I'm sure this has been done before but Gravity Falls/Hunger Games AU? The 50th games/2nd Quarter Quell becomes even more dramatic because in one of the districts, the two male tributes are twins??

This year becomes one of the longest-running games in history; sparked in part by the Capitol's obsession with the twins, Stan and Ford, who have an argument early on and split ways. Stan becomes an expert in hiding and running, making and then breaking alliances as the other tributes inevitably try to use him to get to Ford. But why get to Ford?

Because Ford is excelling. The dangerous and odd mutations of the arena become his fascination and his strength. Probably also because during the pre-game process the Capitol got enamored with his six fingers and awkward attitude and view him as this weird little oddball underdog, and that infuriates especially the Careers. Stan is fighting for his life every day, and thinks Ford is doing the same--- but Ford has a mysterious, anonymous sponsor who sends him everything he needs, signing each note with not a name but a little triangle. The major upset comes when, of course, the last two tributes alive are Stan and Ford. The games end when Stan unceremoniously pushes Ford off a cliff and into the river below.

(Ford, of course, does not actually die. His sponsor was Bill, duh, who I picture as a Heavensbee-like figure, a gamemaker who is actually aligned with D13, more for the chaos than any sense of rebellion or morals. He takes Ford and deposits him in D13 to aid in the rebellion.)

Stan becomes the Haymitch-like drunken, lonely Victor who no one wants to interact with. His district, under his angry tutelage, goes through a period of losing. Then, the 74th games.

When they call Dipper's name, Mabel tries to volunteer. She can't, because she's a girl, but that doesn't stop her from trying so hard the Peacekeepers have to hold her down. So, she does the next best thing: when the girl's name is called, she volunteers again, pushing her way into the games despite Dipper's dismay.

They know Stan is their grunkle, but he's estranged and their first real interactions happen with him as their mentor. He assures them repeatedly they will turn on each other; Dipper and Mabel use the power of twins to win the Capitol's support as gamemakers dramatically drudge up reminders of what happened to the last set of twins. It's the "twins" angle rather than the original books' "star-crossed lovers" angle that earns the twins the right to win as a pair (can you imagine how Stan felt, knowing if he was just a little smarter he and Ford could've been spared, too?).

Eventually, D13's existence is revealed, Ford is shown to be alive, Stan goes through the reverse 7 stages of grief and probably also a lot of booze, etc. etc. They defeat the presidents (probably the Northwests, Pacifica would make a decent President's granddaughter), and end up taking down Bill too as his goal was, of course, to take dictatorial rule in the creation of the power vacuum.

if i had the money i would buy one of those historical homes that are out in the foothills (the ones from the 50s through 70s that are straight up frozen like a time capsule or there’s a tiny handful of them that are from the 1800s and then have a mix of that + 50s through 70s stuff) and fix it up without making it Modern TM.

Like there was this one place that was right across the road from where I used to live & it was in an aspen grove & it had this old vintage stone pool & you could see through the windows that the interior was all original 50s through 70s & the furniture too, like completely untouched, as if people had just gotten up and left one day and never come back. The whole place & pool was completely overgrown with weeds and grass & it needed fixing up and maintenance but I’m like. begging the owners to sell it bc they’re clearly not using it. (i actually tracked them down once via the guy who boards his cows there & they said they werent willing to sell it atm (not that i could afford it either but yk) because it had belonged to family so they wanted to keep it in the family for the time being but they werent sure about what to do with it and im like. that was a couple years ago & it’s Still completely unchanged. ooohhh you guys want to sell it to me one day sooooo badly)

Guys, idk about anyone else but I'm starting to suspect the reason why Zahard was angry at Arlene and his motivations as a character might be a bit more layered than simply having his proposal rejected...🤔 Almost like his choices might be based on his ideals and not simply love triangle drama and the greatest war in the history of the Tower, kickstarted by V and Arlene, might have tarnished his proudest accomplishment and goal.

Sometimes I go like “I’m fine” and then remember that one friend whom I loved dearly who did a complete 180, told me to fuck off and essentially split apart our entire friend group in 2022 simply because I was Russian and she was Ukrainian. We didn’t talk politics, didn’t discuss the news too much, nobody held any anti Ukrainian opinions. We showered her in nothing but sympathy and support. And yet somehow, it was all our fault. We were 15 and it was our fault. Because we were Russian, so how could it not be?

I’ve never been the same since

Minato Namikaze Birthday Poem:

Hello everyone, a few days ago was Minato Namikaze Birthday and in this post, we are making poem! An ode to his life if you will! Even though he was not the Hokage for long and did not appear as much in the show. He still played a crucial role in the events of the ninja world!

Thanks for reading and as always make sure to follow my blog for more and reblog this poem!

Challenge: If this post gets 25 reblogs, I would consider next month doing either Izuna Uchiha Poem or Obito/Tobi Poem(would hold a poll). - No, my own reblogs do not count!

Please and thank you!

With this in mind,

T.W/Tags - This poem deals with mature themes such as death, war, tragic birth, body/spiritual horror - you have been warned, read at your own discretion!

Not Long Lived:

A Young Child…

Falling in Love…

Normal things, in a flash…

Second Ninja War came fast.

The Child Solider.

Fought in a war and saw unimaganle horrors.

Though he lived,-

Thanks to all the master’s teachings that gives.

It would not be long before the third war comes along.

And worst of all,

He had to take his team of students to the international brawl.

Two of his students, never came back.

One did, depression and PTSD track…

In a world, where mental health and emotions were far from concern.

This period offers much to learn.

The countries looking for someone to blame…

The Thrid Hokage left without shame.

The next hokage and peace was of high stake game.

Minato, Fourth Hokage would reign.

He gotten married to his crush and love.

The world and the village were at rest from bottom to above

But the world had other plans…

Karma plans.

He was always late…

When it came to things that mattered.

His student presumed dead…

Attacked in a very mysterious matter.

Released the fox…

Unseal the locks.

Reek-ing of havoc…

Villagers set in a panic.

All due to grief and pain.

Minato went on attack and won the game.

The  assailant left…

The Fox was dealt in a deft.

Not in a way, anybody expects…

Sealing half within him…

The other in his son,

The Chosen one!

In the end of this battle.

He died, along with wife seeing their son in a stralle.

Made the third promised to look after their Sun.

In the end, the people mourn and sad days ahead traveled.

He was never on time for things that mattered.

But a new voice and fresh eyes would have saved them from the upcoming disasters!

Not long lived, Oh Fourth Commander.

Happy birthday Minato Namikaze, Fourth Hokage!

@dribs-and-drabbles putting in the tags that she is allergic to avocados and, and, . . . I need a moment with my best boys.

What I've learned over the years of sharing my experience with mental and physical illness/disabilities is that even when you feel like you're just complaining online, it could still help someone. To be honest, almost every time I've posted about anything disability-related over my life, I felt like I was complaining. But I still get comments and replies saying that I've helped people feel less alone. Even if you are complaining, it could still help someone else feel seen, and give them someone to relate to.

If you want to start advocating or sharing your story, but feel like you'd just be complaining, chances are, someone out there will appreciate it. Someone out there will see your rant, or your single line of text, or your photo - and they will feel seen.

no, dragon age 2 is not the best dragon age game. but it’s also not the worst. and most importantly, it is my favorite.

Wait how do you read fanfic if not on your phone??? Do you read from your computer? But what about the divine comfiness of the bed? 🥺

My best guess is that it never entered my routine cause I used to have to not so good phone, so reading AO3 on it would have been hell? So it never became a habit!

But do not worry about comfiness! I read my fics lying on the couch with a pillow behind my back, a blanket and the occasional hot bottle!

(Also I may or may not have the slightest bit of dyslexia that makes reading extra slow and straining so reading on my laptop is kinda easier and feels less overwhelming??)

...oh renpy makes it. REALLY easy to make menu choices that straight up Do Not Show Up if you tell it that choice needs a stat requirement to even be possible
