Victor Frankenstein (2015), my new favorite movie the camp I've always wanted. Nothing has hit the craving for absolute CAMP like this movie. Every scene packs a punch, including the one with the meat monkey and then the one where James McAvoy sucking cyst goo into his mouth.

argknsg do you have any story or ideas for hob and dream while dream was in the freakshow before hob helped him escape?? i would love to see the building of trust, evading circus security, and healing the mental wounds dream must have from his captivity. Obvs i luv the AU!
your art is awesome!
excellent question! I'm attempting to post my stuff in somewhat chronological order. But I do have some thoughts abt Hob and Dream while in the circus :)
These thoughts are subject to change
I suspect Burgess' circus treated dream similar to how real life circuses and freak shows would treat their non-human attractions. (Badly)
I also suspect Burgess was in need of new hires since something kept kicking all the stable employees out of commission. That something is Dream.
Hob was likely a new hire. He gets one look at Dream during a performance and 😳😳😳 (insert Ev's art here hehe)
It does NOT take Hob long to go completely rogue for this horse. He sees Dream's mistreatment and decides "I can find a new job... I'm going scorched earth"
There’s plenty of ways for Hob to create a convenient distraction. He could pop the locks on the animal cages, or tip over an ashtray and “accidentally” start a fire. A particular attraction called The Corinthian croons at Hob through the bars of his cage. Promising he could easily cause mayhem if only Hob would let him out :3. He's got a score to settle with Burgess too...
As the pandemonium commences, Hob steals a bag of cash and other trinkets from Burgess' safe and BOOKS it.
This means, from Dream's perspective, all hell simply breaks loose during a performance. Dream stands frozen/or panics as everything literally begins falling down around him. Then a human he's only seen in passing grabs him, yells for him to MOVE! RUN! ( if Dream even notices at all) No time to react. The tent is actively coming down. Dream must bolt or get crushed/killed. Idk maybe Manticori took out a load bearing pole lol
I wonder whether Dream even knew Hobs NAME at the circus.
I also suspect Burgess is out looking for them, Hob robbed him and stole his star attraction * shrugs*

wicked games (l.m.) - chapter six
previous chapter series masterlist next chapter
pairing: lee minho x reader genre: academic rivals to lovers wc: 2.6k words
color me green
everyone ought to know not to mess with the extreme hormonal imbalance that gets tangled up in the form of teenagers.
because classes started in march, the education system pulled out one of the most important events that students would most like to experience during the school year, valentine's day. what happens is that, in haneul high school, the students could not accept such slander. in the 90s, the celebration of kiss day was created; it consisted of a day that was common to see heart-shapped confetti across the floor in the halls, people crying over being rejected and others with teddy bears and bouquets of red roses under their arms, bragging about the amount of confessions they received.
to say that day made y/n want to gouge her eyes out with her bare hands would be an understatement.
everything about the celebration made her feel odd. she could not shake feeling like an alien observer watching the girls her age and all their unspoken yearning, how they fell apart over loud displays of affection and exaggerated gifts. what's with the allure of romance anyway? she couldn't quite grasp it within her fingers, and for some reason, it stressed her out.
shaking her head as a way of physically trying to shift her focus to another corner of her mind, she quickly settles into thinking about hyunjin and theorizing how much her assistance had actually helped him on his math test.
she hadn't heard from the boy the last few days, ever since the test. she figured he must have blacked out after studying as intensely as he had for the first time in his life. or he probably failed, and that wouldn't be kind to her ego.
when she first stepped into school in the chilly morning, she noticed that the confetti hadn't been thrown all over the place yet, so she still had the margin to pretend that day was a normal day.
what caught her eye, however, was the employees hanging up a gigantic sheet of paper on the wall. a cluster of people started forming in a circle, curious eyes examining the words printed in oppressive black ink, some were on tiptoes trying to catch a glimpse among the sea of heads.
y/n hurried into the middle of the crowd. even though physical contact with so many people made her skin sting, she slipped into the tangle until she came to a stop in front of everyone to see all the rankings on display.
once she found her name in the first column of the chart signaling her perfect score, a wave of relief and satisfaction emanated through her entire body.
regardless of how focused she was on her own accomplishment, her eyes were captured like a magnet to the name right below hers, and, to bring even more joy to her day, with a not-so-perfect score...
while she made 100 points, lee minho's name got stained by a hideous 98.
after the hellish week the boy had put her through like he had decided out of the blue to tease her countless times more than he already did on a day-to-day basis, y/n allowed herself to rejoice at the feeling of pride she felt because of the score.
caught out of her blissful trance, she realized classes were about to start, if the halls beginning to overflow were any indication to follow. her steps were determined while she made her way to english class with certainty that nothing would strain her mood.
when her eyes found minho sitting at the back of the classroom with his pet friend on his side as usual, she didn't refrain from her calculated stride until she came to a stop in front of the boy. minho, seeing her approaching, already masked his lips with the classic sarcastic smile he always performed flawlessly whenever he saw her, taking advantage of any prospect to get her worked up.
"what do i owe you the pleasu-" he started, but quickly realized she wasn't having any of it at that moment.
"shut up, now it's my turn" she interrupted, crossing her arms and lifting her chin, superioring herself through her ever-so-fierce body language. "you got 2 math questions wrong on the test? what's going on with you? i hate to say it but you were better than this back in the day..." a smirk that held no trace of kindness bloomed on her face as a silent challenge to his own, that started to die down by the second, cheeks falling.
he just frowned as if he had come upon something that had a bad smell, disgust being physically transferred from her to him, tables turning.
"you know it's not like me to put the blame on other things when it comes to my performance, but taking this test in the same classroom as you really affected me. i almost had to go outside to throw up 3 times just because i couldn't shake off your presence inhabiting the same space as me."
"oooh, taking it to heart now, are we minho?" a humorous little laugh escaped her lips as she lightly tapped her fingers on her arms.
"this is much worse than when you're tearing your hair out just by listening to me" he rolls his eyes and turns his body completely towards the blond boy who was aggressively drinking from his juice box, not daring to spare a glance to the frightening girl in front of him. "she's so annoying, seriously..."
"so you can play the game but i can't?" the question sounded dumbfounded and she felt anger starting to bubble on her chest.
"uhm, duh-uh" he replied as if it was obvious. "i prefer it much more when you are locked up in your own brooding"
"i don't get locked up in brooding" her tone got higher at his ridiculous accusation. "i'm sorry to spoil your childish ways of entertainment but my pride won't allow you to remain unchecked"
"talk about your pride" he scoffed with all his might, disdain evident in his voice. "don't go putting all your judgment over me on a single test, especially the first one. i don't want to see you crying later when i start to take this seriously."
"what ever made you think that i'm afraid of you taking things seriously? if you are trying to humiliate me by attempting to put me at your level, i can tell you is not working" her hands slipped from her previously crossed manner, and descended to settle on top of his desk, leaning in as a way to provoke him. "your immaturity has no bounds whatsoever."
minho looked into her eyes in silence for a chain of seconds until he groaned in desperation, eyes rolling back and an irritated sigh escaping his lungs.
"ugh, today is going to be a good day for me filled with chocolates and love letters, so stop trying to spoil it with all your nagging on my ears" he said, eager for the conversation to end soon.
minho hated it when she was like this, and getting 2 questions wrong on a 40-question test was disgraceful enough.
sometimes he found himself believing that both of them were one and the same while being two completely distinct planets all at once. he could tell that her talent for consistent pestering was just like his, but he couldn't help but prefer when she was the one hot-faced and struggling to hold her unceasing rage from lashing at him in a deadly streak.
and he really was looking forward to all of the confessions he was going to receive throughout the day, that hadn't been a lie. the compliments that were thrown in his direction by lovesick girls always amused him and tickled his undying ego.
"you never fail to make me sick to my stomach" she says with a deep frown, knuckles turning white at how hard they were being pressed against his desk.
"speak to my hand" minho raised his hand towards her, mocking her with movements imitating someone talking. "ah, i'm park y/n and my favorite pastimes are terrorizing innocent classmates and institutionalizing extreme boredom" he spoke in a demon-like voice as if trying to imitate her, and she only managed to scoff at his antics.
it took all her strength to walk over to her usual spot at the table at the front without caressing his pretty face with an uppercut.
he was outrageously unbearable, lee minho was the worst of the world.
"you fell asleep in the middle of the math test. you wouldn't do that if you had doubts about any of the questions" yongbok started right after she left them be, looking at him from the corner of his eye, pinning him in an accusatory stare.
"the last few days have been weird for me, yongie, give it a rest" minho dismisses his friend while sulking and crossing his arms, face falling slowly until his forehead reached his desk.
"if you say so..."
“why, are you insinuating something?” it didn’t take many seconds for him to get defensive as he always did over topics like this. topics that were about her.
minho liked to perceive himself as a person who was fully aware and in control of why he did the things he did, and having someone who knew him as well as yongbok insinuating things bothered him beyond measure, making him doubt his own conscience.
“oh, no, never” he answered sarcastically and kept chugging the straw coming out of the orange juice box.
“ugh, whatever” minho says finally, shrugging and pretending he didn't care. "you've been weird as hell these past few days too..."
the class went by smoothly and y/n believed that her good mood would be unshakable for the rest of the day. it all ended in shambles when the bell rang and people started to leave the room to go to their respective next classes.
it all ended in shambles because it was at that exact moment that hwang hyunjin burst through the door like a cannon, wide eyes scanning the complexity of the classroom in search of the girl.
"y/n! i've been looking for you everywhere!" hyunjin's voice calling out for her in such an open place and in the midst of so many of their classmates put y/n on alert instantly.
she didn't even think about looking to the back of the class to check if he was still there.
"um, what do you need?" asking carefully collected, she looked barely managed to scan around her to see if there were still a lot of people in the room who hadn't left yet.
"you are never going to believe it!" he was anything but quiet, still daring to bounce up to her in his unmatched good humor. "i got 30 out of 40 questions right on the test! can you believe it? can you?" he exclaimed, and she realized she hadn't looked up the boy's name when she'd seen the rankings earlier.
regardless of the non-existent relationship she had with hyunjin, the information left her very much satisfied. knowing that she had the ability to teach well meant that she could land some tutoring gigs down the road.
"that's nice, hyunjin" she responded with a small sign of contentment on her face.
while she started bending down to pick up her bag from the floor and going on her way, he stopped her by handing her a white bag.
"this is a thank you present for you. as soon as i entered the school and saw the rankings, i skipped the first class and ran to the bakery near the school to buy this. it's a cupcake, no big deal!"
but y/n's focus had been ripped from the words that came out of the mouth of the boy in front of her and thrown to the small whispers she heard behind her back as soon as he waved the gift in front of her face.
"oh my god..." a girl said.
"so the rumors were true? they're going out with each other?" another trailed.
y/n gritted her teeth and exasperation started building up inside her chest.
"hyunjin" she called him, firmly yet quiet as ever. "have you gone insane?"
"what? why?" the big smile that previously covered his face was replaced by an expression of pure confusion. "you don't like cupcakes? i'm sorr-"
"today is kiss day, you dumbass" she explained, holding the bag he had given her with only one finger as if she touched it more than necessary, she would be consumed by it on the spot.
"oh" was his first reaction, realizing that he had completely forgotten about the day. however, when he finally came to realize how what he just did could create such horrific misinterpretations, his eyes widened and he let out another "oh!", this time sharing y/n's panic.
after his comprehension of how grave the situation was, hyunjin's first instinct was to snatch the bag from her hand without hesitation or grace. "it's nothing like that!" he exclaimed loudly almost as if he was screaming at her, noticing that there was a considerable amount of people still in the room who were eyeing them curiously.
"tutoring session this friday again!" was the only thing he accomplished to say before running out the door with the same agitation he had entered it.
all's well that end's well.
"i hate cupcakes anyway..." she whispered at last, leaving the room without looking any of the people who saw the scene in the eye.
as if ignoring that everything that had happened would immediately be forgotten and left behind by everyone. she knew she was fucked.
"we're going to be late for the next class, minho" yongbok called over to the boy who was still sitting fixedly in the chair, eyes narrowed at what he had just witnessed.
with his best friend's call, he put the bag on his shoulder and started walking next to the blonde in wary strides.
"who was that poor guy?" he asked, a lump in his throat that felt like something else was trying to escape from his lips, but he couldn't put it in words.
"that's the hwang hyunjin you asked me about these days" yongbok clarified, not missing the bewildered tone coming from his friend.
"oh. i really had no idea who he was until two minutes ago."
after a few seconds of walking in eerie silence, a squeaky voice shouted "minho!" at their back, and echoed down the hall.
when they both stopped at their steps and turned around, they saw a small girl with long dark hair and red cheeks running towards them with a giant box of chocolates.
"this is for you!" she held the box out to him, starting to smooth her hair in a not-so-discreet way from the second he took it from her hands. "my name is bae minah, let's hang out sometime."
minho smirked mechanically but the genuineness was nowhere to be found. he still leaned into her slightly as if to take a better look at her, flattering the younger girl in the process as her eyes started to blink rapidly at the sight of him growing closer.
"yeah, sure, i'll think about it. bae minah..." he said and she opened a big - and pitiful - smile.
and so they both went continued their way, leaving her behind.
"take this" minho held out the box to yongbok, who looked at him confusedly and adjusted his glasses that fell down his nose.
"don't you want it? it's a super expensive brand."
"nah" he said, looking away. "i'm actually feeling a little nauseous."
stay tuned for chapter 7! ☆

Know about yourself - Interestingly
Know about yourself
Very important thing in every one life is knowing about our own.
We have to prepare our self to face the competitive world, we may get lot of opportunities to do we choose something because of some reason like may salary offered high, location is most liking, or we may have our friends as colleagues etc., you may feel after some years that I choose a wrong opportunity. This some times happens because of the opinion was not taken by us may be by someone told you to choose, we understand their intention and choose one which they suggested. If we don't know about our self deeply, We may not 100% correct in taking decisions. We use to hear you don't know about your self I know much about you, this may be right we may get confused in selecting our personal things.
We need to look into our self what strength's we have, what abilities we have, what are our weakness, where we get confuse in choosing right decision, and what is our financial status. We get a lot of care from our family members since our childhood, our needs well known to our parents and they arrange before we ask some times. We have to respect them in the same way by giving them a pleasure in their hearts that we achieved some thing, no matter how much you earn they feel happy and they proudly say to others what we are doing, in our parents point of view we have to settle with good position.
All we are equally provided with opportunities and challenges, we face some critical problems to solve we that may feel afraid but finally we prove that we can do that. Not to worry on problems we get situations we face, enjoy each movement of life. We some time worried for known things too they may be very simple even, finally we face them and prove our self that we did our best. Nothing is designed to some one, they are in that position or in that chain because they choose it. We may some time feel some kind of tasks we cannot do, but to know when we take that then only we can understand whether we can or not, before doing never estimate your self that you cannot do that.
Know your self keep some time on this, no one abilities are strong or poor, all our intention is same on doing some thing that is to solve the issue finish the problem by providing possible solution.
We may have many ideas in our mind to do, but all we may not be able do because of some limitations.
While learning we must feel we alone learning, but while doing we must feel we doing in front of experts. So that we try our best, every thing that we do should become a reference it may be a simple task even, so that we get self satisfaction.
Remember no awards or rewards full fill your desires, but if someone say that they are following your resolutions for solving their problems gives you best pleasure, so keep efforts for knowing about your self, provide best resolution in solving the problems be brave enough.
The opportunity we chosen may be not interesting or not much liking to us, until you are there in that position you must show your abilities and should provide best solutions for each problem. Along side you try for your interested position, never show or say that what you are doing is not so interesting to you, this may impact others as well. As an example a graduate who is topper in class sure get lot of opportunities and get many offers, based on his/her performance only but not because of score he achieved. If a average student proved with same level both of them were hired for the same position. So never underestimate your self by looking others abilities, some may solve issue within 1day some may take 2 days but ultimate is how best efforts you are showing to solve the issue. Nothing best suits to any, after choosing and doing with abilities everything will suits to everyone. No opportunity is created for someone. Never try to look into others life and don't compare with yours, everyone have their own problems and happiness, no body full fill others desires. So be happy with what you are having, spread your support who need, never say goodbye to anyone.
Add pleasure to your life, knowing about your self is most important thing and very much needed. If you are thinking about your self it is not selfishness, understand your self thoroughly keep your brain working, never compare your things with others, do not hesitate to work hard, nothing wrong if you do a lot of work. Finally never do anything for getting appreciated, in front of self satisfaction nothing worth.
We feel we weren't recognised, may be true even we do hard work showing best in completing things we may not recognised properly, remember and recollect the things if some one got recognised and you be part of that thing, then feel you also achieved that along with them, feel internally strong even you don't get awards or something else.
Keep smiling always do best, say thanks for the help received from others...😊....
Thank you so much for reading my article.
Please share your comments...

Darkness Reborn ~ Origins of the Ink Demon : The Final Struggle (3/6) ~
Maka Albarn : Alright, I'm finally here.
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : Well, this is the place.
Shotaro the Dokeshi : (as Shinigami) Sorry that we had to wait. (Converts to his true and original form)
Tsugumi Harudori : Looks like we're all in this together.
[Sonic Vs Shadow - Fumie Kumatani]
Maka Albarn : You all know the reason why we are here. It's because we wanted a challenge from the four of the Ohkuboverse that is us, I never thought that this would be our problem for the both of us, I though Shinigami would be the only to seek into power, but I realize that the Shinigami I knew was a charlatan, isn't that right, Shotaro.
Shotaro the Dokeshi : You betcha. Yohei, Mana, and I had to uncover your world's secrets and this is the truth that we all must seek into it, you actually thought that I made you the hero while being under one's influence, eh?
Tsugumi Harudori : Just to remind one teensy bit, I found myself that I wanted to be a hero of my true story and that what makes me the hero of someone that I wanted to become, the lies, the words, the fantasy role play in each of the stories. A charlatan like you have served you no purpose. That's why I decided that I'm being a worthless from Shinra's influence.
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : And I got a simple reason to ask you. If I was the hero of the original story before you, what kind of hero who wanted to kill God that easily, why being a God slayer was your choice, why you want to you show the world with courage. Who taught you in the story of your life as a hero?
Maka Albarn : Me, A girl who is destined to be under influence and I wanted to be a hero like you, Shinra! That's what you created my world and you were our inspiration in the past, the boy who created Soul World becomes the embodiment of Devil Chaos, Shinra Kusakabe. And what am I, I'm a girl who wanted to kick some villainous butts, I am the Meister, Descendant of Aliens, and hero of the real world, Maka Albarn!
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : I see then! But you know, I only made you think to ever step towards into my legacy and would eventually fall under my influence that has spread from the Ohkuboverse long ago! So that is why...I'll make sure to settle this score for us heroes! Let's see who is the strongest hero in the Ohkuboverse! You're going down, Maka Albarn!
Maka Albarn : Right back at ya, Shinra-san! But your heroing days are coming to an end!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : Okay, Tsugumi Harudori! If you really want a true story to end, then I suggest a true story needs to end and it needs a proper and better ending when it comes to Seven Rings in Hand!
Tsugumi Harudori : I won't go easy on you, Shotaro! A hero's tale must come to an end!
All : LET'S BEGIN THE HEROES-RENEGADE DUEL!
[For True Story by Fumie Kumatani plays]
"MAKA ALBARN VS SHINRA KUSAKABE"
Maka Albarn : Don't push your luck, Shinra! I'll make mincemeat out of you! Time for me and you to finish this quickly!
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : When this duel is over, I will show you the true power of Soul Resonance and bit of Chaos Control! Come at me, Girlie!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : I won't let you do this for Maka, Tsugumi! I know what I must gotta do!
Tsugumi Harudori : Balls out, Shotaro! I hope you like them getting crushed by my own hands! This is why I was born to fight a charlatan like you!
All : ...? Hey, this is the Sonic Vs Shadow Theme song! We need a battle song about the four of us battling against each other!
Jorgen : BINKY! TRACK 7!
Binky : Sorry! SORRY!
[Smile Venoumsly by Hidenori Shoji plays]
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : Now we're talking, we're kicking it old school!
Maka Albarn : Yeah? Well school's out buddy. I've been waiting for this for a long time.
Shotaro the Dokeshi : It's just you and me, Halberd Girl. Let's settle to this, Hero to Hero.
Tsugumi Harudori : Looks like you have some major balls, Charlatan of the Ohkuboverse. I bet I wanna know what it means to have no balls and I will make them drop hard! So what's it gonna be for you, clown? Lights out or Balls out, Kido!
"FOUR HEROES OF THE OHKUBOVERSE BATTLE".
(battle begins)
*DBZ SFX : Various Sound Effects*
Maka Albarn : I should've met you in my own time 10 years ago, Devil boy. You started Soul Eater from the very beginning, you said that I wanted to show the world what courage is! But no, you told me a lie and I knew exactly from the truth! You promised me that I would rescue Crona and I would be together! You Don't know what courage is all about! Why can't just tmake the make believes reborn, Shinra! Why things can't make believes reborn that are anew!?
Shinra : It's the reason that I made you and gotten everyone involved to be part of your story! Our author was such a weird man, but he got too stubborn and was full of greed, being a hero in the Ohkuboverse has a subject that lying hurts when it comes to the painful truth! I recreated my old world to create your world in the manga's story. The Time Eater exactly knew that I was scolded for recreating my world, I could've stopped Demon Vibe if everyone in the Ohkuboverse weren't too stubborn for the influence that I spread it!
Tsugumi Harudori : When I wanted to be the hero my story, you told that I would hurt a witch that were Ashley's people, I knew that you tricked me from the very start, my whole life has been a lie, a deception from you, Shotaro! That is why I defeated Shaula Gorgon because that wasn't a witch named Shaula, it was a heartless to that made us kill! You used everyone as puppets and got everyone involved! How does it feel like to a hurtful loser!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : To tell you the truth and to show you my appreciation, I was actually a slave to Darkside Death, Yohei said that I would become the God of Death that I would steal the title of that Deathless Girl Seto. I wanted to be part of the council that will make Shinigami, but the Men of Shinra's influence, made us so stubborn that he drove me to destroy non-heartlesses and monpolize political power! Power is such a indomitable thing to monopolize everything! That's why Darkside Death created the school as a facade to bring Planetary Conquest over Real World AU, Tsugumi! That's what makes heroes in the Ohkuboverse of the Past, Present, and Future! But with Darkside Death's Grasps, he chokes past, present, and future at the same time! This is the reason we blame humanity for making crazy-ass stories that were all make believes and bunch of baloney!
Tsugumi : Then why don't you make Ashley feel sorry that hurted her people and why don't just let them treat us as an equal! How does that sound, sir!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : I would have, if Darkside Death would never use me as an enforcer to Darkness, if witches think that were evil and the sworn enemies, then I say that this was our fault that we hurted her people and it's all because of the heartless and Shinra! Maybe I would too become an equal to Ashely's people!
Tsugumi : Then bring it on, Kid!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : You too, Halberd Knight! You're not half bad...for a hero like me!
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : I will be looking forward to a brand new start ahead of us, Maka! I'm gonna make it to the top, all the way to the end!
Maka Albarn : Survival of the fittest, Shinra! Survival of the fittest!
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : Well, it's no superior that survival is what we're trying to do, making us heroes to be living in our darkness while the other will be the sunshine to our light!
Maka Albarn : That's what I was...I was living in my darkness while Makoto was the susnhine to my light. Hero's can fall in love with darnkess and light together! I hope you wouldn't understand the true meanings of Yin and Yang!
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : You really are a little son of a b*tch. Hope things will even make you a lot sexier.
Maka Albarn : And that's a good suggestion, Shinra. But do you even kiss your mother when you open your mouth?
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : We'll be having a lot of fun together, the girls are gonna throw off their panties at me! I'm gonna prove to see who's the best hero there is!
Maka Albarn : You're on!
*DBZ/One Piece : Fighting Impacts*
(during mid-battle)
*panting*
Maka Albarn : You know...*panting* You're not...*panting* that bad at all. *panting* I've think I've underestimated you a bit different.
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : *panting* Like I was never gonna try. I hope you save room for your dessert, but this is it! It's gonna be the final showdown between you and me!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : This is where it's going to end!
Tsugumi Harudori : And I hope that everything will be a better tomorrow for the both!
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : And to this day forward...
Maka Albarn : The Ohkuboverse's finale will be...
Shotaro the Dokeshi : The Final...
Tsugumi Harudori : Struggle!
All : THIS ENDS...NOW!
*DBZ SFX : MELEE FLASH*
All : !?
*DBZ SFX : collapse*
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : Okay...now we're even.
Maka Albarn : I only wanted to end this, I just wanted to be the way it was. All of that courage that showed it was a load of crap anyway. This heroism in my development is bogus!
Shotaro the Dokeshi : Okay, I guess we admit our defeat...in a tie. Shall we call it a true?
Tsugumi Harudori : Truce.
(the four waves white flags to call it a truce)
Shinra : Maybe if we hadn't done something right. We should've done this in your era, Shinra. Maybe it's desperately that we could uncover Soul Eater's secrets right now.
Homura Akemi : (clapping her hands slowly, sarcastically) "Ha, ha, ha." That was quite enteraining, the four of you. I never thought that I had to say this, congratulations! You have finally solved the mysteries of the Ohkuboverse. You even make me proud, Maka Albarn. I would to be expected from a foolish girl like you, all of you have been the fools of a fool game. The one who framed wasn't the queen of Ink Demons, it was one of your friends that framed. More importantly, I had to wake you all up to reality and seek into truth. Your author was a such weird man and a complete imbecile. I never imagined that I would see his four protagnists fighting against each other.
Maka Albarn : So you've been watching us fight here. Hey, you're the girl who created this New Era!
Homura Akemi : That's right. I was the one who erased the world of Soul Eater, or should I say the remaining half of the Ohkuboverse erased by none other than me. Sorry that you never had a chance to see that punk kid named Crona ever again, you'll never find true love if you ever lonely feel again. Oh wait, you were in a love traingle between cool guy and Phantom boy.
Maka Albarn : What, you erased our universe for what?
Homura Akmei : I get to even scold you for being under Shinra's influence. You're still a girl living in the real world and that's the truth! Your mother is still with Lord Phanto III, your other father! You've been at the reaper's castle for around 10 years and not just 12 years. You all finally got yourselves what you deserve. So that's why I ended your by erasing the remaining half of the Ohkuboverse with the Time Eater's power, who happens to be my other half,a relative that I used to be part of.
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : (gapsed)
*flashes to a vision of his past...*
Shinra (Devil Chaos) : You...! I remember you! You're the relative to that entity who literally destroyed half of Soul Eater's universe! You're the Ohkuboverse's 2nd destroyer! I should've known it was you.
Maka Albarn : You mean that girl from a popular TV show is repsonsible for destroying our universe?
Shotaro the Dokeshi : She's the 2nd destroyer?
Tsugumi Harudori : No way! She destroyed Maka's world? But there is no way that a magical girl did that!
Maka Albarn : Why would you do this?
Homura Akemi : (chuckles) Admit it, Maka. (converts into her goddess form; Akuma Homura) It's the truth and it is the moment that you have been waiting for.
" Now I understand what this is all about. The Ohkuboverse was never really real anymore, there is one more thing to do so. It's literally the conclusion to this drama and mystery game."
"Everything has come to a conclusion now and I must break it to the point of no return. Whether this is going to end well or things might not end well at all, that is the question of how our story might be coming to an end!"

Alright, well everyone wants to be successful. At least, that is what I think. So, what does it take to be successful. Now, a lot of people spend huge amount of time trying to learn how to be more successful. People attend tonnes of seminars, spend hours reading books, etc just to gain a little bit extra knowledge on how to become more successful. Well, it is correct to do so but at times such activities can give the impression that success is a very hard thing to obtain. At times, this notion is what keeps a lot of people from achieving goals that they feel are too hard to reach. WHAT DOES SUCCESS MEAN TO YOU? Well, first we need to understand what success is. Success may mean different things for different people. For some people, earning a lot of money is success. For some it could be getting a promotion in their job. For some kid in school it might be winning a competition yet for some other kid in the same school it could be scoring full marks in a test. So, the thing is different people have different priorities and for every person the definition of success could be different. HARD WORK MAY NOT BE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS Now we tend to look in the outer reality and notice people and how they are doing in life. A lot of them may not seem as very successful to us. So, people usually tend to think of success as something very difficult to achieve. They feel that success can only be acquired by slogging for hours. Now, I don't say that by working hard you are wasting your time. But the thing that a lot of people might not be aware of may be the fact that there are a lot of things besides hard work that determine whether you will be successful or not. BELIEFS CREATE REALITY Now, I recently wrote a blog post on how beliefs create reality. So, the thing is that whatever beliefs you have about anything, you will experience them in your life. For example, if you feel that you can only get around 80% in your exams then no matter how hard you work, you will find that you won't exceed beyond 80% in your exams. So, your beliefs are something that affect your results in a huge way. FOLLOWING YOUR INTUITION The problem with the society is that a lot of people tend to look outside of themselves rather than listening to their own intuition. A lot of people don't question why things happen a particular way. A lot of people tend to mimic other people to be successful. I believe that one can always be successful if they walk their own path rather than following someone's footprints because they might not lead to the place where you want to be. Also, a lot of people tend to settle for less in life. I think such people have a mentality of not being good enough for certain things in life. CHOOSE A GOAL THAT IS FUN TO ACHIEVE Now, this is really important. Your goal must be something you really feel thrilled and motivated to work towards. If you are not having fun in your path while going towards your goal then it probably isn't worth it. Your goal must give you a sense of purpose and fill you with joy when you work towards it. A lot of times people work towards something that feels really boring to them. Remember the journey is more important than the end or the start. You can always find something that feels interesting to do. You don't have to do something that you don't like. You can always pursue your passion or anything that feels good to you. COMPETING WITH OTHER PEOPLE Your goal must never be to get ahead of anyone else unless you are running a race. What I mean to say is that you should aim towards achieving your own targets rather than outperforming someone else. For example, you and your friend are studying for an exam. If your motivation behind studying is to beat your friend then I guess you might be on the wrong path. The reason is that you might be able to beat him/her (although in most of the cases like this in my life it has happened the opposite way), but if your friend beats you then you will not feel good no matter how good marks you score in your exam.
If you get 95% and your friend gets 96% then you will not feel good about it despite scoring so well. So, set your own targets and don't compare them with other people. FINAL ADVICE So, my advice mainly is first of all remember that you can literally achieve anything that you really want to achieve. Know your goals. Know exactly what you want in life. Always see if there is something better you can achieve. Try to find the most suitable form of success for yourself. Once you know what you want, it becomes very easy to achieve your goal. Follow your intuition and you will get to the place where you have always wanted to be. Remember you can achieve anything that you want to achieve. Also, remember your job is to improve yourself rather than competing with other people. Be patient and persevere, you will definitely become successful.

Shopify Website Design Tips to Create a Beautiful Site
In the cutthroat world of eCommerce, your Shopify website development is your online storefront, your digital billboard, your silent salesperson. It's the first impression you make on potential customers, and let's be real, you want that impression to be stunning.
But how do you create a Shopify website that's both beautiful and effective? Fear not, fellow entrepreneur, for I come bearing a treasure trove of design tips to transform your online shop into a visual masterpiece.
1. Theme Symphony: Your theme is the foundation of your site's aesthetic melody. Don't settle for a generic tune! Choose one that harmonizes with your brand identity – playful and quirky, or sophisticated and sleek? Each note should resonate with your brand's essence. But don't forget functionality – ensure it can handle all the instruments your product range demands, like high-quality zoom or 360° product views. Remember, customization is key! Don't be afraid to tweak colors, fonts, and layouts to make it your own signature composition.
2. Mobile Maestro: In today's mobile-first world, ignoring responsive design is like conducting an orchestra without a conductor. Every note, from layout to image size, must adapt seamlessly to different screen sizes. Use Shopify's mobile preview tool and real devices to ensure your site performs flawlessly on every stage, from grand theater screens to intimate smartphone solos. Prioritize speed and clarity – mobile audiences have short attention spans, so keep your pages uncluttered, load times fast, and essential information readily available.
3. Content Crescendo: High-quality visuals are like captivating vocals, but compelling content is the heart and soul of your symphony. Craft clear and concise product descriptions, highlighting features and benefits in a way that resonates with your audience. Think "show, don't tell," letting your product descriptions paint a vivid picture. Don't forget to tell your brand story, weave a narrative that lets customers connect with who you are, what you stand for, and why they should join your chorus. Embrace the power of storytelling – use blog posts, customer testimonials, and even video to add emotional depth and texture to your composition.
4. Photography's Podium: Forget blurry phone snaps! High-quality product photos are like star soloists, demanding center stage. Invest in a professional photographer who can capture your products in all their glory. Consistent lighting and backgrounds create a polished and professional ambiance, while showcasing products from multiple angles gives your audience a full 360° appreciation. Don't forget the power of lifestyle shots – show your products in action, being used and loved, adding that extra layer of emotional connection.
5. White Space's Whisper: Whitespace isn't empty silence; it's the space between the notes, allowing each element to breathe and resonate. Use it to create visual hierarchy, highlighting important elements like calls to action by surrounding them with a respectful pause. Grid layouts provide structure and balance, like a musical score, guiding the eye and ensuring harmony. Remember, less is often more – don't overcrowd your pages, let your content shine with ample room to express itself.
6. Color's Concerto: Your color palette can evoke emotions and set the tone for your entire brand. Choose colors that complement your brand identity, like a well-rehearsed orchestra playing in perfect harmony. Limit your palette to a few key notes, too many can create dissonance. Use color strategically, like a skilled conductor highlighting instruments to draw attention to CTAs.
7. Font's Forte: Fonts are the unsung heroes of design, the voices that bring your content to life. Choose fonts that are readable and appropriate for your brand, avoiding overly decorative or difficult-to-read choices. Think of them like a well-cast ensemble, each playing their role to perfection. Limit your font choices to two or three, too many can create a cacophony. Use font size and weight strategically, like emphasizing headlines with a bolder voice while letting body text flow smoothly.
8. Usability's Encore: A beautiful website is useless if it doesn't convert visitors into fans. Optimize your site for conversions, ensuring every element is in tune with your sales goals. Make navigation intuitive, CTAs clear and prominent, and checkout seamless. Remember, a website is a performance, not just a static display. Make sure it leads your audience to the desired applause – a successful purchase and a loyal customer.
By following these tips, you can transform your Shopify store development into a visual masterpiece that not only resonates with your brand but also converts visitors into loyal fans. So go forth, maestro, and conduct your online symphony to success!

[Book Review] ✨THE WITCH OF PORTOBELLO✨
🧮 Score: 4.0/5.0 . “...In order for us to liberate the energy of our strength, our weakness must first have a chance to reveal itself.” -- page 284
This book is a captivating and thought-provoking exploration of spirituality, identity and the journey towards self-discovery. The author blended mysticism with philosophy through the interviews with various characters who knew the protagonist, Athena. Created a mosaic of viewpoints that gradually piece together the complex puzzle of her life.
Wow. Just, wow! Amazing actually. I mean, many other books/novels tell the plots from multiple perspectives, but certainly, unlike this book. Until the last few pages, I was still wondering: who’s the one conducting this research on The Witch of Portobello exactly? Was it Paulo Coelho, inserting himself as one of the characters? As much as I was wrapping the ideas around my head, by the end of the book, all questions were answered.
The themes of feminism, empowerment and breaking free from societal constraints are prominent throughout the story.
Midway through reading, I thought to myself: when her chaotic crazy life will settle down? What’s the purpose of this book? I was slightly jaded. However, at about the last 100 pages of the book, it's very crucial. I was stunned. All the plots building up to the last 100 pages were necessary for us to understand and empathise with the last 100 pages. The wait was worth it.
■ I saw a few people comment on Goodreads.com that this book is confusing, has a lot of back and forth, or it seems like a compilation, not a novel. It can be chaotic, I get that. I mean, that’s the beauty of this book! A rare form of storytelling! . ---- p/s: Although I do not condone and agree with many scenes and values featured in this novel, I must admit the content is complexly well-written and intriguing. I appreciate the author’s creativity. My favourite Paulo Coelho novel by far. If only the messages are not contradicting what I believe in and the fact that I feel sorry that the characters are still lost in life, I probably would give a higher rating. It is sad seeing Athena is already on the path, seeking to fill in the void she felt, yet she followed the lead of the disbelievers. Indeed, Hidayah milik Allah swt.
I am pretty sure, as much as this is a work of fiction, there are people on journeys like hers in real life. . ---- ● Buy a preloved copy here:

'SINCE its release, Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer has become one of the most talked-about films of the summer, garnering critical acclaim and box-office success.
Focusing on the life of J Robert Oppenheimer, the film tells the story of the man widely regarded as the father of the atomic bomb and how his work came to be.
The film has a global relevance unlike any other given the debate over nuclear weapons with organisations such as the Scottish Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) and Secure Scotland campaigning for a world without weapons of mass destruction.
What then have anti-nuclear campaigners made of the film? Does it go far enough in depicting the horrors of the weapon that was unleashed or does it leave something to be desired in that sense?
The National spoke with Janet Fenton, a representative for Words and Actions which currently provides a home for two organisations committed to peace and sustainability – Secure Scotland and Peace and Justice Scotland – about what she made of the film.
Thoughts on Oppenheimer Coming in at three hours, there’s not a lot of ground that the film doesn’t cover and Fenton, who also holds a role with the Scottish CND, says that on the whole she admires what it achieved.
“I don’t want to seem ungracious because I think it’s great for us to have anything that is actually pushing these issues in front of the public”, she explained.
“I think the film has an incredible amount of skill and there was lots of it that was really good – the photography was exceptional; the acting was superb and I really liked the score.”
She admits herself that her criticisms are more about “the film they chose to make rather than the film itself” and that some elements did leave her “dispirited”.
Fenton explained: “It does some really interesting and useful analysis of the way in which internationally scientists were fascinated by nuclear power and wanted to work together in a spirit of adventure and discovery.
“But for me, it doesn’t underscore the appalling political opportunism towards those scientists in creating something that really marked the beginning of human behaviour making major geological change to the planet.
“It’s so accurate and carefully made but I also don’t think there was enough criticism of the period it represented and the macho-patriarchy ideals.”
Fenton also felt the film missed an opportunity in not making a reference to John Hersey’s 1946 book Hiroshima - which tells the stories of six survivors of the atomic bomb.
“It’s a seminal work that really captures the awfulness, misery and catastrophic humanitarian cost of that weapon.”
New exhibition As part of her work with Words & Actions, Fenton is promoting a new exhibition featuring images of the human destruction wrought by the dropping of the bomb at Hiroshima.
The International Campaign for the Abolition of Nuclear Weapons is presenting the exhibition jointly with Peace & Justice and Secure Scotland.
It's based in Edinburgh on 58 Ratcliffe Terrace and is running until August 28 from 10am-4pm Monday to Friday.
On August 6, the same day as the bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, there will be a showing of A Guided Tour of the Unacceptable which deals with the Faslane nuclear weapon complex and gives an account of the history of protest and direct action directed at the base.
Fenton said: “We need to be made aware that these weapons are utterly horrific and inhumane.
“Being brought face to face with this reality can strengthen our resolve that such a crime against humanity must never be repeated.”...
What will the film’s legacy be? The release of Oppenheimer has been highly anticipated ever since it was announced. It’s likely to stay that way given it’s already being tipped for Oscar nominations.
But once the dust settles, will the world remember the film and use it as a springboard for wider discussions about the threat of nuclear weapons?
Fenton can’t say for certain but she remains hopeful.
“Anything that draws attention or brings the public into more awareness of the fact that time is running out for nuclear weapons is a good thing.
“It’s ultimately an issue of democracy. Scotland doesn’t want them, we’ve never wanted them and they’re here against our will.
“Scotland has no need for them and if this film makes people think about it a little bit more and want them to find out more then that can only be a good thing.”'

A/N: i listened to my favorite saddest songs while writing. be prepared. thanks for your kind feedback! gif not mine.
Series Masterlist
previous part
JJ snaps you out of your thoughts. There's an expression on her face that you can't find the words for. "Y/N? What does she mean?"
You have to swallow. Your throat is tight and you can barely breathe, so you cling to her to keep from sinking to the floor. You can't take your eyes off the two in the interrogation room.
"What deal?" Spencer sits up straighter than he already does. His whole body is tense.
Cat shakes her head. "I thought you weren't here to talk about her or you."
When Spencer slaps the table with his palm, she doesn't even flinch. You do, the harder, and JJ's hands clench into fists. But you only notice this out of the corner of your eye. "What deal, Cat?" His tone is harsh, leaving no room for Cat's games.
She sighs. "Maybe you should ask her yourself. After all, she did come here with you, didn't she? I don't think she'd skip this dance." Cat looks past Spencer to the one-way mirror, straight through it, as if she knows you'd be standing right there. Her grin is crooked and ugly. "Come on, Y/N. You should know I don't bite. Not without notice, anyway."
You feel JJ's gaze on you as you enter the interrogation room without a word. You close the door behind you and out of the corner of your eye you notice Spencer looking at you. But your gaze is fixed straight on Cat. You stop right at the door.
"It's good to see you again, Y/N."
You don't have to be a mind reader to know what's going on in Spencer's head. It's practically written all over his face. Again?
"Hi, Cat," you reply curtly. You feel like shooting her.
"I always knew you lived dangerously. But I didn't think you were stupid. Yet you were the smartest one on your team. No offense, Spencie." She says it like she's bored out of her mind, not like the whole situation could completely escalate in the next second. Spencer tries not to let on, but you can read the confusion on his face. "I guess I was wrong about that."
"What are you talking about?" you ask, involuntarily taking a step forward. Cat takes it as a sign to keep talking.
"I know you killed my partner in crime. Must have been quite a mess, I'm told. Shot right through the head. Kudos, Y/N. I knew you were smart, but you're also badass. Who would have thought." She raises her hand and inspects her filthy and chewed fingernails. Her gaze drifts to you without her moving her head. She looks at you through her eyelashes, which makes her look crazy. "Quite a pity about him. But he was really just my accomplice's boyfriend. So, not worth mentioning."
Accomplice? Boyfriend?
It only takes a brief moment for everything to come together in your head. Apparently, all emotion falls from your face, because Cat looks extremely pleased. "You didn't play by the rules, Y/N. And now someone else has to pay for it."
In three steps, you've crossed the room and pulled Cat from her chair. Before Spencer can stop you, you push her full force against the nearest wall, causing a gasp to escape her mouth. You press your forearm against her throat and she lets out a hoarse laugh. Her gaze mirrors yours. Fierce and unyielding. The pressure on her throat intensifies and she has to cough.
You feel big hands on your shoulders, yanking you back so that you stagger and bump into the table. For a brief moment, you want to fight back as you leap forward again to put a stop to Cat once and for all, but Spencer extends his arm to allow some distance between you. You don't look at him. Out of anger and out of shame, because this isn't you.
"What's going on here?", he finally asks when you've pulled yourself together a bit and he's sure you won't kill her the next chance you get. "What's she talking about, Y/N?"
Cat's look is challenging and you know full well she's not going to say anything. She's dropped the bomb and now it's up to you to make sure the explosion isn't too devastating. You look at Spencer and tears form in the corners of your eyes. There's no way to get around it. And he better hear it from you than from some crazy psychopath. You owe him that much.
"When you were arrested", you begin, hoping your voice doesn't sound as brittle as it does, "it was clear to me from the start that Scratch couldn't be responsible. When you were taken to Millburn Correctional Facility instead of protective custody, it should have been obvious to the others. It was no accident that they sent you there. It was too personal." You can barely look at him, which is why you stare at the floor. "It couldn't have been Scratch, but there was no one else who had a score to settle with you." Your gaze shifts to Cat, "Except for her.
I had no proof, nothing. But I was one hundred percent sure she had something to do with it. So I talked to Emily. She gave me the day off, and I came here." You suppress the urge to knead your hands, so you shove them into your pants pockets. Your gaze wanders back to the floor, though you'd like to look at Spencer. You want to know what's going on inside him, but you don't dare. "Cat denied having anything to do with it at first, but I didn't believe her. And then she made a deal."
"And that included?" asks Spencer. You have to swallow.
"She would get you out of jail, after all, she put you in there too. I knew you wouldn't make it through jail. And not because you were too weak, but because I knew there were some people there who wouldn't bat an eye to hurt a FBI agent like you. And I couldn't stand that, so I went for it." With each word, your voice grows quieter, though you try to sound as determined as possible. But the pain weighs you down and takes away your breath. You remember the visit then, and what it had cost you.
"And what did she want in return?" Spencer's eyes glisten as if tears have formed in them. He blinks once, and the shine disappears. "What the hell did she want, Y/N?"
You can't stop the tears streaming down your cheeks Your heart is beating fast, like it's about to jump out of your chest. You take a deep breath and brace yourself for what follows. "She - she wanted me to leave you. Cat knew that prison could never hurt you the way I would if I abandoned you. If I left, with no explanation and no goodbye."
Spencer's shoulders sink and his muscles are no longer stretched to breaking point. You don't dare look at him, so you stare at Cat, whose grin has actually widened. Psychopathic sadist.
"Actually, Y/N was never supposed to come back either", she continues the explanation, but Spencer continues to look at you. "That was the deal. You weren't supposed to tell anyone about this and never come back, but you didn't stick to that. You thought if you killed the guy and I continued to be in here, you could go back home and get on with your life." Her grin disappears and suddenly she looks incredibly bitter. "Very reckless, if you ask me. My birdie knows you're back home, and as a warning, she left you a trail of dead married men. Apparently you got the message, after all, you're here. That they are dead is all your fault, Y/N. Because you couldn't stay away from your beloved Spencer." She looks from you to Spencer. "It's tragic, isn't it? She loves you so much that she took on all that pain just so you could get out of jail. How incredibly selfless of her. And I'm pretty sure you weren't exactly kind to her when she returned, were you, Spencie?"
Spencer and you can't look at each other, so heavy is the pain on your shoulders. All the anger, despair, and confusion that had spread through you since you saw each other again gives way to an all-consuming feeling of pressure that you can't shake. The only thing that can give you both some comfort is the clarity that has been created. Spencer now knows what really went on, and you no longer have to keep secrets from him. But the matter is far from over.
You look to Cat, but can't find the words. She's won.
You leave the interrogation room without looking at Spencer or saying another word. What could you have possibly said? JJ looks at you with widened eyes as you rush past her. She has her cell phone to her ear, probably talking to Emily, but calls after you, but you don't stop. The air in the building is stuffy and you feel like you're choking on it. Your heart is racing and you feel sick. You just want to get out.
"Y/N." Spencer's voice forces you to stop. You stop so jerkily that you almost fall. When you turn to face him, he's standing right in front of you. His gaze is hard. He opens his mouth, but he doesn't know exactly what to say either.
"I can't, Spencer", you beat him to it. You want to turn and keep walking, but his hand curls around your arm. At the touch, you're struck by lightning.
"Don't you think we should talk about this?"
You should. Definitely. "She had the men killed because I returned", you whisper. "She killed them because I couldn't take it anymore. Because I wanted to be with you. It's all my fault, Spencer. And I'll take the consequences for that."
"So you're just going to leave? Without explanation and without goodbye?"
You don't want to leave, quite the opposite. You would love to throw yourself into his arms, kiss him and never let go. You want to tell him you love him, but you can't. "I can't stay, Spencer. If I did, she would kill more people. I can't be responsible for that. I'm sorry."
You turn away from him, but as you take a step forward, Spencer pulls you back, making you slam against his chest. Your hands settle on the soft fabric of his shirt as his settle on your cheeks, forcing you to look at him. His expression has changed. There is deep sadness in his eyes and he tries to blink away the tears that have formed in the corners of his eyes, but they fall down his cheekbones. All at once, he looks so young. "Promise me you'll come back? Back to me?" One of his hands clasps both of yours, still resting on his chest. He holds them tightly, afraid of losing you again.
You smile weakly at him and tears come to your eyes too. Your smile is honest, but sad. "I will always come back to you."

I'm sure it's obvious, but I must ask...
What is Drillburst's thoughts/feelings on Overlord?
This question got me thinking long and hard. I just want to hear this straight up.
Strap in, this is a long one!
If there was ever one word for him to describe his feelings on the king of nowhere, Drillburst wouldn’t be able to. There isn’t just one word to describe how he feels about Overlord.
Overlord, the one who put him in little more than a cage, forced him to kill others for his entertainment, subsequently breaking more than just Drillburst’s plating. It was him who had dropped in from out of the sky, disrupting the mercenary’s original task of fighting under Skyquake, turning everything from a normal skirmish to an all-out nightmare, one he had to suffer for nearly three years. And for what? Some petty score he wanted to settle with the nigh-indestructible Megatron?
Drillburst loved Decepticonism, in theory. The idea Megatron, a fellow miner like him, had heralded was once a noble and justifiable cause, one that he would’ve supported. But that principle had been demolished once the Decepticons began their campaign of brutality, war, and conquest, so insultingly distant from their original beliefs. Peace wasn’t being achieved through necessary means anymore; and Megatron, the founder himself, was subject to it all. In fact, he was the heart of it all. It revolted Drillburst.
Overlord was the worst insult. Drillburst had been aware of who the Phase Sixer was, long before he’d ever look him in the optic; he knew enough about his undying loyalty to Megatron, his high status as a Warriors Elite, and his terrifying presence rivaled only by his strength. He also knew that, unlike a truly loyal servant of Megatron, Overlord was opportunistic, self-serving, and sadistic, gleeful to end a life in ways so colorful that no one else in his entire faction dared to imagine their own fates being such. Somehow, Overlord was worse than the unhinged below his rank, and even the unhinged above his rank; and Drillburst had no doubt in his mind that he was fully aware of that notion—and reveled in it. To Drill, Overlord represented everything the perfect ideology of Decepticonism had become, and it made him sick.
And that’s just the ire he had before G9.
Overlord terrifies Drillburst. Always had, and most likely always will. Uttering his name would elicit a cold shiver to wrack through him, mental and/or physical, bringing everything that happened back to the front of his mind, if even for a moment. How he slaughtered other doomed souls for the enjoyment of Overlord and his Decepticon lot, and how he himself was beaten by the other with full force. There had never been a bigger moment of vulnerability and helplessness than when he was before the Phase Sixer, shrunken and pale under his shadow. Any sense of anger he had towards him had been smothered and hidden behind walls and walls of fear. He believed that Overlord could end him at any moment, whether dissatisfied with him or just bored; and that fear is why he always followed whatever he did. Like everyone else, it was forced obedience.
Perhaps the need to escape it all was why Drillburst chose option two. To take his own life would of course be a quicker method, but he wanted to see the light of day. Perhaps he was still gripping onto a spark of hope that hadn’t been quashed just yet. Perhaps he just made a foolish and uncalculated decision, but no matter why he chose to fight Overlord for his freedom, he paid for it dearly. He walked in to a false promise, and walked out with the receiving end of a vendetta. He wasn’t supposed to walk out. He wasn’t supposed to be alive.
He isn’t supposed to be alive, and he knows it.
One of the most haunting thoughts Drillburst has is how close to death he was that day. Had he not been an outlier, there was no doubt that he would’ve been horribly killed. The ability to detonate, which had caused him problems as a miner and a mercenary, saved his life—creating an even bigger problem in the process. He isn’t grateful for his outlier ability saving him; he’s horrified by it. In truth, when he detonated, he wasn’t trying to use it as a means to escape. It was supposed to be his last attempt at a struggle before Overlord would inevitably end him. But that’s not how it went—it was worse. Or better?
Drillburst is still struggling with the aftermath of G9, and with his extreme paranoia. While he’s trying to see things more positively, there is only so much he can try to shift. Even then, it might not stop the fate that was given to him. He doesn’t know what Overlord is doing as he lives his new life as a musician, but he believes—knows—that the Decepticon doesn’t take kindly to wins being stolen from him.
And if he comes, or when he comes, Drillburst doesn’t know if he’ll be ready. Will he ever be?

TC’s WIPs - Three Image Edition
Bringing these back because I have a bunch of new followers now~ The three WIPs pinned on my blog are up top and the rest are in alphabetical order under the read more.
F/F romance between a knight and a dragon (2 books). Mistaken for a princess in a tower in need of rescuing, the dragon’s mother is killed and she herself is hauled off to human court and must suddenly find her way under a new name and in an entirely new environment. The 1st book is coming out now.
F/F fairytale retelling, the main character pretends to be a prince in order to save her family from a tyrant. She unintentionally gets involved with the so-called most beautiful princess in the world who has a score to settle with said tyrant.
M/M, the main character is a witch who falls in love with a trainee knight. He becomes a trainee knight himself and lives a double life in order to try and keep the best of both worlds. Might end up being two books.
Gen, middle grade fantasy adventure about saving the realm from dark magic which has reawakened after a thousand years (4 books). First book published!
Gen, a coyote bard goes on a cross-country journey in search of a verifiably true epic tale in order to stop people from spreading tall tales because she thinks fiction destroys the order of the universe (yes, really).
F/F, a singer from the big city moves out to the frontier and takes up with a grumpy, asocial mage who unintentionally drags her through a series of magic-related events.
M/M, the main character risks his humanity in order to help a beast from the titular desert regain his own.
M/M flavored middle grade, a young prince and the last remaining gryphon go on an epic journey to find a way to restore magic before the prince’s country is destroyed by an enemy kingdom which has already regained it.
F/F, a horse trainer falls in love with the daughter of an organized crime lord and risks everything entering the extremely dangerous and illegal horserace he hosts each year in order to ask for her hand in marriage.
Gen, middle grade. The goddess of death goes missing and a young girl breaks into the underworld in order to find out what happened and bring her back.
Gen, the main character's mother refuses to believe that her daughter is not also a witch and gets her an internship with a very well-known magical corporation. Unfortunately something is decidedly not right with that business and it will take all of her (decidedly not magical) power to escape alive.
F/F sort of, two warriors from wildly different backgrounds (but both of whom abandoned their own people) are thrown together by fate and forced to travel cross-country in order to help a group of people who would be slaughtered without their interference.
F/F flavored middle grade, the main character enters a cross-country dog sledding race in order to win enough money to buy medicine for her sick friend.
M/M sort of, the main character has to go on a quest to rid himself of a curse that he incurred by stabbing a god, finds himself traveling with two other people both of whom also have curses to bear and secrets to hide.
F/F & M/M, a political drama where an ambitious princess agrees to marry an equally ambitious young general from a recently conquered territory in order to cause as much chaos as possible carve herself an easy path to the throne. But politics in the north aren’t any less complicated than politics in the south and she ends up having to navigate both in order to achieve her goals.
M/M, as a child the main character rescued a boy from a river and they were drawn to one another almost immediately. But society, their personal histories, and the secrets they have to hide create many obstacles for them to navigate.
A 4 generation spanning sociopolitical fantasy epic that is also an open sandbox world free for anyone to play in.
M/M & M/F, a prince gets more than he bargained for when the swan maiden he caught to create an alliance marriage turns out to be the swan maiden's brother pretending to be her. But he only pretends to be her sometimes. She’s still around and is very protective of her little brother.
Gen, the main character is framed for murder by his childhood friend and barely escapes his own hanging. The clock is running out for him to clear his own name and the only person he has on his side is one very strange child "detective".
M/M, a young man with memory issues seeks out the one person he remembers from his childhood and ends up getting drawn into a conspiracy that involves the fate of three countries.
M/M flavored middle grade, a young cultivator who's been cast out of his own sect embarks on a journey to meet with the current yaoguai king. Along the way he meets new companions and has plenty of adventures, while also revealing a conspiracy that his sect has been hiding for centuries.
M/M,a young man is pulled from his own world and thrown into another where he finds himself geas-bound to help a bastard prince reclaim his family’s throne from a usurper. Unfortunately the prince was not trained for anything like this and also, the two of them can't stand each other.
Gen, a potential series of fantasy murder mystery novels.
F/F, a fairytale retelling of The Twelve Dancing Princesses, set in the same universe as Temitope but involving a different country.
M/M, a group of people try to stop a prophecy that will lead to the destruction of their ~perfect utopian civilization~ from coming true which goes about as well as it always does. Honestly I don't really know how to describe this one yet.

Celestsea
The ancient tablet displayed a pair of pale-skinned, glowing humanoids, with large fins extending from their arms like the sleeves of a gown. “These were once my people.” Altia spoke, setting her spear down and stepping closer to inspect the tablet. “Once, our ancestors were known as the celestsea, and we were the holy agents of the divine within the vast oceans." She touched the taller of the figures, tracing a wing-like pattern on the stone. “Our goddess, Aquis, filled the worlds with her lifeblood, creating the oceans. From her blood, we rose, touched with divine power and protected by our ancient mother. We were gifted healers, and we served her faithfully since the dawn of the world.” Her tone grew heavy and sad as she continued. “It was to be our duty to ensure her son remained safe in the mortal realm while she worked, if things had gone differently. But alas… our devotion led to her death, and to her son being a scourge upon the ocean.”
We were both silent for several long moments before I was able to release the tightness in my throat and speak. “What happened?” I asked gently, knowing it must be a difficult subject.
Her face tightened, her four eyes suddenly filled with anger rather than sorrow, as she looked at me and spoke a name I should have known would be involved. “Deisis.”
—Alec Crestfall, ‘Across the Monster’s Sea’
Created by the goddess Aquis, the celestsea were blessed with divine blood to aid them in their duties as healers and caretakers– duties they performed gladly.
Angels of the Oceans
Pale and glowing, gliding through the water on sleeve-like fins, drowning sailors who are rescued by them often mistake them for angels, which isn’t entirely incorrect. They wear light robes made of seaweed and held together with clasps made of coral. The divine glow emanating from them removes any hint of colour from their pale blue skin, and they possess large fins running down their arms like the sleeves of a gown and smaller fins on their legs. They are taller than most, and slim, kept warm in the oceans by their divine blood rather than any insulation. They also have a hair-like crest on their heads, right above a pair of large yellow eyes and a soft, kind-looking face.
Primordial Healers
When the oceans were first created and filled with life, the primordial goddess of water, Aquis, created the celestsea to act as divine healers. For centuries, they have happily upheld this duty, healing all who come to them and seeking out sinking ships to rescue survivors. They refer to Aquis as their Mother, and communities of celestsea dedicate themselves to upholding her beliefs. Every celestsea possesses a divine, healing touch, and is raised to use it on any poor soul in need.
Few celestsea take up arms at all, but some choose to lean into the rougher nature of the oceans and work to prevent sorrow, rather than just healing it.
Celestsea Names
The celestsea will often change their names as they mature, but will usually settle on one when they are declared an adult. These names come from celestial words, and the journey of settling on a name is thought to reflect the long decision-making process of gods. They do not take family names, and, in fact, hold little standing in extended family, believing themselves to all be Aquis’ children, equally.
Male Names: Aqilon, Badairel, Faire, Nimeus, Ocenai, Seinem
Female Names: Acya, Clamae, Fronia, Mearen, Ovalin, Raphina
Celestsea Traits
Like all celestsea, you possess innate abilities granted to you by your divine nature.
Ability Score Increase. Your Wisdom score increases by 2 and your Charisma score increases by 1.
Age. Celestsea aren’t considered adults until they finish their first century of life, and the oldest among them can survive for nearly a thousand years.
Alignment. From birth, celestsea are expected to serve Aquis and protect those who dwell in the oceans. As such, they are taught to follow the principles of law and goodness.
Size. An adult celestsea rarely stands below 6 feet in height, and are surprisingly slim for an ocean-dweller, kept warm by divine energy rather than any natural insulation. Your size is medium.
Speed. Your base walking speed is 30 feet, and you have a swimming speed of 35 feet.
Amphibious. You can breathe both air and water.
Celestial Protection. You have resistance to radiant and necrotic damage.
Darkvision. Blessed with a radiant soul, your vision can easily cut through the darkness of the waters. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light.
Healing Waters. As an action, you can touch a creature and cause it to regain a number of hit points equal to your level. If both you and the creature are fully submerged in water, this number is doubled. Once you use this trait, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
Divine Blessing. You know the Shape Water and Spare the Dying cantrips.
Bioluminescence. As an action, you can shed dim light in a 15-foot radius. You may dismiss this light as a bonus action.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write Celestial and Aquan.
