Monster AU - Monster Taxonomy [P1]

[P1: what the fuck is taxonomy and why does it matter in a monster AU]

OUTDATED

short answer it doesn't. you dont have to care butgod i fucking love classifying things an d making up names. and also there are some intricacies that taxonomy can help elaborate on when it comes to species.

Taxonomy is the scientific practise of ascribing names, categories and classifications to living things based on characteristics both individual and shared between different creatures. There is a taxonomical hierarchy that goes as follows, from least to most specific: domain, kingdom, phylum (sometimes division in botany), class, order, family, genus, and species (plus subspecies). Most things you think of as living fall under the domain Eukaryota, so you can assume everything I talk about belongs to Eukaryota unless otherwise stated. A part of taxonomy is binomial nomenclature, by which species are given a scientific name consisting of two parts, the genus and the species.

Vulpes vulpes, the red fox, is the species vulpes in the genus vulpes and Tyto multipunctata, the lesser sooty owl, is the species multipunctata in the genus tyto. Any normal person will call these 'the red fox' and the 'lesser sooty owl' or just 'the fox' and 'the owl' but taxonomically, they both have a very specific classification.

From kingdom to species, the red fox is: Animalia > Chordata > Mammalia > Carnivora > Canidae > Vulpes > Vulpes vulpes the lesser sooty owl is: Animalia > Chordata > Aves > Strigiformes > Tytonidae > Tyto > Tyto multipunctata.

See, they share a kingdom and phylum; Animalia and Chordata; more or less because they are both animals with spines. But then they diverge as their characteristics differ; in this case, the difference between mammals (mammalia) and birds (aves) is their morphology and reproduction; mammals have mammaries (breasts) and give live birth, and birds have no mammaries and lay eggs. Each further specification on the taxonomical hierarchy indicates a more specific list of shared traits between creatures in that classification.

Taxonomy helps to identify species that are related or have common traits. And why does it matter? Simply because monsters aren't human (Okay, well, on that front it's a little complicated) and there are many different kinds of monsters that fall under a single umbrella label; for example, seafolk. They are commonly widely miscategorised as 'mermaids' no matter what they actually are, but there are countless actual 'kinds' of 'mermaids'. Squalo, a Merrow, is fundamentally different from a Siren or a Selkie. Werewolves are a bit of a special confusing case, but I'll get into that later.

In other words, monsters aren't Homo sapiens and the term "monsters" is a catch all term, not an actual class or genus; and while some monsters are human adjacent, not all of them are, and even those who look human adjacent might belong to entirely different classes. (hint, theres a nonzero entirely likely chance that polymorphs don't belong to the phylum chordata)

And I'm a sucker for coming up with names and being silly. Realistically, monsters wouldn't have any taxonomical classifications because most people don't believe in them and those who do believe in them want them dead a good amount of the time. But we're talking biology here! Perhaps a biologist with an interest in cryptozoology would want to classify monsters and perhaps that biologist is hypothetically me (not a biologist) and I'm going to come up with scientific names and figure out some classifications for my Monster AU.

Stick around if you're interested and leave if you dont give a fuck i dont care i fucking love rambling about my monster au. ill update this post with more related posts and ill make a monster taxonomy tag

I wouldn't say your post rattled me, at least not in the way you're probably thinking. I try not to personally reference the people when I write my own posts or comment on theirs, I may disagree with the opinions but I don't criticize the person writing it. You said something along the lines, "They don't know what a fact is", which I see as you calling me a liar, or even crazy and delusional, that's why I sent you a message. I have never used the anon button, I think it's pretty cowardly when people do, I stand behind my opinions and don't feel the need to hide.

Nicknames? Okay, honestly I've heard "carshmilton" as many times as "crashtappen", of course there's also "mv0" and "mv00", "human error champion", "mickey mouse champion", "costcappen" and so on. There's also "crymilton", "PR63", let's not forget all the memes and videos. I don't really see what this proves apart from the fact we as fans have too much time on our hands and can be immature.

Illegal? I mean Michael won his first two titles in a Beneton that was illegal, Lewis won his first in a car built with information stolen from Ferrari, Mercedes worked with the FIA for several years on the hybrid engines before 2014, they had an advantage Lewis benefited from for years. I don't really think that's a can of worms anyone wants to open. Every team will always do anything to win, that shouldn't be blamed on the drivers.

Crashed out other drivers? Most of the races Max "crashed" with Lewis, Lewis went on to win, and Max didn't gain any advantage by being aggressive. He was crashed out too and it cost him much more than it ever did Lewis.

Helped by his teammate? Pretty sure most drivers (champions) get help every now and again, it's not like Checo was actually a contender for a title at any point, let alone on those rare instances he helped Max. Let's be honest in most races Max was running in P1 or P2 while Checo was down in P4, P5, P6.

Owning up? Imola 2021? When he first criticized Valterri for being in P9 in a Mercedes but then conveniently changed his story after speaking to Toto. We all know he was just kissing up to Toto to get the Mercedes seat he wanted. Austria and Austin? Honestly I didn't know he took any responsibility for those situations. I mean I wouldn't say even that quote is him owning up since according to your screenshot he didn't actually say it was his fault but okay. Did he take any responsibility in France or Singapore or Silverstone? Yeah of course no drivers are going to list excuses on the radio and not accept responsibility. Except when it's George you say it's normal but Max is "crying on the radio".

Max had a hole in his car, it's not something any driver would've brushed off especially since he said he didn't know until he got out of the car and saw it. It also severely compromised his race, I don't think it's reasonable to expect him to "brush it off" just because he was ahead of George, he could've won the race, instead he couldn't even fight. Max didn't storm towards anyone, George literally said he thought Max was going to congratulate him, would he have expected that if Max was "aggressive" with him? Max didn't have his helmet on, we could se his face, he was smiling, calling George "mate", yes he was annoyed but he wasn't angry. It wasn't throwing hats around the cool down room or storming towards Esteban, or Vettel confronting Daniil. We've seen angry reactions and today wasn't it. I don't remember Max putting holes in peoples cars any time recently, George didn't touch the barrier, he had enough space. Also Max when he does touch other drivers gets penalized, or at least investigated, none of that happened today.

Threatening him? I don't think it's a threat, he just said next time he's going to do the same as George, if George was in the right today, then there's nothing wrong with Max saying he'll do the same. I've seen other drivers make the same kind of statements. I think it was just a reaction to George dismissing him and walking away that provoked Max to react and say that.

Pretty sure it's still you and George who are the hypocrites. If being condescending to me is making you feel good since let's be honest you're driver isn't giving you anything to celebrate and probably won't for a number of years, I'm glad you at least have something that makes you happy in your life. Enjoy your dinner, I'm going to enjoy my two time champion and support him on his way to becoming a three time champion, probably before your driver gets his second win. Bye.

Marinette, neurodivergent? P2

gets angry and doesn’t understand other peoples reasons for being mean or doing what they did (i don’t really consider why they’re being mean i just get upset they are being mean even though they probably are just releasing their frustration onto me and are going through something)

-i’m not entirely sure if she masks (pun not intended) but she does act differently and more composed when she’s ladybug even though you know she’s freaking out inside and not acting as silly as normal (could also be because she is being serious and trying to focus which is what i do, i become more composed and calm when i am coming up with plans. also i’m not saying an autistic person can be labeled as “silly” when they aren’t masking but in this situation since i am comparing myself to her i see me and her act goofier and outgoing when we aren’t masking and more polite or composed when masking)

-organized lists and plans that have visual set ups (her plan in gigantitan with visual little characters as doing actions or in risk her using visuals to make a plan to save adrien and a list of adriens schedule so she can visually see where he is going to be)

-forgetfulness / losing train of thought / head in the clouds / daydreaming about real life things (such adrien and her married, i daydream a lot about having a partner)

-not being able to switch her task when she is focusing on her main task which leads to her neglecting others because she is so focused on completing it and only noticing their feelings when she is done (idk how well i said that but an example being watching a show and someone asking you to do smth like clean the dishes and the whole time you are doing the dishes your mind is set on finishing the episode and you become annoyed when someone asks you to do something or even says anything to you at all and maybe you don’t register what they say/ only have paying attanetion because you NEED to finish the TASK) which can make you seem like you don’t care what they have to say or how they feel even though you do it’s just your brain is set on the task you are preforming and maybe you only notice they’re feelings when your done with the task

-says things others find very rude (they thought it wasn’t nice to call out lila because to them it would just be weird to call out someone when no actual harm is being done when the way me and marinette would see it is they aren’t following the rules of being truthful so we want them to be brought to justice)

-another way to explain the last one is we saw adrien not saying anything about lila lying to the others but marinette is for some reason determined to show she is lying even though her lies are just to make her seem cool (at the beginning they become harmful later on) marinette sees it as wrong because she is not being truthful (i see general rules of kindness like truth, loyalty, or politeness as literal rules that shouldn’t be broken so i end up being like a rule police and if i saw lila breaking the truth rule i would want her to stop because rules can’t be broken in my mind)

LAST PART OF MY POST!

PLS no disagreeing on my post this is simply my headcanon!

big ass postal headcanon dump incoming

Postal Dude in General ⦁ His toes look fucking horrendous but his fingers are fine. Largely bc he bites his nails so damn much. ⦁ He has a bad/good habit of looking EVERYWHERE around Paradise just to collect all the possible goodies he can find before finishing his objectives. Good because well…You can never be too armed in this godforsaken town, but bad bc it takes all day for him to do a list of chores. ⦁ Dude would only kill your ass if you're either trying to kill him or if you're being either obnoxious/annoying to him. He's not opposed to robbing stores of 5$ milk and breaking and entering people's houses for goodies. Chaotic neutral but could lean more on either good or evil depending on his mood/how he feels about the person or situation. ⦁ Speaking of, the best way to be well aquainted with Dude is to either give him free drugs (Weed and/or Crack are pretty good choices), or food (like a pizza, blue daiquiri froyo, Hell it doesn't even have to be his favorite anyway, just the thought that counts). Also if you're nice to Champ. He wouldn't exactly befriend you as he's picky about who he lets in, that and he's probably one to enjoy non-hostile company just in general but not so much into the commitment that all relationships have, friendship included. Maybe with some exceptions. ⦁ Postal Dude is Bisexy. Most of the time he goes for women since well, they come to him first. That and he finds most of the men/other people in every place he goes to (Paradise, Catharsis, Edensin) to be not of his type, only just friends with them, and/or gross. He'd only want to fuck w/ them just for money. So when he does come across a guy or someone who is nb who actually interests him, he'd steadily test the waters. Being in a relationship though is a whole other thing entirely, as I feel like considering his past experiences (i.e. The Bitch), he's kinda rightfully picky about who he'd want to spend his life with. Edit: Also Corkscrew is a transman who prefers to be with women. ⦁ He can be very affectionate when he is in a relationship with someone he actually likes. Specifically, he's a massive cuddler, as the Postal Babes have joyously found out.

more under da line

Specific Postal Dude Headcanons ⦁ P3 is 6'8", PR, P2, P4, P1, Corkscrew, and Movie Dude is 6'4", Oh Sir! Dude is 5'5". Why? Technically his height was only introduced in Postal 3 and since RWS and most people tend to retcon it to oblivion I decided to create my own reality. Also imo the only obnoxiously tall people in fiction that are allowed are women, aliens, slenderman, nonhumans, stretchy fellows, and Doom Guy (or Doom Slayer, if you perfer). But P3 still gets to keep his lanky janky ass height

⦁ I like to think that each Dude is their own continuity/universe even if canon says otherwise. Think Into the Spiderverse but Postal Dude instead of Spiderman and that's basically it.

⦁ Corkscrew gets really ooey gooey whenever someone is giving him platonic and/or romantic yet not sensual attention, since he's so used to everybody being all horned up that the instant someone doesn't feel that way at all, or does something sweet without the intent to do naked backflips with him, he gets surprised enough to actually get flustered for once.

⦁ Oh Sir! Dude has a bad habit of constantly wanting to use as much mad libs insults as he possibly can. This results in what could've been just a small annoying moment into a 3 hour long arguement that is almost about to become a shoot out. He also hates tall people.

⦁ P3 is a ditz. He's basically the himbo of the whole Dude Regional Varients. He's also the best kisser of the Postal Dudes, right up there with PR.

⦁ P1 is distrustful of everyone, but he wishes he wasn't. It doesn't help that Paradise is a very crime-heavy area, which obviously causes more very justified paranoia against everyone. He just wishes to live a normal life and have friends, but yet his own fears simply won't let him.

⦁ PR is somewhat like P1, but he actively tries his best to overcome his own paranoia without the use of any therapy/help as that shit is expensive but he wants to get better. If anything it's just that it feels like the world is actively going against him every time he tries. Not Important Headcanons ⦁ I like to think that the achievement names that you get in Hatred are the actual thoughts going through Not Important's head.

⦁ The Antagonist/Nottem is 6'2", Widowmaker is 5'7", Psychocop is 6', Recidivist is 5'10".

⦁ Not Important had always been a misanthrope who's also one of those Toxic True Crime Fans TM who like digging deep about killers that he finds interest in. I don't even necessarily think he had a tragic backstory, unless you count the potential of him being an ex-military, but even then it's never truely confirmed.

⦁ If Not Important and Postal Dude were to fight for some reason, here's how I THINK it would go: In terms of weapondry alone, Nottem could beat P1, PR, Oh Sir, and Movie Dude, but he'd be defeated by P2, P3, Corkscrew, and P4. NOW in terms of 1v1 hand to hand combat, I feel like Nottem could take them all out individually. THE THING IS THOUGH, Not Important would be so uncaring of his own well-being and so much of a Postal Dude stan that he wouldn't treat PD attacking him seriously. If anything, I can see him just pascifistically knocking PD out and just generally being like "Why you have to be mad?" like that one meme

⦁ Not Important would be able to pick up every Dude like a breeze (but not all of them at once, lmao), but only PR, P3, and maybe P2 on a good day could pick Not Important up, but they'd break a lotta sweat to do so. (PR could handle picking him up the longest, but P2 could collapse in seconds if not careful)

⦁ While Nottem heavily appreciates and looks up to PD, he will do anything it takes to basically outdo him in every way imagineable. It's not out of disrespect for PD obviously, but moreso a show of how much he made him superior than every human parasite on the planet. I imagine while some of them would be amused by this (P2, P3, P4, Corkscrew, and Oh Sir!), there'd be some who are absolutely mortified and wouldn't like Nottem's extreme need to 'beat' them at everything (P1, PR, and Movie Dude). When it comes to Nottem himself, he'd love it if someone was inspired by his heinous actions and wanted to even outdo him, like the DLC characters for example.

bnha bois in gray sweats p2 (900 followers event)

a/n: round 2. so i have decided that i am gonna do jjk but i also added free to the list lol. this is the last of the bnha boys and i’ll be starting with hq next! characters: dabi x reader, hawks x reader, aizawa x reader warnings: men in gray sweats, sexual implications, semi-public implications, not much actual sex happening lol

part 1 | part 3

»»————-　　————-««

⇾ his favorite thing to do after an exhausting day/mission is just to take a shower, put on sweats, and relax ⇾ now, this fucker knows that you love seeing him in his gray sweats but honestly it’s one of the comfiest things he owns and if it also happens to get you wet, it’s a win-win for him ⇾ it’s never a new thing for him to wake up to you sucking him off or for you to end up riding him on the couch after making out with him for what feels like forever ⇾ and when that does happen, he likes to sit back and watch you work ⇾ the look in his eyes whenever the two of you make eye contact always goes straight to your core and the smirk on his face always pulled out a whine from you until he thought you had enough fun being in control for the night/morning

You were exhausted from cleaning the apartment all day. It took a lot out of you to clean up after a man who was barely even around, but when he was, it was like a tornado hit. After showering, you collapsed on the couch and flipped through the channels on the tv before settling for a show on Netflix. It wasn’t long before Dabi stumbled in through the front door, kissed your forehead while saying hello, and headed to the bathroom to shower and change. He wasn’t long, making his way into the kitchen for a beer before settling on the couch next you. Without glancing at him, you snuggled into his side and wrapped an arm around his waist while his arm rested on your shoulders. It wasn’t until you started to feel sore and changed your positions that you noticed what he was wearing. His gray sweats. You could clearly see the outline of his dick with the way he was sitting and you tried not to think about it too much as the next episode of the show started playing, but you found yourself rubbing your legs together and squeezing them to get some sort of relief. Dabi wasn’t dumb either, he could see how affected you were. It didn’t take long after that for you to give up on your resolve. Tossing the remote aside, you climbed into his lap and began kissing up his neck to his mouth. You could feel his smile against your lips as you deepened the kiss, the taste of alcohol flooding your senses. One of Dabi’s hands found its way to your ass and gave it a squeeze before he leaned forward to place his beer bottle on the coffee table. With both his hands free, he was able to fully grind your hips down onto him causing you to moan in his mouth. He pulled away as you threw your head back from the feeling of his dick rubbing against your clit, enjoying the look of bliss on your face. “You sure you want to start this doll? You might not be able to keep up with me.”

̶̶̶̶ ̶«̶ ̶̶̶ ̶ ̶ ̶̶̶ ̶«̶ ̶̶̶ ̶　　　　　　 ̶»̶ ̶̶̶ ̶ ̶ ̶̶̶ ̶»̶ ̶̶̶ ̶ ̶

⇾ he knows exactly what he’s doing when he puts them on ⇾ will prance around you with or without a shirt on too but would make it look like he’s cleaning or working out and will make sure you can see him to get you hot and bothered ⇾ this little game goes on for a while because you don’t want to cave, but the patience this man has is incredible ⇾ but he doesn’t stop until he gets what he wants ⇾ so the second you show any weakness, he will pounce

It had been a full ten hours. It was the one thing you hated when Hawks had a day off. You had things you needed to do and errands to run and he insisted on doing everything with you and in those damn sweats too. In the car, his hand never left your thigh, gently caressing you and occasionally squeezing. In the apartment, he would hover around without his shirt on, claiming it was “hot”. At this point, your underwear was completely ruined and the smallest friction against your clit was enough to make you gasp. Hawks knew this. He had known it for a while now. He was just waiting for you to cave in. You thought you might win this battle of will until Hawks came up from behind you, his hands wrapping around your waist, his face nuzzling your neck. “You’re really trying my patience today, angel,” he groaned in your ear. His hands squeezed your waist and you leaned back into his hold. He licked up the side of your neck and nibbled your ear lobe. “It’s been all day, I’m sure it’s not fun walking around in drenched underwear.” He continued to kiss and mark your neck. When he found your sensitive spot, you gasped, your hand immediately grabbing a fistful of his hair. “If we do this, I win. You made the first move.” You were breathless as he turned you around and one of his hands crept lower to squeeze your ass. His lips hovered over yours. “Deal. But I’m not going easy on you for making me wait so long.” He picked you up, his lips crashing into yours as he walked the two of you over to the bedroom.

̶̶̶̶ ̶«̶ ̶̶̶ ̶ ̶ ̶̶̶ ̶«̶ ̶̶̶ ̶　　　　　　 ̶»̶ ̶̶̶ ̶ ̶ ̶̶̶ ̶»̶ ̶̶̶ ̶ ̶

⇾ it doesn’t take much to get you worked up, but sometimes aizawa likes to fuck around with you ⇾ he can’t help it, it’s his inner sadist ⇾ he’s noticed your reactions to him wearing sweats before so he starts wearing them more just to work you up, especially if he’s in the mood to get his dick wet ⇾ you will never be able to get him to admit that he enjoys riling you up ⇾ but at the end of the day, you don’t care because you are thoroughly fucked out and his aftercare is amazing

You got a text from your boyfriend asking you to bring him his emergency bag. He didn’t give you a chance to question what happened but you figured you would be able to ask him once you got to the school. Aizawa wasn’t waiting for long and once you saw him, you couldn’t help but laugh. Half of his outfit had been singed off and he told you that it was because he had to stop Bakugou and Todoroki from killing Mineta. You gave him his bag and headed to his office to wait for him. No one else was there which was strange but at least it gave you the opportunity to snoop through your boyfriend’s things. “What are you doing?” Aizawa’s voice scared you since you never heard him enter the room. Placing your hand on your heart, you turned to face him but your words got caught in your throat. Maybe you should’ve looked at what he had packed away in his emergency bag because the sight on him in gray sweats and a white t-shirt was affecting you more than it should have. Seeing your reaction, Aizawa smirked. “What’s wrong kitten?” He pushed some hair out of your face behind your ear. He leaned down and licked up the side of your neck stopping under your ear. “Not here Shouta. Someone could walk in and see us.” But your body was telling him a different story. He noticed the way you squeezed your legs together and could feel your quickening pulse under his hand. He pulled away, grabbing your hand and dragging you behind him until the two of you were standing in the middle of an empty classroom. Before you could protest, he spoke up. “The students are off campus with All Might now and won’t be back for the next three hours.” You grinned, pushing him down into the teacher’s chair and got on your knees in front of him. “Three hours? I better be limping out of here then.”

Favorite Foods Of Some Slashers! [P2]

Well, here we are again. When will i stop adding to this stupid concept? And an extra one is added because i consider stu and billy a single unit and should be treated as such. Enjoy! (oh, and gore warning for the third gif)

Stu Macher :

- sadly not many people pay attention to my prized rat-boy, but i still love him so I'm putting him on the list. When it comes to food, stu will essentially eat anything. He’s not picky and has a fast metabolism and so he keeps skinny no matter what he puts into his body, therefore the only logical answer that i’ve deduced is that he LOVES fast food

- specifically he likes McNuggets from mcdonalds. Not only do they serve as both a snack and a meal rolled into one, but they also have the right amount of nostalgia to not be depressing (and yes, he gconsiders the happy meal- toy included -as a snack and the 20pc with some extra stuff a meal dont @ me)

- they’re his favorite thing to eat for lunch and dinner and whenever him and billy would go off-campus for lunch he would usually get some McNuggies, a large Sprite, and some of Billy’s fries (because they taste better if they’re not his). Preferably with some ranch and barbecue sauce on the side, at the same time

Billy Loomis :

- as a companion of the rat-boy’s he’s bound to have similar tastes in food with his bestie because they hang out all the time. So even though it’s loosely related, I’m pretty much convinced that billy is a sucker for anything you can put out on a grill

- the reason for this? Well, anything that tastes vaguely like fire is great, especially if it’s something with a lot of substance like a burger or some sausage. Currently his favorite is his dad’s burgers, but his dad rarely even does that anymore cause yknow, shitty things happened so now he's a bitch and doesnt really leave his house or try to hold cook-outs like he used to when his mom was around

- to replicate this at least a little bit he usually goes to McDonalds or Wendy’s for a burger with some fries that, almost always without fail, get eaten 70% by Stu at the end of the day

Harry Warden :

- this one is a bit tricky for a number of reasons. You have to consider who he was before he got trapped in the mines, what he lived off of after that, and a few other factors which are boring as hell and probably aren't even worth the time. BUT despite this, i can safely say that it’s probably something like cooked rodents or whatever

- it makes sense since that’s the only thing that would be running around in the mines so that’s the only thing that he has to eat, but if a person were to actually try to feed him food from local diners or whatever i’d say something like seafood since it’s what he grew up with and apparently it’s regional to the area he’s in

- when he was legally alive and walking above ground, however, his favorite food was lemon garlic scallop pasta that they served at the diner near the mines. He used to go there for lunch and eat there and usually took some home with him if they were still open when he got off. He’d probably cry if he ate it again, mainly because of the nostalgia and the fact that he hasn’t had real food in a Hot Minute aside from stolen lunches and the like

Billy Lenz :

- ah, the TRUE rat man. He holds the title for the Rattiest Rat man in existance (besides brahms, of course, since he literally lives in the walls), so his tastes aren’t all that refined. I’d assume his eating habits are mainly to satiate hunger when he absolutely needs to because, yknow, there are usually other people living in the house he’s in most of the time, so he kinda just steals a bunch of shit when no one is awake and eats it over the course of the week

- this is pretty much anything he can get his hands on, really. It’s pretty convinient since the house is usually so full of people that just assume someone else ate their food on accident or whatever. This includes pasta (yes, he eats it raw), kool-aid powder as seasoning sometimes, whole ass peanut butter jars, cans of soup and preserved fruit, and sometimes gallons of milk if he’s careful enough

- it’s kind of ironic too but he likes christmas cookies and sweet treats a lot. He’s the kinda bitch to drop down after they leave christmas cookies out for “santa” and then leave like he didn’t do shit. Usually whoever eats them before he can get to them is dead before they know what happened. That or they have bugs put in their bed or something and are tormented for a few days as punishment

Oh! And for anyone curious-

Note

[1/2] I've been wondering about prosopagnosia for a while now since I am indeed able to recognize people very well to the point where, upon the first sight, I mistake new people for others with strikingly similar features - or, at least in my opinion similar (I had other people tell me they don't agree with my observations). It happened once that I confused two persons I knew where separate people: I talked to P1 at one occasion and some time later at another I talked to P2 where I couldn't make

[2/2] sense of their (to me) puzzling reactions until some time later. I figured I talked to P2 and not P1 but treated P2 as I would have P1, leading to the weird encounter. Apart from that, I can't depict people's faces in my imagination (not even family) but, as I said, I *do* recognize people incredibly well when I see them. Does that have anything to do with prosopagnosia at all? Could you make sense of it?

*has to look up “prosopagnosia” * Ah! Face blindness. THIS GOES ON MY NEW WORD LIST!

Sounds like face blindness to me! Because you obviously are thinking that you recognize people by their faces, but actually failed to notice a face was different.

I also have face blindness pretty bad, so here’s what happens in my brain.

Let’s say I’ve known three people a loooooong time, like, since I was a little child: Bob, Jane, and Alex.

These facial patterns are familiar to my brain. So when I meet a new person, (let’s call them Dave) my brain will try to categorize their face into one of the “familiar” categories, and so it goes “This face most resembles Alex.” So now Dave becomes an Alex-type face in my mind.

Then maybe a few days later, I meet Joe. And my brain goes “Joe’s face most resembles...an Alex face.”

Now Joe is classified in my brain as an Alex-type face.

NOW, to me, Dave and Joe look similar, because my brain associates them with an Alex-type face. They look so similar to me that if they wore the same clothes I would not be able to tell them apart. Because my brain has classified them both as “Alex-type” faces, and that’s all it sees. Because it misses the nuance, the tiny details that make their faces unique, and lumps them allllllll together under the label “Looks like Alex”.

And I will forever confuse them, and so I’ll have to write notes to myself to differentiate them, such as “Dave is taller than Joe” or something else, and I will have to review that note and practice it and still, I’ll have a rough time telling those two people apart for a while, maybe a year.

I have had that experience you described SO often, where I think someone is someone else. I have also thought the same person was two people. I have introduced myself to the same person several times, because I don’t recognize that I’ve met them.

The biggest symptom of face blindness for me though is when I see a person outside of context, I do not recognize them at all. For example, if I am in a grocery store and someone comes up to me and goes “Hi, Snazzy! How’s your mom doing after her surgery?” Obviously this person knows who I am, and knows details about my personal life. But I do not recognize them at all, because let’s say they’re from work. And I have never seen them outside of work. And so they are categorized in my brain as “work-person”, and it cannot recognize them in another environment.

I used to ask people “Who are you, where do I know you from?” in these situations, but they tend to get very offended. So now I just play along, and pretend I recognize them, and tell them about my mother or whatever, and then obsess for like a week trying to figure out who they were (sometimes I get it, sometimes I don’t).

The most hilarious is when I don’t recognize my own relatives outside of houses where I’m used to seeing them. They’re used to it though, and we laugh about it later.

Life, For Dummies p2

a/n: quarentine’s brought out the worst in me, does anyone know anything anymore? idk... i hope you all enjoy part 2! part 3′s got the spice in my mind’s plotting... slow burn anyone???

It had been roughly a week since you’d join the Master on his TARDIS. It was cozier and the console room was an actual room, like a living room. Sure it had all the little knobs and a control center, but it had a mini kitchen and couches and soft chairs. As well as whatever books he had been reading at the moment.

Homey. Comforting even.

Today’s adventure was less relaxing than his first he brought you on: A spa planet. Three whole days of being rubbed down, being fed gorgeous tasting health foods and relaxation. Closest to being a dog that chills in a rich socalite’s handbag all day. He of course, joined you in these revelries, and you even joined him as he made little jokes about other species' appearances and gossip.

This time was him killing off an entire planet for a Empress’s cheek. He offered you pour over coffee and a Danish as he giggled over the ash filling the air from an Adirondack chair as you tried to mentally stop yourself from crying over this. You, Y/N, were here with a genocidal maniac and you should really get a grip. You signed up for this. Anything you saw was your own fault, you told yourself as you cautiously took the coffee from the man and sat next to him.

“I can tell you’re thinking, love.” He said, “Why don’t say what’s on your mind? Hmm?”

“Why me?” You tore your eyes away from the sight of a giant building falling downwards on itself. “You could have taken Yaz or Ryan or hell, even pick some schlub off the streets!”

He raised his hand and raised his voice. “So the Doctor’s the only one who can take a pet or two or more?” His eyebrows raised, there he was, always sprinkling in the word “pet” usually it brought a shiver down your spine. But not today. Not now.

You huffed and groaned, rubbing your finger into your eye, “No, Master-” you said the word as if it wasn’t your kink, but a derogatory term. “Why me? What do you expect? Huh? You’re gonna go after her one day and I will be there, looking like a traitor or a double agent or what the fuck ever, and here I am, getting attached to you and I’ve just seen you nuke a fucking civilization? I’ve never seen that happen besides like, footage of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.” You manually stopped him with a raised hand and all the venom you could shoot from your eyes. “I can’t yet reconcile friendships! It’s like eighth grade all over again and Tammy doesn’t like Britney and Britney is friends with Joe but Joe like likes Tammy and Joe’s just over here wanting to blow his brains out!” You gesticulated this flowchart of emotional entanglement before slamming down the coffee and deciding to slam the TARDIS door shut. You didn’t want an answer anymore. You accidentally revealed too much.

You didn’t know what you felt anymore.

Sure, the man was hotter than your wildest fantasies of what a hot person could look like, and the name was enough to bring out any other types of fantasies you could have. It’s not like you weren’t already shaking off dirty thoughts about him and various pieces of furniture in here.

The Master frequented between slightly soft and vulnerable to ready to kill off anyone. That wasn’t the most stable of mindsets.

You began shaking where you stood. What if he was now going to kill you? You were a lot more disrespectful than the Empress was. Your breathing became erratic and there was a definite lump in your throat forming. This, out of all the ways you thought death would come to you, especially since Time Lords entered your life, wasn’t how you expected to die.

He slammed open the door and you let out a scream before dissolving into hysterics. The scrap of dignity you had left told you not to beg for your life.

For a split minute you tried to gather yourself up and over before getting back up and spitting through your tears, “Kill me, go ahead, I dare you to!” Your breathing sped up as your heart slammed, threatening to break your rib cage. You were so close to pissing yourself as you scrunched up your eyes, you didn’t want to see your death or the man before you shrinking you to dinky size.

Would it hurt? You thought as you mentally started internerising all you hadn’t accomplished in life and the pile of dirty clothes you left at home.

“Well,” Trying to sound braver than you were, “Get on with it!”

Mirthful laughter started and got louder as you closed your eyes tighter and evened out your breathing. “Kill me!” It came out half begging at this point, the coffee stirring up the acid in your stomach

It was a second later that a sarcastic sounding applause started and you opened up your eye, only one. For caution.

“You think I’m going to kill you because you talked back once?” He purred. “Is your opinion of me that warped?”

Pointing outside, “I have my rights to think that!”

“Oh please, she thinks she can speak to anyone in any tone all her life and doesn’t like when people tell her no once, so I had to. The rest of the people are just a perk to add to her little lesson in decorum…”

“Not fucking funny!” Hauling out and hitting him in the arm, “You really had me going! I aged more in the past minute than I have all my life!” You sat down and moaned in pain as you massaged your forehead and worked on breathing.

“It was fun, loads of it. You gotta admit it.”

You groaned and leaned backwards on the couch pulling the thick afghan over your face. “Sadist.” You muttered into the thick weave.

It could have been your imagination, but you for a split second thought you heard from the other side of the room, “And don’t you love me for it.”

It could have been your dirty imagination creeping up again. Maybe…

It was like he could read your mind, and it was his own monkey bars to swing around on.Testing you out and seeing how you’d react.

Not that you’d expect someone who’s name was The Master to do anything differently…

Not that when you saw him and learned what his name was that you weren’t gunning to board the plane into subspace from dipshit-ville.

Hearing him start the TARDIS up and go for another destination, you pulled it off your face and around you like a shawl, “So why does yours change shape all the time and seem like you don’t have to run around the console?”

“Hers is meant for multiple people to fly and it’s very, very broken.”

Of course, you rolled your eyes.

“It’s supposed to blend in, do what it’s pilot says. You know, rather like a car. You wouldn’t bring a dinky muddy Jeep Wrangler to a proper black tie event? Would you.” He flipped a switch and started entering coordinates into the touch screen.

“If you ain’t a pussy.” You muttered again. The statement smacked of classism you felt.

He elected to ignore that. Thank G-d.

“So what are you in the mood for, Y/N? The best traditional Earth food the 34th century can offer or a nice shallow grave I can chuck your willing corpse into.” He smirked and wrinkled his nose at you.

“Woah. King of the non-sequitur.”

“What even is ‘traditional’ Earth food?” Last time you checked, there were hundreds of what could be argued as “traditional” Earth foods. Your curiosity was genuinely piqued. “Yeah…” you nasalled, “Gimmie the best Earth food the 34th century can offer!” You leaned back down on the couch.

“Get dressed better.” He ordered.

You slumped off to the massive wardrobe and got something comfy yet nice looking. Just in case you had to run away from an explosion or something.

Schlepping out of the depths, you twirled around, “I’m decent.”

He made a noise like the Jeopardy buzzer. “Utterly not. Try again.”

You did.

Another buzzer noise.

Third times a charm, you even put on a nice corset dress and a slide-on pair of sneakers.

He marched you up in yourself ranting about how humans couldn’t be half-arsed to make their own decisions and he should just start picking your clothing out for you.

You held your tongue and just waited for it to be over.

“Get undressed.” He flipped a hand at you.

Of all the places to strip down, in front of an alien was not on the list. It wasn’t like it was the person at the lingerie store sizing you up for a bra and panties. It was a man, alien albeit, and he was seeing you in your Hello Kitty underwear and tattered nude bra. Humiliating.

“What do I even wear? You couldn’t even whip out the Space-Zagat or tell me how many Space Michelin Stars this place has!” You covered your stomach with your hands in an attempt at modesty.

He went over to the hanger next to the door and seemingly manifested a shimmery purple ombre tulle gown and some glitzy silver strap heels.

He hastily unzipped it and said, “Pop in.” and you slid in as he zipped it up, you felt the warmth of his hands linger on the small of your back and the nape of your neck. He took his index finger and slid it up, the corner of the nail slightly catching on the soft baby hairs at the bottom of your scalp. You shivered and had a sharp intake of breath. You nearly felt more tears spring up for today. That felt good.

Suddenly, you felt a clink of a thick chain lock around your neck. “Turn around…” He ordered again, softly. He pointed towards a mirror. The sight of yourself was bewildering. It was off the shoulder and flattered you a little too much. It, paired with the solid gold chainmail necklace made you look almost regal? Queenly. All the big words.

“Oh wow…” The words almost came out a choked garble, and yet barely above a whisper. The image before you was beautiful, and he was looming in the background, dressed to the nines to match in purple and gold.

Then you exhaled.

You looked like a power couple, like Bradjelina before the split, or Michelle and Barack Obama. You were sad how well you looked together. Though, how can an alien, especially when you saw what the females of the species did- eat a bar of soap and act like a racoon on trash night.

You shook the lovely thoughts of that away. Tonight and the sensation of his slightly calloused, warm hands on your body were enough lust for one lifetime.

“We’ve arrived.” He noted, drawing you out of yet another blank faced reverie.

You and your damn reveries.

That’d be your death.

Sashaying out as he took your hand and led you into this obviously very fancy and very expensive restaurant’s coat room from what looked like a small cupboard he led you to the reception where a humanoid with grey skin and spikes on their nose sat, “Name?” They drew lazily, a curious brow spike raised at the pair of you.

“You will give us the best table and give us the best recreation-vintage.” He stated as if he was asking the weather. The creature looked dumbstruck and walked you to the table at the end of the dining hall, looking out on the vastness of space with planets twinkling and stars churning out light in the distance. The darkness contrasted well with the silver and whites of the place.

As if by meaning, the pair of you stood out. Everyone else was in muted silver tones and you were specks of color demanding attention and respect. The center of a very odd universe.

“Cotes du Rhone Red…” The waitstaff converged to you, “Sir, the finest of the Spiced Cheese Triangles...made this morning.” “Madame…” They all started simping postulating towards you.

Once you got your orders taken, you bit into one of the so called “Spiced Cheese Triangles”, it was a Dorito.

“These are Doritos.” You whispered scandalised. “Do-rit-os.” He laughed, “Classic Earth food. You know how it is. The poor people love the food, the rich come in, spruce up the area, paint over the color, then charge a dozen times more for the same food. Don’t you know gentrification when you see it?”

You guwaffed before taking a sip of your wine. The place was quiet except for the hushed chatter and soft sounds of eating. No music. Just the chasm of looking out into space. You rested your chin on your wrists and looked out. Where were you? Where was this place? So many questions scraped around your brain.

“You’re in the Black Eye Galaxy…” He responded quietly, “At the corner of it that looks into the mighty center…”

You poked at your temple then towards his face. “I knew it!” You accused in a breath. “You can read my mind!” You leaned back and crossed your arms, “And you have me scrambling to find words every second of every day.”

He winked. “A little. Human brains are very easy to rifle around in. I try not to read yours. Out of respect. I don’t mean to, all Time Lords are sensitive to the psychic vibrations of others. I was just a little more good at that when I was child. I use it to my advantage. Especially all things…” He trailed off, eyes growing dark. You made a mental note to pry later. Then tried to hide that and wipe it. He could read your mind, and you had to wrap your mind around that and compartmentalize that for another day. You didn’t want to ruin this lovely moment. Or a lovely half of a moment since it suddenly got dark. Your food got served and you continued to stare off into the great abyss of space.

“Y/N?” Asked the Master.

“Yes, Master?” You looked at him. His eyes were impossibly large and impossibly soft, framed by the longest and softest black lashes. It was strange how a man so universally feared and prone to fire-starting was capable of such a baby face.

“I want you to tell me what you’re thinking. I’d rather not read your mind.”

You felt yourself swallow a sudden lump in your throat.

“I’ll work on it.” You promised.

Were you falling in love with him? Was this love? More confusion ebbed at your head. You scraped at your eyebrow with your pinky nail.

You shoved that down deep into the caverns of your brain, where you kept your ballerina dreams and daddy issues.

You ate quietly. He barely seemed to touch a thing however. The evening drew on in a realm between too comfortable and oddly disheartening.

As the evening drew to a close, he didn’t even pay. He just said to the waitress, “We’re finished.” And walked back to the TARDIS. This time not holding your hand. You didn’t know if that was a sign for you to grow up and stop fantasizing. You could take a hint. You weren’t as dumb as you looked.

You marched to your room and couldn’t yet bear to rip your beautiful outfit from yourself. Especially the necklace, it felt oddly right. Like a collar or a letterman jacket. Something definitive of a bond. You sniffled. No more tears.

Wall of emotional protection, back up. Time to protect yourself. There’s no condom for your heart- you told yourself.

You went out back to the small kitchenette in the console room and made yourself a cup of tea to settle your stomach and saw him leaning over the counter of his little planning station, papers askew, hair mussed. It was sinful for one man to look insanely good while plotting something.

“You’re still dressed?” He asked. Of course he’d stripped into something more comfortable, an unbuttoned waistcoat and jeans, a simple light purple button up. Did he sleep? You were contemplating PJs.

“Yeah. Problem?” You shrugged.

The look given was indescribable.

“Utterly indecent.” He shook his head. He turned away for a second to bookmark the thick book he had. The way his jeans- midrise- shift around his bum was something funky. His hips were a bit wide so they slung over his body lavisciously. You caught yourself staring at it

“Oh for fucks sake.” He said looking at you, your mouth sideways gaped, like you were some truck driver eyeing up a dime a ride whore at the stop. For all the rollercoaster of the day, the Master was breathtaking to look at.

He was in your mind again, and you were too tired and emotionally strung out to care.

“I just want tea.”...and you, you mentally added, hoping that he’d get the subtext and either kill you to stop you from humiliating yourself further or make a move. Either or, it was something.

He made a tutting noise and said, “Oh, you’d have to give me something in return.” A grin that was thoroughly wicked and possibly evil crept up and warmth flooded his eyes. His perfectly white teeth flashing dangerously in the ambient lighting.

“What’s that?” You opened the line for bartering. You slid onto the table he was working at. Tea could wait for a second. Things just got interesting.

He put one of those larger than life hangs on your neck and rested the crook of his thumb on your jaw, and petted it slightly. The rest of his fingers slightly applied a pressure to the base of your skull. His eyes traced over your face as he contemplated. He licked his lips slightly before speaking.

“I want you, fully. No more thoughts of ‘Oh, what if the Doctor catches us?’ or if you’re a traitor to her just because you are mine now. If she was truly a friend to you, and not just a preoccupation…”He cocked his head and focused his eyes on your lips. “She’d grant you this…” He moved his thumb down to the hollow of your jaw and pressed it. “She’d let you.” You closed your eyes and fluttered your eyelashes flipping around the millions of pro’s and con’s. You felt yourself relax and your body made your choices for you, you weren’t fighting it anymore.

“What do you say, love?” He breathed in a husky tone.

“Yes.”

“Yes, who?” He chided in a guiding tone.

“Yes, Master.”

“Good girl.” He laughed and dipped you down on the table inhaling your lips inward and pressed down with his free hand on your hip.

Giving up never would feel so good...

About Last Night - P2

A/N So i know I have a million other requests but I’m a sucker for this story sooooo here’s part 2222 lel enjoy!!

Mon 12:00pm

Sirius ~ So before I read the weekend news, should I be worried about seeing any murders I was supposed to be involved in? ~

Y/N ~ Don’t worry I planted your fingertips everywhere so they’ll know you were involved as well ~

Sirius ~ Oh thank god, I needed something to destroy my reputation ~

Y/N ~ And what reputation is that? ~

Sirius ~ Oh you know, cool edgy creative writing major with a soft side ™ ~

Y/N ~ Dear god you’re one of them :O ~

Sirius ~ Ur DiffEReNT thAN OthER giRlS ~

Y/N ~ **Blocked**

Sirius ~ I sincerely hope you know I was joking ~

Y/N ~ I guess I’ll have to find out :P What are you up to today? ~

Sirius ~ Well apart from giving my alibi to police, I have about 3 hours of classes today and an essay due ~

Y/N ~ Wow, that sounds like a super fun day – any good classes? ~

Sirius ~ Yeah I’m enjoying my lit class at the moment, we are doing genre fiction at the moment so looking into how writers create worlds, even within our own world, and why genre fiction is so looked down upon in literature society ~

~ and now that I’ve typed that out I am realising that it probably doesn’t sound wildly interesting ~

Y/N ~ Hahaha nah it does! That would be cool to learn about, I’m a sucker for genre fiction tbh, could never read the classics ~

Sirius ~ That just means you never found a good classic 😉 – What kinda stuff do you read? ~

Y/N ~ look I want no judgement here… I honestly mostly read fantasy/ sci-fi ~

Sirius ~ Have you read Dune?? ~

Y/N ~ Yes !!! Holy shit such a good series !! ~

Sirius ~ I’ve been trying to get my mates to read it for a LIFETIME its so good ~

Y/N ~ I would have thought Remus would have read them? He’s always got a new book with him ~

Sirius ~ I didn’t know you knew Remus as well? But yeah, he in theory would but he also has a long list of to reads and wants to go through them one after another ~

Y/N ~ Yeah, he studies with Lily a lot and I sometimes join them 😊. Also jesus that’s commitment, I’m usually picking up another book whilst I’m halfway through another ~

Sirius ~ I have no idea how he does it, if I’m being honest, if I hate a book I just don’t finish it (please don’t tell my literary friends I told you that, I would be killed in my sleep) ~

Y/N ~ Haha your secret is safe with me – imo I reckon that’s the best way to read, like why force yourself through something just because it’s a classic or whatever, I feel like that’s why so many people don’t read a lot you know? ~

Sirius ~ Completely! I actually just realised I have no idea what you study? ~

Y/N ~ Ahh that’s because I’ve been avoiding the question ~

Sirius ~ It can’t be worse than creative writing – I won’t even get a job after uni ~

Y/N ~ Oh believe me, it is. I study communications ~

Sirius ~ Oh dear lord you are every white girl who ever existed ~

Y/N ~ I know, I’m perpetuating the stereotype its very disappointing tbh ~

Sirius ~ So is that where you work then? ~

Y/N ~ Wow you remember a lot haha yeah, I’m doing an internship in social media management, it’s surprisingly soul-sucking ~

Sirius ~ Is that surprising… 😉 ~

Y/N ~ I mean, that was thinly veiled sarcasm haha but it’s actually not all bad, the strategy behind content etc is actually pretty interesting, and I’m working for an eco-friendly company so at least I get to come up with cool environmental memes ~

Sirius ~ Ahh yes, hit the youth with the memes ~

Y/N ~ See, you’re learning the comms ways already ~

Thurs 11:28pm

Y/N ~ Whats ya facebook? ~

Sirius ~ Uhhh… Sirius Black? It’s not wildly hard to find, why? ~

Y/N ~ I’m gonna be real, I would like to stalk you ~

Sirius ~ Is this Y/N? ~

Y/N ~ :O ok you’ve known Y/N like 2 days how did you guess that ~

Sirius ~ Cause this message felt like one of those old school msn ‘my friend hacked me !!!’ ~

Y/N ~ You’re a smart boi, Black ~

Sirius ~ thank you kindly stranger ~

Fri 6:45 am

Y/N ~ I AM SO SORRY ~

~ MARLENE STOLE MY PHONE ~

~ I PROMISE I’M NOT A STALKER ~

Sirius ~ Why on earth are you awake right now ~

Y/N ~ Because my body never allows me to sleep in ~

Sirius ~ how rude, also don’t worry I accepted your Facebook request so you can stalk all you want 😉 ~

Y/N ~ Literally am going to stab Marlene ~

Sirius ~ At least she’s up front ~

Y/N ~ Wait why are you awake rn? ~

Sirius ~ James wants to make the firsts soccer team at uni and has decided I must train with him ~

Y/N ~ Well that’s gross ~

Sirius ~ Couldn’t have said that better myself ~

Y/N ~ so what does this training consist of ~

Sirius ~ Mainly James trying to shoot balls at my head as I attempt to goal keep ~

Y/N ~ Can’t see that ending well ~

Sirius ~ Excuse you, I happen to be VERY athletic. I am a multisided human being thanks ~

Y/N ~ I am so sorry to have placed my predisposed ideas on you ☹ pls forgive ~

Sirius ~ I will have to think about it – right now James wanted me to do suicides and I must go into hiding ~

Y/N ~ Godspeed ~

Sun 2:58pm

Y/N ~ Ok I know I promised not to stalk, but what the fuck is going on in this picture ~

~ file ~

Sirius ~ oh no no no no no no no no ~

Y/N ~ ehheheheheheheheh ~

Sirius ~ I really thought my privacy settings were better than this ~

Y/N ~ Yeah this was very easy to find ~

Sirius ~ I’m going to kill James ~

Y/N ~ You can’t blame james for this beauty ~

Sirius ~ Oh I really can, he decided it would be hilarious for us to have a photoshoot when I was completely trashed one night. And then proceeded to post everything and tag me ~

Y/N ~ James sounds like a fun night out ~

Sirius ~ I wouldn’t say that to lily ~

Y/N ~ What she doesn’t know won’t kill her 😉 ~

Sirius ~ You are slyer than I thought ~

Y/N ~ I think I’m going to frame this photo and place it all over your uni ~

Sirius ~ You wouldn’t ~

Y/N ~ You may need to convince me otherwise ~

Sirius ~ Anything to avoid that embarrassment in my life ~

Y/N ~ Perhaps you’ll just have to owe me for sparing you ~

Sirius ~ I think that’s a fair deal – what about a coffee? ~

Y/N ~ I think a coffee or two would be a fair trade off :P ~

Sirius ~ Well I have the most disgusting week of midterms but perhaps on the weekend? ~

Y/N ~ Sounds LIT ~

Sirius ~ You’ve just made me regret inviting you anywhere ~

Y/N ~ That’s what I’m here for 😉 ~

Wed 3:07pm

Sirius ~ Bit of a creepy question, but did I see you at uni today? Navy Skirt, Black Jumper, & tights?

Y/N ~ Wow you really observe an outfit don’t you ~

Sirius ~ I mean I noticed the outfit cause I thought it looked good and then I realised it was you and so it stuck in my head ~

~ in a less creepy way ~

~ in fact let me just completely start over – were you at uni today? I think I saw you! ~

Y/N ~ Maybe, what was I wearing? ~

Sirius ~ I hate you ~

Y/N ~ 😉 Well to answer your question, yes I was at uni – it was Lily and I’s weekly cheap lunch date ~

Sirius ~ Classy ladies you two are ~

Y/N ~ Couldn’t describe us better myself ~

Sirius ~ Oh by the way, are you going to Remus’ party this Friday? ~

Y/N ~ Mmmm I was thinking about it, why? ~

Sirius ~ No reason, I just knew Lily was invited and he mentioned inviting some of her friends ~

Y/N ~ Mmmm, yeah he told Lily to bring Marlene and me along, unsure though as Lily is particularly annoyed at James this week and he will of course be there and be annoying ~

Sirius ~ What if I can promise he won’t annoy her? ~

Y/N ~ I really don’t think you should make a promise you can’t keep :P ~

Sirius ~ Ah, you underestimate me! James has to go home this weekend to see his parents so he won’t actually be there ~

Y/N ~ This is a very interesting development – we may reconsider ~

Sirius ~ Well Remus does throw a great party ~

Y/N ~ DO you actually know what James did anyway? She usually likes to rant about it but she’s been shut in her room the past 2 days ~

Sirius ~ Honestly I’m not sure, James has been unprecedently quiet as well ~

Y/N ~ Hmmm how odd ~

Sirius ~ Indeed it is ~

Friday 4:42pm

Y/N ~ What are you guys wearing tonight? ~

Marlene ~ Not sure, I’m torn between a velour tracksuit or the classic Canadian tuxedo ~

Lily ~ Both very classy options ~

Marlene ~ You know me, go hard or go hard ~

Y/N ~ You’re both incredibly unhelpful ~

Marlene ~ Worried about meeting a certain dark haired texter? ~

Y/N ~ Am I not allowed to want my best friends’ help on my outfits?? ~

Marlene ~ I mean I can’t help you look hot if I don’t know who its for 😉 ~

Lily ~ God forbid she looks hot for herself ~

Marlene ~ Hey, you’ve gotta play to your audience ~

Y/N ~ How would you even know what he likes ~

Lily ~ She stalked him around campus yesterday ~

Y/N ~ um MARLENE ~

Marlene ~ I just wanted to know his style, habits, if he was a psycho killer ~

Lily ~ She has a point, if he’s as annoying as James we have to protect you at all costs ~

Marlene ~ We need to make sure she isn’t sucked in by his serial killer prowess ~

Y/N ~ You’re making me sound like prey ~

Marlene ~ 😉 ~

Y/N ~ How did you even stalk him, Lily has no classes with him ~

Marlene ~ I have my ways ~

Lily ~ She flirted with the office assistant until she gave her Sirius’ schedule ~

Y/N ~ You minx ~

Marlene ~ No one can resist my charms ~

Lily ~ That is yet to be determined actually ~

Y/N ~ very true Lils, we’ve never met anyone you’ve dated yet ~

Marlene ~ Sooooo not the point, and we’ve gone off topic! How are you going to wow Mr Black ~

Y/N ~ That is 100% not what I asked ~

Lily ~ you may as well have ~

Y/N ~ You both suck ~

Lily ~ Wear that flowy black dress you refuse to ever wear!! ~

Marlene ~ YES YOU LOOK BANGING IN THAT ~

Y/N ~ ugh but it’s a casual party ~

Marlene ~ Who gives a shit, stand out ~

Lily ~ He’ll be drooling ~

Y/N ~ I don’t need him to drool I just want to make a good first impression ~

Marlene ~ Aha the truth finally comes out ~

Y/N ~ if you were actually in your dorm I’d be hitting the roof with a broomstick rn ~

Lily ~ Where are you?? ~

Marlene ~ Where do you think 😉 ~

Lily ~ Not the office assistant ~

Marlene ~ 😉 ~

Lily ~ How!? I was with you the whole time, you never exchanged numbers ~

Behind The Scenes Videos:

youtube

Locations

Chloe’s Apartment - Maze & Trixie (There is all a Trixe-Lucifer scene)

Precinct - Dan, Lucifer and Ella. -Before the bracelets-

Pink Motel - Not a murder scene but I believe they question the owner as he is listed in the cast.

Warner Brothers Stars Hallow Set Area - Open Stages:

1) The Murder Scene - Dan, Ella, Lucifer & Chloe

2) Stage III - The room with the clowns. Prior to Halloween WB had built a clown maze for tourists and its workers although they didn’t the usual annual Halloween attraction but it was not the same one. However, I believe it may have been used for this episode nonetheless.

3) Stage Set - Hell set used as a Tv Series Prop although it acts as our actual Hell as well.

When an episode is shot at the lot it means it costs less money to be made still what it saved them on money it cost them on 1-2 days.

This episode is called from us “Diablo: The Tv Series Episode” and we call it that because that’s what it is. There is no AU here but something like 3x02 where you see our leads investigating a case which is related to a show. Now that show is VERY similar to Lucifer. Extremely so but we will talk about that in a bit.

First of all the main themes of this episode is Lucifer’s ongoing instability but also a problem that seems to tie him eventually to Dan. Dan’s issue in my opinion started either in the first episode but is gradually getting worse so in 5x03 Lucifer provides a temporary solution. But is that him or Amenadiel? As we know Chloe and Amenadiel work together for a bit in this episode.

As always in order to unravel this episode we will rely on the case of the week. Where does the murder takes place? At the WB lot actually, so be prepared to see it again like you did back in 3x26 yet that is a different area.

^Aimee on the left

They also shot at night at Stars Hallow Set.

We have some photos from Josh with Aimee and Kevin where you can clearly see that Dan does not wear the bracelet yet. Same goes with Lucifer’s bracelet at the beginning of the episode neither of them wears it and that makes sense.

Let’s talk now about the victim and the theme of the episode again. For some reason the murder is connected to a television show called ‘Diablo’. We know that because there are several hints and downright spoilers about that like the social media posts of some people which will not be posted for obvious reasons.

Diablo as a show has EVERYTHING Lucifer’s life has. Scratch that everything Lucifer as a show had in its first season down right to the… same poster. Yep!

So when I say everything what do I mean? I mean that there are the following characters who take the place of our main leads:

Lucifer = Diablo

Chloe Dacker = Detective Dancer

Maze = Blaze (male)

Dan Espinoza aka Det. Douche = Det. Dooffus

We do not know who else is featured but I would expect Linda, perhaps Trixie and Amenadiel to have their own counterparts.

^ Dancer was originally Chloe’s surname in the Kapinos Pilot do not be surprised is you see Linda being played by a Kim...

Yet who would do that? Who would make a Tv Show that resembles so much Lucifer’s life? My first thought was Ella but then I found a BTS about an Alex Lopez and I assumed he was one of her brothers taking advantage of her workalike stories. Although that may be true then how could anyone know how the actual Hell looks like?

One day I got a glimpse of a woman which I think was Inbar on set. Additionally, at that time, Inbar Lavi posted a few S4 photos which seemed a bit peculiar. Therefore if Inbar was on set and is the person who made the tv series Diablo we are in for a hoot!

If that happens it means that Eve has found her way and she might eventually find her way back to Maze’s life in P2. Of course, that’s a speculation but we can always hope!

The next question is why would our writers do that to Lucifer? Why would they put him through an experience that shows him his work and partnership so obviously to him through a series like Diablo? As we know Lucifer is a bit thick sometimes so for all the characters it would be nice to acknowledge certain dynamics as seen from a show that is, of course, a caricature of the actual actors.

I mean Diablo has frozen tips, Det. Doofus looks downright clueless and Blaze… Blaze is the equivalent of Maze but big… Congrats Eve! If that was you, of course, you made Maze looking butch!

So in that episode, Lucifer needs to come face to face with the facade of his life in Hell but also on Earth and I believe it’s time for him for another breakthrough. The same goes for the rest of the leads.

I stand by the opinion I posted on Twitter that 5x03 as far as I see it is a wake-up call that no matter for how long you keep a costume & a mask on that's not who you are. It's also a point where Lucifer's work & partnership may finally be unveiled for what they truly are. All that while they search for a solution. Yet for what solution do I talk about?

Something is wrong with Dan perhaps even Lucifer but I do believe the origin of the problem is Dan due to Lucifer’s actions back in 5x01. If I had to guess I would say that they need a way to make sure Dan is kept alive that a life source is sustained and that requires a link which I suppose is the bracelet. But that it’s just a temporary solution, the permanent one will come in 5x08 and will have its own consequences!

In any case we do have Lucifer and Chloe going to the Pink Motel for some questioning but then… then it seems like Lucifer disappears for a bit. If my speculation is correct during his recovery the events of 5x04 will happen but that will be explored in the next S&S!

The Pink Hotel is considered a landmark btw.

Let’s say now that half of the episode is almost gone perhaps less, 15 min? And we have Lucifer out of commission or perhaps they search with Dan for what they need. That leads to two different groups working and I do not mean that it will be necessary on the case.

^LUX as Hell it even has poles...

*cough* priest collard male strippers*

On one hand, you have Lucifer and Dan. When Kelly Clarkson visited the penthouse aside from several cool parts of that episode like LUX that is now called HELL in the Diablo series we also had a glimpse of a book…

A book? Again? You may lament like Mum at the end of 2x17. Well yes, a book… an ancient book which it may or may not be related to this episode although I will speculate that it is. For me, that book reminded me the Book of Destiny…

In order to understand what that means I have put some strips from the comics here for you. Lucifer and that book or to put it right Destiny, one of the Endless have had a disagreement about that book before but it didn’t work out that well…

The Book of Destiny as Sandman’s and Lucifer’s comics inform us:

“It contains your life. Every detail of your life. Everything that has happened to you. Everything that will happen one day. The things you have forgotten (ALERT on that one). The things you do not believe.”

Yet the writers have never used a source from the comics without altering it so beware of that. It may be something that is based on that book or carries certain attributes of it.

So let’s assume that that book helps them create the bracelets and thus Dan remains alive for the time being. Also, does that mean that Dan will be exposed to the Devilish truth? If this speculation is correct I do not see how he can avoid it. At the same time learning all about Mom and most importantly Charlotte will do him A LOT of good. Yes, he has been healing in his own terms but whoever has lost someone knows that the pain never goes away it always nags you so I think it will make that pain a bit duller.

^Do not forget that Dan’s office area is full of motivation quotes... Do not be surprised if he is in therapy again in s5...

While Lucifer and Dan are preoccupied we have Chloe and Amenadiel working together I believe somewhat on the case or trying to help Dan. Who knows it might even be Eve - again IF she appears in that episode - who will give the temporary solution they need.

What intrigues me in DB’s photo from that episode is the official one that was released at ET where he is in front of a clown. It looks like a weird scary place, a theme park perhaps or even a set…

We do know that there were two crews and that scenes of the Diablo episode were requiring two crews, I mean would you let an actor near your 40K camera? Nope!

So the circus/clown scene is what interests me most as I have no idea what is going on there… What I do know is that it corresponds with Ella’s shirt. Ella’s shirt has a clown on and it says ‘Big Clown’ and something other underneath yet on the murder scene she wears a light blue shirt.

Additional Info

We have a Scene at the Penthouse which may be connected with the scene of Maze and Trixie at the Decker Household. However! Scarlett almost always shoots more than one episode so it is possible that it might be connected to 5x04. Still we take it as if it is for 5x03.

There is a fight scene with Maze and Lucifer against some people. Still, Ellis’ stuntman also filled in for a different role this time so that might have been for the Diablo show.

Finally, we did have Linda on set and there was a photo from within her house. Scenes from Linda’s house or her office during her sessions with Lucifer are rare so most of the time we do not know they are happening.

A background extra who played a police officer in this episode made it to an actor with lines. Of course now we know that she will have that role up to 5x08 yet we do not know if she will survive the serial killer ordeal of the last two episodes of S5 Part 1…

Additional bts of that episode including the Kelly Clarkson photos etc.

^Did you see Marcus’ honourary tablet?

^And of course the mermaid is back at her rightful place. It was there also in S4 but appeared only at a bts with Inbar. :)

A Battle of Giants P2

Pairing: Selene (OC) x Sheamus (former), future Selene x Damian Priest, Hunter(Triple H), Matt Riddle

A/N: This took a bit longer to get written up.

Tag List: @evilangel84 @gold--gucciempress @tacoshu @ladytea19 @the-carter-mob-don

Part 1 Part 3 Part 4

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few months went by after signing her new contract with Hunter to be on NXT. Contact with Sheamus was next to nothing but Selene didn’t mind it. Instead of worrying about where that “relationship” stood, she focused all her energy on getting back into the ring as soon as she could without any setbacks.

Selene started her day like she has the past few weeks, at the Performance Center. She has been spending most of her time in the weight room working on building her strength. She was looking forward to start working in the ring for her return, just waiting on the doctors to clear her.

From what Hunter told her, she was going to be the fifth member of the NXT women’s Survivor Series if everything was on track. From what she heard, everything was on track which made everyone happy.

Selene had her hair pulled up into a messy bun. Her earbuds in and listening to an audio book, one of her favorite books by Christine Warren Black Magic Woman. She knew it was pretty risky to listen to the story as it unfolded when anyone can come up and try to talk to her. It didn’t help that she has thought countless times about being half of the main couple all while thinking that the Archer of Infamy, Damian Priest, was the other half of that couple.

She forced herself to focus on the task at hand. She focused on the weights in her hands all while carefully doing lunges. If she hadn’t looked up when she did, she wouldn’t have caught sight of Damian working out. He was starting to work up a sweat and his skin started to glow. In that moment, she decided to call it a day in the weight room.

Unfortunately for Selene, she had to walk right pass Damian to leave the weight room. She grabbed her towel and decided to act as if she didn’t see him. She walked passed him and as if her body had a mind of its own, her hips swayed from side to side with a bit of sass. This was kinda a first for her, she never really got nervous around a guy. Well she got nervous around Sheamus but she chalked that up to be lust. Damian was a whole different kind of beast, he was only an inch taller but he had long hair like Roman and tattoos that littered his skin.

Selene shook her head, ridding herself the thought that Damian was a beast. A thought she didn’t need while she was around a dozen or so other people. As she walked out of the weight room, she practically ran into Hunter.

“Oh lord, sorry Hunter. I didn’t see you there.” She felt so small standing next to Hunter.

“It’s ok, Selene. I was just coming to look for you.” A look of confusion or even wonder took over her face. “I wanted to let you know that our doctors have medically cleared you this morning. Which means you can start preparing for your comeback.” He couldn’t help but smile down at her. He knew that this was something that she was waiting to hear.

“This is the best news I heard all day.” She couldn’t help the smile that took over her face. Am I getting a training partner or are you going to be helping me?”

“Actually, I’ll be watching over your training sessions.” He looked over her head into the weight room, thinking of who could be Selene’s training partner. He looked over at Matt Riddle.

Selene noticed that he was looking at someone and turned to look at who he was looking at. When her eyes landed on Riddle, she turned back to Hunter. “There is no way in hell I’m working with Riddle. Can’t I work with Rhea or Candice or even Dango or Breeze. Hell I’d would rather work with Breeze and Dango, they know how I move in the ring.”

“Sorry Selene, I had already talked to Riddle and he gladly accepted to help you.” Selene clearly didn’t look happy with this decision. “Don’t look so sad. Think of it as a way to kick his ass like I can see you want to do.” “I’ll work with him on one condition.”

“What’s that?”

“His dumb ass is wearing shoes. I ain’t gonna work with him on my training if he is bare foot.” She gave him a pointed look.

“I’ll see what I can do about that. You know he likes..”

“I honestly don’t care if he likes to wrestle in a monkey suit. He is wearing shoes or I will find someone, by myself, to train with.”

Little did Selene know that some of the people in the weight room heard her. They all knew better than to raise their voice even a little to Hunter. Clearly Selene’s tone didn’t faze Hunter which shocked everyone.

“Fine. If he does anything you don’t like, to a reasonable degree, you can tell him to get lost.”

“Thank you, Hunter.” She nodded at him before walking by him.

As she walked away she could hear the annoyingly familiar sound of skin hitting sandals. Clearly Riddle started to follow her down the hall. Her nerves were starting to go on edge, just the sound of his sandals were annoying.

“Yo Selene.” His voice caused her to wince in annoyance.

“What Riddle.” She turned and looked up at the man before her, annoyance clear on her face.

“Woah, calm down bro.”

“First of all. I ain’t your bro.” She used air quotes when she said the word bro. “Second, I want you to know that I do not like you. So if at any time you say something I find stupid during training, I will not hesitate to throw a kick or punch you in the face.”

“Hey now, there is no need for violence.” He held his hands up as if he was surrendering while she stared at him like she was ready to stab him. “I just wanted to talk to you about your wrestling style so I can help you train.”

“Well, I do a mix of a lot of things. You’ll just have to wait till tomorrow to find out.” She looked down at her phone, at the time. “I have plans right now so I don’t have time to really talk about it.”

“Ok, we can talk about it tomorrow then.”

“How about you watch some old PPV’s and what’s on the network to get a feel for what I do.” She started to walk away. “I’ll be in in the morning so we can start then.”

Damian walked up and stood next to Matt. His eyes locked on Selene as she walked away. He looked her small frame up and down, taking in the way she walked further from them. His noticed a piece of a tattoo poking out from the bottom of her sports bra/top. He thought for a moment as to what the tattoo might be but his attention was pulled away by the man next to him.

“Someone is full of herself.” Matt looks at the direction Selene went. “Telling someone who just asked about their wrestling style to go watch what’s on the Network, like that can really help. You know what I mean, bro.”

“Honestly, she doesn’t seem full of herself.” He looked slightly down at Matt. “She is confident in her move set which doesn’t surprise me.”

“Bro, were you listening to her or were you checking her out?” He smirked a little before he continued. “If you really want to see her in action, come watch us train tomorrow.”

The thought never really crossed his mind. This was the same woman who bumped into him several months ago when she had a cast on her leg. He honestly didn’t think she was going to be this sassy or maybe she just didn’t like Matt, which wouldn’t be a surprise since not everyone can handle his personality. The thought of watching her in her element would be interesting to see. Seeing as Finn had mentioned something about her in-ring split personality.

“I might have to take you up on that.” Damian tied his hair up and walked towards the locker room. Thinking of what the little spitfire Selene had in store for Matt tomorrow.

EXAMINING THE ‘TRUTH’ PT. 2

Continued from this post.

We’re still examining claims https://www.themovementisalie.com made about on their front page. Next stop, this.

https://www.themovementisalie.com/evidence/

Whoo. This page is a doozy. (Not really.) As of time of typing, there are 8 articles on the page. First one.

There’s no evidence provided, actually. 3 5tas were mentioned; one cannot associate a single 5ta with the hundreds of teams in the DOA or the tens of teams in Libertas. It’s as though individual teams have individual desires and directions that are separate from their alliances, and participation in an alliance cannot be conflated with participation in a whole new poorly conceived rebel faction that doesn’t even know what it’s doing.

(I’m also amused by how nefarious Mr Odin was singled out as a member of the black suit club theMovement. I bet they do shady drug deals and occasionally run away from the LAW enforcers...?) It’s interesting how Warenforcers were singled out in this page, too. Why does this author care so much about the possible allegiance of this one single team beyond their status as an ‘enemy’?

Next.

At this point I kind of get the feeling that whoever made this website doesn’t really get the point of ‘theMovement’, as they call it. (Is it a band name?)

theMovement is trying to escape ‘Dread tyranny’. theMovement is not attempting to not attack anyone in Atlas, ever. The truth of the matter is this: No one attacks in Atlas for shitty glory for no reason. You either have a castle they want, or you gate for someone they want to get to. Maybe you pissed them off? Maybe they’re trying to hit someone their own size that you gate for. Sure. The website provided screenshots for all the attacks above, but made little to no attempt to give any comprehensive explanation as to why said enemy team could have been attacking them. Image 1 and 2 could literally be anything. A conquer attempt, a gate bubble attempt, whatever. There’s 0 context provided at all.

Image 3 seems to demonstrate how this website thinks that D2 teams should be able to fight Dread, OR ELSE. First of all, league has no relation to Atlas performance and power rank. Additionally, are you trying to control how that team chooses to play Atlas? If they are hitting down for low glory (unlikely for the reasons stated), it is their choice to do so. It’s your prerogative to deal with it. If you hate it so much, give up the castle, go pirate, and open up that team. Nice!

Image 4 suggests that a S1 and D1 team are gunning for a P2 team’s castles. It’s not theft, it’s taking a castle. If said P2 team cannot handle the cost of holding that castle, the P2 team should cut their losses and give it up. It’s not ideal and it’s not how I hope PG intended Atlas to work. But it is how it is, and hitting down is heavily incentivised. There’s no shame to be found in playing a game as it is intended to be played, which is what Harlem and SINNENN (hope I spelt that right) are doing.

It sucks to be the smaller guy, yeah. But that’s something that’s PG’s responsibility to fix. Don’t place the blame on people who’re just playing the game.

Interestingly, you may also notice that none of the teams indicated are listed on the list of teams that theMovement (lol) officially allies themselves with. You can’t extrapolate from limited information given and conclude that so-and-so teams definitely represent the intentions of theMovement. You’ll notice that if all these teams were to work under the mantra of theMovement, it’d be pretty hypocritical, as that would probably fall under being controlled by some evil overlords etc. etc.

My larger issue with these ‘evidence’ pages is that the website pins the term ‘theMovement signatory alliance’ on all these teams without definitive proof with the aim of calling these teams out simply for hitting smaller teams...which is the current encouraged meta in Atlas. It’s terrible for smaller teams, yes, but Imo you’re directing your frustration at the wrong target- if PG would punish hitting down more and incentivise hitting up further, you’d face less attacks from larger teams.

In the meanwhile, don’t forget that it’s your personal choice to hold on to castles you’re getting hit at. Despite Atlas being so inactive, you cannot forget that the benefits you get from each castle come at the cost of the troops you need to field to protect it. If it becomes too much such that you don’t think it’s worth it anymore, consider dropping them.

If you keep them, I don’t think you have the right to complain about the troops you lose defending them. Moral compasses aren’t exactly encouraged to be able to do well in Atlas. For larger teams, it’s either you bubble small gates to get to glory targets/conquer castles, or you sit pretty on your super safe internal castles and swap guards for glory all day, which is definitely not how Atlas was intended to be played. For smaller teams, you hold gates and bleed troops for bigger teams for marginal infra bonuses and to ostensibly ‘help your alliance’. Or you can choose to drop the castles and lose what marginal infra bonuses you have, which will cause you to bleed players/not be able to recruit.

There’s no good choice, really.

Again, don’t blame the players. Blame PG.

- To be continued -

(p1) Hi, I'm writing because I feel there is no hope for me. I'm 30, I live at home where I get verbally mistreated (it was physical when I was younger.) I'm morbidly obese, agoraphobic, I literally didn't leave the house for a 2 year period and still rarely do. I have 0 friends and never had any except a few online ones who ditched me years ago. I was bullied constantly. I have self-harm marks all over my arms. I've NEVER had a job, or finished high school. I still almost never leave the house.

(p2) I’ve asked for help to learn to drive, but they tell me I can’t. I guess because they call me autistic and tell me I am not very smart and make jokes about me having ADHD. I took those comments seriously and they told me I was “looking for problems.” WHAT? I made the mistake of speaking with a few psychiatrists about it who shut me down because, in their words, I didn’t “look” like I had those issues. And that my parents had hard jobs so it made sense they would lash out at me.

(p3) I deal with other issues too like menorrhagia. A doctor had me do an ultrasound (this was like my 3rd one since ‘06) and sent me to a specialist because they saw something. The specialist said she didn’t think anything was there and wasn’t going to actually examine me. I gave up. I’m afraid to speak up for myself, I genuinely don’t understand how to live, make friends, talk to people. I feel like I just have TOO MANY issues. And at my age I don’t see why anyone would bother with me anymore.

(p4) I have an appt with a psych at the same place as the others because I have my city’s free insurance and nowhere else to go. I don’t know if I can do it again after this? I just wanted somewhere to reach out at least one more time :( I’ve reached out to others (like extended family) who will talk to me for a bit then ignore? I can’t help but to feel damaged or like I’m doing something wrong I can’t figure out. I feel like a weak loser and I didn’t try good enough.I’m sorry this is so long

Hello Anon,

I’m mod Bee and I’ll do my best to help you out, but I received help myself from the other mods to write you back. So this is a communal effort!

Thank you for reaching out, and I’m sorry you’re going though such a difficult and distressing situation. You sound strong and tenacious, and I’m proud of you for the way you keep trying to improve your life.

We have some suggestions that we hope can be of help. They’ll concerne:

finding online communities/groups to hang out with

finding a professional that suits your needs

looking for courses you can join

thinking about possible job options

Just an head up: this is going to be long, and it will contain tons of links. I’ll highlight one - that I think it’s most useful - for each section, but I suggest you to go through them all.

1. finding online communities/groups to hang out with

Having friends is important for our mental health, but it can get difficult to make new ones, especially when we’ve been burned before.

Online communities, forums, and groups, can be good places to start looking for friends again. You can approach them with as much caution as you need, and find those people you relate with the most.

If you like games, and rpgs in particular, there are online options that allow you to connect with other others all over the world. Activities like Dungeon&Dragons are based around players’ interactions, so you’d get to know people without putting the stress on forging new friendships. The article 10 Best Online Chat Rooms & Games suggests other equally fitting games.

Forums and groups where you can share your experience and fears are another important tool you can use. I’ve looked into active ones and found Panic Disorder and Agoraphobia Forum, r/Agoraphobia/ (on reddit), bus (a self-harm support forum), Mental health support group and discussion community, Online Support Groups by Turn2Me, PsychForums (Psychology and Mental Health Forums), and the ReachOut app.

Trying with pen pals - a one on one exchange - could also be a good idea: InterPals and PenPalWorld are only two of the many websites dedicated to this purpose. Here’s some tips on how it works.

Finally, there are apps with the specific purpose of finding new friends, like Bumble BFF. Try to see if you there’s one of your liking in this list.

2. finding a professional that suits your needs

We usually recommend what it’s colloquially called “psychiatrist/therapist shopping”, the act of choosing a professional after inquiring what we need to know of their line of work, based on our own wishes, and asking this to more than one.

It’s difficult when insurance covers just a little portion of professionals, but not impossible.

Can’t afford therapy? No insurance? Need low cost options? Here is a great list of ways to get help when money or insurance is an issue.

Therapy For Every Budget: How To Access It

9 Ways to Get Free or Cheap Therapy When You Don’t Have Health Insurance

Dial 211 for Essential Community Services: if you call 211, you can ask about free therapy options in your area, or how to work with you insurance to afford other professionals.

If none of these options work out, and you have to stick with the professional your insurance provides, there are measures you can take that might help making the sessions successful. Check out 21 Tips for getting the most out of each therapy session and How to Talk to Your Doctors When They Don’t Listen.

If your new psychiatrist tries to dismiss you without hearing everything that you have to say, insist that they write on your record exactly what they did and why, and that you absolutely want a copy of it before you exit their room. It’s your right to have both your requests accomplished. I know it’s not easy to have them respected: you’ll probably have to stand your ground and that can be difficult, but I think it’s important for you and fundamental for what you can get out of this session. This is a post with links to various module you can complete to help you assert yourself, which I suggest you to start before going to your appointment, if you can. It can be useful to face your family, too.

Does your insurance cover a different specialist for the gynecological problem your doctor wanted you to check out? Is there any free or low-cost clinic near you, like Planned Parenthood or Free Clinic? You can inquire about their services through email.

3. looking for courses you can join

Online courses can be helpful for a number of things, like keeping busy, learning new stuff, feeling accomplished, and possibly getting some qualifications.

There are some free options that end with a proper certificate, but not all are accredited, meaning that they’re not automatically accepted by employers (they can choose to consider them valid or not). Still, there are no downsides in joining such a course, seeing that it doesn’t cost anything but your time.

Not accredited certificates/no certificates:

Alison’s Diploma Courses and Certificate Courses

FutureLearn doesn’t grant you certificates with their free courses, but it still provides learning access

edX’s Courses

Udemi, not free but it offers up to 90% discounts generally once a month

Learn how to code, a masterpost that lists different courses to learn coding

Free Online Language Courses, a masterpost that lists different courses to learn languages

24 Invaluable Skills To Learn For Free

Accredited certificates
