Im Ace and I don't like cake or garlic bread and thats (along with dragons) like the big ace joke.
I'm a tad bit curious if others are the same. Also I thought figuring out how poles work would be neat.
(Flavor of Ace meaning anyone on the ace spectrum: ace, gray ace, or demisexual etc...)

more disorganized yakuza culture bordering on religion thoughts
(finished order 7, 8, 0, k1, k2. currently at 3 ch 3)
it feels like the writer went deep into reading about buddhism and religion at one point
im not japanese but a SEAsian uh chinese/hokkien diaspora who happens to be a weab so take this with some grain of salt bc we arent a monolith here
Surface level understanding of buddhism
when it comes to gang and tattoos or in yakuza's case irezumi, theres a general consensus of tats = cool and rebellious in a culture thats largely very collectivist. so getting one is like pointing the middle finger to society
the problem is sometimes tattoos are gotten more for the aesthetics than truly understanding the deeper meaning behind it. an easy example is the dragon itself: its powerful, its strong, it comes and goes, and does good things whenever it wants to. it might get associated with buddhism but like... if you think about it for 3 seconds, it fucking falls apart for 1 reason
gods in buddhism are the maintenance crew for the world's function (rain, nature, etc), and at the same time are supposed to be as part of the cycle and pain as everyone else. meaning, gods arent inherently special, they just happen to be higher beings doing their best to escape the cycle of samsara.
so by that lens, borrowing godhood from god to elevate yourself is... uh. kinda weird. (imo at least).
yet what goes on in 2? ryuji borrows the dragon iconography and tries to achieve dragonhood. kiryu is thematically the dragon but thats kind of all that he is. hes more theme than human at this point.
in yakuza 1 and 2 theres some hint of this surface crap. the story never really goes deep enough exploring the aspects of this cycle of suffering thing. the general message seems to be, suffering happens and builds character. which fucking sucks.
but thats not the real point of the buddhist message. its more suffering is unavoidable, so do your best to reduce it for yourself and others, and roll with it.
The gap and the growth between 1, 2 and 7, 8
looking at 7 and 8 in contrast to 1 and 2 and i think its clearly buddhist as fuck: kasuga ichiban is framed as jesus, but in some buddhist interpretations, jesus qualifies as a boddhisattva, ie someone who clears the condition of escaping samsara but chooses to stay behind to help. and thats what ichiban does. he doesnt judge, he refuses to play into classism bullshit, and forces people to look past it.
buddhism was originally a breakaway from hinduism. where hinduism had a whole caste system forcing people into tiers, buddhism tried breaking it. (and then medieval japan's government turned it into shinto buddhism and shoved everyone into a caste system themself... yeesh.)
meanwhile, in gaiden, kiryu has this bit where he meditates as a monk for enlightenment.
makes me wonder if the writer tried to do something similar and exactly how much buddhist stuff did they read at one point....
oh btw
Kiryu and Kasuga's theme. Dragon and Not-Dragon
ok i fucking caught this:
kiryu is the rain dragon isnt he? hes always associated with rain in yakuza 1 and 2, in an era where rendering rain for cinematic purposes is a ROYAL PAIN IN THE ASS.
theres a few types of dragons out there but the uhhh oldest? traditional-est? one is the association with rain and storms. originally bc ppl in the past thought lightning strikes and flashes looks a lot like mythical creatures, and eventually the whole eastern dragon came about with that association.
meanwhile kasuga's kanji name reads as spring day. i am looking directly into the camera at this theming. hes the sunny spring day that comes after the storm. the story will be far kinder to him than kiryu.
so even though dragons are supposed to be strong and good fortune to be seen, and are benevolent and etc, they are again more theme than person.
theres even a real trend where everyone wants to borrow the dragon aesthetic to look cool, big, strong, fortuitous and lucky, be it in tattoos, irezumi, ritual, traditions or propaganda (chinese nationalism stuff). what i mean is people will have babies on the year of the dragon on purpose, wear the dragon and give more preferential treatment to their child/grandchild born on the year of the dragon.
everyone worships the dragon and takes its scales to wear, but no one thinks of the dragon as a creature. as a living thing.
meanwhile ichiban's irezumi cant even be called a dragon. maybe a mermaid. but not a dragon. and in that regard i feel like he's escaped from a fucking curse.
Carrying the cross
some other bits i picked up also. kazuki and daigo, and their crosses
shinto buddhism is the default in japan. but more SHINTO than buddhism, mind, bc buddhism is something people seek out these days rather than be taught bc its too super fucking esoteric. meanwhile, christianity is the minor religion. while some people do think of it negatively (due to instances of cults), it is by no means a mystery or exotic or even so minor that its rare.
anyway thing is. in these specific characters' cases, im 99% sure they signify a desire to walk away from their old self and past. bc of the baptism thing.
in buddhism, theres nothing to absolve one of their past. theres a strong emphasis on change instead, so its more of acceptance rather than discard.
which is. hm. idk what daigo's major deal is but from 2 -> 8 he seems like he ate a lot of shit along the way, guessing from his acala irezumi and name. and that the cross isnt a big thing in his character design anymore: it reads a little like he stopped running away from his family history.
(incidentally shinto is very responsible for the conservative classism in japan historically speaking, which is why its not a very strong thing in rgg setting. basically, strong Cleanliness and Dirtiness ideas, and guess which side of our night life, criminal and ex yakuza mcs falls under :') )
anyway im nuts bye

ok so i am home from my vacation and i have only had time to watch bdubs' SL pov and hlf of cleo's rn. regardless wanted to ramble my thoughts on this session and fair warning it isnt gonna be super positive (the short: didnt really like it) so yeah.
reminder though i absolutely Love these people. i love how they play and theyre great and im watching first and foremost bc i like seeing them have fun. my issues lie in the series' mechanics, how it plays, the technical function, management etc.
the thing about watching one pov is i feel like it can also spell out other issues but i will get to that later
obviously the big thing. the "infection" task. listen.... the concept of a boogeyman infection by itself is cool! i like that! but.... not here?????? out of all series.
there is no regen, and this fact is conflicting to me because i feel like the boogey should be struggling against those theyre trying to infect, and minecraft's regen would be that struggle, like it has been for every past boogey chasing their targets.
you have to kill everyone not red? not red???? so like 90% of the server? insane.
this was an EASY TASK........... this pisses me more on what this season's rules have been implied to be. suddenly, they arent really making sense. i will go into this deeper.
this just doesnt seem like the right place to plant this task. it is hugely impactful and feels like it is happening for no reason. if they were going on like 10+ episodes and grian was formally like "well, secret keeper wants this wrapped up so lets see what task hes gonna give all of us!" and then boom, this is it. then cool. make up a proper excuse like wrapping up the season.
it was too much of a shocker, unprepared for, and with how intense it is by needing to kill everyone left it feeling very unfair to the people i was watching. Bdubs had just died previously and now lost all his hearts in one session because of the force of another task. as did many others. if there was to even be any slight alteration to more "fairness" it could have been "the one you killed is now boogey. hand them the book and make them kill someone by themself. you are no longer infected. you cannot kill the person who killed you." or something idk. every part of the server going after one person is way too much.
regarding rules and whatnot, i was already kind of annoyed by this previous session too. there are two tasks now that have me going "how tf is this "easy"?" Bdubs' task of chicken causing damage-- an amount that had to go as high as anyone could stand it-- seems way too harsh as an easy task. there were a few tasks where health could be lost, but none of it was deliberate "lose as much as possible". losing the same amount of health as another player (like grian and joel) is not the same as telling the player they basically need to lose as much as possible compared to someone else in order to win the challenge. grian and etho's hard tasks took a lot of damage (to others mostly lol) but it was a destructive hard task. bdubs' with the dragon was as well.
but gem's task especially... i mean, holy crap. that is a red life's task, or a hard task at most! even if i liked the whole thing i think id still be on the page of saying that is not an "easy" task. a red life getting this task would have been interesting too because it would put a ton of risk on them to survive and get it done. and sure, theyd get some allies in the infected but theyd still be a target in the fights. that would have been tense for them!
cancelling out all of the others' tasks when they were infected made sense but it totally changed the direction of people's videos. it forced them to be different to everyone. suddenly the first quarter or half of the video is just void and pointless. when the tasks basically direct their entire motive and how they act towards everyone, forcing them into big choices they cannot change, i think its bad. social tasks that pass off as kind normal are funny (etho's weeping angel, get scar to talk abt star wars, compliment ppl when they take damage etc), or outward and confusing but not character controlling ones (kill the dragon, connect your base to others, etc). ones that direct a player so strongly shouldnt ruin their interactions with everyone else either (playing tag-- took up a lot of time but players were "neutral" to everyone and carried on as normal).
some people were saying this task could be to speed up the series. im not really sure abt that. regardless i am sure they thought this would just be an interesting thing to do and thats why they did it. (i have seen martyn on here sometimes talking vaguely abt tasks being random and whatnot and no offense to him but it doesnt sound like at all he does have all the information to knowing this. i mean, why would he? hes a player. the admins are doing things he has no clue about. hes not even firmly stating anything. hes just saying what he knows, which i dont think is at all everything the admins are doing in front of them). i have seen this series play with many balance issues through its lifetime and i think this season esp shows a lot of that again. grian stated around one season how theres no play testing really. the admins might run some stuff i guess but theyre not testing much. and thats very obvious when limlife had that issue of deaths not showing in chat (and hey look, it happened again!) or boogey kills in LL and LimLife (along with normal kills in Lim) not being detected by means that were not direct (mechanically this just happens, you cant fix it. but they did not prepare to deal with this at all and it was chaotic to watch in Limlife and caused a lot of confusion on who got time).
i have repeating some of these things about SL already so i dont want to drone on again. i have been kinda neutral to SL because many eps were fine, i didnt love every task (personally didnt like etho getting so many "out of character" ones, like please give this man a break he is so socially awkward its hard to watch). but this session and last session have me not enjoying the task concept.
from the start i just wished this season was about not being able to regen hearts and thats it. i need something simple, dude. its getting convoluted. and its obvious with the amount of hall monitoring and the amount of talk the cc have in these videos telling hall monitors to stop, to explain successes or failures, etc etc. they should have to do that. limlife already had some ppl getting picky about who got time or not but this is even more subjective and confusing!! im sure theyre still having fun and i like seeing them having fun here but as a viewer im just seeing a concept that has too much going on, stuff that doesnt have a simple yes or no answer sometimes and i dont think thats good for a series like this, one that started out so incredibly simple and straight forward.

i was thinking about it and i realised that i had sort of subconsciously been under the impression that atla was one of those star wars situations that tells you anyone can be magic but in actuality every major plotpoint just ties back to one single family every time (some of you may be saying “but rey wasnt a skywalker!” to which i respond “who was the primary antagonist then wiseguy” but this post isnt actually about star wars so fuck me ig) anyway what im getting at is, other than zuko, whose major theme is his relationship with his family and therefore with his nation as a whole (and also he was actual royalty so it was inevitable tbh), every single other main character’s parents were not explicitly benders, or were nonbenders. aangs parents arent ever even shown! i mean for a show where its canon that magic is genetic, they do a waaaayyyyyy better job at delivering the “anyone can be a hero” storyline than media that actually textually tells that story lmao
not only is the show about children, its also about lots of marginalised groups. all the characters are POC, toph is blind, katara is a girl (toph is obviously also a girl but her character doesnt really explore misogyny like katara ykwim?), sokka is just some guy even in the context of the magic system, even aang — the literal chosen one!!!! — is just a random kid who also happens to be the reincarnation of the most powerful spirit in the galaxy or whatever (thats a recurring theme of the show actually), and zuko ,who is the most nepo baby protagonist, isnt actually the prodigy of his family and is instead frequently upstaged by his little sister lol
like it would have been so easy to do a “and guess what the reason toph is such a great bender is because she’s secretly king bumi’s great niece!!!!!!” reveal, which is such a classic plot twist that tbh its barely a twist these days, but instead toph was a badass specifically because of the unique perspective she gained by being disabled and the way that allowed her to connect with the world around her ie the badgermoles — thats a way stronger story! the only relationship reveal we get (other than i guess aang learning he’s the avatar which kind of maybe counts??) is zuko learning he’s related to roku which. i mean he was already a nepo baby so it doesnt detract from his agency really and in fact reinforces his recurring “there are two wolves” conflict, which up to that point was mostly shown through azula and iroh (think his ba sing se fever dream wherein there were two dragons inside him voiced by azula and iroh respectively one advocating good the other evil, foreshadowing the final conflict of the season where he must choose between azula and iroh and he backslides in his moral arc by choosing azula which is a really cool narrative choice that tbh now that im thinking about it i probably should have made this tangent its own post but we’re here now ig)
also i was thinking about how bending is genetic but also skips generations (neither kya nor hakoda is a bender, and we dont know of any grandparent other than gran gran, who is a nonbender, and i think its a dominant gene bc ursa wasnt a bender to my knowledge but zuko and azula are, so probably neither kya nor hakoda had bender parents, but obviously katara is a bender, but sokka isnt, plus there were identical twins in the volcano episode where only one was a bender which does confuse me scientifically but i dropped science so whatever) and bending is shown as common enough that probably everyone has atleast one ancestor who is a bender so tbh it sort of circles back to being random lol
this post is really just me thinking out loud (well not. out loud. bc its written. you get it) so it might not be coherent but idk its another way that atla is very clever and has effective storytelling and creates themes subtextually etc etc ok thanks
#christ this ended up a bit long#atla#analysis#? tbh i dont think this counts as analysis but tags r hard idk#look i had to think about punnet squares for a tmblr post about a 20 year old nick jr show cut me some slack#im good at maths and english so science had to be my dump stat it is what it is#also semi related writing this post made me realise i dont pronounce the a in and which. its always weird to analyse your own accent idk

one through six!
favorite type
my favorite type is... electric. but i also like water a lot!!!!!!
2. least favorite type
my least favorite is probably rock just because i feel like there arent that many notable rock type pokemon. i wish there were more!
3. favorite dual type
umm we dont have this dual typing yet but dragon fairy... i want a dragon fairy type sooooooooo bad. please. i think it'd look really really cool. but im not very sure of the newer pkmn designs. scarvio stuff feels so weak. :/
4. least favorite dual type
ummm probably psychic fairy. for the most inane reason possible, pink may be my favorite color but i dont like seeing both pinks next to each other bc it makes me think that the psychic type pink is worse. idk it just annoys me. other than that? maybe like. bug flying. or bug poison. feels redundant and we could have different more unique dual typings. i still vote that venomoth should be a bug/psychic type.
5. favorite trainer
um. lance lawl. which is really embarrassing bc he has like no personality. and the other trainer that i like the most is dawn who is a player character and hence also has not really much personality unless you look at her when she's professor rowan's assistant. so shrugs. but i rlly like her design and i do... like the story of dppt so. yeah.
6. least favorite trainer
erm ummm. i cant think of anyone who pisses me off or anyhting. i dont care for the rivals in xy. i like the girl rival. not serena but the other one. i like her. but everyone else is whatever.

RANDOM SGE REWRITE / AU THINGS
suddenly feeling the ghost of my 14yo self throttling me to be cringe and annoying (debatable) again and me and @evening-blossoms have a Torrent of ideas weve been building up over the years that i HAVE to get out or i will just. idk. start screaming? and never stop??? idk
also disclaimer this is very very tangentially related to any form of arthuriana. at least half of this is incorrect to anyone who has actually read and knows the stories. or sge for that matter lmaooooo
PART ONE: THE DRAGON OF CAMELOT
the pendragons are an absolutely rabid family and it all started with uther. hes the grand old patriarch of this family and by god he is. possibly the sole cause of every single fucking problem ever in the au. at least the ones that arent cause by r*fal
uther pendragon was a general for king gorlois of camelot until uther decided the crown was shiny enough to start a coup over. he was helped by merlin and later nimue and also uh his Epic Cool Fire Powers
he married igraine. not because he believes in marriage or anything this man is Completely sterile. he just thinks her kids are cool. he might be a dragon in human form
their names are morgause and cecilia and while morgause is fucking Rabid (aka your average young girl) cecilia is older and also Actually Cares her dad got butchered by some GUY. uther doesnt seem to register this he just thinks shes shy (even after 20+ years of being her stepfather)
at some point uthers hoarding behavior extends to Collecting behavior and he decides he wants another kid ([igraine voice] like to hang out with?? [uther voice] yeah) anyway here's alessandra of camelot and.
at this point i think its just going to be an entire recap of the pendragons family history in bullet point form. so. find the rest under the cut. if you dont want to its ok ily anyway stay safe 🥰
years go by and the girls grow up and igraine is still longsuffering and uther is still. idk hes weird. hes a weirdo. hes my funny grandpa guy if you know succession hes like logan. with fire powers. anyway morgause marries king lot of orkney (or oakwood. maybe) and alessandra falls in love with one of her father's knights, ector 🥰
storian better write ector a good ending bc hes has to ask uther for his daughter's hand in marriage. (morgause's marriage was a kept arrangement by gorlois) anyway poor guys sweating in his boots ready to be run through with his own sword and turned into a shish kebab. but it works out well bc uther has a Massive soft spot for his kids
morgause and alessandra all have happy(ish, in morgs case) lives with their husbands and have kids etc etc. morgause is also planning lot's death and manipulating the knight (lamorak) shes having an affair with to do the killing but thats neither here nor there and shes a girlboss anyway 🥰
INTERLUDE ONE: WHOSE DAMN BABY IS THIS
in order of uh. whats the word. Birthing theres alessandras first (and arguably Only) son kay. Japeth kay pendragon, to be specific. hes the oldest and hes everyones golden boy hes strong and clever and 🥰🥰🥰 UTHER'S HEIR TO THE THRONE. all caps bc this is a surprise tool that will help us later. or not if you like know whos the next king of camelot 💀
next up, a few months later, is morgauses firstborn, gawain [middle name] pendragon. of orkney. he is as rabid as his mother used to be and also he and kay shared a crib/bedroom/home for basically their entire lives theyre basically like brothers if brothers were Obsessed with you. gawain is kind of. if youve watched hannibal he is like hannibal. but louder and worse. (how is kay so normal genuinely like)
and then Immediately after him (or like. five minutes) heulwen pendragon of orkney. shes more of the brains of the operation. she actually Thinks about things for more than one second before deciding to disembowel the problem away. she isnt opposed to horrific violence though. poison is usually just cleaner.
and immediately after Her is ceridwen pendragon of orkney. a little copy of her mother 🥰 although slightly more impulsive. always trailing behind heulwen, more of the Doer to her sister's Planner
Hell Triplets Hell Triplets Hell Triplets H
theres a lull for a few years, and then agravain pendragon of orkney is born. and he is born rather frail and sickly and honestly king lot is kind of disgusted by it. Eugh how DARE this son be chronically ill!! Stick Him In The Attic Where I Cant See Him!!!! imo morgause shouldve killed lot right then and there but ig shes more patient than i am. puberty will hit ags like a truck tho he'll be Massive. but for now hes mostly [agravain voice] mamMa, why cant i play outside like the other children? 🥺🥺🥺
3 years later and out pops gaheris of orkney. hes a lot more. Abled than agravain,,,,,, at First. heulwen and ceridwen do something Unspeakable to this poor infant and now one of his arms is longer than the other. king lot is disappointed yet again. gaheris doesnt talk much and he greatly prefers trying to burn ants (and small animals. and his siblings) with magnifying glasses. hes awful to be around.
INTERLUDE TWO: THE ARTHUR PROBLEM
so far i have neglected to mention cecilias love life for one reason. she didnt have one. until a handsome young seer from someplaceinthewoods strolls in and storians point if there was ever a time for weirdly ominous music to start playing it would be here and now. this seers name is Arthur (currently the first). he doesn't know it yet but falling in love with cecilia is going to be the Worst Decision Of Their Entire Lives.
shortly after a whirlwind romance they settle down, get married, try for kids, the usual. all this while though good ol arthur 1 has been having some pretty,,,,, Troubling dreams. ones that say cecelia will bear a cursed child who will one day bring ruin to the woods and its very dramatic tbh. arthurs worried, though. very worried. dreams arent just dreams when youre a seer. and cecelias just announced she's pregnant.
[REDACTED]
cecilia is dead, arthur is executed for treason and murder, alessandra adopts her dead sisters newborn but cant even give him cecilias name because uther needs a scapegoat. anyway say hello to arthur proper everyone. the arthur we all know and love(????)
alessandra, ector, and the family move out to nottingham where theres some Nice Peace And Quiet And Zero Gruesome Murder Whatsoever. unfortunately kay is still uthers heir so the old man would like him in camelot. for his education, yknow. teach the boy useful things! like stabbing and maiming.
arthur grows up um. averagely in nottingham. yea his cousins all think hes cursed and stay as Far away from him as possible and/or bully him (without kay getting on their case about it) but at least he's got grisella around! and merlin's new ward, callis,,,, although she doesnt seem to like him that much.
kay goes to sge and all. gawain and his sisters do too. although how on Earth they got into the school for GOOD,,,, idk. [coughcough] king lot [cough]. they have fun, make memories, Dont get horrifically transformed into animals or plants. kays amazing but how in earth did the orkneys survive. beats me
PART TWO: THE CALIBURN DILEMMA
and then uther just fuckin Disappears. is he dead? has he abdicated? is he being imprisoned by nimue at the bottom of the lake for being too old? who knows! but that leaves the throne Wiiiide open for an 18yo kay to move in. the people love him anyway hes nicer than uther and less murderous than uther and is generally more. Good. which is something camelot has been Severely missing for the past,,,,,,, idk 30? years
so the pendragons host this fun cool coronation tournament and kay can have His Special Day and show off his skills🥰🥰 but Uh Oh! someones forgotten his sword on the trip from nottingham! oh Arthur you silly goose [laugh track] now How will kay compete?? you better go find another sword Right Away!
arthur what are you doing. yes that sword in the square is abandoned but. no why are you pulling it from the stone. arthur did you read the plaque under it Arthur No Arthur Stop ARTHUR DONT PRESENT IT TO KAY OH NO
so this is how arthur starts a civil war by running an errand. turns out the sword was caliburn, gorlois's family sword, aaaaand its been enchanted to only be drawn by the legitimate heir of gorlois. And Guess Who That Isn't. so kay is. torn between family loyalty and. Everything He's Been Raised For and the kingdom is about to tear itself apart between supporters of kays reformation and believers in the old rule.
similarly, the pendragons are torn apart. the orkneys already saw arthur as a threat, barely part of the family at all. especially gawain, who loves kay an. unhealthy amount. and basically offers to carve arthur from gut to gullet. this does not help their straining relationship.
kay chooses arthur.
he gives up his claim on the crown and tries to convince himself he did the right thing by giving the throne back to the family his grandfather usurped. but he did saddle a 12 year old with the reign of a kingdom so until he's old enough, arthur needs a regent, and,,,, well,,,,
PART THREE: THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL
so when arthurs 15 he gets shipped off to sge. joining him are callis, gaheris, and gareth
INTERLUDE THREE: GARETH
like two years after arthur is born morgause has her last kid. aka gareth. and then she causes a little battle to happen in which king lot is killed by lamorak and she becomes the sole ruler of. whatever kingdom shes in. probably oakwood.
PART THREE: THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL (cont'd)
and its pretty shit for arthur ngl. hes pathetic. hes also a middle schooler. hes a repressed bisexual with a family history of alcoholism and mental illness. and now hes going to be turned into a newt [stares depressedly out of rainy window]
so he turns to literally the only person who can Probably help him AND doesnt hate his guts. aka callis 🥰 read my fic. do it now. basically she says yes tho. and then they have study group together until callis's roommate evanore (nora for short) gets suspicious and follows cal and finds out and callis convinces nora to blackmail them.
under pretense of getting callis to do her homework for her nora joins the study group (the real reason is arthur is Deeply pathetic and needs to be studied like a bug). their other roommates aleksander and george join the study group. nora's forest group member robin joins the study group. robin's roommates castor and pollux join the study group. gareth joins the study group. gaheris does not.
upon event of trial by tale nora and arthur have festered a rivalry that results in them having a Deeply petty fistfight in the woods and they are Both sent out relatively early. later nora asks him to teach her how to swordfight well. arthur does not know how to swordfight well. they become good friends.
we knows about the lance gwen arthur love triangle thing so ill skip it. snow ball happens. lance dances with gwen. arthur needs to have a cry about it so he runs off into the blue forest to have hysterics. he may or may not make out with aleksander about it (long story). they never speak to or make eye contact with each other again for 20 solid years. aleksander is somehow still tedros's godfather.
the next two years is full of magic and wonder and many many nosebleeds. nora undergoes character growth. arthur degrades. fourth year quests are assigned!!! 🥰 somehow he manages to get gwen to come back with him to camelot. callis is regretting her decision to be his secret wingwoman.
INTERLUDE FOUR: WHAT HAPPENS IN CAMELOT STAYS IN CAMELOT, or EVELYN PART ONE
in the meantime while kays been regent and preparing camelot for arthur's reign, he hires diplomat constantin sader to smooth over remaining resentment, as well as to reestablish ties to (ever) kingdoms gorlois had once allied with. constantin brings along his daughter (because storian knows she needs to learn Something. like responsibility)
this daughter is evelyn sader. and her father was right. she Does learn something. its definitely not responsibility. she takes one look at camelots gilded castle and decides that one day she is going to be queen.
and so begins the most baffling period in kays whole life, when evelyn decides her easiest path to success is to woo him and get him to betray arthur, who he was willing to give up his entire future for. i never said she learned how to be Smart. maybe she shouldve paid more attention to constantin, who knows.
and i Did say kay was clever but also he's been through a lot. the closest thing he has to an actual friend is gawain and. Uh. Yeah. so when evelyn strolls in and tells him hes Working too hard 🙄 Ugh come on we're getting you Out of this stuffy office!! and manic pixie dream girlfailures her way around his life, weeeeellll hes a little bit. 🥺👉👈
odd couple if ive ever seen one. she weasels his way into her life and attaches herself to his family and by the time constantin realizes what shes trying to do shes beloved by the pendragons. constantin shakes his head in disappointment. This Girl. Whatever Will He Do With Her? How Did He Get Here?
PART FOUR: MORGAN LE FAY IS NOT RELATED TO ARTHUR IN THE SLIGHTEST
someone who is Also regretting her life choices is nora, who has just found out shes going to lead her friends to overthrow and/or attempt murder upon dear sweet arthur. this Definitely violates the bro code even more than arthur stealing gwen from lance (although. how weak does your game have to be to lose to ARTHUR.)
nora waffles about for a few weeks while her quest group (alek, george, callis, and castor+pollux) starts to disband. george leaves to be a pirate. callis is [REDACTED]. castor+pollux were ditched Ages ago. nora and aleksander put their big brain heads together and have a Massive thinking session and the best they can come up with to both Not fail And not piss off arthur is to. be in disguise. also it Would help the lil guy out 🥰 make him seem cooler for beating his Big Bad Nemesis
it starts with getting a man on the inside. nora knows something of swordfighting so its up to her to sidle up to arthur and lie through her teeth about why she wants to be his knight. she physically cannot lie. arthur is exceedinly optimistic and has the deepest faith in everyone. nora is introduced as sir lionel, newest knight of the newly formed round table. leo for short.
soon enough, though, leo/nora finds out that theres trouble in paradise for the newly betrothed couple. probably the biggest open secret in camelot. because she's so philanthropic she decides she might as well buy them time to sort it out before they go off and get hitched together for the rest of their lives. its definitely because them being unstable leads to the woods being unstable and its a whole lot of politics she doesnt want to untangle. its definitely not because she wants to be Nice. thats absurd.
so leo is like hey gwen. lance. what the FUCK. and theyre like haha. we dont know :) and leos like well you Better figure SOMETHING out. gwen youre Literally getting married in like a month just tell him before arthur embarrasses himself. and gwen is like ohh well 🥺👉👈 ill Try my best i swear. spoiler she Doesn't. and the wedding is almost upon them and leo just decides Ok You Know What and puts on a veil and wig and dresses up like a cool enchantress tm and crashes the wedding in the middle of the vows
absolute chaos. george got his pirate buddies to raid shit and its fun. and lowkey the orkneys are in on this so they stop/misdirect the guards somehow. aleksander just wanders around in a mask and stares Directly at gwen like :| :/ :\ and shes like I Am Looking Away. arthurs has no idea whats going on or who these people are but he just assumes well. hes got nemeses now! fuck!
cue fourish years of arthur holding off the wedding until he can hunt down morgan le fay and her henchman mordred. (and gwen trying to work up the spine to tell him she doesnt and never loved him) but to track down an enchantress he needs a full round table of knights so he goes out and collects a bunch :]
INTERLUDE FIVE: ARTHUR FUNNYMAN AND HIS FRIENDS WHO REALLY AREN'T AROUND FOR HIM
first knight is bedivere 🥰. arthur and kay go riding off in a desert somewhere, find a giant who tries to kill them, almost get killed by said giant, and then are saved when the giant gets a spear through the eye and falls over to dramatically reveal this cool mercenary guy with a metal hand and honestly love at first sight for kay. they become besties 4 lyfe 🥰💗
(evelyn doesnt mind. shes trying to hook up with gawain anyway but (un)luckily gawain is 1) a firm believer in the bro code 2) dense as a brick wall. i dont get it either but i guess theres something in the camelot water. Gawain of All People,,,,,, well i mean she likes R*fal so)
second knight is lucan who is bediveres brother. he sure exists! bootlicker tho. theyve been wandering around as swords for hire ever since they left their home kingdom so when arthur offers them a Stable job lucan jumps at the chance. bedivere too but mostly because kay is hot
third knight is actually gareth, surprisingly. while his older brothers were suffering themselves to be arthurs knights (or rather. doing it because kay told them to), gareth is more of the bootstrap mindset. so hes a kitchen boy in camelot castle for a good while unbeknownst to his brothers. then arthur holds a tournament (great track record with those, huh) to find good knights and gareth signs up under a fake name and quickly beats everyone up and gets to the final round where he has to duel gawain. gareth breaks his brothers nose and arm and wins and gawain is So proud of him 🥰 violence is the only language he speaks and gareth sure became fluent
i mean theres like way more knights they collect like percival and lamorak and dinadan. but the last one i have a story for is galehaut. hes kind of the leader of an army, could be a king but idk, self proclaimed at the very least. anyway he and his bestie/blood brother bertilak decide it would be fun to attack arthur. (bertilak might also be there because leo/morgan paid him to start some trouble. or scare gwen into dying of a heart attack Really that girl is. equally stubborn and spineless at the same time.) anyway they have a big battle but then galehaut sees lance hacking into his soldiers, drenched in blood, and is Immediately overcome with 😳homosexuality😳 to the point where he just surrenders and pledges himself to arthur so he can hang out with lance all the time. go gayboy!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
INTERLUDE SIX: GAWAIN GAWAIN HOMOSEXUAL GAWAIN
while galehaut is falling in love with lancelot (real girl magnet lance is.) bertilak is meanwhile just being a nuisance by Not dying and also blending into the grass. hes green. hes a knight. he cant die. get it. Anyway at some point who interrupts his cloudwatching but our own favorite rabid orkney gawain [boo] to stab him a whole bunch of times. bertie is Also not immune to hot murder man covered in blood 😳 and immediately pretends to die whereupon after the battle he is put on a plank and put in the castle basement i Guess.
like an hour later arthur and co and galehaut are having a feast to celebrate their new partnership. which is Immediately interrupted by bertilak crashing through the door and Demanding someone tries to kill him. well not really he just says a blow for a blow and Arthurs like ugggghhhhhh Fine. ill do it.
and then gawain just shoves the runt aside and blacks out and chops berties head off. dw he gets better 🥰 and bertilak is like omggg 😳🥰 [twirls hair] youre soooo strong sir gawain will you come by my place in a year 🥺👉👈 so i can chop your head off 🤗🤪 (smth smth the rituals are intricate smth)
this post is long enough as is so if you know the story of the green knight its about the same except with more bisexuality. yes i said homosexual in the title but yk its for the joaks tm. if you Dont know the story then. uh.
gawain goes to find bertie. stops by some guys house. guy is like "ill go hunting and bring you whatever i catch and you also have to give whatever you catch". gawain and guys wife immediately try to make out. guy comes home and gawain makes out with him. repeat scenario two more times. gawain receives magic scarf or belt from guys wife that will help him not die. gawain goes to green knight castle, turns out berties been guy the whole time. bertie swings the axe, gawain flinches, bertie laughs and does it again, only to just give him a tiny nick. gawain is kind of disappointed ngl 😔 but hey. free boyfriend!
PART FIVE: SOMETHING HAPPENS AND MORGAN IS GONE AND CONVENIENTLY LEONORA HAS DECIDED TO SETTLE DOWN AND DISAPPEARS
yeah. ill be honest there are still gaps in this post that Would be filled if leo was a pendragon. guess thats a recap for another day. anyway arthur almost marries gwen but then during the whatsit. bachelor party he and grisella have a Moment. thanks robin for chads existence. youre his godfather now. arthur marries gwen two days later so i guess we cant All have good things
whats Also been happening is that evelyns been trying harder to get kay to overthrow arthur. yknow in an omg he messed up so bad with the morgan thing! you should kill him 🥰 omg no im Joking kay ugh lighten Uppp 🤪 but no really you should kill him 💀 im JOKINGGG 🤗
girlfailure. arthur catches wind of this and how kay hasnt really discouraged her or anything (tbf kay hears shit like this All the time from his cousins. literally every day. all the time. everyone just fucking hates arthur.) and arthurs just like What The Hell Man. Its Her Or Me and kay is immediately like well 😬 sorry evie its been fun. and then evelyn goes to sulk with the orkneys and makes out with gawain about it. hell of a rebound choice ig
(she also disappears to foxwood. its actually rather suspicious. i wonder what she could be doing over there wink wink nudge nudge)
but after that it all seems like smooth sailing for arthur. his subjects seem to Finally trust him, hes fresh out of the hot new fairytale, hes proven himself to all the woods, and now hes got a baby girl on the way 🥰
wait. baby girl? hold on that doesn't seem ri
INTERLUDE SEVEN: THE GREAT ROYAL ACCIDENTAL MISGENDERING
so arthur and gwen welcome into the world their new firstborn child, Although theyre keeping any announcement all hushed up until the christening (does sge Have jesus christ? the rhianing. no rhian doesnt resurrect. WELL,)
but i mean the royal rot gets it out that the baby is a girl. this was the point in time when the royal rot actually Had any sort of trustworthiness. people counted on them to tell the whole truth and nothing But the truth but em. well.
constantin's since retired so arthur calls in his son august instead and tells him to paint the kids coronation portrait bc arthurs still hung up on His. august is a little shit about it tho, horribly mysterious and refuses to answer questions, and slowly the portrait turns into that of,,, a Boy??? a bit something like this 🥰. and arthur and gwen are Very confused but august is just like Oh Whatever Could This Mean 🤗 One Hundred Gold Pieces Please (or however much his commission rate is)
[arthur voice] I Guess We Have A Son Now???? and theres a Massive scramble to correct. Everything. birth certificates. the announcements. court gossip. And They Havent Picked Any Boy Names.
so now literally everyone in the family is just lazer eyed (especially gawain. for some reason. he already has his Own kids he couldve named them gawain if he wanted to but Noooo. henec and Gingalain for Them.) and honestly theyre brawling for Their choices to be the new lads name. but for once neither gwen Nor arthur are pushovers and they stand their ground. but to appease the family they Do agree to give him middle names.
the only one keeping a level head is grisella,,,,, who has been suspiciously absent for. oh. about six months. she Says its because her sister was giving birth but um. doesnt ella look a bit exhausted? im sure thats Nothing though 🥰 shes pretty much the Only one who pays gwen any mind and helps her out with dealing with the baby and all of that. Women Support Women 😤😤😤 and she doesnt get kicked out bc thats bullshit ([gwen voice] you really know what you're doing [grisella voice] 👁️_👁️ Uh.)
its actually Grisella who comes up with a Nice name for the lil guy. tedros :] you could call him teddy for short! shortly after arthur and kay Finally manage to wrangle their cousins and decide on middle names. they are um. not as good choices as tedros.
but even so, the christerhianing goes on without a hitch and the whole of camelot gets to meet [deep breath] Tedros Cecil Japeth-Kay Uther Kyduan Lancelot Gareth Pendragon. (teddy really sounds better dont it.)
INTERLUDE EIGHT: WHAT HAPPENS IN FOXWOOD STAYS IN FOXWOOD, or EVELYN PART TWO
so since shes been kicked out and banished from camelot, evelyn decides to take matters into her own(ish) hands and. Sulk in foxwood. really she is a girlfailure. but then she finds out she's pregnant and hatches a devious plan to. spend however many years raising this kid to Eventually overthrow arthur(s kid). shes patient i guess! queen of the long haul. i mean she spent at Least 5 years pestering kay to Maaaybe consider stabbing arthur 🥰 just a Little Bit cmooonn
maybe the mistral sisters are involved. maybe they dont exist. who the fuck knows. what Does happen is evelyn gives birth to a beautiful baby [REDACTED] and a pile of eels. she names the pile of eels after her ex and hates it for the rest of her life. go worstie. the other more normal baby grows up more beloved except for when it sets things on fire sometimes. i dont think evelyn should be a mother.
raising children to one day overthrow their uncle/cousin is tough work. even tougher when one of them is a pile of eels. and it cries and wants to be loved. god how Awful right 🙄 listen if youre going to have a pile of eels you might as well be Prepared to love it. sorry japeth 😔 but eventually evelyn gets so fed up by this (and the whole. other kid setting things on fire) that she decides to dump the twins at arbed house and peaces out to mooch off her brother august
arbed house is also Largely a scam run by a never aka dean brunhilde who just gets rich parents to pay Ludicrous amounts for her to "Make Their Evil Children Good" when all she does is treat them with human decency and teach them how to swear. shes incredible. rhian and japeth are in Great hands
INTERLUDE NINE: KAY PENDRAGON GETS BACK WITH HIS EX DESPITE EVERYONE TELLING HIM IT'S REALLY A TERRIBLE IDEA
exactly what it says on the tin. evelyn gets kicked out from sge by r*fal and shes Blue now. so ofc she goes crawling back to the pendragons because Man. Work??? shes not Meant for this life! shes meant to lounge about all day and be someones hot trophy wife who gets doted on head and foot. as she should ig! somehow she weasels her way back into meeting kay again who is much more suggestible this time. because
its about the time when arthur has grown both More cocky and More insecure. hes close to suspecting gwen of something but currently hes just going on quests to Destroy Evil and erasing any memory of uthers reign and all that. and kay finds it a bit unnerving. arthurs growing rash and swaying to anti-never sentiment, and weeelll. didnt evelyn warn him that arthur wouldnt be a good king?
so when they meet up again its Kay who brings it up and evelyn Immediately pounces on that doubt and starts prying deeper. she also neglects to mention the kids she abandoned. but yk she just like nooo kay Please keep talking about how your brother isnt the best and you were wrong to side with him
they see each other in secret but it really ramps up as arthur gets more. suspicious. he starts doubting gwen, evelyn starts solidifying her relationship with kay. now theyre married and have Another kid, a little girl named katherine. evelyn thinks Finally shes got a hold on kay, all she has to wait is for arthur to make just One mistake. just One more crack in the pillar to make the house fall down,,,,, and well,, doesn't arthur want Proof of gwen's betrayal?
PART SIX: THE HEIRS OF UTHER PENDRAGON
it doesnt take much to tip arthur off the edge. all evelyn needed was an anonymous letter, a little recording marble of gwen sneaking away, and arthur's on the warpath. he grows demanding and paranoid and well. we know how it ends. he disguises himself and finds out it was Lancelot gwen chose over him. and when he gets back gwens Gone and he puts a death warrant on Both their heads.
evelyns plan backfires though. not only does kay Not decide arthurs gone too far, if anything he sticks even Closer by his brothers side. Someone has to take care of him, kay reasons. someone has to look out for him. someone has to Stay.
bedivere doesnt see it that way. he already had waning loyalty towards arthur, but this is the last straw. he asks kay to come with him, but when hes refused bedivere walks out the door and never returns to camelot. arthur puts a warrant on his head.
arthur starts drinking, starts seeing enemies around every corner, in everyones face. he starts to listen to bad advice, people who tell him only what he wants to hear, that it's all because of hidden evil, you see. It Needs To Be Eliminated.
kay watches as his brother starts spiraling and he's Helpless. grisella watches as her friend banishes anyone who argues back and she doesn't know what to do. tedros watches as his father slowly kills himself day after day and he's only a child.
arthur hears word that nevers have set up a base near camelot, that theyre planning an attack. he rallies whatever knights he has that haven't left him yet and rides out under cover of night, ready to defeat his enemies. and he does. he and his knights raze buildings to the ground, torch the land, slaughter the men, and the women,, and,,,,, the children.
this isn't a never army base. this is a Village.
but it's just collateral damage, arthur tells himself. they should've made it more clear who they Weren't. his heart is cold, eyes steeled. a pendragon at last.
kay leaves the moment he hears the news. arthur barely notices his absence. kay goes home to his family, holds his daughter, and while his wife pretends to comfort him she smiles. evelyn is patient, and evelyn has won. all that's left now is for kay to be the Hero, to save camelot, be the king he was Meant to be. but she puts too much faith in him. kay picks up his sword, kisses his girls goodbye, and rides off into the woods.
PART SEVEN: UNREST AND REBELLION
nothing happens in the woods with no consequence. since news of arthur's attack spread, the divide between evers and nevers has only grown wider. evil rallies for morgan le fay to return, the old nemesis of arthur to foil him once more. but morgan never existed, and only one man lives who knows it.
aleksander scourie, now royal advisor to netherwood's (alleged) witch-queen, has long since put his fighting days behind him. but he has never been one to stand by when he is called. he sends aid to a rebellion brewing from the survivors of the village massacre. he gathers up the turncoat knights, anyone still willing to face arthur in battle.
but kay has always been and always will be arthur's only brother. and kay cannot, no matter what, raise his sword against him. he cannot abide arthur's actions. but neither is he brave enough to fight back. use me as a scapegoat if you must, says kay. blame me for whatever happens to him. but i cannot kill my brother.
there is an old title, some say, the mantle of a guardian who keeps the balance in the woods. aleksander finds it darkly fitting when they bestow it upon him. they make their final stand at four point. don't nevers always die at the end of fairytales? mordred aleksander puts on his mask anyway.
arthur doesn't believe he'll die that day. after all, he's on the side of good, and good always triumphs over evil. even so, he keeps his hand on excalibur's hilt as he rides to four point, heart cold. eyes steeled.
it's a bloodbath.
people say no one knows who killed arthur. this is a lie. the real truth is that they don't want to admit that for the first time, an ever Lost.
but the question still lingers. did evil really Win?
PART EIGHT: WHAT NEXT?
who knows, really?
maybe you should find that out yourself :)
wink wink nudge nudge my askbox is open
#sge#school for good and evil#the school for good and evil#tedros of camelot#rhian of foxwood#japeth of foxwood#TECHNICALLY. they are all in here#miles speaks#miles writes#if you finish this whole thing i am kissing you on the forehead and hugging you warmly

Sanders Sides D&D 2
Ooh fresh take: Jan is virge’s patron and that’s why there’s beef
Also: Jan is some sort of fae related being
Jan: i need you to do something for me Virgil: no Janus: that's not how this works!! Virgil: watch me :P
Okay so I was thinking of Patton as a cleric cuz ooh healer however, Patton as a Druid makes me so happy
I want logan to have Rage
(Also that could tie nicely in an arc about Logan learning to accept feelings)
but barbarian logan is going to be a scholar again and is gonna be smort
bc hes logan. he cant be not smart
Oh I figured he’d be the bbeg that eventually joins the party (hurt/comfort baybee!)(Remus)
he was the bbeg but then joined the party as a bardbarian or just a bard
plus, actual bard who accidentally casts vicious mockery instead of bardic inspiration
Side note: please include a scene where Remus attempts to seduce the dragon
also with this second au, i can start them at like level 5 so people can multiclass
Pat as cleric/druid
gasp logan as artificer/barbarian
janus sorcerer/rogue
because basically everything but alchemist would work well with barbarian, but alchemist feels very Logan
bc mad scientist being actually mad
alchemist logan making an experimental potion and going "here im not sure what this does but im sure its fine! someone drink it"
Remus does it voluntarily, but Logan usually tries to get Roman to drink it
Virgil will occasionally drink it when he's on his last legs and is just like.....100% done with the party
remus as a wild magic path barbarian and just fucking teleporting or doing something equally ridiculous whenever he rages
Oh my god Remus with rage would be a force to be reckoned with
You gotta describe the first time he goes into a rage really dramatically
obviously virgil is trying to "escape" his patron, Janus (really just do whatever he says to not do out of spite)
Eldritch knight roman
Feywild warlock virgil
hey so in the second d&d au, should roman and remus be actual full siblings but like remus went darkside and like romans just trying to get back at him for putting a dark stain on the family name
hey hey hey what about warforged Logan? (essentially a robot)(so like "i dont feel anything" becoming real)
okay hear me out. elf roman and elf base simic hybrid remus. so like maybe the reason remus went darkside was experimentation? so like. hes elf but special
FALLEN AASIMAR VIRGIL
virgil just transforming in the middle of a combat scenario and like his eyes turn into black pits and flightless skeletal wings appear on his back and like everyone near him has to make a charisma check and like he deals extra necrotic damage
Pat is the one human stuck in a band of misfits
so with it, roman would be a full elf, and remus would be an elf that has tentacles bc octopus
So robot logan
i meant literally he doesnt feel anything
like he has all the emotions, but he doesnt physically feel the need to like eat or sleep or stuff like that
he just.....he pretend he don't have the feelings.....but he do.....he feel so much and he hides it all in his littol mechanical heart <3
plus......if he warforged, then like.....AC huge
he stands in front of friends.....he protecc...."no, i don't have feelings, i am physically incapable of affection" but he do!! he do! he take hits for them because he do!! he care so much
Bro he spouts all this and then he uses a reaction to dive in front of someone and everyone’s just like oh
LIKE ROMAN STILL BEING MEAN TO LO BC HE THINKS HE DOESNT HAVE FEELINGS BECAUSE HE DOESNT HAVE A HEART BUT HE DOES
hey hey everyone needs to grow
and logan standing up for himself and other people stepping in and saying no stop thats not right
plus if canon wont give me roman facing the consequences of his actions towards Logan......
but also Roman learning how to properly handle his own emotions and how he interacts with others
logan who doesn't view himself as anything more than a machine to be useful to others
the party giving logan love and affection until he slowly learns his own worth as a person
Roman and Logan not getting along (maybe Roman has a Lore reason to distrust Warforged, maybe not) and slowly learning to trust each other
when Logan is feeling real down or having some issue, Roman actually comes through to help him, showing how far both characters have come
Okay yes but also can we please give Roman more confidence than canon? Like I’m sooooo sick of low self esteem being played for laughs or just being really really sad
this boy is going on a mission and will slap his brother upside the head and tell him to shut tf up remus youre not a monster just come back home and he will do it alone if need be
OKAY SO WHAT IF HE ORIGINALLY WENT ON THE QUEST JUST TO STOP REMUS ONCE AND FOR ALL BC ROMAN THOUGHT HE WAS A MONSTER, BUT ALONG THE WAY, AND AFTER LOGAN, HE CAME TO REALIZE THAT NO, JUST BECAUSE REMUS (AND LOGAN) ARE DIFFERENT, THEY ARENT MONSTERS, JUST DIFFERENT
AND LIKE IN THE FINAL PUSH TO MAKE REMUS JOIN BACK WITH HIS BROTHER, ROMAN IS PROJECTING HIS OWN FEELINGS ONTO REMUS AND EVERYONE IS LIKE WOW BRO YOU GOOD THERE, BUT ITS A BIG MOMENT FOR LOGAN, ROMAN, AND REMUS
im unsure as to how, but it happened when he was an older teen/young adult. a simic scientist either picked him (read: kidnapped), or remus volunteered (potentially to escape court life, unaware what exactly the experiment was going to do to him physically
bc also, remus and roman are royalty
so like. how best to get at the nobes/royalty/rich famous people than by turning their kid into a monster
wait, wait, wait, because i'm lowkey a sucker for this trope, but i'm not sure if it fits Remus: the experiments left him with some fairly significant physical pain/uncontrolled magical reactions. through some combo of trying to deal with that and trying find a cure for his pain, he keeps like....absolutely wrecking random towns on accident but also deliberately wrecking certain places looking for either a) vengeance on the guy(s) responsible or b) someone who can make the pain stop
SO LIKE. WILD MAGIC BARBARIAN DOING WEIRD SHIT TO HIM WHENEVER HE RAGES
AND LOGAN COULD MAYBE HELP WITH THE PAIN AND SHIT
BC ALCHEMY
Yknow, for simplification purposes, we could say the True Bbeg just gave Remus lycanthropy and Remus hasn’t managed to control it yet
lycanthropy but simic shit?
Mr. I-Don't-Have-Feelings sees the poor dude in pain and also Roman in emotional pain from seeing his brother in pain and is absolutely like "i must resolve this like right now, immediately" because he definitely doesn't hate seeing his friend suffering, or his friend's brother whom he's just met
he definitely doesn't relate at all to the idea of someone else shaping your body and absolutely does not sympathize with Remus's plight
i was thinking the grappling thing and either manta glide or the ability to breathe underwater for the simic stuff, but like he doesnt have control over the tentacles yet?
Manta glide seems like we could have fun battle scenes
he just jumps off a cliff to avoid mushy talk/dealing with his actions/roman
Roman: Remus just because you're a monster and though i wish i was an only child-- Remus, jumping off a cliff: byyeeeeee Patton: Roman, look what you did! Virgil: dammit jan what did you do? Janus: why do you think i had anything to do with that? im a fae, not a genie Logan, thinking: what an asshole. i wish i could do that
oh my god Logan always being tired mentally bc he cant sleep
Oh my gosh I love that. So Remus got kidnapped super young, (from royal family) they never found him, as a result Roman had to grow up super fast (side effect: lowkey inconsiderate and forgets to ask for others input). Meanwhile, Remus was experimented on by True Bbeg and came out with some trauma and super cool additives
yep! chronic pain and ptsd and all sorts of other shit!
so like, simic hybrids are usually created when they're adults. but what if the true bbeg decided to go younger to see what would happen, and thats why remus has chronic pain and stuff
he was still growing when his genes were spliced, so hes dealing with growth plates shifting and his body maturing and puberty and body changes and stuff
Pat is going to have a lighthearted story. Im saying that now. Hes the one without all the baggage
Sure, but his parents have to lowkey be the really kind people who are surprisingly always down for violence
everyone: multiple crises Pat: y'all need help Pat: love and affection in spades for his little band of misfits
Patton (which I think would be pretty simple, honestly he might just see danger and jump in and suddenly everyone in the party has Feelings)
Logan
Mhm. So how did he grow up? Was he just poof created? Wait
What if he was created by the king?
To make up for remuss disappearance
wait, wait....angst......he was created to fight (hence the barbarian stuff) but alchemy is his real passion
wait so like. a second son???
hes there to replace remus?
Yea! (But like in a sympathetic grief way) But that causes a bit of a complex in Roman and ergo Roman and Logan have a bit of a beef
okay so like. hes there to be a companion for roman, and like take remus' place, even though hes not actually in line for the throne?
LOGAN AS A KNIGHT
and just......the conflict of being created for a specific purpose (plus being, you know, robot and technically incapable of deviated from said purpose) vs the fact that he actually does have independent consciousness and like....wants to live life for himself
the parents made Logan a barbarian in hopes that him and Roman would be safe
okay. so logan was created by the king with the sole purpose to take remus' place as romans brother/companion, and to be his like guard? protector? and fight, but logan wants to be an alchemist and study shit
wait, wait, wait.....thinks about Asimov's Laws
he.....his first operative is protect (specifically protect Roman)
oh man. so hes literally just a shield
his second level operative is just like.....care for Roman's emotional well-being, but he doesn't really know emotions because he was kinda just spawned and nobody told him how
and he just....kind of....lets Roman treat him like garbage and take all his grief out on him because he's staunchly in denial of both having feelings or knowing how they work
Anyway Yea so Logan created by royal family in place of Remus which created angst between the two “brothers” and identity issues in Logan. Their arcs are learning how to healthily process emotions plus Roman apology and Logan commits to alchemy
So big question: why did virge make a deal?
Tricked
he gave janus his name
and instead of janus like killing him or whatever the fae do to people who break the rules of dealing with the fae, jan was like. hey. i'll give you magic, but do what i say
Janus is lawful neutral, but leans towards being selfish
hes self serving, but he has a strong set of morals and rules he follows
Tho I want to Virgil to also not be pushover so let’s say loophole happened and Jan has to stay with virge (hence why Jan is a part of the party)
okay so a couple of the rules are dont give a fae your true name and don't try to figure out their true name
So
what if virgil accidentally gave up part of his true name, and got stuck in the deal, but then figured out janus' true name
so in the same vein that janus had control over virgil, virgil now has more control over janus
he still gets his magic from janus, so he cant break free completely, but virgil has more freedom and can occasionally tell janus what to do or when to shove it
there should a running gag where virge can explain how he learned Jan’s true name but Jan can make something loudly censor him every time
(he learned his name bc once he heard janus practicing his evil genius voice and talking to himself in the mirror and janus said his true name)
so maybe janus sent virgil on the quest to protect a town or stop something related to remus, but virgil dragged him along
he might just be trying to protect a town thats close to a ley line, or something fae-related, and they just happen upon the whole thing
janus is selfish. but lawful vs chaotic is where he comes through, in morals vs doing whatever. janus has a strong set of loyalties to the fae, and to himself
so like....Remus is just too close to Jan's stuff and he wants to take him down
Virgil is just like....exhausted and said "fine, but if i gotta do this, you're coming, too"
or at least figure out a way to protect his place, even if it doesnt mean fully taking out remus. just moving him would work for jan
Janus: virgilllllllllll hes going to mess up my magic storage locker Virgil: Jan, its empty Janus: but its mine
Yea. Remus attacks a city away from the fae: Jan: Yknow I’m gonna sit this one out Virge: oh no you don’t, get up
Or
Janus vs Janice
so his real name is Janus, but Virgil calls him Janice
Virgil: This is Janice Janice: with a “U-S” Virgil: mhm, sure Jan
I'm a big fan of just like any of the old theory name being various aliases for Jan
Damien, Dante, Ethan, Declan, etc, etc

danny phantom season 2, ep 12-16 thoughts! these episodes, in comparison to the first 10 or so, felt way more laid back and low-stakes, which I appreciate sometimes. I didn't appreciate how lazy jack's halfa design was in masters of time, it made me so annoyed I redesigned it. 👎🏻 u_u
see prev episode thoughts in this tag <3
-'picking a fight with me and my upgraded form!' 'you upgraded to a mullet?' DANNNNY. YOU CANT SAY THAT TO TECHNUS. YOUVE HAD A MULLET TWICE NOW ('fun' split danny, and evil future danny BOTH HAD THEM). I HAVE THE RECEIPTS.
-danny seeing technus hurting valerie and yelling I AM GOING TO BREAK YOU IN HALF. SAMEEEE <3
-axion labs is now a part of vladco. FUCK YOU VLAD. hes not even really IN this episode, but just thought I'd throw out a nice fuck you anyway.
-'capable of blasting a single person into space in (2) minutes!' tucker. that would kill someone. i mean yeah they might get to space, but theres NO WAY THEY WOULDNT CATCH FIRE, OR THEIR ORGANS WOULDNT LIQUIFY BECAUSE OF THE STRAIN. THEY'D PROBABLY PASS OUT BEFORE THEN, BUT. ...no, okay, I get why vlad bought this company. this is RIGHT up his alley.
-danny KNOWS VAL DIDNT DO THIS, THAT SOMEONE STOLE THE SUIT. AND SPENDING ALL NIGHT CHATTING WITH HER. <3 and val is a 9TH DEGREE BLACKBELT?? danny's mom is, too!! omg and she hunts ghosts, his parents would love her. and her fav fruit is kumquat bc its a funny word. im so with danny val is amazing. I love her and I Do Not Want To Hear It From Sam.
-I knew danny wanted to be an astronaut, but the bowling tidbit is like. yes give me more useless info abt these characters, I love tiny details that make them feel more human, and im glad hes got hobbies aside from ghost stuff, we dont really see a lot of that!!! (I mean, we knew 'fun' danny from when he split himself in half liked bowling, so obv it makes sense he LIKES it, but hes very GOOD at it. so proud of him, bowling king) val calling him neil armstrong and them teasing each other. LOVE THAT.
-technus you are my favorite grandpa for setting this up. SAM WHY ARE YOU BEING SO CREEPY BE HAPPY FOR YOUR FRIEND!!! STOP SPYING ON THEM!!! who actually cares if technus did 'set them up' together, theyre having fun and enjoy each others company!!! 'you think the universe wants you two to be together?' 'i dunno, but maybe /I/ do!' EXACTLY DANNY!!! SOO TRUE.
-and valerie being happy sam said she wants to try and be happy for them and make room at the lunch table for them. and hugging sam over it. VAL NEEDS MORE FRIENDS.
-VAL GOING AFTER TECHNUS IN HER SUIT WITH (1) MILK, AND (1) TREE BRANCH AND KEYS!!!. I LOVE YOUUUU BEST GIRL. her new suit kicks ass
-dannys like 'HEY IM AN ASTRONAUT :D' AW. ...HES IN SPACE... the fact he's actually intending to give her the ring. with SAMS NAME ON IT?? IM CRINGING DANNY NO. YOU CANT DO THAT...thank god he didnt. thank god valerie cut it off and said they can just stay friends for now. tbh, they both have a lot on their plates!! they obv both still like each other...it can be a future thing!! when she knows about phantom! youre 14 theres no need to rush. I just want her to have friends and be happy :(
-...danny struggles to do (1) pull up. SAME. but all the ghost fighting in phantom form REALLY doesnt carry over at ALL? that sucks
-sam being as fit as she is, is not just a goth. shes a goth jock.
-honey I Shrank Our Kid, One of his Enemies, and his Bully: the episode
-dash's crush on phantom is So Obvious. fitness buddies :) watching them interact always makes me laugh. also, phantom, with PANTS. 'how many costume changes you gonna go through, what is this, vegas??' DASSH DJKSFHASKDF
-MADDIE GOING AFTER THE MOUSE WITH A BROOM, WHAT THE FUCK. AAAH. JUST BUY SOME KIND OF MOUSE TRAP.
-danny likes lime and vinegar chips. which sound very good.
-'our boy finally has the physical prowess of a 60 year old president!' ...poor danny LMAO
-'what's wrong with beauty pageants' oh tucker you sweet naïve child. what ISNT wrong with them. who approved this for a high school?? (I mean, yes. unfortunately child pageants exist, but...) also danny and tucker once again treating the pretty girls like objects. I need to meet the grown man who wrote this, I just want to talk...
-prince aragon's dragon form reminds me of maleficent (color scheme wise) which is always a bonus. considering the episode is called beauty marked, I feel like the sleeping beauty references are deliberate
-sam with the fake fangs. once again her accessories never miss. hate the 'not like other girls, girls who get sucked into this kind of thing are all shallow and all want to be carbon copies' bs tho.
-sam trying to be the Worst Bride, being rude as shit. DORA IS GOING TO GET KILLED. DID YOU MISS THE PART WHERE SHE SAID THE PRINCE WILL HAVE HER HEAD IF YOU ARENT THE IDEAL BRIDE. YOU /KNOW/ DANNY WILL COME SAVE YOU. JUST ACT CHILL UNTIL THEN. even if you were doing fine to get him to take off the crown, consider maybe not letting his poor sister get punished also?? sure, she could also take off the crown and has dragon powers, but did you know that for sure?? dora didnt even really realize it until you guys talked!! (or at least, she was scared to stand up to him. you had no guarantee she would...) but. good for dora. ANOTHER friendly ghost to add to the List :)
-tucker is so under appreciated in his time. if he was doing a tech-based campaign today he'd have a better shot. people in 2004 had NO IDEA how much tech would be a part of our day-to-day lives...altho. tbh if you're going to be running for student council president, maybe you should..focus on things to actually improve the school? since he's going for a tech angle, he could say like, he would be running fundraisers for the schools computers to be upgraded, etc? we've already SEEN he can be good at money-making entrepreneur type stuff!!
-oh my god wait. this episode is JUST YUGIOH?????! A REBORN PHAROH USING A TEENAGER AS A VESSEL?? YESSSSSS
-tucker using his new minion to feed him grapes and carry him. AND LOCUSTS ONTO THE BULLIES. I love how when he's possessed, he gains winged eyeliner.
-this episode is giving me big 'plankton makes everyone in bikini bottom his slaves and build monuments of him from the spongebob movie' vibes. and the pharaoh has a traitor who works for him? VERY big yugioh vibes. aknadin confirmed
-I like that danny is still completely exhausted after using ghostly wail. (still patiently waiting on him to get duplication)
-LOVE the fenton's 80s outfits. I get hes 14 and embarrassed by everything they do because theyre his parents, but. cmon, this is one objectively cool thing theyve done. love 80s fashion.
-...was vlad just standing on that streetlight waiting for danny to come out? how'd he know they'd be coming out the back? how long has he been up there???
-oh, wait, his ecto-acne has flareups? that SUCKS. danny was...well I dont want to say he was LUCKY HE HALF-DIED, but he was lucky his was pretty instant (I'm assuming that had to do with the power/scale of the portals being different?) I remember in the ep we met him, vlad made a point of saying he was stuck in a hospital for a long time, so. that really actually sucks and I feel bad. not that it excuses anything he's done...but like. it does suck.
-vlad being so sure danny wouldnt help him he made it somehow contagious to his friends to make sure he'd get help? danny is a nice boy, he wouldve helped if it was anyone else. the only reason he wouldn't have is because of the shit vlad did to him, on purpose. vlad 100% dug his own grave by being the biggest asshole, so it is very hard to feel bad for him.
-clockwork is back!!! and making danny learn lessons The Hard Way. Uhhh, okay. I kind of get Danny’s logic, that time traveling this far back would prevent vlad from becoming a halfa also, ergo no arch nemesis or ectoacne to worry about. But the fact that was basically the first solution Danny came up with to solve this problem is actually so funny. It’s so extreme
-APPRICIATION FOR THESE 80S LESBIAN BG CHARACTERS.
-vlad telling maddie in the lab (in the 80s) he has something he's wanted to tell her 'for a long time'...how long have they known each other? I assumed they met in college, since jack always calls vlad his college buddy/roommate, so jack and vlad for sure met in college, but did vlad know maddie longer? thats surprising if so. Tho we don’t know what year of college they’re in so they could mean they met as freshmen and a few years have past…speaking of maddie shes crushing the 80s look.
-vlad blames jack, but. maybe dont stick your face 2 inches from the portal??! THIS FEELS LIKE LAB SAFETY BASICS. IF SOMETHING HAS POTENTIAL TO BE DANGEROUS, DONT GET NEAR IT. WITH YOUR FACE UNPROTECTED IN ANY WAY. (altho jack didnt really give a Big Warning besides screaming BONZAI. so. also that, but cmon.) also, they need gloves, goggles, and to pull all of their hair back tbh. but fuck lab safety, I guess!
-cryyyyinnng at how lazy they were with jack's ghost form design, its just plasmius' design on jack!!! you couldve given him his own design!!
-there. I did that in about 10 minutes and its somehow less lazy than what made it into the show. embarrassing! better yet, I think the episode would've been better if maddie would've gotten the ectoacne. or maybe its just me, wanting to see her design! anyway. I'm sure people have already done redesigns of them both as halfas. I have to go look after I finish this watch through. Also mildly frustrated jacks resentment and bitterness is basically also a copy paste of vlads backstory. They’re different characters, I really don’t think jack would stew in bitterness and jealousy the same way vlad would!! I also don’t think he’d give up after one time of trying to hunt ghosts and getting laughed at. Our canon timeline says different…I dunno, I get it was for laughs, but I’m annoyed because the POTENTIAL this plot has…
-did vlad really wear a stupid cheese hat to his wedding. ok actually that kinda rules. and the cheese door knocker. the dairy-only buffet table. vlad still got rich, just on being the New Dairy King. (Assuming that means he owns a lot of dairy businesses?) ok! this actually is great. hope maddie isn't lactose intolerant!
-'no matter how hard I tried, I could never get rid of my ghost half, the half I knew Maddie could never accept' ohh, ouch, what a horrible thing to say to her HALF GHOST SON. 'YOUR MOM WILL NEVER ACCEPT YOU' BASICALLY.
-maddie strapping danny to the table with a lazer pointed at him in a secret lab she keeps from vlad that she makes a point of saying is sound proof so he can scream all he wants...CHRIST. DANNYS POOR PYSCHE.
-also, not to feel bad for alternate vlad (because, he did lie to maddie saying jack blames her and never wants to see her again...) but. being married to a woman 20+ years and she immediately goes back to jack? if she didnt love vlad and feels like she had to hide shit from him, and says she wasted her best years with him, WHY MARRY HIM. it feels like leading him on!!! cannot believe im feeling bad for vlad, but. this alternate timeline vlad is significantly Less Horrible than Our Vlad. did she not think she'd get funding for her ghost stuff? (which, fair assumption since they're considered 'ghost fanatics/nuts in canon...but...) why did she think jack or vlad would be her ONLY OPTIONS? be like your sister. be single. Actually, this au could’ve been really interesting if after the accident, vlad lied to her and said jack never wanted to see her again, but she stays single. Imagine how much that would bug vlad… like, in her mind, it was never a competition it was jack or no one type situation…
-danny being like 'leave him ALONE' this jack is a HOMEWRECKER, DANNY. let them go to court and settle this at the least. ...or just throw vlad into the portal. (100% human, defenseless vlad) CHRIST, MADDIE THATS BRUTAL. THATS MURDER.
-danny seeing his mom immediately accepting him and his dad being half ghosts in this universe, if I was him this would be a great sign that his universe's maddie would also.
-*maddie voice* "clockwork will help!" *2 seconds later, with clockwork* "I will Not Help." TOUGH LOVE KING. YES LET DANNY SEE THE SODA HIMSELF AND DEVOLP BETTER OBSERVATION SKILLS.
-when clockwork ""reset time to the way it was"" just before danny "meddled"" ...did he really erase a whole alternate timeline? ...damn. because maddie and danny both called it an alternate timeline by name, it splitting when the college incident went different, so it wouldnt have really mattered if he reset it, right. like because danny's timeline is on a different stream? why didnt clockwork just. show danny a replay and not Reset That Timeline. wh...I wonder how many people that Erased From Existence. Anyway! once again stating clockwork is casually terrifying!

Idk what's with ppl needing to be revisionist like, I'm Jewish and as a kid was able to acknowledge the issue and then just ignore the whole goblins thing to enjoy the story, the same way I put aside my issues with tolkein's dwarves to enjoy lotr. I noticed and criticized the house elves thing. But that doesn't mean that there was never any value to the Harry Potter series, the flaws in the books - whether elements of bigotry or just plot or worldbuilding stuff - dont erase that the series us actually good.
And I am highly skeptical of everyone jumping on the hate bandwagon focusing on the Harry Potter series over criticizing jk herself, and moreover specifically the *way* they're focusing on the series is, well. Basically saying it's cringy, was always bad, and if you go hey actually I like the books still and that's kinda a shitty attitude, they do that whole 'oh look at the angwy cringey stan getting angwy!!!' Bs that basically makes it seem like if you disagree with them it's not because you have an equally valid and differing pov, but that you're an immature cringey obsessed fan.
Like what's with the resurgence of finding it cringey for people to like stuff a whole lot? Ah I forgot we must all be respectable normal fans and not those icky fangirls. Yeah.
Like...the series isnt bad because its cringey or was all about marketing or whatever bullshit you're pulling out of your ass? Jk wanted to tell a story, and lots of people did and do still enjoy that story, and it's all highly personal whether one can enjoy the story still being aware of who she is and her views on a lot of things, or if one makes the decision to not read or enjoy it anymore.
Personally I feel uncomfortable thinking about rereading the books, but I still enjoy the story, despite the flaws. The same way I enjoy marvel stuff, and dragonriders of pern, and lotr, and pretty much a majority of the things I read, none of it is perfect, and none of the writers are perfect, either. I avoid stuff by osc but I never liked his stuff anyway? I think? And im not going to buy anything else harry potter related bc I dont want to give jk more money, and I'm mostly gonna ignore her bullshittery.
Im also not gonna tell anyone else what to do. And im not going to fucking bully other people for being into shit that I dont like or for being 'cringey' or being 'obsessed fans' or for not dropping something like a hot potato and joining in pretending theres no value in shit once it's been declared 'tainted', because yeah it all is, and the authors are shitty, and I still enjoy their works. It's easier when the author is already dead obvs.
But yeah, look, I was bullied in middle school for liking pokemon and dragons and cats, for being the weird obsessed kid, for drawing, for drinking apple juice when it wasnt cool. So. Im not interested in that kinda bullshit even if jk is a transphobe/terf/p.o.s., even if theres shit in the books that isnt great or is bigoted, bc half the time these people arent talking about that stuff! They just talk about the flaws that are also found in a lot of other stories! They're using this discussion and issue as an excuse to bully fans and that's not...what we should do..

i replayed kz again tonight and managed to beat it in 4 hrs instead of 11 !!! which is rly cool imo, i think i got a max of like 50 deaths or less for the full run ??? i was just playing regularly but usin the prism blade for the cool blood effects, not in speedrun mode for the counter, and i managed 2 drag my friend into hyperfixation hell with me :} but also i have some thoughts and opinions im not rly sure how to compile in a meaningful way, so here’s the like. pure brain-down-on-blog post version under the cut. if this gets auto-tagged into the real actual tag for this game im very sorry for my hubris im just. thinking emoji
so id like to start this with the final boss makes me SO sad :( like yeah she doesnt have much dialogue but idk she just makes me so sad. she’s so desperate and she Knows shes going to lose and im just like. no!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you’re so cool!!!!!!! Please Be My Friend We Can Work Together. I Know A Guy :c like usually final bosses are like weirdly emotional for me but she was just SO COOL and realizing like WAIT THIS BOSS OPERATES UNDER THE SAME RULES I DO was just like WOW even if as i kept dying (and i think i spent like... 3 hrs on the final boss alone lmao the first time, i killed her on my third attempt this run which was very cool of me) i finally realized that she IS pretty repetitive and got all her patterns n variables down super easy, but like, fighting another null who Should for all intents and purposes be just as absurd and powerful as i am, and eventually being able to down her effortlessly, and then the withdrawal affects of the chronos kicking in as well, and its just like. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
dont even get me STARTED on that ‘to be continued’ like yeah there’s a dlc comin but the game mentions repeatedly that its just the first act which has me like OKAY. SPECULATION TIME (what am i speculating on? literally no idea im not even rly at the speculation phase im still in the WOW COOL VIDEO GAME phase)
and i rly like the dragon/fifteen but the first time i saw him i was just like. who’s this f*llmetal alchemist looking bitch ??? what’s he doin here?? go HOME and controlling him is AWFUL i hate the dragon tape so MUCH >:C but also he’s like. cool. i want to know more about him n his plot 2 take down Juncture n the government n whatever.
but also i was listen 2 Full Confession bc it’s just. what the heart wants rn. i need to be sad and caffeinated in order to get into the Writing Zone rn and then i was THINKIN like my friend mentioned while we were playing the dragon tape that the song that plays is very similar to Full Confession (which i had sent him earlier while i was losing my mind over the final boss) and then i was like. Hm. these are very similar but have such wildly different moods -- Breath of the Serpent is much more like. ‘you’re going to be afraid of me’ while Full Confession is like ‘i’m afraid of you’ and i think that the different Vibes from these two soundtrack bits about important Null characters is just like. WOW and i wonder how a version of it that was purely Zero’s might be. would it be more triumphant? more flat? what desperation or emptiness is in there that could be drawn out by this melody??? i dont KNOW and i can’t write music unfortunately but im just like AAAAAAAAAA
i also rly wanna know what snow has going on ??? like. shes clearly important. she is a vital npc. but Why. she didnt even rly do anything except Show Up???
fuck V. all my homies hate V. the motorcycle fight was a lot of fun tho i rly liked that section even if my therapist was mad at me afterwards
also i think elizabeth/the little girl is rly cute and the fact zero was just like. ‘hm. well guess i have a daughter now’ so fast w/ her (at least, with the dialogue trees me n my pal kept going down) and im just. So Hoping we can rescue her in the dlc :( i miss her so much and im so like. worried abt that like pls give me back my daughter you dumbasses i cant even read ur dialogue without my brain being like ‘yeah these r just squiggly lines, boss. gl’
i also want to believe that the masked men arent real (bc idk, it’s just easier for me to process that they’re the result of chronos withdrawal) but the problem w/ that is like. they definitely kidnapped elizabeth, and i want so desperately to believe that elizabeth IS real n that zero genuinely wants to protect her (and by extension, the part of himself that is still human)
ALSO THE PSYCHIATRIST i was just like. Okay. I Must Get A Good Grade In Therapy. n kept being nice n cooperative and helpful to this clown ass and then THAT ENDING ??? like i didnt even get the Bad Therapist Ending i was just like. fucka you! attacka you with a rock! (i do however want to try the therapist boss it sounds like a lot of fun) but i just. i hate him! he sucks! find a better therapist zero u rly need one im sorry for ur problems disorder :( like hes clearly a guy who just works for the government n wants 2 keep a leash on our man
n the contradictions, hes like. yeah ur killing everyone related to chronos so it can no longer be produced ♥ but dw ur special we totally wont just withhold chronos from you as soon as u finish ur tasks dw about it ♥ and its like. Hm. I Dont Think Thats Right !!!!
also i wanna learn more about what Juncture has going on??? what are they like. Doing besides poisoning water n making lighters ?????? it’s clearly a lot
also the art for this game is just so GOOD,,, like. i didnt rly notice a lot of the backgrounds my first playthrough bc i was just losing my mind the whole time trying to solve each puzzle but the second playthrough im just like. AAAAA. and the soundtrack? effervescent. groundbreaking. perfect. So Good
and the GAMEPLAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my GOD i was SO vibing with it, the difficulty curve was kinda extreme imo but as soon as i started like. Getting It? and started looking at each room less like combat/fighting and more like a puzzle that needed to be solved it made it so much easier 2 get into the headphase of ‘okay how do i clear this’ and it was just like. YOOOOOOOO
and zero is just a lot of fun 2 play as. legitimately everything about him is just so ridiculous. his dialogue options? ridiculous. his design? absurd. the implications that hes like. 22 and just having the worst 10 days of his life? mood, buddy. this guy likes samurai movies and card games and mushroom pizza and has worn the same outfit every single day for who knows how long and hes also a war veteran, an emotionless serial killer and a drug addict. and hes 22 and 5′10. literally NOTHING about those traits make sense together but here he is, just Vibing.
i love him so much. im going to make a self insert oc that’s just giving him a friend who knows how to cook n is just like ‘oh wow, that’s rough buddy’ when hes like ‘i only feel alive when i kill people’ and conveniently knows how 2 get bloodstains out of things bc i think he needs that kind of person in his life since his like. therapist is conspiring against him n he keeps having 2 kill his friends
also, unfortunately, i want to get every achievement, which i feel like is going to become hld....2!! where i get all but 1 of them and am stuck at 96% for 2+ years >:T
#kc chirps#hello gamers i am vibrating! very vibrating. losing my marbles at this 420am on a thursday

BNHA AU Ideas : Urban Fantasy AU
Also on AO3!
TL;DR: Mythical creatures are real and they flock to Izuku like cats to a sunbeam. He and Bakugo have been the Heroes of various magical creatures for years, now its time for them to return the favour.
Aka the “Aizawa I swear I’m not part of the Yakuza these aren’t gang tattoos-“ AU
basically: mythical creatures are real
izuku is quirkless but he does have magic, which if he uses it carefully it can come across like a quirk
the problem is, its super variable + weaker than most quirks
bakugo is in the know, he and izuku are actually friends bc. izuku used to take him out to go talk to faries and fire spirits
basically, izuku was still pretty powerful, even without a quirk, because of the mythical creatures
he and izuku always planned to register his magic as a quirk if they could think of something, but everything was too limiting so he cant really be seen using it
shinso is part siren (like, 12% siren) and doesnt know it but izuku does and its driving him c r a z y
mic is like 50% siren and definitely knows and thats bugging izuku as well
all for one has like, 800 different curses on him and izuku is shocked the guy is still alive
ofa isnt just a quirk, its part magic which is almost unheard of, and izuku sees and is sh o o k
izuku ends up with ofa because the first ep just basically happens, sans bakugo being a dick
he gets the hang of ofa pretty quickly because hes been using magic his whole life
still cleans the beach because a selkie begged him to
stain is actually a vampire, got turned a little while ago but izuku isnt sure if stain is like, aware of it??? which is a little concerning
izuku is like, 100% human so no one is really sure why he can use magic, but everyone just rolls with it
inko was shocked when she found her infant son surrounded by faries but she put on her game face and read every book about magic ever
hounddog is just a straightup werewolf
nezu seems to be a magic user but izuku isnt sure, but nezu is super confusing anyway
izuku thinks aizawa was blessed by a medusa that thought his quirk was cool because, looking back to aizawa’s sports festivals, his hair didnt always float
izuku asks nezu what he is but nezu changes the answer every time
one of the reasons izuku wanted to be a hero is because of the number of magical creatures that found their way into the profession
he and bakugo go on little quests for magical creatures after school a bunch because A, if they owe you a favour its always really helpful and B, they can give you cool enchanted stuff
bakugo has a charm that stops him from being burnt that he is always wearing. its his favorite, shaped like a tiny dragon and carved from seaglass
izuku has like, 8 luck charms and shoes that make him silent when he walks, among other random crap. he has so many random magic trinkets on his at 1 time he could probably take down a whole gang.
basically izuku is the fae's errand boy and bakugo helps when he has free time because he likes the cool shit he gets
izuku has this lil lizard friend
he calls him a salamander because the little guy wont actually tell izuku what he is
and he saved him when he was little but he cant really remember how, and the “salamander” has been following him ever since
izuku sneaks him in campus cause its his lil lizard buddy! has a pocket in his hero costume and everything
izuku knew the guy was magic but doesnt find out how until the usj, which is, not coincidentally when he has to come clean about magic to aizawa
because
the lil lizard?
was a bigass kirin the whole time
and it literally rips the nomu in 2
and aizawa is like "so,, izuku,," and izuku is like "ooooohhhhh booyy"
but they dont get to talk about it much because the nomu knits itself together is a really creepy way
basically izuku uses every luckcharm, magic trick and maxs out one for all as far as he can push it
with aizawa and the kirin, they manage to take down the nomu before allmight gets there, but none them are in good shape and izuku is like, 2 secs away from being killed by shigiraki when allmight shows up, but w/o the nomu the league bales without trying to take down all might. shigiraki is p i s s e d
during the fight izuku straining the luck charms so badly that whenever he dodges a particularly bad hit, he can feel them shatter
aizawa and izuku have matching hand print scars because shigiraki had a hand on both of them when allmight lept through the door
they have a hard time getting izuku into the abulance bc the kirirn, bleeding and weak, is trying to bite anyone that gets close to his little human
bakugo holds it back while it cries. he’s crying too.
the kirin is called spark bc it sneezed and almost set bakugo's hair on fire
nezu gives izuku the excuse the spark is just a "lizard with a quirk, right?" and just winks and izuku is cONviNced nezu can use magic but he has no proof and its eating him up inside
because izuku is self-sacrificial like that, hes gets bakugo to find some of the healing potions he has collected and uses them on aizawa and spark, not on himself
he only uses one on himself bc spark lays on his legs and bakugo pries his mouth open
aizawa waking up the next morning in hospital like "wow why do i feel perfectly fine" and recovery girl walks in like "aa,,, holy crap???? why are you ok???"
izuku, 3 rooms away with a listening sigil drawn on the wall, has the most shit eating grin
he has to rub it off really quickly when recovery girl walks in. shes a little confused about the pen smear on the wall but izuku just kind of brings weirdness with him so she lets it slide.
so in this au aizawa doesnt have a weaker quirk after the usj
he has a scar but its hand shaped, not the lil crescent one
its on the same side of his face and just missed his eye. izuku’s in on his neck. they are both really lucky it didn’t hit anything important
when allmight burst in, izuku final luck charm shattered into dust.
also izuku has tracking charms on every one of his friends because one time he and bakugo got separated at the mall and izuku cried for 45 minutes straight
comes in real handy when iida goes to fight stain
izuku shows up even earlier in the fight, throws garlic power he bought at 7/11 in stains eyes
stain: h-
izuku, running in tears: sTAY AWAY FROM MY FRIEND
picks up native and iida and runs while yelling at iida about how he cares about him while also trying to find a hero because he really didnt think this through
izuku has loads of sigils tattooed and drawn on his skin and aizawa is shook bc this boy is so soft he is not part of the yakuza
hes co v e r ed in them, anywhere that isnt his forearms/neck/face. some of them are obviously hand done. he did a few when he was pretty little so they arent great
one of them is the kirin across his back and bakugo has to point it out to him because he didnt know it was there and its very glittery and magic looking, not done in normal ink and it must be pretty old too because he has loads of scars over it
and aizawa just wants to yell because how the fuck did no one notice this child covered in tattoos

i saw something in the tags about an ahamkara oc and their warlock boyfriend?? can u,,,,elaborate please (it sounds so good!!)
yea!! so ozur, the ahamkara, is kind of an anomaly of an ahamkara and he just rlly wants to chill out and actually help people, but he also hates fighting and stuff. so he gives himself a human form (awoken, but w/e) and lives in the city like a regular citizen. he grants lots of little wishes all the time to make people’s lives nicer, and uses his wish-knowing paracausal nature to just be a good person. so like, his neighbor’s roses arent looking right and she wishes they would look better, and he grants that wish, so she goes back later to see that ladybugs have shown up and started eating the aphids that were attacking it. or a little kid wants to find some cool rocks for his collection, or someone wants the stars to look extra bright for their date night, etc. everyone always wants things all the time, so he grants those wishes and keeps his nature as an ahamkara secret.
reo-5 is a sunsinger who showed up in the little district where ozur lives bc he noticed that there was something odd going on there and wanted to find out what. instead he met this charming awoken man and went “oh he’s cute”
ozur knew what reo was up to when reo showed up, and he was curious about him, and then when he really started talking to him ozur was basically just “hhh cute warlock im gay” and definitely did not think about what might happen if reo found out he’s an ahamkara bc he was just so enamored.
they end up kind of dating for a few months when reo gets time off. ozur didnt grant any wish of reo’s but did try to do things he wanted without using ahamkara magic or letting on anything. he gets anxious about granting some wishes bc he feels like its taking advantage of people and he wanted his relationship with reo to be as genuine as possible, no magic involved.
of course, the cabal invaded. ozur had no idea they were coming bc the nine did some bullshit, but he starts freaking out because he doesnt want anyone getting hurt, and then the light goes away and he realized that if he doesnt do something right then and there then a lot of people would die. so he tells reo that he needs to wish, he had to wish that that district would be safe, and reo kind of freaks out bc he’s been falling in love with this guy and now, in the middle of war, he’s lost his light and this man is a literal dragon.
it puts a strain on them for sure. reo doesnt tell anyone, trying to cope with it himself. they have to stay locked down in the district. ozur’s really upset he can’t do much more because he’s afraid that trying to free the light would destroy the traveler. he’s not very strong because he’s only fed on little wishes for decades.
after a few weeks, the cabal find them. just a small patrol, but ozur is desperate not to let anyone get hurt. so he goes full ahamkara dragon form and attacks the cabal. he gets really hurt by a centurion. reo realized that it was a really stupid thing, and if ozur was actually a typical ahamkara he’d get so much more strength by siding with the cabal and not literally bleeding out on the ground trying to protect everyone, so he wishes that ozur would heal himself.
ozur grants that wish after way too much hesitation bc he’s a self-sacrificing dramatic dummy with anxiety and he kills the cabal. and then he has to deal with all his friends and neighbors knowing he’s been an ahamkara this whole time. they take it pretty well. and then ozur can be more open about his magic, and uses it to help them rebuild in the district and bide their time and grow their strength to retake the city when the rest of the resistance comes back. everyone also agrees to keep ozur being an ahamkara secret after the light comes back.
and also ozur and reo get back together and theyre really cute and really gay. and ozur has cute little dragony bits when he looks awoken a lot after that, like horns and feathers in his hair and little scale patches and sharp teeth. sometimes wings and tail, too, just this sorta hybrid combo that’s really comfortable for him to be bc he trusts reo so much instead of being 100% dragon or 100% awoken.
reo’s also a really cool character bc he’s fought ahamkara. one killed his best friend during the hunt and as revenge reo wore its bones on his armor. he also used to be a warlord and while he’s changed a lot as a person since then, he still gets really freaked out and scared when he thinks about gaining power because he doesnt want to be that way again. so it does help him when ozur tells him that he knows what reo wants, and reo doesnt want to be a warlord again. theyve got a really cute dynamic and also sometimes ozur looks like a teeny cat size dragon and lets reo wear him around like a scaly and feathery scarf
#oc tag#PLEASE ASK ME ABOUT THESE TWO I ADORE THEM AND IM IN LOVE W OZUR HES SO GOOD#also hes nb!!#Anonymous#cas answers

Oh, don't worry about disagreeing with me. Everyone has a right to their own likes and dislikes, and no one should make them feel bad about those or in need of justification. It is the different viewpoints on the same subject that make a fandom, story plot, or dynamic so diverse. It also gives the opportunity to experience things from different perspectives. If everyone just agreed on and did the same thing, imagination might just become stagnant and die. Also, you are very polite and respectful in voicing your opinion, so I would never be mad about it.
I like the occasional possessive character (and sometimes even when it borders into the unhealthy, toxic kind of behavior, but I have to be in a special mood for those stories), but usually, I like it more in a ... how to say this, appreciative way? Like "I know what I feel for this person and I will treasure them and these feelings with all my might for as long as possible and yes I'm showing off my happiness. This is *my* love." (don't know if I was able to explain the kinda vibe I feel with this)
On the jealousy front, that's a little more difficult. For me, I enjoy jealous characters *if* the narrative doesn't turn melancholy and dramatic because of it. Like, the jealousy isn't in relation to the character not trusting their partner (like "this other person can give them so much more, they will surely leave me for the better option"), and not about them being angry that their partner is having a good time or anything like that. But more like "I love their laugh. I kinda resent the person that made them laugh like that a little bit right now, but just you wait, I will make them laugh like that as well." (again, not sure if I was able to explain the sentiment here)
Anyway, let me repeat that it is always okay to choose to not engage with content or story/character angles that you are not comfortable with. Or even to steer something that could go two ways into a direction that agrees more with you, even if the one asking was probably trying to go the other way with their ask.
I'm glad to hear that you still like discussing Malec and (sub) Magnus, even when you don't feel motivated to write for them anymore.
I will probably be back with more randomness soon. Hope you have a wonderful day :-)
<333 i just don’t want to be like “well cool if you like that but i DONT” ldkgjfdfg you know
yeah i mean to be fair, sometimes a story with a jealous/toxic/whatever character can be good, i just prefer like. i can enjoy that kind of story, but i want it to be like. for characters that are that, rather than bringing them to my blorbos/otps that Arent like that. does that make sense? it’s the same with like “dark” fics--i don’t mind dark fics! if they’re for something like, a darker canon. if that makes sense. like, i mean, for some reason the only example that comes to mind is hannibal even though i haven’t actually seen it--i would read hannibal fanfiction for fucked up codependent cannibal boyfriends. i would not read malec fanfiction for fucked up codependent cannibal boyfriends. you know? i don’t like making my blorbos that aren’t Already That dark/toxic/etc.
yeah i get that--there’s this certain brand of like. i think it’s technically possessiveness but it doesn’t feel like that to me because it’s not like... okay, actually, it’s like, a dragon’s hoard. but it’s “this is MY treasure and he is pretty and perfect and i am showing him off but he is Mine and only I get to have him :)” versus like, more traditional/classic evil dragon guarding hoard and being like, idk, controlling and like nobody else can have him (whether he likes it or not) rather than omggg no one else gets to have him bc he chose me and i chose him and hes mine and im his :) you know what i mean? yeah that was sooo coherent thanks me
but like, showing them off and treasuring them and being glad they’re yours and you get to have them with you but like, almost like. smug like yeah that’s right they chose ME and they’re MINE and i’m THEIRS. rather than being controlling its more--yeah, appreciative! like you said.
yeah, that’s fair, i can get behind it when it’s kinda silly and sweet and like they both know it doesn’t mean anything but they can’t help but be like “>:( but im prettier right. right” or whatever, just a little. although i think it’s less “i resent they made them laugh :/ *I* will make them laugh” because usually blorbos i like are too busy going “😍 oh.... their laugh...” bc anything that makes their lover happy makes them happy (i love couples who simp for each other a bit ldkgjdgh) but like, the general idea of like. it’s not about trust it’s just a silly little like. thing dflkgjdfg im so elegant
oh i LOVE discussing it, i just have low energy 😩 but some of the other fandoms im more active in right now aren’t really ripe for nsfw content so i miss writing it :( feel free to keep sending asks! i might take forever to respond but i Will eventually
#im probably not gonna answer these all at once cos classes are starting soon and imma be#low on energy#but dont think that means i dont like them! i do! im just. t#very small and very tired

i just finished summarizing the entire plot of twewy for a video.
heres this awful script i wrote in under an hour
twewy time baby
100% spoilers in this play the game (or not, i dont control your life)
BACKSTORY TIME a long time ago (idk i think it takes place in like 2008) in the town of shibuya this dude jesus i mean joshua (yoshiya?) got super depressed and was like hey this town sucks. these people suck. ima blow up the afterlife. so he tells his bro megumi "hey this town sucks theese people suck ima blow up the afterlife" and megumi was like "hey how about you dont???" and josua was like "okay well play a game find a way to make this town not suck and the people not suck and i wont blow up the town" and megumi was like "yeah okay"
ya boy josh is decides to get a proxy for the game so he goes to his bro hanekoma (MR COFFEE DAD) and is like "hey this town sucks. these people suck. ima blow it up. i need your help for a proxy for a game im playing with the shades guy" and coffee dad was like "okay ill help you get a proxy for the game" but internally he was actually like "F U C K" and was planning to sabotage he game
coffee dad then makes a cool ass grafiti wall that will attract the PERFECT PROXY. joshy goes to the cool wall and sees edge boy neku sakuraba and is like "hey ima shoot you now" and neku is like "you wot m8" but then math fucker sho minamimoto shows up and tries to shoot ol oily josh because he wanted to be the head captain dude. hes dumb as shit though bc josh says no to the bullets and math fucker runs away. jos then kills neku because for somereason he didnt run away like A SENSIBLE FUCKING PERSON. joshy drops a player pin on him
ACTUAL GAME TIME WEEK 1 edge lord nexk wakes up with 2 player pins (wow) and no one can see him bc hes fucking dead (except other dead people) also he has no memory (which was his entry fee into the game). and quality friend shiki is like "yo lets be partners" and neku is like "you wot m8" and now theyre partners. they go on a fucking adventure where neku nearly kills shiki (lol) but coffee dad stops him and say "hey how bout you dont" and neku is like "you wot m8" neku and shiki get a mission to advertise pins that look like the cool skull pins they got but theyre RED. (this will be an important tool later) Shiki is now sad. Why is shiki sad? because we find out backstory where shes jealous of her friend eri and she looks like eri because her entry fee was her appearence. we make her happy though dont worry. : ) also theres two other kids named beat and rhyme. rhyme protects beat and fucking dies (rip). without a partner mr coffee dad has to come save beat. we get to fight big boy ram crotch higgy and kick his ass (yay) and beat the week 1 of the game. week one? yeah. only one person can come back to like. get fucked neku, only shiki can come back to like (also beat decided to become one of the bad guys oh no!)
WEEK 2 TIME hey now time to play the bullshit game again. since neku beat the game in week 1 he gets his memory back (he doesnt remember how he died though (oh no!!)) but his entry this game is shiki (idk how they manage to do that) and now he has to find a new partner. oh hey its ol oily josh, being a little bitch. "howdy bitch youre my partner now" and then neku is like "you wot m8". josh gets to do all sort of bullshit shenanigans. the big bad guy this game is the math fucker himself, so minamimoto, who likes to scream about SOHCAHTOA and his garbage sculptures. josh doesnt like his phone so he decided to go to coffee dad to get it upgraded. coffee dad is like "oh okay" and gives his phone a camera (everyone has shitty flip phones in this universe). neku slowly gets back his memory of josh shooting him in the fucking face thoughout the week too. and it doesnt help that joshhy boy is being a secretive little shit about secret things. neku finally gets a fucking chance to ask him about what the fuck josh is doing making him run all around town and jossy is like "ima be the fucking ruler of this town" and neku is like "you wot m8". beat tries to kill them multipul times thoughout the week. theres also these enemies that can attack the badguys and are super fucking powerful. josh as to reveal that he can jesus beam just so he doesnt die to one of them. they then go to fight the mother fucking math fucker and he reveals that he was the one who made the fuckery enemies. neku gets just enough memory back that he believes that josh didnt kill him but was actually trying to save him. math fucker tries to fucking nuke the two of them but the josssssssssss says no and "blocks the hit" making it look like he died.
WEEK 3 MOTHERFUCKER neku is all alone theres no players this time because they were his entry fee (good fucking job neku) but the ya boy beat is like "hey im not a bad guy anymore lets be partners" so now theyre partners. they gotta go find the bad guys base because beat wants to be the motherufcker in charage now. so they spend an entire week trying to do that hey the fuckery enemies are back i wonder how that happened. hey everyone has the red pins from week one i guess that advertising did good hey everyone is being mind controled they go to mr coffee dads coffee shop and see that its all fucked up. aw shit. they begin thingking that he is the big motherfucker in charge, and theyre like... 90% certain. they find the bad guys base and get to fight shades mcgee and also shiki being mindcontroled. they beat the shit out of them. but the shades turns into a giant snake dragon and they fight him. he gets his ass beat and then ya boy OILY JOS SHOWS UP and does the jesus pose and fucking fuses with shades to become a big like?? 8?? 9?? headed dragon snake thing. you then beat their asses. shades fucking dies now. josssssshy reveals that he wanted shades to die so that he would win the game. he then hands neku a gun and tells him to shoot him or he'll shoot neku. neku refuses and it seems like he gets shot as the screen goes black. jk neku opens his eyes and coffee dad and jos are standing together as josh decided not to blow up the afterlife.
the whole good children crew (except josh as he has to run the afterlife) comes back to life, they all meet up at the hatchiko statue and josh watches sadly as he wishes he could join them. and they all live happily ever after.
unless you count what happened in kingdom hearts dream drop distance canon then it means that eventually joshua gave up hope and their world got plunged into darkness and he has to live alone with versions of neku beat shiki and rhyme that possibly arent even real : )
