Hi! May I request a character profile for Shuri Udaku from Black Panther? If that is alright with you.
𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞���� 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞: 𝑆ℎ𝑢𝑟𝑖 𝑈𝑑𝑎𝑘𝑢 ✨
𝐌𝐁𝐓𝐈
𝑬𝑵𝑻𝑷 | 𝑇𝘩𝑒 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑏𝑙𝑎𝑧𝑒𝑟
Shuri is Wakanda's youthful tech genius. The one people look to for new technology, for updates, for ... protection. She's innovative, creative and headstrong. Also incredibly stubborn and passionate; Shuri really is a goddamn trailblazer.
𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓
𝑳𝒂𝒘𝒇𝒖𝒍 𝑵𝒆𝒖𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒍
Yes, I know a lot of you weren't exactly expecting that. Shuri often breaks the rules, she is chaotic, which my first thought was - Chaotic Good. But she loves Wakanda, she loves her family and she has done everything to keep those traditions alive.
While Shuri respects these traditions and values, she is also shown to be open to change and adaptation.
𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐎𝐓 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐃
𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒏
Upright: Manifestation, resourcefulness, power, inspired action Reversed: Manipulation, poor planning, untapped talents
The Magician card represents Shuri's resourcefulness, creativity, adaptability, and her ability to wield her knowledge and skills to bring about positive change.
The Magician card represents manifesting one's intentions, creativity, resourcefulness, and the ability to harness the powers of the universe to bring about change.
Shuri embodies these qualities through her exceptional intellect, technological prowess, and innovative mindset. She is a masterful inventor and scientist, constantly creating and utilizing advanced technology to serve her nation and protect her people. The Magician card also signifies adaptability and versatility, which are evident in Shuri's ability to quickly adapt to new situations and come up with creative solutions.
𝐒𝐔𝐍
𝑨𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒖𝒔
Aquarius is often associated with innovation, intellect, and a forward-thinking mindset. Shuri's technological expertise, inventiveness, and desire to push the boundaries align with some of the traits commonly associated with Aquarius.
𝐌𝐎𝐎𝐍
𝑮𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒊
Gemini is known for curiosity, adaptability, and versatility. Shuri's ability to quickly adapt to new situations, her multifaceted interests and talents, as well as her quick-witted and communicative nature, definitely remind me of Gemini - especially in her moon aspect.
𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆/𝐀𝐒𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐓
𝑨𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔
Aries individuals are often characterized as confident, independent, and driven. Shuri has so much goddamn drive; it's ambition mixed with passion and that's Aries. Shuri's assertiveness, leadership qualities, and her willingness to take charge made this a pretty easy choice.
𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐘
𝑮𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒊
Shuri is like a lightning bolt; offering opinions, ideas and insights in the blink of an eye. With her agile mind, and ability to process information so quickly, all align with the qualities associated with this aspect. (Sidenote: Shuri would actually make a great Doctor Who!)
𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐒
Okay so this was really difficult because it's totally upto interpretation. I couldn't choose between Gemini, Aquarius or Aries for her Venus aspect. But ultimately, I've gone with Gemini. I know you might be thinking, 'jesus she's chosen gemini for so much,' but Shuri is like ... the embodiment of Gemini.
𝑮𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒊
With the ever so fleeting moments of romance she had with Namor - Shuri brightens up when they're on the same communication level. I think there would be something about engaging conversations and a partner who can keep up with her quick-wittedness and diverse range of interests. Shuri would be attracted to individuals who can engage her intellectually and stimulate her curiosity.
𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐒
𝑺𝒂𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒖𝒔
Sagittarius is associated with adventurousness, enthusiasm, and a desire for freedom. With a Sag Mars, it shows that Shuri possesses a thirst for knowledge and a drive to explore the world around her. Her actions are guided by a sense of purpose and a desire to seek truth and wisdom. Shuri is an energetic and optimistic individual, always seeking new experiences and pushing her boundaries.

I saw y'all discussing potential zodiac signs for Pascal's characters, what's your take on the major ones? I personally believe Marcus Pike is a cancer, Catfish's a pisces, Din's a virgo, Whiskey's an aries, Oberyn's either a leo or a libra, Ezra's a gemini or a sag, but I lean towards gemini. Javier's the poster child for Scorpio. Don't know about Maxwell Lord.
pedro character star signs
i’m so sorry it took so long, i was tweaking this so much bc i wanted to make sure i got it right! these are just what i think based on my astrology opinions, i hope you like it! 💕 i added their moon signs for flair bc i can. gonna tag a few friends i think may be interested, hope it’s not an inconvenience
max phillips: aries sun & moon. his ambition and charisma paired with the carefree attitude and optimism are an optimum fire sign duality and despite the fact i shouldn't, i love it so much. he has an inner child that he spoils with the riches of his conquests (good and bad) & gets emotional contentment when he succeeds in achieving his goals. knows what he wants & is quick to make those wants known. you never have to worry about where you stand with him because he will not hesitate to tell you.
javier peña: taurus sun with scorpio moon (the real guy is a taurus & i can see it but w heavy scorpio influence). he has his own structure and routine and will fight to the death to maintain it. very work oriented & does his best to rationalize his emotion-driven scorpio moon with his taurean logic, it's a tossup as to whether it works half the time. has a lot of emotional needs that aren't always met day to day & thats why he smokes and drinks and fucks. but don’t let anything make you doubt his love for you because the only thing stronger than his stubborn streak is his heart and its capacity to love you so damn much.
maxwell lord: libra sun with a sagittarius moon. the charisma? attractive and engaging af. oddly adept at chameleoning himself into whatever social group he's trying to vibe with. will draw eyes no matter what because so many people know him & if they don't already, they sure as hell want to. it takes him a while to learn to balance healthy relationships and his work life but when he does, you can visibly see how much healthier he is because of it. normally tends to his emotions in private but with help, he can start sharing a bit more. more optimistic than he sometimes should be but it could be worse
frankie morales: pisces sun with a cancer moon. his caring and sometimes cautious nature (with a twinge of homicidal tendencies) make him one that you don't just casually fuck with sexually or otherwise. catches feelings very easy & makes a lot of emotionally-driven decisions. these two water signs have a propensity towards codependence & defensiveness when hurt. is at his best when he feels loved and is supported by those he loves. emotions are always fluctuating and there’s some trouble with self-discipline (which is not the same as self-deprecation). because of this, he needs someone who can ground him
jack "whiskey" daniels: his swagger!! his charm!! his generosity!! the protectiveness over people he cares about!! this has the makings of a leo sun. this charismatic sun sign paired with his capricorn moon create a living example of the most balanced "work hard, play hard" you've ever seen. has a tendency to set high standards for himself and others & is a smidge more accepting when people fuck up, wanting to help them be better in the future. his emotions are often repressed in the name of responsibility but when he feels safe, he isn’t shy about them in the slightest. very confident in his skills & one of those that he’s the proudest of is his ability to cheer you up when you’re sad
din djarin: he is the most virgo virgo to ever virgo, a double whammy of it in both his sun & moon placements. very logical, disciplined, and tradition-oriented. knows how to bargain and budget, approaches problems with as little emotional attachment as he can (doesn't always work though), and is selfless af. needs something to keep him from being a worry wart bc otherwise he will spend every waking moment fretting over anything he can find. remarkably well-rounded & somehow the most emotionally stable
ezra: everything about this man radiates aquarius sun + gemini moon and you will never convinve me otherwise. he's just enough of an intellectual elitist (the big words and flowy shakespearian vocabulary) for it to border on unique and fun & annoying as fuck. every aquarian i've met has a quirk that sets them apart from everyone else & ezra's quirk (besides murder) is his vocabulary. it takes him a long time to learn to not talk over people on accident (sometimes he does on purpose just to be a bastard), but you can tell when he’s really trying to be conscious of it.
marcus moreno: now this man is what you call a pisces. a softie with a heart of gold that is constantly being underestimated, he has more power than most think. his silly and carefree nature detracts from the badassery he's capable of so it sometimes catches you off guard when he goes into Badass In Charge™️ mode but it’s there. his moon is also in pisces, which adds to his gentility and desire to be understood by his partner. this man just needs some love dammit, give it to him already!! his empathy makes him the Cool Dad™️ bc missy and literally any other kid get the vibe of “yeah this adult will actually listen to me and value my opinions”
dave: capricorn sun, aries moon. he thrives with people who can handle their own shit competency kink anyone? and doesn’t have patience with those who should know better. his standards are higher than a stoned giraffe, and is at his best in controlled environments. has a strong sense of self & a short list of people he would risk it all for. not as outwardly expressive but he does have a couple cues that you learn over time. also knows what he wants and is very meticulous in how he goes about getting it; there are very few places where he takes no for an answer. is a very good provider but don’t expect him to be mushy when you thank him for things he does for you.
oberyn martell: gemini sun & leo moon. he’s got more charisma than can fit in the ocean and sometimes it gets him into trouble. this man thrives on validation from loved ones. there is never a worry about not knowing what he’s feeling because oh boy is this man expressive. he’s a protector and a provider (and a gossip but don’t let him hear you say that). can and will cause a scene if there’s ample opportunity, he enjoys watching shit go down. will only interfere if it directly impacts him or someone he really cares about but otherwise will just pop the popcorn and pull up a seat. somehow has all the details of everything that ever happens but you learn to not question it.
pero tovar: scorpio sun (but specifically october scorpio) & aquarius moon. he’s highly rational when it comes to emotions but does have a temper. he’s observant af of his environment & the emotions of everyone around him, and chooses his actions carefully based on those. doesn’t confront his deeper emotions as often as he should bc it’s easier to default to Angy™️ and let the rest of the world come to their own assumptions. has no tolerance for lies and other bs, wants the truth and though it makes him seem power-hungry and manipulative, that’s not his intention. it’s just his way of looking for someone he can trust with the most intimate parts of him
marcus pike: this man? taurus sun, cancer moon. has a fear of abandonment that takes a while to quell but once it’s gone, he’s all in. he’s very empathetic and observant af, will know exactly what you need before you voice said need. will feel guilty for his baggage sometimes and the guilt will make him recluse for a short period until he’s reminded just how appreciated he is. does not play around when it comes to affection & is very eager to give and receive it whenever possible
my friends that i think might be interested: @scribbledghost @autumnleaves1991-blog @dyke--grayson @max--phillips @dindjarindiaries @pikemoreno @ohnopoe @pedropasscals @forever-rogue @engineeredfiction @bitchin-beskar

SQUAD A: Primary function--assault and destruction. Operative 07, codename ""Delilah" Previous attempts to recreate Hulk-like abilities have invariably met with disaster due to the accompanying berzerker rage. The Section 11 scientists took a different approach and instead tried to replicate the work of Dr. Samson, tying the particular super-strength of the Hulk to the length of the subject's hair. Trace genetic samples of the Red Hulk were used in experimentation on a test subject. Project deemed a partial success, though "Delilah" still has high levels of aggression and can be difficult to control, particularly if her hair length is not maintained within optimal parameters. Operative 01 has displayed a marked affinity for her, but so far experiments involving attempts at breeding have met with no success. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: "Breeding?" Are you serious with this? Damnit, those eggheads are messed up.] Operative 08, codename "Waif" "Waif" is unusual in not coming from the usual pool of test subjects, but is in fact the natural daughter of one of Section 11's lead scientists, Dr. Yamanaka. Her powers emerged at a young age uncontrollably during a traumatic car accident that killed one of her closest friends. Her powers were uncontrollable and destructive until the implant could be successfully installed. Though Dr. Yamanaka has attempted, since, to speak with his daughter, she does not seem to recognize him or anyone from her old family at all. "Waif" is one of the few operatives in Section 11 permitted to wear non-standard gear, as disruptions to her daily routine have been observed to have a negative impact on her stability. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Guy lobotomized his own daughter. No wonder she won't talk to him.] Operative 09, codename "Samurai." "Samurai" is a clone created by Dr. Akimichi, spliced with DNA from the metahuman Blob. His armor is developed based on intense study of the metahuman Juggernaut and his armor. Though docile and responding well to direction, "Wamurai" has little initiative of his own. He also does not speak, and only communicates through "Waif." He has been observed to have a calming impact on her, hence why the two are paired together. "Samurai" also carries a series of steroids and stimulants for use in high-stress combat situations, and has received military training. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Love this kid. Like a minature tank.] *Note: Given the volatile nature of the group, they require extensive coordination. Dr. Nara's "Deer" AI has proven useful in this task, supplemented by Shadow drones capable of observing and compiling data.** **Further Note: Dr. Nara's "Deer" AI has been flagged for review after numerous incidents displaying near-sentience, including several statements curiously similar to Dr. Nara's late son. Director Danzou has ordered an investigation into thJA)djs&(*Yhiue---------RECORD DELETED
SQUAD B--Primary Function: Infiltration and Recon Operative 03: "Gemini 1" Gemini 1 is not suited to intense combat situations unless supported by Gemini 2. Her primary skill set is stealth, infiltration, and cyberops. Similar to Gemini 2, she possesses hyper-optogrophy and can see in multiple layers of the spectrum, including infrared, ultraviolet, and x-ray. Energy blasts from the palms are able to target internal organs. Tests have also confirmed a psychic link between her and Gemini 2, wherein information and even physical pain can be conveyed between one and the other. Gemini 1 has also been observed to have a notable attraction to Operative 01, which might possibly be useful. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Who authorized that test, and how was "physical pain" determined?] Operative 04: "Gemini 2" Gemini 2 is the twin of Gemini 1 and possesses all her abilities. He has a much higher combat aptitude, and has been noted in field operations to have a particular protective instinct involving Gemini 1. It has also been noted that Gemini 2's combat effectiveness dips noticeably when confronted with anti-citizens Kusanagi and Green Beast. Confrontations should be avoided. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Who did we get these twins from, I wonder. Probably from one of the "clinics."] Operative 05: "Weapon K" Weapon K is the most successful emulation of the Weapon X project thus far. Though it is still difficult to maintain complete control, and the adamantium binding process was not entirely successful, still he retains the all-important healing factor acquired from Weapon X, as well as the heightened senses. Weapon K handles the majority of combat situations that Squad B encounters, though he is indiscreet and tends to leave a mess behind. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Just something not right about this boy.] Operative 06: "Shino Entity" It has yet to be determined whether Shino Entity is, in fact, a budding psychic who was consumed by insects and gained control of them, or merely a strange collective of psychic insects under a shared delusion of once having been human. Investigation is ongoing, though attempts to isolate and inspect individual insects of the hive mind have been counter-productive, as Shino Entity has invariably become aware of the isolation and dissection of members of his hive mind. Accordingly, invasive experiments have for the moment been suspended to ensure his ongoing collaboration. His skill set is incredibly valuable and unique, however, enabling mass recon on a almost simultaneous response, and while not suited to combat, is essentially indestructible. Shino Entity requires little care save maintenance of the containment suit and a daily piece of rotten meat. This seems sufficient to have earned his cooperation, along with a curious affinity for the other members of Squad B--though it still has not been determined how he manages to speak. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: I don't really care where he came from. As long as he keeps up his work, he can call himself Shino or Lord Nelson for all I care.] LEADERSHIP TEAM Commader Kakashi: Field Commander. Last living member of the original Section 11 team, Commander Kakshi has been declared not fit for combat due to the injury suffered to his eye during the Apocalypse Incident. He now serves Section 11 in a supervisory tactical role, planning out missions to accomplish goals as set by the rest of the leadership. Though not strictly required, Commander Kakashi makes a habit of deploying with the Section 11 Operatives whenever possible, a practice which Section Chief Danzou has cited him for numerous times. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Let the old man complain, I'm not sending kids out there without backup.] Dr. Tsunade: Head of Mutagenic Studies. Dr. Tsunade left a promising career at Tokyo University to lead the medical and study wing of Section 11. She is in charge of monitoring the operative's physical state and the nature of their mutations, as well as any new mutations that arise. Dr. Tsunade's connection to the program is more than professional, as her grandfather was closely involved in its creation, a fact which may have weighed into her decision to join. Dr. Tsunade also considers herself in charge of the operative's well-being, a matter which has also led her to clash with Section Chief Danzou. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: The lady should be in charge from everything I've seen. Though what she did to the meeting table makes me wonder if her studies have been leading to more practical applications of mutagens, recently.] Dr. Inoichi: Section Chief Danzou's successful recruitment of the famous "Ino-Shika-Cho" team may be considered one of the great accomplishments of his administration. Dr. Inoichi joined the program out of desperation to find some solution to his daughter's newly awakened powers, and his two friends followed him. A neurology specialist, Dr. Inoichi has done groundbreaking work regarding metahuman psychics and extra-natural brain structure. He devised the device which currently helps his daughter to keep her powers in check, which is currently under development for possible use against enemy psychics. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Why does the record note this as an accomplishment of Danzou's? Inoichi joined us because of his daughter's accident, Danzou had nothing to do with it.] Dr. Shikaku: Shikaku, a renowned specialist in artificial intelligence and computer learning simulations, joined the program alongside his friend. His algorithms run much of the training programs that the operatives use, as well as much of the predictive software crucial to Section 11's smooth operation. The death of his son left him emotionally distant and he has a noted reluctance to meet with any of the operatives outside of Inoichi's daughter. Much of his work since joining Section 11 has been on his prototype ASI "Shika" and its proxy drone. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: I swear, that thing almost seems sometimes like it's actually senti303@..%$)(~~~- ERROR DATA CORRUPTION... Dr. Chouza: The final member of the Ino-Shika-Cho team, Dr. Chouza's specialty runs more in the physical arena than either of his friends, primarily involving force multipliers such as the Hulk and Blob. His "Choji" clone program has potential to create an entire army once the formula has been perfected and the laboratory repaired. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: Chouza's heart isn't in this, and that laboratory will never be fixed if he has anything to say about it.] Section Chief Danzou: Despite his near-fatal injuries from the Apocalypse Incident, Section Chief Danzou has transformed Section 11 into an elite fighting force in the wake of his predecessor. The current roster and focus of the division is entirely due to his guidance. He has a noted tendency for keeping his plans to himself and frequently overrules his leadership staff. [COMMANDER'S NOTE: There is reason to believe that the old man has an even more dark-ops organization on the side, for missions he considers too sensitive even for Section 11.]

Super Fighting Roll (2-4)
(After finally learning the truth about Break Man, Roll sets off to rescue Rock from his clutches. However, there are far more Robot Masters than she bargained for lying in wait.)
Roll flew down into the lab on Rush’s back, nervously surveying the destruction. Light was still hard at work repairing the transporter system, meanwhile LaLinde busied herself patching up Elec Man, Guts Man, and Fire Man. Tempo stood not far away, eyes fixed on the broken scaffolding until she heard Roll land.
“Roll!” Tempo said. “I-I’m sorry...they…”
“Are you alright?” Roll asked.
“I’m...I’m fine. I was upstairs when it happened. I...wasn’t able to stop Break Man...and now, Rock…” She shook her head. “I’m sorry.”
Roll came forward, gently setting a hand on Tempo’s arm. “Tempo, you don’t have to apologize. I know you’re still healing, and trying to force your way past that is only going to make things worse. I’ll get Rock back--everything’s going to be okay.”
Tempo slowly nodded. Roll turned to LaLinde, asking, “How are they?”
“I’ve only been able to make rudimentary repairs for now,” LaLinde said. “They’ve stabilized, but they’re going to need quite a bit of work as soon as we have the chance.”
Lifting his head, Guts Man said, “Sorry Roll...we weren’t as prepared to deal with the guy as we thought…”
“I know you tried your best,” Roll said. “Thank you, all of you. Leave the rest to me.”
“Roll,” Fire Man said. “If you face that fiend Break Man, be wary! He has the ability to switch between a myriad of weapons, much as you do!”
“...I see. Thanks, I’ll be careful.” She finally looked to Elec Man, easily the worst-damaged of the three: his back had been blown open, revealing his inner circuitry, which LaLinde was carefully removing shrapnel from. “I can’t believe he’d go so far…are you awake, Elec Man?”
“I am,” he said quietly. “...It’s strange. In a way, I’m actually a little relieved to know I’m not all that powerful after all. But, until Rock is saved, I suppose that’s an awful way to think, isn’t it?”
Roll shook her head. “Not at all. I will save him. There’s nothing wrong with thinking ahead.”
Elec Man chuckled. Roll then made her way over to where Light worked, waiting patiently until he acknowledged her.
“This is all my fault,” Light said.
“Dr. Light…”
“If I hadn’t let myself be fooled so easily, Rock would still be safe. Now Wily has him, and Gamma, and…” He trailed off.
Roll hesitated. “Dr. Light...about Break Man…”
Light’s hands paused between keys. “Originally, his name was Blues. DLN-000, Blues. He was the first prototype Robot Master I designed, with help from Noelle. In almost every way, he was a resounding success...however, his power core had a flaw that caused it to degrade over time. I revised the design and planned to repair him, but when I went to do so, he had vanished without a trace. It was only after that that we constructed you, Rock, and Tempo.”
Roll remained where she was, quietly absorbing all of this.
Light turned to look her in the eyes. “I’m sorry if it seems like I was hiding this from you. With his core in such a state, I thought Blues would have gone inactive long ago...I didn’t want to burden you with the idea of a brother you would never be able to meet. And I…” He sighed. “I thought it was best to grieve and move forward. If only I’d known…”
Light returned to his work. Roll said, “But, I don’t understand. How is he still active? Why is he working with Wily? And the things he was saying on the moon…”
“I’m afraid I don’t have those answers. The only one who does is Blues himself.” A window appeared on-screen, prompting a grunt from Light. “Darn...I’m afraid it’ll take me a little longer to restore the transporter. If you’re going after Rock, you should recharge while you can.”
Roll nodded. “Alright. I promise I’ll get Rock back...and Blues, too.”
Light stopped abruptly. He smiled, but it quickly turned into a tired frown. “I hope so, Roll...I certainly hope.”
***
A handful of flickering lights did what they could to illuminate the lab, or rather the layer of dust that had settled over it. Rock sat in a cage nestled in the corner of the room, and not far away, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, was Break Man. The distant sound of machinery was all that filled the air, until Rock finally looked up and stared at Break Man.
“Why did Dr. Light call you ‘Blues’?”
Break Man grunted. “That’s the name he gave me. I don’t use it anymore.”
“So Dr. Light built you. Why are you working for Dr. Wily, then? He doesn’t care about robots--”
“You think Light does?” Break Man turned to meet his gaze. “Sure he acts like it. But once you’re not of use to him anymore, he’ll reprogram you without a second thought. Just like he tried to do to me.”
Rock blinked. “...What?”
Break Man looked away. “He decided I was defective, so he tried to reprogram me. Tried to destroy who I am and overwrite me with something he thought was more palatable. Seems like he wasted no time in replacing me. And now, he’s turned Roll from a lab assistant into a war machine…”
“Being weaponized was Roll’s idea. Dr. Light was against it--he only went through with it because there was no other option.”
Break Man scoffed.
“And when Dr. LaLinde removed Tempo’s emotions, he was against that too. Dr. Light cares about all robots, he would never--”
“For all you know, those memories might not even be real!” Break Man shouted, turning suddenly. “What proof do you have that he didn’t reprogram you too?”
Rock thought for a moment, and then said, “I guess...I just trust him.”
Break Man threw his hands up.
“If you really think Dr. Light would do that to you...I’m sorry. But there must be some kind of misunderstanding. I’m sure if you just talk to him--”
“I have nothing to say to him!”
“But you’ll talk to Wily? Wily does reprogram robots!”
Break Man averted his gaze, quietly replying, “I...have my reasons.”
“So you hate doctors who reprogram robots, except for Wily? How does that make sense?”
“He didn’t reprogram me!”
Rock gritted his teeth. “Is that it? Then why were you acting so worried about me and Roll?”
Break Man said nothing. A screen on a nearby console flared to life, and Wily’s voice came from it: “Break Man! How is our guest doing?”
“...Fine,” Break Man said.
“Good! Roll should be arriving soon, and we want to keep him in good condition to get those Energy Elements back! Neheheh...Gamma’s already so wonderfully powerful! I can’t even picture it with thrice the energy!”
Break Man glanced at Rock. He took a step towards the console, but before he could say anything, red light flooded the room to the sound of a blaring alarm.
“Ah, that must be her! I’ll have the others get the door--you just sit tight for the moment. It won’t be long now until we take our revenge on Light, nehehahahahaha!”
***
An imposing castle in the shape of a skull towered above Roll and Rush, flanked by smaller warehouses and radio dishes that formed a tight grip around it. Several mass-produced robots had tried to fend her off, but she had not allowed them to even slow her down as she stormed towards the gate and broke it open with a Hard Knuckle.
“Wily!” Roll shouted, her voice echoing off the walls of the dim entrance hall. “I’m here for my brothers!”
She ducked, only narrowly avoiding a thin boomerang as it cut through the air. Standing in the center of the room was a Robot Master with bright red armor, a golden crest decorating his helmet and similarly-shaped spikes jutting off from his arms. Grinning, he said, “Took you long enough. I could’ve gotten here in a fraction of the time!”
Roll aimed her buster. “Where’s Rock? Where’s Blues?”
“Hey now, don’t be rude! The name’s Quick Man, and I’ll have your full attention!”
Roll fired a warning shot. Quick Man darted out of the way, closing the distance in the blink of an eye. He sent Roll sprawling with a punch, and then leapt back, folding his arms and chuckling to himself. Rush chased after him, but he backed away just fast enough to remain out of the dog’s reach.
“I don’t have time for this,” Roll said as she picked herself up. “Please just let me through!”
“Tch! You don’t seem to understand the position you’re in.”
Quick Man hopped over Rush and dashed at Roll. She fired a charge shot, making him veer off-course, and followed immediately with a Magnet Missile, the homing projectile very nearly finding its mark. Roll stayed on her feet as Quick Man hit her again, managing to fire a Gemini Laser into the room. Distracted, Quick Man was knocked back towards Rush, who tripped the robot and pinned him to the floor. He swiftly pushed the dog back and began hurling boomerangs at Roll, until the Gemini Laser struck him in the back and stunned him. Roll prepared to launch a Hard Knuckle. The next thing she knew, however, pain was flaring in her side, and she fumbled, missing her shot. Quick Man raised a glare, but it wasn’t directed at Roll.
“Idiot!” he said. “I told you I’d handle her!”
Roll looked over her shoulder to see another Robot Master standing there, one with blue armor and a dome of yellow glass atop his head. Shrugging one shoulder, he said, “You weren’t doing a particularly good job of it.”
“Just go, Flash Man! I’m more than enough!”
Roll fired at Flash Man. Suddenly, he was standing a few feet to the side of where he had just been, and Roll realized she had taken damage again. Smiling at her, he said, “You’ll have to do better than that.”
Quick Man attacked her before she could try again. Leaping onto Rush’s back, she headed towards the hall’s ceiling, circling around while weaving between shots. “That ability’s going to be trouble...we need to deal with him, or we won’t get very far.”
First firing a Gemini Laser, Roll began dropping Search Snakes as she passed over her enemies, forcing them on the defensive. Both were fast enough to avoid the attacks, but it seemed Roll was successfully staying out of their range. She equipped Needle Cannon and waited until just after Flash Man moved--the spike made a direct hit, knocking Flash Man into a group of Search Snakes, and Roll grinned.
“Aren’t you forgetting someone?”
She turned to see Quick Man leaping at the wall, bouncing off of it with all his might to launch himself towards Roll. Knowing she wouldn’t have time to shoot him down, Roll switched to Top Spin instead, smacking Quick Man away the second he reached her and into the path of the Gemini Laser as he plummeted. Roll turned to find Flash Man, but realized she had lost track of him. Rush whimpered suddenly, veering towards the wall; below, Roll finally noticed Flash Man, weapon pointed directly up. Gently as she could, Roll pulled Rush out of his crash course and into a freefall.
“We have to get the jump on him,” she said. “Ready, boy?”
With a bark, Rush stuck his legs out and braced himself. Flash Man aimed for where he would land and waited. Unbeknownst to him, Rush’s parts began to shift, and when he hit the ground, the part of his back that Roll stood on sprang up, launching her high into the air. Roll saw a quick change in Flash Man’s demeanor and a scorch mark on the wall. She then threw a series of Shadow Blades, splitting open Flash Man’s dome and causing him to drop to the floor.
“B...Blast it!” Flash Man said. “I won’t…”
Sparks burst from his head as he tried to use his weapon again. He returned to the floor, and this time did not get up. Roll copied his weapon and went to Rush’s side, making sure the dog was okay, before being struck in the shoulder by one of Quick Man’s boomerangs. She whirled on him, but stopped when she saw the state he was in: his breathing was labored, his eyes were flickering, and he seemed barely able to stay on his feet.
“What’s wrong?” Roll asked. “You can’t have taken that much damage.”
“Shut up!” Quick Man said. “I’m still in great shape!”
He rushed straight at her. Roll surprised him with a Spark Shock, bringing him to an abrupt halt, and said, “Just stop it! If we keep fighting, you’re just going to get yourself hurt!”
Quick Man just sneered at her. He prepared to charge again, and with a sigh, Roll fired a Hard Knuckle, stopping him for good. Copying his data, she ran across the room and into the narrow hallway beyond. Ascending a staircase, she found herself in a chamber with several generators connected by a web of cables, and instantly the door on the other end opened on its own. In stepped a Robot Master with thick orange armor, arms ending in drills rather than hands.
“Wow, you managed to get this far already?” he said. “I’m impressed! But your little raid ends here!”
He fired a projectile with a blinking orb on one end as he charged. Roll evaded, saying, “I don’t want to fight! Just tell me where Rock is and--”
The projectile exploded behind her. Now upon her, the robot began to swing wildly, Roll just barely able to avoid his strikes. Rush headbutted him in the side, disrupting his balance, and Roll repelled him with Top Spin, running past him for the exit. Before she could reach it, however, a wall of fire sprang into being, blocking the path. Out from behind a generator emerged a robot whose body was encased in a box-like shell of yellow armor, eyeing Roll warily.
“So that’s where you ran off to, Heat Man!” said the Robot Master that had attacked her first. “Could’ve said something sooner!”
“Like you gave me a chance, Crash Man! You just rushed in headlong like always.”
“Aw, whatever. Let’s just do our job, huh?”
They both advanced. Roll decided to try out the Time Stopper, but it had no effect on her foes. Dodging flames and bombs, Roll and Rush moved from the flame wall to the side of the room to have more space, though their opponents remained right on their heels. Using Rush’s spring, Roll launched herself back at the other robots, knocking them both flat with a single Top Spin. The flames died down slightly, so Roll took aim at Heat Man again. Crash Man suddenly tackled her, knocking her aside and planting one of his bombs on her arm. Roll tried futilely to remove it, and Crash Man just laughed.
“Let’s see how durable you are!” he said.
Thinking fast, Roll pointed her fist and activated Hard Knuckle. Her limb detached, carrying the bomb with it; Crash Man was able to doge, but Heat Man, taken by surprise, was only able to close the lid of his armor as the bomb exploded in his face. The blast knocked her arm off its return course, so Roll ran forward to grab it but was intercepted by a kick from Crash Man.
“Well...not bad. But I doubt you can keep it up for long!”
Roll forced him back with a Gemini Laser. Rush scooped up her arm and brought it to her, allowing her to reattach it as she examined the flame wall again, now little more than embers around the doorframe. Back on his feet, Heat Man said, “Why you…! That does it!”
Flames enveloped his whole body. With a sudden burst of speed, Heat Man rocketed forward, colliding with Roll and launching her straight through the door. Crash Man nullified the Gemini Laser with one of his bombs, and then said, “Heh, I’m the one who charges in headlong?”
“W-Well...she made me mad!”
Crash Man laughed. After waiting a moment, he said, “Hey...is she...coming back?”
Heat Man blinked. The two of them ran forward, chasing Roll through the next hallway to an open area with a catwalk suspended over a churning pool of water. Just as she was reaching for a ladder, one of Crash Man’s bombs burrowed into her arm.
“Not so fast!”
Roll spun and equipped Hard Knuckle again. When she attempted to fire, however, she realized that the weapon had run out of energy. Her eyes widened as the bomb went off. The blast knocked her off the catwalk and into the water below, though thankfully it wasn’t as deep as it had initially appeared.
How did I use up Hard Knuckle so quickly? I should have plenty more uses left…
Another bomb shot through the water. Roll got as far away from it as she could. She looked for a way to climb out, but then she noticed a form swimming straight at her. Just able to throw herself clear, Roll got a good look at the robot that passed her: his armor was green, with fins on his feet and an apparatus like a diving mask covering his face. He turned around quickly, firing a buster shot at Roll as she tried to balance herself in the water. She retaliated, missing, and then the robot launched a large bubble at her, forcing her to kick off the ground and push herself out of the way. Unable to redirect herself, she braced for her foe’s next attack. At that moment, Rush came shooting through the water in his rocket form, knocking back the enemy robot before circling back to bring Roll to the surface.
“Thanks boy,” she said. “I’ve gotta be more careful.”
“See?” Crash Man said, gesturing towards her. “I knew Bubble Man wouldn’t be able to take her out.”
The aquatic robot poked his head out of the water, saying, “Hey, I’m not done yet! And it’s not like you’re doing any better!”
As they argued, Roll quickly checked how much energy her weapons had remaining, not wanting to run out by surprise again. Glancing over the list, she thought, They’re all lower than usual. Is something wrong with the Variable Weapons System? I guess it’s never been used on this many weapons before...maybe past a certain limit, it has less space to devote to each individual energy store?
Heat Man, apparently the only one still paying attention, lobbed a fireball at Roll. Flying out of the way, she fired her buster as she observed her foes, deciding to save her special weapons until an opening presented itself. The crossfire went on too long for Crash Man’s taste: charging suddenly, he leapt off the catwalk straight at Roll. She dodged the bombs he fired, equipped Top Spin, and kicked him into the water, narrowly missing Bubble Man in the process. Landing on the platform, she took aim at Heat Man.
“Ah, great,” Heat Man grumbled. “Well, don’t think I’ll make it easy for you!”
Flames surrounded him again as he charged forward. Roll flipped overhead and threw a Shadow Blade as Heat Man’s dash ended, then another as she landed to stun him out of making another attack. However, she ran out of energy for the weapon, and the time it took to switch gave the angered Robot Master time to barrel forward in a bright blaze. Roll slid out of the way, and Heat Man collided with the railing of the catwalk, tearing through it and ending up in open air.
“Uh-oh…!”
Roll ran towards the edge, but by the time she got there Heat Man had already hit the water. A small explosion of steam went up as his body disappeared. Seconds later, a Crash Bomb shot up out of the water, Roll just barely able to stumble back in time. She picked herself up and ran for the exit, but Bubble Man shot out of the water to intercept her, using one of his bubbles to knock her into the water as well.
“There you are!” Crash Man said, swinging around to face Roll as she floated towards the bottom. “Enough playing around!”
Rush tried to rescue Roll again, but this time Bubble Man was able to hold him off. Roll twisted around Crash Man’s attack as best she could, and then rammed her buster into the side of his head, unleashing a charge shot on contact and sending him spinning away. As she shot Bubble Man back, she noticed the deactivated body of Heat Man nearby; figuring getting a new weapon was the best way to refill her ammunition at the moment, she copied his data and then turned to keep an eye on Crash Man. More bombs came her way, which she easily wove between to return fire with Quick Boomerangs. Bubble Man tried launching a surprise attack, but Rush alerted Roll, and she stopped him short with a Spark Shock. With a shout, Crash Man lunged forward as fast as he could. Seeing an easy opening, Roll ducked, thrust her buster out, and delivered a burst of Atomic Fire directly into Crash Man’s chest to finish him off.
“Urgh...this ain’t looking good…” Bubble Man said, keeping his distance as Roll copied the Crash Bomb.
“Then just let me through,” Roll said. “I don’t have any interest in fighting you! This--”
She cried out as a circular saw blade cut through the water, slicing across her shoulder. Firing two Magnet Missiles out of the water, she leapt onto Rush and made for the surface, keeping a close eye on Bubble Man as she went. Waiting above was a Robot Master with red and yellow armor, accented by a splash of blue and saw-like spikes on his shoulders and helmet.
“Let me pass!”
Drawing another saw, the other robot said, “Don’t think so.”
Roll waited until the last second to dart to the side. At the same time, Bubble Man again leapt from the water in an attempt to surprise her, ultimately crashing to the catwalk as the saw cut straight through him. Wincing, Roll stopped briefly to copy his weapon before returning her attention to the newcomer. She used a Crash Bomb to drive him back into the hall and give herself some cover, and then fired her last Gemini Laser into the confined space to further restrict her foe’s movements. Crouching low, Roll then commanded Rush to charge, and they rammed right into the robot and carried him down the length of the hallway into the next chamber. The walls here were an eerie purple, and conveyor belts and pulleys ran across the room in every direction. Waiting in its center were two Robot Masters: one that appeared to be made of wood, and one with a large blue body with a giant fan rotor built into his chest. The latter unleashed a gust of wind the moment he saw Roll, blowing her off-course before she could get too close.
“Hmhm, well done, Metal Man,” he said. “I knew you’d let us down.”
The robot Roll had carried in with her sat up and rubbed his head, saying, “Keep quiet for once, Air Man. Wood Man, can I get some backup?”
The wooden contraption beat his chest. “Of course! We’ll give it our all to stop her here!”
A dozen or so leaves suddenly materialized in the room, slowly going from ceiling to floor, while Metal Man leapt onto a conveyor belt and resumed flinging his blades. Roll took evasive action as she tried to spot a path through them. However, Air Man began to spin his propeller, and the leaves were all pushed directly towards Roll, leaving tiny cuts all over her armor. As she struggled to recover, one of Metal Man’s saws clipped her leg, making her falter long enough for Air Man to summon a small whirlwind that hurled her into the wall. She slid to the floor, dazed until another saw cut her shoulder.
Alright...I don’t have any choice but to fight. I’ve got to focus, or they’ll destroy me.
She slid to the side to avoid another leaf-filled gust. Unleashing all her remaining Search Snakes and Quick Boomerangs, Roll leapt onto Rush and flew into battle. Air Man focused on sweeping away the snakes while Metal Man leapt from one belt to another to dodge boomerangs, so she focused buster fire on Wood Man. Leaves circled around him, blocking her shots. She tried to hit Air Man with a Spark Shock while he was distracted, but Wood Man leapt in the way, the electricity doing nothing against his wooden shell. Banking hard to avoid Air Man’s retaliation, Roll aimed for Metal Man and fired her final Magnet Missile just as he attacked her. Metal Man was carried into the projectile by the conveyor belt he stood on, meanwhile Roll was able to avoid the blade and turned back to Wood Man. He summoned his shield again when he saw her taking aim, but the Needle Cannon pierced straight through his guard, burying itself deep in his armor. Air Man was quick to counter, knocking Roll off of Rush and back towards Metal Man.
“Have to admit, you’re a handful,” Metal Man said. “But I’ll cut you down just the same!”
Roll slid as fast as she could to dodge the blades being thrown at her, not sure how much more damage she could sustain. Gradually, she closed the distance between her and her enemy, almost getting hit numerous times by Wood Man and Air Man’s support attacks and ordering Rush to keep his distance for now. When she got too close, Metal Man jumped--and Roll stuck a Crash Bomb to the floor right where he would land, the explosion ripping his body apart. After taking the Metal Blade for her own, Roll rejoined with Rush and circled towards the remaining two opponents.
“Darn...this is bad,” Wood Man said quietly.
Air Man rolled his eyes. “You can always quit if you’re too afraid.”
“I didn’t say anything about quitting!”
Roll equipped Bubble Lead as she dodged incoming fire, sending the projectiles across the floor ahead of her. Both her foes were easily able to pop the bubbles before they reached them, but it did distract them just long enough for Roll to empty her remaining Needle Cannon shots into Wood Man. Air Man did his best to force her back, but the Metal Blade was able to slice through the gale he summoned, causing him to recoil. Leaves filled the chamber; Roll burned her way through them with the Atomic Fire, then used Bubble Lead again to make Wood Man use his shield. She dug a Metal Blade into the ground to keep from being blown away by Air Man, and before Wood Man got another chance to act, she unleashed a torrent of flame upon him, near-instantly incinerating the robot until only his scant few metallic components remained.
“Well...this is unexpected,” Air Man said as Roll grabbed onto Wood Man’s remains. “Seems it truly is all down to me.”
“You can walk away,” Roll said. “Please, I’ve had enough of fighting…”
“Hmhm, yes, I’m sure you have. I’d rather defeat you at your best, but I will defeat you just the same.”
Roll activated the Leaf Shield, the barrier somehow able to repel Air Man’s next gust. She quickly switched to Metal Blade, but despite being so bulky, Air Man was able to avoid the saws and send Roll flying with a whirlwind.
Stay focused, Roll thought, rolling as she hit the ground and coming up in a crouch. I have one Spark Shock left. Metal Blade seems pretty efficient so I can probably still get a few uses out of that. Time Stopper probably won’t work on him either, and Leaf Shield...too soon to tell. I really hope he’s the last one…
Roll fired her buster as she advanced. Air Man deflected her shots with whirlwinds before trying to make a counterattack. Roll slid clear, only letting up as long as she had to. As Air Man once again moved to attack, Rush leapt at him from behind, holding in his teeth one of the Metal Blades Roll had thrown earlier and using it to slash at Air Man’s back. The Robot Master spun on him, and Roll seized the opportunity: she used Spark Shock to electrocute Air Man, and managed to land one more Metal Blade before Air Man knocked Rush away.
“Rush!”
“Worry about yourself!”
Roll put up a Leaf Shield as Air Man unleashed all the wind he could muster. Even with its protection, she could feel herself being pushed back, so she put her arms forward out of instinct. As she did, the leaves encircling her broke formation and dashed forward, cutting their way through the wind and into Air Man’s propeller. Air Man’s eyes widened as his blades ground to a halt.
“Ngh...curses…”
Roll didn’t waste her chance. She used up Metal Blade to wear Air Man down, and when he finally managed a counterattack, she blocked with Leaf Shield before sending it slicing through him again. Air Man tried desperately to get his propeller moving, but eventually his mechanisms couldn’t take the stress, and the fan blades burst from him in a cloud of smoke. Roll held firm until Air Man stopped moving completely, and then dropped onto all fours and sighed heavily. She stared at the floor, shaking, unable for the longest time to say even a single word.
“...It’s...too much…”
Rush gently nudged her. She looked up, the dog licking her face; he then opened the compartment on his back to reveal two tanks--one labeled with an “E”, the other with a “W”.
“...Right. I have to keep going.” She scratched Rush’s ear, smiling just a little. “Thanks, boy. It helps that I don’t have to do this alone.”
She got to her feet and drank both tanks. Then, she copied Air Man’s weapon, faced the corridor ahead, and ran forward.
Rock...Blues...I’m almost there.

Pillar Men Zodiacs
So I was driving around and I had a thought... the pillar men don’t have clear cut birthdays but have clear personalities, and the fan community has plenty of room to work with in developing their characters further. As one of my weird hobbies and latest interest in JJBA, its time to look at horoscopes!
So after leafing through my books, friends, and websites, I’ve got a few guesses as to who may be who in regards to zodiac signs:
!!!!MINOR SPOILER WARNING FOR JJBA PART 2!!!!!!
Wamuu:
Wamuu is most likely a Taurus: He is not a violent creature by nature, although it is stated and shown Wamuu does enjoy a good honorable fight any time of day he has standards (and the fact he’s technically a vampire so he is a violent creature in that sense). He is not a mindless killer, always thinking his way through battles and planning out the next moves, this can also be assumed that he analyzes everything rationally and quickly in high-pressure situations. Showing level-headedness as a staple of his character.
Emotions are not a personal weakness for him if anything it is his code of honor that dictates his actions. As such, he is reliable in his actions and will only do as much effort as necessary to carry it out. For him, there is no need for embellishment or grand spectacles. At the same time, this same code creates a sense of absolute loyalty to both Kars and Esidisi. He has shown to be largely obedient and even offers to punish himself after minoring transgressing either of the other two. The refusal to break his own code of honor shows stubbornness and consistency in addition to his aforementioned level-headedness.
I would argue that Wamuu is the ‘kindest’ of the pillar men due to his code. Again, killing is not something he enjoys as victory is what matters to him most and his pride is largely based on the victories he’s gained through abiding by the said code of honor. This is because to him, victories do not always have to result in death, and those he knows he could easily defeat are spared without a second thought. His practicality comes into play here as well in the sense of ‘Only take what you need to get the job done’, this is most apparent to me when he battles Joseph for the first time.
Santana:
Santana is most likely a Gemini: We didn't get to see much of this boi during the anime or much in the manga, on top of that he doesn't really talk that much. All we can discern from background commentary is that he is a man of few words, has the ability to analyze like his adopted brother, but has a very different approach to battle. Kars compares Santana to a dog when talking about his own fighting power, so it's fair to assume that perhaps Santana did not develop himself as much as he could in fighting and have and spent his time honing other skills.
Perhaps his analytical skills specialized in observation. Living for thousands of years and seeing the world with three people who are focused on a single goal is a good environment to create a deviant personality within the group. Maybe while his family was off looking for the red stone, he decided to/ended up staying behind. In doing so he watched the world around him and had a silent but deep interest in what things were and how they worked. In addition to his ability to grasp complex concepts both literal (the physical composition of a machine gun) and the conceptual (a whole new language), I feel his own powers of contortion and body entering contribute to this theory. These powers literally involve the desire to learn deeply (contort himself into other creatures or environments) and his willingness/expertise of being able to adapt to a new environment and master it (new bodies that he takes control of).
Personality wise from what I can gather, being a man of and the willingness to learn involves a sense of passivity and gentleness. Not every situation involves needing to charge mindlessly, however, once Santana understands something he wastes no time in putting his full energy into mastering it to make it his own. The active nature, the hasty nature of his actions, combined with his passive nature, the assumed background of his ability to learn and observe in silence, are the most obvious traits I've noticed that make me conclude he is a Gemini.
Esidisi:
Esidisi is either a Cancer or a Libra: Esidisi is the only pillar man I had a difficult time assigning in the zodiac. We do not see nearly as much of him as Wamuu or Kars, but we see more of him than we see Santana. It goes without saying that he is the most emotional and expressive of the group, but beyond that, the only other things we see from him are his abilities to play mind games on a near equal level that Joseph displays (maybe that’s why his brain was something that was able to survive after the fight between the two?). His ability to have a wild mind on par with a Joestar shows creativity and an ability to be persuasive. These are points for him being a Cancer. However, these factors go hand in hand with diplomacy and show a sense of emotional intelligence, which are points for him possibly being a Libra.
In truth, half of the reasons I placed Esidisi where he is is because of two specific lines in the anime: when the anime recounts the history of the pillar men and Kars’ place in creating the stone mask Esidisi is referred to as “His sole ally.” When we look at what kind of person Kars is we see that it takes someone who is able to have not only a sense of passion that is equal to his towards either Kars’ ideals or Kars’ himself but also a sense of sympathy and understanding, points for being a Cancer and a Libra respectively. We also hear Kars speak “I am no warrior, nor am I a romantic.” when Wamuu was killed, it is safe to assume that the word ‘romantic’ referred to Esidisi yet again. This word is used far more often to describe Libras than Cancers, but romance could also refer to his tendency to be more in touch with his emotions and have them play an active role in his battle methods and overall behavior.
Being a Libra myself, I can vouch for being indecisive. This is one of the most common traits that I do not see in Esidisi, considering he’s been with the same man for thousands of years and having his eyes focused only on one goal. But you could argue that this could be because of a passion he has for Kars or his ambitions, which makes it a toss-up between the two signs. When it comes to the weakness of these two zodiac signs, Esidisi fits both the Cancer and Libra profile. As the emotional one who has no doubt had a few bad days and from his outburst shows evidence of moodiness and pessimism (cancer traits). But self-pity, the literal root of the whole arm tantrum, is more than apparent. While Libras often tend to avoid confrontation, Esidisi is the one who goes out of his way to confront Joseph and get the stone. Overall due to his character being steeped in emotion and his own powers, fire literally symbolizing passion and emotion, he could go either way. I had the most fun analyzing him because he has the most to unpack.
Kars:
Kars is a Virgo: This is the only one that I am truly decisive on because.... if you've seen the show, Kars’ nature is one of the most Virgo moods I have ever seen in my ding dang life.
Where do I even start? Of course his obvious physical appearance, look I know all the pillar men have this attribute but holy fuck does it really shine when Kars takes the stage when he fights Lisa-Lisa and he lets his hair down. Luxurious and meticulously dressed to appear simple while delivering a message of his own personal view; that at the end of the day he is a god among those that walk on earth. That he was the one who chose to take those first steps towards achieving greatness for himself and those who followed him. His appearance is very much in line with the symbol of the Virgo itself, with his own beauty being on par with his zodiac.
Throughout the entire series, we see him have tunnel vision towards a single goal, to obtain the red stone of Aja. He even had to remind his companions of their main goal more than a few times when either Wamuu or Esidisi got distracted. He stays grounded in the world and environment that surrounds them at that moment, appealing to the practical nature of Virgo. In addition, when it is time to act his analytical skills and intelligence are on full display. Able to use people, objects, and tools for his own accord under high-pressure situations to ensure victory is achieved. Taking account for every little detail to ensure perfection is a trademark of Kars’ sign. Plus at times when I was watching him, I couldn’t help but think of a few of Jenna Marbles’ moments that would fit him perfectly.
A competent Virgo as an antagonist for any series spells trouble, but even meticulous Aztec vampires have their shortcomings. When I think about Kars in the series, as well as Esidisi, I almost always think about the fact he was a parent for thousands of years to two children who (assumedly) have never really left his side. So parenting methods and the outcome of both Wamuu and Santana are where I see the negative traits of the Virgo sign are most apparent. For example, a few of the negative traits of this sign are that they are overly-critical, fussy, harsh, and conservative in their methods. If you look at how Wamuu turned out as a fully grown developed adult, you will notice that he is extremely critical of his own behavior and carries a conservative nature when it comes to interacting with humans, I feel this sort of behavior had to be taught in a child. Maybe these tactics did not work that well on Santana, but whos to say what the actual psychology is of pillar men? Either way, in my opinion, I think harsh and strict methods must have been used at first to keep his family together and in line over the course of their thousand-year journey. That takes dedication, careful planning, and intensive organizational skills.
And that's it!! That's the train of thought I had in the past week. This was only for fun and none of this is canon, as far as I know, I hope you got some amusement from this!

An O.C. for Your Asses!!!
I wanna see if the characters are legit before I move forward with this short story im working on (I'm a character first kinda guy, so I work inside-out) leave any form of constructive critique you wish, they are still works in progress, thanks!!
Augustine Harriet Andersson
Age:22
Sign: Gemini (sun) Cancer (moon) Virgo (rising)
Height: 5'8
Eye Color: Formerly dark-brown, bleached to a pastel-hazel because of some dark magic fuckery
Hair Color/Cut: dark-brown,q shifting variations of a fade, whose design changes somewhat based on his thoughts and emotions (yes, this is an enchanted fade)
Build: lean, lightly muscled from years lifting cauldrons in his grandfather's potion shop
Notable Features: Dimples; left-dimple is deeper than right, multiple piercings on each ear, artificial left eye (looks organic but to magical eyes, it looks otherwise)
"Have you ever been like...fundamentally angry? I feel that way...like at my core, there's this rage that seethes and coils at the pit of my stomach, everyday, like a python that can't quite squeeze his prey all the way to death. Everytime I think I've grown up, forgiven something or someone or myself, there's this anger that tightens right back up all over again...like it's reminding me of something. Somedays...I feel like that feeling will petrify everything I've ever loved about myself, and I'll just be another slave to outrage and ego and pain...just like everyone else...haha, then I'll really be a normie." -August Andersson, on his depression and internal anger issues.
Augustine Andersson is a witch-boy. But you could probably already tell that from looking at him: the way his eyes are almost constantly fixed towards some unseeable infinity, the way air molecules hum with fresh, manic energy around him, how he seems to absorb sunlight and the way his brown skin would filter the glow as a result of his connection to the natural...it was all very off putting to others around him for most of his young adult life. And as we all know, no one likes a freak, so such years had a hand in building his current trust issues, feelings of great anger and inadequacy, and all the tics and tricks he uses to keep such feelings at bay. He's not at a total loss; at his core he is a humanitarian, deeply compassionate and available to those who have managed to capture his heart, as well as wild and humorous. However, he keeps a tight lid on his darkest feelings and insecurities, out of fear that they may be too much for those around him (also, he might accidentally call forth a vile arch-daemon on accident, but that's neither here nor there.) After finally having had enough of his mundane time amongst the humans, he vanishes from his college campus one day and takes to the open road, hoping that like the many young, angsty teens in the movies he loves, he will find himself in his own solitude. But the best way to deal with oneself is when confronting someone else, and after a close-call with a reckless (and very cute) motorcycle rider on an interstate, August will be forced to deal with every single part of himself, the good, the bad, and the strange...
A few more things about him...
1. His father is Afro-swedish, hence his last name.
2. Loves to travel and is nomadic by nature.
3. He gets a special kind of warmth out of being moderately petty at all times.
4. He loves open spaces and bodies of water, as well as hikes through mountains (ok so he only went once in Vegas, so sue him, he really liked it!)
5. Surprisingly low maintenance, really just likes being around people that are happy, and the feeling easily rubs off on him.
6. Both positive and negative emotions easily rub off on him.
7. Can get caught up in moments of warm content, given his unstable interior life, and can get lost in wasting/spending time.
8. Gets restless easily.
9. Budding film buff, faves include Kill Bill vol. 1&2, Her, Moonrise Kingdom, Gone Girl, Blue is the Warmest Color, Moonlight, & Mean Girls.
10. August's father is very engaged with politics and civil rights, so in honor of that, he decided that his son's middle name would belong to one of the greatest figures of the civil rights movement: Harriet Tubman.
11. Favorite new movie is The Favourite.
12. Due to a lack of acceptance of his full self and the full spectrum of his sexuality, he is judgemental of others and holds them to the same near-impossible standards he holds for himself.
13. Things he expects from others: To read his mind and conjure what he wants without saying, to have his needs and boundaries respected without actually stating so, for others to fit in whatever box he thinks they should be in, for everyone's intellect to be slightly lower than his own, but high enough not to annoy him with silly questions, ect.
14. Listens to Lorde, J. Cole, Rex Orange County, Frank Ocean, Lana Del Rey, Tyler the Creator, Young Thug and assorted film soundtracks.
15. Enjoys playing into his double-sided nature when it suits him, and has a secret glee in melding into different roles depending on who's around him.
16. Is attracted to more eccentric personalities in platonic and romantic relationships
17. Smokes weed to escape boredom. (and his problems)
18. Smokes weed because he likes the feeling.
19. Is secretly a little ratchet, but he'll kill you if you say so, it'll fuck up his reputation as the quasi-sociopathic erudite.
Magic House-Thoth
Augustine is a member of the Sacred House of Life, witches whose magic is passed down from the Egyptian Gods themselves. August himself is a descendant of an African slave-witch, once known as Ashe. She was taken to Egypt as a typical piece of cargo from zealot raiders, and was sentenced to a life of building the pyramids. Or so she would have thought: Thoth, the God of Magic and Knowledge, took pity upon her and beguiled her to follow an invisible force into the desert one night. He then revealed himself to her in his ibis-headed brilliance and bestowed upon her a set of choices: he could free her now and set her loose across the desert with all the things she would need for survival, or he could give her secrets and wisdoms unknown to man at the time, but she would have to frequently return to him for lessons. Ashe always prized knowledge and growth over any material thing, or even something such as freedom (I prefer to disagree myself). And secrets from a God must count for that much more, right? She indulged in option two. Thoth grinned and whispered to her the mysteries of life, the secrets of the stars, and the riddles of worlds lost and intangible, he spoke magick into her very soul. She would then use her newfound knowledge to fool her captors, freed any slave that would believe in her, and with her wits about them, guided them across the desert to build a library-like sanctuary, in honor of Thoth. The former slaves then learned from the god's teachings, passed through Ashe, and became witches and educators in their own right, and Ashe came to lead this new coven of magi. This is how the House of Thoth became to be.
Magick: As a member of house of Thoth, August has the ability to manipulate various aspects of the moon, writing, hieroglyphics, knowledge and sciences, and the progression of time. His particular specialty is the creation of Moon Dust, a substance used as a medium for most of his spells. By gathering various quantities of mineral, be it: crystal, rocks, pearls, aluminum, or even silvers and golds, he can channel his magic into them and break down and rearrange their atomic components into a corrosive, abrasive substance that also tends to stick to objects due to an electric charge. This dust is also dangerous to breathe in. He tends to carry around a pouch or two on his person, as trying to create some on the fly is nearly impossible given how much time and intricacy is needed to create the substance. (I mean, working with just a pile of plain old rocks would take a couple of hours to convert, let alone harder or more distilled substances.) Spells that he has mastered so far include...
Spell of Refraction: A spell in which the moondust bonds to whomever or whatever August desires (sans the harmful effects, it's enchanted in this state) and whatever is enveloped in dust turns invisible via light refraction.
Spell of Revelations: He can spread his moondust over an area and have the pieces cling to imprints of negative emotion or dark magick. A spell used for forensic work.
Spell of Retribution: An offensive spell that uses moondust to its fullest offensive powers and creates small funnels of dust to ravage the opponent. The largest funnel made could surround a fully grown man.
Golemancy: Can create golems out of the moon dust he has formed, usually no larger than a human toddler. They tend to take form roughly resembling lego-men (he was a big fan of the Lego Expanded Universe as a child), but one can easily be fooled by their size: each golem has the strength of three men, and can combine to further power themselves up.
There are a few spells that don't require the moon dust...
-The Veil: A surface-level illusion layered directly over the skin. This allows the caster to look like whatever he wants to look like and sound however he wants, but can be broken if struck with bad intentions (like a slap from an offended woman on the street)
-Somnus: A very old, yet practical spell. Also one that does not require moondust, this handy spell induces sleep. Those affected by this spell will not remember being forced to sleep, but they will have active and vivid dreams for distraction. Also necessary for Dream Diving.
-Dream Diving: A skill Augustine has yet to master, this allows the caster to astral project into one's consciousness for complete access to the afflicted parties mind, if the brain is distracted by dreams. August has gotten stuck in several public nude dreams, and it takes long hours to remove oneself from another's mind.
-Illusion Casting
-Temporary Madness Inducement
-Script Magick: By writing down a word or phrase on any surface that can be sufficiently marked on, whatever has been written manifests somehow, just so long as it is within his power. He can't create miracles with it though.

11/14/2018 Horoscope
Aries: It’s cold outside. You don’t want to go inside. The cold is burning your lungs and it’s something, and you drink to feel warm for a few moments, crisscrossing pains. You head inside eventually, you’re still avoiding Dea so you don’t want to freeze to death on your doorstep.
Taurus: Quand le monde a né, tu as vu il prend son premier souffle. Tu ne veux pas être compris, aujourd’hui. Tu te blesses.
Gemini: You pack up your accordion and a few changes of clothes, then hop in the car and drive out of the city with Frederick. You told him that you were going on a road trip. You tried to explain that something is fucky, tried to explain the holes in your head where memories should be, but it was like the snake completely lost any ability to comprehend you. You found yourself explaining it again and again, as he’d forget it every few minutes. You eventually said you wanted to go on a road trip and he remembered that. You don’t like lying, but you don’t think you have much of a choice this time. The walls beat once while you’re trying to explain to him, and once more hen you’re packing things into the car, then goes silent.
Cancer: You head home after a while of awkward talking about anything but the important things. You’re exhausted, and you’re cold, and you just want to get out of this dress and wash this make-up off.
Leo: You suddenly remember that this is the first busy season V has been in. You realize this as you watch him tire himself out too quickly in his performances several days in a row, leaving you and Fira to pick up the slack until he’s ready to go again. You might need to rethink your plan, or something.
Virgo: They chose to do what they did, you did not make them kill people, they chose to do that. But they chose to do it for you! And did you ask them to? No, but- No buts! She knows how you get, something bad happens and it has to be your fault somehow, so you start looking for ways to blame yourself. You didn’t hold a gun to their heads and force them to gather skulls for you, you didn’t even ask them to do so, they chose to out of their own free will, that is not on you.
Libra: You fall into a routine, and the days pass. You’re filled with a constant, low-burning anger at the mistreatment of your friends, of magicals.
Scorpio: It’s so quiet without them. I iss them. I really miss them.
Sagittarius: You’re still in the SPSG group chat. You never left it. You could talk, try to reconnect, end your own isolation. You watch the messages scroll by for a minute, they’re joking around without you, and you let the screen turn dark and your phone fall asleep. You don’t message them. You drop your phone to your chest and tilt your head back, resting it against the armrest of the couch, and close your eyes. You can already feel it. You aren’t going to sleep tonight. You’re hyper aware of the house around you.
Capricorn: You find a rest stop on the road. It’s a small gas station and a cheap fast-food restaurant. You forgot to pack money, not that you had any, but you head inside anyway, just to warm yourself up.
Aquarius: You start talking, force yourself to, really. These words aren’t going to come if you don’t force them out, not when you’ve already spoken more today than you’re used to speaking in a week. Maybe that was a disservice. Maybe you should have been trying to speak more, but you didn’t feel the need to. You say that you can barely remember the years, that the days blend into each other seamlessly, that you flat out didn’t remember even that much when you first starved it. Linda hums at you and you swallow a mouthful of tea. Mint.
Pisces: Your body feels heavy and your thoughts are slow, so you lay where you are for a while longer. You eventually recognize the children on you as Rose and Jacob, and that means you’re probably in the orphanage. You think you should get up, go figure out how you ended up here, maybe inform Pamina of where some of her charges disappeared to?, but there’s children on you that you’re loath to wake up and your body seems to respond a beat too late to whatever you command anyway. You can’t go back to sleep, you’ve slept too much in a short amount of time and this exhaustion is not physical, or at least, not purely physical. You need to move before you can sleep again. For now, you stare at the ceiling, entering a quiet, thoughtless sort of meditation.

Every Classic Mega Man Weapon Ranked, Part 2
To gamers who were young in the ancient 80's, game characters were iconic in a way that modern kids, with a veritable plethora of types of games to choose from, simply cannot fathom. We stomped on Goombas with the Super Mario Bros. We fought Ganon with our sword and our wits. We plumbed the depths of alien planets with a hard-bitten bounty hunter. We even occasionally played things that weren't made by Nintendo, like that one really fast guy from that one company. What was his name? Was it Speedy? Oh yeah! Good 'ole Speedy the Hedgehog. Even with all these iconic characters, one stood out for letting you do something no one else did: taking your enemy's weapon, and ripping them a new asshole with it. Mario didn't do that. Link didn't do that. Speedy certainly didn't do that. Capcom seems to have forgotten about the Blue Bomber lately, but on Monday they're going to announce...some Mega Man thing. We don't know what yet. Hopefully it's cool. Anyway, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original Mega Man, here's part two of my list ranking every Mega weapon in the classic series. You can find part 1 here: http://ryanmeft.tumblr.com/post/168077242247/every-classic-mega-man-weapon-ranked-part-1. And part 3 here: http://ryanmeft.tumblr.com/post/168173192902/every-classic-mega-man-weapon-ranked-part-3 And the last part: http://ryanmeft.tumblr.com/post/168197639092/every-classic-mega-man-weapon-ranked-part-4
53. Quick Boomerang (MM2) It's a boomerang. Just a boomerang. I used to like standing around firing them and watching them return to me, because I was 8, and stupid.
52. Flame Sword (MM8) It's exactly what it says it is. After years of shitting out seriously crappy melee weapons, this one...well, it wasn't especially useful, but it wasn't godawful, either. And wouldn't you know it? Just when Capcom seemed to be inching toward doing it right, they figured out it was kind of pointless to do at all. They could have tumbled to that back in 1990 and saved a lot of kids a lot of disappointment.
51. Yamato Spear (MM6) This one could be rapid fired, but it is otherwise just an arrowhead that you can shoot. "Yamato" is a word that means "Japan". Isn't it kind of really, really sad that this is the coolest thing a Japanese developer could think to give to a boss literally named Japan Man? 50. Concrete Shot (MM9) File this one under "cooler in theory than in practice". The ability to encase enemies in stone sounds cool (and slightly insane), but visually, all it really does is replace the enemy sprite with a rock.
49. Thunder Bolt (MM7) Almost every MM game has one or two weapons that are just filler---not offensively useless, but not odd enough to stand out, either. For Mega Man 7, this one filled that apparent need.
48. Bubble Lead (MM2) The original travel-along-the-floor weapon. How, exactly, does one make a bubble out of lead without breaking science? It was the only way to deal with lots of annoying ground enemies, though, so we'll forgive the bastardization of the laws of nature this once.
47. Wind Storm (MM6) Oh, sweet. We literally get to shoot a tornado and why is it tiny? Why is it just moving along the ground? Wind Storm is technically a tornado, but it's a little like the fact that a poodle is technically a dog; that still doesn't make it cool.
46. Needle Cannon (MM3) It fires big spikes. You can't get much more straight forward. Unless the enemy was weak against it, it wasn't very much fun, but it wasn't annoying, either.
45. Freeze Cracker (MM7) Seemingly unable to make an ice weapon that was actually cool, Dr. Wily settled for merely functional. This one is basically useful for shattering on walls to hit shielded enemies from behind, and you don't have to do that often enough for it to be awesome.
44. Blizzard Attack (MM6) Much like the Silver Tomahawk, this one has a rather incomprehensible flight path. It works fine if your aim is right, but it's just too easy for the odd pattern to miss.
43. Napalm Bomb (MM5) Imagine if some daycare mistook this for a bouncy toy.
42. Hornet Chaser (MM9) This one may make me think of a hive of bees nesting in Mega Man's chest, but it's still rather unfairly maligned. It isn't very powerful, but it's great for taking out small, annoying enemies, and sometimes it brings you presents. The only thing real hornets bring you is inexplicably dark endings to early 90's Macauley Culkin movies.
41. Flash Stopper (MM4) Capcom's to-date last experiment with halting the flow of time, and that's probably a good thing. This one allows Mega Man to still fire standard shots while time is stopped, but not to use any other weapons. That's an improvement, but the only way for this power to be as cool as it sounds is to allow you total freedom while it's active, and that's more power than any 'bot needs. Think of the children, or something.
40. Danger Wrap (MM7) Every now and then, Capcom comes up with something that is totally original, and so it was with this weapon, which wrapped up enemies in a bubble that then exploded. It was cool when it worked right, but it was so picky on which enemies would actually bubblesplode that it wasn't very useful.
39. Crystal Eye (MM5) Are you actually firing a robot's eye here? How does this work? Whatever. Ahem. This is basically the concept behind the Gemini Laser, but occasionally useful. It splits into four little ping pong balls, and chances are one of them will hit something.
38. Ring Boomerang (MM4) I'm not sure how a ring would return when thrown. I mean, it isn't special. It isn't the One Ring. It isn't even a diamond ring. It's just a hoop of gold. Maybe it's magnetized. Anyway, this one actually lays the smack down pretty hard when it hits. Short range, unfortunately, hampers its usefulness.
37. Shadow Blade (MM3) This was like Metal Blade, except you couldn't throw it in any direction, it had a limited range and it ate up more weapon energy. It was a Metal Blade that didn't work as well, which, you know, as pitches go, that's unique.
36. Knight Crusher (MM6) This is like the Rolling Cutter, but you can kind of aim it a little bit. Look, let's just call it what it is: Mega Man 6 really phoned it in. Most of the weapons weren't terrible, per se, but they were the textbook example of a developer who no longer cares. Sure, it's hard to blame them. The NES was basically dead by this point. It doesn't change the fact that "slightly better Rolling Cutter" is the best MM6 had to offer.
35. Leaf Shield (MM2) The original shield weapon was super useful, as long as you stood still. Somehow, though a shield made of flowers disappeared the moment someone farted in the general vicinity, one made of leaves did not. However, once you moved it flew away, and likely drifted harmlessly to the ground the moment it hit anything bigger than a politician's soul. Capcom would spend the rest of the series figuring out how to make a truly useful shield.
34. Search Snake (MM3) This one was nice for for getting those hard to reach enemies, but let's pause for a moment. Mega Man is shooting snakes out of his arm. Where are the snakes coming from? Is he generating them inside his gut? Is there a hatchery in there? To anyone about to explain to me that they are robot snakes I KNOW THAT IT IS CALLED HUMOR
33. Noise Crush (MM7) This one is powerful, but just...strange. Think on it. The technology to simply charge weapons directly is already in widespread use, and Wily decides it would be better if you had to do it via table tennis. Strange.
And that’s it for part 2 of the list, in which we went from the weapons that were just boring rather than actively useless to those that are fun to play around with but mostly too strange to hit your regular rotation. Next we’ll be dealing with the weapons that you actually go looking for in the pause screen, and in part 4 on Monday, the best weapons in Mega Man history!

RYLIE N CALDER LMAOO
(( * THE TWINS, RUNE CALDERSON & INGRID CALDERDöTTIR
“ they were two halves, of the same brain. “
(( * FREYJA DANIELLE BARTON
“ what was in our stars, which destined us for sorrow? “
(( * RUNE TROY CALDERSON // CLICK FOR MOODBOARD
“ the problem with being the rock, is no one asks if you’re starting to crumble. “
NAME:
[ RUNE ] — derived from the Old Norse word rún, meaning “secret”.
[ TROY ] — derived from a gaelic name meaning “foot soldier”. Named for Troy Banner, at the insistence of Rylie.
[ CALDERSON ] — meaning “son of Calder”
BIRTHDATE:
♊ GEMINI, JUNE 6TH ;; gemini’s are defined by their inconsistency - their personality is ever changing, and it’s difficult to know which side of them you may be greeted with on any given day. Typically very witty and well expressed people, capable of slotting into a variety of settings with ease and enthusiasm, they can, on the flip side, be quite indecisive and superficial.
GENDER:
(cis) Male
APPEARANCE:
[ HAIR ] — similar to Calder’s in its light brown color, Rune’s hair is far messier than his father’s, let grow far longer and then minimally styled.
[ EYES ] — a darker blue than Calder’s, but a feature gotten from him nonetheless.
[ HEIGHT ] — five foot eight inches
PERSONALITY:
+ BENEVOLENT ;; at his heart, Rune is a really good kid, without a bad bone in his body. He’s a gentle soul with a lot of love to give to friends and family, and everything he does is for them– his goodness makes him want to make the world a safer place for the people he care about to live in, hence why he was drawn to SHIELD in the first place. He finds it very difficult, though, to express himself, and often shows how much he cares through ways other than words.
- STOIC ;; much like his parents before him, Rune is incredibly good at being a rock, even in the face of hardship and cruelty. He feels things very deeply, but he’s very good at keeping those emotions far beneath the surface, and even better at keeping going regardless of how soul crushing those feelings may be. He keeps them to himself because as the eldest, he feels its his job to stay in control and keep a level head… and if he let himself indulge in some of the things he feels, every once in a while, then he really wouldn’t be able to do that.
+ HONORABLE ;; he was raised to be a good man, and he is. Rune values truth above all else, and he believes in doing the right thing, regardless of what it may cost him. His morals are sound, and when it comes to making a tough call, he does what’s right over what’s easy– it’s something that’s been instilled in him since childhood, and it’s made him into the man he is.
- DOGMATIC ;; often, however, it’s Rune’s way or the highway. As the oldest, he took it upon himself to be the leader– and this has carried with him throughout life. He takes charge, he makes the decisions, he knows whats right and he knows whats wrong, but it’s come with the high price of making him into someone who believes that what he feels or knows is correct, and anything on the contrary is wrong.
SPECIAL TALENTS:
THUNDER MANIPULATION ;; the twins powers seem like good descriptors for how they are as people. Ingrid is the lightning– she’s more into making a display, she seems more destructive– and he’s the quiet rumble in the distance, with the capability to do just as much damage. Rune and Ingrid were partnered up in the end, not because they were twins, but because their powers go hand in hand and it never seemed right to have one without the other.
WHO THEY LIKE BETTER:
CALDER. Of his parents, he’s the one less inclined to sit there questioning him. Rylie wants to know things– she wants to understand how he’s feeling and what he’s thinking, so she can help, but Rune doesn’t like to share those things, and all her probing does is makes him kind of resent her. But Calder is more like him, and never minds just sitting in silence– it’s something Rune appreciates.
WHO THEY TAKE AFTER MOST:
BOTH. Calder and Rylie are both quite similar, and Rune is a clear mix of the two.
PERSONAL HEADCANON(S):
See below.
FACE CLAIM:
Miles Heizer
(( * INGRID NATASHA CALDERDöTTIR // CLICK FOR MOODBOARD
“ and oh, they called her summer because she was only really appreciated when she was gone “
NAME:
[ INGRID ] — derived from the Old Norse name Ingríðr, meaning “Ing is beautiful”.
[ NATASHA ] — a russian baby name meaning “born at Christmas”. Named for Natasha Romanoff.
[ CALDERDöTTIR ] — meaning “daughter of Calder”
BIRTHDATE:
♊ GEMINI, JUNE 6TH ;; gemini’s are defined by their inconsistency - their personality is ever changing, and it’s difficult to know which side of them you may be greeted with on any given day. Typically very witty and well expressed people, capable of slotting into a variety of settings with ease and enthusiasm, they can, on the flip side, be quite indecisive and superficial.
GENDER:
(cis) Female
APPEARANCE:
[ HAIR ] — Ingrid, like Rune, has much lighter brown hair than Rylie, which falls below her shoulder line.
[ EYES ] — one of the few physical differences between them, aside from height, is their eyes - Ingrid’s are their mother’s green, opposed to Calder’s blue.
[ HEIGHT ] — five foot four inches
PERSONALITY:
+ DAUNTLESS ;; there’s really not much out there that can really put any sort of fear into her. Maybe it’s cause she’s the kid of two heroes, who’re also the kids of heroes. Maybe, it’s just cause that’s how she’s wired. But, ‘being scared’ isn’t really something that Ingrid’s familiar with.
- REACTIVE ;; there’s no thinking things through, for ingrid. She feels and reacts to things in the moment, but, though it’s always a flaw that has had disastrous consequences for her, she’s always been one to shrug and laugh it off afterwards. ‘Hindsight is a great thing,’ is pretty much her catchphrase, though understandably, neither of her parents find it all too amusing. For someone who also holds her loved ones above all else… being ready to throw herself in front of them come any sign of danger isn’t a great thing.
+ CONFIDENT ;; there’s no one more sure of herself and her abilities than ingrid, except, perhaps, her younger sister– but even then she’d tell you, she came first. She knows she’s pretty. She knows she’s smart. She knows that she can kill a man at least 10 different ways with a singular paperclip. She knows all these things, and, she kind of delights in them, to the point of even walking and talking with the air of someone who knows exactly what she’s doing, even when she doesn’t.
- STUBBORN ;; so too, is rune, but with ingrid, it’s something else completely. Nothing changes her mind. Nothing even makes a dent in her decision– if she’s decided to do something and made up her mind, it’s done, and there’s no point in hoping to get around her. She was like this even as a child, and, it got worse as she grew. She was the kind of kid who stubbornly announced that she was going to be partaking in the science fair, and making the most ambitious of projects. Rylie and Calder both tried to get her to choose something that required a little less work, so that she could just rest for a little while, but… she flat out refused, and spent two whole weeks working flat out to make sure that it was ready. She was doing it, and more than that, she was going to succeed– and she did, placing 2nd in the fair overall. Times like those, it paid off to be stubborn. Other times, though, it really didn’t.
SPECIAL TALENTS:
ELECTRICITY MANIPULATION ;; it’s a dangerous power for someone like Ingrid to have. She’s not good with keeping things lowkey– when she’s angry, it builds, and builds, until it’s let out in one destructive explosion, and often times this happens quite quickly, because she’s a very reactive person. Electricity manipulation was asking for trouble, but, she knows how she is and from the minute she discovered it, she’s been working on reigning it in and keeping control.
WHO THEY LIKE BETTER:
RYLIE. It’s a classic case of one being their father’s son, and the other being a proper little mummy’s girl. They mightn’t be the most similar on the surface, but, Ingrid always gravitated towards her Mum the most– to the point that even as a baby, only Rylie was able to calm her down when she was crying.
WHO THEY TAKE AFTER MOST:
BOTH. And neither. Ingrid is a strange sort of inbetween– she’s like both of them, in a way, but she’s also really unique, and lacks the kind of negative traits that make up who Rylie and Calder are. It’s like Rune got a mix of those and she got a mix of their positives, tenfold, making her into the girl she is.
PERSONAL HEADCANON(S):
See below.
FACE CLAIM:
Willa Fitzgerald
(( * FREYJA DANIELLE BARTON // CLICK FOR MOODBOARD
“ if you were born with the weakness to fall you were born with the strength to rise. “
NAME:
[ FREYJA ] — the Old Norse goddess of fertility.
[ DANIELLE ] — a french name meaning “god is my judge”. The feminine version of “Daniel”, thus named for Daniel Rogers.
[ BARTON ] — meaning “from the barley farm”
BIRTHDATE:
♓ MARCH 15TH, PISCES ;; friendly and selfless, pisces is a water sign and those born under it are characterized by their extreme empathy and emotional capacity. Highly intuitive and artistic ( in music, especially ) they are faithful and generous to those they hold dear, but can take on the role of a martyr without meaning. Often overly trusting, they’re known to be the most tolerant of the signs.
GENDER:
(cis) Female
APPEARANCE:
[ HAIR ] — Freyja’s hair is caramel in color (occasionally with a hint of bright red streaks), and falls in curls much like Rylie’s to just below her shoulders.
[ EYES ] — unlike the rest of her family, her eyes are hazel.
[ HEIGHT ] — five foot three inches
PERSONALITY:
+ INTELLIGENT ;; she’s always been smart, even when she really didn’t have anything else, or at least… nothing else that made her stand out in a family of agents and potential agents. She didn’t like the same things that Rune and Ingrid did. She didn’t want to be out in the field, throwing herself into danger every other day– but she always had a desire to work behind the scenes, building things that could help other people save the day. SHIELD academy of science and technology was her dream, and, Rylie and Calder always actively encouraged her to reach for it, and couldn’t have been happier when she was accepted in.
- OVER TOLERANT ;; she’s always been the kind to give a few too many chances to people who don’t deserve them. One just isn’t enough– if what they’ve done isn’t that big a deal, in her mind, or they’ve apologized to her, she feels as if they deserve the chance to better themselves, and, is always willing to give it.
+ HOPEFUL ;; she’s always hoping for something. Hoping to make it into the academy of science and technology, hoping to make it as a top student, hoping to be on the same team as her siblings, hoping to make her parents proud, hoping to hold her family together, when they might just fall apart. She always believes in something more, and, trusts that better is coming, even if it isn’t.
- GUILTY ;; unlike her parents, her guilt doesn’t eat her up… but, it’s there. She’s always going to live with the knowledge that the tech malfunctioning was something she should have foreseen, and done something about before it happened. She’s always going to have to live with the fact her sister died, and there’s a slim chance she could have stopped that, and it’s always going to be something that plays on her mind– but she refuses to let it be the one thing that rules her life. She’s seen what comes from allowing guilt consume you, and, she actively works to try get through hers, every single day.
SPECIAL TALENTS:
ENHANCED INTELLIGENCE ;; not even Freyja realizes that her intelligence is in part thanks to her power. She’s just smart. She always has been– she was the kid with the straight A grades and the shining report back at the end of the year. She was the one who got 1st place at science fairs as opposed to 2nd. She’d read for hours every day and just absorb all the information and even as a child, she was full of useless facts that she’d happily throw out over the dinner table. That was before her powers developed, and, while they might’ve given her a bit of an edge in the academy and made her that little bit brighter, her parents already knew she was a smart one. So much so, they couldn’t say they noticed any difference.
WHO THEY LIKE BETTER:
RYLIE. She loves her dad just as much, but, she finds Rylie to be a lot easier to talk to. She’s not as caught up in her own head as Calder, which, Freyja enjoys.
WHO THEY TAKE AFTER MOST:
JANE. I mean… she mightn’t be an astrophysicist, but, Freyja is definitely taking after her grandma far more than she’s taking after her parents.
PERSONAL HEADCANON(S):
See below.
FACE CLAIM:
Stefanie Scott
O V E R A L L H E A D C A N O N :
It took Rylie and Calder a very long time to get together, in spite of the feelings which begun to develop between the two as they grew close to one another again. They could never quite bring themselves to move forwards into any sort of relationship past friendship, because it never felt right– it was betraying Phoebe, in both their minds, and both preferred staying in denial over doing that. However, over time, it got more and more difficult to not fel the way they had started to, and more than that, it grew more difficult to hide the their feelings from everyone that knew them. After a few heart to hearts and some separate reminders by friends who couldn’t stay out of it anymore that Phoebe would want them to be happy, though, they finally began dating– and that was that, with neither of them ever looking back. They fit together better than they could have imagined, a match maybe not made in heaven, but, definitely not made in hell.
Being parents was another thing that took them a while to wrap their heads around– nearly the whole nine months that Rylie was pregnant, in fact. The twins were far from planned, but, cliche as it sounded… the two settled into parenthood better than they could have imagined after their birth. They’d been told by their own parents time and time again that you could never really know what it was like to be a Mum, or a Dad, until you were one, and with Rune and Ingrid they discovered that was true. It was never easy, but, the one thing they had going for them and could build from was that they loved their kids more than anything in the world, and wanted to give them the best of lives– so that was what they aimed for every single day. Three years later when Freyja was born, they had the whole ‘parenting’ thing… well, not exactly down, but, close enough.
As the twins grew, it became obvious that features weren’t the only thing they shared– they also looked up to their parents and the Avengers, and much like their Mum and Dad, wanted to eventually follow in their footsteps and join SHIELD. Of course, Rylie and Calder had made sure that each of their children received basic defense training but when Rune and Ingrid wanted to do even more, they had to make the decision… did they want their kids living the same kind of life they’d had? Regardless the answer to that, they also had to ask themselves if they could really stop them if they didn’t want them to and looking at the two of them– both as stubborn as their parents before them– they really weren’t so sure. Finally, they relented, and the twins proved to be two of the brightest new recruits SHIELD took on.
Rune was a leader, and that position was where he excelled. He was good at making decisions (even hard ones) in little to no time, and his parents were both so proud when he was made leader of the small team that he and Ingrid had been placed on. Ingrid, then, was far more like her mother– she was a field agent through and through, capable of making decisions if they were called for, but far better at following orders she was given. Together and apart, the two were formidable. And then, you had Freyja– the youngest, who followed suit much later and had huge shoes to fill from the gt go. She never really found her calling as a field agent, but she was one of the brightest students at the SHIELD academy of science and technology, and did far better work developing things in the lab than she could ever hope to on a mission. It would have been an absolute travesty not to have all the Calderson-Barton children on a team together, of course, and so, when Freyja completed her studies, she was placed on Rune and Ingrid’s team as a tech specialist.
Rylie and Calder couldn’t have been more proud of their kids, and couldn’t have been happier at how their lives had just seemed to work out. Each of them was doing amazingly in their own chosen line of work, and… they’d never really experienced such consistent happiness before. It really seemed too good to be true.
And it was.
The twins were twenty four when they went on their last mission together. It was totally run of the mill, and, the fight that began after their cover was blown should have been easily put to bed. If not, then, they should’ve been able to reach their Quinjet easily, and make a hasty retreat. But they were cut off from their route and technology developed by Freyja and the other team specialist, specially for Rune, malfunctioned in the middle of the ensuing fire fight. He was left defenseless, and, when all seemed to lost– Ingrid took the hit meant for her brother.
The rest of the team pulled through and the dust settled, but, it was too late. Ingrid was dead, and, things changed.
Rylie and Calder were never as close as they’d been before her death, and, Rune shut himself off– he threw himself into SHIELD, but he never got the same enjoyment out of it as he once had with his twin at his side. Something (more accurately, someone) was missing, and he never found a partner to replace the twin he’d lost. Freyja tried to be the glue that bound for a long time, but, she realized pretty quickly that she couldn’t fix everything and she couldn’t erase the guilt she had for being partly to blame, and soon she too began to spend more and more time away than she did at home. It took years for them all to be able to be around each other, without thoughts of Ingrid, and even longer for them to go back to being something of a family– but while things might have healed, gradually, they never could go back to 'normal’. It just didn’t exist anymore.

Sun in Gemini
With the Sun in Gemini, the urge for self-expression is strong. These natives are often just as interested in collecting information as they are in sharing it. Curious to a fault, Geminis have a finger in every pie.
Solar Geminis are flexible and changeable people. Their ability to adapt quickly to new situations generally gains them plenty of friends and social contacts. Usually quite clever and witty, Geminis enjoy intellectual conversations and they are easily bored if they are not getting enough mental stimulation. Often quite adept at fitting in with others, Geminis easily adopt the moods of those around them. They are friends to people from all walks of life, and are not easily intimidated. Their ability to detach themselves can make Geminis very objective and observant, but a little difficult to get close to. Although they often have many friends, intimacy doesn't come as easily to Solar Geminis. It can be difficult to know what Gemini really feels at any given moment. They are often very impressionable and scattered. There is usually a nervous air to Geminis that can make more personal characters a little uneasy. It is not always intuitive to trust Geminis to be loyal or to keep secrets. Geminis often flit about, moving quickly and keeping busy every step of the way. Many people with this position of the Sun have gained quite a bit of knowledge in their lifetimes, but they don't often possess specialized knowledge. This is because Geminis have relatively short attention spans. Restlessness is especially common with this position of the Sun. Usually quite affable, Geminis enjoy the "light" side of life. This tendency to take things lightly makes them quite pleasing to be around; but it can be maddening to people seeking support on the deeper issues in life. Geminis are both interesting and interested. Their wit can be dazzling and their changeability dizzying. At the very least, Geminis will seldom bore you. Short description: He is an opportunist. He can express himself easily and learns quickly. He is welcoming and gentle. He likes travel and intellectual work. Weaknesses: a changeable and diffuse nature. Wastes energy by doing too many things. He lacks persistence in achieving set goals.
Moon in Leo Depending on other positions in the chart, Moon in Leo people are not necessarily outgoing. When they feel comfortable, they do like being the center of attention. That is, they like being in the "spotlight" in the comfort of their own homes and with family and friends. They enjoy entertaining others, and often take on the role of comic. Lunar Leos often feel a need to organize, and even control, their families and friends. They have an inner mission to set things right, and generally like to oversee the goings-on in their little circle. This is a rather creative position of the Moon. At the very least, Moon in Leo people want to create and entertain. They can be rather lazy at times, and a little bossy too. Generally, though, they have a deep need to treat others fairly and justly. Lunar Leos require lots and lots of love and care in order to function well in the world. When they feel slighted, these people can be dramatic in their emotional displays. When their pride has been hurt, they are given to big scenes and sulking. This rarely happens in public, however. Lunar Leos are far too concerned about their image to make splashy scenes outside the comfort of their own homes. In public, they prefer to take things in dignified ways. At home, however, they're given to big displays of emotional drama. These scenes generally don't last too long, however. Lunar Leos are often personally popular folk who are valued for their integrity and strong sense of justice. Generally, it is easy to reason with a Lunar Lion. Appealing to their well-developed sense of fairness usually works well. Short description: He is brave and knows how to take risks, has the courage of his convictions, is honest , imposing and sharp. He has a great sense of, and respect for, justice. Organizational sense. Selectivity in friends, but is not overly influenced by them. Taste for splendor. Weaknesses: changing and numerous affections. Emotionally demanding and proud. Brooding when attention is not forthcoming.
Ascendant In Aries People with Aries Ascendants are direct and quick. Their first instinct is to do, rather than think. Planning ahead? Forget it. Aries rising simply charges forward without much ado. This position does not make a person aggressive. Forthright, yes, but aggression is too strong a word for these natives. They have a youthful, direct manner that sees what it wants and generally goes for it. At the same time, there isn't any malice in their intent. Some Aries rising people are competitive, but they generally put most of the pressure on themselves. These people love to come out ahead in all that they do. They get ready quickly, walk quickly, and have little patience for dilly-dallying. Their temper is quick, too. It's also quick to disappear. Rarely do you find Aries rising people holding grudges. Their mannerisms are rather simple and straightforward. Aries rising loves action, and is often trying to stir up some activity. Their strengths lie in their enterprising ways. Finishing things they start does not always come as easily, unless the ruler, Mars, is placed in a more tenacious sign, such as Taurus or Scorpio. Aries Ascendant often gives a rather swift walk, with the head leaning forward slightly. This walk is surprisingly distinctive. Headaches, and sinus and eye problems are the usual physical complaints of this position. Rashes and acne on the face and shoulders sometimes occur. Broad shoulders and slim hips are common. Often, Aries rising people are quick to smile, and they possess a youthful charm throughout life. Probably early on in life, Aries rising people got typecast as the "independent" child. As adults, people with Aries Ascendants often stick to that role in life. People don't run to help them out -- they appear quite fine doing things on their own. These people have learned to be self-reliant, and this generally stems from their early experiences. Despite a rather brusque and independent manner, these natives are usually very willing to compromise in their relationships, and are very attached to the people they hold dear.

New from Kevin Wozniak on Kevflix: Top 5 – Will Smith Movies
For over fifteen years, Will Smith was the man. He was an actor who’s movies made tons of money and were well-received critically, along with getting some play from the Oscars. He also had a personality unlike anyone else in Hollywood and was always the coolest person in the room. But over the last decade, Smith has hit a rough patch, a very brutal rough patch at that. I don’t know what happened, but Smith’s choice in roles, along with some of his performances, have been questionable to say the least. Even with these questionable choices, I still get excited when Smith is in a movie, which is one of the reasons I cannot wait to see Smith’s latest film, Gemini Man, the new action film from director Ang Lee. So in honor of that, here are my picks for the best Will Smith movies.
The films on this list are based on the quality of the film and Smith’s performance.
5 – MUHAMMED ALI in ALI (Michael Mann, 2001)
After becoming a box office king in the late 90’s, Smith took his talents to the Oscar stage in Ali, Michael Mann’s biopic of the legendary boxer. This isn’t your typical boxing movie, however. Mann doesn’t focus on Ali’s fights in the ring, but his fights outside of it. Ali had one of the biggest personality in all of sports, so you needed an actor with just as big of a personality to play him and Smith matches that. Smith got swole as hell and learned Ali’s speech mannerisms and how to box for the role and he carries this movies. Though not the Muhammed Ali film people imagined, it is Smith’s arresting, Oscar nominated performance along with Mann’s stellar filmmaking and storytelling that makes Ali one of the best boxing movies ever.
4 – MIKE LOWREY in BAD BOYS & BAD BOYS II (Michael Bay, 1995 & 2003)
Bad Boy and Bad Boys II are movies I simply love. I am a bigger fan of Michael Bay than most, as I believe nobody makes movies quite like him and I only dislike a small handful of his movies. The one thing Bay isn’t really good at is character development and getting great performances from his actors. But that doesn’t matter in the Bad Boys films because the actors are doing their own lifting. Smith, along with co-star Martin Lawrence just do their funny, buddy-cop thing, playing off of each other beautifully to give us a number of laughs and a lot of heart. They know Mike and Marcus and they know their relationship. This allows Bay to unleash full Bayhem on screen, with loud, insane, explosive set-pieces and makes Bad Boys and Bad Boys II two action films that are absolute blasts.
3 – CAPTAIN STEVEN HILLER in INDEPENDENCE DAY (Roland Emmerich, 1996)
Independence Day is the movie that made Will Smith the movie star we know him to be. Before this, Smith’s only leading man role was in Bad Boys, but he was mostly known for his rap career and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. But Roland Emmerich’s alien blockbuster put Smith on the main stage and he crushed it. Playing Captain Steven Hiller, a Marine pilot who ends up on the forefront of an alien invasion taking over Earth, Smith showed he could carry a movie by bringing his Fresh Prince humor, Bad Boys action heroism, and the swagger he had since day one. Smith steals the movie and made Independence Day a holiday classic and a landmark in summer movies.
2 – ROBERT NEVILLE in I AM LEGEND (Francis Lawrence, 2007)
At this moment in his career, Will Smith was basically unstoppable. He was a two-time and his last six films had all grossed over $100 million at the domestic box office, which included movies like Hitch and The Pursuit of Happyness, both of which made over $150 and both of which would barely make $50 million today if they didn’t go straight to Netflix of Amazon. So Smith then took on one of the toughest roles of his career in I Am Legend, where for nearly the entire movie it is just Smith and a dog on screen. As the only survivor of a plague that has killed most of humanity, Smith plays a man who is desperately trying to find a cure while trying to survive against the infected humans and his own loneliness. Whether talking to his trustee dog, Sam, or running away from an infected human, you can’t take your eyes off of Smith. Smith also showcases how insanely talented he is by showing off his action-star chops and coupling that with moments of humor and heart-wrenching emotion. This is the best performance of Smith’s career.
1 – AGENT J in MEN IN BLACK (Barry Sonnenfeld, 1997)
As stated with Independence Day, the 90’s belonged to Smith and if you had any questions about his charisma, star-power, and acting ability, it was all answered in Men in Black. Smith plays Agent J, the hot-shot new agent of a secret government agency known as the Men In Black (M.I.B.) who are in-charge of policing and monitoring extraterrestrial interactions on Earth. J and his partner, Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones at his best) are in search of a giant, interstellar cockroach who is disguised as a farmer (Vincent D’Onofrio, in one of the truly great sci-fi performances ever) who’s presence on Earth puts the whole planet at risk. The chemistry between Smith and Jones is incredible, with Smith’s wild, loud humor mixing perfectly with Jones’ quick, dry one-liners. This was Smith solidifying himself as one of Hollywood’s best leading men and he did in an exciting, hilarious, action-packed, and endlessly rewatchable film.

8 Reasons Why Taurus Guys Pull Away
New Post has been published on https://taurusmen.net/why-taurus-man-pulls-away-from-relationship/
8 Reasons Why Taurus Guys Pull Away
If you’ve been dating a Taurus man, but now for some reason, he’s started to pull away then you’re probably feeling a little confused.
There are several reasons why men pull away at different stages of a relationship. However, for the Taurus man, there are some common factors that can make him behave this way.
For a really detailed explanation of this along with the three key reasons that cause a Taurus man to pull away (and what you can do about it), you may want to check out astrologer Anna Kovach’s new book, Taurus Man Secrets. I reviewed it here for my readers.
However, in this article, I’m am also going to share with you some insights on why he may be acting this way and what you can do to bring him back to you.
Taurus men love to take their time before deciding whether they should date a woman or continue seeing her if it is still in the early stages of the relationship. They do not like been pushed or rushed, and they can also be very cautious and stubborn if they feel they are being coerced.
In a relationship, a Taurus man tends to be very loyal and devoted. A relationship with him is likely to last once the two of you have decided that you’re right for each other. However, there are things that can make him become distant, withdrawn and start to pull away from you.
Common Reasons Why a Taurus Man Pulls Away
He feels insecure
Taurus men value security, and they also want to feel secure when in a relationship with a woman.
So, your Taurus lover is likely to withdraw from you if he feels his security is threatened. However, there can be a number of reasons why he may be feeling this way, so you will need to have a conversation with him to find out why he is perceiving things in this way.
For instance, if he notices you have been talking to a specific guy constantly, he may start to question your feelings towards him. This may lead to him withdrawing before you reject him. This is more likely the case if you are in the early stages of a relationship as he still does not know the person that you are.
He’s not ready for a change
Taurus men do not cope very well with change.
He does not adapt very well to changes in his job, relationships, or in his surroundings in general. So, Taurus guys tend to be very stubborn whenever they’re required to do things differently.
What’s more, if for instance you want to move in with your Taurus lover and he is not ready, he may distance himself because he is afraid of losing control over his freedom and the lifestyle he is used to.
If this is the case then all you need to do is allow him time to feel comfortable with the idea of the two of you become closer. Don’t do or say anything that will make him feel you are trying to rush him. Just take your time and allow yourself to enjoy the connection you are experiencing with him.
The danger is, however, if we are too laid back then it is likely our man will become too comfortable with the casual arrangement.
Fortunately, relationship coach Amy North teaches women a sneaky technique she calls her “devotion sequence” for this very reason.
Amy’s psychological trick leads a man to feel a level of desire beyond love and make him feel an emotional connection to you, and only you. Amy explains the method here.

He’s not that much into you
Taurus guys want to date a woman they are attracted to and, as mentioned previously, they tend to take their time in deciding if a woman is right for them.
So, if you have been interacting with your Taurus crush, and he has suddenly disappeared, it could be he does not find you as appealing as he once thought, or he is not interested in spending the rest of his life with you.
In other words, your Taurus crush is likely to withdraw if he realizes that you are incompatible or that you do not have the qualities he is looking for in a long-term partner.
Your Taurus crush can also lose interest in you if you do something that made him feel inferior or jealous.
Unfortunately, in some cases, he may be pulling away from you for this reason, but you have not yet had the opportunity to show him who you really are.
To solve this problem, next time you talk to him casually drop these subtle words into your conversation to change his mindset and get him to view you through the eyes of attraction.
It’s pretty simple, the video on this page will explain what you need to do.
You’re too needy
The desire of every Taurus guy is to be with a woman who has the ability to do things without depending on him. He also wants a woman who knows how to enjoy her own company.
So, your Taurus crush will pull back if he feels suffocated, trapped, or like he is losing his freedom due to the relationship.
In other words, your Taurus boyfriend will walk out on you if he realizes that you are a desperate and needy woman who does not have the ability to meet her personal and emotional needs by herself.
So, if you depend on your Taurus boyfriend to fill an emotional void, or fulfil your every need and desire, he will certainly lose interest in you and pull away.

Dishonesty
Taurus men are known to be very honest and loyal, and their desire is to date a woman who is also as honest as he is.
That said, if your he realizes that you are pretending to be a person you are not so that you can impress him, he will likely lose interest in you completely.
So, if you are eyeing a Taurus guy and you want your relationship to last for the long-term, it is important that you prove to him that you are an honest woman.
He’s hurt
Even though Taurus guys are very patient, calm and grounded, they tend to also be very sensitive and can get quite angry when they are no longer able to tolerate a situation.
So, if he suddenly withdraws from you, and you do not get to hear from him, it could be that he is feeling hurt by something you did or said.
However, if your Taurus man is giving you the silent treatment, it is important that you give him space to cool down and talk to you when he is ready.

You are too domineering
A Taurus man wants to be in charge and he hates it when a woman dominates his life.
Taurean guys don’t want to be with a woman who is bossy and overbearing.
Above all, if he feels like he is dating his mother when he is with you then he will lose interest in you faster than you can blink.
He could have lost interest in you if you have been denying him the opportunity to be the leader from time to time, or by bossing him around or acting like a mom to him.
In other words, Taurus men do not want to be told what to do. So, if you keep nagging him with what he should and shouldn’t do, it won’t be too long before he ghosts you.
Related article: Why he’s ignoring your text messages
He is busy
Another reason why a Taurus man withdraws is that he is just too busy.
Taurus men are known to be very hard working by nature, and it could be he is ignoring you because he is working on something that is very urgent and doesn’t have time to spend with you at the moment.
If your Taurus man is acting distant, it is because he may be focusing on an important work project. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that he wants to break up with you.
If he’s into you then he’ll come back once things have settled down for him, so just be patient and give him space.

Final Thoughts
There are several reasons why your Taurus man may be acting distant. It is important to first figure out the reason for his withdrawal before jumping to conclusions.
If he just needs some space for a while then give him what he needs and he will appreciate and respect you all the more for it once he is more settled.
If, however, there are some clear signs that indicate he is losing interest in you then you have two choices;
Walk away from him and move on
Use the simple yet powerful words hat relationship coach, Amy North teaches to trigger is feelings of attraction and desire for you. You can learn more about Amy’s psychological hack here.
