hey in ur peri animatic: (https://youtu.be/OCqlRuDaXYU?si=K52WDu_vw9rg7chz) that I have been permanently obsessed over since today and have watched about 20 times by now so much that I have drawn & posted stuff based on it what was that partial bug form peri had?
I haven’t watched either of the show btw so if it’s explained in the show please tell me plsssss
OK, SO the bug thing is not technically canon to the series. It's based on my own headcanons for fairy biology, but i do have justifications for it!! Fairies have very strong shape-shifting abilities, so it would make sense that the form they show to humans isn't necessarily their true form(not to mention extreme that mimicry is very common in insects). And you want to know the visible traits almost every fairy has in common? Being very small with Insect-like wings.
The fact that their humanoid form isn't their true form in actually confirmed in the show! Cosmo and Wanda are revealed to look like biblically accurate pseudo-angels in the museum episode. (I say pseudo angels because the Flaming Sword of Eden is only debatably sentient and I don't think is considered an angel. Ophanim are also debatably not angels because they don't have wings (sorry for the angel tangent I like angels))
So wouldn't their true forms be angelic then? Well, yes. But I like bugs so. Also I have more headcanons to justify myself. I like to think that they have both a true-true form (incomprehensible to the human brain, probably exists mostly in a dimension invisible to us, that looks how we imagine biblically accurate angels), and a fairy form (which is visible to humans but is naturally very insect like and tends to scare people). So, in order to interact with humans, they have to learn to shapeshift into a humanoid form but will occasionally slip if they get too relaxed/aren't careful, hence the mandibles coming out when he yawns!
The reason they struggle so much more with human forms than the animals or objects they typically turn into is that, well, they aren't trying to convince those animals or objects. The more human they try to look, the harder it is to keep up convincingly. If you turn into a really uncanny squirrel, only other squirrels will notice. If you turn into a really uncanny human, they form a lynch mob and burn you at the stake.
#fop#fairly oddparents#fairly oddparents a new wish#fop a new wish#headcanons#ok I think I said everything I wanted to#my brain has so many useless thoughts bouncing around in there#their bright colors would also imply that they are poisonous to eat#my personal theory is that Jorgen is half human idk how else to explain whatever he is. tall. no wings. that or he's something else entirel#maybe he's a higher rank of angel#fairies are definitely a type of angel in this world#but they don't seem to line up with any specific rank as far as I can tell#they behave most like I'd expect a Guardian angel to which could make Jorgen an Archangel or Principality#but Ophanims are in the first sphere of heaven which. uh I don't think it's right#to be clear I'm not even religious im just way too into angels#Uhhhh anyway I guess the moral of the story is that I did that just because I wanted to an because nobody could stop me#Actually Im just thinking about this now#I mostly drew baby poof without bug features to keep his design uncluttered visually#but fairies having naturally very human looking larva would explain how changelings happen#something something evolution. mutualism. those parasite birds. idk#ok im out of thoughts now seriously this time youre free now#speculative biology

It had been a day since the freshly grieving Vegan and BP offered their Headquarters as a sort of shelter for Shooter, Brutux, and Sheriff. Vegan doesn’t remember where the sudden hospitality came from, she just guessed it was from the hope that if they had others along for the ride, she and BP would be less likely to do absurd things. A weak wish on her part now seeing the states each of the three had been in.
Brutux had more or less, had the advantage of his age on his side. He was old enough to have been able to grieve from his mistakes and learn from prior recklessness. He had been the most adjusted in the trio. Compared to Sheriff and Shooter who had been shaking and trembling, wet animals in a downpour almost. He was the second tallest.
Shooter’s lower lip would constantly tremble and his dominant hand would occasionally glide over his barrel gun as a sort of reminder it was there. He would become more frightened and skittish whenever a weapon was held near him, or anything sharp. His eyes would glance at every possible escape the room he was in would have. He would rather run away in a fight, dignity unneeded to Shooter if he survived. Out of the three, he was the tallest, just from how frail and prone to running he had been.
Sheriff on the other hand was the shortest, and most likely the youngest, missing an arm, and based on the lump he had for a right arm it was an uneven cut. But like a parallel to Shooter, he was vicious, practically always ready to strike, and would always hold out his one arm in front of Shooter whenever BP, Vegan herself, or Brutux, strangely enough, got too close to the anxious Shooter.
His face would contort to a false snarl, Vegan swore she saw that look on herself when she was younger, being the only one to take care of BP. So she respected the wishes of Sheriff and stayed away from Shooter.
Until now, when he had come up to her, continuously swallowing in anxiety, asking her if they could’ve spoken in private. On the outside, they fled, away from the noise, with the sky turning into shades of purple and blue. He had asked her not to call him a thief, to never call him that ever again. So she had been curious, it wasn’t in her own right to know, but she felt connected Sheriff in some aspect.
“Why? I won't do it, I see you got your hands full with Shooter, but still, interest is peaked.”
He looks around, spotting no one he clenches tightly onto his left suspender. “My brother wasn’t always a nice person. I loved him so much, embarrassingly so. I’d follow him around everywhere, but he’d never have the patience to deal with me and my constant needs.” He pauses, thinking of something, looking around once more. “He had gotten angry at me whining for food after days of no eating. I had eaten all of my rations at that point, and we’d been shaking from the cold nights, or burning in the hot sun. So he yelled at me, and left. All from me trying to take some of his own rations. We had been in an open field at that moment in time.”
Vegan makes a face and he looks away, letting go of his suspender to grasp at his arm stub. “He told me to stay there, no matter what as he cooled down, somewhere in some shaded area, probably a building, while I stood in the sun, the boiling hot sun.” He makes another face at her clear confusion, “So I did that, I did it for hours, just waiting for him to grab me by the wrist, literally or metaphorically. It was often literal. And so I waited, for hours, and hours. I almost slept, but I had wanted to be awake when he came over. So I didn’t sleep.”
Vegan knows she should say something, and tell him to stop, but he kept going. “He called me a thief, as I sat down on the hot sand of the ground and thought about what I had done. Despite the growls of my stomach, I sat there. That was until a group of zombies found me, sitting alone and tired, and I was going to let it happen, until Ryan shot them down, saving me in the process. But with the gunfire, we had attracted more zombies, and with every zombie killed, two more would show up in its place. We were swarmed. So he had done what any older sibling would’ve done. And he got through as many as he could, keeping me safe. Not caring about the obvious bite marks he had on him at that point. Just as long as I got out safe.”
Vegan feels ill, all Sheriff does is wipe the tears from his eyes and look down as he continues telling the story. “The last thing he was able to conceivably say to my face was ‘thief.’ All other attempts had been futile as he was just one of the unlucky people to have been more at risk for the virus. I had waited before killing him Vegan.”
He looks back up at her, wiping his tears, “I was wrong then, because he bit me before going down, as some sort of curse or joke from the universe, he had dragged me down with him.”
“Sheriff...” She says softly because she knows where this is going.
“I saw an opportunity and took it when I spotted the axe in the small building we had been staying in. I was far too lucky that day, trying to use your non-dominant hand for cutting stuff never does make the cuts clean and easy. I do realize now though it hadn’t been sharpened in a while. It had been dull, and couldn’t cut or tear into flesh well. And it was an axe, not really a butcher’s preferred choice for cutting.” He smiles a small bit, looking down at the ‘jokes’ he had been making.
Vegan is starting to think he’s deranged, and based on how terrifying that had been, just hearing it from an outsider’s perspective, she doesn’t want to even think about how it was for Sheriff, who had been… nine at that time. He leaves shortly after that, waving his one arm, mentioning the fact always was there for advice or if she herself needed to vent.
She had merely vomited her guts out in some corner of the outside and just hurled, and hurled, even if it was more bile than anything else. Her throat would burn, aching for days after that one interaction.
Haha so uhh,,, the thought of like- a zombie apocalypse AU has been one that haunts my mind every now and again. So take my thoughts ig??
So. So first up, we've got Sheriff, since in canon he's bitten by a mutant and slowly but surely mutating I kinda went: well I wanna keep that (getting bitten) but obviously I can't have 'em turn into a zombie (since he's a MC & theres no cure). SO! What I came up with is this: He gets bitten on the arm, yes. But since the process of turning into a zombie is slow-ish, He has the time to hide somewhere and do a very shoddy amputation job with an axe. Course it hurts like hell but since his arm is already dying it doesn't hurt *as much* y'know??? It also stops the process of turning so he's all g now (aside loosing an arm.) he may get a prosthetic at some point idk,, maybe thats why he's in debt w/ Brutux in this AU.
Ryan,, uh well he's dead for good. And to make it worse, Sheriff is the one to put him out of his misery :33
Next up on the chopping block we got Dr. White, since in canon, he's first introduced as a mutant (before getting cured) but lik,, there's no cure in this world. So uh yeah. He's a zombie. And he dies for good also. (His kids totally aren't the ones to kill him. No sir) The guy attempted to create some kinda cure using zombies and one of 'em broke out and bit him. By the next morning he was pretty much turned and forced his kids someone to put him outta his misery.
The main group is just built on distrust and the want for protection. Sheriff and Shooter meet after Shooter breaks into a small-ish town of survivors with intentions of stealing. He gets caught and the townspeople demand he get executed or somethn. Sheriff saves him from that fate and the two run off to god knows where.
They end up seeking shelter from Brutux, and while they both have debts with him he's willing to let them camp out for the night. Su & BP get introduced because they rob Brutux's place of supplies (namely guns and food) Brutux drags the other two along to catch 'em (Because they have debt w/ him and gotta pay it off somehow))
The trio catch the siblings and they offer the HQ as a base of sorts. And since it's a lil more secure than wherever Brutux is hanging out; they agree.
Idrk what they do after this point so use your imagination.
I think thats all I've got for now,, idk, may expand if it plagues my mind for longer (someone hold me down and restrain me, I should not be allowed to continue making up random AU's. It's an issue.)

Family matters.
m!(trans)Dark Urge x Enver Gortash.
Brainworms finally got to me, I caved in and wrote a oneshot on the topic of "but what if Durge and Gortash had a child prior to all that mess"
Featuring my Dark Urge Levi, pre- and post- memory loss.
There was a living, breathing infant child in his arms; and for the first time in a long while Lord Enver Gortash was in complete loss at what to do.
“What is it?” fell rather flat down, a poor excuse of a question.
Leviathan rolled his eyes.
“A meaty flesh of some newly created life,” he huffed, visibly annoyed. “Also known as a child. I assume you’ve met their kind?”
Enver felt anger rise alongside with deeply rooted annoyance. Whatever spectacle the bhaalspawn decided to partake in, now was not the time for that. Neither it was the time for his witty itty remarks.
“I am well aware it’s a child,” he argued back just as sullenly, the said child held loosely in his arms. In his arms. Why was there a child in his arms? They were not made for holding babies.
“I’m asking why is it a child and why is it here. The questions any sane person in my place would indulge in.”
There was something...off about the bhaalspawn.
Not only Enver hadn’t seen the man for almost the entity of a year, an assassin always claiming some task of utmost importance, but now he decided to pop out of the thin air with a live child in a tow and immediately push said child into his, Enver Gortash’s, not so open arms.
It was alarming, to say the least.
“Oh, that,” Levi waved him off like it was a casual annoyance and not a conversation two adults, so-conspirers - partners - had. Like Gortash imposed himself into his free time and personal space and not the other way around. “It’s yours.”
It’s what?
“Or at least I assume it’s yours,” Leviathan followed as Enver’s thoughts came to a rapid halt. “Since I haven’t touched anyone alive but you in a long time. And look where it led me,” the look of pure disdain was all the child was getting, it seemed. “A freshly made meaty cage for a new soul. Disgusting. You’d think Father would make this shit stop and would not allow a child of banite to be born, but I guess any bhaalspawn is a good little pawn under his merciful gaze. Anyway,” a wild, excusing gesture of a hand. “I don’t have any use for this...thing. Sceleritas suggested to bring it into the fold and let my men do all the work, but well, the bother. So you can take it instead,” a winning smile what would work wonders if not for the whole absurdity of the situation Gortash just found himself in. “Think of it as of a gift. A proof of my loyalty to our cause, hm?”
Sometimes the bastard was more annoying than he was charming and his presence took a toll on the man.
Sometimes Enver wanted nothing more than to break Levi’s pretty slender neck.
That was one of these times.
“And what am I supposed to do with it?”
“Oh, whatever you want,” another wide, generous gesture. This asshole truly thought of that...child as if of a gift to be given away, didn’t he?
Enver shouldn’t have been surprised, not really, he knew Leviathan’s stance on children.
“Taste good, not much of use when alive, it’s funny when they die first” – was as good of a take as one could expect from the leader of the Cult of Murder.
“You can throw it away or feed it to the dogs. You can raise it or give it to a hag or even sell it to the devil,” another smile that’s more malicious than anything else. “I don't really care, if I'm being honest.”
Unfortunately, killing a bhaalspawn when you were holding just another bhaalspawn would prove to be close to impossible.
It would have to wait, and Leviathan Anchev still had his uses, bratty as he was.
And his appeal, as deadly as that ordeal proved to be. Or how complicated.
A child, huh? Well, Enver supposed every ruler needed an heir.
“Bring me the wizard,” was the first order out of his mouth when bhaalspawn left. The child was safely given into the care of the first competent older servant, who looked just as bewildered as Gortash himself felt. “Tell him to scan the...the-“
“The boy, my lord.”
“Right, tell the mage to scan the boy’s heritage. Let’s find who his parents are, shall we?”
Trusting a psycho murderer was an awful idea even at the safest of times, and now were not those. Levi would lie just to fuck with Enver. Levi had to lie, because there was no way this infant boy was actually his, Enver’s, flesh and blood.
***
Leviathan Anchev did not lie.
***
Levi moved away to sprawl his body across the bed, the creature of leisure he was. He sniffed the air and then wrinkled his nose, closer to an animal than any other person Gortash has ever known. More appealing in that, in his beast-like fluid grace.
“You still have this thing around,” the man commented, frowning. “Why? Playing the dollhouse? How...quant.”
“This thing has a name,” Enver couldn’t not parry. “Noah.”
Leviathan groaned.
“Oh, spare me the details; I want nothing to do with that flesh meat. Having to carry it inside my body for almost a year was a bother enough. Almost cut it out myself on multiple occasions, but Sceleritas insisted the internal damage I’d deal would be too great to handle. Idiot.” A moment of a thoughtful pause.
“You know what my destiny is, right?”
A searching gaze, reaching hands, clawed fingers cupping Enver’s cheeks almost gently. Something changed between them some time ago, but what it was Lord Gortash could not pinpoint.
Yet something...Shifted.
Levi searching his face for some kind of acknowledgement was a sign of this.
Leviathan Anchev Enver first met would not care less about his approval. Leviathan Anchev of now was Enver’s nearest and dearest and it was pretty much a mutual kind of thing.
“I know.”
To kill everyone in the world and then himself. In Bhaal’s name. A gruesome fate, and pointless. Dull, lacking of any grandiose his, Enver’s, path had.
If only he could break off this deadly conviction in his dear ally, if only there was a way to make him stray out of this path...
They could be good for each other. They could rule together as the gods of the new age; glorious, undefeatable, perfect.
The rulers Toriel truly deserved.
“Then you know I’ll have to kill this...thing,” a moment of barely noticeable hesitation. “This... Noah.”
Enver also knew he would rather see his lover bleed on the altar of his dreadful father than let it happen.
“I do.”
“I,” another uncertain pause. “I was planning to leave you for last. To kill you and myself in one final blow; a perfect tribute to Father. But,” and really, those damn pauses were starting to get on Enver’s nerves. Levi was never short of words before, so what in the nine hells had happened? “Would you rather prefer I’d do you and...Noah... together? To kill you two in one blow?”
Ah.
Enver saw it for what it was, in the uncertain, searching gaze of his unlucky lover, in the carefulness with which he produced words.
Something warm flooded out the irritation from before; something warm and soft and entirely fragile.
It was mercy, the only kind of mercy the bhaalspawn could know. Leviathan Anchev, the man fully capable of destroying everyone and everything on his wake, offered him a tiny piece of his own surrender. A confirmation of his affections, almost a confession.
In some ways he did care.
“That would be very considerate of you, yes,” he agreed, bringing bhaalspawn close. His bhaalspawn, his ally, his lover. The father of his son.
If there was a way of bringing Bhaal down without bringing Levi with him, Enver would find and utilize it. Otherwise he’d have to kill the best partner in crime he has ever had.
And that would be...unfortunate.
Levi leaned into the touch, soft and gentle in a way he has never been before; almost fragile.
Trusting.
“Does it...know about me?” came out in a whisper, almost unbidden.
“He knows you exist,” was all the response Enver could give, enveloping his assassin into his arms, holding him closely, firmly, painfully so.
The bhaalspawn squirmed for a moment before finally settling in.
“Oh,” he breathed out. “I didn’t think you would...What you would tell him I do. Exist, I mean. I’d expect you’d spin a tale of some tragically dead wife or-“
“There is no tragically dead wife,” Enver cut off, feeling rather irritated. A mystery of complications, his dear murderer. “Only a lunatic of a murderer for a father. Not what Noah knows that, he knows we’re working together and what you’re a very busy man.”
“Hmph,” Levi’s breath brushed Enver’s neck. “I guess that is true.”
“Do you want to,” and now it was his time to be a hesitant bother. “Meet him?
At that Leviathan actually laughed.
“Oh, absolutely not, keep him and that strange dollhouse of yours as far away from me as possible. I have things to do, people to kill, empires to rule. I don’t have time for meat-things, of my own creation or not.”
And just like that, it was as if nothing has changed.
***
The alarm goes off the moment Karlach finishes the last of the Hands and flies into a wall by the force of the explosive detonating right into her face.
Enver doesn’t stop to register that, or to look around at the bodies of his faithful, to mourn his perfectly constructed plans – his watch, the Iron Throne, the little fireworks shop – because the alarm in Noah’s private chambers went off and it only means one thing.
Intruders.
He skips one step at the time climbing up the steep steps to the higher, more private level.
Could that be the remaining of Orin’s assassins?
Levi said he dispatched of them all, but surely some had to survive by the sheer luck of not being in the temple at the moment. Are those Ravengard’s forces, Florrick’s?
Is it Leviathan, finally coming to sniff out the life he himself created?
He is vaguely aware of the younger Ravengard and the pale elf taking the chase after him, of Karlach joining in.
They think he is escaping.
Idiots.
Enver tries not to think what he is leading the enemies right to his son; he’ll deal with them later. Right now there’s blazing alarm shrieking what something is wrong – and indeed it is, as he discovers with the first body lying dead on the floor. Then the second. Then the third.
All of them – with their throats ripped open, Leviathan’s favorite style.
Enver turns the corner and reaches for the door handle – the door is unlocked and half open: this is bad, bad, bad-
Then he hears a laughter and pauses.
He opens the door slowly and carefully instead of throwing it open as he intended at first.
And sees...
Levi is sitting cross-legged on the floor, leaning slightly forward.
Across of him, sitting in the exact same – ridiculous – pose sits the boy not older than five. He has a dark messy hair, blazing green eyes what betray his nature, and the new game Gortash brought to him just recently. He is trying to explain the rules to the tiefling in front of him, who listens attentively, nodding here and there.
“Wow,” Leviathan Anchev comments with an air of nonchalance he didn’t have before. “I did not understand a thing. But good for you, lil one, good for you.”
“It’s really not that difficult,” Noah insists. “I can teach you! We can play together.”
Enver steps closer, somehow is still not detected neither by his son nor by his...his what?
Karlach almost crashes into the doorframe after him, but somehow manages to steady herself, takes in the view in front of her – and freezes.
So do the other two of Levi’s unruly companions. Gortash especially doesn’t like the pale one; he has a habit of sticking way closer to the bhaalspawn than it is proper.
“I am not that good at these kinds of games,” Levi admits as his tail flips from side to side and nostrils flare; he has detected him. Probably smelled before sensing. “But I have a friend with a real knack for them. He is a wizard and knows a lot of fun things; I think you’d get along.”
Noah looks uncertain.
“Are you sure?” he looks down. “I don’t think...I’m not allowed outside.”
“Really? And why is that?”
“Well,” the boy fidgets with his game. “Father says people who oppose him would try to use me against him, if they knew I existed. So I am kind of...a secret? It’s for my own safety!” he immediately adds, seeing Leviathan’s face blank out. “There’s a murderer on the loose, she really doesn’t like father despite supposedly working with him. Father says she will kill me if she finds out I exist.”
“Oh,” Levi looks taken aback at that. “I don’t think you need to worry about that anymore. If you’re talking about who I think you’re talking about, then she has been dealt with already.”
“Oh!” Noah brightens. “By whom?”
“By me. But say,” the spawn looks quizzically at the child in front of him, frowning slightly. “Is it just your father and you? Where’s your mother?”
“I don’t have one,” and this is definitely the moment then Enver needs to intervene, but he is just...frozen in place, turned to stone.
Leviathan Anchev he knew hated children.
This Leviathan Anchev is talking to a child as it was his best friend.
“I have a dad though!” Noah is a sweet fool, Enver taught him much better than telling complete strangers his entire life’s story. Stop. Talking. “He is...working a lot and is too busy to visit,” the boy looks down gloomily. “But! He and father are very close; they even stole from the devil together!”
Levi blinks. Then blinks once more. Then again.
“The devil, you say?” and is it just Gortash’s imagination, but did the man’s voice just rise up an octave?
“Yes! And not just any devil, the achdevil Mephistopheles!” Noah looks so absurdly proud of that it hurts. “They snuck right into his home, stole a crown from his vault and returned here. Unspotted, unstopped. Victorious.”
“What the fuck?” Karlach lets out and both the boy and the bhaalspawn who created him turn to the door.
Noah’s face immediately brightens.
“Father!” he exclaims, hastily getting to his feet and rushing to him. Behind the boy Levi gives the man the most bewildered stare he has ever seen.
“You have a child!” young Ravengard speaks out with the accusation in his voice. Enver really isn’t sure whom the man is addressing.
Noah is unperturbed.
“Father, I met a really cool guy, his name is Levi and he must be your friend because he came here with no problem at all; and he has children at his camp, two girls named Yenna and Arabella. Arabella is a druid because she stole the idol of Sylvanus and it gave her powers, and Yenna has a cat! But the cat is anxious so I shouldn’t pet it, but I can look at it! Please, can I look at Yenna’s cat? Levi said the evil murderer is dealt with, so it’s probably safe. And Levi can guard me if needed. Also there’s a vampire spawn in his camp and-“
The pale elf coughs.
“Hello there,” he tries, pulling a not entirely convincing smile up his lips. “A vampire spawn speaking. And you would be...”
“I am Noah!” says Noah right away; and did Enver shelter him too much? Damn, he has sheltered him too much. Look at the boy, he wants to befriend a vampire spawn. “I’m the son of the Archduke! Hello.”
“Yes, hi,” the elf looks at Levi uncertainly and back. “So...”
“So,” the bhaalspawn steps forward, the bewildered look stuck to his face. He crouches down to Noah’s level and takes his hands into his calloused and clawed ones. “So Noah...Your dad is the man who helped your father to steal the crown from the devil, is that right?”
Noah nods vigorously and Enver takes his time to observe the scene; the two bhaalspawns in front of each other, Levi’s posture, his relaxed shoulders, his slightly shaking hands. The tail that seems to have a life on its own and moves agitatedly behind its owner.
Three companions of the bhaalspawn, all somewhat stuck in place, with different levels of surprise stitched up their faces. The pale elf – a step closer, almost lingering at Leviathan’s side. Annoying.
Yet somehow, no matter how hard Gortash looks at it, he doesn’t sense any danger. Doesn’t see it, even with Karlach still aflame by the doorframe.
“Yep,” Noah agrees eagerly. “I wish he’d come to meet me soon. He will come, right? Once the work is done and all,” the boy sighs. “I mean, I am his son, surely he would care to come to meet me.”
“Um,” the tiefing looks uncertain. “And what if...something happened to him? What if he, say, lost his memories?”
“How? Did something hit him in the head?”
The vampire spawn chokes on a laugh and Levi rolls his eyes at him.
“Sure,” he agrees. “Let’s call it that. So...what if he doesn’t...exactly remember having you?”
“You mean if he’s lost and doesn’t know he needs to come back?”
“Something like that.”
“Well, I guess I’d come looking for him. He is my other father. It’s important.”
The force of conviction behind these words hits harder than a thunderwave.
Leviathan blinks hard, clears his throat, and then-
“You...don’t have to. I don’t remember much about my life before...certain events, but it was made adamantly clear to me I was the one to break into the Mephistopheles’ vault with your father. And if your dad is who did that, then,” he stops. “Then I guess- Enver, are you really just going to stand here like a fucking statue? Tell me if this is what I think it is or not.”
“You swore!”
“No, the fuck, I did not. Enver-“
“Now you swore twice!”
“Oh, for fuck’s sake-“
“So,” Gortash steps forward, a lazy smile dancing on his lips. Gods only know how much this smile costs him. “You have known your son for the entirety of twenty minutes and already taught him a swear word. Really impressive.”
“Father?”
“Oh, listen here, you poignant prick-“
This, Enver thinks, is what family feels like.

Why is having a squish/friend crush so nerve wracking and difficult but also kind of a breeze bc it's not romantic
#ranting in the tags#it's harmless! it's not a romantic crush at all!#literally had the thought of “hey what if i asked this person to like. hang out outside class”#and then my brain went “GIRL THAT'S GONNA GET MISINTERPRETED SO FAST”#(realized that i'd essentially be. asking thim out and uh. my intent but also not)#i wanna get to know them as a person#not get in their pants#just guh. the fear of being misunderstood and accidentally pushing them away! yay!!!#the thing is. i'm down to tell them! but like. i have not had them in a 1 on 1 situation to do so like. ever.#what do you expect me to do. blurt it out ij class? fuck no.#*head in hands*

reblog this post if you'd be interested in a bmc big bang
forever ago we had a couple big bangs and then it fizzled out so. i'm wondering if we would still have enough interest to run another one ! a big bang is a fandom event where authors write fics (10k word minimum over about 6 months) and then get paired with artists who create artworks (can be a playlist, graphic, banner, edit, video, etc) for their fic, and then it all gets posted in, like, a one week period. hopefully it would push new longfic & art into the fandom and kinda bring people together !
you can write for any pairing, but there would be no rpf, incest, squip ships, or sexually explicit scenes with underage characters. i've uhh never done one of these before personally but you can look at @bmcrbb to see what the old ones were like. and my main is @pumakittycat if you're wondering who tf i am. this post is just to gauge interest ! you can message me with any questions or suggestions and uh. i'll open proper signups if i think enough people are interested
#bmc#be more chill#boyf riends#stagedorks#pinkberry#richjake#expensive headphones#tbh not expecting a tooooon of interest but uh. i'd participate. so#and since bmcblr is getting some ground uh. is there a better time to ask

There's been interesting developments at work and i need to do a lot of work for university so i think tonight is the Perfect time to finish beyond evil
#i can't even begin to explain how ridiculous the work stuff is on here because it won't fit in the tags and I'm definitely not making a#whole post about it but let's just say it's crazy how detached that boss is from reality and realistic expectations#also none of this was actually communicated to me by the boss but i got to know about it from my colleagues who were like#'uh it seems like he [boss] wants you to take [BIG journal]' which is enraging actually since this would not be part of my#job description as I'd be a trainee and not an editor#but I'd have to work as an editor for the pay of a trainee (which btw is ridiculously low))#ANYWAY#i also have to write my papers finish my assignments write my internship report find a master's thesis topic and find a supervisor#within the next 2 months#but tonight#tonight is beyond evil night#(probably not gonna finish it. but I'll watch the rain scene and maybe even finish ep. 15 so you can imagine#what will happen tomorrow hehehehehehe#prepare for a flood of BE content as I'll be losing my mind once again just like i did the first 11 times)#and it's probably a good way to distract me from my coworker's absence ㅠㅠ i need to cope Somehow so#why not like this#watching BE is a good and appropriate way of handling any difficult situation (:#void screams#beyond evil#tbd probably#I'm overwhelmed and therefore chatty#not even sorry

507 is in the running for my least favorite episode, which I think is actually a compliment because I don't hate it, it just feels less funny to me because the singing makes it take longer and lowers the JPM (jokes per minute). also, I do enjoy musicals, but I have to fight a very strong natural cringe response when people start singing in non-musical stuff, even if it's not bad
#pickle pontificates#mission to zyxx#there was some behind the scenes thing where they mentioned people not liking the musical episode and the 19s#and uh. haha color me guilty#not that I hate them! in fact for the 19s it's mostly because I love the main characters so much I'd rather just be hanging out with them#that said the courtroom one was really funny to me as a parody and the others are better on a relisten#once I've already gotten familiar with what's going on#i am so sorry to 519 enjoyers. you are so valid though#anyway all that said jakk and shai'an is still miles better than the last podcast musical episode I listened to#not gonna name names cause I'm kinda salty and mean about it#and legitimately the only episode I actually skipped on my relisten was 111 for personal reasons (episode too wet) not cause it was bad#honestly. i would expect there to be a couple real stinkers out of 100 episodes and there just aren't any that I can think of

wow, you get bullied a ton in middle school and think you've grown immune to it, get to adulthood, and then unexpectedly find out that getting bullied actually feels ten times worse than it used to
#negativity#offered an opinion with sources in a discord discourse channel (my first mistake yeah i know) and promptly got absolutely dogpiled on#they aren't insulting me (that's against the rules) they're just collectively laughing at me and implying i'm stupid#like oh okay cool#i thought - maybe they're teens?#NOPE self-reported all over 25#cool cool cool this sucks even worse then#shoutout to one guy who basically said 'all our voices matter' and hearted my two messages though#i'll take even that tiny support tbh#i thought my position was so obviously at least understandable also#anyway my first msg was my opinion the second was me saying 'hey uh i didn't want discourse actually just wanted to offer an opinion'#and then got jeered at again for 'why'd you click on the channel then you idiot'#which like. yeah okay fair#but where else would you rather me put my opinion? fucking general??#no i knew i'd get a little clowned on i just didn't expect it to be like six different people#anyway i'm mad and hurt and this sucks#the crying lady 'you're all so stupid' meme is me rn

Man, just saw a post about it, but renewed my frustration over work nonsense yesterday
Being like, oh, cool! It's disability pride month! We get to switch the displays in the store! I wanna make a really cool display right up front!!
Getting a cart to go start selecting books from our wide array of children's books, picture books, YA novels, adult fiction, nonfiction, etc that I know feature disabled characters and people and that I've seen sitting on the shelves for a while, our previous book buyer was always suuuuuper vocal about finding books w disabled characters, after all, representation just MATTERED SO MUCH to her,
And then being absolutely dumbfounded when we BARELY HAVE ANYTHING outside of characters w ADHD/Autism. MAYBE anxiety. PERHAPS a character has cancer. THE FAINTEST SUGGESTION of a wheelchair in one book. Huntington's? Question mark? In another? Conditions resulting in disfigurement/amputation? The concept could possibly exist in this book, uhh.. maybe...... anything else? Ha! Not on these shelves I fucking guess?!
Like.... we have a ton of books w queer rep! Different body types! Different skin tones! Teach your toddler about social justice! Transgender characters! Nonbinary characters! The alphabet but we're making it gay! At least one book, I think, with asexual characters! But no, we don't have our self-empowerment books anymore or the little guide to sexuality and disability, we have Buddhist monk advice for anxious people, but nooooo we DON'T have that cool book that talked about disability activism anymore, and definitely not in time for July!
I know she and I were at odds before she left, and I know my specifically putting "National month of..." prompts up on my desk calendar after she expressed it was "so difficult to find out what each month is the month of!" probably really irritated her, but I'm like. Appalled that she hadn't been ordering to restock for disability pride month since she always made such a big deal about having books like that in the store.
#venting#work stuff#she quit at the end of june#two of my coworkers and I are sorta filling in for her role while a replacement is searched for and all that#i know she put in a ton of orders before she left so I'm hoping things start to trickle in#i haven't gone thru the order submissions in detail yet to see what we're expecting#but i'll be doing that later this week#as it is today was dealing with a mess of half unpacked shipments#and correcting little mistakes here and there and leaving instructions for coworkers tomorrow#gotta say i was so... disappointed hunting for those books#i looked at the sad selection of nonfiction and self help stuff I'd found and was like. yeah i think I'd be offended#if i saw these titles all grouped together for the pride display. it just felt bad#i made a halfway decent arrangement for the children's section but it took a lot of title research#and even then like half the titles i saw in recommendation lists looked so cool and i would think#surely we should have THIS one bc it looks like the sorta thing Buyer would have ordered and it seems neat as hell!#but. uh. we would have no order history for it.#hhhrrhhrhrhrgh if i see absolutely nothing in the orders we will be expecting#I'm gonna order a bunch of books#and try to plan out the next couple of monthly themes#hmph! even if I'm not the books person I'm still gonna put in SOME effort!!

For fuck's sake
#into the void#I knew I'd had it too good in the fandom so far#can't go five weeks without being dragged into some fuckin' drama#I'm not posting this#what. are they expecting me to take a stance in this. as a singlet#I mean harrassment is totally uncool#though the whole “we're excluding a bunch of people from our community because their experiences don't fit ours to a T” thing isn't#uh#the most sympathetic sounding either#also OSDD is a thing??#but again I'm not qualified to speak on this and I don't want to!!#Sunny is a system too that's his business#...a traumagenic one

#i feel like. um. tours go where the audience is#and uh. perhaps. just a theory. two english speaking youtubers are going to have a larger audience#in western counties and especially english speaking countries#they even only have two shows in the very south of canada#wait dam ni did not know canada's population is TEN times less than the USA. that explains a lot#anyways i was just getting to the point that they definitely have dedicated fans all over the world who would love to see them#and they know that#but they have to consider whether they're going to have 50 people in a theatre or 500#and if they're going to be forcing those 50 people to travel great distances or 500 ppl who live right next door y'know#to be quite frank despite the rennassiance i'd say they're still less popular than at the II era#damn WAD had SIX canada shows something's up with that.... maybe it's just bigger venues#seems like WAD has a lot more shows in a lot of places but i did compare the venues in my area and the TIT one is 2.5x bigger#anyways yeah my own example. i'm not sure if i'll go. even tho i'm watchign them again i'm not a Fan like i was back in 2020#damn THREE shows in florida that's insane. why#but yeah even looking at the USA map there's nothing in the northern midwest#i'm sure there are at least 10 phannise in montana who are scrimping and scraping to travel to washington right now#but the fact of the matter is the northern midwest is the most sparsly populated area of the USA#so it just won't pay off to travel there - even tho the % phannie is probably the same as the rest of the USA#the population is low enough multiply by that % = too few people!#and on the europe map we can see they're only going to northern europe#they're not even going to france or spain#now i'm not an expert in europe but i am under the impression that northern europeans speak more english#so more of them will be fans of english-lanuage dnp#and tbh i think the reason they haven't said anything is um. that they expected people to know this.#dnp#also um. ppl talking about this in context of latin america and asia um there's another big continent missing: africa.#but nobody seems concerned about that one because nobody expects there to be dnp fans there#so like people must understand this to some degree#also if dan lost money on WAD it makes sense they'd be more conservative booking venues#it's entirely reasonable to be heartbroken ofc just saying this bc i saw ppl say The Only Possible Reason is racism
