A little? Maybe you are referring to the bickering during the fight with Geki but Nagisa telling you aren't friends because she was mortified due to you basically exposing her crush to her crush is not little.

Matching is what you were worried about but this isn't a matching problem, this is a saying things you shouldn't problem.

This is confusing. Didn't Honoka get into this because she did what she felt was right this whole episode? With Fujipi, with handing over Mipple and by avoiding Nagisa? She did what she felt was right when she went to save her too. Like Nagisa said, she's not always right. She felt it was right giving up being Cure White and avoiding Nagisa because she thought she didn't want to deal with her. Without sufficient information "the right thing" will feel way different than if you knew all the facts.

True. She shouldn't act like she doesn't want to be close to Nagisa (I'm thinking when Nagisa approached her and Honoka gave her a bunch of excuses). Giving up Mipple isn't very "her" at all, either.

Big Brother Tumblr Tag Game

Rules:

If you are tagged copy and paste the rules and all questions

Answer the questions

Tag 3-5 people to also complete the questions

Tagged by @birthdaykeesha , thanks Justine 💞

About You (feel free to not answer all of these if you aren’t comfortable doing so)

1. Name or nickname? Uly

2. Age/Age Group? 21

3. Zodiac Sign? Virgo

4. Favorite Color? Green

5. Favorite Animal? Sugar Gliders

6. First Season of BB you remember watching? BB15 (sadly)

7. Would you ever want to go on BB, if so, what type of player would you be? YES, omg I daydream every now and then though the reality would probably be much more different. In all honesty, I’d probably be a floater who tries to be in everyone’s good side and hope my social game is good. I’ll probably be evicted mid-jury if i’m lucky

8. Are there other CBS shows you’d want to go on, and if so, why? Survivor omg, another source of daydreams for me. I might end up getting medevaced if i do though

9. What other Reality shows do you watch? Just Survivor, BB, and RPDR honestly, though I used to watch some others like Masterchef, etc.

10. All time favorite houseguest? This is difficult so i’ll just say Da’vonne since she’s who I currently love rn

About the Show

1. What is your all time Favorite twist? I love the Ika shredding letters one and also the Loveita/Kelsey room from BBCAN (even though Kelsey came back instead of Godveita)

2. What is a twist that you like, but kind of flopped? The saboteur twist i thought was really interesting but it just didn’t pan out since miss Annie was evicted first

3. If you were the new Grodner and had to remake the show, what would you keep the same? Nothing LOL except like the general skeleton of the game probs (like HOH and vetos would still exist) 

4. What would you change? Casting is probably the main one, less archetypes, more BIPOC, more LGBTs, etc. Make the show last less days also.

5. What’s your all time favorite comp? Don’t clock me but I love the knockout quiz comps like i love the whole procedure and when it pans out correctly, it leads to so much drama (see BB12)

6. What’s your all time favorite competition? In terms of a specific competition, I like the majority rules comp that Jen won 

7. All time favorite punishment? Paulie’s baking punishment will never not make me LOL. Michelle’s unitard is also a classic and watching her flip out with it on was funny as well

8. If you could bring any houseguest back to be in the house (not to play the game) who would it be and why? I’m going to go with Britney or Da’vonne, they’re both really fun personalities

9. If you could bring any houseguest back to play, who would it be? Candace and Helen from BB15, as well as Dom and Kemi. All deserve a second chance in my opinion

10. What is your most memorable episode? For me, it would be the episode of Miichelle winning HOH in 10

11. If you could have any reality star from any other show on BB who would it be? I would love someone from Survivor, maybe Michaela or Abi Maria? LOL

12. What’s your favorite BB series outside of normal BBUS (normal BBUS does not include CBBUS or BBOTT) BBCAN2 for sure

13. Favorite Julie Chen sign off? I don’t remember ASNDKFNKLAF I’m seriously blanking

14. Is there anything from old BB that you would bring back, why or why not, and if yes, what would it be? Maybe the lack of twists and more genuine casting.

15. If you were in the BB house and you won HoH what album would be in your HoH basket and who would you want to receive a letter from? I would probably have Emotion by CRJ or folklore by TS. My letter would be from my sister probably <3

16. Favorite Alliance? Libra, Keesha, and April.💕Also Candace, Helen, and Elissa

17. Funniest BB moment? Paul losing twice :)

18. Favorite first boot? Annie from BB12 was iconique 

19. Least favorite houseguest? Pail. Cody is getting really close as well.

20. Favorite BB couple? Uhh, pass? Maybe Ika and Dem idk

This or That

mizunosakura replied to your post:                  Eldarya Teaser                

   Aww ;~; It’s not the same without you, Pauly. Now I hope maybe the other teaser will be next week and the episode won’t be until the week after ._. 

TwT~<3 it’s been so long since ive liveblogged an ep......

i think the eldarya ep will come out in 2 weeks but there isn’t really a known pattern when it comes to the way they release teasers/episodes so who knows lol

[paulisliveblogs]

Yeah, buddy, this was inevitable.

They killed another one. Where's the gem? I mean I don't think I ever saw one on him so maybe he wasn't trusted enough to get one? Or like his strength was enough? Or I never noticed.

They're holding hands. One or both is going to go hmph and let go.

They're going to actually talk now? Please? Like Nagisa has gotta apologize and Honoka already did but maybe she's also gotta apologize for leaving Nagisa and Mipple.

Girls, plz, you killed a man. Again.

Maybe it does get easier.

Nagisa, channeling the power of KYS

Called it.

Stop being frustrating and hug each other.

Nagisa, she saved your life, just a thank you shouldn't hurt your pride that much.

They took the wrong one didn't they?

Honoka will see a disastrous attempt at trying to figure out how to apologize, after all.

Honoka shouldn't have been able to have write anything as she had given up Mepple but honestly I've been so mistaken on how these girls' powers work that maybe Nagisa will see how this affected her in there.

I mean, I get why Honoka wouldn't want to keep trying to talk to her, after what Nagisa said, and having apologized twice, it would feel like you're being annoying as hell and there's not anything more to say.

But hadn't Nagisa decided to apologize to her? Like where did that go? Honoka got snappy. Shouldn't Nagisa expect that after what she said?

after the storm

note: This is the epilogue of a (rather disjointed) series of ‘missing’ scenes from the books. While the parts can stand alone, I’ve thrown in some callbacks.  

Other parts:

part 1: stay

part 2: follow

part 2.5: promises

part 3: scar

content warnings: death, corpses, mental illness (non-specific)

She finds Lief in the chapel, sitting amongst the shattered marble. The metal bar from the entrance hall is lying at his feet, and he is leaning against the broken husk of the platform. Three days ago Jasmine nearly died here, choking on her own screams. Lief nearly died here too, saving her.

Now the memory of that chaos and horror barely seems real. Even with the evidence of destruction all around them, it is almost peaceful in this room. Jasmine can barely hear the dull chatter of the crowd outside- the loved ones, still in funeral black, who have formed a line which streams down the palace stairs. Marilen is recording the names and stories of those who have died, while Sharn embraces people collapsing under the weight of their grief. The names of Paff’s victims, of their friends and family, will not be forgotten to history- the people believe it because the king has promised them.  

Jasmine tries not to think of the look on Lief’s face when he saw the crowd. He had stayed for only a few moments, talking to a trembling woman holding a baby, come to register Paulie, husband of Iris. Then he had fled.

Jasmine knew she would find him here.

“Lief,” He is hunched over a book, gnawing anxiously at his chapped lip. At the sound of her voice, his head darts up. He reminds her, not for the first time, of a startled animal, wide-eyed and vulnerable.  

“Jasmine,” He is in desperate need of a razor and a brush. Dark circles have formed around his eyes, as dark as the bruises which mottle his arms. The white powder still floating in the air has settled lightly on his hair and clothes. Kree is standing nearby, watching him carefully, his black feathers coated in the same dust. He calls softly in greeting.

I stayed with him, little one. Like you asked. Not good. Not well.

She knows. As she approaches he reaches out and motions to her side, a question in his eyes. “It feels much better,” Jasmine whispers, smiling.

She is telling the truth, but Lief looks as though he does not believe her. His eyebrows knot, and he glances back at his book. Reeah’s teeth gnash at him, as real and sharp as when they pierced through his body.

Jasmine does not bother asking Lief why he is reading The Deltora Book of Monsters again, staring at each page like it is a test of endurance. When Marilen had seen him reading it yesterday she had tried to take it away. Lief had only gripped it more tightly, his knuckles and face white. His only explanation: “I promised Josef,”

Jasmine lowers herself down to sit beside him, letting her bare arm brush lightly against the material of his shirt. It is as much contact as she dares. Since Josef’s funeral Lief has refused to touch anyone, or let anyone touch him. Jasmine tries not to be hurt by this. He just needs time, she tells herself. A little more time.

(But still, she wants so desperately to hold him. Instead, she holds onto the memory of the last time she felt his skin on her own- squashed together on the bed in which he had woken on his sixteenth birthday. Her arms around him, her lips are soft on his temple, his head nestled into her shoulder as he shook and sobbed, “we are alive, Jasmine… we are alive…”)

“Where is Barda?” Lief asks anxiously. The last he saw Barda the big man had been loading food cleared of contamination into Steven’s caravan. That had been several hours ago.

“He is testing food in the kitchens with Doom and Gla-Thon,” Jasmine reassures him. The first day after their return he had not let Jasmine or Barda out of his sight. Even now, three days later, he is nervous. Maybe they are not really safe. Maybe this is a trap, and they could still be taken from him. Maybe-

“Maybe we should join them?” Jasmine asks. “It is almost dinner time. And surely you are hungry,” She keeps her voice upbeat, trying not to let her worry be known. Lief needs to eat. He has barely touched his food in two days.

“No thank you,” Lief murmurs. 

Filli chatters on Jasmine’s shoulder in protest, but she is patient. “Why not, Lief?” she whispers. “I think you should,”

She thinks he should do so many things. Let the doctors put fresh bandages on his wounds. Wash the dirt and blood of the pit from underneath his fingernails. Eat. Sleep. Smile. Forgive himself.

But Lief does not respond. He flicks to another page of the book, and Thaegan’s children grin at him, taunting. It might be Jasmine’s imagination, but one of them seems to be holding an axe. The scar on her shoulder throbs.

“Did they find any more?” Lief asks. It is the final day of the search. For three days guards have been moving carefully through Del inspecting quiet houses and deserted alleys. Finding entire families with eyes still open, dead mothers clutching their sobbing and soiled babies, homeless men curled, cold, behind walls. The bodies of the forgotten now lie in the great hall of the palace, covered with blankets. If no one claims them they will be buried tonight on the palace hill, with the kings and queens of old.

“I… I do not know,” she says, but she does. Two more. A couple, lying together in their bed, just a few houses down from the forge. Barda recognised them. You would have too.

Lief’s mouth twists. “Please do not lie to me,” he says softly, turning another page. “Do you want to spare my feelings? Spare me from the burden of knowing how many have died because of me?”

It is the most Lief has said in days, and Jasmine is unable to respond for a moment. Then, because she is never good with feelings and really has no idea what else to do, she says: “None of this is your fault, Lief. No one blames you,”

Lief shakes his head. “If I had not left Del, if I had come back sooner-”

“No,” Jasmine says firmly. She reaches out instinctively and he flinches away from her touch. “No. The Shadow Lord did this. No one else,”

Lief’s body is shaking, but still he stares at the book, at the Vraal gloating on the page, at the sharp claws which scarred his arm and Doom’s face and tore apart Gla-Thon’s husband.

“I was supposed to save them,” he says, voice cracking. “That is what I am meant to do, what I have always done. But I failed, Jasmine. I cannot be what they need. I am not strong enough. I never have been,”

Jasmine looks at him, this man she loves, as scarred and traumatised as the land he rules. His hands are sunburned and shaking. His hair is straggling and matted, one patch singed off by a dragon’s fire. There is a scabbing graze on his forehead, right beside it is a blotchy scar on his hairline that not even the green moss of Dread Mountain had been able to remove. Another mottled, healing scar burns on his jawline. She wishes she could kiss it.

“You are going to be okay,” she whispers instead, to him, to herself, to all of them. It is one of the promises she repeated over and over on those long nights when the Crystal had taken his mind. And now the Crystal is gone, the Shadow Lord is gone, they are safe, and here she is, still promising.This will never really be over. This will never stop hurting, not until the day they die.

But they are together, and alive. One day they will have more joyful memories than sad. And their children will grow up happy, and safe, and never have to go through the suffering their parents have. That is enough.

Lief closes the book. “I am scared, Jasmine,” he whispers. “All I have ever known is destruction. I do not know how to be the one who rebuilds,”

“Me neither,” she admits. “But we will help each other,”

She reaches out again, and this time he lets her take his hand.

He is enough.

Ep 257 (wow its been a while since i last did liveblogs) 

oh wow the den den mushi noises i dub are cute 

Cpt. T-Bone deserved better tbh 

every time I see Cpt. T-Bone I think abt the interpretation from This Bites by Xomniac and it just makes me hate Akainu more 

i actually quite like sanji’s voice 

Paulie’s voice is p on point too actually 

ahh i think i’ve gotten used to english voices now. definitely still prefer the original japanese tho

the good ol’ “108 times 2″ scene 

but. zoro. if you’re gonna round to a number you dont normally round 216 up to 300. 

TBH my fav thing so far is how they actually muffle zoro’s voice when talking with a sword in his mouth vs how fucking clear it is in the sub

its like. hey. maybe its hard to actually understand shit when someone’s got a sword hilt in his mouth. 

-kicks luffy in the window- “whoops sorry abt that” 

the whole “if you were on that train right now and i told you robin sacrificed herself to help us” scene was grEAT

MOSS HEAD IN ENGLISH IS 👌👌👍

THE DEN DEN MUSHI’S ARE SO CUTE

the little snoring noises... i dont remember the japanese ones making those noises... i L O V E

FRANKY’S DEEPER VOICE MAKES THE “I’M NOT CRYING YOU ARE” SCENES EVEN BETTER

“See ya? There’s no place to go!” 

oh jfc fucking wanze the ramen idiot i forgot abt him

oh wow their voice choice was on point tho 

probably gonna skip that one tho i really dont like that fight 

“METALLIC STAR” IN THAT DRAMATIC VOICE

punisher liveblog thoughts corralled into one post so to be less annoying

episode 1:

lmao very pandering shot of him lounging and reading a book half-naked

oh christ he’s reading moby dick; wonder if he’s perceiving any of the central themes of self-destructive obsession (probs not: this is ep one)

his grip tightening on the sledgehammer --> nice Drive (2011) reference

you shouldn’t step on an unhinged man’s sandwich; you’re gonna likely die for that mistake.

sandwich karma restored by donnie chavez, whom i love

he can’t bring himself to go to a support group :(

NRA hat straw man character reminded me of my hometown and i shivered reflexively

oh the book was an assignment! interesting.

ball kick metaphors: quaint.

oh i don’t like sam stein.

“close the door on your way out” --> nice Hamilton (2015) reference

oh i also don’t like her boss.

sandwich destructor shall earn his comeuppance i feel it in my bones

maybe i like sam a bit more

“The Punisher? He’s dead!” i actually laughed a little

if you hurt donnie in ep one, i’ll be devastated.

the use of colors in the flashback/dream scenes = ace.

the camera sliding over from the two guys’ convo to show frank sitting nearby = also good

that hammer is a checkov’s hammer

aw donnie you sweet boy

noooo don’t get involved my sweet son

ooo so it was personal with Ahmad, Dinah’s an investigator with an axe to grind. nice adversary for frank.

now he’s reading the crack-up. nice nice.

“let’s boogaloo” wtf bad writing

donny’s hands shaking i’m cry

oh SHIT

:(

god he’s hot

the sandwich karma was a LIE

there’s strains of jesse pinkman in donnie this is so sad to me
