Waittt, what did you mean with your last post?? I don't want to spoil myself so I'm waiting for the nightmare before christmas event to arrive on the eng server before diving deep into the wiki. But I HAVE to know; were there hints of Lilia joining in for a rerun or a sequel ??? Your big "OR IS IT???" filled me with way too much hope !! please tell me it wasn't a bit : (
there was a little teaser at the end that implied there'll be a sequel event, though we don't really know anything beyond that! I do think it's likely we'll get the other half of the cast in it, even if it's just wishful thinking on my part. 🤞🤞 NIGHTMARE SUITS FOR EVERYONE!!!!
as far as I know there's been no confirmation on whether it's going to be next year's Halloween event or a separate thing (the snow makes me think it'll be more Christmas-themed, or otherwise more related to the plot of the original movie) so. we're probably going to have to wait quite a while before we find out anything solid. :') they really do love just dropping these things on us and then watching us go absolutely wild with speculation while they watch like
#joseimuke games are serious business#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#lost in the book with nightmare before christmas#hajimari no halloween#me the second i saw the question mark at the end: ahhhh so that's why lilia couldn't be in it#(nods sagely) they were saving him for the second one. yes. of course.#to get more into event spoilers though (so stop reading here if you're avoiding them for now!)#this does explain some things i was wondering about!#like the stitch event didn't follow the movie at all so i wasn't really surprised that this didn't either#but i WAS surprised that oogie wasn't so much as mentioned#if he's also being saved for the second part then that makes a lot more sense#though i am sorry that jamil won't get to meet the man made of bugs 😔#however i am very excited for lilia and floyd to wreak chaos across not one but two holidays!#half the characters: now hold on can we talk about this before --#lilia and floyd: (already shoving santa into a bag) KIDNAP THE SANDY CLAWS#i guess the real question is...if this is for next halloween are we gonna get an oogie boy to go along with it#how many handsome animes can they squeeze out of this franchise? more than you'd expect#wait so does this mean the rhythmic being essentially the opening to the movie was like...foreshadowing or something#or am i overthinking it as per usual#(eng i am praying for you that this rhythmic won't get eaten by the music licensing monsters and replaced with some generic instrumental)#(it is SO cute i love it SO much)

i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that su’s treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.
two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voices—it’s been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise they’re over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!
#i don’t know if pay rates differ per networks#but a.ivi and s.urrashu have said that they needed to work outside of su in order to make sufficient funds#it only makes me wonder what other ways su suffered from a lower budget#that we as the audience never got to see#in the vein of the too-little characters complaint#another part of that is that low-stakes episodes should’ve been abt the main cast instead of the townies#like last one out of beach city and too short to ride vs restaurant wars and kiki’s pizza delivery service#i definitely see that especially since that isn’t budget related#nor would it seem to be network related (even if cn had an ‘episodic episodes’ quota it could still be abt the gems#(another side note: /would/ cn even have a requirement that the show make episodes that can be watched standalone?#this is a question for the people who were around when su was airing#what episodes often got rerun?#was it the townie eps or the lore eps?#for example i heard that su once did a ‘peridot event’ where they just reran peridot episodes#which had eps that skip around in the show#did they even care about airing the story so that it made sense anyways?#id get it if the low stakes townie episodes were the ones getting rerun))#but i have such a boring view on that which is i think it’s simply because the creators like townie eps#like in interviews r.ebecca s.ugar has said she’s the type to be really invested in background characters#answers in interviews have been crafted in ways to hide what’s really going on though tbf#prime example of this is rebecca and ian saying the wedding being interrupted was meant to follow the common trope#when later in the art book they said that it was bc cn rejected the ep bc it ‘wasn’t interesting enough’#both could simultaneously be true! it’s a psychology thing though where people make up nice-sounding explanations behind what they create#in retrospect because they want it to be thought out in such a nice way they believe in it#the bigger problem is that not matter how many episodes there are of them#it can be hard for ppl to be invested in the townies the same way they are invested in the main cast#i’m sure that a million writers have made surefire advice on how to get an audience to care about characters#but off the top of my head i think it’s because 1. most don’t have strong motivations to get truly invested in#(exception is ronaldo but people find him too annoying to care about him)#okay i had more points and explanations but i hit the tag limit and idk if anyone is actually reading this so bye

I'm going to try to make my own designs for all the creatures in asoue/atwq. Here's my interpretation of The Great Unknown :)
design notes ↓
#the atmosphere and vibe of the books is very fun to work with#a series of unfortunate events#asoue#the great unknown#im not big on the idea of the bombinating beast being the great unknown#if it has to be a creature i think the mystery is better kept if it's a separate creature#and i also have a very different design for the bombinating beast in mind#my art#not an eel#unfortunate creatures#if you're wondering what the blacked out portion is it's just a paragraph on the us cheese caves

In the Sandman, since Dream 'came into existence once lifeforms capable of dreaming appeared in the universe', I wonder what that lifeform is and what did it dream of. Like what is the first dream in the universe about.
#idk of the comics have anything about that though. I'm only on book 4#some post on twitter about how octopuses (which is like super different from human in evolution) can dream got me thinking#about dreams in animal and generally other lifeforms#from what we know there are few studies on dreams in animals#we can only study their behavior while they sleep or compare brain waves with human REM sleep or something of a sort#we don't exactly know if animals can dream the way we dream#dreams in animals are interesting to me because#it makes me wonder what these bizarre visual and auditory hallucinations the brain cooks up each night are and what are they for#we can only theorize that it organizes the brain and help with memory and learning and simulating events etc.#if many animals dream despite having very different ancestors then it's definitely something useful#I don't know how to explain but it's simply wild to think about. I don't know how it doesn't blow my stupid little brain#studying dream in animals might give us more insight to dreams in human I think#delete later

laying in bed thinking about how Wukong is a people pleaser and this part of him gets frequently overlooked due to the focus on his hot-headedness/impulsivity
#Monkie Kid#lego monkie kid#tagging LMK cause i do think it uses this part of him#to add in events while still having him remain in Character#like of course Azure and the others convinced him to not be afraid and take on heaven#before heaven's army could arrive on his doorstep and force him to fight like in the books#like. he got kicked out of school because the other students encouraged him to show off#this is one hundred percent in character for him#if he got a single compliment he'd go along with whatever that person said when he was young#which is also part of how the Gold Star of Venus convinced him to get a job in Heaven#which Wukong was originally uninterested in#the fight against heaven + the mountain jaded him which made him more easily angered#(yknow. like a reasonable response to trauma)#but EVEN STILL during the Journey HE'S STILL A PEOPLE PLEASER#and then by the time of LMK he's mellowed out more which MAKES SENSE.#i could do a whole entire more formally written analysis about this but this is what i've got#brain cannot brain any more than this#anyways obligatory my opinions are my own and i respect anyone who disagrees with me tag#anyone who has another opinion is wonderful and valid but these are my thoughts

Fruit Salad, Yummy Yummy! (Lilia/Persayis & Stitch)
Not a word about the title Content Warning: Spoilers for the Lost in a Book With Stitch event
“That’s quite the colorful fruit salad you’re making, my dear.” Persayis glimpsed her loving companion approach from the corner of her eye. His straw, florally decorated sun hat protected his vision from the bright rays of light cascading down on them from above, further aided by his red rimmed sunglasses. Persayis donned a similar one of her own, the brim of the hat somewhat larger than her beloved’s; her sunglasses, too, were the opposite of his, shades round, the lenses a light pink color that shifted into a pale yellow ombre on the lower half. According to the man, they looked positively adorable - the cutest couple on the island! “Mangos, bananas, melons, strawberries…” He glanced down at the unchopped bushel of mountain apples and pointed at them. “Allow me to help you prep the rest, hm?”
Persayis truly had come a long way since her enrollment at Night Raven College. She smiled and nodded, gracefully taking the fae’s help without a fuss. “That would be very helpful, thank you.”
Lilia grabbed the little knife Stitch, their newest friend and island companion, had crafted for them earlier that morning. He then placed one of the apples on the cutting board on the counter and began chopping. Lilia sniffed the air and hummed in delight. “Such a sweet scent!” He popped a freshly cut piece into his mouth, mumbling in between chews. “They taste like flowers. How delightful!
The pleasant scent wafted into Persayis’s nostrils, pairing quite well with the lovely smell of the other fruits and the faint smell of the ocean. She eyed the juicy apple curiously; Lilia cut another small piece and offered it to her. Wordlessly, she allowed Lilia to place the slice on her tongue, closing her mouth and beginning to chew. He was right! Persayis refrained from speaking until she swallowed the tasty morsel. “They do! It’ll meld well with the other flavors, I think.”
“Perhaps we can procure some edible flowers to mix in with it,” Lilia suggested. “I believe I spotted a few while we were out and about yesterday.”
That was an idea. She knew the pickier eaters among them might snub their noses at the inclusion, but maybe she could convince them to give the fruity and floral combination a try. Persayis turned her head to look out the open back doorway, currently doorless thanks to Floyd. Graciously, Stitch had woven a pretty long cloth to hang there for the time being. Speaking of the creature, “Where’s Stitch? Perhaps you two can go collect some together.”
“If I can even keep up with the little rascal!” Lilia laughed before he continued to chop up the apples. “I look away for a moment and he’s gone! He’s much like Floyd - a rambunctious child, if you will.”
Persayis smirked. “Don’t make the comparison too loudly, my love. You wouldn’t want her merman friend to hear you say that and think you were saying he was the child.”
Lilia nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders. “If one cannot accept the truth, that is their own fault.” It was his turn to smirk as he glanced her way. “Should he become confrontive, I wouldn’t mind a small tussle.”
Persayis chuckled as she shook her head and tossed the big bowl of fruit with a wooden spoon. “What am I going to do with you all?”
“You may handle the youngsters as you like.” Lilia leaned closer, stalling his chopping a second time. “As for me, well, I’d hope you will continue to shower me with affection~”
“If you behave,” Persayis retorted, a teasing lilt to her tone.”
“Darling,” Lilia drawled, his hand not holding the knife coming down to hold her waist and pull Persayis closer. “Do I ever?”
“Yes, when it suits you.” She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. “Such a bad influence~”
“Would you have me any other way?~” Lilia delivered a kiss to her lips in return. It only lasted seconds, but the depth and passion simmering underneath its surface nearly made her drop the wooden spoon. When Lilia broke the brief liplock, he simply stared at her, patiently waiting for a reply. He was content to watch the little pink blush form on her cheeks in the meantime.
“Hm…” Persayis contemplated his question for a moment. Her fingers came up to dust a bit of sand off his tropically patterned shirt. “No,” she met his gaze directly, “I suppose I wouldn’t.”
After another exchange of smiles, the two went back to their tasks. Lilia was very quick on completing his; those skilled, deftly trained hands wielded the blade expertly. As he began to chop the last of the aromatic fruit, he noticed something resting on a small plate on the counter: a honeycomb. Quite a large one at that. There was a medium sized honey dipper resting beside it, expertly crafted from the same wood as the cutting board, plate, bowls - literally just about every utensil and dish available in the kitchen. Lilia knew he must ask Stitch to reveal his secrets on how to become so good at the craft later.
“Where did you get that?” Lilia asked, gesturing to the honeycomb.
“Ace came upon it a little while after your group finished gathering the fruit,” Persayis explained. She sighed and shook her head. “Should I be surprised that he tried to obtain it without any sort of precaution?”
“Oh dear, I suppose not, khee hee hee.” Lilia placed the knife on the upper edge of the cutting board. He then moved over to the sink and began to wash his hands. “Don’t tell me that’s why I saw him soaking in the ocean before I came in here.”
“You would be right.” Persayis picked up the cutting board piled high with neat chunks of mountain apples and carefully poured them into the bowl of fruit salad. “Thankfully, it isn’t because he was assaulted by bees. Riddle and Jack stopped him before he could get himself hurt.” Persy’s smile returned as she took the dipper and soaked its top in the sweet golden liquid. “Three guesses as to who constructed a fogger to calm the bees enough to retrieve this comb.”
“Stitch!” Lilia stated matter-of-factly as he turned off the faucet and dried his hands with his shirt.
“How’d you guess?” The sarcasm was evident. “Unfortunately for Ace, Stitch thought it would be funny to toss the boy the honeycomb after he retrieved it. He was covered in honey when he came in!” Persayis began to drizzle the fruit salad with the spoils of the boys’ labor. “I sent him right back out to wash off. Let’s hope it isn’t too troublesome to get it out of his hair.”
Lilia stepped over to the open doorway and looked out towards the ocean. He spotted Ace immediately, Jack and Riddle now accompanying him. Ace sat in the shallows close to shore, arms crossed and clearly pouting as Riddle helped rinse his hair. The housewarden was lecturing him on his brashness, no doubt. Jack was crouched next to them, appearing to be scrubbing away at Ace’s shirt. Ah, it was good to see ones so young participating in some good old-fashioned teamwork! Comradery like that would surely help them succeed in their survival on the island.
It brought back a few old memories of his, back when he was a strapping lad in the military, he and his comrades-in-arms bathing in one of Briar Valley’s many creeks after they made the foolhardy blunder of trying to trek through a swamp - one they did not realize was so deep until they were up to their chins in muck. Lilia giggled to himself at the humorous recollection. It’d given him much grief and frustration in his youth. He would have to regale the story to his boys and lady love sometime.
“That about does it!” Lilia turned back to see Persayis tuck the ladle of the large spoon deep into the bowl before clapping her hands together. “Now to just keep it cool until it’s time to eat.”
“Does your helper get a sampling before then?” Lilia put on his biggest, most adorable puppy eyes, complete with a small protrusion of his lower lip. “I worked so hard chopping those apples.” He rubbed his wrist, feigning discomfort. “I can feel the ache of arthritis already.”
Persayis scoffed and rolled her eyes, yet she relented. She fished out a small fork - metal, not wooden - from a drawer and stabbed a few pieces of fruit onto its prongs before offering it to Lilia. “Yes, yes, you do. No need to be so dramatic.” Just as Lilia took the bite in his mouth, Persy added, “But this is all you get until dinner!”
Lilia made a small ‘mmm’ as he savored the flavor. He took his time enjoying the sweetness before swallowing. Lilia grinned from ear to ear as he gently applauded. “Yummy! Another culinary masterpiece!” He then swooped over and pulled Persayis into an embrace, nuzzling his cheek against hers. “What did I do to deserve the love of such a genius chef, hm?~”
Persayis tittered, the gentle laughter akin to birdsong. As Lilia pulled away just enough to look her in the eye, Persayis removed his sunglasses and placed them on the counter, then wrapped her arms around his neck. “It’s as you say, darling.” Persayis leaned in close, their noses brushing, little fangs peeking through her smile. “You’re just too cute to resist~” Lilia couldn’t imagine there being a kiss more spellbinding than her own.
Half a minute into the kiss that was thoroughly sweeping Lilia off his feet, there came a skittering from behind. Simultaneously, the two released each others’ lips, mild disappointment settling in their guts. Persayis glimpsed over Lilia’s shoulder as glanced behind him. Standing a few feet away was Stitch, holding a pineapple in his small clawed hands, big black eyes staring up at them. This particular pineapple was quite big, too. “Well now,” Lilia bent down to get a better look at the creature’s prize, “where did you find such a handsome fruit?”
Stitch offered up the pineapple - Persayis carefully took it, one hand on its bottom while the other wrapped around its stiff green leaves. The blue animal(?) then jumped onto the counter, opposite the space where Persayis and Lilia had prepared the fruit salad. He pointed a stubby finger out the square window above the sink and stated simply, “Waterfall.”
“Around the waterfall, huh?” Lilia tapped his chin as he peered out towards that direction. “Were there others?”
“Ee,” Stitch confirmed with a singular nod of his big head.
“Hmm.” Lilia placed his hands on his hips. “I’d say we could use a few more of them. We’ve got a lot of mouths to feed.” The fae plucked his sunglasses off the counter and placed them back on his face. “I’m going to go out and get some more.” He glanced down at Stitch, “Come with?”
Stitch’s answer was him climbing onto Lilia’s shoulder. “Well, we’re off again,” Lilia announced. He looked to Persayis, who just chopped off the head of the pineapple and started to slice off its spiked coating. “Anything else you can think of for us to bring you, sugarbat?”
Persayis nodded. “If you could fetch some of those flowers you mentioned before, I’d like to take a look at them.” She gestured to the pineapple with a slight nod. “Apparently my fruit salad mixing isn’t finished just yet.”
Stitch eyed the fruity mix hungrily, making a hushed ‘ooo-oo’ sound. Lilia quickly stepped back from the counter before he could swipe a handful. “Ah ah ah!” he tutted. “That’s for dinner. You keep those hands to yourself, young man!” He rolled his eyes as he pretended to think. “Who knows, maybe if you help me find a lot of flowers to bring back, Persy might let you have a taste.” Lilia glanced in her direction, “Do you think that’s fair, honey munchkin?”
“I don’t see why not,” she shot Lilia a playful glare, “since someone already had a sampling earlier.”
Lilia briefly returned the gesture before smiling from ear to ear, eyes briefly shut in delight. “We’ll bring back a whole bouquet before you, then!” Lilia peeked over at Stitch. “Right?” The creature nodded eagerly. With that, Lilia spun on his heel and began to walk out of the bungalow.
Right before he exited with Stitch, Lilia looked over his shoulder and blew Persayis a kiss. “Be back soon, goo-goo bear. I love you~”
That pet name could make someone gag. For Persayis, however, she melted on the spot. “I love you, too~” She blew Lilia a kiss in return. Lilia pretended to catch it with his hand and placed it over his heart, making a show of stumbling backwards out the door before righting himself and disappearing from sight, little blue buddy in tow.
If they weren’t careful, he just might become their new baby.

I have a question about the jp server pickups, since I really want knight Sebek, but I’m trying to save gems for bloom malleus + the 3rd tsum event that’s gonna show up sooner or later. Iirc, after knight Sebek, the next story update’s pickup had all of the previous story cards (ie cerberus Ortho, general Lilia, and knight Sebek). Is this true, and if it is, did it include a token system like the dorm pickups where you can just do 100 pulls and then buy the specific card you want directly? Because if that is how it works, then I can wait until then and be sure I won’t have to go to 200 for him.
we did indeed get a second chance at those three when 7-7 came out! I'm pretty sure there was not a token system -- though admittedly I don't 100% remember, sorry! 🙇 I took a quick search through some past posts/videos from people who tend to include the gacha and news stuff, but I didn't see any mention of it, so I'm inclined to think there really wasn't one. :( they were all separate pickups with their own pull counts rather than a combined one, if that info helps at all.
speaking as a strict f2p who hoards keys/gems like the lovechild of a dragon and a magpie, given the choice between saving for a story card and a birthday card, I'd go for story -- it does require a lot of patience, but there are way more opportunities to get past birthday cards, both from the anniversary events and the rerun pickups! tsums is a bit harder to say anything on because Eng doesn't follow the same event schedule, but it's a longish event and those pickups let you have a free 10-roll, so I think they're also a bit easier to save up for.
(ALSO speaking of free rolls, starting with the fifth round of birthdays -- the kutsurogi my room ones -- the birthday boy/union jacket/bloom cards have had a separate pickup that you can get two free 10-pulls at by doing missions! I got a bloom Jade from it a couple weeks ago. :D meanwhile general Lilia is the only story card I've ever managed to pull, so...I'm probably kinda biased. whoops.)

Tbh the whole 'bloodclan bans families and hates Cat God' thing really reminds me of the anti communist bullshit I was fed in highschool history class.
Every day I count my lucky stars that I got educated in a well-funded school in a blue state. My teachers were shockingly good in hindsight, I didn't get half of the same propaganda some of my friends in other states got.
#One of the coolest things that we did in my high school history class was#My teacher actually taught us the dawn of the soviet union and the rise of stalinism#AND THEN pulled out a book they had to read in their college course!#Which taught the SAME story from the other side. Exactly as a teenager in the soviet union would learn the story#It blew my third eye RIGHT open#And I think it became downright formative because I've never been able to look at the concept of history lessons the same way#Both the American story and the Soviet story framed their home nations as the righteous entity#And I guess the narrative concept of 'framing' had never felt SO REAL before#Same events just described differently... how much can change from wording#And later that year when I learned about the american whiskey rebellion I thought of a farmer uprising in the soviet union#Yknow. Thinking about it. I wonder if this at all contributed to why I made the Educator role...#Tomorrow's history is today's politics lads. Don't forget that.#And they will laminate the shit and the mud along with the truth.#Bone babble

asoiaf as a multimedia franchise where you have 16 different timelines and inconsistent adaptations and an unfinished main series that you can get key information for from an upcoming broadway play. cursed ass multiverse like shut this shit down immediately. at this rate im gonna get my asoiaf endgame theories from the multiversus voicelines
#heres what we can make of arya’s interactions with bugs bunny#and then people wonder why the interpretations of this series are all over the place like this is unsalvagable#like the book and show canon are different and then u adapt past events to both timelines#then we will have an animated universe??:):));#this is designed specifically to create the most insufferable discourses of all time george u got blood on ur hands im serioud#buddy

my weirdest theory about you is that you know v.e. schwab personally
Publishing is a small world! However, I have yet to meet/interact with her in person.
But I am mutuals with an author on here and I know their editor rather well. :-)
#you know who you are#I will casually stop bu Holly’s office for gossip and books#I also know loads of other amazing and wonderful editors from work and have interacted with some of their authors#and now I have an author who will recognize me on sight because we frequent the same events#I actually have three authors on sight#my life is a long story#takeariskao3
