#it was fun to think about

[bananadramaaa]

Hi, good evening! (Or at least here where I am it's evening, I don't know what time you'll read this. 😿)

I wanted to ask you, what do you think Alastor and Mimzy would have been like if they hadn't died? Like decades later.

Would Alastor continue his job as a radio announcer? I wonder if the technological innovation at the time would have affected their lives.

Do you think Mimzy would continue her petty thefts and crimes? Or if she would look for a new life.

Anyway, sorry for the many questions. They were just questions that popped into my head out of nowhere. 🕊️

I love your art, it's really cool that someone is delving into the history of both of them.

Don't overwhelm yourself!

Hi! :3 No redemption arc for them, that's for sure. They are the same bastards but older.

I think Alastor would continue his radio career. After all, we saw in the show that he's veeeery passionate about that. With all his charisma, I'm certain that he got that popularity and status to be recognizable on the streets (as much as he could anyway). Still, to me, it seems that he would be just as skeptical of other new types of media so dedicated to his niche.

Oh, Mimzy absolutely would! That's her thing, after all. Why stop all of a sudden? It's funny to me to think that she might have charmed some naive rich guy into eventually becoming his wife, and then that naive rich guy died under ✨mysterious circumstances✨, and all his goodies went to Mimzy. She will definitely cry at certain moments and say how much she misses her sweet husband and how unfair life is. To be in that Grieving Widow of a Rich Guy role for a while, just for her entertainment mostly.

new headcanon now: alice gets cold easily and cries inside a lil when she and FG cuddle. she is freezing but doesnt have the heart to separate herself from hugging her boyfriend

AAaaaaaaahhhh ;<;

Oh no, poor Alice, just enduring it cause she just wants to be close to him :( Meanwhile Fool's Gold is enjoying how warm and soft she is, but doesn't realise he's basically stealing all her warmth. Then he notices how she is curled up and shaking, and it hits him. He's neither warm nor soft nor good to hold. He feels bad that he cannot make her comfortable like when he's in his survivor form. Why should she have to compromise her comfort for his? Perhaps they should save their cuddle sessions for when he's out of his hunter form? Can he even make that decision while he's in the hunter mindset?

For now he brings a hoard of blankets and pillows and drops them by a fireplace. He brings Alice to the pillow nest and wraps her in a blanket. Before he tucks her up to his chest, he uses some pillows to pad between them. Every once in a while throughout the evening, he asks her if she is comfortable. No matter how many times she reassures him that she is, he can't help but worry. Alice appreciates what Norton has done for her, but she still stands by the fact that spending time with him is what really matters, no matter if she is cold or not.

Did Night Swan favor Mihaly compared to the others at all in Tainted City/Mirrored Walls canon? Was there any relationship between them? I can’t stop thinking about that scene with them in the first chapter of MW when they bury the pin- really intrigued how that setup will pay off! Did/does (If she’s alive??) she view them differently than the others because of some connection, or their raw power? You seem to be setting them up as one of the more powerful of the just dancers, so just wondering if NS saw that too.

I’ve loved both stories, and you do such a great job of balancing so many characters (like them!) while keeping the Wanderrose focus!

Thank you!!! And this is a very interesting question 😈

When they were all Night Swan’s generals during Tainted City, NS didn’t really have much of a “favorite”, per se. Wanderlust was the one she was most excited to have gotten her hands on and she did have some kind of affection for Sara because Earth girls(I think if she were to give up on getting Jack, she might have taken on Sara as her new heir), but other than that they were mostly all on the same level. They each had a specialty she’d exploit for different purposes.

Wanderlust was mostly for political power. When you’re trying to take over the world it’s great to have the prince on your side telling everyone their queen sucks and they should bow down to you. Sara was the unhinged wildcard one. I got big Quinn vibes when I wrote her. There’s just something so fun about “peppy girly girl who will cut you while smiling and giggling like a maniac the entire time”. She’s scary. Brezziana was the brawn, she just wanted to punch things and break bones. Mihaly was the brains. They have the most knowledge of the flow and could strategize the best.

Beyond that, NS mostly saw them all as equal stepping stones in getting to her son. She initially thought taking all of them would make Jack surrender and join her, but when that didn’t work she realized they’d make great weapons anyway.

TLDR in Tainted City, no, I didn’t really intend for there to be more of a connection with Mihaly to NS than there was with any of the others. When it comes to Mirrored Walls, on the other hand, that story’s not over yet. So all I can say on that end is wait and see 🤫

favorite word?

Just one?

Fuck.

It's cliche but so versatile.

So is cunt.

But I don't get the opportunity to use it as much.

What's a thing in your life that you think, in a different world, on a different path, could be your villain origin?

This took me a bit of thinking but I think I’ve got it.

Ok so like, my dad has a penchant for pirating —everything he watches is pirated. I knew that pirating was stealing, but I made the connection that stealing is only good if you do it to big corporations. So I’m thinking, if I hadn’t made that connection, I would be a petty cat burglar, like a cat woman adjacent villain. Y’know what? Maybe I should kick of an anti-hero arc where I steal from big corporations, but keep it all to myself, and then have a change of heart and spread my collected wealth with the people the corporations hurt.

Now if you excuse me, I have a heist to plan😈

Ft x TW: NRC boys' type of fairy tail magic

Ohohoho what a can of worms to open! I have considered the FT in TW au far more than the TW in FT au, but this changes now lol.

Obviously both sources are fairly soft with their magic, but it's true that FT specializes far more, either by choice or by affinity. Soooo time to spitball around a bit. (As I try really hard not to get too deep into backstories and make this more complicated than it has to be.)

Riddle: Some sort of nullification/wave magic—essentially like his signature spell. Riddle probably tries to be an all-around mage nonetheless, but it comes back around to nullification nonetheless.

Trey: Enchantment. He'll claim up and down that it's just minor tricks and little buffs, but this dude can probably rewrite a human being if he wants to. Though he would be fantastic support. Full mom mode, for sure.

Deuce: Full Counter. Yes I am aware this is not an explicit Fairy Tail magic. But I call him my Full Counter child way too often for me to get it out of my head.

Ace: How far he goes with it is up for debate, but card magic. It starts with some simple tricks, and then his Quick Learning kicks in and Ace can do a variety of things given he has access to the card for it.

Cater: Solid script magic. Maybe some other script magic too, though Cater would downplay how much he could do with it, but dude has a way with words alright.

Leona: He would be the type to know a variety of magic, enough to keep people guessing about his limits, but his main developed magic would be crush magic, much to the consternation of everyone. (Himself included sometimes.)

Ruggie: He could totally have something funky like Figure Eyes or some sort of straight forward puppeteer magic, but I think his overall magic would be speed. Ruggie go noom.

Jack: Transformation magic, so he can turn into a wolf and whatever other animal he desires. Not necessarily seith magic, but I do think he would focus on animals because he's just like that.

Azul: Dude would totally be a celestial spirit mage. It's all about collecting minions and getting them to do the heavy lifting, after all. That said he's definitely a Contract Guy so he would be fair about things. (And he would get heckled by the spirits sometimes too; a true give and take relationship right there.)

Jade: Telepathy magic that is definitely just used for good ol consensual communication. Yep. Not like Jade can eavesdrop on people's minds or anything. :)

Floyd: Reflector magic of some sort. Can't hit him because your magic goes wonky. Oh no, you gotta fist fight instead. What a nightmare. (For you.)

Kalim: I honestly can't decide if he'll be a water mage, because of his UM, or if he'll do something completely left-field, like dancer magic, because he is a fun guy and a good bean like that.

Jamil: He would certainly be a jack-of-all-trades type, but mostly an air/wind mage. Within that sphere, Jamil has a lot going on: healing magic, some purification, transportation, ripping the air out of your lungs, enhanced hearing, invisibility—all the useful stuff. He probably knows some charm magic on the side, too, but that's a surprise tool for later.

Vil: Poison magic because I think it would be hilarious. He's equally very proud of his very potent poison and also distressed because it's such a volatile magic and everyone looks at him *like that.* Vil would be great at making elixirs and antidotes too though.

Rook: If anyone would have some sort of take-over magic, it would be Rook. It's the ultimate appreciation of life if you ask him—as well as the ultimate hunt. He would probably deal mostly with beasts, but with just enough other types of transformations that it makes people wonder. How exactly Rook acquires these take-overs is up to the imagination.

Epel: Make-magic. I'm not 100% sure on the type—I think some sort of glass/crystal, maybe—but his amazing carving skills definitely strike me as good make-magic material. Plus he's a creative little fella that would definitely whack people with a comically large hammer given the chance.

Idia: He'd be the guy to naturally develop seith magic against his explicit will, but that's okay because he never really uses it. (Except, perhaps, for Ortho...) Idia would focus on magic tech and developing items, but if his extremely sentient constructs happen to house some souls because he's a bleeding heart after all, then nobody really has to know.

Ortho: Archive magic. Because it's the internet. Tbh I don't really get archive magic in the context of FT's world all that well, but nonetheless, I think Ortho would be able to do it. It's all about running analysis and being the bestest support. (That said, Ortho would probably be casually good at some sort of light/energy magic on the side; for the tactical nuke.) Provided Ortho is not, you know, a soul in a construct.

Malleus: He's gotta be a dragon slayer. Them's the facts. That said, I am somewhat undecided on the type. I lean towards lightning, because the lightning motif is pretty prevalent, but Malleus is also very fond of his fire breath. A green fire dragon slayer, perhaps? Or he would be something super Extra and Edgy, like "tempest dragon slayer" or something, that is mad OP and can do large scale atmospheric stuff and weather. Dude's a beast, after all.

Lilia: Something spatial focused—like teleporting or territory. Well, he would probably use it mostly for teleporting but he can actually do some super insane stuff if things get serious.

Silver: Like his dad, he's also a spatial mage, but for requip magic. Silver would totally play the Erza-card and focus on weapons and armor and such.

Sebek: He would have the type of sound magic that makes your eardrums burst, and Sebek would be sooo effective with it. Maybe he could be a speed type on the side too, as a treat.

Grim: My dude would be an Exceed that stubborns his way into learning fire magic, even if it's super basic.

Is there one piece of media you just couldn't get into, that you truly wish you could?

I’m definitely telling on myself here and I accept people’s judgement but…

Bad Buddy

I watched the whole series and I agree that it is really good and well done in just about every aspect. Like legitimately I have nothing bad to say about the series. I just couldn’t get into it.

I wish I loved it as much as a lot of bl fans do because again, I do think it is really well done and a good bl, but I just don’t. I guess I just didn’t vibe with it. It took me way longer to finish than it takes me for most bls. I can usually finish a series in a week or two (depending on how much free time I get during my work week) but it took me almost 4 months to finish.

I got to the end and went, that’s it?

Maybe it’s a case of it just being so hyped that I was a bit let down but I’m not sure. I’ll try to rewatch it in the future and see if I end up liking it more on the second go around but yeah for now my answer is Bad Buddy.

Especially since for the most part, if I’m not into something, I’m totally fine with it. I mostly try to stick to what I do like and very rarely wish I could have gotten into something that I didn’t end up enjoying. This is really the only thing I can think of.

I really wanted to love it but I just don’t.

lbr he doesnt stand a chance against a real clownoisseur

[crimsonshadesblog]

What happened if someone were to give Almost Siete Valentine's chocolate?

"What, for me?

"Are you sure?

"...Well, okay then.

"Thanks."

He might give it a quick look before sliding it in his pocket.

"What, you want me to eat it now? Let's not get greedy, okay?"

...And then he forgets about it for several weeks until he's either

a) running into Threo/ Fif/ both of them and they sniff it out, upon which he hands it over to them instead

or

b) he finds it in his pocket, vaguely remembers where he got it, gives it a nibble to figure out if it's safe to eat and then eat it and move on with his day.

If your paths cross again, he's not going to comment on this any more, regardless of which event transpired.

If, through some miracle, you bump into him on White Day, he's going to sigh dramatically about it, but buy you a pack of cookies or something as an obligation gift, looking very eager to get this whole thing over and done with already (but still refusing to just not get you a return gift, so make of that what you will).

If your chance White Day encounter happens in the wilds, he's going to share some of his rations and, depending on how out of your depth you look, might accompany you to the nearest settlement. Don't expect him to make conversation though.

People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.

For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.

The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.

So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.

Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.

when I was a kid for some reason I thought Lola Bunny's last name was "Rabbit" and that she was actually Jessica and Roger's daughter. And the reason she wasn't in the original Loony Tunes is just that she wasn't born yet

I mean can you blame me. Look them and look at her. She's got a good blend of both of their features.
