#roxie’s moot games

[mirxzii]

you've recieved a letter from: roxie! 💌

open?

YES NO

2023 has been like a rollercoaster for me. i had my ups, discovering kpop and seventeen, and my downs, struggling with grades and more.

scrolling through kpop and seventeen tags when i was a little baby carat, i was so nervous. i wanted to be friends with so many people here, to talk and giggle about my faves like others did. but i wasnt a writer, i wasnt even a big account.

however, my desire for friends who loved kpop and seventeen as much as me pushed past my social anxieties, and i began to talk to people here, praying they'd see my efforts, and like me.

so, i want to thank some of those writers and people who heard me, and who i love

@blue-jisungs my silly axie, youre one of my comfort friends and writers. you know just how to cheer me up, and even if you arent the best at math or chemistry, you certainly try your hardest to help me, and i love and appreciate that. id also love for you to proof read any essays i need help with for english sometime ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ your writing never misses, and i love talking with you about polish and jewish cultures. i cant wait to get closer with you in 2024, and i promise i will have that in my dreams cover when im back from japan. （╹◡╹）♡

My Girls. - OC Story

pairing: F!OC: Kathleen "Brass" Moore x John Price extra: moot OC!Camilla Price x Rodolfo Parra words: 1.9k~ cw: baby fic, parenting, parenting insecurities (from John, about not being present enough), father's day dinner, flirting, insults, banter.

June 20th, 2021.

Father's Day.

Fatherhood might just be the most exhausting mission John Price has ever had to fight.

And if Kathleen ever heard him say that out loud, she'd take one of his pistols and empty all the magazines in his skull while he's sleeping.

But that's the only explanation he has as to why he finds himself waking up at 1100 on a Sunday.

It has to be exhaustion, right? After all, he spent all afternoon yesterday running around after Charlotte in the garden, playing all sorts of games with the rambunctious girl...

And then a full hour and a half trying to get Olivia to go down, the baby too fussy due to colic because John forgot to burp her after feeding.

In his defense, it was hard to focus on burping a baby considering Roxie had sent a vase of Kathy's flying onto the flower while jumping onto the shelf, and Charlotte was running around barefoot.

John brushed his teeth and washed his face in the mirror, running water over his hair as well and rubbing it in with his hands to make him feel a bit more fresh.

Then, still yawning, he made his way down the carpeted stairs to the living room, finding the house... suspiciously quiet, though the TV was on.

Rounding the corner, he found the reason why. Sprawled on the couch laid Kathleen, still in her pajamas and a robe, her hair just barely combed out of the way into a practical ponytail.

The flatscreen TV was playing some sort of cartoon, not very loud, mostly just to fill the silence.

Olivia laid belly down on Kathy's chest, eyes closed and napping, as she tended to do as part of her late morning routine, Kathy's hand holding and rubbing her back gently;

And Charlotte was lying against Kathleen too, her head resting on mummy's chest, sucking away at her pacifier and watching TV quietly, seeming more so like she was about to fall asleep than properly awake, while Kathy played with her short brown hair.

There was something so domestic about it... so heartwarming and safe, of seeing his girls cuddling together on the couch on a lazy Sunday morning...

"Morning, Kat..." John greeted softly, keeping his voice low as he approached, gently pressing a kiss to Charlotte's head, and then one to Kathy's lips, before rubbing Olivia's little head.

"Morning..." Kathy whispered. "There's breakfast for you in the kitchen, love." She told him.

"Thank you. I'll eat in a bit." John replied.

His wife's gaze trailed the way Charlotte reached her hands for daddy, allowing him to scoop her up and bring her to snuggle against his chest as he sat by his wife, surrounded by his girls.

"Lottie, don't you have something to say to daddy, poppet?" Kathleen encouraged in a sweet tone, causing the girl to nod and pull out her pacifier.

"'appy Daddy's Day, daddy!" Charlotte cooed sleepily, her hands grabbing John's beard face before pressing a kiss to his cheek.

"Awww... thank you, poppet..." John replied and pressed a myriad of kisses to his eldest daughter's forehead. "I'm the luckiest daddy ever."

"I have tea reservations at a café..." Kathy murmured as she leaned over to whisper in John's ear, not wanting to disturb both their sleepy daughters.

"Oh, do you?" John asked with a raised brow. "Since when do you care about father's day?" He teased Kathy a bit.

"Since I think you've been doing a... not terrible job at it." She ended up saying, cocking a brow at him playfully.

"Be careful now, Mrs. Price. Going to give me an ego." He quipped, a smirk taking over his lips as she scoffed some more and rolled her eyes at him.

John didn't know how they did it. How they succeeded in both bathing both of the girls, dressing them, showering (and shaving) and putting on clothes (and make-up in Kathy's case) and making it out of the house and to the café in time for the reservation.

But they did.

For once John was wearing a button-up and slacks with boots, and had his beard properly styled...

And Kathy had been able to do her hair, put on make up and put on one of her pretty little blouses and skirts, the ones he hadn't been able to see her wear in ages.

It was unfortunate, how parenthood made it that most of the time, they lived in either their work uniforms or their other work uniforms, aka hoodies and workout pants.

John sort of missed those times when he could put on an outfit like this and take Kathy out to dinner without having to schedule and prepare weeks in advance to coordinate with family who is going to keep the girls and for how long and the routines and the naps and the food and the-

It was a conflicting feeling sometimes.

And it became more conflicting when he pondered his wife.

He left Kathy alone too often. His job was demanding and if before it was the loneliness that he worried would get to her, now, it was the stress.

Leaving her to manage a home, two children under 5, a cat, a career... He felt guilty now, whenever he had to leave.

He worried that every time he stepped on a helo, he would be returning in a body bag, and leaving Kathleen to fend for herself while dealing with the grief, and imagining how she'd have to plan a funeral, and explain death to Charlotte who wouldn't understand why daddy wasn't coming home...

"Daddy?" Kathy called out for him, since they were in front of their children, drawing his attention back to her across the table.

She had Olivia on her lap, the little one banging her small hands on the tabletop, while Charlotte sat to her mum's left and John's right, sipping from a sippy cup.

"Hm?" John beckoned as he raised his tea cup to take a sip, watching her over the rim.

"You're quiet. What're you thinking of?" She prompted.

John shook his head and smiled at her. "About how much I love my girls." He lied.

Kathleen's brow cocked up, knowing her husband too well by now to believe that. "Uh-huh." She nodded, feigning she believed him, her voice dripping sarcasm.

Then, she looked away again, grabbing her own tea cup to sip from, glancing at John with suspicion in her eyes, knowing better than to poke and prod him in a public place...

But her eyes, just as fiery as the day he met her, told him she was not going to let this go very easily.

Sitting in the garden of his parents' house, John watched Charlotte running around after their ratty old dog, Nibbles, while the old pup ran for dear life to get away from the child.

His mother, Virginia was inside preparing dinner for the family, his father Charles currently across the garden, on the phone with his sister Camilla, who had called to wish Happy Father's Day from Mexico.

"How's Lottie doing?" Kathleen murmured as she approached from behind, coming to stand beside the bench John sat at.

He raised his head and turned to look at his wife. The sun was shining on her from behind, hitting her like a halo, and bouncing off her earrings, and her bracelets and her wedding ring...

God, she was such a stunning woman, and he felt like such a knob, leaving her to raise their children alone...

"Love, you have that look in your eye again." Kathleen called his attention, causing him to snap out of his train of thought.

"Sorry." He murmured, watching as she rounded the bench and came to sit beside him. "Is Livvy okay?" He asked her.

"Out like a light." Kathy replied. "Are you okay, though?" She returned the question.

John sighed and nodded, looking toward Lottie again, watching her as she had stopped running and now sat on grandpa's lap, who let her see Aunt Camilla on the phone screen.

"I'm sorry." The Captain ended up saying as he glanced at his wife.

"Well, it's about time," Kathy joked a bit. "But just so we're on the same page, what are you apologising for?"

John scoffed a bit at her this time, but couldn't hide the little smile that formed on his lips.

"Leaving you alone all the time." He ended up saying, surprisingly sincerely. "Missing so much of their lives... Leaving you to take care of them alone... Running yourself ragged..."

Kathleen's eyes softened a bit and she sighed. "It's a part of life, John." She said as she gently patted him on the shoulder.

"It's not. Normal families get both parents in the home all the time, not the father always gone, leaving, and the mother raising the children alone." He replied as he sighed, looking away and resting his elbows on his knees, his hands hanging limp.

"Right. But we're not normal, John. You're a Special Forces operator, I'm an Army Nurse. We're not normal." She reiterated as she leaned forward too, to look him in the eyes. "It comes with being a military wife." She said with a shrug.

John groaned a bit and ran a hand over his lower face, rubbing his mouth and mutton chops with his hand in frustration.

"Besides, are you trying to imply I'm not strong enough to rear 2 daughters all by myself?" She added, her tone feigning offense, which caused John to groan in exasperation.

"Oh shut it." John groaned and rolled his eyes, feeling amused again. "I'm just worried that if I'm gone too much, they'll grow up to be like you, you evil woman." He teased.

"I hope they do. It's already bad enough they have your last name, I'll start a riot if they have your personality too." She added, enjoying the smirk that took over his lips, his mind seemingly less set on his worry about her, about them.

She knew she needed to distract him. He wouldn't in good conscience be able to continue working if he was worrying about his girls back home. It would put him in danger.

"You have my last name too, Mrs. Price. Or did you forget that?" John retorted as he leaned back to look at her, resting a fist on his thigh as he manspread a bit, losing the tension on his shoulders.

Taking his more open stance as an invitation, Kathleen shifted her weight and scooted over, leaning against him and wrapping her arms around him.

"Oh, no, I didn't forget. I was hoping that by taking it, people would start mixing it up and then one day I could just get rid of you and steal your identity." She joked a bit more.

John chuckled this time. "You're such a cunt..." He grunted under his breath as he pulled her in for a kiss, pressing his lips to hers.

"And you're a bastard..." She retorted as she returned the kiss gently and fondly.

She cupped his face after a moment and looked him in the eyes, her brown ones stern and determined, but full of love for him.

"Don't worry about us, okay?" She assured him. "We've got this. I've got this." She nodded at him. "And you're doing a good job as their father." She added.

John's brows furrowed at the reassurance from his wife, the sweetness of her words, so unlike her usual self... And he knew then she meant it, with all her heart.

So, he nodded. He pulled her close and let her rest her face against the breast of his coat, pressing his lips onto the crown of her head.

"I love you." He cooed at Kathy.

"I love you too." She replied.

Fnaf for the fandom ask game? :o

Thanks for the ask @worstmoments! I'm not super active in fnaf and have never really been in more than a like, passing obsession with certain designs and interest in lore way but I'll see what I can do!

blorbo - Bonnie, generally whatever version is the coolest looking, right now Glamrock Bonnie

scrunkly - Helpie. Babyboy coded. Also Gregory is my son.

scrimblo bimblo - I like Rockstar Bonnie a lot tbh

glup shitto - ...Shadow Bonnie FNAF 2...I'm a predictable man...

poor little meow meow - Baby, hate that Willy's daughter is the only "evil" one of his kids for no reason. I feel about Baby/Elizabeth/Elinor(in one of the short stories) that I feel about Azula Avatar

horse plinko - Monty. I've grown to appreciate him but also fuck him for replacing Bonnie. Not "I'm mad at him for replacing Bonnie in the band" I'm bad that the character of Monty meant we didn't GET a Bonnie in Security Breach until the DLC, and I feel similarly about Roxy meaning we didn't get a Foxy at all too, but fuck Monty in particular. Plinko that gator.

eeby deeby - I mean, William Afton. Canonically that bitch is in Super Hell already, it's where he belongs (sorry moots who simp for William)

Roxy darling I could kiss you you're so sweet

20. favourite things about the night?

The stars are a given. The way everything looks and how quiet it sounds when it snows at night is my favorite thing in the whole world. Oh and on the other side of the coin, if you're in the city I like how different the vibe is from the daytime, even if it's a little less safe some places!

26. fave colour and why?

Purple. I decided it when I was like 5 and never changed it. It helps that it's a scooby doo color cause I LOVE scooby doo.

30. What’s one thing that never fails to make you happy/happier?

When I see a message from my friends and moots on here! I may not always have something amazing or original to say since I get tongue tied a lot, but I'm smiling and holding my phone close at work or in my bed because of how happy I am to know so many amazing people (that includes you too ilyy)

HI ITS ME CHRONIC PAIN ANON BACK AGAIN... here's my thoughts on who of the human cast is Aware That They Have Chronic Pain Issues. srry ppl were discussing and im like, Wow, Time For Me In Hc Central

june's issues start to really develop and get bad post-game (in my headcanons), so for a long period of time she literally has no one to talk to about it bc she's self-isolating. she eventually tells nannasprite about it when nanna is guilt-tripping her into getting up (nanna voice: Whatever works, hoohoo!), and nanna is like. this is my only granddaughter. i will do whatever i can for her. (i love june & nanna's dynamic. could u tell.) jasprose also is like GIRL!!! You Are In Pain!!! nanna & jasprose team up of the century to get june egbert to Acknowledge Her Problems

dave NO clue NO idea WILL not talk about it. maybe EVENTUALLY tells karkat about it but i don't think she ever seeks out a diagnosis or tries to get one. hes got old ingrained trauma about seeing doctors, which is something he's trying to get over, but like, he already has 4 bajillion other things to unpack about his childhood and healthcare systems are not historically good about chronic pain, a dismissal of their symptoms might set them back in that regard. they're just homebrewing this shit for now.

rose: yeah, she knows. she doesn't talk about it in those terms, though. instead of saying "i have a horrible migraine and cannot get out of bed" she tells kanaya to text the gc that she's afflicted by the Broodfester Woes and cannot join them this evening. theyve sort of picked up by now what that means but she thinks it's funnier this way.

jade: HMMM. i think she put herself through her denial paces but actually i think going grimbark essentially caused her to not feel her chronic pain (a side effect of condy's semi-control over her body), and when she got shunted back into her body she had to face the reality where she DIDNT hurt all the time like wow thats how ppl normally feel? what the fuck????

jane: oh absolutely fucking not does not know. unlike jade, his pain got WORSE during crockertier. yet it still takes literally two decades for him to finally acknowledge that his stuff is NOT normal and the fact that her whole friend group has chronic pain doesn't help, which kind of sucks. jane voice: well sometimes i can get out of bed when i have a headache and rose can't, so clearly its not the same (as if jane doesn't force himself out of bed even when he really shouldnt!!!). roxy has to be the one to tell him.

roxy: yeah she knows it's chronic pain. she's been worried about getting cirrhosis for years, and so has been keeping up to date on her physical health as a result. she figured it out pretty quickly after a couple flareups. trickster mode made it worse for her.

dirk: hal has been telling him for YEARRRRRRRRS that his carpal tunnel is just that, carpal tunnel. and yet. AR: Dirk, if you do not take better care of yourself, you are never going to be capable of building me a body of my own. TT: 1. I'm fine. 2. I'm not building you a body anyways, so the point is moot. anyways he accepts it during the game bc he's like you know what. might as well admit it to myself. good thing, too, because it only gets worse after a couple decapitations.

jake: has pretty much always known, deep down, but like. she lives on an ISLAND. the hell is he going to do about it? no, better not to think about it. someday they'll be able to deal with it, but that day isn't today, and theres so much to do. so he represses it DEEPLY. normal action hero jake english doesn't have chronic pain, of course. she's a heroic manly lead, after all... (the deconstruction of that mindset sort of makes them acknowledge it, though.)

ANYWAYS I JUST RAMBLED AT YOU FOR A COUPLE HUNDRED WORDS HOPE U HAVE, A GOOD DAY/NIGHT/WHAT EVER

YYAYYY no you're so good nonnie thank u forever and ever

[tired-gay-wreck9]

Jane Crocker: she is literally the best character best-written character just listen to me

Jane Crocker is more than just a happy-go-lucky 'mom-friend'. In an internet telephone game, we've distorted her character into something that vaguely resembles her actual self. But I, the well-endowed (in more ways than one) am fully prepared to deconstruct her. i am so smat

CW: I talk about sexual assault and misogyny

summers back, ill likely be posting more too :D

Let's start out with the basics, the universal constants of Jane in every interpretation of her, the shit spoon-feed to us: in other words, the first dimension of a character. I'm talking about her appearance and traits.

She's cheery but has a short temper, loves pranks and baking, and was raised in arguably the most constructive setting. Her feet are stuck in the hardened concrete of her morals, beliefs, and view of the world.

She meets every claim with distrust until hard evidence is apparent unless the claim was something she was raised in. Ideas of time travel, the world ending and conspiracies are shot down while she embraces her role as the future Betty-Crocker heiress. Even her hobbies, baking and sleuthing, come from her dad.

She plays the support role, listening to her friends' problems and trying her best to empathize even when it hurts her.

Now that we have that base, we can build on it. Hussie chose to expand on her character in two ways: Trickster Mode and Crockertier.

Trickster Mode is ultimately self-serving; the objective is to have fun and let go. The Alpha Kids (sans Dirk) bounced off the walls in euphoria, minds reduced to love, sex, and fun. Jane tries to resist the lollipop at first but gives in. Previously, she tried to shove down her feelings for Jake but gave in once she reached Trickster Mode. Even though she's ecstatic, this is her breaking point. It's also where everything she wants comes to light. Her empathy and desire to please others are moot.

She ignores Jake's fear, uneasiness, and desire to not fuck nasty and make babies and tricksters him. All after she kicks him in the balls so hard his eyes fall off and he falls off a cliff. Her empathy, one of her most defining characteristics is gone. Don't get me wrong, tricksterization isn't an empathy-remover. It's a dopamine rush that removes any obstacles one might have in front of short-term happiness.

Jane's empathy was holding her back. One of her most positive traits is also her greatest foil. We also see some of her other character traits. Trickster mode doesn't implant desires. Trickster mode doesn't make people want things they wouldn't normally want. Roxy puts it better than I do.

"TG: sure you were trippin balls on a cherub pop TG: but that really just enabled you to do what you really wanted to do deep down "

She pushed her friends to do something they didn't want in a self-centered fuckfest. Specifically, sexual things.

One could make the argument that it was only her lack of empathy during trickster mode that caused her to do be so pushy, that it was nothing but a self-centered blunder in the same way that Jane's infamous comment on Roxy's alcoholism. One could not make this argument with Crockertier in mind.

If you need a refresher, while mind controlled by The Condesce (AKA Crockertier'd), Jane kidnapped Jake for the purpose of having babies with him (sexy sex), regardless of the fact that he's shitting himself at the idea. This wasn't her just being a cold, emotionless robot. Crockertier Jane was fully capable of feeling empathy. Her death was caused because she let her guard down while grieving Roxy. This was also a desire that cropped up multiple times. She was also Crockertier'd, AKA controlled by the Condece, an alien who lived in a culture where people hate-fucked all the time. Jane was pissed at a friend she wanted to bang. Shit happens.

Please keep in mind that while her empathy was still present in her Crockertier state, it was considerably dimmed. She had nothing against fighting her friends and killing innocents. Please also keep in mind that she still wants to do this. She has forced Jake into a sexual situation he did not want multiple times.

To sum it up, Jane's empathy is the only thing keeping her from doing shit to Jake. Her empathy is a powerful and prominent characteristic, but she still wants to "have babies" with Jake. She doesn't care that he's shitting himself at the idea. If there was an AU where Jane was not empathetic and more confident in her herself, then her other morals would not get in the way of her sexually assaulting Jake, or being an asshole. But that is not Jane. Normal-Jane cares deeply for other people and would never do what she did in Trickster Mode (FYI i have not read the epilogues and do not plan to). She would never do something like that normally but is still a dim desire.

(Also also note that you can interpret her character in whatever way you want. Throw my interpretation in that poor Chinese dude's soup or print it out and hang it on your wall. If you read this and decide that Jane is a shitty person, go the fuck ahead. If you read this and think that she's cool, do that too.)

Boom. Full understanding of her conflicting traits. Second dimension unlocked. Cowa-fucking-bunga, dudes.

But why is Jane? Why does she like baking and hot fish ladies? Why does she care so much about others' emotions? The answer is actually kinda boring.

If we compare her childhood to the other characters, it was a lot safer and kinder. She had a good relationship with her dad and never had to face any hint of insecurity about her skills or where she'd end up. She was a future CEO, for cock's sake. Even John, our patron spoiled kid, had a distant father figure who he hated.

Jane was affected by how she was raised just as much as every other character was. She likes baking and sleuthing. Her dad was a private investigator and she was the heir to a pastry company. She's hesitant to accept things that challenge her environment because her personality revolves around it.

One thing that separates her from most of the cast is that she was raised in a standard American Earth home. And she reflected the values of Earth. America says that if you're a woman you must be a mother. Jane practically mothers her friends (as best she can, not well because she is not a mother and is in fact sixteen). In trickster mode, she never said she wanted to sex her male friends up. She said that she wanted to have babies with them.

I still think her desire to get fucking and sucking significantly drove her actions and she censored them because that's not how women in America are supposed to act. Babies were, again, also a factor because of misogyny.

She's heir to a capitalist company that plans to destroy the environment for personal gain. She abstains from swearing like a conservative. She speaks like she's in the 1950s, a time when the American Dream was first introduced and was booming.

Her values work around it. Subconsciously, of course. She's not a crazy alt-right loser. She believes in the patriarchy and that women need to make babies. She puts herself down to help Jake because she believes that is her role as a woman. When Dirk is suggested to be "a homosexual" she acts defensive, like it's an insult - almost as if somewhere deep in her psyche she isn't too fond of gay people. I don't think she's even aware that she's not a good ally. Firstly, she never says that she thinks gay people are gross as if that's a core way she views the world, and a lot of biases are subconscious.

Now I think we can define the second and third dimensions of her character.

Her second dimension is being raised in a conservative environment that was still supportive (if you ignore the Betty Crocker mind control tiara). She's naive because of it. She has republican values and southern hospitality (despite being in fucking Washington) because of it.

Her second dimension is also how she grows past these traits. She grows past her naïveté and skepticism towards things that contrast with her upbringing after being thrust into SBURB, because that world isn't there anymore. She learns to put herself first, or at least somewhere up from last after she realizes that people will treat her like shit if she doesn't stop them.

Dimension three is her morals.

I've already said them, but I can also arrange them nicely.

Jane would never say things like gayness and other things like that are lesser. She would disagree shit like conversion therapy. Still, she still views being gay as something below everyone else. Not by much, but enough to be noticeable. She's probably slightly more uncomfortable with gay relationships than straight ones.

She's a capitalist. I don't need to back this one up. She would see it as immoral to be lazy.

Jane has the subconscious bias that women have to be subservient to men and have babies. She would view it as immoral for her to act towards Dirk and Jake as they act towards her, and to not have kids. Her conversations with Roxy, especially in the beginning of the comic, are much less polite. She's not rude, but she doesn't skirt around saying things that aren't positive (or she might? I've definitely forgotten some of those pesterlogs) around roxy.

She's very altruistic. She views putting others before herself as the moral thing to do. This changes over time, and is her main character development thing.

Haha and please dont use this as actual definitions of one two and three dimensional characters, im not sure what I used is the correct terminology. and please please please if you disagree abt Jane please let me know, I really want to further this discussion!!

[branmuffins22]

YES

...HOWEVER,

While Scott Pilgrim Takes Off (the netflix anime that came out like a week or so ago) is almost certainly the best version, it's unfortunately not made for first-time viewers.

The best way I can think of to describe it is as a high-effort fanfic, with top-tier professional talent behind it. A lot of the jokes and plot beats may zip by with too little explanation or fly over your head entirely if you haven't at least watched the movie first, since a lot of them are direct subversions of what's come before.

The movie is more of a spectacle than anything else, kind of a goofy action romp, and it hits most of the biggest plot points from the comic within 1hr 53mins, but a lot understandably gets dropped or changed for time or marketability. Being a movie from the early 2010s, this unfortunately means all the queer bits are played as a joke, and in Roxie's case, not even a very good joke. Unfortunate, but still not a dealbreaker by any means. When it shines, it SHINES.

The comics are a lot more substantial, but most of the references unique to it are actually exposited properly in the anime, so it's less necessary. Also, in being a series of graphic novels, it's much slower to get through and harder to come by. If you choose to read them, you'll find a very different story with the same characters (an unfortunate number of which will be a lot more shallow), as well as lot of fun batshit worldbuilding that just didn't make the cut in later iterations, but you won't really miss out on much if you don't.

Last and definitely least, there's Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World: The Game. Completely unnecessary, but it's still a pretty fun classic sidescrolling beat-em-up, especially if you (somehow) have people to play it with. Technically includes a handful of side characters seen in the anime but not the movie, although the game's hands-off approach to storytelling makes this kind of a moot point.

Comic Roxie: laughs at Scott for not getting it, then has sex with Ramona causing Scott to enter a depressive spiral

Movie Roxie: gets told Ramona being into her was just a phase

Anime Roxie: gets an extended fight scene where the narrative acknowledges her feelings as real and important and reconciles with Ramona, then makes out with the nearest hot girl and walks out of the plot on her own accord

Do not try to tell me the movie is the best scenario here

Moot I’m so sorry 😭

But to make a LONG story short

Homestuck starts with Four kids John, Rose, Dave and Jade. They play a game called Sbrub which ends the world with meteors (keep this in mind) . So they have to work together to make a new universe. Along the way they met these 12 aliens named trolls that were in the same situation as them, played the game and all.

But after a lot of chaos the kids and the trolls decide to do a “Scratch” which is basically a full universe reset.

And after the Scratch happens the new players (Jane, Roxy, Dirk and Jake) are the kids previous guardians now 16 in this universe.

Cuz the meteors from earlier carried baby versions of the guardians and the kids, but in the scratch they got mixed up which was intentional.

Then after a lot of chaos and villain fighting the kids and remaining trolls finally win the game and are able to live on their new universe in peace. (if you ignore the semi-canon epilogues lol)

Yeah it’s a lot and I’m sorry about it moot 😵‍💫😵‍💫

Homestuck is like 8000+ pages, has like three games (which aren’t important to main story dw), and an epilogue that no one really likes lmao. It’s totally fine if you don’t understand trust me, there are plenty of people who like Homestuck and haven’t finished it (me) and who did and just didn’t understand any of it.

I left out a LOT of details btw, if you want more details or if this is still confusing feel free to DM me!! ^_^

TLDR: kids play game that ends world, aliens come and help with game, they all reset universe, more kids come and then join game, they win.

unrelated to my CU posts for once but I’m just wondering if it’s not too much of a hassle for anyone to explain what homestuck is an old friend of mine really liked it and I didn’t understand shit and now one of my moots has an AU abt CU and homestuck so I’m very confused and I even tried to watch it and I STILL didn’t understand shit so um if any homestuck fans follow me PLEASE reblog with an explanation I don’t understand anything abt this thing but it sounds really cool

Game Over Review

Yeah, I want to talk about this. I feel like I need to talk about this before I can move on.

Because, even with a fucking GUN, Caliborn and John’s fight seems completely childish compared to everything else that fucking happened.

Damn this hurts. 

I wished that Kanaya finally getting revenge on Gamzee by slicing him with her chainsaw was satisfying. I wished it was. But it got hampered by the fact that KARKAT DIED! Like! WHY!? His anger wanted to get vengeance on Gamzee first, but instead it lead to his death. Being stabbed then burned to lava.

And a Life Player can only revive a person once, so unless they find another Life Player, he’s out.

Not like that matters because the currently Life Player they have now is also dead too. Jane got fucking stabbed in her sleep. By Dirk’s Sword. Jake got stabbed trying to protect Jane. By Dirk’s Sword. They had both a Heroic and Just death because of Dirk’s Weapon, who was only trying to protect them.

And Jake’s life at this point was

Become a Trickster

Died on his death bed

meet his grandma

get captured by his grandma

threatened into a force boytoy sex slave marriage with his mind-controlled friend

meet ghost spider chick who he was crushing on

who them proceed to give him a power boost against his will who took away any ability to process himself

killed by Jane

woke up to just watch a clown beat someone up

only to die trying to protect Jane

And fucking Dave got stabbed too. By Jack Noir. Like his brother. They both died in a sword-fight with Jack Noir. Only this time it’s worse because Dave was trying to protect Jade so his death was heroic.

I think the worst part about that death was that it didn’t need to happen. They didn’t need to fight. They could have been on the same side easily, but the dog’s protective instincts too over.

But Jack carrying Jade to her bed like before when she died. He didn’t even know that she was still alive, he just saw her dead body again.

Then Kanaya just got Blasted with those Sollux death-light beams. So she got obliterated and turned to ash like a vampire in sunlight.

Which lead Rose to snap and try to attack Ferrari, which that ended with her being stabbed. Just like how her Alpha-version died.

And Aranea fucking snapped by this point because she just fucking played herself. Trying to kill Jane, she kills Jake. Meaning that EVERYTHING she had done to everyone here was pointless. Moot. And I guess she hadn’t dealt with loss because her first instinct is to Destroy The Entire Planet With Another Planet! Like, THERE WERE PEOPLE THERE!! She was also going to bring in a second planet if Ferrari didn’t deflect it with the last planet.

So those two managed to just destroy every planet that the kids had.

And as Rose tried to attack so did Terezi, and look at the differences between our two antagonists. Ferrari just yeeted her trident into Rose, in a total Meenah move. But Aranea I would argue was even worse. She controlled Terezi to stab herself. That’s horrific.

And over all, the abuse that Terezi went through at this point is horrible.

attacked and destroyed by gamzee

had her cane be the one to stab/kill karkat

Got blasted away while Kanaya was stuck with the full force

So basically, she was there and present for each of the deaths of her friends, got affected by them. Try to avenge herself against Aranea, only to self-stab herself.

Roxy managed to drag Rose away, so at least those two are together once Rose revives. 

Ferrari and Aranea are now all on it, and good luck to that. I don’t care.

I mean, I care for the point of the story. But it is like villain v. villain right now. I don’t care who wins, because I want to be rooting for the heroes here.

And the only way that I can see out of this is either John or Terezi.

Terezi is the Seer of Mind. She is able to see possible paths into the future right? Well, maybe it can work in reverse. This Terezi could push her experiences/memories back into a past self. I know her computer is fucking important! I’ve been seeing it 6 times already so I know that has to come into play. This has to be it! Why else would Hussie tease us with Terezi’s laptop without actually showing us?

Or John can help out too. He is Beyond Everyone, and outside the story. He can make changes that is needed (or unneeded). And it seems like his zapping abilities is taking longer and longer to zap away. So what if he zaps to Terezi in the past in her Hive before the game and let her know what is going on. Terezi knew John’s name, I didn’t forget that. I thought it was because they all spied on the kids but it could be that John did zap himself into the past.

I’m currently favoring the Terezi route, but I am not going to rule out the John path either. I can’t afford to.

Because what the hell is going to happen now?!
