[swimmingchicken9]

the hyperfixations are costing me money

first it was the outer worlds peril on gorgon & murder on eridanos (still havent finished the latter)

now its black ops. 3. help.

[fortheb0ys]

Need at least three dicks. Hendricks, Taylor and Khail. One for everyhole. I would give Khail a special treatment with bj because he is just our silly little boy and imo he if fem farah. Anyway. Also Khail makes me want to cuddle him. Like cuddles snuggles all the way. Also i want to Peg Hendricks. Peg not fuck. Taylor also will be fine but Hendricks. His smile is just so cute. Also i need more bots with them on all ai apps. Did i write it just because i noticed you fangirling Taylor? Maybe , did im gonna write oneshot from stuff i writen ealier ? Maybe , but first i need to write another fanfic. It will be inspired by codfan art . Did i Ask author of the fanart if i can write it and after getting premission i stayed quiet for few months already ? Yes. But i'm close to finishing planin the lore so be patient. But maybe writing one shots from Black ops isn't so bad for start....

Smiling hendricks

Also i want him to treat the strap like he is treating this chocolate thingy:

(pic by me)

Im horny. And sleepy. Dominik horny sleepy little fella. Like i wake up at 4am, fall back asleep and wake up at 6 and didn't even take a nap after it. Going to sleep and write some freaky stuff.

ALSO IM PLANING ROLEPLAY WITH MY POOKIE. BO3 ZOMBIES. AKA PRIMIS CREW AS 2024 OLDER TEENAGERS PLAYING MINECRAFT TOGETHER(RP WILL BE IN MC) ANYONE WANT TO JOIN ???? ITS GONNA BE SFW. ALL OCS WELCOME BUT WE NEED SOMEONE FOR THE ZOMBIE CREW

Khail my baby boy getting special treatment. I need him where I can see his pretty face. He's front and center. Your eyes locked with his as your mouth works at his cock. His pretty brows knitted together. The pleasure changes his face, somehow making more breathtaking than it already is.

You could get lost in those eyes and that you did. A sharp kick to your side reminds you of the added company. Hendricks is under you, demanding for shared attention. Your cock slipped out of his needy hole and as you were preoccupied with Khail, you had completely forgotten to stuff Hendricks back full.

Giving a huff around Khail's dick, you blindly guide your cock back in it's rightful place. You continue to suck and keep a rythm at the same time. As you were finally getting into it, a small whine reminds you that Taylor was left neglected. You take your eyes off Khail and let them fall on Taylor. His cock painfully red and weeping.

Your hand wraps around his hip and pull him closer. It's hard to maneuver around, pinned by both Khail and Hendricks but you find a way to reach behind Taylor. Spreading his ass, your fingers begin stretching his aching hole. A gentle hum sounds from deep in Taylor's throat. It's content and satisfied. Though he much rather throw Hendricks off of you, being the one to get fucked stupid on your cock, he'll take your skilled fingers as a win.

His hums turn into moans and grunts as you find yourself into your rythm again. Out of the three of them, Taylor was surprisingly the loudest. Maybe it was the long years of military service, spending quality time with just his right hand, that made him more sensitive than the others. His noises didn't seem to please Hendricks much, as Taylor let out a pained yelp. At first you thought you'd hurt him but as you pulled yourself off Khail, looking down you see Hendricks teeth buried into Taylor thigh.

You give him one deep thrust against his prostate, making Hendricks forget his problems with Taylor. His tip drips white. He's close, you think they all are.

Multitasking is something you're working on. Taking time for everyone as well as rewarding the most well behaved. Khail found him with your attention most of the time as Taylor and Hendricks were at each other throats to be your favorite.

The demand is tiring and you're just as close as the rest. You lap at the underside of Khail's cock, the vains dancing on your tongue. The salt taste fills your senses as he finishes down your throat. You swallow everything, licking his tip to not waste a single drop.

One down, two more to go.

Your fingers make quick work of Taylor's greedy hole. He takes in a third as the stretch becomes a burning pleasure. His grips your shoulders trying to steady himself as he begins to shake uncontrollably, as orgasm ripples through his body as he cums completely untouch.

Now all eyes are on Hendricks.

He smiles wide as your attention falls solely on him. You're pulled down into a rough kiss as you nail his prostate making him see stars. With a few more lazy thrusts, he cums screaming. He's completely lost in lust rotten brain as you follow shortly after cumming in his twitching walls.

With your last bit of strength you push yourself off Hendricks and fall onto the filthy sheets. Breathless you begin to let sleep overtake you, unwilling to do anything about the mess. Your eyes fall heavy as you fall asleep to the sound of Hendricks bickering with Taylor on who gets to cuddle you. A heavy weight curls up next to you as Khail takes the opportunity to be the one to hold you.

Pookie, if you write a fic I'd eat it up😭🫶 Writing these gave me life! I love the idea of having all of them in bed.

Summary:

You and your boyfriend, Katsuki Bakugou, have been dating since Junior High. You have been there for all of his angry moments, his depressed moments, and all of his great moments. You’ve been there through everything. Sure, he’s gotten angry with you and you two have argued but recently, he’s gotten angrier and more jealous. It all started because you were hanging around your three friends Izuku Midoriya, Denki Kaminari, and Eijiro Kirishima a bit too much. Let’s just say, Izuku doesn’t like your relationship very much and all of his hatred for it, shows today.

“Fuck yea!” You dropped the controller and jumped up. Clapping your hands together as you did a little dance.

“That’s such bullshit!” Denki speaks up, running a finger through his hair.

Izuku, you, Denki, and Kirishima had made a bet while sitting in your dorm about if you or Denki was better at Call of Duty: Black Ops 3.

The score was tied but then you were about to fall off the map, costing you the game.

He was about to win and he put his controller down waiting.

Lucky, it was a snipers only competition and you got him right before you fell.

BAM. Headshot.

That brings you to where you four are at now.

“Damn I really thought Denki would win,” Deku says softly, earning a laugh from Kirishima.

“Nah, Y/N has always been better at these kinds of games.”

“Bullshit, they got lucky,” Denki huffs.

“Y/N, I always had faith in you. You’re truly amazing after all,” Kirishima praises you and you laugh in response.

“Of course I am. I’m Y/N.”

You all laughed and talked for the remainder of the day. It was about 7pm and you hadn’t noticed all the texts you had gotten from your boyfriend.

You were having fun and got distracted, it happens. You were all playing a game of uno until a hard knock was heard on your door.

“Ay, Y/N! Open up.” You hear the aggravation in his voice.

Bakugou.

Everyone seems pretty calm except for Izuku Midoriya.

His body tenses up.

Your quirk allows you to enter somebody’s head, their body, and you can stay outside of their body and hear their thoughts. You know what a person feels and what they think. Your physical abilities are amazing but your psychological abilities, your psychic abilities are what got you here.

You turn to Deku immediately. You feel his fear and his sadness, you wonder why.

You can look into someone’s mind undetected, of course, but do you want to know? Do you want to invade his privacy like that?

Yes. Yes you do.

You take a deep breath and you allow Midoriya’s thoughts to linger until you could hear them properly.

‘He’s gonna kill me if he sees me here. I shouldn’t have told him. He didn’t need to know. I could’ve kept it to myself. He didn’t need to know. I didn’t want to tell anyone. Why did I tell him that? He didn’t need to know. Goddamn it, Midoriya. Your fear must be showing. Y/N is looking at you. If I could swallow this fear, go back in time, and tell them I love them I would. Why did I open my big mouth? God. What to do, what to do.’ His thoughts ramble on and on, you shut them out and take another deep breath.

“Y/N, are you okay?”

“Midoriya, are you okay?”

You both speak in unison.

“Why wouldn’t I be okay?”

“I don’t know. You look nervous, Spots.”

Spots. A nickname you use for Midoriya because of all of his freckles.

You notice his blush come in as he goes to say something else before another loud bang is heard.

“Y/N. Who are you in there with? Is that Deku?!”

His voice sounds more mad than usual, as if he’s gonna explode. Midoriya looks frightened and Kirishima and Kaminari take a look at each other.

“I’ll get it,” Kirishima says.

“Hey Bakugou-“

“Move, shitty hair.”

You can tell by his tone that he’s pissed.

He’s hot but he’s pissed. You know how he is, so you quickly get up to go to him but you stop in your tracks. He’s not even looking at you but rather at Midoriya.

Fuck.

“Why the fuck are you here?!”

Midoriya takes a deep breath and when you see him look at katsuki, your katsuki, you know he’s not gonna back down.

“Well, I’m their friend.”

“Like hell you are. You have Denki and Kirishina here too? What, so you can flirt with them and they see it as nothing but harmless friendship?!”

“Bakugou, you should chill.”

“Nobody is talking to you, dunce face.”

“I’m not flirting with them.”

“Bullshit!”

They turn to you suddenly.

“You’re just allowing this?!”

You’re taken back by his comment.

“Allowing what?” You replied to Bakugou.

“This?! I know you see how he stares at you! And these two?! I bet you they know about it! Don’t you?!” Bakugou turns to them.

Kirishima and Denki were silent until Denki hit Kirishima’s arm.

Kiri takes a deep breath before starting. “Yea we knew but that wasn’t our intention of trying to get them tog-“

“Bullshit! You wanted him to take them right from me, huh?! Are you stupid?!”

Bakugou steps back a little as Midoriya gets in his face.

“Why are you here starting with them?! They cannot control my feelings nor can you. If I wanted to steal Y/N from you, which I do NOT, it would be on my own fucking accord. And if Y/N would like to be with me, who am I to deny them?! Kacchan, I care about you but my happiness—“

“Fuck your happiness! They’re mine and if you think for a second that they’d even look at you is mental. You’re lucky I don’t snap your neck here.”

“Guys, come on.” Kaminari whines as Izuku puts his head up.

“No no, let’s ask them. It’s me or him.”

“And why would they pick you?” Bakugou snarls.

The attention is back on you. You’re looking at all four of the boys.

What the fuck just happened and what kind of movie cliché just played out in front of you.

“Woah, don’t do that.” The words leave your mouth faster than you intended.

“What? You're scared you’ll hurt poor Deku’s heart? Sorry, Deku but my partner would never look at you and little shits like you-“

“I’m sure they would Kacchan. Especially because you can’t value them,” Izuku snaps back.

“You walk around like you own them and shit instead of letting them be their own person.”

“They are their own person. Fuck are you on about. I treat them very well,” Bakugou snarls once again.

He earns a laugh from Izuku.

God, you can feel the rage coming from Katsuki.

“Why the fuck are you laughing?” His tone is more quiet but that rage never left.

“Maybe we should be civil about this,” Denki suggests as both boys shoot him a glare, signaling him to shut up.

“Yea, Kacchan. You walk around like you own them. We can hear the arguments you guys have because you’re jealous and territorial an-“

“You’re listening on our conversations, you little-“

“I’m not done speaking. Has your mother ever taught you manners?” Izuku’s voice is getting deeper as he speaks, the anger becoming more intense.

Bakugou was stunned by the quick reply. Izuku keeps speaking.

“You’re a jealous, territorial, son of a bitch who tries to control what Y/N wears the fuck outside and how they present themselves. ‘That’s too revealing.’ ‘Boys will look at you.’ ‘Change it now.’ We can hear everything.”

While Izuku mocked him, he made his voice a bit deeper, earning another glare from the blonde.

Bakugou is stuck listening to how his relationship is from outside eyes.

‘Am I really like that?’ He thinks to himself.

“You guys should stop.” You speak softly, despite their loud and intense tones.

“No no, Y/N. Tell your boyfriend how you come to me crying because he’s a control freak. Go now. Tell him how you cling to me, sobbing into my chest because he never fucking appreciated a damn-“

Thud.

Katsuki threw him. Right against your wall and lunged at him.

You sit there stunned, watching the two boys fight.

What can you do? Of course, you wish to break it up but their strength levels are crazy.

You’re relieved when Denki and Kirishima pull them apart.

“Stop it! You’re behaving like children and let’s hope you don’t wake up any of our other classmates or even Aizawa!” Denki whisper-yells at them, more frustrated than ever.

You take a look at Midoriya than Bakugou.

Midoriya’s right cheek has a cut on it but no real damage. Probably a bruise on his body.

His body.

Bakugou is a bit sweaty. His blond hair is messy and there’s not really any marks on him besides the blood coming from his lip.

His lips.

You go to say something but Bakugou puts his hand up, to silence you.

Your mouth closes as you wait for him to speak.

“You see what I’m talking about. Y/N can never speak for themself because you keep silencing them.” Izuku snarls and Bakugou just looks at him.

“Leave. All of you.” You finally speak up.

The four boys look at you.

They look at you with sadness, regret, pity, and from Bakugou, there’s a look of..hatred?

You stare at them. Your eyes are cold and it feels like you can see through them.

Maybe because you can technically but that’s not the point.

“Fine. I’m gone and us? Tch we’re done.” Bakugou’s tone is aggressive but shushed. He looks at you for at least 5 seconds before leaving.

He wanted you to plead for his love, for him.

But you couldn’t do that. Not anymore.

Kaminari and Kirishima follow. As Midoriya just looks at you.

He knows you’re hurt.

“Y/N..”

“Midoriya. Go.” You speak quietly, almost like a whisper.

He’s never left you while you’ve been hurt or upset. Funny of you to think that’ll change now. He walks over to the door and…

He shuts it.

He shuts and locks the door before returning to you, fast.

The embrace he pulled you in was tight and welcoming.

You returned every bit of his affection.

“God, Y/N I am so sorry. My emotions got to me and they shouldn’t have. I did not want to cost you anything, especially your relationship.”

Your head is buried in his chest. How much you hate the boy holding you right now.

You hate him.

You hate him, you hate his smell, his touch, his voice…

“I hate you so much.” You whisper to him, tears flowing down your face.

Oh how badly you didn’t want him to pull away. Even despite the hate that you felt for him or the hate you should feel for him.

Your heart couldn’t help but beat for him. If he moved away from you now, you’d break.

“I know, Y/N. I know you hate me but I can’t help but love you.”

His sentences drive your mind wild. The way he takes time with his words. The way he handles everything with care.

“I hate how you make me feel,” you say in a choked sob.

“I know. I know.” Izuku kisses the top of your head.

You look up at him and he looks down at you.

Sure, you’ve had feelings for Midoriya while dating Bakugou. You’d thought they’d faded but every time you and him are alone, they are there. When he just holds you like this as if you’re the only thing special to him, especially when you’re crying, it makes you feel things that nobody ever could make you feel.

Not even your Katsuki.

“I know you hate me. You probably don’t wanna see me after this but Y/N… I can’t hide how I feel. I’m in love with you. I’ve been in love with you before you two started dating..

You're my first love and I never wanted to come between you and Kacchan but, my heart wants what it wants. And right now, It wants you.”

With that last sentence, he leans in. Closing his eyes as you do the same with yours.

His soft lips now on yours and you both can taste the saltiness from your tears, but at this moment, neither of you care. Your arms wrapped around his neck as he kept his hands on your hips.

You pull him closer to you, leaving no space between your bodies. Drowning in each other and not caring for anything or anyone outside of you two. Right now, it’s only you two.

He pulls away after a while.

You two are breathing heavily while staring at each other like two love sick maniacs.

“I knew you loved me and I knew Bakugou was stopping everything.” Deku pulls away from you as he gets on his knees, taking your hands into his.

“I wanna make you forget him. I wanna be the only man in your dreams and the only one you wake up to. I want to yell and fight but communicate with each other and understand each other. I wanna be yours, Y/N. I wanna be yours. Let me be yours. Please.” Izuku looks up at you with pleading eyes.

Who are you to deny him?

Deny your favorite boy?

You look at him for some time, taking in every word and he gets more nervous by the second.

“Shit. Izuku. You’ll be the only man I ever look at.” You whisper to him as he stands up.

You can see that his excitement got the best of him.

He holds you so tight.

The scars from Bakugou are still there. The hurt he caused, those scars.

With anyone else, you’d say you wouldn’t date them just like that and you would forget your ex first and maybe just maybe you’d consider a relationship. But it’s Izuku. A man of his word. A man that would give you the world and more.

And before you know it, your old relationship with Katsuki will be forgotten.

For now, you live in the moment.

You live in Izuku’s arms.

In his arms.

Well What if I Was In Charge Of Pokemon If I'm So Bloody Smart?

No matter where you are on the internet, whatever the fandom is, someone is always going to ask about what you’d do if you were in charge of it. For example, a lot of Bible fans are very convinced that their fanfiction is actually factually true. Whether it’s fantasy Wrestlemanias or ideal outfit compositions in Pretty Little Liars, there’s always an urge to take a thing you already know and make your version of it.

Also, people who like Pokemon routinely talk about what stupid idiots the designers are and how they could do a better job of running the game. I don’t think I could, because I know there are competing factors and I think that everyone who opens their mouth to talk like that sounds like a tool.

Still, if I think those people are silly, it’s easy to say that if I don’t put myself out there, right?

Here! A bunch of opinions about what I think should be done in Pokemon as a game franchise. Nothing like ‘open world matters’, I think the game should always be a competitive 2v2 Bo3 format and the rest of the game can follow from that. I also don’t think that this would make the game better. It’s very important that I put it out there, on my sleeve, that none of these changes are based on deep insight into the game or the way that it should be. No. This is a centering of myself, as a designer, and as a player of games. This is how I want it done. Also note that none of these changes are simple or oblative, like, this isn’t all that I think should happen, there would need to be specific changes and fine tuning for all these pushes.

There, preamble done, here’s how and where I’m right.

Kill the Rock or Steel Type, Don’t Care Which

To me the Rock type feels like it exists because when they were setting up the type chart back in Red-Blue, they figured they’d need something like that, like making sure to sketch out space for a window box while designing a window. But Rock in RBY got to be Ground’s ugly cousin, with its greatest perk (a resistance to normal moves) not proving adequate to the task of dealing with that generation’s overwhelming normal type attacks, and being bolted consistently to something that gave it a quad weakness. In Generation 1, there was one rock type that wasn’t quad-weak to grass, and only three that weren’t quad weak to water as well. In its first appearance, Rock was literally never used on its own, which to me suggests that the type wasn’t actually doing a job. It was a sorta-type, a thing to keep them overwhelming grounders under control, I suppose.

In Gen 2, as if to fix Gen 1, they introduced Steel types, which were uh, like, Rock types but good? They had the ground weakness still, they shared that, but they no longer catastrophically mixed with ground, and Steel had the kind of resistances that made it fit for ‘tough’ Pokemon types. But this brought with it the new problem that now Rock’s old job – a physically tough type of elemental Pokemon type that represented being made out of something inert that wasn’t necessarily stuck to or of the ground – was displaced by something that was just better.

Rock exists in an ugly space between ground and steel, made worse. Steel exists to do Rock’s job, but better. Steel is one of the best types in the game and even brings with it an immunity to a whole wing of status conditions that you want on a tough Pokemon that wants to endure fights. One of these types sucks at doing its job and the other is too good at it and any time you get one of them you probably would be better off if it was just the other.

My druthers, Rock would be Steel, the Steel Type wouldn’t exist and the Rock type would just have the Steel associations, and if that doesn’t make sense for a Pokemon I’d just make it loose the Rock type. Graveller and Golem didn’t get anything being Rock types after all. Oh, Stab on Rock Slide, yeah, woo, that means something.

Get Rid of the Fairy Type

You can admit to your mistakes, just admit it, the Fairy type was an attempt to address the problems of making a bunch of broken dragon types. It has no coherent flavour, and it’s super strong in a way it does not justify.

The Fairy type sucks and it’s so popular and strong it’ll never be properly addressed.

‘Oh but if you got rid of the fairy type, what type would you give the fairies? there’s nothing else that fits’ yeah see what I mean about not having a coherent theme?

Buff the Ice Type

Ice got a ‘sort’ of buff in Scarlet-Violet, in that one of their moves got made worse. Oh, more usable, but it it didn’t actually help Ice. See, Ice Types in Hail get a defense buff, making them better defensively under the new ‘Snow’ condition. This means that now you can run a single Ice type and it gets tougher as long as this snow condition is going on without needing to build your whole team around them the way them. You could include teammates that were immune to Hail without building around a single type, and benefit from the defensive bonus it now grants, which is like the defensive bonus you get from Sandstorm.

Basically, you know that good weather, Sandstorm? Well, rather than Hail, the Bad Sandstorm too much like Sandstorm, it got replaced with Snow, so it’s now the Bad Sandstorm.

Anyway, the Ice type should resist water (turning water that hits it into ice and floating in ice are two good themes there), and Steel should be weak to Ice. No strong reason, just fucking hell, give Ice something to do.

Stop Making Bugs A Dumping Ground

Bug is such a weird type because it’s clearly something that the designers are fond of, something they like, but it’s also a type with almost no meanigful support in the game’s entire history. The list of good, tournament-meaningful bugs starts at Scizor, adds Volcarona and kinda stops there, and that’s a list that’s been about that long since forever. The Bug type is used in the early game to populate early routes invoking things like looking for cicadas as a kid.

But the result is that bugs aren’t treated as a sort of whole type of their own. Bug type moves are typically weak hits, and even though U-Turn is an incredibly important move, it’s never important for being Bug, it’s important because it’s a pivot – a move that lets you transfer in a Pokemon after other attacks. Its potential offensive capacity is irrelevant, and you can tell because as good as U-turn is, it’s showing up on Incineroar – quite possibly the best VGC Pokemon of all time.

There’s no legendary Bug.

There’s never been a Box bug.

There’s exactly one Mythical Bug ever, and it was Genesect.

Fully-evolved bugs have the lowest average stats, and they as a group have the lowest hit points, and special attacks of any group.

Bug as an offensive type is resisted by seven other types, and bug resists three uncommon offensive types – fighting, ground, and grass. It even has a weird thing where Fighting resists Bug and Bug resists fighting, which isn’t something that shows up in other damage types.

The Bug type is a bad type and Bug Pokemon are bad Pokemon because Bug Pokemon aren’t made to be good. The best Bug move is good because it shows up on the Best Pokemon of all time in a competitive environment.

My solution to this is not to do anything with the type per se but just, like, fix it? Stop making Bug Pokemon that are bad. Make better moves for Bug Pokemon to use. Take every fully evolved Bug Pokemon and give it better stats. By all means, keep the way that Bug Pokemon are bad at HP and Special Attack, sure – but give them something for it! This is a type with a lot of Pokemon that get to be Someone’s Special Guy, and they have made it so anyone who gets attached to Bugs early on is guaranteed to have to give up on their faves when they start playing in competitive scenes. That sucks!

There! Just some opinions about how Pokemon should be designed. These are the kinds of opinions I think are interesting to consider.

[m-s-justice]

Peter McCain is such an interesting character as he in practice is essentially a living plot hook, despite in text being a real nifty guy.

He was a spy in Group 935, alongside Harvey Yena, for the Americans. That's already a pretty cool backstory, except by the time we, the players and therefore the audience, come in he's already been outed and needs to be extracted. He serves as Dempsey's plot hook, his "damsel in distress". He directly leads to Dempsey's capture by hitting him with the ol' Your Princess is in Another Castle. Though, by the time of his [Dempsey's] formal introduction in Shi no Numa, Peter is already dead. After that, he no longer has much effect on the narrative other than set up and set dressing. In BO1 he is almost entirely forgotten about, with the most influence he has being Richthofen's paranoia about spies in 935, which Yena uses to his advantage to get Maxis to babysit him.

(and maybe the one recording in Call of the Dead where Richthofen refers to Dempsey as a spy, perhaps implying that he has confused him for McCain.)

I'm not even going to dwell on his BO3 cameo. Just know that I don't like it.

BO4, for all its narrative flaws, was SO RIGHT in bringing McCain back, even if it was kind of an asspull. [pretty much all the writing in BO4 was an asspull but hnnngrh] Now, he's alive and is interacting with the narrative.

He gets ress'd with *visions* of the Great War [but they subside for some reason?? Despite him being pretty much the only dude to be directly affected by the Elemental Shard :/] and joins Broken Arrow to work alongside his former handler, Cornelius Pernell. Peter gets to witness his descent into madness and even pulls an intervention as he calls the Department of Defense to remove Pernell when Peter believes that he's become too unstable to lead. Which is AWESOME! Peter is almost directly responsible for Pernell's immediate ascension into the Avogadro and his confrontation with the DoD, and the presumed reason for why Camp Edward is in disarray. HUGE ramifications for my boy Peter.

Of course, he doesn't get to see it, as he is promptly locked in solitary confinement and then booted into an ADAM Unit before all that happens. His narrative influence is understandably minimal, until the events of Alpha Omega.

To be entirely honest here, I could write an entire different post about Peter in AO, but to be as succinct as possible, he essentially just gives Rushmore the thumbs up about the Gaggle of Idiots, gives Ultimis Dempsey some character depth if he's present, and then ponders the orb. I mean, becomes the orb and then fucks off into who knows where.

The POINT I'm trying to illustrate here is that Peter McCain was a character best described as missed potential. He is either killed off or otherwise incapacitated before he can really do anything of major importance. He was an on-the-run spy who could've been a running side character the way 935 personnel were, but instead he is killed parachuting. Now, Peter was likely retconned into being the dead body and Treyarch didn't expect to have the sprawling narrative they ended up with. This is still WaW story-telling. I can cut some reasonable slack.

The BO4 treatment, however, is entirely inexcusable. Now, I have a bit of a bone to pick with BO4's writing that deserves a series of posts, but it was glaringly obvious that Peter was being set up for something important, some "unfinished business". Hell, Rushmore refers to him as "someone very important to humanity's future". And then the very next map, Tag der Toten, ends the entire storyline. Of course, he could always come back through the Dark Aether, with a possible explanation being his interaction with both the Elemental Shard and his soul residing within the Elemental Orb at the time of the universe's destruction allowed him to withstand the Agarthan Device's erasure. It's still somewhat of an asspull, but it has some logical and narrative backing, so I think this outcome could slide.

Will that happen? Probably not. Do I hope so? Absolutely. My call to action for this essay? make Peter McCain content my boy deserves it.

[richtofenz]

hiiii ok so ive been clogging my likes for weeks, i finally caved n made this blog so im gonna start rbing tons of awesome art shortly but for now lemme introduce myself!

my name is shay and i accidentally fixated on codz, specifically the ultimis team (bo1 being my favorite game). i totally didn't expect to get so invested, i thought it'd be casual, but i've reached the point of developing elaborate hcs lol so i thought i'd finally attempt to connect with others within the fandom to maybe toss ideas back and forth?

first things first, to get it out of the way: ultimis richtofen is my favorite. i'm used to liking antagonists and i have no interest in trying to justify things such as world domination and murder, because to me it's all fiction and villains are simply fun, but the one thing that i do wanna address is the glaring issue of richtofen's attire. i'm gonna talk about it more in depth in a separate post (which you’ll be able to find on my blog) but off the bat, i wanna say that i'm jewish myself and nazism is no joke to me. fictional villains who commit fictional crimes are fun because they’re not real; nazis were and are very much real and i have no interest in sympathizing with them or making light of their actions. typically, i’d also refuse to even tolerate someone simply bearing the insignia, but i find richtofen to be a unique example. again, i’ll talk about it more elsewhere, but the important thing is this: he is not a nazi in canon. and, regarding fandom, fortunately i havent seen much that's genuinely made me uncomfortable, just ignorant dumbasses that have made me roll my eyes and go ‘what in the hell? are you dumb?’ (this also extends to how takeo is treated lmao). that being said, i fully understand discomfort with ultimis richtofen and i respect anyone who dislikes him! but he's my fucking bastard and good lord ive been losing it over him for weekssss im dying man

im not big on primis or the other teams (though i appreciate victis & bo2, mainly for aether!richtofen) and i have no idea what's going on with the monty / shadowman plot - bo3 and bo4's lore is absolutely incomprehensible to me. usually i love game lore, but if im being frank, codz's is a clusterfuck and possibly one of the most sloppily written storylines ive ever encountered. it's literally entirely composed of the writers having gone "hey, wouldnt it be cool if...?" with zero interest in just making things make sense.

despite this, ive gotten attached to the characters and ive been developing headcanons, namely about (ult) richtofen, his pre-935 life, and the time before and after the MPD incident, as well as the relationships that suffered and changed due to it. i'm not trying to pretend like he's deserving of sympathy, but there is smth inherently sad in literally losing your mind and yourself to a damn... cosmic force, and ive found it highly intriguing to think about the behavioral changes he underwent and how those in his life reacted to it. ive got,,, a lot of hcs fhsdkfds. 

so this is a bit of an open invitation. would anyone in the fandom wanna talk abt richtofen together? bounce ideas off one another? if you're starving for content in this dried up fandom, im a fic writer who's been inactive for a bit out of a lack of inspiration, but his evil ass has proven to be my muse; i just need a fire under my ass to get it going. ive already got some stuff in my drafts ;o so yeah, pls hit me up!

and! if there’s any codz discord servers that would be comfortable with an ultimis richtofen stannie among them, i’d love to join!

The End of Aether (Tag Der Toten Spoiler-Free!)

\\Lmao had to make a note to the fact that people who joined this fandom just now or like, two months ago will never understand the emotional wreckage us OG's went through —A Friend//

It's been almost nine/ten years since I've gotten into Call of Duty—Nine long years of watching characters I would grow to love and adore flourish and become idols in my eyes when I was a kid. I listened to the music Kevin, Elena and so many more produced and I had grown to love. This was my childhood.

It was Ultimis whom first grasped my heart, each character quirky and hilarious in their own stereotypical way that it made me feel happy and laugh a good long while. Richtofen had been my favorite the moment I met him, his crazy persona and wannabe god/all powerful quite something to watch as he pushed around his so called comrades. It would later come as no surprise he was the first I had truly grown attached to.

I played every map Treyarch had to offer in BO1 (not including the WaW after Campaign thing cause I guess that was my first zombie introduction before BO1?) and did my best to challenge myself. I pushed through every Easter egg I could look up or do on my own and finished them all.

When Tranzit was introduced in BO2, I was a bit confused until I heard the voice of the man I had come to love through Stu. I lost it and was immediately interested. The map was crazy to get to know, but I was more focused on the lore to care.

Mob of the Dead came after this, I believe, and they officially became my favorites besides Ultimis (because Victis hadn't clicked just yet).

I watched Victis progress and then came Primis—I was a young girl and seeing very attractive men who were supposedly the younger versions of the men from BO1 made me squeal. Gosh, they were so handsome back then that I pushed everything away to get to know them. The robots were scary but all the more cool, and the Panzer scared the shit out of me but I didn't care. More lore and hot boys! I did every Easter Egg I could.

Victis concluded and filled some questionable gaps I was looking to be answered and I was happy. Myself was ready for the next battle Treyarch would pull.

BO3 was a trip—the continuation of Primis. I watched and listened to them bicker like kids and it was honestly adorable and cute. I watched my heart crumble at the deaths I was forced to witness and the emotions I felt within the four of them as I took in every detail of the story so far. Watching them kill themselves with every Easter egg I completed (Including SOE which was boring until I saw Ed crawl out to steal the summoning key) Remasters of maps came back for a hard hit of nostalgia and the last map fed me all the information I needed, along with videos for everything else.

BO4—The Emotional Ride continues. Watching Edward die was like punching yourself in the privates—it hurts so bad that it stings after a long while. Playing Classified was fun and watching everything tie together was happiness and sadness. It was going to end soon, I know it was, but I was not expecting what I got.

It's been a long 9/10 year road, and I'm happy I set down it. I will cherish this fandom and the people who have been here as long or almost as long as I have. These crews will live on and we will cherish their special moments with us in our hearts.

No one can pull me away from this fandom, even if it might die out, it will forever be a part of me.

Aether may end, but our love will never die!

Thank you all for walking this road with me!

Annoying baby brother! Michael Langdon to older sister! ReAder hc’s?

Annoying Baby Brother Michael To Older Sister Reader Headcanon

Requested By @blind-daydream thanks for the request had way too much fun with this one & can totally see this to be canon for younger Michael tbh!

Word Count 2,454

*Y/N grew up an only child when he father remarried and her step mother became pregnant with her baby brother when she was about 16 it changed things completely!

*Y/N did admit that growing up she was lonely no one to play with, hang around ect. You remembered your step mother telling you that you wanted someone to mess with and blame things on. But she did have to admit that she loved being spoiled by her parents.

*One day Y/N's dad tells her “Y/N, I got a surprise for you.” “What is it,” you said eagerly.You weren't used to surprises from your dad, better yet ones that followed through.

*Y/N's step mom was sitting there with a baby in her arms. “Who is he?” you asked. It came out harsher than you expected.  “This is Michael, he’s your brother. That’s your surprise.” You didn’t know what to say. You didn’t know if you should yell at them for having ANOTHER kid without you knowing or if you should pretend to be happy.

*You didn’t know what to do right then and there. You were thinking about your dad's stupid wife for giving birth to the baby without telling you, and him for lying to you. The day your “little brother” was conceived was the very same day your dad cancelled plans with you. Now you could could see why.

*You hated your dad. Well, you didn’t exactly hate him but you were really upset and hurt. This wasn’t the first time he let you down and this wasn’t the first time you were left disappointed.

*Y/N tried to get along with Michael, help her dad and step mother out with your younger brother. When he got old enough to walk, talk ect you quickly found out that he was a handful to say the very least. When Michael turned 6 boy did the problems really begin!

*Michael constantly takes your stuff without your permission! He decides to take your phone and suddenly start playing Minecraft!

*Michael keeps going into your room he breaks in to steal stuff, and he always messes up everything.

*Michael annoys you on purpose! He makes stupid annoying butt jokes, he also yells, screams, punches and kicks. He drives you to tears sometimes.

*Michael would tell your parents lies about you! Of course he would skew the story to make himself good person. And then your parents believe him! #FakeNews #CorruptSystem

*Michael would always blame things on you, without fail every damn time! When your in a bad mood and Michael is bugging you and he breaks something, he ALWAYS blame it on you just because you were in a bad mood.

*Michael was making your life stressful, he annoys you when you need to focus and he blames you for doing some small thing and then makes you waste time on your current school project because he is king and needs everything from you! He keeps going in your room when you and your friend are in there, he keeps watching an annoying YouTube channel EVERYDAY just to name a few things that really seem to irk your nerves.

*Michael always acted innocent especially when he would do something bad!

(Michael slaps you)

You: stop hitting me!

Michael: I didn't do anything

You: stop lying!

Michael: WAAHHH!

Dad: What's going on here?

You: Michael just hit me

Michael: No I didn't! WAAAH!

Dad: (to Michael) ok you didn't hit her

You: WHAT?

He was being an ABSOLUTE TERROR!!

*Michael would always borrow your stuff without asking! And then you never see it again, he takes your stuff and never gives it back. EVER.

*Michael was a BIG cry baby! cries if he doesn't get what he wants. Your parents would say "suck it up" and if you continued to cry your dad would tell you to grow up and that you were immature. He would either cry and give you the silent treatment or he flat out just wouldn't leave you alone!

*Michael thinks that he is the best, he gets what he wants,he thinks he knows more than you do! He is always like "I'm stronger than everyone in the world! " or “ I AM SMARTER THAN YOU! Face the facts! You will never be smarter than me!”

*Michael acts spoiled! Anytime you would ask your parents for something (example a sketchbook from the local market that was priced at $3) they said no, their excuse they didn't have the money! However, if Michael wants something, he must get it. If you said no, or you needed something as well, he would be a stubborn ass.

*Michael wouldn't listen to you...never!

Your Parents: Be A Role Model! Set The Example!

You: Sets Good Example

Michael: *Does the complete opposite*

He wants to play video games that he is not allowed to play (you are allowed to play mature games but you have limits.) Michael just puts in Grand Theft Auto 4 and starts playing while your parents are in the other room! So you tried to save my him from getting in trouble with your parents. But naturally he wants to get on a game that he is not allowed to play (I am allowed to play mature games but I have limits.) My brother just puts in Grand Theft Auto 4 and starts playing wile my parents are in the other room! So I tried to save my brother from getting in trouble with our parents. But naturally he just argued the entire time and paid absolutely no mind what so ever!

*Michael would get away with things more easily! Your step mother would see trash Michael left out, like a candy wrapper, and you would be slightly closer to it and she would make you pick it up and throw it away! He could tell on you for something you didn't do and he just walks away with a big smile on his face while your getting your butt busted.

*Michael is a scaredy-cat! He is scared of everything. Dark rooms, weird noises, the faucet, zombies, thunder, clouds, clowns, beetles, bees, spiders, snakes, sleeping alone, flushing the toilet, heights, graveyards, blood, mice, rain, snow, monsters, outer space, needles, sleeping with no one in the same room the list goes on and on, IT SUCKS!

*Michael fakes his crying, In the car you and Michael fight he hits you on the shoulder and then starts fake crying and says “Y/N punched me! " like what the hell! Or he won't even hit you and just say you hit him. Every time you say no to Michael he always screams and your step mother comes and says what's going on then he starts fake crying, then naturally you get punished for nothing.

*Michael is a tattle-tale,

Michael: Mom!

Step mother: What's wrong?

Michael: Y/N won't share her new book!

You: Idiot.

He gets you grounded almost everyday of your life and its terrible. And your step mother always believes him more than you. He always gets away with things and you don't. He is a snitch. He got you grounded pretty much everytime.

*Michael would force you to do things that you really didn't want to do! Play games, read books with him, Sword Fighting, Nerf guns and sniping, wrestling, watch lame ass tv shows that bored you to no end!

*Michael would absolutely rage when you killed him in a video game! You killed Michael many times in Call of Duty BO3 he keeps raging when you killed him when you killed him like 10 time he just slams the controller on the table.

*Forced to actually share a bedroom at one point with Michael! You never get any quiet time also Michael snored like crazy and it drove you crazy!

*Michael thinks he can tell you what to do! Whenever he tells you to do something, and you say no, he says to you in a bossy voice "when I tell you to do something, you do it." It takes Every. Single. Ounce of your strength not to lay your hands on him.

*Michael tries to be the center of attention! He always gets lots of attention while you are being overlooked/ignored.

*Michael can be rude! He laughs at all your stuff, copies you a little, and just can't stop being so rude, your parents let him get away with EVERYTHING!

*Michael thinks he can do whatever he wants! He can be rude and bossy, he has no idea what it's like to be grounded. He complains about everything! He is failing all his classes, lied to your stepmom about his homework and grades. How does she ground him? Taking away his electronics until he annoys her and she tells him he can have 2 hrs on his computer which turns into all day, gets to watch T.V ect.

*When Michael does something bad your the one that gets in trouble! He is such a jerk! Just because you punched him gently, he complained & you got punished for it. When you are in your room and your parents are outside but Michael causes a mess you get in trouble.

*Michael doesn't realize age difference, he keep trying to fight you and beat you up!

*Michael never pulls his weight, your the one doing all the chores. Yours and his! If you complain to your parents, they tell you you can't force him to help.

*Michael thinks he can boss you around! He thinks that he's your dad and has the right to tell you all the stuff that dad tells you to do. He even takes your money and uses it to bribe you with it's the worst

*Somehow you feel like your parents love Michael more. Your dad favored Michael for the longest time. If you get in a fight with Michael he automatically punches you and then yells at both of you to knock it off.

*Michael deliberately embarrass you! Whenever he overhears you talking he turns around and tells other people! When it came to visitors or other kids your own age he told lies about you saying that you cry all the and that you are a scaredy and after he told them that they started hating you.

*Michael is just straight up mean! He wouldl yell at you for no reason and he will scream for anything. is so mean. Whenever you buy anything, he has to buy the exact same one, and breaks his own. Then he says that it's yours and that's broken, and takes the real one from you.

*When you have friends over, Michael acts stupid and try to get your friend's attention! He openly hogs your friends attention and openly said he didn't want them to pay any attention to you!

*Michael ruins your belongings! You were working on a drawing for a competition, and you left it on your desk in your room, and guess what my Michael did? He scribbled all over it in brown sharpie. He had also burned your kitten poster that he ripped off your bedroom  wall!

*Michael is a brat and your parents don't do anything! He can be a little ass hole you could tell my parents over and over and they won't do anything, and then if you do something like if you forget to do the dishes after you  get home from school you get your ass busted and your phone taken away it's just not fair!

*Michael is whiny, especially if HE don't get HIS way!

*Michael thinks he is a big kid! He always hangs out with your friends and is very distracting and annoying. They even start to pay more attention to him than you. You swear to god every time Michael acts like he the center of the earth you just wanna choke him to death.

*Michael doesn't shut up! JUST WON'T STOP TALKING!!

*Michael takes advantage of your parents! He knows that your parents treat him like a king, and he takes advantage of it! He will do anything to embarrass you, get you in trouble, annoy you, you name it! He does it.

*Michael complains...boy does he complain! He complains about everything, and when you say that, you really mean it in fact your dead-ass serious!

*Michael can't stop being annoying!

*Michael is an idiot, he keeps messing up his life (he goes to a crummy school and gets crummy grades, etc.). You wanted to play Minecraft with him. You went to survival you both were gonna go to a cave and when he spots something like food then you were like “Come on” now he is like “where are you”? You said “ Really? I’m right near you”. Then he said “Where”? You  said “ I'm BEHIND YOU, ARE YOU STUPID? THIS IS WHY I don't WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU CAUSE YOUR AN IDIOT! ”

Then you got in trouble by your dad. And one day he threw the Xbox controller on the chimney stone throw. Ugh you hate him!

*Michael gets away with everything! He thinks its funny and acceptable to slap your ass all the time. You always get angry and tell him to respect you and your boundaries but he laughs it off.

*Michael has the most annoying voice! He is a chatterbox. His voice is loud and annoying.

*Michael is a BIG jerk!

*Michael keeps asking the same stupid questions over and over!

*Michael likes the stupidest TV shows!

*Your parents blame you for everything because of Michael!

*Michael can be outright cruel! He has threatened to kill you before. He loves to talk trash about overweight people, people who are socially awkward, people who do not fit the classical standards of beauty, people who are academically challenged, people with mental disorders, people who are sensitive, people who do not conform to gender norms. If he isn't insulting you, then he's insulting one of your friends.

*Michael has nothing better to do than making your life even harder and more stressful! while studying for a hard test, the little brat kept yelling and singing and messing with your books and you couldn't study. Your parents only care about Michael, and you get nothing.

*When you are watching YouTube, or Netflix. Michael is constantly hanging over your shoulder! Your just trying to watch some YouTube videos,and Michael appears behind you and he was like, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? And then when you tell him leave your alone, he starts fussing and saying your being mean and annoying though! wtf man!

Stealing the Chicken

Last night was my match during our team’s semi-final round for the local Region Wars showdown tournament, and I’m actually really proud of the team I built. So of course I’d write a tumblr post about my team-building process. 

The name, correctly spelled ‘curi ayam’, is a malay saying my mom often uses that means ‘to steal the chicken’, which is kind of slang to say doing something you hope nobody will ‘catch’ you for. Which describes this team perfectly because honestly, what I came up with was basically putting all my eggs in one basket and hoping nobody would catch me out on it. 

The showdown links to the bo3 matches are here: Game 1: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7doublescustomgame-855419427 Game 2: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7doublescustomgame-855421029 Game 3: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7doublescustomgame-855423345

and my long-winded explanation down below the cut:

So, more on the tournament first. Region Wars is held by the local VGC comm, and basically we’re split into 4 factions: Kanto-Hoenn (who we kicked out last week), Sinnoh-Johto (us), Unova-Kalos (our opponents this round), and Alola (the currently undefeated champion). This week was the semi-final match of the loser’s bracket, because Unolos kicked our ass in Week 1, and Alola kicked Unolos’s ass in Week 2, and basically whoever won this round would make it to finals. As of the writing of this entry, even though I won, the fate of my team is still hanging in the balance on the last match of the week so please cry for me :’) 

But yeah, basically the rules were: Double battle, 6v6. Only use mons that were native to your pokedex and introduced only in your region, so stuff like Gyarados, Clefairy, and Zapdos was limited only to Kanto, for example. Mythical legendaries were banned for obvious reasons, but event legendaries were mostly allowed, save for mons like Arceus, Hoopa, and Magearna (basically the guys who were deemed too broken for the format by our admins). Which was sad because I wanted to use Arceus but my friends say that as a non-religious person Arceus would never lend me Its power anyway. 

So, anyway. We got our asses kicked by Unolos R1 because we had no idea what we were doing, had no team plan, had no idea how to chart vs the threats, and had no strong overwhelming options to control the match in our favor. Moreover, access to a lot of the normal Doubles threats like Shadow Tag Gothitelle (which made it hard for us to position our mons) or Landorus-Therian (who just kept Intimidating our physical attackers before U-turning out), made it difficult for us to play vs them. They also had access to Amoonguss, one of the premier threats of double battles, who had access to a 100% accuracy Sleep move in Spore, Rage Powder for redirection, and Clear Smog to get rid of any stat boosts that we managed to set up. On top of that, Regenerator just made it almost impossible to take Amoonguss out if it was played carefully. So yeah, when we went with a goodstuffs balanced playstyle that focused on reacting rather than acting, we ended up getting screwed over by the sheer power and bulk of Unolos. I used Azumarill back in Week 1, but without proper redirection support, it went down too fast to do any actual work. That said, I really believed in the little blue rabbit. Priority Aqua Jet meant that it could threaten Unolos’s faster, frailer pokemon, and pick up OHKOs vs Landorus-T, Diancie, Volcarona, Genesect, and basically anything fast and frail once it set up to +6 Attack with Belly Drum. My teammates didn’t believe in Azumarill because we got our asses kicked by Volcanion back in Week 1, and Volcanion had Water Absorb, which allowed it to heal from Water damage, and access to Steam Eruption and Heat Wave, both moves that could burn a physical attacker like Azumarill. For Week 3, my teammates opted for Z-Celebrate Shaymin and Z-Conversion Porygon-Z, both who get +1 to all stats from their Z moves. I decided to stick with the water bunny. However, based off what happened in Week 1, I knew I had to change things up. Azumarill definitely needed a lot of support, and my teammates constantly told me that the existence of Volcanion would make it hard for Azumarill to do any work, and that Electric Porygon-Z would be better. So, after a lot of debate and hand-wringing, I came up with this team: 

Basically, my plan was to support Azumarill/Porygon-Z as best as I could with the other 4 slots of my team. I didn’t want to run the risk of being wrong by hedging my bets on Azu, so I brought in Electric Z-Conversion Porygon-Z to sort of have a failsafe. As it turns out, I didn’t need it, and Azu really did pull through for me. So, breakdown for the team. Porygon-Z: Originally supposed to be the failsafe, the best sweeper that we could manage. Z-Conversion would change it to an electric type, which we decided after much debate would be the best type for a PoryZ to convert to. Basically the rationale was that Tbolt would pick up OHKOs on Volcanion and Genesect, while a +1 Ice Beam would definitely OHKO Landorus-T, one of the only few viable ground types we considered. Electric had a better defensive typing vs steel pokemon, and gave it a neutral typing vs things like Aegislash and Bisharp. In the end, most of the things we planned for didn’t show, and PoryZ spent most of my matches hiding in the back.  Togekiss: Supposedly my Amoonguss counter, Safety Goggles would make it immune to most of Amoonguss’s nonsense, while redirecting Amoonguss’s Spore and Clear Smog with Follow Me. I knew I couldn’t leave home without Togekiss, so it was a mainstay of the team from the start. My main worry was things like Rock Slide or Sludge Bomb, which would take it out prematurely before Azumarill or Porygon-Z had the chance to do any work. Normally I’d have tossed in more goodstuff mons to just ease the pressure of Azu or Pory doing well, but most of our goodstuff mons kinda suck so I decided to just pile on the redirection, which ended up with

Smeargle: Easily the most versatile mon we have in our arsenal, Smeargle gets access to every move that can be sketched, which means it can do anything a support mon wants to do. Fake Out was standard Smeargle fare to enable PoryZ or Azu to set up properly, Follow Me was what I needed Smeargle to do, and Spiky Shield was your normal defensive move. The last slot was a toss-up between Spore and Transform, and honestly it feels pretty bad that Smeargle is our only Spore user. However, I opted for Transform because I wanted to reduce the pressure on Azu and PoryZ if things weren’t going too well. Neither mon was super bulky and I was really putting all my bets on them so... Smeargle functioned as an alternate backup if I could pull Transform off. (HINT: I did. Many times.) Azumarill: The MVP of the team. Azumarill with Huge Power and Belly Drum has wrecked me in VGC far too many times to count, and I trusted in its power. Aqua Jet for fast kills, and Knock Off instead of Play Rough to deal with the nonsense that was Amoonguss, Aegislash, Ferrothorn, and Volcanion. (At +6 those are all OHKOs). I went with the standard VGC Azumarill because honestly, as much as Azu has 100/80/80 defenses, when it’s your sole sweeper and you need it to last like 10 turns to take out the entire 6-mon team, you need as much bulk as you can get. 

Lucario: Week 1 traumatized me when a Volcanion Sludge Bombed Azumarill and left it too weak to Belly Drum and sweep. So I looked at our Follow Me users and decided if Unolos wanted to pull that shit again, I was ready. Steel typing Follow Me was basically the only reason why I went for Lucario; to protect Azumarill. Feint was also a nice move to have to assure that Azu could nail the Aqua Jet targets it wanted to through Protect, and I went with traditional Detect to help ‘burn Fake Out/Trick Room/Tailwind turns’. Flash Cannon was advised by my teammates over Aura Sphere because of Diancie, to which I still regret because we didn’t see it this round. 

Hitmontop: As far as support Fake Outers go, Hitmontop is tough to beat. Intimidate, Fake Out, access to Wide Guard, Helping Hand, Feint... the only thing it doesn’t have is Follow Me, but with three other Follow Me users on the team, I decided on Hitmontop for some nice Wide Guard and Helping Hand support. Hitmontop was more a partner for PoryZ than Azu, but it still did its work :D

And so there we have it. I won 2-1 vs a standard team, Azumarill wrecked everything in its path that was supposed to stop it (bye bye Ferrothorn, Volcanion) and now I just need to hope the rest of my team pulls out a victory after i spent SO MUCH DAMN TIME STRESSING OVER PUTTING ALL MY EGGS IN ONE BASKET.

Making a Monotype Spikemuth Cup Team Every day until S/V drop part 3: Fire

Just wanted to say my last team (Steel Monotype v2 that is) got me to climb into the 1300s on Showdown from literally 1000, so check that one out, it's fun and really not half bad. Still wishing I could have used a Tailwind mon on that team to really wreak havoc, but I'll settle for putting Urshifu-Rapid-Strike in its place.

Okay! On to today's team, Fire type. This one starts strong with the high-use-in-this-and-every-meta Incineroar, obligatory add for any team I can fit it onto. Volcarona and Heatran are also high-usage mons, and I really want to try to pull out the self-proc of Flash Fire if I can today. Torkoal is an obligatory answer to Trick Room teams, I have less confidence in it than I did in a dynamax meta, and I don't have any chlorophyll users to take advantage of the weather unfortunately, but it should still help. Talonflame is basically mandatory with Gale Wings Tailwind really helping the middling speeds of Volcarona and Heatran achieve what they can't on their own. That leaves one spots, I thought if one intimidate is good, why not two? Arcanine has.... less utility than Incin, but bringing both to one match might be useful. Honorable mentions to: Cinderace, Entei, Alolan Marowak, Blacephalon, Turtonator (criminally and perenially underrated, can't wait to Terastalize that thing if it's in S/V), and Rotom-Heat.

Did not win the first one. Felt like Incineroar v Dragapult is not a good matchup for me. Talonflame did everything I could ask of it (i.e. set Tailwind, do some damage, and then get KO'd so I can bring something else in). Volcarona definitely has some potential, it was tanking hits quite well. Eleki, however, laughed in the face of my string shot and STILL outsped my entire team lol. Maybe the more classic Rage Powder, Quiver Dance, Heat Wave, Protect is the way to go with the moveset, I felt like Bug Buzz helps with the inevitable Indeedee-F matchup, we'll see if we encouter one of those. Arcanine and Torkoal warmed up the bench here, I think Cinderace would have been a lot more useful here. Heatran was fairly disappointing as well, but against Suicune, what can it hope to do.

This one went long, and another loss (AKA opportunity for growth lol that's the Showdown mantra). Again Talonflame was a boss, did everything it needed to do and more. In hindsight, I wish I had taunted the opposing Mandibuzz sooner, but Taunt's utility on the moveset really showed up here. Incineroar was once again sort of lackluster, I'm thinking Shuca Berry and Parting Shot is better than AV/Snarl. Entei was a huge threat on the other team, and I think is ultimately what did me in. I brought Torkoal in the back to cancel hail if they brought in Alolan Ninetales, but it ended up being the only thing on my team that could really deal with Iron Defense Body Press Kommo-o and Mandibuzz, definitely didn't expect it to perform so well. I think I had a shot with this one if I don't let the opposing Mandibuzz get off Tailwind or Roost by taunting it sooner with Talonflame, Heatran got the better of Entei eventually.

Another loss :'( this time to (what was likely but never proven to be) choice scarf Dracovish. Noting things like this is important from a Bo3 standpoint, I think my last team had great consistency, this current team not so much. It took me until this battle to realize I had given Heatran 252HP/252SpA and only 4 EV in speed which is.... certainly a bad choice lol. Incin desparately wanted Parting Shot here, but once again Talonflame outperformed my expectations, definitely staying in v2! Kangaskhan is a good choice from my opponent for a Fake Out user, definitely would have had my ghost team cornered, but I played the first two turns perfectly, absolute textbook performance. After Dracovish came in, I felt like I lost control of the game, and it sort of spiraled from there, I don't have a great answer for a Water/Dragon type on my current mono-Fire team unfortunately. I'm surprised I didn't run into any Watershifu in these three games, I feel like it sort of walks all over my team, especially with Choice Scarf next to Whimsicott, but there isn't much I can do about it besides set up my own Tailwind, hope it doesn't hit Talonflame, and then go for Brave Bird the next turn, that was my gameplan.

Some notes on the EV Spreads for v2: Talonflame with Naive nature and 236 EV in speed outspeeds Whimsicott for a possible KO with Fake Out or after matching Tailwinds. Similarly, Timid Volcarona with 236 EV in Speed outspeeds Urshifu, which I thought might be important.

After a few test battles with v2, it definitely still lacks some coverage, so much that I even considered running Electro Ball on Cinderace lol, but overall it is a much improved version of v1, and Incineroar specifically feels a lot easier to use with the updated set.

Day 278

Woke up a bit early to watch the last smash character announcement at 10. IT WAS FUCKING SORA BRO SAKURAI ACTUALLY DID IT. But also fuck nintendo so yeah it was pretty damn hype tho I was just in shock. But after that I got to work at 1050 and started the day on queue. After queue it was repair and Rachel was shadowing but she actually was opening phones and doing stuff so it was pretty chill and she was doing great. For lunch I went home and ate chicken nuggs with rice. I also bought nick all stars and played like 10 mins of it. After that I was on queue again for like an hour and then after my last 15 I was back on repair. Rachel once again were doing phones but honestly there was only like 1 or 2 so I helped take like 2 appts. I also bought a titanium series 5 from david stump cause he was gonna trade it in and it was only 145 so why not buy it?? So yeah that was fun too and closing off I was “stuck” in one that chris tennies handed off to me but it wasn’t really that bad. Just going over new phone options and she ended up buying 2 (one for her and one for husband who had multi touch issues and NEEDED a phone tonight) and then I had to check the phone in overnight while Andrew and FWE Justin sold her the phones. But I ended up doing that repair after cause nobody switched me to visuals and the start time was at 726 so I did it. I setup my watch as well and ran diagnostics and stuff and it was good. I left after a little bit early and then I went home. Got ready for gym and we met at 830. We did 6 arm workouts and skipped abs and massage cause I really wanted to play nick. Went home, rinsed and ate a 2 chicken patty sandwich that I usually do and then I started stream. Played spot pretty much the whole night, figuring out random chars and finding Aang to be my main or at least the one I have the most fun with. BZimm also came in a bit but we barely played cause he had issues so he honestly only did a bo3 with me and spot. Then Wrath came in cause we peer pressured him into buying it and we did rotations. I stopped while we were still playing and then ended up stopping completely around 130. It’s 217 and i’m watching mang0 and void play and void is probably the best aang right now so i’m gonna watch a bit more to study and then prolly sleep

Regionals update

It’a been a while since my last write up. I’ve been on the road to 6 different regionals in various locations. Since Chichester on 16 April. Since then I earned my Qualification place at Basingstoke Firestorm Cards, coming 1st. Using Earth/Wind Was two spots avavible 28 entrants. I earned first round bye at Nationals. (yaay) I also won my next regional at Choas Cards, using An Archfiends List. much smaller turn out for that one, being only ten entrants. Was still very fun to play!

Dicing on the cake and Pourtsmouth regional, I missed out on top cut both times by losing my last round in Swiss. was very unlucky on draws both times. but that’s part of the game. In B01 format, you can get really weird draws! Great prize support at both events, sadly Dicing only got 14 Entrants due to other regionals and Paris cup being on same day! There where 4 rounds of swiss i went 2-2 was 2-1 going into final round needed to win. Alas wasn’t meant to be. 

Pourtsmouth one of my favourite regionals, Good turn out I think was 30 Entrants. We hit a bit of traffic on the way there so nearly didn’t make it. A Friend missed first round due to the same traffic. Very friendly staff, run very smoothly. Amazing Prizes, shame couldn’t reach top cut on that event. 5 rounds of swiss I went 3-2 lost to Robert Phillips in a very close game in round 3. Earth/Ice and Lost to Dave Thisetlton in round 5 Water/Earth not so much of a close game haha. 3 barbras 3 diablos 3 y’sholta (opus 5)  opening 18 cards with no ping is a guarentee loss.  

The other Two regionals I went to, was Brotherhood on 12 May (Mr Cools one) which was another of my favourites run smoothly very friendly staff again, was a stream of the games  and got fed on the break. (BONUS) went 3-2 in swiss, Scrapped top cut in 8th position. Lost convincingly in top 8 match. Against Fire/Ice think was Josh Freemans list from paris so didn’t mind losing to that and I was using a tri colour Manikin deck. 

 Chichester Regional NO2  next day on 13 may.  I came 2nd losing to Mono ice discard (my nemesis) in the final. I was using Earth/Lightning Manikins for that one. Was a very fun day, 4 rounds of swiss going 3-1. losing to the eventual winner Mr Jonathan Southway. Fun matches a lot of back and fourth, was 2-1 in Bo3 he won first round, me second him 3rd. Utimately in 3rd game I lost to Cid Aulstyne, I discarded a card to play Fleeting Flash, my 3rd forward trying to swing for 3 damage, leaving me no cards in hand, I swing and good ol Cid is there to say hello on EX! I pass and get hit with another Cid..R.I.P my dear friend haha.

Zombies Chronicles random thoughts and speculation

Alright-now with the trailer having dropped and a timeline for us to sift through being in our grasp, I thought I’d lay down my ideas for what everything means (especially in the trailer), so hopefully my years upon yEARS of watching and interacting with Milo will serve me well lol.

Lets begin analyzing the trailer-

We start in the house! (oh goodie-haven’t had enough of that yet) Nothing extraordinary to point out here, but this will be my starting point by saying that I will call this Samantha-Sam(antha) 1.0 for later reference in this analytic post.

Next we get the snow globe of the house with the beginnings of an ‘Apothicon glow’ like we see on SOE(Shadows of Evil). As to why the house is now in a snowy environment I’m not sure, but I don’t think it holds major significance other to metaphorically state that the house is Samantha’s own little globe/world to admire and use.

I’m going to mostly skip out on including screenshots of the remastered maps just due to the sense that my theory/idea doesn’t require any of those screenshots-so to jump ahead lets skip past all the fly-through shots.

We’re back in the room and we just now see this ‘Apothicon glow’ somewhat surge a few times and thus blow out candles, interact with the mystery box (not shown above), and knock over the chess pieces. This is where my idea starts to come into play, for we all know now thanks for BO3 and the timeline itself that in the 1.0 storyline Samantha wasn’t the only person controlling the aether-in fact-Samantha was more so trapped and being toyed with by the Apothicons. My standing theory is that this is a visual representation of such facts. We are in Samantha 1.0′s little world and the Apothicons are whispering to her, telling her what to do, flying about and knocking things around and interacting with the world they are trying to take over. For whilst Sam 1.0 had control of what she was doing, even playing a little game (as we’ll see next) the Apothicons are becoming greedy and desperate for their 115 to finally work it’s magic and give up the Aether and Earth to them. 

(lil bonus thing here)

(I find this small sequence really cool because not only does the Panzers’ shadow resemble the teddy bear’s that we used to see on old maps, but all of the origins-related/ 2.0-related things like the staff and soldats are under the bed which highlights the idea that this is a separate ‘timeline’ from the one in the rest of the room.)

Here we see Sam 1.0 playing her ‘game,’ creating this world in which she can shape in rule with Richtofen, Nikolai, Dempsey, and Takeo 1.0 (as well as a nazi zombie in Sam 1.0′s hand). This is quite obviously a continuing parallel to the BO1 time-line. 

Then we go flying RIGHT back into the snow-globe, but I consider this significant because I think it is the showing of us entering 2.0 timeline, which is proven by- 

The battle fields of The Great War! We are now in the 2.0 storyline, a new start, but also not quite yet. 1.0 Sam is still around, still the lost little girl that our heros (PRIMIS/2.0s) need to save in the very EE of origins itself. 

The trailer then goes on to show case more maps such as Moon and Ascension, which I would believe to debunk my ‘entering 2.0 storyline,’ theory that was just previously stated, but it doesn’t debunk it in my opinion because Moon, Shangri La, and Ascension all do play part in the 2.0 storyline ( M.P.D, Focusing Stone, Gersh and all the freakin’ EEs).

During this flyby of the maps we begin to see not only a significant more amount of the undead, but a lot of corruption-as I’d call it- in the Apothicon vision, which I’d interpret as a collapse of the 1.0 storyline, or perhaps an infection growing stronger? (i.e 

this funky thing).

Then just like that we back out of the globe once more and see Sam 1.0 place it down and look at the viewer, where the Apothicon glow is whispering as she stands. 

A shit-load more flashing begins as Sam 1.0 stands and looks outward to the snowy-window, and we begin to see all these images from BO1′storyline come dragging towards Sam and then-

Poof, she’s gone. 1.0 takes the dismissed and ruinous storyline with her and leaves nothing in her wake other than the shattered figures of the O4, just as the door begins to open and reveal none other than  

Sam?!?! But fret not! It is not 1.0 back again in some strange paradox-for Blundell blessed (cursed?) us with multiple time-lines and variations thus making this little gem to be Samantha 2.0.

Samantha 2.0 (most likely just brought in by Dr. Monty after PRIMIS saved her in Origins) looks down on what has happened to her world. Her four heros have been torn apart and scattered, and all the snow has settled at the base-

She looks down in thought of what to do the fix what has been broken and do what she can to help her heros become the saviors they were always destined to be-then it hits her, what she must do and the role she must play with all her power to guide PRIMIS against the Apothicons.

She approaches the left open icy-window and slams it shut-putting an end to the cold ruling over her world that was put in place by her past self-preparing to begin a new. 

So basically, my whole point of view of this trailer is that it was a cryptic description of the zombies franchise from Samantha Maxis’ POV. I could easily be wrong though I seriously doubt this trailer will hold major significance at all in impacting further revelations within the story-but alas, thank you for reading and speculating with me, if you have thoughts of your own feel free to send em’ my way or write them in the responses?? Lol idk-happy gaming.

"Please play with me, I'm sorry about what I said"

I was playing Black ops 3 a while ago, sometime in March when this guy just started trash talking and calling me out of my name after the game ended. I never verbally attack anyone so I was pretty shocked, my friends stuck up for me, we eventually ignored the guy and got on with gaming the rest of the night.

The next day he messaged me saying sorry and he wanted to be friends. I couldn't really remember what he had said about me so I thanked him for the apology and declined the friendship invitation. He kept begging and I'm not a person who likes to tell people no, so after hours of him pestering me, I said sure, we could be friends and play some bo3 together.

His PS4 broke and he let me know, then he would send me messages asking how I was and just conversing sporadically so I wouldn't forget my promise to play with him. In June he got his PlayStation fixed. He let me know and I didn't respond.

Sometimes I go through phases where I don't want to talk to a lot of people or message anyone. So I was online later that night playing with a few friends when he joined my game and didn't say anything the whole time. I personally hate when people join my game without asking me before hand if I don't consider that person a good friend. So I didn't say anything to him and he game ended.

The next match put him on the opposing team. After we finished that game and hit the lobby, he left. He messaged me saying I didn't say hi to him. I replied, "It be like that sometimes" and he replied, "You too jealous to play with me." I didn't know what that meant so I sent him the girl shrugging emoji. That was the end of that conversation until the next day where he did the same thing.

This time he messaged me after saying I didn't reply to him when he told me his PlayStation was fixed. I said something along the lines of "honestly, talking to you gives me anxiety and stress. Do with that what you will." And he started calling me a coward and saying again that I was jealous to play with him and not my friends. I asked him if he knew what jealous meant and he slammed me with the word jealous and said he hopes my PS4 breaks like his did. I told him I had a total of 4 PS4 and an Xbox One in my house and to stop messaging me; he did.

A week or so later, he and this girl he was playing with got put in our lobby and this first thing out of his mouth is "here go this bitch." And my friends were like, "what's wrong with this dude?" I told them he was mad at me and they started laughing and asking why. I said "because I won't play with him." Then the game started. I told them a short version of what happened.

The game ended and he started trash talking again and calling me names because we lost. The next round he says he can beat me like he did last game. We end up winning that with him going 11-17. Then I make a slick comment like "oh, didn't he say he was gon beat me like last game?" And my friends join in. He says to meet him on his map. The girl he's with says to ignore us 'cause we're lame.

We play on Nuke town, I was destroying him, but my team got split up because my friend said to back out of the game, two of us said no, we wanted to play the guy again. The friend that stayed knows how I play and ended up on the opposing team with the guy. She kept killing me and I ended up losing that game. Our other two friends joined in at the end and landed on my team. The guy started trash talking and said "let me grab a screenshot." I was talking to my friend telling her if she wasn't on that team I would have won. After we got back to the lobby, he and the girl left.

He sent me the screenshot and wrote negative a bunch of times on it. It showed me having 27 kills, 26 deaths. I said "who negative? Where do you see that at? You just sent me a picture of me going positive." I insulted his ability to understand numbers, vocabulary words like 'jealous', and the fact that he doesn't know how to write grammatically, because it was hard to understand some of the stuff he texted me before.

He said I lost more times that I won and I died 26 times. I informed him my death count is almost always high, but so is my kill count so he shouldn't feel extremely proud of himself like he just did the impossible. He continued to call me jealous, said I wasn't "girl enough" to play with him. I called him childish because he was harassing me for saying I didn't want to play with him, he needed to learn how to accept rejection from women without getting aggressive if he wanted to be a man. He continued to message me and I sent him a semi long message saying to leave me alone. He said he wasn't going to read it, so I said it's because we both know he can't read. He challenged my friends and I to a private game where he would also bring people.

After our match we invited him to a private game, he didn't come after more than 5 minutes of us waiting so I told him to leave me alone and stop messaging me, take the wins you got and be content with your life. The next day I blocked him and left the conversation of the messages we were sending.
