[whiterexpper]

Here we go...

Edit2 : removed the nevermore tag for a reason vv

Edit; removed the nevermore tag because

1) nevermore has NOTHING to do with this situation, nevermore is a comic, this is completely different drama that involves a horrible person. Nevermore is a GREAT webtoon that brought a second family together for me, Im not hating on the comic. Im only involving the tag to gather attention to another side issue (its not bigger than the crimson issue. That issue is the main issue and the victims need more focus than anything).

So I haven't said anything about previous events so far, and my point still stands as I will remain quiet as everything has just come to a head with it all. It'll still sit here and marinate and reveal everything about the drama. A lot of people don't know, but all of this drama that happened? (Not the crimson drama, the previous drama about the mass ban) Has happened because Nora (or Sardonyx) personally went out of her way to lie and tell everyone what was happening. Most of the bans were innocent, if not all. And I was scooped up into it by nora herself and told the same shit, and I was only told the right issues involving it because someone who is close friends came forward about it all, and told me and showed me the truth.

Nora(Sardonyx) has had a hold on every dramatic situation, she has lied, been a hypocrite, a two face, and has shown she cannot be trusted. She has decided to talk shit and speak about all of this to a 13 year old, and Nora is 27. Everyone knows this, she is a manipulator who will try her best to make others look bad to get the heat off her back. Another issue with nora is previous conversations I've had with her, in light of them, some of the conversations we've had, she has made toxic remarks towards others. Bad mouthed almost every patreon, and has dragged me into it. I tried to match her jokes, tried to be friendly and laugh along with her. And in that, I'm sorry on my end. I never intended to hurt others, but she has. Again, I dont have any of these screenshots because I did leave any server I was associated with her in, and can't prove it on my end. She probably could, with cherry picked screenshots and edited ones as well.

I again apologize on my end for that, she has manipulated me through every part of our dms and has influenced me to be just as bad of a person. I've learned to be better, and I have talked with one of the people she has talked bad about and we are both on good terms. If no one knows this by now, she is still in the main server, after showing proof of her Threatening to kidnap and torture, her nasty remarks, she has tried to tell others that another person is Homophobic, which was untrue and that would have resulted in a ban. In the end, she's still there. And She's getting away with threats and others. I highly recommended staying away from her, as she has lied, manipulated and bought her way through everyone.

Another issue with nora is her banner situation, she has used NSFW fan art as a banner, fully exposed, unblurred fan art. Not going at the artist, but Nora using that art as her main banner on discord has resulted in minors seeing it. She has spoken to two people who asked her to change in, because they and others were uncomfortable and this was her response.

She used the main nevermore discord, a server that had NOTHING to do with the situation. Also her lying in this reply, she talks to minors. (Not in the crimson disgusting way-) but she does actively dm minors at the time it happened. She wasn't considerate. And the kidnap and torture mention, well. She never got banned for threatening two people.

I blocked out the other person and the victims names, as I don't know if they want to be named or not. Some people know who she is but for the sake of tumblr, I'm blurring her out. Through some of mine and her dms, there was some playful flirting going back and forth. Note on playful, by the way, but her being engaged and having a partner and telling me she thought all of it was real? Someone needs to hold her hand when they tell her this....(not me, dont let me go near that crazy woman she might K&T me too...)

But yeah, they were playful, pretty heavy flirting and it got detailed, SURE, its PLAYFUL FLIRTING. it happens. But her saying she's a "lesbian in a straight relationship"? Someone needs to hold her hand and to tell her AGAIN because this just aint it...

But she's still there, I've left the main nevermore server because of her. Because of her lies and manipulation, she has dragged others into this. People who had no involvement in this, but thats her way. She has done it before, DMing other people because she can't fight her own battles. She has to have others do it.

In the end, all I have to say is, Nora (sardonyx) is the one behind all the drama that happens, and will continue to be the one and will continue to get away with it. I highly advise to keep your distance from her , if not well...none of this would have been posted if she didn't go around acting like a 14 year old and spreading rumors about me.

Nora, if you're reading this, tell Eric i feel so bad for him to end up with someone as pathetic as you. And that the person you wanted to get freaky with found out how much of a horrible person you are. And I hope others do the same.

anyway..be careful with her or you might end up kidnapped and tortured <3

(stay safe)

So there’s this thread on Twitter about how Ness could leave Kaiser for Isagi, and I don’t agree with most of it but...

I appreciate OP pointing out the parallels between KaiNess and NagiReo in chapter 207:

However, OP’s conjecture about what situation could force Ness to also leave Kaiser sounded kinda forced to me...

Moreover, if there’s one thing I know about two parallels playing out at the same time, it’s that they tend to go in different directions.

One example—which also happens to be about dependency/attachment—is the parallel between Sara and Michele and Viktor and Yuuri from Yuri on Ice.

Sara had insisted on breaking away from Michele, her overprotective and possessive older brother. This led to Michele feeling distraught as he did his free skate, but unexpectedly, he also performed better without Sara.

On the other hand, Viktor had just left Yuuri to go back to Japan because Makkaachin was sick. Yuuri ended up performing badly during his free skate.

The separations are parallels, but they went in different directions.

I can see the same happening for NagiReo and KaiNess.

I explained it more extensively on my Kaiser trauma meta, but for Kaiser to complete his development he needs someone on his side.

Kaiser being abandoned by his mother started everything. It would be too cruel for him to also end everything by being abandoned once again. In contrast, everything started for Nagi when Reo found him. To end things with also a reversal—Reo leaving him—seems apt.

Beside, unlike with NagiReo, where Agi has constantly pointed out that they need to break up, with KaiNess we have Ness constantly reassuring Kaiser that he is there for him:

Even after Kaiser rudely dismisses him, he still anxiously looks after him:

Ness is down so bad for Kaiser, no way he’s abandoning him.

Yes, anybody can be subbed out at anytime. It can’t be Ness coz he’s been performing well. It should be Kaiser, but we know Noa himself is looking forward to Kaiser’s development, so I don’t think he’d sub him out.

Also, writing-wise, it would be quite awkward to have such an interlude when Kaiser’s arc is unfolding at the very moment. If one of them gets subbed out, Kaneshiro will have to develop another character’s play on the field, and that would be distracting.

So, no, nobody is getting subbed out, and KaiNess is not breaking up.

EDIT: I DON'T BELIEVE IN THIS ANYMORE. NESS NEEDS TO LEAVE THAT BASTARD 😭

Edit2: Ohh looks like Ness really is locked on Kaiser. Fine, as long as he's happy

[gold-rhine]

Nahida banner is going to run soon and i wanted to talk about her and her pros and cons if you're deciding to wish for her or not. i have both heavily invested c2 nahida who is top 8% on field builds on akasha and f2p no cons horrible support build nahida, so i can talk about different levels of investment.

her pros:

best dendro application in the game with 100% uptime.

sharing of up to 250 EM to on field character, which is very good buff to spread or aggravate carries.

she has insane AOE, you can tag entire room of enemies from far away and they will be dying passively, just from nahida's dot, which is very nice for single-target teams like hyperbloom or nilou teams that can't have grouping.

her less known pro is that she can have very good personal damage if well built, like alhaitham is called "top 3 dps" and my nahida does more damage than my alhaitham on field. the reason alhaitham is even viable is bc nahida is a tiny radish with short legs and is very clumsy to run, dash and attack.

but if you don't want her to do personal damage, she is perfectly functional with purely support build too, which is very easy and quick to get, and with 3 star weapon.

her cons are really good, and her c2 makes any dendro team insane

her banner will have xingqiu and kuki, and with nahida this is a ready made hyperbloom core that will clear one side of the abyss with minimum investment. or any content, to be clear, like if you dont care about abyss, this is a boss killer team.

overall, universal dendro support who can slot into almost any dendro team and has considerable to great personal damage.

her cons:

her insane dendro application is actually too thick and it will overrun other elements, which is very relevant for aggravate teams. you can't swirl electro thru nahida's E, so if enemy didn't die in one rotation, then on second rotation you're swirling leaf and your electro dps will not get damage buff.

another con is that she tags specific enemies, so if you kill a wave and the next wave appears, she needs to come back on field to tag them again. this is a problem for characters like cyno who do damage in long infusion state, he cannot switch to nahida without losing that infusion. characters like baizhu would be more comfortable for this.

as i already said, short child model is clumsy to use on field

her alternatives:

for kinich she doesn't do anything at all, he can be either solo dendro or work with emily

for dendro teams with furina, baizhu is preferred as a healer who can quickly stack fanfare

for nilou, she's still best in slot and tbh nilou with nahida and nilou without nahida is very much night and day, but even so, nilou has enough other option that she will be okay without nahida, with like, yao yao, baizhu, dendro traveler, kirara, tho AOE will tank significantly.

overall, in other dendro teams like spread, aggravate, hyperbloom, burgeon, you can use options like baizhu, yao yao, dendro traveler, kirara. they will have less application and AOE will drop to almost single target, but it will be functional

TLDR:

is nahida still meta? YES. she's still the most universal dendro support and the BEST, arguably only true consistent off field AOE dendro applicator who is not reliant on burst.

is she must pull? no, if you don't want to. when she just came out and there were almost no dendro characters, she was, but now we have enough options, both premium and 4 star, to slot into dendro teams instead of nahida and be functional.

get nahida if you like her and you want strongest AOE dendro support that you can use in almost any dendro teams, but don't feel pressured.

EDIT: if u want to vertically invest in nahida, get her cons, as i already said, her c2 is insane. do NOT get her weapon, its mid as fuck. for damage build yae's kagura is her best option, or any dmg oriented catalyst like widsith or lost prayer. for support, 4 star EM sac frags is about as good, and even 3 star magic guide will work.

EDIT2:

yes, you can use it as a support weapon, esp in nilou teams it'll be good. it's not bad support option if you happen to get it, its just not worth going for specifically. about nahida cons, i would advise to first trying your teams with c0 nahida bc this is more than enough. if nilou and nahida team doesnt feel like it doing damage, i would first look into rotations and if you have EM on the correct character, bc in bloom its crucial to know who will be the trigger

Just gonna type my thoughts out based on my notes I wrote while playing the To the Moon Beach Episode. So spoilers/long ramble.

Short things:

They brought back many minor characters from Finding Paradise, thought that was very cute

References: The "Are you winning, son?" in the airport was charming but I did not expect to get a full FNAF section

I love the use of previous games OST: updated versions and the lo-fi versions

Animations were very charming and expressive; they even joke about it ("didn't have a budget for it. The dance lessons")

That inverted/hanging jellyfish planter. I need it. I need it now.

Rob learning what people are up to on the internet these days only to instantly regret it

Willis and Taima still going at it. They are lifelong couple goals: keeping the flame alive while dropping wisdom

I need that soundtrack.

Bigger things:

Johnny and River addressing what most players/general audience found concerning about the original game and overall premise of the series: Altering and overwriting of memories or basically the reality of the dying. While jokingly Johnny says he could never see himself using their services, both conclude it's their choice and they just need to accept it

This was slightly touched on in the Minisode but for it to be brought into attention by the original characters that kicked off this series, it's something.

The three books at the beginning already set forth what this game is gonna be all about: grieving and acceptance of the passing of a loved one. The first run through, Eva completely numbed her memories to enjoy the beach and time with Neil. But there was always something.

Second run, she "confronts" as Faye states the truth: Neil is dead.

It was hinted that Eva started drinking (in the store) and has been repeatedly using the machine Neil left behind that Neil becomes concerned for her. (Similar to Collin in Finding Paradise.) While she wants to stay on the beach and relive the same day over and over, it's not possible.

There was a brief mention of immortality. One being a jellyfish that reverts back to infancy as it reaches the end of their lifespan and questioning if it's still the same jellyfish or not. Then compared to humans how we regenerate new cells except the brain and heart.

Roxie finds it romantic, Eva wishes that those also gets replaced with every pass.

Neil's death was either sudden or his condition was kept secret from Eva? Eva mentioned he didn't give her enough time to prepare and Neil didn't know what to do and I think he said he made the machine just so he just doesn't disappear and to leave something behind for her.

*Edit* I completely forgot about Paper Memories. I'm guessing the phone call Eva got from Roxie was that Neil passed away (given how distressed Roxie was in that one panel). It is possible that that portion was in the machine and that Rob and Roxie were aware. That whole portion is basically like this Beach Episode.

Edit2: thinking again, the call could be him in critical condition since in the comic Neil mentions making that garden. Eva not replying to Neil on how he died makes it sound like it was traumatic. She mentioned something about a surgery when talking to Lynri and Quincy and asking how he is when he visits them but not sure if that's involved or just a throwaway line.

Neil lives on with regrets; mostly wishing Eva was his girlfriend and more. Though he isn't real in the game, he still carries the memories he had. He built her "a garden" (comic reference) but she started spending too much time. And she can't fully enjoy it because he continues to keep her at arms length.

Neil locked himself in his room, much like he did in many instances throughout the series and now canonically, all throughout the life Eva and Neil has been together. Thinking he's doing what's best for her when all she wanted is him to be "here'

He regrets those decisions but it's understandable on why he did it. In Impostor Factory, Lynri's condition was hereditary and is in Neil. Seeing Quincy's face of absolute loneliness knowing he's about to lose his wife and eventually his son, it would devastate anyone. Neil making a machine to make it so that Eva would never have to go through that, while admirable, changed nothing. If not, made things worse.

How they close the game was brutal: The world Neil created for Eva to never be alone after he has passed slowly fading away, concluding with Eva being alone, crying, as she turns the machine off.

You couldn't just leave it like this for them. Together alone on the beach.

No. It's just Eva. Alone.

So someone I use to know, @darkdraygoon, who doesn't really use Tumblr anymore, found this using their laptop. It only appears when they scrolled over that one bobble on the tree.

"I did not know what to do. I think I am correct. Is it Homewarming where you are? Happy Homewarming."

It would seem that in the neighborhood of Home, their Christmas/Yule/holiday of your choice from this time of year is called Homewarming. It's nice of Wally, or whomever. They wished us a "Happy Homewarming" but also mention 'not knowing what to do' and 'thinking they are correct'. It's also interesting to note the fact of using a created holiday for the neighborhood not only lines up with classic children's puppet shows that tried to be inclusive but seems significant in the world itself.

I feel confident in saying that it is Wally (or whomever has been speaking through the scroll-over text) and not the WHRP team as there is no new update on the corresponding page:

The most current post from WHRP is about the, at the time, upcoming Halloween update of the site.

Going all around the website I found more answers to the commands we have been receiving.

I am grouping these three together as they were very basic commands. "Write Hello" to which Wally has now written just that. "Write 'OK'." to which he has rearranged all the banners to do so. And then "Turn The Playfellow Exhibition upside down" to which the title of that page is now just that. But here is the one that has my interest the most. On Sally's page in the neighborhood we were told to "Reverse this image of Sally". But this is her page now.

We are seeing the back of the curtain, the exact thing that was behind her before. To compare:

((edit: due to me having made and posted this at 2 in the morning, I had used the wrong version of Sally's original image. I have now corrected that.))

((edit2: look in the reblogs for my reblog. More theories and discoveries in it.))

[rayasland]

You ought to learn how the tags on this website work, the definition of pedophilla, and how to prevent trivialising acts of pedophilla against children. Focus your efforts on real children, instead of bitching about authors aging characters up, ie. Imagining them as fictional adults and not thinking about abusing fictional children.

Your behaviour is not productive, and not benefiting anyone. Advocate for real children being sexually abused, it will be a far better use of your time. + Puritanism is inherently bad and hinders on depriving us of our rights.

ok

[edit] oh mb i didnt actually read it gimme a sec b4 i reply

[edit2] the excessive use of the tags were on purpose, just scroll if u find that annoying or send someone asks whos constantly doing it

im aware of how they work, it was just a way to get peoples attention cuz we all know nobody would see it without them. im also now aware of the fact i may have over done it with the tags, i didn’t register how many i “clogged up”

u couldve moved along instead of wasting UR time writing this

even if its not real its just… weird to do theres nothing more to say

the post wasnt meant to say “pedophillia against real children isnt as important as aging up anime kids and we shouldnt pay attention to them” just seeing how many people agree with me abt whats on that post and if u dont or js dont think its important dont bother interacting please🙏🏾

i do agree w u that we should advocate for real children going through sa which im pretty sure a lot of people are already doing, but i wanted to bring to light how normalised js writing smut for minors(although fictional) is and how justifying it by saying “its a character” or saying “i aged them up” is strange

part of my point is writing smut involving underage anime characters, even if they are "aged up" or fictional, is still inappropriate and can contribute to the normalization of harmful behaviors irl as well as minors objectification because even if they’re “aged up” in your head it doesnt erase the fact you’re fantisizing over a fictional character who is meant to be treated and viewed as a child

also idfk what puritans rlly are only that they’re a different version of catholic which i dont know of either so idk what u mean there

this was written late at night if sum doesnt make sense lmk have a great day

btw im adding tags AGAIN to spite u 💋(referring to all that went in my asks to complain abt it)

thats all im saying for now im going to bed 🫡

[catandthewell-if]

Did some more work on the test demo! All of the writing has been transferred over. Still has to be edited, though. Next things are to work on stats, stat/info pages, formatting, and aesthetics. We have a long way to go, but we're getting there! ❤️

EDIT: forgot to say, I added in some easter eggs if you try to name yourself after the ROs of any side characters! Vienna's are a lil wonky rn though!

EDIT2: already saw some grammar and simple coding bugs, but nothing game breaking so far *^

[himitsy-chan]

what the actual hell is going on on tiktok it's 4 am

Edit:

Okay, so fyi - the account with a "new gravity falls animation" is not the same account as the one we were looking at a few hours ago

The username is different, if you can see it also has a different handle, and also the original one had a different bio, mentioning that the account was lead by Gus (cant-remember-the-last-name), I unfortunately do not have the screenshot for that.

So, either that's a really weird and roundabout thing, which doesn't make sense, or, the version I'm leaning towards - a fake account.

Edit2:

The actual account wasn't showing up in the search bar for me, but that's the actual account, with the previous videos still!

So, always check the sources before freaking out, thank you!

[frankencanon]

Why did I choose these characters specifically? Click the read more to find out.

Also, I made an alternate version of this poll without Robin and Nami so more of the other characters can have a chance — link here.

---

All of these characters (except for Uta) were taken from the seventh official One Piece popularity poll — which was also the first ever global popularity poll and the first to accept online votes.

Unfortunately, not everyone could be included as there were a total of twenty women in the top one hundred (not even mentioning Uta who wasn't an option then since Film: Red didn't come out until almost two years later).

I tried to go with characters that were recurring or are part of a currently or recently airing arc, such an Wano, the Reverie/Levely, and Whole Cake Island — plus the island we're currently docked on in the manga, which I will not mention by name just in case it's considered a spoiler.

---

And before anyone mentions Yamato: irregardless of the debate on Yamato's gender identity, it is canon that he prefers to be referred to as the son of Kaido and grouped together with men rather than women, such as in the case of the bathhouse scene.

Thus I believe it's safe to say that if we could ask Yamato whether or not he'd like to be included in the Women's Poll, he'd most likely say, "No."

Edit: My sister may have had a point when she told me I shouldn't include Nami and Robin because they'd totally dominate the votes...

Currently working on OP Ladies' Popularity Poll: Version 2 now, I guess.

Edit2: It is complete:

[mellonyheart]

This is the most self projecting thing I've ever written because guess what my body gave me for Christmas? Yaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy. Fuck my life. I still had to cook Christmas dinner too.

Mammon x Reader, first person pov, sfw, swearing because fuck is my favorite word today, slight angst, probably poorly edited. Edit: forgot to add 'reader is fem bodied. Whoops. Edit2: Actually gender is meaningless here and Reader could just as easily be suffering from menstrual cramps or a chronic disease/condition. So gn? The point is Reader has cramps. It's not specified what kind. Only that they hurt bad enough to not be able to enjoy going out.

Fuck.

This wasn't how I wanted to spend my Christmas.

I was supposed to greet the boys at breakfast. We'd eat and hold back our excitement (some better than others) about the coming festivities. I was going to help with Christmas dinner. I was going to bake a truckload of Christmas cookies! We were going to decorate them together. It was going to be a chaotic blast! It wasn't supposed to end up like this....

Owww....

My body seemed to have other ideas as I was now confined to my room by cramps. It's not fair! As if it wasn't bad enough I can't be in my (real) room but the boys were out spreading Christmas cheer for the rest of Devildom without me. And I was really looking forward to it!

It was hard to fight the tears as I remembered how Solomon left early to help out in my stead. I hope they can keep him away from the kitchen. That would be a disaster. Were the brothers missing me? They were right?

I missed them. I missed the present. I missed being a part of their wild world. I miss Mammon.

And now I really am crying. In no small part from the pain in my belly as much as my heart. My phone was suspiciously quiet too. Were they busy? Did something happen? Crap... you never know in the Devildom. Something is always coming up. I wanted to be a part of it. Why was fate so cruel?

I rolled over, still dwelling on my miserable thoughts. The pain killer was barely working. If I ever find this Nightbringer person (demon? Angel? Whatever...) I'm going to give them an earful. Not that my current situation was their fault but it makes me feel (infinitesimally) better to blame the entity that put me here.

Knock knock

Nope. Don't even think about it Solo. I'm asleep and I'm not eating your "soup".

Knock knock

I'm sleeping. Go away.

I could have sworn I heard a curse on the other side of my door but it was too quiet to make out. Weird. Solomon didn't usually curse.

Bzzt

?

I got a text message.

Hey.

You awake?

It's cool if you're not.

The Great Mammon just thought it'd be a good idea to check in on ya. You should be grateful I'm such a nice guy.

Fuck!

Anyway...

Just thought I'd say Merry Christmas.

"Wait!" I shouted as I threw open my door and there was Mammon halfway down the hall looking back at me with a startled expression.

...Just in time for another cramp. Ow.

"So ya were awake! Hang on... are ya okay?!" Mammon rushed to back to me, likely noticing my distress. He helped me back to bed and as he tried to take a step back I held his sleeve. Such soft fabric... if I wasn't miserable right now I would complement his santa outfit. It was perfectly... him.

"Thanks Mammon. But uh... what are you doing here?" I had to know. Why couldn't I let myself just be happy that he was here?

"Is that any way to greet someone who came all the way here to see ya?! And look at ya... fallin' over and stuff. Wait. Does that make me a hero?"

"Sure. My Christmas hero. Doesn't answer my question though." How is it that he can make me smile so easily? That has to be a super power. Maybe he is a hero.

"Do I really need a reason to see ya?! Gimme a break would ya?!" He huffed. I could guess what he was really doing here. His golden heart was always clear to me.

"I'm glad you came. Thank you. I was actually getting pretty lonely." Honesty was easy with Mammon. Even if he couldn't be honest himself. He was blushing and looking away from me. Damn he was cute.

"Y-yeah... well I figured you'd be lonely without me. I mean... well it just sucks ya got sick on Christmas. It ain't right." And by all things holy and unholy he looked at me like he meant it. He did mean it. Mammon really could be ridiculously sweet. Maybe too sweet because I can feel the tears coming back.

"H-hey! I didn't mean to... I wasn't tryin' to..." Poor Mammon. He was panicking. I really did try to explain that it wasn't that he said something wrong. It was just hormones going a bit overboard. But talking is hard when you're trying not to sob because the demon you love is too sweet for his own good. So I just hugged him. Hard. If he wasn't a demon, probably too hard but how else can I express that I love him so much I want us to meld into one person? I'm emotional. Don't hold it against me.

Mammon tried to calm me down. He hugged me back and kept saying anything he thought would be soothing in his own Mammon way.

"Hey. Ya good?" He asked as I finally calmed. My eyes hurt.

"Yeah. I'm sorry Mammon. This probably wasn't what you had in mind when you came over." My face felt puffy and I could really use a snack and some hydration.

"Don't worry about it. Are ya sure you're okay?" Anyone who says Mammon only cares about himself is an idiot.

"Yes. You're the best Mammon. I really need you to know that." I wiped my face and attempted a normal, definitely not wet, smile.

"Come on... don't get all sweet on me. Oh! I almost forgot!" Mammon suddenly dashed back into the hallway. After a moment he came back with a small festively colored bag and a thermos. "Here. I got this for ya. I uh... wanted to give it to ya before the others got here."

"Hold on... the others?" I asked, bewildered.

"Aw crap... that was supposed to be a surprise! Ya gotta pretend to be surprised when the others call ya down. I was supposed to check how ya were feeling so we can throw ya a party downstairs. Ya know, because you probably don't feel like walkin' to the House of Lamentation or the castle. And then Solomon said you didn't want to teleport so..."

I should have known. I love them. All of them. And they love me. Of course they would try to plan a surprise party so that I didn't feel left out. I feel like the luckiest human of all time. Dumb hormones can't stop me from having a good Christmas.

"Mammon?" I interrupted him from his rambling.

"Huh? What is it?"

"Can I kiss you?"

"H-huh?! H-hold on! You haven't even opened your present yet!" Fuck he's cute when he blushes.

"Can I kiss you after I open my present?"

"S-sure, whatever you want! Just open it already!" Mammon pressed the bag in my direction as to put as much distance between it and himself. He looked at me expectantly.

Inside the bag was... cookies. Clearly handmade. They certainly weren't made or decorated by Luke or Barbatos. One was a touch burned.

"You made me cookies?" I asked.

"Tis' the season right? Look! That one is you and that one is me. I threw in a couple Christmasy shapes too. Ya gotta try 'em though!" He looked nervous despite sounding so excited. I bet he brought these privately because his brothers made fun of his amateur baking skills. And he made mini us!

I took a bite of a Christmas tree.

"It's good."

"Yeah?! I mean I tried extra hard to get the shapes right and Luke had to help me with the decoratin' but they look good right?!" He smiled like the first sunrise in Devildom. So I kissed him.

Then as he got flustered and admonished me for the surprise attack I made cookie us kiss too.

Marry Christmas.

PM clearly doesnt know how gacha work. All those early system related blunders made me still believe, but releasing the alt. form of the main girl being obsessed with another guy? Yeah, i have seen where this goes. I wont pay any more money for garbage like this. You better believe me you will get an influx of all the scum of various communities flocking into your fanbase and draw as much cuckold porn of Faust and Sinclair in any version of themselves and Dante watching in the corner.

FGO people unironically tried to warn us that we will get lion'd and it actually happened. Dropped. I am what some would consider a whale (or leviathan depending on your definition) that spend 700 bucks on this game and even if its not much money for me, i actually regret it.

To anyone want to play this game and thought its a safe thing because Dante looks like a self-insert and the voicelines resemble waifu/husband material, dont get baited.

Edit: all i see in the comments are a bunch of white men not having a problem with their girlfriend doing onlyfans. This game is already dead.

Edit2: To anyone making fun of this and calling this bait, let me tell you something. I work at an IT job, i make relatively good money and i have an apartment with a great view. But what i dont have, are many human connections besides my family. I dont like real women either, i never felt attracted to anyone, and no, im not gay. Maybe im asexual or something i dont know and i dont care. But i can connect to ficticious characters, mostly in anime. And i connected with Faust, specifically with her in her room-sitting, little crazy version of her. I really love everything about her.

I waited for this game for more than a year, maybe two. i was always a PM fan. But i also am who i am. And i just felt betrayed by them. Making me believe many things through the 000 voicelines, that its going to be a gacha in that sense. That it is fine to connect to the character and that they will allow it and not hurt you. But they decided its not that kind of gacha game.

And i dont care anymore. But to see how people react to someone who is different than them, has different values than them...i know im not normal but i am not crazy and i do have a heart, just like you do too. But nobody of you showed it here today. I hope that you wont feel what i had to feel these past days, secretly knowing in which direction Fausts release will go and how that made my stomach turn for days. But if you one day do have a situation that resembles mine in real life or wherever, i hope you will remember this idiot from the internet and maybe will understand people like me a little better. Goodbye.

AITA for taking my younger sister out of a toxic home environment?

[Conficcare magically gets reddit for shits and giggles, written with brainfog & having never spent much time on reddit so mmv]

I [m30] have been getting into arguments with my sister [f21] recently, about my choice to once i moved out of the house at 18, getting her to spend at first the time between school and sleep in my flat, and eventually having her stay the night more and more.

She says this caused a breakdown in her relationship with our mother and half siblings, and made her weird to other kids because she was being practically raised by her older brother. Our older sister [f39] agrees with her, saying I took her away from the family and my issues with our mother shouldn't have affected our younger sister.

Part of the reason our older sister didn't like it is because I didn't live alone, I was sharing with my boyfriend at the time, best friend and my best friend's little brother. While I agree a cramped flat with a bunch of 18 year olds isn't the best place for a 9 year old kid to spend time, my older sister, mother, and two youngest siblings were also sharing a similarly tiny flat. My sister was left with the bulk of the child care, and I became the ‘man of the family’ when my two older brothers both left for better jobs up north and cut contact. I thought that taking one of our siblings would give less work to our older sister and because we were splitting rent, it didn't reduce by much the money I sent to them.

My other reasoning was that my mother is verbally and emotionally abusive to me as i failed to live up to her idea of what a man should be- which is why i needed to get the fuck out. Her vitriol was mostly aimed at me so my siblings don't understand, and I made sure my younger sister never got the chance to. Sure it wasn't the best plan but I was 18 and desperate to spare my younger sister from the hell I went through. I would apologize to appease her but she would know i was lying and it would make our relationship worse, i cant get her to understand I thought i was doing the right thing and it was better for her.

So reddit, AITA? 

EDIT: My best friend was also raising his younger brother in a similar situation, except their mother had recently died, which is why me and my boyfriend at the time moved in with them. I had half lived there anyway and my boyfriend is very close friends with my best friend. I trust all of them around my sister, my best friend stepping up and helping out massively with looking after my sister and i had communicated very clearly that if she ever feels uncomfortable to go to me and tell me everything, and that she's my no.1 priority over anyone else

EDIT2: Some of you have trawled through my past posts and noticed I mentioned a younger brother in a similar situation. Yeah my little sister is trans, its why i needed to get her the fuck out of our house and away from our mum. I didn't know she was trans at the time but I recognized that like me [a gay physically weak man] she started to fail to live up to the masculine ideal and that our mother was starting to notice, so that's why when I moved out I did everything to stop them spending time together regularly. I don't care that she hates me, i just wanted her to have a happier childhood and not have to deal with her loving mother turn into a raging homophobe and transphobe

EDIT3: I'm a nurse, simple as that. Just because im italian doesnt make me a fucking mobster and sure my at the time boyfriend has since served jail time, but that was for self defence and we are not even together anymore. Sure we have kept in touch because its a tight knit community but a photo together doesn't mean i'm working for the mafia even if he makes shit life decisions- and my best friend died shortly after, caught in the crossfire of a hit gone wrong, so suggesting my dead best friend is a crime boss is insulting to say the least.

EDIT4: In not sure why the mods are letting a convicted terrorist post on reddit but @/cherryb💣mb stop wasting your time arguing with a random guy from your hometown. Track down my sister to show her this post and i'll do the alphabet spaghetti cans worth of agencies on your ass a favor and take you out

So, If I would be given the task to advise the PR people of the MLSZ (let's be real, do they even have any..? And now, Ágika, the 53 year old who doesn't even know how to use twt DOESNT COUNT) to make the NT more interesting to a worldwide audience I would no shame tell them that the NT needs a good, shipable homoerotic pairing.

No joke. It might even work out in the long run and the ultras start being violently homophobic or something. Ok, maybe not, but still. Is it queerbaiting? Yeah. But people her don't even know what that means under the age of 23. 😭 And those who do, THEY WOULD EAT THAT SHIT UP.

Imagine the angsty fics!!

Anyways, my mind is set on this and don't care if it's problematic or whatever, this country is behind at least 50 years anyways, I'm just staying true to my roots. (And I'm also joking. 👍🏼)

Now, the only question, who would it be?

I have been thinking very hard about this in the last 10 minutes and I'm struggling. Why is it so hard to pick some latent homoerotic pairing from this team?!

I personally see some potential in Roli/Domi, but that's just too obvious, is it not?

Maybe a Domi/Séfi, they are both clearly very marketable, but idk, they are just too best friend like. Friends to lovers perhaps? That could work.

If only Csoboth Kevin was more relevant there could be some great potential for an enemies-to-lovers plotline with Varga! Sigh.

Edit, because @heart-w0rm reminded me that the one and only Balogh Boti exists. What about making it spicy and going with a Milos-Andris- Boti love triangle with a Boti/Andris endgame. 🤔

Edit2, and who's going to be the stereotypical close-minded homophobic villain hater? I'm voting Kalmár, because I don't trust him, he looks shady. SHUT UP, WE CAN HAVE DZSUDZSÁK AND SZIJJÁRTÓ AS THE ANTAGONISTS, WHO WILL GET THE HOMOPHOBIC BULLY TURNED INTO GAY LOVERS TROPE. And Orbán as some kind of Darth Sidious. I LOVE MY LIFE.
