My Personal Highlights for the latest chapter.
Heavy Spoilers for book 7 under the cut obviously!
Floyd's ADHD ass floating around because he lives for the struggle™. (Relatable)
Floyd's entire waking up sequence:
Floyd flying through the air upside down, on fire, and collared so fast that you could miss it if you didnt pause on the exact frame.
Riddle quite literally vibrating with anger and requiring TWO (2) whole professors to hold him back when he is a solid 5'2".
Floyd spending the rest of the flashback upside down and you only see his shoes sticking up.
Jade dancing around and cackling at Floyd while he's upside down.
Azul pretending not to see it because he's been dealing with them for years.
The fact that Night Raven College definitely has never had a normal orientation.
Riddle being the thing that triggers Floyd's brain to wake up. It is a character theme for them atp.
Bioluminescence. :) I just think they're neat.
Jade having positively 0 respect for anyone ever and actually being full of himself. (This is the funniest possible outcome for his characterization, no one @ me. As I said in my earlier post, Jade is if Charli XCX wrote Von Dutch about an eel.)
Jade's dream existence is still one where people rely on him - in fact even moreso than reality and he's the center of attention.
Jade being the weakest link of the twins when it comes to imagination.
Jade being the twin that their parents struggled with more because he knows how to act polite but he's actually just a snobby brat.
Jade's internal image of Floyd being essentially doodle bob and his internal image of Azul being a doe-eyed shoujo love interest. 💀 He is so unserious.
THEY HISS AT EACH OTHER LIKE CATS WHAT
Throwing hands is becoming a theme
O c t o p u s
He's actually adorable what the fuck. I will take seven, please.
Azul's ideal world is that he can do a sport™ and be a cool sports guy™. He knows all the songs in High School Musical I am convinced.
Azul's alternate ideal world where he's an arsonist.
Floyd's solution is "Azul is boring like this, let's punch him."
Jade and Floyd's trying to save Azul from slipping deeper but when they can't their response is essentially "good luck don't die" with the cadence of ending a phone call and a high five.
Floyd got his ass kicked by Jade and them bickering like siblings once Azul is safe.
Bonus:
He has breached containment someone come get him

Yes, I would be very interested hearing your head canon (@tim-ribbert-56) (in response to this post)
I have decided for my personal entertainment that Clarisse de Cagliostro is related to Lupin III, and here's why.
-pulls out Arsène Lupin's Wikipedia page-
In the novel La Comtesse de Cagliostro, a young Arsène Lupin (at the time going by the name Raoul d'Andrésy) was courting Clarisse d'Etigues, a young lady of a well-to-do family, and trying to win her hand, despite her father's disapproval.
Throughout the course of the novel, Lupin meets and falls in love with Joséphine Balsamo, aka the Countess of Cagliostro, and abandons Clarisse in favour of her. To clarify, Joséphine is not actually countess of anything, she is (or claims to be) a descendant of Giuseppe Balsamo aka the Count of Cagliostro (who was also count of jack shit), a famous conman from the 18th century.
Shenanigans ensue, which I will not go into in details on, but oh my god I am insane about Raoul and Joséphine, I want to dissect them and study them under a microscope. It turns out Joséphine aka Cagliostro is evil as fuck, Raoul/Lupin realizes that and goes back to Clarisse (whom he had previously abandoned like an old sock, I fucking hate this guy), marries her, and a few years later has her kid.
Unfortunately Clarisse dies in childbirth, and Joséphine, who was still around and very very pissed at Lupin (and jealous as hell of Clarisse whom, may I mention, had never personally antagonized her in any way whatsoever, Joséphine is just fucking bonkers). Joséphine also kidnaps Lupin and Clarisse's son, Jean, and raises him as her own son. (I have not yet read the following novel The revenge of Cagliostro so I don't really know what Jean's deal is, I just know he's an antagonist).
The following is my headcanon, based on these events. In the universe of Lupin III, Joséphine Balsamo was actually countess of the small kingdom of Cagliostro (maybe Giuseppe was count, maybe he conned his way into becoming count, maybe he bought the land and built a fake kingdom with a fake history, who knows).
After the events of The revenge of Cagliostro, Jean settles down in the country of Cagliostro, gets married, has a child, and that child will later have a daughter of their own, who they name Clarisse, after their late grandmother. Clarisse de Cagliostro, of Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro fame, would thus be the great-grand-daughter of Arsène Lupin, making her Lupin III's cousin/niece/whatever you call this specific degree of separation.
I am choosing to make Clarisse de Cagliostro a great-granddaughter of Arsène Lupin, rather than a granddaughter, because Arsène Lupin was very young when the events I described unfolded: he is 20 years old when he meets Clarisse d'Etigues and the whole Cagliostro debacle happens, and 25 by the time Jean is born. I'm assuming he had Lupin II much later in his life. So Jean and Lupin II (half-brothers) would have a significant difference in age, and so Jean's hypothetical child (grandchild of Arsène Lupin, so of the same generation of Lupin III) would be much older than Lupin III. Clarisse de Cagliostro is younger than him, maybe around the same age if you stretch it, so she's have to be a great-grandchild.
Now I need to read The revenge of Cagliostro and study Arsène Lupin's wikipedia page in more detail to determine when exactly Lupin II was born and who his mother was. And also where Albert's family branched out, because the fact that he's called D'Andrésy should theoretically place him as a descendant of Arsène Lupin's mother but not of Arsène Lupin himself; but Jean was also going by that last name, so who fucking knows.
No I am not insane I promise, I am just a gigantic nerd.

Steggy Week Day 7 17: Free day
Based on @indiefic ‘s Mending the Empty Bones
I got intense nostalgia for this beautiful story.
I know I’m super late to the last day for steggy week but I knew I had to do this idea justice.
Special thanks to @pixel-concept for getting me a really nice walking reference for Steve
