Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam

Even though the official title is Ho Chi Minh City everyone that lives there call it Saigon. There is a huge cultural difference between what I saw in Hanoi and Saigon. In Hanoi everything is about communism and Ho Chi Minh. In Siagon there is still a lot of resentment about what they call the civil war. The wealth is centralized within the controlling party and most people live on a income of $300 US/month. You have to pay to go to school and you see children on the streets selling lottery tickets to live. All the boys are required to go in the military for two years. Vietnam is really worried about China and the islands it has in the South China Sea so 60% of the drafted men go in the Navy. One of the guides told me that the Vietnam relatives in the States send 20 billion dollars into Vietnam each year.

The thing that impressed me the most was all the motorcycles. There are 7 million 150 cc motorcycles in the country. There are special lanes for the cycles but there are still many accidents with 25 people killed each day. New they cost $1650 US dollars but many go to Cambodia to buy used motorbikes. There are cars but the sales tax is 250% of the sales price so only people associated with the government have one.

There are 20 million people in Saigon and 100 million in Vietnam. There are 20 different dialects of Vietnamese spoken in the country. The main industry is farming with 2 million metric tons of rice exported every year and the country is the second largest exporter of very good coffee after Brazil.

We visited the Mekong Delta area where we saw a large fishing industry. The boats have large very bright lights attached to the boats to attract squid. If you look close at the boat photos below you will see them. The boats go out for 20 days. The delta is 3 km across.

I visited the Can Cu Vietcong tunnel area located West of Saigon. There are 200 km of tunnels spread over 80 square miles. It was the main planning aret for the Vietcong in southern Vietnam. It was used by 4000 people as a bomb shelter when the US B52 bombers attacked the area. I went into one of the tunnels and it was not a pleasant place. The lady in the video is making rice paper.

I didn’t have to go to Vietnam during the war but had many cousins and friends who did so it was interesting to visit Vietnam to see how things have evolved. There is still a very strong American influence in the country and the country is still evolving. The government has a very tight controlling grip on the country thru the military and police but the people certainly practice free capitalism. They have to be very careful about saying anything negative about the government or they will be severely punished. Real freedom comes at a cost.

HI NISHIIII, for the event can I get kaiser with spicy, 🍮 and rivals to lovers ? 🍮 THANK U 😼

ORDER 10: READY TO GO !

kaiser + spicy + eye contact + rivals to lovers w.c. 1k+

note. this is for you, no.1 kaiser kisser 🤭 it literally took everything in me (fighting my demons) not to spoil the story for you cus i am a chronic yapper, and i tell you basically everything i write LMAO

interested in more? check out the lounge !

your team would probably shun you if they saw you right now— fraternizing, if you could even call it that, with the enemy. 

you can’t find it in you to blame them, reminding yourself of what position you’d been in, just ten minutes prior. the score on the big screen read 3:2, bright and bold and red, and mocking you— no, mocking your team. the tangible, irrefutable proof that your team had just suffered one of its most devastating losses of the season. you remind yourself of the way their shoulders quivered, the way they all turned away from one another, as they tried to process this grief on their own. you think that you probably should’ve felt numb, that your ears should’ve been ringing as the cheers of the stadium droned on and on, and that you should’ve felt the crushing weight of the loss that your team had just suffered. that as their manager, who had seen them through their highs and lows, it was also your duty to feel what they do. 

and yet, there you were, blatantly ogling the man who stood in the center of the field; gloating in his victory, accepting the praises that rained on him, all while staring right at you too. kaiser always makes a show out of it, always making sure your eyes are locked onto him as he lifts his shirt— fingers gripping the hem of his jersey as he pulls the fabric up, to dab at the sweat that lines the crown of his forehead, exposing his glistening skin and the way the sweat rolls off the ridges of his abs. 

you know he finds entertainment in the way your eyes travel down, almost instinctively, trailing the singular drop of sweat that rolls down the line of his body, before your eyes snap back up. he’s smug, irritatingly so, and all too aware of the fact that you could not rip your eyes away from him. he does this, every time; you fall for it, every time. 

it’s like a trance, and the shame you feel after is overwhelming. only then do you find yourself walking away, back to the tunnel and the hallways of the stadium, trying to bury the shame and the image of his body into the depths of your mind.

but, like everything else with kaiser, he never makes it easy to forget him. he's always hot on your heels, lingering around you, reminding you of his presence. to rub in his win, or for something else, you're never really sure.

"you know, it hurts me that you always avoid me after.” you freeze, every muscle in your body tensing at the familiar sound of kaiser’s voice. he’s standing there, leaning casually against the wall, arms crossed over his chest, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. he still hasn’t changed out of his jersey, skin still glistening with sweat, and chest heaving— ignoring the way the rest of his team walks off into the locker rooms without him. “can’t stand being close to me after a win? or is it something else that’s got you all riled up?"

your stomach churns at the insinuation, and despite yourself, your body betrays you— your head turns to face him, eyes flicking to glance at him, and catching his gaze. but the feeling is short-lived, and you peel your eyes away from him almost immediately, finding faux fascination in the clipboard in your hands. “i’m not sure i’m catching your drift,” you lie. 

the scoff under his breath is hard to miss, with the way the sound slightly echoes in the, now empty, hallways. you hear everything in here— the rustle of his jersey as he unfurls his arms, his footsteps, and the way they get louder with each step as he stalks closer to you. the deliberation in his steps, and the way he takes long, but slow, strides towards you. enjoying the way your body tenses in anticipation. 

“you know what i mean. ogling a player from the opposing team, huh?” kaiser appears from behind you, and you instinctively flinch at his voice. you can feel the way his breath tickles the skin of your nape, lacking a concept of personal space or maybe just not caring, as leans down to level with you. “you seemed to be enjoying yourself back there.”

“don’t flatter yourself,” you huff, looking the other way as he perches his chin on top of your shoulder. you can feel the heat of his gaze as he looks at side of your face, intense and unyielding— and flustering. “i wasn’t.” a lie.

kaiser knows. “sure.” because he catches the way the tips of your ears bloom into a deep crimson, and he laughs softly at this— a low, deep sound that reverberates in your ears. “you hate me, right?” he questions you, but the smirk is evident in his tone. 

“i do,” you say with as much conviction, another lie, but determined not to give him the satisfaction of seeing you bothered— affected, by him. “i despise you,” and you want to believe it yourself. but your voice betrays you, it falters, it loses that animosity that has his smirk spreading into a grin. 

you make the mistake of glancing at him again, watching as something flickers in his eyes. something along the lines of intrigue, satisfaction, like you’d said exactly what he had wanted to hear. a bold lie, a challenge for him to disprove because he knows you’re lying. that, despite claiming that you despise him, you can’t stop the way you crave to see him. 

“then,” he straightens his body, no longer leaning on you for support. and as you try to look away from him again, to escape him, he stops you. his left hand crawls up your left arm, leaving a line of goosebumps in its path as it travels up— you feel the way they hover over your shoulder, and then the junction of your neck, tracing your jaw as his deft fingers find their way to your chin. it’s aggressive— the way he tilts your chin to the right, forcing you to glance up at him, right into his eyes. “why do you never push me away?” he asks, his voice dipping in a way that makes your pulse race. “unless, you’re secretly enjoying this.”

[flippinpancakes64]

can you please write about how the cullens would react if they thought their so was dead?? like maybe Alice had a vision or someone thought they saw them get killed butttt they're actually alive

The Cullens thinking their S/O Died

I originally told myself I was done for the night since I already have three posts written and cued to be posted.... but I just kept thinking about this one sooooo

Sorry if this doesn't make sense it's like 2:30 am lol

Thank you for requesting and I hope you like this!

Edward:

You left earlier that morning to go to a job interview in the city

He kissed you goodbye, watched you walk out the door, and thought that would be it

He was just sitting around, watching some football game that Emmett had on the TV when he saw the familiar beginnings of one of Alice's visions

She has so many throughout the day that he really only half pays attention to it

But once he sees your face he is fully alert

You swiping his credit card to buy a subway ticket, you onboard the train, the train crashing, you dead

Instantly he is up

He knows that Alice's visions are only a possibility

But too many of them have come true for him to ignore this

He calls you, nothing

He texts you, nothing

He checks the statements for his credit card and he sees the pending purchase of one train ticket

His heart drops

Instantly he flies out of the door, running as fast as he can to the subway station

There's a crowd of people running up from the tunnel, trampling each other in their attempt to get out

Smoke plumes out, he can smell fire and gasoline

And just as he's about to run down there to see if he can find you, find what's left, maybe even save you, he hears a voice

"Edward? What are you doing here... oh my god! What happened down there?!"

It's you

You, alive, healthy, and drinking a coffee

Before you can question him further on what happened he is wrapped around you, holding you so close you feel like you're being crushed

Your interview was cancelled last minute so you went to go get a coffee before coming home

Edward says you're never going on the subway again, sorry

And maybe never leaving the house without him again

Alice:

The two of you were out and about, having a day shopping at the mall

She was crafting outfit after outfit in her mind while you sat in the dressing room, waiting for her to bring her next outfit in for you to try on

You leave the room to see her still flitting about the store, pulling various items off the racks and holding them up to the items already overflowing in her arms

You call to her that you're going to use the bathroom, and she hums a little to let you know that she heard you before continuing with her planning

She hears you walk away before a vision flashes harshly into her mind

You walking into the bathroom, two people with guns having an argument, you caught in the wrong place at the wrong time

She instantly drops everything she was holding

All of the clothes hitting with a thud to the floor

She doesn't even register the store attendant yelling at her to pick up her mess before she is sprinting out the room

But she doesn't even make it two paces outside of the store before she hears two gunshots, one right after another

She runs fast, she doesn't care that people might see that she's way too fast

She follows the scent of blood to the bathroom and hears cries of pain from inside

But then she smells you

Not inside the bathroom, but across the walkway

She turns and there you are, standing at a little boutique directly across from the bathroom, staring with your mouth wide open

In the next breath, before you can even blink she is right in front of you, hanging onto you like a koala and hurriedly explaining everything that just happened

After you catch your breath and she finally lets go, you turn your head to the boutique and look into the window

"So... is now a bad time to say that I think this dress would look pretty on you?"

She just laughs and kisses you so hard

Jasper:

You're out on a trip with your friends

Not too far away, just about two towns over

It's your best friend's birthday and they wanted to have a little weekend trip to celebrate

You'd left earlier that morning

Promising Jasper that you'd call when you all got there

But it's been hours

4 hours, 27 minutes, and 39 seconds

Not that he's been counting or anything

The drive should have taken 30 minutes max

So why haven't you called?

He's already tried to give himself every explanation

That you're busy, that you got caught in traffic, that you just forgot

But as the hours go by he's getting more and more anxious

He's already called and texted a couple of times, but you haven't even read the messages

He's about to call again as he feels a rush of anxiety come from Carlisle's office

In the next moment the man is down the stairs, doctor's bag in hand, throwing his coat over his shoulders

"Carlisle, what's happening?"

"Three people have just been rushed to the clinic. There was a car accident nearby. They veered off the road in the middle of the woods... who knows how long they've been out there..." he says gravely, and rushes out the door

If Jasper wasn't anxious before, he definitely is now

Before Carlisle can pull out of the driveway, Jasper throws the car door open and sits in the passenger seat

As soon as they arrive, he flies out of the car

He's examining every inch of the clinic

He doesn't even care about the strong scent of human blood in the air

He's looking for one more familiar

And he doesn't find it

He begins questioning all of the police officers nearby, asking if there were more people, if there was a second car, or if they've seen you

They kick him out

He follows the scent again to track the car

At the scene he sees the car that crashed

A bloody heap of metal

But no you

Suddenly he hears a mechanical buzz, but not from his phone

No, he recognizes the cute jingle

It's easy to find your phone hidden amongst the treeline

Your friend picks up and he explains where he found the phone

Hearing your voice on the other side is like hearing an angel

He goes home to get a car before driving it to you

The kiss he gives you before he leaves again to let you enjoy your trip is filled with love and happiness

Rosalie:

You Rosalie had gone out

She needed one more car part before her greatest car restoration ever would be complete

She was driving that very car, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air that she had been fixing up for a couple months

She'd saved it from a scrapyard, and it was missing pretty much everything that a car needs to function

But after months it was finally done

Almost

The car needed only one simple thing, new gears for the window cranks

She rolled up to the auto parts store and parked the car outside

You said you wanted to stay in the car, preferring to sit

She said she would only be a minute

It didn't take her long to find the piece she needed

As she was about to check out she saw a crowd of people lined up at the front door and a couple people running outside

Through the large windows at the front of the building she could she huge flames and black smoke surrounding a bright teal car

Her bright teal car

That you were inside of

Her mind worked a mile a minute as she dropped the steel parts to the floor

The cranks don't work, that means the windows can't open

She locked the car, that means you couldn't open the doors

She replaced the glass to make it bulletproof, that means you can't break the glass

You are inside of that car burning alive

As she runs up she sees four men behind her car, next to the trunk

And in the middle is you

Covered in soot with a couple of scratches

But breathing, alive

She runs up and hugs you so tightly you can't breathe

"I'm so sorry, I locked the doors, and the windows! How did you get out?"

"The trunk... I'm sorry Rose, I tore the backseat out"

She turns to see the trunk of her car open, with the backseat completely pulled out place

And all she does is laugh and kiss you

Emmett:

The sky was a dark grey, and thick clouds were covering the sun

The Cullens stood in their baseball uniforms, waiting for the ball to be returned so Rosalie could pitch it again

Up to bat was Emmett

A heavy metal bat was swinging in his arms

He shot you a wink out of the corner of his eye, and turned his attention back to Rosalie

With a huff she focused, and threw the ball to Emmett so fast you couldn't even see it

You heard the loud crack of thunder ring from Emmett's bat, but almost as soon as you heard it, you felt it

Like a ball made of pure fire, the baseball hit square into your chest

The force of it knocked you straight off your feet and sent you flying into the woods behind you

A good 30 feet at least

And as if that wasn't enough, your back collided with a tree, knocking the tree over and onto the ground

The force of it knocked you unconscious, which would probably be a blessing in this scenario tbh

Everybody was quick to run to your side, Emmett and Carlisle taking position up by your head

Carlisle wasted no time in picking you up and running to take you to the clinic

And of course Emmett followed

He held you in the back seat of the car, whispering apologies and professions of love into your unhearing ears, promising that he will never do this again

It takes a couple of hours and maybe two or three surgeries, but you do wake up

And Emmett is by your side the whole time

He was fully prepared to turn you if he needed to

But the moment he sees your eyes open and your doped-up smile, he finally relaxes

"You're pretty cute... are you single?"

"Darling, I just hit you with a baseball going the speed of a jet plane-"

Esme:

Your brother was getting married and asked if you would attend

Of course you said yes

But there were no plus ones

And it was tropical

Which meant flying to an island somewhere all by yourself

Not only is it nerve-wracking to travel alone, but it was also going to be boring

So Esme promised that she would have her phone on her at all times so you could facetime her if you wanted to

She even paid for your wifi on the plane

You had been on call with her for hours at that point

From the time you got out of your taxi, found your way to your terminal, went through TSA, and finally boarded your plane

It was about halfway into your flight and the conversation had naturally slowed down

You were only occasionally exchanging words

When suddenly your service cut out like a light

No warning, no crackling before, and no explanation

She tried calling you back, but nothing

She tried texting, but nothing

She was getting worried

And it definitely didn't help that only about 20 minutes later, the news anchor started talking about a plane that just crashed in the Pacific

Which is where you were

A couple hours off the coast of California

Which is where you were

From Spirit Airlines

Which is the plane you were on

She was beginning to panic

Alice couldn't see you either

She was just getting silence

Cue the whole house panicking

She went through every phase of grief in the span of a couple of hours

She was convinced you were gone, but at the same time she didn't want to believe it

Suddenly her phone started to buzz

"*Yawn*, Hey Esme. Sorry about that, I guess I fell asleep... *yawn* anyway what were we talking about?"

Stunned silence

She just laughs incredulously

Carlisle:

It's just another day the clinic

Slow, boring, a couple of broken arms, a couple pregnancy tests, nothing special

When he hears the sirens of an ambulance pulling up outside the main entrance

Like bats out of hell, three paramedics come rushing in, towing a gurney with someone on top of it

Someone that smells a hell of a lot like you

His heart drops, his breathing stops, he freezes

The paramedics are talking quickly but he can only hear broken phrases

Cliff... fell... severely injured... needs help... lost blood...

All he can smell is you

All he can see is the shirt that Alice got you

The shoes that Esme lets you borrow sometimes

The color of your hair

But no face

The face is smashed in, presumably from the aforementioned fall that the EMTs were talking about

He tries his hardest, he does everything he's supposed to, but when the monitor flatlines, there's only one more option

Just as he raises your wrist to his mouth to bite, his phone vibrates in his pocket

He wants to ignore it, but something tells him not to

And on the face of his apple watch he sees a text message

My Love: "Heyyyyyyyyyyyy... can I use your credit card to order some pizza??? I'm STARVING!!!! :)))"

You later explain that those were clothes that Alice had donated

Apparently no one washed them, so they still held a lot of your smell

He took a week off of work from the clinic after that

Vampire! Bella:

So Jacob never actually got rid of the motorcycles

After you see him and Renesmee ride away on one of them one day, you ask to try it out

Under her watchful eye, Bella helps you learn how to ride

One day, after a couple months of successful rides, you decide to take it to run some errands

Bella didn't see an issue with this, seeing as you were skilled, and let you go all by yourself

But she very quickly regrets that when she gets a rather ominous text from you that just says "help" and nothing else

Her mind starts running a mile a minute

She asks for Edward and Alice's help to hunt you down

She expects a lot of things when she finds you

She expects blood, bones, a crash, metal everywhere, and you dead

But what she finds is you standing in a parking lot trying to shove four large bags of items into the tiny space under the seat

She's so relieved she could cry

Of course, you're confused as to why your girlfriend suddenly comes out of nowhere and gives you the most bone-breaking hug she could muster

Why the fuck would you text me like that?!?!?!?"

"Like what?"

"Like this!"

"Oh... my other messages didn't send... sorry!"

No more motorcycle :(

Hello Bluebell! I LOVE your art style! It’s mesmerizing! As an autistic person, I enjoy submas thoroughly, and your content brings a smile to my face! So if you don’t mind, here’s a mindless rant about your fnaf au(I’m not even that big of a fnaf fan, your art is just that good)

None of the other animatronics are really allowed to interact with the twins, and they only us the transport when needed to move through the pizzaplex without being spotted. The twins are used to aid with the transport of of items(which is why they are so tall and bulky. Why hire staff to move work items around the place when you can use scrap to build animatronics for cheap that you don’t have to pay) they are beloved by the behind the scenes workers, and especially the engineers/mechanics. The twins are active 24/7, and can receive minor charge through their feet via the floor. When not moving people or work items, they patrol the warehouse area to ensure no intruders. Despite appearances, they love children and carry various candy/merch to give to them. When controlled by the virus, ingo acts as a lure due to his voice box, and he uses his booming voice to stun victims. Emmett is the one who catches the intruders due to his better movement. The victims are often taken to vanny, and in this state they believe they are helping a lost child find their way home. They are unaware they are dooming them to a worse fate. Both twins are semi fixable using parts you find scattered randomly around the plex and hidden details in the repair area. If both are recruited as allies they will defend you against music man and guide you through the subway tunnels to avoid detection. They get really messed up in the music man altercation, and when elesa and company come across them, the damage is too extensive to repair them both separately, so they are temporarily combined into an amalgam of both twins. They maintain their individual personalities and return to help the player in the burntrap fight. They lead the group out of the burning pizza plex. This is only unlocked if both are saved and allied. If only one is allied the other will become hyper aggressive and will become incredibly dangerous; Afton has complete control over them. If neither are rescued they wander the area under the pizza plex in search of their counterpart. They later return as enemies as you make your way down to the cellar in this version. They will ambush the player if they leave Freddy for too long. Their state is greatly deteriorated and they at this point are mindless murder drones. Anyways that’s all for now! Have a marvelous day!

First of all, thank you so much. I'm so happy you enjoy my fnaf submas AU so much >w<

And sorry for taking so long. I tend to gather asks until one day I actually answer them.

I am reading your idea with great interest, oh my~!

It's very different from what I'm imagining them as, but that's not a bad thing at all!

Using them more as working bots, instead of entertainment, is a great idea! I was wondering how they'd get in contact with visiting kids, but maybe they show up whenever stock needs to be refilled, carrying large crates and such, and you know kids! Big heavy machinery that moves stuff around productively??? Like tractors and trucks and trains??? Crazy cool to a lot of kids!! And then maybe there's an appeal of the odd ones out, the only animatronics that aren't in the stage light. Despite their tall statue, just feeling more down to earth, unlike the always locked away Glamrock colleagues.

(The actual upkeep of labor animatronics would probably be FAR more than any human worker driving forklifts, but nonono slave animatronics it is!)

I love how you think in gameplay! Imagine as the player the only media you see of them are children's drawings, fanart, stuff like that, cus since they're only labor bots they don't get official ads.

Both submas being completely out of it when under the virus works so well too! They want to serve and make people happy. They couldn't possibly comprehend that following orders could mean harming them!

I also love the idea of FazEnt not caring enough about them to invest enough money to fix them both. Why would they? Their software is one animatronic already; why not make them so in hardware too?

Enter: Jürgen!

Or it's like a robotic DID situation, one taking the backseat as the other is in control, being able to switch back and forth as needed. Another game mechanic?

If only one is befriended, I could see the other getting aggressive cus he thinks you're stealing his brother! I like to think they're super protective of each other.

[agirlwithglam]

hey girl! do you have any tips on letting go/detaching? especially with searching the 3D!

.⋆𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟⋆. hiiiii honey! girl i totally get where you're coming from. honestly, learning to detatch from something that lies in front of you, every single day can be discouraging. here are some of my tips <3

detaching from the 3d: stop searching for validation! ˚₊۶ৎ˙⋆

★ its a skill to be trained! train yourself.

listen, just like learning to juggle, you're not going to be fully able to avoid looking at the 3d for validation first try! its just like learning to develop a more positive mindset/ self talk, you will not be a master at doing it as soon as you want to do it. if you want to rewire your brain, it needs to be trained; minute by minute, day by day.

so just remember that if you start to feel frustrated that you're looking at the 3d when you don't want to, be kind to yourself. the first step is realising when you may be searching the 3d, and then to just refocus on what you want to be focussing on. tunnel vision baby!

★ remember: you get to choose meanings

when something "bad" happens, YOU are the one percieving it which means that YOU get to choose how you take it/ what it means. example;

maybe someone didn't text you immediately back, chill. -> you don't need to overthink and spiral into the thoughts that they might not like you. take a step back, take things how it comes. remember that there are so many possibilities to why they read it but didn't reply straight away, not just they don't like you. maybe they really like you but they're trying to play hard to get, maybe they're thinking about what to reply to you cus they're nervous, maybe their mom called them and they had to go urgently, maybe their phone just died, THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER REASONS, so why focus on the one that doesn't help you?!!!!!!!

in short basically take things as they come with no meanings or assumptions attached to it and if you find yourself assuming something that makes you unhappy, direct your focus to something else.

★ learn to generate those feelings in your daily life

maybe you're craving an interaction or compliment from your crush, a job, a good grade, money, literally anything that happens to you, there is also usually an emotion that comes with it.

learn to be able to create that emotion on your own everyday whenever you get the chance. you do this by imagining the situation/ scenario. imagining every detail, how it plays out, and most importantly how you feel. because remember, your thoughts create your emotions, your emotions create your actions and your actions create your identity. and also it's not like you need to set some time out because i know how busy our days can be but its like while doing boring mundane stuff, when you're doing it, be the person who would have what you want. some examples...

if you're checking your phone, pretend you got a messege or confession or something from your crush and start smiling uncontrollably (although keeping in mind that you of course are the prize and they is lucky to even have your number)

before going to bed, imagine any scenario that you would like. whether its your crush complimenting you, or you getting a huge sum of money. just feel the feelings and drift off to sleep in that lovely bliss

when getting ready in the mornings, do the things you'd do if you were getting ready for your dream job and pretend that you actually are going to your dream job.

stay busy and distracted

while doing all this, remember that YOU HAVE A LIFE TO LIVE!!!!! please don't put it on hold trying to figure out how to detatch from the 3d. instead DO STUFF! get hobbies ,do things that you find fun, have picnics, go flower picking, play with your siblings, talk to your parents, make plans with friends, journal, paint, pick up a sport, take long drives, watch the sunset and discover how truly small and meaningless everything is. you only get one life so why don't you ponder on living it to the fullest.

anyways haha i hope this helped in any way, also if you're more interested in the law of assumption and 3d and stuff, i highly recommend you read some of @etherealkissed88 's posts, she's like the queen of this stuff and has written on everything you need to know! xx

MANY RAIN WORLD SPOILERS AHEAD

yknow, what really are these module things you see attached to iterators?

i always assumed they were steam vents and thus make the torrential rains you experience, as when its rain time, they start steaming. but as ive played through more campaigns and revisited old areas, ive noticed some strange things about them

like whats up with this one on the bottom? why is it cut in half like that?

and sometimes the lighting makes these circle things in the background look like theyre protruding, so I assumed they were just the same steam vent things but viewed face-on, yet in this image (and in a lot of others) the lighting suggests the opposite - they're indentations on the structure. perhaps the vent things can be retracted in/out of the base?

yet here in the outer expanse you can find them on train cars, and the lighting looks like they're protruding, which would either mean the train cars are extremely wide or theres an extreme amount of clearance between the rail and the walls of the tunnel.

and even if it was retracted into its shell, that would mean the shell itself is super wide to be able to house an object that long. also the retractable theory in general starts to fall flat when you never actually see them retract or extrude, which if they are steam vents, then shouldnt they pop out of their shells when its rain time? this makes me think the circles facing head-on arent the same vent modules we see. perhaps they're some sort of "socket" or attachment point for some other component? im not sure.

but anyway, back to the main point. what are these things?

well, an important peice of evidence completely changes everything.

YOU CAN FIND THEM (and the circle background thingies) *INSIDE* OF ITERATOR CANS

(they're in/on moon's can as well, so there doesn't seem to be a difference between gen 1 and gen 3 iterator designs in regards to these modules)

but anyway. why are there steam vents inside of their processors???

and you cant just deduce that they arent steam vents, cus they definitely are (as shown in this video)

but at the same time the ones inside their cans dont produce any steam. or at least, no steam that we can see.

but this leads me to a theory, once you keep in mind another major thing about iterators: they need a shit load of water to function, yet you never see any of the neuronflies, inspectors, or other organisms inside drink. so where the heck is all the water? (besides the lymphatic system)

this makes me think that the steam vents we see inside of iterator structures are indeed steam vents, but the amount of steam they produce is a lot less. i assume they are basically giant humidifiers, which would saturate the air with so much moisture that the neuronflies and what not wouldnt need to "drink" as they would just constantly be absorbing water from the air. the moist air could also improve electrical conductivity between neurons.

so yeah that's my theory! it is kind of uncomfortable to think about the inside of iterator cans being absolutely muggy and miserable from the extreme humidity, but it makes sense knowing that being inside an iterator is basically like being inside a giant living organism's body; of course it's gonna be wet and slimy in there. it would also explain how the water pumped through the lymphatic conduits gets distributed to all the neurons and other purposed organisms - instead of having a separate pipe connecting every little creature to the water supply, you just saturate the air with it so they can "wirelessly" get water!

I'm back again with my silly saiyan ideas. this time, I went down a rabbit hole and made a discovery from my fav girl, Bulla.

but let's start with her grandfather. so we know King Vegeta. other than his sons having carbon copies appearance from their dad, he has a recognisable jewellery. a large pendant. (tbh I liked the 90's anime more cus it's more pretty)

while I was looking through Bulla's wiki page, one of her trivia made an assumption that her name could be a reference to a roman amulet called a bulla

interestingly, I decided to check out more info, and it peaks more interest to me. this is what a bulla amulet looks like. and yeah it's true.

since a bulla is meant for ancient roman boys to wear, I found that ancient roman girls also wear a similar pendant with the same purpose of protecting them and it called a Lunula. also, both genders remove their amulets when they reach adulthood.

imo, it's prettier than the bulla amulet. now these two amulets remind me so much of king Vegeta's two necklaces. and here's where the headcanons come in.

the royal saiyan family has the same tradition with the romans of giving their sons a bulla and the daughters a lunula amulet for their protection. (here's where I also add my own twist with this) after coming of age, they can still keep their amulet as a betrothal necklace for their married partners. okay avatar reference I see you.

maybe that explains why King Vegeta has two different necklaces. if his wife has died by that point, he continue wearing her necklace to remember her (aww) and also why Vegeta thought the name Bulla wasn't so bad for his daughter cus it referred to their traditional jewellery.

also Vegeta would try to bring back this amulet tradition for his children. he thinks it's too late for Trunks so he starts off with Bulla. from what he remembered from his late father, Vegeta had to craft his own by hand with gold and jewels. he had many failed attempts of making it, and not having time due to training and other stuff as he's doing this in secret. but finally, he's done creating the amulet. Bulla is already 4 now, but it's doesn't matter.

Ooo! Very interesting fine!

I really do like the idea of King Vegeta wearing his deceased wife’s jewelry/amulet as a tunnel way to show that he still respects her/things of her/is mourning her.

I always did like the idea that the amulets King Vegeta wears are the Saiyan equivalent of wearing a crown. Like the amulet symbolizes the royal status.

However, I’m going to have to to respectfully disagree with you on one thing you’ve stated. I really do not like King Vegeta’s design from the 90’s. The bright colors clash with one another and I don’t like the red tint in his hair. Too much red overall going on.

Now his design in the Broly Movie?? Now THATS an improvement! His hair, beard and outfit look better, I like the colors in his outfit, his armor is an improvement, his amulet looks nicer (fit for a king). Just overall it’s a much better look in my opinion. Also he looks HOT!

Part 13 of Punk Hazard Dub watch party

617

Zoro racing over leaving dust how fast he’s running and STILL going the wrong way 🤣🤣

I just want Doflamingo to carry me like Zoro carries Tashigi. Yes, like a sack of flour on his shoulder. Yes, I don’t mind.

“Just put me down! This is embarrassing!”

“There’s no time for that now! You’re staying right where you are!” You listen to Dub Zoro, Tashigi. Let him carry you, Tashigi. I’d listen to Dub Zoro. Why run when you have a big strong fast man carrying you? Stop trying to look the gift horse in the mouth, Tashigi!

Dub Zoro won my heart, I was not expecting that. I knew Dub Doffy, I was ready for that, in fact I expected it. But Dub Zoro? Of all dubs, Dub Zoro? Did not expect that, at all!

Okay so, I have a question… did Law get nerfed a bit for Dressrosa Arc or did that just appear like that to me cus Doffy just is overall faster and could avoid the slashes with ease which then makes it seem like Law is nerfed?

Vergo still going after Law, man, what a sore loser.

All props to G-5 soldiers for Mocha & the kids, they really really helped

“That was cruel.” Rich of Vergo to talk about cruel.

“You don’t mess around when you want revenge.” No, Law does not mess around.

Law cutting his head in half and stopping Vergo’s monologue, good job, Law.

How dare Caesar call that the true power of science? As a scientist… not approved

Caesar sure is stupid. Basic science here, buddy. Luffy needs more space for the fist he’s gonna use.

“Now, Third Gear!” Here he goes!

“I’m gonna finish you now, so I never see you again!”

Hey, the OST that played when Luffy blocked Rebecca’s sword and returned is playing here too!

And Luffy beat him! Yaay 🥳🥳🎉🎉

Doffy in the preview! 🎉🎉🎉 Gosh he’s so handsome 😍

618

Zoro worrying about Chopper, big brother Zoro awww

Hahahah Law & Smoker dragging the cart AHAHAHAHAHA LOOK AT THEM HAHAAHAH

Law thinking of the kids and the injured he is a true doctor awww 😭😭😭 Rosi would probably break out crying. Like me 😭😭😭😭

“Traffy!” Sooo cuteee

Luffy telling Law he punched Caesar through the tunnel

“No! The plan was to kidnap him!”

“Why? He sucks!”

HAHAHAHA I LOVE THEM

Doffy burning the entire town to ash. He’s just doing for Baby 5 what Trebol, Pica & Diamante did for him when he was a kid and when he fell on an uneven road in a town. Gosh 🤣🤣

Eight men, eight towns. Omg, I feel so bad for Baby 5, she probably hasn’t had sex yet bcs of Doffy’s overprotective dad tendencies 😭

“Why won’t he let me be happy?!” 🤣 But also 😭

“That’s just how he shows his love. He’s just protective.” YEAH! That’s just… Doffy’s style… of showing love 🥺

“Him blowing up a town or two is just a sign of how much he cares.” I’m using this line in Merlot & Primroses 🤣🤣

Ewww, good on Doffy for killing the guy that’s a predator not a boyfriend. He looks old enough to be Baby 5’s grandfather!

I love how Buffalo is trying to help “Just because someone asks, you don’t gotta say yes.” Bless Buffalo.

SHE HAS 50 NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIPTIONS? BABY 5, NOOO 😭😭

98 million in debt 😭😭 hang on, if berries equal yen and they do…

657 thousand dollars! Omg 😱😱😱😱

Aaaand then Buffalo takes advantage of it. No, Buffalo, no gambling! Gosh 🤣🤣🤣

OOOH, BACK TO DRESSROSA

DOFFY DOFFY DOFFY DOFFY

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳🩷🩷🩷💕💕🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

He has no right looking this good! 😭😭

“What’s up?” Dub Doffy 😍😍

“Is that so?”

(gulps) Yeah, Dub Doffy scares me as much as Sub Doffy.

“I don’t care what state he’s in, grab Caesar immediately. Get out of there and bring him to Dressrosa.”

Omg, Dub Doffy nails the laugh, hoooly shit, yees. 1000/10.

Oh, I noticed a little detail! Doffy’s got his pink jolly roger on his cufflinks instead of the pirates skull crossbones one!

See!

SO CUTEE! 🥰🥰🥰

Myb the skull crossbones one is on other side of the cufflink?

“Buncha damn rookies. Blow up the lab, what the hell do I care? It’ll take more than that to beat me. All that matters is Caesar. As long as I have him, I can make all the SAD I need.” oh man Dub Doffy sounds so arrogant and smug and sexy, such a crime boss I love him

he’s sooo 🫠😳🩷🥵💋👌🏻

And Dub Doffy still laughing, love it

Dub Doffy is so sexy I cannot with him, this is UNFAIR

Carl vs Meeple

Ok I didn’t want to make a post like this cus I hate being negative but I always had this pet peeve of not liking when these two were compared together

Tho idk if Lawrie and Larry fans can (rightfully I may add) get frustrated by how ppl handled their characters I think I’m allowed to get frustrated by how this community portrayed Meeple dammit. Tho yeah I think the Carl and Meeple comparison are super skin deep. Ppl saw two “nerd” characters and just assumed that they were similar when in reality if you took the time to look into them they aren’t.

Carl is a nerd in the traditional sense. He is very book smart in nature and tends to be drive by curiosity. He will go out and look into things he doesn’t understand, like the purple crystals hence their mention in his bio. Carl is a guy who seems to stride for innovation and like most characters in this game a relatively nice, upstanding fellow. Chatty and excitable about his new discoveries. He wants to know everything he can about the gems and is always open to sharing his research. Fascinated by the mysterious and unexplained. Probably started his research around after watching what happened to Mike after his interaction with them. Even if their curiosity and stride to know more could be potentially dangerous it doesn’t stop him from pushing to learn more. Which to me makes him also seem either very determined or very stubborn. Maybe a mix of both.

Despite also being a nerd character Meeple couldn’t be any more different from this. Meeple is what you’d consider an internet nerd of sorts. They’re more knowledgeable on one specific topic, ie games especially boardgames, and yet lack more social awareness of situations. Meeple has tunnel vision and despite wanting friends fails to understand their own hypocrisy and how their cheating pushes ppl away from them. They immature too you get that very fast if you listen to their voice lines. Basically throwing tantrums when things don’t go their way. There is an air of egotism around Meeple’s character. Besides maybe Chester I can’t really see most other characters in this game staying around Meeple for long due to their more nastier attitude. It’s probably why they ended referencing Reddit in one of their voice lines. Meeple the embodiment of the stereotypical Reddit nerd. While not inherently evil Reddit users are typically associated with arrogance, pessimism and a constant need to complain about others while being the type of man child who hasn’t left their mother’s basement for too long.

These two personalities are just so drastically different from each other and I actually appreciate this cus it proves you can make different characters with own ideas and identities even if they are cut from the same general cloth. Not all nerd characters will be the same after all.

Post edit cus someone who actually knows how to English well pointed this out to me and it actually makes the Meeple vs Carl shit even funnier.

So um technically Meeple wouldn’t by definition even be a nerd. They be a geek. A nerd is smart in multiple fields and particularly book smart while a geek is like very knowledgeable in one area. Meeple is like super knowledgeable in games so they be a geek. Another difference between these two.

A Question of Seman-dicks

A/N: I wrote this under the influence of alcohol, edibles, and the funniest conversation in the history of Discord. Happy Friday!

Pairing: Hardcase x GN!Reader (platonic with a twist)

Rating: T

Wordcount: 960

Warnings and tags: suggestive language, terrible puns

Hardcase spotted you striding purposefully down the corridor of the Resolute, and he sped up to try to catch up with you. You turned a corner abruptly, and by the time he rounded it, you were nowhere to be found. The corridor was empty; there was nothing there but a bank of escape pods. He peered into the porthole of each one until he finally spotted you, pacing back and forth in the small space and talking animatedly. Intrigued, he opened the hatch.

You whirled to face him, guilt written plainly across your features, but when you recognized his distinctive tattoos, you relaxed.

“Oh, it’s you,” you sighed with relief. “Thank the Force.”

“What are you doing in here?” he asked curiously.

“Nothing!” you said. His expression was dubious, and you knew he wouldn’t let it drop until you told the truth. “Hiding.”

He gave you a sympathetic look. “Admiral Ice Queen?”

“I came in here to scream,” you admitted sheepishly.

“Good choice,” he said. “Conveniently close to your office, private, and most importantly, soundproof. I approve of your strategy.”

“Except I’m not supposed to be in here, and if anyone caught me, I’d be in huge trouble.”

“Someone did catch you,” he pointed out.

“Yeah, but you wouldn’t rat me out,” you replied. “You’re more likely to come in and hide with me.”

“Great idea!” he said with a grin. He stepped into the pod and sealed the hatch, then flopped down on the floor and patted the spot next to him. “Tell me all about it.”

“You know there are perfectly good seats in here,” you said.

“True, but if I sat in one of those, there wouldn’t be room for you next to me, and you look like you could use a hug.”

“Good point,” you said, sitting down with a thump.

He immediately draped his arm over your shoulders, and you leaned against him. “So what did the bad-miral do this time?”

“More of the usual,” you replied. “I swear she sets me up to fail on purpose, and then she takes an evil delight in being a massive Taungsday about it.”

“Taungsday?” he asked, baffled.

“You know, a C-U-Next-Taungsday?”

“I don’t get it,” he said.

Even though nobody was around, you leaned in and whispered the explanation in his ear. He reared back in surprise.

“I don’t think you’re supposed to say that word,” he said.

“What word would you prefer?” you asked, amused at his reaction, but still too upset to laugh.

“Lady garden,” he replied.

You snorted. “Seriously?”

“It’s more respectful,” he said with dignity.

“I don’t want to be respectful!” you complain. “I want to call her a cu—”

“Love tunnel!” he exclaimed, interrupting you before you could get the word out.

That time, you actually laughed. “What is this, a bodice ripper? I don’t need a romantic euphemism for a—”

“Hidden treasure!” he cut you off. “Or cupcake! Those are delicious.”

You let out an inelegant cackle, and he gave you a wounded look that only made you laugh harder. 

“Hardcase, I had no idea you had so many words for a woman’s—”

“Honey pot?” he asked insouciantly. 

“You can just say—”

“Nether regions?” he offered. “I don’t like that one. It sounds spooky. Like some vast, uncharted part of space.”

You tried to stifle your laughter, but it came out as an embarrassing snort, which only made you laugh harder.

“Still, it’s better than ‘penis fly trap,’” he mused. “But not as good as flower. You know, because it has petals and is also used in reproduction. I would definitely rather put my tallywacker in a flower than in a nether region. Higher probability of survival.”

By this point, you had both hands clapped over your mouth to try to muffle your shrieks of laughter as tears streamed down your face. You couldn’t even remember why you’d hidden in the escape pod in the first place, much less why Hardcase was regaling you with a comprehensive listing of every colloquialism known to the galaxy for a—

“Notorious V.A.G.,” he said. “Whoever came up with that one had obviously never felt the touch of a woman.”

You doubled over and buried your face against his chest as you howled with laughter, so you missed his pleased smile when he realized he’d successfully distracted you from your horrible boss. Unfortunately, you’d been gone long enough that you knew your absence would soon be noted.

“I wish I could hide in here with you for the rest of the day,” you gasped once you caught your breath.

“Me, too,” he said, giving your shoulders a squeeze. “Probably ought to get back to it, though.”

You nodded and wiped away your mirthful tears, hoping that you looked at least somewhat presentable. Hardcase stood and offered you his hand, pulling you to your feet with ease, and then he opened the hatch of the escape pod. The two of you spilled out into the corridor, only to run smack-dab into Jesse and Kix.

Jesse took one look at your disheveled appearance and punched Hardcase in the shoulder with a devilish grin. 

“Nice, vod,” he said. “You finally made your move.”

Hardcase looked mortified. “That’s not— We weren’t—”

“Relax, brother, we won’t tell the Atrocious Admiral,” Kix laughed. “I’m just glad you decided to do something other than pine away after all this time.”

Hardcase stared at you with panic in his eyes as he watched understanding dawn on your face. 

“I—” he began.

On impulse, you leaned in and gave him a kiss on the cheek. 

“Thanks for everything, big boy,” you said. “Be sure to stop by my bunk later, and I’ll show you how well I can swallow your baloney pony.”

MOUTHWASHING SPOILERS

meatball don’t read this until i indoctrinated you into watching the game ..

The implication that Jimmy raped Anya and she was literally so quiet about it KILLS ME

“I’m pregnant” and also hiding the gun case OHHH MY GODFGDHFJFG

I’m like 80-90% sure swansea knew and that cryo pod was for her. like. come on now. swansea’s character is so fucking awesome i hate that i like him!!!!!!!! mean old man who secretly saw his friends as if they were his own trope NAAAUURRR ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

Like, Swan does NAWT fuck with Jimmy. the pod could’ve been for daisuke, but somehow i knew it was for anya i swear to god. like why would he keep it from fucking everyone. Anya never asked about the utility room. at least i dont think so.

^ its also possible he’d keep it for himself, but he spoke about his life in that tied up bit as if it were already over. I really doubt it was just for him.

not like we’d see it anyway because we play from jimmy’s perspective, at least most of the time.

Curly knew because he was the captain and he was trustworthy, Swansea knew because daisuke was probably too young for her to confide in and she wanted some sort of protection - like in the last bit where you have to find the gun case and stuff / break into the medical room, swansea is no fuckign help (ik he was drunk but still)

also the way he attacks jimmy with the axe in the medical room. SWAN KNEW OK

he knew

i swear

anyway.

There was a mutual trust between Curly, swan and anya. Daisuke was left out cus of age, and jimmy because he’s literally insane. and also raped anya.

Jimmy is an exceptionally well written villain, and i love the psychological horror aspect that comes with being forced to do the things he did. Feeding curly his own leg?? WHAT!!!

I figure Jimmy is so jealous of Curly because he’s been “trying to climb the ladder” for years, but his behaviours and inability to cooperate stopped him from becoming a captain, and thats all he wanted. He got it, i guess. I think the horse / pony express part of his (what i can only describe as) mental breakdown / psychosis is just the fact that he’s been so focused on that company that he saw the horse fucking EVERYWHERE !!!

he convinced himself he’s been busting his ass for pony express for years and nobody even sees him. the highest rung for him is to be captain and he just couldn’t reach it. ladies and gents. Jimmy has been tunnel visioned in on captain-ness he lost his sense of life.

“I’m gonna fix this. we’re gonna get out of here.”

i think he says that because he’s more or less trying to convince himself that he can still fix everything, rather than just mindless rambling to everyone who’s died.

His breaking point back into whatever can be perceived as consciousness is curly in the end. they ran out of pain meds so he tried to help him by feeding him something, and then puts him in the pod.

Putting Curly in the pod is his remorse. Killing himself is his guilt.

THIS IS NOT A JIMMY APOLOGIST SECTION . goodness. that guy is so fucking evil it was genuinely crazy, i just like writing about how i saw things.

Out of all the characters, They’re all my favourite except for Jimmy. Fuck that guy. love you curly. ❤️

There will be mouthwashing fanart soon on GYAT ITS COMING

I love it so much

Sleepless nights and tunnels | @pandalilymicrofics | swearing, pure fluff | 529 words

Pandora was running.

She was just minding her own business, sneaking off to the forbidden forest for a midnight swim in a small pond she had found. But it didn't go as planned. She was almost there, she could see the passageway that would lead her out of the castle, when she heard a voice.

"Pandora?"

When she looked back she saw the most gorgeous girl ever. Wavy copper hair tied up in a messy bun with curtain bangs out, beautiful green eyes under eyebrows furrowed in confusion. It was Lily Evans. And except for being the prettiest woman to ever exist, she was the head girl, and Pandora was definitely not looking for a detention.

So she ran.

"Wait!" She heard Lily call out. But she didn't look, instead ran straight into the passage. She heard Lily's footsteps behind her. Why was she following, surely she had something better to do than chase after some weird Slytherin.

That's what Lily thought too. She should really get back, her rounds aren't nearly finished yet. But she felt weirdly attracted to the blonde in front of her, she just had to follow.

She followed the girl until she stopped, panting. "All right fine, you can take me to slughorn now, I'm too tired to run." She said, still out of breath.

"What?" Lily said in confusion, trying to control her breathing.

"You followed me all the way here, you must really want to get me in trouble."

Right. She was so focused on how the beads in the girl's braids jingled as she ran, how her dress flowed as though she was swimming, how beautiful she looked, even if she was sweating and running like her life depended on it. She had completely forgotten why she followed.

"Oh um no it's-it's alright." She said. she wasn't going to confess how she is absolutely enamored by the girl and stays up all night thinking about her.

"What?" It was Pandora's time to be confused now. "Then why the fuck did you follow me here?" She asked, surprised and absolutely bewildered.

Fuck. What was Lily supposed to say now. She could either confess and look like a perv who follows girls into tunnels, or run back out and look like a perv who follows girls into tunnels. If she was going to look like a perv, might as well confess.

"I um-I like you." She started. "Like-like like you"

"Oh" Pandora said. Holy fuck. Lily fucking Evans likes her? "Is this a bit? Cus that's really not funny."

"No, not-not at all," she said, "I really do like you."

"Oh." Pandora was fully freaking the fuck out. What was she supposed to say? The most beautiful and straightest girl on the face of earth just said she likes her.

"I-I like you too."

"Oh." Lily said, stunned. She was fully expecting to get slapped and told to get the fuck away from her. But she really wasn't complainin.

"Well-um will you go to hogsmeade with me?" She asked.

"I would love to." The blonde replied.

"Great!" Lily replied with a blinding grin.

"Well-I was headed to the forbidden forest, do you wanna join?" She asked.

"Oh, sure." Lily replied.

[helyiios]

I've been thinking for ages that in Rogue Nation Benji must have been tortured during his captivity, which seems to be a popular thought in the fandom. But please also imagine, what if they had given him some poison with a delayed effect? So that even after he's freed from the bomb, it's not over for him...

"This was one hell of a mission," Ethan breathes out as they make their way out of the tunnel, feeling much better now that Lane was becoming a distant memory. "Can't say I enjoyed it."

"Well, now we know what to expect," Luther grimaces, playing with the corner of his hat, looking around a little expectantly. You can never be too sure of who might be hiding still. "This guy is a psychopath. Talking about that—how do you feel, Benji ?"

He turns around to face his friend, eyes widening as soon as they fall on the man's figure.

"Benji ?"

"Benji," Brandt says, voice low and full of worry, "hey. Talk to us."

"I'm fine," the other replies, but his voice his strained and he's clutching his chest so tightly his shirt might tear. "I just—I need a sec."

"What's happening ?" Ethan suddenly frowns, making his way towards his friend and stopping a few centimeters from him, hands still in the air, almost going to grab his shoulders. "Benji ? Benji, look at me."

When the bright golden blue irises meet his, he's shocked to find nothing but pitch darkness. Pupils blown wide.

"Oh, fuck."

"I'm okay, you guys," Benji chokes out, and he's breathing hard and with obvious difficulty and his legs are trembling and he's white. "Nothing I won't survive, really it—“

He doubles over and tries his best to keep the scream of pain as quiet as possible, biting his lower lip so hard he draws blood. His stomach hurts so bad and his head makes the entire place spin.

"Fuck—" he struggles, letting one knee down, "God, shit—"

"What happened ?! Is this—"

"Lane," Benji smiles weakly, "the torture was fine, he j—"

"Lane tortured you," Ethan growls as he lowers himself as well, grabbing his arm with great tenderness, gaze dangerous. "Did he..."

"It wasn't too bad," his friend offers, but his face is staring to turn a worrying shade of green, "just some—some cu—u—aah. Fuck. Fuck," he spits out frothy saliva, "oh, shit."

"We need to get him to a hospital," Brandt retorts, "he got poisoned."

"I think I'm going to pass out," Benji jokingly manages to say, "it hurts a lo—ooh, fucking shit, fuck—"

Before he can understand what was happening he's scooped up in Ethan's arms, feeling hands on his neck and under his knees. He'd rejoice more was he not on the verge of puking his entire brains out.

His body is on fire, he can feels the blood vessels fill up and pumping in his muscles, his vision is blurry and he feels so sick.

"I didn't—I didn't wanna take the focus away from Lane," he pathetically mutters, lips a breath away from Ethan's neck. "'m sorry."

"Hey, none of that," Ethan gently replies, "you're good. I wish you'd told me, Benj. But it's okay, we're taking you to a hospital. Alright ?"

"Alright, E," Benji simply nods, closing his eyes in the hopes of finding solace in pitch darkness. "I trust you."

Could Mechanist defeat Reserve Team A6?

One of the few entities in Terra capable of doing so.

As discussed previously, Reserve Team A6 works on slapstick rules: They could defeat Patriot simply because it would be funny if they did, and they can only be decisively defeated if it would be humorous or ironic in a humorous way. Mechanist has a rare property, however, that renders him fully immune to any Doctor Slump or Ed Edd and Eddy-class shenanigan. He simply Refuses To Participate.

Essentially, Mechanist is immune to The Bit. It's like his Fate passive ability: The same way Cu has protection from projectiles, Mechanist has protection from The Bit, but to an even more absolute level. He simply is water midst The Bit's oil, passing through untouched and completely distinct from it. If an anvil were to fall on Mechanist as he was crossing the street, courtesy of Catapult, he could dodge it, regardless of whether it's funny for him to do so or not. If Popukar paints a tunnel on a brick wall and then attempts to escape into it, it would work if it were Patriot, who would then splat himself flat against it in pursuit, but she simply could not go into the tunnel if her pursuer were Mechanist, because it's not a tunnel, it's a painting of a tunnel. If Midnight were to leave a huge black circular bomb at Patriot's feet, his eyes would bulge out dramatically before it explodes in a pastel big bang of orange, red and yellow, and he'd be a pile of ash with eyes for the reminder of the scene until he sweeps himself into a tray with a broom and regains his Wendigo form, but Mechanist would simply put the fuse out.

It just wouldn't work, bud. Just like Ho'olheyak is the hard counter to Muelsyse due to her being able to manipulate the air around water molecules, Mechanist is the A6 hard counter due to simply existing outside of The Bit.

Okay, but Lukas and Radar had actually a good, almost brother/brother relationship like in-game. What happens in champion AU? Lukas doesn't really participate in underground sheningas, but he still probably will get the story later.

Heheheheheh.

Heheh. Heh.

Kinda! I can’t spoil too much, but since Radar is in Beacontown with Romeo, he’s kinda nudging Romeo to be a bit less harsh, especially with who he sends to the dungeon. He’s also got some plans of his own…

I’m actually a bit split on what part I want Lukas to have cus I ship Jesskas. The two things I’ve thought of are 1) Radar fills Lukas in on what happened and tells him to just wait in Romeo’s dungeon, or 2) Radar still fills him in, BUT releases him into the tunnels to Beacontown so Lukas can meet up with Jesse.

Either way, he gains Lukas’ trust here! This is ✨important✨ because Radar actually helps Jesse’s group out a lot during the Romeo fight, and I think Lukas and Jesse would be super impressed and a little proud of him. Definitely a brother/brother relationship there.

This changes :)

No i will not elaborate ♥️

Undertale AU-Ancient Crypt

Prologue Pt.4

Undertale Yellow reference!!!! Oh my god Undertale but if it was Yellow!!!

Also quick note: Frisk and Flowey are doing the Genocide in a weird order because they are bored, and because they don't want to get caught easily so they will kill monsters of an area and then leave before the 'boss' of that area notices.

Frisk will enter 'Battle Mode' having Flowey carry their soul through his tunnels. Frisk's body going with. Cus the way I see battles is

The defending party can dematerialize to Just their soul in order to dodge tight corners. Monsters cannot do this as freely as Humans sense their souls are so much weaker than humans. Damage straight to the soul will be transfered to the outer body when going back to normal.

Part 3

Part 5:

⚠️

Part five has multiple trigger warnings: Body Horror, Body Damage, Death, black and white Life Juice

And the preview of the post shows the comic without spoiling it so only click Keep Reading if your comfy with that!!!
