a side story i never finished

regarding violet, one of luca's younger sisters, and some ocs i havent mentioned before. warnings and such under the cut

as a note: this has been unedited for...a while. it's not up to my current standard, but i am interested in maybe revamping it at some point.

warnings: adult dude making bad decisions regarding a minor, but not in a sexual way? its not really about him, though, it's about violet, and her wanting to impress this older guy and thinking "hm, that's questionable, but it's probably fine!" and. it doesnt really have an ending...but i liked it enough to feel it was worth posting here.

again: there is no sexual content, i dont write about minors like that, thats not what the point is here. this does not include and is not about sexual assault or anything of the sort. it is about bad decisions, all around. reminder: harley is the adult in this scenario.

there is a make out scene but its not descriptive and its not meant to be like, gratifying, or sexy, it's more meant to illustrate that violet is experiencing something new and she's happy in that moment. it doesnt change the overarching intention of the narrative. things may seem okay at first but if you want my opinion, harley is more than old enough to know he's being nasty (and, for lack of a better word, stupid), and he still does everything here.

violet/seb/isabelle are 16, luca/marion are 18, harley is 20

harley's slimy af sorry

Seb—short for Sebastion—hasn’t been their friend for too long, but he has quickly managed to prove himself a worthy third co-conspirator in their deeds. He’s sarcastic, ironic, and he and Isabelle specifically hit it off big time.

Violet’s also his friend—but she knows her sister likes Seb more than that. She keeps telling her to go for it, but Izzy keeps making excuses. 

Now, Violet isn’t interested in Seb, per se, but...well. 

Sebastian has a brother.

A very attractive brother. And he’s more than that—he’s funny, and he’s cool, and he makes Violet feel all fluttery inside. His name is Harley. He’s four older than them—twenty—but still.

Anyway, Violet stayed after school today to get some help from a teacher, and then she finally gets to Seb’s, where the three of them had agreed to meet. Once Seb’s mom lets her in, Violet heads upstairs to his room.

She opens the door soundlessly, and she’s met with the sight of her twin and their mutual best friend sitting on the floor, kissing as they ignore their homework. Violet stares at them for a moment before, just as soundlessly, shutting the door and turning around before she heads back downstairs. 

Somebody owes her ten bucks.

As Violet heads for the front door, it opens, and Harley appears in front of her. He’s added lime green highlights to his dark brown hair.

“Oh! You’re...Violet, right?” he asks. Violet feels her heart start beating a little harder. 

He got which twin she was right!!

“Y-yeah, that’s me.” Violet says.

“You gotta go somewhere?” Harley asks, “Your sister isn’t with you.”

“Oh, no, um...she’s...they’re upstairs, and...um... Well, everyone already knew it was going to happen, anyway...” Violet says, her cheeks warming a little.

“Oh. Oh.” Harley says, “Damn...get it, little bro…” 

Violet snorts. “They got it.” she says. Harley laughs.

He goes quiet for a moment, seeming to be thinking. He’s sort of in Violet’s way, so she just sort of stands there and waits, feeling a bit awkward.

“Since they’re up there having their own fun, we should have some of our own. What do you say we drive uptown?” Harley asks.

A chance to be with the guy she likes??

“Okay.” Violet says easily. Harley takes her hand and leads her to his car, which is parked behind his mom’s in the garage. They get in, and Harley starts driving.

They have a nice time exploring everything there is to see, uptown. It’s especially fun to see Harley’s view of things—Violet finds herself smiling and laughing a lot. 

The sun starts to set.

“How about some dinner?” Harley asks. Violet accepts, and they sit down in a restaurant where they eat dinner. She’s sure to send a group text to her family letting them know she’s okay, but won’t be eating with them. She notices her phone is only at 3%—she doesn’t have her charger, either. She locks it and puts it away to conserve the battery.

Once they’ve eaten, they get back in the car. Violet expects Harley to drive her home, now—but he doesn’t go in that direction.

“I’m gonna have you meet some of my friends.” he says. Violet wants to say that she really needs to get home—she feels a little uneasy. 

But Harley knows what he’s doing, surely, and it’s a Friday night! 

It’s fine...right?

They’re driving for a while, talking about various things and listening to music. Finally, they arrive at some house. There are cars parked outside and music audible from the inside.

Harley leads Violet inside, where a party is taking place. There are tons of people, all standing around with red cups in their hands, with music blasting.

A brown-haired man with a red-haired girl on his arm approaches them.

“Yo, Harley! Who’s the girl?” The man asks.

“Charlie, Lyra, this is Violet. Violet, this is Charlie and Lyra, my friends from school.” Harley says.

“N-nice to meet you…” Violet says, feeling a little shy. She’s starting to get a faint feeling that she wishes Isabelle was there. 

“...whoa, is she a kid?” Lyra asks.

“So? She’s 16. She can handle this kind of thing.” Harley says, “Right, Vi?”

He called her Vi!

“Y-yeah! It’s cool. I’ve been to parties like this…”

At least, ones held by other kids… she thinks.

Harley takes her around, introducing her until he’s called into another room. She follows him, and finds some guy doing shots at the bar. He immediately looks at Harley and points at him before slamming down the empty shot glass he had in his other hand.

“You and me. Right now.” The guy says.

“Fuck yeah.” Harley says. Violet feels uneasy...should he be drinking if he’s going to be driving them home?

She stays quiet. Harley’s an adult, he knows what he can handle.

It’s fine.

She watches as a crowd gathers, and they drink. It’s vodka, of course—there are five lined up for them each.

“You trying to get me drunk, Beanie?” Harley asks.

“That depends on you.” Beanie says.

Violet watches as they drink. Harley comes out the victor, appearing just slightly impaired.

After, he pours Violet and himself cups of punch…"punch".

“Think you can handle big boy juice?” Harley asks.

“Of course.” Violet says, just a little hesitantly. She takes a sip and nearly spits it out.

She knows that if her Mother, Father, or Luca could see her, they would be so disappointed.

She sort of follows Harley around until she feels her phone ring. When it does, she sees that it’s already past midnight. Her curfew is at 11pm on Fridays.

Just as she goes to accept the call, her phone does dark, shutting itself off. She remembers it only had 3% battery left...it must not have been enough.

She finally works up the courage to get Harley’s attention, tugging on his sleeve.

“What’s up?” He asks.

“I need to get home. It’s past curfew and my family is probably getting worried. Someone tried to call me, but my phone died.” Violet says.

“Ah, we wouldn’t want anyone to think I kidnapped you or something...alright, give me a few minutes and we’ll hit the road.” Harley says, “Stay here.”

Violet sits on the couch, and watches Harley walk off into another room.

An hour passes. At least, it feels like an hour. She finally gets up and starts looking for him, and she finds him...at the bar.

“I’ll win next time.” Harley says, slurring a little.

This makes Violet super nervous. She goes up to him.

“Harley, can you still drive like this?” She asks. She’s panicking a little.

“I doubt a single person in this house is fit to drive. Let him sleep it off for a while.” Lyra says, “C’mon big boy, let’s take a nap.”

Violet follows them upstairs, and Harley gets right in bed.

“Violet.” He says, “C’mere. Lay down with me.” 

Violet can’t find it in herself to refuse. She leaves a good gap between them—but Harley takes her hand.

“You’re seriously one of the prettiest girls I’ve ever seen.” He says, obviously somewhat intoxicated. Violet blushes.

Harley falls asleep. And so does Violet, eventually.

When Violet wakes up, she’s warm. And something warm is around her. She opens her eyes to see Harley, and finds that he’s got his arms around her. 

She breaks out of them just enough to check the time. 4:27am.

She’s so fucked.

Violet sighs, laying back down. Harley stirs, then, and opens his eyes, looking right into hers. She feels her face warm. He puts a hand on her cheek, and she lets him kiss her. Her heart’s pounding in her chest.

“Is that ok?” Harley asks. Violet hesitates before nodding.

So he kisses her again. And again. And…

She’s never made out with anybody, really, but it’s making her feel warm and tingly. She likes it, she thinks.

And then she remembers the time, and pulls away.

“I really need to get home, Harley. My family doesn’t know where I am.” Violet says.

“Then come with me, my Princess, and I will return you to your door.” Harley says smoothly.

Harley finally drives her home, where there are lights still on. Harley walks Violet up to the door, which opens as they approach. 

Luca, their Mom, and Marion step out, and Luca is obviously angry, which immediately makes Violet feel terrible. Luca isn’t the angry type.

“Are you the reason my little sister has been missing all night?” Luca asks

“She’s old enough to handle herself.” Harley says, scoffing.

“Have you—have you been drinking?” Luca asks, “What the fuck is wrong with you?”

“Excuse me?” Harley says.

“Did he touch you?” Luca asks Violet. 

“Nothing happened that I couldn’t handle.” She says.

Luca nods, seeming to accept this, and then very suddenly punches Harley in the face, making those around him gasp.

“You piece of shit.” Luca says, “She’s 16!”

“Holy shit, Luca.” Marion says. He’s only seen Luca this upset on very specific occasions.

“What’s the difference between us and you and Marion?!” Violet demands.

“Me and Marion are the same age! We’re both adults!” Luca says, “You’re not legal, Violet!”

“Okay, okay! That’s enough!” Eve says, “Violet, sweetie, come inside and go to bed. We can talk more about this tomorrow, when your father comes home from his conference.” 

Eve takes Violet inside, but Luca hasn’t backed off yet.

“If I ever find you near my sister again, I swear to god, I will—” Luca starts, but Marion cuts him off.

“My boyfriend has been worried sick all night because you decided you wanted to fuck around with someone too young for you.” He says, “Grow up.”

Inside, Eve gently leads Violet to the stairs.

“Mom, I didn’t—“ Violet starts, but her mother holds up a hand.

“We’ll worry about that tomorrow. Go get some sleep. I’ll deal with your brother.” Eve says.

“…okay.” Violet says.

She heads upstairs and quietly opens the door to her and Isabelle’s room. Isabelle herself is asleep in her bed with her phone in her hand.

Violet feels awful when she sees that she’s the one Izzy had been texting.

Violet quietly changes into a night shirt and finally plugs her phone in before going to bed.

yee.

does what i explained earlier make sense after all that?

anyway i had plans but i wasnt sure how to execute them. ill probably use this as a basis for something later but it needs...a lot of work. for one, why am i so bad at using adjectives and stuff?? thats a big critique i have regarding a lot of my work...

that's all for now!

[jrueships]

WHOEVER THE FUCK IS RECOMMENDING MED PPL TO GO INTO RADIOLOGY JUST CUS IF THE MONEY, IM GONNA FUCKING gET YOU

[katescribblesabit]

I just want to tell you that I love your Fairy Timmy it’s amazing and I’m low-key obsessed! Feel free to use this ask as an excuse to share anything you haven’t gotten the chance too.

still cant believe how much this au is popping off lmao

mmm, how about we talk about Timmys Fairydoption contract a little bit cus i was thinking about what it entails. idk what all the details would be, because im not writing a whole ass contract for this au haha. But with a bullet point style, this is what i had in mind what the contract would cover and how it works:

legal fairy citizenship

updated personal documents, which includes name change to Timothy Fairywinkel-Cosma

legal guardianship goes from the Turners to Cosmo and Wanda

full fairy conversion, with average magical abilities

Timmy cant have any direct contact with previous human relationships

no human-disguise until like "10" decades later (number isn't fix. At least until people wont recognize him anymore)

the contract is currently stashed away in a safe in Timmys apartment. only Timmy and Wanda know the password.

if the contract happened to be destroyed Timmy would turn human again (and Ymmit would explode into nothing but his tophat).

But no need to stress, its only a visit to the DMV away to get it renewed, and everything would go back to normal.

thats all i have for it now, things might change a bit or i might add stuff! but this is it

Please tell me about the great emu war of 1932 :3

"Haha Australia lost a war to emus twice"

NO BUT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND!!

Here's why:

First, I don't believe foreigners know how BIG emus are, and how much of their stocky main body is just layers and layers of feathers

This is Peck. He doesn't actually Peck but he LOVES the LADIES and for reference, that's me as he's uh... trying to woo me. I'm 4'11 / 149cm tall and in that photo he's not standing at full height either because he's preparing to get lower and ahem, grind. He is also a juvenile.

Emus are typically 5.7 feet/1.75 meters tall, but they have been recorded to get up to 6.2 feet/1.9 meters.

So imagine you've got this big ass dinosaur bird with the most t-rex looking feet perfectly designed for running. Yeeting. Skeeting. Killing you maybe. And now take into account these flightless fucks can run up to 62 Kilometers per hour. THATS 39 MILES PER HOUR TOP SPEED.

Now add 20,000 emus.

So 20,000 emus against poverty-stricken farmers with failing crops, farmers WHO WERE MOSTLY WW1 VETERANS BY THE WAY. Yeah nah.

Here's a visual to help y'all understand how insanely large emu groups get.

Onto why the hell were there so many emus on the farmlands (even tho... yknow... the emus and the local indigenous were there first but we won't get into that.)

Basically a big drought made the horde of emus move away from their usual dwindling territory, onto the sprawling Australian "farm lands" and remember I mentioned their feet before? BIG STOMPY. Whatever crops that had somehow managed to survive the severely vitamin-deficient soil and grow, did not in fact, survive the dinosaur feet as the emus strolled through, pecking and foraging the ground along the way.

The plight of the veteran farmers didn't fall on deaf ears, but the Australian government severely underestimated the power of 20,000 emus by a LONG shot. Plus they weren't all that interested either, until at least it was reported that the emus were destroying the Rabbit Proof Fence. What legends.

For the first "war" the government sent 3 men.

Yep. You heard me. Three guys. Major Meredith, Sargeant McMurray and a soldier by the name of O'Halloran.

They had one truck with a machine gun, and probably other guns, but between them roughly 10,000 rounds of ammunition.

So off they went. To wage war against the progressive emus breaking the symbol of "White Australia" AKA the Fence. Oh and also I guess the starving vets.

This is it. This is what they had.

Locals from all around joined in the fight and tried to herd the roaming groups of emus into the murder range but the emus had a tactic. One that us Aussies use at bush doofs when you hear police sirens- and that is to SCATTER.

They only killed "a dozen birds" from a group estimated to be around 1000. It didn't help that the machine gun jammed during this organised ambush.

And by then, the Emus clicked onto what was happening. They split up into smaller groups, observed to be led by the largest sized male who kept an eye out for the enemy. Never again did they risk coming together as seen before.

The war was lost. Only a few more attempts were made that had little success and Ornithologist Dom Serventy concisely summarised the whole operation.

I want to remind you all that this is a recorded statement, kept on file in legal military documentation

"The Emu command had evidently ordered guerrilla tactics, and its unwieldy army soon split up into innumerable small units that made use of the military equipment uneconomic. A crestfallen field force therefore withdrew from the combat area after about a month."

Let's move onto Emu War Part Two: Unsuccessful Boogaloo

Heads up by the way, TW below.

Emus were still, y'know, Emu-ing about and the drought didn't let up either. People were still dying of starvation, becoming homeless and committing suicide. It took the Premier of Western Australia, and a Base Commander in the military penning letters and using media pressure to finally convince the government to give it another go.

Major Meridith returns to the War and having learnt from practically everyone's past assumptions of the highly intelligent sonic-speed bird, brought success. And by that I mean, more success than the previous war.

Ultimately only 5% of the 20k Emu Army were ever killed, and even that is debated since it is more than likely they inflated numbers of kills to lessen the damage of being completely inferior to the superb qualities of the Emu.

A Federal parliamentarian (like a senator) when asked about whether there should be a medal made for the conflict, he replied with:

"Any medals should go to the emus who had won every round so far."

And of course in true Aussie fashion, the Defence Minister who supported and approved for the Emu War 1 and 2, was given the title by the Australian public, and international conservationists of ‘Minister for the Emu War’.

Ouch, but also, Not Every Problem Has To Be Solved With Guns.

Ironically what worked far better was the implementation of fences to keep the Emus OUT and unfortunately, a bounty system that saw many locals and professional hunters alike have FAR more success than an entire military operation. 57,000 bounties were claimed in a six month period after it being introduced in 1934.

Thus concludes the Great Emu War of 1932.

If you're asking why I know this, I studied it when I was 16, and made an entire poster to which I gave it to my Japanese Teacher. For context: I was living in Japan. Going to a Japanese School. And teaching my poor English teacher about this Emu War that he only believed once he looked it up. As a parting gift I gave him a poster. Shout out to Kawamura-Sensei you tried so hard not to laugh at the poster but I won that war.

Here it is. All the quotes on there are real too!

Hey! I love ur blog and all the bears :) i do wanna ask about the bears’ names im sure you’ll explain about specific bears in the identification posts but are the bears named by the park or in the cam chat? and do the names tend to be more random or based on physical/behavioral traits? thanks i hope u have a good day ❤️🐻

heya!! so i'm gonna be putting an answer to this question in the faq i'm writing up also, and when i do so i will cite sources and all of that stuff. this is me speaking off the cuff, without looking into exactly what years policy changes were made or anything like that.

that said, though:

all non-cub bears that frequent Brooks River are given identification numbers by the parks service. if a bear only shows up occasionally, they are not given a number, and cubs are referred to generally in relation to their parent, like 806jr or 132m. when a cub emancipates and becomes independent, they will then be given their own identification number.

historically, some of the bears were ALSO named by the park rangers who were monitoring them. since the rangers were doing the naming, the names that the bears ended up with could have been given to them for any number of reasons -- Bald Butt was so named because his shed pattern meant he had a bald butt in early summer, Backpack was named because he rode on his mom's back while she fished when he was a cub, and Brett was probably named Brett just because the ranger felt like she was a Brett. and to stress this point, not every bear monitored was given a name during this time, just some of them -- mostly the bears that rangers saw the most frequently or who stood out to them.

but since then, the parks service has changed their policy -- animals being monitored are not to be given official names. i think this is a good stance for the parks service to have, because a consistent issue with wild animals and the public is the way that people either pet-ify or humanize them. this humanization and pet-ification of the bears can be dangerous for the people and the bears, and i think this policy is especially important for the rangers, who live and work in close contact with these bears for the whole season.

but obviously, the bears that were already named already had names. Brett was already Brett. Holly was already Holly. Grazer was already Grazer. you can't just put that back and act like the names don't exist. so the bears who already had names given to them under the old policy largely kept them when the policy changed. thats why so many of the bears with names -- otis, holly, chunk, grazer, etc -- are older.

the names you see people use for younger bears and bears who showed up after this policy change -- studious, social, marshmallow, no pants, etc -- are all just fan names, things people in the bear cam community came up with. you wont see these names on any official documents put out by the parks service, you wont see these names during fat bear week. they're names that people watching the cams came up with, for any number of reasons. some of them arose for practical reasons, like studious and social -- when they were cubs, one of them carefully watched grazer's fishing lessons and one of them kept running off during those same lessons to socialize. so people started referring to them as "grazer's studious cub" and "grazer's social cub", which eventually got shortened to studious and social. now that theyre both subadults, the names have just stuck. other times its because they did something unique, like 903 Gully, who started hunting, killing, and eating seagulls. but again, these are fan names, not official ones.

since there is often not a reason to name the bears, and because without the support of the parks service it is hard to make a name stick, most of the more recently identified bears just have numbers and no community-given names.

i hope that answers your question! sorry that the answer is so long, its a bit complicated to explain, haha.

[sollucets]

tag game for @khaopybara !! thank you for thinking of me i needed the boost 💜

1. why did you choose your url?

my url is from ‘sol lucet omnibus’, a latin phrase that means the sun shines for everyone. a lot of my urls & usernames and whatnot are sun themed, so this is just another in a long line. for a while it was ‘solclaw’ while i was in a werewolf phase. but i dont plan to change it again

2. any sideblogs? name them and why you have them

ahhh…. the secret come out. i guess? i have two sideblogs. @jinjjayo is my kpop sideblog, which i have not advertised having so far but does exist. i also have @solref, which is just where i collect tutorials & other reference stuff.

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

not consecutively, i took breaks, but my first blog was made in 2011. :0 i’ve had three main blogs over the years.

4. do you have a queue tag?

i do! i don’t use it often but i tag things that are queued with ‘ghost post (queued)’

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

the original one, i made because my cousin recommended it to me. we shall not speak of its url. this current one was made when i started seriously writing again (thank u rasmr <3)

6. why did you choose your icon?

i love ayluna. my babygirls. that’s all there is to it lol. im also quite fond of the lil stars i edited in

it is currently this set of the 3wbf trio doing their puzzle piece hugs, at just over 1000 notes. 🥺 im happy they deserve it

6 💾What is your document of your wip/ a wip called? (not the stories actual title but what you’ve saved it as)

aaaand

10 🤡How many Wips are you actively working on?

Hi hi, from this ask game

6. Whats my wip title

The wip I am working on now is titled:

C4 P1 D1 RR catch up

Which stands for “Chapter 4, Part 1, Draft 1, Ratts Race, Chapter Title (Catch up)” And it’s actually a place holder name because I had no idea what to name this chapter… I don’t even have a proper structure for this chapter yet since its in between plot points but necessary for info… Its called “Catch Up” because theres a time skip with a brief explanation of what happened during the time skip and “catching” the readers up to date. Im not even sure about it chapter wise but was jotting it down just to keep the rythm of my writing going in hopes of just fixing it later haha

10. How many wips am I working on

Technically right now im focused on three. Hamster Chapter 11, Ratts Race chapter 4, and Febuwhump Prep!!

Febuwhump prep isn’t so much of a writing wip but it is a project that takes a lot of my creative energy so im going to count it in :) especially since thats what I worked on tonight!!

[oswednesday]

My favorite Laius scene is when he feeds that one twink monster meat while the guy's trying to manipulate him. With the party in the background going full 'you do not have to to make him believe your on his side' and the twink having the face journey of forcing himself to eat it and go "yummy"

While laos just watches happily, presumedly fully aware that his new friend perhaps didn't want to. Linus just the kinda guy to walk up to someone and do some dom action but no one believes he tops.

They just look at his face and go "hours innocent looking, he must be a nice guy". Also the ask box broke 5 lines so so if there's Missouri i apologies

WARNING DUNGEON MESHI SPOILERS AHEAD

sorry to tease you but every way you’ve spelled his name in order: elvish/dwarven/halfling/gnomish the way i see it is, like he plays up not remembering kabru, because the person who is showing interest isnt the same guy who keeps bothering him, like that doesnt make “sense” but he does remember being “bothered” by kabru, he brushes him aside as he has this sort of energy that laios is just fully uninterested in but kabru is also Good with people, so good that it coaxes out this face of laios that he hides from others like that full frost, disgust stand on the top of a tower and be like youre all ants thats a bit dramatized but i think thats the intent

you’re kabru who can give everyone exactly what they want but doesnt know how to express his own heart's desires and this guy who is charming and bubbly with everyone blasts you with a cold shoulder this guy who lives solely for what he wants, you are kabru and you know he has no actual connections cause youve like ye old deep web stalked him but you cant really get much deeper than that because you’re kabru and you dont have any action connections with anyone either despite how much you’re there for everyone and how you have all their needs memorizes and he isnt ready to deal with that! it isnt until he meets mithrun and while hes still doing that im caring for you its like he doesnt have to pretend to be a billion things like tough and mean he doesnt want to be, he wants to be like a soft young man with friends who like him for who he is, he knows mithrun isnt planning to twist the knife in his direction unlike laios just doesnt seem to need anything and has a knife to twist

of course, he does! have needs, but its like the same thing with shuro on a level, he was keeping close to him cause of his nearness to falin, like would he have “let” falin be taken away in marriage to another country? um nope your brother in law is here too haha! most likely im like he says ill let falin know your feelings not you tell falin yourself when we get her back like, as if! but its also something he easily gets caught up in like oh your antagonist feelings towards me really ran that deep then show them? whats wrong with you why lie about what you want? you want falin so you must also want me, a world where he isnt the center of her world does Not exist to him (even before they fight we know his feelings are like this cause hes like shuro you look great, like oh you want this man to die and be dead)

like to laios kabru’s behaviors are predictable, human and boring, hes uninterested, but laios has this moment of like Oh! i can give that back! i can give you something human and predictable, And he does and its obvi that it was a thing he was just doing, even if he “meant” it, he shows a truer feeling to izutsumi when shes like DIDNT YOU PROMISE!! ; 0 ; when hes about to do something crazy town and hes like ah well have that dinner for me and leaves and he doesnt bother hiding stuff from her like he respects her beast self and relies on it so much that she can tell the moment hes off, there’s a lot of background stuff we dont really See much like mithrun’s story because it wouldnt "make for a good story", its like roleplaying players do between sessions with each other or with the dm or written documents it creates a very cool vibe i think in a different story it would be like this massive hole in the writing but its filled in by the familiarity of a roleplay group? Its a lovely tender story but i also liken it to like a theatre of cruelty, its wild, its questioning popular spiritual beliefs, theology, he literally does a dante’s inferno painting thing

[arolegos]

befotr tje day ends. I need like to Recap the stupid ass shit that happned today .

ok so . today (saturday), we had a test scheduled. HSK — it's a mandarin language test to examine chinese proficiency (think the mandarin version of IELTS) . yes I have a Lot of issues of it taking place on a saturday and in the first week of school, but i digress. i had accepted that this would happen last semester.

the examination takes place in a building just a little bit over an hour away from my house. whatever. ive driven to further places, thats not an issue. the test is scheduled to start at 9 and end at 12 but we're expected to arrive before 8 (to register our IDs n documents), so i wake up at 6 to get ready and drive off at 7. Not the worst either; i usually wake up earlier on normal school days.

FIRST ISSUE THAT ARISES. THE FUCKING TEACHERS WERE LATE.?.??? They were the mfs BITCHING on us to be early or else we'd get our names crossed off (meaning we'd have to Pay for the exam. that theyre FORCING US TO TAKE. I DONT FUCKING NEED HSK????? ONLY A FEW STUDENTS IN OUR GRADE DO?? LIKE. 5 IN TOTAL? IM NOT GOING TO A COLLEGE THAT REQUIRES HSK OR TOEFL. A MAJORITY OF MY CLASSMATES DONT NEED THIS. AND. they SWAPPED our mandarin topics from the casual one we were used to, to THIS.) . WHATEVER, YOU KNOW? i laughed it off w some friends while they distributed the paper documents to us. guess i gotta wait longer in line now because theyre late. whatever, try lining up for a ride in an amusement park, right? thereve been worse

test starts. i definitely flopped. not an issue, i already Knew id suck ass. my mandarin is INCREDIBLY limited and i can hardly hold a conversation (yes yes embarrassing as someone of chinese descent). a few people were held back because their computers lagged or shut down; fortunately, mine did not. laughed about my very likely 7/100 expected results with my friends. laughed at our answers (mine that was straight up ": (" because i forgot the pinyin for a word and couldnt put it down; my friend who wrote "我吃勺子" (i eat spoon); my friend who wrote "她喜欢他因为他给她一张纸" (she liked him because he gave her a piece of paper); my friend who forgot the word watermelon and literally wrote "我吃红水果用勺子." (i eat (the) red fruit with a spoon)

second test starts. its HSKK this time (speaking test). again, already knew id flop. it took me like 5 questions to realise i was meant to repeat what the speaker was saying into the mic for the first part (to clarify: the audio file does Not repeat for questions meaning i Missed those), and misread a question on the last that read "what activity is good for your body (physically)?" as "what activity do you like?", so my answer was "i like drawing". Laughed this off; me and my friends exchanged our stupid ass answers (some fun examples that i couldnt stop laughing at: when asked to repeat a sentence, my friend answered with her name; when asked to describe a situation where a woman is running late, my friend described what she wore; when asked "what activity is good for your body", my friend answered "my hair and face"; my friend who, when asked his chinese name, responded with "小妹")

30 minute break passes s'all fun joy and laughter. im in a great mood . amazing even.

fun heehees and hahas. great time overall tbh, even though i was for sure getting at most 12/100

and then Boom Im in despair

the staff entered the room and called 7 candidate numbers. Then he said; "Okay, you guys are free to leave. The rest of you, your tests had an error."

EXCUSE ME? 7? 7 OUT OF, WHAT, 90? ONLY 7 PEOPLE DIDNT GET AN ERROR?

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES THAT 4 OF THEM WERE MY FRIENDS?????

HELLO. THIS IS A PLACE SPECIFICALLY MEANT TO FACILITATE FOR AN ONLINE EXAM. .? WHY ARE THE COMPUTERS BREAKING.WHY ARE THE SERVERS LAGGING.....

WHAT.ever. NO issue. delay, that doesnt matter. still had other friends nearby so i left my seat to talk to them. 10 minutes pass and they try to restart every computers HSK software one by one — MINE for some reason REFUSED to close. WHATEVER. i just stayed with my friends for a bit longer.

40 MINUTES PASS. IM ON THE FLOOR LITERALLY PRAYING TO BUDDHA AND EVERY OTHER GOD IN THE UNIVERSE. I HAVE BLOOD STREAMING DOWN MY FACE I FEEL LIKE IM ABOUT TO TURN INTO ERROR SANS and then it works.

it closes after maybe 15 minutes. Okay. Thats fine. they boot up the software. Guess what fucking happens guess what hapIT LAGS. IT FUCKING LAGS IT GETS STUCK ON THE LOADINGFUCKING SCREEN. GUYS I FELT LIKE IT WAS 2020 AGAIN AND I WAS BOOTING UP GENSHIN IMPACT ON MY ON-THE-VERGE-OF-EXPLODING, DIY-BOMB LAPTOP, AND I WAS STUXK ON THE BRIDGE LOADIBG SCREEN. ALL MY FRIENDS? FUXKING CLEAR. THEY WERE FINE . IT WAS LITERALLY JUST ME.

Yay! 55 minutes of waiting ❤️ 80% of everyone who got an error has left, bc they already reloaded back and did the questions that were deleted off bc of the error. Test loads. im expecting to have to retake 2-3 questionsWRONG!!!!!

I HAD TO RETAKE NONE. ALL MY ANSWERS SAVED. IT JUST DECIDED TO ERROR AT THE VERG LAST SECOND I GUESS? BC ALLL MY ANSWERS WERE STILL THERE????????? i actually killed myself

my dad is there. I say hi, ask him if we're going home. he says NO. He Tells me we're waiting til 4 pm because my younger sister also had a HSK test scheduled today, but from 1 til 4 instead of my 9 to 12. Ok... i tell him thats Fine.

i submit and LEAVE. i CRY BLOOD AS I LEAVE. I GET OUT OF THE EXAM ROOM AT 1 PM. 1 PM. WHAT THE HELLwhatever.

friend leaves at 4 exact. i say Bye and smile and im happy as Fuck and then IM NOT. i look to my left and see my sisters classmages leaving; yay! yippe! fun! i get to finally leave this fucking place!

spent 1-2 hrs with my friends walking around the streets and then walking to a mall . my feet were killing me but the food we ate was GREAT. i had a fun fun time with my friends!!! since they were there when i discussed that w my dad, they had scheduled to leave at 4.

2 people get out and no more comes.

MY STOMACH SINKS.

guess what happened to my sister.Guess what happeTHE SAME SHIT HAPPEBED TO HER. COMPUTERS AND SERVERS WERE LAGGING AND CRASHING FUCKKKK OFFFFFFF

[fictionfixations]

i found a fic where midoriya is ranpos reincarnation

and now i have the story outline sorta of a bsd x mha.

also there are references to things and things im trying to exlpain to myself to remember later but maybe you wont and im not gonna explain that haha this is kinda influenced but i also dont wanna write fuckin dostoevsky because how the fuck do you take him down that man is probably smarter and more dangerous then afo imo?? i dont want to make the book a thing (LOOK. the manga is still in its 'what the fuck is happening this is chaos' and the stuff thats mentioned is kinda in that part?? okay so the guy with the perfect crime ability, i know thats been adapted to the anime but the manga hasnt ended, they havent figured out the actual solution to the story thats going on so also 'how the fuck am i meant to do that im so uncreative'

ahaha also the mention of a shatter thing is a reference to some other mha fic but haha go look through my bookmarks i dare you, i copied and pasted an excerpt that explained what happened with shatter. its nice. :))))

okay so just because i started a multi-chapter fic that i actually wanted to finish the next thing i know i have so many documents open with multi-chapter stories and im repeating a mistake i made that ended up with a lotta discontinued fics

instead of being kicked out of the dorms because of outing the guy at the police academy for like cheating on his s/o or whatever, he reluctantly continues and becomes a detective. the youngest ever, and the one who has ended up solving the most cold cases ever.

he becomes tsukauchis problem he is also quirkless. he was never told that he had an ability by fukuzawa-dono. but he is insanely smart, even more then nezu

hes taught by the law enforcement there that not everyone knows what he does, so its important to point things out

ranpo doesnt have much skill in protecting himself, but his knowledge lets him predict some things, as a faux foresight. he gets bested by a new organization (The LOV? except they have more power, and recruit Mushiro Fushiguro or whats its name, the guy with the Perfect Crime ability. Ranpo got involved in the investigation against the LOV. Someone is killed as a threat, and right before his eyes all the evidence is gone, and he has that feeling that something is missing. ..Ah. It's threatening him not to go any further. He does.), and tsukauchi gets hurt, therefore the police department is deemed too risky and is moved to the custody of one Aizawa Shouta. (ofc, erasermic, and shinsou is there) He ends up shadowing Aizawa at his job, having already graduated, and technically class a's senpai.

on the meanwhile, the investigation team collaborates with the Armed Detective Agency from Yokohama, noting the existence of an Ability User they had been chasing down, having been able to figure out that the murder of a certain Mystery novel writer had been in close-ish contact with a man with an ability. 'Perfect Crime'.

like lady nagant, the guy fuckin DIES after they find him and have an encounter and ends up regretting it (because of course ranpo figures it out) but not after giving a very ominous message

they go to the summer camp, ranpo as an honorary member, and trusting in his teammates, gets kidnapped instead in place of bakugo.

afo is interested in the self-proclaimed greatest detective, the youngest one in fact. ranpo feels threatened. he wants him. needs those strategic smarts, but knows that Ranpo would never. Instead, he would make it so Ranpo could never help the other side. He shatters him. for once, his intuition fails him. his teammates are too late.

He was scared. (this is what he gets for being reckless all the time. almost suicidal with how much trust he puts in his colleagues to make it in time.)

think of yosano after she exploded the thing and was all depressed and unreacting.

before this, he meets shinsou at aizawa's place. he bluntly questions why shinsou hasnt used his mindreading. shinsou: what?? aizawa: what have i told you about people not understanding some things? stop being so blunt. ranpo: blink blink oh. Hey Shinsou, did you know that logically you should be able to mind read someone while you're brainwashing them- well actually, its more like you're putting them to sleep, but in a state of sleepwalking, y'know? so their mind is still kinda active and registering things that they're seeing in dreams, and you can interact with them that way and their mind would be much easier to see and read because you're kind of.. in their brain? shinsou: … I CAN DO WHAT NOW? aizawa: ..Ranpo.

shinsou reaches out to ranpo. his eyes stay in their shattered shape but he can see after hes free.

ranpo learns to be less hesitant, but is still paranoid.

[aranarumei]

finished reading thru summer as well so heres some notes:

mm, it was inefficient, but i think choosing to do this by reading through the story instead of checking the wiki was worth it! even though i'm only not looking at the wiki because i'm spoiler avoidant, haha.

still, there's some interesting stuff. i'm keeping a page for extra notes that ended up just becoming a half-liveblog document... so yeah, i've got Tenma Thoughts.

first off, after his outburst in ch 15 when he yells at everyone and calls kazunari shallow (ouch. thats gonna have long-lasting consequences), in ch 16 he refers to everyone by their last names while discussing their pros and cons. at their closing night performance in ch 35, however, he calls everyone by their first names and confesses he thinks of them as friends. so its very cool to see that progression. muku and yuki also call each other sakisaka and rurikawa-kun before transitioning to a first name basis, and i'm glad i got to note that down. yknow in case i ever need to write pre-joining natsugumi fic that includes them... it was also helpful to see how exactly yuki uses his nicknames and with what frequency.

i also, like, hate tenma's parents... so much. like he has this outburst when they tell him to quit the play that goes something like "they've spent so much time neglecting me and NOW they decided to meddle!" (very masumi in act 2. they should bond.) but it startled me so much because when tenma gets literally punched by his dad after he's like... way calmer abt the whole situation, and he's very like. blase abt getting hit? to the point that he even explains to izumi like oh no it wasnt even going behind their backs that made my parents mad it was the movie offer rejection. which is So... anyways in this situation here tenma's gotten permission to stay in the play. so he's secure in that. before, i think he was like, kind of panicked about having this chance taken away from him, which is why he allows himself to get so resentful and like bitter in the first place. (seriously, the fact that his parents are just fully un-contactable when they're overseas, but when tenma goes to paris for a WEEK he calls yuki during a break on set...?)

i've got quite a few holes in the chart (what does masumi call ANYONE whos not sakuya, for instance) but i'll dig thru the other chats after to fill those, i assume.

izumi's got some fun stuff, too, like muku calls her kantoku-san while kazunari calls her kantoku-chan, which rly reflects on both of their personalities... i dont catch every single way each person calls her, so... that'll mb require a second read or something, we'll see. or i could look into some of the mini chats which might be easier to find the answer from.

*flexes fingers* time to put in an inefficient amount of effort and make an a3 name chart!

[yeetbean]

i am going to design a character based plot that is so fulfilling
