#cussing vs cursing

[that-hippie-user]

"who's the writer here, googie? cursing is for the bourgeoisie." is the single greatest statement ive heard, and i'm calling them googie from now on.

No, Google Docs, there is a distinct difference between "cussing" and "cursing."

Got another angels (saint Peter, Adam, lute, Emily) x reader request lol;

How would they react with a reader who is a redeemed sinner? The reader still maintains some of their old hell habits—cursing a lot and very comfortably, cursing with words like “Christ on a stick—“, not trusting anyone, pda is different in heaven vs hell, ect

you're good! this is actually kind of interesting to think about!!

༉‧₊˚. SAINT PETER ₊˚. in the bible, saint peter actually doubts jesus multiple times and this shows that he is capable of doubt, even against heaven ₊˚. and meeting a redeemed sinner changes his perspective on a lot of things about the place he calls home ₊˚. though sometimes your foul mouth makes him cringe a bit, he knows that humans are flawed by nature - but don't expect the language to catch on with him haha ₊˚. he's weak for being flirted with, so there's definitely moments where he finds himself getting a little too wound up when you're flirting with him in public ₊˚. though he never pushes you to trust others, aside from just soothing you when you get nervous about someone's intentions; he knows you just need time to adjust!

ೃ⁀➷ ADAM ➷ of course this fucking asshole is going to do anything he can to prove that you don't belong in heaven ➷ which, because of both of you ramming heads so frequently, definitely turns into a hate-sex situationship ➷ both of you are foul-mouthed, and sometimes even he has to be the one to go "(name), take a chill pill or something- fucking holy shit-" ➷ you've definitely both gotten into trouble for being a little too public with your affections before, but it never seems to stop either of you from being flirtatious little angry shits with each other

₊˚ପ⊹ LUTE ⊹ when riled up, this girl is the queen of saying foul and dirty things and she even beats YOU at your own game in private ⊹ in public, she's much more reserved - she's better at keeping herself able to fit in than you are ⊹ she also doesn't really like you at first because she agrees with adam; you shouldn't be in heaven and it's a shame that you're such an insult to the ways of hell ⊹ it takes much longer to win her over than it does adam and even then, she's not a fan of your behavior and takes it upon herself to correct it whenever she can (even though it's incredibly hypocritical)

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ EMILY ❥ emily is very excited to know a sinner made it to heaven! she knew that charlie was right and souls can be redeemed, and you're the perfect example of that! ❥ sort of. your habits are a bit too rough around the edges and you have a really bad habit of saying things that make her blush like crazy in public ❥ but you're new! you're not used to the rules and regulations of heaven yet, and that's okay because she can teach you ❥ you convince her to cuss one time when you're alone, and she does a little giggle and just whispers "fuck" under her breath, and then grins at you like a champion

That's why I have a political and non-political account <3

I find it amusing when people are like "IF YOU VOTED FOR TRUMP UNFOLLOW ME NOW" and it's not because anyone is harassing them or anything, they just think they have that kind of power.

From my POV, it's like "you've made your political agenda very clear, I assure you. I'm not here to chat about/challenge your views at all. I'm here because I love your comics/art/etc and think they're neat."

I'm not walking away because you tell me I have to.

In fact, if I was debating leaving, I'm sure not now.

I'm going to sit unnoticed in my corner, reblog/like your content to my heart's desire, and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.

So there. Take the admiration of a Trump voter.

I'll leave when I choose to leave, thank you very much.

I don’t know if you’ve already covered this, but I had a question to ask about the VDC in Book 5. To clarify, I understand that RSA needed to win for thematic and character arc purposes, and that in-lore it was an audience vote not a professional one. The story beats line up. But the choice of cutesy and childlike RSA performance over the more refined and professional NRC performance still doesn’t quite click with me. Is there some kind of cultural difference that didn’t translate to explain why one performance was supposed to be understood as preferred over the other? Even if it was an audience vote, the standards should be higher just by virtue of this being a big name competition for teenagers held at a prestigious school.

Very quickly, I want to add a couple other points that help to explain why RSA won over NRC! Book 6 opens early on with Vil noting that NRC was not able to perform as well as they wanted to since they had just come out of a difficult battle against his OB form. (Because of this, he accepts responsibility for their loss.) Thus, the NRC performance may not have actually been as "refined", "professional", or as polished as we imagine it to be.

Additionally, it’s stated in book 5 that RSA’s song choice had universal appeal whereas NRC’s did not. We see this effect on the production crew when Neige and the Seven Dwarves do their practice run; their performance has a refreshing and soothing effect on what appears to be an older audience (as it plays to their nostalgia); we must consider this when evaluating RSA and NRC. For example, I know that I really disliked NRC's performance (sue me/j) because it sounded very oppressive and therefore unrelatable to me. The lyrics are literally about how NRC will dominate their opponents and win 😭 Sure, the music and lyrics for Neige's song aren't complex, but they're at the very least accessible and easy to follow along with. (That's not to say that I prefer RSA's performance though; I'm just explaining why someone might not find NRC's performance appealing.)

Lastly! We as players are looking at the two song + dance numbers from an omniscient perspective. We need to consider our own biases when judging, and accept that it may differ from the characters in-universe view things. Maybe you prefer NRC’s performance. That’s fair! But how much of that is informed by your personal music preferences? And how much of that comes from your attachment to the NRC characters, since you’ve followed their stories up until this point? As Rook points out in book 5, he’s aware of how hard NRC has worked to get here… but he’s also aware of Neige’s hardships too (er, in terms of his lifestyle; ie living with the dwarves and doing chores, etc.). Consider then, would you honestly not have a bias for RSA had Twisted Wonderland’s story centered on them instead of NRC?

It’s also worth noting that how things are seen in Twisted Wonderland may reflect its own unique culture rather than how we in the real world may perceive it. Maybe the people of Twisted Wonderland just prefer a cute, nostalgic performance. This may not necessarily correlate with west or east at all and that has always been a possibility! (While TWST does take inspirations from the real world, it’s not a 1:1 with the real world.)

dkhlbaiyfadvfoad Okay, NOW onto the actual question being pitched!

When you look at media from different countries, there are some stark differences in how the same information is presented. One example is like... any Gordon Ramsay show yes, I am using him as an example. Compare the American cut and the British cuts; there are much more loud sound effects, dramatic music, yelling, and cussing in the American cuts. The British cuts, by comparison, are notably quieter and contemplative, with hardly any cursing. Another example! Looking at variety shows from the east vs the west, they're quite different as well. Eastern variety shows tend to be "cute", usually using various cute sound effects or edits which make the guests appear more bashful (like drawing blush over their cheeks or something). We don't see this in western TV shows, which are louder and more boisterous. I've noticed a similar trend in the music industries of the east vs the west as well, where eastern stars tend to emphasize their youthfulness and playfulness and western stars try to be more "mature" and grown-up. These are just my personal observations and may not reflect reality, especially seeing as I am not involved in music-oriented spaces.

I asked friends and personal contacts in both eastern and western pop music fandom spaces for their own insights (which is also in no way representative of both fandoms, but at least this gives us other perspectives for consideration). To summarize, most of them replied that they did not think cultural differences account for this situation, since equating a preference for a "cute" aesthetic is not the same as RSA performing what is basically a nursery rhyme. There's no real-world equivalent for that (at least none that they can think of), and I agree with all of this. There’s really no point in trying to compare the two.

I remember lots of Japanese fans being upset at NRC’s loss too (when book 5’s ending was first put out), so the impression I got was they didn’t prefer the performance of RSA over NRC either. It was not just the international fandom that was disappointed. I don’t believe TWST ever intentionally set out to present “Everyone Yahoo!” as the “superior” song and dance number, or as the performance we’re supposed to like more than the other. It was very much framed as something pathetic and unlikely to win in most of the eyes of the NRC characters. They make fun of RSA’s clumsiness and claim it’ll be easy to win over them. The player most likely is supposed to think this way too—until Vil, the one with an eye for showbiz, realizes his loss. Why? Because it doesn’t matter what we think. What matters is how this clumsy performance will resonate with the common person.

What I think it ultimately comes down to is emotional appeal to the audience, which is more of a personal/individual level thing than a cultural thing. The competition is decided by audience vote. The average person honestly does not care about quality or standards. No one is giving them rules to evaluate by, no one is going to tell them off for not having strict standards. They will pick based on what they like best or whatever makes them feel good. And what will make anyone feel food, regardless of age, sex, race, education, socioeconomic status, etc.? Something cozy and familiar, thoughts of simpler times… Nostalgia.

Something else to think about is what a powerful motivator emotions can be. There are irl idol competition shows that are high stakes and decided by audience vote just like VDC/SDC… and people will still vote for their favorites even if they gave a technically bad performance. This is because fans are so emotionally invested in and attached to the performer. It doesn’t matter how “bad” they are, the performer/performance makes the audience member feel impassioned, and they will then act according to those intense feelings. Think about what you’re like when you’re in a terrible mood vs a good one. You act completely differently, right?

I hope that perspective helps! 🙏 I tried to be as thorough as I could be in this response, but please let me know if I misspoke or maybe missed a point.

P.S. I happen to be responding to this ask after TWST showed us the NRC Tribe’s dance performance in a MMD video. I wonder if this only made the “NRC should have own” crowd double down on that opinion since now we’re seeing just what their performance looks like 🤔 (though we don’t have a complete MMD video of Neige’s group to directly compare, just this which shows part of the dance and not in the same clumsy way that Neige and co. perform it).

so. Dream gets cursed by an spurned admirer/ex/random vindictive magic user which he pays absolutely no mind to because he's definitely been cussed out worse than that.

But suddenly anyone and everyone he encounters becomes a simpering mess/fawning idiot around him. in the Dreaming, everyone acts so horrendously out of character that it becomes so so awkward for him. absolutely tanks his productivity. the earthquakes (dreamquakes?) may or may not facilitate in some necessary physical distancing. someone lobs the L word at him and he nearly rips a hole through space and time to get away. it's better/worse in the Waking world. he doesn't know these people trying to seduce him. but they are still trying to seduce him so he does the Endless version of power walking away from this problem.

and he makes his way to The New Inn where he knows Hob is. he has absolutely no idea what Hob can do but going to a friend is a better alternative to just going from realm to realm, power walking away from a collection of people convinced they are in love?? with him????

Hob is definitely at his usual place in the New Inn and can absolutely feel the change in atmosphere the moment Dream enters. suddenly everyone zeroes in on Dream and Hob...has never seen that expression on his friend's face. like a cornered animal, if only in the form of a more than a god, no less than a goth that is Dream of the Endless. so Hob manages to shoo away the crowd from Dream, using his extraordinary powers of being the owner of the inn everyone is in to good use.

they hole up at Hob's place and try to figure out what the actual fuck is going on. Hob concludes that yes Dream, someone saying that "your lack of understanding of love is obviously caused by the scarcity of it in your life," and "that can be solved easily," is at the v least a red flag and at most the reason why there is a horde of people on your walking aphrodisiac ass rn. Dream points out that it's mild criticism not a curse. Hob does not have the training or time to unpack that one today.

hijinks that occur while they're trying to uncurse Dream:

call in Constantine for back up. the house call goes very badly for everyone involved. there was a sultry come on. a creature older than humanity lowkey scrambling up the kitchen shelves. an immortal testing his immortality by throwing a hissing magic user out the door. anyway. the consultation goes on much better on the phone. everyone promises never to talk about this incident ever again.

Dream contemplating on whether he should call on his siblings because they might know something about this or even causing it. but what they also get affected by this curse. would Dream be able to handle that?? and his thoughts spin out of control until Dream wordlessly just lies down on Hob's living room floor. Hob panics because is this the next part of the curse??? no it's just Dream borrowing trouble which is it's own curse but one at a time please and thank you.

Hob fighting off a delivery person who nearly breaks the door down when they catch a glimpse of Dream still on the living room floor. no one was hurt, no dumplings were forsaken, a huge tip was placed on the delivery person's face before closing the door.

the nature of love is discussed over dimsum. it's mostly how Dream deserves to be loved and respected (Hob) vs huh what a concept (Dream)

Matthew tries to sneak in so Hob and Dream have to find new hiding places in the Hob's place. the current favorite is under a blanket with a flashlight on

At some point Dream realizes that Hob is just. the way he usually is around Dream. no throwing himself af Dream or flowery declarations or anything??? Dream concludes (wrongly) that Hob's immortality might be making him immune. Hob is just sitting there, wondering if going "lol no, it's too late for that!! i've been down bad for you for centuries!!!" would be an appropriate response. it's not but god is he tempted. he gives in to his other temptation and lets Dream think that "yes immortality has anti-curse properties i guess, you really do learn something new everyday (cue nervous laughter)" 👀👀👀

omgggg ellie did u see the gojo q&a that gege did ??

okay yes i have seen it and i have thoughts

no bc i fuckin knew he has a thing for older woman and/or cougars n would 100% be a sugar baby. he has always given that kind of energy. like, his personality is so fuckin pool boy, and the milfs would eat that shit UUUUUPPPPPPPPPPP thank u to gege for sponsoring this headcanon 🙏🏼

i just know his LinkedIn is STAAACKKEEDD dudes got that nine page resume

okkkk bilingual king 🤭 i feel like he would only know the cuss words tho 😕😕😕

him spacing out instantly is such a fuckin mood but also i never thought of how sobriety vs intoxication might affect someone’s cursed technique or cursed energy? thats kinda cool

its ok he can be my passenger princess

gege saying his personality for both of these things is literally me in job interviews when they ask what your greatest strengths and weaknesses are lmfao

translation: he knows how to boil an egg 👍🏼

my man my man my maaaannnn 😫👏🏼👏🏼

i rebuke this headcanon he is a cat guy 💯 he the type to look at a dog n be like “tf u lookin at ugly?” and then cuddle his turkish angora kitten until it purrs loud enough to wake up the whole city

:(( ………someone wrap him in blanket rn or i’ll sob

anywho yea those are my thoughts

[jazeswhbhaven]

Random ass thought, Somehow Solomon got revived or he's just there… physically…

Idk I just thought it would be funny if MC was chasing his ass around, cursing him out and shit for putting the MC in the current situation theyre in lmaoo, ion even know if the Mc would canonically do that but sigh lets just act like they will🧘

And the kings +nobles are just shocked cause wtf why is Solomon here?? Then there's the other mfs who r just amused by the fact Solomon and Solomons descendant are both there..theyre getting freaky thoughts and shit ESPECIALLY asmodeus or Beelzebub😭 thinking of a threesome or more with both Solomon and his descendant ong🙁

-🐉 can I be dragon anon if u don't have one… or yapper anon

hi! you can be 🐉 anon! the title is yours~

OK SO FIRST OF ALL. I wouldn't even blame MC for cussing him out because they only got a glimpse of him for a couple times for clarity and he was still vague.

And well, I think the nobles and Kings would feel different based on their relationship with Solomon vs. MC in the first place. I think there's a couple Kings that didn't have a close relationship with Solomon like that so their feelings with MC wouldn't change. That being Mammon, Leviathan (iirc), Lucifer is a nope most likely, and I'm pretty sure Belphie met Solomon because he taught him how to roll dice but at the same time....the timeline seems a bit off with that? Idk. Satan would feel conflicted, Asmodeus too because I mean Solomon WAS his first love. Beelzebub is neutral, but he'd probably prefer MC over Solomon due to his focus shifting.

Nobles wise I think the one who would most have an eternal conflict is Sitri because he's been calling MC by Solomon's name this entire time. He would implode at this point.

I'm not even sure of what the other nobles would think. It would be a mix of confusion and reassuring MC they wouldn't be pushed aside.

As for any uh threesomes? I think Asmodeus is the only one to match that energy and personally that ain't for me. Lol. I'll leave it at that.

[admirelight]

I would love a spin-off series of James Vega and Grunt having to work together after Shepard's death/disappearance. (The alliance wants to make an effort to keep Krogan/Human relations on a good note.)

Those two are such meat heads. Most of their missions end with guns blazing. Hackett in near tears looking at the absurd expense reports cursing Shepard’s spirit for creating these two chaos demons. He would beg the VS to train James better, and they would shrug, pointing out that he gets the job done. (Also, not really their problem as specters.)

James and Grunts disagreements are always settled with a sparring match that eventually evolves into James and Grunt head butting each other into submission, with James' recruits watching in horror, and Grunt's team taking bets. James acts as a wingman for Grunt to help the kid get laid with a very stubborn but pretty Krogan woman. Grunt eating a rocket to save James at some point and show off Grunts' new scars to Garrus, who is completely over their shit talking.

I can just picture James requesting Jack to join him and Grunt on a mission to blow up a Cerberus building. Vega feels scared-horny for the lady, and Grunt makes a point to press Jack's buttons to get her to cuss or to just piss her off so he can watch her rip people apart. The budget team was sobbing and on the verge of quitting over the damage reports, as Hackett hunts down the idiot that approved the two most destructive members of the alliance to go on a mission with Grunt.

James gets into a fight with another Krogan, and Grunt is quick to put that Krogan in their place. Wrex eventually would make James an honorary Krogan at Grunt's encouragement, and let's James take the Krogan test with one Wrex's kids.

Idk ya'll, I just love the mass effect companions so much, I want to see their lives after Shepard.

Hello! I was wondering if you got some Eliksni cuss words or something similar yet? I got a character that tend to curse a lot when he failed at something (something he made breaks down or he got his butt kicked in a sparring match), and I was wondering if you planned for any curses at the moment?

New here and confused? This post is part of my ongoing project to create a language for the Eliksni! For more information check out my masterpost linked here.

Here are some curse words I came up with from my current dictionary! Definitely not exhaustive, just what I could make off the top of my head!

Words for expressing frustration, anger, annoyance, etc: Irso: shortening of irsovek meaning "a lie/a deception", basically means "bullshit" or any variation thereof.

Piidsa: literally "shit" but would be used like "damn (it), shit, fuck", expressing surprise, frustration, or similar. Also can be used as an adjective/adverb for emphasis, e.g. pehka "bad" vs piidsa pehka "bad as hell/fucking bad".

Vathaan: imperative form of "die", literally telling someone to "go die". Comes across as "get fucked/go fuck yourself".

Words for insulting people:

Slo'at: prey, when you use it against a person it means you think they're weak/useless.

Nadrosk: "no-honor", I chose the English translation to be "coward" but it could also stand in for any number of words like "bastard", "motherfucker", etc. VERY insulting, only call someone this to their face if you wanna get decked. Not a word that could be used in a playful or friendly context the way we might lovingly call a friend "bastard".

Apart from the above words, which would be vulgar in any context, using the correct register is incredibly important, and not doing so properly can be seen as rude, disrespectful, or even insubordinate. It's a little hard to give examples from English since there's not really such a rigid system of registers, but think of it like calling a teacher by their first name or swearing in front of your boss. Unless you know they're gonna be cool with it, it would come off as super rude. Just using the wrong register with someone, especially intentionally, would be like swearing in Eliksni.

[stankyler]

you’re watching south park. kenny is notorious for dying in hilarious ways which is a continuous gag for 14 real human years. that’s just a silly little bit though! on the rare occasion he does talk (muffled) he’s a cheerful silly guy :) you’re watching s14e11 “coon 2: hindsight” where they’re all playing superheroes! kenny laments to his friends for the first time that not only does he resent them for never remembering his extremely painful deaths, he also desperately wants to find out why he’s been forced to constantly suffer in a way no one will ever understand. this is the most he has ever spoken at once. his friends all look at him like he’s insane and are even freaked out by him. he’s nine years old and he shoots himself in the head to prove a point but of course he wakes up in his bed the next day. this is all undercut by a joke about the BP Oil company fucking the earth so much it becomes DP Oil. you’re watching s14e12 “mysterion rises.” kenny finds out that he has to live like this because his parents went to a cult meeting to get free alcohol when they were pregnant with him and he sustained the side effects of a lovecraftian curse. eric cartman has gotten cthulu (released when DP Oil drilled so deep they opened a portal into another dimension) to banish all his friends to a nightmare realm in a hissy fit because they wouldn’t let him play with them anymore. kenny kills himself to save his friends. you’re watching s14e13 “coon vs coon and friends.” kenny confronts an ancient dark being the size of a skyscraper (literally cthulu) and cusses him out while screaming and begging for him to tell him what the ultimate fate of his curse is. this is cut short by a cereal joke. the episode ends with kenny shooting himself again because he’s tired. fuck you. you’re watching south park.

[apphiarothowrites]

I don’t know what’s funnier

(1)Marco being the accidental love child of rocks and whitebeard through some trans magic and phoenix fuckery

(2)Or Marco’s mother being alive, known as “auntie” to all the white beards and coming aboard the moby to visit her son

(1)Because on the one hand you have Ace going “my dad was a monster” and Marco just being silent like… yeah that’s rough buddy (and goes along with my personal headcanon that rocks was the last user of the tori tori no mi, and ended up going insane because of the phoenix) Marco looks like Wb except for the eyes (rocks had the prettiest eyes)

(2)On the other hand you have this random lady who boards the moby every once in a while who is a carbon copy of Marco except bigger tiddies and longer hair who is absolutely adored by all the crew. Who will in all of her 5.9 glory cuss out whitebeard for hours while brandishing a chancla (thatch will be lovingly kicked out of the kitchen post hast during her visit)

In both of these scenarios Ace is permanently flabbergasted and I can’t decide which to choose

(Sorry if I’m spamming, I just really wanted to share this)

1 is interesting because it would actually make Marco a couple years younger than in Canon to the same age as Shanks or he'd have to have been at most 6 years old on the Rocks Pirates ship (current speculation is that right after the final battle of Rocks D. Xebec, the God Valley Incident, Roger found newborn/infant Shanks in the aftermath and adopted him right there then found buggy not long after).

The "my dad was a monster" relatability but it'd make for a *fascinating* case of nature vs nurture. Same "nature" for them both but whereas Ace was raised believing his blood is cursed and his dad at least was a horrible person, Marco was raised believing his blood doesn't matter its what you do with your life that does (and that his dad wasnt evil, just hugely ambitious which led him down a hard path) (also makes marco's lack of ambition thematically similar to Ace's lack odlf desire to be pirate king). Phoenix notwithstanding of course (bonus for marco if eating the fruit was a complete accident that nobody planned for him and WB had to remove himself from the situation at first because he was laughing hysterically).

2 is just plain funny. Amazingly embarrassing mom who mothers the whole crew and actually guilts Pops into being more conscious of his health because look what that stress is doing to her precious boy!!! Thatch evicted from the kitchen so Auntie/Mama Bird can feed her boy and all his friends? I'm crying that's so fucking good.

Ace gets his cheek pinched, his ear grabbed so he can be dragged around, and a lecture on wearing shirts because he'll catch his death of cold if he doesn't before getting drowned in soup. Meanwhile Marco is just "yes mama"ing his way through her visit (yes mama I'll write more, yes mama I'll make an honest man out of ace, yes mama I'll make sure my cousins are invited to the wedding). 🤣🤣🤣

My Highlights for AEW Wrestledream 2023

There was a dream, a dream of wrestling

And Antonio Inoki sought that dream when he founded NJPW

But now AEW has invited the dangling from its hinges Forbidden Door open again to celebrate Inoki on the anniversary of his death.

Let's see what was good about this show

Spoilers for the PPV

Zero Hour

"She's so sweet, but so dumb, god bless her" Richard of House Starks speaking of Lexy Nair, fiancée of one large William

Props for the Julia vignette, it aired on Collision and apparently someone on twitter helped film it so good for them

Stokely 'Urban Dictionary dot com' Hathaway

TK donning the Inoki scarf with Inoki's grandkids, Shibata and Rocky

Christian Cage Noooooo

Athena doing Billie's jump and Keith's Limitless pose, and then almost blindsided by Kojima XD

Meat chants always a win

Athena saved her minion!

Josh Barnett looks like a leaner Brock Lesnar don't he?

Moxley joining on commentary, showing he's well after the concussion too

I think that's an open invitation to Bloodsport for Claudio

Well, you can tell that Nick Wayne has trained with Darby, mans is bumping

Caster already going for the tentacle porn diss

Sounds like JR is open to scissoring

Main Card

MJF wearing as many belts as he has initials

Picking the right person to massage his shoulders

Alas no tag partner in the corner for Max

Dutch always has a great Bossman Slam

Some Guerrero tactics there, with some added pantomime by the audience

And he hits the bodyslam! The Seattle Stampede

MJF has put over a bodyslam, a double clothesline and a dropkick (Kangaroo Kick) which is proof that with enough charisma any move can be put over

Props to the dude in full Jeff Hardy cosplay

Shibata starting low like Inoki did vs Ali

Thesz drop early just like Inoki took it early vs him for his second ever NJPW match (first was vs Simon Gotch)

Uraken kicked out at 1!

Eddie again winning with the Powerbomb, he meant what he said to Kawada

Dang that crack as Statlander socked Julia

And Julia does have one hell of a moonsault

Brody having to carry his goth daughter back down the ramp

Reminder Julia Hart is 22 in November; younger than Hayes, Stratton, Dragunov, Dominik, Jade, Statlander, Anna, HOOK and more, she is a talent

Starting the 4 way with an International Title preview

and then OC tagging in??

Gunns doing the New Day 'both legal men' attempt

HOOK sold that superkick really well too

"It's always in their hometown huh?"

Nana gets his dance in

Serve remains that guy, so clean

Ooof, taking a trick out of Penta's book eh, Killshot?

Vicious discus lariat there from Hanger

The JML Driver is great too

Mox back on Commentary, he's one flirtation with Excalibur away from being Regal

Ricky's rope walk is just effortless

Ah poor Mox, he can't help but curse it's native to his vocabulary

Seahawks colours for Bryan

Moxley's passion for wrestling is shining through a lot in commentary, if he could control the cussing he could easily be an all timer play by play commentator

It also juxtaposes Nigel McGuinness' anti-Bryan vendetta

Bryan practically walked out of that Romero Special

Hitting the Itoh special with the rollover half crab

GOODNESS that Dragon Screw

I think his head was already fucking kicked in sheesh

That certainly was a technical masterclass, and it doesn't feel like we're done

I'm gonna say it too, give Bryan the IWGP World title. I mean it, he's beaten Okada and ZSJ, he could beat SANADA at like Sakura Genesis or New Year's Dash, have a little run with it, do the G1 and then drop it at Forbidden Door and then he's completed all his career goals

Mox's genuine surprise as he thought Demetrius Johnson was gonna wrestle Kenny Omega XD

I mean that Last Supper artwork is...definitely something

Geez starting with Omega/Ospreay?

People want Takeshita/Ibushi, that tells you how elevated Takeshita has been

Callis trying to contribute to increating the stretch

Ibushi now joining Suzuki in 'he does what he wants', joining the Sex Gods pose

'You still suck' chants because Sammy still pulled off a picture perfect Shooting Star Press

Jericho invoking Omega in the Not Even One kickout

Murder Ibushi activated!

That is the best Ibushi has looked in AEW so far, hopefully he gets 100% for Takeshita

Dang just let Dax and Davis slap each other for 10 minutes, Davis has wrestled WALTER I know he has it in him

I've seen enough, I don't just need 10 minutes I need a full tournament of big beefy men slapping man meat; Dax, Davis, Keith Lee, Shane Taylor, Wardlow, Luchasaurus, Butcher, Brody King, Joe, Hobbs, Miro, Brian Cage, Big Bill, etc. let them all fight, give us the whole Buffet

Darby and Christian have done so much work that'll go understated in restoring the TNT title, it's main eventing a PPV!

Also if anyone can will it into existence we need Christian to start calling himself the Turtle Neck Titan, you know because Turtlenecks but also TNT

Hoisted by his own petard, blinded by the turtle neck

I mean Nick Wayne's mom is hot you gotta shoot your shot

Well that is for sure a Darby Allin bump, right on the steps twice over

Frog Splash onto a stretcher!

And a Killswitch on the canvas boards!

Scorpion Death Drop and Coffin Drop on the boards only for two

Nick Wayne heel turn

You think you know him? Adam Copeland is All Elite! And he brought Metalingus with him

He was so excited he glided through the smoke!

Edge, Christian and Sting all in the same ring what year is it? what timeline is it? WHAT IS IT???

Conclusion

Well that was a lot of fun.

Compared to No Mercy it was perhaps marginally better for me, again this could be due to being more in the loop with the storylines but stuff like the trios match, the main event, Swerve vs Hangman, the ultimate tekkers match it just clicked. Not a bad match on the card too, though I was rooting for Aussie Open to win, but Bucks/FTR IV will still be great. Plus I still wanted to see Statlander body slam Brody.

I do hope Fénix is okay, he disappeared from the 4-Way and he's the International champion, don't want back to back injury-induced title changes after all. But it was good to see Moxley just out there enjoying himself on the side, probably won't ever get to do it again mind you given all the cussing but still, did elevate the matches.

We've got intriguing directions too; Swerve needs to get somewhere with that W over Hangman (world title? I mean I kinda like Jay White for it, International Title? Maybe too soon), Claudio and Bryan have extended rematch invitations and you know Ricky ain't done with the BCC (still though I wouldn't put him in the BCC, Garcia should have that spot), even the Zero Hour did some development with Billie and Athena's dynamic.

So yeah, probably not better than All In and All Out but still pretty damn good, Inoki would be proud.

Match of the Night: I mean it's the Ultimate Battle of Epic Tekkers right? Hard to really say any match was better than that wrestling-wise. The Main Event is a close second with the drama. Best Entrance: Julia Hart gets this one just ahead of Adam Copeland's worst kept secret, not many flashy entrances in this show, in fact I think OC/Hook and Jericho didn't even get entrances. Best Attire: Again, not many here, most of them were kinda subtle so I'm gonna give it to Swerve so I can give him props somewhere. Best Performance: Tie for Bryan and Zack, masters of their craft, not much else you can say. Spot of the Night: Because Christian dropping Darby on the steps was messy and scrappy, it's Bryan's Dragon Screw that just looked so vicious like I'm sure I saw his foot facing another direction.

Domesticity meme, 9, 36?

Nuts, I should have glanced down the line! I just answered 9 here, so for you I'll do 6 and 36.

6. do they get married (or equivalent)?

Yes indeedy! Barring plot device in various fics, with the WIP being the current and most egregious offender, they get married right around the time Leda is born. Neither of them particularly needs the formality, though Hawke is very fond of being Fenris's wife; instead it's a more practical concern regarding Leda. Given that Hawke is incapable of a quiet and peaceful life, and that an early death is highly likely for at least one of them, they wanted the legal protection for Fenris in case something happened to Hawke.

While neither they (nor I) think it's likely someone in power would care enough about a random half-elf child to try to to take it from its widower father, I can definitely see someone caring that much about the Champion's child. Fenris could certainly kill anyone who tried to take her, and I don't doubt he would, but after a murder or two you suddenly have a whole new fugitive situation on your hands, except this time with a motherless baby thrown into the mix. Not exactly the most stable environment in which to raise a child, and I think Fenris would do a heck of a lot to give his kids everything he never had.

So: it would be better for Leda if her father's legal marital status were unquestioned; therefore, they get married. Really have a good time with it, though. (I always thought a small Chantry wedding in the country somewhere would be most fitting, but a big party at Skyhold could happen later.)

36. who cusses more?

HA! Hawke cusses by far more on a day to day basis, but it's like pellet scattershot from a toy gun, lots of little stings without much skin breaking. Fenris curses more rarely, but when he does it's with an elegant, lethal vehemence that does as much damage in one blow as all Hawke's daily mutterings put together.

They're basically like walking versions of those maps of precision vs. accuracy. Hawke on the left, Fenris on the right.

I think he takes pride in it, honestly.

Use Your Words

I was tagged by @littlefeatherr

A phrase/quote/word you find funny: “Oh, look at that. I’ve been impaled.” -Olaf (Frozen) This is exactly how I respond to injury.

Some of your favorite SFW words: Catawampus, Tiddlywinks, Whippersnappers, Shenanigans, Pollywogs, Helter-skelter

Favorite cusses, NSFW or otherwise: Outside of writing, I don't usually curse, but my go to is Fuck or Cunt or "Fuck you in the cunt you bitch ass motherfucking dumb whore". Usually if I'm to the point of swearing, most of what I'm going to say is curses, usually growling under my breath because I'm in public trying to fix a machine. 😅

What language do you speak? English, French, ASL, some German, Russian, Chinese, and Japanese, Latin, and Arabic.

Favorite words in language(s) other than your first: Blitzkrieg, IDK, really, it's all about how the words sound to me. Etoile, mourir, humanitas, 森林, etc.

Movies with subtitles on or off? On. Side note: it grinds my gears when whoever translated the script for subtitles translates incorrectly. I can't tell you how many times I've watched a French tv show or movie and the English subtitles are completely wrong. 😬 Like, sir, you've just changed a major plot point that messes up the entire story!!! Also, censorship. If the character says a curse in their language, use the curse in the subtitles. Goddamn.

Books you've read/listened to the most times: 魔道祖师 (I may have hyper-fixated on all her books).

Do you listen to songs in other languages? Remember, we are all brothers. Hakkerskaldyr.Translation Galgaldr.Translation Norupo.Translation Vivre à en crever Latin cover of Green Day LOL Mando'a counts right?

Do you express yourself better with words, images or something else? I don't believe I'm good at expressing myself. I'm vague, and the truth is often implied because I always think of something else/more information after the fact.

Do you talk more or less when you're nervous? Mute.

How do you pronounce February? Feb-u-ary. When I'm trying to write it I have to say to myself "feb-rew-ary".

What kind of accent do you have? To make it easier for you to picture, it's a Boston accent, but around here we resent being lumped together with people from away. The more angry I am, or if I'm not at work, the more obvious it gets LOL. Most of the time, my accent is neutral (sometimes called Broadcast English, like you hear some newscasters using). But if you make me mad 😂 oh boy. Here, this is what I sound like when I'm angry/at home/with friends. This is what I try to intentionally sound like professionally. You can even see a bit of the difference in the first video of the lobsterman vs. the interviewer. (Also, warning for the first video if lobster death upsets you.)

If you literally had to eat your words, what would they taste like? I don't know. Cinnamon rolls?

Tagging anyone who wants to do this. I'm avoiding Tumblr a bit today to avoid TBB spoilers. HAHA

We've all heard the story. The hypothetical question. About the deadly snail that is slowly making his way towards you to kill you and you have so much money what would you do? Well what if the snail was a lobster. There is no money for survival. He just wants your head. Squishing between his claws. He's a very large lobster. That is what we call a mortal enemy.

Why would Shlagdathumm want to end a life? For the sheer pleasure. Star crossed lovers. Because noods were promised but hot sauce was delivered instead.

at this time dragon eats hot sauce fire licks across the screen, Shlagdathumm makes a screaming sound like lobsters do when put in hot water

NARRATOR

Or perhaps it's something much more simple like their imortal lives are linked and what the one does hurts the other. I don't know, It's not like theres a script or something

Call an ambulance or jump scare is redeemed. Dragon screams. The Shlagdathumm suddenly crashes. Loud bang
