#is that there's buncha explosions

[ludrii]

Ranboom?

Like put that guy in a situation amirite

[lillazyboithings]

The Father (periodic table), The Son (laboratory seat work about hybridization of carbon), and the Holy Spirit (multiple chemistry notebooks and papers spread out on my desk)

Truly a magical first week of classes

[theskeletonatthewritersblock]

When Catha nearly dies after an attempt on their life, they wake to the loss of sight in their left eye, and the ability to see into the oceans of Tathos, of the Seraphina galaxy, which is contained in a reality separate from their own.

Vicen falls at the hands of a rival Sea Master, but when he rises it is with sights on a city known as Palmoa, located on a world not light years away, but time lines.

Together Catha and Vicen, bound by a tether stronger then the laws of reality, must aid in their separate struggles to seek revenge on their killers, and stop a gate from opening that may see the ultimate destruction of both of their worlds.

art explosion 💥💥💥💥 wanted to test out a new brush so I drew a buncha people I see on my dash

[mischiefwife]

Barcus should be a full companion.

Baldur's Gate 3 is really cool and i like it but why do we get like 5 recruitable variations of elf and not ONE short race? Dwarves gnomes and halflings are right there guys! Barcus could be the perfect answer for a buncha reasons.

First, you can recruit him early on. He's right there in the blighted village closer than Karlach is, so it isn't like you'll get him super late. Even have a funny opportunity to totally blow it by hitting the wrong lever (like how you can fuck up saving Gale). As for his class he's admittedly not good at fighting but he makes his own explosives so maybe he could be a good skill monkey type character OR be an artificer if they add that class.

Second, he's got hits of story in all three acts that would work perfect with him there. He's arguably got more potential story beats than Karlach. Act 1 save him and rescue the others from Grymforge. Act 2 find Wulbren in Moonrise, meet the Ironhands at Last Light. Act 3 decide how to deal with the Ironhands and the Gondians. Plenty of good and bad choices.

Third, even though he's clearly got Bongle bussy on his mind, Wulbren does not feel the same. Imagine a romance where you help Barcus out and then at the end he's like why was i chasing this asshole around when YOU were right here the whole time! It sound so dumb but it'd be cute as fuck.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

[tyxaar]

Also can I just say that Cub's marketing for the fireworks factory is so damn good. Like, setting up shows in peoples' bases, arming HotGuy with an explosive crossbow, and gathering a buncha hermits for a firework battle against the dragon? I haven't seen so many fireworks used since crossbows were added!!!

spoilers ahead for s1 and 2 of arcane

jinx centered Arcane rambleeee :3

i feel that jinx is the embodiment of getting so close to happiness but having it constantly torn away from her. Usually somewhat by her own doing, but Vi also had a lot to do with her losses when u think abt it.

Ekko Jinx Vi Claggor and. the guy i forget his name. Were all starting to be happy and live a life with Vander and the chill guy who was like ekkos dad. Yea sure they did get involved with shady shit, and crime and all of that. But They didnt have much of a choice while living in Zaun. But then they go on a mission, which the outcome of has a chain reaction to the rest of the series.

(as clearly shown in the AU where vi is dead and everyone else is thriving and hextech doesnt exist bc jayce probably succeeded in his attempt on his life after the explosion killed Vi. And Theres a buncha stuff that could have happened w viktor. maybe his disease progressed too far, or he didnt gain interest because of the outcome of its accidental use killing a young girl frkm the undercity. which could give him moral cause to not support jayce. but anyways back to the main topic)

That mission led to powder/jinx really really needing to feel helpful. So what happens? She gets her bombs to work. But she accidentally "kills" vander in the process. As well as actually killing claggor and the other guy. Therefore getting si close to feeling happy and useful. But it being taken away by her own actions and Vi's influence (imo vi's reaction is what leads her to be taken in by silco. bc silco feels safer now than Vi, who just hit her in the face and called her a jinx after previously reassuring her she wasnt.)

Later on when Jinx is with silco. Silco loves jinx. He's a decent father figure, horrible person (product of environment and never finding the letter) but an ok father. He loves Jinx and wouldn't give her to Piltover even though thats what the council wanted to 'allow' zaun to be its own sovereign state. He trusts her to an extent. She has her fun with her gadgets and explosives and Silco scolds her when needed. etc. I'd argue that Even though it wasn't perfect, and jinx was struggling with untreated mental illness, She was starting to get kinda happy and comfortable.

But what happens next? She kidnaps Vi and Caitlyn, Vi accidentally triggers her into an episode, and jinx accidentally kills silco while she's disoriented and hallucinating. And even after that?? Silco didnt get upset because he Knew that she didnt mean to. ( which EUGH.. their fucked up father daughter duo makes me so emotional) Happiness ripped away p2.

Okay! Maybe third time is the charm. She has Isha! And She's done with the Jinx persona but knows she isnt really powder either. She does her best to be a good older sister and shows isha the ropes of zaun-living kinda. They genuinely have a nice bond and Jinx stops getting involved with as much violence. Also if you notice, most of her hallucinations have stopped (at least on screen).

And Then they meet up w Vi and find Warwick/Vander. They make it to Viktor's Cult and happiness looks so fucking close. They could be a real Family.

And WHAT HAPPENS????? Ambitcha and her army barge in, wanting Warwick for a weapon, Jayce drops in to try to kill his boyfriend who isnt himself fully anymore, and it all goes ti shit! Jinx loses Isha and Vander (again) And its all fucked. That was her last fucking straw. After losing all of that she goes tk prison.

And after EVERYTHING she's endured. All of that kind of finalizes in her brain that she is a Jinx.

In the end, If you look at jinx's facial expressions as she saves Vi and (probably) dooms herself, she's content. She's content dying this way. After losing Everything. After feeling like she was the cause of everything bad. She could do One thing to give her remaining family member happiness. And doing that one thing seemed to give her relief or possibly even her own happiness. And if she died, that final emotion, finally reaching a semblance of being content, couldnt be taken away.

and i dont blame her for choosing to go out like that. was i happy? FUCK NO i was sobbing. but it made sense. ik there's a theory she's probably alive. esp cus she's like a main character in league. but from what ive seen/heard? arcane is based on lol lore but not quite. And Jinx is a far more nuanced character in arcane.

i think thats all for now. prepare for more long ass posts bc this show is pure art. and i loved it.

[ant1quar1an]

anti I NEED to hear every single headcanon about the newest connected timeline dust variants.

I just imagine crimson and maroon rogue and a buncha other player OCS coming together with this this can be so much fun!

EEEEEEEEEE! *giddy screaming*

Heheheh. As you wish!

Voidface

His player got entirely fucked up and is now genuinely afraid of him.

Compared to an animal, he would be a cat of sorts (He's hunting you and you know it but you also know that he's willing to toy with you and he will catch you)

Has the third quickest speedrun

Not a big fan of knives

Always kills Grillby last. One last drink with the guy before sending a bone shattering through his SOUL

Addicted to coffee

Semi-nonverbal

Uses shorthands for text ("wyd" "hbu?" "lmao" "lol" "jk" etc)

Handwriting is pretty spaced apart, leans backwards and descends, and is actually usually pretty scratchy

Will sit in Grillby's until the reset happens and everything is rerun again

Murder

U n h i n g e d

Pretty one-track mind and it all leads back to slaughtering things

Laugh gets more manic with each LV he gets

Uses the True Knife

Knows knife tricks that he figured out himself

Has absolutely tossed himself into lethal danger mid-battle for the hell of it

Compared to an animal he's like a cornered, aggressive attack dog that is going to nearly kill itself to take you down with him

Erratic fighting style

Will do almost anything to feel things properly

Actively takes photos of his kills and sends them to the local Dusty Guys group chat to flex on how fast he's going

Current holder of the quickest genocide route speedrun

Really into photography

Cap

Chill

Mostly vibing

Listens to music mid-battle with whoever he's murdering

Seems like a soft guy. Would kill you in a heartbeat

Actively dances along to his music while he's killing people

Probably crouched down and patted his Papyrus on the head before slaughtering him

A different kind of unhinged

His air of silliness does not hide that haunted look in his eyes

If compared to an animal, it'd be a Polar Bear. He's willing to act nicely and gently with his prey, but your death will happen. You can't escape it. And you can't run for long enough to escape him, either

Demi-aroace

It's more unnerving for the monsters to be running from someone who is lazily wandering through the underground, whistling the same song on repeat

Scarf

A tad more nervous than the others (Hypervigilance go brrr)

Guilty about killing Papyrus

Wasn't sure what to do with Papyrus' dust- spread it on the stuff he loved, but not Scarf ("Let's not spread you too thin, eh?")

Justice-orientated instead of broken integrity-orientated like the others

His love language has become acts of service and all he knows how to do is kill

Will Not Hesitate.

Maybe more nervous and slightly more detached than the others but do not doubt the fact that he is a Dust for a reason.

If compared to an animal he would be a hare. He can be cute, yes, but he carries a hint of something much darker- much more unnerving

His touch is the most gentle

Specs

Kind of has a crazy scientist kind of vibe

Works mostly with poisons and explosives

Poisoned Asgore with tea and then tore out his SOUL himself

Uses his bare fucking hands

Loves art. Adores it. Does a hell of a lot of art

Unhinged but in a much smoother, more suave way

Smokes to keep himself calm

Least likely to kill you unless you've pissed him off somehow

Does not care about killing anyone

He's kind of apathetic

Compared to an animal he is a viper slipping through the terrain undetected. He's sneaking up on you and when he strikes, he's going to pack one hell of a punch

Feel free to ask more questions or how they'd react in certain scenarios or whatever!

[sneezysubbyboi]

yes pls recommendations for paid snz content! ive been somewhat interested but not had a clue where to start (as someone who only rly listens to wavs on here)

of course! First off, it depends what your snz preference is (wet n messy, cute n stifled, harsh, etc.) cause tbh, that'll greatly influence your purchase decision more than anything else — but here's a buncha good ones that I like (and most of them are women sooo sorry if you're into guys 😅)

From Clips4sale: Eliza Bea — super cute and sweet alt girl with a large variety of affordable snz clips, I especially love her scenarios and pre-snz face 💕 Princ3ss Kira — beautifully thicc with strong, spraying sneezes to match. Older clips are on the pricier side, so i'd recommend getting the ones on sale on Manyvids. Her "super sick sneezes" is my fav vid of all time. Madonna Summers — gorgeous bombshell with bomb sneezes. Literally, cause they're explosive! Ama Rio — the chhinkni queen, never fails to induce a dizzying fit every time. Alexis Rain — a studio that gets a variety of girls (and a few guys!) to try vials of chhinkni! Their reactions and interactions are actually quite wholesome haha. My favourites are Tylee, Sushii, and Vanessa :) From Manyvids: Blow Mia — has uniquely powerful rapid sneezes, always knocks it out of the park, she even has a free vid up for you to sample! LuluLoe — definitely on the raunchier side, but never have I heard such desperate, breathless sneezes 😩 plus honourable mention to @debachoory 's patreon, you rock 👏 happy exploring! and some tips — on their stores there's filter buttons to search just sneezing (cause they make other content too), and your best bet is finding clips where they use chhinkni if you want the most bang for your buck. Some peeps aren't good at inducing and only sneeze a few times. You'll generally know if the content is good if they actually put effort in their previews/branding/scenario descriptions.

[life-after-laughter]

I love your outfit Harley! ❤🖤 I hope you're going well dear! You looked lovely at the Thanksgiving Red Carpet dessert event. You and Riddler look cute together too.

Awwwww!! Are you a fan of Ghoulie's?? I didn't know he had fans already, that's so cute! Didn't he look like a gothic prince charming in his suit?

Thank you so much, sweetie, you're a peach. The whole thing was fun - Eddie's apparently got friends in the restaurant business I din't know about, and his buddy got a new job or somethin' as a pastry chef and they were doin' this whole schmancy showcase thingy showin' off the things the guy makes, and Eddie got a VIP invite on accounta bein' on good terms.

The whole night was a blast. It was nice, hangin' out with folks that ain't got explosive tempers or nothin', Eddie an' Selina helped me pick up a dress an' a buncha glitzy junk and took me to get all dolled up, a limo came and got us, it was regular princess treatment for yours truly.

It was... nice, y'know? It's been a while since I got to go somewhere in a pretty dress and hang out with friends, and just do something nice.

And not to brag or anything,

But ya girl mighta got a telephone number outta the evening.

[norwoodx]

Pathetic Poetic Lines

I can’t stop mumbling terrible words to myself again! In the back of my mind, the taunting begins. A steady stream, mellifluous, cruel, and unkind. New waves of self-loathing, each thought at a time. 

You’ll lose their attention, hurry, keep it quick! My ugliness makes me sick! My face is distorted and asymmetric. My wants of vanity are egocentric. I want eyes that are bold and electric. I want lips that are plush and eccentric.

My lists for change are numeric— it's barbaric! Fucking rips me apart, makes me hysteric!

I’m smoking weed till I can’t focus, Drinking liquor till my body’s explosive. Doesn’t matter, these thoughts are more corrosive.

Galvanizing and pursuing with muskets. My heart pounds begging for justice! Demanding emancipation from all of us.

I’m starting to understand suicide— shame that’s bottled up, sealed and tied. This truth shouldn’t be spoken; I’m an idiot to try. It would just sound like a buncha pathetic poetic lines.

[energyprison]

future guns in scifi always look kinda silly mostly because like. what are you even supposed to do to make a gun look believably "futuristic." it is a tube with a button on it that makes an explosive charge launch a projectile through the tube. the form and function are pretty well locked in place and its best to have as little extra material on there as possible so most greebles just look silly. if you want a future gun it straight up just has to shoot plasma or something so you can justify a buncha weird shapes on it

So I tried to write a chat fic for cod, I'm not a very good writer so I gave up but I thought maybe someone would think it was funny so here you all go have fun with this mess (let me know if the Spanish is right, I had to use google translate)

Soap created a group chat Added Ghost, added Price, added Gaz, added Alejandro, added Rudy, added Laswell, added Graves, added König

[kfkr1ze]

[002-B02] A Scary Sentai World is too Excessive!

Summary — ✈︎ Akuta confidently announces his concept for their first tour, but the other students are confused by how incoherent the proposal is.

Characters — ✈︎ Akuta, Kiroku, Nanaki, Muneuji, Ushio, Sakujiro

Location: HAMA Tours Meeting Room

Kaede: Umm, what is this…?

Akuta: EHHH!? What’s with that reaction!? No matter how you look at it, that’s clearly our tour concept!

Kaede: R-Right…

Nanaki: This is the concept proposal, right? There’s something like a crab…? Drawn on the corner of it.

Akuta: It’s not “something like a crab”, it’s the Monstrous Ultra Smooth Meat Bun Crab! Stop it guuuys, now I’m worried it’s too vague!

Kiroku: I… like this… drawing…

Ushio: Well this isn’t an art exhibit, so.

Sakujiro: Let us move on from the topic of the art. Rather, the real problem is the content of the proposal.

Akuta: ‘Kayyy, then I’ll get on with my explanation. Let’s turn to page one!

Muneuji: There’s only one sheet of paper.

Akuta: First up is the concept. I wanted to do a heart racing action scene with a buncha fwooms and bwaams! That kinda feeling is fine, right?

And all the guests can be action stars too! You get it? See? Everytime I think about it, I get too excited!

Akuta: That’s why the title is “The Touring Sentai Kankou[1] Rangers!〜 Revenge of the Monstrous Ultra Smooth Meat Bun Crab〜” Opening scene〜!

Ushio: Rangers…?

Muneuji: Now that I think about it, the other day he was making a big deal about us watching some Tokusatsu Sentai series. I believe he bought a subscription?

Akuta: So at Asu High, the HUUUGE Monstrous Ultra Smooth Meat Bun Crab makes his attack! His favorite snack is the brains and flesh of tourists!

Kaede: (This worldview of his is way too excessive…!)

Akuta: He’ll crush the school building! There are explosions! The students and parents are trying to escape. And, when all hope seems lost, someone calls out for help!

And that’s when we, “The Touring Sentai Kankou Rangers”, appear in a flash and save everyone!

I already got our colors down. I’m gonna be Kankou Orange! Kiroku is Purple and Nanaki is Turquoise! Pink is Muneuji and then Ushio is Lime!

Oh right, in the debut scene, when the explosion goes off, the smoke that comes out is gonna be in our five image colors. Like your stereotypical Sentai scene!

So after that, we defeat the Monstrous Ultra Smooth Meat Bun Crab, and then peace will return to Asu High for another day… BUTーー

Kaede: Wait um, before we continue, what’s with the Hishio-don thing right here?

Akuta: The ones we had the other day were SOOO good, so I drew it there as a bonus.

Nanaki: That literally has nothing to do with the concept.

Akuta: Alrighty, I’m continuing on with the explanation!

Akuta: So at the end, we’ll do the BEST LIVE EVER with us rangers and the Monstrous Ultra Smooth Manjuu Crab and then we review aannd that’s the・end!

Well? What’dya think〜!?

Kaede: To summarize… is it fine to say the overall concept is a “Sentai Action”?

Akuta: That’s OKAY!

Nanaki: How long did it take you to think of this?

Akuta: Seconds?

Sakujiro: I believe the fact that you conjured this all up within seconds is somewhat praiseworthy, however… It is quite incoherent.

Akuta: Incoherent! YAYYAYY!!

Kaede: Sakujiro-san, Akuta-kun takes “incoherent” as a compliment…

Sakujiro: How insolent.

Ushio: Its favorite food being brains is too gross so that has to get changed. And why are there so many explosions? Why do you want everything to explode so much? I don’t get the point at all.

Akuta: ‘Cuz explosions are a piece of art〜

Kiroku: ……How will… you make… an explosion…?

Akuta: Isn’t that obvious? Clearly we’ll use the egg!

Muneuji: But it has already returned to the sea.

Kaede: An egg?

Nanaki: Ah uhーー It’s not a regular egg… It’s an egg shaped bomb . We saw something like that on dazzle.

Ushio: It’s just useless anime talk, so don’t worry about it. ‘Cuz we’re all dumb kids.

Kaede: (Even so, I wasn’t expecting a plan that flew this off the rails… I was too careless.)

(I should’ve checked in on him more… Maybe I could’ve caught this earlier on and kept him in check.)

Ushio: So? What’s our team name?

Akuta: I already said it! The Touring Sentai Kankou Rangers!

Ushio: T-That’s so fucking lame… I’m at a loss for words.

Kaede: (This is my responsibility. First, I got to get us out of this mess and get things sortedーー)

Nanaki: …Yeah, there’s no way we can go with this.

Kiroku: ………

Nanaki: First up, there’s no way we can make a gigantic ultra smooth crab. Not just that, but we can’t damage the school…

Akuta: Nonono, we’re not gonna ACTUALLY do it, it’s just an act!

Ushio: First day back and being forced to act in a show like this… Hell no.

Muneuji: Putting the willingness to act aside, will every person who comes to the school enjoy this concept?

People from all age and gender groups are gathering. Why not find a broader concept that they will all enjoy?

Ushio: How can you be sure that no one will get injured from the explosion? We won’t just be outcasted this time, our entire social lives will die.

I don’t think we should be exploding things so casually. For our own sake too.

Kiroku: …I feel like……you might’ve… forgotten……to think about… our budget.

Akuta: Uu……

Nanaki: As a concept, it’s not related to Asu High or HAMA in the first place.

Ushio: Don’t just come up with something on the fly. Take the time to actually think of a better concept.

Akuta: …T-This whole time you’ve all just been criticizing me! Even JJ Park will add a “but” to the end of his criticisms and actually praise people! Praise me more!

Muneuji: I’ve been trying to think of something praiseworthy this entire time, but I have not found anything yet.

Akuta: Whaaat…

Kiroku: ……I think… your drawings… were… really good……

Akuta: ………

Bathroom.

Kaede: A-Akuta-kun…!

(Akuta-kun’s expression looked unusually tense there… Maybe it’s best if we get a bit of fresh air before meeting again.)

ーーEveryone! It’s a bit early, but let’s take a lunch break.

Location: HAMA Tours Office Floor

Kaede: (What are you doing right now, Akuta-kun…)

Nanaki: ………

Kaede: Nanaki-kun, do you know if Akuta-kun’s in the conference room?

Nanaki: Uh… I don’t know.

Kaede: I see… Thanks anyways.

Nanaki: …Yeah.

Kaede: (I’ll just buy a bento box for him downstairs and try calling for him… I hope he cheers up.)

Location: HAMA Tours Back Wharf

Akuta: ………

Nanaki: Whaaat are you spacing out for?

Akuta: Woaooh!? Nanaki, you scared me!

Nanaki: Got you. …Can I sit on this elephant?

Akuta: Go right ahead〜 It’s not like I own it or anything.

Nanaki: …I thought you might be feeling a bit down after what happened earlier. You got criticized pretty badly.

Akuta: …Aah〜

Nanaki: I make music myself, so I can get it a bitーー

Anything you make yourself is like seeing your bare self. It can get scary exposing yourself like that to the public.

But y’know… Even if it’s not a perfect piece, you’ll never get anywhere unless you do expose yourself like that.

We became Ward Mayors in order to start all kinds of new things like that.

There’s bound to be tough spots along the way, and there definitely will be people who criticize you. Actually, it’s the overwhelming majority who do at firstーー

But no matter what, I think to myself, “I have to start somewhere” …It’s the same for you too.

Akuta: Heh.

Nanaki: ?

Akuta: Thank you! Nanaki, you're like some kinda kindness expert. But don’t worry, I’m not depressed at ALL!

In the first place, if people don’t get my good points at all, they’re the ones who are gonna make my charisma go awayーー

So I just gotta say bye bye to those people! Right? Isn’t it simple?

In this world, we have “the freedom to not understand each other.” That’s what my Uncle told me.

Nanaki: ….....

Pff… Hahahaha…! I was just worried for nothing. Of course you’re the stubborn type. How interesting.

Akuta: Buu・uut.

…This time, I don’t wanna say goodbye to you guys. It’s the easy way out, so I don’t wanna do that.

Nanaki: ………

Akuta: Oh, you want some? It’s super good. Kiroku came by earlier to give me some. He didn’t say anything, though.

Nanaki: Baby cookies… It’s very Kiroku-esque huh. Then, I’ll take some. Munch munch…

Akuta: Munch munch… By the way, you’re the one who’s gonna write our song for the Hospitality Live, right Nanaki?

Nanaki: Eh?

Akuta: Your music is literally THE BEST! I always wanted you to be the one who makes it!

Nanaki: Ahー…… Yeah, or wait no, I don’t…really care but… Nah, I have to think about it a bit more.

‘Cuz the truth is, I’m not really making music right now.

Akuta: EH!?? WHY!??

Nanaki: …‘Cuz I… lo…

Nanaki: I… I keep making… Love songs…

Akuta: Hahh〜!?

Nanaki: I wanna stop making them too, but like, I keep getting stuck in this loop, so I’ve been trying to keep my feelings in control, but…

Akuta: Wha〜t? I can’t hear what you mumbling, but we don’t need love songs y’know? Just make normal ones.

Nanaki: I know. Butーー Don’t you have something that you can’t help but think about, no matter if you’re awake or asleep?

Akuta: ………

Nanaki: That’s just what I feel like right now. But I could say the same thing about you…

The concept you came up with was just a mess that was filled with a buncha stuff you liked all over the place, right?

Maybe it’d be a good idea for you to take the idea you think about the most and use it as a base for the concept.

But not like movies or anything. Something a bit more internal, or personalーー

Akuta: Internal… Like what?

Nanaki: Likeーー L-Love troubles, or something…

Kaede: Ah, Akuta-kun and Nanaki-kun, there you are.

Nanaki: Ah……!?

Akuta: Ohh, Sensei!

Nanaki: T-That’s all I wanted to say, so I’m going now! Bye!

Kaede: …Nanaki-kun just left.

Akuta: Yeah. …Hm…

Notes — ✈︎

For "The Touring Sentai Kankou Rangers" He says “Kankou” twice, once in kanji (観光) and once in katakana. It means tourism, so I decided to keep the “Kankou” in katakana as just kankou instead of trying to translate it twice, since afterwards he’s like I’m kankou orange ! For Enstars fans (sorry.) it’s kindaaa how people will say “ryuusei red” instead of “meteor red”

[soullessbullshit]

Melina: Crisis averted! Not a single casualty!

Verandis: Impressive work. How did you prevent them from killing anyone?

Melina: Oh, that was all Cassian.

Fennorian: He's surprisingly effective in a hostage negotiation.

Adusa-daro: What? How??

[a couple hours prior...]

Vampire: IF YOU DON'T SHUT UP, I'M DRAINING EVERYONE IN THIS BUILDING!!

Cassian, hanging around on the porch: Damn, a buncha human civs? I'm fuckin' terrified.

Vampire: I MEAN IT, SMARTASS!!

Cassian, smug as Oblivion: Yeah, I'll bet. Not like you could beat anything tougher, ya twee bitch. You tryna feel all rough and tough and scary? Look at you, pickin' on the little twerps like some big, strong man!

Vampire: YOU-!!

Cassian: I'd say you look like you break your pasta, but I bet you gotta stand on a ladder to spook an eight-year-old into doin' it for ya-!

Vampire: [bashes through the door in a full-body tackle, claws tearing into Cassian in a blind rage]

Vampire, pausing mid-slash: [looks up at the bleeding stump of an elbow where the rest of his limb used to be]

Cassian, halfway into werewolf form: [grins up at the vampire with a severed forearm mangled between his jaws]

Vampire:

Vampire: [looks back at the building]

Fennorian: [sprinting through the door to tend to the hostages]

Melina: [gleefully winding up a throw]

Vampire, watching the explosive rune fly straight at him: Shit.

[currently...]

Cassian, brushing ashes from his rapidly healing burn wounds: Make yourself the most killable thing. Works every time.

Fennorian, scrambling for detergent: Wait, no! The carpet-!
