DUUUUUUDE YOU MADE A SOCIAL BLUNDER- into the oil vat with you.

I have no idea how to actually go about writing it, but another interesting idea to explore would be one where Five makes it home when he's twenty-nine.

The apocalypse is still fresh to him, and the Commission hasn't tried to recruit him yet, so he's vulnurable in a way his family have never seen him before and we didn't get to in the show.

Because let's face it: Five is not alright.

He's not used to noise and people. He keeps marvelling at how clean the water is. At how much food there is. He looks like he's been through hell and back. He's haunted by the apocalypse and it shows.

In the show, Five probably went through this at the Commission. Here, Five's siblings get front-row seats to the fallout.

Maybe it doesn't make a difference in the end, maybe it does. Either way, it's far harder to dismiss the claims that an apoclaypse is coming when Five's... everything is living proof of it.

is saying "my universe" the way korean people say i love you or something because i was just listening to love wins all and one of the lyrics were literally

[psychojetcocktail]

i think we should explore the fact that not that many people in the wasteland know how to read more often

s4 xmen evo charles stronger than me cause i could not imagine my evil ex husband who i still have feelings for being sent to the color dimension in the wake of an ancient evil being Awakened one week and then The Entire David Situation Happening the next like truly he gets kudos for Not deliberately confronting apocalypse earlier and getting himself sent to the color dimension

The diffriders are so fucking fascinating to me specifically flare trooper dumjid bc like. You take a dragon mercenary who has seen war and has actively watched many comrades die. His whole thing is that he’s a perfect guard and thus the only one who survived, leading to a fucked up conception of himself as above death. And then you have him possess the body of some kid who presumably agrees to let him see earth bc That’s His Favorite Card And He Thinks He’s Cool and who’s probably like 12 (sorry saori I have no clue how old you are I’m just guessing based off taiyou + hiroki) and just. Walk around on earth (where are saori’s parents btw. Like you could say this about most vanguard characters but where are saori’s parents/guardians/friends do they know what “saori” is up to?? Does anyone who knew him pre-diffride realize how different he’s been acting?). Play a card game where he commands his dead comrades bc shiranui is paying him (which. How is he paying him, earth currency or cray currency? And what IS cray currency for that matter?). The only thing he likes about earth is the music but he is specifically cursed to keep having his headphones break. When a unit who’s diffriding a human dies in the human’s body, both the unit and the human die on both planets, and besides the money dumjid is only on shiranui’s team bc antero/miguel DIED, a fact which he’s fully aware of and iirc derides him for (may be wrong abt that one though). He constantly tells people to die when he’s cardfighting them. He is laid-back about vanguard and doesn’t care much until he loses a cardfight and because loss and death are inextricably linked in his mind he proceeds to get Super Fucked Up About It bc he’s built his entire self image off being The One Who Survives and losing the cardfight is akin to confirming that it’s possible for him to die & he especially can’t accept that Some Random Humans have the ability to take him out. Sometimes he shows his opponents the battlefield and the bodies of his comrades and they really don’t seem to devote much thought to it (like. What??? I get that chrono & friends love vanguard and chrono does address it a little bit but mostly iirc just to say “I don’t think that’s what vanguard actually does/that’s not OUR vanguard”). He’s affected worse and worse with each loss and joins a group trying to end the world to get revenge on the humans who’ve beaten him (iirc unclear whether he knows the success of the destruction of the earth will destroy him too). He becomes the last of the original diffriders - chaos breaker dragon doesn’t count he was diffridden during U20 - to remain on earth, a point which he makes sure to bring up as proof of his superior survival abilities. The kid whose body he’s possessing expresses that he’s not happy about the way dumjid’s acting and dumjid doesn’t give a shit and continues to puppet his body around. Just, everything about him as a character is so fascinating in a concerning way and, like shiranui, he brings up the fact that vanguard is Real in a way that the earth characters don’t really consider - yes they have strong imaginations and genuine attachment to their units, but ultimately they’re playing a card game where even if cards get sent to the drop/damage zones they can come back for the next battle* whereas on cray they’re fighting Actual Battles and the units that die die For Real And Permanently. Unlike shiranui, who eventually began to see vanguard as a method of reunion with his dead friends and decided that what he’d been told about earth vanguard being a direct cause for his friends’ deaths might be wrong, Dumjid never changes his view on earth vanguard after “experiencing death”, so when he finally loses and goes back to cray he’s essentially dragged back clawing and screaming. I don’t know, there’s just something about him that’s sooooo soooo fascinating to me

They really gave Ben the power of eldritch horror and then made him blob zombie for the big finale

do you like, have any apocalypse bird content, asking for a friend.

(pleasepleasepleaseiloveapocalyplsebirdsomuchineedmorecontentofapocalypsebirditsbeensolongireadtheapocalypsebirdwiki23timesnowandirereadallthestoriescontainingorevenjustmentioningapocalypsebirdpleaseimsofuckibgdesperate)

More ‘Poc. Bird stuff? Uhhh… sure why not!

Well… just off the top of my head, surely I’m not the only one who imagines sharing a body with two other people- especially one that barely looks anything like any of yours- would be difficult?

They argue often. Well, it’s not really arguments, because I doubt any of those three have ever raised their voice based just off of how polite and monotone they sounded in the story. It’s more like a constant friendly debate in their head.

The reason why its max E. Boxes in the Encyclopaedia are 12 is because that’s the amount of PE Boxes it makes when it’s suppressed. It makes plenty of energy when it’s suppressed, sure, but only a small percentage of that is actually Enkaphalin. The rest is… well, whatever Extraction Team makes EGO out of.

Its head is really more of an eye stalk with a brain attached than anything else. No mouth, no nostrils, just a case for a brain with an eye attached for the hell of it.

Oh, though it does have those feather ears, but they’re not awfully good at their job. It’s pretty hard of hearing.

It also uses its arms as feet, because really, how else do you expect it to get around?

Speaking of its weird biology, instead of a stomach it has a fire pit in its chest, making its mouth essentially a gateway to an endless vortex.

A fire pit that it can also regurgitate. Apocalypse Bird can breathe fire.

Why does it never do this in game? Who knows?

Nobody in the facility has tried this or even really knows it, but all you need to do to save everyone from its rampage is come up to it and tell it the facility can help them kill the Beast.

It’s just like ‘wait really?’ and then instantly follows your every command. FREE DRAGON DEATH GOD BIRD RIDE LET’S GO

a lot of the followers of the apocalypse are probably addicts in recovery. acts of service build to structure in your life outside of using + a strong motivation to help other people get sober/find moderation + understanding the nuances of addiction makes you a lot more effective as a counselor

i think that was the first time i wrote a "giving the characters a Problem for the purpose of Sibling Bonding" fic where they actually came up with a solution by the end. dick grayson's older sibling skills are so powerful

[gravedigest]

Trying to figure out how to word the fact that old people in a future setting would be elite video game experts.

Like with handling a controller, like all these kids these days and their newfangled computer brains, back in MY day we could type 500 words a minute with our FINGERS and had the twitch responses of a god.

Doc headshots Deimos 6 times in their game and Deimos has no idea what the fuck is going on because he doesn’t know how to aimbot.
