♣️ for Jameson, please! Congrats on 100 followers!

@fortunatelyjollybeliever I got two jameson hcs requests so I’m gonna do both of ur guys’ in one bc im lazy sorryyy 💗💗😭 AND THANK U SM 🫶🫶

- is a boss at mario kart

- same with just dance, max and him are always a power duo at it and constantly destroy everybody else because they’re try hards

- gets avery the most beautiful sentimental gifts for her birthday but for his brothers birthdays he will literally give them the stupidest thing ever as a joke 💀💀

- (this one is for somebody who told me in another post that I villainized jameson too much with the gifts so here’s an actually sweet one 😔) but one time, for graysons birthday, jameson got him the most beautiful watch ever with silver lining that was completely graysons style, and if u flipped up the watch face it showed a photo of all the hawthorne brothers when they were younger 😭💗 (gray now wears the watch everyday)

- has a playlist dedicated to avery on spotify with songs that remind him of her 💗💗

- tied his shoes the bunny way till he was like 16

- actually despised suits when he was really little and used to throw a fit whenever tobias tried to put him in one 💀

- loves italian/mexican food

- him and xander used to climb the tree in their garden when they were younger and just sit at the top talking

- he’s honestly really good at drawing but only ever does it when he’s excruciatingly bored 🙄

- would take a bullet for his brothers but won’t even get them a cup of water if they asked 💀💀 (im joking pls 😭😭)

- got libby a framed photo of nash twerking for her birthday and she actually lost it when she saw it 💀💀😭 (she decorated the frame with heart stickers and bows for the ‘aesthetic’)

- jameson is actually a menace on april fools and one year it got so bad (with all the brothers rooting against each other) that zara stayed at a hotel for the day just so she wouldn’t get pulled into the hellfire at hawthorne house 💀

I’m sorry that’s all since I already did another Jameson one and kinda ran out of ideas, but thank you for the ask!! 🫶🫶

What if Luka expects Hyuna to come like she did in his round with Mizi and he is plotting something.He has the trust of aliens,the love of the public and no one would suspect him to do something outside the box,far from the image he created of himself.Hyuna made her appearence in round 5 when we didn't expected it. If the round isn't entirely dedicated to Ivan and Till,this may be an option.He may confront Mizi and Hyuna,they may not be able to rescue Ivan and Till and not make it in time. Luka may not appear at all.

(Me overthinking things: OMG Akugetsu will cover Hyuna's song this must mean something | The other me: OMG I can't wait,this song literally suits him!)

(I like the style of your drawings,the way you use colors and the way you phrase things! When something about ALNST comes out I just wait for your updates! I can't imagine what will happen on tumblr when round 6 is out. And then all of us will wait for the next one over again XD)

Till the end.

TILL... the end...

Ok this is the worst joke I could ever make.

Oohh. Luka appearing in ROUND 6 would honestly be insane. I thought about him making an appearance in the short teaser scene before credits, but if he actually confronted anyone himself that would be so interesting. Imagine all 6 of them in the same episode... the same room... no way... the Alien Stage would be real...

Luka attempting to sabotage Mizi and Hyuna is such an intriguing concept. I do think he's figured out that Hyuna will be returning, he grew up with her, after all. He's most likely aware of her penchant for protecting people. He probably expects Mizi to come back for the only friends she has left, too. He couldn't do anything the first time he saw Hyuna after ROUND 5, but he might be more eager to get his hands on her now. If we get our first adult Hyuna and Luka interaction during ROUND 6 I'd actually go insane. as much as I hope for it though, I'm not sure whether or not it will actually happen. ROUND 6 already has a lot going for it. A final confession of love already makes for a heavy episode, but with Till's newly revealed backstory added to the mix? Mizi and Hyuna's attempt at a jailbreak? The whole video would probably need an entire week to be processed and even comprehended, especially if they want to go into extensive detail on each aspect. Still, though, if Luka interfered... if Mizi and Hyuna were unable to save anyone and had to defeatedly return to the rebellion base carrying the weight of their failure, well, I DON'T THINK I'D BE REACHABLE FOR AT LEAST 10 BUSINESS DAYS I'd have to go into hiding in order to cope with that. But who knows! The fun part about VIVINOS videos is that they're always gonna leave you fucked up in one way or another!

AKUGETSU COVERING ALL-IN. TILL COVERING HYUNA'S SONG. I've posted so many times about this day holy shit its finally real. It really does suit him! Do you think AKUGETSU is

1) hinting that Till is joining the rebellion

or

2) giving us the All-In cover as compensation for whatever bad thing is going to happen to Till

(or a secret third thing: he literally just did it for fun and we've just gone insane.)

Ahh thank you so much for enjoying my stuff! I'm so happy, everyone's been really nice to me as of late and I don't know what to doooo hahaha I'm just really glad to share everyone's excitement for ALIEN STAGE :)

You wait for my updates??!! oh no I'm so sorry 😭 I'm quite late at times because I've had some stuff going on (I've barely said anything about the April Fools actor au 😭) but hopefully I'll be free to go absolutely nuts after the release of ROUND 6 tomorrow!! If you're ever in need of someone to scream about ROUND 6 with my inbox is always open!! Thank you for your kind words!!

Can't wait till I get to hear from you again! :)

I'm gonna vent (in dot point form) about all the podcasters of other teams criticising the Karlsson trade as if the Pens fans DOESN'T realise what a GAMBLE/RISK it is.

Our coach couldn't trust Casey DeSmith as backup goalie that we had to play our injured GOALIE JARRY. So no, DeSmith was NOT good for us.

We KNOW Jarry is our fragile omega princess who is VERY breakable. WHY DO YOU THINK WE HAVE 4/5 GOALIES?! I would not be surprised if we somehow end up playing ALL our goalies in the up coming season/post-season. Our luck is just that shit.

OUR DEFENCE IS NOT REALLY DEFENSIVE - Yes, we are AWARE OF THIS. Even with Karlsson we are gonna be OFFENSIVE DEFENSIVE. WE KNOW THIS. WE WILL DIE OR LIVE BY THE GRACE OF TRISTAN JARRY (and the other 3/4 goalies). Or by COMPLETELY destroying the other team's goalie and outscoring them. Unlikely but hilarious bcos you know the Pens are gonna fucking try this.

SULLY'S PHILOSOPHY SEEMS TO BE OFFENSIVE FORECHECKING ANYWAYS. Gods, we are gonna be sacrificing our goalies on our offensive forechecking play from EVERY PLAYER.

We are younger, you fuckers. So fuck you assholes. And our old men core still fucking played better than 90% of your teams' top player last season. Suck on it.

OUR BOTTOM 6 IS BETTER with the new acquisitions! Our top lines are also better with new bits! We have MORE goalies. We are soooooo much better than what we were in April of this year.

We were desperate to offload Granlund, DeSmith and Petry. If they bounce back next year for another team - GOOD FOR THEM. But they did NOT work for the Pens! I literally fell on my knees and prayed my thanks to the hockey gods - the Witch Kyle Dubas at accomplishing this.

NO. SIDNEY CROSBY WILL NEVER PLAY FOR ANOTHER NHL TEAM. Sid understands his legacy of being the captain & playing for ONE team throughout his long & storied career. He WANTS to retire as a Penguin.

We UNDERSTAND that once Sid & Geno retires that we are most likely facing a rebuild/drop off the cliff. But if they actually paid attention (which most of them haven't), we also got two to three young prospects in our system. And Dubas is literally REBUILDING our AHL team so that these prospects can mature in a winning environment and develop the best they can. What I'm saying is that the cliff drop might not be as steep as everyone thinks.

We understand the upcoming season won't be INSTANT success. Hell, it is probably gonna be a hot mess till like January. But by the gods it will be entertaining as we stumble around like feral kittens trying to figure out how to walk and kill things. And yes, we also know we most likely won't win the Cup next year. But we should be better. And who the fuck even knows what Sidney Crosby can will into existence.

We have one of the MOST attractive d-core. This is not relevant to this convo but should be HIGHLIGHTED at all times. If Karlsson grows out his hair we can have like 3 vampires on the team.

In conclusion, WE ARE NOW YOUNGER, MORE ATTRACTIVE, and fully realise it will be a fucking dumpster fire for like a third of the season. But it will be FUN! AND for the fire time in years we have REAL HOPE. And the knowledge that we are NOT going to waste the final years of Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang.

ETA: WE KNOW THIS IS RECKLESS AND CAN BLOW UP IN OUR FACES. BUT FUCK IT. SIDNEY CROSBY DESERVES THIS. WE FUCKING DESERVES THIS.

Hello!

I LOVE your story!!! CJ having healing Ninpo is so genius and it’s making my brain run wild with possibilities!

Are there any tidbits you’d like to share about the au? Also could you possibly explain what happened with CJ aging due to Ninpo (in the latest update)?

(No need to answer any of the questions if you do not want to)

AWESOME COMIC, AWESOME STORY, AWESOME ART!!! I can’t wait to see more!!!

Hope you have a great day ^-^

BDJDHDHDHDHD Aww dude stop you have no idea how happy this makes me 😭 I’m so so so happy you love my au!! 💗💗💗 I love the concept of Casey with healing powers! He’s has a temper but I still think suits him so well given how protective he is as a person ahah!! And I’m so glad there are ppl out there who agree with me too! But Hehe yesss join me join me in my healer!Cj brain worms hehehe

.

Hmm since you asked bout the aging(and that’s a little complicated) I’ll answer that first. So I can’t go into too much detail cuz that will spoilers for a comic and some other art that will explain everything! ..Maybe😂 But I will say this. Cj unlocked his Ninpo when he was 10 he was fine, he was aging normally. Till a certain incident happened when he was 11 and well.. we all know what happened next, freshly baked trauma and he aged a couple years forward overnight plus some extra long term injuries (that I will go into later).

The good news is that as long as he doesn’t push himself like that again he will be aging mostly linearly again? But the damage has alr been done 😅. But anyways, after the incident, he never pushed himself like that again. One, cuz the Hamato fam would never allow it and Two, cuz the recovery period is so long/bad (cuz Cj is no master and worse he’s a literal child unlike Mikey who was in his early 20s when the cursed Aging started) no one can afford for him to be knocked out of commission like that again. It makes him wayy too vulnerable.

Post-incident, at his worst he has only aged a few days forward but cuz that’s so small no one except Master Michelangelo (cuz he’s a mystic master and cuz he’s also in the same boat) can tell the difference. Plus it’s so negligible it doesn’t technically matter.

But long story short, pulling himself tgt from that incident physically and mentally took loooonnng time haha. But as you can see even now it still leaves its scars haha and probably always will.

.

As for any other tidbits? Oh gosh where do I start ? Ahh there is just so much to say! Ok update wise I’m actually working a PMV for Healer!Cj so if I go quiet for a while that’s why. Idk how long it’s gonna take but I’m excited to show some sneak peaks along the way lol. This is my first time doing something like this so here’s to hoping it goes well!

.

Lore wise: although Cj does have a subway car in the lair. Once he gets more settled in he actually bounces around quite a bit. Boy was not meant to stay in one place for too long. While he does spent most of the week at the lair cuz the underground is familiar too him, he will spend 3-4 days crashing on the couch at April/Casey’s apartment. And on a rare blue moon he’ll give Draxum a heart attack 😂 by breaking into his apartment and sleeping on that old man’s couch. After a while it becomes their own little inside joke 😂. Draxum tries Cj-proof his apartment using mystic or otherwise and Cj makes it a point to still try and sneak in.

.

And the surprise of no one. In this Au, Uncle Mi is Cj’s favourite uncle. Sometimes second pesudo dad. But mostly on accident by a very sleep deprived Cj.

.

I have plans for P!Casey to eventually develop Ninpo a few years down the line. But I can’t think of any powers for her so if ya’ll got any suggestions pls fire away.

.

And oh P!Leo is gonna permanently need a leg brace. Sometimes on rlly rlly bad days, he will need to use a crutch (not that he ever does cuz he’s wayy to stubborn) but you get the picture.

Raph’s eye is permanently gone, Donnie and his shell will heal but bro will have chronic back pain for life plus certain parts of his shell where the tendrils dug into the thickest are now numb cuz ya know, nerve damage from being literally ripped out the technodrone. Mikey will need to wear compression gloves but his shaking gets significantly better over time. So he draw but he still needs to every two months or so he can get pretty bad flareups which are jsut Oof.

.

Good news is April is fine aside from a broken arm during the invasion that will heal. Splinter was surprisingly not that badly injured just a few pulled muscles here and there. And Cj is Obvi fine too aside from a minor concussion that he got prior to time traveling. Which to him was basically nothing. The reactions by everyone else was hilarious and a major culture shock for Cj. Turns out his apocalypse pain scale was drastically different to their normal not apocalypse pain scale.

It was hilarious the gang were like: “you’ve running around taking care of us a lot. Are you good?”

Cj: “yup all fine. Just a few bumps and scrapes”

8 Hours later..

Cj: “It looks like everyone’s settled? Great. I’ll go grab painkillers for my concussion now.”

Them: “I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WERE GOOD!?”

.

Long story short no one escaped the failed invasion unscathed :’D but also whoops sorry for the long ramble 😅 this kidna got away for me 😂

[vivaladicamillo]

I saw your posts asking for ideas and I was thinking what If you wrote something about you being Bams younger sister and filing cky coz April doesn’t want you to get hurt and you have like secret relationship with Dico or Ryan

DICO/MARGERA!READER

thank u so much for the suggestion!!! im gonna do it for dico this time bc one, theres no fanfics of this silly dude and two, i havent written abt dico in SOOOO long. this ones for the dico lovers out there love yall, a dying breed🫡

WARNINGS: dangerous stuff, fluff, bran being bran yk

———————————————————

being bams younger sister has its ups and downs

bam as a brother is A NIGHTMARE

hes just such a dick

making fun of u, annoying u and being the “younger brother” type character bc hes just like that

u were 2 years older than him

so when u started kinda liking his life long friend, “dico”

it was kinda awkward bc u yk, hes ur brothers best friend

one night, u were just chilling at the house alone

ape and phil went out, bam was probably out skating somewhere and jess had band practice so having a empty house all to urself?? hell yea!

as u sit on ur couch, just watching some stupid ass movie thats on someone knocks at ur door

when u answer it, its Brandon dicamillo himself (dico)

“hey, uh is bam around?” he asks looking kinda nervous

“nah, i thought he was put filming with u, but its 9:00 he should be back soon.”

“ah ok, ill just wait in my car till he gets here then, thanks.” he smiles at u

“come on bran dont be a stranger! i’m m just watching a movie just wait inside till he gets back.”

you held the door open for him and he walks in and plops down on ur couch

in your spot.

“asshole what the fuck thats my spot”

“didnt see ur name on it.” he says smirking “also what kinda horse shit are u watching? let me show u some real funny shit.”

dico then proceeds to put on an old western movie

“what the fuck dicamillo??”

“what??! this shit is so funny watch this.” he says pointing to the tv as some guy dressed as a cowboy gets shot on screen

the acting was terrible yes, but the way dico was hysterical laughing at it kinda made u smile

his laugh, his interests, just his goofy personality made ur heart flutter

u didn’t realize that u had been staring into this mans whole soul for ten mins until he turns to u and smiles

“may i help u?” he says kinda chuckling

“oh, uh sorry..” u say blushing and kinda turning away

the silence that took place after could have killed u right then and there

until he turns to u

“hey uh.. ive been actually meaning to talk to u about something…” he says, that nervousness kinda coming back from before

u nod ur head as he starts to confess to u

“listen, i know ur my best friends older sister and this is kinda weird but… ever since i met u, i thought u were so cool! i wouldnt have expected u to like masters of the universe and filming bits as much as do…”

“yea, i can see how u couldnt have seen that coming bc of my brothers”

“yea, but anyways, ive always kinda…been into u, im super sorry if this is weird i didnt mean to make it like that i just think..”

u smile, did fucking brandon dicamillo just confess his love for u ??

“bran..”

he turns to u

“i feel the same way, ive always had i just didnt wanna make things awkward if u didnt.” u smiled at him and scooted closer to him on the couch

“really?!?” he said in shock

“mhm, i like you… like A LOT”

u move in closer and you two end up making out on ur couch

after that day u both agreed to date without anyone knowing

yea it was suspicious when u two wouldnt be able to film or hang out at the same time on the same day but the guys kinda brushed it off

u two went of secret little dates

dico would surprise u ALL the time with cute date spots

random cat cafes, parks, family ran restaurants, he just found little cute places in westchester to take u to, and u LOVED IT

when bam realized u obviously were seeing someone bc u were WAYYY to happy, u decided to snoop

going through u room he ended up finding one of dicos shirts hidden under ur bed

thats when bam decides to confront u about it……

—————————————

might make some type of part two to this but it depends if yall want it or not, hope u enjoyed! also please keep sending in requests i love them sm !! yall are so creative i love it sm

Mental Health Update

So as my boost in activity the past day might suggest, I am starting to feel a lil better mental health wise.

Can’t remember if I went into it and the reasons why my mental health took such a downturn, but at the beginning of this month I had a falling out with a friend. Someone I considered a close friend. And like it hurt quite a bit, brought up a lot of insecurities and past traumas and I guess caused a lot of introspection. I mean the introspection definitely led to the realisation that I’m straight, lol.

The beginning of this month I had started to feel like I was like back at square one with my sense of community though. Which when I really look at it I’m not.

I have a roommate I get on with really well, I have my best friend @cryptidwrangler and like I am in the midst of starting a new career where I have the opportunity to build a new sense of community.

I was actually meant to go to the LGBT+ Staff Network’s drinking social on Friday, but sadly there were train strikes. Hopefully I can go next month instead. And maybe in time I can get over my shy nature and start attending other stuff.

Like I work at a university now and there is a lot going on and a lot you can get involved in. I’ll be honest, even though I’m now there as a member of staff, there is definitely this feeling of being back at university. Like there’s loads of staff networks and activities, activities that are for both staff and students, a HUGE gym - this gym puts the gym facilities at my former university to shame, a staff counselling service, loads of leisure facilities. It is kinda awesome and if I hadn’t been so depressed the past few weeks I would have probably been enjoying it more.

I’m kinda realising it has been like nearly 4 weeks since my mental health got bad. That’s not good.

I am starting to feel better though.

I should say work is taking up a lot of my energy though and I am using the weekends to replenish that. In time I should start getting a bit more balance like being able to work from home some days. For now I am working on campus every day of the week though. I’m leaving home at like 5:45am and not getting back till 6:30pm and that has been this past few weeks where I was in a department letting me work 8am to 4pm. Next week, I’m helping my manager till she can find another department to place me in and she wants me in 8:30am to 4:30pm. I plan to ask her depending on what I’m doing if I can do 8am to 4pm, as it is better for me getting home. But we’ll see. I might not be getting home til 7:30pm for the next few weeks though.

I kinda have a bit of a weird job right now though. I’m part of this training academy and we spend 3 weeks training and then we get put into these placements while our manager finds us a permanent role. I just did a placement in Student Funding and my manager has lined me up another placement while she finds me a permanent deployment. She has said that placement is going to take a few days to a few weeks to get the details hammered out though, so I’m just going to be helping her with some stuff while she gets that sorted, lol.

But this is kinda leading into an update on the blog. I don’t think I’m gonna have the energy to watch Season 2 of Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur right now. I do have the Thursday through till the Tuesday of Easter Weekend off though at the end of this month. So 6 days. I’m having my hair done on Good Friday and trying to possibly meet up with @cryptidwrangler, as I haven’t seen him since April.

During that 6 day break though, I will start watching through Season 2 of Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur and posting my thoughts though.

And in the meantime, I’ll likely be a bit more present giving my random thoughts on other stuff. But hey, if you want to spoil Moon Girl S2 for me feel free if there is anything you think I might find interesting ahead of time. I’ll try and post my thoughts with the very limited information I have right now, lol.

But anyway, I am feeling a bit better and should start being a bit more present 😊

my 2023 summary of art!

Template:here

still not consistently posting anywhere, but I like doing these. they're fun there's a lot of things i would've liked to include but had to exclude, due to not being shareable on this account. maybe i'll have more stuff next year!

this is long, so details under the cut

JANUARY silly lizard oc i generally dont do much single line hatching, so it was nice to fiddle with it this time

FEBRUARY the wittle scrunkly lizard last time i drew this one, they were an lps shitpost, so its nice to like draw them normally lol

MARCH herman is running out of time glasses axolotl but make him neon idk

APRIL fancy calico i honestly dont know whats up with the clothes, i just kinda drew whatever tbh

MAY yippie!! toontown oc! was playing ttcc w/shard and co, this is the character i ended up making i also got covid around april-march iirc so i was feeling horrid for a while (and the remaining symptoms didnt clear up till like june)

JUNE an oc i got years ago but didnt have the confidence to draw for a while lmao anyways i like her colors and shape, she's fun

JULY mandatory artfight posting this was one of the last ones i did! ocs belong to pookapooka and they were so fun to paint

idk if ill be doing artfight again tbh. ive been doing it consistently since sun vs moon but its honestly felt less fun ever since the tiktok invasion`and how ppls behavior has changed, and especially since the whole ownership thing that happened mid fight this year. (not interested in any of the alternatives ive seen either bc they have the same issues, notably worse issues, or are not furry friendly) but tbh that might just be me being disenchanted with online art spaces due to the intensifying shittification of basically everything, fucking rip

AUGUST ring but hes going to jail (again but for real this time) the staxie monthly prompt was barbie mugshots but i . . . i did this with ring and lumos and promptly forgor to do this with cakes and ale like i was planning to lmfao im actually gonna watch the barbie movie tonight, renting it so i can watch it on the big tv (didnt watch in theaters bc expensive (movie tickets are generally 15-25 bucks in my area (compared to the 5-10 in my aunt's area (renting is cheaper per person)), and they changed the chairs to these weird uncomfy pleather recliners that make my skin crawl to "justify the price raise" + i hate sitting for more than an hour i need water, bathroom, stretch, and snack breaks))

SEPTEMBER ganache went over the hedge was very busy w/projects so i did little casual art this was inspired by me comparing the over the hedge version of supermarket by ben folds (upbeat & high energy) vs the one by the clash (melancholy + commercial-induced agony) ever since then i cant stop thinking abt how much the lemon demon guy's voice sounds like the fucking clash guy sdjkhfkjsd also over the hedge was one of my favorite movies as a kid and i watched it at least 10 times before we had to return the dvd to netflix. i also regularly played the flash games on the site until i forgot about it after finding out about miniclip + notdoppler from other kids and decided to use those for flash games instead bc more options lol

OCTOBER dta img for a new oc i got, funny long neck budgie thingy busy w/projects again so little casual art had to use old mini tablet bc previous tablet was completely unusable fucking rip

NOVEMBER ganache + cactus pony, they want to know if you have any bubblegum. do you? busy w/projects again so little casual art doodle i made in heavypaint (one of the old layerless versions, i bought a lisence for it a while ago.) i got a new tablet on black friday since the mini tablet was horrible + my broken tablet was making me work very slow

DECEMBER ring in the void (this is lore accurate) or as nic put it, "fucked up twilight sparkle" lol busy w/projects + gifts so little casual art i actually sketched this w/the mini tablet, but didnt finish it up till getting the new tablet

---

for reading this far, you get to see amogus.

i would've put amogus whisper on the chart but decided against it since im not done with that one yet lmao

[signanothername]

I have this energy to ramble a tiny bit about my villainous brothers au but idk who I can just go spam messages to so imma just leave it here, feel free to skip

Imma put it under read more

As for the asks still waiting dw I’m working on them promise <3

Kay so my way with writing stories usually is just scattered ideas in my mind that I kinda arrange and fit together like a puzzle, that’s why writing takes so damn long for me, I can never write down a clear outline or a basis that I can follow, I just let these thoughts float in my mind till I finally know where their place and what their function is in said puzzle

That’s basically what I do with both VB and ICIMI

So what the hell is my point?

The point is that I’ve been wanting to ramble about what I want VB’s story to be about, ik for a fact there are people who want it to be an angsty story or something like that and I feel kinda bad for them cause that’s not what VB is, yes, the turtles being villains have so much potential for angst and I absolutely am gonna take advantage of it (I’m an angst enthusiast after all) and I already have with Mikey’s anger issues post

But that’s the point, I don’t want to reduce the entire story potential of VB to simply make it an angsty story in which it’s just the turtles getting hurt or them hurting people

What I hope to make the entirety of VB’s story about is self doubt/self discovery, questioning morality and prelearned views, and unlearning self destructive behaviors developed due to said views, learning how to let the outside world in after thinking it’s out to get them for so long, learning acceptance and facing the fear of big changes in their lives

I want VB to be a fluffy but bittersweet hurt/comfort story with a tiny bit angst sprinkled on top, and of course we can never have them not be silly <3

Rise has a special place in my heart for being a very heartfelt found family story while also being really silly and lighthearted, it never relies on unnecessary mindless angst, and only uses angst with a goal in mind (Leo’s character development in the movie for example) and I don’t wanna make VB the opposite of that

The turtles and April are still kids learning, and learning can be difficult and full of scares and anxiety, doesn’t mean it’s impossible tho, but it definitely has its ups and downs, especially when there are people like Big Mama and the Foot breathing down their necks

But they’ll find a way, they always do <3

Anyway I’m done rambling hahaha sorry I just really adore this au with all my heart aaaa

Anyway if you actually read this thanks I love u /p

I have so much in mind for this au and I hope you’d tolerate me till I get that energy outta my system gzgzgzggz

[creativeartgal]

Ok so Im just going to rant for a bit. Sorry if it not coherent.

Yo devs what the hell!!! Why didn't you give Asmo a bday event. If your going to stop doing events then couldn't you have waited till Lucifer's bday? Dude ain't even my favorite but I'm still annoyed at this shit. Also I really don't like that the URs are going to be in nightmare now. I loved that Obey me did full events for characters bithdays. It was nice to read through the events even when it wasn't my favorite character. I thought that they were really cute. The only other time a game I played had that was when Mystic Messenger did it for Zen and it was more just an April Fool's event that was also his bday. Idk. Just sucks dude. I mean if you were going to stop doing events then finish all the bdays first. It just seems like incomplete that the other brothers having 3 bday events while Asmo will only have 2. Granted same would be the case for the side characters also but I mean the bros are the main focus so whatever still sucks for them too. Also something I didn't notice till I saw on Twitter there's no ssr for Asmo. I'm hoping it will come later like what they did for his ssr in the past event but I'm not optimistic about it.

Going back to the cards I really don't like it being a gatcha thing. I liked that it was possible to get a ur relatively easy (for me at least) if I just made sure to save up for it before hand. For a while that was how I got most of my URs when I first started. Like I already got to deal with that in twist for their bdays. And I have the worst gatcha luck in twist the last time I got an ssr was because I summoned 100x in the normal gatcha. Granted I have better luck when it comes to obey me but that's not the point. Honestly I'm not really sure if I wanna try to get Asmos card or if I should just hold on to my DV for when it's Mammon bday since it's most likely how all bday will go so far. (Sorry I am a simp for that man)

Also what the hell is with the yoga ball in the wanderer whereabouts? I thought that it would cost karma. Probably a little more than normal. But you have to pay money for it!? Dude I haven't even gotten any of the items using karma and now you gonna ask for actual money for this thing? Idk ever since nb came out I feel like the devs have been more money hungry. Like you can only get 10 DV with ravens, you actually need multiple versions of a card to fully level it up and more to raise the level even more and over really seems like they want f2p players like me to spend money. I wish I could say that it would make stop playing but I really enjoy the main story and want to see where the story goes so I will still be playing so I guess will still have to put up with this. Hell I'm probably going to forget about it after posting this cause at the end of the day it's a company. They are going to do whatever they want that they think will give them more money. Sure we can bitch and moan all we want but they probably aren't going to do anything about it.

So yeah sorry for the long rant just needed to get this out.

[cherry-colored-petals]

So for those who are curious, I have some news.

(this isn't an April fool's joke, this is actually serious and is a PSA)

So, to put this out of the way, I have something to inform everyone— mostly with some changes on this blog and my main (@.oletus-manor-logs).

As far as you guys are aware, this blog has been mostly a dump of my writing and self-indulgent shit of my anon sona, 🌸🍒. It's been really fun to have made this and interact with people, because there's a lot I wouldn't have known as friends in the space and I'm always grateful for it.

Though, I'll make this clear as it's a serious psa of mine.

So... I'll be getting to college (I'm on my graduating year for my 12th grade), and things are going to change for me. In this regard, I'd like to make it clear that I may end up having to post less on this blog to make way in case college comes.

This isn't to say I'll abandon my blogs. No, I won't unless I genuinely can't handle it anymore and need a break— but due to how shit is going, I'll need to adjust and that means having to adjust less on here and more on trying to get through college and get my degree.

In that regard, I'll be most likely posting less WHEN it comes (aka first day/week of college). So, priorities.. are most likely gonna be skewed on here, and I'll put my focus on my own shit irl.

When it comes, be aware that I'll most likely be posting sporadically when I have free time, but nonetheless will be absent if things get too much. It isn't to say I won't stop or anything, but as a heads up that when it comes (and I know it will if I get into the uni with the degree I can learn on), you guys will know.

This blog and my main had been a lot of fun to write and be on, but life goes on. I have to be prepared when it comes, and that means taking a huge step back on this place when it does.

I'm sorry if the announcement isn't what you expect. I really, really am. I'm not someone who gives up on shit for whatever reason, but this is serious, and I want to put my focus on something that can affect my life permanently than my own pleasures.

If anyone wants to hmu, I'm open for DMs in here, and to my moots, my discord is also open. I'll most likely be more active there till college hits me and I get news from the unis I've applied via college exams. Hopefully... Hopefully I get in.

In the meantime, expect random posts as usual till it comes. Thanks for reading lads.

An update about The Monsters Only We See

+ my future writing

Things have happened in the last couple of days and I have some news for you. They're not bad news, but relevant ones. It's about the near future of both my current project TMOWS and my future project that I'll announce soon. This is a long one, so I'll put it under a read more.

TMOWS taglist +/-: @gabelish @mel-writes-with-her-dragons

(hey sorry I don't use the taglist a lot 😬 I'll try to use it more and it's still open for anyone who wants to get added)

Things have happened and decisions have been made so sit with me for a second.

As you may know if you follow me, one of my goals for this year was that I wanted to publish The Monsters Only Wee See. I finished the final version of it around April or May (and the English translation not too long ago) and since then I wanted to get the register for copyright, ISBN and self publish of it done before this year ended. I thought I could do it in a few months at max, but then irl stuff just kept happening to me and I had to kept pushing back starting the process. Recently tho, I finally did and I got the first step done: get a special signature required for the registration. However, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

While reading about the process of it in order to know what to do next, something very troublesome caught my attention: the process could be started online, but has to be finished in person in the offices of the copyright organization for my country. This is all reasonable, of course you'd want to do an in-person procedure when it comes to giving the rights of a thing to someone. That isn't the problematic part.

The problem is that the offices are only in the capital of the country. Only there. ONLY there.

There's not like, a building per state and then HQ is in the capital like I imagined, no. Only there they are. And the capital is very, very far away from where I live. Going there by bus in NOT an option, and the plane can be expensive. I have to double check to make sure there's absolutely no option to do the procedure online, and talking to a parent about this situation, I've come to a decision.

The Monsters Only Wee See will not be published this year.

Tbh, this sucks. I really wanted to get this out by this year, but it's simply not realistic. Next year there will probably come a time where I have to move for a period of time near the capital, and then going back and forth in order to do the registration will be easier, so it'll have to wait till then. It sucks that I have to keep pushing back this project's end, but I also wanna do right by it, by getting the copyright and the ISBN and publish it properly. And who knows, maybe by then I'll be working so I'd have money to pay an actual book cover artist for the cover!! Silver linings, y'all.

So. What now? Well, since I thought I'd publish it during this year, I've also been pushing back introducing my next wip, the one I'll work in now alongside WCB. I did so as a way to keep my ADHD from ADHD-ing so I could focus on getting TMOWS out first and then working on the next one. However, since TMOWS is not gonna come out any time soon...I can now put it in the back burner and work on the next one! So that's what I'll do!!

Thus I'll be introducing a new wip sometime soon. I have to get the final details ready (like a mood board lol) in order to do a proper wip intro, but you'll be seeing it sooner than later. This also means I'll start writing the first draft for it that, technically, I've already started, but I can't decide on the hook so I've haven't done any progress at all.

So the posts about my wips will look something like this from now on:

TMOWS - Updates about the progress in the registration process.

WCB - Little excerpts and/or posts about the writing of Book 2.

New wip - Intro post for the wip and the characters, and little excerpts and/or posts about writing the first draft.

That's all I wanted to say, just an explanation of why TMOWS won't come out this year, why I'm putting it on hold for now and some preparation for the new wip. Thank you if you read until the end, and we'll see again soon.

Stay safe, stay healthy and happy writing!!

TMNT Christmas Carols: I. Jingle Bells

*deep breath* I know it's not remotely the season, but I'm copying these to tumblr in the order they were written, which means I can't post the next ones until I post these carols, and yes, I could probably just do them out of order and save this for Christmas, but no, my brain simply won't allow it, and yes, I am a slave to my brain's strange eccentricities, so here we are. ~~~~~~

I. Jingle Bells

“Cowabunga!”

“MIKEY!” Raph shouted as his youngest brother’s sled kicked up enough snow to entomb him where he stood on the hill. “That’s it you little punk! I’m gonna bury your shell so deep you won’t be found till summer!”

Mikey laughed as his brother started chasing him down the hill. Mission accomplished. “You gotta catch me first, Raphie!”

“When I get my hands on you—HEY!” Again, Raph was pelted with snow by a sled speeding by.

“Sorry, Raph,” Don shrugged mischievously.

“Sorry my shell!” Raph growled, padding his hands against the snow to give his sled a boost. By the time he made it to the bottom, both his younger brothers were already holding their sleds, readying to head back up the hill.

“Getting slow in your old age there, Raphie-boy?“ Mikey avoided a smack to his head as he smirked at Raph’s glower.

“Laugh it up, chuckles.” Raph shook more snow from his carapace. “Something was makin’ my sled slow down. Don musta messed with it.”

“I did not!”

“Dude, it’s not our fault you’re too heavy to fly down the hill like us sleeker models.”

“Actually Mikey,” Don interjected. “Heavier objects fall at a faster rate than lighter objects, so his muscle mass should work in his favour.”

“Huh,” Mikey cocked his head to the side. “Does that mean I have more muscles than Raph!?”

“Not likely,” Raph scoffed. “Just more pizza.”

“Well then maybe you should follow my example, because,“ Mikey leaned in close to Raph’s face with the smuggest look he could muster. “I still won.”

“Technically,” Don again corrected as Raph attempted another swipe at his brother’s face. “Leo won. He made it to the bottom first.”

Raph hadn’t even noticed Leo going down the hill. Or at the bottom, now that he looked around. “Where’d Fearless get to, anyway?” Don pointed to the top of the hill where Leo stood with his sled, looking down at them with a wicked grin across his lips. Raph rolled his eyes. “Figures.”

The younger three charged to the top where Leo was waiting. “Took you all long enough.”

“Don messed with my sled.”

Don let out an exasperated sigh. “I didn’t touch your sled!”

“Him and Mikey were teamin’ up.”

“I see.” Leo looked from brother to brother with humour in his eyes. “A team up?”

Leo turned to Mikey with a look in his eyes that the youngest instantly recognized as mischievous. How rare was it that Leo actually wanted to do something fun!? He jumped at the chance without hesitation. “YES! Dudes, a team race to the bottom of the hill! Last ones down have to do all the chores for the rest of the week!”

Raph cocked an eye ridge. “Me an’ Leo against you two?”

Don nodded. “I’d agree to those terms.”

The two oldest exchanged a glance and a grin. “Alright. We accept your challenge.”

“Alright!” Mikey threw a victorious fist in the air. “Racers, to your posts!”

As the four gathered their sleds and walked to the edge of the hill, Casey took a seat next to Splinter and April on the bench nearby. “So, anyone takin’ bets?”

“Bets on who wins or bets on who will actually make it to the bottom?” April smiled when she saw Splinter hide a grin.

“On your marks, get set,” Mikey paused for dramatic effect, looking over at his siblings as they crouched with their sleds. “…GO!”

And they were off.

The two older siblings took an early lead. Raph turned enough to flash a cocky smirk at his younger brothers when he heard Mikey shout “NOW!” Suddenly Mikey was off his sled, grabbing the end of Donnie’s bo, who whipped it forward to send Mikey shooting down on the hill on his shell, passing the older two and knocking them both off their sleds.

Raph shook the snow from his head and glared. “MIKEY! That’s cheating!”

“Nu uh! Don said it’s physics!”

Raph glowered as Don chuckled on his way past his brothers.

“Looks like we’ve been had.” Leo commented dryly as he removed some snow from his shoulder. He glanced at the pile in his hand and turned to Raph with a playful glint in his eyes. “You thinking what I’m thinking?”

Raph took one look at the snow and grinned devilishly. “Now you’re speakin’ my language, Fearless.”

Further down the hill, Mikey laughed when he saw both older siblings sitting in the snow. “Hey, Don! I think we’re actually going to win!”

“You sound surprised.”

“Not about us winning, I just expected more of a fight.”

“Well I wouldn’t put it past them to—“ Don barely caught sight of something sailing passed his face before he heard Mikey grunt and flip over onto his stomach, skidding to a stop several feet from the bottom of the hill. “Mikey!” Before he even had a chance to turn and find the source, another object hit the legs of his sled so hard, it was knocked out from under him, sending Don flopping to a stop next to his younger brother.

A victorious chuckle was heard from further up the hill as Leo and Raph high-fived.

“Hey! What’s the big idea!?” Mikey cried, huffing as he brushed snow from his shell.

Don also piped in once he cleared his face of a mouthful of powder. “This was a race, not a snowball fight! That’s cheat—“ Another snowball came flying down the hill, hitting him square in the face. He blinked through the ice with an unamused glare.

“Not cheating, Donnie.” Leo smirked. “Physics.”

Mikey couldn’t help an impish grin as he heft himself free from the rest of the snow. “Oh, so that’s how we’re gonna play it…” Glancing at Don, Mikey nodded, swiping up a handful of snow and shouting with glee. “IT’S WAR!”

And so it began.  

Don started by building a fort for himself and Mikey, as Leo scouted out the most strategic point on the hill for him and Raph to make their attack.

The sound of mischievous laughter wafted up the hill to where Splinter, April and Casey sat, watching the whole event with barely contained laughter.

“Looks like you were right, Babe.”

“I know my brothers.” April nodded.

“Well it ain’t like they’re the most unpredictable bunch a—“ A snowball to the face cut Casey off. He glared in the direction of the laughter.

“Whattya know, Case, that big bone-head of yours is good for somethin’!” Raph chuckled wickedly.

“Oh, that’s it. You’re askin’ for it, Raphie-boy. GOONGALA!” He shouted, charging toward his friend with several handfuls of snow.

“YEAH! Casey’s on our side!” Mikey cheered from down the hill.

“Doesn’t two against three seem a little un—“ Once again, Don’s objections were silenced by a snowball to his head. He looked up the hill with wide eyes. “April?”

“Just keeping things even, Don.” She shrugged, chucking another snowball in his direction.

“Alright! Now it’s a party!” Mikey could barely contain his excitement as he built an array of snowballs to throw at Leo, who was slowly making his way closer to the soon-to-be-dubbed ‘Fortius Maximus’ stronghold Don was building.

Splinter smiled from his bench, thoroughly enjoying the sight of his family frolicking frivolously in the snow. Such peaceful moments were few and far between, and with the mounting dangers that seemed to follow his boys around at every turn, it was a breath of fresh air to see them simply having fun together.

“Sensei, look—“

Splinter raised a paw to catch the snowball that had been coming for his head. The activity on the hill ceased as everyone froze, staring with wide eyes.

Splinter stood silently, his face completely blank.

“Sensei, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to—“ Mikey was silenced by Don before he could do any more damage.

Splinter turned to his children. “If that is to be the way of it.” A grin split his lips, and before any of them could blink, they’d all been pegged by an incoming snowball.

“No way…” Raph gawked.

“Dudes, YES! Everyone against Sensei!”

“I believe the colloquial term for this situation would be,” Splinter took a combative stance, snowball in hand. “Bring it on.”

Up to you who you think won in the end.

End of Line.

જ⁀➴₊⊹F a v a n i m e s

A continuación hablaré de mis animes favoritos!! Maybe someone could relate (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

1. Code Geass:

This has to be one of the most wonderfull powerfull amazing breath taking animes I've ever seen. I just love it. Love the quickness in which the plot goes, love all the twists, love the main character (the best prota ever, I swear), love the soundtrack (Hitomi made a PERFECT job), love the plot itself, love the end, love EVERYTIME... But the fanservice. I cannot agree with that. (ᴗ_ ᴗ。)

I consider this anime has a seinen one, but others think this is a shonen and they have a point, but I see it more as seinen.

Keep in mind this is an original anime, non adapted from manga. THAT MAKES IT EVEN BETTER.

It also takes the mecha resource and give us great battles, mixed with a lot of intelectual scenes. I have to say Lelouch, the main character, is one of the smartest of all the industry. My fav, no doubt.

All else I can say is that YOU MUST watch it, is life-changing.

All Hail Lelouch!! ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝

2. Ouran Host Club

This is an harem anime, not gonna lie about. But it takes the genre to another level. Makes a satire of all that moe shoujo animes and does it in a perfect way. It took a lot of laughs from me (which is considerably difficult). I also loved the end, despite of it presents events that don't happen in the manga. I haven't read the manga yet, but I know I should.

I truly recommend you to watch Ouran Highschool Host Club. You won't regret. ദ്ദി(ᵔᗜᵔ)₊⊹

Btw the opening's just a masterpiece

3. Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Ok, I accept I've just seen the original first anime, but It doesn't mind. I decided not to watch the rest of the products of the franchise.

But that fact doesn't stop it from being one of my favorites. I love the plot, I love the characters, I love the mental breakdowns and I loved the end. There are some animes you like but don't get into your favorites list till you reach the end. This was one of them. The end just made it even greater. I deeply beg u to watch it.

4. Your Lie In April

OK I have early seen this one, but it quickly became one of my favorites. I admit, I started hating most of the characters due to the way they treated Kousei (Main character), even Kaori (co-prota), but with the going of the chaps I could understand every character meaning... EXCEPT FOT TSUBAKI. I still hating Tsubaki but I'll not gonna explain it here.

And like in the previous case, this became one of my favorites at the end. I absolutely got more than satisfied with it. It made Kaori my top waifu. And IMO it is an anime that exposes many interesting themes about music and other teenage feelings. Watching it was so involving and of course, the soundtrack is just as perfect as It could be. So watch it, do it. But I don't think there's much people who haven't seen these before though.

Honorific mention: K-ON!!

I haven't seen all K-ON!!, right? But I know It has an special place in my heart when I watch it. It definitely my comfort anime and inspires me this comfy feeling I like feeling from animes and mangas. It's an slice of life anime, actually simple, but its like a bandage for your soul. (*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ*.ﾟ

That's all. Maybe in the future I'll be making a post about my fav mangas. Stay tuned!!

Tuesday, April 9th, 2024!

12:45am: Studied, now taking a nap till 4am lol wish me luck!! Had delicious meatballs for dinner, had a great day, saw the solar eclipse (!) and didn't hear from old guy which was nice for once!! Tired of him calling and ruining my Mondays with his sob stories :) I'm just saying I actually had a hella productive day because I wasn't triggered before noon! Hallelujah ❤️ good night everyone I love you all :) ❤️

12:26pm: I'm so burnt out and doneeee. Also just ewwwww ick what a fucked up guy fr I had to put him in his place in order for him to treat his gf right 🤢 fucking hell I'd be so embarrassed if he posted me ever again like I think I would fr cry out of embarrassment. I want to tell her so badly but(!) that would only put bad karma on me I really don't want that, just let her find out eventually ❤️ yuck

4:41pm: I think he blocked me from messaging him, but didn't actually block me? Why are there so many different ways to ignore someone lmao I didn't even know you could do that. Sucks for him. I'm done with my pediatric kidney transplant research, 🥳 and he's not around. Kinda like he died or something. He really went with me through all the bullshit but didn't want to stick around for the end result is kinda fucking crazy and stupid tbh. Really really really crazy to think another guy is gonna get the big baller Dr. version of me, and he only got the stressed out poor broke ass weight gaining student version but whatever. It's not like I wasn't going to make it at some point. Anyway, his loss and someone else's gain 😎❤️ You would think he'd appreciate it the most, but he was too pussy to have a bad ass Dr. as a wife and just REALLY wanted to be the aLpHa MaLe and needed a lower level bitch 😬😂 The definition of self sabotage and toxic masculinity/ red pill bs. I need a confident man to match my energy and that's really some shit he was never able to do. It doesn't matter what you do for a living either I just need you to own your shit. He always wanted me to be quieter or more chill because he just wasn't shit. Every time I shined he looked like a rusty piece of junk instead of just shining with me. It's not like I wanted him to be beneath me, but he really wasn't helping himself either. Whatever. His loss is someone else's gain 🥰 Can't wait to find my partner ❤️

10:09pm: I really want to take my birth control out but I'm just gonna wait until I can call the pharmacy tomorrow because I don't know how early I can pick it up! This is killing me. I have deduced from planned parenthood (thanks!) that because I've had it in for infinity number of weeks (lol) I'm good to take it out as long as the new one goes in at 7 days or earlier if I want to try to change my start date?. The out time just cannot exceed 7 days. I want to have it out the whole 7 days this time and maybe I'll duck around with it next time trying to move it to Mondays again instead of Friday?? Idk I just need this shit to enD I remember why I skipped my period for six months straight now. I think that might be a record I haven't seen much longer than 2-3 months.

Goals: Start my period asap (safely) and get as much out as possible* I stg I'm gonna be chugging cayenne juice n vitamin C and tea and water y'all don't knoW. I want the spotting to STOP. Side note I also put bandaids on my boob acne maybe this will get under control :')

Get through this week's work and become the CritCare expert and try not to fail the last OSCE omg :') last verbal defense :')) it's all coming to an end literally.

Seriously though staying hydrated and *stress relieving* are the main goals until next weekend.

By the time the 19th rolls around (!!!) y'all aren't ready for that HYPE ASS weekend free dinner and Jesse McCartney and then the last week will be a BLUR 🤠

It's so funny because when I'm lit I know I'm not going to be thinking about him. It's not even that bad anymore. I can't imagine when the stress is 0%. I'd say I'm more fatigued than stressed atp too, like stress is about 20% and it's all to do with my period tbh, not even school. A little anxiety about APPE so maybe 25% but I'm not even really thinking about that yet either.

[lokiscauldron]

Hey yall, personal shit negativity warning (death/suicide mention), feel free to skip if ya see this and dont wanna read :) warning over and have a lovely day/night!

today is fuckin crisis mode

Yk how you get those feelings like ur not gonna live till xyz age but every time it gets kinda close it moves out a year or 2? Mine isn't a age rn but I'm starting to freak out bc it's today (tomorrow?). Intense feeling for like 3 years that I wouldn't make it past this new years, even had a panic attack last year and by early March had accepted that I wouldn't see another birthday or even the next year. It stopped bothering me altogether in like April and I just came to terms with it. Unfortunately, it's new years eve and the deadline still hasn't changed for me mentally, but I have no idea how tf I would die tomorrow, like even today I went thru like 6 ways I'd die per hour all the way from accidentally poisoning myself via cleaning supplies (if I don't make it I want to leave a clean space for whoever finds me) to a car crash. But idk how it would happen tomorrow unless I killed myself which I can't do bc my best friend already had someone close to him kill themself on new years and I can't add to that and don't wanna worry him with this. So I'm posting it here. And I'm honestly more scared of not dying tomorrow bc I have made no actual plans for my life beyond this year bc I was so sure I'm not gonna make it to see them happen so I didn't see a point. I dont really want to kill myself rn but knowing me that wont last long, depressive spiral started around october and hasnt shown any signs of lifting and winter break has done like nothing for my mental health. If anything its given me more energy to hurt myself with bc im slightly less sleep deprived. Sooo yea hasn't been a great few days. Or weeks. Or months. Or years tbh. Anyways if I don't die ill post on new years and if I do happy new years! May the new year bring light a happiness to all of you, and remember you're worth it; eat a snack, drink some water, and take care of yourself. I love ya <3
