#guys i fucking love mal du pays

[fee-phy-fo-fum]

(BUT IT IS.) (THEY DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN.) (THEY WANT TO FORGET YOU.) (THEY HATE YOU)

believe it or not i used to do a lot omori stuff. surprise surprise, huh.

[ohwormwood]

random thoughts i have while playing isat pt. 7

[woe, spoilers be upon ye!]

opened the game and immediately went "im gonna make odile question my sanity!!!" but of course when i enter the house Siffrin decides to turn the scripted tutorial enemy into bean paste and ruins the run--

anyways. this panel will haunt me

i. i dont even know how but. I beat the king without him ever getting a chance to make his first attack. i just kept spamming slow and two jackpots later he was dead. i didn't even knoiw that was possible.

after a bit of fucking around i decided that i was gonna move on to act 5 and promptly burst into tears

update: i accidentally posted this too early dont look at me

sat and cried through the entirety of the party's interactions in act 5

screaming crying throwing up

even the king took one look at this dude and was like "are you good man like, you can take a rest before we do this you're literally about to topple over"

that post where odile says the oven copypasta during the mal du pays scene has permanently altered my brain and i literally laughed out loud when this line appeared

i haven't talked about it before but. a while ago i made a concept for a game based off the backrooms and omori, and odile talking about someone who is forgotten may not exist is the basis for the entire game's plot, it makes me want to go back and flesh it out a bit more!!!

i am deadset on the idea of making an edit with mirabelle's reflection craft but it's an uno reverse card

simultaneously in my brain: an edit where the sound mirabelle's reflection craft makes is the metal pipe meme

i am. such a fucking sucker for sickfics. i cannot get enough of them. act 5 has enough sickfic tropes to make a million spinoff fics on its own, it brings me life and i love it dearly

wailing

this line sends me into orbit every time i see it

odile attacking siffrin. hurts so, so so badly on an emotional level for me. Because like??? i get it. i get it and it sucks and she obviously doesn't want to, but she's scared. But siffrin is even more scared in that moment, and the immediate association of that pain with being hated by odile hurts me so much.

YEAHHHH ODILE GIRLBOSS SUPREME

they're so soft and squishy and cute in this image i c a n t

incoherent WAILING. this. this image. this image just about broke me. THEYRE SO HAPPY and RELIEVED, IT HURTS,,,

the tone shift to talking to the party afterwords is still so funny to me HJBDFBSBFH like lookit him. hes so smol. so silly.

we're kidnapping bonnie guys it's official

my honest reaction to this line: LESBIANS??????

and then she hits me with:

AND I LOST IT

more silly guy siffrin,,,,, my favorite

aaaa aAAAAAAAAAAA

ISABEAU'S SPRITE CHANGING TO BE DOING A HAPPY DANCE AFTER THE CONFESSION IS SOOOOO CUTE WAAA

bonnie and odile clapping for isabeau confessing will never not be funny but ALSO it implies the bonnie knew about Isa's crush. and i for one personally believe that they picked up on it from Odile's relentless teasing of Isabeau as the #1 Isafrin shipper

mirabelle: wait you had a crush on sif?????? and i didn't know????

my roommate, who is ace: this is the aroace experience for real,,,

literally all of the second interactions with Isabeau had me and my roommate SCREAMING

HOWLING LAUGHING

OK I NEVER KNEW???? THAT SIFFRIN TOLD ISABEAU ABOUT THE BAD TOUCH EVENT?????? IN CANON???? I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WAS A FANON THING BUT THEY ACTUALLY ADDRESS IT IN GAME AND???? ISA'S REACTION HAD ME ON THE FLOOR

siffrin: i kissed you once,,,,

isa:

the words "im being perfectly normal about this" is something i say on a daily basis so i relate to this wholeheartedly

AYO???????? ISA WHEN DID YOU BECOME SO SMOOTH????

this. this image. made my jaw hit the GODDAMN FLOOR. I WAS NOT MENTALLY PREPARED FOR IT AT ALL AND BOTH ME AND MY ROOMMATE S C R E A M E D WHEN WE SAW IT

LIKE???? HOLY FUCK SIF JESUSSSSSSSSSSS CHRIST???? how did isabeau not implode on the spot from that look bro howwwwwwwwwww

AND THEN. AS IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH TO MAKE MY HEART START SOBBING. ISA BLOWS YOU A KISS???? AAAA???

annnnd scene!

i will continue playing to get some of the different loop endings and i totally plan on doing two hats in the future!!! so im not quite done with this game yet i just got impatient in act 4 and i needed the Emotional Catharsis of Act 5

[chronologically-challenged]

2, 9, and 13 for the ask game? ^_^

Isat ask game link!!! Thank you for the ask!!!!

2. Least Favorite Character?

Oooh, my spicy take first.

...Mal du pays.

LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN, I adore them in concept!!!!! I think mdp is a good emotional conclusion to the ghost arc and a good way to show Siffrin losing his resolve at the end of act 5. There was an amazing analysis post about mdp and Siffrin's relationship with their own homesickness as well. However. Ngl. I remember none of mdp's lines. Also, the "someone intimidating your loved ones yelling back they hate you" isn't my favorite trope either.

Idk, mdp did nothing for me. I'm much more of a "darkness parts of your mind sound like sweet nothings" sorta person rather than the intensity of mdp. I'm sorry little homesick fella. Love that you had the fucked up version of the death music though.

9. What would your wish at the Favor tree be?

I am. Limiting the range of this question because otherwise I'd be here all day. I am going to assume that we're in a similar circumstance as the party and we're about to go fight the King, and I'm just a little guy hoping for some favor tomorrow, and don't know the favor tree has actual major reality bending power.

In THAT circumstance, I'd probably wish that we all would survive the next day.

13. Favorite Line?

Don't make me choose between my darlings-

Tbh I could pick nearly any line from the Loop fight tbh. When looking for any one particular line, I nearly cried, so there's that. My darling Loop my beloved, I want to give you the world.

But if not for that, tbh both the act 3 and act 4 versions of Odile's quest just stick with me. In general, Odile's quest is just one of the most fascinating in the game, and provides such a depth to the world. But I REALLY like that quest in particular reveals about Siffrin. Particularly act 4, between the family quest and the sus quest, you get a lot of the reason WHY emotionally Siffrin sticks with the loops and doesn't tell their family what's going on.

(Is it any wonder you crave knowledge? Habits?!?) (If it all keeps happening the exact same way every time, you'll never lose anything, will you? You'll HAVE to remember it all, because you're living it!!!) (Forever living in memories you can't let go of!!!) (You're so pathetic.) (Telling the King to let go?) (You can't even do that. Can't let go of it.) (This perfect play.)

Also it's one of the few family quests where Siffrin thinks mean things about them while not in act 5 aslkdja .

(What a privilege, to be able to think your roots don't inform your identity.)

(chef's kiss) love that for you Sif. Go be a little mean in your head. it's unfair, but also the fact it took this long to be mean is impressive tbh. Also good set up for act 5 alskdjsa.

[octobobble]

Thanks for humoring me :)

When the role swap happens will other character's roles be swapped around or is it only going to be just Click Clack and Inspekta? Also will Click Clack be the villain in the narrative at the end of the story or will it slowly shift from Inspekta to Click Clack and there's a period where Inspekta isn't really doing much because all the butterfly effects set him on a different path?

Oh also are you a fan of In Stars and Time?

1. Will other character’s roles be swapped?

Not quite? It’s a roleswap, but not a roleswap au if that makes sense. Though the other characters do sorta have A Disturbance as things are changed and there’s definitely moments of being like “huh, what was I doing. Something doesn’t feel right.” It’s less everyone’s getting swapped around and more that things keep getting shifted around to the point that everyone’s sorta starting to feel the effects, but no one can really place a finger on it until the wall cracks for Thespius and he’s finally aware of the narrative and therefore has the same sorta dev tool awareness that Click Clack has. Click Clack actually fucking despises the realization of him having been played into a roleswap once it hits him and he’s mentally shinji chair posing about it. It’s not at all planned from the start, either, during the whole story the narrative kinda doesn’t know what the fuck to do about click clack lmao. The Narrative never speaks or shows itself directly, but it’s as much a character as everyone else, so a lot of Break The Narrative is genuinely just click clack getting worse and the narrative being like oughhhhhh fuck my little guy is going crazy uh. Um. Like I cannot emphasize enough that the moment where Thespius gains awareness wasn’t a mastermind chess move it was The Narrative hitting itself with a metal bat in the hopes that maybe he could do something. So yeah hope that helps teehee

2. Have you played In Stars and Time?

I have, i ugly cried during the ending and I kin Mal Du Pays for reasons I will not be getting into. It’s an incredible game and I think people should play it. Sadly it didn’t stick as a fixation for me as strongly as something like GGG has but I love keeping up with fanart and such. isat good.

[speaking-at-the-theater]

act 4

---

wishcraft is sooo cool and the whole detail about the favour tree ritual? im in love. i love rituals in fiction, esp when they have reasons behind them.

"caling your allies family members now? that's a little awkward" "YOURE AWKWARD" literally that one 'no YOURE cringe' meme

---

that "just attack" craft.... the way he's just slowly losing patience, and becoming more and more op compared to everyone else....

--

it should *not* have taken me three tries to beat the king

--

imma keep looping for a bit longer maybe?

nope nvm

---

---

(cries) such symbolismmm

---

THE MUSICCC, the screen flashed red!!!!!!!!

---

---

---

oh......

somehow i get the feeling siffrin didnt have a very good life before this :((( some sort of orphan or run away?? ---

in the floor with mirabelle's room and.... huh, the detail about siffrins coat is interesting.

---

the way siffrin forgets words... or maybe he was never taught them.

i do believe he was some kind of orphan. maybe from that one island from the north?

---

loop seems biased towards siffrin.... that's veryinteresting, i wont lie. i wonder if in some way they might try to turn siff against their friends? --

nooo siffrin dont get overconfident with the looping powers youre soo cool :(((

---

AAAAA BABYYYY

---

EVERYONE IN THIS GAME IS NEURODIVERGENT

-

WE BEAT THE KING HECK YES!

(END OF ACT 2)

[theelliottsmiths]

Have you listened to “Jazz ist Anders (Economy Version)” yet? I highly recommend that version of “Nur einen küss” which is 25% song and 75% Bela and Farin bitching and mocking each other and arguing about whether the song is actually good. 🤣

Okay so, I hadn't listened to more than a couple of them until today because that's not how I consume new music generally. I listened to the songs back to back for full effect and truly, I do love them and it as a concept. Junge is still my favourite, both editions. I don't know enough German to be able to understand without looking everything up so it took a little while but yeah

First off, I love this kind of shit. I have so many weird demos, outtakes and silliness recordings saved from various bands and sometimes I prefer them to the official recordings. It's a lot of fun. I also prefer live recordings to studio recordings usually, sorry to most musicians, which is weird because I don't go to shows?

The economy edition of Lied vom Scheitern is... Sad. Very much sadder than the original song which was a surprise since that's not the impression the concept gave me?

Sidenote relating to Junge (Economy), my favourite thing about German and germans is when theyre speaking English and say things like "I'm going to dye my hairs" like the individual hairs, plural, or the opposite with words like pants. Beautiful. If you do this don't ever change its my favourite.

Am I liveblogging this fucking album? It wasn't intentional. Nür einen Kuss is hilarious, you're right

What is it with these guys and vampires? Way more than average, this vampire content.

I feel called out by Tu das nicht because listen... I do pirate music for the first listen and then if I like it I'll buy it. I don't use streaming services and don't want to risk paying for something I detest. I'm so sorry Rod. He's disappointed in me I'm sure.

Some of my personal favourites:

"Putin komm her - zieh dich aus und halt mich warm, yeah"

All of Lasse redn, it's better than the original

"Brecht euerm Jungen nicht das Herz

Es ist noch nicht zu spät für einen postnatalen Abort"

And

"Obwohl, wär auch blöd, dann wär ich Waise. Ihr könnt weiterlebeeeeeeeeeeeen!"

"death sells"

"Bela: Wir wollen deinen Song nicht auf dem Album, Farin!

Farin: Bitte?

Bela: Diesen Song hier, wir wollen ihn nicht. Ich hab mit Rod gesprochen und der findet das Lied auch nicht lustig, also kommt es nicht aufs Album!

Farin: Nicht...auf...aha, so ist das also

Bela: Ja, so ist das. Kannst jetzt bitte rüber gehen, ich würd gern singen

Farin: Weißt du was? Du Kannst mich mal!!"

"Nämlich ein Schlagzeuger"

"Bela: „Sach mal, ähm.... Sach ma, ick muss mit Dir mal über det eine Problem reden, wat wir schon seit Jahren haben!"

Farin: „Du meinst das Chilenenproblem? Ich will jetzt keine Namen nennen."

Bela: „Det Chilenenproblem?"

Farin: „Det Bassproblem. Ich will jetzt keine Namen nennen."

Bela: „Det chilenische Bassproblem mit dem... Ich will jetzt keene Namen nennen."

Farin: „Dat Rodrigo Gonzales chilenische Bassproblem, ohne dass ick jetzt Namen nennen will."

Bela: „Genau"

Farin: „Ja"

"Bela: „Na? Du, mir geht's einfach total jut. Ick häng hier grad rum, zwischen ???, die Sonne sieht aus, wie von Zille gemalt und da dacht ick, ich ruf mal meinen besten Freund an."" Adorable

Why do all their songs about women sound so... Gay

Nevermind they did it themselves they lean into it so heavily. Rammstein, learn from them.

[hitchell-mope]

(First film. Introduction to the dormitories and the first heist attempt)

Doug: So you got your basic amenities. En-suite. Walk in wardrobe. Entertainment system. On the coffee table are your new phones. Tomorrow you have a free period before your um

Jay: remedial goodness lesson.

Doug: yes. Sorry.

Mal: eh not your fault.

Doug (squeaky voiced with emotion): that’s the first time someone’s said that to me

Evie: yeah ok. Bye bye.

Doug: wait wait wait. Before your lessons tomorrow go to the IT department they’ll set you up to the schools database. Internet apps the cloud. Oh. And though it may be really tempting you might wanna stay off social media for a while. People tend to be cruel

Carlos: eh it’s nothing we can’t handle. We’ve dealt with cruelty before

Doug: pissed off heroes are a whole different breed to

Mal: the villains that raised us?

Doug: uh yeah. So anyway. On a school day you need to be inside you rooms by nine and asleep by twelve preferably

Jay: I can deal with that

Doug: PM not AM

Jay: ah

Doug: on the weekend you can stay up as long as you want provided you are rooms

(Evie shrieks)

Mal (sighing heavily): what now

Evie: these drapes are just darling

Mal: nobody cares but you

Evie: just because you have no taste magenta

(Mal’s eyes start glowing. Jay rushes to intervene. Carlos spins Doug around so he isn’t watching)

Carlos: So The IT department. Do they have a club?

Doug: yeah they meet every Saturday at noon. A buffet lunch is provided.

Carlos: who do I have to sell my soul to so I can join.

Doug: I don’t take souls or firstborns. Just show up and sign the sheet. Oh that reminds me. The other weekend electives are chess club, which I also run and hold immediately after IT club, sports, cookery and library assistance

Carlos: chess club? (Whispering to himself) I love this place

Mal: dibs on the library

Doug: wow. Nobody ever chooses the library. Usually we have to strong arm them into it

Mal: well I like books

Doug (already liking the four): alright then. Remember. Ben and I can help with anything you need. Room service is speed dial 8 on your dormitory phones. Your senior advisor for this term is Abigail Sweet the daughter of the schools doctor Joshua Sweet. Jay Carlos. If you would come with me I’ll show you your room

Carlos (practically giddy): I get to room with Jay?

Doug: yep

(Carlos lets out a happy cackle)

(Later that night. In the guys room)

Evie: ha ha we have a bath you don’t

Mal: they can use ours if they want

Evie: I hate you.

Mal: I’m sorry is that supposed to affect me?

Jay: anyway. I couldn’t get any information out of Doug.

Carlos (playing a video game): yeah. Sorry. My bad. I just really like chess and computers.

Mal: you never need to apologise

Evie: of course. The prodigal son.

Carlos: yeah yeah. I’m perfect you’re inconsequential. Get over it. Anyway Mal. What do we do first

Mal: book?

Jay: are you asking or telling

Mal: telling?

Jay: C could you get the mirror and the book. They’re on the bed that’s already reeking of Evie’s ambergris

Evie: it’s perfume

Jay: what do you think perfume is made of

Mal: eau du monstro

(She and jay high five)

Evie: yeah yeah I smell like whale carcass. Can we move on please?

Jay: sure

Mal: first we should uh. Locate the wand. I guess

Jay: mirror time

Evie: I know I know. Magic mirror/in my hand/where do we find the fairy godmother’s wand stand?

Mal: the...moozum? What’s a moozum?

Carlos: museum Mal.

Mal: ohhhh. Thank you Carlos

Jay: let’s go

(He takes them there in a puff of gold smoke)

(At the museum)

Carlos: oh crap there’s a guard

Jay: oh you’re kidding me

Evie: what?

Jay: I think this might be Mal’s area of expertise. Take a look

(Near the guard is a spindle and spinning wheel)

Mal: ah fuck. Ok let’s see now.

Jay: Mal, I believe it’s your turn

Mal: let’s see let’s see let’s see. Ah here it is. Destroy thine enemy/bring unto them pain/cancel out their heart/to ensure thy reign

(The guard gives a few sputtering breaths. Then nothing)

Evie: way to crap out magenta

Mal: you know what. I think I could swap your brain for his. Or replace it with a grain of sand. Cause that would help so much more than your unneeded comments

Jay: in other words. Shut up Evie. And let Mal do her thing. Any other ideas.

Mal (leafing through the book): not yet. Hmmmmm. Oh! Here it is. Prick the finger/prick it deep/send my enemy off to sleep

(The guard goes to touch the spindle. But hesitates)

Mal (voice quiet but powerful and reverberating through the guards head): touch the spindle. Touch it I say!

(The guards asleep)

Evie: you do sound so much like your mother mag

(Mal, unimpressed, plucks a strand of hair from Evie’s head)

Evie: owuh! What the fuck was that fit?

Mal: grey hair sis. See. Although now two will grow in its place. Like the hydra

Evie (tailing behind the others): at least the hydra had the good sense to be buried under a rock slide

(Once inside)

Carlos: So I’ve dismantled the cameras. And we know where it is. But we don’t know where it is

Mal: good boy. And nope. No we don’t

Jay: hold on

(He closes his eyes and takes and deep breath. He glows gold a second. Then stops)

Jay: down the hall. C’mon

(Halfway through the museum Carlos stops)

Jay: you ok bud

(Carlos starts hyperventilating)

Mal (rushing to him): hey. Hey hey hey hey. Hey. It’s ok what’s wrong

Evie: they’re here. Why are they here. Ooh I’m sorry I ate dinner mother

Mal: what is it-oh fuck

(They’re looking at statues of their parents. Jafar in genie form. Grimhilde as queen. Cruella after the car chase. And Maleficent, green skinned and smoke enveloping her)

Jay: what the. What the FUCK are they doing here

Mal: they’re statues. Wax. I think.

Evie (hissing): that doesn’t make it better!

Mal: hey jay. Could you take Carlos outta here please. I kinda need to be alone for a minute

Jay: sure. C’mon buddy

(He carries Carlos away)

Evie: what do you need a minute for? Oh I think I’m gonna throw up.

Mal (not really paying attention): there’s a bathroom. Up the hall and to the right

(Evie runs off. Mal eyes glow and she starts breathing heavily as emerald green flames lick at her feet then she screams and the flames explode and surround her. Then they stop and she collapses on her hands and knees)

Mal: why are you still looking over my shoulder? You know I won’t fail. So I do not need you looking over my shoulder from HUNDREDS OF MILES AWAY!!!!

(She weeps. Then pulls herself together forgetting that no one can see her. She stalks over to the inscription)

Mal: what the hell?

(This is how “when you’re evil” starts. After the song. Mal is passed out on the flagstone floor. Carlos and jay and kneeling over her. Carlos is worriedly shaking her trying desperately to wake her up)

Carlos (nearing tears): M. M please. Please wake up. Please. I need you to wake up. Jay. Try it again. Please try again

(Jay uses magic to summon water from a nearby drinking fountain and splashes Mal’s face. It doesn’t work. Carlos breaks down in sobs and clings to Jay. This makes Mal wake up)

Mal: what happened? How long was I out for?

(Carlos, still crying, throws his arms around Mal who returns the hug)

Mal: hey, hey buddy it’s ok. I’m ok. Look at me. I’m fine

Carlos (tears streaming down his face): I can’t be alone. I don’t want to be alone

Mal: you’d still have jay. And Evie.

Carlos: it’s not the same

Evie: hey guys I think I found it. Oh god what happened?

Jay: Mal was out cold. We couldn’t wake her

Evie (now cottoning onto the reason why Carlos is crying): oh. But she’s ok now.

Mal: yeah. I am. I must’ve passed out when I burned the room. So why doesn’t it look burnt?

Jay: I fixed it. Covering our tracks.

Mal: take us to the wand then

(Evie teleports them to the stand)

Mal: Carlos. It’s ok if you don’t want to.

Carlos: no. No. I’m fine. I can do it. Umm. Force field. I think. Not exactly weapons grade cause, you know, what is, but I think someone with like low level magic can get through

(They all look at Evie)

Evie: I hate you all

Mal: same. Now go

(Evie heaves a heavy sigh. She passes under the railing. Her hand gets through the force field. Next thing they know she’s thrown backwards and hitting the opposites wall. Then alarm starts)

Mal: great job indigo

Evie: next time YOU CAN DO IT THEN

Carlos (hands over his ears): how about we get out of her then Mal can murder Evie in peace!

Jay: agreed. Come on.

(The run back to the entrance. Carlos shuts off the alarm. Mal puts the guard back to sleep. Jay poofs them back to the boys room)

Evie: that was

Mal: a fucking festival of mediocrity

Carlos: I’m sorry

Mal: you have nothing to feel sorry for. Or you jay. Evie and I on the other hand

Evie: of course it’s somehow my fault

Jay: blaming each other won’t accomplish anything. But come ON Evie. Seriuosly?

Evie: you would’ve done THE SAME THING!

Jay: ya got a point

Carlos: so what do we do now.

Mal: sleep. Then. I guess we go to school.

(Evie groans loudly. Jay winces. Carlos’s face lights up)

(Elsewhere)

Ben: so how did it go

Doug: Carlos signed up for chess and IT club.

Ben: I’ve been meaning to ask. Your technologically illiterate. So

Doug: I gotta learn don’t I

Ben: fair do’s.

Doug: Mal wants to do the library work

Ben (big nervous smile on his face): so they’re settling in well. How do the like their rooms?

Doug: Evie likes the drapes. When I left Carlos was clearing out the mini fridge. And jay is a bit miffed that he has no bath

Ben: good, good and we can fix that

Doug: you know this might actually work. Strangely they seem to like me.

Ben: who wouldn’t like you? You’re amazing

Doug: well. Mal Jay and Carlos like me. I think. Evie looks straight through me.

Ben: you’re a good guy. Give her time. She’ll see

Doug: and that right there is why I’m not letting you say that ever

Ben: why.

Doug: Chad is a “good guy”. The Fanon interpretation of Captain James T Kirk of the starship Enterprise is a “good guy”. Gaston was a “good guy”. If you tell Evie that I’m a “good guy” that’s basically saying I’ll ankle chain her to the stove in shorthand

Ben: huh?

Doug: you don’t watch many romcoms do you?

Ben: only Gilmore Girls

Doug: ...Fanon interpretation of Dean Forester

Ben: OH MY GOD!!!! Oh I’m so sorry

Doug: don’t worry about it. The important thing is they feel welcome.

Ben: yes. We did good today

Doug: yes.

Ben: well. Good night. Unless of course

Doug: captain marvel or infinity war?

Ben: infinity war please

Doug: get it set up I’ll fetch snacks

Ben: yay

(In Belle and Adam’s bedroom)

Adam: I don’t like it. At all.

Belle: well it’s not up to you.

Adam: it should be. If I had my way I’d have raised taxes

Belle: knowing our son he’d tax the rich

(Adam shudders)

Belle: it’s not actually a bad idea. Least I remind you we are French after all

Adam: what’s your point?

Belle: Ben is doing what he believes is right. And I for one will not fault him for that

Adam: oh don’t you worry. Leave the fault finding to me

Belle: you are rather adept at that if nothing else. Get to your bed. I’m going for a walk

(She goes to Ben’s. She peeps into the door way to find Ben on a beanbag stonefaced)

Belle: what’s wrong?

Doug: Loki just copped it

Belle: oh. Um.

Ben: it was sad the first time. But after 18 viewings it’s a tad underwhelming

Belle: ah. How did it go this afternoon?

Ben (brightening up): it went really well.

Belle: that’s good. But don’t stretch yourself too thin ok

Ben: ok mom. Hey. Can I have a tattoo?

Belle: nope

Ben: aww worth a shot. Doug has one

Doug: it’s a birthmark. And it’s on a pick axe that I’ll inherit from my father. Not on me

Belle and Ben: I stand corrected then

Belle: boys when the movie is finished you are to go straight to bed and Doug is to go to his room. Ok

(The boys mumble in agreement)

Belle: good night

Boys: night

(Back on the island)

Grimhilde: oooh close but no cigar

Maleficent: do shut up

Jafar: what the hell did she do?

Maleficent: collapsed. Like a child having a fit

Grimhilde: then the Apple truly does not fall far

Jafar: this is true. You did have a fit

Grimhilde: may have been rage but a fit nonetheless

Maleficent: would you both like to spontaneously combust

(They stay silent)

Maleficent: good. It took sixteen years for my plan to come to fruition. And I can wait again.

Jafar: and what exactly are you planning on doing to them should they succeed?

Maleficent: separate them for good. My daughter becomes the puppet. Your son in a lamp bound to serve you. The girl married off to Westerguard. And the boy chained in his mothers abode.

Grimhilde: I adore those odds.

Jafar: and their magic?

Maleficent: expunged from their being

(Back in the boys room)

Jay: so how’d you wanna do this?

Carlos: I still don’t know why there are two beds. If I’m your roomie shouldn’t there only be one

Jay: as always you are correct C. And I have an idea

Carlos: I’m listening...

Jay: we put our stuff on the bed next to the window. We can unpack after class. And we share the bed next to the walk in wardrobe oof

(Carlos tackles him in a bear hug)

Carlos: nothing changes?

Jay: nothing changes bud

(Meanwhile in the girls room they’re fighting over who gets the bed next to the window. Evie wins by putting her makeup bag down. Mal get her revenge by getting the toilet brush and whacking it on the pillow)

Evie: that was just uncalled for

Mal: smells better then your face junk

Evie: you’re a real class act you know that right?

Mal: yes. Oh by the way. Bags-eye the bathroom from now until we leave

Evie: SHIT!

(Mal cackles)

High School Band AU: Epilogue

“Non, rien de rien. Non, je ne regrette rien. Ni le bien qu'on m'a fait… Ni le mal - tout ça m'est bien égal! Non, rien de rien. Non, je ne regrette rien. C'est payé, balayé, oublié… Je m'en fous du passé!”

“Are you there yet?”

“Yes, why wouldn’t I?”

“I don’t know, you weren’t saying anything, I thought you fell asleep or something… because this is boring.”

“It’s not boring. Relax, MC, you’re gonna nail this audition for sure.”

“You think?”

“Yeah, sure! I mean…  it’s a classic, but it’s not obvious, and I bet nobody is expecting an Asian girl to sing in French.”

“Painfully true. Ugh… I can almost imagine… ‘Oh, the auditions for Miss Saigon are closed, sweetheart…”

Rika laughs, adjusting the camera of her laptop and now you get to see her face in the video chat.

“Oh, and you even look cute now! I thought you would look like shit for stressing over this audition…”

“I feel like shit, if this helps.” You sigh. “I don’t know, Rika… it’s just… maybe I shouldn’t even try…”

“What the hell are you talking about?”

“It’s just… I haven’t been lucky in my last auditions, my mom is being supportive, my father is paying my tuition, but… if I don’t get a role soon, maybe I should…you know, wake up to reality…”

“You’re so dramatic…”

“Well, yeah… finding a job is a real drama.”

“Yeah, but you elevate it to a whole another level! Ugh… sometimes I wonder if you just want some praise, but here I go: MC, sweetie, you’re just a freshman, but you’re going a fucking great college! You barely started, and you can’t use some failed auditions at off-off-off-off-Broadway shows as the standard for your whole career, that hasn’t even started! Just… get a grip, or fuck’s sake!”

You rolls your eyes, Rika always starts cussing you everytime you’re nervous and stressing out. She called you the most horrible things when you were applying to college, only to praise you like you’re some kind of god when you actually made it. She has a weird way of supporting you, but this isn’t exactly a surprise since your whole friendship is weird.

She got back from rehab and videocalled you. Before you could even tell, you were video calling each other almost everyday, only to catch up and tell about the day you girls had. Usually, she would talk about herself, her plans for the future, and even the darkest things like the possibility of a relapse. You would talk about the crazy shenanigans your mom does to make money and your experience as an immigrant. In general, you and Rika would vent to each other about your doubts, struggles and insecurities, only until there would be room for girl talk and happiness.

But it wasn’t too long ago you starts talking about a subject that felt taboo for four years…

“So, how is everybody?”

“I talked to Jumin yesterday. And… uh, Jaehee told me to give you her best.”

“Ahhh, tell her I send my best too when you see her.”

“Yeah, I will. Her girlfriend works in the train station I go to everyday, so I’ll probably bump into her again… oh, have I told you Zen was on the news yesterday?”

“He sent me a pic.” You laugh. “Can’t believe he took that role as an android.”

“Well, you told him to.”

“I said there was no harm in trying, but… guess we’ll see if I was right after the reviews are out… did Yoosung call?”

“He did! But I think he was drunk... he always calls me drunk. Can’t believe he’s living the college dream better than us.”

“Yeah, who would have thought?” you sigh. “I’m so jealous you get to see most of them often…”

“Well, everybody misses you too, if it makes you feel better… which I’m sure it doesn’t.”

“No, it doesn’t…” you lower your gaze, hoping the shitty camera of your laptop won’t catch your gloomy look, especially because talking about the Mystic Messenger crew isn’t that much of a taboo compared to…

“So… have you heard from Saeran?” Ah, yes… him.

“Of course not. I never do. And it’s hard to get a hold of Saeyoung too.”

“Yeah, he’s always abroad…”

“Or maybe he’s avoiding me because of Saeran doesn’t want to talk to me anymore…”

“MC, I don’t think Saeran doesn’t want to see you…”

“Oh yeah? Then why didn’t he call me after filling his duty in the Army? Six months, Rika, I haven’t heard from him in six months!”

“Well, so what do you plan to do? Will you let it go?”

Maybe you should… it’s not like the end of the world if your teenage love is not talking to you… since, you know, you’re not teenagers anymore.

“I… maybe I should…”

But you made a promise.

“I…I don’t know…” you mumble a little. “It’s hard to just… let it go… ou know that, was it easy to just let go of V?”

“Well, I had to make it easy before things got worse between us.”

“Well, I never had a chance to see if things would get worse with Saeran, they never got… bad. They simply never… got, in the first place…”

She smiles softly, you know she’d be patting your shoulder awkwardly if she were here with you.

“Whatever you do, please focus on your audition first.” She says bluntly.

“I will. Thanks, Rika.”

“Thanks? I heard all of your drama, bitch. Next time you better pay attention when I vent about my shit, okay?” you both laugh. “Gotta go, I should sleep a little…”

“Good night, bitch.”

“Have a good day. Then I’ll be off!”

You turn your laptop off, giving a quick look around your room. You have class in one hour, so you should get ready to leave.

In the shower, you sigh… you weren’t this laid back and self-confident when you were in Korea. You were doubtful about lots of things, your talent wasn’t one of them. But now… you question your singing skills a lot.

But it’s not necessarily bad, this is part of growing up, admitting you have flaws and learning to overcome them. Living with your mom made you… humble, mature, more careful… things even our father seemed to admire in you now.

You’re not the best version of you, but this is probably because you aren’t home… yet. Wherever your home is.

“Alabama, Arkansas, I do love my ma and pa… not the way that I do love you…” you hum, letting the water warm up your shoulders.

“Man oh man, you're my best friend! I scream it to the nothingness… There ain't nothing that I need. Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie, chocolate candy, Jesus Christ. Ain't nothing please me more than you…”you keep mumbling as you get dressed.

Your mom left early to work, but she made you breakfast. You eat it fast before grabbing our bag and leaving the building.

“Ahh home, let me come home. Home is wherever I'm with you… Ahh home. Let me go ho-oh-ome. Home is wherever I'm with you…”

You take the subway, giving come coins to some boys doing break dance.

“I'll follow you into the park... Through the jungle through the dark... Girl I never loved one like you...” you chuckle, suddenly remembering that time you sang Barracuda with Saeran.

“Moats and boats and waterfalls. Alley-ways and pay phone calls… I've been everywhere with you.”

You tie the lace of your shoes before leaving the station, stopping by at the cozy restaurant next to the university to get a sandwich. It’s cheaper than lunching at the dining hall of school.

“We laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer night, nothin' new is sweeter than with you… And in the streets you run afree, like it's only you and me, geeze, you're something to see…”

As you get closer to the uni’s entrance, you spot a familiar figure next to the fountain. Red hair, a dorky beige sweater and a weird rocket space backpack.

“Sae-Saeyoung?”

The guy looks at you and smiles. Saeyoung? Is it really him?

“Tsk… you would always brag you could always tell me and that idiot apart…”

Time has passed, he looks different… Saeran looks different…

“Well, you know… I only started telling you twins apart when you dyed your hair. You look the same if your hair doesn’t look like shit anymore…”

He smirks, and you curl your lips, trying not to cry.

“Where have you been?”

“My brother and I were working hard! He was studying to get a scholarship, and I… was raising money to get a visa to America… so I would find you.”

“And you did…”

“I did… so now that I found you…” he gets on his knees. OH. MY. GOD! Is he going to…?

“Saeran…? What…? What are you doing?”

“I’m going to protect you, and love you like you deserve and… hope you’ll love me back as I deserve… as I want to believe I deserve… will you?”

“Of course I will, but… I don’t think we should get married, Saeran… We’re not even 21 yet… and all my money goes to college and…”

“What the hell are you talking about?” he asks, glaring at you.

“Huh? You just got on your knees and started talking about taking care of me… you’re proposing, aren’t you?”

“What? Fuck no! I’m tying your shoe for you, you’re so clumsy, what if you trip somewhere? Good thing I’m here from now on…” you narrow your eyes at him. “You though I was asking you to marry me?”

“N-no! I know we…” he gets up and smiles teasingly. “Ah, you haven’t changed a thing, have you? How did you survive in army with that attitude, you-“

Saeran hugs you. Exactly like he did a long time ago that night next to th baseball pitch, then at the airport… He’s really here with you, you are together, like you promised.

“MC?”

“Yes, Saeran?”

“I think I just got home…”

You press your lips against his. It’s a chaste, yet very needy kiss. Then you cup his cheek as you smile at his flustered face.

“Welcome home.”

It really was “Home” by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, it wsn’t going to be, but when one anon suggested it, I knew it had to be this one :p

And now it’s official, this is the end! Thanks for the ride, guys! This was a truly pleasure, hope you enjoyed this fic as much as I loved doing it <3

[wearethegladiators]

don’t mind me c de la déformation professionnelle de meuf qui taffe sur des régimes autoritaires all day long

PTN there’s so much things i want to ramble about BUT i don’t have time BUT i’ve been kept awake by random thoughts about the mf rebellion and???? needed to share even tho that’s probably messed-up as fuck mdrrrr, you know i study political science right (ptn puis jsuis tellement fumée par la politique et LA NON ALLIANCE DES GAUCHES que jsuis convaincue que les êtres humains même d’accord entre eux peuvent pas s’empêcher de se bouffer/se diviser so ANYWAY) (SORRY PTN)

  tant qu’on est dans le random l’autre jour je suis tombée sur cette photo de rilès (https://www.instagram.com/p/B0TZgHqIe4v/) et j’ai fait : WESH MAIS C NATHAN LA VERITE. et encore plus en stalkant. et encore plus en stalkant son compte à lui (y a des gens qui commentent ‘’le gars c’est poséidon’’ sous ses photos SORRY BITCH). (et les bagues et le sang tout le temps et le corps et le charisme et les cheveux (NATHAN WITH AN AFRO) et je eurffff jsp y a  un truc je trouve) anyway il a une MOUSTACHE et il sourit comme un gamin et il est tt le temps en baskets et c’est hyper random mais ça me hante depuis des jours, voilà je vais mieux (AH MAIS WAIT IL A NOTRE AGE JSUIS TELLEMENT CHOQUEE????????? je le mettais au moins à 25 ans et easy fin de vingtaine jsuis déphasée comme jaja)

(quand wyn découvrira ses origines natives: https://www.instagram.com/p/ByIon9IJAI_/) (clem out)

(mdr nathan & adrian https://www.instagram.com/p/BjfPWm4ACtt/) (promis j’arrête cette fois hihi)

(affiche de propagande de la rébellion tmtc https://www.instagram.com/p/BVSRUr5liiI/  https://www.instagram.com/p/BXs59slDJxC/)

  anyway : des rebelles pacifistes!! we need that!! lily needs that

non mais en vrai je me disais que tous les ex membres de l’ordre du phénix avaient pas pu rejoindre la rébellion ?? genre rémus lupin, ces gens ultra-idéalistes/poufsouffle là. alors je sais qu’il y en a bcp qui se sont juste barrés, mais mon rémus ?? enfin jsp mais la rébellion a quand même un peu une image de jeunes loups vénères alors que l’ordre c’étaient des vieux hommes sages si sages qu’ils en sont morts, mdr

et jpensais à excidium

et jme suis emballée

et là j’ai pensé à la Transnational Alliance for Restoration of Peace and Democracy (buckle up kids jme faisais chier je suis partie loin)

la TAFROPAD (ui), c’est un réseau d’idéalistes et d’activistes (tout ce qu’on veut : des nationalistes irlandais (my obsession ptn yes you’ll see), des défenseurs des droits des créatures magiques, des militants antiracistes, WHATEVS). en tous cas tous souscrivent à des méthodes de résistance non-violente. le groupe est né de la fusion d’une association bien implantée dans la société sorcière (style charité pour les blessés de guerre, un truc pseudo innocent), d’anciens membres du phénix qui jusque-là faisaient pas de bruit, et de déserteurs de la muggleborn resistance (à cause du bullshit de lily tmtc) et de la rébellion (quand nathan devient un peu foufou tmtc²). donc ils sont tout récents, 2003 style (ils existaient avant, mais ils étaient genre 2 donc pas trop officiel quoi).  ils sont quand même considérés radicaux parce qu’ils sont pro-démocratie et que bitch les sorciers anglais connaissent pas ça. et ils sont quand même badass parce que c’est la branche de la résistance la plus sûre pour quitter le pays, avoir des faux papiers, etc. (parce qu’ils étaient bien implantés socialement, vivent dans la clandestinité depuis un bye, bénéficient du réseau de l’ordre qui en vrai aurait pu être international ?? genre ils ont dû bosser avec le gouvernement après la chute n°1 de voldy, et aussi parce qu’il y a pas mal d’anciens membres du gouvernement). puis c’est une alliance TRANSNATIONALE, qui existe donc dans d’autres pays, donc ils ont des connaissances à l’ETRANGER. just saying. anyway si rémus est toujours en vie he’s the man. et ce qui m’a donné l’idée c’est une vidéo maradeurs avec alicia vikander en marlene mckinnon qui faisait un discours vénère pour casser le cercle de vengeance/mettre fin à la guerre/etc. etc. bref jveux une alicia vikander en boss. peut-être en susan bones ??? sorry i’m a sucker pour les reboots de persos des livres ptn

  anyway je réfléchissais aussi à la muggleborn resistance, jsais plus ce que tu disais à ce sujet. j’aime bien l’idée que les décisions soient votées démocratiquement et qu’il y ait pas vraiment de leaders, à part peut-être genre 3 personnes qui servent de représentants si besoin (dont lily tmtc) (et tous rescapés de l’évasion du mudblood camp là). bref pourrait y avoir des ramifications là aussi, avec des gens pas trop contents de la secte/mafia irlandaise de lils, mais en même temps c’est elle qui fournit les ingénieur.e.s donc on la ferme HEIN

(bref lily jbosse sur son redemption arc because SHE’S A GOOD GUY (je regardais des vidéos hufflepuff pride aussi et ptn elle est si poufsouffle sans déconner), et à un moment elle va faire la connerie de trop et ça part en ‘’BITCH I’M OUT’’, la meuf devient un électron libre et zone entre les 3 ‘’poches’’ de résistance, elle assume plus de responsabilités. fin elle gère plus les gens quoi. elle court juste après nathan le feu follet et elle pourrait faire des bails genre organiser un rapprochement avec la TAFROPAD ?? OUVRIR LA RESISTANCE A L’INTERNATIONAL?? idk but let her be good pls)

  ptn puis après jme disais que carmen et wynona elles sont trop badass mais qu’elles avaient pas pu être des terroristes TOUTES SEULES. et qu’ils devaient y avoir des poches d’extrémistes aussi. et jme suis encore emportée :’( je pense que la plupart c’est juste des tous petits groupes de personnes presque ad hoc parce que y a le risque de se faire massacrer à tout moment, mais j’ai quand même pensé à 4 groupes un peu côté (MDR JSUIS SI DESOLEE DON’T MIND ME)

les pussy riots (BITCH) : ‘’du nom d’un groupe de musique punk ayant d’abord sévi en Europe de l’Est avant de répandre son idéologie plus au Nord, avec notamment des actions coup-de-poing anti-Durmstrang dès 1996-7. Un groupuscule inspiré de ces actions a pris forme au Royaume-Uni courant 1998, et a donc repris l’étendard. Les Pussy Riots sont exclusivement des femmes ; on y a vu passer plusieurs anciennes Harpies de Holyhead, une chanteuse des Bizzar’ Sisters, une ancienne cheffe la rébellion (wink) ou encore une éleveuse de dragons (double wink). Le groupe est quasiment éteint depuis une purge gouvernementale sans précédent, et n’a plus mené d’action spectaculaire (style attentat) depuis début 2002.’’  

anarchy in the UK : ‘’faction ultra-radicale de nés-moldus, cracmols et associés, prônant le génocide des sang-purs et, plus globalement, des sorciers :’). Ils surfent plutôt sur le pan idéologique de la vague, mais ont commis quelques coups d’ampleur au cours des 5 dernières années. Leur QG se situe dans le monde moldu, où la plupart d’entre eux réside et vive. Certains occupent encore un emploi moldu lambda, mais beaucoup ont tout abandonné pour la cause. La mouvance reste cependant largement à l’état de groupuscule. Potentielle rhétorique religieuse/sataniste derrière tout ça ??’’ (déso je fais de la théologie ptn) (et du coup ils auraient pu tenter d’approcher lily en sentant la dérive venir mais mdrrr je anyway don’t mind me j’ai dit) ; des bons gars qui auraient pu tenter de pratiquer des exorcismes sur des prisonniers sorciers pro-régime.

la celtic coalition against pure bullshit (WHAT DID I JUST SAY) (I JUST LOVE MY CELTIC PEOPLE OK) : ‘’existe depuis la première guerre sorcière, et a connu quelques heures de gloire avec sa résurgence [fin 1997], notamment portée par les Macmillan. Une guerre fratricide a poussé ceux-ci à rejoindre la rébellion (suivis par plusieurs de leurs disciplines, dont un certain Fury), ce qui a conduit la coalition à revoir ses ambitions à la baisse et à se relocaliser en Irlande. Suite à la dissolution de l’Ordre du Phénix, Seamus Finnigan (<3333) en a été un membre prolifique faute de rejoindre la Rébellion. L’association a aujourd’hui presque complètement disparu, la plupart de ses membres s’étant rassemblé soit autour des Macmillan ou de Lilliana O’Heimhin (krkr). L’élan nationaliste ressurgit parfois, mais rarement sous la forme des spectaculaires attentats orchestrés avant les années 2000. ‘’

LA TERREUR (en français et majuscules dans le texte) : ‘’un des groupes les plus fameux de la mouvance anarchiste/terroriste. Mouvement national composé de cellules allant de 3 à 50 personnes, LA TERREUR est derrière la plupart des attentats de masse de ces 6 dernières années (et on leur a de toute manière souvent attribué les atrocités commises par le gouvernement contre sa propre population). Le gouvernement a tenté d’insinuer depuis des années que le groupe est une création étrangère pour déstabiliser le pays, et a souvent inventé (?) des liens entre celui-ci et la Rébellion pour décrédibiliser cette dernière. La vaste majorité des résistants radicaux est passée par LA TERREUR à un moment ou à un autre. Mouvement extrémiste d’un point de vue politique également, l’association prône la mise à mort des dirigeants actuels et la mise en place autoritaire d’une démocratie participative. Pour cette raison, plusieurs de ces membres ont récemment déserté au profit de la TAF (preuve que la radicalité est un spectre, ou une opinion). Elle connait également des soutiens à l’étranger, mais comme toutes les mouvances extrémistes, est principalement ad hoc et sans cesse au risque d’être annihilée complètement. ‘’ 

de base jvoulais juste penser à un groupe un peu connu d’anarchos pis comme d’hab j’ai perdu le contrôle tsé

  brrrref like i said don’t mind me (en plus c’est long as fuck) this is just my brain panicking at the thought of the rentrée

aussi like i said je m’étais inscrit sur un forum hp avec une partie du staff d’excidium et l’univers était vachement travaillé avec pleins de ramifications incroyables et i guess que ça a eu un impact néfaste sur moi mdrrrr (wola par contre j’ai bloqué de ouf sur l’histoire faut que je me réinscrive ANYWAY)

peace out homies déso de m’enflammer continuellement et see you bientôt pour un post plus canon et surtout plus cohérent mdr <3333

Bungou Stray Dogs: European Ability Users HC Part 1

|| Credits go to @deyanirasan​ for having me write this because otherwise it would have remained in a state of internal musings that made me crack up in laughter out of the blue and scare people around me shitless. I recently fell into the BSD world courtesy of my friend mentioned above and after finishing season 2, I started thinking about the European ability users and how they would work together in whatever organizations they’d be part of. After I started writing, it kind of escalated quickly :)) So here’s my HCs about the whole affair. ||

Europe is big, full of countries that throw shade on one another and have grudge lists that last for miles without end. Therefore, it makes sense that although the members in European organizations would be of different nationalities, they'd probably hate each other just on principle. But even so, their leaders have to make them work together somehow, right? So what better way to do so than by pairing them together not just by abilities, but also by sheer grudge levels.

So you've got the French and the German. There’s Dumas on one side being all flamboyant and charming, using a god damn real sword from the 1600s cuz why the heck not - Alexandre what effing museum did you pilfer it from again? His ability, Les inséparables, makes good use of said sword. He's paired up with Goethe who's all sour faced and grim and his ability looks like it is allowing him to summon the effing devil itself. Everyone's sort of scared shitless of Goethe, but it doesn't faze Dumas at all because he saw the guy fall in a bloody river when he stumbled over a tree root.

But then the French and the English also God damn hate each other and haven't been able to let bygones be bygones for bloody centuries...  the rest of Europe is annoyed. Guys it's been centuries get over yourself. 

So it goes like this...  there's Jane Austen who's all prim and proper and always carries a book with herself wherever she goes and she's fine by herself really, she has no need for a partner why ever would she need one? Her ability, Pride and Prejudice, is a little bit of offense and a little bit of defense and a lot of high level sarcasm aimed like a scalpel at her enemies leaving them blubbering fools spilling all their secrets just because of her words alone. So she says heck no when she's paired with Charles Baudelaire because the man is dourer than an English rainy season and she does not need a partner, thank you very much. But it works in a way, because they understand each other's space and convey what they need in a few words. There's no excess to them, no surplus of simpering pleasantries and if she's honest to herself his Fleurs du Mal ability is a thing of beauty. 

Greece and Italy sort of migrate together while trying to escape the lunacy of the others. A low maintenance team that actually works, the two are as different as it comes, but when things get real their dynamic leaves their enemies running for cover.  Nikos Kazantzakis’s ability is Zorba, a dance based defensive ability, that makes everyone and their mother mock its use, but nobody know better than his partner how it can definitely save lives in a pinch. He's lazy but he'll search the whole city he currently finds himself in for the perfect Greek restaurant to serve him gyros. He always brings some for the others as well so no matter what he does, they can't stand mad at him for long ( although he always borrows money from them and never pays them back despite saying he will simply because her forgets ). He loves sitting under the sun and simply relaxing whenever he can. 

His partner is Giovanni Boccaccio whose ability is The Decameron, a curious ability that changes every time he uses it ( rumors have it that it can change up to 100 times). He's always buying gelato even if they're in mother fucking Russia in winter if he can find the place to do so and he can cook the most divine pizza in the world.  Unlike some of the others he was actually happy when he was assigned a partner, because working alone is boring and anyway he needs someone whose ear he can talk off. He's over the top and eccentric and utterly ridiculous at times, but he'll go to hell and back to protect his partner. He and Dumas get in fashion contest together and the Brits and the German just leave altogether when it happens because it's too damn childish for them. He has the most amazing collection of shoes in the world, but never uses them, preferring to go for Roman sandals.  

Sweden and Norway. There's not much question when it comes to pairing these two, it's natural and everyone expects it to work. However they never imagined how well it will actually work. Black and white, dark and light, the two wield abilities that are as opposed as they are similar, but the sheer sight of the Swedish-Norwegian duo strikes fear in anyone who crosses their path. Selma Lagerlöf comes as serious and quiet, reserved and a bit shy, with an odd little smile on her face whenever she sees flocks of birds going towards the warm countries. She dresses in demure garb and never stands out. It's easy to dismiss her and she counts on it. By the time you realize the danger she possesses already you are swarmed, pearly white, knife sharp feathers hitting every vital point in your body, the shriek of birds making you go deaf.  

The one that stands out of the duo is Anne Holt, a charismatic and confident woman always dressed in a policewoman's garb ( whether it is real or not remains up to debate ). There's a chill in the woman's eyes, a sharp glint to her smile and by the time she makes her appearance any chance of escape is out. Her ability, Blind Gudinne, submerges everything in pitch black night, not a single ray of light piercing the oppressing darkness. The only ones able to see remain herself and her partner. Offense and defense in a deadly duo, the reason the most unassuming of the partnerships is the one with the most successful hits under their belt.
