starter for @whistlintoons!
How would you feel if you continued to play the same video game over and over and over again? The concept might sound fun at first, but there’s only so much a single video game can offer. Sure, some have more replay value than others--but it’s only natural to want to take breaks every now and again.
That’s why BEN had left the familiar world of Majora’s Mask. He was growing bored of it. While it did tend to bring back many nostalgic feelings, it also reminded him of his time as a human. Being in that world was bittersweet...unless he could mess with someone’s copy of the game.
And since he hadn’t really wanted to do that in a while...he felt he needed a change of pace. So, of course, he took to the internet to see what other kinds of games he might be interested in. Maybe he’d mess with someone through another game?
...Nah. He mostly just wanted a change of scenery. Maybe he’d grow attached to a different world and want to stay there for a while, who knows? But he wasn’t gonna get anywhere by being indecisive. Let’s see...what are some popular games at the moment...
He’d always liked Pokémon alongside Zelda games...but those were all so familiar. Well, except for some of the newer ones. He hadn’t found the time to check those out yet, though Sword and Shield did look pretty cool...although he couldn’t access any unreleased games. So there’s no way he’d be getting there anytime soon.
Hm...what’s another popular one...Deltarune? That would be fine, except that he’d heard rumors about some crazy things going on in some weird variation of that world. Something about a demon and a sentient flower...and some kind of “perfect ending”. Whatever that was supposed to mean...
And, to be honest, he didn’t feel like getting wrapped up in whatever that was. It’d be too chaotic for the time being! He’d have to find something else. Something that wouldn’t get him caught up in an unfinished storyline that currently sat at a solid 7 chapters. Hm...what about...oh!
Here’s one! Bendy and the Ink Machine...was that one of the newer games? He’d heard some positive things about it despite never being able to see the game for himself. Now seemed like as good of a time as ever! Within a moment, his entire body had changed into a bunch of 0′s and 1′s, transporting itself into the game.
Upon arriving in the cartoon-ish world, the 0′s and 1′s formed back into his regular Link-like appearance. Hm. This place definitely had that old cartoon atmosphere...I guess that’s what the game was going for. But where’s that Bendy guy? The one who’s name’s in the title?
...As if on cue, BEN noticed something in the corner of his eye. It looked like a bunch of ink, except...it wasn’t exactly in a puddle on the ground. It was moving. Like...moving in a way that ink shouldn’t able to move. Maybe it was sentient! ...Maybe it was Bendy!
Welp. Only one way to find out! Quickly, he hovered over to the unnatural ink thing, making sure it knew of his presence. He was rather skilled when it came to catching people off-guard with his sudden appearances.

His voice was weird--it didn’t sound like something you’d hear from...well, from anyone, really. It was all...somewhat distorted with a bit of an occasional echo. There was even a small glitch here in there in the way it sounded.
I guess that just goes to show what living in an afterlife like this could do to someone...

Omg! So same anon here that requested the Newt HCs (which I absolutely loved 💕)! What if the reader (same metamorphmagus reader) was fascinated by Newt, wheather its his shy behavior or his love for beasts, and changed looks to people familiar to Newt so he can learn secretly learn more about him?? Maybe revealing himself to Newt at some point to? Oh and headcanons of course~
a/n: hey there anon! firstly, i would like to apologize for taking so long to write your request! i had been having some trouble lately in my end here (with me almost dropping out of school and the big sad™ kicking my ass for months) and i needed some time to hibernate (shut off from any contact with anyone) for awhile. hope i didnt bore you to death on waiting for part two of your request!
second off, im really happy you enjoyed the newt x metamorphmagus [name]! i had fun writing it and will always be open for our beloved newty boy here
anyways, on to the head canons!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[name] had seen newt for awhile now before that one faithful day they had talked to each other near the lake
of course [name] would, newt wasnt really that good at hiding whenever he stalks— i mean, watches over him
at first, [name] absolutely found it creepy
i mean, who wouldn't? a random hufflepuff (no matter how they are stereotypically nice and sweet) boy always somewhere in the shadows, watching over you? its a serious cause for some questionable attraction there
[name] would absolutely like to avoid stalkers as much as possible as he had a run in with thay type of scenario years back before he went to Hogwarts and one run in is enough, thank you very much
but that was before the lake thing
after he actually managed to accidentally met his so called "creepy stalker," [name] actually learned that newt is just a shy hufflepuff boy who wanted to be friends with him but was too shy. like, too fucking shy
we already knew the two boys talked to each other in newt's scenario so lets skip a bit to when they met a second time
[name] was running away from his slytherin friend that he managed to piss off by a prank and run in to newt who was about to call out to him and talk
having no time, [name] just dragged newt and made the poor hufflepuff boy run with him
[name] was rather confused on why newt didnt break away from his grasp in order to escape him from trouble, but [name] was rather happy that the hufflepuff was actually down to suffer with him
newt actually forgotten he had a choice, [name], because you were so fucking handsome grinning and laughing as you both ran away from an angry slytherin
oh Merlin, newt is super gae for you lmao
anyways
after successfully running away from the angry slytherin and losing them in the great hall, both [name] and newt went back towards the lake again on when they first met and converse
it was lowkey sweet and nice to talk to each other again after weeks of not talking
skip to a few more weeks and the two being gay friends with each other, [name] is having trouble with his feelings
just like newt with him, [name] was absolutely fascinated with the hufflepuff boy
[name] doesnt even know why
maybe it was because newt was always so flustered and shy towards him or maybe its because of the hufflepuff's fascination of beasts ("fantastic beasts!" as what newt would say with his eyes holding such adoration in them)
or maybe its because newt actually wanted to know him and not just because of him being a halfy and a metamorphmagus
either way, [name] found newt adorable
like, a lot
its was saddening when [name] realized he couldn't hang out with newt or get to know him much as most of the time, [name] always gets dragged away by his other friends and that newt did confessed a few times how he doesnt like attraction attention towards himself
so, [name] made plans to disguised himself by making use of his own ability to shape shift for being a metamorphmagus
[name] actually took a month and a half to fucking remember he could actually disguise himself to run away from the people who is always swarming him to escape and hang out with newt
please dont be mad at him, he's a smart boyo but he has his times where his braincells yeets themselves away asdahsjajdhkaj
anyways, [name] had already thought of a person to copy their look to get to know newt more in secret
when he saw the right time to get away from the crowd that always drags him away to hang out with newt, [name] change to be that person
it was a bit painful and odd to change into whole new person as [name] mostly just changes the length or color of his hair and not everything about him
but sacrifices must be made to learn more of his favorite hufflepuff. so [name] just sucked it up
[name] lowkey thankful he didnt have to change genders as he picked newt's seatmate in Potions that he saw had been having some conversation towards the hufflepuff from time to time ([name] was so happy they were male and is in his house too so he doesnt have to change into another set of robes)
with him looking like another person, [name] set forth to look for newt
it took a while until [name] saw the hufflepuff boy and surprise surprise, newt was in the lake where they first met
it was odd but [name] felt his heart leap in joy on seeing newt that he almost forgot he didnt look how he normally was and was im disguised
thankfully, newt had noticed him before he could make a fool of himself and reveal who he truly was
newt, was again, a shy boy and was hesitant to talk to the disguised male
it took [name] to even say his own name for newt to actually talk to him
"so... uhh, i saw youre close to [name]"
newt perked up on his friend's name being mentioned and [name] swore he saw newt's freckled cheeks flushing red
with the mention of his name, newt opened up and talked to [name] (who's still in disguised) and [name] was leaping in joy inside his mind when he saw newt talking to him
[name] fully knows newt is so shy and is afraid to converse with others, so, seeing newt talking to others (even if that others is just him in disguise) made [name] proud
anyways, being disguised as newt's seatmate that had talk to him from time to time, all [name] had to do was mentioned anything related to beasts or just him, he could get to talk to Newt
[name] had done this for two weeks, disguising as random students to talk to newt to gain information on what the hufflepuff boy actually thought about him and his own likes or dislikes
[name] would have gone more longer if it wasn't for him getting caught in the act
curse that [Hogwarts house] seatmate of newt that he shape shifted first!
if you want more context, [name] was caught because that seatmate of newt's had borrowed the hufflepuff's noted earlier in Potions and was returning newt's notes back. it just so happens that [name] shape shifted into them again
it was so embarrassing but [name] had to explain or else both newt and the student he shape shifted into would freaked the fuck out
changing back to who he was, [name] awkwardly laugh at the student he shape shifted into and said to them that he was practicing on looking like other people while avoiding eye contact from newt
thankfully, the student was cool with it and even laughed at him and said that he was so cool
it took awhile for them to leave both newt and [name] along but when they did, it was awkward
[name] awkwardly confessed on shape shifting into other people to talk to newt when the hufflepuff boy was quiet and avoided looking at him
[name] was a bit terrified on what newt would think about him when the silence continued on
he was fucking terrified
while newt on the other hand, a bit sad that he doesnt have any new friends since it was just [name] in disguises, was rather fascinated by [name] again
"y... you can s-shape shift your entire... being?"
bless newt and him being fascinated by anything and everything he does because [name] could not live if newt thought he was creepy
but anyways, hearing newt speak to him, [name] perked up and hastily looked at newt
[name] could feel his face heating up when he saw newt looking at his so much awe and adoration in his face
ugh, these two boys are so cute
[name] swear from that point, anything bad would happen to newt, he'll kill everyone in Hogwarts, including himself

stuff about HDM ep 4
don’t know about GREAT THINGS but there are some for sure
let’s break it down binch
- first off, IOREK FUCKIN SLAPS. he’s BIG. he’s GNARLY. he’s BIG BEEF MAN with BEAR-MADE ARMOR that has segments that MOVE WITH HIS BODY. it’s PERFECT.
- buuuuuut his voice kinda sucks. too emotional, too high-pitched, too fast, not growly or deep enough at ALL. Ian McKellan was perfect for it but I would’ve taken someone like.......Iofur’s actor. he was stellar. why not him for Iorek??? switch their actors, Iofur is tryin to be a human anyway he can have the weird emotional tones
- similarly, his eyes are very expressive. probably a boon for visual storytelling, but I really think playing up the theme about bears being inhuman is important. Iorek’s eyes are described as beady and black and unfeeling. they’re almost human in this show, as is his voice, and I don’t like it.
- Lee Scoresby...............................................oh man. I have a lot of feelings about him. I’m gonna leave it to the end cause it’s long.
- Trollesund is really awesome - feels very realistic, very grimy, like an oil town would be. the Sysselman as a character is phenomenal. and IOREK STOMPING ON HIM - LEE LIKE “oh hey sysselman what’s up” is GOLD and you can TAKE IT TO THE BANK BOYO
- Lyra and Farder Coram - Farder Coram talking about Serafina - Farder Coram talking about his SSON I LOVE FARDER CORAM he has done a 180 in two episodes and I adore him now. he’s a lot more robust than the original, subtler Coram, but I like him anyway. he’s close enough but has his own thing going on, and it’s a good thing.
- Dr. Lanselius was a boss ass bitch I really liked him
- THEY KEPT THE CLOUD-PINE SCENE YESSSSSS
- but.....there was no pulling scene with Pan and Lyra facing Iorek. that was one of the best exposition and characterization scenes (and foreshadowing) in TGC and I was REALLY hoping for it. instead we’ve just got that half-assed exposition mention about dæmons being far away. fuck the exposition fairy.
- AND they didn’t let Iorek talk about his fucking motivations as a panserbjorn!!! what!!!!! they had Lee do it - WHY??? Iorek starts getting HEATED and DOES IT HIMSELF what the HELL that line about WAR is ICONIC how DARE THEY!!
- the cardinal is really fucking creepy........especially the way he hunches and slinks around...................A+ on that....
- more golden monkey denial, loving it. loving Mrs. Coulter clawing her way to power by any means necessary even though everyone can see she’s burning herself to the ground in the process
- I LOVE that they’re keeping to Iofur and his bears having weird overly-fancy filigree shiny armor. definitely not bear-made and very wrong.
- Fra Pavel has a great casting. and the little interaction with Boreal is very very ominous.
- Lyra. always Lyra. just, amazing. her humor and her spunk is outstanding. demolish Lee Scoresby, demolish Lord Faa, demolish Iorek, demolish Lee Scoresby’s bacon -
- I love this Hester I don’t even care if she’s not my Hester I love her anyway
- on that note, John Faa STILL doesn’t have a dæmon. ANd, I really don’t like his characterization. he’s so fucking stone cold and serious and hard-headed. he isn’t a man of the people like the original John Faa. he doesn’t have an ounce of warmth or passion. I like that he still respects Farder Coram enough to let him veto things but like........where is my father......this guy is a bonehead
- a few more background dæmons and diversity this time around, including Arctic fox Pan - who is ADORABLE and THEMATIC and PERFECT - so that was nice. still not enough but we’re getting there.
- I love love love Kaisa. I love love love his voice and his mannerisms. I hate hate hate that he’s a gyrfalcon now. his voice is not even CLOSE to being sharp enough to be a falcon. he’s a goddamn goose and I will die on this hill I promise you that. fuck your birds of prey spamming.
OKAY TIME TO SHOUT ABOUT LEE SCORESBY:
he’s good. he’s a good character, on his own. I love Lin, of course, I think he loves the role. good comedy with Hester, very passionate duo. funny, likable. a little morally gray. cute.
he’s not the original Lee Scoresby. and I miss that one. this one is a pickpocket, a loudmouth, and cares WAY too passionately about Iorek.
first of all, the original Lee might have been there to help Iorek, might not have. he was around, it was a stop in his search for work. he’s a bit guarded and he wouldn’t divulge that. this one is storming around demanding someone tell him about Iorek and that he’s gonna help him but uh......once he finds him he kind of gives up, like immediately. why is he so devoted to this bear? he saved his life once? seems a bit more than that. I just don’t get it. he’s a friend sure but Lee Scoresby wants RETIREMENT MONEY, first and foremost. not a bear. no jokes intended.
second of all, the Lee Scoresby I fell in love with would never pickpocket, it’s beneath his standards. he is considerably money-grubbing but not to that extent. it’s a cheap trick and can get you in loads of trouble if you’re caught. he’s an honest criminal, okay. he’ll do illegal shit if you hire him for it, but by god he’s going to get hired right and proper.
he’s not a super subtle guy but he’s laid back - he wouldn’t storm into a place and declare his reason for being there, he’d make careful conversation with a local and try to catch wind of what’s going on. if someone crossed a moral boundary THEN he would fight. he’s.......more mature, smarter. he’s always described perfectly as laconic. that’s his central trait. he’s an observant dude. he’ll stroll right into a situation and wisecrack and help the side he thinks is right, IF he thinks it’s worth the trouble. he doesn’t start fights if he can help it. he’s a hare, not a goddamn rhinoceros.
this Scoresby is most certainly not laconic. this is a different character, and while I like him well enough, and I really ADORE his interactions with Lyra for sure, I am sorely disappointed that I don’t get to see the Lee Scoresby I love on screen for this beautiful adaptation.

Kate's BnHA shitlist
In case there's an important name missing here, it's most likely that they already got what was coming (like, Muscular? what’s up with that weirdo? idk him.) or repented. Otherwise, I just forgot, because honestly? Why think about things I dislike when there's so much else to like instead...
AfO. He knows what he did and is doing and is also enjoying every minute of it. If I wasn't convinced that Tenko, Eri or Inko Midoriya will tear him a new one by the time the story is wrapped up, I'd punch him into the cosmos myself.
The Doctor. Honestly... do I even need to elaborate?! Ujiko is a sick fuck who modded his grandson into a noumu, would have had his way with Shiggy in a heartbeat, and tl;dr he better keep his grimy hands off my half dead gremlin children, and especially Dabi or else (you SEEN how wet this old creep gets over the mere thought of the chimera kid being in lab range??? It sets off like a million red flags, Jesus Christ) (seriously, I wouldn't poke the dude with a 10 yard barbed pole seeped in neurotoxins... thank god there were medics in the mla, I don't want this dude getting near them idiots while incapacitated) He seems to be more of a plot device guy tho, I hope we won't have to look at his mug for too long.
Overhaul. Another bona fide psychopath who also knows what he did in the name of the future of the yakuza. (Did his own adoptive father in and experimented on his granddaughter is what he did, among other things.) Eri better get a chance to disown him face-to-face. Also would love to rearrange that ikemen face myself. One point earned for sick quirk that would be amazing to have in a hospital.
Endeavor. Also knows what he did and has never been nearly as concerned or as mature about it as he should be, so yeah. Opinion is p much the panel of Shouto's visceral disgust when he tries to praise the boyo. He is (and Kotaro to a lesser extent, too) the same breed as my father so he never stood a chance of escaping my ire lmao. Could definitely crawl up and share the No. 3 position of this list with Overhoe, or even dethrone him depending on what Touya has to show us.
Hey, Hawks' manager??? Hope you're stepping on legos first thing in the morning. Detto for the rest of the Commission tbh, this Hawks issue must be the tip of the iceberg.
Then there's whatshisface... Sceptic. Creepy fucker uses psychological warfare. We don't like your kind around here. Fucked up an already unfine lad even more. Fuck you.
Geten is already up here, too. Has yet to do more than talk bullshit and cause collateral damage for the time being, after all. I'm watching you biatch.
ReDestro, your heel turn is funny, but I will still ask: what the fuck.
Kotaro. Cool motive, still abuse. Didn't seem to mean to hit his son with the clipper... definitely should have apologized instead of just screaming stop right after. He's already dead, so whatever.
Himiko's parents are definitely not the best, either... I worry for her siblings, they could be the new targets of their frustration.
Mineta. Just... for being That Trope, personified, with 0 redeeming qualities. (Being friends with someone is not a personality trait, so yeah.) Maybe people are right. Maybe he is the traitor. Would give him more of a personality past whiny perv at least.
Further suspects:
Midoriya Hizashi... the hell you at, bro, and how come you don't keep any contact with your son?! betcha Inko is just covering it up with the ~working abroad~ shit bc the fucker left them...
Mitsuki could be considered as a trash parent for sure, slapping people as a default is... well, that. We have many and much bigger fish to fry, though.

Greedfall Thoughts
Okay, so I’m about 15 hours into Greedfall, so I thought I’d take the time to jot down some of my thoughts and feelings about it, since I’m definitely solidly enough into it to have some.  Warning:  Spoilers ahead, if you haven’t played.  And if you have played it through, PLEASE NO SPOILERS.  I’m enjoying discovering this game with a fresh mind and eyes.
So let’s start with the mechanics.  Combat took remarkably less getting used to than I thought it would.  I’m still getting a bit used to the system, but it’s not as confusing or frustrating as, say, Witcher 3′s combat.  For now, I’ve mostly been spamming my basic fireball-type attack, but I’ve been having fun doing the area-effect stun and healing.  And I dig how when my mana runs low, I can just switch to my melee weapon and smash shit while I wait for my mana to refill.
Leveling up has been interesting, but thankfully, I don’t have to wait too long to hit my next level and get more points.  And my propensity towards exploring every inch of a map has been helping out with that--finding skill altars to get bonus points to spend has been fun.
I’m running into the classic RPG gear problem--something might have better stats, but it doesn’t look good, or it doesn’t match the aesthetic for the character.  Vasco *could* have a much better helmet on his head than his current leather tricorn, but.... the *aesthetic*, man.  Thankfully, I’m playing on easy mode (cause I am ALL about that easy mode life), so keeping everyone outfitted with the best gear isn’t the greatest concern I have, but eventually, I am going to have to give up on the aesthetic and put them all in the best possible gear.
**NOW ENTERING SPOILER TERRITORY**
Story-wise, I’ve finished most of the stuff in New Serene (I’m on an actual keyboard and don’t know how to do accents on letters; sue me), or at least most of the stuff which I’m presuming is “early-game” stuff for New Serene.  I then went to Al Saad, mostly to talk to the governor and to take care of Vasco’s family stuff, but then it was like, “While I’m here, I may as well clear out as much else as I can, right?”  So I took care of some Al Saad stuff, then *finally* moved on to Siora’s personal mission.  Got through all that, went back to New Serene, got the mission to investigate the ruins and Vasco’s mission to prove his loyalty to the Nauts.  Speaking of that mission, what in the HP Lovecraft was that damn creature?  EW EW EW.  And I had to fight ANOTHER one in the ruins?  Not cool, man.  Give me another one of those Ents on crack I fought in New Serene or something.
THEORIES:
So I’m pretty sure that part of why the Congregation is neutral now is because of their failed previous attempt to settle Teer Fradee.  It was just so long ago, it’s been kinda wiped from history/the collective memory, and now the Congregation’s neutrality is just one of those things that’s always been how things are.
Pretty sure Constantin has the malichor.  I mean, I disagree with his assertion that politics from the mainland haven’t followed them to New Serene, but I thought he looked pretty pale and sickly from the beginning, and if he’s still sick several months after the game has started... boyo is probably dying.
I think Siora has the mark of the on ol manawi, too.  I mean, I figure it probably would have come up by now if it was, but comparing the look of it to De Sardet’s birthmark, I’d say they look damn similar.  So like.  Two on ol manawis working side by side, that’s my theory.
OTHER THOUGHTS:
WTF is up with the eerily glowing mountain at the center of the island?  Oh, I’m sure it’ll get explained at the end; don’t spoil it for me.  And it obviously ties into the legend that Siora told about the ruins.  Still.  There’s this mountain that has a bright red glowing gash in it’s side, and everybody’s just like, “Oh yeah, whatever, that’s just the creepy mountain at the center of the island, everybody’s got one of those”?
I’ve already started planning future romances, since this PT, I’m finding myself gravitating towards Vasco (those face tattoos, man.  I just can’t.).  Siora is probably going to get herself a male De Sardet, cause she deserves to be swept off her feet by a big strong man who will be equally swept by her strength and beauty.  I’ll make a girlie for Kurt, even though I find myself firmly believing he also deserves to be swept off his feet by a big, strong man (but that’s why we have fanfiction, lol).
And this current De Sardet?  I’ve decided her name is Cassandra.  Because she shadow-punches bears, and “Have you ever punched a bear?”

Oh no what's this? It's back again? Yup! Welcome back! It's me the judy, back here with another review! This time you think it's gonna be easier, buT NOPE IT JUST HURTS MORE! The second chapter is my favorite so far just because I get so much feels from these heckies! The third chapter was also good, but I will get there once we're finished with this one. Here is the link to the first part along with the second one too! > https://cr-incorrect-quotes.tumblr.com/post/190279246139/cr-incorrect-quotes-hello-welcome-to-my-first
This post will most likely be the same due to there being so many pages that I want to talk about to the point of not being able to fit everything into one so yeah! Expect a part 2 for Chapter 2! If you want to read the comic, here it is > http://children-rekindled.top/?c=1&p=1 Let's start!
Tumblr media
Oh no we all know what this means that little heck is finally back and I was already screaming because of course I would be?? I missed him so much y'all- ALSO DANIEL SOUNDS SO CONFUSED AND THAT HURT CAUSE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IS COMING AND I DON'T WANNA READ IT AGAIN, but surprise! Bon made it worse this time!! I'll get to that later-
Tumblr media
EW EW E W EW When I was first reading this and even now, iT'S SO DISGUSTING?? The visual of a soul just having to come out of a mouth of a corpse is gross in all ways omg I wonder if there is a reason behind Freddy having no eyes in the first panel though?? Apart from the fact that it is just creepy, it doesn't show up anymore. Instead, on the same page, it just goes back to the normal eyes. It was probably just a creepy factor put into it to make it look more morbid, but sometimes creators have reasons!
Tumblr media
Sometimes I sit here, glad nothing else was shown because I would rather not have to see him climb out of there. aLSO SAMMY HELPS HIM OUT AND THAT MAKES ME UWU! he really needs all the help he can get and I'm glad someone is there for him. Y'all don't know how much I love this blind babey boy
Tumblr media
BABEY NOOO IM COMING TO HELP YOUUU This panel is good, bUT SO SAD OMG I WANNA HELP HIM CAUSE HE'S IN A LOT OF PAIN QMQ I don't even wanna know his thoughts right now and how confused he is internally. Does he even consider how he would still be moving around even when suffering this really bad pain? He's probably just in too much shock and denial to wrap his head around it.
Tumblr media
SOBBING SOUNDS Daniel freaking out over this hurts me every time omg I just want to hug him?? He just wants to go home and we all know that at this point, he can't even do that anymore.
Tumblr media
BIANCAAAAAAAA What was she even doing?? Unlike Daniel, she had somehow already gotten out, but was just staring at the ground?? Was she confused about something and just lost in thought to the point of completely zoning out till Daniel realized she was there? Maybe she wasn't even there for long. She could have been still processing all of this pain(?) ALSO DANIEL'S REALIZATION THAT HIS NAME WAS SAID MAKES ME SOB I LOVE HIM SM
Tumblr media
can Bianca hug me like that??? Please???? I want someone to hug me like that one day I'm gonna beg- SHE'S HECKIEING CRYING AND THAT HURTS A LOT IM QWQ I mean of course she would be?? She saw Daniel die right in front of her. Bianca being so worried yet not even questioning how he isn't just dead already due to the severe blood loss makes me really wonder how much denial they are going through at the moment. Although who would wanna think they died and became a ghost? For people who don't even believe in that stuff, it would be hard to even accept. If you're a ghost, that means you're dead. There's no going back. ALSO THE PUPPET STARES INTO MY SOUL AND IS TERRIFYING- everyone thank bon for giving us another terrifying image
Tumblr media
AHAHA N E C C the smol good girl is coming very soon and I'm so excited!! I love her sm,,why is she hiding though?? Did she get scared due to all of the screaming and sounds going on around that she just decided to hide behind this big animatronic that could protect her from the dangers out there?
Tumblr media
THANKS FOR CALLING HER OUT CAUSE SHE'S SMALL BIANCA- Well Charlie's design is definitely a lot different than the one in the original! She still looks heckieing red and burned up, but doesn't have that weird mouth like last time.
Tumblr media
OH NO OH NO NO NO SAMMY WHAT HAVE U DONE- Charlie is already starting to freak out and that hurts. I love the different reactions we get here because Charlie is just in denial, hoping it is a dream while Daniel doesn't even look like he has proceeded it all fully yet till the next page where he is basically having a complete mental breakdown. I really want to know how Bianca feels about this entire thing too.
Tumblr media
THERE IS A LOT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HERE! For one, it might be one of my favorite pages that really hit me hard to the point of being my emotional mess of a self- I feel as though Bon really portrayed them reacting to being dead rather well? Or at least he did with Daniel and it hit in the feels right enough. Being someone who would die for Daniel, it hurt reading this for the first time because I'm sure we all want to do what Bianca does and just give him a tight hug. Did them freaking out happen in the original? I don't remember actually? from what I remember, Bianca was the one reacting the most to all of it- Bianca just crying over how Daniel is having this mental breakdown really hurt because she wants him to be okay and realizing they aren't would just hurt to the point of actually going and comforting him. I REALLY WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HOW SHE FEELS WITH THE SITUATION- Was her breaking down because of Daniel being all sad mixed with her just reacting to the entire thing?? It's also shown in Chapter 3, but Bianca is really caring towards Daniel and most of the time wants to make him feel better in certain situations. If she wasn't able to save or even help him before, this is her chance now.
Tumblr media
FRANCIS IS CRYING AGAIN I REPEAT FRANCIS IS CRYING-
Like I said before, the difference in reactions towards all of this is great. It's obvious that he was emotional about it too, but instead of having some sort of mental breakdown, he just "accepted" it and tried to figure out what they can do. It's understandable cause what else are they supposed to do when in front of reality??
Tumblr media
OMG POOR BOYO!! HOW IS HE EVEN STANDING AIAUFIAKF for a while, I just thought his side got slashed and he bled out, nOT THAT HIS ENTIRE SIDE JUST GOT RIPPED OUT LIKE WOW OK THAT MUST HURT LIKE HELL- honestly Francis feeling really sorry about not being able to save Charlie just hurts sm?? THESE KIDDOS FEEL BAD CAUSE THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO SAVE ONE ANOTHER AND IT JUST HHH 
Tumblr media
OH NO NOT THIS AGAIN DAMMIT- At least this time it's not coming out of a mouth of a corpse, but jeez Sammy pls chill- I love how the black substance just goes along with the mouth so it looks like the inside of the Puppet's mouth is just oil or some black liquid. Speaking of that, I also love how the blood is black!! I forgot the reason for that, but it gives them a cool look!
Tumblr media
sammy please chill
they don't even know him yet and he's acting like a complete psychopath. If I was logical, I would think he is! Being there for who knows how long would do something to someone! Especially something would could easily be hinted at here through his insanity even when just getting out. 
Tumblr media
I don't trust his cute face, but dammit I love him so much already?? Like he was just acting all crazy a pAGE BEFORE, AND NOW HE LOOKS LIKE A SMOL SQUOFT??? It really shows how much he can switch between personalities. I fear for the future after this experience. 
Tumblr media
"Oh, you noticed. Heh." UH YEAH OF COURSE?? IT'S A KNIFE IN YOUR CHEST???
ALSO AHAHAHA FRANCIS'S FACE I CAN'T HANDLE IT
Honestly I feel bad for Daniel because all of this stuff is going on and he can't even see anything?? Like if something really bad just suddenly happened, he would have no idea because all he can get from the situation are the reactions from his friends. I wonder how terrifying it would be when there's so much sound around like during the day?? Big hugs for Daniel y'all 
Tumblr media
wow possession! That's really cool, bUT WHAT IS GOING ON NOW OH NO- 
Tumblr media
OH HECKIEING BEES THAT'S NOT GOOD- Michael's design was heavily changed from last time, but honestly I adore this design sm?? There is a lot less wires so yay he isn't just a bloody mess like last time!! Okay but I wonder if Michael could still take off his head like last time?? Last time, that was shown through some anger from Francis, but this time it's different and that's not shown!! I wonder if it will ever be though.
Tumblr media
MICHAEL NO THAT'S NO WHAT A SANE PERSON SAYS- although I mean?? He does have a point! Even though being dead is a huge hit in general and idk how that would even feel, actually being with friends could have a huge impact on the situation. Imagine if only one died and was stuck there? That would have a completely different impact. I don't think Michael should brush off the fact that they are all dead now, but I do understand why he even mentions that. Trying to stay positive, but maybe try a bit differently babey-
Tumblr media
The part I feared the most, but actually turned out really good? Around the beginning at least! In this version, Francis has much more of a reason for actively being really upset at Michael especially due to what he just said. Although maybe he should chill a bit because some things he says are really eh?? Michael never meant it like that and Francis is just freaking out and yelling at him, but like I said, he actually has a reason and I can't stay that mad. I would hate this entire thing too, although I would be a lot more emotional than angry 
Tumblr media
OKAY THAT'S REALLY OVER THE LINE FRANCIS HOLY HECK-
Charlie has all the rights to be upset at him because him just saying that iS AWFUL?? LIKE DUDE YOU ALL ARE DEAD AND YOU ARE APOLOGIZING FOR SAVING HIM AND SAYING THAT IF YOU HAD KNOWN, YOU SHOULD HAVE JUST LET THE PERSON KILL HIM?? UH- THAT'S NOT NICE AT ALL PLEASE APOLOGIZE
Tumblr media
TELL EM SAMMY!
at least in this version, he gets to the point and it isn't just walls of text aHAIDIAOGKS Sammy please don't blame Daniel though?? He's heCKIEING BLIND WHAT THE HECKIE COULD HE EVEN DO?? wAIT OH NO. IF THIS IS A REBOOT THEN SOME SCENE WITH DANIEL AND SAMMY MIGHT BE REDONE HH IM AFRAID IT'S GONNA EITHER BE MORE FEELS RELATED OR JUST MORE CHILL THAN LAST TIME DUE TO THE PACING?? Sadly it’s time for me to go and make the next part thing to take away from this? This chapter is my favorite so far because of all the feels and there is more so get ready for that!! I'll be back with part 2 eventually! Most of us knows what happens there. Will Sammy find Michael? How will he actually help? Find out next time on aaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Tumblr media
i was right. i’m always right.
the professor is...............................a nerd
he got dick hardly laid a lot
god stupid boyo i love u proff
oh god dick hardly is a fuckboy 
i knew it but i’m so tired
why didn’t the professor tell the girls there was a visitor coming beforehand
dick like, “still into the science stuff? what a geek.” 
my dude yall had the same major
“i was just in the neighborhood and wanted to see what the old roommate was up to”
oh my god i can’t believe how VIOLENTLY i hate dick hardly
it hasn’t been a whole two minutes yet and i am seething with rage
the man just lets himself in???? and starts looking around like he owns the place ??????????????? i’m gonna kill him
how is dick not surprised by the fact that the professor has kids but is surprised by the fact that they have superpowers
this just in, dick was probably around when @jojoisnomo​ was born. he just never paid enough attention and completely forgot the professor’s child was a boy because he didn’t care.
it has officially been two minutes.
dick hardly is the og mysterio / quentin beck. no i do not accept criticism.
my princess literally blowing away cobwebs while bloss incinerates shit. bubbles literally lifting tons of equipment to clean underneath it. we stan casual uses of superpowers in this home.
of course dick’s got them money hungry eyes.
i’mma kill him
nIcE tO mEeT yOu PrOfEsSoR dIcK
tell you what, he was aptly named
“your girls? you mean, you made those things?!”
things
god i hate him
the professor also does not correct the use of the word “things” and now i am salt
“YOURE SITTING ON A GOLDMINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
i can’t believe even mojo jojo was a better person than dick hardly. we stan.
“WE COULD MAKE A FORTUNE WITH THESE THINGS”
WE FIGHTIN DICK
“DO YOU THINK WE COULD MARKET THEM AS A FOOD”
HE’S OKAY WITH THE CANNIBALISM OF CHILDREN????????????

he’s a manipulative piece of shit and i’m gonna kill him
bubbles is the one who decides to give him chemical x because she wants to help
professor dick couldn’t get it outside of the professor’s house. this leads me to believe that it is rare and hard to get even for someone in the same field as the professor, which i assume they are since the professor talks about them being in the same classes, and he’s referred to as professor dick. i imagine dick was disgraced from his field if he can’t get chemical x.
it has been five minutes.
i can’t believe dick goes to a place called “abandoned evil factory” to make knock off ppg. i hate this.
a literal drop of chemical x is enough to cause an explosion. the girls have way more than a drop in them.
townsville has a crime rate of 0.003??? not likely. dick made that shit up.
the knock off girls are. strange.
they only say one phrase each.
the girls literally try to cover their asses. i love my girls.

we stan a little liar
townsville is def not in new york. bubbles says, “we’ve never been to new york!”
blossom is also a liar.
we stan tiny liars
the professor doesn’t even question them going to new york on their own i’m dying
these girls are generally freaked out by carbon copies of themselves but not by the rrbs
we do not stan the knock off girls
is dick also making merchandise????? 
fuck this is creepy
there’s a knock off mojo jojo too
the knock off girls are literally falling apart. they’re losing limbs.
how are the girls still keeping these lies up
proff how have you not noticed
thEY’RE ONLY GOOD FOR THREE TO FIVE HOURS??????? 
THEY LITERALLY HAVE A FIVE HOUR LIFE SPAN????
OH GOD
how is he using the powerpuff girl name. how is that not copyrighted by someone else. this seems like something the mayor would have done already.
dick hardly is literally why the girls protect the recipe for their creation with their goddamn lives
they thought the city of duseldorff was a whole person i can’t with my girls
kick their aSSES MY GIRLS I STAN
he literally wants to destroy three five year old girls because he wants more chemical x
the girls are going overboard with the word dick. they’re enjoying this.
dick just swallowed a shitton of chemical x.
they know damn well chemical x is not suited for human consumption. bubbles asks if he’s okay.
dick goes chemical x monster
“don’t mess with the real powerpuffs!” but my girls are still getting their butts kicked
 here comes the professor my baby
the girls are literally being killed for the chemical x. there cannot be an easier way to get it
they have the same sickly look about them as when they got sick with the advanced virus the ameoba boys accidentally created. leads me to believe that that virus had to do with chemical x too.
the girls literally cannot exist without chemical x in their system. headcanon confirmed. 
the professor is begging to be taken instead i cannot breathe i’m crying
“you’ll stay here and make x forever?”
okay update chemical x is a professor invention
“oh dick... what have you made?”
the professor says he loves his daughter and i’m not crying i’m sobbing like a fucking child
“I SAID TAKE THEM AWAY YOU MUTANTS” 
dick is so screwed
the professor, so very human, grabs all three of his girls and fuckin bOOKS IT
his love “saves” the girls
chemical x is a constantly renewable source within the girls. their bodies make it, which is why they were able to revive themselves after having been nearly drained by professor dick.
ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTE POWERPUFFS

Of Perfect Afternoons and Purposeful Encounters
(Aka, I've been in Good Omens and Constantine bliss for several weeks and this is what my brain made. I may upload it to ao3 later, but here, have a fic. I hope the read more worked, if not I'm sorry.)
-
They are arguing about ducks.
The spring weather is perfect. Blue sky just clear enough, the sun shining bright and warm, and fluffy clouds rolling by like a true Pareidolia effect. It is a picturesque afternoon only heard of in fairy tales and children's books, and John Constantine trusts it as much as he does the blokes he's watching.
Which is to say, not at all.
Dropped off from the Waverider, he returned to present day London not a week ago when he was accosted by his once feathery shadow. John would have paid a pack of smokes to see Manny as ruffled as he was, if it did not come with the news there that had been an Apocalypse while he was away.
"Almost an apocalypse," Manny had corrected, though he was being rather tight lipped about everything else concerning the near destruction of planet Earth.
It irritated John more than usual, partly because he lived on said planet, but mostly because he worked very hard - read: scammed, murdered, sent to Hell, tricked, etc - to keep Earth from being destroyed, let alone overtaken by a bunch of feather minded twats.
"I couldn't disobey orders, Constantine," and of course that was his excuse, all pompous righteousness and conviction. "We could not let Hell win."
But what about Earth?
John was fairly sure his bland look said as much and kept it steady as he lit his cigarette and blew smoke into the berk's face. "So, what made it almost an apocalypse instead of a real Apocalypse?"
And really, he did not think Manny could be even more ruffled, but boy, was he in for a treat.
An angel. A demon. And an Antichrist.
It sounded like a set up for some terrible joke a youth minister would tell his teenager audience as he tried to seem likeable to the younger generation.
Oddly enough, John found himself greatly amused by it. Or maybe by the fact that Manny was so unamused by it. Either way...
After a titch more prodding and being generally annoying, John was able to get enough information to find the culprits who helped avert the almost apocalypse. He thought it would be difficult, that they would have been in hiding or off world and into the stars.
But, nope. Here they are. All three of them enjoying the perfect afternoon out at St. James Park. The antichrist, literally just a child for Chri- Someone's sake, is running around playing fetch with his dog, whilst the angel and demon, looking incredibly human if not for their aura, are arguing on the proper diet of ducks.
"Because bread isn't what they eat naturally, my dear. They need the nutrients of oats and corn and the like."
"I don't think bread is naturally consumed by anyone, it's just consumed, angel. And where did you get all this from, all this duck knowledge?"
The angel - Aziraphale, Manny had called him - flusters under the scrutiny, but holds his head high when he says, without an inch of irony, "The interwebs!"
"Oh, for Some-!"
"You kept insisting I try the dreadful thing and now-!"
"And the first thing you did was look up what to feed ducks?"
John can think of several better uses of his time than listening to them bicker like an old married couple. As of right now, he is having a complicated time wrapping his head around the fact that these two are even here right now.
Not that they are an angel and demon that disobeyed orders. Not even that they did so because they vastly prefer each other's company. He can understand all that, see, ecause it happens all the time. John's even known a few of outliers much the same.
It's the fact that these two are alive and well and not utterly snuffed out.
John knows this star-crossed lovers bollocks doesn't last. That it doesn't end so much in Shakespearen tragedy as it just ends, painfully and no lesson learned besides the cold truth of Love Doesn't Win. There are no happily ever afters, no driving away into the sunset, not for Tali and Ellie, and not for these three currently on both Heaven and Hell's shitlist.
John regards them with cool distance as he places a cigarette between his lips and snaps his fingers to light it. He almost feels sorry for them, if sympathy didn't mean getting his own neck-
"Those are bad for you, you know."
"Jesus Christ!" For how much he has been watching them, John is surprised the kid snuck up on him. But then again...
"I reckon I'm the opposite of him, actually." The boy, and he does look just like that, a human child, stands next to him under the tree's shade. His small dog yaps at John as if he poses a smidgen of a threat to the Antichrist. Manny said his name is Adam.
"Yeah," John starts as he settles himself back down, taking a deep inhale and blowing it away from the boy. "Suppose you are."
"Like I said, those are bad for you. My dad tells me all the time never to pick one up, they tar your lungs and smell bad." A thoughtful expression passes through on his deceptively charming face as he finally quiets his dog. Then he continues, in that blunt, oversharing way children do. "But then he sneaks off sometimes when my Mum's parents are over. My name's Adam, by the way, Adam Young."
"I know. John Constantine, petty dabbler of magic," he says before he can stop himself from being honest. Something tells him he can trust the kid. John doesn't like that. Still, he talks, "Plenty of ways to die out in the world. I don't believe this will be what does me in."
"No, Mister Constantine, I reckon not. Still, they don't seem like they taste good." And there is a strange tilt to his head, his golden locks shifting as he stares curiously at the trailing smoke.
"I'm not letting you try it," John says. He doesn't know what he expected when engaging with the literal Antichrist, but it's become pretty clear to him that a brat is a brat, no matter their stock.
Adam pouts. "I didn't say-"
"Didn't have to."
The boy crosses his arms and glances towards the angel and demon couple, who have switched topics of conversation but are still very much bickering.
"Well, it's bad for everyone else around you," he says petulantly and the embers at the end of John's cigarette suddenly die out.
"I was enjoying that, you little-"
"And I'm supposed to be enjoying an afternoon with my Godparents. Not getting second hand smoke."
Bright blue eyes pin John in place. He feels himself stuck like stone, unable to move away from under the child's accusing stare. Immediately, his mind starts racing, trying to grab onto enough of a distraction that he can make his escape mostly unharmed.
He should've known stalking the Antichrist was a bloody stupid idea.
"Godparents?" John tries not to let on how terrifying this is. "Those two your Godparents?"
Adam blinks before glancing back at his supposed Godparents. John can breathe again. "Of course they are. I already have human parents, but never Godparents. It's like having some really wicked uncles. They bring me gifts from all over the world, and Mister Fell let's me read in his shop and Mister Crowley let's me ride front in his car, and they both help me out when things happen and I don't rightly know what to do." Adam says this seemingly all in one breath, but he isn't gasping by the end of it.
He stands there, with his perfectly curled hair and his scuffed shoes and his ripped jeans and looks as at ease as ever. The dog sits dutifully between him and John, and they paint a lovely innocent picture. Except John knows who, what, he is and the deeper meaning to his words hidden just beneath the surface. Adam is a child, yet can already dominate a conversation, persuade you to be honest, and can hold his audience's attention just as easily as he can slip away in a crowd.
John knows he is going to be a dead ringer when he's older. If he gets older.
"They stood with me that day, said they'd stay and they meant it." When John doesn't reply, Adam looks up at him and that intense awe that struck him before resurfaces again. Adam is as every bit supernaturally charged as the Antichrist has every right to be, no matter disowning his own Father, and he finally says "I won't let nobody hurt them. Not the other gangs, not their bosses, and not some nosy magician. Nobody."
John stares back at Adam and understands where they stand now. He understands why it took so long for him to get close, why Manny refused to join him, why Adam is talking to him now, why Aziraphale and Crowley get to have their happily ever after.
"Alright, alright," John says, hands up in surrender. "Message delivered loud and clear, boyo. I'm not here to cause trouble, I won't bother you lot none."
Adam stares at him some more, the creepy little bugger, before nodding his head in confirmation. Like either John is being truthful, or it doesn't matter if he isn't because Adam can make it true.
Strangely enough, or probably not, given his situation, John is telling the truth.
"That's fair. I gotta go now, they won't be distracted much longer, and Mister Fell will wants to take us to a fish place for lunch. He calls it shew-sea or something, but he swears by it and I like trying the new foods he shows me," Adam says in that casual long windedness of his. The youthful bounce in his step carries him away in seconds, but not without allowing him to wave back at John, like this was a friendly conversation, like John is some friendly neighbor. "Goodbye, Mister Constantine! Don't light your smoke again till you're outta the park, please!"
And just like that, the Antichrist - Adam - is gone, returning to his safe little world that he guards and protects.
John watches as the angel and demon break from each other to gather their ward, their Godson. He doesn't move from his spot until they've walked out of sight. And even then, he remains under the tree's cool shade from the perfect afternoon's sunlight.
Depite what he was told, or really, in spite of it, John places his cigarette back between his lips and snaps his fingers. It relights to his delight. And just in time for Manny to appear beside him.
"For Go- Someone's sake! Can you lot not sneak up on me?"
"Well?" Manny leads, having absolutely no remorse for his actions.
"Well, what?"
"What did you learn, Constantine?" Manny tries again, exasperated of the human's bullshit.
John stares at him sidelong as he takes a deep inhale. Mixed feelings turn in his stomach, feelings he doesn't want to sort through, but still bubble to the surface as he thinks of an answer. They burn bright in his mind.
He thinks about what Adam said, about Crowley and Aziraphale chattering to each other like love sick fools, about their odd little family. John thinks about almost apocalypes and how despite Manny saying he couldn't disobey, there were clearly some of his stock who did, who stood up for Earth against Heaven and Hell. John thinks about Cheryl and Gemma, about Chas and Zed, about the Legends. He remembers Tali and Ellie and their stolen child.
Finally, with an exhale of smoke to the angel's face, John says with distinct human stubbornness, "Fuck off, Manny."

Help I’m being harassed by the #1 sexeist man! Review
Sorry I had this mostly finished on the backburner for awhile but Soulless grabbed my attention pretty hard.  BUT NOW THIS IS FINISHED! I hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
Summarize
So the story is as follows…Takato is an actor who was voted Japan’s sexiest man for a few years in a row. However his title is usurped by this dude named Junta that he’s working on a new movie with.  Takato is salty about this but is professional about it and just kinda harbors secret bitter feelings.  He is polite to and gives advice to Junta when asked.  Junta invites him out to drinks, Takato doesn’t want to but everyone within a 5 mile radius swoops in to pressure him into it so he caves.
GOD WHY IS THAT A THING? That for sure happened in Love Stage and I’m sure I’ve seen that trope elsewhere.  Where not just a 3rd party will pressure a reluctant uke but like a fucking horde of strangers with nothing to gain from it just crawl out from under the fucking floor boards like little hack-handy roaches to advance this shitty plot.
ANYWAY!
Junta gets Takato drunk, films embarrassing stuff that he threatens to blackmail him with, and a fucking horror scene of a rape ensues.  Like, not dissimilar from Junjou in the fact that the atmosphere is drawn as oppressive, the uke is riddled with very palatable fear, the seme wears crazed expressions, and behaves violently.  Hell, Takato manages to shove him off and tries to lock himself in the bathroom for his own safety but Junta rips the door off its fucking hinges. Takato PLEADS like BEGS for him not to but he is violently raped against the wall while Takato cries saying OUT LOUD that THIS IS RAPE!  Afterwards he’s crying and shaking, talking out loud about how he’s frightened if others find out and feeling humiliated.
Junta picks him up and is like, “Man I guess I got carried away, but like REAL TALK I have a crush on you. The rape was kinda bad I guess, but it’s not my fault cause I literally cannot control any of my actions. I can prove I like you by having gentle sex with you in the bed.”
Takato agrees to this.
I BEG YOUR FUCKING PARDON?!
The implication here is that Junta just looked SO SWEET! But like also it wasn’t gentle sex at all and Junta is going to continue to blackmail him. HAR HAR!
Like here is a hot fucking take authors and fans of this particular type of garbage… that kind of writing does not make this more consensual and okay.
Like if you threw a dude in a pit full of scorpions, and he is being stung by a thousand stingers and the poison is slowly and painfully shutting down all of his bodily functions and it’s all really gruesome…but then someone asks if he wants to be saved and the dude in the pit goes from screaming in agony to saying, “Actually I like it down here.”
Does that mean being pushed into that pit, and what he went through in that pit is okay? NO
What does him suddenly wanting to marry all of those 1000 scorpions mean?
IT MEANS YOU’RE A FUCKING HACK WRITER WILLFULLY CONTRIBUTING TO RAPE CULTURE FOR A QUICK BUCK YOU HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!
Like you can have your stories where a rapist is redeemed from his awful actions, but more often than not I see these fucking outrageous hairpin fucking turns in writing.  
I mean, Junta does apologize?  Which is better than some semes but honestly I’d rather him not even bother because he’s not sincere.  He apologizes all the time for the sex acts he puts Takato through but goes on to blackmail him, hurts him, abducts him, and threatens him to his face with more rape. LIKE NOT EXACTLY FEELING AS IF YOU TOTES CARE ABOUT HOW HE FEELS ABOUT ALL THIS, BOYO!
The next chapter while they’re being filmed for the show Takato throws him against the wall and hijacks the dialog to make it sound sexually threatening.  Takato IN HIS MIND ADMITS “DAMN HE’S ACTUALLY USING ENOUGH FORCE TO HURT ME!!!!”  So after this shot, Takato gives Junta some advice and makes no shit, this fucking face…                        
Tumblr media
And that…face, (improperly attached to what I presume is a series of straws coated in plaster masquerading as a neck)  gives Junta that GOTTA RAPE NOW BONER!
So that’s what happens, he just violently drags off a kicking and screaming Takato in the middle of shooting and no one bats a fucking eye. SEEMS LEGIT!  What’s baffling to me is they don’t even draw a sex scene for this.
MY BRO, WHAT IS EVEN THE FUCKING POINT THAN OF ALL THESE RAPE SCENERIOS IF THERE AREN’T HIDEOUS MELTING FACES AND WACKY INFLATABLE TUBE MAN BODIES TO GO WITH IT!?
But afterwards Junta says the classic creepy shit, “Give up already and become mine. I have no intention of giving you to someone else.” WE KNOW THE DRILL!
Takato looks up at Junta and goes, “Yeah guess I love this dude.”
AND LIKE FOR WHAT? FOR HUH? WHAT’S GOING ON HERE!?!!??!?!?!?!?
But also, are you fucking joking here? Like I’m not into the 10 volumes of “Am I gay or not?” bullshit we get in yaoi. But, depending on the pace and characterization, there’s nothing wrong with dragging out the love being 100% mutual. Here’s it’s in chapter fucking 2.  Even Junjou went at a slower pace than that.  When I read that I couldn’t help feeling like, “WELL WHAT’S THE CONFLICT IN THE NEXT 3 AND A HALF VOLUMES GOING TO BE?”
Which, admittedly is unfair, there can be lots of relationship conflict outside of mutually expressed love…However for a rapist/tsundere dynamic? That’s usually at least 75% of the conflict.  But oh, maybe this means we’re going to get different kinds of drama!  So even while it’s not good, we’re going to get something different!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
It’s utter NOT-CONFLICT is what we end up with.  3 different chapters are, “I haven’t seen much of him, that must mean he’s bored of me. Wah! Oh it turns out he was just busy. Oh that’s good.”  PAGING FUCKING JUNJOU WITH THAT SUPER FUN, ENGAGING, AND INTERESTING CONFLICT HARDY FUCKING HAR!
Then we take a hard right into sorta worst rapist territory.  What do you mean by SORTA worst rapist Faps?
Well……
There’s a new actor Takato is working with and this new actor, and the new actor’s coding as a bad guy is about as subtle as a punch to the mouth. So new actor gets Takato drunk enough for him to pass out, gives him a hickey and ????????????
2 things happen in these situations in yaoi typically
1.)    SOMEHOW the seme MAGICS his way there beats up the worst rapist
2.)    This happens after the uke and seme have a fight. So uke realizes how mean he was for not being 100% down with all the seme’s shitty behavior cause there is a worst rapist out there. He runs crying to the seme apologizing and conflict solved.
We sorta get the 2nd here…but not in a straight-forward way.  For one there is no fight beforehand to set up any kind of relationship development.  What happens is that Takato wakes up mortified at the possibility he was raped while he was asleep.  He staggers around both in denial and utter shame.  Seme shows up and like only adds to this panic by yanking him around, forcefully washing his body, and screaming that his SLUTTY, SLUTTY FACE MANIPULATES MEN into raping him.  The seme tells him that they don’t have to have sex.  Which good, but I mean the scene is not framed as if Takato is doing this out of kindness but almost as a dare. The implication being if Takato doesn’t consent that he is the OTHER MAN’S BOY NOW and they should just break up. So there is implicit pressure there, but he does seem to initial consent.  Yet during the sex Takato internally cries about how much he hates it because his boyfriend is hate fucking him but he can’t say NO because than his boyfriend will hate him more.
LIKE FUCKING BIG YIKES MY FRIEND! IT’S SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE!
Which like, I could see a post-assault sex scene full of the emotional intensity of the anger, guilt, shame, fear all intermingling within both of them working well. (Not that post assault consensual sex is much of a thing.)  That they’re trying not to think of what Takato went through but it’s eating at both of them.  THAT COULD BE A REALLY INTENSE, WELL DONE SCENE!  However this is framed like seme ~taking back what’s his~ in a really cold, pissed-off way that’s AT BEST really insensitive to what the uke just went through and his current emotional state.  While Takato ~letting him~ cause he’s afraid his bf hates him for getting raped by someone not him.  Junta also disappears without a word, making Takato fear that YEP HIS BF DON’T WANT HIM CAUSE HE’S DAMAGED GOODS NOW!
But who has to apologize? THE UKE!
Also it turns out Takato was not raped cause worst rapist couldn’t get it up after Takato said his bf’s name in his sleep.  This is framed as better not cause of what the uke went through, but he didn’t really CHEAT so Junta can forgive him.
LIKE REALLY MY DUDE? YOU STARTED THIS OFF WRITTEN TAKATO MORE REALISTICALLY DEALING WITH THE DENIAL, DISGUST, AND SHAME OF ASSUALT AND INSTEAD JUST DEGRADED INTO THE SAME VICTIM-BLAMING HORSESHIT! GET FUCKED!
So the resolution is that the relationship is fixed and Junta threatens and blackmails the rapist. Which, I’m glad he didn’t get off scot-free but those interactions felt less like protecting the safety of Takato and more like, HE’S MY PROPERTY NO TOUCHY!
So from here we take a big turn.
Most of the 3rd volume is a big back-track to the beginning of their relationship before it was romantic or sexual.  And boy howdy it feels like a retcon for the fuck awful pace of the 1st volume.
Basically it’s about how Junta became obsessed with Takato while working on a movie cause idk he’s pretty and he accidently heard Takato say something shitty about him once. While I wouldn’t call this good the fact that they actually let this blooming of affection take place makes it the best chapters so far.
Like at the end Junta resolves himself to let his feelings be known and to start a romantic relationship with Takato.  Without the context, that felt like almost sweet? That he’s accepted his gay feelings and wants to share his life with Takato.  However if you REMEMBER THE CONEXT it means that Junta planned to drug, blackmail, and rape Takato WHICH YANNO REALLY TAKES A SHIT ON YOUR CUTE LITTLE FEATHERS BLOWING IN A BREEZE TO GO WITH HIS CUTSY MONOLOG YOU SHIT-SUCKER!
But lordy the next chapter comes along which is a retelling of this prequel from Takato perspective. The only saving grace here is that it’s not nearly as long as Junta’s.  Basically Takato realizes that Junta is OUT for him, and has a fucking frightened panic attack in his car afterwards. He’s literally shaking and monologing about how scary the situation and Junta are.  And this isn’t me even inferring words in Takato’s head, he repeats scary over and over.  Takato even decides to over book himself so he’ll have fewer chances to interact with Junta. So he does the classic ~pass-out from overwork~ thing so Junta can save him and from here we immediately transition to,
Oh now it’s modern day and they’re banging…..okay????? VOLUME ENDS
The next plot point comes down to this:
Paparazzi are OUT TO GET THEM! There is a photo leaked that isn’t really suggestive at all and Takato pretty much loses his job for it. However Takato finds out there is a much more damning picture of him and Junta, so he decides to break up with Junta, and like…just literally do whatever the paparazzi wants in order to protect Junta. But like, what’s the point of hiding it from Junta? And if this dude is going to blackmail you, what are you going to do to make sure their demands end or don’t get to the point that they’re unfeasible to continue giving in to them?
HAHA OH WELL!
Takato doesn’t even get to see the paparazzi again, his producer finds out and sexually assaults him to PROVE A POINT!
AND BOY HOWDY I’M WAY INTO THAT TROPE! LOOKING AT YOU OURAN HOST CLUB!
Cause HAHA nobody could literally want anything out of a wealthy, well-connected actor other than gay rape amirite?
Meanwhile Junta is cultivating a rumor that he’s having an affair with an actress.  Cause of fucking course Junta figured that the only reason his boyfriend (whom is often upset at how shitty he gets treated by him) is an elaborate ploy to protect him from the paparazzi.  But you know OF COURSE we see the actress and Junta flirting a bunch to stir the pot in a private setting but like…they only need to be seen on an outside date once.  This means that he’s fucking lying if he says that he only did it to SAVE BOTH OF THEM FROM THE PAPARAZZI.  He was getting a kick out of it, which I think you could argue that he was being unfaithful or in the very least being a fucking dick about it.
But, Junta goes on TV and says that he’s not having an affair with the actress or with Takato but he is moving in with Takato.
Yeah nothing dispels rumors of an intimate relationship like the announcement that they’re MOVING IN TOGETHER!  Now, as I understand it, the housing market is very different in Japan from the west and therefore it’s less of a huge TELL of an intimate relationship if two people move in together.  But even if that’s the case, saying you’re moving in with someone you’re accused of having an affair with…is not helping my friend.
However it is phrased this way, and immediately the entirety of the media believes this whole-heartedly, and the paparazzi guy (despite having a much more damning picture he hasn’t released) is like, “Wowzers he’s so smart, he has BEAT ME! I’m giving up being paparazzi.  That man CHANGED MY LIFE FOR THE BETTER! HOW COULD I EVER THANK HIM!?”  Even the fucking company that hired this paparazzi guy is like, “WELL I’M TAKING MY BUSINESS IN A NEW BETTER DIRECTION! THAT JUNTA GUY SURE, SHOWED ME!!!!”
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING!? You might as well have every criminal in Japan throw their hands up going, “WELL GOLLY!  DID YOU SEE HOW GREAT THE ACTUAL RAPIST AND ABUSER JUNTA IS? BEST NEVER DO A BAD THING EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
GO EAT EVERY DICK!!!!
That’s pretty much the end up to this point.  I mean, there are some odds and ends chapters here and there but they’re pretty much excuses for sex chapters. And like, even though those are pretty rapey, I kinda respect them more than when you attempts to interject some semblance of relationship drama, cause holy hell that paparazzi shit ugh.
Though if you’ll allow a side rant from me about how the story treats sexual assault. According to the author it comes in a lot of flavors and most of them are awful.
For one: if it’s a hunky guy who loves you: Rape is great.
For two: if it’s a hunky guy but you already have a rapist errr boyfriend: You’re cheating.
For three: if you’re being obnoxiously sexually harassed by your superior….BUT YOUR PRODUCER IS AN OLDER EFFEMINATE GAY MAN: It’s hilarious and harmless and helps cement your Marty-stuness.
For four: if a woman is being groomed by a superior: It’s a bad thing that should be stopped.
3 and 4 happen within the same chapter but the author is so oblivious at the hypocrisy of the framing it’s absurd.
Story
Okay so the story is a mess. The relationship progression goes way too fast for it to make sense, and negates a lot of the drama you could have had.  It’s possible that the editors wanted sex ASAP for some kinda quota, and that’s not necessarily bad. But it really burns my biscuits when people think, “Oh that means lead with rape and that they’ll be in mutual love by chapter 2.”  
Sure most tsundere stories have a bit more lead up until the uke can confess he likes the seme back but this is not the right way to break that mold. The hairpin turn makes no sense and neuters a lot of potential conflict.
It puts the comic in a pacing hole to start and the rest of the story does little to mitigate this. I think there was an attempt to rectify this by going back to the story BEFORE they were a couple.  However that was horrible botched as well.  It brings the pacing to a screeching halt with a volume of Junta being like “OH NO HE’S HOTTTTTTTTTTT” despite the time devoted they do very little to give them an actual relationship or investment in his personality. It’s all a one-sided pining boner for hideous wiggle mouth.
The content of the writing is just embarrassing too.  I can be a more forgiving in the sex-excuse side chapters.  But like there’s a side chapter when Junta is magiked into a child and for like what? So we can coo, that the author drawing a small snowman with a poorly defined face and pretending it’s a child is super adorable?
Tumblr media
So we can excuse the shitty way Junta behaves?  Is anybody weirded out that 3 year old Junta is more thoughtful and respectful than his adult-self?  YOU CAN’T EVEN WRITE HOW CHILDREN BEHAVE YOU STUPID SIMP! UGH!!!!
But also the arc on the paparazzi just ended in a total train-wreck of awful writing no question.
Sexual politics:
They’re fucking atrocious here.
1.)    The first scene is framed as a brutal rape but 30 seconds later its fine and they’re in love.
2.)    The handling of the ~worst rapist~ trope with big buckets of victim blaming and as if Takato was ~cheating~ is horrendous.
3.)    The worst rapist is also a sex worker.  So we’re framing sex workers as bad people and sex work as a bad thing. BUT GOLLY KEEP DRAWING GRAPHIC SEX SCENCES!
4.)    The sexually predator producer of Junta being framed as harmless cause he’s effeminate is god fucking awful.  It’s also this bizarre homophobic double standard that this man (and by extension his gay brother) are a joke because they behave stereotypically gay and aren’t ashamed of being effeminate.  MEN ARE ONLY HOT IF THEY ACT LIKE PREDATORS IN A MANLY WAY, OR ARE ASHAMED OF ANY SEXUAL SUBMISSIVE OR EFFEMINATE TRAITS THEY HAVE! I LOVE WATCHING MAN ON MAN SEX BUT SO HELP ME GOD IF THEY’RE ~GAY ABOUT IT!~
5.)    They ~sorta~ take sexual harassment seriously when a female actor is being groomed. Like they joke about it but also DO SOMETHING TO STOP IT really fucking muddles what we’re supposed to think about sexual abuse at all here.
6.)    Takato’s producer sexually assaults him to ~prove a point~ that Takato is putting himself in situations where rape COULD happen.  The fuck is this horseshit! “These men could do the very bad thing of raping you. Let me demonstrate what that bad thing looks like cause I’m sure you’re UNAWARE!” THE FUCK!?  Also this sexual assault is framed more seriously than Junta’s producer because this producer is coded as MORE ATTRACTIVE and less openly QUEER! ONCE AGAIN I EXCLAIM! THE FUCK!?
7.)    Takato OPENLY describes Junta as scary and calls his acts stalking, kidnapping, bullying, blackmail, threats, and rape.  He also tries to actively avoid his boyfriend at times, yet are we not to take ANY of this seriously?  Are we not to take this seriously cause this behavior is acceptable when the one dolling it out is attractive and charming?  Are we not to take it seriously because we can’t except Takato to be honest about how he feels about any of this?  I don’t believe in given a blanket free-pass when Takato doesn’t consistently express desire in Junta’s abusive tendencies.  Like maybe you can argue some of the sex is consensual but can you argue that Takato is into the blackmail, when he never mentions he likes it? Can you argue he’s into the non-stop attention when he SOMETIMES BEGRUDINGLY admits he enjoys it?  If so does just that get a blanket pass?
JUST UGH! YOU’VE GUYS HAVE PROBABLY HEARD THIS RANT FROM ME BEFORE I FUCKING HATE TSUNDERE SEXUAL POLITICS!
 Characters
Takato
Okay so Takato. What’s this dude’s deal?  
Okay let’s start with some boring basics:  He’s a hard-working actor who strives to be professional.  He’s a perfectionist, who seems to easily and joyfully take on the role of mentor/protector. He does seem to take himself too seriously at times. He appears to subtly prod at people who have wronged him or others rather than confront them directly. He’s also shown to be a tsundere with a submissive streak.
There’s nothing bad on its face about this characterization.  However Takato is described as an intelligent professional actor, with years of experience.  Yet his handling of the paparazzi thing is pretty much he goes to shit and opens him up to more rape cause lol hot.  I could maybe understand this characterization if the paparazzi thing really hit Takato on a personal level and he made some irrational choices due to feeling as if he was being attacked or that he was going to permanently lose his job.
However he is shown as calm, as he’s making these choices and openly states that he will gladly give up a career he worked so hard for if it would save Junta’s career. Did he not, even for a second consider he could save both of them?  This is not consistent with his characterization and it exists to put Junta on a pedestal he does not deserve.
SPEAKING OF…
Junta
So…this fucking guy. Junta is a young up and coming actor with early success.  He’s shown to be an impulsive, passionate person who relies heavily on an ~angelic charm.~  He has no shame in using calculated, underhanded methods in order to achieve his goals.  He is shown as impatient, has a temper, and is openly disrespectful to his partner.
Yet the world fawns over him with praise for how attractive, charming, and ~resourceful~ he is.  He is described as having a few low wage jobs out of high school and therefore he’s an expert in EVERYTHING FOREVER!
I believe they were trying to humorously contrast Junta having a sweet, innocent angelic charm, with the reality of him being an aggressive a-hole.  However they do not frame the aggressive a-hole side of him as bad but rather as HOT.  Like I GET THAT on some level but since he’s a manipulative, abusive, rapist, it just reminds me of all the REAL LIFE INDIVIDUALS who put on a good face for the public but to their partner they’re monsters.
Art
I legit hate this fucking art. Like straight up and down, I have a hard time even reading it on a visual level.  Like the anatomy is OKAY and the backgrounds are OKAY but a lot of it is less than okay. The worst culprits are the character designs, the necks, and the expressions.  
I am so done with mediocre artists churning out, not only same-faced characters compared to their own art, but characters that are basically same-faced compared to the main-stream.  The only thing unique here is that Junta has dark hair underneath his lighter brown hair. OH GOLLY!  It’s so fucking bland and Junta’s got best seme in the Chil Chil awards and I’m so salty about that I could give the dead sea a run for its money. UGH!
The necks are super long, thin, twisty, sharp angels, and with her sad attempts at tendons it looks as if they’re constantly tense.  And in worst case scenarios they don’t look as if they’re attached to even half of the chin. Yeesh!
The expressions…fucking lord.  In the best of times, the facial spacing is just bad, with eyes and mouths off center, and ears too low.  The author has no concept of how lips/faces work so all the kisses are REAL BAD. It’s either just like…triangles smashed at each other, no lips involved, or they’re like 1 foot apart layering their tongues on each other like they’re building a fucking sandwich.
The worst of times is Takato’s sex faces.  THEY MAKE ME WANT TO VOMIT-SCREAM!
Basically he squints and his eyes get so watery it looks as if they replaced his eyeballs with just well…water.  You can’t make out pupils, irises, NOTHING!  But the mouths are the pinnacle of puke-inducing.  They’re these enormous squigglies with no rhyme or reason, just oozing saliva like a breach in a dam. At best they’re cartoonish in an unerotic way. THESE SQUIGGLES! I CAN’T STAND THEM!  YUCK!
TL;DR
Poorly drawn and written Rapist/Tsundere garbage.  While it doesn’t hit EVERY little overplayed trope, it’s still pretty cliché.  Just, it’s similar and up there with Junjou in the shitty department if you ask me.

*SLAMS HANDS ON TABLE*
5 PAGE ESSAY SUMARRY THINGG ON OUTCASTS HERE WE FUCKIN GO
So, let’s start with our main, beginner characters. We have Miggy, a dream man with a Kermit voice who is owner and manager of the Big Time Big Top, who can also have a short temper. (More on that later.) Next, there’s Isaac Bluu, an amazing triangle boyo who, in my opinion, seems pretty chill and adorable. He works at the Big Time Big Top as a fire dancer. I love him and I think his species is Isrep? Up next, we have 8-Ball, a mutated human who is haunted by the spirit of his sister whom he had to pull the plug on since she was dying of a disease called ‘Red Plague’ and 8-Ball didn’t have money. 8-Ball’s real name is Kenny! 8-Ball was a nickname given to him by his sister, Queen. He also works at the Big Time Big Top as a magician. And now, Giuseppe. Holy hell, do I ever love him. Giuseppe is an adorable, big, 4-year-old slime boy. He’s very energetic and if someone hurts him, I will s c r e e. He also works at the Big Time Big Top as a contortionist and has an adorable slime puppy names Giorgio, if I remember correctly. And lastly (for the time being,) we have Bojanny Bunny. I’m personally not a big fan of him but here’s info nonetheless. Bojanny is actually a dead rabbit possessed by some kind of demon.. rabbit.. thing?? He is a trapeze artist.
Now, moving onto the story. We start off with Miggy waking everyone up and talking about a festival, (which, to my knowledge, is like when they preform.) and we also learn that Isaac and 8-Ball have a rivalry going on. Miggy assigns everyone their tasks to prepare for the festival before leaving. 8-Ball is simply told to practice his act, so he decides to go find something entertaining to do so he can distract himself from his grief over Queen. He decides to go to the Fun-House, which doesn’t go too smoothly. He ain’t very entertained and can’t really go down the slide since his skin is apparently like ‘pencil grip.’ Isaac walks over and asks what’s going on since 8-Ball not being able to slide made a loud screech. 8-Ball gives a vague explanation as to what’s going on, resulting in Isaac saying, “You’re STILL depressed??”
yeah and that’s as far as I got from there so tkmeskip or something and we find everyone aside from Isaac and Miggy outside. Isaac opens the window of his trailer and basically yells at them to stfu. Turns out, everyone is excited over a new member possibly joining the Big Top. And here we find our new buddy, No-Soul. Except he doesn’t have that name just yet. We don’t know his name right now, if he has one. One thing we do know, is that he has a thick Russian accent. He is soon given his name by Isaac. He’s then asked what kind of acts he can do, and he says he can possess people. He demonstrates on our unwilling friend 8-Ball, to which everyone freaks out over. Especially seeing as he basically snapped 8-Ball’s back. Luckily, our mutated pal survived, but did throw up his usual pink-purple goop a lot. Later on, Miggy finds out, and this is where his temper goes flying. He drags 8-Ball to a private conversation, and proceeds to lose it. Turns out, No-Soul is from a place called Zlo, and Miggy happens to have a big grudge against anyone from Zlo. Miggy tells 8-Ball to get No-Soul to leave. 8-Ball breaks the news to No-Soul and Isaac says he’ll guide No-Soul off the property. Since everyone was able to hear Miggy’s snap, Isaac proceeds to rant about how unfair it is that No-Soul has to leave because of Miggy’s grudge. Then, the two decide that No-Soul can sneakily stay in the empty trailer, so they set that up and hang out together. They bond and we learn that Isaac is the big gay for No-Soul. And it looks like No-Soul is the big gay too.
Later on, 8-Ball finds out and teases the hell out of Isaac about it, and also ends up hanging out with him and No-Soul. No-Soul says that the two should make up and try to be friends, so the two sit down and talk about why they don’t like eachother, then come to a truce. No-Soul is very happy about this and they all continue to hang out.
No-Soul also helps 8-Ball with his grief and together they managed to let Queen’s spirit rest.
Now, moving on, we have another new face showing up, Ringo the clown! He had fallen into a coma, but woke up and returned to the circus. Turns out, he was good friends with Giuseppe, Bojanny, and Miggy! There’s a sweet little reunion but unfortunately, Bojanny kicks Isaac out of their shared trailer because Bojanny wants to be roommates with Ringo instead, and he isn’t nice about it. 8-Ball helps Isaac move in with No-Soul and later on, he has a talk with Ringo. 8-Ball mentions how Miggy snapped at him for letting No-Soul join the circus. Ringo goes on to explain that Miggy actually had a brother and the two sort of.. merged when they were born.
This brother’s name is Muggy, and he is a nightmare, I believe. Quite literally. He’s pretty creepy and he’s constantly on the surface of Miggy’s skin, which is the reason Miggy keeps his eyes closed and wears gloves. Ringo then has a conversation with Muggy, telling him that he shouldn’t go losing his temper on the other performers like he did with 8-Ball. For the next while, Ringo hangs out with Miggy all the way up to the festival.
Once the festival arrives, everyone is set to perform and Giuseppe’s favorite actor/cartoon, Looney Leo, shows up hosting for the radio. Giuseppe fanboys and befriends Leo before leaving out of being too nervous to talk to the ‘thousands of fans’ that we’re listening on the radio. He then calms down by talking to Giorgio and goes on to perform. During 8-Ball’s performance, 8-Ball slips into this heavy grief state or Queen starts messing with him or something since this is before Queen is put to rest. 8-Ball passes out for 3 days.
A little later, Bojanny and Ringo decide to do a special performance together. Bojanny rides a unicycle across a tight rope while Ringo sits on his shoulders, juggling knives. Unfortunately, the act goes horribly wrong, and Bojanny slips off the tightrope, causing both him and Ringo to fall. He tries to hold on while Isaac and 8-Ball try to get the mattress underneath the two to cushion the landing but sadly, they just barely don’t move in time, and Bojanny and Ringo plummet to their death. Miggy is taken to court, where he pleads guilty, and gives the Big Time Big Top to 8-Ball.
Now, I’m not entirely sure where this bit fits in but I think it’s somewhere around here???
Anyways, No-Soul had watched Isaac’s performance at the festival and learned that Isaac sometimes wore girly clothes. This goes against a strict rule or something from where No-Soul lived, so he decides to leave. He gets Isaac to meet him, and tells him that he doesn’t feel the same way Isaac does about him. Isaac is obviously heartbroken, and No-Soul leaves, leaving behind a black and red flower. On the brighter side, Isaac ends up with 8-Ball and I love them so much!!
Not too much later, though, Isaac learns that Giuseppe wants to run away. He’s sad because everyone’s been leaving and dying. He’s also sad because 8-Ball kept referring to him as ‘Queen’ and (I can only assume-) not acknowledging him for who he is. Isaac does his best to comfort Giuseppe. 8-Ball soon walks over and finds out that Giuseppe wants to leave and why he’s sad, then does his best to apologize and comfort Giuseppe. Giuseppe sort of falls apart (not really, don’t worry,) and says that he doesn’t like the feelings he’s having and wishes he was dead like Bojanny, Ringo and Queen. Isaac and 8-Ball continue to comfort and take care of Giuseppe until he feels better and they all have this big, adorable group hug that warms my heart.
Then, they all start making plans to work on the Big Time Big Top and put up ‘Help Wanted’ posters to get new employees. The comic ends with a strange man and a dog looking at one of the posters.
A lot of people have been theorizing that this dog is Bojanny- or Bo- since earlier in the comic, when the demon bunny thing takes a short break from possessing Bojanny, he mentions to Ringo that he was thinking about possessing a German shepherd in the area. I honestly don’t know if this has been confirmed but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was true.
And you wanna know something else that’s great about this series??
First of all, it’s made by an incredibly talented artist
but also, you can make your own OC’s and spin-off continuation of the comic!!
I hope you enjoyed this nearly 5 page essay thing!!
(Its 4.6 pages so I guess if you round up, it’s 5)
ALSO NO, I AM NOT READING THIS OVER BECAUSE IM LAZY

hey, i've got a joke! slim walks into a bar. portugal walks under it.
There was always something disgustingly wonderful about cracking open his sockets, confused and in pain, a moment of agonizing bliss before he remembered just who he had pissed off the night before, who he’d gotten to beat the everloving shit out of him. It was a game, a fun one at that, poking and prodding, something exhilarating in the way that he would feel a spike of rage, of fury, just before the pain began and everything hazed out between blows and attacks.
When P opened his sockets that morning, feeling the dried mess of what he knew was blood causing him to stick to the sheets- honestly, if they weren’t already browned and stiff in so many places then he may have actually been the slightest bit annoyed at the fact- the pain was welcome, and he allowed himself to simply sit and relish what he fucking deserved, not bothering to look any farther than the fact that it hurt. The memories would come back in time; they’d be hazed and confused but he always, always would remember just what words he said, what buttons he pushed, blackout drunk or not.
Every time it happened, he could feel himself slip away just a little farther, and since no one cared enough to bother to pull him back he only had a few more beatings to take until they had to wipe dust off of sheets that were so stained with blood that they were stiff enough to be cardboard. He sighed, hard, ribs aching  at the motion (bruised, probably, maybe even broken, and wouldn’t that be a damn treat?) as he pushed himself up, cradling his skull in his hand.
“Mornin’, Sunshine!”
P jumped with a curse, falling out of bed and landing in such a way that his vision went black around the edges, pain shooting up his spine. His head snapped around as he checked the room, eyes narrowing with a snarl as his gaze landed on Slim, the other perched happily on a chair with a grin. Before he could say anything, the other was talking.
“Gotta say, I really thought you were done for last night. You got the shit beat out of you!” He seemed almost happy about it, maybe even impressed.
Portugal got up with a groan, struggling to stay standing, sending the other a glare. “Get th’ fuck out.”
Slim shifted in the chair, turning and hooking his knees over the top before letting his head hang back off the bottom. “I dunno what you said to the edgelord to get him to beat you like that, but holy shit it must’ve been bad.”
God, he had no idea what the fuck this guy’s problem was. “If yer smart, you’ll get th’ hell out, boyo.”
“Or what?” Slim grinned, snickering. “You’ll limp over here and insult me to death? Oh, I’m so scared.”
P watched as Slim turned back upright, balancing his elbows on his knees as he cradled his head in his hands, blinking innocently. “The hell do ya want?”
Slim shrugged, grinning, and P watched him for a few more moments before he turned with a growl, limping over to his closet and grabbing the first outfit he saw, making his way out of the room. There was a creak from the chair, and he glanced over his shoulder to see Slim following him, happily looking at his surroundings with his hands in his pockets. He slammed the bathroom door in the other’s face, locking it as he turned to the mirror, barely glancing at his reflection- the glimpse of green was enough to make him look away as quickly as he could- before starting to pull on fresh clothes.
No noise came from the other side of the door, but he wasn’t an idiot, and he knew for a fact that the drugged-up asshole was still standing on the other side. He kicked the stained clothes against the tub, vowing to pick them up later, before he yanked the door open. Sure enough, Slim was leaning against a wall, scrolling through his phone, entirely unconcerned. The other glanced up as he glared, and Slim raised a brow at his expression. “What?”
P sneered. “Sorry to tell ya, but I don’ got any drugs. If ya wanna be a fucking disappointment, then go do it somewhere else.”
Slim laughed. “And miss out on these thrilling conversations? I would never.”
He shoved past him, hand coming up to cradle his ribcage as he made his way into the kitchen. He turned just before Slim followed after him, glaring, and something must have finally gotten through that thick skull of his because he stopped just outside, one leg lifted and eyes wide in shock, before he shrugged, dropping his leg and standing just outside the door frame.
P filled the kettle with water, slamming it down on the stove and swirling around on his heel, hissing. “What.”
Slim shrugged, face expressionless, and for a moment P was almost impressed that he could do something other than smile like an idiot. “You’re a lot more trouble than you’re worth, shorty. Say that you were to take it too far with the wrong person.” Slim lifted up both hands, palms out, grinning. “Not that I give two shits, mind you, but if they did something that they regret then the consequences would be pretty shitty.”
“So what?” P sneered, aware of how tense the atmosphere was becoming. “Please tell me ya aren’t as stupid as ya look ta think that a slap on the wrist’ll make me stop.”
Slim grinned, leaning against the frame. “I came to kill you, actually.”
P took a step back, running into the counter, watching the other grin.
He laughed, face turning to the side before he looked at him from the corner of his sockets. “Calm down, bud. You see, I was watching you sleep- creepy, I know, but whatever- and I got to thinking: ‘Hey, he really likes to piss people off, doesn’t he? I wonder why that is?’”
Slim turned, facing him fully. “Because it’s not like you really fight back to win. So what is it, kid?” He stepped forward, expression quizzically calm, the side of his mouth lifted slightly in a smirk. “Are you kinky, or do you just hate yourself that much?”
P growled, reaching over and grabbing a knife before taking a step forward, anger making him imagine someone slightly shorter, attacking and knowing, knowing that with his injuries it would only take a few well placed hits, and it’s not like Slim didn’t know exactly how to bring someone down. But the other just caught his wrist, grabbing his other arm and lifting him in the air. P shot out his leg, kicking him in the side, but the pain that burned up his bones had to be worse than whatever injury it inflicted on Slim and so he just hung, waiting for the pain to start. Which is why the laugh was so shocking.
He kicked out again, more pain making his body throb. “So what now? Yer gonna try ta make up fer all the times ya just let yer friends suffer while you were off somewhere, so high that ya couldn’t even walk?” Another kick. Slim was frowning. “Ya think that somehow, ya can be the good guy, get rid of past mistakes, like this’ll somehow get them to see ya as anything other than a fucking failure who can’t stay sober fer longer than ten minutes?”
“Jesus.” Slim set him down, wrenching the knife from his hand before raising a brow. “So I guess kinky’s not the answer.”
P yanked himself away, going over to the table, picking up a chair before launching it at the other. Slim yelped when it hit him, the chair breaking into splintered pieces and making him fall back on his ass. “Why won’t ya jus’ leave!?”
“Cause I’m an asshole.” Slim stood up with a groan, brushing himself off. And then he gave P a pointed look. “Cause part of me almost feels sorry for you.”
P glared at him, stalking over to the stove and grabbing the kettle, pouring the water into the cup and dropping a tea bag into it carelessly. He sneered. “Why? ‘Cause I remind ya of yerself?”
“Nope!” Slim said. “Because you remind me of m-” he paused, sockets narrowing, before he clicked his tongue. “Huh. Holy shit.”
“Fuck off.”
Slim grinned at him before he looked down, nudging a piece of the chair with his sneakers. “Heh. Alrighty.” He winked. “I’ll see you around then, ey greenie?”
P growled, turning away. He heard footsteps as the other made his way out, though they stopped just after the creaky board that P knew was just in front of the door. “By the way,” Slim called, boisterous and obnoxious, “there ain’t nothin’ wrong with the color of your magic.”
And then the door clicked shut, washing him in peaceful and lonely silence.
A wonderful fic by the magnificent ollie for you all to enjoy ^^

Hello! Welcome to my first Children Rekindled review? I don't know what you would call this exactly because it's just me screaming. I'm considering on doing this for every chapter that comes out, but due to how long the chapters are, it might take two or more posts to get to the end of this chapter. If you haven't read the comic, go read it here > http://children-rekindled.top/?c=1&p=1 This comic is a reboot of the original so I might mention that one a bit, but I promise there won't be bad spoilers. Let's get started! 
Before I get into this, lemme just say that Bon does such a good job with the art?? Like the entire group working on this did so well!! I was really impressed about how it turned out caUSE HOLY HECK
Tumblr media
oH IT THEM I love the entire bit of scenery in this panel? The colors work really well together and after a while of not seeing these kiddos actually ok, it's nice to see them all just chilling at Freddy's..alone? Charlie is an epic gaymer and no one can tell me otherwise. SHE'S STILL THE SMALLEST AND THAT MAKES ME SOB
Tumblr media
IT'S MY FAVORITE BOYYYY Their dynamic already shown makes me scream?? I love them both sO MUCH!! Imagine being such an epic gaymer that you sweat after playing some game my younger self could relate- 
Tumblr media
IM STILL SOBBING OVER THESE REDESIGNS?? Michael actually being interested in the animatronics makes this even better too! It makes more sense as well cause since they are older, why else would they be there? Before, they were just kids who thought the animatronics were real. Now Michael just brings them along cause he loves this sort of stuff!
Tumblr media
Daniel ily so much u silly babey Francis is such a meanie, but he's so loveable! I just,,the most recent chapter made me wanna die for him.
Tumblr media
This is why a lot of my incorrect quotes with Daniel has jokes?? I love the thought of him just being this boyo that tries his best to make others laugh and when it works, he's so proud of himself!! Ship content right there- Also Michael rambling about animatronics is the cutest thing! He's so happy with this and it just makes me uwu sm,,hE ALSO DOES BASKETBALL?? AND SO DOES DANIEL AND FRANCIS?? 
Tumblr media
wAIT NO IM NOT READY
Tumblr media
GO AWAYYYY I love this panel though?? Just the group and this creepy heck?? The colors make the entire thing look so great, bUT I HATE WHAT THIS MEANSSS
Tumblr media
Have you guys never learned?? Have your parents never taught you not to follow strange bunny men? smh such bad parents At least Francis is being the reasonable person here, but it's sad really. Even being the reasonable person, he can't stop anything.
Tumblr media
The panel just with the entire group makes me so happy aa I love them??
Tumblr media
"My mouth's a tomb!" hAHA GET IT CAUSE HE HECKIEING DI- 💥 🔫
Tumblr media
DON'T TOUCH MY BABEY BOY I knew this was gonna happen eventually, but honestly I get how Daniel just wanted to leave- that heck locking the door just made the entire thing feel off.
Tumblr media
guys I'm going on a trip to save Daniel. anyone who wants to join me can just jump into the truck of the car because I'm going right now bye- MICHAEL'S FACE JUST HURTS SO MUCH When that heck pulled out a knife, they all knew what was going on and honestly that hurt me the most?? Like Michael is probably in such conflicting pain at the moment because he was the one that dragged them along into this.
Tumblr media
Alternative AU where Daniel actually closes his eyes and William is like 'wait shit- I can't do anything now' Poor boyo seems to terrified to even do so- I mean this heck has a knife?? Who would close their eyes when someone is around with a knife???
Tumblr media
NOOOO I like how bon did this panel, bUT NO NO I HATE THIS PLS STOP HURTING MY BOY I- iIt all goes downhill from here guys
Tumblr media
Going through this entire page is painful First we have the reaction of the group which just hits hard!! How Michael turns away once Daniel gets stabbed already hurts enough. He can't escape the loud screaming of pain coming from his dying friend. Charlie also covers her eyes, but it's the same for that too. Francis being there just shocked about what is going on in front of him hITS HARD. The two are watching, completely powerless. They have to see their friend just heckieing die and couldn't do a thing. It must hurt Bianca a lot especially considering that the two seem to be rather close friends?? Seeing Daniel just slowly get weaker as his screaming of pain stops to show that he's finally dead really hurts? It already made the entire thing painful in the original, but in this it's just worse because once he stops, you really know he's gone. I wonder how the others feel when hearing that. The sinking feeling of denial and guilt in their stomach ESPECIALLY MICHAEL would just hurt.
Tumblr media
please don't just yeet the boyo onto the floor- Bianca is a mess and this heck is like 'wow look at that!! I just killed your friend! Moving on-'
Tumblr media
We all just want to hug Bianca here. If you don't then you're wrong. She looks like she’s just in so much denial. The Afterwound AU and Soul-Linked AU hurt due to this and I want that show. Both have it so they had seen each other die, but suddenly they are all ok? At least in the Soul-Linked AU they are for a bit- aus are so much fun, but let's get back to this.
Tumblr media
There goes another one! what a shocking surprise! In the original (if you didn't read it), she just got her throat slit due to a guitar string, but now she got heckieing electrocuted. I wonder which is worse?? At least now she doesn't have a talking problem, but always shaking is horrible. I need to ask Bon more about how she feels, but for now I'm just gonna suffer
Tumblr media
yet again, the reaction between these three makes me sob aLSO FRANCIS WHAT ARE U DOING
Tumblr media
Francis is the logical one another, but going up against a weird bunny man that's taller than you and has a knife is awful already. Is he able to survive and get out of there alive with the rest? Haha what a stupid question-
Tumblr media
More to unpack here! To begin, Francis trembling in the first panel just shows that even the bravest boyo around tHAT IS TRYING TO DEFEND HIS FRIENDS, is realizing that he can't even do that. How could he face someone who just killed two of his friends? Someone who was clever enough to lead them to this room where they are trapped and unable to run? Then when he got stabbed, for one, that must hurt like hell! And also he wasn't even able to do much to save them apart from telling them to run! He didn't even get a hit in before William was just like "time to murder u" "I hope you'll see your friends again soon, dear." HECK U WILLIAM THEY NEVER DESERVED ANY OF THIS PLS-
Tumblr media
Third one down! Michael looks so terrified and honestly I feel the same way- I will make a part 2 eventually, but for now I will summarize how this are so far. aaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA what will happen to Michael and Charlie? find out next time on 'im gonna cry and sob for the next 24 hours and more oh god why did I do this'
