How do you take a photo of time?
I've been watching the track events at the Olympics since I was a wee lad. It was a tradition in our family. We'd gather around our ancient low-definition 19 inch CRT television and watch tiny blobs compete against other tiny blobs and root for our country.
It was a bit like watching YouTube on your phone in 144p.
Several heroes emerged.
Jackie Joyner-Kersee was amazing.

You can't forget about Flo-Jo.

And then the Olympics decided NBA players were allowed in the competition.
Which formed... The Dream Team.

Was this fair?
Well... they won each game by an average of 44 points.
So... no. It was not fair.
Though it became more fair as time went on.
But, umm... yeah. The other teams looked like the Washington Generals and the US looked like the Harlem Globetrotters if they stopped screwing around half of the game.
But my absolute favorite Olympian was a runner named Michael Johnson.

He was cool as heck.
For one thing... gold shoes.
But he also had this crazy, upright, Tom Cruise-ish sprinting style that just made him look like a running robot on the track.
And in the 1996 Atlanta games he just trounced EVERYONE. I mean, it wasn't even close.
Yikes. Those losing blobs are probably really embarrassed.
Last night I decided to invigorate my nostalgia and watch the track events again. And I got to see one of the wildest races in history.
It didn't even last 10 seconds but it was one of the most exciting sporting events I've ever witnessed. Almost every runner won the race.
After I saw that initially, I was like... who the heck won???
Even in slow motion I wasn't sure.
This was one of the closest finishes in history. There has never been a race where all 8 runners were within this margin.
The arena was silent as the winner was being confirmed. The runners just kind of paced around waiting for official word. My best guess was the Jamaican runner, Kishane Thompson. But then the loudspeaker announced Noah Lyles.

The last tiny morsel of American pride burst out of me with a big "Wooooo!"
I forgot what it was like to be proud of my country. I wish it happened more often. But this young man, despite being last place in the first 3rd of the race, turned on the afterburners and won in a photo finish.
And that's when my inner nerd took over.
Because when they showed the photo finish image, it looked super weird.
Why is the track white?
Why do all of the runners look all warpy like that QWOP game?

So I went down a research rabbit hole to figure this out.
Photo finishes are actually fascinating. The first photo finish captured the end of a horse race in 1890. But that was mostly luck and timing. The actual photo finish mechanisms weren't used until 1937.
Originally they would film the finish line through a physical slit.
And the first horsie head that appeared in that slit would be the winner. This technology ended a huge aspect of corruption in horse race fixing almost overnight.
But we have come a long way since then. And I'd like to introduce you to the Omega Scan 'O' Vision Ultimate.
This slow motion camera sits fixed on the finish line of every race. The concept of the photo finish has remained remarkably similar to the 1930s approach. The camera sensor is specially designed to only record a vertical slit.
Only the finish line itself is actually captured.
And because it limits what it records to only that slit, it can capture 40,000 frames per second to get amazing temporal resolution.
So why don't the photo finishes just look like, well... this?

That is because the camera takes a picture of time more-so than dimensional space. I guess it would be more accurate to say it *assembles* a picture of time.
As the runners cross the finish line, the camera combines all of the little strips of pictures into a single image.






It's almost like if you tried to reassemble a piece of paper after it had been shredded.

Imagine each strip of paper is a picture of ONLY the finish line, just at a slightly different point in time.
What if someone stopped on the finish line and didn't move... what would that look like?
Once they got there, the same part of their body would just be repeated.
So the right side of the photo finish picture represents earlier in time and it just assembles the image strip by strip as time passes and you literally get a picture of time itself.
NEAT!
Okay, but how do they determine the winner from the photo finish?
I mean, that shoe looks like it is ahead of Noah Lyles!
Clavicles!
The IAFF rules state the foremost part of the torso must cross the finish line first. And the endpoint of the torso is the outer end of the clavicle.
So if you get this bone across the finish line first, you win the race.

Two more fun facts!
The start of the race is actually just as carefully timed as the end of the race. There are sensors in the starting blocks of each runner.
The starting gun also has an electronic sensor.
They have determined the fastest a human can react to the sound of a gun is roughly 100 milliseconds. So if you start running before 100 milliseconds they know you didn't actually hear the gun, you just got antsy and started running too early.
And the final fun fact...
Did you notice the Omega logo at the top of the photo finish?
That isn't superimposed or added after the fact. That is captured by the camera.
But if this image is composed only of tiny little slivers, how did they get the Omega logo to show up?

That is a little display. And it is synchronized with the Scan 'O' Vision Ultimate to show a little sliver of the Omega logo for each frame captured.
So when the final image is stitched together, it looks like a cohesive logo at the top of the photo.
Pretty clever, Omega!

Wooooo Theo requests are opennnnnn
Could we have some jealous Theo pls?
Ofc you can... jealous Theo, here we go.
Word count: 1.8k
warning: swearing, aggressive behaviour, sexual innuendo
unread or edited
likes, comments and reblogs highly appreciated <3
...
It was unusual for you to intentionally piss Theo off, yes, you loved to tease him from time to time, but Theodore Nott has always been a hot-headed assassin if you push him far enough.
That brings you to today, more specifically, one hour and three minutes ago, when Professor Snape entrusted your class to choose partners for an upcoming assignment.
Of course, as usual, you had made your way to Theo to get started. To your complete surprise, your teddy was already settled and started with none other than Daphne Greengrass.
The problem with Greengrass was that she and Theodore were both house Prefects together, and their corridor patrol had already been a tense conversation topic during your last argument.
She kept him from you. Yes, it was mandatory, but respecting your girlfriend's boundaries should also be compulsory, you recall stating. He kissed your forehead and muttered something about you being overdramatic.
So you suck your teeth and tap him on the shoulder, his body turning to you with such imperturbable composure that it was almost as if you were interrupting.
"Work together?" you smiled, your lips too tight
His hand had gestured back to Daphne. "I can't, Greengrass bet you to it, darling", he explained, letting out an almost nervous chuckle.
You took a moment to scan the scene; we're playing this game, sure, game on.
"Really?" You questioned, your voice a little higher than usual, only to be met with a nod, so you smiled once more before leaving him with a quick peck on his cheek.
That brings you to now, watching them from a distance, the quill in your hand threatening to snap from the grip you held.
"Oh, come on, working with me can't be that bad, can it?" Lorenzo joked, gently insinuating to let go of your death grip before ink exploded everywhere
"No Enzo, it's not, just plotting for murder" you sigh, nudging your head in Theo's direction
"don't go all dark on us common folk, kid" he laughed
"Oh, I'm not. The rest of you are safe... for now," you joke back
"But seriously, Enz" you continue, throwing your hand in their direction.
"Yeah, well, I'd say bring it up tonight, but your boy's got patrol tonight too. He told us he can't come for a late-night fly, you see," rambled Enzo, now joining your stare towards Theo and Daphne.
"He does?" you beam
"He does." Enzo states
You nod as your face reflects a plan coming into your mind, a taste of his own medicine
"Oh no, I don't like that look." warns Enzo
"I don't know what you're referring to?" you practically sing
"What's more, I don't like that tone in you're the voice," he says, moving slightly away from you.
"Have I ever told you how much I appreciate our friendship, Enz?" You almost pout
"Nope, no, don't start this", he complains
"How about for two hundred galleons?" you pry
"Ok, what're we doing" he smiles.
By the time dinner rolled around, you had made an undeniable choice not to sit next to Theodore. Instead, you nestled between Blaise and Lorenzo, moving in closer to Enzo than comfortable. Laughing a little too loud at his jokes, holding eye contact for a second too long.
You observed Theo's demeanour across from you. His fork clattered against his plate, his appetite visibly waning. Across the table, his dark eyes narrowed, flicking between you and Lorenzo.
It was working, and you would finish with a bang.
When Lorenzo reached out of his pocket a small piece of parchment and passed it into your hand without shame. Taking the paper you open it, smile and nod his way.
By instinct, Theodore's hand shot over the table to examine the note for himself, but you were a step ahead, moving it just out of his reach, before shoving it in your own pocket.
"Passing notes to your best friend, girl, huh, Enz?" Theos tone ice cold
"For our assignment in Snape's class, ain't that right?" Enzo smiled playfully, knocking his shoulder into your own
"Right, Snapes class" you reply
"ah shit, I slept in this morning. Who'd I get paired up with?" complained Mattheo
"Don't stress, Riddle. We get to pick; it's whoever you'd like," you explain, your eyes not leaving a now agitated Theo.
By the end of dinner, you’d had enough fun—almost. As you stood to leave, Theo caught your arm.
“Come by tonight?” His voice was low, almost hesitant.
You smiled, sharp. “I can’t, things to do. You’ve got patrol, remember? Have fun.” turning on your heels, leaving him strained.
Theodore almost constantly got his way, but this, this had to be dealt with; what the fuck was your problem and what the fuck were you up to.
Late into the night, Theodore walked cooly through the dungeons, Daphne beside him; as they walked, Daphne rambled on about Merlin knows, but Theodore didn't hear a word. He heard quick, shuffled footsteps around the corner; assuming it was some trouble-making third years, he quickened his pace.
As he approaches closer, he finally spots a shadow, as he squints his eyes he thinks he can make the shape out to be a girl
"Hey, stop right there!" he calls out, his voice echoing back in the quite of the night
Turning around you prepare to shrug your shoulders or run, depending on his reaction
"Alright, caught me fair and square, Officer Nott," you say mockingly holding your hands up
"Baby? The fuck are you doing, do you know what time it is?" he rushes brows furrowed, hand reaching for your face, he almost feels the need to examine you for injury, you're never out this late.
"I'm just fine, you won't write me up for this, will you," you grin taking a step away from him "Hi Daphne," you say as she comes around the corner
Before Theodore could reply or get an answer from you loud footsteps are heard again, this time not coming from you
"Are you with someone" he spills out, his voice sharp, accusatory
Opening your mouth to answer, before you could get a word out Lorenzo appears from the corner behind you
"You ready?" Enzo calls out to you then turns to Theo. "Hey mate, patrol kicking your ass or what?" he laughs walking to your side
"No, but I'll be kicking your ass if you don't explain to me why the fuck you're meeting my girlfriend at half past one in the morning?" Theo practically growled
"We're going to the astronomy tower, if you'll excuse us" you explain brows raised, attempting to walk off with Enzo, before Lornezo and yourself could walk all but four steps, Theos extending his rough hand to Enzos chest, halting any movenmt
"I don't think so, Daphne if you wouldn't mind walking Mr Berkshire here to his dorm, make sure he gets to bed" Theo demands, stalking closer. "I'll handle trouble of here myself" His eyes darkening as his hand finds your back immediately ushering you away before Daphne can even agree.
Theodore took you down a long hallway, out of sight before pressing you against a wall "The fuck kind of game are you playing with me, you think this shits gonna slide with me?" he mumbles as his hand slides up the wall behind you
"I was just seeing a friend, we were gonna work on Snapes project" you protest
"Yeah not on my fucking watch you're not" his voice now raised
"We're trying to sleep here!" A portrait from above calls out
"See don't want to upset the paintings now do we, I'll be going" you smile foot in front of the other, before you feel a pull forcing you back in your place, Theodore fingers gripping you by the loop of your jeans
"you got a real knack for pissing me off, y'know that," he says, his lips inches away from yours, his voice low
"feelings mutual, Nott" you mutter
Before you can protest anymore, his lips come crashing down onto yours, heavy, rough, possessive. You try to wrap your arms around him only to be met with his hands tight-gripped on each side of your hips, like he is trying to anchor himself. He was literally putting you in your place as his lips left yours too quickly
When he pulled back, his forehead rested against yours, his breath ragged.
"Let me make something clear, try to get it through your thick, fucking, skull", he spat, his finger gently digging into your temple
"I'm not spending tonight with Greengrass by choice alright, I know why your doing this shit, you have nothing to worry about, don't give me a damn reason to question you" he rants
"I-" you interject
"No, I'm talking." he interrupts
"I don't share whats mine, you're mine" he continues his tone so sharp, it wasn't up for question, all you could do was nod
"So now you're gonna say sorry, Theodore and then we're gonna go to my dorm, so when you get to Snapes class tomorrow, you'll be limping" he orders
"I'm sorry" you say almost too quickly hoping the two words would be enough to get you to his dorm as soon as possible
"Good girl, I'm sorry too, for not making things with Daphne clearer, we belong to each other you and me" he says as his hand rubs up and down your arm
You nod once again in agreement
"Now what the fuck to do about Enzo" he laughs, cracking his knuckles as if to prepare
"No! I paid him to do this, I knew you'd be on shift, I knew you'd catch us" you ramble out
The confession makes Theo stop dead in his tracks
"You what?"
"I didn't know what else to do" you admit
"How much did he take?" he almost smiles
"300" you mutter
"that cheap git" he spits out
"Alright" he mutters picking you up throwing you over his shoulder
"Hey!" you yelp out
"Shut it!" a portrait from above called out
Ignoring the crowd above completely, Theo picks up his pace. "So this time, you can't run away", he says, tightening his grip on your thigh.
Let's just say the next morning in Snape's class, partners were swapped very quickly, Theodore insisting Lorenzo and Daphne were stationed on the opposite side of class; coincidence? Highly unlikely.
woohoo jealous teddy put me in my place next

HI POOOKIEE!!! could u possibly make slasher headcanons with a silly and chaotic reader? reader is just really weird and making random noises, jumping around and saying out-of-pocket stuff. bonus if they switch accents multiple times in a sentence 🤭
also, could I be star anon ⭐️?
Various Slashers x Chaotic!reader
So sorry it took so long to get to this LMAO, I got hit hard with a brand new interest so it kind of silenced the slasher interest just as it was getting getting set in motion 😭😭
Post contains; jason, brahms, chucky, and Michael Myers since I can only really write 3-4 characters currently 😭😭
WOOOOO as soon as this current interest dies down a little I might go on and continue my horror movie binge
And yes you may be ⭐ anon!!!:3
I still need to watch the chucky show RaaAAAAH
First time writing for Michael and chucky too so I apologize if they're a little.... so-so
Jason
Oh that poor man... you confuse him a lot of the time but he overlooks your stranger behaviors because he loves you so much! You keep him guessing what you're going to so next, so life in your shared cabin never really gets dull. He does put his foot down hard if you do something without thinking it through, something that could leave you hurt.. he doesnt play around with your safety
Brahms
It takes him a moment to get used to it, hes just never really been exposed to someone like you. Not that theres anything wrong with you... actually it makes him even more infatuated with you because he always wants to know what you're going to do next! Watches you like a hawk from the walls while you're walking around doing your chores for the day.. you might even encourage him to talk more or interact directly with you just because he wants to hear you talk and say whatever crosses your mind in the moment. Though he does get a little pouty if hes trying to be romantic and you say something that completely shatters the atmosphere... he learns new terms and phrases through you, the same can be said for Jason, and boy.. do you have this man wondering what half of these terms mean
Michael
"What do you see in (reader)?" "They make me laugh" except Michael doesnt laugh (and if he ever does the closest you get is the slightest huff from his nose), and he doesnt answer the question. He thinks.. well it's hard to tell what he thinks due to him not showing much of a reason when you do your thing around him. He simply stands there. Though when you do do something dumb or something that could potentially put you in danger he physically drags you back. Firmly. It's kind of like performing a comedy act where the crowd is silent, except it's just your personality... that said if you ever get ANY reaction from Michael it's going to bounce around in your head for a while
Chucky
I can definitely see him taking mental notes on some of the more... fucked up things that slipped out, whether it be accidental or on purpose fucked up. Sometimes he gets irritated with how high energy you are so it might (cough cough most likely) lead to him getting a little pissy around you. You have left him with his sides hurting after you caught him off guard with a comment while hes doing his.. thing.. if you're aware of the fact hes a murderer and/or in in it. Actually fairly receptive, occasionally shooting a joke back

Congrats on the followers!!!! WOOOOO!!!
could I request “I really want to kiss you right now.” with Beelzebabes please? something about him just saying that out of the blue…ugh. it fuckin GETS me. NSFW af please (the naughtier the better ;) lol), and if I could request AFAB but gender neutral pronouns for reader?
Also if it’s not asking too much could you avoid using the word “cunt?” Just a personal turn off, tbh.
btw i’m @libidinous-weeb on here! (side blog) and your smut writing skills are top tier!!! you’re sooo good, i’m a huge fan! <3
Hello hello!
Ahh thank you so much!! I'm still not very confident in my smut writing, so it means it a lot to hear that you like it!!
Okay, so hopefully this one turned out okay... I love Beel so much I think he would just be really sweet the whole time lol. I didn't really end up using pronouns aside from you/yours, so hopefully that's okay, too. But MC is AFAB! As it turns out, I don't like using the word "cunt" either so I didn't, but I would also like to say that it is absolutely never too much to ask me not to use a word like that. I am happy to accommodate any such preferences!
Thank you for participating!

AFAB!MC x Beelzebub with prompt "I really want to kiss you right now."
NSFW MDNI
Warnings: face-sitting, penetration (reader receiving)
You had been flirting pretty blatantly with Beel all day, hoping against hope that he'd pick up on your meaning. It wasn't as though he didn't already know how you felt. You had already spent several nights together, all of them mind blowing. But you found yourself wanting more and more. And it had been too long.
It was a slow afternoon and most of his brothers were out of the house or otherwise occupied. For once, you didn't really have anything demanding your attention. It was the perfect opportunity to spend a little quality time with Beel. He seemed happy enough to do whatever you wanted, but he didn't seem to be picking up on exactly what you wanted.
You asked him to join you in your room to watch some TV. Sitting together on your bed was the perfect situation. You could cuddle with him, maybe kiss him a bit, and if he still wasn't getting the message, you might need to just say it directly.
But when you were there, cozied up to his side, you found the TV so boring and his presence so relaxing that you felt yourself getting a little drowsy. Being cuddled up with him like that was so comfortable, you forgot all about your earlier attempts at flirting, your eyelids actually starting to get a little heavy.
"MC," Beel said.
His tone was so serious, you sat up straight to look at him. "What is it?"
Beel met your eyes. "I really want to kiss you right now."
You blinked in surprise for a moment. And then you were no longer sleepy. You turned off the TV, climbed into his lap, and kissed him.
Beel's hands went to your waist and when you opened your mouth for him, he took the invitation readily. You felt the hot spike of desire that ran through your body at the feeling of his tongue against yours. The kiss got hot and sloppy, your motions growing desperate as all the neediness you had been feeling previously returned to you full force. When you felt his erection stirring beneath you, you took the opportunity to grind down on it.
Beel moaned low in his throat, his lips still on yours, his hands running over your hips and your backside. You broke away to pull in a breath, leaving Beel to put his lips on your neck. He sucked and nipped just a little, which made you gasp and grind down on him again. The throbbing need between your legs was almost too much to bear as you gripped Beel's shoulders.
Beel ran his hands under your shirt, breaking away from you so he could pull it over your head, exposing your chest. You tugged on his, too, and it was gone in moments, both of them forming a little heap on the floor. And then Beel's mouth was on one of your nipples. You clutched at his bare shoulders, nails digging in enough to leave little half moon indentations in his skin.
And then you felt Beel's fingers tugging on the waistband of your pants. You slid off of his lap to remove them yourself along with your underwear, too eager to let him do it for you.
Before you could do anything else, though, Beel was lying down on your bed on his back. You frowned at him because he was still wearing his pants.
"Um, Beel," you said.
Beel tugged on your hand and you let him pull you back up onto the bed. His hands guided you until you were straddling his face, your knees on either side of his head.
"Beel," you said again, a note of uncertainty in your voice.
"Is this okay? You can trust me, MC," Beel said, his hands resting on your hips.
You nodded your willingness to let him take the lead and he pushed gently on your hips. You lowered yourself down, holding onto the headboard for balance.
The moment Beel's tongue made contact with your hot flesh, your body clenched and you were thankful you were already gripping the headboard. You held on as he plunged his tongue inside of you before pulling it up to swirl around your clit. You moaned, feeling the wetness dripping from you, imagining how it must be dripping down his chin.
Beel moaned into you and the vibration of his deep voice made you shudder. Beel pushed down on your hips again, making you sink even lower. You had a vague thought about potentially suffocating him, but it fled as soon as he began to suck. He was moaning continuously now, clearly doing it on purpose because of the way you were reacting to it.
You held on to the headboard with both hands, not sure how long you could last like this. The sweet hot feeling gathered deep within you, building and building. You moaned Beel's name as you could feel yourself getting closer and closer until your orgasm finally burst upon you, rolling through you and making you see stars.
You couldn't stop yourself from moving your hips as you rode out your high, not even able to think about what that might be doing to Beel's face.
When you were able to think clearly again, you moved back, half sitting on his chest because you didn't have the strength to go anywhere else.
Beel smiled up at you and your stomach fluttered at the sight of your cum on his lips. He licked them and you nearly orgasmed again just from that.
You leaned forward, letting your head fall on his shoulder. "Beel, you're making me crazy."
Beel rubbed your back. "Do you want me to keep going? Or is it too much?"
You looked at him and smiled. You didn't say anything, just sat up, moved so you were sitting next to him on the bed, and tugged at his pants.
Beel took the hint. He got up from the bed to discard them on the pile of all your other clothes.
This freed his massive cock and you wondered briefly if your eyes were shining excitedly at the sight of it. You could feel the thrill that ran though you as you reached out to touch it.
Beel let you stroke it for a little bit while he stood beside the bed, biting his lip and trying not to groan.
After a minute though, he looked down at you. "MC…"
There was a note of desperation in his tone that sent a stab of desire spiking up your spine. You instantly lay back on the bed, scooting yourself toward the edge. Beel helped you by pulling your legs up to rest on his chest, but paused with the tip of his cock at your entrance. He looked down at you, a question clearly on his face.
"It's okay, Beel," you said. You pushed yourself closer to him. "I want you inside me."
Even with this permission, Beel went slow. You knew it was because he was aware of his size and didn't want to hurt you in any way. You were already so wet, but you were also sensitive after having orgasmed on his face moments ago. Every inch of him that entered you shot sparking sensations through your entire body. You were already squirming and moaning beneath him by the time he was fully inside you.
You reached up to grab at his hands, which were resting on your hips, as he began to slowly move in and out of you. It was almost agonizing how careful he was being.
You arched your back and said, "Faster, faster, please…"
Beel always listened to you and this was no exception. He immediately picked up the pace, pounding into you hard and fast, hitting that sweetest spot deep inside you and making you cry out with the overwhelming pleasure of it.
Beel seemed to be just as lost in sensation as you were, his thrusts becoming frantic, your name spilling from his mouth in a repetitive mumble.
You were already nearing your climax again. It was only a matter of a few more hard thrusts from Beel and you were clenching around him, everything tightening as you did your best not to scream. Your hands clutched at the sheets beneath you as Beel kept going. You squirmed, rocking your hips with him, the feelings running through you so intense you couldn't help the praise spilling from your lips, telling him how good he felt, how amazing he was, how full he made you feel.
It seemed hearing you saying such things, even incoherently, was the last push Beel needed. He groaned as he filled you up with his cum, his hands clenching on your hips, his thrusts stuttering and then slowing.
The two of you stared at each other for a moment, both of you breathing heavily. After catching your breath, you would clean each other up, carefully and sweetly, before returning to your bed. You pressed yourself into Beel's side, his arm circling protectively around you and pulling you closer. The feeling of his skin against yours was so nice, you found yourself filled with a sense of happiness. It wasn't long before you both fell asleep, completely exhausted.

First Ateez Concert (Post performance write up) part 2/2
Stream of consciousness from memory continues
-It's interesting to see the 'highlight' reel parts - the blindfold biting part, for example - live, after seeing so many iterations of them at different speeds, with different lighting effects added per tiktok creator tastes. They go by much faster, and yet from the odd amount of familiarity- as in, I've unwittingly memorized that step or that piece of choreography - seeing it performed live was akin to but not the same as hearing a very familiar strain of classical music done with unexpected instruments (say, Beethoven 9th Symphony opening bars performed with a sitar)
-Wooyoung is very cat like, but not in my 12 year old fat orange cat with the big belly way. He isn't squishable. He's a sphinx cat - extremely thin (omg so thin), the hugest eyes, the pointiest chin, and looking extremely irritable and highly sensitive in the best (?) way. The kind of fussy fucking cat that people buy organic chickens raised in chicken-heaven conditions to cook into specialized cat food for by hand, while they themselves subsist on fast food. HOWEVER. The tininess was a bit of a problem when he was dancing with the group as a whole - Yunho and Mingi had the size advantage, and San moves in very LARGE motions as does - surprising me again! - Yeosang which meant it was hard for me to find him sometimes. In his solo Woo had the high octane charisma I expected. His dancing had the same fine-bone china fragility as his body. He is extraordinarily camera savvy though. Any time he was on the large screen he owned it, and produced a different flavor every time.
He also really enjoys the part where he get choked during Silver Light. I dunno if what he does is just let his face go blank and let us just project into it with the help of the music (Ingrid Bergman did this during Casablanca) or if he has some sort of narrative happening in his head OR if dancers operate their faces the same as their bodies but HE DID SOMETHING during that moment that had everyone take a collective breath, hold it, and then scream in unison before going OMG and WHAT THE FUUUU and 미쳤어 미쳤어 and WOOOOO (this is what I heard around me) (me I just went AAAAAAA).
- After Arriba Yunho jabbed at Mingi with a 나 나오면 깬다니까 ad lib both to be funny and to show how precise his impressions are, and Mingi got in an Ayyy! before it cut out.
- One of the things that I thought was confusing for the Korean audience was the whole Pick a Boss bit. Especially bc Hong Joong asked the question and picked the Atiny. She was adorable - he was so gentle with her and she was so shy and sweet (I kind of shipped them in the 4 seconds) but the Koreans were like ... Aren't you...the boss already HJ? and Why is this necessary? Does this ... DO something???
- And now for some not positive comments
- The first entrance for some reason is by the backup dancers. They get screamed for but I think by mistake. Why do they need to enter first?
- There was a very long gap before the final third while they were changing into street clothes get ups that nobody knew what to do or what was happening. It went on forever.
- The sound got blurry. I took out my ear protection a time or two because I wasn't sure if it was a me problem and it wasn't. The sound was blurry
- The ending felt rushed and undercooked somehow. They were in very cute street wear get ups. San with his backwards red cap especially very cute. They ran around the outer rim a lot, trying to give the 2nd and 3rd floor attendees a good time, but as a show it sort of had a ... Peter out feeling rather than a grand finale. It also looked like a LOT of running for all of them, trying to cover the space. I wondered if the pressure to DO something in the largest space they had ever been in Korea kind of cracked their spines because this bit felt ... less put together.
- Before the end they all rode a pope mobile /cart two at a time along the platform separating the 2nd and 3rd floors. I waved like mad and it was fun to see them closer up than the thumbelina size they had been throughout but this took up a lot of time and it kind of made the energy sag rather than get pepped up.
- The lighting was kind of horrible in large portions where even with opera glasses there was no way to see what was happening on stage and you had no choice but to look at the big screen because the lighting on stage was either a foggy blue or a muddy red.
-From K-atiny pregame chatter I was expecting the show to be exhausting and go over time etc and that didn't happen. It was not the full 3 hours. I am of two minds about this- did I want to be worn out? Maybe?

Oooh ok now we know your fav TOWL kiss(es) so the logical next question is what is/are you favorite TWD kiss(es) ???
And between your fav TOWL and fav TWD kiss… which one wins 😈
Just wanna start this off by saying I'm sorry I took so long to get to this! I've been busy lately but I wanted to give this question the time it deserved because I could really go on and on about every richonne kiss. But I am going to limit myself to my top 3. I would do more but currently I'm not in the hest headspace so its hard for me to think! This is in no particular order because it's hard as hell to pick favorites! Anywayyyy let's get started.
1. Have Your Mints
Okay so before richonne I wasn't really one of those people that shipped couples, okay? Of course I loved the chemistry between richonne but I wasn't as hardcore about it as I am now. I remember where I was when this moment happened. When I say it changed my life, it changed my entire DAMN life. Like, I was shell-shocked in the most amazing way possible. Never have I felt such euphoria in my life than I did when Rick and Michonne finally happened! I immediately became a VERY hard-core shipper. I would literally rewatch this kiss on repeat for HOURS for MONTHS straight. Obsessed was not even the word. Like it was straight up addiction the way I would watch it. Naturally it would have to be my favorite kiss! It's just so beautiful and romantic and sensual and tender, etc, etc, etc. I've never seen anything else like it. To quote Scott Gimple, "These are two people who have found kindred spirits in each other, strength, respect, support, loyalty. But the world has been screaming in their faces and clawing at them for a good part of their acquaintance. For all they’ve been through, when the world stopped screaming and clawing for them, they realized what they had." Wooooo! What a gorgeous quote. Basically, this kiss invented romance for me and changed the entire course of my life. I had to give it the #1 spot, I had to. I had to!!!

2. The Triple Kiss
This kiss is just too damn cute. If I'm not mistaken, it's the only casual kiss we ever get between richonne. Most of the time they're making out lmao! But it just goes to show how life has slowed down a lot for them and now they're fully able to enjoy their time together and they can take time with their kisses. It's so domestic. Also find it cute how Rick knows Michonne likes too work hard but kinda softly tells her to take it easy for the night because he wants to cuddle her to sleep. This whole scene is too good.

3. Hearts Still Beating
Well, this kiss was almost too dark to see but from what I did see it was sexy as fuck! And also very loving at the same time. Richonne is so good at that. I love love love LOVE Michonne's speech. She has such a way with words, her thinking about becoming a writer at one point in her life makes SO much sense. The way she talks about how she doesn't wanna do things her way. she wants to do it her AND Rick's way. She doesn't wanna do anything without her man by her side. The way she not only convines Rick to fight the saviors but also uplifts him in the process.... she is so one of a kind. And the way Rick listens intensely and values each and every word. This scene is also extra sweet because not only does it drive the narrative forward but it's also a makeup scene for Rick and Michonne who have been at odds! Whenever she starts crying and he cups her face and kisses her.... ughhhh you can just FEEL the yearning they've been experiencing over each other. They missed each other so bad and it feels so good for both of them to be back on the same page. This isn't an actual picture of the kiss but a still from the same scene. WHY IS THE STILL BRIGHTER THAN THE SCENE IN THE EPISODE!?!?! Lowkey I feel like someone on set was trying to sabotage them.

Now.... how do these compare to TOWL kisses? Well, this is kind of like asking a parent to pick their favorite child. How can I choose when they're all so perfect?!?!?!?! But seriously if you really want me to choose.....I have to go with the "have your mints" scene. I'm sorry! I just do. I mean... it's where we all started. It's what turned me into a shipper and kicked off the greatest love story of all time. Did I mention it was all done in one take and Danai and Andy essentially took their own direction for the scene? Meaning everything they did was unscripted and yet it still came off as the most natural thing in the world.... how can it not win?!?!

Blue + The Bad Sans Gang | Be careful what you wish for... - Chapter 4
wooooo new chapter! i hope you all enjoy!
read it on Ao3
or read it below!
The walk back to the kitchens was a quiet one, filled with unspoken tension. Dust had helped Blue up off the floor but none of them had lifted a finger to touch him after, his limp slowly getting less and less as they headed back through the castle. It was a long way of twists and turns, but Blue was finding that he was slowly mapping it out in his mind.
Finally entering through the large double doors, Blue gingerly headed to the fridge. He grabbed a water, popping the cap and drinking from it greedily before remembering who he was with. Glancing back at the three still disbelieving skeletons, he gestured with his bottle.
“You guys want a water?”
Three sets of shaking heads, so he shrugged and downed the rest of his own, throwing the bottle in the trash before turning back fully to them. This was going to be a difficult conversation, he could feel it. Surely Nightmare had explained what had been discussed, but Blue wasn't going to hold his breath.
“That’s not really what I meant by ‘drink’.” Dust murmured, but Blue just shrugged.
“I laid off the booze a while ago.” Which was the truth. Papy had been upset every time he went out and got drunk, so Blue didn't do it anymore.
That uncomfortable silence returned, Blue shifting from foot to foot until he finally realized that he hadn’t had time to clean the kitchen from breakfast. It would at least give his hands something to do, so he started putting things away.
Their eyes were on him the entire time, but it wasn’t until Killer spoke that Blue really clocked it. He really was losing his edge, his days spent here and not training making him soft.
“You really have been cooking for us.”
Blue glanced up from where he was crouched in front of the open fridge, putting away the eggs and butter. “...yeah? I lie to save people’s lives, not about food.”
That got a snort, but Horror was still staring impassively. Seemingly not amused.
“Why not… poison us?"
Blue stared at him for a long, long moment. He hadn’t even considered that, if he was honest. It wasn’t his style.
“I’ll be honest, the idea hadn’t even entered my mind. Besides, Nightmare would just kill me for it, and you’d all be sick, or worse. Why would I do that?”
Killer tilted his head, squinting. “Cause you’re our enemy??”
“Cause… we fight all the time.” Horror supplied.
“Because we don’t exactly fight on the same side.” Dust finished.
Blue looked at them all in turn, and couldn’t help the giggles that came out of him, a little unhinged tone to it.
Dust took a step towards him, out of caution or concern Blue didn’t know. He didn’t really care to let him get closer either way. A bone in the chest would have been preferred to a knife through his back, because at least he would see it coming. But he would rather not die today.
“Nightmare didn’t tell you, huh.”
Confusion filled the room like a fog, thick and easy to cut through.
“Uh… tell us what?” Killer asked, seemingly frustrated, his soul wavering like heat off of concrete.
Blue sighed, sitting on his haunches. “That I made a truce.”
Dust jolted a little, almost imperceptibly to anyone that wasn’t looking for it. “I thought you were joking about that shit.” He sounded disbelieving, not that Blue blamed him for it. Who would have thought he was being honest, let alone that it actually worked?
Shrugging, Blue tried to not look as tired as he felt, as exhausted as his soul was. “I made a deal. You guys don’t attack anymore AUs, and stay away from Dream and Ink. And I stay here and work for Nightmare.”
The silence following his admission was filled with something like tension, something like anger. Something like worry, but Blue was too exhausted to really look too far into it.
“You… realize that’ll… never end, right Blue Belle? That’s not…. a deal you get out of.” Horror slowly said, as if trying to get him to understand. Blue smiled up at him sadly.
“I know.”
Killer kept staring at him for a long, long moment before storming out of the room, the door slamming shut behind him. Dust stayed a little longer, seemingly deciding whether or not to say anything, before quietly leaving the same direction as Killer. Only Horror stayed, gingerly settling next to Blue on the floor, legs crossed and large red eyelight locked on him.
“…could you teach me?”
Blue blinked, confused. “Teach you what?”
“How to… make the food. Without… meat.”
Now that he knew who he had been cooking for, the dietary needs made a lot more sense. And knowing where Horror came from…
“Of course. We can start now, if you want, I’m not sure you got to finish your breakfast!”
Horror chuckled, nodding slowly. “Yeah… not so much.”
Grinning softly, he got to his feet, waiting for Horror to do the same, before sweeping his hands over the ingredients still out.
“What do you want to learn?”
Horror glanced around, taking it all in, before settling quietly on “Quiche.”

HIIIII MADIE IT’S VALENTINE HEART 💝 ANON!!! went out with him the other day (as of the sending of this ask) and wooooo girl i am breathless (though nothing life-changing has happened yet lol). are you ready for another episode of me oversharing!!!!! let’s go!!! (sorry this is gonna be a really long one, brace yourself)
sooooo first we went downtown to try to have lunch at this nice restaurant but unfortunately they were fully booked :( so we went to a local mall instead and had lunch there!! after that, we had coffee (coffee hangout fulfilled after a few months of setback because life comes at you fast 😔) and then we walked around the mall!
but before that, while we were waiting for our table to be ready, i mentioned one of my friends and how she was getting married and that she has a kid, he joked and said “ew, babies” and then he said “the only cute baby would be yours”
and then he complimented my rings! he saw that one of them was shaped like a crown and guessed that i was wearing it because i was a princess 🥺
during the lunch i mentioned how i was so cold and he said he wanted to bring a jacket “just for this occasion” but he ended up not bringing it and just wore a sweater 😔 but he made up for it in hugs hehehe
and we were talking about how i work so much lmfao and he said i could always reach out to him if i wanted to do anything awww
and thennnn so um. here comes the very interesting thing to have happened. we were. very touchy? with each other? most of them initiated by him because he kept putting his hand on my back or around me and pulling me close to him AND I MADE SURE TO LEAN AGAINST HIM SO HE KNEW I RESPONDED TO HIS TOUCHES. VERY IMPORTANT THING TO DO
also ummmm after our lunch i decided to box my leftovers and while we were walking around he offered to hold that bag and he carried it around the rest of our time together! very sweet. also the restaurant we went to used text messaging to tell us our table was ready, and it texted him again sometime after our lunch and he joked that they sent a message again because someone there thought i was cute and wanted my number… also he paid for everything (the lunch and coffee) by the wayyyy. told me right as we sat down that i didn’t need to worry about that part of the day
and um. so we passed by a furniture store. and i made a rhetorical question if the stuff they had there was comfortable, and he took that seriously and was like “do you wanna find out?” and i was like what the hell, sure, and he Immediately turned to go in and i followed. there were mostly couches and a few beds, and we basically pretended to shop for stuff for a house together????? we kept sitting on the couches to try and see how comfy they were and he kept putting his arm around me when i sat down next to him.
there was one couch in particular where it was really big and it was placed in front of this big fireplace mantel (although there were just big vases filled with plants where the actual fireplace should be). we sat together in the middle and he had his arm around me and was caressing my arm and kept bringing children up?? even though we both said we didn’t really picture having kids in our respective futures so idk what that was about. maybe he was committing to the bit or something like that. or maybe the couch was big enough for a family and it triggered those thoughts. anyway, we stayed there for a long while just kind of. sitting and cuddling?? crazy stuff here.
and everytime i would move to get off the couches he was already standing and offered his hand out to me (even though i didn’t really need any help hmmmm) and i took it everytime hahaha (and there was one where we kinda. lingered. before we pulled our hands away). there was also one couch where he was like “should we put this in the sunroom?” how crazy for him to mention a sunroom out of all things, that’s not a thing people normally think about when thinking about a house, is it??? like wow oh my god was this all improv or has he thought about this before
and then we walked around that store some more with his arm still around me and he commented something like me being his wife or something??? and there was one bed that he pointed out and went “honey, what do you think about this bed?” (i can’t remember what i said to that rip)
besides that store, there was one point where i was trying to tell him a story (can’t remember what it was, rip again) but i was so flustered with his arm being around me that i kept stuttering AND IT WAS HARD TO SPEAK MY THROAT WENT DRY LMAO and i think he noticed because he pulled away a bit to let me get my bearings back lmfaoooo
and then he eventually dropped me off back home; by this time it was already night. we were out for at least 6 hours. i stayed in his car for a bit while it was parked in front of the driveway and we talked for a bit, and then we hugged and leaned into each other (the best we could anyway while still sitting). and he was like “we should hang out again before i finish this new semester” (he graduates this summer! but he’s planning to start to move abroad to teach this fall which made me a little sad especially since idk how long he’ll be doing that for. idek if he wants that to be a permanent move or not but we’ll see if i find more details later)
anyway, i agreed and brought up how i would be off my birthday week and he was trying so hard to remember when that specific date was, bless his heart (he swore he wasn’t forgetting it on purpose, he literally has it on his calendar apparently hahaha), but i reminded him eventually. and he said he’d figure something out because he’ll be super busy with finishing up college, but he does want to try to do something for my birthday. i also brought up his birthday (which is close to mine, actually!! we’re birthday month twins!) and he was like “ohhhh my god i don’t want to be reminded of how old i’m getting” (he’s only a year older than me lol but i understand him) “forget about my birthday, it’s gonna be all about you and your birthday. it’s much more important than mine, you’re like the catalyst to everything in our lives”. HELLO???
and then it was finally time for me to leave haha and we hugged Again but it was a one-armed hug/arm-over-my-shoulder hug this time because we were holding hands with his free one????? and we stayed like that for a good moment before we pulled away and i finally left 😭
and later when he let me know he was home safe he also said he was glad to see me before before his life got busier again (with a red heart at the end awwww) 🥹
so uhhhh yeah. that was my day 😌 very fun very exciting and who knows if this’ll lead to anything (i say that everytime lmfao) but i had a really great time regardless!! also i was super giggly a lot, idk if he noticed but if he did, he did a great job not bringing it up hahaha. he also kept calling me “milady” at various points in the day hehehe and i think there was one time where he opened the car door for me (i don’t think he did it the other times because there wasn’t enough space for him to do that oops). and everytime we used the escalator at the mall he would stand right next to me and we would literally be shoulder to shoulder.
but there was this one point, while we were having coffee, where he joked for a moment going “ew love, ew couples holding hands” and idk what that was about. at least i think it was a joking moment for him? it was a bit random of him to say lol but i’m just not gonna take that seriously unless someone tells me i should. anyway, will update you of course if anything else happens anytime in the future! (and hello to anyone else who still keeps up with this! you’re all welcome to chime in; the more input the better, as they say)
bestie this is so crazy to read in the context of knowing that you guys are together now

3, 7, 12, 13, 19 and 24 for the blorbo ask game? (sorry if that's too many > . <)
(∩˃o˂∩)♡ WOOOOOOOOOOOOO Thank you for the ask, and so sorry it took me so long, I am slowly answering them !!!! (This is the best treat one can have, they are never too many, huhuuhuhuhu !!!!)
Let’s start~! Full disclosure, my Blorbo is Orikan (t.w. for horrible jokes)
3.was there any specific point / any specific moment that suddenly made this character your Blorbo, or did you slowly grow to love them more and more until they became a Blorbo to you?
I grew to love them as the book progressed. Imagine you are eating, for the first time a bowl of noodles, in the beginning, it is pretty good, a tad spicy, perfectly salty and full of flavour, the more you eat, the better it gets; after the meal something else happens, Trazyn gets some solo time; The next time you get the taste of that delightful Orikan noodle, you realized how much you enjoy it and it becomes even better. ( ¯ ³¯)♡ So yes, I love slurping that guy …….wait ! No !!!! NOT THAT WAY !!!
7.what’s the one thing the fandom gets wrong about your Blorbo?
I don’t think anyone really gets a character truly “wrong”. But a thing that I might have done that is not accurate to the canon is maybe making him way too tsundere. He seems slightly more easygoing in the books, and I admit, I am guilty of flanderizing poor Orikan!
12.do you talk to your family or in-real-life friends about your Blorbo?
Indirectly, yes, I was ranting about TIATD and its characters to my cousin, and his face lit up when he heard the name. He is very much into spiritual books, and with a title like “the Infinite and the Divine,” I cannot blame him for thinking it might be one. His disappointment in me when he learned what the book is about was hilarious~! ( ꈍ◡ꈍ)
And I am pretty sure my coworkers took notice of the following:
limited edition TIATD arriving at work
the paper back copy of the book I often have on my desk with bookmarks on a lot of pages (one quarter through bookmarking everything)
me doodling or writing in my breaks a certain intrepid cryptek
always talking about my writing and then avoiding the subject when they ask to read it
reading them the funny parts while skipping the names.
So, indirectly, I do talk about my beloved Blorbo
13.is there any crime, any wrongdoing your Blorbo could commit that would make you stop loving them and remove them from your hyperfixation entirely?
Unfortunately, yes, but luckily for me, I don’t think that BL would go there, and that would be terribly out of character for Blorbo! So I think my hyperfixation is safe! (5 years and going strong! WOOOOO!)
19.when it comes to Blorbos, do you have a type?
Yus, emotionally stunted and terrifyingly intelligent. If you make the Blorbo suffer I shall love you for eternity~!
24.if you could change one canonical thing about your Blorbo, what would it be?
This is a very good question !!! Thank you so much! I think I shall voice the most well-known dissatisfaction of the fandom because it is so widespread for a very solid reason. I would, if I could, change how Orikan turned out at the end of the book. Both him and Trazyn learned absolutely nothing and returned to their usual selves (darn it!). Maybe I could change how Orikan interpreted the events and ponder more on the lessons he learned about himself ( sprinkle some extra sadness and mental anguish too)? Or maybe not, I do enjoy him clueless as well (≖⩊≖) <3
Thank you so much for the asks !!!!!! ( ๑‾̀◡‾́)✨
#hahahah !! those are great !!!!!#sorry for taking an eternity to answer#but those questions send me to the 9th cloud!#going slowly through all!!!

@izzy-art-879 Questions: "What's it like being a dhampir?"- Numbuh 163
(Fair warning, this got REALLY long (lore drop of sorts, wooooo); be prepared for a read under the read-more! Potential TW for health stuff (nothing graphic) and vague descriptions of bullying/discrimination (again, nothing graphic); skip if you need to).
"Sooooo as I said in my last answer, I tend to get a few reactions: having to explain what it is, people freaking out, or people getting way too interested: like..."lab coats, clipboards, and testing" interested. And there's a lot of things to consider, so I'll divide it into a few sections. And of course, this is just my experience! It may not be true for all dhampirs."
Health: "I mean, I guess it does have some advantages? Dad says I might gain a couple powers when I get older, but for now, I'm a bit faster than most people, my hearing's a lot better than most, aaaaand I've got a really strong immune system- like, I don't get colds (HAHA, SUCK IT, COMMON COLD!), the flu, or chicken pox!"
"Or, at least, really strong when it comes to germs. 😅 Cuuuz my body has decided it's allergic to coconut (that one, I just get itchy and sneezy), the sun (not like "AAAAH, I'M TURNING TO DUST, AAAAH", but I break out in a rash on top of a sunburn. It, aaaah...it hurts. And it scars! I've got some from when I was really little), aaaand, of course and very in-line with the vampire genetics- garlic (THAT one is bad. Like, really REALLY bad. Mom says when I was really little, my throat closed up, and I actually had to get zapped back to life! I wasn't down for very long and it only took two zaps, buuut I did have to stay in the hospital for a bit afterwards, aaaaand now I have an Epi-Pen on hand at all times. Minerva/Numbuh 75001 has my back-up one just in case.)"
"Then there's my teeth! I have one actual fang, the other one is takin' its sweet time to come it. 😒 It likes to make its presence known like "Hi, yes, I'm here; I'm not ready to come out yet!", and my gums'll start hurting. Teething, basically. No wonder babies cry about it, it bites! ...No pun intended."
"I dunno if this one counts as a positive or a negative, but I guess another effect is that I physically age slower, too. Like I've said before, I'm 10, and most kindergartners are as tall, if not taller, than me! Heck, even some of my younger cousins- both from Mom's side and Dad's side-are taller than me!! It's not fair. >:(. Dad says that I'll get a growth spurt when I'm a teenager, but still- I hate having to need a booster seat at my age!"
Perception by Family: "...I guess, speaking of cousins, that's...another thing. My vampire cousins, especially the older ones, kinda look down on me- both in a physical and literal sense. In their eyes (and cuz vampire aging is weird), I'm still considered a baby. Some are like "oOoOo, 'tainted bloodline'!", and others are trying to get me to 'see if I can unlock the vampire side more' by trying to make me mad. I don't want that! The last thing I ever want to do is lose my temper and turn into one of them!
My younger cousins on that side aren't as bad, but some of them do forget that I can't do some of the things they can- like turning into a bat or crawling up walls. It's not like we can't play together; we find ways.
...And then there's that whole thing where some of them do actually drink...bl...eugh. I hate thinking about that!!"
"At least I don't have to worry about that bit with my human cousins? Yeah, some of them can be jerks sometimes, and I do have to be a little more careful with them- older or younger- cuz I'm a bit stronger, but. They seem to be a little more understanding with me not being able to enjoy the sun as much (or at least without a ton of protection; sunscreen, sunbrella, the works), so we have tons of stuff we do instead; our favorite are nightime barbeques/pool parties!"
Perception by Other Kids:
"'Fangface'. 'Dorkula'. 'Leech'. 'Bats-for-Brains'. And those are the ones I can at least repeat. I could always be like 'hey, you know who my dad is, right?', but that'd just make things worse- and then you could add "tattletale" to that list as well."
"People in general, but especially kids, can be cruel. Never forget that."
" Though I've noticed that the goths seem to think I'm kinda neat. And that goes for the teens and adult ones, too, so that's at least a plus! The ones who kinda get past the "fangs and can't have garlic" thing I've found are really nice. Do I still get called anything other than my name? Yeah, but I prefer something like "Little Lugosi" as opposed to "Dorkula" any day... "
"...WOW!! That got super long, I apologize! I don't imagine you wanted a novel for an answer, haha. In short: I guess you could say it's a double edge sword?"

The Cosplay Progress (?)
Okay...I'm doing it. I'm showing off the hot mess of progress of the possibly decent, or absolutely hot garbage, cosplay of my version of human!Ink. I do have a nice chunk of the items for the cosplay - just gotta put it together. Most of the putting together can be done in a day, and I have until July to finish it all, soooo...we'll see how this goes! ^^;
Now I'll just post updates maybe every other day, or once a week, since I do have most of it in hand. And it will all be under the cut, since it'll long as fuck. So, without further ado, let's begin, shall we?
First off, this is probably the most ambitious cosplay I've ever done. Normally I do something easy. Examples: Stiles from TW, casual Keith from VLD, and recently (for Halloween) genocide route Frisk. debating on positing what garbo pics i have of those
Flowerfell!Frisk? Probably the most complex I've done, and only because I had to have help make a flower crown, actually use fabric glue for the flowers and little heart on the shorts and flower on the mask , painted up a random prop stick I had lying around no idea why i had that , and did a little bit of faint make-up. And ended up with this:

bad pic i know but it's all i got of the full thing where i don't look like a drowned rat coz goddamn it was hot af
So after that, for some damned reason, I decided it would be a GREAT idea to do a difficulty jump and do Ink! Yaaaaay...I'm so smart. I have been looking at this as a reference for what I need mostly coz i had it saved on my phone already , which has been both motivation to get this done...but also a little intimidating. But I'm already too far into this. Can't back out now!
Anyways, enough rambling! Let's start with the first update on this silly thing!
HOODIE
So, firstly, I already had my eye on the Ink hoodie from @simakai's shop! I already have the Underfell one that I used for my Flowerfell!Frisk cosplay. I also have the Outertale hoodie, bi pride hoodie, and ace pride hoodie all from Simakai! They are all amazing hoodies, and I actually just bought Epic's hoodie from their new shop! Definitely check them out! They're comfy, well made, and I'll admit I wear my Outertale and Underfell hoodies out sometimes.

The pic doesn't do it justice (hence all the millions of links above), but tada! The hoodie! My biggest worry is maybe tripping on the scarf, but I think I can manage. place your bets coz my ass clumsy
Also, there is a little surprise in it!

Twas quite the laughing jumpscare when I was messing with the pockets.
And that's it for update 1! Stay tuned for more. >:3
~+~
Update 2 time!
Apologies for how garbage the pics are for this part. Space was a mess at the time, and I'm too lazy to redo it. With that out of the way...let's ramble!
PANTS
So, next to the sash for the vials, this was surprisingly the hardest thing for me to find. I couldn't find anything that looked "just right". The first pair that I bought did look just right...but the color was way off. Way too bright from what was advertised. Took me a while to find another pair, and I actually bought two more. one of which i may use for a ftfo!ink Now, the next pair is the right color...but it's just a nice pair of sweats/joggers. Which is a bit of a bummer, but seeings how I cannot sew/make a full blown pair of pants (can barely sew at all), and my stepmom (who can sew) isn't that insanely skilled, they will have to do.
Here is a pic of the pants side-by-side coz for the longest time I was going to go with the first pair I bought. But after putting it together with the top...no. Just...no. Did not look good. You'll have to take my word for it.

And before you ask, yes. I will have assistance sewing on the little suspenders. That will be two separate posts on their own in the future! It won't be just plain brown pants.
So that's it for update 2! Stay tuned for more! if you want i ain't forcing ya lols
~+~
Update number 3! Wooooo!
And it is actually really boring.
Like...royally boring. sorry?
GLOVES
So these were a bit easy to get. Granted, I did buy two pairs, because I couldn't decided initially. It was only after trying them on that I could make a decision.

They are a bit long, but I can live with that. especially coz I am not planning on doing the tatts, that would end terribly And, yes, they are missing that little piece on the pinky. Just like the pants are missing the suspenders. And just like with those, I will be having assistance sewing that piece on!
I could show you want I have of that, but I'm planning on making that one big update.
Okay! That's it! Stay tuned for update 4!
~+~
Update 4! Not another exciting one again. The more exciting ones will slowly trickle in. depending on what you define as exciting
Anywho! Update 4!
SHOES
Yes. Shoes. I know our favorite souless bean doesn't wear shoes anymore...but I have to. No need to get my toes all messed up! Especially at this convention center. Walking around there can be a nightmare! Closed toed or not. 😭
Anyway!


Shoes!
They were sadly kind of expensive, but these were the closest I could find that kind of fit for what I was going for and i looked at custom ones first. Plus, I will be wearing these outside of the cosplay. So I get shoes for cosplay, and shoes for whenever I wanna wear them - a win-win.
But, one more thing! I will also I guess ruin them, in a way. How will I ruin them? Well...I was thinking of adding more splatter to them. Plus, see that pesky logo? Welp...I also had an idea for that.

And I'll just leave this update at that. >:3
~+~
Update 5! Long time coming, I know. But a lot of what I have left are bigger pieces that have a few extra things I gotta do, and I just haven't been focused on doing them. But since I'm actually going to finish this one this weekend, I decided to show the unfinished product. With that being said, here we go!
VIALS
These were actually so hard to find! I couldn't find anything that worked! And I originally started looking during the Halloween season, too! When these type of things would be more around. But everything was either way too big or just straight up decorative glass. Which...yeah. Would not do!
Eventually, after searching for ages, I found these on Etsy.


They're originally for necklaces, which, even though they are glass, they're hopefully a tad more sturdy. And, if things work out, I'll have a perfect way to keep them in the sash! We shall see.
I also found these!

Figured it would be fun to have little earrings on human!Ink.
Now, for the paints in the vials, I was having a hard idea what to do. Part of me wanted to put real paint in there. Yeaaaaah...probably not the best idea. But I finally figured it out, and I'll be working on it this weekend!

Stay tuned for the final look!
~+~
Hello hello hello! Tis time for the final rush post of the process! It's all the final stuff, so yay. Pics of the full cosplay will be up either later on after the con, or the day after.
So, without further ado...here we go!
PANTS PART II


Tada! Simple little thing. Probably one of the easiest to do with the whole shebang. And the straps?

Ribbon. Ain't that neat? XD
GLOVES PART II
So this was a bit tricky. I had cloth from an old t-shirt to do for the pinky, but it kept making the sewing machine freak the fuck out since it's such a small piece. I did have backups of gloves that i could wear under the brown ones and cut off all the other fingers. Unfortunately, the two pairs I got turned out to be bright, obnoxious blue instead of the sort of teal-ish/mint color as advertised. So I had to get a third pair, which was a darker green and sheer. Not exactly what I wanted, but eh. Oh well. Creative liberties!


Here is the final result! I had to cut the pinky on the brown gloves too so it looked a little better. And the nail polish is close to what they'll be at the con, just more cleaned up.
SHOES PART II
Okay! Shoes! These came out a little better than I thought they would! And they were fortunately very easy to do. (Which I needed after a few things causing issues)



Tada! Fun little nod to his old shoes (before he had nada)! And of course the black "ink". The paint refused to splatter like I wanted, but oh well. Still pretty happy about it.
VIALS PART II



These actually proved to be more difficult than I anticipated. Many coats were needed, and even then they sort of still smeared oddly. Despite that, they turned out pretty great! I especially love the ink vial earrings. Those definitely were difficult due to their size.
SASH
Whoo-hoo! The sash! Fortunately, my stepmom is a sewing whiz and she helped a great deal with making sure this part of the cosplay came to be. So, here is the sash before:

Definitely was a bit rough, since the Joanne's we went to lost all momentum to care since the bankruptcy filing. And it did fray a little bit upon the cutting of the pattern. Not enough to absolutely ruin it, thank hell.
Here is the final result:

(Sorry about the poor lighting, I really had nowhere else to get a decent pic)
Tada! Vials in sash! Thankfully, they all are snug as a bug in a rug in those pockets! .... With super glue. Really didn't have a choice on that front. Still, for something as ambitious as this, something I definitely went clueless in to, happy it turned out as good as it did.
(Stepmom saved ass with this one ❤️)
WIG
Okay! This...this bitch...was a nightmare. I had never styled a wig before, and for some reason thought it would be a good idea if I did! Had a nice tutorial vid all qued up and thought I was all set! Except...the wig was an absolute tangled mess and took ages to untangle. It was also the second wig I had bought, coz the first one, for some unknown reason, was more purple than advertised. So wig number two, I had to buy in a hurry and it was a tad cheap since I'm on a bit of a budget (moving at the start of August ftw).
But, finally, after hours of fighting with this beast, this is the end result:


The braid will be pulled back into the makeshift ponytail, since I actually do have to pull it back up once it is secured onto my head, but otherwise this is the final result. The blue and pink (squint and you'll see it) are extensions I added, which also proved to be a challenge. Still proud of it all for someone who has never done more than brush a wig before! Though, never again. At least for a long ass while. ;_; thank you Dust for being an easy cosplay for next year
MAKEUP
I can't really show the full makeup I have to do until, well, it's all done, but I have tried it all out and hooray! It all works! So, instead, here is the nice pile I will have to use:

We got two different shade of eyeshadow, since I can't do colored contacts. My eyeballs are...very weird. Only one eye will allow a colored contact, and I did not wanna waste money to only use one contact. So one eye will have green eyeshadows, and the other will have yellow eyeshadows.
There's also gonna be blue eyeliner with the green eye having it on the underlid, and they yellow eye having it on the upper lid. To make it all "whimsical" and "silly".
There's a pencil liner to create the inkblot shape, black face paint to fill it in, and black eyeshadow to help make it even darker. i am a master of doing some cool shit with eyeshadow
I have two different sprays to help keep the makeup on longer. And, of course, the foundation and concealer coz I will look like a zombie otherwise lols.
Yeah...I am...gonna be having a blast with this lot. Especially making sure I can remake the really nice inkblot I did when testing it out. Fingers crossed and best wishes for my dumb ass for being so ambitious.
BROOMIE
No. I will not show this one. Just picture a wig on a stick and there you go. Needless to say, as much as I wanted to like it...I don't. It looks so bad. 99% sure I will not bother bringing bootleg Broomie with me. Makes me sad, but hey...can't win them all.
Okay, so that's it! I'll do a part two of this post since, whoops! I have hit my limit! So, with the next post, I'll have the bag I specifically got for this cosplay (and will totally be using it later), and the full cosplay itself!
And, if anyone is going to AX, I'll see you there mayhaps!
#void talks#nic talks#cosplay fun fun time#this is a wee bit stupid but eh fuck it#i do what i want#not gonna do huge tags for it coz this is just mostly for me and whoever wants to look at my ramblings

For both Sparrow and Amara. Or one of these two. However you want to answer. 5, 6 and 7. I’m just curious about their past relationship👀
OMGGG!! More about the wives! WOOOOO I'm so excited! 🤩🤩🧡🧡✨🌕☀️
5. Have they ever cheated on anyone before?
SPARROW: oh hell no! She's as loyal as a dog. Never have done it and she'll never do it. If she catches feelings for another person (hypothetically speaking, she will always love Amara. FOREVER) she would rather break up with her current partner before cheating on.
AMARA: Nope. She could do it, she has a ton of people crawling behind her, clients that offered a huge amount of money for just one night or one kiss. But she has standards and she knows and appreciates what she has. So NOPE.
6. Have they ever been cheated on?
SPARROW: Mmh no. She hasn't been cheated on. She had other issues with her ex but cheating wasn't one of them.
AMARA: Sadly yes. Before Hannah, she had an abusive boyfriend. Mostly emotional and psychological abuse. He used to gaslight her. Saying things like
"She's just a friend. Amara, stop acting paranoid."
"Are you getting crazy or something? I just had to help her move some furniture from her house. yes, it took that long."
"Do you really want to talk about cheating Amara? Do you want me to talk about your fucking job huh?!"
7. How many partners have they had?
SPARROW: one. She had one girlfriend years before she dated Amara. Things didn't turn out well and she lost her confidence to date someone else. So before Amara, she preferred things of one night.
AMARA: she had several. Maybe four. They were all men. They never ended up well, so in the end she preferred to stay single and maybe enjoy a one night stand from time to time. Until she met Hannah of course 🤭
Hehehehe this encouraged me to keep writing her story. Omg I have to update it soon.
THANK YOU SO MUCH LOVE! 🧡🧡✨

what i'm listening to november 2023. the agony
spot. link//yt link
song notes under cut
Laura Les - Haunted: haunted. by laura les.
Garbage - Queer: stand up for the fag anthem. but also let's be real one of the main draws here is the music video where shirley manson pushes the pov character down to the ground and forcibly shaves your head while singing "i know what's good for you." i'm a lesbian
Chris Fleming - W.U.G.: i've met a couple wugs in my time but more than anything i'm just on my chris fleming shit recently. this one has been stucks in my head sooo bad and bsaically anytime i see the word "guy" it comes back with a vengeance
Limp Bizkit & Method Man - N 2 Gether Now: random lb songs will really just crop up in my rotation for seemingly no reason but really this one has so many good lines and the addition of method man brings it up by so much. it's comical on some level bc it's like why is he here, he's like. a real rapper. and fred sounds so out of his depth next to him. but at the same time they both do actually really pretty good. pull the plug and then jet. MIC CHECK.
Sloppy Jane - Bark Like a God: recommended by a friend. need to listen to the full album but this goes insane goes crazy i mean those damn vocals and the THEMES ugh i mean what else do you need in this world. don't even really know what to call this band but it good and i need more
Almeda Riddle - My Little Rooster: Gummo is a 1997 American experimental drama film written and directed by Harmony Korine, starring Jacob Reynolds, Nick Sutton, Jacob Sewell, and Chloë Sevigny. The film is set (but was not filmed) in Xenia, Ohio, a Midwestern American town that had been previously struck by a devastating tornado. The loose narrative follows several main characters who find odd and destructive ways to pass time, interrupted by vignettes depicting other inhabitants of the town.
Destroy Boys - Fences: mostly just real catchy. many such cases. but there is a certain doggish quality to it as well
Enon - Natural Disasters: hi violer :3 ooh ahh the song so catchy the riff so tastey and shiney
Limp Bizkit - The Truth: i watched the band's short film of the same name recently and was pretty underwhelmed. but it did make me wanna go back and listen to the ep! it's been said to death but it's easily some of lb's best work, and not just because it's the serious one or whatever
Repo! The Genetic Opera - Night Surgeon: tbh there should be more repo on here but there's only so much space and this is undoubtedly my favorite track from the soundtrack (although "at the opera tonight" comes pretty damn close!!) i could listen to anthony head go "i remember" like that allllll day. i have been having some serious repo fixation recently i won't lie. give it a watch it's a normal movie
Foo Fighters - Everlong (Acoustic Version): okay look you guys know at this point how i get about everlong. so when i was watching hit film little nicky starring adam sandman and a rather beautiful sequence took place accompanied by a sparse acoustic version still laden in the characteristic warmth of the original song, of course i was hooked. and that's a nu metal-ass movie, too, but this was the pick i ended up making. that's special
Dropkick Murphys - I'm Shipping Up To Boston: WOOOOO BOSTON!!!!!!!! GO BRUINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET ME A CUP O DUNKS!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! YANKEES SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <is not from boston but rather a different place entirely
Fefe Dobson - Unforgiven: why did nobody tell me about this fuckin nu metal x y2k pop fusion. this is like rina sawayama stfu but all the way back in 200-goddamn-3. fefe you were before your time
MGMT - Little Dark Age: i don't know mgmt that well but i heard a little bit of this song in a youtube video long ago and really liked it and could never find it and then i happened to encounter it again and was like oh hello my old acquaintance shall we get to know each other better
Billy Joel - All For Leyna: beginning to realize that billy is good actually. every little part of this song is crunchy and sweet and delicious for me. and god i sure am doing it all for leyna aren't i......
Tom Cardy & Brian David Gilbert - Beautiful Mind: tbh this was far from my favorite effort from either of these guys...... didn't really think it was all that funny. had a very lol random sort of appeal that just didn't hit me right. however it does sound amazing, really clean, and they both have nice voices. plus you know i love them harmonies
Taco - Puttin' on the Ritz: they play this a lot at a cafe i go to sometimes. i used to not like this song but it's really grown on me. it's one of those absolutely one-of-a-kind songs that could have only been a hit at the exact time and place that it was. and i like stuff like that! you might even say i think it's super duper :)
Violent Femmes - Breakin' Up: this song is dumb as balls. and it sounds way better in my head than it does to actually listen to it. but! the video is really cool, with that simple but effective camera trick. i enjoy that
Bowling For Soup - Girl All the Bad Guys Want: if the previous song was dumb as balls, this song is dumb as. like. the epididymis. or like a single sperm cell. i don;t know man it's a dumb fucking song. but it's about a cool rap rocker girl :3 and that's meeeeee probably. when i listen to it i like to rate each lyric on how true it is. watching wrestling? maybe now and then. creaming over tough guys? hmmm no i would simply not do this. but listening to rap metal? turntables in her eyes?? now we're fuckin talkin!!!!!!!!!!

CALICO CONTINUES THE SUN AND MOON SHOW
SO, this is what, a couple weeks over due? anyway, we are continuing the Sun and Moon show BABY! WOOOOO
Anyhow, Lets Continue:
16:07 Sun and Moon Play Five Nights at Freddy’s HELP WANTED VR
Sun and Moon- and there is ALMOST no intro this time. I am so excited.
Much more chill than when they're just running around in VR and trying out skits and things.
Sun is a big baby and Moon is standing there and being quietly supportive of him, which I approve of
Sun is either angry or neurotic, I can’t tell
Moon is frankly just here to vibe, and be the counter to Suns just outright anxious energy
Moon doing the outro because Sun is to overwhelmed is really sweet
17:50 Sun and Moon Play UNO in VRCHAT
NO - oh no there is an intro but this time they are playing UNO with Circus baby and Glamrock Freddy, and Baby interrupts them to do the intro which Sun is really mad about for some reason
Circus Baby and Glamrock Freddy being a duo is strange - Like entirely different games, but eh there are worse things you could do with your time. And I don’t mind either of their voices, so they’re okay they can come back if they want to
They also seemed to have there own thing going on, on their channel, and I will not be watching it. Good for them though
They're playing Uno what more do you want from me
Sun and Moon being a duo I enjoy for a good long time
8:46 Sun Goes on a DATE with ROXANNE WOLF in VRCHAT
Pre-watch Notes:
I Don’t wanna watch this episode you guys, I really don’t
This seems like, the worst fucking Idea and I don’t wanna watch it
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The entire concept seems cringe as hell
Watch Notes:
Theres an intro! FUCK THE INTRO
The return of V-tuber Moon, who hangs out in the corner
It took me two weeks to watch this I’m not going to lie
First notes about Moon having left some of his code behind in Suns head, Which is fun, we’re like seven episodes in. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Like Sun straight up says he feels more murderous and Moon is like “Yeah, Here’s why - woops my bad”
Moon being a good brother and giving Sun a pep talk, and like - affirmations. I APPROVE IMMENSELY, and him walking sun through shit, and being a good sibling, and gently walking him through how if Roxanne doesn't wanna go out with him, that's not him and the such. I can’t wait for them to ruin this.
Moon Literally SAYS he is Aro-ace in the thing - representation, I'm so proud of the writers! Like, there's no way you would get that from a televised show. I remember them saying this in the wiki, so I'm curious if they are going to tell us if Moon has ADHD or not.
Post watch notes:
Updates, It was not cringe, nothing much happened
EXCEPT EVERYTHING HAPPENS-
This is 8 minutes, and it took me about a month to sit down and watch the thing, I am so ANGER.
THE FUCKING TITLE IS "SUN GOES ON A DATE" AND HE DOESN'T THEY JUST TALK ABOUT IT.
THE SHIT THAT HAPPENS LIKE BRO - AKLJBAOEJN - NOTHING HAPPENS THEY JUST TALK ABOUT
THEY DON’T EVEN GO ON A DATE IN EPISODE ITS JUST ABOUT HOW SUN LIKES ROXANNE
This should not have taken me this long
Though they did reveal some of the stuff that's gonna happen when they introduce Eclipse, so overall, not a bad waste of my time
