Hmm I’m surprised by the general lack of Crime and Punishment fanart. I thought you guys would’ve loved drawing Rodya (I can call him that, we’re buddies) as a pathetic anime twink boy. He commits axe murder. He’s feverish and delirious for like- the entire book. He has a male best friend who cares for him while he’s feverish and delirious. He’s kinda Weird About Women. This is like. Perfect for the pathetic men loving website.

My favorite TMA fact is that in one early episode, I don't even remember which some guys makes a line like "So I bought the biggest knife I could find on short notice" which is very funny to me because the largest legal knife you can own without a permit in England is like, 3 inches, or about the size of your index finger, and that's very funny to me.

She'll never escape the roller main allegations.

[steampunktendencies]

This 19th-century multi-tool from Germany has 100 different blades and a .22-caliber five-shot revolver.

This knife could be described as the Mother of all Swiss Army knives. If you count the miniatures inside the tortoise shell handle covers, it has 100 “blades.” They include pocket knife blades of every style imaginable, a serrated blade, two dagger blades, several different types of shears and scissors, an auger, a corkscrew, two saws, a lancet, button hook, cigar cutter, tuning fork, pens and mechanical pencils, mirror, straight razor, and a functional .22-caliber five-shot pinfire revolver. The one modern convenience it doesn’t seem to have is a bottle opener, but the bottle cap as we know it wasn’t invented until 1892. Source : National Museum of American History

Writing Notes: Realistic Injuries (pt. 4)

The Mechanism of Injury

Assists in establishing both the safety of the scene and guides the remainder of the primary survey.

The seriousness of the mechanism of injury is a significant clue as to the potential seriousness of the patient's actual injuries, be they external or internal.

Relaying the mechanism of injury to downstream care providers early in the course of transport helps them be better prepared and have the necessary resources available for when they are treating the patient in the near future.

A patient with a severe mechanism of injury (MOI) warns providers that they may have a patient who requires many hands/tools/teams for treatment.

Getting those people alerted and organized is a great head start for the patient.

MOIs can be divided into 2 broad categories:

Significant Injuries. Some examples:

Ejection from a vehicle.

Prolonged extrication time.

Multi-system trauma.

Motor vehicle-pedestrian/biker accidents.

Motor vehicle accidents where any occupant of the vehicle was killed.

Any fall over 3 times the patient's height.

Insignificant Injuries. Some examples:

Fights or physical altercations without loss of consciousness.

Minor injuries to isolated body parts.

Car accidents without injury or symptoms of injury to any occupant.

The division between these groups is nothing more than the likelihood that a patient with a certain MOI will present with trauma requiring intensive care. Not all patients with an insignificant MOI are free from severe injuries and vice versa.

More Mechanisms of Injury Categories used to Classify Narratives

Caught accidentally in or between objects

Drowning

Electric currents

Explosive material

Exposure to radiation

Fall

Firearm

Overexertion

Poisoning

Suffocation

Head-on collision frequently results in the rider ejecting or partially ejecting over the handlebars. Common injuries include:

Head and neck injury if no helmet in place

Thoracoabdominal injury from handlebar impact (common in children)

“Open book” pelvic fracture—a splaying open (like a book) of the anterior and posterior pelvis from striking the handlebars

Bilateral femur fracture

Skin abrasions, lacerations

Injuries are decreased when a helmet is in place in proper position and if protective clothing is worn.

Gunshot wounds (GSW) are usually intentional (suicide, homicide) but can be unintentional (hunting, gun not in holster, gun cleaning).

Some mechanisms at work with gunshots include:

Yaw: vertical and horizontal oscillation about the axis of the bullet; can result in a larger surface area on impact with the body depending on the position of the bullet on the axis at time of impact.

Tumbling: rotation of the bullet upon impact resulting in some parts of the cavity larger than others as the bullet rotates along the path.

Rifling: spiraling grooves within the barrel of the weapon put spin on the bullet as it exits the barrel; provides stability in flight along the axis.

Hollow-point bullets: deform on impact causing a larger surface area to inflict damage.

Shotgun: multiple pellets within the cartridge; also possible to have one large projectile, such as a “pumpkin ball,” both air resistance and gravity spread the pellets over distance; closer shotgun wounds result in serious large wounds as the pellets remain clumped together.

The bullet does not usually travel in a straight path. This results in the need for exploration as multiple injuries can occur although the path appears to be in a straight line. Intentional injuries may require either psychiatric support (suicide attempts) or safety (homicide attempts).

Stabbings are also usually intentional (suicide, homicide) but can be unintentional, (eg, a slip on wet floor and landing on open dishwasher with knives pointing upward). A stabbing most often:

follows a direct path,

is low velocity resulting mostly in damage along the line of the path itself, and

are of varying depth.

The type of blade affects the wound inflicted, such as straight blade versus a serrated edge.

From a forensic medicine perspective, a stab is deeper than it is long and a cut is longer than deep.

A cut differs from a blunt laceration in that the edges are clean and the direction of the wound inflicted indicates the direction of the force.

Stabs to the chest and abdomen are particularly important to investigate as the angle of the penetration may indicate that the wound crosses both cavities injuring the diaphragm in between the two.

non horny ask: what kinda irl snake would Yakumo be? venomous or non venomous?

my instinct says venomous purely because that opens up the fun possibility of magical side effects whenever yakumo bites someone (i want his venom to have a mild numbing property so he can bite me and i can finally get a decent night's sleep)

i'm openinmg up the search gtengine for this (HEY SNAKE FREAKS IN THE AUDIENCE!! IF YOU HAVE SUGGESTIONS THEN SHOW THE CLASS 👉👇👈👐)

(spoiler alert: i am no closer to an answer than when i started. we're just looking at snakes together)

flashback: i once pointed at western worm snake and laughed because BABY

but let's assign yaku a larger counterpart for when he's feeling big and brave i briefly considered the nonvenomous approach but i'm gonna joke that yakumo has a bigger oral fixation>>squeezing fixation on eiden so uh, this snake is all about the mouthparts i guess

i mean.. the snakes that constrict will inevitably hoRMPH(gulp) too so it would be reasonable to make yaku a nonvenomous squeezer. but. my bias says venom time, ,today

considering his ridic Great Serpent ancestry, he's probably gonna have a potent venom so let's look up Hella Dangerous Bitey Boys *typetypetypeclickclaxke*

side thought: are some species generally more aggressive than others? or does it vary moreso by individual? hmm. let's see if we can find a danger noodle that's reeaaaallllllly not into using its fangs as a first response

..... .......... i'm overwhelmed by choice again so i'm gonna start relying on aesthetics by which i mean altho i love defaulting to boas for their :3 face

i feel like yaku would be more of a streamlined snake skull like the neck isn't distinguished very well from the head... I wANT to see him as :3 snake puppy face but i also need him to have zero structure. absolute jello. no bones. skullless. just a *USES LINE TOOL*

wait. if i rely on Looks does that mean i can only choose IRL snakes that are black or subdued colours? because yaku doesn't want to be perceived, after all........

[eyes start to glaze over] -nondescript colouring -venomous (perhaps potently so) -not aggressive?? the type to strike ONCE , or wait-- is he more of a multi-striker.. fast? no... he seems like he'd be slow..if Dark Nova/Shadow Lineage is any indication..? slow OHKO heavy hitter? no, not "slow". HESITANT heavy hitter? ... -heat sensing organs? or just drawn to the heat? THE TYPE TO ONLY PREY ON OTHER VENOMOUS SNAKES--no no that's not right yaku will eat everything uhhhhhh

[SHAKES MY HEAD VIOLENTLY LIKE A WET DOG REBOOT]

call me basic but i like the look of mambas....

(sadly the black mamba doesn't have black scales but LOOK AT THAT MOUF!!!!!!!!!!)

wait how about a snake that hangs out in east asia? MOUNTAIN KEELBACK????? lil diamonds all along the back .nice

LOOK AT THE MASSIVE ORBS on *THIS* keelback.......

would he be arboreal like those funky vine snakes? mmm.., unlikely? i don't think yaku has shown much of a desire for heights... at least not yet (flashback to Puzzling Investigation Blade's impromptu takeoff)

what about a rattlesnake??? err... nah... yaku doesn't seem like much of a defensive butt wiggler....

Now i'm rethinking my entire instinct on VENOMOUS because ...Dark Nova 2 had yaku going snake-ish and eiden was ALL UP IN HIS fangs but he didn't feel any ill effects besides, you know, the physical obstacle of yaku shoving forked tongue down his throat-- EURYJK WHAT DO I DO . look at more cool snakes

OKAY BUT WHERE ARE THOSE SNAKES WITH THE PRETTY LOWER LASHES LIKE THE EYELASH VIPER, BUt LOWER lashes???

CAN I GET A LOOK AT ONE OF THOSE? do they exist? did i hallucinate the glorious snake lower lashes? do they belong to another reptile? boo.......

WWAIT NO, RIGHT, THE EYES, I SHOULD HAVE STARTED WITH THE EYES THAT'S AN EASY WAY TO NARROW DOWN A YAKUSNAKE

ok.ok. slit eyes. but a lil squiggly. thunderbolt eyes? the creative freedom of it all. let's go with slit eyes but wibbled by tears...

HOLD UP ! HIS EYES LOOK LIKE A TOKAY GECKO'S . IS YAKUMO ACTUALLY JUST A REALLY LONG GECKO?????

DESCENDANT OF THE LEGENDARY GREAT GECKO...........

[howlingday]

idea: Whitley having a Swiss Army knife as a weapon. Not like a fancy, multiple weapons in one Swiss Army knife you’d expect from a show like RWBY, just a regular Swiss Army knife with a larger than usual blade. It fits since whitley isn’t really a combatant and is more suited to out of combat situations, so his weapon has out of combat utility. Also the schnees tend to favor bladed weapons, with Weiss’s rapier, Winter’s saber, and Nicholas’s anime lookin’ sword. Weiss is proud of Whitley for deciding to learn how to defend himself somewhat but is a bit disappointed by his choice of weapon.

"It just doesn't look all that impressive." Weiss criticized. "There's not even a slot for dust application."

"I wanted something simple and easy to use." Whitley grumbled. "I'm not going out to save the world. I'm simply having every tool I need to solve whatever problem I come across." He flipped out a screwdriver. "If there's something that needs screwed in, or screwed out, I use this." With two more flips, the screwdriver receded, and a wrench took its place. "If I need to turn a nut or a bolt, then I use this. It's not different from your use of multiple dust in one weapon."

"Ooh~! What's this~?" Before Weiss could argue with her brother, her leader arrived to fondle his weapon. "It looks really neat!"

"W-Well..." Whitley cleared his throat before stepping away with his multi-tool. "This is Einer-Für-Alle, or EFA for short, and it is a multi-tool with more than a dozen tools for just all of your household needs! Seals? Tightened! Screws? Installed OR removed! Why, it even has a knife in the event of defending yourself! Yes, the EFA is perfect for every man or woman looking for efficiency!"

"Ugh... Did you have to use your sales pitch voice?" Weiss groaned.

Ruby giggled. "I like it! It kind of makes me wish I had one of my own. This is probably the best thing I've seen in, like, a week~!"

"O-Oh, uh, th-thank you..." Whitley muttered, face red as an apple.

"Oh, we gotta go." Ruby took hold of Weiss' hand. "See ya later, Weiss' bro!" Ruby then ran off.

"Y-Yes... See you..." Whitley turned away, stiffly walking down the hall until he turned a corner. From there, he leaned against the wall and looked to his creation. All of a sudden, it seemed to have a new light to it. Something that made it feel almost... heavenly...

'I like it~! This is probably the best thing I've seen in, like, a week~!'

Whitley felt himself reinvigorated. If this impressed her, then he had to try harder! Go bigger! Bolder! With pink on his cheek and EFA in his hand, he swiftly made his way to his room. Blueprints won't draft themselves!

[ SHAVE ]: sender sits in the receiver's lap so they can carefully shave the last of the receiver's stubble from their face.

The smooth finish of the razor's handle is cool beneath Legault's touch as he traces a finger along its edge. It's a straightforward design with little embellishment, but well-sharpened for proper use—a tool that befits its owner, he thinks.

A well-sharpened blade in a well-sharpened knight's hand does little good if his arm can't stay steady, though. An assassin knows well enough how easy it is for a well-placed injury to hinder a one's motor skills. Heath's current state following a scuffle up in the mountains is evidence enough of that.

Thankfully, an assassin's hand is pretty steady too.

"I think the stubble's quite becoming, honestly. But if you hate it this much..."

He curls a finger beneath Heath's chin, urging him to tilt his face upward. His eyes follow the shape of the knight's larynx dipping down toward his shirt collar, knowing all too well the arteries that frame it beneath the skin.

"Just hold steady now."

With the way his own pulse makes itself known in his throat, the low instruction is directed toward himself just as much as it is Heath.

Heath's never been one to enjoy facial hair. He doesn't grow it well, but it grows relatively quickly, which is a poor combination. Shaving has become an effortless part of his daily routine, his razor sharpened alongside his lance.

Unfortunately, his chin's starting to look a bit like a meadow today. Turns out an injury to his dominant hand makes it impossible to safely shave, and of course he's out on a multi-day assignment.

Naturally, it's with Legault. Because the universe has it out for Heath.

It starts with an offhanded comment. Legault says something about him doing something new with his looks, says it looks handsome or some hogwash. Heath, used to his antics, retorts that of course he'd say that, but he hates it. It'd be gone if not for that stupid lucky shot...

Legault gets all worried about the severity of the wound, which Heath's admittedly been downplaying, but it's just because he knows how these things heal. He can swing a lance just fine as long as he's careful. Fine motor skills are another thing, though.

And then Legault, audacious as ever, half-jokingly offers to do the shave for him.

And Heath, who's seemingly lost all sense, agrees.

Neither man seems to be expecting that response. But neither man backs down. Which is how Heath's ended up with a blade at his throat and his heart half-caught in it, Legault's presence on his lap impossible to ignore.

"I promise you, it'll get less flattering by the day." Heath's voice is low, keenly aware of the coldness of the razor flirting with his skin in contrast to the warmth of Legault's touch. He suppresses a shudder. "You'd sing a different tune in a week."

Legault could do whatever he wanted to him, like this. There is an element of trust here, control bequeathed of his own will to a man he once avoided on principal.

I win.

As Legault skillfully works away at the offending stubble, Heath's mind can't help but wander to the last time someone he trusted held a blade so close to him. It's admittedly not a great distraction from certain physical reactions he's trying to tamp down, but it's hard to resist.

Lachius had straddled him, too. In a different position, in very different circumstances, but the sharpness against his rabbit-quick pulse is unchanging, the tension laying thick as ever in the air.

(He cannot think about what followed, that fateful day. That'd betray his internal struggles to Legault in perhaps the worst and most undeniable way possible. He'd rather just die at that point.)

Still, Heath's mind continues its trek. Desire and grief intermingle, a longing that he's done a decent job of suppressing. Legault and Lachius are distinct, but he cannot deny the similarities as they come up.

How would they get along? They'd have a good time teasing Heath together, that's for sure. The combination of dry wit and playfulness would be a nightmare. It'd take Legault longer to earn Lachius' trust than even Heath's, though. Especially if he'd survived...

Well. Heath is out of the danger zone. One of them, at least. His chest aches, and it's hard to keep his breath entirely steady, but if he just sits and quiets his mind, it'll be over soon enough.

"You're good at this," he manages during a lull. He can't see it just yet, but he can feel it, and there's plenty of evidence on Legault's own face. It's hard not to see, from here. "Transferable skills, eh?"

He isn't looking forward to the void Legault will leave (that Lachius has left). But tempting fate like this is more reckless than he has any right to do.

Impact Play: A Comprehensive Guide

Impact play is a form of sexual activity involving consensual striking or hitting of the body for pleasure. It can range from light spanking to more intense forms like flogging or caning. This guide will explore the basics of impact play, its various types, reasons for its appeal, associated risks, safety measures, and aftercare.

What is Impact Play?

Impact play is the practice of individuals receiving physical impact for sexual gratification. This can include being spanked, slapped, whipped, or flogged, among other forms. The pleasure derived from impact play can be purely physical, stemming from the sensation of pain, or it can be intertwined with psychological elements, such as power dynamics and role-playing.

The appeal of impact play varies from person to person. Some common reasons include:

- Physical Sensation: The sensation of pain, especially when controlled and consensual, can be highly arousing for some individuals.

- Power Dynamics: Impact play can be a way to explore power dynamics and role-playing, with one partner taking on a dominant role and the other a submissive one.

- Emotional Release: Impact play can be a cathartic experience, allowing individuals to release pent-up stress or tension.

- Exploration and Novelty: Engaging in impact play can be a way to add excitement and novelty to sexual experiences.

Types

Impact play encompasses a wide range of practices, each offering distinct sensations and levels of intensity. Some common types include:

- Spanking: The most common form, involving striking the buttocks with an open hand or a paddle.

- Paddling: Using a flat, rigid implement like a paddle, cane, or riding crop to deliver controlled strikes.

- Whipping: Employing a flexible implement like a whip or belt to create a stinging sensation.

- Flogging: Similar to whipping but using a flogger with multiple tails for a more intense impact.

- Caning: Using a cane, often made of wood or bamboo, to deliver forceful strikes.

- Slapping: Striking with an open hand, typically on the buttocks or thighs.

- Punching: Delivering a controlled punch, usually on the buttocks or thighs.

Tools

Here's a breakdown of common impact play tools, their characteristics, and considerations for choosing the right one:

Whips:

- Types: Single-tailed whips (like bullwhips or snake whips) and multi-tailed whips (known as floggers).

- Materials: Leather, vegan leather, paracord (waxed or unwaxed).

- Sensation: Stingy, with a sharp, focused impact.

- Considerations: Single-tailed whips offer a concentrated sting, while floggers provide a wider, more dispersed impact. The material choice affects the whip's flexibility, durability, and overall feel.

Paddles:

- Materials: Wood, silicone, leather, vegan leather.

- Sensation: Thuddy, with a solid, dispersed impact.

- Considerations: Paddles are wider and heavier than whips, delivering a more substantial feel. Some paddles have textured surfaces for additional stimulation.

Slappers:

- Design: Similar to paddles but with an additional flexible blade for a slapping sound.

- Sensation: Thuddy with a distinct slapping sound.

- Considerations: Slappers are more controllable than whips and floggers, making them suitable for beginners[2].

Riding Crops:

- Design: Long, slim handle with a tip (popper) made of silicone, leather, or vegan leather.

- Sensation: Precise strikes, ranging from gentle caresses to firm smacks.

- Considerations: Riding crops offer control over the force applied, making them versatile for different levels of intensity.

Canes:

- Materials: Wood (bamboo), acrylic, metal.

- Sensation: Sharp, stinging impact, with a smaller surface area for a more concentrated sensation.

- Considerations: The material affects the cane's flexibility and the intensity of the impact. Bamboo canes offer a thuddy feel, while acrylic canes provide a sharp sting. Metal canes are typically used by experienced individuals due to their harsher impact.

Other Implements:

- Hands: The most basic and versatile tool, allowing for a range of impacts from gentle spanking to forceful slapping.

- Feet: Can be used for light kicks or more forceful strikes, depending on the desired sensation.

- Belts: Can be used for whipping or spanking, offering a different feel than dedicated whips or paddles.

- Spoons: Wooden spoons can be used for spanking or slapping, providing a unique sensation.

When choosing an impact tool, consider the following factors:

- Desired Sensation: Do you prefer a thuddy, solid impact or a sharp, stinging sensation?

- Intensity Level: Are you a beginner or an experienced player?

- Material Preferences: Do you have any allergies or sensitivities to certain materials?

- Control and Accuracy: How important is it for you to have precise control over the force and location of the impact?

- Visual Appeal: Do you have any aesthetic preferences for the tool?

Risks

While impact play can be enjoyable and fulfilling, it also carries inherent risks if not practiced safely and responsibly. Some potential risks include:

- Injury: Improper technique or excessive force can lead to bruises, welts, cuts, or even more serious injuries like bone fractures.

- Internal Damage: Striking sensitive areas like the kidneys, neck, or tailbone can cause internal injuries.

- Emotional Distress: If boundaries are not respected or communication is lacking, impact play can lead to emotional distress or even trauma.

Mitigating risks

To minimize risks and ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, it is crucial to prioritize communication, consent, and proper technique. Here are some essential steps:

- Open and Honest Communication: Discuss your desires, boundaries, and limits with your partner. This includes areas you are comfortable being struck, the level of intensity you prefer, and any pre-existing injuries or sensitivities.

- Clear Consent: Explicitly consent to each action and ensure that both parties are comfortable with the chosen activities and implements.

- Safe Words: Establish a safe word or gesture that either partner can use to stop the activity immediately if they feel uncomfortable or the intensity becomes too much.

- Proper Technique: Learn the proper techniques for using different implements and practice on inanimate objects before engaging with a partner.

- Safe Zones: Focus on striking fleshy areas like the buttocks, thighs, and calves, avoiding bony areas or sensitive regions.

(I can't remember the original artist cred to them!)

Aftercare is an essential part of impact play, ensuring both partners' well-being and comfort after the session. Aftercare looks different for everyone but here's are some examples:

Aftercare

Physical aftercare:

- Assess for Injuries: Gently examine the areas that were impacted for any signs of bruising, welts, cuts, or other injuries.

- Apply Cold Therapy: Applying a cold compress or ice pack wrapped in a towel to the impacted areas can help reduce swelling and inflammation.

- Moisturize: Use a gentle moisturizer to soothe and hydrate the skin, especially if it's dry or irritated.

- Pain Relief: Over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help manage any discomfort.

- Avoid Irritants: Avoid using harsh soaps, perfumes, or lotions on the impacted areas, as they can further irritate the skin.

Emotional aftercare:

Any tips on maintaining my clippers? Im a woman who tries to keep a buzz cut but my clippers get all hairy and junked up so quick I was wondering if I was doing something wrong or if i just have a lot of hair? Thanks!!!!!

first, make sure you are remembering to oil the clipper. a tiny little drop of oil (from the bottle that came with your clippers) between the blades is important to keep it from getting gummed up.

however, there will always be some hair getting stuck... thankfully they make a tiny brush just for this!

usually its one of these two styles*:

with the clipper OFF(!) and any plastic guard removed, use the brush to sweep away any built-up hair. for hard-to-reach areas, pinch a small amount of bristles between the fingers of the hand that is already holding the brush, so you can squeeze that thin bundle into gaps and scrape out stuck hair. the image on the left is zoomed in, but that style actually has a thin, pointy handle. you may have also been given a teeny tiny brush with the clippers, but it probably sucks tbh. anyways do this whenever, its totally normal to stop in the middle of a cut if its gummed up.

besides that, you want a can of multi-purpose clipper cleaner:

turn the clipper on, spray the blades for a few seconds, turn the clipper off, optionally shake lightly if its too wet. let it sit for a minute to kill any germs. do that every time you're ready to start using them. (it comes after the oil step, and if you are cutting others' hair, do this between each person)

if there is stuck hair after you've sprayed it, turn it back on and hold it at whatever angle vibrates it DOWN out of whatever crevice its stuck in. (so hold it sideways, upside down, etc whatever points the hair down)

after you're finished using the clippers for today, remember to brush them, spray them, and importantly dry them off completely with a cloth towel, don't leave them wet. (also, don't use them on wet hair if you can help it.)

sorry if this sounds like a lot, I just wanted to be thorough. this kind of turned into a complete "clipper care guide" on accident.

*the one on the right is technically not for that, its for cleaning excess cut hairs off of the customer's head... but I find it a very convenient tool anyways.

This time we'll talk a great deal about Dizzy's Movelist History:

Frozen State (this mechanic dates back to BlazBlue's Jin Kisaragi, believe it or not… though this time you don't have to mash out of frozen state, you're in it until you get hit out of it or it thaws you out after a while), Frozen state can also extend "delayed combos" to some degree (similarly to Sub Zero Combos in Mortal Kombat).

"I used this to Catch Fish" (Formerly called Arctic Impaler): This used to have a high launch property, but it also have a Flame version in Xrd (For Searing Cod) a.k.a. "Fire Pillar". Now it more realistically freezes the opponent for combos instead of leading in to Air combos. Be thankful that you don't have to worry about a precise FRC Point anymore!

Ice Field: (They finally gave Dizzy a tool to maintain her distance from rushdown opponents, though you might have to get used to Ice-skating a bit when this is active, it also seems to impact the Momentum of various attacks. Just remember they can still airdash over the Ice to approach. If the opponent knocks Dizzy down in this state, the Ice will most likely STILL break, so watch out for that too.)

For Roasting Chestnuts : (Formerly called "We used this to get Fruit off Trees" / "Skull Crusher" Spear / Ice Spear/Flame Spear"): It's worth noting that older versions of this move had a great amount of tracking on the opponent's position. Also the original version of Skull Crusher had an Electric Shock Property, instead of Ice or Fire. It also hit twice: on startup and the projectile itself. The Xrd version of Necro's attack could charge up to three instances of the spear to attack opponents for extremely high flame damage (easily a Charge Attack if GG1 mechanics were applied). Dizzy's EX Fighting style could also do this move in mid-air!

We Talked alot Together (Formerly called "Hunger Strike"): This move had multiple versions, including a multi-bite, long range tracking bite, a Flame Laser, A Shield that absorbed an attack, and Dizzy's Gold Form Bits could even be controlled manually as long as they were out and active. In fact, so long as they WERE active, Dizzy could not be hit when they were nearby, as they would absorb hits in place of Dizzy. Necro's Flame Fish would also absorb a hit and counter-attack as well! By the way, the Flame Version was once called "We Fought a Lot Together". Most infamously, the Fish Laser could track upwards and completely dominate the airspace in front of Dizzy with the right setup, particularly when used with Impact Bubbles and Flame Bubbles.

Michael Sword (worth noting it is pronounced similarly to Mikhail Blade, of Guyver fame!): Dizzy's original EX version attacked the opponent diagonally in a downward cut, as opposed to the version Justice once used. This time though, Dizzy seems to have perfected the technique, and it even still has a Lightning Property as well! In addition, Dizzy uses her Arm and transforms it in to a Wing, similarly to how Justice used her long Fingers to morph them in to a blade. Last but not least, Justice had an Aerial version of Michael Sword in later patches of Accent Core Plus R, so Dizzy still has that untapped potential (including Saperia Trance, Justice' Forcebreak Dash Attack).

Wings of Light (also called Hikari no Tsubasa): This was originally a BOSS EXCLUSIVE attack for Gold Dizzy, and it took three different forms: a giant angled ray, a pillar of Light that erupted from the ground, and an Omni-Directional blast… worth noting, the Strive version seems to drain Health similarly to the Omni-directional version, however it does this as an Attack Field, and not an actual attack. Originally, Wings of Light was triggered after Dizzy performed multiple FRCs (Force Roman Cancels) and was technically a BURST OVERDRIVE, so it cost a great amount of Psyche Burst for her to use. This time, however, it drains her Tension gradually, though I do not know yet (as of this writing) if she can be hit out of the Wings of Light state.

Imperial Ray (partially derived from "When Necro Gets Angry/Necro Unleashed"): Originally Imperial Ray was a chain projectile and would drive an opponent backwards, forcing them to block for a long time or take a large amount of damage. This time, Dizzy's focused on a Trap-based Imperial Ray (though it still does not do as many hits as the original Imperial Ray Justice once had). Since this move is now a Meter-Reversal, Dizzy needs to manage her Tension carefully.

Gamma Ray: This move is mostly unchanged, however it is definitely not the Instant Kill version "Emotional Gamma Ray" that Necro is capable of! The original version was a massive Dragon's Breath attack, and it also started off with Necro firing two lasers above Dizzy's head, forcing the opponent to block in mid air if they didn't read the attack fast enough! This move by itself did not have much use when the opponent was up close and personal to Dizzy, and would often wiff up close, however I wouldn't necessarily think the same is true of the Strive version, so be careful!

Moves Lost: "Please Leave Me Alone"/Impact Bubble "What Happens when I'm TOO LONELY"/Flame Bubble "For Putting Out the Light"/Ice Scythe "The Light was so Small at First"/Flame Scythe Michael Sword EX (Diagonal Version)

Overdrives Lost: When Necro Gets Angry (Necro Hell/Unblockable Floor Trap) Necro's Hell Trap (EX Trap Overdrive Counter) Necro Install (EX Overdrive) Don't Be Overprotective (Ice Mirror)

Lost Instant Kill: "The power…I can't Contain it!" (Dizzy transforms in to her Gear Form and launches a powerful explosion.) Emotional Gamma Ray

Closing Notes: Dizzy is technically a "Replica of Justice" if Dr. Paradigm's GG2 Overture comment about her is to be believed, so there's no reason to doubt she can't do anything Justice could do. But, because of her nature, her battle strength will keep evolving, even now… so it's actually better if she DOESN'T FIGHT ever AGAIN!

Also, because of Strive's current mechanics, there are a lot less mid-air attacks than previous games had, but that might not affect Dizzy as much in this game, given her full potential.

Dizzy also has the power to Revive and Command Gears as a Command Type, so her true power is an untapped mystery at this point in the story!
