Hey since that anon already started me on the idea im just going to say this

Nothing makes me want to turn all my skin inside out more then those little clips of the dteam seeing/talking about Quackity and they still look/talk so fondly of him

[asherlockstudy]

um im just scrolling through the streamys tag and i saw your posts and i thought "oh they seem cool i wonder what the blog is like"... then i went scrolling and you mentioned link coming out??? huh??? (i haven't watched gmm in like years year years) you seem like a level headed person to ask.... link is... gay? did this happen recently??? i am so confused but i know that if i google im gonna get garbage results. so yeah

Hello! Sorry for the late reply, hope you get to see this.

The answer is... yes and no. While there isn't anything explicit / certain / definite over all this time, it seems there is some restlessness on their side, with several projects such as their recent scripted videos, but also as far back as Hazel, the GMEs and Ear Biscuits that point towards the possibility of them taking a very slow, long way towards this direction, especially Link. In fact it seems like Link can't stand being in the closet anymore but Rhett dreads leaving it. That's my general impression.

While I might be considered the most stark supporter of this theory around here (or at least the one who verbalizes it the most), a few days ago more people started considering it thanks to a moment during GME where Link did something very close to a coming-out.

In case you haven't watched any of the GMEs, GME (Good Mythical Evening) is a paid live show they do once a year, which is like the strictly adult version of GMM. There, strong references to sex are allowed and they also drink enough to get inebriated and foul language is also allowed to some degree.

All that on its own would be already a lot to consider, but GME has also strong homoerotic traits since Rhett and Link play a lot with their ship there. Last year, they re-enacted rhink fics where they were having sex (basically handjobs?), I don't remember exactly. And they acted LIKE they were doing it. This year, they took it up a notch and Rhett actually sucked Link's nipple, among other things. And I mean, he really did it. For a few seconds. But he did it...properly. Don't ask me why they do this stuff. I don't know. I think nobody knows. I am just presenting you the facts so I can give you an idea about what is going on.

So, during a game in this latest GME, this dialogue took place regarding what the act of "docking" is:

Rhett: I was right! It is a gay thing! Stevie: Whaaat? I mean, well, Link also agreed with your answer so... Rhett: We both get points! Hold on, though... one guy needs to be circumcised. Link: Yeah you only need one circumcision for docking. Stevie: Oh you're asking ME? Rhett: I think..... I don't know a lot about this but I think only one guy needs to be uncircumcised. Link: Do you think docking actually happens? Because I don't think docking increases pleasure. Rhett: I don't know, man. I can't do it, man. My parents didn't give me a choice. They just circumcised me, man. Link: I know, but even after you're circumcised, you can try. Rhett: With someone who's not circumcised...... And also, I am not gay. Link: Hey, that's okay. It's okay. Rhett: Yeah, I mean, it's cool to not be gay! Link: No, it's not "cool"- Rhett: No, it's "okay" to not be gay! By "cool" I meant it is "okay" to not be gay! Link: But just go ahead and explain yourself completely. Rhett: But I might do it for scientific purposes! Link: This is what I wish you would do when I say something stupid. Rhett: If they needed to figure it out, if two scientists wanted to figure out whether two guys need to be uncircumcised, I'd be like "okay", I mean, I'd check with my wife first. Link: Yeah, but just say it is equally cool to be gay. Rhett: It is cool to be whatever you wanna be. Link: Yeah. Exactly. It's cool to be whatever you need, you want to be, you are. It's cool to be who you are. That's what I am deriving. Rhett: Yeah, that's the coolest you can be, to just be who you are. Right, Stevie? Link: I, you know what, I feel like, Stevie, I feel like I have been on a journey. Stevie: Okay. Rhett: Yeah. Link: To know- to figure out who I am. Rhett (mutters): Yeah, yeah, right. Link: And it's extremely rewarding, challenging and- Rhett: But we won't be docking later... Link: And..... rewarding. And we wanna- Yeah... can you... I was saying something important. Rhett: Because we're both circumcised. Link: Yes, but we are not gonna be docking later. Rhett: Right, because we're both circumcised. Link: But you can be circumcised and still have enough of a skin left after the circumcision to dock... In Good Mythical More we are gonna answer questions from the crew and we 're gonna have conversations about - (meanwhile Rhett talks simultaneously and almost over him about unimportant docking musings) Link: ...Right, so if you are not gonna come to Good Mythical More, please you can still get a ticket, join us for Good Mythical More, but for now we're gonna move on. Rhett (sarcastically): Don't you want more of this? Link: In the More. Stevie moves on with the game.

So, what happens next, Link also had two-three more moments when he seemed to consider talking about something and Rhett explicitly told him "Whatever it is you want to say, just keep it to yourself" and also in another moment "You can tell your Uber driver on your way home but not here".

During the More, at which Link hinted, there was a red box with nosy questions asked from the crew. Rhett was the one taking the questions and reading them. He chose to not read loudly and thus answer at least two questions, even though he pulled them out of the box.

Link eventually did not make any more similar statements.

You should also know that a couple of weeks ago, during the GME promo, Link had said that one reason we should watch the GME show was that he might even make an emotional speech before its end.

Another thing, the last months Link has also expressed in interviews and even in a college graduation that it is important to find who you are and explore your identity, addressing this especially to young adults. He always seems emotionally charged when he does it.

That's it. To me it just seems like there's one explanation only, but I will leave you to your own conclusions.

And one last detail. Rhett did everything in his power to not let Link finish what he started - almost bullied him out of it. Despite all that, notice what he said. While Link was trying to say whatever he was trying to say, Rhett said:

But we're not gonna be docking later.................. because we're both circumcised.

And he repeated the explanation once more.

Omg yeeeees, tell us your thoughts and opinions on the Tom Ward interview! I neeeeeeed to know.

Im going to put my opinions behind a cut because quite honestly, im going to get in trouble for something in here im sure.

So remember...opinions.

Ok, so to start, the first thing I thought was interesting about this interview was that they reached out to Tom Ward and asked to be interviewed by him.

Now, I don't know when they filmed this, but it was definitely after the controversies started, so this was definitely their way of sort of getting out there and letting a respectful debunker have a crack at them.

+1 for that. Smart move.

Now, before we even get into the Cody and Satori stuff...editing.

Are we allowed to talk about it, or shall I skip over the part where Colby explained their process as: "I'll take all the footage and cut it down, and then basically give it to another main channel main editor that we have that will do all the music, effects and all the texts and all that stuff, and then Sam kind of corrects that and manages that as well?"

😉

MOVING ON to the meat of this whole thing: snc addressing the controversy at hand.

I have to give snc props for the way they handled all of this. They came across so open and not offended by any of the questions, and did exactly what I thought they should do. They gave their opinions as best they could, while repeatedly stating, "You'll have to ask Cody and Satori that," which YES. GOD. My whole problem with this thing (besides the vitriol) this whole time has been people coming after the wrong target.

So yea, snc tried their best to debunk everything, and they couldn't. When they saw some of the stuff about Cody's past coming out, they reached out to him for clarification and he gave them an answer that they repeated. Anything farther than that is on Cody and Satori to talk about from here on out.

Hopefully, this message finally gets through some thick fucking skulls out there.

Anyway, them being open and honest about certain things - like how yes, all their info is online and, in theory, could be looked up beforehand and used against them, and yes, they did sign waivers beforehand (but on the day of) and yes, they did find some of rhe stuff that came out after to be really weird and concerning (like the Fox Sisters being frauds, or Cody's 11 year old video) really helps show that they are genuine, and just kind of along for this ride with everyone else.

There were a few things that they said that I found interesting, like the fact that the Conjuring House makes them hand over the videos prior to them being posted for a watch-througj for accuracy, and that the secret message that they were told could possibly be shared some day but they have to clear it with certain people and be respectful of peoples' privacy.

I also found the Zumiez thing hilarious for 2 reasons: 1) I legit did not know there were still Zumiez out there, and 2) Sam stated at one point that this was their first brick and mortar merch line but they had merch in Hot Topic stores back in 2019 so...wtf Sam lol.

Also, why did Colby look like he had just woken up from the best weekend nap ever? Hair all flattened down, wearing what I honestly thought was a bathrobe for the entire interview (turna out it was a jacket but ive never exactly had eyes like a hawk so whatever)...dude looked like I look on every 9am conference call I ever got forced onto.

Anyway, I give them props for this. They were charming, genuine, open, not on the defensive at all, and threw absolutely nobody under the bus, while at the same time clearing their names of any wrongdoing in this matter. They utterly charmed Tom by the end, and judging from the comments, did charm a lot of people who were on the fence about them as well.

They're never going to win everyone over, but I think doing this interview at least helped to prove that they aren't about to start getting into the scripted series category of the streamys anytime soon.

Don't ask why I wrote this (thoughts on the latest Ear biscuit)

It's been a good while since I've written down my thoughts on an Ear biscuit episode. I can tell you, there are probably dozens of unfinished drafts saved on my tumblr. I'm determined to post this one - if that doesn't happen, hi, me, from the future, trying to cypher why this text never got posted.

This was the rpisode after Good Mythical Evening, and, as we learn from Link, Rhett is still sick, but I think it's safe to say he's not premused quite as dead as he was during the Streamys anymore. Because of all of my neuroses, I've been genuinely worried for a few days, but I guess it's okay to breathe again.

So, Link was doing the podcast with Jenna, and I have to say, this was an excellent episode. The past few times when Jenna had been on the podcast with both Rhett and Link, the dynamic has been a little off, more confrontational with Rhett and Jenna teaming up "against" Link (which of course is not really the case, but because I tend to see things more like Link than Rhett, I'm often rooting for him). This episode, Link and Jenna have a great discussion as complete equals, and it is really enjoyable.

First, Link and Jenna go through GME and the Streamys, and sounds like they are both proud of Link's performances on both occations. It seems Rhett was pretty sick on the night of GME already. I hope GME 4 happens next year, not just because I've loved every show thus far, but so they get a chance to do one with both guys not sick, and with the technical stuff going as planned.

My heart kinda melted, when Link said he was missing "his dude" at the Streamys, and turns out he had talked about what to say on stage with Rhett. The way he presented Mr Beast's award was epic, but apparently, had they won Show of the Year, something even better would have happened. Next year, maybe.

So, the majority of this episode is dedicated to a solo camping trip Link made (with Jasper) during their summer break. He compares notes with Jenna on why they both enjoy solo travels, and talk about things you gotta do to stay safe while staying in the wilderness alone.

The reason I ended up writing my thoughts about this episode, in particular, is that listening to Link and Jenna talk about how freeing solitude is. I got envious.

The reason I've been so absent from Tumblr and everything else is that with my parents getting older, a lot of my time these days involves me doing things for them. My dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's last year, and he no longer has his driver's licence. My mom has had some pretty major health scares in the past year, and it's near a miracle she is currently alive and actually physically functional. As if these things weren't enough, my sister was diagnosed with cancer, went through surgery, chemo and radiation therapy in the past year, too. She is doing better, now, but with my parents and my sister all struggling, I've suddenly ended up being very necessary. And that means, the most time I've had for myself in the past few months has been two days at most, but usually, not a day goes by without someone needing my help. And, I could really use a solo trip right about now.

Link talked about how being alone gave him a sense of being fully in control, and that made him happy. And for Jenna, solitude meant freedom. I can relate to both of these feelings. I've never really been able to be truly myself when other people are around, and it can be really suffocating. For me, it took a world wide pandemic to figure out that I actually like being me, but the problems, the anxiety and stress, emerge when I'm expected to interact with other people. As much control as I have over my own existence, I can't control other people. I've tried, doesn't work.

I csn't wait to see the video version of this episode on Wednesday. Link showed Jrnna a video he had made while watching the sunset with Jasper. I'm not religious, nor particularly spiritual, but if I ever feel connrcted with the universe, it's when I'm in the wild, surrounded by the beauty of nature. One August night this summer, I sat in the dark, staring at the sky, searching for shooting stars. I was alone at that time, apart from a million mosquitoes eating my ankles, and at the same time, I felt free, yet not lonely. And then I heard something crack in the dark, and, because I was in my garden, I calmly stood up and walked inside.

So, yeah, after sll of this nonsensical rambling, what did I actually want to say? Enjoy the little moments in life, alone or with someone you love. If you can, go on a solo trip - and if that is not an option, go outside, look at the stars and breathe. And even if this text probably isn't the best ad for this Ear biscuits episode, listen to it.

I’m not trying to defend Sam, I’m just saying that we don’t know what their dynamic is. Maybe Colby is ok with it? And we don’t know when Sam hired the editor. He could of done it while Colby was going through treatment and he was caring for him. If he had to do cold capping on Colby every 30 minutes, he wouldn’t be able to edit or edit much.

Unless Colby has said it’s unfair and doesn’t think it’s right, we don’t really k ow how he’s feeling.

this is long so i'm gonna put it under a "keep reading"

i think colby's fine with the arrangement assumingly, i'm just saying i don't think it's right lol

sam hired the editor last yearish, possibly the very beginning of this year before colby's cancer stuff. and i just went thru the two videos they posted during the time colby was about to go into chemo treatment and right after the chemo treatment was over. the first video has snc as the main editors, and then an assistant editor. then the next video is all three of them as editors. so clearly that means that even when colby was going thru treatment he was still editing.

this doesn't even count colby also edits all the exclusive content that gets posted on xplrclub. since he cuts the footage, he's the one that makes the videos on xplrclub of the deleted footage that didn't make the main channel video. and he even said this himself a while ago on xplrclub in a podcast or livestream.

it's hard to know if sam did any actual editing on these videos bc he's credited regardless of whether or not he actually worked on the video. it always says snc as editors. and at the very least we know colby did edit since his job from the get go is to cut footage.

i'm not saying sam doesn't edit at all anymore. what i'm saying is he literally wrote out a 20 page guideline on how to do his job, found someone to do it, and since has basically been a producer for the content rather than an actual editor. is it possible he's helping out here and there? yes. i'm not saying that isn't the case. but from colby's own mouth, sam doesn't physically cut or add anything to the videos himself. he gives notes. that's a direct quote from colby who had sam next to him who nodded and agreed. and if you want to say that sam is probably doing other work stuff, that's true. but so is colby. colby is putting in 12 hour shifts of editing when he can, and then going to the streamys or going to meetings or whatever else random business shit they have going on.

we can go back and forth on whether or not we know the whole story and i get that we don't but from what we do know, what snc have shared with us, is this: colby cuts the footage, it gets sent to someone else, sam gives notes, it gets sent back to the editor who fixes it, sam gives final notes, and then it gets posted.

if you think that is an even split, then we are on completely different pages and i'm not here to argue in circles over this. sam is in the wrong for calling himself an editor when that is not what he does, according to their own wording, anymore. fans giving credit to him, and him taking credit himself, is wrong to me. regardless of this whole timeline, the one thing that is for certain is that colby edits. no matter if he's sick or not, he still edits. he still cuts and watches hours of footage. sam doesn't and hasn't done that. and no longer does the part he used to do.

[i-am-beckyu]

So true so true thats such a karl thing to do

SAM AND COLBY GOT A STREAMY EEE M SO HAPPY FOR THEM

oh yeah I forgot the streamys were a thing lol

I am so out of the loop lately with what's been going on. Been hyper fixated in party stuff and getting that fic done!

(I legit just wanna post something but perfectionismmmm. and lol yes I know it's fine and I'm justified I just wanna complain lol)

But lets gooooo for sam and colby!!! Huge!

[dreamingofthedteam]

they are literally buzzfeed unsolved

jean does not believe in ghosts. marco very much does and says his Catholic Prayers at least thrice in each video

jean twerked for annabelle and she threatened to brutally kill both of them

marcos super respectful and is always like "the dress you have in this picture is just lovely" and jeans like "first of all...youuurrreee nothing but a trashy hoe." and then gets surprised when the ghost targets him

marco fell through a haunted bar's roof and started singing "the lord is my shepherd" and jean stopped himself mid rescue to laugh

a rumor got started that marco was actually dead and a ghost and there is now a national funeral day for marco in the "Jean & Marco V.S. The Paranormal" fandom

Hange: "Science Rulez"

an account purely for middle school science teachers

theyre an actual scientist not just a youtuber but on their off days because they love their job so much they'll do tiny little videos

they are VERY passionate about teaching biology in schools

moblit is their begrudging camera and light man because he just wants to be able to go on vacation with them on their time off

hange covers EVERYTHING from astronomy to fucking quantum physics and always gets comments about how they changed students whole grades and they ALWAYS respond and/or like

[notoriouslydevious]

About your post about rell, there is a problem there, cause yeah Viego is more popular but Rell is more popular than olaf and Taliyah and taliyah was leaked to be part of Viego's band and Olaf, well... it's weird because even if Rell wasn't more popular than them she's still the "Iron Maiden" and has a direct conection to mordekaiser and she's not even a bad champion, shes a great tank if anything her ult and dismounted form need a change, i hope she gets a mini rework or at least a big buff if popularity is more important to them than the lore which tbh if the ruined king event is anything to go by we already know it's

It depends on where you look, if you look at OP.GG Olaf's pickrate makes him 137 out of 156 champs and Rell is at (she went up 6 spots) 141 out of 156. If you look at league of graphs, her pickrate is 2.7% and Olaf's is 2.3% HOWEVER Olaf was already in Pentakill. Wouldn't make sense if they just dropped him and added Rell. Also I'm digging through Reddit to see where it was leaked that Taliyah was in Viego's band...

Like I'm seeing his splash where people think they see Aatrox, Sion or Voli and two other people they dont know, but nothing about Taliyah. Oooooooooooh.... if you meant this

Gotta watch out for them notepad skinleaks with no sources... A lot of them are not accurate and complete BS made up by trolls to get people excited over skins that are never going to release. I've only seen ONE of these actually be true and this was back when Streamie, a Portuguese streamer, had someone inside Riot leaking her stuff. She leaked Lillia, Yone, the Spirit Blossom event, Samira, Psy Ops Sona, Seraphine, Battle Academia Caitlyn and Space Groove Blitzcrank. She no longer does leaks or streams as far as I know (I feel like her inside intel finally got caught). If you look at her youtube channel all of her videos have been either unlisted, privated or deleted. Who knows, this could be one of the really rare cases where this skin leak is actually correct but I highly doubt it. Like it'd be Taliyah's first non-blue skin, which Taliyah mains would be extremely excited about (omg... what if her ult was like.. her crowd surfing??) That'd be so fucking cool. I've honestly been holding out for Star Guardian Taliyah but there's not going to be any Star Guardian skins this year :'c Hopefully next year!~ ♥ Dude... Star Guardian Rell- where she like rides a pegasus or unicorn????? Ok- im getting really distracted. (but yea, pls dont believe notepad "skin leaks." 9 times out of 10 they're usually fake).

Babysitter - David Dobrik (2)

merry christmas to you because i’ve decided to make this a little series! happy holidays y’all, keep the feedback coming

PART ONE

I manage to get the girls fed and ready for the day without crossing David again. I think he’s taking a shower to get ready for the day. We have lots of things planned before going to the Streamys tonight.

“Wait, you’re kidding me, right?” Natalie huffs.

“What? Isn’t L.A going to be the best place to go shopping anyway?”

Natalie rolls her eyes, obviously upset that I put off buying a dress until the day of. I usually don’t procrastinate too much, but it was too hard to decipher between what was too dressy and too casual.

“Is there not a place we can go?”

“Yeah, I want to go shopping anyway.” Ester smiles. If I know that both of these girls are always down for shopping.

Natalie picks up her phone to move some things around and trying to figure out where to find a dress.

“Yeah, we can go right now. I’ll go check and see if David wants to come with. I know he needs to film soon.”

She disappears to go ask him, I’m glad she didn’t make me do it. David and I almost kissed. I’ve wanted that on and off for years, but now that it’s almost happened, I’m scared. How am I supposed to act around him now? What is supposed to come out of this?

“David is going to drop us off.” Natalie announces.

“Great.” I smile.

Right after that we all leave, piling into the Tesla. I look out the window as I watch the palm trees pass by. It’s December and it’s easily twice the temperature outside of back home in Chicago. It’s nice and relaxing, no scraping ice off of your car.

“-Y/n!”

“What?” I ask, suddenly turning, I hadn’t realized anyone was trying to grab my attention.

“I asked, what kind of dress are you getting?” Sara repeats.

I smile and turn a little in my seat to look at her. I love that these girls are still young enough to care about what I like and that they give me opinions. When they grow up I’m going to be crushed.

“I’m not sure yet. I haven’t a clue!”

“You should wear something blue, with glitter!” Sara decides.

“No way, that sounds so ugly!” Ester turns to argue with her sister. I bite back a smile listening to them argue back and forth over what in their young opinion is a beautiful dress. They only have a year and a half age difference, but they’re night and day sometimes.

“Wear red.” David’s voice suddenly grabs all of our attention.

“Red?” I ask, looking to see him in his rearview mirror. It’s the first time we’ve really exchanged words since this morning.

“Yeah, your prom dress was red. You look best in red.”

“Thanks.”

Natalie, thankfully, doesn’t comment on the awkward tension. Normally, I wouldn’t be so quiet towards a compliment. I can tell she’s picking up on it by the way she’s watching David from her side eye.

Eventually we make it the mall, David drops us off. He’s going to be back soon, he just needs to film a bit with Josh Peck who doesn’t live far away and then he’ll be back to pick us up.

“So, what’s going on with you and David?” Natalie asks. We’re both following the girls, they’re a distance away so they can’t hear us.

“What do you mean?” I play coy, I know that I won’t be able to get much past her. I’ve never been able to. There’s something about her being like a big sister in that sense.

“Don’t even pretend. You guys slept together last night, plus I saw you guys this morning. If I had known what I was walking into, I wouldn’t have barged in.” She grins. I know she’s loving this moment too much, she’s been rooting for this since they were juniors.

“Y/n, can we go in here?” Ester asks, pointing at a store I know they like shopping at.

“Saved by the bell.”

The girls both have a very successful shopping trip. They both pick out lots of clothes, I’m not even sure it’ll fit in their suitcases to come home. I on the other hand, haven’t come across a single dress that’ll work for the occasion. Or if one is okay, one of the girls vetoes it.

“Alright, this is the last one. After this, I’m going in jeans.” I yell as the woman helps me into the black dress. This one is different from the others that I’ve tried on today. It’s tighter, hugging me where it’s most flattering. As soon as I look in the mirror on the wall, I grin.

“Get out here already!” Sara yells, getting impatient.

“I’m coming, I’m coming.” I laugh, opening the door and walking out to them.

All of them have stunned look on their face.

“Wow, that bad?” I tease.

All three of them jump in with a chorus of flattery. Each girl claiming to love it, stating it’s perfect.

“Would you like me to bag this dress up for you?” The saleswoman comes up to me, seeing that it’s been approved.

“Yeah, actually, I have one question though.”

She nods for me to continue, a small smile on her face.

“By any chance does this come in red?”

David picks us up shortly after that, it worked out in perfect timing that he had just finished filming when Natalie called.

“I’m guessing by the bags, it was a successful trip?” He asks as he pulls out of the parking lot and turns to head home.

“Yeah, you should see all of the stuff we got!” Sara yells excitedly, “You should see Y/n’s dress!”

“Shh, it’s a surprise!” I grin.

“Really?” David smiles, “So you found something good?”

I nod and we drive the rest of the way home. When we get there, there’s already a few members of the group just hanging out there. The awards aren’t for a few hours still. We all have lunch and David dives into editing.

“Is he always like this when he’s editing?” I ask, nodding to David whose been completely focused on his laptop for the past half hour.

“Oh, yeah.” Zane answers, “This isn’t even bad, he only needs to add what he filmed today to post. He edited like all of yesterday before you guys got here.”

“Wow.” I shake my head in disbelief.

Pretty quickly after that, David’s posts. He slams his laptop shut and cheers at being done before going to his room.

“Y/n, you made the vlog!” Todd cheers from the couch.

“What?” I look up.

He turns his phone so I can see the clip, David filmed his sisters and I when we showed up at the airport and there’s a few jokes I made last night when we were all hanging out. I didn’t even notice that he was filming last night.

“First vlog appearance.” I smile.

“No way!” Jason argues. “You’ve been around David since he started his channel.”

“Yeah, but usually I’m with his whole family and they don’t like being filmed.” I explain. “Plus, when David and I hang out back home it’s usually not anything too crazy. Not vlog worthy I guess.”

“Congratulations on the first vlog.” Erin jokes, “It gets old.”

We all hang out and chill a little while longer before the girls both ask me to curl their hair. I also let them wear mascara with the promise that they won’t tell their mom when we get home.

“Y/n, are you ready?” Natalie asks as she walks by the bedroom. I’ve managed to complete my makeup and do my hair between helping the girls.

“Almost. I just need to get dressed.” I leave the girls to put on their shoes, I go into Nat’s room where my dress is hanging. I slip it on and grin, something about this dress makes my confidence shoot through the roof.

“Nat!” I yell as loudly as I can, hoping to grab her attention over the loud music. I yell it a few more times with no success. I can’t reach my zipper all of the way, it’s stuck and I can’t reach the spot at all.

“Y/n?” David’s voice asks as he knocks softly on the door. “Did you need something? Nat’s taking pictures.”

“Ugh yeah.” I groan and let out a humorless laugh, “Can you help me?”

He lets himself in, his face goes blank once he’s taken in my appearance. Hopefully it’s a good surprise?

“Can you zip this?” I ask as I turn around, I don’t want him to catch the blush rising to my cheeks.

“Umm, yeah.” He clears his throat a couple of times. Suddenly I can feel his hand on my exposed shoulder as he holds me steady. His other hand goes to the zipper. His thumb brushes along my spine the whole way.

“Alright, you’re good.” David clears his throat one more time, I can tell he hasn’t taken a step back though.

“Thank you, Dave.”  I turn around finally.

It looks like he was as flustered by the situation as I was, his cheeks pink too.

“So, what do you think?” My voice is practically a whisper as I gesture to down to my dress, “I took your advice.”

Here we are, dancing along the line of friendship again.

“The red looks stunning.” His eyes scan over the dress, over my body, before he returns the eye contact, “You look stunning, Y/n.”

“Thank you.” I smile, leaning my head up towards him.

What am I doing?

David slowly, looking between my eyes and my lips, leans down to connect our lips. After all these years, we’re finally kissing. My hands thread through his curls, his hands grip down on my hips.

“Y/n?” Natalie asks, knocking loudly.

David and I both push away from each other just in time for her to open the door.

“I just wanted to see how it was going. We’re leaving in like ten.” She smiles and I silently thank her for not commenting on what she’s walked into. “David you have a little something.”

She gestures to his lips before pulling the door shut.

“We should probably get going?” David smiles, turning around to look at me.

I nod to agree, “Wait!” Natalie wasn’t kidding, he has gloss smeared on his lips. I make my best attempt to fix it. David runs his hand through his hair a few times trying to get it to settle.

“Y/n!” Sara cheers, seeing I’m finally ready and out in the living room with everyone else.

“Oh my god, Y/n! You look gorgeous!” Carly compliments.

“Hot!” Zane chants making me roll my eyes.

I make my way over to the girls sitting at the table, we still have a few minutes until we leave. I baske in their compliments, giving them both compliments back. I think the girls are more in awe of seeing me in formal wear for the first time.

“Smile!” I cheese, making the girls lean in to take a selfie with me.

“I wish my mom would let us have instagram.” Ester rolls her eyes seeing me post it to my story.

“You’re both too young still, trust me, you’ll be glad later when old pictures don’t end up on the internet. Especially when you have a famous brother.” I whisper the last part making both girls laugh. It’s crazy that they’re already thinking about social media. Both girls are still so little, Ester’s not even to the eighth yet.

“Alright, let’s head out!” Natalie leads, everyone in the house files out to all the cars we’re taking.

“Ready?” David asks, somehow we ended up being the last two to leave.

“Let’s go.” I grin

they finally kissed! ahhh

Okay now that I've absolutely blazed a trail of Charon reblogs lol I think I might head off again. Alas, I'm remembering all the ways this site got super clunky and hard to use, and it seems even more wild stuff has happened since I left...

So umm yeah!

It was a real nice blast from the past to see you all, and I'm sorry for never being around...

I'm not sure if anyone still wants to keep in touch, but here are websites I'm on nowadays:

Twitter: https://mobile.twitter.com/twumblunni

My primary blogging home nowadays! I usually post about Dr Snap who is my newest Mad Science Gremp Fave, but man I'm getting back on a Charon nostalgia kick now there's the potential of sinnoh remakes again!!!

YouTube: https://youtube.com/user/RedLeicesterRL

Where I post extremely infrequent random grempy shitpost vids, miscellany about learning game hacking, stream highlights, etc.

Oh and

Twitch: https://m.twitch.tv/bunni89wastaken/

I do let's play streamy thingys now! Pretty infrequent with no set schedule cos I'm anxious AF and not very confident in my skills, but I'm trying to work harder to be more active nowadays. Current playthroughs are Suikoden Tierkreis and 999!

Umm I'm not sure how to end this, so here have a little doodle of Dr Snapped!

And thank you so so much to everyone who's ever been my friend and supported me on this site, I appreciate your kindness absolutely utterly!

I know that the odds of Charon ever actually reappearing in a Pokémon game are super low, so instead I shall hope that tomorrow's news brings something that will make all of you guys happy instead! :D

whats this stuff abt dream cheating on his speedrun im so confused

Aight so here’s a basic rundown:

So Dream has had some issues with the speedrun board of mods and stuff who validate runs before, even to the point where he decided to stop streaming speedruns on his Twitch because people throwing shade onto his runs was becoming frustrating.

Apparently today one of the main mods for that board uploaded an analysis of one of his submitted runs done before he stopped speedrunning live. It would have been a 16th place run at the time on the official board of it got approved, so not an overly huge placement.

Apparently the dude was working on this analysis for like two months. It provided some stats that he believed were indicative of some sort of mod that allowed Dream to cheat with certain mob drops, like blaze rods and ender pearl trades. He stated that it was incredibly unlikely these statistics aligned with even the 99th percentile possibility of things and compared some other runners’ probabilities to his own.

Dream made a tweet about it, clearly upset with the way that his 16th place run was being invalidated after two months of it going under suspicion. There’s been an ongoing trend where Dream’s name gets used in a lot of videos for clicks, so he felt as if that was a similar situation here. Mr. Beast, Karl, I believe TapL, and some others commented saying that the situation was definitely fishy and not fair to the work Dream puts in to complete his runs. Enter conflicting arguments in the below comments. You know how it is

Personally I don’t want to make any sort of accusation on either side, although I do agree with Dream here that the timing and everything of the analysis publication is a little...odd. Right before MCC and the Streamys, where Dream’s name would be circling already?? Holding onto the analysis and then posting - I believe without the input of the rest of the speedrunning board people - right now is a bit convenient, but idk. And for a 16th place run? Why would he go through the trouble of trying to find ways around the system if it’s not even a top 10 placement lol? He’s a member of the analysis team tho, so I mean it’s his job to look over stuff which I understand. It was just weird timing.

Should Dream have brought up the specific channel name of the guy who did the vid analysis in his tweet?? Mm, probably not. But then again, he’s had similar situations where people have outright accused him even when he’s been trying different seeds for hours on stream, so I can understand the frustration and I don’t think he meant to send like a hoarde of people over there to just ridicule the analysis.

Don’t worry too much about it tho cause to me it seems pretty minimal of a situation!! Dream still has an official 5th place run spot as well, and it looks as if there’s gonna be a discussion about it (apparently some of the other board mods are kinda thinking about leaving or smth) and a formal response from the blobby man himself, so honestly I think it’ll turn out fine. With all the times I’ve watched Dream’s speedrun streams and stuff, I really do trust that he’s being truthful here, yet then again the analysis creator has a right to counter as it’s kinda his job.

Ta-daa, that was a lot to type lmao — hope this helps with context!!
