The actress, who plays Dr. Mel's sister, Becca -- Tal Anderson -- is actually autistic. :)

From her IMDB page:

Tal Anderson is a storyteller and an advocate for change, using her voice and platform as an actor to support inclusion and authentic representation in Hollywood. [...] As an autistic artist, she uses her unique position to advocate for disability rights in the workplace and inclusivity in front of and behind the camera in Hollywood. [...] When she's not acting, Tal flexes her creative muscles with editing and writing. She has edited exhibit videos for the Smithsonian Institute, and has completed post-production for many independent short and feature length narrative and documentary films. She's an avid horror movie fan, lover of rock music, and is a true crime enthusiast. When it comes to her presence in the public eye, she wants people to see her as a real person who's doing their job authentically and doing their best to advocate for equality and disability. She has permanently relocated to Los Angeles, where she lives with her cat Winifred.

I'm sure her presence in the cast of the show has an influence on how Mel is portrayed, perhaps on how she's written and how Taylor Dearden plays her. This is good. :) And Taylor is rather convincing in the role. Now I'm curious if Taylor was chosen for her physical similarity to Tal, rather than the other way around. :)

The conversation between Mel and Becca was very sweet, btw.

I miss these guys i have their poster on my wall🩷🩷

[rebeccamix]

there are a lot of things in I KILLED THE KING i hope readers will love, but i do think the stoic royal guard that has dedicated his entire life to serving the flirty, spoiled prince who is obsessed with him will be a lot of fun for readers. they are in love when the book starts, everyone knows it but them, and they cannot stop PINING, even when the king is dead on the floor and they're both accused of killing him lmao.

What TOH scenes were the most wholesome to you?

Waited until the finale aired to answer this.

[18catsreading]

Katja: he kind of looks like a horse to me. And you know what has --

Brennan: this six-legged tentacles cat wearing armor looks like a horse?

Rekha: yes, Brennan, and his tentacles look like horse brushes!

All: laughing, Someone I couldn't catch: Listen!

Rekha: So Brennan, if you wouldn't be so fucking rude, can I hope on one of these thing's backs and then try to attack it by using it's own tentacles like a brush and kill it?

All: laughing

Brennan: I --

Rekha: you know I'm gonna ask one stupid fucking question pe campaign!

Sephie: do it! Do it!

Brennan: give me an athletics check, give me an athletics check, give me an athletics check

Aabria: let's go! You have advantage!

Izzy: oh, is there any way I could cast Guidance?

Brennan: I'm gonna let you cast Guidance. You can add a d4 to this, DC 20

Aabria: uh, you have advantage cuz of the thing right?

Rekha: 16, plus --

Erika: oh wait, is this a strength check?

Rekha: wait, 16 plus athletics you said?

Brennan: yeah

Rekha: 25

Izzy: it's done

Brennan: oh my God

Becca (I think): add the d4 anyway

Brennan: okay, so Cinnamon runs up

Rekha: oh, add the d4?

Becca: add his advantage

Izzy (I think): wait is cinnamon jumping on top of this thing? Is she on cinnamon on --?

Aabria: roll the d20 again

Rekha: yeah. Okay, I'm rolling again.

Brennan: okay

Rekha: fuck, don't count that it doesn't matter.

Becca: it went under the seat

*all laughing*

Rekha: this one didn't matter either, so pick the other thing I did, 25

Brennan: I've lost - I've fully lost, I've lost it.

Overlapping chatter: it's gone off the rails, you've lost control. Control, completely

Brennan: yeah 100%< 100%

Becca: you still have me in the air!

Brennan: I still have Penny! So, uh, 25, cool, so Cinnamon is going to gallop up behind these ether beasts and I'm gonna say that cinnamon also readies an action to move again when the way is clear.

Rekha: cool. To jump on the king?

Brennan: go ahead, you made your acrobatics check. So you jump on one of the ether beasts in front of you

Becca: it became Rekha's fanfic

Brennan: so you jump on one of the ether beasts in front of you. do you want to jump on the middle one or the one to either side?

Rekha: if I'm trying to get to the king I want to jump on the middle one to get to the king.

Brennan: you're gonna will Smith from "wild wild West" like jump from ether beasts to ether beast, saddle to saddle like?

Rekha: I will do what you will let me do in this game.

Brennan: you leap, and you make it onto that ether beast

Sephie: oh my God.

Izzy: Which one?

Rekha: the middle one?

Brennan: the middle one. Are you going to do the brush attack?

Izzy: brush attack, canon

Rekha: yes

Brennan: amazing. Go ahead and roll your first attack roll

Aabria: this is the best day of my life

Rekha: okay, that's just a 15. Am I adding, like what do I add to it? The same as my?

Brennan: I'll tell you what you're not gonna add to it, your goddamn proficiency bonus.

Rekha: why?

Aabria: she's been brushing! She's been brushing shit the whole time!

Rekha: I'm proficient at brushing!

Sephie: she should get it, she should get it

*overlapping chatter*

Brennan: no!

Rekha: I would argue the only thing I've done this whole campaign is brushing!

*all laughing*

Brennan: oh my God. You are gonna add your strength modifier alone. These things have an armor class of 13. You hit on an 8 or higher.

Rekha: okay, wait, my strength modifier is this big guy? *Gesturing at her character sheet*

Brennan: yes yes yes.

Rekha: so that was an 11

Brennan: 11, so you rolled a 6 and added 5?

Rekha: yes

Brennan: well you miss on the first one, you may roll again.

Rekha: 17

Brennan: 17 hits, incredible

Rekha: so what do I roll for damage for a brush attack?

Brennan: it's own things do 2d6 damage so you're gonna roll 2d6 adding your strength modifier which is plus 5

Izzy: and so these things sort of have teeth in them?

Rekha: yes, if you look, I've been observing this for this entire round

Izzy: so you're sort of taking it and then puncturing itself

Rekha: *makes brushing motions*

Brennan: you're stabbing it in the head with its own spiky tentacle, yes

Izzy: oh, and you're gonna pull down

Rekha: I'm pulling down like I'm brushing

Aabria: you have to go with the coat

Rekha: yea, with the coat

Becca: it's the only thing you know how to do

Aabria: that's how you keep it shiny

Brennan: incredible

Rekha: seven

Brennan: plus five

Rekha: oh, 12

Brennan: so you deal 12. Are you doing any maneuvers to it, or no?

Rekha: I mean, I gotta right?

Aabria: yea, if you want

Rekha: okay. Do any of these maneuvers make sense if I'm on the thing? Uh, because

Becca: you're at 41, it wouldn't be the worst thing to heal

Brennan: of your maneuvers, you have riposte. You have push attack, push attack makes sense. You would not, you have movement left so if you wanted to hit it with its own tentacle and try to knock it off of the bridge with its own tentacle you could do that.

Rekha: yea

Becca: hit it's friend off

Rekha: would it -- can I dominoes?

All: laughing, Brennan's face goes 😑

Becca: may I --

Brennan: it's so, here's --

Becca: use the reaction to

Rekha: may I dominoes?

Brennan: may you dominoes. With all of my love.

Rekha: no

Brennan: I didn't, you know, and sometimes there's like a fun way to put it, but sometimes it's just, hey, no.

*all laughing*

Brennan: hey Rekha, straight up no

Rekha: okay

Izzy: you are right

Erika: it's good to have boundaries

Izzy: yeah! You're riding an ether beast

Rekha: last stupid question before I do your pushing attack. I can't also stick these two brushes *screen shows tentacles* in the ass of the king in front of me? *Screen pans to the ether beast king's ass* May I?

Erika: spits out her sip of water

Sephie: please. things come out!

Rekha: I'm just asking!

Erika: oh no

Sephie: bite him. Get him, get him

Erika: I need --

Brennan: did you just snarf, oh no!

Erika: I just spit

Brennan: oh my God

??: get her a tissue!

Erika: I'm sorry. It's fine

Brennan: oh no, hey Rekha, you want to drop a piano on his head?

Rekha: no, my thing --

Brennan: you want to paint a cave on the wall real quick and he runs into the cave?

Rekha: my thing -- my thing is available! You've got two brushes. I want to stick it in the king's ass!

Sephie: all in favor of sticking it in the king's ass, raise your hand

All: raise their hands

Brennan: this is not a democracy!

Rekha: okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, Brennan, okay, "Brennan"

Izzy: "Brennan"

Brennan: if that is my real name

Izzy: if you only knew what's in the --

Rekha: okay, so I'll do a "pushing attack"

Brennan: go ahead and roll your d8

Rekha: oh, yes, this one ... So that's a 3

Brennan: an extra 3 damage to the ether beast, now it's going to roll a strength saving throw against your DC, your DC is 17. It succeeds on its saving throw and is not pushed over the edge but does take that damage. You are still riding it.

Rekha: okay, um, so I can do a bonus action?

Brennan: you can do a bonus action

Rekha: I'm gonna second wind

Brennan: hell yea

Rekha: so 1d10 plus 9

Brennan: 1d10 plus 9 coming your way

Rekha: 15

Brennan: Katja heals 15 hit points from second wind. You are riding, Cinnamon's right behind you. That is Katja's turn

Katja: I love you! [To cinnamon]

Izzy: yea Cinnamon's jealous

Rekha: are you jealous?

Brennan: and at the end of your turn--

Rekha: no response

Aabria: oh no!

Izzy: she's pissed. Read, you're on read

Rekha: oh wow, oh wow. She's in the doghouse tonight. The fucking doghouse tonight.

Izzy: she doesn't like to see you riding someone else

Sephie: you rode someone else right in front of her

Rekha: I'm in the stables tonight, baby, oh boy

Aabria: she says that so much. There's no universe in which --

Rekha: anytime cinnamon gets mad

Brennan: at the end of your turn, Katja, Kurraghran is going to teleport behind Ostentatia and make a tentacle attack

Rekha: is he scared that I'm going to stick tentacles in his ass? 🥹

*all laughing*

Brennan: honestly yeah! You know, what do you want me to say? Yea, he's terrified. He has no idea what is going on.

Katja: he doesn't want one of his kids tentacles in his ass?

Izzy: he's gonna get an ass-full of rings in a second

Aabria: is he their dad?

Brennan: incredible

[givesmeyourteeths]

Just watched godzilla x kong and whoo boy, it sure was a movie

Good one tho, i had a blast, it was so much fun

Spoilers :3

I did not expect the movie to be so violent though, like WHAT

We just have kong casually ripping apart a dog thingy, i forgot their names but mam are they ugly.

And then in skar kings lair, there were just 3 severed heads on spikes, like bro, chill, we know you're evil

Shimo is just a puppy and i love her for it :3

Not the ice queen we were expecting but i still love her

Personally i always loved goji's new evolved or rather half-evolved form because that shit is done. Bro is literally malnourished so he will get his roundnesd back. I'm pretty sure his dorsal plates are also just straight up missing a layer of skin, like deer antlers probably, you could literally see veins in there, that shit's seethrough.

I absolutely ship berny and trapper, they were lovely. Obviously the humans are just plot devices but they were still character enough for me to enjoy. A lot actually, i really don't have anything bad to say here. A bit more of them would've probably even helped the movie because it kinda just rushes past you at a million miles an hour. That probably my only real critique point here, i just had so much fun :3

Another obvious plot device was mothra but just like the humans i did not care what so ever, i loved mothra, fucking slaayyyy QUEEN, HELL YEAH. She so pretty uwu

This whole thing was really a kong movie with godzilla just kind of there being fucking awsome and it was glorious!!!

I love kong so much, i wanna hug my baby. I also wanna pet shimo but that's besides the point. I really don't mind the beast glove, it's just a glorified bandage that just happens to Also boots his strength a little, it is not here to stay for long. He's probably gonna get rid of it by the time of the next movie and someone better call him King kong because my boy is now King now, hell yeah!!! He's gonna be so good for those poor apes down there, they suffered so much abuse at the hands of skar.

I heard some things that the next movie in the probably wingard trilogy will be more godzilla focused which, yes please, baby needs some characterization goddamn it. I'm not saying i don't like monsterverse goji, far from it, i love this overgrown lizard but his character is not explored as thoroughly as kong's was. He's got so much potential and i can't wait to see that and his finished evolution. See you guys in 2 or 3 years then for next one >^w^<

I'd probably give it and 8/10, will rewatch at least 8 times >:3

Madaparty Theme 2 - Villains

this is at least 10% ironic

The prompt for Chapter 2 is "True Colors" Title: The Place Where You Find Comfort Fandom: My Engineer Relationships: RamKing Summary: After graduating from college, King had to leave his school housing and move back in with his parents. When the house needs to be renovated, King needs to find temporary housing and turns to his not-quite boyfriend, Ram. Ram moved back in with his mom to support her during her divorce from his dad, and he’s more than happy to let King stay in his home. They both kind of forgot about the dogs. Tags: fluff, fear of dogs, soft boys, communication, sharing a bed, more tags to be added as I fill more prompts.

I'd love for there to be some sort of short film, or episode, or comic book, or anything that showcases Clemson finding his way to Madagascar and trying to usurp the thrown once more from Julien, but this time with characters like Timo and Masikura thrown into the mix. Maybe we could see Clemson trying to convince Uncle King Julien to join the side of evil again, or see him use his knowledge of the mainland and the humans to steal Timo's inventions, or maybe even see him recruit Prince Augustine (who was from DreamWorks Madagascar #3, which is a fantastic comic btw, and shows Julien finally returning to his kingdom after abandoning it in the second movie).

[transpanda-1]

😷Wait um. Do people really like the character from the tutorial?? He's... nice, but nothing too special. Honestly from the playthrough we had he was really boring. Does he appear later or something?

I feel like the tutorial would've just been more effective if it was Zelda filling in the same role, tbh :/
