yknow i wonder HOW airy found out about bryce having thalassophobia. cus the existence of the database implies that, with the computer, airy had SOME sort of access to information about the contestants, and with a record of charlotte having been briefly jailed and the fact that hes able to make a site, id imagine it probably has to do with some sort of access to earths internet. even with the more confusing things that he found, like where people lived, they can be explained as the computer simply saying a persons location, maybe? and the pictures i simply imagine are whatever record anywhere he could find of them. still though, its mildly confusing. but bryces thalassophobia is the MOST confusing thing for him to know about any of the contestants, especially since airy seems to not read other peoples fears well, so even if he couldve somehow seen the contestants in their lives somehow before he brought them, theres no way he wouldve picked up on bryce not only having a fear, but i dont think airy would pick up on it being a phobia more specifically. but then how would he have found out about it? did bryce post about it somewhere? mention it somewhere? how much DOES the computer have access to things? i dont have answers to these questions but i sure think about it a lot
#hfjone#smth thats also intrigued me is that airy notes taylors separated parents but not bryces dead sister#which i feel like points to what he considers important details. but im not exactly sure what that actually is#like when ppl make custom pages i notice they often include additional notes a LOT but airy actually seems to scarely make those notes#but i couldnt say what it is that he deems important enough to add#idk!!! i just think the plane database is SUPER interesting and its implications confound me#(then again maybe he didnt note bryces sister being dead because he didnt know?#but id imagine that would be a lot easier to find information on than bryce being thalassophobic#since i think you can find public records for those sorts of things)#but like.. why DOES airy deem it important enough to include#bc its not like he takes it into account . given ep 6

āAmore et Timoreā - King Fernando I āEl Animosoā
#i really like the emotion of the first sketch but i dont think it looks enough like him#i think my favorite part is always when i start painting stuff on top of the line art#bcs i dont like doing ultra clean lineart anymore if im just gonna paint over it#and painting over it means i can fix things i couldnt really get right in the lineart#its always atill crazy for me to see the steps like this#and i like this one bcs i saved a pic in the middle of painting which is really interesting to get to see#i should really do timelapses but i always forget to set them so#i really struggled w a lot of this so im glad it turned out well#i think once i get to the rendering stage its smooth sailing#lineart is probably the worst part bcs the sketch can be iffy but then i actually have to try and fix things#but as i said its good when i get to the painting stage bcs i can just paint over anything i didn like#for example: his nose and eyes. i struggled w so badly but painting them? so good!!!#i didnt care about the fabric in this unfortunately#i wanna learn more about it so i can give him super intricate detailed clothing bcs i think hed eear that#but i always paint the face first and then remember oh yeah theres clothes too oops#hehehehe anyways thank you for all yeh compliments on the hands. it pleases me bcs theyre in fact MY hands#idk i find it funny whenever people compliment me on poses and stuff#especially hands. bcs the first process of a drawinf for me is taking pose reference of myself#and i really wanted to do a portrsit with hands so i took a lot of hand centered pics so im glad it worked out#okay now hopefully i can mske a seb version of this š„ŗš„ŗ#so i can drop his name and motto lote on you guys too#my issue is i put more work into my posts and art than i do school š#like no no i cant just make a little lore post for their mottos and nicknames#I MUST PAINT SOMETHING! okay catie....#catie.rambling.txt

šæāļø davejade headcanons
sorry for leaving you guys waiting on this for like a week lol i kept being like ātomorrow for sureā but falling asleep but anyway here it is. i might add more to this if i think if anything but reblogs might not reflect the up to date source version so you can always find it here
most of these are pointing out stuff thats basically canon anyway but whatever lol. basically canon headcanons
dave tries to impress jade to get her attention because he likes her
this ones for you *misses hoop by 5 feet*
he doesnt mind jadeās inane riddles honestly. he isnāt perturbed by how she just knows things like rose is, because he doesnt think into it too far. he trusts her
he spends a lot of time indulging in her interests and showers her in his music and poetry
they draw things for each other a lot <3 jade has the pictionary modus and seems pretty good at drawing and of course dave sent her sbahj as furries in the mail. sending jpegs over the internet is BABY NONSENSE. real boys send their childhood friend/crush pictures they drew for them through the INTERNATIONAL POSTAL SYSTEM to an unspecified island in the middle of nowhere, pacific ocean that gets packages dropped by plane so the recipient can tangibly hold it and hang it in their room
actually i was going through the commentary and hussie addresses it as such:
āAlso notice her SBaHJ furry poster, which was clearly a very thoughtful gift from Daveā
aww
jade would give dave a "cool" plushie of a tiger or something nd he keeps it on his desk . frootās beautiful idea
he loves her plushie sensibilities. so much less unnerving than his broās phallic puppets. they're still soft but no cognitive dissonance this time about the softness coming from foam puppet ass hoorayyy
theyre still reading homestuck on act 4 but they understood them instantly
jade humors daveās ironic cool facade because it makes dave feel more comfortable without feeling too exposed, but itās because of this that he feels like he can open up to her because she isnt prying. (im still not over the smile here btw. only jade could make dave smile after a fucked evening where he spilled juice on his turntables and accidentally skewered an innocent crow with his sword and broke his window this mf is TYPING. also getting a bit of joy out of the fact that the only visible suit on his cards-themed bedcover in this panel is a heart)
but he knows that jade is not unaware of what he's hiding. couldnt even refute her lol
from the knightās perspective, itās āiām not as [blank] as i appear. i want you know that about me if i know you well and trust you, or i DONāT want you to know that about me if i DONāT know you well. the reason is that i want to know that i can trust you to avoid turning my insecurity into a Whole Thingā
basically she allows dave to take initiative when HE feels comfortable and confident in sharing the things heās self-conscious about. this really helps him be comfortable and form a strong bond with her
dave would wrap his arms around her to āironicallyā imitate a pair of tangle buddy squiddles (while actually concealing genuine affection basically unbeknownst to himself) but he winds up looking just a little too into it for just an āironicā bit yallā¦ā¦
jade is slower to realize her deeper feelings since she shows love to everyone (so long as theyre deserving of it!!!) it just hits her one day that she actually Likes him in a special way, while for dave it is more dynamic and gradual but very on the downlow, expressed in creative acts and services
once dave actually recognizes heās really caught feelings for her down the line, dave and jade happily do the tangle buddies hug all the time. its like their handshake. its their weird couple thing
these two when together as a unit they do not give a shit about what other people think of them
this shit lol:
Creative Fucking Powerhouse the two of them
davejade ass song to me
jade is quite spacey and super appreciates daveās level-headedness and steady pragmatism while at the same time not being a rigid stick in the mud about it. for example when they were acting as each othersā server players dave was advising her but it was appreciated by jade
sorry its just literally socionics duality LITERALLY THIS IS THEMMM (also i spent WAY too much time making these graphics and integrating texts from multiple sources please appreciate it)
fittingly with that, as ouroborista writes about the opposite space-time aspect dichotomy,
Space and Time are the fundamental Aspect pair. Their job is to make shit take place. To create novelty. Between them they span not only all of existence but also the inseparable twin approaches of any creative project. Space goes for breadth, for ideas, for expansive, holistic input, while Time goes for needlepoint focus and a rapid-turnover ability to pull through on the prompt. Thereās a reason why these are the two Aspects necessary for any successful session of SBURB.
jade is literally always having a little giggle about him. dave is a funny guy. lame court jester ass boyfriend
heād draw his post-ironic fursona and show it to her with the usual deadpan expression on his face, eyes obscured by his shades. but jade will look at it and when he sees her smile and laugh it makes it all worth it. his cheeks feel warm and heāll smile slightly like āheh hehā. dave the type to smile like an idiot over anything jade does like his mouth keeps making a thin line and hes trying to fight it but . Jade
dave thought jade looked absolutely stunning in her 3 in the morning dress his mouth probably stupidly hung open the tiniest amount seeing her after swapping into it
of course she only wears it for what she considers "very special occasions"ā¦..spending time with dave seemed to be a very special occasion :)
jade think dave looks sharp in his suits!!
imagine jade adjusting daves crooked bowtie and lapel and his palms start to sweat and he darts his eyes from behind his shades and chews the inside of his cheek she making him nervous bro šÆ
jade is definitely the teaser and dave is the teased. still i dont think jade teases dave as much as john and rose which is why he feels more comfortable opening up to her about his shit. her teasings are much lighter and inconsequential
despite how funny and informal he is dave is a classy well-put-together romantic. he is responsible and harmonious in how he choses to present himself. remember when he got secondhand embarrassment from rose when she was drunk before her date with kanaya and he suggested to her and kanaya that the two reschedule? ā¦ heād NEVER do something like that. sober. suit is ON. hair is neatly combed. he is right on time, not too early not too late, and his first words are āyo whats upā
dave has this designated driver energy about him
after dogtiering jadeās dog ears can perk and flatten, adding even more expressiveness
jade has so many hobbies and interests i think sheād get dave into horticulture somehow unironically
theyre both the kinda mf to ask āwould you still love me if i were a wormā
daveās hands are warm
jadeās skin can be cool to the touch in some places like the back of her arms or shoulders and dave places his hands there to warm them. or by rubbing them or something
idk just some associations space is cool and time is warm to me. the vaccuum of space is cold and time is associated with gears which are associated with generating heat and daveās classical element is fire and jadeās is earth and her planet is initially covered in snow and daves is covered in lava idkā¦. just makes symbolic sense i guess but its also cute in its own right
dave would love going to the beach with jade on earth c cause the ocean is so boob i mean boob i mean boob i m,ean boob i mean SHIT . blue. blue
this Fucking animation bro
she infodumps about science and he sits his ass down to listen
jade does this (excuse the fact that the url is roselalonde)

Invitation to talk about Sayuri and Nymie?
:D CAN OF WORMS: OPENED!! i'll tell u abt how they got found as Jedi
ok so Sayuri is one of the students that doesn't rlly go home bc there isn't much to go back to. Basically her parents were Rebellion pilots (or one was a pilot the other a mechanic. kinda unsure) but were both killed in action against the Empire abt 3-4ABY ish. obvs the Rebellion couldn't look after a 7-8yo while fighting the Empire
so the remainder of the squad manage to get her back to her parents' home village/ where she was born. so having like Everything change all at once leaves her pretty ?? and gives her some serious trusting-her-environment issues. her coolgirl "i dont care" persona is very much a result of this bc she's worried abt getting too comfy in smthn. (which is at odds w the OTHER issue she got from this event which is "deathly afraid of flying" an issue not helped if Master "traffic laws are just guidelines" Skywalker is piloting. but she tries 2 act like shes fine)
this is gonna get kinda long so im gonna smack some unposted art here and then go into a readmore
anyway fast forwarding to when Sayuri's abt 13 (roughly 9aby) she's visiting her parent's old squadron on a New Republic bc they'd all come visit whenever she could and after the Empire's fall they did a lot more pick her up and fly her to a base to ALL see her. and they're like omg Sayuri you came at the PERFECT time bc this rlly amazing pilot war hero who's also some like. mystical whatever is here!! he's on his way to some magic place we heard. maybe u can meet him!! which sayuri meets w her usual whatever bc she's not that gassed abt war heroes.
very worth noting that the squad's probably all seen her move shit with her mind, but theyre like oh you know how it is with teenage girls. the "nobody knows what a jedi is" + "the empire existed for a decent bit of her childhood" thing has kept anyone from being like yeahh sayuri should like. talk to someone abt this.
anyway she goes along when the squad are like c'mon let's see if we can see him. ok the only way i can describe this is you know the spiderverse like... spidey-sense recognition thing? that's basically what happens LOL Luke and Sayuri both have a FORCE USER RECOGNISED?? moment and Luke then makes a beeline for her then realises oh shit tiny teenager not jedi. would you LIKE to be a jedi?? and sayuri who hates her village and is feeling the strongest emotional connection she's felt in forever w this stranger she met 2 seconds ago is like okay fuckin sure yeah. and woo jedi!!
i posted my unposted nymie art yesterday but likkeeee pretend theres some here <3
So Sayuri falls into the "one of the Jedi found them thru the force or by chance" category of students who get found. However Nymie very much falls into the second category, which is "CAN SOMEONE DEAL WITH THIS WEIRD SUPERPOWERED CHILD FOR US????"
So 2 things about Nymie: 1. like i've said before, she's from a very rich high class pantoran family. super stuck up, mostly raised by nannies & tutors, but somehow Nymie just didn't get the stuck-up genes like all her (4!!) siblings who are just obsessed w their social standing etc and is instead just :D all the time. 2. her proficiency ig is the living force esp in the 'good at connecting to animals' way (which I think means I legally need to draw her w Ezra).
so the former often led her to escaping her family's stuffy parties and galas or whatever (usually to whoever's house it is' garden or somewhere she wasnt meant to be) to find something interesting. usually a pet <3 one particular time when she was 9 she was following her Pet Sense but couldnt find anything in the house. so she kinda just reached out more and long story short thats how Nymie managed to call this hugemassive beast (i'd tell u what it was if i knew pantoran animals LOL) out of the nearby countryside to her. massively distressing for everyone, all these rich ppl were like "OH MY GOD I NEARLY DIED" (it didnt attack anyone). very funny exciting time for Nymie who was enjoying this new beastie friend til animal control showed up. saddening. everyone is confused bc HOW did that happen
a dude old (and cool) enough to have seen more than one jedi in their heyday (+ idk uni researcher knows his shit) noticed what happened w it going straight to Nymie and overheard her account and realised what happened and was like hi nymie's parents. i think u need to get into contact w the new republic bc thats a jedi right there (which they take and go oo social climbing. we have a jedi child people will think we're cooler. bc theyre assholes)
and yeah im losing steam now but luke shows up and she joins the academyyay!
#i tried to NOT go on a 2000 hour ted talk#bc im pretty sure i could give a solid 5k of meta on top of any explanations of abt... 95% of my OCs lolll#which does mean this comes off as a lil messy but hey#sayuri ireshla#nymie#oc#original characters#luke's students

Hey I was thinking about joining your patreon but couldnt decide what tier, do you post your more kinky shit on all tiers or just the higher ones? Also how kinky does it get? Are you comfortable revealing the fetishes you draw?
Sure! You'll get a ton of stuff just at the $3 tier. Most of it is gag/bondage-focused, like this or this.
At the $12 tier things get a little more out there. More about that on this post. tl;dr: Lots of self-insert stuff, with super-huge gags, super-huge boobs, humiliation and general weirdness.
You'll also get to vote in character polls, and you'll get frequent WIPs and some other fun things. On the main page you can find bulleted info about the individual tiers, plus a more detailed explanation in the "About" tab.
I would love it if you joined! Always happy to see someone new pop in ā every bit of support goes a long way for me.
Either way, I appreciate your interest!

finally finished tracing out the skirt embroidery!
there was a lot of adjusting i had to do to this to make it symmetrical and also just... make sense (seriously look at the original skirt for a few seconds and you'll start seeing all the places where its.... weird) but im super happy with my results! im planning on using this (or at least elements of it) on the rest of the costume to tie the thing together!
in the end, i couldnt get the lower flower to come out in a way i liked that also felt cohesive with the rest of the design, so i left it off, but i think its just as good without! you can see my first attempt at it in one of the templates below the cut though, if youre interested!
this was fun! idk if anyone other than me will find use in this, but it was worth it anyway,i learnt a lot about using the path tool in the process of making this & already have some future plans for the things i picked up on.
ā versions with thicker lines and each element separated out into its own template ā
thicker lines!
The border- this repeats perfectly, just match it center to center
The main flower
The upper flower
The Tulips! i included both directions here
#its red because. i worked in red and could NOT b bothered to change it#i was just going to transfer this with carbon paper and a tracing wheel. maybe pricked holes and chalk#we arent fancy over here#sewing#pattern making#embroidery#template#digital design#cosplay#western#sorta. it gave ME western vibes though the denim may have impacted this. shrugs#Sheriff ginny gonna b so cool#i also elected to keep the border a perfect rotation and not asymmetrical like the original bc that made sense to me#i coulda changed the joining element to be shorter i suppose but i like the swoop of it#(yeah look at that in particular. one is literally just a line)

ā¢ in the early stages of the relationship he took cooking classes to get better and while hes not a professional, he can make you some pretty good homemade meals
ā¢ in return, you like to exercise your hobby for baking and make him a lot of sweet treats
ā¢ he loves watching competitive baking/cooking shows and no one can tell me otherwise

ā¢ heāll 100% take you to a restaurant, fancy or otherwise, if you want him to
ā¢ most of the time theyre diners or small businesses
ā¢ peter knows what having a panic attack is like so he for sure will help you out and have techniques and methods for you to try when youāre having one yourself
ā¢ this is inspired by @underoospeterparker wonderful period comfort fic that i requested and its that he will literally take care of Everything
ā¢ heāll put a pad in your underwear for you so itās all ready to go when you need it
ā¢ heāll warm up a heating pad as soon as you ask
ā¢ buys you your favorite snacks and some extra pads or tampons (or whatever you use) when you start your period
ā¢ peter is like a human furnace so you like to lay on top of him like heās a living heating pad for your tummy ā he enjoys it very much

ā¢ he never asks what you talk about in therapy but you usually tell him anyway
ā¢ there arent really any secrets between the two of you
ā¢ there might have been some things neither of you wanted to talk about at first but eventually you both share them with one another
ā¢ peter is actually really funny and always tries to make you laugh
ā¢ playing against you is the only time he feels like heās good at basketball š
ā¢ āyouāre the one who didnt get into the nba!ā
ā¢ āat least im tall enough to qualify!ā
ā¢ he pokes fun at your short stature whenever he can
ā¢ peter is 6ft tall so he towers over you
ā¢ as hot as he thinks you look when youāre wearing his clothes he also finds it hilarious because theyre so long on you
ā¢ shirts? they reach your knees
ā¢ pants? always have to be rolled up at your hip otherwise youāll step on the fabric at the bottom and trip yourself (you did this once and peter was very concerned but also couldnt stop laughing)
ā¢ he doesnt look after himself the way you think he should, so youāre always paying attention and making sure heās eating/hydrating when he needs to and getting enough sleep
ā¢ i feel like one year for halloween you make him dress like spiderman because they have the same name and you dress as mary jane and do the iconic upside down spiderman kiss
ā¢ youāve basically christened every single room in his apartment
ā¢ he might not like every single hobby you have or everything you have an interest in but heāll always participate if you ask and you do the same for him
ā¢ you own skin safe markers and sometimes when you get bored you like to color in his tattoos. he actually really enjoys it and finds it relaxing
ā¢ speaking of tattoos
ā¢ when he realizes that youāre the one for him and that he wants to be with you for the rest of his life, he gets a tattoo of your initials on his arm
ā¢ when you find out about the tattoo you immediately book an appointment for yourself so you can get his initials tattooed on your hip or maybe your wrist
ā¢ when he sees it for the first time he thinks its so sexy that you have his initials permanently on your skin that he makes you orgasm like 5 times
ā¢ he knows you love homemade personal care products (soap, bath bombs, things like that) and will buy them for you all the time
ā¢ you always call him on your way home from work or whatever it is your doing that day and if youāre stressed heāll set up a relaxing bath for you for when you get home
ā¢ and he goes all out
ā¢ he goes through your stash of products and even has new ones ready to add to your collection, a nice lavender bath bomb, some rose petals, ect
ā¢ he sets up a speaker to play relaxing music and even puts a small table next to the tub thats got some of your favorite snacks on it along with a bottle of water
ā¢ he loves to cuddle
ā¢ he is literally so needy when it comes to you and just wants any kind of affection he can get from you

My version of Linda Stein! Was very fun looking through different 1930s outfits for her!
(More HCs of her and Henry down below!)
-Lindaās full name is Rosalinda Guinto Panillo and sheās Filipino! (Like me tehee)
-Likes to paint for fun but is mostly interested and skilled in making clothes and embroidery.
-Her passion and skill eventually lands her a job at a big fashion company in Hollywood and she works with a lot of wealthy people and stars for either costumes to everyday wear to special occasions. She ends up becoming more socialable because of this as she learns to deal with picky divas to getting know and close to nicer customers.
-Henry became interested in her with how sweet and encouraging she was with him. As well as her bluntness. Despite her demeanor, she can be blunt at times, which Henry appreciates and finds funny.
-One example being early on in their friendship, Henry asked for her a opinion on a art piece, expecting her to just compliment it as most of his friends would, until she started asking āwhy did one of the hand he drew looked weirdā and āwhy did it the whole piece look off center?ā Henry started laughing and appreciated her honest criticism.
-Linda has definitely modeled for Henry and gives him inspiration and advice on what clothes his subjects should wear in his work.
- Linda has had many suitors try to peruse her but they were all bit too forward for her, while Henry was a genuine friend first, and asked her out very formally, with a *bit* of nervous stuttering, when she was ready.
-Henry fell for hard for her and didnāt realize it till later in their friendship. He was good with just being friends until he couldnāt stop thinking about her to the point he couldnt draw anything but her. He didnāt realize how much of a romantic he was until he met Linda.
-Henry comes from a nice family that were well off enough as well as supportive of Henryās art skills to let him peruse an art career. Idk why I feel like heās either a only child or has a older brother that is way older than him which he loves but not super close with.
-Linda and her family immigrated from the Philippines to California when she was a young kid and later on, they moved to New York. They all slowly moved back to California and Linda is last to join them with Henry. Has three sisters and is the second eldest.
#my art#bendy#bendy and the ink machine#bendy and the dark revival#batim#batdr#henry stein#Linda Stein#while I was creating her I didnāt realize till later that sheās kinda like Sable from animal crossing djdj#also the outfit was fun to draw#THE COLORS FOR IT ON THE OTHER HAND DJJDJS TOOK FOREVER#went though the entire rainbow for her hdhdhdhd#as well as sent it to my friend gc and they liked the yellow and orange š#1930s#vintage style#illustration

duncan is simultaneously the funniest fucking guy and super tragic to me. i think hes The Worst Ever because its a way of acting out against his dad. funniest shit ever and devastating. Everything about duncney as a whole leaves me in hysterics and also clutching my chest crying punching holes into the walls. he is killer phoebe bridgers to me. can the killer in him tame the fire in (various romantic partners he swore were the one then broke up with 2 days later). or is there nothing left to do for them. hes sick of the chase but hes hungry for blood. and theres nothing he can do. hes a dog motif in a really specific street dog way you just have to understand. in a wolf way, even. but in a rabid stranded starving way. he is the only heartbreaker as well btw. he'll be the loser in this game he'll be the bad guy in the play. eric is a duncney song but in a way you would not expect. it is the duncney duncan pov song ever actually. she can come closer he'll let her hurt him how she chooses. this view of her of the top of her head makes him forgive her. her skin cries a soft weep like his. his price how about just a part of her cause he wants. shouldve been me is THE duncney/gwuncan song ever. courtney pov. when she saw the girl looked just like her and it broke her heart the lengths he went to have her to get to have her. cause she hasnt given him what he needs. he wanted her but couldnt reach her. so he went into his memory and relived all the ways he still wants her. shes sorry it shouldve been her. thought ive had in my head for over a year. its literally Them. a loving feeling is the aleduncan 90th breakup song. theyre compatible but only behind closed doors. they mean a lot to me actually jsut like . In General duncan and duncan ships by extension are mitskipilled. mitskimaxxing, even. GRAVE DOG!!!!
frrrr you're so real but if im going to comment on Duncan I need to confess something. Ive never finished watching action. ive gotten to like ep 20 I still have literally never finished it. I know that he has a lot of moments in there but I haven't finished it for some reason. I understand you but also I'm not as insane. feel free to keep screaming about him because I completely trust your opinion . I'll probably finish action soon because you are dragging me into the duncan hellhole. I love characters who are so silly and stupid and also absolutely devastating if you think about it too hard. literally peak characters.
dog motif but in the way that he was abandoned by everyone because they weren't aware he was actually a wolf. he keeps finding new homes but he gets kicked out after a day. he's rabid and scary and he's desperate for a secure home, but he can't admit that because it goes against his nature. everything hes ever known.
I love duncney too btw. Courtney is such an interesting character to me but I cannot put it into words. I love her though. absolutely love her. she's so complicated and nuanced. Courtney is for the intellectuals (joking). same with gwuncan.
also I'm insane about aleduncan. not to be kind of basic but they're everything to me. they can only be with eachother if they're alone. insane about them
I don't have any song recommendations bc school has been fucking my ass recently. moving to an online school while being tech illiterate is actually horrible </3 but your music taste is soooo good. actually top tier. real and genuinely incredible. he's mitskimaxxing, lushpilled, puberty2mogging. grave dog you're so real always
#im exhausted btw so this is. probably incomprehensible. just know you're so true#total drama#tdi#total drama action#total drama island#tda#td duncan#td duncney#td#šŖ¦š

Iāve been holding this off for a while mainly cause I was afraid of doing it but I finally pulled through and now I have a story to share with yaāll explaining what happened during my hold at the mall!
I went dressed in black leggings and a sweater, bummer that it wouldnāt show I know but i was nervous! I had drank some before leaving my house so by the time I had arrived at the mall i was already feeling the need.
To make sure I was going to suffer (I know i know im a masochist bite me) i drank an entire water bottle i brought with me in the car before actually heading into the mall. So yada yada time passes and im trying to figure out what to do at the mall and I go get myself a drink at the food court then i head off to look around the stores.
About an hour in the mall and its starting to feel pretty urgent but not bursting so i decided hey, why not play a game with myself, and got into a bathroom line. However once i actually went into a stall i just sat there fully clothed not doing anything, still holding it in then shortly after left. Trust me i was getting pretty bored here to have to do that.
I got another drink and finally after finishing it I was getting antsy, crossing my legs and shuffling my feet while i sat at a table.
HEY IF YOUāRE SKIPPING THROUGH THE POST TO FIND THE INTERESTING PARTS ITS OVER HERE
So i go back to looking around stores, feeling my bladder ache each time i take a step and now im actually like, nervous because like its dawning on me that Im really doing this in a public place. Let me say its pretty crowded, its not like the mall barely has anyone in it. So here i am standing around in the corner of a store thinking to myself if I really wanna do it, i was thinking for like a good 5-10 minutes walking back and fourth till i decided i was gonna pull through, after all i made a promise that i would post something interesting and different ;p
I leave the store and about another hour passed and im pretty desperate, like constantly moving around wanna put my hands between my legs desperate. But since it was a public place i couldnt really just do that unless i had to go REALLY bad (foreshadowing haha).
Did i mention it was really cold in the mall, only made everything worse xD
Anyways so Im pretty desperate, i take a seat at the food court again and get ONE MORE drink, and as im sipping on it im squirming in my seat cross legged, im sure anyone whoās into omo would immediately catch on if they saw me.
Just a little bit later im scrolling through my phone with my other hand on top of my lap (not between my legs just yet)
Now Im REALLY anxious because its getting to the point where I know im going to have an accident soon so i get up and just start walking around with my chest aching from nervousness. I even stared at the bathroom in contemplation before walking away.
A couple minutes of aimless walking and i end up having to sneeze.. needless to say a little bit escaped but i stopped it albeit i looked a little silly. My heart dropped during it too.
About ten or twenty so minutes and i have to go REAAALLY bad and im super anxious, i even entered a bathroom line thinking i didnt want to actually wet myself but after a couple minutes of waiting in line i felt another leak which automatically prompted a hand to crotch response, you can imagine my embarrassment.
After the leak I was honestly horrified but also having a LOT of fun, i was close to having an accident so I decided to try to find a secluded area in the mall to hang around in for when i lose control. Each step i took was agony to take but i kept movin, slightly bent over too.
Eventually i found an area where not alot of people were, there were still some but it wasnt as crowded as the other areas. It was like this dead end section with nothing of interest other than a few benches and stores.
I stayed here for about a couple minutes, mild panicking, hella anxious, and kiiiind of excited. Thats when i started losing control. I was kind of in a little corner where a protrusion of wall was blocking me but if youād still be able to see me if you walked closer to the dead end.
It was a mix of terrified excitement when i tried to stop the flow but couldnt. The sounds of my pee hitting the floor wasnt helping. I dont think anyone actually noticed plus since I was wearing black leggings it wasnt super noticeable. I promptly rushed my way out of the mall keeping my head down leaving behind that puddle.
When i got back to my car i put out the towel i had stored in my trunk over my driver seat so i wouldnt ruin my car seats and kind of just sat in the car thinking about what happened. At the end i actually found the experience really enjoyable and might do it again ;)

pix . beautiful well written accurate academy award wining summery of the qroier betrayal and i mean that so genuinely . but can i add that qmissa also went along with qspreen bc hes more afraid qspreen than he is of qroier
i dont have the clip/timestamp but i have this old tweet someone made quoting it . its kinda my roman empire so that why im mentioning it. ok tkm gracias š«¶š«¶
thank uuuš„¹its so long i wasnt even sure anyone was gonna read it
the summary focuses mainly on roier and spreens pov but i did watch a missa vod when he finds out about the cat and i didnt see him say that however of course that tweet could be from another vod down the line that i didnt get to watch. i was mainly referencing my information from the vods i watched so if anything isnt mentioned then its cus i didnt watch it happen
if he did say that though thats rlly rlly interesting and i think also says a lot about qmissa. hes another rlly fascinating character
something that sucked was that missas vod after he leaves roier gets muted so i couldnt go super into depth into his reaction cus it was muted and i didnt want to quote from my memory lol

hey acti, i hate to be a downer when we're already fighting an uphill battle, but i guess i just wanted a fellow vegan to hear this :/
i dated someone this past year, and he knew i was vegan from the start, even when we were just friends, and it was never a problem; he surprised me with a vegan meal prep made with beyond meat once, would clean the grilling utensils when he was making animal-based burgers and I was having a plant-based one, and even, when we went out to eat and they got my order wrong and served me something with meat, put his hand on mine and said he knew i was frustrated and was sorry. fast forward five months and after we'd had a conversation where i told him in a hypothetical completely vegan world, we wouldn't be farming animals for agriculture so livestock animals like cows would sort of go extinct (which started with another hypothetical where i would either have to be super sick for a month or eat a piece of steak and be instantly cured, to which i answered id be sick for the month), he decided i was "radical" and we weren't compatible because he "didn't want his kids to be exposed to veganism". i'd even told him i would compromise (because ive always wanted to raise my kids vegan) in that when i would cook, the food would be vegan, and when he would cook, it wouldnt, and that wasnt good enough. there were other issues and red flags not related to veganism (though he was always making "joking" comments about how he'd "break me of veganism" by cooking a really good steak and convincing me to eat it), but it just really sucks! like vegans are the ones who get the bad wrap as supposedly being "extreme" - i shouldve been the one upset and bothered according to their stereoptypes for us, but it was him! carnists are just so close-minded and hypocritical its really unbelievable.
i really thought it could work if we just respected each other, but he, like most everyone, wasnt interested in genuine conversations or respect. and its so depressing because now i fear every other relationship i enter with a nonvegan will end the same! how can having compassion and respect for nonhuman animals make us so wrong in their eyes? i know it would probably be smarter to only date other vegans but i couldnt help falling in love with him. and the vegan dating pool is so small and spread out, and i dont live in a big, progressive city! im sorry to complain so much, its just a really exhausting reality.
thanks for listening <3
Iām sorry that it ended this way anon, it sounds like youāve been through a lot with this one.
For what itās worth, I donāt think that this sort of situation, as awful as it is, is anything inherent in being vegan. You had fundamentally opposing worldviews, relationships between people like that can last and be good for a while, but there will always come an issue that theyāll be split on and canāt compromise. He was unfair and handled it poorly, but even had he been more patient with you and more honest, it sounds like you just werenāt right for one another.
Not every non-vegan sees us this way, and plenty of people do navigate successful relationships with non-vegans. They canāt be anti-vegan though is the issue, and from what youāve described here, it sounds like that is very much what he was. He would need to have at least been sympathetic to veganism and have a positive outlook on animal rights in general. Heād also need to have known what your intentions would be with any children, though itās admittedly tricky to know when to bring that up.
Dating another vegan would of course be ideal, but someone who respects you and what you believe in, and crucially is honest about that, is all you really need. Everything else can be subject to compromise, but it sounds like that key thing was what was missing from this. It sucks that you had to find out a year in, but at least you know now before it went any further.
Best of luck in the new year anon, I hope you find better things, whether thatās happiness in your own company or with someone new. Take care!

Newbie newsies
A guide for new Newsies fans
Chapter two (part 2): Characters- whoās who
Previous: Characters & looks->ā¢
Chapter index->ā¢
Okay so now you know the characters but theres a lot of newsies! How are you supposed to keep track of them?
Donāt panic because i have just the thing for you!
I will list the way to spot certain characters for 92āsies and liveāsies and partly UKāsies! Pick out the ones you want/need to keep track off and only memorise those!
Starting with 92āsies!
So Jack shouldnāt be hard to find because heās the main character but if you ever have a scene with a lot if them: Jack has a Cowboy Hat and a Red Bandana around his neck.
Racetrack has a Cigar and a Pocket-Watch. He hangs out around Kid Blink, Mush, Jack or Skittery a lot.
Mush is hard to loose but if you do idk how to describe him lol. He is the Cutie with them Muscles
Kid Blink has an Eyepatch and heās Blond.
Specs is one of the two people with Black Hair that wear Glasses. He is the one with the Longer Face. He says āsince when did you become me mothaā and āthatās an unusual name fa these partsā¦ā
Boots is short and has some sort of Role to the rest of the newsies (i couldnt tell you what it is though) the only description the script says aboit him is āBoots, blackā (š) he Goes To Brooklyn with Jack and Davey.
Crutchie-suprise suprise- is the guy with the Crutch.
Skittery is one of the few newsies that isnāt super short. Heās Not Tall But Next to The Others He Looks Like It. Heās the one in the Bad Mood who asks āwhatās that getāchaā in King Of New York
Bumlets is the Ballet guy. He does the Pirouettes on the Fan during King Of New York and is one of the guys who Cover Jack when Snyder comes to look for him at the lodge.
Swifty is the Only Asian Person (i think) he has Ripped Clothes and his Hat Looks Different from the others
Snaps is the guy that Snaps at the beginning. He wears Purple or Pink Button-Upās and a Top Hat
Pie Eater is the guy who reacts when Jack calls for Pie Eater lol. He Covers Jack with Davey and Skittery after the rally when the cops try to get him. He Looks A Lot Like Tommy Bracco thatās how I recognise himš¤·
Snipeshooter is one of the Smaller Kids. Heās the guy who Steals Racetracks Cigar at the beginning and the one who asks āhow ābout a crooked politician?ā
Tumbler is the Tinyest Newsie who Slides From The Back and the guy from the Cover. (Itās interesting that heās on the cover and doesnāt even have a canonical nameā¦.)
Dutchie has Blond Hair and Glasses
Goldie looks like Dutchie Without The Glasses
Now moving on to Liveāsies!
Jack is Jeremy Jordan. Pretty hard to miss tbh.
Race, again, he has a Cigar. This time heās Tall and Blond.
Spot is Short. Oh and Buff. Very buff. Canāt forget that. He wears Red (all of brooklyn does.)
Romeo is Short and always Flirts. He says āwell hello hello hello, beautifulā and āme thinks the lady needs ta be handled by a uhm, real man!ā (āHowād she know ma name?ā)
Mush is Snarky?? Idk much to say but heās the one who says āSirens is like Lullabies ta me[ā¦]ā and ābut we sure scared the bajibas outa weasel!ā
Albert has Red Hair but you can barely ever see it because he wears a hat. The important thing about the Hat is that itās Backwards! Heās one of the guys that you can see the Arms well (Big Arms) and a Sharp Jawline. He only Talks Woth One Side Of His Mouth. He Steals Raceās Cigar at the beginning and says āSure buy a tickit dey led anyone iin!ā And ātake it down a knotch, shortstop! Iām just reportinā tha news!ā Heās one of the Really Good Dancers
Mike and Ike are the Twins. Yk the ones that Exist Twice. Basically the difference is that Ike (David Guzman) wears a Blue hat and a striped shirt and Mike (Jacob Guzman) wears a Brown Hat and āwhiteā shirt. They do the tricks inbetween the scenes and are shirtless a lot lol.
Hotshot wears Red. Heās the guy Next To Spot whoās Rly Tall (especially next to spot lol)
Smalls is the (ā)guy(ā) who Plays The Spoons.
Sniper is the guy with the Funny Face (that sounds so mean wtf???) he has very Defined Features. Heās one of the Scabs and says āMy old manās gonna kill me anyway!ā
York has an Eyepatch. He isnāt in the proshot i think:(

aot before the fall review in no particular order(mostly cuz im mad)
SPOILERS
xavi was introduced in the story as nothing but an antagonist that wanted to kill kuklo and basically saw him as an annoying bug. then when the wallists came and killed most of his family + kuklo left with sharle, he LOATHED him. in total xavi came at kuklo meaning to kill him 3 or 4 times?? THEN ALL THE SUDDEN in one of the last arcs (the training one) xavi suddenly is working together with him?? yeah he said it was for sharle, but it'd be just as easy to whisk her away during the expedition or something. why suddenly did he start caring so much about the future of humanity, the survey corps, and the odm gear?? because his boss liked him? bffr. BOOO. in the final confrontation, youre telling me xavi and kuklo happened to kill a titan together and suddenly xavi likes and approves of him WHEN JUST A MOMENT BEFORE he was determined to kill him???????? THEN X A V I of all people tore down MP corruption? XAVI? CHARACTER ASSASSINATION I TELL YOU. what a fucking disappointment.
NOW IM THINKING ABOUT THE FINAL CHAPTER.
the second half of the final chapter is nothing but an exposition dump in the form of a letter from sharle to a friend. major shit happens (like the major plot point with gloria being murdered) just GLOSSED OVER in a brief explanation. so annoying
goddamn the training arc went on for foreverrrr. SUCH A DRAG!!!!!!! it was like a lot was happening while nothing was happening. after the underground arc, the pacing went from say 80 to -999999. god i was so bored. i glossed these two volumes at parts because i was so bored. it was supposed to be a time to get to know the characters and figure out who was working against the survey corps, and while that twist was very smart, i wasn't happy. i expected this resolution BECAUSE OF COURSE the survey corps never gets dissolved. OF COURSE the odm gear would work. there was absolutely no tension.
for two volumes, i couldnt find myself caring about these new characters (like rosa, kurz, ivo...).
like when felix almost got eaten. like okay? he fell into that same category of cadets that werent fleshed out enough at all and i felt ambivilent when he sacrificed himself for rosa
ROSA. the plot wanted her to be important and interesting sooooo bad. suggesting a love triangle for the main pair, her importance as maria and sorum's daughter, the multiple times it was insisted she was discriminated against for being a woman (despite that NEVER having come up in all of the 50 chapters before that. if this was consistent, i'd feel differently. it's the best conflict that has to do with her character though).
i really didn't care what her motivations were for killing the titans because i didn't care about her. she's just... uninteresting. so broody. and why? because she got bullied by the boys? for several chapters until she became friends with sharle she did nothing but disappear and feel sorry for herself. maybe it's me, but it was just annoying.
yeah maria (her mom) disapproved of her joining the scouts, and it was interesting to see what maria would think after losing her husband to the titans too, but i kind of figured that would work out (and it did - in just one scene).
why the hell was she made a squad leader right off the bat????? her performance was NOT great, i mean failing at the odm tests multiple times, passing out during one of the training runs... it seems like the plot wanted her to be important (due to her parents) so she was made a squad leader.
shallow and boring. my least favorite character.
the lore is BY FAR THE GREATEST PART OF BEFORE THE FALL. it could be partly because aot is my biggest hyperfixation so i was super super interested by default, but the way btf expanded on the lore - the process of the odm invention, where the iceburst stone and ultra hard metal comes from, what the underground is like, etc - was superb and i loved every crumb.
angel is my favorite character. im not going to complain that btf wasnt referenced in canon more because i dont think thats fair to isayama and his editors, as all isayama did was approve what the writer and artists did. angel is a genius who contributed the most to the odm gear. i wanted so badly for him to leave the underground, overcome his guilt over corina and sorum's deaths, and work together with the main characters to advance the survey corps. he suffered so damn much and he overcame it. he's extremely interesting, well-written, and blorbo worthy.
im glad kuklo was also written extremely well since he was the main character. i only wish that he struggled MORE to adjust what life is like outside of a cage being treated as a freakshow act for being known as the son of a titan. it seemed like as soon as he and sharle escaped, he was the conventional shonen boy. which was pretty disappointing. you'd think kuklo would be awkward and unsocialized or distrusting of people for the abuse and isolation he went through, but he was perfectly fine. near the end, he had no more development and it seemed he blended way into the background, but thats not necessarily a complaint. it was rewarding to see him finally become a scout along with cardina.
loveeee cardina. he's just great. i don't have any complaints about him. despite not going in-depth about his past or who he is - i still cared about him, while i CANT say the same about rosa and the cadets introduced much later.
i have so much to say about the uprising arc. it was underwhelming it seriously came WAY out of nowhere. characters were introduced way too fast, appearing in one chapter and in the next one dying. the same can definitely be said of main aot, but the difference is i CARED about what happened to characters like nifa, willy, and pastor nick. the writing for these characters just ISNT there. i didn't care what the dissidents wanted because i never saw them struggle, or find out WHO THEY WERE. they werent fleshed out. i simply didnt care. they failed. boo hoo. mortiz was entertaining, but to me, mostly because it was like a trainwreck i couldnt look away from. his downfall was entertaining and i liked it.
the first arc with kuklo being imprisoned, meeting sharle, and escaping was my favorite next to the underground arc. it was sooo fun to see sharle try to navigate the underground and finding allies. even though her intentions were pretty naive (i guess?) i was rooting for her and cared that she survived.
carlo, his dad pikale - GREAT characters. was always super interesting to learn more about pikale since he's known as this legendary figure who killed a titan first, and as that was expanded upon and we learned that it was actually sorum and angel was super fun. carlo is a great commander and i liked him a lot too.
i thought sharle was annoyingly useless early on, but when she went against xavi after being captured and braving the underground was where her character rly started to grow and that was fun. she went from cowering at the sight of a titan she saw from the wall to resourceful and independent which felt natural. also seeing her become a craftsman and become her own person outside being from nobility.
maybe this is also just me, but the romance in this story WASNT for me. i wish it wasnt shoved in my face so much how much tension there was between kuklo and sharle to get together. like... we knew that was going to happen. also she was the damsel in distress so many times it felt contrived to me. but they were cute at times (especially with the side stories) and their romance was believable.
the problem came in when rosa was introduced and she took a liking to kuklo. MAYBE also just me... but love triangles are so boring and my least favorite romance trope. i didnt care about this subplot whatsoever and had me rolling my eyes at most points. it was nice to see rosa and sharle become friends instead, and having rosa realize she just wanted to BE kuklo instead of wanting to be with him. that was great.
the art? WOW amazing!!!!! its not that the art style compared to isayama was refreshing so much as super fun and creative. my favorite was how more horrifying the titans were portrayed than even in main aot. i have 0 complaints about it. i loved it
before the fall definitely started out extremely strong, dipped down during the uprising arc, and shined again after that UP UNTIL the training arc after kuklo got majorly injured. from there it was a TOTAL fall from grace. the final chapter was rushed, glossed over, and it sucked.
overall... i enjoyed it, but i wouldn't read it again. i can definitely reccomend it to aot fans who are interested in the lore most of all, but if youre a casual fan who wants a story like main aot or even no regrets (which was mainly character centered), you will be incredibly disappointed.
6/10
#aot before the fall#the end#...im just gonna read junior high now#or the school caste#im glad i read it but wouldnt do it again#aot kuklo#aot sharle#aot angel#aot
