RHEA RIPLEY at WrestleMania XL (April 6, 2024)

I can get why yutus so afraid of azul. He's heard a hundred stories about a suave, smug, but clingy octopus and then he meets him and hes this possessive little swinderler who's trying to get him to sell his soul to him and fuck his parent lmao

referencing the tags on this ask about this au

Tako Yutu didn't have the easiest time as a kid.

He was a chubby little thing raised by a single parent who didn't have the clearest memories of his father, or of their past at all really. I wrote Yuu and Yutu as being a sort of outcasts in the community because people thought they were strange, and were skeptical of Yuu's amnesia. Azul! Yutu was really bothered by that, much like his dad he got bullied and sought solace in books, but unlike him Yuu decided to enroll Yutu in some martial arts classes and hey. He was pretty good at those, his submission holds are real bad news, even won him some competitions. But he's not some muscle head even if he sort of looks like one (he didn't really drop his baby weight so much as he did bulk up) so when he gets his first real look at his father... everything in him is screaming that this guy is sketchy. He knows that Azul and the twins are watching him even if he can't see it outright and to make matters worse, when he asks his parent about him they make a face. A face Yutu knows well that he thought was reserved for the annoying nosy couple who lived next door to you and not his father. His father who Yuu's few memories had made sound wonderful; his father who was supposedly talented and hard working, smart and proud of it, but so desperately in love with his parent they still longed for him with broken memories in a completely different world. His father who Yuu had said he was so much like.

"He's not a bad guy." Yuu says and Grim huffs.

"Don't listen to them Henchuman 2." Yutu has no idea how he feels about Grim calling him that. "Azul's reeeeeeeal bad news. If he's interested in ya' it can only mean one thing, he's after your tuna and he's after your magic."

"That's two things." A smooth voice says at the same time he does and for once, Yutu sees surprise on Azul's face when he tries to make eye contact and not carefully calculated confidence.

"Well they do say great minds think alike." His father says and extends a hand. "But I must say you didn't strike me as the shy type, it is Yutu right?" The way he says it, the way he shakes his hand, Yutu knows he at least suspects him. So he smiles and makes sure to make his handshake just a touch too firm when he responds.

"That's right." Yutu is impressed that Azul doesn't flinch even slightly when he pulls back his hand, if anything his little action makes his smile wider. "And not so much shy as just curious and knowing better than to poke my nose where it doesn't belong."

"Not until you've asked anyway." Azul really isn't content with letting him remain ambiguous, he thinks nervously glancing back to Yuu. "But still there really is no need to bother the prefect over such trivial things, if you have questions about me you can just pay me a visit at the Mostro Lounge. My door is always open to poor unfortunate souls such as yourself." Azul smiles at him and adjusts his glasses and Yutu is... impressed even if the thought of being alone with this man terrifies him. But he's going to have to be eventually, Azul really wants to talk to him for some reason and Yutu finds himself wondering if he's going to find it possible to lie, or just what price he will be expected to pay to have the privilege of keeping his secrets.

But when he looks at the way Azul talks to Yuu... he isn't sure if he likes it but he does find it funny. Azul is so horrendously down bad and Yuu is so unaware of it (there's a part of him that thinks Azul might be a little bit jealous of him which he finds really funny). And Yutu understands why Yuu likes Azul so much. He is everything they remembered him being: smart, ambitious, and motivated. It makes him a little more secure in his existence even if he doubts that Azul will like having a son like him. But that's ok too because a son like him is exactly what's needed to make sure his parents get to stay together in this timeline.

now if only he can convince him to stop bugging him for his real name

Boy, been a while hasn't it! Here's the stages:

There was going to be an alternate shading/lighting attempt for a different time of day, but I'm just. Not feelin it, honestly. (I also accidentally smoothed what was meant to be my rough shading file, so I had to commit.)

So have u seen marc getting dragged into the ducati box, on enea’s seat? Not even a mind game there but just crushing ur rival till the end. A lil bit cruel, a lil bit careless, a very marc thing to do

Just for everyone saying he keeps the fight on track, he does but he can also play very well with the narratives

no I did not see... I did some creative searching on reddit and twitter with its extremely broken search function and I think this is what you're referring to? did he literally sit on bastianini's chair? in general... uh. I don't see things unless they are dropped in my inbox or happened twenty years ago... pls. a link

anyhow. it is pretty inconsiderate but it's also not like. the height of psychological warfare, is it. just someone used to being the centre of attention surrounded by people who are used to him being the centre of attention - reflected in the eagerness of factory ducati to welcome him. one who doesn't give a shit about most people, including bastianini. barely even counts as crushing your rival because bastianini is basically competitively irrelevant from now on, like the question of whether this would bother that guy probably doesn't even register. you could say it's aimed at pecco, but that bloke's had two weeks to make his peace with losing the title and probably welcomes the chance to focus on what comes next

obviously the act of inserting yourself into this new team and this aggressive borderline performative cheerfulness marc's been shooting for this year does have an ulterior motive. and yeah, marc does play with that! he's gotten very boisterous, very much about asserting himself, emphasising again and again and again how much fun he's having. inevitably draws the attention to himself. it's a kind of weaponised joy, one without compromise or care for those left in the shadows. you perform your way to winning, right. and, well, I suppose he learnt that from the best. a bit cruel and a bit careless is a decent enough characterisation... this idea that marc keeps his fights on-track is silly but would also make him more boring than he is if it were true. he's there to win, and sometimes you're going to be a bit tacky and a bit crass along the way. the joys of competition

[hermitcraftx]

just got a dm abt one of my posts and y'all please don't try and show the hermits (or any minecraft youtuber or content creator for that matter) my posts, i'm uncomfortable with it and don't want any of my posts shown to a cc. if they stumble upon it naturally that's unfortunate but i can live with it since i do maintag a lot (something i REALLY need to stop doing tbh i already know i need to make a tagging system just for my blog that wont clog results) but going out of ur way to show a cc is entirely different and something i am not comfortable with.

no hate to the person at all but even if i wasn't a little silly and weird with it sometimes i wouldn't be comfortable with it, i want my blog to be a purely fandom only space with none of the creators involved <3 please respect this

tango mentioned something on stream last night that I hadn't really thought of that we should maybe pay more attention to for fear of history repeating itself [re. QSMP]. are the admins/mods/snails getting paid for what they're doing? I know tubbo asked his twitch mods if they wanted to be snails (does he pay his mods? he makes jokes about unpaid labour) but we don't want this to turn into a qsmp eggs thing where people are not getting fairly compensated for their labour. (this is a bit of a different scenario I think, as people aren't being asked to write stuff or create content but still) and I know it's difficult to answer the question of who pays their wage or compensates them, but I think it is a question worth answering or pushing for an answer to.

Anyone else remember the little 88x31 buttons from older internet days? I've been remembering them a lot lately.

I make ffxiv ones in msp when I'm in queue or my bf is flying me around between quests.

Random thing that annoys me for no reason is when people make human au Maul and they make him white. Why would you do that to him. What do you have against brown punks who kill.

Tiny reliquary update: I got toothpicks and now I can get the main body of this thing put together! I wish I had my callipers though, they’re in my toolbox back at my mum’s place and they would make taking these tiny measurements so much easier but at least I have my steel rules :’)
