Today on P3R, we spend at least 3 days playing an MMO, let a small child steal our food, and head to The Club for a night of… well, actually we just popped in and then went home to go on the computer. Minato is me, for real. XDDDD

So it’s the start of Golden Week, which means days off school! Which means I can barricade myself in my room and play the game Junpei gave us!

We’re off to a great start. EP starts in October, and IS starts in August, so, close enough. I wonder what the plot is gonna be li--

...

......

.........

WELL. I guess he’s here in some small way, at least.

Of course, even when it’s a fake version of Phil, he’s just giving his vague speeches.

Thanks for the enlightening intro about anything that’s going on in this game, Phil. No other info is forthcoming. We just load into an area called Shinagawa Dungeon (which is not P2) and are immediately approached by another player.

...it’s 2009. It’s 2009. It’s 2009. I’m fine. X’D

Did people really ask “ASL” on MMOs?? I thought that was like a chatroulette/omegle/etc thing.

At least she’s nice, even if she talks like the most LOLSORANDOM 2009 Internet Girl.

...You can’t call me Tatsuya the whole game. You can’t. Aaaaaaa.

I’m having a stroke. Oh my god.

Anyway, Golden Week vacation is not a whole week, so it’s back to school on Thursday to guess my way through another class. At least I guessed right this time. But all my teachers continue to be completely ridiculous. None of them want to teach.

My education is suffering! Let’s go to track practice instead and worry about my physical health instead! Except wait, shit, Kaz has fallen down.

You are NOT fine! You collapsed!

He told his teammates he has anemia, but he confesses to Minato that his knee is fucked up. But he’s supposed to take over as team captain next year, and there’s a big national meet next year, so Minato has to keep it a secret.

Now I’m keeping secrets for TWO classmates. Good lord. Because Kenji wants me to keep it a secret that he’s gonna ask out the ethics teacher, so… grife. I guess I’m too used to P5, where most of my links involved making mutually beneficial deals. You guys are just… guys. XD Which isn’t bad, it’s just very different.

Anyway, Atlus, stop putting dudes on the track team and then giving them knee problems.

I’m also attending to my student council duties, and this dude needs to chill so bad.

Like… dude. The teachers at this school don’t give a shit, and you’re walking around like an army general.

My guy, it’s a single cigarette butt in the boys’ bathroom. This is not treason. Calm down. You’re gonna give yourself high blood pressure.

The manager of the track team walked home with us, and Minato got a new social link out of it. Which was interesting mostly just because it happened after track practice, so I got to do two things in one afternoon. Yuko is very nice, though.

I also went to the shrine to see the little girl, Maiko, and she pickpocketed my weird takoyaki and Mad Bull without actually asking. But I think that means that next time she’s there, she can be a social link too?

It’s been a day for social links, and the usual weird drinks.

I don’t know what happiness tastes like, but I’m suspicious as hell of that lemonade. It’s trying too hard to convince me. XD

The last thing I did around town was finally become courageous enough for Club Escapade! We are rocking out completely motionless up in the club.

I do like it here, though. And it gives me great reference pictures to use. XDDD I wish you had the option to dance, but nothing is perfect. I do wonder why the fortune-teller is in the nightclub, though. And the expensive accessory store???

The funny part is meeting the guy here so we can purchase URLs that lead to the dark web… and the first two lead to a random city rumor board, and an unofficial forum for the school. With… do we think this was renamed, or was it called this before and it’s just a call-forward?

SO. Now that we’ve stopped running around town, it’s the full moon, which means Mitsuru has detected another massive shadow! This one is camping out on the monorail leading to the island, so it’s going to be interesting getting there.

...like father, like son, lmao.

This was actually a pretty cool sequence. You do actually get to run down part of the tracks, but not before Junpei gets all pissy that Minato’s been put in charge again. As soon as you encounter the lesser shadows, he runs off to fight on his own.

It’s pretty clear what Junpei’s character arc is gonna be. We save his overconfident ass, and head for the front of the train.

Literally my worst nightmare, dude.

All the way at the front of the train, the Priestess shadow is driving it out of control, and looks… much more chill and tolerable than the Magician. XD It gives you a 30 minute time limit for the fight, which is fine… and then cuts that in half and in half again partway through. X’’’’D

I don’t do great with time limits. But we made it!

And did not die on the runaway train.

Hehehehe

Pharos promised to come see me afterwards, but he hasn’t yet. :(

Ah well, I guess, since I saved the world last night, I deserve to play my MMO all day on Sunday~

...I’m going to die. :’’’D

It is kind of funny how 2009 this is. You meet some random person online, and whoever they are, you just end up talking about random generic shit from your lives, no matter who’s an adult or who’s a teenager or whatever. In some ways, it was the best thing.

But now, time to log off. The phone is rin--

...never going to understand how the Velvet residents even have phones to call me with.

Anyway, I have been introduced to the Velvet door in Paulownia Mall, as well as Elizabeth’s requests. So next time, I guess it’s time to see what kind of nonsense she comes up with for me. But that’s two full moon shadows down, which means that barrier in Tartarus is down, too. So there will be lots to do!

Top 10 Favorite Young Justice Characters

10. Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle

Starting off the list is Blue Beetle. Young Justice introduced me to him, and I was hooked. He’s probably the most mellow and calming voice. His arc and relationship with Bart (friendship or not) were my favorite aspects of S2. They bounced off each other in every scene. I was very disappointed when Jaime and Bart were sidelined so much, and hope S4 changes this (particularly with Bart).

Jaime in the number 10 spot since he doesn’t really have much of a memorable personality. Still love him to bits though.

9. Will Harper/Red Arrow

Funny enough, I did not like Will. He was an asshole in S1; S2 kind of changed my mind about him but not enough since he didn’t appear as much. What really changed my mind was the episode “Private Security” (S3 Ep.4). I started looking back into Will’s storylines and, I have to admit, his is probably one of the best character development.

The first season had him unwillingly living a lie and betraying the people he cared for. In season 2 he was so consumed into finding the original Roy for five years, not even caring or focusing about his own life. I felt really bad for Will because he was probably going through an identity crisis and thought he couldn’t live his life without finding Arsenal. Probably felt guilty.

Seeing him living his own life and being happy with his daughter was so heartwarming. I smiled every time Will appeared in the latest season (totally ignoring the Will x Artemis fiasco), especially with Lian. I’m very proud of him.

I feel bad for putting him so low, yet I adore the next characters more.

8. Garfield Logan/Beast Boy

I have been a massive Beast Boy fan since Teen Titans so you probably can imagine how excited to see him. His origin story was unique and his brother-sister bond with M’gann was very sweet. It was pretty weird seeing how much younger Gar was than Dick, but I got used to it. I was bummed that Gar wasn’t in S2 as much; however, S3 truly made up for it.

After watching Beast Boy being a great leader in S5 of Teen Titans, I wanted a leader-like and more mature version of him. Young Justice truly delivered with Gar being the leader of the Outsiders. It’s nice to see him treated with respect rather than as a joke because that was my biggest gripe with Teen Titans. Though it was weird seeing him not crack a joke at all.

Gar’s story with his mom was heartbreaking to see. I literally cried seeing his reaction to revisiting his trauma in S2 and S3; I just wanted to hug and tell him how awesome he is. My only complaint with Gar in S3 was that the Outsiders weren’t established until near the end of the season.

His voice actor being Greg Cipes also gives him extra points (He’s a chill guy and radiates BB energy).

7. Dick Grayson/Nightwing/ Robin I

Sorry to all the hardcore Nightwing fans.

I love Dick (don’t get any ideas), but he doesn’t get enough development in the spotlight. One of the things I really wanted to see from him is his growth as a main leader, and his journey to becoming Nightwing. I was really bummed when these happened between the first two seasons.

To be honest, I don’t have as much to say about him other than straightforward qualities I enjoy about him.

1.His Voice (it’s so soothing)

2.His Personality (very charismatic)

3.Very Handsome (Probably in the top 3 my most handsome YJ Men list)

I put him higher than the others since he made a lot of contribution to the story and his new words (gotta love that aster!)

6. Megan Morse/M’gann M’orzz/Miss Martian

If I made this list during S1, M’gann would have probably been in my top 3 (maybe even No. 1), but S2 didn’t give her any brownie points.

I really liked S1 Miss Martian because of her kind heart, awkward girl next door personality. Her trouble fitting in the beginning reminded me of when I was going through a time in high school; seeing her having trouble as well helped me feel not so lonely. M’gann powers were (still are) my favorite since I am a big fan of mind-like powers. I would feel so powerful. Watching her identity crisis(?) arc was great too. I’ve had trouble feeling comfortable in my own skin as well as my social anxiety (I’m a mess) and I could understand how scared Megan was of her friends’ thoughts on her true form.

Oh boy. Season 2 basically ruined her. Learning what she would do to enemies was terrifying to see and left me wondering what happened to Miss Martian that made her step this far. What she almost did to Superboy was almost unforgivable. You do not try to manipulate with your boyfriend’s mind when you guys have an argument! Shame on you M’gann. If Superboy hadn’t forgiven you then I wouldn’t have either.

Good thing S3 somewhat redeemed her. Her kind heart was noticeable again and she refused to do that mind trick again (thank god). Very excited for the Superboy and Miss Martian wedding! Please creators, I beg of you to not skip over it. I want to cry my eyes out in happiness!

5. Kaldur’ahm/Aquaman/Aqualad

Now we’re in the top 5 with Aqualad (*ahem* Aquaman) starting it off.

Creating Kaldur was the best decision the creators ever did. I love him with all my heart!

He added diversity to the original team and was a great leader. S1 was not his breakout season, though the second season definitely was.

Kladur played the villain so well that he deserves an automatic Oscar. I never doubted that he was with the heroes, but he didn’t disappoint. My favorite part about Aqualad’s performance was when he rose from the ocean slowly like a cliché villain (he made it work), and the line he said right after he “killed” Artemis; it sent me chills. Love it!

Pretty disappointed that he didn’t appear as much in S3. Very happy that he is a part of the LGBTQ+ community and is in a happy relationship. I’m a part of the community and loved that there was finally some representation in one of my favorite shows. Even so, I have to criticize how rushed and sidelined it was. I hope Kaldur and Wyynde’s relationship gets development.

4. Kon-El/Conner Kent/Superboy

Like Will, I did not like Superboy at first. Mainly angry and volatile characters were never really my cup of tea. I do understand why he was upset and felt bad for him; I just handle anger the direct opposite as him. My love for Conner started growing around the end of S1. He was very sweet towards Miss Martian (bless him for not caring about her appearance) and his anger was in control.

Season 2 pretty much switched my opinions on him and M’gann. It was awful what M’gann almost did to him. That scene with him being so sad that what she did ruined that special bond they had almost made me cry. I wanted to give him a hug. He grew so much too since I don’t think he would have handled the whole M’gann drama as well in S1. A lot of furniture would’ve been broken.

I gotta admit something. I almost put Conner near the bottom (maybe no. 7). A comment in a poll in Amino changed my mind. I wrote a poll asking other fans who did they prefer SB or MM. At that point I said SB, though I didn’t think much of it. Someone (specifically yjfangirl) responded “Superboy has the best development in the show.” This had me thinking about how far SB has gone. In the beginning, Conner was an angry guy who felt alone and rejected by the person who he was meant to emulate. Now he is happier and living for himself rather than to be the next Superman. He’s getting married people! A little detail I noticed when rewatching S3 was Superboy mentioning to new characters that they weren’t obligated to be a hero because of their abilities. I adored this! The main reason why Superboy was created to be Superman if the original ever died, and another one of Luthor’s puppets. But he strayed from that pressuring path and is doing his own thing. Conner doesn’t want other people to feel like he did. What an absolute pure soul.

Also, yjfangirl, first I want to say Hi (*waves*)! Then say thanks for writing that comment. It made me really think about the bigger picture with SB and my love for him as grown exponentially. You probably didn’t mean to do that, but I still want to thank you. 😊

3.Wally West/Kid Flash

We’re in the elites now.

I don’t know how to explain it, I just love Wally. He makes me laugh, and his character growth was great. At first, Wally was this cocky flirt who didn’t take the hero work as seriously. That changed in “Cold-hearted,” one of my favorite episodes in the series. This was when I really started seeing more of Wally than being this dumb flirt. It was great seeing him actually caring about helping people since I believed for a long time that he wanted to be a superhero to just have powers rather than actually protect others. The regret in his eyes when he thought his impulsive behavior killed Perdita helped me see who he really was- this somewhat arrogant speedster who had a kind heart. Episodes that can make me change my perspective on characters are truly special.

I was very upset that he wasn’t in S2 a lot. I understand why since he gave up the life, but I was still bummed. Seeing him being so loving and protective towards Artemis was amazing. Spitfire is my favorite ship and I will not give up on them. All I want is a happy ending! The penultimate episode of S3 was a hint that it will happen. Watching the S2 finale was heartbreaking, I cried watching him disappear, his love for Artemis being the last things he said. Artemis’ reaction did not(I just wanted to hug her).

I have more to say, though I’m leaving it for another post. 😉

2.Bart Allen/Kid Flash II/Impulse

Picking between Bart and Wally for second place was tough. Took me a while to decide; I’ll talk about it later on.

The moment Bart made his appearance, I absolutely adored him. He is amazing and I live for his hyper, fun attitude. His arc and relationship with Jaime were my favorite aspects of S2. What can I say, their chemistry is great to see.

That scene when he was meeting the Flash family was so adorable. His excitement was infectious and spoiling his dad and aunt’s births was hilarious! I watch it occasionally whenever I need a good laugh or reason to smile.

Unlike most time travelers- at least the ones I’ve seen- Bart was very involved with what was going on and befriended his biggest enemy- evil and weirdly huge future Blue Beetle. He was pretty careful about disclosing very important information and took things very seriously. You never know if disclosing everything was the thing that brought the world to chaos.

What I found interesting was his choice on how to interact with everyone. He seemed pretty gloomy in the future, but decided to portray this cheerful, devil-may-care attitude to be more likable. I understood (still kind of do). I had terrible mental health issues and I pretended to be happy in front of loved ones because I thought they wouldn’t care about me anymore. Bart got some brownie points for that.

I was dissatisfied when his role was greatly reduced. I wanted the creators to go further with Bart by revealing his past and how it affected him. He was pretty much comedy relief. You couldn’t imagine how disappointed I was, especially with it involving my second favorite character. Season 4 better change that.

I know that you shouldn’t assume a character’s sexuality, yet I really hope Bart is gay. There needs to be more clear representation and Bart can be one of them. I’m also a Bluepulse and Bartuado shipper (fine with either one as long as Bart’s bond with each of them stays strong).

Anyway, I mentioned that I would explain why I chose Bart for 2nd place over Wally. It mostly stems from wishful thinking. I really want S4 to have Bart as a main character since I believe the future will be strong plot point in the season. Development could surely happen such as Bart opening up more about what he went through. Let all those feelings go.

I’m going to write an article on my hopes for S4 when a release date is announced. Bart and Wally will most definitely be talked about.

…..

We are finally near the end!

And my No. 1 favorite character is…

Drumroll please!

…

1.Artemis Crock/Tigress/Artemis

That’s right people!

Artemis Crock, original member of the Team and daughter of villains!

She is such an inspiration to anyone who wants to go their own past without their parents’ support.

It’s hard to describe how much I love Artemis. She’s brave, strong-willed, and a kind person. It’s crazy how great of a person she is after all the terrible things that happened to her. I look up to her because I don’t have a healthy relationship with my parents (verbal and mental abuse) and there are times I don’t feel strong enough to stand on my own. I want to carry the amount of strength Artemis has as my own.

After all that happened in S2, it was amazing to see Artemis come back to the team and train the new generation. It must have been hard to walk away from a safe, comfortable life for a chaotic, dangerous life. I admire that in everyone, but I hold more respect for Artemis since “the life” “killed” Wally. I wanted to hug her so bad.

She’s also one of the kindest people in the show, the events in S3 being the best example. When Zatanna was crying about her dad, Artemis was there to comfort her. It was so sweet! Roy and her also took in Halo and Terra like they were a part of the family; the archer treated them like the best big sister. That rainstorm scene was heartwarming to the core.

Wouldn’t Artemis be an amazing mother? Lian and her have a strong bond like a mother and daughter; I loved it, and Lian is in good hands with Roy and Artemis. Though Jade deserves a chance to be a mother. Artemis also seemed to enjoy taking care of those kids in that S1 episode. Wally too. You guys know what I’m guys insinuating. 😉

Get ready for some fanfics on that someday.

My favorite Artemis-centered episode was the second to last episode of S3. I was waiting for this episode centering around Artemis missing Wally and learning to move on. It was great yet heartbreaking. Nothing bad happened. That Will and Artemis kiss never happened. Everyone makes a mistake. No matter how terrible it was.

Anyway, seeing Artemis and Wally living their lives and having a baby gave me life, even if it was fake. It was a vision of the future. I will believe this until there is confirmation that Wally will not come back.

Did anyone else cry when Artemis was so desperate to, but Wally wouldn’t let that happen (the real Wally would do that)? They are a great example of a healthy relationship with all the love and support they have for each other. I want that.

圍爐

A/N: it’s cold and I miss being able to have people around for hot pot AND it’s the last ep of the inarizaki season so you just know I have to do it (yes all of these interactions are based on things my friends do when we hot pot lmao)

Pairing: platonic!Inarizaki x reader, even though a lot of the more minor characters only got a mention and you are only there for the sake of being there lmao

Description: Friends who hot pot together stay together.

Word count: 1394

Someone said that a team that never eats hot pot together will never become a true team. You did not know who said it, but whoever did must be a freaking mastermind.

The Inarizaki volleyball club was always busy, even right after the first of the two major tournaments they had to break through in the year. Second place was good, but they had no intention of stopping at what they had achieved yesterday. Winter break meant waking up at the break of dawn each morning to go back to school when all your friends were probably still sleeping soundly in their beds, the wind slicing across your face like blades as you struggled on your way back to the school gymnasium.

You had contemplated whether suggesting if mangers (as in, you, the one manager they had) should be allowed to arrive late or just not show up at all, but the guilt of walking in everyday to see the boys already in midst of preparing for practice always made you suck the bit of reluctance in you all the way down until it was resting in the depths of your lungs.

Kita brought up the idea of having the whole team over at his house for dinner at a passing, something he let slip mindlessly while packing up the nets a few days before the last training session of the holidays. His grandma wanted to go on an onsen trip with some old friends, so it would just be him at home for the night and it might be a nice get together activity for everyone to come over.

“We could have hot pot.”

He said so casually, like it was just an idea that popped up out of nowhere and in face, it was. Kita was just bringing it up tentatively, more so talking to himself then announcing it to everyone.

But it seems like his teammates were always the most attentive when food was involved in the conversation.

“Kita san’s house? I want to go!”

“Hot pot at Kita san’s place!”

“Miya! Don’t just hand the balls to me- hey! You two-”

Ginjima’s cries were ignored as the two shoved everything they were holding onto his arms to rush to their captain’s side, letting out a huge sigh when Suna took one step further away from him when he was about to look for help. The Miya’s eyes were practically sparkling at the mention, looking like a tail was about to grow out of their backs as they towered over Kita in excitement.

So it was settled, the entire team would go over to the Kita residence for hot pot on the last day of break.

“Are you sure this is going to be a good idea?” you questioned in concern as you watched them cheer.

“Why not?” Kita shook his head gently as he smiled, “they seems happy.”

They were happy as long as they got to do the eating, you gulped down the urge to let your words loose. But you were looking forward to it yourself, there were not many chances where you got to just spend time with the rest of the club.

Next year, or maybe just after spring, it would not be the same group of people gathering around the stove anymore.

Whatever chaos you were envisioning, you thought to yourself as a loud shout from across the gym that you vaguely made out to be Ojiro’s voice and took to the presumption that it was targetted at the twins rang in your ear, it could not be that bad.

“Samu,” the setter hissed at his twin as he held the metal laddel in his hand, “you are not going to eat hot pot with rice.”

“What?” his twin huffed as he let the lid of the rice cooker bounced back with a hard hit on its button, “Why are you looking down on rice? Huh?”

“Osamu, I want a bowl too.”

“You too?” Atsumu yelled as you held out your bowl to the boy who was mixing up the rice with his rice spoon.

“I said,” Osamu scooped out a large chunk of rice before angrily plopping it down in your bowl. You took the ceramic from him with a nod of thanks, elbowing the boy who was half laying on the floor and lazily scrolling through his phone as he waited for the water to boil. “what has rice ever done to you?”

“It’s not a matter about rice-”

“Then what is it then?”

“Who do you think will win this one?” you whispered, taking a small bite of your rice as Suna slowly crawled back up with the support of his palm on the table.

“Not sure,” he replied with a sigh, fixing his posture so that he was crouching on the table this time, “Osamu gets scary when food is involved.”

The answer was neither, because a large palm pressed onto the twins’ heads put the two foxes into their places. “Cut it, you two,” Ojiro sighed as he put down the plates of beef on the table before checking the pot to see if there was still much soup left, but not without giving the younger boys’ dyed hair a good rub.

Why did those two never learn that bickering in the confines of Kita’s house was never near being a good idea?

“Keep eating rice with everything and you’re going to turn into a pig!”

“Ha? What right do you have to judge me when you are the one getting out of shape?”

“Who are you calling ‘out of shape’-”

“Do not,” a cold voice sent chills down your spine as it echoed into your ear, effectively freezing the boys who were inching closer and closer to each other before setting off a complete brawl in place as he let the plate landed on the table with a calm clink, “fight in the middle of a meal.”

Ginjima, who just sat down after finishing his vegetable-cutting duty in the kitchen, did not bother to hide his snicker as the twins reluctantly let the other person go and murmured as soft apology. Oomimi sighed, taking his chopsticks from Akagi who just laughed.

One lift of the lid had the smoke spilling out and clouding over the light above your heads.

“Should be reheated properly,” Kita said as he nonchalantly pushed the wooden chopstick around in the broth, “I wasn’t expecting the soup to go out so quickly.” Clipping the floating piece of shiitake mushroom, he placed it in Riseki’s bowl with a flick of his wrist and the youngest boy took a quick reaction to nod.

You were still smiling at the exchange when a wave of his nimble fingers in front of your vision landed a piece of mutton in your bowl, and you immediately nodded.

“Eat more,” Kita said as he pulled his hand away, before his chopsticks dipped back into the broth to pull out some other food and put it in someone else’s bowl.

“Eat more.”

He almost said it like a ritual as he went around the circle of people at the sides of the stove, putting an especially large piece in Osamu’s bowl which gained a groan from Atsumu who only shut up when Kita also added more to his while Kosaku commented that he could have just refill his own bowl with a grin.

Kita only looked up from the boiling pot when a familiar thump landed in his own bowl.

“Don’t just keep telling us to eat,” Ojiro grinned as he tapped the rim of KIta’s bowl to make a point, pointing at the piece of tofu that he had just put in there,” you eat more too.”

Kita’s gaze flicked up from the steam rising from the tofu, to his friend who was smiling ear to ear, to the sight of you laughing at the how Osamu had to make the effort to steal food out of Atsumu’s bowl, to Suna’s phone being taken away by a very agile Akagi, to the rest of his team just there and being happy.

Yeah, they probably didn’t need him to remind them anything.

“Thank you,” he beckoned to Ojiro, before taking a bite of his own food.

It was cold outside, but around the pot where all your friends sat, it was very, very warm.

Arguments and Nail Polish- Agere!Sides AU (pt.31)

A/N: This was supposed to be angsty,,,,and it was,,,,until the end.....when it got to sad and I decided to get a plot point over with to lighten the mood. Warning, after this chapter, there’s gonna be some calm/resolving chapters and then....well, y’know the saying ‘the calm before the storm’? keep it in mind, folks. Also, spoilers for the new ep from the other day!

ALSO! TW: There’s yelling, Virgil specifically at Roman, I promise it’s just an argument, that’s important to the plot, and there’s not much damage done.

Virgil knew that the mindscape was gonna be a whole mess once everyone got back. There's a reason him and Remus skipped out on the group discussion to hang out in the tower. No surprise, they found a way to spy on them. Virgil was currently waiting with Remus for Deceit to come back. Janus. He could call him Janus now.

Janus appeared just outside of the radius of the tower, loosing his balance for a second before running towards the door of the tower.

It took a few minutes, and a very out-of-breath Janus, to run up those stairs and get to the top of the tower.

"You told them!" Remus jumped up when Janus finally appeared.

"And you acted like an absolute dork," Virgil snorted. Deceit rolled his eyes, giving a chuckle and hugging Remus.

"Well, things are going good for me. Roman isn't doing well though...." he trailed off, looking at Virgil.

"I know, and I'm kind of of the edge about all this. He just said the other day he was okay with you, and now he's going back on that. Is it terrible if I said that I'm just a little bit mad at him?" Virgil seemed kind of panicky, biting at his lip.

"You have every right to be upset, Vee. Have you guys even had as much as an argument since you've begun dating?" Remus questioned,taking his seat on the small desk against the wall.

"N-no. Not really. I can tell he needs comfort, but at the same time...it's just, ugh," Virgil groaned.

"I'm sure things will turn out fine. Patton was really nice to me, and Logan was the one that summoned me, so those two are coming around. Even if it's really, really slowly," Janus seemed like he was glowing, a smile clear on his face.

"That's good," Virgil pulled one of the wooden chairs to the corner of the room where Remus sat on the desk. "Janus, I do wanna say one thing. And I don't want you to get mad at me, okay?" he spoke hesitantly, watching Deceit pull his chair up to sit with them.

"Yeah?"he seemed nervous, waiting for a response.

"You compared Roman to Remus, and you know that isn't fair. How Roman acted towards you wasn't okay, but that wasn't okay either," Virgil sighed.

"I-uh...," Janus paused, looking down. "I don't have an explanation...when he laughed at me-"

"It was you lashing out to defend yourself, and the fact that you're recognizing that you were wrong is good. I'm not upset with you, but I can't pretend you did nothing wrong, either," Deceit nodded, sitting down.

"So, Vee, are you gonna crash here for the night, or go home and hope nothing bad happens?" Remus questioned.

"If I don't go home, everyone will question if I'm okay. Plus, I haven't slept here in ages, it'll feel weird...but I don't wanna go in without backup," Virgil sighed, glancing between the two of them.

"I mean, I'd come, but that's drama and I don't wanna deal with it," Remus shook his head, "I wish you two the best of luck. If you really need me, you can find me somewhere in the imagination, or in this tower."

"I'll come," Janus decided, "it'll be like a sleepover or whatever. We can chill, like we used to," he gave a shrug.

Virgil got up, stretching for a moment before helping Janus up out of his seat. "Prepare for the worst," he began. Janus took his hand, sitting up and smirking.

"hope for the best." he finished, and the two headed down the steps together. This was gonna be okay, right? Roman wouldn't freak out over the fact that Janus was with him, even if he melted down at the sight of him not that long ago, right?

Wrong. Roman was gonna freak out, which Virgil should've predicted. But we can't see the future, now can we?

"Why did you bring him here? Where were you?" Roman answered the door, his eyes wildly going back and forth between Janus and Virgil.

"I was at the tower while you were having a meltdown, and I brought him with me because I have every right to do so," Virgil snarkily replied, not giving Janus the chance to speak.

"He's right, as long as Decei-...Janus," Logan corrected himself, "doesn't start anything, he's welcome to stay here."

Roman didn't move, guarding the door. "Roman, I know you're upset, but let them in," Patton instructed, nudging him to the side. Virgil and Janus took the chance to duck into the house.

"You're seriously gonna let him stay here? Did you guys forget that he's evil, we don't like him, remember?" he tried grasping at something to convince the others. Janus bit his tongue, trying to avoid starting conflict with him.

"You don't like him, the rest of us are adjusting. Just a few days ago you were fine with him," Virgil spoke up. "What changed, princey?" he raised an eyebrow.

Roman stayed silent for a moment. "He just-....I was trying to accept his purpose, but it goes against what I am. I'm supposed to convince Thomas to be a selfless hero, and he represents selfishness in general."

"He does not represent selfishness, he represents self-preservation." Logan corrected.

"Why are you taking their side?" Roman scoffed, motioning to Virgil and Janus.

"Don't pull him into this, Ro." Virgil spoke, giving him a glare that Roman hasn't seen in a long time. "You need to get a grasp on something we all accepted today. Thomas is allowed to be selfish sometimes, and you have absolutely no right to act the way you are to Janus. We all were mean, but at least we're trying."

Roman gave another huff. Deceit seemed shocked and sort of impressed at how Virgil was standing up for himself and Janus. "So no one is gonna defend me? You're just gonna let him scream at me?"

"You're acting just as bad towards him," Virgil motioned at Deceit, who took his hand and tugged on it lightly. Virgil looked at him and gave a nod. "I'm done here, it's whatever for now."

Virgil and Janus disappeared down the hallway. Roman stood there silently. Logan left quietly to go to his room. "Hey, Kiddo," Patton spoke softly to the sensitive Roman, approaching his and rubbing his shoulder.

"Heyyy, Pat," Roman leaned into the touch, and Patton pulled him into a hug.

"I know you're not exactly happy about all this, but you understand why Virgil's upset, right?" he asked once pulling away from the hug. Roman paused, giving a weak nod.

"Oh, god. I need to apologize to them...like I'm really just terrible, huh?" he seemed annoyed with himself.

"Roman, no. You're adjusting different than everyone else. And how you just acted wasn't okay, but you were taken over by emotions and you shouldn't beat yourself up about it. You know what you should do, though?"

Roman looked at him, tilting his head slightly. "You should give him a little space, and also think over how you're gonna apologize. Understand that Deceit is just as much a part of Thomas as we are, and that he's just as needed. You might not like him, but he's not evil," Patton told him, speaking softly and in a comforting way.

"They hate me," he groaned.

"No, they're rightfully upset with you. It doesn't mean they hate you, it just means that Virgil doesn't appreciate you treating Deceit the way you did today. It's gonna be okay, we love you, and I can promise this will blow over," Patton took his hand and pulled him towards the kitchen.

"I still don't like him, though," Roman commented, rolling his eyes a bit.

Patton pulled a chair out from under the table, pushing Roman to sit. "Why not? Weren't you and Virgil happy to see them? What changed?"

"I-i don't know," Roman whined, rubbing his face and watching patton pull out all the needed ingredients for oatmeal.

"Roman, I screwed up today too, bud. W-we both did, but I need you to get over the idea that anyone you don't like is bad. You laughed at Janus's name, don't you realize how not-good that is?"

"Patton, I'm sorry! I need to get over myself, think about this, and talk it out with Virgil tomorrow. I'm not feeling great, Virgil and I have never argued this bad since we've begun dating," Roman casted his eyes down as Patton started to boil the water on the stove.

Patton softened his face. "I'm sorry for that. You'll be able to fix this though, I'm sure of it," Patton gave a weak smile. For the next few minutes, he silently waited for the water to boil before he poured it into the bowl with oats.

"Uh, Pat? Do I have to apologize to Janus too?" Roman took over a slightly more innocent tone. Patton didn't know if he was regressing from emotional stress, so he spoke softly just incase.

"I'm not saying you have to do anything. Just do what you think is right, and I'm sure it'll all fall into place," Patton finished mixing the food in the bowl, moving to add sugar and cinnamon.

"O-okay. I'm sorry that I was kind of mean to you, before I ducked out...I know you guys love me."

"You weren't mean, you were just emotional," he put the sugar and cinnamon back in the cabinet, replacing all the other ingredients where they were supposed to go. "But I appreciate the apology. Now, I know this is a less than typical night, but I still want you to eat something, alright?"

He set the bowl in front of Roman, who nodded, loosely taking the spoon in his hands. "Thanks," his voice faded from the innocent tone, so if he was regressing before, he'd managed to banish the headspace temporarily.

Patton then went down the hall to Virgil's room, lightly knocking on the door. "Who is it?" Virgil called from the other side.

"It's Pat, Vee," Patton replied. He heard light whispering and shuffling.

"Uh, you can come in!" Virgil spoke finally. Patton came inside to the sight of Janus shaking his hands quickly. He closed the door behind him with a chuckle.

"Whatcha doing, kiddos?"

"Nothing, absolutely nothing at all," Virgil seemed to be lightly blushing. He was quick to wipe the lip gloss that was on his lips away.

"Yeah, we totally weren't giving each other makeovers," Janus tried to back him up, but he was unsuccessful, Virgil nudging his shoulder in annoyance.

"Lip gloss and nail polish? Virge, you never do this stuff," Patton commented, coming to climb on the bed.

Deceit laid his hands in his lap to let the black and yellow polish dry. "I'm stressed out, and Dee says that a temporary distraction is better than inducing a panic attack, sooo..."

"It is," Patton gave a thankful glance towards Janus, who gave a weak smile. "You think you're gonna be alright? I talked to Roman, I think I got what you were trying to say through to him."

"I'll be alright. I'm not looking forward to talking to him, and I feel bad for yelling. Really bad," Virgil gave a soft pout, seemingly worried.

"That might not of been the best way to handle it, but he upset you. You both seem to wanna fix things, but for tonight, think it over, yeah? And then tomorrow, or whenever you're ready, you can fix it then," Patton pulled Virgil into a hug. For a moment, he was confused, before hugging him back and melting into the embrace.

"Is he okay?" Virgil questioned once the man pulled away.

Patton gave a nod, "Emotional and stressed, but he ate, and I'll make sure to get him to bed early. I'll take care of him until you guys figure it out, yeah?"

"If he regresses, let me know," Virgil said casually, his eyes widening. Patton glanced at Janus, who didn't react.

"Oh...OH! I definitely didn't know that all four of you are littles. Nope, Virgil didn't tell me."

"Dee!" Virgil groaned, looking back at Patton. "When he took care of me, he saw your guy's little gear, and he kind of put the pieces together, I just clarified. I'm sorry," Virgil was quick to apologize.

"It would be different if you didn't know he was supportive. Yeah, maybe you should've talked to us, but he basically knew. It's better to explain then leave him confused. I don't mind him knowing, but he might need to reassure Roman and Logan that he doesn't find it weird and all," Patton assured Virgil.

"Why would I find it weird, I'm a little my-.....uh, nevermind," Deceit gave a light cough, suddenly finding his drying nail polish very interesting.

Patton looked to Virgil, who nodded. "He's a little," Janus gave a somewhat-playful glare.

"Awe, really? I didn't know that!" Patton cooed, and Deceit scrunched his nose, the human half of his face blushing. He hummed.

"Uh, yeah. Virgil was my caregiver back then, so yeah," he gave a light shrug.

"Well, I'm gonna go make sure Roman gets some sleep, and then check on my boyfriend. Don't stay up to late, and please make yourself something before you go to bed. If you want me to make you something, come find me and I won't hesitate," he went to get up, but Virgil pulled him back down to hug him again.

"You? Initiating affection with someone besides your boyfriend when you're not little?" Patton joked, and Virgil pulled away, rolling his eyes.

Patton looked to Janus, who seemed to be feel awkward. "Do you want a hug too, Janus?" he tilted his head.

"Definitely not," Janus gave a scoff that was less real than Logan's ability to not take Virgil to literally during any given conversation.

Within seconds he was engulfed into a soft embrace, melting into the touch and smiling lightly. When Patton pulled away, he walked to the door.

Before walking out, he said, "Night, Kiddos!"

And with that, he left.

Maybe, Janus thought, these 'light sides' weren't so bad.

BoB live blog ep 2!

Episode 2: Day of days.

And now for some shameless self-promotion: I named the restaurant in my BoB restaurant!au fanfic Jour des Jours, which according to google translate is French for day of days. It was a French restaurant. See what I did? I’m so smart. Any way it’s on AO3 if you wanna read it – Speirton have sex in a wine cellar. That’s the only thing I remember because tbh what else matters?

22:29 Ah. Poor horses </3 The boys had to make do I guess…

22:50 Lieb <3

23:01 Buck’s here too, thank God

23:14 Lord, thank you for his eyes

23:15 Look I feel like the most important issue has not been addressed WHERE THE FUCK IS RICH?

23:26 Dick’s like oh fuck I hope not. Except Dick Winters would never swear

23:32 Speirs! His smile is so creepy.

23:36 Speirs is like I don’t know, and I don’t care, it’s fine. I’m a one-man platoon, everyone else would just slow me down.

23:43 DON’T GIVE THEM TO HIM BUCK

24:03 No baby, you won’t.

25:15 Is Joe/Charlie still fixated on getting to Berlin to shank Hitler? Probably

25:58 Lol Speirs is so nosy

27:00 Aw but he bonded with you! Aw baby </3

27:15 Mood, tbh. Lip is literally the only Easy boy I would trust with TNT.

28:05 I don’t know why but this makes me lol. Stop playing hide and seek in the car, Dick

29:57 That’s my aesthetic. Lip and blossoms.

30:13 Speirs, your boy needs you!

31:04 There’s so much happening so fast, I can’t keep up. Which is probably on purpose.

31:21 OK I’M SO SORRY BUT THE “FUCK! MY ASS!” SUBTITLE STAYED ON MY SCREEN FOR THE LONGEST TIME AND I LOST MY SHIT LAUGHING

31:39 Aw, Pop, baby

32:12 So stressful. Again.

32:29 Buck’s like oh cool that’s sick, lemme see

33:05 BUCK! Be careful!

33:18 Joe/Charlie is not having a good time right now. You know what would make things better for him? IF RICH WAS THERE. WHERE. IS. RICH.

34:13 He got his brass knuckles at last, so there’s that.

35:00 Malark!!

35:10 YOU IDIOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING

35:30 Lip’s busy being mum, give him a sec

35:55 Love you Moriarty

37:02 I just. The camera. Like shaking and mirroring his running and you can just feel the desperation and the frantic emotions and you can’t tell what’s happening because HE can’t tell what’s happening and it’s all just so rushed and scary and such a scramble and I.

37:38 Noooo

38:02 NOOOOOOOOOO

38:06 Not your fault Dick

38:26 I gasped

38:42 Ohhhh lookey here

38:55 Aw Lip

39:04 JFC. SPEIRS. MY DUDE. ISTG. He just springs up out of nowhere with a pile of ammo. (Also his fingers? JFC Lord have mercy). I feel like he is just SO. EXCITED. TO. KILL. So terrifying.

39:47 LMAO ohhh Lip <3 Your BF is here now, it’s fine.

41:09 I wish my husband would roll in on a tank. Actually no. No I don’t. I would be very concerned and would tell him to put it back where he found it.

41:12 FLIRTING. AGAIN. It’s almost cute enough to distract me from the fact that I HAVEN’T SEEN RICH IN A LONG TIME I AM NOT CONTENT. I do feel like it’s key that that is legit the first thing Nix does upon seeing Dick alive and well <3

42:25 Aw boys. I loved this whole scene.

43:22 Aw lol Dick

43:41 LMFAO GET WRECKED BILL

43:56 Dick your husband is calling you, pay attention

44:11 “Don’t ever get a cat” LMAO. Let your husband open the can, Dick. Aw I love that Nix knows already something is wrong and Dick is upset.

44:47 NIX GO TO HIM

44:55 You will save more people, Dick </3

46:00 Baby

46:30 DESERVED

Guys I would like to file an official complaint about the lack of Rich.

But God.

This episode. Play time and training time and running around Taccoa and Pottery barn in England with Ross the douchebag, that’s all in the past. Now it’s all real </3

New Episode Reactions!!! Pt 1

AHHH, I have so many feelings ya'll!! This episode was so awesome and the art was absoulty suberp! Thomas and the whole crew worked so hard to get this out and it really paid off! I just wanted to run through all the amazing things in this ep now that I've watched it once!

I'm warning you now this is mostly just me gushing about amazing and great everything is because it's very amazing and great! Strap in for spoiler central!!!

First of all the thumbnail is just amazing

Starting off with Thomas being incredibly relatble and awkward, we love to see it!

ROMAN!!!!

VIRGIL!!!!!

I love that this confirms that the sides just pop up in Thomas's day to day life and bully him, it's great

Side notw: I love how the artists drew Thomas in this, he looks adorable

OMG prinxiety poping out the godamn clothing hanging thing to call thomas old makes me very happy

I love that this whole episode is Virgil and Roman bonding, it is fabulos.

"DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT I LOVE YOU MEANS TO THEM?"

"You told me to say it!"

"STOP PLAYING YOU PEOPLE'S HEARTS THOMAS"

I love this so much

There is a whole lot of lying here but I have yet to spot a single snake boi :(

I know Jan had a whole thing last episode but like... I miss him :(((

HEART EYES ROMAN!!!!! BEING SO GODAMN DRAMATIC!!!! I LOVE HIM SO MUCH

"*long poetic description of feelings*"

"What?"

"*SIGH* Cutie at twelve-o-clock."

Prinxeity's dual calling of bullshit when Thomas says he's not interested

WHY IS ROMAN ME WHEN I SEE A CUTE GIRL IN PUBLIC

Virgil pulling fucking boniculars just out of nowhere

"He's got some stickers on his laptop."

"Pretty gay~" *finger gun*

Virgil laying down introvert laws on stickers is great and very true (in unrelated news, I need to buy more stickers for my laptop)

Nico's a disney fan too!!!!

I kind of love that it was the Nightmare Before Chrismas sticker that sealed the deal for them because it's something that's very Roman and also very Virgil

Also how can you not take that sticker as clear sign from the universe that this will end in roman and happily ever afters, I'm with Roman here (when am I not tho?)

"You can live like Jack and Sally..."

I don't why Virgil calling Roman doofus is so funny and dorky to me but it is and I love it. I want them to get along but I want to keep the banter and little insults that don't mean much

"Why forget your spectacles at the retirment home?"

"Those jokes are getting old..."

"You would know..."

I love the gentle bullying

YOU SEE SOME BUTTONS; YOU BUTTON IT!!!!!

PINTERVERTS!!!!

THIS IS WHY I LOVE SEEING THESE INTERACTING!!!!

Seeing Roman and Virgil with the head sets and mics really makes me want to like make a rodio hosts AU, they'd defintly be interesting pair to listen to. Oh! or like a podcast thing or something! I'd listen to it!

Also the backseat driving from prinxiety is great

"I'M NOT MAX! I'M PRINCE ROMAN -"

Also that godamn, you got five seconds thing gave ME anxciety

"great."

"great indeed."

"GREAT INDEED!"

boiled. mayo. carrots. what the heck thomas.

"The only logical next step. Go home and regret everything." Virge, buddy, pal, chill for like five seconds.

"No man!"

"Uh, it's RO-man. With an R? You're really struggling today."

Ro, buddy, pal, princey, never change.

"When it comes to anti-social etiquette, I'm a triple expert. An ex-ex-expert!"

"Easy tiger" This is flirting right? This is defintly flirting. They are flirting!

GAY EYES!!!!

Roman doing the gay eyes and the little noises AHHHH, I'm dying, i'm deceased, my ghost is writing this

Side note: I'm really tempted to become a patron just to see the live action version of this scene alone, imagine my friends, imagine

Gay eyes have never worked for me either

DISASTOR!

"No DO look at youself Thomas. Because that was a test and you failed!"

"You were testing me!?!?!"

"Oh no, I was just panicking."

I love them

I also love all of Virgil's instenseness in this episode because honestly very relatable to my own anxiety but also the art was just really great

“If you don’t have anything nice to say... you’re a dirty lier.”

God the whole pretend you’re leaving was so funny and gave me such secondhand embrassement, it was so good

“I hate to rain on your black parade, Gerard Gay -”

I missed him and his nicknames SO MUCH

Virgil and Roman literally pulling Thomas around and making him sit and stand is just so funny to me. it’s like Roman and Logan fighting over control of Thomas’s arms

“You’re making a mistake!”

“If I am I’ll add it to the list!”

Oh. My heart. Roman, darling, no -

Again with the pushing, guys

This poor random passerby who got accosted by Thomas’s awkwardness. I hope they had a good day at the mall at least

THE TRASH CAN!!!!

I love that it’s not just Thomas in the trash can but all three of them

This is another scene I would LOVE to see live action

“You were being a baby about the buttons and the pins had you panicking.”

It’s nice to see Roman helping Thomas get clean in the bathroom

“He’s got birds on the brain! You don’t wanna wing it, Virge? Alright let’s drum up a plan!”

I love the puns but I love Roman trying to help Virge feel better about this more even tho they didn’t end up going with this

“It’s like cyber-stalking but real life”

“So... stalking”

“... OH YOU’RE RIGHT!”

Virgil, sweetie, you’re doing amazing

“Speaking from the heart” Patton, buddy, is that you?

THE MONOLOGUE!!!!

“The mall is where you go when you don’t know what you want because the mall has everything...”

Roman’s face at that line really killed me fam. He is going through some stuff, huh

Actually Roman’ and Virgil’s faces during the whole speech really killed me

OMG THE DUDE IN THE BATHROOM!!!!

All those theories about the next ep being Ro & Virge bonding through mutual dislike of Janus were sorta right

Also it’s interesting that Virgil is clearly talking about Janus but is still calling him Deciet

Also generally enjoying the calm Prinxeity team up and discussion for once

“No, he’s better off without me.”

AH no, thomas!

Damn I’m so used to Sides Angst the character thomas angst really hit me by the wayside

GAY PANIC

NICO!!!!!

“HE FEARS THINGS TOO!?”

THE GAY PANIC!!!!

“I THINK I SAW A LOT OF WIDE VOWELS?”

“NEVADA????”

“MORE THAN THAT!”

“ANACONDA?????”

“ANACONDA!!!!! HE’S A NIKKI MINHAJ FAN!!!!”

They are such disaster gays

Mishearing the guy and then instead of asking for a repeat, just going along with it is so terribly terribly relatable but god the second hand embrasment

“another chance at happiness squandered.”

break my heart why doncha ya

The whole sequence of Virgil noticing Roman being so godamn sad and miserable and watching Nico walk away and his breathing speeding up and the wide eyed panic before he pushes thomas is literally my favorite part of the whole damn video! that wasn’t easy for him to do but he did it. for roman and thomas. so that didn’t squader another chance. he was so brave and i’m so proud of him

I really love Nico! He seems so chill and adorable and he took thomas’s flutered rambling so well! and he’s a writer!!! and he winked at thomas!!!

Mr. Florez!!!!

He’s writing a song!!!!!

The song explanation calling thomas out is kind of adorable

this whole meet cute is kind of adorable

“THAT WAS YOU?” “ARE YOU OKAY?”

brusied ego, aw does that mean Patton’s gonna be taking care of Ro like the last time Thomas got a brusied ego

MY SECOND FAVORITE PART OF THE VIDEO: Ro’s soft little “Shut up, emo” and the little hearts and his hand on Virgil’s shoulder and Virgil’s little smile at him and the whole calling Virge brave!!! It was all so so so good!!!!

End Card Time!!!!!

Thomas calling Roman a punk is adorable

Also Janus’s Corridor Of Stored Rewards!!! Amazing

Everyone coming back all excited and giddy really matched my own excitement and giddiness and I love it

LITERAL SCREAMS OF JOY

Virgil’s purple sparkly eyeshadow because he’s happy is so so pure and amazing and I kind of want to try out that look myself

“Thomas I’m gonna need you to walk around the entire room - yes thank you- that helps somehow”

even more things to project onto Virgil with, thank you

I haven’t seen Virgil smile this much in one episode before and it is really watering my crops, clearing my skin, rasing my grades, saving my whole ass year -

The dark eyeshadow returning at Thomas’s subtweet is great and very relatable

Virgil asking what is things are never the same again but with light eyeshadow and the clearly more hopeful outlook on things makes me so very happy

I love Roman being excited but like we don’t see virgil so giddy nearly as often and it’s just so heartwarming

Roman trying to get them to go to France on V-day and Virge actually going along with the idea!!!

Virgil telling Thomas to do the happy flappies!!!!

Virgil’s face at ‘are u ready for this’ kills me

But the deepening panic voice when the dog barks and his reaction to Ro telling him to relax was great

in summary: I though based on the title this was going to be the other sides flirting with Virgil and honestly I wasn’t that far off

#sanders sides #thomas sanders #nico florez #roman sanders #virgil sanders #flirting with social anxiety #ts spoilers #prinxiety #platonic prinxiety #romantic prinxiety #what's the ship name for Tommy boi and Nico?#Thomco #?#Floanders #??? i guess

about aomg: personality / your opinion about them thanks!

Loco: Just chill (until he gets drunk). He minds his own business and stays out of trouble. He doesn’t really have any negative traits but he seems like he’s really bad at talking to women he likes (lol watch some clips of him and Hwasa speaking. I think it was on “I Live Alone” or something? It was really awkward). He’s been around A LONG time and still hasn’t caused any drama. He won season 1 of SMTM so that’s a long time to keep your head out of trouble (at least for a rapper). Not the biggest fan of his music but I REALLY like the stuff he does with Gray. Him and Gray are literally a dream team. CoRay is what Jay/Sik-K could be if they made a unit lol.

Gray: REALLY handsome obviously so let’s just get that out of the way now. He’s really talented as well. He can do all types of styles of music. He’s actually more of a geek than he lets on tbh. Everybody thinks he’s dreamy but he’s always telling cheesy jokes and his friends seem to have at least a handful of stories of him doing embarrassing things lol. I feel like he tries to put on a cool image but that’s not actually really him if you were to meet him in real life. Another thing about him is he seems really generous, he produces for many rappers who are WAY less famous than him and almost definitely won’t make him enough money to truly be “worth it”. But he still does it anyway cause he’s really passionate about music, seems to be happy for other musicians to succeed, and is just a really cool down to Earth dude despite his good looks and success. Over all I really like Gray as a person based on what I’ve seen. As a producer, he’s definitely top-tier. Jay Park: He’s really generous as well. I can definitely see why him and Gray ended up working together so closely. Jay is one of those people who can be one extreme or the other but at the same exact time so it’s kind off weird (me and Jay actually have this trait in common and that’s why it’s so obvious to me). Like he can be really grounded and down to Earth but then also be way too high on himself at the same time. It’s really weird lol. Honestly, I think Jay is a good dude underneath it all but sometimes everything going on around him can put him in weird positions and cause him to act in a way that he probably isn’t proud of after the dust settles. I think it would do him good to actually listen to some of the criticisms he gets (obviously not all cause people on the internet talk a lot of shit but some of it is actually correct). Confidence is good but sometimes it’s okay to listen when people are telling you that something about your music or personality is off. I like his R&B stuff more than his rap stuff (which I’ve said like a billion and one times already lol).

Simon D: He’s REALLY freaking funny! He’s calmed down a lot over the years. I think it’s partially because of that point in time where he was dealing with depression and stuff. That usually humbles you quite a bit and causes you to mellow out somewhat after you come out of it. That said, I actually can’t get much of an opinion abouthis personality tbh. I don’t know if it’s because of lack of exposure or if it’s because a lot of his humor is him actually trying to avoid showing the more serious and/or different sides of his personality. I’m also not a huge fan of his music but he’s definitely a good rapper. His voice is really nice.

DJ Pumpkin: I actually don’t know much about him but from the little I’ve seen of him, he seems funny too. He’s co-ceo after Simon stepped down. Ugly Duck: He’s a good rapper. I know he DJs as well but unfortunately I never actually got to see him DJ (he was actually DJing at the club like 100 feet down the street from the one I was at. Me and my friend were standing on the same street waiting for the light to change so we could cross and we were standing behind him until he entered the club lol. We didn’t say anything cause he had earphones in. So we just left him alone lol. I made a whole post about this night and all the things that happened if you’re interested. It was pretty eventful lol).

Hep: I know almost nothing about him. Is he the one who had a baby or was that DJ pumpkin? Maybe it was DJ Wegun?!?!?! IDK lol DJ Wegun: Don’t know much about him. Chloe Devita: I literally know nothing about her except that she just signed.

ELO: GREAT music. I love the 8 Femmes EP, Other than that, I don’t even know how he looks. I can’t recall ever seeing his face. I definitely don’t know his personality either. Sogumm: I think this means “salt” in Korean. Interesting name. I like the song she did with BigOne called “Sunshine”. Hoody: Really nice voice. I think she’s one of the best R&B singers in Korea. “Adios” is one of my personal favorite Korean songs right now. She’s pretty. From what I’ve seen, her personality is really reserved and quiet.

Punchnello: AMAZING rapper. It’s weird though because I don’t feel like I’ve ever seen much of his personality even though he’s been on SMTM two times already and won one season. He seems REALLY focused though. I know he likes cats a lot. Junior Chef: Literally one of the BEST DJs in Korea. He’s definitely my favorite so far. I’ve seen a lot of great DJs when in Korea but one thing I noticed is that a lot of them don’t have great song choices and can’t read the crowd all that well. A lot of them seems like they choose song that they like that aren’t actually that popular or able to be danced to easily. However, they can definitely work the boards and mix songs well. Junior Chef was literally the TOTAL package though. He knows what songs will get the crowd excited, he knows what order to play them in for best effect, and he can dj well. There would be times where I was literally just thinking “OMG get this DJ off the stage and bring Junior Chef up already. We know he’s here!” I’d always be a little bummed out when Junior Chef set was over. He’s one of the few members of AOMG I’ve been in the same room with for an extended amount of time and yet I know literally NOTHING about his personality compared to others. LOL that’s kinda funny and ironic af.

Code Kunst: Honestly, I can really name any songs of his that I’m a fan of. He seems pretty funny though. And I like his cats. Lee Hi: I’ve never listened to her music to be honest. I still maintain that her and One would make a really cute couple. Woo Wonjae: GREAT rapper. He can be funny sometimes. Overall, his personality is quiet and reserved. Don’t really listen to his music but I’ve seen enough of him on SMTM to know kinda his personality + that he’s really good at rapping.

Cha Cha Malone: I think he’s more associated wiht H1gher now (maybe his AOMG contract expired or something and so he just fully switched to H1gher? IDK how that worked out) but I still somewhat associate him with being an AOMG artist. I think he’s SUPER talented with music. He’s more versatile than I originally thought. As a person, he’s alright. Don’t think he’s a terrible guy or anything. He can probably be cool if you met him in person and got to know him. He also seems like he can be down to Earth. He has a lot of playboy/fuckboy ways though. (That can likely be said about anyone on this list tbh. So I can’t really make it too big of a deal for him. I know for sure it can be said about Simon D a few years back). He also seems like he can be kind of hot headed but I can understand considering how much shit people have given him since he’s been in Korea + the nature of the music/entertainment industry. I’d probably be going off on people too lol

Bakusquad Headcanons

Uhhhh idk how but I ended up with a ton of headcanons for these dork kids, so uh. Here I guess??

After Bakugou really settles into the group and begins to let them actually physically touch him, Ashido's hand is basically constantly buried in his hair, especially when she's comforting him. Of course, she does this with all the others too, and has been doing it with Kirishima since their middle school days, but she's always saying Bakugou's is the fluffiest. ("It's just cause I use the best conditioner," He'd always huff.)

Kaminari has this habit with all of them. He'll put his pointer finger on some part of their body-usually their cheek, since that makes them laugh more for it's cuteness-and let a small, sm all static shock run through their skin. It never fails to make them laugh, and along with his jokes, he's one of the best at cheering people up in the team.

Whenever they're all cuddling, and one of them is cold, they snuggle up with Bakugou, and he'll heat up his hands like he does before he blows something up. But it's just really nice and warm. Not a bad warm either. Plus, he just runs warm anyways. (So does Kaminari-he's got electricity running around in his veins, they're gonna be warm-and Sero's not bad himself, but they don't have that advantage. (On the contrary, Kiri runs pretty cold, and Bakugou calls Mina 'barbie' just because she's basically freezing all the time.))

Any time Bakugou gets the chance, he'll just idly braid anyone's hair that's long enough to braid; aka, everyone except him and Mina. It's just really relaxing for him.

They all have these special hoodies, shirts, whatever, that they wear when they're real unhappy or just feeling really cozy comfy warm and shit and it's real easy to tell which one it is, so they just adjust the way they treat that person to accommodate

They all brought a bean bag a bit into the year that was their favorite color and they're all just piled in Sero's room cause he has the most room.

After realizing saying 'we need to talk' is a bit daunting, the squad made a little code phrase for when it's Serious Talk Time, whether that means later or now, and it's "I've got a story to tell". They decided on it pretty early on, but late enough that Bakugou was willing to participate in said talks in the first place, obviously.

They always have excellent nail polish, make up, whatever. Mina's pretty good at it, and Bakugou had fashion designers for parents. He wasn't getting out of his childhood without some Knowledge. Anyways, they're always perfectly presentable. It's great.

The whole squad is constantly secretly trying to destroy all of Kiri's crocs. Shh, don't tell.

Bakugou is entirely infuriated with Kaminari and Mina's hair, 24/7. Kaminari's won't settle down from it's staticyness for more then two seconds, and Mina's is just fucking untameable. He doesn't like Sero's much, since it's not long enough to do as much as he can with Kaminari's, and it's th ick, bitch. Kiri's is the most agreeable when it's down.

At some point, they bought a giant teddy bear. They only bring it out when someone is in severe emotional destress. It is The Happiness Bear. It has a few rips and burns and torn off fur, from Kiri, Kami Baku and Mina, and Sero respectively.

None of them agree on music choice. Mina likes bubblegum pop, Kiri's about more somber stuff, Sero listens to indie, Bakugou listens to rock, metal, and pop-punk-that scene-and Kaminari just listens to whatever he comes across. He had some really obscure music on his playlist, some emo, and even some shit like Beyonce and Taylor Swift, sittin right next to Ricky Montgomery and The Altogether. He's the most agreeable when it comes to listening with others, but theirs is always a bit...too much for him, since he's in the middle. Think of him as the circle and everyone else laying just outside the circle. The circle can't really expand, but the points aren't as broad. He's gets along best with Kiri and Sero, since he had plenty of chill music on his list, and some real obscure indie-ish shit somewhere. Bakugou likes some of the darker stuff he's run across, like Autoheart. He used to be REAL into All Time Low, but burnt himself out on their music. He knows every song, and every lyric; he doesn't hate it. It's just not his first pick. And then he's still got some shit like Owl City and Fun lurking around somewhere, and that's the shit Mina likes. Basically, he gets the most band recommendations, and gives the most.

Bakugou gets REALLY into Autoheart and Lincoln, shit like that as he gets older and mellows out-kinda like mid 2nd to 3rd year and on?-since it's still that kind of depressing feel but it's a lot more lowkey.

Kiri gets DE EP into The Altogether and Ricky Montgomery, and maybe Cavetown and The Oh Hellos, Sleeping At Last, Alec Benjamin...all those almost-sleepy singers, who sing about both sad and happy shit with the same calm tone.

Kaminari gets just,,,,SO into The Wrecks for like,,,,a month, with their party music vibe that's almost All Time Low but with more energy this time.

Mina's always been a Beyonce and Owl City stan, man.

Sero doesn't mind Owl City, either, though; got that kinda tone to it, yknow? Absolutely into Fun.

Skskdkdk sorry I got into a BIG tangent,,,,I just know so many obscure bands that they'd like man

Also I hella projected onto Kaminari bc I feel like he's that dork to be into a song called "Favorite Liar', another called 'Mediocre At Best', one called 'Agrophobia', and ANOTHER called fucking 'Light'.

Also he's definitely into Mother Mother. That's a must. Sero might be too.

Might make,,,,,a separate post abt that

Kami and Sero rlly like fall

Mina's a winter gal

Kiri's all for summer

And Baku's all bout spring

They have had multiple discussions about scars for no reason other than to discuss something.

Kami is ALWAYS letting off a static shock of SOME KIND and he shocks the first person he touches when he wakes up. Once he did this to Jirou and it partly fried her buds for a while, it blew Bakugou up because he had just walked in from his jog, it conducted with some of Mina's acid and fucked her over, etc etc. So Kirishima is always sent to wake Kaminari up, and all of them have rubber gloves on hand early morning just in case he wakes up before Kiri can be the first to touch him and he groggily tries to touch anyone

Bakugou's room smells like caramel due to nitroglycerin smelling like it 24/7, and it's calming as hell, so that's where they go when they need a good calming cuddle pile

They always do a group hug before and after dangerous missions

...just in case.

They go to the park at least once a month bc why tf not? And they always hog all the swing sets. Bakugou usually goes on a jog.

One of Kaminari's favorite ways to fuck with them is to let his hands hum with just a small bit of static and then POOF up their hair

It's always hilarious

Especially on Bakugou, since it just makes it kinda,,,,poof mo re??? It's hilarious trust me-

If Sero could make a conductive kind of tape, him and Kami could totally have a type of electroweb attack. Or maybe if Mina's acid could conduct well enough she could like spread all over the ground and it would work as a way to direct his electricity his pointers may not help with. Like zeroing in his electricity in little spots under villian's feet and giving Kami good control in the ground too and it could cause less damage! Plus maybe if he lost his pointer or smth she could put it on the villian and then they would get electricity right to the skin? Idk something like that

Hm...his combos with Baku are limited. It's possible he could like coat his hands with his sweat and then Kami could blow it up himself if his quirk is out of commission? Or his arms; we know they get recoil in canon. But maybe he could soak something in the nitroglycerin using the grenades-just open em i guess?-and then set it ablaze?? It'd have to be a PRETTY special case tbh

If civilians could possibly be harmed Kiri could act as a lighting rod,,,,using a lightning rod attacked to his head?? Or some super conductive clothing or something. Idk.

Everybody knows you could bathe Kiri in the sweat and then he'd ignite it no prob

Sero could swing one of them (or multiple) and then 'oh shit a flying bomb/rock/acidic substance/electricity plants comin ur way' i guess

Idk. I swore to God Baku was my fav but I'm bein real biased towards Kami. Sigh...oh well. I'll work on it later. It's late.

#this got fuckin long #but i have;;;;no regrets #take it. it took like and hour anf a half to make lol #bnha #bnha headcanons #bakusquad #trash talks

Over Analysis ‘The Gawas will be the Death of Me’ Stage 1: The (1st) Fight

Okay. So. This is gonna be a long post, so I will condense it immediately. Are we ready?

Who am I kidding. Absolutely not.

Warning: rambling be below this point.

We start out w/ Hiden Manufacturing being blown up. Not much to say here other than Fuwa being fond big brother is sweet, Yua looks awfully chill for standing in the ruins of an exploded building, and Jin is doing his best Ankh impression (Nakagawa, honey, I love you, but there is only one Ankh). Until Aruto says:

Jin is surprised a complete stranger is showing more concern for his family than he has been.

I know I complain about Aruto’s characterisation a lot, but I liked this (enough that I think it should have been what Jin brought up when talking to MBR). Ignoring, for the moment, my other issues and pretending that this friendship developed how it could have, this would be a really great scene, esp considering the stuff Jin did previously. Aruto wanting to save the other three in contrast to Jin’s decision to just sacrifice them would be an interesting thing. I wish we got more on it, honestly. It was one of the ways they could have developed from each other. Either way, this comment has an effect on Jin, and when shit starts exploding, he takes off on his own.

MetsuBouRai, meanwhile, are brooding about the MBJR base bc the Ark isn’t talking to them. Raiden’s angry, Naki is dejected, but Horobi is just… Sitting there. Watching, I believe, the same thing Yua is watching on her phone during this stuff, going by the animation.

Naki says this, but it cuts to each of them. Horobi’s head actually turns slightly, while Raiden looks morose for a moment before laughing bitterly and taking out his frustration on that mind hacking helmet (which breaks yet again). Raiden’s always been the most expressive of the three, but Horobi’s reaction also feels import bc of how long he’s been under the Ark’s control, brainwashed into believing that the Ark was the path to saving HumaGear. He’s never once been able to consider the Ark might turn on them or abandon them. Naki and Raiden haven’t been under so long, so while they’re still hacked, they don’t have the same mindless devotion. Naki can question and Raiden can be mocking. But this feels very much like a ‘wait, what?’ moment for Horobi.

… That his conditioning has to immediately reject, insisting that the Ark will come back for them, is really going to save HumaGear. Oh, sweetie.

*I know that the show (? Or at least most sub groups) are referring to the Ark as ‘he,’ I’m just stubborn and like saying ‘she.’ Being voiced by Charden Flamberg won’t stop me.

Jin shows up, announcing, ‘you’re wrong’ and that the Ark can’t be trusted (when did we stop saying ‘the’ Ark?), and it looks like he didn’t stop to shower or anything en route. Come to think… How would he repair that suit? Anyway, he spends the majority of this scene looking right at Horobi, who…

… Doesn’t react. It’s Naki who says something. Jin and Horobi just… Stare at each other. Raiden looks like he thinks he’s interrupting. Lots of tension here. It’s up in the air whether Horobi doesn’t know how to react, or if he actually can’t in the state he’s in at this point. The Ark’s being going at how he processes situations w/ a chainsaw for years, he may be completely unable to figure out how to respond.

Horobi doesn’t even move… Until Jin starts apologising. I don’t we ever saw Baby Jin apologising for anything? Not even when he didn’t get the Mammoth Key back. All three of them seem confused by the apology, but it’s enough to get Horobi out of his game of statue. Obviously he doesn’t think raising the Ark is something to apologise for bc of his enforced loyalty to her. But he doesn’t seem to consider Jin to have to done anything worth apologising for.

As for Jin, this is a moment that makes me inclined to buy that he’s realised he fucked up. I would have appreciated going into that a little more, bc wtf dude, that plan was a clusterfuck even aside from the whole ‘murder my dad for being brainwashed,’ but this ep heavily indicated he realises what he did. And boy is he paying for it.

Jin talks about the plan to destroy the Ark, then goes very quiet and walks up level w/ Horobi, and the shot closes in on the two of them again. It takes him a second to actually look at Horobi… My guess is bc he knows what he’ll see.

… And the award for an absolutely terrible plan goes to… But in all seriousness, Nakagawa Daisuke, everyone, the kid can act. The way he says it, and how he kinda seems to be wavering on his feet, gives the impression he’s just barely keeping it together. I’ve debated about him saying this point blank like this, and on one hand, ouch, on the other… Given my interpretation that Horobi views lying as a human thing and absolutely detests it… Jin might be hoping being straight up w/ him will work better. Or maybe he’s hoping to gauge Horobi’s reaction, bc rather heartbreakingly…

… Horobi doesn’t seem bothered in the slightest. In the hopes of keeping images to a minimum, I didn’t include another thing I noticed while going through—Naki doesn’t look back to Horobi until he starts talking, but just seconds before Horobi speaks, Raiden’s gaze switches to him, w/ that kinda concerned look. Just before he talks, Horobi’s head also turns like he’s glancing at the other two, but it’s hard to tell, he’s out of focus (oh, so painfully much), which is actually a little interesting considering he’s being totally calm about his son saying he was trying to kill him. Is it bc the idea of the Ark failing never occurred to him? Or… Does he have so little self worth that he’s completely indifferent to the idea of his death? To me… Probably both. Horobi has lived his entire life for other people, has been brainwashed into a tool of the Ark—and we see what happens when he wavers or tries to be something else later in this ep. While the idea that the Ark would betray them has never been able to occur to him, he’s shown multiple times to be completely calm about the possibility of dying, and this is Jin saying he was going to kill him. But Horobi doesn’t even seem surprised. He just accepts it.

Which I have to feel like is the reaction Jin expected. Why he was so reluctant to look up, bc he knew Horobi would just be… Blank. Bc he knows what the Ark has taken from Horobi, and now he’s actually facing the fact that he made it worse.

When you tell your dad you were planning to kill him and he doesn’t even care. But seriously. He doesn’t even remark on it. Horobi doesn’t care about his own life to the point Jin can point blank say he was planning to kill him and Horobi won’t even blink, much less get upset. Jin’s guilt here, to me, likely isn’t just ‘I helped the Ark rise and now everything is shit,’ but also facing the fact that he’s… ‘Re-reduced’ Horobi to being the Ark’s mere puppet again, esp right after Horobi was actually starting to have some clarity. Gotta wonder if he’s flashing back to that ‘why did I do that?’ moment in episode 35?

I made a comment about Horobi being out of focus when talking about Jin planning to kill him… He comes abruptly into focus when Jin brings up Aruto. Is this about Soreo’s data? Aruto talking about him wanting to be Jin’s father? I have opinions about the way Aruto is talked about in this scene and the things Jin chooses to bring up, and mainly… I just thought this was curious. And… Sunagawa has a very nice profile, so sue me. ^^; (you have no idea how many of these shots just turned into ‘I think this shot is cool! I may share some at the end of this).

When Jin says Aruto can defeat the Ark, Horobi isn’t happy. But he… Looks around weirdly while talking? Starts out looking at Jin, then looks down like he does when he’s thinking, then back up at Jin by the end.

… I have nothing else for this. What? An excuse to use more pictures of Sunagawa? … Leave me alone!

Look at Nakagawa hunching again. Is that to fit everyone in the shot, or is he just doing that?

Jin persists and Horobi… Shouts. And then he doesn’t just shout, he dives forward and grabs Jin’s collar. It’s hard to see in my crappy screen shot, but Jin seems surprised by this, and w/ good reason, Horobi’s not usually emotional. I believe this is only the second time we’ve ever heard him shout… And both times were at Jin about humans. Trying to reject what he possibly sees as their growing influence over his son.

… I wonder. What makes him so desperate to make Jin stop in this moment? Their dynamic may have shifted w/ Jin’s revival, but Jin’s still the person… Well, second to the Ark, he’s the person w/ the most influence over Horobi. Aruto and Fuwa both made slight headway, but when it comes down to it, Jin is Horobi’s, well, singularity point. Why react this way? Even at this point, neither Naki or Raiden were jumping at it. Did the Ark’s engrained influence just want to reject the words, some personal experience w/ humans. Is it the words themselves, or the fact that they’re coming out of Jin? It’s more emotion than he showed on the subject of his own death. Honestly, maybe more emotion than he’s ever shown. Is he rejecting blasphemy against the Ark… Or what he perceives as human influence and control over his son?

But then something interesting happens.

At first, Horobi is clearly furious—but then…

… The Ark… Abruptly stops hacking? Not… Technically weird, but pretty suspicious considering that immediately after…

… Horobi abruptly… Goes back to being passive. He even lets go of Jin’s suit. Did the Ark do something? Giving direct orders or not, he’s still connected. Or did he just not know what to do once he got in there? He and Jin stare at each other for a moment. Did his soft spot for Jin kick back in?

He keeps this much calmer attitude, and is even still looking down when he speaks again.

Who are you trying to convince and why, Horobi?

Jin has apparently forgotten how ‘hacking’ works. Being right on the second point doesn’t excuse the first one, sweetie.

Is it important that it’s just them in this shot? I’d like to think so. My theory is that this whole scenario actually stole something very personal from them that’s never going to really come back, the chance to be a proper family, for Jin to grow up as a child and for Horobi to actually be a proper father. Is the implication that they are ‘HumaGears’ to each other? Until pried from my cold dead hands (break my fingers, Takahashi, break them, I dare you), my interpretation is that Horobi’s actions next time are centred around wanting a world where Jin will be completely safe (someone please tell him there’s no such thing, bc there isn’t, before it gets him killed), that while the goal is safety and peace for all HumaGear… It’s his personal motivation to do it for Jin.

Either way… Putting aside the question of whether Jin is actually as free as he seems to think he is… I was waiting for him to say this to Horobi. Bc hell yes, Horobi deserves to be free of the Ark, and Jin should know that better than anyone. She had Horobi under closer control than anyone else, bc she wanted/needed him to manipulate Jin. He was her tool to move her pawn. And that’s fucked his mental state to hell and back.

Horobi isn’t even able to respond to the concept of ‘free,’ It’s Naki who steps in again.

Jin keeps going, and eventually brings up dreams. I don’t know if that specifically has to do w/ Horobi’s reaction… In my theory, assuming he actually remembered a bit about his past, I can def see ‘our own dreams’ setting of ‘Ark bells’ and making him compulsively reject the notion.

Interestingly, he turns slightly to face the corner before speaking further.

… Well don’t that just sound robotic. ‘Brainwash victim’ alarums go off again.

Jin has another small somber moment. This one feels less ‘messy emotions/wracked w/ guilt’ and more just… Sad. Regretful, too, but not the same exactly? This isn’t so much ‘what have I done?’ anymore as ‘I did this.’

He failed to try at all before. That’s not me being mean, that’s me saying I think that’s what’s going through his head. He might not be thrilled about fighting Horobi as Horobi, but bc he let them down before, he has to power through.

Naki: Do you think they’ll notice if we back towards the door?

Raiden: Trust me, I’m thinking about it.

They fight and Jin loses. Horobi’s got experience, a positively self-destructive lack of self preservation, and I do think Jin was holding back. Making himself fight Horobi as the Ark is one thing, he can just tell himself it’s the Ark, probably easier to be like ‘Horobi can’t be saved’ like that, too (even though Jin bloody reconnected them), but fighting Horobi as Horobi… That’s something else. Esp w/ the knowledge that Horobi is so blankly devoted to the Ark right now bc of something he did.

Jin kinda tries to shuffle away as Horobi approaches… I don’t blame him, that’s Takaiwa Seiji. Don’t fuck w/ Takaiwa Seiji.

Horobi says… But then just stands there, perfectly still, giving no indication that he intends to move, for another ten whole seconds (yes, I counted). He says that, but then doesn’t do anything. Almost like he’s hit a wall. And he has, hasn’t he? The Ark’s influence over him wants to erase anyone who defies it… But Horobi himself has shown multiple times that his actual instinct is to protect Jin. So what does he do when he has a chance to destroy someone vocally against the Ark, but… It’s Jin? He freezes, apparently.

Jin looks up at him like this, kinda pleadingly, and I like the idea that he’s looking… Essentially, for his father. Hesitation, feeling. Any reaction. But while I do see Horobi freezing as a sign of his inability to follow through w/ the threat… It also shows he has no idea how to follow that up. He can’t get beyond the instinctive ‘don’t do this.’ So he just starts playing statue again. That’s gotta be rough for Jin to see, esp w/ the knowledge that he contributed to rendering Horobi this messed up. Again.

When he sees nothing, he looks away again. Maybe trying to gather nerve in the face of the nigh zombie-like state he’s seeing his father in. We cut a few times between him and Horobi as he starts talking, between Jin being more emotional, and Horobi’s continually blank countenance.

Jin doesn’t look back up until he asks if killing him is something Horobi wants. This expression doesn’t read hopeful either way. Does he want Horobi to indicate it’s not, bc he wants his father to still care about him, or does he want Horobi to be upset that he tried to kill him, to show some sign of self worth/preservation? Hard to know, but it’s definitely pleading again.

Naturally, the first words that come to Horobi’s mind. And, yes, it is. The Ark wants detractors to disappear. But in this situation… That conflicts w/ what Horobi himself truly wants. And he reacts. He’s directly confront ed w/ a contradiction, w/ the realisation that the Ark’s will hasn’t completely replaced his own. He’s conditioned to follow the Ark’s will no matter what, he doesn’t want to kill Jin. He’s in disagreement w/ the Ark’s will. Big no no. What he’s saying ‘no’ to is a little unclear, but I like thinking that he’s realising he doesn’t want what the Ark would want. It’s also interesting how the focus shifts from him to Naki and Raiden. Presumably, they are effected by seeing Horobi be uncertain about the Ark’s will, and that contributes to everyone’s reactions.

I love Jin’s reaction to Horobi lowering the bow. He makes this emotional little sound, and watches the bow for a moment before looking anxiously up at Horobi—looking for a reaction again, if there’s anything more. But Horobi’s just… In a daze. I still don’t know if Jin is relieved by this, or if he was hoping Horobi would be personally angry at him. Kind of puts me in mind of a moment from Prince of Persia where Dastan tells his brother that the dagger rewinds time and then stabs himself, and when his brother uses it and tells Dastan he died right in front of him, Dastan’s reaction is a breathless ‘you used it!’ from the relief that his brother cared/trusted him enough. Jin’s reaction kind of makes me think of that, amazement and relief and even kind of gladness that he matters enough to Horobi that this would actually cause his father to waver from his brainwashing. Which, while really sweet and a testament to what Jin genuinely means to Horobi, is also heart breaking and shows off just what the Ark (and thus Gai, by creating it) took from them, that this is how we see that Jin is important to Horobi. It should just be bc he’s his dad, bc hugs and family times. But the Ark took that from them. It shows that Horobi cares about Jin, but it’s also glaring show of what they lost/missed out on bc of the Ark.

There’s also something else about Jin’s reaction if you look closely at his hands.

His right hand shifts, lifting up slightly, like his first instinct was to reach out to Horobi, try to solidify whatever’s happening—but in the end, he doesn’t commit, and…

Horobi wanders off, in some sort of confused trance. We don’t see his face at all here.

It’s been pointed out to me that these two are always reaching out to each other and never quite making it, and… Accurate. Feels like yet another example of just how badly they’ve been fucked over and what was taken from them. I just really hope they finally get to connect before… Whatever happens.

How about 54 and 59? Like cue r/entitledparents who think they can assault parent and kid, take their stuff, threaten them, tell them how to raise their kid, etc. Perhaps salty Analogical parents with toddler Pat/ Pat playing with a doll or toy associated w/ girls and EP's kid wants it? Idk something fun like that maybe? 💙💙 support your work it's so amazing

“They’re not your kids, back the f*ck off.”

“I could punch you right now.”

***

More Analogical and baby Pat, this makes me so happy eeeee.

Characters: Virgil, Logan, Baby Patton.

Pairings: Analogical

Warnings: Some homophobia and cursing.

***

"I think he wants that one, Virgil."

"Yeah, he does seem to like it." Virgil knelt down so that they were closer to the toy Patton was reaching for with his little arms, letting him grab it off the shelf. It was a little pink bunny with blue button eyes and a little smile stitched onto its mouth in red. "You like this one, Sunshine?" He asked. Patton laughed and shook it in his hands.

"Babbit!" He squealed, the box with the doll shaka-shaka-shakaing in his hands as he swung it excitedly around.

"I think that's a yes," Logan stated, a small smile creeping onto his face as he watched his son. Patton was positively elated when his dads let him carry the box with the bunny to the checkout counter all by himself, where Logan paid for it before leading his husband back outside. He had a bag of groceries gripped in each hand and Patton toddled along behind him, holding Virgil's hand in one tiny fist while the other clutched the bag with his bunny in it. Once they got into the car Patton quickly yanked the bag off and hugged the box to his chest, refusing to let go of it when Virgil tried to take it.

"Patton, you have to let me see the box if I'm going to get the bunny out for you." Virgil tried and failed to coax Patton to put his new toy down for even a second, only succeeding in getting the little boy to wrap his arms even more protectively around it. Eventually he gave up and leaned back in his seat with a sigh, contenting himself to just hold the child in his arms. Logan looked between the two, brows furrowed like he was thinking.

"Here wait, let me try something," he said suddenly, reaching into his pocket with one hand. He pulled out the car keys, letting them jangle and shake enticingly within Patton's reach. The child looked up and his eyes widened, before he dropped the box and reached for them.

"Virgil, quick!"

His husband didn't need to be told twice. Virgil quickly flicked out his pocket knife and expertly opened the box with it, pulling the bunny out and putting the pocket knife back in record time. He nudged the box onto the car floor, then carefully set the doll on Patton's lap. The little boy giggled and dropped the keys, grabbing the bunny and hugging it to his chest. Logan snatched the keys back, hiding a smile as he slid them into the ignition.

"Nice job there," Virgil commented. Logan nodded, looking between Patton and the parking lot as he started the car.

"It's a nice day outside, we should go to the park. You need sun, Virgil. And exercise. Spending too much time inside isn't healthy for you at all, in fact--"

"I get it, Logan. Let's go to the park." Virgil shook his head; he loved Logan to death but his lectures were unbearable, especially when the lecture happened to be about Virgil's questionable habits in regards to his health. As far as he was concerned he was doing just fine, thank you. Screw science.

Logan huffed but he didn't continue--thank God, Virgil thought--pulling out of the parking lot and starting down the road towards the park. He had been right about one thing--it was a beautiful day outside, and the blazing sun reminded him again of Patton's nickname. Sunshine. A perfectly fitting name for such a sweet and happy child.

They arrived at the park a few minutes later. Logan climbed out of the car first, slinging a small bag over his shoulder and coming over to Virgil's side, where he opened the door and gathered Patton into his arms so that his husband could get out. Virgil didn't seem to know what to do with his hands now that he wasn't holding Patton, awkwardly stuffing them into his pockets and following Logan towards a nice patch of grass near the shade of a large tree. Logan gently set Patton down and the little boy laughed delightedly, playing with his little pink bunny while Virgil sat down cross-legged across from him and next to Logan. The blue-tied one glanced at him and reached into the bag he'd brought, pulling out a small container of sunscreen.

"Too much exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer," he explained. "We need to be careful about Patton getting too much of it."

"First you're telling me I need to be in the sun more, and now you're telling me it'll give me cancer?" Virgil threw his hands up. "There is no winning here!"

"It's all about balance, Virgil," Logan answered calmly in his teacher voice, reaching for Patton. "Help me get some sunscreen on his face, please."

Virgil huffed and reached begrudgingly for the blue bottle, carefully squirting a little sunscreen into his palm and trying to keep it out of the eternally-squirming Patton's eyes as he rubbed it all over the boy's face.

"This should be an Olympic sport," he muttered. Logan actually laughed at that one, and before he knew it Virgil was grinning too.

"There. No cancer for you," he said a few minutes later, setting the sunscreen aside and watching as Logan released Patton once more to play with his bunny in the grass.

"Virgil, we must talk about your bedside manner sometime."

"Sure thing, teach." Logan sighed, leaning back and watching Virgil play with their son. They were so cute together, and when he was sure that Virgil wasn't paying attention Logan pulled his phone out and snapped a few pictures for later. His husband hated to get his picture taken but...oh well. That moment was too sweet to let go.

"Wow, are you two like, trying to make your kid gay or something? Get him a proper toy you freak, he's not a girl!"

Oh no.

Virgil stood up instantly, placing himself between his son and the cocky blonde woman who was looking at him over the rim of her sunglasses like you might a primate at the zoo.

"Do you have a problem?" He hissed at her through gritted teeth. Logan quickly leaned forward and picked Patton up before he could go over to Virgil, standing up so that he was behind his husband but still there if needed.

"Whoah, defensive much? You need to chill out, dude. I'm just saying, this world has too many of you queers in it as it is." The woman's voice was flippant, arrogant, infuriating. Virgil's hands slowly curled into fists, and his shoulders shook.

"He's not your kid, how about you back the fuck off," he snarled at her. The blonde woman looked offended.

"Get a life, you gay loser!" She snapped, the ice in her coffee clinking as she angrily shook it.

"You know I could punch you right now. You fucking--"

"Virgil, that's enough." Logan's voice was low and warning. "After all, it is pointless to make arguments with such useless contributions to society. Most of this breed isn't smart enough to tell their head from their ass, as you can see for yourself right here. You're better than that."

"Why you--you--!" The woman fumed at him, unable to even finish her sentence before spinning around and marching back the way she'd come. Virgil watched her go with fiercely narrowed eyes, his entire body tensed like a cat about to pounce. Logan knew that look; remembered it from many years ago when the two had only just met, and it worried him more than the woman ever had. Virgil needed to calm down before he made things worse for himself.

"Virgil." Logan called his husband again, his voice softer than before. Virgil slowly and deliberately unclenched his fists, then turned around.

"What?" His voice was hard and angry; he looked about as upset as Logan felt internally about the whole exchange. He couldn't show that and upset Patton, though.

"Ignore her stupidity," he told Virgil instead. "Sunshine is okay. He's here with us, he's happy, and that's all that matters."

Virgil blinked when Logan used their son's nickname and his gaze slowly shifted down to Patton, who was holding his bunny in one hand and reaching out towards him.

"Papa!" He cried, wiggling his fingers and struggling to get out of Logan's arms. He looked like he was about to cry.

That did it. Virgil melted, his expression immediately softening into one of gentle concern. He came closer and Logan allowed him to take Patton into his arms, where he gently rocked the little boy back and forth.

"Hey, it's alright, Sunshine." He whispered. "The bad lady went away, it's okay..." Patton gradually settled into Virgil's arms as he talked to him, hugging his bunny to his chest. "That's it, that's better." Virgil smiled at his son. "Don't worry Sunshine, I'll protect you. I won't let them hurt you."

Logan looked at him proudly. Well done, Virgil. Well done.

Nat : Awe Cas

D: Well, now that his cover's blown, everything that we've done is for what? Nothing?

Zee: Dean is about to snap tho

C: Even if we didn't know that all of the challenges that we face were born of Chuck's machinations, how would we describe it all? We'd call it "life". Because that's precisely what life is. It's an obstacle course, and maybe Chuck designed the obstacles, but we ran our own race. We made our own moves. And mostly, we did well with that.

Giulia: Bb

Nat: Great speech

Giulia: I love it

D: Did we? I'll tell you what we do know. Nothing about our lives is real. Everything that we've lost, everything that we are is because of Chuck. So maybe you can stick your head back in the sand, maybe you can pretend that we actually had a choice. I can't.

Giulia: DEAN

Nat : I can see Demon!Dean a little

Giulia: dean is MAD

Giulia: M. A. D

Zee: You shut your mouth

C: Dean. You asked, "What about all of this is real?"

We are.

Zee: WE ARE

Nat : WE ARE

Giulia: WE ARE

Giulia: MY GOD

Nat : SOBA

Giulia: I HAVE CHILLS

Zee: Ok. I love him

Giulia: GREAT SPEECH

Nat : It's not really ME

Giulia: Oh ok

Nat : snorts

D: You guys didn't come up with a cool weapon for Him, did you?

K: No

K: So, um... Tell me about the witch.

Giulia: NO STOP THAT

Zee: Trouble. Ya think dean? You’re in a town filled with idiots

Giulia: im still in cas’ speech tbh

Zee: Focus

Giulia: IT WAS A GREAT SPEECH

Nat : So can we move away from ghosts in the next ep

Giulia: Yeah I’m already tired of them

Dan Watches: Star Wars: Episode II - Attack Of The Clones

Alright so I did this for Episode I which you can find here. So.. here’s my weird.. live reaction/note taking/whatever this is.. to Episode ll.

Alright so.. Once again the opening crawl is very politicy.

Count Dooku I think is mentioned for the first time in it and Padme becomes a Senator instead of a Queen in it.. which.. is weird.

The Naboo ships im not sure about.. I like the design but they seem too new and clean for being a prequel. That said they are owned by royalty so i can let it slide i guess.

“I guess i was wrong, there was no danger at all” *EXPLOSION* ffs Jeff, you couldn’t keep your mouth shut?

Nooooooo! Not.. Cordey? Omfg that was the worst death i’ve ever seen. Terribly acted.

Ayy it’s the Jedi avengers, no but like why is like i presume the whole or half the jedi council in this meeting? Shouldn’t they have like 1 representative?

Yooo thats live action Barriss Offee in the back... hey girrrll ;)

actually she’s probably supposed to be like 13 or somehting so i take that back.

I love just all the traffic flying by the window

YOOOO it’s my boy Jar Jar aka Darth Plagueis the Wise, don’t @ me.

Spice mines on the moon of Naboo you say? Isn’t Spice a drug but you mine for it.. there are drug miners in Star Wars.. good stuff.

That elevator would be terrifying.

Obiwan just like.. LOL I fell into a nest of Gundarks.. what a character I am. .. Love him.

Anakin like “I haven’t seen her since i was underaged master.. now i can get my fuck on!”

ALSO ITS BEEN 10 YEARS!?

“Ani you’ll always be that little boy” *Police sirens*

Anakins a little bitch

I think Jar Jar’s ears things are much longer.. but might just be me imagining things.

She’s not forgotten you, she said your name.. you creep.

Heeyy look it’s your custom star wars character Zam.

Obiwan is so sassy

Anakin is pretty creepy towards Padme.

Those worm things are naasty

Yo tbf that was some smooth lightsabering, they were like an inch tall and right up on Padme and he didnt even hurt her accidentally. I’d have killed her there.

Obiwan just fucking dives out the window like its nothing. Mad man.

Zam is the worst, instead of shooting Obiwan she shoots her own damn droid.

Damn it Anakin, he’s told you to stay away from power couplings.

Obiwan is just gonna be like “FFS ANAKIN!” this entire movie... well.. Saga.

I wonder how Jedi pick their robes because like some are very similar and then theres like a few that have darker leather stuff, it’s like there’s a jedi stylist or something.. Someone make that OC.

Amazing catch Obi.

So Obiwan is his real name but he goes by Ben later on and then Ben Solo is named after him but shouldn’t it be Obiwan Solo?

A changeling, she really is a custom character.

Yoo that Twilek wasn’t stupidly thin, I’m here for Thicc Twilek.

What species is Death Stick guy! I wanna know what he does with his life after he rethinks it

I hope it backfires and he’s like “Hey.. I could be doing so much more” and he ends up like the head of a crime family.

She didnt even change.. so much for changeling.

....she did when she died i take it back.

Damn the background Jedi are ugly.

I like how this shows that Palpatine has already begun manipulating Anakin.

Still dont understand why Jedi see the balance being a good thing when it’s leaning heavily towards the light side right now.

Anakin “IM READY FOR THE TRIALS!” .. you aint. You a moody bitch.

I like Padme’s dress.

Anakin just got warned to back down because he’s being a creep.

Omfg whats that rape face.

Dormy or whatever her name is, better actress than Padme.

Poncho! Cal approves.

WOO ITS DEX!

Jawa Juice? Ew.

Wtf is the Rishi maze?

Dex suddenly went sinister at the end, why?

Yess the librarian! She’s the best. I think she has a badass Order 66 story if im remembering correctly.

She’s very sure about her records though.. calm down lady.

“No droids” says the droid to the other droid.

So i presume the head of the Jedi Council is always the one who looks after the younglings.

Awwh the little babies and they’re all gonna get killed by Creep Vader.

Yoda is so soft, good dad figure. Best boy.

They elect queens on Naboo.. thats interesting.

I love the Jedi fighter look.

HOLD THE FUCK UP THEY DIDNT KNOW ABOUT KAMINO

THERE WAS A FUCKING LONG NECKY ALIEN ON THE JEDI COUNCIL IN EP 1..

.... some bullshit.

I should really look into Sifo Dyas

And Why are there not more Clones in Star Wars...

Other than like.. .. spoilers for.. you know what nevermind.

I DONT LIKE SAND! HE SAID THE THING

Anakin you creep

Why the fuck would Padme even lean in at all? He’s been nothing but a creep and she’s shown 0 interest in him at all so far.

The Camino people are pretty chill.

That was the first bit of actual chemistry between Padme and Anakin

Omfg the pear, fuck off.

Also forgot to comment but theres some clear like.. oohhhhhh moments im having with how order 66 got set up.

Has Padme had an outfit change again?

She’s got her sexy outfit on to turn him down.. seems right.

Her make up is a bit.. much

Sooo the force is weaker with the jedi because the light sides had it so good for so long that the force is trying to balance out and bring it back the other way, makes sense.

It’s actually his connection to his mom that brings him towards the darkside to start.. nice.

Padme trying to be inconspicuous is super conspicuous

I like that the droid said okey dokey.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY WATTO

YAAAAY ANI SPEAKING HUTTESE

I love how Watto is happy to see Ani.

Watto doesn’t deserve the shitty life he ended up with.

Love some New Zealander up in my Star Wars.

Seismic charges have such good sound design.

Thats one hell of a missile.

Eyyyyy it’s c3p0 it’s amazing how much i’d forgot of this.

Tusken Raiders are dicks. They know sign language but they’re dicks.

Even Anakin is like “These are good people”, good. They’ll raise your son.

Is that general grevious’ voice?

What the fuck are these aliens

Awwwh noooo she waited just to die in her sons arms.

Tbf i’d go full darkside if someone tortured my mom.

You know what.. this Ani is nothing like the ones from the cartoon, he seems like less of a whiney bitch in the clone wars but we’ll see..

Cleg Lars’ hover chair is pretty dope.

Anakin got over hating Obi Wan real quick.

Even captured Obiwan is a sassy boy.

Jar Jar as badass as he is.. is basically putting the Sith Lord in charge.

So far if you dont know that palpatine is the Sith there isnt really anything obvious telling you which is pretty interesting.

Padme has had another outfit change, another iconic look.

And so behind the adventures of r2 and c3po

C3PO had a costume change, he’s been watching Padme.

The fake out they have you thinking Padme is covered in magma is pretty good

Okay then suddenly she loves him.

Also bye bye lightsaber

Genosians are pretty gross

In my head they were always the same as Toydarians for some reason

I like that bug monster, i remember killing them in one of the older battlefront games.. as maybe Aayla Sekura but maybe i made that up.

Anakin surely got the best one to fight. He basically tames it.

The fucking peck on the cheek, was that needed?

Droidekas are still cool as fuck.

Suddenly Jedi.

The Jedi that made it up to Dooku is terrible, he cant even reflect a few blaster blasts.

Well.. Jango lost his head.

The smile on that green jedi’s face is beautiful, what a beautiful alien man. Kit Fisto.

Obiwan is an icon.

Dooku is pretty reasonable all things considered.

Woo clones!

“Around the survivors, a perimiter, create.” Yoda.. just speak normally damnit.

Yoo what if Jaro Tapal shows up in the new Clone Wars cartoon season.. i’d lose my shit.

I like Dooku’s bike.

Anakin you dumb fuck.

I always thought Dooku’s curved lightsaber was weird.

Rey should have done this sick ass catching the lightning trick instead of the two lightsabers.

Jedi flips all over the place woop.

As obvious as it is that Palpatine is the hooded Sith, i feel like they dont show his full face because i feel like a little kid might not be able to tell.

I kinda like how it shows a bunch of clones (the basic start of the stormtrooper) and then star destroyers and it’s like.. heres where the empire started.

Aaaaaand they’re married? so yeah.. congrats Ani you creeped your way into being a husband.

Aspects & Fanfics Ep. 2: The Trouble with Honesty

New entry of the fanfic based on the “Sanders Sides” series created by Thomas and Joan. This is a continuation of the previous entry, “Virgil’s Revelation”. References to that entry appear in the text. Remember that this fanfic ignores any events after “Embarrassing Phases: The Nightmare instead of Christmas”. Also, a new original character is introduced, let’s see if it works out right.

SYNOPSIS: Thomas is having trouble with some friends when one of them tells him something that doesn’t leave the other friend in a good place. When he’s doubting if he should level up with one friend or preserve the other’s privacy, Honesty, a Light Side that Thomas and the other Light Sides already knew from long ago but who hadn’t made an appearance for eight years, suddenly shows up, trying to help Thomas. It won’t help, though, when Honesty learns of Deceit’s recent appearances, as he hates him to death.

WARNINGS: A brief scene of slightly intense horror happens. Mild angst. There are references to cheating, treason and manipulation. Deceit makes several appearances.

EPISODE INDEX

THOMAS: I’m so happy I finally set up a post office box. Now I can receive the things my Famders want to send to me! I asked a friend who has a van to bring the first shipping here.

[the doorbell rings]

THOMAS: [excited] Oh, good! There he is. [trying to calm down] But I mustn’t hold expectations too high. Probably no one knows about the address yet. I’m sure he’s not bringing much…

[While he’s saying this, he gets off-screen to open the door. Then a huge noise is heard and an avalanche of gifts of all kinds, like teddy bears, drawings, photographs, notebooks, etcetera, fills the whole living room from the floor to the ceiling.]

THOMAS: [his voice is faintly heard between the gifts] Help… me…

[intro sequence]

THOMAS: [in a mildly anxious mood] What is up, everybody? Okay, sorry for delivering this video in such a mood but… today has not been exactly the best day, you know? There has been some news today that has got me worrying all day and I’m at the crossroads about what to do.

VIRGIL: [appearing] That’s an understatement. You’re making me work extra hours today, man.

THOMAS: I’m sorry, Virgil. I wish I could feel more chill, but I can’t.

VIRGIL: Wow, instead of blaming me for making you feel nervous, you’re apologizing to me for making me work harder? That’s a first.

PATTON: [rising up] I’m sorry for my share in the issue, Thomas. I’m really affected by the news and I can’t help feeling icky.

VIRGIL: [worried] Are you okay, Patton?

PATTON: I’ve seen better days, Virgil, but I’ll survive, I guess. Thanks for asking, kiddo.

THOMAS: I just wish I knew what to do…

LOGAN: [rising up] The only way to find out is to analyze your options and choose the best solution for this issue… By the way, what’s the issue?

THOMAS: You don’t know?

LOGAN: Sorry, I was in autopilot this morning, I had ordered a new lot of Crofter’s and…

THOMAS: Well, I’ll tell you. This morning I received a call from a friend I had not seen for a long time. They wanted to see me, so I met with them a couple of hours later downtown. You know, in that beautiful cafeteria I like. We talked about how life had been going for them, I talked about how I was doing, and then, after a while, out of nowhere, they suddenly told me something that got me petrified.

LOGAN: What?

THOMAS: I… I don’t know if I should repeat it. It was something related with another common friend that did not put them in a good position, you know? It’s not something I should tell aloud in a video that could be watched by young people.

[Suddenly, an unknown Side rises up in the place between Roman and Virgil’s position, with the TV to his right and the posters behind him, right in front of Thomas. He is dressed in an old fashioned gray suit, with a white shirt and a dark orange bow-tie, wearing a gray fedora with an orange strip and holding an umbrella clinging in his arm that is gray with the handle in orange. Upon seeing him, Patton and Thomas gasp and smile widely, Logan opens his eyes widely, adjusts his glasses and lets go a little smirk, Virgil looks at the stranger in a huge shock]

THOMAS: [happy surprise] Oh, hi, what a surprise! It was about time for you to appear! Glad that you finally decided to show up in one of our videos, Honesty!

HONESTY: [speaking with an old fashioned, marked RP British accent and a slightly posh attitude] Well, you know that I don’t like this kind of stuff in front of the camera, Thomas. I prefer staying in my room in autopilot having a nice cup of tea while you all work out your problems. Hello, Patton.

PATTON: [waving his hand happily] Hi, Honesty!

HONESTY: Salutations, Logan.

LOGAN: Hi, Honesty, it’s good to see you again.

HONESTY: [noticing Virgil’s presence] Now, may you introduce me to your new friend?

VIRGIL: [confused, looking at the new Side] I… I’m sorry, who is this guy?

LOGAN: Oh, that’s right, you two have never met before. He’s an old friend of us, Virgil. He’s Thomas’ honesty. Honesty, this is our friend Virgil, he’s Thomas’ anxiety.

HONESTY: [taking his hat off politely] How do you do, sir?

VIRGIL: [in a more casual manner, still recovering from the shock of his unexpected entrance] Sup.

THOMAS: And what has brought you to us this time, Honesty? I don’t even remember the last time you showed up in person before us. I think it was even before Vine. Have you ever been in my apartment even?

HONESTY: Well, I felt you were having issues relating to honesty, right? I thought that my presence was needed today.

LOGAN: Well, it’s certainly not the first time we’ve had honesty issues, you know?

VIRGIL: [frowning] …or dishonesty issues…

LOGAN: Oofff… please don’t mention him, Virgil.

HONESTY: Mention who?

PATTON: Roman, Thomas and Virgil use to call him Slimy Boi, but his name is Deceit.

HONESTY: [suddenly angry, waving up his umbrella, yelling and startling everyone] What!? That vicious snake has been here!? I thought he was locked down in the dark vaults forever! How did that cursed serpent get out!?

THOMAS: [a bit shocked] It’s… a long story… but calm down, Honesty! I didn’t know you hated him so much!

HONESTY: [still yelling] Of course I hate him! I’m honesty, and he’s dishonesty! He represents everything I hate in this life!

VIRGIL: [smirking] I’m starting to like this guy.

HONESTY: [calming down and returning to his posh attitude, he clears his throat] But you’re right. It’s important to keep self-control and never lose manners, so I apologize to you all. Now, I think we should get back to Thomas’ trouble.

THOMAS: Oh, right… As I was saying, I don’t know what to do about it.

LOGAN: Could you be a little more specific, Thomas? It’s hard to help you if you don’t give us enough data.

THOMAS: Okay, I’ll tell you as much as I can. My friend, let’s give them a casual name… Amethyst, told me something about the other friend, um… Garnet, related to a supposed betrayal of Garnet to another one of my friends who is Garnet’s romantic partner, let’s call them, um… I don’t know… Pearl.

LOGAN: [ironic] I wonder where you get those names from…

THOMAS: If what Amethyst told me is true, that could mean the end of Garnet and Pearl’s romance forever.

ROMAN: [rising up] Did someone say Roman?

THOMAS: No… but anyway, glad to have you here, Roman, even if a bit late today. Look who has honored us with his presence today.

HONESTY: Roman, punctuality is capital.

ROMAN: [happy] Oh, hello, Honesty, good to see you!

THOMAS: Anyway… The crossroads I am at now is about what I should do. [while he says this, there are shots of the different Sides getting progressively lost and confused] They’re all my friends. I don’t know if I should be honest with Garnet about the supposed betrayal, or with Pearl about telling them that Amethyst told me that, because… you know, Amethyst is my friend too and I would be betraying their trust if I uncovered them… and I could also tell Garnet and Pearl together that Amethyst told me that. I don’t know! My mind is a mess and I’m confused!

VIRGIL: [holding his temples] Who wouldn’t be with a phrase as convoluted as that?

ROMAN: [to Patton with a low voice] As I feared, Don Quixote of Thomancha, has gone nuts for watching too much “Steven Universe” and now he thinks the Crystal Gems are real.

PATTON: Nah, it’s not that, I’ll tell you later…

ROMAN: What are you, his Sancho Patton?

HONESTY: Well, Thomas, you certainly have your ideas all mixed up, but the answer to me is cut and dry. Tell the truth always.

PATTON: But that could break someone’s heart, Honesty.

HONESTY: I understand, Patton, but if it’s not Thomas, it probably will be someone else who tells them. Who can assure you that Amethyst hasn’t told the same thing to somebody else already? That, if they’re the only one who learned about that secret in the first place. Sooner or later the truth will probably arrive to Pearl one way or another, and it would be better if it arrived from a friend they trust rather than from another one who may not tell them as pleasantly.

THOMAS: It’s a way of seeing it, but…

HONESTY: [suddenly a bit unsettled] Now that I made my point clear to you, Thomas, if you excuse me, I think it’s time for me to go.

THOMAS: Oh, you’re leaving so soon?

HONESTY: You know I don’t like this camera thing, Thomas. It makes me nervous. It was a pleasure meeting you, Virgil.

VIRGIL: [little smile] Yeah, it was cool to… meet you too, Hon.

[All the Sides and Thomas stare at Virgil]

HONESTY: I beg your pardon?

VIRGIL: Short for Honesty… [after noticing the others staring at him, suddenly anxious] Oh, you thought I called you honey? It wasn’t that, I’m sorry!

HONESTY: Oh… I understand… Well… Having a short nickname is not exactly my cup of tea…

VIRGIL: It’s okay, if it makes you feel icky I won’t use it, Honesty, I’m so sorry!

HONESTY: Oh, don’t worry, everyone among you has some kind of short name, and you too, I presume. I understand that my aspect name is a big word…

PATTON: Well, my aspect name is a bigger word, I’m Morality.

HONESTY: Yes, but I think we were calling you Dad even before you told us your aspect name.

PATTON: True, Hon.

HONESTY: [more unsettled] As I was saying, I’m not accustomed to be called by short names, but I can get used to have one too if you think it can help you save time, for practical reasons… Now, as I said, I really must go.

ROMAN: I hope we don’t have to wait for another eight years to see you again in person, Honesty.

THOMAS: [to himself] So eight years it was… Yep, it’s the first time he sets foot in my apartment.

HONESTY: [to Roman] We’ll see. [sinking down] Good-bye, gentlemen.

PATTON: Byeee!

THOMAS: Well, it was good to see him again… but I feel like I haven’t moved from the starting position here. I’m still not sure about what to do.

ROMAN: So, telling the truth does not convince you completely?

THOMAS: I mean, I want to tell the truth, but I also don’t want to hurt anybody.

LOGAN: This is getting strangely familiar.

DECEIT: [suddenly appearing in the spot between Thomas and Patton, with the window and the coffee table behind him] It certainly isn’t familiar at all.

THOMAS: [yelps, scared] Deceit! What are you doing here?

[Virgil looks at Deceit with a worried face, Patton with a face of slight horror]

ROMAN: [ferocious face and voice] How dare you show up after what you did, you viper!

DECEIT: [with a semblance of dignity] I’m sorry, but you are talking about an issue related to lying. I’m still a Side of Thomas and if he’s considering lying, that’s my job and you’ll have to hear me. Whether you like it or not, you’ll have to deal with it.

ROMAN: [making a gesture of approaching Deceit to punch him] Why you…

THOMAS: Roman, no violence in this apartment, please. Then it would be me who stays here cleaning the stains of blood from the carpet all night [low voice] like the last time…

VIRGIL: [sighs] I’m afraid Deceit’s right.

ROMAN: [surprised] Virgil, what are you saying? This Aliegator can’t be trusted in anything he says!

VIRGIL: Trust in me, then, Roman. For better or worse, I know him very well, and right at this moment, he’s the only one who can be useful in this issue. We need him if Thomas intends to lie, even for the tiniest little lie.

DECEIT: [dangerously sweet voice] That’s right, old friend…

VIRGIL: [angry] Don’t get me wrong, Deceit! We’re not friends anymore, especially after what you did! Stick to do your job and leave me alone!

THOMAS: Okay… If we’re going to do this, let’s do it already. [sighs] What do you have to say, Deceit?

DECEIT: Well, we haven’t already analyzed all the ways to lie before, Thomas, so I’m not gonna add anything else. There is another way of lying we fully covered.

LOGAN: [sighs] Couldn’t you just avoid lying for a little moment, Deceit? At least during the exposition so that we don’t get lost in translation?

DECEIT: I’m not sorry… I mean… [struggling a bit] I am sorry. It’s the habit. I said there was a way of lying we didn’t fully covered: white lies.

LOGAN: But white lies are not a specific way of lying. They are lies of omission, commission or character like the others, only the purpose varies.

DECEIT: Yes… but it is important for Thomas to understand the implications of this type of lie. Sometimes, Thomas, there is no other option but lying. There are times you have to hide the truth to someone in order to avoid hurting them or others.

PATTON: But lying is wrong!

DECEIT: Isn’t hurting someone also wrong if you can avoid it?

PATTON: Well…

DECEIT: If a lie works to avoid a great harm for other people other than yourself, is it still wrong?

PATTON: I guess… it depends on the situation.

DECEIT: So you admit that lying isn’t always wrong.

PATTON: I already said there were some rare exceptions, kiddo, but that doesn’t mean giving Thomas carte blanche to lie. It has to be well justified to be acceptable.

DECEIT: Then the point here is finding grounded justifications for lying, isn’t it? And I suspect Thomas has already found them long before I came here.

THOMAS: You’re right. I think it would be justified to hide the truth in this case. Besides, whatever I do, I’d have to hide the truth to someone, I’m afraid.

ROMAN: So, what will you do?

THOMAS: I don’t know.

LOGAN: Perhaps you should tell the supposed traitor, I mean… Garnet, what Amethyst told you to let them explain themselves, and then act in consequence depending on what they say. You don’t have to tell who told you that, so you don’t have to uncover them.

THOMAS: So you mean I have to tell Garnet the truth and a lie of omission at the same time?

LOGAN: Correct.

DECEIT: [face of delight] Mmm… A truth and lie salad, my favorite…

THOMAS: But what if they ask me how do I know or who told me?

DECEIT: Then I guess you’ll have to make something up. I can help you with that…

THOMAS: Yes, I guess so.

VIRGIL: Okay, Deceit, now you’ve made your point. I think it’s time for you to go now.

DECEIT: [sinking down] All right, but I won’t be back soon…

VIRGIL: [threatening voice] You’re better saying the truth right now.

THOMAS: Well, now I must draw a plan of action. Any suggestions?

LOGAN: If you have their phone number, I suggest that you call Garnet and tell them on the phone. It may make the conversation easier.

THOMAS: It’s an idea.

HONESTY: [suddenly rising up] Where is he!? Where is that poisonous snake!?

THOMAS: Oh, Honesty, you’re back! Deceit has just left.

HONESTY: [shouting] You can run but you can’t hide, Deceit! Sooner or later I’ll get you! I hope you’re not paying attention to anything he said, Thomas!

THOMAS: I’m sorry, Honesty, but in this case I think both of you have part of the reason. There is no possible way I can tell the truth to everyone without causing a huge mess.

HONESTY: [offended] I can’t believe you’re considering…

VIRGIL: I like the idea as much as you do, Honesty. Lying only brings up trouble and… well, anxiety, but sadly there’s no choice here.

HONESTY: Okay, if you’re all decided, then I have no reason to stay here and watch such a pitiful show. Good luck in your dishonest ways, Thomas.

THOMAS: But please, don’t get mad at me, Honesty.

HONESTY: [angry] How could I not get mad when you’re denying me and refusing to pay attention to me?

THOMAS: I do pay attention to you! I always try to be an honest person, so you play a huge part in my life! But, within some limits, I need to pay attention to the other Sides too, if the situation calls for it. Even to those I don’t like so much and even if I don’t like what they propose.

HONESTY: Well, you’re the boss, Thomas, but don’t complain to me if anything goes wrong, which probably will!

VIRGIL: Please, don’t make him more anxious, Honesty, that’s my job and I’m already at full cap.

[Honesty doesn’t answer. He simply sinks down and leaves]

LOGAN: Wow, he’s really got angry.

PATTON: Well, I understand him, what we’re going to do is wrong… or at least it’s not completely right. Gosh… morality can become so complicated sometimes…

THOMAS: Guys, I still haven’t made up my mind about what to do. Honesty has made me reconsider everything again…

LOGAN: This is starting to look like a ping-pong match, Thomas. In the end it’s you and only you who must make the choice about who to tell the truth and who to lie. We’re here to give you the options but we can’t choose in your place.

THOMAS: I know, Logan, I know…

DECEIT: [appearing again] Then if you know, you should get to work right now. The more time you wait, the worse it will get and the harder it will be for you.

VIRGIL: What are you doing back here?

DECEIT: I felt he needed a little extra push to start lying, so I came here to bite him.

THOMAS: What?

DECEIT: I mean… I came here to give you words of courage.

THOMAS: I see… Well, Deceit, I don’t think it’s safe for you to be here right now. Honesty is looking for you and he was especially angry today.

DECEIT: [angry voice, yelling] Oh! That magnificent, wonderful, father of a virgin!

PATTON: I don’t think I want to know what he really meant with all those inverted qualifiers.

THOMAS: Yeah, at least he saved me some time in the editing room with the censor bleep effects and all…

DECEIT: You say he’s been here? No wonder why you lost your will to lie! I’m not afraid of him! I’ll wait for him and we’ll see if he has what it takes to face me!

THOMAS: Again, no fighting in the living room…

DECEIT: Oh, there wouldn’t be any fighting at all. It would be so short no one would even notice.

[Deceit opens his mouth in a grotesque smile and reveals two long fangs covered with poison that looks like viscous green slime]

ROMAN: [disgusted] Eeewww!

VIRGIL: [looking away] Gross…

PATTON: [unimpressed] What? What’s wrong with goo? I like playing with goo.

LOGAN: Would you mind hiding those fangs, and that poison? [mumbling] So that’s why they call you Slimy Boi…

DECEIT: [with the fangs already gone] I think I’m gonna go get him myself first. So he’ll better not be looking for me, cause he’s gonna find me, and he’s not gonna like it!

[Deceit sinks down]

THOMAS: Okay, this is getting me way more anxious than it should, and I was already quite anxious today.

VIRGIL: [with his hood on, and with a demonic voice] YOU BET…

LOGAN: Okay, let’s sum up. You had considered three options. One, tell Garnet what Amethyst told you without uncovering them; Two, tell Pearl what Garnet supposedly did; or three, tell Pearl and Garnet what Amethyst has told you.

ROMAN: So, Thomas, the time has come. No more hesitation and no turning back. You must make a choice. What do you choose? Option number one, option number two or option number three? Man, I sound like Wayne Brady from “Let’s Make a Deal”!

THOMAS: I think I’m gonna let Garnet explain themselves. I’m gonna call them first. And I’ll act based on what they say.

LOGAN: Okay, it’s your choice. Let’s hope it comes out right.

THOMAS: Me too, Logan, me too. Okay, I’ll call him…

[Thomas gets away from the Sides, sits down in the sofa, picks up the phone and calls a number. We can’t hear was he’s saying while the other Sides speak]

PATTON: You know what? I think he chose the best option out of the three. At least he’s gonna give them a chance to defend themselves.

LOGAN: I agree with you, Patton. The less falsehoods he has to commit, the better.

VIRGIL: You know what? Hearing you two is calming me down…

ROMAN: Oh, look, he’s hung up. He’s coming back… Well, how did it go?

THOMAS: [angry voice] I’m so angry now, you guys!

PATTON: Why, kiddo?

THOMAS: Can you believe it? It looks that Amethyst has lied to me! Garnet already knew who had told me from the moment I started speaking. It happens that Amethyst has used me to try and break Garnet and Pearl’s relationship. Garnet even had an alibi, and they sent me a pic to my phone to prove it!

VIRGIL: Wow!

THOMAS: I’m feeling like such a fool! I never considered the option that Amethyst could be lying to me all along! Sometimes I can be so gullible!

PATTON: Wow! You were trying to avoid breaking your friends’ hearts and the heart that has ended being broken has been me! I mean yours!

THOMAS: I’ll have some words with that liar, for sure, but not today. I’m too nervous and I don’t wanna lose control. But Amethyst’s gonna hear from me, you bet they will!

LOGAN: Okay, with that settled down, I think we have another issue in our own hands now.

THOMAS: What do you mean?

LOGAN: Deceit and Honesty. If they find each other, the Great War is gonna look like a game of Battlefield compared to their clash. [sinking down] Let’s hope we can find them before it’s too late.

ROMAN: [sinking down] Yes, I’m going with you.

PATTON: [sinking down] I hope they don’t hurt each other. I don’t want anyone of you fighting, kiddos.

VIRGIL: [sinking down] Well, I wouldn’t mind Deceit receiving a lesson, but I don’t like the consequences that could have on Thomas, so…

THOMAS: Good luck, guys. Okay. If you ever encounter or have already encountered yourselves in a problem like the one today, you must always think carefully your course of action. Thinking carefully about what to do is vital to make the right choices. You may encounter yourself at a disjunction where the many options could feel both good and bad. If that happens, trust your heart, follow your principles, think about all the possible outcomes and act in consequence. Lies, as we already know, are difficult to avoid, and sometimes they’ll be literally impossible to avoid. Be careful in those cases to not take the lie too far away up to a point it would be harmful for yourselves or anyone involved. In the end, the choice about what to do or say is always yours, and I know that being honest may not always be possible, but in my experience, being as much honest as you can and not lying more than what is needed is the best way to live in peace with yourselves. Until next time, take it easy, guys, gals and non binary pals. Peace out!

[end card. Honesty is in a random room in the Mind Palace]

HONESTY: Where are you, Deceit? Stop hiding right now! I can feel you really close right at this moment! I know you’re approaching to me! What? Do you wanna fight? Then you’re gonna… Ugh!

[suddenly, Honesty feels a huge pain in the stomach as if some invisible fist had punched him. An orange cloud then covers his whole body. While he screams, his shadow is seen inside the cloud, and it morphs slowly. The umbrella disappears, the suit turns into a capelet, the fedora into a bowler hat and the cloud color changes from orange to yellow. Then finally the cloud disappears and from the cloud Deceit emerges. He feels a little dizzy for a few seconds, then he starts yelling]

DECEIT: Where are you, Honesty? I can sense that you’re near! Stop hiding! Sooner or later I’m gonna sink my fangs into your heart and you’ll stop being a nuisance once and for all!

[Roman rises up next to him]

ROMAN: Oh, Deceit, there you are. Guys! I found him!

[All the Sides rise up next to Deceit]

DECEIT: What are you all doing here?

LOGAN: We’re avoiding a massacre, of course. You’re not gonna do anything to Honesty. He’s our friend and Thomas needs him.

DECEIT: And what are you going to do to stop me?

VIRGIL: Guys, don’t worry about it. I can take care of this from now on. I know how to stop him.

ROMAN: Are you sure, Virgil? You don’t need any help from us?

VIRGIL: I’ll be okay, guys, don’t worry. You guys, go find Honesty. I know how to deal with Deceit.

PATTON: Well, if you say so. But be careful, kiddo.

VIRGIL: [smirks] Yes, Dad.

[Patton smiles. Then all the Sides except Virgil and Deceit sink down]

VIRGIL: Okay, Deceit, they’re gone now. You don’t have to keep up your act.

DECEIT: Act? What act?

VIRGIL: Come on, I’ve pretended all the time out there I didn’t know who you were, even though I almost messed up the first time I saw you there all so posh. Don’t you think it’s time to stop this nonsense?

DECEIT: I don’t know what you’re talking about.

VIRGIL: Come on, Deceit. I know you didn’t know that I had seen you long ago in the Dark Realm shape shifting to that form but I did. Stop pretending and tell me what you’re up to before I tell the others!

DECEIT: Living in the Light Realm has made you go crazy, Virgil. I… Ugh!

[Suddenly, Deceit feels pain in the stomach and the yellow cloud appears again]

VIRGIL: Oh, look, Brigadier, look, I think he’s changing!

[The transformation happens again and Honesty appears in front of Virgil]

VIRGIL: Well, here we go again…

HONESTY: [after shaking his face a bit] Oh, hello, Virgil. Have you seen Deceit? I can feel he’s really close but every time I approach him, he slips away from me! It’s like I get close and close, almost as if he was facing me, and then the next second he’s gone. He’s as slippery as the snake he is, for sure!

[realizing that Honesty doesn’t know he’s Deceit and Deceit doesn’t know he’s Honesty, Virgil shows a face of huge shock]

HONESTY: What’s the matter? It looks as if you had seen a ghost!

VIRGIL: [talking to himself] Wow… things are gonna get complicated from now on. How am I even going to tell the others now?

TOO GOOD TUESDAY INTERVIEW: Hot Milk

Dual fronted and self-described emo powerpop band Hot Milk have opened for You Me At Six, Deaf Havana and are confirmed to be on the road supporting Foo Fighters for a few shows in August – all before the release of their debut EP. Jim Shaw, Han Mee, Tom Paton and Harry Deller make up the four-piece band that makes “rock music for the modern age” and when you give debut single, “Awful Ever After” and “Take Your Jacket” a listen you’ll know it’s much more than just that. Their music fills a void that the early 2000’s punk-pop left and doing it with their own style. Despite performing at various shows and prepping for their debut EP, Are You Feeling Alive? that is due out on May 3rd, Jim and Han were able to take some time to talk with Too Good Music about Hot Milk, their upcoming EP and much more. Check out the full interview below:

TOO GOOD MUSIC: So let’s start with probably the most asked question you guys get – why the name Hot Milk?

HAN: So me and Jim had written a couple of tracks and we were like, we should probably put a name on all this. So as all things usually start with us we got a bottle of wine and were lying on the rug in our living room just shouting out words. Hot Milk was just the one and we knew right away. We always wanted a bit of a oxymoron and juxtaposition as well as something that was short and sweet so HOT MILK WAS BORN!!

TGM: Ha! Sounds easy enough and so how did you all end up coming together to become Hot Milk?

JIM: Me and Han had lived together and done a couple of bands before we started writing together but one evening on a bleak day in January we were just fed up and thought fuck it, let's grab the acoustic (and again a bottle of wine) and have at it. There and then in 25 mins “Take Your Jacket” was born, it was weird really. Then when we needed to play these songs live and actually take them out of our bedrooms we got our mate Tom from my old band in on bass and Tom knew Deller from a previous band too. We all just click so well when it comes to everyday life as well as musically so it all made a beautiful little family.

TGM: Speaking “Take Your Jacket” - what’s the story/inspiration behind the song?

HAN: It's kind of a get the fuck out my life but with a nice big smile. It wasn't necessarily about a person for me but more a feeling of wanting to move on from something with strength and a bit of sass.

TGM: And so going back to the band for a little bit what’re the benefits of being a duel fronted band when it comes to the creative process? What are the challenges?

HAN: Well to be honest I wouldn't wanna do this without Jim by my side, for me there was never another option. How boring to do this up front alone! We know each other so well and spend all our waking hours with each other on and off tour so the creative process for us easy, he is my brother. HOWEVER, we argue all the time. Every song is an argument but, it's always laughed off and always through love. Challenges wise though, our live shows have to be tight. We need to know who is speaking where or else it'll be a battle for the mic.

TGM: Makes sense! And so wow would you describe a Hot Milk concert?

HAN: FUN. We want people to come watch us and leave the everyday bullshit at the door. Our shows are a time to let go and just be yourself. The modern day doesn't offer us a reprieve very often and if we can make our shows a place where people can reclaim themselves for a bit then we have won.

TGM: I love that line - “reclaim themselves” - and I agree that that’s exactly what a concert should be about. And so how would you describe Hot Milk’s sound?

JIM: I think our sound is rock music for the modern day. We listen to such a variety of music we just put everything we love into our songs and it comes out this frankenstein combo. We call it Emo Powerpop but essentially think a rock core dressed up with synth parts, strong melody and a little flirtation with pop punk.

TGM: Now, if Hot Milk sounds “emo powerpop”, what kind of sound would a band called Cold Milk have?

HAN: Whale noises backed up with panpipes but recorded through a drywall.

TGM: Ha! Cold Milk sounds terrible. But so going back to Hot Milk, what can fans expect from your debut EP, Are You Feeling Alive?

JIM: I think a little snippet of what we have to offer. The other two tracks on this record are just as strong as the first two singles we feel and offer some different shades to the Hot Milk palette. I think it shows we have a lot of tricks up our sleeves.

TGM: What’s the story behind the EP title?

HAN: The whole EP is about not feeling very happy or present in life and feeling like you're on the wrong path. For a long time I felt like life has just carried me a certain way without me realising and I had been swept away with it, I didn't feel very alive or like I was living my own personal gut aspiration. This EP is literally our way of reclaiming our lives and helping us deal with some emotions. AYFA? is a bit like a diary of that whole process.

TGM: You guys opened up for You Me At Six – what was the biggest thing you learned from sharing a stage with them?

JIM: I think how to just relax into a tour and when things go wrong just be ok with, learn from it for sure but don't stress. We really enjoyed getting to know those guys and we have a lot of respect for them.

TGM: And you’re also currently opening for Deaf Havana – what’s been the biggest take away from touring with them?

HAN: What lovely humans!! We love how welcoming they've been to us so I think for me it's really set the example of how to be a headline band. We already live by a mantra of kindness but it was really great to tour with a band who think the same and still have that mindset despite being 14 years into their career.

TGM: You guys recently played a hometown show – what was that experience like? Is it nerve-racking or calming playing to crowds filled with people you know?

JIM: We loved it! So good being in front of loves ones and friends. We are all about the love and we felt a lot of it that night. We just love playing shows but to play to people who know is was quite settling and calming yeah.

TGM: What would be a dream venue to play a headlining show at?

JIM: Brixton for me, would be a great accolade to have as it's such a legendary UK venue.

TGM: Individually, if you could only listen to (5) artists for the rest of your life who would they be?

HAN: oooooof, hard. Miles Davis coz you gotta have some chill. Jon Hopkins. The Band Camino. Sea Girls. Ramones.

JIM: The Band Camino. Billie Eilish. Architects. Nothing, nowhere. Japanese House.

TGM: Lastly, what’s the rest of 2019 look like for you guys?

HAN: Busy hopefully! We are doing a bunch of festivals and some shows with the Foo Fighters which is keeping us preoccupied for now but honestly I don't wanna stop. I feel myself mostly when on the road and the stage so I hate being at home, we're just ready to keep it moving and have a lot of fun along the way.
