#that chain scene was crazy dude

[crispy-dib]

Serennedy Mini Week Day 2!!

✨Tied up✨

Seriously what the hell did he mean by that 💀

[unsteddie]

University AU

Bi-Sexual weirdo Eddie Munson approaches Robin in a gay bar. It's her first time and she's so excited. She's looking around all excited with hair she definitely cut herself, wearing a cool blazer that's she's decorated with chains and pins and stuff. And she just looks cool and fun. And listen he knows he's probably not her target demographic, but he sees her blush as he approaches.

The second she hears his voice, realizes he's not a woman, she loudly complains about being hit on by a man in a GAY bar. Prompting her friend who has been leaning against the bar getting them drinks to turn. Eddie's mid apology, because that's fair, when he sees him and just shyits right the fuck up.

Cool girl, sure whatever, this man is an angel. So he immediately switches to hitting on Steve, asks him to dance and Robin says "oh, Steves not-"

But Steve cuts her off with a quick "sure." And shoves the drinks in her hands. He leaves Robin with her mouth hanging open as he follows what is probably the prettiest person he's seen in real life to the dance floor.

(Robins fine, she uses Steve's drink to charm a very pretty girl who she dances with and has a great time that night.)

Steve doesn't even speed run his sexuality crisis, he sees it coming for him and is like 'nah, I'm fine actually. I just like pretty people and curly hair.' and the crisis pouts and moves on.

I'm thinking there's probably drama. Like Steve's all in, because he's a sweet romantic idiot. But Eddie panics and is like "you don't even know what you like in men, you can't just decide I'm it."

Which Steve totally can, but Eddie scares easy, he is the opposite of Tom Petty in this regard.

So they split up with the understanding Steves gonna date around a while and keep Eddies number. And like three months go by and Steve doesn't know if he's allowed to call yet because he hasn't managed to get past the date part to the sleeping with other people part because he doesn't like anyone as much as Eddie, but Eddie said he should try some stuff before commiting to the first man that asked him to dance.

Eddie is beating himself up because it's for sure too soon, like crazy too soon, but maybe he loves Steve? And he literally yelled at him to go sleep with other people?? Why did he do that??

I have a little scene in my head where Gareth see Steve in a club and calls Eddie like "dude, he's here, with a date. Like a really really hot date." And sitcom style shenanigans ensue with Eddie running interference on Steve's date long distance via Gareth.

Like they've been apart probably twice as long as they were kinda together and they're being so dumb about it.

So I was (jokingly) kicking this idea around in my head of Stolitz having an in-universe fan following, just because I think it would be a very funny and meta thing to have happen, but the more I thought about it the more I realized maybe it’s not such a ridiculous idea. In fact, the show has now set us up perfectly to go down this route, and here’s why:

After the trial, Stolas and Blitz are now both pretty famous and people are paying attention to them. Blitz in particular now has a lot of fans among imp-kind. So if Stolas keeps hanging around him and Blitz keeps defending him, people are going to notice.

They’re going to start wondering why Blitz is defending him when in their eyes, Stolas is the bad guy who used him for his own nefarious purposes. They basically hate Stolas on Blitz’s behalf (and on the behalf of all other imps who have been used by royals).

So, naturally, people will start to theorize.

“OMG, what if Stolas actually did that to sacrifice himself for Blitz??”

“Dude, no way! You and your conspiracy theories…”

“But they’re seen together like all the time! I heard the bird lives with him now!”

“That’s crazy. If that’s true he must have some kind of Stockholm Syndrome, poor guy.”

And you know people are suckers for a good enemies to lovers story, so, you know, that.

So they will run away with this idea that maybe there’s more to this story, people believe that they’re actually a couple and it was all for true love, people will WANT this to be true, and there you go. Stolitz.

They already did this with Fizzmodeus and I thought the scene in Mammon’s where everyone was going crazy over them on social media was hilarious.

Also, something I don’t see many people talking about is did they livestream the part where Stolas was chained up and Blitz was literally screaming for him not to do this and trying to save him? Because I feel like if they did, it would only add more fuel to the fire of the idea that they’re not getting the whole story.

Anyway, just some food for thought.

TL;DR: possibility of in-universe shipping shenanigans

• you were so pumped when you got the call confirming your role.

• on the first day of the table read, you finally got to meet your opposite co-stars, nicholas chavez and cooper koch.

• nicholas was a little bashful because he didn’t know you were gonna be a stunna’!

• it was more than just your beauty, your overall vibe was amazing.

• they were so friendly towards you and welcomed you with open arms before the reading starting.

• you studied your character with such precision and once you read the first couple of lines, everyone tuned in as if the scene was rolling in real time.

• you went in.

• you had everyone at the table sold.

• nicholas is a pro at the triangle method. (look it up!)

• you play your role so well, you even get them flustered.

• prolonged eye contact or lingering touches with you during takes results in the most funniest of bloopers, but they eventually compose themselves and get back to work.

• and the kiss scenes…

• oh my god.

• the guys live for those, but they couldn’t be so obvious. cooper did his job and simply complimented your work.

• nicholas could get really into character.

• he’s lucky he’s cute enough to eat some.

• they’re vibing to whatever playlist you have on. sza, meg, bey, kendrick, michael, whitney, prince, stevie, or usher. no matter what, they are vibing with it.

• especially old 90s and 2000s r&b.

• they enjoy watching you do your own hair or makeup. they’re impressed by your skill and how you take time to get the right look.

• it smelled like your perfume and hair products, so they were in heaven.

• they are never in their trailer except for when they were called for costumes, hair, and makeup.

• if you were taking a photo of yourself and one of them were walking by, they’re definitely jumping in.

• they like to either wrap an arm around you or like the giants they are, put their chin on your head or shoulder.

• or if you want to do a mini-shoot of yourself to post on social media, trust them to secure those photographer credits in your caption.

• you taught them the simple dance challenge to jordan adetunji’s “kehlani”.

• you giggle and point as they spin to the beat as best as they could.

• you were getting so into it that you don’t notice their stares when it’s your turn, their eyes raking your figure.

• they even joke about that the boys look so in love with you while you’re dancing in the comments.

• when you put your phone down, they’d take it and leave pictures of themselves on it.

• to finally see your characters come to fruition made this all seem like a dream for you.

• you each did solo photos. then it was you with just nicholas, you with just cooper, and finally with both.

• no matter what pose you did, their eyes lingered. the camera loves you!

• when you each posted it on social media, you all received mostly love from the fans, but of course you’re gonna have a couple of trolls in the comments. you don’t even give them the attention.

• filming had wrapped up and the night of the premiere came. you were dressed to the nine’s in your designer dress. your makeup and hair was so on point that night!

• you, nicholas, and cooper all rode together and they could not stop showering you with compliments!

• they’re such gentlemen. when you get out the car and onto the red carpet, cooper travels in front you and nicholas, behind you for safety reasons.

• when you all pose the cameras, cooper and nicholas widely grin as they each take your hand.

• there’s even a picture circulating with you giggling in between them as they lay a kiss on each side of your cheek.

• when asked about what it’s like to work with you during solo red carpet interviews, they instantly light up at the mention of your name before they sing their praises about your talent, personality, and beauty.

• if you happen to walk by or send them a wave while they’re talking to a reporter, they get distracted and trail off.

• “ah, sorry! what was i saying?”

• the press conferences is where they really show out.

• you always sit in between them, so there’s no conflict over who gets to sit with you.

• nicholas would absentmindedly put his hand on your knee while cooper would put his arm around your chair.

• if it’s your turn to speak, they’re attentively looking and listening. by this point, you’re sort of getting used to their eyes on you.

• their attention to detail is nothing to be played with.

• if a piece of your hair was in the way or you were close to a wardrobe malfunction, they’d fix it instantly.

• or they’d just love to play with your hair or touch you in general.

• cooper was being his usual bubbly self, even more so when you give him a compliment during the conference.

• “stop! you’re literally the sweetest.”

• nicholas usually had a serious, focused expression on his face, but it switches so fast when you place your hand on top of his, give him a compliment, or make him laugh.

• “there goes that smile!” you say, chuckling.

• nicholas opens up about your work relationship.

• “i know that people joke about coop and i being in love with y/n, but can i just tell you that if you had the chance to work with her and get to know her on a personal level—you can’t help, but to fall in love a little bit! i mean, look at her.” nicholas enthusiastically claimed in the microphone gesturing towards you as you bashfully grin, the audience is hooping and hollering at his statement.

• “i can’t say that i disagree, she’s just a product of loveliness. the way she talks, walks, and carries herself says it all.” cooper chimed, turning his beaming face towards yours.

• nicholas speaks again, “it’s crazy because we all hang out all the time on set and even when she has to go off somewhere else, i sorta get sad and i’m just like ‘damnit, i wish i could talk to her for a little bit longer.’ that’s just how cool she is.” the crowd erupts into a chorus of “aw’s”.

• “oh, my goodness. thank you both! it’s always such a pleasure.” you reply with a humbling smile, but on the inside, you were tweaking as they both took your hands.

• butterflies are in your stomach.

• both cooper and nicholas were just adorable in the way they would hype you up.

• they stood right by your side when you were presented with your first emmy and when you gave your speech. you were about to burst into tears.

• cooper had a handkerchief ready and nicholas reassuringly touched your shoulder.

• you were grateful to work with people like them.

fluff , 🚬 , a bit of heavy swearing , lara n dani r mean , reader’s a crybaby + a daddy’s girl , & it kinda gets creepy at the end

: at a party is the last place anyone would expect to see you at—even you would expect the same. the only reason you’re at a party right now is because your friends were practically nagging you to go with them every second. hell, you didn’t even want to be here right now. and you wish you weren’t. but.. luckily for you, two girls came to change that.

A/N: its my first time writing a fic so i’m really sorry for any spelling or grammatical errors ☹️☹️ this was also a bit rushed so i hope u guys don’t mind TT

▶︎ •၊၊||၊|။|||| | meet me in the pale moonlight - lana del rey

some trashy cyberpop blasted through the buzzing house, setting the vibe for the party's hedonistic energy. daniela pulled out her black card, carefully lining up the white powder into thin stripes on a mirror as her best friend, lara, wipes her nose in anticipation, her eyes darting up for a second before narrowing. lara swallows hard, leaning on her side to nudge daniela.

“yo, dani. who is that?” lara speaks in a low murmur, her gaze fixated on you as you linger in the hallway of the party. daniela looks over her shoulder, setting her card down. “her? no clue, dude. want to find out?” daniela suggests, a smirk forming on her lips as her and lara exchange knowing looks.

“bet.” lara chuckles, giving daniela a pat on her back. the two already making their way to you.

“hm..” you hum to yourself as you look around—making your way through the party; still very much oblivious to the two girls who are approaching you.

lara sneaks up behind you, placing a hand on your shoulder. your shoulders tense up as you slightly jump upon the sudden contact, immediately turning around in defense; making daniela grin, earning a snicker from lara as she puts her hands up, trying to show you that she means no harm.

“y’ okay there, princess? you look a bit lost..” lara asks under her breath, maintaining eye contact.

“o-oh– yeah, m’ okay.. jus’ takin another look at the party before i leave,” you mumble, shying away from lara’s gaze.

daniela’s eyes light up with interest at your shy demeanor as she eyes you up and down, a smirk playing on her lips.

“oh, you’re leaving already? that’s a shame.” daniela says, her voice dripping with fake sympathy.

“mm.. mmhm–“ you nod, fighting the urge not to throw up from the lingering smell of cigarettes and alcohol coming from the party.. and the two girls.

lara leans in closer, her hands tucked into the pocket of her baggy jeans that had a black, studded belt with a skeleton design on front wrapped around the waistline of her jeans with chains dangling on each side. daniela isn’t far, just a few steps behind lara—her eyes never leaving you.

“y’ know, it’s getting pretty late.. and it can get pretty rough around here at night.” lara says, her voice deep and low.

“well– yeah.. i- i guess you’re right,” you murmur, not really trying nor wanting to put up a fight. and it’s not like you could in your dazed and hazy state, anyway. though.. you know that you really should be going home by now. God, just the thought of your dad getting worried sick about you already makes your head hurt like crazy.

daniela’s smirk widens. she steps closer, her voice above a whisper. “yeah. you shouldn’t walk alone at night—or take any cabs back home for that matter, too. it’s dangerous both ways.” she glances at lara, who nods slightly, encouraging daniela to keep talking.

“why don’t you.. why don’t you sit with us a bit, before we take you home?” daniela offers, her eyes locked onto yours as lara pulls out a pack of cigarettes and lights one, watching the scene unfold. “we’re just sitting around here, anyways.”

you tilt your head at blonde’s offer, unsure about whether to take it or not—although, something’s telling you not to. and.. what does she mean by, “before we take you home” anyway? what does she mean by we..? besides, you don’t even know who they are—you don’t even know what their names are! but.. you take up the offer, anyway.

“o-oh– um.. m’ kay– sure,” what.an.idiot. good luck getting yourself out of this one, you think to yourself; already slapping yourself across the face mentally. but.. s’ not like anything could go wrong, right? i mean, they seem really nice! it’d be a shame to turn down their offer. and plus, i’ll probably feel really bad about it if i do..

the two girls smile, satisfied with your response. daniela gestures to the bench next to them, and you sit down. the indian-american takes a long drag from her cigarette, blowing out a ring of smoke as she looks at you.

“so, what’re you doin’ at a party like this, princess?” lara asks, her voice casual.

“don’ really know if ‘m bein honest.. i don’t even want to be here. was jus’ forced by my friends,” you murmur grumpily under your breath as you fidget with the hem of your skirt—your mind racing with thoughts.

their eyes narrow slightly at your admission, not expecting an answer like that from you. but the two girls quickly play it off with a smirk.

“forced, huh? cute.” daniela says, her voice mixed with amusement and mockery. after a few seconds of silence, the cuban girl clears her throat.

“um, if you were wondering.. ‘m daniela– but, you can call me dani. and this is lara.”

finally! you know their names now. so, if they try to pull any sneaky shit– you immediately stop yourself, not wanting to think of them that way.

“‘kay.. well, s’ nice to meet you, dani n lara–“ i get cut off as particle of tobacco smoke coming from lara’s cigarette makes its way into the insides my nose; making me let out a small cough in response.

lara snorts, taking another drag of her cigarette. daniela, however, seems intrigued by you. she leans in closer, her eyes roaming all over your face and body.

“you’re really fuckin’ cute, y’ know that?” daniela says bluntly. the other girl chuckles, flicking the head of her cigarette onto the ground before turning her head to face you fully, her legs spread wide as she leans back on the bench.

“she’s also really fuckin’ naive. don’t you think so, dani?” lara says, her tone almost accusatory. the other girl chuckles, nodding her head in agreement.

“w-wha– what d’ you mean..?” you stutter, tilting your head in pure conufsion.

lara smirks, leaning in closer to you. she reaches out and tucks a strand of hair behind your hair, making the small white ribbon on the side of your hair slightly detatch.

“what ‘m tryna say is– i bet you’re the type to get straight A’s and never stay out past curfew.” a faint blush creeps up on your cheeks while listening to lara explain what she meant, a soft smile tugging on your lips.

“well, i.. i try to be,” you mumble as your eyes flicker between the two girls. daniela chimes in, “oh, wow, a goody two-shoes. how fucking boring.”

“oh– ‘m.. m’ sorry–“ you frown at that, feeling a slight pinch in your heart upon hearing what daniela said. you were never good at things like this—and you never liked it whenever someone talked to you in a slightly mean tone or would just simply raise their voice at you. you were a crybaby. and.. i mean– she was being so nice to me jus’ a second ago.. what happened?

lara and daniela make eye contact the second they’re met by the frown on your face. the blonde mouthing a: “i didn’t mean to!”. before daniela could say something mean again, lara sighs and quickly tries to change the topic.

“so, have you ever done anythin’ rebellious, princess? like.. anythin’ at all?” lara asks gently with new profound softness in her voice, earning a cheeky smile from you as your face lights up a bit; taking notice in lara’s gesture.

“mm..” you simply shake your head, not really interested in saying much anymore after daniela’s recent comment.

daniela’s eyebrows furrow in guilt when she notices how quiet you’re being, nudging the red head a bit. lara picks up on it, snorting playfully as she tries to nudge the conversation into a more positive direction to brighten up the mood a bit.

daniela lets out a soft chuckle, lara shaking her head in disbelief. “you’re kidding, right?” lara teases, tilting her head in curiosity.

“not even a little misdemeanor? shoplifting a candy bar or staying out past midnight?” daniela asks, seeming genuinely shocked. you shake your head again,

“n-no.. never– m’ not kiddin.. m-my dad would kill me if-“

daniela raises an eyebrow at that, a grin forming on her lips. “daddy’s girl, huh? classic.” daniela takes a puff of her cigarette, exhaling slowly.

“well, angel, maybe it’s time you stop being such a little daddy’s girl n start livin’ a little.” lara adds.

“hm– no.. no thanks.” you mutter, biting your lip nervously.

“oh, come on. live a little, baby! y’ can start by having a cigarette with us.” daniela encourages, holding out the pack of cigarettes.

“i- i don’ smoke.. m’ sorry,” you receive a snort from the two girls who are towering over you. “of course you don’t smoke. you probably don’t even drink or swear, do you?” lara sighs dramatically.

“right. s’ like you’re like a fuckin’ saint or somethin.” daniela snickers before turning to lara, “maybe we should corrupt her, lars.” she teases playfully, trying to get a reaction out of you.

you frown at that, looking up at them with doe eyes; practically already batting your eyelashes at them at this point without even realizing it as you’re left dumbfounded by their words.

lara chuckles, grabbing you by the jaw– her grip slightly firm and strong. “oh my god, dani. jus’ look at her face.. she literally looks like she’s about to cry,” daniela joins in on the teasing, leaving a mean comment while lara mockingly boo-hoos, making you whimper at their easing, your eyebrows furrowing in annoyance as tears start forming in your eyes.

lara lets go of your jaw as they both stop teasing, noticing the slight change in your expression. “aww.. did we hurt your wittle feewings, baby?” daniela teases for the last time before softening her voice, “hey, we’re jus’ messing with you.. we’re sorry, hm? don’ cry,” the blonde says, gently wiping a tear from your cheek.

lara tsks, “looks like we’ve got a crybaby to take care of tonight. let’s get you back home, hm? wouldn’t want to worry your family, princess.” you nod in agreement, letting the two girls lead you outside of the party and into daniela’s red mustang, driving out of the parking lot the second everything was all set.

though, one thing you never realized.. is that they never asked for your address.

[dr-spectre]

The discourse surrounding Sonic movie 3 is some of the most infuriating shit i've had to deal within the Sonic community for a long ass time. It is just... oh my god man.

The amount of anger that can be generated within the community over two egg fellas dancing is kinda nuts.

Now listen, as a man who loves Sonic and especially Adventure 2, I'm gonna be for real, i do not like this all that much. I just don't like the idea of the man who in his first appearance was him in chains ranting about how he is going to destroy the Earth and then later getting executed via firing squad, dancing around with his grand son and being incredibly goofy for the sake of it.

"But it's a kids movie!!" So? That excuse is bullshit and you fucking know it dude, you know what else is made for kids? Watership Down, guess what that movie has.

A blood soaked rabbit. Yeah. A kid's movie has that.

You know what else is a kid's movie? Pinocchio, guess what that movie has? Silly light hearted moments and CHILDREN TURNING INTO DONKEYS AND BEING SOLD INTO SLAVERY!!!!!!!!! But the movie is still a classic and fine for children to watch, cause it teaches them important fucking lessons and themes.

I saw someone say that The Hunchback of Notre Dame, one of the darkest Disney movies ever made, a movie beloved by all, a movie with a baby almost being drowned, a mother being murdered near a church, a farm being burnt down, disturbing sexual themes, has the gargoyles and it's still a good movie. Yes, they have the gargoyles, BUT NO ONE LIKES THEM!!!!!!!!!!!! I'VE NEVER MET ANYONE WHO LIKES THEM! THEY ARE JUST THERE TO ENTERTAIN CHILDREN AND THAT'S IT!!!! THE MOVIE STILL HAS TONAL ISSUES!!!

I'm not asking for blood and guts in a Sonic movie, I'm not asking for Shadow to bust a cap in donut lord's ass. I'm asking for a story with more weight behind it. When you are tackling Shadow's backstory, Maria and Gerald fucking Robotnik, you gotta take that shit more seriously. You just have to dude. And if you make shit silly, make it actually... idk... FUNNY?!?!? FUNNY FOR EVERYONE?? NOT JUST 5 YEAR OLDS?!!?!

Serious movies are allowed to have comedic moments to ease the tension, but they must be handled well and fit the overall story and theme that the story is trying to go for. If they are gonna show Shadow's serious backstory and then follow it up with Eggman and his 110 year old grand father dancing, or vice versa, it's not gonna work. It just won't work in my opinion.

"But there might be a twist and Gerald actually goes full on crazy like in Adventure 2!" WE DON'T KNOW THAT YET!!! WE LITERALLY DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING!!!! If it is true that Gerald DOES eventually go crazy and that goofy act is a facade to manipulate Eggman, then guess what, I WOULD LIKE THAT!!! I WOULD BE FINE WITH THAT!! IT WOULD MAKE REPEAT WATCHES MORE INTERESTING!! BUT WE DON'T KNOW ANYTHING YET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU CANNOT BE SO SURE!!!

"But it's Jim Carrey!! He's gonna act goofy!!"

Yes Jim Carrey is known for his comedic roles and him as Eggman is pretty good, but you know what else Jim is known for?

Like I'm just saying guys... he can do more emotional roles, he isn't just the "silly man" you guys think he is. Boiling him down to just one thing and that he can do ONLY one type of acting is so insulting and disrespectful to his acting skills.

Jordan Peele, a comedic actor, went on to direct horror movies like Get Out, Us and Nope, and those movies have some of the most craziest and most intense horror movie scenes I've ever seen in my life.

The same man who did this.

Directed this.

Stop boiling down creative people into just one role. It's so annoying.

"But the movie can balance seriousness and stillness!" THE MOVIE ISNT OUT YET! WE DON'T KNOW THAT YET!!!!!!!!!! THE TONE BALANCE COULD BE GOD AWFUL OR IT COULD BE ACTUALLY GOOD! Like how the most emotional and powerful scene of Spider-Man 2 leads into one of the funniest scenes of the movie, but it WORKS SO WELL!!! BECAUSE IT TIES INTO THE THEMES OF THE MOVIE ABOUT WANTING TO LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE VS GREAT POWER AND GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!!!!!!!!! SACRIFICING YOUR DREAMS IN ORDER TO DO THE RIGHT THING!!!

"But Sonic Adventure 2 and Unleashed are goofy and serious!!"

My brother in Christ... Adventure 2 is not fucking goofy. It doesn't throw out referential humor, it doesn't target children only. Sonic doesn't reference google maps and we don't see Eggman dancing IN HIS DAMN BASE IN THE PYRAMID! The goofiest shit Eggman did was scratch his ass for five frames. And then an hour later Eggman pulled a FUCKING GUN ON AMY ROSE AND WAS READY TO KILL HER! WHICH LEAD TO ONE OF THE COOLEST SCENES IN THIS DAMN FRANCHISE!! EGGMAN THOUGHT HE WON IN ADVENTURE 2!!!

The goofy shit from Adventure 2 is down to the delivery of the English voice cast and the translated script, i promise you, you WILL notice a difference between the original Japanese voice cast and the English cast.

Sonic Unleashed is not goofy, it is has funny moments but they are very few and far between. They do not destroy the tone of the story because Sonic Unleashed is not trying to be overly dark or overly lighthearted, it's somewhere in the middle but it leans more into the lighthearted side of going on an adventure and exploring new countries with Chip. That is the focus of the story, Sonic and Chip. The Dark Gaia stuff is just a motivator for the player to explore new areas.

The comedy of Unleashed is between Eggman and that early Orbot SA-55, the humor is SA-55 poking holes at Eggman's plan and ego and it's written really well. It doesn't feel like dumb jokes made for just kids.

The crazy Dark Gaia serious shit is saved AT THE FINALE AND OPENING OF THE GAME!!! But it works because the rest of the story isn't OVERLY jokey and super lighthearted. There's barely ANY jokes to speak of in Unleashed, aside from Eggman getting hit in the face with a rock, Eggman smacking SA-55, and telling him to "SHUT UPPPPPPP!!!" At the end of the game.

"But movie Sonic is different from game Sonic!!" Yes, i know that, movie Sonic is a different character from the game Sonic we know, yes the tone is more targeted towards children, yes Sonic in the previous two movies made referential humor and Eggman was dancing. But even back then, even as a younger person, i still found it fucking cringey when Sonic and Eggman flossed. I found it lame as hell that a Sonic movie would include a fart joke. If teen me found it unfunny then I don't know if modern day kids are gonna find Sonic doing dated dancing funny.

Hell the dancing scene in Sonic movie 1 was better executed because of Agent Stone popping up at the end and that sudden cut to him, followed up by Eggman's scream.

This shit is just funny to me idk why.

When you have trailers that includes serious looking shots and making the audience believe that they are gonna get something different from the previous two movies, but in the tv spots and music videos, we see shit like this.... It's just... I don't know man.

Sonic movie 1 and 2 sort of got away with being more jokey and childish because those movies don't tackle serious subject matter. Sonic movie 1 is just a basic kids CGI live action hybrid movie, Sonic movie 2 tries to go further into the Sonic lore from the games but it isn't explored TOO MUCH! Knuckles' backstory is used to connect with Sonic's and compare and contrast the two, you know, two sides of the same coin sort of deal.

But Sonic movie 3 is tackling stuff from Sonic Adventure 2, a story with government cover up, memory manipulation (call it brainwashing and I'm gonna stab you /j), attempted genocide of the Earth, a prototype ultimate lifeform that's in constant pain and fueled by the anger of Gerald, a child getting shot, an old man getting killed via firing squad, and yet... The tone is gonna be the exact same as Sonic movie 1 and 2? Why?

And Sonic is still the same old movie Sonic from movie 1 and 2. It feels like there is no growth to him. "But Sonic has a flat character arc!!" IN THE FUCKING GAMES! NOT IN THE MOVIES!!!!! Sonic went through an arc, he WANTED something more personal in movie 1 and 2, a family, he wanted to not feel lonely after the death of Longclaw, yet despite going through a character arc, he doesn't feel more mature.

Why is he saying shit like "Konichiwhaaaaaaa?" It's not funny, it just isn't I'm sorry. Fucking hell.

This is definitely a negative take from me compared to how overly positive everyone is. People are defending this with all of their heart and dismissing people who say "hey i don't like this."

I think that the Sonic community has a toxic positivity problem, i know that it brings back bad times when people criticize Sonic, i know, trust me i get it.

But people make criticisms to see improvements, we wanna see content from Sonic that can better target all Sonic fans from all ages, not just children. Sonic never targeted just kids, it has something for everyone. I love Sonic, i love the blue rat, i really do. But Movie 3 has me very conflicted.

I'm still really excited for the movie, but i don't wanna be blinded by the hype, i don't want to say that this movie is gonna be the best thing ever, because i don't think it will be. I'm just hoping for an 8/10 movie. Something fucking GREAT!!!!

If you personally don't mind the direction of the movie then guess what, THAT'S FINE!!! IT'S OKAY!!! Just don't fucking come down my neck about me not liking it, saying that I'm wrong or stupid for having a vastly different take than yours.

Sonic is in the best position he has been in so long, he feels mainstream and beloved again. We are free from the mid 2010s and how dry it was. I'm happy where the series is at!!

Even if movie 3 doesn't deliver what i wish to see, at least Shadow Generations and Dark Beginnings gave me what i was looking for. An emotional tale that felt true to the characters i grew up loving and pretending to be as a little kid. (I pretended to run around as Sonic and Shadow as a kid, no that's not a joke.)

Also, Run It is a mid as hell song. It sounds like an ai trying to replicate the songs from 2015 to 2016. It sounds incredibly dated and has NOTHING to do with Sonic aside from "RUN it." The other movie songs had barely anything to do with Sonic, but Run It is on a whole other level LMAO!

If this is the credits song after Shadow dies or something, I'm gonna be pissed off. Just make it a song for the beginning of the movie, PLEASE!

Felix Lee Perspective Reading

Disclaimer: No facts, all alleged. Just my interpretation of the cards and energy I get. This one was a wild one. I thought I would get a light one from him, but nope, not today.

Now time to get to the requested reading of Felix. I have been liking his energy so far. He seems like a cool dude. But now it is time to see if I can dig up anything else here. The song that came to mind, very quickly may I add was Natasha Bedingfield's Pocketful of Sunshine. This makes sense with his sunshine energy. I have been liking his energy, and I don't really think I am going to get anything intense here, but we'll see when I get to the Dark Mirror deck, now he is pulling towards the Crystals deck I have first, which I find weird, like why this deck, but anyway, going with the direction I am being pulled towards. Now, let's get to the cards.

Okay, so he is giving me crystal colors that correlate with black and green. I wonder if he likes these colors. But, with the black crystals, these are about repelling negative energy, so he could be someone who does this. I wonder, does he work with crystals? Or know their power? This is interesting. It seems he could be someone with good coping strategies and has great ways of dealing with sadness or anxiety.

Now, the other color is green, this can be closely aligned to nature. He may enjoy nature. It could be very healing to him, but this color also connects to the heart chakra. Being able to open his heart and connect with his emotions and do some healing work. He may be on a journey to healing himself.

Not sure if he has been through any trauma, as it seems half these idols have. But I feel he is someone who does the work to heal himself. I wonder if he is spiritual as well. He seems like someone who brings out love and attracts love himself. The one card has the word purity, he could have that energy with in him, or he tries to purify any toxic or stagnant energy around him. Alright, on to the Dark Mirror, this is where the nitty gritty stuff comes from, so let's see what I get here. Hopefully, nothing crazy. Now, moment of truth.

Darn it, I was hoping for something good here, so he also got the Temple of my body card, this card gives me sexualized energy. Now, I don't know if I am getting sexual abuse with him, but he does seem like he is very sexualized, maybe by the public, or he uses this image. Now, we have the triumph of lies, like I got from Jungkook's reading. There could be lies about his image, or there are just lies around him. Ugh this sucks. Like is his bubbly image a lie! No! Because now, the next card is artificial heart. This is someone who is cold hearted.

Now, I am feeling this is more the people around him, the industry. He was lied to. And now he seems cold and detached because of it. Now, with the anger and chains. There is anger here, and frustration for what is going on behind the scenes. But we have chains, so he is restricted from expressing himself. I don't know, but I can see him getting really frustrated and throwing things around a room out of frustration. I needed one more card, now with the forgetting oneself, it could be like he blacks out and gets these angry tantrums from time to time.

The card number comes to 8, which reminds me of 8 of swords, which is someone tied up and restricted. I can also see this card as dissociating. Honestly, this is kind of scaring me a bit. It is like he disconnects and snaps, but it isn't really him. This is weird, man sorry that my readings just keep getting weird. I should just be a conspiracy person from now on. Like, I wasn't expecting this at all. He is good at hiding this side to him, but then again, I never read too deeply into him.

Okay, just saying this, you don't have to believe me, but I ain't hiding whatever I get, but I am getting that he literally gets tied up, or is held back by someone when he gets in these fits. I just can't get that out of my head, like why am I getting that. I just keep visualizing the 8 of swords in the rider-waite deck, the person is tied, now that usually is a mental thing, but not sure why I feel that is literal for him. Like he gets tied up to stop his rages or angry outburst. I could just be making this up, but I go with what I get, fu** it. Allegedly, no facts here.

Okay, there is some Karma he needs to release. This one card once again is giving me some sort of dissociation, not going to lie. There are things he needs to untangle, be it the past or whatever that is. If he isn't going to therapy, umm he should, sorry, but I am getting that too from his guides. I am not sure if there were childhood struggles, or was his Mom was very detached as well, this one card with the Mom and the child that looks split is telling to me. I am going to say this. You know when someone deals with trauma they dissociate, split so they don't have to deal with the trauma themselves. This is what this gives me. His guides want him to continue working on the healing path and to keep that positive energy he has, even though he seems like he deals with some sh** I do feel overall he still seems like a good dude and tries to remain positive through it all.

I had to go for my spiritual deck here, because I feel this boy has lots of spiritual lessons to learn here. Once again, getting a card of past ties and karma here. There are ties to a past life that affects him now. It could be the anger issues I have seen. There are things in the past he regrets, and he may be trying to right those wrongs, or his guides are advising him to do so. He seems remorseful. I can also see this one card as him praying, like for his sins, interesting. I don't know if he feels this way physically, but spiritually he doesn't feel like he belongs here or connects to the world here. This is actually more normal than people thing, lots of people feel like they don't belong here.

Let's end this with some Tarot. Ugh, this is giving me the same vibe of the whole reading. He got the 9 of Swords. Stress and anxiety, sleepless nights may consume him. He is just overwhelmed mentally. I am a bit worried for him not going to lie. And to the 4 of Cups, another card indicating dissociation and disconnect. He may also feel numb to things at times. This is weird, but he feels a lack of connection to this world. This is sad. Now, to the 2 of Pentacles, I just see him trying to keep busy, so he doesn't have to think or work through his emotions. He may need to juggle different things to bring some excitement to his life, without it there isn't much excitement. Now, with all that he is physically burning himself out. We end with the 10 of Wands, this is physical burn out. Now, it could be the company and idol life. But I also see him doing too much to escape. He also seems to have a lot of baggage he is holding on to. Man, send this man healing and love.

Man, that went where I did not want it to go, or expected, but that is how it works with me. I just opened a pandora box of insight to the idol world and it won't stop. I didn't think I would get a sad story for him, but it seems that is the story of majority of these idols.

[juisrandomstuff]

there was NO reason to do all of this . in no world was tying my king up and putting him in a shed for almost 90 hours reasonable. he was just acting crazy why are we tying this guy up what is this like freaking roleplay or something ? this was crazy to me they should have just locked him in his house or something this was so weird. Like you weirdos if I was in Sdr2 i would want him locked up somewhere to because i swear he was acting so crazy during trial 1 so like obviously but WHAT IS THIS where did they get that CHAIN? It was NEVER that bad to point that we're tying this crazy dude up with a chain like the scene where he asked Hajime to feed him is a huge reason why i geniunley think Komahina shippers aren't delusional like most protag x antag ships in this series because this was so gay like get a room please the whole scene was just weird Literally felt like i was interrupting something...coming from somebody who is extremely skeptical about MLM relationships in media. Some serious stuff....

Hudson and Rex S02E10 - The French Connection

The episode from which I found out that there are some islands close to Canada that belong to France somehow. And apparently now there's also a crime show set in those islands?

From Wikipedia: Saint-Pierre is a Canadian police procedural television series, slated to premiere in the 2024–25 season on CBC Television. The series stars Alan Hawco as Donny "Fitz" Fitzpatrick, a police officer with the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary; after one of his investigations gets uncomfortably close to the corruption of a powerful local politician, he is exiled to the French territory of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, where he partners with local police officer Geneviève "Arch" Archambault (Joséphine Jobert) to to solve local crimes.

Now, wait a second. That's about half the plot of this Hudson and Rex episode!

Anyway, on to the episode.

A girl carrying baguettes on a bicycle???

"I hope he's not some pretentious Godard-quoting chain smoker." Just once, look around before you speak.

I got you now, mister Black Coffee. That's more milk than what I put in my latte.

We've already established some of the most popular stereotypes for French and Canadian people. Valerie is already snobbish and Charlie has already apologized once.

While on duty?

Oh my god his face when the dude spits out the gin in the spit bucket lmao

I like many kinds of drinks but I admit that gin leaves me uninterested. I don't know what it is about it.

Well, hello there, Aaron Ashmore, twin brother of Shawn Ashmore. For anyone who doesn't know, this not the guy who's on The Rookie, but he is the guy who was on Killjoys, with Mayko Nguyen.

People keep handing Valerie drinks and Charlie keeps saying "we're on duty". Just give up.

Why does he look so happy to be digging through trash???

Claire just said that there's no law against lying to the police. What?

Valerie, when you doubt Charlie, it's funny. When you doubt Sarah and Rex, you sound like a twat.

Well, don't sound so proud about it.

"You're more comfortable with dogs than people". Probably, but that's because people are often twats.

Charlie's face is pure comedy in this episode. So funny.

Sarah gets to go undercover AND drink gin. Well, if we call that drinking.

She says "you guys" but only looks at Charlie. You're not even subtle.

Charlie: Oh, hell to the no. This is a trap.

Valerie is not wrong here. That's gross, not to mention unsanitary. He'd put so much milk in it that it must have gone bad by now. And judging by his reaction when he takes a sip, it probably has. Never drink coffee with dairy that's been left out for more than two hours, folks.

I only wish I could capture the following scene with Sarah and Jesse competing on who's going to deliver the new evidence that they have found out. But I think Sarah's "I'll fucking murder that twink" face is very telling.

Now, cognac, I like. Although, according to google, the most expensive cognac is Henri IV, not V. I'm sure they've written that intentionally. The real cognac is worth up to 2 million dollars, by the way. People are crazy.

Charlie does not understand any of this and to be honest, neither am I. Any bottle of wine that costs more than 20 Euros is a scam. Any clear alcohol like whiskey, gin, rum, vodka, that costs more than 50 Euros is also a scam.

"No CCTV cameras anywhere. You might say that it's the perfect place for murder". I don't remember a lot of cases outdoors that were solved by watching CCTV cameras either way. Which makes sense. I mean, how many CCTV cameras does a city like St. John's need?

This is such a funny episode, really.

We must do this at least once in any Rex adaptation. I bet it's in the contracts lol

Joe: *counts* One [Valerie], two [Charlie], *skips Jesse* three of you [Rex] are going on a trip. lol poor Jesse.

*tries to speak French and gets guns pointed at him* Come on, it wasn't that bad, was it? (Yes, I'd have put that line in there if I could.)

That's why he'll move soon!

The chase scene was good too.

Ugh, Valerie has her finger on the trigger. No.

Joe: "Can anyone explain to me why I was asked to comp a 300 dollar cognac bill?" Justice isn't cheap, Superintendent. Although for that many bottles... I mean, I can't find cognac that cheap here.

We had whiskey glasses in S1, what the hell happened?

Well, I enjoyed that. I didn't remember it was such a funny episode. And I maxed out the image limit again.

2.6 Penacony thoughts [part 3]

**Spoiler warning** for the very last bit of the story, starting with the party setup and everything that follows after. Of course don’t read further you haven’t finished the story for yourself because I wouldn’t like the ruin the experience for you.

I always love how self aware the game is. I personally can’t remember why he would be here right now but his tendency of using movie terms so passionately at every chance he gets is endearing to me for some reason, so I’ll let his sudden appearance slide just because I enjoy having him around.

Boothil calling Robin “singing queen” is something I didn’t know I needed until it was said and done, like shut up that’s adorable.

Him opening up about his past in an attempt to calm her down before the performance.. y’all, this pair was cute to me before but this whole patch has sold me on them.

Reca literally calling people npcs but at least he says they can still hold value and the power to influence others. I think life can be thought of this way too, like other people obviously can’t be you, they may not even be part of your supporting cast of characters, but they’re still human and should at least be treated with kindness because who knows how they may or may not affect your life.

Robin mentions Sunday once and all I can imagine is him still chained up to that chair Jade found him in. Really looking forward to seeing how our holy man manages to return in 2.7. I’m still placing my own hopes on him accepting Jade’s deal but we shall see. If so, I’m curious to learn what the consequence will be and how people’s opinions of Jade might change. I wonder, if she saves your beloved Sunday, would y’all still dislike her? I’m already so fond of her so naturally I’d love to give her more praise if such a scenario does happen.

But Robin has seemed so downcast ever since that final battle. Poor girl. She really has been doing so much on her own since Sunday got locked up. You don’t have to do everything by yourself sweetie! So many people are willing to help!

Ma’am you're so pretty. DJ queen is truly a bright and beautiful sight to behold! I’m glad she’s able to smile so big after all the chaos Penacony experienced recently.

And then we have our lovable cowboy sitting off to the side enjoying the show.. until some random npcs come over and drag him to the dance floor so he can really sway to the beat.

As much as I love seeing the Trailblazer wield different weapons in cutscenes, I really wish we pulled out the bat or lance for this one. Seeing us hold out the hat while Dan Heng wields Cloud-piercer and Rappa with her giant shuriken just makes us look a bit silly.

I did like how Reol’s song from Rappa’s trailer played in game during that whole section where all we did was spam Rappa’s technique and chase down Profnana. I hope Hoyo continues to include trailer songs more in the actual story in the future, like how they included a calmer version of Monodrama during the 2.3 Sparkle bomb hunt scene.

All that nonsense with the monkeys is happening and March is over here just living her best life at the concert. I suppose that’s fair. She was hard at work during our recent trip back to the Xianzhou with her training arc, fight against Hoolay and calming down a raging Feixiao, so now it’s our turn to endure all the craziness.

Never in my life would I have imagined seeing Boothill in the spotlight during one of Robin’s shows and yet here we are.

He’s such a fun, entertaining character.. I guess if he can moonwalk during his own trailer, he’s perfectly capable of tap dancing and busting out some silly moves like this.

Behold! A literal definition of crashing into a party.

At least we provided Dan Heng with a soft landing? Seems we’re totally fine with it too if the rock n roll hand signs are anything to go by.

Rappa naturally makes a much calmer landing, until one of her spray can bonks her on the head again. Still a fine ending to a successful mission.

Damn dude, what else has the IPC done to you?

I’m actually not too surprised to see Rappa act this way? like she doesn’t seem the type of person to be completely hung up on getting revenger over someone else who wronged her. She’ll still feel hatred towards them, sure, but she’s able to put all those emotions aside and focus on other things if she wants to, like that whole band side quest that recently started.

I dunno, I still think attending university in a dream is such a wild concept. Penacony is truly a bizarre place.

Oohh boy. Safe to say we’ll be seeing these two again in the future, yeah?

Well, that’s all for now. I did finish the whole band side quest that had all the rhythm games last night and it was fine. Far less Serval than I had originally expected with how the 2.6 livestream introduced the event though, but at least she was there for a fleeting moment.

[sams-art-domain]

spooky psych ward, but different than the large media portrays it.

Tws: graphic depictions of violence, suicide & sh mention, HORROR OOOOOOoOOOO, medical malpractice

Characters: Charlie. And some other made up guys

He took a deep breath, just a stupid dare, in, out. Everything's fine.

The old psych ward at the edge of town had been down for years. Shut down due to medical malpractice and unlivable conditions.

Charlie rolled his eyes, putting up a brave face as he texted his group chat. 'Alright, I'm heading in. I'll take a selfie by one of the rooms for proof.' He then turned his phone on silent so that he wouldn't be spooked by any notifications.

He turned on his phone flashlight, and then the dark was brightened. Dead grass from the November weather. An old rusty door which was the entrance to the 3 story tall building. There was only windows on the third floor.

"Okay. Go in, top floor, take a pic, leave." He told himself. Taking a picture of the old rusty door. Charlie puffed up his hair with his hand, and went to open the door.

Inside was a waiting roomesc thing. Everything looked pretty old and dirty. A desk sat in the center of the back of the room. And flipped and broken chairs were next to the walls. Other than that, it was empty. Empty and dark. Charlie turned his flashlight up a mode because it was so dark. Even though that made his phone battery drain, this was going to be quick.

As he walked around the room. His anxiety spiked. It felt like someone was watching him. Though he figured it was just the reputation of this place.

A few years back, there was this old guy who used to be a 'doctor' there. His name never revealed to the public. He was horrible. Made his patients feel worse. If he didn't kill them. He thought that the people in there were freaks and monsters and deserved to be put in chains if not put down. It made Charlie sick.

How could you look at someone who needed help, and decide 'eh- let's starve them and drug them up and kill them for being human needing help.'

Charlie didn't know too much about psych wards, but he knew that the people who were supposed to helping people, were failing.

The way that the torture here was found out was by an escaped dude named "Harry Shild". He was put in there for repeated self harm. His family forced him in there when he was 16. Never left until then, when he was 19. He offed himself once he was outside. That's when the company was investigated and people realized how horrible the doctors were.

Charlie was walking towards the stairs leading upwards, every other door in the first floor being locked.

He heard something.

Someone walking. And humming.

Charlie almost screamed, but ran away from the stairs to the door, deciding the best bet was to make a B-line towards the door. He isn't some stupid protagonist in a horror movie. He shouldn't have even went into the building in the first place.

As he ran, his phone fell out of his hoodie pocket.

Nonono- he stopped running and grabbed-

Back when this place was up and running, that sicko doctor that ran the place started some kind of cult? Any sign of ‘freak’ in you and you could be put in here, scary stuff. The main reason people fear this place isn’t really because it’s of “crazy” people, but because the doctors were never actually arrested. A few of them- but a lot of them just… were never caught.

...

....

He woke up, vision blurring in. He felt sick. His face felt flushed. He was f r e e z i n g.

Looking around, Charlie saw a fluorescent light shining down onto his face. His throat hurt, he tried to sit up but couldn’t. panic set in. Where is he??

bile rises in his throat.

he looks at his body, stuck down to a table, like some stereotypically torture scene. He panics. Fuckfuckfuckfuck- fuck- where’s his phone!? He struggles hopelessly. Then he hears a door in the room open. His head shoots in the direction of the door. “Wh-“ he chokes on his own saliva.

“Shh, shh now. You’re sick, I’m here to help you.” A voice, soft as your favorite pillow and thick like cookie dough. Yet masculine in its own right. A sick blanket of warmth. It does nothing for Charlie’s panic.

“I- I’m NOT SICK- GET THE FUCK AWAY-“ Charlie’s fight or flight is triggered, he fights. Struggling aggressively while cursing out the man.

“Shhut up.” The man’s voice carries the ‘sh’ Almost a stutter but not quite. He grabs a vial of something and a kind of syringe.

“NO- NO-“ Charlie struggles more. Panic growing as he sees the syringe. his wrists and elbows and knees and ankles hurt from the hard clash on the tables metal.

“That’s an ugly noise.” The man’s face is half covered by a medical mask, whilst the upper half is uncovered. The man has grey-purple eyes, sleek black hair, though the roots are grayer. His eyes are narrow with deep eye bags. His skin is light, smooth with a simple wrinkle between his eyebrows. Which are thin and well-trimmed, furrowed together as his eyes are squinted with disgust.

“GO- GO.- GET- -NO FUCK- GO-“ Charlie was still trying to escape. Tears pricked his eyes. ‘Who is this why is here why me nononono I will not let him hurt me- stop stop stop why why why who is he no no no-‘ He hit his knee hard on the restraint, earning a strained yelp from Charlie.

The man holds Charlie’s arm down, just above the elbow. And the man begins talking as Charlie’s fight forms to freeze. “I said to shut up. This will help that. In this syringe is about 4mg of clonazepam, it should help you shut the fuck up so I can help you.” The man sighed, he was in a classic doctor outfit, blue round neck shirt with a large white lab coat of sorts on top. He had a stethoscope around his neck. Then, while Charlie stared in horror, injected him with the drug.

“St-op- nonono- please-“ Charlie began to cry, his nose burned and his throat burned and where he was given the shot ached and he shook violently.

TBC I JUST WANNA POST THIS

[sillymaxing]

Idk what to call my AU, but here are some character descriptions and hcs.

CW: mentioned war, mentioned torture, mentioned suicidal ideation, imprisonment, isolation.

General

When the main 4 were living together, Tord was 25, Edd was 25, Tom was 24, and Matt was 23.

Tord moved away when he turned 26

And then 3 years later he comes back, now 28.

And within a month, He is kicked out cause all of the events in The End.

The invasion happens a year later. When Tord had time to regroup.

Tord

Doesn’t show his face. He wears a very silly red armored mask.

5’8

He’s an inventor, engineer, scientist. This man is SO smart.

He knew about Tom’s Monster form for a while. Even before he moved out. He just didn’t say anything.

More focused on work than romance or even friendship.

Absolutely no restraint or hesitation on the battlefield.

Very much addicted to smoking. It’s to the point where he claims he can’t think straight if he doesn’t smoke.

Really wishes Edd and Tom were just random people instead of old friends, because now he feels guilt and remorse hurting them.

Paul is like an older brother figure to him.

Patryck is someone Tord met when he moved away originally. They totally met at the gym.

Paul

In this AU, Paul is actually a HUGE behind the scenes guy.

The Red Army was his idea originally.

In fact, he was going to be the leader.

But he met Tord, and saw CRAZY potential.

Convinced Tord to move away and train underneath him.

Listen, this man has like maxed out charisma. Convinced this little red guy to leave his entire life behind.

Tord is the face of the Red Army, and the one making most of the decisions. Paul is like his advisor.

Didn’t actually like Patryck at the start, but they work as fine coworkers. They can get along pretty well now.

Paul is 5’10

In his early 40s

Patryck

Patryck was a regular dude going to college and studying Supply Chain Management and Information Systems.

This guy is a businessman through and through.

Tord tried to convince him to join the Red Army, but Patryck insisted that he finish college first.

And he DID!! But during college, Patryck would train with Paul and Tord. He learned how to handle melee weapons, firearms, etc.

In his early 30s.

5’11

He really likes video games. Keeps a Nintendo Switch in his room at the Red Army base.

Really wants to grow out his hair, but Paul and Tord have instructed that it can’t be longer than shoulder length due to safety precautions.

Normally has his hair in a ponytail or man bun.

Tom

Okay so Tom’s monster form is like 20 feet tall.

While in his monster form, he isn’t really conscious.

He can kinda control when he turns into his full monster form, but can’t control when he turns back human.

Has this half human half monster form? But it varies. The more monster-like he is, the more foggy his brain gets.

REALLY bad suicidal ideation. He tries to remain strong and tough, but after about a year of being in a lab, it starts to eat away at him.

5’10

The most notable traits of his monster form are razor-sharp claws, teeth, a spiky tail, horns, and purple literally everywhere.

He isn’t allowed to talk to Edd. Isn’t even informed that Edd is captured.

Ever since experiments started, Tom’s craving proteins a lot more, and eats a lot more food in general, since he has to maintain his monster form for longer.

Once Tom starts cooperating, he gets little rewards! Like being able to talk to Matt, extra rest time, comfortable clothes, longer showers, even gets to go outside sometimes.

Edd

Oh boy.

When Edd abandoned Matt, he ran to start the Resistance.

Edd REALLY misses Tom. Regrets not staying around for him.

REALLY good with melee weapons.

Unmatched rage towards Tord. Towards any Red Army soldier. And now that Matt joined the Red Army, only proving Edd right, he now has unmatched rage for Matt.

If Edd and Tom were actually able to talk to each other, they would plan their escape.

Like actually HATES Tord. Hates him more than anything.

5’9

Really misses how things used to be.

Regrets ever letting Tord back in their home.

He feels like all of this is his fault, and that he could’ve prevented it.

Constantly replaying his past in his head, thinking about what he could’ve done differently.

Stays in an isolated cell after his capture. Only a handful of soldiers are allowed to interact with him.

Tord keeps him painfully updated on Resistance survivors that have joined the Red Army since his capture.

Matt

First of all, he’s 6’2.

He isn’t imprisoned for that long compared to Tom and Edd. He’s only in a cell for like 2ish months before being let out. This is mainly because he gave up fighting about a month in, but Tord needed to make sure Red Army actually had Matt’s loyalty, and it wasn’t just a lie.

Matt went from the cell straight into duties, becoming an official member of the Red Army.

Matt works as the supply manager?? Idk the right name for it, but he tracks food and water supply. He’s Patryck’s assistant too.

Matt takes on a few other duties here and there. He doesn’t do anything battlefield related.

Matt is also tasked with showing new recruits around the main base.

He has a room right next to Tord’s.

Sneaks away to bring Tom food or to just talk with him.

Dude, what if for like the soulmate AU Gaz found out first.. like that would rlly crazy

Like idk she got that Irken for babies book like in RE:MHNY2 and was like “EW >:0”

I'm loving the many anon theories on how the Soulmate AU could've gone down differently, it's making me laugh. I'm glad my fic is living in your headspaces.

My initial thought is that if Gaz found out first, it would've been through Dib. Once he realized his soulmate's name was in Irken, he could've theoretically stolen a translator and figured shit out on his own. Gaz probably would've refused to know until curiosity got the better of her one day and then freaked the fuck out.

Of all the names, and all the Irkens, her soulmate is the alien most accessible to her. Somehow, someway, he just so happened to show up on Earth right at the same time and even in the same place she is. Those kind of odds are freaky. Destined/fated/universal alignment levels of freaky. Gaz would've had a constant spiral about 'why' to pretty much everything. Why Zim? Why her? Why them? All kinds of shit.

She definitely wouldn't have told Dib, and obviously would never have told Zim. She'd go from casual indifference to fully hiding from him. Zim would notice eventually, but he'd just assume she was super scared of his amazingness or something. It would never occur to him to dig deeper. Not initially. I don't think Zim would actually register anything until after Dib and Tak's situation got sorted out. Zim would probably not have hung around as staunchly and been so generous with his equipment/time as he would've in the fic, when he was aware Gaz was his soulmate, but he would've still been paranoid about them going back on their deal enough to check in on them frequently in between repairing his base. He'd register Gaz's avoidance as a hinderance to their mission, and start cornering her on it. Especially when he notices Gaz isn't remotely nervous around Tak, but still actively hides from Zim. He's the superior Irken, duh, but still, it wouldn't sit quite right.

At that point, with Dib and Tak occupied, he'd fixate on this new puzzle. Gaz naturally panics and doubles down on avoiding him, sometimes not leaving the house for days, until Dib and Tak's adventures leave her home alone long enough for Zim to barge in and demand some answers. Big ol arguments would ensue, Gaz would deny anything and everything until Zim starts listing all the ways she avoids him, maybe even rambling about the weird way she watches Dib and Tak's human-to-Irken relationship before it clicked.

Gaz fights tooth and nail to keep him away, but Zim in serious-mode is way more of a threat than she could keep off. It would be about as much of a fight as the cafeteria scene was for Dib in the original fic, when Zim reveals Tak's name to Dib as a kid. When he read it, he'd probably just sit for awhile. Shocked, but like Gaz, all the weird pieces and behavior would slot into place. Gaz would leave him and hide in her room while he sat on their couch, and eventually come down maybe the next day to find him still there.

They'd probably have a real quiet conversation from there, honestly. Gaz would've at this point spent so long avoiding Zim that she'd be too burnt out to fight, and Zim would be in a state of quiet understanding. A being in the universe needed him, and was destined for him. Zim. Just an Irken soldier. One of schmillions. To go from being a faceless drone to being singularly handpicked by the universe for someone would be a whole crisis for him, understandably. Contrarily, Gaz spent her whole life fighting to maintain her individuality and not simply be another girl chained to a soulmate she didn't get to pick, and didn't want. From there though, I think they'd manage to work something out. Less explosive then Zim knowing first, and less chaotic then everyone knowing, but they'd still find their way. <3

Fandom: BioShock (infinite I guess? Idk some time during Atlas was around)

Character: Atlas, Irish twat

Pairing: Romantic for Atlas, altho darling would theoretically not like them.

Type of Fic: a short. Plot being, darling tries to escape Atlas again (who wouldn't the dude is nuts) and he cements his craziness by giving her a lobotomy (like in the game) as punishment. Whether he finishes the surgery or not is up to you, all I know is that you can theoretically survive a lobotomy. Or not, idk I ain't a doctor

I'd love to! I watched the cutscenes with Atlas in them for Infinite and I'd love to write something similar to that!

I had to do lobotomy research for this fic-

Change In Mindset

Yandere! Atlas Short

Pairing: Romantic

Possible Trigger Warnings: Female Darling, Manipulation, Failed escape attempt, Kidnapping, Lobotomy attempt/Punishment, Forced relationship, Sadism, Violence, Torture mention, Murder, Sexism if you squint ig, Blood, I kept the Lobotomy scene vague and not detailed because I hate the idea of it and I was cringing the entire time, Put the image under the read more as it could be a triggering gif.

Traversing Rapture alone was a dangerous feat. Splicers roamed everywhere and actively hunted each other down. Rapture was a collapsing city consumed with conflict.

To you, the idea of hiding from Splicers like some street rat in a sunken city was better than going back to Atlas.

Ah, Atlas... a revolutionary leader against Andrew Ryan's tyranny. In reality, the two weren't all that different. If anything you found Atlas a bit more sadistic and cruel than Ryan.

Atlas was also your lover. You wish you could say he wasn't... but he was never too keen on the idea of letting you go. You had become an item with him on a whim, he's charismatic and has such a way with convincing people.

When you got closer to him you realized the truth of who Atlas was. He wasn't a charming leader, it was an act. He's cruel, manipulative, and willing to kill and torture to get what he wants.

That very same Atlas tried to be sickeningly sweet with you. He called you his girl, his doll, his lovely lady.... The very same mouth that hurled insults and threats towards others... kissed you with passion and complimented you.

He's a charming monster. One who metaphorically chained you to him to keep you as his. You had no doubts he killed and tortured for you... just so he can keep his claws in your flesh.

There was a certain point you couldn't handle being beside him anymore. His kisses and hold were always too rough. He made you do what he wanted, regardless on how you felt.

That look in his eyes screamed possessive. He always looked at you with hunger as he held you. He scared you... sometimes you feared he'd kill you.

You escaped... you ran the moment you sensed danger within the man who claimed to love you. The Splicers were not much better but with some stealth you could probably survive, right? In all honesty... you had no idea where you were going to go after this.

Escaping Atlas was simply a dream. Ever since his whole crew had been sunk by Ryan, you have been stuck here. It's like you were in a cage, really.

He'd find you at some point... there was no doubt he was looking for you now. You knew he'd never let you go willingly. In fact, many of his thugs swarmed this area.

You felt like everyone was your enemy. Think of your situation, a young women lost in a city that's falling apart. Her lover being a cruel tyrant for "the people"....

Being caught was inevitable. You could only run for so long. As much as you wanted to ignore the truth, the truth would slam back into your face.

Just like the wrench that collided with the back of your head.

...

By the time you're able to regain your bearings, you're strapped to a chair in a familiar room. The lights blind you and your head throbs painfully like a rhythmic drum

This looks a lot like... the room you and Atlas would frequently stay in? You can't think much without the back of your head ringing in pain. You shake in your restraints, trying to pull them off.

Only to stop when the shape of a hand grips your chin.

"Don't move, doll, it'll only make it all hurt a lot worse."

The tyrant rears his deceptively charming head.

"Atlas...."

"Now where were you running off to, little lady? Needed some fresh air? You know it's dangerous without me around...."

You stay silent, what were you thinking....

"It hurts, really. To think you'd run away from the one I thought you held so dear. Luckily I had one of my men carry you in..." Atlas then leans forward, grinning. "Of course, he hit you rather hard, so I had to correct that by slitting his throat. You aren't getting off easy either, love."

"You really are going to kill me, aren't you-"

"Kill you? I could never. I love you too much for that..." Atlas leans forward to kiss your lips teasingly before pulling away. "I would never kill my doll... however, a man has to correct his lady's behavior, right?"

Your heart drops to you stomach when Atlas turns away only to come back with two tools. A metal spike, and a mallet. Your eyes shakily trail from the tools to his disappointed face.

"I thought you'd be a good girl and listen to me. I guess not... which is where these come in. Normally a doctor would do this but I'd rather do it on you myself, my love."

He pushes your head back and aims the pointed tool near your eye socket. You shake and tell him 'no'. He doesn't listen.

"This is a lobotomy, my dear." Atlas hums, pushing the tool closer.

"You could say it will correct your behavior. I always felt you've been a bit too rebellious for my liking."

You feel the tool starting to prod its way into your skull. Atlas grabs the mallet and grins while blood flows down from your eye.

"How about we change your mindset, love? I promise to be gentle...."

You scream for him to stop... he ignores you and taps the mallet on the tool lodged in your skull.

----

You felt like you lost a part of yourself after Atlas took you in. In fact, you literally did. Atlas had removed a part of your brain. Some memories from your past were replaced with what felt like blank holes.

Your emotions... were nearly non-existent. Apathy was all you ever felt. Actually... you felt quite hollow.

Atlas didn't seem too upset about it. In fact, he felt it was deserved. Running away deserved punishment... now you wouldn't run away. Now you had to stay by him.

Atlas still kissed you and said he loved you. Even though he mutilated your mind beyond repair, he simply used it to his advantage. Now you were just like he had wanted you.

You were like a doll that listened to his every word. You never showed much emotion afterwards. That only allowed Atlas more control, which kept him happy.

"It's such a shame I had to change you like this, doll...." Atlas murmurs, kissing you once again while holding your cheek. "But if I'm being honest... I like that you no longer fight me with anything now."

He pulls you closer, combing his hands down your back.

"Now you won't run... you won't even rebel..."

Atlas holds your chin upwards and meets your distant gaze.

"You can just be my girl... with none of the added fuss, right, love?"

He kisses you once again, but you don't react.

Hello Enigma Chapter Showcase: Gun Talk

(This will be used in a future chapter. Also, this was inspired by a scene from this Ice Cube film called Friday.)

It was a serious day in Raven Brooks and Maritza, had finally reached her limit. The girl had snapped to the pressure and was set to raise chaos. It was bad enough she'd lost Lucy Yi, Aaron, Mya, and Nicky, but Mr. Peterson, the Enigma, the Forest Protectors, and even the Guest had been creating issues for her, much to her rage.

Maritza: "Crime has taken a great toll in this town, so now I'm going to handle the task which no one has ever had the guts to finish off!"

We see Maritza open her dresser drawer, pulling out a weapon, she'd never thought she'd resort on ever using when someone comes in.

Mrs. Esposito: "Maritza, have you seen my shoe-

It was cold silence in the room. So far, both women were looking at each other, both silent and scarred out of their minds. But that's when Maritza's mother speaks first.

Mrs. Esposito: "What's that for?"

Maritza: "Protection."

Mrs. Esposito: "Protection? Protection from who?"

The girl shrugs a bit before she explains the rest.

Maritza: "There are these bad people out there and the town is getting out of control with crime…and…my brother Enzo had gotten himself endangered and…"

Mrs. Esposito: "Oh Dios mío. Your father and I would've never moved into this town if we'd known you need a gun to walk down these streets of Raven Brooks."

Maritza: "You know how it is around here."

Mrs. Esposito: "Oh no daughter, that's not the way how it is. You kids today shouldn't even burden yourselves with such weapons. I never raised you on sissy fighting. The last time you almost eliminated someone, you were scared that you'd end up in jail."

The mother picks up Maritza's baseball bat and large wrench and holds them up in front of her.

Mrs. Esposito: "This is what makes you a stronger woman. When I was growing up, this was all the protection I needed. Of course there was the paddle and belt, but still as the old saying goes: "you win some. You lose some. But you live. You live to fight another day!" Now you honestly think that using that gun and getting yourself in even greater danger is going to help? I mean, some of these folks have an unpredictable set of skills. And don't get me started on luck. You saw what they did to Lucy Yi on that coaster."

That gets Maritza to look down at the floor and contemplate a bit and when she was finished reassessing her thoughts, she stares back at her mother eye to eye.

Maritza: "I'm going to be a stronger woman without it."

Mrs: Esposito: "Now put the gun down and use these as your defense."

The girl gently placed down the gun and picks up the bat and wrench.

Mrs. Esposito: "Now, you're a strong woman. Your uncle picked up a gun too and had to learn the hard way too. I still remember the day his parents were ticked off at him."

The mother gently place her hands on her daughter's shoulders.

Mrs. Esposito: "But you, you've already have that choice. If you want to find the truth and bring justice for Lucy, Aaron, Mya, Nicky, and the rest of you friends and those you consider family, then you've gotta handle things the right way. That's all you need."

Maritza: "Alright Mom."

Mrs. Esposito: "Also, try not to be hard on Nicky, the dude was framed by Peterson, plus you, your brother and Trinity had literally been inside the tunnels connected to his house before, and Aaron and Mya were kind enough to let the three of you in on that secret."

Maritza: "Hmmm."

Mrs. Esposito: "Oh…and another thing, your friend Aaron did something…"

Out of nowhere a large earthquake is made and the whole house began to cave into the foundation, setting a chain reaction, sending the rest of the nearby houses into their own fates. The pair, let out multiple cries and screams as the chaos was arising.

Maritza suddenly springs up, panting and sweating like crazy. She looks around and is relieved to see that she was all alright. But she had all sorts of questions in her mind.

Maritza: "Was that all a dream?"

The amount that gay leather and fetish subcultures have influenced alternative subcultures is fucking crazy. It's crazy the sheer amount of it. We literally made almost every scene what it is today. And then dude bros who think they're the epitome of alt bc they hate everyone will wear a steal chain dog collar and call you a fag (derogatory) because you reciprocate oral with absolutely no hint of irony. or even eroticism.
