[sigmaleph]

playing ten year old pokemon games and having all sorts of fresh takes like 'they should make all the HMs good not just surf' and 'kind of annoying that soda pop/lemonade are better than super potions but you can't buy them in bulk'

Lobinha se apaixonando pelo esteban pq olha como é lindo o cabelinho loiro e as sardinhas e tao alto POREM ele sendo um bad boy escondido que fode duro ciumento e doido aiiiiiiiii ou qlqr coisa tb pq eu lati alto c esse edit

LINK

Amg esse vídeo me destruiu xeresticamente falando.

Mas sim, tipo- muito sim!! O Esteban é muito aquele homem que você conheceu em uma livraria. Descobriu que estavam vendendo uma edição limitada de O Retrato de Dorian Gray e simplesmente sentiu que não poderia viver sem aquele livro, correu pra livraria mais próxima e quando encontrou o livro percebeu que ele tava na última prateleira. Esteban, que não estava muito longe de você, viu seu esforço humilhante para tentar pegar o livro e então, superando toda a timidez, foi te oferecer ajuda. Ele parou atrás de você e pigarreou até você olhar pra trás com a maior cara de tacho do mundo 😨 o homem parecia um avatar do seu lado, parado e te olhando 🧍🏼 "p-precisa de ajuda?" E você só conseguiu acenar com a cabeça 😧🙂‍↕️. Quando ele pegou o livro, com toda sua cara de pau, você decidiu convidar ele pra tomar um café """"como forma de agradecimento"""" [a verdade, queria tomar muita pirocada daquele loiro sonso enorme que tinha te ajudado hihihi]. Tomaram um café e você se derreteu de amores pelo loirinho coberto de sardinhas que ficava com o rosto todo vermelhinho quando você elogiava ele.

E parabéns 👏👏👏, dois meses depois você tava de quatro na cama, corpo nu e suado, rosto enfiado entre os travesseiros da sua cama enquanto Esteban metia em você e te degradava HORRORES🎀🎀🎀. A pele da sua bunda já estava vermelha pela força que a palma da mão dele atingia a região toda vez que voce não respondia ele. "Agora a perrita não fala?? Não quer que eu te encha de porra??" Ele dizia enquanto agarrava seu cabelo e puxava só pra ter o prazer de ver a bagunça que você tava. "Sim, papi..." a última vogal saiu esticada, sua cabeça estava vazia de tudo, exceto do pensamento do pau enorme esticando o buraquinho quente entre suas pernas. "Papi hm? Que chiquita buena eres." O conjunto de palavras só te fazia gemer cada vez mais. "O papi vai te encher de porra, amor." Quando você viu ele naquela biblioteca definitivamente não esperava a foda selvagem que teria with that blonde man.

Dito isso, minhas últimas palavras são:

[aycief]

last from me for @hoennzine ! these were for the cute little Oops! All Lati@s! doodle collection ! once again, if you missed out on preoders, leftover sales open on Jan. 27 !!

[ID: two digital drawings of Latias and Latios. in the first, the two are cuddling, with their heads resting on one another and wings gently spread out. a soft white light highlights them. in the second they are their shiny palettes, circling around a small star, latias facing upright and latios facing down, with wispy clouds around them. both drawings are on solid white backgrounds. /END ID]

TOA Anniversary Munday

Celebrating TOA and the people who contribute to make our group what it is. Repost, don't reblog. Only fill in what you feel comfortable sharing! Happy anniversary, TOA! Here's to many more years spent together. [Original by Neffi can be found here!]

Name: Ruru

Pronouns: any/all

Birthday (no year): 6/14

Where are you from? What is your time zone? Grew up in the East Coast, currently back living there. EST timezone.

How long is your roleplay experience? Easily 15+ years. I did RP on DeviantArt of all things (and even became a mod of said rp); moved to tumblr RP when it got popular, but then took a break for a few years when tabletop games took interest proper; returned to RP when Cecil and I found TOA.

How were you introduced to roleplaying as a whole? Outside of DeviantArt, I grew up playing a lot of make believe games with friends, which eventually moved to text. But really, dA was the big one that hooked me to RP proper....wild...

How were you introduced to TOA? Cecil was the one who found it? But I was wishing for more tumblr RPs around the time, since discord ones felt too intimidating.

Do you have any pets? Viola! Cute lil cat daughter

What is your favorite time of year and why? (Season, holiday, general period) I like the part of fall where the leaves change colours. Seeing flora change in general is fun for me.

What is your IRL occupation? IT Support; I also do game dev (mainly TTRPG) on the side when I can

Some interests and things you like/enjoy? I like running TTRPG games, drawing, designing and coding spreadsheets. Making improv games on the fly, rules and all. I also like exploring new places, especially when they're local. Picnics on the beach or park are great.

What non-Fire Emblem games do you play? A lot, but the game I just beat is Xenoblade Chronicles. I'm the sole remaining World Flipper fan- I mean, I like JRPGs a lot, so games like LiveALive and Chrono Cross come to mind as well.

Favorite Pokemon type & Pokemon: Bug type. Snom, Grubbin, Pinurchin, Trapinch, pokemon that have the shape (tm) are my favorites. I've always had a soft spot for the Lati duo as well.

Tell us some funfacts and trivia about yourself! I've lived in Japan for a fair bit, and became N5 proficient through that. I'm trying to study for N4. I will also never stop talking about TTRPG - namely that I make games and one of them is Fire Emblem based.

How did you get into Fire Emblem? NO JOKE BUT I first learned of Fire Emblem through some promotional pamphlet that came with Pokemon Sapphire I think??? And then saw them in Smash. Cecil definitely helped me get into it proper.

What Fire Emblem games have you played? Easier to say what I haven't, which is FE1 and FE3 (or their remakes). Only played Echoes, not FE2. The only games I started and never beat are Warriors, Three Hopes, and FE5.

First & Favorite Fire Emblem games: First exposure was one of the GBA, but Awakening was the first I beat proper, I think. My favorite FE games are 4 and 6.

List your 5 favorite Fire Emblem characters across the series! Niamh, Joshua, Hugh, Idunn, Lethe? Those are the first to come to mind that I consistently like.

Who was the first character ever to make you go “ooh I like this one in particular” and why? Can be any context and reason! This would have been so long ago...I liked characters like Chad, Lugh, Ricken, etc because they were the 'small boy who might not be taken seriously' type. Which, given I was a lot younger back then, also treated younger than i was by my family, and starting to realize I don't define my gender neatly, they were important characters to sympathize with.

Any Fire Emblem crushes? 😳 All my crushes are in Tellius LMAO but like. Titania. Nailah. Powerful Women....

If you’ve played (or are familiar with) the following games, who was your first S support? Who would you S support nowadays? - Awakening: Sully; might pick someone like Miriel? - Fates: Tsubaki; idk tbh....maybe him again - Three Houses: Shamir; probably Yuri? - Engage: Yunaka; maybe Kagetsu? [THIS WHOLE THING IS REMINDING ME that im not very attached to S supporting with the protag I GUESS]

Favorite Fire Emblem class? I like the ones where you can fly. Kinshi Knight is one of my favorites for the design and unique combination of flyer and bow.

If you were a Fire Emblem character, what would be your class and stats? Would you be playable? Probably a flier or a strategist type. My luck stat is either way too good or awful, no inbetween. Probably also a furry of some variety.

If you were a Three Houses character, what would be your affiliation? I'm your generic NPC civilian.

If you were an Officers Academy student, what would be your boons, banes and potential budding talent? - Boons - Faith, Riding (me remembering I rode horses as a kid) - Banes - Axes - Budding - Flying, Bows

If you were an Engage character, which nation would you originate from? Probably Firene for being very flowery?

How do you pronounce TOA? 🤔(separate letters, to-ah, other?) I pronounce it toe (the body part) + a (the letter). toe-a.

Current TOA muses: Niamh, Hugh

Past TOA muses? N/A

Who was your first TOA muse? If you no longer have them, can you see yourself picking them up again? Niamh

Do you believe you have a type of character you gravitate towards writing? I like writing characters who appear composed, put together, etc, but are actually definitely not. Their ability to empathize is either super good or they struggle dearly (but are aware of that shortcoming). the more unconventional their gender, identity, etc is, the better.

Do you have characters or types of characters you don’t think you can handle writing, but wish you could? Honestly any character with a sizeable amount of lore. I'd just spend way too much time worrying I interpreted one of their support conversations wrong or don't do the character 'the right way'.

What kind of scenes, situations etc do you believe you enjoy writing the most? I like writing situations where the characters learn a new facet about themselves, or discover a place beyond their wildest dreams.

Do you have any scenario in mind for your muse(s) that gets you thinking “man I hope I get to write this one day”? Maybe something that lets me explore Hugh's past or defines Niamh pre-meeting Cipher crew?

Favorite TOA-related memories? Candy game was fun. I also liked the teamwork and memery I had in BOEL this year.

Present or past tense? I think I write in present so that?

Normal size text, small text, no preference? Normal Text with no trimming because most of my replies are through my phone lmao...

Got any potential muse delusions to share? 😉 Sommie :) Both joking and genuinely serious. I love a small Frienb and i think it would be interesting to dive into the fact that Sommie has been around for a very long time, but realistically I'd probably only play him for a few months. Aside from Sommie, there are a couple of FE6 characters (Lugh, Raigh, Idunn) who could be fun but I like sticking to one muse per game. Constance I think about off and on but she hits my 'has too many supports' and therefore I'd worry about playing right. I still rotate the Three Hopes supports I read though. Maybe someday

[sendinganew]

Lati@s? (Feel free to include both)

In this world you can’t have one without the other. Cause (Latias) and Effect (Latios) are conjoined twins whose combined psychic powers allow them to see the past and the future. Cause is very quiet and shy while Effect is more outgoing. They work together to control their body and spend a lot of their time simply flying around the world.

[hime-bee]

Okay but Bee, CONSIDER (bc I know you were trying to come up with fic ideas for Death Mark so here are some ideas to help you out ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧): Yashiki and Daimon with a much younger reader who thinks they're the sexiest thing alive on two legs and make it VERY obvious that they'd bone those two. And obv the two are VERY flustered with how bold and eager reader and are trying to convince them to go for a guy their age but reader is like "NAH older men are hotter~"

Or Yashiki, Daimon, and Mashita are understandably drained from their jobs and now have to deal with the spirits, so their lovely s/o offers to "take care of" them and properly spoil them so they can sit back and let them do everything <33

Definitely gonna start writing for my favorite tired old men once I finish comms and get my shit together lmaoooo

CONTINUE TO COOK, LATI, CUZ YOU'RE ON POINT FR- I love the older man/younger woman tag so much, I can't get enough of DILF's- I want a DILF so bad and I want that reflected in my writing LMAO

BUT YEAH- I ACTUALLY HAVE AN IDEA FOR YASHIKI, BUT I WON'T SPOIL IT YET 👀👀 You mentioning reader "taking care" of the tired men does give me a bit of an idea for Daimon too... I hope I can follow through on it though 😩

Omg if you do, I'll definitely be looking forward to it- they don't have many fics, so I'm hungry 😳💞

[greenbor]

Poesia di https://www.tumblr.com/s-a-f-e-w-o-r-d--2

So che succede anche a te di piangere... Maledire e ripensare... Ma era inutile... Eravamo come i lati di una moneta... Come le due metà dello stesso pianeta... Ci siamo feriti in tutti i modi... Ci siamo demoliti... Ci siamo bruciati... Scottati e poi smarriti... Ed è questo che fa male... Che non ci dà pace. So che ogni tanto piangi anche tu... Separarsi è stato come abbandonarsi alla morte... Ci siamo lasciati morire... Dicendoci che non sempre si può dare ascolto al cuore... Che era l'unica soluzione possibile.... Ma non potremmo mai perdonarci per questo... Questa colpa rimarrà su di noi per l'eternità.

UN AFRICANO PONE ALCUNE DOMANDE INQUIETANTI SULL’ISLAM

Far eguagliare Cristianità biblica con razzismo verso i neri è in ogni modo assurdo. Dobbiamo ricordare che Mosè, il profeta, sposò una donna africana .

Shulamit nel cantico dei cantici era nera e africana e bellissima. Il Dio della Bibbia odia il razzismo.

Ora quello che mi sconcerta è sapere che i neri nel mondo stanno cadendo così facilmente in quella che credo sia una reale religione razzista: l’Islam.

L'islam odia i neri. Nessun nero entrera' nel paradiso in quanto nero!

Come africano sono anche molto sconcertato dalla mancanza di ricerca storica equilibrata fatta dai neri riguardo agli africani.

Sappiamo che nel Nord Africa l’intera regione Sahariana del Marocco, della Libia, dell’Algeria e dall’Egitto fino al Sudan e all’Etiopia era cristiana prima che l’Islam arrivasse e distruggesse le chiese locali. Perché non sentiamo parlare di questo nella storia?

E consideriamo questo: l’Africa ha dato origine a grandi pensatori come Agostino da Hippo (Algeria), Clemente e Anastasio d’Egitto e Tertulliano di Cartagine (Tunisia), mentre l’Etiopia ha avuto la prima chiesa africana totalmente indipendente dall’Europa (Atti 8).

Trovo infatti molto interessante che la chiesa africana sia stata costituita prima di quanto non lo sia stata la chiesa in Gran Bretagna, in Canada, negli Stati Uniti, in Spagna, etc. Così, perché non sentiamo parlare di questa chiesa africana? E perché non vediamo tracce di questa oggi?

La storia del Sudan è un ottimo esempio. Prima dell’invasione musulmana del 1275 d.C. operata dall’islamico Mamluks d’Egitto, il Sudan aveva tre mini stati cristiani chiamati: NOBATIA, nel Nord, la cui capitale era Qustul. MAKURIA, la cui capitale era la vecchia Dondola. ALODIA, o ALWA, la cui capitale era Soba.

Queste tre regioni cristiane dal 300 d.C. al 1500 d.C. avevano la loro propria lingua scritta, avevano grandi centri di apprendimento, di commercio internazionale con l’Egitto, l’Etiopia e altri stati del Medio Oriente e inviavano missionari negli altri stati africani (vedi K. Milhasowski, FARAS, vol. 2, Poland 1965 per una documentazione storica e archeologica maggiore di questi stati).

Ma tutto questo fu distrutto dagli invasori musulmani nel 1295 d.C. non dai colonizzatori europei! Lo stesso tipo di distruzione massiccia

successe in tutta l’Africa, ma mai abbiamo sentito attribuire la responsabilità ai musulmani. Perché?

E non è finita... Nel 1990 il Sudan, nel Nord-Est dell’Africa ha subito la guerra gihad musulmana durante la quale migliaia di cristiani e non credenti sono morti per crocifissione o hanno subito l’amputazione di una mano e di un piede a lati opposti. E’ solo accidentale che troviamo nel Corano, Sura 5:33, la menzione di questa pratica?

UNA DOMANDA INQUIETANTE CHE RIGUARDA LO SCHIAVISMO MUSULMANO

E questo mi porta a fare delle considerazioni a proposito della schiavitù. I musulmani dicono che è solo un fenomeno cristiano.

Mentre l’Impero Britannico aboliva la schiavitù sotto la pressione di cristiani britannici come David Livingston e William Wilbeforce, i musulmani arabi schiavizzavano gli africani (i.e. seguendo la promessa di Allah riguardante “i prigionieri che la tua giusta mano possiede” dalla Sura 4:3). Non hai letto a proposito dell’isola di Zanzibar e Pembe nell’Africa Orientale durante il XIX secolo?

Oppure non hai mai chiesto perché gli stati musulmani non sono mai stati coinvolti nel movimento per l’abolizione della schiavitù?

Mentre gli europei erano impegnati con la tratta degli schiavi per poche centinaia di anni, l’esistenza del traffico di schiavi africani era stata ben solidificata già mille anni prima.

L’affermazione musulmana che attribuisce l’intera colpa per l’invenzione e la pratica della schiavitù dei neri alle porte dell’Europa cristiana è semplicemente non attendibile. Entrambe le società greca e romana erano state schiaviste: per la maggior parte i loro schiavi erano caucasici. Infatti la parola schiavo deriva da'' slavo''. Robert Hughes nel suo saggio “The Traying of America” apparso sul Time Magazine il 3 febbraio 1992 corregge questa falsa affermazione quando dice:

“La tratta degli schiavi, così come il mercato nero, era una invenzione araba sviluppata dai commercianti con la collaborazione appassionata dei neri africani. Fu istituzionalizzata con la più implacabile brutalità secoli prima che l’uomo bianco apparisse nel continente africano e continuo per lungo tempo dopo che il mercato di schiavi in Nord Africa era stato definitivamente annientato... Nulla negli scritti del profeta (Maometto) vieta lo schiavismo, per questo divenne un business dominato dagli arabi. E il traffico di schiavi non sarebbe esistito senza la collaborazione di stati tribali dell’Africa, edificati sulla scorta di prigionieri generati dalle loro implacabili guerre. L’immagine promulgata dalle fictions moderne come Roots, radici, in cui degli schiavisti bianchi irrompono con coltellacci e moschetti nella tranquilla vita dei villaggi africani, è molto lontana dalla verità storica. Un sistema di marketing fu mantenuto sul posto per secoli e la sua scorta fu controllata dagli africani. Non svanì neppure con l’abolizione.

Il mercato di schiavi che riforniva gli Emirati Arabi era ancora operante a Djibouti nel 1950 e sino al 1960 la tratta degli schiavi era rigogliosa in Mauritania e in Sudan. Ci sono ancora cronache di traffici di schiavi nel Nord della Nigeria, Ruanda e Niger.”

I musulmani sostengono che il cristiano occidentale spera di controllare l’Africa. Ora, perché a noi africani non deve piacere “la cultura della Coca-Cola” dell’Occidente, ma dobbiamo essere obbligati a vestirci con gli abiti arabi del VII secolo da quando l’Islam ha preso piede? Cosa c’è che non va nei miei bei abiti africani? E perché i musulmani neri dell’Africa devono pregare rivolti verso una città saudità: la Mecca? Perché non rivolti verso una città locale come Nairobi o Lusaka etc. Chi è che domina? Io pensavo che Dio fosse ovunque e che colui che prega dovesse rivolgersi verso di Lui che vive nel cielo sopra la terra. Ricorda, Dio, la verità, ha detto una volta: “Voi siete di quaggiù, Io sono di lassù.”

Inoltre perché ci è richiesto di leggere la parola di Dio e di parlargli solo in arabo? Dio non è forse capace di capire il mio dialetto africano? Grazie a Dio oggi la Sacra Bibbia è tradotta in più di 2000 lingue parlate nel mondo, perché io so che il mio Dio è capace di parlare ogni lingua. Questo non è un problema per Lui.

CONCLUSIONE

La lettera è stata scritta per amore, amore per la verità anche quando ferisce. La Bibbia ci dice che noi africani abbiamo una grandissima eredità che a volte nella storia ci è stata rubata. Dio è il nostro Creatore e crede in noi. Dopo tutto scelse Adamo ed Eva per essere i primi genitori degli africani.

Dio ha anche usato l’Africa per altri scopi, come permettere all’Egitto di essere un rifugio per gli ebrei al tempo di Giuseppe (Genesi 39-50).

L’Etiopia, altro stato africano, ha posseduto la Bibbia nella sua propria lingua per molti secoli, anche prima che l’Islam nascesse.

Ci è detto a proposito del Regno dei cieli futuro: “Molte nazioni sono qui,” inclusi gli africani (Apocalisse 21:24).

Diversamente dal Dio del Corano Dio non ordinò mai ad alcun cristiano di uccidere per Lui o di prendere “i prigionieri che la tua mano destra possiede”. Ad ognuno è stata data la possibilità di sceglierLo o rifiutarLo. Dio ci ha dato il libero arbitrio, non siamo sottomessi a Lui come nell'islam!!

Attraverso tutta la Bibbia troviamo che Dio salva tutti coloro che credono nel Suo nome . Questo include l’Etiopia di Geremia 38-40 e l’Etiopia e oggi include me e te.

Ora che io ho posto le mie domande, tu poni le tue. Chi mi ha aiutato maggiormente come africano: l’Islam o il Cristianesimo? Devi scegliere saggiamente perché la tua vita dipende da questo.

Pokémon headcanon time:

Amongst Latios and Latias herds, the latter outnumber the former.

There's a reason:

Latias are the ones who hang back to deter any potential predators, whilst the Latios can Take the Kids and Run.

It's also why they have such distinctive colours and a particular stat spread:

Latias are bright red to divert the attention of anything trying to prey on them, whilst Latios are blue to better blend in with the sky.

Likewise, Latias have better defensive stats so they can overwhelm anything trying to eat/attack the herd through attrition and sheer numbers. Latios are more frail but hit harder because they're the Absolute Last Resort, should the females of the herd be unable to deter their attacker(s).

Thoughts?

(I might also have a go at designing a baby Lati, too.)

[g0dtier]

the list that makes me and @dentist-brainsurgeon mortal enemies from now on i guess

extremely lengthy explanations under the cut:

i actually think the S+A tier speak for themselves?

S tier: the goats. im aware its full of third versions but they just happen to be extremely good and added some insane shit to already solid base games (ok diamond and pearl werent solid but the foundation was there). replayability is insane for these.

A tier: the Oh Fuck Yeah games. not in any particular order actually. hgss is absolutely the best remake of all, only held back by the few inherent flaws of the Johto region and by not emulating Crystal enough. as much as i like bw, reverting back to only one region of pokemon never sat right by me, but it's been a while since ive played it, and nowadays i make much more of an effort to try out all new mons. so i could change my mind on this.

i liked usum more than sun/moon, if only for the post game. replayability isnt as high because of the cutscenes every 3 steps, and rotom dex is annoying as shit. aside from that, insanely solid story & postgame imo. red/blue and gold/silver are brimming with weird places in their regions and are chock full of in game lore and legends, which i really like. the ruins of alph & pokemon tower are some of the best locations theyve ever made imo

B tier is the "good but couldve been better" tier. lets go is insane for shiny hunting, but it stops at that imo. the new rival is garbo. sun and moon are good, but the postgame + alola in general is just lacking enough in these games that they dont reach A tier for me. loveeed the island challenges tho. alola itself has just such a good vibe. you really feel like its about community rather than competition. legends arceus couldve been insanely good, but i have never felt as ripped out of a pokemon game as i did when i walked through that cave in the coronet region and started seeing stray pixels around my character. which wasnt a one time thing btw this happens to anyones game & every time as far as ive seen. its gonna sound dramatic but this combined with other graphics glitches made it so clear i was playing a game that it just took me out of the adventure entirely. this is where the graphics glitches really started, and they havent stopped since.

C tier: yellow is just kinda there? i dont care for starter pikachu. i want to, but it gets killed when breathed at, so. idk. the gimmick doesnt work that well for me. sword and shield introduced some insane mons that i love and i want to call it solid real bad, but the story was hot garbage even for pokemon standards, and while the wild area was a great idea, the execution was lacking & because what i assume is a time crunch, the towns were boring as shit as well. diamond & pearl are mediocre to bad, with a great story and mediocre to bad execution, and i shouldve put oras in the :( tier, but the postgame is worth it.

actually im gonna rant about oras. i was so hyped for it but, just, ugh. if youre gonna turn a 2d vague not-specified-what-a-character-is-doing-or-feeling player character to 3d, at least do it correctly. 2d sprites where someone can fill in the blanks not seen on screen but hinted at in text (ie expressions, actions like handing someone something) work infinitely better than 3d sprites who show it badly. also still suffers from the desaturation curse that the 3ds games suffer from. postgame was dope, though. shame the mega latis are ugly as shit.

:( tier: garbage, im so sorry. SV's only redeeming factor is the area zero story. there is nothing else in the game that held my attention. fuck the star team, fuck the big pokemon quests, fuck the towns where you cant talk to anyone or find anything interesting or walk into a house and where every shop looks the game. fuck stores not even having an interior anymore. fuck this larger but emptier and stripped down world full of graphical glitches. fuck the weak ass gyms, fuck geeta, and fuck terrastalizing most of all. i will die for Koraidon & the professor fight fucking ruled but that's all the game had to it for me. do any of yall remember the gym leaders besides like, iono and the snowboard man? no you dont, stop lying to me. gen I put more life into lavender town by making a npc reference some ghost hand on your shoulder than SV does for any town, and they only had black and white 32mb cartridges or whatever to work with. for fucking shame gamefreak. give your devs some time to make a halfway functioning game.

firered and leafgreen do nothing new. i will not discuss the sevii islands. what the fuck even was that. boring. same with brilliant diamond and shining pearl. theyre lower than diamond and pearl because why the fuck did they not decide to remake platinum. what the hell was their damage. seriously platinum was RIGHT there. i caught a full odds shiny ghastly in that game and i still dont care about it.

X&Y suffers from. everything.
