If I were to (hypothetically) lead an entire swarm of chipbuses (a grove of chipbuses if you will) how much property damage could I cause in one night
depends on how much property damage you think you could cause if you rammed a squadron of 18-wheelers into random people's houses

FUCK YES!! sorry but I absolutely called it! Lucifer is a silly guy!
Excessive ramble/theory tid bits ahead!~
How can you look at him and think he won't be a silly little guy? People saying he'd be a big intimidating scary king of hell? No way dude just look at him.
And like the way he looks so upset in Ep1 when he lost his ability to create. That's not the face of a guy seeking revenge and filled with anger, that dude is just plain ol' depressed. The way he slowly just walks off screen...
Lilith on the other hand? She is the definition of girlboss.
She's out here inspiring all the demons. Look at that power. She's in control. She's in charge.
While Lucifer's in his depressive state she's out here trying to lead all of hell. She's vengeful, (ik reds are quite a common colour in Hazbin Hotel) but the way it emanates in a glow behind her combined with her pose. It's just shows so much power and malice. You cannot convince me otherwise that she hasn't been pulling the strings since day 1.
I'd even go as far as to say she was the one who had the idea to tell Lucifer to give Eve the apple. Just look at her stance as she stands back to see Lucifer going over to Eve, overlooking the plan. She knows what's up.
(Also just a note but Eve looks so sad here. Girlie is trapped with Adam like she's in her own personal type of Hell. Btw I'd like to throw a theory out there that Eve and Lilith are sisters)
Ngl I do think Lucifer and Lilith split because of this whole power dynamic. Like Lucifer just couldn't keep up with Lilith's ideas or didn't believe in them. Like, Lucifer tells Charlie in Ep5 that Hell and it's people are terrible. This contradicts Lilith's whole thing of wanting to round up all the demons and potentially lead a fight. She THRIVES in Hell. For Lucifer, it's just constant punishment.
I feel like Charlie despite looking up to Lilith, is experiencing quite a bit of miscommunication. They both want to save the demons but in different ways. Charlie's way being through redemption but Lilith's maybe being through a war against Heaven.
Now it's just figuring out where the hell (pun not intended but enjoy) she's been for the past 7 years. (Honestly, I think she's just been off plotting with Eve.)
Another side note, but like the way Alastor just stares at this portrait in the pilot for such a weird prolonged amount of time is not helping my Lilith and Alastor theories calm down. Bro is the radio demon and is broadcasting everything back to Lilith.
He 100% sold his soul to Lilith, tried breaking free, but couldn't.

I introduce Sir Silhouette, otherwise known as Silly. A patient and well meaning man with an appreciation for all things big and small
Currently he heals from an abusive relationship, he seeks out the things he enjoys and keeps his positive attitude for life despite this. He has been through much worse than this in the past however a wound is a wound and things hurt even if they're not as scary as horrifying past things, this is something he is trying to process; he can still be hurt by things that are not as severe as what has hurt him in the past. That being said, the relationship he has left in itself is not to be overlooked either, that is something he is trying to stop doing because it has hurt him a lot.
He is quite therapeutic for me.
He is gentle and will continue to fight against his developing feelings of hostility.
He will not let cruel people make him lose hope and trust in the world.
Wonderful Silly

One Piece Shipping War - Grand Finale!
Propaganda under the cut.
Propaganda for Franky x Robin:
Do I really need to explain?
The old married couple who's healthy, Enies Lobby (and all their appearances) are their propaganda really.
It’s all about the maturity!
Their dynamic is perfect and their pasts are so similar. I love the chemistry between them as well as their introduction that helped build the connection and shared history they already have.
they are THE t4t bi4bi ship | franky telling robin "existing is not a crime" immediately puts this at number one for me | they are opposites (bright and loud + quiet and goth) but also they're both so eccentric and silly <3 | THEY WEAR MATCHING OUTFITS
Mom and dad Straw Hat
They are STILL the Mom and the Dad of the Straw Hats, this is the one thing I don't care what Oda says <3 Also their interactions in Enies Lobby and Thriller Bark are amazing.
In my eyes, they are married. Some of my favorite character interactions in the manga/anime and in official art.
Oda had Franky call Robin his wife at least once
Your honor they’re married
I'M GOING TO PUT LINKS IN MY EXAMPLES (Mod note: I linked to the whole post, the propaganda was going to get too long otherwise. But I will copy this line:...) They immediatly clicked in Enies Lobby, Franky saved Robin with both words and actions ("Your existence is not a sin!"), and then she grabbed his balls.
The duality of two kids who were just trying to chase their dream and having circumstances outside their control (the government) take everything they love away from them, but one choosing solitude and the other adopting every other person in a bad circumstance??? I love them. Plus they literally had couple moments from the first interaction.
The ultimate t4t couple idk what else you need theyre iconic
A wholesome ship of a woman who feels the need to be constantly on edge trying to relax and a man who is a 110% himself from the moment we see him. the joy of frobin is the causal domesticity, in many color spreads and especially post timeskip we can see them casually enjoying the others company.
Remember when Franky was in Chopper's body in Punk Hazard and every time he spoke Robin was like "Franky. Stop talking. Do not talk while you're in Chopper's body."
idk like. he's obsessed with her. she's his weird Goth gf and he's her himbo. they have matching outfits. I love them.
Look. It's Franky and Robin. Literally the only two characters that make sense to ship on the Sunny. Their arcs are inextricably intertwined (water7/enies lobby). Also LOOK AT THEM interacting, both during their arcs, but also thriller bark, or post time skip. I love them. Also robin crushed frankys balls.
funny big robot man & analytical smart research lady power couple... silly x smart... himbo x researcher... augh... so good
They are the ship for taxpaying adults your honor I LOVE them they’re literally freak4freak and they share such a fucking powerful arc together (Water 7).
that moment she let him sleep on her lap in punk hazard was sooo cute <3 -- The matching thigh highs and bottoms in film z can NOT be understated. -- Strawhat mom and dad -- Let's not forget the way robin convinced franky to join ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) -- she also indirectly called his balls "treasure" so,,, -- the way their stories are so closely intertwined...they were both keys to destroy the world...the way they instantly connected over that...the soulmate-ism of it all...
they . them. girlboss and malewife. that's it.
She grabbed his balls. He totally liked it.
He's so silly and she loves it. She's so scary and he loves it. She grabbed his balls in public.
They will be endgame trust me. Franky doesn't treat any other girl like he treats Robin. There dynamic in Water 7 and Thriller Bark was and always will be one of the best in all of OP.
Propaganda for Nami x Vivi:
Yes, Nami has a new girlfriend on every island, but her heart belongs to Vivi. Vivi in turn refuses to marry, because her heart belongs with a pirate ❤
THEY’RE LESBIANS! IN LOVE! another point: my friends who are watching OP for the first time came to me and asked “so Nami and Vivi… they’re gay right?” So it’s pretty apparent to even newcomers
I just think they’re neat! And in love. Nami gave up money for Vivi that’s True Love
Anyone who saw them can just tell they’re gay. Like Nami gave up money for her
They're one of the rare lesbian ships in op, they care for each other so much !!
Lesbians
Lesbians
They were so gay that Luffy offered to share food to cheer Nami up when they were separated.
i dare you to read Baroque Works through Alabasta without shipping them. the way Vivi and Nami are so affectionate with each other, and Vivi putting saving her nation on hold to get Nami healthy again ???
Lesbians
Let’s go lesbians!!!!! Ok but actually, I think Nami saw a lot of herself in Vivi (ha) especially when Igaram “died” and then throughout their journey together Nami really encouraged her to open up to the crew. Nami showed Vivi it was ok to ask for help just like Luffy showed her.
Vivi was Nami's gay awakening and you cant change my mind. Nami was in love with Vivi and Vivi def had some kind of feeling for Nami. They were so close and they were more then just 'gal pals'
Lesbian Pirate Supremacy! they clearly care a lot about each other and considering when nami meets vivi she is probably one of the first close female friends she gets to have.

Place Desmoules: Enjoy French city living!
Hi guys!
So, today, only one lot... But it's a beast of a lot!
Wecome to Place Desmoules, one of the main urban (and let's face it, exceedingly French) hub of Vogoelian activities that don't involve fish.
Well, mostly. I've had sea food adventures before, so I wouldn't bet too much on the doctor and the pharmacy about that. But otherwise? all clear.
So, as you can see, we have the Petit Corse restaurant RH on one side. It goes well with the town, and let's face it, I'm not a fan of herding cats, so the TS3 restaurants efforts never filled me with joy.
But there is plenty more action!
So, pharmacy, with shop AND lab at the back.
Next door:
It's a big shop, empty at the moment because I intend to do a kind of mini departement store in there, but there is already enough CC in there.
So I left it empty, and then we can all run amok with our stuff as we like (Hello, Pat!)
Then we get to the back, Place Desmoules, with a nice café and a beauty salon, before going to your medical appointement (and of which I forgot to take a photo, crappydoo)
Well, it's up there on the first floor.
Anyway, once you've done all that hard work, you might notice a little place:
What is this mysterious (and slightly scary) place?
Welcome to La Trompette Bouchée, the local jazz club, with local artists and also local and maybe fishy snacks.
Very atmospheric.
With quite a big scene, so if there is a passing acrobat or magician...
And while we're doing the bird view of things:
As you may have noticed, there are more Frenchy lots awaiting, some residential with PNG lodgins and attachet business... but also WIP at the moment.
Now, most of the chucktown of CC in there is @aroundthesims... I've haven't down loaded everything, but close.
Oh, and while I'm at it. Place Desmoules?
Well, first, I have a thing for silly French puns, so you have to suffer. Sorry not sorry.
Second, story time:
I told you, Vogoel les Mouettes had a small Pirate problem, some time ago...around 260 of those, which lands us in 1764.
King Louis XV "le bien aimé" who at the time was getting on years, and a nation who had an incredible sense of style (my fafourite!), but a lot of money problems.
Just to say that Pirates in the Caraibianswe can deal (by ignoring it, mostly), but right next door? soething had to be done.
Enter one pink satin frocked Pierre Desmoules, Chevalier du porte Jarretelle, to command an army... well, a flotilla... 3 ships? AND to solve the problem.
When the Pirates stopped laughing he got trounced.
Now, never underestimate the guile of a French aristocrat when his wallet is at risk. Pierre Desmoules brevet de Capitainerie may have been spanking new (and expensive), but he was not an idiot.
So he made a deal with the Pirates.
The Pirates kept pirating, and Pierre not looked the other way, but transported the goods to be sold on the mainland (for a small cut of profit, of course)... since the goods suddenly became legal, they fetched a far better price than stolen merchandise, and everybody was happy.
The king had "beaten" the Pirates, said Pirates made tons of cash, and papa Desmoules, a sea trader, had a lot of fine stock to sell.
End of story, but we are likely to meet the Desmoules family again in the future.
In the meantime, have a nice week you guys!

Vampire Eggman seems far more approachable and easy to hang out with than the main Eggman lol. The art you made of Vampire Egg and Game Egg cuddling is really cute btw.
I'm glad my art of him gives the funny cheeky silly vibe I was going for lol. Yeah AU Vampire Egg mostly lives alone besides a few bothersome ghosts and seems scary to prey when they enter and hunts them down for a rare feeding but is otherwise a silly guy who likes to have fun to stop the boredom if living in big empty abandoned places. He could make a fun friend
He likes silly things like playing pranks with his funny fat little round bat form for a spooky fright. He writes amateur poetry and colleges random trinkets. He talks with a funny lisp due to his fangs that immediately take away everything intimidating before knowing him. Unless his prey drive kicks up again, then there's glimpses of the danger with the mischievous glint in his eye
Then he can become nippy and his big sharp fangs are dangerous and his pouncing can become less playful and more instinctive. Though eventually he may start to get the idea to use his ability to make people eventually feel calmer and safer around him once they get to know him to catch them off guard and feed on them if they won't agree to do him favor with it as friend lol
Thank you I'm glad you like it! I love them together so much 💜 Luckily Eggman understands and quite likes when Vampire Egg gets a bit feisty between his cuteness and silliness and has enjoyed letting him bite and drink from him from time to time. And it's worth it for the cuddles and cloak wrapped around him to keep him warm in the cold unheated mansion hehe
Makes me realize it's the only Eggman x Eggman art I've actually finished and posted so I should change that and get more of my ideas in art form!

A Song With Ten Names
Chapter 14: Community Gardens
Chapter 1 ☆ Next chapter
Summary of chapter: Roses are notorious for being difficult to care for when newly planted, needing nearly immaculate attention. One wrong move and it's all over. Takara's thorns are untrimmed, and gardeners' hands may be left bleeding. Will more wary fingers make for better blossoms, or will it simply quicken her (or their) demise?
Author's Note: The song for this chapter is Community Gardens by the scary jokes and Louie Zong. A short and sweet chapter to lead into more ideas I have for the zombie combo and the elemental pair (Itachi and Kisame, fire and water).
Do you remember that line in the Mitski song Nobody that's like…Venus, the planet of love, was destroyed by global warming because its people wanted too much? I think about that a lot. The otherwise abrupt tonal shift in the song lyrics I chose is how I interpret that bit.
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
Full disclosure, I am a monster
A creature of despair, not that that should be a cause for concern
If there's one thing I've learned in all my years here
It's that despair is less abundant in those who understand
How to plant their hearts in community gardens
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
It's a wonderful summer day. The sky is blue behind the backdrop of tall, tall trees. A bird the same color sits upon a block of wood hung up by rope, unable to make the swing work as intended with its small weight but still enjoying it all the same. The roses of the haunted mansion's garden are in full bloom; no attempt has been made yet to trim down their thorns. A shimmer of green passes between two sets of eyes, a dragonfly unable to make either Akatsuki flinch from their staring contest.
“Itachi,” Hidan coos, drawing out the last syllable like casting fishing wire with bait. Such tone is only on his tongue when he is trying to get something he wants, and the man he speaks to has that clocked. “Is it really that important? Can’t I just go in?”
The raven shakes his head, despite how helpfully Hidan gestures in a shoving motion, demonstrating the direction in which he should move his ass. She’s in a sensitive state, surely, to have not run out to greet them as she attempted before. Takara is to arrive on her own volition, he decided on the spot, rather than the zombies go in for a game of hide and seek. But he had already explained this to Hidan.
At the front door.
And then he tried to get in through the back.
There is no point in repeating himself.
The shirtless man makes a sound halfway between a hum and a growl. The scent of these damn flowers outside is starting to get unbearable, giving him a headache. “What’s the big deal? What, are ya hiding her?”
No budge. This is getting a bit fucking silly. Hidan swallows. Why is he nervous when his lord has done as promised, prevented her death until his reurn? It’s that much like the traveler, he’s had the problem of being excited first and having possibilities of the bad hit later. Such a self-confident man has no use for second guesses, though, and so he is simply left antsy and frustrated with these worthless feelings. One silver brow raises. Whats more, what the hell does the Uchiha think he’s doing?! Blood so easily boiled begins to simmer, and Hidan makes an accusation:
“Is she even here?!”
Itachi’s black eyes shift ever so slightly. “She is.”
“Eh? What are ya loo—” The reaper’s chin goes over his shoulder to follow the Uchiha's gaze only to choke on his own words. She is one of the only people that can make him speechless. However, his first comment is about who is escorting her down the aisle, since he’s what's unexpected:
“Tobi, you little—" he stammers in annoyance, "What the fuck are you doing here?!”
Unlike himself, the swirled man does not answer, and though the reaper groans, it also gives Hidan’s brain time to refocus. His eyes trail from a gloved hand to an ungloved one, trailing up the arm, to the dress strap on her shoulder, to her face. Ah, yes. There she is, frail and eyes red. Radiant, holy, much like when she was ready for his blades. Like a bride is presented to the groom, has been bestowed before him, emerging the veil of leaves in her pure white gown, long-wild roses framing her entrance. Doesn't matter that her hair has been caught and pulled in disaray by brambles, that scuffs of dirt powder her knees. All the same, all the same, Hidan recognizes her. The lamb's bottom lip quivers.
She’s crazy for wanting to see him again, right? All of a sudden the stranger remembers their introduction more sharply: the death, the yelling, the proselytizing to get her to murder in cold blood. Is this a mistake? It's too late to back out now.
She stares at him.
...
...
He stares at her. Why is she looking at him like that? His brow furrows while her expression remains fixed, unblinking eyes still stinging.
...
...
The girl that was named Takara is a fool, cursed with the wisdom of his care behind doors of a blood-drenched temple. He never hurt her, not once, not ever, and he never made her kill again, no matter how much he wanted her to. A beast he may be of many sins, but harming her is not one of them. Taking care of her when she had no one else has staked his claim as war-torn guardian angel. She mutters his name to remember the taste, just in case, to be sure if it remains sweet or bitter on the back of her tongue, and she feels with his two syllables butterflies in her chest. They flutter out her mouth and straight into his heart. Her voice is even prettier than he remembered.
All of her is.
Tobi lets her go so the prophet and disciple may run to each other at once. Despite it being mutual, the cool and savage Hidan must feign surprise as she dares to hug first. Her face goes right in his bare chest; it feels like it always belonged there. The woman admits something unbelievable:
“I missed you.”
She did, huh? No, of course she did. He was her first: her first Akatsuki savior, her first real friend. Hidan has a long several days to think over how to skirt a thin line; he must seem like it doesn’t affect him so much, and yet not be too uninterested. He is not a pathetic man, not one that should buckle down just because he’s getting emotional, but now that the reunion is really happening, it’s so easy to be dragged down to her level. His anchor, she is, pulling him further and further into the depths of humanity. Oh Jashin, why did you task him with such a fragile little thing? You know that’s not what he’s good at! He “tsk”s in her ear, putting one hand on her back.
“Fuckin’ sentimental,” he murmurs, so grateful to have what he curses out loud. His eyes raise, meeting black ones in the corner. “What’re you staring at?” he challenges levelly. Itachi does not answer. Hidan swears in the back of his mouth.
Then he feels a pressure upon his back and sides.
“Tobi, get the fuck off of me RIGHT NOW, you little shit! Can’t you see we’re having a moment, here?!” The actor couldn’t help himself, going in to make it a group hug and diffuse a wee bit of anything too good. The orange mask whines like the baby he is, something about how he missed the priest too, doesn’t that matter?!
Goddammit.
This is going to be a long...however the hell long this is to be together, in this place. Tobi’s just the pissy bonus on a shit cake. Kisame being a self-righteous fuck who thinks he knows better...Itachi being a bossy prick...and even fucking Kakuzu…
He still hasn’t said a word since the meeting to Kakuzu. It may just stay that way.
But...but… His skin dries her tears. The symbol he prays to is now pressed between them, unifying them. She hasn’t let go. Part of him is assuaged that she really did have enough sense to want him back, after all.
It’s not like he doesn’t deserve her want or anything, though, he convinces himself.
Despite his own aching soul, what he will admit to, she will be worth the trouble. Whether it’s just them in the room or everyone alive in the fuckin’ place, it does not matter. She is here. She is here with him. He presses her into him just a bit tighter, tilting his chin down to nest in her hair. It’s still too damn soft.
“...Missed you too,” he mumbles, just for her dumb sake, just glad his prayers to Jashin for her safety were heard.
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
You'll be fine, you honeycomb
Who could ever hurt you? Who could be so cold?
You'll be fine, oh, honey pie
Who could ever hurt you? Who could be so unkind?
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
“Didn’t this place use to be...shittier?”
“Mm?” she turns around with the next step, the arch of the kitchen entrance by her side as they enter what used to simply be an abandoned hideout for the Akatsuki. He almost looks uncomfortable, the way Hidan’s eyes slide over the seamless ceiling, the dripless sink. The host has to mentally walk herself back to the times of prayer and nighttime gigs. “Oh. Yeah, it was. Kisame and Itachi have been helping me fix it up, since we gotta live here.”
“...Were we not livin’ here before?”
Oh. The juggling act begins so soon. The performer glances to the other that took her home, to whom she confessed her troubles to. “Uhh…” Tobi just shrugs. It’s with his whole body, shoulders and arms and hands included, but it’s still just a fucking shrug. No advice he can give for this one.
This is awkward. Shit.
In the woman’s silence, Hidan’s gaze goes over to the one man she named that’s present here. To her, Itachi is as chill as can be. To Hidan…to Hidan...—
She’s not sure, and she doesn’t want an opportunity to learn what negative trait Hidan could have assigned to his neutral expression. An explanation interrupts: “For longer term, I mean.”
...
The shirtless man now shrugs, too.
“Didn’t really need it, but if you want all the bells and whistles and frills, who am I to stop ya?” His shoulders lower, his lips pursing boredly. “Seems like ya to do that. Frilly shit.” But abruptly his eyes light up— and not necessarily in a good way. “Wait, you didn’t touch my room, did you?!”
As soon as she can answer, uh, no, at least she hasn’t, but maybe Kisame— Hidan is off, hopping over the stair rail to go upstairs as quickly and directly as possible. The traveler takes half a step to join him, hand to her chest, but then stops and sighs. There’s another to attend to, that she shouldn’t leave waiting any longer. Silently, her eyes meet black ones. Itachi nods, and it is understood. While one Uchiha will ensure Hidan won’t destroy any remodeling, it’s up to another to escort her to the final man.
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
The culmination of man's mistakes came the day
The sun ran so hot, it turned the desert to glass
If there's something to be learned from all these losers
It's that the price that you pay
For arrogance and a false sense of immunity
Is to face the wrath of a dying star
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
Almost like it’s a gut instinct, the traveler wanders to the front door. The entrance is open, but the two tallest guys she’s met are at the threshold, barring entry and exit alike. Kakuzu is arguing- as reasonably as he can— with Kisame.
“I can...understand your hesitation,” he draws out, deep and careful as such a precarious bargain requires. “But it’s been long enough to wait for her. She’s not coming down.”
Cloakless, muscled arms are folded and their shoulders tense. The shark is trying just as hard to meet in the middle, but an attachment both hold— ironically what this is about— is causing an uncrossible barrier. The treaty is wavering, and it hardly even started. It’s a difficult balance that both Akatsuki have artificial sympathy for another, for her sake, as Kisame needs to temper down after Takara’s explanation, and Kakuzu now has to reprove he is safe enough for her to be around.
Just for her sake, they’re trying. God they’re trying. But it still isn’t good.
“We’ll hang out here, then.” Yeah, Itachi’s idea for her to come at her own pace is mostly because of that other one, but...the one that bruised her may initiate alarm as well, even if she so earnestly pushed it aside. He second guesses himself again, as he did with her upon his bed. Him? Kakuzu really cared about someone? Anyone?!
Sizzling annoyance and anger is under Kakuzu’s skin and stewing in the back of his throat, and the fact it is still there instead of expressed outward in his fists is proof. Yes, he does care. So he must have patience. Patience.
And finally, patience is rewarded.
Kakuzu freezes as soon as he sees her, tilting her head to appear from behind Kisame’s large, protective figure. She smiles. So softly, she smiles. The bounty hunter must keep his gaze unmoved, lest he emote in such a way it could alarm the delicate creature. To Kisame he succeeds, but her this is the kindest he’s ever looked back, and so he fails the task utterly.
And what does he feel, those eyes widening? Is he afraid, she wonders? Afraid again like as he clenched her shoulder?
And of her to him...does she hate him? Is that pain on her face, he asks? She looks like she’s been crying. Is that why she hesitated to come down? For a calculated man, his thoughts rush so much faster than hers. Are those tears for him? Does she fear him after what he did? He wouldn’t blame her. Not at all.
Kisame and Tobi wait, one with worry staring down to where she hides behind his arm, and the other with distant interest like that of a scientist. What will they do?
But she does not fear him. Not even after how it was supposed to end, in tragedy. Kakuzu gave her a name, and though she does not know its meaning, it is still a treasure grander than any wealth that glitters like gold. His hopes for her from their beginning shine through. She will succeed, always succeed and never be without, not again in the state she was found. But he never wished for her success to be wrapping him around her finger, for her to never be without the steel hunter’s best intentions...yet here they are.
"Hi," she says.
God damn you, girl, for falling into his lap not once but twice to look up at him with those starry eyes.
Kakuzu dares not move even as she does, as the queen steps around her blue shield and approaches. Her regality astounds him, something he never noticed until it was gone. The smoothness of every motion, from the way she hoods her eyes to the way her chin keeps so level even as she walks; it is all so precise, so accidentally commanding with how simultaneously demure and unconfident it seems. It impresses him. Perhaps, unconsciously after all those nights of observing her talents, it always has.
The guard, in turn, watches with caution as his ward raises her arms around the dragon that once captured her like she was a hoard of riches, holds him with all she has in her poor forgiving soul with a love better reserved for saints than sinners as he.
Just as Hidan did a month ago, Kakuzu’s hand raises, bends fingers that don’t know what to do. She trusts him. Why does she trust him?
Palm goes flat.
It lands on top of her head as lightly as humanly possible, perhaps even lighter.
The fool has forgiven him, the treasurer must accept. How terrible. How terrible for them both. It’s a shame Kakuzu has nothing to pray to, as that would mean he could be absolved of his harm. But at least she has been kept alive. At least, at least. No matter how conflicted he is— why should he care? He meant to leave her be in the end, after all-— Kakuzu still has a gratitude in how blind fate ended up in her favor.
“I’m glad you’re okay.” Words he should be saying come instead from her. Kakuzu can’t even grunt to that, voice trapped behind his mask.
Kisame quietly marvels at this confirmation— yes, even the coldest five hearts can reserve some form of affection— though he also makes a disturbing note. Two violent, ruthless people have crawled to her for comfort, like wild animals finding the warmth of shelter. But she is only so big, the depths of kindness must only go so deep. It is only so long until sharp claws try to dig deeper, try to make more space where the is none to give. Two criminals who only know how to hurt other people. Two murderers with nothing but pride left to lose.
...Hidan not even included in that count.
She plants her care in each of their gardens, the orange spiral notes, and they have returned the favor, no matter how hesitantly. It may not be long before the hearts they plant in her own patch of earth that is her soul begin to crowd, tangle and choke till fertile soil crumbles to dust.
“...You too,” the stitched man finally answers. Her cheek rests deeper into his sunset cloak, and while he does not pull her in, neither does he deny this affection.
The gardener performs her duty diligently, Obito thinks, with sweet hums and dirtied bare hands that unknot the roots of all evils.
─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
The years have been hard on this lonely heart
If you wanna know the truth
There's no more community gardens

Oh also! The bit u said about liking being able to see other people enjoy the fic/talk to them about it is exactly how I feel. I have one friend who I kinda talk to about fics sometimes but he hasn't watched hazbin and doesn't read fandics at all himself so I always feel like it's kinda weird and yeah. Plus kinda annoyed with them atm so yeah no one to really talk to it about(I also kinda forgot to socialise at all over the summer exept when I was on holiday cause I met new friends there and I wanted to spend time with them while I could. But like my lack of socialisation makes it even weirder to message just about a fic they haven't read lol)
But doing this and actually getting to talk about the fic is so mice cause I love talking about things and it's so good being able to ramble immediately and in small bits otherwise all my thoughts like explode in my brain and idk how to explain it. I also always feel like ao3 should do like a lil camera thing in the corner like u have od ourself if you videocall someone and u screenshot it to see ur reaction to big plot twists. Idk it's so stupid but I think it would be such a fun silly idea🤣 I swear my face when I realised the "weird 2 pronged twig" Al was holding after his fight with Vox was his antler my face was like :0
Oh and also what @mothballmilkshake said about messaging. Idk if you've noticed (probs not tbf) but I keep seeing u in my inbox from likes and stuff a couple of times the last day or so and I followed u back earlier but idk if u would be realised it's me or not. Also moth I'm sure you've probably noticed my user from here and ao3 and connected it by now but I'm still on anon for general people thing. Idk why hut non anon is scary when I'm often sending asks idk how to explain it
Don't worry, I haven't figured out who you are! I don't think you need to be scared, though :)

Congrats on the job!! 💞 I’m trying to get one too please wish me luck 😭 if you don’t mind me asking, what does your job entail? I hope it’s something you enjoy doing 💞 also do you have any interview tips.:. I always get so nervous in interviews 😭
THANK YOU BABYYY💓💓💓💓I AM CROSSING ALL OF MY FINGERS FOR YOUU!!! as for tips... this is gonna sound ridiculous because well... it is ridiculous. i always think about george clooney. especially him in ocean's 11 bc he's just thee most charismatic guy in the world??? he looks like he can do anything, he looks like he can talk his way out of everything and so i just try to channel his energy. and it works btw. literally just watch the movie, he's so good.
but as for more practical tips mmmmm i always like to write down some things beforehand. i'm not gonna actually bring the paper with me but it just helps me stay more on track if i've already answered the questions at home by myself. i know about the interviews bc i was very close with my last manager and she always told me everything about the interviews lmao. and ok it seems like i'm gonna ramble so....
the most important thing is to be prepared. and it's actually very important to think of questions for the employer!!!!!!!!! seems silly but it is. it shows that you have, in fact, prepared for this and that you do want the job. and that you are ready to "work for it". please also think about what you want from the job overall – the pay and the hours. if they don't bring them up 1. this is a red flag 2. you need to do it yourself. even if it's scary, you have to, otherwise they just might stomp on you.
never complain about your last employee or the workplace in general. makes you look really bad. even if you absolutely fucking hated the last place, please just say smth else lmao. you don't have to suck up in any way, just refrain from shitting on others. maybe it seems logical but uhh a lot of people do that and yeah. never goes well.
mmmm also keep an eye out for manager red flags too! if they shit on their own company or workers💀💀💀 or when they keep repeating that the Job Is Very Hard. that most likely just means that the management is garbage. i also hate when the interview is half-assed – they want YOU to come and work for them, so they should act like it lmao.i can't stand managers and ceo's who are just way too full of themselves. they have to have the paperwork ready, they have to introduce everything to you, they have to ask about the hours and the pay before going any further.
anywayyy i think that's all for the tips lmao i have big authority issues💀💀💀 so i don't really get nervous. well actually i do bc i do have social anxiety but i'm just so spiteful and i hate obnoxious bosses, so that helps me get over it a little.
the test day is gonna be for a store room job!!! it's nothing special but i do like the work, i used to work at a retail store so i'm very familiar with it. i like work where it's very... repetitive? i like the things a lot of ppl call boring lmao. so i do have high hopes!!!
#nonnie i really am keeping u in my mind!!!!!#hoping you'll find something good#i know you'll ace the interviews!!!!!#also stay true to yourself!!!#i know it's hard sometimes but do think about the fact that they very likely just want MONEY#they just need people so that they can get paid#you need to tske care of yourself nonnie!!!!!!!!!!!#bosses sadly rarely give a fuck#but yeah!!!#and honesty!!!!!!!#be honest!!!!!#YOLO BABYYYYY#friends!!

HSM (2006) rewatch pt 5
5: Audition time!
The ad cuts are taking me out hahaha
We see Sharpay give Darbus some sort of gift, we can guess she’s one of those students where the teachers think she’s the most loveliest thing on the planet but to other students she’s a nightmare
Ah, the first of the classic silly Chad shirts – “I come with my own background music”. How much time does he spend picking these out? And the watches from earlier?? If you think about it the only other guy with an outfit quirk is Ryan- /shot
Chad you’re a terrible spy
Obsessed with this kid who can’t speak because otherwise they’d have to pay the extra more. They actually try to dub over with a voice but it’s so faint it's not even subbed, looks like this kid just randomly grabs Chad’s hand to greet him it’s so funny, but Chad is just like “Oh, hi! :D”. Actually I am now proclaiming this guy is mute.
There’s an auto shop in this school???? So apparently some schools with a focus on trades do have these, huh pretty cool
I love Kelsi’s fit. It’s just so her <3
The first girl is me when I try to sing
Girl with the pink flower's singing skills are about right for the plays I did tbh, it was a small thing in a church hall and not a single one of us kids were actually good at it. But it was fun!
Hey what was with the 2000s and thinking bad opera singing was the height of comedy? We’re only missing their glasses breaking
Darbus: What... courage! To pursue a note that has... not been accessed in the natural world! Bravo, uh, brava! Darbus: Perhaps the spring musicale?
SAVAGE. Also, spring musicale? SO THERE IS A SPRING ONE. WHEN?? If you’re doing AUDITIONS for the winter one in JANUARY, when is the spring one supposed to be??
Mad respect to this ballet guy. Maybe they let him join the ensemble? This reminds me, I caught Billy Elliott on TV the other day and I'm planning on watching Jump In soon, I'm just watching the same old themes this month huh
Darbus: Well that was just... very disturbing. Go see a counsellor
HELLO??? 😭😭😭 I mean I see they were going for the originality points and tried to do some interpretative dance, honestly it’s not too far from GCSE drama productions that always seem to have something to do with peer pressure, drugs or a car crash lmao
Reaction montage because same:
OK now that Gabriella’s here I want to point out that Troy did actually come here of his own accord, of course he’d hoped Gabriella would be there as he was checking the audition sheet earlier, but I see this as being an “it’s less scary if it’s the two of us” thing, rather than him only being interested in the musical because of Gabriella. Sure, she sparked his curiosity as he realised how much he enjoyed the karaoke singing, but once he got to the theatre he wasn’t looking around searching for her - I think due to the sequels where Gabriella has to convince Troy to do the performance and he’s all reluctant at first, we kind of forget that initially, he was the one to take the first step, even if he’s too scared to actually audition here. I kind of wish they’d kept this and progressed it into the sequels so he’s more confident with his love of theatre going forward, but instead they keep repeating the whole “ahhhh I don’t sing” thing.
Gabriella: So you decided to sign up for something? Troy: Uh... no. You? Gabriella: No...
Hahaha Troy and Gabriella are basically like “No I won’t do it uh, unless you wanted to”
Haha, little callback to when she asked him why he's whispering and he said his friends don't know about the singing thing.
RYAN DID THAT CARTWHEEL ONE HANDED??? KING!!!!
Okay Sharpay and Ryan’s version of What I’ve Been Looking For is more fun than Kelsi’s original for sure, but look Kelsi wrote the song that way for a reason – it probably fits the vibe of the scene and the emotions of the characters at that point in the story. So to see your vision ignored, and your song reworked without consulting you, that’s a pretty big insult for an artist. Like, that’s her song! Her creation! Also Sharpay and Ryan don't have the chemistry for the roles for obvious reasons, and their choreography can be a bit… idk... literal? At the line “that you were always there beside me” they often look at each other like “Oh! Haha there you are!” which is a bit of a shallow interpretation of the song imo. Like I get their limitation because they’re siblings, but that’s just showbiz you can’t expect to fit every single main role you audition for? Anyway it’s B tier for me, catchy enough but nothing show-stopping.
I like how there’s little hints at conflicts between the two though, like Sharpay stopping Ryan so she can walk out first, bumping into him during the number and her telling him not to do the jazz squares but Ryan doing it anyway. He’s not completely subservient to her.
Sharpay is so mean to Kelsi and y’all wanna say she was the victim here? She’s an elitist that doesn’t encourage new talent or cooperation, she just likes to be on top.
Gabriella: I'd like to audition, Ms Darbus!
I feel like they could have portrayed Gabriella’s motivations a bit better because they’re a tad unclear for me – with Troy we had scenes about his conflict and we can see he’s genuinely curious about singing on stage, but Gabriella seemed pretty certain she didn’t want to do anything like that right at the start of the year, plus she’s got major stage fright. So what exactly got her to go to the audition? Did she guess Troy would be there? If anyone's got any thoughts or meta on that I'd love to hear it
Troy is so kind to Kelsi aw, taking the time to boost her confidence. It’s not like he knew she’d play them the music, he genuinely just saw someone being mistreated and wanted to boost them up. In the novelisation, Kelsi is freaking out because THE Troy Bolton is talking to her and turns out he's just a nice sweet guy who doesn't think he's above everyone else, it's sweet.
OK I know people laugh at them being able to sightread here, but they already heard how the tune goes as they saw Sharpay and Ryan’s audition, and this is essentially just the same thing slowed down, with some prompts from Kelsi. It’s not thaaaaat farfetched.
So for Troy and Gabriella’s version of the song? I’m sure this version suits that part of the musical more, they have great chemistry when singing it and they can sing well, so I can see why Darbus would consider them. It’s just that in my personal rankings I wouldn’t really listen to this so it’s C tier, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad. The song does exactly what it needs to do at this point in the story.
Aw Kelsi’s so excited! Even inviting them to her house for breakfast practice ^^

Watch It Or Drop It - A 2024 Drama Challenge
As always, the impending chime of a brand New Year just around the corner is stirring up the age old urge to Sort My Life Out somewhere deep inside me and rekindled the burning flame of No I Really Mean It This Time once more.
So far this has meant deep cleaning my house with a fervour rarely seen outside of the pages of the most fanatic of Cleaning Tiktokers (something which will definitely have faded even before the clock strikes 12), setting up a planning and organisational system so that my life can go smoothly for once (that will probably last until summer after which point I'll be so sun addled I'll stop caring about to-do lists altogether), and forcing myself to confront my mountain of unread books (by placing them accusingly next to my bed so I can wake up and fall asleep to them until the growing sense of guilt forces me to hide them in a cupboard).
No a bad start if I may say so myself. It's not even 2024 yet and things are already looking Sorted.
Joking aside though, while there are, as there usually are, big (potentially life changing) goals that I want to work towards this year and which will take a fair bit of work and/or courage on my part to make happen, there are also smaller ones. Manageable ones. Silly ones. Ones that'll make the whole year just a little bit more fun. For example: clearing my MyDramalist Want-To-Watch list.
Because there are 84 dramas on that list and while some of them haven't aired yet, over two thirds of them are fully complete and sitting patiently, ready for me to watch at my own leisure whenever I want.
And, unfortunately, up until now I've been so over-faced with how many dramas there were waiting for me that I didn't want.
At all.
As in I was actively avoiding watching anything off my Want-To-Watch list.
As you can imagine this has been frustrating because 1) this is the opposite of what a Want-To-Watch it's for (I put the dramas on there for a reason after all) and 2) not very conducive to making the big, scary number go down, quite the opposite in fact.
So I've found myself at a bit of an impasse.
And to break that impasse I have come up with (what I hope is) a foolproof solution (because there is nothing more fool than having to trick yourself into doing something you want to do anyway).
The Watch It Or Drop It Challenge
Rationale:
I have been avoiding watching dramas on my Want-To-Watch list because:
1) I'm feeling overwhelmed with the amount of dramas currently on there and end up feeling time pressured to watch them all.
2) Linked to this, I'm worried about making the "wrong choice" (i.e not enjoying which ever drama I pick and being disappointed about something I was previously excited for, being in the wrong mood for a drama I would have otherwise enjoyed) leading to analysis/choice paralysis where I end up being unable to pick anything at all.
As such I need a system that:
1) Takes aways the element of choice, at least in the initial stages.
2) Removes some of the pressure to enjoy every drama I pick and allows me to celebrate both a "watch" or a "drop".
Rules:
1) Dramas are selected completely at random using a random number picker (this random number picker to be precise, isn't she gorgeous?).
Unless it hasn't aired yet (in which case I obviously can't watch it, I'll do a lot for this challenge but not bend time and physics) I have to give it a go. I can't spin the wheel again. What I get is what I watch (or drop).
2) I watch it or I drop it (self-explanatory, really, given the name of the challenge but it's something my brain clearly needs reinforced otherwise we wouldn't be here in the first place). A drop has just as much "value" as a watch in terms of continuing my learning curve about my drama tastes and there's no shame in not liking something I thought I would enjoy.
3) I can take as long as I need to decide if it's a watch or a drop, the only condition is that if I am watching it, I actually have to be enjoying it. This is not an endurance test or an exercise in how long I can guilt myself into watching something (5 minutes before the end of the final episode is the current record by the way, incase anyone's interested), this is me making sure I...
4) ✨ Have fun ✨ There are many things in life that aren't fun, watching dramas should not be one of those things (although they are allowed to make me so uncontrollably, that I will allow, nay even encourage).
🎉 And there we have it! My own little challenge for 2024 🎉
I'm feeling very pleased with myself but let's see how long I can keep it up, unless something drastic happens I'm planning to start a little early and pick the first drama tomorrow. I'm going to be post the whole challenge here (which dramas get picked, pre-watch thoughts, whether I watched or dropped it and why, etc) for accountability's sake because I know myself well enough to know that if I don't then this whole meticulous plan isn't happening. I also think it could be a nice little momento, if this whole challenge is successful, something to look back on from the time I bravely took on and defeated a list of my own creation.
And so without further ado,
#k-drama#thai bl#japanese bl#kbl#watch it or drop it#sorting my life out one drama at a time#because it was getting silly how scared I was of my want to watch list#but I am nothing if not easily trickable#even if the person doing the tricking is also me#so this should solve my drama problems#or make them worse#only time will tell

One Piece Shipping War - Round 2 Side A
Propaganda under the cut.
Propaganda for Franky x Robin:
Do I really need to explain?
The old married couple who's healthy, Enies Lobby (and all their appearances) are their propaganda really.
It’s all about the maturity!
Their dynamic is perfect and their pasts are so similar. I love the chemistry between them as well as their introduction that helped build the connection and shared history they already have.
they are THE t4t bi4bi ship | franky telling robin "existing is not a crime" immediately puts this at number one for me | they are opposites (bright and loud + quiet and goth) but also they're both so eccentric and silly <3 | THEY WEAR MATCHING OUTFITS
Mom and dad Straw Hat
They are STILL the Mom and the Dad of the Straw Hats, this is the one thing I don't care what Oda says <3 Also their interactions in Enies Lobby and Thriller Bark are amazing.
In my eyes, they are married. Some of my favorite character interactions in the manga/anime and in official art.
Oda had Franky call Robin his wife at least once
Your honor they’re married
I'M GOING TO PUT LINKS IN MY EXAMPLES (Mod note: I linked to the whole post, the propaganda was going to get too long otherwise. But I will copy this line:...) They immediatly clicked in Enies Lobby, Franky saved Robin with both words and actions ("Your existence is not a sin!"), and then she grabbed his balls.
The duality of two kids who were just trying to chase their dream and having circumstances outside their control (the government) take everything they love away from them, but one choosing solitude and the other adopting every other person in a bad circumstance??? I love them. Plus they literally had couple moments from the first interaction.
The ultimate t4t couple idk what else you need theyre iconic
A wholesome ship of a woman who feels the need to be constantly on edge trying to relax and a man who is a 110% himself from the moment we see him. the joy of frobin is the causal domesticity, in many color spreads and especially post timeskip we can see them casually enjoying the others company.
Remember when Franky was in Chopper's body in Punk Hazard and every time he spoke Robin was like "Franky. Stop talking. Do not talk while you're in Chopper's body."
idk like. he's obsessed with her. she's his weird Goth gf and he's her himbo. they have matching outfits. I love them.
Look. It's Franky and Robin. Literally the only two characters that make sense to ship on the Sunny. Their arcs are inextricably intertwined (water7/enies lobby). Also LOOK AT THEM interacting, both during their arcs, but also thriller bark, or post time skip. I love them. Also robin crushed frankys balls.
funny big robot man & analytical smart research lady power couple... silly x smart... himbo x researcher... augh... so good
They are the ship for taxpaying adults your honor I LOVE them they’re literally freak4freak and they share such a fucking powerful arc together (Water 7).
that moment she let him sleep on her lap in punk hazard was sooo cute <3 -- The matching thigh highs and bottoms in film z can NOT be understated. -- Strawhat mom and dad -- Let's not forget the way robin convinced franky to join ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) -- she also indirectly called his balls "treasure" so,,, -- the way their stories are so closely intertwined...they were both keys to destroy the world...the way they instantly connected over that...the soulmate-ism of it all...
they . them. girlboss and malewife. that's it.
She grabbed his balls. He totally liked it.
He's so silly and she loves it. She's so scary and he loves it. She grabbed his balls in public.
They will be endgame trust me. Franky doesn't treat any other girl like he treats Robin. There dynamic in Water 7 and Thriller Bark was and always will be one of the best in all of OP.
Propaganda for Rayleigh x Shakky:
They’re canon and very hot. These are facts.

13. what themes/motifs do you hope other people notice most about your character?
QUESTIONS FOR MUNS. // always accepting!
Oooh I love this one, thank you for sending it in! The themes/motifs I hope people take away the most from my portrayal of Law are as follows:
(Slight disclaimer that so much of my portrayal is heavily influenced by the Law novel but I'm going to try to do this without any spoilers for those who haven't read it.)
1. A profound sense of obligation/responsibility. Law is very driven by the things he feels he owes people, from the desire to keep going and live the life Cora-san sacrificed his to save to the sense of safety and certainty he takes very seriously to instill in his crew as the captain. This is really interesting to me because I feel like so many of the people he feels he owes things to, whether it's just because of the roles he's taken on or a sense of indebtedness for things they've done for him, would be the first ones to tell him "you don't owe me anything." This is likely a flimsy, surface-deep attempt at avoiding having to admit he cares and wants to do these things for people but it's definitely got roots in Wolf's insistence on a "give and take" system between him, Law, and the OG3 friends. "We're not friends, nothing is free, if you stay you work," etc.
2. Internal conflict or murky reasoning on what makes a person "good" - particularly in regards to himself. Law has been telling himself he's "not a good person" since he was a child, so this goes deeper than just "we're pirates, we're not supposed to be good". But other than being an Instigating Little Shit™, I think we've actually seen very little evidence of Law being a bad person (if at all). Yes, he was in a really dark spot after the fall of Flevance, but who can really blame him for that? There's the Rocky Port Incident/the whole one hundred hearts thing, but to be honest I've got some thoughts about that (tl:dr; I don't think that story is what it appears. possible hc post coming soon) Anyway - with the reading of the Law novel I really don't feel like Law has the same extent of existential crisis/inner turmoil I originally interpreted, but he definitely still doesn't consider himself a good person and the reasoning behind that is something I really enjoy exploring/pondering on.
3. Prefacing this with the fact that I 100% interpret Law as autistic - Law is WAY more socially awkward than he is stoic. Now, he absolutely knows he comes across as RBF and does nothing to dispute it because it works for his "big bad scary surgeon of death" persona - but if anything that's just another surface layer to keep distance between him and anyone that might want to get to know him. He hates the idea of looking silly and wants to come across as cool and composed so he definitely leans hard on not saying anything at all when he's in doubt or knows he'd otherwise let slip that he's an awkward dork that's y'know... secretly a good person.
This got way longer than it should have and honestly I probably could have kept going with more, but... those are the top 3 things I hope people pick up on from my portrayal.

tagged by @aranarumei hi kiri. I copy-pasted these however from @sunnnfish because of post work laziness. hi sunnnfish
1. Are you named after anyone?
if we’re talking real person name then no. if we’re talking dirtbrain name then also no, unless you count a joke from 50% off, which I do not. I like both names just fine though
2. When was the last time you cried?
I was shedding tears over silly things last night if that counts. real big emotion crying I don’t remember actually how long ago, but probably not very. I’m a crybaby I cry all the time
3. Do you have kids? / recommend a song?
got apollo justice on the brain and in the membrane so Solitary Confinement - Darkness Theme. for when you’re feeling nefarious and willing to take all of your many secrets to the fucking grave
4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
well. yes. way way more when I was younger but I think it still makes up like a sizable fraction of my speech. I do think I’m a little less of an asshole now though
5. What sports do you play/have played?
Ha ha. ah. I did ballet and other dance for a spell when I was a kid but unfortunately didn’t keep that up, but I was generally pretty fast and halfway athletic then too. didn’t do sports after that unless you. unless you want to count marching band, which I wouldn’t because we were pretty lax about it. like marching band can be very impressive and deeply deeply athletic but ours was not, which was fine because I got sick and fucked up for a while anyway. and I’m not doing any sports now in college, but if it doesn’t get cancelled* then I’ll be doing table tennis this next semester. Guess why
*several similar classes I’ve signed up for previously have gotten cancelled. massive bummer
6. What’s the first thing you notice about people?
I guess from afar how tall someone is. up close more just expression, try to get a read on how they’re feeling and so on
7. Eye color?
also hazel :)
8. Scary movies or happy endings?
I think. I can probably count on one hand the amount of horror movies I’ve watched. but then again I’m not much of a movies guy to begin with. so happy endings
9. Any special talents?
ahhhh I can clap with one hand with both hands. like both hands can clap without the other. I have gotten weird looks for this
10. Where were you born / what made you make a tumblr account?
a hospital that is not in the united states :) / my sister made one and the younger sibling follower gene compelled me to do so also. and that was. maybe 9 years ago. 2014 ish. I should be clear that I was not old enough to be making an account, or on the internet in general probably, and this is definitely a big contributor to the various things wrong with me
11. What are your hobbies?
video game slash reading slash talking to myself slash writing slash watching things when I can get myself to. I don’t leave the house. occasionally I will get into a big crossword and word search phase. I almost forgot photography That would’ve been silly
12. Do you have any pets?
two of them! a cat and dog we all collectively call them the kids even though dogs an old man. he is a human person with anxiety. cat is more dog than dog, who is as we just established a human person. they both get a photo with dramatic lighting
they are everything to me
13. How tall are you?
5’6” last I checked
14. Favorite subject in school?
when there was a good teacher then anything english adjacent. specifically with a focus on literature. otherwise. band. actually I lied the real answer is essentially always band
15. Dream job?
I don’t . have one. I know what I’m aiming for and I’m really pretty sure I’ll enjoy it but I think if we’re talking dreams like ‘I don’t have back problems nor the stamina of a grandparent’ then I’d do odd jobs I think. I’d probably be content picking up trash
as for tags @x-eins @vyathacov if you wanna and anyone else who feels like it. it’s fun it’s like a sharing circle
#two notes really. why is everyone a) so athletic and b) shorter than i am. jarring!#i miss concert band so bad though. so so so bad i love playing music with other people and sitting down while i do it…..#the concert band at school though meets in the EVENING. like 8 or 9. i miss playing music but—alas!—not nearly that much#i can daydream though. sighing longingly#reminds me. i really have a lot to say about the apollo justice ost. huh

Are you named after anyone?
No, I'm told my parents thought really long about my name until my mom woke up in the middle of the night and suddenly just knew.
When was the last time you cried?
Yesterday lmao, after finishing gankutsuou. (And saturday after watching an ep of gankutsuou, and last wednesday when I went to see the Aida musical...)
Do you have kids?
Nope, maybe someday maybe not.
Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Not really, when I'm in a certain mood with friends then yes but otherwise I just say what I mean.
What sports do you play?
I have a horse so horseriding, aside from that I don't really do sports. I used to do sailing until I was 16, and now I do it ocassionally with a friend or with my dad, and I used to do streetdance when I was little. I do love to hike though! Always loved the adventurous vacations my parents used to take me n my siblings on and we'd go for hikes through forests and mountains, I'd love to do that again sometime.
What's the first thing you notice about people?
I'm not sure actually, the way people talk maybe? I often pay attention to eye color as well for some reason.
What's your eye color?
Brown, a little darker than my dad and a little lighter than my brother :)
Scary movies or happy endings?
Both? I like all kinds of movies. Though I never watch scary movies alone lmao no fun in getting scared if you can't laugh about it with someone else. Happy endings always make me very emotional, especially if it's done well. Tho endings in general are pretty emotional to me, no matter if it's happy or not.
Any special talents?
Remembering song lyrics! If there's a song that I, anywhere in my life, knew completely, there's a big chance I still do. I learn pretty quick too, considering I memorized a song from the aida musical last week in like. 3 days. (I do have to mention those were a few days of non stop listening to it)
Where were you born?
Netherlands! Specifically a very small town in north Holland, all the way at the top of the province. It's located above sea level on what used to be an island up until about 200 years ago, and now that I've moved out I live in a different small town on that same island (like 3 km from my parents house).
What are your hobbies?
Drawing, reading, listening to music and picking out background instruments, playing piano (tho I don't do it so often anymore), watching anime, playing games (esp totk and genshin atm) and I really enjoy being outside with my dog or my horse or just being in nature in general.
Do you have any pets?
My sweet puppy hannah (she's 5 and huge but still forever a puppy), my cats samson and gert (named after a belgium tv show for kids) and me and my sister have two horses named mira and april. Mira is almost 24 and deep deep inside really sweet but can be kinda mean on the outside and april is almost 13 and loves cuddling :). I'm almost everyday at my parents house so I think those pets count too, so there's billie and borre (two dogs), kebab and bobbie (sheep), scooby (cat who is 10? Older? Idk) and the 5 chickens who don't really have names so we just call them "the chickies". Also Teddie's cat tijger is staying with me atm and he's a cutie :).
How tall are you?
1 meter 68, which I'm totally fine with. Tho it is a little weird that my little brother who's 7 years younger is taller than me now.
Favorite subject in school?
I didn't really have one tbh, but if I had to choose probably english? That one was the easiest for me so I didn't mind it.
Dream job?
My dream is to live on a small farm consisting of a little house with some property around it for my animals, and to spend my days doing my silly hobbies and spending a lot of time outside walking my dog or riding my horse. So whatever job I can do that makes enough money and enough free time :) I'd pass away before working a fulltime job tbh. I'm studying rn so maybe I can set smth up for myself once I have my diploma, but idk yet.
Whoever wants to do this too consider yourself tagged!!
