boy entered my brain and would not leave

[furikass]

I've made some sketches of what it would be like if Mandark and Jack met. I'd love them to be friends :D

I feel like they would help each other in the robotic genius field or at least vent together listening to angsty alternative rock.

I love those two dorks, I want them to be besties. They both deserve a bestie. <3

And yeah, they're totally teens from the early 2000s

ive been procrastinating a lot, and you'll NEVER guess why

[noirandchocolate]

So I know I’m really late figuring this out especially since this is our fourth playthrough of Breath of the Wild since 2021, but. A few days ago I was undertaking a korok hunt and happened to be looking in my inventory to change my weapon when I noticed that the Master Sword was charged up to power 60. “But I’m not in a Divine Beast or the Castle, or fighting Ganon,” I thought, and then realization dawned. There was a seemingly dead stationary Guardian nearby. I walked up to it, it bonged into life, and I quickly equipped the Master Sword and dispatched it.

You may be asking: How did we go through three and three fourths playthroughs without noticing that the Master Sword powers up around Guardians? Simple. We’d only ever killed Guardians using the shield-reflecting Perfect Guard method. Never with a melee weapon. Oh we knew you could, we’d watched videos of people doing all sorts of impressive stunts to kill them. But why do that when you can just reflect their own beams back and do a lot of damage fairly consistently and safely? So we thought.

Anyway, I later wanted to show Bast this discovery I’d made and so went up to the Plateau where I knew there are some dormant-but-not-dead Guardians in the Eastern Abbey. I equipped the Master Sword and unsheathed it to walk around that area. And goodness, when I got closer to my quarry and the blade suddenly sprang into a blaze of blue light with an angry little *shing!* sound, I was enchanted.

Now, I know the Deku Tree did say that the Master Sword is most properly used against entities and in places imbued with Ganon’s energy, and I now realize that certainly includes Guardians (not little ones in shrines, those are good guys meant to help the monks train you—the big ones that were usurped by Ganon). So it makes sense even if you think it’s just that, that makes the sword power up around them.

But I believe it’s also because Guardians are what harmed Link to within the barest millimeter of his life, one hundred years ago. And the Sword that Seals the Darkness has a spirit inside who remembers that.

If only you know to consult her, Fi has Information for her beloved Master. She will warn him of the dangerous Guardians nearby.

And she will aid him with all her might.

Gambling Apocalypse Tenma AU

As I rewatch Kaiji I inevitably end up wanting to combine show I like with other show I like and stuffing fav characters into show. So here we are.

This was uh going to be a short summary type thing but I accidentally wrote a novella about it sorry

This AU starts off with a much more depressive Tenma. After Tobio's death, rather than immediately pour his grief into developing a robot version of his son, he recedes into himself, psychologically paralyzed, likely turning to alcohol to drown out his anguish.

His mental state is taken as an opportunity within the Ministry of Science to have him ejected from his position; Tenma was never the most well-liked director, and there were those with ambition to usurp him that would jump at the chance. Not that he especially cares in his state.

He's eventually dragged out of his stagnation by Ochanomizu - who, inadvertently, becomes the very catalyst pushing Tenma to develop a robot replacement to his child. This was not what he meant by encouraging Tenma to fill the void left by his son.

...But, well, he is no longer the director of the Ministry of Science. His access to limitless government funds and resources for "scientific research" has been cut off, and this is a project he cannot finance on his own. He can't ask Ochanomizu for help, but...interestingly...a representative of a certain shady organization known as the Teiai Corporation reaches out to him, offering to finance and support his project. A sane and well-minded Tenma might think better of it, but grieving and desperate, Tenma accepts their offer and is able to create a robot in the image of his beloved Tobio. For a while, there's joy in his life.

But the bill, as ever, comes due: Tenma must pay up, and the very resources that had been at his disposal will certainly ensure that he will, or else. Of course, he doesn't have the money; instead, he is given a choice. He can relinquish the robot Tobio in order to wipe out his debt - the child is a sophisticated and powerful robot, after all - or he can participate in a certain illicit event hosted by the Teiai Corporation.

It's nothing major...just a four-hour gambling cruise with a collection of desperate, damned souls that were also swept into debt with Teiai. The conditions are simple: Those who choose to participate are given a chance to clear their debts wholesale should they win. And should they lose...?

Well...no one really knows what happens to the losers seized by Teiai. It's said that they labour away their debts under Teiai's watchful eye and are freed once their work has covered their debts, though it's rumoured that most perish before they reclaim freedom.

There's only one answer Tenma can give, of course; he's not willing to lose Tobio again.

Thus is Tenma's debut into the Gambling Apocalypse, where he must become cutthroat in order to survive; if he wants to see his son again, he must make choices that will doom the hapless to miserable servitude, with a nonzero chance it ends in their death.

He survives the cruise, but of course, it was hardly enough to clear his debt; the cruise was never going to be the end of it. Teiai doesn't let go of its victims that easily. He will be called on again: this is a weight that hangs over him, all while he returns to his son Tobio. The same hands that have pushed innocents into hell must now be the hands that can embrace his child.

He wants to protect Tobio from the truth and enjoy what peaceful moments he's allowed with his son, but it's difficult. It's difficult to be the parent of a child who cannot understand the danger that looms ahead; this "happy" home is not to last. Tenma angers quickly and easily. He turns that anger onto Tobio.

As Teiai's games become more and more vicious and unrelenting, as his conscience holds onto the last vestiges of thread that remain, Tenma even threatens, once, to give the boy in: it would all end, then; the debt would be clear and no longer would he have to endure Tobio's childish annoyances, his ungratefulness.

The next time that Tenma is beckoned, Tobio takes matters into his own hands. He does understand, now; and he would have, if only Tenma had bothered to explain sooner. If it's a debt that needs clearing, he will work. He will help his father clear his debts however he can. Of course, it's difficult to find work as a child; but a circus troupe finds amusement in the idea of a child robot, and takes him in. He is whisked into a certainly unpleasant working situation, but he remembers his father, and what he must be enduring. Tobio, also, will endure.

When Tenma returns, Tobio is gone.

All that held Tenma back from becoming something monstrous has disappeared. All that kept him going has disappeared. When he is called upon by Teiai, there is no knowing what sort of person might come out the other end; whether a monster clawing his way to freedom regardless of what actions he must take, or a desolate husk surrendering defeat.

There is still a light, however dim: Found by Professor Ochanomizu and rescued from the circus, Tobio - now Atom - is able to shed light on the situation which Tenma took great pains to keep hidden from his old friend. With time running out, Ochanomizu and Atom must do what they can to save Tenma - from Teiai, and from himself.

-----

UHHH and that's a wrap!!!! I couldn't quite decide which way Tenma would go after hitting Rock Bottom in this AU, and tbh it would really depend on the kind of mental state he's in at the time. On the one hand I like the narrative of Ochanomizu and Tobio racing to prevent Tenma from crossing a line (actual outright murder probably) - or having to pull him back into humanity (and yknow, his ensuing penance)

But on the other hand having him get sent to Teiai Evil Hell Prison would be interesting because a) there's a lot of narrative potential having Tenma faced with what Teiai is doing with the people that lose the games and b) need him to decimate the foreman at chinchirorin Kaiji style

Tenma's whole character is definitely a much different guy in this AU, he starts off pretty sympathetic, the guy you wanna root for, he just ends up having an inverse character arc where he gets worse instead of better. His conflict with "Tobio" is also kind of reversed, less about being unsatisfied with Tobio as a son and more not being able to handle the fact that he probably has intense PTSD now and isnt capable of coping with it in a way conducive to being a parent (or like, coping at all)

Anyway that's gambling apocalypse tenma!!!

Howdy Pia

Have you ever had dreams that feel so real that you can't tell they're dreams?

Last night I dreamt that you'd written an enemies-to-lovers fic about a cute mistreated robot-boy who got gifted to a sadistic human mechanic with dubious morals in a dystopian sci-fi world and when I couldn't find it on ao3 the next day I was so sad and confused lmfao

This is actually such a cool idea! You could probably work on it!

I've definitely gotten story ideas and concept ideas from dreams before. But never in a way where I've woken up and thought that I'd written them (I have plenty of dreams where I think I've had a certain conversation with someone only to be shocked to find out I haven't, because those dreams tend to happen in hyperrealistic detail and I'm very 'why play my like that' to my brain about it lol.

'Sadistic human mechanic x cute mistreated robot-boy' is something that would never occur to me in a million years but sounds hot as fuck and really amazing. Honestly, your mind it awesome.
