vivid enjoyers where you at i got your food /silly

Summary:

Avid makes a series of stupid decisions which lead to him being jumped by a vampire in a shady alleyway in the middle of the night. that's it that's the fic

Words: 872

Chapter: 1/2

Ship: Vivid

Warnings: Somewhat graphic blood drinking and vampires have venom here which functions as a sedative

wheeeeeeeeeeee-

In hindsight, Avid had made a lot of very poor decisions in the past 24 hours, and really, this whole situation could have been avoided if he'd been more careful. It turned out that staying up far too late, sleeping in and being late for work, and going home late at night to make up for it wasn't the choice he should have made. Because now, he was walking home alone. 

...In the dark.

...On a side-street that no one took because there was no good reason to pass through. 

And he had a suspicion that he was being followed. 

There was a green glint, a reflection of light in the shadows of the alleyway near him. Near-imperceptible sounds of objects rustling in the wind passed right by him. 

Avid ducked his head and walked a little faster. As soon as he made it to a better lit-up street, he'd be safe. He just had to hope that his stalker wouldn't make a move before then. 

Unfortunately, and as he expected, luck was not on his side. He had barely stepped in front of another alley when a hand shot out from the darkness and grabbed him. In mere seconds, before he even had time to react, there was a hand over his mouth preventing him from making any sound and he was pinned against the brick wall. The person's grip was so strong it felt almost inhuman. 

Avid couldn't see anything but a faint glow of eyes, mismatched bright yellow and blue. The green glint he'd seen earlier must have been something else. 

But then, the person opened their mouth, and Avid's stomach flipped into his throat. He'd thought their strength had been unnatural, but they had fangs. The sharp points caught the light, gleaming menacingly. 

Thoughts racing, Avid started to properly panic. What kind of a person had fangs? 

This person, whoever they were, definitely weren't human, so he could confidently cross that option off the list. 

While he'd been thinking, Avid had missed the person saying something to him. 

He never found out. 

They swooped in, towards his neck, and there was a stabbing pain in the side of it before it went all tingly and Avid started to feel woozy. The sensation of something warm and wet over the wound was shockingly not unpleasant. 

Wait- were they licking up his blood? W- they werebiting down again, they were drinking his blood, what the hell-

Something in the back of his mind told him that this was either a real vampire that had attacked him or someone with a very strange fetish... although given the earlier evidence, it was almost for sure the former. Either way, he was still bleeding profusely from his neck, so it didn't matter much to him in the moment. 

He got ahold of himself and managed to bite down on the hand over his mouth. The vampire (vampire!) yelped, and let go of Avid for a moment, and he made a valiant attempt at leaping for the edge of the alleyway, but he only made it about a foot before he was thrown to the ground, the vampire pinning him once again. 

"Well, I tried to be nice about this, but you just had to go and make this difficult. You're tasty, though, so I'll give you a free pass if you just hold still..." 

This time, Avid was paying attention when they talked. Their voice had an undertone of off-ness that he supposed just came with the whole 'hungry vampire' package, but other than that, it was actually very nice.

At least, it was nice until he got bitten again, and apparently the woozy-tingly feeling from before had been something the vampire did because he felt it again but about a hundred times stronger. His limbs felt like lead, and he was all of a sudden too exhausted to talk at all. He couldn't move his arms.

Which sucked, since he was no longer being forcibly muffled. 

He tried to roll away, out from under the vampire, but they were a little bit bigger and a whole lot stronger than him- especially in his venom-induced sleepiness. Unless hallucinations were on the list of side effects of vampire venom, he was being laughed at. 

"I'll give you points for entertainment, at least! It's fun to watch you struggle."

"Ss... shut up," Avid slurred. 

The vampire sounded surprised. "Huh, you can still talk! I'd have thought you'd be near completely knocked out by now. I'm not done eating yet, though, so you can actually shut up. It's harder to not injure you horribly when your throat's moving."

"Nnnngh." In an act of defiance that Avid did not know where he summoned the courage for, he turned his head over to look at them.

"M-hm. Yeah, I said no moving, actually! Here, I'll help." 

The absurdly strong hands went to his chest and his head, rendering him completely immobile. Then, the pain in his neck returned, albeit slightly less noticable now that he wasn't fully... present. Even if he still thought he had even the slightest chance of getting away, Avid just didn't think it was worth trying anymore!

Hopefully, he'd forget about this by morning.

fictober day 13: "that's not the point" | all the wrong questions | G

read on ao3

They were sitting on the floor of the Mallahan living room, cleaning up a game of Parcheesi. Lemony had lost handily, as he usually did, and was currently frowning at her with his arms crossed. “This isn’t fair, Moxie. Can’t we play something else? You always win at Parcheesi.”

“Well, perhaps you’re just a sore loser.”

“I am not a sore loser,” Lemony said sorely.

“I’ve been trying my best to help you, Snicket. It’s not my fault you keep leaving pieces out to fend for themselves and then getting surprised when I capture them.”

“That’s not the point.”

Moxie stood up to return the box back to its place on the high shelf. “What on earth is the point then?”

“The point is that I’m plain sick of Parcheesi, is all. It’s impossible to win.”

“There’s a difference between you being bad at it and it being impossible to win. Chin up. You’ll to win soon enough.” The statement was completely empty of any real meaning. Moxie doubted he would be able to win a single game with his level of skill.

Lemony flopped over, face down on the hardwood. “You’re right. It’s improbable that I wouldn’t be able to win a single game. Maybe we just have to play more rounds. It’s simple statistics.”

“I thought you were sick of Parcheesi. And I don’t think that’s how statistics works.”

“That’s absolutely how statistics works,” Lemony mumbled into the floor. “One of my associates back in the City is a very talented engineer.”

“What on earth does engineering have to do with statistics? Those are entirely separate fields.”

“I just meant she’s better at math than I am— and I don’t think that’s entirely true, anyhow.”

“Whatever you say,” she huffed. “All right, I’ll go back and get the box if you really want to play another round. Are you going to get up from the floor?”

“No.”

“Alright. I suppose you’ve ceded victory already, then.”

SMG4 BUT SPLATOON

i fell into the splatoon fandom aaa

[where-does-the-heart-lie]

love your haikyuu au!! i was REALLY into haikyuu circa 2021 so this has been a treat :]] (im gnawing at the au and shaking it like a dog toy)

the orcas vs seals thing makes me wonder: is koby gonna make an appearance in this au? because itd be hilarious if every time the two teams cross paths its just instant hostility but the moment luffy and koby notice one another its just

granted, i do think koby would at least pretend to hate luffy and all he is. just like in the canon though, he does a sucky job at it

thanks sm! i also got into it around that time, really got me through the end of my senior year and covid. (biting and gnawing and thrashing them)

yeah koby would show up Luffy's second year since koby is a year younger than him. So Ace and Sabo (and bepo(he's there too)) would be graduated and i bewieve luffy would take over as captain and start recruiting more strawhats on the team like usopp and chopper(when luffy is a senior) and im thinking sanji would transfer to their school during luffy's second year.

Zoro is already on the team but he would be held back cuz he's ass at his grades and he would also be kicked off the team at the end of the year because of them too, ha loser. he'd get back on it the following year though. Sanji would also have failed his senior year. He would have failed out of his highschool and have to retake senior year at sha chishiki.

By the way, all of their ages are the same in canon. theyre just a little younger so they can be in highschool.

im imagining some romeo and juliet shit happening with luffy and koby. I really like imagining Sabo fucking hating the naval academy, Ace not really hating them but thinking koby is a wimpy little crybaby and hating him anyway. And one day Luffy brings Koby over their house just to throw around the ol' volley skin and ace and sabo being like "What the hell is that doing here."

and luffy being like "He's my new friend :D we'll be in the backyard so we wont bother you guys" and as luffy and koby walk past the two older brothers, they both give koby a Scowl For The Ages.

i just love imagining Sabo and Ace detesting Koby in general. Theyre so sillyyy~~

of course they would come around to him but it was a rocky relationship From The Beginning.

thanks for the ask! it really sparked some brain storming.

[literalite]

hi joseph! what are your thoughts on penacony arc? started it just yesterday and i'm not vibing with it 😭 afaik this is a pretty common feeling towards the beginning and especially 2.2 chapter but i've also seen people defending them. it's always intersting to see your opinion about any media in general, you have some insights i never really thought about. good luck on whoever you choose to pull!

omg hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii im so glad u appreciate my takes about these sillyyy gacha games rubs hands together lets get into it.. ive finished the whole story at this point but so sorry if i end up spoiling ill try break it up patch by patch

tldr; i think penacony is def a plot that gets more refined the further u go on, which i think makes sense because of how large and expansive the cast is to begin with they also throw like a fuckton of different plot points at u so theres a few different veins of thought u can chase in various directions. theyre going for more of a mystery and more morally ambiguous cast than the other planets/locations we've been to so far so i think its more a side effect of the genre so to speak. there's more room for error here and i admit i got tripped up at times esp in the beginning. i actually really liked 2.2 but it might be because my personal favourite penacony character got a lotttt of screentime, my fav patches have been 2.1 and 2.2 because at least in my opinion thats when the plot sort of tightened and wrapped up so it was less just stuff all over the place left to mislead us. this latest patch's story (2.3) is probably my least favourite but im still like sorting out why exactly. overall i think penacony might have had the best plot so far

2.0 - if one dreams at midnight aka black swan, sparkle and misha, and the introduction of penacony in general

the opening of this event/world was REALLY good i loved having acheron walk us through the hotel. probably one of the more engaging new gameplay tutorial processes i've been through and it raised so many questions (who is she/who is she to us/whats with the red text/WHAT IS GOING ON) that from someone who was admittedly not entirely sold on the whole dream hotel concept i was pretty easily hooked. admittedly i think the sort of concepts they were laying out for us in this new world are a lot more abstract than what we've previously encountered so i know a few of my friends ending up getting kind of tired of all the philosophical exposition and started just fast tracking their way thru the dialogue... which is a shame! yes theres a LOT of it and not all of it feels relevant in the moment but as someone who sat thru and read it all i think it was pretty solid. maybe they just need to get a bit better at being succinct

DGFghj the cutscenes and the characterisation in this patch were really beautiful moving stuff because i swear to u going in i didnt give a fuck about like. most of the cast like my only thought going in was oh i want sundays gender. but what i REALLY enjoy about penacony is that it felt like all the characters served a purpose in the story and there wasnt any characters just shoehorned in for the sake of more units to sell. does that make sense? for example in the xianzhou luofu i love that cast i swear but if you really look at them you could probably axe at least five of them from the roster and the main story would have remained exactly the same. like they appeared in the plot but they felt palpably unnecessary. whereas at least right now with all the playable characters that first appeared in penacony all played vital roles in progressing the story. i think for the amount of characters and how interesting they all are thats pretty solid storytelling, even if it amounts to just a lot of exposition at times. i liked the various clashing ideologies and paths it made for way more substantial narrative than any of the other locations so far

2.1 - into the yawning chasm aka the aventurine story ft. acheron

i think this patch had the strongest emotional story running through it, but i could be biased because i LOVE aventurine. to be clear i really didnt care about aventurine prior to playing through this story quest

im serious btw like i actually could not care less about him. it was solely the story quest that made me do one of my biggest 180s on him so far, and i know i'm not alone in this sentiment. i was actually really surprised they were spending sooo much time in his pov and mindset i think it was a decently bold move considering that we literally fight him by the patch's end- imagine if we'd spent half of belobog in cocolia's shoes for example. IT PAID OFF- i genuinely think the slightly less enthusiastic response to 2.2 is in part due to how fucking surprisingly amazing 2.1 was. i think acheron's presence in this one for me could have done with more but she has a stronger overall place in the narrative over the course of all of the penacony story quests that it somewhat balances out. the trailblazing crew took one hell of a step back for this patch but everyone was fine with that and i hope it encourages the writers and the devs to be okay with our like "main protagonists" being less of the pov characters. its interesting when you get to see other's lives, if anything for a gacha game it should honestly be encouraged? but anyways yeah this one was my fave patch on just the story alone

2.2 - then wake to weep aka robin and boothill's patch, as well as wrapping up the main plot of penacony AKA the sunday patch. to me.

i do think this one's story is a little weaker than the first two and especially in comparison to 2.1... but nevertheless i really loved it still mostly because i'd been waiting for sunday to unveil his true colours this entire time. the english va for sunday? fucking incredible it was the amount of just barely leased emotion holding on by the barest thread of control you could detect in pretty much every line he said that really hooked me onto the character. i think this update's plot is a little messy in terms of like pacing- at some points it dragged on and on others it felt way too fast but i adored the false ending and the whole twist of it all. some aspects of the story were admittedly really repetitive for some reason? a lot of the dialogue felt a little too overexposited- as much as i love the express crew when they're altogether they really just like yapping on about the same thing on repeat... i don't think the whole talent show thing was necessary LMFAO going into sunday's history lesson/mind palace construct would've been more than enough.

alllllso i get why boothill was here for this but at the same time of all the characters he feels the most... redundant? this sentiment is mostly influenced by the next patch because i really thought we were going to like actually go somewhere with his set up with aventurine but that kind of just.. didn't happen. like hes more necessary to this story than say, qingque or i guess bailu were for the xianzhou luofu but regardless his presence in this while amusing kind of lacked the oomph that all the other characters have had

this patch's cutscenes were definitely the best of all the ones we've seen so far, in my opinion, basically only rivaled by the aventurine vs acheron fight. all of sunday's scenes were chef kiss to the highest degree the way the line "through harmony, we obtain order" lives in my mind literally rent free. honestly i just like watching this whole thing

its fantastic. SUNDAY is our best villain so far hands fucking down i really liked the whole social contract aspect of his methodology. as much as people mischaracterise him sighhhh just the betrayal of his own sister in a bid to fulfill her dream, albeit misguidedly, is just so lovely and tragic i just. HRGHHH fucking phenomenal work. i know people got taken aback because sunday spent 2.1 being so focused on robin's murder, and i agree his turn straight back to his originally laid plans was more abrupt that i would have personally liked, but i still really enjoyed the whole thing fghjk. i am so biased because ive loved sunday from literally the moment his little chibi invited us to penacony at the end of the 1.6 stream (??) so every aspect of it was amazing to meeee. this patch had a slower build up to its climax than the others but its still my second favourite wuagh

2.3 - farewell, penacony aka firefly and jade's patch

im sorry this one is probably my least favourite ;-; they gave us really high expectations (the whole aventurine vs/with boothill ending, jade's introduction to penacony, etc etc) and i knowww this was always meant to be the last chapter of the penacony story so i shouldn't have expected them to unfold whole other untouched plot points at this stage but.... after all the high stakes of the rest of the story this ending while in some aspects kind of satisfying, fell short. for now! i expect them to bring the whole ipc scheming plotting thing back, they seem like a faction that will encounter a reckoning closer to the endgame of the story as opposed to being wrapped up right now. on an emotional level and specifically for the trailblazer and firefly's relationship, this was a fine patch! it was really cute... i just think that with how much emphasis we got on the pov of the other characters i really wish we'd spent time more with the rest of them. i guess i expected the ipc to bare their fangs a bit more here, but it still felt like it wrapped itself up cleaner than i would've preferred. sfdgfghjhkjk sue me i like chaos i want action i want them to fiiight... i guess it'll just be a matter of time though. not on this world, but maybe someplace elsewhere. we can only hope! in this regard i actually preferred the xianzhou ending, with tingyuns funerary service... it had more of a true weight to it than the goodbye the astral express gave the dead trailblazers and gallagher. they shouldve gotten a cutscene idkkkk

my brain is steaming so im gonna curb it here but basically in order of my fave to least fave the penacony patches go as follows:

2.1 -> 2.2 -> 2.0 -> 2.3

as someone who's only played genshin and hsr from hoyoverse i think this is a really good sign as to increasing complexity and depth to their characters and plotlines. the penacony narrative works because as self contained as it is it also presents us with a lot of questions and differing viewpoints that i daresay most of the other worlds both from genshin and hsr have so far been pretty much completely lacking. this really felt like a big beautiful puzzle getting assembled before our eyes and while the pieces didnt all seamlessly fit its just so much better than i am used to from this company im excited for the next worlds to come :D
