[aqg-arts]

Nekros = Nexs, Nexly, Ross, Rossy, Nexi and Hades :3

Nexs: He's like a giraffe (so tol)

Nexly: Nexly is the type of name I would give a Warframe ngl. Those fuckers are lucky I ain't Ballas

Ross/Rossy: He may like dinos, but he's no jerk (iykyk, no one likes Ross, tho)

Nexi: He's a sweet :3

Hades: Ima use a GIF and let you guess why I gave him that nickname :3

Mirage = Milly, Mirrors, Smoke, Pinky, Harley (iykyk)

Milly: I gave her the nickname 'Milly' because I think that, were she sentient, she'd like to have a sweet, cute, and silly nickname. She's like Gara- she's a slaying queen, and I adore her :3

Mirrors: She's just soooo spooki, oml :3

Smoke: Such a mysterious joker

Pinky: Bc I can't dye my hair or anything like that for breast cancer, Pride or anything like that, it's my goal to have at least one configuration of colours that suit that theme all year round :3

Harley: She's a fellow queer, I can tell :3 (iykyk)

Inaros = Sand, Sandy, Sam, Summer, Sand-Me-Some-Sand

Sand: He's half a beach

Sandy: He lives in Bikini Bottom

Sam: He looks like a Sam ngl

Summer: He's hot ;3

Sand-Me-Some-Sand: Make him the cutest card hook hand man

Loki = Loks (prounced as L-oak-ck-s), Lokikins, Sherbet, Froggo, Froggie, Mr Frogs, Frogsikins and a fuck ton of other frog-like names :3

Loks: He just... such a lil... bean.

Lokikins: No need to explain, he's a lil kimtin 🥺

Sherbet: Specifically Strawberry (he's so pretty).

Froggo: @eve-be-sleep-deprived gets it :p

Froggie: He likes to eat bugs...

Mr Frogs: If he was real, he would FROG

Frogsikins: Ok, but like, tell me he isn't a froggo, I dare you >:0

Vauban = BinBin, Tinnie, Tibbles, Foxy, Goggles, Goobi, Gobi, and Lilboopz.

BinBin: He's like Tin Tin, but his Vaubing out ;3

Tinnie: Look at me and tel mee he doesn't like to make lil cities using tin cans and such.

Tibbles: "Tib Tib Tib" sounds so freaking sweet 🥺

Foxy: Tin Tin was the dog, yeah? If not, he's like Mr Fox.

Goggles: He likes to look drippy, ok?

Goobi: He's a goofy goobi :p

Gobi: He looks like a Goby fish

Lilboopz: He was into rap at one stage...

Mr Boops: He is the CEO of being booped by his Tenno, Tina. Put some respect on his name.

Griffin Jr: iykyk, but if you don't, just know that they were both tortured by 'nice' guys.

Mr Corpus-And-Grineer-Slayer: Everyone says they hate Gorpus, but we all know, deep down, you see it. It's the gay relationship you've always hated; narcissistic, rude, grofit, etc. You HATE it. Umbra knows this. That is why he will always be there to kill them. He will NEVER give you up. He will NEVER let you down. And he'll NEVER run around and desert you.

Slays-In-Pink: This is a fact. In fact, it's a solid fact. Source? Me.

I was wondering if any of your warframes are named 👁️👁️ and if they are, why do you pick that name?

Gara Prime = Gazza, GP, Gamma, PeePeePooPoo Woman and so on :3

I call Gara Prime 'Gazza' cause she's a queen, and I'm Aussie (we have a good way of finding nicknames). Gazza is a fun silly gal and oddly enough, I actually love her a lot lol. Unironically got me through some hard times, which is weird to say, all things considered lmao.

She also gets Gamma cas I like Halo and she's a perfect fit- She's got the Harrabussa Helmet from H3 (idc if I spelt it wrong, just know she slays and the h3 fans are malding).

PeePeePooPoo Woman is a reference to me- I am a God, fear me- but also bc when I first got her, I had no idea what I was doing lmao. Still don't, but we slaying.

UwU

Limbo = Limbean, Limbeanie, Lim Skyealker, SillyGayBoi69, and you can imagine the rest :p

Limbo gets 'Limbean' bc he's just a silly bean 🥺. 'Limbeanie' is also a reference to Houdini (Limbo is a proper space magician). He gets called these cas I think hims a sweetest boi and in need of hugs :3.

'SillyGayBoi69' is his other nickname bc he is a gay boi and silly >v<.

Mag = Maggie, Maggi, Magpie, Magazine, Marbius (it's Marbiusin time), Magnet and Margaret.

Let's do these a hit differently, yeah?

Maggie/Maggi:

Magpie: She's the type of gal that swoops at you between summer and spring (all my Aussies know what I'm talking abt, can I get an amen?)

Magazine: She can read you like a magazine and will make you shite yourself if you piss her off. Queen.

Marbius (it's Marbiusin time): iykyk

Magnet: again, iykyk

Margaret: If she was a few thousand yrs older, a few feet shorter and looking like that sweet old lady, this would be her name.

Excalibur = X's And O's, Ex, Sculley, Nibbler and such.

X's And O's: 'Ex's and Oh's,' is an obvious one I hope lol.

Ex: a nickname of nickname² :3

Sculley: We have this horse up where my own horse is. His name is Excalibur and we all call him Sculley. Well, Sculley loves to-

Nibbler: Yeah, Sculley loves to nibble fingers and flesh lmao. Not bite, nibble. He's a good horse and is gonna be used for schooling when his training is done- He's an extremely calm and intelligent animal, so it's no shocker. This is relevant to the nickname bc I say it is.

Ima add to this list btw, especially cas I just unlocked 3 more warframes :3

[valkyrie1366669]

"The feeling is more than mutual." He leans a little closer. "Seek your bedroll when you are ready- but do not expect much sleep." His voice lowered while his eyes remained directly on her.

She sucks the inside of her cheek between her teeth while nodding. "That a promise, hefjor(bear)?"

"You speak Dwarven?" He regains his posture while crossing his arms casually.

"A few words and slurs. But I feel I may have to disclaim something." A little embarrassed, but it has to be said. She's been pent up. And that... that's either going to be a good thing or something potentially dangerous.

"Such as?" His brows quirk up in confusion.

"Halsin, I... I'm not saying no or that I expect, erm, particular things. But, I need a safe word. I don't feel- I suppose rabid would be the best word. But, I put a few scars on Astarion unintentionally from either teeth or nails... I don't mean to get carried away, but it can be difficult. Especially being pent up even by choice. I don't like it at times as I feel I'm gambling with it if I get too carried away. Sometimes I do things, upon permission of course. Some of what I do like would make certain people uncomfortable but pleasurable. But mainly, I ain't ever want to hurt you or make you uncomfortable." Didn't give a shit how pent-up she was. She had to be clear about what may not likely happen, but just in case.

"Hmm, I see." Humming along with a nod as he listened to her. He acknowledges the warning while keeping a neutral face.

"What?"

"Nothing. I just like being right that you are resourceful." He grins like a Cheshire. He leans down to her good ear. The Druid's tone shifts to a more seductive one. "Cedar, ach chan eil mi a 'smaoineachadh gur mise am fear a dh' fheumas facal sàbhailte a-nochd. Chan eil mòran a chumas suas rium. Agus tha mi an dùil toirt ort crith-thalmhainn fodha. Chan eil mi ag iarraidh bacadh sam bith ort, mo chridhe. Tha mi a' cur luach air a' ghluasad-bodhaig, mo vixen. (Cedar, but I do not think I will be the one needing a safe word tonight. Not many can keep up with me. And I plan on making you quake under me. I want no restrictions from you, my heart. I do appreciate the gesture, my vixen.)" He growls a little at the end.

The Blood Arch Druidess's freckled cheeks are flush with a light pink hue. Since he wants to play, let's play. "Tha e math dhut rudan a ghabhail os làimh. Thathas a' teagasg barrachd anatomy na Draoidhean fala na rud sam bith eile. Chan fheum mi eadhon suathadh air na sònaichean erogenous follaiseach gus do dhèanamh Euphoric. (It's cute of you to assume things. Blood Druids are taught more anatomy than anything else. I don't even have to touch the obvious erogenous zones to make you Euphoric.)" Gwynnistri purrs before she leaves her new lover to process her response. There was a little glint of gold in his eyes before leaving him.

[body-diversity-for-solista]

Hi, I just found your blog and got a little overexcited about the possibilities. Sorry if this is a lot, I just like going on about ideas I have and I don't expect you to do all of them, if anything please just think of these as suggestions / inspiration for if you want to draw any of them. :)

Younger characters (i.e. Tressa, Agnea, Crick) with acne? (Or older characters too, I just would like to see more characters in fiction with acne because it feels like they're always drawn with perfect skin.)

Alfyn with scarring on his face/hands (Castti has scarring from the poison rain, why not have Alfyn have scarring from the illness he had as a kid)?

Therion with a wheelchair/cane/other means of helping him get around? I find it a little hard to believe that he has NO lasting damage from that fall, I imagine it's not impossible for his legs to have gotten messed up or for him to have been partially paralysed.

Ort if he had to leave the Sanctum Knights post-story (even temporarily) due to injuries -- scarred maybe, and/or using a cane or wheelchair? It bothers me that he was the only survivor and was hit full force near the end there, and the game didn't go back to him after the fight, you just find out later if you go to the cathedral that "oh actually he's fine now."

Thank you so much for the requests! I don’t remember exactly what symptoms Alfyn’s disease was said to cause besides coughing blood, so I just made up some marks I thought looked cool.

I 100% agree with your point about Therion, it makes sense that he would have been permanently injured in some way from his fall. But also Ort absolutely deserved a recovery period or at least acknowledgement of his injuries. (I love how before the boss fight Temenos is all “😱! I’ll come back for you, just stay alive until then!” and then the chapter just ends. like oh yeah. totally forgot about that guy.)

Honestly, I respect your opinion on Tezcatlipoca, but I can’t help but feel that killing him off before your rewrite of Lostbelt 7 even begins is just petty.

But ignoring that because it’s ultimately your decision, Daybit will lack a purpose without ORT (assuming he has a purpose that relates to his mission) and will have no servant. Not that he needs a servant per-se, since he can handle himself well enough, but he does lose out on someone to talk to. Every other Crypter had someone to interact with, so it would be a loss to not give Daybit someone to interact with in absence of Tezcatlipoca.

Well, if nothing else, the only thing pettier than killing off Tezcatlipoca before the Lostbelt begins is having the reason for his death be the bad meat he ate in India.

Dont worry the pettiness is very much the point lol. I actually didn't plan for him to die because I wanted to try and use as many of the same servants as I could, since the point is to make a better version of the existing story. The way things lined up though it ended up making the most sense for Tez to not appear at all, and at that point I know how I'm already seen well enough to embrace the pettiness.

So that said while a funny coincidence it actually is just how the cards ended up falling, and that's shown in the whole reason he's already dead as well as the consequences of his self-sacrifice having actual narrative weight (TLDR it both was the reason the lostbelt didn't collapse in on itself, but also something that IMMENSELY backfired in a way no one expected)

As for Daybit....what makes you think I didn't give him a different servant? Someone much more fitting Grand Berserker at that (hint: ask @agnerd-bot who their Grail War Berserker is).

Same goes for his purpose! ORT being there doesnt mean he's meaningless, it just means he has a different meaning. I will definitely say that Daybit has been the one consistent thorn in my side in trying to rewrite Lb7, but that's cause there's a lot of stuff that isn't easy to work with, not because there's nothing to work with at all.

For all my complaints about the official lostbelt, I am grateful if nothing else for it inspiring me through sheer spite to make this rewrite because it's some of the most fun i've ever had as a writer.

2022/23 retrospective

I forgot to ever update everyone on my 2022 goals and then 2023 was a big fucking year so some assorted thoughts, Hazard specific:

Behavior Mod:

Separation anxiety: We finished 2022 strong with a 2 hour departure where Jo and I went out to eat with our parents. Everything went back to square...uh, like 50, but we were on square 2000 so... in February 2023 when we moved. After a rough March/April (lots of taking him to work briefly for Jo to pick him up on her way home), I was off work in May (surgery) and was able to get the foundations back. In the last 2 weeks he's been alone for 2 hours three times, all fairly solid, under different circumstances and setups. A+!

Car work: Has been a complete disaster. He can remain quietly in the car at home while I run back in for something, but not elsewhere. At one training facility he'll settle down if I stand near the car for 2-3 minutes, then slowly walk off, but not at the other one. I need to dig into this but it involves driving somewhere else, and at that point I want to do the thing I'm there to do...

Nails: We made loads of progress up until puppy arrival, and have made scattershot progress since then. I was able to clip about one front nail a week--5 minutes of work a day, but only once a week could we get up to the actual clipping. That hasn't happened in a while, but he is getting much better about the dremel noise as I counter-condition the puppy to it: Take all the focus off him, I don't pay attention to what he does, I feed her all the treats she wants as I buzz her nails, and he gradually decides maybe it doesn't eat dogs after all.

Stranger danger: 2024 priority.

Titles:

Got BCAT and CA in 2022

Took another CGC class, failed that test as well (stranger danger AND reaction to friendly dog problems, did notably better on supervised separation though (???)).

ORT and NW1 and NW2 in 2023, all on the first go!!!!

TKN and TKI in 2022

No work with rats since 2021, regrettably, but we're currently doing so well in nosework I don't want to add another sniffy sport for the moment

(This isn't a concern about crosstraining, this is about MY brain and MY spoons and also MY income)

First RN leg! Two more rally trials (one virtual, one in person) in January

2024 goals will be a separate post.

Neither bmod nor sports but he has done fantastically about adding another dog into his life--he enjoys K'seil, likes playing with her, his welfare has measurably improved by adding a puppy. I didn't expect this (I was resigned to making his life slightly worse) because when we puppysat Maddie for a week at about 3 months, he was miserable, needy, and so ready to get rid of her. But he loves K'seil, when she went to sleepaway camp for Thanksgiving he was distressed she was gone, it's been great.

It does mean less 1:1 time with me, and less training, but oh well.

Sporadic posting times, slow writing (I won't take requests), rambly tags in reblogs, beware spoilers

My fanfic writing is a personal creative outlet for my emotions. I’m of the opinion that depicting sensitive subject matter does not mean condoning it but I also understand that fanfic is a source of comfort and entertainment for most readers, so I’ll make sure to put a warning beforehand.

If you are below 18, please do not interact with my smut writing.

Preemptive warning for: smut, dead dove (noncon/dubcon), yandere, casual self-deprecation, symptoms of anxiety and depression, disordered eating, codependence, mild religious sacrilege*

*I'll update these warnings every now and then. Please make sure to read the beginning notes and tags++blacklist/mute accordingly. If I miss anything, don't be afraid to ask me to tag it.

I use the block button liberally and I encourage you to do the same if anything i post icks you out. Don’t worry, I will not take it personally.

As a general rule on my blog: Let's try to be kind and respectful when interacting with each other.

About the writer (very misc):

-Direct messaging is really scary for me, but I do welcome replies (finally, they have sideblog replying aahh) and anon asks. Being tagged in reblog games and fanfic writing is also cool with me!

-I've tried having a queue multiple times (read: it didn't work out. I decided to just embrace my spontaneous bursts of energy.) Sorry if you're expecting something scheduled/timely responses to interactions, but they just happen when they happen and/or if I remember to respond 😭😭I really don't mean to come across as cold/unfriendly.

-If you wanna know who my favorites are just look at this blog's archive and my writing masterlist, you'll spot 'em relatively quickly.

-I feel very strongly about the act of writing itself so there might be writing-related discourse in the occasional reblog. (For example: you won't find me talking favorably about AI art or AI writing.) I'll make sure to keep these tagged under #for-dellet.

-Interacting with the works in my unfinished/abandoned drafts is okay. Same with taking inspiration from the premises/ideas. (Obviously I won't allow full segments of my writing, actual or abandoned, to be copy pasted and/or fed into AI.) The list is my own attempt at being more forgiving instead of perfectionistic and deleting any "unworthy" writing.

[a-tale-of-legends]

Yaknow what? Here's a funky question; how would you ocs be if they weren't chosen?

Not that they wouldn't be protags or have legends (unless that's what you want to do lol) but just like normal pokemon world

Ooooooooh that's a good one.

Jin - probably still goes through their arc growing up, though no longer has this chip on their shoulders when it comes to being Chosen. Don't get me wrong, their relationship to Rayquaza is still pretty complicated, but given that there's no true bind, it's kinda easier for them to simply ignore it.

Kohaku - she's definitely the one of the few that took being Chosen well, so her not being Chosen wouldn't really change her outlook on life really.

Kenji - On one end, being Chosen made him feel like he really had to exceed imaginary expectations, something he was already struggling with. So not being Chosen would kinda relieve him of some stress in that sense. On the other end, being Chosen kinda gave Kenji a comfort that not anyone could give him. Someone to talk to when he felt like he shouldn't with his friends. Without Ho-Oh having that bond of a Chosen and Legendary, things feel more hollow. Yes, Ho-Oh is still there and still tries to comfort Kenji, but it's not completely the same, you know?

Aiko - Hmmmm. Aiko is still someone I'm reworking a bit, so it's hard to say. Maybe she just. Doesn't get the courage to stick it to Silver. Heck, maybe Silver ends up being the one that goes after Lugia instead of her. Aiko's personality isn't based on Lugia of course, but not being the trainer with a "soul like silver" might come to play here. Though all of that is just a guess, I really need to figure Aiko out lol.

Danica - Her eeriness is almost always the same, but her childhood is much more lonely I think. I'm going with the idea of Danica not being Chosen = Giratina never coming to her as her "imaginary friend". Of course, she had Barry, but I imagine Danica is more distant than she already is in canon.

Kiran- Not a Chosen lol. I think his powers would stay the same bc Sakura isn't a Chosen either. Whoops!

Alexis- Woooooooooh boy. BW would still be the same I think. But there's no. Sense of someone looking down at Alexis all the time. Like something is calling to him and he just can't figure out what. His journey is still a nuzlocke. It still sucks. He still runs away with Zekrom. After he returns, Zekrom would.... honestly just leave him given the path he was going. The main reason Zekrom stayed when he was a Chosen was bc 1) they had faith that Alexis would snap out of his awful funk and take care of himself and 2) Alexis was their Chosen. And while legendaries can Choose and Unchoose as they please, they can't help but just want Alexis to be The One. Zekrom is very optimistic in my au, if not a bit naive. Though without Alexis being Chosen, I think Zekrom is more inclined to listen to Reshiram and just leave ( or at least go back into it's ball form). Which. It wouldn't do great got Alexis mentally I think. Not great at all.

Elliot - Another hard one. She was passed down the Chosen title by N in this au. So honestly it's the same thing but she just doesn't get Chosen.

Eva - Another odd case for a Chosen. Kyurem knew it couldn't really. Survive with some sj ort of protection. So it Chose Eva. If Eva was never Chosen, she wouldn't have such complicated feelings towards the cold. Well. That's a lie. What happened in Opelucid City scarred her, but not being the Chosen of Kyurem would not have her in such a panic at the time.

Wayne - Maaaaan, Wayne not being the Chosen of Keldeo kinda implies that he hadn't fully found himself. I still think he grew as a character, and still catches Keldeo, but. Yeah, it's not the same.

Jude - I was going to say Jude fucking dies, but that seems to extreme lol. Jude has been repressing her aura for years, and while Lucario and Sylveon are skilled enough to help him manage it in the early days, Yveltal's aura helps our a lot. There could be a chance Jude would die so to their aura being so much, but protag powers say they live lol.

Dante - another one where he could have died but again that's probably too much. Honestly I'm not completely sure! Outside of like, moral support, I dunno how life would be without being a Chosen for him.

Ames- Nothing really changes outside of having to wear a specialized suit if wanting to go through ultra space. That and just not being that much of a night anymore lol.

Ray - Same as above( minus the night owl stuff)

Naomi - Well. For one, I don't think her father would be dead. Possibly. The whole reason she's a Chosen is bc her father's Curse Chosen status fell to her when he died. Can't be Chosen otherwise if that didn't happen so. There's still a chance the man could have died when she was young still, but there is no longer anything fogging her memory and the faces of the past. Not saying she remembers everything clearly but the unnatural fogginess in her head? Gone. If her dad was still alive, I think those two factors would have made Naomi just a bit more confident in herself. Not a lot, but just a bit more.

Carol- Nothing much changes I think. They don't have to accidentally touch someone and release their soul, so that's cool I guess. Carol got Chosen pretty late so. Yeah.

Luca- Again not 100% sure if he is gonna be a Chosen, but uuuuuh. If he wasn't, I don't think the story would have changed much lol.

R.B - Not a Chosen lmao, I know that now. I personally find that hilarious, and just wanna say that if no one is Chosen, that means R.B loses her " I'm the only normal human being next to these fucking demi gods of people" status. Then she would be losers like the rest of them ( affectionate).

Sorry this took so long to answer I! Feel asleep. Thanks for the ask deer!

[slashingdisneypasta]

little things like musing over his scars or the places he visits when he's out sailing... or joking about how he can't get enough of you after he sought you out on his last five shore leaves consecutively. scroop clicks his mandibles at that and opens his mouth - and you expect some kind of growl ort hiss - but what greets your ears is a gravelly voice (that gives you goosebumps) as he tells you "don't get cocky. you're just the warmest, tightest hole in this dump" with a mean smirk. 2/3

Part 2!

[animasend]

👀 do you believe your existence to be one that matters? or was it all a mistake?

truthful answers - not accepting

"...." any words that had settled on her tongue die before being spoken, the quick answer of ' of course it matters' falling to pieces.

once upon a time, in a place that now resides unknown to so many, olga marie had wondered. and she had deemed herself worthless at the end of it. someone who only held worth if she could live up to a tainted wish of a father who never acknowledged her, who was not the person she fooled herself into thinking. and she had failed. no matter the desperation, no matter the struggles, she had failed. and if it were here answering this, then she would have said no without any hesitation. but she is gone and what remains is a fragmented dream.

( the story of the director known as olga marie is unknown to her now. it is something olga considers to be a nice dream, one she wished to have done better in. for even if the memories are long gone, perhaps unconciously she can still recall that want which went unfulfilled. )

or was it all a mistake?

as the alien god, her intentions had been to use ORT. to continue her one goal, caring none for what got in her way, crushing anything and everything like bugs. but like history is fated to do, decisions of the past repeat. she did not belong with humanity and she could not understand humans. she held no place in such a world and as the one who wrought its almost complete annihilation, she never believed otherwise. and yet, she had tried to stay. even if meant remaining as some weakened and flawed version of herself, she still tried. but that was not enough. in the end, she still failed, but it was her duty, wasn't it? as it had possessed her heart, it was only right that she kill it.

a decision olga knew would result in her death.

yet, had any of it mattered? did her existing as she did, doing what she did, matter at all? originally, she had been nothing more than an obstacle to Chaldea. an enemy to stop and she knew that did not change, not even in her last moments. though Fujimaru and Mashu had looked at her with the yellow of friendliness, she saw the distress and fear in the rest of the crew. that was to be expected. and if not for her changing her mind....she supposes they would have fought once more. she was theirs, and humanity's, enemy. another obstacle preventing them from restoring the bleached surface to what it once was. the culmination of her existence, of it holding any meaning, had changed when she recalls what had been said to her.

' you were no more than a sacrifice of his design. '

that is what that Saber had told her, her words holding no lies. was she truly just another's ploy? a pawn in their grand game? something made for a specific purpose then cast aside the second it was achieved? was that her role when she had been human....? had this-- becoming this -- been the mistake? was her existence good for one thing only and upon leaving that unachieved, she was nothing? she doesn't know and trying to know makes her head hurt.

" ....I don't know."

Fictober #10, Is This Normal?

Prompt: Is This Normal?

fandom: Endeavour

A/N: In case this confuses anyone, this is a missing scene from an ongoing Magical Realism series of mine

It had been a week since he met Endeavour Morse. That in itself meant nothing. Hell, it should even have meant nothing that they had met bin the first place because it had just been a coincidence. He had happened to be attacked by a vampire, and this Morse had saved him, and that had been that.

Only hat it was not because that very day, he found him again and Peter, who until now had believed his future looked rather grim, walked away with a job offer.

It was ridiculous. He knew nothing about magic. Until a monster had tried to gnaw on him, he had not even been aware that vampires actually existed. Why was he even contemplating this?

He knew why, of course he knew why. It was because otherwise, he would be staring down a very different path again, and one that had little to no future in it –

And really, he reasoned with himself, what could he lose? Nothing because – he had nothing. He’d had something of a plan, but that plan consisted of – well – and he wasn’t going to consider it when he could at least try. Yes, all of this might sound crazy and stupid and unlikely, but –

Again, what did he have to lose? So why not take this man up on his offer. Worst case he walked right back out again.

And so, he went to his first day of work at the Guard, which really only consisted of dev and him at that point (days which, even thigh he would not have believed it if you had told him at that moment, he would look back on with fondness in the decades to come).

And for the first week or so, everything was kind of… well, not normal, he wouldn’t have said that because there were reports of spells and creatures and sort of the strange chaos that happened when you let magic into your life (again, years later he would shake his head at his belief that he could just get rid of it again now that he had done that, but he really had known nothing back then). Still, nothing too out of the range of normal police work, as far as he could tell, and Dev was good company, even if he seemed somewhat morose now and then (once more: years later, he would still wonder why he had not noticed, why he had not understood, immediately. But he supposed young men who had suddenly got their lives turned upside down could not be expected to just realize that something was going on with someone else, something other than the usual stuff, that was even when they had just learned that usual really was not what they had always believed it to be.)

And anyway, there were other things he had to deal with.

It was a Tuesday morning, and he was reading a boring report of the Council’s because Dev insisted that he should because apparently he had to know what was going on or something when a man arrived carrying a bag and, as most of them did, walked straight up to Endeavour without even paying Peter the least bit of attention (another thing he would laugh about much, much later).

After a brief change of words, the man left again, and his boss and – he supposed he would call him a friend because he didn’t really have many of those (none, as a matter of fact but he wasn’t going to go into specifics) gingerly tried to open the bag –

And all hell broke loose, or rather, it was what he would come to consider one of those days.  

“Is this normal?” he asked once the small fire-breathing creature (he wanted to call it a dragon but Dev told him they were nothing like that and would drag him to meet some eventually to prove it) had been dealt with. He was rather proud of how calm he sounded. No panic here, nothing, just him wanting to be told by his superior officer whether or not would have to deal with such things on a  regular basis and ready to run if he was.

He was ready to hear anything, ort so her believed. The answer he got surprised him regardless.

“Is what normal?”

“Well the – the –“ he gestured towards the half-burnt desk. Certainly, they could not replace such things on a weekly basis. That was –

“Not really, not the property damage” he replied and Peter needed a moment to understand.

The property damage. It was the property damage that was not normal. Everything else – someone just dropping off a creature, Dev taking it, the whole chasing after it through the building –

He took a deep breath and decided he got to have a cigarette, no matter the disapproving looks. “Alright then.”

After all, if push came to shove, he could always leave.

It was the one thought he would laugh the most at, in years to come.

the thing I'm drawing for the Pansexual flag is taking a while so as a filler episode i picked one Pride item from a bunch of stores and rated them out of 10.

TARGET

its just a tiny tent. Probably decor. It's more the all-inclusive design instead of the usual rainbow, that's good. Put a little drag queen doll in it or something idk. Sure it's cute, but what is it for?

5/10

WALMART

"Hello fellow gays, what is this 'eff-ort' you speak of?" Sad. Bland. Boring. It's giving "last minute school assignment". Exactly what I expected from "We-exploit-our-workers R US".

2/10

ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH

I can't believe it's not 'the color of the sky'. But seriously though, I kinda like this one. Very pastel. Also they donated to The Trevor Project, so that's good!

8/10

KOHLS

Cozy! Other available patterns include the All-Inclusive Flag and Disney. Not a big fan of that last one, but this one reminds me of 60s psychedelia. Also they donated too! Great!

8/10

DISNEY

And welcome back to "We covered our stuff in rainbows, give us your money!" This item is 34.99. You just KNOW these guys are desperate. All this merch and yet still no good representation. Remember kids, under capitalism you vote with your money! Terrible awful no good very bad. I award it no points and may Jayne County have mercy on its soul.

0/10

LOOKHUMAN

Yass bitch! Its creative, its eye-catching, its not just a rainbow for once, its great! That snake is adorable! Diamonds diamonds everywhere! Available in multiple backround colors! Beautiful!

9/10

CARLIN BROTHERS MERCANTILE

Its a pin. I couldn't tell until I saw the second picture. They really just turned the all-inclusive flag diagonal, made it look faded and called it a day. The whole collection is just three items, and they're all variations of this.

3/10

CONVERSE*>

$120. Wow. So, I can't afford this. Even if I could I personally wouldn't wear these but at least they look interesting. Its summer global-warming edition so who doesn't love some sandals, even if they are expensive. Even better, these guys have donated almost 3 million to organizations like the It Gets Better Project. We love to see it.

6/10

HOT TOPIC

Its funny.

10/10

Hope everybody's having a good Pride Month! Pan art coming soon!

WOOOooooOoOoOAaAAAHHHH

⭐️⭐️Intro post!⭐️⭐️

Hey! I’m Zero! I’m a trans masc/nonbinary (they/them) minor, and here I’ll quietly be going insane about random shit.

I also make art sometimes!

I’m fairly new to tumblr, so if any mistakes are made on my behalf please just let me know!

—what to expect—

Here you can find fandom-centric art & ramblings, the occasional snippet of my life, maybe one day art of my own story/universe (but not yet I’m not there yet), and TONS OF REBLOGS OF PALESTINE 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 from the river to the sea!!!!

—my interests!—

This is a multi fandom blog!

I know just about everything about Fnaf, Splatoon, and the good place, so pleasepleasepleaseplease talk to me about them

I also love stars ⭐️ & my favorite yt channel is Gtlive/the general theorist extended universe !!!

I also tend to fixate on things that last somewhere between 2 business days and 6 months (some recent ones have been Ted lasso, Daredevil, Shipwrecked 64, and the fallout tv show)

—tags—

I’m only gonna re tag a few posts with this system I have made but not all of them soooo rip

#from the river to the sea palestine will be free | posts about the genocide that is happening in Palestine.

#the world we live in | general horrors of news that is happening in our world. Yippie!!(sarcasm)

#ort | art that I have made!

#sploon | Splatoon!!!

#naf | frebby Faz fucker (Fnaf)

#tgp | the good place!!

#cool ass stuff | awesome things others have made!!

#current fixation that will leave my soul in either 2 business days or 6 months | I feel like it’s pretty self explanatory

so youve watched another bl and you need the world to learn about it

so yeah i watched ifylita and i need to talk about it so.. hello again tumblr? youve changed.. not for the best as always.. the cut is for SPOILERS. so the series is..

okay ig? its watchable which is already an achievement for a bl. but boy is it unnecessary long, it feels like they forcefully tried to make it longer, the perfect episode length would be 30-40 min, definitely Not an hour+.

the plot is interesting, the actors are ok, even tho i had to get used to the one assigned bottom and his acting choices, but he grown on me towards the end of the series lol (and research has shown he has killer abs btw). assigned top is imo super attractive, so zero questions to lead actors, they both are smart cookies and sunk the ship even before it had the chance to sail, everyone else in the industry should just watch and learn.

ive read somewhere (it was tw*tter ofc where else duh) that its hotter than kp. i mean.. as much as im ready to jump kp every given chance, the comparison here is improper. clearly they wasnt trying to make anything even remotely like kp, i actually think they tried to make an anti-kp, which i think is good as people shouldn't be given those nasty plots bc apparently they can't be normal about it. in short no, its not hotter than kp and imo its more in the cute/warm/comfortable department than anything else.

other things i liked about it:

head of the family whose 1) daughter is a lesbian who is going to a*ort his fav evil son-in-law's child and runaway with a super cute female servant to have a career in politics 2) son is gay and going to France without asking him 3) wife Suddenly remembered she's a human being and can talk with her mouth. everything is in 1928 mind. you cant help but feel some sympathy for the devil lol

two beautiful wives of a scum character ganging up on him we cheered

bad guys getting their karma, yes please we lack it irl

a character who you'd expect to try and ruin main cp's happiness actually helping them

characters' relationships in different timelines

plumeria. btw thanks for letting me know its poisonous, i always wanted to munch on it

the last episode i cried like a bitch which came as a surprise to me bc i felt almost nothing towards the main characters throughout the series, idk could be bc i was drunk watching it lol

things that could have been improved: episode length111, ost, opening credits design ofc or it wouldn't be a bl, the way assigned top character was more than willing to abandon the Love of His Life bc yk 🌟Studying🌟

my verdict: totally worth watching, But only if you are patient enough to stand artificially extended screen time bc sometimes its unbearable, i was gonna drop it about three times and its only 12 episodes, but im glad that i didnt, it has something.. lingering.. yk

18 June, NYY @ BOS, 2-6, Win, game one of doubleheader

As sad as I was for the rain out on Saturday night, I am rather fond of a doubleheader. And, to be truthful, I was still on a high from the 15-5 win on Friday. Season could’ve ended there. .500 and beating the Yankees? Sure. Call it quits. I don’t need a ring this year with this team. Just .500 or more and a winning record against the Yankees will suit me just fine. And guess-fucking-what... THAT’S WHAT WE HAVE AFTER TODAY’S FIRST GAME!!!! And we did it in those uniforms that I still don’t really get but hey, whatever...

The Oort Cloud is a collection of asteroids and cosmic debris in the solar system which happens to supply many of the comets that pass close enough to earth to see with the naked eye. However, the Ort Cloud was the nickname I coined for the deflation I experienced when Kaleb Ort came from the bullpen for some middle relief early in the season and invariably gave up a bunch of runs. So when I saw he was getting the start for game 1 on Sunday, I was not particularly thrilled. I was hoping for comets. But he did ok. And we won the game with some expected awesome contributions and some unexpected awesome contributions. Do I understand how a team that has now won two series against the Yankees dropped two to the fucking Rockies? No. No, I don’t. That was also unexpected. But we won, we’re over .500 and there are plenty of bright sides.

Kaleb Ort might’ve given up a two-run dinger to put us in the hole in the first, but that was pretty much all he gave up. He struck out 4 in two and a third and kept it pretty locked down.

Chris Murphy had a day. Two and a third with three strikeouts and one hit. 

It can’t have been easy for Nick Pivetta to get bumped to the bullpen, but he’s getting his groove back. He went three innings, struck out four and gave up the sum total of fuck all. Nice one, Nick.

Chris Martin (still not the Colplay one) gave up a hit. That was it. No runs. I could’ve just said the bullpen locked it down, but the truth is they all deserved their own shout out. 

The bats are waking up! Still! They smacked the shit out of the Green Monster today. Was every RBI a Monster RBI? Probably. I’m sure there’s a stat website to tell you.

Dugie went 2-for-4 with 2 runs scored and a RBI

Justin Turner went 2-for-5 with a run and a RBI

Raffy knocked one in, got a hit and walked twice. He’s about to light up. Sure of it.

Adam Duvall, still finding his feet after breaking his wrist (I like how weird that reads) went 2-for-4 and knocked one in.

Masa Yoshida had a hit and scored on a balk. The best hitter on the team scoring on a balk is hilarious to me. No idea why.

Kiké also had a couple of hits and scored a run. 

Connor Wong, believing that lefties shouldn’t have all the fun, smacked his RBI into the Monster as well to knock one in. 

We won!

We have a winning record again!

We won the series!

Shit happens and you get drugged

The weekend started out rough. If you sugar, its synonymous with getting flaked on. The weekend started out rough. I had plans Saturday night, and was stoked cause he was only in town for one night meaning big $$. After I had shaved my whole body and was almost done with my make up, he tells me, " You seem like a normal girl and wouldn't expect anything transactional." I was pissed. I had already cancelled on someone so that I could see this guy instead. When I told him no, I have bills to day. He said fine, let's just fuck for 30 minutes and he'd pay me pennies. He went from "you're lovely" to "you're just a dirty whore". I went off on him. Maybe I'll post my message I sent to him one of these days.

Then I felt like I lucked out when someone responded to my es*orting ad and wanted to meet that night. after hours of back and forth, he flaked. Then ANOTHER guy flaked. The silver lining of the night was sexting a guy interested in a femdom. I got to let out all my male hatred and he sent me a $100 amazon gift card. I was able to order groceries with it.

Sunday night I went out with a sugar daddy I'd seen before and as I sat down to wait for our table he venmos me $1000 like it was nothing. He said, let me pay your rent real quick. He is generous and kind and we really get along. I got to have crudo and scallops and we even fucked in a hot tub while he licked cold champagne off me. It was fun.

Then there was Tuesday night. I met this guy who was very straight forward about how much he was going to pay me and the frequency of it. I love that. That night I was already bummed cause I tried to audition at a strip club for the first time, only to not be able to cause I didn't have my SS card :(. But I met this guy at his hotel bar. He had just moved to the city from Atlanta and had the most beautiful accent. He was born in Belgium and his parents were from Honduras and Ghana and spent a lot of time in Ghana. He kept telling me I had amazing energy and was so kind. I had fun.

I drank 1.5 cocktails, and somewhere in that period of time I went to the bathroom and left my drink unattended. First mistake of the night. I trusted him for some stupid reason. We went up his room and smoked the tiniest amount of weed, but it was the strongest weed I've ever smoked. The room started spinning and wow I needed to throw up. The kind when the only thought in your head is "don't throw up don't throw up don't throw up!!!" I got through it. We had sex. Second mistake of the night. Always get your money up front. But I was silly and desperate and trusted him. He said his HR would pay me the following day. I believed him.

The room should not have been spinning. I've worked at a bar where the managers give you shots constantly and the room still never spun like that. I had no control.

I made it home, and texted my room mate to wait up for me cause I felt unsafe.

I spent the entire next day throwing up. and did the money reach my account? Of course not.

I was drugged. Either that or I dunno, maybe I hadn't eaten enough, maybe it was the combo of the drink and the weed. I don't know. But I felt disgusting. And so shaken up.

I called the hotel and told them what happened. I gave them all the info I had.

So who knows what happened next.

Be safe, don't leave your drinks unattended and take care of yourself.

xoxo, Valerie
