greed-centric sinsmas usually involves buying YOURSELF a gift, with family members taking turns to unwrap and show off what they got to each other. ( it’s a big dick measuring contest )

so if a greed imp buys YOU something for YOU ?? it’s basically a love declaration.

BARBIE’S ACCIDENT/INJURY AND SUBSEQUENT SLIDE INTO ADDICTION —

about a year after the fire, when the circus had ( understandably ) downsized to a more street sideshow-like entity, barbie had her famous fall from the high wire. still in the deep depression left in the wake of her mother’s death, fizz’s slow recovery, and blitzø’s forced ( unbeknownst to her ) departure, barb had turned to the street for mild solutions for her melancholy. not anything crazy that early on, more just skunk weed and a xanax here and there.

despite this accident being caused 99% by the fraying of the wire itself, a salvaged piece from the charred wreckage of the original circus, and its subsequent snapping mid-show TO THIS DAY barb still blames herself for the resulting fall. ( if she hadn’t smoked earlier that morning, would it have happened at all ? ) this isn’t helped by the fact that cash TOTALLY supported that line of thinking and insisted if she’d been paying more attention, it never would have happened. after so many months of dealing ( and paying ) for fizz’s accident and the subsequent care, cash was unwilling to pay for the interventions to properly reset and repair her damaged hip. barbie found herself on a pair of crutches going about life as usual, working the concession counter or the ticket booth, trying to move as LITTLE as possible ( the WORST thing to do with an injured extremity ) to avoid the sharp pain shooting across her pelvis.

with a broken left hip and more miserable than ever, barbie began to dish into the pain meds she received after her hospital stay down in sloth more and more often. it just HURT so badly, her heart AND her hip, and they. . . made it go away for a while. only after she ran out of her own did she begin taking fizz up on his offer to share HIS rx ( established lore with fizzarollitm ) and sometime thereafter did his also begin to go. . . missing, without being offered.

when she couldn’t get more of the prescribed pills, barb began to turn to the streets for answers, quickly sliding from generic knockoff narcotics from greed to a the much cheaper, harsher drugs offered on the outskirts of imp city. her addiction seemed to take off so QUICKLY after cash kicked her out for skimming off the top of the ticket sales to fund her habit, it felt like overnight she went from mostly functioning to waking up in her own vomit on the side of the street.

EVEN NOW, at her big grown age and clean to boot, barbie is reluctant to even discuss a fix for her hip. WHY ?? well, a couple different reasons actually. the surgery to help her regain function and range of motion would not only require a re-break of the head of the left femur, it would also take the repairing of the torn/mishealed ligaments and the removal of the build up of scar tissue from years of her healing without proper physical or occupational therapy. which means a lot of AGONY; but being in recovery, and now terrified to ever take another pill and fuck that all up, barbie is unwilling and unable to use narcotic painkillers. and going through THAT kind of corrective surgery and the long road of recovery that would follow, she’d rather continue to walk with the left-sided limp. it’s been almost 15 YEARS, and the familiar, however unpleasant, is much preferable to the terrifying unknown.

aroyaltailor asked: Do you have any lore for some of the drugs in Hell? We know about H8 for example. How is that specific drug nastier than the rest?

holy SHIT this is a great question and I'm so glad you asked !! i have a ton of lore regarding h8 and I've never had an opportunity to yell about it one place so i hope you're ready to never hear me SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT THIS.

disclaimer !! everything below the cut is 100% fanon lore to this blog in collaboration with @fizzarollitm and @madefate ( a lot of this lore is the brainchild of our group chat over the last year or so )

h8 is a drug exclusively cultivated and sourced in the WRATH ring, where it is sold in very small qualities over the counter in capsules as a type of form of performance-enhancing drug. its desired effects include increased motor function, heightened sense, a decreased physical refractory period, and reduced inhibition. basically, it makes you feel fucking invincible for 6-12 hours.

utilization is typically reserved for older adults who struggle with energy levels and maintaining a personal level of wrath or physical prowess around times like harvest, pain games-like festivals, or holidays like sinsmas. however, because there are several cultural hang-ups regarding its use (notably implications of impotence or being 'past one's prime') among the citizens of wrath, abuse of h8 is generally only found OUTSIDE of wrath.

due to its low demand in its home ring, and the local knowledge that it isn't a substance to fuck around with, h8 is absurdly cheap and easy to obtain and traffic to other rings for the entrepreneurial hellborn.

it has a red, crystalized appearance that comes in a capsulated form over the counter, and in its street form (which comes in a larger crystal) it can be crushed and snorted OR melted to a liquid state and injected. it takes between 2 and 3 times MORE than the recommended dose for the average adult to achieve the high that h8 users -- often labeled as rageheads or h8ers -- are going for.

the effects from consuming h8 in qualities qualifying of abuse include euphoria, increased physical prowess, increased heart rate, paranoia, and jaw tension/stiffness (due to grinding) once a physical dependency is established, a user will begin to experience withdrawal effects 8-12 hours after their last fix, with that window decreasing the further into addiction the individual spirals. withdrawal symptoms begin with irritation and nausea and will progress into violent outbursts and high levels of physical pain quickly thereafter.

once a non-immortal being develops a physical dependence on h8, the likelihood of recovery is EXTREMELY low to none, and this is for several reasons.

the further from wrath the substance travels, so too does the likelihood of the crystal being cut with something non-consumable, such as a look-alike rock sugar or bathroom cleaner. this makes h8's quality variable between dealers and days and makes accurate dosing extremely difficult. as h8 is also an incredibly easy drug to overdose on when taken in off-label qualities, this raises the mortality of its user base considerably.

h8 was never intended for chronic use NOR for use in the qualities that addicts need to achieve and maintain their high. while its effects are intense, so is the physical toll on the body. even a ONE-TIME use will leave an immortal with a raging migraine and an aching jaw the next day, but a non-immortal chronic user can find themselves experiencing muscle wasting, psychotic episodes, and organ failure (specifically the heart, kidneys, and liver.)

h8 is not a substance that you can quit cold turkey. once dependency is established, the user's body will REQUIRE monitored intake of h8 in small qualities until they can be weaned off in a controlled setting, such as a rehab facility or hospital. half of the deaths related to h8 addiction are born out of an inability to obtain the next fix, or failure to procure placement in a treatment facility; at this stage of addiction, the stress of withdrawal on a body already under the stress of such a harsh drug, cardiac arrest is common.

many users also find the sheer pain of withdrawal too great to tolerate, making recovery nearly impossible, and self-unaliving is common among late-stage users.
