#that's because they have the best video quality

[mbbmz]

JUS SAW REQUESTS OPEN. CAN YOU DO TENJIKU SHION OR RINDOU OR SANZU PLEASE? anyways, I LOVE to read the things you writeee! (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Hello there! Since I didn’t really know what you wanted I decided to do random relationship headcanons for Shion and Rindou, hope you enjoy!

Shion Madarame

- He is loud, even more now that he has a partner

- If you do something nice for him like a gift or baked goods he WILL brag about it

- Or brag about random things, too.

- "My s/o makes the best pancakes." (Cue to Rindou smashing his face in his hands because he knows everything about you at this point)

- Dont be fooled by his intimidating aura, he’s needy as hell

- If you’re too busy to answer his texts, he will first spam you, then come uninvited at your place. He doesn’t care if he has to enter by the window (he would and WILL)

- Physical touch, likes PDA too. Always has an arm around your shoulders when you go out.

- Not the most romantic guy, I’ll admit it to you

- "Valentine’s? The fuck is that?"

- Not gonna lie, he’s jealous and possessive. If he sees you talking with a dude (be it a classmate, coworker or even family member) he won’t hesitate to glare at them while pulling you closer to him (and/or insult them, depends)

- Acts tough in front of his friends, but he’s actually a bit soft with you.

Rindou Haitani

- Doesn’t get attached easily, but once he does, you’re not leaving that easily

- Extremely loyal, you’ll never have to be worried with him

- Love language is QUALITY TIME he won’t do grand gestures, just being around you is enough for him

- Most of your "dates" is just hanging around in his (and Ran’s) apartment. Playing video games or trying to show off his mixing skills (if Ran wakes up you’re both fucked)

- Though if you mention a place you really want to go to he will take you there

- Has a good memory and will remember a lot of what you say, even random things

- "You said you liked this so I got it for you" type of boyfriend (won’t admit it though)

- Doesn’t really like PDA, but behind closed doors he will be clingy (while teasing you for the same thing)

- "Feelin’ a bit needy today?" While he’s the one letting you get up from the couch.

- Handles jealousy pretty well, but won’t hesitate to pull you closer in public settings if he feels like someone’s getting to comfortable

- He’s usually very arrogant in public but not really when he’s with you

Fallout 3 wasn't the worst game but did have positives, it's design and ambience were the scariest in the series (in terms of actually scaring me) and the main story and side quests had some really good moments. Fallout 4's story was terrible but the romances were not bad compared to other game series. Personally, I'm kind of glad Avowed wont have romances (unless they changed their minds or are lying to surprise people while playing) because Obsidian's romances have never been the best. I'm not obsessed with games having romances but I'd at least like them to be of good quality, which is rare in Obsidian's games (for me). I think I've only ever liked 3 or 4 romances at most from them. That's why I'm glad New Vegas also didn't have romances. By the way, this isn't dissing Obsidian, Bioware for the most part had abyssal romances before Origins. I'm just worried that there will be romances to avoid.

yeah like, fallout 3 and 4 do have things going for them! but the kind of fallout experience bethesda is interested in giving is just not what i want out of fallout, personally. this is what carrie patel has said about romance in avowed (from ign):

from what i can tell they just decided that it doesn't fit the vibe of avowed, and romance isn't something they are interested in focusing on in avowed (and other obsidian games). so i don't think they are lying about not including it, these reasons seem genuine to me. so i wouldn't worry about having romances to avoid, personally! i don't mind there being romances in video games, but after seeing some of josh sawyer's comments about it i understand where he's coming from. (This is from 2006 lol but given this more recent interview here I think he's remained pretty consistent on this stance.)

ML AU - Public Divorce: Lila

Ok, I need to go on with this for a minute cause. This bit was kind of just a joke, but then I thought about it, & now it’s FASCINATING, and-

Like, the joke is just that Chlo��’s parents are going through the world’s ugliest divorce, and dragging everyone else with them, including celebs, so by the time Lila turns up, the class is just DONE on celeb gossip. Like. The number of scandals and rumours, and outright BLACKMAIL this class has been witness to is honestly impressive. And these kids are so over it at this point. Chloé most of all, but the whole class is just burnt out on anything relating to high-profile. They regularly see a classmates parents duke it out on Talent Tonight, they want to talk about LITERALLY anything else. So Lila shows up, starts spinning her stories, and gets … . nothing? Polite indifference at best, outright ignored at worst?? What?? At first, she thinks maybe she’s been recycling tales too much, maybe they need to be EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE, but that has the opposite effect of what she wants, some of her class starts ACTIVELY AVOIDING HER, so nope, stop that! Lila’s just sitting here, stumped, because what the hell? This has NEVER happened, who doesn’t love good old celebrity gossip??

She’s flicking through her phone on a whim, searching for ideas, ANY ideas, (she has literally never needed more than this, she is truly befuddled) when she stumbles across the cute Fox video, and Kim sees it. And calls the class over. And suddenly Lila’s in the middle of the whole group, cooing over adorable animal videos??? What?? But hey! She can work with this! Who wants to see the new baby elephant at the Oregon Zoo?

After that, it becomes a game of trial and error. ANYTHING regarding celebrities or politics is right out, but cute animal videos seems to work! It spirals into video production and quality with Alya, something Lila actually knows a bit about, so that works too! She tries to steer the conversation to actors in movies, but whoops, shutting down again! Until she throws out a frantic production fact about Star Wars (Did you know Palpatine’s chair could only turn at a fixed speed, but it was too fast, so the actor had to use his feet to slow down the chair? So during that scene where Palpatine is confronting Luke, he’s scooting his chair around so it doesn’t fuck up the shot) and suddenly THAT gets everyone interested again! Alright, maybe it’s just CURRENT gossip that’s out? No, no, it’s stuff about people, but production stories are cool??

But it’s not her usual stuff that gets her interest. Someone expresses frustration with a history project about Italy, Lila offhandedly mentions a fact about it, suddenly she’s being begged to help with the project. She gets praised, it’s so cool she knows all this stuff! So ok! Stuff about Italy! She can do that! A random fact about sharks she retained from who knows where generates a discussion that lasts almost two hours, so apparently any facts work! Equally doable! She’s looking up random things, writing down any that snag her interest just so she can pepper them into conversation. Did you know that slugs have teeth with the same composition as diamonds?? How nuts is that!?

And through all of this, some of her actual interests, like history, or masks, makes it in, and people seem to like that just as well (they’re her friends, they enjoy seeing her passionate). Stories about her travels still come up, but they are barely altered or even embellished. She hasn’t spun a proper lie in six months. She’s kind of baffled by how “low effort” this particular group is, unaware that she’s actually spending MORE TIME on shit here, it’s just that she ENJOYS looking up cool facts, or researching history, or talking about how masks get made, or auditioning for the school play. The class gets her mask-carving lessons for her birthday, and Lila almost bursts into tears, cause holy shit, they remembered! (Her mom just got her a gift card).

Running out of steam, but just … I’d call it Lila accidental redemption, except in this, this all happens before she does anything she would need to be redeemed FOR, so.

(Also, ugly divorce is still happening in the background. At one point, André tries to flirt with Lila’s mom. It goes spectacularly badly. Chloé sends the Rossi’s an apology gift basket.)

She’s just. So confused

Shoma Uno: Through the Years

Wishing a happy retirement to our two-time world champion, Shoma Uno! I remember the days when he was called the "Silver Prince" because he placed second in Pyeongchang, Worlds, GPF, and 4CC. Well, take a good look at him now: a titleholder for every major competition except the Olympics! Although I had hopes that he would hold out until Milan 2026, I'm glad he was able to step down when he wanted to. Congratulations on spending 21 years of skating, Shoma! You've made us (and Stephane) all proud.

The gladiator fixation is going so strong that it feels like the algorythm of youtube is throwing at me anything with the word gladiator on it.

I ended up finding a spicy gladiator-themed asmr. The talking guy doesn't sound that much like Maximus, but I listened to it anyways just to get ideas with him.

HAHAHAHA I'm sorry but that is amazing :D

I feel you — every time I open YouTube the first 20 videos are Gladiator-themed because I am ALWAYS pulling up videos and clips for references hahaha. Also spicy Gladiator ASMR?? I am not an ASMR person but.... the idea is intriguing. though if he doesn't sound like Maximus I'm probably going to be like ehhh....

I'm just so glad I'm not the only person whose entire internet experience has become overtaken by my obsession with Maximus...

Artist friends, please don't use StickerMule

Full tweet

I've been on the "Fuck Stickermule" train for a few years now after they posted COVID conspiracy bullshit, and it was found out their CEO was a Trump / Anti-LGBTQ+ donor.

Take your business elsewhere. Just because they have good deals occasionally shouldn't mean they should be able to use your money to support shitty recipients.

Some businesses I'd recommend checking out:

StickerGuy -Been using Sticker Guy for like 15 years for my bands stickers over the years. They have some of the best vinyl stickers I've ever used and those things are practically indestructible. Ridiculously good prices too.

RockinMonkey - I've only ever used them for one run of holographic stickers but the quality is so good and I'd definitely go to them again if I were to get more printed.

StickerNinja - Never personally used but I've seen so many people recommend them and their quality shows on their socials. And I'm fairly certain they're BIPOC owned, super pro-LGBTQ+ and are very vocally Pro-Palestine which is a plus in my book!

StickerApp - has been getting a lot of positive feedback in the reblogs! Vograce - I've read some good things about them in the reblogs, and I've also seen some people on Tiktok showing off acrylic keychains they've made with their services!

EDIT [7/18/2024]:

Found this cool document full of information on other sticker / merch printers with a ton of comparisons and examples compiled by Theresa Chiechi! They also have a series of Tiktok videos linked on that page showing the different businesses they've tried. Be sure to check it out if you want a comprehensive look into your best options.

Please feel free to leave any other suggestions!
