#can he technically do that? I mean kinda

[multishipper-baby]

I don't think Eze has any special powers aside from being able to see and speak to shadows, but I do think he occasionally pretends he does when dealing with shadows that are particularly annoying or rowdy.

Sorry I forgot Hanneman suggested Byleth undress after they show up with a different hair color. And I miss Hanneman. And also while swapping between Houses and Hopes and seeing Hanneman pop up to help in a Hopes paralogue is just devastating since he doesn't ever actually join you at all and I am denied my old man rights.

So I had to draw this. Thank you for understanding.

it's sound weird, but i have headcanon that Hunter didn't go hexside, because he too old to shool(according to my feelings, at the end of the he is 16-17 y.o (except for the post-credits scene), and at that age it is already too late to go to school):p

i mean, well- in my opinion he rather certainly did go to hexside, since one of the things he'd said during his TTT monologue was "i'd like to attend hexside like a normal student and play flyer derby with my friends" and all of his "wishes" were supposed to sort of foreshadow his goals and his future (carving palismen, studying wild magic, etc etc) so i feel like it's safe to say he succeeded in becoming a hexside student as well. we also know he attended grom with the rest of his friend group, and like- since he's 16 before the timeskip (no canon certainty whether he's recently turned 16 or is going on 17 already though, but like... around 16 canonically) that means he'd get at least 1 year of school, but most likely 2+.

my personal headcanon is that he went to hexside for around 2 years (full or not quite, depending on when the school year starts in the boiling isles and how long it lasts; possibly even 3), and during that time he picked up a mentorship/apprenticeship at del's palisman carving shop, and after he graduated from hexside he started carving palismen professionally with the clawthornes (i like to think that he also takes some courses at eda's wild magic university in his spare time, simply cuz . funny uni hexsquad shenanigans)

Thinking about how even if things like turn around amazingly. Best case my mom only has 2-5 years left. And like. Getting big mad thinking about how little most of her siblings has visited. Like. Especially her sister. Which she’s the aunt who broke into my home who I’ve mentioned before so this shitty behavior isn’t. Like. Super surprising. But. Shit sucks man. I hope I’m never like that to my siblings or friends.

ok gonna be real I’ve never understood the “daigo is like a son to me” route that the writers took with kiryu. they’ve never, at least for most of their time knowing each other, felt like they’ve had a father and son dynamic– an older brother/younger brother one sure, or maybe a young uncle/nephew one. because I mean? they’ve known each other since they were both kids and they’re literally only 8 years apart in age. in y0 it’s implied that kiryu played with him and babysat him more or less when he was around 16-20 and it just doesn’t feel like a Dad sort of thing At All. kiryu was also a kid. just an older kid. daigo was a little brat to him just like an annoying little brother while secretly thinking of kiryu as a Cool Teenager he looked up to and wanted to be more like. it feels way more like an older/younger sibling sort of thing or something akin to that and it only starts being a little more like a father/son dynamic some time after daigo loses his father and feels the need to fill the void– which he couldn’t even begin to do until at least ten years later because kiryu was in prison. and it’s not particularly in a healthy way either, considering. well. like I said. kiryu’s never actually been like a father to him. I don’t even mean that in a negative way in this case, it’s just literally not the role kiryu fundamentally had in his life (especially because their age difference is a good 10-20 years too close to be that of a parental relationship.) so idk. having kiryu say all of a sudden that he sees daigo as a son (especially rather than as family in some other way) just feels kinda. wrong. and jarringly unfounded.

I mean shit, even majima would be more of a dad-ish figure to daigo realistically considering kiryu basically assigned him to look after daigo for like. years. while kiryu just kinda left without any known plans of reconnecting at all. or even kashiwagi on a certain level because of how he stepped in alongside yayoi after sohei’s death. kiryu has barely been around, hasn’t really showed any interest in legitimately being in his life, and has barely had any deeply personal interactions with him since they were basically both kids. and as much as I think how long they’ve known each other and what they’ve both been through is a means for a familial bond of SOME kind, there just seems like no room or evidence for a paternal role being taken on.

at least nothing healthy in that regard; if kiryu’s like a dad to him then he’s undoubtedly a deadbeat one and perhaps feels like a dad to daigo in a way because daigo’s paternal model (his birth father) was also emotionally (and probably largely physically) absent and near-impossible to live up to. that’d at least make sense, regardless of how unhealthy it’d be, but it STILL really doesn’t explain kiryu saying he thinks of daigo like a son.

it’s just. it’s such a weird thing to have him say and I wish it was this confusing because of nuance but honestly I just think the writers watered their dynamic down to supposedly father/son because it seems more emotionally impactful for kiryu to say “you’re like a son to me” than anything else he could’ve potentially said about their bond.

if you could change the outcome of any 3 motogp races (the outcome of the championship doesn’t change regardless tho) which ones would you chose?

one of those asks that immediately made me forget every single race I've watched in my life. it's a tough one, especially with the championship thing... I'm gonna add another criterion here and say nothing to do related to injury/death

so... I came up with one quite quickly, then got stuck, then came up with a second and got even more stuck. I'm quite reluctant to change any 'plot-relevant races' in the context of specific careers and rivalries, plus I'm ideologically opposed to stealing any win off a non-alien and giving it to an alien. which then kinda left me?? well. stuck. I don't like these picks but well maybe I'll come up with something better at some point

assen 2018: I simply could not come up with a third race so I'll just throw this one in. dovi + valentino really really should have gotten onto the podium in this race, those were extremely podium-worthy performances, it was such a deeply silly incident between the pair of them that took them out of podium contention. also it's still seen as a classic race and... I don't even begrudge the two beneficiaries for their podium, it's just one where the three best riders that day didn't end up on the podium and I would change that!! I don't even really care that much but also look I had a spot to fill. would've enjoyed the rancid podium vibes, it's what a race of that quality deserved

sepang 2018: just deeply annoying? like, I think it was a super impressive performance, the consistent lap times trick from a 78 year old was very neat, it was cute when jorge did unprompted valentino prop for metronome solidarity reasons, it's one of literally two premier class races where valentino crashed out of the lead so I don't even hold it against him. but... well, that one might have been building to a battle between marc and valentino, and it would've been fun to see that! not least because of location + relationship vibes in 2018. I'd change the result in preventing the crash, don't really care who wins after that point - hey, they can crash each other out if they want. I Just Wanted To See It

styria 2020: bit of a niche one but I remember being pissed off by this so I'm going with it - this should have been mir's win without the bloody red flag. now I'm very sorry that maverick was just having an abysmal time in austria, peace and love to him, I'd probably never step foot in the country again after the eight days he had in that country.... but still, his bike attempting to murder him did ruin what really should've been joan's first win. I'm very defensive of mir's win stats and I was supporting the title bid with zero wins agenda once that looked plausible, but now that he's just gotten stuck on one win for quite a few years... well, again, I do think it's kinda iconic but I'd also let him have two. and back then he wasn't even really looking like a title contender and was still going for his FIRST win.... I was feeling very sorry for him so. there

FFXIVWrite Day Two: Bark

With @winduphaurchefant 's Viggo Umbra

"And that was the only thing that happened?" Lunya asked. Babycorn walked around the room, juggling keeping Cherrypit entertained with a fish on string and talking to Lunya by linkshell, "Yeah! I promise! I talked with Viggo and everything and Cherrypit is totally-!" Babycorn was cut off by the sound of Cherrypit jumping onto the ceiling, the fish was in his mouth. "...as normal as he can be!"

One morning Cherrypit woke up with a pair of dog ears on his head and Babycorn had no idea what to do.

It had all happened so fast. 

Babycorn had just finished up putting the finishing touches on a sweater she had been up all night making as a present for Tilika. When she noticed the sun coming up she quickly made her way over Cherrypit’s designated play corner to close the curtains. 

“Sorry sun but I can’t have you burning my skin again!!” With an angry scowl on her face Babycorn closed the curtains. Just thinking about the week where her entire body burned after a fun day at the pool made her angry all over again. She was so caught up in the past that she failed to notice the blanket-covered lump right behind her. 

Then as she turned to go back to her sweater making, Babycorn tripped over the mysterious blanket lump and landed right on her face in the middle of a pile of Cherrypit’s toys. 

“Owwy…” Babycorn was well used to tripping and falling on her face by now but it didn’t mean that each fall hurt less.

Babycorn lifted her head up and looked up, noticing a small pink blanket flying over her. At that moment she remembered that Cherrypit had been playing ‘cocoon’ the night before and if history was any indication, he always fell fast asleep while playing this specific game. 

“Oh no…!” Babycorn panicked. What if she had woken Cherrypit up by accident?! Or even worse-?! Had taken off his cocoon before he had wanted to take it off?! She was truly the worst big sister ever!!!!

With leg strength that would be more useful in the middle of a battle rather than grabbing a flying blanket for her baby brother, Babycorn jumped up and snatched the blanket in mid-air. Babycorn flapped the blanket around to make sure it was still intact and sighed in relief. “Cherryyyy! I’m sorry I didn’t mean to-!” She turned around to give Cherrypit back his blanket and was met with a sight that left her speechless. 

Cherrypit was sitting down, sucking on his thumb and looking right at her, with a pair of dog ears on his head. 

“Haha! Bebe!! Yaaaay!!” He cheered and clapped for her. The ears on his head were wiggling alongside him. As if to prove to his sister that she wasn’t seeing things, Cherrypit reached up and wiggled them around himself. “Bebe! Look! Look! Bak! Bak!” he giggled loudly to himself and stood up to do a little dance. 

Babycorn fell to her knees and mentally began to beg her parents for forgiveness once again.

Usually when it came to these sorts of things Babycorn would run over in a panic to the nearest person she knew that was smarter and wiser than her. And usually that person would be Lunya but Babycorn knew for a fact that Lunya wouldn’t be back for a few more days. 

(Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, Lunya couldn’t shake this feeling that something was wrong. Though she couldn’t discern it from the ‘Babycorn is eating bark off a tree again’ wrong or the ‘Babycorn thinks that a papercut she got is going to kill her’ wrong. Either way she would call about it in the morning.)

This left Babycorn with the smartest solution she could come up with. Which to be fair to her-was pretty smart. 

With Cherrypit riding on her head Babycorn made her way down the hall all the way to standing in front of the door to Viggo’s room. The scariest room in the entire mansion according to Coco. He had inadvertently filled Babycorn’s head with horror stories of what lied in this room. Horribly scary stories that Babycorn couldn’t bring herself to remember and not just because she forgot most of them and only remembered the feeling of sheer terror. 

But none of that mattered right now! She needed to be brave now! For Cherrypit’s sake!!

Babycorn began to pound on the door as hard as she could. “Viggo! Viggo! Mr.Umbra! Are you there!? I really need your help!! Please HEEELP!!! UWAUBBWUAWUANWAUNW!!!!” She loudly wailed. It should be noted that the current time was six in the morning. 

As the door opened Babycorn continued to panic and flail her arms around in the air. 

Viggo stood there watching her do this for a good few seconds before speaking up. “Good morning Babycorn, do you need anything?” Or was this the usual and regular morning wake up call by Babycorn that only wanted to say hi and then skip away. 

Babycorn froze and looked up, Cherrypit looked up alongside her. “Viggo!! I need your help!! It’s horrible!!!!!!” She was dancing around in a panic and screaming as loud as she could. 

“W-What?!” Viggo stepped outside of his room and held onto the door frame in shock, “Did something happen?!”

“I-I-It’s Cherry!!! Look!!! Something happened to him!!!” 

Babycorn moved her head into a position where Viggo could see Cherrypit. The dog ears that Babycorn had seen that morning were still on his head and unbeknownst to her, he had also grown a pair of little fangs in his mouth. 

Cherrypit gave Viggo a little wave, which Viggo returned with a little wave of his own. 

Now that she was inside Viggo’s room Babycorn could clearly see that…

…Coco was 100 PERCENT RIGHT. This room was terrifying!! There were lots of glass bottles in things that she had no idea what they were and there were various papers all around her with big words she didn’t understand!!

“Brrrrr….” she trembled to herself. 

Viggo had placed Cherrypit on his couch and had begun a regular check-up on him. Which was usually a very short process when it came to Cherrypit, considering the lack of a heartbeat and the way most of his body was static and unchanging. 

…Most of the time at least.

“So, when did you first notice the ears?” Viggo handed Cherrypit a piece of candy to keep him distracted long enough for Viggo to examine his new ears closely. “Wow…Four pairs of ears…” Viggo said to himself, wondering if this somehow gave Cherrypit a heightened sense of hearing.

Babycorn ran over to where Viggo was and recounted the events of that morning.

“-And well it’s not like ears like that are a weird thing-! I know lots of people that look like that! Like B’ig and Cola and G’raha and B’rent and Linnet and Khloe and Zhloe and Centella and K’achow and-”

“Babycorn?”

“-Cait Sith and Vertical’s Brother Who’s Name I don’t Know and-”

“Babycorn.”

“-Himbo Hooters and Y’sthola and F'lhaminn-”

“Babycorn, do you want a candy?” 

Babycorn paused and looked over at Viggo like she was about to attack him. Really she wanted to attack the lollipop. “Omigosh! Would I?!” Babycorn jumped over and happily bit the lollipop and also Viggo’s hand. Something that Babycorn didn’t seem to notice she did but Viggo sure did. 

Babycorn had eaten both the lollipop and the stick. She thanked Viggo with a curtsy.

“N-No problem…A-Anytime Babycorn…” Viggo turned away and rubbed his hand which had a big ouchy on it now but he was being really brave about it. He may have been a doctor and not a dentist but he was fairly sure that lalafell teeth were not supposed to be that sharp. Ignoring the searing pain in his hand, Viggo continued to check over Cherrypit. Who happily continued to wiggle around in place. 

Babycorn popped out from behind the couch. “Is he dying?!” As usual she was jumping to the worst possible conclusions. 

“Well technically from what you already told me he’s already dead.” 

“Oh ya. That’s right!”

Cherrypit giggled, “Bebes funny!!” 

Viggo handed Cherrypit another piece of candy and let out a hum. “Cherrypit? Do you know where you got these ears from?” History had proven time and time again that Cherrypit remembered things much better than Babycorn did, and this time might be no different. 

Without any hesitation Cherrypit pointed straight at Viggo.

“BWA?! M-Me?!?!” 

Babycorn pushed herself up onto the couch and jumped in between Cherrypit and Viggo. “What did you do?” This was the scariest Viggo could ever recall Babycorn looking, even in the middle of battles.

Even so, he was determined to prove his innocence. “I didn’t do anything!!” Not that he could recall. “I promise!”

Evidently that was all the evidence Babycorn needed. Her deadly glare switched back to a cheerful smile. “Ok! If you promise!” she sat down and looked down at Cherrypit, her cheerful smile quickly switched back to her panicked expression. “NOOOOO CHERRYYY!!!” 

At the risk of having Babycorn turn his anger towards him again, Viggo decided to ask Cherrypit to clarify what he meant when he pointed to him. “Did I do something Cherry? Do you remember?” He watched earnestly as Cherrypit processed his question while he bit down on a piece of a steel ingot. 

Cherrypit looked up at him and smiled, one of his doggy ears wiggled. “Abbababayaaaaapoooogagagaweeeesaababanenebebeggyhabababa” he answered. 

“Ah. I see.” Viggo said. He did not see.

On the other hand, Babycorn had surprisingly stopped her panicking and let out a “Oooooohhh!!” Almost as she had understood the long string of baby babble that Cherrypit had just said. Mostly because she had. 

“Viggo! You did this!!” 

“H-Huh…?” That made two people saying he did this now.

Babycorn picked Cherrypit up and held him closer towards Viggo. “Rember’?! During dinner you were talking about how you could turn into a big doggy!! Cherrypit said he really liked that story and wanted to be more like you!!” That was what Cherrypit had told Viggo just now. He was really happy that Babycorn had been able to explain it. 

Viggo wanted to cry. “R-Really…?” He did remember talking about that particular topic yesterday but he was sure that Cherrypit hadn’t been listening at the time. Just how good was this kid’s hearing?? Besides that, it was really cute that Cherrypit wanted to be like him. 

Cherrypit let out a laugh and wiggled around some more. “Awoooooo!!” he laughed to himself.

Viggo and Babycorn let out a simultaneous “Awwww!” 

Though it didn’t worry Babycorn that her brother could grow dog ears in an attempt to imitate a grown-up he thought was cool, Viggo was a little concerned that Cherrypit found a way to do this. But before he could ask if Cherrypit had ever done something like this before…

“Haaaa! Vautreetrree!!”

Viggo looked over to Babycorn. “What did he say this time?” he asked.

“Oh! He said he was gonna go and eat some people later! Just like you! But don’t worry I’ll tell him that’s a bad idea! Haha!” Throughout that entire sentence Babycorn’s smile did not waver. 

“Yeah that’s…” Viggo adjusted his glasses and noticed the wagging tail that Cherrypit now sported. “...That’s a good idea.

no one asked but the music in argenti's quest was driving insane for a while and i was wondering why only to realize that they both sound very ff13-esque.

"Cosmic Sacrifice for Love" sounds like "Giant's Fist" by Naoshi Mizuta

"A Gentleman's Fantasy"... I can't even pinpoint exactly which Masashi Hamauzu song it sounds like BUT IT USES A LOT OF SIMILAR HAMAUZU MOTIFS AND ITS REALLY GOOD LMAO just like listen to "Blinded by Light" :)
