Angeal and Gen both feel like monsters and they’re going crazy after defecting, but maybe they just don’t have access to their meds anymore. What no anxiety meds does to a person

SO TRUE LMAO, haha that reminds me of an old sketch I did.

I've been rereading the fic Permission Slip as of late. And it got me thinking:

What would your reaction be if someone made an actual FNAF:SB mod based off of your fic?

lnjdfljgdljk

Realistically, I don't think that's possible XD Since so many mechanics would have to be changed that you'd end up p much making a new game with SB's assets. Just turning Freddy's model into Sun wouldn't really be enough-- can you imagine trying to hide inside the DCA? XDDD

But putting logistics aside-- aaaaa that would be super cool??? Like! That's another level of fanart right there, isn't it! Going 'yeah i liked the story i read so much i wanted to play it'. I'm so bad at knowing what to do when people do nice things that I don't rightly KNOW what my reaction would be other than a lot of yelling.

And I'd play it, of course. Haven't played SB myself, but I'd absolutely play a mod of my story, no question.

Do you have some more modern!pruaus headcanons? And if yes would you want to share them? 🙏🙏

omg yes girl I got u

MODERN PRUAUS OKAY, while I gather myself to go get a pizza and cure my hangover,

They don't live together. They do long stays with each other on and off. They are in a nice place where they aren't arguing seriously, they are trying to be considerate and kind- they have come such a long way. I think they made it official in the 2000s but have been seeing each other since the 50s, being gentle about it. They are too old for problems. Gilbert has always been desperately in love, and gave up for a long time on Roderich and finally when he really gave gave and decided to just try and move on Roderich is like hey :) which blows Gilbert's mind.

When they spend time together, they like to go on walks, they love going out to eat, Roderich days Gilbert to the theatre which Gilbert also enjoys. Museums. They probably travel around- vacations in Greece and Croatia, drinking wine and whatever. It is relaxed.

However just because they're slow and chill doesn't mean they both aren't fucking insane. Roderich and Gilbert have been kicked out of many restaurants, Gilbert enjoys causing ruckuses still. The whole matter of them making it official Outraged basically everyone they know- Ludwig still isn't very happy with this ("after ALL THAT? AFTER HOW MANY WARS? AFTER WHAT YOU pUT ME THROUGH? AND NOW-"), many people were concerned for Roderich because Gilbert is known to be a fucking maniac. It was a lot of drama. But they held firm and told everyone to fuck off- Gilbert especially.

Sometimes the past haunts them, but both Roderich and Gilbert have made a choice to try their best to look beyond the past- really, they couldn't work without that. Gilbert is certain that this time they will make it work! And Roderich is too. They compliment each other well. They nap a lot. They're so old!

[minsharaclass]

how did you come up with your url? does it refer to anything?

its a star trek reference! in lots of the shows you'll hear characters refer to an "M class" planet, which in the star trek universe is how they refer to planets that can support life, the name came from the vulcan term Minshara which was how the vulcans called those kinds of planets

May we please have some angsty NY hc’s 🙃

uh.. yes? ofc, do you even need to ask?? lmao

anyways, prepare for the angst

— TW: 9/11, ED,abuse, and much more—

-NY was never awarded for everything he did for the economy, unlike how the others were for their own work. York still thinks about it to date on how he didn’t do a good enough job.

-was locked up a few times in a closet for lashing out on England or someone else. he has claustrophobia because of this.

-has flashbacks frequently of 9/11, the abuse, and other times he got hurt or someone got hurt because of him.

-he cares too much even if everyone thinks he doesn’t give a shit at all.

-he felt he was never just good. someone gave him the mindset that everything can be improved even if it physically hurts you. (I will kill whoever did) there’s always room for improvement, until there isn’t .

-was never chosen during sports the colonies played. he was seen as “too young”, or “too weak” to play. he sat watching them have fun while he sat by a tree.

-had an ED for a while after someone said something about his body. he still finds it hard to eat.

-had a failed love life. he could never find anyone who cared enough to stay.

-he misses people who hurt him. if they apologized, he would accept it, believing that he was in the wrong.

erm.. what the scallop?

Thoughts on Bill and Guy? (Needllero as I like to call it)

Oh yeah, there's a lot to dig into there.

It's certainly Bill's most fleshed out relationship. Not that that's saying much, but still. I think of it primarily from Bill's perspective because of course I do, but I'd like to go back and see how it fits into Guy's bigger picture as well.

What's intriguing to me - and what I'll talk about here today - is how they have two pretty distinct dynamics that don't seem to overlap.

On one hand, Bill serves as Guy's right hand man for his little schemes. This side appears in wraparounds, when they interact face to face - Moral Majority, Pledge Week, Staff Christmas Party. Then during the People's Global Golden Choice Awards, we get a twist - Bill isn't collaborating on this one, and in fact leads the dissent against it.

So, what happened there? I think Bill gives it away in how he describes Guy's motivations. He references Guy wanting "power" and "ratings", but nothing about money. I suspect that, at the end of the day, Bill's in it for the money, since that's the focus of the other schemes he’s involved with. I do find it interesting that Bill never tries to boost his own career through the schemes - maybe he does have a spine after all. Except for, y'know, all the swindling.

On the other hand, there's Guy as the tyrannical boss that's constantly suppressing Bill's freedom of speech and cancelling his shows. This is the side we see during Bill's shows - it's introduced right from the start on Mailbag, and is more implied than outright stated in Series 4, though that tension never fades away.

Bill always refers to a nebulous "they", "the station/SCTV", "management", "the powers that be", when he talks about the forces holding him down, but it's gotta just be Guy, right? Guy's seemingly the only one who ever makes decisions about programming like that. The unspecific language feels like an intentional decision on Bill’s part to separate Guy, his boss, from Guy, his partner in crime. Especially when, during Stand Up and Be Counted when Guy calls in to personally cancel the show, Bill says, not moments later, “They cancelled my show.” Maybe Bill’s just that committed to propriety, but I don’t think so.

How do we reconcile these two sides of Needllero? Well, that's where we get speculative. The way I've characterized it so far over at the Needleblog, even Bill's not quite sure where they stand. There's a lot of uncertainty and intimidation at play, although how much of that is Bill's own anxieties being left to sprawl out is left to the reader's interpretation.

Now, I don't ship it, personally, but I see the appeal. They're great for each other (make each other so silly). The dysfunction is definitely a big part of the charm. In a way, I do think Bill needs Guy - not only because he's just gotta be on TV, but also for the companionship of somebody, anybody, who can put up with him.

Also, Lola says "or even love" right as Bill turns to look at Guy, and that's just precious.

Hello again >:3 I'm curious on the thoughts behind your nepeta design!! It's so cool and I want to know how you made such a magnificent thing /evil scientist (/j) (:3)

HEHE HELL YES PETA TALK I LOVE THE NEP 💚💚‼️‼️

something i generally do to my fandom designs is give them animal parts! started with ocs and now every fandom i join HAS to have em!! and trolls were just perfect for that Σ:33

nepeta specifically came so easy to me- OFC she's just a lil kitty cat 💚 i imagine most low to midbloods having at least a lil fur or fuzz on their skin but olives are definitely most likely to be FLUFFY fluffy!! so i figured hey why not also giv em cat patterns? so lil tux nep was created and i love love love love her sssooo much

[jellybracelet]

the more unhinged someone is about John the more I know to stay away tbh, like he's such a lightning rod for the Worst people imo. And I don't even stan him or anything it's just such a quick way to get a read on someone lol

The "Fuck John Winchester" movement is so similar to the "W*ncesties, Die" movement to me. Not that they are all the same people (though there is a fat center of the venn diagram there), but because it's a bunch of people who latch onto a rhetoric that they wouldn't have unless they heard everyone else say it and decide to not form their own opinions. I know some people's trauma or daddy issues or something else might make them unable to see nuance or positive characteristics in John, but that's no way that's the case for every person who is tagging those unrelated Dean angst gifsets #fuck John Winchester.

But honestly yeah I stan him yeah I want to fuck John Winchester too I get it I get it

[mouth-dreaming]

what did you think of LD8

I'M SO EXCITED FOR IT'S RELEASE!! All of the demos sound really great and they're only just demos, so as you can see, I'm hyped for the final products!! :D

Also Mocks You is in there too! At first I didn't know how I felt about it, because I was so used to the original, but after a few listens I completely changed my mind. I think it sounds incredible, it might even be better than the original!

[wikipediafag]

[thedemonscrawler]

Your writing is wonderful! The way you handle the narration of robot characters, and said robot characters' description of their own characteristics, in a way that is similar to the human experience so that readers may sympathize with them without forcing an entirely human perspective out of them is just a beautiful thing to read. I love everything I've read from you, and I hope you enjoyed writing it just as much as I loved reading it! There are a million other things I could probably say about your characterization, and the way you look so deeply into the characters you write, but that would take forever, because your writing is great! ^-^

Aaaaaaaaa I've been opening and closing my inbox to read through this ask over and over

THANK YOU!! It's, gosh, nah I absolutely have a blast trying to really get into the mindset of robot characters and, most importantly, map out their limitations. Because like you said, I don't want an entirely human perspective-- they're not human! And them being robots is the point!

It's like... what do they know? What makes sense for them to have been programmed to know? What could they have encountered over the years and picked up? What don't they know?

And physical limitations! What do various sensations mean in a human body, and what analogues can be drawn for a machine? What might feel uncomfortable, what does 'uncomfortable' even mean? And what things don't translate-- what would a machine find horrifying that a human wouldn't, and visa versa?

Aaaaa thank you again for such a nice ask QwQ I'm glad to hear y'all are enjoying reading what I'm writing, we're in this together!

♨ : Does your muse have good table manners? How do they feel about bad table manners?

❀ : What is your muse’s opinion about flower crowns?

♬ : Does your muse sing well? Regardless of whether they sing well or not, do they enjoy singing?

📐 : Is your muse good at math? Do they like it, or do they hate it?

♞ : What is your muse’s favorite animal?

♨ : Does your muse have good table manners? How do they feel about bad table manners?

Gilbert..... has learnt table manners over the years. He is a "take your hat off at the table" and "be polite in company" sort of guy, very much an old school manners guy and will think you are fucked in the head if you use your phone at the table. However if there's more than one set of cutlery and in the presence of royalty, best just not invite him as his conversational manners are horrible imo. He is neutral about bad manners but will think you're disrespecting him personally if you do weird shit at his table haha, but he doesn't often have guests so it's not something he cares much about. He's just an old man!

❀ : What is your muse’s opinion about flower crowns?

I think he has fond memories of wearing flower crowns at old festivals and ceremonies waaaaay back in the day. Catch young Gil at a solstice ceremony covered in flowers!

♬ : Does your muse sing well? Regardless of whether they sing well or not, do they enjoy singing?

He is not....ever going to win an award for his singing but he can kind of hold a tune and knows a lot of songs especially folk songs. So while he should keep his day job, I think he does enjoy singing a lot! He sings in the shower, in the car, to annoy people and when drunk.

📐 : Is your muse good at math? Do they like it, or do they hate it?

He's fantastic at math! And he really likes math! He just gets it. Human calculator. Loves architecture

♞ : What is your muse’s favorite animal?

I think he is a big lover of dogs and he loves horses too, he enjoys training animals!

19, 21, 25 for the ask meme!

19. you're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like...

mad that i actually kind of like geten for this one!!!👇

this was so funny. he made a point and i hope he unlearns his family's fucked up bullshit. the himura reveal and discussion about their family values actually makes a lot of sense as far as why he was the only MLA leader who explicitly denigrated people with weak/unsuitable quirks (not that the others didn't, geten was just the most blunt about it). be better please, you can do it.🙏

i've also kind of come around to AFO—not that he's a well-written or morally good character or anything, but he's just kind of funny. in an arc where everyone's grimdark serious his plan is just "yes i'll blow up my minion and then have her leak a false location to the heroes and when they get there i'll blow up that location." that's one of the funniest ways to go about it, thanks dude

21. part of canon you think is overhyped

the whole storyline about the students saving the villains is massively overhyped. it's just not well-written. i don't think there's any textual evidence that any of the students have anything more than a superficial or vague notion of why the villains chose their paths, these are virtually strangers whose hearts the students intend to save.

and while no, i don't think you need to know anyone deeply in order to reach out to them, and in fact you should help strangers! but to argue that somehow you can understand them enough to know what they want "deep down" is paternalistic bullshit.

also in this case "saving," also means stopping, also means sticking them in prison, so uh. how are you saving them, buddy. if you want to stop them and put them in prison then at least be honest about it, don't dress this shit up in the language of kindness. the hypocrisy and lack of time spent actually developing a bond between heroes and villains makes the whole "saving" plot feel hollow.

25. common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing

i am the fandom complaining blog, imagine being tired of complaints...

ok but a couple years ago there was so much drama around caleb cook's translations for the manga and people often blamed him for things that may have been pushed by the publisher (as a standard for all translations they do, ex: translating yakitori as chicken skewer instead of just using 'yakitori') to more 'major' things that people argued were mistranslated or tonally too soft/too strong, among a myriad of other issues. (he only has as much information as we do, folks, translators don't have a direct line to the mangaka, so sometimes translators just have to make their own judgment call on a specific line.)

yes, sometimes the translations sound weird or janky, you might even be able to argue that some don't get the correct meaning across, but there was so much responsibility pushed onto caleb as though he was the one directing the overall progression of the manga. is it caleb cook or horikoshi's fault that the LOV don't openly declare their deep feelings towards each other?🤔

[me-beef]

@strangeravatar made a great point

i was gonna focus on the spike-hotboxing-celestia aspect but i got distracted somewhere along the way and i think i forgot what joke i was trying to make
