By far the most Victorcore thing I have seen in my life was just now, glancing over at my bed stand... and finding there my reusable pour over coffee filter with the dissection knife from my dissection kit sitting precariously on top of it.

For a moment I genuinely thought I was still dreaming but then I remembered I had dumped the contents of my backpack there to make room for pride stuff, and that the dissection knife had somehow fallen out of my kit case a few weeks ago and I had never put it back (which... .... Is also pretty Victorcore but that's beyond the point).

[hehehsbebd]

women who want all female care teams makes plenty of sense. Not super related to what im talking about however. That person didnt say anything about the idea of requesting an all female team but there is a trans identified man on the care team. That person explicitly said trans people cant be trusted to provide medical care, as if a scalpel is guided by being cis or not. Im all for people not being forced to deal with trauma (within reason) if thats what they need, but thats really not what she said.

I dont agree at all that pro trans crowd specifically means 1) biological denial. Some trans people understand bio sex is immutable and decide that the social benefits are worthwhile still to justify transitioning. (Lmk if you ever do see a nurse who believes sex can change at a cellular level because i haven’t seen anything to indicate there are many people who go through medical school and still think this). 2)the trans monolith disagrees with any woman ever requesting an all female care team. This is a ridiculously large group you are generalizing with a thoughtless swoop of the hand. Its silly to have a hypothetical person in your head who represents ALL trans people. As soon as you stop talking about individuals and start talking about oh every trans person thinks this way, youve dehumanised the group you are speaking about. Hypothetically Someone could say all gay people are drama queens, and since the only gay person they have knowingly met was flaming this honestly seems like the truth to them despite it being completely untrue (i know its not a great metaphor, and that one is just how you were born vs an opinion that you can hold, but they’re called metaphors, not sames)

Plenty of racist homophobic sexist medical staff already exist in the field (which sucks), so holding out for ideological purity, which this definitely is, will kill you. what if your doctor is racist? Would you deny medical care from them in a life or death situation? Or a misogynist or a homophobe or anti-abortion activist or a ctholic etc etc. What is your threshold of people who cant be allowed in medicine? Because i guarantee if we open the floor to talking about removing people from medicine, youll hear some ugly things about literally every creed. And then when you have gotten rid of every single one of them, there may be enough people leftover to stock one hospital. They are humans not robots. You cant make it illegal for people to have opinions you dont like.

Its pretty obvious to me the difference between when someone is saying that a man in a dress is a sickening idea vs people who dont believe biological reality can be changed, but are accepting of and sympathetic towards cross-dressing transexuals. Not sure which one you subscribe too, but i personally could not care less about cross dressing, as much as i care about single sex spaces for women and men remaining sacred.

Yeah im sure it shakes your faith in the medical system when a hypothetical someone who believes bio sex is transmutable, is charged with your care. Youve got my empathy here, but not an unending amount of it. People have opinions i disagree with but im not advocating for removing their rights to have jobs. Yes it goes against biology but its such a wide spectrum of belief that its totally useless as metric. One person will know they are not a man and never will be, and still transition while having a level of understanding for that, another will say that biology has no importance whatsoever and that you can change sexes on a cellular level(strangely, i rarely see these types… wonder what that means. Probably nothing to do with having to go to medical school and take advanced biology courses for a period)

If i seem bothered its because I am. Thats my sister your talking about. She buys into gender ideology, but is still a capable nurse who has touched more lives than most of the people talking shit from behind a screen ever will. How many people have you driven to the hospital? She has saved lives. Have you assisted in giving birth? Probably not, and that is fine, me neither. Alls Im saying is that it would be suicidally short-sighted to remove her right to provide medical care. Also, she is not a voice that you want removed in favour of cis nurses who have just as much capacity for foolishness. Your thinking purely in hypotheticals but that doesn’t work here. These are real people whose livelihoods depends on their jobs, AND have a willingness unmatched by the general public to subject themselves to shit pay and shit hours so shitty patients can say shitty things about them, like complain that their pillows aren’t fluffed, or that a nasty trans person is touching them.

My sister has tattoos and is a lesbian. Some people would say that should disqualify her from the medical field. You and those people are in the similar enough boats here as far as im concerned. You cant just take away the right to serve the community from a whole class of people because they might disagree with you about single sex spaces and pronouns being sacred as they are. Thats who you are talking about here, in addition to the sex is spiritual crowd.

People can contain multitudes. Should Ben carson should put those tumours back in the brains of any women he operated on because he said sexist things? Or do you think maybe they are grateful for their lives, and couldn’t give a a single shit if he ate babies for dinner every night, as long as their lives were saved? You generally dont have much in the way of right of first refusal when it comes to medical care. You take the nurses you can get, or you get the hell out of their beds and off their floor. If they only have the resources to have a care team (and again, with any single person you you meet you could find something you disagree with them on) that you disagree with, are you gonna hold out for a group who perfectly represent your ideas and opinions? Nah

What about cis nurses who arent interested in transitioning but consider it valid. Do you say they should also be run out from the field? Are nurses who still buy into mlms worth having around? What about the ones who think vaccines cause autism? Why is this the priority, and not nurses who chronically give black patients less pain medication. some of yall (not you specifically, i havent a clue which side applies to you) hate clearly trans people more than you love women. You can tells whos on radblr because this is an easy place to shit on trans people, and who is here because they are shaken by the idea that men can become women (and vice versa) and are able to recognize this isnt true without diving into homophobia.

The medical field is already so understaffed and women are dying because of it. Hospital corporations obviously could fix this, but since that cant be banked on, why on gods green earth would you want that group to become even smaller and less diverse? diversity itself isnt the be all end goal, but the medical field is one of those places you want people from all different backgrounds, otherwise you end up with white doctors who believe black people feel less pain. Male Gynaecologists who refuse to give anything stronger than a tylenol, cause women feel less pain. That babies CAN’T feel pain. Multiple viewpoints save lives.

I ask again. Do their hands not work? Can a trans person not figure out how to change a bedpan because the hormones are clogging their brain? Or help a person train to walk again? No trans EMTs i hope, cus youll have to fire them too. Just in case of course, cus you wouldnt want a trans person to make any decisions on your behalf.

And then in your tags you say nobody should be denied a job and simultaneously say that actually no trans person should be allowed into a situation where someone who needs medical help disagrees with them.

“ #but that's different than saying you have to allow people who fundamentally disagree w/youabout reality to be in charge of ur medical care. “

Im not sure it is. Do you think they should be allowed in or not? Your giving mixed signals.

‘Why am i pressed about people picking and choosing their care teams’ because thats fundamentally just not how medicine is prioritized. The gravity here is escaping you. Its not a starbucks for customizing silly little coffee orders. You are talking about teams of trained specialists that represent thousands of hours of training and knowledge you and I will never hold. Physical before psychological. Ideally both would be prioritized, but sometimes that just isnt going to be possible

Oh, sure, it’s weird for me to describe a brain specimen as cut into “bite-sized pieces” I’m “insensitive, possibly a cannibal.” But if some guy goes around cutting rat brains into thin slices to attempt to record the brain’s process of forming a memory, then he’s “a genius.”

hi sorry i was gonna send you a gif or something to destroy you but i have to ask what venom's weapon is. is it. a pole. does he. pool balls. please educate me. also i found this whatever this is

ok any time you send me anything game play-related i cant get mentally ill because i actually seriously play him in the game like also lowkey competitively (literally going to enter a tournament) so im going to be here explaining boring game terms ill try to make it simple so non fighting game players understand ok so

yes. that is a pool cue. guilty gear uses the most insane unhinged weapons ever for their characters like one of them has a yo yo and a giant scalpel and yes venom kills you with a pool cue and pool balls.

ok. so. there are four different buttons you use for attacks in the game but those two, h is heavy slash and s is slash so those are the buttons you press for those inputs. mapped to uhm god i cant even think of the buttons but you can map it to whatever buttons on a controller.

but that specifically is one of his special moves thats like the frame for it its uhm stinger aim its called that??? or carcass raid i cant remmeber what one im too sleep deprived to remember but yah if you press h or s ball goes out in that direction and bonks them and i actually really hate this input because you have to hold back and then press the button to do it and i suck at the timing yes i play competitively yes i suck (half joking i beat my friend like 30 times in a row one time as him he hated me he was so mad) but yeah thats the input sorry if you have more questions about him feel free to ask but if its a normal question i fear i will not be as coherent the only thing i am coherent about is gameplay frame data special moves etc etc etc

now please dont send me that gif to destroy me

[slashingdisneypasta]

Ok... We all know that toons, especially animal toons, probably wouldn't reflect their real counterparts, the same SHOULD apply to the toon patrol as well.. But these facts that I learned about weasels are just too great, and I need to share with you since we both like the Toon Patrol XD

Well for starters, weasels can take down prey that's much larger than them. Considering that the TP is a gang and alot of people are taller than them, this checks out.

The weasel will perform a sort of 'war dance'. Our best guess as to why they do this is that this is supposed to confuse the prey (I'd be confused too if my opponent just starts dancing erratically out of the blue). Can you imagine if the toon patrol just broke out in a dance number before fighting somebody? (Maybe that's why they lost against Valient, they weren't ready and couldn't do their war dance yet XD)

Weasels' fur will turn white in the winter. I would be genuinely surprised if this turned out to be canon, but can you imagine how hilariously frustrating it would get for them? Especially if it snowed (in Toontown, since snow doesn't happen in LA)? They'd all have to play Marco Polo when out in the streets, especially with Psycho who wears his white straight jacket XD

According to an article, with how relentless and ruthless they are, weasels are considered natures psychos... And one of the Toon Patrol members is named Psycho... I'm not sure if the directors did that on purpose or not, but if not that would have been a missed opportunity XD

Weasels store food they don't eat and save it for later. And i think i read sonewhere that their also theives and store what they find too? I can actually see this being canon for the Toon Patrol, but in a more toony way? Like each weasel just has their own little storage/collection that they hoard. Either that or it would be literal here and they would keep their fridge stocked all the time. Which do you think it'd be? And if the former, what do you think they'd collect? (I think we all know what Greasy would collect...)

And last but not least, this gold mine of a fact right here.

Ok thats enough animal facts today. I hope you have fun imagining these applying to the TP, or if not just enjoy some random animal facts XD

AHHHHH YES! More of it!!

First of all- a boogle? XD A sneak?? XD A c o n f u s i o n ???? I love all those, that's so good XDD

OMGG the war dance! Eddie did a dance!! Maybe thats why Smartass was so stumped! Like, no- no- He's using our method against us! What do I do!-

Oooooh, the turning white one! What if thats why the others wear such bright colours, so they're recognisable not by their looks- but their colours! But Psycho uses the snow as an advantage (I can see him being the most instinctual of them all)... all you see is a pair of swirly eyes bobbing around just before you get jumped.

NATURES PSYCHOS!! Oh for sure XD I love that.

Ooooh, so they're little kleptomaniacs! That's kinda perfect actually, I can imagine them all just plucking stuff up as they go and putting them in their pockets for later ^^ And oh, yeah, we can assume Greasy collects like... ladies underwear... 🤦🤦 Smartass probably likes little fancy things, like engraved silver lighters and music boxes. Wheezy also likes lighters, obviously, but also good probably stands out to him (I like to think he's the most level-headed of the group, I don't know why, he is the one with the intense addiction after all but I just have a feeling 😅😅). Stupid probably cant help but take sweets when he sees them, and he and Wheezy will share with each other at the end of the day (The are part of the same Boogle!! XD). An I can see Psycho taking sharp things. Knives, needles, scalpels, tooth picks, earring studs, etc.

Thank you so so so much for sending these in! They're all great and I'm definitely incorporating some into Weasel writings! ^^

[strapinandstraponyourstrapons]

yeah this scene absolutely fucks with me how his finger is just hovering over the button to call scott, and he probably hates himself so much in that moment for everything he did in the past and for whats happening to him and for feeling such weakness, and hes terrified because hes all alone and vulnerable. the only people he sees are cops telling him to move without a care in the world for why a teenage boy is sleeping in his truck. and the embodiment of fear itself just attacked him, a literal spider crawling under his flesh that he had to carve out himself with a mirror and a scalpel. and he still cant bring himself to call for help, doesnt think he deserves to, cant stand to let himself be so vulnerable even when his life depends on it.

on ANOTHER (less angsty) note. anyone notice how this scene ends with the hunters shooting up his truck which literally makes no sense because the point of this scene is that they capture him and take him to be interrogated by monroe? and its also a continuity issue because although theo's bullet wounds could have healed before the next scene he would have bullet holes and blood all over his clothes and his truck too. we also never see him getting the truck back later, he just has it again when they get to the zoo, miraculously unscathed.

yes i went to film school and it did nothing beneficial for my mental health so now i criticise continuity issues in media thats several years old and that i only watched so i could see traumatised hot guys standing near each other and occasionally looking at each other in A Way

someone on twitter pointed this out and i think it’s just for the visuals of the shot but um theo’s truck was parked on the train tracks so yeah group therapy session right now besties let’s go

Hi! I hope that you are doing well on this fine day. This is a bit of a specific ask: can you come up with any one liners and prompts for enemies-to-lovers but the characters are med students? I'm writing a med student au.

I'm more than happy to do anything that's enemies to lovers (I knew watching medical dramas would come in handy eventually).

Enemies To Lovers Med Students OTP Prompts

Prompts

A and B argue so much that they get punished with the graveyard shift for a week. As they spend long hours in the dark, silent hospital, they realise that their counterpart isn't so bad after all.

A finally gets a few days off when they get a call from B. Turns out B is extremely sick, cant take care of themselves and called A to take care of them since A is the only doctor they know who's off work.

A thinks B is tough, cold and uncaring. That is, until A finds B breaking down crying after losing their first patient.

A and B both study in the library at night since they're both insomniacs and that's when it's most quiet. Their competitive nature gets the best of them and they start quizzing each other to see who's smarter.

A gets into a (not serious accident) and the hospital sees this as a learning opportunity. B is tasked with taking care of A, despite both of their very vocal protests.

Oneliners

"Since we're both up late, you might as well help me study"

"One more word out of you and I'll use this scalpel in ways you can only dream of" "Kinky"

"I hate that you waltzed through medical school, I hate how you work for days and never look tired, I hate how you never have to work for anything, and I hate how hot you look in those scrubs!"

"I got you a coffee" "You probably spit in it too"

"I want to help you become a good doctor. Is that so hard to believe?" "Yes, actually"

"You shouldn't be dating them" "You jealous?" "What? No! Thats insane! You just have a lot on your plate with your studies and you probably cant properly commit to anyone right now" "You're jealous"

Horoscopes

Leo-stop itching it! I think you’re just making it worse, and that collar is definitely not good. You should have a doctor look at that. Doctors love to look at gross things.

Virgo—word to the wise: pelican. I mean, thats this months password to get into the club where the wise people hang out, and if you don’t know where the club is, it probably isn’t meant for you. Maybe go hang out at the TGI Fridays instead.

Libra—everything you needed was inside you all along. You only had to look within. Use a surgical scalpel and this flashlight. The stuff you’re looking for will be in a blue velvet bag. Good luck.

Scorpio—the fates would like you to know that while your scones are definitely delicious, they are maybe, just a little dry. Just, like, a little more milk, maybe? I mean, is it fated that you make less dry scones, Steve?

Sagittarius—while ususally “how much wood can a woodchuck chuck” is a fun children’s riddle, today, it will become, for you, for you a life or death question.

Capricorn—you will achieve your dreams. Every single night you will fall asleep and achieve dreaming your dreams. Good job. Everything else is up in the air but at least you have that.

Aquarius—what’s the worst that could happen? How hard can it be?

Pisces—follow your passions. Success is entirely based on luck and generational wealth, so you might as well.

Aries—😉🪦👍💯

Taurus—today will be a good day. Not necessarily for you, but for someone, surely.

Gemini—in answer to your next five questions, 1) yes 2) at the bottom of the sea 3) an off brand lemon lime soda 4) no no, please no 5) your twin brother Filipe

Cancer—no horoscope today. Your fate is boundless. The world is yours. It sounds terrifying. Better you than me.

Tma season 2 notes baybeee

I made myself take several breaks so I could give my frie d who is listening to it at the same time as me a chance to catch up. Honestly just posting them so I have them saved somewhere but whatever.

ep 41: real graham wrote keep watching before he was replaced. Jon feels like he's being watched. But they werent replaced by things related to the eye. It's the web that's on the box that replaces them. Endless hallways and doors to nowhere. I bet nicholas will have ideas what entity this relates to. If it even does. They're like the tunnels in the one with the builder guy. Tunnels closing in etc. Also like the cave diving one. He's assuming it's just one

ep 42: so 100 gecs? (IM SORRY I LIKE 100 GECS BUT LMAO) so there's some entity related to music right? There's the piper episode and the 27 w/ the calliope. Ah yes, this season is gonna be the season of Paranoid!Jon

ep 43: section 31? fucking books. god no. smashed lights? cult lady did that. covered the lights too. she mentioned a spooky clown doll. thats not random.

ep 44: is this that same circus that got mentioned before? it is! the pipe organ! pop off organ! pipe off! mouth on the stomach! yes! mouths in unusual places my beloved!

ep 45: antiques! like that one ep!

ep 46: every time books get mentioned i sigh. hhh sus smells. it got brighter. I get the vibes occasionally that the dark and the eye are sorta at odds with eachother. GRRR BARK BARK LEITNER. ayyy ex altiora. entity go brr. which entity do we thing it is? my guess is The Dark. The book buyer's name is Mike. He has scars? Electricity? The childhood friend of the guy who got it later on perhaps? The Vast? its formatted like an entity idk. This happened before the other one. He got trapped in the wood carving. a win for the web lol spiders go brr

ep 47: did i hear spiral? ITS THE NOT THING FROM THE EPISODE WITH NOT GRAHAM "it didnt move, it shifted" is like the exact same sentence as before. ay john's starting to remember. the laughing woah thats weird. is "michael" one of the entities? "you make it seem like theres a war" supports my theory that theres a struggle between a couple of the entities. I said i thought it was the eye and the dark i believe but im not sure. its whatever entity michael is vs the worms? what did nicholas say the worms were again? The Corruption? still dont know which one michael is tho.

Had to take a break after that episode. smth about the quality of michael's voice makes me feel like im gonna slip into one of those states where it feels like nothing is real, so i got a nice cold glass of water.

ep 48: jesus ok this one's kidna corny. you're telling me love made the crowd go away come on now. Ur losing it big J. also shouldnt it be more sus that "sasha" is so unaffected by the worm incident/ finding of gertrude's body

ep 49: haven't we heard hector's name before? oh is he the crime guy? fucking jared... so it's a throat? chompa chompa. (it's just a little bit hot) the good part about these episodes is that we know whoever's telling the story isn't gonna die. even if it's a close call, they're not dead. hotworth? ok not jared keay. it bothers me how theres so many repeated names, can they not come up with other names? "sasha"'s computer is breaking... sus. Elias our favorite weed man! jon ur so paranoid lmao

ep 50: robert smirk, at it again. this is like that one episode with the old dude who locked his door. who said idle beforehand? was it smirk? fingertips. thats so weird lmao. bahahah tim

ep 51: simon fairchild. im sure jon will mention the name at the end i cant remember where we've heard it. this is just like the cavediving episode. a hand? there was a hand in the last one right? the scalpel! and an eye thing. she's trying to throw them off.

ep 52: thats the guy from before! with the hearts! god i hate this guy writing the statement hh. lights blowing, and brackish water. we know how this ends but its still tense. rainer? reigner? rain man. we've seen him before

ep 53: pls not a leitner. oh boy mans scratched out his eyes. rip skelly. why would gertrude have had this statement off the books? jon stabbed himself?? bruh im? big man are you okay

ep 54: cockney boys! ayy its our favorite delivery men. she cut out their eyes. she knew that the eye was a thing?

ep 55: oily residue like the retirement home!

ep 56: worms? no. spiders?? bruhh. aaah yelling :(( aww martin anyways yeah i called it about paranoid!jon he needs to take a nap and drink some hot chocolate and calm down for once please

ep 57: just remembered, i think theres an entity called The Lonely?? This feels pretty lonely idk. fairchild, lukas/ lucas, some spooky place in norway idk. "sasha" knew he was recordinig hmm suspicious cmon jon figure it out. Sasha and tom. hm sus. for records sake i feel liek i should note here that I did have it spoiled to me simply that that's not sasha, but thats really all. i assumed it was like the thing that happened to graham in S1

ep 58: i feel like i recognize the name eustice (?) wick. someone please tell me im not just watching jon's descent into madness over the course of this podcast. im hoping it isnt so but, (and pardon the dsmp reference) im getting real wilbur vibes from this one.

ep 59: oh dear ok account from the fielding house. swirling designs? Spiral time? oh boyy. oh wait! 6 inch hole in the middle! is it not a spiderweb type design on the table? thats what i had assumed but that description sounds more like a spiral thing. cobwebs is a Web thing. ayy nicholas was right! the box goes in the table! the place that she kissed him was burning. Raymond is an avatar of The Web and agnes is the burning one. Lightless Flame! Why did she save him? i guess she was against this guy eating ppl or wtvr but why was she at the halfway house then? I think she's like michael.

ep 60: the eye go brr

ep 61: breacon and hope once again. tom. sasha's boyfriend. vampires sleep in coffins. the guy just walking in seems similar to the mind control of the vampires

ep 62: bones! its that one leitner. is this mother keay? the mom of gerard? this is what happened to her right? her skin was found on hooks? oh yeah thats what i thought the pages are made of skin. yeesh. The End!! sounds like an entity. phrased like one, and i think i remember it. are the people trapped in the pages? or... kept?

ep 63: eaten by the darkness! cavediving episode! (just like eaten by the sky) did my brain make up one called The Vast? it feels like it should be one, and all these episodes have some similar description about their feelings when they do whatever chosen hobby they have. ok now this one kinda feels like the dark. lights going out and all that. ok so not really a The Vast thing, its more of a Dark thing. feckin smirk gah.

ep 64: dice! the death guy! the death game thing! the person tricked somebody else into becoming death and then they were immortal? but if the egyptians wanted to kill him or punish him or whatever couldnt they just kill him? it worked in the end when he had the person giving the statement stab him, that did the job and actually killed him

ep 65: finally jon is actually acknowledging something is wrong.

So we know Mary Keay was revived most likely with the book by gerard.

Gertrude was way more aware of the entities than Jon. mary keay referenced The End openly and she cut the eyes out of her magazines and all that which makes me think she was aware of The Eye

ep 66: please not buried alive pleeaase not buried alive. lukas of the tundra? didnt we hear the name lukas before? she wanted it to be difficult to find important files because that way bad people couldnt find them?

ep 67: agnes... the girl in the hilltop house? agnes poppin off!! he's really not gonna question how she knew where he lived?? oh no D: the tree. were they the ones working on the house? aww they kissi- OH DEAR. why did she kiss him? it seemed like she cared about him? also she could kiss that other dude on the cheek and he was fine, but maybe it was cuz she was younger? lightless flame go brrrrr.

ep 68: oh god books. yup its bitchboy leitner. mans said "this seems supernatural, its a werd book!" bruuh.

ep 69: heh nice. aw cmon jon listen to martin. gahhh spiders. is that the class we heard about in the other doctor one with the teeth apple? some kind of psych class? oh dear. fucking spiders. aaaah. web do be goin brr. it's like the girl in the homeless shelter! who made the guy leave and she took his bed.

ep 70: is this gonna be the book that mary keay had? Most likely a leitner no matter what. Oh boy latin. Why did it start in latin then become old English? I'm guessing people put them in the book? He cant burn it. Phrophecies go brr. He says eh it's a decade in the future it's fine. Its gonna have changed. Ayy called it. Just accept it, it's a magic book. His death is getting closer. Leitner didnt make them but just collected them? Gertrude burned the book! She burned them down there so no one would know.

ep 71: oh boy tunnels. Our favorite thing /s. is The Buried a thing? Idk this seems pretty buried. Oh dear he's trapped here isnt he. "Not enough space to move, never enough to breathe" is that from the computer episode? With the guy who uploaded his consciousness? Somebody living down there. Hmmmm. Guesses: tom, sasha's boyfriend. Gertrude herself? (Though I doubt it)

ep 72: sweeney todd moment. Meat. The slaughter? Idk we'll see what the supernatural part is. Meat is meat. Similar to the slaughterhouse episode. Is it fucking Jared I swear to God it better not be. Hooligan teenagers, you know how it is. Meat is me lmao. Is the kid gonna be in the freezer. Ok that's good. OWW. Oddly textured candles. Made from people? Human fat or smth?

MICKEY IM PICKING U UP AND SPINNING U AROUND i dont even know where to begin this made me INSANE….

like ok first of all…. the morning after. I CRIED THEYRE SO WHIPPED . THEYRE SO REAL. i melted. them just STARING all lovesick and the light in the room is illuminating reader’s features the curve of their waist etc etc (i started drooling TRUST I WOULD BE RIGHT THERE W THEM)

I DONT THINK SUGU IS OOC AT ALLLLLL this is canon to me actually. i think he is a loverboy at heart like theres NOTHING he wouldnt do for his beloved yknow… all domesticated and ready to service them in any way possible MICKEY WE’RE SO IN SYNC i love the idea of him being so pliant and sweet w reader and THEM TURNING HIM …. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 we’ll get to that later. (but it did make me jump up and down in what i can only describe as mania so ty for that <333)

OH AND AND AND!! UR A GENIUS the bite helping sugu out of a bad place…… i wonder if he sees reader as his salvation. its so interesting to me and also kinda twisted bc vampirism should be a curse right?? so for him to see it as a blessing….. i need to dissect him mickey hand me my scalpel

AND GOJOOO YES I WAS THINKING EXACTLY THAT TOO like he’s just so eager so ready to please?????? reader just tilts his chin up w their finger and gives him a smile and they have him like a dog at their feet ….. insanity

but okay. mickey we need to talk abt this because u are genuinely making my brain rot from the inside and i fear i cant take it anymore 😔😔

"mary is the girl that leaves you to rot" maybe the reader is a bit of a collector? both of the boys wanna impress them so much bc they're a little afraid that they'll leave them behind and find new toys to play with?

^ HELLO?????????? THIS …. JUST ……. have i mentioned that i love you that i am in awe of u etc etc etc THIS IS THE TASTIEST CONCWPT EVER MY BRAIN IS . EXPLODING i was thinking of reader when i mentioned that lyric too hehe we are LINKED

NONO bc this is just so genius …… i def picture reader being like . just a little twisted yknow. especially if theyre the only pure blood vampire in the group (if thats even like . a Thing in this au phdjfhjd) like gojo is human, geto has been human… and then there’s reader.

THIS IS RLLY JUST ME SAYING WHATEVER COMES TO MIND PSBJD so it might not align w ur own thoughts but !! i am just so excited to talk to u abt stuff like this <333 like i wonder if reader really does see human beings as a form of entertainment whether their food or something else…. maybe choosing only to turn humans that theyre particularly fond of. calling them a collector is soooo sick and twisted mickey but its also so good i fell to my knees whyyyy are ur readers always so interesting …..

and!!! sugu and gojo being a little afraid that reader will leave them behind…. oh its SO angsty im so invested u dont even KNOW. the idea of suguru in particular maybe being a little jealous of the attention gojo is getting (while also obviously being enamored w him cmon now)….. him being so sickeningly devoted to reader……… acting calm and collected and assured but if reader even hints at leaving him behind he just crumbles into dust STOP NOW UR MAKING ME THING ABT ANGST 😥😥😥

like. i really do feel like reader loves him since they call him their beloved husband and so on but !! idk its so interesting …….. like im so excited to hear ur thoughts on vampires and how their emotions maybe differ a bit from humans?? IM JUST . yeah. this made me insane it also made my day i LOVE u mickey ty for feeding us all <333

MICKEY this came to me in a vision and i need to hear ur thoughts but…. for the vamp!geto x human!gojo x vamp!reader au………. 👉👈 mary by alex g. what r we thinking ;;;;; IM JUST. 

mary is the girl that i wanna kiss // she’s got big red eyes and big red lips // she’s got big sharp teeth and big fat hips …….. give it to me, baby, i feel good // i wanna feel whatever you think i should ………. AM I GETTING THE VIBES RIGHT ARE THEY THERE…… mary is the girl that leaves you to rot …………. they have consumed me genuinely

HIIIIIIIIIIII ARIII!!!! omg i love that song................ (alex g oughta start paying for my therapy smh) at first i had more darker songs in mind cue closer by nine inch nails and glory box by portishead and keep your eyes peeled by ultra sunn BUTTTTT when i this i immediately thought about their 'morning after' - i can totally see it playing in the background when gojo AND geto are lazing on the massive bed and the reader is getting ready and both of the boys are just staring at them with hearts in their eyes just absolutely awestruck

i think in geto's and reader's relationship the reader takes more of a lead yk they bit sugu anyway too. geto acts tough AND HE DEFINITELY CAN BE TOUGH but when it comes to the reader he can't help but be soft, let them do whatever. "she's the only girl i wanna love" i'm also thinking that reader helped geto out of a bad place with the bite too

with gojo it's definitely the "give it to me, baby, i feel good // i wanna feel whatever you think i should" he's sooooooooooo bewitched for him at first it's so much about the curiosity and the pleasure and the fun of it and he's ready to do whatever the readers wants

"mary is the girl that leaves you to rot" maybe the reader is a bit of a collector? both of the boys wanna impress them so much bc they're a little afraid that they'll leave them behind and find new toys to play with?

Dark Crystal Age of Resistance ep 10 liveblog

“A Single Piece Was Lost”

I don’t have a ramble about the title this time. I’m pretty excited to see how this all wraps up though. Or slightly wraps up while leaving things open. Whatever.

Just a stream of thoughts.

Hi Deet! 

Hi Rian! 

I quite like this low energy opening showing them waiting for the battle in the morning-

NOPE SOMETHING JUST EXPLODED

Deet, what did you explode?

Rian: “Deet… have you been making bombs?”

Deet: “Well, smoke bombs, so yes?”

Just when I thought Deet couldn’t be better.

Rian reflecting that they’ll need a lot of smoke bombs, probably to run away, if no other Gelfling show up.

Rian: “I was just thinking, I never got to properly see the Caves of Grottan. We should go back together when this is all over.”

Awww. 

Oh shit Deet’s arms are secretly glowing with evil energies. I have a bad feeling about things.

Emperor: “Do you sleep?”

General: “??? Yes, sire”

Emperor: “Do you dream?”

General: “No my Emperor”

Emperor: “Neither did I, until I began my experiments with the Darkening. Now my nights are riddled with nightmares.”

And now he’s asking the General if he remembers how things were before they were sundered. The Emperor is philosophical today.

Then he gathers a bunch of Darkening.

The Gruenaks run into the Chamberlain and they want to be freed and Chamberlain is like not yet my dudes, things are going great for me and thats what matters.

Ice cold, SkekSil

Aww the Scientist build some new armor and he wants to join the other Skeksis and prove that he’s a rough and tumble strong boy like the rest but the General and the Emperor just laugh at him and tell him to stay behind and do the nerd stuff.

Poor guy. Poor evil guy.

The other Skeksis have no respect for him but he’s the only one still doing what the UrSkeks were about.

OH HEY ITS BREA hi Brea. Last episode, everyone gathering up again.

Maudra Fara: ‘Hey Rian we cool? Sorry I called you a traitor’

Oh no, Brea and Seladon have to tell Rian and Deet that Aughra died.

Yeah, the Dual Glaive is pretty cool. Appearance wise. 

Rian: -stares wonderously at Dual Glaive for a while-

Ok no disrespect but you’re bringing the Ornamentalist to war and think the Scientist is too big a nerd??

Chamberlain: -waving sword around- “WARRRRRRRRRRRR”

Most of the Skeksis preparing for war sequence seems to be them psyching themselves up by screaming war at each other.

The Gelfling preparation sequence has them like training and getting outfitted.

Just saying, one group is taking this more seriously.

Scientist: “I am incontrovertibly the most abused creature in all of Thra”

Gruenaks: =|

The irony is, of course, lost on SkekTek.

Scientist: -pokes frakensteined spiders corpse with random electricity- ‘Well thats not working’

-Proto-Garthim goosplodes all over the Scientist for like a minute straight-

Scientist: “There is only so much callous disrespect a Lord of the Crystal can endure! I have earned a bit of genuine frivolity!”

Turns out that he hid some extra essence in his animal cages so he can hit the goofy juice in times of stress. 

The Gruenaks pick up the scalpel. Whoops. Wonder what they’re up to.

Over at the circle of the sun, the Archer is lingering between life and death because of the Aughra essence effect on the Hunter.

Apparently the Scientist’s idea of genuine frivolity is to sit on the Emperor’s throne and pretend to be the Emperor and have podlings play him music and bring him food and call himself Emperor.

Thats. Sure an idea.

OH HI SKEKMAL IS ALIVE AGAIN

And he tears himself free of the strings holding him up, probably confused at all of this, and asks where Rian is.

When Scientist tells him that Rian is at Stone-in-the-Wood and that the Skeksis went to quell the uprising, Hunter calls Scientist an useless coward.

Scientist: “The Emperor commanded me to stay behind. I wanted to fight! I’m not a coward!”

Poor evil guy. This is why he wanted to prove he was a rough boy. Now the Hunter is going to be looking down on him.

Archer bolts up and mummer shouts SKEKMAL and then collapses.

Heretic: “Well…”

Wanderer: “That was… exciting…”

Heretic: “Yes!”

I love these nerds.

So the Skeksis bring: giant swords, nothing else.

They’re not really prepared for anything other than lumbering towards something and killing lots of stuff.

If only the Gelfling had a strong archer class. Instead of being all melee. 

Even Kira in the movie knew how to pack a sling.

Emperor sees the small amount of Gelflings that have shown up.

Emperor: “This… is the mighty rebellion I was promised?”

He actually sounds disappointed. Hes had to leave the castle for the first time in a long time and its for this.

Rian: ‘The rest are coming! Really!’

Also Rian: ‘Hey how about single combat?’

Chamberlain: ‘Hey uh Emperor this is beneath you? Let General do it’

General: ‘If my bff Chamberlian thinks its a good idea, I’m in.’

The General hits but also maneuvers like a freight train. But Rian really sucks. He’s just  getting tossed around and almost having his puppet junk- Oh there he goes. He stabbed the General.

The Dual Glaive starts absorbing. The General’s…. Something?

General: “Be done with it! Kill me!”

Rian: “I’m no killer!”

HOW DO YOU THINK THIS IS GOING TO GO?

The Skeksis are literally trying to wipe out your entire race and you’re playing the high very high road??

Then the Emperor tells General to gtfo because he’s a failure and the other Skeksis mock mock him as he limps away because the Skeksis love to see each other fail.

Oh, this is some actual cool strategy.

The lady gelfling vault off the male gelfling’s backs and fly around dropping bombs to disorient while the swords gelflings jump in and start poking ankles.

Oh I guess the Skeksis did bring more than swords. They’ve got… boomerang launchers? On their backs? Boomerang catapults?

Its pretty unwieldy but Scroll-Keeper still manages to hit Maudra Fara when she shoves Seladon out of the way to protect the All-Maudra who she acknowledges now that shes not being a dingus.

And then sheee dies.

But on her own time because a fizzgig steals Scroll-Keeper’s sword and hides it in a hole.

I’m overall getting the impression that the Skeksis are dangerous because they’re big and strong but they’re not very good at this.

Greunaks cutting their own mouths open with the scalpel they found. Annnd Scientist finds them.

Greunak: “No! No slave!”

Scientist: “How dare you threaten me? I am SkekTek the Scientist! I am a master of llfe and death! I am a genius! I am a Lord of the Crystal! I… AM… SKEKSIS! -incoherent yelling-”

He grabs them so they shock him with the electrical wires which I think shorts out his eye.

And. Geez. Rebellion doesn’t work too well when you’re a third of the size.

He just picks up one of the Gruenaks and hucks him down the fire hole.

Oops and he just hacked the other one to death.

Put upon and bullied he may be but he’s as bad as the rest of the Skeksis really.

Scientist: -maniacal laughter-

I think he’s going to use the Gruenak corpse to help finish the Garthim.

So the battle is still… going.

ANd I can’t help but think that what would really help here is a shield wall or something.

Gourmet: -flailing and panicking as a Gelfling climbs on his back and punches him in the head or something-

Chamberlain has found where the General has crawled off to.

General: “Friend SkekSil, help me”

Chamberlain: “Mmmm no. -stabs- You…. took… my…. Seat!”

Wow, SkekSil can hold a grudge.

Oh and General crumbles as soon as he dies. So I guess SkekMal really wasn’t dead.

Speaking of SkekMal he just showed up and and captured Rian and broke the Dual Glaive. I say broke but this is why weapons that have to be assembled aren’t as reliable. They’re made to fall apart and fall apart they will. It’s possibly a metaphor.

Speaking of a metaphor, the Archer has regained consciousness and has  gone for a walk.

Archer: “I had a dream that I was one that became two. The hunt must end.”

And the walk that he’s taking is off the circle of the sun which is a very tall place.

Hunter: “I have conquered death! I have become more powerful! More powerful than Thra itself! Nothing can stop the hunt!”

Archer: “Now we shall see what lies at the dream’s end” -jumps off circle of the sun-

Hunter: -crumbles to dust-

Archer hasn’t even hit bottom yet. He just knows that he’s gonna die so he starts turning into sparkles midfall.

OH HEY!

Aughra reformed from the Hunter!

Scroll-Keeper: “Oh no, not her again!”

Rian: “Aughra are you alright?”

Aughra: “Of course not, I just returned from the dead!”

Aughra tells the Skeksis that they better retreat to the castle or she’ll mess them up. Emperor is like I’ll call that bluff.

And then…. ARROWS! The gelfling learned archery!

OH HEY ALL THE CLANS! ALSO THE ARATHIM!

Emperor: I WILL NOT LOSE, NO MATTER THE COST! BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE DARKENING!”

And his staff burns with an awesome power and then everything starts exploding. Wow look at the gelfling popping into the air

DEET! 

She’s absorbing all of the Darkening!

Skeksis: -laughing at whats happening-

Emperor: ‘ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff’

Deet: “Get away from my FRIENDS!”

And then she explodes into force lightning like Darth Deet

Mostly hitting the Collector

Collector: “That wasn’t so bad!” -explodes-

Skeksis: ‘RUN AWAY RUN AWAYYYY’

Chamberlain has to shake the Emperor out of his stupor to get him to run and for this earns Most Trusted Advisor role again.

All the gelflings are congratulating each other which I find funny because they didn’t do anything mostly except show up. But Rian and me are like hey wheres Deet.

Seladon throws herself at Aughra

Aughra: “Guess you want a hug? Alright.”

And Gurjin is like hey I’ll hug whoever. Free hugs.

And an Arathim takes him up on it.

Gurjin: “!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???? Well, why not”

More Gelflings want hugs

Aughra: “Give me some space. I may be newborn but I’m still old!”

THE CRYSTAL SHARD WAS HERE ALL ALONG? IN THE DUAL GLAIVE?? That was a double ‘was here all along’ pull! Wow!

Aughra: “Gelfling, the shard calls to you. You fought well. And tomorrow, tomorrow three suns rise on a new world. And nothing will ever be the same. We have made new enemies. And lost old friends. But the fallen are not truly gone. They have joined the song of Thra once more. Listen… and you will hear them on the wind. For the song has changed. It sounds like hope. But take care. Hope is fragile. Hope is delicate, like a crystal shard. Once lost… now found. And easily stolen.”

HEY UM DEET WHATS GOING ON WITH YOU

She just wandered off looking sithly sickly and making the plants die. Whats happening to good ol Deet??

Aughra: “This victory does not belong to a single gelfling or a single clan! It belongs to all of us! All of Thra, united! This day, the many become one!”

Brea: -holds up crystal shard to transition into the movie theme-

Scientist: ‘HEY WHATS UP JUST CREATING THE GARTHIM AND SIGNALING THE DOOM OF THE AGE OF RESISTANCE IS WHATS UP I’LL SHOW THEM FOR CALLING ME A NERD’

Other Skeksis limp back to crystal chamber.

Chamberlain: “Well look on the bright side, we still live!”

Other Skeksis: -whine sob-

Scroll-Keeper: “Poor Collector! SkekLach never harmed anyone who did not deserve it!”

Hell of a qualifier.

Chamberlain spins the General’s last moments to make himself seem like a cool guy.

Oh. So Garthim is Gruenak plus Arathim.

And so the first Garthim is born. Which will ultimately net SkekTek no respect judging by the Garthim-Master, the guy who made his reputation on SkekTek’s creations, treats him in the movie.

Poor, poor Scientist.

So that was Age of Resistance season 1. I quite enjoyed it overall. I have some overall thoughts and quibbles that I might do another post for. But overall I quite enjoyed it.

My primary thought is “rude to not have a second season announced yet.”

[houseki-no-suffering]

here’s my @housekinoexchange​ gift for @elluka​.This was partially inspired by this fanart by @kace ty to @pancakethepikachu​ for editing it <3

title: “Until we get it right” summary: It is rare for a gem to be born, is it rare to be a lustrous. But if I could make one wish, I'd wish to be born again with you as many times as it takes. Until we get it right. characters: goshenite, morganite 

hope you like this short fic. it was my first time writing these characters but i had fun <3 happy holidays

A/N: this story assumes that goshe and morga have reincarnated as lustrous at least three times:

- the first: a little after red diamond was taken (hence me creating two ocs and referencing fluorite), when patrol had just been invented. none of the gems in the current timeline remember this time, it was too long ago - the second: the 'old' morga and goshe from canon. i hc them as a little younger than peri and sphene, so you still get some cameos of dead gems, like bluezo and chryso - the third: 'new' goshe and morga, that is the goshe that goes with phos and the morga that stays on earth

since 'old' and 'new' morga and goshe have different personalities in canon, i thought that it must be the case for a previous reincarnation as well, thats why 'ancient' goshe and morga are a little different

-----------

“It is rare for a gem to be born. It is rare to be a lustrous.”

Sensei’s words resonate inside Goshenite’s mind as they pace around the dome, feigning calm. Their hands are clenching and unclenching around the hilt of their sword. Every ten steps, Goshenite can’t resist taking it out of its scabbard with a long ‘swoosh,’ practicing and practicing until they think it looks close enough to how the seniors do it. There is one sibling in particular they want to impress.

Goshe doesn’t know what to expect from their first day of work. When Fluorite patted their head earlier that morning, they wouldn’t stop reminding Goshenite to be careful. Probably they still can't forget about how Red Diamond was abducted, a few decades before Goshenite was born. Goshe doesn’t really know, they never met them. Never met anyone that was abducted. The school is safe; it’s all they have ever known. The island is safe; Sensei is here. To them, patrol is just a routine, in case Sensei can't make it in time when the moon people attack. It is something to do and it makes Goshenite feel old and responsible. They can’t wait to start.

“We must protect your kind because your lives are precious,” Sensei said, “It is rare for a gem to be born. It is rare to be a lustrous.”

It is even rarer for two gems to be born on the same year, but that’s what Goshenite is. One of a kind, because they were born with a sibling, a best friend, someone unique with whom they can share everything, from days and days of lectures to the first morning of patrol.

Morganite is waiting for them in front of the school. Sensei and the other gems are here already, discussing battle plans. Goshenite’s cheeks turn a soft red as they scooch closer, trying not to be seen. They wonder how much time they have lost practicing swordsmanship by themselves.

“We’re assigned to the Hollow cape, with Turquoise and Green Topaz,” Morga says, waving their hand at them.

Fluorite turns their head in that exact moment and gestures for the two young gems to be silent.

“Took you long enough,” Morga whispers when the elder turns their attention back to Sensei.

“I was practicing,” Goshe replies, quite proud of their accomplishments, “I’ll show you.”

“Uh, uh.”

The sky above Goshenite’s head as they trot to their patrol spot is fresh and bright, a clear early-spring sky that makes their eyes hurt with white. It’s pristine and Goshe can paint it any color now that their real life has begun, now that they have a place to be.

It’s so beautiful, they think, closing their eyes when the white becomes too pure to bear. They would never believe how little it takes it all to crumble .  

The first arrow hits them in the arm they used to practice.

Goshe’s first thought goes to Morganite, to the fact they won’t be able to show them the swift, elegant swoosh the scabbard made when Goshe extracted their sword. Their second thought goes to Fluorite and Sensei and how they’ll lecture Goshe for hours after this.

Not even for a second does Goshe think that they will be abducted on their first day of patrol. No one Goshenite knows has ever been abducted; this island is safe.

The second arrow breaks Goshenite’s face in half. One of their eyes falls to the ground, they instinctively turn the remaining one towards Morga. Their sibling is paralyzed by fear just a couple of steps behind them, a hand around their sword, still. They don’t say a word.

Goshenite’s last thought is for them again. They should protect them. Morga shouldn’t have to see this, their partner shattering in a thousand shiny pieces in front of them, glittering white and silver in the white, pristine morning.

They raise their remaining arm toward Morga, “It’s okay,” they want to say, but a cascade of arrows cuts them off before the sound can escape their lips.

Goshenite crashes to the ground just when Morganite finally lets out a scream. It’s the last thing they hear.

----

It is rare for a gem to be born. It is rare to be a lustrous.

As Goshenite looks at the sky, drinking in blue and gold, they think that, as rare as it might be, it is all they have ever known and the same must be for their siblings. That must make it common, at least to some extent, maybe even normal. But they trust Sensei’s words.

There is one thing they cannot shake off from their mind, however, and it is a feeling of familiarity. As if the sky above their head and the world below their feet were old, known, no matter their young age. They come back to Goshe in flashes and sparks of memories, the refraction of light at a particular angle, when it bounces off Morganite’s hair.

It is rare for a lustrous to be born, but it is even rarer for two lustrous to be born in the same year. And Sensei smiled enigmatically at Goshe when he said it, holding a newborn pink gem in his arms and showing a few months old Goshenite their new sibling. Goshe was too young to understand at the time, but they can swear that the younger gem’s head jerked up when Sensei pronounced Goshe’s name. In the second their eyes met, something ancient, mysteriously sad, passed between the two gems.

It must be Goshenite’s imagination. They are still young and imaginative, as Chrysoberyl uses to say, but on days like these they can't shake off the image of Sensei’s smile from their mind. What would he say if Goshe talked to him about it? It makes Goshe feel too exposed, so they talk with Morganite, at night, when the other gems are playing cards and cursing Euclase’s luck.

Morganite brushes it off the first time, perhaps with too much energy. They scoff and recline their head backwards, with the same carelessness of Padparadscha but with none of their gentleness.

“That’s stupid,” they say, vulnerable and stubborn.

Goshenite hugs their knees to hide a smile. Morganite’s reaction is louder than every word Goshe could have hoped to get from them. They know their sibling well, but they won’t say it until Morga is ready to hear it.

It takes for Blue Zoisite and Topaz to be abducted, for Heliodor to be born, for Yellow to quietly start curling up into a ball of silence, but eventually Morga is.

One day, during a particularly late attack, arrows are flying over Goshenite’s head and they turn to look for Morganite. It is almost evening and the two gems are tired, autumn is rapidly fading into winter. Goshe’s reflexes fail them. They make a mistake. They trip. They see Morganite launching themselves at them before they see the arrow that was meant for Goshe. It shatters the pink gem’s torso in half. Morga falls onto them.

The impact shatters Goshenite as well and the two gems collapse on the ground in a cascade of shining fragments, then everything is black.

When Goshe opens their eyes again, they are at the infirmary. Rutile is polishing their scalpels next to the window. They have gotten better, Goshenite realizes, raising a hand toward their eyes. They can barely see the cracks.

“Morga is still unconscious,” Rutile mumbles without looking at them, “it’s a miracle you were saved. Please be more careful next time.”

“We’re sorry,” Goshenite replies.

Rutile smiles at them and then leaves the room, picking up on Goshenite’s unspoken request. It’s a matter of seconds before the echo of the doctor’s feet disappears down the hallway. Morganite chooses that precise moment to squint their eyes open.

“Did they leave?” they ask.

“Yes.”

“Oh, thank god. This place makes me sick.”

Goshenite chuckles, sitting on their bed.

“You shouldn’t have done that, it was dangerous.”

“Yeah,” Morga shrugs, looking anywhere but into Goshenite’s eyes.

“Why did you do it?” Goshe insists.

Morganite huffs, throwing their legs off the side of the bed and stretching their limbs, uncaring of the fresh glue between their junctures. For a long second they don’t say anything, and Goshe thinks they’ll drop the subject. Then Morga turns towards them, their face white in the subtle, familiar beam of the moonlight.

“You know why,” they say.

---

“We never got it right,” Goshenite sighs, crashing to the ground when the umpteenth arrow finally cuts their arm off, “I’m sorry.”

Morganite has been lying on the grass for a while already, their limbs scattered all over the green in glittering chunks that the lunarians are picking up greedily. It makes for such an ironic goodbye. Instead of a moment of grieving peace, the two gems are left with long, overcrowded minutes, with dozens of hungry lunarians pushing their presence between them. It makes Goshe feel like nothing more than a shiny object. Maybe this is all they ever were, after all.

“I’m sorry,” they apologize again, but Morganite grunts, flinching next to them.

“Stupid, what are you sorry for?”

“I-”

“We got it right this time,” they whisper, relief lining their voice, “I didn’t lose you.”

Goshe wonders if it is true. Is dying together all there is for the two of them? For every gem? Just as they mull over this, a group of lunarians comes forward. They pick up Goshe’s shattered legs with a smile on their face and put them in a basket already overflowing with pink and silver.

”We both lost,” Goshenite realizes, “They’re taking us away. It’s over.”

“Yeah,” Morga agrees, as if they were only now noticing, “Are you scared?”

“Yes.”

“Me too.”

“It’s okay, I’m here.”

“I’m here too.”

----

“Come on, get up.”

Phos’ voice sounds so cheerful compared to Cairngorm’s groans.

“Fine, fine,” they concede, sighing so loud that Goshenite doesn’t even have to strain themselves to hear, “but I’ve gotta change first, get out you creep.”

Eavesdropping on other people is not exactly polite, but little Goshe doesn’t care much about these things. It wasn’t their fault the two elders were being so loud at night, and talking about such interesting things, too.

Since Phos has come back, their trip is all little Goshe has been able to think about. Tagging along isn’t even a choice at this point and it only takes a few seconds for Goshenite to make it.

Going to the moon sounds like the adventure of a lifetime. Who knows what will be waiting for them over there? So far away from home, in a land that thousands of gems have seen but that only Phos has come back from. Huge lunarians, weird buildings, slimy creatures… Goshenite sprints to their own room to get changed with a bright grin on their face.

As they rush down the corridor to reach the hollow cape in time, however, their eyes fall by accident on the sleeping form of Morganite through the entrance of their own room. Goshe’s closest sibling.

Roughly the same age, raised with the knowledge of being a reborn pair of the same gems, Goshenite and Morganite have lived most of their short lives in the shadow of a past self they never met. Maybe this is why they grew so close. Morga’s insecurities, the way they can’t find themselves, Goshe’s attempts to lift their spirits, masking their own desire to find their own luck.

In that moment, with half of their mind already on the moon, Goshenite’s body is shook by a soft pang of guilt. The blame they feel is too deep and too pure to be rooted just in this moment and Goshenite has to stop and stay still for a second.

There is a voice in their head telling them that they can’t hurt Morga again, can’t leave until they get it right, and when Goshe closes their eyes to shake it off, white pristine skies is all they can see. Hisses, the sharp whistle of arrows, chunks of gems glittering in the sun.

It is rare for a gem to be born, is it rare to be a lustrous , it echoes, it’s even rarer for two gems to be born again.

Goshenite clenches their fist and shakes it off. They resume their run as if nothing has happened.

“What about Morga?” Phos asks them, later that evening, the lunarian ship taking shape behind their back.

“They should be fine,” Goshe shrugs, their eyes focused on the ship, on Cicada, on adventures to come.

If being born a lustrous is so rare, if being reborn is so rare, Goshenite’s life is much more precious than they can imagine. But Goshe doesn’t know what to do with this thought.

They are not wise, they only know how to have fun. Bottomless grief seems to be all there is awaiting for gems the older they grow, and Goshe is glad to be this young, glad they can still choose. They just want to have fun, shake wisdom and responsibility off their shoulders and be free.

Maybe this is what Morga wants too, Goshe thinks as the ship lifts off and the island disappears in the immense, dark blue that surrounds the earth. To be free, to be safe, to choose. This is why Goshe is leaving and this is why Morga is staying. If they are apart, they can be free, without an enemy, without pressure to be someone they never knew.

It is a weird sensation, this nostalgia, it tastes like spring.

Goshenite has never been good at emotions, they much prefer doing over thinking. However, that voice inside their mind is calming down, as if it were falling asleep. Safe, at ease. It is a weird sensation, but Goshenite feels like one piece of an enormous puzzle has finally found its place.

Axel Coss, black haired boy, with a white streak of hair going down the middle of his front hair. Strange really, not many kids a white streak of hair. But, moving on from that, he lived with his mom, Cece Coss, his dad, James Coss, and his two brothers, Ames and A.J. Triplets of course, they did everything together . Play, draw, clean, and otherwise. They all five lived in St. George, Utah, on a empty land, with their house and field. After the triplets were born tho, James and Cece decided to move to Kansas. But that didn't work out well. So, they moved to Mississippi. Where the triplets are now 15. School was pretty easy and all, everyone loved them. Well, the majority of people in their school. Axel was really the quiet and calm one, Ames, the short tempered, and A.J, the awkward type. So, they all kinda just stuck together like a pod. A couple more and now they are all 25 , well...two are at least. Ames and Axel- now , A.J ... when he turned to the age of 22, he got kidnapped and was tortured to death. LITERALLY. Nobody was able to find him. Until 2 months later, after he died he was found in a rusty old grey building. Almost looking like it was gonna collapse. His face torn, ripped...his arm and legs broken. It was just a nightmare, but thats only the start of it.

Ames got pretty emotional afterwards - Axel didn't say much after as well. He sometimes stayed in his room for hours , not eating, sleeping, nothing really, just thinking. 4 months passed and later on, Cece and James had been kidnapped by the same guys from when A.J was. And the parents died as well. The kidnappers had been caught and taken to jail. Ames soon left Axel, and if he was being honest to himself..he was glad Ames left. After everything that happened Ames started to drink and abuse Axel. Thats when his life became even more of a living hell. Work got harder, the bills were too much, and nothing could really make him happy at this point. Except for thing. Stitching. He would stitch blankets, stuffed animals, and when he got a bad cut- sometimes even himself. That was the only thing...for now. He was like cursed or something. Thats when he got to point- - -"Your fired." "What?" his voice shuddered as he clicked his pen a few times. "Your..FIRED!! You always mess up on the cars when we are on break- and you are too quiet- good for nothing piece of roadkill!" his boss, Keith, screeched as he took a fair raise of the hand and slapped him across his ear to mouth-that somehow cutting him. I mean, he was holding a wrench so- that probably why. Axel gently ran his finger down his face from his ear to mouth and felt the blood rushing out. "O-okay, under-s-stood..sir." the male exhaled taking th scarf he brought in with him because it was usually cold in the warehouse. Axel slid it on and ran home. At this point it was too much. He sat on the dining room chair rethinking his entire existence. "Do i even matter?...Of course i don't- not to my parents, not to my boss, ...not to my family.." out of the corner of his eye- he spotted a small, brown and white gun. "Thats it..." he said to himself, with a faint- but crazy smile. He walked to the gun, and made sure it was loaded. The black haired male pointed it to his heart and shot himself. Blood splattering on the wall and carpet. No screams, no cries, no pain. With the last bit of energy that he had, he shot himself in the head...

"Hey! Ax! Over here!" his brother A.J shouted waving from the field. He smiled softly and ran to the other versions of him. "whats up?" he asked kneeling down to his height. "Why do you always wear that scarf? It kinda looks like its from the eighteen hundreds." Ames spoke lifting a piece of the scarf up from Axel's neck. "Well, this girl at school gave it to me." He laughed softly rubbing the back of his neck. "Ooooooo!- Axel has a crush! Axel has a cru-" Ames interrupted what A.J said by pushing him backwards- "Oh shut up, its probably just a present." he sighed. "Whatever you say, maybe you should ask her out! Whats her name??" A.J declared getting up and picking some dandelions from the ground and putting them in his hair. "O-Oh uhh, her name is Jane-." Axel slightly blushed. Ames sighed laying down with his hands behind his head. "Yup, just as i expected- good old Jane Arkensaw.. she's kinda a brat if you ask me." "H-hey! Thats not true, she's actually really nice if you get to know her." A.J looked confused. "Isn't she the one who hasn't been coming to school for some time?" Ames glared at A.J- "Yes, yes she is." Axel replied taking the dandelions out of A.J's hair and putting them in a row at the top of his black silk hair, seeing he was struggling to put them in since they just get falling out. "i hope she's okay tho..."

HIs eyes shot open and then rubbed his head. "just another stupid nightmare..." he calls them nightmares because, well to him they are just painful memories. He put on his boots and looked at the calendar, "Huh....Macy Stars...well, this should be fun." He sighed and git his scalpel, stitching utensils, needles, thread, and his scarf. Ax put the scarf on and walked out with his drawstring bag.

(This is the bag btw)

He followed the directions where it told him to go. Now, he would normally go on his own free will and time, but it was like Slender decided when she dies. He shrugged it off and soon arrived. "This must be it huh?" Ax sighed ruffling his own hair a bit so his scar would show as much. He thought if you had scars it makes you weak, can't take care of your self. Anyways, he quietly entered through her back door,which was unlocked. "Who leaves their back door unlocked at a time like this?" The medium hight male said looking at the sunset and took in a deep breath then exhaled. That sorta calmed him down. Axel walked up the stairs and looked in the bathroom to see her doing her makeup. He had to admit she was beautiful, but still worthless to him. She was in fact a girl that went to his school. "There we go!" She smiled at herself in the mirror and did a duck face as if the mirror was taking a photo of her. She was really nice to him and all, but he didn't care, he didn't care about any of the victims of his. "They don't deserve this love...." he shuddered under his breath. Axel walked in holding a scalpel and his eyes now looking fully gold. The brown faded away, no mercy in his look. Macy spotted him in the mirror and screamed backing up her back hitting the sink. "How did you get in my house?!" She screamed and reached for a small mirror of hers and hid it behind her. "That's a pretty stupid question to ask...more concerned how I got in your house...then how your gonna survive this? Well, I can answer that for you. Your not." He walked to her and slashed the scalpel across her face- giving her a scar as well, "OWW- YOU LITTLE-" She screamed in pain holding one side of her face and taking the mirror and trying to hit him with it. Axel sighed seeing her on the ground, she had fell. He bent down, and grabbed her arms- putting them together. "W-wh-What are you doing....?!" She asked in a shaky tone. No response, he softly held them tightly tighter and took out his stitching utensils and started to weave her arms together. "Ow stop please!!" She begged trying to kick him- but he was almost done with the stitching process. Is she really that weak, stitches don't even hurt that bad, it's like poking yourself with a sharp en or pencil. Macy looked down at her sewn arms and her eyes as wide as the galaxy. "I really don't like loud noises you know... so, if you would have just been quiet I wouldn't had have to do this.." he softly whispered in her ear and sew her mouth together. No matter how hard she tried to scream- it was all just muffled noises. "There we go. Now, if you don't mind me, I will proceed to kill you." Her eyes were wider now. Tears formed in her eyes and just looked down. "Aww.. come on now-" he started to say, lifting up her chin and wiping the tears away. "I'm just putting you out of your misery- we only live in this world to die, it just is stressful for me to see people in pain like this." That was a lie of course. He didn't care if his victims were hurt, physically or mentally.

He cut open her stomach and found her heart. "There it is..." he took another piece of thread and needle then started to stitch a X into her heart. Soon, a golden piece of light came out of her heart and Axel held his arm out-the light transferred to his arm and he sighed in relief. "That felt good," he thought then looked down at Macy. "You know, life is as valuable as your love.." he smiled then ripped her heart out in one light pull. Her body falling to the floor . He smiled softly and set the heart near her makeup. He always set the heart of theirs next to something they loved. "Now that that's done," he sighed getting up and grabbing all his things and heading out.

His appearance strikes so many people, sometimes he would pretend to be a human to lure in victims. He is a handsome, kind, boy- so it's pretty easy. But he doesn't do it often, only when there's nobody really good to kill.

He still has his black hair with the white streak. And of course, he wear a big grey scarf around his neck with a small black X at the bottom of the end of the scarf. A beige, sorta brown jacket. Sometimes he would wear a black zipped up leather coat, but that's only when it's really cold outside. Black pants with a chain going form the top right corner of his belt, to the lower half of his left side. Sorta like his scar. Black boots with a stitched in X at the bottom corner of both boots. Some witnesses have said he is a tall, around 5'5 , male. Some people say he takes in emotions, that's not really it tho...

See, what he can do is- he only takes peoples lives, who get a lot of love, and give a lot of love, and not really sad people. He would climb through their windows at night , or when they are alone. But in some cases he just breaks in wherever he can. Axel is a ghost, spirit, otherwise. But he doesn't really like doing all of that appearing in thin air thing. Ever since people have reported sightings of him, he tries his bets you stay of out sight. Axel will use his stitches to sew a big X into their heart so he can acquire all the love that has been given to the person, or, the love that they have to share. If they attempt to scream or fight back, he will sew their mouths closed- or arms and legs together. The reason he takes the affection from his victims is because, his parents gave him none- and when he was alive, nobody gave him any either. After some time, the affection runs out, so he needs to restock it every 2-4 days. If one of his victims try to give him affection before they die, he will go to their height smile at them , and say...

"Im afraid ...your love means nothing to me.."

He also has another famous quote which is..

"Life is as valuable as your love."

If he were to go on a mission with a creepypasta - his most compatible people would be

-Puppeteer

-Jason The Tomaker

-Eyeless Jack

- Laughing Jack

- Jane The Killer

- Sally

- Zero

- and Judge Angels

Sally and the Family Tree

(Narrating in First Person as Sally)

My Brother is a Squirrel

I am not

My Father is a Squirrel

I am not

My mother is mostly Chipmunk, but not fully

Why I am fully chipmunk?

...Oh, that’s right.

I’m a groundhog.

I’d argue that I’m adopted.

Because my own family tree

...Only makes sense when it needs to

That's the Acorn Family in a nutshell

...My Father is Complex

He is a Mobius Complex in and of itself

Is he the bad guy or the good guy?

Who knows?

...He’s my dad.

That’s all I need to know.

All I ever needed to know.

...So why then

Am I still here?

Oh, right

Sonic

...How similar are Hedgehogs to Groundhogs by the way?

...Am I hedgehog?

Or Groundhog?

Who knows?

I love Sonic

I Love Nicole

...I even love Amy, but, even looking at her is complicated.

Its like I fell in love with Knuckles’ Smaller Lesbian sister.

...Then why does she love Sonic?

Guy or Girl?

...Like I’d know.

I keep changing the answer myself

...I try not to look at the marks

They remind me of things

Things I Might not fully be prepared to deal with yet.

...Am I?

Am I ready?

I’m here.

I ask the questions people don’t ask themselves.

That’s my angle.

I’m the question.

Sally or Sortie?

Sally or Sortie?

War or Truce?

War or Truce?

I know several guys.

Because I’ve

...I would say

Nope

The answer keeps getting yanked from me

Almost all the time

I am a chipmunk, I decide.

...My Dad reminds me of that show.

We used to watch that show together.

Best time 

...Wow

I was actually almost about to say my dad and I had a moment

...We’ve never had a moment

Never

Ever

Ever

So why

AM

I STILL

...I’m the tactician

Always the leader, but, never actually the leader

Ever

I get funny feelings when I look at Sonic

I would never tell you those feelings

...

WOULD THE REAL ANSWER MATTER?

WOULD IT?

IT WOULD MAKE ME LOOK STUPID

RIDICULOUS

UTTERLY HUMILIATED

MY DAD WOULD NEVER LOOK AT ME THE SAME WAY AGAIN

...I raise my right arm

He raises left

I guess we’re sort of in sync.

I want to be sync

I want to.

With both of them.

But I have to remind-

NOPE

MAX IS NO FATHER OF MINE

WAS NEVER MY FATHER

NIGEL WAS MY FATHER

MAX IS A LIVING JOKE

...

I never wanted Sonic dead

But our link keeps changing

I would never tell anyone what  he actually was to me

THAT WOULD JUST BE SILLY

...Go away

I tell him

I ignore Knuckles

...I tell him that all the time though

Never actually true

AND

I HATE

SONIC’S FUCKING

SHADOW

...Nope

Wrong answer

He hates

Me

Like this was ever going to go any other way

‘Sonic?’, I wonder

Who was that?

Oh, right, blue and red hedgehog, with green eyes.

...He always has red copycats though

Sometimes Mauve

BUT

WHEN I TALK TO BLAZE

‘...Sally, seriously stop it. You’re scaring me.’

‘OH, WAS I? I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST IGNORING ME.’

‘...Amy goes first. Then you.’

‘...For the record, I think he’s more interested in his games then telling me about you.’

‘...Oh.’

Blaze sighs. ‘Wow. I need to keep the fire of creation alive.’ She stares at ALL THE ANGLES

APPARENTLY THE ANGLES WON’T STARE AT THEMSELVES

...Or was that an Anagram?

NOPE

...But, yes.

‘...’ Blaze murmurs an ‘N’ name, to some random third party

Nothing’s random about it.

‘...Scourge is a nutshell of his own.’, Sally murmurs. The nut jokes were back.

THEY WERE KIND OF FUNNY

IN THAT

ONLY A FEW MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY ACTUALLY SEEMED TO GET THEM

NO ONE GOT THE JOKE THAT WAS HER LIFE

She wanted to shove her younger/older brother down the hall.

...Where was she?

Where was she really?

Hell?

Was Mobius Hell?

...’Nope’

‘It’s Hades’, she reminds herself

‘Gonna stay out of the Hell trap entirely.’

‘...You know how Sonic keeps staring at your name funny?’

‘Like how he stares at a certain cop.’

...A strange outside party stands.

Just stands.

‘Where are the zones?’, certain parties murmur.

Both members have ‘Z’ in their names by the way.

‘...I just remember the hard times now.’, Sally murmurs.

‘...We’ve had some good times.’

‘But you keep making it harder to remember.’

‘THE ALPHABET ONLY HAS 25 LETTERS NOW.’

‘...Fine. 25.5. ‘Z’ is basically just an inversion of ‘S’.’

‘...What is a ‘sone’ by the way?’, Sally murmurs.

‘THAT IS THE OLDEST WORK JOKE IN HISTORY’

‘...Because he keeps finding himself in a PlayStation?’, Sally murmurs. ‘Even though he likes ninten-’

‘He likes NINTENDO’S STYLE’

‘...He has a way with Sega Stuff. His consoles keep breaking.’

‘...But, not Scourge’s. Scourge knows something I don’t.’

‘SONIC’

‘...Mario/Scourge.’

‘That was a freaky commercial, I admit,’ Sally murmurs

‘OH, WAIT’

‘BACK TO THE TREE’

‘...We don’t have lines in our tree here on Mobius.’

‘WE HAVE ‘8′s in between all our family members.’

‘...Bad joke.’

‘The actual lines are complicated.’

‘...What is the difference, by the way? 8. ...oo. Sadly, 0. ...But, there was no line through it. ////////////////////////////// THERE WE GO’

‘FEELS LIKE WE ONLY FILLED IN AS MANY LINES AS WE HAVE FRIENDS’

‘...Friends are family’, I remind myself.

‘...Then I wake up.’

‘THEY LITERALLY ARE OUR FAMILY’, I remind myself.

‘ONLY INSTEAD OF THE WOODS’

‘ANTOINE’

‘KEEPS LEADING SONIC’

‘THROUGH THE SAVANNAH’

‘OR WAS IT THE DESERT?’

‘I CAN’T REMEMBER ANYMORE’

‘...I do want to read those books sometime.’

‘Sonic likes dogs, but also cats, but seemingly never at the same time.’

‘See what I did there?’

‘HE LIKES BOTH OF THEM’

‘BUT IT HURTS TO ADMIT IT’

...So I remind myself.

To bring both Blaze and Buddy into the room

‘WOW’, I exclaim

‘SURE IS FORCES IN HERE, GUYS/GALS’

‘I BET INFINITE IS ACTUALLY BOTH OF YOU, BUT ALSO SILVER’

‘...He’s the reached the top’

‘But had to stop’

‘...And, that's weirdly bothering him.’

‘...Mammoth Monk?’

‘Whose that?’, I ask

‘I only know the Mogul guy?’

‘HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU AND INFINITE FUCKED?’

‘...’ Sonic get strangely silent and loud at the same time at that.

‘...Finn’s weird.’, Sonic admits. ‘Almost as weird as me.’

‘Yup. Sure is number one fanboy in here.’, I admit.

...Infinite looks at the sides.

‘Sorry, Princess, not yet. ...But, you are my princess.’

‘WOW’

‘I Didn't KNOW SQUIRRELS AND JACKALS WERE RELATED’

‘...They are.’, Infinite admits.

‘...I have an odd relationship with those guys. I think I was Gunner in a blast life.’

‘BECAUSE EVERYTHING YOU MAKE GOES BOOM?’, I ask

‘...Not entirely. You’re still here.’

‘AUGMENTED REALITY IS AM IRAC-’

‘...I stare at the funny pink guy/girl’

‘Still not sure’

All four previous lines were said by my jackal cousin.

‘...Afri- ...Makes strange dogs.’, he tells me.

‘Ah, you mean the new ones’, I tell him.

Its our inside joke.

...Not that inside though.

‘I DON’T KNOW HOW HE’

‘...Dad? ...No wait, that’s Mom.’

‘I KEEP FORGETTING WHAT MY MOM-’

‘...Did I imagine having a mom?’

‘NOPE’

All five prior lines by him.

‘...I keep-’

‘I KNOW SHE’S A FROG’

‘YOU-’

‘...Stop looking at my triangles.’

‘ONE DAY’,

All five prior lines, by him, most-ish

‘...Sally? How much has my mask been going around?’

‘...’ I hesitate to tell him.

‘Once.’

‘...You don’t want to know.’

‘...We’re getting off topic.’

‘Explain the prehistoric us.’

I say.

‘......I have a weirdly complicated past.’

‘I’M SET?’

‘NOPE’

‘NEED TO GRAB MY BACKPACK’

‘GOING HIKING’

He says

‘...One day’, I tell him

‘So, Elias wore it how ma-’, I say

‘YOU DON- I DON- YOUR BROTHER IS WEIRDLY OKAY with wearing my mask.’, he tells me

‘BAD ELIAS’, I SAY

‘...Why does this keep reminding me-’ I say

‘DR. QUACK’

‘DR.’

‘...Doctor’, he reminds me

‘SO’, I begin

‘NOPE’, he tells me

‘...Which one? Four or Eight? I always get them mixed up? ...Or is that twelve?’, he asks

‘...High British, Mid-High British, ...Somewhere between England, Scotland, Rome. ...Possibly Ireland’, ...We stare

‘WOW’, I say.

‘ARE WE ACTUALLY IN SYNC NOW?’, I ask

‘...Correction. ‘we’,’ he reminds us.

‘PERFECT’

‘WHEN DID SONIC ACT’

‘...Canary glass’

‘So that time’

‘...He oddly knew what was happening.’

‘He hope he hasn’t left himself for good’

‘He keeps forgetting himself’

WOW

...Is this technically TWO PERS- YES

IT’S TWO PERSON FIRST PERSON

I Don’t Even Know What Is Happening Anymore

...’That’s Sonic’, I say

‘Wait, wrong sonic’

‘...HOW MANY TIMES’

‘SINCE THAT- ...So many’

‘BUT, HE WAS MOST HUMAN WHEN SONIC WAS GO-’

‘Most Mobian’, I correct him

‘...Whatever’

‘You can call an Anthro a Mobian.’

‘But you can’t make it stick’

‘...Ah.’

‘That’s why I like Acorns’, I murmur.

‘...What’s happening?’, he murmurs

‘STOP THAT’, WE SCREAM

‘YOU’RE KILL-’

‘...Controlling.’, he corrects.

‘Eggman Tech works on Robotnik Stringy Theory.’, he reminds me.

‘...When is this game of cat and mouse going to end?’, I ask

‘THEY CAN’T-’

‘...They’re holding their breath’, I remind myself

‘FOR THE CURRY’, HE SCREAMS

‘...Does it remind them of catnip?’, I joke

‘No=yes=I don’t know=maybe=whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa’

REALITY IS BREAKING DOWN WE REALIZE

‘More like taking stage left’, he corrects me

‘EGGMAN OR ROBOTNIK’

‘STAGE RIGHT’

‘STAGE LEFT’

‘CENTER STAGE’

‘...Egg=Mind=Power’

‘...Robot=Dumb=Asshole=Strength’

‘...JULIAN QUAGMIRE’ WE SCREAM AT THE SAME FUCKING PERSON

‘...I would personally call him IVO QUACK’

‘YOU TOO? ...No wait. JULIAN QUACK’

‘WHO QUACKED FIRST BACKED FIRST’

‘...Julian’, we scream silently.

‘TURN YOUR INFERNAL ROBOT RUIN TRAIN OFF’, WE SCREAMS LIKE STUPID FUCKING BIT-

‘YOU CALL ME’

‘HELP’

‘...Mordred sucks’

‘WOW’

‘MORGA-’

‘...Cat. Mouse. Box. Fairy.’

‘A FAIRY INSTEAD OF A MOUSE? WOW’

‘AT LEAST’

‘OH, WAIT YOU DID THAT TOO’

‘LAVALAMPAS STUPIDSADASDAASDSDA’

‘YOU’RE RIGHT, THEY’RE ALL STUPID,’ SALFINITE MURMURS

‘WE’RE GOING OFF THE TRAILS’, I SC- RETH

‘One of those days’, we murmurs.

‘...We’ll get them.’, he says.

‘SCHRODINGER CATS ALLWAYS LANDS ON THEIR HEADS’

‘,..Feet=Heads?’

‘What a strange hydrya’

‘SO THATS WHY ROBOTNIK SUCKS AT TAPDANCING’

‘...NOT THE BOX’, WE SCREAM

‘ONE DAY’

‘NOT NOW’

...The Eggman Broke

‘Julian Sucks, doesn’t he?’

‘YOU HAVE NO IDEA’, Ivo calmly explains to them. ...By screaming politely.

‘Bitch’

‘...We are, aren’t we?’, Ivo tells us.

‘Shoot us in the head’, Ivo tells us

‘...’ We shoot at their conjoined head.

‘...Bad Idea’, Ivo admits. ‘I was this guy-’

‘...Fuck it, I WAS NEVER AS BAD AS THIS GUY’

‘DID YOU REALLY THINK THAT?’

‘DID YOU’

‘...’

I unfuse from Infinite-Ultimate.

‘..Pyramid scalpel?’, ...Bitch

‘BITCH, YES’

...Am I  the real bad girl here?

‘...NOPE’, I realize.

‘...Unless you’re talking to Julian.’

‘... Never talk to Julian again’, he tells me.

‘PERFECT’

‘...Don’t we all’

‘NOPE’, I CORRECT HIM

…...I am the bad girl.

Whther

NOPE

I DON’T

‘I COULD’VE BEEN A REAL PRINCESS’, Someone murmurs.

‘...Let it fray, I tell them’.

‘...Sally, please just-’

‘I DON’T WANT TO LOSE YOU AGAIN’

...We all stare at each other.

‘WHO SAID THAT?’

Amy sighs.

‘Julian was born on a farm’, we tell ourselves.

‘Ivo was born in the city’.

‘...The roaring city’, Amy tells IVO, NOT JULIADAEASEAEWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

‘,...They say Tigger is the most cunning of the beasts.’

‘They didn’t say he was the most braindead too.’

‘Julian’s Tigger, Ivo’s Whinny’

‘...We needs help.’

‘FUCK YOUR POLITENESS JULIAN’

‘SCREAM’

‘NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU’

‘NOT EVEN THE NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU’

‘In our heads, you’re the devil’

‘Never let us get our thoughts together.’

‘Never let us create’

‘GO CREATE ROME AGAIN’

‘THIRD TIME IS A BITCH’

‘...I like the z names’, Ivo tells us.

‘BUT, HE, THEY’

‘ITS PART OF THE LORE JULIAN’, Ivo says like a most polite man

‘RASPUTIN IS AWAKE’, Ivo SCREAMS

‘WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO TELL FATHER?’, Ivo asks.

‘...’ He didn’t know

Julian didn’t know

FIRST TIME FOR EVERYTHING

‘...I’m my own family tree’, Salyl realisays sadly.

‘Everyone’s left’...Julian says

‘...Julian farts and poops on the same desk’, Ivo said silently.

‘...Can’t believe he let himself het this way.’, Ivo says...More like Carpenter Ivo

‘JULIAN IS THE WORST’, WE ALL SCREAM
