Not a single soul: ....

Not a single soul at Hogwarts: ....

Not even Marvolo: ....

Also not even the snake, Rerek: ....

Ominis: ONCE A COWARD, ALWAYS A COWARD. JUST ASK DUNCAN HOBHOUSE.

@woundedeagle

Lmao, don't think I've ever wrote about Duncan before, and I'm not in on the whole Duncan and Ominis having beef thing? 🤣 ive never seen that before haha, but thats hilarious💚 when I read your message, this little idea came to me. So hope its good enough for you.

(Some of the beast class students at a Puffskein Den doing research)

Ominis: *leaning back against a tree with his arms folded, while MC gets them the information they need*

Poppy and Sebastian: *laughing and joking as they pet Puffskeins*

Duncan: *kinda freaking out in a corner*

Marvolo: *happens to roll up with Rerek close next to him* Ominis?

Ominis: *turns his head* Marvolo? What are you doing here?

Marvolo: *smirks* This is Rereks favourite Puffskein spot...We didn't expect there to be a gaggle of hogwarts students here though..*turns to Rerek* Seems like your grub is busy Rerek, we'll have to come back later, or go to another den..

Rerek: Oh for fuck sake..

(Marvolo looks over, spotting Duncan anxiously wandering around, looking terrified at the Puffskeins, a playful grin curls onto his lips)

Marvolo: Pfffft, who's the little prick clearly horrified of these fluffballs

Ominis: *smirks* Duncan.. And you're right.. He's scared of them..

Rerek: *slithers up to drape around Marvolos' neck and shoulders* P-HA! Did I hear that correctly?!

Marvolo: *chuckles* Yes..

(A Puffskein suddenly gets really close to Duncan, he screams like a little girl and starts running away, causing Marvolo and Rerek to laugh)

Duncan: *screaming, not looking where he's going, as he runs in Marvolo and Ominis' direction, before finally turning forward, seeing Marvolo towering over him *smirking* and Rerek, who brings his head forward and hisses aggressively at him* Aaaagh!!! *falls back*

Rerek: *hissy laugh* Silly little bitch..

Marvolo: *laughs looking down at him* If you're terrified of a little Puffskein, I dont blame you for being terrified of Rerek. *wicked little smirk*

Duncan: Wh-Who are you?

Ominis: He's my brother, now go away Dun-

Marvolo: *lies* LOOK OUT THERES ONE BEHIND YOU!!!!!

Duncan: *screams and scrambles away*

Marvolo and Ominis: *both slap their knee and burst out laughing in unison*

Ominis: A rare moment Marvolo, but you just made my day. *continues chuckling*

Marvolo: *chuckles* A rare moment indeed...I do so ADORE fucking with people though...Its Especially fun when I know their fear..

EB: […] i'm not sure if i actually want to encourage you to go off fighting him… EB: because as strong as you probably are, it sounds like he is REALLY strong. EB: and even though you killed tons of people, i think i would still be pretty sad if you died. […] EB: so maybe you should just let us handle it? at least we won't fight him directly.

Well, if you actually manage to destroy the Sun, Jack will be significantly weaker, albeit still threatening.

If we can't convince Vriska to back off, maybe we can convince her to at least delay her attack. Once Jack's no longer a First Guardian, she'll be able to swoop in for a duel she could actually win.

Against Semi-Perfect Jack, I'd give her even odds - but what are the odds if she leaves now? Does she stand any chance against a Jack at the height of his power?

Well, maybe. I know I just joked about her getting annihilated, but Aradia did prove that God Tier powers work on him. Vriska's luck stealing is capable of some pretty astounding feats, but is it really enough to compensate for their enormous power differential? Luck can only take you so far, after all.

I'd give Perfect Jack a huge advantage in this fight, but a Vriska victory isn't completely out of the question, and I can see a few ways she could clinch it.

For example - what are the odds of Jack's Ring falling off?

Is it a million-to-one chance?

Is it a sixteen-million-to-one chance?

AG: You know how I said I couldn't rel8 to the attachment you have for your guardians? […] AG: Well, I guess that isn't completely true. AG: There are adult trolls who we can rel8 to, if we choose to, and if we are lucky enough to discover who they are. AG: 8ut it is not really in a familial sense, at least not socially speaking, the way you understand family. They are more like figures of legend, who are said to have more in common with us genetically than any other troll. 8ut we can never meet them of course. Only look up to them, and follow in their footsteps, 8ecause they died centuries ago.

Wait, so Mother Grubs are sitting on the same DNA for centuries?

I suppose that's why they're ancestors, rather than parents. It's a little strange that Mother Grubs hang onto the same genetic templates for so long, but this is alien biology we're talking about. Anything is possible.

Can the same genetic templates be reused multiple times, then? Can one single ancestor have multiple descendants, allowing trolls to have siblings as well as parents?

...hey, they might even have grandparents! If every troll has an ancestor, then your ancestors will have ancestors themselves, and they'd be your second-order ancestor, too.

AG: I am completely certain it is true, and I know who mine is! AG: I have 8een doing my 8est to honor her legacy for most of my life. AG: I even named my roleplaying character after her!

So this is why she’s so gung-ho about Marquise Spinneret Mindfang. Lay it on us, Vriska!

don't think about baby vriska being forced to kill don't think about baby vriska being forced to kill don't think about baby vriska being for

AG: It was 8efore I ever started gaming, or rounding up other kids to feed my lusus. AG: I was nearing the age where I would 8e expected to feed her.

[traincat]

i was trying to explain to my mom how the harry potter game is antisemitic (we are not jewish) and she didnt really seem to get it. she was like "i mean if they were wearing yarmulkes i would be like yeah, the goblins are supposed to be jewish". do you know of a good source that i could send her that would break down the jewish stereotypes and how they arent just coincidence? if you dont have a good source dont worry about it but i saw you reblog stuff about it so i thought you might. thank you for your time!

I have a few resources I'm linking in my reply here, but I'm probably not going to be answering other questions about this because, to be honest, as a Jewish person in fandom, it's stressful. I'm reblogging stuff about Hogwarts Legacy because I'm Jewish and the antisemitism in the game is vile to the point where it feels irresponsible for me not to address it in some way, and because it ties into a lot of the other antisemitism I've personally faced in fandom when speaking about anything Jewish. I feel like your mother may have some trouble grasping the antisemitism because she seems to be viewing Judaism solely as a faith, when Judaism is an ethnoreligion -- a religion, an ethnic group, and wide and varied culture, and so stereotypes about Jewish people don't have to involve religious symbols and very often involve specific physical features, ie, big noses. The goblins in Harry Potter are short, ugly, and they have huge noses -- these are all features commonly associated in antisemitic caricature with Ashkenazi Jewish men. The idea that the goblins would only be valid caricatures of Jewish people if they were wearing a specific piece of clothing is troubling because it invokes the yellow stars Jews were made to wear by the Nazis. (For the record, my uncle wears a yarmulke full time, but the other men on my mother's side of the family do not. This does not make them less Jewish.)

But if your mother needs a symbol associated with the Jewish faith to help her understand, it's been noted that the game features a "goblin horn" that is very clearly a shofar, an important piece of Judaica which is used for religious purposes. (There's also a link between the date the horn is given in the game and a very brutal pogrom; more info in the twitter thread linked. If you want to get an idea of how virulent antisemitism is in fandom, the response to this thread and others like it are A Lot.) Like I can't say enough how blatant this is, and the reason it's getting by so many people are 1) a lot of non-Jewish people are at least on a base level, if not actively antisemitic themselves, basically okay with antisemitism, because antisemitism is so present in our culture and 2) uneducated on Jewish matters.

It's also important to note that in the Harry Potter world, goblins are specifically bankers. This is how they are first introduced to readers and this is their primary association in world: the goblins are literally guarding the gates on huge piles of wizard gold. This is an antisemitic stereotype, as Jews are often perceived as being money grubbing and greedy, as well as "secretly controlling" the greater world's wealth. More info in this wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_antisemitism. This thread by Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg also breaks down the connection between the "greedy Jew" stereotype and the historical precedent for Jewish moneylenders, a profession that was foisted on them because it was distasteful to Christians: https://twitter.com/TheRaDR/status/1057333224538624001. Harry Potter is not unique in these depictions. There is an example of this in, say, Star Trek, where the Ferengi are a race of greedy, money-obsessed aliens who have exaggerated "ugly" features and who are often depicted as oversexed, especially when it comes to women of other, more classically attractive alien races (this is another antisemitic stereotype of Jewish men). But the Ferengi are also all played by Jewish actors, and in the show where they feature most, Deep Space 9, they're protagonists. So while the Ferengi are rooted in antisemitic stereotypes, the involvement of Jewish creatives and their role in the story makes it a more complicated, nuanced situation. This is not what is happening in Hogwarts Legacy.

It's not a coincidence that the goblins in Harry Potter have always been depicted as bankers right from book one. While you can theoretically separate the series from Rowling's transphobia (although, y'know, you shouldn't), the antisemitism is baked into the series. Hogwarts Legacy just takes it to a whole other incredibly overt level. The point of the game is violence against Jews, and we see that because it's revealing just how many people out there are fine with demonizing Jews specifically and the level of violence Jewish people often face in fandom when they speak out about antisemitism.

Zerkev, why did you decide to raise your own descendant?

> The Marauder, so used to scribbling away while he speaks to you, suddenly falls very still. A distant look settles over the general, his expression unreadable.

> When he deigns to speak, his voice is soft.

"Redivi takes in runts."

"The day I hatched, I could've fit in the palm of your hand. Wouldn't even open my eyes at first, he tells me. Says it took a week before I started crawling for food.

Any normal cavern would have culled me on sight, caste and bloodline be damned."

"But my father doesn't run a normal cavern.

I don't know what the defect was. I couldn't tell you what fixed it, whether it was a matter of genetics or Redivi nurturing it out, but whatever the reason... I was lucky. Before long, I caught up with my peers and then some."

"I became a general. An emperor. Looking at me today, you'd never know I came from a dud egg."

"But I knew.

And I was terrified I'd pass it on.

We're a legacy bloodline, you know. About as old as the species itself, with a reputation earned and maintained for centuries. And here I was, a troll that shouldn't have lived. Imperfect.

I feared two things. The first, that I'd ruin the Pravus name, be the weak link that ended us. The second... That any kid I made would suffer the kind of rejection I so narrowly escaped."

"And I got it in my head that I needed to be involved. That it was my responsibility to fix whatever flaw they'd get from me.

When Kiyana hatched, I knew she'd be fine. She was strong, healthy, intelligent. I was relieved to know I wouldn't ruin any grub I touched, but the biggest concern still remained.

What would mine be like?

And then...

Then came Mallum."

"And he was everything I could have hoped for.

Maybe it was the Drakon in him, or maybe I was just an isolated fluke, but he... He was perfect. Large, energetic, curious..."

> The Marauder's voice catches slightly.

"That boy stole my heart the moment I laid eyes on him."

"And it should have been enough... Should have laid those fears to rest, enough to set him loose and let him live the normal life I wasn't fit for.

But my fears don't rest easy. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong with him. Something I couldn't yet see. I wanted to be sure.

Or... Maybe that was just the lie I told myself.

Maybe I just couldn't stand the thought that he'd become something great, not because, but in spite of me.

Doesn't really matter, in the end. Above all of that... I raised him because he was something incredible."

"He was mine."

[arch-official]

currently installing Arch on my other (older) laptop, saving it from years of the WORST dual boot ever

(i had win10 set up on UEFI and ubuntu on Legacy, don't ask me how i got to that point i was young and stupid, also i didn't have GRUB or any kind of decent boot manager)

I have several questions about that set up

[doubleddenden]

Fuck the Pokémon Company International.

They hired a third party company of lawyers that sent a DMCA to Relic Castle- for those not aware, Relic Castle was a friendly online forum dedicated to Pokémon fan games, rom hacks, and game jams- all of which were free and did not earn a single penny, and were just loving pieces of playable fan art. It would have been 10 this year.

Funny how they do this after their Twitter account kept retweeting fan art and talking about how much they love fan art the last few weeks. Hmm. Funny how that works.

I've heard people claim they legally "have" to do it, but look at Sonic the Hedgehog- not only do they encourage fan games, they actually poach talent- that's how Mania was made. Ideas, too- that's how Frontiers was made. "Legally" they could have just left it alone. "Legally" they could have just taken ideas from it like GF has been taking from fan games for the last 10 years (variants, the SwSh league, etc). "Legally" they could have just kept riding positive PR from Legends ZA and kept fucking quiet.

But no, they can't handle not being in the spotlight for any reason. They intentionally create negative press for themselves just to stay relevant. Fuck you, The Pokémon Company International. The only reason you have success is because of dedicated fans that you relentlessly punish for no reason except greed. I hope your filthy, greedy, money grubbing, selfish executives lose their jobs and are replaced by people that actually care some day.

And thank you, Relic Castle, for the fun times. I hope this doesn't deter any of the devs from there from creating, and I think that if you guys were to make Pokémon clones akin to Nexomon or Coromon, I'd gladly buy them. You don't deserve the treatment you've been given for making playable fan art.

Do better, Pokémon. Shame on you. You don't deserve the fans you have and you dishonor yourselves and your legacy when you do shit like this.

[autisticsupervillain]

Now that Zero Punctuation is over, I want to immortalize it with some of Yahtzee's best quotes. God speed you magnificent British bastard.

"Those who had the random chance of being born white in the first world are the most privileged fucking people on this unequal fucking planet and Call of Duty is just those people complaining about how hard life can be when everyone's jealous of you."

"We live in an age where mass communication has counterintuitively turned all attempts at verbal debate into a basketball game where the teams are on different courts, racking up meaningless points and throwing shit over the dividing wall. That's why the only way you can safely express your politics these days is to anonymously spend money. That's how homophobic pizza joints can mysterious aquire a million dollars in donations. So two groups of middle class people annoy each other, Hatred makes tons of money, and the world at large gives less of a toss than a quadriplegic shot putter, good night!"

"The only reason I wanted to talk about it was the depressing inditement of modern gaming it creates. Not by itself, but by Value's indifference to this waterfall of piss trickling down its legacy's nose. Twenty years ago, Half Life was a focal point in gaming's ever-growing development as an artistic medium. The next few years saw a slew of titles that combined triple A game design with genuine emotional story. But what happened between then and now?! Why are the games rewarded with triple A status and income exclusively loot box infested live service bullshit designed not to stimulate our emotions, but to numb them and hypnotize us into lab rats mindlessly pawing the button that makes treats come out while games created with love drown beneath bottom feeders like Hunt Down the Freeman as Valve themselves, once habitual founders of new eras of narrative gaming just waves them on, barely glancing up from their tax paper work. What happened to you! What happened to us!? To the people we were supposed to become!"

"Hogwarts Legacy is by every definition of the phrase, a game made by cunts. As well as very literally a game made by a cunt."

"We really need a better term for shit like Gotham Knights than 'live service'. It sounds too much like a good thing. Being alive is good and so is being serviced. We can't let the publishers control the narrative on this one, they'd call a kick in the bullocks a key entertainment reinvigoration scheme. Hmmm, how about... cunts. Games made by cunts. Evil money grubbing cunts who make soulless, emotion deading skinner boxes deliberately designed to foster addictive behavior. Demonitize me YouTube, I don't care. And neither does my editor. Probably."

"We as gaming audiences have always separated games into the worthies and the unworthies. My dichotomy is this. Games that make you feel vs games that make you numb."

*Begins review* "Undertale is a good game." *Ends review*

"Let's all laugh at an industry that never learns anything, tee hee hee!"

Vault Tec Legacy Challenge

The Wastelands Part 2

Ellis: Alexia, time to switch.

Alexia: *yawns* Okay, I'm awake I'm awake. Too bad we didn't bring coffee with us.

Ellis: That would be wonderful.

Alexia: Get some shut eye, I'll see you in a couple hours.

Couple hours later

Alexia: Ellis, Time to get up and get some grub. I'm sure you're as hungry as I am right now.

Ellis: *Yawns and stretches* Yeah I could eat

Alexia: Great, I'm making weenies.

Alexia: How are you and Kenzie adjusting to Vault life? I know you guys were out here for years before we accepted you guys.

Ellis: I'm really enjoying it, the safety and community alone is really nice. I don't have to sleep with one eye open anymore for myself and for Kenzie. I think Kenzie misses having lots of friends but that has more to do with the bombs dropping rather than being in the Vault.

Alexia: It must be tough to be the only teenager in the Vault. Val is turning 13 in a couple days but I know it's not the same. How old is Kenzie?

Ellis: She's turning 16 this year. Mary and I had been saving up to buy her a car for her 16th birthday. I guess the money is just wasting away in the bank now.

Alexia: Who knew bottle caps were going to be the new currency? I would have been saving for years. Maybe while we're out we can get a present for both of the girls.

Ellis: Yeah that would be nice. Something that she wouldn't be able to get in the Vault.

Alexia: I'd suggest a book since we're at the old library but I haven't seen her in the Vault library at all.

Ellis: She prefers hanging out at the pool. I think it makes her feel better about her skin wrinkling. It's something that she can control.

Ellis and Alexia sit in silence for a while.

Ellis: I notice something going on between Jameson and you. Is everything okay?

Alexia: Has everyone noticed?

Ellis: I don't think everyone has noticed. I have the closest quarters to the Overseer quarters and I heard shouting. I also noticed Jameson not coming to your quarters at night.

Alexia: Jameson can't seem to understand how much I have on my plate as Overseer. I know we haven't spent time together as of late, but there's so much to be done. Plus, I was freaking out about the generator.

Ellis: I'm sure it's overwhelming. Work life balance has always been a struggle. Take it from me, I missed out on a lot of Kenzie's childhood because I was too focused on becoming the best scientist I could be. And have breakthroughs.

Alexia: I know I've missed a lot already with both of my girls. How did you manage it?

Ellis: To tell you the truth, I didn't. Not until she was all I had.

Alexia: I don't know how to do it. From the time I wake up til the time I put my head on my pillow, my time is filled with issues with the Vault, issues with Vault Dwellers, and planning for the future. I rarely get any social or me time. There's been many days I've forgotten to eat.

Ellis: You need help Alexia. I know you're the Overseer, but you deserve to spend time with your kids and your husband.

Alexia: I think it's too late for us.

Ellis: Why do you say that?

Alexia: I supported that man through all of his hobbies, every time he picked up something new, he was out with his friends or doing his hobby. There was no time for me. That was the first two to three years of our marriage. I never complained, he did his thing and I did mine. There would be some romance and intimate time, but not a lot.

Ellis: What changed?

Alexia: The bombs fell.

Ellis: Did he realize his mistakes?

Alexia: No, I never brought it up and we never talked about how he treated me. I think things changed because I was all he had.

Ellis: Oh.

Alexia: We've got a long journey ahead of us, let's get walking.

A couple hours later

Ellis: I'm starting to get hungry, you?

Alexia: Yeah, I could eat.

Ellis: I think we could go in there and find some food? We don't have much food leftover in our packs.

Alexia: Alright, let's check it out.

Unknown: Stop right there! Why are you on our land?

Alexia: Sorry! We didn't know!

Unknown: You're gonna pay for that!

In the prison of the unknown camp

Ellis: Alexia can you hear me? Alexia?!

If nobody cares about your diet restrictions, you gotta figure out how to whip up your own grub 🤷🏻‍♀️

Miller Legacy G15 beginning

[warrior-cats-rewritten]

Fun Facts about each WCR Protagonist: Crowfeather Edition!

He had an incredible bond with his mother when he was little, and his older brother, Eaglefoot. His father, Deadfoot, sadly died when Crowkit was small, roughly 2 moons old. He feels like he has to make his dad proud and put some pressure onto himself.

Originally, he did not want to go on the Journey. The first cat to come to him was Ashfoot's old friend, Morningflower, who died in the place of Gorsepaw during TPB.

He had a "friendship" with Cranberrypaw as they train together. Cranberrypaw claims they are friends, and acts friendly towards him, but to him, she is like an annoying little sister, and he doesn't want to think about a sister after losing his own...

He also has a bit of a rivalry with Nightpaw/Nightcloud. She got her name early after catching managing to bringing down a hawk single hand- er... Single pawed? She killed a hawk and managed to bring home a load of grubs to eat.

His brother and sister, Hillkit and Downkit, survived, but his sister Downpaw died from a poisoned rabbit. That night, his father visited him with his sister and told him that to prevent the whole Clan, no, the whole FOREST, from having Downpaw's fate, he needed to go. This was the push that made him go on the Journey.

He is a descendant of Moon Flight, through her kits. One of their own descendants had was a surrogate for a Windclan couple and accidentally brought the Windstar Bloodline back to Windclan. It is most likely on Honey Pelt's side.

This means, though it doesn't matter in terms of Kin, he is related to Blackstar, who is the descendant of Spider Paw.

He and Feathertail are no longer having a weird 20-minute romance arc. Instead, she helps him with his grief and feelings about legacy. She is a good friend and like a big sister to him.

Leafpaw, however, IS on the Journey with them, and the 2 become close. They genuinely develop interest, then like, then adoration, then real love for each other.

Crowfeather's brother, Hillfang (who got his name while Crowpaw was on the Journey) is a massive Musclaw supporter, and after that battle, when Hillfang is killed, he and Leafpool run away together at Leafpool's suggestion.

He is overjoyed when Leafpool tells him she is pregnant, but also heartbroken. If he leaves for Thunderclan, Onestar is going to pitch a fit and possibly start war. Onestar changed after getting those lives. He doesn't trust anyone anymore.

Nightcloud was also in hot water. She was a huge Mudclaw supporter, probably his biggest, and her loyalty is being questioned constantly. She and Crowfeather are BOTH up for exile.

They don't want to be mates, but suddenly settling down and starting a family would definitely ease suspicions. Ah, of course, they were just young adults who weren't sure what they wanted in life!

He and Nightcloud just... Weren't meant to be together. While he did bring her food and some stuff for her nest while she was pregnant, even naming their stillborn son Cloudkit. The other son, the one who lasted for about only a few minutes, was named by Nightcloud to be Smokekit. (Yes, this is where Breezepelt gets a name idea for his own daughter, Smokehaze.)

Crowfeather at first suggests to Leafpool when she tells him she is pregnant that they should run again, raise their kits somewhere else, away from judgement. Unfortunately, Leafpool is too emotional for that conversation.

He and Leafpool actually did discuss names though, they picked The Three's names.

He didn't name Breezepelt (Breezekit was a name Nightcloud always liked, and Crowfeather struggled to pick names with Leafpool already) but in WCR, he actually does love his son. The big problem? He never loved Nightcloud, and didn't want to be with her at all. They fight constantly. Nightcloud loves Breezepelt with her whole heart and soul, but Crowfeather, still having deep love for his Thunderclan family, doesn't feel right about it. Is it okay to love Breezepelt? He knows he and Nightcloud should never have been mates, he never wanted to be with her, but does that mean Breezepelt shouldn't exist? He thinks about it a lot.

He and Nightcloud, however, both agreed heavily on who Breezekit's mentor would be. Whitetail! Fitting that Whitetail's daughter Heatherkit would be apprenticed to Crowfeather!

During A Broken Crow's Nest, the reduxed Crowfeather's Trial, he LEAVES Windclan to join Thunderclan permanently, after finding Nightcloud and helping her and her new mate Pickle get back into Windclan. He is still in Thunderclan as of River. His first Thunderclan appearance is in The Hopeless Storm.

He was penalized by Bramblefake for being a Codebreaker and has his apprentice taken away for fear that he would "corrupt" him. His apprentice was Baypaw, who was switched over to Frogsong, a warrior who followed Bramblefake's every word.

He is extremely proud of all his children. Hollyleaf AND Breezepelt are both deputies in their respective Clans.
