this has probably been said before but you know what kills me about aftg
you have renee right. her whole backstory revolves around being a "reborn", and her two names (besides their religious roots) literally mean "dedicated to the festivity of birth" and "reborn", plus the sheer fact that she goes by the middle one shows how she chooses her "second life" over who she was etc etc
and then you have just. "andrew"
#nora literally opened a popular baby names list and pointed her finger to a random line#he is overall just A Dude™ as everyone says#or maybe I'm just dumb and missing some deep analysis#hes also supposed to be one of the main guys so#all for the game#aftg#renee walker#andrew minyard#the foxhole court

If the Grady family ever met the Nublar Six Five, how would they interact? Who would really vibe with each other, who wouldn’t?.
maisie being the closest to their age means I think she’d get along with them the best. she has a pretty similar personality to brooklyn and yaz so they’d either mesh very well or clash over it. I lean towards get along pretty well. sammy would be a little overwhelming at first but sammy is also the most insistent that she break out of her shell with the group. very much giving “hey she’s just like you were yaz!”. darius and her would have a very chill dynamic where they understand each other and could probably problem solve their way out of any situation. ben? they’re chill. but kenji is who is gonna have to grow on her the most. early seasons kenji is going to drive her crazy but later season kenji might grow on her. she’s going to find him annoying and he’s going to see her as quiet and broody. they’re going to be have to trapped in an escape room together before they become real friends.
the hidden adventure episode probably had the right idea in saying that yeah JWCC darius would love a dude who worked directly with velociraptors. maybe not JWCT darius who is being hunted for sport, but JWCC darius would be begging for velociraptor infodumps. what were their interactions with each other like? did they have biome preferences? what types of calls could they make with each other? he wouldn’t be asking owen about his day he’d be going straight to “did they have different sounding voices?? how many words did they know?? what types of enrichment were they given??”
owen overall is going to be a much easier sell to the kids than claire. yasmina is going to make fun of him the moment he says “alpha”, brings up motorcycles, or does the hand thing. the only way he is winning her over is if he shows his #vulnerable side over the dinosaurs or his family. basically she isn’t going to like him until she’s given a reason to believe he isn’t some weird emotionally repressed redneck. and speaking of rednecks, owen is semi-canonically from the south so that’s winning points with sammy. they probably share stories about cow tipping and everyone else goes “what the fuck does that mean”.
he’d get on with ben and brooklyn fine but kenji has a habit of annoying most people so im inclined to believe he’ll be considered a “little shit” type kid. pre-fk owen and early seasons kenji would require intensive care to get along 1v1 but after that then they have potential. now that owen has experienced #Fatherhood he’ll be more inclined to make an effort to reach out to troubled teen kenji™. it will have the same vibes as a school guidance councilor and class clown where the kid says the councilor is soooo lame but still asks for a hug at graduation.
like I said above, claire is going to be the hardest sell for all of them. she is Miss Jurassic World in the flesh. they’re not going to trust her at all. but she feels really bad about the whole incident so she’s going to do her best to pay off any therapy bills or travel expenses for the families.
kenji is the only she feels the most guilt towards because she actually knows him from his dad. on the island, he annoyed her (he was objectively very annoying) but now that she’s reformed she just feels bad because he was probably just acting out because his family dgaf. kenji initially doesn’t trust her even more because she ran in the same circles as his dad. but he also recognizes how much she’s changed since then and it makes him kind of upset because his dad wouldn’t do half the things she did for maisie. they have a very complex dynamic where claire feels indebted to him for everything that’s happened (with both the island and his neglectful dad) and he has to work through a lot of daddy issues whenever they interact. they get each other in a nuanced way but it’ll keep the relationship strained for a long time.
sammy is the most willing to give her a chance because she wants to believe that someone like claire can change. and claire is going to try her hardest with that chance to prove she wants to mend things however she can. for a while, sammy is going to be the only one really holding conversation with her but the others are kind of using that to gage if they want to take a chance on her too.
darius will be the next person to take that leap of faith cause she does seem like she’s putting in an effort. she’s a full blown activist and mother now after all. claire appreciates them both immensely and has probably cried at least once over winning them over. they have a lot of similar moral stances post-fk so there’d be a very easy dynamic. she values everything about her park a lot more and he’s happy to talk with her about it. she’s got a collection of anecdotes about the dinosaurs and their handlers and he appreciates what she shares.
yas may always be a little weary of her but her knack for terrorism is going to appeal to ben the arsonist and brooklyn the true crime detective. she’s got so many leads about lockwood manor for brooklyn to chase down. she may not totally love claire but she does respect her. as for ben, i think if anyone was going to commit burglary it would be them. she would refuse to “encourage” his behavior (because she wants to at least pretend she’s a responsible adult) but if it happens then it happens okay! they’re as bad as each other and shouldn’t be left alone
weeew that was a lot. loved getting this ask

for laishuro college au drabble requests... maybe the squad™ goes to an escape room or a haunted house? i feel like there could be some silly shenanigans there. like toshiro getting jumpscared and jumping into laios' arms but also maybe laios getting scared by some guy chasing him (because escape rooms sometimes have like those story scenarios? i think) and toshiro just calmly using his #martial arts skills to defend laios ...
i say the squad™ because i enjoy them hanging out sm in high society ^v^ totally fine if ur not up for it tho ahahs
oh i love this idea. i went with haunted house because i wanted a fun excuse to dress everyone up. fic is cross-posted to ao3, but you can read it under the cut!
Laios had the car parked in front of Marcille and Falin’s building. Him and Toshiro waited.
“When does the event start again?” Toshiro asked.
“Uh…” Laios looked down at his phone. “Fifteen minutes ago.”
“Oh dear, we’re late then.”
“They’ll come out!”
Judging by Laios’ incredible patience, Toshiro had nothing to worry about. They were meeting Kabru, Mithrun, Kiki, Namari, Senshi, and Chilchuck at the scream park, because Laios wanted them all to do something for Halloween together.
It’s the thirtieth of October, so it wasn’t even the day of Halloween — but that was because they had busy schedules on Halloween day. The joys of being an adult.
Falin and Marcille came running out the front door, rushing over to the car. They knocked on the window, and Laios unlocked the door for them to climb in the backseat.
“Sorry!” Falin said, bringing something else in the car with her. It was an axe.
“Patrick Bateman?” Toshiro asked, looking back at Falin’s bloody suit.
“Yeah!” Falin beamed. “Marcille was helping me with the makeup.” Marcille on the other hand, dressed up as Margot Robbie’s Barbie. A stark contrast of their personalities tonight.
“Chilchuck said if we don’t get there in the next hour they’re gonna leave without us,” Marcille said. “Drive!” She hissed.
“Jeez, okay!” Laios started up the car.
When they reached the scream park, it was crowded with university students and older adults in costumes. They searched for their friends, finding them in the main area.
“What’s everyone dressed up as again?” Toshiro questioned.
“Uh… I think Senshi’s Kratos, Chilchuck, I’m not sure if he dressed up,” Falin explained. “Namari’s Jessie and Kiki’s Catwoman.”
“Kabru and Mithrun are Pavitr and Gwen,” Laios said.
“Then I think they’re right over there,” Marcille pointed at a familiar group huddled in front of a gargoyle statue.
She was right, because when Kabru spotted them he went, “hey bitches!”
“Yeah that’s Kabru,” Toshiro said with a snort. Upon meeting up, Namari and Kabru wolf-whistled at the couples.
“If it isn’t Laios S. Kennedy and Toshiro Wong!” Namari hollered. “Damn, you guys look good!”
“Thanks!” Laios chirped, and Toshiro blushed, giving a quieter, meek “thank you” to their compliments.
“Aww, Chil, you dressed up!” Marcille gushed at his Mario costume. “That’s so cute!”
“It’s minimal effort,” Chilchuck grumbled. He was right. He just had on a red shirt with overalls, a brown cap, and a red cap with an M drawn on it with a white marker. “My daughters dressed me up. They forced me to.”
“Alright! Now that everyone’s here!” Laios clapped his hands. “Are we ready to get scared?!”
They chorused in agreement, except for Toshiro, who was shifting in discomfort when they joined the growing line of eager guests.
It was fast-moving, because next thing Toshiro knew the grim reaper dude at the door went “have fun,” welcoming them inside. He shuffled closer to Laios, unconsciously holding on to him when they progressed through the house.
This place wasted no time with the scares, jumping out at them at every corner. Kabru and Namari were making jokes. Kiki on the other hand, clung to Namari, probably to boost Namari’s ego from her overexaggerated reactions.
Chilchuck pretended he wasn’t disturbed by the elaborate detail on the costumes, but he’d grab Senshi’s arm every now and then. Marcille couldn’t peel herself away from Falin’s side even if she tried.
Mithrun had a straight-face the entire time, it was hard to tell if they were enjoying themselves, until the gang's screeching made them giggle, holding onto Kabru. Toshiro wondered if he and Marcille were the only ones genuinely terrified.
“Babe,” Laios said, moving on to the next room. “You’re gonna break my arm at this rate.”
“Huh?” Toshiro noticed he was clinging to Laios with a strong grip, practically hiding behind his shoulder. “Sorry…”
“Do you not like haunted houses?” Laios asked with a snort. “The monsters here are crazy scary, but they’re not real, y’know. I wish they were. Are they too spooky for you?”
“Such establishments don’t bode too well for me, Laios,” Toshiro mumbled. “I’m not exactly a fan of horror mo—AH!” A masked man wielding a chainsaw popped out of a shadowed corner.
“Oh hell no!” Kabru’s voice boomed, everyone scrambled to the next set, being chased by the masked man until they lost him, breaking out into hysterical laughter.
“Toshiro, your screams are so cute!” Laios said, giggling. Toshiro punched his shoulder, panting. He thought he was going to die back there.
There were more strange creatures lurking in the corners the more they progressed into the haunted attraction, waiting for the opportunity to spook passing guests. Marcille shrieked that she nearly peed, causing them to laugh, and that was the one time she and Toshiro came to a mutual understanding.
Huddled together, the silence in the dark, hazy room would be interrupted by a growl or a shrill voice echoing in the air, causing them to jump and bump into each other like cartoon characters.
Then, a sudden fart ripped through the air.
“Did somebody just fucking fart?” Namari asked with a grimace.
Awkward silence, before Laios shyly confessed. “Sorry. I got tense for a second.”
The group’s faces twisted in disgust at the smell, scolding him. “I said I was sorry!”
“Relax, son,” Senshi chuckled. “You’re in good company.”
“What the fuck did you eat, man?” Chilchuck said, scrunching up his nose. “That shit stinks.”
“Philly cheesesteak,” Laios replied.
“Alright girlies, let’s keep going!” Kabru said, guiding them across the set. “No pussying out!”
Whenever Laios wandered too far, Toshiro followed after him like a deer in the headlights. It was hard to see, the lights always flickering. If he strayed too far from the crowd he was afraid he’d bump into another fake body bag, or a Frankenstein bursting from a coffin and scaring him into cardiac arrest.
“Nice costume!” Laios complimented one of the actors, dressed as some sort of freakish ghoul. They were at a dead end. “Do you guys know where the other room is? I think we’re lost.”
“GRAH!” The actor screamed at them, Toshiro squeaked, but Laios was unfazed.
“GRAH!” Laios shouted back, and he actually spooked the actor in return.
“Holy fuck,” the actor gawked. “Scared the shit outta me, man.”
“Laios, they’re not supposed to talk to you!” Toshiro hissed, smacking his arm and dragging him in the other direction, apologizing to the poor actor. “I think everyone went over there.” If Laios stopped and talked to every single actor (and animatronic, as he couldn’t tell the difference) in every set, they would never make it out of the house, he got distracted too easily, rambling to Toshiro about the intricate monster SFX details that fascinated him, and Toshiro was desperately trying not to pee his pants.
“Guys?!” Marcille called out into the eerie mist surrounding the house. “Where’d you go?!”
“Easy girl, we’re right here, not dead yet.” Kabru said, making Marcille sigh with relief. In the next set, there was a staged fight between a woman and a werewolf, mimicking a final girl scene in a horror movie. With the way she pounced on the creature and started stabbing at its chest with a steak knife looked real, causing Kabru to say, “he need some milk!” laughter erupting from the group at his comment.
Toshiro had to double-check if the poor guy was alive and still breathing. She just kept on stabbing him.
“Hurry it up back there!” Namari barked at Laios and Toshiro, lingering behind everyone else. Laios gave a sheepish apology, finding their way back to the gang. Toshiro’s gloved palm was sweaty, holding Laios’ the whole time, squeezing every now and then so they wouldn’t slip away from each other.
So far, the only thing that actually scared Laios was a part-cephalopod and part-man creature wielding multiple knives. The costume was so ridiculous that it made Toshiro laugh when they booked it so fast across the house, passing everyone else getting jerked around by the actors from wall to wall.
When they emerged from the house, Toshiro was laughing so hard he needed a moment to catch his breath, face red and buried into Laios’ chest.
“Out of all the monsters we saw in there,” he wheezed, holding onto Laios’ stupidly tight shirt and suspenders. “A-An octopus man is what frightened you?”
“I don’t like them!” Laios whined, tears pricking at his eyes from how spooked he was. “They’re so slimy and scary! And he had knives on his tentacles!”
“I’m sorry—” Toshiro broke out into another fit of giggles, the rest of the gang exiting the house in pairs. “That is utterly hilarious. I thought nothing scared you.”
“I admit, that one got me good,” Laios said, smiling again. The others were discussing how fun the house was, decidedly hungry, good thing Senshi brought along a full-course meal to feed everyone. “What about you?” He asked curiously.
“It was… highly disturbing,” Toshiro said, being honest. “But I had a lot of fun.” Laios’ face lit up at the confession, especially when Toshiro pecked him on the check, wrapping his arm around Laios. “Thank you, for protecting me.”
Laios froze, his face slowly turning redder than a tomato at Toshiro’s kind words. “Buh,” he stammered, completely incoherent and flustered. “Wuh. Huh. Uh. I. Uh. N—N-No p-problem…”
Laughing, Toshiro hauled his blubbering, blushing boyfriend over to follow the rest of the group to the canteen.
Marcille asked if Toshiro had broken Laios as they got seated at a large table, making the whole table cackle loudly.

Rank every badass 🔥 😎 1980s jacket 🧥 that Graham "Gray Gray Bae" Chapman wore in the 1980s out of 10 and give reasons why please?
Honorable mentions: baggy blazer and red sport jacket.
Don't really feel any certain way about these. I think they look nice on Graham of course but that's about it.
---------------------------------------------------------
6. This stripy and colorful jacket.
Okay I want to like this jacket, I really do. I think it's nice but like I can't stop associating it with the rally tee from Animal Crossing (also pictured above lol). Send help.
---------------------------------------------------------
5. This simple windbreaker
I wish I had better photos for this one, sorry. I think that photo on the top right is the same jacket? (not for sure). Anywho, this is a simple jacket but I think the red cuffs around the elbows look neat.
---------------------------------------------------------
4. This cool 80s biker-ish(?) jacket seen here
I like this one a lot design-wise. The collar is dope and I think the maroon accent lines divide the black/blue in a way that makes for a nice overall jacket profile. Kind of a shiny material, probably leather? Simple and clean design but it's also pretty safe. I get kind of just a normal biker jacket vibe from this one (yes I'm aware the zipper design doesn't exactly line up with that style but I don't know how else to classify the style).
---------------------------------------------------------
3. This cool puffy blue/red combo jacket!!
He pulls it off because he's never *not* slaying, but if I saw this one on someone else, I don't think I would be as crazy about it. I like the baby blue quilty-padded thing that's going on here more than the red sleeves, they do clash a lot. It works though. Very 80s, lol.
---------------------------------------------------------
2. This dapper blazer ~
OKAY HEAR ME OUT I know this is a suit jacket, but, like, it fits him so well!! Very classy imo. Props to the tailor that fit him for this, or himself, or whoever is responsible for getting it to sit just like that on him (high-key looks so good). Especially for a blazer in the 80s (which is saying a lot, blazers were being massacred back then, oof).
✅ No egregious 80s shoulder pads (check)
✅ No teeny-tiny thin or extremely large lapels that engulf the entire jacket (check)
✅ Not some weird color/pattern that will give you epilepsy when you look at it for more than one second (check)
---------------------------------------------------------
🟩🟨 The JACKET™🟥🟦 (obvious #1 lol)
Dude I love this one so much, it's so *him*. Colors are great. What a snazzy fit, the blue collar/buttons/cuffs - it's just cool. I wish I had a jacket like this :V everyone knew this would be #1, right!? It's way too iconic not to be, haha.
Thanks for the ask, Yonder! ❤️ 💚 💛 💙

GET TO KNOW YOUR ADMIN !!
name: Boo! pronouns: She/They (no preference, i like both :3) preferred comms: tumblr ims mostly! if we mesh well+spoken ooc a lot we can chat on discord too :) i uuh do tend to forget to check my discord messages outside of my webhooks however names of muse: Ophelia, Doc, Copycat and Father Necrosis rn! A few ✨secret-menu✨ muses/npc’s as well
experience in RP: been rp’ing since i was 13 so bout 14 yrs exp rn! (i say 10+ in my rules tho cause that’s one less number i have to change each birthday)— most of my experiences have been w/ a close knit group of buds that soon turned into 1+1 rp’ing with a bestie im still VERY close with :3c
i dabbled in online rp’ing around eeeeeehhh 2015ish but i certainly wasnt putting myself out there like i am now sdfsdfg
best experiences: the entirety of this blog tbh. a few bumps in the road and learning curves to get back into the groove of things, but ultimately i feel like a carved out a really excellent and chill lil’ corner on this site :”) special shoutouts to some really INCREDIBLE partners and buds that make rp’ing on here beyond delightful:
@pzfr is a phenomenal writer, a beyond thoughtful rp partner and perhaps a bit too powerful of a creative— personally if some horrific yet comedic demise should befall me then i trust full custody of doc & ophelia to him 100% HE GETS IT (don’t u worry i’ll live forever tho). For real though, there's such genuine love in the way he works with the genres that inspire him as well as with writing as a whole! @5mind GAAAARLIIIIIIIC. we continuously cook up dubious foods in the dms; our plots are forebodingly diabolical (affectionate) and [covering garlic's ears] i still plan to consume their brain for power. he’s got THE most creative and inspired never before seen characters on this side of the universe that i adore so so so much and tbh if you aren’t following her like…….bro be fr with me rn like why @riiese Mark’s writing legitimately inspires me. They are THE voice master dude. The way they weave words together feels right out of a fairytale with this whimsical magic to it that gets me lost in the moment!!! i can’t help but get swept up in their beautiful prose!!! @dynamoprotocol BRO lowkey i remember being shocked when I saw he followed me. From the writing, the care to detail, the art, Clarissa/Chance’s development, the worldbuilding, AND he’s CHILL AS FUCK??? and you wanna follow ME dude??? for real though, i cant sing enough high praises!! @natterghast i stumbled upon her by chance and sooooooo happy i did <33 their ocs absolutely captivated me, each one has this cozy cosmic horror vibe that im? obsessed with?? AND THE WAY SHE WRITES IS SO GORGEOUS AND FULL OF MEANING AND CARE THEY PUT IN AND [wrattling the bars in my enclosure]
there are so many more i can shout out but i will have to cap it here since this post has gotten ... so long and i am now so sleepy. Genuinely though, everyone I follow and get to see pop up on my dash both makes me day and inspires me as a creative each and every time!!!
pet peeves/dealbreakers: the biggest ones for me rn are like … needlessly aggressive ooc attitudes, be it towards anons, in rules, in posts— esp if someone is flaunting about being mean i uh. have fun i guess? not for me.
Condescending rules, especially those geared towards oc’s, might even result in an insta-block from me. (i promise it’s okay to just say ur selective overall and leave it at that).
muse preference ( fluff, angst, smut ): I generally like to lean more into light-hearted & comedic stuff, esp when first interacting but cus it’s fun! Once I get comfy with my rp buds tho i do loooooove to get into the meat n potatoes— the drama, the action, THE DRAMA!!! <- but a nice balance is important to me!
if everything is doom n’ gloom all the time without either a break, some sort of bitter-sweetness, and/or light at the end of the tunnel— then The Dread™ starts to feel too much for me :0 that being said … horror is … so much fun too <3
plot or memes: memes are a life savior esp when it comes to breaking the ice— i wouldn’t be cookin’ up like. any of the delectable plots i got brewing in the dms without em >:0
long or short replies: BOTH! i tend to naturally lean towards longer replies, moreso because i always have A Lot To Say™️ but i love goofing around with shorter stuff <3
best time to write: if i had my way it’d be an hour or two after i wake up in the morning and made myself my fancy energy drink + did my n.eopets dailies 💕 i try to make sure i get one day off like this each weekend it’s so lovely. Otherwise, i try not to stress about it too much and do what i can. i want my rp buds to know i genuinely dont mind waiting for replies or anything and i think it starts with how you hold yourself to that same degree too
are you like your muse?: ooooo aren’t we all in some way? it’s important to sprinkle some part or facet of YOU into them, especially ocs!
i will say, Doc is far closer alike to me versus anyone else on this blog, esp when it comes to values! he’s just far more gung-ho that i could ever have the energy to be tho. also i hope im not as stubborn as him 💀
i did give Ophelia my weird girl tendencies tho but cranked that shit up into MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!!!
tagged by: @pzfr
tagging: i uh. i think most of my mutuals already got tagged this SO if you see this and you havent........PLEASE do this and tag me weeheehee <3
#👽 … ooc#👾 … dash game#//under a readmore cause as usual i had SOOOOO much to say#//this was a lot of fun tho!!!

I will not be referring to the monsters as they are referred to in the game's canon. They'll just be called things like monsters, creatures, cannibal spirits, demons etc.
My default is Josh makes it out 100% human as there's no indication in the game lore that the creatures maintain the kinda like, sentience you need to do roleplay post-transformation so like KHGSKDFG YA KNOW? But I'll likely end up with a verse where he's Some Kinda Possessed lemme just work out the mechanics on that.
I interact with mutuals only. I followed you, I'm up for doin' stuff. I also don't rp with minors and will block them on sight.
I am actively for pre-established relationships and all kinds of dynamics. I would prefer to hash it out at least a little bit if we don't have canon to fall back on just so I know we're on the same page about what the vibes are. But I'm cool with Josh having relationships outside of his known canon and for those relationships to go from platonic to romantic to antagonistic. So long and I feel like it makes sense I am cool with anything.
I'm so cool with shipping HOWEVER -- I have had bad experiences with people being shitty to me while trying to get me to ship with them so I limit who I ship with to people I've spoken to a bit OOC. Beyond that I'm actually pretty open to the content matter and pairings. Which yes does include OCs and other fandoms. Tragically I'm not into Josh/Chris. Sorry buds. It's not a no homo thing, tho so other dudes still have a shot lol.
we're not serious here but we are serious -- Josh is a very jokey character and I am a shitpost enjoyer but the topic matter here can get PRETTY FUCKING GRIM. So like, basically the blog is kind of Dead Dove-y and black humor geared since there's Horrors™ and the go-to method for coping with Horrors™ in this joint is goofs. There'll be talk of stalking, voyuerism, psychological torture, murder, death, cannibalism, mental health, psychosis, the mistreatment of the mentally ill, revenge, supernatural horror, humanistic horror, weird conflations of fear,sex and violence, and just kinda generally illegal or douchey activity. I try to tag things but pobody's nerfect so if you're following understand you're taking your own comfort into your own hands. No one said you had to follow me so don't get upset with me if you don't like what's on your dash dude that's what the unfollow and block buttons are for lol.
Josh can be kinda crude and flirtatious. His jokes definitely aren't for everyone and he tends to be pretty flirty just to be funny. It's not mandatory to reciprocate his flirtation or like his humor. If your muse is consistent with telling him they don't like it he will stop/adjust. I will not however, tone down his overall issues with not knowing when it's appropriate to say what since that's just one of his flaws/issues he's dealing with. So while he might not make sex jokes around or flirt with your muse he'll still probably say cringe shit.
I do not have schizophrenia or any kind of schizo-effective disorder. I do tend to go with the theory that Josh has schizophrenia as opposed to having withdraw based hallucinations. I try to research and write shit related to these topics the best as I can and not fall into any unsavory stereotypes but I'm also just some fucking guy so if you see anything that should be corrected lemme know! I only ask for some grace since I'm writing an anti-hero/anti-villain in a horror setting which might send us into unpleasant places related to this topic that necessitate ya know, Bad Stuff, and balancing it all out can be whack.
My main verse tends to assume that other people also survived. It's just that likely none of them talk to him anymore since he, you know, decided to LARP Saw without telling them and cast them in all the major roles. When it comes to Until Dawn people who's alive and who's talking to him still is up for talks and plotting and all that.
I don't rp smut on main and I don't really reblog anything ns.fw of that nature.

CAIN PATHOS CROW!! Don't know what's up with that dude, but my god does he seem fun.
HE IS SUPER FUN im kind of guilty of not drawing him that much but whenever he is in anything I enjoy him immensely. My buddy ol’ pal kpc
fav thing: EASILY the most mad scientist out of all the scp doctors next to maybe mann. This dog has committed so many crimes against humanity. Never ask a woman her age a man his salary and Professor Kain Pathos Crow about project olympia
least fav thing: uhhh nothing rlly! Hes a pretty tightly written character with mostly consistent characteritzation across the wiki overall imo. Newer lolfoundation-nostalgia type tales where all the author seems to be able to do with him is put him in wacky dog situations™ suck sometimes but everyones characterization sucks in those so like. i just ignore em
favorite line: (abt extracting someones soul from their body) Hah! I've done it! It wasn't that hard.
BrOTP: Him and gears again probably though id love a tale or two about him and elliott... what can i say im a sucker for when the senior staff get protegès and also victim of experiment gone horribly wrong solidarity wohoo
OTP: /
nOTP: /
random headcanon: classical revival is so generally not very good but I like the idea that the dog whos body Kain ended up in used to be his guide dog that kind of goes hard in a sad fucked up way
unpopular opinion: /
song: /
fav pic: HAS COMMITTED UNSPEAKABLE ATROCITIES every time I think about crow I think about has committed unspeakable atrocities

OKAY, NEXT AVA/M AU!
TIME FOR THE ONE WHERE ITS CLEAR I FAVOR THE DARK LORD! It's called "the Perdiction!AU" where i predict whats gonna happen in the Animator vs. Animation Series! taking a lot from my original AU, (Animation vs. Crimson). Dark lord repeats what i wrote down there. TL;DR - He gets virabots to help him, and he runs away into the forest. here, instead of hatching an EVIL, NEW PLAN™! Nah he just lives in a cottage and chills. Dark lord decides to also dismantle the surviving Virabots and turn them into a non-lethal, passive Virabot, called Terrey. who's basically a cat/dog for him to take care of and help him around. Dark also starts a garden in his backyard. in the basement of his cottage contains a lot of the old equipment from the previous house/base he had, recycled into other things. He still has a portal, but instead of the internet, it actually leads to StickCity for him to buy food and drinks n' stuff. he still has his Laptop (or his "console" as he calls it) and he uses to watch Second and his friend's adventures in Minecraft. not for any malicious reasons, he just wants to see how that punk who beat him is doing. also! he's adapted a new persona! "The Moss Lord"! he has a little crown made of moss and dirt, and he is really caring for the nature around him now. The plot begins right after "Wanted" (AvA s2 ep1) as the RBGY gang run into the forest to try to save their friends, and end up running into Dark's house. after meeting him and learning that he knows that trying to fight against Second and everyone is worthless, he's decided to change and just overall become a peaceful dude. the gang asks Moss/Dark if they can help him, and he says that he has been missing the thrill of fighting.. so only if he can have a 1v1 against Second, Chosen and Alan. all by themselves of course. Desperate, they say "Okay sure." and Moss Joins their team! Join the RBGY gang with the Moss Lord as they go through tricks and Hijinks, meet some old friends and watch as i go down a mental rabbit hole of what i imagine might happen in the show!

Here we go :)
I think this is the first heaven on their minds I'm seeing where judas actually talks directly to jesus and jesus seems to be at least listening? Instead of judas yelling from afar or talking to himself on the sidelines or jesus fucking off every time he comes near. Local couple has actual conversation, blogger is confused
Is he kissing jesus or whispering in his ear?
Oh this is gonna be an interesting judas mary dynamic isn't it
I love the staging. There's fire
Judas's voice doesn't sound rock-y (?) enough imo but it's a nice voice (bit deep maybe? miss the dramatic rises)
Due to sound quality What's The Buzz more than ever sounds like What The Fuck to my ears which is probably what they'd actually be saying half the time anyway
Oh I LIKE mary
Ah yes judas must climb on stuff of course
Mary just taking the torch like No that's enough playing with fire lmao
I keep expecting judas to start singing les mis for some reason??
Wow they really jist have normal conversations instead of sort of yelling at each other?? Which makes jesus going "you'll be sorry when I'm gone" so much more worrying somehow idek
Also. Polycule vibes with this particular trio are strong
Every caiaphas has such a deep voice idk why I'm still surprised but damn. The song itself is a bit meh here but annas and caiaphas have nice voices
Jesus is incredibly serious huh does he not know what smiling is or is it just too blurry for me to see
Oh Simon's voice is very nice
I love Judas just sitting on his perch like kitty
This jesus seems so calm all the time? He overall seems less "ongoing mental breakdown" than the vibe I prefer but more "resigned to his fate and just sorta waiting for death to catch up" which is also interesting tho (and well I haven't seen Gethsemane yet)
Oh pilate actually looks very Roman™ somehow
The temple feels like it's missing something in the orchestra? Huh
Is it just me or are they hurrying a bit through the transitions? From "get outttttt" straight to "my time is almost through" with barely a moment to let anything sink in
Love the next scene though you xan tell he wants to help but he also very much wants to run away
Though the Don't crowd me is a bit weird bc it doesn't look like anyone's all that close
And mary's try not to get worried also comes immediately again why is there no moment to let his outburst affect you :/
Ok but judas is there??? Right from the start of the scene?? That's a new one i like that omg cute?
Mary like "jeez put your head up lemme shove a pillow under there"
Ok the angle makes it impossible to tell if judas is still there atm but if he is then Mary's "should i bring him down" gets a whole new vibe and I'm desperate for more exploration of the relationship between these 2 in this version I love this Mary
For a second i thought she was checking jesus's pulse lmao
Ok so judas doesn't show up to be a dick in this version after her song. Much to think about
The scenes all feel more realistic somehow than I'm used to? Not sure I like it but i don't dislike it everyone's just having conversations it does detract from the drama which is a bit of a pity it's less dynamic idk
Caiaphas put that club away what is wrong with you look at Judas's babyface and tell me you want to hurt that
Dude's not even noticing they put the money in his hand huh (I never quite understand why they're so insistent on giving it to him anyway what's up with that)
Act II ✨
honestly jesus and mary give off extreme marfied vibes
"this wine could be my blood" husband dearest how much of that uhh blood have you already had
He's still so calm! Even though he's not really but he still is i can't explain it it's weird
... He reminds me of obi wan kenobi. Jesus christ kenobi
Poor mary is so confused and he's just trying to act like everything was normal
Ok idk what it is but the dramaticness of this version just isn't high enough for my tastes like even this whole dramatic confrontation at the last supper feels so subdued
Gethsemane halfway through and his voice and singing are great but he's somehow still too calm I'm actually getting frustrated here like you're not having a conversation with your dad about a controversial topic that escalates into different political opinions? You're yelling at god about the unfairness of your fate you have the entirely wrong kind of anger going on here somehow stop going right back to looking so fucking calm after evefy other line
Ok I was waiting for the "what YOU started" line but. No idk this is not at all doing it for me
*dramatically drinks from not actually poison at all cup*
Ugh cheek kisses. Soft lil hug though
I'd be so annoyed with this jesus if i were sn apostle he has constant disappointed teacher vibes
"Friday 5AM" why does it have to be that early dude didn't even get a nap in
I'm always a bit confused when annas goes "someone christ king of the Jews" bc like. I do not know any scriptures well at all but isn't annas Jewish. Like. Isn't the whole point that he doesn't accept that viewpoint at all why does he talk about "the Jews" like he's apart from that group. Am i fundamentally misunderstanding sth
Oh herod has dionysius vibes?
The way mary appears to look down at jesus after herod's song feels like if i didn't know what's happening I'd be expecting her to turn her back ln him now. Peter too actually idk they feel like jesus is hallucinating them? Is he? ...ok is that judas? There's no way they're meant to be real in that moment hnmm
Ok judas i like your voice but. Something is off ab8all this idk what but even if they're objectively dramagic it doesn't feel dramatic to my heart :(
...it feels. American somehow. Idk why or how to explain it but it has a specific American Musical™ vibe that tends to make things feel weirdly more artificial? to me?
Oh fuck they made mary watch Judas's suicide oh that sure is a choice i wish i could have inserted more scenes to just watch those two
I do like this pilate he seems very reasonable which is a nice contrast to Pilate 2000
Is that Mary there while jesus is getting whippey? Who let her in
Anyway the lashings were nice i slightly take back my complaints about lack of drama at least fpr this scene (he still doesn't look enough of s mess for my tastes tho. He's still just having a conversation with pilate)
This is a very static Superstar somehow why is judas singing at the audience and not at jesus for most of the song i don't think this is doing it for me
Oh i do wish i understood what jesus is saying though does anyone know??
Dude's just catching flies on the cross close your mouth?
Oh is that just all the relevant bible verses running behind the cross there in the end? It got too fast/blurry for me to read but that's kinda cool
Anyway! If you made it this far, I'm honestly impressed lmao. Fun show to watch, LOVE the jesus/judas/mary dynamic, would have loved to see more of that, but overall not quite my vibe
I am watching the 2012 Broadway revival JCS for the first time and I will NOT spam this blog with liveblogging but I am not even halfway through Heaven On Their Minds and already know I will be compelled to put my thoughts somewhere so I guess they'll go in a reblog of this post once I'm through adgshfh

Thoughts on The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)
I've got notes to write so I'm going to be watching The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) and writing whatever comes to mind.
There's a read more as I had a lot of thoughts and didn't want to clog up the blog.
From what I already know of this, is that it was almost a rite of passage for every queer person to watch this after it came out (I think not 100% certain on that though)
This is one of (if not) the oldest film that I've watched so I don't really have anything to compare it with unincluding more recent stuff.
Oooo old 20th century fox intro (with some piano's????)
I don't know how I am with horror films so this will be a Journey™
Definitely starting off strong with a pair of red lipstick lips singing on a black background
Oh god there's a character called Brad (also one called Riff Raff????)
I find it cool that all the credits are at the start of the film - if that happened today everyone would be complaining about it
Starting the film off with a church. nice
God that's an old camera
Ooooo a sinister minister
Oooo a black BMW pretty
This conversation between Janet and Brad is so awkward aaaaa
The deadpan 'Janet' from the two people at the door oml
Isn't it bad rep to propose to someone on your friends' wedding??? Bad friends alert
The church staff bringing in the coffin while they're just dancing (also the Wednesday Addams-esque person I like)
This mans be breaking the fourth wall
Ah yes, the classic 'enter at your own risk' sign
I don't get how Brad can see- it's chucking it down
Sick castle my dudes
The voice of the dude opening the door gives me Severus Snape vibes
ITS THE TIME WARP SONG - IVE ONLY HEARD THE VERSION OF THIS FOR DOCTOR WHO ON YOUTUBE
The dude can't sing but that's the fun of it
I love that Brad and Janet are weirded out by this
Janet gives me Stranger Things season 1 Nancy Wheeler vibes
I didn't know the song sweet transvestite was from this either
I wish I could feel that confident in my body as he is
Please tell me that Brad has a sexuality crisis
Magenta gives me Bellatrix Lestrange vibes
Rainbow liquid. me likey
I find it funny that 'love' and 'hate' are meant to be tattooed on this dudes knuckles but they're just written in pen
Nothing kills a party just like a lil murder
Poor Brad, Janet willingly cheating on him
Okay nevermind, he also cheated on her
"how could he?" Bitch you did the same thing with the same person
Her singing voice is too high (it hurts my ears)
The back-and-forth with names, such a musical type thing to do
Using a mini chainsaw to cut the meat, classy
Mans got Medusa'd oof
Some Morse code, nice
That's the creation of Adam painting but on the bottom of a pool - I mean, very creative I guess
I gotta say that they're all fabulous in the corset and high heat combo
Riff Raff and Magenta got a glow up.
They're going home to Transylvania, that's nice
Oh, it's only Magenta and Riff Raff and they're killing Frank
That's quite elegant, the sheet falling onto Frank's body
I don't understand how this is a horror film but sure
Overall score: 5.5/10
Film recommendations welcome!

Seeing Skid Row in Concert 20/10/2022✨
This was my first ever rock concert and wow did it set the bar high! I saw them in Brighton with my sister, and the support bands were Collateral and Enuff Z’nuff. the venue was essentially a small nightclub, definitely not designed with bands like Skid Row in mind, but it just made it more intimate and a better vibe overall🥰 I can honestly say that this was one of the best nights on my life so far, and I'll try my best to recount the events. Pictures will be posted soon!
Even tho we got there about 90 mins before doors, we were still second in line and were let in after about 40 mins.
I was talking to a lady in the line as well who had seen the Stadium Tour, and basically every rock band you could think of.
like we would name drop and she would say “aw yes i’ve seen them they're great i’m friends with x members” I honestly love that for her she was so cool.
I was expecting to be waiting for a while so I didn't have my tickets ready and was panicking trying to find them lmao. I was right near the front of the line ofc so I was panicking and holding everyone up but it was fine in the end😂
after that fiasco that wast really a fiasco we went in and we were RIGHT FRONT AND FUCKIN CENTER YALL!
it wasn't long at all until Collateral, the first support act, came on and they were actually aMAZING???
They were all on the younger side so I love that they chose up and coming bands to support.
I also forgot how loud live music is let alone rock/metal music rip my ears and I could feel the bass in my fuckin bones
The lead singer of Collateral was the biGGEST HOE EVER I LOVE HIM SM
mans was pullin shapes and swishing his long af hair around I love that
at one point he got up onto the barrier and was singing right into this one woman’s soul, she was holding onto his hips and he was holding her face with one had uUHHH it was all very hoe-ish of him and I know that woman was absolutely living
the guitarist also tried to crowd surf (I think?) but I think the security stopped him AKDJFKHJ so he was just kinda sitting on the barrier shredding on the guitar as you do ofc
anyways yeah Collateral were cool af and very early Skid Row esque you should check them out!
The next support act was Enuff Z’nuff and oh my god were they eccentric.
I've heard of the band before and i’ve listened to a few of their songs but I didn't know how cool they were live!
Chip, the lead singer and bassist, is just the epitome of seasoned glam rocker dude and he was so chaotic.
as in the band entered the stage to circus music (you know the one I mean) and I was like oH ok this is what we’re dealing with.
thy also played a glam metal version of Eleanor Rigby which was beautiful and unexpected.
one of the guitarists looked so much like Mike from the Young Ones as well, and the drummer was also v cute I think I might have a small crush on him-
but now its the time you've all been waiting for: SKID MF ROW ARE IN THE HOUSEEE
the last song the venue played before Skid Row went on was Crazy Train and everyone was losing their shit it was awesome
just as they were coming onto the stage Scotti gave me The Eyes™ and I almost evaporated there and then. boi was also wearing sO much eyeliner it was beautiful.
btw incase you didn't know the new singer for Skid Row is a very dapper younger lad by the name of Erik Grönwall, lets just say he will be a very important character throughout the rest of this report.
before they went into the first song and the guitars were just kinda reverbing, Erik just stood right in fucking front of me and sTARED AT EVERONE WITH THE BIGGEST GRIN ON HIS FACE LFJKLDHFKD IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT YALL
they opened with Slave to the Grind and
wow
just wow
they sound iNCREDIBLE live and Erik has the most AMAZING VOICE OH MY FUCKIN JESUS
(no we’re not going to compare them but just to put things into perspective, yes it was just like 80-90s Sebastian Bach)
Erik was also just aggressively head banging at every given opportunity my neck hurt just watching him but you could tell the man was just having the time of his life up there
he is also just sO. FUCKING. CHARMING
YOU CANT NOT FALL IN LOVE WITH THAT MAN I JUST- UUUGHHH
It was also in this first song where the initial realisation sunk in that this is THE Skid Row
as in this is the same Scotti, Snake and Rachel that I watch in all those live performances and interviews and just random videos from the 80s and 90s, and who are probably besties with some of my other favourite musicians and-
Rachel also had a sparkly bass which was so beautiful I want 34 of my own
also no-one told he that Scotti Hill was slightly unhinged djkjfkgh
he would just sTARE at you with The Eyes™ while playing and it was very intimidating so I just stared back when he would do it to me
I guess not many people can say they've had a staring contest with Scotti Hill but here we are😪
They played In A Darkened Room and Psychotherapy which I did NOT expect but I very much appreciate as they are two of my faves
also during IADR Erik Took someones phone and recorded the crowd and the band, I wonder how it feels to have a video as iconic as that one on your phone?
The stage was also small af too so Erik would just stand right at the edge (towering tf over me I might add skskjhkfg) and would knock off all the wires there LMAO
the security had to keep picking them up idk I just thought that that was so funny
another cool thing about Erik that Rachel mentioned is that before Covid happened, Erik was a support act for Skid Row while they were touring, and now hE’S THE LEAD SINGER OF THE BAND HE WAS SUPPORTING THREE YEARS AGO???? AWWWW???
honestly the rest of the night was kind of a blur (in a good way!)
that was until they played I Remember You
it was all going fine and dandy when I randomly decided to reach out my hand
and the beautiful bastard that is Erik Grönwall
REACHED OUT AND HELD MY MF HAND WHILE SINGING RIGHT AT ME
our fingers were interlinked for only a few seconds (I actually dont remember how long it was my brain was freaking out) but within those few seconds I officially sold my soul to Erik
my main character moment
a true core memory for sure
I did see a video someone took of the whole song but you couldn't see me and Erik h*lding h*nds in it lkdgfkldgh😭
he also took someones phone again and recorded everyone which was cool bc everyone had their phones lit up🥰
They closed with Youth Gone Wild which was just perfect because me and my sister were, for this entire concert, the mf youth gone wild🥰
earlier Rachel even said that x song was “from our first album, which was released before some of you guys were even born by the looks of things” and stared straight at me with That Smile Of His
Scotti and Snake were also just jamming together and living their best lives while playing Youth Gone Wild it was beautiful🥰
also when Erik sang “a boss screaming in my ear...” he gestured at Rachel LMAOO
while they were playing the outro I got to high-five Erik once again and I also got to fist bump Rachel, Scotti and Rob
and that was that!
I got a poster and also got to meet Chip there too! he was so cool!
just as we were leaving we also met Snake outside skjhgfsghjkf
he was honestly sO SWEET OH MY GOD
I was very very VERY awkward as i’ve never met anyone famous before and was definitely nOT expecting to meet him and I was also in a rush
we talked for a little bit and took a photo together
I got to hug him twice and that was honestly the cherry on top of a perfect night
i’m having withdrawals already I miss them all sm😭
#thank you for coming to my concert report#hopefully I can make this a regular thing#because I now cRAVE to be at more concerts like this one#there's something about the smaller intimate venue that is just unmatched#lets just say the bar is vERY HIGH#anyways if you're in the UK and are thinking of seeing Skid Row fUCKIN DO IT#even if you dont really listen to them they are amazing#and you will fall head over heels in love with Erik its impossible not to#and hopefully they tour again next year too bc I will for sure be going again#concert log#concert report#live music#rock music#heavy metal#classic rock#glam metal#hair metal#Skid Row

Q4 2021 CHARACTER UPDATE - PLAYLIST VER.
no parallels - hands like houses [ “this is happiness; to be everything at once.” ]
this is the song the lyrics on indy’s theme are from, and one i feel overall suits him really well. to me, it’s a song full of adventure and about finding happiness and freedom even with the burdens that come with the human condition. indy himself is pretty free-spirited and naturally has a pretty optimistic and sunny disposition, so it has a lot of his energy. there are also lots of references to nature, which is also something very important to indy. there’s a lyric that goes “we're domestic and we're discontent, and we're grinding our gums raw,” so it’s not an entirely happy song, just as indy isn’t an entirely happy person, but it suggests that an adventurous spirit and throwing caution to the wind is how you really enjoy life, and indy fits that bill pretty well!
are you gonna be my girl - jet [ “well it's one, two, three, take my hand and come with me because you look so fine that I really wanna make you mine.” ]
this makes the list because it’s one of indy’s favorite songs (along with geronimo by sheppard, which didn’t make the list for the sake of redundant descriptions.) jet is an australian band, just like indy is a kid from sydney, australia himself. this song came out in 2003, a mere two years after indy was born, but it’s a song that was present in his childhood, and throughout his entire life, indy has been a fan of older rock music. then again, indy listens to a lot of different music (except for much kpop, ironically...) but he’s sentimental and songs that were important to his life growing up are usually some of his favorites.
surfin’ usa - the beach boys [ “everybody’s gone surfin’, surfin’ usa.” ]
indy is not actually surfin’ usa, he’s surfin’ australia, but the concept is ultimately the same. indy’s identity is “surfer boy” before just about anything else. he's even got the stereotypical blond surfer dude hair, and he still has the dawn patrol and world surf league apps downloaded even though he's been living in korea for more than two years now. he used to surf all the time back in australia; it was his Thing™ and his passion. it's one of the things he misses most now that he's in korea. he skateboards now, but it just isn't the same as the ocean breeze and sand between his toes. early in his time in legacy, he would get anxious being inside for so long. he's more used to it now, but still feels most at home as surrounded by nature as possible. unfortunate.
canyon moon - harry styles [ “you gotta see it to believe it, sky never looked so blue.” ]
this song gives hippie vibes, and there's even a line about "hippie music" in here, which is part of the reason why it was added to the playlist. indy's mother may be a scientist, but don't be fooled; his parents are also both conservationists and definitely hippies. they named their son indigo march lee. enough said...but really, this song also speaks to indy's love of nature and homesickness for australia, because even in a city like sydney, the sky seemed bluer and the air seemed fresher. he got to visit australia again over the holiday break, which was great, but getting back to korea and legacy leaves him with some mixed feelings: both new motivation and relief and new sadness in leaving australia behind again.
here comes the sun - the beatles [ “here comes the sun, and i say it’s alright.” ]
i call indy "sunshine boy" a lot, so this song seemed fitting to add based off that much alone. i compare him a lot to the sun in his bio too, and i do think it's a fitting comparison. he's almost always smiling brightly, trying to cheer everyone up, and a very warm person in all ways. he's a very optimistic person, and while he's not always as internally sunny as he appears, overall, he's the kind of person to be confident everything will end up okay eventually. his main goal in becoming an idol, and in his life in general, is to make people happy, so here comes the sun (indy)!!
dwyw - stand atlantic [ “take me closer to the sun, you can cut off both my arms.” ]
this song is darker than any of the others on the playlist, but even the "happiest" characters need at least one! part of the reason this song is on this playlist is because stand atlantic is an australian band. the "take me closer to the sun" line is also where i got the title of indy's playlist. to me, this song relates to indy's pushover tendencies, and how he'll sacrifice anything to try to make and keep other people happy. he's also gullible and easily taken advantage of, and puts up with a lot without ever standing up for himself. while he seems confident and unshakably cheerful, there are moments where he has a lot of self-doubt, and this song explores that.
sunny - sunmi [ “you can call me sunny, sunny.” ]
ah yes, back at it again with the sunshine references. like mentioned before, indy is a very bright and warm person, not so unlike sunshine. it's a running motif in the background i wrote for him, too, and he tries to embody the sun in everything he does. aside from that, this song is also adventurous and makes lots of references to the ocean, the beach, and paradise, all things that are important to indy too. it's adventurous and fun, as is indy, and even the vaguely tropical and upbeat instrumental has his energy to me. it's just fun and cute! so is he.
work this body - walk the moon [ “i will work this body, i will burn this flame, oh in the dead of night and in the pouring rain.” ]
this is another really upbeat and fast song with a driving beat where the instrumental alone gives me the Vibes. overall, this song is really relevant to him though; the "work this body" part applies literally in the fact that indy is a dancer, and the "burn this flame" part makes me think of indy's stubborn insistence on remaining optimistic and happy for everyone around him. he may not have a lot of ambition, but he does work really hard, and he's been beaten down by lots of people based on his lack of skill and talent. part of him is really determined to prove everyone wrong in that regard, so he uses it all as motivation to improve, and the lyrics of this song go along with that.
with you - superm [ “like the ocean gives away the breeze, i wanna ride your wave and be your tide.” ]
more fresh, bright, nice instrumental indy vibes, but of course, the lyrics apply too! to me, this song is kind of a soft ode to indy's relationships, especially #aussieline. it's another song with a kind of adventurous spirit, about throwing caution to the wind and enjoying time with someone, whether that's a friend or romantic interest. maybe it leans more romantic, but indy is really soft and affectionate with his friends, so the parts about holding hands etc don't have to be romantic for him. it's also here for ocean references! always! indy would also like to clarify that this song does not make him think about jiahn, which is obviously false, otherwise he would not need to clarify it.
boogie up - wjsn [ “hey, shake that, boogie up!” ]
this song is pretty straightforward and is about exactly what you would think: boogieing up. that is to say: dancing. 80% of the lyrics are about dancing in the summer heat, which is another indy vibe. this one is just fun, which indy deserves bc he suffers a lot for the good kid he is asdasdgdsg there's very little depth to it. just a song for a kid dancin in the summer time, the vibe. there's not much to say here so all i'll do is repeat myself and nobody is going to read to the end of this anyway so i'll just hit 100 words this way, thank you thank you <3
#~ headcanon#lgc:cupdate002#( goodbye i'm never doing 10 songs again#i have 97 songs in his playlist so it was hard deciding#and i didn't think it would be hard explaining them all but asdfasggds#it was lowkey so much work#but we're done now ok i'm only doing five for becca#also reminder that if u want to use this playlist template i have it pinned and downloadable in nari's pinned post! )

Please note a lot of these... Aren't actually substitutions
For those asking how these things would actually be said in Corporate™ (which we all know to be a distinct and selarate language), see below. Assume those I don't correct are, to the best of my knowledge as a generic brand white dude, correct.
You've gotta be shitting me->Are you certain?
Tell someone who gives a fuck->I'm afraid that I have more pressing concerns, although someone else might have the opportunity to respond fully.
Ask me if I give a fuck->I have more pressing concerns at the moment.
It's not my fucking problem->That falls outside of the scope of my duties.
Why the fuck didn't you tell me sooner->In future I would prefer to be looped in on matters like this significantly sooner.
When the fuck do they expect me to do this->I'm afraid this would overburden me, and before I can take this on I would need a reevaluation of my overall workload. (Optional) Alternatively, arrangements could be made for me to be compensated for increasing my hours to accommodate the increased workload. (Maybe throw some stuff in there about how you're a person and part of your job responsibilities involve managing your out of work life in such a way you are most able to attend to your at work life, and the current balance you have struck is delicate and increased compensation would be necessary to soften the blow of increased hours.) (Sorry this one was long, it pissed me off the most)
He's got his head up his ass->Additional training or guidance may be necessary for them to complete this task up to standards.
Eat shit->That seems a frank appraisal of the situation.
Eat shit and die->(This one... Too many reasons to say that for me to give just one substitute)
What the fuck do they want from me->Expectations were unclear and unfortunately the results were not satisfactory. Clarification of the aforementioned expectations would be appreciated going forward.
Kiss my ass->I would ask you to please look elsewhere for assistance with this matter/I will see what can be done regarding attaining assistance for you.
Shove it up your ass->Please look elsewhere for clarification with this matter.
Who the hell died and made you boss->Have you gotten this approved through the proper channels?
Blow me->(... Once again, too many reasons to say it)
Another fucking meeting->Perhaps, with regards to the value of everyone's time, we should look into abbreviating or reducing communications of this nature.
I fucking told you so->In prior feedback outcomes were considered/Using the employed method this outcome was expected (Probably best to just not express this sentiment though)
And there you have it. Fair warning, I'm not an expert on this stuff and have no formal HR training, and Corporate™ is a language that doesn't translate well to working with actual human beings instead of machines/humans being treated as machines.

tbh after finally watching the urbance pilot im a little mad abt it esp since going into the tag there’s always that “it’s the fault of sjws for killing progressive media by being overly critical” bc there’s a lot to say on that concept but anyway my vices regarding it:
-the art? Great the best part of it TBH -the plot? pretty bad. that’s a large pt let’s break it down a little > the whole concept of a lost generation, urban themes, mixed racial cast? all really good and i’m a sucker. > the whole “everyone is mixed race bc race doesn’t exist anymore” is a bit wishy washy and even everything else aside unrealistic And tbh also considering i’m not actually 100% sure if the main guy who created it is actually even black and it sorta borders on the whole fetishizing poc thing (esp considering the whole thing is basically inspired by black people / "urban”(ce) culture of people of color, and also japanese anime stylization sooo yeah) ((also esp considering how cis and binarist the entire concept of the show is it’s really. not well thought out bc you know, gender binary is a western construct and a lot of cultures have their own cultural things, etc, etc whatever)) >the whole “bad guys r a buncha neon clad androgynous randos” is a bit Could Be Better. maybe if they included other like...other trans things it could be fleshed out but Hm. >the whole heterophobia concept was bad initially and i think when the initial critism came out they were decently responsive to it, but the whole plot still reeks of a bad het ripoff of the AIDS epidemic and since it seems like the main plot is abt some hets then yeah bad post op. also the way the intro scene setting was “disease that once you sex it up it kills you in minutes, it started as a Heterosexual Sex(TM) only problem and binarist gender segregation occurred, but then it spread to the Gays and we just kept the segregation ig even tho it sorta doesn’t matter anymore bc we didn’t think this far in completely overhauling the plot” fair enough ig. >that part in the pilot where main girl(?) making eyes at main boy(?) and it’s het and she kisses a girl but opens her eyes and makes eyes at the boy while doing it as if the girl (who is sorta not even fully in frame?) isn’t even relavant, and he’s like turned on by it or whatever that’s BAD reeks of lesbian fetishism and was literally the worst thing they could’ve done > not even plot related rly and i know it’s an Adult thing or whatever but why all the weirdly graphic porny shit...that part w that girl fondling some dudes balls: bad. that part w hets getting freaky in the bathroom: could be worse but Still. that part w androgynous people sticking hand up dead girl’s vag in order to confirm infect: Literally The Worst Please Don’t Do This > anyway away from all that the whole thing is still very cishet and sort of overall poorly constructed and the world-building is flimsy at best but to be fair a lot of very popular and praised franchises have weaker world-building so like not for lack of trying in that regard. Anyway uhh tldr: some concepts not the worst, i’m a dumbass who’s admittedly willing to watch most terrible things if they have good art styles bc i’m a sucker like that but they’re pushing it. if yr years in the making pilot is gonna be 8 minutes long please use better discretion on what you’re going to include in those 8 minutes. maybe like telling the characters names or? Yeah anyway if it was a bit less poorly thought out, actually maybe gave more actual info on the world-building since what’s given is tbh very bare bones and admittedly can’t Entirely judge considering *just mostly judge), and if it’s really made by black creators and were a bit more self aware it has a lot of potential is the moral

Alexander (2004) Review
• odd Irish accents • I don’t know why they started it at Gaugamela, but it’s very strange. • everyone is Acting™ • Darius III had a solid six seconds of staring dead into the camera with no expression while the audio died in the background. A cursed video. • “gay love can build city states and raise us from our frog pond” • Phillip in the cave is me when I don’t know the answer on a test • rampant misogyny and maybe?? homophobia • came right out with it that Alex/Hep and Achilles/Patroclus were lovers so there’s that at least • a surprisingly diverse POC cast on the Persian side? • very strange and random slow-mo with lion roaring • the font that they use is literally Papyrus, do I really need to say more • there’s one dude in Babylon who looks like a LOTR elf and is feeling up a statue of an old man • lots of Crotch Shots™ bc all the guys are wearing v short tunics • they quote the Aeneid but the Aeneid wasn’t written yet?? • Hep is v v v jealous in the harem scene • they did “he too is Alex” with Stateira instead of Sisygambis but I forgive them • Honestly Hep in that silk robe is such a #look. And they banter about being Achilles and Patroclus • ok actually any scene with Hep and Alex together in it is pretty good?? • Hep is so viciously salty about Roxana • Alex is just steadily drinking through his own wedding • any scene where Alex/Hep is happening is actually really good and seems like it’s from a totally different movie? • there’s too much to unpack with the animalistic depiction of Roxana • was Bagoas real? • it has an intermission. I'm becoming more and more convinced that this was a gay indie historical romance that somehow got picked up and destroyed by Hollywood. • The time skips are very odd and it's not always clear when we come back to the 'present', making it very confusing if you don't already know the history. • Alex's Little Black Tunic is such a #look. Honestly both boys are serving. • now he's making out with his mother • the Battle of the Hydaspes was 1/2 the Wilhelm Scream, 1/2 slow mo, and all Red • Alex, your kegger habits are going to kill you. •what did I say • So, overall, it was not completely horrible. The battle scenes were terrible, the music uninspired, the acting overdone and historically inaccurate, it was sexist and racist, confusing, and badly paced with a weird frame rate and blurry cinematography. However, there were some pretty people, the Hep/Alex was done very well when they actually were on screen together, and it felt like there was a really stellar Indie movie inside it screaming to break free. 3/10 stars. Good if you like Alex and are half blind.
