🎫 here's a gush pass ^^ feel free to gush about whichever f/o you want, however much you want!

Aaahhh, thank you!! <33

Since I don't talk about my familial F/Os nearly as much as my romantic/ platonic ones, Imma gush about my precious boy, Deuce!!

Admittedly, I thought he was pretty mediocre at first. Sure, he had some charming moments at the beginning, but I only really started growing real fond of him around Book 5. We got to see more of his character/ motivations, and he was just so lovable.

I see so much of myself in this boy. The way he tries so hard to become a better person than his past self but still falling back on his old habits from time to time is so endearing. His relationship with his mother is so sweet, and he is just so unbelievably precious, I can't--

He might be a bit slow/ ignorant of things, but that doesn't mean he doesn't learn and isn't willing to learn. He's motivated and sticks to his morals. He cares a significant deal for those close to him, and I want nothing but happiness for him.

Deuce is just so cute, I can't help but want to spoil and dote on him. I'm always cheering him on whenever he's on screen, and whenever he shows concern for MC/ Yuu/ the player, my heart gets all warm and fuzzy and I just want to squeeze him and pat his head/ ruffle his hair and tell him how much of a good boy he is.

I love this boy so much--

@cloudybraiins asked:

This got sent to my main instead of this blog lol but I'm answering it here regardless. Um. Carlosposting ♡

This barely counts as a gush bc I'm not really saying anything (I'm just giving you quotes from canon), but I love him beyond words. Gay autistic scientist husband. Favorite character in the whole world. Everything to me. You understand.

If you're still accepting these; Love at first sight and Amnesia for best tiger Atsushi! o/

Aw, no worries @cloudybraiins! I love answering self-ship asks about my f/o's, even if it takes me a few days to answer cause I either overthink the question/answer or am trying to include draws/sketches for authenticity's sake. I feel like I can never put my thinking into proper words to describe my love for my f/os, especially Atsushi, mi precioso Tigre.

I hope the wait wasn't so long to answer and appreciate your time and recent follow and likes! <3

Amnesia: what's something that you remember about your F/O that others forget?

Hmm, I am terrible at this, cause I couldn't come up with anything that most people don't already know about Atsushi.

Almost everyone is aware of the abuse he was dealt with in the orphanage; his self-sacrificing ways of trying to protect people he cares about and extending his life to strangers too...

I think what really gets to me most of the time is how people often just classify Atsushi as a "weak protagonist" because of the constant flashbacks of his abuse that are shown very prominently through the show/manga; also comparing him to Dazai or any other character. I notice this more in a handful of people that react to Bungou Stray Dogs on the first watch on youtube. Because the reactors are a small bunch only a certain few would play off Atsushi's flashbacks like an annoyance and it really made me physically ill and on the defense.

There is a list of other things,,, but I deleted it out of fear that certain people would find it and throw shade at me for not liking said thing with Atsushi. I felt very heated about it, but it's either going to go to the wall or people figure out what it is and again throw shade my way.... besides getting mad at it will only drain me and made me frustrated cause it won't stop said thing from existing~

The matter is, Atsushi is a damn well amazing protagonist, a great number of people see that, and that is what matters most to me. Those that cherish his precious being and actions of protecting others and being a chazuke-loving and sarcastic were-tiger are what matter most to me <3

Love at first sight: what's most the noticeable thing about your F/Os looked?

Ah, the most noticeable thing that, for me, made me soft and a weak mess was Atsushi's hair if you could believe it (I actually notice hair a lot in people, especially if it’s a little longer on guys). There was just something so endearing about how his hair was cut, later found out the reason it was like that was due to some kids in his orphanage doing it as a joke ;;;;;n;;;;;; ,,, like why did they do that them pricks...

But nevertheless, his haircut remains so endearing and very much a signature part of his. I definitely believe his hair is soft and floofy, despite what Wan seems to deem, I feel like he cuts his hair by himself to save money on hair cuts, and trims his tail bang occasionally to keep it from being so long and tangling on his face <3 I also softly headcanon that he lets his hair grow out a little later on in the future, making it extra fluffy and Dany tangling her hands through it, which he loves a lot!

The close second was his lovely eyes/his sweet smile, also I am just a mess over his voice in both the Japanese Sub and English Dub. There is something so melodic about both of them, especially the English dub for me,,, I just love him so much I am a mess over him. Despite me always being a self-insert person since I remember, as well as shipping Oc's that I deemed me with certain characters in the past, Atsushi holds a special place in my heart cause he (and Ranpo too) were the first characters I openly began to selfship with <3.

I appreciate the ask very much and I hope you enjoyed the responses! 🤍

Randomizer gave me Nivix Cyclops, so let's go with that one!!

Hello and welcome to the ask box! I'll admit, I've never heard of this card before!

Nivix Cyclops is a 1 power, 4 toughness Defender creature for 3 energy - one generic, one Blue, and one Red. When you cast an instant or sorcery spell, it gets a +3 boost to power (that accumulates!) and can attack as though it didn't have Defender.

I know I'm always on a "Defender Creatures make good wards or protective servitors/thoughtforms" kick, but dang if the generator didn't just hand me the perfect guardian for spell workings.

Picture this. You're doing a ritual out in the Missouri wilderness. You have all your mundane protections in place (high vis clothing so you don't get hit by hunters on accident, pepper spray, a sword, stuff like that) but you realize you forgot to bring magical protections! But with this dude, no big deal, you just pop it up and bam, you've got a circle guardian or whatever you'd like to call it.

As for how I'd set it up to begin with, I make it no secret that sodalite is my go-to Blue protection stone. And because I'm partial to my own namesake, I'd go for red jasper for the Red source, but technically any crystal falls under the umbrella of Red energy. I might go for howlite for White energy if I use this funky little creature in coven or community castings, obsidian for Black if I solo-cast spells and rituals, or...pretty much any stone, even generic rocks, for Green if I'm almost always doing these things in the Missouri wilderness. Which I DO NOT recommend, by the way. That's a fast way to get eaten by a coyote. Or a bear. Or a bobcat. Or the fae.

Anyway, this funky creature is now my child. Thanks for dropping by!

@cloudybraiins fed the stray dog asked the summoner:

*leaves some fresh warm bread for him and scurries away as if nothing happened*

The stranger (he thinks he had seen that android creature before) was gone just as fast as they came, only a small basket of bread left in their wake. A spontaneous act of kindness? Perhaps a thank-you for a monster hunting job well done? Who knew.

The Wind did pick up the item, cape's collar lowering somewhat as he brought it closer, taking in the pleasant, comforting scent. Distrustful as he was, he had to sustain himself somehow. But first, he would linger a while with his face all but planted in the basket - eyes closed, content. Reminded of home in a more pleasant way, for once.

The offering was well received and very much appreciated.

Whoops, I just up and vanished didn’t I?? fdsjkfbjs 

Welllllll things are gonna be a bit more spotty anyway, my hyperfixation has actually shifted away from Tales as well as RPing quite a bit! (DB Xenoverse my beloved) And some things have come up IRL that make trying to divide my attention not super easy. So, I don’t think I’ll be accepting any new memes or threads, and I’ll continue queueing things as needed. I’ll try to pop in every few days to make sure you all know I haven’t poofed! But if you wanna keep in contact, just send an ask to my personal @cloudybraiins​ for my Discord, that’s the most guaranteed way for me to see it!

Also RIP Crestoria I hope Bamco makes a proper game for Kanata and everyone, I was really enjoying the storyline ujyhtgrfe

[fonicsight-a]

Okay, as much as I’d love to let Jade continue causing chaos, I need to hop to mobile for the night! If anyone wants to chat, feel free to stop by my personal @cloudybraiins​! See you all later~!
