#thats not rlly relevant im just thinking abt it

[caroldantops]

gonna b honest w u guys. ive been reading more stuff w bottom and/or subby nat lately and like. i get it. i think she finally clicked for me

[vigilskeep]

do you have any refs for Minerva’s relationship with the other dao companions? I did not realize she and leliana was estranged 😭 also if im remembering correctly she makes loghain do the dark ritual? sorry I do like spinning her around in my head and knowing the little details she’s such a great character!!

leliana and minerva did not have a clear breakup in the alistair minerva sense but they did grow apart because of the simple reason that post dao minerva becomes politically at odds with the chantry while leliana is serving its leader. leliana is not a type of person minerva finds very easy to like or trust so while they did grow on each other over the course of dao they never had a simple friendship in the first place

alistair you probably know about bc its kind of the cornerstone of minervaposting but theres a post fully explaining it not much further down in her tag

zevran is her romance <3 i hesitate to use the word “soulmates” exactly but they definitely fit together in a way no other minerva pairing could match

morrigan she has a weird close complicated vaguely homosexual friendship with, i’m sure this is par for the course for f!wardens. they probably could have been in love if morrigan had been willing to pursue it in the start and if minerva hadn’t already gone for someone else by the end, and all that is unspoken but very present in everything about them

sten is i guess kind of the typical high approval relationship as presented in game? not much more unique. a lot of respect a lot of arguing a lot of dry humour. they could hang out in silence comfortably and they’re also both know and respect that they’re very capable of killing the other if their greater purposes ever demand it

oghren she kind of doesn’t pay much mind in origins when she doesn’t have to but he becomes part of the family in awakening. they bond over having their insane shared experiences of the blight, and also over him trying to quit drinking and her trying to quit blood magic which leads to some really wild out of context conversations for the others. and hey, eventually over first attempting to parent at similar times

wynne she has a bit of a sharp relationship with. i think this could vary a lot if i pick her up earlier, but in my main minerva playthrough i picked her up late by which time minerva had absolutely no fucking interest in getting the kind of lectures she grew up with. sorry grandma </3

uhhhh who else. shale idk man im sorry for being a fake fan but shale’s dlc truly does nothing for me it’s unfunny and i dont think abt it at all 💔 this would be written in less harsh terms if i wasnt sleepy

loghain is. well that’s a kettle of fish. minerva spares him because it happens to be a preferable move for her agenda and her way of thinking, it’s not rlly about him as a person at all. she doesn’t absolve him of anything he did, like, she still thinks he’s a bastard it’s just that she doesn’t really believe at all in the concept of justice being done if it doesn’t serve a purpose. when he’s in the party they do build up respect and a weird kind of friendship. he sucks and she’s bitter about what sparing him cost her, but that isn’t relevant, it’s not going to stop her learning from him, or fighting at his side as the best team she can quickly make them, or simply finding him entertaining to talk to. so by the end it’s as a friend that she asks him to do the dark ritual, whatever that means. post dao she agrees with weisshaupt that him being assigned outside of ferelden is wise but they continue to write to each other extremely regularly, mostly on matters of news and strategy but occasionally on the more personal

is that everyone i think thats everyone

[calledbyflowers]

a: i was reading this porn that made me think about the nature of failure success and the mixed success in terms of pain a kind of neutral smooth funcitoning and pleasure in terms of pleasure being a kind of rattling of ur projection of urself into the future kind of like being on the edge of being in and out of synch with consensus reality like just kind of shaving the edges off of it a little bit?

and like thats how to understands it is that pain=failure (contact. hard. rough. opposition. reality as an obstacle. 2ness). pleasure=mixed success (kind of frotting with existence. rlly closest to 3 in terms of scums patented numerology) and finally smooth functioning=successes since u just kinda do it and theres not any fascinating complications or weird shit.

with a success ur just ur idiocosm is easily slotting into place as coinciding with the World and perhaps somewhat pleasantly? perhaps satisfyingly? but not quite with the same electricity. like i think if you find womens boots pleasurable, which i do and they are so pretty, then that does not mean the same thing as if u enjoy womens boots like u could find it satisfying or nice to look at womens boots perhaps appraising them or finding them satisfactory or like otherwise positively evaluating them in some capacity with or without taking pleasure in them and like it would be strange to say you take pleasure with them and you know really just trying to whiz bang in one more wittgensteinian argument for good measure bwao! but like its one that only works if ur bones and my bones agree about ontology :( 

meanwhile were you to suggest that you found womens boots pleasurable in some capacity this would suggest although not necessarily imply a kind of sexual pleasure what the empiricist freudian fuddletwats too up their own asses being cool and not wanting to look like dorks and dipshits and not wanting to talk for so long about like every sort of humanoid experience possible would say fetishes and also maybe i call them fetishes too but its hot when i do that so im winning its hot for me ummmm....

b: get back on track princess

a: so umm not suggesting phenomenology is inherently kink-inclusive im saying it should be cuz if u look to the things themselves ull find that like u can analyze these things to the point where u can identify like "oh all the supposed bad things about these practices that ppl talk abt theyre like to the extent that they exist structurally separable from and u can identify smthn the same between them and other practices

like the risks of various dangers in kink r more or less analogous to dangers which belong to other practices except perhaps to certain extents that can be attributed ultimately to kinkphobia and the enforcement of normative sexual practices as a way of organizing human reproduction on a mass scale in a way which will naturally be structured through the economic form of life of the time

for example, a wedding binds the couple together in an economically relevant way typicially in americatown usa where i live and our society is structured around that being the norm even if allowing for exceptions that like its a common presupposition that if ur married like the default form of marriage presupposes that if ur married u and ur spouse live together.

now if u dont that has 2 b explicable or else that doesnt invalidate the marriage certainly but it does render it odd, non-normative. it might raise question if the spouses do not share a bed for long periods of time except for there being seperated by external circumstances outside of their control. there is an assumption that htey will live together and like to the extent that all the bullshit pop sci stuff i found on duckduckgo was just assuming in all its statements of statistical data that married implies living together like marriage is an economic relationship proximally and for the most part

b: and im sure these pop sci sites present the most up-to-date scientific perspective…

a: shhhh but ig kuhn did say that normal science is the science found in textbooks and for bolzano the ultimate aim of logic was that of correctly organizaing knowledge and the best ways to learn it by organizing the textbooks. so maybe this is like relevant or something?

anyway, the point is that typically marriage is correlated typically with an economic tie between them which formally or otherwise forms a higher-order economic unit of "the couple." their economic lives, their ways of working, spending money, using public services, organizing or simply being crushed by the economic order. im just saying that if ur married the norm of couples living together has its economic impact it can be mapped economically.

but insofar as it can be mapped economically in a certain sense it must fit itself to correlate with the economic order in a sense that like maybe this is a weird thing 2 say but like u have to be able to see with one eye the norm and the patterns? like if u were studying the economy in and for itself the vast plane of flesh u would be able to identify a pattern and name it and maybe even predict it to an extent u could give the kind of mathematical shell of what marriage is in purely formal structural economic terms as like the tendencies for two (or more or even less. like two alters marrying can obviously alter ur spending habits the changes in alter relationships r changes in the habits of conduct of the collective organism or the body if u want to speak cartesian which i cant blame u for comrade i talk about the soul sometimes? crazy right? that kind of talk can be useful sometimes even if its ultimate truth lies in inculcating ways of living).

anyway what was i talking about again? umm yeah it was like umm how marriage is reducible to economic terms?

b: hmmm i can think of counterexamples to that babygirl. you definitely think if you werent stoned off your tits you could- i didnt say that was u imagining me saying that sammy! but its ok ur my good girl just calm down its okay. any i just think that you could find some counterexamples to your claim here.

a: well hmm if i wanna solve this problem and seem cool i could declare a postmodern or maybe better or cooler would be to call it a spinozist turn cuz thats sexy but really its the same thing which is lets think of this not as a reduction but as a natural transformation (though not a precise one, falling short of the mathematical ideal) an equivalence in which neither category is annihilated but both are affirmed as being structurally analogous in some respect and thus insofar as we might understand the totality of the World (which spinoza called God but im calling it the World cuz pantheism is lamesauce blehh) as like the organic sum of all the distinct overlapping spheres of humanoid conduct and correlatively…

umm like shit well um no wait i dont wanna mmmmmnnnn should i be postmodern? idk. wait shit ive reinvented the mind-body problem. thats so funny. just on the basis of like sucking... i mean of trying to think through what honestly this was basically an analytical marxism in style with the amount it sucks off mathematics and especially mathematical logic and in this case category theory understood as a mathematical ontology (the abstract form of an ontology) and like seems very analytic and weirdsauce.

so like maybe ive reinvented the mind-body problem and the easy thing to do is to solve it like i would solve the mind-body problem if i believed it was a coherent problem and not an error on phenomenological grounds unintelligible niff naff like ive reinvented the structure of the mind-body problem but with yknow identity-based or identity-correlated forms of oppression or like…

b: princess im not sure that u specified thats what u were talking about yet.

a: oops. well not explicitly but like marriage is so centrally tied just historically not essentially in the sense of like iris marion young talking abt phenomenology. and so like umm yeah so marriage is femininism town so like the question is kind of acceding a kind of…

a (?): wait... im dumb.... i already said the two were fucking mnnmnmnm natural transformatiosn u baka sammy! u said they were naturaly transofmrations! and that implies u cant do the fucking davidsonian thingy cuz like that requires u to fucking do the thing where they aint identifiable u baka bink! u couldnt have relations in the category of objects posited by one discourse corresponding to relations in the categories of objects posited by another without making them at least logically reducible and so u cant do a davidsonian sort of supervenience.

b: so u cant do the davidson shit sammy. u have 2 choose between postmodernism and modernism.

a: mnmnmnmnmnm can i at least say spinozist 🥺 thatd have a bit of dignity still. postmodern reminds me of my mom.

b: okay i dont think we needed to air that in public like fuck thats a fascinating thing to learn and very much something we could dig into when u arent transcribing our conversation as we speak! speak brainstyle.

a: yeah, sure, of course,l ove... love you mommy…

b: 💋

…wait werent you trying to talk about your rpg that ur making?

a: oh u mean scum (see here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11ahGjj9_GcPSyl84x-gUQQ3GbJy2ZSc9MMJeYZ1BdIc/edit?tab=t.0), the new story game which some are calling a genre unto itself?

b: yes… all of this discussion was ostensibly in support of the claim that the experiential characters of pleasurable vs. satisfying r distinguishible at least in principle and like you ended up in the process getting really into kink and how kink doesn't need to be sexual and how sexuality and romance and all that shit must shape itself to fit into the prevailing economic order of the day? which is interesting even if it is a kind of extended tangent.

a: awww thank you for calling it interesting!! i love you.

b: i love u too princess.

[topazpearl]

So remember my big sbg theory doc? forget that existed, heres the new one

Discusses up to Ep 61. Fast-pass spoiler FREE

Content discussions about death, mental illness, sui.cide; yknow. Heavy Thriller webtoon stuff (tm)

[Hamilton chorus voice] NUMBER ONE: Giant freakin phantompedes and how to escape them

-I was right about the football field lights to try to kill them idea yippee

-HOEWVERR, theres so many attacking the school rn and its freaking collapsing?? I literally dont know how they’re gonna get outta this

-Unless (unless) my Phantom Ashlyn theory is relevant, ashlyn can talk to them and tells them to go away and they… do! idk lol it's stupid but maybe ash has enough girl boss energy to convince them. or theyre so shocked by a human talking to them theyre like "dang ok". Could still happen! 

NUMBER TWO: Phantom Transformation Theory

So it’s Basically confirmed: 

If you die in the PD, you start to turn into a Phantom.

Of course we wont know for sure until we actually SEE it but like, Aiden’s creepy af smile and basically coming back to life in ashlyn’s arms after DYING it’s like, basically confirmed. 

Ash wonders why Aiden snapped out of his seizure so fast compared to Tyler. Severity of injuries could definitely be a factor (tho like, im assuming Aiden got freaking blunt force trauma brain damage which, to me, is just as bad as being impaled). Another factor could be that Tyler died only about 30 minutes into the Time, while Aiden died almost right when it ended. And… we saw how fast Aiden started to “turn”. Red technically never shows us Tyler during those hours after he died. He very well… may have completely phantomized, but when he woke up in the real world, the transformation reverted. I'm very scared abt what Aiden’s gonna be like next night.

SUB THEORY: The Power of Human Connection and Phantom Reversal

Remember how Jasmine (the gang tour girl) asked if it was alright that all the kids got sucked in w/ ashlyn? This implies that 

1. They usually expect 1 person/their target to get sucked into the PD

2. The origami gang has never dealt with a group being sucked in at once

- I believe (and the evil gang doesnt know this) that the kids being together is an integral part of their future survival. Tyler snapped back to consciousness in the hospital after Taylor had her PISSED moment. This moment was similar to Logan’s freakout, in that it tugged the phantom world to the real world, for a second. I think these intense emotions (taylor’s specifically out of anger and worry for her twin), pulled tyler’s “soul” out of the PD and into the RD. 

- Now, you may ask, “what abt if a random person got into the PD and died and went into a seizure/coma? Why couldnt their loved ones “bring” them back?” thats a good Q idk. Perhaps the kids all being in the PD together is what creates this flow, a two-way street, between the two dimensions. 

- Anyway also while Ashlyn and co didnt didnt get into an angry freakout moment when Aiden died, but we all know Ash and Aiden got something developing/going on thats special ♥, and thats what tugged Aiden back (its cliche but its the power of love there i said it). 

- Also NOT saying that the other kids’ concern over their friends doesn’t matter or count (Ben and Aiden are Fam too), but like, i’m wondering if it needs to be a REALLY INTENSE love (familial/romantic/whatever) in order to basically bring someone back from the dead. idk

-interestingly, ty WAS essentially in a coma-like state, like how the spy said, which supports that it’s expected that ppl die in the PD eventually, and go into comas. I’m wondering if those who normally get sucked into the PD and die, theyre dealing with it by themselves, have no one to “pull them back” like taylor and/or ashlyn did, and they stay in a coma. 

-rlly hope the boys arent like “possessed” or smn. Maybe the soul is like, tainted? Those big black eyes man… (ALSO THAT PREVIEW IMAGE WITH LOGAN AND THE BIG BLACK EYES??? WHAT??)

-going off the dead PD ppl turn into phantoms theory>> If a phantom is killed, their connected person in the RD who was in a coma dies fr permanently

NUMBER THREE: Ashlyn and the Phantoms (cool new band name) 

we know the kids are getting influenced by the PD, making phantom noises (further supports phantoms were people theory) but with Ashlyn's "really strong" connection to the PD, she's in special danger. If one can turn into a phantom without dying, it's gonna be her. Ryan the spy said that "the girl" – assumingly ashlyn– should be "especially" at risk of danger. This could be bc she was the one who interacted with the rift, or bc she already has a higher level of phantom influence on her. 

-when ashlyn told the phantom to let go, and her friends to calm down, both times she spoke with a black speech bubble WITH PHANTOM NOISE LINES NEAR IT. this is different than characters who have also spoken with black bubbles (aiden, logan, taylor). obviously these have been with threats/malice, but they didn't have the red lines. These times ashlyn has spoken, the phantom acknowledged her voice, and her friends' spell-like violence trance was broken. Theory: ashlyn not only can hear phantoms, but she can speak their language sort of

-when ashlyn was born, a phantom like touched her in a blessing/cursing sense which is part of the reason why she can hear phantoms and her strong PD connection. possibly even possession???? 

-tldr i want ashlyn to enter her monster girl era 

The evil gang seems confused why the kids have lasted so long. maybe Ashlyn's PD connection goes both ways. she provides a strong anchor to the RD. Maybe the PD is USUALLY all desolate with the pillars that we saw in the finale (maybe it's even an afterlife of sorts?), but Ashlyn makes a huge radius (~30 miles! (assuming kids were driving at least 60mph for 30 minutes)) of the PD around where she wakes up mirror the real world, creating a safer space for her and the kids. meanwhile a normal person that gets sucked into the PD gets thrown into a desolate hell world different from the RD (also maybe stuck there permanently), causing them to die much quicker. 

-maybe this influence is even part of the reason why RD tyler is awake (And aiden)

-Ashlyn's influence extends to jamming the recording devices like some kind of weird phantom static.

-Broke: Ashlyn's parents wanted her to learn self defense and have a knife bc they're in the military. Woke: they want her to be able to protect herself after the phantom scare when she was a baby

-Also THANK GOD she’s finally acting on her intuition. Sm times she’s been like “this feels bad!” and doesnt do anything. Almost makes me wonder if it’s a supernatural intuition based on phantom stuff. Like shes WAY OFF from the hospital and the drama and is like “HMM! Smn going on” 

NUMBER FOUR: Origami gang and Co INC. 

-The gangs symbol is an origami crane (orizuru). the crane in East Asia has longevity as one of its symbolisms, with some myths saying it flies souls up to paradise. there's the popular myth that if you fold 1000 cranes you get a wish.

Heres where the evil twist comes in. The gang boss believes that if he traps 1000 people in the PD as like, a sacrifice, then he'll get a wish and he'll ask for eternal life or whatever. this gang is a cult and he's tricked everyone saying that they'll also get a long life but really it's probably only gonna be him 🤫 So they go around to different haunted places in America and pick ppl they sense can open these shadow rifts and get sucked in. the phantoms may be ppl they trapped in the past and they've turned into phantoms

-Ryan, the guy who's spying on the kids, maybe is ALSO "Mr. thomas". he just puts on a wig and is a good actor lol. this is the reason why he asks about "Mr. Thomas's" fate. What goes against this is that Ryan seems to know all about the PD mechanisms, which doesn't fit Mr. Thomas being confused abt ashlyns hair. Unless he wasn't expecting it

– or "Mr thomas" could just be Ryan's friend or brother or smn. A low ranked guy in the gang that got stuck with roping Ashlyn into Savannah, but doesn't know the truth/details about the PD. 

-the gang mentions that "both sides" are trying to track them. either the government and a supernatural hunting group, or even some force in the PD like some Alpha Phantom like the devil who's like "Where's my dead people quota hello?" or better yet "you're messing with MY domain and I'm gonna Get You". 

-This is based solely on the Boss' appearance and smiling countenance: the gang Boss is Aiden's uncle, his dad's brother, his weird, estranged brother who's also evil probably. I'm really hung on this idea don't mind me 

-you have to be able to make a paper origami crane from memory to be an official gang member /hj 

NUMBER FIVE: Gen story/Character arcs and futures

-ready for a “power of love and friendship” aesop. these kids are gonna be so Bonded now after these traumatic experiences

-i had come up with an elaborate “death order” but thats now completely jossed now so im ignoring that

-PRAISING THE FREAKING LORD THAT ALL THE PARENTS KNOW NOWAND THAT MIKE BELIEVES THEM AND IS HELPING HIS DAUGHTER. DAD OF THE YEAR AWARD. IF ANYTHING AHPPENS TO HIM IM SUEING!!!!!

- SO NOW that all the parents know, and like, have seen all the phantoms and everything and BTW WILL PROBABLY GET SUCKED INTO THE PD AT SOME POINT because they felt the shift like the kids did, they help the kids get to Savannah yippee!! a cool Big family squad force they all hop on a working school bus or smn and drive there. PLs

- the families getting sucked in would be HUGE cause they arent prepared. Logan’s grandparents and Lily are top targets 😭

So the kids are gonna get kidnapped. that's definitely gonna be a thing, either mid S2 or ending. up in the air whether the kidnapping is successful or not. (assuming the gang would be smart enough to get rid of the kids’ phones when they get them)

-actually I'm placing my bets now S2 finale will be them getting kidnapped and it just cuts off there for another awful cliffhanger.

-since it seems Mr thomas will be involved, he'll ask the kids to stay after school to talk abt their failing grades or smn, and then maybe they're hit with knockout gas??

OR the gang has been spying on them so they pick a time the kids all separated and jump them. 

-maybe this is when aiden knowing where ashlyns dance studio is is actually plot relevant!!?? like he (and Ben probably cuz they're always together) are able to escape their attackers and Aiden goes to help ashlyn cuz he wants to make sure she's OK. and she's either fine cuz she's a girl boss and can kick butt, or he saves her oo la la 

–lol imagine kidnapping is successful, gang tells kids why they were kidnapped, (if Evil Boss Uncle theory is true this helps facilitate this) but Ashlyn "goes off" on Aiden yelling and "attacking" him and stuff saying he's part of the gang, he planned it all along etc, but it's all a ruse to have the gang think she'll cause another energy spike (and Aiden gets this and plays along) so assuming the kids are locked up, the gang opens their cell to stop ashlyn, and that's when they escape lol

so like, i THOUGHT ashlyn/aiden was gonna be a slow burn but HAHAHA. i mean not as freaking slow obviously as like Miraculous love square lol, but like slow for thriller standards? But things are gonna be heating up between these two 😏 watch ashlyn be ~conflicted~ and ~in denial~~. And meanwhile poor aiden is a confused boy who doesnt know what ash wants like “b u told me to give u space and now here u are grasping my hand like ur life depends on it” 

Sorry back to character arcs:

Ashlyn: Learn to trust and connect with people, make friends, lean on others. Could be nice if she accepts and admits the kids are her friends by the end of S2, leaving the next season for Aiden/Ashlyn dev specifically? More development about her connection with the PD, which could put friendship to the test. [already getting this with her dad and Aiden so this is great]

Also she has the freaking GUILT like i expected! Watch her think tay hates her for like a week before tay is like “no?? I hate the ppl who did this to us instead” and then they hug it out 👍

Taylor: Willing to bet money the twins are unhealthily codependent on each other. She is on the edge bro. Unhinged feral. Is probably gonna be more angry in general despite it being a bad idea, like the top has been blown off. Bottled up emotions~! 

Still thinking she’ll get close to Ben too (whether anything romantic develops on top of it is debatable, but I can see it. theyve already got a cute little closeness going on)..

Tyler: Get this boy some ~THERAPY~ help he’s so depressed and angry. Learn to have hope again (like ben 😭). He has so much negativity inside him, i dont think that’ll help with whatever is going on with him rn like, hes probably in the THICK of the PD influence. He’s kinda like ash, needs to learn to rely on others.

Logan: Seems to be overcoming his fragility well if the arcade scene is any indication. Still has self-worth issues to overcome due to his parents' abandonment. Maybe we'll learn more about that in S2. That could be a rumor and the real reason he lives with his grandparents is that his parents died but idk why that'd be hidden unless their death was suspicious (like, drug ring?? His gpa got the GOODS APPARENTLY). 

Ben: Still needs to find a new passion for life, i suspect playing musical instruments like the guitar will be the answer (thank you tyler). Tho maybe learning to love his altered voice could happen? (tons of dudes have a rough/husky singing voice that ppl love) But this is probably unlikely.  

Aiden: Good Lord like, Aiden being (most likely) suic.idal in the past (and possibly even still NOW?) has floored me. I figured his loneliness and suspected parental neglect was bad but IT’S BAD. Dude wants to feel alive and not depressed… frick. AIDEN ARE YOU going to therapy??? Do your parents KNOW??? Is that why your parents finally settled down?? Guh. this on top of probably untreated ADHD.

–I’m assuming now Aiden started dying his hair to try to get any fragment of serotonin. 

– Kinda wondering if he grew up in a "toxic positivity" mentality home, where his parents are like "we're so privileged we shouldn't complain" ?

– im actually THIS close to beating Aiden’s parents with a stick.

NUMBER SIX: Miscellaneous predictions, wants, musings & hypotheticals.

-guessing now that the twin’s dad had cancer or smn

-hey uh what about the photo Logan took of the phantom back at the sorrel-weed house?? surely he still has it? can he show the parents?? will they be able to see it?

-Logan saw the whole Aidlyn hug from the roof from his snipper position, change my mind.

-Another “death” will happen in S2, possibly even two deaths. (GOD I WAS RIGHT)

-Mr thomas switches sides and helps the kids, gives them info

-Ryan (the spy) switches sides and helps the kids

-the tour lady Jasmine and the Boss are a hot evil couple 

also kinda want them to have a Rourke & Helga dynamic where he throws her under the bus at the last moment and she's Bissed 

-I want the boss to die by his own evil plan. 

–i doubt a redemption arc will happen but I'd be down for it if done well.

-*grabs your shoulders until they bleed* listen. Aiden saved ashlyn, now I need her to save him. I need this. 

-Taylor and Ashlyn girl time please!!!

-Logan and Aiden becoming closer would also give me joy. big Freckle and Rocky energy. 

-this doesn't have to happen but I think it'd be really funny if Aiden somehow gets the IDEA that Logan has a crush on Ashlyn when Logan doesn't, causing a stupid silly short jealousy arc.

-actually I really need a "can skydive from 10,000 ft but can't confess to the girl he likes" Aiden Clark 

-I've got a bad feeling smn will happen to Ashlyn's parents, specifically her dad

-if any of the gang/cult members hurt the kids or their fam fr irl im gonna >8) lose it

-the Origami gang fails to kidnap the kids and they accidentally create a huge "energy spike", making phantoms appear everywhere in town.

-if the kids DO get kidnapped successfully, I want Ashlyn to be an awesome girlboss and use her knife shoes to help them escape.

-if my puppy fic became Canon that'd be swaggie actually.

-let Ashlyn have a dog 2023

-pov you're in Georgia in the fall and a hurricane hits, knocking out solar power for a few days. what then? :)

-when all this garbage is over and they hopefully all live in the end, I want them to have a fun stargazing party led by Logan cause they can finally enjoy the night (And maybe aidlyn have their first Kiss?? 🙈)

-If there ISNT a "group goes to see Ashlyn in a ballet performance" scene then I'm WRITING IT MYSELF 

-At the end of all things, Aiden and Ashlyn will become a couple, or at least have reciprocal romantic feelings. This is not just my shipper heart talking. I feel it in my brain, in my soul. 

-So we know one or both of Aiden’s parents are writers. If anyone knows if that trophy Aiden’s dad is holding in that photo is a real award, hmu

-a kid going into an angry protective phantom mode to protect another(s) 😳 (aidlyn on the brain but it could be anyone)

-if I had a nickel for every time I've imagined Aiden dying in Ashlyn's arms, I'd have many nickels (IT BASICALLY HAPPENED! GREAT! 👍😭)

-what if having a good singing voice ran in Ben's family? haha jkjk…unless??? but they don't sing like ever cuz they don't want Ben to feel bad 

-man what if an sbg kid “died” by a phantom pushing them down a set of stairs.. 

-Rlly hope that Aiden's parents don't get scared seeing phantoms in their house and hearing other families having phantoms in THEIR houses and thinking the whole town is haunted, and they consider moving which they don't wanna do bc Aiden finally has friends but what else can they do!? angst. 

-John 15:13 for Ashlyn with the others except it's not permanent (I'm not saying ash is a Jesus figure tho WHWKEJEJDJ)

-I rlly wanna see ashlyn laugh

-Taylor actually using her mechanic skills. like maybe the jeep gets damaged [HAPPENED] and she fixes it. I dont want that jeep gone bro its already iconic (update: it’s probably gone bro.. sad)

-might be nice for Logan to have a reflection moment where even though all this horrible stuff is happening some good came out of it like he's not a slave to bullies anymore 

-I want to see Ben happy. well actually I want them all happy pls

OK I've been wanting to ask this for a little bit, but is Shou still in contact with his mom at the point that the story is at rn? Is she up to date with what's going on with Toichiro, Shou, and maybe Teru, or is Shou not really talking to her very much? And if he IS talking to her is he telling her everything that's happening or is he like purposely omitting some things?

Also hi hi hi I hope you're doing well :3

EXCELLENT QUESTION! i havent rlly brought it up bc like. honestly theres so many moving parts to tfs its hard to keep everything relevant, but in my mind i think he is still in contact w her. its not Often that he calls but when he does i think they mostly engage in like, idle chatter. it’s kind of already established in canon that shou’s mom is frightened by her sons power (im looking at you dream omake), but i think other than that she is just generally Uncomfortable with hearing about what shou is doing and shou can kind of pick up on that. so i dont think he calls her often because of that and because hes just so darn busy with stopping world domination

i think shou’s mom feels a lot of guilt over how she handled leaving toichiro and the way their child got caught in the mix, so she’s not really the one initiating conversation. even tho she loves her son and would do anything for him, she’s afraid of stepping up as a mother and putting her foot down against her tyrannical ex husband. because what can she really do against him? and because of all this fear and guilt she’s driven a wedge between herself and shou just so she can survive without suffocating on those emotions.

what really fascinates me about the suzukis is how real they feel, despite their circumstances. and i hope it comes across in how i write them. i think it might be bc im a child of a very messy divorce but they just feel so raw to me in how both parents make vital mistakes that affect their kid. shou is neglected by his father but he also doesn’t really have his mother to fall back on bc she simply isn’t around. not for lack of trying, i assume, but i do think fear is primarily keeping her away and as much as that is understandable it is also something that hurts shou! and the beautiful thing abt the suzukis is its Shou thats the one trying to keep them together. instead of discarding his parents bc of their behavior, he embraces them and gives them another chance (at least in my interpretation). it just rlly goes to show much compassion and empathy shou has and how much he cares about his family

but i think, as of rn, that care is what keeps shou from being constantly in contact w his mom. because he would rather bear the weight of the world on his shoulders than let someone he loves be hurt.

gripping myself by the shoulder * i think oohh nooo im too chill abt it to be *thing* u IDIOT u IDIOT when ur chilling you forget what u were JUST NOT LONG AGO a sniveling anxious stressed the fuck out FOOL and ur like oh im Fine now that didnt exist that didnt rlly happen i mean i knew it happened but its not relevant now somehow im always chillin i am chilling now and will be till the end of time i only exist right now in the chill sesh thats all its ever been YOU FOOL

[inkybinkyboink]

hi sorry i gotta ramble incoherently for a second bc im like Moving Out tomorrow and i have. a lot of feelings. so of course i listened to into the woods and i got to stay with me and now i have even more feelings.

i love the idea in into the woods that "children will listen". i love it. the idea that sometimes, adults, and in the shows case, the witch, want kids to listen and think that they dont because they dont reflect the behaviour theyre being told to do. but the thing is they do listen. you just dont always know it. and sondheim says this verbatim in the show "careful the things you say, children will listen". kids hear the shit you say, and they take to heart. you cant control what that is or isnt. its kind of gut wrenching to realize that, and i remember wishing my mom could see that as well. that we are listening, and the shit she says has an impact.

my mom isnt the greatest, and so i remember relating to this song a lot in high school when i was like super into the show, i remember wishing i could show it to her bc it kind of puts into words what i constantly fail to. this idea that you have to let your kids go, that as bittersweet as it is, theyre not your kids. theyre their own entities and souls. it feels like, to this day, ive never been me in my moms eyes, but rather a reflection of different people she knows. it feels like shes never really let me be myself.

whats frustrating is that the witch is kind of in the right for a brief second. it is incredibly valid for not wanting rapunzel to get hurt. the line "princes wait there in the woods it's true/ princes yes but wolves and humans too" hits hard. i get it. but i feel like its human nature to not want your loved ones to get hurt (ignoring the witch's motives for a second) and i get that you'd want them to stay with you. but getting hurt is part of gaining life experience. speaking very broadly in terms of human connection, you learn from others. you learn what kind of people you like and dont like through the experiences you have with them. and thats something you can only really see if you go out into the world and live your life.

hearing the line "stay a child while you can be a child" (again, ignoring the "with me" that follows) is also really difficult to listen to because it's a really bitter pill to swallow. sondheim is so right in this and i agree. please, be a kid while you can still be a kid. being a kid is precious and fleeting and so so so vital and beautiful. but it's also...an unliveable life. you cannot remain a child forever. you must grow up at some point. and i think that's what im like,,,upset abt. ive rlly hit the point of no return. i have to be an adult now.

on a more hopeful note, if you look at this line and also integrate the witches motivations into it, it becomes really interesting. she wants rapunzel to stay a child, but i think you can grow up and still remain childish. and i dont mean childish in an immature sense, i mean it more like "youthful"? like in the little prince, when they say "growing up is not the problem, forgetting is". im criss-crossing themes and messages here but it just feels,,,relevant.

im scared of forgetting, i think? im scared of becoming cold and distant like the adults in the little prince, or mean and possessive like the witch. i dont want to, and i feel like somehow moving out means im inevitably going to wind up like That, even though it know it doesnt.

theres just a lot going on and change is hard and scary.

Character ideas for the msd au

Philza has a history or architecture teacher?

Xb maybe works at a aquarium or something similar?

Gem as a hero or vigilante with amethyst or dragon based powers with a wizard theme (Esmp S1 based design n all that?) Maybe called The Alchemist? Or something with that type of theme

Fwhip as the same as Gem, vampire based powers (ref to how he was ment to turn into a vampire or something in s1) he is probably in a group with Sausage and Gem (maybe also Pearl occasionally?) Ngl idk what a name for him would be

Sausage would be the same as Fwhip n Gem, maybe more based on s2? With nature magic or maybe he is able to talk to animals. Mythical/Mythos or Sanctuary as his hero/vigilante name? He probably is friends with Joel n brings Bubbles to the doggy daycare a lot

Also Fwhip n Sausage 100% pester Canary/jimmy no matter what their roles are

I also think that Fwhip n Sausage prob toe the line with being villains purely because they are little shits and prob cause a good bit of property damage

Anyways! Ren 100% larps and roleplays a shit ton (you can't change my mind on that) maybe he also works at the dog daycare that Joel works at? Tho if he is in the hero/villain scene, I think he would either be a villain or a vigilante and he would have a king theme (Red king or HC king, but Red king is superior) if red king theme, obv he would be called The Red King. Maybe he knew/knows Martyn? Wether that's in civilian life when he was larping or smth or if Martyn had dipped his toes in the villain side of things for a moment n met him then

~Mezalea anon

:eye: well hello there (apologies this took so long i needed to have reliable free time to answer this) alr >:] time to go down the list and tell my ideas - phil has his own thing (its from a rlly old dsmp superhero au i have, so thats canon in this! they dont live in the same nation(? country? area.) so they aren't relevant and won't be mentioned directly) - absolutely possible! i didnt know if i wanted him to have a bigger role, or just be the resident fish market owner or smthn. he could totally be an aquarium employee - they dont have individual vigilante names, they're just called "wither rose"

- yes gem is transfem fuck it we ball

- sausage and joel are totally friends

- ren is a podcaster to me and im making that canon for the sole reason that i think its funny (plus we need SOMEONE to be a canonical content creator. why not make it roleplay man? his podcast is abt dnd) - ren and martyn are friends as civilians, and martyn is a regular visitor on the podcast

WOEE ASK BE UPON YE HI STROP-- can i get adoration, confession, && smitten for viktor

adoration — how would your f/o speak about you to someone else?

academy era is like. theyve done some very interesting work with chemtech implants and artificial nerve growth that you're probably too stupid to understand. also theyre clearly on drugs and theres something wrong with them. these last two things are objective facts but if you say anything ill treat it as an insult and fucking Get You. somehow despite all this it still takes him like 6 months to realize henis gay. mh era is just yeah thats my work partner. hop off my dick what are you a cop.

confession — how’d the confession happen, and looking back on it, what are your (and f/o’s) thoughts abt how you both were back then?

there are many iterations tht i run through. as one does. but realistically i don't think there is one i think they both just wake up one morning nd realize theyve been making out every other day for three weeks and hey maybe that might be relevant? or something? wick's feelings on the matter are wow i kinda miss when we were young college shitheads with slightly different emotional issues and no body count. viktor's feelings on the matter are [lying] wow i dont miss that shit at all and also love is fake btw. there's a v solid wall between pre nd post mh shit bc he put it there and everybody else just has to kinda awkwardly climb around it like there isn't also a very obvious web of cracks spreading from the points where he's been angrily punching it.

smitten — was it easy for the people around you and f/o to figure out you liked each other? did they get involved in you getting together at all?

sorry for turning this into discord screenshot central i jst think i've said some rlly funny shit abt this already. jayce watching this three-ring-circus of bullshit like cool im going to become gay And homophobic.

[avoiltaire]

been reading hanlim gym lately to match up my progress on stdygrp & i noticed sth abt the two's differences in how they treat martial art itself as a plot device/etc within the actual story..

like in HGym, its obvious that martial art plays a huge role in the story bc matchups hinge on diffwrent styles of martial arts

HG def has more varieties & interesting martial arts/styles, which makes sense bc they hv to show a new one for every new character & there are a TON, which also makes sense bc its a battle royale & tournament style comic -> needs a constant & huge cast of characters tht r different enough 2 sustain relevance 2 be included in a match..

rn im at szn 2 & they mention kichang lee/grim reaper fighting the toe martial art guy & they actually go in depth n explain the technical differences, which def makes HGym super fun 2 read esp as u learn more abt martial arts while reading

& that got me thinking, did we ever get an equal matchup between any 2 in stdygrp?? cuz it wld be hella freaking fire..

we've seen some range frm stdgrp too, off the top of my head i recall..

siwan chun - kung fu (w/ wing chun base?)

minhwan ma - gun fu/kata (interesting!! esp cuz they can bring guns into stdygrp - can't do so in HGym w/ purely hand 2 hand combat rules)

sunchul kim - tiger fist/claw (style of kung fu) (?)

yoon gamin - JKD/taekwondo hybrid base

jiwoo lee - judo base/MMA (new)

moogyun choi/hong ahsung - aikido

park gunyeob - BKB

i assume sehyun is developing a taekwondo base w/ a focus in punching.. with jun i'm actually super interested to learn how he started learning MA in the 1st place/about his base!!

more abt jun; from what we saw he doesn't rlly have a defined/fixed style but he's pretty flexible both physically (or atleast compared 2 sehyun LMAO) & actual fighting style wise. we've seen, obvi, a shitload of different kicks frm him due to his no-fists policy for a while, like axe kicks & high/roundhouses (both which require solid flexibility).

plus id think his style is less efficient but more just straight forceful? cuz we haven't seen anything like the quick low kicks of gamin's JKD coming from him (or maybe i'm js hallucinating bc its 3am & i cannot remember shit rn) okay thats the only example i can pull up rn. i cant rmb if we've seen him doing like kneeing n shit bc then id say jun only really sticks to big, powerful kicks/strikes - wearing the enemy down instead of JKD principles like fastest possible takedown. ofc hes been learning & mimicking some of gamin's moves so that wld blend a little JKD into his style. anyhoo if i had to name jun's style i wld js say definitely MMA

we've also only seen exclusively gamin with open, flat palms in his stances, specific to JKD as the rest all use closed fists/etc. interesting..

...anyway, point is, I'd love for study group to get more technical abt the martial arts themselves!! they did such a good job with sejun (sehyun & jun lol) (jun teaching him how to punch) explaining fists/punches so id love to see more of that in stdygrp, bc I've been seeing sm of it in HGym. its so good

[essiekuko]

why did shannen have to pass literally 3 months after i got into heathers </3

i'd download all of amala str8 up!!

someone liked my post and i got scared so i privated that photo of me 😭😭 i do want ppl to interact w my posts and go viral but its like, this is tumblr, people are so anonymous here and tumblr gives the vibes of an empty school hallway. it gets scary in here

anyway, souncloud to mp3 how i love u

downloading all these mp3s and running the risk of a virus lmfao

i look back at my google photos and realise i looked best in july, the month before i developed my €d 😢 i looked so hopeful too i guess, and happier? i've always thought, since my €d, i finally knew how to be truly pretty, by being in control. but idk. visually, post-july just doesnt look right to me, even tho i wanna believe it's the best. maybe i was just reeealllyy blissfully unaware pre-august. 4n4 august...

ok, i used to not mind how ppl could just profit off of covering lana's unreleased songs. even the songs she did release at one point. but this is insane. i've heard suzi chavo's cover on apple music (it sucked shit but i dont think thats relevant) and i mean, i did kinda respect that. but this insane fr, lana has 1000s of unreleased songs ppl could easily just go and steal. i get that it's her art and all, and she doesnt see her art as products, but idkkk i cant believe i got COPY RIGHTED for an originally UNRELEASED song????? by someone who covered that song??????????????? smh ☠ ppl dont even credit lana too but yk. capitalism wins i guess. suzi chavo is an account that js uploads remixes of songs (sped up, slowed, etc.) and different people's covers of songs that aren't originally uploaded (like ldr unreleased covers). but comonnnn suzi. copyrighting them?????? tf is going on up there lmfao. capitalism wins!!!!

does anybody with €d rlly say they developed it when they like. realised they had it/learned they had it/got diagnosed with it. cause it couldnt be all that info in that particular moment. i think its developed throughout the life, the diagnosis is just when ppl realise u need help. thats why idk how to feel when im like i developed mine in august. cause thats literally just when i found €dtblr lmfao. and then thats when i started to dive into the really unhealthy behaviours and learn how to do this and do that. and learn that its called this and its called this, and these things exist and stuff like that. when i was younger i never understood €ds. my brother would see like one really sk1nny person and just turn to me and say "thats what 4n4 looks like" and i never actually knew what he was talking abt. i couldnt really register it properly. i was definitely leaning into it growing up and it was practically inevitable that i'd become sick with it. once in yr9 me and my friend were, i think, arguing/play fighting and i think f4t jokes were being passed around so i just went "€d" and she got pisseedddd. and she just up and left the table, i didnt even know the weight of what i said. and we didnt talk for like 2 days!!!!! before my friends had to make us make up, and im pretty sure she was lying when she said "oh no i wasnt actually mad at u for saying that. i've just been thru a fight with my bf and i didnt feel like talking to u" ha GIRL. my friend backed me up, said i just had "dark humor" and i didnt even agree nor disagree or even say anything. but we did make up, we're still friends but went to different hs but most definitely we're still friends. last we talked was y10 but thats bc we just drifted apart, im ok with it tho. moving onto bigger and better things. i talk/interact more with her younger sis than her nowadays, we've just grown up and became 2 different ppl who didnt talk to each other. i used to long for her friendship back then but im over it now

hallows night 6

BEAT TRAITOR LORD? WNTRY IS INSANE? i guessed that he would have betrayed to the pale king but I DIDNT THINK HED BE THE ACTUAL MANTIS LORD THAT WAS OUSTED? HOLY SHIT? also love the consistent gender theme that follows the story

erm also his entry said he actually betrayed to the infection. so. like. its a choice u can make sometimes. to give yourself to the infection for more power. weirdge. so this is how it ties into the pale king possibly creating the infection out of greed for more strength and glory

wow found so many npcs. so first off its ROOT LADY? the white lady. I SAW THE HOUSE EARLIER AND WAS LIKE WTF GOW DO I GET THERE. WELL. NOW I KNOW. also i was wondering what all the roots were about!!!!! huh.

yeah she said a lot of important thingns. 1) she was waiting for someone like me to give the half charm to. so ive been predestined or longed for as a solution 2) SHE KNOWS ABT HORNET. AND HORNET IS THE DAUGHTER OF SOME MOTHER? WAIT A MINUTE. I ONLY KNEW SHE WAS THE KID OF THE PALE KING WHOS THE MAM. sidenote lol at hornet being the gendered child thats actually so funny i love it 3) "i never begrudged the wyrms dalliance as bargain. in fact i feel some affection for the creature birthed" WHAT. WHAT DOES RHIS MEAN. THE WYRM? LIKE THE ONE IN THE FAR ENDS? THE KING ? IS IT NOT THE KING ? WHAT IS HAPPENING. 4) WAIT ALSO WHY WAS THERE A WHITE KNIGHT DEFENDING IT OUTSIDE? I EVEN DREAM NAILED AND IT WAS THINKING PROTECT. IT LOOKED SO MUCH LIKE THE WHITE KNIGHT AT THE PALACE GROUNDS?????????? WHATS HAPPENING 5) ok weve got another mission statement from her to take the place of the vessel. confirmation that my job is to suck up that infection. it is rlly interesting that she mentions the reason why the vessel failed is bc it was tarnished by an idea instilled. colonization 6) WAIT A MINUTE I THOUGHT HORNET WAS THE VESSELS DAUGHTER NGL BC THEY LOOK SO SIMILAR WAIT A SECOND . HUH

christ. i also found. mushroom man. what the hell. since when was he there. hwy did he have lore relevant info. wyrms pull bugs into their thrall.....

i also um. found. the key to the love tower. weirdge btw i was so scared it was going to be a fucking. courtesan/consort kind of scene but ITS JUST THE GUY WHOS BEEN TRAPPING ALL THE GRUBS???????? WHAT. THE FUCKING TOM AND JERRY TRAP DIAGRAM. WHAT THE HELL. AT LEAST ITS GONNA BE EASIER TO FIND THE GRUBS NOW

im also. so close. to ocmpleting charms. h

[spaciebabie]

I love your W.A.R. comic!

Okay okay, questions on the ready:

1. What does WAR stand for? (War Against Rexicas? Did I get it??)

2. The times are intriguing! How many hours in a day on planet Cyhhrus? What's the space structure like? (solar system, 2 sun's, weird sun, etc)

3. Is Kat human?? How old is she? Is that measured in cyhhrus years, or Earth years?

Ok imma pause there! I'm sorry if you've answered these already. 😅

HIHIHI I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN ANY QUESTIONS ABT WAR AT ALL THANK YOU FOR ASKING!!!!!!!!

Warring Against Rexicas actually (tee hee what if lore?)

they've got a 54 hour day! the planet is like 3x the size of earth, and is similar in oxygen and water stuff (that's all humans needed ta know when they moved there it was an emergency). they've got two moons orbiting them n one sun (is only a tad bigger than ours)! i havent drawn a night scene yet, but at some point i wanna draw something where like one moon eclipses another that would b fun. oo oo another fun thing!! the side of the planet that kat is on is bathed in darkness once a year during the winter months :3

all of humanity has moved ta cyrrhus. earth is uninhabitable i dont think they could get there even if they tried at this point in time. b/c of the emergency humanity spent a while in space (they weren't that ahead of us technology wise actually, they left in 2073 i believe LMAO i dont have my notes on me but i think thats the year). long way ta say that earth is no longer relevant! they measure in cyrrhus years which are 21 months long (each month is 40 days b/c why not. I CREATED A RLLY BASIC CALENDAR LIKE 2 YEARS AGO TA BE ORGANIZED I GOT RLLY EXCITED ABT THIS!!!). humans just age slower due ta technological advancements (i mean not by much tho they spent the first chunk of life on cyrrhus tryin ta figure out how ta survive n which plants were edible n stuff)! im sure ya could do the math ta find out how old she would b in earth years lol

i spent a whole year world building ("a YEAR?" i got rlly wrapped up in it KSJFHJDKFHDJHF) n honestly i still dont rlly have an explanation for everything

ive wanted ta design some Cyrrhus Creatures™ but havent rlly gotten anywhere w/it. the closest are the popcorn rats, which are kat's favorite animal and the screaming snakes (all the animals ive created have been based on earth ones n im tryin ta Think Outside The Box but HARD!!!)

also fun fact, everything that happens or has happened in our universe is canon ta TWO up til 2073 obviously.

mm funny real life shenanigans go brr
