How about your top 5 smiling friends characters ranked? Your ranked lists are so cool. You are galaxy brained!!
Tumblr media
HOOOO BOY THIS IS GONNA BE A DOOZY!!!!!!
Esp since I feel like the cast is still so small that I can barely make a Top Five with Smiling Friends but I'll try my bestest!
(Oh, and I am sososo super duper flattered and amazed that you find my rankings and thoughts to be galaxy brained)
1. Allan Red
Tumblr media
A Allan Adventure was such a FUCKING GODTIER EPISODE
His voice, his speech patterns and his overall cadence and tone of his voice is so unique and funny I love listening to it!
He looks like a hot dog and I find that to be hilarious character design
His dynamic with the other characters is fascinating and entertaining af!
The scene with him and Finn Wolfhard's character in the pilot is one of my most favorite scenes from it!
2. Pim Pimling
Tumblr media
He's my favorite out of the duo! (I love Charlie but if I had to pick it's Pim)
HES FUCKING ADORABLE AND SMOL AND I WANNA HUG HIM!!!!!!
THE ACCENT!!!!!! THE WAY HE TALKS!!!!! HIS SINGING!!!!!! HIS "HE-LLO" !!!!!!!!!
He lowkey reminds of my (late) Grandma!
Season One has been Pim's Best Season so Far!
3. Mr. Boss
Tumblr media
An Absolute Unhinged Loon Who is Super Entertaining and Hilarious to Watch
Is a Cryptid of Sorts Disguised as a Human and I'm Not Gonna Think Otherwise
AGAIN HIS VOICE, THE WAY HE TALKS IS PEAK COMEDY !!!!!!!!!!
Also Love How Dark and Insidious This Fucker Gets
But it's Always Oddly Sweet that He Sees His Employees as "His Boy" aka He Sees Himself as Their Father (cuz he's Weird Like That)!
4. DJ Spit
Tumblr media
HIS ACCENT AND CHICANO DIALECT ARE LITERALLY SO GODTIER (I learned about Chicano from DJ Spit and now HC Pyro to have a Chicano Dialect when unmasked)
HONESTLY LOVED HIM IN A ALLAN ADVENTURE HOLY SHIT !!!!!!!!!
He was the Best Part of the Frowning Friends Episode
This Guy is Pure 2020s Era SoundCloud Rap and I really like that touch
I also just really like his design for whatever reason
5. Gwimbly
Tumblr media
I FUCKING LOVE THIS LIL FREAKAZOID'S DESIGN SO MUCH!!!!!!! DUNNO WHAT THE HELL HE IS BUT HES PERFECT!!!!!!!!
His animation style and the PS2-Esque Visuals He Has are Simply Godtier
His dialogue and catchphrase are FUCKING ICONIC !!!!!!!! OOH OOH OOH !!!!!!!!
Honestly I Felt so Bad for Him since his Situation is Pretty Much Just Valve and Nintendo Combined!
I Swear that the Wife of the Villain of the Game Used to Be Gwimbly's Girlfriend and THATS Why She Freaked Out the Way She Did....
-------------------------------------------------------
Thank you oh so very much for sending this in my sweet friend! It was really hard and a lot of work to get through but it was fun, I hope you have fun reading it over!

hoooo boy, nightmare on elm street 5 is a DOOZY. the sets and scene transitions and special effects are all fun and wild, even when they dont hit the mark you can see the amount of love and effort that went into them, and theyre truly inventive. and a depth of narrative was never what the movies brought to the table, so there's no real way for the writing to go down with every film or for them to degrade all that much-- while at the same time, they avoid having a dearth of value like friday the 13th. it's a series that maintains pretty well from entry to entry, in a way that more plot-heavy horror often trips on.
but at the same time, this film brings with it the most ANNOYING side character in the entirety of the franchise(as ive seen so far, anyway), along with messaging around birth and pregnancy that just left me floundering. the scene where she literally talks to her baby currently growing inside her and then wakes up and goes "i cant have an abortion, i met him! he thinks and dreams and i was in there with him, he's a part of me!" the idea that a fetus that small has a heartbeat and dreams...
on their own they arent Evil Ideas or whatever, but theyre so often used as anti-abortion rhetoric that it sours the film. mind you, i dont have a problem with her keeping the baby. just... the movie feels Fucking Weird about it.
i dont even dislike the idea of a fetus's "dreams" being the vector that freddy krueger uses to enter the world! i think that's kind of interesting, and it poses some unique challanges for the characters. i just...... im not big on pregnancy horror to begin with, and somethin about this movie just did Not hit right. i wish i'd watched it somewhere other than in the car, i mightve watched it more closely and been able to come up with a more salient analysis on what felt so Weird about it, but here we are.
Definitely A Movie.

Tumblr media
You walk down the hall, turning right and into the bedroom after an exhausting day. Your boyfriend lays across the room in bed, tired and half naked.
The cool air wafts around you, up the thin t-shirt you're adorning to brush over your nipples. They're hard, not that you notice. Goosebumps roll over the supple skin of your thighs and you hurry to the bed.
"Mhhh- you're finally in bed. That stupid skincare routine you have takes forever." Katsuki mumbles, adjusting himself to face you.
The blankets are warming the lower half of your body, basic black comforter trapping heat inside.
"Hey! I'll have you know, it only takes ten minutes and I'm going to look thirty when I'm FIFTY! " You bite out.
He snorts, eyes rolling before tugging you a little closer.
"You know what that means right?" His tone makes you squint. An arm drapes itself over your waste, rubbing little circles into your back.
"What?" You deadpan.
Mistake number one.
His hand snakes it's way under your Tshirt to the bare skin awaiting. The room is still cold, with a flirty breeze.
A tongue swipes over plush, pink, lips and he places a quick peck on your own. The blankets begin to rustle when he moves, hips now flush against your own.
"It means I'm going to want to fuck your pretty mouth for the rest of my damn life, darlin." Katsuki smirks, proud of himself.
You scoff.
"Oh puh-lease! You'd fuck my mouth if it was as pleasurable as a hollow piece of styrofoam."
You can hardly contain your giggles when the blonde rolls his eyes and frowns.
"Oh shut the fuck up, y/n. I would not!"
The both of you continue with playful banter for the next ten minutes before sleepiness takes over.
*:・゚✧゚・:**:・゚✧゚・:*
The next day goes with ease. Katsuki goes to work after wishing you farewell with a kiss to the forehead.
Not even an hour later you're cleaning and preparing for your own job. It's currently 7:30am and your eyelids still beg to shut. The smell of chemicals fills the air in your living room and you bid yourself a job well done.
Hot, unforgiving water rolls over your body as you pop the cap on body wash. It works your sore muscles up and down while you scrub yourself.
You quickly begin applying neutral makeup, as if only to enhance your natural features. Concealer, light foundation, a nude lip topped with gloss, and mascara.
The time reads 8:45AM and your eyes widen.
"Ope-"
You run out the door, bagel and tea in hand as you get in the car. The engine whirrs to life and you fiddle with the radio station before settling on a playlist.
When you get to work, the office is cold and stale. A stack of papers waits on your desk and you sigh before sitting on the leather chair.
Work goes smoothly but time drags on, taunting you with the invitation of your bed when you get home.
After seven grueling hours of slaving away for corporate, you finally stumble into the house.
The lock clicks behind you and your bags drop to the floor as soon as you get inside. Shoes discarded off to the side of the door as you throw what you prepped for dinner in a pan.
Preparing dinner ahead of time has been amazing for reducing food waste and costs. It doesn't take long, just throwing chicken and some sides in Ziploc bags and thawing it in the fridge. But it saves you on days like these, with aching feet and a sore head.
Katsuki gets home a little late, as you're sitting on the couch post shower in pajamas. The TV murmurs in the background while you flip through pages of a book.
Your eyes meet his own ruby orbs, lashes fluttering. The poor thing looks exhausted. Content, yes, but tired.
"Hey baby" You greet, padding across the vinyl floor to give him a peck on the cheek. Your fingers rub over his chest and down his tummy.
"'M kinda dirty right now lovey, I know you'l prolly already showered." He sighs into a kiss. His hand rests on your waist, thumb pressing into the soft skin exposed from lifting.
And it's true, there's dirt and grime smudged on his face and arms. His uniform looks battered.
He quickly kicks off his shoes and places them to the side with your own.
"Mmm.. Let me start the shower for you." You murmur, pulling away.
His hand drops from your waist and his arms stretch above his head.
You quickly turn on the hot water, waiting for him to follow behind you and begin undressing. Grabbing a lavender scented shower melt and tossing it into the bottom.
Lifting your torso to stand completely and turn around, you're met with a half naked Bakugou with his back to you.
He tosses everything into the laundry bin and begins pulling off his socks. Then go his pants, dropping to the tiled floor.
Bakugou's forearm rests on the bathroom counter, other hand reaching to snatch his bottoms from around his ankles.
Your eyes drop to his ass, admiring it as he stands. His ass is plush, round and firm. All the deadlifts and hip thrusts he does in the gym pay off tremendously.
He turns around and you hear a laugh when your eyes snap back up to his grinning face.
"Like what you see, dumbass?" Katsuki smirks, closing the distance between you too.
"Oh you know I damn well do." Your hands reach around his abdomen to grab at his firm bottom.
Lavender fills the room and you sigh, watching as he rolls his eyes.
You press a quick kiss to his chest, pat his butt and separate. He strolls toward the running water, pulling the door open and entering the steaming glass shower.
Leaving the bathroom to give him some space, you begin heating up dinner for him. While that circles through the microwave, you begin flicking through all the streaming services to find something he'll enjoy.
There's a new viking-esque show that seems interesting and to his liking. You had your time to indulge in Rick & Morty while he worked, so it's only fair.
A beep travels through your ears and after pressing the pause button, you stretch your limbs out. The Tshirt and shorts your in are more than comfortable, light and relaxing.
Quickly, you pull the simmering food from the microwave. Coconut chicken, rice, and asparagus were often a fan favorite of his. The meal came to be after many searches through Pinterest foodie boards, when you'd decided to experiment one night.
Thin fingers wrap around the freezer handle and you grab a coconut popsicle as a quick treat.
You place it on the black living room table and plop onto the couch, popsicle in hand.
Katsuki trudges in wearing grey sweats, sitting beside you and snatching his plate off of the table to eat. He presses a kiss to the side of your face, thanking you.
A man on the television screams, stomping towards the other very angry man. The two begin arguing, speaking of trades.
Cool air drifts over your legs and you shiver, grabbing the throw blanket set off to the other side of the couch. You scoot closer on the soft grey couch to your boyfriend, whom is gobbling food down like a mad man.
"What's this?" He asks, looking at the television.
"Mmm I thought you might like it. There's vikings." Your pink tongue laps at the popsicle, eyes trained on the screen.
"Hell yeah, how was work today?" Katsuki asks, shoving the last asparagus spear in his mouth.
"T'was okay as always. I'm a little tired of paperwork but otherwise nothing eventful came to be. You?" Your tongue slides up the side of the cream-coloured treat to slurp up excess coconut milk.
Bakugou stands, sauntering over to the kitchen, where he places his plate in the dishwasher on instinct. He gulps down the rest of his water.
You feel the couch dip and his skin pressed against your side. A thick forearm wraps around your middle as you lean into his touch. Your eyes are still trained on the screen, licking at the popsicle without thought.
"Same, honestly. My muscles are a bit sore though." He says.
The screen now shows a bunch of women and men, chanting and lifting glasses in what appears to be a bar.
"I'll have to give you a massage tonight then." You state.
Bakugou's eyes are trained on your face, watching you lap at the popsicle in your mouth, sucking. It disappears in your mouth, white drops of flavoring and coconut milk pooling at the corners of your lips.
He feels the room begin to heat up, cock beginning to twitch in his pants. Oh, boy. You're going to be the death of him.
You turn towards him, looking up at him with big doe eyes. You pull the popsicle out of your mouth and give him a confused look. A bead of coconut milk drips from the corner of your mouth.
Katsuki feels hot. Hot and heavy. His mind is going blank, all he can think about is your innocent eyes staring into him while he watches you lick at your lips.
His mouth presses to yours with vigor, just enough pressure to startle you. His tongue swipes over the corner of your mouth to take in the liquid before he pushes it between your lips.
You kiss back softly, submitting to his movements, coconut popsicle damn near forgotten. His hand reaches to your thigh, where he digs his fingers into the flesh there.
A coat of damp sweat begins to blanket over his skin. Your mouth tastes so good, so sweet. Lips soft and pliant against his own.
He pulls back -"god"- before he dives into your mouth again. This time he pulls you into his lap, you whimper, and his cock twitches underneath his sweats.
You break away, "'suki m popsicle is melting" you mutter out. Lips now plump from being nibbled and toyed with. His fingers are pressing into your ass, having slid under your loose shorts.
Katsuki looks and sure enough, there's cream or whatever the hell is in that popsicle dripping down your fingers. There's not much of it left, though.
"Finish the rest really quick." He says, taking the stick out of your hand and pushing it into your mouth. You swallow down the rest, hand still wet and sticky with sugar and coconut milk.
He tosses the stick to the side and you can feel how hard he is pressing in between your folds. If you roll your hips, it'll push against your clit and just feel so-
Katsuki grabs your hand, thumb on your palm and the rest of his fingers wrap around your wrist. He takes your fingers into his mouth and sucks.
Oh.
Oh fuck.
It's hotter than it should be. Ruby eyes stare into yours, tongue lapping the last bits of white liquid off of of your fingers.
"You've been such a good girl." He murmurs.
The room is suddenly ten degrees hotter, your breath quickening.
His tongue is in your mouth in a flash, hands now roaming up and down your body as your own take purchase on his chest. He's so thick and firm and hot up and down.
Katsuki always smells of salted caramel and vanilla cookies. He always feels so good. You begin grinding your pussy down on his clothed cock. A moan bubbles in your throat, threatening to escape between hot and sticky kisses.
Your thumb brushes over his nipple and his cock jumps when you push down harder. Your clit feels like electricity just shot through it and traveled through your body.
Katsuki can hardly think.
Really. You're beginning to soak through your flimsy shorts and letting out muffled little whimpers when he grips a little harder in certain areas. He takes time to lick his way up and down your neck, crooning to the side to bite and suck.
That really begins to do it.
Your hips get frantic, you no longer care how loud you are. He can feel how wet you are through his sweats and his own precum is slick and dampening them.
You push down harder and jerk back.
He lets out a moan. It's rough and strained and his hands begin to guide you and keep your soaked pussy pressed against him the entire time.
"Oh fuck- god, god, god- haaahh-" You whimper.
"You're so fucking slick and needy for me princess." He murmurs between kisses.
His thick hand slides up your torso to your throat, squeezing at the sides. Your head begins to loll to the side, hair messy and lips damn near bruising now.
"Daddy I need- I need-" You start, gripping hard on his shoulders pushing harder in search of release.
His cock is so hard it fucking hurts now. A bead of precum just slid down his dick and he's watching you fall apart without his hand even near your heat.
You feel as if someone's got you strung up by a single thread, hanging in the air waiting to be released to fall into the abyss. And fuck, he's so pretty.
The back of your head stings a little and you realize with excitement he just tugged your hair at the roots. You're so fucking high on this and he knows it, too.
"Needy slut."
A hand comes down with a crash onto your right ass cheek, other keeping your hips steady. It quickly goes back to your throat where you go back to feeling heavy and like you're walking on fucking clouds.
Your hips kick forwards and you let out this wet, filthy whine. You hear him muttering expletives while your folds soak his sweatpants in slick.
The friction just feels so good.
And Katsuki knows you're starting to get close when your fingers begin to shake.
"Fuck, princess. You're so fucking good. So good. Such a needy slut for me. All mine." He half whispers half moans, hand reaching for the back of your head.
Lips crash onto yours, teeth clash, and he bites your lower lip. The sting from your hair being pulled makes you whine and grip him harder.
You're trying so hard to keep it in, not to cum. You know you shouldn't without permission.
And just like that, he makes you fall apart.
"Be a good girl and cum for me baby." He mutters, left hand still on your hips while the other travels to push into your mouth.
You coat his fingers in spit and suck as hard as you can before nodding frantically.
It hits you like a fucking wave, your head drops back, and he catches it while your thighs quake and quiver. Your entire body pulls into itself and drool begins to froth at the corner of your lips.
Sweat beads down your forehead and back, your thighs are sticky and hot and uncomfortable and you whine through it.
"Shhh.. good girl, you're doing so good." He kisses up and down your neck and face while your eyes are rolling back.
The shaking stops, and , he's whispering that he'll be right back, laying you on your chest on the couch. The sofa is all too comfortable but your pussy won't stop convulsing and clenching and everything just feels so limp and fuzzy.
"I'm back princess." Katsuki whispers, and begins helping you sit up on your knees.
The collar wraps around your throat. It's black and a small chain dangles. At the end, "Katsuki" is engraved into a small, metal oval that hangs off a ring. The back clicks together, with a little heart that requires a key to unlock it.
You whine and he chuckles.
His cock strains against his grey sweats, now dark in the center from the both of you being filthy and all over eachother.
You tilt your head back to look at him, lips glossy and eyes spacy. He gives you a quick kiss before laying you on your chest on the couch.
His fingers grip the inside of your shorts and he yanks them down, pulling them off your body and tossing them to the side.
"Fuck- babe- god you look so wet." He groans, palming his erection.
Your ass is straight up in the air, wiggling side to side as he chuckles and slaps your ass. Your fists are balled up near your head, turned to the side while you stare into space and wait.
His fingers push between your folds and coat themselves with your juices. You're so sensitive. It feels so good and he's hardly even touched you.
"Yes, fuck, you're soaking." He whispers, thrusting two fingers inside of you. He begins pumping them in and out, muttering praises and you feel his lips press against the curve of your ass.
"Daddy you're being mean!" You whimper out, pushing your hips back, frustrated.
"Don't be a needy fucking whore, princess." He grits out, placing a harsh slap against your already red ass cheek.
"Ohh- oh fuck- m sorry m sorry!" You moan, spit leaking onto the couch. Your eyes and ass both sting at the contact. Surely it's going to hurt to sit tomorrow.
"M gonna fuck these pretty thighs, gonna make a fucking mess of you." He says, and you hear him pump his cock a few times.
Katsuki's mind is fuzzy, just as high on you as you are on him. His fingers continue gathering slick, wet juices all over them before he pulls them out.
He rubs your clit in little circles for aoment to watch you clench down, overstimulated. Your hips rut forward and he watches your tongue sweep over your lips.
You're so pretty like this, he thinks, and probably says outloud. He can't help it. Your ass is a little raw from the spanking, pussy leaking down your thighs and sticking to everything. The collar has always looked so good on you, always suiting you so well. He loves watching you.
After throwing his pants to God only knows where, he pushes his cock between your thighs and lets out a slutty moan. He licks one of his fingers and then shoves them into your mouth. Chest pressed over your back as he slips between your folds.
You moan, sucking on them, cleaning them off for him like a good girl.
"Shit." He moans, cock slipping in and out of your folds as he fucks your thighs.
You're squirming under him, you can feel it pushing against your clit and sliding between your thighs over and over. It feels so good, being wanted by him. You want his thick throbbing dick to fill you to the brim.
"God, you always feel so- so fucking good."
You push your hips back and forth and he starts feeling electricity ignite across his skin like tiny fireworks.
Little "oh"s tumble from your lips while he tries to keep sanity in his line of sight. It's so hard, with your pussy coating him in such a warm, wet substance. You always taste so sweet on his tongue and he longs for that high again.
He grips your thighs, palms heating up a little, and opens them wider.
Katsuki pulls his cock from between your supple skin and palms at your ass, diving his face into you.
His tongue laps at your clit and slips inbetween the crevice of your lips. Sucking and gathering everything he can.
You moan louder, thighs spreading and closing, pussy clenching.
"Don't stop, don't stop, don't stop-" You force out, feeling that familiar pool of heat in your belly.
He pulls away, flips you over on your back before you can complain and starts shoving his cock inside you.
It's so thick. It always is. He's slow, gentle about it. You know how much restraint he's using by his furrowed brows and rolled back eyes.
His head lolls forward, forehead touching your own. He licks his lips one, two, three times. Soft, bruised lips meet your own before you hear him.
"Such a good girl- fuck- always so good for me. One more baby, you can do it I promise." Katsuki moans out, gently rolling his hips to adjust you.
Your hands find themselves on his back, nails dragging down. His hands adjust your legs, calves thrown over his shoulders now. His chest is to yours, now fully flush and to the hilt inside you.
Your minds go blank, falling into the madness of pleasure that wraps around the both of your bodies. Lips find their way all over your face, peppering you in pecks.
And then he moves.
Head of his cock pressing against your gspot. It's too much, he's too warm. He's too good. It hurts. It feels amazing. You're fucking losing your mind.
Your hands slam to the couch, gripping the coushion and the stupid throw blanket. You feel the need to rip everything and throw it.
He's pumping into you, moaning. His voice is so pretty.
Katsuki is so goddamn pretty. He's so fucking pretty. All muscle and smooth skin and and-
Fuck.
"Oh God, take it, take it, takeittakeittakeit. Goddamn whore, princess, such a good girl." He spits, no longer thinking. His voice pitch is getting higher.
Thrusts becoming more frantic, you take this as your chance to be bad. Even if it does feel better than anything you've ever felt.
You reach, wrapping your hand around his throat, squeezing gently. His hips stutter in response.
"My turn." You moan out.
Somehow, you manage to get the upper hand. He puts up a mild struggle, but you get your legs around his middle, flipping the both of you over as you start bouncing on his cock.
He's searching for something to grab onto now. One hand wraps around his throat, rhythmically clutching and releasing grasp. Just enought o keep him fucked out and off in a daze.
"Oh- hhmnnn fuck baby-"
You giggle a little inside, his thick member pushing against every sweet spot you have. Loud squelching, filthy noises fill the room with clapping.
One of your hands runs up his abs and to his chest. Nimble fingers reach for a nipple and begins rubbing in circles and pulling lightly.
He gasps, eyes flying shut as his head hits the grey fabric. Hips bucking up into yours. You notice his hands shaking.
"You're such a naughty boy for me. You like being choked huh" You murmur in his ear, slowing down into a nice gentle grind.
Katsuki nods frantically, spitting something jumbled that sounds like "I'll be good". He's chewing on his bottom lip, making light whimper and desperate gasps while you continue to toy with his nipples.
"Princess- fucking brat- m gonna cum." He groans out.
You speed up, bouncing and pinching harder. Shoving a thumb into his mouth for him to lick and suck on is his undoing.
White thick cum spills inside you and fills you to the tippy top as he moans out curse words and praises. It spills out of you, forming a frothy ring at the base of his cock and you whine and hump your cunt on him.
"Oh fuck- yes- fill me daddy. Fuck, oh fuck-"
You're on your back. It happens before you can blink.
His cock is still throbbing, cum making everything louder. It leaks from your pussy to your asshole as he starts pounding into you.
A firm hand comes down onto your ass, slap ringing through the living room.
"You fucking whore." He grits, free hand going to rub rough circles on your clit. He speeds up, quickening his pace, angling his hips up.
The collar is jingling with every bounce of your tits. Every thrust he makes brings a grasp or moan from your lips.
The world stops momentarily.
Your pussy wraps around him so tightly it almost hurts. Your body is wrapped into a cocoon of blank space. Almost as if you are a blank piece of paper.
When you come back to planet earth, he's already pulled out of you. Peppering light kisses up and down your body.
You feel his arms up under you and suddenly you're limp and off the couch.
"Shhh, it's okay baby."
You mumble something and hear him chuckle. Your back is slowly placed onto the sheets of your bed.
The bed dips and you look over, starting to come back to your senses. Bakugou is in a new pair of sweats, laying directly beside you and watching you.
His hand smooths over your your tummy and you roll, curling into his chest. He presses a kiss on top of your head.
"Miss you-" you murmur, pressing your face into his chest further, arm wrapped around his waist.
"I'm right here, dumbass. Do you want to take a bath with me or just sleep?" He whispers against the top of your head, fingers rubbing circles into your back.
"Neither. Cuddles."
You feel his chest vibrate as he laughs.
"Okay baby. You know how much I love you, right? You know I don't think of you as a whore or a slut. You're so pretty. I love you." He murmurs, gently working your muscles.
"Mhmmm! I love you too bunny." You mumble, pressing your fingers into him to dig knots out aswell.
Your hand travels to his ass cheek, where you give it a firm squeeze.
"God I love your butt! It's so nice and soft and firm."
His fingers dig into you a little harder, but he relaxes into your touch regardless.
"Oh I know you do princess, I know you do. Are you doing okay? Would you like some water?"
You shake your head no but thank him for his thoughtfulness. Instead, you roll over and grab the tv remote. He's already turned the TV in the other room off, thank fuck.
"Baby, you need to go pee. You're going to get a UTI otherwise." He says, brow raised.
You huff but do as told. When you come back, there's water beside the bed regardless and you notice a bottle of lotion on his nightstand.
You flop back onto the bed beside him, having found a large shirt of his to get comfortable in.
"Wanna watch anime?" You bring the doe eyes out again, pouting. Your hair sticks up in all kinds of ways that will be hell to get unknotted in the morning.
He has tomorrow off, so you know he'll help in the shower. Part of you giggles at the red and blue splotches all over him from kisses and sex.
"Of fucking course, soft shit or do you wanna watch horror?" He asks, turning towards the screen.
You pick horror, for whatever reason, knowing you'll get to make him watch SpongeBob with you afterwards. The screen comes to life and you curl into his side.
Through the night, you take turns massaging eachother up and down. Talking about clothing you want to buy, house decor, among other things.
You make him watch cartoons after the horror anime. Everything about him screams happiness at the end of the night. Relaxed face, soft features and even breathing.

I'm in a mood for angst.
Could you send please do some HC of the safehouse crew reaction to finding out that their children betrayed and was working with Perseus's team?
Pretty please? (Hope I'm not bothering ya)
*deep inhale* HOOOO BOY, this is gonna be a doozy 😅😅
Reader pronouns: Gender neutral Warnings: Angst, betrayal, mentions of blood, disownment and radicalization.
Context: 
[X] = Safehouse Crew character of your choosing.
You have always taken the Red Scare with a grain of salt, and hated how the mainstream media portrayed the Russians. “Here we go again with the “SoVi3Ts bAd” kinda thing.” In your eyes, it was never about who’s good or bad. It was a conflict of interest based heavily on clashing ideologies. Despite this disdain, only one person was a true hero in your eyes. Your parent, [X].
When you finds out just how CIA treated Bell (the brainwashing), you couldn’t believe it. To make it even worse, it was [X] who initiated the idea. Your heart fell right down to your stomach.
You didn’t know what to believe anymore. The supposed “good guys” would subject someone to this cruelty, yet preach kindness? Imagine what the US government has really been doing behind closed doors.
“The flag might be different, but the methods are the same.“
When nobody is looking, you reveal to Perseus’ agents that the CIA is on to them. Throughout every mission, you leaked intel to Robert Aldrich and his spy ring. Little did you know about Perseus’ true ambitions...
Throughout every mission it would turn out that Perseus always was one move ahead. But why? The crew does suspect that the heightened activity within Aldrich’s spy ring had something to do with it. However, no one had any idea you contributed to it.
Fast forward to post-Cuba fiasco (Park is saved here). The entire Safehouse Crew (including YOU) found out about Perseus’ plan to wipe out half of Europe. You felt like throwing up. None of Perseus’ agents ever informed you about this. Not Aldrich, not Volkov, not Stitch, not even Perseus himself. You were nothing but a little pawn. Nothing more.
Post-Solovetsky Ending:
Your heart was racing. How could you tell your parent, the one you used to look up to, as well as his/her team, that you were an accomplice? “Mom/Dad? I am so sorry...” Tears rolled down your cheeks.
Russell Adler:
“I never expected this from you. Had things turned out differently, those tubs of blood would be on your hands.”
At first, he contemplated disowning you. Then he put two and two together. 
Given what he did to Bell, even after they told the truth, he can’t fully blame you. Even if he wants to.
He’s devastated at just how Perseus had radicalized you.
If the pursuit of Perseus wasn’t personal, it sure is now.
It’s not over yet. Not by a long way.
You join in on this pursuit. 
Frank Woods:
“You chose to help out that fucking genocidal maniac?“
After finally cooling off, he listens to your side of the story.
Blames himself for not even considering the possibility of his kid betraying him like this.
“If you were to lie to us about where he’d be at, I wouldn’t know what to do.“
(You turning against Perseus may or may not have gotten Menendez’ attention...)
Alex Mason:
“Come on, Dad. After what happened to you in that Gulag, how can you justify this? At least Perseus doesn’t forcibly turn people against their own!“
He gets a bit taken back by this, given his experience in Vorkuta, especially his encounter with Viktor Reznov.
As such, he does see where you are coming from. 
In the end, he is beyond relieved that you fought by his side.
Lawrence Sims:
“How fucking could you?!“
Can’t believe that his own kid would side with the enemy.
Luckily, the government does not know the truth. The secret is 100% safe with him.
At the end of the day, he’s happy you didn’t get to the ‘point of no return’.
At the moment of truth, you were his hero.
Will do anything in his power to help de-radicalize you. 
He wants to be your hero again, and believes you can redeem yourself.
Helen Park:
“Bloody hell.“
Would never believe that her own child, of all people, would be radicalized by Perseus and his men. That made it hit extra hard.
“Sometimes, we have to get our hands dirty to keep the rest of the world clean.“
She’s grateful that you could see through Perseus’ wool over your eyes and stood by her.
Explains how Mk-Ultra works, and why she and Adler had to subject Bell to it (see below).
Jason Hudson:
“It’s not that cut and dry, kid!“
Explains how interrogation processes work.
Brief you on Bell’s background, and that they were Perseus’ second-in-command. You realized they were fully complicit and culpable in the nuclear threat.
“I should have never doubted you, Dad.“ 
Eventually, he’s happy you’re on his side. 
He’ll never fully cut you off, but he’s still terrified for you, given your impressionable nature.
He knows sheltering you will only make things worse.
If you didn’t do the right thing, you best believe he would do ANYTHING to get you back home. Even if it involves striking deals with Menendez.

3 books you would recommend everyone to read: oooo tough question - I read a lot, but most of the books I read are kind of niche, or overly long, or too dark for some people... so I’m trying to think what 3 in particular would appeal to most audiences.Hm. Okay. I would have to say The Martian by Andy Weir - truly a fucking fun, all around good time, especially if you enjoyed the movie. You’ll laugh a lot. Then, I would say Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant - another very thrilling, but also extremely terrifying scifi adventure with killer mermaids and wlw that follows me everywhere. And... fuck, this one is a doozy, it’s a surreal scifi horror show, but Area X trilogy by Jeff Vandermeer. Hoooo boy are those books fucking phenomenal (the movie Annihilation was inspired by them). I also want to give special mentions to This is How you Lose the Time War and Gideon the Ninth, but since I finished them in the past month, I wanna sit on them more (and read gtn sequel) before mentioning them.
Already answered 21!
3 things you love cooking/baking: ummm okay I actually like making burgers (whether meat or vegan ones, actually preferably vegan cuz I get mildly stressed cooking meat), and COOKIES cuz I eat all the dough, and uhhhh eggs because they’re so fun to crack and watch cook (I take no joy from cooking usually, I do it just to eat not for enjoyment 🙄)

Interview Analysis
alright i’ve been sitting on this for FAR too long. let’s get s t a r t e d
Danny Homan: Yeah, so uh. The Calypso Twins have managed to create a cult called the Children of the Vault and in doing so they’ve kind of done something that people thought was impossible on Pandora. They unified the Bandit clans, y’know, You saw in Borderlands 2 the bandit clans were just a disparate group of maniacs who were mostly just killing each other if they weren’t being killed by you or by Hyperion. But the Calypso Twins have done the impossible and they’ve unified the bandits in pursuit of the Vault and they’ve kind of organized them and made them kind of like follow their every beck and call. It’s kind of a strange phenomenon that we’ve never really seen in the Borderlands universe and, uh, as you maybe saw with the video there’s a lot of new fun to be had with a cult of bandits. They don’t always kind of obey, right?
Tell us something we don’t know, right? Mostly just wanna talk about “they’ve unified the bandits in pursuit of the Vault”. Despite the fact we know there’s more than 1 Vault in bl3, he says ‘The’ Vault. I have talked about this before, but I’ll go over it quickly here. I think the Twins have knowledge about a Vault they really want- something called the “Great Vault”. I think it’s the red Vault we see in their stained glass portraits, the Vault we see on their black and white mural. I think they’ve basically formed a religion, not just around themselves, but this Vault as well. Probably by promising these bandits that the Vault will bring them back towards a more stable existence with a supply of food/money/guns. I imagine Tyreen has some bullshit excuse for not bringing them directly to the big boy, probably like ‘we need to harness the power of the other Vaults first before we can face that one’.
I personally thought that maybe the cult was formed after the twins had already opened the red Vault, but that wouldn’t make sense of them leading the cultists to it. Unless the Great Vault is not the red Vault we see in their art. Also possible... 
Moving on
Danny Homan: I mean, Handsome Jack is amazing, y’know, what can you say? And I think the answer is that you don’t try to mimic something that got past success, you try to create something different and new and just as a writer, the Calypso Twins are a hell of a lot of fun. I mean, you have this sibling dynamic, which I don’t know if you have any brothers or sisters but like for those of us that do, you understand that kind of crazy close relationship that’s like, quasi-competitive, quasi-cooperative and, throughout the course of the game they just, their relationship and how it kind of changes and warps is I think just really exciting and really entertaining.
So, one of the main reasons I think Ty and Troy are gonna end up trying to kill each other. Besides the fact they’re also villains. 
Idk, even in some of the trailer shots Troy doesn’t seem happy around Tyreen. (He might just have resting bitch anxiety face tho lmao.) Despite that, you can see that when they shake forearms when Lily lost her powers, Troy pulls away from her grip pretty roughly. And I know we all want them to have a strong sibling dynamic, especially with how the Hammerlock sibs are, but bottom line is that these guys are the villains. They’re competing against Handsome Jack in the eyes of the players- the guy who killed Bloodwing and Roland and made Tiny Tina cry. They’re gonna have to do some pretty despicable things, and betraying someone who trusted you like a sibling does would definitely do it for me. No forgiveness there.
I do think it’s interesting that he mentions competitiveness and being cooperative. From what we know rn I can see the whole cooperative thing being that Troy is the brains behind the whole operation while Tyreen is the muscle. Tyreen keeps Troy alive and Troy helps her run the cult. I have no idea what the competitiveness is but I’m really hoping it’s going to relate to being streamers with views and shit. “Hey, Ty, 13 bandits sacrificed themselves for me in the past hour alone.” [Ty looks up, covered in blood] “Oh, that’s cute. I’m at 48, nerd, get on my level.” “You killing them doesn’t count.” “... Nobody will know the difference, shut up.”
Danny Homan: Yeah, I mean. Again, you know it kind of all goes back to the fact that they don’t quite look like bandits, there’s something kind of strange going on there. I don’t want to spoil too much of it but no, when you head to Pandora there’s...the greatest underused resources are the bandits themselves, right? They’re an army that were prisoners that were left by the corporations, they’ve kind of become the worst versions of themselves, and the Calypso Twins are smart, they’re savvy, right? They saw this opportunity to maybe galvanize the bandits into a cult and create an army of their own, and the Livescreams, and Let’s Flays, and these kinds of things; they’re a way of amping up their followers and kind of creating this cult machine that kind of attracts more and more followers. It increases their strength.
holy shit okay there’s a lot here and y’all know what I’m about to say: “Holy fuck I hope this is hinting they’re related to Atlas somehow”
okay now that we’ve gotten that out of the way:
“They don’t quite look like bandits” With their coats and Troy’s super high-tech implants, yeah, they certainly look like corporate assholes sent to ‘masquerade’ as bandit leaders. I could see them ending up being Maliwan and/or getting ganked by Maliwan halfway through then Katagawa ends up being the big ol baddie, especially with his VA’s tweet. (But I’m still not letting the Atlas thing die. Not yet :3c)
Tumblr media
They could also simply be from a richer family name, I guess? We know Typhon got a shitload of money from Atlas to give them the Vault key/Vault location, so it's possible they’re doing all this to continue/rekindle the family tradition of Vault hunting and then decided to be super efficient about it.
Related to that is the line “When you head to Pandora” which makes me think the Calypsos are off-worlders who came to Pandora specifically because they knew they’d be able to start their cult there. A planet where there have been 2 Vaults already opened? You’re saying there’s a Vault Key already on world? All the people there are crazed after their corporations left them to die? AND they were worshipping the Firehawk/Sirens for a while? This sounds like the perfect place!
Danny Homan: Sure. I mean, part of it is in the name, the Children of the Vault right? There’s this belief that the Vaults are inherently theirs. They own the Vaults, maybe that it’s their birthright for example. A lot of it really goes back to the fact that the bandits were mistreated, they were left by Dahl Corporation, and they’ve kind of been left ot their own devices on Pandora just to survive the best they can and so the Calypso Twins come along and they recognize that thing: people need a purpose, even if it’s a terrible, maniacal, murder-soaked purpose, people need something to believe in and they need people to believe in them and that’s kind of what the Calypsos have provided. They’ve kind of gone “oh bandits, everyone calls you animals, everyone calls you trash... but we see there’s something, there’s something in you, there’s something we can elevate your murder to. Murder in our name.”
hoooo this is a doozy
So the idea that the cultists are the true owners of the Vaults. I mean, it makes sense. The owner of Dahl didn’t come down and excavate and find all this shit by himself, the workers did. They’re the real owners of these Vaults. They were the ones who put in the work, not whatever big man stepped over them and took the rewards. 
What I don’t understand is ‘it’s their birthright’ in reference to the bandits. I guess we could go metaphorical and say ‘birthright’ as in their new life as a bandit, but... that feels weird. I think this stuff is actually a reference to the twins just as much as its a reference to the Pandoran bandits. (coughAtlascough) I mean, if the twins have some sort of connections to the Vaults like everyone and their mother is theorizing (be it corporation, their ancestor being Typhon, them being Vault monsters/aliens/demons/whatever), then it makes sense that Vaults would be their ‘birthright’. Like, logically. “My dad/grandfather/whatever found the first Vault ever so, technically, they’re mine by blood!” “I’ve been looking for these Vaults for longer than you’ve been alive, human, they’re mine!” “I was created to find/open/help fight the monster inside these Vaults, so they’re mine!” etc etc. 
The whole “people need a purpose, people need something to believe in, they need people to believe in them” uh, yeah, I think that’s about the twins just as much as it is about the bandits. I’m wondering if they’re telling the bandits they’re going to help save the universe by following the cult. By telling them, yeah, murder in our name, we’re gods, this is what the universe needs. This is going to bring justice to you for what the corporations did. etc
Danny Homan: Pandora is one of a kind. It’s this place where insanity seems to be kind of the de facto personality trait that someone needs to survive. Whether you’re a hero or a villain. When you take that aspect of Pandora, how do you bring it to the other planets in the borderlands, right? I think for me that comes down to the fact that the borderlands have kind of been this staging ground for different corporations, it’s like the wild west. It’s a gold rush kind of area. Every place you go has its kind of own different brand of insanity. Madness and insanity and this fact that this is kind of a dark galaxy, right? It’s a place where the governments have fallen, and corporations have kind of taken their place. They’re basically arms dealers with some new-yous and some other technology kind of thrown in so wherever you go in the Borderlands universe there’s that kind of unifying factor of: humanity hasn’t done so great, and there’s only a few people that are what you would call [decent].
Not really much I have to say here, although I do think it’s interesting he mentions New-Us considering they’re not canon and it’s been stated several times that they aren’t by both word of god and by some 'non-canon' posters in TPS. I wonder what that’s supposed to mean. God, I hope they don’t decide to make them canon this game. That would destroy literally all tension story-wise.
Danny Homan: Promethea is rad. It’s the home of Atlas Corporation, it was the site of some of the first Eridian discoveries, so Atlas Corporation discovered Eridian ruins and that was kind of what sparked the borderlands kind of wild west trip to Pandora. There’s just some fun stuff, we’ve never experienced this kind of city in the Borderlands franchise, we had an opportunity in Borderlands 2 but the city is rad, there’s so much fun humour with service bots that you might have seen from the videos. Playing in the city gives you that other side: you have Pandora, you have the wild west, and then you have “what’s insane about a city?” Pretty much everything.
Ah Promethea. Mostly stuff here we already know, tho I have a few questions. 
First, lemme copy and paste something I posted in the dev questions and answers for the bl discord server: is that Eridium growing out of the ground on Promethea and if so does that confirm the Vault there was already opened? And if that is true then does that mean that Gortys was wrong when she said she was created as Atlas's last ditch attempt to open a Vault, or was the Vault on Promethea not opened by Atlas (she references Hyperion opening the 1st Pandoran Vault so we know she was in production still after "those Hyperion guys" open a Vault so it's not like her info is out of date regarding Promethea)? If that's so, did Typhon open it even though he said he sold the key/location to Atlas? Also why is nobody mining Promethea's purple rocks when Pandora was clearly very lucrative for Hyperion? Was Atlas keeping the Eridium secret on Promethea so they could do tests and shit like Hyperion did on Pandora a few years later? Tell me your secrets!!! And if the Vault did open on Promethea, why is there no Eridium scar??)
yeah, lots of questions for Promethea. And one more: are the swamp lands we see in the trailers apart of that planet? I was under the assumption they are because of the way Promethea is described in BL1, plus the outskirts of the city definitely have that swampy feel, but we don’t actually see any of that. Tho Typhon does say: “... Quazmarian Quarry and I fell through some brittle rock” so maybe the other bits of Promethea are more rocky than I originally believed. I do think we’re going to visit that area. I mean, that’s where the Vault supposedly is, according to ya boy Typhon, so...
Tumblr media
u can see from orbit a significant portion of it definitely does have city lights around. though we can’t actually see which parts are land and which are water, so who’s to say for sure. And, to be fair, the lights seem to be changing/wavering so I would even so far to say that it’s some sort of shield (to keep the rocks in orbit from smashing into cities constantly and/or prevent Maliwan attacks)... but that’s just a guess.
Danny Homan: The siege moustache, yeah. Funny side story: part of the reason he has a moustache is because of me. I was going through a very strange social experiment and I was just curious how my co-workers would react if I grew a moustache, and it was a very fascinating week of people - when you grow a moustache people just come up to you and insult you, which is kind of a fascinating thing. When we were thinking about Promethea and Rhys, he’s besieged by Maliwan Corporation and he’s kind of been pushed back into one little area. We thought: “okay, well what is he gonna do to kind of rally his troops and make them believe him?” And it’s a siege moustache.
well at least he’s not the Calypso twins, rallying people and making them believe in their leader because of murder so he’s got that going for him. Excited to see just how many more people insult Rhys over the course of the game. I am fucking ecstatic to see what Fiona is going to say.
Danny Homan: Yeah, Handsome Jack is dead.
god bless Danny Homan
seriously, I hope they don’t bring back AI Jack as a way to subvert this. I really really hope they don’t. Let the character RIP. Bringing him back is only going to beat a dead gift horse in the mouth. or whatever
Danny Homan: I don’t want to spoil anything at this moment, you might learn a little more at E3. Man, Tales is such an amazing game, I don’t know, I just love it. Telltale did such an incredible job and all of those characters are just fascinating. Whether its Rhys or Vaughan or Fiona, and yeah, who knows.
I’m hoping it’s Vaughn. I love Vaughn. But confirmation that Fiona is okay and alive and everything would be great, too. Only a few more days, y’all. We can do it
Danny Homan: You know, you’ve gotta write for the person who’s never played the game before and doesn’t know what Pandora is, doesn’t know what a Claptrap is, right? We write for - we had to kind of straddle that line between people who have played every game in the franchise and people who are just experiencing it for the first time. What you quickly learn is that insanity is kind of the rule of law. Claptrap at the beginning of the first missions says, you blow something up and he goes, “Relax, on Pandora it’s really super weird if something's not exploding!” And that’s how we onboard players. Because when you hear that line and you go “okay, that’s a weird thing. Explosions are just par for the course on Pandora.”
this does make me a little worried that the storyline won’t be as in-depth as we’re all hoping it is. I mean i know I get a little crazy with the theories bc i live my life in the wiki, but people new to the series would be like “whu?? huh????”
and i mean, not that i’m saying you shouldn’t play the game if you don’t have at least a little bit of lore knowledge, but I’m really hoping BL3 will fill in the huge gaps we need and if they have to cut things because they won’t make sense to newcomers of the series, that’ll make me sad. i’m talking stuff like revisiting things from TPS, the Destroyer from BL1, etc, etc. I hope they at least have some cutscenes explaining previous events like the beginning of bl2. Although it’d be a lot more difficult cuz the story in bl1 is pretty fuckin simple lol and now they have to summarize 4 games for someone who’s never played them before. ouch.
Danny Homan: You work on - we have quite a few writers and we kind of work on all of the missions together. We kind of have missions that we start with, and characters that we shepherd, but it’s a pretty highly collaborative environment. We have a writers room, we punch up stuff, we play our missions. I’ve always loved Ellie, I just think Ellie is one of the most amazing characters and it’s been such a pleasure to be able to write for her. I’m a southerner at heart, so I’ve been able to sneak in a few: “squish squish Jellyfish” and “in a while crocodile” kind of stuff...
I’m happy Ellie is apparently having a bigger impact in this game than the previous one. Most of her side quests are great and tbh unlike most npcs I don’t get quite as annoyed when I’m going my 50th playthrough and have to do the Ellie stuff. I’m glad she was the one to inherit the Catch-A-Ride stations and not Janey. It seems right
>Would you say that there’s a favourite character [of yours] of the new ones that you have? Danny Homan: Well, we haven’t met all of them yet so it’s kind of hard to weigh in on that. >That’s fair. Danny Homan: I’m excited about the new characters. Borderlands is awesome because there’s so many characters from this franchise and they’re all really rad and fun to work with. As a writer, being able to create new characters is good.
Confirmed we’re going to be seeing more characters than the twins, Lorelei, and Nope girl. And you can bet your ass I’m trusting NONE of them until the game is over lmao
>Are we going to see the final unknown Siren in this story? Danny Homan: *sighs* You’re gonna have to wait and find out, man. >Are new Sirens created when old ones die? Danny Homan: These are all great questions. You might find out some of that in this game. Who knows? >Can existing people become Sirens? Danny Homan: Um, that’s an interesting question. I mean, there’s a lot of ways that someone can become a Siren. It’s not a de facto X-Men kind of thing. There’s some different conditions that kind of arise. Yeah, Sirens are unique and I feel like we like to keep it a little amorphous. What we like the most is when fans kind of create their own myths and stories about how this kind of stuff happens. As a writer we try not to definitively say one thing because there’s a lot possible.
Okaaay so there’s a lot here.
To start, when Danny is like “iunno man, wait and see” I wanna say that’s almost a guaranteed ‘yes’. I mean, like, if it were the case that it wasn’t going to happen, he could’ve just been like “no, sorry, that doesn’t happen”.
(proof, the next interaction is: >Are we going to see Scooper in this story? Danny Homan: I don’t think so.
Additionally:
>How many tea parties with Tina do we get in Borderlands 3? Danny Homan: *laughs* You’re going to have to wait and see. >There’s a lot of wait and sees going on. Danny Homan: We don’t want to spoil anything!)
So theorizing for the 1st 2 questions?
Final Unknown Siren: we know Steele, Amara, Tyreen, Lilith, Maya, and Angel. Steele died 12 years ago, meaning the ‘final unknown siren’ has to be at most 12. Angel’s dead, too, but the other Siren would be 7, so I don’t think we’ll be meeting her. She’s most likely the mystery mask girl we see in the MoM, and we all have our theories regarding her.
are New Sirens created when Old Sirens die? Well... we kinda already knew that in general, but I get what the interviewer is actually trying to ask. Are Sirens we know going to die in this game? I’m gonna say yeah. I think either Lorelei or Nope girl (Little Blue) are going to get Siren powers one way or another. I wouldn’t be surprised if Maya/Lilith don’t make it through this one. I want to say Lilith will die, since she’s been in almost all the games, but Maya is apparently training some little girl, so she is in the path of d a n g e r. Maybe they’ll both die. Who knows!
As for the “can existing people become Sirens”. I’m gonna say yeah. I think Danny leaves his answer supre vague for a reason. We know Tyreen has the ability to steal Siren powers, so I wouldn’t be surprised if she (or Troy) has the power to gift stolen powers. I also wouldn’t be surprised if the red Vault we see the twins at in their art gave them their ‘Siren’ powers. Maybe a corporation finally found a way to create artificial Sirens (Atlas, I wouldn’t be surprised w/ Troy’s red tattoos and Maliwan has an entire area called ‘Archives’ with a Vault symbol on the door and what look like Siren tattoos sprawled across a building. We also gotta consider Hyperion’s eridium testing... not that they could ever do it, but maybe another corporation could have built off that?) 
In the comics it's shown Lilith gets her tattoos after an older Siren dies in front of her, but maybe Sirens are chosen when they are born and they get their tattoos later in life when their powers are unlocked (by another Siren dying/losing their powers/whatever). We do see a pic of Angel on Jack’s desk without tattoos, so that is plausible, tho people have also mentioned he could’ve photoshopped her tattoos out so nobody would question him.
Anyway. Yeah, there’s probably a lot of ways a person can become a Siren. 
>How much time has passed between BL2 and BL3 narratively? Danny Homan: Roughly the time since BL2 launched, so it’s been about seven years. >So just chronologically accurate to the development time. Danny Homan: Yeah, absolutely.
Shoutout to that one person with the Odyssey theory about how the time between bl2 and bl3 would be 7 years to match development time. right on the mark, my man. People who quote Randy saying it’s about 5 years: claptrap confirms it’s 7 years during his Clapslist board quest activation.
>Is there one Vault Hunter in particular that’s returning that you’re excited for people to see - now that we’re kind of talking about how we can’t talk about a lot of the new ones, is there a returning one you’re particularly excited about? Danny Homan: For Borderlands 2 I played as Maya and we saw her on the ship. She was always my favorite, I love Sirens in general. She’s a great character.
Not much to say here, Maya looks fantastic in bl3 tho. God she looks badass as fuck. Hope she takes over if/when Lilith dies lmao
>Speaking of the ship, it’s interesting that we’re getting this homebase dynamic that’s a spaceship. Are there any pop culture properties that you kind of borrowed from when designing that? I got Firefly-esque vibes when I was watching the presentation. Danny Homan: Yeah, there’s similar kinds of franchises that kind of quasi-sci-fi-west. What I love about Sanctuary [3] is that it is a spaceship but it’s got band-aids on it, you know? It’s a Borderlands spaceship so it’s got broken parts of the ship and it’s kind of got its own charm. It feels very lived-in. So as you walk around you see stairs that have been broken, you see an exhaust pipe that someone has put tin foil over, right? It’s very kitbash put together.
More reasons I’m of the theory that Sanctuary-III has been in operation for longer than BL3. Unfortunately, probably not the case, but I want to believe! We do see those screenshots in the trailer of the ship being infested by rat-like aliens, so I’m sure there will be a quest or two to clean those out. My question is if that happens before we get the ship (we must clean out the ship in order for Ellie to work it and get it in orbit) or it happens while we’re already in-flight and the rats got in through a shuttle ship/fast travel/whatever. Or, alternatively, the infested one we see is a totally different ship and we’re going in for parts/some reason. Like a ship AI or something. that’d be cool. I wonder if Sanc-III has a ship AI... I miss Felicity...
>How much work went into designing the ship’s atmosphere? It feels like a lot of the NPCs had things to say. Is there a lot of writing that goes into that as well? Danny Homan: Yeah, we’ve got a lot of NPCs on board. Our goal as writers is to make it feel like a living breathing place, right? So we spend so much time traveling around the ship being like “what would I want to comment on? That exhaust pipe is leading to nowhere. Let’s comment on that.”
I would not be surprised if we end up collecting NPCs from every planet we visit. We already see Promethea Citizens on board during the Sanc-III demo (which let to me questioning the timeline of that demo, I stand by my theory that it happens after we go to Promethea and after we visit the Monastery planet- that’s why Tannis has the dino corpse (Promethea) and Maya is on-board (Monastery). But, then again, maybe the swamp planet isn’t Promethea. Kinda think it is though. We’ll find out and I’ll update things accordingly.)
>Any one specific narrative beat that you can talk about that you’re really excited for fans to experience in Borderlands 3? Danny Homan: I really like the moment where we first meet the Calypso Twins face-to-hologram. Tyreen says “you’re my most loyal follower you just don’t know it yet” and there’s a lot kind of packed into that line. The Calypso Twins have this kind of strange arrogance where they presume you’re just going to be another one of their followers. There’s some interesting ways that kind of plays out.
asefdrtadfs there’s so much here holy shit. Homan confirming “You’re my most loyal follower, Vault thief, you just don’t know it yet” is super important. I 100% believe the twins know exactly what they’re doing and have an inside man and are letting all this play out. I would also not be surprised if they have a way to see the future ala mystery masked girl’s siren power, but I may be reading into things too much there lol
I also think it's interesting he says “we first meet the Calypso Twins face-to-Hologram”. I wonder what that says for my “the room after Shiv is somewhere we’re going to get info on the sun smashers stealing the key from the RC” theory. Might mean the twins are doing a broadcast on TV to all their cultists, or maybe Mouthpiece is broadcasting. Wouldn’t even be surprised if they’re livestreaming their murder of the HBC people (we find all those corpses, after all). Could explain why Ty says “did you come all this way just to see me? didn’t know you were such a super-fan. well, too bad, you missed the show!”
>Is that going to crop up in the narrative - them trying to kind of pull the player over? Danny Homan: That and also just that kind of sense that entertainers always kind of feel like everyone should be watching them. Everyone should be paying attention to them. >That’s an interesting beat. Danny Homan: Part of the fun of the Calypso Twins is that they are entertainers, right? They’re entertaining you and they’re entertaining the bandits. That’s why the cult exists. They’re kind of - they’re doing terrible things in the name of their cult.
I love this so much. It would be super interesting if we end up teaming up with them at some point to beat a badder enemy (Maliwan, Vault Monsters, Seraphs, Eridians) whatever it may be. Would be really cool if the Watcher pushes for us to join up with them (ALL the Vault Hunters we can get). I wonder if they’ll have quests like Jack (when he asks us to kill ourselves) but instead they ask us to do weird shit on camera for their ECHOnet channel. I’m sure Gearbox will find a way to make it all appear morally gray in the end anyway lol
Actually, where IS the Watcher..? I hope she doesn’t die in Commander Lilith... Maybe she went back to the Eridian homeworld. Oh that’d be interesting. she comes back later on in the game to lead us there/deliver news or smth...

Anything specific you're looking forward to with the FF7 remake? Anything you have high hopes for in particular?
Tumblr media
((Hoooo boy. What a doozy! Let me see if I can put my thoughts into coherent statements to respond to this. :) 
I have a lot of high hopes for this remake. I’m a plot-driven person, so I gravitate to games that have solid plots. Others may be more worried about the combat system, or weapons/accessories/materia, or how the open world mechanics will work...but I’m all about that sweet sweet storytelling. A lot of gaps in the story were left behind in the original game, due to lack to priority, bad translating, or whatever else. We got sinippits over the years of filling these gaps, but I really hope that overall, we get some answers to these 20+ year old questions. I’ll list a few of the things I’m looking forward to the most/hope that’s included in the remake:
- More development of AVALANCHE; I mean interactions, characterization, plot...I really hope we see more of Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie before the fall of the plate. They’re fantastic tutorial characters and really help to set up the beginning atmosphere of the game. With my close ties with my muse, I know I also really hope to see an expansion of the relationships/interactions with these characters, including with Tifa, Barret, and Cloud. It looks that way with what we’ve seen in the trailers, so I’m very excited about that. 
- A cohesive rundown of Nibelheim; we got a lot of this in Crisis Core and I bit in the Last Order anime short, but things didn’t canonically fit with what was established in the OG, so I’m really looking forward to more in-depth presentations of what happened there, as well as hoping for the aftermath. How it turned into a place full of Sephiroth clones wasn’t explored well in the OG, and I would love to see how that went down or how ShinRa managed to cover it all up considering there were some survivors (also a follow up on what happened with Zangan would be awesome). 
- Kinda going along with that....I am super hype for showing the effects of trauma on Cloud (and hopefully the others throughout the game);  His hallucinations look wicked and I love the realism there. Some of those scenes in the OG were confusing or seemed out of place, so cohesion with them and their intensity and how they deeply impact Cloud and the others in the game looks really exciting, so I’m looking forward to more of that. 
- Expanded backstory on all the main characters; I feel like if they’re going to make each “episode” feel like a full game, they should spend more time on the main characters, especially Yuffie and Vincent (since they better not be secret characters like in the OG). I want to know more about everyone and more character arcs for them, especially Cait Sith. He was my least favorite character in the OG, but I feel like a lot of that had to do with a lack of real character development (which could’ve been so well in the game but was just kinda thrown in sorta) and hope to see more attention paid to those sorts of things. 
- ALL THE CHOCOBOS. ALL THE GOLD SAUCER. ALL THE COSTA DEL SOL. Just... all those side things that are super fun and a nice break from grinding. I look forward to seeing what they do with that. 
- I really hope we get more summons added to the game. I am excited to see what they all look like (FFXV made me super fucking hype) and how they interact in combat. I’m also looking forward to seeing redesigns of the limit breaks. The few we’ve seen already look REALLY GOOD.
- While I doubt it’ll happen...I really want some of the cheesy lines to stay. Please have the characters swear, have Cloud say LET’S MOSEY. Things like that. There was a charm to that in the OG that I don’t won’t be lost in the remake.
- A High definition version of the Tifa v. Scarlet slap scene. Yes please.
Things I’m not looking forward to:
- The death scenes. Why? Because those devastated me in polygon and text back in the day. Upscaled, theatrical graphics? Fuck me.  
- The WEAPONs. Those battles are going to be brutal and I can already imagine the hours of grinding it’ll take to fight those off.
- An accurate portrayal of the Tifa getting gassed scene. That was messed up in the OG as it was, but picturing that brutality in updated graphics...shudder.))

i still have doubts about whether will is actually in love with hannibal ;(
Well nonny you have come to the right place. Because I have no such doubts. I am overwhelmed on a daily basis by just how much Will Graham loves Hannibal Lecter. It’s late and I’m exhausted and I really should be doing this during daylight hours, so please excuse the rambling and caps lock and incoherence. Also, I’m putting most of this below a cut because I have no chill and it’s way too long and gif-heavy for me to inflict upon unsuspecting dashes.
Anyway, come with me nonny on a magical journey back to mid-season 2. Will is all fresh outta prison with his sassy brows and slick new haircut and he is just dead set on Reckoning. He is going to catch that mother fucker and it is going to be GLORIOUS.
There’s only one problem
Tumblr media
Will can’t actually bring himself to hate Hannibal. 
Even after all he’s done! Will was literally just neck-deep in fishing metaphors with Jack Crawford on the ice and already it’s apparent how torn he truly is. And… oh boy
Tumblr media
Hannibal is whispering through that chrysalis at his murder caterpillar and Will’s falling faster than Sheldon Isley in a strong wind. And then, the very next episode opens with dream ghost Hannibal declaring his love and Will clenching his sheets in the wake of his bloodgasm.
And he knows Hannibal has love for him, and that he can use that love to his advantage. But how can we be certain that at this point Will feels the same? I mean, sure, he’s totally playing Hannibal and conspiring with Jack to capture Hannibal the moment he reveals himself with something tangible, but he’s also… not really lying about a whole lot beyond that?
Tumblr media
Will is being true to himself when he’s with Hannibal. He’s finally met his equal, someone that Mr. Shadow-Suspended-On-Dust can talk to without feeling like a freak, someone he can relate to, someone on his own fucking level JUST LOOK AT THAT FACE HE IS SO INTO THIS. 
Will knows Hannibal should be caught. He deserves to be caught. He knows that Hannibal is technically a monster and the world would be better off without him. But every step of the way Will just sort of… stops that from actually happening.
Arrest Hannibal when he makes his move against Mason Verger?
Tumblr media
Orrrrr he could just stand there staring all gooey eyed instead. And speaking of season 2 looks, hoooo boy nonny
Tumblr media
Mizumono is the WORST. Boy has got it so bad. And then Hannibal goes ahead and suggests they just run away together right then and there and he
Tumblr media
he wants to so bad??? But he’s still managing to convince himself that he can do what needs to be done when the moment comes but then he cAN’T HE CAN’T AND YOU KNOW WHAT NONNY I CAN’T EITHER THIS IS ALL SO TERRIBLE
Anyway, Will makes the call and tells Hannibal that they know in the hopes he will run away before he’s caught. And he goes to the house as planned expecting to be all lol WHERE’S HANNIBAL I CERTAINLY DON’T KNOW THIS SURE IS A DOOZY JACK but the bad things happen and
Tumblr media
Will is obviously stunned over the whole situation and what happened to Alana and seeing Abigail but HE LITERALLY HAS A FUCKING GUN IN HIS HAND HERE AND HE IS JUST??? SO SOFT??? HE IS MELTING IN HANNIBAL’S GAZE AND HE JUST. LETS. IT. HAPPEN. HE WALKS RIGHT ONTO HIS BLADE 
Tumblr media
HE LETS HANNIBAL HOLD HIM EVEN AFTER HE’S JUST BEEN GUTTED BY THOSE VERY HANDS.
It’s horrendous. But it’s also soft and tender because that’s just how these two roll. And because Will cannot muster up an ounce of rage for Hannibal no matter how he tries.
Flash forward to season 3 and our boy is pining in Hannibal’s kitchen and hangin’ with dream ghost Abigail and saying things like this to Jack Crawford
Tumblr media
In case the entirety of late season 2 didn’t make it clear enough, the show went and spelled it right out for us. What Will truly wanted for himself was a life with Hannibal. Because Will never knows himself as well as he knows himself when he’s with him.
Tumblr media
And he’s able to forgive Hannibal even after seeing Abigail brutally murdered by that giant toddler with a linoleum knife right before his eyes
Tumblr media
And then he hops on the S.S. Hannigram and sails to Europe solo to stumble down the halls of Hannibal’s beginnings, and when they see each other for the first time in eight months
Tumblr media
they share the softest most tender moment in television history. And yeah, Will’s planning on killing Hannibal after all the smiles and eye love making, but he’s only allowed himself to believe that Hannibal’s death is a necessity because without it, he will never be able to let him go. As he tells Jack when asked if he’s going to slip away with Hannibal
Tumblr media
Hannibal is Will’s greatest weakness. If he doesn’t kill him, he will never be capable of letting him go. But things don’t exactly go according to plan, and after… so many terrible things, Will is just so done with everything he decides to just trick Hannibal into turning himself in. Which is objectively a terrible plan, because of the whole can’t live without him thing, but after what he had been through, I can’t blame him for just throwing in the towel at that point.
BUT THEN we flash forward three years and Will’s built a quiet little life for himself with Molly and her son, but he jumps at the first opportunity to see Hannibal again
Tumblr media
and this is an actual thing that his face does. Okay, Will. Okay. Boy’s got it worse than ever and now that he’s back in… he is BACK THE FUCK IN. Even the whole trying to have his family killed thing can’t stop Will Graham’s heart from beating for Hannibal and Hannibal alone.
The very best evidence for Will being hopelessly in love comes in the final two episodes of the season. First, after Will asks The Question, Bedelia asks Will if he feels the same and
Tumblr media
he doesn’t answer. But it’s not because he doesn’t know or that the answer is no. It’s that the question is entirely rhetorical. OF COURSE HE DOES. Why else would Will forgive Hannibal again and again and again? Why else would he crave being in Hannibal’s presence so desperately, despite it being so profoundly harmful?
Tumblr media
Will Graham is in love. Will Graham is utterly, horrifyingly in love. And it is a love that he would kill and die for. A love that he would allow to kill him. A love for which there is no cure.
Tumblr media
Will didn’t take Hannibal off that cliff in the end because he wanted to sacrifice himself to take out a monster. In that moment, they were both monsters reveling in the horror of their love. He felt GOOD. So good, there with Hannibal, in complete honesty of what they shared together. Their love so great, he knew there was no going back.

Wormhole: What’s something you wish would happen, but know won’t?
hoooo boy. this is gonna be a doozy...
i wish they would give me another chance. 
what i mean is... wish i could get the chance to try again. one more time. just... leave everything in the past, and try to be friends again. 
but things went south, and i have only myself to blame for that. i don’t blame them for not wanting to interact with me anymore. the guilt of my actions and wishful thinking will, in all honesty haunt me for the rest of my life. i hurt them all too much and as much as i would kill for another chance, sometimes... sometimes you don’t deserve another chance. sometimes you just fuck up, and that’s it. it doesn’t matter how much i change my life, they... they’re not coming back. i know they aren’t. so there’s no point in trying to get them back. 
i just gotta change for myself. to make myself happier. cause no one can make me happy, except me.
