#least serious police dog I've ever met

[mod2amaryllis]

he's a cop but i like him

[king-magppi]

PLEASE tell us more about the camper parents/guardians, they have so much personality already but I'm curious as to your thoughts on them!!!

OK SO. Here's a little info on some of the pairs! I based some of their backstories and "parenting" on how their children behave in Psychonauts 1 and on what little insight into the campers' home-lives we are given by their Campster pages if any at all (there's a web archive link to it on the Ps wiki when you look for "Campster" if you ever wanna check them out! Lots of interesting stuff on there! I've also tried to add it here!). They don't all have names yet, but soon enough they will!

⚠️ALSO! Before we start: a quick content warning for mentions of child abuse, alcoholism, and neglect. Not all of these kids live happy lives.⚠️

The Canolas: Don Canola and his wife homeschool Maloof and get him private tutoring in the subjects he needs help in. They're actually one of the more stable families of the bunch despite being a crime family.

Ms. Foote: Her and her Ex-husband share custody of Clem. Their relationship is extremely rocky and the only reason he even gets to see his son is because of the intense fear she has of him. She finds it hard to have a relationship with her son because of his unwillingness to show interest in anything at home. She tries her best to indulge in anything Clem seems to enjoy, but she feels like she barely knows him.

The Phages: Ms Phage is a widow and now single mother to Milka Phage. Her husband was an alcoholic that stormed off after an argument over his addiction one day and just never came home. The police found his body with several stab wounds under a bridge somewhere days later. After this death, Ms Phage went into a severe depression. During this time, she would become irritable when she saw her daughter and told her to "dissappear" because she couldn't stand to look at her (she looks a lot like her dad). Milka became so good at disappearing on command that sometimes her mom just straight up forgot she was there. During these times, Milka would help herself to whatever was in the fridge and hang around for however long she'd like. Well, at least her cat could see her.

Ms. Snagrash: The single mother to Crystal (never married). She hasn't gotten the memo that she can't go out drinking and partying all day anymore if she's a mom. Because of this mindset, she sees Crystal as a burden and make sure she knows that. She's never had Crystal in a stable environment and is always with some new guy she more than likely wants to leech money from.

The Bulgakovs: Mr. and Mrs. Bulgakov are Mikhail's parents! They live in Kazan, Russia, but sent little Misha over just so he can make some friends over in The States! Mr Bulgakov looks stern and serious, but enjoys a good bear fight. Mrs Bulgakov wishes the boys would get some different, more productive interests like carpentry or archery or something...

The Tripes: Mr and Mrs Tripe love to tell Vernon stories! They encourage him to make his own and think he'll make a great author one day (with A LOT of practice, of course). Sometimes, they'll tell Vernon a story, and he'll try to tell the same one to kids at his school but with HIM as the main character. They have an old little dog named "Lady" that Vernon likes to take on walks.

Ms. Fir: She is the single mother of Elton who works at a brothel by the seaside (this is also where she met his father). While she isn't with her son 24/7, she still makes an effort to provide what she can for him in their situation. Elton spends most of his time down by the docks talking to the marine life in the sea.

The Hedgemice: Mr and Mrs Hedgemouse are the parents to Quentin Hedgemouse! They are probably one of the most loving and supportive pairs in this bunch! Mr Hedgemouse used to be in a band himself in highschool (it wasn't very good or well known, but he had fun!) and thinks it's great Quentin's got one too! He often jokes about trying to join "The Levitators". Nowadays he works as a simple book shop clerk. Mrs Hedgemouse is a stay at home mom who enjoys baking and making treats! She dreams of one day opening her own bakery!

The Loves: Mr and Mrs Love are still new to learning about their psychic powers. They only recently got into it after finding out that Phoebe shared this gift and was having problems controlling it.

(P.S. I'm really glad a lot of you seem to enjoy them so far!!!!! Like I'm seeing a bunch of positive feedback for them and it makes me 😭😭😭/pos)

[make-me-imagine]

Hello love ♡

First of all, I want to congratulate you on your 5500 follower milestone! That's incredible♡! I love your writings, Mera, and I think that your ship celebration is a wonderful idea!

Could I please request a male matchup for Marvel, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings/Hobbit? With the additional "What you did for your first date" and "Ways they show you they love you without words" headcanons for all three of them? I'm female, she/her.

To begin with, I'm full of contradictions, utterly boring, very insecure and highly complicated. I would say my strongest personality traits are my kindness, calmness and sympathy. It's almost impossible to scare or upset me, because I always see the good in a person and recognize where anger, frustration and despair come from. There's no cruelty in me at all. I'm open and impartial towards everything and everyone, without any judgment or prejudice. I also have a calming/grounding effect on other people and animals, which is great because I honestly love all sorts of animals (I'm also a vegetarian because I refuse to intentionally hurt any animal). I have a faszination for chaos and rebellion, but am quite submessive/timid and a clean-/control freak myself. I'm always well-meaning and there to help others. I despise people who enjoy the suffering of others, just because they have the 'power' to. I'm very open-minded and I think that every opinion matters and that whatever someone has to say is important, at least to them and therefore for me. I will never ignore someone's sorrows and suffering and I try my hardest to help and comfort as best I can. But, even though I see the good in everything, I'm very insecure myself and have little love and understanding for myself. I have a very bad self-esteem and not a particularly positive self-perception, which mostly defines my actions. It makes me believe that I'm a burden to others and that I annoy them. I feel like I'm not "worthy" of love/there's nothing lovable about me, that there are too many problems in contrast to the little good things. Nevertheless, I would never change myself for anything or anyone, I'm who I'm. For me, dealing and interacting with people is really difficult, because I'm so clumsy and nervous around them and easily feel like I'm making a fool out of myself. Another reason is that I fear to be rejected and thrown aside when someone sees how boring, problematic and annoying I actually am. You would be surprised how timid and reserved I'm; I'm sure you wouldn't notice me in a room full of people if it wouldn't be for my different appearance (I'm always wearing only black, have dyed my hair a little and two ear piercings). I almost never like the "typical" heroes and righteous characters. And somehow I have such a undergoing disdain for any figure in the police and law department. Because I'm easily sad and not a funny/joking person, I like and enjoy people who aren't too serious themselves. And I'm the most loyal person you'll ever find, once you earn my trust, I'll always be on and by your side, no matter what. I've always felt like I don't belong anywhere, like I'm the only cat in a room full of dogs. That's probably why I have a soft spot for the weirdos, outcasts, loners and "crazy" ones. Though, in my opinion, the definition of normal, crazy and real are very subjective. My whole life I've felt kinda judged, misunderstood and unwanted. People often falsely think that my unassuming nature is naivity and take my social-insecurity for aloofness and coldness. I'm also quite opinionated and aware of what I want, how I feel and who I am. I'm often questioning my surroundings, the traditions and rules and I have no problem challenging others, even authority. I'm a perfectionist, which often leads me to overthinking and that can be equally good and bad. I'm absolutely clueless in romance and totally oblivious to flirting because I'm 100% inexperienced in this stuff, but I'm a bit of a hopeless romantic.

-Luna 1/2

Hey Luna, I hope you like what I came up with. You provided a bit more information than was necessary lmao, I forgot the word limit for asks was extended. BUT, it was enough to give me a good feel for who to ship you with, so I hope you like them!

All ships are under the cut: 

Marvel: 

I ship you with Clint.

Clint was my immediate thought when reading your information. He is very loyal and kind-hearted and I think would be most drawn to those who are kind, loyal, and have strong morals. He would try his best to show you how great you are through your insecurities, he loves you for who you are and sees no flaws in you. He would be very good at showing his care and love for everything you are. He does not need words to know how you feel as he is very good at seeing through you and knowing what you feel without them.

What you did for your first date: 

You would have a fun yet casual day out date.

First you would go on a walk through a nearby park, talking and joking about everything and nothing. 

Then you would go to a musical instrument museum.

He loves music too, so this would be great for both of you.

You got to see the evolution of music and instruments and listened to various kinds of music.

You spent hours in the museum together.

To finish the date of you went to a restaurant, you chose the place to go too since he knew you were vegetarian and he wanted you to share your favorite place and meals with him. 

Ways they show you they love you without words: 

He loves physical touch as well, so he would often express himself through various physical actions. 

Placing a kiss to the back of your hand, or head. 

Hugging you close to him randomly. 

Wrapping you up in his arms on the couch when watching movies as he randomly kisses the side of your head or face. 

Best Friend: 

I think your best friend would be Steve. He is a very kind and compassionate person and would be very brotherly to you. he would never force you out of your comfort zone and would often check in on you. He can sometimes be a bit serious, but it never pushy towards you. He is very caring and helps you to accept yourself and things around you. 

-

Harry Potter: 

I ship you with Harry. 

Harry is a very encouraging and accepting person and I think he would see the best in you and would never stop showing and proving to you that you are worthy of love and compassion. He would find you to be beautiful and never sees the flaws that you try to convince yourself that you have. I think he would be one of the best people to show you that you matter and are beautiful. 

What you did for your first date:

You first met at Hogwarts, and since there was not much choice in dates he chose something simple that he knew you would enjoy. 

You left during dinner and took an evening stroll around the grounds.

You stayed out past curfew and sat on a nearby hill watching the stars together.

When you began to get sleepy you snuck back in and he walked you back to your room.  

Ways they show you they love you without words:

He brings you your favorite snacks and drinks randomly. 

Randomly drapes his cloak or jacket over your shoulders when you are cold. 

Will take your hand in his and rubs his fingers softly over your skin. 

Hugs you from behind randomly. 

Will play your favorite music throughout the house when he knows that you are stressed or sad. 

Best Friend:

Hermione. She is very good at making you feel better about the world and yourself. She is always open to going on long walks and listening to you rant about anything or just to talk when needed. She is good at giving advice and never lets you feel inferior to anyone. 

-

Lotr: 

I ship you with Aragorn. 

Out of everyone, I think Aragorn would be the best suited for you. He is kind, and patient and sees the best in everyone. He would see the best in you and is very good at showing it to you too. He will always make you feel wanted and needed. He does not let anyone take you for granted and will always stand up for you. He loves that you love music and will sing for you when you are stressed or having trouble falling asleep. 

What you did for your first date:

Aragorn being Aragorn, woud take you on a horse ride to a beautiful forest.

You would go exploring and walking through the meadows.

He would share his knowledge of various plants with you and pick you flowers along the way, making you a small bouquet. 

Once it got late, you two sat on the top of a hill and watched the sunset, waiting for the stars to come out before making your way back. 

Ways they show you they love you without words:

Surprising you with flowers randomly. 

Holding your hand as you walk through town on a quiet evening. 

Bringing you various plants and taking care of them for you.

Planting you a garden with all of your favorite plants and flowers. 

Hand-making you a special pendant to wear or hang somewhere in your home. 

Best Friend:

Out of everyone, I think you would form a bond with Eowyn. She is caring and quiet, and is very easy to get along with She is very good at making people aware of their worth and of feeling wanted. She would never make you angry or disappoint you. I think you two would become so close that you consider each other family.

You are the bold tings 

I am the normal tings 

btw**If I ask questions in this just dm me the answers lol

“I’m all good. I just had a doctors appt which took forever but nothing to worry about thanks for asking.” 

Oh okay that’s calmed me, I was going crazy at the time, I thought something bad had happened, I didn’t know if I was being a silly moo or not...yk. 

“ Also I’m gonna check out the thing now but I’m rly glad it seems like this won’t has been good at least w music”

Emily, I have NO IDEA what you were aiming to say here fam, but I only had a minor stroke so..all good : )

“U have no idea how much ready that made me smile fr that’s actually so thoughtful and how u remember all of that in such detail wow😂”

I’m honestly glad It made you smile because it made the others smile too, i’m quite happy about that. Yeah I have a strange thing with detail, sometimes I go a bit too much into it, however, I felt it was necessary for that kind of message.  

“...the nun story was made up but I appreciate that u remember that sm haha, and the ozone layer and everything...”

Oiiii, you definitely had me with that I was thinking like “Who tf are these Nuns and why hasn’t anyone called the police or something...chasing kids and taking phones n shit” and legit, as I’m writing this it had just made me remember that some nights when me or David didn’t reply cos we were SLEEPING, one of you kept sending like “penis” 50+ times at 4:00 a.m...I mean, it wasn’t that pleasing waking up to penis but whatever!

“And it’s actually insane how many years it has been”

I knowwwww, I can’t believe next year it’ll be THREE YEARS since we all met, crazy stuff!! Nah like I actually find it soooooo weird how, we were all on Instagram one day, and SOMEHOW you came across our account. I remember me and David thought you and the rest were a bit sus as well as 3 doods being mega weird, wait I was 16 when we started talking eww wtf i’m now 19 Im so old why am i writing this ur thinking?! idk its just all coming out 😂

“...Then I remember Graydon got added to the gc and I didn’t know what to think at first but we bonded over liking Hamilton and making fun of his bagged milk and how he spoke French.”

Oh my days I can not BELIEVE He used milk from a bag THAT. IS. SO. WRONG. Straight from the cows boob or udder or whatever the fuck, is the best  😂 You all were so different from me and David haha, we failed french...well David did, I JUST passed, kinda and we didn’t read books or go to musicals but 2 years on..I still don’t.  

“Then I remember thinking how crazy it was to realize aurora lives like an hour drive away from me or maybe less.”

Jeez I forgot she lives down in AZ, would you ever go see her if you had the time and set it up with her? Or do you think it would be awks n weird n stuff 😂 Personally I actually don’t wanna meet anyone..jk obvs, but when i’m selling out shows in Phoenix you’re all being der ygm 😂

“I remember u and David went to that rainbow looking school and u had French together and u wore those funny little proper uniforms”

Nah I was creasing when I read this yk!! I can’t lie it was..a...weird school to go to 😂 But yeah I remember the uniform was so heavy like back in 2016 summer it got up to 37 - 40 Celsius that’s like the hottest temp in the UK in 60yrs or something and we had to wear jumpers and blazer EVEN IN THE CLASSROOM nah im getting vexed just thinking about it but yeah I stole an exit sign from the main entrance to keep as a keepsake lol

“u and David would joke around and say I was the annoying posh type of I was English and one day I remember being on discord for hours until like 6am for u guys”

Yeah we both thought you were dead serious n shit like we tried not to swear in the chat cos we didn’t know if you were a hard church person! Yeah I remember those days too. The thing is, a while before we met you and the rest we would do that daily like our days would be like: go to school, come home, search the cupboards, and then go on discord at like 8 pm and get off at 4-5 am Friday thru Saturday! and yeah i remember you never talked when we were in a call and me and David we actually had to msg each other shit like “oi is Emily good?” and when we asked on discord you’d reply with “yeah i’m here” 😂

“...and David making tea or coffee smthg like that”

I have the video he made, I’ll send it to you, lmk when you get this far!

“I remember the night u said u we’re leaving for Germany and how I was nervous bc I knew I couldn’t do anything to stop u but I just wanted u to be happy.”

We’re even, We made it up and planned that 😂 Sorry :( David would msg me on snapchat me and be like “They’re actually tryna get me to go get and help you! fuck off” He’s a good one! 

“I remember the dogs u had years ago”

Yeah I had to leave them behind when I left :( it was the HARDEST thing I've ever had to do! I had the fluffy one for 8yrs and the small one for 8 months

“I could never forget that u thought the Ozone layer was a basketball term”

Allow it and forget it yh I’m smarter now innit!

“...and sorry Izzy and I were little bitches back then”

Nah it’s all good I think i spoke to her like *well idk who i was speaking to* 4 times lol she was funny when we did talk tho! 

“but I rly appreciate our friendship and sticking together through the years and yeah can’t wait for more memories”

Me too, i’m glad it was you guys who we bumped into that day, I actually can’t explain how grateful I am to know you are there whenever I need you rt! The Future gonna be great fr !! Thank you!

Where I've Been

November 24, 2014

A few days ago an anonymous commenter named 'honey' commented pls post more which was very nice and inspiring. Then, my BFF Eric asked WTF was up with my blog. Last but not least, I had this conversation with my ex.

Hi, I'm back.

I haven't posted in more than a month because I have a LIFE, OKAY?? Well actually, I just haven't been dating, and that was a conscious decision for a few reasons:

1) Self-Preservation

I had another Tinder meltdown and was texting a lot of guys I didn't even want to meet and it felt sleezy and unproductive.

I was stood up and fed up.

Dating lost its entertainment value to me, the one form of payoff I received from bad dates. And I lost my voice, literally (laryngitis) and figuratively. This blog was supposed to be a place to tell funny tales but I was kind of just sad for a while. Instead of finding the jokes in each bad date, dating had become a joke.

I was seeing a guy who was in an open relationship with his girlfriend. He told me their only "rule" was that they remained each other's #1. That made me #2...or #3...or #10, who knows. It took a few months, but I decided I didn't want to be this guy's (or anyone's) side gal, I wanted to be someone's main squeeze or nothing at all.

I was put in the "friend zone" for the first time ever. I'm fine.

I'm slightly unclear on who I am or what I want in life and thus, not in a place to be dating.

2) I hit the road

First I went to Denver to watch my beautiful and lovely friend Bonnie join her now-husband in matrimony. Gorgeous wedding, and they were the couple of the year! In second place were me and one of the groom's best friends (at least for the weekend, rom-com style, OK??). We hit it off the first night and became fast friends. Friends that kiss on the second night while taking a moonlit stroll by the river. It was all very charming and romantic and I'd love to tell you more but I'll save that for another day.

It's really important for you to know that while I was there I saw a squirrel eating pizza at the park. FAVORITE THINGS COMBINED ALL AT ONCE.

Then I was off to Hawaii. I go each year with three girlfriends from college (except last year--leave me alone it's really hard to talk about that dark time in my life). It was really beautiful and delicious and fun. But I was sick for one full day smack dab in the middle of our week, as was my friend Stephanie, who had also been stung by a man o' war jellyfish the day prior. Bedridden in Hawaii: A Nightmare, is the name of a book I made up that would aptly describe that day of my life. Regardless of that mournful day, I'll always be thankful for my favorite shrimp truck and coconut cream pie and funny friends that made it a delight, otherwise. The views weren't so bad either, I suppose.

Most recently I was in San Francisco with a friend from high school, visiting our friend who lives there. This was some good-ol', soul-nourishing gal time. Our San Fran girl trips are always restful, delicious and refreshing. I drank a lot of good coffee, strolled the piers and got some fresh air, ate delicious food, danced to oldies (!!!) and most importantly, got to catch up with my ever-inspiring gal pals. Pictured to the right is a Nutella-stuffed cookie and house-made hot chocolate from Dandelion Chocolate, where you get to TASTE chocolate, talk to a maker (I didn't because I was overeager for a sweet treat) and then...eat a treat. The best. It was so, so good. Go to there if you're in SF!

3) I moved, and then I was mugged

If you've read (m)any of my posts, you know that I live in great fear of being murdered, and I finally, actually almost was! I recently moved to a new apartment only half a mile from my old one (moving sucks!), and I was walking my dog out front when a guy approached me and said something, to which I replied, huh? He repeated, "I have good aim, what you got?" I tried to converse and decipher what he meant, when I finally realized he had his hand in his pocket as if he had a gun and he was trying to rob me of whatever I had. Cue chills toe-to-head (the chills actually started in my feet--very strange) and I knew I had to comply and get the out. I told him I'd give him whatever he wanted but I didn't have much: I only had my phone, my dog and my pepper spray, all of which he could see. (I know you're wondering why I didn't spray him, but I knew if he had a gun he could shoot me even if blinded from some pepper.) He asked for my phone, all the while reminding me he "had good aim" any time he thought I was about to run or pepper spray him. I never saw a gun, but even the threat of one was bone-chillingly terrifying. At the end of the situation we calmly negotiated that he could have my phone and I could keep my life. How sweet. He walked away cooly, and I ran to my neighbor's, pounded on his door, ran upstairs to my apartment before he could answer, heard him say "hello?" and screamed "NEIGHBOR?!" We had never met, and this was our first introduction (CHILL MOVE, ERIN). He called 9-1-1 for me and the police showed up 20 minutes later and nonchalantly took a report. It could have been so much worse, but it really stripped me of my already-wobbly sense of security. Ever-since, I've split my time between my new apartment, which contains an unassembled bed and is hardly unpacked, and my parents house because they love me and feed me and are so nice. The commute BLOWS but the payoff (read: sanity) is worth it, especially during the holidays. Plus it sounds cool to be like, "well I have an apartment in LA so I can crash there when I want." JK...that just sounds financially irresponsible.

4) I was a little bit sad

I've a little bit been wallowing in self-pity. It has kind of been one thing after another: laryngitis, bronchitis, I got stuck in an elevator (which sounds minor, but is my #2 fear in life, behind being murdered), I suddenly had a limp on my right side from hip pain (hi, I'm 26), I got mugged (see #1 fear), I got eaten alive by bugs in Hawaii so much so that I thought I had bed bugs (lol), and on top of it all, a really good friend of mine moved far, far away.

This person was kind of my go-to not-boyfriend. An ex from many moons ago, he had become the person I called after a bad day, bad date, good day, good anything. He's the kind of friend who when my food order is delivered wrong says, "don't freak out, I'll buy you whatever food you want" because he knows that's my third biggest fear. He fixes my technology, tells me about good movies, gets dessert with me upon request at basically any hour and is just really lovely to me a lot of the time. When I found out he was moving, I was a low-functioning catatonic for about a week. I became prematurely nostalgic, unable to imagine how I would function without this person who had played a huge role in my life for nearly a decade. It's been about three months now and yes I miss him but I'm FINE...see next section...

5) I've been having fun

Dating is very time-consuming, so with all this new, free time on my hands I've been doing things I'm usually "too busy" to do like read, see movies and make crafts (yeah, like paint and glue and glitter-type crafts). I read Not That Kind of Girl by Lena Dunham, which both warmed my heart and made me think, among other books like White Girl Problems and Psychos by Babe Walker. Serious literature happening over here!!

I saw some flicks, my favorite being The Tingler (1959) presented in Percepto! at CineFamily. The "Tingler" is a lobster-like creature that can be fatal, and Percepto is a simulation of the creature's attack...a buzzer installed in the theater seat. This has been my favorite old "creature feature" since I was a kidlette, so seeing it like this was super special!

Which reminds me, Halloween came and went, and it's important for you to know that I dressed as my favorite emoji, which I made with my own two paws.

Now it's the holidays and I'm still not ready to date (have you ever been on a first date the day before Christmas Eve? I have, and it's the pits). But I AM excited to start writing again. I'M BACK!!!!!!!!! Talk soon, XO.
