Just thinking about how Kim Whalen went from playing Becky Barnes, a kind pediatric nurse, to a literal eldritch deity in Cinderella’s Castle. And both are so her

Crimson Dawn

For @p1nkcanoe.

Rating: Explicit. Pairing(s): Aeon/Swiss. Dew/Swiss (if you squint). Nothing explicit, literally just some kissing. Featuring: Murder ghouls. Blood. Gore. Violence. Death (Sibling of Sin). Blood Drinking. Angst on Aeon's part. Aeon fucked up and now Dew has to fix it. Dew being annoyed. A whole lot of character development. New Murder Ghoul Lore. Swiss being Swiss. Sunshine shows up for a second. So much blood. Kissing. A little bit of a blood kink (mostly my own). On screen Sibling of Sin murder. Word Count: 3.5k+

It's Aeon's first pack hunt topside. He makes a mistake (or ten).

Dew whistles low and Aeon stumbles to his feet. Turning to look at his packmates. Guilt smeared across his face.

“I didn’t mean to.” The words tumble out. Aeon wrings his hands. He doesn’t know where to look. At the blood all over his hands. At the sharp lines of Dew’s face, at Sunshine, who has broken away from Dew’s side in favor of circling Aeon’s kill. Head tilted. There’s blood and twigs in her copper curls. Dark bruises on her neck no doubt from Mountain’s teeth. Aeon almost asks where everyone else is before he remembers that’s the last thing he should be thinking about. They’re standing at the base of the grand staircase. Right inside the front door. He shudders.

The abbey will be waking up soon. And this?

Dew claps Aeon on his shoulder, boney fingers digging in just a little. It pulls him out of his panic just enough to refocus his eyes on Dew’s face.

“Almost as bad as when Sunny did it,” Dew says with a shrug. Sunshine scoffs somewhere behind Aeon.

“I don’t know, this is pretty bad.”

Read the rest on AO3.

Also tagging @fruitsandcheese because I know how much you love murder ghouls ♥.

Wilford: Kevin! Get me a comb…find some cologne! I want to look my best.

Kevin: That might take some work, Sir.

Wilford: Then snap to it! We’re going to a party.

Kevin: Really? A party on Snowpiercer?

Wilford: That’s right. To celebrate Melanie's return from the dead. As if she's the only one ever to have accomplished that. Ugh!

Kevin: Wow. Okay, that's actually pretty exciting. Hey! You know what? I could teach you all the latest dance steps, Sir. It starts with, like, a quick step shuffle, and then you get really crazy with the hips. Come on, Mr. Wilford, Sir, it’s fun!

Wilford: *ignoring him* Yesss, we’ll let the pretentious Head Engineer have her moment. And then...we’ll kill her!

Kevin: Wait! K-Kill her? Sir, what happened to the party idea?

Wilford: That’s where we’ll kill her. Crush her at the height of her glory!

Kevin: *miserably* And we’re back to the crushing.

Kevin: *on his knees* Sir, I’m begging you please…pleeease, forget the girl, and get a life!

Wilford: Oh, I’ll get a life, Kevin. HERS! *evil laughter*

to be fair to Cain if nobody had ever died before and I didn't know it was possible I would probably also hit my brother over the head with a rock if he was being really annoying

it's extremely critical that you see the photo of the perp walk for luigi mangione as being propaganda. i've seen so many people wave it off and instead fawn over his looks. and trust me, i know it ended up being kind of pathetic and weird - but please don't brush it off as a "modelling opportunity" for him. it's a fucking terrifying message the police are sending.

i want to make a few comparisons here, in case you're not from the US or familiar with why the perp walk thing is something to pay attention to. just to set the groundwork for why this is a purposeful, unusual, and cruel act by the nyc police - for why this is not a common occurrence and for why that matters.

the prosecution alleges the show of force is due to the charge of "terrorism." for comparison, in june 2015, tsarnaev was found guilty for the boston marathon bombing, which killed 3 people and injured hundreds. his actions are considered to be an act of domestic terrorism. i have spent the last hour looking through google for pictures of similar to mangione's perp walk - and so far, i have found zero. i also just do not personally remember a moment like that, despite living in boston at the time.

they allege that luigi is a stone-cold killer who carried out a longterm plan, making him particularly dangerous. again for comparison: in nyc, recently cory martin was found guilty of the killing of brandy odom. the murder was planned and premeditated to steal insurance money. and yet no staged perp walk. why didn't her life matter enough for a "show of force"?

but mangione gets paraded by a veritable army of police officers as if he is a rabid animal. for a single citizen who allegedly killed one other single citizen, the "largest perp walk ever" occurs.

so what is the "strong message" that the mayor and the police were trying to send here? the mayor speaks as if mangione is already convicted of terrorism. there is a very thin number of people who feel threatened by the CEO's death. none of us felt like mangione needs to be under massive armed guard.

the message is that you shouldn't resist. they are trying to "make an example" of him - that if you behave badly and kill a single rich person, you'll be treated as if you killed hundreds of people. you will be treated worse than a man who was found guilty of terrorism. you will be considered guilty without trial. the message is that the rich are a protected class, and you cannot touch them without massive punishment. they are trying to prevent a revolution by showing dominance and force against you.

the message is that the police are a puppet of the wealthy and that the law is not equally applied across class disparity. it is "some are more equal than others." it is "one life is more precious than another."

the show of force wasn't for luigi. it was for us. it was a warning. they are trying to remind us who is really in control.

Have not talked to my brother in 8 years because he went down a sad alt-right pipeline but he just gifted me a yaoi game on Steam for Christmas?? lol

Silly Game Time: I, the Detective, have gathered all the evidence and can conclusively prove that the murderer of rich, old Lord Fumblefrumpton is ... YOU! But the only thing I don't understand is why.

So ... WHY did you poison him, stab him, blugeon him about the head the with one of those sausages the length and weight of a bowling pin, shoot him with a crossbow, push him out a 5½ story window, and run him over with a 2005 Honda Civic?

Hey no, I at best would do one thing. ONE. All that? no way. Not worth the effort. That effort would better be spent making the evidence/body disappear.

While yes I can shoot a crossbow, know how to stab a man, have the strength to push and shove grown men (let alone wield a sausage of all things), and books full of methodologies of poison, this doesn’t feel me. Also I don’t have access to a crossbow or a Honda of any sort right now. My bow is a standard recurve and the string and body base are in separate locations at the moment. I can’t come up with any 4+ story buildings I’ve been in outside a hospital in a while.

Also are we sure it’s a murder? It sounds like the kind of thing where he might have just Rube Goldberged himself, on accident no less.

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.

to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:

kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him

Gaston is such a funny choice for a disney villain. everyone else is a ruthless despot or a dark sorcerer being evil on purpose. and then there's just this guy, the village asshole
