#queue's gonna keep posting til it runs out

[eutonous]

i think, maybe, i should take a breather.

[princeminnow]

hiii realized i should tell u guys cuz u might think its interesting cuz i told some ppl in private but is not a secret, putting a cut cuz its post-covid recovery and disability stuff 🫰 just a health update

so it looks like covid hurt my brain um. physically some. like brain damage. and its gonna take a while to fix itself, at least a couple months hopefully, and i noticed that bc it hurt me cognitively ive been rarely my oldest? or at least rarely only my oldest... which is kinda scary for a couple reasons but especially cuz my neurological disability's the big reason why im high risk and is too soon to tell but getting sick mightve taken a couple years of how it was affecting me that level of not-that-bad from me cuz its progressive which means is gets worst with time (is benign tho, not dangerous just.... disabling. the symptom is the disease.) so idk if it seeming worse is just cuz im not as strong or if is sticking around. too soon to tell. thats just... reality of this kinda thing. sucks! but not world-ending, just kinda sad. but the good news is um. randomly dropping like this usully means i just wanna cuddle and play and be social, cuz my capacity drops especially halfway through the day and i get fuzzy and silly instead of there being a trigger good or bad... so is not painful waiting, just til then not feeling as grown up or even smart as much as i did a lot

shrug! it is what it is. guess im picking sudoku back up

anyway ily guys i been running on a queue (which i usually do but i usually also am more active active) but yea if u reach out to me i love to talk!! but might not be all there or at least not all big. super fluid, super super fluid. also sometimes im full big (i think) and still fuzzy so ya, just some weird stuff goin on with minnow i wanted to share to keep u in the know and also cuz i think disability and esp disabled folk that survived but got hurt by covid needs to get talked about more bc i dont want how i live and am to be moralized or used to scare able bodied ppl into behaving, is just a fact that needs compassion but not mythologizing the way ppl do

FOUR CTOMMY FINALE STREAMS AND CCLINGY LORE!?

855 notes - Posted October 6, 2022

My #1 post of 2022

Okay fuck it I'm making this post.

So, we all know the dsmp fandom, especially on twitter, has a bit of a problem with leaktwt and often lots of controversy springing from stuff obtained by kiwifarms. I'd like to talk about this, because it's been pissing me off for months and it's getting ridiculous.

Please stop trusting information like this, or at the very least be cautious with how you interact with it, take it with a large grain of salt or maybe even a handful, don't take it at fucking face value and consider to yourself: why did they obtain this information and how did they obtain it.

Especially the how, because I've noticed the amount of illegally obtained data, from information unobtainable without some form of hacking to a lot of cases of spear phishing. Spear phishing, for those who don't know, is a targeted form of phishing against a specific person; phishing is often described as trying to obtain personal or sensitive information, and here the definition is applicable as digging through years worth of information otherwise inaccessible to the average user without purposefully searching everywhere for it, specifically information from or about a specific person.

This happens a lot, we see many cases, from the people who keep doxxing ccs, to the more recent things with certain information from Steam about Wilbur being made public despite the fact it's inaccessible without some sort of digging or manipulation, and now with (I believe, idk i've not really been looking at it for obvious reasons) the whole Tubbo thing and I believe that was leaked private messages of a friend, I could be wrong there. Either way, there's been so many cases of doxxing, leaked private messages, information inaccessible on the front end of things and it's getting to a genuinely worrying point.

And this isn't because I care about content creators, but I do care about upholding data privacy. Yes, even if they've said shit in the past, please don't go digging and digging because that does fall into spear phishing, and at the end of the day it is very dubiously legal at best. This is something we're taught about in fucking cyber security courses, for even further perspective on how bad it is. Not to mention, often this information is dug up by infamous leaktwt or kiwifarms, which are pretty known for bad faith digging up of shit.

These people dig it up for clout, they dig it up for attention, they do not care who gets fucking hurt and often bringing up old shit is going to harm more people than it fucking helps. It's even worse when you try to hold someone accountable for something someone else did, especially years in the past like it's their fault.

Just, please, stop supporting this, stop circulating this shit like morning gossip, because you're not only hurting people for no good reason, it's also often spreading illegally obtained information from people who commit cybercrimes on the regular. It breaks data protection laws, it breaks someone's fucking privacy.

Content creators are people. Respect their privacy, for fuck's sake, and stop egging on leaktwt/kiwifarms, because at the end of the day you're just telling them it's perfectly fine.

And their campaign of digging things up and harming people in bad faith doesn't end at your favourite cis white boy. They will harm minorities, and they already do, just for clout and fun. Stop it while you can before it gets out of hand, and make it clear they aren't welcome, because the fandom doesn't make it clear enough.

This isn't, of course, to say you cannot be critical of information found about ccs, but please don't allow a side effect to be encouraging or inadvertently making leaktwt/kiwifarms believe it's safe for them here, and that they are supported. Be critical when your fav is found to have said awful shit in the past, give them time to clarify, but also just... be a little critical about how accurate that info is, and who is supplying it. If you find yourself thinking 'now is this really legitimately obtained?' then maybe don't spread it, because it could be fake but a lot of the time it's already been addressed and is simply spread in bad faith.

And sure, they're exposing shitty stuff right now, but what happens when they doxx someone's address for fun?

Data privacy is important, it affects everyone, and even the worst people deserve to keep it. Sure, law enforcement and courts might be able to obtain this stuff, but you're not law enforcement nor a court and you're not entitled to personal data whenever.

Disney World with The Brothers (+ Undateables)

HCs that no one asked for, i’m just self indulgent✨

Link to Undateables post

*Based on Disney World Orlando Resort*

The Brothers

Lucifer 🔥

The Mom TM

Has a fanny pack with all the tickets

Made a detailed itinerary of where each of you will go when, with whom and for how long

“Our scheduled break’s not for another 10 minutes”

Says he doesn’t need to go on the rides/ doesn’t enjoy it etc

Squealing inside at how much fun he’s actually having

“Wha - is Diavolo going on that train again?”

He literally wouldn’t even go to the parks if he didn’t enjoy it, wouldn’t see the point

“I’m busy enough as it is at home do you think I need this on top?”

This Sadist TM would force people on the rides they didn’t want to ride because It IS iN THe iTinERaRy

Would jam pack the days to get the full experience, wearing most out

But you request a rest day to which he’ll oblige

“Ugh why are we going here -“ “Because MC requested it, complain again and i’ll tear your ticket.”

Tears up when it’s the last night/ fireworks display

“MC, this was a rather fun idea. If you’d like to come again don’t hesitate to ask, i’ll take you.”

Mammon 💵

Goes against everything The Mom TM has worked in the itenerary, but is quickly stopped

Easily distracted and stops in the middle of walking to an attraction.

“Hey don’t stop in the sidewalk, genius.”

Literally bounces with excitement around the parks but blushes furiously when it’s pointed out by the brothers

“Oi quit that, I don’ know what ya talkin’ about”

Would sour real fast when having to queue, getting caught by The Mom when trying to cut the queue

“Why do we have to queue, huh? This better be worth it”

It is

Has the most expressive/funniest ride photographs

“Mammon that ride wasn’t that scary -“ “Who says i was scared, huh? I was making MC feel better about being scared...” Blush

Would push the other brothers out the way if they tried to sit with you on a ride

“But it’s my turn -“ “your turn my ass, that’s MY HUMAN”

Would sour when your attention is divided by the fireworks and him

Soon perks up when you ask to explore the park together and run around like kids at night

Is probably the most fun at this time as there’s not much queing when it gets late so he’ll grab your hand and take you everywhere

Levi 👾

Woooooooaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!

“This is like FINAL BOSS level cool! It’s almost worth being outside.”

The Vlogger TM

Literally documents anything and everything. Even when Beel’s eating a snack- makes it sound like the coolest adventure which it is

“Why are we going to THAT attraction? It’s the literal worst on all the reviews online.”

Secretly LOVES the attraction, would turn into a tomato when called out, fiercly denies it

“Y-you wanna ride with me? Uhhh ok, i guess... no no wait!”

Gets you two matching Mickey ears, along with any and all the possible merch

“In TSL, Henry went to an amusement park with all the Prince’s brothers and they had the best time and it was all Henry’s plan to help them get along and it worked, making their journey more -“ *Belphie Snores*

Looks for hidden Mickeys with you after he bought the book on them, as recommended online

*starts vlog* “Day Three and MC and I are yet to find the elusive hidden Mickeys -“

Can only really last til early afternoon before the heat/ social interaction gets too much for him and he may need to go

Recovers lightning fast when he sees you having fun with his brothers without him whilst he was taking a break

Snatches your hand to take you elsewhere, where d’you wanna go? What d’yo wanna do? Name it and he’ll do it lol Envyyy

Everyone is grateful for his vlogging by the end of the holiday, as it meant you all got to watch it back fondly when it was over

Satan 📚

Unlike Mammon, he successfully escapes The Mom and the itinerary when he wants to

However if you wanted him to stick around, he’d blush, “Alright, just for a while.”

Has a subdued smile on his face, enjoying it much more than he anticipated he would

Smiles widley at the parades, mainly because your smile was so bright as you watched

If he saw you eyeing up a giant Disney Balloon he would buy it, ignoring any protestations

Would back up any discourse over the itinerary just to mess with The Mom

“Perhaps the itinerary is not as ‘well thought out’ as you’d anticipated.”

Would begrudgingly play along with your waiting games whilst queing, secretly loving your company

Would be the one with the maps, and wouldn’t give one to Lucifer lol

Though somewhat gimmicky in his opinion, he’d deeply enjoy the Around the World showcase

Would last longer than anyone expected and would want to see the parks at night

“MC would you like to join me?”

Whilst taking your hand to explore the park’s atmosphere at night

LOVES the Haunted Mansion ride and the way you cling to his sleeve when riding with him

Asmodeus 💋

“Don’t forget to put on sunscreen! Protect your skin 💕”

Whilst Lucifer has a practical, generic fanny pack - Asmo’s is psychedelic and glittery

Packs lip balm, antibacterial gel and a mini fan

Serves all the Best Looks TM each day and takes amazing photos of everyone, with everyone

“Oh no, honey. It’s gonna be hot today you’ll want to wear something lighter like cotton or linen.”

Would whine when he starts to get sweaty around the parks

Would peck your cheek when you suggest a bathroom break to freshen up

LOVES the around the world showcase. All the people, all the culture all the music and colours!

Unsurprisingly, isn’t a fan of rollercoasters as it messes up his hair

Would buy you the cutest souvenir and gets matching bracelets with a small, sophisticated silver Mickey charm on each

Would spend lunch with you, checking on you ensuring your keeping your water up etc and feed you

Also intrigued by the parks at night but would be more interested in getting a good night’s sleep for his skin

However if you asked/wanted time in the parks at night he’d find a secluded area to watch the fireworks with an arm around your waist

Beelzebub 🍔

Would give you piggy back rides when you get tired

“When’s lunch?” “We just got here, Beel...”

Would wrap you in a bear hug if you packed snacks for him

*munch* *munch* “Do you want that? - thanks!” *munch*

Would stop at all the food stalls. Every. Single. One - “ThIS iSn’T iN ThE iTiNeRaRY”

“Here MC, try this! This looks good too, do you want one?”

Would help carry people’s belongings

Wouldn’t notice you put Mickey ears on him until he looked at the photos later

Would notice you eyeing up a parade and when you kept quiet as not to disrupt the itinerary, would speak up

If it doesnt go your way, he’ll sneak away with you “Then we’ll go see it together.” Puppy eyed smile

“Beel we gotta get in the queue or we won’t make the line in time!” “Just a second -“ *munch* *munch*

Wouldn’t mind if you wanted to ride with others, but would eventually get sour if you weren’t with him at all

Would hold your hand around the parks with one hand and eat ice cream with the other

Would put you on his shoulders so you could see the fireworks better

He LOVES the fireworks and wonders what they’d taste like “Beel, no.” “:(“

“Someone’s having fun, i’m glad!”

Carries you over one shoulder and a sleeping Belphie over the other

“I - want to come here again... with you.” Blush

Belphegor 😴

Much like Satan, Belphie would deliberately go against the Itinerary with success, and would take you and Beel with him

Would make everyone late to the park by sleeping in

If you wanted everyone to stick together, you’d convince him with a promise to let him nap on your lap later

Would say he hates being there and would actually hate being there

For the most part... what coaxes him is seeing how happy you are, and Beel being happy too

“Belphie, look how cool this ride is! Wanna go?” ‘Begrudgingly’ agrees with a smirk

Would fall asleep at lunch and would have to be slapped shaken awake

Hell would freeze over before he admitted to it... but he started to have a good time

Starts to get more involved if you hold his hand and encourage him, a small smile on his lips

LOVES Tower of Terror and any boat ride - he can fall asleep on the boat rides

He HATES the water rides but having convinced Lucifer on one under false pretences, his expression makes it worth it lol

That one Joker TM that ‘pretends’ to be asleep in any rollercoaster attraction photograph

Some times he is actually asleep in those photos, but no one knows which ones are real or fake

Doesn’t mind queues because it gives him time to chill and nap

Falls asleep on your shoulder at the fireworks

I will do the Undateables in a follow up Post! Might edit this one but have them for now because I hope they make you smile! ✨

[we-are-greaser]

Hey folks, just a quick note here,

I'll be taking a but if a hiatus of sorts for the near future. I've been running this blog nearly three years now, if memory serves, and I've always tried to keep it supplied with a good queue of content.

Thing is, you can imagine a guy gets a little burnt out by it after a while.

My love for greaser culture hasn't dulled, but I am gonna take a bit of a break from posting here a while.

I hope y'all can find it in your dead, black heart of hearts to forgive me for that!

If you'd like any of my other blogs or socials, drop a line, I'll getcha covered.

Til I come back though, stay cool, stay classy, all you cats and kittens. Take care of yourselves!

Vampire Continuation #2 (and finale)

First part here

Did I deliberately hold this back a few days for Halloween? Um… Well... You have no proof. 

There is a keep reading because this beastie is 3.3K words- that’s right I spoiled you lot and finished the whole story. If that isn’t dedication, idk what is ^^’ I made up some of the vampire things, mainly sealing the wound, but like, what I say makes sense.

Enjoy your spooky day, kids. Bop to Spooky Scary Skeletons, do the time warp, and don’t forget to brush your teeth an extra time- oh, and eat your pumpkins, please don’t waste food. There are loads of recipes and ideas online, (except my friend who is allergic. You’re excused ^^’) Use fruits your more likely to eat- like watermelons that you can cut in half, carve all the red out and just use the skin. Anything like that and animals like to eat the pumpkin guts, but you’d have to read up on that. Point is, don’t just leave it to rot.

I will also say now the dreaded November 1st is here, I have my queue readyish and I’m not posting anything extra on this page, and I won’t be doing submissions because I have the memory of a sieve that’s missing its mesh and I’ll forget.

Sidekick followed Hero and the Vampire for as long as they could, mainly focusing on the direction they were headed, thinking about what sort of hideaways were in that area. There were a few, but there was one place in particular that seemed especially likely, and that was dilapidated lighthouse, rumoured to have a tangles mass on tunnels beneath it. Tunnels that a vampire would no doubt thrive in and have plenty of space to keep their living meals. It was as good a place as any to start, but Sidekick didn't know how long they had until Hero was turned, or killed. 

They also knew they couldn't go after them without getting ready. They needed weapons, and one can of aerosol just wasn't enough. They had no idea what they were going up against.

Sidekick, still panting from their previous run, took off back toward their base to get ready. They just hoped they had enough time. They read up as much as they could on weaknesses, and tied to collect everything in the base that they could. Garlic crosses, silver, knotted ropes, a second aerosol, and they spent at least half an hour sawing at a broom, quartering it and then sharpening one edge to make a stake. It took longer than they would have liked, but it was the best weapon they felt they could get and now they had four of them. There was another thing they needed, but they could get that from a church on the way to the lighthouse.

Sidekick caught themselves and decided to telephone Vigilante, but after the second attempt, there was no answer. They couldn't wait any longer. They set off toward the church, using Hero's bicycle to make the journey faster. Sidekick was able to get to the church quickly, and they managed to salvage two bottles of water, but that was all. They would have liked more, but there wasn't exactly the time to wait for the next service. It was getting late into the night. Every second that went by might have been too late.

Sidekick had only just pocketed the two bottles when they heard a screech. They looked up overhead to see three vampires coming at them.

"Oh, crud." This meant trouble. If three had been sent after them, then how many other ones were they?!"

Sidekick snarled and started running toward the church. If they could get there, they'd be safe. Only one of the Vampires grabbed them and lifted them high into the air, holding them by their ankle. Sidekick cried out in terror at being so high, so droppable, getting further and further away from the safety of the church. They weren't even going in the direction of the lighthouse. Sidekick snarled and scrambled for a stake. With a battle cry, they forced themselves to sit up and plunged the stake into the vampire's chest.

A deafening shriek pierced through the air, forcing Sidekick to cover their ears. As the vampire began to turn to ash and descend to the ground beneath them, they dropped Sidekick. They hit the ground hard, face first, but thankfully they were low enough for nothing to be broken, although that didn't remove the pain. Sidekick would have laid still for a moment, assessed what parts of their body they could still feel but they didn't have time for that. There were still two other vampires to deal with.

The first was easy, all things considered, as it flew toward them, Sidekick took out a stake, ducked, but swung their arm out, hitting the vampire in the chest again. What they didn't realise was that as the vampire turned to ash, so did the stake. Now they only had two left. They didn't want to use them on this third vampire- not that they had the chance to. The vampire grabbed them by the shirt, dragged them closer, and exposed their neck. Sidekick punched them in the head, and wearing a silver ring made it far more effective. 

The vampire recoiled, holding its face in pain. Sidekick didn't have the time to feel sorry for it. Anger took over and the creature dived at them. A bang sounded, and the vampire dropped from the air like a shot bird. It took Sidekick a moment to realise that was exactly what had happened. They sat down for a moment, panting for breath, wincing at the pain and rubbing their chest.

"This week on 'what trouble are [Hero] and [Sidekick] hip-deep in time'?'" Vigilante said in a commentator-style voice. "In this episode, [Sidekick] tries to take on three vampires at once and almost very epically fails if it weren't for me having one last silver bullet."

"Lay off," Sidekick grumbled. "You saw my missed call?"

"Yeah, and from there I just followed the sound of you imitating a screaming little girl. Wasn't so hard. I'd say what's up, but I feel like those freaks are kinda self-explanatory."

"They took [Hero]. [Villain] is one of them, and they've bitten them," Sidekick answered.

"So... they're turned?" they asked, using their index fingers to imitate sharp canines.

"No. To start turning you also have to drink vampire's blood. To become a full vampire, they have to drink a few times. Some say it's when they have their first feed that there's no going back. I'm starting to think it's just that every vampire is different."

"Lovely," Vigilante grimaced. "Signing a contract or shaking hands not edgy enough for these guys?"

"[Vigilante], this is serious! Come on, we have to kill [Villain] before [Hero] turns. I don't know if we have days, hours, or even minutes."

"How long have you known there to be vampires here?" Vigilante asked.

"I've suspected it for a while. [Hero] wouldn't believe me."

"Ooh! Are they getting the biggest 'I told you so' in the history of I told you so's."

"Yeah, if they live that long. Here."

Sidekick rummaged through their things, giving them a bottle of water, the madly knotted rope, and a stake.

"Um... rope?"

Sidekick shrugged. "Vampires have compulsions. Counting things like seeds is one of them, the other is unpicking knots. It'll buy you some time and they're pretty defenceless when they're working."

"Interesting..." Vigilante furrowed their brow as Sidekick gave them some garlic as well.

"Well, my uniform's gonna stink."

"[Vigilante]!"

“Alright, alright. We should wait 'til daytime and attack."

"I would but we really don’t have time. If they’re underneath the lighthouse, there’s no sunlight to keep them at bay."

Vigilante sighed and let their shoulders sag. "Okay. Let’s do this, but don't expect me to be a Van Helsing all of a sudden cos you gave me a knot, a bottle of water, and a stick."

Sidekick rolled their eyes. "Well, at least I'm not doing this by myself."

The lighthouse reeked with the smell of death, which seemed like a good sign that the undead were camping out there. There was no sign of movement, not a soul. Sidekick kept a lookout for any sinister animals, bats, wolves, snakes maybe... But the air was still and crisp. Sidekick was sure if there was a mouse nestled in a tuft of grass, they'd have been able to hear its little breaths, its silent patter of its heartbeat. They could go as far as calling the place dead. 

Sidekick gestured for Vigilante to be quiet as they crept down the overgrown paths, the bristle of the dry grass seemed deafening to them. No matter how carefully Sidekick tread, there was no way to keep the noise down any further. They decided to try for speed rather than stealth in this circumstance. They had to get inside.

The two carefully opened the broken door of the lighthouse, the wooden plank that had sealed it looked torn away. They were close. Vigilante took out their bottle of holy water and took off the lid, pressing the rim of the bottle on their neck and tipping it. None spilt out, but it wet the skin. They did the same with their wrists. Sidekick looked at them with confusion, but Vigilante only shrugged. "I'd do the same." Sidekick rolled their eyes, took out their water and poured a little bit along the doorway, maybe it would stop them coming in. They looked at Vigilante's expectant expression and decided to do as they had done. It was only a few drops, and if it worked, then it was worth it.

It was quite easy to find the loose slab that led to the underground tunnels, there were hand marks, where someone had tried to resist being dragged down, followed by a thin trail of blood.

"At least they sealed the wound," Sidekick mumbled.

"How?" Vigilante whispered.

"Real blood-drinking bats have a chemical that stops wounds closing till they've drunk their fill. Vampires have the opposite since people bleed so heavily."

Vigilante mouthed 'oh'. They hadn't heard of that before but really, if a vampire was going to feed off the same person three or so times, then there had to be a way to stop the bleeding. Puncturing an artery would kill someone in less than a minute. It made sense.

The two carefully made their way down the tunnel. One thing they hadn't brought was a torch, but Sidekick used the lighter just to give a slight sense of which direction they needed to go in. The tunnel smelt worse than outside, with next to no ventilation, it was suffocating, and the odour of rotten blood and corpses was nauseating. Sidekick was just glad not to have come across any victims yet. Sidekick doubted they could stomach such a thing. Locked away in the long dark, Sidekick could hear only the faint dripping of liquid, they hoped it was water. As they walked, they kicked over tiny stalagmites. Sidekick shuddered. They looked back at Vigilante to receive a reassuring nod, and that gave them enough to keep walking.

Eventually, they came to a better-lit clearing, full of at least thirty or so vampires. Sidekick gulped and ducked into cover, Vigilante followed suit. They were far too close to the creatures to speak, but with some thin lighting from lamps scattered around the place, Sidekick knew Vigilante was hoping for some sort of idea on what to do. Sidekick reached in their pocket for the seeds. Vigilante peeked their head above the stone and gave a thumbs up. They pointed at Sidekick and then used two fingers to imitate walking, then pointed to the exit on the other side of the clearing. Sidekick took that as a 'you go on ahead'.

Sidekick grabbed a handful of poppy seeds and launched them into the air. "Hey, count those!" they exclaimed. The vampires turned and snarled, some tried to resist, but soon they all slinked over to the seeds, struggling to even see them let alone count them. Sidekick had grabbed some sunflower seeds form the kitchen too, and they threw them just to be sure they were thoroughly distracted. This was up to Vigilante to deal with, who was assessing the situation to decide how was best to kill so many vampires that studied the ground like a flock of chickens.

Sidekick tried to run across the clearing, only for a wolf to block their path. It seemed not all vampires were drawn to the impulse of seeds. Sidekick grabbed their aerosol and sent a blast of fire towards the wolf, only the wolf dived at them from an angle, only just avoiding the flame. Its claws caught on Sidekick's arm, drawing long deep wounds. They yelped in pain, and with the wolf stood squarely on Sidekick's shoulders, their thumb slipped off the lighter and the wolf bit the can, piercing the thin metal and making it useless.

The wolf tried to bite them, but Sidekick threw their head to the side and reached in their pocket. They used the hand with the ring on to try to keep the wolf back, and the other leapt into their pocket. Their fingers locked onto a clove of garlic. They shoved in the wolf's open mouth and it screeched. Scampering back, using its paw to bash the garlic out of its mouth. It took off running, whimpering and squealing. Sidekick heard them transform, and the growls and whines turned into screaming and moans.

"Go!" Vigilante exclaimed. "Here!" They tossed them the knotted rope Sidekick had given them earlier. Sidekick caught it and took off running down the passageway, clutching their injured arm. The tunnel was still barely lit but Sidekick couldn't worry about that now. Some noise had been made, and that meant the others all knew that intruders were here. There was a good chance that Villain would kill Hero just to spite them, just to make this rescue attempt an utter failure.

Sidekick kept going down the rocky passage, groping their way down, hoping they didn't bump into anything they weren't meant to. They held onto the crucifix, holding it out in front of them, just in case anything tried to get the drop on them. Their thoughts were becoming blurry, their only focus was on the unnatural threats around them, the need to stay alive, to save Hero. The idea that those things could be anywhere was making their heart rattle against their ribcage, trying to escape and run far away from it all.

When there was light coming up ahead, they knew that that was where Villain would be hiding. With a deep breath, Sidekick went closer, crucifix in one hand, and they took out the holy water for the other, pulling the cap off with their teeth. As the room came into sight, Sidekick froze. Hero crouched on the floor, alive, but looking sticky and sickly, with dried blood down their chin. They hoped with everything that had that they weren't too late.

"[Hero]?" they mumbled.

Their head shot up toward Sidekick, but their eyes were blank. "B.blood... need..."

Without warning, Hero leapt at them, and Sidekick barely managed to swat them away with the crucifix. "Hey! [Hero], focus, it's me! It's [Sidekick]. Come on, stay with me!"

Hero tried again to jump at them, and Sidekick knew they were running out of options. They held the crucifix up, using it to drive Hero into a corner. Hero hissed, pressing themselves against the walls. Sidekick poured the water on the floor, circling them, and it did seem to act as a barrier.

"I'm not going to kill you."

Sidekick heard the slightest noise behind them, and they turned just in time to see Villain lashing out at them. They hit Sidekick's arm, tossing the crucifix from their hand. Sidekick felt around desperately for what they had left. Aside from the rope, the ring and the stake, they had nothing. Nothing at all.

"Your friend hasn't fed just yet. I think it would be fitting however, for it to be your blood they feast upon."

Villain licked their fingers, where a few drops of Sidekick's blood had touched their hand. The scratch was painful, but Sidekick could work with it. They'd had far worse before, that didn't mean it was going to be easy to fight vampire that was so much stronger and faster than them.

Sidekick tossed the knot to Hero, just to make sure they stayed focused on that and not Sidekick. They snatched up the rope, trying to pick at the incredibly tight knots Sidekick had made in it. It would last long enough for the fight. Only one of them would survive, and the winner got Hero.

This was a fight they just couldn't lose.

Villain sprang at them, lashing out with their long nails, letting their teeth shine in the dim light. Sidekick punched them with their ring hand and caught Villain above the eye. The vampire hissed as blood began to drip down, a wound unable to heal due to the silver that had cut it.

"I'm warning you," Sidekick seethed.

"Oh I'm terrified," Villain said smugly. "You think you can just come in here and kill me? Destroy my empire? Ha! Mortals really are stupid."

Sidekick had an idea. A stupid, life-threatening, terrible idea, but it was an idea all the same. They needed Villain to get close. That was there only chance of being able to hit them with the stake, but if they got bitten there was every chance they'd die. They just had to get close.

Villain leapt up, clinging to the ceiling. Sidekick focused on keeping their feet as Villain crawled toward them. They took out the stake ready.

"Any more surprises?" Sidekick exclaimed. "Come on!"

Villain grinned and let themselves drop. Sidekick wasn't far enough out of range and they fell back. The stake fell out of their hands from the painful impact. Villain pounced before Sidekick could pick it back up. They held onto Sidekick's clothes as they climbed toward Sidekick's neck. Sidekick punched them but met only air. 

Villain seized hold of Sidekick's arms by below the elbows, forcing them well out the way of their neck.

"No!" Sidekick cried. "[Vigilante]!" They knew help would not come soon enough. They kicked and writhed, but Villain was too strong. 

"You tried," Villain said smugly. "You did well, but nothing comes between me and my prey."

Villain buried their face against Sidekick's neck, jaws open wide, but they let out a scree noise.

"It. it burns! How?!"

It took Sidekick a moment to be able to answer the question. The holy water they'd put on.

"Y.you like my perfume?" Sidekick said.

Villain growled and had to let go of their arms, yanking their shirt down, leaving nothing between Sidekick's pounding heart and their teeth bit a thin layer of skin.

"There's more than one place to bite someone, dearie."

Sidekick acted quickly. They reached for the stake, at first it was only their fingertip brushing against it. That became two... three- they had it!

With a scream, Sidekick plunged the stake into the vampire's heart. Villain recoiled in shock, clawing at their own chest. "N.no! No! What have you done?!"

Sidekick stood up and took a shaky breath. "Given you what you deserve. Mortals might be stupid, but we're very good at surviving."

Villain screamed as blood poured out of the wound. The fell to the floor, slowly turning to ash. Sidekick had to look away from the gruesome death. They looked at Hero, finding them unconscious in their little corner. They didn't look so weak and drained now. Sidekick covered their eyes as the scream reached an unbearable note. They dropped to their knees and waited for the noise to stop.

With a gurgle, the air became silent again. Sidekick shook where they knelt. A lot had happened that night. Too much for them to think about all at once. They hissed in pain at their arm. Something felt deeply wrong with it. Their world spun, and they collapsed on the ground. They'd won.

They opened their eyes to find Hero cradling them, and an ungodly pain in their arm. They screamed and tried to get away but Hero and Vigilante held on tight as Vigilante poured the holy water over their arm. It was a searing pain that brought tears to their eyes and snatched their breath away. That felt worse than cleaning a wound with pure alcohol.

"You're okay, buddy," Hero soothed.

"Had to clean it out. I don't know what attacked you, but that wound went a colour I really don't think it was meant to," Vigilante said. "Maybe a werewolf..."

"God, I hope not," Sidekick winced. They lay still, catching their breath.

Hero cleared their throat nervously. "Go on then... say it."

"You're an idiot," Sidekick said without missing a beat.

"And?"

"I told you so."

Vigilante clapped. "Those are the words I love to hear!"

Hero helped Sidekick to their feet, and the two had to support each other somewhat, though Sidekick felt worse off.

"So," Vigilante grinned, "anyone else in the mood for garlic bread?"

Like my stuff and want to support what I do? Then maybe consider buying me a Kofi? Ko-fi.com/morallygrey

Happy Halloween and Good Luck with NaNoWriMo!

[modernlcve]

i’m not gonna send myself asks i’ll just post these like a man :  john/naomi

big spoon/little spoon:   generally,  naomi is just needy enough 2 insist she’s the little spoon but thats also just not her Move when it comes 2 cuddling

favorite non-sexual activity:  like im blanking on an actual specific but i feel like in Generally.  john is able to get naomi to do dumb little fun things she wouldn’t usually do.  or even just make the best little mundane things,  like going to the grocery or walking a lap around the park during one of the kid’s pre-game soccer practice.

who uses all the hot water:  john.  naomi takes short lukewarm showers and that’s how you know she’s a woman in control of her life.

most trivial thing they fight over:  when naomi says she wants to be “on time” for something she really means she wants to be 20 minutes early and sometimes that schedule just does not hold up.

who does most of the cleaning:  john.  its part of the territory of being the stay-at-home parent.  naomi pitches in,  but she’s just generally around less to do so.

who controls the netflix queue:   john.  in a similar vane to the cleaning question,  she’s generally wiped enough when a time for netflix comes around that Anything john wants to turn on will be just as easy to doze off to as anything else.

who calls up the landlord when the heat’s not working:   naomi.  she has an intimidating phone voice.  it gets shit done.

who leaves their stuff around:   john,   which isn’t to say he does it a lot,  just that naomi is meticulous.

who remembers to buy the milk:  john.  every now and then the little details like that will just slip naomi’s mind.

who remembers anniversaries:   big stuff like that i think they’re both sentimental enough to keep up with.

who cooks normally?:  john.  but i feel like they’re also takeout Fiends.

how often do they fight?:  depends.  john’s been repentant for a minute now and naomi tries to cut him some slack.  i feel like big,  blowout fights aren’t common but even with a sort of walking on eggshells,  they bicker a decent amount.  that being said,  i feel like because things have been Worse,  they’re well equipped to handle those little squabble situations pretty well.  

what do they do when they’re away from each other?:  its a Touchy subject now.  naomi tries to minimize occasions that they’re separated for extended periods of time,  during which she mostly just worries.  she knows its probably not a great sign and she really is working on it.  but old habits die hard.

nicknames for each other?:   i feel like generally they’re not huge nickname/pet name people.  like on naomi’s part at least names are just fine.  there’s the standard johnny when she’s talking to the Gang and once a blue moon she’ll slip in a Loving “superstar”

who is more likely to pay for dinner?:  naomi lets john cover the tab when they go out as if it isn’t coming out of a joint account.

who made the first move?:   john. naomi’s one of those freaky people who can stick to a life plan and she had no intentions of getting involved with anyone til after she passed the bar. but sometimes u get talking to that young old man that used to live on ur floor and plans change (just barely).

who kissed who first?:   naomi.  she puts on a big show of being some very Prim and Proper gal that could make it a little intimidating to just Go for that so she went ahead and took care of that one

who remembers things?:   naomi but don’t worry she’s got john linked in on her calendar and a running to do list w/ reminders.

who cusses more?:   naomi.   they both understand that there’s a time and a place,  but ol gal’s just got a lot of pent up tension Constantly once she starts it just takes her a second to Cool It.

what would they do if the other one was hurt?:   i never know what this means like actually physically hurt or just like feelings hurt and i do a different one every time so.  sincerely,  my bad.  the latter i feel like again they’ve gotten in their fair share of actual fights and longer Conflicts before so when they hurt each other's feelings they have a decent idea of how to work their way through it.

RK’S FOURTH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS CONCLUDE

What better way to celebrate four years of Rookies than with a bit of a makeover, right? Yes, those of you that noticed the change in icon and/or that the main was private for about an hour probably guessed it. Check out our lovely new theme, courtesy of the amazing Mod Razel! Those of you that were around in December 2013 may feel a little familiarity in some of the graphics, because this theme drew inspiration from the first theme Rookies ever had. The new acceptance graphics will kick in next week, so please look forward to it! Pardon our dust as we clean everything up and apply the necessary changes to our numerous sideblogs, too. We had intentions of getting all of this finished yesterday at the end of the queue, but what can we say, sometimes high quality work takes a little bit more time!! We hope it was well worth the wait.

To conclude the celebrations of this incredible landmark, we, your staff team, wanted to share our feelings on all of this beyond just a blanket announcement-- in a little more of a personal way. We always enjoy reading all the posts from you guys when you reach an important benchmark on your characters, be it a year anniversary, a certain number of posts, or more, so this is our version of that as mods. If this compels you to embrace your feelings of nostalgia and fondness, feel free to make an OOC post to let it out. We’d love to hear what this anniversary means to you! Tag any relevant posts as #rkfourth so we can see them all. If you’re inspired to make graphics or start any other projects, too, feel free to! Now, onward with our feelings!!

bianca:

the fact i'm writing this right now is pretty surreal (especially since i forgot about it and had to do it while lying in bed ready to sleep). i was one of the last additions to the admod team and sometimes i still need to stop and think about it to remember that actually happened. i had been a member of rookies for less than a year when i was given the chance to become a mod and even if at first i wasn't sure if i was ready for the job i'm glad i took it! rookies has become something close to a second home to me and i often find myself choosing to write something instead of studying for an exam. during my time here i actually graduated from high school and got into an university which sounds crazy to me!! now debuts are happening and i can't wait to see what more this rp has in store for us. i truly do hope rookies continues going for many more years and that i can help it grow into something even better that can bring joy to whoever wants to join us (or is already part of the family)! watch out for events and see you next year, rookies!

razel:

ahhhhhh it’s already rookies fourth birthday *wipes tears* y’all grow up so fast i can’t believe we’re here four years later and rookies is still as alive and accommodating as it had began. i just want to thank the original admin team, julie and jaiden, for bringing to life a roleplay that’s both brought happiness and excitation for many of our muns. shoutout to piper for doing her absolute 100% best taking over and giving us a foundation to continue on after her leave. my fellow mod team who are literally THE BEST team y’all could ask for in running a roleplay. BUT ALSO who could forget our beautiful muns and muses we’ve seen come and go (as well as who are still here) without your participation, anticipation and love for rookies — none of this could really be possible. thank you for being so patient and hope everyone is excited for the future of rookies and the expectations of debuts in the new year! (i think we can all say this was a long time coming and i’m happy for those who have overcome this wait with us! rookies has always been my home away from home. from the very start, back in 2013, i had already known it would be hard to leave this place behind. with the countless muses i’ve created, rkqri has made a deep impression in my heart with her relationships as well as her development in the rk-verse. i honestly don’t know what i would have done without her or rookies to distract me from the stress irl had on me. it’s been my safe haven since 2013 until now and i’m happy to continue being here to see it til the very end! aghhhh i’m getting emotional but i’m super happy for rookies, it’s fourth birthday and for all the muses and muns who are still here and have made rookies their home as well. i Love ya, rookies 💓

sera:

hello, it’s your bandaid mod here! i still remember when i first joined rookies when shannen (former rkmyung) brought me over during the mgas2 season. i thought this place was amazing then (my first tumblr rp!) and i still think - despite the ups and downs i’ve felt as a member - that this place is incredible for lasting as long as it has! i’m beyond grateful to the current head mods for hiring me on within the last year because it was definitely a leap of faith on their part!! it’s even more of an honor to get to work on debut tier along with mod kyle (how y’all gonna trust me with these big tasks idk???) so i just want to say... thanks!!! to everyone for making the rookies community as fun, as stressful, and as rewarding as it is. i love it here more than i can possibly express. i’ll keep working hard as your mod from now on and as hyeri & joohyun for as long as i can! ♡

kyle:

Happy Birthday, Rookies!  As a lot of you know, I’ve been here since the first day Rookies opened, four years ago!  I’ve really enjoyed my time here and the opportunities I’ve had to bring my muses to life and to write with so many talented people over the years.  I just want to say that Rookies has been a major part of my life for a long time now and I’m very grateful for that.  

Over four years, I’ve played several characters, though probably Taeyeon is the one I’m best known for, having played her for every single day of the four years I’ve been here!  My other two current muses are Seulgi and Sejeong, and I’m quite happy with how both of them have progressed so far!   I’ve also played the actress Kim Jiwon, After School’s Lizzy, GFriend’s Yerin (who became Seulgi), APink’s Eunji, & Pristin’s Minkyung.  I’ve enjoyed writing with all of you that I’ve had the chance to and even if I haven’t, I’ve enjoyed seeing you all here over the years, building your own characters in this world we share.

We have a lot more coming up in the future of Rookies, including debuts! (Finally, I know some of you are saying, myself included lol)  I just want to say thank you for all of you that have been here, no matter how long or short of a time you’ve been here.  Rookies is an amazing rpbecause of each and every one of you that takes the courage to put your writing out there.  So really and truly, thank you for being here and sharing your lives, and your muses lives, with us.  Here’s to more fantastic times in the future!

The only advice anybody can give is, if you wanna be a writer, keep writing. And read all you can, read everything. – Stan Lee

mira:

i remember feeling both excited and super nervous while writing my app to become a mod for rookies over two years ago - those who were close to me at the time can confirm that i wrote about six different versions for it, and ended up changing to a seventh one last minute because i STILL wasn't sure of what to send! i also remember the day mama piper told me she picked me as events mod as one of the happiest days of my life; i love her and rookies more than i can explain in this tiny little message and it means the world to me to have been chosen into such an important and special role in it. i know i've been lacking in my job and i would like to take the chance to apologize to all my members for being absent. i would also like to thank everyone for letting me be here and helping me grow both as a mod and as a person. please, know this: if i haven't been around as much as i should have, it's because i now finally have the strength and courage to take care of myself properly. i have accomplished many, many things this past year, and i know that i couldn't have done it without all that i've learned while being your events mod and your head of development. rookies is a part of me that i dearly love, and i promise i won't ever give up on it. it's not everyday you get to be a staff member of a rp that shares your own birthday, after all. ♡

carly:

i really honestly can’t believe rookies has been around for four years (people have entered and graduated HIGH SCHOOL in the time rookies has been open!!) but at the same time, i can. rookies always seemed like a special rp, and once it got through the original bumps, i’m really glad nothing stopped it. i think the most unbelievable thing is that i’m here, talking about this as a mod (admin???) those of you that have been around for a while have heard the story before. i joined rookies a few days before christmas 2013, and i was so overwhelmed by everything-- back then, my health was even worse than it is now, and i had no idea that i even had lyme disease, i was just sick allll the time. i thought for sure i would end up dropping in the first two weeks. i don’t actually remember how or why i stuck around, but by february, i was really invested and attached. over time, i started reading and liking every solo and sns post anyone ever posted, and kept up with what was going on in the lives of all of the characters here (i was inspired by our now former admin piper, who did the same thing before i did!) and i’m sure that’s what got me my dash mod job at the end of 2015. in my mod app, i said “i love rookies and rookies has helped me so much in the near two years i’ve been here, so i’d love to give back even half as much as i’ve gotten from it,“ and i think that sums up why i became a mod really well. rookies has been here for me when i didn’t know what all of my health issues were, when i got my diagnosis of lyme disease, and through all of the (continuing) ups and downs of treatment for it, and i can’t honestly express enough how wonderful it’s been for me to always count on rookies to be here as a creative outlet, and something to enjoy, and to always count on you all for your support. i like to think in the two years i’ve been a mod, that i’ve done a good job of giving back some of what i’ve gotten from rookies, though i think i still have some work to do before i reach giving back half as much, because you guys are always giving a lot to me every day, too. i should probably cut myself off before this gets EVEN LONGER so all the other mods can talk too (joke’s on you carly your message is so long that it got moved to the end) but i feel really blessed to be here in this exact moment, with the exact role i’ve had. i hope that my being a mod has made rookies a bit better of a place, and that your lives have been a little brighter because of it. thank you all for talking to me about your muses, and trusting me to sort out things that bother you, for choosing to spend your time and energy here, and for helping me learn and grow into a better person every day. in good times and bad, rookies has always been some of the good for me. i love you all dearly and i’ll keep working to make rookies a place you can enjoy for an even longer time  ♡♡♡

9/8/19 8:15pm - Another Weekend Update

So! I just waited through 2 hours of queue, had some nice sush for dinner (just picked up a salmon cut from H Mart, nothing fancy lol), got ahead on my work for the night, and then the server for WoW went down so I guess it’s a sign that I should be doing an update.

I’ve had one hell of a week, actually. It’s only been 9 days but god damn do I have some story updates.  First off, my car is still beautiful. And I’m starting to sit a little pretty myself, just made it to 168.8 lbs. So I’m kinda comfortably below 170 now. :3 Finally went running for the first time since wow came out the other day so hopefully I keep that up lmao. I guess I’ve been out walking around town and dancing and shit too though.  I also got my hair dyed blonde again! I originally got it cut to look like Brad Pitt from Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, with just a little bit of highlighting, but Maya wanted me to go Full blonde again and I was about it. Checked with a bunch of people and they all said I should, and people are loving it lol.

The first night I had it done when I went to karaoke I got asked by a 40 year old woman if I was a model. As if he heard my ego inflating, this big hulking navy dudebro came up to me within 30 seconds of the compliment, got my attention, and asked “hey. I need to settle a bet. Are you a man or a woman?” Like jesus fucking christ lmao.

Anyway. Karaoke was fun, but there were a lot of birthday parties so it was kinda busy and I went off to Circa to hang out with Jacob. We hung out til like 230 talking about shit and then Jill had me over to crash and fuck. 

Hung out with Jill a bunch this week. Accidentally made her oversleep for work one night and she didn’t even care lmao. Our sex has gotten a little better, but she’s still someone I really need to work around which is frustrating.

There was one kind of cool position I wanted to remember, she was laying flat on her belly, left leg cocked off to the side splayed out at a comfortable ~right angle. Having sex with her from behind I was in like a push up position, only using my right arm so that my left could be focused on playing with her pussy. In this position you have sooo much more access to her pussy, it’s not like doggy style where you feel like you’re really kind of stretching awkwardly to get to rub her off.  Just takes a little bit more effort holding the position than doggy obviously. 

Okay so backtracking to Sunday though, holy shit lol. I spent the whole weekend playing WoW. Like I think a ton on saturday, and then I woke up early and was playing on sunday and considered not even going out to boxcar because I knew maya was out of town. But then Manu hit me up and said him, pacos, christina, and vita were going so I was like oh fuckkkk yes.  Went to boxcar, found out they were actually at a different bar, while I chugged down the full bottle of champagne I had bought I talked to this guy about smash bros, and then ran through the rain to go see them and it poured all over me lol. We drank a bit there for a bit, they tried to get a tattoo but couldn’t, we went back to boxcar, had More champagne, I ran into this girl Chelsea that dakota used to go out with at the frat parties who was kinda cute and we talked for a sec, and we’re sitting there playing some foosball when this other girl taps me from behind and says hey how are ya gives me a great big hug, we talk for a few seconds and she walks outside.

I turn to pacos and I’m like “I have no idea who the fuck that is.” So we wrap up our game and I tell him to come outside with me to investigate. Now, I had a pretty simple strategy. I went up to her and asked some basic questions like “hey, so how’ve ya been haven’t seen ya in a bit.” and then she was like “yeah I mean I’m fine haven’t really been doing anything.” and I’m like [shit that doesn’t give me anything to go off at all] so I follow up with “so where are ya living these days?” I don’t know why That’s where my immediate follow up was. Clearly I was predisposed to thinking I was just going to continue running into people from Chapel Hill all night. But she says to me “wait what? I live in Raleigh, we talked about all this like... last weekend.” and I’m like 

oh.

shit.

fuck

me.

Because now it clicked into place that the girl standing in front of me who had gone out of her way to say hi to me was none other than MJ, the girl from the party that I was talking about. I had texted her asking her to come out to karaoke and shit but she hadn’t been able to do anything. Maybe work. Maybe not interested. But she would always respond to my texts quick and then nothing would ever work out on her end. But here she was! Staring me in the face and I didn’t even recognize her lmfao. Luckily she was like “I mean we were pretty fucked up that night, it’s fine.” but goddamn I’m an idiot. I kinda like just was facepalming too hard internally to even carry out conversation after that so we split. I tried saying hi to her later when I bummed a cig but she wasn’t very responsive. I was so frustrated with myself that I had blown it so hard that I nearly made myself sick. Or maybe that was the drinking two bottles of champagne plus beer on top without having anything to eat. Who knows, really. After hanging a while at boxcar we grabbed a hotdog and ended the night at Raleigh Times to eat a little bit before splitting. So good chilling with them. Spent some time nostalgiaing with them and telling stories to Peter who had met up with us. And had a sweet waiter who convinced me to not overeat and save my diet. Lol it was a neat day. Idk. Plus I got to go to Jill’s afterward and hook up with her, so that made up a little bit for fucking things so hard with MJ.

Honestly though, despite what the quick responses would suggest, I think she’s not really interested. I mean she definitely isn’t NOW lmfao.

Mon I was supposed to hang with Melanie but she had to flake because of her mom being in town, so I hung out and played a fuckton more wow. So I got my hair done, did karaoke, went to work, played a bunch more wow, and I’m up to lvl 30. TECHNICALLY halfway but like... effectively maybe a quarter? tops?

So this weekend was Hopscotch. Krey. AND it was the weekend that hurrican Fish$ came through. So Thursday just in case shit hit the fan work pushed all my patients to weds/fri and cancelled. Fucking sick.

 I got to see my karaoke bartender Tyrone play with his band The Black Surfers that afternoon, went to another band called Illuminati Hotties and they were super cute. Was feeling pretty beat so I went home to nap and play melee and chill for a sec. Met up with Dar to have dinner with her and her friends since they were evac’d from southport. Then for the first time I got to go to Night Rider for karaoke, which I had been recommended like a dozen times but haven’t been able to go since it’s on thursdays. 

It. Was. Incredible. Oh my god the vibe is like Emo Karaoke+. Like all the same crowd of non-normies that would go to emo karaoke and all the hype of people screaming for you, but none of the tackiness and forced playlist and overcrowdedness that comes with it. Not that I hate any of that about Emo Karaoke, I love it to death, but it’s amazing for that to happen more naturally.  I was expecting to just go and hang out alone and do a few songs, but my new buddy Matt actually recognized me from emo karaoke when I was walking in. I stopped to talk to him and his buddies steph and brie, and ended up hanging out with them the rest of the night. These two other girls Terri and Que (I think), and this guy Pharaoh also chatted with us and it was hilarious. We were talking about weird sex shit and furries and porn and all sorts of weirdness. Terri asked me and Pharaoh if we were on Fetlife, which made me amazingly happy and no longer embarrassed that I made an account on there about a year and a half ago. She told me that I really needed to try to go to this Fetish Night at Legends, which I had actually seen a post about but wasn’t sure if I’d ever do it because it happens once a month on wednesdays. But after she told me that I got her number and then shot my coworker a text to switch days so I’d work sunday and not wednesday (which is why I’m in right now).  Terri’s this beautiful short black girl with bright shiny purple hair. It’s totally gorgeous. We’ve been texting the past couple days about weird kink shit. I’m really excited to see her there on wednesday. I bought a pair of supreme cheetah print boxers to match the shirts I have, gonna cut a hole out to stick my tail out through and go in just that and ears. It should look incredible. Especially with my new hair being dirty blonde to match the cheetah print. MMMmmm i just hope everything comes in the mail on time.

Anyway, so I had a blast. They were amazed that I was 27 (most of them were 21, matt’s like 32), and I was told “I hope if I grow up to be your age I look as beautiful as you do.” mmm so kind. Actually it’s like the first time I’ve heard that and not that I was babyfaced or that i’ll look good when I’m old so I’lllll take it. Also everyone loves my hair.

AND since I was with my emo karaoke buddy and everyone was seeming like they were into a pop-punk vibe, I did some Blink182 and MCR. Finally busted out I’m Not Okay after practicing it for forever, and I fucking KILLLLLLED it. People cheered the fuck out of me afterward. I felt like I really needed to impress the gang I was with (especially Terri) so hopefully it worked lolol.

Went to Jill’s at 1am, I’m so fucking glad she’s down to chill at night after I’m done doing shit for the evening. It’s really the most low key fwb thing I’ve ever had in my life I think. So cool. Actually she made me wait to bake these brownies when I got there so I passed out lmfao. But we had sex twice on 9/6, my third favorite day of the year so nice lol. (the first being my birthday, and the second being 6/9 lol.)

Saturday I got off work, played wow at home a while, went to hopscotch at like 2. Got to see my karaoke dj Sam’s band play, he was stoked that I made it out. Hung out with brandon going around town for the day. Saturday the main event was chk chk chk, phantogram, and chvrches and I fucking died it was so good. chk chk chk was inspiring, the dude was mooooving despite being a pot bellied 46 y.o. lmao I loved him. Phantogram was gorgeous and had the best underboob I’d ever seen in my life. Chvrches played mostly new stuff and only a few of their hits, but I love them to death so it was still wonderful. And the best part was that me being me I wiggled me and brandon all the way to the front row of the show, we were dead fucking center, practically against the rails. Technically there was one person in front of me but holy shit it was fucking lit. The bass for chvrches was so loud it practically destroyed my ear drums lmao. Gotta get earplugs for next time.

and despite it being 11, that was practically just the beginning of the night lol. Brandon and I met up with Sam for this last concert, but I was pretty drunk and totally exhausted. It was in an indoor amphitheater so as soon as I got my ass in a chair I passed the fuck out for the whole show. They tell me it was incredible. Idk. The sleep was perfect.

Then we started to go to after parties. Brandon and I got a hot dog to sustain ourselves a little and walked over to this place Five somethingorothers and saw the guy from Sylvan Esso playing some club music, but decided it wasn’t our vibe. He decided to go home, and I ran off to meet up with Sam. We went to slims and I met this girl taylor, we talked about flowers or something, and then a big group of us went to this Ruby after party at a big warehouse building that they had rigged up with music equipment and had a fuckton of kegs to supply drinking for the night. I danced and drank til like 6am it was pretty righteous. Well drank til like 5, until the alcohol ran out. We also ‘broke’ into this dilapidated building to the right (it was open) and gave ourselves a little tour lmao.   And it seemed like EVERYBODY that I’ve met the past couple months out at bars and stuff were there. It was so much fun seeing everyone. Alex was there, too, and MJ even showed up at 4am! This time I actually remembered her and said hi first so that was good lmao. She gave me some tequila from a flask but we didn’t really talk much. She was mostly chatting with other guys so I guess she’sssss not really into me. Shame. But whatever so it goes. I’ll just stop hitting her up and see if we keep bumping into each other enough to do something one day, probably the best call. But what was excellent was getting to hang out with Sam and his girlfriend Taylor so much last night. It was so excellent

Now Terri and I, I hope that turns into something weird and beautiful. She just told me she’s into pegging and all sorts of lewd stuff I’m so excited.

This wednesday should be a blast. Idt I have much coming up other than Chris’s wedding in a couple weeks though.

Oh yeah I managed to buy two of my 3 supreme things! I got the jacket and the shirt, just need to get the matching hat and I think I might be done with blowing money on clothes lmfaooo. I guess I need to get khakis for the wedding, and maybe a new pair of shorts or two but that won’t be too much. It feels so nice throwing money around on cool shit and going out drinking and shows and good times lmao. Life is so fucking good right now. 

Hope everything keeps staying as interesting, I’ll keep ya posted.
