#they don't have raccoons

[pilferingapples]

I realize the wildlife situation in France is different, I KNOW that intellectually, but every time I read about Myriel's lockless doors all my experience living in the sticks screams that the raccoons are gonna clean that entire house OUT

This was the funniest thing that ever happened in this game you can't convince me otherwise.

Sometimes you'll be reading a fic set in the UK and then they talk about seeing a raccoon and you have to take a second to just blink and work out how to accept that before you keep reading.

i'm still stuck on the purgatories so here's a list of purgatory 2 moments simply off the top of my head that deserve to be remembered:

aimsey ducking all of axolotl team alone in a cave with literally half a heart

goose gang fucking descending on the raccoon base and absolutely wrecking shop

ethan crankgameplays clutching up for team panda during the capture the flag game by being the only one hanging out in the center and periodically checking the chests, earning them a shitton of flags and clutching multiple rounds

crow team's egg taking 0 damage

pac doxxing goose gang's egg in the last second

shelby shubble as the last member of her team online writing a letter to aimsey and sharing the world's most devastating ten minutes before her team was eliminated with one of the eye creatures (coco? i forgot lol)

badboyhalo absolutely fucking DEMOLISHING the battleship event on like 2 hours of sleep and a dream

wuant(?) stealing a tv from the battleship event and then playing portuguese ice age on it for the crows lmfao

tubbo djing for his team while waiting for the time for a goose gambit

theguill CRASHING THROUGH THE FUCKING CEILING of the raccoon team's hidey hole like the fucking kool aid man in a last effort to save his team and 4v1 or 5v1 ing team raccoon; he lost but that was such an epic fucking moment

theguill and etoiles pvping and each hyping the other's skills the entire time

seapeekay escaping cellbit and baghera and then stealing their boats and rocketing past to tease them about it; that shit was iconic

kenny going mad with power collecting sand on literally day 1

the english speaking squirrels taking actual physical notes on portuguese phrases (i think)

lgbtiba

i may add more this is an off the top of my head list but like got DAMN i like these events :D i like them a lot

[canisalbus]

Everyone's talking about how cute raccoons are, and while i agree wholeheartedly, all i can think about it the time i was at camp and i woke up to raccoons in our tent cause one was patting my ass through my cot, and then another grabbed one of the other girls' hands and she screamed and our councilor had to literally sweep the raccoons out of our tent with the broom she grabbed to hit intruders with lol. we made extra sure everything was zipped all the way closed after that

Nothing explicit, but I've cropped it in case tumblr bans my posts again, full version at my privatter, answer with yes or no for the age question and you should be able to see it

We really should have been able to rule together... We could have faced it all, and gave him a headstart at the end.

But alas, they could have never worked. He didn't want to crush the city and turn it's rivers red, he wanted to rule it.

The more I learn about Civil War politics, the more I'm convinced that Lincoln's most impressive and useful leadership trait was that he never let his pride get in the way of doing his job.

Other people in Lincoln's position would have come to Washington with something to prove. They'd have resented the insults and tried to disprove them. They'd have tried to seize power and credit, rejected help, spent a lot of time trying to reach a certain level of respect.

Lincoln's response to, "You're just a backwoods lawyer with no executive experience who makes too many dumb jokes," was pretty much always, "Yeah. And?" He had no interest in petty personal power plays. He had a country to run. There was a war on. It didn't matter what people thought of him so long as the job got done.

He was aware of his personal shortcomings and was always willing to accept advice and help from people who had more knowledge and experience in certain areas. He presided over a chaotic Cabinet full of abrasive personalities who thought they were better and smarter than him, but he kept working with them because they could get the job done. For example: Stanton was absolutely horrible to him when they were both working as lawyers. Just incredibly mean on a personal level. But when Lincoln needed someone to replace Cameron, he swallowed his pride and appointed Stanton as Secretary of War, where Stanton proceeded to be mean to everyone in the world, but he whipped that department into shape and kept it running efficiently through a very chaotic war. Pretty much no one except Lincoln would have been able to put up with that. He could put up with people who were personally difficult if they could do the job he needed them to do--which he was only able to do because his own ego didn't get in the way.

Lincoln's example is a prime demonstration of how humility isn't underrating yourself--it's being so secure in your own abilities and identity that you don't need to attack anyone or defend yourself to prove your worth. He knew his shortcomings, but he also knew his strengths. He was willing to give other people credit for successes and take blame upon himself for failures if it kept things running smoothly. He was secure enough in his own power that he could deal generously--but firmly--with people who tried to undermine him. In a city full of huge egos, in a profession that rewards puffed-up pride, that levelheaded humility is an extremely rare trait--which is what made it so impressive and effective.

Quite a long ask- feel free to ignore!

This might end up being my last one for the day(there's a high chance I will come up with something new and send in another at 3 AM)

Buutttt this is another don't imagine(or just a regular ask, either is alright) for his Lordship again.

This correlates with our earlier battle in the comment section of my last poking-

An s/o that steers closer to what his brother would probably appreciate more, rambunctious and silly, always full of energy and trying to make their grumpy skeleton smile.

Even when they're supposed to be sleeping, they're up and doodling on a piece of discarded paper or reading a book with the lamp on-

But on the off-hand, when they are upset, the whole castle is dead quiet.

These are one of those days. No loud laughs outside of s/o playing with the animals, no humming within the library as they read, no poking and prodding at Nightmare's side as they attempt to make him even crack a smile.

Dead silence and the looming negative energy of someone grieving.

Wow, you gave me a bunch to work with. I appreciate this very interesting request!

Just an FYI, the universe that Lord Nightmare resides in doesn't have traditional day/night cycles and it is always dark thanks to his influence. As such, the concept of the sun and the word "day" is nearly non-existent to the denizens and I have replaced the word with the term "working hours". "Night" is referred to as "sleep cycle(s)" as well.

Don't imagine falling into a slump, having a bad day, waking up on the wrong side of the bed, or whatever you want to call it. How you woke up early in the working hours with a profound sense of wrongness. How there's something weighing heavy on your soul.

Don't imagine hiding away in your room and refusing to come out, no matter how many times the others knock on your door. How you can't help but mourn the loss of someone very dear to you. How you've wept bitterly over them for hours until you have no more tears to shed. How there's no way you can return to your normally carefree attitude any time soon.

Don't imagine the air in your room shifting ever so subtly. How you sense your partner before he even announces his presence. How he parts the curtains ever so slightly so he can crack a window to let some fresh air in. How he sits on the edge of your bed and silently strokes your hair. How you can feel his eyelight on you and how you just know he's wondering what's bothering you.

Don't imagine how he remains by your side for what feels like ages. How he doesn't seem to be paying much attention to you except for what little comfort he can give. How you let him stay, although you don't have the strength to kick him out of your room anyways.

Don't imagine how he quietly asks if you would like him to help you. How you know without asking that he wants your permission to absorb your negative emotions. How he almost sounds unsure of himself, as if he's wondering if this is even the best thing to do. How strange it is to see him at a loss for once.

Don't imagine how you slowly nod. How he hesitates for a moment as if expecting you to change your mind. How he moves a few strands of hair out of your face and how his claws harmlessly brush against your cheek as he does so. How he presses his other hand against your forehead and how you relish how cool his bones feel.

Don't imagine his cyan eyelight flickering before glowing brighter than before. How almost immediately your immense grief seems to dull. How you heave a sigh of relief and manage a small smile. How your partner studies you for a moment before leaning back again.

Don't imagine how he asks if you're alright. How he doesn't sound convinced when you tell him that you're fine and how he asks if there's anything else he can do for you. How you hesitate for a moment before asking if he'll stay.

Don't imagine how he nods and moves to the other side of the bed. Definitely don't imagine how the mattress dips as he lays down and how he curls up behind you. How his tendrils carefully work their way underneath your sheets and around your body. How he holds you close so you can almost feel the thrum of his own mana.

Don't imagine how he asks if you'd like to talk about what's upsetting you. How he murmurs that the castle feels lonely without you around. How you know that he will stay for as long as you want him to. How your heart still hurts but how grateful you are to know that he understands your grief. How he's not going to force you to do anything but that he'll do his best to take care of you.
