WASH YOUR WORRIES AWAY

pairing: opla!buggy the clown x reader

word count: 2.8k

warnings: 18+, cursing, oral (male receiving), p in v, honestly this one is pretty tame but it's cute <3

a/n: hi hi hi! im back with my bullshit! no but this one is really fucking sweet (maybe a tad cheesy at the end). i had the idea for a while so i was really happy to see that he people of tumblr voted for this choice on the poll.

i started this being super naughty with sanji and zoro and now look at me being a doll with buggy and mihawk (which is strange cause they can easily be the kinkiest mfs).

so i think im gonna write another oneshot for buggy in the near future. maybe one for nami and then i'm gonna go back and write the third part for the sanji x reader x zoro. that's gonna be real fucking interesting. it'll be my first time writing a threesome so wish me luck!

thank you guys for reading and putting up with my wild imagination!!

(as always my psa that this is solely based on the live action)

Buggy the Clown stomps into the Jolly Roger angrily. His crew is nowhere to be found on the empty deck. He expected them to be awake, running around, making plans to get their Captain back. Instead, they are snoozing in the rooms of his ship, shielding themselves from the cold ocean breeze.

Buggy mutters insults towards his freaks under his breath. The lot of them should freeze for all he cares. The fishmen kidnapped him, and all they're doing is getting their fucking beauty sleep. He's starting to believe he wasn't missed.

He beelines to the Captain's quarters, where he finds a pretty sight welcoming him. You're on his side of the bed, peacefully asleep. Buggy intentionally slams the door behind him, rudely waking you up from your slumber.

You jump at the bang and sit up, looking alarmed at the intrusion. "Buggy!" You gasp, relieved to see him, "You're back!"

You and the freaks have been working nonstop on keeping the ship afloat and searching for its Captain. You've barely rested in weeks, tracking down Arlong and his crew.

Today, you finally found the location of Arlong Park and set sail. You stopped an island away to let the freaks rest before marching into battle. They will need it to beat the fishmen or at least make enough damage to get Buggy out.

"No thanks to you and my useless crew," Buggy bites, throwing his coat to the side dramatically. At least his theatrics were not hurt while he was away.

You stand from the bed and approach him softly. He's like a wounded animal that might bolt at any second.

"That's not fair. You know we were on our way," you softly say, feeling bad about his harsh tone. Buggy loves to tease you and push your buttons, but it's not often he's genuinely angry at you.

"Taking your sweet ass time, it seems," he cries out, gesturing at the door as if referring to his sleeping crew.

You let it go and decide not to continue arguing. He's physically and emotionally wounded. Not to mention his ego. You stand centimeters away and grab his gloved hand, "Let me make it up to you, Bugs."

Being this close, you can assess his appearance closely. His makeup is smeared more than usual; it's faded on some parts as his blue stubble breaks through the white face paint, and his eyes look defeated.

"Yeah, make it up to me. Let's see what you come up with," he says sarcastically, letting your hand fall from his grasp. His words might drip with sarcasm, but they are a plea for help in disguise. So you pay him no mind, knowing that by the end of the night, you'll have him like putty in your hands. Only to rebuild him back into the Buggy the Clown you know and love and the Marines fear.

"I'll be right back." You tell him, leaving the room momentarily. You return minutes later with a freak who pushes a wooden tub behind you with steaming water. The freak barely spares a glance at Buggy, scared that the clown might lash out at him.

Closing the door once he leaves, you prepare the water with oils and fragrances. Buggy watches from afar, sitting on the wooden chair he has in his room. He's used to hunching on it for hours, examining his maps, and executing master plans for the next big adventure. He likes looking over his shoulder to watch you sleep peacefully as insomnia grabs hold of him. It brings him peace.

"Come 'ere, Bugs," you say, grabbing his hand to help him up. Buggy grumbles in protest despite looking forward to the bath. "Let me take care of you," you whisper, looking up at him. You place your hand on his chest in comfort.

"I don't need you to take care of me. I'm a grown ass man," Buggy gruffs out, avoiding your gaze. It's not like he's felt like a man in the past few weeks as he's been carried around in a sac as a mere head while his body was beaten constantly by the fishmen. It was degrading and made him feel extremely weak.

You roll your eyes at him but play along, "You're right. You are a grown, strong man. Will you indulge me, though? It'll make me feel better seeing you're okay."

Buggy finally meets your eyes and nods, "For you."

There's no reason for him to say no. You're the person that knows him best in this world. You probably know what he's feeling without him telling you in the first place. Still, he acts difficult because he's bratty like that and because sometimes he has a hard time understanding you're there for him no matter what, with no ulterior motive.

You softly smile at him and pat his chest. Your hands trail up to the scarf tied around his neck, and your fingers swiftly undo the knot. You throw it on the bed as you continue down his chest, reaching the buttons of his vest.

Buggy watches you closely as you concentrate on undoing the buttons. Your touch never lifts from his skin for more than a second, granting him the pleasure of feeling your soothing touch after many weeks.

The vest falls on the floor as you push it back over his shoulders. Fingertips tickle his arm as you reach his hand to take off one of his gloves. Your eyes timidly meet his as you plant a small kiss on his palm.

Before he met you, he never thought such a minuscule action could mean so much. Now, he craves it often. It's your way of saying 'I love you,' seeing as Buggy is not good with words. You give him options to show his love, and that's priceless to him.

Your curious eyes have already taken in all his bruises and minor cuts. There's no doubt Arlong's men had been beating him up. You don't bring them up, knowing Buggy will close up again. He'll talk when he's ready.

You kneel on the floor, helping him off his boots, and quickly after, you get rid of his pants, too. You guide a butt-naked Buggy to the tub, ordering him to get in.

"Ohh," Buggy bites back a moan as the warm water soothes his aching muscles. The smell of eucalyptus wafts up to his nose. It's his favorite scent because it's the one you used when you met.

"Would you like me to wash your hair?" You ask him, untying the knot on his head scarf.

"You said you were gonna take care of me. Do whatever you want, sweet cheeks," he knows you've already made your decision, as his hair is already down before he can respond. You beam at the nickname, knowing your Buggy is softening up.

His bright blue hair falls down his back and into the water. Grabbing a jug, you fill it with water and softly tell Buggy to tilt his head back. The water cascades down his head, wetting his hair and turning it a beautiful deep teal.

Buggy opens his eyes and sees your calm expression as you concentrate on not getting any water on his face. A small fraction of his anger chips away, seeing how much you care for him. Only you'd know he hates the feeling of water pouring down his face.

You grab oils from your selection and brush them through his hair, ridding him of any sand and grime stuck in it. Buggy involuntarily closes his eyes as you massage his scalp with the tip of your fingers. A mixture of a sigh and moan falls from his lips.

When his hair is clean and untangled, you grab the bar of soap and a sponge to clean his body. Your eyes are attentive to any bruise or cut, careful not to hurt him any more than he is.

You notice his neck is quite stiff as you spread the soap suds across his back, so you spend some time massaging the area. You dig your thumbs into the tension knots, causing Buggy to become more vocal, groaning and moaning whenever you hit a spot that needs extra care.

Moving to kneel beside the tub, you wash his chest and stomach. Buggy simply stares as you focus on getting every speck of dirt off of him. Any other day, he'd be making you laugh and throwing inappropriate jokes, but the time didn't seem right to him. So, he kept quiet and observed how you tried to hide your grimaces whenever you encountered a nasty bruise.

You massage his knees when you get to his legs because you know they hurt. Buggy might not complain about any pain, but you know the chop chop fruit makes his joints ache when he uses his abilities.

As the dirt is washed away from his body, so does his anger. He's sure that by the end of the bath, he won't be any better than a harmless puppy, and that's all you wanted. Buggy needs to let go of the anger he harbors inside so he can come back stronger than ever and lead the crew to its next adventure, whatever that may be.

You leave his face for last. You're the only person on earth who has the honor and pleasure of cleaning his face free of its makeup. Carefully, you wipe away with a rag the grease paint covering his handsome face. There's layer upon layer of paint staining his skin. A splash of blue over his eyes, red on the corner of his lips, white on his hairline. You wipe away each layer until you're able to see your Buggy. Not Buggy the Clown.

"There you are," you smile, cupping his face. Buggy's hand comes up to encase yours to simply kiss your palm. Beautiful blue eyes stare back at you shyly. Without all the makeup, he tends to feel more self-conscious about his nose.

"You know I was coming for you, right?" You ask him to make it clear you never intended to abandon him.

"I know, Princess," he says, leaning further into your touch. Your thumb brushes over his stubble before you pull back your hand. A soft protest leaves him.

"Let's get you out," you murmur, helping him out of the bath. You tell him to stay where he is as you fetch the towel.

Once you start something, you have to finish it. With the same love and care, you dry Buggy's body, kissing his bruises as you go along. You get on your knees to dry his legs as well.

It's a very intimate position you're in. Buggy's manhood is right in front of your face. He's looking down with hooded eyes, waiting for your next move. He'll go as far as you want to go tonight.

Having him away for so long, you can't resist kissing around his pubic bone. You avoid touching his cock for now as you tease him, looking up at him innocently.

His length begins to harden as you keep brushing your lips all around his thighs and pubic area, but not where he needs to feel you most. You notice his fists clenching as he holds back from grabbing your head and placing it exactly where he wants.

Finally, your lips kiss his length, all the way from the base to the tip. That alone gets all of his blood to surge down to his cock. You continue this torturous pace for too long, teasing the tip of his cock with your tongue.

"Fuck, Princess," Buggy groans, looking into your eyes.

He's tired. He's been away for weeks. Despite wanting to fall on his bed and die for the next ten hours, his need to have you wins out. So, with the energy boost you gave him with the bath, he grabs your arm and pulls you up.

There will be time for you to suck his cock another time. Now, he needs to feel you as close as humanly possible. Buggy grabs your face and presses his lips against yours.

He kisses you deeply and sloppily, tasting your minty lip balm. He hunches over you as you lean back, overwhelmed by the sudden display of affection. Kissing him back just as fiercely as your arms wrap around his sides, pulling yourself closer.

His hand leaves your cheek to tug on the strings of your night dress and push it off your shoulders. The falling fabric tickles your skin as you're left just as exposed as he is.

Buggy grips your breasts, your sides, your thighs, and your ass. All to feel you so fucking close to him. He doesn't care if he's suffocated by you. After weeks of being tortured, all he wants is to feel your soft, caring touch.

You push Buggy back into the bed, and you tumble down with him as his hold on you is unrelenting. You won't be leaving his side tonight. Buggy sits in the center of the bed with you on his lap, grinding against his length.

"Fucking adore you," Buggy breathes, digging his head on your shoulder to leave kisses there, "and the way you take care of me."

"I'll always take care of you, Buggy," you tell him, cupping his jaw so you can look into his eyes, "You're mine. I gotta take care of what's mine, okay?"

A whine comes out of him as he nods at your words. He kisses your palm again, telling you everything you need to know. Buggy leans his forehead against yours. Something he had to get used to at the beginning due to the fact your noses also touch, but right now, it's the farthest thing on his mind. Having you close is his number one priority.

You line his cock with your entrance and slowly sink into it. You watch Buggy's face contort into one of pleasure as his mouth slightly gapes and his eyebrows furrow. You start bouncing softly, being mindful to be gentle with his aching body. Meanwhile, he grabs into your hips, helping you along, his fingers digging into you, afraid this is all a dream, and you'll go away.

There's no way this is a dream. You feel too warm and tight around him for it not to be real.

Buggy's arms encase your body as he pulls you flush against him. Chest to chest. Stomach to stomach. It doesn't matter that it makes it harder for you to move on top of him. Buggy drags his short nails down your back, relishing the heat of your skin. It's not with the intent to hurt but to feel you close.

You keep your fingers tangled in his hair, pulling at the roots just how he likes it. You've resorted to grinding on his lap, as that's how much movement he allows you. His eyes bore into yours, depicting so many emotions he can't begin to comprehend, much less talk about. But it's enough for the two of you.

You peck his lips and ask, "You doing okay?"

Buggy nods and whispers, "I'm doing fucking perfect." He steals a kiss and another and another. Each kiss you let him steal gets progressively longer until he has his tongue in your mouth, tasting you.

The grind of your hips is enough to bring him to the edge. With a warning to your lips, Buggy spills inside of you. He revels in the level of closeness that brings. You play with his hair as he rests his head on your chest, catching his breath.

You need not say anything. It's a moment of vulnerability, and you let him have it. Buggy is resetting and pulling himself together back to the person he usually is.

That night, you sleep naked with Buggy basically on top of you. His head rests on your chest as he falls asleep listening to your heartbeat, and you hold him all throughout the night.

Except, when you wake up, he's gone. As your senses fully wake up, you notice the boat rocking. You've already set sail. Quickly, you get ready and go out onto the deck.

"About time you woke up, Sweet Cheeks!" Buggy yells from the helm, standing by the ship's wheel. The sun beams on Buggy's face, the familiar makeup freshly painted on his face. "It's time to get to work. I have some pirates to deal with."

"Yes, Captain!" You say, which earns you a sneaky wink from Buggy. With a soft laugh, you shake your head and walk through the ship to help the freaks with whatever they might need.

With you by his side, there is nothing Buggy can't overcome.

One Piece Live Action Actors Ideal types

(Sorry yall I've been busy so a little inactive, but after I fix my schedule I will answer all the other requested readings on the kpop idols)

~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆☆~☆~☆~☆☆~~☆~☆~☆~~~☆~

Inaki Godoy (Luffy)

Cards pulled out: Five of pentacles reversed, eight of cups reversed, four of pentacles reversed, the devil reversed, nine of pentacles back of the deck

So I pulled cards once but then I didn't like how they came out and it was really confusing to interpret but it seems like some cards just want to come out

So this what im getting:

He definitely likes someone who likes to improve their financial situation. Someone who's stable, got their shit together. Very independent and secure. Someone who makes him feel welcomed in a way. He might like that either seeing them healing from their abandonment issues, or he likes when they're not completely yk for commitment, like scared of commitment. Someone who is very open and generous, but someone as I said who's independent and very like green vibes. Like green and sweet. Someone's who's been in it for the rough but like reclaiming their control and becoming independent.

.

.

.

Jacob Gibson (Ussop)

Cards pulled out:Strength, king of wands, five of pentacles, the devil, page of cups

He likes someone who's very brave and Courageous, confident and friendly. Just like a "I am my own person" type of person. Someone who lives up to their own expectations and is just a funny, honest and just has a way with their words type of person. He wants someone who knows how it feel to be left out in the cold but then to become independent and detached from the world. He digs that. Someone very cheerful and optimistic like sassy but cute, someone sensible and emotionally mature. Very Youthful and a dreamer and actually works on those dreams.

.

.

.

Emily Rudd(Nami)

Cards pulled out: Six of pentacles, the hierophant reversed, nine of cups, ace of swords, knight of pentacles back of the deck

Someone who is very generous and kind, but also someone who challenges normal traditions, someone whi doesn't mind or believes in gender roles reversed. I saw a house husband lmao. Someone who's very optimistic and abundant. A person who has a good intellectual ability. Someone who can stimulate her mind and other, a person who believes in justice. Someone who can concentrate well and see things from outside the box. Someone who's like different from others but "far ahead in life" someone who can provide stability and materialistic things and bring in things and be able to build with her on a mental level.

.

.

.

Taz Skylar(Sanji)

Cards pulled out: Ten of swords, justice, chariot, the lovers, three of wands

Someone who has been betrayed or backstabbed before and just really ket down, causing that person to really believe in justice or karmic things. Someone he rebuild themselves and are now successful in life and victorious and those hoes can't even touch em. He wants someone where it can feel romantic and it feels like they're soulmates yk? Someone who he gad shared values with. Might like someone who travels a lot or a foreigner. He is attracted to someone who believes in themselves and someone who likes to experience life.

.

.

Okayy hope yall enjoyed the readings. I didn't do all the casts just bc I don't think you guys all wanted to see all the actors. I didn't to Mackenyu cause he has a wife if anyone was wondering.

But ja I will now continue with the kpop readings I need to finish.

[jasper-tarot-reader]

Hello!

Im also aro/ace happy to see another one in the wild hehe! Thank you for opening up your readings for free, but I imagine you must be getting a large influx so please take your time to getting to this or not at all!

Here we go: Alyssa, she/her

Question: Which direction is my Profesional life heading?

So for some context this year has just overall been a whole tower moment ngl, amd I've been vastly unemployed for a hot uncomfortable second. I am still trying to return to college and finish my degree but because we live in a society I must pay bills so I have a job now. I will say! It's been going good finally as I'm now employed as a deaf interpreter and I'm really loving my job as I'm feeling like I'm making a difference in children lives. However my goals are still aligned with eventually graduating college and going to grad school to be a researcher, my true dream. There's been so many difficulties, but I'm not ready to give up on it either. And logically I know I have my whole life to figure this out, but I feel I have been drifted from so many ports its hard to know where I'm supposed to dock if that makes sense?

Anyways, any guidance you have would be very helpful and I appreciate you taking the time to read this! Thank you :D

Hell yeah, aspec squad! And I get that feeling, Alyssa, I recently had a wild upset of my own when it came to my professional stuff. So with that in mind, your deck for today is The Dungeons & Dragons Tarot Deck, who had given you the Page of Charisma.

Something has torn down the rope bridge that spans the chasm. The villagers need help rebuilding it.

Getting into action and rekindling your sense of adventure starts with the small stuff and with realizing what isn't working. In this deck, the Minor Arcana have been renamed to four of the six major D&D stats, and Charisma denotes your confidence, eloquence, and ability to influence the material world with your energy. A Page is above the numbered cards in a suit, but at the bottom of the court - so while you're really good at what you're doing, you still have plenty of growth to do.

And looking at the card itself, our adventurer has a tiger friend, which means that you're not alone when it comes to your professional life - you have coworkers, friends, and fellow students you can talk to on your level, and you can ask for help from those who are in teaching or guiding positions above you. The adventurer and their tiger are going through a door into a tree together. A tree symbolizes growth, yet the stability of years of experience, while a door symbolizes stepping through a threshold and to new opportunities, whether it's the next step in your chosen path or onto a new path entirely.

So honestly, you said it yourself! You've got your whole life to figure things out, but if you want a little help, start by looking at a general breakdown of your day, week, or month. What's taking up the most time? How can you better adapt your schedule to fit your own needs? Who can you ask for help, either with rearranging that schedule or with smaller tasks within it?

You've got plenty of time, and things are overall looking really good for ya. You've just gotta trust the process on some parts.

I hope this reading helps, Alyssa! If you feel so inclined, please feel free to send feedback in my ask box and/or reblog my new reading guidelines!

[clatterbane]

Finally got this old Aspire Mulus up and running again last night, after I found it among miscellaneous shit in a moving box. I don't much cosmetically like the brown in that swirl pattern on the front panel, but it is a great little device.

For now, I just have it going with one of the tanks that takes the premade Tigon coils (also stashed in the same bag). But, the rebuildable deck one was in there too. That was actually one of the first rebuildables I picked up a few years back. Good thing I did find that too, because it's relatively old enough at this point that the only replacement I could find within the EU Customs Union was shipping from Ireland. (And with the way Customs works here IME, you really do hope you can find something to order from inside the EU. In the UK before Brexit, it was a real crapshoot but they would only occasionally hold you up on fees. Here, it's the vast majority of the time IME.)

I wasn't even sure where my Coil Master kit was hiding, so yeah premade was looking pretty good last night. I'm only running this coil at just under 25W, so the single battery should last a while.

At any rate, I had forgotten just how much I liked the Mulus. And those 0.4 ohm Tigon coils. That was one of the fairly early Billet Box knockoff AIOs, but Aspire did an excellent job on it.

So yeah, tonight is pretty much peak Generic Middle-Aged Nerd. Messing around with my Waydroid shit, while getting half-crocked on homebrew with my "keep me off smoking" vape in hand. I have also checked a couple of things on Reddit within the past few hours. May as well own all of it.

CARPET AIRLINES!!! (https://www.instagram.com/carpet___airlines/)

okay, okay, I loved playing for this party!!!! so I'll have a lot to remember!

some (very long) reflections on some topics:

THE MUSIC / THE SET

-I've been wanting for a long while to get more into gear and now I feel like i'm arriving at that place, or im on the journey towards it. this set was the most out-of-the-box (out of DAW) I've been able to get so far. the only thing that was going through abelton was my vocals and the instrumentals for the few tracks I did only vocals live for. I got an elektron rhythm this winter, and spent a few weeks rabbit-hole deep in spread sheets to organize all my samples and rebuild DAW-based tracks into the rhythm. I learned so soooo much during this time and I must say, one of the reasons im so dedicated to music is how nerdy I get to be with it. ngl I love taking notes, reading manuals, and watching lessons online, etc. Josh Cowgirl (https://www.instagram.com/jcow____/) came round to mine to show me some sneaky tricks with the rhythm and explain how he uses it in his live sets. giiiiant shout out and tysm to him for taking the time to do that!

-regarding actually doing the live set... I had so much more fun with this set/the performance than previous ones because I actually go to play more of the music live, rather than having 30 sec chunks to press play between in a DAW. the elektron rhythm is my new bestie fr! even muting drums in and out, so simple, SO much fun.

-after my set I realized, in a final click kinda way, that there's a weird sense of dysphoria I always get after playing, where I realize that a) everyone on the other side of the decks had a different experience at the set than I did, because they listened while I played, and b) I'll never get to experience a set of mine from that outsiders perspective. which is kinda weird and hard to wrap my head around. when people ask me how my set went, im like idk, ask the people who were there!

-given the last reflection, it's clear that feedback is suuuper important to me to understand how the set went. I love when people tell me about their experiences at my gigs and I live through their stories and use those words to decide how I'll go about the next sets. I guess something about me makes people want to tell me as well. lots of people come to me after my gigs to tell me about the experiences they had whilst listening/dancing. I loooove this, i encourage this! one example that was :) was that after my set this time, lewis (whose mixing down my album w me at the moment) came behind the decks, real coach-like, and gave me a run down of how it went. v sweet. i feel so grateful for him and other music makers in our community for giving me such endless support (https://www.instagram.com/tamtam_pda/).

-soooo some other feedback from others that I'm holding onto :) i got some really nice words from friends and strangers who were at the set. I think the thing that came back most often was that people felt the absolute freedom to listen how they wanted to. some people danced. some people lay down in the back and closed their eyes. mikhela said she had a full flash of yellow while she was getting a (?)cranial massage(?) during "dancing in the breeze." I was told by most of the people I talked to about it that carpet air was the perfect party to experience my music at, because of the sense of coziness and freedom to experience the music, the party, the people, in whatever way you wanted. :D from a personal standpoint, it's my fav gig I've done so far in terms of the vibe. the low lighting, the cozy carpets, the alien-y deco. im so grateful. and now i'm out here, like, begging telepathically (and now digitally, and very publicly lol) for carpet air to plllllls book me again!

THE PARTY / VENUE

-I don't think i can even convey enough how in love with the Carpet Airlines vibe i am. most/all of my previous gigs have been somehow linked to exhibitions. the reason is simple - i organize exhibitions. ive loved playing these gigy but I admit i was super grateful and excited for the opportunity to play at a *partiiii*. Anita and Linda (https://www.instagram.com/goofy_cult/) make suuuch a coool vibe with carpet air. they got to the venue at 6am to start set up. WILD! as a fellow installation artist, I must give mad respect to the effort. a big club and a pill aren't enough for most of the people in my community these days. we don't want to go to parties just to get fucked up. we want to engage with our friends, with the music. we want sensory experience. carpet air had masseuses and board games and couches and a dance floor. there were multiple meals available. nothing was too expensive. putting this party on my #insp list. so grateful to have been involved.

-s/o to the studio d.b team for being so fucking cool. after the party ended, I think we hung around for another 3 hours or so, chillling, playing music, etc. the slow descent back down to reality was much needed for me and I'm glad we got to loiter together and steep in the vibes of the day for a weee bit longer.

-also s/o to the studio d.b speaker system, fr! there was a moment during "bounce in the body" where I could feel that the subs were ON. given that "bounce in the body" is an incredibly dubby bassy track, I was on cloud nine hearing it hit the room. punch to the gut type vibes. bless. bruce mentioned this moment to me as well, and said it was as if it was the first time that whole day that the subs were really subbing. woooooooo!

FINNALLLY wanna give a big shout out to my colleagues in the cockpit https://www.instagram.com/bru.glu/ https://www.instagram.com/amanitaa__/ https://www.instagram.com/born_slip_e/ https://www.instagram.com/der_opium__queen/ https://www.instagram.com/buteninanna/

fire tunes. thanks a million!

shutting up now <3

[a-little-bit-poss]

this is my current idea for a cristianos build; im mainly interested in it because it most closely does the things i liked about the old granblue days. it works by amassing a large discard pile with all of its toolbox pieces to recycle and adapt to current situation. theres a lot of effects that cause my rear guards to sacrifice themselves for value so the board won't get too clogged up and i can easily rebuild each turn without using much hand. the goal is to pump up the restanding gun elf with extra power and critical with nectar of sensationalism for consecutively big pressure attacks.

my qualm is whether or not its too slow or not. its a 3-4 attack deck whose 4th attack can only occur on turn 4+. its numbers can get pretty huge which is good, and i can compensate by going aggro early cuz i wont really care whether my rear guards live or die, but yeah. i also dont like the ride line's dragon design all that much or the fact cristianos is aqua force art with a granblue card design. it's granblue without much of its aesthetic.

[gormezone]

back in the day I used to slay at yugioh because I had this stupidly op card (flamville grunika) which requires no tribute summons and basically destroys everyone and women consumed by lust were falling at my feet and everyone wanted me essentially I was ending duels in one turn with my 1 stupid sexy card. Now that Im rebuilding my deck I have to rely on normie tactics (obelisk the tormentor) which is way lamer because it requires 3 tributes (gay) (lame) BUT I watched yugioh: the dark side of dimensions and kaiba summoned obelisk the tormentor (based) and won (based) (based) and when he was like "OBELISK ISNT A MONSTER....HES A GOD" I was like YEAAAAH OBELISK THE TORMENTOR FUUUUCK UEAAAAHAHAHHH OBELISK THE TORMENT THEIR ASSES!!!!!! Nobody in the show ever uses flamville grunika. But to be fair nobody in the show ever follows the actual rules of the game either so it's fine. Being a yugioh player who also watches yugioh is like being a native english speaker listening to foreign music where they throw in random english phrases to sound cool and hip but in reality they do not make sense

[phantom-does-a-thing]

ok. so. The Olympic was one of the sister ships of the Titanic that had been greatly damaged in some incidents prior, I think it had a collision with another ship or something like that. This is before any of the world wars so I don't exactly know what happened to the Olympic. But basically. It was damaged, yknow. And the Olympic had been running for a while iirc.

so what people claim, is that when the Titanic was set to go on the maiden voyage, they SWAPPED the two ships so that it was instead the Olympic (pretending to be the Titanic) going on the voyage, and that the new Titanic would be instead switched to take the place of the Olympic. And on the journey, they would sink the Titanic (actually the Olympic) for whatever reason. I do not know why they wanted to do this, probably for the rebuild costs being too high, thats the only reaosn i could think of, but like. This theory literally makes no sense to me but I am so intrigued by it.

They wanted to get rid of the Olympic, claim the insurance money and then have the Titanic pose as the Olympic for the rest of its functionality since the Titanic was a newer and better built ship w/out all the damages I guess. It's an insane theory.

There's like some SOLID evidence too, like the porthole evidence that the Olympic had 16 (I believe) porthole on the deck and the Titanic only had 14 and on the pictures of the Titanic on the day of the maiden voyage, it had 16 porthole windows. That is insane evidence I don't know how to refute it. There's other evidence like a ton of rich people cancelling right before they were supposed to set sail possibly because of some inside information that they were going to purposely sink the ship. There's a ton of evidence like that. And the thing is that since the two were sister ships, they were near identical.

but also there's a ton of evidence against it OBVIOUSLY because wtf thats THE most insane theory ever. Firstly, the Titanic was UNDERINSURED Iirc it was insured for 5-7mill but it couldve been insured up to 7-9 mill. That's if my memory holds and im not good w numbers but basically the Titanic was insured for less than it was worth. In the wreckage, a TON of stuff found was stamped w the 404 serial number of the Titanic. Bc yknow. Titanic. and also who the hell in their right mind would think of doing that. Literally just decomission the ship or dismantle it if you don't want it anymore. It's INSANE, it makes me insane to think about and its so incredibly stupid but also god I can't help but consider some of the evidence.

It's an insane theory, but I cant stop thinking about it

Lua. Lua did you know there's an entire conspiracy theory that the sinking of the titanic was on purpose as an insurance fraud ploy and that they allegedly "didnt sink the titanic" and instead sunk the Olympic (sister ship) because I learned that a few days ago and cant get it out of my head

....what??? no i had no idea abt that. is it one one those 'oh the costs of a repair/rebuild would be (financially) greater than the consequences of an incident so fuck it' kind of situation?

[em-exceeds-change-zearu]

okay so y’all mighta noticed that i haven’t really talked about playing duel links that much?

well truth of the matter is my account got deleted back in december accidentally by my special needs bro and konami wouldn’t reinstate it since i hadn’t done data transfer and apparently the information i provided wasn’t sufficient enough. so i stopped playing for a few months due to being thoroughly disenchanted

i started playing again back in like...april or may though and i’m working hard on regaining all my old stages and characters and i’ve fought my way back to stage 28 in gx and 45 in dm in just a few months so I’m getting there! the only characters i haven’t earned back yet are yami marik, the paradox brothers, and bonz but i’m sure i’ll get there eventually

anyways this is just a prelude to me opening up my phone today and finding the icon replaced with yusei and me going !!!!! FINALLY, THE 5D’S KIDS ARE HERE

THEY’RE HEEEREEE

BEST SUMMON METHOD IS HEEEEREE

[pussyhoundspock]

okay YES thank god you're on dsc s3.... outside of lower decks, specifically 3x01 and 3x02 are my favorite of the new treks so far. book is so so so fucking important... the first genuinely hot hunky guy in star trek history<3

also, im so pumped to get to complain about ash & the klingon politics. 1) very weird how we're supposed to root for starfleet establishing a puppet leader and shadow government???? ok girlboss 2) literally ash's continued existence using his same name AND same face is. um. literally would destabilize the entire galaxy if just one klingon/starfleet enemy saw him. and somehow he's just allowed to walk around...... whadda hell lol

literally the way section 31 is the CIA and we're supposed to?? be happy about that?? it's okay because it's a foreign government that mildly inconvenienced our main characters? literally okay girlboss. i've ALREADY talked about this but the fact that the war was 1) ~1 year only, 2) klingons has CONQUORED THE ENTIRE FEDERATION IN JUST NINE MONTHS (i don't even know if you can TRAVEL through the entire federation occupied space in nine months,,,) 3) the fact that the discovery then WINS THE WAR IN ONE DAY. insane.

okay AND ANOTHER THING?? the fact that our klingon war happy ending is a CIA coup that places fucking MOMMY MILKERS in charge?? we're HAPPY that starfleet is giving the klingons a mommykink to end the war??

also yes 3.01 and 3.02 have literally been the best of discovery so far DEVESTATED by book leaving (hopefully temporarily ...) at the end of 3.03. SPECIFICALLY 3.01 like again i literally cried when she swore in mr sahil im normal im so normal. the way i would like discovery season 3 if it was about that year and just featured michael book grudge and sahil as they started to rebuild hope in the federation and for michael to find the crew of discovery as the season 3 finale ...

cards: girl with a snake, photograph, love call, hammer, karmic relationship, the runner

hmm it seems like you might reconnect with someone from the past (don't quote me on this ok) they'll be looking back on the memories you two shared in the past and try to shoot their shot again. they'll be thinking of you and want to let you know so they'll text you or call you (i'm hearing through insta?) you might allow yourself to be charmed by this person because you give them the benefit of the doubt and you're like "might as well 🤷🏽‍♀️). i'm seeing you two actually rebuilding this connection. aw the song 'dream a little dream of me' by ella fitzgerald came on how cute. anyway so you'll be working on this relationship with your person. they're going to be very persistent in getting you and making things work. this could end up being a karmic relationship. it doesn't seem negative tho? one of you, however will be afraid of the intimacy.. could be you i'm not sure. eventually tho, you'll get together (finally) and the engagement card came up at the bottom of the deck so take that as you will!

[yeeowch]

fuck monocolor im rebuilding my sultai dredge deck for this

i have never been more excited for a magic card

drop this on turn 2 and watch people who've dropped paychecks on their mana base crumble

see the despair in their eyes as they realize there's no vandalblast coming to save them

Ty Lee or Sokka headcanons?

Hey! Thanks for the ask! I’ve already done some Ty Lee but I’ll add in some more here, but first!

Sokka:

Since Sokka is a strategist I think he would enjoy strategy based games. I believe he would enjoy playing Pai Sho with Uncle Iroh. He, like Iroh, values every asset he has. Probably one of few who can actually compete with Iroh at a similar level of skill, and he enjoys learning new Pai Sho moves from Iroh.

I honestly believe Sokka would be bilingual. In the series it seems most people seem to speak the same language but I’m sure there are some people who speak different languages in the ATLA universe so I think Sokka would pick up a language in his travels.

Sokka is a wonderful communicator and probably enjoys learning the cultures of others. I can see him studying different people and their festivities and being genuinely intrigued at the information.

Although I would say Sokka is more of a people person than Zuko, he also is not a fan of formal events. He likes more comfortable settings. Don’t get me wrong, he likes parties and festivals, but formal parties make him feel out of place and he doesn’t like the amount of politics that goes on when he thinks a party should be a time to relax.

He may work well with others and do well with communication, but I would say Sokka is an introvert predominantly because Sokka seems to rebuild energy by having alone time. For instance, after Suki had basically beaten him up in the Kyoshi Warriors episode, he took time alone to re-evaluate his actions rather than reaching out to Katara or Aang. Sokka likes to regroup himself and recharge in private and then come back. That’s why I think he is more of an introvert.

Sokka strikes me as more of a coffee drinker than anything else. I mean, he probably hits up the Jasmine Dragon but only really to see Iroh and play Pai Sho. I think he’d be one of those people who are more inclined to simple drinks. Like probably just an iced coffee.

As I said in my Ty Lee headcanon, I think that Ty Lee likes anything self care and def has a skin routine, but I think that her and Sokka both have skincare routines and absolutely share skin tips with one another. If Ty Lee and Sokka were in modern times you just know those two would be going to like Lush or The Body Shop together, probably hit up a Starbucks.

Sokka is bi. Like I know that’s super popular but I’m just-like bro. ALSO??? he seems to have a thing for people who seem sorta like /unattainable/. Like I think he likes partners that he finds challenging. Bc with Suki he likes that she is assertive and sort of buds heads with him, and Yue he seemed to like that she had this whole like “im a princess and you’re a commoner” thing because it made it challenging to be with her, so I’m just saying it kinda fits Sokka’s type if he liked a firelord who was also very stubborn. *coughs* Zuko *coughs*

Sokka is supppper protective of his loved ones. Like you can mess with him, but fuck with Katara? Aang? Suki? Zuko? Absolutely not. Like I can see Sokka straight decking someone for hurting one of his loved one’s feelings. Ya know like the brother that goes “if you break her heart I will kick your ass.” But absolutely serious.

Ty Lee Extras:

I kind of think that Ty Lee would be a vegetarian or at least a pescatarian just because I believe she has a really high amount of empathy and has probably cried over Mai squishing a ladybug. She just seems to really value life, especially because she went out of her way to only learn moves that would incapacitate others and never truly hurt them.

She probably likes to help Zuko garden and I can picture her having her own fruit and veggie garden if I’m being honest. She probably goes to farmers markets and shops from locally owned farms.

I know everyone knows that Azula is good at getting what she wants through manipulation, but Ty Lee is reallllyyy good with charm. One thing that Azula really lacks. So I know that Ty Lee would probably be good at getting bargains and things like that because she just knows how to charm people.

ANOTHER  THOUGHT I HAD

so, in the game you eventually get the Monarch wings right? you keep these no matter what and they're really damn useful to get to places... 

but what about in a domestic setting? like, in an everyone lives au and ghost, hollow and hornet settle down (or rebuild hallownest, up to them) ghost should still have all the things they found (stuff like mantis claw, shade cloak, isma’s tear MONARCH WINGS) and by that logic they can still use these things after everything is all said and done...  my point is even though ghost is small NOTHING can be hidden from them 

put something up high? a couple of wall jumps and a flap of their wings hide something in acid? isma’s tear will keep them safe need to run away from them? crystal heart and shade cloak will keep them on your tail

like literally this kid is fucking decked out nothing can stop them 

im not even going to get into their spells and how they’d use them (id like to think abyssal shriek becomes something they do when they're frustrated, idk its just funny to me bc ive also done that in game)

youre not even safe in your own damn dreams bc of the dream nail (admittedly, ghost probably wont do something like that unless they have permission too. but you never know, they might get petty)

night 1: eyes r open

my mind is a complete mess

and i typically want things neat and clean. in order, in line, organized by shape or color. so when the space im in 24/7 is a complete mess, a complete wreck… i have no fucking idea what to do. it’s like i want to swipe everything off the table and start anew… except i can’t really do that.

my past isn’t something i can just erase. my mistakes aren’t things i can just forget about. old memories and old relationships don’t just dissolve into the void… everything lingers inside of you no matter how many pills you take, no matter how much you sip and no matter how much you breathe in.

i don’t know what i’m doing wrong. the thing is i am so aware of my flaws but no matter how hard i try to fix it and try to move in the right/a new direction i fail. it’s envitable that i fuck up. right idea wrong execution i guess you can say.

i just wanna be a new person. to tear myself apart, back down to the base deck, and rebuild myself. because i don’t hate myself, i know my intentions are good, that i’m truly a good person deep deep down inside. I just wanna make the right decisions, not act out in stupid ways, and ultimately be happy at the end of the day.

life is way too fucking short to be sad. my teenage years have already slipped away… i used to be 13 writing stories about 17 year olds wishing i was them. now i’m 18 wishing i was 13 again. it’s going by too fast… i wanna make a change and really fulfill my potential, i wanna fulfill life’s potential.

to do list:

- [ ] write down and understand feelings about my breakup: why?

- [ ] apologize to hilario and move on

- [ ] try one last time with ashley and kiara

- [ ] understand once u try, u can’t control the receiving end

- [ ] sketch out dream girl
