#if anyone has any more ideas for stuff like this lemme know i love this stuff

[uwuspaceboy]

hello, i am insane and decided to graph out how many times the South Side is mentioned in every season of shameless here you go

[ur-boyfiend]

hai , here's some chan x reader fluffy domestic stuff, if anyone wants to see a continuation lemme know ^^

you’re lying in bed on your back, eyes closed and earbuds in.  your skills at zoning out are strong, so you’re not very aware of your surroundings. you don’t have any plans for today, but your friends and boyfriend like to stop by unannounced, so you don’t particularly expect to be left alone all day. 

that’s why you’re not that surprised when you feel someone's weight drop on top of you. you pause your music and pull out your earbuds, looking up slightly to see a mop of curly blond hair. laughing quietly, you gently run your fingers through your boyfriend’s hair, and he leans into your touch. 

“what’s goin’ on channie?” he seems more tired than usual, which is saying something. he mumbles something in response, but his face is still buried in your chest so you can’t actually tell what he’s saying. 

“love, i can’t hear you.” 

he lifts his head up to look at you, and his expression almost reminds you of an upset puppy, “people don’t know how to do their jobs. i came in and nobody had finished their part of the project, you could tell they all expected me to finish it for them. so now i’m doing the entire project myself.”

you frown, knowing that being one of the best students in the music department meant people assumed chan would do their work for them if they asked. you’ve given plenty of students deadly side-eye when they tried to bother chan, but most of them just try again when you’re not there. 

“can you tell your professor?” 

chan just shakes his head, “i don’t wanna tell the professor because that’d give them the chance to get their shit together. i’ll just do the project myself and leave their names off of it, their loss.”

you laugh quietly, appreciating the pettiness. you were probably a bad influence, but because of chan’s default sweetheart personality, you were glad he wasn’t letting people take advantage of him anymore. 

“if there’s any way i can help let me know, alright?” 

“you have your own classes to work on, i don’t wanna use up your work time.” 

you shake your head, “the biggest assignment i have right now is my end of semester project for my visual arts class, my team for the year end fashion show is actually ahead of where we need to be since we’re all prone to hyperfocusing on the work.” 

chan grumbled slightly, “imagine having a team that do their work, what a concept.” 

you gently scratch at his scalp, still running your fingers through his hair, “is there anyone else in your class you could team up with? maybe not for this project, but for future ones?” 

chan shrugs, “i try not to interact with people unless they interact with me first, i don’t need to prompt people to bug me.” 

you snort, knowing how he feels. people used to treat you the same way, the difference is you’re just a lot more intimidating than him, and people figured out pretty quickly that you weren’t gonna do their work for them. 

“i think one of my friends was talking about his boyfriend needing a new team for his assignment, i’m pretty sure another one of our friends is in a similar situation… lemme ask real quick.” 

he hums in confirmation and you grab your phone from where it sat abandoned on the low shelf next to your bed, quickly putting in your passcode and opening the ‘dance hoes’ groupchat. you know each other because of how often the performance and fashion departments work together, everyone in the chat had done modeling for you at some point. 

you send a quick text, ‘hey can the catboys get online?’

quickly you get responses from two of the other chat members, both asking what was going on, one much more kindly than the other. you’re pretty sure chan has fallen asleep on you, but you keep playing with his hair as you ask the pair about what they’d mentioned earlier. 

they both give quick confirmation, and you explain your idea. both disappear for a second, before confirming that their boyfriends were down to meet up with everyone. you decide to work out a meeting time later, so you set aside your phone and curl up with chan, tugging a blanket over both of you and closing your eyes, falling asleep in your boyfriend’s arms.

Hi I’m back! I think we all know what I’m going to talk about; “s4 of TMA and OH MY GOD JARED HOPWORTH STATEMENT”

MAG 130: Meat

Lucia Wright has the same last name as James Wright who ran the institute from ‘73-‘96 until he passed. I don’t know if there’s any relation but just in case. There’s that pit. There’s a lot of pits that’s related to The Flesh (MAG 49, MAG 80, MAG 97, I think, and MAG 130) so. Yay. Also Tom Hann appearance once again (MAG 30, MAG 72). Love the mention of the Carlisle boy which I think is Tony Carlisle from MAG 18, the neighbor with all that meat. Gertrude also mentions Dekker which is probably Adelard Dekker who I still need to see more of to fully develop my opinion on him.

Also what’s with all the recent cobwebs??? There’s been so many mentions of them around the institute, is The Web planning something?

MAG 131: Flesh

fucking hell, Jon. I think this man just decides to do shit without running it by anyone. Also yay Melanie! I feel like really bad for her. Again, I can’t even blame her much for her reactions cause one, there was The Slaughter and two, surgery is like hella invasive even when it’s run by the person so waking up to someone performing an impromptu surgery on you would linger with me as well.

Helen is back. Bit scared of her but she sounds much better then Michael (then again, The Spiral lies like constantly). Now onto the main guy: Jared Hopworth.

Um. I had no idea what his voice was going to sound like. My expectation wasn’t high, just “unhinged” and my god did Jared Hopworth deliver. (Also heard he’s also Martins voice actor???? WHAT??) he didn’t give much new information but lemme tell you, hearing the squelching of meat and shifting of bones made me want to throw up so congratulations Jared! You’re are in the top 3 of TMA voices that make me feel intense horror!

MAG 132: Entombed

Jesus. Okay so. Daisy. Not much lore in this ep for me to connect to anything, just a lot of sad stuff like I was speechless. I can’t remember if I mentioned on here that I thought Daisy was related to The Hunt but I did suspect and I’m not surprised! Also, the shirt thing, that’s crazy oh my god, I thought it was interesting she asked about his shirt out of all things.

MAG 133: Dead Horse

The Everchase. Why does every entity have such a cool sounding ritual name??? Anyways, pretty interesting.

“You know what my least favorite part of a case was?”

“The police brutality lawsuit” Im literally dying.

Also, Basira, man. I think she’s so interesting. I can’t put it into words but god she’s just such an interesting character to me. An ex-cop, one of the only ones who like logic’s her way out of The Unknowing, trying to keep everything together at the institute, I don’t know, I just like her a lot.

But god FORBID a character gets replaced OR SACRIFICES THEMSELF.

I need to see something from Martin, I’m worried about him. Maybe Peter Lukas. Actually, I kinda wanna see Nathaniel Lukas? Like he exists too, he has his own shit going on. I don’t wanna see Elias.

Okay I think that’s everything! I wish I could continue my notes, I low key miss sitting at my computer after listening to the eps and typing out every single detail, it was kinda calming.

I feel like I’m getting annoying with all these agere asks but I’m in a weird headspace rn and so my favs now have to regress and be happy so I can sleep better and maybe someone else gets a kick outta it I dunno? Anyways

I still love the idea that Buggy’s regression is mostly unrelated to wanting to wear certain clothes or long for certain toys or even a specific kind of food or such, I like to think it’s very „No. aesthetic“ type of regression, where you probably couldn’t tell at first glance and it’s not as easy as just giving him kiddie stuff and he’ll be happy. (Not to knock on anyone who does like the aesthetics and kiddie stuff just to be clear.) so he actually doesn’t have a bunch of toys and plushies and such and doesn’t really ask for them either.

…. THAT BEING SAID

Buggy should most definitely have an absolutely gigantic plush Fruitwani. Massive thing. It’s almost as big as Crocodile himself and that’s not counting the tail. A complete impulse purchase by Crocodile as well, being separated from his husbands for a while, having to delay reuniting them for another two days because of unforeseen circumstances and some unfortunate encounters with some Marines. Talking on the Denden to both of them and learning Buggy has had some bad regression days behind him. He doesn’t even let himself slip fully, there’s still a part of him that knows why Crocodile isn’t back with them, so he tries to stay in a big headspace when talking to him, but inwardly Buggy just wants to cry badly and curl up into Mihawks arms all day because Croccy isn’t home and he doesn’t LIKE it when people aren’t with him for too long because they may never come back. It’s a mess. Crocodiles suffering, Mihawk is suffering and Buggy is absolutely miserable.

So when Crocodile spots the giant plush toy sitting in a store window, surrounded by smaller plushtoys, his mind is immediately made up. Yes that one. Just for decoration? Not for sale? Well it is now. No. No that can be arranged. No the price doesn’t matter, he will leave this island with this absolute beast of a plush toy no matter how many Beri he has to spend or who he’ll have to harm if that what it takes. He WILL have that toy.

Buggy still clings to Crocodile more than usual when he gets back, no plush could ever replace the connection he was craving…. But after he has settled down a bit more the plush actually becomes on of his favorite toys. Not even just when he’s regressed, he just loves this thing. Has spooked several people wanting to talk business with Crossguild coming into the room finding chairman Buggy lounging on, what appears to be, a full sized Fruitwani , it just looks that convincing at first glance. For Buggy it’s not only cool and flashy, it’s a very, literally, big reminder that Crocodile cares about him in his own way, even when on some days the most he’ll get from him is a good morning kiss and the rest of the day is filled with snark towards him until he bids him and Mihawk goodnight again. It just means a lot to him to know he’s loved even when he’s being vulnerable or difficult.

Also yes, Crocodile also loves this thing and Mihawk has been on the suffering end of him and Buggy spooning the damn thing at night while he goes woefully unembraced on his side of the bed „ah yes, just me, my fiances, and the eight foot tall Applewani plush one of them threatened a shop owner over.“

Olay lemme preface this with some things

1) you're not annoying at all, and if anyone says you are, I'll eat their knees

2) I get it - honestly posting content for Buggy specifically for age regression was nerve wracking bc like. Idek really. But giving things I experience to characters I love is so cathartic, and I've spent more than a few nights just.... daydreaming about stuff like that just to be happy and comfy and cozy. No judgement on this blog, of that I promise you ♡♡♡

3) agere is valid every and any way, aesthetic or not, visible or not, it's doesn't matter, only the ways people feel. If you're safe, happy, and not harming anyone, you're doing so perfect and I love you and am proud of you

Now with my soap box stuff done, HOLY HECK YES YES PLZ I LOVE THIS I ADORE I NEED IT, GODS YOUR MIND!!!!! (/pos)

Buggy isn't a typical person, head to toe, inside out, he's Flashy but also incredibly subtle. His regression isn't some cookie cutter type of deal, he's wild and slightly feral in some ways, he's unusual and perfect and precious. His idea of a good time is knife games, climbing (everything is sight, nothing is sacred), explosions, and playing poker. He has a special rope that's just for him to tie and play with ((and occasionally chew on, though Mihawk has a mild heart attack every time he sees it while Crocodile cringes into the next plane of existence in disgust)).

At a glance, not much changes, but Mihawk can feel the change in Haki, and Crocodile can see the microscopic things there when Buggy shifts. He holds things differently, stims more visibly, just seems bouncier and even more animated yet somehow much more calm. The best explanation comes from Buggy himself in describing the shifting between his headspaces. "Some things turn off and others pop on open."

The worst thing to Buggy in general is a perception of loss or abandonment. Logically, he knows it isn't the case, and he can cling to that mostly, but experience has taught him that distance does NOT, in fact, make hearts grow fonder - at least, not for him. The one and only time he felt it may have applied - and this is a very tentative maybe - was when he reunited with his crew, made into Alvida's image and her decisions. There was no war over crew nor ship, just an allowance to slip back in as if he'd never quite left. The only changes or acknowledgement was Alvida's slightly awkward, brusque, yet lingering touch to his arm when she gave it a squeeze and remarked that "handling these hoodlums solo is not my idea if a good time." He was needed, and that did wonders for his security but not so much for the mental health.

Crocodile and Mihawk don't need him - he's the face man, sure, and he's got a talent for manipulation, speeches, rallying men. But at the end of the day, they outshine him despite their proclivities for the shadows. It's a juxtaposition. It's safe. It's wonderful, and Buggy still struggles to trust in the reliability there.

Logically, he knows- Croc is out, managing something for work, he's coming back, he will be back, he's not alone or abandoned or suddenly useless and worthless.

But he still feels it all.

And falling into his headspace to decompress is always harder when he's upset or scared, it only really works when he boils over, and the meltdown that would lead to is counterproductive. So he's waffling between the two, assured only by the calls, by Mihawk, and the few other places he can get some semblance normalcy and security.

When Crocodile does come home, a comically large plush toy over his shoulder, Buggy's already practically vibrating and is completely beyond the point of words in a positive way. He just squeals, lunges and the cushion of sand catching his weight is warm and safe and cozy and he clings, a clown themed koala, right there without shame.

The plush doesn't come up until later.

When someone inevitably asks - and, interestingly enough, it is Mihawk who does - Croc is honest. "Thought the clown would like it for longer trios like this."

The toy is big, yes, and also decently heavy, moreso than even it's size may seem. It's partially weighted in the tummy, legs and jaw, a display piece more than a toy for playing with, and Buggy is absolutely obsessed. It's Croco-sized, and it's a 'wani, and it's soft and cute and heavy. He loves it.

His first order of business is immediately dropping down to scramble under it and just... going limp. He wriggles a little, humming softly before falling still, cheek squished into his forearms, hair a mess but he's smiling, he's relaxed, he's comfy and happy and safe and with his boyfriends' Haki on the edges if his muffled, fuzzy awareness, he truly unwinds for the first time in over a week.

Crocodile carefully tugs his hair from under the toy with his hook, and Mihawk hands him a little fidget toy or a rope.

The toy is named later on, as demanded by a tiny jester with a frankly lethal set of baby doll eyes and quivering lip. Really, he could topple nations with that face, the other two swear.

Mihawk simply has to make peace with Addie the Applewani Cuddle Buddy having a semi permanent spot in the bed.

[puppetfives]

Ah, requests! Don't mind if I do!

Can I have something with Stanford Pines x ADHD!reader? (specifically inattentive type, if you're familiar with topic, if not it's ok~)

I'm thinking about, like, an outing into the forest for exploring or experiments, but if you have any idea that you had laying around - I'd love to hear that too~

Yes of course! So sorry for the delay but I wasn't quite sure what to right so enjoy some drabble!

Stanford Pines x ADHD! Reader

Ford: He/Him/His

Reader: you/yours because of 2nd person

Totally didn't put in any Jack Stauber references no sir-ree

I'm sorry hyuckin' sorry this took forever but here's something! Life's been a real pain in the booty dude!

By the way I didn't check grammar so plz lemme know if anything is wrong thanks!

☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆

You and Ford were on a trip to hunt down the infamous "Plaid-typus" one of his many favorites specimens. Having ADHD is especially hard on these missions since you forget things or get distracted by other things.

"You ready to go, love bug?"

He'd ask, his satchel strap across his chest and a smile on his face. You'd nod, feeling very excited for the expedition.

"Yeah! I'm so excited to go and find the eye bats!"

You'd say with excitement, feeling all giddy at the thought. Ford would then raise a brow, looking at you with a strange look of visible confusion.

"Dearest dove, we're not going to find eye bats, we're going to find the plaid-typus, remember?"

You'd blush a bright pink, feeling embarrassed by the mistake.

"Oh yeah... My mistake."

Which was said with only an awkward chuckle, looking away from Ford and at the ground. He'd only smile in return and kiss your forehead, reassuring you lovingly.

"You're too cute when you blush."

Ford says with a grin, taking your hand as you two finally started your journey.

"Now then, do you have the 'special' supplies?"

He asks, checking to see if you brought them

"I wonder if trees are like strippers during winter time... Oh wait the supplies? What supplies?"

You'd question, getting distracted by your random questions about the most pointless stuff. Such as if jellyfish had tongues or if lava tasted like tomato sauce. Ford knew you were quite odd with these "questions" of yours but he still loved you anyways. Eventually, after letting the question settle in, you snapped back to reality.

"Oh yeah the 'supplies' I know what you mean now!"

You'd then pull out the butterscotch pudding Ford has requested to help capture the plaid-typus with, handing it to him with a smile. Ford smirks and cups your face after taking the butterscotch pudding, kissing your lips lovingly and tenderly. He pulls away, kissing your cheek.

"Thank you schöun."

He says, opening the pudding and setting it out on a plate before ringing a bell, pulling you both into a mossy green bush to hide in.

plat plat plat plat plat plat plat...plat plat plat plat plat

"The plaid-typus. It's so cute!"

You'd whisper yell, causing Ford to shush you before the plaid-typus took the bait.

SWOOP!

And the plaid-typus was caught in the fishing net, Ford standing in a pose of triumph. You'd look up at him, getting lost in his build. His board shoulders and chest, his fluffy silver hair, his cracked glasses, oh was he a sight for hurting eyes. A true silver fox as most would say, or even a hunkle.

"Dearest... You're staring."

He says with a grin, blushing a soft pink from your staring.

"Oh! Right. So uh, what are we gonna do with the plaid-typus again?"

You say, trying to change the subject.

"Oh, nothing in particular. I just wanted one of these as a little companion if you may."

You'd loved his sense of speech. He really could make anyone swoon couldn't he? You two finally made it back to the shack, going downstairs to his lab as Ford puts the plaid-typus in a large play pen he set up days ago. You watched as he put in some water and more butterscotch pudding for the little anomaly, even throwing in some peanut butter as a snack for later.

"Such a cute little fella isn't it?"

He'd ask rthorically, petting its head as he finally pulled away, taking off his coat and satchel before taking your hands in his.

"But not as cute as you my precious buttercup."

He'd say, kissing your hands as you rolled back your eyes, blushing from the sweet sensations.

"Can we go cuddle now please? I wanna be held."

You'd ask, completely forgetting the whole mission you just had together. Ford only chuckles and kisses you again with love, cupping your cheek with his hand as his thumb gently rubbed your cheek bone. After a minute or so, he pulls away, chuckling once again.

"Of course, I love you too much. I hope you never forget that."

You'd smile once more, your face a bright red as he held you in his lap.

"I would never forget the important stuff."

☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆*ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚☆ ★ ✮ ★ ☆

Welp there it is! Sorry if it wasn't the best but I tried! Don't question why the plaid-typus eats butterscotch pudding btw I have no idea where the hyuck that even came from.

Inspired by this post, (https://artzychic27.tumblr.com/post/712203175464239104/i-love-ever-after-high-au-what-would-the-events/amp ) what would the mosnter high movies go like in School for Monstrous Youths?

Ignore how they're ordered

New Ghoul In School

It's Nino's first day at DuPont School For Monstrous Youths

He's fifteen days old and he likes to think he's... Well acquainted with monsters mentally his age. Though, he's only ever learned social interaction from his books, so... This won't go horrible

He's just gotta keep his limbs attached, try not to electrocute anyone, and the school year should go fine... What could go wrong?

A lot. He accidentally electrocuted a hallway full of students when one of his bolts came loose, had to fish his hand out of the fountain, and ran into a very awful harpy who may or may not have threatened him

But, there's a silver lining. He made three friends... He thinks

There's Kim, Marinette, and Nathaniel

He and Nathaniel sit in the back of class together, and Nathaniel keeps him awake through the lectures with some funny drawings

Kim got them out of a zombie traffic jam in the hallway, so he owes him for that

And Marinette redid his stitches when she noticed a few threads coming loose

Marinette: I love your thread!

Nino: Thanks, I love yours! What brand is that? Michael Gore?

Marinette: Ooh, you know your stuff!

Long-story sort, Nino finds his group of friends amongst his classmates, save for Lila, and things are going nicely until lunch one day

Lila decides to be petty and humiliate him during lunch by messing with his bolts, causing a power-outage all through school that also fries a few students' cell phones

This gets Nino sent to detention and causes students to treat him like the plague despite him explaining over and over that he had nothing to do with it

Fortunately, Alya comes to his aid, showing a video of the incident on her phone which shows Lila tampering with Nino's bolts without him noticing

Now Lila has detention because she's terrible, and Nino owes Alya big time for helping him

Alya: Buy me dinner Saturday night.

Nino: What?

Alya: Did I stutter, cutie?

Why Do Ghouls Fall In Love?

It's almost Marc's birthday!

He's gonna be sixteen, so this calls for a big ass party!

Nathaniel, meanwhile, has no idea what to buy him, and each of his friends' suggestions only makes him more anxious

Kim: Get him his favorite treats!

Rose: Flowers crowns are for any occasion!

Nino: A jacket he can’t chew through?

Marinette: Made it already.

Ivan: What is point of gifts on birth anniversary? You grow old, older, then be burried in snow.

So, he goes to Sacqueline, daughter of Eros for help

Meanwhile, The Science Kids are all going over the plans for Marc's party when they get on the topic of what Marc hopes Nathaniel will get him for his birthday, and in all honesty, he doesn't care

Marc: Oh, I'm not materialistic like that. I mean, don't get me wrong, what guy doesn't love presents? But I think I'm a little over that ever since Lucien.

Science Kids: ... WHOM?!

Lucien Rebois, the most charming human student at Marc's old school, Vadim Bastille. He could have had any monster, but he chose Marc

He doted on him, bought him so many gifts, and had Marc completely wrapped around his finger

But, sadly, Marc and his family had to flee due to an old grudge about The Silver Bridge, which they did not cause to collapse!

Marc: ... But, that's all in the past! So, Jean, any chance we can use the catacombs for the party?

Jean: Lemme provide the music, and you've got yourself a deal. Now tell me more about your romantic hunk of a man.

Lila, having overheard the conversation, hatches a plan to get back at the ghouls for not inviting her to Marc's Sweet 16

Meanwhile, Jean, Rose, Myléne, Ivan, and Reshma work to clear out the catacombs for Marc’s party. Of course, they have to be wary of the Pit Of Eternal Odor in the middle of the room, so they make a note to section that off so no one falls in... Hehehe

Lila begins her plan by calling Lucien (while pretending to be Marc's friend) and telling him that Marc misses him, which causes Lucien to transfer to DuPont as the school’s newest human student

The art club is helping Nathaiel put together a scrapbook of all the significant moments in his and Marc's life when suddenly, Lucien makes his flashy entrance and dazzles everyone in the school with his charming smile

Marc: *Tiny gasp* Luci!

Lucien: Emerald! *Hugs hum*

Nathaniel, of course, gets a little jealous when he sees Lucien and Marc hugging, but calms down a bit when Marc introduces Lucien to the others as his ex... Just a bit

They spend the day together, just to catch up as friends. Well, Marc wants to catch up as friends, Lucien is still certain Marc loves him and attempts to put a few moves on him, but Marc is totally oblivious

Simon: That boy's trying to put the moves on you! I see it with my own eye!

Marc: What? No, Lucien would never do something like that; he's too nice. Besides, he knows I'm dating Nath.

Cosette: And I know there's a stylish new belt buckle that costs five thousand euros, but I still want it.

When Lucien and Marc hang out again, it's not long before Marc brings up Nathaniel, and this is where Lucien gets pissed. But, he keeps his composure

Still acting like such a nice guy, he suggests Marc fly him up to the bell tower like old times. But once they arrive, Lucien corners Marc and hypnotizes him into loving him

Haha! Surprise! Lucien's a bad guy! Ah, you all knew that. He's learned a couple of tricks from the witches at Vadim. By that, I mean he threatened them with fire. And the effects of the hypnosis turn the victim's eyes red

Ismael: ... What the fuck?! *Gestures to Marc and Lucien kissing* Is no one else seeing this?!

Denise: Oh, you bet I am! Marc! What do you think Nath would have to say about this? You know, Nathaniel, your loving boyfriend?!

Marc: ... Who?

Science Kids: Le gasp!

Zoé: That's it! I'm out! *Walks away*

The Science Kids and Akuma Class find out what's going on with Marc when one of Nathaniel's gargoyle friends mentions they saw Lucien cornering Marc in the bell tower during one of their shifts

They send Alya to spy on Lucien while he's behaving like any villain and monologuing his plan in private- To make Marc his boyfriend once again, have him hang off of his every word, and find a spell to turn him human. Oh, and she finds out Lila set this whole thing up

Alya: Ooh, you bitch.

*Meanwhile*

Nathaniel: *Loudly crying*

Adrien: It'll be okay-

Nathaniel: SHUT UP! When I see them, I'm gonna skin that harpy, and crush Lucien's skull with my bare hands!

Aurore: Or something non-violent.

Ismael: Right. We get Reshma to paralyze Lila, and then I'll-

Aurore: No nunchucks!

Ismael: Damnit.

The gang then turns to Sacqueline, who agrees to help them by shooting Marc with one of her arrows so he will fall in love with Nathaniel again

However, Lila foils their plan, and Sacqueline and Nathaniel end up falling in love with each other

Chloé: RA FUCKING DAMNIT!

Alix: This officially cannot get any worse!

Kim: Eew! They're kissing now!

After hours of research, Max, Simon, and Sabrina discover there's a way to break the spell of Sacqueline's bow so Nathaniel can break Lucien's spell over Marc

They can break the spell by smashing the bow, and they decide to do it at Marc's party, where everyone will be

On the night of the party, Marinette is about to smash the bow, but it's quickly stolen by Lila, who begins to shoot random monsters, including Lacey and Max, Simon and Cosette, Denise and Adrien, and Jean and Mireille. Kim then hatches a plan to use himself as bait to distract Lila while the others get the bow

It works until Kim is shot and falls in love with Chloé, but Nino removes his hand and throws it, which knocks the bow out of Lila's grasp

Ondine spills water on the floor, and Ivan freezes it which causes Lila to slip and fall, and she ends up dangling from the banner over the Pit Of Eternal Odor

Nino smashes the bow, which frees everyone from the spell

Alix shouts at Nathaniel to get him to show Marc his gift, but he is pinned against the wall by Lucien, who is surprisingly strong against a 370-pound gargoyle

However, Nathaniel still manages to convince Marc to look at the scrapbook, which reminds him why he fell in love with Nathaniel and breaks free from Lucien's spell

Then he confronts Lucien and throws him off Nathaniel

Marc: ... I remember EVERYTHING! You were the worst boyfriend ever! I stayed your pretty little trophy wife while you bought me a crap ton of superficial gifts I never even liked, threatened every guy that talked to me, endlessly touched me, gave backhanded compliments about my appearance, and made me wear a fucking collar like a FUCKING DOG! And if that weren't enough, you were the worst! Kisser! EVER!

Marinette: Oh, fuck! He went there! Alya! Simon! Tell me you're recording this!

Simon: *Recording the whole thing on his phone* I got everything after 'trophy wife.'

In a fit of rage, Marc pushes Lucien into the Pit Of Eternal Odor, he then falls on Lila, and they fall into it together. When they climb back up, they are then tossed out of the party by Chloé and Zoé's mummy bouncers.

Things end off with Marc and Nathaniel sharing a kiss

Escape From Skull Shores

For spring break, Ondine invites her friends to come with her to the Great Scarrier Reef. Of course, Chloé being Chloé borrows the family yacht

Zoé: Does mom know you took the yacht?

Chloé: Should I care?

Zoé: Nah.

But, on the way, the ship is attacked by a kraken and sinks, leaving the two classes stuck on a small raft.

Fortunately, nearby are two humans; Bartleby Farnum, an eccentric show-and salesman and his assistant Kipling, who covers his face with a sack because he is “too horrible” to look at. Planning to exhibit the, Farnum saves them

However, once he lays eyes on Nino, he gets this weird look on his face

Alya: Are you checking out my boyfriend?

Farnun: What? Of course not!

Alya: He’s taken!

Farnum takes the monsters to his home on Skull Shores, a skull-shaped island in the middle of the ocean, claiming he has to pick up supplies before going to Great Scarrier Reef

Once docked, the group is welcomed by the local population, the Tiki. Farnum convinces them to keep the group entertained while he… Takes care of things

Chloé expects to be treated like royalty by the Tiki, but to her shock and frustration, they giving that treatment to Nino for some reason. They even give him a necklace

Suspicious by Farnum and the Tiki’s behavior, Max, Kagami, Ondine, and Kim- during the evening- sneak around aboard Farnum’s boat to find out what he’s up to

Kagami: What can we expect to find?

Max: Well, most psychopaths keep momentos from their crimes. He may have them hidden somewhere. Look for a secret compartment, likely under the floorboards, behind a painting-

Kim: *Finds an old box* Or under his bed.

Max: That works.

They find an old roll of film and play it, discovering that Farnum had a partner who looked exactly like Nino. As the film continues, they learn that the partner was sacrificed by the Tiki to a beast that inhabits the island

Back on the island, Farnum reveals the existence of the beast to the students and how an explorer was able to soothe it

With that, the Tiki suddenly tie Nino up, and Farnum elaborates that the Tiki gave the explorer to the beast to keep him from attacking them

Alya: WHAT?!

Ivan: I knew strange man had ulterior motive.

Juleka: Then why didn’t you say anything?

Ivan: Poor timing.

A moment later the beast appears. The students are shocked and Nino is in a vulnerable position. Farnum and the Tiki launch their attack, throwing spears at the beast but the spears are not enough to harm the beast, and it leaves with Nino

The Tiki people force Denise, Cosette, Mireille, Simon, Ismael, Ivan, Alix, Adrien, Zoé, Chloé, and Marinette into a pitfall trap, while the others escape

Kim, Ondine, Kagami, and Max return shortly afterwards to find that they are too late. The four set off to save Nino on their own.

The next morning when Nino awakens a shy, handsome guy is with him. He then remembers the monster and tells him they should run while it is gone.

The boy answers that won't be necessary, as the beast and he are the same creature. He introduces himself as Andy, and explains that he changes into a huge beast if he experiences hate, anger, or fear, whether his own or another's

Nino: *Checking out Andy’s abs* Yeah… That’s… That’s bad… You, uh… Got a girlfriend or boyfriend?

Back In the village, Cosette and Ismael trick the remaining Tiki down the pit, and Ivan freezes then, allowing the group to use the Tiki as stairs to escape

Before they leave, they hear the Tiki beg for forgiveness. Figuring they can be of some use, Ivan unfreezes them, and the Tiki join forces with the students to stop Farnum

In the jungle, Kim, Ondine, Max, and Kagami are spying on Farnum and realize he has a tracking device planted on Nino via the necklace

Spotting them, Farnum orders Kipling to capture Kim, Kagami, and Max. Ondine runs off and dives into the water

As Farnum mocks Kim for his “coward girlfriend,” Kagami sympathizes with the timid Kipling, seeing that he isn't anything like his cruel master, and tries to encourage him to not be ashamed of whatever he's hiding under the mask despite what people like Farnum tell him. However, Kipling declines, certain he can rely on Farnum

While Andy and Nino walk around the island, the duo notices movement in the bushes and Andy, thinking it's Farnum or his minions, charges in to attack, only to find the surprised group of Reshma, Jean, Juleka, Luka, Rose, Aurore, Marc, Nathaniel, Sabrina, Alya, Lacey, and Myléne

Marc: Nino! We’re here to save you… And your rugged shirtless gentleman friend.

Jean: I saw him first!

Alya: Babe, I would like us to become a polycule.

Luka: Back of the line!

Nathaniel: Amateurs. *Pretends to trip* Oh, the pain! I need a muscular hunk to carry me the rest of the way in his big, strong arms! *Andy picks him up*

Lacey: You sly little bitch.

Suddenly, Farnum is spotted. Andy runs away but doesn't make it far before he has to hide and overhears the entire exchange between the students and Farnum

Though Farnum initially has the upper hand, Mireille, Simon, Ismael, Ivan, Alix, Adrien, Zoé, Chloé, and Marinette make their appearance with the Tiki who turn on Farnum

Only mildly bothered, Farnum takes his cane and makes a magnet appear, which pulls Nino to him. Threatening to suck the electricity from him with the magnet, Farnum shouts for the beast to appear

Andy, outraged that Farnum would go to great lengths just to get to him, changes into his beast form

Lacey: Fuck, that’s hot.

Andy can't do anything but comply with Farnum's orders, lest he risks Nino’s life. He changes back and turns himself in

Back at Farnum's boat, Farnum forces Andy to get in the boat as the students helplessly watch. However, the group is surprised to see Ondine rise from the water, backed up by a small army of dolphins as well as the kraken that destroyed the students' boat

Kim: YEEEEAAAAHHH!! MY GIRLFRIND’S NOT A COWARD, YOU FUCKER!

This time, the kraken destroys Farnum's boat, then picks up Farnum and flings him into the jungle while Kipling runs after him

After the kraken repairs the yacht, the students resume their spring break trip, taking Andy with them. However, they forgot about Nino’s necklace

With Spring Break over, Nino tries to make Andy feel at home at DuPont, which turns out to be more work than he initially thought due to Andy's long-time isolation, he is unfamiliar with 21st century technology

However, a few students make him feel very welcomed

Nathaniel: Andy, you know, it’s customary for new students to try and carry a gargoyle.

Lacey: And to let at least five students every hour feel your biceps.

Luka: I think I’ll start.

Marc: Enough. All of you. *Wraps his arms around Andy* The nerve, trying to take advantage of a new student. *Feels Andy’s biceps* Simply cruel.

After some days, Damocles orders everyone to the auditorium for a speech about tolerance by a human guest speaker

While the human appears merely eccentric at first, he starts making all sorts of backhanded insults at the students, and appears particularly intent on tormenting Andy

Lila: I don’t know who this bitch is, but I am loving him.

Mme. Mendeleiev demands that he leave, as his speech has nothing to do with tolerance. The man only pesters Andy further, and he is pushed away by him, causing his disguise to fall, exposing him as Farnum

Several students try to fight Farnum, but he is too quick and witty for them. He deflects Alix’s gaze with a mirror, turning her into stone, douses Lacey with a spray bottle, and uses bug spray on Marc and Reshma

Andy, pushed by the chaos, transforms and bursts through the roof, sending the other students and teachers fleeing for their lives as the ceiling comes down on them

Andy tries to escape, but Farnum and Kipling, show up on the roof, and Farnum tells Andy that, just as with Kipling, a freak like him has nowhere else to turn to than to a man like him

Though Andy agrees with Farnum's reasoning and again turns himself in, Nino hurries up to the roof and convinces him otherwise

Nino: Dude! You can become a student here! You’ll have somewhere to stay and hundreds of people looking to date you! So… Think about that.

Kipling, finally fed up with Farnum's abuse, takes off his mask, revealing that his ears are shaped like an elephant's, and stands up to Farnum before he picks him up and throws him into a tar pit

During his fall, Farnum crosses paths with a flock of birds, causing him to end up not only tarred, but feathered too. The humans Farnum had called to take Andy into custody mistake Farnum for the beast and capture him

Adrien: So… There’s just a monster patrol squadron here to capture you whenever someone calls?

Marinette: Fun, isn’t it?

Although he finally broke ties with Farnum, Kipling is still unsure whether he'll be accepted until he spots two girls who have elephant ears too and clearly think he's a looker

However, Damocles announces he has grave news. Due to the damages done to the school, Spring Break is extended with a week to get reparations done

Students: *Cheering*

Damocles: No! That is a bad thing!

Ghouls Rule

As each year prior to Halloween, the students of DuPont are shown a video to warn them of the dangers they might face up until after the holiday as Halloween traditionally is the day that the humans come out to hunt for monsters

Nino, who's about to experience his first Halloween ever, is terrified while the others are just bored from seeing the video so many times

The gang tells him not to worry, but a few monsters can’t help but share their experiences with humans

Alix: Whatshisface comes at my mom with a sword and slices her head clean off!

Lacey: They trapped my parents in lanterns and threw them in the water!

Nathaniel: They chiseled my father’s wings into little nubs and threw him off the chapel!

Alya: They tried to put my sisters in vacuums strapped on their backs!

Cosette: My old man got one of his horns stolen!

Kim: Pow! Silver bullet! Right in my uncle’s forehead! Dead upon impact!

Juleka: Holy water was everywhere!

Marc: I still wake up at night screaming, “PESTICIDE!”

Chloé: *Fearfully hugging Zoé* They were everywhere! They tried to burn us!

Sabrina: *Groans*

Everyone: *Gasps*

Chloé: That’s horrible! Sabrina, I’m so sorry.

Nino: None of you are helping!

As they are walking down the hallway, the school is egged & TP'ed. The students rush outside to find out who the vandals are and find two humans driving a pick-up truck warning them that Halloween is mere days ahead while throwing some more eggs, which hit many of the students

This event sets the student body on edge as they wonder if they are in danger and ponder on ways to get back at their attackers, even if Mme. Mendeleiv forbids retaliation

Meanwhile, Alya wants to write a story about Halloween and does some research in the library with Nino and Ivan, who notices a map among the books she's got with her; a map to the Hall of Halloween

They ask Jean, the resident catacombs expert if he knows anything about the place. However, he doesn't but is willing to help look for it. With the map, the four actually find the place and learn the true story of Halloween, a way for humans and monsters to celebrate together

Armed with this new knowledge, they return above ground, finding everything gathered outside around a mildly gruesome pumpkin display—another attack by the humans.

Adrien takes it lightly, believing the human students to be out of ideas, and picks up a pumpkin. This activates a mechanism that has all the students outside the target of a rain of pumpkins.

Damocles announces an emergency meeting in the auditorium, where he advises the students to not go outside without human disguise until Halloween is over

Nino protests and holds a speech about being proud of who you are and that he has discovered that Halloween used to be a holiday to celebrate monsters

However, the students take his speech the wrong way and declare they'll take back their holiday by force, and Chloé takes it upon herself to lead the movement with Sabrina as her right hand

Nino, Marinette, Adrien, Alya, Max, and Kim witness a number of students giving each other strange signals. Thanks to one very talkative gargoyle, they learn that there's a meeting in the courtyard later where the students will discuss their plans to get back at the humans.

After Chloé’s speech about taking back the holiday, the group goes into the catacombs to get to New Salem High to vandalize it like what had been done to DuPont

When they reach New Salem High, they find a huge Skull drawn onto the school's front side. As they are wondering what to do to top that kind of vandalism, the Police arrive to investigate the damage. The students run and, as per the Halloween Warning video's advice, hide in a variety of clever ways

Eventually, everyone makes their way in front of a certain house, where they discuss who could be responsible for the graffiti and how to get back to the catacombs.

Before they can move, the door opens and a girl, Aeon, invites them in for the party, thinking they are humans in Halloween costumes.

Inside, most wish to use the opportunity to still exact revenge, while others decide to just enjoy the party. Nino meets a human named Aeon, who takes a special interest in the new arrivals.

The monsters handle themselves well at the party until three more guests arrive: the two boys that trashed DuPont and their 'boss', Brigette Van Hellscream. Coming from a family of famed monster hunters, Brigette immediately suspects that some of the guests are monsters and is proven right when this one guy decides to check out Rose’s “costume”

Guy: Dude, that costume is rad.

Rose: Oh, uh… Thanks! Your costume is rad as well!

Guy: How do you get the bones so real? *Sticks his hand through Rose’s ribcage* … Uh…

Rose: PERVERT! *Removes her hand, and slaps him with it*

Guy: AAAAHH!!

Nino: AAAAAHHH!!

Lacey: *Her hair lights on fire* AAAAAHH!!

Adrien: WHY ARE WE SCREAMING?!

Marinette: I DON'T KNOW! AAAAAHHH!!

Chloé: AAAAAHHH!!

Marc: AAAAAAHHHH!!!

Random Guy: AAAAAAAAHHH!!

Kim: AAAAAAHHH!! *Takes a bite out of a sandwich* THIS IS GOOD! AAAAAHHH!!!

A fight between monsters and humans is prevented by Jess and Aeon, who point out that there is no proof they have to be afraid of them. But just then, a siren is heard outside, and everyone rushes out the door to see the police arresting Jean. When Brigette points out that there are more 'evil monsters' present, the rest of the students run, leaving Jean behind for the time being to be incarcerated for the vandalism to New Salem

Jean is taken to the police station and thrown in a cell where he demands to be released but the Sheriff taunts him by calling Jean Austin’s pet name from him, Songbird

Jean: … You wanna go ‘n repeat that, warden?

Sheriff: Go on! You’re the so called opera phantom! Sing us a song, songbird!

Jean: … Well. If you insist.

Cue a flashy Jailhouse Rock number as Jean escapes and makes all of the guards go deaf and/or insane

The police will obviously search DuPont, so he hides out in New Salem High. Using some makeup he always keeps on him, Jean makes his appearance more human-like and covers the hidden part of his face with his hair

They’re rightfully wary of their new environment, thinking everyone is ready to attack him for being a monster, until they realize that no one knows about their monster side. Everything’s fine until some jocks attempt to beat them up, but Jess and Aeon save them

Back at DuPont, all the students that went to New Salem have detention, and while there, they all try to figure out how to save Jean

Simon: My family stopped eating humans after that thing with the sirens, so that’s a no.

Nathaniel: Uh… Boiling oil?

Zoé: Oh! A mummy’s curse!

Cosette: Guys, I’ve picked locks with my horns, lemme at it.

Ivan: I say we throw big, heavy rocks.

Denise: Agreed.

Kim: Adrien! You’re a human! What do humans hate?!

Adrien: Uh… Sticking with New Year’s resolutions, taxes, spoilers to good movies, and family reunions.

Austin T: I don’t care if you turn those bastards to stone, burn them alive, eat them, or turn them into your mindless servants! I want my boyfriend back! I'll reap them all in my path if I have to!

At New Salem High, Jean is easily fitting in and going undiscovered, until some of his makeup smears off and he goes to reapply. Unfortunately for him, Brigette followed him

Shortly after, New Salem High gets vandalized a second time, and both the humans and monsters think it's Jean

Alix: *Examining the graffiti online with Nathaniel* This doesn’t make sense.

Nathaniel: Exactly

Kim: … Okay, what’s going on?

Nathaniel: Everyone knows Jean has a flare for the dramatics. But there’s nothing dramatic about this! It’s just a skull!

Alix: And Jean would never do their line work so crookedly. Something’s going on.

The humans call for Jean's arrest, while the monsters generally are impressed with and proud of his supposed accomplishments

Lila only fans the flames by taunting the humans from her Critter account as Jean, claiming he had everything to do with the vandalism. Also, Chloé is using "Jean's" rebellion as an example of how monsters should fight back against their oppressors

Nino, Marinette, Adrien, Max, Alya, and Kim don't know what to think of the mess, but they decide to stop Jean before things get out of hand even more. With Max’s help, they find out that Jean is somewhere inside New Salem High and they go out to get him that night

Coincidentally though, right that night, Brigette and her goons are working to vandalize their own school again, this time in costume and with a camera ready to film the act as fake evidence that monsters were behind the vandalism

Brigette immediately spots the group trying to get into New Salem High and gets the police. They find Jean hidden away in a closet, but the reunion is cut short when Brigette and the police arrive to arrest Jean

The group is once again put in detention. Worse, during their talk with Damocles, he receives a phone call to turn on the TV

The Sheriff holds an announcement that he will return the true meaning of Halloween by condemning Jean to the Trick-or-Treatment, a death sentence not used in two hundred years. Damocles is further informed by the Monster Elder Council that no action will be or may be taken to save Jean

As much as the news hits everyone, two people are particularly upset. Brigette never meant for an innocent to die because of her schemes, and Chloé realizes she used Jean for publicity and that he's going to suffer for it

At detention, Nino comes up with the idea to get help from Jess and Aeon, looking for evidence that Jean has been framed

The others help him escape, and he manages to contact Jess and Aeon, who are willing to help. Their investigation leads to the discovery that Brigette and her goons were behind the vandalism of New Salem High, which solves that mystery. But that still doesn’t explain why Jean confessed- Oh, wait! It was Lila! They’ll kill her later

The group sets up a confrontation for Chloé and Brigette within the catacombs as representatives of their respective parties. Despite everything, the two bond almost instantly over their shared sense of fashion, the equal pressure to live up to their family's expectations, and wanting to do what’s best for their respective sides, including helping Jean

They go to the sheriff to explain everything to him, but he reveals that he couldn't care less

*Back at DuPont*

Denise: Are you fucking kidding me?!

Juleka: This is why I don't care for law enforcement.

Ismael: Do they realize they’re about to murder a teenager? In Phantom Years, he’s fifteen! That’s… That’s just fucked up.

The gang works on a new plan. Just freeing Jean will only have the humans come and get him again so more has to be done.

When a plan is set to not only free Jean but also hopefully save every monster, the Salem High students dress as monsters to draw attention when Jean is put in the Trick-or-Treatment machine, which forces the police away from the device to arrest the monsters

Nino and Ivan use the diversion to free Jean and then make a run for it on Ivan’s ice slide, in which they are also assisted by Max, courtesy of his rocket boots

As the police figure out they've been duped and give chase to the real monsters in their cruisers, Jess and Aeon rouse the human crowd to take matters into their own hands and attack DuPont

Lacey and Kim taunt and get the mob to follow them to the Hall of Halloween where the students are awaiting their arrival, much to the humans’ confusion

Brigette comes forth to confess she is behind the vandalism that plagued New Salem and that though she meant to protect the humans, she realizes she had nothing to be afraid of

The humans accept the confession and invitation, but then the Sheriff and his officers finally arrive, intending to arrest Jean and all the monsters present. However, the New Salem students challenge him to arrest them as well if they want to get to the DuPont students

The Sheriff, wanting to avoid the fallout if he arrests the New Salem students, saves face by claiming it's past midnight, and that means he is off duty anyway before sneaking off to the snacks

With all conflict ended and subdued, the party commences

Friday Night Frights

The students of DuPont are watching the Skultimate RollerMaze game between the Nightmares of DuPont and the Gargoyles of Granite City, and both sides of the crowd are cheering for their team

The four fearleaders; Candace, Cosette, Denise and Juleka; are cheering for DuPot

Ivan: So, what is point in 'skate game.' I've known how to skate since I was up to height of yak's knee.

Rose: Ivan, Skultimate RollerMaze is so much more than just a skating game! It's a course full of twists, turns, obstacles and so much more, and- PUMMEL HIS ASS!... The whole point of the game is how you react to what's thrown at you. Plus, we've got a tradition with the Gargoyles. Whichever school wins, they get the other team's school crest

Rocco, the leader of the gargoyle team, grabs one of the camera bats, and Gary, his fellow teammate, crushes it to leave no evidence of their cheating. Rocco and Gary then knock over Kim and Soo-Yeon, leaving them in the dust whilst chasing after the rest of the team

Brecken and Austin Q go into the course to replace Kim and Soo-Yeon. Spinelli and Rocco are neck and neck during the course, determined to win for their respective schools.

Rocco and Gary then notice Brecken and Austin Q are gaining on them, only before Rocco declares that they might as well finish off DuPont who, according to him, 'plays like a bunch of girls' (this statement, oddly enough, angers the completely masked player behind them)

After going through yet another course, Gary trips Brecken, causing him to crash into Austin Q. The mask player trips over them, and is left behind by the team, who yet again, cheats; this time more discreetely

Whilst neck and neck with Spinelli, one of Rocco's skates mechanically removes a wheel from Spinelli's and the last member of the team falls to the ground right before crossing the finish line, thus allowing Granite City to win the game.

A few days later, the students of DuPont are all distraught about the loss. Ivan is confused as to why everyone is so upset about the game, but Myléne tells him it's bigger than he knows, pointing out how the school looks worse than it normally is

An announcement from Damocles lets them know that the school spirit is gone. Ivan thinks it's nothing until Sabrina explains that the school's crest has an actual spirit which protects the halls of DuPont from falling apart, literally

However, getting the crest back is not as easy as it sounds, because with three injured players of the team, they might not be able to make it to the finals in order to beat the Gargoyles

Sabrina decides to look for clues in order to prove that the Gargoyles did cheat, due to the fact of Spinelli's skates breaking just before the finish line, which is an extremely odd coincidence. And at the realization that they will not be able to play at all, Kim cancels SKRM for the season, much to everyone's shock.

Days later, the school continues to fall apart, everyone even more miserable than before. Candance, Cosette, Denise, and Juleka realize this and then, out of the blue, Candance hatches up a plan to recruit new members for the SKRM team, so that way DuPont can beat Granite City and win back the crest

After a bit of reluctance, the ghouls round up almost boy in the school and judge them for the skills needed in Skultimate RollerMaze; agility, strength... and the ability to skate, most importantly

Whilst doing this, Sabrina, joined by Max, is in the SKRM track, looking for evidence that the Gargoyles cheated, however a certain something distracts her. A piece of stone that isn't the same material as the gargoyles' ski

Meanwhile, the ghouls judge the students carefully, only to the news that most of them can't stand in rollerblades. Lucky for them, Lotta attempts to teach them, only to be taunted by the fact that a girl is teaching them how to do 'their' sport. Nonetheless, she wows them and at first, she's skeptical once Cosette suggests she participate on the team, especially once the boys continue to say that girls don't play SKRM

However Lotta recollects a memory of a certain SKRM superstar...Alix Kubdel! Despite this fact, the boys stick to their motto that Skultimate RollerMaze is for guys and they all leave them to fend for themselves, however they team up together and vow to win for DuPont

Naturally, at the sight of ghouls in SKRM gear, the school is shocked by the decision of Candance, Cosette, Juleka, Denise, and Lotta to take the place of the former team. The former members are surprised, but not against it

Kim, although, tries to persuade them not to play. According to him, Alix Kubdel was an amazing player, but got demolished and was never heard from again

Lotta: Ah, that's just a kid's story!... Right?

Kim: No. No, I'm serious. The gargoyles creamed her... Good luck, though!

However the training they attempt to persue in is worthless, due to their little to no knowledge of the sport. Most of them can barely skate or follow the rules, although they try and do what they can.

During this training, Max finds yet another piece of stone, this one in the shape of a snake

Chloé, who's been watching them train, daringly rescues Candace from crashing and getting injured. They offer her a spot on the team, although Chloé refuses, preferring to lead rather than follow

Their first match up is against the all zombie school, worst in the league. However, Denise gets very nervous and trips, thus causing the team to false start, and get disqualified

Some idiots even video taped the fiasco and mock them

Deciding she can't let this go on any longer, Chloé joins the team, helping them with their posture in order to maintain proper balance. Kim, Soo-Yeon, Brecken, Austin Q, and Spinelli join in coaching them

After a strict training regimen, they're are ready for their debut against Vampire Academy. They play well, but are bested at the last minute by rough tactics of the vampires

During the game, Chloé was knocked into a pile of tires that contained a stone hand. Sabrina explains that is the last piece she and Max needed to rebuild Alix Kubdel, who had been trapped in stone for a few years

Alix offers her assistance as player and one piece of advise "... Quit playing like stupid boys and win like girls!" Thus inspiring their new fashionable outfits

When the gargoyles stop by their school to taunt them, they begin to mock the new outfits, and Alix and the masked player lock eyes for a moment. Before the two can say anything to each other, they're dragged away by their respective teammates

The DuPont team enters a round robin tournament, and eventually make their way up the leader board until they qualify for the final match between Granite City. Instilling the school with pride, they are are now wildly popular and even gained the respect of a few male students

The final match against Granite city is intense. The gargoyles try to muscle the team, but they use the agility and Cadance's powers to avoid many pitfalls

Eventually Denise gets injured, and Kim calls an injury timeout. Juleka is nervous about going in until Kim gives her some encouragement. The team starts up again

During the final stretch, Rocco and Gary about to go after Cosette, but then the masked player, suddenly tackles two gargoyles to the ground

Masked Player: I am done with you assholes!

Everyone: *Gasp*

Ivan: Now this is interesting.

Alix and Cosette slingshot Juleka to the front with Rocco. In a photo finish, Juleka wins by a leg

Now the champions, DuPont wins back their crest, thus restoring the school from its dilapidated state, and they get Granite High's Crest, but they decide to keep it for a week, since they're not complete assholes

Okay! Dramatic Reveal time!

Soo-Yeon: Let's just see who's under this mask! *Pulls off the masked skater's mask*

Everyone: Someone we don't know?!

Alix: NATH!

Nathaniel: *Alix hugs him* Hey, Alix.

Cosette: ... So, can we get an explanation here?

Nathaniel: Yeah, those assholes over at Granite High hated that a girl was better than them, so they turned a mirror on her during one game and broke her into pieces. I joined them so I could gather evidence, of them cheating and keep them from doing the same to other players. *Shows a small camera hidden in his helmet* Here's about a year's worth.

The movie ends with a role call of the new co-ed team: Kim, Chloé, Brecken, Soo-Yeon, Austin Q, Spinelli, Alix, Cosette, and Denise

Scaris

Marinette plans a Flashion Mob, a surprise fashion show starring herself and her friends at school. Meanwhile, Ismael chases after a scarf made out of spider's silk given to him by Reshma, his best friend from Scaremerica, which was knocked from his hand by students attracted by the attention from Marinette's show

However, thanks to a mix-up orchestrated by Lila, Kim is put in a dress and heels and ends up tripping and abruptly ending the show

Thanks to Alya, however, the fashion show was put on FrightTube (with the awkward ending edited out) and had gotten quite a large amount of views, including Moanatella Ghostier, a renowned fashion designer

To Marinette's disbelief, Moanatella emails her, explaining she needs a protégé to carry on her designs, as she was running out of ideas, and when people stop paying attention to her, she fades away

So, she sends for three students, Eri Tanaka, Austin Armbruster, and last but not least, Marinette

With some encouragement from the others, Marinette agrees to go to Scaremerica. Of course, her closest friends and her significant others join in order to offer support

On the plane, Ismael tells Alix about Reshma and how she would send him accesories she made from her silk. However, she had stopped writing letters to her some time ago, and Ismael worries what this means for their friendship

So, Alix, being a kind soul, offiers to take Ismael to find Reshma and get an explanation

Finally in Scaremerica, the group drops Marinette off at Moanatella's headquarters, and Ismael, Alix, Lacey, and Sabrina go to look for Reshma while the remainder of the group take in the sights

Marinette meets Eri and Austin, and though friendly with each other, Moanatella coldly reminds them that only one of them will be her apprentice

With Sabrina's scooter, the chase for Reshma begins elsewhere when they spot someone else on a scooter with a jacket akin to Reshma's. Unfortunately the chase is a bust, as the rider was only someone else, and Sabrina crashes and breaks her scooter beyond repair. Meanwhile, in the cafe, the others discuss places to go sightseeing only to see Sabrina very sad about her scooter. Chloé offers to pay for a new one, but Sabrina assures her she knows a way to make money

Somewhere, in Moanatella Ghostier's Headquarters, Marinette notices Eri's book around and asks to see her designs, but she becomes angry and scolds her about the competition and that they're not supposed to be helping each other

As the trials go on, Marinette is berated for the third time for not following fashion rules. She finds the courage to look for inspiration in her old sketchbook, but Moanatella instructs her to throw it away if she wants to be part of the fashion industry. So, she starts designing like her while

After that, Moanatella tells the three designers that if they hear her ring the bell three times, it meant she decided

In a cafe, Ismael, Alix, and Lacey discuss Reshma and find a clue as to where she was

Back at Moantella's headquarters, Eri and Austin A find Marinette's sketchbook and are amazed by her designs. They realize Moantella's methods are harming her creativity, as well as their own

Now in a subway, Ismael, Alix, and Lacey are lead by a string of a spider's web to the forbidden area where it is said that no monster who came in ever came out alive

Ismael/Lacey/Alix: ...

Lacey: ... Let's go in!

They find Reshma, who has been used by Moanatella for her fashion designs. This was why she couldn't write to Ismael anymore. She reveals to them whoever wins Moanatella's "apprenticeship" will be locked up in the same place and be used just like him

At that moment, Moanatella and Marinette enter, and Moanatella traps Marinette in a cell with them

The others wander the streets, trying to find the others until Kim picks up their scents and follows them to the cells. Using their powers, they rescue them, but rather than wanting to flee, Marinette announces a desire to beat Moanatella at her own game.

Eri and Austin A show up, having sensed that something bad will happen, and give Marinette her old design book back. The rest get to work designing a full fashion clothing line, while Moanatella sets up her own fashion show across town

Despite having lots of help, the ghouls aren't going to get finished in time, so they give Marinette, Eri, Austin A, and Reshma pure black coffee, which causes them to work double-time

At last, the clothes are finished, so they gather them up to take it to the fashion show. Sabrina (who has bought a car with the money she's earned!) offers to help them get to the show

They crash Moanatella's show and show off Marinette's real fashion line. The people love it and cheer her on, causing Moanatella to vanish forever because no one is paying attention to her. Reshma, Eri, and Austin A express a desire to transfer to DuPont, and all is well

13 Wishes

A thousand years after some event no one remembers or knows, DuPont welcomes back the students for the new semester. Everyone talks about the upcoming events for the year such as the upcoming eclipse while expressing what they wish would happen throughout the new school year

Chloé, angered by the disrespect by some newer students, plans to take action against that and make sure they know she is not to be missed with despite Zoé's protests against it

However, her attempt at flaunting her status with a personalized locker that displays her name in lights causes a blackout. Zoé, Myléne, Nathaniel, Kagami, Adrien, and Sabrina,who were attempting to stop her before she could turn on the lights, are punished by Damocles to clean the school attic

Zoé tries to understand her sister’s reasoning but is dismissed by Chloé quickly. As she moves away and cleans more of the attic, Chloé unknowingly eventually finds a lantern and releases a genie named Gigi

The genie introduces herself and explains that Chloé is her new finder and is granted thirteen wishes

Adrien: Um, don't the legends say the finder gets three wishes?

Gigi: Oh, those were mistranslated. Yeah, you actually get thirteen wishes.

Adrien: Yeesh. Better not let Disney hear that.

Chloé uses her first wish to wish them and herself out of detention. As Gigi grants the wish, they disappear in a flash of light and unintentionally free a shadow version of Gigi, who follows them unseen

They later arrive at the mall to hang out as Gigi elaborates on Chloé's twelve remaining wishes and warns her there is a ‘dark side’ to using them. Seeing Chloé excited about using her wishes, Zoé advises her to take Gigi’s words seriously

Chloé, however, takes it defensively and runs off with the lantern while annoyed at her sister's words

Later, back at DuPont, Alya helps Marinette run against Louis for Student Disembodied President while Adrien shows Gigi around the school. Despite the argument earlier, Chloé took the advice to heart and uses some of her wishes to help her friends: Ondine can shift between freshwater and saltwater so both sides of her family won't despise her, Marc and Nathaniel's graphic novel becomes an overnight sensation and gains millions of fans, and Marinette becomes the new disembodied president

Before Chloé can congratulate herself, Lila torments her in the bathroom and leaves her crying alone. Watching from afar, the shadow genie uses this opportunity to take advantage of Chloé to wish for things more for herself

She summons Gigi, who is alarmed by the shadow genie and warns Chloé about the wishes. However, the shadow genie reminds her about the rules and Chloé uses her next wish to become even more popular

While enjoying her popularity, Chloé offers to wish the same for Zoé, who politely turns her down, not comfortable with all the attention

Adrien then talks with Gigi about her life in the lantern and discovers that she’s lonely and will leave DuPont after the last wish is granted. Not wanting his new friend to leave, Adrien looks for some sort of loophole

Adrien: If Disney's taught me anything, there are always loopholes!

Gigi: You keep mentioning Disney, what is it? Is it like a book?

Adrien: Eh, little of this, little of that. Disney is everywhere and cannot be stopped. So far, it owns many major networks and will soon take control of all television.

Gigi: That is frightening.

Adrien: I know, right?

As days pass, some of the side-effects of the wishes begin to affect the school and cause problems such as Ondine having an identity crisis, Marc and Nathaniel receiving hundreds of commissions a day, and Marinette's ideas as president not being taken well by the school

Zoé then tells Adrien and Gigi that Chloé is beginning to not act like herself, and she senses something strange within the shadows. Adrien asks if Gigi knows anything, but Gigi tells them that she cannot say anything due to the Lantern’s magic. Adrien and Zoé then try to find out on their own what is wrong with Chloé but are dismissed by her thanks to the shadow genie's influence

Kagami encounters Chloé and irks her enough to wish for Kagami to be turned into a nobody, making her unnoticeable by every student, including her partners

Zoé confronts Chloé on what she was doing. But rather than listen, she uses her next wish to make Zoé disappear into the lantern, leaving her shadow behind and giving Whisp more power

Adrien, Sabrina, and Nathaniel notice the changes and later find Gigi crying in the greenhouse with Myléne comforting her. Gigi is reluctant to explain as she is not allowed to influence the finder, but Sabrina points out that they are not the finder and Gigi should be able to tell them

With that logic, she leads the group away to the attic to explain everything regarding the shadow genie, Whisp and where the real Zoé is. She warns them of Whisp’s plan to use the eclipse and one of Chloé's wishes to gain all the power to banish everyone at DuPont and replace them with shadow versions to rule the world

Wanting to save their friends, Adrien and the others help devise a plan to save Zoé using an orb given to them by Gigi, which will allow them to leave the lantern. They later find Chloé and Shadow Zoé in the bathroom and confront Chloé to make her purposely wish them into the lantern to find Zoé, unknowingly leaving their shadow versions behind to cause trouble

Inside the lantern, Adrien, Nathaniel, Myléne, and Sabrina successfully find Zoé, but not without being confronted by Whisp, who lets them know that she has power within the lantern

They escape from her, and Zoé then shows them the ‘Genieology’ telling of Gigi’s story and why she was reluctant to interfere. They use a map to search for the missing shard of a mirror that will stop Whisp for goof

Meanwhile in DuPont, Mason senses a disturbance in the shadows and tries to help snap Chloé out of it while helping Kagami look for the others

The shadow monsters then make their move and help Chloé take over the school by replacing Damocles with herself as Headmistress and banishing Marinette and Kagami to the lantern, who then join the others to find the mirror pieces

As the monsters prepare for an eclipse party, Mason follows Chloé and sees that Whisp is the one controlling her. When he attempts to take the lamp, he gets captured by Chloé's henchmen. And rather than using up any more wishes, Chloé has Mason thrown in the basement with the other disorderly students

After finding twelve pieces of the mirror, the group find Whisp’s room and realize she has the last piece. After nearly losing the exit orb, Kagami gets it back and they return to DuPont with magic carpets Myléne managed to snag. They find DuPont has been turned into some sort of temple in honor of Chloé complete with gold statues

Adrien: Where did they get gold from?!

Marinette: At this point, are you surprised by anything anymore?

Adrien: Hey, monsters are the norm, but I want to know where they got all of that gold! Did they steal it?! Did she wish for it?! These are legitimate questions! And the audience deserves to know as well! People reading this, get up out of your chairs and demand answers!

Whisp tries to influence Chloé to make the wish, but Mason, who escaped his prison through the shadows, steals the last mirror shard and assembles the mirror to break the spell. Upon seing her reflection along with past moments she shared with her friends and sister, Chloé awakes in time and rejoins the others without making the wish, causing Whisp to fail as the eclipse ends

Chloé uses one of the remaining two wishes to undo all of her previous wishes, much to everyone's delight

Gigi is joined by a defeated Whisp, explaining the last wish will send them both back into the lantern. The monsters are reluctant to let Gigi go and plead for her to stay

Adrien: Just wish for her to be free! Come on! They did in Aladdin! Am I the only smart person here?

Chloé uses her last wish for Gigi’s freedom and surprisingly for Whisp to become what she always wanted to be: a real genie. Gigi happily grants the wish, freeing herself and allowing Whisp to become the new genie of the lantern

However, when Whisp leaves with the lantern, she falls down into the deep end pool to be found again someday...

Ondine: ... I can just go get her. I mean, I can swim and breathe underwater-

Adrien: IT'S MORE DRAMATIC THIS WAY! MOVIE'S OVER!

Frights, Camera, Action

A large part of the DuPont student body chooses to catch the new Vampire Majesty movie before classes one day. Juleka is among them, even though she openly disapproves of the inaccuracy of the Vampire Majesty series and considers its leading actress, Veronica Von Vamp, a hack

Rather than going to see the movie, Rose, Marinette, Nathaniel, Alix, and Marc listen to her about the true story of the Vampire Court in Transylvania, which she grew up amidst. With rare enthusiasm, she explains that the vampires find their leader by listening to the Vampire's Heart, a magic artifact that can locate the rightful ruler and lights up in their presence

However, the Vampire's Heart has failed to lead the vampires to their new ruler for four centuries and counting, though

Meanwhile, in Transylvania, the Prime Minister and interim leader of the vampires, Lord Stoker, has a problem. For four hundred years, the true ruler and the Vampire's Heart have been missing, but only he knows that his own niece Elissabat was supposed to rule, a fact only few know, but she fled when he tried to control her and no one knows her current whereabouts

Stoker has been pretending to be searching for the true ruler for centuries as a cover to continue his own reign. However, the Royal Court of Vampire Dignitaries has grown tired of waiting and threatens to replace him if he can't present the rightful ruler soon.

Trying to win time, he claims he can do so within a week. Remembering Juleka from centuries ago, he remembers that she is weak and shy and decides to make everyone believe her to be the queen so he can control her and continue his rule

Later at DuPont, Lord Stoker arrives and convinces Juleka with a fake Vampire's Heart that she is the queen, while also ensuring the other vampire students respect her, or face severe consequences for their disrespect

Juleka reluctantly agrees to return to Transylvania for her coronation in seven days but asks if her friends and brother can come along. Stoker doesn't object, so Marinette, Rose, Alix, Nathaniel, and Marc join her. Luka only joins because he's skeptical

After a long journey, the final portion is by train, during which Juleka and Luka tell a little about their past and reveal that the relations between their family and Stoker's are complicated and have been mostly dormant since everyone disappeared four centuries ago

Rose notes that her father was in Transylvania around that time. She herself seems to have more knowledge of the events at the time than is likely for her to know, but the group doesn't pay too much attention to it

At Castle Dracula, the group is delighted at first, and Juleka and Luka shows them all kinds of secret passages they remember from her childhood, and the group enjoys the luxuries of a royal lifestyle.

The situation changes instantly, though, when Luka finds his way into Stoker's office and learns that Juleka had been deceived. He shows the the fake heart, and with support from the others Juleka decides to fight back and find the real ruler for her people

Marinette and Marc deduce that there must be a clue to the who and where of the ruler is in Stoker's office, and so Juleka volunteers to distract Stoker while the others search the place for leads. Juleka has no trouble with her part, but the office doors are guarded. Fortunately, on top of being an excellent guard, Nathaniel's good at picking locks...

Nathaniel: All it takes is a steady hand... *Punches the knob off* See how steady my hand was?

The group finds a letter by Elissabat taped to the back of a portrait of Dracula, who was her father's closest friend. It reveals that she is the next Vampire Ruler and begs Dracula to help her escape Stoker's control. She had to take the Vampire's Heart with her so she could be found when she fled, but she wished for Dracula to take it from her and keep it safe. Of course, Dracula never found the letter, but the group can use its clue to find Elissabat on their own

The clue leads them to Londoom, England. They escape and use a boat docked in an underground cavern to travel to Londoom

Luka calls Adrien, Kagami and the rest of his friends at school. He explains the situation and sends them a picture of Elissabat from four hundred years ago to help search through the internet

Back in Transylvania, because someone carelessly left a book opened (Not gonna name names) on a page about Londoom when they were in his office, Stoker knows where they are

The group is welcomed in Londoom by Kierstin, Kim's older sister, who studies there to become a writer. She takes them to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of Londoom, as that's what the group thinks the riddle refers to

There is, however, no note inside. Kierstin asks what the clue was and upon hearing it, realizes that the "crown" refers to the skull rather than jewelry and points the group at a statue of William Spooksfear near the Globe Theater

Marc flies up to get the skull and unlocks it, finding the next note. Elissabat writes that Londoom is no longer safe and that she'll travel further to New Goreleans, where she hopes Dracula will finally meet her. She even included a map. The group, along with Kierstin, return to their boat and sets sail for the USA, unaware Stoker's servant, Ygor is following them.

In New Goreleans, the map leads them to a ghost ship named the Bijou on the Bayou. On board, they meet Gerard Grundler, who is collecting samples from the swamp. He reveals the Bayou Bijou to be a ship famous for its numerous big-name guests and performers

Suddenly, Ygor hijacks the Bayou Bijou. The group appears caught at first, but Gerard calls upon the alligators living in the bayou to form a bridge to the shore. They escape, but Ygor sinks the Bijou on the Bayou, meaning the ghost ship isn't accessible anymore until the next full moon

The fear that they have to wait a full month to go back to look for clues is erased by Gerard, who took a few pictures of the Bijou on the Bayou and shows an encased letter by Elissabat

The letter reveals that Elissabat gave the Vampire's Heart to someone both she and Dracula trust, which Rose believes to be Veronica. Not only was she in New Goreleans at the time, the movie poster for the next Vampire Majesty movie depicts her holding the Vampire's Heart

The group sets out for Hauntlywood, which Kierstin is very pleased with and which has Gerard choosing to come along. Ygor continues to follow them and informs Lord Stoker of their new destination. Tired of it Ygor's failed attempts, Stoker transforms into a bat and heads off to Hauntlywood himself to capture Juleka

In Hauntlywood, Alix convinces threatens the guard at the gates to allow them entrance to the studios. Soon, the group is witness to a minor accident involving the director Scareantino and an intern makeup artist by the name of Cosette

They help Cosette out, which she thanks them for before hurrying along. The group continues on as well and is by sheer coincidence able to get Kirtstin a job as co-writer of Scary Stone

Rose locates Veronica's trailer, which the group gains access to with the help of Cosette, who has to do Veronica's makeup. All seems to be going well, but when asked about Elissabat, Veronica refuses to help, explaining that she promised Elissabat to keep her secret

Even a moving speech by Juleka about duty and the well-being of the vampires doesn't convince Veronica to say anything. The group is crestfallen, but Rose urges them to continue looking here in Hauntlywood because she feels Elissabat can't be far off

Meanwhile at DuPont, the Vampire Majesty movies have caused a conflict among the students at Monster High about which male love interests are hotter: Alucard or Edweird, with Chloé and Austin A leading the opposing sides of the argument. Evie, Austin T, Jean, Ismael, Brecken, and a few others stay out of it as the argument escalates as more students side with Chloé or Austin A

Fed up, Jean organizes a Cute Court for the students to decide who is the bigger hunk. Evie, who is not interested in either, is chosen as judge, Brecken gets to be the bailiff, and Sabrina is the court clerk.

After a long debate, Sabrina asks Max for scientific advice. It is then that Max makes a huge discovery: Alucard and Edweird are played by the very same actor!

Evie dismisses the case, and the students end the fight. However, Max is not done yet comparing people, now that she has solved one thing this way. Taking the photo of Elissabat that Adrien and Kagami have shown him and a poster depicting Veronica Von Vamp, Max realizes that the two girls are the same person

As the group keeps looking for Elissabat, they stumble into the Vampire Majesty studio, where they are ambushed by Lord Stoker, who demands that Juleka returns to Transylvania with him, but Luka offers to go in her place and comes up with an excuse on why the heart glowed around Juleka

Stoker is about to go along with this until Veronica comes to their aid by calling her security guards on Stoker. Juleka once again begs Veronica to tell where Elissabat is, and Veronica chooses in her favor this time

Taking off her wig, she reveals that she is, in fact, Elissabat. She asks Rose to take her hand, which causes Rose to light up. Elissabat explains that the person she entrusted the Vampire's Heart to was a skeleton guard, who in turn entrusted it to his daughter by placing it behind her ribcage after she was born

She's now willing to take on her role as queen, and as her first decree, Elissabat disowns her uncle and banishes him from ever holding an official office in the vampire community ever again, having her security guards drag him out of the lot

And it's at that moment, Cosette and Gerard find the others and tell them that they've decided to transfer to DuPont

At the movie premiere, Elissabat holds a speech to celebrate her acting successes and the honor of being the new Vampire Queen. She makes a point of thanking Juleka for her efforts in setting things right in the vampire community, and the movie starts

Freaky Fusion

Nino is being chased by a… Well, a monster. Six other students, with some bizarre looks, arrive to save him and escape from the monster through the hallways of DuPont

Adrien: Pause! Hello, I’m Adrien. You might know me as one of the few human students at DuPont School For Monstrous Youths. You may be wondering what my bro Nino is running from, who are those other monsters, and why they look so peculiar? Well, it happens like this…

DuPont is celebrating its 200th anniversary. Jean and Myléne are organizing a play to commemorate DuPont’s history

In class, the students are presenting their scaritage projects to Mme. Bustier

After Chloé finishes her presentation, Max shares about his mother, Claudia Steam, a mad scientist and a former teacher at DuPont who discovered the secret to creating life. One day, she mysteriously disappeared and Max held onto a time box to remember her

After Max, it is Nino’s turn to present. Unfortunately, he failed the project due to his lack of knowledge of his heritage and had to redo the project

Meanwhile, four new students arrive. All four of them are hybrids, and react standoffishly when greeted by the students

In the cafeteria, Nino, Adrien, Nathaniel, Ivan, Reshma, Cosette, Luka, Ismael, Jean, and Chloé, are having lunch together. Nino is still upset about not knowing much about his grandfather, Victor Frankenstein since his parents refuse to talk about him

Adrien: Why not?

Nino: Well, every time I try to go to my mom, she hisses, and when I got to my dad, he just goes, “RRRR! GRANDPA BAD!”

Max overhears and takes the group to his mother’s old workshop in the catacombs, where he believes has his mother’s old journal with information about Victor

After a long journey in the catacombs, the gang reaches the entrance to Claudia’s workshop and learns that it can only be accessed at the right time

The group searched and eventually found Claudia's journal, which explains that Victor was a DuPont student who was obsessed with discovering the spark to create life

On accident, Ismael's tail wraps around a lever. As he pulls it back, a machine activates and opens a portal, pulling all of them inside

The students eventually find themselves in the year 1814, realizing that the machine was actually a time machine that sent them back 200 years into the past to when DuPont was recently built

They decide to wait an hour until the lab opens again, but curiosity gets the better of them, so they go explore DuPont

There, Nino and Max witness Claudia Steam in a class session, berating a student named Sparky, who is interested in learning to create life

After class, Nino talks to Sparky and explains to him that his grandfather created life, getting Sparky interested... So interested that he sneakily follows Nino and his friends as they use the time machine to return home

However, The machine began experiencing malfunctions as the students are traveling through the portal.

Nino, Max, and Adrien return to the present, all limbs accounted for, but they discover that the others have been fused into Ivaniel, Rosette, Lukael, and Chloéan

Ivaniel: Okay... NO ONE IS TO PANIC!

Rosette: God! I have so much pent-up rage! *Kicks a hole in the wall*

Lukael: This fur is so damn itchy!

Chloéan: *Admiring their outfit* I'm... Not hating this.

Until Max can fix the time machine, they're stuck like this and must go about their usual day... Right when they're supposed to rehearse for the 200th-anniversary play

Ivaniel is uncoordinated due to his wings and ice powers suddenly flaring up, Rosette can't control her arms or tail, Lukael's vampire and werecat senses are causing some overstimulation, and Chloéan can't decide who will take the lead.

The hybrid students take pity on them after witnessing the rehearsal and decide to help the fusions learn how to control themselves

Meanwhile, Sparky, who had followed the students to the present, steals a piece of the time machine, believing it is the secret ingredient to creating life

First, Ivaniel learns how to control his power and appendages

Lukael is getting a walkthrough on how to focus on a certain sound when it comes to his hearing

Rosette is learning how to have some better control over their newly added appendages

Chloéan gets a little lesson about leadership, such as which part of her takes charge and how not to let their new and confusing instincts take control over them

The Hybrids successfully help the new Fusions learn to control their bodies and powers, and everything seems to be going fine... Though, Sparky's been occupying the catacombs for a few days now

And he's created a monster he calls Creature 4.0

While in the lab, Max is nearly done fixing the time machine but discovers that a piece of it missing and quickly goes to inform the others

After Sparky successfully brings his monster to life, it goes on a rampage throughout DuPont after having a severe reaction to a camera, because Franken monsters don't do bright lights

It interrupts the school play and the students learn of Sparky’s antics

With the help of the Hybrids, they plan to lure Creature 4.0 back into the catacombs to shut it down

The creature continues to chase the monsters in the hallways and starts to steal Nino's classmates one by one

Having enough, Nino stands his ground and as the monster reaches for him, he sends a powerful current of electricity into it. In the process, this defuses the fusions and frees his friends

Upon witnessing this, Sparky learns that Nino's emotions are what gave him true life, which is something that his creation lacked.

After defeating Creature 4.0, Nino collapses. But, before he can shut his eyes, he learns that Sparky is his grandfather, Victor Frankenstein, before dying

In a panic, the students go to use Max’s recharge chamber in hopes of reviving Nino but fail, and begin mourning him

Just then, Claudia suddenly emerges from the time machine to help (Yeah, don't ask). She advises everyone to think of their best memories of Nino to save him since emotions are what gave him life

Alya spreads the word and everyone at DuPont begins sharing their best memories of Nino until he is successfully revived

Everyone then bids farewell to Claudia and Victor as they use the time machine to return to their timeline

The school play resumes, explaining DuPont's history and sharing the belief that every monster with unique flaws, is welcome at DuPont, or something corny like that

Great Scarrier Reef

It's a normal day at DuPont. Several students are practicing for a dance recital in the auditorium, and not doing very well due to Spinelli's complex cheoreography

Ondine, who's helping to set up for the recital's after party, watches them practice from afar, and despite Kim's encouragement to join, she declines

After they leave, Ondine steps on stage and dances superbly by herself. She then realizes Kim is watching her after he went back to get his bag, and utterly freezes up and faints

After waking her up, Kim asks why he doesn't dance with the others. Kim explains she used to dance back in her home at the Great Scarrier Reef but won't dance anymore. She leaves, unaware that Lila had seen her performance.

The dance recital takes place. The students are not impressed by the terrible dancing, and Spinelli couldn't be more embarrassed

Lila spots Ondine dancing along behind the backstage curtains and pulls back the curtains. Ondine freezes upon seeing everyone watching her and ends up getting tangled and strung up in the stage rigging.

The next day, Ondine is horrified to discover a video of her mishap has gone viral and created hundreds of meme pictures

Enraged, she pleads with Aurore to uninvite Lila from the after party, and she complies. The party, which is next to the outdoor pool, is in full swing and everyone is having fun until Lila storms in, demanding to know why she wasn't invited

Everyone calls her out for embarrassing Ondine, and the two start yelling at each other, unaware of the water in the pool turning into a whirlpool

Lila pushes Ondine into the pool, and Kim dives in to help her

Ivan: He realizes she can swim well, yes?

Myléne: Hush, it's sweet.

Adrien, Evie, Brecken, and Spinelli attempt to pull them out, but all of them are sucked under the water and vanish.

Everyone: ...

Roxie: *Backs away* And, we're backing away from the pool now.

When the group comes to, they discover not only are they underwater, but they have all transformed into half-fish creatures (Save for Ondine)

They are then greeted, rather dramatically, by Victoria, a mermaid, merman, merperson, whichever. Victoria explains that she cares for a reef garden, where each plant represents a sea creature. She's noticed that Odine's plant was wilting and summoned her to the ocean to help her (and bought the others down by accident)

Victoria: *Dramatically* RETURN FROM WHENCE YOU CAME!

Ondine: ... So, just go home?

Victoria: Yeah, just go home.

After swimming a long distance and getting used to their forms, they find themselves inside an underwater amphitheater, where they witness several sea creatures performing a dance

Ondine recognizes one of them - A squid girl named Margo

She explains that she and Margo used to be friends when they were children and once competed in a dance competition together. But one time before a competition, Margo started acting nastily toward her and deliberately tripped her up on stage. Ondine was laughed off the stage and has had stage fright ever since

The group heads to the Scarrier Reef city, where they meet Ondine's father, Arturo, her sisters, Olivia, Ophelia, Octavia, Olga, Oona, and Olympia. Arturo welcomes them to stay at his place

Along with hydra twins, Wade and Ripple, Margo watches Ondine from afar and begins plotting to embarrass her again

While Ripple is happy to go along with her, Wade feels they're being too harsh, resulting in the two siblings constantly fighting.

The next day, Arturo warns the group that a Kraken has been sighted in the area. After promising to stay out of trouble, Ondine, Kim, Adrien, Evie, Brecken, and Spinelli head out and try to figure out what Ondine needs to do to keep her plant from wilting and by proxy, get them back home

They run into Margo, who challenges Ondine to compete against her in a dance competition tomorrow. Ondine is reluctant, but when Kim encourages her (With puppy eyes) she agrees

That night, while practicing for the competition, Ondine is met by Wade and a sleeping Ripple. Wade tells her that he heard a legend about the Kraken: If she looks the Kraken in the eye, she will never feel fear again

Ondine thanks him for the help, but when he leaves, "Wade" removes his makeup, revealing him to be Ripple!

Ondine announces she's going to see the Kraken, and despite their protests and Kim's puppy eyes, they all agree to go with her. They swim down to the bottom of a deep-sea trench and go through the tunnels until they reach a large cave

Surprisingly, they discover a small living quarters and several drawings on the wall

Adrien: Huh. Does this mer-squid look familiar? *Points to a messy drawing of someone with tentacles*

Evie: I swear I have seen those markings before. Oh, and that hairstyle is quite familiar.

Brecken: Not really ringin' any bells- Wait... I'm seeing something. *Gasps* Guys! Oh my God! Margo's not a mer-squid, she's-

Kraken: *Growling*

Brecken: ... I'll tell ya'll later.

They barely make their escape. Finally feeling ready to take to the stage, Ondine and the group head to the competition

But just last minute, Margo reveals that there is no legend about seeing the Kraken's eye. She just made it up to trick her. Ondine is nervous, but Kim assures her that dancing on stage shouldn't be a problem after their narrow escape

Ondine takes to the stage and begins her dance. All goes well, but Ondine sees the audience and faints again at the climax of the act

Margo laughs at her, and the audience starts joining in, but Kim rushes to her defense

Kim: What kind of civilized people laugh at a humiliated teenage girl?! I mean, seriously! She faints, and you decide to laugh at her?! What the hell?! Shame on you, and you! And you! And especially you, sir!

When Spinelli proclaims that she even faced the Kraken, the crowd begins cheering for Ondine. Enraged, Margo lets out an ear-piercing scream... and the Kraken suddenly appears

The group swims back to the garden and beg Victoria to return them to DuPont. Victoria agrees but tells her that she still must face her fear

They summon a whirlpool and sends the gang through. They emerge back at DuPont, restored to their original selves, but Margo and the Kraken emerge from the pool

As the Kraken begins smashing the school, Ondine asks her friends and the other students to distract the Kraken while confronts Margo

She faces Margo realizing that all along, it was her and her bullying that was her greatest fear, but Margo cries that she was the one who was bullied, that everyone is always mocking her for her appearance

Hearing this, Ondine comforts her friend, and gives it to her straight

Ondine: DuPont has a cockatrice, troll, naga, ogre, and Jersey Devil. I think you'll fit right in around here

Margo tells the Kraken to stop... and reveals it is actually her father! She explains that she hated how her father was always considered evil by the townsfolk and eventually felt ashamed, so she decided to live away from him. She realizes she was wrong for not telling everyone how nice her father is and for bullying Ondine, who forgives her

With the school repaired, everyone celebrates with a party by the pool. Back at the Great Scarrier Reef, Victoria sees that Ondine and Margo's plants are finally back to full health, then he goes to fill out his transfer papers so he can attend DuPont

Haunted

Annoyed by the lack of gossip in the school, Alya searches for news for her blog. Angered by her punishment for plagiarizing an essay with being hit with detention, Lila messes with Alya's draft and creates a rumor about the werewolves and werecats of the school having were-fleas

As the rumor sends the students into chaos with staying clear of Kim and Ismael. Alya observes what Lila caused and faces backlash for it

A short while later, Marinette begins to experience hauntings, with her locker acting strange, finding herself talking back to the teacher out of turn, and someone changing her hairstyle.

Kim and Ismael confront Alya about the post, but before she can explain she had nothing to do with it, she flees when Marinette, Nathaniel, Denise, and Cosette ask her about the hauntings

They follow her to the school's attic and watch as she unlocks a door and disappears into it. Still following her, they find themselves on a boat, piloted by the son of the Grim Reaper himself, Austin Tomassian. With his father away in Las Plagueas, Austin has the boat to himself, even installing confetti cannons on it

Alys appears and is shocked by their presence and explains about the Ghost World, where most ghosts live due to the stigma of their hauntings. Austin then explains that the boat is taking them to Haunted High, Alya's old school. 

Marinette explains her hauntings. Austin finds that impossible, as there hasn't been a haunting since the notorious Red Lady, a ghost who could move easily between the Ghost and Monster worlds until she was apprehended and imprisoned to work off her crimes

The boat falls prey to a pirate ship, the Salty Spectre, led by the teen ghost pirate, Beck King. However, it's just for a class at Haunted High

Dressing in robes, the gang enters the school. Alya reminisces about her old school but is shocked to see the number of students draped in detention chains, handed out by Principal Revenant and the three Hall Moanitors.

The group heads into the cafeteria to find the perpetrator of Marinette's hauntings. There they meet Alya's old best friend, Jacques, son of the jumbee, who has gone from the shyest to the most popular guy in school. As Alya introduces him, he suddenly becomes nervous and flies off

Their attention is then drawn to Petrov Geist, son of a poltergeist, who is vandalizing the cafeteria with ghost paint, which evaporates quickly, though the students cheer him on as he does it. The Hall Moanitors catch him in the act and shackle him after he crashes into Alya

When they try to chain Alya, she explains she is not a student at the school and is from DuPont. Revenant then spontaneously has the rules changed and unveils her friends as solids. They flee, pursued by the Moanitors, who discover the chains do not work on solids. They safely arrive back at DuPont, but Alya is chained and dragged back to Haunted High.

To get back into the ghost world, Mason takes them to the Boogie Mansion to look for the Boogie Sand that will turn them into ghosts so they can move around the ghost world undetected

Mason: Now. I have a very meticulous system. So, I would prefer it if you all- COSETTE! I SEE YOU! DO NOT FUCKING TOUCH THAT BOTTLE!

Cosette: Dude!

Mason: I am so sorry! That just slipped- I SWEAR TO GOD! I WILL PAINT THIS MANSION WITH YOUR GUTS IF YOU BREATHE NEAR THAT SAND AGAIN, KIM!

Kim: *Curls up on the floor and whimpers*

They easily find the right sand thanks to Mason's system and turn into ghosts

Meanwhile, Alya is given 10,000 essays to do as her punishment, which she takes in her stride as she loves writing, which greatly puzzles Petrov, who is also serving out his punishment. The two begin to bond, and when Petrov questions all the rules and detentions, he and Alya decide to investigate

Meanwhile, the Hall Moanitors, under Revanant's orders, head into DuPont and begin to seize the ghost students at the school, such as Jean and Austin Q.

Austin Q: *Clawing at the ground as he gets dragged away* NOOO! I burned too many bridges there! I can't go back! MOMMY!... Wait, what am I saying? FÉLICE! HELP ME!

Jean: *Getting dragged away* Cut the gas! You better go with some form of dignity!

Re-arriving at Haunted High, the ghouls meet Beck and Jacques, who help them control their ghost forms

Nathaniel: Wait... Now that I'm weightless, there's something I wanna do... CANNONBALL! *Dives into the pool and floats back up*

Having found no information about Revenant in the library, Alya and Petrov return to the main school hall and are horrified to find numerous DuPont students chained and being greeted to Haunted High by Revenant. 

Overhearing ghost students talk about how solids want to haunt them, Alya becomes outraged, loudly labeling the talk as stupid gossip, which alerts her friends

The Moanitors soon begin to give out chains for seemingly no reason at all. When this happens to Jacques, the group protects him, bringing them to Revenant's attention. She demands to know how they did so, and when they refuse, gives the Moanitors permission to shackle them

Petrov intervenes and takes them to a safe room only he knows of. Alya and Nathaniel admire the artwork, and Marinette comes to the realization that Jacques is the one who has been spying on him

Jacques: Can ya blame me? That bubbly personality, and the way you carry yourself- It's just too good not to copy.

Marinette: Trust me, dude. You could do so much better.

Denise: We will be having a talk about your self-worth when we get back home, young lady.

Alya, meanwhile, eavesdrops on Revenant's plan to get more students stuck at Haunted High and is discovered by one of the Hall Moanitors. Revenant questions her until Petrov appears and distracts her, giving Alya a chance to escape, although it means Petrov is heavily chained

Soon, the Moanitors capture the others, causing Alya to be angry at Petrov, believing he sold them out. However, Petrov reveals he stole the keys to the chains and transfers all the chains to himself

However, while Petrov had stolen something, so had Revenant, the item being the notebook Alya had been using to document their journey for her blog. From that, she discovers the Boogie Sand, and the Moanitors take off on Austin's yacht to find it. Now freed, the group pursues them on Beck's ship after rescuing the rest of the DuPont students

Angry at herself for making that mistake, Alya cools off in the library, only to find a book detailing that Revenant is the Red Lady of legend, as she sends the Hall Moanitors to do her work and never leaves the school

Jacques opens a portal, and they beat the Moanitors to DuPont, who begin to unleash Boogie Sand via confetti cannons on the students

Mason: WHY DO THEY HAVE MY FUCKING SAND?!

Austin T: That's not what the cannons are for!

Jean: Whoa. Who's the hottie in the bitchin cloak? Wouldn't mind necking that guy until I sweat all the grease outta my nest if you catch my drift.

Austin Q: ... WHAT?!

Beck boards the yacht, however, and manages to steal back the sand before they can refill the cannons. Back at Haunted High, Alya reveals that Revenant is the Red Lady. Taking this in her stride, Revenant seizes the key and sends all the chains flying at Alya  

Chased by the Moanitors, Jacques attempts to open a portal to send them back to the ghost world, and with the help of the others and their ghost powers, is successful. The yacht appears as the Red Lady sends her chains flying, and they entangle the yacht and Moanitors.

Finally free of her chains, Revenant opens a portal and attempts to enter the Monster World. But finds that she still can't leave as more chains automatically appear on her. Revenant looks to blame someone, but Alya tells her that she's done this to herself

Alya: Bitch, you really think giving unjust punishments, spreading rumors and lies, and throwing more chains at students is helping you?! Give me a fucking break!

Kim: Clearly, your chains were being generated by your own conscience as deep down, you know what you're doing is wrong. So, you continue to punish yourself for your crimes against your students. It's a long, probably centuries-long, unhealthy cycle, really.

Everyone Else: ...

Kim: What? I can't be smart sometimes?

Seeing the error of her ways, Revenant repents and takes back the chains, becoming her first act of kindness, and a single link on her many chains disappears.

Oh, and don't worry. Everyone soon figures out that Lila was behind the were-fleas rumor

Not only that, but the ghost students no longer see any reason to fear solids, and cross over to their world from time to time. And, a certain reaper finds himself being flirted with by a certain phantom

And, later that night, the Hall Moanitors sneak into the Boogie Mansion and play around with the Boogie Sand

Mason: *Walks in and sees their sand completely disorganized* ... You... Fucking... BASTARDS!

And that's how the Hall Moanitors died... Again.

COD AU Ideas

Yup, just a big list of AU ideas I've had rattlin' around in the ole brain. I may not ever get around to doing something with most of these. Some might be very thought out and others a simple sentence of a concept. These are all my concepts, so have the expectation that these will eventually become my fics.

I'm unsure right now if any of these will turn into actual works, cause goodness knows I already have too much on my plate right now, BUT for the most part, what I put here is/will be what to expect if I actually do something with them. In other words, these will serve as "fic descriptions" but just for fics that may never come to be.

The first one I didn't include a "fic" description just cause it's such a niche AU and I really want to inspire others to write their own stuff for it. So please let me know if you want my idea for the work!

Anyways, here's some brain rot!

Prison Break AU

SoapGhost AU where they're both in prison and plan an escape together. Based simply on the idea of "We escaped prison together, and oops we fell in love along the way". SO MUCH angst potential, so much comedy potential, so much potential!!!!

I'll definitely do something with it one day, but we don't have any of these bad boys (that I'm aware of) so please ask me/tag me if you want to write a Prison Break/Prison AU of our boys!!! Like, a Prison AU is a phenomenal idea why have I not heard of anything like this existing already???

Cryptid Hunters AU

AU in which Task Force 141 is actually an entire section of the modern military dedicated to controlling/monitoring the cryptid/monster populations of the world. Sometimes this means killing really rare/dangerous ones. Would contain PriceNik (subject to change into including Graves), SoapGhost, GazAlex.

It's the 141 boys just hunting cryptids with the help of Shadow Company (the North American version), Kate Laswell, and a few others. *honestly not my favorite AU, most likely to be forgotten about*

Cryptid Hunters AU but a bit to the left

Same concept as before but Ghost is a cryptid himself. Ghost still acts like a normal dude, and is a part of the 141 because they're actually super helpful for him, as a powerful cryptid-most-likely-ancient-deity. Helpful because they remove competition/keep most cryptids under check. But not helpful cause they stress him out, they want to find The Ghost and put "it" down cause it's apparently super dangerous.

He's a modern cryptid, meaning stories about his cryptid-self are recent (last like 20 years), which makes him that much more terrifying. He's actually one of the most notorious English cryptids; known for his abilities to phase in and out of shadows, creating pillars of solidified black sand, changing his size from massive to incredibly small, and causing incredibly vivid hallucinations of deceased loved ones. He earned the name Ghost cause of those hallucinations and how he often appears like the ghost of a person long deceased. Cue SoapGhost happening and lots of angst potential with that. Also so much comedy cause they're all like "Damn Ghost was spotted again" and he has to act surprised by what they find when they investigate the area. Soap openly defending the entity of Ghost by saying that he's "never killed anyone! 'Sides we should study him and learn about him! He's probably the only one of his kind, ya know!" Ghost falling in love with the strange little human that looks in awe at the massive structures Ghost makes with his crystalized black sand. Ghost intentionally making them more intricate as time goes on, letting himself get spotted in his full "demonic" form cause the excitement and borderline insane curiosity on Soap's face is always worth it. Now this?? This is good shit that I really want to write now

Soap is a Healer AU

Can't think of a good concise thing to call this AU so lemme explain! Soap who is part of a small percentage of people that possess unique abilities. Their designed to "heal souls" so to speak. People with lots of baggage in their lives often seek out the comfort of these "healers" because they can genuinely help them "heal" from all of this. Part of this means helping them move on from the loss of loved ones, like friends and family, or even pets. This means they can see ghosts of people that someone is still attached to. It's not the ghosts being attached to the people, it's the living not wanting to/struggling to move on. Healers can interact with a person's ghost(s) and vice versa, which is often how they help people move on.

Make it SoapGhost though where "Healers" shouldn't be in the military. There's been too many that have gone insane themselves from all the pain and misery they see/feel/experience on a daily basis. Even if they never see a battlefield, they're constantly surrounded by those who have and it's a miserable experience. Healers in these positions often take their own lives because "they couldn't save everyone" and it eventually became incredibly difficult for a Healer to get to where Soap is. But Soap's identity as a Healer is known by like maybe 3 people, Price not included. And he's not got the true "Healer" personality: he's not quite as empathetic and self-sacrificing as people like his mum, so he's doing just fine where he is.

Then he meets Ghost and suddenly all that changes. He suddenly meets someone he knows he needs to "heal" because damn. He sees the Riley family: Ghost's mum, Tommy and Beth, Joseph, and even Roach. Soap slowly winning Ghost over with the help of the Riley family. Soap slowly helping Ghost move on, helping to convince Ghost that Roach is gone, it's okay to love someone else, Ghost realizing Soap is "Healer" and getting upset that he's just "using" Ghost or whatever the fuck, Soap having to convince him that he fell in love with him, not that he's trying to heal him because it's what Soap is, but because he loves him. Soap saying he fell in love when he realized how many years had passed since the Riley family's passing, how unusual it is for people to have such strong "ghosts" after more than 5 years, saying he fell in love because it means Ghost is such a deeply caring, loving person. He fell in love because often times the "ghosts" in a person's life just continue on like nothing happened, and seeing the way they love Simon, seeing the way little Joseph just adores his uncle, everything about Simon Riley made Soap fall in love.

Undercover AU

This one's a GazAlex AU actually!

Literally what it sounds like. The two have to work together as an undercover duo, often times pretending to be a couple, as they help track down a big bad. Lot of flustered Alex caused by Gaz simply ~existing~. So many cliche tropes in this bad boy. The "there was only one bed", the "make out in an alley to avoid getting caught", the "pretending to be married".

Just a lot of Gaz being the coolest, most badass mf-er to exist and Alex trying desperately to keep things "professional" between them and failing miserably. Gaz being confident and using it to make Alex even more flustered cause "heh, he's kinda cute when he's all red and embarrassed". Gaz knowing full well the crisis he's giving Alex like 90% of the time, but not pushing Alex out of his comfort zone cause it's clear Alex likes him but doesn't want to compromise anything about their mission.

So much silly goofy potential with this, but also like some genuine good shit. Also Laswell and Price being older, "wiser" gays just laughing at the two dancing around each other.

Definitely going to be a fic once I finish one of my current WIPs. This either means posting all the YouTuber AU drabbles I have in my drafts or the last 4 chapters of my Left4Dead AU. Probably the latter...

Anyways, feel free to ask questions about these AUs! I'd love to get an excuse to share more of my brain rot!

[ennard-is-near]

As a fnaf movie enjoyer I would be so down to hear your thoughts on it! Like genuinely curious. I like hearing people's other perspectives

Of course! I probably should have clarified anyway. Just know that everything I say is lighthearted. I’m not mad at anyone who likes the movie, I think there’s some stuff about it that is fun, it just really didn’t do it for me personally. This is going to be a long one, so I’m sorry about that. Thank you for the ask!

Of course there are positives:

It looks great! The pizzeria, the animatronics, the sets and actors. Everything is really well done on a technical level. This extends to the casting being incredible. Matthew Lillard was a perfect choice for William Afton, he does insane guy pretending to be regular very well. Josh Hutcherson, Piper Rubio, Elizabeth Lail, the guy who played Doug, MATPAT??? All slay so hard. Everything like that about the movie is good.

Mike and Abby have a cute relationship. All the family stuff is actually really well done. I think it was a weird addition (I’ll touch on this later) but as it is it’s a well done part of the movie.

The little fan service bits are super fun. I shat my pants when Sparky the Dog came onscreen. That one guy being named Carl and getting his face eaten by the cupcake, the use of The Living Tombstone’s song at the end, MatPat. All these moments are great.

Dumb fun. I mean, it’s the FNaF movie. They build a fort! Freddy Fazbear is there! William Afton is there (sort of…)! Vanessa throws Mike’s Xanax or whatever into a lake! That’s hilarious! I enjoy the movie in this regard. As a FNaF fan who is occasionally willing to overlook everything I find disappointing about the movie, it’s fun.

However, it’s still not really a good movie.

I think this movie was pitched as being “For the fans” but aside from the little moments, like the ones I mentioned earlier, it isn’t really that. And it’s not clear enough for someone who has no idea what FNaF is to follow (that’s why critics were so confused). I don’t know how to Segway this into the next topic so here’s a few things that really bugged me from a fan perspective. 

The Aftons are not prominent or interesting at all. This should have been a slam dunk and it wasn’t. I might get in trouble for talking too much shit about Vanessa because people tend to love her for some reason, but she’s so boring. She doesn’t have that much personality or clear motivation and only shows up to deliver exposition or get stabbed. She has a lot of potential, maybe I could over analyze her potential one day, but as she stands she is not interesting. And don’t even get me started on William. He’s in like two scenes, doesn’t have any clear motivation at all and then just shows up at the end to get springlocked. I want to see him!!! Lemme see William! Why isn’t he more of a constant threat throughout the movie? Instead there’s a random child custody based subplot and the antagonist for most of the movie is some random character they made up and not William fucking Afton?? What’s his deal? It’s obviously not remnant because that doesn’t make sense based off his actions in the movie. I think they should have spent more time clarifying the motives for the movie Aftons, because as they stand they are completely different characters from their game counterparts (which is fine) but with no known motivations or personalities. Like you can’t expect me to apply their game motivations to this movie when they’re clearly super different.

The pizzeria isn’t prominent enough either. Mike doesn’t enough know what Freddy’s is despite probably being a child in the 80s. Garrett is kidnapped in the woods (Why did William Afton do that?) Mike spends more time zonked out and dreaming about Nebraska than he does thinking about Freddy Fazbear. It’s a bummer because it’s such a cool location, but the climax could have taken place almost anywhere and would have had the same effect with how few shits Mike gives about the Pizzeria. Which is a bummer because if Mike had just been a Charlie Emily type character then it would have been so easy. His dad was co-owner, his brother went missing there and now he has to go back and confront his demons. Have him freak out a little when the employment office guy tells him he can only get work at Freddy’s. Have him squint with vague recognition at “Steve Raglan” but not be able to put his finger on where he knows him from. Easy, doesn’t add too much and really brings the setting together.

The dream thing is kind of a stupid addition. It would be fine in a regular horror movie, but this is the FNaF movie? And it’s not a FNaF 4 reference because that’s not how FNaF 4 is. I get that they wanted to reference Dream Theory, which is a super fun reference but not enough to be the plot of the entire movie.

Not quite game compliant enough for a couple very specific things. I get that it’s a different media but like…Why can the kids appear in dreams? Why do they respond to drawings? Hey…why is Golden Freddy able to move around and stuff? That’s like his whole thing!

Some Random nitpicks: Wouldn’t it be more fun if the animatronics had beef with Vanessa? Isn’t the whole thing in the games that they don’t really like the kid of William Afton? The cupcake is too violent. The drawing thing is really stupid imo, especially because the kids seem creepy and violent even when they aren’t listening to William. I don’t think what Mike did to Garrett was bad enough idk, like I get that he feels responsible for his death, but he isn’t. Whereas Michael Afton was totally at fault for his brother’s death, Garrett was randomly picked up in the woods in Nebraska. The springlock scene was super lame, literally just period cramps. I get that it couldn’t be too intense because the movie was PG13 but maybe don’t make the movie PG13 if you can’t properly include one of the most iconic things in the games.

(These are the big ones. There’s a billion other things I could say but I think we’d be here all day)

But also, aside from being the FNaF movie…it’s just not a very good movie. The plot is all over the place. Nothing is explained very well. There’s a lot of exposition but not even about the things that matter. I don’t want to say that it wasn’t scary because I don’t personally get scared by horror movies but it wasn’t even intense. How are the animatronics a threat when they can be taken down with a taser? (I get that this is possibly a reference to 5 & 6 with the controlled shocks and such, but in those games they had to be like in a fixed spot and the taser was just a button, this can be taken places.) There are two antagonists and one of them is super random (if you don’t know the games), I’ve got a little facial blindness so if I didn’t know that Steve and William were the same based off prior knowledge I wouldn’t have put it together. It’s painfully slow at some points. The ghost children are underdeveloped. Certain arcs don’t go anywhere. It’s just all over the place.

And I think if it was a bad movie, that would be okay as long as it was a good FNaF movie. Or if it was a good movie, it would be okay for it to be a bad FNaF movie. But it’s not really great at being either thing, so (imo) it’s sort of just a terrible movie.

And it’s sad actually because I really wanted to love this movie. When I saw it in theaters, I left thinking it was a pretty solid movie, actually. Because I love FNaF and I was just happy to see it finally get the movie I’ve been waiting on since like 2015. But then I watched it 3 more times, and I started to realize that aside from the lore for the movie characters I made up in my own head and the fact that OMG Freddy Fazbear it wasn’t really a good movie or a good adaptation. I don’t hate it, though, I just think it’s a terrible movie (if that makes any sense). I’ll still go see the second one though, I’ll probably dress up too.

Final thoughts?

I think that a lot of the love for this movie comes, not from the source material, but from everything we made up afterwards. Headcanons and fan comics and fanfiction and the like. And that’s great! I’m glad people are taking a movie that I think is terrible, really I do. It just personally doesn’t do it for me, and that’s fine. Not every movie is for everyone, no movie could have been made that would satisfy every fan (The one they made just happens to not be for me. There’s a universe not too far from this one where I think the movie was great and you hate it.) And, hey, maybe the sequel will fix all the issues I have with it? Who knows. Only time (Dec 2025) will tell.

TLDR, I guess?

The movie has positives and it’s good fun, but there are so many flaws that make it both a bad movie and a disappointing FNaF adaptation. It’s great if you love it, I truly wish I did, but it just has too many flaws I personally can’t overlook.

Sorry this is an INSANE response to this ask, I have been looking for an excuse to type all this out for so long. Thank you for asking, thank you for reading, heart emoji heart emoji heart emoji.

[askdacast]

since I started liking/posting stuff related to the funny boomer Minecraft Youtubers playing an improv death game, I'm probably gonna post more opinion or lore posts occasionally when I have time; the Life Series is like one of my pet obsessions I circle back to every time a new season comes up like most people.

(to my friends/other followers who have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sorry)

I don't usually watch the main Hermitcraft/other SMP videos because they aren't my thing compared to the Life Series SMPs, but I do enjoy what the creators put out and they all deserve lots of praise for the hard work they've put in (especially after a lot of unwarranted criticism lately over Secret Life + Hermitcraft Season 9)

and now for a scorching hot take that will disappoint a lot of fans

I really like the Desert Duo...but only platonically, and lemme tell you "platonic" and "Hermitcraft/Life Series fanart" go together about as well as water and oil

I'm already not a fan of shipping in general as a personal taste, but when it comes to shipping real content creators, my discomfort is doubled. If you ship them I'm not gonna hate on you or ask you to stop, you're free to do as you like and I'm not the internet police.

That being said, Grian and Scar are super close friends iRL (if you include Mumbo, I consider them a "DO NOT SEPARATE" trio) and it's honestly really heartwarming to see them in other series just goofing around and even doing RL meet-ups (mostly Grian/Mumbo). To me I've always loved seeing really close friendships like these, and I will try to refrain from snarking about how people on the internet are really bad at distinguishing Philia love (friendship, really deep friendship) from Eros (romantic love).

The point is, I kinda feel uncomfortable when I see shipping of them cuz it feels like willfully misinterpreting the bond of actual real people. I know a lot of people say "separate the CCs from their personas in the series/lore," and I understand why, but the whole practice doesn't sit well with me. It almost feels like instead of creating something actually derivative of the real people, it's like smooching two dolls that just happen to be labelled "Grian" and "Scar". And as a writer myself for other things, I really like to pay respect to the subject matter I'm writing about, and that includes real people. And considering Grian iRL is a straight married man who's said before he doesn't really like the shipping (Scar to my knowledge has not given his opinion on it), it feels even more uncomfy to me when people try to ship him with one of his actual close best friends.

Yes in a way the real people are separate from the personas they put in Hermitcraft or the Life Series. They're like actors, doing it for the job and the sake of us the audience. (Considering I'm a big fan of Vtubers, I'm very acquainted with this paradox) Even still I can't help but always be cognizant of how they're still real people trying to put out their heart and soul to the public, and we enjoy what they do with deep respect for what they're doing. Shipping, especially if they've voiced their disapproval for it (even though they haven't banned it), feels just a tinge not respecting them as actual people, and feels a bit parasocial-y.

But again these are just my personal feelings, this is NOT a hate/call-out post to anyone in the fandom or demanding anyone to stop shipping the hermits. That being said you're likely to not get any out of me for the reasons I've stated above.

and a side note to talk about lore specifically, I just think platonic Desert Duo (for the Life Series specifically) is even more interesting than taking the romantic lens, because we can still have the angst and the doomed narrative and the unsaid trust between Grian and Scar, and still be able to celebrate each of them individually as respective players/creators, without having to make every achievement they make be about 'oooo because fate'

I haven't seen anyone yet posit the theory that (CHARACTER) Grian has distanced himself from (CHARACTER) Scar not because of just trauma but also that Grian thinks Scar is perfectly capable of holding on his own (shenanigans and carelessness aside). Like he's known Scar long enough to trust that he can survive on his own, and thinks that they should try to not hold each other back, and depending on who you ask this was either a really good or REALLY REALLY BAD CALL in Secret Life (because Scar did win on his own merits, but was left all alone)

TxT Personality Off Camera

(If anyone has any request lemme knowww, cause I'm out of ideas🥲)

.

.

.

Soobin

Cards pulled out: queen of wands, the empress, seven of cups and the fool

So even off camera he is helpful, he helps others, he's confident organizing a lot, a little hot tempered at times, but still quiet, not shy quiet more like confident and still quiet, he watches what to say and not to say. Ja and he does a lot off camera, accomplishing his stuff ect ect.

Ja very nurturing, creative, harmonious.

I think he has a lot of options and shit bit off camera even though he does a lot he procrastinates a lot and a little lazy, tbh I don't blame him, he takes on so many responsibilities he should give himself a break. He also is a little careless off camera, not in a bad way, but super sweet, calm and innocent energy, chill innocent energy

But overall he seems the same just a little more relaxed and chilling.

Love him.

.

Yeonjun

Cards pulled out: ace of wands, seven of pentacles, eight of swords and the fool card

Okay so tbh I feel like off camera he still is spontaneous and has his creative spark and likes a challenge, but then he stops himself and really thinks about it and is like, "is this a good idea?" He doubts himself a lot, he feels trapped a lot too. I'm guessing mostly because he's an idol and if he's caught outside doing normal things he might get into trouble. But in general off camera his doubts and fears come to him, shame mann🥺. But off camera he still is careless like Soobin, cuteee.

Anyways yarrr

.

.

.

.

.

Beomgyu

Cards pulled out: ace of swords reversed, four of pentacles, eight of cups reversed, seven of wands, two of swords reversed.

Okay damn beomgyu-

So uh, he gets into a lot of arguments off camera maybe with members, he gets frustrated a lot, he also gets his creative side blocked away, he has a lack of emotional maturity and he's very stingy, he holds onto people, things, money, ect ect.

He has a fear of commitment and a fear of moving on. I don't know why though, probably because of the past. Very ja hot headed but also detached at the same time and cold.

Very indecisive and lots of anxiety and fears that get to him. But he's holding onto it, he doesn't want to move away from it. But he still stands up for himself and his beliefs, very like controlling on a way.

Damn okay he has issues, but ay we have to have hope it will get better.

Taehyun

Cards pulled out: nine of pentacles, knight of cups reversed, ace of cups and the devil.

Oh damn.

So Taehyun is still independent off camera and whatever whatever, but he's a heartbreaker-, I think he has a lot of one night stands off camera. I think he tricks people tbh, like "hey you're cute I wanna date", but onky gets in bed with them. That's sad lmao.

He has a lot of issues with addictions maybe obsession on something. Him and Beomgyu seem a little similar ngl. Anyways he gives me a little bit of sad, drunk, dad vibes. A little violent ngl. Abusive in idk what way but ja. Thats just sad. Really sad. Idk

Damn.

Huening Kai

Cards pulled out:page of pentacles reversed, ten of cups reversed, knight of swords and four of cups.

Okay so his head isn't in the head place. He's a little foolish and rebellious in some type of way idk what way. He doesn't take advantage of good opportunities given to him. A little irresponsible. He's having a lot of family issues he's keeping a secret. He acts talkative and shit. Still rebellious and curious but not.

But he's not okay, he's depressed, but ja, that's sad. Idk probs cause of family issues and that he isn't looking at a situation in all types of ways and not his negative way. But ja shame man.

Aye his head really isn't in the right space and he's also trynna be a perfectionist

Damn these are depressing.

Hope you all enjoyed reading those, I didn't 🥲😭. Anyways byeeeee

This whole "Love" thing

Fuck it, here's incredibly personal-Headcanon Mikey (including some mentions of other brothers) one shot. I hope I won't make people mad xD

Summary: Mikey has thoughts about himself and is struggling with his identity.

Rating: T for a mention.

Tagging: @madammuffins @turtle-babe83 @thelaundrybitch @pheradream15 @dilucsflame33 (lemme know if anyone wanna be tagged/untagged in the future! Also plz do tag me in your stuff too!)

Mikey loved love. He loved the concept of it. The magical fairy tale sold by the TV and comic books.

He loved his family, pizza, New York. He loved being a hero, his skateboard and the ancient teddy bear he got from his dad when he was a kid.

But no matter how hard Mikey tried romantic love evaded him.

There were women, guys and nonbinary pals that he tried to have this love with. Sex was great, don't get him wrong. He enjoyed it and it made people he was with happy but he always could tell like something wasn't quite there. It led him to believe there was something wrong with him.

He had seen his brothers finding love. April eventually getting with Casey. He was happy for them all. He himself though was... confused.

"What is eating you my son?"

Mikey looked up startled from his own thoughts by Splinter's voice. "Me? Psh, nothing, all good, yeah," he replied a bit too quickly waving his arm dismissevely. "What makes you think that?"

"For starters, Michealangelo, you decided to join me for a game of go," the rat smiled at him. "You also have been considering your move for about 15 minutes now and didn't notice when I got up to bring myself some tea." Splinter gestured to the fresh cup next to him.

Mikey glanced there and sighed then looked at the board. He moved one piece, rather unmotivated.

"Sensei, is it possible for someone to... not feel love?" He finally asked.

Splinter stroked his chin before answering slowly. "The simple answer this this would be no, but that is a very complex question and cannot be answered with just one word." He hummed to himself. "In Ancient Greece they have named different kinds of love a person can experience - Storge the love of kinship and familiarity, Philia the platonic love, Eros the lustful love and pure, divine Agape. There are other of course. In the phylisophy of Confucianism there's love expressed by duty and action, focused more on the relationship rather than feelings. In oposition to it stood Mozi with his idea of universal love, equal among everyone."

Normally, with this lenght of lecture Mikey might have gotten distracted by his need to learn more about what he was feeling mixed with anxiety kept him listening. All this information was making him a little dizzy though.

"What does it mean?" He asked.

"It means my son that there is more to love than romance the shows on TV are trying to teach you," his father explained patiently. "You can feel one love without experiencing another. It doesn't make you any less worthy of love or incapable of it."

"What? Who said it was about me? I was, you know asking for a-" he stopped seeing the look on Splinter's face.

"I believe the Internet that Donatello and the rest of you enjoy so much, could have more modern outlook on this topic." He moved a piece on the board, giving Mikey an amused look.

"Right." Mikey nodded. "I better go then. Thanks, sensei."

He stood up and bowed before going further to the lair. What his dad said made him feel better. A little. He was still feeling a bit alone in his head with all that. He could check online like dad suggested but he wasn't sure just how much did Donnie monitor their phones.

He bit his lips. Fuck it. He'll deal with it later. He opened his phone and typed: "Is it normal to not feel love?" His thumb hesistated over the search icon, suddenly feeling a bit scared.

Deep breaths, Mikey, he told himself, then hit it.

Hours later he knew more. There was a name to it. Aromantic, that's how it was called. Leo was poly-bi, Raph was bi, Donnie was demi and he... he was Aromantic. Or aro for short. So this was okay. It really was okay.

Somehow the knowledge that there was name for it. That there were people like him out there, the scope of experiences varying of course but... He wasn't alone. It was such a relief he almost wanted to cry.

He was going to be okay.

N I C O L E

For the fic meme 😘

Ahhhh, you're so cute, I love you 😍😍😍😍 Thanks babe, excellent letter choices 😉

N: Any fic ideas brewing that you’d care to share?

Ohhh, so many. Too many. I tend to get a bolt of inspiration, start writing, and then get waylaid by another idea. But one I am making some inroads in at the moment is a weird little ✨time✨ fic, but I don't want to give anything away for that. We'll see if it works out LOL

I: How many fandoms have you written in?  Do you have a favorite?

*joints start creaking* back in my LJ days I wrote for Supernatural mostly, but d(r)abbled in a few others like True Blood. But yeah, three mostly – SPN early seasons, Gilmore Girls and Hellcheer, the latter two being the only ones on AO3. I got into writing later than most and also took a massive break. Hellcheer is my absolute 100% most favourite ever, in case no-one realised 🙃

C:  How did you come up with the title to [insert fic]?

I'm gonna just pick one, lemme see. "Those were days of roses" is a line from the Tom Waits song Martha, which I just adore – in it an elderly man contacts an old flame to see if she remembers him. The short little fic is just a chance meeting when Eddie and Chrissy are middle-aged and haven't seen each other in 20 years. I tried to imbue the sense of melancholy from the song into the fic, but gave them a little more hope, I think.

O: What are your thoughts on people writing fanfic of your fanfic?

Uhm, sure, go for it! I don't think anyone would, I don't think any of it would particularly lend itself to it, but inspiration strikes from anywhere!

L:  Which of your fanfics was the most emotionally challenging to write?

Most of my Hellcheer stuff is a bit of fun and not really emotionally taxing, I think. But my GG fic Not Time's Fool, maybe? I wrote the spaces between canon, so trying to see how Rory and Jess could move forward with those events took a bit of meditation on my part on why they would and how they could.

E: What character do you identify with most?  Is there a certain fic of yours that captures these qualities particularly well?

I don't know about identify, but there are some qualities in Eddie that feel like me. Or maybe that's just the Eddie I write – I probably write him lighter than canon tbh 😆 While I didn't stand on tables and act out so dramatically, I have always been someone who is a bit of a clown, who has a sarcastic comment or dumbass quip. Which fic shows that best? Fucked if I know. Maybe my New Girl fic, or Mary Jane?

(Also the sense of bottled up rage, or rage that simmers under the surface that Eddie has in some canon scenes. That's me too LMFAO)

Thanks for the ask, my love! If anyone else wants to read more waffle like this, check out the ask meme!

THREE YEARS OF WRITING 🧁 (or close enough!)

Lemme start by saying I am tired. One hater takes enough out of me, I have ADD hypersensitivity, so yeah, still kinda recovering!

I wanted to make this something super happy! And actually on time, but literally, one day later, today some asshole wants to show up in my tumblr inbox and complain? And it was about the old me! So I'm doing it early! I’m here to celebrate my growth! Fuck them! Lol 🖕🎉

They were basically, oh, you’re not Q! You’ve fallen off! No, I’m not! Q is dead! And Q was never truly entirely me! I will always be grateful if she hadn’t taken the first step, I wouldn’t be here, but Q got scared even writing the simple niche of Gon carrying Ki more than once! I still remember that authors note Q wrote apologizing! I wanna laugh at her! Like she owed anyone anything! It was like her fourth fic, I think.

I get her, part of her still lies in me! Like I’m sorry to that person you’re so insecure and pathetic that someone changing and growing into a confident person who writes what she totally likes full on indulgence! Bothers you! She was always in there okie! She was just scared! 

Creating Qutie was the first step. And I’m proud of her and how far she’s come! I don’t care anymore if everyone hates me! I know most probs do! I am confident and happy about my presence here! And love that I can speak up without fearing anymore! Realizing I don’t fit! Or belong with the fandom was the best thing that ever happened to me! I don’t forgive the og hater/stalker and made me poof Q, but I am actually thankful to them. 

My third year anniversary of writing is coming up on Sept, 4! 

And I probs would’ve made a speech about how happy I am and how far I’ve come then too! So consider this that! Except it probs would’ve been 50 tags cuz that’s my style lol 😚

No matter what anyone says I am proud of me!

I love my writing, and I love my fics! It really just is the simple concept of imagining finding an author you like! And then there are tons of works ready for you to read! Even if they're small thingies like mine! I was into GK back in 2012, but I was young and there wasn't any GK really, and plus after CAA I was just depressed there was nothing there for me. So I left! And then 2020 of June I fell back into Gonki!

I watched tons of reactors and got back in, but I couldn't find anything that was my taste fic wise, so I just took a leap of fate, I found maybe one fic of Gon carrying Ki maybe one and billions that I did not like! So I decided to do it for me!

I wanna be with Gonkillu forever! I don't wanna imagine a world where I leave again! But on the chance it ever does happen? Look what I've done for me! I've become that author I would like with tons of fics all ready to read! For me! 90+ will be there if it does happen.

And nothing pleases me more! I do reread my fics as is! But the idea of knowing me of the future should something ever happen has that... it's the best feeling!

And no one will take that from me! When I couldn't find anything I wanted in 2020 I didn't go to writers and go WAHHH WAHH WAHHH DO WHAT I WANT I took action. So no loser anon is gonna stop me. If you liked the old me become her, but I like the new current me more! Who goes full in no fear!

I do wish there was a GK world and I will say stuff like that! Cuz I do wish there was! But I've never gone to a writer and been like dooo this for meee, like!

I put my money where my mouth is and am creating the GK world I want for myself!

Thank you, me! For the three years of writing! Here's to many more!

I’m on a little teeny tiny island by myself! I need a cute flag 🥺 IT HAS TO BE PINK OMG WITH GON CARRYING KI AND KI WEARING A CUTE PINK DRESS AND LITTLE BUNNY EARS 🥺 he’s a little bunny 🐰 

[dynjay]

Hey, I read the tags on a post and was wondering... what artifacts make Lily and PV's dynamic toxic? If it's about the love potion/love letter there is no confirmation that was something either of them did... there are a lot of artifacts in the museum that are just like. General stuff from the magic school before it fell-- most of the artifacts related to Lily and PV and the ancients specifically are in the history section.

For those of you who don't really care about Cookie Run Kingdom, have a Read More bc this might be a little lengthy lol

(also, purelily shippers, you guys might wanna avoid reading this one)

So I wanna preface this with a few things:

1.) I haven't finished everything the game has to offer yet! I went through the Tower of Sweet Chaos' story, but I'm actually stuck on Raspberry Cookie in 11-27, so depending on what happens, my opinion could change and I could just look like a fool here lmao

2.) In those tags, current dynamic = Pure Vanilla and Dark Enchantress (who's also White Lily)'s dynamic I don't dislike the purelily ship or look down on anyone who does. I actually really fascinated by their history, haha. But personally, my heart's not set on shipping them in their current state because uhh... as far as I know, Dark Enchantress is currently trying to kill Pure Vanilla atm.

That said, lemme spill some of my thoughts on the relics here bc I've actually been wanting to talk about them since I discovered them:

You're right in that there's no concrete evidence that these relics were theirs. No one knows for sure except the writers themselves. But on the flipside, there's also a concerning amount of detail that suggests it being a very real possibility that I haven't seen debunked yet.

One of the biggest concerns is how the Nameless Transcript is within this set of relics. It's titled as "Nameless", but it's strongly hinted that it's White Lily's, which makes you wonder if this set of relics is partially themed after her.

The other relic within the set that's also worth noting is the Lost Portrait. It's not as big of a concern as the Nameless Transcript, but it does solidify that at least several items in this set are themed after White Lily, since this specific portrait was a pivotal item in her backstory.

That aside, let's talk about the relics in question themselves, because those two have some interesting things going on as well.

Starting with Someone's Love Letter, this relic honestly feels like a direct parallel to Pure Vanilla's letter.

Thematically, this makes sense; the set of relics this letter's in is clearly themed after Pure Vanilla while the Love Letter's relic set is hinted to be themed after White Lily, and romantically or not, these two really loved each other at one point in their lives, friends or otherwise. But the thing is, Pure Vanilla always had a strong sense of morals, so it's highly doubtful he wrote the love letter, themes aside.

White Lily, on the other hand, was always shown to have good intentions, but highly questionable morals. She doesn't mind violating any rule she has to to get what she wants, as long as the end justifies the means (i.e sneaking into several forbidden areas of the academy, suggesting taking a piece of the 1st headmaster's soul, etc.).

But the idea of her making a love potion just to get Pure Vanilla's affection sounds way too sinister for White Lily, because despite all the damages she's caused, her intentions are still shown to be good-natured. Also, Devsis makes a conscious effort to make sure the relics match whatever subject they want to associate it with, and the love potion's aesthetic is vastly different from White Lily's design.

But remember that White Lily is also Dark Enchantress. The Tower of Sweet Chaos' story showed that Dark Enchantress isn't just White Lily possessed, brainwashed, or anything like that. She IS Dark Enchantress. Once she was out of the oven, she made a conscious decision to be who she wanted to be, which means the side of her that's Dark Enchantress has always existed within her, even back when she was White Lily. And what does Dark Enchantress look like?

Colors: Check Heart theme: Check (staff) Love theme: Check (Dark "Enchantress")

If this is all true, does it paint a real ugly picture regarding White Lily and Pure Vanilla's relationship? Yeah. Do I actually believe White Lily would actually do something like this though? Also yes. Depending on what the reason is and given her past actions, I don't think it'd be above her at this point.

I will say though; her motivations are usually well-intended, so it doesn't feel right to assume she'd do something like this out of pure whim. I don't know what that motivation is, but I'd like to believe that White Lily wouldn't do this anything like this without a good reason. My personal theory is that she either bought or made the potion herself, but not for sinister reasons.

Of course, I could be wrong about everything and those relics could really belong to some rando cookies lol. But when I say I can't bring myself to ship them much, this is kinda why :')

[clown-cars-blog]

In this page, a lot of alters will post stuff important to them, whether that be triggering or non triggering material. It is not our responsibility to handle you when you are triggered by our own content. We will have warnings but if you go past them, then that’s on you.

In our system, we have five hosts. Here’s some information about them!

Apollo

Apollo is our most proper hostess and one of the most calm people in our system. She has a schedule and hates when it’s disrupted (probably the autism). She loves anything dealing with marine and philosophy.

Apollo hates the taste of coffee and prefers tea over anything. The most times she will front if it is cool out, if we’re in a library or going to one, if it rains and if we are organizing notes for class

I have no idea if she would post on here, but if she does, you will know if she writes something. Her grammar is proper, like the lady she is.

By(Bee)/Haven

One of our newest hosts in the system, By is learning how to live properly without restrictions on food. They will probably post about that a lot since that’s how they cope effectively. He is very anxious and texting people will increase that, so don’t be disappointed if he leaves you on read.

He is very good at math, especially graphing which if anyone knows us in real life, we suck balls at that. He also loves music and will listen to practically anything that doesn’t make his ears bleed. They also love books, specifically rom coms.

They hate being lost anywhere.

Bec

My turn. Alright, my name is Bec and I used to be the youngest host until Haven came along. I don’t mind it at all since I get to help them learn and cox them out of their shell. Unlike Apollo, I love coffee with my whole being and I must have an iced coffee three times per week.

Somethings that I like are performances, DND, drawing, instruments and writing in general. I write a lot online and in real life. I hold onto the dream of writing for thousands of people online, like a fanfiction, but nothing media related really sticks with me so much that I could. I welcome recommendations.

I hate the feeling of being lonely, makes me feel all messed up inside, and avocados. It’s a texture thing for me and I’d rather eat guacamole, which seems like more people have problems with.

Kaleb

This boy, lemme tell you, is the worst study partner ever. She gets so distracted easily and it’s not even funny how many times they made me snort while I was doing work or even Apollo. They were one of the first hosts that came when the old host went into dormancy, so he knows the way around.

Kaleb would die for anything egg related like a sandwich or an omelette. He is an egg fiend and I don’t know what to do anymore about that. He likes to take pictures, stream games, play guitar and draw.

She does hate sitting in the complete dark and out AFAB body due to dysphoric reasons.

Maxwell

You know how I said Kaleb is distracting? This MF is ten times worse. They cannot focus long enough on anything unless they get it immediately and they’re even more of a goofball than Kaleb or any other alter I know.

They love chips more than all of us (we are all dating. Polyamorous :>) and doesn’t discriminate on flavor. I think their favorite is honey bbq, so slide xir some. They also like baking shows, dancing, gaming and anime.

What gets on their nerves is amber alerts because of sounds, grocery stores and minecraft droppers.

The end

bye

-Bec
