#why do jobs exist. why cant we all just vibe huh

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

why is job hunting.

that's it that's the post

[calehenituseappreciation]

Tommy thinking Sam Nook and Sam are two different people would lead to such funny senarios.

Especially if you apply this logic to everyone.

what if mexican dream and quackity are the same people and that was just him making fun of dream and making tommy laugh and tommy genuinely thinks dream killed mexican dream and that hes a different person

and when ranboo pretended to be killed by clarencio

he just doesnt realise

he thinks girl dream is someone else too

tubbo genuinely has a bunch of personalities and so he thinks theyre all different people (and also he doesnt realise theyre the same people a lot)

sam, in his normal voice: tommy do you have the- tommy, crying: what happened to sam nook?

sam proceeds to live as sam nook around tommy because he once tried to tell tommy sam nook isnt real and he started sobbing and so sam cant

sapnap, approaching sam on the site: hey sam can you do this for me? sam: su- tommy, running up: SAAAAAAM!? sam, in the sam nook voice: hello tommy! sapnap: wtf??? tommy: this is sam nook! :D have you met him? sapnap: what? thats just s- sam: shakes his head, behind tommy where he cant see sapnap: uhhhhh sam: takes out sword sapnap: h-hi sam nook! tommy: :D

sam is not the only person this happened to. 

tommy: technoblade???? techno, sneaking into l'manberg: uhhh techno, in a highpitched voice: no this is Clarencio tommy: the llama? techno, in high pitched voice: no the pig tommy: hmmm techno: sweats tommy: smiles brightly ok!!!! techno, under his breath: that worked??? tommy: wanna hang out with me? techno, in high piteched voice: i really need to go tommy: buttttttt :(

technoblade proceeds to have to pretend to be clarencio the pig and hang out with tommy all afternoon

phil, coming to check on techno: techno? techno, in a frilly pink dress, in a high pitched voice: hi tommy: phil!!!! have you met clarencio??? but not the llama!!! clarencio the pig!!! phil, holding back a laugh: is that so?

(defenitly happened before he got exiled, i refuse to change my mind)

everytime techno is caught he says hes clarencio (the pig) and tommy vouches for him each time and no one is able to bring themselves to tell him that clarencio (the pig) doesnt exist

sam nook, :handshake: clarencio the pic, :handshake:  mexican dream, (not girl dream) not being able to tell tommy their not real bc hed cry

IMAGINE IF TOMMY WAS GIVEN THE JOB OF LIKE BEING THE BORDER PEOPLE WHILE HE WAS WILBURS VICE BEFORE THE ELECTION AND PEOPLE WOULD JUST FAKE IDENTIES AND TOMMY WOULD JUST BELIVE EVERYONE

quackity: i demand to be allowed to join l'manberg! wilbur: ur american quackity: i shpould still be allowed! wilbur: just say your not, thats what everyone does quackity: what wilbur: just make a fake identity?? quackity: youre... the president???? wilbur: yeah and?? quackity: shouldnt you not be be endorsing that??? wilbur: i made tommy the border person. you think i care? quackity: sksksks quackity: still bad tho

the only one tommy never believes is dream, no matter what, he can just tell when someone is dream, like ya know those police dogs? the only reason he didnt realise girl dream was because girl dream is girl dream he thought it was just a dream thing

TOMMY THINKS BAD AND MONOCHROME BAD ARE TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE

monochrome bad: tommy tommy: whomst? bad: oh uh recolourfies tommy, screaming: WHAT THE FUCK

tommy doesnt have object permanence but for people

techno, while tommy is staying with him: leaves room tommy, crying: I had a big brother once, i dont remember him tho

phil leaves them and (while stabbing wilbur) tommy just doesnt realize its him until techno says "dad?"

quackity works at wendys and tommy goes there everyday but doesnt realise its quackity

tommy went there since the war ended

and at the time didnt realise tommy cant tell and so when he and tommy started a mafia and became friends he thought tommy knew who he was and tommy once suggested going to dennys and quackity is like 'oh my god' and tommy is like my friend works there!!! and then they go to the one quackity works at and quackity is like 'haha funny' and then tommy asks around and then turns to quackity sadly like "my friend isnt here today D:" and then quackity is like o h

tommy, towards sam, in sams house: sam!!!!!! sam, who was sleeping, in his normal voice: w-what? tommy: sam!!! :D sam: hey tommy yawns whyd you wake me up? tommy: sorry but i really needed to ask you a question!!! sam: did you want to ask me where sam nook is again? tommy: welll.. that too but!!! you should meet sam nook!!!! sam: what tommy: please please please sam: no go back what did you ask? tommy: you need to meet sam nook! i think you'd be friends!!! :D sam, internally: shit sam: uhhh i dont really think i should- tommy: pleaasee uses puppy eyes sam: sure sam, internally: why did i say yes????

sam then has to pretend to be sam and sam nook at the same time

tommy: you're gonna love sam nook sam!!!! sam: uhuh tommy: where is he? :( sam: uh maybe hes behind you tommy: turns around to look sam: runs to other side of tommy sam, in sam nook voice: hello tommy!!! tommy: sam nook! have you met sam??? hes right here!!! gestures to sam who has to run behind him again tommy: sam say hi!!! sam, panting, in normal voice: hi tommy: whyre you all out of breath and shit???

this,,, just continues for a while

quackity, watching this exchange, driunking juice: sucks to suck sam: you'd do the same quackity: no. mexican dream is dead lol tommy, only hearing the last part: cries i miss mexican dream quackity, feeling sad: uh- we can revive him maybe? tommy: wipes tears YEAH! sam, whispers to quackity: told you so quackity, hisses to sam : shut up

quackity then has to pretend to revive himself while running around also he has to steal another one of dreams masks

honestly in this au everyone would hear about what happened during exile and stab dream (while pretending to be other people because ig in this au tommy still thinks dream was once his friend and yeh)

tommy, after crying infront of sam nook and telling him what dream did to him: so.. sniffs do you have any more quests for me to do? sam nook: i have one more quest tommy, cheering up: what is it!! sam nook: for myself tommy, confused: what is it? sam nook, taking out a glock: homocide

insanebur: you want to know why no one listens to you tommy? tommy, pouting, on the verge of tears: What? insanebur, unable to finish, clutching his heart: your too cute

this is just au where tommy is baby huh

wilbur isnt mad schlatt exiled him- hes mad he exiled tommy

schlatt and dream are the only ones not affected by tommys baby vibes and thats their downfall

tommy just has to call everyone a nickname, once, and everyone is melted

niki and jack: tommy is the fault of all our probelms we should kill him puffy: he. bonk is bonk baby bonk niki and jack: look over at tommy tommy, with sam in the distance: cries to sam because he cant find sam nook niki and jack: okay... maybe we should be less... violent...

Sam rlly just went

sam: looks at tommyinnit sam: nothing bad will ever happen to this child ever again

huh?

I’ve named this au, au where hes baby ur honour

tommy: i had zero parents (who care) tommy, gestures to puffy and sam: NOW I HAVE TWOOOOOOO

insanebur: god i fucking hate everyone tommy: even me? insanebur: except you tommy

sam: I AM THE TOMMY GAURDIAN! GAURDIAN OF THE TOMMY! sam @ anyone who wants to hurt him: FUCK OFFF

tommy canoanically understands the animal crossing language

ranboo: i can speak enderman! tommy: well i can speak creeper

whenever tommy gets overwhelemed around sam he burys himself he asks sam to cover for him in creeper

okay thats enough of that

space

-very calm, most of the time doesn’t mind anything, but still does get a little nervous at times

-nobody knows why her eyes are always closed, (ara specified that her eyes look like a galaxy that can only be opened for a couple of seconds because if she opens them for more than a few seconds they’ll start to glitch, when others see it happening, it looks like the galaxy is becoming more like an image other than a real galaxy, parts of the galaxy become misplaced and reverted back to their original place quickly repeatedly (kinda like the select thing in paint, usually in the shape of the rectangular selection though) and parts of the galaxy turn into static and back very quickly and repeatedly. we she sees it happening her vision becomes the same as how other people see the galaxy when it starts glitching, randomly shifting from original place to different place, or from static back to normal, some ominous, glitchy sounds have been heard when this is happening aswell, (i thought of this because of a small dream(?) i had when i was in a certain state of almost about to fall asleep, maybe i was napping i dont really know, it was a strange dream, i dont remember much of it which is expected, i think it was something about discord and some sort of strange thing that had a little timer on it, and after it was done the thing it was in started glitching, the background it was in and even the button that used to be the timer was glitching, i heard some sounds that were glitching a little (it looked like those screens you see when someone’s streaming something on there,) and then i woke up, yeah kinda weird,)

-like eugene, cares for everyone! especially ara, since space herself is the one who helps ara through tough times

courtney

-gets bored alot, just wants to work on the difficult abnormalities

-really snarky

johnson

-a smartass

-yet still a little friendly if they trust you

-i’ll upgrade them soon dont worry (i have upgraded them/him dont worry)

,

Timezones Unsolved

General

- this is not like buzzfeed unsolved cuz I havent watched it and dont want to

- demons are like. These sort of evil things. They dont exist in hell cuz that's. Religion

- demons exist in another dimension that's like rlly chaotic. They exist to make the real world more chaotic. No one knows why. Not even the demons.

- the Biggest demon is shlatt. Ppl arent exactly sure if hes even real but he still has influence no matter what.

- shlatt has a number of underlings (one of which is mo) who try to cause chaos in the real world thru middle management.

- now. Ghosts. When people die, sometimes they die peacefully. Sometimes not. Ghost happened when people dont.

- sometimes ghosts come to peace and leave but some just wanna vibe irl. So they do.

Ok so humans (?)

Andy

-hes just like a dude. But hes cool

-the leaves on his head were, at first, just because he climbed through some bushes in the first video. They became part of his brand.

-once he got really popular, he got a beanie made with felt leaves on the top.

-he made a youtube channel a while ago. His first video was him exploring an abandoned warehouse. He got spooked by Bee, who was there, vibin.

-he edited it very good. It exploded. Ppl memed him.

-his channel, Ayap-Ghosts, went viral overnight. He went from tinyyyy lil baby channel to a cultural phenomenon literally in 24 hours.

-good thing he happens to be VERY good at editing and filming n stuff.

-though, however good he is at youtubing he is in this au, one dude cant keep a big youtube channel up for more than a month without burning out n dying, which brings us to

Mo

-ok, so now we have to define demons.

-I know this category said humans at the top. Shut up. Lemme talk.

-demons are made of two things and two things only. Stories and allegiance to shlatt.

-all demons have an original story (ie: some dude sees something creepy in the woods) and then once theyr created one of the shlatt underlings finds them and gets them in. Theres like facilities. Its actually rlly nice.

-so what's the problem with mo? Shlatt never found her.

-shes just. Hanging out in creepy places.

-the thing is, she pretty much passes for a human, (excluding the mask she cant take off) and because of that, she has to eat and stuff.

-so what job lets someone show their face rarely, encourages weirdness, and lets you keep a finger on the pulse of the demons?

-Ayap-ghosts editor.

-once she was fully created (which took about a month of retellings of the creepy girl in a bird mask (sidenote: probs just someone's Halloween costume)) she hung out for a while, waiting for someone to come get her, and when it became clear no one was gonna get here, she started realizing that she needed to eat.

-once she got really hungry, she found out she could get a job.

-and then andy posted the first video.

-she saw that he needed an editor/extra filmer, and she jumped on the opportunity, and just like. Drove over to his house and was like "ok I live here now"

-the thing with demons though, the more people retell and add to their story, the more powerful they become.

-Mo (and soph but I'll get to that later) is very very powerful. Ayap-ghosts has fan communities who tell their story and await their weekly uploads!

-though, a channel would be nothing without its content. Which brings us to

Ghosts and Demons

Bee

-when she first met andy, she was just chilling in a local warehouse, when this kid with leaves on his head (???) Just wandered in scared looking with a camera.

-she decided it would be very fun to torment him.

-she followed him around for a bit and then popped thru a wall. Very scary stuff.

-once he uploaded the video, she realized this could actually be really cool.

-she just like, went over to his house also. (Same night as mo)

-and was like "hey whaddup".

-andy freaked out at first but bee calmed him down. She offered to be part of the channel.

-also, smol tangent, ghosts (and demons) can look however they want, so bee and soph chose to look scary for the Views.

-so now, filming consists of bee, mo, and andy driving out to some spoooooky place ("this is bullshit I dont need cars I can float" "stfu bee the rest of us have corporeal forms")

-and then setting up some scary scenario for mo and andy to film. So Andy's fear is pretty much all a complete bit. Theyr all havin fun guys.

Soph

-demon

-bit of a high level one too, high up enough on the chain to have met shlatt personally once.

-she used to be not as high level though. At first she was just a lackey but! One day, shlatt heard of a very successful youtube channel.

-he sorta rifled thru his files and was like heres one! Hey soph get over here!

-soph got over there.

-he was like "go bother these kids" and she was like "ok"

-she got there to see a ghost, a sorta demon, and a human dude filming a spooky video

-so at first shes like "hm I know how to cause chaos" and destroys the film set.

-they just sorta laugh. A broken flim set is just as creepy as anything

-and she like "huh"

-and then she watches them. This is about the third video they've done together so they have a sorta rythm.

-and she realizes that their goals are the same!

-at the end of the video, she goes down and apologizes. And everyone, to her surprise is like "oh it's all cool"

-and then all of them sorta just arrange to meet once in a while and film! Soph shows up sorta rarely (demon business, yknow) but she still shows up regularly.

Misc

-theres no story is just these three are friends and they do videos.

-Andy's good at baking. I just decided this now. It fits w his charater idk.

-mo tried to help once. Mo is not good at baking.

-soph tells mo about the demon world. Mo still wants to be part of it but shes happy where she is.

-Andy is really scared in the first video, but not in any of the others. None of the others were sorta ""real"" even though the first wasnt either.

-theyr all just friends idk what else to do w this.

Symphogear, EP. 6

Last Time on Grand Theft Auto:

Tsubasa recovers from the world’s gayest coma as Hibiki trains her mind while putting aside such silly concepts as “the love of my life” and “literally being with my girlfriend.” After cooling Miku’s paranoia with her brand new washboard abs, Genjuro prepares the team for a pizza run across the city to deliver a dangerously hot pizza pie named Durandal. Chaos emerges as the delivery is intercepted by a rival pizza gang, lead by the nefarious Gremlin known as Yukine Chris. But, before the pizza could be claimed, dedicated pizza deliverywoman Hibiki not only steals it back, but eats it, harnessing the power of the pizza and unleashing cheesy pasta based chaos around the location.

Ryoko is so into it that she taps into her superpowers and protects Hibiki after she passes out. The delivery is considered a failure, and no tip is given.

And so, the journey continues...

Meanwhile, in this weird, tricked out mansion...

Chris meditates on some water metaphors of her own.

“that pacman colored freak took only touching it to activate a cheap ass french sword that gave her weird demon powers and its taken me YEARS to use this dumb stripper outfit and the funny cane that goes with it, what the FUCK man, what even is my life”

“maybe... maybe honeybaked hams ARE that powerful...”

“NO! turkey is the superior meat! it’s healthier, lower in fat, and way more tasty! fuck you! i’ll get my goddamned revenge!”

Chris begins musing about Fine’s motivations to capture Hibiki; during these, we’re treated to some brief image flashbacks of Chris’s life.

Suddenly, those jokes about food are a lot less funny.

It doesn’t take a genius to put two and two together as to why this young woman is helping a strange nudist dominatrix spread alien terror across the city of mumblednoises, Japan. She doesn’t really have many an option on the table. It’s either help the weird kinkster with her plans, or die.

Despite everything, she has a high opinion of Fine, for the same reasons someone might have a high opinion of a television show if it were the only show they were ever exposed to. She is deeply afraid of being alone again, because she has lived through such misery that the very thought of existing out in the cold again terrifies the shit out of her.

The Sun rises casually amidst Chris’s thoughts.

“ah shit. it just hit me. i literally have spent the entire night standing here instead of actually going the fuck to sleep. goddamnit.”

On such a devious metaphorical twist, Fine stands behind her as the Sun rises.

“yeah, jokes on you. i couldnt sleep for shit either. turns out, all nude, no blankets? in japan? real bad idea.”

“thats why i decided to GO GOTH, babey! whattaya think? do i give those witchy vibes, huh? real ‘black magic woman’ santana hours? feeling cute, gonna head out with the girls and summon satan in the woods kinda aesthetic looking shit? come on, be real with me. does this not look baller?”

“you look like morticia decided to go to the grocery store to buy some wonder bread, but other than that, its a step up from your usual pussy out attitude, so sure”

“you know i decided to get some brain cells on loan from Brain Cells R Us, and ive been thinking this solomon cane stuff is solomon lame. i dont need this dumb oversized harry potter cosplay prop to get shit done. also, murder is... sorta bad? im still trying to get the brain cell stuff down.”

“i can punch just as good as goody two shoes if not better.”

“lol go do it then champ, im gonna go cut down a forest of trees now”

And so, they both just kinda... stand there.

“QUACK, NEXT SCENE, QUACK”

Meanwhile, Tsubasa is rapidly trying to rehabilitate herself from her wounds like walking like a madman, her IV drip presumably filled with Taco Bell brand Doritos Locos Tacos super spicy nacho cheese. Taco Bell: Live Mas.

“im gonna clear every fucking taco bell in your goddamned memory, kanade”

“think outside the bun! wait, what? that was a taco bell slogan? ah fuck it, im dead. what nerd’s gonna try and correct me?”

“i would, kanade. i am that nerd.”

Tsubasa is hell bent to try and understand Kanade’s simple philosophy of helping others selflessly. Unfortunately, when Kanade died, she took all the brain cells between them in the process, so coming to this epiphany is a work in progress.

“listen its a fucking miracle you are 1. alive and 2. able to have your blood run on the garbage melted plastic taco bell tries to dupe people into believing is cheese so why dont you just lie down and think of better franchises to eat from”

“no! you dont understand! taco bell is a franchise of the PEOPLE! their meals are cheap and filling and- and the chicken quesadillas are of good quality for their price! i promised kanade- my vow to the death. taco bell... ergh... now and forever... i-”

“wait. my gay senses are tingling.”

It’s Hibiki, probably running track with Miku.

“oh yeah... her... i should probably apologize to her. about trying to kill her. and then letting her almost be kidnapped. and just giving her a general hard time about something that wasn’t explained to her in the slightest for months. she’s a good bean.”

Tsubasa proceeds to never canonically apologize to Hibiki throughout the entirety of all 4 seasons of Symphogear.

Look at em run. See, it’s a metaphor, because they haven’t communicated yet and they’re running from their problems! But they’re running towards Tsubasa, who is part of the representative problem these two share! Clearly literary genius.

It’s like someone went halfway into writing an NTR plotline and went “maybe this isn’t a good idea to market our songs on.”

Hibiki is still thinking about her Hellshake Yano moment with Durandal. Mainly how she nearly killed someone with it. Hibiki is very starkly in the “killing is bad, and wrong” camp of morality, a trait currently unique to her that she’ll wind up teaching literally everyone else she meets one way or another.

Some could argue the L stands for Lydian, and they’re wrong. It stands for Lesbian.

“that was one hell of a run, hibiki! im pooped! why dont we go to the locker room and call it a day, have a nice shower and just get some dinn-”

“this is the last straw.

i clean your plates. i cook your food. we eat, shit, shower, and sleep in the same FUCKING area, and this is how you repay me? huh? you think being your wife is easy shit, hibiki? half the damn time you’re running off like clark kent having food poisoning and the other half ive gotta babysit you, the emotional equivalent of a preteen clown, to make sure your life doesn’t self destruct harder than Atlantis sinking into the ocean. im done! i am DONE. im reopening my tinder, im slamming my ass BACK into okcupid, and im gonna date some CUTE ACADEMY GIRLS that treat me BETTER than this ABSOLUTE BETRAYAL OF HEART AND IM NOT CRYING I SWEAR ITS JUST THE SWEAT IN MY EYES AND HIBIKI HOW COULD YOU-”

“oh yeah, sure! hey, lemme just do a few more laps, ive just been feeling judgmental about myself and my figure, you know? gotta push myself further...”

“o-oh yeah, sure. no worries, ill wait for you. love you too, hibiki...”

The girls bathe together, as good friends typically do.

“hey you ever notice the showers here have like, weird psuedo-luxurious minipools to bathe in? like, how rich is this school?”

“whoever made this place is either rich or a pervert. or both, probably!”

Miku remarks that Hibiki has changed since she’s entered Lydian, in a manner most unheterosexual.

“oh FUCK you really DO have washboard abs now! ohhh my god.”

“damn, those abs were heavenly. let’s get pancakes later.”

I won’t screenshot it but something to note is that they actually wear each other’s corresponding underwear colors (or even, if you want to examine more closely, each other’s underwear). Here’s an equivalent scene to give you the mental image.

This is the face of someone who knows what they want and already have it. Such is the power of Kohinata Miku.

Meanwhile, Genjuro comes back from the funeral of the guy the Americans filled violently and with impunity.

“yo that all black look looks baller. i should borrow that look... id look pretty gothy in it.”

“ryoko i sympathize with your sharp, fashionista eye but this was for a funeral, i was paying my respects to the dead. thats the usual dress code.”

“didnt know they updated that. i remember back in my day, we just went in white garments and chanted in latin!”

“shit was fire. literally. lots of funeral pyres.”

“lmao ryoko buddy your larping sessions arent actual history”

“hey dont shit on larping around me. i used to be a professional larper while i was majoring in acting. helped really sell my career when i had to pretend to slay the Dark Lord Jyarloen atop the mountain of skulls in Hargobor after my family was killed by the Dark Army. asshole.”

“haha yeah, larping, thats cool yeah, i do that

i...

i larp.”

“oh yeah? you wanna join my larping session sometime then? we’re gonna do an ancient babylon plot thats inspired by some anime, itll be fun”

“.....................................im super into realism.”

“i know im dressed for a funeral but id like to not part ways with my dignity yet. besides, we’ve got serious shit to talk about. basically, we’re on the verge of getting shitcanned.”

As it turns out, the death of this politician removed the last obstacle of opposition to maintain the 2nd Division, as the average criticism against the 2nd Division is “why are we funding this mystery division when we don’t know what they do”. Of course, the sensible idea for an organization that defeats the Noise is to declassify it, given people of different jobs and positions have physically seen the Symphogear in action, but you know. “Oh no, the other governments will come after us” stick gets shaken.

“im in a union. i know my rights. you’re not taking my acting job here away from me.”

“im not going back to be a preschool teacher. its been ten year. the bites on my ankles still havent healed...”

“yeah man, shit sucks ass. i cant fund my adoption habits if im fired.”

Look at these cinematic parallels. Symphogear truly is a franchise made by someone living in 3030.

“worst part is the new minister is super into america. he’s a... westaboo.”

“a westaboo?”

“westaboo?”

“did he just unironically say westaboo”

“he said westaboo. oh my god. this is the hell timeline.”

“i mean people kept calling me that for worshipping all these fighting flicks so i guess it fit? i dont see the problem here”

Meanwhile, in Lydian Academy...

“so it hit me, right? we’re ALL girls. and we ALL sing. now, humor me a moment. what if... what if we’ve all been recruited to potentially be superheroes... through our singing? like, there’s no coincidence that all this shit happens around us, right? and a famous singer LIVES here? i saw the black cars outside! weird shit is happening here- im not even gonna eat the all you can eat bar anymore!”

“kathy there is literally no such thing as superheroes who sing. this place is more likely to be a organ harvesting op than whatever madness you’re saying”

“what? you need me, a singing superhero, to go stop a problem happening underneath the school, a location meant to recruit young women into potentially becoming fellow crime fighting singers?”

“yeah im too busy poppin’ caps in asses so go kick ass in my place”

“sure!”

“.....................................who ya talkin to, hibiki?”

“the boss! gotta go do a thing again...”

“hibiki, i dont like the fact that capitalism is tearing us apart.”

“you’ve gotta join me in the revolution, hibiki. you. me. luxury automated gay space communism. aint it the dream? share my vision, hibiki. its glorious.”

“n... no...? no gay space communism today? well, what about tomorrow? or the next day? or... maybe the next day? baby steps, you say? but, direction action, hibiki! we’ve gotta strike now!”

“it’s okay hibiki. when i take over the world and destroy all first world government leaders, and unite the globe in my encompassing reign and love... ill make sure to spare you, and be my bride to be.”

“thanks miku. im just not ready yet for the globe to burn in an unending ball of fire as the continents fuse into a new utopia composed of our combined wills. also, ive really gotta go, its genuinely an emergency.”

“for the cause!”

“yes hibiki... for the cause...”

Admittedly, you can see the stages of grief Miku goes through when she sees Hibiki say she can’t join her for pancakes. It’s sad. This side story sucks.

Meanwhile, as it turns out, the problem Hibiki needed to resolve was checking on Tsubasa to see if she hadn’t dissolved into Taco Bell brand hot n’ spicy Tabasco sauce.

“god, cant believe taco bell was closed. now i gotta deliver these lame ass flowers”

“cant wait to get threatened again. wonder what she’ll say. ‘hibiki, i should have killed you when i had the chance.’ or ‘you’re so goddamned weak. i could break your spine with my fingernail’, or some other stuff about metaphors. oh, my stops here”

“HEY BITCH WHATS GOOD-”

“HOLY SHIT”

“you are already”

“dead.”

[getrope1]

My tags got fucked up??? why does god inconvenience me at every turn?. I'll just put em her instead. Okay so

1) Let danny be an asshole. Hes 14, hes a little shit and uwu-fying him ruins his character. Kid straight up called the GIW on Vlads ass with no hesitation. Danny woke up that morning and chose violence.

2) I dont like it when people refer to Dani as 'Elle/Ellie'. I think she should take the name Dani as her own. Like it's her name? She shouldn't have to change it just because Danny had the name first and that shes his clone. I of course get WHY people call her Elle/Ellie instead, a Dani, a Danny and a Dan all in the same show can get confusing but still. It's her original name, let her have it.

Power move; refering to Danny as Daniel to differenciate the two

3) I dont actually like any danny phantom ships. Everlasting Trio and Grey Ghost are fine I guess, they just dont vibe with me. Tbh my favourite dp ships are crossover ships and even then theres not alot for Danny where I'm thinking 'Oh Hell Yeah'. Crash Course by Carmic on ao3 did in fact make me fall in love with the idea of Jazz Fenton/ Jason Todd, because they both deserve good things and it's really fucking funny. Like poor Jazz cant escape the whole 'black haired blue eyed guy who died at 14/15 and was revived in some way by a glowing pit of green liquid, thus giving them white hair and glowing green eyes (but only sometimes) who have very complicated relationships with their parents due to their untimely death, who has an older sibling with older sister syndrome, fights using ranged weapons/powers, is a hero (at least to some degree) and is widely headcanoned as having autopsy scars'. Like girl cannot catch a break huh. Danny/tim drake and Danny/Peter parker are good crossover ships too ig. Just. Eh. Aro/Ace Danny is superior Danny

4) Wes and Kyle are alright. I dont really think we need anymore family lore (or lore in general) but they're just. Funny lil guys, what can I say. I can definitely understand why people wouldnt like them though.

5) 'Jack and Maddie love their kids' and 'Jack and Maddie are terrible parents' are not mutually exclusive statements. I dont even think I have to get into the reasons as for why that is because there are already a bunch of posts that explain it better than I could, but danny and jazz should be taken out of that house.

6) Let All of the Fentonshave something be inherently creepy and ghostly about them even before the portal opens. They've been surrounded by/consuming ectoplasm for most/ all their lives. That's bound to do something to a person. Like let them develop supernatural traits (like obsessions/ superhuman strength/reflective eyes). Let them be creepy and fucked up

7) I dont like alot of the designs in the show. Mainly of ghosts like pandora or pariah dark. Just a personal thing I guess. Also stop having all the girls in the show wearing crop tops its creepy. Dani is like 11 (right?)

8) someone already said it here but I really like the idea of some ghosts either just; (a) being dead people/creatures (ex ember), (b) being lil ghost babies. Products of a ghost getting some D, or (c) just showing up one day (the minor god ghosts, because they... exist)

9) Dadwork is incredibly funny and can be very wholesome but hes also an asshole and you've gotta keep that

10) I like ghost king Danny but only if (a) he doesnt know at all and is like, 'damn, kinda crazy how clockwork is making me help keep the peace between these two areas of the GZ, shouldn't the king be doing this instead???', (b) he is actually crown prince and once he reaches the human age of 18 he will become king and is just frantically trying to do everything he wants to do before being tied down to Responsibilities, (c) he is being dragged around kicking and screaming while ghosts beg him to do his job please Phantom were begging you-, or (d) he really doesnt like being ghost king but he recognises the power he now has and will now make that everyone else's problem. Causes casual mischief under the guise of politics.

11) How Vlad, Danny and Dani age should be all out of wack. Having them age normally is (a) boring, and (b) kinda ignores that they either died or were made half dead and I think that should idk. Interrupt the natural progression of aging for them? And I think it should be different for all 3 of them too! Since vlad was made a halfa slowly I think he should age very slowly, but still age. I think Dani should age REALLY fast because of the shenanigans of being a clone, but her aging could be slowed down or stopped using something, maybe like eveline from re7. I think danny either shouldn't age at all OR only age for like 2-5 years after he died. Having them age normally takes away from the biggest drawbacks of their powers, which is being dead.

12) I dont like when crossover fics start off with the nasty burger explosion, or his family being dead (just in general) and either being kidnapped by the GIW or getting shipped off to some previously unknown family members. Alot of the fun in crossovers is to see all the characters from both series interact? And starting off with 'uh oh, Danny's family just died and now hes very sad and upset about this!' Kinda ruins it for me personally. Theres definitely ways to make it work well! I just dont see the appeal lol

13) speaking of crossovers, there should be more Dp x Dc crossovers!! Like dude cmon. Theres a Lazarus pit right there. John Constantine is right there. JASON TODD IS RIGHT THERE. They would work SO well in a crossover, and there should be more. Also let Danny freak out about meeting Martian manhunter and miss Martian k thanks

Uhhh theres probably more i want to talk about but no thoughts head empty.

What’s your unpopular Danny Phantom opinions? I’ll go first

-I don’t like Dani

-The Ultimate Enemy was a bad episode and Dan sucks

-Ghost Writer isn’t that engaging of an enemy. Also his episode sucked too.

-Clockwork is okay??? I guess???

Okay now go

Thoughts on Book 4. Gonna highlight the positives.

i liked the potencial of the ending. it was interesting in a way. 

While i definitely agree with the critics of atrocious pacing, the dream within a dream within a dream inception, and the weird “hey there buddy” Peony, i thought the possibilities presented were cool.

Freyja was definitely a highlight. I really enjoyed her arc as a villian. She had awesome designs, was a threat both in game and in story, was shown multiple times on how she operated as a villian, her perspective on humans and fairies. While her “redemption” was rushed, i enjoyed the progression of her character, and how she had an “arc”.

From obsessed with her brother (maybe also experiencing some sort of degenaration(akin to like...Anankos/Duma/Mila)) -> He sacrificing himself and dying -> having to deal with the source of her obsession dying and the desesperation that came with it -> becoming a foil to the summoner in the sense of someone precious to them dying but summoner still going foward while she was stuck -> being left with nothing and wondering about her fairies loyalty -> frank convo with Triandra -> slowly realizing that hey... triandra and plumeria were important to me/being confused about what she felt towards them and their loyalty towards her, even as she realized they were the only thing she had left after her brother died -> realizing she cared abt them and not wanting them to die possible also inspired by what she saw of Peony/Askr Gang -> sacrificing herself for them and saving their lifes, dying while understanding why her brother felt that way towards humans and feeling a similar way(but towards her fairies instead of all humans).

I thought it was pretty neat this arc(or at least its bare bones’s idea). Like a horrible paced mess, but the concepts were interesting. After Hel and Surtr who had no arcs besides “...evil”, this progression was pretty cool.

Freyr: pretty bland, but i liked how he took iniciative to stop Freyja and sacrificed himself. Pretty cool design too. He was more of a plot device but i felt he did his job well enough.

Peony & Sharena situation: That was also super cool! It was rushed too, but Sharena despair over possibily not being the OG Sharena, and Peony confrontation with her were pretty cool. It felt emotional to read the dialogue between them. I wish this book could have focused more on them instead, bc this situation was really interesting. Abused kids playing together, Peony and Sharena switching places so many times, they were basically the same, and finally Peony taking the nectar to both a. stay togther with her sister b. protect Sharena because of all of them, Sharena was the only one who had a family who would be sad if she disappeared(Alfonse). (it kind of confuses me that people said it wasnt stated who was who, bc while it isnt explcitely stated, Peony gives a reason only the OG Peony would have had (Sharena having a sibling that cares for her and not wanting to break their bond, in contrast to OG Peony who would stay with her sibling if she took the nectar) to drink the nectar. And then, Peony being ready to sacrifice herself and conforting Sharena was also very cool.

I also got confused on people wondering how Peony survived, because Freyja sacrifice was to revive/save the fairies, and while she only talks to Plumeria and Triandra, i took as since she is the god, her death being able to save ALL the fairies even if the priorities were Triandra and Plumeria, and thats why Peony appeared in the end.

i could of course have interpreted wrong, but that was my reading.

Triandra:

“Wow since Plumeria story was paced nicely i cant wait to see Triandra being properly paced like that”

“New heroes one screen dialogue: BITCH YOU THOUGHT”

I found her backstory and relationship with Freyja fascinating and i wish she had had more screentime. Definitely my favorite of the 4 fairies even if she got the third shortest stick of them all. There was so much potencial, like. big sister to Peony who straight up murdered their abused parent to protect her sister, took the nectar to be powerful and a hero and not let more harm come to her sister, came to genuinely cares about Freyja who saved her and Peony, and thus is loyal towards all to Freyja. It kills me they never let her properly react to Peony, bc it would be so interesting!! Like!!

Who would she pick: the one who saved her and her sister  or her sister who she did everything to. And explore all the possible feelings she could have had towards her situation!! Does it haunt her she had to resort to murder?(i got the vibe that not) is she ever resentful that Peony got the happy dreams and she the sads and thus she is always surrounded by sadness? is she alright with the sad dreams as a contrast to Plumeria who hates her lewd dreams?  Why does she sides with Freyja instead of Peony(while triandra explains why she is loyal to Freyja, she never gets to say why her loyalty is stronger to freyja than to Peony) ? she ultimadely started to care for Freyja more than Peony over the years separated?  How does she feel over Sharena/Peony switches? Did her loyalty to Peony diminished bc of that?

There are so many interesting hooks but alas.

Alfonse & Summoner situation: It was interesting i guess. i liked the still art. and the meme.s. stil wish we focused more on peony & Sharena but erk

Story x Game mechanics: SO COOL. WEAPONLESS FREYR?? “”SUMMONER���” WITH SAME STATS AND SKILLS THAT ALFONSE?? “---” i love gameplay storytelling. First time being done and it was pretty cool.

negative thoughts under.

Plumeria: ..... the pacing of her story was good. Her backstory was also super heartbreaking.

I wish i could like her but i cant stop thinking on how miserable her existence is. Like i feel it would be better  if even if she still hated it lewd dreams, she could still claim some sort of agency by making them painful in humans or always degenarating them into despair/nightmares, thus reclaiming a sort of control over a power she hates but

IS voice: god forbid she have complex feelings abt it right,

Outside of that i would love a xenologue where she and triandra deal with freyja sacrifice and death and it explores her feelings.

Mirabilis: ....she sure did exist huh. DIsliked her design, her color palette and just ehhhhhhh. 

conclusion:

Favs of the arc: Freyja (T-poses in has an arc) > Triandra > Freyr.

Book score: 6/10. Interesting concepts, better pacing if still atrocious, gamEPLAY STORYTELLING BRUH.

if i would tier i would put something like

book 3 > book 4 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> book 1 >= book 2

although i do think book 4 did a lot of more interesting things (arcs/gameplay storytelling) than book 3, book 3 does holds some special place in the heart
