DEATH SHALL FIND YOU

————

The Gotham Sirens.

You never imagined that this would happen to you. Not in a million years. The group had taken off almost instantly and you’d become world famous. You stared up at the stage, the neon blue of your band's name glowing. Several technicians ran past you and smiled, altering the mic stands and taping down the wires so no one would fall. You loved the hustle and bustle just before the performance. Even standing on that stage in front of millions of people, nothing made your soul buzz like the beginning set up of a show.

You, Selina, Ivy and Harley had met at Gotham University majoring in Dance and Music. At first it had been nothing more than just a class assignment. Create a song. But Harley uploaded it onto Instagram and it blew up the internet. The next thing you knew, Mr Roman Sionis - headhunter for Dent Sounds Record Label - himself had arranged a meeting with the four of you.

And well, as they say, the rest was history. That was over 3 years ago now. It had been a complete blur. You were still catching up. You were no longer having to scrimp and save for cash. No. Now, now you had everything. Everything you’d ever dreamed of. Everything but your privacy. Especially after the meeting this morning with Roman.

——

“You’re not being serious are you?”.

You looked into the mirror whilst the make up artist finished off your eyelashes. Your manager, Roman, stood behind you with his arms crossed. A stern look stitched onto his face.

“Of course I am”, he huffed and his stare burned into you, “You’ve received another death threat and someone tried to break into your condo last month. You need more security. Something more personal”.

You rolled your eyes and the make up artist scolded you by smacking her brush on your wrist. You grinned cheekily at her before resting back in your chair, putting on your sickliest, sweetest voice, “Romy…”.

Your little nickname for him. It worked every time. He’d never allow anyone else to call him that. Just you.

“No”, he growled, “This is my final decision. You’re getting a personal bodyguard. I don’t want to find you chopped into tiny pieces”.

“How come Ivy doesn’t have to have one? Or Selina...even Harley doesn’t! So why me?”.

You didn’t need a bodyguard. You knew the second you got one, you would be kissing your freedom goodbye. They’d be with you 24/7. Your apartment would be shared. You wouldn’t even be able to sneak off to McDonalds for a McFlurry at 3am without having to confirm it with them. Or even worse, have them go with you.

“They haven’t had any psychotic stalkers”, Roman rested against the wall, sighing deeply, “yet”.

You scowled and refused to meet his eyes in the mirror. This was a complete over reaction.

“Look, I know you’re not happy but this goes way over my head. Mr Dent, the CEO—insisted. And to be honest Y/N, I think it’s a good idea. You girls are only getting more popular and that means more weirdos will crawl out of the woodwork”.

“Romy…”, you tried once more, turning to him and fluttering your dark, thick lashes at him, “Can’t you talk to Mr Dent?”.

He pressed a hand to his forehead, the muscles in his forearms contracting. You noticed the dark shadows under his eyes and silently wondered when he last got a good night's sleep.

“I’m sorry”, he muttered, “But I agree with Harv on this one, I’ve already been in touch with a firm. They’re highly recommended…you’ll meet them tomorrow”.

He turned quickly and strode out of the changing room as his phone rang, ending the conversation abruptly. You could hear his booming voice bouncing down the corridor and you glared at yourself in the mirror.

Fucking perfect.

————

Dumping a wad of paperwork down onto the desk, Jason sighed and took a long sip of his coffee. He knew high profile clientele came with difficulty but the stack of paperwork Sionis had sent him was nothing short of ridiculous. They even wanted to know where he’d bought his new leather jacket from last month.

“Alright?”, Roy sauntered over with his own coffee cup shuffling some of the papers. He was awfully chipper this early in the morning. Jason hummed in response and grabbed a pen from the side beginning to fill in the required forms.

He’d started this business with Roy a few years ago. Dropping out of university was tough but it wasn’t for him. Jason remembered worrying about telling Bruce. What his family would think of him but they showed him nothing but support. Unconditional love. They’d both managed, with countless hours, to build ‘Outlaws Security’, into the most successful security firm in Gotham.

Roy’s eyebrows lifted upon seeing a photo of the new client, “Isn’t that the chick you had on your wall at uni?”.

“What? No!”, Jason bristled and shoved the photo of you back under the documents. He inwardly cursed. Fucking Roy.

“So, you're saying that if I look inside your office locker, I won't find a poster of her?”.

Jason heard the cocky smirk on Roy’s face and groaned in irritation running a hand over the front of his face, “Touch my locker and I’ll break your legs”.

Roy cackled loudly and sat on the edge of Jason’s desk, “Ok so you do still have it. Better not let her find it”.

“You’re a real jackass you know”.

“So I’ve heard...maybe she’ll sign it for you if you ask nicely”, Roy continued to mock Jason, making kissy faces at him.

“Why don’t you shut your mouth before I shut it for you”, Jason scowled and turned his chair around pretending to look for some files in the cabinet behind him. Hoping Roy would get the hint and leave him alone.

“This must be like your dream job come true, pretty boy—better not screw it up”.

Jason sighed deeply and threw his head back in exasperation, “I need a new best friend”.

Roy gasped dramatically and held a hand over his heart, “What?! You love me and you know it!”.

“Whoever told you that was lying”.

↳ 𝐁𝐋𝐋𝐊 𝐁𝐎𝐘𝐒 𝐊𝐈𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒 (pt.2)

with… kunigami rensuke, itoshi rin, itoshi sae, shidou ryusei, and barou shoei!

woohoo part two!! heres pt.1!

KUNIGAMI RENSUKE (pre-wild card):

- it doesnt matter what kind of kiss it is, he is so SO RED.

- i cant stop thinking abt when in the beginning of the manga when isagi compliments him and kunigami gets flustered and embarrassed

- his first kiss with you: his eyes were squeezed shut and he was as straight as a rod, hands by his side, heart beating out of his chest like on the verge of passing out

- but after some time he starts to get comfortable, a warm hand on your waist as you lean yourself into his body, his fingers tightly brushing your your cheek and jaw

- but even as he pulls away, you can see a deep blush covering his entire face

- his deep voice turns hoarse and honestly there’s the possibility of voice cracks if you nip or lick at his lips just enough

- kunigami whos kind of obsessed with the way you press your body up against his when youre kissing him, you fingers feeling the hardness of his muscles through his clothes

ITOSHI RIN:

- he was always kind of weary of physical touch from everyone and anyone: friends or family, he just wasnt fond of it at all

- so kissing was a completely foreign idea

- like kunigami, it took him time to warm up to kisses. he never really found the appeal to them until multiple weeks after you first kissed him

- after though… he always asks for kisses. and he makes you initiate it. motioning/pulling you over to capture his lips on yours

- but sometimes it literally did not matter what you were doing. he’d pull you away from the stove or take your attention off the tv for a good 30 seconds just to feel your lips on his

- it wasnt that he was bossy.. but when he wants a kiss, hes going to get one no matter what

ITOSHI SAE:

- much like rin, physical touch just wasnt something that he enjoyed or craved at all

- but after the first time he kissed you, he literally craved it 24/7

- of course he never told you, it was more like he wanted too but he was always so hesitant with his affection. he tending to wait for you to initiate it.

- other than that, he is generally casual with hand holding or light touches, but kissing was just.. he never made the first move.

- (i am very caught up on the idea of sae being late to show his affection can you tell)

- it was embarrassing and almost humilating, but he hoped that he could just look at you and silently lure you over to kiss him (and it worked everytime)

- i also think sae enjoys kissing you while youre asleep. before he leaves and youre still peacefully asleep in bed, he comes over to your side and gently presses his lips to your forehead. his way to show affection without feeling embarrassed and without your teasing

- (holy shit super off topic but i absolutely love the idea of sae having a possessive streak, like a hand always on your hip or his fingers wrapped around your wrist (dare i say hickies strategically placed and unable to be hidden from others to show that youre his))

SHIDOU RYUSEI:

- shidou ryusei who is SO unashamed of any kind of affection towards you, he literally does not give two shits if your friends or his friends are watching

- he’ll pull you out of the conversation and into his arms, forcing you to completely block out everything else but him. his fingers holding your chin in place with his lips moving against yours and his tongue poking out to lick at your mouth

- honestly you were surprised and almost offended the first time he did it, but now when his hands are suddenly tugging at you, you indulge yourself into his touch and kiss him breathless before nonchalantly returning to the convo as if he didnt just suck your face off

- shidou whos also very casual with his affection, kinda like bachira he isnt ashamed because he also like to tease you and see your reactions no matter where you and him are

BAROU SHOEI:

- i honestly want going to do barou but here anyway !

- barou who kisses you with utmost passion and love, he doesnt like being teased or teasing because kissing is a very serious, intimate, romantic activity with you. he wants to show his affection and nothing is going to stop him

- like chigiri, he enjoys kisses in private much more than in public, qnd like isagi, he likes casual kisses

- goodmorning kisses, goodnight kisses, very very domestic relaxed kisses throughout his day helps him keep his composure

- barou loves it when you reach back behind his neck and fiddle with the ends of his hair when its loose and falling over his shoulders. or when you run your fingers through the shaved sides and around the shell of his ears

- barou blushes with his ears because i said so. when you pull your lips away from his, his face is literally so neutral and calm, but when he turns away and his hair flips over his shoulder for half a second, it reveals his bright red ears

introduction

because i think i should actually do one at last

hi. i’m azuri. azuri is not my real name, but since i am a minor it is best to use a nickname instead of my real one. you here that? a MINOR. so, creeps, get the fuck off of my blog right now. thank you.

i adore cats and moths. like. if a character is either cat-like or moth-like, they are now one of my favorite characters.

i love anthropomorphic animals. they’re literally the thing i draw the most. i draw myself as a humanoid fox/moth hybrid creature. i guess that makes me a furry.

i do not accept commissions for the sole reason of not being able to finish them.

i love books, i love cartoons, i love nighttime, wintertime, pretty things, cute things, spiders, dragons, horses, music, the concept of magic, i love literally everything except for: chemistry (listen i tried to love chemistry but it’s caused me way too much pain), fire (pyrophobia), people hurting other people (physically, mentally, etc.), generally immoral stuff literally everyone knows is wrong (theft, murder, sexual violence, slavery, neglect of children or pets, you get the idea), ai stealing artists’ jobs, and pain.

i fully believe in treating everyone with compassion, no matter who they are or what they have done. i also fully believe that criminals should receive consequences for their crimes.

i’m female, i’m aroace, i’m introverted with monophobia/autophobia, i don’t like dogs despite having 2 of them, i have 11 cats that i will often clutter this blog with, and i believe that we cannot achieve true equality without first dismantling amatonormativity.

thank you for interacting with this blog.

UPDATE 8/10/24

new sorting system!! still gotta tag everything but here’s what’s in place right now!!

#azurite’s rambles — text posts! #azurite’s reblogs — stuff i reblog and add my own commentary onto! i am a mindless reblogger, though, so it’ll take a while to tag everything #azurite’s stories — stuff related to my stories!! #azurite’s cats — my cats. #azurite’s art — my art!

it’s going to take a long while for this sorting thing to be in place, just so you’re aware! but this is the start! woohoo!

UPDATE 8/25/24

i found out that i'm a therian not too long ago! a snowy owl, to be exact.

so, yea, add that to the list of things about me!

SxF Chapter 93 Thoughts

I usually don't comment on each release but today's chapter caught my attention

I'm really happy for Damian! The growthh, from second place to first place!! Let's gooo 🔥 🔥

Heh. Considering the growth rate of Anya's grade in the span of weeks, I already expected her to place second, so I'm not surprised. I feel smug. Heh.

But, to think someone could score higher than 89 points, when Classical language is barely taught anymore! Who is this person, will we meet him soon?

Woww Becky, 5th in Language Studies? Not bad at all!

Huh, I didn't think Ewen would place that low in science (I expected him to place top 5). I guess it'll take awhile for him to catch up with Damian to become imperial scholars.

Aww no comment about Ewen? :(

Wow dang, not a muscle-head, huh? Congrats Bill, that's impressive!

(he has potentials to be a great sniper with those math skills and analyzing skills if he were in military, lolol)

Oh fuck a Tonitrus

NOOOO

So Anya got 3 Stella and 3 Tonitrus? The theory that Anya will be the first Imperial Scholar to have 8 Stella and 7 Tonitrus is not that far off 🤣

(anya got 3 tonitrus instead of 2 is only because she helped damian. augh, im still salty about it)

But 24 in Math is not a bad grade at all, considering her quizz's result. Just a few more points until she pass the passing grade! It's okay Anya, you did your best!

Dafuq do you mean, Sigmund Grandpa. Why such depressing talk for a 4-yo kid. It's almost like he gives her a warning about the price of becoming a spy 👀 Especially since Anya declared she wished for world peace. As if he already knows her telepathic ability 👀 👀

AWW YESS ASK HER TWILLIGHT. Freaking finally.

Awwh. Oh well.

Anya and Damian will become Imperial Scholars together, just wait.

WOOHOO DEMETRIUS. I didn't expect it but it does make sense he'd appear now 🤣

Damn. 6 Stella in one sitting? He is a beast, alright.

Agh, he ugly. Ew.

Definitely emo, which is great 🤣

The old man's gene run strong. I am so glad Damian resembles his mother more

But stilll it feels great to see him in canon after only seeing him in fanarts for years! And to think it's pretty accurate too! 🤣

Whoah I didn't expect his mind to go silent like that. Is he simply an eccentric kid? Or does he have a telepathic ability like Anya that'd allow him to block certain frequencies?

"Maybe he really is just too busy nowadays?" No hon. As much as I want to agree with you, I don't think so. You're telling me that Donovan, a leader of a political party, is busier now than the time when he was leading a country? Nah. He just loves your brother more

(but if he's indeed busier nowadays, I wonder what he's up to 👀)

Aww Loid 😂 If only you know she's mimicking Demetrius, you'd be over the moon with this informations 🤣

Great chapter! 9/10 🏅🏅🏅

Charisma House - Superhuman Sharehouse Story “Charisma” - #104 Foundation

Please read alongside listening to the drama track on Youtube.

Let me know if I missed something!

Iori: Haaaaaaaah~~??

Nakagami: Owuh! Motohashi-kun, your voice…!

Iori: Keeping quiet from everyone should be more than enough. And now you’re asking me to make you food?

Iori: Don’t get ahead of yourself! You’re our enemy!

(Nakagami clinging onto Iori)

Nakagami: …I beg of you, Motohashi-kun, I need your assistance.

Nakagami: Phoo… phoo… slllluuurppp….slulululurp… ahhh!!!

Nakagami: Delish!

Iori: Really? I’m glad~♪

Iori: HUH!? EEEH!? What am I doing! Why did I cook udon!

Iori: !? …!?

Nakagami: Motohashi-kun, I have one more request. Would you mind installing these miniscule cameras in every nook and cranny of the house?

Iori: Hah?

Nakagami: You’re all in danger at the moment, so I’ll protect you all. That’s why I would like to have you all under constant surveillance.

Iori: As if I will ever do that!

Nakagami: …Please, help me.

Iori: Installation has been fully completed!

Iori: Living, kitchen, entry hall, bathroom, bath, toilet, bedroom yadda yadda

Iori: Under 24 hour surveillance, no one can keep any secrets! 

Iori: Even everyone’s buttholes aren’t spared! Woohoo!

Nakagami: Thank you

Iori: HUUUH!? WHAA!? EEEH!? What just happened!? What did I do!?

Nakagami: And one last thing

Iori: N-n-no more!!!!

Nakagami: I would like you to leave this house with me and cooperate with investigating Charisma

Iori: STOOOP! STOP!

(Iori bolting out of the room)

Iori: NEVEEER!!

Torahime: …S-Sensei… is this okay?

Nakagami: Yes, how are things on your end

Torahime: He hasn’t exposed me either.

Torahime: Motohashi Iori is genuinely not saying a word to the others about you from the looks of it. 

Nakagami: …I knew it. I should’ve targeted him from the beginning.

Nakagami: Motohashi Iori, you will be my salvation. With this I can move forward…!

(Torahime looking downwards)

Torahime: ….Is that so

Torahime: That’s nice… Sensei

Terra: Eh!? Seriously!?

Fumiya: Hm? What’s up?

(Everyone getting together)

Terra: Iori-kun… said he’ll go pay a visit to his family

Sarukawa: Huuh!?

Iori: ...Thought I should properly have a conversation with them for once.

Iori: I made them worry yet I acted awfully about it, I regret that. 

Iori: But I’ll get back home as soon as I talk it out with them.

Amahiko: …I see. I’m happy for you, Iori-san

Rikai: A wise decision, take care.

Iori: Yeah, I’m off then

(Iori hurrying to leave)

Ohse: Please wait a moment

Rikai & Amahiko: ?

Ohse: Doesn’t this smell suspicious?

Fumiya: Yeah, something’s off

Rikai & Amahiko: Eh?

Ohse: Showing remorse and changing his own behavior, is he even capable of such a thing.

Iori: Hey now

Fumiya: No way this dude knows what regret is.

Iori: Come on 

Terra: He’s not built like that

Iori: Yes I am!

Fumiya: Then what about all the chores while you’re gone

Iori: ….! If… if everyone could like, take care of it themselves…

Ohse, Fumiya & Terra: Something is off!!

Iori: Eeeeh!?

(Everyone surrounding Iori)

Iori: Aah… wait.. aaaah, aaaah

(Nakagami looking at the footage from the entry way on his tablet)

Nakagami: ….As you’d expect from these Charismas, nothing gets by them, huh

Nakagami: Hang in there Motohashi-kun…! Shake them off…! And then leave this house! Together with me!

Sarukawa: Io

The six of them: ?

Sarukawa: You decided that yourself?

Iori: …. 

(Iori smiling)

Iori: …Yes, I did.

Sarukawa: I see, then ain’t gon’ stop you no more, go

Iori: …..Yeah

(Iori heading for the door)

Nakagami: "Alright! Motohashi Iori acquired! AAAAAAAAAH!!! YIPPEEEE!!"

Torahime: Please wait right there!

The six of them: !?

Rikai: Tora-san?

Nakagami: "TORAJIROU!?"

Torahime: Iori-san, you can’t go. 

Torahime: I realized from watching everyone living together. Walking your own path isn't for anyone here.

Torahime: All of you! It’s precisely because it’s all seven of you together in this house! That its Charisma!

Terra: Huh? What are you saying?

Nakagami: "WHAT IS THAT GUY SAYING!!!!!"

Torahime: Remember professor Nakagami? I’m his assistant, a spy to be exact.

The seven of them: EEEEEEEEEH!?

Torahime: Iori-san has been tempted by the professor, and he’s been forcing him to cooperate.

The seven of them: Eh?

Nakagami: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHH!!?!?

Nakagami: EEEEH!?!? ☆◆▽◎★◇…?!?

Nakagami: HE SAID IT ALL!! OUT OF NOWHERE!! WHY!! WHAT’S GOTTEN INTO HIM!

Nakagami: WHAT IS HE DOING..!!

(Nakagami flying out of the room)

Nakagami: WAAAAAAAIT!!!

The seven of them: !?

Terra: Ah! It’s that stupid professor!

Sarukawa: Dude seriously popped up

(Nakagami falling down the stairs)

Nakagami: GWAH! AH! DAH! BEH! BOH! GAH!

Nakagami: BWEEEH…!

Torahime: S-SENSEEEI!! Are you okay!?

Nakagami: …! TORAJIROU! Why did you expose everything!

Torahime: Hweh?

Torahime: Ah, Aaaah! AAAAAAAA! Sensei! My bad!

Nakagami: No, don’t give me any my bads

Torahime: I'm deeply sorry!

Nakagami: No, that’s not it, what is the meaning of all this!

Torahime: What is the meaning of all this!

Nakagami: HAAH!?

Torahime: It’s kinda… thinking about someone missing made me subconsciously feel sad….

Nakagami: Hmmmn!?

Nakagami: What are you rattling off about! What’s your intention! Your reasoning is incomprehensible!

Fumiya: Seems like it is as it is.

Ohse: Looks like it is as it is. 

Iori: Persuading Iori-kun and abducting him, that is!

Amahiko: What do we do?

Sarukawa: Fuckin’ obvious! Get his ass!

(Everyone, except Rikai, inflecting violence on Nakagami)

Nakagami: Augh, stop, augh…!

(Torahime trying to stop it)

Torahime: Sensei! Sensei!

Terra: BEAUTY BEAAAAAM!!

Amahiko: SEXY ATTAAACK!!

Nakagami: GWAAAGHH!!!!

Rikai: ….Iori-san, everything is all okay now.

Rikai: We’re sorry for not realizing sooner, it must’ve been hard.

Iori: … Thank you, guys.

Nakagami: Damnit! Are these the limits of a normie! Just one more push was all I needed!

(The six of them smiling)

(Iori smiling)

Iori: … 

The seven of them: Ahahaha!

(Iori heading to Nakagami)

Iori: Okay mister professor, let’s get going

The six of them: Eh?

Iori: Are you hurt? Can you stand?

Nakagami: Eh… no I’m…

Terra: Eh?

Fumiya: Huh?

Ohse: Hm?

Amahiko: Iori-san?

Rikai: Iori-san!

Iori: Hm?

Rikai: ….What are you doing?

Iori: Eh? Servicing the professor

The six of them: WHA-!?!?

Iori: He was all like, going on how he had it rough and needs my salvation.

The six of them: No no no no no no!

Iori: I-it’s okay! Don’t worry! I can perfectly take care of both sides!

Iori: I’ll work nonstop! I’ll be a proper slave! Rest assured!

Terra: What are you on!? He’s the enemy, remember!?

Rikai: Iori-san! Why must you go this far!

Iori: ….

Iori: Because…

Iori: There’ll be a day where everyone separates themselves from me, no?

Rikai: ….Eh?

Iori: In due time no one will need me anymore, because this is a temporary residence.

Iori: It won’t last forever, we’ll have to face the end at some point.

Iori: When that time comes…. what will be left of me?

Iori: Nothing… all will disappear… 

The five of them: … 

Fumiya: Then we keep it going

The five of them: ?

(Fumiya walking to Iori)

Fumiya: We’ll have to face the end at some point? Why? It’s not like I mind staying together forever.

Fumiya: Iori, I’ve got nothing either. You and me together.

 Iori: ….Huh?

(Everyone smiling in a self-deprecating way)

Iori: ….!

Iori: ….Hehe, I see… 

Iori: ………Duly noted.

Iori: So, mister professor, I’m sorry!

Nakagami: EEEEEEH!?

(Iori returning to the others)

Nakagami: No no wait wait wait, wait a second! Motohashi-kun!

Nakagami: There’s only six people over there, right!? The free service on my side pertains to all of society! All of mankind!

Iori: ALL OF MANKIND!?!? Seriously!?!?!?

Fumiya: Oi, you slave

Iori: I-in other words, you mean to say all of the people in this world need me!?

Nakagami: Exactly

Iori: I can’t pass this chance!! I’m going over there!!

The six of them: HEEEEY!!!

(Everyone complaining)

Ohse: Io-kun!

Iori: !?

(Ohse holding up a paper)

Ohse: I’ll put my seal on the slave contract, see?

Iori: SERIOUSLYYY!? I’ll go over there!!!!

Nakagami: OOOOI!!

(Both parties calling out to Iori)

Iori: I’ll go over here! Over here!

Iori: No over here! Here! Here! Here!

Iori: AAAAHN~!

(A mysterious light beaming)

Fumiya: (Charisma charge: Complete)

Iori: (Alas… I yearn to devote oneself…)

Iori: (Serving, serving until I breathed my last…)

Iori: (Pray, for anyone to yield to such desire…) 

Shinjuu break

(Double suicide break)

[candyrain-collective]

EDIT 6-5-2024: we don't engage in syscourse anymore hahaha. tried it, not our cup of tea...but that's ok! this is more just a general system blog now where we talk about our own experiences and listen to others'. also since time is a thing we've aged. body is now 23. 24 alters. woohoo!

ORIGINAL: so it may be time for me to actually make a proper intro post! let's see here...

my name is bibi, and i'm the cohost of the candyrain collective! im 19 but the body is 21. we're a diagnosed osdd-1b traumagenic system of around 15 alters, i wanna say. i don't know if anyone else in the collective would want to blog here, but if they do, they can share stuff in their own time.

our interests are anime, drawing, painting, and writing short stories! we also really like psychology and studied it in college.

if you have any questions about us or just want to interact, feel free to send asks or message! we're always open to new friends and in fact crave them.

some user boxes:

my stance on endogenic is this:

i do believe non-disordered plurality is a phenomenon that people experience. i do not care if endos have a community of their own and in fact am curious about endo experiences, but i really wish endos would stop pushing into system spaces and pushing for demedicalizing CDDs. i also wish endos would stop spreading misinformation around. please.

did/osdd exists. it is real. it is a result of trauma. it affects more of the population than most people think. it is disordered.

i do not support tulpas, trans id/transex/whatever it's called, and radfems. i do not support harassment on either side of syscourse.

whether you're a traumagenic or endogenic system you're free to follow me, and i may follow back. i'd like to dip my toes into both communities, but am strictly anti-misinformation.

2023 was even wilder for me than it was for Cheese lmfao.

I finally got into DMC this year, after being drawn in by Gura and the OST in summer of ‘21. On a family vacation, at that! Finally played 5, beat it, beat it again as Vergil. Played 3, beat it with some help from my partner. Started a Vergil run of 3, and started 1, never finished either, because life kinda got crazy Started playing C.O.D??? Somehow?? Never thought I’d play a C.O.D. game but here I am and I like the campaign for the MW2 remake, I suck ass at it but that’s a me problem lmao Got into therapy, finally, actually working on my problems now and really happy about it Went through several Vtuber avatar designs, finally settled on one I like and I’m almost done with it!!! Just gotta struggle through the hair, hand toggles, and the face! Wow!! Went through endless self-discovery, thought I might be trans(I am in fact not trans, I am Fluid! As far as I know. Still working on that. And other things, but one step at a time!! FINALLY reunited with my two best friends. In person. In another state. One of em, I've known since we were 11 and they moved away when we were 13. I had never hung out with them outside of school, and they introduced me to my other best friend, who came up to my state to meet me in late spring of ‘21, hadn’t seen them since. That friend actually paid for the trip themself, because I went through a god-awful breakdown for a solid 2 weeks and tried to. Isolate myself from everyone I love. But thankfully they talked me out of it and got me back into the group, got me going again when I was at probably my second lowest point since I was a preteen. Got oddly close with another friend while I was there, met the majority of my friend group, and now that friend I got close with is EASILY my third best friend! Not third-best, they are also a best friend and I love them so much?? We hyperfixate on like, all the same things. Dragged them into loving Ghost(band) and they’re dragging me into Scott Pilgrim! Woohoo, here we go! Left my friend group like a month ago because one of them is uh. Not. the best? But only sometimes. They don’t have bad intentions and they’re not outright toxic I don’t think, but I uh. Got kinda sick of their sense of humor. Not always funny, kinda mean to a certain other member. Not always though. But like we can work on it when I go back its fiiiiiiine! Learned communication to a degree, holy shit I hate talking about my problems, oh my god please I don’t need help I’m just a burden anyway(I’m working on it, don’t come at me with support I’ll get there with my family and friends eventually. Not attention-seeking here, I’m building my support group as I go.) Had 13 house emergencies!!!! Will list them! Woo! 1 - water heater leak 2 - gas leak 3 - roof leak again(we had a roof leak in ‘22) 4 - house flood 2 electric boogaloo(house flooded like a week after my partner moved in, in ‘22, before I arrived) 5 - flood 3 6 - roof leak 3 7 - roof leak 4 8 - heater died 9 - bathroom door handle fell off the door for literally no reason 10 - house flood 4 11 - roof leak 5 12 - house flood 5 House Flood 5 caused us to get renovations in the organized housing, and after that, they just straight up moved us to a new house. We had 8 fffffffucking days to get the hell out of our house and into the new one. Like, they actually put the time constraint on us. So funny of them! AND THEN THE NEW ONE DIDN’T HAVE SHUT-OFF VALVES FOR EITHER OF THE HOSE SPIGOTS AND WE HAD TO GET THAT HANDLED BUT THEY DIDN’T HANDLE IT. HELP. BROTHER WE ARE TRYING TO FOLLOW THE RULES. WHY ARE YOU FORBIDDING US. so. 13 - no shut off-valves(technically an ‘emergency’ bc the pipes could freeze and then burst) Got summoned for Jury Duty in my parents’ state! IN THE TIME WHERE WE WEREN’T CERTAIN WHEN THE CONTRACTORS WERE COMING. OR IF WE WOULD BE IN THE SAME HOUSE NEXT WEEK. JESUS CHRIST. But, did also get to go on another family vacation. We got to watch the Perseids! I saw a possum there. Literally loved that so much.

Also got SUUUUPER into Ghost(band) in the last like 3 weeks and I'm head over heels for 99% of their songs that I've listened to?? Hell yeah.

It’s been an intense year of ups and downs, but I’m really determined to turn my life around for the better, now. I’m gonna put my all into actually improving my health, both physical and mental/emotional. I didn’t want that to be like, a new year resolution, it just kinda lined up with the new year.

[lunarsniperwifle]

I havent posted in a while so here's a lil life recap!

I started HRT in august!! Woohoo!! Its been going really well, Im so happy.

I had a lil vacay with my parents after my Tia's wedding in October, read cover to cover a book (Legends & Lattes, very fun very cute, and gay) and its the first book Ive fully read in a few years and cover to cover in about 24 hours in many years. It really sparked a lot of joy and got me back into the reading mood. Plus the story hit like all my boxes (fantasy, coffeeshop au style, sapphic, retired adventurer, past coming to haunt and help).

Next thing I read was She Loves to Cook She Loves to Eat. SO. GOOD. i adore them, i cant wait for more (i think i saw the author is on break atm which of course is fine take care of yourself!!). Im loving where its going, that theyre older women, that theyre falling/have fallen for eachother but dont know how to bring it up and are hesitant BUT working towards taking the next step together. I cant wait for them to communicate, and kiss.

I also got into Im In Love With The Villainess and omg. I adore it so much. I watched when it had like 4 eps out, watched em all. And then immediately bought all the light novels, manga, and claires POV LN that were out. And then proceeded to read all core/main LNs in less than a week. Then Claires then the manga. I adore it, I fell in love with this story so fast and stayed up nightly reading almost one LN a day for a week. I think the 2nd one is my fave, and it makes me so excited for the anime and for the manga to get translated and released. I am dying for the 2nd one from Claires POV as well (im sure i could maybe find it online same with the manga since thats up to the looks like Lily/Yu arc now in japan) but i kinda wanna wait for the print to come out so i can physically have and read it like the others. Rae and Claire's story means so much to me, and especially Inori-san's writing in general and being serious about certain topics and actually diving into them. I hopw with all my heart it continues to be animated, i have a feeling we'll wind with the scales of love arc for season 1 and tease vacation arc for start of 2 (and probably go through to the end of LN 2 for season 2 mayhap?) It deserves to have the entire story told through animation honestly.

I also got the bloom into you manga (got the 1st one to read and see if id like it and shocker i do so i have the rest of the manga, LNs, and manga anthology on the way and might get the bluray of the anime eventually to watch). Ive really liked the 1st volume so far, it has me excited to find out how the story and relationship develops! Also wow! It was very fast at getting into the love feelings i was kinda surprised (pleasantly)

And then when im done with that have the Whisper Me a Love Song in my sights for the next yuri story to dive into and adore.

Its been a wonderful time. Im real happy :3

Operation Atlantis Notes - "Sango" (Chapter 8)

Chapter 8! We're only 2 chapters away from the end of part 1 guys, can you believe it? The end of part 1 is in 2 chapters! Woohoo! I am so happy about this information. The end of part 1! Just two chapters away, oh wo—

So, this chapter was pretty fun to write. I finally feel like I'm starting to hit my stride with these, so hopefully that means I can get them out faster (or not, because Side Order busted into my house and gave me a million plot ideas because of course it did). As you probably know from reading the chapter, this one is another transition (like last chapter... and chapter 6... and chapter 4). Aka, there's a hefty chunk of filler and not much major plot stuff going on, but hey. You need build up for plot points to actually work. And besides, it's pretty fun.

Something I really enjoyed about this chapter compared to the similar ones I've written, though, is the foreshadowing. As you probably could've guessed, there's some big and juicy stuff coming up in Chapter 9. Look forward to that whenever it comes out (which may be a while because again, Side Order busted into my house with a million plot ideas).

Opening poem: I like this one. It's pretty simple, and sweet. The flower metaphor also works well with later in the chapter. Not much to say about this one, it's just about Eight's journey as a whole and not anything specific.

The Interview: Oh look, it's Lila again. Not much to say about this particular scene. As you could've guessed, I really like reusing characters when I can because it gives more depth and dimension to them instead of them only appearing like, in one specific set of circumstances. Giving them different opinions helps too! Anyways, onto something more substantial.

Eight, Three, and the Calamari Inkantation: Oh no, it's my greatest weakness—cute agent 24 scenes! So yeah, I love this scene. Eight and Three are so absurdly, astronomically different from each other, and yet here they are, connecting over a simple song. The symbolism of the Inkantation in general is something I really love, because art really does hold the power to connect people. You guys are all connected to me through this fic, after all! Three singing it isn't only just about giving Eight the rest of the lyrics, it's an expression of vulnerability. Three is self-conscious about her singing, but she sings it anyways. Why? Because she wants to connect with Eight. And at the end of the day, what is connection but not continued moments of mutual vulnerability?

Turfing!: Woot woot, it's Three beating people up time! Fun fact, I wrote part of this scene in my crowded high school cafeteria. You think I would learn from this mistake, but I'm typing this right now in my crowded high school cafeteria. Anyways, I thought incorporating Three's confusion about Splatoon 2 mechanics added a little spice to this scene. Also, I had to reference the orange-blue color palette just because. You know, because it's the classic colors of the first game, and because of Inner Agent 3... I'm sure the latter won't be relevant later :).

Investigating at the Library: These were a sweet couple of scenes to write. I love Iso Padre, especially when he shows his caring side. I imagine his hugs are very pleasant due to having multiple arms. Anyways, it was interesting to write Eight's reaction learning about Inkling-Octarian history. Because she doesn't remember it, she really doesn't empathize with it in the way she should. The way I see it, it's like learning about history that happened before you were born versus what you actually remember. Broad overviews of history are essential to get the context, but you can only understand the emotions through more specific accounts.

The Void of Eight's Past: Okay, this isn't a scene technically, but a paragraph, but I wanted to highlight (it's right at the end of the library scene, and begins with "Eight grabbed it."). And well, that's because my beta really liked it, and looking back on it, I do as well. There's a sort of horror to Eight's amnesia that I've seen crop up in several fics—this idea of not knowing who you are, of your memories, which are everything that makes you you, being stripped from you. I absolutely adore it, and I wanted to explore it here. My beta also told me that's how they feel being mixed sometimes, which I think is pretty cool! I'm not so I didn't necessarily write it with that in mind, but I'm glad they connected with that! Overall, I think it shows how we're more similar than different... that kinda got off topic.

Fates and Daffodils: One of my favorite things about the market scene was inserting my Octarian headcanons, particularly about the Fates. I really like the concept of the three of them and I can't wait to weave their symbolism into the rest of the fic. With Haisho, who represents growth, I felt it fitting to tie her to plants. Flowers in particular are connected to her because their blooms represent the beauty that can come from growth. With that in mind, of course I had to put in some flower symbolism. As mentioned in the fic, daffodils are one of the first flowers of spring—which for Eight, represents the beginning of her healing after the "winter" of losing her memories. What will happen next? Who knows.

Selfie at Central Park: This scene. THIS SCENE!!! I'm gonna be real with you guys, this is one of my favorite scenes of Eight and Three interacting that I've written so far. There's just something so tender and vulnerable about it, but at the same time, withdrawn. It strikes a great balance, I think, of both the vulnerability and awkwardness present in Three and Eight's relationship at this time. They're both starting to see each other in a different life—Three is starting to see Eight as more than a generic enemy of her people (and maybe even a friend shhh), and Eight is realizing that despite how she acts sometimes, Three is ultimately not as scary as Eight thinks them. The selfie, in fact, not only serves as a release of tension, but also a form of symbolism. This is one of the first times Three and Eight truly connect... what will mean in the future?

Mundane (Or Ominous) News?: Not much to say about this scene other than it will be probably be a fun one to reread once chapter 9 comes out. Yeah, it's foreshadowing. What could it mean? Who knows? (I know). I really love playing up the kinda unsettling imagery surrounding Eight's memory loss, so I'm glad I got to put that here.

And there you go, that's chapter 8! As you probably could've guessed, chapter 9 is a big one. It's the penultimate chapter of part 1, after all, so it makes sense. I'm really looking forward to writing it! However... Side Order busted into my house and gave me fic ideas, because of course we can't have nice things. Look, I absolutely love alternate realities that affect people not physically but psychologically (is a Persona fan) okay! Of course I came up with plot ideas. The main one I have in mind is Monochrome Malaise, which is sorta-rewrite that fixes some issues I had with Side Order. It's very fun and I can't wait to get into writing it! However, I also really want to get part 1 of this thing finally fully OUT and I can't do that working on an entirely separate project, so... Yeah. Who knows what'll do. Whatever happens, I'll let you guys know. No matter how long we go between updates, I'll never abandon this fic!

[cavefairy]

woohoo ocs!!!

20. do any of your ocs sing? (if they do, care to share more details)

24. which one of ur ocs would you meet and why?

50. talk about anything you want about your ocs!!

idk if i did this right but whatevs lol <33

im gonna bite you <3 i am digging out my old sketchbooks for this get ready bc the ones on my post from the other day arent the only ones gonna get mentioned 19: my baby Oceanis !! shes a shark, and one of my very first ocs i made on pony town. ive only ever drawn her once, but i regularly use the skin whenever i play pt :D (art acquired from my old instagram thats why the quality is shit 👍 also eee pony town skin, im still very proud of how she turned out)

20: yes ! he would never admit it, but Micah sings !! he doesnt do it often, as it brings back memories from when he was alive, but not all of them are good memories... (Micah is a ghost :3 another pony town skin ehe)

3. Do you cheat when your sims gain weight? Absolutely not. For me, I like to play the sims as realistic as possible and make my sims as realistic as possible (while still having the goofiness of the sims of course) and none of my sims that I create and/or play with are made to fit a specific standard. All of my sims are beautiful in their own unique way 🥰

5. Favorite mod? Woohoo Wellness and Pregnancy Overhaul - It adds so much realism and I adore every aspect of this mod

Hello friend, I have some numbers for you <3

7, 16, 22, 24, 36 and 55

wahey woohoo! my blorbos

7 would they build a pillow fort just because?

pearl and marina would build a pillow fort for every occasion ever. movie night? pillow fort. bad splatfest? pillow fort. *good* splatfest? oh man they’re building a pillow fort. any excuse to build one and cuddle in it they’re taking. 

deep cut pillow forts are probably initiated most by frye, but big man absolutely helps. once it’s done they pull shiver in and a movie or gaming quickly follows. they probably use couch cushions for theirs, that and big blankets and pillows. they make lots of room for big man and or sleep on top of him if it’s late enough at night

(this got long! the rest are under the read more :3)

16 can they stay up all night just talking?

pearl and marina can and have! this was a common occurrence when they were both younger. marina couldn’t sleep so pearl came in and kept her company either until marina fell asleep on her or the sun came up, whichever came first :) now they stay up and talk almost every night til they fall asleep in each other’s arms because marina can’t sleep alone.

i think frye and big man are much more “night owl” people than shiver, so they try their hardest to get her to stay up with them… only for poor shivvy to fall asleep in the cuddle pile not long after they start talking. frye and big man absolutely can though 

22 what reminds each of their partner?

every time pearl sees a fancy new pair of headphones or high-end keyboard or piano, she goes “oh i should get that for reena, she’d love that”. marina thinks about pearl every time she sees another one of her shirts disappear or a shiny thing in the store or even new crowns. 

frye thinks of shiver when she sees sharks, or the moon, or the sea, and she thinks of big man when she lays under a comfortable blanket. big man thinks of frye whenever there’s a beautiful sunset and shiver when he has a cold drink. shiver thinks of frye on cold days, where it’d be just so nice to hug her and steal her warmth, and big man when she hears 

24 who’s most likely to give the other a massage?

whenever marina has a bad day you bet pearlie is bringing her to the bed to massage her back and help her get all that tension out. plus, pressure stim for marina!

big man is very good at giving massages. whenever shiver says her whole body is soooo tense because of the splatfest he sets her on the couch and massages her- sometimes he gets frye in on it too. part of it is just because she wants to spend time with her partners before they all go to sleep. 

36 who’s most likely to fire up the stove at 2 am cause their partner’s hungry? 

pearl absolutely. apologies (not really) for the moms propaganda, but this is especially true while marina is expecting. every single craving, no matter what or when it is, pearl made absolutely sure marina got it. outside of moms propaganda… still pearl. she’s a good cook and especially when they were both younger she saw marina up at 2am and went “oh! she can’t sleep and she’s hungry? time to teach her to make a food.” 

marina is good at making octarian food, though. just not at 2 am. she’s sleepy.

frye stress bakes, which i’m unabashedly stealing from a friend, but i also think she stress bakes when someone else is stressed. does she think shiver and big man need a late night cake? well she’s already got all the ingredients out and the oven is preheating. 

shiver’s the one who actually makes a big filling meal late at night though. 

55 do they like stargazing or cloud watching? 

pearl and marina go up to mount nantai every year on the day they met to go look at the stars. it’s where they go to make plans for the future, like starting off the hook or taking the idol job or even getting married.

deep cut also likes to lay up on the roof of their home and look up at the sky. shiver points out what she sees in the clouds, frye talks about ideas she has for things to do, and big man listens to them both talk. sometimes he pitches in, but shiv and frye agree: he’s a very good listener.

So, my name is Anahí, i am 24 years old, and i´m studying Social Communications at University. The subject that i´m studying is Economic History. Right now i am at the end of the semester and i feel like it lasted a thousand of years. And i have to redo this subject for next year. But now i am just studying on my own way. My goal in doing this challenge is being consistent on my studying schedule and on mantaining a studyblr.

Today, i am grateful for my family.

Round 5 ROS

COULSON Minor: n/a Major:  Sudden Wedding. Your sim can’t wait any longer. Pick a single sim and get them married within one rotation. They may have a prior relationship with their chosen spouse, or they can start out as strangers.

I was happy to leave Meda and Jeremy unmarried, but ROS had other ideas. I got on board with it, though; I think it makes sense that Jeremy would be ready to make a more formal commitment to Meda now that he’s decided to settle down in Panorama.

FUENTES-HADDAD Minor: Errands. Visit four community lots within 24 sim-hours.

Nadya fetched water from the Founders’ Square well, bought groceries from Campbell Farm, spoke with Cintia Morales at Cintia’s Handmade, and worked for a few hours at her and Walter’s business, Fuentes Hardware.

Major: Pregnant. Whether through risky woohoo or actively trying, your sim becomes pregnant.

Nadya and Walter love their children but don’t want more. Nadya terminated her unplanned pregnancy with Meda’s help.

MORALES I Minor: Cool Parent. Your sim attempts to befriend three of their child’s friends.

There are always a million things happening at the Morales household, so it’s challenging to find time to work on their ROS. Cintia did her best to befriend a few of Nancy’s friends, but her only opportunity to try was at their joint birthday party, and I didn’t get any good pics. Consider this ROS failed.

Major: Nothing Major. Life goes on as normal.

CAMPBELL-CHEN Minor: New Hobby. Over the next three rotations, have your sim earn a gold skill badge in a new hobby.

Peter took up fishing—or rather, Phoebe forced him to take up fishing because she couldn’t stand having him laying around the house any longer. To his surprise, he’s been enjoying it. It’s not technically a “new” hobby, though, as Peter did some fishing as a teen and already had a bronze badge.

Major: Nothing Major. Life goes on as normal.

CAMPBELL Minor: Write a Novel. Your sim has been hit by the writing muse and is itching to start a novel.

Is Anna beginning to emerge from her stupor? She’s not exactly planning on writing a novel (how would it get published in post-apocalyptic Panorama, anyway?), but we’ll see where her scribbling takes her.

Major: Nothing Major. Life goes on as normal.

MORALES II Minor: n/a Major: n/a

I played this household only for a partial round (Yesenia and Leonor moved out of their parents’ house on day three out of four), so I didn’t roll an ROS for them.

* * * * *

Some more thoughts: I was and am excited to play through the scenarios in my ROS list, but it’s been hard to focus on completing them when there’s so much else going on in almost all of my households. Trying to remember to hit all the story beats AND fulfill a random scenario at the same time made playing my game a little more stressful than fun at times during round 5. Going forward, I think I’ll roll ROS only for families that I’m not sure what to do with, or that don’t otherwise have a ton going on.
