Dunno why, but I'm acquiring the "random onomatopoeia" vocal stims..? I've been going "wamp wamp" randomly and also I started just going "beep boop"

MOAR ‘BUNCLES

A discussion of assorted carbuncle shenanigans from earlier this week, featuring @chaemera, @tehjai, and @wanderedaimlessly.

TL;DR: Ivar has a grenade function. As in, he is the grenade. Also he nearly had a beam cannon function and Eorzea should be grateful Synnove vetoed that. (Even though it would be really, really cool. But there’s no way any of her babies would act responsibly with that on tap.)

(MOBILE USERS I APOLOGIZE IF THE READ MORE DOESN’T WORK)

[1:46 PM] Chaemera: I just had a horrible idea [1:48 PM] Chaemera: carbuncle grenades [1:48 PM] DT: what [1:49 PM] Chaemera: consider: carbuncles are organized masses of aether [1:50 PM] DT: Following so far - ooooohhhhh [1:50 PM] Chaemera: it is theoretically possible to insert a directive into that system to cause it to catastrophically liberate all that energy [1:50 PM] Chaemera: picks up Ivar, boops, throws [1:50 PM] Chaemera: EXPLOSION [1:51 PM] DT: Ivar reforms at Synnove's feet all smug. "Look, mommy, I blew them up!" [1:51 PM] Chaemera: meanwhile Synnove is trying to decide on having her face go D8 or :o [1:52 PM] DT: On the one hand science, on the other oh gods my baby [1:52 PM] Chaemera: mostly I'm just giggling over the idea of Khebi panicking in a combat situation, scooping up Ivar all "Sorry! FRAG OUT" [1:53 PM] Chaemera: Synnove: what are you doing to my child [1:54 PM] DT: Ivar carby-cackles as he flies through the air [1:54 PM] Chaemera: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEboom [1:54 PM] Jai: He tries to form up again and gets stuck; someone has to pull him out by his tail [1:55 PM] DT: Synnove: /blue screens Galette: /pokes mommy's cheek [1:55 PM] DT: Literally has to yoink him the rest of the way out of his ruby [1:55 PM] Chaemera: schlllllkkkkkkkkpop [1:56 PM] Jai: When he gets really stuck they have to call Kelt. [1:56 PM] Jai: that is why Ivar inexplicably likes her [1:57 PM] Chaemera: I just made myself snortlaugh at folks trying to diagnose the issue and Kelt popping Ivar's ruby into her mouth to swish it around with a thoughtful expression [1:57 PM] DT: Synnove quietly shrieks [1:58 PM] DT: One time One time they use Tyr [1:58 PM] DT: Him big. Sheepdog big. Very aetherically dense. [1:58 PM] DT: Biiiiig boom. [1:59 PM] DT: Takes five people to tug him out of his topaz [1:59 PM] Chaemera: I think I just gave myself diabetes with a mental image: Khebi curled up and napping against Ivar [2:00 PM] DT: /diiiiiiiiiies [2:01 PM] Chaemera: big fluffy warm purring pillow [2:03 PM] DT: Ivar luvs his favorite people very much [2:03 PM] DT: And will set everyone else on fire :) [2:03 PM] Chaemera: even more sickening: her napping on Tyr [2:04 PM] Chaemera: he's bigger than she is [2:04 PM] Jai: The carbies' real bff: a chicken [2:05 PM] Chaemera: Synnove's kids and their insatiable lust for Keltgeim's cock [2:05 PM] Chaemera: /flee! [2:05 PM] Jai: Either that or they tolerate Heihei and his stupidity [2:05 PM] DT: Ivar is not allowed to be left alone with Heihei [2:06 PM] DT: /throws things at Chaemera [2:06 PM] Chaemera: X3 [2:07 PM] DT: Ivar is capable of cooking his own dinner [2:07 PM] DT: Tyr turns into a loaf all -_- as the chicken climbs all over him [2:07 PM] Chaemera: bok bok bok [2:09 PM] Jai: Chicken is pecking at nothing; carby nudges chicken so that his food is nearby. Chicken turns 45 degrees & goes back to pecking at nothing. [2:09 PM] Jai: This is how we learned that carbies can sigh [2:10 PM] DT: /cackles [2:10 PM] Chaemera: also Khebi is not allowed to tinker with Synnove's carbies [2:12 PM] DT: Synnove does not allow access to her summoning arrays any more. The grenade function in Ivar is useful but traumatizing to watch [2:12 PM] Chaemera: because I just started thinking of things she would think of as "improvements" [2:12 PM] Chaemera: like integrating a "Fetch" module into Tyr where he physically encapsulates the target [2:13 PM] Chaemera: or a beam cannon into Ivar [2:14 PM] Chaemera: (her idea to have Galette fly her around is thwarted by the realization that Galette would more likely just use it to get at treats previously out of reach) [2:17 PM] DT: Synnove immediately vetoes both Fetch and beam canon options because fetch means Tyr will abuse it to get Synnove to stay in bed and cuddle all day, and Ivar will literally try to destroy a city. [2:17 PM] DT: Flying Galette is a nightmare incarnate. No pastry is safe [2:17 PM] Chaemera: Khebi points out this is no different than Tyr just lying on top of Synnove [2:17 PM] Chaemera: also Ivar tries to do that anyway [2:18 PM] DT: Yes but with the beam cannon he would succeed [2:18 PM] DT: And she can push Tyr off herself. [2:23 PM] Chaemera: heeheehee [2:26 PM] Chaemera: though this also brings the hilarious mental image of Tyr in the morning just loafing aggressively on Synnove's face [2:39 PM] DT: And the entire top half of the bed [2:39 PM] DT: A muffled, "Tyr, if I can't breathe I can't cuddle you," can be heard [2:40 PM] Chaemera: he purrs harder [2:47 PM] Chaemera: (it's almost as if I've lived with cats) [3:29 PM] Chaemera: no Khebi stop trying to figure out how to adapt your carbuncle summoning array into a particle cannon [6:16 PM] Jai: i get the feeling that the carbies just have the run of the house [6:16 PM] Jai: they show up in others' rooms [6:16 PM] Chaemera: phase through walls when you try to lock them out [6:17 PM] DT: Galette, Tyr, and Ivar have standing orders to "obey the laws of physics unless it's a life or death emergency, Mommy doesn't like her brain breaking," but they just take that to mean don't do it where Mommy can see. [6:17 PM] DT: Everyone else can suck it the fuck up [6:18 PM] DT: How else do you think Galette gets into the pie [6:18 PM] Chaemera: rule zero: don't get caught [6:21 PM] DT: Look there's a reason that Galette meshed so well with the Garuda-egi, she just channels Garuda's megalomaniac crazy into sugar-crazes and pranks [6:22 PM] Chaemera: no Khebi you are not allowed to test and find out what Gallete's upper confection-bound is [6:23 PM] DT: Synnove would never forgive Khebi for that. Galette once get into the cake at a wedding reception, she didn't stop vibrating for about a week. [6:24 PM] Chaemera: this would be carefully metered doses of maple syrup administered in a laboratory environment! [6:25 PM] Chaemera: just... the doses would keep coming until Galette turned them down [6:25 PM] Chaemera: while Khebi keeps careful track [6:25 PM] DT: Somewhere Synnove's brain has broken at the horror [6:26 PM] Chaemera: Galette ends up launched over Limsa bay as she goes critical [6:27 PM] Jai: i wonder if everyone save Synnove tends to secretly feed Galette sweets [6:28 PM] Chaemera: probably [6:30 PM] DT: probably [6:32 PM] Chaemera: though with Khebi there's also a 50% risk that she'll just distractedly scoop Galette up during treat-begging and carry her around as a thinking-plushy [6:33 PM] Chaemera: "Think, think, think..." <galette muttering about how this was not going as planned> [6:33 PM] Jai: they hide in Kelt's room [6:34 PM] Jai: "hey have you seen the carbies?" "didja check under my couch?" [6:35 PM] DT: Both ideas = me dead from cute [6:35 PM] Chaemera: I just giggle a lot at the thought of Khebi wandering past Synnove with Galette in-arms, wearing that thousand-yalm-stare as she chews through some theoretical problem, and Galette just giving mom the "why, why this" face [6:36 PM] Jai: so Kelt's kicking back reading some book about astrophysics and suddenly there's a noise from under the couch.  she lifts book, there's one carby.  some time later, two.  then finally, Tyr tries to sit on her head. [6:36 PM] Chaemera: <loaf'd> [6:36 PM] Jai: Kelt picks them up by the scruff, stares them in the eyes, and admonishes them [6:37 PM] Jai: "tyr there is a whole other half of the couch.  go there." [6:38 PM] DT: Tyr likes to think he is smol [6:38 PM] Chaemera: like those mastiffs that think they're lapdogs [6:38 PM] DT: And Synnove just raises an eyebrow at Galette to remind her this is what happens when she begs for treats outside snacktime from other arcanists. [6:38 PM] Chaemera: though I just had an adorable idea: Synnove getting scholar's-back from being bent over her desk for too long, having Tyr make biscuits on her spine [6:39 PM] DT: !!!! [6:40 PM] DT: He's, like, the size of a sheepdog, and his aetheric density is translated to weight by his programming, he could make biscuits or just walk up and down Synnove's back and it would work out nicely [6:41 PM] Chaemera: <knead knead knead mildly unsettling crunching noises knead> [6:41 PM] Jai: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/e1/cb/68/e1cb6808b17e67ee8e53921f861a6d85.jpg

[6:43 PM] DT: <loud groan of relief from the pillow Synnove has her face smushed into> [6:43 PM] DT: Yes that is Tyr-size. :D [6:48 PM] Chaemera: Khebi's carbuncle is much less defined in terms of personality compared to Synnove's three, but it also has a lot of under the hood tweaking in place [6:48 PM] Chaemera: and often just blatantly ignores things like "laws of physics" [6:49 PM] Chaemera: it's more of a computational and utility entity than a personality [6:51 PM] DT: Yeah, Synnove prioritizes personality above everything else; utilities like the passive aetheric sensors got added over the years. [6:53 PM] Chaemera: whereas Khebi needed an assistant first, and forgot about "friend" until later because she got distracted [6:55 PM] DT: Also eventually at some point, Synnove goes to Kelt's room first when looking for her wayward children to look under the couch. Doesn't even say anything, just knocks, stomps in, kneels to check, then leaves either with a carby or no carby. Occasionally grunts a hello at Kelt if she remembers. [6:56 PM] Chaemera: it's bath time and Ivar leaves claw-trails in the floor as he gets dragged out of the room [6:57 PM] DT: Ivar: <carby equivalent of wails of denial> Synnove: YOU ARE FILTHY. [6:57 PM] Jai: "I have a bathtub you know." [6:58 PM] Chaemera: the house is treated to the Carby version of "MY LINE IS ENDED" [6:59 PM] DT: "Oh, no, I do this outside if I don't want the house to burn." And then she finally manages to get Ivar's claws out of the wood, throws him over her shoulder, and books it, yelling about stopping by with gil for the repairs later. [7:03 PM] DT: And on some days, Tyr's the one to burst in, stick his head under Kelt's couch, and emerge with a scruffed Ivar before toddling out. [7:06 PM] Chaemera: heeheehee [7:09 PM] DT: If they really do give us a slider or text command to change Demi-Bahamut's size, I demand it affect the carbies/egis, too. I WILL HAVE MY ACCURATELY SIZED TYR DAMNIT [9:28 PM] Starlin': Somehow I imagine starling would let Timeaus and Theodore sleep in her bed [9:28 PM] Starlin': Real night lights ™ [9:29 PM] DT: Synnove has a giant ass bed because the carbies all pile in it for bedtime [9:30 PM] Starlin': Yess [9:34 PM] Chaemera: Tyr is best mattress [9:35 PM] Chaemera: Ivar is for those cold Ishgardian nights [9:35 PM] Starlin': Eos probably naps in hair [9:36 PM] Starlin': Too bad starling keeps hers short [9:36 PM] DT: Galette uses bedtime as an excuse to try to break into the pantry, but Synnve has that shit warded. Then she sulks back to bed and curls up on Mommy's face. [9:38 PM] Jai: Heihei sleeps like he's dead [9:38 PM] Jai: flat on his back [9:38 PM] Jai: legs straight up [9:38 PM] Chaemera: I see Galette as the type to wake you up with her nose a centimeter away from your face, and when you're awake, you get CATBREATH [9:38 PM] DT: Yaaaaaaarp [9:38 PM] Chaemera: <MEW> "AAAAAUGH" [9:38 PM] DT: "THIS IS WHY WE DO NOT SKIP TOOTHBRUSHING TIME, GALETTE." [9:39 PM] Chaemera: "Oh god what did you EAT" [9:39 PM] Jai: ice cream [9:42 PM] DT: Galette makes faces as Synnove holds her under one arm and forcibly brushes her teeth in the morning

a god’s menu hater?! 😾 jk, i understand. it wasn’t something i liked at first too. then it kept popping up as an ad before left and right by svt played (i was streaming it at the time) but i couldn’t bring myself to skip it? then i couldn’t stop singing it. i actually recall streaming both mvs during finals week instead of studying 😅

this is your sign to dive into wayv but ofc take your time. they’ll always be there if you need a good laugh. and i hope i’ll get into cpop someday, feels like i’m missing out on good music. 😕

shotaro really is up there huh? hope sm revives the nct dance channel and give the man a platform to post on. also have you watched shotaro’s relay cam episode?

yep it’s probably because of the sexual connotation : D i wanna go back to the time when ice cream was just ice cream. and ice cream cake gave me diarrhea once 😭 i still love it but i’m always hesitant bc there’s the slim chance i might suffer through that whole thing again.

i, too, abandon my ult groups when i start stanning new ones. but then again, my ults are an active bunch. with chan going live every week and an nct unit coming back every other month, it’s hard to totally get distant 😂 i used to not watch variety shows because my attention span couldn’t handle it 🤣 also ik you mentioned the groups that you stanned before but who are your ults? (but i think it’s listed somewhere on your blog tho i’ll check it out after i send this)

maybe they don’t read because these are lengthyyyyyy but if they do then 😃🤚🏼AAAAAAA i look forward to these exchanges too úwù

ah yes. those three bring in a lot of fans 🤣 maybe thats why sm put them in the first unit that promoted for nct 2020. strategy worked tho, felt the fandom grow bigger. shotaro edits devastate me whenever they pop up on the tl but i don’t see them often. and come to think of it, i have never seen a soft johnny edit.

spicy genres 😭 i am definitely NOT worthy of that title. but if there’s a specific type of nct fic that you would want to read, i might be able to give you recommendations. oh why would you want to wipe them ☹️☹️ save a copy somewhere at least, you might regret completely erasing them.

and SEUNGMIN. the biggest threat to my loyalty to bang chan. that man just devastates me every. single. time. something about him just makes me go all soft 😔 i had a whole rollercoaster seungmin phase last december bc i subscribed to his bubble and he was active as hell EXCEPT on christmas week. and i got sad bc he didn’t send a greeting..? care to share how it became seungmin for you?

also i have a finished seungmin drabble jailed in my docs based on this devastating gif. want me to tag you when i drop it? 🤣

also yes that show 😭 i watched that bc i missed dream a lot but i haven’t got around to finishing it. i hope you’re enjoying it tho! they truly are a hilarious bunch. i saw a twt abt them though. that dream is a group of 20-year olds with 35 years of experience 🤣 they aren’t 4th gen but their ages make it seem like they are.

ah repetition both made us fall for gods menu and its glory. i still cant believe it didnt get one single win :( i personally preferred gods menu over back door but at least back door's music wins gave its sibling some justice. ugh same, i tend to stream mvs while studying but i usually end up watching the mv and the people in it instead haha.

also yes! get into cpop. i personally don't find their '4th gen' music (basically the new generation of kpop knockoffs) good because of its horrendous english grammar, but their music isn't mind blowing or anything anyways. i would recommend some ballads though, chinese ballads will remain superior forever.shotaro supremacy! i fell for him before i even started stanning nct, that says so much. and yes, ive watched his relay cam and fan cams multiple times, way before i stanned too haha. hes honestly so likeable.

lmao are you lactose intolerant? /g ice cream doesnt do much to me besides make me feel bloated. nowadays i prefer smoothies over it.

speaking of nct units coming back and skz, hot sauce just happened but we already have a 127 drop. i didnt think id see hyuck and mork in there D': give them a break sm. once again, title track isnt my taste at all, but maybe ill grow to like it after a few listens. ive surprisingly become a fan of hot sauce though. the hook and jaemins intro are super addicitng. 

stray kids world domination too! i didnt watch kingdom because im not available during the airing time but i streamed and looked at their performances and i have to say, no personal bias or anything, skz deserved that win :3 its all in good fun though, atz and tbz caught my eye and i might try getting into them in the near future hehe.

my ults are izone, skz, txt and enha! (i think you probably saw them already haha). my bias ults are jake and wonyoung. to be honest, with the amount of dream content im consuming daily, i think they might become one of my ults soon. argh i really want to write for them though.

no no your fics look so unique and spicy grrr. im really excited to read them! theyre different from typical fanfiction and im a sucker for that. hmm for recommendations, honestly anything sfw and fluffy is fine, i tend to love writing angst but im a sucker for reading fluff. ive been binging on lvdsc's works actually, so amazing argh. as for my works, ill probably private them...or move blogs? im still thinking about it.

skz bubbles! ah theyre always so fun on the app, did seungmin say anything interesting? as for how he became my bias, the memory's hazy but i think it was because i was looking at those september celebration videos (for han, seungmin and lix all together (?)) and just kind of fell for his gahs and his vlives. seungmin vlives are always so fun and relaxing, i like to do homework to them. especially that one vlive where he sang for 4 hours, that just made me fall in love with him more.

based on that gif, im assuming that the drabble is about nose booping? which i absolutely LOVE! YES! in fact, tag me in anything seungmin. anything. literally anything. that boy is my secret ult lmao.
