re: recent htown reblog. i'm a trombone player and i ADORE the trombone parts in hadestown. but this is SENDING me 😭💜

THAT THANG IS FUCKING LURKING OKAY!!! IT'S SINISTER. EVEN WITH THE COMPELLING DISTRACTION OF MY TWO BLORBIEST OF BLORBOS PAWING EACH OTHER UP IN THE FOREGROUND I COULD NOT OVERLOOK ITS LOOMING PRESENCE. WHAT DOES IT WANT FROM THEM. WHAT DOES IT WANT FROM US

[waitmyturtles]

THE MORNING AFTER: ONLY FRIENDS, EPISODE 1 ("MY PHONE'S STILL NOT WORKING?!") META EDITION

(Unless something changes, I'll be letting loose my Only Friends episodic meta a day late from now to October -- mommy duties call on the weekends! Saturday nights'll be for that GMMTV good-good from here on out.)

So, yesterday's episode was great. I totally enjoyed reading everyone's unhinged pleasure at the first episode yesterday, and I reblogged a whole bunch of stuff and picked up on some early theories. Jojo, Ninew, and Den were having a grand time on Twitter, and it was just a lot of fun to track (JOJO).

Before getting into the meta, just to put this on the record: my first expected and/or hoped-for clown checkpoint is a confirmed and committed throuple (NOT the missed threesome we almost got in this episode, but damn it, missed opportunity!). I understand that @respectthepetty and @shortpplfedup have separately originated a murder/manslaughter clown checkpoint (thanks, @slayerkitty, for THAT heads-up, lol) (and see below re: Mew), which tracks with Jojo's previous comparison to 3 Will Be Free -- am I HOPING for murder? Maybe I'm not HOPING for murder, but for what I'm about to muse on, maybe it won't be a surprise?

@cookie-kat777 (here) and @isaksbestpillow (here) and so many more folks out there are positing that something the fuck is UP with Mew, and I agree. I find him to the the most interesting character so far, simply because he's the only one who's not letting his actions fully tell his story -- he's almost fully in charge of his narrative, as opposed to everyone else so far (Ray, obvious pained drunk; Sand, obviously broke and tired of the BS, cc: @neuroticbookworm, etc).

My read on the kitchen scene is that Mew knew beforehand that he would stop Top in his tracks prior to letting Top in. Mew is clearly a game-player, slamming that bell during bar trivia (....... y'all, that was a HELL of a lot of drinking for bar trivia, HA), and it just struck me that there was a "win" in Mew getting Top to move towards commitment before Mew gives up his thang. I smell narcissism on the dude. Mew's not acting like a blushing maiden, quite the opposite, he knew FULL WELL what he was doing when he let Top in -- but I want to know his goal in getting Top to settle down and in first.

And moving towards faen in a week? (A WEEK?!) (UM.) For Top to bag commit to Mew -- a virgin! -- that quickly, particularly in the face of the conversation he had previously had with Boston about getting with Mew in the first place: what's Top's ultimate priority here, as well? Top's going to commit to someone he hasn't slept with yet? Color me surprised. What, to show up Boston? Is that how playas play? I dunno, we'll see. I'm not sure that Boston is a strong enough reason. Maybe there's a male-toxicity-driven shallange that's coloring this narrative, but I'll wait to find out more.

Other quick thoughts: what's the source of Ray's pain that's driving him to multiple and regular black-outs? What's Sand so tired of? (Family strife, poverty, rich kids, etc. -- what's happening there). What's up with Cheum, Mew, and Boston leaving Ray to stumble to his car alone -- especially now that it's clear that he has a pattern of blacking out and showing up to school hungover?

I don't want to project, but I'm gonna: this is a hell of a heavy drinking crew, partying QUITE hard and regularly. If Jojo's previous references to at least Gay OK Bangkok stand, I'm wondering if one overarching commentary/lesson we're going to get out of Only Friends is -- escaping to the bottle is not the best way to mitigate yours or anyone else's issues. We know he's framed shows around health issues before, GOKB and The Warp Effect as the most prominent. Let's see.

Speaking of Gay OK Bangkok, I offer another OF clown checkpoint: in my review of GOKB, I posited that Pom of GOKB and Shin of 3 Will Be Free are avatars of a very similar character style -- virgins, glasses-wearing, and unassumingly wiley in their ability to survive in a competitive world. I think Mew joins that avatar crew, but in a much more insidious fashion. Let's see. I love that Jojo is playing around with this style.

One more clown checkpoint I'm gonna put out there is that Jojo and Ninew do not let the recent Thai political turmoil escape this show. I don't know HOW it'll even work, but I have my eyes sharply peeled, because the political craziness was going down literally as they were filming the show. We'll see -- I'll likely be wrong, but ya never know.

I think that's it! I LOVE Jennie, I can't wait to see Nonnie, and Drake -- welcome back to the boys, my friend. This episode was fantastic, but by FAR the best part about yesterday was seeing the filmmakers go totally insane on social media, hyping their work and their people -- damn. When the artists KNOW what they made is good, then that's just like, it's cookies for us. Jojo and Den are out there replying to fans, and it’s just awesome. What a ride already!

re: my last reblog, here is the photographic proof i took when the edible hit…my stoner friend gave us all a 25mg dose (i do not eat edibles or smoke regularly btw) and this room, looking at this fucking unauthorized prehistoric thang. was the precise moment i got sent into the fucking stratosphere it was so so visceral and scary. we spent what felt like 10000 years walking around the natural history museum after this cause it’s kind of like endless and impossible to escape from if ur high as fuck off of really strong edibles so we had to go through every single room and i spent every single working brain cell during that 10000 years fighting for my life to keep walking and breathing and acting normal and we did all of this in complete silence cause we were all so unbelievably high. and then afterwards we had to go get pizza and we were all sat at the table like this gif 👇 again, in complete silence bc none of us had the capacity to speak the human language anymore. anyways the moral of this story is always ask ur insane stoner friends how much weed the edible has in it before they give it to you. because you could die 7,777 ego deaths in the nyc natural history museum like me if you’re not careful

[the-bagelbitch]

re: my reply, sorry I had to reblog this to show you the museum pit. there’s a stand right to the left that shows the fragments of old glass. there’s a Twitter post going around that claims the pit is contextless and as a several-time Dr Pepper Museum attendee I can promise you it is fully contextualized.

The story as I remember it:

-so this is the grounds of an old DrP bottling facility and the well dried up, they needed a place to store their broken glass and the well was just a hole now, hole + glass = perfect storage solution.

-museum takes over later, rightfully like “wtf is this big thang of glass in the ground,” excavate it.

-museum finds cool history of Dr Pepper glass bottle designs by looking at pit remains

The End.

dr pepper....save me dr pepper....

hellooo i saw this tiktok video and was wondering if you can please do this for shoto kaminari and bakugou

https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSJkeaV68/

‘i got a big fat 😳🎂’

character(s) : todoroki shouto, kaminari denki, bakugou katsuki (bnha)

legend : [Y/N = your name] they/them pronouns used, quirk not mentioned

headcanon type : fluff, crack (x reader)

note(s) : LMAO ANON YOU LITERALLY READ MY MIND?? I WAS GOING TO DO THIS EVEN WITHOUT A REQUEST— great to know that i have the same thinking process with you 🤩

»»————-　♡　————-««

todoroki shouto

noooow

you know shouto’s always willing to do tiktok challenges with you— he might be clueless when it came to social media (because of end**vor)

but! he’s gotten used to your antics most of them anyway

but he’s sort of confused when you show him a video of a couple uh.. walking?? he can’t tell what they’re doing exactly

“what,, are they doing?” is what he asked when you showed him the tiktok, brows furrowed in confusion

“they’re uh.. kekeing how do i explain it— nevermind that! just do whatever i do, shouto!”

he’s still confused as hell 🧍‍♀️ but he decides to not ask any questions, and push through with it, just by seeing the excited look on your face

and the audio 😳 i mean, it’s not,, wrong. to him, your cake is some fine ass cake :))

you lead him out of the frame, and you hit play— not giving shouto time to ‘rehearse’

it might seem to be that shouto has no reaction to the audio, but if you look closely— the corners of his lips are tugged upwards slightly

and he follows your every command, when you gesture for him to copy you.

now, shouto’s got the dance steps down, but man’s terribly stiff 😭 he also kept looking at you (specifically your ass) to see if he was doing things correctly

afterwards, the two of you take a look at the video. and, he asks you if the tiktok needs to be filmed once again by your silent reaction

but he’s appalled when he sees you literally driven to tears from pure, unfiltered laughter

you assure him with a kiss that you’re fine, and insist that the tiktok is fine as you upload it— and you cuddle with shouto for the rest of the day, letting the tiktok marinate

the next day comes by, and tiktok BLEW UP. like.. blew up, really. they should be honored that they’ve witnessed shouto strut to nicki minaj

the comments being well, absolutely hilarious. you could read through the comments again and again, and not be bored

“mann your boyfriend 😭 he’s staring too hard” “YUHH GET IT, I GUESS” “go hot couple go ‼️”

needless to say, he didn’t hear the end of the conversation when bakugou found out about the tiktok

kaminari denki

if denki had a list of tiktok challenges he desperately wanted to do at some point in his life,

this would be in the top 3, for sure

so, luck seemed to be on his side when you approached him first— wanting to rope him in on another tiktok you wanted to do with him

hopefully one that doesn’t center him as the poor unfortunate victim

“you wanna do another tiktok?” he beams when you nod, and when you show him what the prank is— he’s excited!!

you can clearly tell that it didn’t take that much convincing

the blond’s also thankful that it’s not another tiktok that needs him to ask bakugou if he can say pegasus but without the pega 💀

“alright! tell me when we can do it,”

“right now.”

so here he is, standing beside you, as you set up your phone— absolutely confident on what he’s going to do

the tiktok starts running, and denki might’ve underestimated his eagerness, when the camera captures his eager expression 💀

there was no jumpscare warning

and you didn’t even have to say ‘c’mon‼️’ for him to follow your movements. as soon as you turned your back, he started moving along with you, and the music.

he was watching your movements, and he tried copying them to the best of his sloppy, hyper and exaggerated abilities

denki was so excited about being in the tiktok, to the point he literally crashed behind you— making the both of you tumble to the floor, laughing

and the tiktok’s results are pretty much unknown to him— minus the fact that you laughed HARDER when you re-watched the tiktok

“can i see?” he asks eagerly, but you swiftly reject— shoving his head away from your screen with a hand.

he pouts when you say “the results are a surprise!” a bummer, but he chooses to trust you, and the rest of the day is spent on the floor in pure enjoyment

you upload the tiktok and slowly but surely, it attracts people’s attention

because of denki’s eagerness— he,, did a fantastic job with the walk! you can even say that he did better than you, minus the not so graceful fall

even the comments agree with you “MAN HIS CAKE IS THANGING‼️” “he did awfully well omg 💀” “oh to have this relationship’s energy 😔 when can i find a dude like that?”

and when denki finally sees the tiktok’s results, he’s left in tears from laughing— reduced into wheezes

DANK-i : BABE WHDJWKDKE THE TIKTOK YOU JUST POSTED— 😭💀💀 IM IN TEARS

safe to say, his wish has been fulfilled, and he can pass away at any given moment, satisfied.

bakugou katsuki

bakugou katsuki will never admit that he does enjoy doing tiktoks with you

plot twist : he enjoys it a lot more than he expects

but he knows where the draw the line, and the line was at the new tiktok you’ve showed to him

“no.”

“but—”

“fuck no— if you wanted to twerk infront of a camera, go ahead by all means, just don’t rope me into it.”

he does have his reasons. one— the bakusquad will make fun of him, and two— if the tiktok were to blow up,, he wouldn’t live it down.

and it always does— he knows that tiktoks do particularly well if he makes an appearance.

“if i didn’t post it, would you do it with me?”

but katsuki seemed to be fine with that. with a roll of the eyes, he sighs— looking at the tiktok once again. he gets up from his seat when the tiktok’s over

“let’s do this fucking thing.” he says with determination, even though no one was going to see the tiktok anyway or so he thinks

the tiktok’s video timer starts counting down, giving the both of you guys ample time to get into position

a smirk couldn’t be held back when you state that “i have a big phat 🎂” it’s anything but lies, and it would be the only time katsuki would smile on camera

you go forward, and you gesture for him to follow on beat— with a focused glare, katsuki starts strutting with you like no one’s business

it’s at a slow pace, and people would’ve guessed that he had a stick up his ass, sure— but damn‼️ he has those moves.

and before the video actually ends, he’s seen turning around with a glare— to see if the camera’s not filming it’s still running, and the camera captures his expression

“not bad.” he can’t help but smirk at the results, when you replay the video “i’m referring to the both of us. and, didn’t know you could move like that.”

“katsuki, your pace was like a grandfather’s—”

“shut the hell up!”

but little did katsuki know, when he wasn’t looking, you published the tiktok online, for everyone to view (basically, 3M people have seen him strut to nicki minaj)

the comments were having a blast “we’ll disregard the pace, buT DAMN‼️WHERE DID HE GET THOSE MOVES?” “LOL HIS FACE AT THE END WAS LIKE👹🤨” “y’all catch that at the beginning? woooh he’s lovesick.”

when you woke up the next morning— you can hear the boom of his quirk outside of your room, and you can practically hear his not so happy voice

fly high 😔🕊 you will be missed

Pay Back pt 2

Ez x Reader

Ez makes things a little worse before making them better

Warnings: um? Ez is a cheeky bitch? Lol, cursing, implied smut

Part One

Note: it’s short and I’m starting to realize it may not flow with part 3 so yea but it will be with the same couple just a different name since it’s not back to back but in the same AU.

Do not reuse or re post my works anywhere.

BUT do reblog,like,love and comment all that good shit if you fucking with it ☺️

@thesandbeneathmytoes hope you enjoy it!

It hadn’t been more then a few minutes after she walked out the room that her keen ears picked up on the shower turning on. She laughed to herself,

“that’s right baby take a cold one.” She said mostly to herself.

“Quién?” Carmen asked her. She looked up startled from her thoughts, to see all 8 women staring at her. She cursed under her breath knowing they wouldn’t drop it until they knew what was going on. Nosy bitches.

So like girlfriends do she filled them in on what had happened, not going to into full details about EZ well endowed ness, since 2 of the women she didn’t really know. They were friends of the birthday girl, one of her besties Deja.

“He’s gonna be so grumpy til you give him some” Shanice said laughing, “I feel bad for the guys when he goes to the yard for his shift”.

“Well that’s what he gets” you said shrugging your shoulders, and quite frankly that wasn’t even the full punishment, y’all still had to talked about it.

“Girl pleaseeeee” Deja said playfully sucking her teeth, “Yo ass gonna give in, I’ve seen photos of the man and on FaceTime a few times and ain’t no way you staying off of that”.

Now was your turn to suck your teeth as you scrunched up your face.

“Chill he alright Sis” you said lying through your teeth as all your girls started yelling and laughing calling you out on your bullshit.

“¡Basta ya!” You fussed before laughing. “Enough about me and my man that’s on punishment, let’s get this birthday brunch for my boo thang started!” You yell hyping the group up.

Everyone picked up their champagne glasses and toasted to the birthday girl.

The round table you had brought in especially for the occasion to fit all 8 women was packed with food, drinks and beautiful decorations. The whole front of your house was actually, decorated to the 9s. Pink and white everywhere. Conversations were in full swing, the noise level was definitely up there, women speaking to another across the table and such. It had been a good 40mins since Ez started the shower, there was no way he was still in there. The only times you’ve known him to stay that long is when y’all were fucking in the shower or when he took baths with you. You shook your head as you pushed the thoughts out of your mind not wanting to let yourself get excited at the table of women.

What you didn’t know was Ez had spent the rest of his shower after finding his release thinking of a way to get you back, to tease you as you did him, to match your cruelty after such a long time apart. A week was too long in Ez’s eyes. And if you wanted to play games he was all for it.

You were so engrossed in taking your selfie with Imani and Shanice, you didn’t hear bare feet lazily thud down the hallway. And you didn’t notice the chatter come to a abrupt stop at first. The silence only catching your attention as you heard your refrigerator door open and a deep sigh from you right.

A scowl graced your face as your eyes took in your shirtless boyfriend standing and drinking OJ out the carton, refrigerator door covering the lower half of his body. In the moment you remember how much you hated that refrigerator, old ass thing. You couldn’t wait for your new one to finally arrive.

One of the girls cleared their throat as they all stared in awe of the shirtless man before them with the exception of Shanice.

Ez turned slowly as if he didn’t know there was a full ass birthday brunch happening at the moment. He eyes found yours and you could see the challenge in them with a hint of lust still lingering from earlier.

“Oh ladies, my bad I didn’t remember there was a brunch party”.

All the women started to speak at once save for you and Shanice, who maybe even rolled her eyes harder then you at the women’s desperate attempt at getting Ez’s attention.

“Princesa wheres your manners?” He asked before he shut the door and strolled just a bit closer.

One of the women behind you dropped her champagne glass, the breaking glass the only thing to be heard over the gasps of the women. Even you gasped. You couldn’t believe him! Ezekiel fucking Reyes stood in front of you in a white towel hanging low on his hips. His tan body even tanner from the summer sun of south Cali. And dick print in full view. The thick long print held the gaze of all the women and Ez didn’t even try to hide the boyish grin that covered his face. Your friend Rebecca started to cough on her champagne.

“I’m Ez, the boyfriend”.

All the women stunned by the sight. He strolled just a bit closer since you were at the end and leaned down to kiss your head, his towel coming face to face with you. You bit you lip, your sure if you opened your mouth drool would just pool out. As mad as you were a big part of you was turned on.

“Pull it down” You heard whispered from someone in the group behind you, your head shot back to glare at the women, not fully sure who said it as Ezekiel chuckled.

“I’m about to head out baby, don’t wanna be the only cock in the hen house” he smirked as he turned to walk away, “Oh Feliz Cumpleaños Deja” he threw over his shoulder with a smile.

And just like that he was off into your bedroom. Your once chatty dinning room was now deathly quiet as all the women sat in shock. You knew most of them probably never even seen a man that half a divine as your, or what he was working with. The body that looked like God sculpted it with his hands taking his time along with all body parts.

“Sisssssssssss” Imani said as she looked at you with a proud face.

“I-“

“Girl your man is BLESSED, and you one lucky puta”. One of Deja’s friends said.

Lucky wasn’t a word you would use to describe how you felt in the moment. Mad, annoyed, horny were some. But you knew once you got over this you would definitely feel blessed and lucky. If Ez wanted to play this game you’d play.

But as much as you wanted to you wouldn’t go into the room it was a set up. And if you did you’d let him fuck your brains out while your girls listened.

“Who wants henny?” You asked as you got up and walked to the kitchen, desperate to focus on something else.

Another 20 mins had past when Ez walked out. Still shirtless, but this time had his white short sleeve shirt and kutte in his hand. His denims hanging low with white boxers visible and a sliver chain hanging on his belt next to a knife.

Again the women watched as you rolled your eyes while walking past him into the kitchen again. He slipped his shirt on and then his kutte before leaving against the counter to watch you angrily grab forks for the cake.

If you though Ezekiel would just leave with saying a proper goodbye to his annoyed girlfriend you were wrong.

“Babe”

There was no answer with your back still to him as you grabbed a large cutting knife. Before you could shut the draw you felt a firm hand grabbed you arm and pull you back, almost making you lose you balance in your heels, but his other hand snaked behind your back to help you stay steady. And then his mouth was on yours in another passionate kiss, it was all so fast your head was spinning. You were so caught in the kiss you didn’t care about the 8 sets of eyes on y’all getting a free show. The forks laid on the counter as you free hand went to grabbed his face and your would hand with the knife on his shoulder. You made sure it wasn’t close enough to cut but your brain wouldn’t work properly for you to actually put it down. Your moans slipped into his mouth as his large hands roamed down to your ass, slowly spreading your fat ass cheeks in your short dress. You felt a hardness near your lower belly and pushed back. Both out our breathe as you stared at each other in a daze.

Ez licked his lips before kissing you forehead again, “I’ll see you later baby” he said before working to the door. Nodding at the ladies as he passed them.

A shit eating grin graced his face as he heard one of your girls say “dammmmmmn chica you dickmitized off that biker” before the door had shut and stepped into the summer heat.

Ez sat on his bike while putting his helmet on, he had to think of something good to make up for missing last night, and he’ll prob need Shanice’s help to do it. He decided he would text her later as he started his bike before pulling out into the street.

Review of HD Spooky Specimens

Yes, after finally giving in and playing the remastered version, a few of them actually merit re-assessment. Not all of them, but some. I wasn’t going to do this but THEN someone reblogged my original so what the fuck

Specimens 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 13 all remain the same

#3 (ARACHNIPEDE yeah that’s pretty good right came up with it myself): So, first of all they fixed the “usually in the green room” bug, and now it basically always spawns, and actually comes out of the holes in the ceiling. More pressingly, the mad bastards made it EVEN BIGGER with SIGNIFICANTLY MORE LEGS and, as we’ve established, there is nothing that can’t be made scarier with more shitty little bug legs. Oh yeah, also its speed now seems to indicate it’s just had six cans of monster and a bunch of adderall and it’s about to shit its pants. Then they gave it a really good death screen! One of the only ones where you actually see the process of it killing you! Jesus christ! This thing’s perfect! Firing on all cylinders! They did it, they reached horrible perfection. This thing legitimately scares me now. I fucking hate it. Thank you for that. Previous score: 5/10. New score: 10/10.

#4: (For legal purposes we should clarify it is NOT Samara): The original remains unchanged, but in Endless Mode, which we’ll get to, they put in this new version that has a huge maw of gaping fangs and a bunch of extra arms, plus it twitches all over the damn place like it’s struggling with an epileptic disorder, or possibly Parkinson’s. This is all rather more effective than the usual form, and it has a new power with this weird static overlay effect that ends up basically blinding you before resetting with the sound of a camera, inexplicably, because the devs realized they forgot to suck Fatal Frame’s dick. It does make the chase much more tense, but it also treads that line between hectic and scary and just fucking annoying and frustrating, and occasionally drunkenly tumbles over it. Previous score: 4/10. New score: 6/10. 

#6 (Benjamin Puppetfucker): This, i think, is the only one where the changes in the new game made him significantly LESS frightening. More fair, definitely, but much less frightening. See, in the og, when he spawned, no matter where you were, he’d spawn right behind you. And if you looked at him too long he’d decide to just fucking cheat and teleport behind you. Also sometimes if you tried to hit him with the axe he’d decide to call FORCEFIELD like that obnoxious little shit on the playground we all knew and it wouldn’t take. Now he always spawns by the door and waits there like a good boy for you to calmly saunter over and split his fucking head open. Very good for working out my anger issues, but still. Previous score: 9/10. New score: 6/10.

#12 (URBAN EXPLORERS GONE WILD): Yeah, no, literally the only change they made to this guy is that they added a mechanic where when he sees you outside his mansion, a scare chord plays and he just starts fucking BOOKING it at you, like full on fucking Usain Bolt sprinting at you. Very simple tweak, but also it made me drench myself in piss. Only draw-back to scariness is he apparently has smoker’s lung and can only keep it up for like 2 seconds before he gets tired and has to take a breather. Previous score: 2/10. New score: 5/10. 

BONUS: ENDLESS MODE-

KH1 (Cop Popeye...Copeye?): Yeah, this guy is so slow and ineffective that he’s not even actually in endless mode, but I felt bad leaving him out. Kinda freaky looking? Idk. ACAB 2/10

KH2 (Body bag on loan from Arkham Asylum): He’s aiight. He’s a decent boy. I mean...the fog’s aiight. He’s pretty fast. I like that he fucks with the environment in KH, but there’s nothing really...special about him. He’s just kinda there. 4/10

KH3 (Excellent argument for abortion): So these things are viscerally extremely gross, and the sounds they make are god-awful, but they just refuse to go away, and the god-awful sounds stop being god-awful in a good way and start being god-awful in a decidedly gross way. They either block your way out of a room completely or just hang out and do nothing. Nuisance. Gross nuisance. 3/10

KH4 (The Incredible Teleporting Mummy in a Gown): Yes, I know it’s a hospital gown, shut up, i’m still technically right. Anyway, this dude’s spooky, teleports basically exactly the same way that Mr. Benjamin Puppetfucker does, but his presentation’s nice. I mean what do you want? It’s functionally the exact same monster, so same score. 6/10

KH5 (Now THAT’S what I call a Mad Cow): One of the coolest and most unique designs across any iteration of the game. I love it, especially in this with the glowing eyes and shit? Ooh, mwah, chef’s kiss. BUT....exact same issue Deer Guardian, Guardian of the Deer had. Unnnnfortunately, once you’re out of its maze, you realize that they put it in a maze because there’s really no other way it’s any kind of credible threat to your safety. Just kinda floats along. Doing its thang. It’s just vibin. 6/10. It gets one less point than Deer Guardian because it can’t even go through walls. Amateur.

KH6 (FUNNY TOPICAL REFERENCE THAT WILL AGE VERY WELL): This thing is legitimately freaky as fuck with its eyeless, grinning face and bloody fingers and weird intestine/floral designs on its dress, and the way it appears in front of exit doors is a nice change of page from the usual chase. Then it kills you and between its nonsense death screen and its name in the game files, you learn it’s a fUCKING Rebecca Black Friday joke. Well, that’s getting your score cut right the fuck in half, missy. 4.5/10 Ah shit, I just remembered that this is one of the like two monsters I legitimately dreaded running into, so FINE, terrible genesis to one side and give her an 8/10. I’m still docking her one point from the 9. I can’t let that shit go unpunished.

E1 (Whiteface. It’s literally Whiteface. You know, from Imscared.exe? Yeah that): Now when I say literally, I do mean quite literally. Like they got permission, i guess. So uh...we won’t judge based on that, i guess, since it is an official cameo. Interface screws are cool, second chance mechanic is unique and gross, I didn’t want to run into it, chase is like a bit overly long to where it starts dragging, though. Also since its supposed to be a sentient computer file that breaks the fourth wall, I get very distracted and hung up on the logistics of what the fuck it’s doing in this castle and it takes me right the fuck out of it. Let’s call it a 7/10. 

E2 (Otto the Otter (yes that is its real in-game name)): I, too, hate Five Nights at Freddy’s, and this thing is very obviously not supposed to be scary, it’s supposed to be hilarious and petty and kind of adorable. And he succeeds beautifully. I felt myself cheering for him. I almost wanted to let him kill me so he’d feel good about himself. I love you, Otto. You’re my boy. 10/10

E3 (OH GOD THAT’S NOT E.T.): I fucking love this monster. The soundtrack and interface fuckery are great, the chase mechanic is unlike anything else, it’s truly original, and it’s disturbing in a much more subtle and low-key way that this game is generally sorely lacking. I love this kid infected with an interdimensional parasitoid! At least that’s what I think it is. Hey, if you have a better explanation, I’d love to hear it, smarty pants. (10/10)

E4 (Wolfu, the Wolf Waifu): I’m so conflicted about this thing. I love its gimmick, I love that it sends you to a forest to be ripped apart by wolves, I love the shadow animals. But it’s a fucking anime girl. A FUCKING anime girl!!! I....??? Why is this creature of indeterminate age deliberately drawn to look somewhere between 13 and 16 floating after me? Why does it have catgirl trappings? Why am I suddenly stricken with the unshakable and truly dire knowledge that there is fetish porn of it somewhere? 5/10.

E5 (Lisa it’s just Lisa from P.T.): oKAY, SO. Blatant plagiarism aside (this isn’t like the Whiteface thing, it’s more like the Mermaid Puss being directly lifted out of Amnesia thing), this monster is incredibly effective. Terrifying. Horrible death screen, number one enemy I dreaded seeing. BUT her chase really is obnoxiously long, especially with the looping room number, and eventually you figure out that she doesn’t teleport while you’re looking at her, she just turns invisible to psych you out, so if you just walk backwards she can’t do shit. I’ll still give her a 9/10, but with the caveat that if I wanted to play P.T...I’d just fucking play-Oh. God damn it.

HOW I RUN MY BLOG

Eves. 25+. GMT. Been around the Tumblr block. 

SPEED :   I got private obligations like family and work that influence (and limit) my online time. However, I try not to let people wait longer than I think is reasobale, fair or corteous. Depending on these private matters, I´ll get back to drafts anywhere between a couple of hours or a week, max. Rare are the times I can really write back to back with someone like I used to but yeah, that´s life. Also, I should mention that I run more than one blog so I let my muse lead the way. 

REPLIES :   Replies... well. Let´s start off with that if I get enough to work with, I can get wordy. I love a good pace and both partners driving the plot and story along. Ain´t no fun writing two people sitting in a cofeeshop for damn two months (don´t laugh, it´s happened). I enjoy being suprprised. Don´t ever be scared of throwing a bunch of curveballs at my muse. That´s the good shit. That being said, I tend to match my partner´s word count. And yeah, their enthusiasm too.  

STARTERS :   As someone who prefers plotted threads anyway, I approach people I wanna write with directly. And hope they do the same with me. Usually, I go by “who approaches writes the starter” but I´m adaptable. If my starters go unanswered without notice, they will be deleted again after a while and my interest in writing with you dwindle. Sorry. On another note, please mind that my starters tend to get long since I´m big on setting a scene but don´t let that discourage you. 

INBOX :    I... have one? LOL but seriously, if you see a meme you like, go for it. Doesn´t matter if it´s our first interaction or the millionth. They´re great icebreakers and fantastic to develop and deepen ongoing interactions. I hunger for world/relationship building and characer growth so any chance to do that is highly encouraged. 

SELECTIVITY :   I´m extremely picky with who I follow. At the risk of sounding like a d*ck, I have certain expectations and standards that a blog must offer before I hit that button. I don´t follow for follow, I only follow people I am interested in writing with. The partners and drafts I have I try handling equally but in terms of following, this girl is a bit... critical. 

WISHLIST :   Here it is. You see something you like? Hit me up. Best thing to build a good plot in my experience is picking one thang off this list and spitballing with each other until a beautiful new plot comes to life. 

HONEST NOTE :  Hmmmm.... I think I´ve covered the basic. All in all, play nice, communicate with me and  let´s write a good story. Oh and yeah, you mighta have noticed, this is a romantic/ship happy blog. I can ship hard if I feel it (and you do too). HOWEVER. That doesn´t mean I´m opposed to non romantic or platonic interactions. Also, Idgaff about follower counts and I don´t like being seen as just a number in yours. If we are mutuals, we should write. If you just reblog memes or aesthetics off me without ever interacting (or worse, ignoring my attempts to) I´m gonna unfollow or softblock you. Period. 

Tagged: Nah, stolen from @crookedrun

Tagging: @untamed-good-ole-boy @little-earthquakes-rp @u-and-whose-army @sniffingoutdeath if you guys wanna do this. and the rest of you. All of you. Don´t forget to tag me back cuz I´m curious. 

[carolrance]

You're one of the few people on this hellsite that takes the time to make some valid points regarding "The Handmaid's Tale". It surprises me that the majority of the fandom is either focused on shipping (nothing wrong with ships, but they're DEFINITELY NOT the point of this series) or is stuck in a black/white morality circle.

Thank you so much. I have to echo the disappointment in the fandom on tumblr. And I mean, I understand that I say a lot of things most people probably don’t agree with re: THT (esp. Serena) and that’s fair, but there’s a serious lack of quality, thoughtful, (critical) discourse here. Like you say, it’s so wrapped up in shipping or circular black/white thinking. It’s not much fun to talk to people when it’s like that and that’s a shame.

Good thing I’m not hypnotised by Max Mingella’s bushy eyebrows so I haven’t fallen into that shipping trap or the Saint Nick Worship Cult. (If you don’t ship it, or if you even criticize him in any way whatsoever, you’re a persona non grata here, it seems.). I guess the benefit of shipping something that will never ever be canon is that it doesn’t take up all your attention when watching the show. ;) Cos I’m not gonna lie, I have very specific shipping preferences but since they’re so bonkers and wrong, there’s no point in watching the show only to focus on that. I also think it’s completely hypocritical to watch a show like this and focus almost entirely on the male secondary heartthrob character and his woobie feelings, denying his complicity, etc. instead of the actual issues being presented. (I’m sorry to anybody who likes Nick and doesn’t behave like this.)

There have been a few people I’ve stumbled across that are open to well-rounded, critical discussion about THT, but they’re few and far between. And there are people around that make some really excellent points that get lost in the pondscum that covers most of this site. Mostly because if you say anything outside the hive, you’re dogpiled so what’s the point really. Or straight up blocked, lol. I’ve been blocked by people I’ve literally never interacted with because I don’t agree with one of two possible things: June/Nick is the most perfect wonderful beautiful OTP to end all OTPs, and/or, Serena Joy Waterford is not 1000% evil and is actually an interesting character worth exploring (esp. in terms of the larger feminist themes). I don’t know which it is cos, like I said, I have never actually interacted with them other than reblogging a gifset? And that is essentially the state of affairs here for THT fandom.

So, after that I sort of gave up on most people here ever having anything much of interest to say. (Maybe they do tho! Maybe they just don’t bother either.) I’m just glad some people are still here with an openness to actual discussion and analysis. Few and far between sadly. I wish I knew more.

Sorry to go off on a tangent but it’s probably my least favourite aspect of THT fandom, esp here, and it frustrates me sfm cos I would LOVE to have discussions, even with people who don’t agree completely but it’s simply impossible here for the most part. I tend to learn things from people who don’t think exactly like me. If they agree I learn a lot, if they don’t, there’s still potential to learn or look at something from a different angle. But generally… It’s like yapping into the void unless you’re a rabid shipper/Nick fangirl. But I guess that’s sort of tumblr’s thang no matter what the fandom…

Also, thank you very much for sending me a message! (It’s been a long time since I got one) :D

[andy-clutterbuck]

re: my masterpost

Well blarg. I saw last night that some people had reblogged my Andy masterpost so I went through and checked everything but it seems that This Life has reached such a level of old ass obscurity that I can’t find any links to replace the 2 broken ones in my masterpost 😂😭 

So my question: Is watching This Life something people are genuinely interested in? Because if you are then I’m willing to pull my boxset out and do thangs myself.

[radical-rad1986]

Ebr commentary

Lol I rambled A LOT. Warning for LONG. I’m not sure how to post this on Tumblr so that people can respond to specific things. Or if I should post this to Slack? I miss messageboards!!

Please please reblog with commentary, don’t respond. It’s too hard to actually see responses. Thank you.

Ep 1: Is Van using an energist-arrow?? It certainly LOOKS pink and not silver. But then again people call H’s pendant red and I see pink.... Pink EVERYWHERE official...

Ep 2: Merle: “You foreigners.” (in H’s room) In the English dub she makes it sound like there’s been other foreigners that have hit on Van??? But I guess if he’s near his dragonslaying rite + crowning then he’s marriable age?? Unless M is referring to the time that the Astons visited?? But would M remember that?? Plus at that time it would have been F being the rite age... (Though assumedly she’d be protective of F too...)

Re the guymelef fight: H is already practicing her dowsing/divinity... by being overly attentive.

Ep 3: “You let two of those bumpkin samurai damage two of my Al-say-dis-units?” Gawd did that line always bother me... “Alseides units” like it’s one word. 

Pyle is named on-screen!

Gawd A do you practice in front of a mirror??

“Castle.” No that’s not a castle A.

I think we discussed the “Give me back my Escaflowne, and give me back my guymelef!” line.

Yeah sure A, traumatize the poor young man EVEN MORE.

A&D dialogue: Subtle A, reeeeal subtle.

D literally has NO IDEA what King Van Fanel looks like?? He goes right through him and focuses on H. Did... Did F hold back that information? Did Zaiback not KNOW? How does D NOT KNOW????? Like I get that H is an intrigue but D’s WHOLE GOAL is the King of Fanelia (and the guymelef Escaflowne).

MM: “Did I get the wrong room again?” Yeah bc he travels through the fort a gazillion times in his life... (Well, that does fit with my headcanon that he’s Therese’s companion and keeps up with A to satisfy Mil.)

V: “What, you’ve heard of Balgus?” WELL DUH. One of three world-famous master swordsmen.

-- We (Drk and I) discovered that there isn’t a complete Series in English. :(( Oh well. *Adds that to To Do list*  So we watched most of it in Japanese with English subs. ... We also had to deal with some weird looping weirdness too. --

Ep 4: I’ve seen D’s “Burn, burn” in Japanese written “Moreo, moreo!” (I think I spelled that wrong.) I didn’t watch the Japanese version much, ever. So I thought it was pronounced “More-ooo, more-ooo!” literally. Not the literal “More-a-oh” that I’m hearing in the subbed ep we’re limited to watching.

Ep 5: Yeah D really doesn’t know who V is. (Flashback to the Castello with V popping out of Escaflowne on the Vione.) I don’t think D truly knows who F is either... Just a Fanelian traitor, not the lost king.

H’s tarot reading: Literal foreshadowing. Its not even “shadow.” More like forelighting. XD

*D approaches Escaflowne* Me: D es el stupid-o.

Holy cow... the Crusade is MINUSCULE compared to the Vione... Like I knew that but it just now hit me...

Ep 6: Dear Mil: They both think you’re strange, so there! XD

Fabric DOES NOT rip like that. ........... LUCK.

Ep 7: Possible Naruto reference with one of the bounty hunter guymelefs??

I agree with Drk, I’m reading too much into it; but it’s still funny!

... It’s really lucky how the Asturian disguise just FLOATS right of Escaflowne instead of, y’know, GETTING CAUGHT on something.

HUH. A lot of the inconsistencies can be explained by PURE LUCK.

Ep 8: Merle “You were nearly sold off to that Meiden guy.” But... HOW DOES SHE KNOW IT WAS MEIDEN???

I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT THE PENDANT ORIGINATED FROM ATLANTIS AND THAT IT AND ESCA’S PINK HOLDER-THING WERE TOO CLOSELY RELATED FOR COINCIDENCE. Headcanon is that there’s four main pendants and four main Ispano guymelefs that were commissioned from the Ispano right at Gaea’s beginning, to be protectors of that world.

Dear V. F didn’t actually try to kill you. I know it looks that way but he didn’t. That was D.

AHAHA V you’ll ALWAYS need H’s help!!

Buncha scary floating fortresses.

Grava’s spewing lies... A totally had nothing to do with Escaflowne’s escape...

A LOT of scary floating fortresses!!!

I think I said this before with Trudy. I don’t think Allen has actually Kissed Millerna before, she’s the one doing all the kissing. My reasoning? The way she stops and is breathless in the carriage. Damn is that a kiss. (Too bad nearly all the kisses in Esca are for manipulation of some sort. :((( )

That is a DAMN LOT of energists.

I wish snake guy had been given an actual NAME.

Ep 9: Varie’s voice and name is SO PrEtTy in the JVA!

Wow. Wowow. I do not remember Varie wailing at Goau’s death?? There seems to be more obvious background noises in the HD version. 

Yes. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.

Then RUN LIKE HELL is after you; because IT IS.

Hm. H goes straight to envisioning the pendant. Isn’t it ... to early for her to know about her dowsing abilities? Or something? ....... Or is she more focusing on Where are they? and the pendant does its thang?

A river. Perfect. LUCK.

.... So is that one Ds dead? The one stuck in the molten ... filler thing.... from his guymelef? (... Actually I’m pretty sure it’s Miguel. That makes perfect sense. You can here D say “Miguel” and there IS Miguel as a prisoner later. Yeah. That’s the most logical reasoning.)

.... There’s more language in the Japanese version than I remember in the English. (Obv. But it’s still a little jarring.)

So earlier the Crusade was tiny compared to the Vione. Well now it’s MINUSCULE compared to the Freid cargo ship!!

Ep 10: AHAHAHA V is mistaken for A! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Rotfl

... But I guess that just drives home that D didn’t know who V was in the third ep??? LOOOOOOL.

Mil: On her way out “Let’s be friends.” ALSO. THE BAG returns to H.

Oh Mil. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A IS THINKING. 

V’s observation skills don’t falter do they.

.... The Zongi-sucking-Plaktu scene is horrifying in HD. O.o

No H. Not just “anybody.” (Personally I think H has some Atlantean in her.)  ... Yeah Merle. Open your big mouth.

A being a traitor is so much buull sheet. The fact that Chid and Voris fall for it for even a second is ridiculous. Like I get that they’re on edge bc they’d know that Fanelia burned. But. BUT. (I feel like Voris has to have a clue as to Chid’s true parentage too.)

Ep 11: .... I always felt like the positions of H + Plaktu and Chid + Voris should have been reversed... Why is Chid in the cage and H on the carpet? AND WHY ARE THERE BARS AT THE CEILING?? What’s going to get out??

... Huh. That must be a subtitle error. Earth is NOT the name of H’s country. Japan is. Earth is the name of the planet. But that might be a communication /understanding error on Plaktu’s part. 

.... What would have happened in the “vision realm” if Zongi HADN’T grabbed H? He wasn’t meant to die then-and-there, just that H was predicting it. Would they have “jumped” back to the real world?? *Plotbunnies rear their heads*

Poor H. Ripped from her home. Weird visions. Scary visions. Love triangles. DYING.

Chid’s ABSOLUTE JOY that his daddy is back.

Ep 12: DINOSAUR LIZARD THINGS!

Ok Pyle/Crusade Crew: At least V is helping to care for Escaflowne. And he probably didn’t have his own personal Crew to care for Escaflowne. And he damn well DOESN’T have a place to care for Escaflowne now! Rub it in why don’tcha??

WHY is little five year old Millerna IN THE CROWD?? Wouldn’t she be in the balcony like Eries and Grava are at her own wedding?? WHY? She’s FIVE and the PRINCESS OF THE COUNTRY?? I call animator error.

I ALSO call animator error on A in his Caeli uniform during the flashback. Mar’s watching his tournament that DETERMINES his possible Caeli status. So he SHOULDn’t be in that uniform. Unless we’re seeing it through Mar’s eyes and she’s daydreaming it?? (I’ll accept it as her daydream. I headcanon she’s a daydreamer.)

Ep 13: The animation of Voris striking the trigger is EXTREMELY familiar. Pretty sure V has Escaflowne doing that somewhere. Which makes sense; reusing animation for money’s sake. 

So. .... ........ HOW OLD is the Freidian castle that SOMEONE thought to put in such a boobytrap??? 

Dear Mahad... Go easy on the poor kid... Though it IS interesting that he says “Those born in Freid ... “ and “Those who rule.” 

Hold your freakin’ horses Dornkirk!

What I never understood: If Freid's religion is based on the Atlanteans. And known Gaea HATES the demon Atlanteans and Draconians. WHY is Freid as a country accepted?? They're Atlanean religion/beliefs must not be a widely-known thing. OR The "Atlantean/Draconian = DEMON" might be a mostly Fanelian thing?? (Backwards country that thinks windmills deter demons. Though there might be actual Science behind that one.)

No H. Keep your boundaries. You might have been a little hysterical but you have EVERY RIGHT.

So the wrong time to say that A’s hair is finally messed up would be Mahad’s death scene... which is also the MaMa scene that BREAKS MY HEART.

Ep 14: SEE?? Mil doesn’t even say “Draconian,” she says “He has wings!” A says “He’s a Draconian!” with NO maliciousness! 

Lol Dryden doesn’t even recognize Mil... though it has been seven-ish years. 

.... Did we talk about D’s “phone home” line?? WHAT IS IT IN THE ORIGINAL JAPANESE? Does D actually say “phone home” bc he knows SOME Earth language?? Does he say something else and the closest English translation is “phone home”?? ?????

Ep 15: The whole “my friend” scene. Just ugh. Mil’s brattiness really shines here. I’m so glad she got character growth!! There are just SO MANY reasons to love Mil. 

Ep 16: LEON. GRANDMA KANZAKI. (Except there’s no proof she’s a Kanzaki. Oh well.)

This F & NE interaction must be more for the viewers... How did NE not know F was a Sorcerer? I find that hard to believe. Though they do say something like “We haven’t seen you in a while.” But his Sorcerer-ship can’t have been that short. Or I doubt NE were away from F for THAT long.

Is it just me or does the Sorercers’ floating fortress have a Freidian feel to it?

Ep 17: (Carryover from 16) Does Folken... outright disbelieve in the (Gate to) the Mystic Valley? I never noticed that before.... Like yeah he’ll follow Dornkirk to the literal end of the earth (figuratively follow the actual man, literally past the end of the known earth). But he won’t believe in the Mystic Valley? He must have believed in the Power of Atlantis / Power Spot in Freid. He got the damn sword-key thing. .... BUT DID HE DO ANYTHING WITH IT? I mean the Vione DOES beat the Crusade to the Gate of Atlantis for crying out loud! (Was the Freidian sword-key more a symbol between Chid and F?)

NO Varie... *Sigh* Grandma is right; H needs to believe in her friends, to have faith in them. Yeah she shouldn’t wish so much... But for crying out loud... She’s been torn from home, visions, scary visions, seen WAR AND DEATH, love triangles. Give’r a break!

DUDE. Leon is killed by Zaiback while ON Asgard, RIGHT? So. SO. Zaiback had a whole MINI FLEET of SNOW-TRAVELLING vehicles there?? And PEOPLE?? That means that a large ship/floating fortress made it across that treacherous “edge of the map”!! WHAT THE WHAT??

Dear Leon... How much time has passed since you saw Grandma? Not that much I don’t think... But still... WEIRDNESS. 

Oh pillar of light... YOU TEASE.

Yeah I’m with Aerika; why didn’t Celena get mentioned in the ghost-Leon scene??? (Yeah time, etc, yadda yadda yadda.)

Waitaminute! Poor V has been fighting ghosts that WHOLE TIME? Then NE show up. :/ Yeah sure, traumatize him SOME MORE. BOOO. 

B-b-b-but... More fighting means MORE FIGHTING.

Of course, not fighting means captured and / or death...

Yeah sure Varie. That’s very loving/motherly.

Wait... ALL of Gaea’s future is determined by V’s will? Nooo... Surely not....

Ep 18: Poor Merle; left behind from her V-sama. ... Not so poor Mil; left behind from not-her A.

... Did Dornkirk actually “alter fate” and bring H, V, and A into Zaiback? If he “altered fate,” therefore ‘redirected’ them... WHAT WAS THEIR ORIGINAL DESTINATION? Their original fate? Did Dornkirk control the pillar of light? Bc later H asks F about the pillar and F is all surprised. (Though it would make logical sense that Dornkirk didn’t tell F everything.)

OR MAYBE DORNKIRK GOT FREAKIN’ LUCKY.

.... Does pre-”saved” Zaiback look Freidian to anyone else...?

There’s a “Destiny Oscillator” in one of the previous episodes. WELL HOLY HELL does “oscillation” come into play in Esca...

Aerika had a snippet of shooting down “Women-hating A” with examples. He’s chauvinistic to / as a fault, yes... But if he ACTUALLY hated women, therefore H, he wouldn’t have let her do the Tarot reading way back when. He wouldn’t have let her decide when V says “Go, we’ll leave from the roof.” He wouldn’t have let her lead / take turns leading..... Boy do I miss Aerika.

Ep 19: ... Yes Four Generals. That’s F’s DIABOLICAL plan. Has been ALL ALONG. Pfffft.

I REALLY want in on that conversation between Mil and D on that X days journey back to Asturia.

Dear H: Don’t argue with Mil’s new maturity. Yeah D prolly talked her into the early marriage bc wartime. But she’ll get over A. She never truly had him in the first place. (Headcanon) She actually grew up with D in her backyard palace. They actually KNOW each other. A little. At least the Mil&D relationship isn’t based on half-truths/lies and lack of knowledge.

ERIES. SToP. WHOSE GRAVE IS THAT?? Encia’s? Marlene’s? Celena’s? (Probably Encia’s.)

Ep 20: Paying less attention to this one as this particular episode seems to be mass MIA on YouTube... We’re suffering through a sped-up and pixelated  version. Though it’s not too bad...

I wonder what the Lovers card actually refers too.... Mil/A or Mar/A? Bc Mil/A weren't actually lovers, not really not truly. But H's visions have never been so... subtle. (The generic Wikipedia says it’s a FUTURE vision of them BECOMING lovers??? WHUT???)

Oh poor H. No girlfriend. The Tower’s prediction was always there. The wedding itself is a grand idea... Just maybe not right now, in the middle of a war. And Zaiback was going to attack either way. Mil has to take her time to learn that Dryden is the man for her.

And yeah mebe he has to leave for the both of them to figure that out.... Meh.

Ep 21:  ... Did Mil and D go change and come back to have that heart-to-heart with H? (And D got bandaged.) Bc... Yeah. Just odd. Prolly animator error. (Or not. I need to watch those scenes closer. Later.)

Ep 22: Rad is losing her attention span. My eyes are hurting from looking at the computer screen for so long. I had originally wanted to cast from the computer to the TV screen but I couldn’t immediately get the mouse and the keyboard to talk to the computer. So I’ve been at my husband’s shiny new dual-screen computer.

Dear MM: Don’t spread false rumors. *Sigh*

Merle. Drama queen Merle.

SHUDDUP ALLEN. NO BIRDCAGES. You didn’t put Natal in one!

Aaaaand the Four Generals start to realize that their Emperor isn’t actually fully about mass conquest....

Dear V: Dragons DO NOT work thata way.

... So F escaped death bc he had Atlantean blood? Bc he was a Draconian? I feel like maybe he was closer to the earth and it’s creatures bc he’s a Draconian... Not that it was Fate. So much... Bah. That’s too much Thinky Thoughts for one day.

*Waves Folken naked torso in front of Konstantya and Pethics*

Ep 23: Well yeah, like hell M WASN’T going to follow her V-sama.

Dear A: ENOUGH WITH THE BIRDCAGE CRAP.

Sewingyoukai:  (T)hey (women) don`t need Allen, just his hair care products.

Yes F; H’s power is CARING. (Sometimes too much.)

Wow A; that’s some horrible proposal.

*Waves naked Dilly torso in front of Drk-stars and Nehasy*

Nope Dry wouldn’t complain about Mil in an apron doing laundry... A WOULD. BIRDCAGE DISCUSSION ENSUES.

Silly H; trust your heart! Trust both of them (to an extent).

Interesting that the pillar of light takes away Dil and not V... But it IS the immediate point where Dil is breaking. And he IS the triggering point of V’s actual RAGE.

V and A in unison: Hitomi!

Ep 24: De ja vuuuueeee.

(Sewingyukai and I accidentally rewatched Ep1: Fateful Confession when we wanted Ep24: Fateful DECISION. LOL. Drk made fandom history and the eps were ordered by name.

Sooo... How much DID H tell Amano about her journey on Gaea?? And it makes him look bad to change subjects... But Fate/reality must go on... And yeah sewingyoukai said he’s moving away from her “nightmare.”

Also. Sewing’s contribution: What if V went through H’s things and asked about the tampons?? XDDDDDDDDDD

AH YES, THAT FATEFUL PICTURE.

I LOVE HITOMI IN STREET CLOTHES!

... That symbol above A’s fireplace must be the Schezar family crest. It’s on Scherazade’s cape (I’m 99.99% certain) and it’s on Leon’s journal. I thought it was a partially-English letter (or Atlantean!!!~~) but that doesn’t make sense either.

It just hit me. Dornkirk must have some Fate Reading Machine too... Or that’s the thing the telescope is looking at? I mean, he’d eventually realize what represents H and V and yadda blah blah etc. But it’s never really named like everything else most other Destiny Things are.

I think I’m on Ep 25 now.

*Cries* V’s maturity in sending H away. “You don’t want me to rely on your powers so I must send you away; I’m respecting your boundaries.”

Dryden leaving... eh.... Reasons yes, Reasons NO.

Well Mil, you’ll be waiting a long time for A bc Celena’s back on the scene (or will be at the end of the episode / Series. GAWD I need to go back to my fanfiction with that scene!!!)

Re: TIME JUMPING Such a headache. I tend to think [Gaea and Earth] are pretty concurrent. Because that's EASY on our poor brains. Sometimes little things like... pocket jump around? "Pocket" meaning outside of actual reality. SewingYoukai: Maybe they jump to the time they’re most needed? Time jumping happens so infrequently. (Or it might be like LOST where it's snuck in.) Bc it happens infrequently it's hard to gauge what's happening, if time jumping is actually happening at all.

JICHA.

I WANT TO KNOW HOW THEY THOUGHT OF THE ENERGIST BOMB. Headcanon is that a spy was at the dragon graveyard and saw the obvious and brought the information back and then some scientists HAULED SERIOUS HIENY to create the bomb. (Personal universe is that a certain UNKNOWN [redacted redacted] was involved.) Yeah the energist bomb has Japanese origins/roots/reference. But in-universe. I WANT TO KNOW.

Ep 26: Holdover from ep 25 ending: Action, Reaction, Reaction, Reaction, etc. Zone of Absolute Fortune. 

Ugh more fighting. Grow up men. (Let women inherit the earth.)

Sewingyoukai and I are debating the Reasons that the Crusade Crew aren’t effected... affected... whatever - by the Zone of Absolute Fortune. We’re thinking some combination of being “covered” by A/H/V’s “lucky/destiny/fate” or a combo of all three AND their past. The rest of the men on the battlefield are (probably) either actual soldiers or men drafted to fight and fed “you’re doing something good for your country and Gaea.” Whereas the Crusade Crew were forced into the military because they were criminals/thieves/etc. 

JUST TELL V YOU LOVE HIM, H. 

V is just going to misunderstand you.

No. DUH. Dornkirk.

I want to see the moments when H goes back home! To whom?? To where?? TO WHAT TIME? Clearly at some point Yukari and Amano get together. So knowing what she knows does H skip the whole “pendant is a pendulum; would you give me my very first kiss” thing?? Sewingyoukai’s very good point: H doesn’t have the pendant anymore! H literally alters the time line.

Was it a dream? Or maybe a vision? No, it really did happen.

My poor brain. My poor eyes too, looking at the screen for about 11 hours straight.

With sewingyoukai: Loving Fanel family ftw! (With Varie teaching F and leetle V how to FLY!) [Re: How does V know how to fly so well??]

MaMa!! NE & Folken! Varie and Goau!!

Mil and Er being sisterly!!!

[beetledrink]

re: that "tag the weirdest/most embarrassing fandom phase of your life" post, I didn't wanna reblog that big ass thang but I DID want you guys to know that when I was 13/14 I obsessively watched the seasonal Halloween travel channel specials that feature the top whatever scariest haunted house attractions in America, like, I would seek out every instance of them playing on tv and DVR and rewatch all of them I was already an edgy horror movie geek but for SOME REASON these stupid ass walkthroughs of corporate haunted houses were the next step of my goofy horror teen lifestyle

A Bow Of Gratitude, My Liege, Via My Proxy, The Lovely Alex.

Completely agree, well said Mac!

Thank you kindly, @impandagrl - have a pretty thang giving you a bow of appreciation for the re-blog, as compared to his, mine would leave you wanting. [Hell, I hate that outfit on him, though. Bleechhh.]

I’ve just watched Deathgasm after seeing the posts you reblogged and fuck!! Best movie I’ve seen in a while! Usually I don’t like horror comedies but this was the perfect mix of both. Definitely a new favourite.

Right?? I was like it’s so hilarious, has just the right amount Of gore, pokes fun at Metal but has a shred of truth and honestly, Brody is a cutie. I relate to the epic fantasy, glory filled top of the Mountain moment when you listen to metal lmao. I love how miss sweet thang goes from being a goodie goodie to all hardcore by the end lol. Brody is me lmao, I want to hug him lol. Honestly one I'd re-watch a few times. It’s my new fave also ♡♡
