[QUESTION: I'm wondering, when watching Doctor Who, could the Doctor could be diagnosed with ADHD?]

MATT SMITH: Probably, yeah. I mean, I probably can. Yeah, I mean I think the Doctor could be diagnosed with a lot of things. He’s a pretty strange, mad creature. He’s got a lot of alien afflictions, I’m sure. But yeah, why not! Why not.

Has this been done yet?

Been watching a playthrough of the recently-released Princess Peach: Showtime! It's very cute and fun; I must say I was pleasantly surprised by how it ended up being structured. ^^

The other day I heard that some people were mocking the game, calling it too easy and silly and childish, and most notably, comparing it to the Kirby series. Well, as a Kirby fan, I take that as a compliment! :D The similarities ARE noticeable, and if HAL were to try making a Kirby game that leaned into PPS's particular strengths-- theatrics, characterization, episodic storytelling, and a heavy emphasis on REALLY COOL VISUALS-- I would be overjoyed. ^^

Since Kirb is kind of a simple character with a limited (and already well-established) range of expression, I doubt they'd try it with him, but I think any one of the franchise's fan-favorite side characters would fit right into the formula. MK, DDD, Magolor, even Bandana Dee could work. I'd really love to see them in a game like that...now I have something else to wish for and dream about, I guess~

are the glitchy gang considered honorary agents by cuttlefush?

Bob, Meggy and Mario are considered honorary/part-time agents (like how I picture they justified Deep Cut's "Marie's Henchmen, apparently" role), a few of them are in non-agent support positions like Sheldon and Off the Hook, most of them are considered either civilian consultants or allied vigilantes, and the Guards (plus whichever branch of the military they've found themselves in charge of for some reason), MKPD and Koopa Troop are considered separate allied organizations (I included them because I still consider Bowser, X and FM to at least be part of the extended Glitchy Gang even if they're not part of the core SMG4 Crew)

It would be so very satisfying if after seeing Yun Weishan's neck get grabbed all these times, she finally does some sort of countermove to get out of it. It would make my day if she does this next ep (15), but maybe it's too soon in the narrative.

Switching from a high-stress job into a chilled out one is a good idea...

...but maybe not for everyone.

I don't think it was one for me.

Was I tired while working my old job? Yes. Was it difficult? Also yes. Did I suffer? A bit, yeah. But did I still enjoy it? Also yes.

And now? Now I'm just BORED all day. I feel like I don't use my brain at all. I just stand around, clean up, change nappys and make sure that kids don't kill each other.

I love my colleagues and I like the kids, but damn it's boring. I'm wilting as we speak.

Needless to say, I don't think this job really is for me and I think I'll need to keep looking for something else - sigh.

Humans Are Extinct (Yandere!TWST x Fem!Reader) Monster AU pt 39

(Crowley has been Headmage of Night Raven College for a very long time spanning over several centuries. As Headmage, he has made NRC his home and he would die before he lets anyone remove him from his home. He has wanted chicks of his own for a while and has yet to ever have them given how busy he is, hence why he is so obsessed with the Human being his Little Chick. Crowley wants the Human to be his young and he is less than pleased any time the Human shows affection to those other than him.)

~~~~~~~~

As the evening was winding down, you noticed the warm smell of food. Thankfully the testing didn't last for long but it did leave you with a particular hunger and exhaustion. Naturally, that meant Malleus was hovering around you even as you tried to play a videogame with Ace and Deuce.

Both Goats were thrilled you were back and were happy to have the official title as your guards. They were already the envy of the other first years as your friends, but being your guards meant even upperclassmen treated them better. The two had been eager to be your guards and spend time with you, but had few chances outside of class.

Something about getting to spend their days and nights with you made them feel all the more connected to you. Doing homework with you, cracking jokes, and the delicious scent that continually drew them back to the kitchen. Even if it meant they had to be around the intimidating Dragon, it was worth it to be able to spend time with you.

"Hey, (Y/n), why don't we all sleep down here for the evening? We could invite Jack, and even that one Pomefiore kid Epel! He's a first year and is chosen for whenever Pomefiore guards you. It would be like one big study session!"

Deuce was smiling as he tracked the screen, the racing game the three of your were playing was entertaining enough to keep his attention. Ace- who had been actually good at the game from the start- was easily winning against you and Deuce. Even as he focused, he gave you that familiar grin as he once again won the match.

"It would give me more of you losers to win against!"

"... Losers, huh..? How about playing against a real pro?"

"Wha-?!"

Ace leaped from the couch as Idia seemed to materialize behind him, his blue hair sparking with a gentle red. There seemed to be a kind of anger in Idia's eyes and you were quick to offer him your controller as he took a seat between you and Ace. Deuce was quick to move out of the way as it seemed the Housewarden of Ignihyde was on a war path.

"Wait- I was just playing-!"

"Isn't that what we're doing right now? Just playing."

Idia's tone seemed flatter than usual and you were surprised to watch him lock in focus wise. Ace didn't stand a chance and Idia wasn't even gloating despite soundly beating the first-year.

"Sheesh, man! You didn't have to beat me that hard!"

"What? No 'good game'? No 'I was wrong'? Where'd all that bravado go now that you're playing against someone who actually knows what they're doing?"

A giggle from nearby drew your attention and you saw Ortho hovering there, Papa Hades smirking behind the younger Shinigami. They both seemed extremely amused by Idia's behavior and you couldn't help but feel humored as well. As shy and timid as Idia was, he knew videogames and he was not going to let Ace bully you and Deuce even on a simple racing game.

Idia had been the one to gently guide you through learning a bunch of new games with him when he guarded you last, and he had been very encouraging. Always encouraging you to keep trying and not blaming you for being new at the game. Now he was encountering someone who was dogging on you for being new at the game and not being very good at it. He had to fight for your honor.

"Idi-nii is always big into teaching humility to anyone trying to tease new gamers! And because it's you, (Y/n), he's not going to let teasing like that slide!"

Papa Hades chuckled softly and turned from ortho to you, an amused look on his face.

"Dinner is ready, everyone. Your Gnoll friend Ruggie has also arrived. I understand he gets double portions?"

"Yeah," you laughed gently, "he does. He had me promise him since I have been away."

"Understood."

Malleus, who had been a silent shadow around you, moved with your group into the kitchen where the others were waiting. You noticed that none of them had taken the chair-highchair combo that you typically shared with Grim. A kind of worry sparked in your brain when you noticed the kit was not present and Papa Hades noticed your concern.

"Worry not, Young Grim will return with Young Anastasi once he has been cleared to be alert enough to eat."

"So they decided on a pair?"

"Yes, I'm told the surgery went well. Young Grim will be flying again in no time, but he will likely want affection and a gentle hand, he will be tender after the attachment."

As if summoned by the elder Shinigami, Anastasi entered the room with Grim in her arms. His wings were wrapped so they remained closed, likely to give the webbing time to heal properly without stretching them too much. The kit seemed groggy but immediately held out his paws to you the moment he saw you. His impatient whining and mewling pulled at your heart strings as you quickly took the kit from the Shinigami's arms.

"Mama..!"

"I'm here, sweet boy. It's okay, I'm here."

You felt a certain level of anger that they didn't even ask your permission to go ahead with the surgery, nor did they let you be around for when he woke up. Despite your anger, logic told you that they likely moved ahead with the surgery to give him enough time with their supervision while his wings healed. Still, you had wanted to be there for the kit when he woke up, as he was likely scared, confused, and hurt.

"My wings hurt, Mama."

You looked up at Anasatsi with a frown, trying to keep your motherly anger at bay. Despite how you wanted to insist that she give him more pain medication, you didn't know what he already had in his system.

"When does he get another dose of pain management?"

"He can have more now with his food."

"Good."

You brought Grim to your seat and carefully sat down with him, doing what you could to avoid bumping his wings. Despite the highchair part being available, you felt like Grim needed more than a bit of time snuggling instead. He happily clung to your side and nuzzled into you, somewhat sniffing at the food in front of you.

"Grim, you need to take these."

"I don't like them."

"They make your wings stop hurting. That way you can rest easy."

"..."

"Will you take them if I wrap them up in some meat?"

The kit hesitantly took the meat and pills from you, quickly gulping the combination down so he wouldn't taste the medication. Even as the kit frowned in response, he still let you feed him and clung to your side affectionately. Malleus was about to sit next to you when someone else sat in the seat.

Sitting next to you was the Headmage of Night Raven College, Crowley. He stared at Malleus who seemed to consider violence before he begrudgingly sat down on the Crow's other side. Despite your frustration with the Headmage, he had become much more understanding and willing to let you speak for yourself.

Regardless, you focused more on Grim and feeding him, noticing how Crowley was also keen to give the kit food whenever you took a bite for yourself. It did make your task somewhat easier, though you knew Malleus was silently fuming and was likely to cuddle you while you rested in the nest later that evening.

~~~~~~~~

Winding down for the evening, you sat holding Grim who was trying to doze on your lap. Having finished the homework you had been assigned, you figured you could take some time in the nest to comfort the little kit. He understood he was hurting to help his wings heal but that didn't mean that he had zero need for some gentle affection.

While you pet his forehead, a figure settled behind you. Dark wings stretching forward to rest around your body as Malleus rest his chin on your shoulder. The Dragon smiled affectionately at Grim who tried to return the smile only to wince when he moved one of his wings.

"Hurts..."

This seemed to upset Malleus who reached out a hand, green magic swirling around it and into the kit. Whatever kind of magic it was, it seemed to work wonders on Grim as he relaxed into your arms again, that look of pain disappearing from his little face. Malleus was at least trying to help Grim through the pain however he could.

"Thanks, Papa Tsuno..."

The kit purred gently and closed his eyes, unaware of the impact of his words on the Dragon that held the both of you. Malleus was thrilled to hear the kit call him Papa, likely a carry over behavior from calling Lord Hades 'Papa Hades' instead, but no less endearing to the Dragon. He had once disliked how much of your attention the Hellcat took, but he had grown attached to the little creature you loved so deeply.

How could he dislike such a sweet creature that looked to him for affection and that had so easily claimed your loyalty? As far as Malleus was aware, so long as Grim liked him, you would do the same. That was all he could ask for.

"(Y/n), Silver tells me Lilia fed from you again?"

"Yeah, he was starving and fell into my arms out in the hall. He couldn't even lift his head."

"To think Silver would allow Lilia to get to that state..."

"I don't think it was Silver's choice. I think it was Lilia refusing to drink from Silver or Sebek."

Malleus frowned at this, vaguely wondering what game the old Fae was playing by starving himself. He had never had issue with accepting blood from the two retainers in the past, he should still have no issue with it now. The Dragon made a mental note to speak with Lilia when he next had the chance about the behavior he was exhibiting.

Where he was willing to share his greatest treasure with his most trusted ally, the Bat's behavior was concerning.

"In any case, we should rest. You have had a fairly draining evening of testing and theories. Better you relax and burn off the blot you have absorbed."

"What about Sebek, Silver, and Lilia?"

"They will join us when they are ready to rest. For now, you should get some sleep."

You allowed the Dragon to settle in next to you, already in your sleep clothes for the evening. Grim had quickly fallen into slumber thanks to Malleus soothing the ache he felt and you were quick to join him. Even as Malleus sat awake above you, slowly continuing that gradual channeling of his Mana into you, he considered his options.

On one hand, he understood why Lilia would hold out for a taste of your blood again. On the other, he worried what game the elder Fae was playing at by starving himself. Regardless of which it was, the Dragon knew he would have to gently chide the Fae and stop him from harming himself in his attempts to get closer to you.

~~~~~~~~

You awoke sometime late at night to a loud and desperate banging sound echoing throughout the room. The room was shrouded in a veil of darkness only broken up by the dim light of the moon. It seemed darker than you expected and you faintly thought it was the Human spirits before you realized how loud the sound actually was.

Your five nestmates- Malleus, Silver, Sebek, Lilia, and Grim- were also roused by the sudden and intense sound. Despite how you wanted to get up and see what was going on, Silver and Sebek both put out their arms to stop you. Malleus, who had been laying behind you with his wing over your body, snarled a deep percussive sound towards the window where the banging was originating.

On the other side of the window, sobbing his heart out and obviously dismayed, was Rook.

"-laisse-moi entrer! Please Mademoiselle Trickster!"

Lilia was frowning deeply, glancing to you hesitantly. You wanted to see what had Rook so upset. He was typically the calmest and most put together of the monsters and he was clearly quite loyal to you as he had pledged himself as a knight in your honor.

"Let me go to him."

Malleus seemed distressed and angered, but Lilia acted instead. The old Bat Fae hopped out of the nest and over to the window to let the distraught Drider in. It was vaguely disturbing how well the large Drider fit through the smaller window, his many legs folding to fit and force his form through. You managed to slide away from Malleus who hissed loudly as the two retainers let you through, still flanking your approach to the weeping Drider.

"Please-! I cannot- Non, I cannot do it-!"

"Rook," you cupped his cheek, his skin slick with tears in your palm, "take a breath. Tell me what's wrong."

"I'm sorry-! I'm sorry! I'm-!"

You pulled the Drider into your arms, holding his head with your hand. He accepted the physical affection quickly as he sobbed into your shoulder. It was unsettling to see the typically calm and cool hunter break down with such heavy sobs and pleads. What was more unsettling was the fact he was apologizing to you repeatedly, making you wonder just what it was he was apologizing for.

"Rook, what happened?"

"It's Roi du Poison! My Queen has lost his mind. Ever since Heartslabyul was named your guards he has been in a poisonous mood! He is convinced Overblotting will turn your gaze. He has asked me to gather ingredients for a wretched potion, one that will put both his life and your life at risk. I can't let that happen! I can't let him do that to either of you..!"

Shock ran through you as you listened to his confession, worried not only for him but now for Vil. To you, the Harpy always seemed so put together and composed. He seemed so calm compared to the others and keen to make sure you are comfortable and confident in the clothing he crafts for you.

"Vil is planning to Overblot?"

"Oui! Mais non, I cannot let him hurt himself or you! I simply refuse. You both mean more than the world to me, I cannot sit idly by and watch such a beauty destroy himself! I have failed as your knight for ever even allowing such a plan to be concocted! Forgive me for my betrayal, Mademoiselle Trickster."

"Where is he now?"

"He is brewing his toxin in Roi du Selkie's classroom. He sent me to retrieve the plants for his concoction but I cannot allow him to go through with it. Please... Help this me save Vil!"
