Safe For Work Headcanons !

huge on pda! always has a hand on your waist or the small off your back or an arm around you. not really in a cutesy "i love my partner so much i need everyone to know how much i love them" way but more in a "i need to keep my dog on a leash" kind of way.

contrary to popular belief, i think he is actually very well groomed. he thinks very highly of himself so i think it would only make sense that he wants to make himself appear extremely put together.

uses cremo's 'bourbon vanilla' bodywash and their ' spice and black vanilla' cologne.

love language is definitely acts of service or gift giving.

he hates telling you that he loves you because it makes him feel like you have a level of control over him and he can't stand it. however, he is constantly doing things for you.

your car needs repairs? he's under the hood. you need help moving something? he's doing it by himself and will NOT let you help.

smokes camel crushes. used to use chewing tabaco because pony express doesn't allow cigarettes onto the ship due to them being fire hazards, but stopped after realizing you could taste it in his mouth. now he just uses nicotine patches while on the ship.

listens to divorced dad rock. think hinder, theory of a deadman, my darkest days.

much bigger fan of cats than he is of dogs.

Not Safe For Work Headcanons !

slightly above average dick size, not huge though. quite girthy, though.

not a fan of you riding him, he says it doesn't feel as good as missionary or doggy but in reality it makes him feel emasculated having you on top of in a 'position of power'.

a huge sadist (shocker). he's constantly spanking or hitting or pulling hair.

LOVES making you cry during sex. whether its from overstimulation or just straight pain, it doesn't matter.

really big on choking too.

not very big on bondage or restraining you. he likes to feel you grabbing at him and writhing around under him. it gives him a huge ego boost to know that he doesn't have to tie you down to keep you from squirming away.

bites and leaves hickeys frequently. he enjoys the thought of there being physical marks on your body that show that you're his.

very vocal in bed. he's not necessarily *loud* perse but he talks and groans a ton.

[Chuuya makes a confused noise, his eyes fluttering open from where they'd closed] Hm? Oh. I can't even feel that shit.

[He huffs a bit] You're fine, shitty dazai

dsmp lesbian analysis post

this was based on a misreading of a different post so now im rating how lesbian dsmp characters are. no real criteria just going off of vibes from a lesbian. based vaguely on how lesbian they are and how much they might identify as lesbian

C!Phil- (4/10)-he has a wife so thats something. he's kinda forgone most identities by this point he just does what he wants

C!Tubbo-(1/10)-im sorry thats just some binary gay transmasc guy. he may have briefly been a lesbian in his early teens so he had an extremely on the spot explanation for schlatt abt dressing masc but he likes men (a lot) so he never really had any attachment to the label

C!Ranboo-(3/10)-they arent really interested in women but he's got a lesbian gender thing goin on. guy with a weird relationship to femininity

C!Dream-(2/10)-she actually is a lesbian but no ones told her that yet and she's probably not gonna figure it out on her own. mamacita was an egg cracking experience

C!George-(0/10)-im sorry i dont see it

C!Niki-(10/10)- trans curious bisexual woman who wears a trench coat and has ratty dyed pink hair and knows how to tie a lot of different kinds of knots and not for boat reasons. she's having a full boar gender and sexuality crisis starting during the election. dyke as a gender identifier probably wouldn't occur to her but she'd like it a lot. she'd also like the old flag with the axe

C!Sam-(2/10)-not really a lesbian at all but if puffy squints hard enough while theyre making out sad style she can act like he's a cute butch

C!Fundy-(3/10)-he doesnt really call himself a lesbian but whenever he has a crush on a woman he in his head says he's being gay for her. accidentally postponed niki's sexuality crisis by transitioning to a guy

C!Punz-(10/10)-look at him. look at him. butch lesbian who kinda acts like a dog for the girl she's obsessed with. religious horror toxic devotion yuri buff lady general tragedy we got it all. also tommyinnit certified look

C!Hbomb-(3/10)-she's mostly straight but a lot of her admiration of other women and learning to do femininity in a way she likes kinda aligns her with lesbians. she believes in their beliefs

C!Sapnap-(??/10)-kinda in a quantum state of lesbianism for me. could go either way honestly. if her fiances want her to be a girl she can be

C!Karl-(9/10)-karl set off everyone's lesbian radar they didn't know they had which was really confusing cause it presented like a gay cis guy for a long while. tubbo just happens to ask her abt gender once on a whim n she's like oh no im a girl thing :3 and everyone else freaks out cause it was just not correcting them. it likes flamboyant masc fashion and being confusing

C!Quackity-(10/10)-watch the quackhalo date stream if you haven't yet i'm begging you. bigender transfem girlguy guygirl who wants to be someone's girlfriend and have a girlfriend or multiple or many. she's running the full gambit of presentation in a bunch of combos

C!Badboyhalo-(5/10)-Quackity brings out the lesbian in her (she's a closeted transfem lady and it makes her very flustered when she realizes q's calling her his girlfriend.) the bigboobies in bigboobyhalo are the result of lots and lots of estrogen

C!Wilbur-(0/10) he doesnt know lesbians are real

C!Puffy-(7/10)-the best way i can describe puffy's gender is that she is earnestly trying to be as confusing contradictory and horny as possible and it's working. she's a lesbian but only when she's a guy or just extremely down bad for some lady and if you called her a dyke she'd moan

C!Slimecicle-(7/10)-lesbian as a gender thing. he doesn't like using typical words to describe his gender but lesbian is the closest to standard it'll go

C!Hannah-(10/10)-she likes women. A LOT. and also worked hard to become one. just a lot about women going on in her life

C!Schlatt-(???/10)-he's got some shit to sort through n maybe that'll be a realization he makes down the road

C!Foolish-(2/10)-if you tried hard enough you could make him one

C!Tina-(10/10)-many of her actions are motivated by the need to kiss a girl with teeth

C!Eret-(8/10)-strong yuriful vibes

C!Tommyinnit-(9/10)-they are fucking ATTACHED to that label you can pry it from their cold dead hands. she also likes boys n is more platoniromantic than anything but. lesbian critter right there it's important to her

C!Aimsey-(-1000/10)-killed your wife idiot

[russetfoxfur]

alright these are subject to change but ive been getting into headcanons abt the minecraft default skins. not just alex and steve tho im talking bout our underrepresented underappreciated newer defs. under the cut are my headcanoned backstories abt them based off mostly vibes (T-T minecraft plsss you couldve given THEM a story instead of these new fuckin characters in the minecraft movie. pls im begging you)

Efe—a piglin hybrid. They/them. Fighter/builder. They were raised in the Nether as a Brute and journeyed to the Overworld, where they were picked up by Steve and Alex after besting Steve in combat. Infatuated with the water because there’s no water in the Nether—has learned to swim and loves to relax by a lake or ocean. The best fighter of the defs, rivaling Alex in terms of combat, and enjoys learning new combat techniques—loved experimenting with the mace. Builds interiors, something the rest of the defs tend to neglect. In a relationship with Makena and Ari.

Makena—a bee hybrid. Xe/her. Farmer/builder. Xe was part of a Hive before she left to see more of the outside world. She loves gardening and farming and has a green thumb; loves to be helpful and tries her best to better nature in any way she can. Xe’s also very good with agriculture and farming. Loves mobs and the creatures of the world and tends to have five dogs and cats each at minimum. Loves landscaping and creating natural-looking builds; usually calls in Noor or Efe to help her with details. In a relationship with Efe and Ari.

Ari—a fox hybrid. She/her. Redstoner/magic-user. She grew up in a small taiga village and first discovered magic through the local brewery. She was apprenticed to a cleric, but, on an expedition to gather mushrooms for a spell, found Noor and took him in. She resigned from apprenticeship and began to travel the world with him before finding the defs and settling down. She’s very outspoken about her beliefs and hates authority figures with a passion. Very good with enchantments, brewing, and other magical activities. Can hold her own in redstoning due to her cleric apprenticeship. In a relationship with Efe and Makena.

Sunny—a cow hybrid. He/him. Crafter/blacksmith. He grew up as a leatherworker apprentice in a small, cozy village—but, after a zombie chewed off his arm, he abandoned that career to become a blacksmith. He made his own arm and got into redstone to keep his arm maintained—but left his village at the urging of Kai to explore the world. He settled down with her after finding the other defs, and enjoys a plainer life. He’s best at formulating plans and, while he's not utterly useless at it, prefers to let others do the fighting. Mostly makes simple, practical contraptions to ease his quality of life. Also loves fishing. Aroace.

Noor—a frog hybrid. Ze/zem. Culinarist and builder. Ze grew up in the sunny mangrove forests and led a relaxed, easy life, but one day ze returned to find illagers chopping down zir forest. Ze fled and ended up in Ari's village, where ze was taken in and apprenticed as a farmer. Ze and Ari left the village to get revenge on the villagers, and, though ze's settled down with the other defs, ze's never forgotten zir vengeance. Likes the methodical tasks of farming and cooking, and enjoys decorating larger builds. Gay, currently open.

Kai—a breeze hybrid. She/he. Dabbler—leans redstoner/prankster. She’s always lived a relatively mundane life, even though she accidentally spawned in a village instead of the Trial Chamber beneath it and became a villager-breeze, but, after a zombie attack put her village in peril, fled with Sunny and never looked back. He likes accomplishing the most insane achievements he can think of, and loves dragging Sunny into his shenanigans. Bi, currently open.

Zuri—a bat hybrid. He/him. Redstoner/noteblock artist. He grew up in the lush caves, living off glowberries and azalea buds, but, when Alex and Steve explored his cave, he followed them to the surface and moved in with them. He is also pretty bad at fighting, preferring to use redstone to make his life easier. He loves music and redstone, and has the largest store of music discs ever. He loves making his own music and creating cool redstone contraptions. Autistic. Gay-ace, has a crush on Noor.

Alex—a human. She/her. Fighter/builder. The second human ever, created to destroy Herobrine. She chased him away from the burgeoning Minecraft servers and settled down on one. She is undefeated in combat and is otherwise very intelligent. She is also rather friendly and casual, and wants to uphold the peace of the Overworld. Good at creating practical, lived-in builds, grounded in what she knows. Aroace.

Steve—a human. They/them. Miner/builder. The third human ever, Steve was spawned as a test to make sure that Herobrine was indeed a fluke instead of a norm—made up of much of Herobrine’s code, with a few changes to personality and power. Wants a life of peace and simplicity. Easily spooked, especially scared of screaming goats, but resourceful and good at combat. Mute. They tend to build more fantastically than their counterpart, with huge megabuilds and whimsical creations. Aroace.

38. wowwwwwww you really wanna know my dream person dontcha??? But idk. Pretty, ig. but in a way i think is pretty, idc what they think is pretty. Someone I can joke around with, someone i can go to when Im sad, and who will come to me when theyre sad. Someone who wont run away from their problems. Someone whos willing to work on theirself and our relationship and stay with me as i work on my own. Someone who I can snuggle with, someone who i can curl around or have curl around me.

149. Do you truly believe that after death, everything stops? Do you believe one day your mind will just stop working, and there will be nothing left but rot? The soul exists, and something must happen to it. So yes, in my belief, ghosts exist.

[possibilistfanfiction]

Genuine question, how did you figure out or realize the whole being butch thing? What does being butch mean to you?

idk if it was like… figure out? more so just putting a name to something i’ve always felt or known about myself. i came out as a lesbian, then i came out as nb, then i was like well i want gender affirming care so that must mean i am Trans™️, & it’s like… none of those words or kind of… vibes (lol sorry) quite fit? i don’t feel like a cis lesbian, & i actually kind of despise non-binary as a concept (don’t send asks abt this i won’t answer them lol, do ur own thing if u love it that’s cool); i think for me personally Transness is a little too serious & intense & limiting to how i feel. & im a white afab person in a smaller body, & honestly…….. we are often the wooooorst demographic of trans ppl lmao so i just didn’t even rly like some spaces i was in. i got the most important gender affirming care i wanted, i moved & i got married, i got to work remotely etc

& so just sitting with all of that it was like. ok well a lot of neoliberal queer spaces piss me the fuck off; i’m not cis, but i’m not TRANS in the way a lot of ppl (very validly) feel; i do Not like nb. i’d read stone butch blues before, i have a degree in critical theory where i worked a loooot w queer theory, obviously i’ve written abt queerness for ages lol. so then i was just like ah. butch. dyke. YAH! sweet. 100/10 feels amazing i love it

& i think for me i love those words most bc they’re rooted in really radical belief that i have. they carry an ethic with them that, at its best & most intersectional ofc, i want to act on, all the time. i want to show up for people & be protective & tough & strong but i also so deeply want to be nurturing & nourishing. i want to allow myself to be nourished & cared for. i think it feels rly wonderful to have a word for transgressive gender that sums it all up bc people lived it before me. they made that very specific & particular space to experience femininity in a way that doesn’t feel like a noose.

i think also butchness is so expansive! something that never sat right w me abt the way we talk abt transness in the west is that i don’t think there are ‘pre’ & ‘post’ transition selves. like… i’ve never been Not Me? like i came out of the womb a dyke. all i did my entire childhood is run around in the mountains, catalogue leaves, play w my dog, read nancy drew, & avidly watch + play any women’s soccer i could. i loved to fish & mountain bike, i grew up in the desert so gardening to me was a miracle. i never cared abt gender at all beyond like ‘well i guess i’m a girl & the women i admire just won a world cup, they’re badass’ & that was it. i liked boys clothes bc they were practical & felt better, but i just. didn’t think about it. ppl called me a tomboy which was fine, i liked scout in to kill a mockingbird so whatever. but i never felt “non-binary” & i certainly never felt like a boy.

& i am… still just like that lmao. i hated my boobs, point blank day 1 lol, but that doesn’t have to mean i’m trans, or that i’ve somehow changed in a way that requires separation from who i’ve been my whole life. i HATE the language of ‘dead/lived’ name; i hate the weird expectation that u should allow the state to have all of ur gender stuff on record (no fucking thank you, y’all can keep my legal name & i will be flying under the radar lol). so i think western transness rly just. irritates me. doesn’t fit. hasn’t ever fit.

so butchness is like. i am 8 year old jude, i’m just older now. if this makes sense ur butch lmao but. it’s this rly free space to play w masculinity in a way that doesn’t necessitate western transness, & also doesn’t necessitate a separation from maternalism, which i fundamentally believe in. i don’t even rly think of my own care as “gender affirming” & more just like… essence affirming. i didn’t want top surgery so my body could be read as male; i wanted it so i could look like me. i want my clothes to feel & fit in a Very particular way bc that’s how i like them. it’s abt practicality, efficiency, comfort.

& lastly to me butchness has a remarkable space for tenderness that masculinity on its own just cannot hold. like. it’s abt being protective & strong, sure, but it’s in service of others. always always always. so sometimes that looks like communicating calmly, sometimes that looks like infinite small acts of service for ur friends or ur partner. when i think of settling into myself it’s more about returning to who i knew i was when i was a kid, when i was the only person my dog liked & how it felt to sit on the swings when the sun was setting after the monsoon; it’s allowing myself to love like that — caring, & quiet, & full.

ultimately to me butchness is about devotion, more than anything in the world. devoted to safety, devoted to community. no one is devoted the way dykes are bc it’s how we survive. it’s how we have always survived — the steadfastness, the faith, the joy, even thru suffering, to not be boxed in. to help each other. to be funny & kind & thoughtful & not reject the absolute best parts of womanhood for the sake of a western box. to demand care. it’s so beautiful. devotion.

tldr it’s the best

[mythicalwatch101]

HELLO. I AM HERE TO TALK ABOUT KROMER/CANTO 3

kromie is one of my Favorite characters Of All Time and if i see one more person horribly misinterpret her & her story & her motivations i am for real going to distort

FIRST AND FOREMOST

CANTO 3 ISN'T ABOUT ABLEISM

(it's not about racism either. she's not "cyborg racist". god damn it.)

canto 3 is about

religious extremism & societal pressure

PROSTHETICS IN THE CITY ≠ DISABILITY

prosthetics in the pm world are pretty obviously NOT the same as prosthetics in our world, and using them to point towards kromer being ableist is one of the weakest arguments i have ever seen in my entire life. give me ONE piece of evidence of kromer being ableist that doesn't mention prosthetics i fucking dare you

look at that. it's not about needing a missing arm replaced, or legs that you can walk on; it's about doing away with all of the inefficiencies of a flesh and blood body. you can get so much more work done if you don't need to eat or sleep!

unfortunately, there are many ways to be ableist and if she truly was, to the point where it was an important part of her character with an entire canto centered around it (like hating pm-prosthetics is), then i feel like maybe

just maybe

she would express this in other ways

that don’t involve slaughtering people that just happen to be made of metal.

just a thought.

which brings me to my next point

Prosthetics in the City are about class and money and the societal pressure i mentioned earlier

UNNECESSARY PRESSURE TO CONFORM TO THE AESTHETIC

WORTHLESS SURGERIES THAT POOR PEOPLE CAN’T AFFORD AND YET FEEL THE NEED TO GET ANYWAY

SINCLAIR’S BODILY AUTONOMY BEING STRIPPED AWAY FROM HIM SO THAT HE MATCHES HIS FAMILY

sinclair's family even turned their DOG into a robot for god's sake

it's a fad! it's cool to turn yourself into a robot! it's the new thing everyone is doing, so now you have to do it too to fit in with everyone else! even sinclair himself acknowledges this when talking about his family

also adding a ruina screenshot from this post i saw a while ago that i think you all should read

was hesitant to include it because i wanted to make my point without dragging ruina into this, to prove that you don't NEED the context from ruina to understand kromer's beliefs and motivations, but like. look at this. what the fuck.

"adjust emotions" "completely shut off desires" look me in the eyes and tell me this has ANYTHING to do with disability. i dare you. this is some rich people shit

prosthetics are a LUXURY for some, and a TOOL for others; something for rich people to enjoy, and for poor people to either get a shitty version of, or to sell their soul to afford, so that they can survive in the capitalist's dream world! kind of reminds me of cars, actually

(the extra info abt prosthetics from ruina helps, but as someone who has mostly only played limbus & doesn’t have the full context of the other games, it’s obvious even to me that they're not a disability thing)

in conclusion;

kromer is not ableist

she just really really really likes flesh and is super weird about it

to paraphrase/add to something someone said in that post i linked earlier: the district has an "ideal form" for the human body, and kromer has an "ideal form" for the human body, but these "ideal forms" are not the same

she prefers the human body the way it is, and when she sees this "ideal form" that's like the exact opposite of HER "ideal form" starting to take over, she resorts to being a violent bloodthirsty cult leader about it because she sucks ass and is incapable of being normal

she is a bad person and you are allowed to hate her ofc but please for the love of god hate her for something she’s actually done. stop making shit up

[ichorblossoms]

11 and 15 from that oc ask game for yarrow and grimm :)

okay now i'm FINALLY getting around to answer some of these despite my constant desire to talk abt my ocs my brain has NOT been in the mood to sit down and. write out the long thoughtful responses that entails. hell on earth. BUT ANYWAYS THANK YOU FOR SENDING THIS BIRDS I APPRECIATE YOU

also i didn't really proofread this so much as skim it before i hit post so! pardon the typos

11. What does your OC believe in? God(s)? Monsters? Love? The power of unbreakable bonds of friendship to overcome any obstacle? The ability of money to open any door? Or are they indifferent?

yarrow- yarrow believes there is good in people, and that that kindness makes life worth living, it's not a naive optimism by any means—that hope has been beat up and spat on and chewed up but nonetheless they hold a belief that people as a whole and in the abstract are good. as an extension of this, he believes that he personally must give all he can, be as "good" of a person as possible because how can you ask the world to be kinder if you're not kind yourself and how dare you wish for more without giving more in turn

some people though are assholes and there are consequences to being one, they do believe that.

it's not solid yet but i've also been toying with the idea of yarrow being vaguely religious? honeybee's universe has some sort of mutated christianity offshoot that i haven't worked out the specifics for, but i know there's an emphasis on saints and characters do say "jesus christ" n shit. anyways yarrow's not the sort of "pray every night before bed and say grace at every meal" religious, but rather someone who occasionally goes to church moreso for the community aspect than for worship. he doesn't devote his life to serving any god, nor are his actions religiously-motivated, but he takes some comfort in the idea of a higher power

grimm- grimm has always been one to place their faith in themself, their steady hands, and their ability to hit a target before anything else. if they have to place trust in anything else it's wrench, stormy, violence, and cash. unlike yarrow, grimm believes most people are selfish and it is no different—the world isn't out to get you, it plain doesn't give a shit if you live or die and you have to be the one to take what you need to live another day, even if that's someone's life (which to be fair, they don't do frivolously)

and of course later in the story, when they're back to back with each other and at times literally fighting for their lives, they have full faith in one another. yarrow knows grimm will protect him, grimm knows yarrow will bandage their wounds, dog handler and beekeeper, y'know? does this get them in over their heads at times? yes. do they still find a way out of things? not without consequences, but yes

there's a lot more i could go into about their personal beliefs on different things and people and society and whatnot but! i will spare that rambling for the sake of answering another question

15. What places hold significant meaning or memories for your OC? Do they have a positive or negative association with those places?

before i get into this one putting a caveat that there're a lot of places within the story that haven't been developed, so these answers are snippets rather than all-encompassing

rappock- this is the town grimm and yarrow settle down in in p1. yarrow is the one who actually builds a life here, so they view it as home since their life and work is here, and will be here for basically the rest of their life. he has friends there, he's loved there. grimm. on the other hand, has more complex feelings about the place. rappock begins as any other town, but as its relationship with yarrow begins to develop, an anxious dread begins to seep in and one they run away, that feeling keeps them away for ~five years before they can work up the nerve to show their face again. during p2 ofc grimm starts to settle the fuck down and eventually grows to love the place for all the home it is, but it takes time to do that

yarrow's house/doctor's office/clinic whatever (floor plans here in case that's relevant at all)- mostly the feelings are the same as their general feelings on rappock as a whole. yarrow "inherited" the place from the doctor they sort-of-apprenticed under after he(she?they? i only have a personality for them atm) died, so it's theirs and they treat it as such, but there's still this sense that the place will never truly belong to them. his whole life revolves around this place, he works downstairs, lives upstairs, and tries to keep that as separate as he can. grimm likes the house a lot, but struggles to view it as anything other than "yarrow's house that i am staying in"

the desert. like just in general- yarrow prefers civilization and being in the company of other people, but the desert is symbolic of dangerous freedom to him; he can escape into it (and does in p1 and p3), but he can't survive alone out there. he'll wander a little ways into it if he goes on a walk, but never enough to where he can't see town. on the other hand grimm...can't/won't leave the desert. physically they can, they rarely have anything tethering them to any one place and have the rare privilege to easily go north to the forests and cooler plains but they don't really know...how to exist in those places. it's adaptable and can learn, but its animal instincts keep it in the desert where it knows for certain it can survive. grimm grew up traveling across the region with their family and have seen other places in glimpses and short stays, but they spent the most time in the desert, and deep down it also feels like a betrayal to leave that behind when they're the only one alive.

there're some other little places i have half thought-up but! these are the major ones for now hlkghfd

[windvexer]

Hey Chicken, I'm a closeted witch and I'm having a problem with watcher spirits (umbras if you know them that way). Whenever I'm in the hallway I feel a heavy energy, like someone watches my every movement and purposefully causes negative emotions. At first I thought I was making that up but then one of my roomates (non-witchy) told me the same thing. I cleansed and put up wards but I feel like the problem has intensitied since then, I feel like I have just managed to trap this energy inside of the wards. How do I go abt this? Since I live with five other people I need to be subtle and cause as little commotion as possible but I'm afraid some banishing is in order. Any advice?

Yes, banishing is in order. Cleansing is not the same as banishing. A rabid dog can be loose in your house and cleansing it will just make it a clean rabid dog. Putting it outdoors is the solution if you actually want it to leave.

It is also my belief that putting up wards does absolutely trap things inside. An analogy is that once you've recognized the rabid dog is loose, you give it a bath and then seal shut all the doors and windows so it can't leave.

There is no reason to be afraid that a banishing is in order. Banishing is not an advanced, malicious, or evil action. Banishing also does not mean you are dealing with something serious.

Just as people say that cleansing = cleaning, we can also consider that banishing = showing the door. A person can clean very harshly with bleach and ammonia, or gently with nothing but running water. Likewise, a banishment can be an intense and harsh act. Or, it can be as simple as asking someone to leave.

In other words, just because something needs to be banished does not automatically mean that you are dealing with a scary or advanced situation.

Try taking down the wards you've recently created, performing a series of banishment actions, and the re-warding.

If you need to be subtle about your efforts, I recommend actions such as the following:

A spell such as the red pepper spellbreaker, but with efforts directed towards chasing away these unwanted entities

Enchanting plain candles with banishing energies and leaving them lit in various areas

Enchanting cleaning supplies with banishing energies and using them during normal cleaning efforts (especially floor washes)

It is more than fine to carry out multiple actions over the course of a few days, but avoid having a long gap between the end of your banishment efforts and re-warding.

In order to avoid having to re-ward and un-ward multiple times, try using divination to test the results of your banishment. Tarot can be used in a modified way for a simple reading. Focus on the efforts of your banishment, shuffle, and draw a single card.

If the card is any swords card or the Devil, the unwanted force is still present.

Do not forget that sometimes, it is necessary to wait for a day or two for unwanted energies to clear the air. It is in these situations after a banishment has been performed that cleansing, to freshen up the household, is very useful.

If banishment proves to be difficult, try again with invoking various powers (for example, solar or martian energies; basil or onyx; etc.)

Although this is entirely based on personal experience, I never recommend using "visualization and willpower" style magic for banishments, especially if the visualization draws on your own personal energy. IME, when people have failed to banish in this manner tend to be successful as soon as they switch to working with physical ingredients and helpful powers via correspondences.

Taylor Swift albums as Bungo Stray Dogs characters

1) Debut👢🎸🚜

obviously, the first character than came in my mind when thinking about debut was kenji mirazawa and do i even need to explain? the country vibes, the innocence and optimism...it fits him so well. because one of the biggest themes of debut is about finding our place in this world (there's even a song titled this way) i think that also tachihara michizou is another great fit

2) Fearless👗🐎🪞

after spending a lot of time thinking about it, i realized kyouka izumi is definitely a fearless girlie. i mean, fearless is the grown up version of debut, kenji and kyouka are the same age but the later is much more mature while still maintaining a kind of innocence. fearless is an album about overcoming our fears, which is an important theme in kyouka's character. she is fearless.

3) Speak Now🎇💍🎤

probably at first impact this will not make sense, but i promise you it does. kunikida doppo is speak now. sn is an album about standing up for ourself and give importance to our opinion. one of the biggest traits of kunikida's character is the firmly belief in his ideals, which really resonates with speak now's message at its core. also, it's literally canon that kunikida has irrealistic standards regarding his ideal partner, and many speak now songs match his deluluness lol

4) Red 🧣🥀💄

the first bsd character that comes into my mind when thinking about red is yosano akiko. and for obvious reasons: i always thought of red as the "wine aunt" album, and yosano is definitely a wine aunt. it's a particular album, that goes from happy to sad, like a rollercoaster. knowing yosano's backstory and how much of a rollercoaster was it, i really think they match so well

5) 1989🗽🎉📸

ehm ehm, idk abt you, but i think chuuya nakahara was definitely born in 1989. all the songs on it are soooo chuuya it's insane. i wish you would? all you had to do was stay? bad blood? new romantics? my dear ball of sunshine (he kword tons of ppl) he's soo 1989 stop

6)Reputation🐍♟️🪦

i love reputation, because it's lover but emo. it has got a bad reputation, and it lives in it, it feeds that bad reputation, it wants to pass for the scary bad guy. but, if you look past behind look what you made me do and i did something bad, most of the songs are love songs. and most of all, they are delulu songs! delicate, gorgeous, king of my heart, call it what you want...they are basically song where they worship the person in question, they would die to get back even a bit of the love they gave, but we don't know if the feelings are reciprocal. if you reread all of this again, you'll notice how, other than describing reputation, i'm also describing akutagawa ryunosuke.

7)Lover🎀💌🏹

and if reputation and lover are the different sides of the same coin, if aku is reputation atsushi nakajima is lover. he's the light after the dark, he's been recovering from a very bad mental state. i also think that lucy maud montgomery is very lover, she has that hopeless romantic vibes.

8) Folklore🌲🏞🧚‍♀️

okay with folklore i literally went with vibes only instead of a deep analysis of the characters but listen: folklore is about these stories, right? y'know who is a novelist who writes? edgar allan poe, exactly. and some lyrics reminded me of sigma, so there's that also. for instance, the whole mirrorball song. or "i can go anywhere i want just not home" from my tears ricochet?? he's folklore stop

9) Evermore🍂🥂🏚

i don't think i even need to explain why osamu dazai is evermore. the vibes, the lyrics, it's all there. songs like evermore or right where you left me. i also got evermore vibes from oda sakunosuke, but for entirely different reasons

10)Midnights🌒🌃⛈️

and lastly midnights is for ranpo edogawa. he's the mastermind. his mind waters in all different ways. he relates to all the fears depicted in midnights, the fears that creep into you in the middle of the night

[shkika]

I might end up taking u up on that offer this is so so soo fun

I really enjoy it when people make moon mad at fp..like how could she not be yes she cares about fp a lot but siblings don't exactly...do that to eachother very often I think (but maybe they do /j the woes of being an only child)

I think not being able to harm artificer did him good in the end (therapy dog!!) like he would have definitely just wanted to send that thing FLYING into the sun but he couldn't!! he was forced to just deal with it and eventually he realises hey. Maybe this thing isn't so bad... honestly I think he really needed something like that right then given his tendency to push people away (thinking abt how he BLEW UP srs' poor overseer. That made me jump actually i didnt expect it i sat still for long enough to get myself blown up too it was kind of funny...aside from the trek back of course) (ALSO THE ADS HELP thats golden)

Adding onto that like....him being a silly little loser that wants to do everything by himself and the like loving the attention etc I really think that like... the time period he was built in only made it worse??

Like......i feel that being built when he was added to a sort of pressure of needing to feel superior, to not be one of those bugs in mazes. To have something with like a genuine true path ahead instead of blindly grasping for answers

Like...I guess he'd want to prove just how good he is by doing it without any sort of help and he just has so MUCH to figure out by himself that he just...builds that pressure more and more and that's gotta be too much at some point

^^ I like the idea of the triple affirmative stuff happening like...around this point in time (forgive me if my timeline is terribly off) but anyways like..it kind of just fucks up everything for the dude...like all he's worked for is kinda just for nothing so then it leads to everything with the rot as like some sort of last resort. Like he knows the risks but he just cant bring himself to care like he's in such a vunerable state he doesn't think about how it'd affect moon until all of a sudden there's a forced message being sent his way, but even then I guess being younger than like everyone in the group he doesn't fully grasp like oh. This is as bad as it is. Until moons can comes crashing down and hes left infecting himself with the stuff

Anyway you are so very right with the echo actually I haven't thought very much on the shaded citadel but it must have...not been pleasant going through the rains knowing that there's so many others unaffected by it

Sorry this response is so late actually I've been multitasking to all hell but RRAGHGJ squishing the iterators in my hand like stress balls I am so normal about this game

please do! <3 ramble incoming

Moon being angry at Pebbles is fun. I love seeing different interpertations! Though I do think she doesn’t hold actual bitterness towards him in my personal belief.

The idea that she isn’t actually *angry* angry at him makes her very tragic to me. By all means she knows his actions are inexcusable. What she went through was horrifying and painful and she acknowledges that. Nsh even mentions she’s always had way too much patience for him and that she really tried to be a good big sister to him.

So as his big sister and someone who guided him in early days I can see her being unable to feel spite towards him. He fucked up, hes now sick and rotting and it all fills her with grief. It’s all just unfortunate and sad! (definitely see moon being a little hater with salty comments sometimes. as she does but most of her anger is reserved for their shitty parents)

Pebbles desperately wanting to feel superior is something really fun to me!! Absolutely see it! (idk why u went and became close friends with guy who called you dumb and naive but u do you 🤷 maybe u like that. likr OoOo hes the only one that listens to my theories and he calls me dumb <33) We know he learns about what happened to sliver from suns, so I can only assume that happened before he was made..? But the game is vague enough for u to hc it as you want honestly.

What he did was out of desperation for sure! He never wanted to even involve Moon according to what he says while commenting on a pearl by Arti. It was just kind of impossible.

I think what Suns told him just left a big scar on the poor guy. Not only is he being told he never mattered, he has to accept he’ll slowly break down and not even die while still trying to solve their issue he doesn’t even care about. He wanted the feeling of power over his own self back and he wanted to desperately escape. Feeling helpless is the worst.

He thought he could be fast enough and not harm Moon and then failed! He doomed her and got a very bad case of the rot ( consequences of my actions) ((another bracket but the poor fucker tried to cure himself all the way until arti campaign! sad!!)) along with his failure becoming gossip material and a sensation as we learn from spearmaster logs. Which is why I assume he closes all communications.

Also Moon forced many many broadcasts onto him while dying :) not only partly the reason why he failed the project, it also further cemented his helplesness.. because he can’t do anything to help! A common phrase you hear from him is “I can’t even help myself”.

It’s a little treat in almost all scug campaigns iirc.

Also echoes are all so interesting I love them and their silly little opinions. Shout out to the one who told arti to stop being such an angry bitch <3

trump opinions

i have a lot of complicated feelings abt donald trump for one he is an objectively evil man and i want to make my stance clear on him first and foremost hes a racist, xenophobic, imperialist, capitalist pedophile & serial rapist; i am NOT a centrist i dont want anyone walking away from this post taking away anything irt my feelings on him besides that i think time in alcatraz would be too lenient a punishment for him i think he needs to be slathered in peanut butter and thrown in a ring full of starving dogs and the footage of him being literally torn limb from limb broadcast on national tv, i think what he did to those girls on little saint james is enough to warrant him being executed by firing squad and knowing that they saw him not only getting away scot free but also being president of the fucking united states in spite of it because hes rich and white makes me hope he gets an inoperable cancer in his brain.

i think the fact that he was elected in and of itself, the fact that the electoral college (infernal invention to begin with) overrode a majority vote in front of the entire country in favor of literally one of the most hated men in modern times, should have pushed democrats way left but that would have required them challenging their beliefs about america. also the average us president is a racist, xenophobic, imperialist, capitalist pedophile & serial rapist and literally the only difference between trump and any of the other fucking american figureheads is his willingness to voice his opinions. it pisses me off that trump has become a sort of boogeyman not because he isnt evil but because hes like almost this cartoonish caricature of american policy that democrats now have someone to posit as the Big Bad and make their own incredibly racist capitalist warlords look "morally upstanding" in comparison, the fact that im still seeing people insist you vote for biden makes me want to scrape my face off on the tar. it doesnt matter to them that biden's politics are not meaningfully different from trump's, it doesnt matter that obama's presidency (under which biden was VP) laid the groundwork for trump's aggressive and bloody immigration policies and that obama and previous presidents are responsible for not codifying the laws that the trump administration would later overturn, it doesnt matter that biden is actively funding an alt-right ethnostate's imperial crusade and genocide of the indigenous people of the levant, it doesnt matter that biden has his own library of sexual abuse allegations under his belt and that he was a segregationist in recent memory. because democrats are not leftists, they dont give a fuck about progress, they care about saving face for the state, their modus operandi is dodging threats to the status quo and maintaining enough plausible deniability that any american president can be falsely posited as the face of empowerment and social progress while ordering drone strikes and maintaining military bases in overseas countries. biden smiles for the camera and shakes hands the way hes supposed to its all a fucking puppet show and no one gives a fuck as long as they feel like the peace is being kept. got away from me a little bit here but like i feel like donald trump's election peeled the facade back on what a fucking evil and rotten country america is and maybe thats part of the reason he's become this mythical figure to democrats despite not really being meaningfully different from any other president in terms of his beliefs and policies

again it lkinda got away from trump for a second but his cult following is another thing. like yes trump is in his own right a cult leader but it's like... he's not a bill gothard. he's not a joseph smith. he's not a jim jones. because donald trump is a very obviously unintelligent man and hes also either senile or the years of cocaine use and medical cocktails have fucked up his brain to the point of being barely functional. and i mean its not like there havent been cult leaders or fundamentalist juggernauts that were incredibly stupid or insane. look at mark driscoll or kenneth copeland or fuck honestly even people like charles manson or roch theriault. but trump lacks charm. do you know what i mean? he lacks grace or prose. hes not well spoken he can barely string together a fucking coherent sentence. i believe the only reason hes gained the following he has is because of the power afforded to men like him by our society. i mean fuck even elon musk has a similar thing going on despite the fact he is also observably unintelligent and has an incredibly unlikeable personality. donald trump grew like a weed out of the poison soil of reagan-era economics and we all know money is power in america. honestly i cant even believe he was able to like, apply to run for president. there's not a point where you're like, considered psychologically unfit to hold a position of power? can literally anyone be president? can i be president? fucks sake didnt jim bob duggar run for president... what a fucking nightmare

[theloveinc]

1 and 2 for the violence! ❤️

!!! thank you, anon!!! hope this is alright and not too long for you LOL!! <3

the character everyone gets wrong

we already know how i feel about shinso. And I'm really glad our dabi depictions are moving away from the pandemic interpretations of him (the dark content always slapped, but c'mon. man is a wet dog!!!) AND i feel like bakugo's too easy for this question..................... so i'm going to go with hawks.

like, i def think we all see him as a suave and sneaky freak, but i know. i know personally. just how bad of a freak he is. and not in a sexy way, like... he's obviously, definitely sexy. But he is also. crazy. And i think not even Hori knows the extent of to which.

but i do. i know.

i know he has problems that we'll never even have a chance to see. things about him that run so deep not even you could fix, and that NEVER get talked about. and they're the kind of things that could drive people away if they didn't stop to understand... because it takes ages for him to get comfortable enough around you to drop the persona which has taken his whole life to create.

cuz in my head, hawks is diagnosed OCD, contamination OCD, touch negative, won't EVER invite you over, has disordered eating, and numerous other things which manifest in strange ways. Ways that make sense, but ways that don't really allow for other people to enter his life unless he's willing to make space for them.

and you know what? i love him for it. I adore him for it. why isn't this a more common belief or depiction of him????

2. a compelling argument for why your fave would never top or bottom

my most compelling argument for why bakugo would never bottom is because he's uncomfortable w/ butt stuff. hands down. for the longest time just doesn't *get* ass play, which is really funny if u think about it, because in my mind, he's BISEXUAL OF COURSE, but has never really gotten over this weird squick he has about doing anal himself LMAO.

plus, bc he wouldn't require you to wash out your ass unless you wanted to... he probably wouldn't think about it either????????? unless it came up???

also i'm kinda a believer in prude bakugo just a little bit... in the sense that i see him getting kinda squirrely when people he's not fully comfortable w/ talk about sex (and esp. publicly)............ so i think he just doesn't bring up bottoming for a long bc he doesn't trust anyone enough to ask about it😭😭😭😭😭

(lmao why am i crying thinking abt the first time bakugo douches LMFAOOOO probs takes him like eight tries over 24 hours.... also him being twelve and learning abt enemas for the first time and just being so. 😟)

but really my actual argument is just. he wouldn't bottom bc i wouldn't top. LOOOOOL🤓 and whatever the case is for you!!! he's a verse <3

(choose violence ask game!)

[marmett]

also i think felix's ending slides and the point of his character were a little weird? like i love felix i think hes a rlly fun character, i love the detail in his room where he has a book of anarchist theory that has clearly never been opened and i can just imagine him getting it and thinking "yeah im totally gonna read this and be SUCH a good anarchist" and then he never does.

but i think my problem w/ the way his character is handled is that like... his ending slide has this thing where he didnt REALLY understand the revolution and he just wanted the flashy rebellion and he didnt expect all the WORK afterward, ugh. (but he does step up and do it).

and idk, it just feels weird to me, in this game, for a reason i cant quite place. i think it also goes back to how graham was handled. yes, u can side w/ graham, but the game feels like its pushing u not to by revealing he was involved in getting a bunch of innocent people killed. and thats a huge problem w/ leftist characters, instead of engaging w/ their ideology its common to be like, "well they just went too far! they killed people!" and u basically have to kill graham bc hes beyond reasoning, and siding w/ him gets u an objectively worse outcome than if u kill him and then go for compromise.

and felix is the only true leftist companion character u get, ellie, vicar max, nyoka, and parvati are all kind of centrist in their beliefs, they dont support the corporations, but they also dont support revolution bc they cant imagine anything else. which makes sense, i do think that would be the common, majority opinion, so giving most of ur characters that belief system makes sense. but then it puts the burden of representing a more left-leaning belief system onto felix, who doesnt have any theoretical ideas and who's leftism is shown to be naive, and graham, who's bad and needs to be put down like a dog bc he killed people. and theres phineas too, but hes in the game so little and just says stock leftist phrases like calling people bootlickers.

its just very bizarre, the two sympathetic leftist characters are very surface level, and the one who cares abt theory and ideology u cant rlly engage w/ bc hes treated like a monster who went too far.

[meyeheart]

Rabbit people can be p insane sometimes abt educating others on pet rabbit care (myself included) but it’s at least partially bc good rabbit care is sooo misunderstood. I’ve been thinking abt this post I saw a couple weeks back where someone (who had previously owned rabbits) claimed that the best way to keep rabbits was in wire cages. Which ummmm ???!! Good luck finding any reputable bunny rescues or orgs that agree with that. They also discussed how, in their opinion, rabbits shouldn’t be bonded bc they have to be neutered/spayed first in order to be successfully bonded. And since neutering/spaying is an ‘unnatural’ process, that means that bonding rabbits together is unnatural and therefore should never be done. This is the most baffling take I’ve ever even seen abt rabbit care.

Rabbit bonding is a complicated process for sure, and is not always going to be successful, even if both rabbits are neutered/spayed. A person has to be decently experienced with rabbits and knowledgeable abt bonding to be able to conduct the process safely. But to say that 1) it should never be done and 2) it’s unnatural, is a super weird and harmful over exaggeration. Obviously they’re relying on the naturalistic fallacy, which is so 🤨. Almost all pet dogs and cats get neutered/spayed to help with aggression. My 3 dogs would not be able to live in the same household if they were not neutered. Why is it suddenly a problems if rabbits have to get neutered/ spayed to live together? Contrary to a common belief, domesticated rabbits are quite genetically and behaviorally* different from wild rabbits. If their point of comparison for what a ‘natural’ rabbit should look and act like is a wild rabbit, then the premise was flawed from the start. Neutering and spaying is not only smth that’s completely safe to do to rabbits, it’s smth that should be done to all pet rabbits. Not only does it help with aggressive/ territorial behavior, there is currently a huge problem with the oversaturated breeder market.

And see, you might be thinking that this post I’m discussing is just an extreme fringe opinion abt rabbit care, but unfortunately the topic of rabbit bonding is a pretty consistent point of discourse amongst rabbit owners and this particular post had many people agreeing with them in the notes so. Scream. People commonly think that pet rabbits are completely docile with no boundaries, or their aggressive/territorial behavior gets over sensationalized** ://///
