How much did they have to pay Hugh Laurie to say this line with such disgust?

Two venn diagrams. The first is about Faulkner and Paige and says, "I accomplished what I set out to do and it's the worst thing in my life. I hate the role I've trapped myself into" in the overlapping section.

The second diagram is about Val and Faulkner and says, "I've done a lot of bad things but it's fine, the end result will be worth it guys I promise this had to be done hey-"

Obsessed with what America and England have going on in HetaOni. America's like "I keep having to watch my dad die from overusing his magic in past timelines and not knowing how to stop it is killing me inside but I'm not going to talk to him about it" and England's like "I can't seem to hold a conversation with my son without insulting him but I won't hesitate to use my dying breath to ensure I can protect him from beyond the grave"

This is the Tea Ceremony Sweets Set, which was available at the Pokémon Cafe when I visited Tokyo last year, and featured Pikachu, Rowlet, Hisuian Lilligant, and Matcha Cream Alcremie as little desserts.

These desserts being a matcha & yoghurt mini parfait, a caramel pudding, a sweet cheese flavoured steamed cake, and (my favourite) a scoop of chestnut ice cream. At the time, you could also get the Poltchageist Teahouse’s Omotenashi! Drink and Sweets Set, which included a matcha latte alongside the desserts, served in a Sinistcha cup, with extra matcha in a Poltchageist tea caddy, and a Pikachu cookie.

I believe the matcha latte is still on the menu, but the sweets set was only available for a limited time only.

Can I be real for a second? I don't think L giving a foot massage to Light was very in-character of him. Like manga!L would've totally scoffed at how pathetic anime!L appeared when he did that.

I like the rain scene bc it's really pretty (also Light MOANS bc of L? *sighs* yeah i ship lawlight) but I'm always so ?? at anime!L's behavior? The anime made L way too melancholic and y'know self-deprecating kinda guy. In contrast, manga!L (whom I love to death) is so so confident in doing what he's doing and has the time of his life during the Kira case as he's intellectually challenged (by Light) as he figures out the case little by little.

I don't get where the anime creators got the idea that L is a very sad character who cares about justice so much so that he's actually Justice itself? Manga!L enjoys solving cases. I'm not saying that L doesn't care about justice at all- just that he cares more about winning.

So, the anime creators looked at a character who cares about winning (& his own ego) than everything else and decided to... make him give a foot massage to his nemesis (surprise surprise bible symbolism featuring L as Jesus *🤮* coming up) apparently due to accepting Light's (boy's first debut as Judas) 'betrayal' how can there be betrayal when there was no trust between them in the first place and saying "It is the least I can do to atone for my sins"...

The only way I could've made a little sense of this is if L was mocking Kira with that line but the anime just had to go above & beyond to make it (L's actions) seem too genuine for that to be true. which is. so. FRUSTRATING

Manga!L wouldn't have done anything like that. Not even ironically (he'd have thought it to be below him for pretending to be accepting his defeat mockingly to Kira). Even Manga!L's not enough of a bastard to try to compare himself with Jesus (and just after knowing (god knows how) that he's going to die)- like that's too stupid omg: even for a mockery.

Does he actually think that Light would pick up on the (him as Jesus) symbolism and be like 'oh no! L is too noble like Jesus to die by my betrayal i'm such a bad judas how come i NEVER NOTICED THIS BEFORE'... and decide to spare L's life? Or embrace his inner Judas like the bad bitch he is and finish L for that godawful mockery of Jesus?

Whenever I think about Anime!Light's in-character reaction I crack up as it would be smth like 'wow this guy who graduated summa cum laude from torture university is pretending to be Jesus? lol what a real piece of work. would've expected better from you L: so pathetic lmao i hope rem kills you soon i'm so done with you rn- rip 💀'

Manga!L (if he knew he were going to die (don't know how that's possible in the anime; still we're talking about how the anime creators seem to see L as Jesus so ~anything is possible~) that is) would never go 'guess i'll die' accept his defeat offering a foot massage to his enemy and inwardly throw a pity party being all "… It'll be lonely, won't it?" GIRL you were the one going on & about how you'd EXECUTE Kira once you catch him on live tv (also saying that you'd bring Kira's head to the task force) I REALLY doubt you'd feel lonely if either one of you were to die- that (killing each other) was the point!!

Manga!L is a selfish character: he values his victory above all else so the anime making him accept defeat that easily + gracefully doesn't sit well with me.

"Aghh!", another player groaned as he was shot in the back three times.

("Twenty down...one more to go..."), Psychic thought while reloading his paintball marker.

To Psychic, paintball was no different from taking down targets in actual missions. Lock on target from the shadows, shoot, reload. Those three simple steps applied here as well, except the targets wouldn't die. They were lucky that they'd walk away with a nasty bruise or two from it at the most. After all, there was nothing preventing him from making the little multicolored pellets hurt more than they already did.

("Hm. I like this, actually. I should thank Hood for suggesting this."), Psychic thought as he scaled down the tree he was in and began scanning his surroundings.

However, just as he finished looking around, he stopped the paintball flying towards his back and redirected it to the tree on his left.

"Come out, Void. You know that doesn't work on me.", Psychic said while rolling his eyes.

Not long after, Void emerged from the trees above and decended down right in front of Psychic.

"Aw, lighten up, will ya Psy? After all, I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine!", Void exclaimed, firing another shot at him as he finished his sentence.

Psychic immediately caught the capsule and fired it back at him, with Void letting out a yelp as he barely managed to move out of the way in time.

"I'm surprised you lasted this long without Lux and Tux.", Psychic said as he prepared his marker.

"Hey, ain't my fault you took them down first. It's all about skill and survival! That's how you win!", Void said as he almost dropped his marker while trying to prepare it.

"You mean cowering behind trees and using other players as living shields?", Psychic replied, groaning in annoyance.

"Wha-?! Shut up! It's not like you're one to shoot other guys directly! You always gotta be hiding somewhere!", Void spat back.

"Am I not supposed to do that? You shoot, you win. It doesn't get more complicated than that.", Psychic said while lowering his marker slightly, starting to regret not taking him down first.

"Ugh, whatever! The point is that I'm gonna win! And you ain't gonna stop me!", Void said, pointing his own marker directly at him.

"We'll see.", Psychic said as he raised it directly at him as well.

The two simply stared at each other, eyes fixated on the other like hawks to see who would make the first move.

Then, with one pull of the trigger, a capsule was fired.

The capsule traveled right towards the other before it suddenly slammed to the ground in front of his feet.

"What?"

Void looked up and glared at Psychic with a manic grin on his face.

"Dont forget, you're not the only one who can deflect shots, pal.", Void said before firing a barrage of shots right at him.

Psychic snapped out of his initial shock and jumped between the shots like a bird flying through a canyon between trees and rocks. He then countered with his own barrage of shots, which were quickly sent barreling towards the ground like the shot before it.

"There's more where that-"

Suddenly, paintballs went flying past both Void and Psychic, just barely missing as they struck the trees in the distance.

"Who's there?!", Void exclaimed, pointing his marker in the direction the capsule came from.

Without thinking, Psychic pointed his marker in the same direction, not considering that Void could take this opportunity to shoot. Fortunately, though, Void missed this opportunity as Psychic slowly decended to the ground.

"Where the hell did those come from?", Void asked, turning to Psychic.

"There must have been another player we weren't aware of.", he replied.

...

"So, you wanna help me get em?", Void suggested.

"What?"

"Look, man, I wanna be the one to take you down and win. What if I get shot by that other guy after that? Or what about you? They almost got us back there. Come on, what do you say?"

On that note, Psychic didn't know why he was entertaining this and decided against shooting Void while he was rambling. Did he find it amusing and not realize it? Or did he feel bad for him for not taking down any players?

No, it couldn't have been the latter.

"Fine. Truce?", Psychic reluctantly proposed.

"Truce.", Void said while raising his marker, expecting Psychic to tap his against his own.

"Let's just go.", Psychic said, walking past him and preparing his own marker.

"Damn...okay assh-"

"I beg your pardon?"

"N-nothing!", Void exclaimed as he ran to catch up with him.

The two snuck around, glancing in every direction to find the third player before Void heard a rustle in the bushes and guided Psychic in the same direction towards the noise.

The two then crouched behind the trees next to the bushes, reloading their markers one last time before exchanging glances with one another.

Then, the two jumped out and began firing and shouting as loud as they could. They fired until the trees were coated in paint. They fired until their throats hurt from screaming. They fired until their markers completely ran out of ammo, and the only sounds that could be heard were the clicks of the triggers firing nothing.

Slowly, the two opened their eyes and took a look at what they had done. On the ground, the player was crouched into a ball with their back facing them and completely covered in paint. No less than a few seconds later, they turned around to reveal their face, surprising the both of them.

"Hood?!", Void exclaimed.

"Were you the one who fired those shots at us?", Psychic asked.

"Y-yep...y-you got me...and it looks like I got you guys too.", Hood pointed out.

Void and Psychic looked at each other to see a single paint stain on each other's chests.

"G-guess that means we all win, huh...h-hold on...I gotta- I gotta lie down for a sec-", Hood said before promptly passing out.

The two panicked and ran over to help their friend, taking off their helmets and discarding their markers.

"Hood! Wake up! Hood?!", Psychic shouted, shaking him and removing Hood's helmet and taking off his vest.

Void then flipped Hood on his stomach and lifted up his shirt, revealing dozens of bruises dotting his back and arms.

"Oh shi- w-well, don't just stand there! Help him!", Void shouted at Psychic, to which he lifted Hood up into his arms via telekinesis and began running while Void dialed an ambulance.

"I pay the ambulance and you pay the hospital bills?!", Psychic shouted at Void as they ran.

"Deal!"
