snake dust lore
tw child abuse/murder
tw jincan experimentation
tw illegal monster trafficking
tw death
he was born in an illegal black market monster trafficking site.
specifically the result of countless trials and errors with throwing monsters to each other's throats just to live. he survived being wiped out due to his speed and clocking ability. his siblings we're not so lucky.
the experiment was an ancient tradition that had been modernized and twisted into a sick display of the worse cruelty humans had to offer. jincan was banned ever since the human monster war era. though that did little to stop the humans from weaponizing LV. increasing it's potency through creating addicted mind slaves that would only be born to serve the purpose of being their exp.
then again... nature also had the same excuse but animals wouldn't be counting only feed out of instinct.
so many bites, so much poison running through his tiny soul that was one chip away from snapping into shards.
so much pain. and yet by some luck. by some faint glimmer of determination he'd barely make it out... one day after another barely surviving.
he was slowly developing a unique tolerance to the toxins. and finally being the "result" the humans were after... immunity to toxic magic? or was it to create a venom potent enough to kill thousands for their little weapons?
he knew he wasn't the only one... the humans made sure to have PLENTY of test subjects to kill off before letting "unnatural selection" do it's thing. he had competition...
the luxurious food, or the praises... the fake smiles they'd give him looking at him like he was some sort of object... he was too prideful to let himself fall for it.
he didn't care. he just wanted to get out.
after a while they stopped throwing him in the pit. instead they would directly forcefully inject him with whatever "safe dose" of deadly substance they had to make a "cure". and it was extracted from his competitors...
just another guinea pig that was one of the very few to make it to adulthood through a hellscape.
family? siblings? friends? why even bother when they'd just be used against you?
mates? just for these freaks to make more of his kind suffer? just to repeat the cycle? no. no he wouldn't play their dumb sick game.
if they wanted a monster he'd give them one. he'd kill all their PRECIOUS research results, then himself and burn the place down. it didn't matter. nothing mattered.
though it never came into fruition.
he eventually escaped containment as he was being transported to a bidder. he went into hiding unsure where and where to strike back. all he could do was wait.
it was what had kept him alive so far after all.
#this is dark#basically dusttale but not#this bean losts his family when he was three weeks old#fuking protect the bean#he only trusts himself#scratch that he doesn't even trust himself#he would have more issues than dusttale sans ngl#childhood trauma just hits different#friking raised in a Minecraft mob grinder

The musical episode.
[First] Prev <â-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jin guangyao#nie mingjue#Remember jin guangyao: If you do any treachery you will face the wrath of five horses.#When are the horses going to come into play? You'll see.#s2.ep8 had beautiful music... I listened to it on loop while drawing!#Good music to chill out to before you fly into a rage.#This episode really cements how JGY's mind works - It is a matter of long-term outcomes at the sake of nearly everything else.#Morals do not matter to him if the outcome is more favourable.#and at the center of it all - he has learned that the only person he can truly trust is himself.#In turn - the only person his actions benefit are himself.#He will do anything and everything it takes to reach a position of power - not just for the power. But because it means safety.#Because it was something he was denied and the idea of not having control in his life again is unforgivable.#'Happiness' isn't a goal. We are looking at someone still stuck at the bottom of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.#Everything and everyone is a piece in a game. Bonds and friendships are assets. People are dispensable.#He wants to climb for the sake of climbing. He wants praise and recognition because he feels it is deserved. It's all so hollow.#We could go deeper into his psyche on this.#But these are also tags under a comic in which 'evil penis music' is the punchline.

i think a lot of people are calling viktorâs reaction to waking up changed and then almost immediately leaving for zaun unrealistic and like⊠yes it would be. for someone whose mind has not been affected by the hexcore. he speaks differently, he hears skyâs voice through its influence, he can no longer feel the cold, or the warmth of jayceâs hug. he walks away from jayce because he can no longer feel the affection that kept them together, and he sees no logical point in remaining when they have no common ground anymore. he might not be a machine externally, exactly, but his mind certainly isnât human anymore.
#you KNOW he was seeing visions in that coma. he knew exactly where to go and what he was going to do#even before this he had so little self worth. he saw himself as only being worth as much as his inventions.#he never saw himself as someone worthy of love; he barely saw himself as anyone at all#the only person he KNOWS saw him as more than that is dead and itâs his fault#and waking up and finding out what jayce has done only cements the fact he cannot trust jayce to do what he himself thinks is right#thereâs no way he could stay with jayce and do what he needs to do to help the zaunites. at least in his mind anyway#sighhhh. anyway i will probably have to write fic about this tomorrow lmaooo#arcane#jayvik#arcane s2 spoilers#p

I'd like to take a moment to point out to detractors of ships involving Laios who feel that "Laios wouldn't take any interest in people!" that he'd hyperfixated on Shuro so badly it was ruining the man's life lmao
#dungeon meshi#dunmesh spoilers#not even discounting that he'd be aroace or anything just that laios is perfectly capable of taking an interest in people#labru#this one's for labru nation#laios stating the reason that (alongside with having a genuine interest in shuro's home)#he was so excited because he thought shuro considered him a friend#could you even IMAGINE how he'd be with a person who went c o m p l e t e l y out of his way to be his friend on purpose#venturing into the dungeon putting himself in danger dying over and over again just to get close to him and his party#can you#i can#none of this even mentioning how the series ends with laios developing a genuine desire to take a bigger interest in humans#but i wont hold that against the anime onlys#side note it just kills me how laios (who is so painfully trusting of people) to immediately think kabru is lying to him here#god#top 10 characters who absolutely rot my brain

something happening on a mission, something personal that has soap spiralling; panic and rage making him reckless, thoughtless, and ghost has to draw the line
âyouâre compromised johnny; you know what that means?â
âyouâre not pulling me out,â soap immediately snarls. he turns on him and ghost barely recognises him; venomous fear turning his eyes to unyielding ice. "you're not sidelining me; i need to be in this-!"
but ghost has never been afraid of venom; spat or dripped straight from bared fangs.
he snakes out a hand grip the back of his neck, jerking him in a rough shake. "if you can't think, you can't be a soldier," he growls and he flinches like he's been struck.
his lips quiver as they twist in a sneer and he wrenches, trying to free himself of his hold.
ghost doesn't let him.
"it means you give your body to me because your head ain't fucking attached to it anymore."
soap stills, body trembling beneath his hand as he sucks in shaking breaths.
he tightens his grip, pulling him closer and digs his forehead hard into his. âit means you give yourself to me so i can have the weapon that you are and use you the way you're meant to be used."
the ice in soap's eyes fractures.
ghostâs voice drops to a whisper, spoken only to johnny, not this facade of vengeance and pain, and wills it to reach him through the glaciers.
âso i can keep you safe âtil itâs done and i can bring you back.â
#in my head its bc graves abducts his sister and is using her as hostage to draw him out knowing ghost will always follow him#but the intensity and intimacy of saying âyou cant trust your mind not to betray you so let me be in charge of your body until you canâ#after what happened to tommy he could never deny johnny his right to save his sister#but its bc of what happened to tommy that he knows he cant let him do it alone with only his rage to guide him#hes more likely to get himself killed and ghost wont live through that#so he has to balance it#and the only way he knows how is to completely shut down soapâs mind until hes no more than instinct and muscle memory#if he cant think practically then dont let him think at all#reduce him to a place where he can only follow orders#and when its finally over and his sister is safe and graves is dead#only then will he drag johnny back up to the surface#heâll do it even if it means dragging him kicking and screaming back to humanity#instead of letting him sink in the depths where nothing hurts. theres no fear down there. no pain. only order#and thats the risk ghost took sending johnny to that place but he only did it bc he would stop at nothing to bring him back#and help him through the after#the breakdown. the rush of panic and rage and relief and anguish johnnys been supressing on his order#it was his word that turned johnny into a ghost#and its his touch that brings him back to the man#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#weâre a team. ghost team#cod#soapghost#ghostsoap#ghost x soap#ghoap#simon ghost riley#ghost cod#john soap mactavish#soap cod#save post

sam literally offering himself to dean in 2.11 playthings, and dean not giving it to him because he doesnât want to âruinâ his little brother
and this is why sam would initiate. AND he would prefer to bottom
#playthings sam & his body language is so important tbh#the thing is. when it comes to their romantic dynamic i can only see bottom!sam as the only realistic option because#itâs canon that he frequently offers his body to dean as a punching bag so whoâs to say he wouldnât offer himself as more than that?#especially since he wants deanâs trust & approval more than anything#itâs about his body language itâs about his PHYSICAL submission to dean!#itâs about the fact that dean is the only one sam trusts & adores enough to allow himself to be that vulnerable#like yes blatantly s*xual dynamic isnât canon but you can get some hints at what it couldâve been by analyzing their interactions#and especially samâs body language#and how dean has this urge to possess sam & desperately craves some power/control over him#and sam is aware of that and heâs willing to give it to him#wincest#samdean#spn

my offering for swap!au (dozo)
i have a lot of Thoughts about this au. specifically where both kni and vash's goals differ but yet i still try to keep the same. the shift is, who was the one who got rem's speech after tesla's revelation.
kni uses his powers of creation so as not to let his sisters suffer the end of a last run anymore. hence the black hair. meanwhile, vash doesn't want to eradicate all of humanity, but to control them and strip them of their free will. he thinks in this way, he could control how plants are to be treated and kni won't have to slowly kill himself for the Humans and their sisters. he's starting a cult lmao
#i have more Thoughts on this#kni also does preses his head against the glass of a plant's tank but instead of healing the plant#he learns how to create whatever the plant was designed to generate#i also think with vash having lost faith on the only human he thought he could trust and love like a mother#he'd be Extra clingy to kni and the separation anxiety is Real af. like really 'there's no one else but you' vibes#and for them to be opposing forces i think vash wouldnt care so much about the plants as much as kni does.#he just wants his brother by his side and not to slowly kill himself for them Period#you could say he'd be a little jealous as well.#SO MANY POSSIBILITIES!!!#trigun#trigun stampede#KV#plantcest#swap au#millions knives#vash the stampede#redsoda art

Crystal Warnings
Threats to Earth are not news to the Justice League. Neither is the fact that a threat is "too powerful" for them, what is new is that the U.S. government wants to provide them with help, since when have they ever wanted that?
It is a novelty that does not sit very well with Bruce, because he feels that there is something wrong with the situation. They had faced thousands of dangers but it is only now that they are offering something? Definitely suspicious.
However Clark's curiosity was only outweighed by Barry's desperation to find a solution so he agreed to listen to what the "GIW" had to say.
Apparently their current threat was very much connected to them, which Bruce was not surprised by, what did surprise him was that the threat was less of a threat and more of a warning of sorts. As usual, people had played with things they shouldn't, causing catastrophic results.
The organization that contacted them had some sort of crystal, they flatly refused to say where it came from but explained that it was very important to beings from another dimension, and they were trying to contain the threat but found it impossible.
What Bruce got out of that conversation was that the organization had greatly disturbed a civilization full of unknown beings for the sheer joy of it. And that their current enemy was nothing more than a being desperate to retrieve whatever the crystal was.
Clark, of course, asked them for the crystal, to which they seemed very reluctant but in the end agreed. And Bruce set about contacting Diana, because he was sure they needed a diplomatic intervention rather than an actual battle.
It became clear that the crystal was extremely important when the giant eldritch menace transformed into a desperate teenage girl the moment the crystal appeared in her field of vision. That was even more evident when hundreds of portals began to form around the place, different creatures scowled at the humans.
Bruce vowed never to place his trust in organizations outside the League and its allies again. He swore doubly so when the crystal stopped being a crystal and transformed into a groggy, sleepy teenager mid-conversation.
There really was a hell of paperwork ahead. But at least the world was saved from human stupidity, again.
#dpxdc#Danny was captured by the GIW#Kind of#he was actually a little hurt and withdrew to heal himself in his core#the GIW just found him#Danny was sleeping for a while#probably due to the lack of ectoplasm in the environment than anything else#Ellie obviously noticed his absence#Clockwork indicated to the halfa that Danny was on earth but he did not know where#Danny is the only being that Clockwork cannot predict#Unfortunately#so Ellie got a little aggressive during her search#dp x dc#dc x dp#The GIW knew the crystal was important but didn't understand why the ghosts wanted it#Batman obviously doesn't trust their judgment#Danny took a long nap by accident#and Ellie destroyed a couple of buildings by accident too#ghost king danny

they were so insane for having house play "hugh laurie's cuddy's serenade" bookending "you can't always get what you want" as cuddy held her party with everyone else and their mother attending AND having her open the door only to drop her smile when it wasn't house. she really said "i DON'T want you there" and got upset when he didn't come. they drive me insane
#amethyst.txt#that scene honestly haunts me#there's just so much to say about it. doomed love. house never really being on the same page as her#house only second guesses himself around wilson and cuddy. when an instruction is given in earnest he will listen#he'll do that soft âokay.â and Listen. no games#how cuddy Constantly proves that she doesn't trust him. tricking him about thanksgiving. playing mind games about this baby party#trying to get him not to interfere with arlene. showing up the night she almost died to get pissed at his addiction#like there's something so monumentally human about it. under all the games the tricks the hate#its hyperbole from the start to the end but it boils down to something so kind and soft and gentle#cee's house rambles#<- cee isn't fronting but im not making a new tag and the subsys is cosmic cluster anyway so the cee isn't that far off#house md

Jason who immediately loses respect for people who don't own up to their mistakes vs Annabeth who would rather die than admit she made a mistake
#jason vs annabeth. autism vs npd lol#idk what the outcome is. i don't think they'd fight physically. but jason would get on her ass. and she'd be so fucking pissed abt it#she'd strategize different ways to put him in uncomfortable situations for whatever reason#and he's just vibing through them because he's been uncomfortable his entire life. pretending to be bacon for a monster is not new#anyway jason looking at his dad who's refusing to admit he made some dumb decisions and immediately going this guy is an idiot fuck him#happy talks pjo#npd!annabeth#jason grace#annabeth chase#oh oh annabeth needing everyone to like and trust her and jason's lost respect for her drives her up the fucking wall#she's the only one of the seven who could really be considered friends with all of them and jason's judgy eyes make her want to explode#she 100% rants herself to sleep about things he says. maybe that's where percy and jason's beef arised from#percy recognizing that annabeth is fustrated with jason because jason is blunt and doesn't really know to soften his words.#so now percy is fustrated with jason because annabeth is the source of his personhood right now. meanwhile jason is just vibing oblivious#no social awarenes whatsoever. anyway lol#but oooooo see leo's inferiority complex actually makes him fess up to errors in a way that judges him (jokingly but not really)#even if the error wasn't his fault. but it's his willingness to admit to his mistakes that makes jason really appreciate and trust him#so we have npd!annabeth who can't admit to being wrong because it would kill her ego#and then inferiority complex leo who does admit to being wrong because he hates himself#and when he fucks up he is quick to confess (often in a self-deprecating joke manner) so that no one can say anything that would hurt him#if he kills his ego before other people can even attempt it then he's safe from their judgement in some way#okaaaay bac to studying lol
