See, I was thinking he could just tap into your bloodstream. If he's hanging out in Rain's pocket we already know where he's getting the cells to convert from, and, well, why overcomplicate the system that's already there?

I may have just answered my own question by realizing that Rain would probably be turbo-weirded out by the more straightforward proposal.

I’m on team Future; no we’re not winning

[pcktknife]

callie actually has one of the higher win streaks in splatfest history at around 6 in a row according to the wiki. i mean this doesn't change the fact that shiver needs to Die but i do take solace in the fact that this kind of thing has happened before

hm yeah she does good for her :)

I MET A KNIGHT AND HE SIGNED MY TICKET AND I GOT TO HOLD HIS HELMET SCREAMING SOBBING!!!!!!!!!!!

[sanitizarium]

yknow maybe the fact that theres three idols makes shiver winning feels so much more... tiring

cause ive looked past at the past games and theres been similar winning streaks for some of the other idols but they havent felt as... bad yknow? Could just be me

YEAH NO THATS ABSOLUTELY THE ISSUE... like theres more variety now so it feels infinitely worse than marina or callie's winstreaks since instead of one member winning over one other member a few times in a row, its one member winning over two members (one of which has only won once) a few times in a row

[ask-frye]

You guysss are the new idolsss everyone is talking abouuuut? Guess it's baaack to choosing teams agaaaain..

(and to the creepy splat tagsss.. the S4 won't go easy on youuu.. we don't support thaaat..)

- Mask, S4's roller maain..

Yeah, and my teams are the best ones, so make sure you’re picking the Frye Fam

SakuRio is fucking unstoppable. She's a MENACE <3

(For potential link rot purposes, this is a video comparing SakuRio's "feeding the camera" skits across DMs a year apart. The original from 2022 was earnest embarrassed rookie. The new one is beautiful confident trolling. A+)

CONGRATS, @songofscreams!! I'm so happy you targeted shorter fics that tend to go overlooked. Please accept this badge to commemorate your victory.

WELL DONE 💛

Comment Bingo Trial Run

Very simple rules: connect 5 squares in a line by completing the task in each square

Very simple goals: encourage readers to comment on fics; encourage fandom writers to KEEP WRITING

STEPS:

Download Bingo Card HERE (png) or HERE (jpg) or HERE (pdf)

Complete the tasks on the card, marking off each as you go, until you've completed 5 in a line (up, down, or diagonal; NO double-dipping; kudos ♥️ is a free space)

REBLOG your winning card (or list your filled squares) and tag me! Glory in your victory.

PROPOSED REWARD:

Bingo Badge!

@ihni and I thought it'd be cool to receive something commemorating a win (who gets bingo first isn't the point—ALL BINGOS are wins), in which case, there could be different tiers of achievement:

Bingo Badge (one line filled)

Double Bingo Badge (two lines filled)

ELITE Bingo Badge?? (ALL squares filled—for the ambitious, or at least for @ihni who will prob eat this card for breakfast)

I can make a badge with my limited Canva skills, but we thought it'd be cool if fandom artists came up with different designs? So if any artists wanna contribute, let me know.

If enough people are into this, I'm open to planning a more organized event, but figured this would be fun to try out for now.

no pressure, just tagging anyone who seemed interested: @sanguine-tenshi, @adelacreations, @redfeathered, @heartbreak-sandwich, @magniloquent-raven, @sepulchralsmile, @inquisitiveadventuress, @mrprettywhenhecries, @1jet2unknown, @iravenish, @six-demon-bag, @billyharringson, @suometar, @tciddaemina, @phoenix-burns-wildly, @lafey, @doctor-of-war-and-heartache, @supercomplicatedperson, @g-arya, @sightetsound, @notanandalitebandit, @hesitantsorrows, @soap-lady, @fan-written, @we-want-mini-mini, @komatsuna-yuki, @calico-kiwi, @pinkittwice, @puppylove24680, @starcourtjesus

WHAT WE REALLY NEED IS A...

FEMININOMENON !!!

HEY! HI! things are rough out here right now, and i think in times of unrest like this, when we're not quite sure what the next day will hold or where our place in the wider world is, community is more important than ever. and i think we're all in agreement when i say fandom can be such a lovely resting spot from all of it so, hey. hi. you have a place here!

this fest is dedicated to female and genderqueer stories, art and edits, aiming to represent those who are feeling unsteady right now, and give us all a bit of space to breathe, be seen, and simply Be.

THE BASICS:

Signups are open here from today (November 11th) until December 13th.

Fanfictions, edits, and fanart are all accepted as submissions

Two servers: 18+ and 16-17 will be placed in separate servers (nothing else is different! just keeping it as safe and comfy as possible <3)

Fics: told from pov of female/gq character(s)

Any era/pairings/au allowed (or no pairings! you pretty much have free reign!)

No minimum of maximum WC for fics: oneshots or first chapter of a multi-chapter fic.

You can do as many submission across as many of the three categories as you want.

EXEMPTIONS: non-con and family pairings are excluded from this fest.

DEADLINE: working deadline of March 1st for submissions - flexible! (taking into account holidays, Jan 20th and all the emotions surrounding that <3)

@hpfemininomenonfest

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE !!!
