More Brainrot!!!! 😄

The prey was fast asleep on the couch and they looked so peaceful and soft... The predator just couldn't help themselves, the predator swiftly and confidently moved towards the couch in a powerful stride as they knew exactly what they wanted to do... The predator quietly clambered onto the couch with the prey being careful to not wake or harm them and then they... Spooned the prey...? What was this predator doing? They were... Hold on... But that wasn't on the script... They were supposed to eat the prey! What are they doing!?!? ...Well then... Let's see how this pans out. The predator softly moved over the prey so the predator's chest would be firmly pressed against the prey and they put one of their powerful arms around the prey in a gentle comforting and warm hug, and then they sighed a sigh of comfort and relief as they just laid there with the sleeping prey in their arms comforting and cooing the unconscious prey while the predator closed their own eyes and just relaxed for the first time in a long while... They never got to get this close to a prey... Everyone always saw them as nothing more than a bloodthirsty beast that would try and gobble you up at the slightest chance... But they never wanted to eat people all they ever dreamed of was holding one close and keeping them nice and safe... But no one would ever give them the chance to do so... Until now... Now they could finally do what they always dreamed of doing... Keeping someone safe and warm... Suddenly the prey moved in their sleep! They turned their body around and rested them on the predator's chest as they let out an incoherent mumble, this small action caused the predator to shed a single tear as they hugged the prey even tighter as they both just laid there in silence... They would have to explain this in the morning but they hardly cared about that right now all the predator could think about was the prey...

I guess not all predators desire to eat people.

currently reading: the many-coloured land; tian guan ci fu; worm by wildbow; this all assuming i am not allowed to say the actual momentary truth of analyse avancée pour ingénieurs deuxième édition corrigée

man looking over trilogy content like this i. it's hard for me to fathom a time before the larworth brainrot

but looking back i dont think it started hitting until the investigations games??? man. i mean it made aai2 extremely rewarding with SO much good content but now i gotta look through the trilogy again

i. i'm not even sure my LARRY brainrot started until after the trilogy. my god. what the hell

god no wonder so much of these exchanges are foreign to me, this was before he became A Part Of My Personality, sheeeeesh

character interview

WHAT THEY SMELL LIKE: cigarette smoke, expensive whiskey or wine, freshly cut wood, leather, whichever meal he cooked that day

HOW THEY SLEEP: usually on his stomach or side, pillows and blankets always hurdled between his arms and legs whenever he sleeps alone. if he has a bed companion then he's cuddled into them with as much physical contact as possible

HOW MUCH TIME THEY SPEND EVERY MORNING GETTING READY: in ancient times it wouldn't be much, just washing his face, doing his hair and breakfast before he trains or focuses on his duties. in modern lucis he spends quite a while. he enjoys skincare, he cooks his meals for the day, he works out. then he's ready to go to the citadel to work.

WHAT MUSIC DO THEY ENJOY: industrial metal actually. some metalcore sprinkled here and there too. but secretly he also loves folk music and genres that mix it in. it reminds him of old times when he was a child, enjoying the festives with his brother

FAVORITE THING TO COLLECT: photos. he likes taking pictures of the people he loves. knives and daggers, always seeking out to buy new ones from the local blacksmiths. galahdan beads or anything that reminds him of his mother's heritage.

tagged by no one, but 'stolen' from @demoiselleblanche tagging anyone who wants to do it. <3

most normal minecraft youtube plot point(s):

variation and references below the cut

justifications/references:

- in season 6 scar famously and confidently announced the convex ate the nho in season 5

- in season 8 mumbo shapeshifted by eating things and only returned to being human after… killing grian. i’m just pointing out a pattern.

- ok so there’s 2 points for grian; the really old ‘cannibal murder’ video. and in the martyn itlw dub 1) grian is a watcher and 2) watchers eat emotions. which is like. basically the same thing in my opinion. it’s a grey area

do NOT separate them....

[arsenicflame]

It's a time-honoured tradition- every time Sam comes across Izzy (and Ed) in their travels, he asks Izzy to marry him. And every time, Izzy turns him down.

At this point, Sam is asking more for the sake of it than any belief Izzy will ever say yes, a remnant of childhood dedication touched with 30 years of heartbreak and regret- though even now, a small part of him still holds out hope. Sam's promises have only got more extravagant over the years, from a job as his first mate, to a captaincy, a fleet at his command, a whole fucking island if that's what Izzy wants- but he knows it isn't though, not really. If Izzy was ever going to agree to marry him, to leave his life and go with Sam, it wouldn't be for anything Sam could offer him. Izzy never did care for flashy shows of wealth, for a ship or to be captain. The only thing that ever mattered to him was loyalty given, and loyalty shown in return. 

It all comes to a head after Stede left and came back, after Izzy lost a toe, lost his leg. Sam hasn't seen him since before things with Ed started to really slide off the rails, before stress permanently set into the lines of Izzy’s face. So, when he sees a dishevelled man with a hoof for a leg in a no-name port, he doesn't even consider the idea that he might know him. It's only when he turns towards him, and Sam catches a glance at those oh too familiar tattoos, he realises this is Izzy, his Izzy, that stands before him.

Knowing Izzy's discomfort with pity, he doesn't treat him any differently than he would in years gone by, positioning himself in Izzy's line of sight before approaching and sweeping him up into a bone crushing hug. 

“Israel-goddamn-Hands!” he exclaims, as Izzy grumbles back a begrudging “Samuel-fucking-Bellamy”, a tradition almost as old as their friendship itself. Izzy might not hug him back, but he can’t keep the corner of his mouth from twitching, just for a second.

(If Sam holds Izzy a little tighter and a little longer than usual, well. That's his business)

By the time Sam lets go, most of the crew has appeared in the town square, drawn in by the commotion. They may have given Izzy his leg and welcomed him as one of them, but still there’s an underlying tension, with nobody quite ready to set aside everything that happened before the Kraken. Seeing him cosying up to an unknown man sets everyone on edge, unsure whether to come to their first mate’s aid, or to assume that they've been betrayed once again.

When Ed sees that the yelling was Sam, his hand goes tense where it's held in Stede's. He knows the routine, has seen it more times than he can count, but as he watches them part he realises that this is the first time in a long time he's unsure of what Izzy's response will be.

Knowing that something’s different, knowing that Izzy's feeling vulnerable already, Sam doesn't go for the same flashy proposal he’s been giving for years. He doesn't promise Izzy the world, he doesn't cause a scene (or, any more of a scene than he already has, anyway). He looks at the fractured man in front of him, takes his face in his hands, and says the exact same thing to him he said when they were little more than boys. “Israel, I have to ask you. I know what you'll say, but I have to try. Come with me. Marry me and sail away with me. I'll keep you safe”

And Izzy… hesitates. He glances over at Ed, at Stede, and says to Sam “...We’re staying in port for a week. Ask me again then”

That's the moment Sam knows there is something deeply, horribly, wrong. He's not just looking at an Izzy who got seriously injured in a fight and is struggling to cope, this is something so much bigger than that- and that Ed has something to do with it. Izzy wouldn't even be considering leaving if he didn't. Whether it was negligence or something more sinister, Sam doesn't yet know, but he intends to find out.
