Zedaph owns one of those pointer things that have a skeleton hand at the end. It glows in the dark
Of course he does ! It's an essential scientific instrument after all ! How else would he present his discoveries ?
-No skeletons were harmed (just a bit dis-armed) in the making.- AND it matches the Halloween season perfectly.

Type Of Boyfriend They Are
Tumblr media
Karasuno x Gender Neutral!Reader Headcanons
Warnings: Language. That's pretty much it.
Author's Note: I've been having a pretty heavy case of writer's block especially with a lot of things going on in my life right now. My mental health is a bit unstable, but I had this idea written down in my list of writing ideas and thought that it was so cute. I hope you all enjoy, and I'll probably make headcanons for the rest of the schools too!
Hope you all enjoy and I hope that you all are doing well <3
~Mod Shoyo <3
-Kageyama, Shoyo, Yamaguchi, Tsukishima, Daichi, Asahi, Sugawara, Tanaka, Noya
Kageyama Tobio:
Heā€™s very stand-offish when the two of you first meet
ā€œuhā€¦ can I help you?ā€
Once the two of you get to know each other though, you find out that heā€™s actually a closeted crackhead under that harsh exterior he has
After dating for a couple of months, heā€™s very comfortable with you and loves spending time with you
QUALITY TIME AND GIFT GIVING BOYFRIEND.
Whether you like volleyball or not, heā€™s asking you to help him practice, come to his games, come to his practice matches, he wants you to be there for EVERYTHING
If you manage to show your support by making him a sign or putting his number on your cheeks at one of his games??????
He definitely will deny it, but he absolutely adores it.
ā€œYou should do this more often, it was sweet.ā€
Shoyo teases you guys all the time and says that youā€™re the only one that brings out the rational side of Tobio
That will normally end with Shoyo getting hurt somehow, no matter how much you tell Kageyama to leave him alone
You still love him though <3
Hinata Shoyo:
OH MY GODDDDDDDDD
The absolute biggest ball of sunshine ever
Golden. Retriever. Boyfriend.Ā 
Heā€™s very heavy on physical touch and quality time
No matter what youā€™re doing, Shoyo always wants to be there just to see what youā€™re doing
ā€œOoh whatcha up to lovey?ā€
Heā€™s like a lap dog. He will lay his head in your lap just so he can stare up at you while youā€™re doing whatever youā€™re doing
Whenever you show up to his games he gets SO NERVOUS???? Like his stomach issues multiply by a hundred because youā€™re literally in the stands to watch HIM.
In the end, he always tries his best because he wants you to be so proud of him and enjoy watching him play!!
Everyone on the team loves you, youā€™re literally the only person that can make Shoyo shut up for more than five minutes because he just LOVES to admire you and appreciate how perfect you are.
ā€œYouā€™re so gorgeousā€¦ we should likeā€¦ kiss or something.ā€
Heā€™s so affectionate itā€™s too cute.
Yamaguchi Tadashi:
Tadashi just loves when youā€™re being you.
Heā€™s always sneaking glances at you and just thinking about how soft your features are and how lucky he is to have bagged someone like you.
GIFT GIVING. GIFT GIVING. GIFT GIVING.
ā€œHey love, I found this super cute keychain while I was at the store with Tsuki the other day and it reminded me of you!ā€
ā€œI remember you saying that this was your favorite and they only had one left, so I had to get it before someone else that wasnā€™t you did!ā€
Heā€™s just so thoughtful. He always remembers the little things.
The very first day you kissed him? He celebrates it every year by giving you a million smooches.
You only like one very specific flavor of ice cream? He will never ever give you a different flavor and goes to multiple stores if he has to when they donā€™t have it
He isnā€™t the biggest with PDA, but he will most definitely hold your hand and kiss your cheek, forehead, or your hand.
He just gets a little shy when heā€™s out in public with you, but only because he doesnā€™t want other people looking at you and thinking that they have a chance with you.
Heā€™s so non-confrontational, but if push comes to shove, heā€™ll make sure that everyone knows youā€™re his.
He just loves you so much and heā€™s so glad that youā€™re his. Forever. <3
Kei Tsukishima:
HEā€™S SO SARCASTIC ITā€™S ANNOYING.
Likes to play this game in public where he acts like he isnā€™t your boyfriend
ā€œExcuse me, do I know you?ā€
HE LITERALLY HELD HANDS WITH YOU WALKING INTO THE STORE?!?!??!
You can be sarcastic too, so heā€™s just glad that you can take jokes and rip on his teammates or randos in the street
This dude has such a killer resting bitch face when he notices people eyeing you.
Noya tested his luck flirting with you one time and, despite Noya being his upperclassman, Tsuki almost killed him with just one look
He secretly loves how much you fuss over him.
ā€œBabe, your glasses are so DIRTY. Here let me clean them before you run into something,ā€
He literally stopped the habit of cleaning his lenses because youā€™ll just take them and clean them for him
He loves watching you fog the lenses up with your breath and wipe them with the microfiber cloth that came in his case
Even if you only look like a big blur of colors to him and youā€™re all blurry <3
Tanaka Ryuunosuke:
The most respectful yet horny boyfriend at the same time
ā€œWhat the hell do you mean that guy cat called you?ā€
He says as his hand is resting on your ass, giving it an occasional squeeze from time to time.
Very overprotective, but not in an overbearing way
Despite how loud and chaotic he may be (especially when heā€™s with Noya) he always picks up on your small cues and knows when youā€™re uncomfy or feeling a little out of place
He loves to bring you up at all times
ā€œYou know thatā€™s crazy, because my baby loves to eat meat buns and can easily smash like seven of them in one sitting. *sigh* Iā€™m so in love.ā€
Daichi literally just told him what he ate for lunch today when Tanaka asked.
PDA is his JAM.
Always has a hand somewhere on you and loves how you just nuzzle into his touch whenever heā€™s with you
Itā€™s everything heā€™s ever wanted in life and heā€™s so stoked that he finally has it
His favorite place is your ass though. Itā€™s easy access and itā€™s very soft and comfy in his palm
Nishinoya Yuu:
SOMEONE SEDATE HIM HEā€™S SO ENERGETIC
The type of boyfriend to annoy you and push your buttons all day and then just lay a million kisses all over your face at the end of the day as he tells you how much he loves you
Heā€™s so hyped up to do anything with you
Heā€™s definitely the type to enjoy running errands with you because he pretends that youā€™re married already and that these errands are just married couple tingz
He loves to embarrass you in public
Yall will be at a store while youā€™re just looking at clothes and trying to find some new outfits before he starts yelling as loud as he can so that people from five aisles down can hear him
ā€œOH MY GOD YOU CANā€™T STEAL THAT SHIRT BABE, WHATā€™S WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!ā€
You literally walk away and act like you donā€™t know him for the rest of the day
Nonetheless, heā€™s so appreciative of you and makes sure you know how much he loves you
The second that you first announced to the team that you were dating, you couldā€™ve sworn you saw tears of joy falling from Kiyokoā€™s eyes
You keep him grounded and always help bring him out of the dark places his mind goes to when he messes up during games
Hearing you tell him how good of a libero he is and how amazing he is always snaps him out of things. Heā€™d be a wreck without you
Daichi Sawamura:
The most caring boyfriend ever literally what the fuck-
He worries about your well-being all the time and isnā€™t afraid to show how much he cares about you no matter where you guys are
Sure, heā€™ll scold you for being clumsy and tripping in the gym, but also?
ā€œWhy the hell did they wax the floors before we started practicing? Weā€™re just gonna dirty them again anyways?ā€
Heā€™s such a passionate lover
ā€œHey, you look like youā€™ve got a lot on your mind. What can I do to fix that?ā€
SO MATURE IN A RELATIONSHIP.
Heā€™s so good with communicating his feelings to you and wants you to know whateverā€™s going on with him and reassure you no matter what
Absolutely adores pressing kisses to your temples. He loves how you just stare into his eyes with the biggest smile ever and can see your pupils shift into hearts every time he does it
The two of you just make so much sense being together? Match made in heaven type of shit
His very older brother/dad morals have rubbed off on you and now youā€™re yelling at the boys the same way that he does.Ā 
He always whispers to Suga or Asahi about how proud he is of you while watching you scold someone for being immatureĀ 
Asahi Azumane:
The literal definition of Cottage Core
When you hung out with him at his house for the first time, he had so many succulents and well-cared for plants
Heā€™s so soft, he just loves you so much
He loves when you give him scalp massages after taking his bun down
Whenever you go to his house after practice, heā€™ll shower and have you wash his hair for him because he canā€™t relieve the tension he feels on his head like you do
He writes you love letters and leaves them in such random places for you to find
ā€œHey honey, did you leave a letter in my bento box? When I opened it, it had a little bit of curry sauce on it.ā€
He just blushes and giggles slightly, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.
Loves to call you the cringiest/cutest pet names ever.
Honey pie, sweetums, sugar plumā€¦
You giggle every time he says it out loud because his teammates canā€™t help but make fun of him whenever they hear it
Theyā€™re so cringe coming out of anyone elseā€™s mouth. Not his though <3
Sugawara Koushi:
You will never ever catch Suga smelling bad.
Even after practice, you canā€™t smell that musty stench of sweat on him because itā€™s masked by all the deodorant he puts on.
MOST DEFINITELY smells like a bath and body works scent. It changes depending on the season and he loves smelling good according to the season
ā€œSuga, is thatā€¦ champagne toast?ā€
You bet your sweet ass it is.
Suga gives the most heartfelt and warm hugs in the world, itā€™s like hugging a warm blanket.
Heā€™s so loving and it shows in all of his words and actions.
ā€œAww darling, let me wipe your nose. I told you it was going to be cold and to wear a thicker sweater when we talked on the phone this morning,ā€
When he says stuff like that his face is literally just >:(
His kisses are so soft. He loves to kiss your nose because of the way it scrunches up after his lips leave
ā€œDo you not like my kisses?ā€ Smooch. ā€œIs that what youā€™re trying to tell me?ā€ Mwuah. ā€œI wonā€™t stop until you accept my kisses.ā€
You just keep scrunching it because you love when he kisses you. He knows that, he just loves to make it a little fake argument between you two <3

ā€œME & YOU?ā€ ā€” hkr
\\ soft yan streamer bf , mod!user , silly fic for y'all , obsessive , implied stalking in the past , implied doxxing //
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Akira likes streaming with you.
You both started with meeting each other through an rpg game, agreeing to become his mod, becoming friends, and then meeting in real life and falling in love. It was a normal cliche love story about two gamers falling for each other in your point of view, what about Akira's point of view?
It remains a secret.
You always wondered how he knew all of your favorite things right off the bat, how he knew your awkward gestures, your hobbies and all of that. Maybe he was just really attentive to the things you did..
Akira wasn't a stalker.
He's sweet, he always takes care of you, putting your wants over his. Both of you communicate when something goes wrong, you balance everything. It was a perfect and a normal relationship.
At least that's what you thought.
Tumblr media
hkruu: what r we playing today !!
Not_venti: wsg chattttttt
xX_AMI_Xx: r u playing with ur s/o?
yurisghs: hi akiraaaa [akira_pat]
fatgirlsummer: when's the continuation of Until Then ?? ^^
"Until Then? Uh, I mean, probably next week." Akira's eyes glanced over the chat box, watching as many viewers greeted him with good afternoons and nights. "My significant other?" He raised his right eyebrow curiously, reading aloud one of the questions.
"Honestly, I'm not sure if they'll be able to make it on time.." Akira leaned back on his gaming chair, stretching a little.
killlove_i: nauur why [akira_sob]
Not_venti: skibidi will make it on time trust.
tsukasaaaa: I hope they're well ><
cutiepie101: COOP PKEASE !!!
"I'm probably just gonna farm today, not unless Lisa invites me again." He smiles towards the camera, loading up HSR. "I'm not pulling for uh, rappa? The new character I mean, I forgot their name."
llyyyn: lol same
yurisghs: is she good? Ion look at leaks
Not_venti: I'm pulling:))
lamanbrug_01: goodluck to those pulling!!
sdkwohryuu: I want Sunday [akira_sob]
"I want Sunday too.. physically.." Akira pouts, eventually breaking into a silly smile. The rest of the stream going fine as usual, farming here, doing the new quest, companion quest, pulling for Fei Xaio, you know the rest.
A good hour and a half passes and suddenly there's a;
Ding!
"Hey chat, guess who's home!" Akira suddenly brightened, focusing on the game even more as he patiently waited for the same sentence he always heard every single day. Of course, he'd never get tired of it, never.
"I'm home!" A muffled voice could be heard in the background.
Not_venti: I TOKD U THEYD MAKE IT OJ TIME
xX_AMI_Xx: I js woke up whay happened
yurisghs: caught my lonely ass smiling
yumiwgeo: can't relate @yurisighs
Not_venti: LMAO
"You'll find someone yurisghs!" He snickered, quickly exiting out of HSR and logging onto Genshin instead, the familiar bright screen never failing to blind him.
nnsigma [MOD]: hi chat
Not_venti: hi skibidi
yurisghs: halooo
lynnuoo: wsg
yumiwgeo: [akira_wave]
tsukasaaaa: [akira_wave]
"sup babe, yes I ate, I drank water, I showered, I cooked lunch and I did the laundry." Akira's smirk was evident, quickly doing his commissions in-game. If you're wondering he mains Neuvilette.
nnsigma [MOD]: ok good [akira_pat]
nnsigma [MOD]: let's play dti instead ong
Not_venti: real
Guihimoo: [akira_nod]
"No."
About the said ā€˜Akira is probably just really attentiveā€™ towards you.. let's expand a little bit on that.
Tumblr media
The first time you met each other at a nearby Cafe, you were surprised. The pictures of Akira on discord didn't do justice to what he looks like in real life, this guy was walking around as if he just came out of a red carpet..
Aside from that, his personality was still the same as online. Teasing, snarky, he's still got that attitude, and of course playful ā€” he was the fun type you'd want to be friends with. But, he really was your type.
You couldn't resist glancing towards his neck from time to time, hell ā€” you couldn't even make eye contact without being mentally flustered. "Is something wrong?" He'd ask, but you'd immediately shake your head and go along with what he's saying.
I mean, Akira didn't know your address, why are you asking why he knew the way back to your home? He used to live here.
"W-woah.. we have more in common than I thought!" You beamed while Akira smiled softly, it looks like his hard work did pay off. All that late night searching, perfecting and practicing ā€” it was worth it in the very end because you were finally here.
Akira could see you, touch you, feel you, make you feel things you've never felt ā€” ah, how he wishes he could go back in time just to see your horrified expression when you almost got doxxed by someone anonymous.
Of course, he was the one to comfort you at the time, the way you opened up to him about everything, finally letting him know of your feelings.. It was worth every little thing he had worked hard for.
It didn't matter if he had a small or huge fan base what mattered was you being right beside him, experiencing hardships and hope. Akira could do anything, he could try his best ā€” he's not perfect, he has many flaws he'll admit that.
But..
It was worth it if it was you.
Akira was glad that the world hasn't ended yet. Not that it would happen any time soon but ā€” he'd want to be next to you even if it was a life or death situation.
Tumblr media
Extras:
"I'm rating you 1 star for the effort. You suck." Akira tapped on the tablet aggressively, while you squirmed right next to him, trying to desperately get your phone case back on ā€” fumbling quite badly.
"I'm rating you 1 star too!"
"You're just mad I'm a trend setter."

Artisan Skill Gain Fix
Tumblr media
Here is something that probably no one asked for but here it goes. Maybe someone else needs it too The Glass Blowing Station from the Sims 3 Store, that comes with The Prism Art Studio. Also interduces the Artisan Skill. This is probably my favorite Sims 3 Store Premium Content. However this is EA after all and for whatever reason, the skill gain for the Artisan skill is astronomically high. You sim will gain 2.5 skill points just from crafting their first glass object. And you will max it within a day or two. As a kid I used to exploit this back in the day, but now I want more of a challenge, hence this mod was born.
Technical Things:
This is the weirdest skill done by EA. It has a different skill gain compared to the rest of Store Skills. I didn't have the time to look at the Vanilla skills but I am going to assume that all of them are like the other store skills.
The code is a bit of a mess, so I can't figure out what is the skill gain value actually is. The default skill gain for this skill is 50. 50 what? Per minute, hour...? I experimented with different values and I settled on 10. Again 10 what? But this seems to make it match the rest of the skills. Anything less was too slow, anything higher was too fast. This mod requires the Glass Blowing Station to be installed(official or decrapped). Just put this mod in Mods>Packages if you have it installed as a .sims3pack. And if you have it as a .package file I believe it needs to go into Mods>Overrides folder(I can't test this).
There are no mods that conflict with my mod, that I am aware of.

Could you do another pezzy fic? Maybe even the rest of the boys too (puffer, droid, Grizzy) something like a faceless streamer getting like made fun of and the boys help them?
Agoraphobic (Pezzy X Faceless! Reader)
Fandom: RPF/Miscellaneous
Requested: Clearly (You caught me in a Pezzy mood, so I tried it lmk if it's shit)
Warnings: Online hate, agoraphobia
POV: First Person POV
W.C. 1291
Summary: When chat takes hate too far, the reader quits only to return for more hate (and loosely based on Agoraphobic by Corpse Husband).
As always, my requests are OPEN
MASTERLIST // HITLIST
Tumblr media
~~(^Pinterest)
My whole career started by accident. The pandemic shut down everything, including where I worked, and I got laid off. Streaming became a sense of normalcy in the craziness that was the world. Games were what I did best given that I was a game designer and tester.Ā 
It started one night when my boyfriend, Pezzy, talked about it. He said his friends were thinking about it, so the next day, I logged onto Twitch.tv and streamed my favorite game for the moment, Among Us. It was a low-IQ game, and the fun graphics were interesting to look at. I joined a random lobby, and the rest was history.
I blew up from my imposter plays and impeccable detective skills. My viewers went from 10 to 100 to 1,000 and before I knew it, I was at 250,000 viewers. Through this time, I never care about a camera. Mainly because I knew they would tear me apart, and I would not subject myself to that torture. However, recently, it seemed that people did not even need to see my face to trash me.
ā€œIf you guys canā€™t behave, Iā€™m going to either get more mods or just quit,ā€ I said one day on stream when it seemed like the hate was never-ending. Every other message I saw was a comment about how I am probably ugly, I canā€™t pull anyone, or just flat-out calling me degrading names.
It never stopped.
I put up with it for nearly four years before calling it quits. Despite the support from Pezzy, telling me not to listen to anyone else, it was hard to be berated every second of every stream especially when it seemed like everyone used the highlighted texts or text-to-speech to shout at me.Ā 
It really took a toll on my mental health. I became so self-conscious, and the fact that I had severe social anxiety did not help my case. I retreated into myself as I got bigger, and the bigger I got, the more paranoid I got. It got so bad to the point where I retreated into my house, and I could barely function without antidepressants.
One day, I was feeling spontaneous. I wanted to stream. I wanted to game. I wanted to interact with people. I asked Pezzy if I could join him for a Mario Kart stream, but play off-camera in the same room.Ā 
The stream started off fun. I won a few, lost a few, and had some fun battles in the game against Pezzyā€™s friends. Then, it turned south.
Ex-fans and haters filled Pezzyā€™s chat and his friendsā€™ streams. Their mods could not keep up either. It was becoming the only thing we could see, and it was getting in the way of their normal conversations with their chats.Ā 
ā€œMods, do we need some backup? Where did these people even come from?ā€ Puffer said as he looked to his moderators for help, but noticed they were doing as much as they could. ā€œThereā€™s so many of them!ā€
ā€œItā€™s like they spawned out of nowhere,ā€ Grizzy laughed before getting serious as well, ā€œbut for real guys, knock it off. Theyā€™re not doing anything wrong.ā€
ā€œYeah, if it doesnā€™t stop, Iā€™ll end stream right now,ā€ Pezzy gave an ultimatum as he looked over at me to see how I was reacting. I was pretty numb, but my mood was visibly ruined. ā€œYou know what, guys. Iā€™m gonna end the stream anyway. I donā€™t know when Iā€™ll stream next, so look at my Twitter. Bye, guys.ā€Ā 
The other guys did not need to be told twice as they followed suit and ended their stream as well. They each sent reassuring messages to me as I left the room once the camera was off.Ā 
I walked outside to sit on the patio. Since we just moved to the new house, we had not had the chance to get patio furniture yet, so I took a seat on the concrete. I was still under the cover, but I sat right on the edge. It was pouring rain, something that rarely ever happened, but it was my favorite weather. Rain was always so calming for me, and it made me feel at peace despite the thunder I read online.Ā 
After a while, Pezzy joined me. He sat beside me with a blanket that he put over my shoulders and pulled me into his side. The serenity of the rain combined with the comfort from Pezzy helped calm my racing heart.
ā€œI love when it rainsā€ I broke the silence, looking out into the yard as I refused to look toward Pezzy. I let it hang in the air for a beat before I sighed, ā€œI canā€™t do shit right. I canā€™t learn my lesson. They donā€™t want me online, but they give me shit for not streaming. I canā€™t even play with your friends without them finding me.ā€
ā€œItā€™s not your fault theyā€™re assholes,ā€ Pezzy consoled as he rubbed his hand up and down my arm. ā€œItā€™s never been your fault.ā€
ā€œItā€™s my fault I subjected myself to it in the first place,ā€ I pointed out. ā€œIf I had never streamed in the first place, I never would have been in this situation. These people are taking the piss out of gaming, and Iā€™m sick of it! I canā€™t go outside without thinking someone will find me! I am so paranoid about my privacy. Itā€™s like Iā€™m on house arrest.ā€
ā€œYou know the odds of someone recognizing you are slim to none,ā€ Pezzy tried to intervene as I spiraled.
ā€œNo, Pezzy, you donā€™t understand how I think,ā€ I pressed, turning to look at him as I grabbed his hands. ā€œPezzy, theyā€™re always asking questions about my face, and I canā€™t stand it. They will stop at nothing to get what they want. I lived in three apartments before I agreed to move in because somehow, someway, someone found out where I lived, or at least they found my P.O. box and said they knew my address. I live in fear every day that someone is going to find me.ā€ I stopped for a second to let Pezzy absorb what I was saying. I could see the recognition in his eyes. I continued, ā€œPezzy, it has been 1000 days since I had the first threat. I have not been able to function for 1000 days. I love you, Pezzy, but you will never understand how I think. Itā€™s just too complicated.ā€
ā€œListen, I may not understand it completely, but Iā€™d like to. I love you too, and I never understand you fully, but I will always be here to support you,ā€ He leaned in to kiss my forehead before leaning his forehead to mine. ā€œI donā€™t want you to fight your battles alone. Iā€™m here for you. I do not care how many people I gotta fight to tell you otherwise. Iā€™ll fight from the trenches if I have to if it means I get to help you through anything causing you pain.ā€
ā€œYou donā€™t mean that,ā€ I dismissed, looking away as I felt tears fill my eyes. ā€œYou really donā€™t, Pezzy. As much as I know you care, there is no way youā€™d be willing to help me in that way.ā€
ā€œI do! Iā€™d do anything for you,ā€ Pezzy consoled as he put a hand on my chin to turn my face to look at him again. ā€œIā€™m with you till the end of the line, remember? Weā€™ve known each other our whole lives, and Iā€™m not leaving your side. I donā€™t care how dark or difficult it may seem. You are my person till the end of the line, and Iā€™m here for the long ride.ā€

Despite being my favorite prosecutor of the series in my favorite games of the series, I do have a huge problem with Barok van Zieks' writing, and it's his racism. Not that I mind that character flaw, but rather how it's handled.
In the game, Barok is racist towards Japanese people. Mind you, most of the English characters are too, but Barok is not only openly hostile and contemptuous of Japanese culture, but he's also the only character for whom this is a focus point. Later in the game, he overcomes that racism through his legal battles and budding friendship with Ryunosuke, our Japanese protagonist.
That's not what I have a problem with. That would lie in the origin of this racist behavior.
See, unlike the rest of the racist characters in Great Ace Attorney, Barok is prejudiced against Japanese people because of his tragic backstory (big red flag).
When he was younger, Barok actually liked Japanese people, and was even good friends with one, Genshin Asogi, until Genshin was revealed to be the Professor, a serial killer who murdered several members of the judiciary, including Klint van Zieks, Barok's older brother who he idolized. From that point on, Barok had a deep mistrust and hatred of all Japanese people.
That part sucks ass, because the key to Barok stopping being racist is proving that while Genshin did kill Klint, he did so in an honorable duel which Klint accepted, because he was the real Professor and Genshin knew it was the only way to bring him to justice.
This implies at best that Barok would have never been able to overcome his bigotry without the proof of Genshin's innocence, and at worst that his bigotry would've been justified if Genshin really was the Professor.
But the worst (or best, depending on your relationship with headcanons/mods) is that this is so easily fixed, and in fact, the game almost gives us the answer wholesale:
The reason the Professor's true identity was not found is partly due to the efforts of the villains of the game, but also because the rest of the characters involved in his case, including Barok, put Klint on such a pedestal that they unconsciously rejected any evidence of his guilt.
If we want to highlight that moral (?) by contrasting it with our fix to Barok's racism problem, we can simply answer a question that naturally comes to mind with this set up: Why was the British judiciary, including Barok, so quick to write off Genshin as the Professor? Sure, he killed Klint, but he killed him with a katana, while the rest of the Professor's victims died of bite wounds. The game answers with the same Klint pedestal logic as before, but I think it should be because Barok and the judiciary are racist.
It's such a simple change, and yet it makes Barok's story so much better from a narrative and sociopolitical standpoint. Barok prides himself on seeking the truth, a deeply heroic quality in Ace Attorney. So the fact that his own prejudice, something he didn't even care to question for his great friend Genshin Asogi ("one of the good ones" in this scenario), caused the obfuscation of the truth would be devastating, and that devastation being the end of his bigotry would stay in line with the heavily character-focused writing of Ace Attorney and yield a much better message in addition of "racism is bad": societal biases left unexamined can blind us to reality, leading us to make awful mistakes that go against our core principles.
It also has a bunch of additional perks: Seishiro's anger would become additionally relatable for many POC, it would be a great and honestly ballsy commentary on law enforcement to make for the most popular VN series, it would create a nice parallel with Soseki Natsume's arrest, and it would add an interesting touch to Stronghart's characterization, what with him being racist (and a well-written racist at that) in the games already, but also becoming aware of said racism in others and using that to his benefit in our version.
Anyway, don't let the multiple paragraphs of criticism fool you, I'm making this post because I love these games to death

Hermit a day May - Day 16 - Wels!
Man, Wels. What a guy, it was in his Patreon Discord server one year ago that I saw mod Luna posting about the event for the first time. I shared it all over discord drew a bunch of Hermits and the rest is story.
I am happy that we are here again! Wels is one of my favorite Hermits and for his day I decided to put him in the same scenarios as Xisuma and Jevin's drawings. I guess some of my hermits are partying!

Redacted Boi Social Media Headcanons
Vincent only really uses Instagram, but is required by the Department to have it private because his human name is legally missing-presumed-dead and his face has a risk of being recognized if someone from his human life stumbled upon his Instagram. That said, he doesn't really screen people who request to follow him
Darlin' and Sam don't use any social medias. Darlin' has a Facebook from teenage years, but they deactivated it. But not fully deleted, so they can still be tagged in all the group photos posted to the pack page. In high school, Darlin' was the person who got a lot of unsolicited DMs because they were hot but they hate attention so they blocked everyone but their pack and deactivated. Darlin' reluctantly keeps their Discord for the pack server
David hates social media. He maintains the pack's private Facebook group and Discord server (though the latter is really more Asher's job, David's just in charge) but will not touch anything else. David's favorite social media is YouTube because he can lookup tutorials for anything and not have to ask anyone for help
Milo's a borderline Instagram influencer. He's got a gazillion followers (who all think he's hot, and he is). His Instagram is directly linked to his Facebook, so every picture and caption he puts on IG gets automatically posted to FB too
Marie comments only on Milo's Facebook (she has and kinda uses IG, but doesn't comment). She's the one that will leave the heartfelt comments with "Call me" at the end. She knows that's a meme among younger people that their older relatives leave "what a beautiful couple. Call me" comments, but she does it anyway. And guess what? She does it because it works. MilošŸ‘ isšŸ‘ašŸ‘Mama'sšŸ‘BoyšŸ‘ and he will call her when she leaves those comments
Asher doesn't use social media much, but is perpetually on Discord. He mods the pack's server, and like 6 others just for fun. He does post lots of pictures of Babe and selfies of the two of them together on the pack's Facebook though
Damien used to get into arguments on Twitter with randos. Huxley thinks it's funny to pull them up from when Damien was a teenager
Huxley was never much into most social medias but I like to think he'd be like that one TikTok dude who pops up on my Tumblr dash occasionally who explains how to do calisthenics and other workout stuff in a really simple, easy, modified way for people who are just getting started. People started following him because he's hot, and then realized he's actually like the nicest dude and doesn't know he's popular
Lasko's a Tumblr boy. I'm not taking constructive criticism on this
Gavin refuses to get an Instagram because he knows he'd get too addicted to it. He knows he's ridiculously good-looking and would amass a following supernaturally fast, and that's why he won't. But he has his old Facebook from when it first started to be popular. He got rid of all his old friends list and now just has Freelancer, Huxley, Lasko, Damien, and a handful of d(a)emon friends who also have Facebooks like Crux
Avior doesn't have any social media at all
Neither does Caelum and Gavin and Freelancer have decided not to expose him to the negativity of the internet
Vega refuses
Cam keeps a few things for professional purposes, but doesn't use them much
Guy is a Tumblrina. Guy is a Tumblrina. Guy is a Tumblrina. Guy is
Aaron's favorite is LinkedIn. This is a joke.
Elliott uses Pinterest a lot for aesthetic inspiration for dreams. He doesn't use much else
Blake is on like every social media all the time. Mostly for CloseKnit. But he also stalked Bestie from afar for a long time
James had to get rid of all of his when his job started getting more secretive and he had to have limited contact with the rest of the world
Morgan doesn't have any social media just as a way to keep himself and his magic safe. The Department protections didn't require it, but he thought it was for the best
Porter totally isn't jealous that Vincent has a higher IG follower count than him and his account isn't even private. He's always trailing like 20 behind

Do you have any favorite BG3 mods you'd recommend?
yes!
mooost of the mods i've got are appearances only
this one that removes makeup from karlach, lae'zel, and shadowheart
this one that removes the dudes' abs
this one that makes body type 4 (ie halsin) fatter
this one that makes the title screen say baldur's gay
this one that gives gale a lovely little updo
this one that gives wyll his own unique hairstyle, a longer version of his vanilla hair with golden accents
these ones that make gale, astarion, and shadowheart a bit older
this one that puts JUICY on the back of gortash's coat
this one that make wyll's devil transformation more comprehensive, giving him pointy ears+teeth and a tail
this one that allows you to make any piece of equipment take on the appearance of another. very useful for when your best gear looks kinda ugly (looking at you, potent robe)
for stuff that isn't just aesthetics
backpacks! adds functional + visual backpacks. a dependency for this mod also adds arrow quivers.
CAMP EVENT NOTIFICATIONS. this thing is a godsend. it lets you know whenever you've got a long rest event upcoming, so you can make sure to never miss out on one!
show approval ratings in dialogue. adds, at the end of dialogue choices, what approval changes will happen with your companions (ie astarion -1, wyll +1, along those lines). very useful, and can offer some neat insight into the characters without diving into datamined dialogue
batmode. in the epilogue, ascended!astarion gets a bat polymorph. this gives regular astarion the bat polymorph
phb dragonborn breath weapon. tweaks the dragonborn breath weapon a little bit to bring it more in line with the 5e version, most notably making it per short rest vice long rest
that's most of what i have installed.

Out in the desert, no one can find you... (Hex Tiles 1)
A sharp wind whistles through the desert dunes, bringing no reprieve to the travelers following the thin paths left out in the sand. Don't drink from the river ā€”Ā the plants that grow along its shores contain toxins that could leave a grown man coughing up blood, and chemical spills float through the current. A faraway road carries the rare drone-tank, long abandoned from any sort of human use.
Tumblr media
My newest hobby, to distract myself on months when the purse is a bit too tight to be buying plastic crack from Games Workshop, is to build modular hex tiles! It's super easy ā€”Ā I pick up a hundred of these wooden MDF tiles from Amazon for $10 (they're advertised as 2", but they're 1.75" from tip to tip, and each side is 1"), grab any spare craft supplies I have lying around, and get to work! They're super quick (this first batch of one hundred took me around a week) and they open the door to a lot of cool experimentation. A lot of this is inspired by the work of u/Marcus_Machiavelli over on Reddit, who makes these fantastic modular hive city components that I hope to someday be able to emulate.Ā 
I'm making these for two purposes, neither of which I've put in practice yet but I'm hoping to get to do at some point. They're for:
Any mass-battle games played at 6mm. This could also work for Adeptus Titanicus or the upcoming Epic reboot that Games Workshop is working on.Ā 
Tactical TTRPGs like Lancer that are played with large beings, who can operate on a 6mm scale.
Once I get some games in with them, I'm sure I'll encounter future problems and reassess how I approach them. But for now, this is what I've got!
I Hate Sand
Tumblr media
The first set of tiles I made, to serve as the backdrop for the rest of them, are these sand tiles. I chose to make this a desert (and thus make a bunch of sand tiles) because I already had some sand lying around, and because it's really cheap and easy to work with. Be careful though! Anakin was right; sand sucks. Try and pick up a finer grain than what I went with, apply the sand in a more-controlled location than I did, and secure it better than I did too. But here's how I did them:
Coat the surface of the hex with a mix of PVA glue and water.
Sprinkle on a light dusting of gravel or small rocks.
Apply a thick coat of sand on top of the gravel.
Knock off excess sand and recycle it for next time.
Spray with 1-2 layers of varnish. (I would recommend a sealant instead, but I didn't have any at the time)
Tumblr media
For the ones with little paths on them, I painted the path on with White before applying the gravel or sand, and it shows through well enough! The paths are unnecessary ā€”Ā they're a fun experiment, but I don't think I'll be making more of them in the future.
The Gurgling Creek
Tumblr media
Making the river tiles was a bit more involved, but still pretty easy. The method I came up with I think looks a lot better than just painting on water, and is a lot easier to work with than resin or water effects.Ā 
Use some kind of texture gel to build up the riverbanks, trying to have them end around 1/4" on the sides of the tiles where you want your river to connect.
Paint a strip Black where you want the river to flow, running from one edge to another.
Apply sand as before, everywhere except where you painted the black. (If you're worried about fucking this up, you can swap the order)
Varnish (or use sealant) as before.Ā 
Take some gloss mod podge and mix it with a light blue paint, and apply in large goopy quantities everywhere you want water to be. Leave overnight to dry. (If you want the river to be less cloudy, apply many thin coats of mod podge instead, letting each layer dry before applying the next)
As an extra, stipple green along the edges of the water and use a dark green wash to create patches of vegetation.
The river pieces are my favorites, and I'm the most proud of them. The tiny bridge was a thin strip of balsa wood, painted white and then washed black. It turned out fine.
Tumblr media
I did a solid mix of straight river pieces and curving river pieces. If I was going to do it again I'd make more curving pieces than straight river pieces, because the curving ones make more sense for how rivers work.
The Road To Nowhere
Tumblr media
These road tiles turned out really well, perfect for a run-down highway in the middle of nowhere. Here's how I made them:
Take a piece of corkboard and cut it down to be 1.75" long and 1" wide.
Glue it on a hex with the two edges of the corkboard touching two sides of the hex.
Go at the edges with a knife, making it all worn down and busted up.
In some of these spots, I fucked up and glued the corkboard on wrong. To fix that, break off a chunk and reposition it so it'll connect correctly. This will look like a big fat crack in the middle of the road, which is perfect.
Coat in a layer of mod podge or PVA glue. Leave to dry.
Once dry, paint the cork entirely Gray.
Drybrush White onto the corkboard, focusing on the edges and exposed spots.
Paint two thin yellow lines along the middle of the road. (These are optional, but they do a lot to make the 6mm scale convincing)
Apply sand, as before, onto the ground and up the sides of the road, so it looks like the road is emerging from the sand. Maybe apply some sand in a couple spots in the cracks to make it look like the sand has gotten in there.
Varnish and/or sealant, as before.
Apply a Black wash to the road. (There's a lot of tricks here! If you want the yellow stripes to be more vibrant, you can only paint them on after the first black wash. You can also target spots of sand on the road to make it look like it's asphalt runoff, soaking black into the cracks.)
Apply a second Black wash to the road.Ā 
The bridge was a bit more complicated, and took some finicky positioning and a trip to Kung-Fu Tea.
Tumblr media
Take a boba tea straw and cut it into 1" segments, then cut them in half, gluing them to the middle of the hex as culverts.
Take corkboard and glue it over the culverts, bending it so it meets the two edges you want the bridge to run along. If it breaks, that's okay ā€”Ā this is a crumbling, middle-of-nowhere bridge.
Use texture gel and spare corkboard to fill in the gaps.
Use texture gel to define the steep edges of the river. Apply a little bit in between the culverts.
Do all the road steps to the road part of the bridge, and all the river steps to the river part of the bridge.
Tumblr media
I'm exceedingly proud of the bridge hex. It turned out perfectly, and feels very emblematic of what I want this project to be like.
Why You, Too, Should Make 6mm Terrain
6mm terrain is amazing to make. Mistakes look like part of the landscape or the brain smudges them over due to the small size, and small changes look like fascinating little details. It really opens the imaginative space and I absolutely adore working at this scale. Plus I'm developing a ton of experience with various materials I've never worked with before, so I get to enjoy the triumph of carving foam or corkboard. It rules! I might even try to make a 28mm bridge after the success I had making a 6mm one.
My future plans for this project include cliffs, craters, 3D-printed shantytowns, and overpasses. But all that is for a later date ā€”Ā for now I'm gonna rest on my laurels, and spend the rest of the evening reconfiguring various tile combinations and cackling like a mad scientist.

I'm done with Marvel. You killed my favorite character and I have no reason to stay.
Posting here since I'm unable to discuss it on reddit. The sub apparently only allows you to praise the show. You're never allowed to complain about anything.
Here's the post I put on reddit that got removed by the mods with zero explanation (aka they don't want anyone to criticize the show in any way, shape, or form)
Part 1:
The ONE thing they MUST NOT do was kill Agatha. And what did they do? Kill her. Absolutely there is no way to make a ghost interesting. She's going to have a few cameos and quips here and there and that's it.
I'm also pissed about the Road being totally fake. It makes no sense Billy can call trials into being like that when he doesn't even know how Taro works that well or anything else. It was fine to think Billy and other coven members were influencing the Road, but to say Billy 100% created it is ridiculous. And they could have easily had the Road never being summoned by Agatha before WITHOUT the Road being fake. They literally took a badass character like Agatha from WandavisionĀ (who had the Darkhold etc)Ā and turned her into someone who just wandered thru the woods with no food or money and never actually did anything cool like survive the real Witch's Road. They totally diminished her and now she's even further diminshed because she's a talking hologram from now on!
I liked the trial where Agatha helps Billy remember how he saved Tommy. I liked Billy zapping Agatha to restore her power. I hated most of everything from the moment Agatha died.
I kept thinkingĀ "surely Billy will resurrect her somehow? They won't leave her a talking hologram will they?"
UGH!! Such a waste of a great actress who could have done more in the future!
Most of Episode 8 was great like the rest of the series. Episode 9 can go die in a trash can. The heartwarming scenes with Agatha and her son were nice, but the rest of Episode 9 was garbage.
Part 2:
You cannot make this character work as a hologram. Just not going to happen. Thatā€™s a cameo role.
Iā€™m so pissed we got so little backstory on her and it was right at the very end. Iā€™m so pissed she got so little screentime in her own show overall. 9 episodes is too short to do much of anything, especially if youā€™re going to try to use only 9 episodes to flush out so many characters. Nobody got much screentime or backstory because there were so few episodes, but it really hurt Agatha because she has the most backstory that should have been explored. Agatha is not a starving peasant in the woods who only feeds like a parasite. Sheā€™s a badass, clever witch who loves knowledge and loves the craft and wants to know everything she can about it and wants to live a full life. Living in the woods as a beggar is not a full life.
The Road should have been real (heavily influenced by Billy and the other witches in the coven) but still REAL. Agatha should have been a survivor of the Road in the past. It should have been how she got the Darkhold for example. And she still could have fake-summoned the Road the rest of the time in order to trick covens.
For the ending, Agatha should have remained alive. Either she goes on the journey with Billy (and thinks sheā€™s going to sneakily drain a few witches along the way) OR Billy finds a way to chain her power so she canā€™t drain others without his permission. No hologram ghost!!
Agatha was a really cool character in Wandavision and for most of Agatha All Along. They totally diminished her into a forest beggar parasite in episode 9.
P.S. before the subreddit mods deleted my post, someone was able to comment that Agatha manages to get her body back in the comics. So there's a tiny grain of hope. But in the meantime, if they even use her at all, holograms SUCK! She might as well be a disembodied voice at this point.
View-bombing the show is frustrating. But the other side is manipulating too. They aren't allowing any posts that criticize the show at all. There's a giant hole in my heart right now where Agatha Harkness used to be, but I'm supposed to "praise" and "cheer" the direction the show as taken because that's the allowed narrative.

The Next 100 Years
The day was clear and bright, and dappled summer sunlight shone through the leaves as they rustled gently in the breeze. Billy whistled a cheerful tune as he made his way down the sidewalk, arms laden with bags filled with various lunch orders.
Finally, he ducked through a tall wrought-iron gate, nodding to the groundskeeper before following the well-worn path to his destination.
"Afternoon, ladies!" He called out in greeting. "Bet you thought I forgot about today, huh? Well, you know I could never let you guys down."
Maybe his knees creaked a little, but he ignored that as he settled himself in front of the stone monument that marked the grave of the other Cunning Hares.
...The closest thing to an actual family that he'd ever had...
"Aaaand here you go..."
A burger for Anby.
Nicole's favorite noodle bowl.
Fried mackerel for Nekomiya.
And three cans of cola, though he hoped that Nicole didn't mind the fact that it wasn't her preferred brand. That company had gone under fifty years ago, after all.
Then, sitting back on his heels. Billy vented a sigh and shuttered his optics for a moment, imagining that he was literally anywhere else, and that his girls were there with him. Maybe they were at the park, relaxing under a tree. Or maybe it was Lumina Square, weaving through the hustle and bustle.
Or maybe they were at home, sprawled across that old broken-down couch in a comfortable heap while someone's favorite movie played on the TV.
But he couldn't hide in those memories forever.
"...I miss you guys. But you probably already know that, huh?" A sad smile colored his voice as he reached out to brush some dust from the monument. "Sometimes it's hard to believe that so much time has passed since I last got to talk to any of you. It's been, what? Sixty years, this year? And sometimes I still feel like you're all gonna be there when I get home at night..."
He vented another soft sigh, resting his hands on his knees.
"I wonder if you can see it - how New Eridu gets bigger and brighter every year. With no more Hollows, there's not much left to keep it from growing. To keep the whole world from growing..."
And we did that. Or, well, we helped, at least.
"I wish I could say that there was much to talk about this year, but... it's actually been pretty quiet. I think you all would enjoy it, honestly. Business has been great - bet that makes you happy, huh, Nicole? I thought it might. Oh! That new shopping mall Belabog was building last year finally opened last week. There's a new Random Play there - the biggest one yet! Heh... Wise would probably hate it, it looks all slick and high-tech, nothing like the original store... but I think it's pretty cool. And you'll never guess who's got one of the prime spots in the food court! That place is gonna put all the little Chops through college..."
He let out a weak little laugh.
"...There's a mural, too. Man, I wish you guys could see it, it's a lot cooler than the one they made for the Centennial celebration. We're in it! And we - we look like real heroes..."
Lifting one hand, he pressed his palm to his faceplate, and let his shoulders tremble quietly for a minute.
Maybe next year would be the year someone would finally come out with a mod that would let him cry.
Eventually, though...
"...I really wish I could stay longer, but I've still gotta swing by and say hi to a few more people before I head in for my tune-up. You girls enjoy your lunch, okay? If things aren't too busy, I'll try to swing by again soon..."
Once more ignoring the creaking in his knees, Billy rose to his feet, and brushed his fingertips fondly across the top of the monument with a smile, before continuing on his rounds.
~~~
The years were merciless, each one more so than the last.
Even with Belabog running support, there was only so far his component parts could be pushed before they gave out. Only so many times pieces of him could be repaired before they needed to be replaced.
Only so many times he could watch another piece of himself be disconnected and swapped out for something newer.
He couldn't hide it any longer - for the first time in his very.
Very.
Very long life...
Billy was tired.
Not the tired that came from staying up late to watch his favorite soap operas. Not even the kind of tired that came from chasing a kid through a Hollow until he thought his air filters might blow and his knees might give out.
No, he was tired-tired. The kind of tired that came from burying everyone he'd ever loved, one by one by one, while he somehow remained.
And remained.
And remained.
Theoretically, with consistent tech support, he could have lived long enough to see the Hollows pass from living memory and into ancient history. Theoretically, he could have kept going indefinitely, if he just kept replacing himself over and over again.
Every last bit of him had been replaced at least half a dozen times over by now... except for one part: his brain module. The part of him that was the most "him." The part that held every program, every memory file, everything he'd ever experienced was in there, and... he was afraid to replace it. Afraid that, even if he downloaded everything to a shiny new unit, he would still lose something, maybe something important.
Like the weight of Anby's head resting on his shoulder, whenever she fell asleep mid-movie night.
The way Nicole's eyes sparkled when she was excited, or flashed when she was angry.
The way Nekomiya's ears twitched at the sound of a bird singing.
Belle's laugh. Wise's smile. Lycaon's measured footsteps. Corin's anxious little stammers.
Rina. Ellen Joe. Koleda. Anton. Grace. Ben. Everyone.
He couldn't bear the thought of losing even a single nanosecond of any of it.
So he just... never risked it.
"Man, when was the last time you updated your CPU?" The maintenance tech handling his tune-up asked. "This hardware in ancient."
"Eh... it's been a while," he half-shrugged in response. "It's no big deal, it still works just fine."
The tech didn't seem convinced. "How's your boot time?"
"Same as it's been for the past hundred years... maaaaybe a little bit slower? I don't really pay too much attention anymore."
"Do you wanna schedule a replacement? Or maybe I could just see about fine-tuning it a little, maybe squeezing a few more months out of it so you can weigh your options...?"
Billy paused, and thought it over.
"...Nah, it's all right. I mean, it's lasted me this long, right?"
"You sure?"
"Yeah, I'm sure." He smiled. "Whatever happens, happens. It's okay."
"Well, if you change your mind, just gimme a call and I'll get you in ASAP."
"Thanks."
The drive home seemed extra lonely that night, and his apartment felt extra empty when he pushed the door open.
~~~
Slowly, bit by bit, byte by byte, everything slowed to a crawl.
Days bled into weeks into months and soon...
[Hey, Fairy?]
[Yes, Billy Kid?]
He vented a sigh. Tried to, at least, out of habit if nothing else.
[I keep telling you, it's just - ahh, I guess it doesn't really matter. Can I ask a favor?]
[Of course.]
[I know it's a lot to ask, but... when I finally shut down, can you make sure my brain module is mulched and interred with the other Hares? I don't care about the rest of me, I just...]
[...I understand. Yes, I can do this for you, Billy.]
[...Thanks.]
[You are welcome.]
He let his head fall back against the couch cushions, resting his arm across his midsection. There was a show playing on the television, but he wasn't paying enough attention to have said what it was. It was just pleasant background noise, something to drown out the sounds of his body struggling harder with each passing week.
Billy shuttered his optics and let himself go slack, feeling the tension drain from his limbs.
His whole body, which had previously felt indescribably heavy, suddenly felt so much lighter, like passing out of a Hollow and into the open air beyond.
A sudden pounding on his door had him jerking awake to liquid golden sunlight pouring in through the window and the sound of voices down the hall.
"Billy, come on already! Wake up! We've been waiting on you forever!"
"!!!" Suddenly wide awake, he lurched up out of bed, nearly tripping over his own two feet as he scrambled to the door; he didn't even think to grab his jacket before flinging the door open and scooping Nicole up into a tight hug. "Boss-!!!"
"Hey-!" She squeaked indignantly, squirming and smacking at his side; "you are cold! Did you seriously sleep without a blanket again?! Put me down and go put on a shirt or something!"
"Ah, sorry, boss!" With a sheepish laugh, he set her back on her feet and reached up to run his fingers through his hair. "Guess I got a little wound up, huh? I had this weird dream..."
"Well you can tell everyone about it later. Hurry up and get dressed, it's time for our yearly lunch meetup and I don't want to be late!"
"Right, right, sorry! I almost forgot...!"
Snagging his jacket off the back of his gaming chair, he shrugged into it as he slipped on his sneakers.
Then, after taking a moment to make sure his hair was neat, he hurried after her, to where the rest of his family was waiting.

Hey everyone! Hope you had a fun Hermitober and are looking forward to a great rest of the holiday season. Now, itā€™s been a while since the poll, but I have another favor to ask.
I need your favorite clips (each one minute or shorter) of Hermits playing minigames. That could be Decked Out, TCG, or any of the dozens of smaller minigames the Hermits have made inā€¦ letā€™s say Seasons 8 and 9. I want to see all the Hermits represented, so donā€™t hold back! Sifting through submitted content is what Iā€™m good at, lol.
You can get your clips to me by submitting them directly to this blog or by posting them and tagging @hermitadaymay. While I canā€™t tell you exactly what Iā€™m up to yet, I can promise itā€™ll be worth the effort! Thanks, everyone!
After this, we should be pretty set (other than all the graphic making Iā€™ve been putting offā€¦) so barring anything surprising, my next update should be a big one in March.
See you then!
-Mod Luna

various headcanons of tr characters !
when ran asks you to be his s/o he gifts you gloves. while u may not think anything of it other then his love languages being gift giving. he's asking you to be his forever. they're symbolism that while the gloves would protect your hands, he would protect you.
imagine giving senju one of those sanrio hats that have velcro at the bottom ,, so they stay on ,, yknow ,, but she is so thrilled. so she wears it 24/7
if you say or do something stupid, hanma won't let it go. period. it will become an inside joke, something he uses to see u laugh, also he will do that with things he's done too. use 'em as stories to cheer u up.
emma sano would be so aggressively caring ,, but in the cutest way ever. cutely aggressive texts urging you to drink some water, eat something and get rest before she rushes over to do it for you !
thinking about petshop trio ,, chifuyu and kazutora eventually push baji to get a piercing ,, he ends up getting an industrial ,, sbsjs. it shows when he pulls his hair up also, chifuyu has considered a nose piercing. he likes simple studs.
sanzu deals with mania and or hypomania. for him they can be really scary because he also uses drugs and that heightens how he feels and emotions during that time. he calls it 'madness episodes', after his episode is over (for him they last a while. anywhere from a week to almost 4 weeks) it takes a while to get him calm. even after it ends. haruchiyo craves being close to you, sharing your warmth and inhaling your scent. it calms his nerves like an anesthetic. please indulge him.
kakucho likes chocolate chip waffles. like he just doesn't like pancakes for some reason. you start to notice a pattern when he makes waffles in the morning on his days off. he only eats his choco chip ones. maybe strawberries on top.
when hanma wakes up (whenever his ass does) I think he has like leftover eyeliner smudged around his eyes ,, also playing playing his long fingers and tracing his tattoos ugh
shinichiro with an s/o who's slightly taller but their love language is physical affection. they give minimal acts of affection though. hand holding, hugs. etc. one of shins fav acts of affection is when his s/o ruffles his hair. he'll get all flustered with warm tinted cheeks, eyes squinted and a goofy smile on his face. he's so cute :(
if I saw south, I'd try n hang off his arm ,, I just think it would be funny I also think he's a fan of play fighting ,, i think he will ruffle tour hair and pick you up like a cat ,, by the scruff of ur hoodie
mikey's texts that may not make sense. the typing looks like 2007 scene tumblr, all lowercase with words shortened so bad it doesn't make sense and faces like [:(, XD, :p] his texts look like ; 'hiii bby !!! im almst ther jst wait a bit kay !!!! I promise u he's abt to jump on his bike and visit u, or calls where he's just about to fall asleep but tried his hardest to stay awake for you so he can heat ur voice ,, even though that makes him feel even calmer. it's gonna put him to sleep
koko has money, but like he has nice shit, he takes this nice, modded car, he goes around at night, driving to get a break from the bonten trio shit ,, playing around with his loud ass engine revving it up. then goes on his spotify premium with one of his favorite playlists
for stay home dates mitsuya sets up his record player to play old, classics and sway his partner around when they aren't feeling so good to cheer them up :(
sleeping/nap dates with mikey are a staple ! no matter if you're immersed on a book or your scholastic duties, or even cooking he will pull you for a nap.
sanzu plays around with tarot cards and gives readings when he's completely high or drunk. the other executives pay no mind to it, but when he sobers up and asks the execs what he said about the cards and goes 'yeah, that sounds just about right, but just this and that too." the execs look blown out of their mind and slightly scared that he remembers

Animal crossing new horizons headcanons for the nerd bunch
Steph
- normcore I think that's what people call it but it's basically just like. a normal town with no specific style. but her house is decorated to her liking and she has her villager's home in a forest she planted herself. she also has mods and she has just a part near the top of her island where there's just a shit ton of bells just dropped on the floor.
-steph definitely gives me black tulip door wreath vibes.
-steph's favorite villager is cherry and she changed cherry's catchphrase to 'bitch' so now she says stuff like "Yeah, go for it, bitch. This oughta be goodā€¦ā€™
-steph has a room in her house purely for 'summonings' after she found out if you combine a specific wall and flooring you can create a summoning circle.
-steph refuses to pay tom nook, so her house isn't upgraded that much.
-steph set up a small space in her island for the nerds to fool around in whenever they visited. that space now mostly consists of pit falls and stumps. someone also left a switch there and steph didn't even try to figure out who put it there and just kept it as decor for her house. also Steph has green mums outside her house which she says is supposed to be a weed farm.
Grace
-grace definitely has meticulously designed her island and it's fairycore. rip star fragment trees grace would have loved those. her island has a shit ton of pink tulips everywhere too. grace has a part of her island which is just a forest with a lot of flowers. she also has those like custom design paintings in said forest that read 'god is good' or some shit and she thinks every island should have a god forest.
-grace has the pink wedding event door thingy.
-grace has two tricycles she put outside of nook's cranny that she pretends belong to timmy and tommy
-favorite villager is ruby sorry
-grace loves the wedding event items and her island and house are full of them
Ruth
-her island is a mess to me lmao. her island tune is the iconic part in careless whisper and tiffany is her favorite villager. none of her island is actually decorated btw. and she constantly wears one of those custom design dresses that make it look like the villager has a bikini. ruth collects gyroids after she was taught how to get them by Richie. she just collects the little guys and has them outside her airport as a welcome thingy. ruth uses the effects feature a lot, mainly putting hearts on stuff. only decorating Ruth really did on her island is make a rainbow flower field which she and the rest of the nerds call the gay flower trail. ruth seems to be eternally broke. Richie offers her money and she accepts and ten minutes later she somehow managed to waste it all on the most useless decor
Richie
-his island is littered with references to animes. he has two godzilla statues outside his house. has definitely gotten much more advancements than the others. wishes he could have started out on a modded island but it's too late. his house is made to be his dream home and his room has custom designs of anime posters on the walls. he completed his museum and probably has most furniture items in his catalog. he also completed happy home designer and has a lot of amiibos. richie redecorated all of his villager's homes, both interior and exterior. richie made a crab rave on his beach. richie also collects gyroids and uses them to decorate. he also likes setting up little songs with them for specific rooms in his house.
richie's island flag is this.
Tumblr media
Pete
-somehow the one with the best looking island. it's five stars somehow and each villager gets custom personalized yards. pete is really into flower breeding. he's also trying to complete the museum but keeps forgetting to catch some seasonal creatures and fish. pete NEVER skips blather's fun facts. in fact he writes all of them down and annoys Ruth and Richie with them. he's even memorized some for the more common fish and bugs that especially pissed Richie off when he was collecting everything (like sea basses)
petes house has the highest happy home academy rating

Fallout fans are contrarians
One of the things that I have noticed is that the fallout fandom is contrarian. Whatever is the newest release is awful; that the previous release was actually the best. I began noticing this when FalloutNV came out. It immediately became my favorite. But the internet had different ideas at the time. People ragged on it for how few combat encounters there were. They didn't like how there were much less random encounters and locations to explore that you just stumbled on. They thought the narrative was too preachy, and that a lot of the quests involved too much talking.
I looked into it, and the same thing happened when fallout 3 came out. Old players didn't like how it had been converted into a 3d game with fps gameplay. They didn't like the reused enemies and factions. Thing is? Forums prior to the release of fallout 3 were often fantasizing about it becoming a 3d game, with real time combat.
Fast forward to the fallout 4 release, almost everyone is saying that falloutNV is the best game. They hate the new features; the settlement building, the faction building of the minutemen, how the focus was put more on the locations and gunplay. These are fair criticisms. What isn't is claiming that bethesda wasn't listening to the fans.
They brought in the polished companions that were in falloutNV and experimented with in skyrim (Serana). The settlement system? It was based on one of the most popular fallout mods, called Real Time Settler, by Arkoola. They added in the survival mechanics, though they botched it at first, that were popular in both modding and in fallout nv. The Automotron DLC was clearly based on the Robco Certified mod for fallout3. Additionally, one of the most popular mods for fallout 3 was Mothership Zeta Crew. A dlc sized mod based entirely around building a new faction from the ground up. What do you do with the minutemen? Build a faction from the ground up.
I think a lot of the criticism is valid. But a lot also comes from the simple fact that the fanbase is simply contrarian. They ask for features, create mods, and then they are integrated into the next release. Then the fans rebel. What was once hated becomes beloved, and what was once loved is now vilified.
For my part; I do love fallout 4. It is a fun game, and IS a proper rpg. There are a lot of ways to express your character through gameplay. I don't love the voiced protagonist, and I think the simplification of the dialogue structure was a mistake. (I dont have any problem reading dialogue. I love morrowind after all). The survival mode adds a lot of tension and fixes a lot of the narrative pacing issues by introducing a need to take things slower and more carefully. I like how you unlock in-world fast travel options by engaging in the main quest, which actually is useful since you cant do the normal fast-travel during survival mode. I like building and decorating a house. If you build up the settlements, you can take the minutemen from a footnote, to a major faction that you can call on almost anywhere on the map. I like building settlements; It can be a city, a small trading post, an industrial center, a farm, or just a small port-of-call for you to rest and recuperate from your adventures. The perk system allows you to define your character with a lot of unique builds that play extremely differently. The dialogue system supports using perks... Though it is vastly underutilized in the vanilla game.
Do I think it is a perfect game? Of course not. I have plenty of criticism for it. However, it gets shit on a lot, and often in a way that is unfair or is laser focused on a very specific part. This lacks nuance.
Also, I am not a Bethesda Fanboy. This is explicitly not about Bethesda, but on one of their games. Death of the Author and all that.
