’ll harvest any viable organs regardless of your donor status card.
he also gives me the vibes of knowing he’s wrong, but either knowing he can’t stop, or fearing he can’t stop, which is why he wants to be found guilty.
Mahiru
i think her relationship was abusive on both sides. her reaction to the guilty verdict does not... make me feel comfortable. it’s not like Amane’s where she fell further into her beliefs, at least not in the same sense, but... she was treated cruelly and is reaffirming her love.
this is the easist for a q&a, or voice line, to contest, but it makes sense for why she was in the birdcage too, if she was in a physically abusive relationship.
Kazui
i have, what i like to refer to as my “apropose of canon” what if of, what if Kazui is a professional killer (maybe a honeypot *wink wonk*), and Hinako was originally supposed to be his target but then he fell in love. this has no reason except “professional killer au romance story”
Amane
there was never a right choice during her first vote. if we voted “innocent”, it would re-affirm the teachings instilled in her, when we voted “guilty” we subjected her to the same torment her ‘guardians’ probably did.
so her lines during the lineup in Undercover confirmed two things for me. 1) her cult’s faith healing was most likely a two sided belief thing, both the healer and the healed must believe for it to work. pretty standard typical stuff. 2) a broken promise is only logically followed by death. “cross my heart and hope to die” stuff.
the brainwashing really got her... i hope she gets help, and also doesn’t murder Shidou. please don’t kill Shidou, Amane. if you do Kotoko’s gonna murder someone for real and i have hope for her.
Mikoto
amazing what if: Mikoto’s DID affects the MV’s, not to a major extent, but to the extent that he (or rather, one of his alters) is aware of what’s happening. my bet’s on Green, but Red could be a possibility. Jackalope did say he doesn’t know how DID will affect Milgram.
piggybacking off of the theories that Mikoto has two alters, identifiable by a Red tint and Green tint, as opposed to the core’s blue tint, and will be refered to by colours as opposed to Blue who as the (presumed) core will just be called Mikoto, i will point out something that is very obvious, and probably not something ground breaking.
RGB is the colour spectrum used in light, maybe meaning that if we want to really see Mikoto for all he is, we need to consider every part of him as him. you must consider all motives, regardless of which part of him hosts them, with out that you have a tinted view, and if you don’t consider any of them, you’ve black out your sight.
adding a caveat that i do not have any formal learning in regards to DID and any observations i make are to be taken with a grain of salt and are not meant to offend.
Kotoko
another i am voting guilty, because hoo boy. i admit i may be slightly trying to play 5D chess to have the most people survive, but this is also because she needs humility, just like how Fuuta needs it.
both Ace and I agree that Kotoko didn’t attack Amane cause she either has a soft spot for kids, or sees Amane as the product of corruption rather than a cause of it, like the other three guilty verdicts.
also, meaning to be bi, hO BOY. only the fact that she would stomp me to death with her doc martins is keeping me sane.

Top Ten Best Rivers in America to Wash your Meatballs In
These rivers are perfect for all lovers of meatball washing.
10. The Delaware River
The cool, silky tides of the delaware river will provide that your meatballs are squeaky clean in no time. It is the perfect place to wash your meatballs in on a hot, summer afternoon.
9. Rio Grande
Perfect for all you power washers out there, the Rio grande river is best for those who love a little thrill being added to their meatball washing. It may not be the most careful of meatball washings, but the Rio grande rapids are certainly the quickest.
8. The Hudson River
Maybe you don’t want a big, roaring river. Maybe, instead you want a river that is more like a giant bowl for mother natures vomit when shes sick. The Hudson River is that exact thing. It smells and tastes like Satans piss after he eats asparagus, and that’s why it’s one of the best for meatball cleaning.
7. The River Styx
Not only will the river styx clean all of the dirt and grim off of your meatball, but it will also clean off all the sins of your meatballs as well. And we all know that meatballs sure do sin a lot. Every meatball is absolutely chock full of sin.
8. A Small Stream located outside of Frederick town, Ohio
This small stream is located in a far off, secluded woodland area. And that’s why its the perfect river to wash your meatballs in while on the run from the F.B.I. The FBI will never take your meatballs alive. That’s because your meatballs are all ready dead. They are dead cows.
5. The River from the Talking Heads Song
Any river good enough for David Bryne is good enough for your meatballs. That’s because David Bryne is practically a meatball himself. In fact, the national society of meatballs nominated him as being an honorary meatball in 1645.
4. The River Archeron
The river archeron is filled to the brim with the souls of the dead. They will gladly lick your meatballs clean till they are nothing but shiny orbs of meat that shine like dirt that just so happens to be very shiny.
2. The Girl named River From Firefly
The girl from firefly is very nice and easily bribable. Simply give her all of your money. She will then disappear for 6 months and bever return. At some point, your meatball will appear at your doorstep. It will be a hundred times more flithy. You will have neither gained nor learned anything from this experience. 
1. The Colorado River
The Colorado River is more than just a river. It’s an experience. It has water, and yet it does not. It contains things like fish, and mud, and large bunches of river snake and yet, they are so much more than that. They are all beautiful. If the Colorado River was a laundry machine then it would be Oprahs washing machine, and that’s fantastic. I wish I could marry the Colorado river, but alas, it has put a restrainment order on me.

WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH MISS S | 旗袍美探
OKAY FINALLY ANOTHER REPUBLICAN ERA DETECTIVE SHOW THAT LOOKS FUN AF AND HAS ALL THE NICE COSTUMES IN IT!!!
Summary: Su Wenli is a rich af lady that just returned from Paris in the first episode, and she chances upon a mystery immediately at the docks where she meets Luo Qiuheng, the cool-headed, tall, handsome af lead detective at the central police station (there’s a name for this, but I can’t remember). Her inquisitive nature leads her to butt into like the case immediately, and throughout all the cases she and LQH fall in love!!! Despite LQH going like “why is she here again” for the first few episodes.
Subplot: Su Wenli’s younger sister disappeared 20 years ago, and the man suspected of the crime was put in prison but no body was ever found so he’s also trying to appeal to get out after so many years, so I guess they’ll find out what happened to her sister.
Where to watch: NO SUBS - Duboku.co and any other Chinese streaming sites tbh, I’d recommend kankanwu but a user told me it’s a problematic site for them so do proceed with caution as always | SUBS - WeTV I suspect has it because the official platform for the show is Tencent
Broadcast schedule: 34 episodes, APPARENTLY 2 episodes daily from Sundays to Fridays, 1 episode on Saturdays 
Here are the pros of the show:
A+++++ COSTUMES!!! AND SETS! Okay not gonna lie the CGI is a little off at some parts BUT the costumes are frickin lovely. SWL (Miss S) rocks both European-style and Chinese-style outfits, and she has ALL THE HATS, ALL THE DRESSES, and gosh when she’s in the qipao even LQH is like whoa wow what a goddess (not that he says it but he’s a little dazed for a bit) - She has a GORGEOUS BLUE CAPE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO STEAL!!!
The cases aren’t overly complicated and it’s pretty easy to guess who the possible murderers can be, but we’re in this for more than just the cases
GAO WEI GUANG!!! Jfc, my Dijun is back!!!! And he’s got that cool, cold, stoic feel about him BUT he’s totally bribable with delicious sweets!!!
Ma Yili who plays Miss S is gorgeous as well, that short hair cut?!!! That hair pin?!! The way she walks?! The way she talks?! She’s a soft, shameless woman and I LOVE THAT.
GWG and MYL have chemistry in this one.
The camera work is hilarious?!! Usually I hate the cliche romance movements like bridal-style lifting at inopportune times but THIS ONE THE TIMING IS HILARIOUS, SPOT ON, and very romantic
There’s a gay couple in the episode 5 case and they’re being blackmailed but they’re kind of out which is pretty amazing considering the Republican era XD
CHARACTERS!!!
SU WENLI - GORGEOUS, RICH SUGAR MOM (IDEK WHERE HE MONEY COMES FROM IT SEEMS LIKE SHE PRINTS THEM OUT OF THIN AIR)
Tumblr media
Honestly, she’s been back a total of like less than a week before she adopts THREE PEOPLE. A servant from the family where the first murder happened at, and two young men who were about to make trouble but were accosted (hired) by her as her chauffeurs. She’s shameless, knows exactly how to pout and bribe to get her way, is sassy and takes no nonsense I LOVE IT and she has LQH wrapped around her finger
Within five episodes she has:
1. Adopted cute little Tao Zi as her assistant who now lives in her luxurious house with her 2. Adopted the two young men as her legit chauffeurs and also informants, giving them A MERCEDES BENZ FOR THEIR GOOD WORK ON THE FIRST CASE 3. LITERALLY ADOPTED a young girl who was a suspect in the second case 4. Moved into a mansion that looks like a frickin palace!!! 5. Kidnapped two suspects from LQH and raced LQH in her brand new sports car back to the city, leaving LQH and his old car in the dust
And look at her gorgeous outfits and hats?!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
AND THIS CAPE?!!!
Tumblr media
LUO QIUHENG (Aloof, stoic, rational detective who has a sweet tooth and is obviously not immune to SWL’s charms)
Tumblr media
GOSHHHH MY DIJUN!!! I love him in this one too, he’s all “you shouldn’t be here”, “you’re not the only smart one here”, “be good and don’t intervene on the investigation” but then SWL bribes him continuously with sweets and it’s amazing to watch!!! He threatens to arrest her all the time (and she kind of is arrested once) but he always sounds worried about her. Everytime he finds her in trouble he’ll LITERALLY PICK HER UP IN BRIDAL CARRY HAHAHA and he’s half resigned, half exasperated and a whole lot fond of this Miss S I AM TELLING YOU!!!
Tumblr media
GWG in a leather jacket is a crime!!!
Tumblr media
Him eating something that Wenli gave him:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And his brain cannot fathom her wealth, but I don’t blame him, I can’t fathom her wealth either. This is when he asks the single butler Xiang Shu if it’s tiring for him to clean up such a huge place on his own and he says, “Someone else does the cleaning. Me don’t clean.”
Cue LQH going ????:
Tumblr media
Other characters include Tao Zi, SWL’s cute assistant WHO HAS A CRUSH ON LQH’S DEPUTY OFFICER SHEN, and Officer Shen likes her too AND BOTH LQH and SWL try to matchmake them and give them (misplaced) advice
Ahhhh this show is honestly amazing and the humour is right on point!!! I’d watch Gao Weiguang in anything but REPUBLICAN ERA DETECTIVE IN SHANGHAI?! Sign me up!

The Villainous Paranoiac Did Not Ask to be a Senpai
It’s been maybe two weeks since you woke up with a blade to your throat in a strange, ninja-and-pirate themed afterlife, and then woke up in a maximum security prison the next day. On the third day, thankfully, you woke up again in your bed in Ramshackle dorm with Grim snoring beside you.
There was even a surplus of food in the fridge and pantry, and some recipes for it in one of your notebooks, which you appreciated.
After three days, you let your guard down enough to assume you weren’t going to travel to anywhere else in your sleep and began to work on your essay for Professor Trein again.
On the seventh day, however, you woke up to an attempting smothering that was only foiled by Grim screaming and a second preteen tackling your would-be murderer off of you.
You then had to separate the two brown-haired children who were fighting on your bedroom floor and looking more and more like they would actually kill each other with every blow.
You got a broken nose for your trouble.
That was how you met the two brats who you temporarily swapped places with, and who are currently living in your dorm with you as “hopeful potential students” as the birdbrain headmaster put it.
It’s clearly just a clever way for the dumb bird to avoid taking direct responsibility for the lives of under sixteen years olds. If they die from a magic mishap or getting squashed by an overblot, he can pin the blame on your incompetence instead of the school’s.
Joy.
Epel’s still sulking about you “swiping his kohai” from him. Vil-senpai acts as if he doesn’t care, but the number of times he’s dropped by to complain about your standards of beauty care begs to differ.
Honestly, they and Pomefiore can have Nana if they want him so badly... is what you would say if Crowley weren’t increasing your funding per temporary occupant. You were quite pleased with negotiating that, as previously the birdbrain acted like he expected you to somehow feed two growing children plus yourself and Grim on just your paltry allowance.
Grim and the ghosts would be glad to see the British boy who introduced himself to you as “Johnny-Powers-but-call-me-Nana” gone in spite of the added money. They’ve made sure to tell you so, multiple times.
Even without hearing about how well he played ghost exterminator first time he was here, you can kind of understand what they’re talking about. That kid can go from homicidal to ingratiating so fast it feels like you’ll get whiplash, and he’s disturbingly quick to bring up maiming as a solution to your problems. You attribute this to him being an incarcerated thirteen-year-old gang leader in addition to a model Pomefiore student and resolve to keep him as far away from Octavinelle as humanly possible.
He and Leech-senpai would either give each other ideas, or he’d overthrow Ashengrotto-senpai and have him served as calamari by the end of the week.
You quite like Ashengrotto-senpai where he is, whole and healthy, so you stay vigilant.
At least he can speak Japanese well enough despite being a foreigner, and does his share of the chores around the dorm without complaining. You’ve even caught him doing Grim’s share with no fuss, because of the sudden increase in quality of the finished job. He responds well to praise and is very bribable with chocolate, which makes your life a lot easier in many circumstances.
Now if you can just find him a good child psychologist for all the issues he clearly has, Nana might make a passable dorm-mate.
You’d keep Mayu in a heartbeat though, even without the added benefit of payment.
Ketsugi Mayu’s an absolute sweetheart, if a bit on the... straightforward side, to put it nicely. She’s an amazing cook, able to create feasts out of the barest essentials and haggle with Sam to get groceries for a much lower price that you’re able to. You’re not sure if you’ve ever eaten better. If not for how clearly homesick she is and the fact that her mother terrifies you, you’d offer to let her stay here forever.
Of course that’s not to say the kid doesn’t have some quirks. She keeps making odd remarks like, “it feels weird to be watched only some of the time” and “oh right, you have lawyers here” that make you very concerned about the ninja afterlife she was in. And a bit about the place you’re currently living in.
She’s also obsessed with this one comic about pirates to the point where she puts Shroud-senpai’s fixations to shame, claiming she wants to become a pirate chef when she grows up and praying to the main characters. This has given her one of the weirdest moral compasses you’ve ever seen, which treats theft as an excusable offense but wasting food as a crime that she needs to go and beat up people for.
This would be less of a problem if the child wasn’t strong enough to break bones.
You’ve had to break up more fights for her than you have for Nana honestly, just because she’d spotted someone throwing something away half-eaten in the cafeteria and quietly made a beeline for them before you wised up to her shenanigans.
Nana was no help on that front because he immediately tried to join in, only to play innocent bystander the moment the teachers and dorm leaders came.
The fact that her mindset has a lot in common with Deuce’s and Kalim’s is just the cherry on top of the problem sundae. Ace and several other students have already tried to con her into giving them free food, because apparently this child thinks it is her gods-given mission to feed the world’s hungry.
Which is noble and all, unless you don’t have a lot of food that you can afford to share around in the first place. Especially not to greedy freeloaders who call themselves your friends and claim to want to test Mayu’s gullibility “for her own good”. Grim’s perpetually rumbling stomach and puppy-eyes have been some of your best allies in thwarting these attempts.
At least your guests get along with each other after their rocky start.
After a few days of him refusing to eat anything on his plate unless Mayu or you had eaten a bit of it first, the twelve-year-old roped Nana into helping out in the kitchen to try and get him to be less picky. Amazingly, it worked, and you usually seize the opportunity work on your homework while they’re distracted preparing meals.
From there, they became friends pretty quickly, though you think that has more to do with Mayu being a reliable source of chocolate than anything else.
Nana flips between nervous child and overprotective gang leader on a dime for her, which isn’t helpful when you’re trying to stop any more Cafeteria Incidents. Mayu at least has the maturity to help you talk Nana down from some of his more extreme responses to problem-solving and keeps him entertained by telling him more of that pirate story she’s always going on about.
It’s nice that they both found at least one friend around their age to help them survive here in Twisted Wonderland.
Now if they could stop teaming up to make you go grey before you turn eighteen, that’d be swell.
