#lazy paw gang

[down-with-the-mafia]

[nn4nn4stuff]

art request: a alpine skyline nomad playing with, or talking to a lazy paw gang member (cat enemies that steal something of hatbow upon hitting her)

[thesopwithcamel]

A hat in time AU idea: Apocalypse Swap au (or just APswap au, wip).

Background: a sort of ahit swap au but with some Fallout shennanigans in between, this changes the roles of multiple characters while also putting a post apocalyptic spin on Hat Kid's origins as well as aging her up to her species equivalent of 15 years old.

The storyline however is very different as it brings back many cut characters and locations, passes character traits onto new ones and follows a combination of retail and cut content. It also explores Hat Kid's past and the actions leading up to her escape.

Calcite Characters:

Mustache Girl (real name: Jane, sirname unknown) is a local resident of the city of Calcite and an apprentice to Tim the CEO of Time, she mostly shares her canon personality but the trauma with the mafia is mostly removed (as I'm giving it to Bow Kid) due to being sheltered by Tim despite him lossing a Time Piece to the Lazy Paw Mafia Boss.

Bow Kid (real name: Laura Jennings Durr) is another local resident and a victim of the Lazy Paw's brutality as they imprisoned her and murdered her parents, she is probably one of the only denizens actively fighting the Lazy Paw using sabotage. This has led to gaining a few scratches here and there. Following Jane defeating the Lazy Paw boss Laura almost went the same way as retail Mustache girl with only Tim coming in at the last second promising the removal of the lazy paw if she helps Jane stopping her.

Hat Kid (real name: Penny Lesley Kiethman) is a space traveling alien from an unidentified planet escaping on a solar sail generation ship with under a million of her kind, her ship halts near Earth and she awakens from her cryo induced slumber only to find that her pod was the only one to open. She desperately heads down to Terra to find parts to fix her ship but gets fixated by the Time Pieces and she wishes one to fix up and power the reactor. Problem is that Jane won't hand one over...yeah you know where this is going. Following her defeat at Generations and Timelines Penny lays low for a while before saving Jane's life at the Arctic Town.

The Lazy Paw: a cat gang coming from an unidentified location that had decided to take over most of Calcite and basically took over their segmants governing council, they wrapped up warm for Calcites colder enviroment with fur and leather coats and are ruthless towards anyone who pisses them off. Their leader the Lazy Paw Boss was the one that personally killed Laura's parents and gouged out one of her eyes.

Goofy Paw (real name: Josef Fritz Verville) is a member of the Lazy Paw gang, while he is a reliable member he is also a cryptozoologist and a member of a local conspiracy theorist group made up of Lazy Paw members and locals. He is the first one to encounter Penny and was the one who reported to LP Boss about her.

Tim (full name Tim Davis Reginald) the CEO of Time, local somewhat insane person (although Oldster beats him by far), high ranking Timekeeper of the ACTT and a very eccentric individual. He is known for being very carefree but still takes his job seriously, his predessesor told him to not have a melt down. How he had a meltdown over not having a meltdown is beyond me but he wishes to fix it so he sends Jane out to put things right.

Sam the Detective: a detective that specialises in different factors and currently on the payrole of the Lazy Paw to look the other way while they committ the crimes they do, while Sam is somewhat Scummy the Lazy Paw do have his family hostage and he is a good, if somewhat scummy, person.

Oldster: an old senile man living in a dumpster, oldster was once a respected part of town but the Lazy Paw utterly destroyed him both physically, emotionally and financially. He was rendered a paranoid, decrepid old man.

Timekeeper Blu: a relatively experienced Timekeeper and proud of his job, he is a very joyful individual but can sometimes be too serious and even hostile. If someone unfamiliar even touches a Time Piece he can get very defensive. Blu takes Laura under his wing as an apprentice following the events of Generations and Timelines.

Lady Puella: A very experienced Time Keeper rumoured to be older than this current Timeline, Puella is a very strict keeper and is good at first response and at dealing with struggling or troublesome apprentices. She was also a first responder during the events of Arctic Town and following those events takes Penny under arrest and places her in the ACTT's youth reformatory program before taking Penny under her wing as an apprentice.

NEST 2024 + Gatherings Going Forward (again)

Attended my 4th NEST this year! This is just a quick point-form summary as I’m still dropping and wanted a write-up before I fly out this weekend to see my moms!

Perhaps I wore my “tickle me I’m cute!” shirt on Friday- and perhaps it got me pinned and gang tickled by 4 friends UGH- I haven’t been gang tickled since last June which is WILD honestly. Kinda hoping wishing this June it happens again 👀

Learning that it’s okay to let people touch me. 🙄😒 From my past writing “AUNT 2024 + Gatherings Going Forward,” I shared that I’ve denied myself from playing with friends until everything felt perfect, but recognized that I set the bar way too high and that maybe I just fear that “awkward first session” because I’m really awkward with touching and this fetish. At NEST this year I’ve allowed friends I’ve met and connected with at previous gatherings to tickle me in the con-spaces to break that touch barrier in a fun, familiar way for everyone. I also let myself engage in pick-up sessions with friends to get that “awkward first session” out of the way! I had to reassure myself throughout the weekend that it was okay that they were touching me, and they were touching me because they wanted to~.

My nesting partner is choosy about the gatherings he attends as he wants to focus on those he has connected with already, and can find gatherings overwhelming at times. This NEST made me feel similar- I want to continue attending gatherings, and I love meeting new people, though going forward I’m going to focus on regular attendees and friends I know from previous gatherings. There are a lot of regulars and mutuals I would love to get to know better and potentially play with- I’m just really awkward and don’t know how to approach people, and in turn I feel I accidentally give off a closed-off vibe. I would like to be part of my friends’ friend group, I just don’t know how to integrate! NEST going forward, I would love to volunteer and help out more to continue making the gathering the best it can be!

Oh, I had my first Wawa experience! I tried their Caramel Cookies and Cream Frozen Cappuccino, IT WAS SO GOOD, Starbucks Frapps could never. definitely kept me up way past my bedtime! 😋 Also the mascot is a (Canada) Goose because Wawa was originally a dairy farm in Wawa, Pennsylvania, and the Ojibwe word “we’we” means “Snow Goose.” Now I need a Sheets experience~.

I got to try out @ticklingduck's vibrating tickling rods! @mister-ttt and I did record content including them! They are like a small Pursonic (without it stopping after 2 minutes~)! 😏 I also BOUGHT ONE!! 🎉 @ticklingduck's socials: Etsy, Twitter, Tumblr.

Wore my Geurdo Link cosplay on auction night, even though I was not participating in the auction, and I was extremely shy so I just sat in the audience and didn’t really show it off LMAO!! (Still editing the tickle video featuring this cosplay, previews are in the NEST Server and on my OF~).

I’ve had the literal pleasure of forming a play partner dynamic with a local friend, and he has really built up my confidence, self-esteem, and has helped me be more self-sex-positive. It was exciting to carry that sex-positivity into some sessions this weekend, and I learned that I really like being consensually sexually violated by friends.. 🥴💦 don't look at me.

This weekend really validated my growth and boundaries. Finding this gathering somewhat personally hard to navigate because I wasn’t meeting my exact wants (a me-issue, not NEST's), that helped me recognize that I’m not the same person I was at my first NEST and other 2019 gatherings, and that I’m truly growing. I wasn’t able to navigate NEST like I did in 2019, so now I know I’m on the right path and know what I’m exactly looking for.

And finally on the last day of the gathering, I’m sitting in the lobby in my lazy travel fit, not showered, sporty wind-breaker, capris, my glasses, pink paw print socks + sandals of course, and a guy I’m pretty sure was not part of the NEST group asked me if I was “Kyle-“ and there were other men around. I say no, and guy just wanders back to where he came from. Assigned Kyle at NEST. I have not felt gender euphoria in a long time. 🥹

anyway, the end. looking forward to the next gatherings~

𝐀 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐛𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 || 𝐆𝐚𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐤𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐬 𝐱 𝐀𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐧

Summary: in which Gale shaves his beard Word count: 500 Warnings: brief description of Astarion biting Gale but nothing crazy!! A/N: BLOODWEAVE BLOODWEAVE BLOODWEAVE THEM!!! Not beta read sorry gang -_-

Gale absentmindedly ran his fingers along his smooth chin still getting used to his bare jaw.

He yawned, scratching idly at his tummy, his tunic riding up revealing a scandalizing inch of his happy trail. The magus flipped the pancakes he was currently cooking over their camps open fire, his gaze lazily focused on making sure none of the fluffy stacks were burnt.

Gale really didn’t want to shave but he was afraid he might wake to Tara trying to do it herself late in the night- despite the fact she has no pose-able thumbs. really he was left with no choice, it was either face an possible accidental slit throat or begrudgingly do it himself.

“Mornin’ darling~” came Astarion’s lazy voice behind Gale, his slender hands wrapping around the other’s waist, the pale elf’s face buried quickly in Gales shoulder. Astarion’s body pressed close against him, almost as if attempting to mold their bodies into one.

The mage hummed in greeting, taking his pan off the fire and dumping another two pancakes on to his already growing pile.

Before he could start on another batch, a shiver ran down Gales spine when he felt the light prickling of Astarion’s cold canines grazing his bare neck, the feeling entirely unfamiliar without his signature stubble.

It wasn’t uncommon for Astarion to nibble on Gales neck. After returning the crown of Karsus to Mystra, the waterdovian’s blood returned to a “pleasant tasting vintage” were Astarion’s exact words.

Before his fangs could sink into his flesh however- the elf paused, drawing away from their tight embrace.

“Gale…” asked Astarion, his voice shaking. “Where… is your beard…”

“I had it shaved.” Hummed Gale as he poured more batter into his pan, giving Shadowheart a pleasant wave as she walked by the campfire, the selǔnite glaring in response, still only half awake.

Astarion grabbed the sides of Gale’s face and forced him to look at the vampire, completely forgetting the pancakes in process.

“You what. He shouted, moving Gales face side to side to stare at every angle of his jaw as if that’s somehow make the hair grow back instantly.

“My cat was going to shave it if I didn’t do it myself.” Gale shrugged, turning slightly in Astarion’s grasp to flip the pancake in his pan.

Astarion stared at Gale bewilderedly.

“Okay… I’m going to ignore that part but darling…” the pale elf whined, pawing at Gales jaw. “You look so…”

“Handsome?” Asked Gale with a cheeky smile.

“…interesting…” corrected Astarion, still staring wide eyed at the Magus.

After a few more seconds of taking it all in, Astarion huffed, resuming his spot behind Gale, his hands making their way to the other man’s soft stomach, rubbing idly at the skin.

“It’s Fine I guess…” he muttered, burying his face once more into Gale’s neck. “I could… get used to it…”

Gale rolled his eyes at Astarion’s dramatics knowing he didn’t truly mean his harsh words. “I’ll grow it back dear but you’ll have to be the one to deal with Tara.”

shinichiro sano + books + purple

(congratulations on 1k! 💖)

(thank you so much<3!!!!)

shinichiro sano x reader

c: fluff, book store meet cute

“Got any books on bikes?”

Attention pulled away from the book propped open beneath your hand, you slip a bookmark between the pages and glance up. The man standing across from you on the other side of the counter sticks out like a sore thumb amongst the bookshop’s overflowing shelves and kitschy armchairs, the large, lazy feline lounging beside the register lifting her head to appraise his appearance.

Messy black hair flops over his forehead, despite his futile attempt at carding a hand through it as he offers you a lopsided grin, the thumb of his other hand hooked in one of the belt loops of his jeans with a lighter lodged between his fingers. A leather jacket is thrown over one of his shoulders, a few dark smudges breaking up the stark white cotton of his t-shirt and lingering across his knuckles as well. And with that, you’re certain he doesn’t mean bicycles. 

The cat hisses.

He laughs, and he reaches out to pet her, despite the menacing swat of one of her furry, orange paws.

Shinichiro Sano is far softer than he looks.

And he makes a habit of it—coming into the bookshop.

Coming into the bookshop and disrupting all flow of rational thought from your brain, your mind losing focus the moment you hear the now-familiar sound of his bike coming down the busy street, heart fumbling in your chest without fail the moment the rumble of the engine cuts out. 

Shinichiro has to know—that you haven’t the slightest damn clue which of the various books on motorcycles and auto mechanics nestled away in the reference section are the best reads. They’re topics that are entirely out of your depth, those shelves an entire universe away from your favorite well-worn paths in the romance and fantasy aisles. 

But you do the same dance every time—

He smiles, he waves.

He ambles up to the register, busying himself with haplessly trying to win over the cat if you’re occupied with another customer.

(Several cat toys have mysteriously appeared over the past few months.)

And then he vaguely rattles off the name of some book he’s looking for, shooting a boyish grin over his shoulder as he waits for you to come and guide the way like he has no idea where he’s going. Like he doesn’t end up in the same exact aisle every single time he comes in. 

Shinichiro Sano is far softer than he looks, because despite the loud bike he parks out front and the bold tattoos that wind up and down his arms—

—despite the way his heavy black boots scuff against the carpet—

—despite the fact that he disrupts the shop’s pleasant scent of books with the distinct, heavy smell of motor oil—

—despite the fact that you’re more than a little certain at this point that he’s got history with Tokyo’s motorcycle gang scene—

—he opens each book like it’s a precious artifact.

(You’ve found yourself distracted by the sight of his long fingers carefully turning pages more than a few times.)

He wipes his shoes on the little welcome mat at the door.

He pets the cat.

He brings you tea from your favorite café two streets over.

And maybe it’s ridiculous, how you think perhaps you’re a little bit in love with this man already.

—

It’s that goddamn purple book that does it, in the end.

The book’s an eyesore—a thick tome bound in a gaudy shade of purple, the spine embellished with an equally offensive sprawl of lime green text. 

It’s some odd collection of new age poetry, one that you’ve contemplated tossing in the garbage bin time and time again in the five years that you’ve worked at the shop, given that it’s clearly destined to live a life in shelved purgatory. (It would be a merciful sendoff.)

It’s a quiet Sunday afternoon when you spy the book nestled away in the wrong aisle on the wrong shelf, staring at you tauntingly beside an otherwise aesthetically-pleasing row of classics. 

A very high row of classics. 

And naturally, rather than taking the time to fetch a stool, you opt for your tiptoes and outstretched fingers instead, hand coming up empty as you predictably lose your balance and stumble backward—right into something solid.

Someone.

Shinichiro’s far warmer than you expected.

It’s all you can think about as you hear the familiar sound of his hushed laughter behind you, the sound reverberating through his chest.

“And yet you always yell at me for doing the same thing,” he huffs in amusement, sending a shiver jolting down your spine at the intimate feeling of his breath hitting the shell of your ear. 

“The stool is across the store,” you protest, trying and failing to keep your voice steady despite the onslaught of emotion frying the circuit board of your brain at the feeling of his arms wrapping around you.

He’s—

He’s reaching for the book.

One hand outstretched, he asks, “Which one?”

His fingers flutter lazily in the air, like he has all the time in the world.

Like he’s not pressed up against you in an empty aisle, his hair tickling the side of your face as he leans forward. And for once, it’s not the scent of books that pervades your senses as you stand before the shelves, nor is it the whiff motor oil that incessantly clings to him.

It’s the light, pleasant fragrance of detergent that envelopes you, the smell gentle and calm like an early summer breeze. 

(Softer than he looks.)

There’s no use in hiding the hitch in your breath.

“The purple one,” you whisper.

“That’s the ugliest book I’ve ever seen.”

And then you’re laughing.

You’re laughing and his hands are on your shoulders and he’s spinning you around to face him and his smile is so soft and he’s looking at you so intently your heart might just burst and—

“I love it when you laugh.”

And he’s kissing you.

An ugly purple book lies forgotten on the shelf and Shinichiro tenderly takes your face in his hands and kisses you. Again. And again.

And again.

Катя

Седина в бороду - бес в ребро. Иначе не объяснить, с чего верный муж Кати внезапно возжелал поухаживать за Анфисой. Да и мысли его были только о ней. (Gray hair in a beard is a devil in a rib. There is no other way to explain why Katya’s faithful husband suddenly wanted to court Anfisa. And his thoughts were only about her)

Хотя супруга у него тоже красавица, не хуже всяких Анфис. (Although his wife is also a beauty, no worse than any Anfisa)

От греха подальше был он отправлен вместе со своими любимыми питомцами на собачью площадку. (Out of harm's way, he was sent along with his beloved pets to the dog park)

Отличное место, чтобы познакомиться с другими собаками и их хозяевами, хотя еще вопрос, кто в их семье хозяин. Некоторых двуногих псы гоняли по всей территории. (A great place to meet other dogs and their owners, although the question is who is the boss in the family. Some two-legged dogs were chased throughout the territory)

Сашка пытался научить Лероя преодолевать препятствия, но пес то ли трусил, то ли ленился. (Sasha tried to teach Leroy to overcome obstacles, but the dog was either a coward or lazy)

Совсем другое дело Сузи, которая с готовностью прыгала и приносила палочку. (It was a completely different matter for Susie, who readily jumped and brought a wand)

Вот только питомцы не могут заменить детей, а с отъездом Карины в доме стало очень тихо, и Сашка вспомнил о своей мечте завести второго ребенка. Вот только слишком поздно для них. (But pets cannot replace children, and with Karina’s departure the house became very quiet, and Sashka remembered his dream of having a second child. But it's too late for them)

Но годы не мешают супругам насладиться обществом друг друга. Заодно у Сашки мысли о других женщинах улетучились рядом с любимой женой. (But the years do not prevent spouses from enjoying each other’s company. At the same time, Sasha’s thoughts about other women disappeared next to his beloved wife)

А вот у Кати появилось желание устроиться на работу, да не на простую, а связанную с криминалом, спортом и приключениями. (But Katya had a desire to get a job, and not a simple one, but one related to crime, sports and adventure)

Но как только Кате предложили стать уличной торговкой в криминальной банде, она тут же захотела оттуда выйти. Да как у них наглости хватило делать из нее какую-то торговку, да еще уличную! (But as soon as Katya was offered to become a street vendor in a criminal gang, she immediately wanted to get out of there. How they had the audacity to make her into some kind of vendor, and a street one at that!)

Тем временем, Сашка от скуки пытался научить Лероя команде "Дай лапу". (Meanwhile, Sashka, out of boredom, tried to teach Leroy the “Give me your paw” command)

Оставшаяся без при��мотра Сузи, пытаясь избежать тренировок, сбежала из квартиры в надежде найти новых спокойных хозяев. Вот пса Макса хозяева не дрессируют. Так может, Давид заберет и ее к себе? (Left unattended, Susie, trying to avoid training, ran away from the apartment in the hope of finding new calm owners. The owners don’t train the dog Max. So maybe David will take her too?)

Но Сашка нашел Сузи даже на лестничной площадке, а чтобы она больше не убегала, начал обучать ее команде "Ко мне". В общем, пока Карина грызет гранит науки, питомцы вынуждены страдать от излишнего внимания хозяина. (But Sasha found Susie even on the landing, and so that she would no longer run away, he began to teach her the “Come to me” command. In general, while Karina is gnawing on the granite of science, the pets are forced to suffer from excessive attention from the owner)

Why The "Kaz Beating Up The Dregs" Scene In The Show Is Wrong

There is so much I disagreed with in the show and adding this scene from CK is one of the ones that get me angriest. This post is clearly going to criticize decisions the showrunners made and if you don't want to read that, you can skip this post and scroll ahead. And this post is just my opinion, we can differ in opinions, that's alright.

First of all, in the books, this was a chapter in Inej's POV. In the show, Inej wasn't even present. Why is this relevant?

This scene took place right after the bathroom scene. It showed how even if Kaz told her specifically not to follow him, she still did. It's such an important moment in the books when we find out that Kaz knew the entire time that she was there. It shows how he senses her presence (although some may argue that he sensed Inej's absence in the show when he was facing of Pekka Rollins in Episode 4). And it shows their dynamic as partners, they don't leave each other, much less let the other walk to their death, and referencing the show, she watches over him. But this is also affected by the fact that this scene was given less meaning and was less dangerous in the show, which I will touch on later.

This was also a big moment for Kaz and Inej's relationship. At first, Inej says that she would respect Kaz's wishes that she not be seen because they would be looking for any signs of weakness. But when she sees Kaz getting beaten up so badly, her chapter goes:

"She couldn't just watch him die, she wouldn't. They had him down now, heavy boots kicking and stomping at his body. Her knives were in her hands. She'd kill them all. She'd pile the bodies to the rafters for the stadwatch to find... She wanted to scream. To hell with your pride, with the Dregs, with this whole wretched city."

We also got moments like Kaz stealing Inej's line and Kaz and Inej reclaiming their home. But since Inej wasn't there, those details are nonexistent in the show.

My next point has to do with Per Haskell's addition. It doesn't even make sense to add him in. He was supposed to represent the lazy and greedy people in the Barrel who take advantage of people like Kaz. In the books, Haskell betrayed Kaz and turned his gang against him. Haskell who Kaz has done nothing but make him richer. But in the show, Haskell was just an indifferent gang leader, any gang leader wouldn't want to cross Pekka Rollins. But Kaz forces Haskell to give up his gang because he just knew Haskell's gang wasn't successful or strong like how Kaz could make them be. Haskell didn't owe Kaz anything, Kaz just felt like a plain bully in the show. We don't even know if Haskell did anything wrong in the show to deserve that treatment from Kaz, but I guess Kaz in the show doesn't really care about that.

And here is my last point and what I think is the biggest and most awful change that the showrunners chose. And it has to do with Kaz's character.

In the books, this scene was much more dangerous. In the books, Kaz was willing to do whatever it took to save his friends from this mess he put them in (which highly contradicts whatever he was doing in the show). Kaz says:

"But they'd landed in a trap, and if he had to chew his paw off to get them out of it, then that was what he would do."

-> In the show, it seemes as if they took away a huge characterization scene just to show Kaz beating up some men. In the books, Kaz could literally have walked to his death if it was his last effort to rescuing his friends from the trap he led them in. A huge part of Kaz's character is that he is loyal to the people he cares about and he would do everything in his ability to protect them, no matter the cost to him. But that wasn't at all the context in the show.

Something that really first stood out to me was the absence of the younger Dregs like Anika, Roeder, Keeg, and Pim. And of course they wouldn't be in there, the whole Crow Club and The Dregs thing the show has going on messed up everything. But specifically when Kaz says his speech in the books that was adapted to the show:

"'I didn't come looking for friends. And I'm not here for the washed-up cadgers and cowards, or the losers who think the Barrel owes them something for managing to stay alive. I came for the killers. The hard ones. The hungry ones. The people like me. This is my gang... and I'm done taking orders.'"

-> he was talking about the younger Dregs. Not at all the random men he needed for a job in The Dregs Gang in the show. In the books, Inej says they're Kaz's best support, and that is because the younger Dregs like Anika and Pim are a testament to Kaz and how he built the Dregs and their reputation, how he spent his own money to fix up the Slat to make it livable, how he takes in these kids from the street and offers them protection, the one he didn't have and had to make himself. Inej says:

"Behind them, Inej glimpsed a few Dregs who didn't seem to share the excitement—Anika with her crop of yellow hair, wiry Roeder who Per Haskell had suggested Kaz use as his spider, the biggest bruisers Keeg and Pim. They hung back against the wall, exchanging unhappy looks as the others whooped and postured. They're Kaz's best hope for support, she thought. The youngest members of the Dregs, the kids Kaz had brought in and organized, the ones who worked the hardest and took the worst jobs because they were the newest."

->They are the real Dregs. They were even the first ones to defend Kaz. Pim tells Varian to quit it when he was going after Kaz again. And Anika blocks the exit when Haskell tells the Dregs to pull the alarm and alert Pekka that Kaz was there. When Bastian told Kaz he had no friends there, Pim shook his head and crossed his arms and the other younger Dregs bristled. And all because Kaz had done so much for them. They never liked Per Haskell, they knew Kaz was who to thank for, who protected them. And that was such a beautiful moment in the books that shows these kids that Kaz offered protection for were the first to protect and defend him as well. Those are the true Dregs. That is Kaz's gang. And it's really saddening that none of that was shown in the show.

Confession 148... so i'm the anon from confession 38 and i just want to say that i forgot a crucial part in alpine skyline's entire level design. the Lazy Paw Gang. peck the Lazy Paw Gang.

[icouldhyperfixatehim]

BINGO ROUND UP

a GL & a disabled MC: pluto!! we got one gang!! i'm just so pleased that we're making some headway on GL being regularly scheduled as part of their production rotation as it should be <3 i will say that the plot of this one wouldn't be doing it for me if it weren't GL, and whacks of nicholas sparks a bit more than is usually my taste. BUT things change over production, and i'm more than willing to be surprised!! interesting that they're opting for another disabled lead specifically w/blindness. i'm still scared but hopeful about their engagement w disability generally, and i do think it's cool that they're not portioning out intersections to their own shows to be the ~ focal issues ~ . it bodes well i think, and i'm really buzzing to see namtan and film's dynamic.

big shock pairing to make me rub my hands together like a fly: my golden blood come collect your trophy!! also putting a dent on main role for fluke and speculative element series, this has me absolutely fucking roided with anticipation lmao. it looks bananas, and chancey, and like the people making it are determined to do so with fun and camp, which is my favourite way to see a project made. i love that as well as unbranded, fluke has managed to stay role flexible enough that he can slide into this fantasy damsel space, and i'm gagging to see it all. maybe he'll wear something white and billowing and dashed with blood, gmmtv seems to be in the spirit of granting wishes w this one.

there seemed to be some rivals to lovers edged stuff, but not in the flavours i wanted so i left it uncircled. also disappointed by the lack of girl violence...that friend vs friend/school gang series could have been fun if it'd been girls in ripped fishnets with bats but i digress.

2024 for 23.5 is not the series of numbers i wanted to write, and no final trailer. and also barely any milk!! she was only on stage the once and not for something i'm interested in, so i'm chalking that up to tragedy. but she looked fucking smashing today, so i'll just have to fold up her event portrait in a locket or smth

congrats to the enigma fans [weeps in midnight museum]

i'm frustrated by how much leaning is being done on remakes, even just because being tagged in so many people's bingo i see how many cool, original ideas there are out there, and it just makes me gag in corporate to see this laziness. i wanted to watch whatever the gemfourth offering was bc i liked them so much in moonlight chicken, but i'll probably be giving their kieta hatsukoi a miss. i've never seen ossan's love, and getting a last dance with mix was on my list so i'll probably give it a go but i'm still miffed about it

i got monkeys pawed on the fighting and stunts bc none of it (except the camp acrobatics of my golden blood) seems like my flavour. alas alack

and a campy comedic role for my girl jan in the other drama to hit my spec fic box!! just like UMG, peaceful property on sale (not 100% sure on the title) looks like exactly my bag. i'm indifferent to whether it's actually BL, but thrilled that tay will be there. i can't think of anyone better to play the guy that can see ghosts, given his huge irl superstitious dramatics and easy goosing. this show is going to be so fun, and i think i might have even spotted a similar ghost-makeup style to what they used in something in my room? i'm so looking forward to this one, and it's so rude of them to tease me with it in october of all times, and not give it to me immediately.

overall, hits, misses, dodgy singing. thanks to everyone who played bingo with me, you all have beautiful creative minds and i hope anyone who had a bingNO this time gets a better part 2 <33

Savanaclaw monster AU

Up next on our list is an In-depth look and ramblings of the savanaclaw monster boys!

first off is the dorm leader himself, Leona! The great and lazy liontaur.

description: The upper half of his body looks like his normal self, not much is different other than his teeth. His teeth are larger and much more like a lion's with large sharp canines and pointed back teeth made for ripping into meat. The lower half of his body is that of a lion. His hips meld into the neck/made of the male lion's body. The great dark mane covering the taurs “neck”. The claws are sharp but always away and the tail injects cause it’s a hassle to brush at the odd angle Leona would have to be in order to brush it.

In his overblotted state, Leona grows an extra foot and a few drastic changes happen along with most things around him turning to sand. His lower paws become blackened with ink and his main is dripping with the stuff as well, his furry lower half which was once a nice golden yellow look to be like sand and even crumbles and repairs itself over the battle. his hands become inky claws and he lets out deafening roars many times over the battle to try and stun the gang fighting him.

fun fact: usually is found asleep on the floor due to being too long to sleep on a bench. Has to sleep on his front or back due to an awkward taur body. will not hesitate to sit his lower body on the mc to tease them.

Next is Ruggie. The interesting hyena boy. He is a crocotta, a mythical beast from India that was said to lure people away in the late evening by mimicking the sounds of people or hurt animals. Thought it very fitting for his UM to be parallel to the creature's abilities. mimicking others when in his beast form, and making others mimic him when in his normal form.

Description: In his regular form Ruggie looks almost the same as before, just with many spots along his skin, some looking like freckles like on his face, and others looking like strange birthmarks or moles. He has the spotted hyena look on his skin. His teeth are a bit more jagged and crooked due to growing up in a rough area and he has many faded scars along his arms and legs. He also has teardrop-shaped pupils in those dazzling blue eyes. in his beast form, he looks like a normal spotted hyena only way to really tell it's him is the dazzling blue eyes of the hyena. The hyena is larger than most, with especially large and adapt paws and claws. able to mimic any sound it has heard recently.

Fun fact: In both forms, He is fairly guarded. The best way to earn his trust is with food and patience. After a while, he might let you scratch behind his ears where he can't reach easily.

Jack is last here but definitely not least. The werewolf may look scary and intimidating but has a very sweet soft side. during full moons, his grey fur turns a brilliant white and he acts a bit more animalistic. sometimes running on all 4's and sniffing those around him subconsciously before shaking out of it and apologizing gruffly and running off.

description: Jack is still his intimidating self just a lot furrier. His arms legs and face are covered with grey fur. His teeth are more wolf/dog like and his eyes are sharp and bright like a wolfs due to some dark markings around his eyes absorbing light and allowing him to see more on bright days. his fingers end in sharp claws along with his feet. He usually doesn't wear shoes since his feet are tough and he likes the challenge at times. his tail is still the same though so it betrays his gruff exterior when he sees one of his friends. His beast form isn't very different from in-game, just a huge wolf, but in this form, he can talk as the wolf, or at least bark out sounds close to words.

fun fact: Jack on full Moon days prefers to just be in his wolf form since he then doesn't have to be as embarrassed about his instincts being elevated on those days.
