I think one of the funniest tropes in the world is when a character does something completely unhinged, arguably very out-of-character, and instead of worrying all their friends are like "well I'm sure they had their reasons! ^-^" while outsiders stare in appalled, sometimes horrified concern

I will never get over the fact that the person who I considered one of my greatest friends actually Did Not In Fact Like Me for at least 4 years and during those 4 years deliberately tried excluding me from every conversation with others about my interests.
If a new anime came out and she wanted to talk about it she would specifically only talk about it when I wasnât around.
When I started talking about said anime she would immediately lose interest and the cycle would continue
It happened like⊠5 times đđ like MHA, AOT, Undertale, Yuri on Ice, Tokyo Ghoul, DRAWING IN GENERAL itâs really funny now that I think about it.
I just straight up did not notice the entire time too my ass was so clueless I couldnât fathom that she was doing this. I only found out because someone else told me 2 years after it started happening.
I will also never forget about how 3 of my highschool friends, 2 of them I knew for 13 years, got into relationships, didnât tell me for a whole year, and laughed at me when I got confused when they were talking about how theyâd all been âgoing strongâ for a year.
I will never forget being considered weird and strange and childish for my interests esp since I was interested in them for way longer than my peers. That I was weird for liking things like anime and donghua even though I grew up watching anime and donghua (I could never beat the Asian poser allegations even though I was the only Asian ) but then 2017 hit and liking anime was cool all of a sudden and multiple people suddenly forgot they called me abnormal for liking ugly cartoons at my big age and were asking me for recommendations
I remember saying things to people and they would laugh but Iâd never understand why itâs funny, to this day I donât get it. I am very good at this now tho with my college friends so my SHS was probably just full of dry people.
The shit that keeps me up at night is also that all my teachers would tell my parents that I was highly distracted and always fidgeting or daydreaming, and that if I just worked on discipline and motivation Iâd be a better student even though I wasnât doing bad by any means from class 1 to fucking 6th form and no one clocked that I had ADHD is WILD
My mom, who majored in child psychology didnât clock that I had ADHD for 19 entire years and called me drug seeking when I got my diagnosis and started treatment, because I was nothing like the ADHD kids that she worked with who were all 4.
Also the fact that my childhood was lowkey a giant fluorescent sign of it all and no one clocked it is hilarious. I pulled the straps of my shoes so tight theyâd rip because I donât like the feeling of shoes having air in them, I have dents from it like my feet would not get proper circulation because my shoes were so tight. I cut along the seems of all my school socks because if the seem touched my toe pads I would cry. My favourite thing to do second to playing Mario kart and watching 3 movies on rotation (ponyo, cindarella, Monster High: 13 Wishes) was to stack my collection of kid encyclopedias ( 14 at its peak), read them then put them into another stack. I had more kid encyclopedias but I didnât like them because they had a different publisher so none of the stuff was in the same layout 0/10
The call was coming from inside the house but everyone had the phone on silent

French Onion, Broccoli Cheddar, and Pho soup :)
French Onion - Who is your favorite author(s)?
there's honestly so many so i'm just gonna name a few:
@jackdaw-kraai with his wonderful Guides
@irndad and the tasm!peter fics
@yellow-feathered-faerie who i really must work on that Mandis fic with eventually
chancecraz on ao3 and their time travel star wars fics
and of course, you
Broccoli Cheddar - What was your inspiration for this wip
this is honestly an odd inspiration but i had an absolutely terrible math teacher last year who used to give the most difficult tests and during winter break, while i was cramming for the 3 tests we had in the three weeks after it, i convinced my mom to rewatch the hobbit with me, and a few days later, at like 1 in the morning, i just started typing up Transported and here we are
Pho - Describe your ideal writing set up
i think i'd have to say like music (probably The Amazing Devil because it makes my brain go brr) playing in the background, my laptop charged and not trying to burst into flames, discord open on the side to share snippets and just talk, and me actually having the time to sit down and write without any interruptions

Hello! If Lotr/The Hobbit requests are open, I hope it's alright that I request one ;-;
Could you please do something about a Reader who was Merry and Pippin's best friend when they were really little kids but they left Middle Earth somehow. But now that they're adults, she gets back to the Shire and now she's a kickass blacksmith who is still really witty and comforting with them and it's a really sweet and wholesome reunion? You can either do Polyamory or Merry x Reader if that's not your thing. I think Merry would be the most likely to get a crush on a human blacksmith reader with big muscles because he strikes me as the kinda guy who'd like Tomboys
I also have this hilarious idea of, since the Reader is human, Pippin finds out that she became an adult at 18 and he's so jealous because she's officially an adult and he's not lmao. Thanks so so much, I hope you're doing well hun! Keep being awesome!!
okay i finally finished it! this may have taken a slightly different route than you were expecting but i hope you like it regardless!
As I looked upon them for the first time in what seemed like a decade, our time spent together in my childhood and their tweens came rushing back, almost flashing before my eyes. The summers spent stealing from Old Farmer Maggot and hanging out at various hobbit parties that I clearly wasnât invited to were reminiscent of a much different time.
It had been prior to I had been apprenticed to the only blacksmith near Hobbiton and Merry was forced off to visit some relatives or another for months on end, leaving us with no time to see each other, let alone act upon the last things that we said to each other. Although it sometimes seemed like it had been just yesterday when our relationship began to split from the almost something that it had become, but given the new signs of maturity on his face and the burn scars on my hands, it was clear it had been far longer than either of us expected.
Pippin stood next to his cousin, looking between the two of us as we refused to say anything while we took in the differences in each otherâs appearance. I had certainly changed far more than Merry, given the fact that blacksmithing required a lot of strength, far more than I had had last time I had seen either of them. The buff female blacksmith had very little similarities to the teenage girl that had never worked a day in her life.
I suppose if I had known how much muscle I would have to build up to truly become good at making even the simple things that hobbits nearby required, I would have thought twice before deciding on this. But now wasnât the time to rethink the decisions that I had made for my life. Now, I needed to figure out how to begin a conversation with a figure from my not too distant past.
âSo,â I said, not entirely thinking through the rest of my sentence just yet. âHave fun with the Tooks?â Oh fuck that was terrible. I was a fool and I would never speak again.
âYes.â Thank the Valar, he was just as awkward as I was. âAnd how is your apprenticeship going?â
I could almost see the wince as he finished speaking. We had to break this ridiculous tension somehow. There had to be some way to talk beyond just standing here awkwardly as Pippin looked on. âI kinda finished that a couple summers ago. My master passed on the shop to me once I was done and left to apparently go adventuring. Imagine a 60 year old man going across Arda in search of adventure. Although I suppose with Bilbo, you donât really have to.â
He seemed more at ease with this topic, immediately replying, âIâm not convinced he truly went. The Mad Baggins was apparently quite tame before he left the Shire.â
âI donât believe that. That pipeweed smoking hobbit would have jumped at the chance to do it. Although his stories did speak of some hesitation.â
âA Took could never pass up the chance,â interjected Pippin. âI guarantee that any one of our cousins would enjoy it.â
âBut Bilbo isnât a Took. Heâs a Baggins. Baggins never do things like that,â stated Merry.
âI thought he was half Took. So there would have been an equal chance of doing it.â I took a breath before saying, âEither way, I assume you didnât come here to discuss whether or not BIlbo actually bested Smaug, chiefest and greatest of calamities. What did you need?â
The sudden change in topic seemed to lower the energy in the room, but I could see Lobelia Sackville Baggins coming closer so I needed it to look like I was running a âproper establishmentâ before she decided to enter. This decision wasnât driven by a sense of urgency, but rather an urge to escape a lecture before she hands me her frying pan to be fixed again after banging on Bilboâs door again for an hour.
Pippin started, âOh! I believe thatââ
âFrodo asked us to stop by to inquire after a frying pan that was sent to be mended a few days ago. Would you perhaps have it currently ready?â That was oddly stiff in its phrasing. Did he think I was trying to get him out of the shop? Or did he know that Lobelia, the bane of my existence, was approaching?
âI think itâs back here somewhere. Although I think I need another day to fully work on it.â Okay, this was my chance. I could ask. After years of not seeing him, we could finally have a chance at what we had both wanted. âI needed to take a couple days off for my birthday a week ago and the new responsibilities that have been dumped on me have been ridiculous. They donât tell you that when you legally become an adult, but anyways, I could meet up with you sometime tomorrow to drop it off. If you wanted to do so of course.â
âSure, butââ
âYouâre an adult?â Pippin asked. âBut Iâm older than you and Iâm still a tween.â
âYouâd hate being an adult. You have to do taxes and stuff and you canât just spend the entire day hanging out with friends.â
âYes, but itâs about the principle of the matter. I am 5 years older than you and yet Iâm not even of age.â
âThatâs your loss for being born a hobbit. I however can do adult things and buy a pint without my cousin chaperoning me.â
âRegardless,â Merry interjected. âI believe that I shall be free at around noon tomorrow, so would you like to meet under the party tree?â
âUh, yes of course. Iâll have it done by tomorrow. As long as Lobelia doesnât have anything new to bring me.â
âGood then. Well I suppose we shall continue this fruitful discussion tomorrow.â At Pippinâs newly open mouth, he continued, âAlone.â
âYes. Now shoo. Sheâs coming in and I donât want to have to pretend like Iâm just a blacksmith in front of you too.â
âWe will be back!â

Can I get âthat dance, that they did today? it kinda reminded me of when weâŠâ with a pairing of you choice đ„ș?
Also makes sure to eat and drink water đ«
okay so this ended up being a tasm!peter parker x gn!reader fic because i had an Idea so here. also it's kinda implied desi!reader, but it can really be read any way.
also you better do the same đ«
the link to the dance which i mention is here
Finals were over. My bed was calling my name as I walked back from the horrid chem exam that had caused far too many all-nighteres in an attempt to memorize all of the ions and their charges as well as the formulas that we had learnt only a couple weeks ago.
But now, I could sleep for as long as I wanted until I had to start packing everything. Which was not until tomorrow because the dorms were supposed to be cleared out by next Friday. That left at least 18 hours that I could use to conk out if I wanted to wake up by about 9am tomorrow.
Unfortunately, or perhaps very fortunately, my plan was thrown away as soon as I saw Peter sitting on the stairs in front of the building, playing on his phone. âDid your ethics final finish up early? I thought you were supposed to be out by 4 at the earliest.â
âKenobi cancelled it. Something about his nephew getting sick.â
âWell that leaves plenty of time for our must watch movie marathon we had planned a couple weeks ago.â
âWasnât that supposed to be during packing? So then if it gets far too cheesy, we could distract ourselves with loading up some of the boxes?â
âYes, but I found out one of the ones I used to watch with my friends recently came back onto Netflix. And because I couldnât find it literally anywhere else without having to pay an extravagant amount of money for one movie, weâre going to enjoy the experience of this movie without the need for literally anything else. Other than snacks.â
âOf course we would have snacks. Why was that ever in question?â
âWith your appetite, it never should be.â
âHey, you know thatâs because of the spider bite.â
âLike you didnât come over to my house and eat half of my snacks alongside your own when we were in middle school.â
âWell, sixth period P.E. for all three years causes a person to get a bit hungry after school.â
âAnd that doesnât explain the time that we went to Build-A-Bear and you told me you wanted to eat a bear.â
âThat was something I told you in confidence and something that I didnât expect you to almost yell in front of your dorm.â
âEveryone deserves to know that you looked at a Gollum plushie and went, âThat looks like it would be a good snack.ââ âWere you like this before your chem final?â he asked. âBecause I could have sworn the person I fell asleep next to was not out to kill me.â
âI was a different person then,â I stated while leading him into the building. âI cannot be expected to treat someone who decided to sit out here in 90 degree heat for 3 hours while I took my final nicely.â
He gasped dramatically, playing it up despite the fact that some of my neighbors were coming out to see what havoc we were causing today. âI have helped you study for countless tests and quizzes and even stayed up with you until 4am last night and this is how I am thanked? I shudder to call myself your boyfriend with such poor treatment.â
The Bridgerton marathon shortly before finals kicked into full swing seemed to have done something to him. But honestly, as long as we didnât get another complaint regarding our arguments prior to the time that we made it upstairs, it would be fine. âAnd what do you say to the hours that I spent reviewing vocabulary with you for a final you didnât even take?â
âI thought I had the final until I went to Kenobiâs room and saw the note posted on his door. And when I went to text you, I saw that your final had already started and decided against trying to distract you.â
âWell you should have distracted me anyways. Why wouldnât I have wanted a text from you? After all, it wasnât like that final was particularly important, I would have passed the class either way. Plus, youâre far more important than some stupid chem final that is only vaguely relevant to my degree.â
âIâm sure Windu would agree with that assessment.â
âWindu has a stick up his ass. Which I can finally say in front of other people because Iâm finally out of that fucking class.â It still hadnât entirely hit me that the school year was finally over, but the fact that I could hang out with Peter without needing to study or work on a project was beginning to cement it.
âTrue. Iâm not looking forward to when I have to take him next year for organic.â He took a second before continuing, âAre we ever going to unlock your door or are you planning on watching it out here?â
âRight, that. I barely even noticed that we were here.â Which was surprising, however, this could easily be blamed on the sleep deprivation and the Peterâs distracting presence.

My #1 post of 2022
so why is my heart broke?
tasm!peter parker x reader
warnings: angst, cursing (as always), and i think that's it
summary: you almost got hurt because of a fight between Spider-Man and the villain of the week. now Peter's trying to stop it from happening again
âIâm breaking up with you.â
âWhat?â
âI canât keep putting you in danger like this,â Peter said.
âThat doesnât mean you break up with me, you dumbass.â You took a look at his face before continuing. âOh, youâre serious.â
âOf course, Iâm serious. I canât see you get hurt again and again because Iâm Spider-Man.â
âI get hurt once because I was somewhere the fight got to, and somehow this is what it results in? No, Peter, I refuse.â
âYou canât refuse,â he states, albeit with some confusion. âIâm breaking up with you.â
âPeter Motherfucker Parker, I refuse to let you break up with me.â
âI refuse to let you refuse to let me break up with you.â
âI wasnât even involved in the fight before the villain of the week fucking crashed into the cafe I was picking up coffee from. How could this have resulted from you being Spider-Man? If anyone else was fighting them, the same thing would have happened.â
âEveryone who I have loved while being Spider-Man has been hurt by this, and I refuse to let you be a victim of the Parker curse.â
âI will stay right here beside you to show you that there is no such thing. There is simply the fact that I love you Peter Parker, and I will not leave your side.â
âAnd it is because of that that I canât let you stay. I canât see you get hurt.â
âWell this is hurting me. Iâm in love with you and you just want me to leave? I canât Peter. I canât see you getting banged up on TV and know that I canât do anything to help. I canât leave you.â
âBut you should.â
âWhen has that ever decided what I was going to do? What we were going to do? Fuck what I should do,â I exclaimed.
âI canât lose you. No matter how much this would hurt both of us, it would never compare to the pain of losing you.â
âAnd the same applies to you. Do you think I would be okay knowing that you had, that you had died out there, fighting an alien or some shit? I can barely handle the idea of breaking up with you and yet you want me to live knowing that you are out there risking your life every day without anyone on your side? No one there to patch you up when you get hurt? No one who knows what youâre going through every time you show up with bruises and cuts?â
âAnd what would happen to me if you werenât there because of me? Because I canât live without knowing that you were safe. No matter how difficult it is to leave you, thereâs no option here where youâre safe. Thereâs never been one as soon as you chose me.â
âAnd Iâm going to keep choosing you. I am always going to choose you, Peter. Despite all the dangers and slightly insane ideas, I love you.â
That seemed to cause the last remaining bits of fight left in him to dissipate. âI love you too. Despite your stubbornness.â
âHey, I think that itâs warranted right now. You were about to lose the best thing in your life because you got scared of something that wasnât your fault. Someone had to do something about it,â You retorted.
âIâm glad someone did.â

âłwho cursed the bludger? âĄ
in which the reader's dominant hand is injured badly after a rogue bludger slams into it and none other than fred weasley is behind it. who cursed the bludger?
fred weasley x fem!reader
word count: ± 2k
tw: serious injury, a little bit of swearing
drop a follow if you wanna see more of this content!!
my masterlist:D
ft. penny clearwater
who cursed the bludger?
y/n was currently draped lazily over her broomstick, haven given up trying to teach penelope clearwater how to fly. said prefect was on the grass, smirking as y/n embarrassedly looked around.
"penny that's not ok to ask!"
"fine, fine," she pondered for a moment, "hey, what's up with you and fred weasley, huh?"
"nothing at all," y/n answered a little too quick for penny's liking.
"c'mon, y/n, you're younger than me, i should know all that happens. you two are very...flirty."
"yeah well, my dear pennysylvania, we have flirty personalities. duh."
"no, you don't."
"okay, i don't. he does."
"but he seems like he means it."
"of course he means it? he says it in a joking way? y'know, he means it as a joke."
"hmm, nope, i don't think so, y/n. he's looking your way right now."
"i'm probably blocking the space, let's move outta the way."
"you're not gonna play with them?"
"already play in matches, why now? let's chat."
fred was silently eavesdropping on their conversation as he heard his name.
"sooo you and perceeee??" y/n dragged out, grinning as she did loop-do-loops with her broomstick.
penny blushed, but looked disappointed, "he likes oliver."
"oh. well, f percy, what about marcus??"
"he's just marcus. we're best friends, y/n."
"my fav trope of romance is best friends to lovers," y/n wiggled her eyebrows suggestively and penny shook her head in amusement.
"my one is the opposites attract."
"hmm yeah, that's a good one too, it's really cute! say, aren't you and mar-"
"i was meaning you!"
"huh?"
"you and fred."
fred smirked as he listened, flicking back the bludger harshly at angelina.
"oh yes because we are totally meant for each other," y/n sarcastically replied.
"what's that supposed to mean?"
"yes."
"you're doing this on purpose!"
"hmm? what?"
"oh my goodness, merlin you're stupid bro!" penny said exasperatedly.
"and you just realised. congrats, penny."
"anyway, what i'm saying is you and fred are rather like opposites. although he's extroverted and you're extroverted, you're a cute little nerd," y/n huffed at this 'i am n o t a nerd for the last time!' "and he's a class clown in the most charming way. you like reading and he likes pranking people and quidditch. you're a goody two shoes, an adorable one, but he's this foolish jock," penny looked proud with her argument so y/n laughed, "you're modest and he's very confident. and you're both hot."
y/n smiled, "i am not hot!" she giggled, "that's stupid."
"oi, ange!" penny called to angelina who looked over at her in amusement.
"yeah?"
"is y/n hot?"
"oh, totally!" angelina casually threw the quaffle into the hoop, "10/10."
"guyyys you flatTer me," y/n stretched out as the three of them laughed, "i'm bLushIng."
"you actually are," angie quipped.
"it's a command thing. if she wants to blush, she'll blush," replied penny.
they burst into giggles again.
fred watched y/n. a rosy pink, sure enough, had spread across her cheeks. that was enough to get her blushing?
"oi, l/n!"
y/n's head snapped his way, her eyes narrowed as if expecting an insult being thrown her way.
"your lips are pretty!"
her form relaxed, "thanks! yours are too!!"
penny giggled as angie rolled around laughing.
"what?" y/n looked around.
"the way you return flirting is hilarious."
"a compliment for a compliment, isn't that what they say?"
angelina snorted, "no one says that."
"oh well i say it, so deal with it."
"hey, i have an idea!" penny brightened up.
"let's hear it!"
"let's teach y/n pick up lines, ange!"
"oh you're a genius, penny!"
"okay, so-"
a bludger came whizzing at y/n as she screamed, trying frantically to dodge it. it hit her hand and a crack was heard.
luckily she immediately hopped off calmly, taking out her wand shakily and stunning the bludger, before penny and angie helped her over to the hospital ward, fred lagging guiltily behind.
she was ordered to stay in bed rest and with drowsy eyes she drifted off.
fred watched her feeling so terrible as he saw her heavily bandaged hand, imagining how he was going to tell her that he was in fact the one that had charmed it.
the next day, she was out and about, gently cradling her hand which was broken.
"um, hey, y/n," he nervously approached her.
"oh, hello!"
"i might have jinxed the bludger to go wild," he confessed abruptly, "i'm really sorry i didn't mean to-"
"no, it's fine, really." she gave him a reassuring smile and walked off.
he noticed that she couldn't write in class. usually she was scribbling away, but she just sat awkwardly at her desk, trying frantically to get anything legible down with her non-dominant hand. the fact she was so courteous and forgiving about everything just made it worse.
by now, y/n was dying inside. she couldn't write notes, and even though she wanted to ask any willing person for a duplicate of their notes, she'd have to explain the whole broken hand thing.
"ange?"
"yep?"
"do you have history of magic notes?" y/n did puppy eyes.
"nope, you forgot i dropped out."
"oh."
"do you want mine?" fred asked, smirking as he looked y/n up and down.
"you take notes?!!!" y/n was shook.
"only for you, 'cause i felt bad."
"you didn't need to!"
"i did. you want them?"
"yes please, thank you so much, you're a lifesaver!!"
"you're acting like you're not the one the bludger hit," angie quipped and y/n frowned, completely forgetting fred was still there, browsing the notes.
"c'mon, it was just an accident. and i've always wanted to be ambidextrous."
"lovely, you were struggling. i'll take all your notes. my handwriting isn't neat but i owe you."
y/n ducked to hide the light blush she could not control at all.
immediately she got a confused look from fred.
and instantly she thought of something that might make the blush go away. he didn't mean it, it slipped out, she thought and she felt her face cooling down, a slight frown appearing on her face.
"o-okay, thanks fred."
"no problems, darling," he flirted.
"that's good, darling," she flirted graciously back, bravely tilting her head up and looking him in the eye.
he took it well.
"where did you learn how to flirt so well, my little love??"
"why, freddie," she joked flirtatiously, "from you of course!"
he coughed and excused himself.
"he should really be careful with who he's flirting mindlessly with," y/n rolled her eyes.
angelina laughed, "flirting mindlessly? do you see the way he looks at you?"
"personality," y/n stated simply.
"or not."
true to his word, notes in fred's flurry of handwriting appeared neatly stacked every day. they were far too thorough and consisted of stupid flirty notes by the side. sometimes a little note, written in class, was jammed in there probably by accident:
hello freddie!
i have a crush on you 0-o, hogsmeade at 7pm on sunday?
-jamie <3, boy who sits in front of you in arithmancy
jamie,
i already have my eye on someone :) not you, sorry, y/n cringed at the bluntness of his words
you are very nice, perhaps try trera rivera if you swing that way? or illinois ann if you swing all ways?
oh i'm so sorry, i didn't know that! i'll talk to both. was the gracious answer
-jamie
and again! the lucky boy! this time from a girl.
weasley-
i know we hate each other but give me a chance to explain myself? broom closet at 9 tomorrow ? it trailed off to something that y/n didn't even want to think about.
k.o
fuck off. i don't fucking like you, i like someone else, ffs.
was the reply as y/n laughed and made sure to give the note back to fred.
it wasn't everyday someone confessed to you, right?
she underlined all the words that simply weren't legible to ask fred about.
and aNOTHER ONE?? how did this boy have so many admirers? y/n had received 0 love letters from any boy, let alone people of the same gender. you knew you were good with the ladies (and the gentlemen) when everyone sent you these letters.
dearest frederick-
it droned quite sweetly on about him and loving him and the writing was really magnificent.
margaret perrer
hi marg
i'm really really sorry. you seem like such a nice person, and it's not you, it's me. i, however, have a friend who really adores you: kenneth. he'll be an amazing friend and maybe more.
i also already am interested in another girl, so it really isn't you. thank you for your beautiful letter, hopefully we can be friends!
fred
oh he was very nice. feeling like she had overstepped the boundaries, she put them aside, discovering more and more but putting them all in a stack. she felt slightly insecure, especially when they all looked relatively neW?? the perfume on the flowers still smelled fresh?? who was this guy?
she sighed, finishing her read through and being thoroughly impressed with the sheer quality of the notes.
but there were around 100 words she had underlined. she skipped down into the great hall where she spotted two gingers. as soon as one (she couldn't see which one) saw her, he got up, whispered to the other something, and left.
when she approached the one that was left behind, she saw it was george.
"hi georgie!" she greeted him and thrust the papers into his hand, "where's fred?"
george shrugs, "left, for a date or something."
"oh, okay, could you translate these for me, the underlined words?" if y/n was disappointed, she didn't show it.
"oh yeah, sure, his handwriting's rubbish, isn't it."
"yes it is, i can barely read half of it."
george finished scribbling words next to the underlined ones.
"oh! and give these back to him? i'm pretty sure he dropped them in, probably got mixed up." she gave him the pile of letters, now neatly bundled in rope she had found.
"oh, yeah sure," george smirked, "of course."
"nice, well that's it, thanks for the help!"
"anything else?"
"tell fred good luck."
"right, right, mhm."
"yea."
once she'd left, george took out his walkie talkie.
"got that, freddie?"
"crystal clear."
"you're pining, pffft, hahahahah," george smirked as fred sighed.
"it didn't even work?"
"which plan?"
"the one to drop the letters in."
"i'm pretty sure she read like two, she didn't seem that disappointed?"
"exactly."
"you're an idiot. just tell her."
"but that's boringggg."
"well drop the hints then, merlin fred you're terrible at this."
"i haven't dated a billion girls like you!"
"then learn how to date my goodness."
"true."
"come fucking back."
"hickies or no?"
"eh go for it. i wanna see her reaction and then we can decide whether she likes you or not."
fred strided handsomely in, neck littered with little hickies and his top had two buttons open, freckles and pale broad shoulders showing.
george rolled his eyes, muttering, "drama queen," as he subtlely watched y/n. she managed not to look so surprised, her eyes widening then looking down quickly at her hands.
he would have thought she felt nothing for his twin if a light pink had not dusted over her face and if angie had not nudged her with a concerned look on her face.
y/n was wondering what the hell happened, disappointment rising slowly in her.
"okay, she's into you," george whispered as fred began removing the spell, leaving the unbuttoned shirt unbuttoned.
"cool beans."
"oh and she gives these back," george smirked.
"oh look at how she bundled it! so adorable georgie!"
"you're disgusting."
y/n hurried to the library at 6pm. she had heard the book she had waited for was finally available.
as she settled down with it, a paper aeroplane hit her.
"ahh!" she screamed as she caught it.
it read:
forbidden forest, 8pm.
huh? was this meant for her? it was in neat handwriting and on the smoothest parchment, with a single flower that smelt like fresh rain.

Tell me about your yakuza blorbos
OH GOD this is gonna take a while so sorry if this is late (I'm gonna be on mobile tackling this throughout the day)
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)
Right now I think it's Ichiban..... Before playing LAD I would have 100% said Majima BC I mean he isn't the fan favourite for no reason but Ichibans character is so strongly written that in just 1 game he's won me over. I care him
However I can assign a blorbo to each game for extra opportunity for me to rant like a madman (I will put it under a read more at the end to save this posts length)
scrunkly (my âbabyâ, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)
Ok for a series about grouchy old men this is the funniest question. I think haruka is the only choice here, mainly in 1/2
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)
SHINADA. For a guy that was a random protag shoved in at the end of the longest fucking game known to man he really grew on me. I still don't understand baseball though. He's just silly goofy and I hope he's having a good time with his new friends
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I wonât shut up about it for a week)
Nishida 100%. I would say Date here but I think he's had too much screen time to class as a background character. When nishida left a note or was even mentioned in dead souls I was so eager to read it. A note. He wasn't even in the game. Yuya could also work here but again hes had some decent screentime.
poor little meow meow (âproblematicâ/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)
This is tricky.... I would not ascribe this character all the traits described in this heading but Majima. From Yakuza 5 in particular he's at his peak poor meow meow in 5 he needs to get in the pet carrier.
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)
Akiyama. Look at his smug little face. Adachi can also fit into here because he's an asshole too but akiyama easily tops this one.
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)
I fucking forgot his name the scary red suit bitch from 0.. NISHITANI IT TOOK ME LIKE 3 HOURS TO REMEMBER HIS NAME. solely because he fucking terrifies me he is the scariest Yakuza character hands down. also on the topic of 0 i hope Sagawa is in superhell
hiiiii i finally got the keep reading working so a full 12 hours after starting this draft i can finish it ^_^ My blorbo of each respective yakuza game is as follows:
Y0: Majima bc of course. Majima in 0 got me hooked on yakuza as a series and picking up 0 in a winter sale back in 2020 was the best oblivious decision i ever made. I just really like serious Majima and whenever that part of his personality shines through in the later games its just ough ough.
Y1: Haruka #girlboss. she does not behave like a realistic 7 year old but honestly shes just so no-nonsense in this game she is the lead we deserved. Its also really interesting seeing how yakuza 1 doesnt follow Kiryus story as much as it does Harukas, like shes the one looking for Yumi and she kicks off the plot.
Y2: KOYUKI....... i fucking loved the cabaret grand prix in kiwami 2 and both Yuki/Koyuki were hilarious to watch. That minigame could have honestly been a standalone game and iâd buy it the storyline kept me hooked the entire time mainly bc Koyuki was so fun to be around. Honorable mention to Majima here because his scenes in kiwami 2 are the funniest hes ever been in this series.
Y3: Honestly all the fucking kids in this game could count as a collective blorbo but if i had to choose on specifically itâd be Taichi. He had such a fuckin personality and always stood out from the other kids you go you funky little wrestling fan.
Y4: Now going into this game i was thinking Akiyama was the smug little bastard id obsess over but hes too much of a dickhead in this game. My actual blorbo of Y4 is Saejima. The way they wrote his character is fucking amazing i still love rewatching that scene in the colluseum from him and the reunion with Sasai afterwards. Hes a gruff dude in touch with his emotions and thats the shit i like to see. We dont talk bout that one scene with Haruka though. Erased.
Y5: Now heres where Akiyama really became one of my big faves. Seeing him interact with Haruka and just go around trying to solve crimes was really nice to see. Honestly any time you want me to like a character just have them interact postively with Haruka its foolproof. Akiyama really is a fucking mess but hes so fun to watch ingame as well as his fighting style being by far one of my favourites in this series.
Y6: Ironic that the main character hasnt even gotten a blorbo mention until now. Yakuza 6 really fucking made me appreciate Kiryu, this dense man that weâve watched go through 30 years of devastating life events and trauma. Not even going to mention the final few scenes of this game i have so much respect for him and im going to move on before i become a sad puddle on the floor for the next 3 hours.
Y7: Well its my current main blorbo. Ichiban. The way they made this man so fucking cheesy but so genuine is baffling. Hes the most endearing character ive encountered in the entire series and its amazing how fuckin quick i was to like him. Weâve had Kiryu as a protag for so fucking long Ichi had some massive shoes to fill but the game handles it so well and ough ough. He needs everyone to be nice to him RIGHT THIS SECOND.
#wormbles#ask#crimpeeeko#i am so sorry this is so fucking long but once i started typing i just didnt stop huh.#anyway thank u for asking this sm i have a free opportunity to rant about fictional men on main

( max riemelt / 37 / he / his ) â ( kasimir janson ) has been spotted in ravenswood. they said to originally be from ( dresden, germany ) and used to work as ( firefighter ). theyâve been in the compound for ( seven months ), working as ( patrol ) to earn their keep and since then, others have seen their ( apathetic ) but seemingly ( resilient ) nature.
name: kasimir janson. age/dob: 37 / mar 17. occupation: patrol, night ( presently ). firefighter ( formerly ). sexuality: heteromantic heterosexual. nationality: german. languages spoken: german, english. hair color: blond. eye color: blue. height: 5âČ11âł. build: athletic - muscular.
born in dresden, germany. kas will be the first to tell you that his life has never been particularly spectacular. though heâll also tell you that itâs none of your business. the past doesnât matter anymore, especially since the world ended.
describing him as the class-clown wouldnât be accurate ---his humor was never so blunt and obnoxious, but his personality didnât change much after the virus his. his defense mechanism just became more of his dry sarcasm. it made him something of an unknown when he was growing up ---it was hard to tell if he was serious or not in almost every situation.
trained to become a firefighter after he left school. he loved it, actively working until two weeks before the virus outbreak.
he was in the states with his girlfriend, on vacation. theyâd planned a trip to sight-see, and were caught in new york at the time of lockdowns. everything went catastrophically poorly in such a large state, specifically in the city. unfortunately his girlfriend did not make it out.
kasimir initially found himself working with a small group of survivors from the city. they planned to make a route into the mountains and hole themselves up there, however the general inexperience of the group as a whole proved to be too large of a deficit. while they did make it toward the appalachian mountains their supplies were dwindling and the density of walkers in the forest was much greater than they had perceived.
kas broke away from the group in the middle of the night, before the infighting really set in. his typically apathetic nature rubbed a few of the survivors the wrong way, he had no desire to die with them or by their hand because he refused to express his grief outwardly.
he only arrived in ravenswood seven months ago, and he keeps his stories of survival between the outbreak and now relatively quiet. while heâs nowhere near the most antisocial person in the compound ( cooper ), he doesnât quite see the point in sharing stories like that outwardly. after all ---what they were before didnât matter.
other facts.
prefers the night shift for patrol. he argues he operates better at night.
always has a shit-eating grin plastered to his face, like he knows the deepest secrets of the universe, and you donât.
very apathetic, outwardly. it doesnât mean he doesnât care as a whole, itâs just not your business to see him go through those emotions.
has a heavy german accent. his english is pretty great ( learned in school ) but not perfect.
very dry sarcastic sense of humor. the kind of man that would call a walker âa beautâ or âa great catchâ as they broke through the treeline.
has 0 qualms with a violent solution.
is was fucking more resourceful than he appears. but heâll let you believe heâs just a grinning fool.
finds authority hilarious. but he wonât laugh in authorityâs face.

Higurashi Gou Liveblog: Episode 7
Starting off on the break-in, good start.
Yes Keiichi its an abandoned building âYES KEIICHI TURNING THE LIGHTS ON WHEN YOU BREAK INTO SOMEONE ELSEâS PLACE IS A BAD IDEA. How did this boy ever get top of his class back in Tokyo. He rolls like a 0 on his perception and wisdom checks, constantly.
Shion, slapping the lights off ten seconds later: Keiichi you absolute moron.
Oh Iâm getting INTO this. Much like Takano. Hearing them fill in the details for Hinamizawa and the Higurashi meta stuff as a whole is so much fun. Having etymology explained in the anime is very validating.
Iâm just now realizing that Oyashiro-samaâs robe/scarf/fabric thing in this flashback arc curves behind him just like Featherineâs âmemory deviceâ which in turn evokes Hanyuuâs horns, and I SUPER donât like that. Fuck off Featherine. No one wants your manipulative bullshit or the manipulative bullshit of any other witch.
âViolence isnât the answer to everything,â says Shion, who arguably has the bloodiest kill streak of the entire series.
OHO. Takano calls Oyashiro-sama âkind and benevolentâ which is like the absolute opposite of what she thought in all the rest of the arcs. Also the âhe was so nice even the demons couldnât attack him and bowed down before himâ is definitely new information.
WAIT. WAIT WAIT WAIT. In the original series, the legend just says that Oyashiro-sama came down and made peace and gave the demons human form, but in this its framed more like âAnd Oyashiro-sama the awesome and good came down from heaven and everyone was like âOoh wow youâre too awesome for usâ and then he fixed everything with his incredible powerâ and what Iâm saying is that IF Featherine is here and IF sheâs the one tweaking things, thatâs basically just her using Takano to stroke her own ego, which is simultaneously annoying and hilarious.
Featherine maybe, taking over Takanoâs game piece directly for five minutes: Haha yeah Iâm the best god.
Ah here we go. Back to Takanoâs usual âOyashiro-sama is creepy and evil and so very fascinating to study.â
Is Keiichi gonna fucking snap and murder Takano on the spot. If so, good choice! I very much approve.
Aw he doesnât.
Also its kinda weird that Shion âoh fuck she BROKE SOMETHING! Well I guess we know where the divergence starts for this arc. Murder ho!
Already broken, hmm? Did they change it and have that be the part that was broken instead of the hand that Satoko broke when playing hide and seek?
Anyways its kinda weird that Shion wasnât hearing weird thumping noises from an angrily stamping Hanyuu as Takano explained all her cult theories. Traditionally thatâs where Shion starts to fray at the edges for this arc, and it was also why Tomitake came in âhe thought he heard it too. But nothing this time around?
OH AND THEY DONâT ALL LEAVE TOGETHER THIS IS VERY INTERESTING. Iâll eat my shoe if taking pictures was all Takano was doing in there alone.
I appreciate Keiichi very much but if heâs the one to snap this arc Iâll be very disappointed. Heâs got the most focus in the last series, itâd be boring.
OHO AND WE GET TO SEE TAKANO AND TOMITAKE AFTERWARDS. Traditionally speaking this is right around where they die. I love how Takano is using her âweâre totally datingâ façade to convince Shion and Keiichi to leave her alone with her victim.
âOyashiro-samaâs curse may befall someone tonightâ Shion says as Tomitake and Takano walk off to die.
Oh and they donât mention the angry hopping at all, this is fascinating.
RIKA JUST FUCKING TACKLES HIM TO THE GROUND I LOVE IT.
Wait. Wait wait wait wait WAIT. Whereâs Satoko!? She was never missing normally! What does this mean?!
My Mion/Keiichi heart just imploded even though I know its about to go horribly wrong.
Good to see Keiichiâs still a shit liar.
And Oishi too! Fuck nothingâs happening like itâs supposed to tonight. Oh, okay heâs just squeezing in the âSonozakis are dangerousâ speech earlier than he used to. I get it.
THEIR FAMILY HAS BARBED WIRE FENCES?!
That is a lovely shot of discomfort.
Whatâs this fresh fuckery âAND ITS STILL JUST MISSING, NOT DEAD! DONâT LIKE THAT!
Okay so they stole a truck together, left both bike and car behind, and zoomed on out of there. Why? Takanoâs plan for killing Rika technically hinges on Tomitake dying, even though she actually tries to pay him off/sway him to her side in several arcs. She fails, because he has ethics, but what if in this new stuff she actually managed to fuck his moral compass right out of him?
This conversation is proceeding just like it always does, almost word for word, which makes me think that maybe Shion did turn murder-crazy.
THE CLOCK HAUNTS ME.
Okay, so is this Shion faking to be Mion like usual? Kimiyoshiâs missing like usual, which is usually indicative of her murder-crazy arc. And thereâs Satoko! Sheâs fine too, right? RIGHT?!
And Rikaâs skipping right on by plausible deniability. Good for her. Also, usually sheâs beat up by Shion faking to be Mion at this point, so is Shion still the instigator? Satoko doesnât normally pop out during the festival, either. Actually, thatâs NEVER happened, and is making me very worried.
OH JESUS RIKA WHAT THE FUCK. NORMALLY YOU JUST TELL HIM ITS OKAY WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS.
Also I both do and donât like that Rikaâs eyes start glowing and shit when she starts talking with her adult voice. On one hand, its unsettling and unprecedented in a bad way, but on the other hand, it looks super cool.

i know this behaviour is a relic of my hilariously ironically unfinished higher education but i cannot move forward with the kids' sorting until i have finished at the very least the whole novel, if not all the side stories as well. i just need to have the most amount of facts available to be able to rule on this or i fear i'm going to end up awfully misjudging everything (i'm only on volume 9 of 15!!!!!) and inso's law is both too fucking wild and its character arcs too goddamn important to ignore.
so have my preliminary and very very very shallow sortings with brief explanations under the cut instead, i guess
ham dani
primary: ravenclaw
secondary: hufflepuff (most likely)
i think the primary is pretty straightforward. ham dani has a system that she measures all new information against: her knowledge of webnovels and belief she is inside one direct practically all her actions and have a chokehold on most of her thoughts. the nuances of this belief change throughout the story but she is always seen reasoning against this external system and deferring to it in spite of her immediate feelings. as far as secondary, i lean towards hufflepuff because dani's like an interesting people magnet, somewhat unconsciously forming communities wherever she goes, and she works so hard when she wants something. she went to cram school every day after what happened in february still, she studies so hard despite her grades, she toils at her relationships with the others.
eun jiho
primary: gryffindor or ravenclaw
secondary: slytherin
i do think he's an idealist for a primary, i'm just not sure which. i hesitate to say if his expectations/upbringing are the system by which he measures the world (and dani is. always wrecking havoc on this) or if he feels what is right and as he grows this diverges from what he's been taught and thus why his feelings for dani represent such a point of contention. i still don't know. i lean towards gryffindor, though. he's most definitely a sytherin secondary, though. the cold persona was probably taught as well, and likely comfortable, but he doesn't seem uncomfortable by it (unlike jooin, in a way) and his quick switch with dani from sweet to normal when talking in his father's presence when he could have waited is quite slytherin to me. he's mostly in his neutral state with dani tho.
ban yeoryung & yoo chunyoung
primary: slytherin
secondary: gryffindor
lumping them together because they turned out to have the same. originally pinged yeoryung as a true gryffindor, but i think her undying loyalty to dani and dani alone is pretty telling. her morality might rely a lot on her gryffindor secondary, but it doesn't matter what's right as long as dani is okay. i had no idea with chunyoung until i thought of how threatened he is by ruda trying to pull dani from their inner circle and thought it made sense. chunyoung is constantly surrounded and affirmed by his close circle of loved ones so that outlier is both unprecedented and distressing. ban yeoryung is as gryffindor secondary as can be--bold and brash and even violent. chunyoung is a quieter but equally self assured flavour of gryffindor, blunt and unapologetic in his true self, unaccostumed and distrustful of lies and deceit.
woo jooin
primary: burnt gryffindor
secondary: ravenclaw
jooin's past definitely did incredibe damage to his self-image. i figured he'd be more than not a burnt primary and started looking at those. i was torn between hufflepuff (it seemed like he wanted to be more than what he was, but i wasn't sure if that was directed to people in general or just as a way to make up for what he'd done. also suspected he'd left himself out of his concept of 'people' and had restricted his circle to his friends and family only) but his internal struggle ended up feeling more like a gryffindor's guilt over his breached felt moral code and lack of faith in being able to redeem himself or follow a straight path again. i also thought hufflepuff (even slytherin) for the secondary on account of his intermingling but ended up thinking of the people he befriends and his "facade" as skills in his toolkit, legacy of that lady's influence on him. his personal relationships are tools as is every other bit of information he keeps on them, including who knows who and what are they experts in and how he can use them. likewise, his frantic trying to call ham dani and the wall of post its he puts up after she disappears sounded rather in line with that.
kwon eunhyung
primary: hufflepuff? slytherin? he's schroddinger's primary but he is likely burnt.
secondary: hufflepuff
listen, i have no idea what the fuck is going on in eunhyung's head, like, ever. he's the least explored so far to me so everything he does is a surprise in some shape or form. i think he tends towards one of the more steady onesâsomehow i can't help jut read his shrewdness as something put upon but im not willing to bet on that. he just seems to hate the mind games of the yoos so much. like with jooin, i think his childhood trauma has burnt his primary to the ground and his secondary has taken the wheel. he's very hufflepuff at a first glanceâreliable class president, always taking care of chunyoung and everyone, making sure to keep good relations with the other classrooms etc etc etc. it feels like the hufflepuff that is toiling at relationships knowing their eventual payoff. i know he's the rank 0 fighter (and i'm very curious about that) but i have no idea what that says about him beyond his incessant need not to draw unduly attention towards himself. dunno. i still love him.
#oh how i hate the ravenclawness of that first paragraph but what can you do#the lion reads#i guess#inso post

Last time I made a playlist of recommended youtube channels to enjoy while in lockdown or self quarantine, I focused on individual videos while also recommending other videos from the same channel.
I thought Iâd make another list only this time Iâm going to be recommending playlists or series on youtuber instead of just individual videos.
This is gonna go exactly like last time, so check out any of these that might seem interesting to you, and hopefully I can give you something to look into if you want something to watch but donât feel like watching a Netflix or Crunchyroll show.
Last time I tried to put this under a read more break but it didnât work and I ended up posting this long-ass post on everyoneâs dash. Well I decided to do so again here. hit J to skip to the bottom of the post if you donât feel like reading this whole thing. If youâre on tumblr mobile; why?
In no particular order;
Cinemassacre movie reviews and topics
All of you already know James Rolfe as the AVGN. I started watching him before Youtube was even a thing, before he was even signed on with Screwattack. Back when his videos could only be seen on his own website (or for some reason included on the free DVD you got with the local video game magazines). However, I eventually outgrew the outrage style humour of the AVGN episodes... but then James started doing Monster Madness where he would talk about his love for horror movies, and this where I learned about his vast knowledge about movie history and even films I had never even heard mention of before! I think itâs safe to say, he got me to be interested in movie history just as much as movie production and film as a viewing experience.
I recommend this playlist which is a hodgepodge of James talking about old horror movie franchises, talking about his first experience with Power Rangers as someone who didnât grow up with it, or how Bob Ross is a childhood hero of his. Itâs an excellent play list thatâs really laid back but you learn a lot of stuff from it. James is very informed for the most part and it leads you to wanting to check out a lot of these things too, just because heâs so passionate about it.
If I ever get over my weird hang up about speaking out loud, these are the kinds of videos Iâd like to make.
Vinesauce Vinny: The Neverhood
Vinny is by no means a new Letâs Player, having been on Youtube for over 10 years now, but I only started watching him a few months ago. I started with this playlist when I saw he was doing The Neverhood, a game I had heard about but never seen played before. The Neverhood is a bizarre game, as a point and click PC game from the 90s where the entirety of the video game was made with stop motion and clay. Something that sounds so insane you would say itâs impossible if not for the fact that it exists. The claymation itself is extremely well done, and the game has a really weird and absurd sense of humour. Just the strangest things happen in this thing. Now couple that with Vinnyâs very dry and straightforward delivery and you have probably one of the funniest Letâs Plays Iâve watched in a long time.
This is also âshortâ for a Letâs Play series. With only 4 parts to it, the longest video only being a bit under and hour and 30 minutes. Itâll still take up a good chunk of your time, but itâs not as daunting as some of the other Letâs Plays Iâll mention on this list.
Team Four Star: Pokemon Shield Nuzlocke
Exactly what it says on the tin. The guys from Team Four Star play Pokemon Shield with Nuzlocke rules. Theyâve done several Nuzlocke runs in the past, but I find the Pokemon Shield is the best one theyâve done. Especially since a lot of the needless fluff and grinding has been edited out. So unlike some of their previous series you donât see a lot of Kieran and Grant running in a circle for an hour trying to catch a specific pokemon or trying to get to a certain level.
Itâs also hilarious as they have a lot of âhouse rulesâ for the Nuzlocke often involving the exercise bike they.... have..... for some reason.
Itâs very good and the gym battles become SUPER hype with the Nuzlocke rules and the music.
Baywatching
Having been going to a few years now, watch Allison try her very best to go through and do a video series where she talks about summarises every episode of Baywatch.
.... Ever. Single. Episode.
Sheâs not even close to done yet (and now sheâs introduced Baywatch Nights AS WELL) but her trying to explain the batshit insanity of this show, itâs over the top characters, itâs insane plots and behind the scenes weirdness with all the enthusiasm and love for this slice of 90s is amazing. Please enjoy a good thick chunk of inside jokes, silly character voices, and a whole lot of ?????
Brutal Moose: Shenmue
Probably one of the most chill channels on all of Youtube, Brutal Moose aka Ian, prefers playing games you wouldnât think would make for good Letâs Plays. And maybe they donât, objectively. A collection of playlists covering Truck Simulator, Nancy Drew, Hidden Object games etc etc, spliced in with old commercials from drive in theaters from the 50s,60s and 70s. Ianâs Letâs Play channel is great for just putting on and letting play for company while youâre drawing or grinding in a video game or playing Stardew or something.
I recommend his Shenmue playthrough as Ian completely fell in love with the game and went on to play both the sequel and the newly released third game. Ian genuinely adores the weird voice acting and all the menial tasks and mini-games you can do. I watched this a lot in 2018 when I was going through a rough time, and it really helped me in a strange way to just put Ian on and listen to him talk to the chat and drive a forklift around for like 4 hours straight before going to Tomato Mart or wasting all his money on the gacha machines.
A Measured Response to âIn Defense of Dark Souls 2âł
At some point, big name youtuber Hbomberguy made a video called âIn Defense of Dark Souls IIâ. Iâm not subscribed to Hbomberguy but I enjoyed his video on why Sherlock (the BBC show) is trash. (come to think of it I should have added that to the first list). And it seems the video on Sherlock was really good and well argued.... and it seems his âIn Defense of Dark Souls 2âł video... was not.
Using subjective language, bad representation of facts, or simply outright getting certain information wrong, HbomberguyâČs video on Dark Souls II is, at best, a man trying to argue that he likes Dark Souls II because it is âObjectively goodâ, rather than simply accept he likes it... because he likes it.
MauLer is kind of an asshole, but I have learned more about dissecting someoneâs argument and deconstructing what they have said watching his response series than I have in any english or debate class I have ever had.
The response is over 10 hours long, but this is because MauLer takes time with each and every statement he takes umbrage with, discussing what is being said, discusses why it is false or dubious, and then compares with actual facts and research.
If you ever want to know how to to distinguish subjective opinion from objective fact in someone elseâs argument regarding... ANYTHING really, I highly recommend this series.
I may not like MauLer as a person, but DAMN if he doesnât know how to deconstruct an argument in a logic, emotionless way.
John Wolfe: Maize
Maize is a stupid game. a Stupid stupid game.
It involves sentient corn, and underground secret genetics lab, a Russian bootleg teddy bear that hates everyone, sentient corn, and a crumpet.
This game IMMEDIATELY went on my wishlist after watching this playthrough. Please watch John try and figure what the actual fuck is going on in this Monty Python-eque weird black comedy. Itâs stupid, itâs weird, itâs bizarre and itâs honestly one of the funniest games Iâve seen streamed.
Hollywood: a Celebration of the Silent Era
This is not a youtube playlist. I mean it IS, but what this actually is, is a TV series released in the UK in 1980 covering the Silent Film era. As it was made in 1980, it includes interviews with many of the silent film stars who were often still alive during this documentaryâs production. Each episode covers a specific theme of the silent movie era. One episode is about comedies, one is about WWI, one is about Westerns etc etc.
Itâs a fascinating series, because it focuses on the silent era which, in modern day, I think many people unfairly think of as âthose first few years of movies before movies really became a thing.â And thatâs such a shame and really not true. The artistry, camera tricks, and raw nature of this early era of film making is so important and produced films which can still be watched today easily, possibly even easier than a few modern movies as often the very fact that the films are silent means they are universal, regardless of what language you speak.
I think an episode or two might have been turned to private or copyright claimed in this playlist, but I know if you do a search on youtube you can find the episode uploaded by someone else.
Diamanda Hagan: Bonekickers
Bonekickers is the show Mathew Graham made before he went on to work on the new Dr. Who. It is about archaeologists and it is God-fucking-Awful.
It is.... look. Ok. I like Archaeology a lot. But this isnât a show thatâs bad âif you like historyâ or âif you know things about archaeologyâ. This show is bad because it doesnât make a single fucking lick of sense, all the characters are awful and terrible, and even if you understand whatâs going on in the story youâre still going to be screaming âWHY????â at the screen as each new baffling stupid piece of the puzzle slots into place.
Diamanda Hagan has 0 time for this garbage and sheâs going to walk you through each episode to show you how truly horrible this piece of garbage is.
Cry Plays: Ori and the Blind Forest
With Ori and the Will of the Wisps releasing recently, now is a great time to go and watch Cry playthrough the first Ori game. an absolutely gorgeous piece of work with a beautiful soundtrack and really likeable character designs and a sweet story, Ori is a great game to put on, sit back, and just let it wash over you. Cryâs playthrough is also great because although its a Metroidvania game, Cry fast forwards the parts where he backtracks for a long period of time, so you donât get stuck watching him run back and forth as he tries to figure out where to go next or anything like that.
Cry also recently started playing the sequel as well!
If you enjoyed this list at all, please consider tipping me for a coffee

more audrey pavlikovsky-decker hcs under the cut bc im just talking to myself
sheâs fussy at night and has a hard time sleeping but as soon as boris starts singing the kitten lullaby and rubbing her back she falls asleep
u know the phrase it takes a village? they wrote that about theo and boris bc everyone around them knows that have 0 baby knowledge between the two of them so everyone steps in and tries to help
hobie is the worldâs best grandpa he loves audrey to DEATH and is always willing to answer theoâs panicked late night calls. when audrey gets older she loves to sit in the shop and learn from hobie, which he calls airborne genetics from theo
aunt pippa is always good for a walk in the park and babysitting for the night when sheâs in town (even tho theo and boris cringe when she calls it their date night)
theo panics and buys like 80 parenting books online and him and boris both skim the same ones and manage to come away with opposite takeaways somehow but all that matters at the end of the day is that audrey is fed and healthy
mrs barbour also loves audrey and she gives theo all of kitseyâs old clothes to dress her up in
boris and theo are both shocked at how instantly they fall in love with her and they have moments where even if they canât say it they look at each other and theyre just like holy FUCK this is our baby and we would die for her no meme. theo in particular is SUPER anxious for the better part of a year because he canât fathom losing her after everything thatâs happened so he stays up watching her breathe every night for monthsÂ
theyâre both determined to give her better than what they had.... corny but true
she has soooo many nicknames in several different languages
boris speaks to her a lot in russian and polish but not enough to override the amount of english she hears every day so she knows a lot of specific words and phrases in other languagesÂ
theo is determined to give her his weird idealized new york city childhood so they spend a lot of time in central park and riding the subway and on good days he takes her to museums
they always reference vegas around her and she gets soooo mad when they wonât tell her the specifics until one day when sheâs older and visiting theyâre having a drink together and they finally tell her about all the shit they did and sheâs just like hm. honestly cool but also sort of hypocritical that you guys made me like, go to school and not do drugs as a teenager
she goes to hippie schools bc her dads hate the idea of her being stuck in some boring traditional class
boris is fast friends with a lot of the moms in audreyâs class bc hes wildly charmingÂ
theyre the subject of a lot of speculation on parent teacher days. everyone wants to know if audreys dads are gonna show up so they can try and figure out their like...... Whole ThingÂ
they have gotten many, many notes home about audrey swearing
sheâs a fashion icon from a young age but honestly do you expect anything less from a pavlikovsky-decker
she loves to hear stories about her grandma and theo finds that telling audrey makes it a little easier every timeÂ
even as a little kid she is a MASTER arguer, which they both find hilarious. boris calls her their little lawyer (not that he wants her to go into law bc fuck that)
they spend a lot of time watching movies together-- old favorites of theo and borisâs and theoâs mom, and even occasionally a movie that theoâs dad likedÂ
audrey is a major drama queen which each of them secretly thinks she got from the other (she knows the truth-- they are a family of dramatic bitches) she fully insists that sheâs dying on days when she doesnât want to go to school
she doesnt really get theoâs whole art thing, but sheâs super into poetry and they have a lot of philosophical talks about what it means to love a piece of artÂ
she grows up super politically active and into communism, and boris is always so proud when she says sheâs going out to a protest
eventually she becomes a writer and publishes under the name audrey z.b pavlikovsky-decker and refuses to shorten itÂ

here are some thoughts from my (first, somewhat late) watch of 10.15!
we start off with adam intimidating a minion and threatening his life while theyâre reburying three bodies. cool. this is totally something he can come back from.
joanna! dannyâs mystery woman has a name! i very vaguely caught some annoyance/confusion about her name here on tumblr because apparently somewhere else (outside of the episodes, i assume?) sheâd been called something else, if i understood correctly? but seeing as i missed most of that, iâm honestly just glad she has a name now.
also! joanna texting her sister/friend (i donât really know who she is for sure?) that she met a guy at a bar - thank god, tbh, because last episode it looked like she just randomly had sex with a stranger (which is fine) and then got into his car to let him drive her home (which is not fine, because we may know danny is an okay guy, but she had no earthly way of knowing that).
âit wasnât your fault. you did everything you could. it means a lot to me that youâre here.â kudos to sister/friend for not falling into the trap of blaming danny and piling onto his guilt subplot!
STEVE is WAITING OUTSIDE when danny leaves the morgue, oh god. that makes total sense and iâm glad for it, but i somehow didnât expect them to show that.
steve: âyou wanna talk about it?â nothing super clever to say here, but it just make me really, really happy every single time steve asks danny if he wants to talk about something (or just pushes him into it, ocassionally) because!! thatâs good!! thatâs healthy!! thatâs a really good friendship, and iâm proud of steve. (on a slightly related note, iâve been watching a lot of 9-1-1 and reading some fic and while a lot of that fic is really fun, i kind of feel like many of the writers in that fandom give eddie at least double the capability to deal with emotional turmoil in himself or others that he is shown to have in canon. eddie diaz is basically what danny sometimes accuses steve of being, only eddie is actually closed off and struggling with repressing everything he ever feels that much, and steve has by this point had years to learn healthier ways of coping and he is not that person anymore, at all. he knows how to talk about emotions and he does it, too, and the funny thing is that iâm pretty sure he learned a lot of that by making danny talk to him about dannyâs emotions, which steve did all the time right from the very start because he cares about danny and wants him to be mentally happy and healthy, and tl;dr, steve and dannyâs friendship makes them both happier, more emotionally stable people and that makes me emotional.)
tani teaching a class at the police academy and bonnie (groverâs niece) absolutely acing all her classes and tani and bonnie hanging out and getting lunch together and tani subtly mentoring bonnie IS ALL VERY GOOD.
fdjfkdjkfd oh god. i was so happy with this scene and then suddenly bonnie has a boyfriend and itâs the dude who buried bodies with adam a moment ago. so... is he a bad guy (i hope not, because iâm already a little tired at the idea of another cool female character getting in trouble all the time because sheâs dating yakuza and thatâs for some reason the most interesting thing the writers could think to do with her), or is he undercover? is adam undercover? are they BOTH undercover but they donât know it about the other guy so they just keep committing crimes to look like badass criminals when really theyâre just both trying to catch the other in a seriously bad crime?
oh god, thereâs this whole scene with the academy recruits on the shooting range and tani keeps drilling them on shooting faster (which i have... thoughts about, too, but letâs not get into that) and they make it really explicit that bonnie is the fastest and definitely faster than her boyfriend and this, uh, really looks like foreshadowing for bonnie ending up having to draw her weapon on the boyfriend at some point.
adam to lou: âthanks for the coffee date.â i must say, very unexpected ship theyâre pushing now. :p
adam: [starts saying things, possibly making up excuses] lou: âno, no, come on, you donât have to explain anything to me.â let the man talk, lou!!! if you donât want to hear it, i do.
ahhhh, lou is keeping adam occupied while steve searches adamâs apartment. things are making more sense now. (though lou does call steve to tell him to wrap things up like a minute after his coffee date with adam started, and also at most a dozen feet away from adam where chances are definitely above zero of adam being able to hear him, fjdkdf.)
steve had âa feelingâ about adam. no need to be so jealous, danny.
wait, wait, adam is back on five-0? i... they probably showed or mentioned that in a recent episode, i think, but apparently iâve really just been turning my brain off during this subplot because i do not remember that at all. (this is why i like bingewatching things, because at least then i have a clearer picture of what happened in the episodes right before, gosh.)
danny: â... but the point is that if i was a human being...â love it. love the subtle implication that danny is not a human being, but in fact an alien from new jersey, which as we all know is in outer space.
bonnieâs boyfriend is not officially bonnieâs boyfriend yet and she thinks he might be seeing someone on the side, and this is sad because as viewers we all know that that someone IS ADAM (and three dead guys). just not like that, though. probably.
bonnie: [tells tani her potential bf has two phones] tani: âhm, okay. this oneâs easy: run.â YES. PLEASE DO.
quinn!!! i was starting to wonder if this was one of those mysteriously quinn-less episodes.
oh nooo, bonnie sneaks around potential bfâs house and then STEPS ON A TWIG. câmon, girl.
fdjkfd the guys catch her and now i remember that this episode description said she was going to get kidnapped and adam would help get her back. this will be... interesting.
quinnâs awkward face while lou is yelling in surprise about bonnie having a boyfriend is absolute gold.
lou yells at tani for not telling him anything about the boyfriend yesterday but honestly, she does not deserve that.
also: all those dramatic shots on adamâs face, oh dear. is the rest of the team seeing that expression he has? are they seeing all these close-ups?
adam threatens his yakuza rival in an effort to help get bonnie back. is this supposed to be redemption for adam? iâm confused.
lou says itâs not taniâs fault and he apologizes! this is an episode of people realizing they shouldnât put the blame on innocent bystanders (instead of one that attempts to heighten the drama by milking misplaced anger for all that itâs worth) and i like it.
siobhan has been tied up in some shed in the woods and endo (the potential boyfriend) is feeling bad about it but is unwilling to untie her, god. (quick detour, though: iâve been wondering this since the beginning of the episode, but how is siobhan even at the hpd academy now? i was under the impression during her first appearance this season that she was in her last year of high school, so when did she even graduate?)
i do feel for endo (which i like! itâs cool to see a Bad Guy be not pure evil but believably conflicted), but leaving your almost-girlfriend in a cabin in the woods for your godfather to âtake care of itâ with a sad look and âiâm really sorryâ is not the best of moves, my dude.
tani and quinn: we have good news! hpd intercepted endo and steve and lou are about to question him! adam: [sweats]
endo lies his ass off in interrogation which makes him interesting but also costs him a lot of sympathy points from my end.
lou pretty much assaults endo while heâs cuffed to a chair in the interrogation room. i get why these emotions make for good tv, but uh, hm, maybe five-0 should at some point consider a policy of not letting people who are personally involved in cases near suspects, because this does kind of seem to keep happening.
jfdkfd, adam confronts endo in lock-up, endo taunts him and says adam canât tell anyone in five-0 what he knows because heâd have to tell them how he knows endo, the team finds out that endo has yakuza ties and go to confront endo about it and heâs gone. omfg, adam, how are you managing to fuck your own life up this effectively in such a short amount of time, after you fought all those years to get away from everything youâre doing now?
siobhan gets herself free!!! and then runs right into guys with guns outside the cabin, of course, because this is tv timing, but still, WELL DONE.
fdjkfdkjfd, adamâs brilliant plan to solve the situation is to call up the rival yakuza boss and threaten to kill his godson out of revenge. this is. this is maybe not a great idea.
adam: âin case you havenât been paying attention, kenji, iâm not afraid of much these days.â oh adam, buddy, donât brag about misplacing the entirety of your common sense.
the team is watching adam load endo into the back of a car on tape and itâs honestly kind of hilarious. steve asks danny how he would explain this and thatâs hilarious, too, because theyâre seeing their (ex-?)friend load a stolen suspect into a car to run off with him, thereby betraying all of them and everything they stand for, and steve is taking this opportunity to turn to danny and go âsee, i was rightâ. fjdkfd.
steveâs gut says adam will come through for them in delivering siobhan, and we all know steveâs gut is secretly psychic, so thatâs a spoiler. :p
and it does happen!!! iâm glad to see bonnie back in a safe place.
oh god. adam randomly appears from between the foilage to look serious and share a meaningful nod with steve. is he... is he officially on the other side now? theyâre not still going to let him be part of five-0, are they?
domestic steve and danny in the(ir) kitchen!!! steve is giving eddie dannyâs breakfast!!! and then thereâs something about endo having hacked into hpdâs database, because of course they need to attach some ongoing threat to this, but honestly, who cares about plot when thereâs âdonât shame my dog. iâm cooking you eggs, alright?â and danny saying steve doesnât have to cook him eggs but steve already doing it anyway while danny is once again randomly sitting on the kitchen counter and steve cuts danny off before danny can request his eggs a little burned because steve already knows how danny likes his eggs, obviously, because steve is a stalker when it comes to danny. yes!! this is stuff i like a lot.
danny is saying he could probably get out of steveâs space soon and steve has the excuse of very intently (and yet somehow also very badly, it looks like) scrambling those eggs, but heâs also definitely, 100% avoiding looking at danny in that moment, and then he starts saying how thereâs no paint yet and thatâs bad and danny should stay. just. just move in together officially, you guys. just do it. nobody would be surprised. you know it would make both of you very happy. this is not even a ship thing, but just, oh my god, these two humans so clearly want to be in each otherâs space and they keep coming up with excuses and getting this close to admitting that maybe neither of them wants danny to leave and then yelling at each other about eggs and how itâs not bacon day. it can be bacon day, steve. it could even be pancake day. it could be pancake day every day for the rest of your natural lives if you just told danny you wanted that.
overall, this was a very fun episode! iâm honestly just really happy with this season in general - quinn being added to the team does maybe not look like much progress on the subject of female characters, because sheâs just one person, but there have been SO MANY scenes of her and tani together by now and genuinely, their friendship is healing my soul and watering my crops. iâm still not sure what to make of the adam subplot, but if theyâre doing what it kind of looks like theyâre doing - permanently putting him on the other side of the fence, back with the yakuza - that could actually be somewhat interesting. iâm just really, really scared that even after all of this theyâre going to try to give him some kind of redemption arc that just has no chance of making sense anymore after everything thatâs happened.
#h50#10.15#*#i've been even more absent from tumblr than usual and if you've been waiting for a reply i'm really sorry#and will try to get around to it asap!

Girls Interrupted, Chapter 1: The Institution: 1, Katya: 0 (Vatya) 1/2 - Maeve
AN: Hi, everyone! I suppose this is my debut as a fan fiction author, and Iâm super nervous. I never thought that I would be a writer, myself, but when I suggested a Vatya fic outline, some of you lovely people encouraged me to give it a try. ConCrit is always welcome! I tried my hardest, and I hope you enjoy! EEK!
August air is like a woman in heat: wet, warm, and not in the mood to do favors.
The short walk from her baby blue Beetle to the cafeteria doors left Katya sweating like a hooker in church. âPart-time-clown working a corner in the Red Light Districtâ was a solid look, but Katya was beginning to doubt that it was the right choice for the first day of the new school year. The fabric of her long-sleeved dress clung to her skin uncomfortably.
If the funfetti doesnât cover my sweat stains, Iâm suing, Katya thought.
She tried to smooth down the sheer fabric out of habit. Katya took a deep breath before throwing open the glass door and bracing herself for a head-on collision with nostalgia. White floors, harsh light, kitchen clatterâtoo much for a Wednesday.
Itâs an A/B day. First period: English, room 316. She repeats the mantra again and again in her head. If she loses the thought, sheâll never be able to find her way back.
Pussy, she chastised.
Katyaâs bright red combat boots plunk across the linoleum and up three flights of rubber stairs. She might apologize for shattering the silence if anyone else were around, but the English corridor remains silent.
She, In her loud dress and noisy shoes, looked very out of place.
Mother, Iâve breached a sterile environment.
The white walls and white floors seemed to stretch for miles in either direction. Katya had forgotten how sad the white looked without students against it.
Mrs. McPheeâs door, like all the other doors, was an unremarkable brown. Katya stared into it and tried to reconcile the empty canvas with the image of the imp of an english teacher described by the upperclassmen . No dice. Perhaps her friends were exaggerating their hatred for the woman behind the unassuming door. It would be nice to think the best of  people, but she knew she lived in a time when that didnât happen often. People suck; get with the program.
An eternity later the bell rang and Katya got to her feet before the horde could pull a mufasa on her. The unremarkable door swung open, revealing a short woman with a tight face and copper hair.
This could be trouble, an alarm flashed in her mind.
However, her body did not have time to trigger a fight or flight response. The older woman flashed Katya a bright smile, taking in her first student of the year. Mrs. McPhee enthusiastically extended her hand for Katya to shake.
âHi there! Iâm Mrs. McPhee! Itâs so nice to meet you!â She all but chirped.
Katya snapped out of her thoughts and accepted the gesture. âIâm Katya. Itâs nice to meet you too,â the teen delivered the customary response before Mrs. McPhee ushered her inside.
âFeel free to sit anywhere! I need to run to the copy room and grab a few things for class today. Thereâs an ice breaker activity on the tables that you can get started on,â she said before ducking out into the hall.
Someoneâs had their morning coffee, Katya quipped, the corners of her mouth turning up in a small smile.
Familiar faces began to fill the chairs at the tables, but Katya had yet to find one sheâd spoken more than a sentence to. The presence of her long time crush, Trixie Mattel, in the seat across from her did nothing to quell her growing anxiety, either.
A frantic Mrs. McHale returned with arms full of papers shortly after the end of the passing period. Katya could hear the eyes rolling at the sight of her. Cue the secondhand embarrassment.
Copies of the syllabus made their way around the room. Katya tried desperately not to wince as her English teacher introduced the âphone spaâ where phones would live during class.
It wasnât hard for Katya to become lost in her own thoughts once again.
Is there going to be a project on the summer reading? Is my copy of All the Light We Cannot Seeâwhich Iâve annotated the crap out ofâgoing to be of any use to me at all?
The blonde was fucked if they were going to have to do an in-depth analysis of the text. The only thing she could remember about it was that the girl, Marie-Or-Something, was blind. And that only stuck with her because of the cackling fit she had on the floor when her mom asked her why she chose the book. And, of course, it was stupid. It was too hilarious that a book with a title about not being able to see the light had a protagonist who was blind, and thus, literally could not see the light.
The thought brought a smile to Katyaâs face even now. It was unlikely that Anthony Doerr intended to make an ironic joke about a blind girl, but Katya liked to believe that humor wasnât dead. Was it terrible? Yes. But come on, she literally couldnât see the light. Because she was blind. Katya snorted at the mental picture that formed and immediately covered her mouth. Scanning the room, Katya determined that she hadnât drawn any attention to herself. That was, until she caught Trixie Mattelâs unimpressed gaze.
Go figure, Katya scowled, I bet she thinks Iâm keeping squirrels in the space between my ears. The teen could feel her cheeks flush beet red in embarrassment. She darted her eyes down to the syllabus, suddenly finding classroom procedures intriguing.
Fuck! Shit. She thinks Iâm a freak, and sheâs going to tell all her friends. Everyone will stare. Youâre an embarrassment, a fool aâ
Lady luck chose the opportune time to smile down on Katya, for it was an A/B day, and that meant classes were much shorter. The shrill bell sounded over the loudspeaker and silenced her pleas to be wished out of existence.
Katyaâs second period was library aide. It was the perfect opportunity for her to get ahead on homework when she wasnât needed. However, she knew full well that sheâd spend the hour and a half people watching and reading obscure works.
The library was empty this morning and she cou;d take a moment to compose herself. Mrs. Slay, the librarian, gave her a brief runthrough of her duties and explained library procedures. Afterwards, she released Katya to her own devices.
Katya had never actually spent much time in the schoolâs library. The harsh, fluorescent lighting did nothing to make the room look cozier. Dozens of tall wooden shelves framed large areas along with some extra shorter shelves of books.
Katya trailed her fingers along dusty spines, hoping that a title would catch her eye.
Her third period class, theater, was on the first floor. A lot of people found it weird that a self-identifying technician was still involved in normal theater classes. Katya began her career on the stage, though. Her stage fright and lack of singing and dancing abilities were not about to stop her from growing as a performer. She promised herself that sheâd audition for the play this year.
Ginger was waiting for Katya in their usual seats when she entered the black box. The blonde smiled at her best friend, taking a moment to look over the other faces in the space before joining her long-time companion.
Unfortunately, another year had not flushed out the riff-raff. Katya scowled, new year, same bullshit. The blonde shared a knowing glance with Ginger.
Rolaskatoxâthe inseparable trio of  Roxy, Alaska, and Detoxâremained front and center. Sharon and Jinkx camped out in the back, and Tammy sat awkwardly on her own with Raja and Manila nearby. Pearl and Trixie gossiped to their left.
After Ms. P, the theater teacher for juniors and seniors, passed out the syllabus, they gathered in a circle. Playing stale warm-up games never failed to put the majority of the class in a pissy mood. It was no secret that half of the room hated the other half of the room; times when they were all forced to work together were toxic.
The second activity Ms. P had put on the agenda for that morning was not any better: duet scenes. The oblivious woman thought it would be a fantastic idea to assign partners at random for the scenes. Katyaâs heart jumped in her throat when their teacher called Alaska Honardâs name along with hers.
Alaska had long, silky golden hair, soft pink lips, and big doe eyes. She was easily the tallest girl in their grade (and quite possibly in their school). She had legs for days, and they looked stunning under that short green cheer skirt in Katyaâs opinion. And most of the student bodyâs opinion. Alaska might have been the nicest girl on the cheer squad, but Katya was sure that this encounter could still be fatal.
Katya hesitantly approached Alaska, who had yet to stop chatting with Roxy and Detox, and cleared her throat.
âUm, Alaska, I have our sceneâŠIf you want to go work on itâŠâ Katya trailed off, digging the toe of her boot into the black floor.
Three pairs of eyes turned to look at her. She could feel the eye roll and once over from tweedle dee and tweedle dum. Instead, she focused on the tight smile the blonde in the middle gave her. Alaska nodded and followed her out of the black box.
The two girls made their way to the anti-lobby in without a word. Neither of them knew how to break the silence between them.
It was Katya who bit the bullet âLook, Alaska, I know youâre not thrilled about being my partner. But I care about the work I do in this class, and I know you do too. So can we justââ
âIâm sorry about them,â Alaska cuts her off. The confusion and shock is visible on Katyaâs face, and Alaska feels the need to further elaborate. âRotoxâŠtheyâre rotted cunts sometimes. I think youâre a great actress, and Iâm actually pretty glad to be working with you,â Alaska confessed . She ducked her head, and a long, golden lock fell into her eyes. Katya had to clutch the fabric at her thighs in order to resist the urge to brush it behind the taller girlâs ear.
âOkay then,â Katya breathed a sigh of relief, âLetâs get this show on the road.â
Katya could not believe the success sheâd had on her scene with Alaska in theater. Maybe cheerleadersâwell, certain cheerleadersâwerenât so bad after all. Katya was feeling optimistic as she made her way back up to the third floor for biology.
Are all biology classrooms supposed to reek of formaldehyde? Katya wrinkled her nose in disgust. There were tables made up of four desks clustered in front of the whiteboard at the front of the room. The back half of the room contained lab tables and equipment. Katya figured they would not be spending the majority of their time in there. Again, not wanting to draw attention to herself, she slipped into an empty desk near the back of the room. Their teacher, Mrs. Yates, shuffled around marking students presentâto save time, Katya supposed. She finished moments before the tardy bell rang, and the students quieted as she took her place at the front of the room.
Mrs. Yates opened her mouth when the door slammed open. The culprit was captain of the cheer team, Violet Chachki, or what Katya swears, must be the devil in high heels. Satan made eye contact with a startled Mrs. Yates and lazily flashed her a small slip of paper. Hot pink: Coach Calhounâs signature color.
âYou must be Violet Chachki!â The friendly woman greeted. âWhy donât you take a seat next to Katya in the back?â
The gentle instruction wasnât an option for Violet. The only empty seats left were at Katyaâs table. Katya felt as though Mrs. Yates had just declared it open season on quirky blondes with questionable fashion sense. Dread pooled in her stomach; she was too young to die.
Similarly, Violet visibly recoiled at the idea of sitting next to some theater clown. Violetâs withering gaze focused on Katya, but she was certain it wasnât her that the fuming brunette was plotting to crucify. Katya pitied whichever of her bimbo cheerleader friends forgot to save her a seat.
Violet chose the desk across from Katya. The blonde didnât resist the opportunity to take a magnifying glass to the untouchable girl, herself.
Violet chachki was stunning. If looks could kill, the school would be a cemetery by now. She was a dark horse, a vixen, a black widow, the kind of beautiful that hurts you if you get too close. A girl like that did not belong here. Katya watched in awe as Violetâs manicured hand brushed long onyx strands back into place.
Unfortunately, Katya was no Double O Seven, and it didnât take Violet long to pick up on the attention she was getting. The same painted fingers removed themselves from dark, silky waves and ventured closer to Katyaâs face. They snapped suddenly, and Katya almost fell out of her blue plastic chair.
She only had a second to recover when Violet spat venom at her. âHey, Bozo the Cunt, has the lack of oxygen in your tiny car affected your ability  to function, or are you just simple?â
âBozo the Cuntâ? Thatâs new. Mother, Iâve made a name for myself. Katya brought her eyes up to look at Violet. Her failure to provide a timely response did her no favors and the she-demonâs ruby red lips curled into a snarl. If Katya could feel her legs, she would be running to the nearest place of worship.
âQuit staring at me, freak,â Violet hissed. Katya met violetâs piercing eyes with her own sheepish blue ones.
âI-I uhmâŠSorry. You look nice today?â Katya offered with shrugged shoulders. She wouldnât buy her excuse either.
The brunette rolled her brown eyes, fishing her sparkly red phone from her bag and leaving Katya to pick at her hands.
Mrs. Yates saved Katyaâs cuticles when she passed out materials for the students to make makeshift nameplates for their desks. Katya was a sucker for crafts. She wasted no time in writing her name in thick, red letters. A large, yellow sickle and hammer ran through the center of the page and black Russian characters accented her work of art. Katya was proud of herself. Capping the black marker, she took a risk and peeked at Violetâs handiwork.
Violet chose a clean and classical look for her own sign. V I O L E T was spelled out in deep purple, looping script.
Katya sighed. It was going to be a long year if the ice queen froze her out completely. At least Katya enjoyed biology.
After everyone was finished with their nametags, Mrs. Yonkin passed out an ice breaker activity designed to help the students get to know everyone at their table. Unfortunately, it was an activity where you had to interview a partner, and Katyaâs partner was clearly unwilling.
âI donât see why we have to talk,â Violet complained. âTrade papers with me so we can fill out our own answers. Iâm tired of working with people that are not myself.â
Katya couldnât help but feel a bit insulted. It wasnât like she had herpes or something. They didnât even have to share their entire life stories with each other; a favorite color is as generic as it gets. If the bitch wanted to be difficult, Katya sure as hell wasnât going to make it easy for her.
âLook, Princess, I donât know anything about science other than itâs really good for you,â Katya bit back, âBut I havenât done enough crack to melt my brain. Do you honestly think people would believe that you could produce chicken scratch like this?â The blonde gestured pointedly to the top of her own page where she had scrawled out her name. Violet pinched the bridge of her nose.
âOh and Iâm also not bad at science. It was a joke, A bad one,â Katya tried to assure the frustrated girl in front of her. Her words of comfort did little to change her new partnerâs mood, though. She tried again, âWhatâs your favorite color?â

Lovely Good Omens fandom! Many of you have asked for/mentioned having a text version of the Yelp reviews, which if I were a better person I would have remembered to include in the first place. Better late than never? So hereâs a version below and I also threw this up on AO3 so there are options. For the record, Iâm not at all trained in transcribing visual media, so if anyone wants to add to/edit/do whatever to this post, especially to make it more accessible, you have carte blanche to do so đ
Also I typed this up in a hurry so, as always, apologies for any typos.Â

So I slipped into this place because I spotted my ex across the street and would have rather chugged a cocktail of bleach, lighter fluid, and a condensed solution of all my middle school years then talk to that asshole. Owner was on me the second I walked through the door and I thought he was gonna be one of those âEither buy something or get outâ types. Nah. I spilled the story, said I really wasnât looking to purchase anything, and he LIT UP like nobodyâs business. He gave me tea and promised Iâd never run into my ex again. Which is a super sketchy promise on its own and also should have been hilarious coming from a guy a century behind in style.
...Kinda believed him though.Â

Pretty sure this guy wants a library, not a bookshop. I mean, heâs nice and all when you first come in, but trying to actually buy a book? Good fucking luck. Heâs too busy to see you right now (for the record heâs super bad at pretending to be busy). Or claims that this book has already been put on reserve (then why wasnât it in the reserve pile...?). Or the price suddenly jumped an obscene amount. Or he just straight up hems and haws until you get fed up and leave. I watched him pull a novel straight out of a womanâs hands once when she claimed that price was no object and she wouldnât be leaving the store until sheâd purchased it. Youâd think she was trying to kidnap one of the guyâs kids!
So yeah. Feel like popping in to browse, maybe take pictures for your research, all while making quiet conversation with someone who quite frankly knows his stuff? This is the place for you. Want to actually buy something? Go elsewhere. Pretty sure Fell doesnât even own a cash register. At least Iâve never seen one.Â
He wants a library and Iâd honestly tell him as much if he didnât scare me just a little bit...

I stayed here for three days once. Found a bathroom off the romance section and a chair hidden away in the back. Way comfier than my mattress at home. Mostly played iPhone games and kept real quiet at night. Experiment ended when I popped out for breakfast and didnât make it back before a random 10:00am closing. Donât think the owner ever realized what was up.Â

I really love this place. Iâve been coming here since I moved to London, about twelve years ago, and itâs one of the most soothing bookstores Iâve ever had the pleasure of visiting. Yeah, you hear talk of weird things going on at Fellâs, but really? We could all do with a bit more quirky in our lives. And Fell provides that in spades: Annual plants that never seem to wither, let alone die. The smell of incense mixing with cocoa. Strange books tucked horizontally into the shelves, feeling like they have a touch of magic to them. Nonsensical conversations taking place in dark corners (Iâm talking candid chats about the apocalypse and whether angels could actually bless all the rains down in Africa. I swear Fell and his boyfriend are the religion Mythbusters or something.) Iâm going to sound like a total nerd here for a moment, but it feels like some sort of liminal space. You know when you were a kid and you were just desperate to receive your Hogwarts letter? Or find your own wardrobe to Narnia? Thatâs what walking into Fellâs feels like. Like youâve finally found that portal and can stay as long as you like, provided you donât try to take anything back with you into the ârealâ world. Hell, maybe thatâs why he wonât let anyone buy his books.Â

Iâm not gonna pretend I have anything to say about whether this is a good bookstore or not, but if you ever want knitting help you should definitely stop by. Mr. Fell knows an absurd amount about crafts for a guy who looks like my grandpa and heâs now replaced Youtube as my go-to for alleviating âOmg please fix this how the hell did I manage to reverse the pattern??â panic. For the record, I didnât just wander up to a random bookseller one day and demand that he help me salvage the ruins of my first sweater. Iâd taken a seat inside to wait out a storm, had my messy sleeve stuffed into my purse, and heâd offered the help. Bit of a bastard about things like gauge and color--not everyone wants to wear tartan, dude--but you get used to that. He means well. Said I should come back to show him the finished piece, which I did. Things just kind of spiraled from there. Heâs an absolute treasure trove of knowledge once you get him talking and a muffin to boot. If he were twenty years younger and in any way straight I would have asked him out in a heartbeat. As it is Iâm considering setting him up with Grandpa.Â

Iâm not really a book person myself but I followed my wife in with our seventh-month old and was kinda embarrassed when he started making a fuss. Normally Iâm full Badass Mom mode while in public--Iâve got a kid to feed, change, sooth, and you all can damn well deal with it--but this place was so quiet Liam seemed extra loud in comparison. I was about to take him back out when a man appeared out of nowhere. The owner I guess, based on how some of these other reviews describe him. Older gentleman with clothes out of some period piece. Anyway, he scoops Liam into his arms like he was born for it and started bouncing. Our fussy, temperamental, drama queen Liam settled in an instant and my wife got to browse to her heartâs content. I donât know how he did it, but that man is an absolute angel. Full stars for that moment alone.Â

Run by this delightfully frumpy guy who sometimes hands out biscuits from a sewing tin like my gran used to. He asked me if I was looking for anything in particular and I told him my name was Jared, I was 19, but sadly Iâd never learned how to read. I have NEVER seen a man more confused in my life. 10/10 would meme him again.Â

Iâm setting the record straight here since there are a bunch of reviews claiming itâs just London folklore: there is a snake at A.Z. Fellâs. Must be an exotic pet he usually keeps upstairs because Iâve only ever seen it twice. Is it big? Yes. Scary? Fuck yes, but Iâve never seen it do anything more than give a warning hiss at this drunk who wandered in and started yelling. (Are snakes good guard dogs? This one is.) The other time he was just chilling on top of one of the shelves. Snoozing, I guess. I asked Mr. Fell if I could pet him and he said maybe after he woke up, but then I had to get to class and all.Â
Afraid of snakes? Steer clear. Otherwise Iâd really recommend popping in and seeing if heâs around. Idk, maybe Iâm just a snake fan but he looks super sweet and chill. Life is short. Boop the snake snoot.Â

I live down the street from A.Z. Fellâs and let me tell you, this place is spooky as fuck. All sorts of weird lights and noises coming from it. At all times of the day and night too. Either this bowtie wearing bookworm has one crazy sex life or the place is haunted. Juryâs out on which.Â

This shop smells. Not that old book smell either, oh no, but like something is molding. I took my little Johnny in here to try and get him interested in something other than those damned video games and I walk into what smells like a whole cloud of toxic mold! My boy has a weak constitution as it is and if he comes down with anything I will be pressing charges, you mark my words.Â

Has anyone read this guyâs opening hours? I included a photo above:Â âI open the shop on most days about 9:30AM perhaps 10:AM. While occasionally I have opened the shop as early as 8, I have been known not to open until 1.â Absolutely insane. This guyâs a madman and I love him. If anyone actually manages to get into this place please let me know because I need to shake Fellâs hand.Â

What's something you couldn't live without, other than the obvious? Itâd be very hard to have to get by without my glasses. Iâd technically survive, but Iâll have to get used to bumping into things a lot and never recognizing anyone unless theyâre right beside/in front of me. What's something that will always cheer you up? Dogs. Real life dogs, photos of dogs, videos of dogs, stories about dogs, etc. Who's had the biggest positive impact on your life? My orgmates. They made me happy when I needed it the most, called me out when I needed the help, and idk Iâm just happy whenever I get to see them. I canât recall a time where I felt like it was a chore to spend some time with them. Do you wear flip-flops during the winter? Sigh...moving on... What was the last thing you said out loud? I asked Nina to help me bring Cooper and his stuff up to my parentsâ room; specifically, I asked her to bring his food and water bowls.
What's something that irritates you to no end? Backhand compliments. An uncle once congratulated me for getting into my dream school but ended his sentence with âare you sure you donât wanna go to [2nd top university in the country, (which I also passed the day before)]? Youâll fit better there.â This was like two days after I found out I got into UP, so I was still on cloud nine. I donât know how my face contorted after that but I wasnât pleased.
Honestly, do looks matter to you? Yes, but not as much as personality and intelligence. When was the last time you had a girls/guys night out? Not sure. I just have nights out in general; I never plan out gender-exclusive hangouts with my friends. Do you still watch kiddie movies/tv shows? Sometimes, when I get in the mood to. Itâs not something I feel the need to do regularly. What's your worst habit? Never learning my lesson and being careless just because everything is going well. Best way I can illustrate this is when a couple of a months ago I started getting regular headaches because Iâd sleep at 3, 4 AM â I addressed it by giving myself an earlier bedtime. When the headaches went away and I started feeling better, I went right back to sleeping late lol. Procrastinating is a good example too; Iâve submitted work early occasionally and itâs satisfying as fuck, but I never learn for the most part and stick to doing stuff at the last minute. Do your parents call you by any embarrassing nicknames? No. Byn is a nickname, but I donât find it embarrassing. Do you have road rage? Yeah but there have to be certain conditions for me to get to that point, like once Iâve seen enough stupidity on the road and I canât take it anymore; when Iâm tense about something; or when traffic has been standstill for too long. Is there a certain word that you always forget how to spell? Not really. I know my spelling pretty well. Are there any books in your room? Which ones? Yesssss but itâs mostly because I owned a lot of books as a kid and Iâve thrown none of them out. My book collection is sorely not updated because I stopped reading as I got older. Do you take too many surveys? I wouldnât say I take too many, especially considering the fact that I used to take like 7-10 surveys everyday back in high school. I do take them regularly. Write some lyrics from the song you're currently listening to: "You know Iâm always coming back to this place, you know Iâm always gonna look for your face.â
When it comes to dating, what's your preferred age range? 0-1 year. When was the last time someone gave you a weird look? Continued the next morning, lol. I was dancing in my seat over dinner last night because the fried chicken we had was super good, so my mom looked at me strangely. Do you like to cuddle? Only with a significant other, and an animal if theyâre willing to cuddle. Do you like the band Cartel? I donât think Iâve heard of that band yet. Do you play any instruments? No, but Iâm always wishing I could. Do you ever blare the music in the car and dance like an idiot? I used to do that when I drove to and from school. Itâs the only time in the day where Iâm not working and Iâm alone, so I allow myself to let loose. Though I gotta say, most of it is recorded because I always have a dashcam on HAHAHAHA so I definitely have some footage I donât want getting aired in like my funeral or something. Do you like playing in the rain? When I was a kid.
What's something you miss? Going to the mall is a big one. Anything unpleasant coming up soon? The worst thing I can think of is the first anniversary of Nachoâs passing. Itâs not till September, but when I think about how March literally feels like yesterday September doesnât seem too far away anymore. If you had a pet moose, what would you name him? Probably the name of another animal, like Cow. Iâve seen other people name their dogs the names of different animals and it has always sounded so hilarious to me. Do you often hold back what you really want to say? If itâs gonna make me look unnecessarily blunt and hurtful then yes. Are you currently wearing any jewlery? Nope. What was the last gift you gave to someone? Cooper, for Fatherâs Day. It was my momâs idea but I helped chip in with the graduation money I got from one of my aunts. Do you decorate for Christmas? (If you celebrate it, that is.) We do. Iâll probably put a tree and some stockings up once I live alone, idk, just so I donât feel too lonely. Are you hungry? A bit, but itâs manageable. On that note, I miss continental breakfasts. Iâve been having Filipino-style breakfast for months and I really would just like a goddamn croissant or bread rolls with butter for once, lol. When was the last time you went bowling? Sometime in September and October last year. Can you whistle? Yes. Is there a certain genre of music that you just can't stand? Country. Are you allergic to anything? Nope. How many pillows do you sleep with? Two. I lay my head on one and hug another. If I donât have a ~hug pillow~ it takes much longer for me to fall asleep. You've just won a free vacation! Where do you want to go? Covid restrictions hypothetically put aside, Iâd love to go on the New York/Texas trip I initially planned as my grad gift. Do you have a good relationship with your parents? I have a good relationship with my dad. But itâs not like I feel comfortable enough to tell either of my parents any of my secrets. What's your favorite thing about yourself? Gabie likes to tell me âyouâre too selfless, you donât have to help everyoneâ in sort of like an annoyed tone because thatâs exactly what I do lol - help anyone, even if I have to go out of my way or even if itâll inconvenience me to do it. But I love it about me. I like when I get to make people go home with one less issue on their shoulders. Do you have any health problems? Scoliosis. Have you ever had a near-death experience? Almost smashed into a car that suddenly braked while I was going 50, 60 kph. Are you extremely picky when it comes to guys/girls? Thatâs what demis essentially are, lol. Do you ever listen to classical music? Itâs my last resort when Iâm studying and no other music is helping me get focused. What was the last concert you attended? Paramore. What's a movie you'd like to see right now? (Old or new) Ammonite, itâs an upcoming film with Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan. Do you take life too seriously? Most of the time. I just find it necessary that way. When was the last time you were truly scared? This weekend when my mom watched a jumpscare with the sound on, so I heard the loud demon scream that came up in the end. What's the funniest trick you've ever pulled on anyone? I donât like pulling tricks because I donât like them pulled on me. The most Iâve done is take Gabâs phone and pretend with her that itâs lost. Do you like orange juice? Iâll drink it if itâs served for free, but I wouldnât buy one for myself. Do you own any skinny jeans? Yes, nearly all my jeans are skinny. Do you have a diary/journal that you frequently write in? Youâre looking at it. When was the last time you had a good workout? November, back when I still had that intense PE class that made me work out for an hour every Wednesday and Friday. Do you like your eye color? I find it too common but Iâm not actively complaining about it. I donât feel the need to change it. When was the last time you played with Play-Doh? Two or three years ago at a cousinsâ place. One of them was still a baby then, so the toys they had around were clay and kinetic sand and stuff. What's something that you think people waste too much time on? Fighting on Facebook comments lol Do you think they should outlaw talking on your cell phone while driving? They already have, at least here. Are you embarrassed to burp or fart in front of your friends? For the most part. Iâll burp only in front of Angela and Gab. Do you like peanut butter cookies? Yesssssss, but I donât get to have it a lot. :(
