Ppl really need to start talking about Matt's depressive thoughts in 01. Im watching Ep44 rn and listening to him talk about how he feels worthless since t.k. is growing up and 'doesn't need him anymore' is just wow. He talks about how he wants to change and get stronger, etc, so he'll have more value to the team since he believes everyone has evolved in their own ways except for him. He feels bad about always blowing up at people. He feels like the crest of friendship isn't really right because he doesnt think he belongs in the group anymore. I think wondering about your worth and place in the world, or even a smaller group, is something that everyone has questioned at some point or another. It's one of the things I love about digimon. It's very realistic. A lot of kids shows with child main characters don't usually show the flaws in their life. They don't show the affects saving the world over and over again and constantly fighting has on a child like digimon does. I think digimon also has sooo many very angsty plot lines, but nobody really talks about them. Gotsumon and pumpkinmons 'deaths(?)', the dark ocean (surprisingly), Kari getting sick, the several times where the kids are being literally manipulated (like with demidevimon/literally everyone, Matt/Cherrymon, etc). And don't even get me started on tri cause so much shit happened, and it was terrible for the kids, but i never see anyone talk about it. Like the chosen children must be so traumatized from all the years of violence.

RELATIVITY FALLS!

basically: gravity falls but the stan twins are kids and mabel and dipper are the adults in the plot of gravity falls

as well as that, I wanted to switch the villians. Bill is human and takes the place of gideon, and instead of obsessing over mabel he pursues ford (he's twelve as well lol. BILLFORD FOREVER!!!)

whereas gideon takes the place of bill, a chaos god (maybe i'll make him the shape of the star on his telepathy tent instead of a triangle, or I might tweak his human design a bit, idrk) who's obsessed with mabel.

people always put dipper in the place of ford (in the portal) bc he's a nerd, but to suit the switch of villans, mabel is getting sucked into the multiverse!

I like to think she got lulled into a false sense of security with gideon like in the show in the same way ford was with bill, but with fashion instead of science. (like when their still friends w lil gid and gideon brings her to get her nails n stuff done)

so in my au mabel is very into fashion the same way ford is into science, a prodigy with a insane talent for knitting, sowing, design, the whole shabang

while dipper is similar to the usual show, nerdy sci-fi obsessed wise guy but nothing too crazy

but together mabel and dipper solved mysteries in california together and someday dream of becoming "the mystery twins" and searching (in parallel to the stans) on a hot air balloon/ plane/ something sky related

but mabel gets offered a place in a big league fashion school, and they're going to come and see her project for the school fashion fair

dipper (like stan) is disgruntled by the dress interrupting their dreams and future together (parallel to dipper and mabel vs to the show. kind of)  and puts his hands on the dress angrily without thinking, staining the dress with his sweaty palms (like how stan is in the show, and how ford described him in journal three: "an abnormally sweaty 12 year old....perhaps he takes after stanley")

when the fashion gurus or whatever show up to see mabels design, they see the prints and dimiss her, ruining her chance at getting into her dream school. seeing the sweaty hand marks, thinks immediately of her brother, confronts him, the same as the scene in a tale of two stans essentially

d: "i...mabel, maybe this isnt all bad...at least we can go...be the mystery twins?"

m: "how could you say that?! why would I want to do anything with the person who sabotaged my future!"

so where does mabel go to college? you (probably) guessed it...backupsmore!

she begins a degree...yadayada, smart people stuff, clever references to the original show, blah blah blah, goes to college with candy and grenda (they take the place of mcgucket)

annnnd now a scene I over thought way too much) all her life, mabel had been teased for her crooked teeth, her messy hair, her stickers and glitter everywhere...etc, and she grew fascinated with beauty in imperfection, the whole maximalism, out of the ordinary/norms of fashion (the ford deciding to study abnormalities bc of his six fingers scenece is so important to me for no reason)

she grew curious of a certain place where the impossible seemed possible...

gravity falls! (how surprising)

and what, my dear reader, was our main man dipper up to?

well, much like stan, he struck gold in sales. or...selling by yourself anyway, as he'd been trying to selling his scifi abnormality comics, board games, fact books/ something like that bro. he was smart-ish, giving lectures ab science-y stuff in different colleges, not happy at all and js about providing for himself. he misses mabel...alot.

over with mabel, she's experimenting with the weirdness of gravity falls, enjoying it all with her friend, gideon! (spoiler alert: he sucks)

but at the end of the day...what is she waiting for? she can't just...be good....she has to remembered! to be put down history as...one of the greatest designers of all time! heck...what is she even working for if not to be put down in history? what has she studied for? she has to round of her studies with a bang!

luckily gideon has a few ideas...

g: you see...what if...you built a portal to another dimension? has any designer ever done that before? sent their models and crew to another universe? think...how you'd go down...the most revolutionary name in fashion! you'd be leading fashion AND science!"

(tw: this is a trick on gideons part lol)

mabel enlists the help of candy and grenda, blablabla whatever...mcgucket/ford situation all over again, someone sees the nightmare realm, traumatised forever, yadayada, mabel goes insane bc gideon is "less than nice..." (can you tell I'm getting lazy lmao)

dipper is just ab scraping by, making money by doing lectures and the like, hopping state each time he loses a job with a new name so he can work for another prestigious college w out the track record and trying to publish his scifi silly novel thingy when he gets a post card through the door of his motel:

°•.GRAVITY FALLS.•°

please come, -mabel

dipper makes his way to gravity falls, where mabel is immediately suspicious of him, checking his eyes to see if he's possessed, barbed grappling hook ready to shoot and looking very much like a crazed scientist rather then a fashion designer, and perhaps that's what she's become, moulded under gideons hand

she interrogates him, similarly to how ford interrogated stan:

m: *grappling hook ready to shoot* "HEY! WHO ARE YOU? HAVE YOU COME TO STEAL MY EYES?-"

d: "weird way to say welcome in, mabel"

hurring him in, she checks his eyes, lalalalala...mabel promptly shows him the third journal, branded with a shooting star.

m: "it's.. I don't know enough about science...me and candy, grenda, we started, i've put my heart and soul into these, dipper, but he needs them, and he can't have them, never...if he does..."

d: "god, mabel, I always knew you were crazy, but this is a whole new level. I thought you came here for fashion?"

blabla, backstory explanation to eachother (im this 🤏 close to giving up) when mabel pops the big question

m: "remember our plans...the mystery twins, adventuring in the skies, on a plane?"

dipper is really excited, this is the moment, all this science stuff, it was preparation for-

m: "get on a plane, fly as FAR away from here as possible, to the ends of the earth, and hide the journal-"

d: "wait...that's IT? I finally see you for the first time in YEARS and the first thing you want me to do is get as far away from you as possible?"

m: "listen-"

d: "no, YOU LISTEN. im excited to see my sister after a decade and you want me out of your sight? im just about scraping by while you're living it up in your fancy house in the woods doing fashion-glam shit! you think you've got it bad? i've got a MULLET, mabel! im trying my best to survive while you're all cushy in the woods-"

m: "you don't know what I've been through!-"

d: "what YOU'VE been through? I've lost my job in SEVERAL different states, while you're selfishly hoarding your college money-"

m: "ME? SELFISH? how could you say that after costing me my DREAM SCHOOL?

a bit more squabbling, basically the scene in a tale of two stans. in this au dipper isn't born with his big dipper mark on his forehead, rather he gets it burned onto his forehead the way stan gets his tattoo, mabel pauses, "im so sorry dipper-" gets pushed, the portal starts turning on, dipper pushes her away.

d: "tch, "mystery twins." how could I be so stupid? here's a simple mystery; why did mabel's brother travel four hours to roadkill oregon for her? because he thought his sister CARED for him. wanted to see him, even. possibly because he missed her. but dont worry, it wont happen again. some sister you turned out to be."

he does the whole push into the portal, ahhh mabel come back, oh no what have i done thingy. he immediately tries to opperate it, fails, blablabla. when he realises shes gone and not coming back, he screams, for a minute, half an hour, an hour, he doesn't know, he just cant do anything else.

doesn't sleep. for a long time. he doesn't really move off the couch, actually. he eats so he doesn't faint. or sleep. he doesn't go anywhere so he doesn't have to fix himself up or wash, because he feels he doesn't deserve the luxury of self care or nice food or comfort or rest. but eventually the food runs out and he decides he can't die without bringing back his sister.

at the shop, it's the same scene as with stan, "oooh smart science-y fashion person, do u give tours?" he has no money so he has to, it's shit at first but improves over time and so the mystery shack is born.

as much as dipper always loved the supernatural, he decides that he doesn't want another run in with the portal/ paranormal accident so all the attractions are fake. dipper is just as stressed and unhappy as before, but the tight clockwork of his life keeps him together. make money with the shack, save mabel. that's all that's keeping him here.

until the stan twins show up!

Hello, meet my nuzi baby, Neo!!!!

Translating my shitty handwriting one sec:

Neo Doorman

She's outgoing but also pretty introverted. She finds it easy to get along with people and is pretty well liked, but it quickly becomes a drain on her.

I'm not sure what the name of her style is, I just based it on how I dressed in elementary/middle school. I think it might be scene???? Idrk XD!

Her personality is like if N had Uzi's gremlin energy. She doesn't go out of her way to be violent, but she isn't above using it when the situation calls for it *glomps you to death*.

That being said, she likes pranking people and causing problems on purpose.

Hope this makes sense LOL

[sweaty-toothed-mad-woman]

dps theory

something that never made sense to me in dps is that none of the boys blamed themselves. like we all knew that it was Mr Perry’s fault and they knew it too but ik that ppl tend to feel guilty even if it’s not their fault

and so I think that they all felt guilty but never said it outright

BUT that’s not what this post is about lol

I was thinking about how they all follow Todd outside after they tel him bc they knew that he would take it rly hard

and after Todd stops Charlie gives this look

and it got me thinking, what if they followed him out so that they could make sure he wouldn’t do anything bad in case he blamed himself? like he went out there to see the dock bc of the ye art thou there scene but like the other poets don’t know that. so they’re making sure Todd doesn’t do anything he’ll regret, but once Todd says “it was his father” they realize that he doesn’t blame himself—or at least Charlie does—so that’s why they let Todd run out to the dock

this is just a theory idrk

helloo !! i was wondering if u could write anything that has finn wolfhard and reader.

- 🗡️

ooo sure! thank you for requesting 🗡!! ; I just randomly thought of this somehow so hopefully this makes any sort of sense? idrk tbh I'm just trying to write something lol ; also ty for the message you sent!! I promise I saw it haha, I just deleted it because I was flustered and upset over a million things (guys if it involves any sort of politics don't comment even if you're right bc some rando will make it ab them and call you a brainwashed moron) but thank you, I appreciate it a lot 🫶🫶🫶

"What are you looking for?"

You shrug, flipping through CDs among the shelves, looking for anything you'd be interested in. He nods, looking through the records section with you.

You decided to hit up a random Goodwill you found while passing through the town, wanting to see if you could find anything good. He'd found a thin jacket, colored dark blue with white stripes, with small, white lettering on the front that spelled out certified guitar guy. It was only seven dollars, so he decided it was a need over a want.

He pulls out a few records, looking at the condition of the actual vinyls and the covers to see if the money was even worth it. You continue scanning through the CDs, looking for anything that would grab your eye. After no luck with the music search, you head back to the clothing section since Finn had begged you to. They had the heat, he said.

You couldn't doubt his comment after finding a one of a kind t-shirt though. It originated probably from 2013 or something, featuring a weird picture of MGK on the front, with neon red text that was 100% written by some parasocial fangirl.

Finn holds up his phone camera, snapping a picture of you holding the shirt to your chest, posing with it. He captions it "this Goodwill has the heat" before posting it to Instagram. You quietly laugh it off, searching for anything you'd actually wear.

You end up finding some good clothes, him as well. But there were definitely some honorable mentions. Some of those included a navy blue grandma-core shirt with a drawing of a sun and moon on it, colored a weird shade of yellow. Another pictured a SpongeBob meme, which nearly killed Finn, and you'd found a similar one to that, being a jacket with printed on fabric.

"Who donated their Temu order, guys?" You laugh, holding up the weird jacket and matching fake denim pants to show Finn.

"That's insanely disgusting." He smiles, looking away to not throw up at the sight of the hideous fast fashion.

You hang the two items back up, also not wanting to look at them. You fade into the random decor section, seeing the usual donation items. You cover your mouth to hide a smile before grabbing something, turning around to show Finn.

"Finn..."

"Oh my God"

"Who's wannabe biker mom died?"

"I don't know"

You hold up a little kitchen sign, reading something about motorcycles, guns, and Donald Trump, laughing as you put it back down, using a set of pots to cover it up.

You pose next to an old grandfather clock in the back corner, pointing up at it with an Instagram worthy smile. "Stranger Things who?"

"We're leaving"

"Damnit"

"What is that...?"

"A chair shaped like a banana"

"Okay, let's go."

my guesses on who in twice is a homo!!!

note: these are literally just assumptions. I'm not insisting they ARE lesbian/bi/straight I'm just saying what I think based on things I've picked up on over the years. I'll add my reasoning for each guess after. once again these are ASSUMPTIONS and not fact I could be wrong for every single member. this is all just for fun please don't bet your life on this.

nayeon: imma be real I think she's bi, some of her mannerisms/actions seem not very straight to me. I get that being touchy is common there but there's a difference between being touchy and disguising interest as being touchy. pretty sure she also said gender doesnt matter but idk what context that was in so i won't consider it fully. I'm not 100% sure but yeah I wouldn't be surprised if it was revealed she was bi.

jeongyeon: she's def interested in guys. the lack of her being interested in women makes me assume she's straight. I think that ppl just started calling her gay bc she has a short hairstyle when debuting and bc a lot of women like her.

momo: straight/bi. I think it may be like jeongyeon where a lot of women like her so the homo-ness kinda translates over to momo herself, but also she seems to rlly be into certain actresses. I have other reasons but idk if they're true/too risky to decide rn + i can't think of anything rn. but ya I have a small hunch that she COULD be bi.

sana: I am a genuine believer that sana is, in fact, gay. during twice private life ep.7 from 2016 you can see sana's boredom. she barely talked at all which is very unusual. when she did it was usually very basic stereotypical stuff (e.g. saying her ideal date would be "going on a walk, riding a bike..." it seemed like she was just throwing out ideas from her tone. she also never brought up her hypothetical "boyfriend" during the activites while other members such as jeongyeon did). I wrote a lot so a few honourable mentions: fan of soljiwan, "when I watch tv I'm more attracted to the women", her old twitter account, "more female fans want to marry me" (projection), I can't think of anything else rn.

oh yea and the reason I don't think she's interested in/dating dex is bc if you actually watch the latest interview, it seems like dex hasn't gotten at all less nervous. they don't seem to be dating. dex just seems like a fanboy. he says so himself in the giselle interview that he thinks that if he contacted her he doesn't think she'll respond. I think sana in the dex interview was just taking the opportunity to flirt with a guy who was very clearly into her for entertainment purposes and my god I wrote a lot can you tell i made this whole post for sana ok next person

jihyo: straight. idrk what more to add just use your head

mina: her charming aura messes with my senses and may I just say I have no idea. she checks out girls a lot more than usual but?? idk that's too vague to determine. momo does the same. during the private life she was also quiet and didn't talk, but didn't seem bored out of her mind like sana. that could just be her quiet nature tho. idk if anyone has any reasons for anything lmk. but for now I'll say: undecided.

dahyun: straight.

chaeyoung: bi. she 100% likes girls let's not kid ourselves. the flirting/changing lyrics to female pronouns/singing born this way/etc- and honestly? take this with a grain of salt but I genuinely do think that she might've had a crush on mina a few years back- then it faded but the michaeng ship didn't. everything after a certain point in time is fanservice. idk this is all speculation, I'm basing it off when she did those "gay" things. but I also think she liked guys since she mentioned how timothee chalamet was her type ("guys who look sick") which we can uhh clearly see in zion.t. she was also really into the twice private life (keep in mind it was during 2016- less media training and before michaeng) and actively talked and participated during the choosing a bf game (idk what else to call it lol). anyways yeah that's why I knew she was a boyliker shoutout to me for calling it.

tzuyu: straight. she's had a crush on a guy before and shows no interest in women you know what that means!

I don't do tarot readings a lot so I'm not well versed in them. I'd love 2 hear meanings 👀

okok obv tarot has been around a long time and everyone interprets them their own way but this is like. a general reading

so for tubbo's past the magician represents willpowers, self-empowerment, and creative passion which. i dont need to explain how that works thats a pretty accurate read. for present the ten of cups is supposed to mean a being in a time of happiness or having cause to celebrate. town of fobo maybe??? for future reversed queen of pentacles could mean being possessive or manipulative. it could also mean poverty since the upright queen of pentacles relates to wealth. its fobover?

for pac's past judgement is pretty much what it sounds like. it means consequences of the past, change, renewal, etc. makes sense for pac i would say (specifically here im thinking of consequences of the past relating to cell/cellbit and fuga impossível, but a lot of things could fit here). for present death also means pretty much exactly what it sounds like, representing ending an era, change, transformation, and serving as a reminder to work on moving on from unhealthy attachments. lots of change themes w pac in these cards lol. for future reversed six of swords means feeling trapped or overwhelmed, or feeling like youre making little to no progress. maybe a failure in the change from the earlier cards?

for fit's past reversed ten of pentacles can be summed up to holy shit my financial situation is a disaster. i mean. 2b2ts probably not the wealthiest of places. for present the king of wands is meant to be like. your classic hero. a big part of it is confidence in being a leader. idrk what to say here but it makes sense i think. for future the seven of wands it. the basic card design is literally somebody standing on a hill fighting off somebody below him. 3/12/24 followup stream enough said.

bagi's read is really interesting to me just cus i dont think ive ever done a read and gotten all one suit before??? anyways for past the five of swords suggests conflict and all the negative emotions typically associated with that. bagi and cellbits rocky relationship maybe ??? or conflict with the feds following empanadas death ??? for present the page of swords represents curiosity, alertness, and inspiration which makes sense with her being a detective and all. for future the reversed two of swords means arriving at a stalement and having difficulty choosing between things. bagi might be having some big decisions coming up shes not prepared for

[luxsf]

Just a rant about Travis mischaracterization in sally face (salvis) fanfiction (Please don't take this post too seriously if you are a fanfiction writer I love you and we should just get married <33)

This is mainly about salvis (sal x travis) fanfiction btw and it kinda goes along with a post I made talking about how the fandom treats Travis and I am gonna make a post about the mischaracterization of sal soon as well (I know I am spelling so many words wrong lmao) BEGINNING OF RANT: Why do so many fanfic writers make travis some uwu shy boy?!?!?! I feel like Travis wouldnt be "Shy" when he is trying to be nice I feel like he would just sound agressive when he speaks if that makes sense. Idk why everyone just got the idea that Travis (after the bathroom scene in episode three) would just become shy or quiet. Like he was loud and not shy when he was bullying sal but all of a sudden he become shy and anxious?!?! that makes no sense to me. Also I am not trying to say that you cant write travis like this because in reality he was only in the game for like a few minutes but idk its just something that bugs me for some reason. I dont really care if you see travis like this btw live your truth king (or queen or wtv idrk) I am just saying in most salvis fics I have read travis is always just so....not travis lol. Btw I am not trying to shit on any persons writing because I do see a lot of this mischaracerization (idk if I can even call it that tbh but I cant really think of any other word for it) in peoples writing and I dont wan it to look like I am shitting on their work. I am not a writer but I do know that commiting to writing an entire work based off of one of your intrests takes talent and dedication so I am not trying to sound rude to any of those people because I respect them a lot, I just think it is weird how people see travis after the bathroom scene because when I first played the game I thought he would probably just be more nice ig. But still be pretty aggresive or rude lol. Its kinda hard to explain how I see travis acting but it definitly isnt like how I see everyone else portraying him so I just thought I would share. END OF RANT: (Holy woah this is a long ahh post so I am so sorry for that lol but thanks for reading ig also fanfic writers once again lets get married plzzz) I reqlly hope this post makes sense aaaaaaaa :')

More Twst x pkmn!

Dustox feels almost obligatory to me atp, and Dipplin is there bc of the poison apple. The rest are there for the queen aspect of Vil’s character, tho I def considered the poison aspect too. And, side note, but his Gardevoir is definitely a male one.

Decidueye is another obvious one, as it’s a bird archer, kinda like Rook! (Rook, as in the bird.) (Also I’m just now remembering that I was thinking about giving him a Bisharp to reference the rook chess piece, but it’s not that important. Oh well) Vivillion bc it just feels like a Rook pkmn, and it’s the “High Plains” form bc Rook’s from Sunset Savanna. Zoroark is there bc I wanted a pkmn that could blend into the background like Rook could (*cough cough* stalker *cough cough*) so, Zoroark. Leavanny bc Rook is also very like, nurturing, if that makes sense. Similar vibes 👍 Swoobat bc again, it just reminded me of him, then finally Pheramosa bc I wanted Rook to have an odd pkmn. One that makes you go, “why tf do you have that?” And Ultrabeasts are a good type of pkmn for that idea. I also wanted Rook to have at least one fighting type, again for the archery thing and bc he used to be in Savannaclaw, but Pheramosa also just slays, so it’s a good Rook pkmn

For Epel, I honestly wanted to give him every single applin evo (Flapple, Appleton, even Hydrapple) but that’d take up to many slots, so he only gets Flapple. Buneary is due to his connections with bunnies in canon (this card is proof of that!) so I wanted to give him a bunny pkmn too. I feel like his buneary has been one of his oldest partners, but he doesn’t want a Lopunny, so he gave his Buneary an everstone. I feel like part of his character development would be letting Buneary evolve :). Frosmoth is cause he’s from a cold area, and I just thought it fit him. Croagunk is a poison/fighting type, and both of those are very Epel-like to me. Varoom is another poison type, but also Epel likes blastcycles, so I thought it fit. (I also realized that I should’ve given Deuce a Cyclizar, tho I’m not sure who I’d switch out, oh well) Dubwool is there mainly to fill out the rest of his team lol (maybe I should’ve given him an Applin-)

Bonus rounds!

I’m not really sure what I’d explain here. Maybe that his name, Neige LeBlanche literally translates to Snow White bc Neige=Snow & Blanc(he)=White, and so Snow=Ice type? Idk, easy picks

(The image is a little distorted so it’d fit better in the slot I was using, so if they look off, that’s why)

Idrk what to say. Dominic has a Honedge bc in the EN of Harvenston, the Seven Dwarf’s team was called “Seven Swords”

I could see Grum with Mankey’s evolved form too, but I forgot the name of it and didn’t feel like searching for it

From his description, I thought a fun little MimeJr. fit Toby well

Similar vibes. Sorta. I vibe with it.

Hop has music notes in his hair. They both seem chatty?

I just thought it fit him, honestly. Good vibes 👍

I want to give the evolved form of Munna to Silver, so Shelpie gets the unevolved form

That’s all I got, we don’t know enough about them for me to give them any better picks 🤷‍♀️😅

[daily-linkclick]

What is the theory abt lg being from an alternate timeline? I’ve been seeing a lot of ppl talk about it and idrk where it comes from, and what are your thoughts??(have a nice day!!)

this ask magically appeared in my inbox just today but apparently it was sent weeks ago, holy shit! thank you for waiting op LMFAO

anyways, it's a theory that's been around before season 2, iirc! mostly because we had little to nothing lore wise around their powers, and its just fun thinking about while we waited for anything canon. there were a few things that did hint at lu guang being from an alternative timeline, being that we don't know his age and backstory, and his weird hair color (not a lot of people sporting full white hair, or any unnatural hair color in link click, at least)

those aspects don't necessarily point to him being from an alternate timeline, but they also could be hints towards it! but there's new content that makes this theory potentially canon! it's from this music video played during Bilibili World. it features an alternate mv for vortex, which is interesting because we see lu guang falling first:

in it, there are several shots with cheng xiaoshi wearing completely different outfits, some injured and one seemingly dead? Plus a frame that shows four cxs's merging into one. maybe it's just ooo pretty visuals, but there's a looot of imagery that implies different timelines (shard fractals, reflections, mirror images, etc)

There's also this shot, with lu guang wearing an alternate fit we've never seen - and he's wearing more black in this one?? his s1 fit also featured a dark shirt and pants but his flannel color was more dominant. this leads me to believe that this is lu guang but less experienced (another timeline).

maybe all of this is just non-canon for marketing, they did market lu guang as dead for all of pre-s2 lol, but i like to believe this is them teasing lu guang's past! even if he's the main character, he's someone who's past we know the least of. i'd argue we find out more about side characters than we do about him actually - which makes me (and a lot of other people) think he's from an alternate timeline!

that's the gist; i'll put my own thoughts under a read more so this post won't be insanely long

my own thoughts on the theory is that i think lu guang is from multiple alternate timelines. the frame with multiple cheng xiaoshis, and the one where four merge into one makes me believe lu guang met cheng xiaoshi in his timeline, but cxs either died or had a miserable life. he kept going into different timelines in an attempt to save him / be in a timeline where cheng xiaoshi is actually safe and happy, and finally got to the timeline we see in the show.

though that part requires him having more than just the power to look into what happens in a photo. but there's been proof of lu guang hiding what he knows / has with cheng xiaoshi (re: him hiding the fact emma died, and him hiding the photo that liu tianchen gave him). he's also an incredibly private person. if he hides from his closest friend, who's to say he isn't hiding something from the audience either?

we also don't know how they got their powers. if lu guang originally had the power to dive back into pictures, then it would make sense on how he's able to go to different timelines. also, studio lan clearly emphasizes the fact that the pair are two halves of a whole, and the show is more interesting because of that dynamic.

as an extra: lu guang's doting nature makes a lot of sense too, he just doesn't want to see cheng xiaoshi miserable again! it's a pretty known fact that cheng xiaoshi didn't have any friends (besides qiao ling) before lu guang, and his life insantly got better when they finally were a trio (interesting that it was mainly because of a mysterious person that popped out of nowhere). here's a fun twitter thread by t3mp0s about the trio's dynamic

lastly, i just think it'd be fun if at one point cheng xiaoshi slowly discovers what lu guang did in his past for him. and how hypocritical lu guang would sound after saying "past or future, leave them be" if he never applied that to cheng xiaoshi! either way i still want to see a cxs saving lg arc man... they keep teasing it EVEN IN THE MV

that's it!! i know link click's best quality is the trio going through other people's stories, but i think they're preparing us for the biggest one: lu guang's.

give me your headcanons brother i want to hear u cook. if u want a prompt uhhhh… gimme dreamtale headcanons.

ooooh omg!!! ok soooo i kind of have a lot of weird hcs surrounding their powers… idrk that much about dreamtale canon and most of them come frm me trying 2 make treatise have a somewhat consistent magic system/plot motive if that makes sense?

anyway it might get long sooo going under the cut:

dream is always at 100% of his power whereas nightmare is always around… less than half. this is because their capacity 4 magic is different based on the amt of apples they consumed! nightmare can use a lot more magic because he can contain more magic (which makes him a lot more powerful in terms of brute force) but he kind of lacks the ability to control how much he uses because its such a large quantity of power and one that he didnt have the ability to properly ‘grow into’ over time... also, because he’s constantly at less than half of his full ‘energy’, he’s perpetually exhausted so he doesnt exactly… train lol. hes basically just hitting the stars w a strategically minded rock until they leave him alone

on the flip side of that dream has a lot less capacity for magic (around 0.1% of nightmare’s theoretical ‘maximum’) but has learned how to conserve it AND replenish his reserves quickly (i.e. skimming off the top of an AU’s emotional state) so he doesnt instantly burn himself out. he does feel pretty good all of the time due to being topped out on magic constantly.. though i feel like his ability 2 sense negative emotions is stunted bcs hes actively trying 2 stay away frm them. i think negative emotions hurt dream more than positive ones hurt nm bcs again the quantities of magic they have is different… its like having 1 drop of coloured water in the sea vs in an eyedropper

sooo anyway!!! given this lore the main reason for their conflict (in my mind/treatise) is that dream has to guess how positive the multiverse is whereas nightmare essentially knows (he can gauge it based on how exhausted/energised he is) and therefore can just assume it’s too far in the negative if the pool he samples from is too biased, and nightmare just doesn’t want to be constantly exhausted from fighting. so he tries to make more aus negative. which leads to more fighting. which leads to more exhaustion. which… etc etc.

basically i feel like the core of their conflict wld be really bad communication issues that have had around 500 years to fester >>; and because theyre so powerful they end up dragging a lot of the multiverse along in their conflict. its less of a war and more of a dispute to them almost?? bcs 500 years in the grand scheme of things is not a very long time

hello this is probs a dumb question but oh well

so, basically i wanna make a waiting room where i can basically do everything and learn anything. so i have two questions:

If i make a skill room in my WR, and i learn skills there, will i know how to do them when i shift back to my CR?

Lets say someone was sick in their CR, but couldnt get diagnosed. (We’ll say they have like anxiety or smth) if they scripted everything abt themselves into a WR script, and script a doctor, could they get diagnosed with something they have in their CR in their WR if they can afford to do it in their CR? Hope that one makes sense idrk how to word it lol

have a good day :)

hello anon! i'm not going to waste any time here and i'm just going to jump straight into answering your questions!

🪐 IF I MAKE A SKILL ROOM IN MY WR, AND I LEARN SKILLS THERE, WILL I KNOW HOW TO DO THEM WHEN I SHIFT BACK TO MY CR?

first of all, yes! it is possible to learn skills in your waiting room (and any reality for that matter) and bring them back to your current reality. since when you shift to your waiting room and go through the learning process of the skill you want to learn, you will still have the memory of the particular skill you learned. so when you return to your current reality, you will still have that skill.

for example, if i were to learn a language in my waiting room/desired reality, i am able to retain that knowledge and return to my current reality knowing whatever i've learnt.

now here comes the 'issue' with other specific skills; physical skills. things like fighting, dancing- the question is whether you can come back and execute such skills you've learnt. your current reality body may be different to your waiting room/desired reality self and while you may be able to remember the knowledge you've learnt, would your cr body be able to execute the things you've learnt?

for example, you go to your waiting room and decide you want to learn how to dance with your current body. as you learn to dance, your body in your waiting room may get fitter or stronger as you progress. but when you return to your 'original reality' you will have all that knowledge but since it's a different body, you may execute it a bit differently. unless you script that your waiting room body stays the same as your current reality body and in a way your current reality body can execute the skill you've learnt, for example.

even for things like you shifting to a reality where you're already fluent in a language and then you come back to your 'original reality' "you won't be totally fluent since you didn't learn it in your current reality."

well, this is what many in the shifting community says anyways (*cough* shifttok *cough* no shade whatsoever hehe): that you have to learn skills to be able to bring them back.

but who says i can't just decide to shift back to a version of my 'original reality' where i am fluent in so-and-so language, even though i didn't learn it over there?

who's to say i can't shift back to a version of my 'original reality' where i have the same body as i do in, let's say my superhero desired reality so i am able to execute the same fighting moves and self-defence as i can in my desired reality?

if there are an infinite amount of realities out there and people can shift to defy the laws of physics and have superpowers, why is it so farfetched to be able to 'change' our 'original reality'? this reality is no different from any other reality and our reality isn't exempt from being limitless and changeable. unless you assume so (law of assumption!!).

reality shifting goes way deeper than anyone thinks but i feel many reality shifters look at shifting on a 'surface-level'. that yes, we are shifting to a whole different reality different to this one. and yes, we can't change a reality or bring anything into a reality, but alongside our current reality, exist an infinite amount of realities that differ slightly and hold every single possibility out there. reality shifting and manifestation are intertwined. we are shifting realities every single second. what do you think happens when we manifest something? we simply shift to a reality where we have what we want.

you can most definitely shift to learn skills and come back to this reality knowing them. you can definitely shift to a reality where you're fluent in a language and then decide to shift back to a version of your 'original reality' where you are fluent in that language, without having to learn it. you can 100% shift back from your dr and back to your 'original reality' where you have your dream body. again, any reality is malleable and in your control, just not in the way you think.

you choose what you get to experience, and you choose what's possible and impossible.

i went on a bit of a tangent here but the answer to your question is a one hundred percent yes :)

🪐 LET'S SAY SOMEONE WAS SICK IN THEIR CR, BUT COULDN'T GET DIAGNOSED. (WE'LL SAY THEY HAVE LIKE ANXIETY OR SMTH). IF THEY SCRIPTED EVERYTHING ABOUT THEMSELVES INTO A WR SCRIPT, AND SCRIPT A DOCTOR, COULD THEY GET DIAGNOSED WITH SOMETHING THEY HAVE IN THEIR CR IN THEIR WR IF THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO DO IT IN THEIR CR?

again, i don't see why this isn't possible! in fact, i've even thought of doing this before. if infinite realities exist, there is 100% a reality out there where you can shift to a waiting room with a doctor and you were the exact version of yourself from your 'original reality' to get diagnosed with something and get the help you need.

and honestly, if you ever have a question regarding shifting and wondering, "is this possible?" the answer is always going to be a big, fat, YES!

reality shifting is limitless. there are INFINITE realities, and INFINITE possibilities. i feel like some people tend to underestimate how really big INFINITE is. and we hardly can; it's infinite. anything that is humanly possible and impossible, every single outcome, possibility, EXISTS out there. NOTHING is impossible and everything is POSSIBLE.

reality shifting is limitless until you start limiting yourself :D

i hope this helped! i apologise if i went a bit off-topic here but i hope i was able to answer your question! i wish you the very best of luck with reality shifting and have a good day as well! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
