I get that calling white lotus lbh a sticky little 'sheep' is a canon translation and stuck in the fandom now anyway, but I do feel the intended spirit of the original word wasn't the sheeple/dumb herd animal that's more common in the western world, but instead something actually conveying sweetness, innocence, purity and youth - lamb.

Famous for being utterly adorable and following around their mothers, gambolling in sunny meadows, curly white wool shining.

And NOW we can talk about black sheep/wolf in sheep's clothing metaphors.

Can't refind the post in the tag, but I remember a few days back there was a question about Xu Shanshan and whether she originally died or not. My kneejerk reaction was that she didn't simply because there wasn't the focus you'd expect for them changing what you'd think would be a major node. However, I was only able to figure out what I think *actually* happened here now, several days after the fact.

The main issue is that Lu Guang lost connection with Xu Shanshan. We know he can maintain a connection when someone is unconscious (as Cheng Xiaoshi demonstrated both with Emma and Doudou), he just can't see anything until they awaken. So, initially, I thought perhaps XSS was just knocked out past the end of the twelve hours. And tbf, I don't think that can be entirely discarded. But I think it's much less likely now we have certain knowledge from season two and if we pay attention to Lu Guang's wording (translations, don't fail me now).

Lu Guang says he *lost the connection* with XSS and that's why he presumed the worst. In s1, we haven't seen this happen before. But we do see something similar in season two. When Lu Guang tries to read Li Tianxi's photo, he struggles and isn't able to see far enough to guide CXS before he dives. He put it down to his injuries at the time, but looking at the context of the dive, where CXS faced disruption (eventually being kicked out entirely) and at one point was unable to communicate with LG, it seems likely his struggle was more to do with the twins' powers not playing well with his own instead.

So, my suggestion is that the solution to this s1 dilemma is found in s2. Lu Guang losing connection with XSS was as a result of her interacting with the twins. This could be through a number of different routes:

Through interaction with possessed Liu Min (bit of a stretch but tbf even in the twin dive the disruption is kinda inconsistent in terms of which powers are being affected and whom by);

If she was taken to Li Tianchen directly when hidden away;

If LTC switched his possession to XSS once he decided to hide her away (using the very prominently displayed public photo of XSS in the newspaper).

While Khare wasn't exactly considered a 'success' by PROMETHEUS, there are times where her body does function according to plan. One of these are enhanced capabilities, particularly in regards to improved jumping thanks to the frog DNA inserted into her genetic sequence. One time when walking to Pauli's, Khare was startled by a group of young thugs calling out and running after her. When met by a dead-end, she jumped straight up and on top of the building, losing the group but ended up arriving late to work as she struggled to find a way down after getting on top of a (very) high roof.

Easter eggs & also they’re in love | Seventh Virtue

“Why did you do it?” Harrison asks. Lonan is lovely, isn’t he? He’s always looked like a sculpture, but Harrison realizes that that isn’t quite right—he looks better than them. The muse.

Lonan grips Harrison’s wound, shaking his head as he lets out a sad laugh. “I was desperate to love you.”

Harrison laughs too. Because it’s funny, how in another plane, their lives could’ve been just the two of them driving silently from Oregon to Boston, chasing each other’s ghosts, separating for a year, coming back together on a cliffside. How easy would that’ve been?

Finally finished my SV reread after an unexpected break (5/5 stars, fantastic work of art tailored to all my needs LOL), and I haddddd to share this hilarious excerpt that starts out super sweet with all the romance & Lonan going full hopeless romantic yada yada yada AND THEN devolving into a quick & dirty summary of Moth Work/Feeding Habits.

HOW easy could THAT have been??? BB Harrison is ON THE PHONE.

HAHAHAHAAHAHA

Gethsemane

Holy Week is a good time to remember what Jesus did for us. He was definitely crushed in soul in the Garden of Gethsemane. This is a good devotional for this week, I hope it helps you reflect on our amazing Savior, Jesus Christ!

Even though I am torn within, and my soul is in turmoil, I will not ask the Father to rescue me from this hour of trial. For I have come to fulfill my purpose — to offer myself to God. So, Father, bring glory to your name!” Then suddenly a booming voice was heard from the sky, “I have glorified my name! And I will glorify it through you again! John 12:27-28 Gethsemane literally means “oil…

[prompt-master]

fnaf is that series that has interesting ideas too bad it can’t actually implement these ideas well and just makes me go “wait what did I miss something?” and then you learn you didn’t miss anything that just how it was supposed to go

No literally tho!!

I remember playing security breach and constantly being like no surely this isn't all there is (especially with regards to the endings and tape recordings)

Me and my friend had a little tradition of playing blind and going crazy as possible, before googling it afterwards and I remember when we finally got to Google stage of security breach if was SOOO underwhelming learning there wasn't much left (I think we only missed the picture secrets)

Like fucking hell man. Shakes fnaf. You have good ideas!! Good character designs and an interesting world! I'm begging you </3
