faniil favorite holiday & how they celebrate??

Ahhh!! Thanks so much for the ask!! It’s fairly obvious but I adore rambling about the sillies!! :) :) uhhh brief mention of suicide nothing graphic however to answer this question I’ve gotta mention some Fal backstory stuff which involves the topic.

Well starting off I can confirm they do not celebrate Christmas at all, as previously mentioned Falin has issues related to the holiday due to making an attempt on his life on Christmas Day after a particularly nasty fight with his father. So for the obvious reasoning Falin can’t stomach the holiday and Daniil never cared much for the holiday beyond his family making him celebrate so it works out. Though post canon Falin might do something minor like getting both Clara and willow gifts despite his discomfort surrounding the holiday he’d still want to give both a gift or two, Daniil would probably just buy people gifts and claim it’s from the both of them to save Falin the stress of having to associate with the holiday further.

As for favorite holiday probably pretty obvious but Halloween!! Both of them are rather extravagant individuals so Halloween would be a perfect time to show off their amazing fashion senses with a duo costume. After all they are the capitals best couple so they have to put together the greatest costume!! However I think they’d both have opposing ideas on the prompt, for examples the idea could be demons!! One would show up as a thoughtful rendition of a classic painting on the subject and the other will show up in a rather…. skimpy version of a demon. As for celebrating it truthfully depends on if this is university or if it’s at the age they are in canon, in university they’d definitely go to a party or two a common friend threw however speaking on current age?? They might still do costumes but just as a fun side thing they’re both far too busy for actually festivities though perhaps thanatica had the occasional Halloween party.

Post canon however I think fal would insist that they take Clara out trick or treating since ya know she deserves a proper childhood and to get to do things any kid does, but also there’s so much potential of danill being Clara’s brother in law that I do not tap into and I think Halloween where he’s left in charge of taking her trick or treating while Falin is busy working is a very good opportunity for that. Suppose there’s also Halloween stuff fanill related that could happen in regards to that homunculus daughter but that’s for another time.

However separately Daniil would take Valentine’s Day very seriously the date on the calendar in his study is marked days ahead of time, he picks out a gift for Falin months in advance he clears his schedule for the day months in advance insisting that they have dinner at the same restaurant they had dinner at after getting married cough cough elopingin the middle of the night during exam season He’s very dead set in it going the same way every year!! Without fail that’s how it’s going to be!! Nothing but the best for his mae vita!! (As for the gifts I think they’d get eachother for Valentine’s Day I think he gets Fal something seal related since nobody else recalls how much he truly adores seals that or perhaps he’d get him some jewelry for his navel?? and Falin would get danko a new beetle for his collection!! Since he knows Daniil loves beetles or perhaps a new microscope after his old one finally gave out!!)

As for Falin he’s not big on holidays honestly however he would be big on birthdays, again case of planning far far ahead in advance the day is marked on his calendar, gifts hidden in his office (as his study is a far to obvious place to look.) he’s already got flowers arranged dinner reservations (Daniil only for those obviously lol)!! He is more than prepared!! He’s hand writing fifty different cards on how much the birthday person means to him and others. Depending on the party and what they prefer maybe he plans a party it depends just I’m starting to get tired you get the point I’m sorry I’m getting sleepy lol I hope these don’t suck lol

tell me about your worst guy

ok a summary of the campaign and what has happened so far, as quick as I can. the campaign is based on the life series started by Grian Minecraft (the irl guy) - tldr all the PCs plus a handful of NPCs are in a death game (kind of think the hunger games in terms of how much space they have. but add minecraft mechanics) and they each have a limited amount of lives; once they reach their last life (red), they get to/have to start killing people. last person standing is the winner. to make things more silly goofy, there is also the boogeyman mechanic, where at least one person per session is chosen to be the "boogeyman" and they have to kill another player or else lose all but their last life at the end of the session.

there are also these beings called the watchers. if you don't know what they are, think angels who love watching people Go Through It in these life games. Aphim is a watcher, but a disgraced one - this game is his last chance to redeem himself. so he NEEDS to win. additionally, he has been told that he has to kill Beau, an NPC who has been in the games previously, was formerly a watcher (which Aphim. dubiously knows in canon? I don't remember), and is currently trying to stop the games from continuing. also he and Aphim are uh. how do I say this. homosexual. Beau is trying to seduce Aphim away from the watchers and Aphim has no fucking clue how to feel about it because he has never been flirted with before. especially not by a hot man. anyway

something you need to know about Aphim is that his normal form, his watcher form, is nowhere near human. he is towering and winged and has far too many eyes and a few too many joints and when he does not need a contained physical form he does not really have one. imagine a desolate, snowy forest of birch. he is the trees and their eye-like knots and the blanket of snow and the spaces between and the void above and the distant stars. that is Who He Is. but for the game he has to be contained in a human form and he Hates It. there is nothing he loathes more. it's like gender dysphoria but for what kind of thing he is. the only thing he loathes nearly as much is the thought of losing his power and autonomy, which is what will happen if he fails the watchers.

and every time he fails to kill Beau, even though he's not red yet and so by the rules of the watchers' game can't yet kill Beau, the watchers threaten his wings. which he obviously is not a huge fan of. so even though he is very intrigued by Beau and what Beau's trying to tell him, the selfishness will always win out.

cut to the most recent session. boogeyman is rolled. the gang [Aphim, Beau, Orla (NPC), Carwyn (Mura's PC), and Apate (Laurie's PC) wakes up to find Synne (NPC who is someone from the real world isekaied into the game. funny as hell) gone. they go to look for Synne. Synne comes out of the bushes trying to attack Beau; Apate and Aphim (who, by the way, hate each other so bad - Apate has a lot of watcher trauma to work through and Aphim just finds her annoying) notice first. Apate (who has also latched onto Beau as a way out of her Literal Trauma Cycle) goes straight to trying to attack Synne. Aphim disarms Synne.

meanwhile, halfway across the map, Arsené (Ophelia's PC) and Achlys (Chrys's PC) both notice a Very Bad Vibe Shift in, like, the fabric of the universe. something is about to go so horribly wrong.

Synne lunges for Beau's throat but Orla blocks Synne; Beau briefly restrains Synne. the moment they touch, Aphim is hit with a wash of pain so bad his entire body just goes numb. it's the feeling he gets when the watchers summon him from the game to talk to him but far, far worse.

which is the bigger threat right now? Synne or Beau?

who is the subject every time the watchers summon him?

he attacks Beau.

obviously, Orla and Apate do not take kindly to this. in fact, they end up killing him about it LMAO (also, side note. all Beau did was push the axe further in. which was INSANE) (he didn't die; Arsené, Achlys, and their allies showed up and helped him). so he's on his second to last life right now

before he respawned, he had a vision where aforementioned Grian Minecraft (the character, this time) (he is also a former watcher) went hey bud. maybe think about what you really want. the watchers will fuck you up. and Aphim (digging his teeth into his monstrousness so hard it'll hurt) basically went hm. no 💛

and then he was also briefly back in the white space where the watchers summon him to talk. and all he felt was their towering presences and disappointment. and then he respawned. so obviously he is going to be so normal about all of this next session,

4. Only a mother could love and 13. Worst mistake you've made?

4. Only a mother could love

Reisende. his mother (and father) did love him and did everything she could for him to grow up well and be kind, but he just didn't follow that path. despite him leaving, and all the terrible things he's done, and his father losing any affection toward him, and knowing Reisende was never coming back, she still always loved him. but he never thought about her after he left, and doesn't know she died. he wouldn't care if he learned.

overall, a massive prick of a dragon who others may have loyalty for, but no love or affection ever since

13. Worst mistake you've made?

not backing the kickstarter....... i literally saw it and i wanted to but didn't. i could've had gen1 imps. the closest i'll ever get to that is the time i nested a gen1 imp pair like 7 years ago. it haunts me constantly

[fraternum-momentum]

wait waht weirdos?? also could we know your boundaries regarding your ocs? they’re really cool but it would be nice to know what is allowed and what isnt for making a character for this au. thanks 🤍🤍

Fortunately, there hasn't been any weird people in my inbox but some shit happened and i'd rather not elaborate bc it's not in my place to tell you about it, but for context, the gist of it was people were fighting over this person's oc and the creator and other people are getting harrased for it.

Another mutual of mine told me that they also had unpleasant experiences with an old blog of theirs, and they had to delete it bc of it.

I just don't want any infighting or harassment getting sent to other people over something that's honestly not that serious.

People design and create characters because it's fun. Why ruin it for everyone else?

Just please keep it all lighthearted and don't make it weird. Constantly check yourself and ask if what you're doing is ok or think about how your actions affect other people.

Reality checks are also important. Please keep in mind that these are just fictional characters in a fictional universe that i just made up. None of this shit is real.

ok so i'll establish the boundaries for my ocs:

Fanart is ok, sfw and nsfw. Thirsts in my inbox, tags, and comments are fine too, they're pretty funny actually AHSVA it's like wow is this what it feels like having bitches? LMAWDOAD but i digress.

I'm still unsure about ship art, because it'll inevitably get messy if i start allowing it. So for now, it's not allowed. I would be the only person that can draw my ocs interacting with your ocs/sonas/etc. Just think of it as like some sort of weird rp chatbot askblog or some shit,, i dont know.

I know it may seem hypocritical of me because i literally have a self insert but its just better to prevent potential shit from happening than finding a solution for it.

If ship art not being allowed somehow upsets you, then that's a sign that you're not welcome here.

My sona is a different story though, because it's basically just a representation of me so you can draw her ( or me??? idk lol) with your character. same thing, sfw and nsfw are okay. Thrists are fine (who would even do that anyway 💀💀) like i doubt anyone would start causing problems from me interacting with other ppl bc im a real person???????? idk??????? 😭ive alr drawn stuff with my mutuals too anyway so

2 days till my final exam rant in tags sorry i gotta let it spill somewhere 😭

stumbled on your blog as having been a netflix show watcher only (the horrors), but been interested in seeing how the Comics handle Murdock as clearly there's a huge divide. Any comic recs to start off?

As someone who would fight tooth and nail for one particular comics guy that got a movie interpretation recently (that got more interest in him, yippee! also looking back completely misinterpreted him. noir peter why did you get Nicolas Cage as your VA what are they doing to you), I sympathize with The Sufferings

honestly my only, or rather, top daredevil comic recommendation is to open readallcomics.com, scroll to the bottom of the daredevil title, start from v1 #1 and read from there, all the way into whatever you think satisfies what you believe to be a foundation for his character. <- this can be many things for many different people; personally, frank miller, (the man without fear #1-#5, v1 #165-166, #168-191, #219, and #226-233), ann nocenti (v1 #236, #238-245, #247-257, and #259-291), dg chichester (v1 #297-300), brian michael bendis (v2 #16-19, #26-50, and #56-81), and mark waid (v3 and 4) form the main foundation for how i perceive the daredevil title/most of its characters and an amalgamation of these interpretations pretty much spectate my own interpretations of both other canon/non-canon/fanon as well as my own meta interpretations.

a few stand out runs include: jeph loeb's yellow and david mack's parts of a hole (as well as the previously mentioned run he did with bendis, end of days). it's also important that you don't mix up frank miller's the man without fear 1993 with jed mackay's man without fear 2019.

this will also help: it's a very detailed daredevil reading list, with notes that i usually agree with and i recommend to everyone that wants a daredevil reading/rec list. the daredevil subreddit's reading list largely caters specifically towards fans of the mcu that are getting into the comics for the first time; this list gives you comparisons and inspirations for specific seasons of marvel's daredevil and provides fans who are only looking for the essentials with their own recommended reading order.

i didn't read daredevil chronologically—i started with what was most recent when i got into the comics in january 2022, meaning i started with zdarsky (v6 and devil's reign (or what was out for it at the time)), hopped all the way to waid's, read through soule's v5 and his renumbered run, jumped all the way back to miller and read my way up to waid (reading spin offs, events, annuals and other essentials in no particular order at the same time, after which i reread waid, soule and zdarsky), then i hyperfixated on sam chung -> mike murdock, read only the parts of v1 i had left to read that had to do with mike, read daredevil 1964 #1 - #16, and finally fixated on mike murdock for all of 2023 until basically now lol. so basically, don't worry if you don't get everything to slot into place perfectly, going back and forth won't ruin anything.

i have a mike murdock reading list if you're interested and other essential, non-daredevil and daredevil adjacent runs i recommend are jessica jones' alias, written by briam michael bendis and daredevil: noir.

personally, i think daredevil and his story is/is intended to be, by most writers before the nmcu show, culturally christian in the same way that northeastern and southwestern usamerican pop culture is—that is, that you simply cannot escape it and a lot of media either knowingly or unknowingly leans into the aesthetics of it to get their story (themes, metaphors, symbolism) across better (largely because of the sheer amount of people who exist that are culturally christian).

either way, good luck and feel free to send more questions if you need anything to be clarified, no matter how small or insignificant the detail may seem :)

secondly, what ya workin' on currently? <- is deathly interested, yes please please please info dump if you have the spoons

Bonjour my furry friend. At the moment i'm mostly working on getting a job so that i can afford rent, but when i'm not doing that, i'm working on designing some new N-substituted 5MeO-tryptamines (in order to avoid being banned for breaking tumblr TOS, i can't say exactly what for, but if you look up 5MeO-tryptamines, you should see). So far i've only managed to make things that make me super sleepy (and maybe a tiny bit inebriated), so presumably my body is mainly metabolizing them into melatonin. I also have been working on working through the details of making a rocket engine which relies on both muon catalyzed fusion and z-pinch fusion (mostly because even though i know it's way above what i'm probably capable of, i just love space so much i desperately need to see it for myself and i figure that since rockets are so absurdly expensive, the only way i'll end up in space is if we can get a whole new generation of ultra-efficient rockets (for example, given p-N14 fusion, if we manage to get 1% or more (i don't really expect more than 0.1% max, but still) of the hydrogen fusing with nitrogen, we'd be able to put 150 tons on the moon from earth with only using about enough fuel to fill a small car (instead of needing a skyscraper sized rocket to send maybe 30 tons)). Now, if it were as easy as my calculations show it to be, i can't imagine how there are any rockets flown that aren't fusion, but seeing as i haven't even made a working proof of concept yet, i'm not in a position to criticize the thousands of aerospace engineers who are working on conventional chemical rockets. I love fusion because it's simultaneously so easy (i live pretty close to an old uranium mine where i can actually pan some uranium out of the creek near me, then use that uranium to make a neutron source (B10(α,n)) which is really just fusion between helium and boron, happening at room temperature because of how high energy the α particles released by uranium are) and so absurdly difficult (without catalysts like muons, it requires absurdly high temperatures and pressures that almost always take more energy put in than they can give out). Anyway, i've also been sorta working on studying a material that a while back i got way too excited over and may have called a room temperature superconductor (almost certainly not the case), but in an attempt to make it more pure and study it for real i've been trying to work on the exact calculations of its composition and finding a better way to heat it up to high temperatures (i might just put it in a flat-bottomed flask, especially since it finally warmed up enough for me to go back outside where the fumes released by its production won't make folks mad).

And then there's the biological experiments, currently with electroceutical tissue modifications since most of the other projects i have planned require me to have a gene printer capable of reliably printing genes thousands of base pairs long and i'm not sure when i'll be able to build that. The most recent thing i've been working on is really exciting because if it works it means that i've successfully done something that has never been done before to a human body (and given the long lasting pain in that part of my thigh, it seems very possible it is working), but i'm hesitant about sharing what the project is because i don't really want folks putting gap junction blockers, calcium channel blockers, and sodium channel blockers into open wounds without knowing how to do it safely and correctly to get the desired results and not just a really messed up wound. If/when this experiment turns out well, i might give directions in private, but i'm still somewhat hesitant due to the risks inherent in this (the biggest and most likely is literally giving yourself a form of cancer, something i'm not eager for others to risk). Soon i might try chemical dedifferentiation of skin cells (thinking on my back or upper arms) followed by some mildly dangerous experiments to test how reliably i can make it turn into other cell types. And while i haven't made good work on it in a while, i've also been trying to make something similar to shimmer from arcane (ideally not addictive or harmful to the user, but most importantly the quick energy burst, decreased pain, and increased regenerative abilities (obviously it won't be anywhere near as dramatic as in the show, so calling it shimmer may not really make sense, but it is where i got the inspiration)).

Then i suppose there's the battery project i was talking about in my last post, and i'm also trying to learn how to make alcohol under my desk (i mean, it's super easy, it just doesn't taste great). There might be a few more things i'm working on but rn i'm super eepy and have talked about a lot already. If this seems like i'm doing a lot or impressive, also note that i'm actively failing out of college (for my own pride: the material is super easy and mostly i already know it, i just can't stand wasting so much of my time doing homework that doesn't help anyone or anything) and not yet working a job, so i have a lot of time and so much free brainspace to think about and do all this. I also work very slowly on each thing because i keep bouncing back and forth between all of them and almost always end up adding new projects before i've finished the old ones and so i almost never see a project all the way through to completion (at least some of the bio projects are just sitting in my body and i am just waiting to see how they turn out in the next 2-3 months, so those necessarily will see completion, even if it's failure). I really hope i see the fusion rocket to completion because if i don't think i'll ever be able to see the earth from afar or the moon from up close.

What did you think of RE4 remakes ending song ?

I think that in comparison to OGs Leon incapability to leave the past behind, in the remake it really showcased something 180° different and new.

Also a little side note here about Leon's love for people in his life, i think that most of it comes with a projection where people cannot fathom ever loving anyone else in the future but also because Leon's probably a monogamous guy? Well either way, that argument falls flat because it's not really how monogamic person works. And the remake literally also emphasizes the entire point of moving on and for Leon, i think that's super important in more than one way.

Definitely feels like a new approach to his character

A little fun fact about me is that I'm a massive music nerd. Needless to say, 'The Bullet Or The Blade' had me going insane the first time I heard it, haha. Nothing quite gets me like a good character song, y'know? It's genuinely such a great song for Leon and his journey throughout RE4R, I get a bit emotional whenever it comes on in my playlists! I'd say my favorite verses of it are:

I fought a war and I learned how to win

But how do you fight when the enemy's within?

Find your pride, go deeper inside

For the fire that will light your way

The ones you trust can often betray

You're the hunter and then you're the prey

You pay the cost, it all feels lost

Then you hear a voice inside you say

Keep your eyes on the road ahead

Don't be drawn into the light or the shadows in your head

Keep your eyes on the road ahead

And don't ever look back, don't ever look back

It really just showcases Leon's entire mentality perfectly, and I adore it. You gotta keep moving forward, after all. It's one of his qualities that make him as compelling as he is. The way he continues to fight and move forward, no matter what life throws at him time and time again. Even if he has to do so battered, and hurt, and tired.

And this?

A lot of road now behind me

Every cut, every bruise, they tell their own story

Whatever's up ahead, around the next bend I know I will survive

I've learned how to live with regret

I can't forgive what I couldn't forget

The things I've learned, the strength that I've earned

I have it all by my side, as I ride

What a perfect send-off. His past scars (be it physical or emotional) will always stay with him. But he learns how to live with them. He learns how to move forward and move on from the burden of what he failed to do in Racoon City, in a way that's not as heavy anymore. I think that's beautiful for him.

Also, the instrumental is pretty reflective of that too, starting off with a more somber and melancholic melody and gradually growing into a hopeful and assertive one. Overall a perfect song to end his story with. It's my Roman Empire.

do you know what your most played game is?

on steam it's appearently Team Fortress 2 with 2,460 hours, with Garrys Mod about 10 hours behind.

i don't really play either much these days due to my laptop though. can't say that Team Fortress 2 would be any higher though these days, hours-wise, if that weren't the case.
