Togaās AU Concept
He visited Sanctum on a whim, he was in Mistral visiting his niece Saphron after all, why not visit the school that was training itās future protectorsā¦ Was it truly chance that it happened when he got there at that moment. That he stumbled upon the horrified students backing away from a scene from a horror movie.
A girl over a boy, her skin pale, hair a dull gold but utterly contrast by the crimson of the boy beneath her, of his blood leaking, his eyes wide in equal parts horror and confusion as the girl above him drank deeply. Her aura lighting, brightening with every drop more she drunk.
But from her eyes another purely liquid dripped, tears that contradicted the madness in her eyes, others stood confused. But not him, never him, he didnāt hesitate, to hesitate was the let others suffer. The girl moved with surprising grace, avoiding him while her features altered, matching her victimās.
His hand reached out as he enforced his soul into him, willing thew boyās body to mend though his soulās light. The second he saw the studentās face gain some of itās blush ensured his life her turned on her and launched after the girl.
Sheād been smart to run instead of fight, it was a fight she wouldnāt win, couldnāt win, but escaping was just a futile. She was fast, agile and athletic yes, but he was a skilled tracker. If she was faster, he just had to rely on endurance to carry him through.
And it didā¦
Sheād been locked up, and they were debating her sentence, the sentence for an aura user with combat training, she was a threat. And perhaps he shouldāve left it well enough alone, but he didnāt, and spoke to her.
And he realized the tragic madness that spurred her on. Toga Himiko was not a monster, she was a girl, gifted with a powerful Semblance, great potential and an honest easily corruptible heart. Oneās semblance could influence a persons personality quite easily. After all, it was the manifest of your being, of your soul. How could you not begin to ponder its meaning, how could you not attempt to reflect itās nature on your person, within your actions.
She was dangerous yes, unstable without a doubtā¦ But, she was also alone, her family couldnāt understand her and feared her for it. Somewhere inside he knew she understood her sense of love was twisted. Was not the norm, after all, why else would she have cried when expressing it.
This was no monster, no villain of demon, she was a girl, a pitiful, lonely, misunderstood child who wanted nothing more then to express her love the only way she could. They way her very soul demanded she act out. All she wanted was a connection, was someone to understand her, was to have friends, family and a love that could accept her deviant nature, a nature she had no control of.
How could he call himself a Huntsman if he couldnāt save a single girl from her crippling, cruel loneliness. So he visited her, again and again, using his pull and connection with Ozpin to freeze the freeze the girlās sentencing while he worked things out.
She started to look forward to meeting him, and heād admit to the same, after all she was so cheerful and oddly endearing. If not for her eyes being amber instead of blue heād had thought her one of his nieces.
Apparently after he started visiting regularly she ceased any resisting and even halted trying to escape, he started to bring her things, even cooking for the girl. Not helping but to feel she needed food a bit better then what they served here.
ā¦ He hadnāt expected her to cry, she, she couldnāt remember then last time her mom had made her foodā¦ The last time they treated her like a daughter instead of a Grimm. It angered him, it infuriated the Arc. But he held his tongue, and focused on what mattered.
On calling in favors, on talking to his family and getting his affairs in order, Jaune was many things, he was a Huntsman, next in line to be patriarch to the Arc House and a teacher at Beacon. But he was also a criminal whoād cheated his way into Beacon once upon a time. His hands had cut down men, his decisions as a leader had led to the death of innocents before as well.
Toga almost killed a boy, she needed help, needed understanding, to be given a chance. And he was all to willing to risk giving her one.
-0-0-0-
She tried to be normal, to live normally, to act normally, to love normally, she tried so hard, it was also such a struggle, other peopleās normal. Other people being able to express themselves, to be themselves and be accepted for it. It wasnāt fair, it wasnāt right, why couldnāt her way be normalā¦ Why couldnāt she be accepted?
Why couldnāt her parents understand her, accept her, but no, they told her it was wrong, that to be so fascinated by blood was wrong, sick and twisted. That she needed to be normalā¦ Were they saying her soul was wrong? She could feel it, ever since her semblance first manifested, since she stumbled upon it so long ago when sheād licked her woundā¦
Blood was to the body what aura was to the soul, it was beautiful, profound and unique to every person, and she, she could understand it, could indulge, could become others through their blood, she could understand them, be themā¦ It was her normal.
But her parents refused to accept her normal, society refused it, the world and everyone in it refused itā¦ She obeyed, she tried, she struggled to be everyone elseās normalā¦ Until she met him.
Saito was a amazing boy, he was kind, smart and popular, everyone liked him, everyone respected him, just like a lot of other girls she grew to like him. So often she fought the urge to ask him for some of his blood, she wanted to be like him, to know him, to Become himā¦
But she smothered those urges, because she knew he could not accept them, nobody could accept a freak like her so she resisted the urge. She fought to stay āNormalā To be a average, cheerful, reasonable, well-mannered girl that others could accept, even if it was all a actā¦
But then Saito got into a fight, and seeing him like thatā¦ so wonderfully bruised and bloodied, it made what was so twisted inside go crazy. And it all came crashing downā¦ And she was upon him, moving on not instinct but pure natural movement, as unconsciously as one breathed she gave to her semblanceās nature.
His flesh parting so easily from a mere box cutter, his aura was shattered in the fight with other beforehand. She drunk from him, his blood tasting like the sweetest of irons, so warm, so filling, so unique to him and him aloneā¦
It was ecstasy, finally, finally she got to be herself, she was able to express her love, she felt herself turning into him. His aura, his soul, his being, she understood it so much more in that moment. She knew it was all over, her life, all her efforts, they would come crashing down. But for just a moment, she wanted it, to be her own normal, to be herselfā¦
And then he appeared, he saved Saito, and stopped her, his gaze held so much in it, there was the anger and disgust she expected, but also something newā¦ Pity.
His name was Jaune Arc, he was a Huntsman, a professor, and he stopped her, but he didnāt stop there. He should up to met her in her jail cell, they talked, well, he talked, asking why she did it. And eventually she explainedā¦ And, and he listened.
He didnāt understand, butā¦ But he tried to, he asked more, and she could see it, the disgust this anger and confusion, but never was that all she saw. She could see him trying, struggling to comprehend. Time and time again heād visit, and talk to her, ask her question sheād never considered, asked if she thought what she did was okay.
She knew it wasnāt you canāt force your love on others, but he understood, not because it was normal to him, or because he was like her. No, because he tried to do what nobody else didā¦ He tried to understand her.
He wanted to help her, and then he asked.
āToga, I need to hear you say it, where you trying to kill Saito?ā She knew he needed to hear her say it, so she did.
āNo, I just, I wanted to express my loveā¦ā And then he told her.
āToga, youāre not normal, but thatās okay, everyone is different, itās what makes us unique, what makes life beautiful.ā He hugged her.
āYouāre not a monster, or a Grimm, your human, and youāve been through so much.ā He was warmā¦ The words slipped from her mouth.
āPlease, can I, can I drink your blood.ā He paused and she knew sheād be rejected, pushed away and left aloneā¦
āToga, listen.ā But she wasnāt rejected, pushed away, instead the man met her gaze, a sternness in his gaze but also a sympathy, one sheād never seen before.
āYou donāt behave like others, and it can be dangerous.ā She knew that, of course she did.
āBut it doesnāt have to be.ā He begun to glow, a soft, kind but powerful white.
āI know, you can help people, more than even I can with your semblance.ā His big, calloused hand landed on her head.
āThe same way you can take otherās blood, if you gave your love back, you could help so many people.ā She shook, sheād thought that too, but, but never hoped others would, would.
āYouāre not a monster, twisted or evil Toga, your just different, your semblance, your soul, your beautiful.ā It was the smile of a father, of someone who genuinely wanted nothing more than to help her, then to comfort the girl whoād spent her entire if not short life being rejected by others.
āHimiko, I canāt just let you free, unfortunately the law is very clear on that.ā She saw the sadness, the anger in his eyes, it was for her sake. But soon enough they were both overtaken by what she would come to know was his most prominent trait, Determination.
āIf you agree to it, to come to Vale you can be put on Probation, under my supervision. Iāā be your guardian and probationary officer.ā She knew her parents mustāve given up their rights to her by the slight anger that burned in his eyes.
āWeāll attend therapy lessons and youāll be taught about aura control by me.ā He reached into his pocket and pulled it out then, a vial, the most beautiful shade of red.
āToga, I know the way you view things are different then mine own, but that doesnāt mean you canāt understand me, you lived in this world, acted appropriately for it as well. You understand how the general public views love.ā He offered her the vial, the beautiful crimson flowing with his aura, with his soul.
āI canāt promise others will accept your views, or even try, but I promise, at the very least I will do everything I can to make a environment you can be yourself inā¦ And that Iāll try my best to understand you.ā She reached, her fingers grazing the glass, the vial warmā¦ Her heart pounded as she looked to the beautiful crimson.
Slowly, cautiously she undid the top, he never looked away from her, never tore his gaze from the sight, there was no rejection as she took him into her. As she felt his soul through his aura, as his being and iron went down her throat becoming one with her.
She felt herself change, becoming him, her pale ash-blonde hair becoming a shade of livid golden-wheat, her fair skin pinking with a healthy flush. The slits of her pupils dilating, the Faunus trait vanishing as her pupils rounded and turned the most expressive blue.
Her aura converting, her soul changing and being replicating that as her very body matched the new soul she was temporarily hosting. And he looked at her through it all, reaching out and patting her head, the smile was genuine.
āIf this is how you want to be thatās fine, Iāll learn to get used to it, but please, donāt stop being yourself, even if your appearance changes.ā From his hand aura surged into her, his aura, given freely, pure and unfiltered.
Her answer finally came alongside the tears.
āYes.ā
-0-0-0-
She rushed down the hall from her room, excited for the day sheād looked forward to for so long, she couldnāt wait. Reaching the kitchen she found three people there, her sister and brother, Ren and Nora, two others heād taken under his wing.
At the stove flipping the immense amount of pancakes the Valkyrie craved was Jaune, they waved to her, well Jaune and Nora did. Ren sat patiently at his seat enjoying his tea, she sat there beside them, besides two people who knew her, truly knew her, who accepted her almost as much as Jaune.
Two simple years was all she spent with him, but in those two years sheād felt more joy, more acceptance then ever before. Sheād realized truths about herself and flaws in her actions.
She was free to express her love, but not to enforce it on others, to take from people who did not want to return her affections. It was wrong, cruel and that act whether it be her form of expressing love or ordinary expression of it by others were no less disgusting.
Sheād help so many people with her feelings though, a little blood and sheād given so much back in turn, to children who needed it, to people with unique cases and blood types meant nothing to her semblance with regular people. She couldnāt help but want to help, even if Jaune worried, she loved him for thatā¦ She loved him, loved him more then others. More then anyone else.
But it wasnāt the same type of love she always felt, always knew, no, this was different, she wanted to both love him and be loved by him. To be loved as Toga Himiko, by Jaune, she didnāt want him to conform to her standard of love.
It wouldnāt be fair, itād be like who she was forced to follow the standard society before she met him, she wanted to love Jaune as herself but also as him whenever the fancy struck her. But she also wanted to love him as Ren did, as Nora did, as so many of his students didā¦
And soon, she would be able to, today would be the start of it, a plated landed in front of her then, and looking up she met his smile.
āAre you ready Toga, your three will be trying out for Beacon today after all. So you all need to eat up.ā He served her her breakfast, more than Renās but nothing near the mountain of pancakes he placed before her eccentric sister. But then again the pile her put before himself was barely any smaller. He needed it after all, because he regularly gave her blood, regularly accepted her form of expressing it and indulged that aspect of her.
She loved him for it, wanted to love him even more, even deeper, more intimately then any other, and once she passed Initiation she would. She only hoped that when she did succeed, her partner would be as understanding as her.
Maybe even being able to understand her love, Or Better Yet! Maybe Theyāll Love Jaune As Much As She Does! Oh āGiggleā she meant Professor Arc.

Pre-finale Arcane thoughts
I'm so glad we are getting more Arcane content tonight, I am so sad that we are never getting Arcane content ever again.
The writers have revealed that Act 3 will be the longest act by far, with the final episode being much longer than the average episode. It isn't specified how long, but it will be longer.
Despite this extra runtime, and the S2 pattern of getting multiple music video segments per episode, this Act has by far the least songs. Most of the songs have already happened. We only have 3 songs on the soundtrack that haven't happened yet. Then again that assuming the Blood Sweat and tears song will not make it into Arcane. This might be a good sign that they are going to use that extra time for more detailed plot. I know too much music was a big complaint of the first 2 acts.
Also there will be a Viktor song ā„ļø
I am hopeful for more Jayce and Viktor content, I am excited that they will have another confrontation and Viktors final transformation. I am of course sad about the figurative death of Viktors humanity. It seems from some leaks like the show will put immense emphasis on Viktor and Sky's relationship. It is still unclear to me if the Sky Viktor see's in the Hexcore is really Sky. From what we saw in S1 Viktor and Sky didn't have a very close relationship, we are only ever shown him brushing her off. His grief over her death is more a general guilt and grief of having taken a good persons life, not a personal loss because of a significant relationship between them. My interpretation is that Viktors visions of Sky are a manifestation of guilt. After finding out how much she looked up to him he wished that he had gotten to know her when he could. Believing she is with him now is a coping mechanism to avoid the guilt that he is grieving someone who he went out of his way not to give a chance. Maybe the show will take it in this direction, maybe she will be revealed to be the Hexcore controlling him, maybe they go all in on SkyVik as the new doomed romance.
I like Jinx and I look forward to the show furthering her recovery. If they do. Inevitable because of the death of Isha Jinx is going to spiral, we will get way more sad Jinx content. She will try and kill herself again, she will be absolutely destroying and isolating herself. It's the same thing we have gotten from Jinx for the entire show, she is just forever on the pain train. I am hopeful however that the show will focus on a recovery and that Vi and Jinx's relationship will stay intact despite Jinx's intense grief. I hope Vi will in some way be able to stay and comfort Jinx through the loss of Isha, and through Jinx's self blame. Both Vi and Jinx blame themselves for the death of their younger sibling (powder's emotional death) and perhaps they can both find solace in each other.
Caitlyn and Vi will get back together. Fingers crossed that we get a Cait/Vi sex scene. though honestly the hope is mostly for the memes. After their devastating breakup I am not sure how well the show will be able to just get them back together and make the relationship ok. From both characters perspectives the other has betrayed them in every way, gone against their deepest morals. Vi is in a close family relationship with Jinx, the woman who killed Caitlyns mother, after she promised she had no more sympathy for Jinx. Caitlyn betrayed Vi's trust and tried to shoot a child, then she attacked Vi and gassed the streets of her home. I really hope Arcane doesn't just gloss over this and get them back together. We know from the trailers that they at least argue about it, but most of the blame seems to be shifted to Ambessa, which is kinda weak.
Obviously we will get the Ekko/Heimerdinger Time travel plot. My only concern is that we will not get enough time for this. Even with the extra long act, time travel is an insane element to include this late in the story. Time travel as a plot point is infamous for creating massive problems for the story, it's almost never done well.
Overall I think episode 7 will start with a cold open flashback to Jayce's time in the Hexcore and show us both what happened to him that caused his turn against Viktor, I think this will be a flash forward to a future where Viktors commune has spread and the people don't really have free will. This flashback will also show us what happened to Ekko and Heimerdinger. This is where time travel will be introduced.
The next episode will focus on Jinxs grief, she will have another attempt on her life and be stopped by Vi. Vi and Caitlyn fight over Jinx's involvement in Caitlyns mothers death, but Caitlyn will see Jinx's grief and how it mirrors her own and come to the conclusion that war destroy all. Caitlyn and Vi will fight about Caitlyns involvement with Ambessa. Ambessa and Singed will be bringing Vander back to life as well as Viktor. Singed will strip Viktor of his remaining humanity so the "mutation" will survive. Viktor in some way will agree to this motivated by his witnessing how emotions tore down his commune and the betrayal of his best friend, accompanied by The Line song.
Jayce returns and finds out that Viktor is being resurrected, he once again wants to stop him in order to stop the Arcane from spreading. He will explain the Hexcores spread to Vi and Caitlyn to explain his action sagainst Viktor.
In the final episode they all team up to fight Ambessa, Jayce goes separately to fight Viktor. Ambessa will have revived Vander, except he will have lost his humanity and no longer contain Vi's father. This breaks Vi's heart, but she ultimately has to fight and stop him. Caitlyn and Ambessa will have a showdown that mirrors their training fight on the boat. This fight will take most of the episode and have a banger soundtrack. At some point in this Piltover v.s. Noxus battle Jinx will show up having made the choice to move forward and redefine herself, here we get the haircut and new design. Maybe she will rename herself.
I'm not sure how Mel fits in, her plotline seems so separate to the rest of the story. My assumption is she somehow makes it back to Piltover and confronts her mother about being the mystery child with magic powers. She will also side with Piltover against her mother. Being forced to fight against her daughter will shake Ambessa's resolve, as in her mind she is doing all this for her daughter.
I have the sinking feeling this will all end with the characters solving it with the power of friendship. It seems obvious that they will team up to fight Noxus, but there is no way they kill Ambessa, she is too profitable and promoted by Riot. Her status as a badass is being promoted on all the games and she has a tie in book coming out. I doubt they kill Vi or Jinx, too central. Caitlyn has to live to end up with Vi. Killing Viktor for a third time would be cheap. Jayce's arc hasn't led up to it.
I have a lot of ideas for cool things that could happen, and where it feels like the story is steering, But I can't see how these plot threads come together for a satisfying conclusion in just 3 episodes.
So much discussion about Arcane S2 ends with "but we'll see where it goes" this is the shows last chance to prove if it really was going somewhere with all of this, if the last few episodes were just set up to something great, like how so many people found season 1 act 1 boring/generic. or if the show is just fumbled. If these episodes suck then it will retroactively make these characters arcs all feel like they ended up going nowhere. In a heavily plotted show like Arcane where everything has always ended on a cliff hanger, where it finally goes will make or break the show. These character arcs and little animation details people have been obsessing over were either genius or a bunch of fluff that ended up amounting to nothing.
I am excited, a little worried. Mostly excited.

Spoilers for HOTD, Fire & Bood, and potential leaks.
I was a bit confused about the show going super hard on the Daemon-is-going-for-the-throne-for-himself, rather than for Rhaenyra in S2 (so far). From what I know of the book (and in S1) it seemed like he was supportive of Rhaenyra and did everything he did for her. But, I just had a thought that this could be because of Nettles potentially being removed from the show. I thought it could be a result of the fight they had last time they spoke and heās just being temporarily spiteful in saying heās the king. Or itās a manifestation of the weird stuff going on at Harrenhall thatās making him seem to turn on Rhaenyra. But, now Iām not so sureā¦
Iāve seen leaks/spoilers suggesting Rhaena will take the place of Nettles and claim Sheepstealer in the Vale. If this is true, it doesnāt make sense that Rhaenyra would suspect Daemon was having an affair with Rhaena and order her to be killed and not trust Daemon anymore. Unless she suspects that Daemon is going to take the throne for himself, and thinks Rhaena is helping him.
I suppose itās not totally unreasonable to think heās wants the throne for himself over Rhaenyra, but it seemed a bit sudden. Maybe Iām just being biased because Iām more team Rhaenyra adjacent and I wanted her to have someone to rely on.
I think itās strange they might removed Nettles, at first I thought it would be due to time constraints and having too many characters. I thought theyād blend Alyn and Addam together, but they havenāt, and weāve had a few scenes now with other dragon seeds. So why only remove Nettles?

šØTEAM BLACK TRAILER & SPOILERS FOR HOTDšØ
Ohā¦ MYā¦. GOD. This is literally all I could have asked for this is one of the best things Iāve seen in so long Iām so HYPED!!
This shotā¦ Iām literally heart broken this š. This is obviously at Lucerys funeral and honestly itās justā¦. TO MUCH. The tears in Jaces eyes, them burning Lukeās clothing because there wasnāt a body, baby Joffrey. This scene looks absolutely stunning but also so gut wrenching. I FEEL LIKE ILL DEFINITELY CRY š.
DRAGON TWINS DRAGON TWINS DRAGON TWINS DRAGON TWINS
Everyone knows that I manifested this, HARD. Whoever gave them a new, better wig bless you. To the person who actually put them into nice clothing, BLESS YOU TOO.
Baela is literally Laenas twin likeā¦ SHE LOOKS SO GOOD.
Iām so happy there finally getting more scenes and lines, I was praying for this. DRAGON TWINSSSS I LOVE YOUUUU
MOOOONNNNN DANCERRRREEEEEEREE
She looks almost exactly like what I imagine a young Vhagar would look like. VHAGER IS HER MUMMY CONFIRMED!!!
Itās hard to see in this particular shot but I do like that they kept her a paler green colouring!!!! I donāt think you guys understand how much I love moondancer. She like two moments in the book and I decided I would Stan forever.
BAELA TARGARYENNNNNNNN GETTING her own moment is something I am actually so hyped about, THATS MY WARRIOR PRINCESS.
You know I have a feeling that maybe after Rooks Rest and seeing what happens to a certain someone she mayyyyy cut her hair, like book Baela. Kind of like the thing, hair holds memories yk?
Cregan stark is NOT BLONDE WHO CHEEEEREEEEEDDDDDDDDDDD
I understand that the north storyline this season will probably only last three episodes max (damn you eight episodes)! NONETHELESS, I am beyond excited.
Can we talk about how Jacaerys is free from the ugly wig??? THANK THE HEAVENS!! There doing my boy right. Seeing him a decent amount in the trailer made me so hyped, I always thought he deserved to be seen more in the first season since YK, heās the Heirās heir (hahah) but Iām so glad there stepping up there game this season!!!
RHAENYRA RHAENYRA THE WOMAN YOU ARE! Whoever made her costumes and hair this season BLESS YOUR HEART.
I think itās obvious sheās most likely wearing a Visenya braid and she is STANDING ON BUSINESS!
Before when I was talking about the posters I was discussing how it seemed that they gave her back her cunningness and determination from the books and I am SO HAPPY THEY DID. Because THAT is a queen of he seven kingdoms THATTTTTT is MY WOMANNNNN!!!!
Also this is a side note: but I like how she refers to Aegon as Alicent Hightowerās son, not her brother or half brother but as ALICENTS SON!!!! I feel like it probably has to do with them not being close, but it also it makes it feel like Rhaenyra doesnāt consider him a true son of Viserys. Very interesting, canāt wait for there beef to get more intense.
Rhaenyraā¦ Rhaenyraaaas EMMA DāARCY YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS PERSON. Iām in shock, whoever made there outfits this season did they GOOOOOODDDDDD
LOTS of theories on whoās sheās looking š
1. Alicent Hightower
There was a bunch of leaks going around that there would be a final meeting between the two. I think this is an outfit that she wears in the earlier episodes so idkkk buttt If it Rhaenyra why are you looking at her like thatā¦ TOXIC YURI CONTINUES.
2. Mysaria
I feel it being Mysaria would be very interesting. Maybe itās her pleading āloyaltyā towards Rhaenyra. And then later on (if there keeping it like how it is in the books) helping Daemon blah B&C.
This is Corlys definitely telling Rhaenys not to get involved and Rhaenys telling him she has to do whatās right for her house and whatās right for Baela and Rhaena ššš
THERE GOING TO BREAK UP MY HEART THIS SEASON.
Anyways guys Iām so excited, Iām so happy that there finally giving team blacks kids moments to shine and also letting Rhaenyra be book Rhaenyraā¦ JUNE 16th canāt come sooner!

Genuine question (if it's not too personal for you to answer) what got you so into incest? I found you through tt but it's been a min since I've been on there so idk if you've ever told your story. For me personally I've dealt w sexual abuse/assault from my brother & I think that's why ur writing doesn't bother me as much as it would if that hadn't of happened to me. But I'm also sure there's plenty of people interested in this content with out it being trauma related so I was just curious about your "inspiration" I suppose.
cw: incest, rant, kinda long ramble under the cut
Honestly, I don't mind answering because I am a HUUUUGE oversharer, I'm actually glad you asked because maybe if I answer, people will get off my dick about it :3 I am also a victim of incest! For three years I was sexually abused and repeatedly raped by my older cousin (him being 13 to 16 and me being 8 to 11). COCSA, or child on child sexual assault, is a tricky thing to deal with for me, and personally, it left me with more guilt and confusing feelings as opposed to the sexual abuse and grooming I've faced from adults. Especially because it happened via someone I was related to. I think a reason why it manifested into this dark interest is because I only recently told my mother what happened, which gave my mind time to twist it around and make it something sexual. I enjoy writing about it because, for me, placing it in a fictional context makes me feel like I have more control over the situation, and helps me ease the constant itch in my brain that is just dying to replay the scene of me being sexually violated over and over again. I can, in a weird way, replace what happened with my cousin with silly little sexy stories with fictional characters; it gives me peace of mind to turn something bad into something "good," i.e, a story. It gives me a creative way to siphon all of the trauma leaking out of my brain and make it something partially useful to other people.
I actually don't mind when people who haven't been victims of incest or other awful things enjoy dark content that uses those themes! I think it's human nature to enjoy the taboo, and even have a bit of an obsession with it. Our brains, in the modern day, are so obsessed with being politically/socially/emotionally correct that we stop ourselves from enjoying the dirtiest, most perverted things that we know we truly want to indulge in, even when we're alone! People can enjoy what they want. The beautiful part of being online is anonymity. If you want to read about parents fucking nasty with their (adult) kids, you can totally do that with no real-life consequences because it is online, not-real, fictional, made-up, make-believe, and pretend (all in that order.) If you want to call anyone who indulges in these communities and reads this shit awful people, guess what? You totally can! Because this is the internet and everyone gets to have an opinion, spread their agenda, and say what they want, for better or for worse.
I hate to use this excuse, because truly, I understand that words hurt, but what I'm writing and what people are reading is all fiction! I certainly don't, and I hope most people who enjoy the incest/cnc/ddlg communities don't actually want to fuck their relatives or be raped.
Saying all of that, I'm going to continue to write nasty, depraved, incestous, rape-centered smut, because at the end of the day, that's what I want to do on my blog, and it's what makes me happy.
Thank you for asking. I'll be happy to answer any other questions that anybody has, even if they're hateful <3

Been reading some japanese opinions about the chapter and I'm glad some of them were able to start waking up about how bad fan pressure is. One comment that really caught my attention and reminded me of your Sukuna Gojo analysis is one saying
"this Gojo Yuji talk feels forced they don't really had that much of a deep relationship"
I mean....they are right. Gojo is a victim of leak/fandom culture. A person casually reading this or watching the anime won't even remember the 2 scenes of gojo and yuji. Yuji had more interactions with Todo, Nanami and Higuruma yet those fans don't care
I laugh at gojofans how they are constantly bringing random villains from other mangas like...why should I care about those? If Sukuna is that bland why are you constantly comparing him with random villains? Why are you so afraid to compare Gojo with other better mangas and characters? I think the character they want for Gojo is simple just Sukuna, and this is just pure jealousy
Though after the other pages were released I'm glad more and more people are starting to appreciate Sukuna
hi, anon!
i get your point exactly (also tysm for reading my gojo & sukuna analysis).
i feel like both gojo and yuuji were severely mistreated/ misunderstood by the leak readers and gojo-only fans. yuuji because people constantly put him down for not being a "smart" or "complex" enough main character (like what version are they even reading? yuuji might not be the sharpest but he's not a total idiot either, and he's far more adept and emotionally intelligent than most of the sorcerers we've seen) and gojo because the narrative "abuses" him. what they fail to see, however, is that the narrative abuses almost every character. the whole jjk world is founded on the concept of people's suffering and negativity being manifested into physical monsters, and the sorcerers that fight them every day are also not-so-stable and are treated as mere tools.
gojo is a wildcard whose birth shifted the very flow of the jujutsu world, but his story is one that reminds us that even if you work on the side of "good" you can still have bad qualities or experience the corruption that comes with having so much power, either literal power or hierarchical power. in this case, gojo had more literal power than hierarchical, but even though he did suffer under the corruption of the jujutsu higher ups (same as nanami and the rest) he himself shouldn't be trusted to have that hierarchical power because he's also morally ambiguous, selfish, overly confident, and immature.
him being the one in a powerful position is not a good idea. which is why his conversation with yuuji at the end, even though it felt a bit forced, was necessary to show us that the new generation needs to move on from the past ways of thinking that only pure strength can solve everything. he trusts people like yuuji, who are for more emotionally intelligent and compassionate than him, to make that change for a better world. him saying he believes he will be ultimately forgotten proves to us that being "the strongest" isn't something to aspire to, as it does nothing but corrupt and isolate people, like it did to both gojo and sukuna.
and yuuji was the key to igniting that change. it was his approach, with more emotional strength than just physical, that actually made a difference. and he's also the reason why the king of curses himself decided to go on a different path. sukuna lost to love. he couldn't handle that change immediately, of being destroyed by someone who had empathy for him, but i believe he was touched by yuuji's words and decided to go north this next time. and it shows a deepness and growth in his character that i was afraid we wouldn't get to see. but i'm glad we did.
sorry for my late reply btw, anon! hope you've been good! glad to hear your thoughts on this.

yāall mind if i yap about the walton gq interview a bit?
okay shoutout to my friend ash for manifesting this interview after danny did his LMAO
FIRST THOUGHTS: WHERE THE FUCK IS VENUS???
if you asked me his most iconic characters, venus is absolutely in the top three. how the fuck do they mention BILLY CRASH and JAY WHITTLE but not VENUS VAN DAM???? fuck whoever came up with this list.
now that thatās out of my system, letās go in order, shall we?
lee russell: ty walton for describing russell fucking perfectly. him and i are the only people who understand russell. (jk) ALSO YESSS THE DUCK LIPS BUT SIR CAN YOU SAY A LINE. PLEASEEE. on my knees. MOST IMPORTANTLY; WALTON SHIPS GAMBYRUSSELL. FUCK YESSSS š³ļøāšš³ļøāšš³ļøāšš³ļøāšš³ļøāšš³ļøāš LOVE WINS
cooper howard: snore. iām so fucking bored of this guy. are we not tired of hearing shit about the goddamn ghoul. moving on.
shane vendrell: STOP MAKING ME WATCH LEM DIE. CHRIST. but thank you again walton for focusing more on the shield than on your biggest piece of shit character!! and when he started talking āpsychological conditionā it reminded me of how iām like almost certain shane is bipolar. wonder if heād agree w me on that? anyways.
boyd crowder: WHYYYY DO THEY HAVE TO PLAY THE FINAL SCENE HOLY FUCKING SHIT I ALMOST CRIED AGAIN. so thankful to mr. olyphant for convincing walton to do justified. their chemistry IS SO PALPABLE. his love for boyd and raylan and justified in general is so fucking precious to me and it makes the show so much more special and it would absolutely not be justified if it werenāt for his spectacular input. i could listen to him blab on about that show all fucking day, itās the whole reason i love him. beautiful fucking words to describe it. just speechless. much love to this man. āraylan givens is an asshole. but heās my asshole.ā WE KNOW YOUāRE THE ORIGINAL RAYLANBOYD SHIPPER, BABE. š©¶
baby billy freeman: this bit was JAM PACKED w info and i loved it sm. really shocked they just came up w him on the spot but you could really tell cuz heās like the perfect combination of waltonās ideas and dannyās ideas cultivated into this old man. too bad he didnāt mention that he was inspired by his dad again, lol.
billy crash: this part was like a bit confusing to me cuz i have heard different stories about how he got the role from other sources but itās good to get some confirmation. pretty akin to what i heard, though. also giggled a bit when he said you donāt change what quentin writes cuz tarantino himself said āsomeoneā wanted to change the ending of django. but yāall didnāt hear that from me, lmao. always love to watch billy crash writhing in pain. :)
chris mannix: also a lot of new info for this one!! although i already knew about all the drama about h8 and the leak and all that, itās interesting to hear the process the actors went through. wouldāve paid millions to hear him do his voice. also why is he gatekeeping info, UGH. all i wanna know is if he had an encounter with tarantinoās punsihment dildo for falling asleep on set. lmfao.
the hero / jay whittle: okay, at first i was kinda pissed that he got a spot instead of venus, but this mightāve been my favorite segment aside from boydās. I never really find anything about him talking about his time on set of Iām a virgo so this was such a nice treat. i LOVE how he approaches each one of his characters, itās so special and is why each one of them are so special and different from any other character youāve ever seen. the wig story was fucking hilarious and itās just so sweet how he says letās figure this person out together. such a wonderful guy. it is SUCH a BEAUTIFUL story with a POWERFUL message and i adore how he recognized that. and the way he described jay? CHEFāS FUCKING KISS. mid-life crisis superhero who behaves like an alcoholic and is incapable of seeing different than his own pov? walt, youāre a fucking genius. his closing statement was absolute beauty.
anyways thanks for reading my ramble.
JUSTICE FOR MY GIRL VENUS
#i wrote this while listening to stan. thanks spotify for calling me out. LOL#anyways iām back on my obsessive bullshit#walton goggins#tal#IF YOU SAW THE TYPOS GO AWAY

tell me abt how u feel abt otto and harryās relationship PLS (raimi)
Okay! So to properly support what Iām about say Iām gonna start with some good old fashioned Harold Analysis. My favorite activity.
Harryās characterization through the trilogy is something that can seem inconsistent between movies at first glance but is something I believe to be intentional. Harry is someone who was brought up in a home with an emotionally abusive and all around neglectful father. This is not up for debate to me and I can and will prove it upon request. As a result, he lives most of his life in a sort of emotional survival mode. He is someone who adapts his personality to be whatever makes him feel safest in the moment. I could go into how this manifests in the first movie as a sort of Fawn response to Norman thatās so severe it leaks into his other personal relationships but thatās not what this post is about so we can get into that another day.
Whenever Harry is around Otto, he behaves in a manner that is often in high contrast to his behavior in the rest of the movie and even the rest of the trilogy. He is outwardly greedy, self centered, shallow, and noticably someone Otto finds rather obnoxious. But literally in the last scene we see Harry in before we are introduced to Otto, Harry is completely capable of behaving in a manner that would be seen as a lot more socially acceptable for lack of a better wording. Heās more similar to his characterization in sm1, if more outwardly confident seeming. But in that scene, heās alone with Peter, MJ, and Aunt May, people heās probably a whole lot more comfortable with. Later on in the movie, heās visibly emotionally collapsing, descending into alcoholism to cope, breaking down often, very visibly not really liking himself and much later on, descending into what I personally believe to be psychosis as a result of the revelation Peter is Spider-Man, something he canāt easily reconcile. That sort of shallower, greedy persona in those scenes with Otto is EXCLUSIVE to scenes with Otto.
Hereās the thing: when someone is living in survival mode, especially as a result of that sort of abuse, āsafeā isnāt always whatās actually physically or emotionally safe for someone. When youāre living in that sort of mindset, āsafeā can often simply become what youāre used to and know how to handle and cope with.
Otto is an intelligent older man respected in the scientific community and with the capacity to have a paternal bond with someone as shown with Peter. Now who the hell does that remind you of? Frankly, I think if Harry behaved more similarly to how we see him act while alone with people heās comfortable around or more similarly to himself in the first movie, Otto probably would have really liked him! All the things we see Otto show active irritation towards are traits Harry only expresses around Harry!
But I donāt think Harry would know how to deal with someone like Otto being kind towards him. For one, it would force him to reconcile that Norman mistreated him, something that I think his inability to accept fueled things like him going after Peter beyond the point even he thought was justified. For another, Harry is used to someone like Otto not liking him and treating him rather poorly. He is not used to someone like that treating him kindly or showing him real affection. Antagonizing Otto makes Harry feel safe because he knows how to deal with Ottoās reactions far more than he does positive contact with him.

š¦ Truly, Madly, Deeply Book Review š¦
ā #QOTD Do you believe in love at first sight? ā š¦ Sparks fly when a lovelorn romance novelist and a divorce lawyer who has sworn off relationships agree to cohost a podcast series offering dating advice to viewers. As a bestselling romance novelist, everyone thinks Truly Livingston is an expert on happily-ever-afters. Unfortunately, she feels like an imposter after catching her fiancĆ© cheating learning that her parents are separating. When she meets Colin McCory, she's anything but ready for a relationship, even if Colin drives her a little crazy. Okay, a LOT crazy. Can he change her shattered view on love, or are there no more happily ever afters?
š Excuse me while I shove my entire fist into my mouth to squeal in delight from the absolute cuteness of this. For the record, I read most of this between 10pm and 1am with my girlfriend fast asleep beside me. I lost track of how many times I had to stop reading to silence myself before some giddy, disgustingly adorable, definitely disruptive sound of glee escaped my body to keep from waking her up.
š Now that we got that out of the way, why are we not talking about this book? You bookish bats LOVE asking about book boyfriends/girlfriends. Have you MET Colin? You need to meet Colin. Just, trust me. Listen to me. Meet this man.
š It's 2am as I write this all heart-eyed, with a fire alarm chirping across the house and a storm raging outside, and I don't care about any of it because this. WAS SO. CUTTTE. From the MOMENT Truly sets eyes on Colin, all bets are off. She describes him as gorgeous, her breath hitches, she (a writer) stumbles over her words. We expect that from plenty of rom-coms, right? But the moment they get at it, their witty banter CAPTIVATES, chemistry off the charts, screaming off the page. I told you I had to pause reading multiple times? Every, EVERY time, it was because of a quick-wit exchange between these two. Truly looks at him appreciatively at first, sure, but otherwise tries shutting her heart off. Colin, though? Colin is full-on SMITTEN over her. He's lost from the beginning and KNOWS IT from the very start. And then we get to the smut and woooooh I had to get out of bed to find water and the nearest AC vent.
š And then. AND THEN they both realize they're bi but have never been with someone of the same sex, and maybe don't quite feel "queer enough" because of it (please, check the quotes I shared!). Bierasure is a real thing, but it's not often that we talk about internalized biphobia (a topic I haven't seen in a book since Perfect on Paper by Sophie Gonzales). Bisexuality is part of the queer spectrum. We're not confused, and who we're with does not change or negate our sexuality. This was such a perfect scene to read at the start of Pride Month.
š The pacing for this one was a bit off for me. While I loved every scene, the momentum doesn't pick up until the very end, and by then, we're nearing the epilogue. The Parent Trap-esque sub-plot, while important to Truly's character development, felt awkward and a bit immature (though perhaps fitting for a romantic who defined love based on her parents' relationship). My biggest hang-up is the lack of real conflict, which is more internal (Truly's doubts about love) than external (which only manifest as Truly keeps Collin at arm's length...briefly).
š¦ Recommended to fans of Practice Makes Perfect in search of a steamy, queer rom-com that's full of tension, heat, and witty banter.
āØ The Vibes āØ š Bi4Bi / Queer Romance š Contemporary Rom-Com š Parent Trap Sub-Plot š Opposites Attract š Forced Proximity š Witty Banter š Musical Theatre References š He Falls First
š¬ Quotes ā No one, and I mean no one, deserves to be living rent free inside your head if they arenāt making you come so hard your brain leaks out your ears.ā ā ā āMaybe I donāt want to play nicely with you.ā ā ā Words were her thing, and Colin gave as good as he got. ā ā Colinās praise was like swallowing the sun. It left her hot all over, flushed not just in the face but from her hairline down to her feet, damp in the creases of her elbows and her knees, uncomfortably sweaty all over. ā ā Thereās no such thing as being queer enough. Action and attraction are two different things. You could go the rest of your life never dating a woman and it wouldnāt change a thing. If anything, I think youāre the perfect person to talk about bi- erasure in media because you spent the last six years in a straight- presenting relationship that was queer because youāre queer. And the gender of your partner? Doesnāt change that.ā ā ā Truly (11: 16 p.m.): Screw you, McCrory. Colin (11: 16 p.m.): Promises, promises. ā ā As much as she got a thrill from playing verbal tug-of-war, there was an argument to be made for this tenderness, in laying down her sword and letting Colin hold her. ā ā With anyone else she mightāve considered the moment broken, but with him it just felt like turning to the next page in a book sheād never read. A book sheād left lingering on her nightstand for weeks, picking it up and putting it back down, her hopes for it so high she feared there was no earthly way the reality of it could live up to her expectations, too afraid she wouldnāt like the ending. She didnāt know what would happen next, but for the first time, the thought didnāt make her want to close the book and it didnāt make her want to flip ahead. ā ā I do like you. I like your obscure facts and how your eyes light up when you talk about them, when you share them with me. I like it that you arenāt afraid to call me out on my bullshit and that for some reason thatās completely beyond me, you havenāt given up on me even though Iāve given you a hundred opportunities and a thousand reasons why. For some reason you like me and most of the time Iām not even sure why, but you do and I like that, too. I pretty much melt when you say my name, it sounds better when you say it, and when Iām with you, itās easy to forget what Iām afraid of, but when Iām not, I guess I have a tendency to get in my head.ā ā ā āYou said it yourself; weāve all got flaws. But the day I donāt want you is the day the earth starts rotating backward, okay?ā āThatās a hell of a bold statement from a guy whoās known me two months.ā āRemember this moment in twenty years. Canāt wait to tell you I told you so.ā ā ā āI see, caffeine and kisses are the way to your heart in the morning. Good to know.ā ā ā Love launched ships and started wars and inspired sonnets and drove people to madness. Love was heaven and hell, sin and redemption. It was as real to her as any other force of nature, hurricanes and earthquakes and lightning storms and meteor strikes. It fascinated her as much as it terrified her as much as it humbled her andā Sheād spent her whole life trying to put it into words, eighty thousand of them at a time. Love had to be enough. There was no point if it wasnāt. ā

SPILLL
OKAY OKAY
spoilers for Chapter 24 :3
so, we now know that Miranda has been around for a WHILE in Readerās life; she has never been someone they would have known other than maybe seeing her in passing, and she was only around every once in a while to ensure they were still doing well.
she would not do much. she would give their mom money if needed (subtly, of course, and no one wouldāve known it was her), she would watch after them when they wandered, and for the most part, she was really just playing with variables. remember how she mentioned if it was their personality that caused the mold to manifest the way it did?
she was a scientist as she watched them grow throughout the years, and i suppose that makes everything sheās done a LOT worse. this woman has watched Reader grow up, has watched them with scraped knees and after they storm out of their home.
but it didnāt matter, did it? because she didnāt realize just how far sheād fallen until Chapter 18, when they called her āMotherā and she nearly killed them.
that is an important scene to remember, so bear with me.
iāve had this thought for a while, aside from Miranda having watched them grow up, that there was a time when they were a child that she, for whatever reason, had to watch over them.
you can make up your own assumptions and lore, but in my mind, they had been at a park of some sort and playing with their toys in the grass while their mother had become distracted, maybe with a hurt child somewhere further away in the park. she left them unattended simply because she knew everyone and didnāt think much of it.
so, Miranda watches over them, stands next to them while they happily play with their toys, none the wiser to this stranger beside them. and she watches them, studies what theyāre doing and what it might mean, and then they look up at her with such innocent eyes.
iāve had Wildflower (did i cross the line?) stuck in my head for this exact scene. Miranda sees this child and doesnāt think twice about what she knows sheāll have to do to them when theyāre older. she just wants to ensure their survival.
they look up at her so innocently, and then we flash to the scene in Chapter 18 right after they call her Mother. in a single moment, itās like sheās looking at that child again, and she realizes JUST how far sheās fallen and what sheās done to them, the horrible acts sheās committed.
for a few moments, she just sees that same child - afraid and dying, now. she made a mistake and theyāre not Eva; how could she be so foolish? what has she done?
we know the rest from here. Reader tries to kill her, fails, and though sheās now been broken out of her haze, she canāt let them know their words affected her so much. they donāt know what she does, that sheās been with them, in a way, since the beginning. that sheās watched them grow and SHE is the reason theyāve come so far in this reality.
sheās proud, but sheās furious.
and we see her standing over them as blood leaks from their nose and mouth, as well as the several holes on the body. their neck is hanging together by a thin piece of muscle and she knows sheās almost killed them.
as she stands over them, she sees that same child again, watches the light fade from their eyes. watches as she takes yet another life, though sheās unsure why this one hurts so much.
#asks#does this make sense LMAO#weāll delve deeper into this soonā¦#idk iām tired and i just hope yāall understand what im saying š

2, 4, 5, 6, 7,Ā Ā 8, 9, 11, 17, 22 for sunhao kit <3 (sorry i know its a lotā¦ this is kust my favorite type of content hmmmmm)
sorry this took so long!! was making sure my lore was alright with this fdkjgh
2. ) what is your character's āfactionā (e.g., Belobog, Xianzhou Luofu, Intelligentsia Guild, IPC, etc.)?
hmm i think zhao would probably be part of pencony in game feature wise! he's more of a traveller though and doesn't stick to one planet so it's hard. maybe the xianzhou as an alternative??
4. ) what is your characterās path (e.g., hunt, destruction, nihility, etc.)?
now this was a hard decision. on one hand, i want to make it fit with his lore where he's a bodyguard. on the other, preservation paths can be quite underwhelming & he was originally a rogue traveler. but bc the dmg they do is underwhelmingāsince they're mainly just sustainers duhāi wanted to make him a preservation who does actual dmg!! if he weren't preservation, he'd be destruction :DD
his kit summarized: he scales off of attack. so for example, his talent multiplier would be something like "applies shield equal to __% of zhao's attack plus another ___ (flat) amount every time he attacks someone inflicted with (status). shields can stack.
his eidolons would make it so that allies can get shields themselves by attacking enemies inflicted with his status mark! a little op, i know, which is why im gatekeeping that behind either e4 or e6. it's fun to think about a fully offensive sustain. we came close with fu xuan & aventurine but im a little tired of hp and def being factors lol.
5. ) what element type is your character (e.g., lightning, imaginary, wind, etc)?
ooh originally, i wanted him to be sunday's counter part element! so originally he'd either be fire or quantum based on sunday leaks. but currently im leaning towards fire bc of colour palette reasonsā¦
6. ) are they a five-star or four-star character?
five star! gotta make people grind for him y'know? LMAO plus i doubt a four star sustain would do what he does so you have to swipe.
7. ) what type of weapon does your character use?
in in-game story wise, he's a melee and also long range depending. actual game-play, he utilizes a fiery spirit in the form of a tiger to attack. and a gun hah!
8. ) what are the major visual motifs in your characterās battle animations?
emphasis on flames and the colours of them (red to blue) and also tigers!! bc. obv. y'know lol.
9. ) what are your characterās idle animations?
the first one is him twitching his ears before he reaches up and scratches at them. his tail also flicks back and forth a bit while this happens!
the second one is a little harder to describe. red flames start to exude off his body. not like an anime power up scene, but like a spirit is being lifted out of him. the faded form of an open mouth with sharp teeth starts to manifest behind him. we see looking down at his hand before he clenches his fist, the fire and scene turning blue before fizzling out.
11. ) what are your characterās basic, skill, and ultimate attacks?
basic āĀ charging up, zhao fires off his gun, dealing fire dmg equal to ____% of his attack to a single enemy target, and deals additional fire dmg to adjacent enemies.
talent ā when enemies inflicted with āPreyā status are attacked by Zhaoyi, he will provide a shield for all teammates, with the exception of himself, equal to __% of zhao's attack plus another ___ (flat). shield will last for two turns. āPreyā will last for three turns of the enemy.Ā
skill āĀ with a silent command, zhaoyi sends out a flaming tiger, dealing a large amount of fire damage equal to ___% of his attack to all enemies. In addition, there is a 100% base chance to inflict the status marker āPreyā on enemies.
ultimate āĀ deals fire dmg equal to ___% of zhaoyiās attack to all enemies. targets marked with Prey will receive bonus fire dmg equal to ___% of zhaoyiās attack.
technique āĀ after using technique, all teammates gain the "tiger's watch" effect. while under this effect, dmg received by teammates is reduced by 25%. upon entering battle, zhaoyi will immediately use his skill.
17. ) what are the best team comps for your character? which characters do they synergize well with?
any characters work with him !! if you get his combos right, he almost always provides shields. his only downside is that he doesn't provide a shield for himself. he can be played as a main dps too! so running mainly supports to buff his dmg is a viable, but also sort of meme, team comp.
building him with crit stats is highly recommended bc of his attack scaling. he has the highest base attack among preservation characters and is up there with a couple dps characters too.
the only one who wouldn't work with him well is blade due to the shields.
specific characters that would work exceptionally well: yanqing, tingyun, sparkle, bronya, dot characters, squishy people in general.
22. ) is there an event or story quest associated with your characterās debut? if yes, tell us about it!
he first appears in the story when sunday does hah! he trails behind him for the most part in the first act. the idea is that zhao already knows about the dreamreflux and the "death" that haunts penacony, but is forced to silence by the other members of the family. when he sees that the astral express may be of help, he forgoes most of what he knows to offer them a hand.
that scene where sunday gets stabbed? yeah... zhao was not happy about that. he didn't realize that was what gallagher planned in order to bring sunday to the dreamreflux. nearly lashed out and scorched the bartender before he shook it off.
#* ā ā š©. ā ā / ā ā games.#* ā ā š©. ā ā / ā ā insert ā ļæ½ļæ½āā ā zhaoyi.#āāā ā ā ā ļ¹ššš ā ā ļ¹ ā ā sunhao. ā ā ā !

Batman Exalted Triple Event - Part 1
(So as a note Tim has already Exalted by this point, however his scene does not want to be written, so we're skipping ahead. But for reference he Exalted in his Red Robin identity and almost killed Mr. Freeze on accident)
Bruce did not have a hunch or bad feeling. He awoke knowing that something was very wrong in a way he couldn't have before his exaltation. He rolled out of bed, instinctively folding space in a way he'd think about later. All the knew at the time was his feet swung from his bed in Wayne Manor and landed on a rough floor in Crime Alley.
He had no time to think about that because in front of him struggling on the ground was Jason. It wasn't an enemy or sickness, Bruce would know how to deal with those. Instead Jason seemed to be flickering in and out of existence. And with each flicker Bruce could feel as if something was in his mind, trying to pry the very memory of Jason from him.
It couldn't have him! Whatever was trying to take his son from him again couldn't have him!
He heard a soft clicking behind him. He glanced back to see a mechanical spider the size of a hamster, but still kept most of his focus on Jason.
"I am bound by Kejack's will." The spider clicked. "I can not undo what he's done."
Rage burned inside Bruce. So this was Kejack's doing. If he lost Jason again he swore-
"But I can do what he hasn't thought to forbid." The spider continued, unaware of how close Bruce had been to lashing out at it. "I know a way to save him."
Rage turned into a nearly suffocating hope. "How?" Bruce demanded, the power of his exaltation flowing from his voice.
"Time is our enemy. His inner strength and your will made manifest through your exigence have bought some time but he will soon fade regardless. If I take time to explain, he will be lost."
"I don't care what it takes. Save my son!" Bruce roared.
"Pick him up and follow me through the gate." The spider skittered away through a portal that hadn't been there a moment ago.
Bruce lifted Jason up. He felt lighter than when Bruce had lifted him as Robin. Had his exigence made him strong, or what whatever happening to Jason left him lighter. Bruce prayed to god it was the former as he followed the spider and once again vanished.
~
"Master Bruce has vanished." Alfred's urgency in his tone drawing her away from the work she'd been doing.
"I thought he was done for the day, is he not answering his coms?"
"Pardon me, I was unclear. I was not referring to Master Bruce's habit of taking off without a word. I'll send you the bedroom footage."
Oracle couldn't understand how someone could be comfortable with a security camera pointed directly at their bed. She understood the logic of it. Bruce Wayne was a kidnapping risk, and if the combat butler didn't interrupt things it wasn't like he could pull out his Batman techniques to save himself.
But the thought of a camera on her while she slept made her skin crawl. Maybe because she knew once something was created, how easily it could be let loose. Honestly Bruce probably had some crazy fans who would pay top dollar for video of him sleeping.
...if they were in Gotham he probably knew exactly who they were now. Privately pitying Bruce for getting the worst superpower, Oracle watched the video, thoughtfully trimmed to the relevant parts. Bruce sat up straight from sleep as if he'd had a nightmare, his eyes glowing blue as his power leaked from them. He swung his legs off the bed and as he went to stand... Well, Alfred was right. He vanished.
"After reviewing the footage I think it's safe to say his exaltation was doing something. From his his sense of urgency I think he became aware of something and was sent there. Which means, given the nature of his exaltation, he's likely still in Gotham. I'll start combing for him."
"Very good, Oracle. May I alert the others?"
"Please do." She didn't know the situation that would lead Bruce to be so upset, but having Bats on standby to react would only be a good thing. Her program to autoscan the multiple cameras in Gotham (from security to traffic to bird cams) had just started going full bore when Alfred contacted her again. "Master Hood cannot be reached."
"Refocusing my search on Crime Alley." Oracle immediately switched gears. Something happening to the son already he lost once would absolutely bring out that level of urgency in Bruce. Flecks of green light sparked from from her fingers to her keyboard as she searched. Code she had never seen popped up and she instinctively knew what it was, knew she shouldn't have been seeing it, and knew what the fact that she could see it meant. But that was a crisis for later. She had friends to help. She wove through the code representing fate and destiny. She saw someone else had accessed the code and...that fucker was going to pay. He didn't seem to have full access and now she could make sure he never did. Not after trying to delete Jason.
"Ketchup tried to run a wiper virus on Hood's existence. B intervened and now I can't find either of them."
"He did WHAT!" Nightwing snarled. He must have been outside, the wind was fierce.
"Greyson calm down." came Damian's matter of fact tone.
"I will not calm down! That bastard-"
"You're hurting us." Tim's voice interrupted.
"I - oh fuck. Oracle keep us informed. I've got to deal with this."
Nightwing's voice cut off and she dearly would have loved to know what was going on, but it was taking all she had to try and find Bruce and Jason.

Man, Halara's great. Anyways, back to it. We were....
RIGHT. We're in danger. I wish Halara was here. I always feel safer with them around.
That's okay. If they aren't here, then they might be at the secret lab being tortured to death by homunculus experiments choking the shit out of Makoto for thinking he could contain that much raw awesomeness. Even Yomi ran shrieking for his life once Halara hit the field. They are, without exception, the baddest ass in Kanai Ward. Top-tier unpleasant glutes.
Corroborating what Kurumi was telling us. This place was a village once, but then a toxic gas leak from a nearby mine prompted an evacuation from the village. At least, that's the official story.
I know better than to trust the official explanation for "Everyone needs to get the fuck out because rich people have decided that they own the land now." Maybe it's an eco-disaster or maybe it's gentrification. Or both! Capitalists are opportunists, after all.
Yep. Nobody can enter here, not even Peacekeepers, on account of how deadly the gas is supposed to be. The obvious place to hide a secret lab.
The presence of the nearby "zombies" means something's obviously going on here, but that's not what toxic gas typically does to people. My kneejerk reaction is that the homunculus project is responsible for... Whatever's happening in their eyes, and subsequently the rest of them.
What you would consider to be a corpse, a homunculus researcher may look at as viable resources.
That's what I was thinking. Occam's Razor says the toxic gas did that to those people, but my money's on the lab. I don't think those are actually zombies, so much as they are failed homunculi.
But we should still keep in mind the possibility that it's as simple as "gas victims".
SHIT, I guess they are aggressive. These three broke down the door and--
Wait, are those three wearing Aetheria Academy uniforms under their raincoats? Oh. Oh. Oh god no. I know who they are.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
It is NOT toxic gas. I repeat, it is NOT toxic gas. These three are our victims. We murdered them and sent them here.
These three have been haunting me since the day we killed them but I didn't expect them to do so literally. We are in Silent Hill! This is the ghost of my past trauma manifesting corporeally! I DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT, I SWEAR. T_T
Okay. Less hysterical. I take this as confirmation that these are failed homunculi. After they died, the Theater Girls' bodies were shipped to the secret lab, where they were used for homunculus experiments. Now they want to eat our brains. And they're entitled to it because we murdered them.
No, not going to think like that. We have to run.
AND NOW SOMEONE'S SHOOTING ARROWS. Have we killed any archers? I don't think we've killed any archers. Wait, there's a note. This was probably fired by a human. Do we know any archers?
Good on you, Kurumi, for grabbing that note.
Didn't expect that to be confirmed so quickly. We're moving along at a rapid pace.
Y'know, I tinkered with both "KANAI WARD SIGNATURE MEAT BUNS are cannibalism" and "Everyone in Kanai Ward is homunculus" as spitballs at various points while I was here. Maybe it's both.
Wild-ass speculation theory: The meat buns are made with human meat, which helps keep the homunculi sane and reasonable. This meat comes from the kidnapped people Number One was talking about; They're trafficked into the city and butchered to make meat buns.
When someone dies publicly, their body is brought here and basically dumped to keep up the appearance of an immortal being's "death". Separated from the sanity-granting meat buns, they degrade into the zombies we're encountering now.
That's the reason why Amaterasu always moves extremely quickly to remove a dead body from a crime scene - something that's come up a few times. The official explanation is that the Forever Rain causes the body to rot too quickly, but they do this when bodies are indoors too. In reality, they need to traffic the "dead" homunculus out of the city before everyone sees them wake up.
Maybe we weren't brought here to, like... be killed by homunculi or experimented on or whatever. Maybe we're here for the same reason all the other homunculi are. We're here because we're "dead". We know Kurumi's a native; If this theory is right, she's likely a homunculus too. We know nothing about Yuma. And none of the confirmed-outsider Master Detectives have been found to be here yet.
Everyone who's died in Kanai Ward is probably here somewhere.
...including Yakou.
Okay, so I wasn't wrong before when I said those others seemed to be lulling around dormant. Homunculi become steadily more feral, the longer they're deprived of human flesh. The Theater Girls are starving, while those others were simply hungry.
I wonder if we can "unkill" the homunculi by getting them something to eat? This would be a good reason to invest in human cloning. See how they do with lab-grown human arms and stuff.
...y'know, if my theory is true, then Icardi was screwed from the start. If his plan had worked, he would have escaped Kanai Ward and fled to the outside, then gone slowly insane from a lack of understanding for how to feed himself.
Makoto, what did you do to this city? What even makes people turn homunculus? Is it something in the rain? Is it... Is the rain altering our genetic code or something?
Is that why you wear the mask? To shield your face from whatever is happening in people's eyes that makes them change?
Is that how we survived the sinking of the sub? We were inside it when it went down. Did we die, but Makoto fished our corpse out of the river and then waited for us to wake up again?
Is that why Yomi was going to execute Martina by having her mashed in an industrial-strength presser? I thought he was just being barbarically cruel, but if the Peacekeepers are extricating corpses before they can wake back up then he'd have to know what's up, right? Crushing someone into paste might be one of the only ways to kill a homunculus.
Hey, man. Sorry about that whole surprise-murder thing. On a scale of 1 to Brains, how hungry are you right now? Do you have the emotional capacity for a chat?
I mean, you died before the Theater Girls so probably not but you had the emotional capacity to make your way to what is clearly a religious shrine, so you must have had some reasoning and comprehension skills when you first woke up.
BRAINS IT IS. THE ANSWER IS BRAINS.
There's Shachi and Icardi. Also Worshipper. If we're going to find allyship, we need a fresher-dead homunculus than Chapter 3. So. Yakou and Huesca are the only potential candidates, then.
Come on, Yakou, you gotta be around here somewhere.
How did you think "Restricted Area" was enforced? Honestly, I was expecting a huge concrete wall. We could climb that shit.
...those black and yellow warning panels look suspect. Maybe throw a stick at it or something. Might be electrified. Not that it matters if we're both unkillable immortals but being electrocuted to "death" would still hurt like hell.
After all, it would need to be strong enough to deter homunculi from doing exactly what I said: Trying to climb it.
Yep. Even better than a stick, we had a random homunculus to walk his dumb ass into it and demonstrate. Thanks, rando.
Oh, more randos. We should see if they walk into the fence too. If we pile up enough homunculi, maybe we could - No, human bodies are electricity conductors. That wouldn't work.
It's okay, it's just the Theater Girls again. I know exactly how to repel theater kids. Ahem. "Good luck on your performance of Macbeth tonight."
Can't run any further, Yuma! Do something! Anything!
ANYTHING ELSE BUT THAT, OH MY GOD.
Be fair, Shinigami. There's a reasonable chance that Yuma died again, not passed out.
Oh, that is much more of a "Secret Lab" than what Makoto showed us. I think we hit jackpot.
Can you? Hmm. Just picked up a Solution Key that says homunculi are attracted to sound. So that's interesting.

babymon, what does firstmix mean? š¤ has any information about the characters in of leaked?
hello, dear anon!!!
we donāt have any official confirmation yet, but in an interview first said that he filmed a love scene with someone outside of the main cast of only friends, so the specualtions have been running wild!!!
a lot of actors have been taken into consideration, including papang, earth, gawin, fluke, and tay, but most of the fandom believes it might be mix because he was spotted on set and heās one of the people first is closest to. im personally manifesting sea with everything i have LIKE YOU REALLY HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARD IM MANIFESTING THAT MY CLOWN MAKE UP IS /ON/ but if itās not him, then i do really hope itās gonna be mix!!!
i loved to see first and mix together in moonlight chicken and i also think they have a very nice chemistry, so i really wouldnāt mind getting more of them!!!!
THEY'RE NOT GIVING ANYTHING AWAY THO SO AT THIS POINT WE'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE
#hereās my list of reasons for believing itās sea:#1) the amount of interactions between pājojo and sea skyrocketing after pājojo visited the last twilight set#2) the only friends account on twitter following sea for a hot minute#3) first said this person improvised something they didn't plan beforehand and sea spent enough time with jimmy to pull a stunt like that#4) I JUST WANT IT REALLY REALLY BAD#ANYWAY I LOVE TO BE DELUSIONAL#but firstmix would be VERY GOOD too#also is. is babymon me š³#m: ask#why is my english so bad since yesterday ughughugh

Put On Your Raincoats | The Seduction of Amy (Rollin, 1975)
This review contains mild spoilers.
I want to start off by disclosing that I did not watch this in ideal conditions. One, the version I watched was dubbed, and not elegantly so. Two, it appeared to be truncated, running at least twenty minutes shorter than the runtime listed on IMDb. Three, it was less than pristine visually, appearing to be both cropped, and taken from a worn down VHS copy struck from a deteriorated print, with the colour scheme all out of whack. Imagine your TV screen is cracked and smeared with vaseline, and someone has messed up your display settings and hidden the remote, and youāll get an idea of what it looked like. Four (yes, four), there was a weird buzzing on the audio, as if a bee had snuck into your TV, likely through the crack in the screen, and was now rattling around the inside of your set, getting especially agitated whenever the characters started talking. So perhaps I will not do the movie justice, and I would like to see a version in a better state, but on the whole I actually didnāt mind it.
This is a hardcore porno directed by Jean Rollin, known mostly for his softcore-tinged vampire films. His hardcore features donāt seem terribly easy to come by in decent looking, subtitled copies, so I was willing to give this a shot even in a less than ideal state, given that it was dubbed in English. Whatās interesting is that even in this state, you can see his style come through. When I think of Rollinās movies, I think of a certain elegance and lightness of touch. One might guess that such a quality might be hard to grasp in a hardcore feature, especially when watching such a shitty looking and sounding copy, but here it manifests in how he frames his characters in their environments. He emphasizes how small the characters are, enhancing their sense of isolation in their comparatively cavernous settings. Itās the visual equivalent of screaming out into the void and hearing an echo. This is set in a chateau that once belonged to the Marquis de Sade, and where other directors might emphasize the sense of decadence and excess, the effect Rollin goes for is a bit more eerie, and by the end maybe a little poignant (the latter at least in intent, if not in execution). He even sneaks that sense of framing into the sex scenes, which are mostly shot in the standard hardcore style of the era, but every once in a while the camera pulls back and you get a certain charge out of seeing the characters in their striking settings. I donāt know if Iād call that charge erotic, but itās something.
I understand Rollin would cast cast certain performers in both his horror films and his pornos (Brigitte Lahaie, the most iconic actress to appear in his movies, first worked with him on a porno before he cast her in The Grapes of Death; sadly, I havenāt been able to track a copy of that porno down with either English subtitles or audio, which is my punishment for forgetting all the French I learned in public school). The actresses I immediately recognized were the Castel sisters, who are first seen hiking and giggling when one of them stops to take a leak, and later find themselves in the chateau where one of undresses the other and pushes her into a group of naked people, and then gets spanked by the one she pushed as revenge, before they both partake in a threesome. I will note that the spanking is more comedic than perverted in tone, although if you have a thing for either sister, you will likely get something out of these scenes. I will admit that I couldnāt tell which one is which, which would definitely be a problem were we to go on a double date. (Rely on the fourth person to distinguish the two, you say? Well, in this insane hypothetical where Iām on a date with the Castel sisters, itās an ā80s sitcom or Doctor Detroit style scenario where Iām running between both ends of a restaurant trying to do a dinner date with both at the same time. You see the dilemma here.) Monica Swinn also makes an appearance at the very end, although itās possible she has more screentime in the longer cut.
Now, my experience with French pornos from the era is that thereās been a certain condescension thatās popped up in a bunch of them, where the movies chide the characters for their desires. For what itās worth, Rollin plays this with some sincerity, and tries to wrest the conclusion on the heroine falling in love with the count who resides in the chateau. Iām not sure it works, as the movie doesnāt flesh out their mutual attraction enough to sell it (perhaps the longer cut succeeds here), as what we see of his brutal treatment of his previous love raises a colossal red flag (Iām not here to kink shame, but the extent to which he beats her does not seem like a healthy and safe execution of BDSM), but I appreciate the effort. And when Evelyne Thomas stares right into camera and speaks of her trepidation about love, maybe I wasnāt entirely immune to the intended effect. Now, I did watch this for Spooky Season viewing, and at least the version I saw isnāt that heavy on the horror, as we only get a few hints of BDSM AKA spooky sex (perhaps thereās more in the longer cut). But we do get scenes where the characters walk down dark and creepy corridors, in flowy sorta see-through robes (somewhere between transparent and translucent), with only a candle for light, and well, thatās some prime horror movie atmosphere.
