Do the trio know sign language or are able to speak other languages for others who speak differently?

Eclipse: and now in the restaurant, many of our late Boss's old customers only speak Cantonese, so we still make use of our programming. The only learning curve we had was familiarizing ourselves with all the regional dialects and slang.

(apologies if i got the signs wrong, i'm still an ASL newbie, but i hope to learn more in the future!)

Fun Fact: did you know that in Cantonese slang, white rice can be referred to as 靚仔, which literally translates to "handsome boy". and the slang for congee is 靚女, "pretty girl"

do with that knowledge as you will 🍚

Hazband 2: Band AU

Buckle Up, Buttercups. This is gonna be looooooooooong.

-"Insider Bands" playing on VH666 streaming services on a computer monitor / TV screen sitting on the desk against the far wall-

Charlie: (laying on her belly on her bed and chewing her nails like a cartoon goat chews through a field of grass as she watches the TV)

Riff Rascal: Alright, dudes, dudettes, non-duders, and rock-aholics! That was Simple Plain's newest single "Why Are We Kids?!". Coming up next, our guy, our big shredder, our big bad-

????: Dammit, Riff!!!! Just get on with it!!!

Riff Rascal: Yo, sorry, boss lady! Coming up next, we have our expert in all things metal and shredding, Axel Steelgrave, conducting a super secret, super exclusive interview with one of Hell's latest and greatest! Stay tuned!

Charlie: (whines and plasters her face into the comforter) Fuck! I really messed up! I shouldn't have released that album, guys! What if Vaggie doesn't like girls outside of the metal scene?! Then I'm just the creepy, stalker, pop diva who messages her on Sinstagram every once and a while! And likes all of her posts! And comments on each picture! And-

Razzle: (trying to finish polishing Charlie's hooves after a full pedicure and hoof care) Baap?

Charlie: So? It was only ever mentioned once in a tabloid that she was once in a poly ship with a man and woman before. Nothing set in stone. Who listens to tabloids anyway? She said she was a lesbian in her last interview with Angel Metal Monthly.

Dazzle: (brings up a wide array of nail polishes) BaaaAaaAp?

Charlie: Yes! She messages me back almost immediately after every message I send her, but that doesn't mean the's interested in me. She hasn't been online in a week! (rolls over and flops onto her back, covering her eyes with her arm) Not since Katie Killjoy did that whole news segment on my new single music video and album.

Dazzle: (painting Charlie's hooves in a deep red hue called "Wicked Sinister") Baaaaaaap. BaaaAAaaap. Baap. (clicks his hoof in a way that's supposed to look like a sassy finger snap and blows heated air over the paint)

Razzle: Baap! (scowls) Baaap. Baaa. Baap!

Charlie: Thanks, Razzle. No, Dazzle. I really don't think this is some kind of rebound. I really started liking her during the Battle of the Bands gig over at the Jackpot Hotel and Casino. She was the first person who didn't openly laugh at me being there even though I was the only pop singer there.

-VH666 blares back with a heavy metal guitar riff-

Axel Steelgrave: Hey, good evening, everyone. How's it going? Tonight, we have a very special guest. (camera pans out to show Vaggie sitting next to Axel in an interview chair) Lead singer, guitarist, and rocking girl, Vaggie the Steel Vagina from Fallen Angels.

Charlie: WHAT?!?!?!?!?! (crocodile death rolls around in her excitement and falls out of bed, completely wrapped in a burrito, and worm crawls over to the TV) RAZZLE!!! DAZZLE!!! TURN IT UP!!!

Razzle: (salutes) Baap! (grabs the remote and turns up the volume)

Dazzle: (sad bleats as he looks at the mess of nail polish everywhere) baaaaaap.....

Vaggie: (trying not to snarl at the name) It's just Vaggie, Axel.

Axel Steelgrave: Oh, sure. Sure. Well, thank you so much for taking the time to come and see us. Not gonna lie. We were shocked to hear that you were coming out with a new single so quickly.

Charlie: (plasters her face to the screen) New Single?!?!?!?!?!

Vaggie: (blushes slightly) Well, I figured after hearing the Princess's new album and call-out, I should work on a reply.

Angel: (from behind the camera man) You wouldn't have had ta write and record a whole new song and music video if you just sent 'er a video of you jacking it all week! I've never heard dat vibrator work so hard in its life! I swear I smelled smoke last night!

Charlie: (squeals, gasps, and shrieks all at once and falls backwards)

Vaggie: (jumps up from her seat) Angel! What the Fuck?!

Axel Steelgrave: Well, well, well, I guess that answers my next question. I take it this new single is going to be good news for the Princess?

Vaggie: (still steaming as she sits back down and tries to compose herself) I know you have the video on hand. Why not play it and let the fans see for themselves?

Axel Steelgrave: I couldn't have said it better myself. (to the camera) With that being said, let's take a look at a sneak peek of Fallen Angel's new single: "Dear, Charlie - For Somewhere Better".

-Video cuts to some random point in the music video where Vaggie is standing in black leather skirt that has the leather ripped into strips in a hoola-skirt style, black halter tank top, thigh high leather heeled boots, and black fingerless gloves, holding and shredding a guitar. Angel is a pink, fabulous gay disaster on drums while one set of hands works a keyboard.-

Vaggie: (singing) We'll ignite. Still dreaming wide awake. On the hunt for "Somewhen brighter". Pull me close now, and I'll dream until my dying day. Till we create a new "Somewhere better". The promise of a life. Like a thousand suns inside my broken heart. I can see through your eyes. And embrace the flame that guides me through the night.

-Video Cuts back to the interview-

Axel Steelgrave: (freaking out excitedly) Wow! That's quite the statement! Good on you, Steel Vagina!

Vaggie: Vaggie.

Axel Steelgrave: Before we end this exclusive, is there anything you want to say to the Princess in case she's watching?

Vaggie: (Face falls briefly as her eye widens and a blush colors her face) Oh.... (shakes her head to compose herself, looks into the camera, and makes a telephone gesture) Call me~

Axel Steelgrave: (laughing) Alright! You heard it here first, folks. "Dear, Charlie" will be available on HellTunes tonight at midnight. Thank you all so much for tuning in. And, as always, stay rocking.

Charlie: (finally managing to unravel the blanket and sitting on the floor with a bright red blush) C-Call.... Her.... She wants me to call her... (jumps up and down like a teenager in a bad "not another teen movie" while holding Razzle and Dazzle's hooves) SHE WANTS ME TO CALL HER!!!! (pauses) How?! I don't have her number!

-DING!-

Charlie: (dives for her phone on the floor and opens a new Sinstagram message)

FallenAngelVaggie: Hope you got a chance to watch "Insider Bands" tonight. Talk to you later? Maybe over coffee? XXX-XXX-XXXX

Charlie: (takes a deep breath) SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Vaggie: (leaning against the wall of the VH666 studio, holding her phone against her chest, and taking a long drag of a cigarette)

Angel: Hey! I thought you were quitting! (yoinks the cigarette and plops it between his lips)

Vaggie: Dammit, Angel! I said I'd be done once my case is empty! (digs in her pocket and pulls out an angelic steel cigarette case) It still has four left! I haven't even lit up in nearly six months!

Angel: I know! Proud of you for that. That interview rile you up that much that you gotta wreck six months of hard work?

Vaggie: Ugh! (slams her back into the wall) You think Charlie got the message?

-squeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Angel: (looks up at the sky towards the Morningstar Mansion where it looks like fireworks are going off on one of the balconies) Oh, I think she got it~

The fate of all popular anime from the late 90s and early 2000s seems to be either a baller ass remake that follows the actual plot of the Manga or some dogshit sequel about their kids that turns all your old pals into the worst, dumbest parents of all time.

No One Lives Forever - Oingo Boingo

Not Halloween without an Oingo Boingo track! This one's a personal favorite, had it on repeat for a while. The colors from this one probably drew a bit from the album art tbh.

63. for  a  competitive  starter.

Metal Sonic is not often sent to retrieve badniks. They are an unending force, mass-manufactured to be endlessly used by their creator. Metal understands this of himself, too--He is not the only him that has ever existed. However, his current model is the one still intact because it is the superior one. A perfect rival to Sonic, a trusted tool for Eggman to use to help shape a new world, and a too-sharp sword wielded against their enemies. Today, however, he is following a signal. What he finds is far from what he was told to expect: Another him.

Metal Sonic doesn't have the largest capacity for positive emotions. Negative ones, on the other hand, are easy for him to access. As this older model comes into view, its signal proving itself to nearly match his own, he feels...Angry. There can be only one Sonic. There are already two because of his double's refusal to submit. Anymore is far too many. If the unit refuses to comply with Metal's directive of capture and deliver, well. A show of force may be necessary.

That doesn't bother Metal in the slightest. To show his capability and crush any trying to be Sonic is exciting for him. He fires his engines, heat blasting from his chest as he races to the ground to face the copy head-on, bell-like beeps ringing out as a warning: ">> Stand down and prepare for removal as required via Eggtech Assemble and Reservice Protocol." Badniks are meant to come when called. Clearly this one is somehow refusing commands. Metal Sonic has been guilty of rebellious coding himself, but it was removed and he is glad for it. If the unit won't see reason, he will simply have to help it in the same way, won't he? Or destroy it.

I’m actually thinking Shizuku has been doing pretty okay with giving Shiho boundaries iirc. Yes, she would still occasionally hugs and gets a bit closer to Shiho. But Shizuku actually been also realizing this bad habit of hers and tries to give Shiho her space.

I could be wrong tho since it’s been a while since I’ve fully caught up with both l/n and mmj stories

It's been a fair bit better lately if the area conversations are anything to go by yeah. But early game they're sooo awkward

Like I'm sorry Shizuku I love you to death but this is not good sibling behaviour 😭 Shiho wasn't even rude about it how about you just take one step to the side and give her space to breathe cmon.

My pet peeve in question is actually not necessarily their canon portrayal but the way it's brushed off and discussed in fandom. Like I'm sorry but "Shiho is a horrible sister to Shizuku because Shizuku is so kind and caring towards her and Shiho only responds aggressively and doesn't care about her at all" is a deranged and somehow strangely popular take (also... Did we forget that Shiho had bad reputation during Main Story and avoided people to protect them, which is likely why she didn't want Shizuku to talk with her at school?). Like their relationship is deeper than that but people just Need one sibling to be the villain somehow.

I got one pair of plastic frames and another metal pair and my lenses are so thick that they barely fit in the plastic one and are more than twice as thick as the metal one lmao

false king metal sonic would be so tragic because unlike Main Metal sonic who’s always been the tool/weapon by Eggman and nothing else, judging by the backstory for false king arthur, this metal sonic lived a life where he likely have loving parents/guardians and formed friendships while steadily become a proper king to rule the kingdom so of course he’d be absolutely enraged that Sonic comes along being the true king arthur and basically took everything that he worked so hard for in his life from his perspective

truueee, for this version he actually has a full on backstory, plus it's implied merlina may have corrupted the false king in some way to get him out of the way so she could do her plan if I remember correctly, the knights even point out he wasn't this mad of a king before

so for false king metal, he was likely created to fulfill the prophecy by merlin, as sonic wasn't here and there was nobody to fulfill that role, so the best option was to make something to fulfill that role!

Faulse king metal of course had to have some form of actual life and childhood before, making friends, learning how life works, how to be a good ruler, before finally coming to power, and ruling as a pretty damn good king for a while.

But of course, things can't stay the same forever, merlin eventually died, and while false king metal could mourn and move on, merlina could not, resulting in her want to freeze the kingdom in a perminant stasis.

mirlina knows something like metal WILL last forever, after all, he isn't technically alive, the closest he even can get to decay is rust, and even then he might be enchanted so that isn't an issue, so she knows if she does this right she can make this kingdom last forever, but false king metal won't agree with her.

Faulse king metal knows the world will change around him, he was likely already warned of the consequences of his longevity, he's larned to accept it, and he likely wouldn't agree with merlina's plan even if it's just on the grounds of 'you could actually destroy everything if you mess up'

So, merlina needs to get creative, clearly the prophecy wasn't truly fulfilled, faulse king metal doesn't have Excalibur, he wasn't properly chosen, he was placed into this role, so in order to get past metal, she must overthrow him using the true king as a pawn, slowly yet subtly driving faulse king metal mad, she'd rather not have to do this, but in her view it's for the greater good.

faulse king metal was always very bold and prone to outbursts, but as he's driven mad the outbursts become more common, they get worse, the plan starting to backfire when metal resorts to attacking merlina, the summoning if sonic only making it worse as now there's the threat of being replaced by some random copy!

Resulting in faulse king metal as more of as tragic villain, a king created to rule, driven mad by the choices of another, his already existing flaws amplified to the point he actually can't rule properly anymore without becoming a tyrant, only to be defeated and replaced by a complete stranger from another world, the one the prophecy you were made to fulfill was ACTUALLY about.

story points may be a little wonky cause I'm typing this fast xD
