my acotar unpopular opinions

taking this time to come out as an acotar reader. yes i've read all the books and i've spent way too much time thinking about it. i enjoy the books in the sense that i enjoy hating on many of the characters and loving a few of the others.

be forewarned inner circle fans. you will not like this.

rhysand is not a 'morally grey' character. he's a rapist and a groomer. he sexually assaulted feyre utm, he groomed her (reminder that she was 19 in acotar), and he withheld important medical information from her. 'you'll always have a choice' my ass.

nesta telling feyre about her pregnancy was not a bad thing. why do people act like it is? 'oh she did it to hurt feyre' hurt her by doing what? revealing the lies that her beloved husband had woven? revealing the fact that she'd die giving birth? the fact that rhysand told literally everybody but feyre?

mor is not the champion for women everyone thinks she is. this i will give to sjm it is truly impressive to make a character like women and still be a pick me. i'm not even going to go into her whole weird ass relationship with her dad (i still don't understand why she wouldn't just kill him. 'oh rhys needed the army' rhys is supposed to be the most powerful high lord ever. either admit he's a fucking loser or give me an actual good reason for this) or the fact she's seemingly incapable of doing anything to help the women in the court of nightmares, but everytime she was mentioned, i had to let out a heavy sigh and rub my temples.

on a similar topic. i liked eris. like a lot. out of all the acotar characters sjm has written, eris is by far my favorite.

the inner circle needs to sit the fuck down. they are the most hypocritical bitches i've ever met. they like to think themselves high and mighty. reading them make fun of lucien's band of exiles while their name is literally 'court of dreamers' was the most infuriating thing ever. and then they have the gall to be insulted when called out. don't dish what you can't take.

out of all the inner circle, the only one i don't hate is azriel. this is simply because he is the only one who hasn't opened his big fat mouth and done something bad (except if you maybe count his whole thing with elain). cassian is on my hit list. it's on sight with cassian.

nessian is sjm's worst ship and i will stand by that. lucien/nesta could have been so much. 'nesta would have ripped lucien apart' and cassian was your first choice? not even azriel was considered? like be so for real right now. sjm didn't see the potential of lucien/nesta and i will forever mourn that.

sjm is a terrible writer. i'm not saying this to be mean but she seriously just sucks at it. that being said i admire her ability to still make millions of dollars off her shitty writing. as a woman, i am rooting for her. as a reader, every day i wake up a shoot a prayer to the heavens begging the gods to not let sjm write any more books from the inner circle's pov.

lucien/elain is better than azriel/elain. argue with the wall.

eris/azriel is better than azriel/elain. you can kiss my ass.

NESTA/ERIS IS BETTER THAN RHYSAND/FEYRE. i know this because i have been enlightened.

feyre is a victim to rhysand. that being said, she is also a major bitch. both can be true because these things are not mutually exclusive. i wish she could make friends outside of the ic like nesta did, but i know that's unlikely.

feyre's pregnancy storyline was completely useless and went against her whole character.

acomaf retconned everything about tamlin and feyre's relationship in order to make more money. idc.

tamlin gets a ridiculous amount of hate. rhysand is hypocritical. so tamlin locking feyre in a house because she wants to ride out with him into potential danger is terrible and abusive, but rhysand locking nesta in the house of wind for... *checks notes*... having sex and spending money on alcohol is helping her? what?

Thoughts on Agatha All Along - Finale!

Well, I've managed to piece together a post from the notes I took after that awesome two part finale. I enjoyed it a lot, so this is gonna be a long one! So follow me, my friend, as I give my thoughts on Episode 8 and 9 of Agatha All Along.

Now this is one of the most interesting character redemptions I've seen in young adult/family media, because it isn't really a redemption! 

Agatha's redemption goes just as far as her motherly bond with Billy, but other than that, the show is less about redemption and more about retribution.  We thought when Episode 5 said "Punish Agatha", that would be an outlier, a temporary obstacle to the coven coming together.  Nope.  There's too much red - I mean, purple - in Agatha's ledger.  Agatha is who she is, and the show never rewards her for her treachery.  In fact, her cynical, callous worldview costs her everything…even her death.  Agatha is literally reduced to a ghost because she rejects the literal embodiment of the life cycle.  (And she can't face Nicky.)

She's literally "mommy Voldemort"!  That is one of the weirdest things I've ever written!

The only thing Agatha doesn't lose at the end of the series is her bond with Billy - and that's even a close one.  He almost banishes her! That's a fun inversion of the beginning where he deliberately seeks her out. But in mentoring Billy, Agatha has a sort of second chance at parenthood after losing her son. So she is given that grace.

Okay, technically the show does kind of give Agatha the anti-hero treatment, or else she wouldn't end up Billy's mentor.  Clearly Agatha has something to teach Tommy about the nature of power and ruthlessness of the world.  Billy's chaos magic is unfathomably powerful - like his mom, he was bound to accidentally hurt people at some point.  And Agatha was absolutely right about this: "get used to this feeling if you're going to be a witch".  That's unfortunately what being powerful is like.  Think of all the collateral damage the Avengers have caused.  Heck, Wanda at Lagos.  Billy really does take after his mother.

It's the same way in the real world. Any decision a politician makes, money a billionaire invests, has ripple effects the victimize somebody, a shadowy cost to match the reward.

It's one thing to trample others on accident when you swing around your power, but hurting others on purpose actually does actually hurt you, and I think this show expertly portrays that.  It doesn't fall into this trap of making Agatha some amoral badass that people idolize for giving them permission to be assholes.  The power of virtue is not a metaphor, not just a moral gimmick meant to promote societal adhesion.  The callousness of treachery actually affects your ability to form meaningful relationships, which is part of living a satisfying life. Under that facade of bravado and villainy, Agatha is suffering deep inside.  Of course, your mileage may vary, only the good die young, yadda yadda.  There's plenty of happy monsters and sociopaths in the world.

This show has some really interesting parallels with Loki.  You can even argue that Agatha ended up with a parallel but also opposite fate to Loki: a ghost to the world, cut off from life and death.  Only unlike Loki, she can still interact with others.

Agatha All Along DEFINITELY follows Wandavision's footsteps when it comes to flipping audience expectations.  Only this time it's not as simple as Ralph Bohner or those "devils in the details".  Agatha All Along is deliciously character driven, so all the devils in these details are character-related.

The Coven and Sisterhood

Let's start with the biggest "twist": around the middle of the show, the story was about sisterhood: four wayward witches and one familiar setting aside their differences and learning to work together as coven. 

That all goes to hell with Agatha kills Alice and Billy yeets everyone into the mud.  (In retrospect, that's definitely part of why I was disappointed with Episode 5. I could feel the change in direction in the awkward writing.) Sure, Lillia embraces the coven before her death, but Jen definitely does not find kinship with Agatha in the end.  In fact, Agatha screwed her over a hundred years before the show began, and Jen's final challenge is getting away from Agatha's toxic influence. 

And then the whole coven plot definitely goes to hell when it turns out that not only was the road not even real, but the legend of the road itself was just Agatha's lie to lure witches into her coven to murder them over and over again!  Granted we knew that Agatha wanted to kill the coven from the beginning, but this is a whole other layer of deception.

I know this pisses some people off, because obviously it feels like Alice and Lillia died for nothing now - or at least died for a cause they never signed up for.  This was all about resurrecting Tommy, not working together for sisterhood!

Even though the coven didn't last, I think it still matters that it was part of the show, and it was explored. The theme of sisterhood is there. And like Vision said, something is not beautiful because it lasts. 

But I know a lot of people wanted to see this conventional story where everyone survives, and Sharon learns analog witchcraft and her skills come in handy in the last trial when she saves everyone from a sticky situation, and the newfound coven of sisterhood teams up to defy Death and save Agatha and Billy.

That's why we have fanfiction.  *sigh*

Defied Expectations

Speaking of fan disappointment, there's no moment where all is revealed about Agatha's relationship with Rio, at least not all that the fans wanted to see.  Instead, we get an admittedly cute and emotionally compelling flashback to Agatha raising Nicky that shows us exactly how she started the legend of the Witch's Road, and how the ballad started as their song as mother and son.  I'm not disappointed that they went this route instead of a more Rio-centered flashback - I think it brings the story full circle.   

I could tell people were going to be disappointed when Agatha didn't end up in a fulfilling relationship with Rio/Death.  Their relationship had such rich chemistry and it was so intriguing - but to me, the writing was on the wall that it would not be a particularly positive relationship.  I don't imagine Marvel would show a relationship between a serial killer and the embodiment of death and make that a happy, healthy relationship.  My condolences to shippers who wanted this to be a positive representation of lesbian relationships.

And on that note: I'm not sure why Agatha tells Rio that the truth about Nicky's death is too terrible.  Was she absorbing life to keep Nicky alive, and once he refused he finally died? Is that why she says to baby Nicky "You like that? I think we're going to work together just fine."  If this is what they were going for, then yeah that truth is terrible enough for me. Obviously Agatha isn't going to tell the coven she needed to kill other witches to keep Nicky alive.  There's no use trying to rationalize serial murder, even if it's to support your son.

I like how Agatha's name for Nicky follows the "Namor" rule. Since they changed Namor's origin, instead of his name being "Roman" backwards, they made him "N'Amor - the one without love!" So sure, sure, Nicholas Scratch isn't named after Nick Scratch, an old name for the devil, perish the thought! Agatha names him Nicholas Scratch because she made him from scratch. Aww, that honestly was adorable, name retcons aside.

We don't flash back to Agatha's first coven.  The Salem Seven and Evanora originally seem like they're going to be a bigger part in the story, but they're a footnote by the finale.  And although I'm glad they chose the story of Nicky and the origin of the Witch's Road, it would have been nice to commit to actually explaining some of Agatha's actual origin. 

Did Jen's trauma bind her magic?  Nope, Agatha did it.  I mean it doesn't exactly rob us of Jen's trauma narrative - it was still there, implicitly, it's just funny that everything in the series really is Agatha All Along, except for that one big time it was Billy All Along.

Oh, and I guess that one time it was Lillia All Along.  But that's different, that's Patti LuPone.  You have to get Patti Lupone in on the fun.

There are always some editing mistakes in TV shows, but it seems like Marvel needed to go back and tweak some (alleged) discrepancies in the story that don't match the final version of the series, or at stop and clarify things more often.  (For instance, how was Rio "torturing Agatha" throughout the years?  Was she responsible for all the disasters around Agatha, hoping to break her into finally accepting her death?) 

This lack of clarity is a problem with the series overall, to the point that Jac Schaeffer had to keep explaining things that the narrative didn't make clear.  But I have to say, the fact that we were so on the edge of our seats wanting to know means that the story was doing its job.

All Roads Lead To...

So in the end, I think that just like Wandavision, the show went in a direction that a lot of fans weren't expecting - but unlike Wandavision, in some ways I think that's to its benefit.  The coven may not have lasted, but damn that is a richly emotional character study of Agatha Harkness, and I am excited to see "The Ghost and Billy Kaplan" return in Vision Quest, or maybe Young Avengers. 

There were some (alleged) plot holes from Marvel's trademark editing process, and they should have been clearer about some things - but holy triple goddess was this an amazing series nonetheless.  Pound for pound, I think it's the best series Marvel has to offer right now.

Follow me my friend, to glory at the end.

Hi !! Any chance that you're going to write about sett or kayn? Just wondering ehehe, I love your fics so much and I always read them time to time. It fills that void in my heart ｡⁠◕⁠‿⁠◕⁠｡

I have an Order of Shadows (Zed and Kayn/Rhaast) harem fic I've been chipping away at! Unfortunately my mental and physical health has been pretty rock bottom the last few months so I haven't been up to writing much. As for Sett, I had a vague idea for a Roulette Wheel chapter where Iso becomes a pit fighter at his establishment while also unwittingly moving in with his mom, leading to Hijinks, but alas it stayed 90% an idea. Please enjoy this random out of context scene from the 10% however

“You're living with my mom?” He hisses as soon as the door shuts, and it is indeed a hiss; there's some animalistic noise rattling in his chest while he speaks that makes it difficult to be sure which word in that sentence he's actually stressing. Maybe all of them.

You shrug so hard your shoulders go up to your ears, equally agitated. “How was I supposed to know?! This was before I even fucking met you!”

He gestures harshly to his ears, then back towards the door to the dining room, pinning you with a wildly incredulous look. “We're the only two Ottari Vastaya in this entire city, you didn't think?”

“How the fuck am I supposed to know that?” You demand. “Why would I assume everyone I meet with fucking animal ears is related!? They could've been fucking…fox ears, or wolves, or something, I don't know, and I'm not going to assume because I'm not about to be some sort of cat-boy racist!”

He squints at you. “Cat boy?” He repeats.

“Cat man, whatever,” you wave a hand at him.

He pinches the bridge of his nose. “That's not–whatever, not the issue. You can't tell her. About any of it. You, me, the pit, anything, y’hear me?”

You narrow your eyes at him. “Are you asking me to lie to her?”

“I'm telling you to lie to her, as your fucking boss,” he snaps. "It'll break her heart if she finds out."

“Maybe you shouldn't be in a profession that would break her heart in the first place,” you shoot back, scowling.

His lip curls. “Hey, fuck you. What other option do I got, trying to make a decent living for the both of us in this fucking town? You think I haven't been down that road, huh? Who's going to hire a beast-blooded bastard?”

You regret your words immediately. “I didn't mean…I'm sorry, that was a shitty thing for me to say.”

He deflates in turn. “I…fuck.” He turns away, raking a hand through his hair. “Honestly, you're not wrong. She deserves better than being lied to, but I just…I don't feel like I've got much of a choice, y'know? If she knew where the money came from she wouldn't take it, and I ain't going back to watching her kill herself on shit jobs for shit people. Did enough of that growing up,” he says with a scowl.

You sigh. “Sett, I’m historically pretty fucking bad at keeping secrets,” you inform him. “Literally, the only secret I've managed to keep came with a magic shock collar.”

His face scrunches in the way it does when he's not sure if he wants to ask what the fuck you're talking about. “What?”

You wave a dismissive hand at him. “If I talk about a certain point in my life I start…well I can't say what happens, but…y'know what happened to Junbei?”

He blinks. “The bouncer who got glassed? Or the guy who got a razor slipped into his food cuz he was fucking around on his wife?”

You nod. “Yes. Anyway, it's a whole thing, it's not really important.”

“That seems pretty important,” he argues, face scrunch intensifying.

“Anyway, we need to get our stories straight,” you say, blatantly changing the subject. “I've been pretty vague about my work, so I don't think there should be any contradictions, except–” you pause, staring off into space. Then you cringe.

“What? Iso, what?” He asks, alarmed.

You cover your face, groaning. How the fuck are you supposed to explain that she's been trying to set you up with her son? How the fuck were you going to explain that you dodged said set up by telling her you were interested in your cocksure boss, who is apparently also her son? You'd have to leave the country. You'd have to throw yourself into the nearest Void Rift and hope to whatever God had jurisdiction that you didn't fucking embarrass yourself in whatever universe you got spat into next. “Nevermind, don't worry about it.”

“Iso…” he says warningly. You ignore him and go back into the dining room.

Ok civ's response is honestly kinda funny, I should've known only someone equally as delusional could go along with coy's bullshit all this time.

https://toyhou.se/~bulletins/2068868.update

Image link in case it gets deleted: https://imgur.com/a/lDxBSoT

As another unemployed artist the fact they think terra staff "ruined their income" when not only are they absolutely popular enough to make money off their art. They also have coy's audience backing them as well, so this claim is extremely laughable to me. Try having no audience at all and not having a community made up of big spenders from cs communities, then maybe we'll feel a little sympathy.

Or better yet maybe if you and coy contributed an ounce of effort beyond being greedy assholes you'd still be able to make money off the species. But no, clearly they never learn their fucking lesson because every single species they've made eventually gets ruined because of their insistence on running the species according to how much money they can make.

It's genuinely hilarious to me that they both actually think they're the victims in this situation because terra staff finally put their foots down and said they can't keep using the species for money. Go get a damn job if you're that desperate and stop taking advantage of the people who want to actually enjoy the species and especially stop causing issues for the terra staff team who are actually fucking trying despite all the bullshit they've had to go through because of you both.

I'm so tired of them and entitled greedy cs owners in general, I couldn't fathom being this self centered honestly it's sad.

yeah i think im gonna call bullshit on this, lets do a little dissection here

" What they didn't mention was how they banned both coy and myself (even though I had nothing to do with the deletion of the pets/left the conversation civilly before that was discussed), "

even if civ had nothing to do with deleting the pets, i would argue terra staff made the right choice in banning them. what coy did is equivalent to vandalism and can cause further problems if there are issues with code and such. furthermore, wouldnt it make sense to ban civ as well if theyre closely associated and have the power on the account to do more vandalism? civ you werent doing shit for the species other than farting out adopts every week, youll live.

 "..refused to negotiate with us, did not include us in the original discussion about OUR OWN TERMS that were agreed on when we left ownership, and the new owner was unwilling to participate in the discussion originally."

i am SO curious to see what actually went on in staff chat. the conclusion im personally drawing here is that the original discussion occurred in a staff-only chat (somewhere where civ and coy wouldnt be because theyre NOT FUCKING STAFF) and then when the final agreement was reached, they came to civ and coy. maybe they could have gone differently about it but honestly, knwoing now that civ and coy have continually shut down any sort of discussion like this due to their greed (cough cough THIS whole debacle) im not surprised they wouldnt be asked for their two cents.

"Both sides have made mistakes; but the terra staff refused to acknowledge their dishonest and disrespectful actions that led up to this. Had they been willing to compromise and talk to us, this wouldn't have happened. "

again i am just not willing to believe this when civ and coy have a history of being shitty to staff (shall i bring back the receipts?), when cal(tycho) has a history of being a good owner even after the enormous shitshow of what you put him through, when, after you two finally fucked off, things are actually being MOVED FORWARD in the species (like trait guides, new items to allow lim traits, new site assets, all within a timeframe of like. two months. civ and coy had the species for over a fucking year and did nothing. just some food for thought)

like im not going to believe you unless you give adequate proof in the form of screenshots or something. but they probably wouldnt do that because it would most likely show current staff being totally reasonable and you two shitting your diapers over it.

"They silenced me and put their foot down, ruining my source of income as a disabled unemployed artist."

hmm lets crunch some numbers here

you have seven terra adopts that are on your most recent designs tab. presumably you are allowed to keep the money from that because it happened before everything went down

now a lot of these are pretty pricey, the first in the list is $300

however if you go through the rest of their recent designs its all little chibi stuff for around ~$20. that could be a defense for the "wah wah you stole my one source of income" if it werent for the fact these designs almost never go unsold, they have chibi slots open for $45, and they also have fucking isopups to ride the coattails off of. like you will be fine, you have many ways to make money off of your art as opposed to some 10 follower account. this is pop artist bitching at its finest.

and again, it is THEIR FAULT they dont have terra income anymore. how in the world is it fair for them to have more money opportunities than people actively working on the species just because they slapped their names on it.

finally lets do a funny little comment showcase!

people keep equating the old staff team to the new staff team. lets talk about bear, lets talk about kea, lets talk about fucking coy. thats the staff YOU employed, not the people trying to throw together the pieces. you want to again, absolve yourself of all responsibility acting like it wasnt YOUR FRIENDS that YOU picked for the staff team that was causing problems. bear literally caused the first downfall of the species (architechals) and YOUR staff are the ones who ran with it and decided to be petty and immature and make knockoffs. i swear to god this reminds me of people saying shit like "the economy was better under x president!" when the current president inherits the economy of the previous one

jesse please do everyone a favor and just shut up for once, you only care as long as you can profit off of the situation, your wording is so stupid i genuinely lost braincells. civ and coy absolutely do have the means to make money off their art, far more than other people, and the issue with the situation is that theyre making more money off the species than the people actually putting in work to maintain the fucking species, the agreement according to tycho would have STILL allowed them to make more than terra staff but they were too greedy and stupid to just shut up. and to make an ableism argument really just makes me want to bash my head into a wall. civ is not some poor discarded puppy "thrown out in the rain," they have the ability to make a lot more fucking money than most others can off of art, and not to mention they have the ability to use the fans of those they have connections with, like coy or even fucking kea

but in all seriousness, its SO fucking funny to me how theyre acting like civ and coy are some fucking marytrs for terraliens, like they were working sleepless nights to do the best they could each and every day hoping and praying they could make it!! please be fucking for real. again, that species did not even have TRAIT GUIDES for the full calendar year after it was created because civ and coy just didnt give enough of a fuck to do it. listen im gonna ride or die for new staff right now because there is TANGIBLE EVIDENCE of them actually going above and beyond anything ever done under civ and coy. compare #staff-wips from civ and coys reign to now. before, all you would see is adopts. thats it. nothing else just adopts. now, within the course of three months, new staff have come up with unique events, had lore writer, mod, and OA applications, released a new set of forageables THAT GIVE REWARDS, entirely revamped one of the forage areas with plans to do the rest, held the myo compensation event (a feat in and of itself), show CONTINUAL wips of shit actually important to the species (like new items), take in community input, and again, above all else, FINALLY put out trait guides. id say theyre doing fucking leagues more work than civ and coy ever did.

and this is just fucking laughable. ive already made all my arguments, you can see the types of people we are dealing with here. calling jealousy is absurd and downright hilarious

their fanbases need to wake tf up because these people love to victimize themselves and misconstrue shit all day long

How do you understand the Chaotix so good in your brain

HI JEN HIIII HI JENZEL HIII<3333

I. Don't actually know. I feel like I do this with every character I get really into is that, I like.. Really enjoy figuring out their .. idrk how to say it their attributes? I enjoy figuring out what makes my favs tick. I like finding little mannerisms, speech patterns, stuff like that, and then from there figuring out okay. How would they react in X situation or I guess. If I were them how would I feel and how would I respond

Like say if it were Charmy, he would have less of a filter and less of a poker face when reacting to something, wouldn't find something as embarrassing as Espio, but if he did his reaction would be bigger than a quiet facepalm. He doesn't understand the world as much as the others considering he is six But he's still relatively sharp and can piece things together since he's also a detective.

It's kind of like a juggling act of what a character would instinctively do and what other factors are contributing to them doing or Not doing something about it y'know

Comedic relief characters are always so much fun to pick apart for me as well because, yeah most people are gonna just laugh them off and not think twice about them, but I feel like in a lot of franchises the comedy relief usually have something more to them that at a glance no one would really pick up and TC are suuuuch a perfect example of that

On the surface Espio's a cool, calm, collected ninja. But you go below the surface and he's a anxious teenager desperately trying to seem cool getting so embarrassed by his best friends in the world who both have higher intelligence scores than him GJFHDG

Vector is a LOUD and abrasive and hashy bashy and seems greedy but he is EXTREMELY observant he has the keen eye of a detective and can figure things out really quickly and the only reason he's always after money is to keep them alive!!

Charmy is also loud and constantly chattering and seems a little bit away with the fairies lol but again he's really observant and pieces things together sometimes unintentionally! and he's extremely hyperactive because he's SIX

and even then I feel like their characters are even more nuanced than that I just. this post is getting long and this is directionless and rambling as it is GJFH

And their relationships with one another make them even more compelling to me!! They just care about each other and love each other so much and That's why they can fight and argue and get irritated with one another without even thinking of leaving the others' sides that one GIF from Sonic Heroes where Espio and Charmy just knock Vector onto his ass for no reason at the end of a level they can bully each other because they're a silly little family and they're best friends and they LOVE EACH OTHER!!!

Anyway yeah Team Chaotix I like them ^_^

would you consider chip from the cable guy (1996) a yandere?

I watched this one with Cherry yesterday and it's a fun movie for sure. I like the kind of comedy and hijinks the two characters get into, and Chip is the best wingman, even if he probably goes overboard. He just wants to have friends is all I'm saying. Still, I wouldn't say he's a yandere, even on a platonic sense. Also every time I see this image it makes me laugh, I can't get over how funny his expression is.

The story starts out with Steven, who has just broken up and moved into a new apartment calling his friend Rick about his cable. Rick recommends bribing the cable guy so that he can get all of the channels on the TV, something that Steven gets iffy about. When Chip the cable guy comes in, he tries to bribe him but ends up befriending Chip instead. This leads to the two of them hanging out, playing at basketball games together, watching TV together, even going out to a Medieval themed restaurant together. Steven and his ex, Robin, start to get back together with the help of Chip, however, this causes Steven to want to distance himself from Chip so that he can spend more time with Robin and hopefully get back together. Chip actually tries to get the two back together by pretending that Steven bought her free cable, as well as beating up the person that she was dating, something that does work, however, Rick feels like Steven has started to overstep on his boundaries, kicking him out. This leads to Chip framing Steven for stealing things (such as a TV, speakers etc) when they originally were just gifts from Chip, which leads to Steven getting fired. When asking for Rick's help, we learn that Chip isn't even actually a cable guy, and has actually had this pattern of obsession with other people in the past. Chip ends up kidnapping Robin, and Steven comes to save her. After a fight on the giant satellite dish, Chip jumps off after losing Steven as a friend, but survives. Robin and Steven get together, while Chip goes through the same level of obsession after the pilot says that the two are buddies.

This movie is a lot of fun watching Chip and Steven's dynamic. Chip is very much into television and references it a ton, with his main thing being that he doesn't realize that he's not living in a movie/tv show and that reality is a different beast. It's a bit of a dark comedy with just fun moments in character.

Chip does maintain a lot of yandere traits. He's very clingy towards Steven, constantly wanting to hang out with him, invading on his personal space and genuinely just being kind of a menace in general. He leaves Steven hundreds of voice mails and gets mad when he doesn't pick up, as well as pretty much tries to get Steven and Robin together to make sure the two of them are still buddies. He even buys Chip a ton of things, and when it all backfires, he goes back hard with vengeance, kidnapping Robin and framing him for stealing. Still, the genuine problem I have with Chip as a yandere is that he switches targets too fast. In the end of the movie, he pretty much is implied to have ditched Steven in favor of the pilot and that's after Steven made a plea to him before jumping off of the satellite dish that the two of them would still be friends together, and even in the end, Steven still never really says that he wants to stop being friends with him. You can also argue that he has, at least according to Rick, done something like this in the past, however, you can argue that we don't really know the extent to how far he went so that's up in the air, but really, a yandere, even one that's platonic shouldn't really switch up targets that fast, as yanderes are very well known for their devotion and persistence towards one person, even if it is in a platonic way.

Overall, very fun movie that I enjoyed with a obsessive character, however, for my money it doesn't really hit the yandere mark due to the fact that again, he switches targets far too fast.

Hello! I see you're on a break, but may I place a request for an Identity V matchup whenever you're up for it? I'm pretty new to the fandom and still getting to know the characters but I'm v curious! I have no preferences for gender or surv/hunter.

I'm an INTJ and enneagram 6w5, if those help.

I'm also an only child to parents who worked a lot to make end's meet, so I'm used to having a lot of space and time to myself. I dont do well with crowds or long social events, but I am very good at adopting myself to socialize with different kinds of people in smaller bursts. I get along with just about everyone I meet, but the social masking means I'm a bit slow to make genuine friendships. I'm VERY loyal to people I can share my quiet decompression time with. On the flip side, I'm impatient with people who intentionally ignore my boundaries because I'm used to the alternative of being alone.

Im an anxious person who doesn't handle heated confrontation well. Regular disagreements are fine, but raised voices set me on edge and I'd rather take time away from someone so we can both cool off before we have a conversation.

Acts of Service is my favorite LL to receive, even just little things like cleaning my glasses for me. (I'm independent, but not having to be makes me feel loved) Physical Touch is probably second, and also probably the one I'm best at giving.

I'm more of a homebody and my main hobbies are reading, writing, and just relaxing to music, but I also enjoy outdoor activities like camping and hiking when I have company. I have a weak spot for low-budget horror and science fiction films! I enjoy trying new foods too--i think I'm a pretty average home cook, but I'm not a picky eater and I do my best ☺️

I like animals, and I have a couple bunnies as pets! They're v well behaved and have free run of the house.

I work in a management role right now because the money is pretty good, but it's draining and my dream is to publish my first book and make that my career!

Thank you in advance! -🐇

I match make you with...

💌 𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐎𝐑 𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐙 🐶

∘₊✧──────✧₊∘

If you need someone to give you gentle encouragment to grow out of your shell or quiet refuge from extended social events. He's your go-to guy.

He's more than happy to be your support.

Your adaptability matches well with his ability to match his attitude to his letters. You both would be able to blend well into the right crowd, but would need a safe haven to recover from such. Unlike common belief, Victor doesn't like people as much as you'd think.

I feel like your struggles to make genuine friends would sort of bring him comfort that he's never been able to tell if certain people would make poor or good friends.

You wouldn't have to worry about Victor pressing your boundaries since he has very similar boundaries to you. He'd understand that sometimes, being on your own is the best thing a person could be.

I hope you like dogs. Because Wick would be pretty excited to meet you haha. Wick is Victor's dog that has been through hell and back with him. So because of that, he's been pretty attached to Victor and that's the only person Victor feels comfortable around.

Honestly? Victor is one of the most chill survivors in the manor. I don't think you'd have to worry about arguments with him. If you ever did argue, I think he'd initially struggle to communicate about it first. It'd be a bit of a climb but if he trusts you enough, you two will be just fine. But, I wouldn't worry about that at all. He's literally just happy to be here.

If you're looking for Acts Of Service as your favorite love language? This boy literally delivers letters because he loves to. He would absolutely do little things like that for you. He would be more than delighted to do small things for you.

He's also such a sweetheart so he'd probably melt at your touch. He'd adore it very much.

Wick requires the pat tax

And with your cooking? I don't imagine he'd be too picky either. BUT he'd adore some Steak Diane if you wouldn't mind 🙏

And since you have bunnies? You'd be great with Wick! Since Wick is also very very well behaved. So much so, that Victor brings Wick into matches and he does exactly what he is told! So, not only would Victor love your buns, but Wick would probably love new friends to play with. (He will be gentle with them I promise)

He's also pretty independent since he acts as a postman. He literally ran into a fire to save Wick, so yeah. He wouldn't be leeching off your absolute girl bossing it. But just know. He will be the first person to read your book. He'll run around it and deliver little advertisements to help get your career off the ground (most likely as a secret) because he knows you're talented <333

How do the members of TXT react to one of their freinds hobbies. (Ex; seeing their art, or listening to them singing, etc)

This is quite interesting, actually! Let's find out; How Would TXT React To Their Friends Creative Hobbies? Yeonjun : *5 of Swords* - Ideas are being represented via swords, whilst 4 talks about change and conflict. This card discusses the ideas of competition, conflict and rivalry. I feel like he wouldn't hate it or be annoyed, he'd want to be a little competitive and try out his friends hobbies to get closer to them. I feel like he would try out-do his friend and tease them, turning it into a friendly competition between the 2! He just wants to show off, not hurt anyone or take it too seriously. (Arrogant but we love that fr) Soobin : *The Chariot* - He would view this person as someone with a lot of control/direction in their life, he definitely feels like they would be able to go places or make it big with their hobby, whether it be art, singing, dance, acting, songwriting, storywriting, etc! He'll definitely encourage his friend and help them by using his personal connections, promoting them where he can, introducing them to people he feels like would help and overall just encouraging them to persue their passions! (His platonic love language is definitely acts of service, argue with the wall <3) Beomgyu : *2 of Cups* - Cups is often associated with water (his pisces energy's going feral here), as well as emotions, feelings and relationships. 2 talks about decisions and balance. I'm getting major dream-team vibes from this card, especially if his friend is interested with singing, rap, dance, acting, etc. He'd definitely want to encourage/support their dreams, he'd be the type to joke around and say things like "Wow, the way you sang almost made me fall in love with you", to tease you. He'd also perhaps ask for your autograph as a joke and tease you a lot, but he'd find your passion for your hobby very sweet and he'd be all for it! He's soso supportive and would definitely recommend you try certain things to build your skills, if it's an area he's well-versed in! Taehyun : *Queen of Pentacles* - Pentacles is associated with material options (wealth), sensuality and an earthly personality, whilst Queen can be a motherly/nurturing type figure, a natural leader. Overall, this card is saying that he would be the type of person to think about it on a practical level, if his friend wanted to persue this hobby professionally. He's the sort of friend to hand out his card and use money to help rather than be verbally supportive. He'd be supportive but not as openly as the other members and would use his own quiet methods to help via connections that people don't know about, his own money, etc. He'd chalk it all up to "coincidence", but his friend would 100% know that the reason their dreams are coming true is because of Taehyun. He'd bring you snacks and would clean your space to help you out as well, especially if you're stressing out. Very thoughtful! HueningKai : *8 of Pentacles* - As stated before, pentacles are representative of materialism and earthly nature, whilst 8 shows action and change. This card is telling us that Hyuka would definitely stress the importance of working hard and being dilligent to reach your goals, he'd definitely say something cheesy, yet sweet, like; "aim for the stars", he would be someone you could think of as a sponsor - getting you whatever resources you need to achieve your goals. If it's something he's well-versed in, he may even try take you under his wing as an apprentice of sorts! Thank you for joining me with this reading, dear soul, I definitely enjoyed looking into this! Hyuka seems to be very closed off, but his energy is starting to warm up to me <3

First, Breastforce claimed that their entire interest in this started from Marco in a dress from St. O's. The person asking about Marco in a dress was trying to bait Adam into saying something about the theory.

Most people who repeat the theory do it because of the dress, not the "dysphoria" (which is actually body dysmorphic, involving obsessive focus on a perceived flaw in appearance.)

I know that you're not going to believe any of this. It's upsetting to see you misgender anything, especially when I've been misgendered so many times in the last 6 years. Also your comments about my physical state don't help, making a joke out of it is cruel which is how I interpreted it.

And being transphobic is another jump to conclusion that doesn't make either of us look.good. I'm not transphobic. I'm transgender and have had years of reflection on iit. Calling me transphobic is like a punch in the gut.

As far as Daron, all she said was that she always intended Marco to be the type of guy who wasn't hung up on doing some things that are typically feminine without any concerns for his masculinity. It seems from an experience she had when she was young with her best friend who was male. When I asked her if Marco was going to grow up and be a good male role model, she said yes. Twice she did.

I won't deny I love the character a lot. I won't deny that some of the crew liked that some people saw themselves in Marco. But even if you look at the storyboard that everyone points to, it was a doll of a persona Marco already distanced himself from except for a royalty payment of $650. It was a capitalist business deal and nothing more. That's all the merch was ever about. A way to give Marco spending money during adventures. It wasn't about some secret "he's going as a she" behind everyone's back. It was all about the money. If Marco really cared about it on the level you theorize, he wouldn't have taken money out of the profits and would have done it in the best interests of the girls.

In conclusion I see this is misgendering. While it is a fictional character, some of the ways you've interacted with me have also been along the same lines, about me being transphobic and making light of my physical problems which is hitting below the belt.

Hi. I've been nice to you thus far. I've argued with you on your level, I've met your points on good faith. I've countered every argument you've given me with relative politeness considering how you've harassed me and my community, or ignored you when i was tired of said harassment. But now?

Get fucked, mate.

Where the fuck do you get off with this? Where do you see the moral high ground attacking trans people - OTHER trans people! - for finding identity with a character in a cartoon, in a community on tumblr. How childish are you that you cannot fathom other people having different interpretations of the source material. How petty and small-mided and hateful can you possibly be that you see trans people finding joy and community in a fictional character on tumblr and decide that it's hateful. How puritanical is your mindset that you cannot stand the idea of other people existing outside of your point of view.

Jen has said that she's not angry at you but I fucking am. Grow the fuck up you petulant, whinging, tantrum-throwing child. Flinging baseless accusations - I've never talked about your physical state, I barely know what it is beyond you being physically disabled in some way, which I found out after the majority of my interactions with you. I'm sorry, but you do not get to use your own problems as justifications for bullying and attacking others. You do not get to play the victim when it is you going after people apropos of nothing. It is you sending hate to fan artists just minding their own business, it is you going into our tags to complain about how we enjoy and interpret media.

And no, I don't fucking stalk you so I didn't know you were trans. Congratu-fucking-lations asshole! Looks like trans people can be just as toxic as the cis! Thanks for taking one for the team! And I'm sowwy that it's huwwrtful but your harassment and condemnation of the theory fucking stinks of transphobia. If you just disliked the theory, that's fine - I know plenty of polite and nice and non-transphobic people who don't think it's correct - people like Adam McArthur who would be appalled at your harassment at people over different interpretations of his character. Dozens of other tumblr users dislike the theory and they don't fall into your emotionally manipulative bullshit. That's a you specific problem.

(and while we're on the cast/crew topic: Daron Nefcy would be appalled at your use of her words as a gotcha for your bullshit cyber bullying. they mean nothing other than her affirming your interpretation of the character)

Your preposition is fundamentally flawed, you base your entire judgement of this theory on the fact that the idea started when a trans woman related to a character in a way you didn't think was valid. Your idea that somehow feminine men are underrepresented in fiction is completely ridiculous. But to go the fuck off about how even being perceived as a trans woman is dangerous to cishet men and then land on the conclusion that the problem is trans women? That's fucking transphobic.

But fine. You're trans so you can't be transphobic. You must of course have a ready list for canonical trans women for us to have flocked to back in 2016 when the theory was popular! Actually, I managed to find four examples (off the top of my head) of major characters in children's cartoons, the genre we're talking about. So you must be able to find the same! No? What about that same list from today? C'mon! If feminine men are so underrepresented compared to trans women, there must be more of them today at least! Fine we'll make it easy - it doesn't have to be a children's cartoon! Show me any western cartoon from any point in history where there was a trans woman as a major character. She doesn't even have to be the main character! Just a part of the reoccurring cast.

Show. Me. One.

But somehow those poor cis men are the ones victimized by us mean trans people.

I'm so fucking sorry you feel personally victimized by (other) trans people seeking representation. I'm so fucking sorry you are so badly triggered by (other) trans people (many of whom have dysphoria) identifying dysphoria in a work of fiction. But--newsflash asshole!--you don't get to bring your problems into a public space and harass people about them. You are the one in the wrong here, but your head is too far up your own arse to even dream about treating other people like actual human beings.

So, yeah. You're an immature, transphobic, bullying piece of shit and I want you to stay the fuck away from me, my friends, and my fucking tags.

As usual, badly put together thoughts on Playboyy episode 5 under the cut :

My main thought on this episode is how heavy on melancholy it was. It was a lot less funny and dramatic and a lot more, idk. contemplative ? or at least that's how it felt to me. Also a lot more unsettling, we are definitely not playing anymore. Funnily enough, this gravitas is pretty close to what I hoped for when I started Playboyy, but now that I actually have it I feel wrongfooted and unsure. Which is great ! I've always enjoyed shows where I didn't know what I was in for before starting an episode (perhaps a little too much) and I appreciate the unease.

Related to the above : I like that the Nuth & Phop scenes are packed with tender moments (the piggyback, the very begining of the shaving scene, "haha i'm halucinating him :D/i'm right there", waking up in each other's arms) amidst the constant current of dread. It helps lay out the reasons Phop comes back (drugs aside) on an emotional level, and it also makes the peaks in tension that much stronger because you keep waiting for the other shoe to drop and because it could be sweet ! it could. it's good suspense.

Honnestly the fact that Nuth has been so strongly established as suspect n°1 when we're only in episode 5 makes me really doubt that he is, for lack of a better term, our Big Bad. Which does not mean I think of him as an innocent little sweetheart (don't pay people in drugs is imo a pretty low bar and he couldn't even clear that) and he absolutely had something to do with Nant's troubles, but I feel like there is something else at play. Could be way off though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Unpopular opinion probably but I worry for him too. He does not seem well ! He also doesn't seem to have much of a support system ! If this all ends badly - if it already has, for Nant, because of him - I don't think I'll be able to shake off the feeling that it all could have been avoided.

Please don't kill Phop please don't kill Phop please don't kill Phop

Other characters I would like to not see die are Nont (very much so), Soong, and Jump. (and Puen because I play favourites) the others are fair game for me not because I don't like them but because I can see multiple narrative payoffs for their death. It all depend on how it's done. (honnestly I can also imagine narrative payoffs for Nont's death, and worse endings for him than death, but. uh. I'll be gutted for sure)

Since I mentioned Soong - I told myself I would not gripe about this but I am absolutely going to gripe about this : how did Nont convince him to drink/take drugs with him ? Did he think this was Nant ? it was all very weird and I did not get how we got for point a to point c. You could argue it doesn't matter but it's the kind of things that matters to me ! Anyway, moving on :

Soong keeps having a bad time. And I'm sure many would say he deserved it, but as I'm not generally interested in characters getting their just deserts (unless it's funny) I'm still mostly feeling kinda sad for the guy, in an awkward sort of way

I'm sorry I said Nont was not good at threatening people. turns out he's just not good at threatening people with sharp objects. He's disturbingly into it when it comes to fire though ! (but also Nont baby you're gonna burn your thumb)

Zouey & Teena were very cute. So where Zouey & First trying to investigate Soong.

You know who isn't cute ? Porche. I want to sit that boy down and have a loooong talk with him. It probably wouldn't help but someone has to try.

Anyway we knew that already but the fact that none of these rich little fuckers where willing to help Nant out when they could easily have pooled their money... with friends like these, honnestly.

This may have been a wake up call for Captain ? wait and see I guess.

Captain and Puen being on good enough terms that Captain told him everything about the fake sex tape is interesting. I'm still really interested in their dynamic !

Look. Puen was so charming (and charmed) all episode and Aob was so prickly, it's hard for me not to get into the relationship that is dangled in front of us (and I didn't try). However everytime I watch this series I think of Love Conquers All (2006) and its ironic-ass title, so I look at every single relationships promised by this show with doubt and mistrust

SPEAKING OF WHICH : lmao @Prom and his little evil smile. control your face, sir.

But I still believe he didn't know why Nant was missing, so I wonder what he was smiling evily for. Plenty of options to chose from though ! Maybe he just wants to get back at the ex-playboyys for asserting their independence, which would be bad enough, but I doubt that's all. Oh well, we'll see !

Last thought : I could have sworn I saw the bottom of a brazilian flag in one of Nuth and Poph scene but I can't find it again :(

Thess vs AI

So. The Bioware layoffs.

I actually am in the slow process of a Reddit argument about the use of voice actor AI because of this. And it got gradually dumber and uglier the more I debated. Which I suppose I should really have known would happen, because ... well, Reddit.

See, the reason the subject even came up is because there's a worry that, especially with Mary Kirby having been laid off, and Narrative Director and all that ... well, the concern is that they're going to start outsourcing their narrative stuff to AI. And this one individual was basically being The Champion Of AI, like, "Oh, I know some people will lose their jobs, but lamplighters lost their jobs when we got electric street lights; technology moves on! And cameras! If you wanted a portrait, you had to hire an artist, but now there are cameras and a lot of portrait artists suddenly had a lot less work but we could have as many pictures as we wanted! EMBRACE TECHNOLOGY!"

I ... had some things to say about this. Things like ... I don't believe that AI can properly capture nuance, at least not yet. And even if it could, once these companies have, say, a stable of voice actor's voices saved for AI use ... why would they want to hire new ones? Everything would become really stagnant in the industry on that scale, and you wouldn't have things like ... voice actors bringing something special to specific characters. I mean, there's a massive difference between Kai Leng from Mass Effect 3 and Joel from The Last of Us, but they're both still Troy Baker. Which Troy Baker would they get? Kai Leng? Joel? Logan? Booker DeWitt? Samuel Drake? Theron Shan?

That's when this individual started accusing me of being a snob, and eventually let out the real reason they championed AI. Namely, this individual wants to make video games, but doesn't want to code anything, nor dig up the resources for voice actors. No, they want everything ready for them to buy (or, more likely, pirate) so they can make a bunch of asset flips and stick them on Steam or wherever. They said, "You just don't want poor people like me to be able to maek video games".

I mean ... I do? I love indie games. I haven't got around to playing Darq yet, but that was one guy and a whole lot of work, so I can't help but be impressed. Solasta is janky as fuck and looks like an asset flip half the time, and the voice acting is not all that, but I still love it. You just ... make do with what you have.

Like ... if you can't afford voice actors ... don't have voices. Or find some drama students who want a warm-up project, or friends, and pay them in beer and residuals. But you don't go around exploiting people in a way that would kill an entire industry just so you don't have to find voice actors to make the game you want exactly as you want it.

In other words, I'm with the striking actors and writers on this (because while it doesn't get brought up, there's at least some worry about people being scanned and used in AI form going on in all that money-grubbing exploitative crap the writers and actors are fighting against) - "FUCK YOU; PAY THEM".

Buuuuuuuuut I know this individual is going to keep arguing at me because they want want want want want want ... but don't want to have to pay. It's another example about how art is commodified specifically so it can be devalued. Hell, I want to make a video game. Can I code? No. Am I pondering poking at Game Guru if I ever have a chance? Yes. Do I want AI voice actors doing the voices for me? NO. I have friends; I would ask them and promise them royalties.

This individual calls me selfish because I "don't want them to have things". I want the actors to have what they need to live because they give us things we enjoy. I want this entitlement bullshit as regards anything artistic to stop already. You want art? Pay for it, like anything else. But I'm probably going to stop responding at this point, because I have worked three hours of overtime and this person will not stop until they have the last word. Let them think they won. I stand with the voice actors, and everyone else who creates what I love. PAY AND RESPECT YOUR ARTISTS, FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

(2/2) Sorry in advance for the cursing:

2) The Seifer thing: The Japanese version of the game makes it very clear that she doesn't like him. Selphie asks her if she still likes him, and she says she doesn't. And even in the English version, she tells Selphie that she doesn't know if he was her boyfriend nor if she was in love with him, and she didn't know how he felt about her. She hesitates so much when she talks about him and their alleged past; if he wasn't actually her boyfriend, how is she a whore? Then the Ultimanias literally never mention their "relationship"; giving more credence to her statement in Japanese that she doesn't like him. She never flirts with him in the game; her two conversations that she actually has with him are yelling at him to not comment on whatever happened a year ago, and then pleading for him to let her go and not push her towards Adel. That's "flirting" apparently?!

I swear it disgusts me when people use, say, Mike Bettencourt's walkthroughs on YouTube to play through FF8, he's such a fucking hypocrite regarding Rinoa; he literally says he doesn't like Rinoa because she's a damsel in distress, the only thing she ever does is cry for Squall to come and save her, and he deliberately chooses to make Squall an asshole to Rinoa in the first 2 discs, yet Mike keeps putting Rinoa in Squall's active party. What a fucking hypocrite. If he hates her, why does he keep utilizing her? Some people have actually brought this up with him, but he ignores them. I stopped subscribing to his channel after that.

End super long rant. I'm sorry. I hope you don't mind. I like your analyses and other posts on Squinoa, hence why I reached out to you. Also, I'm actually hiding offline because I've been getting harassed by antis in my social media DM's recently.

I'm not sure how to say this without coming off as flippant anon, because this comes from a place of sincerity, but I genuinely worry a little about you. What I mean is that it can't be good for your overall mood to be butting heads this much with people who are essentially enjoying themselves towards the same game as you albeit in a (yes okay: drastically) different way. And I'm not saying I agree with the so-called 'antis' --everyone knows I'm a big sappy Squinoa shipper-- BUT ultimately the way they interact with the game and its canon doesn't hurt me in any way and they are allowed to participate in fandom as they choose. I don't go out seeking them and their content just as I absolutely imagine they don't purposefully seek mine. We could argue all day about the intent behind the story and characters of a 25 year old game all we want but it wouldn't accomplish anything but make us all hate each other's guts. Let and let live, live-laugh-love, yolo etc etc. I have no idea who that YouTuber is, but keep in mind that, as with all content creators nowadays, outrage generates the most clicks and the most engagement, ergo: more traffic to their channels/videos, more visibility and thus... mo' money. Not saying that's what he does at all but it's definitely something to think about. Again, I tend not to interact or consume media about subjects on fandom that I don't agree with, personally. ''I am 30 or 40 years old and I do not need this'' as a certain sentient milkshake once said. Of course I don't mind lending an ear and giving (hopefully good) advice and thoughts anon! But like I said, I'm just a bit worried. FFVIII in particular has always been kind of the black sheep of FF's, and having had to constantly defend my love for this game to the 'outside world' just has me not wanting us to fight among ourselves on top of it. <3

We said like this if this is true he's dead so we're going to check into it

Trump

It's kind of adolt I've been telling all sorts of stuff he doesn't care now I figured out he's going to try and get rid of me and he has been. It's for this game too of being his brother and also the s*** and so trigger reaction when he said last night I'm kind of his brother sort of because his brother was was like right my father now I'm getting it and that a****** hates it says he's a nightmare he's a pretty swap guy and did it to himself so it wouldn't be guilty he thought to be smarter, our friend said the last sentence but holy crap we got to start looking at this guy

Bg

Besides up to when you know what his activities are and that's what it is and he's a lunatic is very bad for people and right now we don't need them here and he's going to get kicked out too pretty soon he's getting damn weak. Right right now you're all playing an invasion and he's a hooky a****** and sacrifices his own and thinks he has an unlimited supply but his clothing is shut down all over the place even on Australia. We're going after you warlock to shut you down because you announced your attack and tons of saying it and tons of you're getting stuff to do it and it's illegal to attack the country I love your people don't like it but don't really care it's a bunch of two dead things and know nothing's anyways they have no lives. It's kind of a simple concept Trump took away the little niceties that make life here very nice so there's a city here not bothering to stop anything but didn't do much and we're going to get rid of them they just window dressing now and nobody believes it. I'll tell you what though you people need to die all if you do we arguing about his ridiculous you don't want to pay him five cents or a dollar when he's with so much money it looks around since you ain't worth anything to me you're nuts the granted you're having trouble getting it there and other people don't want to but we were willing to pay him money and stuff and we still work and we still are and you people aren't and and you're nuts you're having Worcester arguing and arguing and arguing whether it's right who should do it for the whole time we got really pissed off cuz you're doing it here too and we don't want to hear it you have plans and bring it to one of the islands and shoes and see if it works and if it doesn't he's a criminal item prisoner and we're going to hit you and f*** you up for that you're making a huge mistake all the time you're going to pay for it

Mac daddy

It's not really a surprise that you're like this I lived with you guys my whole life and you're a bunch of failures and you fail it practically everything and when you're in your natural form nobody would be surprised you're actually quite stupid one thing I will tell you one thing you losers didn't listen and you don't listen to me you harass me you're going to die the furnace is right over there they shoot you dead and they put you in the furnace so enjoy your day and freaking morons

Zues

I sort of get something they're declaring war of these guys and they're getting rid of them and they can't figure it out they're very very stupid right now and really they're really never that smart and they're taking everybody on and nobody wants them around. So I'm sitting on orders to get rid of these idiots

Hera

We do hear it and we see it too they don't care about the incinerator so we're going to have to make them care and I'm ordering up tons of things to happen today

[thefanficmonster]

Hey, I'm back ☺️ can I request a Charlie (penguinz0) headcanons where the reader just simps for him and just donates a lot of money (reader is also a big streamer)

Of course dear! Enjoy 💕

Pairing: Penguinz0 (Charlie) x Reader (Gender Neutral)

Warnings: Swearing (?)

Genre: FLUFF, Humor, RPF (Real Person Fic)

- You had been watching Charlie's content for a while at that point

- However, you rarely had the confidence to interact with him or his streams

- And when you did get ballsy, it would be usually with that latter

- Donating to his stream, at that

- Lately, you've been able to afford to give out bigger donos than usual to small streamers you come across on Twitch or YouTube and are always melted by the reactions of the often newbies on the platform that downright drop their jaw on the floor when they see your donation

- You'd argue that it isn't a big deal but come on

- Many of those smaller content creators probably see you as their idol, considering your stardom and popularity due to your gaming skills, incredible personality and humor

- But, you also wanted to flip the tables too

- Instead of only donating to people who looked up to you, you wanted to also donate to people you yourself looked up to

- People who motivated you to take on this career path

- That includes Tina, Corpse, Sykkuno, Rae, Fuslie

- And, of course, Charlie

- In all fairness, you were the most motivated by him, seeing as how his and your personalities clicked so well

- You'd always been worried you wouldn't be an appealing person for a social media career

- But to see him succeed meant you had a pretty good shot as well

- Apart from his achievements and content, you also admire him for never being someone he's not

- He's never shied away from being yourself and helped you realize that playing a part to appeal to someone is most definitely not the way you want to live your life

- You'd love to one day reach out to him personally and express how much he's influenced the person and content creator you are today

- But you're yet to find the guts to do that, popular or not, you're a shy blob for this man

- And a major simp, let's not forget

- So, until you find those guts, you decided that you'd just be donating to his streams

- Little did you know, it'd soon be his turn to flip the tables

- He does so when, mid-stream, catching you completely off guard, he calls out your donation with a decent dose of appreciation and admiration

- "I just wanna point out that this person - Y/N's Gaming Corner - they're fucking amazing. I've been watching their content for the past few months. The specialize in the horror genre. I know you're watching this, Y/N, so good job on the Dead by Daylight stream last night. I would've shit my pants if I were you. Oh and thanks for the donos, you sure got the money to spend on me. You think you can find some time to spend too? I'd love to chat for a bit."

- To say your arm was red after all the pinching you did to make sure you were awake would be an understatement

- It took you a good few minutes to gather your thoughts and determine your next actions but alas you eventually did get back control over your body

- Little did you know, in that time it took you, Charlie was sweating bullets, eyes constantly darting to the chat every two seconds, waiting for your response, nervous as all hell

- And let me remind you, this man doesn't get nervous

- It was mere seconds before he gave up on it completely when he saw another 50$ dono from you and it read:

- 'Never cleared out my schedule so fast'

MC IS A FAMOUS SINGER

demon brothers + dateables. gender neutral mc.

link page.

LUCIFER:

as your stage name is different from your real name, he was surprised to see you featured on a billboard in the human world.

now he understands why you have to leave so frequently to human realm.

he's no different to learning about it, but does pamper you a bit more knowing people from the human realm are also constantly staring at you ‐ possibly even more than the low ranking demons that want your soul, or your fanclub made by certain students of RAD.

has records and cd's of your music. he listens to them whilst doing his paperwork in the late hours of the night.

MAMMON:

"'ya make a ton of cash, right? don't 'ya think we could share it? i am your amazing and loving boyfriend, after all!"

yes, he's aiming directly at your money. he won't stop begging until you give him a couple hundred.

and also yes, he's selling exclusive photos of you for some extra grimm. (he stole the photos from asmo)

besides from that, he's supportive and goes to every concert of yours. he's cheering for you in the front row while wearing merchandise you gave him.

LEVIATHAN:

depending on the music you make, he may or may not listen to it often.

BUT, that doesn't change that you are his first celebrity crush from the human realm. he found out about you through an anime ad, alright? he thought you looked cute in the sailor uniform.

he knew exactly who you were when you came into devildom. he was going into a major fanboy crisis.

he didn't tell you he knew until much later. he was too shy to say anything, in fear of you hating him.

will blush and stammer when you drag him up on stage.

SATAN:

he was surprised just like lucifer. although, he found out about it after a crowd of people swarmed you during your stay in the human realm.

he scared them off for you, don't worry.

will ask why you didn't tell him, but won't care as much as he seems to.

he's listening to every song and going to every concert. he's VERY supportive, claims he's way more supportive than anyone else.

don't be surprised when he requests for a song about cats. he just wants to hear his two favorite things and loop it forever; your voice and anything about cats.

ASMODEUS:

"can i be your stylist?! i have SO many ideas!"

he's dressing you up for your next concert, don't even try and argue.

will get you to him any expensive item so he can be best of the best on devilgram. he needs everyone to see his beauty in top fashion!

looping your songs and constantly doing photo shoots with you. one beauty needs another, right?

BEELZEBUB:

he's neutral.

he doesn't listen to much music, so he doesn't give much of a reaction.

might ask what dishes you've eaten as someone who's famous and if you can bring some to him.

will make sure to protect you from paparazzi in the human realm. he isn't letting you get hurt.

BELPHEGOR:

"if you have a lot of money, can you buy me this comforter set? people say this is the to sleep with."

also coming for your money (low-key though)

he will ask you for every pillow and blanket he's every wanted. will BEG for it, if he has to.

though, he's not flaunting it off, he is supportive of your progress you've made. he understands it's difficult, so expect him to praise you on that before he sleeps.

DIAVOLO:

"how about we host a concert in devildom? that would be wonderful, wouldn't it?"

he's excited to now know this information.

absolutely ADORES your music. he will make barabtos and lucifer listen, too.

you will not escape his protective side when he sees a swarm of paparazzi, though.

will wear your merchandise everyday, so be ready to cuddle whilst staring at your printed face.

BARBATOS:

diavolo told him and made him listen.

he enjoys the music, to be honest. maybe because it's your voice.

will add your songs to his playlists and listen to them while cleaning around the castle.

won't make a big deal about it, much like lucifer. he'll probably praise you on your succession with some kisses and tea.

SIMEON:

loves your music. he's got to have every peice of merchandise you have. huge fan.

honestly, he was a fan before he met you. he just never knew what you looked like until you told him.

"to be clear, i was a fan of your music even before i knew.. you have a wonderful voice, MC. it's soothing to hear while spending time in my room."

he's very honest, unlike levi. will admit to being a huge fan and show you all of the merchandise he purchased.

yes, he's at every concert with luke on his shoulders.

SOLOMON:

WILL COME FOR YOUR MONEY.

although he doesn't seem like it, he's asking for expensive items just to see how much money you do have.

"can you get me this gucci bag? even these louis vuitton shoes? maybe this chanel outfit?"

he's just joking with you, he won't let you buy it.

although, he knew you were a celebrity before anyone else. he just didn't care to say anything.

yes, he's also at every event you hold. no, he won't let paparazzi get close. they have to stay at least fifty feet away or he's cursing them to stay as a frog their entire lives.

LUKE:

learnt about your music from simeon. once he figured out it was you, he was so happy.

praised you for your voice and bragged to everyone that you, his best friend, is famous.

he's on simeon's or solomon's shoulders while watching you perform - he even has a cardboard sign saying "THAT'S MY BEST FRIEND AND IM PROUD OF THEM."

sorry if there's any typos, i didn't reread over this to check. </3
