Betrothal - The Start of Obligation
Dream cast a nervous glance at his brother, fiddling with one of the pearls adorning his sleeves as the finishing touches were applied. His voice was light but tinged with uncertainty, struggling to sound casual as he broke the silence between them. “This is to be quite the night,” Dream murmured, his smile soft though his fingers twisted around one another. “Mother has gone all out, hasn’t she? Every lord and lady in the kingdoms, all here for… for your betrothal.” He swallowed, glancing at Nightmare’s face for some hint of a shared excitement, a thread of sympathy. Nightmare’s one good eye shifted to his twin, its indigo gleam patient but not particularly interested. He let out a low hum, barely acknowledging the bustling staff adjusting the length of his coat, making sure each fold lay perfectly. The inky shadows dripping from his brow and hands stirred with some unknown agitation, despite his calm demeanour. “Hm. It’s what’s expected,” Nightmare replied, his voice deep and distant, as though he were speaking more to the shadows pooling at his feet than to his brother. “Mother wouldn’t have it any other way. A display of wealth, a testament to our standing, and…” He trailed off, a hint of something inscrutable crossing his face. “My betrothal, as you say.” Dream let out a breath, attempting to keep his voice bright, his usual optimism tempered with the reality of what lay before them. “Yes… but it is something of a celebration too, isn’t it?” He smiled, though it looked strained, casting his gaze to the mirror, where Nightmare’s attire stood out like a shadow against his own lightness. “A new chapter, perhaps. A sign of unity, of…” “Obligation,” Nightmare interrupted, his eye narrowing as he glanced at Dream’s reflection. The tendrils at his back coiled a little tighter. “I am to be a ruler, not a poet. And this ball? It’s a pageantry for others’ sake, not mine.” His voice softened slightly, almost lost amid the rustling fabrics and faint murmurs of the hand staff. “That is what is expected.”

Hi-!
I wanted to know if you knew any fanfics about Nightmare having to move on after his team died (preferably past bsp, but fine if not.)
Howdy, thanks for asking! Here are some fics that might fit what you're looking for!
The new beginning by ReikoNatsume (Explicit, Incomplete)
Nightmare loses his team? What will that lead to? Thats for us to find out...
Songs of Grief - Bad Sans Poly/Night-terror by DJCarnation (Teen And Up, Incomplete)
Night-terror is a man who grieves day in, day out. His days always spent alone with the exception of Genesis since the death of his lovers, with not a single sound escaping his neglected voice. The guardian was a near immortal, grieving for decades without a single sign of moving on. He couldn't, not when his team had meant the whole world to him. Fortunately, all this loneliness had ended abruptly. Night-terror refused to accept they were real the first time. Despite knowing they came from a different Multiverse, Night-terror's attachement to his loves drove him on to care and shelter the new group himself. And who would have ever thought that this would help him? Certaintly not Night-terror.
First, Last by Psycho_Chair (Not Rated, Incomplete)
He saw it in Error’s disgusted looks, in Dream’s pitying expressions, in Blue’s anguished stares. He had to let his boys go. Staring down at a page of his own ragged scrawl, his eye glazed and tired, Nightmare knew he had to let their memory rest. It was time to move on.
The End. by Dark_Knight373 (Teen And Up, Incomplete)
An average Immortal!Future!Nightmare angst plot where all of the bads died over 2000 years ago(most present day bsp fics) and hes still heavily grieving and dealing with the consequences of the things he did when he was younger as he guilttrips himself into believing all of their deaths were his fault. Except maybe.. just maybe.. he finally gets his happy ending..?
Helpless by Magyka13 (Teen And Up, Complete)
Something is happening to his boys and Nightmare finds himself helpless based on a prompt on twitter from Careless Creativity

The newly elected 51st National Assembly of Bulgaria convened with the registration of 234 deputies. Silvi Kirilov, from the "There Is Such a People" (TISP) party, opened the session with a speech acknowledging the complex and dynamic political landscape both domestically and internationally. He emphasized the need for sober analysis of the country's political, economic, and social challenges. Kirilov expressed optimism, stating that the Bulgarian parliament could overcome the difficulties if political parties prioritize the national interest over narrow partisan goals. He concluded with confidence in the parliament's ability to make pragmatic decisions, wishing the 51st National Assembly success.
Toma Bikov, a member of GERB, addressed the session, emphasizing that the recent elections had reshaped Bulgaria’s political system. He noted that GERB remained the dominant force and that forming a stable government without the party would be impossible. He made it clear that GERB was ready to seek support and make necessary compromises but would not accept any attempt to undermine the voters' will. Bikov also reiterated GERB's position on governance, proposing a regular government with a four-year mandate and clear responsibility.
Nikolai Denkov of WCC-DB warned that, for the first time in 35 years, democracy in Bulgaria was at risk. He linked this danger to the attacks on the country’s democratic foundations, highlighting the control over elections and political institutions for selfish purposes. Denkov criticized the actions of Peevski and Borissov, claiming their aim was to downplay the electoral violations and pressure lawmakers and citizens into accepting the situation.
Kostadin Kostadinov, leader of "Revival," addressed the assembly, saying, "Dear fellow citizens, we must all prioritize being Bulgarians above all else. Let's reflect on the outcome of the October 27 elections. Nearly 1 million of you either sold your vote or were manipulated into voting, either by local power brokers or criminal groups operating within Parliament. Another 4 million of you chose not to vote, indicating a lack of interest in Bulgaria's future. I would like to thank the 325,000 supporters of 'Revival,' as it is on their efforts that the fight for Bulgaria's renewal rests."
"DPS - New Beginning" deputies did not address the parliament and left the building, with the leader, Delyan Peevski, instead stepping out to speak with some of the protesters outside.
Atanas Zafirov from the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) remarked, "Dear colleagues, many of you have stubbornly clung to your own version of the truth—some of you didn’t even speak. Your stance is driven by the fear of losing your voter base, without considering the broader interests of the Bulgarian people. This is what is pushing people back into the streets. I call it party selfishness, and you all claim that we must put an end to it. For us, ending party selfishness means that each of us should be willing to make some personal sacrifices for the common good, and the common good is unity. Corruption is the absolute boundary—an issue that cannot be ignored or dismissed. If we head to new elections, what exactly will we achieve?"
Jevdet Chakarov from the "Alliance for Rights and Freedoms" (Dogan faction) expressed his concern during the first session of the 51st National Assembly, highlighting the challenges the country is facing. He pointed to the ongoing economic crisis, low living standards, and political instability, all of which complicate the formation of a stable government. Additionally, Chakarov emphasized the widespread public mistrust following the October 27 elections, citing serious legal violations, falsifications, and corporate vote manipulation. He reiterated the party's support for a declaration from WCC-DB to isolate Delyan Peevski, viewing it as a step toward restoring the rule of law and reducing the influence of oligarchic interests. Chakarov also proposed the creation of a temporary commission to investigate Peevski's role in the Corporate Commercial Bank and the Bulgarian Development Bank failures and his influence on the judiciary.
Stanislav Balabanov of TISP criticized the political, financial, and social turmoil in the country, stating that the nation is in a state of complete chaos, with most institutions collapsing. He argued that while the country's problems, such as healthcare and education reforms, and the demographic crisis, should be the focus, the political agenda is instead dominated by power struggles over who controls key institutions. Balabanov lamented that the political decisions being made are not addressing the real issues but rather are part of a broader effort to consolidate power.
Radostin Vasilev from MECH thanked the 112,000 Bulgarian citizens who supported his party in the recent elections. However, he expressed regret over the widespread vote manipulation, which he believes undermined the legitimacy of the elections and, by extension, the legitimacy of the current parliament.
Acting Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev expressed hope for a regular and stable government to resolve the political crisis. He distanced himself from the ongoing coalition negotiations, stating that the formation of coalitions was not his responsibility. When asked about the protests in Sofia, Glavchev acknowledged the right to protest, as long as it did not disturb others.
The election of the new Speaker of the Parliament remains uncertain, with several parties nominating candidates. GERB has proposed Raya Nazaryan, while "Revival" has put forward Petar Petrov. "BSP - United Left" nominated Natalia Kiselova, an expert in constitutional law. There is also speculation whether Silvi Kirilov will be nominated for Speaker by "There Is Such a People." Meanwhile, MECH, DPS - New Beginning, and APS have not put forward any candidates for the position.
The session took place amidst seven protests in Sofia, the majority of which were concentrated in the so-called triangle of power.

What do you do to be anti caste in praxis
tricky question, idk how to answer this properly. i'll go for it in as practical a way as possible:
participating in public culture method: i'm a phd student, and yes, the student unions in india have really suffered in the last few years, but i was and am part of my previous university's union as well as my current one. i will admit this isn't a perfect answer to participating in public culture, because i do have it easy. i'm generally privileged, and yes, while it was very difficult going against my whole family during some of the movements and protests and putting my future on the line a few times, i still have it a lot easier than many people who come from more marginalised backgrounds. jnu also had some ready political parties for me to support (my particular favourite was BASO and BAPSA), but i think there are many parties that do organise on anti-caste lines, no matter how problematic they are. i have some issues with Chandrashekhar Azad in relation to gender and sexuality, but on the whole, Bhim Army does some decent work. i'd love to vote for BSP (as i am from UP some of this might be related to UP) but i fear they have very little chance of winning, and the situation in UP is very bet on a horse that has a chance right now. i think this is one of the most obvious ways to get policy changes started, if nothing else, which is why i think it is actually important to participate in public culture. i know everyone can't do it, but i make it a point to go home to vote for every major election. however, i also know this is very tricky for people depending on where they are in life. i had very little agency when i was in undergraduate, but i have more now, so that helps.
helping people around you method: this is trickier because it has involved a lot of serious unlearning on my end, because i was and am casteist in ways that show up, and this is the part that really involves making friends with people who are explicitly Not Like Me. and that also means i have to be a friendly, caring, and generally kind individual or no one will want to be friends with me. but this is also one of the best methods - once you are perceived as generally kind and caring by your peers, they are more open about what they might need, and then you can REALLY use your caste privilege for support. and i don't want to say this like an upper caste saviour or anything, but you can really use your privilege to amplify other people's needs and wants. like a bulwark?? you know what i mean. one of the reasons why i ended up on the forefront of negotiations with my teachers was because i was an upper caste girl who generally spoke well and had the privilege to not back down. it was mostly very straightforward things, like my friends not having access to decent internet during the pandemic and needing extensions on all their assignments, but this is something that was doable and we managed it together (literally i remember as i composed messages on one chat with the teachers, i had ann and huda going off on the side about what else we could say and we strategised together. good times). helping the people around you is also one of the easiest ways to learn more: i have a friend for whom i have done a lot of free editing over the years and it's usually dalit studies related, and when i say the research makes you rethink your whole life, the urban employment market, and also your worldview, i really mean it. and of course, this goes without saying, but being generally kind to everyone around you. this is also one of the best and most foolproof ways to make lifelong friends and i think that's just an added bonus of being anti caste, because it DOES give you a fuller life and more caring people around you. and this might sound a bit kitschy and cute, but i am fundamentally of the belief that all praxis and change has to be rooted, intrinsically, in love for the people around you. which is why this method is the one that has been the most fulfilling for me, personally.
talking to my relatives method: the details of which really vary from person to person, but @metamatar has a handy guide here, and i also really like doing something funky with mine (my parents, i mean), which is to make them follow the lack of resources. for example, i was giving an interview at EFLU for the phd seats and when my dad said i must not have gotten it because of reservations, i just said, well there were two seats total because of major fund cuts in education. its not reservations thats the problem but the lack of resources as a whole. this is generally a REALLY good method because it highlights the unfairness of the nation state in one go as well. of course, some relatives are too far gone, but the least you can do (i have found) is criticise them openly so they don't feel comfortable saying that shit around you. i also really like sending counter articles on family groups. once my Maama had sent some nonsense about the farm laws, and instead of debating him i sent a wire article on how the farm laws weren't even just about the farmers. this is, unfortunately, the least rewarding method, but i fear it is also the most absolutely essential.
the method that is most difficult, which is changing how you think method: i have said it before, but of course i haven't unpeeled the layers of conditioning that are still part of me. i think things that generally help me in this is always following the trail of money and labour in the world around me, and seeing where it is rooted. you'd be surprised at how many things are just casteist practices disguised as other things if you just put your mind to it a little.
i think the most difficult thing in all of this has been learning that despite all this, i will still, 100% make mistakes. the most important thing for me is to always do my best to fix them, and to make sure no one gets hurt because of my actions, or exploited. the upshot of this is that i have simply lost the uttar-pradesh-given ability to bargain with anyone. no, really. i can't even do it with autowallahs anymore. and janpath?? forget it. if the man says the pants are for 600 i will simply pay him that if i can afford it or walk away. i was literally in sarojini once and the shopkeeper quoted 400 for like, a cute little shrug or something, and i just walked away and he called me back like ma'am???? aren't you supposed to bargain??? then when i didn't he reduced it himself to 300. then when i was like okay, and started to pay him, he was like omg you are so bhola...... give 200 for it jfc. of course he also flirted with me while doing that, which is the sarojini-given right of all shopkeepers. but you see??? i can't bargain anymore. i just can't do it, if someone says this is the price of my labour i either decide i can afford it or i move on.
what was i saying?? yeah i still make mistakes, all the time. i just try to correct them as best as possible.
EDIT: i forgot, but one thing that i have found works for me is to really amplify reading material and voices that are not mine. like, you know, to always recommend work by dalit and bahujan writers, to always read more of it as well?? that stuff

my current feedback for soul puzzle is : I'm absolutely going to NEED more gameplay modes in the future ( ex. endless , time attack, maybe a collect-a-thon type with prizes or a shuffle picture mode ) . having one sole mode is getting draining for me ... on top of the microtransactions being pretty ... uh , intense , to say the least . since there's no way to earn extra power-ups besides bonus videos or rewards , getting stuck on a level is ... not fun . so I'd love to see a more robust way to earn rewards .
other thoughts :
10 friend limit is insane . i hit friend limit within the first hour . :(
coin drop rate is absurdly low . to me . makes failing suck .
chapter system like BBS , maybe ? or a mission mode ?
other game modes . please ( maybe i'm just low level , yet , IDK , i'm on level 47 )
would love a reward tier system for clearing stages , to set goals for players ( like in BBS ) .
idk , I just thought I expected more from this , since it's a puzzle game , and I am a fan of them . bejeweled is a perfect example of an entertaining puzzle match with numerous modes , so I thought it would be more like that . I'm getting bored & frustrated with BSP , unfortunately ... ! and I don't want to !
" wulf !!!!111!!!! it's a puzzle game !!!11!!! relax !!!!1! " ja , und ? I LOVE PUZZLE GAMES ! and i have STANDARDS . klab , how much moneys does BBS generate for you ? couldn't you have made this release a little more exciting ? this game only has one mode ( like candy crush or smth ------ i'm suffering ) .
well . i can only hope for the future . i hope future updates will make add more to this game .

The return of clubs for the school year 2023-2024
After being stagnant since the COVID-19 Pandemic, the University of the Philippines Integrated School (UPIS) has finally brought back clubs and extracurricular activities for the Academic Year 2023-2024.
Club orientations were held during homeroom period where videos put together by each club were showcased to encourage students into joining. From October 17 to 18, students were given the opportunity to enlist in clubs that they are interested in being a part of. And on October 24 to 25, the final list of club members was released. Currently, club meetings are now held weekly that started last October 27, certain subject-related clubs take place during the first and third Fridays of every month, and others take place during the second and third Fridays of every month.
When asked about the recent challenges in bringing back the clubs now that UPIS is also back in full face-to-face, Justice Aguinaldo, the President of the Pamunuan ng Kamag-Aral (PKA), said that one of them was finalizing the list of club advisers. There were several factors to consider, along with each teacher’s schedule and availability taken into account, comes their experience with a certain club, or if the subject that they are teaching is related to it.
As it has been nearly three years since UPIS last implemented clubs for its pupils, normally a maximum number of students are initially set for the clubs to match the capabilities of each adviser. With this, the PKA has made the decision to create a system that when a club reaches a maximum number of students from each section, the students who got cut off but listed this club as their first choice will be put on a waitlist. If and only if the adviser of that club agrees to let more students in, exceeding the maximum number of members, the waitlisted students can join their first choice. Aguinaldo also added that they decided to include this system as the PKA aims to have a systematic and organized process for accepting club members.
The clubs available for this school year can be classified into three: scouting, subject-related, and special interest clubs. For scouting, Star Scouts, Junior GSP (3-6), BSP (3-6), along with Senior Scouts (7-10) and Senior GSP (7-10) which were the only two clubs that were active during the pandemic, are open. The available subject-related clubs are English Club (3-6 & 7-10), Choir (3-6 & 7-10), Sangguniang Pangwika (3-6 & 7-10), Kilusang Araling Panlipunan (3-6 & 7-10), Math Club (3-6 & 7-10), Science Society (3-6 & 7-10), and Future Homemakers Club (3-6 & 7-10). For special interest clubs, Peer Facilitators Club (7-10) and the ISCF (7-10) or the Inter School Christian Fellowship has welcomed new members as well. // by Daphne De Ramos

Tumblr media
In today’s digital age, WhatsApp has become a crucial platform for businesses aiming to engage with customers effectively and directly. At the heart of this interaction lies the WhatsApp API (Application Programming Interface), a powerful tool that enables businesses to integrate WhatsApp into their systems seamlessly. This article explores what the WhatsApp API entails, how it functions, its benefits, and practical applications for businesses.

How Does WhatsApp API Work?
Here’s a simplified breakdown of how the WhatsApp API operates:
Business Verification: Businesses must apply for verification through WhatsApp Business Solution Providers (BSPs) to use the API. Once verified, they gain access to integrate WhatsApp with their existing systems.
Integration: The API is integrated into the business’s CRM (Customer Relationship Management) or other systems. This integration facilitates seamless communication between the business and its customers via WhatsApp.
Message Handling: Businesses can use the API to send notifications, initiate conversations, respond to customer queries, and automate interactions using chatbots.
Security and Compliance: WhatsApp API prioritizes security, ensuring messages sent via the API are encrypted and comply with WhatsApp’s policies on data privacy.
Benefits of Using WhatsApp API
Integrating WhatsApp API offers several benefits for businesses:
Direct Customer Engagement: WhatsApp is widely used globally, providing businesses with direct access to a large audience base for effective communication and engagement.
Automation: Businesses can automate responses, notifications, and customer interactions, reducing manual effort and enhancing operational efficiency.
Rich Media Support: The API supports various media types such as images, videos, and documents, enabling businesses to deliver rich and engaging content to customers.
Personalization: Using customer data, businesses can personalize messages, enhancing the customer experience and increasing engagement.
Analytics and Insights: WhatsApp API provides analytics tools to track message delivery, customer interactions, and campaign effectiveness, allowing businesses to make informed decisions.
Practical Applications of WhatsApp API
Businesses across industries can leverage WhatsApp API for various purposes:
Customer Support: Provide real-time support, answer FAQs, and resolve issues efficiently through automated responses and human-agent interactions.
Notifications and Alerts: Send order confirmations, delivery updates, appointment reminders, and other critical notifications directly to customers via WhatsApp.
Marketing Campaigns: Run targeted marketing campaigns, send promotions, conduct surveys, and gather customer feedback to drive engagement and sales.
E-commerce Integration: Integrate WhatsApp API with e-commerce platforms to facilitate product browsing, ordering, and customer support directly through WhatsApp.
Internal Communication: Use WhatsApp API for team collaboration, sharing updates, and internal communications, enhancing productivity within the organization.
Future Outlook of WhatsApp API
Looking ahead, the WhatsApp API is set to play an increasingly pivotal role in business communication strategies:
Feature Expansion: WhatsApp continues to enhance API capabilities with new features and functionalities, improving user experience and business utility.
AI and Automation Integration: Integration of AI-powered chatbots and automation will streamline customer interactions and operational processes further.
Global Reach: With its global user base expanding, businesses can connect with customers across diverse markets and regions through WhatsApp.
Security and Compliance: WhatsApp remains committed to data security and compliance, ensuring safe and trustworthy interactions between businesses and customers.
TakeAway
The WhatsApp API offers businesses a powerful platform to enhance customer communication, automate processes, and drive engagement effectively. By integrating the API into their communication strategy, businesses can deliver personalized experiences, improve operational efficiency, and maintain a competitive edge in their industries. Embracing the WhatsApp API enables businesses to build stronger customer relationships and achieve sustainable growth in today’s competitive marketplace.

hello. below is me rambling about my new au - the ancient city one - and what i have down for it all right now. its just me rambling, and i tend to talk like im actually TELLING people about my ideas? like im sitting across from someone explaining it, and i try to imagine im speaking to someone who knows nothing about the sanses to try and like, GRIP the characters right, yknow? so yeah - lol
uh gore warning ig? its only descriptions for now, but i WILL be drawing them at some point!
oh yeah its bsp too lol
Story starts with Cross, who was disowned by his father after the death of his brother, which happened slightly after a very large argument between Cross and said brother. this is set in an old-ish setting. not quite modern day, not quite old timey. more fantasy set time - anyway yeah, Cross gets kicked out and shamed . oh hes human too here, you'll see later-
Cross is supposed to read as slightly unlikable, not fully, but with enough character flaws to balance out his good traits. Hes cold, very ambitious, but quite selfish too. he finds it hard to put himself in others shoes, and is focused, at first, in his own self interest. at the same time, he can be incredibly sweet, and self sacrificing when he wants to be. a hero truly. hes adaptable, and strong willed, even if he can sometimes break down in an anxious mess.
Cus Cross has been disowned, he decides to set out on his own path, alone, with not much on his other than his own survival skills - as all men from his town are trained for war and go through mandatory service, as he decides to treck and explore the world, figuring maybe, if he was luckily, he'd find a NEW home and family..
Eventually, one night, Cross is attacked by wolved while out setting up camp for the night. they destroy everything he'd worked for, and would him near fatally,
One of the wolves got a bit to his head, biting right into his right eye, leaving an awful bite mark over it that forces his eye shut forever. he isnt TECNICALLY blind, but he cant really open it without massive pain, ( it will eventually get infected and need to be removed. but thats WAYY in the future.)
Cross in his mad bid for safety, managed to scale a slight cliff edge, and find a very tight cave on a said cliff edge, managing to climb up over this ledge covered in lichen and algae, and sneaking into the gap that the wolves cannot reach. unfortunately, Cross wasnt expecting the drop.
When Cross wakes up, hes in what can only be described as the ruins of an old settlement, a… city? he thinks? the stone buildings are all destroyed, looking like a bomb has gone off through it, the stone in rubble, but miraculously, there are these glowing blue lanterns handing off posts that make up bridges connecting the little 'islands' of rubble to another in a pattern, those lanterns dim, but glowing faintly enough he can see his way… hes lying in a small pond, or a well or somthing, glowing blue algae covering the water, and HIM by extension, the water cold and soaking him to the bone.
What the hell happened here?
its as Cross is trying to right himself and fugure out where the HELL he is that he sees three figure in the distance...
They move, they walk, but theyre… theyre skeletons...
.... mostly. a couple of them look like they have a LITTLE flesh covering them, but its all mouldy and rotten. theres three of them, and all of them are dressed in dark robes, and covered in that ALGAE-lichen stuff, all that glowing cyan and black colour, spreading over their limbs like a plague. they seem all slightly confused on Cross entering their domain, the shortest one looks at his suspiciously under their cowl, and the tallest, with his awful head wound, pokes and prods at Cross and his broken body with fascination. the other one, with pitch black oozing eye sockets, seems FACINATED with him, excited even, theyre rubbing up against Cross like a cat and getting that black/cyan stuff all over him, Cross to scared and in pain to push it away from him
are they… inhabitants of the past settlement, maybe?
Turns out they can, mostly, speak english. they speak with an accent like no other, one Cross cant place, and use what Cross can only describe as odd and outdated words sometimes, but they seem to be able to understand him, at least. and they understand hes hurt, and needs help..
theyre kinda… well, theyre creepy as shit, no doubt bout it, but theyre not… TRYING to be? theyre curious and weird and a bit gross, but theyre almost CAT like? they purr, they nuzzle, they even fucking SNIFF him at first, and dunk his head under the water when they find his scent distressing. - thats Killer to note - they have fucking TAILS - he sees them when Goopy turns to chirp at his friends-
theyre in different states of decay… though the flesh they DO have is little, and covered by that lichen stuff holding it to their bones like stitches, theyre not ACTIVLY rotting anymore? nor do they really smell?
The smallest one seems to speak for them, not really out of any leadership, but because Goopy doesnt seem to really understand, and Head Wound seems to only make rumbling chirping noises - they ALL make those noises, but… Scarf seems to understand him best, even it they CLEARLY dont trust Cross…
they work for their Master, and lover, a Creature named Nightmare. a being made from that black/cyan stuff, and the one who destroyed this previous kingdom entirely, killing all residents
well all, bar three? are.. well, are they dead or..?
Killer mostly moves on all fours, close to the ground, almost like a spider. he CAN stand upright, but its painful for him, and hes quicker lower to the floor. Dust is the shortest and has these glowing red spots that act like pupils in his eyes, one of them corrupted by the cyan stuff. Horror has an actual EYEBALL still in his left socket - the side with the big wound - while the other is empty. Dust is the least 'decomposed' and still has slight bits of pale tinged-purple-blue skin held to his bones with the algae stuff, but he seems to try and hide it under his layers of clothes. both Killer and Horror have claws, while Dust has his filled down and softer, though still SHARP! Killer is much more intelligent than he appears.
all three of the skeletons used to be human! theyre of a different race to any Cross would know, and mostly lived in caves and hollowed out mountains - theyre usually small people - Horror being what the kingdom would call 'a giant', with a range of skin tones but most being a soft brown, and hair that stems from black to dark red and oranges - they mostly all have dark eyes better suited to dark environment, and good senses
Dust is the most 'intelligent' of the three, seemingly knowing an array of languages and seems to know how to heal. Killer has spikes and bone shards and teeth sticking from his clothes and has a dagger attached to his belt - maybe some kind of warrior? Horror carries a spear with him that he leans on as he walks. he seems to be able to walk fine without it, but uses it almost as a cane - maybe a pain condition over physically not being able to move? with the head wound.. well, does that even MATTER anymore?
Anyways, yeah, noot noot-
Nightmare used to be a spirit of protecting for the city, until a disagreement with his Other Half, quite literally, his twin brother Dream - two beings born of the same soul, which caused Nightmare to corrupt.
Nightmare doesnt show up until at LEAST halfway through the story!
this story will eventually conclude with Cross joining them, and them all falling in love, Cross getting the answers he wants about them, and getting his FAMILY that he desperately craves.
im still working on this obs, but im gonna be doing some drawings of them not lol - obviously theres gonna be a bit of a gore warning -

Uttarakhand Bypoll Analysis: BJP Admits Mistakes in Ticket Distribution
In a surprising turn of events, the recent bypolls in Uttarakhand saw the Congress clinching victory in both Assembly seats, dealing a setback to the ruling BJP. Mahendra Bhatt, the BJP state president, acknowledged that fielding turncoat leaders from other parties was a strategic error that contributed to these losses.
Tumblr media
Analysis of Bypoll Results
Despite its resounding victory in the general elections earlier this year and its recent win in the 2022 Assembly polls, the BJP faltered in the bypolls. The party lost the Manglaur seat, historically challenging for them, and the religiously significant Badrinath seat, where they had previously held a strong position.
Mahendra Bhatt, reflecting on the outcomes, stated, “In Manglaur, where historically we have struggled, we lost by just 422 votes… In Badrinath, the contest was close throughout, with margins as slim as 200–300 votes per round. We need to thoroughly assess our strategy moving forward.”
Admission of Mistakes
One significant factor Bhatt highlighted was the decision to award tickets to leaders who had recently switched allegiance from the Congress. “During the Lok Sabha elections, we assured these leaders of tickets for the Assembly seats. In hindsight, this decision was a mistake,” Bhatt admitted during a state working committee meeting.
He further pledged to review these decisions and rectify any errors in future electoral strategies. Bhatt emphasized, “I am committed to reclaiming Badrinath for the BJP soon.”
Key Contestants and Their Backgrounds
The Badrinath bypoll saw Rajendra Singh Bhandari, a three-time Congress MLA who joined BJP earlier this year, losing to Congress’s Lakhpat Singh Butola by 5,224 votes. This loss is seen as a significant shift in the political landscape of Garhwal, where BJP previously held all 14 Assembly segments.
In Manglaur, Kartar Singh Bhadana, a recent BJP entrant from BSP and brother of noted politician Avtar Singh Bhadana, lost to senior Congress leader Qazi Nizamuddin by a narrow margin of 422 votes. This seat, traditionally contested between Congress and BSP, showcased a competitive environment.
Conclusion
The bypoll results serve as a critical reminder to the BJP of the importance of candidate selection and strategic planning. As they navigate the fallout from these losses, the party aims to regroup and strengthen its position in Uttarakhand politics.

Bulgarian President Rumen Radev has initiated discussions with potential candidates for acting prime minister, marking a pivotal moment in the country's political landscape. With the resignation of Deputy Ombudsman Elena Cherneva Markova, the list of possibilities has narrowed to nine, prompting intense deliberations at the highest levels of government.
The Chairman of the National Assembly, Rosen Zhelyazkov, emerged as a frontrunner for the role, meeting with President Radev at the "Dondukov" 2 presidential residence. Zhelyazkov's presence underscores the gravity of the situation as Bulgaria navigates the complexities of forming an interim government.
In addition to Zhelyazkov, two other prominent figures are slated to meet with President Radev today: Dimitar Radev, the governor of the Bulgarian National Bank, and Dimitar Glavchev, the chairman of the Audit Chamber. Each candidate brings unique perspectives and experiences to the table, reflecting the diverse array of challenges facing the nation.
The consultations come against the backdrop of Bulgaria's looming early parliamentary election, triggered by the return of an unfulfilled third mandate to form a government by the parliamentary group of "There Is Such a People." The decision underscores the deep-seated political gridlock gripping the country and the urgency of finding a viable path forward.
Amidst the political maneuvering, leaders from various parties have weighed in on the unfolding situation. Boyko Borissov, leader of GERB, urged President Radev to avoid selecting Zhelyazkov or Glavchev as acting prime minister, citing concerns over their affiliations. Meanwhile, BSP Chairwoman Kornelia Ninova anticipates the likelihood of "elections 2 in 1," acknowledging the potential for constitutional tensions but expressing confidence in a resolution.
Constitutional expert Plamen Kirov offered insights into potential scenarios, suggesting that Gorica Kozhareva, deputy chairman of the Audit Chamber, could emerge as a caretaker prime minister. However, Kirov cautioned against constitutional crises, emphasizing the need for stability and adherence to constitutional principles.
With the mandate to organize fair and free elections, the caretaker government faces immense pressure to uphold democratic norms and steer the country towards a brighter future.

SP MP R K Chaudhary Calls for Removing Sengol, Upholds Dalit Politics in UP
R K Chaudhary, a first-time Samajwadi Party (SP) MP from Uttar Pradesh, has sparked a debate by demanding the removal of the Sengol sceptre and emphasizing the importance of Dalit politics in the state. Here are the key points from his recent interview with The Indian Express:
Tumblr media
The Sengol Controversy
Chaudhary, a former member of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), criticized the installation of the Sengol sceptre, suggesting it dilutes the significance of Babasaheb Ambedkar’s Constitution. He argued that the BJP and RSS prefer Manusmriti over the Constitution, reflecting a move towards monarchic symbolism rather than democratic principles.
Political Journey and Demands
Having been associated closely with Kanshi Ram and the BSP, Chaudhary outlined his political journey and reasons for shifting allegiance to the SP. His demand to replace the Sengol with a Constitution replica aims to reinforce democratic values and diminish symbols of monarchy.
Dalit Politics and Electoral Shifts
Chaudhary highlighted shifts in Dalit politics in Uttar Pradesh, noting how votes from the BSP moved towards the SP without direct solicitation. He emphasized the SP’s role in forming a coalition akin to the Bahujan Samaj, aiming to represent marginalized communities effectively.
Future Prospects and Criticisms
Regarding the recent UP Lok Sabha results, Chaudhary expressed confidence in Akhilesh Yadav’s leadership and the SP’s future prospects. He critiqued Mayawati’s leadership while acknowledging the changing dynamics within Dalit politics.
Conclusion
Chaudhary’s outspoken stance on constitutional values and Dalit empowerment underscores ongoing debates within Indian politics. His insights into electoral shifts and party dynamics reflect broader movements towards social justice and political representation in Uttar Pradesh.
Stay tuned for more updates on political developments and electoral strategies impacting Uttar Pradesh and beyond.

WhatsApp API for Effective Event Promotion
Tumblr media
Reaching a wider audience has become more accessible and efficient. Among these tools, WhatsApp stands out due to its vast user base and high engagement rates. Integrating WhatsApp API into your event promotion strategy can provide a personalized, direct, and efficient way to engage with your audience. Get access to this panel by choosing a reliable whatsapp business api service provider in india.
Understanding WhatsApp API
WhatsApp API is a powerful tool designed for businesses to interact with their customers on WhatsApp. Unlike the standard WhatsApp app, the API allows for automation, integration with customer relationship management (CRM) systems, and mass messaging within the constraints of WhatsApp's policies. It enables businesses to send notifications, customer support messages, and promotional content directly to users' WhatsApp accounts.
Benefits of Using WhatsApp API for Event Promotion
Direct and Personalized Communication: WhatsApp messages have a high open rate compared to emails. With the API, you can send personalized messages to your audience, making them feel valued and informed about the event.
Automated Messaging: The API allows for the automation of messages. You can set up automated reminders, updates, and follow-ups, ensuring that your audience stays engaged and informed without manual effort.
Rich Media Support: WhatsApp supports various media formats, including text, images, videos, and documents. This allows you to create engaging and informative content to promote your event.
Steps to Implement WhatsApp API for Event Promotion
Register and Set Up
To get started, you need to register for WhatsApp Business API through a WhatsApp Business Solution Provider (BSP). Once registered, set up your WhatsApp Business profile, including your business name, description, contact information, and event details.
Integrate with CRM:
Integrate the WhatsApp API with your CRM system to manage your contacts efficiently. This integration allows you to segment your audience and send targeted messages based on their preferences and behaviors.
Create Engaging Content:
Develop engaging and informative content for your messages. Use a mix of text, images, videos, and links to your event's landing page or registration form. Ensure that your content is concise, clear, and includes a call-to-action.
Automate Messaging Campaigns
Set up automated messaging campaigns to send out event announcements, reminders, and updates. Schedule messages to be sent at optimal times to maximize engagement. Use the API to track message delivery and open rates to refine your strategy.
Engage with Your Audience:
Use the two-way communication feature to interact with your audience. Respond to queries, provide additional information, and engage in conversations to build excitement and trust.
Best Practices for Using WhatsApp API
Respect Privacy: Ensure that you have explicit consent from your audience before sending them promotional messages. Respect their privacy and provide an option to opt-out of future communications.
Stay Relevant: Keep your messages relevant and valuable to your audience. Avoid spamming them with frequent or irrelevant content, as this can lead to higher opt-out rates.
Monitor Performance: Regularly monitor the performance of your messaging campaigns. Analyze metrics such as open rates, click-through rates, and engagement levels to optimize your strategy.
Adhere to Guidelines: Follow WhatsApp's guidelines and best practices for using the API. Avoid sending unsolicited messages and ensure that your content complies with their policies.

Rahul Gandhi Faces Dilemma Over Retaining Wayanad or Rae Bareli Lok Sabha Seat
In a political conundrum that has significant implications for the Congress party's strategy, Rahul Gandhi is reportedly torn between retaining the Wayanad seat in Kerala or the Rae Bareli seat in Uttar Pradesh for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. This dilemma underscores the broader challenges facing the Congress as it attempts to regain political ground in a highly competitive landscape.
Rahul Gandhi, who has represented Wayanad since 2019, and Rae Bareli, a seat traditionally held by his mother Sonia Gandhi, finds himself at a crossroads. The decision is complicated by the differing political dynamics and strategic importance of both constituencies.
Wayanad has been a stronghold for Rahul Gandhi since he secured a decisive victory there in the 2019 general elections, marking his influence in South India. Retaining Wayanad could solidify his presence in the region and appeal to the southern electorate, which has shown a growing inclination towards the Congress party in recent years. The state of Kerala remains one of the few states where the Congress has maintained a robust support base, and a continued focus on Wayanad could strengthen this foothold.
On the other hand, Rae Bareli carries a legacy significance for the Gandhi family. Represented by Sonia Gandhi since 2004, it is one of the few remaining bastions of the Congress party in Uttar Pradesh, a state crucial for any national electoral success. The decision to contest from Rae Bareli could be seen as a move to rejuvenate the party's fortunes in Uttar Pradesh, where the Congress has been struggling against the dominance of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and regional parties like the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP).
Political analysts suggest that the choice between Wayanad and Rae Bareli is not just about electoral calculations but also about the broader message it sends to the party's cadre and supporters. Retaining Rae Bareli might signal a commitment to revitalizing the Congress in the Hindi heartland, a region critical to winning national elections. Conversely, sticking with Wayanad could indicate a strategic pivot towards consolidating gains in southern states, where the BJP's influence is relatively weaker.
Amidst this decision-making process, senior Congress leaders are reportedly engaged in intense deliberations to evaluate the political ramifications. The choice Rahul Gandhi makes will likely impact the party's campaign strategy and its alignment with regional dynamics.
As the election approaches, the Congress party's ability to balance its historical legacies with contemporary political realities will be tested. Rahul Gandhi's decision on whether to retain Wayanad or Rae Bareli will be pivotal in shaping the Congress party's electoral prospects and its future trajectory in Indian politics.

The Latest:
- I’ve gotten to the point where I can get high AAs/solid AAAs on sightreads for most 6-8s and even some 9s and 10s. Which probably means I should focus on those less and start really working on stamina with 10s-12s and get more 13s in.
- I’ve gotten two (2) Perfect Full Combos now. One on Bloody Tears DSP, one on Zephyranthes BSP. Which, again, if I can pull that off on a 6/7, it’s probably time to start pushing the bar.
- I definitely lost some steam after having to take a few weeks off. I had a bad cold and also a minor surgery that prevented me from doing much of anything for a while. I could literally feel my legs ache from disuse while I sat on the couch, that was a first.
- Cleared Healing Vision Angelic Mix ESP for the first time the other day. That’s one I always thought was just downright impossible in my youth. Definitely want to keep that in the rotation, it’s very stream heavy and will be good practice for the even harder stuff down the road.
- I haven’t cleared ÆTHER DSP yet but I’m getting closer. I’m going to R1 tomorrow so I’m hoping to give it another try. I can get past the part where it speeds back up, but it gets noticeably harder at that point.
That’s all the major updates for now. Hope I have a 15 in me in the near future.

How can I switch from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp API
As your business scales and your communication needs evolve, transitioning from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp Business API becomes a strategic decision. While both offer unique benefits, the API unlocks a wider range of functionalities, integrations, and automation capabilities, paving the way for enhanced customer engagement and streamlined operations.
Tumblr media
Understanding the Differences between WhatsApp Business and WhatsApp API:
Before diving into the transition process, let's establish a clear understanding of the key differences between these two solutions:
WhatsApp Business: Designed for small and medium businesses, it offers basic features like chat functionalities, contact management, and message broadcasting. Users manage the application directly on their smartphones, limiting scalability and automation possibilities.
WhatsApp Business API: Built for enterprises with high message volume and complex communication needs. It allows integration with CRM systems, automates workflows, and enables advanced features like chatbots and multi-agent management. Businesses interact with the API through software tools, unlocking automation and customization advantages.
Key Considerations for Transitioning from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp API:
The decision to switch requires careful evaluation of various factors:
Business Needs: Assess your current and future communication requirements. Analyze message volume, customer interaction complexity, and desired automation levels. The API is ideal for businesses seeking advanced features and scalability.
Technical Expertise: Implementing the API requires technical knowledge or partnerships with Business Solution Providers (BSPs) who offer integration and management services. Evaluate your in-house capabilities and explore external support options.
Costs: Understand the pricing structures of both solutions. While the API typically incurs per-message charges, it can offer cost savings in the long run through automation and process efficiency. Analyze the cost-benefit ratio based on your usage patterns.
Pre-Migration Checklist for WhatsApp Business API:
Ensure a smooth transition by preparing your resources beforehand:
Backup Chat History: While transferring chat history to the API isn't possible directly, consider utilizing third-party tools or manual export solutions to preserve valuable data.
Verify WhatsApp Number: The chosen phone number must be registered and verified on the WhatsApp Business App before migration.
Choose a BSP: If technical expertise is limited, select a reputable BSP with experience and expertise in API integration and management.
Gather Business Information: Prepare necessary details like business name, address, website, and industry classification for registration with the Meta Business Platform.
The WhatsApp Business API Migration Process:
The steps involved in switching from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp Business API vary depending on your chosen approach:
Direct Integration: Requires technical expertise and involves complex coding processes. Partnering with a BSP simplifies this process by leveraging their pre-built solutions and support systems.
BSP-Led Migration: Collaborate with a chosen BSP who will guide you through the process, handle registration, configure the API, and connect it to your systems.
Steps to Transition from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp API
Assess Your Needs: Before making the transition, carefully assess your business needs and objectives. Determine what features and capabilities are essential for your messaging strategy and ensure that WhatsApp API can meet those requirements.
Review WhatsApp's Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with WhatsApp's Business Policy and API Documentation to understand the rules and guidelines for using WhatsApp API. Ensure that your messaging practices comply with WhatsApp's policies to avoid any disruptions or penalties.
Select a WhatsApp Business Solution Provider: Choose a reliable WhatsApp Business Solution Provider (BSP) that offers WhatsApp API integration services. Look for providers with experience in implementing WhatsApp API for businesses in your industry and inquire about their pricing, features, and support options.
Plan Your Migration: Develop a migration plan outlining the steps involved in transitioning from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp API. Consider factors such as data migration, message templates, automation workflows, and integration with existing systems.
Configure WhatsApp API: Work with your chosen BSP to configure WhatsApp API according to your business requirements. This may involve setting up message templates, configuring automation rules, and integrating WhatsApp with your CRM or other business applications.
Train Your Team: Provide training and guidance to your team members on how to use WhatsApp API effectively. Ensure that they understand the features and capabilities of WhatsApp API and how it differs from WhatsApp Business.
Test and Iterate: Conduct thorough testing of your WhatsApp API integration to identify any issues or areas for improvement. Iterate on your messaging strategies based on feedback and analytics data to optimize performance.
Launch and Monitor: Once everything is set up and tested, launch your WhatsApp API integration, and monitor its performance closely. Track key metrics such as message delivery rates, response times, and customer engagement to ensure that your messaging strategy is achieving the desired results.
Key Features and Benefits of WhatsApp Business API:
Once migrated, your business unleashes the following advantages:
Scalability: Handle high message volumes effortlessly, supporting large customer bases and peak communication periods.
Automation: Utilize chatbots, auto-replies, and message scheduling to streamline workflows and save valuable time.
Integrations: Connect the API with your CRM, marketing automation, or other business systems for unified communication and data management.
Multi-Agent Management: Assign team members to manage customer interactions efficiently, ensuring timely responses and personalized support.
Advanced Features: Leverage functionalities like real-time analytics, location sharing, and rich media messages to enhance customer engagement.
Beyond the Transition: Best Practices for Success in WhatsApp Business API:
Optimize your WhatsApp Business API experience by following these best practices:
Develop a Clear Communication Strategy: Define your goals, target audience, and messaging approach to ensure consistency and effectiveness.
Personalize Interactions: Leverage customer data and insights to personalize greetings, offers, and communication styles.
Optimize Response Times: Set expectations for reply times and promptly address customer inquiries to maintain trust and satisfaction.
Measure and Analyze Performance: Track message delivery rates, customer engagement metrics, and campaign effectiveness to refine your strategies.
Ensure Data Security and Privacy: Adhere to data privacy regulations and implement robust security measures to protect customer information.
Transitioning from WhatsApp Business to WhatsApp API represents a significant step forward for businesses looking to enhance their messaging capabilities and reach a larger audience more effectively. By following the steps outlined in this guide and leveraging the benefits of WhatsApp API, businesses can create a more personalized, efficient, and secure communication experience for their customers.

Evaluate your needs and choose a BSP (if needed).
Prepare resources like backup chat history and verify your WhatsApp number.

Register with the Meta Business Platform and configure the API.
