that’s not a pure word

header by @/earlgreymon

a super late gift for @sincerelytan​!!!

this is so exciting for me because this has been in the works for a long time but i FINALLY got around to finishing it even though it’s a little short. i feel it’s because the ending never really got to me? so i re-did it a few times and i finally found the right groove. i hope you like it!!

that’s not a pure word | main characters ; yamato ishida, mimi tachikawa, satoshi ishida (oc) | universe ; au / no digimon partners | ships ; yamato x mimi | genre ; humor, family | word count ; 1,077 | rating ; g | edited ; three times - forgive me for any mistakes

Yamato and Mimi had just finished preparing Satoshi’s birthday dinner. He cooked the food and she baked the cake. It was just a simple party, just the three of them for now. Or four counting the baby inside Mimi. Satoshi liked to count them in already.

“Happy birthday, Satoshi-kun,” Mimi greeted as she brought out the cake. There were five small blue candlesticks on it and as soon as she placed it on the table, her son blew them all out with a single whoosh. “You haven’t even made your wish!” she gasped.

“I’ve already made my wish,” Satoshi said with a huge grin. “But I’m not going to tell you,” he added in a sing-song voice.

“You’re keeping secrets from us now?” Yamato asked, his voice steady, but he tried his best to hide the tiny smile he had on his face.

Satoshi giggled. “Only my wishes.”

“How can we make your wish happen if we don’t know about it,” Mimi asked teasingly.

“Tenma-onii-chan said that you should never tell your birthday wishes. I should only tell Tenma-oii-chan and Akihito-onii-chan.” Satoshi crossed his arms and nodded.

Yamato sighed. “Such a Takeru thing to do.”

Mimi laughed. “Next thing you know, Michiru-chan is acting like Hikari.”

“Mama,” Satoshi called, “do you think the baby will be a girl?”

Mimi tilted her head a little. “We haven’t asked the doctor,” she admitted. “We kind of want it to be a surprise.”

“Why? How will you pick out his or her name?”

“We have names ready,” Yamato answered. “But we want this to be a surprise this time.”

“But why?”

Yamato and Mimi looked at each other. “No reason, really,” Yamato said. “That’s just the way we want it to be.”

Satoshi frowned. “I wished for a baby sister.”

Mimi smiled. “Let’s hope the baby is a baby sister then.”

“But what if the baby is a boy?”

Yamato crouched to his level. “Will you not love him?”

Satoshi shook his head. “I will, but I want a baby sister like Chiru-chiru-chan.”

“Girl or boy, you’ll be the best big brother ever.” Yamato patted his head and grinned. “You take after me after all!”

Days later, Mimi and Satoshi were out shopping. They were going on a short holiday during the summer and Yamato wanted them to buy clothes while the season was still far. Mimi laughed and said that they did not have to worry. Yamato argued about the crowd.

As Mimi looked around, Satoshi was happily trotting beside her. She had bought him a new, small basketball set. While the headboard and net were in the cart, he was holding the ball. He was dribbling carefully but at some point, the ball rolled a little further. Luckily, there were not many people and he knew he could follow and get it without getting separated from his mother.

“Shit.” He quickened his pace and caught the ball before returning to the side of his mother. “I got it back.”

“What did you just say?” Mimi asked. Satoshi could not tell what was wrong with what he said.

“I got it back,” he repeated.

“No the–no, never mind. Just don’t say that again.” Mimi shook her head.

“I got it back?” he asked once more.

Mimi stopped in her tracks and bent down. “Shit. Don’t say that word ever again.”

“But Papa says it all the time when something falls,” he defended.

Mimi sighed. “He’s sleeping on the couch tonight,” she murmured.

“Why?”

His mother pursed her lips. “I’m going to talk to Papa, okay? But whatever happens. You do not say that word again, okay? Ever. You got that?”

Satoshi nodded. “Okay.”

Later that day, Satoshi was playing with the basketball set in his room when he heard his mother raise her voice. He could not make out what she was saying but he knew she was mad at his father. He wondered why that single word broke into an argument.

Night came and he was thirsty. He got up from bed and headed for the kitchen to grab a glass of water. As he entered the kitchen, he saw his father lying on the couch, a blanket covering his body. He walked over to the sleeping man and nudged him awake.

“Papa.”

Yamato opened his eyes and turned to look at him. “Why are you still up?”

“I was thirsty,” he said. “Why are you sleeping on the couch?”

Yamato grinned. “I made Mama angry.”

“Is it because of that word I said?”

“The one you’re not allowed to say?”

He nodded.

“Maybe.” Yamato twisted his body. “Do you want to sleep beside me tonight?”

Satoshi smiled. Yamato threw the covers up and the young boy climbed up. Once settled, Yamato fixed the blanket and hugged his son tight.

“Goodnight, Papa.”

“Goodnight, Satoshi-kun.”

Months later, Yamato and Satoshi entered the room. Satoshi begged his father to tell him if the newborn was a baby sister or brother. Although he really wanted a baby sister, he would still love his baby brother with all his heart and more. “Girl or boy?” he asked again.

Yamato shook his head. “I’m not going to tell you.”

“Satoshi-kun, come here, meet your baby sibling!” Mimi had a huge grin on her face, the baby in her arms.

“What’s a sibling?” he asked, looking up at his father.

“A brother or a sister, a general term,” Yamato replied.

Satoshi did not know what “general term” meant but he understood through the first part that a sibling is either a brother or sister or both. “That’s smart,” he said.

Yamato hauled Satoshi up to the bed and the brunette little boy excitedly crawled up to his mother and looked at the baby. The baby was sleeping and had blonde hair like his dad. He tilted his head from side to side, not sure if the baby was a brother or sister. He looked up at his smiling mother and asked, “I don’t know.”

“What did you want to name your baby sister?” she asked.

“Kiyo,” he said right away. “It means purity, doesn’t it? Akihito-onii-chan told me what purity means.”

“I hope it isn’t the other meaning,” Yamato muttered under his breath. But Satoshi did not understand what he meant.

“Kiyo,” Mimi said. “What do you think, Yamato?”

“I think it’s perfect,” he replied, patting his son’s head. “Better than any name we thought of.”

Mimi brought her arm forward. “Satoshi-kun, meet Kiyo.”

If He Was Your Fan (A Henry Cavill Fanfic), Chapter 74: Unwrapping (Henry POV)

Not two weeks after I was gone, she disappeared from everyone. I decided to text her at night and she seemed…elusive. Her detailed answers became nothing but emojis though they always had a smile or heart in them. I deduced that she might want to meet face to face to really talk about anything of note. I make arrangements for pickup for escort the London Grand Dame Holiday Party.

I rent a car and driver to pick up her up. Bentleys are all about comfort.

She comes out in an outfit that looks very formal, almost regal. Her hair is up, she has an overlay that gives her quite the sparkle, almost wintry. But the look in her eyes is different.

“Henry.”

I give a half bow and help her into the car, waving off the driver. What was that? What is going on?

Minutes into our trip, I see a car, a dark one. “Darling?”

“Hmm?”

“We’re being followed,” I exhale. “Probably paparazzi—” I signal our driver to tell him to lose them.

“No, relax, Henry,” she touches my hand. “They’re with me.”

“With you?”

Her eyes lower. “I wasn’t sure you’d come.”

I turn to her. “I wouldn’t do that to you.”

“I’m sorry, Henry.” She looks out of the window.

“Darling.” I needed to know.

She turns her head promptly, her expression attentive. “Yes?”

I close the privacy door between us and the driver. “What’s going on?”

“Hen—”

“Something has changed, I know you well enough to know so don’t deny it.”

She exhales a small chuckle and covers my hand. “I love you.”

Why that made me uncomfortable, I didn’t know. “I love you.”

She leans on me and I can feel her distraction, her concern. I put an arm around her, and realize this is a matter of time now, whatever it is.

I smile when I see the Floating Star, better known at the Sunborn Hotel tonight. It is a glamourous ship, with wonderful views of the river and accommodations.

I help her out of the car and I watch the driver of the other look on from a distance. He looks as if he is checking surroundings, and watching us. I look down at her and she is looking straight ahead, chin tilted up. “Darling—”

“Hold my hand, Henry,” she whispers at the bottom of the elaborate gangplank. She looks up at me. “Don’t let go?”

“Alright,” I say softly. “I won’t leave you.”

The dining hall is set up with gold décor, making it look posh and like a true holiday party. People were milling about, talking amongst themselves. There are a few screens set up, showing people having their family trees revealed. A few people did double-takes when we came in, and I put on my best stare. What the hell—

Chiru and Sophia come to her and literally form a protective barrier between her and the others. They take turns hugging her.

“Thank you,” she whispers, her eyes shining. “Thank you for coming—”

“I wouldn’t miss this for the world!” Chiru said.

“We’re here for you—” Sophie does a double-take at me. “You haven’t told him?!”

“Wasn’t time.”

Chiru and Sophia gasp and look at each other. “Come on, let’s go--”

Suddenly there is a tinkling of glasses and clicking of lights. Supper was about to begin. It is very good food, as always, but I wanted to get a moment alone with her. After dessert, I decided I would whisk her away outside.

Perline Richardson rises and clinks her glass and everyone pays attention.

But not soon enough. The lights went low, and I pulled her out.

“It’s too late,” she whispers. “Look.”

My attention turns to the largest screen, and I see her and Henry Louis Gates sitting together.

“I…” he nods. “have some earth-shattering news for you.”

“Oh, God, really?” she is almost laughing. “Descendant of slaves—”

“Once you got here,” he repeats. “once you got here.”

She looks up at Gates.

“In 1832, there was a territory called Eden,” Gates began. “and the heir to the Earl of Eden was named Aldric-Aldric of Eden, was born. He was the only son and heir of Godric Eden. He fell in love with a slave woman named Lily in 1850. Lily was born in the garden two years after Aldric, which belonged to Godric’s wife Anne. Godric found out about the relationship between Aldric and Lily when Aldric refused to marry a highborn white woman. In the night, Anne took Lily and sold her to a slave trader heading for the Americas.”

The room was completely quiet. A pin could be dropped.

“Okay,” was all she said.

“Lily cursed the Eden family, swearing pain and misery upon every descendent until things were set right,” Gates went on. “Aldric fell ill, and told his parents on his death bed that Lily was with child when she was sold. He cast the same curse on his family in his illness and heartbreak, and with no will to live, died in his sleep. They had sent the only heir into slavery. Godric had a younger brother Gregory, who inherited the land, but he was not a good leader, and after Godric’s death, much of Eden was squandered and lost to other territories. The only thing that saved what is left of it today was that Aldric set aside money for his heir, in hopes he—or she—would come back someday. It is now called Edenvale, Gregory’s way of trying to save the reputation and memory of the happier days of the land.”

“That’s a long time.”

“Yes, today, quite a fortune, with an older company overseeing the money and reporting to the courts of its growth.”

“That sounds pretty farfetched,” she says.

“It is, but true,” he chuckles. “When Lily got to the Americas, she was showing, so she was seen as a breeder and an enhanced deal. She died in childbirth, but her son was named Al upon her request. He grew up and fought in the American Civil War as a teen, and when it was over, ran west to find a life with Native Americans in the northwest United States. He fathered one child with his Native American wife, Koko, and named her Magdeline…”

Wait wasn’t her great grandmother’s name…? I look at her profile and she isn’t looking at me. Chiru is sitting on the other side and takes her hand.

“This isn’t confirmed or denied, but rumor is that Al tried to return to Edenvale, but was never heard from again. Magdeline married and had two daughters, one of which died in a drowning accident. The surviving daughter was named…”

The picture of her mother flashed on the wall, and anyone who had seen her now knew who she was, the resemblance was so strong.

I am staring at her. I am no longer staring at the screen. I’d heard this story before, and rumor has it that this heir has at least a fifty million waiting for claim.

“And now I would like to introduce Lady Edenvale.”

Mega fans are eagerly waiting for 'Bass Party' song from Megastar Chiranjeevi's latest film 'Waltheru Veeraiya'. The glimpses that have already been released are impressive and Chiru is seen in a vintage look. But Megastar showed the lyrical video of this song to his brother Power Star Pawan Kalyan before the fans.

Bobby (K.S. Ravindra) is directing the film 'Waltheru Veeraiya' produced by Mythri Movie Makers. Maithri shared photos on social media saying that Pawan Kalyan is enjoying the 'Boss Party' song with his elder brother. While Pawan is playing the song, Chiru is looking at his younger brother very happily. 

 Along with Chiru and Pawan, Bobby and director Krish are also present in those photos. It is known that Krish is currently doing 'Hari Hara Veeramallu' with Pawan. For more information visit Teluguone.com official website

[ultraericthered]

So I just recently learned of the true Rokkenjima Tragedy, a tragedy that not only explains why Umineko Chiru failed to quite live up to Higurashi Kai as the latter volume of a set (it peaks in it’s first arc, EP5, and then has a lot of unworked issues plaguing the remaining three) and why the entire When They Cry franchise just hasn’t felt quite the same after Umineko ended, almost as though Ryukishi07 reached his limit and hit creative burnout upon finally finishing it. 

I’m referring to the loss of Ryukishi07’s dearest friend, BT, in 2009. 

As the blog post states, BT was “a person who was deeply involved in the creation of the WTC titles”, as not only was he like a second brother to Ryukishi07 but he was the guy he always had in mind first and foremost when writing his work, as he anticipated him reading it and giving him reactions, thoughts, and even suggestions. TV Tropes puts it that BT was his go-to guy for advice on the plot; he was like an unofficial editor. So without him to bounce off of, some of Ryukishi’s’ less than good ideas didn’t get vetted before going into his finalized works, both in Umineko and beyond (looking at you now, SotsuGou). 

Not only that, but as classified under Creator Breakdown, following BT’s death, Umineko took on a notably different tone and direction from EP6 onwards. EP5 turned out so great because it’s the only one that was fully planned out and largely finished in terms of the writing process by the time of BT’s sudden death (he died in July of 2009 - EP5 then came out the next month). But with the remaining three arcs, how they got effected becomes very easy to spot once you’re aware of BT’s death. Both EP6 and EP7 center heavily around dealing with the fallout of a loved one passing away (Beatrice in both cases). BATTLER attempting to ressurect Beato only to create Chick Beato instead and feeling anguish over their relationship not being the same was likely inspired by Ryukishi missing BT and finding that sharing his stories with other non-BT colleagues wasn’t the same as what he’d lost. Ikuko/Featherine getting introduced most likely ahead of schedule (thus Ange’s entire presence in an arc where she doesn’t really do much) and dialing up the meta commentary on storytelling techniques, tropes, characters, creating mysteries and such, and everything to do with the Love Trials from those goddamn twins were probably not pre-planned either. A lot of the poor writing choices in EP7 like the presentation of Kinzo’s backstory, the gross amount of leniency bestowed upon Kinzo in general, Maria’s out-of-character moment, and that whole “Clair” nonsense most likely could’ve been avoided had BT still been around. EP7 makes a point of how the person to uncover the whole truth of everything, hear Yasu's story as it is told, and understand their true character (Willard Wright) is not the person Yasu had hoped would be the one to do so (Battler), a possible reference to how BT died before Ryukishi could ever reveal to him in full the truth of Yasu and of the story as he'd planned out. How oppressively bleak EP7 got in general is owed to Ryukishi’s grief-stricken state of mind following BT’s death. I already did a post detailing improvements that the manga adaptation of EP8 had to make to the story because Ryukishi missed the mark the initial go round, and even in the final Tea Party, Featherine briefly mentions a piece of advice given by her "old friend who is now gone".

In the end I think that Umineko, even with the sins of its latter 3 arcs, made it through this tragedy still relatively unscathed, cohesive, and rewarding as a whole, enough to be considered a Mangum Opus right alongside Higurashi. Ryukishi and 07th Expansion have gone on to create other compelling and enjoyable stories since then. But in terms of WTC which started it all, the old passion, dedication, and...well, magic, just hasn’t been there. Sadly, that blog post had it right:

I’m worried that he will lose his will to keep writing. Ryukishi07 knows well that stop writing will not make BT happy so he says that he will keep going. I don’t know if it’ll ever be the same for him. His best friend was the reason why he started making these games now that he’s gone Ryukishi07’s writing won’t be the same. This loss will without a doubt have a more powerful effect in his work.

Bernkastel’s Umineko Origins

What is this guide?

<< Previous (Bernkastel)

(Profile continued) “In theory, she holds the strongest power of any witch, but in practice, that is no more realistic than saying a piece of paper can reach the moon if you fold it a hundred times. And fold it a hundred times she did.”

Since “Gou is a Bernkastel origin story” is quite a widespread theory, I figured it might be useful to compile every single piece of information Umineko gives about Bernkastel’s past in one place.

This is meant as more of a comprehensive reference post, so if you’re not interested in that theory, feel free to skip this section! 

Next (Lambdadelta) >>

[Also, spoiler warning for part of one character’s plotline from Umineko Episode 4/Alliance in here.]

From Umineko Episode 2/Turn:

Bern was probably once (a) Rika. Hard to get more definitive than using Rika’s catch phrase in the ??? Tea Party.

Bernkastel: “...Umm, in times like this, what did I used to say again? ……...Umm, uh, ……...Fi-Fight o~n. Mii, nipah~☆ ...It's so embarrassing, doing this. I've done this much for you, so quickly stand back up.”

Bern is a witch born from being trapped in a game against Lambda.

Bernkastel: “You are now just like I was in the past, when I was imprisoned inside Lambda's world. Shut inside a labyrinth of cruel fate, tormented by a witch, in a manner of speaking. I am a witch who was born from there. So maybe I'm like an older sister to you. So I decided that I'd lend you my power.”

The last time Bern and Lambda played against each other, Bern won by using pieces that started in their most powerful state.

Lambdadelta: “…...W-well, last time, I felt just a little pity and said that she could start her pieces anywhere she wants, and then that idiot Bern totally didn’t pick up on compassion and started with aaall of her pawns promoted on the eighth rank!!”

(Source: https://lparchive.org/Umineko-no-Naku-Koro-ni/Update%2062/)

From Umineko Episode 4/Alliance:

According to Lambda, Bern has experienced being denied a happy ending herself due to being a witch’s piece, rather than the one who actually experienced the ending she found.

Lambdadelta: “You aren't Ushiromiya Ange. You're a witch's piece with that name. Strictly speaking, the name ANGE Beatrice belongs to a completely different person. Know what that means?"

Ange: “I’m... starting to think I don’t…… ...Huh? Huh? Who... am I? Huh?”

Lambdadelta: “...And thaaat's why I think Bern's cruel. No, I think she's a meanie. Especially since it's not like she hasn't gone through the same thing herself."

Ange: "...Am I... being tricked... somehow...?"

Lambdadelta: "Yeah, but please don't blame Bern, okay? After all, depending on how you look at it, that kid isn't lying. If Beato is defeated, your family will be returned. Returned to Ushiromiya Ange. But she probably didn't say that this Ushiromiya Ange would be you, right...?"

(Source: https://lparchive.org/Umineko-no-Naku-Koro-ni/Update%20116/)

From Umineko Episode 6/Dawn:

Bern was once a human piece, but after being abandoned by an unnamed Game Master (implied in the manga to be Hanyuu), she became a witch by solving a logic error in place of that Game Master.

Erika: "...My master was also... a witch's piece?"

Lambdadelta: "Yes. That kid's master... was another bad one. Though she created the game herself, partway through, she lost sight of what her goal was. She ended up creating something like a broken game of backgammon, where the start and goal were connected like a donut."

Erika: "What do you mean, she lost her goal...?"

Lambdadelta: “I'm talking about a logic error. In her backgammon game, she was unable to draw up a line of logic describing how to reach the goal she desired. So, the game remained broken, with no goal at all."

“...In that case, she should have quieted down and thought of an answer herself. Instead, she despicably left even the thinking entirely to her piece, Bern.”

[insert long metaphor involving cats, monkeys, and typewriters]

Lambdadelta: “If she wasn't a witch... no, if she hadn't been able to become a witch, she would probably still be a black cat strapped to that typewriter for eternity. That child was blessed by a miracle, succeeded in typing out a 'miracle', became a witch, and returned from that hell alive.”

“That hell was so long and harsh... that her mind was completely broken. That's why she became such a mean and heartless witch.”

(Source: https://lparchive.org/Umineko-no-Naku-Koro-ni-Chiru/Update%2065/)

At some point prior to Umineko, Bern was Featherine’s longest-serving miko, trained by her to tear out the “guts” of stories.

Featherine: "...A cat who has learned to eat meat and choose its own path. It has been a long time..."

Bernkastel: "It's a path I'd never have to have noticed if you hadn't told me. You're the monster who taught me the taste of flesh. So, you've come back to life. Featherine Auaurora..."

Featherine: "...Augustus Aurora... You never learn no matter how often I tell you that…”

“...Very well. Even that brings back fond memories... I have heard the rumors... It seems you have taken the name Bernkastel, Witch of Miracles, and have been playing a far from praiseworthy Fragment game..."

Bernkastel: "I'm just imitating you. Though I could hardly match up to your level. If the rumors you've heard about me are bad, that applies a hundredfold to you."

Bernkastel sat unreservedly in an antique chair, as though she was already familiar with the place.

Featherine: "...What are you afraid of? I am merely celebrating my reunion with my longest-serving miko so far... Did you really find my messenger cat so displeasing?"

(Source: https://lparchive.org/Umineko-no-Naku-Koro-ni-Chiru/Update%2075/)

From Umineko Episode 8/Twilight:

An alternate explanation for Bern’s origins: she was Featherine’s pet cat who revived her master.

“Featherine Augustus Aurora. …...The legendary Great Witch. It is said that she surpassed the level of witches, becoming a Creator, and that, upon reaching this forbidden plane, she was cursed with a deadly ailment. However, in life, she once turned her pet cat into a witch. They say that this second witch wanders the sea of Fragments endlessly, searching for any Fragment that can revive her master from the pits of death called boredom, if even for a moment. And so, the cat revived her master. Revived the sacred witch who had reached heights none should reach…”

(Source: https://lparchive.org/Umineko-no-Naku-Koro-ni-Chiru/Update%20156/)

There’s also this little tidbit from Last Note of the Golden Witch, where Bern outright says she was once in “Higurashi.” That being said, in context she’s referring to the “All Cast Review Sessions” from the Higurashi VN, so… unless you also consider those to be canon, I wouldn’t advise thinking too hard about this. (See the section on Lambdadelta for another good example of this kind of reference.)

.

...And that’s it. So, the question is, what was the game that Bern was trapped in?

It’s possible (and before Gou, not uncommon) to interpret all of these scattered bits of information as references to the original Higurashi. In that configuration, perhaps Higurashi was a game where Featherine/Hanyuu was a Game Master playing against Lambda, with Lambda using Takano as her piece. Rika/Bern won that game in Hanyuu’s place by manifesting a miracle, defeating Lambda and ascending as a witch after Saikoroshi (which then denied her Rika’s happy ending).

But now with Gou in the mix, it looks like the fandom’s long-held assumptions may be due for some reexamination...

If He Was Your Fan (A Henry Cavill Fanfic), Chapter 71, Version 2: Found Wanting, Part 2

Shopping becomes a blur, now. Even though you are all shopping for dresses and such, your friends are giving you special attention. You know you didn’t commit a fashion faux pas; you just did what you wanted and said to hell with the fads and did your own thing. There is no law against it, but your heart winced at some of the reactions. Henry is a millionaire actor, but he is also descendant of nobility, therefore is seen as needing to hold a standard. Between his looks and status that was tough. You knew that, but you didn’t know that till now.

But you made it. And not a moment too soon. Sophia made arrangements for tea at Hyde Park’s , her treat, which is nice.

You are all sitting and enjoying yourselves.

“Do you think I did okay on the dresses this time?” you ask.

“You did fine on the dress you picked for the premiere!” Stella said, and rolls her eyes. “Don’t worry about the public. You’ll never please them all, anyway.”

“I know that’s right,” Chiru chimes in. “Fuck ‘em, they just want to be in your place, anyway.”

Suddenly, you hear a chuckle…a familiar one. You frown. That can’t be…you turn around and rise from your seat to confirm your suspicions. You go into the bigger room and find Henry and some woman at a table for two talking. He does a double take and notices you.

“Henry!” you say brightly. You bend down to kiss him and laugh softly, “I didn’t know you’d be here today!”

“Hello, darling,” he says quickly. “I thought you were at Trent today.”

I’ll bet you did. “We started at Trent,” you say sweetly. “but we decided to go shopping for that Christmas party we got invited to. Sophia surprised us with reservations here for tea.” You look at the woman, who seems familiar and raise your eyebrows at him.

“Oh, this is Lara, Lara Winters—”

“Lara Winters?” you extend your hand, giving a slight frown. She looks familiar to you.

“Ah, yes,” She smiles up at you as she takes your hand and shakes it. Your glance drops to her beautifully manicured hand and you also take in her extremely groomed appearance, her makeup and nails impeccable, her clothes giving her the impression of one who modeled. You were in a long sleeved tee and suede sports jacket with riding pants and boots from that morning.

“I knew I’d seen you before. You were at the London Grand Dame function not long ago.”

“Yes, yes I was,” she says slowly, and glances at Henry, then back at you.

“I remember you because you volunteer at the children’s hospital and library in the city,” you say with a smile. “I volunteer in Brixton.”

“And you ride at Trent,” she went on. “Oh, my, you’re the one who rides Lucifer—”

“Luc,” you correct. You look over your shoulder and see your friends looking at this situation. Stella looks upset, Chiru is giving a side eye and Sophie is trying to smile but her eyes look more anxious. “Well, I’d better get back. Nice meeting you, guess I’ll see you at the Grand Dame Christmas party.” You bend again and kiss Henry’s forehead. “See you later.”

“Cheers, darling.”

You give him a quick smile and walk back to your table.

“Well, what a surprise,” Sophie says with obviously feigned optimism. “Did you have a nice visit?”

“Sophie,” Churi rolls her eyes.

“Ladies, I need to get through this tea,” you tell them. “So if we can go on with the conversation we were having about our arrangements for the party?” They all look uncertain. They all don’t like what happened any more than you do, but you are trying to keep your composure, and if the lump in your throat gets too big you won’t be able to breathe and your eyes will water. “Please.”

They all comply, but you don’t like this, and inside you feel you are dying. First he doesn’t seem excited about you accompanying him on the press junket, and now this. And the ways he broke it off with women in the past? Are you a flavor of the month-no, wait-year?

As you continue the conversation with the others you Google Ms. Lara Winters. She is upper class like Henry, looks like his mother, is slender and taller than you...does volunteer work...has a cute dog named Buttons, and is marketing executive and project manager for a video game company?

Shit.

Gogomaggedon Part 5

The Gogos start comin’ and they don’t stop comin’ and they don’t stop comin’ and they don’t stop comin’ and they don’t st

[Part 1] [Part 2] [Part 3] [Part 4]

Name: Simi

Description: Smiling charges up his powers. He smiles and then shoots away.

Ability: Power Smiles

Oh a robe guy! I love robes. And this robe guy’s got a face shrouded in shadow! That’s the best kind of robe guy! Simi has a couple of features which are uncommon for robe guy characters. For one, the robe actually seems to be more of a onesie on account of it having legs, which is pretty cute. Secondly, he’s cheerful! Usually, robe guys tend to be more dour, but not Simi! He smiles a lot and then shoots you! With what? Fuck around and find out!

3.5/5

Name: Simsei

Description: His mouth acts like a freezer and he's always shivering.

Ability: Walking Freezer

Oh, even better!! A very unconventional take on a robe guy and a very successful one! Really enjoy the implication that either the robe has a big mouth cut-out and two eye holes or the robe is flesh. Both very good.

4.5/5

Name: Codi

Description: Always connected. Ask it anything and the data will be downloaded.

Ability: Quick Connection

It’s a fact: everyone loves a good TV head, and Codi is a very good TV head. Sure, its head may actually be TV-shaped, but the print is still nice-looking.

4/5

Codi also has a Wanted variant, and wow, what a wild design! I love all the different markings on the face, especially whatever’s going on with the right eye. I especially dig the bright, eye-popping color scheme.

5/5

Name: Doki

Description: He has an incredibly sweet tooth. When he's not playing he's hunting for sweets.

Ability: Sweet Gobbler

This one’s similar to Chiru from part 3 with the big shiny eyes, but the addition of fangs is enough to save it for me. I like how the mouth is kind of squiggly and uneven, and that the eyes appear to be half-lidded, as if he’s in deep thought about munchin’ on some candy.

3.5/5

Name: Hiraku

Description: The most daring pirate. Endless adventures.

Ability: Boarding

What a dramatic description! There’s not much to Hiraku but a little pirate guy with a big ‘ol hat, and that’s just fine.

3/5

They do have a Most Wanted form as well though, rocking a fangly mouth and a Halloween-y orange on black color scheme. Not much is changed, but it’s definitely an improvement over the regular form!

4/5

Name: Hirchan

Description: No hook and no eye patch but this pirate is still sailing the high seas.

Ability: Treasure Finder

Hey, who needs a hook and an eyepatch when you’ve got a hat that’s twice your size with cool flourishes on it?! Or no eyes to patch, for that matter! Not this scurvy dog, that’s for certain! This is another one of those molds that doesn’t lend itself well to reinterpretations, but Hirchan is alright in my book.

3/5

Name: Rufus

Description: Sees things others can't using the powers of Planet X.

Ability: X-Vision

I like that Rufus calls on the powers of an alien planet to give themself x-ray vision, but is not explicitly stated to be an alien. I really wish they were, because an alien named Rufus would be so good. They’re pretty cool-looking, though! I never really paid much mind to them as a kid but I actually like them a lot.

4/5

Name: Rufistar

Description: He's the main attraction at any party. Creates fun for everyone.

Ability: Hell Raiser

Whoa, Gogo’s Crazy Bones! Are you sure?? Are you sure about a cuss??? Alright! Goofs aside, I actually enjoy Rufistar’s design. Those mismatched eyes and open-mouthed smile are really cute. Don’t like the diaper, though!

3.5/5

Name: Temp

Description: Is the water really cold? What time is it going to rain? Just ask Temp.

Ability: Weather Forecasting

And now, the weather! Temp is a fine example of a robot that didn’t at all need sentience to perform the task they were made to do but has it anyway. I love those! This one’s got a neat GLaDOS-style eye-face and a nice thermometer symbol on their belly. Solid.

4/5

Name: Temsei

Description: He's a real handyman. He can fix anything... except his own shoelaces!

Ability: Fixer Fantastic

You know, handyman was not the first thing that came to mind when I first saw Temsei, but I guess that serves me right for judging based on appearances. You know, now I’m not so sure Temp was actually a robot. I really did just assume that, huh? Oh well! I love what they’ve done with the face-slot, transmogrifying it into a huge vertical maw, complete with jaggedy teeth. It’s a really good example of reworking the mold into something completely new and unique!

4/5

That’s all, folks! Thanks for reading. Love you!

※Please DO NOT REPOST anywhere

[ookamihanta]

What do your ocs like to do when they are relaxing?

I’ll name some under the read more lmao

Chiru - He likes to nap. That’s it. Whenever he has time to ‘relax’, he’s nappin. The process is always that he’s sitting down somewhere and drinking water or something and then he just passes tf out.

Nekko - She loves parties and just group hang outs. For her to be relaxed, she always needs to be doing something. Anything to keep her energetic and working. Nothing is better than a root beer shared between friends.

Rock - He likes reading other mangas from different people he really respects or look up to. He analysis what he likes so much about them and inputs them into his own stories. Basically, even when he’s relaxing, he’s thinking about drawing.

Moon - Believe it or not, Moon is quite a nerd. He loves reading books, especially plays. When in a bad mood and needing to be relaxed, he sits down somewhere quiet to read his favorite books. (Twelve Night is a big fav of his)

Sunny - She works out. Running, push ups, weight lifting, basically anything to get that adrenaline high. And then after that, a nice cold shower and a glass of milk.

Moses - Mo likes to craft in his spare time, which he finds extremely relaxing and also fun. It’s often jewelry he’s making.

Yuna - She often sings or hums to herself when trying to relax. She’s often stressed about her work schedule and deadlines, so she calms herself down by singing songs that she loves.

Persis - He HAS to let out steam by either practice sparring or some sort of fighting stimulation. Punching things is the fastest method for him to let out some stress yknow.

KC - KC likes to chew on things when relaxing. She has a chewing necklace she often keeps on her person at all times. Even when she’s just sitting down somewhere, she’ll have the thing in her mouth. She also plays her guitar to herself just to fill the silence. 

Invo - Oddly, Invo likes to watch k-dramas to relax. He finds them so stupid and predictable, but he can’t stop for some reason. He also goes on walks and hikes, nature always keeps his nerves in place.

Kiwi (Gonna start adding him to stuff too (: ) - Binge eats like crazy. No one is bothering him or anything, he just likes to do it. While he’s doing that, he’s watching reality tv shows like the Murray Show or Catfish lmaoo.
