sometime during season 2 merlin realizes how dense camelot is. he’s been accused and even confessed to sorcery multiple times and no one has believed him. even when aredian accused him of sorcery, uther was hesitant to execute him. UTHER was HESITANT to execute him after being accused of SORCERY. merlin gets accused of sorcery bc people think he’s put them under a love spell. he’s gone to arthur at the darkest of times and whispered how he could perform a spell to save everyone and arthur bites back that its not the time for jokes.
merlin realizing how stupid everyone is. he tests it a few times: he gives gwen a bouquet of flowers and tells her he conjured them with magic, she just laughs and thanks him for the flowers, mumbling about how funny and ridiculous he is; he joins the servants in their ranting over their jobs and says that he has a trick up his sleeve to complete his job…magic!! they ohh and ahh sarcastically and mutter how much easier their jobs would be if any of them actually could do magic; he tells leon straight up that he’s planning on killing uther with magic, leon just laughs, pats his back, and wishes him luck.
the whole city is so fucking stupid!!! merlin tests his luck further and blatantly commits acts of magic in front of people and they’re just like “:o how odd…oh well” and go about their day. someone comments on merlin’s eyes going gold and he’s just like “mmmmyeah my eyes just do that in the sun sometimes” and NO ONE questions it. he notices how people go out of their way to help him and they slip him things for free or just as gifts. he notices how much he gets away with with arthur and morgana and even uther. merlin spills a bit of wine and uther goes “i will never understand why my son insists on keeping you around” and merlin smirks and goes “i put a spell on him” and uther throws his head back in laughter
merlin doesn’t perform obvious acts of magic, he doesn’t yell out in the old tongue in front of anyone or whatever, but he gets away with magic so much and he knows that no one will ever truly suspect him or accuse him anymore (and if he is accused then it wont go anywhere, uther will just roll his eyes and wave away the accusation) so he just stops giving a fuck. he ends up helping morgana with her magic and is like “yeah this kingdom is so fucking stupid i wouldn’t even worry about it girl”

The story will be very confusing because it's just a story smushed by my thoughts.
*Many of the bosses were killed by the fallen human, in the end Both Asgore and the human died. The souls were gone and the barrier wasn't broken, Toriel became the queen and Sans had to be in charge as a royal scientist since Alphys and Mettaton were also killed by the human. Papyrus became a royal guard and mostly helo to keep the monster's hopes up and often visit the Queen. While Toriel checked the ruins a few corpses of rotting humans were found but their souls were already far gone,she was horrified but quickly buried them and payed her respects to the humans. Soon Toriel got dies from sickness as those dead humans contain an unknown virus, Sans quickly had to find a cure as Papyrus , Undyne and many monsters also grew sick, Sans successful makes a cure but all was too late, Papyrus dies and so does Undyne and some of the dogs and monsters. Still he doesn't give up, experimenting with the determination soul, Sans did something to himself but couldn't tell what, what's more important is that he grew stronger and even though feeling hopeless his ho didn't drop. Sans had to manage many things, fixing the core, breaking the barrier, finding a way out. Years past, Sans barely holding onto his sanity. MK always visits sans as there's no one else who could, Flowey used to but not anymore, MK would always bring Sans food from grillby's since he seem to forget to eat most of the time, MK and the monsters left believe in Sans is very much grateful for holding on despite their hopeless situation. The Core was at it's brink, MK and Grillby knew that and the other monster's too have an inkling idea that the Core would soon give up, after all Sans has to do many things, with an unstable soul and mentality he sometimes forget about the CORE but the other's had stopped reminding him as they already gave up on it, they know Sans is up to something much more important than the CORE and that's all he needs to focus on. After years Sans finally gets the machine to work, he celebrates, MK comes in to give sans his daily lunch, he looked a bit sad but still smiled and cheers with him to not ruin the mood. Sans annoynces this to the monsters, about running away to another alter universe. The remaining monsters, which is barely anyone left looked at themselves, they wanted Sans to go *alone*, they were all already hopeless, and doubts they would feel any hope in another universe, what if the universe were as bad as theirs? or worse? they looked skeptical and refuse to join Sans. MK and Grillby tells him that he should go alone, that he deserves it, the only reason why monster kind continued to believe in him is because of his unwavering determination and perseverance to continue, despite most already 'falling down' in hp they wait patiently, so Sans wouldn't feel so lonely. They would feel guilty if they all dust, leaving him all alone. Sans tries his best to convince them but none would want to join him, they already gave up a long time ago and they would like their misery to end. Sans breaks down completely in his lab, Upon passing out, MK drags Sans' to the portal hoping for his survival and hoping that he'll live happily away from their home, MK does this as he knows Sans wouldn't leave all by himself.

anyone ever get like that random snippet of dialogue or something that comes outta fucking nowhere and just haunts ya? yea that is why this
sorry?
okay so hear me out nana rose and nana topaz star crossed lovers, doomed by the same stars cheryl and toni's fate is written in
theirs is a tumultuous affair, is what nana rose blossom, in her old age would say apropos of nothing, elaborating nothing
IF any sort of affair HAD taken place nana topaz would say nothing, Ever, sweetwater river more like the nile
It's hate Before first sight, inherited loathing
It's hate At first sight too but then well there's that saying the opposite of love isn't hate it's indifference?
and one thing they never are is indifferent
enemies to lovers doesn’t quite do them justice, had They met at the drag race or transfer day at riverdale high instead of toni and cheryl there would have been actual bloodshed
so it's strange then when they do actually meet for the first time on the banks of sweetwater river, with no witnesses for miles, there's not much of an altercation to be had
topaz knows who she's looking at immediately, any riverdalian would, the blossoms rule riverdale as if they were royalty, of course even if that weren't the case topaz would still know, the surviving Uktena don't have the luxury of forgetting even if the rest of the town willingly has
blossom only knows what she's looking at, southside trash
beautiful, captivating and utterly beneath her
she says as much and topaz spits at her
roseanne blossom takes in the flinty eyes filled with disdain, top lip curled in disgust, muscles coiled with a deep seated rage
electricity crackles between them
and roseanne blossom finds herself wanting
she always has taken the greatest shine to the things she can't have
and then she takes them anyway
topaz is too busy trying to ignore any whisper of chemistry, appalled at even the notion of harboring any inkling of non negative feeling toward a blossom to notice the look in the other woman's eyes
she promises herself it'll be fine, she'll stick to her own side of the tracks and go back to hating the blossoms in peace and anonymity
but the universe must have it's soulmate wires crossed because it keeps throwing.them.together
they went years without ever once running into each other, the town divide seemingly immutable and now they're colliding in the hospital and bumping into each other at pop's, topaz picks up a catering gig and blossom is attending, the woods several times while topaz is stewarding the land and blossom is being a little bit magical and a lotta bit shady, the sheriff's station,the drive in, the library
the bloodshed does come eventually it's a sunny afternoon when a brawl between northsiders and southsiders breaks out in pickens park
topaz and blossom waste no time honing in on each other, a kiss with a fist is better then none
someone bumps her from behind and topaz's knuckles glance off blossoms cheek instead of breaking her nose
roseanne pounces, tackling topaz to the ground in a way topaz never expected from the proper lady and grudgingly has to respect
they're grappling for the upper hand for what feels like forever, relentless, frenzied, when topaz feels herself hauled off and thrown a good distance away
she loses her adversary in the chaos until a police whistle cuts through the air and everyone scatters
she's almost home free when she looks back and sees roseanne still on the ground not moving, covered in so much blood
every instinct tells her to keep running
but toni came by her compassion honestly and her nana couldn't very well leave a girl with glass from a broken bottle sticking out of her fucking eye even if that girl were a blossom
so she doubles back, hauling the taller girl with her but she's a serpent and she's got a gruesomely injured blossom with her it's understandable self preservation that has her dumping the other woman at the hospital entrance and fleeing
when roseanne turns up at her doorstep over a week later with an eye patch and seemingly on a mission
topaz lets her in
it is a shock to see A Blossom on the southside and yet weirdly topaz can't say she's surprised to see rose
they fuck on nearly every surface of the trailer except the bed
topaz tells her to never come back again, that it can never happen again
she doesn't but it does
it's hate fucking until it's not
roseanne blossom steals topaz's heart without a care for the fallout, a true descendant of her ancestors in spirit not just name
all or nothing love, pure adoration or distilled hate? it predated clifford and penelope and even rose for that matter ingrained in the blossom DNA long before it fucked cheryl up
and toni isn't the only topaz to ever get caught in that crossfire, her nana payed the price first
graduation rolls around and roseanne leaves riverdale for highsmith and then a husband, children and wrought iron fences
she never looks back
and topaz is left to pick up her own pieces. responsible for such atrocity topaz never imagined the blossoms could inspire more hatred in her than she already harbored
oh how wrong she was, she vows to never betray her own instincts again and never wavers in that conviction
fast foward to a post comet/no 50's timeline where toni and cheryl have found their way back to each other
there's a party, anthony's birthday maybe or a the town didn't get flattened celebration
and the first time nana topaz and nana rose are in a room together with choni, toni's brain short circuits
she just *knows* doesn't believe it or doesn't want to but *knows*
just takes one look at the 2 of them glaring at each other, well nana topaz is glaring nana blossom is just vibing as usual and toni is literally just like "what the Actual FUCK"
cheryl does not pick up on any of this so when toni wheels around on her nana like "no, absolutely not, are you Fucking kidding me?"
cheryl is Not prepared to receive the cursed knowledge about to be dropped on her. after the vast quantity of literal and metaphorical skeletons alike she's found in the closet and the mines and kept in her bedroom she figured nothing any of the blossoms have done could surprise her anymore
she's wrong
they're starting to attract an audience
cheryl's hand painting soothing patterns along toni's back and arms is not enough to keep toni from exploding like
"do not tell me the actual reason i missed out on almost a decade with the love of my life is because a blossom broke your heart, like what 50 years ago?'
that's the dialogue that appeared unbidden and caused all this btw
and of course it's so much more complicated than that but the broken heart was certainly not a nonfactor, toni is livid and nana topaz is defensive but not actually copping to anything
meanwhile cheryl has turned on nana rose but she only manages a scandalized and damn near supersonic "nana?!"
who's naturally like '"ah yes it was a shame really your grandfather was nowhere near as good in the boudoir"
which is probably when toni has to physically restrain her nana from throwing hands
and half the town is just witnessing this latest drama unfurl like cool cool cool cool rivedale is still riverdaling
let's drink

BABY FACE BABY FACE!!!!!!!! KSDJDHG LFFKL WHY IS HE SUCH A CUTIE PATOOTIE
embarrassingly long ramble and wintersberg drawing below the cut:
lmao, I finished the GG playthrough of re8 the other day and uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
anyway yeah. Don't even know what to write about it cuz it sorta overtook me with no warning, and idk shit about resident evil but here we are.
I read mushrooms and magnets on ao3, i did the frowned upon thing and went straight to most kodo-ed (i KNOW it's wrong but i didn't feel like searching!! I just wanted to Read. If I stick around any longer I WILL read other things too), and I feel like that's probably a rite of passage in the ethan/heisenberg wing of this fandom. Blasted through it in like 3 days. Anyway, like, 3 quarters through it I realized I never took it upon myself to see what ethan looks like? I just assumed he had Typical White Guy Face, which yeah, he does, but after an image search.... I never realized he had such a baby face skjdgf sksjfh PRETTY BOY PRETTY BOY
So then I drew him. And I drew heisenberg too, although I need more practice with him. Plus I think I got gassed out for the night, after drawing ethan. it's really hot and it can be hard to remember how to draw for fun after doing so many commissions.
One of my go to drawing visions is one character in profile, and the other character all up in their face in a pseudo profile, 3/4, tilted angle. And idk why I keep doing that, because I fuck it up at least half the time. Ethan looks good here, heisenberg does Not. I need better references of him. Seriously, if someone has a karl heisenberg folder on their phone with a crap ton of pictures of his face from different angles, PLEASE send me some. I need a clear one of him in profile. All the ones on google have his face obscured by his hat, glasses, both, and he's always in dark lighting. Ironic that the one who's face you never see has better reference pictures.
Kinda considering doing a GG animated for the moment where ethan's like "I just want to fix my daughter!" and arin (as heisenberg) says "uh, she's in four pieces," because it cracked me up so damn hard. His voice is so dumb. I love him.
This came outta nowhere but hahaha oh well, my interests change on the wings of the wind (wings of the wind = what the grumps are uploading)

No one asked for this but I'm about to ramble about their designs LMAO
Rose:
-the biggest thing is that her dress is made up of flowers
-the fabric thing underneath is green as a nod to the lush cave under spawn/near spawn where she lives
-a thing I can't really properly draw out but like to imagine is that her dress sort of ripples when she walks, so it kinda blends in to the ground underneath her. Same thing with her hair, the strands kinda reflect the color of the sky
Blaze Empress:
-shes shaped like an explosion!!!
-the shawl is based on smoke and the dress itself on lava
-her hair is based on protective hairstyles and magma rock that start out cooler at the roots and grow hotter and more liquid the longer down
-purple eyes for nether portal
Ocean overlord:
-dude is just. Made out of water
-a bunch of people joked about him looking like Wilbur lol but I just wanted him to look like a teenager, and vaguely androgynous
-he's got like sea foam at the ends of his hair so it sorta flops over his eyes
Ender King:
-if you look closely, there are stars near the bottom of his cape/body
-there are streaks/cracks on his arms to mimic crying obsidian
-horns to reference the ender dragon
-he's got a similar cape/shawl thing to blaze cause I like to think they both got it from rose, spun out of clouds (siblings hc) so despite everything, he's still kept it

OKAY YALL. jim totally has movie nights/show watching nights with bones and spock (jim's captain's quarters have this big retractable screen meant for conference calls or viewing ship logs but obviously it also effectively doubles as a giant tv screen!!) and it basically turns into sleepover night where they have fun doing the fun kiddy shit they deserve (after bones and jim nearly started brawling after jim wiped the floor at monopoly via "underhanded GODDAMN tactics" according to bones, spock has made a note never to attempt to bring up monopoly on movie nights EVER AGAIN)
but also consider: pre-slash spones watching a show and arguing about favourite characters ("Your parameters for selecting a 'favourite character' are most illogical, Doctor." "Favouritism is favouritism, Spock! I couldn't give a rat's ass about goddamned logic!") but agreeing that their favourite chars would make a great couple ("It would be illogical to deny the high compatibility of these characters. One might be inclined to infer that their opposing characteristics may in fact be complementary and hence conducive to an optimal relationship." "By God, just say that ya think they look good together, Spock!") EXCEPT THEIR FAVOURITE CHARACTERS ARE BASICALLY THEMSELVES RESPECTIVELY lmao
jim is sitting next to them on the couch watching them argue shaking his head like it is So obvious ya doofuses GET TOGETHER ALREADY
until this new character (extremely jim-coded) is introduced in the next season who has shockingly intense chemistry with each of the bones/spock coded chars individually. Which starts a whole ship war between bones and spock, who, ironically, ship the other's character with the new one, and go ham on trying to prove (quoting scenes, acting choices, prop choices, even theorising about behind-the-scenes agendas) that they're right about their ship. jim thinks it's absolutely fucking hilarious seeing his best friends come extremely close to duking it the fuck out on his couch over FICTIONAL CHARACTERS, GUYS, COME ON. all the while bones and spock are losing their fucking minds because occasionally their own favourite characters will have Moments and they'll go insane trying to figure out which ship is definitively endgame. they have a bet going that whoever has their ship sunk will have to hand over a quarter of their lab time to the victor and act as assistant while the other uses the time to work on their own experiments.
jim thinks it's the funniest thing he's ever seen- UNTIL ON THE LAST EPISODE OF THE SEASON ALL THREE CHARACTERS GET TOGETHER. jim (who has Known how much the character dynamics reflected the triumvirate themselves all along) is completely fucking speechless and has a huuuuge epiphany about his own feelings for spock and bones. meanwhile bones (speechless with pure unfettered rage both at the fact that technically he was wrong but also HOW COULD HE NOT HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE???) and spock (kicking himself mentally for not having considered this possibility previously) are about to argue (all while jim is spiralling lmfao) when the bones-coded character says something like "huh. I guess we were so focused on trying to pair up that we forgot we worked best together as a trio." and bones starts to Get It, and then spock also starts to Get It, and they turn to jim, who gets that they Get It, and begins to giggle hysterically, and it is so contagious that bones starts to die of laughter and even spock cracks a chuckle.
Later, when they're all lying in jim's giant bed sleepy and happy and satisfied, cuddled together and cozy as hell, jim tells them that he's sorta known they (spones) would get together like in the show all along but he doesn't know how he didn't figure out where he came into the equation until now when it was so obvious!! and bones tells him he thinks he had always loved jim and spock but for some reason it took months and months of ship wars to see it (lol) which he's definitely glad for despite the high blood pressure every time he and spock would argue. and spock presses a kiss to the corner of jim's mouth and two fingers to bones' own, and whispers that for once, he agrees fully with leonard on the matters of their new favourite ship. jim doesn't think he's ever grinned that wide in his entire fucking life.
