#the way shes just desperate for a Friend

I was crying from pain at the emergency room and the nurses were bitching about me not dying so they couldn’t help right away even if I kept passing out and had been there for a long time, this sweet old Russian lady who was also admitted since earlier stood up and walked next to me and kept comforting me and asking how I was holding up, she kept checking in on me and being so sweet and going around asking if everyone was doing ok or just distracting family members of patients with nice conversations. She called out the doctors and nurses for not caring, she sat next to me and kept making sure I was ok and then gave me her phone number when she got discharged so I’d follow up with her. Honestly my day coulda been hell today but this one lady made it so bearable it’s not going to be remembered as a bad horrible traumatizing time, I got to meet an actual angel and I’m so happy about it.

I love three houses discourse because I'm pretty sure everyone just picks their route based on which house leader they're the most gay for and then tries to defend their pick by pointing out the other sides's war crimes via twitter memes. Reader, all four of them do substantial quantities of war crimes. So many. We're just here because the woman with Issues and a big fuck-off axe said so, and then we gotta justify everything she did in the name of dismantling the class system. I mean, I'm here for that, but you could also try justifying Charm Man uses poison and perfidy to try to stop racism, A Sad Little Meow Meow gives no quarter instead of doing therapy, or the Thicc Pope tries to bring back her mom via human experimentation, depending on your tastes

I think I'm in the "conscious incompetence" stage of being a social animal in the real world and it sucks so majorly. bro what do you do after you realize you're bad at socializing and then in-person interaction gets harder because you know you're failing at it now.

Politics vent, though not about specific politicians:

It is wild to have conversations about White Poverty in the US and the desperate straits in which conservative white bigots allegedly live with left-wing white people who have never ever been poor. It seems like they just can't process that creative/literary people like J and I could conceivably have grown up in actual for real poverty and ... idk, it feels very patronizing (and frustrating) at times.

We all know Timmy is Wanda’s mama’s boy but we need to keep in mind he’s still Cosmo’s kid too and that Cosmo would love him just as vehemently as Wanda

madge has never baked anything before.

she wouldn't know anyhow to truly criticise peeta over this method or to appraise it, though she thinks she ought to have some sort of opinion anyway. madge doesn't, ( it's always safer that way ) though she allows her eyes to flicker from the baker's son once more to the ingredients laid out — not quite as questionably as she ought to, and nor is it as judgmentally as she perhaps needed to be. their long-time staff, vienna, who's usually in charge of the kitchen, looks uncertain as she wipes the silver in the corner, though she keeps herself mum. observing.

❛⠀strawberry frosting sounds nice, ❜ again, there's that feeling — a dangerous thrill — that brims, that threatens to grow, at the bottom of her stomach. madge fantasises about a life where she could have this everyday. somebody to talk to. something to do that isn't filled with her haunting over her father's piano, or watching the life of those around her moving while she feels achingly, desperately, and deservingly still. a mayor's daughter with everything at her fingertips, what would she know of hard work ?

she doesn't, and it's half-maddening to think peeta would give this to her so freely.

❛⠀will you teach me ? ❜

@forgaeven ; continued from this ask.

         PEETA  LIKED  HANGING  OUT  WITH  MADGE  UNDERSEE  and  it  was  pretty  easy  to  get  permission  from  his  mother  to  see  her.  Her  family  enjoyed  the  pasties  from  the  bakery  and  they  were  one  of  the  few  families  in  town  who  could  afford  his  cakes.  His  mother  smiled  every  time  he  mentioned  meeting  up  with  her,  although  he  supposed  that  she  thought  a  romance  might  bloom  between  the  two.  Peeta  should  correct  his  mother's  assumption,  but  he  doesn’t.  The  boy  merely  smiles  and  attempts  to  configure  a  faint  blush  across  his  cheeks.  If  she  knew  who  he  really  had  his  eye  on,  he'd  be  in  trouble.

         ❝ Yes, ❞  Peeta  nodded,  ❝ The  steam  will  cook  the  cake  and  then  we  can  top  it  off  with  some  strawberry  frosting. ❞  The  sugar  and  flour  had  been  easy  enough  to  get.  For  the  last  few  years  Peeta  has  been  skimming  some  of  the  dry  ingredients  and  hiding  them  before  his  mother  did  inventory.  He'd  save  up  enough  to  try  out  a  new  recipe  and  if  it  turned  out  well,  he'd  suggest  to  his  mother  that  they  try  it  and  act  supposed  when  the  new  item  was  hit.  The  egg  had  been  harder  to  get,  but  as  soon  as  he  mentioned  that  it  was  a  cake  for  the  Underseas,  his  mother  handed  over  the  egg  without  question.  Madge  proved  a  peaceful  place  to  cook  and  the  berries.

         ❝ It  will  work, ❞  he  smiled  and  popped  one  of  the  berries  into  his  mouth,  ❝ I  promise. ❞  He  picked  up  another  one  and  held  it  out  for  Madge  to  take.

6/11 • Day 3 • Celebration

I Think We Might Be Friends -- Level 40 Convo, featuring my Summoner, Moe! (Uses it/it's pronouns!)

Aka what happens when a mirror reflects a mirror. But like with one of those funhouse mirrors that distort your image. Wouldn't that be fucked up or what

Also also just. Sharena bestie you have me BEWILDERED. I remember so distinctly when I got her 40 convo, waayy back before I had a good read on her character... it struck me, stuck with me for years. I think I finally understand, now, though.

Some close ups of my fave shots!

Also! Coloring this was a last-minute impulse decision, which thankfully paid off! I was sooooo scared though ESP of not making time after. ALL OF THIS TIME. So I took pics beforehand too!

With... kind of inconsistent lighting LMFAO 🧍 I feel like this version has a nice effect too, but! It was important to me to show Moe in full-color, here. Similar, but in opposite directions...

[brofightiscancelled]

ok kind of an insane ask so feel free to ignore but would you be able to translate "友達バリア" by deco*27? i can't find any translations online and i wanna see if i'm right about the song kind of fitting the matsus... it's also a banger imo

- vocamatsu anon

omg.... tbh i have a feeling deco will make a video for this one which means we'll get an official english translation of it, rendering this completely redundant, but i'm really cheesed to have been asked, so i gave it a shot for you anyways <3

Friend-zoned, love fire, sparks flying HIBANA We're ready, set to lock horns, love's ultimate showdown I'm outmatched- but it's not over yet! I won't let this end! With a dazzling, never-give-up attitude, I'll break through your defenses!

The despair of never getting anything more of this Your behavior, nor what's going on in your head- I can't read it at all! I can't help but envy the kindness you radiate Omnidirectional compatibility- it's just not for me

Carefully-picked down-played words The outcome: A bloody heart True feelings double-crossed by embarrassment; how frustrating, I'm changing sides But that won't fill up my heart What I want is nothing more than to be by your side If you've got something to say, then say it- 'til I defeat you, that is! 3, 2, 1!

Friend-zoned, love fire, sparks flying HIBANA We're ready, set to lock horns, love's ultimate showdown I'm outmatched- but it's not over yet! I won't let this end! With a dazzling, never-give-up attitude, I'll break through your defenses!

I want you to like me! I want you to like me! Friend-zoned, love fire, hey, say "I give up"! With a dazzling, never-give-up attitude, I'll break through your defenses!

Fun things, good feelings- without you, they have no taste at all Sadness, jealousy- if they're cuz of you, then I don't mind them Let's throw down, bro! Better to regret doing it, than not doing it at all! A feeling like I won't need any special moves, YEAH I'm sure everything will be OKAY With an endless supply of love, you're undefeated, AYE Play dead, BYE BYE I'll be the one to throw the first punch

Friend-zoned, love fire, sparks flying HIBANA We're ready, set to lock horns, love's ultimate showdown The lonely and timid me is already no more! With a dazzling, blazing flair, I'll burn through your defenses!

Do you like me yet? Do you like me yet? Friend-zoned, love fire, now, let's immerse ourselves in love! With a dazzling, blazing flair, a never-ending HAO sweetener battle!

Do you like me yet? Do you like me yet? Friend-zoned, love fire, now, let's immerse ourselves in love! With a dazzling, blazing flair, a never-ending HAO sweetener battle!

------

my notes:

my overall interpretation of this song is "I'm trying to break through the friend zone (friendship barrier) so that you like me instead of thinking of me as a friend", so any vagueness in translation went in that direction

The use of "lock horns" in the official translation snippet + the HAO motifs give me the mental image of like, a hand-to-hand kung fu battle, so I leaned towards that imagery whenever there was vagueness (as opposed to like, a military campaign, for example)

deco's official english translations tend to be very liberal, so i tried to keep my translation a little more literal

i am going to wind up on team #justiceforarmand but it's going to be so situational. justice for armand specifically during the period of time louis is all "oooh who needs labels." a very different kind of justice for armand on matters pertaining to claudia.

[wildstar25]

What physical part(s) of Arsay does her partners find the most attractive! Is it the same for all partners or does it differ between them?

(also optional bonus ask of what part(s) of/about Arsay generally do they love the most, physical or not!)

Meanwhile, if you were to ask the same of Arsay:
