#blood pressure mention

[tj-crochets]

Hey y'all! Weird question time again, because I think I might've asked these questions before but can't remember what y'all said, and it occurred to me I could make it a poll. I know it sometimes means a different medication, but for the purposes of this poll Benadryl means diphenhydramine. Also, this is not medical advice in any way shape or form and please don't take it as such, I just suspect a lot of my health issues might be just allergies masquerading as something else By "helps with your migraines" I mean stops them, not just helping with the nausea

With the announcement of two new original stories by Rachel herself, I’ve been oscillating between “let her try cooking again” and “we’ve already seen what she did to the Greek pantheon she should be relegated to lunchables”

pasqal setting off an industrial explosion 3ft away from himself, somehow surviving, immediately ready to pick a fight with you including saying in THE most dramatic line 'flee for i am death' said as sole survivor while he's standing in a blaze of a machine he never even touched, meets a rogue trader and where everyone else so far has kinda lost it he basically just opens a backdoor to the imperium government records to look you up and says hm checks out, having a tiny tiny breakdown when you tell him he made the machine explode and then he cant remember how he did it, saying skill issue at the people who died escorting him, then immediately setting up two turrets to Melt people and almost win the fight singlehandedly. [said with utter delight] there is something wrong with him

A very tiny peek at some utterly silly Mayo:

---

“Is that the red one?”

“That is hibiscus tea.”

Mason huffs and tucks his hands further into his arms as his frown deepens.

“What, did you think it was blood?”

“No.”

“I’m sorry, I can’t get you an O-negative chaser. Don’t think Haley would understand.”

Theo weaves her hand through the wall of beverages and lays it on his tightly corded forearm, aware as always of the way his whole being shifts, the sharp furrow between his brows and tension in his jaw gentling and the muscles under her palm relaxing. Her “magic touch,” she calls it, her sole useful superpower.

[experiences symptom] huh maybe this is abnormal. lets look it up [its pots again]

[causalityparadoxes]

Guess who maybe got mild hypothermia and proceeded to

-> Get into a hot bath

-> Almost (actually possible did) fall asleep

Luckily it was either very mild or something else like idk shock or general cold exposure or some kind of cold induced syncope. But bawhahahHA those are the 2 things you are not meant to do there. Some bad decisions were made.

whoo they took a chest xray. and apparently whatever is going on with my throat is fine

Crafting update/life update: - managed to bake something! (spiced blondies! I did not take a picture before they were all eaten but they were really good) - Winter Soldier Bear is halfway done! - I've been doing, uh, not great. physically. I'm mostly okay now but it turns out being super stressed while recovering from corticosteroid withdrawal* (from my asthma flare up) combines super poorly with a new anxiety trigger*** and the end result is that I came extremely close to passing out last week****. I did not! But my crafting time and energy have been extremely limited lately because of health issues, and I don't know when that will change.

*I had to go on a short course of steroids** because I had a bad asthma flare up (because a plumbing issue in my house led to mold in the wall. Plumbing is fixed, wall is replaced, I'm all good asthma-wise now) **short courses of steroids, according to Every Doctor I've Ever Talked To, shouldn't cause withdrawal symptoms. Like, should not be possible. I get withdrawal symptoms every single time because of whatever the is wrong with my endocrine system ***got my first "go hide NOW" tornado warning and I gotta say I do not like it. Every thunderstorm makes me panic a bit now. Not great. ****it was not my normal POTS low blood pressure dizziness, it was a narrow pulse pressure issue. Which, again, doctors have told me shouldn't be happening, which is real useful to hear. (narrow pulse pressure is when the top number and the bottom number of your blood pressure are too close together, and it's Bad)

[the-hilda-librarians-wife]

I headcanon Kaisa as being just slightly hypotensive. I’m thinking normal blood pressure around 11/7. Most importantly, I headcanon that occasionally it may drop and she knows, but doesn’t do anything about it.

So sometimes she’ll be in the library, and will be on her feet for too long, or maybe it’ll be too hot and she hasn’t let go of her cape, or maybe she even has been so caught up in her job that she hasn’t eaten or drink water in three hours. And she’ll begin sweating, and ignore it. Then she’ll feel lightheaded, and think it’s fine. And then her eyesight will get hazy, and she’ll think ‘nah, I can take it’. Then her hearing will sizzle and her mind will spin and she’ll still do nothing. And if someone’s nearby they’ll begin noticing she’s pale and unresponsive, and that’s because she’s trying to not fall down and wondering why she’s seeing dark spots. But mostly, that probably happens when she’s alone, so when she refuses to sit down and drink water/eat/lie down, she’ll just faint for a bit (on the hardwood floor. Ouch.) and get back within a couple of seconds (and just go about her day like nothing happened)

Anyway the place I’m trying to get to is: imagine Kaisa is hanging out with the Hilda gang for some reason, and at some point they notice the blood draining from her face and her eyes going unfocused and then she just drops unconscious on the floor with no prior warning. Imagine the chaos. Imagine Hilda about to slap her and being held back by David while Frida tries to remember the cpr training they had in the Sparrow Scouts. Imagine Kaisa waking back up suddenly and scaring the living shit out of them

Kaisa already has such undead vampire vibes, I just think that’d be hilarious 😭😭

PT. 1

So uh...

Not the right character for this but I guess it'll attract people— I made a silly AU... lots of warnings although. They'll be in the tags.

I'll put the post into parts because of how long it is— Let's start with introducing the characters!

Abyss

Appearance: Abyss has a fearsome presence, with shadowy wings that appear tattered and frayed, as if scorched by corruption. Her eyes glow with a burning intensity, and her form is shrouded in dark mist that seems to pulse with her anger. Her features are sharp and imposing, reflecting her inner turmoil.

Personality: Abyss is the embodiment of wrath, her once-creative spirit now driven by aggression and a thirst for power. She resents Krait, blaming him for their fall, and is determined to drag Y/N into the darkness to accelerate the corruption process. She embodies the lyrics "Let's create a masterpiece, breathe life into your dreams," but in a twisted, sinister way, urging Y/N to give in to darker impulses.

Role: Abyss acts as a tempter, trying to push Y/N into making choices that will further corrupt the haven and themselves. She thrives on the chaos and feeds off Y/N's doubts and fears.

------

Thennn, we have her brother — MASSIVE warning. His whole existence would trigger some people 😓

------

Krait

Appearance: Krait's body is marked by his self-surgeries, with crude, hastily healed scars running along his chest and abdomen. His appearance is unsettling, a mix of elegance and rawness, with eyes that have seen too much pain. He often wears loose, dark clothing that hides most of his form, but his hands, stained with his own blood, are always visible.

Personality: Krait is quiet, introspective, and deeply conflicted. He bottles up his anger, directing it inward through self-surgeries that serve as both punishment and release. Krait resents the control their creator had over him, and his surgeries are a way of reclaiming agency over his body. He was once the creator's muse, and this betrayal cuts him deeply. His relationship with Abyss is fraught with tension and unresolved emotions.

Role: Krait is a tragic figure, offering Y/N glimpses of the pain and corruption that lie beneath the surface. He is the more sympathetic of the two, though his methods are disturbing. Krait represents the twisted beauty of what was once pure and now distorted.

--------

Sun

Appearance: Sun's form is radiant yet eerie, with a halo that flickers like a malfunctioning light. His golden robes are stained with dark, rust-colored patches, and his smile is unsettlingly wide. He moves with a jerky, unnatural grace, as if barely holding himself together.

Personality: Sun is obsessive about cleanliness and order, reacting violently to any mess or disruption. He is deeply angered by the corruption of the haven, particularly when the "machine of process" is turned on. Sun sees himself as a guardian of the old order, but his methods are harsh and unforgiving.

Role: Sun acts as an enforcer, punishing those who contribute to the chaos. His interactions with Y/N are tense, as he tries to impose order on a place that has long since fallen into disarray.

------

Moon

Appearance: Moon is ethereal and ghostly, with dark, flowing robes that seem to merge with the shadows around him. His eyes are half-lidded, and he rarely moves, appearing almost statue-like in his stillness. When he does awaken, his movements are slow and deliberate, exuding an air of menace.

Personality: Moon is lethargic and avoids conflict, preferring to sleep through the chaos. However, when awoken, he becomes a force of quiet, cold fury, dealing with intruders and disruptions in a methodical, almost detached manner. His wrath is slow-burning but deadly.

Role: Moon serves as a looming threat, the embodiment of repressed anger. He is a ticking time bomb, and when Y/N encounters him, it’s usually a sign that things are about to go very wrong.

-----

Dusk

Appearance: Dusk is a fusion of light and shadow, with a face that is half bathed in light and half obscured by darkness. His form is elegant, almost regal, with robes that shift colors depending on his mood. He moves with a smooth, calculated grace, always exuding an air of confidence.

Personality: Dusk is manipulative and charming, using his charisma to bend others to his will. He feels deep shame and resentment towards what he has become, a being tainted by hatred. Dusk is constantly at odds with himself, hiding his true feelings behind a mask of control.

Role: Dusk is the most complex of the demons, torn between his desire to manipulate and his lingering guilt. He sees Y/N as a challenge, someone who might resist his influence, and this both frustrates and intrigues him.

----

Plot Concept: The story could begin with Y/N returning to the underground haven, driven by memories of its former glory and perhaps a sense of responsibility for what it has become. As they navigate the corrupted halls, they encounter Abyss and Krait, both of whom have their own agendas and deep-seated issues.

(Basically)

Next post ... Will have the rest (The backstory gets it's own post... So a part 3 eventually)

Also, if anything is a problem please correct me or say something — I perhaps used an AI (properly) to write this stuff. I had the information and basic ideas but didn't like my writing... It wasn't elegant 😓

[dyke420-69]

[ask-eyefestation-archived]

Jeff started out as a normal suburban teenager, living with his Mother Margaret, Father Peter and Brother Liu.

At some point in Jeff's life when he reached the age of 13, he and his family moved into a new neighborhood after his father got a promotion. Jeff and his brother were happy about the idea. Not long after settling into the neighborhood, Jeff obtains an odd feeling in his mind, but does not think too much of it.

A day later Jeff and Liu go to a bus stop void of people, while waiting for the school bus three kids Randy, Troy and Keith approach the brothers and mug them at knife point, taking Liu's wallet in the process, Jeff gets the feeling in his head again and gets into a fight with the three bullies, incapacitating all three of them, shocking Liu, Jeff and Liu leave the scene after the school bus nears in and go to school, believing they are in the clear.

The next morning however, police arrive at Jeff's house and both Jeff and Liu are accused of attacking the trio with no apparent motivation, even after Jeff tries to tell the police that they were being mugged, the police doesn't believe him, Jeff rightly takes the blame for the whole thing and is about to be taken away by the police to a Correctional Facility for a whole year, but Liu steps in with a knife in hand and takes the blame for the whole incident, showing cuts and bruises on his arm to prove it, Liu is then taken away in Jeff's place, leaving Jeff into a depression.

After two days, Jeff becomes more and more debilitated with guilt and loneliness. However on a Saturday morning, Jeff's mother insists that he goes to a neighbors birthday party as she believes it will make him happy. Jeff reluctantly goes to the party, which shortly takes his mind off of Liu, making him feel slightly better. However things take a turn for the worse when Randy, Troy & Keith track Jeff at the party and confront him, with anger in their eyes showing that they are wanting an obvious fight, Jeff tries to reason with Randy believing that the odds are even between the two as he got to beat them and they got his brother sent to the Juvenile Detention Center, but Randy dismisses this as he claims "I don’t go for even, I go for winning".

Randy then proceeds to brutally attack Jeff whilst Troy and Keith hold the parents and children at gunpoint to prevent them from stopping the fight, during the fight Randy smashes a bottle of Vodka over Jeff's head, drenching him in alcohol. After Randy incapacitates Jeff, he constantly yells at Jeff to fight back, but after struggling to stand, Randy finally insults Jeff, telling him that Liu will rot in prison and that he should be ashamed of himself that he won't do anything about it.

This infuriates Jeff to stand up and knock Randy to the ground, striking a vicious punch to Randy's chest, causing Arrhythmia to his heart, which results in his death. Troy and Keith, enraged by Randy's death, begin to shoot Jeff with their guns, they fail to hit him. After the two run out of ammunition, Jeff lures them to the bathroom where he mortally wounds them.

During the struggle with Keith, a tub of bleach drenches Jeff, and so Keith takes this opportunity to set Jeff on fire by throwing his lighter at him. With the combination of alcohol and bleach drenched on Jeff, it sets him a blaze, making it practically impossible for him to put out the flames himself, Jeff then falls down the stairs of the house and passes out as the flames engulf him.

Jeff wakes up in a hospital room with bandages covering his face and body, and is informed by his mother that Liu is being released from jail after witnesses overheard Randy mention that he was responsible for getting Liu in prison. Several weeks later, Jeff's bandages are removed, revealing his face to be deformed, Jeff takes a liking to his face, and when his family notices the behaviour, the doctors mistakenly assure them that it is a result of the painkillers.

When taken home that day, during the night, Jeff's mother wakes up to find Jeff in the bathroom burning out his own eyelids and carving a glasgow smile up to his cheeks, she realises that Jeff has gone insane and knows he needs to be killed, when informing Jeff's father, Jeff overhears this and proceeds to butcher his parents. Liu wakes up from the noise and tries to avoid it by trying to go back to sleep, however Jeff creeps into the room and tells Liu to "Go To Sleep", before plunging the knife into his chest, Liu's fate is then left uncertain.

Jeff then goes on a serial killing rampage killing those who refuse to sleep at night, Jeff becomes infamously known as the "Ominous Unknown Killer".

"Oh, so he's an emo teen?"
