#cuz they're still under investigation

[smile-files]

the alliance........ from left to right: baseball, suitcase, nickel, and balloon!

(i was trying to find a way to represent balloon's name and i came upon a lucky medium: given how he was a jerk in ii1 and nickel continued to see him as such, i imagine he'd just call him "bully" from then on, even after they became friends -- and it sounds like the word "balloon", no?)

IWTV S2 Ep3 Musings - Daniel & the Talamasca (SPOILERS)

I can see what the reviewers meant when they complained about the Talamasca & Daniel.

We start off with Daniel nervous AF, tryna keep tabs on all the mindscrewy shenanigans (at the sushi restaurant on his lunchbreak or whatever).

Today's... etcetc Cell phones, google -- Daniel, your handwriting effing sucks. San Francisco. Polynesian Mary's Playboy magazines as a doorstop? doorstep? |CLAUDIA| Mary's cab. Coke...etcetc. Alice. They'll come for me and Kate next--you bet your arse they will! XD THIS TIME I WON'T SAVE YOUR LIFE

He draws an arrow from Save Your Life up to Playboy--I assume cuz those are two incidents with Armand that took place in SanFran?

I really like the Omakase bit--

About how many risks Daniel's subjecting himself to under the whims of these vampires--but also about Daniel's hubris/arrogance breaking the rules of engagement by thinking he has any say over what they do and what he gets out of it, by stepping onto their turf. If you can't take the heat, GTFO their kitchen.

I'm only just now noticing the foreshadowed titles of Dan's books. 🤦 Burning & Blood--AMC swears they're hilarious.

OK, Raglan's been stalking Daniel's career just like Louis did. So my early suspicion about Daniel breaking the NDA was right.

Which is SO EFFING STUPID OF HIM. They're gonna find out! Loumand's literally drawing out this giant tragedy about what happens when vampires--Armand, specifically--are LIED to, and you're gonna pull this mess on them!? You're not even being SUBTLE!

AGREEMENT.pdf--Daniel, you in danger girl.

Raglan, stop tryna gas Dan up b4 they put him off commission permanently. He's no body-snatching psychic CROOK like you.

Get this nosey bish offa my dang screen.

Oof, right in the Devil's Minion feels. U_U

O__O WOAH!? OK, so aside from Dan (played by EB, a white Jew, along with JK) throwing shade at Caucasian European Israelis (which we been knew), he's implying that Armand & Louis might be persons of interest in the UAE by the Israeli gov't & assassins, esp. cuz of their ties to powerful people. But it's funny cuz that's the exact same thing Lou asked about him.

So Dan's telling the sushi patrons there's Israeli spies/assassins crawling around Dubai--STOP, b4 you get that place John Wick'd! XD

Not MI6. 😭 I said JOHN WICK, not JAMES BOND. XD

Raglan's gone full rogue then--if he was still working for the Talamasca he'd have darn near unlimited funds--they got that dirty TEMPLAR money. 💰💰💰

Yeah, and they don't actually call the Talamasca by name in the ep itself--only in the Insider interviews the producers give.

Daniel, why TF are you talking SO EFFING LOUD, when Raglan's whispering, tryna act like he's on the phone NOT talking to you in case y'all ARE being bugged. 🤦 SUBTLETY, my guy. What kinda investigative journalist are you?

I'm starting to suspect they're not gonna do the rockstar!Lestat, and instead this stupid Great Conversion's gonna be what wakes up Akasha/Amel, when their blood/consciousness gets stretched way too thin with all these new vamps being made.

To attempt an interview...? I believe that. We already know Marius & Lestat stalked Talamasca members for decades upon decades. Ain't no way NO vampire ever tried getting close to humans & talk about their lives to someone out of loneliness or something. Esp. the ones not attached to the European covens & all their stupid Great Laws.

Rest in Preternaturalism, Raymond Gallant.

BLENDERS! XD But this is THE most Anne Ricean answer imaginable, cuz everyone lost their ish when she had her vamps flying around with GPS-trackable cellphones in their pockets as they KILLED people. Rookie mistake. 😂

Armand was on a cellphone in S01E07, and he is LITERALLY married to his iPad, so PLEASE, sir. 🙄

There's Santiago's COMPLICIT speech coming back. Ain't no moral high-ground here!

And I figured Armand/AMC was gonna pin it on AMC!Lestat, and his jaded version the Savage Garden.

Armand says technology distracts humans from vampire crimes, but what's distracting vampires from psychic/Talamasca crimes, huh?

ISTG these are the laziest vamps I've ever seen; they care so much about their privacy & security, but aren't reading Dan's mind at all? I hope one of them just casually name-drops Raglan or catches Daniel in the act or something.

Raglan said Daniel's laptop was "comically vulnerable," and uploads a bunch of data files on it from the Bibliotheca Talamasca bestiary/archives--WHY? To help show Daniel he's helpful & trustworthy?

RJ: Omakase? Louis: The conversation was easy and flirtatious.... Armand: And combative. Louis: And combative, yes. Daniel: Arguing as foreplay. RJ: Peruse at your leisure.

I hate this effing show. 🙇🙇🙇

[moonlight-tmd]

How would the Bumblebee ships work in the Shattered Glass reality.

I'm not too sure what Shattered Glass is but i suppose i can try?

I've seen some takes on that by others- most often i see Bee being depicted as a total opposite of himself so i will go with this too. Bee's usual happy-go-lucky, overconfident attiture gets switched up with a shy and fearful one. He's a scaredycat and always always does what he's told to do to avoid the punishment.

I imagine his team is not very nice to him, they're the main reason he's suffering. Bulkhead isn't even friends with him and basically got stuck with him during boot camp and somehow his job. Optimus is mostly silent and ceases any insupordination with violence. Ratchet has been kicked out for unethical practice on patients and still does it sometimes on folks that aren't his team. At least Sari is your typical hurt emo kid that got mistreated by her father, so she and bee kinda stick together. But still, you can imagine ProwlBee isn't very happy; Prowl is an arsonist and a manipulator, he speaks softly only to get you to follow him and then stab you in the back. He saw Bee as an easy target and pretends to love him when in reality he only sees him as another one of his toys. Bee is very naive and believes everything he says, even if he physically hurts him he always comes back cuz he thinks this is the best he can get.

Now, since the Autobots are the evil ones, Decepticons are the heroes that will save the yellow princess. ShockBee; Shockwave was send to spy on the Autobots under the disguise of Longarm. He wasn't very good at being mean or not showing much emotions which got him some suspicious looks. Then he met Bee, the little bot whose Spark was nearly literally pouring out of him from sadness and suffering. He talked to him and they kept in contact in secret, but then after he got assigned to the repair crew, Optimus found his little communicator and broke it and beat him up. Longarm suspected somethign has happened to he volunteered to find him and Megs. And sure enough, Earth was the place. He was so happy to see Bee- but Bee seemed to not even want to look at him, not talk at all. He tried his best to get him to open up again but to no avail... even so the final straw was pulled when he saw Bulkhead trying to punch him dead while they were investigating some Decepticon signal (cuz Shockwave couldn't sit still in the autobot mode). He jumped out and nearly offlined said giant and took Bee with him, all while making sure the big bot saw him and would say he was kidnapped instead of a traitor. After that Bee was brought to Decepticon base to keep safe. Shockwave revealed himself to be his good friend Longarm and Bee, after a long period of holding back, caved in and told him everything while being held in a hug. From then on Shockwave takes care of Bee and teaches him all the fun stuff he gets to do now that he's not with his team anymore. Sari also gets pulled with him once Megatron onlines again and she can have the caring and supportive father she always wanted.

Now onto BlitzBee, the very popular choice; Bee and Blitz don't meet until they are on Earth, although i think Shockwave wold tell Blitz things from his job for fun therefore he learns about the existance of the little yellow mini. Blitzwing is very much different- his Icy (Joy) personality is very cheery and positive if not a little unsettling, Hothead (Scaredycat) is worried 24/7 and will cry if you yell at him, and Random (Blunt) is the serious strategic deadpan of the three, mostly in charge while in combat. He's also the one that will hold emotions to let them out in a gruesome way on either an object or the enemy. I imagine he met Bee while he was out at night and caught the scout crying alone,he managed to talk with him and noticed all the various dents he had on him. They became friends rather quickly and before either knew they fell in love. But just a couple of meetings after the confession Bee has disappeared, he didn't come to the spots neither he was out while they fought. Something must've happened to him and he knew it. But then he saw him sitting there in the cons' medbay being treated by Blackarachnia after the fight and he could not have been happier. Turns out Shockwave has found him imprisoned deep within the autobot base and took him from there, the autobots said he was kidnapped by decepticons which wasn't true so he looked. Bee told him that the others somehow found out about their relationship and self-sentenced him to tortures instead of typical death penalty for treason. Blitzwing listened while set on his blunt face and only cradled his little love when he was all good to go and rest. Bee and Blitz are by all means the cutest couple there could every be, Blitz is so very caring and does everything to make sure Bee feels safe and loved. And since i can't leave the child out of this, Blitz flies and rescues Sari from the tower, upon both Bee's and Megatron's request. They're all one big happy family.

I think you could make BlitzBee and ShockBee into one with this but i won't go into it further. Anywho, hope this was what you were looking for!

Hi again! :3 I hope you're still open for drawing Pressure prompts cuz I think I got a few in mind now~

https://www.tumblr.com/ghastigiggles/758820297344417792/i-imagine-if-you-tickle-sebastian-by-the-tail-his?source=share

I really wanna see a part 2 to the above. There's about two different scenarios I thought up for this (you can pick either one). Either A) Audie quickly gauges from Fish Boy's reaction that his tail fin is a lot more sensitive than he might've admitted to it being, and they take full risk opportunity to tease him for it, tickling it more purposely. Or B) Do a reverse version where Seb is curiously examining Audie's features (mainly the thick blubbery skin & flesh around their abdomen) which ends up tickling them a lot~ Accidentally at first but then... ;-)

[ conceeeept ]

I ran out of drawing energy tonight but I genuinely did wanna build on this. Like I warned y'all earlier, this ended up just kind of being an exploratory piece than tickles, but they're still there if you squint.

Never ask me for anything again /nsrs /j

ouroboros

“You’re really pushing your luck.”

“2000 data and,” They pressed, “You can check mine out, too.”

“I don’t want to.”

“Liar.”

“... 3000.”

“2500.”

“Fine. But –”

“You call the shots. Wouldn’t have it any other way!”

So that, long and short, was how Audie ended up seated against the wall behind Sebastian’s tail, practically being crushed by the weight but not seeming to mind too much. Anyone else, and he might’ve actually finished the job – but the Assets were different from the Expendables, and he’d been patient enough until now to know they’d respect a firm no when he’d truly had enough.

Too sweet for their own good – but in this case, he couldn’t truly complain. He’d take their hand gently running across the length of his scales over scalpels and vinyl gloves any day. 

Not that it stopped him, of course. But still.

There was a mutual curiosity he was interested in exploring, at least passively. They’d both been subject to very similar experiments and changes, though the result was certainly wildly different between them. At least they had their legs, he mused somewhat bitterly, though he knew it still came at a cost.

“Your tail must be crazy strong,” They commented, applying a little pressure with the heel of their palm and just missing a knot in the muscle he hadn’t realized was there. He fought to swallow a groan at that, his fins twitching; “You’re built like a brick house under there.”

“It has its uses. Carries all the stock, after all.”

Sebastian turned his gaze upon the scattered straps and belts and supplies on the ground, silently bemoaning the process of re-attaching them all he’d have to go through once Audie’d had their fill. The asset themself giggled softly, giving his tail a gentle pat as they moved downwards.

“It’s cool! Yours is smoother than I thought it would be, too.”

“Seriously?”

“Yeah! The way the light hits your scales, I thought it’d be more bumpy.”

He decided to withhold the fact that his scales would stiffen up underwater for now – had to keep some things a mystery, after all – and simply rolled his eyes, leaning a shoulder against the wall nearest to him and watching them with his arms crossed. Admittedly, it was a little endearing how fascinated they seemed to be. 

It was almost enough to distract him from how much he despised his new form.

Almost.

“Are you done yet, or…?”

“Do you want me to be done?”

They met his gaze evenly, and he could only huff in reply, the tip of his tail twitching in their hands. Yes, but no, was the honest answer – and fuck that. Regardless, Audie took his silence as ongoing permission, and continued onwards with their investigation.

More than once, their claws dragged in just such a way to prompt his tail to jerk – more than once, he’d choked on a snort and cast them a withering look that they either ignored or missed. The sensation was more annoying than anything, yet still sent nervous butterflies through his system.

And then their hands were on his fins, and his breath hitched – barely-perceptible, thank God, but still embarrassing. Their thumbs gently pressed down where the flesh of his fins met the scales of his tail, tapering into either texture, and that almost felt nice.

Their claws trailing over the delicate skin, however, was not something he could tolerate for long – and with a stifled snort, his tail jerked. Audie squeaked with annoyance as he smacked them in the face. An unintended attack, granted, but still…

Deserved.

“T-Time’s up, knock it off,” He chimed quickly, pulling his tail off of them entirely and willing his gills to relax where they’d flared up from the nerves. God, that would’ve sucked immensely. Audie pouted, but allowed him the opportunity to call it, standing up and stretching with a groan of their own. 

“Alright. My turn, then – how d’you wanna do this?”

It took a little thought and finagling, but the two of them settled for letting them sit on his tail and lean against his body, their back to his front. Their tail curled up between their legs like a pool toy, and they playfully drooped the fins over their own head before allowing him to take the limb in his hands.

Just like his, Sebastian could feel the muscle underneath – powerful and developed, though the joints themselves felt stiff as he manipulated the limb. Audie seemed to wince when he pressed down, and he grunted – concerned, against his better judgement.

“Doesn’t hurt,” They assured without further prompting; “I mean – it does, when the meds wear off, but it’s good for now. It’s just – the bone problem… My tail was grafted on.”

“Mm. That’s right… You mentioned.”

They hadn’t. But they overshared so much that they didn’t remember that. He, meanwhile, remembered reading their file. 

“Is it numb right now?”

“No… Soft touches don’t feel like much, with the painkillers n’ all.”

A bitter twinge of mild jealousy sprouted in Sebastian’s chest – at least they wouldn’t be having an embarrassing, dumb reaction – though he was quickly proven wrong when a bit of pressure applied on either side of their tail made it twitch and prompted a strangled noise from them.

“Uh?”

“Uh.”

A beat, and he snorted, tilting his head down at them as he let up on the squeeze.

“... You good?”

“Kinda? It felt like – you know when someone pinches that point at the back between your shoulders and neck?”

Well. It’d been literal decades, but – “Sure.”

“That - hhHAAH, hey!”

Sebastian chuckled to himself as he pressed down again, and Audie whined, pressing back against him as their tail jerked in his hand – woefully helpless, what with their size difference. With a second hand, he experimentally ran a claw of his own over their fin, pressing down just enough to prompt a soft squeal.

Audie’s back arched, and they kicked lightly at the new addition to their torment, shaking their head.

“Nonononono that’s so bad that’ssobadstop!”

“Geeze, you’re gonna break the sound barrier at this rate…”

He longed to push his own luck a little – but courtesy given was courtesy returned, at least, and Audie hadn’t done him wrong. So, begrudgingly, he relented, and Audie slid off him to plop on the ground, curling their tail around their body and holding it close. Sebastian craned his neck to grin down at them, amused.

“So much for not being sensitive, huh?”

“Shut it. As if I didn’t catch your reaction earlier.”

“... Touche. I won’t take advantage if you won’t.”

“Deal.”

That deal would, inevitably, break – but not before they helped him get all the belts and supplies back on. Hopefully.

Shorthand AU Masterpost

So my brainrot has gotten so bad that I currently I have 5 AUs for The Idiot Cowboys. At this point they might as well be OCs because this is....... Ridiculous. I have never had this happen with any other series I've been into.

All of them are still WIPs, and anything is subject to change because I have no idea what I'm doing. (pic to break up the cut)

-Vampire/Werewolf (this one you already know); I use BBFF for short when referring to this. BBFF is short for Bark Bark Flap Flap, because I am garbage at naming things, lol (Masterpost here, and I will also post a short and simple summary comic I made for it when I get the chance)

This only happened cuz of the amount of research I've had to do to scientifically justify the supernatural elements in my mind. (there is a lot of science nonsense in here, ESPECIALLY around the vampire mechanics, believe me)

This is also a slowburn from hell, cuz they are both Very Bad at dying, to the point where they through the decades up to Near Future (for those not in the fandom, it's a wacky setting with robots and psychic powers and basically a kaiju fight. Y'know, just how the people in 1994 imagined 2014 would be) and they both are intended to have unique designs for that era too. (only MD is designed for that so far, will post later.)

---

-Fae AU; (I call it Lil Guys AU cuz again, awful with names) still set in the wild west, but it's kinda borrowercore with somewhat darker pepperings of Home Safety Hotline in terms of lore.

I'm working on a summary for that that I will post when it's ready, but it also has a lot of magic mechanics to it. However at this point it's mostly ramblings and whatever bullshit I doodled (and there is A LOT OF IT at this point, because this is the main one i have been scared of posting), and a lot of fic that I've not posted anywhere because I am TERRIFIED of sharing my writing, lmao.

Their relationship moves a lot faster in this one, probably because they're both facing The Horrors™ together that are under the surface of the fantasy facade, and they have to trust each other to survive. (Mostly because they are both silly little rat guys) This one is very much high risk, high return in terms of their relationship.

---

-Duende AU; This one, I literally stuck them in my own OG setting with my OCs (for all 5 of you who know it, it's Yukure's series, which i do need to post more of the lore for, sorry lol)

Essentially, Sundown is a normal guy/former sheriff due to being a suspect in an Unfortunate Event that befell his town in 2012 (The year which the main catalyst occurs in the series), but he was acquitted and sorta "honorably discharged" since he couldn't ever really face his job again (the investigation and trial dragged on for 5 years up to 2017, where the series takes place)

And here, MD is his "Duende" (sorta like being haunted by a ghost/having a Familiar, but they're also functionally a parasite on a host)

They have a similarly antagonistic relationship here, but it's a bit different here because Mad Dog thinks he's pretty much a normal, charming, handsome, witty, suave bounty hunter, who's not sure why he got stuck with some guy with ptsd and depression, and why he suddenly has weird cool powers, and now he's coping with essentially being a ghost/incorporeal.

---

-Vaudeville AU; this is not so much an AU as it is a continuation of canon

Essentially, MD finally catches Sunny after years of goin' at it, collects the bounty money, feels aimless and and horrible because he has no purpose in life. (a core factor here being a sense of loss because he knows he couldn't beat Sunny at his prime, he had to wait til age caught up with him, and he's realizing how much of his own life he spent on it and is Going Through It)

So he breaks Sunny out of jail, talk out their problems, and live the rest of their lives with the bounty money hiding from the law. (fake names, new aliases, everything)

The Vaudeville part comes in cuz MD eventually buys a theater with the reward money, and the setting takes place in the early 1930s as a LAL fan chapter which I keep meaning to write. (These two are really just minor characters in that setting but it's fun anyway lol)

They're in their 70s at this point, but they're still kickin!

---

-Roleswap; this is pretty much just what it says on the tin. If Mad Dog was the outlaw and Sundown was the bounty hunter.

I think MD is wanted for (allegedly) burning down a theater that he was performing in (in truth, the owner needed insurance money and blamed it on him)

This one in particular is fascinating, mostly because Sundown isn't dead inside.

He still has light in his eyes and people to protect. They survived the attack, but he still left town to draw attention away from them, and hunts bounties to survive. (he sends the money to them)

This one is probably the least developed, but still open ended for shenanigans. (I REALLY wanna make the designs for it too...)

The Legend of Vox Machina Liveblog: Episode 2

I just finished the second episode of TLOVM season 3, and this breakdown got long.

(I reference the campaign again some, so if you don't want spoilers for that, maybe stay clear from my breakdown)

(Breakdown under the cut)

Starting off immediately with Orthax and Ripley is exactly what I wanted holy shit. I need to know if Percy's okay

holy shit is it just me or does Orthax look even more terrifying here? because he does to me oh my gods.

"You left it a whisper, but that whisper found me" Is the word choice of "whisper" intentional? Because I'm just thinking of the Vestige rn

Okay, that shot of Percy with Ripley walking away reflected in his glasses is SO GOOD. WHY DOES IT GO SO HARD

And Ripley admittedly looks really badass with Orthax coming up behind her like that (it's mostly bc of Orthax tho) And the delivery of her last line there? So good

I've talked about it before but HOLY SHIT THE INTRO GOES SO HARD

THE MUSIC IS AMAZING

THE ANIMATION

THE GODDAMN STORYTELLING HOLY SHIT

Gods above it just makes me so much more hyped for the whole show omg

Keyleth immediately blaming it on Raishan, lol. In character

Oooo, the idea of using Mythcarver to find Ripley + Percy. I don't think they ever did that in the campaign, though I might be mistaken lol

Vax amping up his flirtiness with Gilmore to get him to help, heh, I don't think that'll work

Oh, never mind it did work

OOOOOO, DESGUISE SELF, COOL!

Omg I turned on subtitles for when Gilmore was speaking Marquesian, and it actually had the translations! That's so cool!

And ah, yes. The twins sneaking in together. Honestly? The best two to go in

Aaaaannndd now Ripley monologuing about spreading the guns around Exandria. Perfect

Okay, but they're actually making Ripley's point seem somewhat understandable. Like, I get where she's coming from, but she's def not seeing the whole picture about the guns. Like, if everyone in Exandria had one, it would be, like Percy said, chaos. Plus I still absolutely despise her.

OOOOOO, RIPLEY WANTS THE VESTIGES AS A POWER SUPPLY

I honestly never thought too much about why she wanted them in the campaign, but this is interesting!

And now we're back to the twins!

Honestly, a little sad we didn't get the absolute madness that was Vox Machina trying to cover their tracks at the murder scene, as we saw in the campaign, but I def understand why they didn't. Plus, this is really interesting to see the twins investigating!

OMG CLASP MENTION

"Oh, I'm Vax, I was in a thieves' guild, I'm so cool" "seven days a week" gotta love the sibling teasing and banter between the two of 'em! XD

OOOP, THE OTHER GUARDS MIGHT BE CATCHING ONTO GILMORE, FUCK

Poor Gilmore, man. If the spell he used is the same as Disguise Self in D&D, then he was waiting out there for almost an hour for the twins.

OH NO, A GUARD SPOTTED THEM, FUCK

OMG KAYLIE! YAY

And Scanlan is such a proud dad watcher her too, aww. (I doubt she'll appreciate it much tho)

"That's my daughter up ther" OMG HE'S SO SO PROUD I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH

DOCTOR DRANZEL! Everyone give it up for Dr. Dra!

NICODRANIS MENTION?

And we're once again at Ripley. Of course

OH FUCK MASS PRODUCED GUNS POWERED BY VESTIGES? FUCK NO

"Once the weak rise up, what's to stop the oppressed from becoming oppressors" THANK YOU PERCY, THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING

"That's why I need you Percival, you understand humanity far more than I" Yeah, bitch, it's cuz you aint got much left

PERCY NO DON'T SAY YES DON'T SAY IT. PERCY NO.

PERCY YOU BETTER BE PLANNING SOMETHING I SWEAR TO THE DAWNFATHER I WILL REACH THROUGH THE SCREEN AND BEAT YOUR ASS IF YOU HELP HER

omg the rest of the party's at a Gilmore rip-off. Why is that so funny?

"I'm sorry about earlier, I just-" "Didn't believe me? No one does." KIKI BABY NO

Keyleth, stop lying, it's clearly not fine, you need to talk to someone about this!

Vex worrying about Percy, ah! My heart can't take it!

OMG SHE CARES SO MUCH FUCK GLINTSHORE IS GONNA HURT SO FUCKING BAD FUCK

Vax clearly SEES how much his sister cares for Percy, you can see it so clearly on his face.

Omg, is that the githyanki skull over where Grog was looking?

Oh, Grog playing along with the kids, he's so freakin' cute, I love him so much.

Okay, but Grog is actually lowkey really clever for asking the kids about that

Grog I adore you

OMG IT'S THE CLIP

IT'S THE CLIP THAT DROPPED THE SAME DAY AS THE MIGHTY NEIN SNEAK PEAK

I KNOW THIS SCENE

"There are times to talk and times to fight, but sometimes you've just gotta run" That's a really good quote by Pike

Holy shit what kind of armour do the guards have? damn that's cool

PLS DON'T GET ARRESTED GILMORE

FUCK HE GOT ARRESTED

Omg Vax is fucking Narruto runnign. First Percy, now him? lol

Aaaannnddd, now we're back to Scanlan & Kaylie. Say what you will about splitting the party, but it adds a lot of intrigue to a show like this!

"You're not making this easy on me are you?" "Did you make it easy on me and mum?" Scanlan, she's definitely got you there

Okay, so my first thought was don't mention the vestige, but if Kaylie found out later than she'd definitely be more upset he lied, so good job Scanlan!

Scanlan I swear to god if you run off because you're worried about being accused of being one of the "foriegners who killed someone", I will punt you. You CANNOT leave Kaylie again, I will actually reach through the screen to punt you, I'm warning you

Okay, it cut. He better not fucking run.

Percy, I will beat your ass later assuming you're not trying to play Ripley, but also I feel bad for him considering he has to listen to the demon that was in his head for several years talk about wanting his soul to the woman who literally tortured him. Cannot be easy

"That is very disconcerting" LITERALLY WHAT I'M SAYING

PERCY WHAT ARE YOU DOIJNG YPOU ABSOLUTE DUMBASS DONT WORK WITH THE BITCH

NEVER MIND I LOVE YOU PERCY KILL THE BITCH

Wait, the plate was damaged. OH MY GOD IS IT A FAKE?

OH FUCK ORTHAX AND RIPLEY (also the shot with Ripley holding Percy by the throat and Orthax curling above lowkey goes hard)

Ooooo, Ripley DID get the black and orange eye! Cool!

FUCK YEAH VEX SAVE YOUR MAN

COMING IN LIKE A BADASS I LOVE THIS WOMAN SO FUCKING MUCH

FUCK YEAH GROG

FUCK NO RIPLEY YOU BITCH

VOX MACHINA GET HER ASS

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH NO ONE SPEAK TO ME PERC'AHLIA HUG PERC'AHLIA HUG I'M GOIGN TO COMBUST

"I thought I'd lost you" "I'm here, Vex'ahlia" And what if I just died, huh? Because I love them so much (and also because Vex does lose Percy and there is a time where he won't be there, and fuck I'm sad again) AND OMG THE WAY THEY ARE HOLDING EACH OTHER I CAN'T I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

THE WAY SHE LEANS INTO HIS HAND

I'M GONNA DIE AND THEY ARE THE REASON I LOVE THEM

YES KIKI FREEZE RIPLEY'S ASS

OH FUCK I FORGOT ABOUT RIPLEY'S GUN. FUCK

VEX NOOOOO! OH NO OH NO OH NO OH FUCK

OH FUCK NO VEX GOT SHOT AND PERCY'S GONNA HAVE A GUILT COMPLEX OVER IT BEING HIS FAULT AND I SWEAR NO ONE BETTER BLAME PERCY OR I WILL RIOT

YES KEYLETH BREAKING OUT THE SUNLIGHT SPELL, QUEEN!

Oh fuck i thought Vex was hit in the shoulder not the chest FUCK (at least it's not lethal tho)

OH GOD THE MIXING OF RIPLEY'S AND ORTHAX'S VOICES IT'S JUST LIKE S1 WITH PERCY

Oh fuck VEX

Thank SARENRAE Pike was there my god. Also really good to get the bullet out, I was worried about that too

"You saved me. Twice." "What would you do without me?" *Cradles Perc'ahlia in my hands* No, you don't understand, I would die for them

FUCK THE GUARDS ARE HERE

THAT'S NOT GOOD

OMG J'MON SA ORD IS COMING IN, HELL YES! I cannot WAIT to see what they'll look like!

SCANLAN NO, DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE

Scanlan I swear if you get you're daughter arrested we will have words

Scanlan, if you keep acting like this, you're gonna make it worse. You can't be distracted for this conversation, man!

"The truth is, when I'm on stage, I'm golden. Straight fire. But when the lute goes down, I kinda... I don't know who I am." Oh Scanlan, the poor man. I appreciate that we're getting into these issues earlier, like, it's so clear throughout Campaign 1 that Scanlan struggles a lot with who he is, but hearing him actually really talk about it, especially before his Bard's Lament, is something I appreaciate.

SCANLAN, THEY AREN'T EVEN LOOKING FOR YOU

JUST TALK TO YOUR DAUGHTER MAN

OMG VOX MACHINA IS ABOUT TO MEET J'MON SA ORD, THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT (...let's just hope they don't fuck it up)

Percy, darling, don't blame yourself, please

OMG THE SMILE THAT PERCY GIVES VEX I CAN'T. AND THE SMILE SHE GIVES HIM. They are seriously trying to kill me with the amount of Perc'ahlia this season. AND IT'S THE SECOND EPISODE

I appreciate them showing Vex sensing J'mon, considering they are a dragon too.

OMG J'MON LOOKS SO GOOD

And them having (what I presume is) a pseudodragon is such a nice touch!

yeah, i don't think talking it out is gonna quite work Gilmore, but good shot!

Keyleth, honey, I love you, but I don't know if this is gonna help!

"Where you not here to steal them?" Oop. Caught red-handed. I Y'all better say that you were gonna ask or you're basically screwed.

Vax, you idiot.

Oh fuck, this is exactly the problem with Percy existing in Ank'harel at this time, Ripley is fucking things up. As she does

PERCY NO

I KNOW YOU'RE TRYING TO PROTECT EVERYONE ELSE BUT DARLING NO

Oh fuck and him saying "i take full responsibility" is him saying that he takes responsibility for Ripley and Orthax, because they were his problem first and in his mind he "let them" get here. Fuck

Vox Machina trying to convince J'mon of their collective innocence vs. Percy's raging guilt complex. Which will win?

Oh god, Vex's face. Oh no

THE TRANSFORMATION? WHAT THE FUCK

FUCK VEX'S FACE AS THEY'RE BEING DRAGGED OUT NO FUCK PERCY

Oh my GOD Scanlan are you shitting me? Did you get the fucking Sandkeg's Hide? Please tell me you didn't. This is a conversation to be SOBER

"I just wanna be in your wife, I mean life" Scanlan you are clearly too drunk for this

Scanlan. Man. Please. Good god, I feel bad for Kaylie because she has to deal with this.

Oh Kaylie, honey no, he does wanna change, he just doesn't know how yet.

Oh, I feel bad for Scanlan too. Fuck

Finally! Finally, Vox Machina found him!

Aw, Pike jumping in to protect him <3

Oh, poor Scanlan. He's really struggling rn, and I feel so bad because I know that it gets worse

Vex, I know you're worried, trust me, so am I, but c'mon, the man is struggling!

I'm onto Percy's next bit now. *chuckles nervously* what the fuck

OH FUCK THAT'S WHAT J'MON MEANT WHEN THEY SAID TRANSFORMATION

Oh Percy, darling, FUCK I'M GONNA CRY

OH FUCK WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING THIS IS SOME FREAKY SHIT GOING ON

OH GOD HIM SEEING VOX MACHINA FOR A MOMENT STOP MY HEART

Scanlan coming in clutch with the "OBJECTION" thank FUCK

Okay, but the guards picking him up by the arms and him staying exactly how he was is unreasonably hilarious

Oh god, he's still drunk. Fuck. This might go terribly

WAIT OH MY GOD WE'RE GETTING BURT REYNOLDS THE LAWYER NOW OH MY GOD YES

Using Mythcarver to prove Percy's innocence is actually GENIUS

Holy shit the animation when J'mon uses Mythcarver and their eyes light up and hair gets all flowy and shit goes HARD

OH FUCK ORTHAX SAW? FUCK

Can we all just say together THANK YOU SCANLAN

OH MY GODS THE LOOK THAT PERCY AND VEX SHARED

AND HER HOLDING HIS HAND

FUCK I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

Oh Scanlan, he still feels bad about how things went with Kaylie

OMG MORE FORGIVENESS TALK WITH PERCY AND VEX LETS GOOOO

"But I am to blame for what I made" I FUCKING CALLED IT. I KNEW THIS WAS HIS THOUGHT PROCESS

Also, can we talk about how beautiful this animation is? When it does the close up on Percy it looks SO GOOD

Like, LOOK AT THIS. THIS IS GORGEOUS

(yes I'm watching with subtitles, i wanna know what they say in Marquesian)

"And above all else, I just didn't want you to see me that way" PERCY DARLING, YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS TO MY HEART

OH MY GOD THIS SCENE IS BEAUTIFUL

I SIMPLY ADORE THEM

"I've been thinking long and hard about our options." "What'd you come up with?" "Nothin'. Just wanted you to know I'd been thinking" And this, everyone, is why I adore Grog strongjaw

I KNEW IT WAS A FAKE I FUCKING KNEW IT

MAGIC ITEMS THAT STRONG DON'T GET DAMAGED LIKE THAT, THEY DON'T

"I did the only responsible thing." Did you put the real one in the Hells?

"I hid it in a place beyond even Thordak's reach" It's the fucking Hells isn't it

"Are you familiar with the Hells of Despath?" I fucking knew it

WAIT ZERXUS? AS IN THE FIRST KNIGHT OF AVALIR DURING THE CALAMITY ZERXUS? HOLY SHIT? WHAT THE FUCK? OH MY GOD REALLY? PLEASE TELL ME THEY GOT LUIS CARAZO TO PLAY HIM PLEASE

OMG THE END CREDITS IS DRANZEL'S SONG

OMG IT'S ABOUT RUBY LAVORRE

I FUCKING KNEW IT

I ABSOLUTELY FUCKING KNEW IT

Okay is this Matt singing? Because oh my god if is he is seriously so good! Whoever it is, but still

Okay, so I absolutely LOVED the episode! It was only like 25 minutes but it felt so much longer! (and that might've been because I kept pausing to write this, but shhhh)

This was really good, and I really enjoyed seeing everyone throughout the episode, and seeing the changes they're making too! It's so cool to see and I'm definitely looking forwards to what comes next! (i am both terrified and excited at the prospect of Glintshore happening soon, oh my god)

I don't have time to watch another episode rn, but this one was so good!

[themonthaftermarch]

bffr

(Please don't send hate to OP)

I just don't understand the hate for Tyler y'all.

Did y'all forget he's half an outcast too?? He's the ultimate outcast unlike what Laurel referred herself to. Laurel used his mother as a weapon against him and probably lied about "what they did to your mother" if you even paid attention to the show for what it is. I'm may be overanalyzing his backstory because of course! He's a huge part of the plot and would you even get that hug if not for the Enid vs Hyde fight?

Y'all are missing the point of the show here.

Wednesday had feared she'll be responsible for the destruction of Nevermore and her enemy here is Crackstone and Laurel, two full-blooded normies. Tyler's forced to choose between which side but what happened to Hydes? Banned from Nevermore. And he's so obviously got manipulated and abused like did you overlooked that?

Wednesday investigates crimes with the help of others and one of those others is boom, Tyler. Would you still have Wednesday had Tyler not intervened or yes let's be clear, killed Rowan? Rowan was so sure on killing her too. Tyler said he "did a little digging" after they met. What does that imply? He's interested in her, gave her the police file about her father, even before he knows her purpose on Laurel's plan. (If Laurel already told him about the Addams family then why'd he search for it himself?) For fvck's sake he wanted leave Jericho (and Laurel) together with her.

Adaptating a creature from Jekyll and Hyde (that's literally about split personalities) into a new series like Wednesday, to me, is promising something more in the future like?? They're not gonna leave it at that and you can't go wrong with a Hyde as an adversary to a Wednesday Addams. Season 2 should explain more about Tyler's character cuz I don't think it's over, since we're shown that last scene of him transforming into Hyde. (tho I could be wrong?)

Lastly, idk what's so pressing about Wednesday kissing a male character like?? Trusting a person and leaning into a kiss is not something YOU think Wednesday would or SHOULD do?? But suddenly hugging a friend is something the show was solely focusing on?? My take is the initial Weathervane meeting and Tyler's attraction to Wednesday was real untill he's reminded of his purpose as a Hyde again. (he's forced under Laurel's commands I can't stress this enough). And Wednesday reciprocated his feelings and trusted him before that freaking jaw-dropping scene. Is that twist not something straight from a coming-of-age, supernatural, and horror tv series like Wednesday?

Sounds like op didn't even care what the show's about. But here we are.

Thinking about.... JeanLuc

One of the few straight ships that actually makes me cry bc of the angst around them. I've been thinking about them since yesterday but I couldn't write it down cuz i fell asleep lol. Enjoy~

Modern AU

Straight ship (if you dont like, scroll pass, tnx <3)

JeanLuc

kinda longer than my usual cuz i cant control myself

probably has typos and grammatical errors since i didnt check--

Jean and Diluc are coworkers (Jean as CEO and Diluc as her PA). Diluc was supposed to be CEO but he refused the offer when his father, Crepus died and his brother, Kaeya went MIA. Everyone thought that they did not get along well since Diluc speaks bluntly and is often misinterpreted as rude while Jean, although she’s strict, has a more gentle aura around her. Both of them are pretty much the talk of the town (office??) since they are both good looking. Jean’s toned body (thanks to pilates) and Diluc’s buff structure and "mysterious" background that makes every woman (and some men) in the office swoon.

EVERYONE talks about wanting to either sleep with them or date them, there's no in between. But what the office doesn't know is that they're married and have been for 5 years. Only their close friends and family knew of their union. They didn't wear their wedding rings because it was 2 sizes small (thanks to their musician friend) so instead they wore it around their necks. Also, Jean just kept her maiden name and Diluc, although he did try to talk her out of the idea, accepted her decision.

However, one day Jean overheard Donna say that she will ask Diluc out again during the end of the year ball. Normally Jean wouldn't be surprised by this but this was DONNA and that woman keeps on bugging her husband despite him politely rejecting her multiple times.

This caused Jean to be out of it which did not go unnoticed by Diluc, so he decided to confront her about it when he handed her her 5th coffee of the day. Jean confessed to him about Donna’s plan and Diluc just told her not to worry about Donna and that he’ll handle it when it happens. And, of course, Jean trusts her man so much it's sort of amazing (absolutely ridiculous as Lisa told her).

On the night of the ball, Donna approached Diluc and asked to speak with him alone at the balcony. Jean and Diluc locked eyes before Jean discreetly waved him off as she spoke with Eula. Around 10 minutes have passed and she still hasn't spotted Diluc. So she went off to the balcony and as soon as she arrived there, Jean saw that Donna lunged forward to kiss Diluc and had sadly succeeded. Just as Jean was about to angrily march at Donna, Diluc pushed the woman away firmly.

“I already told you I’m married and you need to stop this nonsense” he enunciated firmly. “I don’t see a ring on your finger! Please Diluc, stop resisting and lying to me,” Donna desperately wailed as she gripped his arm tight. “My wife would not take this action lightly anymore if you keep this up,” Diluc, once again, remarks harshly. Donna scoffed and then smirked, “She’s not even here. What are you gonna do? FaceTime her? I know you only have like 10 contacts there and none of them are of your wife’s!”

Jean decided to step up, “Actually, she’s gonna file a harassment report to the HR and put you under investigation.” she sharply denoted as she walked towards them. Her heels tapping against the tiled floor loudly despite the party ongoing inside. “I’d love it if you back away from my husband, Donna. I have tolerated you long enough because you are an excellent worker. However, my patience for you has become too thin for my liking and this is the last straw.” jean disclosed as she crossed her arms with her chin up. Donna looked at the both of them back and forth with her mouth opening and closing, resembling a fish, before she excused herself and left the two of them alone.

Diluc smirked at his wife, “well that confrontation took you 7 years,” he teased her "A bit earlier than I anticipated." Diluc chuckled. Jean blushed and looked away, “It's because I trusted your judgement and knew you are capable of handling this kind of situation. But today…. I’ve had enough.” Diluc held her hand and kissed her knuckles, staring at her blue eyes the entire time. “Does this mean that it’s time to let the company know?”

Jean bites her lip before nodding, “I would feel better if we did, yes.” Diluc chuckled at her before tidying his suit, “I believe I deserve some sort of reward for tonight’s hard work. I had to deal with that for what felt like an hour—”

Before he could finish his sentence, Jean grabs his face and kisses him. “the audience be damned” was the last thought diluc had before kissing her back.

Because tonight, he will be giving all his attention to his wife only.

"Also, I'm beginning to wonder what name you put under my number since Donna said--"

"A-ah well..."

[marcusrobertobaq]

I still don't know very well what CyberLife wanted with Connor's investigation in particular, under the context they knew about deviancy. In this sense looks they sent Connor to discover what they already knew almost like a test just to be like "will he find out?".

But I assume wasn't the original idea Connor finding out CyberLife was doing something behind the curtains and that he was related to the deviant leader somehow (a key that enters later, not part of the original mission) unless ... it was something expected and almost intentional to test Connor's reason for deviancy: to test if it could be a reason Connor would turn against 'em - and in the end it is indeed a reason.

Following this theory the mission is quite simple: they wanna know what triggers deviancy and put an end to this. Would be weird they not knowing about it but I guess they wanna confirm? No fucking way they don't know androids got emotional capacity and emotional "shock" can cause deviancy, but maybe what type of emotional shock in detail.

Also following this theory it's a test for Connor too, as he constantly gets emotionally impacted by things thru his mission - likely on purpose, judging by how he doesn't deviate only cuz he doesn't go against Amanda's orders directly, they're mostly vague leaving Connor to decide based on what he thinks, it's almost a gamble or trusting he gonna make the "right" choice.

See how Amanda doesn't care about Connor's feelings until it starts to interfering directly, she also often tests if the manipulation tactics still work (things like making Connor feel proud of serving, making Connor think he's the one that can do the job or threatening to replace him), all testing what his responses gonna be - if they gonna be a lie or sincere, if he's really trying to let emotions aside or not, if his self-preservation is kicking in a compromising level or not etc.

In the end they expected Connor to get "compromised" and deviate, the same way they expected Connor to remain loyal even tho he got reasons to deviate.

But that's ONE thing. And the investigation? What they really wanted with the androids collected if they already had the information? To evaluate how Connor would deal with the hunt in the real deal?

If Connor already had field tests for specific purposes... Does it mean his field tests were not only about carrying autonomous function but also how his emotional capacity would behave? Well, I guess dude's emotional capacity now, on the real deal, is in acceptable levels at least to carry a mission and remain obedient. But the way they expected Connor to get compromised... Something tells me this ain't just about observing other deviant androids collected or reading Kamski notes 😂 if u know what i mean. We meet 51, after all.

Am I missing lore?

Critical Role, Campaign 3 Episode 80

Wait ... who is this? Are you being SUPERVISED at last, Samuel? Oh ... ah, I see ... yeah, this is gonna be a good one, clearly. XD Lie indeed! Yeah ... oh, THAT'S true? You really should be ashamed, Riegel ...

But seriously, that was one of his best skits to date ...

Sam (to Laura): "How come YOU get two?" Ashley: "Cuz she's the Merch Queen!" Laura (bright and innocent): "I had nothing to do with it."

So, final test, then ... where's this gonna go? And who will be the impostors in this game of ...

AMONG US?!!!

Aaaaaaaaaaah, it's decided BY CARD?!!! This is indeed a recipe for disaster. They're ALREADY all getting so worked up while Matt is clearly LOVING IT ...

One at a time now ... FURTHER panic ... glorious ... LOL

BATTLEMAP!!! Cue more clunky Sam plugs for Wizzkids!

Travis already thinks Marisha questioning Matt's mechanics is a sign she's a doppleganger trying to throw everybody off ...

And ROLL INITIATIVE?!!! Oh ... oh, that is interesting ...

Orym starts and Laura IMMEDIATELY starts probing at him ...

Matt: "This trust exercise is already going GREAT!!!"

At least Fearne seems to be Fearne, apparently ... XD

Liam: "Plant pubes." Matt instantly gives him a SCATHING look ...

Aaaaah! Angry bramble attack! Crap! Fearne, no! Hurt AND restrained!

Taliesin, as always, is already thinking FIVE MOVES AHEAD ... meanwhile Ashton to the rescue. And he Rages!

Some crazy quantum Barbarian craziness ensues! Taliesin loves it, he never gets to use Time. And now he has A PLAN ...

Laudna: "I love you, no matter WHAT form you're in." Imogen: "I feel SO SURE you're a doppleganger now."

Imogen Misty Steps to a specific tree, starts searching under it ... CRAP Investigation roll, Laura ...

FCG goes and heals Fearne ... Laura: "You wouldn't heal anybody yet!" Meanwhile he searches for signs of magic ... you're IN THE FEYWILD, SAMUEL!!!

Illusory vines? Hmmmm ...

Still wolfed out, Chetney clicks his Boots of Haste and immediately damn near runs himself into another angry bramble patch, barely dodges it ... oh, he runs RIGHT INTO a patch of purple flowers that spray him with FUCKING ACID!!! And then again JUST escapes another briar patch ...

Pate cannot tell Laudna if she's the real Laudna ... okay then ...

Sam: "What you looking for, Travis?" Travis: "Sweat?" Ashley: "All you're gonna find is conditioner." Laura: "He's SUCH AN ASSHOLE!!!"

Laudna has FOUND the thingie! Already ... impressive ...

Orym tries to get a true clue out of Fearne, but she can't remember. Orym: "I ... still think it's you!"

Ashley: "Is it my turn?" Matt: "Just about." Liam: "You have NEVER been this enthusiastic to go before."

Scorching Ray? Go Fearne ... torch those brambles! Ah, crap ... and now she's created a burning obstacle ... yeah ... Fearne: "Yeah, um ... I didn't really think that through."

Ashton is clearly gonna do something RECKLESS ... Hyper Rage? Whoa ... I HAVE TO see what THIS does ... Nat20? Nice ... he grabs a branch and BOOKS IT for the pool ...

Earthwalk? Cool ... and that's it ... oh, invisible barrier? Hmmmm ... ah! More purple flowers! Crap! Acid ... and the branches lose hit points TOO?!!! Shit! So close to going SO BAD ...

Imogen hops onto the wall and casts Detect Thoughts ... a LOUD STATICKY BUZZ?!!! Yeah, saw that coming ... uses a Sorcery point to get that slot back ... then she asks Fearne if she's real ...

Ashley has to TEXT IF SHE'S A DOPPLEGANGER to Matt and then he's going to ROLL FOR HER?!!! Bloody hell ...

FCG goes towards them now ... now he's looking for creatures ... hmmm ... oh, I see, he casts Speak With Animals. Asks the critters what's safe to interact with.

Oh, that is CREEPY ... Liam: "How does a squirrel know the word 'dubious'?"

And now he's being shadowed by a load of Lovecraftian squirrels ...

Grim Psychometry! Okay ... will THAT work in this? Chetney tries it ... good roll ... ah, a history lesson ... is there ANY actual point to that?

Matt, what are you doing? Some freaky little Fey thing is coming RIGHT AT Laudna! Going for her branch! Ah ... Ashton to the rescue! Crap, they didn't work ... and it's gone, along with her branch! Balls ...

Laudna sends Pate after it ... Laudna Spiderclimbs up and goes after it too ... get him, Pate! She channels Shocking Grasp through him go fet the thing ... ah, but it will also kill the branch! Oof ... what to do, then?

Pate is now WRESTLING with this thing while they wait for Chetney ... meanwhile Laudna does another Wither and Bloom ...

Orym jumps through the flames to go after it too ... shoots a vine to grab the branch! Also asks Laudna a personal question ... close enough! Hmmm ...

Just a regular owl ... oh NO!!! NO IT REALLY IS NOT A REGULAR OWL!!! AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!

Oh, so IS FCG actually made of metal right now? Can't tell. THAT was a pointless exercise, clearly.

Ashton goes to try and rescue FCG from the Owl Thing ... another Hyper Rage, jumps and attacks the thing with the hammer ... Reckless! 24 to hit ... 19 points of damage! Okay, Letters is loose again! Meanwhile Ashton runs right past a bramble and just dodges it in time, gives it a swat on the way ...

Imogen casts Fly on herself and goes at the Owl Thing, casts Shocking Grasp on it! ZAP!!! Oh, and she just ANNIHILATES it ...

FCG casts Owl's Wisdom on himself, asks Fearne if he can trust her ... again, it's inconclusive ... hmmmmm ...

Chetney tries to get to the first Thing, claws at it ... go feral on it, Wolfman! Oh ... that's just messy ... then he goes and swipes at a random tree ... and that was ALSO pointless ...

Spiderclimb, Laudna! Yeah ... more Wither and Bloom ... then she sends Pate to see if FCG is squishy ...

Oh gods ... Pate: "Geronimo!" He dive-bombs Letters ... who just DODGES ... yup ...

Orym goes rummaging with his RIDICULOUS perception ... and BARELY avoids disturbing another wasp's nest ... eep ...

Fearne casts Speak With Plants ... Matt goes crazy with his miming and voice work now with the plants ... oh, they're just TRAUMATISED seeing their "friends" burning ...

And now she's been attacked by brambles again ... oh dear ... well THAT didn't work ...

Ashton comes back and attacks the bramble patch after making sure it's really her ... and she's free. Okay then ... now he takes a swing at the arch and just DESTROYS the ruin. Hmmmm ...

Imogen uses a Sorcery point to supercharge her Inflict Wounds ... oh, Nat20! Okay ... bye bye plants ... and she has a branch! Nice.

FCG asks Imogen to drop the twig if she trusts him ... hmmmm ... oh, this is getting complicated now ... calm down, people!

Liam: "Did some ex high-school boyfriend just get a random text saying 'They're onto me'?"

And now FCG is being grappled by brambles ... oh, is he bleeding? Hmmmm ...

Chetney climbs the tree ... wait, some of the tree ISN'T REAL? What the eff? Oh, there's a hidden hole ... oh, A BRANCH!!! Yeah ... now he tries a reckless jump to the next platform ... Nice! Yeah ...

Laudna sends Pate after FCG ... she looks through his eyes ... Nat20 ... Whispers! More plugs from Sam! So IS HE bleeding?

She stays put and stays on guard now ...

Orym just up and dodges mor brambles, lands next to Chetney, asks if he really is his dad. XD

Fearne holds Hold Person while waiting by the pool ...

Leaving FCG trapped, Ashton goes past another patch to reach Fearne, and his Rage ends. Hmmmm ... then does a long range nerve check on Orym ... oh, more texting ... no way to know ... and now Ashton's holding an attack too ...

Imogen comes down to the pool, close to Orym, and holds her action ...

FCG takes more damage staying where he is, casts Divination to see if Orym is one of the dopplegangers ... the Changebringer answers ... oh, and Sam gets a Whispers too! Hmmmm ...

Ashley sneezes and SAM tells her to stop it! LOL

Chetney does a smell check on Orym ... more Whispers! Dear gods ... he takes the branch out of the Bag of Holding ...

Laudna unleashes her Hound of Ill Omen ... oh boy ... sends ot between Orym and Imogen ... oh boy again ... and now SHE'S holding her action too ... Infestation? Hmmm ... potential bee chaos if things go bad, then ...

Count of three then ...

Orym uses the Monocle of True Essence ... oh, that's actually really smart! Go for it, wee man! He casts Detect Magic through it ... Insight Check with Advantage, then ... 22! Okay ... more Whispers! Blimey ... he pulls out the branch again ...

Fearne drops Hold Person ... now she's playing peacemaker ...

Ashton goes to rescue FCG while burning a Rage ... takes a swing at the brambles ... oh yes, that's it ... crash! POW! And Letters is free ...

FCG casts Cure Wounds on himself, then rolls round to the group.

Okay ... moment of truth?

Laudna puts away her bees ... everybody puts their branches in at once ... oh, there we go. And ... oh, so that's it? So what happened, then?

Oh, so they're all back in the Ligament Manor! Okay then ... oh, it was all a dream? Crazy ... and now to BREAK!!!

Well yeah, they did learn a bunch from that ...

Back to Nzna Morri being super creepy ... and FCG and Fearne really did get hurt. Hmmmm ...

Ashton has a revelation. None of it is news, though ... just a wake-up call ... hmmmm ... I mean they are all a hot mess ...

Oh, so they're, like, naturally unassuming because they're underwhelming? Is that the idea? Not sure what to make of that.

Oh, drinks! Yay! Peepers ... not so much ...

Trust. Trust is good.

Again with Fearne taking the Shard ... oh, so they're rethinking this, then? And now it's gotten a bit smutty ... hmmm ...

Wait ... are they gonna do this NOW?!!! No ... short rest? Might be wise ...

Oh yeah, give her the fancy fire ring.

Ah, so this new stick thing increases spell abilities? Cool. That could be very helpful.

Oh, so we are doing this. Hmmmm ... go outside? Up to the garden, then. Okay ... everybody follows her up ...

Yeah, this ain't gonna go wrong or anything, is it? Fuck ...

Right ... preparations, then ... Enhance Ability? Bear's Endurance? Oh, that sounds helpful ...

Ooh, Bompers? Hello, weird beasty ... and Sweetpea! Yay ... and Doctor Nesbitt ...

Fearne pops Mister out too ... okay ...

FCG performs a Sympathetic Binding on her too ... also Orym gives her the Potion of Heroism? Okay then ... AND a Death Ward? Wow ... that's probably gonna do it, then ...

Laudna gets as far away from Chetney as she can, then Imogen just hugs her and shields her so she won't get compelled by Delilah to go for the Shard ...

So fucking nervous right now ...

And now the Shard is out ... here we go ...

Not now, Delilah! Oh shit ... Laudna has to make a Wisdom Save ... oh thank fuck ...

It's starting! Oh shit ... yup, the burning damage starts already ... hmmm ... yeah, this sounds uncomfortable ... ouch ... another 12 points ... argh ...

Yeah, it's ALREADY getting hairy ... lucky the Concentration Saves are good ... oh ... is this actually going more smoothly than it did with Ashton? It's still painful and hairy though ... znd now Ashton's giving up some of HIS health to her ...

Oh yes, it really DOES look like it's working ... but it's STILL hurting even so ...

And now apparently this us turning into a metaphor for birth trauma ... I mean OF COURSE it is ...

Apparently now her heart is turning into an actual genuine STAR ... I mean that is SO COOL even if it is terrifying ...

Wait ... are they being spied on? Crap ...

Holy fuck she is just going full on fucking Phoenix Force right now, ain't she? This is getting pretty awesome ...

Whoa ... weird vision? Hmmm ... is that a potential problem?

Yes! Keep up with the healing magic, FCG! Wait, if he does that again he's gonna go BERSERK?!!! Fuck ... oh, and it's actually happening ...

Oh thank fuck ... Nice save, guys!

FCG: "I'll fucking kill you!" Aaaaaaaaaaah!

Wait ... is Fearne becoming tuned into the Elemental Plane of Fire? Fascinating ...

Fearne is now reaching her Ultimate Form and it is MAGNIFICENT ...

Whoa ... that is VERY CLOSE to her bottom.ing out on health, though ... oh yes, Laudna, nice save! Wither and Bloom on the garden, then ...

Oooh ... Balrog Fearne, intriguing image ...

Last round? Okay then ... last chance to help her, guys ...

Oh shit, those poor bastards trapped in the garden, that is just ... unfortunate ... O.O

Fearne is now getting a visitation from some kind of elemental god thing? Hmmmm ... snd she's being ACCEPTED AS AN EQUAL? Wow ...

She BARELY squeaks through with what health she has ... and looks like THAT is the final burst, then ... EVERYBODY takes damage from that one ...

Oh okay then ... looks like that might be it, then ...

ASHLEY GETS A CARD!!! WHAT DOES IT SAY?!!! TELL US!!!

She's alive, and she's TRANSFORMED ... dhe looks INCREDIBLE ...

And now FCG is LOOSE ... Orym tries to ward him off ... oh, this is getting messy ...

For the love of the gods please just QUIT with this shit, guys ... and now he's attacking Orym ... bloody hell ... with the saw? Crap ...

Oh thank fuck ... he's back ...

So Fearne is HOT but she doesn't hurt to touch ... that is pretty cool. And she's still very flammable ... fascinating.

Wait ... this is, like, a specific FORM she can assume? Oh, that's do cool ... Fearne Calloway, eldritch magic girl!

Awwww ... yeah, Mister just LOVES this ...

That's a good point ... what FOES this mean for Ashton's Shard? They try it out ... oh wow, it actually WORKS, Ashton's new power reactivates ... oh yeah, these two are just two halves if a whole, clearly ...

And now Ashton's having the exact same kind of trip as Fearne did, but for Earth instead of Fire. Znd now he's found HIS Ultimate Form too ...

OH MY GOD suddenly HE is whole too ... AND HE GETS HIS OWN CARD!!! AWESOME!!!

Oh, so he can MERGE with stone now? That is pretty sweet ...

Can Fearne do cool stuff too, now?

They go downstairs to check out what they can do ... and now I can almost SENSE Matt preparing to wind down the episode ...

YES!!! HE IS!!! I knew it ... that is indeed it for tonight ... okay ...

Well, I definitely look forward to seeing what THIS is gonna lead to ... I guess we'll find out next week.

Indeed, IS IT Thursday yet?

[thatweirdnoise]

Ok i see a lot of people arguing (on twt) how the islanders proclaim they're friends with q!Quacks but do nothing to get him back

So im gonna ask a real question right now, if they were to start investigating Quackity's disappearance, where would they start?

Im being so fr right now. Cuz they dont even know if qQuack is REALLY gone. The audience is not sure of that! Maybe ElQuackity is qQuackity with his personality changed, who knows!

The only person who "saw" Quackity being taken is Jaiden, and apart from that they have NO IDEA where he might be.

"Ah but they tried way harder to find the other people"

The other people who went missing are: Cellbit and Felps (and i must remember your guys how Cellbit had to infiltrate the federation to find Felps, then he had to send coords to the rest because otherwise they wouldn't find them. And they cant do that plan again), Etoiles (who rescued himself), Tazercraft (who also rescued themselves) and Max (who got out of his own too)

Note: Jaiden is still missing, but idk if we can put her under the kidnapped category (who fucking no one saw being taken 💀)

Most people who got kidnapped found a way to get back on their own, the only exception being the first two

So the conclusion and two most important points to why they aren't doing anything is: they dont have enough clues to go after Quackity, and experience says kidnapped islander will be back eventually so there's no reason to worry (much).

[hangmanbradshaw]

Steph. I am still in awe and shook by the reveal of „the more you say, the less I know“. Genuinely can’t stop thinking about it and it’s been over 12 hours. I am so looking forward to rereading it in its entirety! Do you want to share anything about it? How you came to that idea and maybe stuff you decided to not pursue while writing? Any special symbols? Just. Would love to get more insight in your whole thought process!

Hi!!! Ahhhh thank you omg <3 still thinking about it? That's the ultimate compliment. I'd love to know what has kinda stuck with you. There's a lot I think that will stick out on a re-read or maybe hit differently. Omg yeah so much I could say about this one cuz it's just...layered af haha. I'm going to put under the cut just for spoiler purposes (sorry I went way into this so if you'd rather keep your not totally knowing theory view don't read haha)

So this started with a simple idea I couldn't get out of my head which was just innkeeper on a remote northeastern island, gloomy town, detective who is staying there to investigate. The townspeople all clearly know more than they're letting on. So that's what it started with, and I sat down and talked it out a bit with a friend (love you Georgie) and imagined a world and story and it snowballed from there. I decided I wanted to write about cycles, specifically cycles of grief. Achlys/the island as grief or sorrow itself, playing with a misunderstood or little talked about 'old god', how sorrow can cloud your vision metaphorically and in this case literally with the fog. Characters represent different stages of grief- bargaining, anger, depression, etc. It asks the age old question- is it better to have loved and lost or never loved at all. But it's very much about cycles. You have the original settlers who made this deal, life for love. This goddess who feeds on suffering, and sure, she agrees to take away their suffering of pestilence, starvation, etc. but she feeds on their suffering of the heart then. These old 'sorrows' twist the land into monstrosities because they can't simply cease to exist. And then they feed on those who go out at night (their memories and love) and the resulting sorrow of their 'losses'. But she won't give them up. So they return with new memories. Alone. Lonely. Vision blurred to the truth, only shells of themselves. And then once pestilence, starvation, etc are returned to the world, the land itself is freed again. A lot of playing with nature is alive, etc. So I came up with this whole lore- going back to the original agreement, and these cycles that keep repeating over and over. There's so much I could go into with the lore that is only hinted at in the story. All centering on this original curse- destined to be a stranger to his lover (wink wink). So many parallels you'll find. With the original agreement. With the 'old guard' of Tom/Mav/Carole/Nick and the 'new guard' of Jake/Bradley/Nat/Javy. With their pasts and present. Liam's disappearance and now this. Until you have this final cycle they're able to break, and really it's a lot of things that make this possible, but at the heart it's Tom. His love for his nephew, his respect for Bradley and Jake. This mayor character that is supposed to 'protect' the town instead chooses love, despite his 'programming' to follow duty. And you've got Jake's memories trying to break through and break the programming because he loves them. It's really just about love and its strength, and then they finally get this opportunity to break those roots with achlyn/achlys and learn to live with their past but not in it. Pie itself is a symbol, roots, there's a lot with his parents, with the lighthouse. Jake's dreams......SO much could be said there but I think you'll have some cool insights on a re-read. Keeping in mind who Liam is, how he views him. How he views himself with the mirror. How he views himself as having something wrong. That he failed. There's more I could say, but generally I wanted to write the story in a way that started one way and slowly made you question reality as Jake himself and finally all the characters did.

Let me give you an ask I know you'll love. Top 5 moments from death note, any version including light novels is 👌🏼

OKay this is SO late because I wasn't using my desktop for a hot second and mobile doesn't like to tell me about inbox messages, but I also didn't check so that's my bad! <3 But both of y'all asking about top 5 death note momence has me so <3 <3 <3 ; w ;

Okay so I will preface this with: it has been a very hot minute since I read LABB so as much as I'm obsessed with it entirely, I probably forgot some very good moments. u_u These are gonna be silly moments cuz I like the funnies.

Starting at number 5 and going to my favorite moment:

5. The entire time Light is under house surveillance. From the weirdly conservative and leisurely skimming of lingerie mags to look like an average, regular teen (not believable). To the famous "I'll take a potato chip... heh... AND EAT IT!" scene. Classic.

4. I think it's like 1 week max since Light had got the Death Note. Lind L. Taylor shows up on tv and Light is like ??. He introduces himself as "L", says I have a pretty good idea of why you're doing this, but "what you are doing... is evil!". And Light IMMEDIATELY is like oh FUCK this guys ENTIRE life. DIE! Which also outs his location like entirely, LOL. Idk it's just very funny to me. Anti-kira? CANCELLED... LIVE!!!

3. Light and L's fist fight(s). Love watching these homophobic gays fight each other with their bare hands and get knocked around because they're chained together. They clearly love it too and I wish they'd get their hands dirty a bit more often instead of just always using their massive brains to have dirty brain sex.

2. From the LABB Murder Cases, Chapter 5, Page 117-119: A very close second favorite part of mine is when Naomi comes up from the kitchen at a crime scene with some coffee on a tray for her and Rue Ryuzaki (private detective and Freak). She opens the door and askes if he found any more clues and then notices he's just laying in the middle of the room, flat on his back, arms and legs sprawled out like a star fish. She's frozen looking at this dude and then repeats the question and is kinda worried he's gonna start crawling around with his back arched like in some horror movie (ps. For context: she found this guy at a crime scene when she looked under the bed and he crawled out from under it (hes a seasoned on-all-fours crawler), and ate a jar of jam with his bare hands for lunch. amongst... other things. so she's already going THROUGH it with this dude). He doesn't respond and shes like uhm? and he says "I'm a corpse." "Hunh??" "I have become a corpse. I cannot answer. I am dead." She's bewildered but just accepts it and ponders how to get around this dude so she can put the coffee tray down. She eventually goes to jump over him but completely fucks it and steps, in boots, right on his gut. In an attempt to catch her balance and not spill the hot coffee on him and everywhere she puts her entire weight on him." "Gah!" said the corpse." "S-sorry!" she remarks and then they carry on. I'd give anything to be a fly on the wall with these two.

From the LABB Murder Cases, Chapter 2, Page 55-56: My favorite part of the book (tho honestly there are so many so don't quote me on that lol) is when Naomi goes into the bathroom to speak to L on the phone about the case at hand. She reports that a strange private detective is there helping her. To which L asks point blank: "Is he cool?" and shes like.... what? and he repeats the question and she's still unsure how to answer such a question, but lays it on THICK. She's dead honest and is like this guy SUCKS, he's quite honestly a PATHETIC FREAK and a WEIRDO "and I'm surprised he hasn't killed himself yet". I'm crying! She said that!! There is silence and L changes the subject back to the case. BUT the best part is she leaves the bathroom to go back to investigating and the "freak" in question (Rue Ryuzaki) is standing right there and was most likely eaves dropping on the whole conversation she just had. The whole scene has me hollering entirely and I think about this art done by @/ekmeko everyday. Link

He's making a few prototypes and he is going through the design and testing phase and it is sweet this is a great car it's made well

It is sturdy eleo wind car from Columbia and it is probably going to go in production this week and he earned a few things out heard what our son was saying the fans in the HVAC are better and they are smoother and faster and go very high RPM he likes that and he said and likes the grill on the screen idea and an exit girl so people can't tamper with it and he did like that he's got the ideas and he's going to do it up and the interior will be professional but he says this is possibly the car it's not really too far off I don't know what the chassis is and I don't know what the buckboard chassis it looks original and he said he came in and showed me how to make it so he's going to start making these for his reasons and really this is a huge concept for you guys to try and swallow and I don't know if you'll ever do it this is one of those things that everybody doesn't like to do cuz they want to do it and a bunch of hoes bags

THIS IS A WIND CAR IT IS LIKE A HYBRID ELECTRIC AND HAS A BATTERY AND IT WORKS ON A'S GENERATOR THAT THE WIND USES MOST PEOPLE WILL SAY IT WORKS ON THE BATTERY THAT YOU CHARGE WHILE YOU'RE RUNNING WHICH WOULD WORK BUT IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE IT IS MUCH MORE POWERFUL OF A MOTOR AND MORE POWERFUL OF A GENERATOR AND THOSE ARE DONE ON PURPOSE IT'S BECAUSE THIS WOULD BE COVER FOR FLY CARS CUZ THEY LOOK LIKE THIS. UPON EXAMINATION YOU PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TELL IT'S A FLY CAR

YOU WOULD HAVE TO LOOK UNDER IT AND INSIDE AND PEOPLE WANT THAT THEY'RE TIRED OF GETTING CAPTURED AND NOT HAVING A CHANCE AND IT WILL START A FLY CAR MORE OR LESS TECH RACE ACTUALLY THIS HAS ALREADY STARTED IT PEOPLE SEE HOW IT WORKS YOU'RE TYING THE BATTERY IN AS A STARTING MECHANISM AND EMERGENCY BACKUP TO THE GENERATOR WHICH RUNS THE MOTOR WITH TRANSFORMER AND VOLTAGE REGULATOR AND IT IS SOPHISTICATED AND IT IS OUR SUN AND DAUGHTERS TO SIGN AND THEY LIKE THE NAME BECAUSE THEY LIKE ELO THE ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA AND THEY LIKE WHAT IT REALLY MEANS TOO WE LOOKED AT IT TO SEE IF IT CORRELATES TO THE CART WHICH IS REALLY CRAZY BECAUSE THE CART LOOKS LIKE IT'S MADE TO CARRY A DEVICE AND NOT A BALL BUT IT WOULD STILL WORK AT QUARTER POWER THE WAY HE'S BUILDING THEM WAS VERY STURDY AND IT BLEW THEIR S*** OUT OF THEM THEY DIDN'T INVESTIGATE THINGS THAT WELL BACK THEN BUT IT FITS IN A FEW WAYS

And yeah these people are idiots here so we're working on that too but we have to tell you this is a great idea and he had this idea a while ago instead of cover fly cars a few people try it and said it works and they like it and he says it also will it looks like a Bugatti and about 10 other cars renault's and Peugeot and all those cars look like this and you can turn them all into fly cars very simply put it will look like the same fencing system and you have front engine and he said this is intense people won't convert but they will make a Mercedes flying car and their regular cars and they all look right in the leader and the cars like that Vader and a lot of supercars look like this even Ferrari thinks it's a good idea so we're going ahead with it and we're going to try and make ours and we did look at the design and design of the cart David did not build it but he did pin it on Tony f Tommy F and our son is doing that too

You bastard I can't believe it it happened again it's these Giants this time of size bad and it says no it's sort of interestingly bad and I said boy that's awful he's got some sort of cylinder device with a really cheesy silver colored head that's a ball with a wig that's made from a mop and it's blonde and lipstick on it and I have to say "now get out" and yeah okay I do that but not that way is a fly car but I get it. I didn't see the issue I do see the issue we're talking about it too much. But yeah just dump it to the right a little make sure it's a device not a person. That's my advice. For Christ sake this is stupid so yeah these things go super duper fast a regular jet goes about 3,000 mph you can get used to 12 or 15 and the super jets about 20 super jets but those are the big ones. So I'm going to make these and it's awesome I've never seen any person come up with somebody damned ideas he says it's not going and I get it so now I have the senior car Cena and I know how to make it fly and then there's this one everyone know if he's going to get one and I'll say it's probably not we're looking for is his people but it says the Volkswagen is representative of the cart and his people won't be driving around a cart so I began to laugh I said who the hell are we looking for and you probably looking for a Mac proper who are going to blow you up and blow up these separatist cities and yeah that's where we are and we're not considered to be German that's really what the code is so we're going to print and it says good job and I appreciate it he's really excited when he saw it

He's got special features he wants to add that are just outrageously cool these fans from HVAC units spend with just the slightest push and the bearings are awesome and he said you could charge later sitting there and almost any City or area it's going to be windy a little bit like 1 mile an hour charges it I could not believe it was true it was working in the shop and it said we're absolutely crazy I said look you can charge it up with a fan if you had to I started to laugh and I said that's stupid Chris and people leave their fans on day and night and it will be nothing and if you don't have the thing to hook it in if you like on the road to borrow the fan from the gas station reroute the air from the hand dryer a lot of stupid things like that might happen I'll tell you what it's actually really that much fun but no regular wind will do it you just face the car a little bit that way if you can most the time it doesn't matter it just does not take that much force and these fans they work at Ingles so you would not believe it it's perfect I got to start making them with that it's just an awesome idea

Tommy f

I think I know it right on the head it's covered and it works and we think it is a VW and it was it was surely after he was signed on to the Continental Congress it makes sense that these guys aren't going to be here and they won't be here like at all and that we will want him up here because of the danger down there and we would help get it to him and what we mean is that with the ocean deeper subs and stuff might come in and ships go by closer I believe it or not they they try stuff but it's too shallow and it's too hard to get in that makes sense to me finally something makes sense so he says I'm back to freaking Rhode Island that's right and Hera says don't use my name in pain I said it didn't come out that way and it was almost and she's arguing and he says I got to make my living arguing with my wife and she says no you're not so that's the way it is and he says I give you a ride in the Volkswagen if you fit and that's very funny I come in a different format you goofball good and don't come as a lily I'm not going to so anyways... That was those two and we do have other things to talk about these Revelations coming up might be too big for us that was going to go through it and he says You shall not pass that's great thank you

Mac Daddy

Saw me saying that but thank you very much it's not me saying that I do understand what you're saying your magician that's all you got and it's even can't do it it's really starting to get stupid

Michael tew

He's going to do it to the mall to me and he's bigger like Stewie and his brother Chris on the show family Guy and I really don't want to go through that as soon as you don't have to you can go around there's a lot of room in the mall and stop doing that

Ken

That's when you ken I don't need another one and you're a man

We have some news so we're going to print

so while watching Due South has been great for getting myself back into the Titan Modern AU, it's also filling my head up with random hijinks scenes that I just don't have the time to fill out properly 😮‍💨️

So you get to read them here in 'sketch' format.

1 (Modern AU, prior to DNS)

On their way home from dinner, a call comes in for crowd control outside a burning tenement, so Elo and Farren head over. While there, a woman with an baby says her young son isn't out here - she sent him ahead while she dealt with the baby. Farren gets the drop, runs into the building for the kid. 5 mins later the building starts to collapse. The woman screams. Elo pegs it into the building as the fire crews are turning up, finding Farren pinned under a beam. The kid's fine, but Elo can't move the beam. Farren tells her to split with the kid; reluctantly she does. Farren is pulled out and sent off to hospital for a broken leg, burns and smoke inhalation. Elo stays the night at his bedside. That goes into something about a case her colleagues are working on being related to the fire, while Farren is being investigated by the Fire dept, and ofc Elo has to clear his name.

2 (Vanilla setting, prior to DNS)

Elo wakes up tied to a chair. Farren is also tied to a chair, behind her. Between them is a bottle of Alchemist's Fire (think napalm). Farren asks if she trusts him (he's got a plan but it's risky). For the first time since they've been partners, she has to pause. She's gotten involved in something bad trying to help her 'twin' brother Ashbury, and, worried about her, Farren reports her, so Elo ends up on suspension. But Elo doesn't know when to quit and now she and Farren are tied up in a canal-side warehouse with the equivalent of a bomb between them, and he's asking if she trusts him. So they argue - Elo says she thought she could, but he's screwed her over, and her brother besides, so what's she to make of that, huh, maybe he shoulda trusted her. And Farren says he was worried, she was in danger, partners look out for each other, he was looking out for her cuz Ashbury's not the one tied up here is he? And while they're arguing, Ashbury's dragged in, and the guy who's got him is one of the few on the Eastside who still think's Farren's his undercover alter, Micky Stamford. Despite herself Elo does trust Farren, and when he saves the day she realises he was on her side all along. Plus no one ends up dead, nothing catches alight and nothing ends up in a canal.

Rrrrrrrrant

I am so fed up with Conservative Arrogance in Alberta.

Apparently in the long debate regarding workers rights /union contracts the UCP handed out EAR PLUGS so they dont have to do their job and listen to the official opposition!

WHY IS THIS CONSIDERED APPROPRIATE WHAT THE FUCK

The ARROGANCE

I’m absolutely incensed.

“Weeh we’re the richest province but we cant pay our teachers, nurses, doctors, nor build hospitals... weeeh why should we bother widening the highway of death for fort mcmurray that costs money eweeehhh us poooor poooooooor Alberttannnsss ssuuuuffferrrinng because we dont understand how taxes workkkkkk...lets give tax breaks to people so they can cut the work force and fuck off to elsewhere “

i like honestly cant
