perhaps even less relevant than the anon you got to listen to archive 81 by mentioning it once, you have quite literally never mentioned this podcast where i can see it (but you strike me as someone who mightve been listening when it was relevant...) but all this talk of horror/weirdfiction podcasts finally got me curious enough to go back and check out the Original Weirdfiction Podcast Hit, Welcome to Night Vale. i might be 12 years late on it, but im only 14 episodes in and can tell why this affected the ecosystem the way it did
oh yeah i was crazy about night vale back in the day, especially cecil (to the point i actually considered naming myself cecil when i was choosing a new name lol). it almost definitely influenced my writing/humour style, and was a huge source of comfort to me growing up, and looking back it's amazing how much impact it had on the podcast medium in general. i haven't listened to it in a while, but the old episodes still hold up, and if i ever decide to revisit it i imagine it'll touch me just as much as it did when i was younger, only perhaps different parts of me, in different ways. i'm glad you're enjoying it, it's a classic for a reason!

Fuck it I cant sleep so here ya go
Werewolf x BAMF Human thingy prt1(?)
This will be very gay cuz fuck hetaronortivity and long cuz i’m a complex fucker
You are deceptively strong and durable on a supernatural level.
And by on all means you shouldn’t be, as far as you know you’re 100% human, it was just very easy to get strong to you.
You live alone in a cottage in the woods, traveling to a nearby town (which would take hours by vehicle but only a few minutes for you on foot) for groceries or any other supplies isn’t really an issue, you just enjoy the solitude.
While hunting for dinner, you find a black wolf who’s unconscious and heavily wounded. Maybe poachers nearby lost their score? They better pick a god and pray that they don’t run into you.
Because of your bleeding heart and to fuck over the dickwards who wanted to skin the pup, you decided to bring the wolf back home and nurse them back to health
In hindsight, the biggest red flag was that this certain wolf was bigger and heavier than the average lupine, then again it’s nothing you cant handle and there’s not much of a point to body shame a wild animal.
You bring the suspiciously-bigger-than-normal-wolf back to your humble cabin and nurse them back to health with the power of a first-aid kit and your know-how of animals.
The night goes by and you awoken to your fridge being ran through, the door wide open, and the wolf-who-was-way-too-big-to-be-a-normal-wolf no where to be seen.
You fear that the poachers mightve somehow found where you live and captured the wolf, but there’s no signs of a struggle anywhere.
This leads you to deduce that the fuckmothering wolf you decided to bring to your house and deemed safe to sleep under the same roof in WASN’T your run of the mill wolf and never was.
Atleast the fucker could leave a thank you note or something.
Few days go by where you have to go deeper into the woods due to the sudden raid of your consumables. You were chasing down a moose because why not? It’s been a week and it looked at you funny.
You only manage to loose sight of it for a few seconds before you come to see that your bounty got slain by a pair of huge brown wolfmen. One of them even spots you and gives you a snide grin.
Try as you back away, you bump into something hard (STOP IT) and fuzzy, and to your distain it was a gray werewolf -being accompanied by its blonde friend- blocking your path.
Ambushed and surrounded by a quartet of lycans, the one that smiled at you graciously informed you that you’re currently hunting within their turf. You apologized like the good man mother raised you to be and made it clear that you will make sure not to make the same mistake again as you try to move away from the wolves who towered over you by a foot or two.
The gray wolf clarified that a simple apology isn’t going to cut it and that they would be willing to forgive and forget if you “have some fun with them”
A small part of you is quite curious and maybe a bit excited of the “invitation”, but you ultimately give your answer by unrooting an entire tree with your bare hands.
Cue little red riding good by cupcakke as you chase down the small pack while carrying an entire tree over your head.
You don’t see those werewolves again for a while and you’re free to get some meat (SHUT UP) without any interruptions for about a week
Until one quiet night of stargazing, the same werewolves you terrorized way back when came back with some friends.
Geez guys atleast fight your own battles.
Good thing you got your trusty shotgun because if you’re going to taking on 14 or more werewolves, you’re not going down without a fight.
The blonde one you remember seeing pointed at you and shouted at something behind them about an intruder who threatened then
Ok they’re not wrong but it was all in self defense
The werewolves part way for whoever blondie was talking to, and you can’t believe to see the consequences of your own ignorance.
The ALPHA wolf (as the yellow one described him) is bigger and bulkier than the rest of the company. But this isn’t any random alpha werewolf. This werewolf was covered in black fur. Fucker still even has the bandages around his beefy arms.
As the alpha walks towards you, you decided to meet him there halfway, yelling at the wolf on how rude of a guest he was and that none of this would even be happening if he didn’t steal his meats.
As the wolf opens it maw, you cut them off that leaving them alive doesn’t count for shit and nobody here is entitled to anything of yours just because you’re big and scary and weirdly handsome
Before you can say another thing, the wolf discards something off their back and drops it in front of you, the huge and meaty thud breaking your train of thought.
You behold the object infront of you and see it’s a giant willdboar. Somehow even bigger than the moose from before.
In shock, you look back up to the black wolf who’s now kneeling down at eye level to you. His red eyes, unmistakably wolf like, still has a strange humanity to them. And yet they magically sparkle like jewels under the moonlight.
“Thank you for saving my life, I do hope this will make up for all of the trouble you went through”
His voice was deep, gruff, and manly and still so soft and calm. There was no hint of anger or malice in his voice compared to the others, actually, maybe there even was hint of guilt as well?
The black wolf stood back up to their full 8 foot majesty, adding on that he will personally talk to the lycans who made an attempt on your body personally and make sure that they wont bother you again.
The alpha began to walk away, but your voice stopped him in his tracks.
“Don’t be a stranger!”
The big black wolf turned to you with his ruby eyes wide at you, he looked surprised, confused even, it’s clear that he wasn’t expecting this to even happen and neither were you.
The alpha’s maw opened, but no words came out, not even a sound. All he could do was look to the side and give a nod.
As the werewolf walked away with his pact following suit, you couldn’t help but notice as his black tail sway side to side, dare you say it was… wagging?
No, it cant be. You must be very tired. It has been a long week

(tw for discussion of pedophilia / an adult dating a teenager)
id like to preface saying that the relationship im discussing in this story is long ended and my sister is now an adult herself, with the previous boyfriend being completely out of the picture now. this story isnt a current event, im more just trying to get a grip on whether or not i was justified at the time.
aita for trying to go to the police about my sister's relationship?
as i said, this happened a while back around when i was a preteen/young teenager. my older sister (14 at the time) met a friend of a friend (18m at the time), they started dating when she was 16 and he was 20, and i was the only one in my family who found it weird. which was odd considering her track record of dating older teen & adult men as a preteen/young teen. (i think her biggest problematic age gap was online dating an 18 yr old as a 12 yr old, i dont know if she was honest about her age or not) either way, it was undignified to me that my parents (aka her step mom and bio dad) and her parents (aka her bio mom and step dad) were both perfectly okay with it, and my sister insisted she was old enough to make her own decisions. i argued with her plenty about it, to which i forged a plan in my 13 year old brain to gather information about this relationship and tell the police. i pretty much acted buddy buddy enough to where she would tell me everything about their sexual activity together. id rather not disclose all the details, but if it eases anyone's mind, they specifically never went "all the way". i will say that according to my sister, her boyfriend masturbated to a picture of her when she was 14 which is still so gross to me. i discreetly wrote down everything she said as she was telling me and planned to take it to the authorities. however, before i actually did, i had gotten into another argument with my sister about the relationship and we were so loud my mom came in the room to break it up and talk to me. my mom found the paper i wrote everything on and she threw it away, saying i would "ruin his life" with this information when hes so young. out of spite at this point, i ran out of the house and walked all the way to the police department in the middle of the night. they brought me in but i pretty much was emotionally exhausted and worn out and decided i just wanted to go home so i said nothing about the situation. the cops called my parents and my mom came to pick me up. knowing why i was there, my mom asked the cops if a 16 yr old dating a 20 was illegal, to which they said no. (although this could be because of state specific laws rather than u.s. federal laws, im not sure either way) i tried to tell them everything i knew but they weren't having it and thats where it ends. ever since then ive been so confused on what to believe because the age gap and sexual activity still doesnt sit right with me at all. and i still dont even know the full story of their relationship, they couldve been dating privately before she turned 16. either way my family treated me like i was overreacting big time and my sister was angry at me for not being supportive of her. after a while i hesitantly assumed i was in the wrong because everyone else seemed to think so, but thinking over this drama again makes me think i mightve not been. so, was i the asshole? was it really not a big deal that i was overreacting about?
What are these acronyms?
