Fingir demencia to realmente mal de la cabeza pipeline

[goldenandhappy]

Angsty lawlu thought: any kids they have could develop laws disease. Imagine law seeing their kid born with those spots or gets it when their two or three. Law having to go through that trauma again. But has to focus on healing his kid.

Law sounds like the kind of dad who'd be so happy with a daughter. He'd do her ponytails, read her books, and do her nails and eyeliner when she gets older. Idk I just think he'd be so happy with a daughter. And she would remind him of his sister and he'd get emotional watching her sleep. So when the first spots start appearing, he sees Flevance all over again. He freezes. Nothing in the seven seas would have prepared him for that. It's all happening all over again. He'll lose it all again.

His daughter, barely six years old, doesn't understand why her dad is so terrified. She feels alright. Her little white spots are funny, even. They don't hurt. So why is dad so... pale ?

She tugs on his jeans and brings him back to his senses. He holds her close and tell her that everything will be alright. Silly daddy, she thinks, everything already is alright.

When Luffy reaches his house after Law's urgent call, he finds him in the kitchen, passed away surrounded by two empty wine bottles from their cellar (a gift from Mihawk).

They had moved in their house a few years after retiring. On an island in the east blue, a calm sea to raise their daughter. In a few years, they planned to start training her so that she gets to see the world with her own eyes. Those eyes were already full of wonder, in awe at the stories her fathers told of giant dragons and magical fairies, stories their friends told of giant whales and marvelous seas, stories her grand-grandparents told of great wars and great pirates.

Law never told her about Flevance. She is too young. He wanted to shield her from the horrors of the world, and yet, because of him, there she was, so young, and already thrust into them.

When Luffy hugs him from the back, Law wakes up and leans into his touch.

"Is everything alright ?" He asks, knowing fully well that everything was not okay.

"It's my fault, Luffy..." He mumbles in his husband's chest "I gave her that..."

Luffy stays silent and craddles his husband's hair. By extending his observation haki, he knows their daughter is sleeping in her room. He doesn't comment but hugs Law tighter, letting him know that he is not alone. He waits. He's not worried about their daughter. Law healed himself. He can heal her too. But that wasn't about the Amber Lead per se, Luffy knew. It was about the trauma, the loss, and all the suffering those white spots brought to his partner. His sister, his parents, Cora... Law lost them all, one way or another, because of those same spots he sees on their daughter.

After a few moments, Law broke the silence: " This shouldn't be happening."

"What ?"

"I took all the lead out of my system. I am healed. It shouldn't be happening."

" Okay. And ? "

" And ??? " Law was flabergasted. " What do you mean And ???? Our daughter has an incurable desease that she shouldn't be having in the first place !! What do you mean "And" ????"

"What does it matter, Torao, if she should be having it or not ? Why does it matter why she caught it ? "

"Aren't you worried ????"

"No-"

The slap that landed on Luffy's face was heard all across the house. He answered it by hugging his husband closer.

"I am not worried, Torao, because sometimes, the why doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that you healed yourself, and you can heal her too. Alright ?"

"Yeah... You're right."

I have haikyuu fan desease (it's where I sit around and think about haikyuu all day. yes, it's incurable)

[yibeimolihuacha]

Not me rediscovering a fanfiction I read 11 years ago and going down that rabbit hole again. Kid you not, it had everything: french pop, vampires, witches, musicals, k-pop, ghosts, incurable deseases, dave gahan, motorcycles, wish bracelets, lots of angst and great soundtrack.

[t4tadrienette]

Turns out that if you look too much at spn posts it will give you the "need to rewatch the show desease" and it's absolutely incurable

I love that I can almost never tell the gender of the person who is reading the statement when listening to tma. It’s really Good

but it must be said that every time there’s a mention of the romantic/sexual nature or anything of the kind, I immediately go read the episode description, frantically thinking “gay?????????????”

[hello-nichya-here]

Do you think that minors, while being 100% serious in their right mind, are allowed to ask to be euthanized and/or if living causes them a lot of pain? Do people have the right to choose to die?

Any person that isn't seen as mentally ready to drive, drink, have sex, vote, have full finantial independence, live alone, get a tattoo, get cosmetic surgery, move to a different continent by themselves, work full time, get married, raise/adopt a child, start their own business, run for president, be held fully accountable for any crimes they commit - just basically do whatever they want with their own life, and deal with the consequences, like any adult is legally entitled to - CANNOT, in any circumstance, "decide" to end said life. Child exploitation laws exist for a reason.

Now, about people having the right to end their own life, we need to remember that NO ONE just "chooses" to die. Something is forcing their hand.

Maybe they have depression, maybe they're struggling to move past a traumatic experience, maybe they're being abused, maybe they're facing some kind of oppression and feel is pointless to keep fighting for basic rights, maybe they just took a look at the horrible state the world is in and lost hope, maybe they have no money and don't want to slowly starve to death. There's ALWAYS something.

No matter what, the solution is NOT letting them give into despair, but trying to fix the problem. Killing these people would not be mercy or respecting their wishes, it would be taking advantage of them while they're vulnerable. That's not euthanasia, it's just straight up murder - often systematic murder (just look at how many diseabled people are victims of "mercy killing", by their own families, because some people see disability as worse than death).

And even when we look at situations where euthanasia could be seen as an option, when people are suffering from an incurable illness that is keeping them in a constant state of physical and mental agony, we cannot forget that many deseases that were seen as a death sentence now have cures because doctors wouldn't give up on their patients.

Even the ones that don't have cures yet are easier to prevent. For exemple, there are many people that are HIV positive and never develop AIDS (which was once seen as "the gay plague" and so goverments refused to prevent it from spreading because they thought it'd "only kill the right people") and can even have children without infecting their partner or their child with the virus.

Life is unfair and that means death can sometimes feel like the only option. It isn't.

Viper headcannons

(A/N: Here you go! Sorry for the wait. School is a...well, you know.)

Her name is Sabine (as we know from the voicelines).

Anyone who calls her by that name miraculously gets food poisoning.

Except for Omen.

Be it guilt, frustration hanging over their past, or simply just Omen, she doesn’t hurt him, or even acknowledge him for that matter.

Of course she takes him as a partner on the field, but doesn’t give any sort of indication that she knows him from anywhere.

Sadistic to the c.

As far as antisocials go, she’s unbeaten.

As her time in the protocol lenghtened, she found herself hanging around Omen more and more( I won’t get into this here because I intend to make a separate post specifically on their relationship - it’ll be a companion post to Omen’s past, since I want this one to be mainly focused on Viper).

Of course she has her own lab, right on the second floor, across from Killjoy.

At first she tested her formulas in the lab, but after a venting error ocurred and the entire complex got poisoned from inhaling poisonous fumes, the Kingdom kindly asked her if she could test her gas somewhere that is not inside.

Killjoy is the only one who doesn’t mind sharing a floor with Viper’s lab, and is also the only one who dares to sleep on that floor(besides Viper).

Killjoy often asks her for advice when it comes to picking materials and resources for her bots, as well as testing their durability in certain corrosive substances.

Which Viper is of curse, more than happy to provide.

I firmly believe that in order to reach new developments in science, different fields have to work together - thus Viper finds herself collaborating with every lab nerd the V protocol can provide, including Raze and Cypher as well as other independent scientists.

She doesn’t necesarrily like to work with others but Viper understands the importance of science progression and how badly they need it.

They have meetings, present their hypotheses and brainstorm improvements.

It’s nothing personal, and by now so second nature that she can easily get behind it.

Lab is probably the only room in the whole headquarters where she feels completely at ease.

It feels like home.

Raze got banned from it.

Besides the lab is a chemical ‘cabinet’.

Read: A huge-ass room filled with racks and shelves upon shelves of chemicals, her formulas, or simply chemical waste she wants to reuse.

Viper used to work in pharmacy - synthesizing medicine.

She was healing people.

Which means she knows exactly what it takes to kill them.

Chemistry is one of  the rare passions she kept throughout her life.

She later decided to pursue pharmacy and earned a stellar reputation.

Sabine was working on a cure that would get rid of an incurable desease that was harrowing the futuristic Earth.

She was always extremely curious, to the point where she even seemed malicious - it made her make a lot of morally questionable hypotheticals of ‘what if’s’ in her head.

But all of that was overriden by her desire to help, to learn..

...until her life work got stolen and plagiarited. Until everything she worked for her entire life was gone in an instant. Just like that.

And that’s when Viper was born.

Whatever held back the dark side of her curiosity? Gone like her entire life’s purpose.

Remember those ‘what if’s’? Not a mystery anymore.

The lab she worked at wouldn’t let her develop certain formulas and enact her experiments, so she built her own.

The period that followed was one of severe subconcious desocialisation.

The work she was doing wasn’t very moral, but Viper doesn’t exactly have issues with something called a ‘moral compass’.

Omen dropped by her lab often just to check that she hasn’t turned into a serial killer yet and was, at that time, her only contact with another human being.

Instead of making medicine, she changed the course of her studies to chemical weapons, venoms and their effects on living things.

With her knowledge of human anatomy, she was the woman for the job.

Around that time the first Kingdom officials reached out, who were interested in her biochemic knowledge - they needed someone with little remorse and proper specialisation to study the effects of radianite on human beings.

It took a while, but they swayed her eventually with promises of full experimental freedom.

She also wouldn’t join unless they hired Omen.

So they did.

That’s part of why she can’t look at him now - this is one of the ‘what if’s’ she could never figure out.

Would he still mutate this badly if he wasn’t in explosions close proximity?

Did she just deliver her only friend to demise’s door?

She just may have.

And it still haunts her.

(A/N: This is tbc. I have vague topics in my mind for her that I want to cover but she currently isn’t on my hype list so my ideas for this dried up pretty fast. I wanted to set up the terrain for one of the future posts, just to give you a little context.)

Thank you for reading!

A complicated riddler gives riddles to their victim while a straightforward riddler riddles their victims with cancer or any incurable desease

[alexc1ting]

How many theories of what could have happened to He Tian’s mother can you come up with?

Well, of course she could have been victim of the mafia environment, like a revenge attack on Mr. He; or could have been suffering from an incurable desease. In both these scenarios He Tian could have had time to get to know her. 

Nonetheless, He Tian’s mother could have died giving birth to her younger child, which would also explain the controversial love/hate relationship between He Tian and his father.

“As for me, now Master Bruce is grown, building a new Manor may be my last great service to him.”

Raise your hand if you, too, thought for a moment that Alfred was dying.

(He certainly sounded like he was expecting to die from some incurable desease.)

If Superman has no secret identity, how does he interact with humanity? What would he do besides being Superman? Would you want him to live out in the open as a lot of Marvel characters do? Or would he just have a more secret alter ego that he only used rarely?

The secret identity was created for heroes of other eras, human heroes who had conspicuous social lives, like being rich or part of an organization or society they fight against, which would severely punish them or their families if they found out of their outlaw activities. I put emphasis in their human aspect as a way to say they hardly could be in their heroic role 24/7.

Heroes like Bruce Wayne, Oliver Queen and others would find themselves and their business endangered if their rogue secret life is revealed, also friends and family could suffer if the secret is out.

Superpowered beings have no such a burden: if they want, they can walk the streets in their uniform, go to a restaurant or theater and no one will condemn them. They choose not to do it because they have powerful enemies who can attack them when they are surrounded by innocents and the heroes don’t want to unnecessarily risk their lives. Yet, when they have a major showdown with such enemies, it’s always in the middle of a city or a vastly populated area, never in a desert or wasteland. It’s called contradiction.

But the superpowered hero doesn’t need the secret identity, that was a tradition carried on since the times of Zorro or the Scarlet Pimpernel, both rich dudes with a lot to lose if their alternate life is revealed to the current authorities.

But the dual identity has a backslash:  the hero must spend half of his life protecting that secret from their lovers, friends, family, everybody they love, the same ones the hero wants to protect, which steals precious time for their heroic duty and/or their normal lives.

I don’t recall Heracles, Samson, Gilgamesh, Achilles or Ulysses, all heroes in their own right, wearing masks or hiding who they really were. In fact, the latter used to proudly shout his name out loud to whomever wanted to hear him. 

The dual personality for the good guys is a relatively modern invention. Before, only thieves, con artists, spies and everyone who had something dirty to hide, were the ones hiding their real names. Conspirators, good or bad, hide their true selves too, but for a very specific cause and a relatively brief period of time.

If Superman ditches the doble personality and still wants to spend time with regular folks, there’s always the royal method: there are tons of legends of kings, popes and other rulers who, in order to gather information, know in which regard the people had them or just for sheer amusement, dressed as commoners and sneaked in the middle the populace in public places. Not that Supes thinks of himself being above us, but the method is still valid for him, with a different name and different part of the World every time (there are people in some placesother than U.S.A.). Of course he can have close friends and loved ones, but for a guy like him, it’s much easier to protect a very reduced group of people.

Think of it: how many people would open themselves and share their lives with Clark Kent knowing he’s a journalist and, on top of it, a close friend of Superman? Not many. In real life, most of the people would only approach him to get closer or ask for a favor to Superman, Kent? Screw Kent.

What would he do when not wearing tights? He can do and conduct researches to find a cure for cancer and other fatal, chronic or incurable deseases. He can spend his time with Diana and roam the Globe at will. They can find a solution for Global warming, learn how to play an instrument...the options are limitless.

What do you do when you’re not doing your main occupation?

Do you think being Clark Kent is forever? Na-ah! At some point, that also has to end: human Clark can’t have eternal life, and Superman will be forced to change his secret identity. Many, many times in the course of a very long life. Making up a past. Getting a new job. Finding a new place to live, etc.

What I propose is relieving him of such tedious task, being who he is all the time.

MECHANICAL WORLD ROLEPLAY

INTRO AND LORE

The world of Carinthus and it's people have always been inexplicably drawn by the allure of technology and its powers. The tech of the world we see now was derived from ancient relics discovered in the ruins of the world that died long ago. In the ruins of old we discovered blades capable of discharging energy, unbreakable armor, and medicines capable of curing the incurable. Though none of these things were built for man as they were too large, inoperable, and toxic. Only by reverse engineering these items did we advance. 

Our cities rose across the landscape. We as man were primal once, but it was not long before we evolved and adopted technology into our every day life. In the year 3150 we chose to welcome these technologies into our bodies. Many sought to use them to walk after losing legs, see after loss of sight, speak after loss of voice. Though others chose to adopt this technology to build their bodies into weapons or merely become prettier or more unique. Even singing better or changing eye color. 

The first war in the year 3200 was not fought between men. It was fought between man and machine. The ancient Horde of A.I. known as the Wrath poured from beneath the ground, they sought to overtake the surface. We mankind, fought ruthlessly and with unprecedented ingenuity.  The war ended in the year 3263. Mankind stood upon a mountain of metallic bones, we had risen victorious over a foe many had thought unbeatable. 

We pulled apart the bones of these machines and reduced them into fodder for our advancement. The materials pulled crom their bodies and bunkers fed the creation of more augmentiations and even more technology. Mankind had finally reached the golden age of technology. 

FACTIONS, GANGS, AND ORGANIZATIONS

The Control: The control is what the government has come to be known as. They claim to be there for the people, to have the cities best in mind. However, the truth behind them is that they do not much care for the citizens in any way. They seek fortune and power more than anything. The government capital of the world is Sun city.

The Enforcement: These individuals are well known and feared as the primary law enforcement of the world. They receive highly specialized augmentations and implants to aid in the hunting of criminals. These men and women are not classified as police, they actually posess their own agency akin to the C.I.A. or F.B.I. Their jurisdiction is literally unlimited and they have many times been able to overule the government when necessary. These units are often spotted bounding across rooftops and even through the windows and walls of residential or business buildings. They possess headquarters in all of the major cities. These buildings are often some of the cleanest and most well kept structures in the cities.  They can be anywhere from large sprawling facilities to towering structures of white and black.

Police: lower crimes are dealt with by machines, androids, and drones as well as simple men and women aided by such machines. The police are most feared by regular citizens as they can be very strict, they handle crimes like simple thefts, riots, protests, and domestic disagreements. They have access to drones and types of droids as well as riot suppression vehicles with non-lethal weapons. 

The Mad Dogs: This messy and violent crime ring is known most for their peddling of drugs. They sell and transport every drug under the sun but they are most active in the trade of Black Water. These men and women are commonly seen performing trades in the back alleys and drive-bys on crowded city streets. They are surprisingly well hidden. Many think they live beneath the streets but in truth they reside in camps in abandoned buildins and keep moving. This group operates in all the mahor cities, calling the lower sector of Emerald city its primary home.

Reclamation: This Terror organization is well known for its use of explosives, acids, and gasses to destroy and terrify. They believe that the Control must be destroyed by any means necessary. Countless innocent people throughout all the major cities have lost their lives to the mad violence of this organization. 

The Torione Family: this organization is what remains of what many once called the Mafia. While their are other families, this one is often thought of when many think of the Mafia. They take part in arms trade, money laundering and and counterfeiting, they also house several illegal gambling houses and casinos across Skylight city.

The Cleansing: while the name of this group of assassins may sound righteous, they are not. They are just as you would expect from assassins. Willing to kill whoever you want as long as the pay is right. Though many of them possess a code. A certain type of person they won't kill or a way they won't do it, or perhaps a certain way they have to kill.

Runners and Rats: the runners and the Rats stand out in the fact that they were two different groups that joined together to survive. The runners corner the market on the delivery of unknown and potentially illegal goods, they live by a number of simple rules, never open the package if it is sealed, always deliver the package on time, and deliver the package by any means necessary.

The rats are the thieves and hackers that many fear. These people would probably be ignored by Enforcment if they didn't go after the big ticket items like diamonds, experimental tech, high value information.

HISTORY AND WORLD STATE

W.A.A: the weaponized augmentations accord was an agreement made within the government  that the use of weaponized augmentations was to be outlawed. However the accord never passed due to the murder of the council member that had been pushing it. Many of the ordinary citizens now wish that the Accord would be brought back, to help prevent the violence on the streets.

Night of Red Streets: in 3310 crime had become even more dominant and aggressive. The streets of sun city lit up in celebration of music and food. The mood was destroyed when the first shot rang out,  killing a young woman. Then the next shot, and the next. The firing went on for almost an hour. The dust settled to reveal over three hundred inocent men, women, and children dead. The reasoning behind the massacre is still unknown, and the action remains unclaimed by any organization or gang.

LOCATIONS AND CITIES

Emerald city: this city was once known by the name of Brenton, however it has since been renamed as emerald city, it is recognizable not only by its lighting but by its stacked vertical growth patterns. The name certainly fits with the lighting if the mid and low sections of the city. The upper city is home to large corporate buildings and homes of the rich. The mid section of the city lies beneath the upper streets outside the range of sunlight, it became neccessary to use lighting. The signature green lighting was chosen for reasons unknown. The lower section if the city is so far beneath the sun that it is not only cold but moist. The green lights are sparse and spread out. The distance between the peaks of the buildings and the sections above are not known exactly. Only that there is enough space in both the mid and lower section for "skyscrapers" and flying vehicles.

Sun city: Sun city is known by the fact that it is the home of the control. The reasoning behind it's name is unknown. While the sun is visible it is no view that would quite earn the name. Peppered across its landscape are towering skyscrapers and above that are the Sky towers. Countless wealthy individuals reside in the sky towers along with individuals of high government importance. 

Skylight: this city is believed to have earned its name by its lights in the sky. It is more of what you would expect from a large city before the golden age of tech, only more sprawling and expansive. The crime rate is through the roof here as it is everywhere else. The center of the city is accomodates one of the few urban parks with real and well kept trees. Skylight city is like a giant circle that goes on for over two hundred and fifty miles. The sky scrapers were built in rings, large businesses and corporations as well as high ranking officials and the wealthy resided there. this collection of rings was catalogued from district one to ten. District one through five are where the high class reside. Towering complexes of high end estates high above the ground accessible by landing pads and elevators only open those with permission or law enforcement. Six through ten is where the middle class resides. Cramped into large apartment buildings and housing complexes. Another ring about another a hundred miles thick all the way around is district eleven, the poverty district.

ITEMS, TECHNOLOGY AND AUGMENTATIONS 

Augmentations and technology are sold by countless different companies, however the leading company in augmentations is Rockwater Enterprises.

Augmentations and implants: augmentations range from bionic mimbs, upgraded visual sensors, mechanical lungs, hearts and vocal cords. Another example is that one can have rifles implanted in their arm or even a grappling hook. Jet packs, thrusters, energy shields. You can get augmentations at official tech clinics as well as black market dealers.  Many augmentation ports allow for interchanging parts.

Medical: medicine became a simple matter. Syringes became faster working. Most deseases are now curable through a simple but expensive injection, cancer is not included.

Vehicles: while ground vehicles with wheels have not become uncommon they are not as common as they once were. Vehicles capable of flight and hovering are most common.

Weapons: laser weapons do exist as well as energy boosted ballistics.

[BCU]PLOTS AND STARTERS

The year is 3327 and crime has continued to plague our world. War has not been an issue since the control took over all countries. Wars of a new variety have begun, in the streets and on the rooftops. 

criminal: the criminal path can be set witgin ine organization or betweeen two. The story itself changes depending on the two groups chosen or the one group chosen. This pathcan he very dark ans violent.

Enforcement: the enforcement path most likely chronicles an investigation by two Enforcement agents and other exploits.

Enforcement and criminal: this could be with an ex or reformed criminal and an enforcement agent or between an enforcement agent and a current criminal. Romance will not happen very soon if this option is chose but is still possible.

(I am open to ideas.)

Justin Bieber Says He Was Diagnosed With Lyme Disease

Justin Bieber Says He Was Diagnosed With Lyme Disease

Justin Bieber announced that he has Lyme’s desease in an Instagram post on Wednesday. The pop star wrote that “it’s been a rough couple of years, but [I’m] get the proper treatment that will help treat this hitherto incurable disease and I will be back and better than ever. “While a lot of people kept saying that Justin Bieber looks like crap, on meth, etc, they didn’t realize that I was recently…
