Can you also do a oneshot where B!D is the one kidnapped in season 2 instead of Alex and she almost dies because of her asthma?

Authors note: I changed the scenery a bit and wrote a different storyline because I think it would be totally weird to write the exact same episode in season two with Baby Danvers instead of Alex in it. Hope that's okay!

ᕚ---ᕘ

Kara and Alex were on their way to your apartment, where you had planned a peaceful family dinner, when suddenly their cell phones lit up and beeped wildly in a monotonous tone. The message the two received from an anonymous sender was short and clear, but still very disturbing and frightening. "Your sister is in danger. Come to the old warehouse at the harbor alone if you want her back alive. If you take the Martian with you, she will die."

"Call her immediately!" said the redhead in a panic as she tried to trace the sender using a cell phone tracking device installed on her phone. But both the call and the pursuit went nowhere and, full of concern, the two sisters followed the instructions with a desperate expression.

Shortly afterwards the two found themselves in front of an abandoned warehouse. The surroundings were silent and frightening, only the gentle sound of the sea against the harbor wall accompanied their quick steps before they stopped opposite a shadow that only slowly approached them. "Who the hell are you and where is our sister?"

"Kara, Alex. It's nice that you came," spoke a cool voice before the shadow grew into a male figure. Despite the passing years of her high school days, Alex instantly realized that it was Rick Malverne who had been ruthlessly targeting Supergirl's family and identity for some time.

“What did you do to y/n?!” Kara shouted angrily, her eyes glowing red with anger. Malverne smiled and finally stepped into the light, where the two women's eyes met his ice-cold one. He pulled a small device out of his pocket and played around with it before throwing it to the redhead. The two of them were able to see a black and white shot of you on the small camera.

"Your sweet little sister. She will be useful for the success of my plans," he grinned devilishly and the two siblings took another look at the device in their hands. You were trembling uncontrollably in fear and with a look of panic on your face, you tried desperately to fight against the amount of cold water that was increasing slowly in the watertank you were trapped in. "And if you don't cooperate, she'll soon run out of air."

The tension in the warehouse reached its peak when Malverne stood triumphantly. His cold eyes fixed on the two siblings who were forced to be in his power. The two siblings looked at each other briefly, their minds quick as lightning as they considered how they could save you from this life-threatening situation before deciding to play his game. After all, it was your life that was now in the hands of a madman. "What do you want from us?" the redhead asked through gritted teeth, her anger running unbearably through every fiber of her body.

"Very wise of you, Danvers. You're going to help me get my father out of jail. If you don't get him out within the next six hours-" he threatened with a malicious grin and flipped a small switch in his other hand that displayed a timer on the camera. "She dies within a very short time. You have no choice."

Kara clenched her fists, her knuckles already losing blood and turning white, but she knew she had to proceed carefully. "Hop, hop, Supergirl. You don't have much time left." the blonde nodded hesitantly and he disappeared back into the darkness. The two siblings were tense as they were forced to cooperate with the enemy to save you. But in the hearts of both women they swore that Malverne's sinister plans would not go unanswered and that they would receive punishment.

While Kara and Alex reluctantly took every opportunity to hatch a plan, they tried to mislead him with a clever but stressful situation. While J'onn posed as Supergirl, Kara activated her superpowers and attacked him from behind.

When both Alex and J'onn as Supergirl took advantage of his attention and negotiated with him, the blonde took advantage of the moment of surprise. She shot forward and grabbed him in a lightning-quick movement, throwing him against the wall. Alex immediately followed her, her hands gripping his neck in a tight grip. He could only watch helplessly as his plans collapsed.

"You didn't think we'd give up so easily, did you?" Alex spoke in a threatening tone while Kara fixed him with an icy stare. They left him in the hands of the Martian who took him to the DEO and they rushed to the water tank where you were trapped and still fighting for your life. The water level rose threateningly and you were already gasping for air to the last millimeter. “Y/n, hold on!”

With her strength and speed, the blonde threw herself at the tempered safety glass until it began to shatter and you flowed out of the tank with the flood of water. The relief was palpable, but the joy of your safety was short-lived and the hardships took their toll.

Exhausted and panting in panic, you collapsed in her arms with a choking gasp, gasping for air as your siblings exchanged frightened looks. "She's having an asthma attack!" The redhead whispered, her expression serious as she realized that neither you nor any of them had an inhaler with them. "She needs to go to the hospital. There's no time to waste!"

The blonde nodded in agreement and the blonde gently lifted you into her arms. Alex also clung to Kara before she flew into the air. The night air was cool as she flew with you over the city, reaching the hospital at breathtaking speed. Doctors immediately rushed over to take care of you while Kara and Alex waited anxiously, hoping that you would regain your strength soon.

Kristen Arknights is giving me brainworms this cannot continue

Before Lone Trail, I was really convinced that "ah yeah so she's really evil", like what, she approved and conducted the Diabolic Experiment? She approved the experiment at Site #359 and was probably looking at the giant Hub from her window, presumably while eating popcorns, and when Saria arrived to scream at her "WHAT THE FUCK" Kristen just replied "Oh hey I knew you would solve it"? She also funded Loken's Watertank and collected his data on children experiments after he got arrested??

Any sane person would be calling her an egoist, a betrayer, a seeker, a loner

And yet, she was a pioneer.

Lone Trail dropped and now, I don't even know what to think anymore of this character. Like I don't approve what she has done, but also, I don't hate her. She put me into a state of mind I can't think straight anymore. This dog is TRULY fucked up.

She was obsessed, truly obsessed by her dream. She wanted to achieve what her parents had failed to do. She wanted to honor her family, to prove something to the world. To find the truth. To break the sky.

And she fucking did it. She absolutely did. She achieved it, she had done what nobody has ever done before. Regardless of the methods, regardless of morals and ethics, what she did was HUGE. That night, everyone on Terra looked up at the sky. She made a huge step forward, she revolutioned and changed things. The moment she pierced the starpod, a page in the history of the world had been turned, a new era has started. This event was major. And countless scientists will look up upon her, and for ages, her name will be praised.

And she did at what cost? Everything. Her own life, her friends.

I can't stop thinking about how much she tried to keep Saria away from her. I thought that Kristen was using Saria, that she didn't care about her, but actually it's... Something else. She does care about Saria, but it's Saria who was completely obsessed with Kristen. It's Saria who refused to let go. Of course, Saria devoted her life to protect Kristen, she wanted to stay with her until the very end. Kristen did not wanted it, she wanted Saria to continue to live on. It's her dream, and she's ready to die to achieve it. Not Saria's. Nor Muelsyse's.

I can't stop thinking about how she tried EVERYTHING to stop Saria. She studied her Arts, found ways to supress them, created Power Armors to neutralize them, she showed coldness to Saria to keep her away. But god, Saria was clingy as hell. If Kristen had to get to install a trap door in her spaceship SPECIFICALLY for Saria, that's to say how much Saria did not want to let go.

Saria was ready to die for Kristen, she was ready to stay with her until the very end. But Kristen always had in mind to go alone.

And in the end, she had to show Saria that she deserves to live, to continue, that there's still people who need her. Rhine Lab needs her. Ifrit needs her. Silence needs her. Rhodes Island needs her. She can't join Kristen like that. She can't die yet.

Even if Kristen was obsessed by her dream, she was still able to care enough for Saria and the people around her.

And god fucking damn I'm crying

Kristen is absolutely the best antagonist of all Arknights there's absolutely no way we can't do better, I'm standing on my ground

I’m super mega not interested in discoursing about this so if you disagree please just scroll but. I suppose people being confused about Rosmontis’ role in Lone Trail is sort of expected given that she is like. Only referenced but she is and has been a Rhine Lab kid from the beginning. I can’t remember if Rhine is mentioned explicitly in her files but I think it’s at least referenced that Loken Watertank was funded by RL, and then of course she does pop up briefly in Dorothy’s Vision, so I for one really enjoyed getting some much needed closure on her story. Besides which. The entire plot of Dorothy’s Vision was predicated on the Rosmontis experiment. So.

As for the argument that it took the place of Ifrit’s character development. I mean sure I would always be down for more Ifrit Screen Time because she is daughter. But to be honest she’s kind of already had that character development I think people wanted off-screen. I see a lot of “well I shouldn’t have to read the manhua to know what’s going on in the story” and that’s fair (even if the manhua is free and is better than like 90% of the VN but whatever) but just going off her module and her oprec it’s clear that she’s growing up fast and developing a strong sense of responsibility. I think she’s forgiven Saria and Silence and she’s too laid back to care about much more, and that in and of itself was a delight to see in Lone Trail. We just happen to be catching the tail end of her character development and I for one felt just as much a proud mama bird as Silence. She got plenty of screen time it just wasn’t…her growing up I guess? But we already have quite a lot of that even without the manhua.

Literally my only Ifrit Complaint was that she didn’t get a confrontation with Parvis, or show any sort of emotional reaction to him being there whatsoever which was. Out of character for sure, thinking about her module. But that was about it, and I still enjoyed the wrap-up with Parvis and Silence. Ifrit is one of my favorite characters and LT got my stamp of approval so do with that what you will.

ི 𝄞 ྀ ⋆･. ˳ . @climatact quest sent semi-planned:

ᯓ .𖥔˚ It was strange, nothing like he had ever seen before. the merboy tilted his head as he stared at the navigator from where he swam behind her in his individual watertank. he didn't want to seem weird by staring. so each time she'd turn around, he'd quickly look away. but then soon his eyes would once again find their way to the strange device on her wrist.

his head tilting in order to get a better look at it. not to mention, she as a person was just as curious. he's never met anyone like her. he's still a bit shy to the crew, after all they were only bringing him home. but he's been, well silently observing them all from afar long enough to see their many personalities.

[midi8]

I don’t think I’m homeless. First I don’t smell, cause I take showers time after time. Second, I have my very comfy mattress in my van so technically it’s a shelter on wheels and safe place to sleep. Third, I am slowly fixing this boat so it can be a home too. Not at the moment though. And that’s my second one! First one was better, but smaller and smaller watertank. Good for weekend sail though. I came on her from SF to LA and stayed onboard for more than a year. This one is big enough for circumnavigation. And last but not least - my home is where my headphones are. I promise to upload sometimes to the cloud. But no, I’d rather not do it. It’s not like “oh look I’ve made a new track!” any more. It’s more: wow, look, here is dozen track from 2014 I almost forgot about. Let’s mix them with freshly made ones in a mix, why not. Overdub Radio. Let’s see who discovers us. May be they’re still teenagers. Listen, teenagers.

And yeah, it’s hard to make new tracks when some basic needs from Maslow pyramid are open issues. I’d put it not as “privilege” as some Berliners say, but certain coefficient of social development. Peace, economically unstressful and politically pretty much involved, socialized and supported by the population - that’s what it does mean. Music. Totally inappropriate during war time. Then yes, it’s a privilege to live in peace, yes.

“  who  did  this  to  you  ?  ” || from @visceratorn

Send “ who did this to you ? ” for the sender to find the receiver injured and demand to know who did it.

The others question made Ziv think about the pirates that had only hours ago raided the hangar, held her down a second after she had locked the biodome. The others question made Ziv think about sitting here in the hangar on the overthrown cargoboxes with half her watertanks gone and azure sunlight dying the cuts in her flesh, that she was carefully cleaning and bandaging, into a soft lavender.

The others question made Ziv think about the sudden unease she had felt when the visitor had approached her, not a fear, not a unreasonable disgust for the other, nothing like this she could not ignore to support someone who was curious for botanical knowledge and who was willing to learn. But a instinctive reaction like from a mouse seeing a cat for the first time, not recognizing its danger or nature, but recognizing that the sharp claws could be cutting flesh and the frontal-looking eyes were made for hunting. The others question made Ziv think that despite all this, she really did not wanted to have the bandites met the visitor for their own safety. The others question made Ziv think about all this and more, as she put the syringe with liquid painkillers against the bloody edge of the scatterd fur and flesh on her cheek and without any hestiation pushed the needle in her own flesh and injected the painkillers. She hissed over the sharp pain of the needle in her face, but only a few seconds later a numb feeling started to slowly spread over her face as if drops of icy water were dripping on her face and muzzle, numbing her facial muscles. Opening and closing her jaws to make sure she could still properly talk, the Tynnan said eventually from between razorsharp teeth: "Noone I couldn´t take kriffing care of myself, cub." It was a lie of course- if she would be able to take care of the pirates herself, she wouldn´t sit here in the hangar with bloodd yeing her colourless pelt red and a face that felt numb, almost like a piece of flesh placed dead on her long neck. Yet Ziv ahd worked long enough as a botanist to know that the only reason she was hired for terraforming and reconstruction of by natural disasters destroyed communitys with botany, was because it was thought that she was able to do all this work on her own without any helpand the Tynnan liked her work and had till now managed to do that work on her own evetually. She put the syringe down beside her on the cargobox and started to carefully and almost scientifically move her legs and arms to test how she could move without causing herself more pain. Slowly she slided off the Cargoboxes, grimacing on the burning sensations in her injuries.

"However, you can do me the favour and pluck some stuff for me, because I happen to be a kriffing short person and for now my arms do not want to go past my kriffing head," she lifted her short arms and hissed when her left side with the newly put in shoulder sended a pain like a sharp blade down her torso to her hindpaws. Hasty she let her arms sink down again: "- so yeh, if you want to help, pluck me the plants I show you. You are here for the plants in the biodome anyway, yeh? So why not start your first kriffing lesson with some kriffing healingherbs for your poor kriffed up teacher who moans the kriffing fact that she had kriffing bones that can be broken and flesh that can be kriffing bruised. You know, I wouldn´t have had anything against beeing born as a kriffing octopus, without any bones that can be broken, but no, kriffing no, I was born as a kriffing mammal with bones and flesh and I am suffering because of that since I was pushed out of my kriffing dam. Well, whatever, I eat octopus as part of my kriffing normal speciesspecific diet and also a kriffing revenge, so who is the winner here now, eh?" the young woman laughed and promptly regretted it because it hurted in her chest and made her left shoulder sting. A little less enthusiastic than her spech from before the Tynnan hobbled forward to the metaldoor connecting the hangar with the actual biodome to put in the password- the pirates had taken away one of her harvest machines and half of her watertanks, but the had had no interest at what was growing inside the biodome. It had been a mistake, the species growing inside the dome were samples of seldom plants that were not only millions of years old, but that could survive in the most extreme enviorments, making them useable for every community across the Galaxy and therefor also easily sellable to most communitys across the Galaxy and as precious as diamonds.

The airlock opned and a scent of pretrichor washed into the hangar like a wave. Ziv waved the newcomer to her side and walked inside- the biodome had a glassdome as its roof and in the late evening the last beams of azureblue sunlight from the far away, hot burning sun fell into the forest beneath. In the azure sunlight the young trees growing not higher than Cayne yet, grew past beds of high grass that swayed a little in a warm breeze coming from the airfilters like algea in a tropical ocean. There were no roads between the different beds, but there were paths of bare soil barely as wide as a hand on which Ziv usually walked. " So ears turned up and come along, cub.", the Tynnan said and balanced on the thin beaten paths past hydroponic beds in which fish were colourfully swimming beneath put high pots of crops whichs long roots reached into the ponds; and past the different beds of flowers and grass towards the middle of the dome where a big tree was reaching with long, thin branchs towards one side of the dome to form a nestled roof of branches from which hung silver fruits. The sunlight was not able to pierce through this formed roof of intervined branches, so the silver huecoming from the fruits was not reflecting sunlight but came from the fruits themself that looked like pieces of glassshards.Ziv wantd to rise a arm but noticed a second too late that she could not rise her arms above her head and instead she only winced and nodded her head towards the fruits: "One of those. Their juice is antiseptic. Get me one down here and I show you how to cut and prepare it into medicine, yeh?"

Affordable 1000-Liter Water Tanks in South India: A Buyer’s Guide

Water storage is a necessity in South India, where climate conditions and water supply can fluctuate throughout the year. A 1000-liter water tank is an ideal solution for small to medium-sized households. However, finding an affordable yet durable tank that suits your needs can be a challenge. This buyer’s guide will help you understand the key factors to consider when choosing an affordable 1000-liter water tank in South India, without compromising on quality.

1. Understanding the Types of Water Tanks

Before diving into prices, it’s important to understand the types of materials used for water tanks and their respective pros and cons. Each material comes with different price points and levels of durability.

Plastic (Polyethylene) Tanks:

These are the most commonly used tanks in South India due to their affordability.

Price Range: ₹3,000 to ₹6,000

Lightweight and easy to install, they are resistant to rust and corrosion, making them a good option for moderate climates. However, they may degrade in intense heat without UV protection.

Concrete Tanks:

Concrete tanks are long-lasting and durable, particularly suitable for underground storage.

Price Range: ₹10,000 to ₹15,000 (including installation)

While they are pricier and harder to install, they offer excellent protection against heat and external damage.

Stainless Steel Tanks:

Known for their rust-resistance and durability, stainless steel tanks are ideal for regions with extreme weather conditions or near coastal areas.

Price Range: ₹8,000 to ₹15,000

Though more expensive, they last longer than plastic and require less maintenance.

For affordable solutions, plastic tanks are typically the go-to option in South India.

2. Top Affordable Brands in South India

Several trusted brands in South India offer affordable and high-quality 1000-liter water tanks. Here are some of the top brands to consider:

Sintex: A household name in water storage, Sintex offers durable plastic tanks with UV protection. Their 1000-liter tanks are available from ₹4,500 to ₹6,000, depending on the model and features.

Plasto: Known for their cost-effective plastic tanks, Plasto provides 1000-liter tanks at prices ranging from ₹3,500 to ₹5,500. They also have tanks with multi-layered protection for durability.

Vectus: Another popular brand, Vectus offers affordable tanks that are UV-stabilized to withstand extreme heat. Their tanks range from ₹4,000 to ₹6,000 for a 1000-liter capacity.

Supreme: Offering durable, multi-layer plastic tanks, Supreme’s tanks are competitively priced between ₹3,800 and ₹5,800. Their models are known for strength and longevity.

Ashirvad: Specializing in lightweight, easy-to-install tanks, Ashirvad offers 1000-liter tanks starting from ₹3,000 to ₹4,800.

Agarwal watertank: More About Agarwal Water Tanks

As one of the South India’s leading water storage tank manufacturer, we’re confident that we have the right tank for your industry or application. We have a full range of 3–5 Layers Water Tank in different range of sizes from 300 to 5000 Liters in Breath-taking Colors White, Blue, Gray, Yellow and more.

3. What to Look For in an Affordable Water Tank

When choosing a 1000-liter tank on a budget, here are a few important factors to consider to ensure that you are still getting a high-quality product:

UV Stabilization: In South India’s hot climate, UV rays can degrade plastic tanks over time, causing cracks and algae growth. Look for tanks that have UV stabilization or protection layers to ensure a longer lifespan.

Opaque Design: Tanks that are opaque or have dark colors prevent sunlight from entering, reducing the risk of algae growth in your water.

Multi-Layer Construction: Some affordable tanks come with multi-layer protection (2-layer or 3-layer), which makes them more durable and helps maintain water temperature by providing better insulation.

Warranty: Always check if the tank comes with a warranty, as this ensures that the manufacturer is confident in their product’s durability.

4. Where to Buy Affordable 1000-Liter Water Tanks in South India

Water tanks are available through a variety of sources, both online and offline. Here’s a breakdown of where to find affordable tanks:

Local Retailers: Many local hardware or construction stores across South India stock a wide range of water tanks from different brands. Visiting a physical store allows you to inspect the tanks before purchasing, and you may even negotiate better prices. Retailers in cities like Chennai, Bangalore, and Hyderabad often stock Sintex, Plasto, and Supreme tanks.

Online Marketplaces: E-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Flipkart, and specialized websites like IndiaMart offer a wide selection of water tanks at competitive prices. Online shopping provides the convenience of home delivery, though it’s important to ensure that the product comes with a proper warranty and installation options.

Direct from Manufacturers: Many manufacturers, especially local ones, offer direct-to-consumer sales, which can be cheaper since there are no middlemen. Contacting companies like Sintex or Plasto directly may also offer bulk discounts.

5. Installation Costs

While water tanks themselves are affordable, installation costs can vary depending on the location and method of installation. Plastic tanks are typically easier and cheaper to install, particularly if placed on rooftops or ground level. Installation costs can range from ₹1,000 to ₹3,000, depending on your location and the complexity of the installation. Be sure to factor this into your overall budget.

For concrete tanks, installation involves more labor and costs due to excavation and setup requirements, and could cost up to ₹5,000.

6. Maintenance Tips for Longevity

Regular maintenance ensures that your 1000-liter water tank will last for many years, even if you opt for a budget-friendly model. Here are a few tips:

Clean the Tank Regularly: Periodic cleaning helps prevent sediment buildup and keeps your water safe.

Inspect for Cracks: Especially in plastic tanks, inspect the tank for cracks that could lead to leaks.

Check the Pipes and Fittings: Ensure that the plumbing attached to your water tank is in good condition to avoid water loss.

Use Tank Covers: A proper cover will prevent debris, dust, and insects from entering your tank, thus maintaining the water quality.

7. Long-Term Benefits of Choosing the Right Tank

While it’s tempting to go for the cheapest option available, investing in a quality water tank with essential features like UV protection, multi-layer construction, and a strong warranty can save you money in the long run. A durable tank will reduce the need for frequent repairs and replacements, ensuring a hassle-free water storage solution for years.

Conclusion

Finding an affordable 1000-liter water tank in South India is easy if you know what to look for. Stick with trusted brands like Sintex, Plasto, and Supreme, and choose tanks with essential features like UV stabilization and opaque designs. Whether you’re buying from a local retailer or online, ensure the tank fits your specific needs in terms of material, durability, and budget. With the right tank, you can ensure a reliable and cost-effective water supply for your home.

Fucked up creatures >:)))

Out of lore, i made her because i wanted to mess around with balancing gameplay mechanics to make the game still seem fair (in theory)

In Lore, She was created by a slowly malfunctioning, egoistical iterator - Two Minutes of Stars. She was (not desperately) but in need of new water supplies, so The Waterbringer was meant to go into another iterators superstructure (I think of it as Moon but idk honestly) and destroy watertanks (made up stuff yay). In game she would have the choice to actually visit Moon and talk to her, which would change the ending, making Waterbringer rebel against TMoS because why would we want to hurt Moon, theres still plenty of water >:/. Lanky (Waterbringer nickname :p) would learn some rune meanings and with Akwenberries (Made up stuff again) she would paint 'Knowledge + Aggression' over the stars on her body. There she could probably go ascend or go destroy TMoS's tanks or something like that, i havent thought that far

Gameplay wise, Lanky has some changes (with similiarities to SM that i think are a bit too close but i still like them). She feeds through Photosynthesis- all over the world are now more puddles and mentioned earlier Akwenberries (She can also feed off of neuron flies because m o i s t). She just sucks up water, y'know. Idk how many food pips (or water pips in this case) she would have, but it'd be a higher number and consumption would be a bit slower than usual so its not so easy to feed up. Waterbringer cannot pick up stuff due to their spiky legs. To make up for spears, she uses her tail or limbs in short-range combat, and to make up for rocks, at the cost of one food pip she can spit waterballs that act like them (with a slightly longer stun time to have a chance to stab and evade being eaten). She can climb poles, dont ask why idk maybe she just pierces them but its a very needed mechanic so :p. Last notable change about gameplay is that she's, well, tall. I imagine TMoS area would have quite a lot of short wormgrass, so Lanky's been made tall = immune to it. All the grass that can reach her main body still can pull her in though. She'd probably have spearmaster spawns due to similiarities and i'd imagine Pebbles would be blocked off because of the whole communication stuff maybe??

Im not really the master of canon rainworld lore so theres probably lots of loopholes here but i like thinking this way so 😝😝😝

Im so glad you asked me this, i love yapping about ocs so thank you ♥️

Have some art of her and im sorry that this is so long

Some of them are slimy, some are very fluffy, its the Slugcats!!!

I couldnt sleep so i drew the goobers + two ocs of mine 😋😋

[Ignore how there's no close ups of Saint and Gourm, they turned out badly okay] [Also i totally dont play favourites wdym]

[littlespoonevan]

me: *is having the typical mid-twenties life crisis about how everyone’s life seems to be moving forward except mine even though we’re in a pandemic so everyone’s pretty stuck right now anyway but that doesn’t make my life feel any less stagnant*

also me: maybe if u buy some clothes things will be ok again

[ultrakatua]

Tbh I like how these sidequests are basically just... The team taking responsibility for what they've done. In most games you'd freed them and that's it. Here they took the watertank quest from Xenoblade 2 or the Love source from Torna, and made all quests like these. Some NPCs aren't ok with their freedom. Some will never forgive you. Some are still killing each others...

But you can try and make their life easier, have them meet each other, grow food not to starve and find a new meaning to their life. And you build a community, so the different colonies end up working with each other, share their tech, etc.

Also at some point I joked to a friend that it would be neat to see some NPCs in their 10th period actually die before the end of the game and I can't believe they ACTUALLY DID THAT? Sorry but that's not ok??? This is me panicking because I cannot find Fili in colony 30 anymore aaaahhhh

Hotel cecil mystery

Hi! I just finished watching the show called Hotel Cecil. But i'm still confused about what happened to Elisa Lam, but the way they explained the story seemed weird to me. I understand the camera may have had a glitch in the system but why wouldn't the police look at the watertanks?

[aviatrix-ash]

Yah, not dead. I'm 1000% fine. I appreciate the concerns tho, but I have certainly done much worse for funsies😆 + my immune system's built like a tank after living on the ships & working a wallyworld pharmacy since 'rona started and all up until recent months.

Also was just reminded I have the Kabaya Fortress Maximus kit in boxes I've been meaning to put together.

They still have the gum in the boxes. Idk how old it is without looking it up, but I'm lowkey tempted. For science. >w>

[1shookyy]

My Theories

I have tried to think ab how Elisa Lam died and i came up with two theorys Her meds that she took some time before she died could have made her hallucinate that she was talking to someone but its still weird of how she could have opend the lid of the watertank bc they are pretty hevy. And my second therory is that someone was following her this may explain why she was scared or why se was acting weird. So this person might have caught up and taken her to the roof and let her die in the tank. But the thing is that if her “roommates” didin’t complain ab her acting weird she would sitt be alive

Jake and Mac having a father and son day

- Amy’s invited to a very special spa treat day at the end of her second pregnancy by Kylie, who is a damn good friend. And Jake is so excited for her that she’ll have a good time, but he’s even more excited that it happens on his day off so he gets to have baby Mac all to himself for one last time before he gets to have TWO babies all for himself sometimes soon!

- he’s got the whole day planned out, Santiago-style with a list, partially to help him keep track of what he wants to do, but mainly to calm Amy down who is for some reason insanely worried that he can’t handle a day alone with the child he’s been co-parenting for two years now (the pregnancy hormones in her are strong)

- the plans are: sleeping in as long as Mac lets him, then have a cuddle round with Mac while watching Mama get ready for her day out and maybe helping her a little what with the giant belly and no bending over and such. Pancakes for breakfast (Mac can have a little one now too, which is like, the best baby development so far apart from the walking)

- then it’s off to the aquarium because Mac is absolutely obsessed with the shiny glass and the watertanks full of fish and there’s this insanely cool part where you can walk through a tunnel under the water and last time Mac genuinely acted as if they’d landed on a different planet there.

- Amy made him schedule in nap times and breaks and extra snackbreaks, too, even though he was definitely planning to do those anyway he just never wrote them down because they’ve become second nature by now

- (for every Mac snackbreak Jake also gets a snackbreak, so obviously he keeps track of those)

- he’s got the smaller city stroller all packed and ready (the big one is already waiting for bèbé 2), but Mac insists he wants to walk, so they’re about... an hour late to the aquarium. Then Mac runs off and Jake panic-searches him for 30 minutes until he finds him in front of the constantly churning jelly fish tank like he’s hypnotised. Then they get in trouble because apparently you’re not supposed to eat, even snacks, in the exhibition rooms? What a stupid rule, there are like 80% kids here, they will ALL need to eat at some point.

- anyway, they regroup in the designated picknick area outside the aquarium and Mac keeps chatting about the kids corner in the library Amy took him to last week, so, alright, change of plans, let’s go there instead of the park like planned. Jake discovers there’s beanbags in the kids area! Amy never told him about that! So they spent about 2 hours reading and snuggling in the beanbags (while two absolutely smitten librarians keep walking by ‘shelving’ things) until Mac conks out and finally accepts the stroller because he’s dead asleep.

- He wakes up while Jake has him ‘parked’ in the bodega picking up surprise treats for Amy tonight, her favourite ice cream and other pregnancy cravings she still has, and manages to unlock the strap of the stroller and climbs out and eats about 50 too many sweets from the display before the cashier and Jake catch him.

- he still gobbles down dinner like nothing happened when they get home. Jake looks around the kitchen, which has fallen a bit to the wayside (as has everything else in the apartment since Amy can’t move around too much anymore and they’ve been a bit more busy with baby/birth prep than cleaning) and he looks at Mac and goes “You know what would make Mama even happier than special treats? Cleanup!”

- so Jake puts on some good music (Taylor Swift *cough *) and Mac watches and ‘sings’ along from his highchair while Jake cleans up the kitchen as good as he remembers from Amy’s routine, which is actually pretty decent. They move on to the bathroom where Mac plays in the empty tub while Jake cleans, the bedroom where he bounces and then naps on the big bed, and when Amy gets home they’re having a full-on dance party with dusters and Mac’s little kiddie broom in the living room.

- (Which she’s quickly pulled into once they greet her so all three - no, four! - of them are jiggling their butts to Shake It Off)

- Amy is very, very happy about the surprisingly well-cleaned place, and the treats, and a tired Mac who doesn’t protest bedtime at all so she can snuggle up to her husband on the couch and get some foot rubs while telling him about the amazing pregnancy-massage they offered at the spa (”but nothing beats my foot rubs, right?” “Nothing in the world, babe.”)

- later Amy realises she hasn’t checked her phone the whole day because it was in a locker in the spa, and notices that Jake has still sent her updates from time to time. Especially the constant pictures: Mac covering his tiny pancake in sirup, Mac at the touch tank of the aquarium (let’s pretend like he didn’t try drinking the water a second after the picture was taking), Mac snoozing in a library beanbag with the Tales Of Beedle The Bard on his lap, Mac in the bodega with his mouth covered in coloured sugar like she remembers from his dad years ago, actually.

- “Just how much sugar did Mac eat today?” “It was a special day! You got ice cream as well!” “That doesn’t count, I’m eating ice cream for two...!” “Well Mac has been eating for about... uh... four today” “Jake!”

Underwater Dance ~ Mer! Optimus x Human! Reader

Plot: Y/N is a good friend of Optimus who is a Merformer. The leader invited her for a surprise. Underwater dance.

Note: the art goes to YoukaiYume!

-------------------------------------

Y/N was sitting at the edge of the bridge with her feet underwater. She just came to relax after a lot of work. She was stressed. She also had an big secret. She was good friends with an actual Merformer leader named Optimus Prime. She rescued him from the experiments. She worked once there as a cleaner and there she met Optimus in a watertank. He was captured by the fishers and they brought him to the laboratory. Then the fishers and scientists made a deal that they'll give the fishers almost 1 million of dollars if they find something useful about the leader.

Y/N heard the conversation that many tests will be painful. Some might even kill him. Y/N was shocked, scared and felt sorry for the Merformer leader that she befriended him and warned him about the tests. She then surprised the leader when she told him that she'll free him tonight. The leader wasn't sure if she kept her promise, but she actually did.

Y/N quite her job the next day and found another job where it was good and it was actually at the beach! Y/N started to meet Optimus more often and she eventually met his team. All of them were awesome!

Y/N was now at the beach since she had an day off. She wasn't only here to relax. Optimus invited her for a surprise. She wondered what it was since he was a Merformer.

Optimus then suddenly came above water infront of Y/N and smiled. "Hello, Y/N."

Y/N smiled. "Hi, Oppie."

Optimus chuckled at the nickname. She started calling him that when they became good friends. He didn't mind. In fact, he finds it cute.

"Do you have stuff to breath underwater?"

"Yeah."

Y/N was confused why she had to bring stuff for underwater. Optimus said that it was needed or else there wouldn't be surprise. Y/N didn't asked any further and did as told when she came to the beach.

"Good. Put it on, please."

Y/N did as told and put swimming goggles or else she couldn't see underwater. Even though when it was day, you can't see things underwater without water goggles. Once she was fully complete, she jumped in the water. Optimus then gently took Y/N's hand in his large one and went underwayer with her. Y/N couldn't help but blush. The leader was just so kind and respectful.

Y/N was confused when Optimus still continued to lead. That's when they were at a beautiful place in underwater that Y/N ever saw.

Optimus stopped close on the sand, but he made sure that he wasn't touching it along with Y/N. The cute, beautiful and safe see creatures swam around while the plants were colorful.

"Do you like this place?" Optimus asked with a smile.

Y/N nodded with a smile.

Optimus then wrapped his big arms around her small waist and started to dance with her. Y/N blushed bright red. Her chest and body was touching mostly his build chest and abit his stomach. She wrapped her arms around his neck and enjoyed their time. They both stared at each other lovely, especially Optimus. He was in love with Y/N. She was beautiful and her personality suited her perfectly.

Y/N giggled and wrapped her legs around his waist and that's when they both went back up. Once they both were above water, Y/N got her goggles off. Optimus helped her and that's when they both swam under the bridge. Y/N got pinned against the wood pole and Optimus smashed his lips against hers. He was finally kissing her.

Y/N immediatly kissed him back. She loved him too with her whole heart. Just like the leader loved her with his whole heart.

Merformers is accepted as well! That's a surprise :)

[chavire]

We answered a few questions about the band during quarantine, for the spanish fanzine Face The Lie. As we were pretty excited about the questions and thought it could have some interest, here it is in its english version.

_

Hi guys! How are you doing? Before starting maybe we should put ourselves in a situation. Who are Chaviré? In which other bands do you play or have you played? What motivates you to tour, make songs?

Hi, thank you for giving us some space to talk about CHAVIRÉ and what we put behind this band. As a presentation, we could say that the band started at the end of 2013 and that we played our first shows at the end of the next year, in 2014. We previously played — or still play — in A.S.T.R.O., COLD HEART DAYS, DÉDALE, GHOST FRIENDS, HOMESICK and WATERTANK to name some of our other bands. We started to play together as some friends, convinced by our love for the same songs and the desire to bind them with some politics we felt connected with. Six years later, it is still those three main reasons that hold us together, writing songs and play them live.

Last summer you released your new album, titled Maintenant Que Les Flammes Sont Partout ("now that flames are everywhere"). What did you wanted to express with this title? And what can you tell us about this album?

We tried to give this record a title that would be the testimony of the era that surrounded its creation. We think it's pretty clear for everyone who looked at the world around us that we couldn't possibly spend three months without seeing the people from a country rising up against their leaders and taking the streets against them. We wanted to dedicate the album to those involved in the increase of those flames all around the world and sing for their constant multiplication.

The lyrics of this album seem to me a bit more convoluted than those of your previous albums, you have to give them more readings to understand them. Did you wanted to change your way of composing the lyrics or was it an involuntary evolution?

As usual, our lyrics are very influenced by the books and authors that go with the writing process. You are right saying that maybe it is a bit different from the previous records. We always said that the lyrics were very influenced by some texts and that we stole a lot to put it in our songs. This time it's still the case but we tried to give some more space to poetry and theater. As time goes by, we were a bit scared to look like those anarchist bands that repeat slogans song after song... We are glad to hear that you noticed this change of things, it is obvious to say that there is politics everywhere but it is better to show it, by using an unexpected extract of a anthropologic book or some lines from a poem. For the first time with this record, we tried to quote most of the references so maybe it will give some ideas and things to dig in.

What is the story or background behind "Alice, 1977"?

Radio Alice is an Italian radio from the end of the 1970s located in Bologna. It's closely linked with the italian autonomous movement from the same era and more precisely the A/Traverso collective. The quotation «Le pouvoir n'est pas seulement là où se prennent des décisions horribles, mais partout où le discours enlève le corps, la rage, le hurlement, le geste de vivre» comes directly from an A/Traverso leaflet. Overall, the song was written in opposition with some of the quirks of the communities that surround us, where it is more valuable to look radical, rather than actively trying to change the world. At some point in the italian movement, there was this turning point where it didn't make sense for some of them to claim their worker identity, their women identity, mostly because all of these categories were those of the power, of this world, and these communities wanted to split up with this world and its categories.

With “Alice, 1977”, the idea was to put this era to the attention of people who perhaps don't know it, allowing them to find some inspiration in it. Most of the questions we're passing through are obviously not new, and it was in our opinion a political sequence where these questions found some interesting treatment.

What does CHAVIRÉ mean?

It could be translated in english as “capsized”, it refers to the moment right after a boat has overturned. We won't lie, this name is at first the result of a joke, more or less.

One of the things that surprised me in a good way when I first knew about you was that you didn't have Facebook, but instead you have a Tumblr page with, in addition to information about the band, a lot of political texts. Do you just don’t care about Facebook and those networks? Why did you chose Tumblr?

We “chose” to make a Tumblr page at first because it seemed to be the easiest thing to put something a bit more “personal” than just a Bandcamp page. Moreover we were so unable to manage a website by ourselves, and none of our close friends seemed able to build one that we could manage easily... In fact, the way we decided to be visible on the Internet has been very determined by our poor capacities and the fact that we decided, since the beginning of the band, that we preferred to make us visible only when we had something to say rather than just be here to be here — it is pointless to try to tackle professional rock bands in this game, doesn't it? And yet, we recently created an instagram account... We also wanted to upset some diehards from the other side!

What do you think of the term emocore? For you, when does a group cross the hardcore barrier to enter emocore? Is it a matter of lyrics, sound, attitude,...?

Well, it's just a subgenre doesn't it? The barrier is just crossed when the one who makes the poster decides to call a band this way. It has been historically a way to gather bands that were playing at the same time from the same area (for the Revolution Summer it basically works like this), but at some point, it is a way to play punk music.

It was said about you that you take music too seriously, belittling those who play only for having a good time without sending a message. Don't you conceive how someone can do it or is it simply not your thing? Do you have friend bands like that?

Well, if music obviously contains a game aspect — who would deny it? —, we would rather play it with smart people. It's not about any kind of content or attitude, it is mostly about having the feeling that we share more with some bands than some chords or shirts. We are still sorry for those who felt judged by us, we couldn't fill the lack of interest they seem to have for themselves, and at some point we still can't understand why they needed our approval so much.

Do you conceive a hardcore scene without politicizing? And a DIY without a political background?

We have to be careful with this sentence that repeats to anyone who would listen that “personal is political”: the recent history proved us that it led us to believe that we just had to buy at organic stores and not to say swear words to become a potential ally for an ongoing revolution, to simplify. But music contains this interesting idea that it can't be undone from its whole production process: its material production obviously (from gear to electricity), but mostly because its production is tied in a network (people who play, who release, who book to make it easy), under technical and aesthetically pleasing considerations (how do we want to sound? do we play well enough? does the interpretation fit to the idea?). At some point, the choices and the answers to those questions imply to get you into some positions that translate political views about the world. Depending on how they fit with others, it can create friendships and even “scenes”. In order to answer your initial question, we could say that obviously we do conceive a scene without politicizing (but it is even more than that, we'd rather say “with views about the world that are radically different from ours”), the question consequently becomes “do we have something to share together then?” and it is immediately easier to answer.

In Maintenant Que Les Flammes Sont Partout you included a song about May 68, something that lately interests me a lot. How influential is this and the situationist movement today?

There is a very tenuous link between the uprising of May 68 in French universities and the Situationist International, as you may already know it. It is hard to fully understand why, but a part of this relation seems a bit forgotten today in the official history, one of the main reason is to be found in the fact that Situationists refused to be represented as leaders, as opposed to some figures at this time. Fortunately, Kristin Ross relates this incomplete story in her fascinating book May '68 and Its Afterlives, talking about how this political sequence has been erased and captured by the freshly reshaped neoliberalism to present it as a liberal and individual revolution. As we already said for the autonomous movement that took place in Italy during the second part of the '70s, these moments are very inspiring and rich in lessons. They refer to insurrectionary times when the power could really be overthrown.

In the case of the Situationist International, it's important to understand that since the late '50s the group theorized and wrote about the reconfigurations of the post-war capitalism, and the advent of the consumer society which really arose at this moment. It was a moment of radical artistic avant-gardes: Antonin Artaud just died ten years before, the surrealist and lettrist movements were still recent experiences for the situationists, the Beat Generation was experiencing overseas and this artistic emulation gave them paths to explore and to renew the forms of art without separating it from the revolutionary horizon.

With these months that have passed since the appearance of the Mouvement des gilets jaunes, what balance do you make of it?

We lived something that could be considered as the most unsettling political event of the decade or even more, with the appearance of this gilets jaunes movement last year. Still today, it is hard to gauge the political and existential impact created by the outbreak of these yellow vests on some roundabouts in the November dawn. We're not overplaying it by saying that they helped to re-draw the lines of the political division, in that they opposed the revolutionary action to the revolutionary posture and bliss, and proved us that revolution was a question of desire instead of a rational one. For a part, they were people that never took part in radical politics as we can understand it, that never attended a demonstration or organized a strike, etc. In some areas they created what could be considered as communes, existing as a community in a world — this unbearable fiction — that had always made them existing as individuals.

It seems that in the whole world people are waking up and taking back the streets seriously. Either in Chile, Venezuela, or in France itself. Have we reached the maximum pressure point for people to explode?

We took so long answering this interview that in the meantime Lebanon went up in flames too, and while most of these countries were facing some major representation crisis with the whole institutional politics, a virus sent us back in our respective homes as separated individuals. We're insisting on the concept of “individual” because it's fundamental to understand that this category is a pretty recent one that has emerged with the modern definition of “society”. It's very clear now that both the “individual” and the “society” have emerged in order to defeat communities that were an ungovernable model for the powers, or at least less easily governable in that they were indivisible entities. We have to consider the return of this hypothesis after two hundred years of capitalism, the need of community (this is basically what communism is all about) comes back to the point, by every means, and the people go out, fight the police, and take the streets.

I read that in your first concerts you distributed sheets with the lyrics and explanations. Do you keep doing it? What was the reason, make clear parts that were open to various interpretations, expand information on the subject or try to make people really listen to what you have to say?

We distributed our lyrics for quite a long time, but to be honest we haven't done it for a while. This move was influenced by some bands before us, mostly from this first french emo wave with band that used to do so. The idea was to put the lyrics right in front of the audience, as something we could claimed but also as a starting point to talk about. One of the reason that led us to stop was also the idea that there are other ways to “talk”: gesture, music and intensity that can become languages when we start to take them seriously and make a good use of it, they can convey things that words sometimes cannot.

Do you read / do fanzines? What importance do you give them in the hardcore / anarchist scene? Lately I have heard more than one person saying that it isn’t coherent to continue to make fanzines on paper and contributing to the environmental impact having such powerful networks which reach as many people as the Internet. What do you think of this?

Some of us used to write fanzines back in the days, and we also have to recognize that after have been serious fanzine-readers we're less curious these days. Because of it, we are tempted to say that there are less issues than a few years ago, which is probably wrong and mostly influenced by the fact that we don't really dig in. We talked above of this idea of “network”, and fanzines do participate from this idea that autonomy should be earned everywhere it is possible. At some point, we could say that there is victory everytime a fanzine can bypass the traditional plan established by the music industry.

About the fact that 200 printed zines could possibly contribute to the environmental impact, well... maybe some people should try to think about how “green” their online datas are, in fact it really is a stupid accusation. Once again it mostly lies on the idea that politics is an affair of separated individuals doing their own parts more or less, which is the one of the lies of the liberalism. We can continue to pee while taking a shower and turning the lights off when leaving a room, it's pointless if we don't take seriously the idea of overthrowing economy and industries.

Related to the previous question, what is your opinion of the Internet? Does it make us better or worse?

Do you really think that four guys who have a hell of a job creating a Tumblr page could have any useful opinion on this internet thing?

A few days ago a friend told me that if one day I go to France I must go to Nantes, because it is the best city in the state. What happens in Nantes to have earned such fame? Is it really that cool? Because one of the things that you talk about on your album Interstices is about the feeling of apathy generated by living in a gentrified and clonic city, isn't it? What good things happen in your city?

With Interstices, we wanted to summarize what creates this unified feeling from one metropolis to another, from almost every gentrified city center. This is the fascinating thing with the metropolis paradox: on this captured-by-control-dispositives territory, there are at the same time desertion acts and zones that try to re-think autonomy and rooms of manoeuvre. What makes Nantes pretty specific at some point is this relation between the city center and its countryside. In fact we can't fully understand what makes this city special without talking of the well-known ZAD of Notre-Dame-Des-Landes right? Everybody knows it for the resistance against the airport that was supposed to be built there (and that will never be) but the thing is that the ZAD was, and still is, a territory fighting for its material autonomy, which tries to bind metropolitan resistances with the experience of building a form-of-life from the community: an attempt to build a commune for real.

Three of us have lived in Nantes for almost ten years now. Is the city really hype these days? It is hard to tell in our cases, we're living there and cannot really take this stance to measure the impact from elsewhere. Let's just say that this is a city with many secret stories, artistic and political ones, and since we're living in Nantes we felt connected to some of them and tried to take part of. I guess this is what holds us here. In concrete terms, we could talk about La Dérive which is a bar and a community canteen we're involved in. It's a place where you can drink, eat, attend a book presentation or a movie or just come to play chess with a friend. There are places like Les Ateliers de Bitche where you can attend nice shows, and La Commune de Dalby Football Club to play football on Sunday afternoon with some friends.

In your Tumblr you include a very interesting text about the pros and cons of the free price. It attracts me a lot, because besides allowing anyone to feel excluded based on their economy, it empowers you in the process and makes you abandon the role of passive consumer, but I share the opinion that if it becomes institutionalized and becomes something systematic it can lose the critical and anti-capitalist background. Have you set or have you considered putting your albums and merch at free price?

When we first read this text about donation in Maximum Cuvette (a french zine from Grenoble), we thought it was smart enough to practically ask the question of the economy inside a microcosm that tends to get rid of it, to examine the institutional process always contained in economy and at the same time how this “name your price” thing could bypass the rigidity always contained in standard economy. You're absolutely right and the text says so, at some point donations can feed the illusion that we got rid of the economy which is obviously a lie, it is just an attempt to manage with its rigidity but under a re-institutionalized form: this is never enough and it is important to be aware that donations are just a way to make the best of the situation.

Since we started CHAVIRÉ, our merch as always been on donation. It was at first the easiest way to manage with selling merch to us. We talk about it together from time to time, we sometimes evoke the idea to sell merch at a flexible-fixed-price, like “a record costs 10€, if you really can't afford it, well, less is fine too”. For now we keep it this way, also because it became a kind of a habit, but to be honest this donation thing is so ritualized around us that it often works as a disguised fixed price, and does not really empowers anyone at the merch table because almost everyone there can afford what you sale. To be honest, we're more and more lax with our whole merch stuff and barely see the point in having five different shirt models and buttons and patches and so on mostly because we're not really into it anymore...

Many times I feel frustrated in some way by trying to explain the operation and ethics of DIY to people who are not involved in it. How would you explain this?

Well, we would point at the fact that the ethics behind the whole DIY thing in punk community is mostly based on the increase of a practical autonomy. This is mostly about what DIY should be all about, the growth of a network that could exist by itself, for itself without depending on any power or institution. This idea of a proper existence is important, because it implies some requirements with ourselves trying to build something that is not just an “alternative”, a counter-model based on a mirror effect from the cultural institutions, because this just reinforces the legitimacy of it, putting us back to the margins. When this is said, we didn't say much, but let's keep in mind that the operation led by DIY is one of the many attempts where autonomy is experienced (we talked about the ZAD and the late '70s Italy already, there are many examples). These autonomous experiences can be sometimes hard to translate with words, most of the time they are understood when they're lived, when they overtake the words to become perceptible, incarnate. In fact, the words can't describe the mixed feelings of joy, mutual requirement, friendship of these autonomous attempts that hold people together, how can it be explained as something else than the promise of a fast-track life?

You have made some very cool ripoffs of Orchid, Embrace, Portraits Of Past, ... for stickers and merch. Do you have any more in mind?

Let's say we have already done way too much of them for just one band. So everyone knows that we have great tastes and that we're not too bad at Photoshop (s/o to our best ripoff that you did not mentioned which was a Chanel one), but it has to stop now!

In addition your flyers, covers, "logos" like the (A) made of flowers are very worked up and for me they have very good taste. Do you take care of this or do you entrust it to friends? Which graphic artists inspire you the most?

For sure this whole artwork thing is something that matters to us, we wouldn't deny it. But it is pretty clear that it has evolved a lot since the moment we started the band from things more “traditional” — not to say expected, such as the combo of typewriter font and linocut drawings which is the perfect example — to more personal artwork: since the last record, the Atelier McClane duo took care of the whole graphic thing to tie the images with the sound and the words. Some of us have an interest in visual arts and we have friends who consider that any revolutionary act will need to find its own form, which implies to think about its graphic one. Let's just mention the work of the Atelier McClane obviously but the Capital Taboulé collective from Rennes too, the Super Terrain collective from Nantes, Bonjour Grisaille and the Atelier Summercity from Brest, Marine Le Thellec from Marseille to talk about our friends and favourite ones. We couldn't end this list without also mentioning Hugues Pzzl who made the artwork of Interstices and our split with BASTOS, and who contributed a lot to renew the visual forms of the punk scene in France — a renewal that was so much needed.

Which situations, books, movies, people, actions, bands have inspired you the most, both to do things with Chaviré and to do things on your personal life?

This is always a touchy question, fortunately we left as much references as possible in the whole interview that could be used as a part of the answer. And obviously we'll be happy to develop if anyone wants to know more, our mailbox is always open!

What are you most keen on to lately? What do you like to do in your free time? What frees you from everyday boredom?

Since we are, as a large part of the world population, currently cloistered home while answering this interview, we have plenty of this free time you're talking about. Here in France, it's been a month of quarantine and we mostly spent it separated from each other but with friends and families. We tried to take advantage of the situation writing new songs, sharing playlists and movie recommendations, keeping in touch together. We don't know when the zine will be out but this moment is very decisive and we have to be really attentive, in order to act as soon as it will be possible. A few weeks ago, an absolutely incredible text entitled “Monologue du virus” has been published in the French media Lundi Matin and has since been translated in various languages (https://lundi.am/What-the-virus-said). Recently we also discovered the Leftove.rs archives (https://leftove.rs) which is an incredible database about autonomy with many leaflets, zines and books from pretty much everywhere around the world.

Future plans?

Improving dad skills.

Doing more muay thai.

Getting degrees.

So far, thank you very much for the patience of answering all this! Anything else to add? See you, hugs!

Thanks again for sending this absolutely fascinating interview, which is hands down one of the most interesting we've ever answered to. Hope we've been precise enough, feel free to write us if it's not the case in these troubled times.
