#he wont get out so. we gotta make due

[eating-figs-here]

guysss. Have u ever thought about how Kabukimono was a given name to Wanderer by his beloved community and now how. Hat Guy is another given name from his beloved community?? (it was started by Nahida but the others jumped onto it) like yes yes Wanderer has a history of being given names by others (squints at Scaramouche) but like. I find it really sweet how both Kabukimono and Hat Guy can be seen as silly and ridiculous names, bc frankly they are, but Wanderer is just like: yea that's me what about it??

I just love the mirroring of Kabukimono being asked by (someone? Was it Niwa??) if he really wanted to be called Kabukimono and he was just like: yes!! It's what my friends call me :D!! While Nahida turns to Wanderer and is like: What? I thought you liked being called Hat Guy? :]] and he. he doesn't deny it. It's like a neighborhood all universally agreeing on some stray cat's name. It's beautiful and kinda comforting to a degree? Bc it's like.. A verbal reassurance that he means something to his community. He IS someone to them, not a tool, not a means to an end. He is Kabukimono! The one seen helping around the forge and entertaining kids! The earnest and slightly out of depth newcomer that the village welcomes all the same! He is Hat Guy! A figure who has been seen tailing the Dendro Archon and saying cryptic things with a grin!! A new guy who joined Vahumana, and is even popular enough to the point that students actively seek him out!!

maybe I'm just personally weird about it because names hold a lot of meaning to me so I'm projecting on my resident little guy. but. I have many thoughts about Wanderer + his various identities and how the people he was surrounded by affected them. maybe I'll draw something about it to organize my ideas better.

I love imaging Dick, Tim, and Damian sneaking around trying to meet Jasons new gf because they just wanna be involved in his life and they know if they they leave it to Jay they wont meet her u til they're married with kids 😭

AND ‘omg us meeting Jason’s siblings when’

AN: Ngl I love this idea too, its so shitty of them but they have the best of intentions.

Damian

A boy no older than 14 with eyes that pierce the soul was not what you'd expected to find on Jason's couch the very first time he'd left you alone there. Jason had to dip out unexpectedly early, and had promised you run of the place until he got back so you'd slept in as long as you could and were on your way to make breakfast when you're greeted by the hell-child.

Once your initial fright wears off you realise you recognize him from a photo Jay had showed you which makes you feel slightly more at ease.

“Good morning? Damian right?” You offer as you pass him, be-lining for the coffee machine, you're gonna need caffeine if you're meeting any member of Jay's family for the first time. “Can I get you anything?”

“Alfred says it's unbecoming to sleep past 9.” Besides the initial glare he'd graced you with as you emerged from the bedroom, he doesn't even look up at you, his eyes glued to the pages of a book. Like brother like brother, you guess.

“Oh, well. Good thing Alfreds not here then.” You add a small laugh, trying to inject some humour to the situation. Damian does not respond in kind. “Is that a no? I think there's some chocolate cereal around here somewhere.”

“What do you do for work that allows you to be in my brother's home in the middle of the day?”

Jeez this kid is no-nonsense. “Or I could make pancakes, I make really good pancakes.”

“And tell me what exactly are your intentions with my baby brother?” Baby?

“I think there's some chocolate chips around here somewhere. Jason says you like chocolate. Chocolate pancakes?”

“Do you always avoid questions?”

“Are you always so intense?”

He slams the book closed and you nearly jump on the spot. He finally looks at you, really looks at you and as you stare back his features begin to soften slightly.

“I’ll have a coffee.”

You're certain from the sly look on his face that he's probably not allowed coffee. He certainly doesn't need any. But screw it, he's not your kid and if it gets him to like a little, you'll take the risk.

So you pour two coffees and join him on the couch. His questions do not cease until Jason returns about an hour later. He couldn't care less about the coffee, but he does care about Damian breaking in to interrogate his partner and immediately kicks Damian out.

Dick

Dick finds out about your existence from one of Damian’s letters, and he's subtle but pushy about meeting you. Not that you're aware. He keeps ‘dropping by’ Jason's apartment ‘just to see his lil brother’, no other reason but is told to get lost or downright ignored anytime you're there, until he decides to cut out the middle man and turn up at your home instead.

“Let me tell you, you are a hard person to get a hold of.” He informs as he invites himself through your front door.

“Um, hello Dick?” As you stare at his lush hair and sculpted abs you wonder what Alfred feeds these boys.

“Yep! I can't stay so I’ve gotta make this quick.” he gestures for you to come closer, speaking in a playful, conspiratorial whisper. “Jay doesn't know I'm here.”

That would be why he can't stay, Jason is due at your door any minute now.

“But you two seem to be getting pretty serious and I think it's important that we all get to know each other. You following?”

You nod, and he gives you the perkiest, most genuine smile. That or he has that exact look practised to a T. From what Jay tells you, either is possible.

“So, Barbara and I, that's my wife” You nod once more, you're aware of Barbara also. “have booked a table at Casa Gotica for Thursday night. We need you to get Jason there without letting on that it's a double date.”

“I don’t know.” you finally give your nodding head a break. “Jay and I don’t lie to each other.”

“Right. I can't begrudge that. Very glad to hear he's picked an honest one.” He takes a moment to straighten his thoughts, but his moment is cut short but the echo of Jason’s combat boots approaching your door. Dick’s eyes rapidly scan the room for a secondary exit before he settles on an open window. “Don't think of it as lying, think of it as omitting the truth. Whatever you have to do just be there for 6.30. Oh, and it's great to meet you!”

“You too.”

“Thursday, 6.30!”

Before you can agree he’s gone, presumably scaling the side of your building as Jay steps inside.

Tim

Tim was actually the first to be aware of you and your relationship with his brother, however, the very real possibility of being gutted by Jason for snooping in his personal life was too high for him to make a move.

But you seeking him out is a different story; or rather, you being the first to say hi when you bump into each other in line at the grocery store is different. It would be rude not to respond to your attempts at initiating a conversation.

“Hello, hi, are you Tim? You don't know me but I’m Jasons partner. Its so great to meet you.”

“I know who you are.” He states rather ominously, eyes darting around behind you. “Is he here?”

“No, but he's picking me up after.” His shoulders visibly ease.

“Cool cool cool.” He’s suddenly much more personable. “So, I hear you're into…”

That chatting doesn't dry or lul at all as the queue dwindles and both buy your groceries. He waits with you until you get confirmation from Jay that he's on his way. He's easily the chillest sibling you've met thus far.

When Jason arrives he gets out of the car to open the boot and passenger door for you as always, but not before he thrusts his phone in your face. “Where is he?”

Displayed on the screen is a selfie of Tim with you in the background, you absolutely do not remember it being taken.

“Matt, c’mon, we gotta film this last clip!” Chris called from the living room. You were currently in the shower, in Matt’s room. You hear him groan, before hearing his feet shuffle around his room, and you assume he was changing from his pajamas into his ‘filming outfit’, making himself look more presumable.

Matt slowly makes his way downstairs, seeing a confused Chris and seemingly happy Nick.

“Stupid fucking camera wont focus,” Chris growls, twisting the knobs on the top of the device.

Shortly after Matt situated himself on the couch, laying back with his legs spread, Chris got the camera to focus. Just around the same time the shower shut off, indicating you had gotten out.

“Hey guys! That video was filmed—“ Nick started, but Matt wasn’t listening. He drowned Nick’s voice out, when his own mind began filling with thoughts of you. Filthy thoughts. How your body looked with the warm water droplets ran down your soft skin, the way your tits perked up, the way your ass looked so soft and shiny. This kid was letting his imagination run wild. He felt his pants begin to tighten, so brought his hands back down to his crotch, realizing he was filming.

Such a slut. He slowly rubbed his jeans, only for a moment, praying none of the viewers would notice. He was cut out from his trance when he heard Nick speak again.

“Right, Matt?” He asked, his tone demanding, as if he was disgusted with what Matt had been thinking— yet he didn’t even know.

“What-? Oh- yeah. Right. Let us know if you guys want more vlogs on Fridays’, instead of a car video on Wednesday and a different video on Friday! Thank you all for watching!” Matt finishes off, Nick glares at him, while Chris smiles happily from behind the camera.

“Yeah!” Chris yells excitedly, before ending the video. “That should be good!” Chris smiles, setting the camera down.

“Yeah, if no one notices that Matt was scratchin’ his balls the entire end of the video.” Nick scoffs, and Chris’ and Matts’ jaws drop— as if Matt hadn’t known what he was doing.

“Nick! Shut the fuck up! I wasn’t!” Matt defends himself, before quickly getting up and rushing to his room, not giving his brothers enough time to notice the tent in his jeans.

The boy lets out a deep exhale as he enters the safety of his own room, quickly locking the doors of his room, and walking quickly over to his bed. He immediately threw off his sweater and shirt, making himself breathe a lot easier— and hopefully dull down the sweating. he pulls his pants down, tossing all of the clothing in his hamper, laying flat on his bed.

Unbeknownst to Matt, you were still in his bathroom. He had figured once you finished your shower, you’d head to Nicks room, like usual, but you weren’t quite done yet. You were drying off and getting dressed.

Matt scurries to slide his boxers down to his lower thighs, his hard cock slapping his lower stomach. He hissed as the cold air harshly kissed his cock. He glanced at his cock, cringing at himself as he took it in his own hand. How disgusting this had happened due to thoughts of his own friend.

Matt began slowly stroking his dick, using his precum to make his cock slick enough to work with. He kissed his teeth, letting his head fall back as he played with his own tip, running the tips of his fingers ever so gently over his slit, before taking the palm of his hand, rubbing fast circles over the brightest part of his cock, causing him to slip out a loud moan.

Your ears perked up, as you furrowed your eyebrows. Probably just a weird movie he was watching. Before you got in the shower, he was talking about how he wanted to watch ‘Saltburn’. You quickly finished up, as to not to disrupt his movie time. Quickly throwing on bottoms and a top, no bra on, you opened the bathroom door.

“Fuck!” Matt whined, thrusting his cock into his own hand. His eyes were screwed shut, his cock dripping all over himself and his sheets below.

You stood in the bathroom doorway, jaw agape, eyes wide. You clear your throat, attempting to make your presence known, which worked. The boy’s eyes snapped open, and he quickly looked at you, before pulling the blanket over his throbbing cock, hissing as the material brushed against his sensitivity.

“Y/N!” He gasps. “What’re you doing here?!” He asks, fear flooding his eyes and the tone in his voice.

“I-I just got out of the shower! I didn’t mean to— fuck! I’m sorry!” You spoke frantically, quickly turning to face the wall, your face plastered with fear, but your body filled with something else.

You had been friends with the triplets for quite some time, now, and you always had an underlying crush on Matt. It hadn’t ever been ‘severe’ enough to where you’d risk ruining your friendship, so you never spoke on it. To anyone. However, to some people, like Nick and your other close friends, it was painfully obvious. To others, like Matt himself, couldn’t even tell.

“You- I- Sorry..” Matt sighed, and you could hear him pulling his boxers back up, as he covered his red face with his blanket.

“It’s okay. It’s natural. I— I’ll go, so you can.. get back to it..” You mumble awkwardly.

‘If only she knew I was thinking about her.’ Matt thought to himself, before shaking his head.

“I can’t, Y/N. It doesn’t work like that— not for me, at least.” He sighed quietly, and you turned back around to face him.

“Why not..?” You ask in reply to his statement, and he closes his eyes.

“‘Cause now I feel gross,” He whines.

“Oh.” Was all you could reply with, until you suddenly blurted something out. “I can do it for you.?” You suggested randomly, and Matt’s eyes snapped open.

“What-?” Matt tilted his head, showing his clear confusion.

“I could… ya’know.. help out..? Since you can’t do it yourself.?” You suggested quietly.

“Oh- I mean.. I—“ Matt stutters, his eyes still wide. “I don’t want you to do anything you don’t want to,” He shakes his head.

“Trust me, sweet boy. I want to.” You hum suggestively, and he nods.

౨ৎ

“Ah- Fuck, ma!” Matt yelps, his hips bucking into your hand.

“Hips down, Matthew.” You demand, placing your hand on his lower stomach to stop his thrusts, but your action caused him to let out a guttural moan.

“‘m sorry, sweetheart— y-you jus’ know how good ya make me f-feel— shit,” He whines, as you continue to pump his slick and throbbing cock. “O-Oh shit, I-I think I’m g-gonna cum-“ He pants.

“Already, baby?” You hum, tilting your head.

“M-Mhm— yeah. P-please, i need it bad, mamas,” He squirms under your touch, and you let out a disapproving sigh.

“Go ahead. Get yourself off in my hand,” You permit, and he doesn’t need to be told twice. He thrusts his hips into your hand, and you bring your open mouth to his tip, his sensitive cock hitting against your tongue, until he can’t hold it back.

He releases, and lets his milky white ropes of cum paint the inside of your mouth, a few small drops ending up on your lips and chin. You look at him with your doe eyes, and see the boy’s eyes, which were screwed shut, and his bare heaving chest.

You sit up, and brush the hair out of his forehead, allowing yourself to kiss his forehead gently, before letting his hair fall back into place. You were now sitting on his lower stomach, right where his cock was brushing up against your back.

His wet tip rubs against your clothed back, and his eyes shoot open at the foreign stimulation.

“How do you want it, sweet boy?” You offer, but he shakes his head.

“I wanna make you feel good.” He whines, and you put on a fake pout.

“Aw, baby. I know you do, but this is about you, not me.” You speak, but the second he opens his mouth to protest, you quickly cover it to speak again. “I’ve seen how horny you’ve been recently, hun. I know how bad you need it, pretty boy. I’m gonna give you what you need, but i’m asking what way you want it.”

“I- I don’t care— i jus’, I need it..” He whines, and you nod. You take his wrists in your hand, pulling his hands to the hem of your shirt, signaling you wanted it off. He understood and quickly obliged, slipping the silk top over your head, allowing your tits to be completely out for him, and allowing his tip to rub against your bare back.

“Oh God, you’re gorgeous…” He sighs, his hands running along his sides.

“Thank you, handsome.” You smile, standing up, pulling my own shorts and panties down. He licks his lips, his eyes meeting yours again.

“How’re we doing this?” He asks, almost innocently.

“I’m gonna lay on my stomach, and you’re gonna fuck me.” You state, the same faux tone of innocency.

“Oh— okay,” He nods, surprised at your forwardness. He stands up, allowing you to lay down where he had previously been. You quickly move to his bed, laying flat on your stomach, and Matt moaned at the sight. Your ass looks perfect for him. He follows onto the bed, placing himself over you.

He slips his hand between your legs, toying with your clit for only a moment, before shoving two of his fingers in your cunt.

“I know you’re gonna be so tight for me, fuck.” He pants, and you let out a small whine.

“Matt, c’mon.” You growl, and he immediately takes his fingers out of you, causing you to let a pleased smile cover your face. “So obedient for me, like the good boy you are, hm?” You hum approvingly, and you hear him whimper as he slips his tip through your slick folds.

He slowly pushes himself into you, his arms on either sides of your body. He continues pumping himself slowly in and out of you, as you gripped tightly at the sheets. Matt’s cock was bigger than you had.. ‘expected’, but nonetheless, it was great.

“Move faster, c’mon baby.” You hum approvingly, and he does. He slaps his hips fastly into your ass, making it recoil. He groaned at the sight.

“Oh-Oh God,” He whines, his head falling forwards, resting in-between your shoulders. You could feel him throbbing inside of you, just as he was able to feel you pulsing around him. “‘m— fuck, ‘ Needa cum,” He groans, and you let out a sharp exhale.

“Go on.” You permit, and almost immediately he listens. His white sticky cum fills you, and your release quickly follows behind his. He slowly pulls out of you, and flopping besides you. As much as he seemed fucked out, you knew he could give you one more.

You sit up, shuffling over and placing yourself into his lap, his still hardened dick pressing harshly against your ass. His eyes widen as he looks up at you, seemingly scared for what you had coming.

“More..?” He whispers, and you nod.

“I know you can handle one more, baby.” You affirm, rubbing your hand along his cheek, placing a gentle kiss to his lips.

“O-okay..” He approves, and you can’t help but smile. You lift yourself up, gently grabbing his cum-streaked cock, lining it up with your cunt.

He bites his bottom lip, in attempts to hold back all of the filthy sounds that threatened to escape his lips. You slowly sink down on him, and his hands immediately flew to your hips, squeezing and releasing the softness.

“Mmph- fuck,” He huffs, his eyes shut tightly and his head fallen backwards. “S-sensitive,” He cries out, and you put on a faux sympathetic expression.

“Awe, my poor baby,” You hushed, before quickly speeding up your movements, causing him to let out a sharp gasp. You continue to bounce up and down, his eyes still screwed shut, small noises still slipping from his mouth, as you bounced somehow gracefully on his slick cock.

“Oh- ‘m gonna cum, gonna-“ He cries out, his hips slapping upwards as the knot in his stomach snapped, tears rolling down his face. You continued to bounce on him, reaching your own high, and the second you hit it, creaming all over his dick, he lets out a loud yelp, pulling your hips back down onto him all the way, releasing yet again.

You sit on top of him, waiting until his breathing evens out, before beginning to lift off of him- but he doesn’t allow you to.

“Please stay.. like this.” He pleas. “I like this.. I like you,” He mumbles quietly.

“I like you too, Matt. Always have.” You approve, situating yourself on his lap, pulling the blanket over the both of you, hiding the fact that his cock was still wedged inside of you.

Bad End: Preserve Us

You know how in conservation biology you sometimes try to introduce a pair to be mated and one will just... just fuckin' merc' the other? Just absolutely obliterate them in a hissing, growling, nightmare ball of fury? Before anyone can stop them? Territorial and (to put it lightly) "uninterested", dispite your desperate desire to save their species from extinction, and need for them to get frisky?

I know.

Holy SHIT do I know.

There's a lot of reasons. Ways you can (hopefully) get around it. But first? Is finding out WHY it happened. Was it just the one? The environment? Were they sick? Or... as is the case sometimes, did they decide their Handler was their mate? Some species only mate once. Are loyal for life. You gotta work around that.

Which is all well and fine and good.

When we're talking about ANIMALS.

Non-sentient, non-sapient animals! Not ALIEN SPECIES! What the ABSOLUTE FRESH HELL did they expect from me!? Compliance?! This was UNETHICAL! Monstrous! I had been trying to slip my gaurds long enough to radio for help SINCE I GOT HERE.

I hope the fuckers ROTTED in whatever their Gods considered a Hell.

"Conservation facility" my ENTIRE ASS. You can't run CONSERVATION EFFORTS like this on SENTIENTS. Eugenics loving, atrocity fetishizing, immoral BASTARDS!!! And they KNEW it too. They HAD too! Or they wouldn't be HIDING it! Fucking KIDNAPPING scientists! Biologists! Doctors!

I was on my ways to study Lekku monkeys!

God...

I'm? I'm so tired of being pissed.

Furious and outraged and SCARED. Horrified and sick. There are PEOPLE here. Kids! And I don't... oh god, I don't... H-How LONG has this been going ON? Why did no one NOTICE?

Every day I feel my heart break. The desire to scream and scream and never STOP, grow inside me. I have to get out. I have to get us ALL out. Get these people FREE. Do SOMETHING. But I am forced to "conserve" the species assigned to me. The group assigned to me.

It's killing my love for the field. Making a mockery of everything I worked for.

I don't... I don't think my hands will ever be clean again.

But I have to help. Do everything I can. Make hell a little kinder, if nothing else. At least while I figure out a way OUT. My group deserves better. The groups I do not work with, deserve better.

I disguise games as "testing". Pages and pages of meaningless numbers ans scores. INSIST that enrichment is the key to success. Diet is EVERYTHING. Oh, and habitat? Well unless we can mimic their habitat there's no WAY they'll "breed".

No, no, using machines would stress them out too much.

It's like you DONT want babies!

Who's the expert here? That's RIGHT! Dr. Cho, but FAILING her and like five other people? Me. And I know for a FACT they are pulling the same scam. We ALL fucking hate you. Dr. Cho has KIDS, you FUCKS. Hasn't seen her son in YEARS thanks to you bastards. He was engaged. She's probably missed his WEDDING thanks to you!

Getting distracted, spiraling again, gotta stop DOING that.

It wont help anyone.

But God, if my brain doesn't slowly feel like it's shorting out the longer I'm here. Stress is called the silent killer for a reason. Or what that something else? Fuck. I can't even look it up! Bastards cut us off from the galactic web. Full information blackout. Because of COURSE they did... can't risk us rightfully calling for help.

Getting the Feds involved to shut this hell pit of a black site DOWN. Or a "whatever it truely is" site. Because it sure as SHIT has nothing to do with conservational biology. Except maybe the abuse of it.

But that doesn't help me right now.

Focus, damn it!

The Yanderens. Old, absurdly rare, nearly extinct, with a home planet they'd reduced to uninhabitable wastelands millennia ago due too... something. No one knew what. There had definitely been fighting. It WAS documented they were excellent fighters. Ruthless ones at that. But it was ALSO documented they strongly pack bonded.

There had been a lot of strongly worded warnings on what few documation my captures were able to find, translate, then shove at me. But honestly? They said the same thing about humans. Ooooh big scary persistent hunters~ oh nooooo! Watch out for the omnivores with a history of war! Sins of the father and we are defined by our diets! Class systems! Let's all JUDGE each ooooootheeeeer~!

Yeah, no. Not buying it.

Especially when the "warnings" were so damn vague and poorly documented. All "the HORRORS!" and "we barely SURVIVED!". Cause honestly? The Yanderens I was watching over? Easily the most mild and temperate individuals I had ever met. No tantrums from the kids, no big emotional meltdowns, just curiosity and at WORST? Mild frustration.

It made everything ten thousand times worse for me, that these poor people were in this hellish place. They were calm. Curious. Meant for greater, BETTER things! They should be out, playing and learning. Exploring and enjoying peaceful strolls in some art gallery or zen garden somewhere! Not... not this sterile fucking LAB.

But then M-17 loses his SHIT.

And now I'm kinda panicking. Because F-6 is not just dead, God rest her soul (she didn't deserve this. Oh god. She was so SWEET.), but M-17 might just be too, soon. If I can't find out what HAPPENED. Because if he's "feral" or "diseased" or whatever other horrifying terminology they end up using? They DO something about it.

And I can't actually stop them.

I... I don't know if it was a trauma response. Or I did something wrong. I could PROBABLY pass it off as my needing more studies into their observed "mating habits"? That... that I somehow... turned it... uuuuh... dominance battle? Shit. Where are my notes?!

F-6 is DEAD and its all my fault.

She was such a cuddle fiend too. Always excited to hear about my studies, from before. My life. Wanted to join me after we got out of here. I never should have let her volunteer. Granted, she wouldn't have taken no for an answer. Wanted to spend the pregnancy plotting our escape. Asked me to help raise the kid once we got out. Had a whole grand plan. But I...And I...

God...

I should have said NO. Insisted. It was just so hard, when F-6 had made it all sound like it would be okay. Like she had a plan and all I need to do was trust her. Believe in her. Then we could be free.

I had hoped M-17 would work best. He was always the most agreeable and quick on the uptake. I figured... well... ha ha. God, I'm such an IDIOT. I should have CHECKED. Who KNOWS what happened before I arrived? What triggered I just accidentally rammed my foot into? FUCK! I sweep everything from me desk onto the ground. Don't give I shit that I'll have to clean it up later,

I had figured M-17 would be COOL with it.

This place is getting to me, isn't it?

Why the FUCK would anyone be COOL with getting jumped? Bred like an animal? Shoved in some random ass room, with a vaguely familiar stranger, and told "now fuck. We want a literal litter from you two"? All while some biologist watchs and makes god damned NOTES!?

Of course he fought back. OF COURSE he didn't stop!

The only one there he could trust was himself.

I...I'm becoming a monster... aren't I?

Oh god.

At least we're in the satellite facility. The gaurds are definitely going to rat me out, but the news will take time to filter back. And... and the Yanderens being so "dangerous" might work in my favor. I... I can spin this. I HAVE to spin this. I can't let TWO people die for my fuck up.

I promised myself I would get as many people out as I could. I refuse to back out now. Even if that means crying, puking, then going out there to lie my ASS off. This was TOTALLY NORMAL. In fact, expected! Yep! It means that's we've determined that M-17 is the alpha Yanderen! A thing that is both REAL and possible to BE!

I rinse my mouth, stomach empty. Crying has exhausted me. But I can't give up. Too many lives count on me now. I... I wish so badly I was just a nobody again. Just some random biology student, trying to make a name for herself. Being "important" is a CURSE.

I try not to chug my water as I half stumble out of the glorified shoebox that is my bathroom into the much larger and Fancier CLOSET that is my room. Truely, no expense spared, for the captives they ripped away from their lives. So glad I am here willingly and of my own volition.

I gather myself. Finally ready to go and try to untangle the mess I have made of everything. When a deep booming alarm rattles my bones. The lights flickering to red. Blast doors slide down, SLAM shut over the transparent recessed bit of wall that counts as my window, the door to the rest of the facility.

Trapping me inside my small room.

Almost immediately after, an EXPLOSION rocks the world hard enough to knock me from my feet. Only the bed's limited padding keeping me from a nasty concussion. The edge of it still ramming painfully into my shoulder. Another explosion. Then another. I sit for a long, terrible, second stunned.

The moment passes.

I scramble on my hands and knees for the in facility communication device that I had knocked from my desk in anger, grief. Not daring to stand lest I be thrown down again. I manage to find it as the world shakes again for the fifth time. Followed by what sounds like gun fire out in the halls.

I fling myself back towards my shitty little bunk. Drag every bit of padding and protection I can, down and under it with me. If the roof goes? I want shock absorption. If shots get through the door? I want something to slow those blasts down. Anything. ANYTHING! To increase my fucked chances of surviving.

I burrito up and wriggle back as deep as I can. The world muffled but ending just outside my crawlspace. Then I desperately try to get one of the others on the line. I got nothing but chaos. Running. Running. Hiding. And Dead.

Dead. Dying.

Remember me.

And GONE.

Some of them fighting with their groups too freedom. Some being targeted right along side their captors. Others savaged by the ACTUAL animals they had been working with, the one's Galacticly deemed too dangerous for effort like this. Someone or something had set EVERYONE free. A simultaneous attack on all fronts that our captors could not put down or escape.

The Yanderens were out there.

Oh god. Please let them be okay. They wer-

My thoughts ground to a halt as M-32 LAUNCHED his tiny body onto the screen of one of the security feeds I was desperately looking through. F-6 had figured out how to get us a backdoor to them a long time ago. M-32 was just a kid. A small, soft, cuddly little thing that loved to lean against me and crawl into my lap. All cherubic cheeks and cute little curls. Shy!

Yet I watched... in mounting horror... as like a lion on some unfortunate animal, he landed on a gaurds back. Small arms going around his body in a mockery of a hug. Head tilting so he could BITE at the back of the man's neck, small hands clawing and ripping at weak points in his armor, as he screamed. Thrashed. Tried desperately to get M-32 OFF of him.

There was so much blood.

My hands were shaking. So much, I accidentally hit the next screen button. Jerked my thumb back. But... but oh god. There was F-26. Using the butt of a rifle to slam down against the head of a scientist. Again and again and again. Long after the begging and thrashing stopped. I flipped again. M-4? No... please not M-4. Not the soft spoken and wise...

I watched as he grinned, a cold thing, and shot out another joint. His foot on the chest of the head scientist who had moved him to a different group. In the background, his supervisor lay dead. They had not died quickly. The head scientist was begging. A mess of tears and pain. M-4 shot another joint, pressing his foot down harder.

I wanted to be sick.

I flipped again. And again. And AGAIN.

H...Had I known them at ALL? Like demons wearing the faces of those I'd known. People I'd trusted. Not a SINGLE ONE was... oh... oh god. F-6. Had she been too? Would I have ever known? Was THIS what all those warnings meant? I couldn't think. Couldn't breath. Had... Had never had a panic attack but... BUT-!

I wheezed.

Shook.

"Oh, Clever giiiirl~" A familiar voice sang, before a blood splattered face flickered into being on the screen in my hands. "Where aaaare yoooou~?"

M-17. He'd somehow managed to take over the security cameras. That or the communication feed. His eyes were bright. A grin on his face like I'd never seen from him. ALIVE in a way I'd never seen him. The excitement transformed his face. No longer softly doll like, but something DANGEROUS. Unhinged. His eyes dilated and deadly teeth on display.

"Come out, come out wherever you aaaare~. I have so much to TELL you! We have so much to DO! I'm going to make you MINE sweetheart! No one else can have you. So come out. I won't hurt you much, I promise! Just gotta make you mine then we can leave okay~?"

Furious snarls echoed through the halls. Male and female alike. Old and young. I... I recognized each of those voices. What was HAPPENING?

"Aaaah? Did you TRASH really think you DESERVED her? Ha! Please." M-17 grin was cruel. Mocking. "You don't have a chance in hell of taking what's MINE."

His eyes seems to shift away from unseen enemies and back, somehow, to me. Warming to something euphoric. Resting his head on his hand as if to consider me. His fingers spread, stroking his own face, as if the desire to TOUCH was simply too great. As if what he was imagining was bleeding over into the real world.

"Oh clever girl~ my clever, clever girl~♡ I can't wait til it's just you and ME. Start think of where you want to go first, okay? We're going to get married. Have that child you wanted me for. All the things you ever dreamed~♡ I'm going to have you all to myself. No more annoying others. Ah~ can't wait to find you soon!"

"But first?"

"May the best of us Win."

SMG4: TRASH FRIENDS

I KNOW IM ON BREAK BUT I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THIS!

the cafe isnt looking so hot this episode makes you wonder what happen

im sorry did they just learn they could do this fklfkjlsd i know when they looked into their past they had the old memes do it but SMG4 just causally shared his memory with Three like how and when did they learn this was a thing they could do!

bet if you told your past self this is a thing they would think your crazy

mario may be their avatar but they cant do everything he does

nerd i love you and your need to roast your friend at random ass times.

my lord there is a in universe version of the series run everyone run!

his cafe is failing something he was proud of cause it made him feel like he found his place in the world after years of chasing SMG4 shadow is now failing the old demons are loud again and he is starting to yet again feel like a poor copy of SMG4. We know that Four doesn't think this but he is also the worse at reading people and cant pick up that SMG3 mental state is cracking as he feels himself slipping into the shadow being forgotten

color theory of mine is shining hard this episode when you focus on these two text colors are going. Given that SMG3 repeated a line SMG4 used in SMG4...are you okay? the start of its gotta be perfect movie story line i wonder if Three is gonna go through something similar its sorta reminding me of my fic next step which has Three facing his demons on what he did to four but in the series it seems its him facing the fear of being forgotten because SMG4 has always been popular memewarts trained Three he will always be in the shadow and that lesson is still there

SMG3 breaks down his true face is shown as seen by the color change he doesnt want to be forgotten and is taken by surprise with how mario reacted he isnt sure why he couldnt be open and talk about his feelings maybe because in the past no one cared to listen till now. Makes me wonder if this how adware could get Three if we got the bad ending could this feeling of being forgotten turn him to the dark side once again maybe lost to it forever? But this timeline we got the good ending so could this be a path to save Three maybe we will be tricked into thinking this is how adware gets him but remembering he has people that listen to his true feelings and know and love him for who he is will give him the power to push back the adware?

i mean damn Four i feel that you act like that way more then SMG3 personal thoughts

its out in the open his feelings and now four knows hopefully with this out in the open the can talk and work on how to move forward this change in SMG3 life isnt going to be easy but he isnt alone anymore

this is why i feel adware wont go after Three or fail to, yes he has negative emotions and strong desires that the adware loves to go after but he has his other half, his partner that when they talk about their feelings they can fix the issue and become stronger as a team. All thanks to moving next door that let him bond and have friends

homie accepting death while Mario is minding his own "ah the gays are at it again" is probs on his mind

and there we have it hopefully SMG4 can help 3 save his cafe and maybe work on the issue of still feeling like he lives in his shadows, the man has done so much to feel like SMG4 is better have a feeling this ep happen due to the votes on who is cooler on youtube (smg4 won it)

𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐄𝐊 𝐗 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐃 ! 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑 ━ ♡

parental alphabet

I absolutely love creek it my favorite sp ship! Ive decided to write this out of sheer boredom and my love for creek. I hope you all enjoy !

A - affection

How affectionate are they to their child?

I feel like, while they absolutely love you, they wont be took affectionate, they'll defiantly give you hugs and stuff but not too much

B - Bullying

How would they react to their child being bullied?

Oh boy, the kid who bullied you better get ready for the biggest ass whooping ever.

I feel like Both Tweek and craig will over dramatic things to make the kids punishment very bad.

After you've told them you were / are bullied, craig will be talking to the headteacher: very clearly pissed while Tweek will be hugging you and comforting you

C - clingy

How clingy are they to their child? And vise versa

Despite them not being too affectionate, Tweek is defiantly clingy to you, having you in his arms practically always, he will never let you go any where by yourself. Rarely, when you're not in Tweeks arms you're by Craigs side

Due to your father's clinginess towards you, you also turn clingy to surprisingly both of your dads

D - Dating

How would they react to their child dating?

They both set the rule of 'No dating until you're 18' but you broke it by having a boyfriend when you were little (around 7 or 8) and while they were upset you broke the rule they found you and your boyfriend's playdates to be so adorable.

You also broke the rule when you were in your teenage years, multiple times.

E - education

How well do they educate their child?

Oh you're very well educated, thats because they sent you to the best school they could, they want you to grow up to be extremely successful

F - Family

Do they want you to meet their families?

Tweek doesn't really want you to meet his, since they might make you drink their coffee, and well we all know what they put in there.

Craig doesnt really mind you meeting his family, you gotta meet at least one of your grandparents right?

G - Goodies

What nice things do they buy their child? (E.G. toys, games)

They'll buy you little goodies when you've done something really good, like get a high score on a test or something.

Usually they get you stuff you've talked about liking before, they always make sure they remember what you said you've liked.

H - hate

How do they react to their child saying they hate them?

The first time you've told them you hated them was most likely during an argument in your teenage years.

You wanted to go to a party that all your friends were going to and they didnt let you, since those friends of yours were 'bad influences' so mid argument you yelled out a 'I hate you both!'

Tweek's heart broke and Craig got angry, sending you to your room. They probably both shed a few tears since they care for you so much.

Later though, you apologized and all was forgiven

I - Internet

How much to they limit their child's access on the internet?

They put on safe search and lock it, also put on parental locks. Though its annoying, they dont want your little head to be ruined with 18+ stuff that a little kid like you shoulnt be watching / reading

J - Jokes

Do they joke around with their kids? How bad are their jokes?

I dont think Tweek jokes a lot but Craig defiantly tells stupid classic dad jokes, that are pretty shit but not even gonna lie you laughed at some of them

K - killjoy

How strict are they? Do they allow their kid to go to things like parties?

They are quite strict, yeah. They wont let you to o to parties that go over 10 pm and will not let you do multiple things you friends' parents would.

L - leaving

How do they react when their child needs to leave? (E.G. move out / die)

If you were to move out and or go to uni, they would be very reluctant to let you go, but will the promise of you visiting as much as you could they let you.

If you died, however, they would be heartbroken beyond belief, Tweek would never be able to get over your death even with his husband's help and support. You mattered the world to him. Craig would never get over your death either but he'll try to move on, whats done is done, you're never coming back, even though he really wants you to come back.

M - motherly

Who's the most 'motherly' to their child?

Oh Tweek is defiantly more motherly to you out of the two.

N - Nicknames

What nicknames do they give thier child? And vise versa

Tweeks nicknames for you are :: Sweetie (very rare that he calls you that though) , kiddo.

Craigs nicknames for you are :: Kid, little shit, mini me.

Your nicknames for the both of them are :: Dad, da, pops, papa (when you want something)

O - Overprotective

How protective are they of their child?

Oh yeah, they're quite overprotective, especially Tweek. Like this man will go mental if you're out of his sight for even a second, what if you get hurt!? what if someone takes you away!? what if-

P - Punishment

How would they punish their child?

They're very classical with their punishments, so you'd be grounded and be in time out for punishments.

Q - quality time

How much time do they spend with their child?

Thye try their best to spend good quality time with you but sometimes they simply dont have the time (which is actually surprising due to Tweeks practical need of being around you to keep you safe and happy and Craigs devoted love for his husband)

R - Rebel

How would they react if their child rebelled against them?

they'd try to catch you in the act of rebelling in whatever way you are and ground you on the spot, no 'buts' no arguments you're grounded go to your room .

S - swears

Do they let their kids swear?

Despite Tweek's thoughts against it, Craig teaches you to flip people off from a young age, thats just a necessity.

You usually get in trouble for flipping people off so much, you're truly Craigs kid

T - talk

How often do they have a meaningful conversation with their child?

again, they both try to have meaningful conversations with you but they (again) dont have the time sometimes

U - Uhmm

What do / did they find awkward when around their child?

The puberty talk and the sex talk.

Without a doubt they'll defiantly feel extremely awkward talking to you about these things

V - violence

Would they be violent to their child?

Absolutely not!

Never in a million years would they be violent to you. Sure they'll accidently hurt you when play fighting or giving you a smack round the head for screaming 'fuck' in public but they'd never hit you on purpose for no reason.

W - word

What was their child's first word

You first word was probably, most likely, ' Tweet '

You were trying your best to say your dad's name since you heard your other dad say it so many times

X - Xaroncharoo

How brilliant do they think their child is?

They know you're a brilliant child and will argue with mums and all that about it.

Y - Yelling

Would they yell at their child?

No, they absolutely refuse to yell at you, even when you're yelling at them for some thing.

Z - Zesty

Would they support their child if they were apart of the LGBTQ community?

I mean, they're part of the LGBTQ community, so it'd be really weird if they didn't support you.

I feel like they'd buy you a cake and have a little celebratory moment with you for coming out

They love you so much and want you to know it.

𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐋𝐋 - 9/10, very good parents

Wedding date || c.s

part2

pairing: bestfriend!chris x fem!reader

summary: y/n needs a date to her competitive sisters wedding

warnings: use of y/n, nickname (ma), nc touching (hand on her hip), [very] short fight, sibling argument, random names for sister & her husband

A/n: I’m not sure how many parts thee will be for this but let me know if you want me to keep going with this. i’m giving Emma a colour too this time

Pink=y/n

Orange=chris

green=Emma

༻☙✽༺

“What do you want?”

“I just wanted to talk to you… you look really sexy tonight…”

“Excuse me? Did I miss a chapter? You just married my sister!”

James laughs and steps closer “c’mon don’t be like that”

“Back up, you’re drunk James. Just go back to Emma, your goddamn wife. Drink some water and sober up.”

He doesn’t listen to a word I say, stepping closer, his hand going to my hip. “No one will know.” He leans in one to whisper “Our little secr-”

“Hey! You gotta learn the concept of no, dude!”

James turns to see Chris stood just a few steps away, his face fuming and his its balled up tight. “Hey man, she came onto me.”

“What? That’s a lie! You followed me!”

“Who’s gonna believe you?” His hand sqeezes my hip enough to bruise, Chris notices this due to the look on my face and he shoves James out of the way.

To which James drunkenly retaliates with a punch, Chris hardly even stumbles, the punch not even fazing him. Chris grips onto the collar or James’ suit jacket and shoves him against the wall.

“Chris! Just leave it!”

He doesn’t even acknowledge my words as he speaks to James through gritted teeth. “Stay the fuck away from her, or we will have a fucking problem. Understand?”

James’ only response is a harsh glare, Chris lets go of him and he stumbles away. Cris instantly turns to me, his hand touching my hip gently, a total opposite to how James had grabbed me.

“You okay? Hurt? Anything?”

I let out a shaky breath, shaking my head. “I’m fine, I just want to leave now. Do you mind?”

“Of course not, let’s go.” He puts his arm around my shoulders to guide me but it stop him.

“Wait”

“What is it?” He looks concerned

“I haven’t peed yet, I’m dying to go” He shakes his head and aughts at me. “Go. I’ll wait here”

I mutter a quick “thanks” and i rush to the bathroom. Once I close the door, I lean my back against it for a second, pulling myself together before sitting on the toilet, while I eye, I let out a few tears, but I stop myself and wi my tears away before finishing up and going out into the hallway again. Chris flashes me a gentle smile. “C’mon, let’s get out of here” he holds his hand out which I take gladly.

Before we start walking, I lightly pul him to face me, I put my had on his reddening cheek. “It’s fine, doesn’t hurt that bad” He reassures me as though he knows what I’m thinking. “I just can’t believe he punched you, I’m so sorry.”

“Hey, it’s not your fault, okay? Let’s go, you can stay at my place tonight”

We walk back to the marquee, I spot my sister talking to my mother. “I should let her know I’m leaving”

“alright, I’ll come with you.”

We make our way over to my sister, i interrupt her conversation politely. “Hey Emma, Chris and I are gonna go.”

“Go? Why?”

I stay quiet for a second, unsure of whether to tell the truth. “Just tell her, ma.” Chris mumbles from beside me

“Tell me what?”

I sigh before speaking. “Em, James followed me to the bathroom an-” I’m cut off by my, now raging sister.

“Stop. Don’t say another word. Why can’t you ever be happy for me?”

“I’m always happy for you Emma. That’s not the point”

“No, the point is that, you can’t stand to see that I’m better off than you so you try to ruin my fucking wedding!”

I’m stunned. She doesn’t even believe her own sister. “Em, he punched Chris, look at his fa-”

“Don’t. Don’t fucking speak. Not to me, not to my husband, ever again. Get out of my life, and stay the fuck out. Got it?”

I don’t even try to defend myself at this point, knowing that she wont even let me finish my sentence, let alone believe me. “Okay, fine. But before I get out of your life I want to say one thing.”

“What!?” She snaps

I keep my tone calm “You’re not better off than me, I have a good life. A good job, amazing friends, though the family department could use some work” I spare a glance to my mother, who has always sided with my sister through ur entire lives “and I have Chris” His head turns to me quickly, surprised that I’ve included hm as his own reason. “He has always been there for me when I need him, he is the only family I need. I don’t need you, I don’t rely on you. Quite frankly, Emma, I haven’t seen you as family for a very long time. Goodbye, Mrs Blake.”

I don’t even give my sister time to retort, nor my mother. I turn on my heel, taking Chris’ hand again and walking away. Out of the marquee and towards my car. Once ere in the car, Chris finally speaks up.

“I’m so proud of you, y/n.” Those words make my heart swell.

“You are?”

“Yeah! You finally stood up to Emma, you’ve wanted to do that since you were a little girl, right?”

“Yeah, I guess that’s true… But maybe I should’ve have told her about James…”

“Yes you should have. No matter what kind of person she is, she deserves to know that kind of think about her husband. Now it’s on her to do the right thing”

I nod and start the car. “Are you sure you don’t mind if I stay over tonight?

“Of course I don’t mind, anything for you ma”

༄

I drive us back to Chris’ house. His brothers, Matt and Nick, must be in bed due to the lack of lights on in the house. we go into the living room and I plop myself down on the couch with a dramatic sigh.

Chris sits on the coffee table infront of me, he lifts up my foot and takes my shoe off for me, then the other, he puts my heels neatly on the floor at the end of the couch. He then moves to sit next to me, I lift my feet onto the couch to be under me, my knees bent and pointing in his direction, Chris puts his hand on my thigh.

“How you feeling?”

“I’m okay, a little shaken but not too bad. I just can’t believe I finally said that to my sister after so long”

“I’m really proud of you, ma. Tonight was fun, until Emma’s husband got handsy”

I smile at the memories of tonight. “Yeah, it was fun”

“I enjoyed being your fake boyfriend”

“oh yeah?”

“mhm, maybe a little too much” He smiles. I know that smile. It causes nerves and butterflies to dance in my stomach.

Before I can react, he’s leaning in closer. I don’t even process what’s happening until his lips meet mine…

To be continued…

[mattsturnioloscasket]

“it’s okay” (chris sturniolo)

in which: chris breaks up with his girlfriend and wont speak to anyone.

tw: crying hard ig idk, cursing, MY BB ALAHNA CHEATING. (she would never js for the story tho)

———————————————————————————————————

y/n sat at her kitchen table eating strawberries. it was 11 PM and she was just now eating her so called “dinner”. it’s not ideal, but it’s at least something. suddenly, y/n gets a call from nick. y/n and the triplets had been friends since grade school. but there was no doubt that chris and y/n were always much closer. they shared most of the same interests and hung out with the same kind of people. y/n had thought nicks call was weird due to the fact that the triplets normally film on tuesdays.

y/n picks up anyways putting it on speaker. she grabs a strawberry from her bowl, popping it in her mouth.

“y/n?” nick calls, a clear tone of fright in his voice.

she sets down her strawberry stem, wiping her mouth with the sleeve of chris’s fresh love hoodie that she was wearing.

“nick? everything okay?”

“no, no it’s not. uhm chris called matt up crying a couple days and matt had to go pick him up from alahnas.”

“a couple days ago?! why didn’t you tell me? is he okay?” y/n asks, a tone of seriousness in her voice.

“no! or, we don’t think so. he hasn’t left his room, y/n. not even to come eat or film. alahna hasn’t talked to us either.” nick says. slight bickering between him and his brother matt were heard after for a few moments.

“y/n you gotta come over he’s not coming out of his room!” matt yells, loud enough so that y/n could hear. nick was pulling the phone farther away from matt so that she wouldn’t be able to hear. he really didn’t want her to leave her house at this time of night.

“matt she’s not gonna leave her hous-“

“i-im on my way” y/n hangs the phone up, abandoning her strawberries and slipping on her slippers. she grabs her keys from her counter, giving her cat a quick kiss on the head before running out the door to her car.

———————————————————————

y/n pounds on the triplets door, her keys rattling in her hands as she does so. she really hoped chris was okay. he was always there for her and showed up whenever she needed him. matt opens the door, an annoyed look on his face.

“jesus women! any louder?” y/n rolls her eyes, walking in and slipping off her slippers. she waves at nick in the living room and runs upstairs to chris.

y/n makes it to his door, knocking her knuckles against it.

no answer.

y/n opens the door, her heart breaking at chris’s state. covered in a blanket, sitting up on his bed. he looked as if he hadn’t slept nor eaten in days, he didn’t smell the best, and his room was just horrible.

y/n walks toward him slowly, taking a seat on his bed next to him.

y/n looks at chris as he dosent look back. he just looks down at his fidgeting fingers.

it not like he didn’t know it was her. he knew. he always knows. her vanilla scent, and coconut shampoo that smelled divine.

y/n places her hand on his to stop his fidgeting. he slowly looks up at her, making eye contact with her.

“it’s over, alahna and i, we’re over.” chris mumbles.

y/n felt her heart break for her best friend. he really did love alahna.

y/n sighs, pulling him into a hug. chris freezes, ultimately melting into it. his head is on her chest, his arms wrapped around her waist. y/n reaches down, holding him. he begins to sob, holding her still.

“it’s okay.”

chris sobs louder, pulling her closer if possible. y/n reaches down, running a hand through his brown locks. his sobs were like a stab to the heart.

“it’s.. n-not. s-she cheated on me.” chris says between loud gasps and sobs.

y/n bites her lip, trying not to tear up. she didn’t wanna make his situation worse.

“it’s o-kay.” y/n whispers, her voice cracking mid sentence from holding in her sobs.

chris shakes his head, continuing to sob.

“its all my fa-fault.” chris sobs, burying his face deeper into her chest. he holds onto her tightly, feeling as if he were to let her go, he’d never get her back.

“it’s okay.” y/n whispers, letting a quiet sob leave her lips.

“oh god i’m so sorry.” chris sits up from her chest, pulling her into a tight hug. he nuzzles his face in her shoulder, his painful sobs slightly muffled. he felt bad he made her cry, that’s wasn’t his intent. he just needed to talk to someone.

y/n hugs him back tighter, shaking her head.

“fuck them okay. fuck whoever made you like this.” y/n whispers in his ear, hugging him tighter.

chris sobs shaking his head.

“chris, chris” y/n whispers, pulling his head away from her neck. she holds his face in her hands, making eye contact with him.

god another stab to the heart.

chris looks at y/n tears and sobs still falling and coming out.

“look. you are worth so much. you never give yourself the credit you deserve.” y/n wipes some tears falling down chris’s face continuing to talk.

“i mean oh my fuck!, your chris sturniolo.” y/n giggles, still wiping his tears. chris slightly giggles to, his sobs dialing down.

“don’t waste your life crying over nobodies. nobody deserves your tears.” chris’s sobs had stopped but tears were still falling down his face.

chris ultimately nods, sniffling.

“you got it chris? fuck every body else. what matters is that you know this breakupwasn’t your fault”

chris nods. “it wasn’t my fault” he whispers.

y/n nods, smiling.

chris smiles back, pulling her into another hug.

“thank you.” he mumbles into his sweatshirt that she was wearing.

y/n nods, hugging him back.

“i love you, princess.” y/n’s heart dropped to her stomach as she formed butterflies.

PRINCESS??!!

————————————

me after ghosting you guys for 2 weeks cs i got scared of getting viral:

[understandableparadox]

Bottom of the barrel isekai review

did i say I was going to read something horrible for you? turns out it was horrible for me.

behold a fucking pre-amble. I think the idea of loving and being loved is a concept ambiguous enough for it to be idolized by almost anyone because the ways to love are so varied and different. unconditional, unrequited, toxic, wholesome, forbidden, destined, love has more modifiers then fucking charizard and oops we gotta update that sentence because someone on book tik tok has invented a new type of love known as Squimy love. what does this mean for your children? more at 11.

regardless we yearn for a type of romance or if you are aromantic a form of intimacy in the form of the platonic. in some cases we can form such ties with people we don't see, people that Do not know that you exist.

in worse cases, sometimes the people who don't know we exist want to foster that relationship further for their own benefit. Parasocial love.

im sure you heard it from whatever drama youtuber you have decided to use to funnel useless bits of rage bait into your ears but its a tale as old as creepy guys. streamer is a little to eager to play into the fantasy of the viewers, that they love them, that they thing You, that's right, You dear viewer are special...Then they use that to groom or take advantage of a kid and they don't go to jail and someone writes a long expose piece on them and you want them to get hit by a truck but god rarely allows such lovely Closure...

anyways that defeintly has nothing to do with the work we are unraveling today, right? right???

oh.

oh no....

god, just kill me... ok the premise is simple, the internet has been made by a reincarnated rando who has decided that anything in regards to adventuring and fighting is just not in the cards for him so he has decided to just be a streamer. The only streamer in the world...Well more of a podcaster, given his streams are soley voice. but lets not label spikes being driven into my head.

but hey, thats a intresting concept, the idea that someone has created the true information highway across a world that is fucking Eras to early for it, theres a lot of things that one can explo-

kill me kill me kill me kill me kill me kill me kill me, please, im begging, im pleading, im a fucking deer on the side on the road stareing at you with blank uncomprehending eyes, my comprehension of Big Block Of Metal screaming down the road is null, dont let up on the gas and turn me into a grease smear so I may obtain something resembling an iota of peace of mind

NOT EVERY FUCKING CHARECTER NEEDS TO BE THE STRONGEST, THEY DONT NEED TO HAVE THE MILLION MANA MULTIPLIER, ITS OK TO BE SOMEWHAT WEAK, DID LUFFY POP OUT OF THE BARREL SCREAMING GUM GUM GIGA COCK AND ONE SHOTTING EVERY POOR PRIVATEER AND BUCANNEER THAT SO DARED TO GIVE HIM ANYTHING OTHER THEM WARM PRAISE AND DELIGHTIED WELCOME?! NO, BECAUSE WE ARE ALLOWED TO ENJOY THE FACT THERE ARE STAKES, THAT NOT EVERY SITUATION IS ONE IN WHICH WE ARE IN SOLE COMMAND OF! THAT GIVES IT SPICE.

anyways they wont talk about this for ten additional chapters and then again for the arc finally so i'm going to ignore it and move on.

they also go to a school that accommodates commoners and nobals, but its also the first school that actully does this, which is really intresting as its a mixing of classes and allowing "commoner" students acess to higher education and training for magic for a war with the demon king, meaning is this truly for public betterment or is this a method of ensureing nobel students arent drafted into war due to magic potential by haveing a healthy supply of seemingly more expenda- oh? your bored? you want me to jinkle something in your face? oh i messed up that sentance? You Meant to say jiggle? ok cool

reaching the end of the comic we come to its inevitable Gimmick because one cannot be Fucked to try to make just one gimmick work. thats right, the streamer has developed a collection of accidental parasocial relationships with various well endowed women across the nation, each in astoundingly have posistions of power or in some way highly skilled.

Each woman dispite not knowing who the streamer is, never seeing his face are thusly so infatuated by the mere sound of his voice and the kind words he mutters that they have their brain matter utterly rewired, becomeing true devouts for their favorite streamer...

Rinse and repeat for 20 plus chapters and you get Shitty Ecchi Slop delivered out to be consumed en masse because men cannot hope to penetrate the core of male lonliness without true introspection which in turn is stymied by a hunered or so other dude bros who loathe the word and offer a far easier view in which to dye the world. thus they seak idea of being coveted by someone in mangas in increaseingly more convluted power fantasies...

turning down the notches this manga is funny in the fact that it pulls me back and fourth with wild abandon between utter and complete slop and genuinly funny bits and abnormally normal opinions for the genra.

"Is the underlying story, barring any other concept, good?" 

there really isnt a story, its just streamer talking and women going batshit insane.

"on a sliding scale of min to max, how much is the author using this to explore fetish" 

medium. the story has an obsession with the idea of yandere but it rarely goes into the idea of a stalker. the women are respectfull of his boundries barring one but that one is called the odd one out. aside from that, alot of scenes are just an ecuse to draw anime tits.

"How many story crutches does the author use to explore the story" 

it dosent need crutches because it has little to no intrest in telling a coherent story, it talks about what it wants and drops the rest.

 "Is the author attempting to use the story as a way to explain why he is not weird."

streamers can solve all of socitial ills as long as the women who they create parasocial relationships in are in posistions of high political power. .

Omi & I have been going through some things.... So we decided to keep drawing Charizard characters based on their parent hybrid species... First to make little differences like Poison hybrids having slight resistances to poison or Dragon hybrids being slightly more sensitive to the cold etc... but then we got silly (making them all characters for no good reason at all).

Omi has a master list on her page (currently incomplete) also I only typed out the stories for the characters I made personally (tho we came up with some of the stories together).

More under the cut!

Mary Wolfram- Char + Aggron- A single mother with an Aron son. Shes stoic but mostly trains to protect her son. Shes a bit of a loner but wont push people away from her & will even help other Chars train. Still she prefers to be alone or with her son.

Diego Just (DJ)- + Exploud- A laid back artsy kinda guy, he can get very excitable when dance music is involved (you can basically adjust his energy by changing the music he's listening to). Raised by his Exploud mother (after his Char father died) has given him a love for music & loud aesthetics. He likes to decorate his too-tense bestie (his other bestie. He also considers his mom his bestie) Jay-A with jewelry & flowers... it's tolerated.

Jackson Alexander (Jay-A)- + Blastoise- A very well behaved kinda guy. His Blastoise dad is a military man and has raised him to be such. Hes besties with DJ & has slowly allowed DJ to help him relax a little... but only when theyre at the Valley where his dad cant see. (His dad is mostly the way he is learning about Zippos incident where when Zippo was young he was almost killed by a Squirtle. Hes very anxious now that his own son is a Char, he very much wishes Jackson was a Squirtle but since hes not he'll hammer in survival instincts and military grade defensiveness & toughness. Hes gotta stop being so sensitive.)

Ethan Kohn- + G. Slowbro- A rather timid kinda guy who was dating a Clefable at some point. Unfortunately his boyfriend got into some trouble with some unsavory types & he got roughed up because of it. After that his boyfriend disappeared. Who knows what happened to him (Ethans dear brother Ivan happened to him... by ripping his arm off as payback for Ethans pain & told him to gtfo of Ethans life.)

Gwen Feng- +Dragonair(Dragonite)- As per usual the Dragonite line is questionable. Gwen left her Goodra husband for her bestie(& secret Dragonair lover). Her eldest daughter Molly has some issues with this... her youngest Lulu has no thoughts as her head is completely empty.

Katla Long (shiny)- +Dragalge- Katla is a feisty, adventurous Charizard who mostly battles to look cool. Her passion is more for fashion and her charisma is so high she turned her wannabe-criminal Grimmsnarl boyfriend to completely drop his plans to become a criminal mastermind. She doesnt know this & it probably wont cause any problems. Unrelated but having a Dragalge lineage & an adventurous nature... she sure wants to swim. She cannot cuz if her tail gets wet she'll die. Tragedy.

Elizabeth Reina- +Nidoking(Queen)- Due to her father being a Nido she had some fertility issues by the time she fully evolved(seriously why cant Nidoqueen breed...). This was fine with her, she adopted like a reason person. She and Katla have been besties since they were little girls.

Liza & Kat as kids --v

Jethro North (shiny)- + Dragapult- Due to his weird & questionable lineage & him being a shiny... Jethro is a little strange as is all Dragapult!Chars. They have the ability to see spirits which not only freaks living Pokes out but even the ghosts are a little freaked out by them. Jethros grandson Jacob is not freaked out by him at all which makes him a great caretaker for any little Dragapult!Char whos family did not keep them.

Tori Stills- +Bastiodon- (tbd)

Lars Laman- +Swampert- (tbd)

Haley Staal- +Rampardos- Shes very athletic and loves to skate. She worked very hard to evolve asap so she can do more fun tricks while skating. The edges of her wings have been scuffed up from some of her more exciting tricks. Her determined nature makes it impossible for to give up on anything... which includes even talking to people. Even a weirdo like Yuki.

Yuki- +Abomasnow- Was raised by his Abomasnow father on a cold mountain which stunted the strength of his wings & his overall health & left him secluded from other Chars until his father died. He hasnt been to the valley much but the warmth keeps him there now but he has trouble socializing.... Staal is one of the few people who continues to try to talk to him.

Cera Rovere- +Rhyperior- A based her character in my mind as: Mihoshi from Tenchi Muyo but BUFF (I.E. the ideal woman). Shes a sweet natured doofus who doesnt actually battle. Her body is from all the rock lifting & mountain climbing. She could fly... but then she might miss some cool rocks! She quite like rocks. (WHO DOESNT? I may or may not been watching a grown man cut into agates & giggle when they had cool patterns inside while making her.)

Malek Dera- +Kingdra- Seemingly an aloof dancer/singer. He's one of the few Chars who doesnt really enjoy returning to the valley... but only because he has to leave his Kingdra twin back at home. When he's with his brother (& their little sister) he's actually a lot more playful and fun. When their father is getting ready to head to the valley his siblings also try to help him hide because they also dont like being without him.

His tail actually doesnt curl naturally, but being around his siblings caused a habit. Hes learned the hard way not to curl it so tightly.

Syla Brand- +Gyarados- A strict and serious woman, she's part of the militia & is absolutely 0 fun. She's one of the few Chars not worth trying to get to lighten up (Haley might bed to differ but she has another project atm.) She's a highly skilled fighter.

Florence Kane- +Sceptile- Basically the complete opposite of Syla. She's very excitable and fun loving. She practices martial arts & dance but doesnt actually fight anyone at any point she does not care enough to even argue with people. She will simply walk away.

Gil Florentine- +Kommo-o- Due to his mothers ability 'Soundproof' he was born partially deaf. He loves music & chime sounds but can only really hear it well if its very loud which also damages his hearing. Hes pretty quiet himself and although hes not always aware of his surroundings hes never anxious about anything probably due to his higher than normal defenses.

Alma Braeburn- +Appletun- A very shy girl who longs to be a baker like her mum. She doesnt have any close family that are Chars so she can be a bit closed off at the Valley but when shes cooking and passing out food she's very chipper. Fryda is probably her closest friend due to her need to FEED.

James LaFleur- +Turtonator- Have you watched LOST? You gettit. ehehe. (personality-wise... not all the crazy family stuff)

Sara & Rory(shiny) Lito- +Aurorus- Sara is a gentle and quiet lady & Rory is an excitable little girl. Rory used to get a little self conscious about her shiny coloring, but her older sister started wearing lighter shades similar to her coloring to make her feel less different. It worked very well! Rory might not evolve further because she doesnt want to be completely different from her sister.

Kari & Jada Morosite- +Slowking (+ their full-Char father Domenic)- Due to the Slowpoke tail trade Kari & Jada were targeted, Jada had been kidnapped & killed having her tail chopped off. Domenic hired his criminal brother Ivan to find his daughter & Ivan has taken it upon himself to avenge his fallen little sister. Kari used to be a very friendly little girl but after her sisters death she's become anxious and clingy to her father, her father enables that because he doesnt like his surviving daughter being far from him anyways.

Maya Lamina- +Kangaskhan- She takes after her Kangaskhan mother being very nurturing and sweet. She carries around her plushie everywhere and would only ever start throwing hands if someone were to take it from her. That is her baby. Her mother doesnt like being apart from her and tasks her lover with keeping an eye on her 100% of the time & they do as theyre told.

Murphy Black- +Scrafty- Murphy is actually a good boy but his Scrafty sister is a bad influence. When along they cause mischief together but the minute another Char is around he'll get really embarrassed by his sisters shenanigans and try very hard to look like a proper lad. His sister teases him relentlessly over it.

Rika Bell- +Seviper- She has a love for spicy food and fashion (on other people. Not her. She has no desire to wear the silly fashion she likes to see on others... shes very casual with her own fashion. Some might say shes a hypocrite, those people coincidentally have singed eyebrows.). Tho she can be a bit judgy she's otherwise a fun person to be around. She loves a vibrant color palate.

(there are more Chars but their page aint finished & I have limited space on this post...)

Abari Saraf- +Dragapult- Zippos long lost grandmother. Being a ghost!Char her creepy nature as a child left her ostracized by other kids, but that all changed when Cyrus (Zippos grandpa) made it basically his mission to make sure she had a friend. As they got older Cyrus also trained her since she was too shy to train with anyone else. She got very powerful and really really enjoyed that power. She also really enjoyed Cyrus and became possessive of him, hating when he spent time with his friends especially Graham who she found very irritating due to her teasing. She takes Cyrus showing affection for others as a personal slight. Her and Cyrus eventually tried to start a family but after being pregnant once she realized how much she hated the down time and hated Cyrus feeling the need to take care of her... and she also hated sharing her husband with their son. After an intense fight with Cyrus that left him almost dead (he lost an eye & was permanently scarred by the electric attacks her taught her), she was fully marked (having her face scarred, horns charred, wing tatted black) and banished from the Valley (like Ivan). No one has seen or heard from her since.

Cyrus & Zippo

---

Baby Zippo & Kreetan have some good old FULLY RESTRAINED summer fun. (Kreetan is more sensitive about Zippos tail than Zippo is... mostly because he almost killed him that one time.) The floaty will keep him SO safe.

-----

UNRELATED TO CHARS-

Constance/Condor is a villainous Perrserker. By day they go about life as a photographer by the name Constance who is very upbeat and kind. She writes in her journal every night, when she reads back some pages, which she always remembers to do, she remembers her identity as Condor. A serial killer who collects trophys of their victims in a secret room in their house. Before he goes to sleep he writes in their journal about who they are and what to remember for the next night out, then uses Amnesia to forget whatever crimes theyve committed & the pages of their journal where theyve been detailed just in case some psychic sleuth comes sniffing around.

Condor/Constance has effectively turned themselves into two completely different people which Constance is completely unaware of.

Condors calling card is using feathers to hint at their next victim.... its a whole thing.

--------

COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO THAT.

(they are not to scale btw... I drew Altin as an extra)

Prince Rissan is the next in line to be king of (handwave) Kingdom. He's been raised for this very purpose by both his parents and the Kings Hand... however he just hates the idea of it. he doesnt want to live a life restricted as a king. he wants to go out and compete in fashion contests and enjoy life. His younger siblings are far more ambitious in their life and want to rule but thats not how things are done.

Though Rissan seems very kingly and put together hes actually far more sensitive and lighthearted. Its a side to himself he only ever really shows Altin who he considers to be far more of a father than his actual father (not that his father is a bad guy but he acts more like a friend than a guardian). Altin is the only one in the world who is allowed to call him Riri.

Altin is a shiny Arbok who was sold to the king by his clan who was entirely put off (& a bit superstitious) about his green & gold scales as a child. Altin is somewhat resentful of this, but still tattooed himself with clans style to pay them homage (I used the RSE game Arbok sprite for their type of marks). That said he was treated well by the King & his family & is completely loyal to them, especially Rissan who hes been transferred to as the King has gotten older and his starting to divest himself as ruler. Altin IS actually very stoic and composed and is who Rissan models his persona off of to look professional.

Rissans younger brother is especially jealous of him & wants more than anything to be king, while his sister would also like to rule, she'd probably have to kill her brothers to do so and she's not THAT unhinged.... well she might kill her Glimmora brother but Rissan has been pretty good to her, if a little distant, and she kinda knows that if their brother wasnt in the way and she asked, Rissan would probably fake his death and leave the kingdom to her anyways.

The King & Queen actually have a pretty good marriage & had a good time ruling. She looks a little devious but is pretty chill & she loves her husband even if she does wish he wasnt so... Dionysussy.... She looks forward to seeing her eldest son rule due to his more regal demeanor and delicate touch with problems but hes also prone to disappearing which is a whole OTHER problem.

The King has been a good ruler and his jovial nature and general power has left him in the good graces of other kingdoms but has made things a little awkward with his family. Rissan is distant & doesnt like being his next in line and his youngest find him embarrassing despite his overall success. But he's never one to let anything get him down. Hes got a comfy home, good wine, a lovely wife, and 3 healthy kids PLUS a shiny Arbok whos been a longtime companion (& is practically like another son. Bonus gold son! HELL YEAH). He is currently dying but hell he's lived a great life & his beloved Kingdom is in good hands.

Now that we see of liu kang ending and all of the garbage trainwreck of the new mk game

I bet y'all thinking

"Hmmm. Maybe shang tsung's ending in mk11 wasn't actually that bad and maybe he was *gasp* actually right all along about some things?!"

I mean this isn't just me as a shang tsimp.

This is sadly kinda true. I'd rather take my chances with big shangus. Then a pompus(and pooly and backhanded written) fire god liu kang. (Which in itself is sad. Because he never wanted that. Forcing him into a role making him miserable. Completely bastardizing his character. All for what?! Not my liu kang nrs. Not my liu kang.)

Anyways. Back to shang.

Liu kang vs shang is a klassic rivalry. But its as only as good as you actually write them on equal footing. But the have never truly done that. Liu kang has always had plot armor saving him and shang tsung has the unfortunate boxing in of "bad guy i beat up. Twirly mustache" which is horrible because that's not what he actually is. (Worse more when tagawa-sama never wanted that character he played,nor any villain he plays to be that way. Its always some nuance to his characters he portrays. And he said in an interview. He grew up with wimpy asian bad guys. He never wanted to ever see that again. So if he IS gonna be a buy guy. He is gonna be THE BAD GUY. Plus he hated seeing so many stereotypes but he had to trudge thru to be able to help make a better representation and positive impact. Tho nowadays he plays sweethearts,like himself mostly. Great actor,AMAZING man. Really cool. But for them to continue to make shang a "wimp" or to be "beat up by the "good" guys" is awful and a backhanded slap to the character as a whole even outside of the amazing cary hiroyuki tagawas portrayal.)

Again liu kang should be able to barely BARELY win against shang. Even if granted god powers. Shang is a stronk ass mofo. Bad,mean,nasty,in a fight. He wasn't champion formerly for nothing. He wasn't mk tournament master for nothing. He wasn't granted a seat under shao kahns heelboot for nothing. Granted that wasn't much of a choice but survival. But thats for another post. Like shang tsung is a BEAST! Not a heavy hitter. Not a beast in a way thats a tank. But a cunning,ruthless,and calculator. An opportunist fighter. He's cold in a fight. Like gives you chills. The serpentine gaze ready to strike. You gotta be quick...or you'll die. You gonna be careful and level headed otherwise he'll take full advantage of that opening and your soul? Is definitely his.

Look shang dont fucking play. (There is nuance and context depending on the situation but for the most part depends on who he's fighting and what the story is doing but overall he is not to be underestimated at all!)

Shang tsung Wasn't an og big bad for nothing!!!!!

Shao kahn was only a bigger bad and problems later. Then it became.

Better the devil you know then someone worse. Then we start to see.

Well fuck shang tsung actually is the only thing preventing shit from getting worse!

So yeah....you kill him....

Quan chi gets more power. Shao kahn gets free range. Onaga....welp. you're screwed. Dont even get started on shinnok! Oof. All the other bads?! Yeah they are gonna get WORSE AND MORE TOUGH AND BE MORE OF A PROBLEM. and honestly it would make things harder for everyone.

Yeah so think about it.

Take shang out ,you fuck up a whole ecosystem.

He only feeds on souls and of what he needs. Dont prevoke the man he wont steal your soul and go on a killing spree sucking souls for spite.

For the most part shang is best left tf alone. So as long as he has plenty in his soul well. He'll be fine. But the man is paranoid,traumatized due to shao kahn,many other things perhaps from his past. Oof cue my backstory for the death of his mother and his attachment issues and fear of decay,meaningless deaths,etc

But for the most part if you are respectful to shang. He'll be respectful back. Be genuine,be honest,and it will get you far. Dont be easy gotten either. Make it a challenge. Again this man likes a reasonable chase. Likes intelligence(not necessarily book smarts but people smarts,emotional intelligence) he values these things.

I could go on about this characters brain soup. I could add n talk about so much character analysis for shang. Unf 💖

But I'll leave it simple

Nrs fucked up a perfectly good rivalry. A potentially amazing story arch. And two amazing characters.

In short....i bet that shang tsung ending sounds really good about now right?

💗 Relationships / lovers

💚 Friends / family members

It's your turn to talk about the polycule, my friend.

—yes! I love these losers! Happy to answer!

“Hehe..all of them are so wonderful..s-so where should I-i even start? W-well me and Sonia have interests in common..s-so it makes her easier to talk to than I-i orionally thought..I-im glad she doesnt look at me weierdly for enjoying all the gore in the films we watch! S-she..is so kind and patient to me..I-im so thankful..”

“I-i..I kinda find Gundham difficult to talk to still because of h-his speeching style..but I-i think im slowly learning!! D-despite that..he can really be a nice person despite his act..hehe I-i wont lie his fears of horror movies i-is amusing, but ah! P-please dont tell him I said that! I-I hope we can get closer in this relationship..and heal him if he ever needs it!”

“I-I feel like a owe a lot to H-hajime for being so patient with me..I-I was so worried I was wierding him out! But he sticks with me all the same and even helps me when Im getting scared. I-I know he gets scared of my medical equipment though..s-so I try to be careful when I help him with injuries, rare as they may be. I-Im really happy with him!”

“Kazuichi..r-reminds me of myself in a way I-I cant explain..m-maybe because of how easily nervous we can get. I-i hope he isnt upset for comparing us..th-though I dont think he will be. Hehe, he rambles sometimes, but he is fun to talk to. Though..I-i do worry about all the mechanic work he does due to all the equipment he uses..h-he always comes to me if he gets hurt though which makes me feel useful and m-makes me happy!”

—---------------------------

“F-family….? Th-they..they are all just a bunch of bullies..I don’t know where they are now and I dont care….AH! S-Sorry if thats a disappointing answer!”

“Heh..I cant believe I got to have any partner..let alone four. Though..I definitely can’t complain as they all are..really important to me. Sonia seems to think that I match some sort of legendary hero in Noveselic..I-im not sure about that, but I mean..Ill try to do my best to reach that expectation? Ethier way, she is easy to talk to and really kind to boot. I hope to teach her more about Japan and learn about her country more in return.”

“Gundham certainly did take awhile to understand, but now that I do I wouldnt trade that bond we have now for anything. Im pretty glad I reached above being a mere human at least..Proud to assist him in making his soul more atrocious as his partner..and all those other things he said we were. It..feels nice to be one of his..’souls chosen companion.’”

“Mikan is..ah I got to be honest..I worry about her a lot. She is so kind and has told me enough about her that..I dont ever want her to be hurt ever again. I really hope that me and the others can continue to make her happy as she really does deserve it. Probably the kindest of all of us..even if her love for horror was somewhat shocking.”

“What is there to say about Kazuichi? He is my soul brother for a reason..and thinking back about our relationship makes me laugh as I did joke about going on a date once or twice. Guess I was right! He is a good guy and I’m always happy to help if he ever needs anything..though I gotta ask..how in the world is he strong enough to pick me up? Im..Im I really that light..? Whatever not important. I really do care about him..a lot.”

—-------------------------------

“..I wonder..i wonder what my parents are doing now if I can be honest..I can barely even remember what they look like. From..what I heard..Hopes Peak lied to them and told me I was dead after the Kamakura Project. Maybe I should be mad..but Im actually thankful for that one thing as we never got along. There expectations were so high for me and they always disrespected my identity and who I was..The closest family I got is Izuru..as..ugh this is annoying to admit, but I do see him as a brother. While we sometimes have conflicts..like he is persistent about keeping our hair long which is super annoying..but Im thankful to have them. Nice to have a family member..”

[plagueybirb]

Been thinking a lot about TOTK lately (because reasons), so here's MY take on the magic pebbles for whoever wants to hear it. Fair warning, this does get a little ramble-y but I gotta explain a couple things for it to make sense and I'm not just going crazy with the red string and corkboard here.

Okay, so. Whenever there's time travel shenanigans, there's a split in the timeline. So far, this has happened TWICE. First being the one most known and discussed from what I've seen: the OOT timeline split.

The second, that I haven't actually seen talked about before is in Skyward Sword. Spoilers for a like, 10 year old game. Go play it if you can, it's one of my favorites!

Anyway, the Skyward Sword timeline split. The timeline where Link and Zelda/Hylia stay in the present and thus the timeline we all know and love is created. BUUUT, then there's the past, where Demise was defeated not as a grumpy scaly jelly bean from a wish from the Triforce, but a good old fashioned smackdown in his true form. Where technically Link never needs to go on a journey to save Zelda and literally the entire plot of the game happens.

We never find out exactly what happened to that past timeline left behind. And yes, I know Old Impa waited about a million years or whatever but here's the thing. Whenever Zelda, and by proxy, Hylia is directly involved in time travel shenanigans, it creates a sort of stable time loop. Zelda will always sleep in the amber. Zelda will always fall and end up in Zonai era Hyrule.

So. Because of this, I think that simultaneously there exists a timeline completely parallel to the main one, but it's the past where Demise was defeated in his true form. The past that Link and Zelda/Hylia left behind. Here's where the magic pebbles come in.

They're only called the Zonai secret stones because the Zonai were the ones who found and named them. Like naming a dinosaur after yourself. And as people are wont to do in the Zelda universe, they build a society around it. But what ARE the magic jelly beans you ask?

They're pieces of Demise's body.

Yeah. You heard me correctly. You know how Hylia has Goddess Plumes? It's like that. In theory, if you eat a piece of a being like a goddess or even a primordial entity, it's gonna mess you up big time.

The fight with Demise was definitely a lot more brutal and bloody than the game shows, it's not hard for me to imagine pieces of solidified magical energy just firing off into the abyss whenever Link let lightning strike his sword and stabbed the hell out of the guy. We don't know how powerful Demise truly is, only that he was so powerful that it took a Goddess LEAVING her divinity and becoming a mortal temporarily to keep him sealed away, and even then Demise kept breaking out and needed to be sealed again. Probably more times than when Link had to.

Maybe the secret stones weren't always shaped like crooked tears (OR. Y'know. Possibly drops of blood), maybe when the Zonai found them in the Depths (because I refuse to believe the Zonai weren't originally from there, which I'll talk about another day), and perhaps put molded them to be shaped like something familiar. Perhaps a certain amber or dusk relic?

Mortals, even ones incarnated time and time again due to an ancient curse, aren't meant to handle pieces of a primordial entity so powerful it took a whole Goddess and a million year long plan to finally take him down. Of course swallowing one would change you.

There's a theoretically infinite number of magical pieces of the ancient deities and higher powers, they just haven't been found yet.

Demise would see a dragon as something incredibly powerful. It would make sense as to why his blood would turn you into one while robbing you of your memories. And really, it takes some DAMN COURAGE to look a Goddess who governs time in the eye and say basically, "Fuck you, I'm going to come back SPECIFICALLY to mess up your good time because I hate you"

After all, GANONDORF is the one associated with boars. Demise was never given the same association except by Ganondorf being trapped as the reincarnation of his hatred time and time again.

And hey. Perhaps the Goddess Plumes turn one into a massive owl sort of creature. No one's ever eaten one to confirm that we know of.

Who knows. Perhaps there's a third deity or entity out there whose pieces of themself turns people into boars when eaten. You never know. Perhaps one that even. Bargains. With mortals. :)

Anyway, that's my take on the Zonai secret stones. I'd love to hear what other people think!

[davekat-sucks]

Homestucks gotta step back and realize that their fave webcomic franchise is extremely niche and obscure internet media that is not making huge influences on society. They are an ant compared to the likes of undertale, minecraft, superwholock, and weed. So many people act like it's doing the lgbt community a huge favor with it's gay ships and June

Rosemary was huge for being such a prominent lesbian ship within the webcomic sphere, which is a very small part of the internet. Then they ignore how the ball got fumbled hard in how they lost their personalities and later became a cucking drama in beyond canon. Then there are the June stans saying the comic is saved by a character going trans even though none of the larger overarching conflicts are being resolved. But as shown in the epilogues, meat roxy basically became a clone of Dave upon going trans. It's like why do we even need another Dave clone when he's literally right there? Oh yeah it's cause Davekat made him a nonentity that just mopes and does nothing, and a lotta fans projected onto dave as their trans awakening since he's so "cool" and had a terrible childhood. Like idk roxy should have an original personality even after becoming trans. And big picture, she and Dave never really seemed that close in comic so it doesnt make sense why she would be so influenced by him

If homestuck cant handle lgbt stuff well even if the ghostwriters are lgbt, then why even give them the trust to write June well in the first place? They are bad writers period that cant even pace a good story or make characters that grow meaningfully for people to connect to. Surprise surprise if the characters regress or the story does shitty plot twists, readers wont like their time getting wasted

Homestuck could have been part of the media to influence pop culture, but it was taken over by Undertale. Its spotlight for crashing Newgrounds too has been taken over by Friday Night Funkin as well. Rosemary being one of the earliest modern lesbian ships to be introduced and accepted early on before it was stated that LGBT was constitutional... was overshadowed by Steven Universe due to being a more children's show compared to a webcomic on the Internet that is targeted for a much larger audience. And if people want earlier works before Homestuck for lesbian themes, they can look towards to Revolutionary Girl Utena, as anime was on the rise and more easily accessible to people thanks to fansubs and streaming websites. And after Rosemary was canon, they moved onto to the next thing of wanting Davekat to be real and now wishing June Egbert was a thing. They only labels to just be there with no rhyme or reason behind them before throwing away for the next new popular thing. The people treat the labels on characters or series like toys. I even say when it comes to Western writers that make LGBT and try to have LGBT as a main selling point too in their works, they put more of the label as main priority than actually tell a story or have its characters be characters with flaws. That's why other similar LGBT themes in stuff like comics turned out to be shit while stuff like manga or anime that is more about yaoi/yuri than actual LGBT, unintentionally turns to be better in comparison.

me ranting on the marvin triolgy i unironically love the marvin trilogy so much?? in trousers makes no sense. esp the end song/ begginning depends on what like version ur listening too. i heard this theory that in trousers is actually marvin being hypnotised by mendle in therapy and it would make sense!! like it'd explain the inaccuracies between it and falsettos. Like Trina having two kids, as mentioned in your lips and me, 'the oldest drink wine the baby's wailing', while in falsettos Jason is the only child known. And in you gotta die sometime when whizzer says i dont smoke but in whizzer going down marvin says 'he takes me in his arms and he lights *another* cigarette.' Then i love how they re used im breaking down from in trousers and using it in the 2016 revival of it. imo it fits better in falsettos because you go more in depth about both trina and whizzer charaters. In trousers musicals actually is so bloody good??? like every song is great, my favourite song is marvin's giddy seizures. It highlights marvin's suicidal attempts and how it doesn't get noticed unless he acts out., then the whole thing just sounds so good. i wish the lesbians got more screen time though because theyre so radicial. every scene they're in they just light the stage up. I love how all the charaters are wrote. I would like to know if in high school ladies at 5 o'clock/ the r--e of mrs goldurg. are we meant to take that literally? im assuming we are because marvin says something along the lines of for my 14th birthday i was hoping you could show me the wonders of the bed. i think we would be, and if we are what the fuck? like i know marvin is an incredibly abusive person before about time but jesus christ. i didnt expect that. now i do adore that marvin's abusive behaviours are acknowledged and reprimanded unlike another musical that attempts to do something alike to falsettos, rent, where all characters have abusive behaviours. i wont dwell on the failures of rent too much because this isn't about rent. I have saw that 2004 college production amd i find it hilarious that in the thrill of first love that marvin drops whizzer, i hope that was scripted because that seems like such a Marvin behaviour. at the same time it would also be funny if it wasnt. either way i like it. anyway in marvin at the physiatrist, in the og off brodway cast, mendle says its queer mr marvin which is so funny to me. on the topic of the og off brodway cast, i find it fun how chip zien played both marvin and mendle in in trousers and march of the falsettos/falsettoland. marvin in in trousers and mendle in MotF/falsettoland respectably. I genuinely adore everything about falsettos. the openeing number is such a good opening song, i dont think ive heard a better one. Then my father's a homo always makes me laugh and i just love how jason doesn't hate his father for being gay, its how his homosexuality tore the family apart. Then this had better come to a stop is such agood number. i love how in the og of brodway run of it the late again sounds like yapping. then the way that trina and whizzer sort of bond over marvin's abusive tendencies is heartbreaking. A tight knit family reprise is a great song again. then the chess game, marvin my guy you know you agreed to let whizzer win cmon now. i never wanted to love you is heartbreaking. and the games i play makes me violently sob. march of the falsettos made no sense to me until i realised that it was a song to remind you that acts of affection are NOT masculine at all. i honestly dont get why act one didnt end with i never wanted to love you, but father to son is heartwarming compared to the previous songs. i love the second act so much. marvin has done everything to change himself yet the love of his life is stripped away from him. it is like a reminder that due to his past actions he can never like fully be a good person. he changed. he did im not putting that down, but his actions can always haunt him.

ok. i need to compare Astraeus (Lovestruck) to Blade (WIP - Shepherds of Haven) bc as i was trying to make them on Black Desert Mobile i noticed they r pretty similar in... looks

both black haired / eyed with a sort of cropped hairstyle (one is 5'9 and the other is 6'3" tho)

both swordsmen

both given an east Asian... design. I mean Astraeus downright uses a katana as his main weapon and his theme is cherry flowers (which...i still don't know why as he s a Greek mythological figure but *shrug* im used to it now), Blade less so I suppose, i mean his last name is apparently a Welsh name but its just... here and there you get the sense that's the main inspiration for his culture - food, words, style whatever - which i dont like, tbh, making the emotionless, brutal species Like That but I can head-canon around it all I like its the canon (for now) world-building

this i like :D 1 is from an app that shut down.. like 2 years ago and the other is from a WIP work, not all out yet

both have older brothers, though Astraeus surely suffered more in his hands, having served him for years if not decades and it ends with a death... We dont know what that particular thing gonna go with Blade but I think it wont be that brutal.

Both sort of leaders, Astraeus is to titan army (or whats left of it more like) and Blade to Shepherds militia.

THEIR RELATIONSHIP W THE MC: Astraeus pretty much starts in love with the MC, he's low-key a stalker (i mean high key he did kidnap her...) and they have this... connection. Immediately. With Blade... it's... so not that. It's a slow process. Just as strong but slow and steady against.. whatever the fuck was up with Astraeus at one point (and yall kno he s my #1)

Astraeus is very chaotic, the MC says at one point chaos 'thrives within him' (or around him) he's a titan god after all and Blade is.. once again. Not that. Astraeus wears his heart on his sleeve. That's my favorite thing about him actually, he's one of the closest examples I saw to the male femme fatale idea. He's seductive and emotional and acts according to his heart. Blade falls a bit dull against that because we just have…. too many of the emotionless warrior guys, though I gotta give its due, he does his category well - say.. compared to Adam from Wayhaven Chronicles (and there I do love Ava, I know they are the same person but listen almost no female character is Like That) and you can tell he starts caring for the mc - obviously, which makes him much more appealing then the rest of the so called macho guys.

Astraeus is a poet. Blade points out he likes reading poetry. Does he write? I don't know but its surely not a corner of his personality I feel

They also both like gardening, once again Astraeus is more passionate about it, growing a tree in a land where nothing grows (Tartarus) Blade mentioned it but it's not like.. his thing - so far

Overall this made me realize maybe we don't know Blade well, despite the countless asks n everything or that he needs a certain.. something. Not everyone has to be passionate and emotional of course but like uhm... He's a bit too perfect and bland, WHICH is maybe his flaw I mean other characters do call him boring and dour and again the story is far from over so we'll see!
