#(It's also hella bad x3)

[post-itpenny]

If you remember, after Ula gets married she ends up the owner of her own little Cafe by the beach near home. Drinks are all emotion based and I imagine flavors and such would be based off of her loved ones. So what are your clowns' fave type of Cafe drinks(flavor, appearance, add-ons)? Like smoothies, lattes, Boba, anything, all very aesthetially pleasing. It's hella specific so answer for only those you want X3

Alright, let’s see…

Atlas- Likes drinks like London Fog and cappuccinos. He thankfully dodged the insomnia trait so for him it’s more of drinking something while reading. It’s the *aesthetic*

Annie- Milk tea boba. Also Thai Iced Tea. She will also like to copy Atlas sometimes and will want a Lavender London Fog. She has unfortunately not dodged the insomnia trait but doesn’t seem to be as bad off as Vespers and Juno.

Vespers- Flat White, cappuccino, cortado, latte… anything with expresso. He struggles to sleep which just leaves him so tired sometimes.

Juno- Goes straight to the double expresso shot. Will also drink café au lait if toning down on the caffeine (my own personal favorite tbh). Juno unfortunately has the worst level of insomnia after her mother.

Magpie- All tea is good tea. But she is partial to Scottish Breakfast and other black tea blends.

Maggie- Strawberry smoothies, also fruit drinks with the boba pearls that pop.

PAC: What's Hidden From You About This Situation/Person

I'm so obsessed with Stranger Things and the new character, Eddie Munson, that I had to do a reading that involves him in some way. Icons belong to @iconsx4u

You know the drill! Choose max two groups that you're the most drawn to. Also, think about a specific situation or a person while choosing.

GROUPS 1-2-3 4-5-6

Reblog if you enjoyed the reading!

LEAVE A TIP: paypal.me/sadwidow

GROUP 1

Cards: The Chariot Reversed, The Tower Reversed, Death Reversed, 3 of Cups Reversed, 4 of Cups Reversed, 6 of Cups, Knight of Swords Reversed, Jealousy, Dark Moon Lilith Reversed, Yesoda Reversed, Hawk Spirit Reversed, Fragmentation Reversed, Praying Mantis, Ajoite.

This person/situation you're asking about has a lot of blocked energy that not only has roots in the past but there is a great possibility of past life blockages (soul contract of some sorts for example). It seems like this is something that happened multiple times for centuries, yet it's never able to break the cycle. It reminds me of Vecna's tentacles that capture his victims so they aren't able to escape. It was actually the first thing that popped into my head. The potential of this situation/person is locked like Vecna's victims, still and almost lifeless. There's third-party energy as well (for some of you it's an actual person or an earthly factor but for others for you, it's a type of entity that keeps it locked - much like Vecna!). This third-party energy gets involved with you guys, either on purpose or purely accidentally. It could be your person's multiple lovers and partners, parents, friends, or societal expectations. The energy of this situation must be broken and shattered so ugly stuff will come out that won't block the communication, but enhance it. When we're angry, we say more. But yes, this energy has roots in your first life so that's why it's been getting more difficult to unblock it. Time doesn't do you any favors, guys. Pieces lay scattered across the dimensions and the past. I'm not sure if it's worth it to gather the missing pieces and fight; if you choose to try, be ready for a hella difficult road ahead of you. The only person you can trust is yourself because the energy will try to manipulate you and lead you the wrong way. Can't even say "yes, you can trust your guides" because.... I just can't say that because I don't believe it's true. Our Animal Spirit Card literally says: "Let the spirit be your guide" but it's in reverse. So yes, be careful of fake/manipulative signs from the Spirit or the Universe.

Astrology: Aquarius x2, Virgo, Cancer x3, Scorpio x2, Aries.

Detailed astrology: Mercury/Moon in Cancer, Sun in Scorpio, influential Mars and Cancer/Scorpio.

GROUP 2

Cards: 7 of Swords Reversed, Page of Wands, Ace of Cups Reversed, King of Swords Reversed, Judgement, 10 of Cups, Beaver Spirit, Fidelity in Reverse, Moon, Trine, The Hermit in Reversed, Emily Bronte, Israfel in Reversed, Fated to Suffer, Moldavite in Reverse).

There's an energy of lies, secrets, and dishonesty here. If you're in a relationship/any type of connection and you have a bad feeling about whatever is happening but everyone else around you/this person tells you you're overreacting - you are right. There's something iffy about the whole ordeal and you're being gaslighted. Seemingly, everything is out in the open, you know stuff that no one else knows - but that's not all that there is to this person/situation. They are technically telling the truth, but it's so exaggerated and almost nothing like the actual thing that's happening that it might as well be a lie. Their intentions are not pure towards you - they need you by their side for their own benefits, there's nothing nice or kind about them. Do they have narcissistic/psychopathic traits? Because they're very good at lying and manipulation, people love them. It feels like for the most part you're happy when you're with them but the feeling of "something's wrong" is there, in the back of your mind like a plague but you brush it off because you'll never meet anyone like this. The bad stuff is dressed in nice clothes so at first, I was confused; but oh, this disguise is not even a good disguise, it will crumble as soon as you realize what's going on. Seemingly both of you have mutual benefits and you compliment each other but in reality, they change their personality to match yours. They exploit your need to have someone that understands you and gives you support - they feed off of your Moon. This message that you received is a warning to proceed carefully (it's like a distorted song that saves you while you're about to die - much like Vecna's curse!). Connection with this person will bring you nothing but pain and alienation - the longer we are under someone else's spell, the harder it is to escape. Open your eyes. Don't be afraid.

Astrology: Water Placements, Gemini, Scorpio x2, Aquarius, Pisces, Virgo, Cancer.

GROUP 3

Cards: 10 of Wands, The World Reversed, 9 of Pentacles Reversed, The Hermit, 3 of Wands, King of Wands Reversed, Mookaite Jasper Reversed, Envious Gluttony Reversed, Zora Neale Hurston Reversed, Parrot Spirit, Matariel, Ascending in Earth Sign, Mercury, Hope Reversed.

This situation/person needs some space and solitude. They have lots of issues at the moment and stuff that are happening which makes them exhausted. They don't feel like sharing their energy because they have so little of it. Nothing is going as planned and they have to make some sacrifices and bend their neck so they can resolve the situation. Don't expect any grand gestures from them or even communication because they have enough shit on their plate. They almost ask you not to get mad at them or cut them off; just wait patiently. It's like they're begging you not to go (also, Saturn is currently in retrograde and we have Saturn in reversed so shit hit the fan, so to speak). They feel very depressed at the moment and trying to get stuff done. They're trying to be smart about this and use their intellect, so on all the levels, they are tired. They're waiting for better times at the moment. They are asking you to listen and don't judge them; there is also a specific message for some of you - if you are in contact, use kind words and be patient.

Astrology: Leo, Capricorn, Sagittarius x2, Virgo x3, Aries, Gemini, Earth Placements.

Detailed Astrology: Saturn Retrograde or Influential Saturn, Saturn in Sagittarius, Venus in Virgo, Sun in Aries, Ascending Sign in Earth Sign, Influential Mercury, Influential Virgo.

GROUP 4

Cards: 4 of Swords Reversed, 4 of Wands, 9 of Swords Reversed, 8 of Swords Reversed, 5 of Cups Reversed, The Empress, Yesod, Addicted, Dog Spirit, Milk Reversed, Leo, Uranus in Water Sign, Baby, Bumble Bee Jasper Reversed.

Milk/Baby Cards: some specific message for you, but only for a few of you: there was a miscarriage/losing a child/stillborn. For others of you, a difficult childhood could be a factor here.

This person is healing at the moment, trying to escape their demons and the mind that equips them with nightmares and guilt. They are planning to go to the therapy and talk about their issues with a professional. They are trying to get to the root of their problems, getting into childhood trauma/past trauma/past situations and understand what can they do to be free of stuff that torment them. This is very slow energy, taking step by step, being careful and attentive, and working on themselves. It's all about getting out of depression and grief, battling pain and suffering. They also could go to an AA meeting or any other rehab clinic if their addiction makes it harder for them to be healed. The only thing you can do right now is to be supportive of them and not judge who they were/what they did; just love them as they are because they're trying to get better.

Astrology: Leo x2, Virgo, Sagittarius, Aries, Libra x2, Scorpio, Gemini x2, Aquarius, Taurus.

Detailed Astrology: Uranus in Water Sign, Influential Uranus/Venus, Venus in Aries, Jupiter in Libra, Mars/Sun in Gemini, Mars in Scorpio.

GROUP 5

Cards: Page of Pentacles Reversed, Knight of Pentacles, 9 of Cups Reversed, Justice Reversed, 6 of Pentacles Reversed, 5 of Pentacles Reversed, Marriage Reversed, Whale Spirit Reversed, Yesod Reversed, Bumble Bee Jasper, Hiding Your True Self Reversed, Rabbit, Alejandra Pizarnik Reversed, Ascending Sign in Fire Sign.

Whatever is happening, it's Saturn Retrograde's doing. Karma is activated and it's here to change things up a little bit. It's a very slow process but it's happening, you'll see the results over time. This energy is very difficult to read, it's all over the place, very tight and locked up, stiff even. It can bring some material difficulties but it's not going to be a big deal. I think finances/work area/health will be the most influenced here. For some of you, it's bad karma; for others of you, it just brings changes but nothing serious. Contracts/any type of commitment will be challenged or even broken. Past incidents/people will resurface, bringing back the issues that haven't been resolved. You're going to go through self-reflection and some alone time to make your mind up about things.

Astrology: Leo, Virgo x2, Sagittarius, Taurus x3, Libra, Pisces, Ascending Sign in a Fire Sign.

Detailed Astrology: Mercury/Moon in Taurus, Jupiter in Pisces, Ascending Sign in a Fire Sign, Influential Libra Placements.

GROUP 6

Cards: Page of Cups, Page of Cups Reversed, Empress, Page of Swords Reversed, 7 of Swords Reversed, Neptune, Uranus in Earth Sign, Fidelity Reversed, Keter, Peaceful Among Thorns, Butterfly Spirit, Mary Shelley, Bumble Bee Jasper Reversed.

Two messages are coming in. Also, we have a very strong message of Spirituality - it actually has a different meaning but when I think I got the gist of it, it changes. So this is universal for this group: forces beyond your control are working and you don't need to involve yourselves with magick/witchcraft here. It's almost like... don't do it. Patience is key.

1st: A lot is going on behind the curtains, it's hidden even from me. The gears are turning, something is in progress and it's very much happening in a quick motion. The truth will be revealed to you soon ( we have 3 pages) but before it can reach you, you will hear lots of stuff from other people that will not necessarily be true (mostly gossip or your own mind playing tricks on you). Two opposing forces are working here (one page of cups is reversed, the other is upright) as if fighting over you. There's a lot going on and I can't be any more specific since every situation varies from person to person. Whoever chooses this pile - this is a message of what's hidden will soon be revealed. The Neptune card really hides any details as if not to spoil the news for you. There's a transformation of sorts for sure - you will let go of some things to make place for new things that are coming. You just have to wait and trust.

2nd: This situation needs changing to be able to move forward (or, for some of you, it's already changing but needs more push). Secrets have to be revealed and communication has to be clear; both the parties have to be on the same page otherwise, it won't work. Whatever is happening, there is a miscommunication issues or you just want different things that don't compliment each other at all, they're almost opposed. There's a need to reach compromise but I don't think anyone knows that because there is so much confusing energy here it's so frustrating. Someone is not being honest for sure, making it harder for everyone involved. It's changing, that's for sure, it's just very messy and slow.

Astrology: Libra, Taurus, Aquarius, Leo, Virgo, Sagittarius.

So my vacation is going to start Sunday 20 and go through to Monday 27. ♥

During this time, I plan on working on a few fics and things. I do want to continue working on In Another Life, We Could Have Been Lovers as well as the next Tome chapter, but my update days for a lot of my fics are going to fall on either Sunday or Monday if I can help it in the coming weeks. ♥ When I used to put out lengthy imagines? Those were my go-to days for uploading. It's going to be a thing now for certain fics in the Overlord fandom to make sure I don't rattle or overshadow some folks. ♥ Tome and In Another Life will update whenever they wanna. I don't see the harm.

Amnesia and Contract I'm going to be putting on hold for a small time. I just need a breather given the chaotic mess those two fics have caused me. It's been settled, and I'm forever grateful, but--eef. I just have bad times with stalking (to which quite a few long time readers on my blog can attest to as I made a lot of it public back 2 or so years ago). Hell, search under flame or rant tags, and I'm sure you'll find it. lol

I will continue with The Demon King of the Desert as well and, possibly, add another part of my Naga/reader fic as I wasn't expecting it to be at 73 kudos... oO; But, I mean?? What's the harm in adding another chapter for funs? Funny thing is, I wanted to rewrite an old fandom story with Nagas and make it 100% original, so maybe that's the hint I should do so. ♥

I see all my silent subs, bookmarks and the like, and I'm just--I dunno. Wow. For things I made completely my own, I am shocked. It's awesome, so thank you. ♥ I don't say any of this to gloat, I swear to you. Whenever I look at a number and go 'I did that...?' it's to beat out my imposter syndrome (which is severe in me).

Even with 2,000+ of you here? I dunno. Unreal. Some of you even follow me from one stupid fixation to another just because you like me or my works or both, and I cannot even begin to describe that feeling. ♥

I feel like I don't deserve any of that. But you guys are here, so thank you.

#much love #me being sappy so forgive me x3; #sometimes when things got bad and dark #i felt like i was hella alone #and then i have to remind myself i'm not #also to 'shut up my writing is enjoyed' lol #b/c i shit-talk my own writing a lot #mod update #writer woes

Arie Rambles About Text Hypnosis!

(A long writing/essay about what I’ve learned about text hypnosis and the stuff I commonly tell people when they ask about it. :3 )

I adore text hypnosis. I’ve had chances to experience all of the main hypnosis mediums (other than in person, text, voice, video being the others) from BOTH sides, as a tist and as a subject, and text hypnosis is still probably my favorite. 

It also seems to be the least known and least liked of all the mediums, and I’ve found myself writing and rewriting information about and defenses of it time and time again, and I had the idea to write up a neat little document to share and save myself some time. X3

In this (extremely long) piece of writing, I will mostly be addressing a lot of the questions and complaints I’ve heard from people when I tell them I do text hypnosis. The main parts will be a discussion of trance states, the complaints people tend to make, a list of advantages vs disadvantages (and some suggestions for dealing with them), and a bit about tips and tricks and advice from what I do and what I’ve done. X3

Before I begin, I still very much consider myself an amateur, please do not take this as straight fact, it is merely a writeup of my opinions and what I’ve experienced. (At the time of writing, I’ve been doing text hypno as a subject for about a year and a half, and as a tist for about a year.)

Introduction, mostly about kinds of trance states

A lot of the misconceptions about text hypno are at heart misconceptions about hypnosis itself - I’ve also done a LOT of working with newbies and introducing them to hypnosis, and I always tell them that the first thing to do is to toss away pretty much whatever their preconceived notions are. Film/tv shows/books and stage/street hypnosis are fun to watch, but what they portray are very specific ways of approaching trance - possible, yes, but not common in actuality.

The popular image of hypnosis is of someone going limp, eyes closed, unable to move, barely able to respond aloud. Or, as in many thriller/spy movies, someone hypnotized against their will, brainwashed and able to be set off with a single word to go do...whatever they’ve been programmed to do. And those are POSSIBLE, just not at all common. (The second usually requires a great deal of drugs and other bad shenanigans, but that would be another topic for another informational writing. Perhaps I’ll write on subject agency one day. Likely I’ll not. xD)

However, trance states come in a HUGE variety of appearances, and there are some that happen in everyday life, outside of hypnosis. The most common one mentioned is if you’re driving along and find yourself at your destination without really noticing the journey along the way. Another is reading a page of a book and realizing that you can’t really remember any of what you just read. ‘Zoning out’ is a type of trance state. I like to consider those uncontrolled trance states, and hypnosis and meditation guided trance states. (And the difference between those, to me, is like someone walking ahead of you and leading you down a path (Meditation) vs someone taking your hand and pulling you down a path (Hypnosis))

(I always tell newbies in a first session that if they feel lightly relaxed, I consider it a success. Like any other skill, it is something you can build on and deepen *pun intended*. ;3)

And people can trance differently at different times - most of the time I’m ‘down’, I’m just very still and seem to focusing intently on the computer screen, either waiting for words if its text hypno or listening for words if its voice or video. I have gotten to a point where I can go body limp, face blank, completely out of it levels of trance, but it’s not something that happens commonly, and not something I want to have happen commonly. I very much prefer the kind of trance state where you can listen and react and are in an incredibly suggestible state. ;3

Complaints and Misconceptions, Mentioned and Addressed.

WITH THAT SAID, let’s get back to text hypnosis. 

There’s a few major complaints and misconceptions about text hypnosis, and I’ll go through them one by one with the common points I make in response.

“Text hypnosis can’t be real, because in real hypnosis the subject goes completely limp and there’s no way they can type.” (This is an actual thing said to me by a supposedly trained and credited tist I was negotiating a session with. When I tried to say actually, that’s not true, he sent pictures of his girlfriend to ‘prove real trance looks like this’, and jumped down my throat when I asked if he had permission to do that. I’ve had some interesting people in my DMs in the past. xD)

- Those paragraphs up there about trance states? Yep, that, that’s how I usually respond. (Although I may or may not have gotten REAL detailed about some of the things I’ve done while under in text hypno when I responded to the interesting individual I mentioned. x3)

“I don’t understand how someone can type while they’re tranced.”

- Unless you’re someone who genuinely struggles with typing and has to consider every key as you press it, in general typing is not exactly an active thought activity. Most of the time you don’t go ‘I need to type yes, so I’m going to press the y key now, and the e key now, and the s key now. Often, you don’t even think ‘I am typing the word yes now.”, you just...think words and type them as you go, without even directly thinking about the keyboard.

However, it is also something you can work on making easier and more natural. When I’m working with someone new who is uncertain about typing while in trance, I will start by not making them for the first session, I’ll take them down, then bring them up again and check in on them and ask for feedback. I tell them that any questions they see during trance they can answer aloud or in their mind, whatever works well for them. When they’re comfortable with that level, I’ll start having them answer with a y for yes and an n for no (and make sure to ask only yes/no questions). We’ll work up from there as necessary. :)

“I hate text hypnosis because there’s no feedback.”

- I will grant that feedback is not as immediate as it is in voice/video/in person. You cannot hear or see the person and know, moment by moment, how they appear to be doing. However, there are many ways of getting feedback, and sight/sound are not the only ones by a long shot. 

Especially in a first session, I tend to do a series of short drops - taking someone down a little bit, bringing them up, and checking in on how everything is going, what’s worked well, what hasn’t worked as well, etc. Not only is this a good way of getting feedback of how things are going, it also serves to fractionate the subject a little. ;3

As you do more text hypnosis, you also get to know things to watch for - responses starting to slow down, grammar and spelling changing, fuzzy typing (oh gods, I love fuzzy typing~), etc. Having that history of what was typed means you can also have your subject read back over what happened and give you feedback based on that - I know quite a few people whose memories get fuzzy about what actually happened in sessions, but having that record can jog the memory and help them go ‘oh yeah, that happened, and this could have gone better, and...”

Sometimes I feel like it’s *better* feedback in the long run, because I can scroll back through the history and see what I’ve done in the past and how it’s worked. Since I started doing mostly voice hypno with my pets, I’ve missed having that record, because I have a terrible memory. ^^”

“Text hypnosis is fake, it’s all just roleplayers.”

- Sometimes, yes. Usually that’s something you can figure out if you make sure you have a good, thorough discussion and negotiation beforehand, to find out what everyone involved wants out of the session. If it’s something that really bothers you, make sure to include it in your list of questions.

I would say this is a VERY important thing to find out if it’s someone you’re planning on doing an extended number of sessions with, but that’s also the kind of person you should have constant ongoing discussions with anyways. (Hell, I’ve been with my tist and my pets for a long while now, and we still periodically have negotiations. Things change and need to be rediscussed. It happens. :3)

If it’s a one off session, well...at least you’re getting practice with your writing, right?

(I will update this from time to time with other frequent questions or complaints I hear or receive.)

Advantages vs Disadvantages

Now for something a little more fun! Advantages of text vs the other mediums, as well as disadvantages and how to overcome them. :3 (This is definitely a section I’ll update over time, as I think of more things to add. ^-^)

Advantages:

- One of the absolute best things about text is the record it leaves. Unless you record your sessions, voice and video and in person sessions are left only in the memories of the participants. In text, unless the place you’re typing in is deleted after a certain point (or if someone edits their text afterwards, tho’ that actually can be fun too, and I’ll address it later. ;3), you have this useful record of what you did, what was said. 

This is great for multiple reasons. The first and biggest one for me is how much it helps, considering my memory issues - I have a shitty memory, and forget things way too easily. On both tist and sub side, it’s great to be able to scroll back and reread what happened in a session. Second, rereading is a great way to relive and refeel those memories (especially if you miiiiight possibly have the ability to reexperience memories almost as strong as the moment they were made, coughcough) which is also hella good for conditioning. (;3) Third, it can be fun to link back to certain points or use bits of the written record against people. You can tease them with things they wrote, reference past experiences, or (and this is definitely absolutely completely hypothetical and not something I’ve had done to me at ALL, oh no. >.>) leave little ‘traps’ if you know they reread - “When you reread this, send ‘this message’ to me so I know you did, and then forget~” kinds of things.

This fact can also help if you have different schedules or are in different time zones, you can leave short written bits for the other, delayed action traps so to speak that go off when read - not as a replacement for active sessions, but a fun supplement. :3

- Related to this idea but in a different direction, you can create...hmm, kind of ‘homework assignments’ for a subject to read later, or read over and over again. VERY useful for conditioning, especially if you have a suggestion or an order of ‘once you have finished reading this, write [this sentence] to me to let me know you have read it.’

- Another HUGE advantage of text is privacy. I still live with my family and, while I have the benefit of a basement room, interruptions are common and curious ears are a possibility. For people who live with roommates or with bedrooms in the house closer to family members, privacy becomes even more critical. On the subject side there might be some visual signs of what’s happening, depending on what’s being done and how they trance, but overall on both sides it will just look like concentrating intently on the screen and typing, just like writing an email or visiting with people on a discord. 

As a side note to that, you can also do fun things like be innocently sitting in a voice channel with them, chatting with other people, while sending them suggestions or triggers in text, and watch them try not to react, try to resist. ;3

- Just like there are certain tricks only doable in voice or video or in person, there are things you can do in text that aren’t easily replicated in text. 

Just a few ideas off the top of my head are using formatting for various kinds of emphasis (italics and bold are great for helping to add ‘tone’ to your typing, strikethrough can be a fun way to tease someone or to say something you’re too flustery to admit openly, spoiler text can be used to tempt someone and trick them or trap them); italics can be used to denote ‘actions’, which some people either have or can develop the ability to ‘feel’; making use of brackets for different effects (anything I write within {these} you obey immediately and then forget doing is a big one. I’ve created an ability for like...the back part of my head to communicate with my tist even when the active part of my head is dropped, which is pretty useful to be able to go {hey, that thing you suggested got interpreted wrong and I’m kinda stuck now}, and report on things without having to actually come back up. x3); tying triggers or suggestions to emotes to have innocent seeming ways to play with someone or fluster them; and so many more. X3

- Text hypnosis is a godsend for people with hearing or speech problems. I have certain hearing issues that make it hard for me to hear people with certain voice pitches, especially when over a phone or a voice channel. It can break immersion and be frustrating if you have to keep asking for someone to repeat what they’ve said or repeat yourself for someone. You don’t have to worry about volume control or if your microphone is picking up everything you’re saying, don’t have to worry about people misunderstanding your accent, don’t have to worry that you’re mishearing something and responding in the wrong way. 

- One of the biggest reasons I love text hypnosis is the small amount of space I have to think about what I’m writing before I send it. I am WORLDS more creative with my phrasing in text as opposed to in voice, because I don’t have to worry about stammering or stuttering or hesitating while I figure out where I’m going next. Plus I have a tiny amount of time to change what I’m sending before I hit send, if I realize mid sentence that its not what I want to say. I can be thinking about the next line while I’m still typing the last one, but I can’t think of the next sentence while I’m in the middle of saying the current one.

- Seeing a whole page full of typed mantras is lovely, just saying. ;3

Disadvantages (and potential fixes!)

- Biggest one is lack of immediate feedback, which I discussed earlier. :3

- Those who aren’t as skilled at typing or reading may find themselves having some issues. One of the things that brings me out of trace the fastest is having to wait for too long - this is a major disadvantage for tists who are slow typists. ^^”

This problem does present more of a difficulty to get past than some, but I do have some suggestions to try. One thing I’ve done (and that can also be useful if internet flickers and having ‘buffering time’ so to speak, for ANY medium that uses the internet) is to account for that at the beginning with something like “If there is quiet for a moment, you’ll find yourself quietly rereading the last few lines you’ve received, each line you read helping to keep you calm and keep you deep.” or “Any time there is a pause in the words you read for more than a few seconds, you’ll find yourself focusing on [some spot on the screen].’ Specifically on discord, the ‘someone is typing’ message can be useful as a focus anchor.

I don’t approve of copy/paste text hypno in the most part, but perhaps if speedy typing is not something you’re good at, and if it’s a basic induction, AND if you tell your subject what you’re doing, then I could see using it to help make up for slower typing. It’s often easier to keep someone in trance with slower typing than it is to take them down in the first place. You could also possibly give them a written induction file to basically prime the pump. The key is to talk to the subject and find out which, if any of these options are potentially usable. (Also make sure you write your own induction, don’t just copy someone else script.) I would suggest being ready to throw in some in the moment typed lines as well, reacting to things the subject may say. Be ready to improv a little.

- This is more of a problem with manipulative, bad tists than with text hypnosis specifically, but a written record could be used against you (in the same way that someone could secretly record you in the other ways and then use them against you). Be very careful about what information you share with people, basic internet safety stuff, okay?

Also watch out for if someone edits or deletes that record in an attempt to gaslight you or mess with you. If that’s a concern, you can make backup copies of sessions to keep on your computer so you always have the original to consult. Most chat programs that allow editing will also indicate that the original has been edited, so that can also help.

And finally, a few tips and tricks I’ve picked up, basically things I’ve found fun to do, from either side. X3

Assorted Tips and Tricks

- Text is AMAZING for teasing. I am actually known and am infamous for my teasing (there is a server where I helped contribute to a week of so much teasing in general chat that they designated a separate channel for heavy teasing. x3) - I started dabbling in teasing for weeks before I actually tried my hand at any actual hypnosis. (Teasing is wonderful in voice, too, but I have noticed sometimes if someone is chatting normally, then suddenly throws out something teasing, it can be easy to miss it among the normal chat. It’s much harder to miss when it’s in text, especially if accompanied with an emote. ;3)

In text you can also leave teasing messages for someone to see later, maybe after they’ve gone to sleep, or while they’re playing games, or distracted in voice chat somewhere. Like a fun little trap they spring later, and you get a lovely ‘hfouiwenfkwje!!’ later. x3

It’s also fun to have ‘in jokes’, so to speak, and to slyly slip those words and phrases in with normal talking, and get people flustering that way. (For instance, if you use a certain kind of imagery to drop someone, like balloons, and then find ways to slide balloon references into your typing to remind a subject of that session.)

- Group hypnosis is a lot of fun - there’s a few places I’m in that have text channels that allow open hypno, and slyly twisting around the conversation and playing with words until you catch a bunch of people and set them drifting is fuuuun.

It’s also sometimes easier than in voice, because either you have everyone mute and you feel like you’re talking into a void, or you have a chaos of overlapping voices. In a group text session, you can often begin with something like ‘the more you see others type the same kind of responses you do, the more the phrases affect you.’ I have seen cases where you have almost group mantras going on, and the people involved said seeing the others typing definitely added to the experience.

- If you DO have an opportunity to do voice at least once, or once in a while, you can make use of that to add to your text hypnosis - I have some people I have done BOTH with, and they said that they were pretty quickly able to ‘hear’ my voice in my typed words - I actually try very hard to match my written style to my talking style for that very reason. :)

I also have a few emotes that apparently really resemble expressions I’ve done in video before, and I can make use of those emotes to evoke memories of those expressions, and things I’ve done while grinning just THAT way~ ;3

Conclusion

So!

Almost a month after I started and many pages later I am done with what was supposed to be a quick little writeup of ‘things I tend to tell people when text hypnosis comes up’, and knowing me I will continue to edit and add to this as I think of new things.

However! It is done for now, and I hope my rambling was useful as well as entertaining. :3

I am more than glad to expand upon anything I’ve written, my DMs are open for questions or you can track me down in a discord server and ask there, I’m in a few different ones. ^-^

[andmaybegayer]

can i get some just general tips on cooling my computer cause it overheats real easy

You’re in luck! Until a couple years ago I had a laptop that ran at 95°C all the time and straight up couldn’t play 720p youtube videos unless it had supplementary cooling.

If you’re talking about a laptop, There’s a couple things to do:

1) Clean out your laptop. If you have pets or have been working in a dusty place or have just had the laptop for a while, dust has probably clogged up the fans and heatsinks a bit. I usually just take a vacuum cleaner, block all the other holes with sheets of paper and pull a vacuum on each of the fans or vents in turn. This cleans out a fair deal of dust and will usually help a bit. If you can, taking the bottom cover off will give you better access but that’s hard to impossible on a lot of devices so don’t sweat it too much.

2) Check for unnecessary programs running in the background. If you have an aftermarket antivirus like Norton or McAfee or Comodo or whatever, it may be scanning your system every time anything happens. This can cause your CPU use to be really high all the time, which both drains battery life and will heat-soak your machine, causing it to run slower. Personally I think that Windows Defender is a perfectly suitable antivirus for most people, but you could also consider turning off always-on scanning. Check your task manager to see if anything weird is running, and turn off any unwanted apps on startup (open task manager, go to advanced view, go to startup application tab, and disable any junk)

3) Get a laptop cooler. One of these bad boys.

That’s mine, it’s the Coolermaster NotePal X3. It’s fine. There are cheaper ones like the NotePal CMC3 and a thousand generic varieties I’m sure you can find on amazon or whatever your local amazon equivalent is. Most physical tech stores will carry a few, the main thing is to get one with a fan. This one has a big ol’ fan in the middle. Plugs in to USB for power, pushes cool air up and around your device, or sucks hot air away from your device.

This has two benefits: 1) airflow will carry off some heat and improve the heat dissipating ability of your device above and beyond what the internal coolers can handle, and 2) it lifts the laptop up above the surface it’s on, giving it access to more fresh, cooler air.

You probably know that you shouldn’t use your laptop on a soft surface like a bed or blanket, but even on a solid surface, your laptop might be drawing air in from a tiny 3mm gap underneath. This gives it a lot more room to work with. There are passive lightweight coolers that don’t have fans, just lift your device off the surface. I had one of these, they’re fine and quite useful if you’re on the go a lot. Either way, a stand like this will help keep the machine cool and will also let you use it on a bed without any problems if that’s your speed.

If you really need a portable one, there’s these integral designs that you can stick directly to the back of your machine, but they’re mostly for newer macbooks and on a lot of laptop designs it either won’t fit or will restrict air intakes. Note that the fan coolers will reduce your battery life, running a big fan like that takes some power, but hopefully you’re staying home at the moment.

If you have a desktop you’re going to need to be more specific. I can help but you should at least send me a description. It could be anything from poor thermal paste application to incorrectly wired fans to just straight up having mismatched parts.

secret additional option you probably shouldn’t try:

You could repaste your laptop. If you’re confident in your repair abilities, you can replace the thermal interface material between your heatsink and processing chips with something higher quality. The factory thermal paste is usually basic stuff chosen for longevity rather than performance, and it will slowly degrade over time. In the extreme cases (using liquid metal) you can see pretty significant improvements, but this is messy, somewhat risky, involves completely disassembling the device, and working with laptop heatsinks is a finicky proposition at the best of times. When I did this with a middle-range paste I saw a small but mostly negligible improvement. If I’d used a higher quality paste it might have been better.

You can mess with your fan curves: depending on the laptop you have you might be able to manually control the fans to make them push harder in response to rising temperatures. My laptop has a button you can press to make the fans go absolutely ham, but it’s also hella noisy. Whether you have manual control at all is a crapshoot that varies between machines so this isn’t a reliable option.

Oh shi, matchups? I'm a slut for matchups. I'm Amy, hella short (like 5'1 oops) and an aries; I love to joke around and laugh, a lot of my conversations revolve around making memes and jokes, but I also love to help my friends and have deep convos. I'm pretty shy and have pretty bad social anxiety, so I have trouble with new people usually, but once I get to know someone I will never shut up. I love animals and own a bunch, and love to draw. I'm also pretty emotional. I also swear a lot oops

Fun fact! That opening right there had me cracking up for like 10 minutes becuse it sounds just like my bestie 😂👌 that aside! Let’s get to this!

I match you with*slaps hands down on desk*

MAMMON!

No damn hesitation! 😤

Just picture this. Mammon resting his arm on your head, a cocky remark about you being short earning him a quick jab in his exsposed ribs. You both end up laughing after a little glaring match.

Your anxious around new people, WELL! The GREAT Mammon is obviously going to be the one you open up to out of your little shy bubble first (yes he will hold that fact smuggly) . He’s hovering around you from day one! You have no choice but to get to know him :3

Your swearing will be easily matched with this loud mouth ball of adorable idiocy, just casual conversations and every other word is ‘fucking’. Earning you both heavy and obvious sighs from Lucifer.

He loves your laugh, and if he’s the reason behind it for any reason, him being a dingus or a joke he just told you as you walk to class, he’s just going to be heart eyes. Smitten boy is smitten but totaly in denial x3

Communicating with memes in the house chat will become the norm and only Levi will have a clue what’s happening.

Eventualy he will open up the longer you know each other, happy to listen to you late at night as you talk about this and that. Catch him blushing after you turn to look at him and he’s just amazed that you are so smart, you have all these deep thoughts? And your with him?!

You know your both going to get those three hour lectures for Luci-loo F A R too often! It comes to the point we’re your both holding back giggles and mouthing words and jokes to each other when the lecturers eyes are elsewhere.

Yes you get caught but still... your both as bad as each other you just can’t help it.

Exspect to be skipping class, Mammon would 10000% rope you into some of his sceams to make Grimm unless you lay out how it’s not gonna work.

You draw?! ‘Draw me, Amy! A hand drawn image of the GREAT Mammon, by a rare human?! It’s sure to go for a high bid!’

If you do cave and draw him, he’s going to keep it safe, sure he will tell YOU he sold it, but in reality it’s hidden away near his bed, he’s so happy you took the time to draw him in your style.

He would also just chill with you in your room, watching you draw over your sholder while playing music on his D.D.D. Will obviously say he’s only sticking around becuse ‘I-it’s my job, yaknow! Gotta baby sit ya. That’s all!’

Hope you like my little reasonings dear!! Thank you for sending this is and keeping my obsession contained for another day 😂

Honorable mention: Satan.

He’s reserved sure, keeps his emotions in check. But I think that will be a good reason to have you drawn to him at first, sure the avatar of wrath should rightfully be terrifying but he gives me this calming notion most of the time leaving him less intimidating or over the top like his brothers. Deep conversation in quiet moment, check. You have animals? You know kitty boy is going to want to know all about them. Asking as a passing comment of course.

#obey me matchups #obey me mammon #obey me #obey me one master to rule them all #shall we date obey me #and as always i have no idea how to tag :3 #matchup by angel💜 #h.m by angel💜 #( MATCHUPS . )

7 days post top surgery

Nervous omg. Dunno what to expect, never undergone surgery before. Anaesthetic is pretty nice, not exactly how people described (I started dreaming after I was coming round. Also tried to tear off the oxygen mask, apparently this is normal). Was given morphine even though, surprisingly, there wasn't much discomfort immediately after (apparently surgeon gave me a general anaesthetic but even after it wore off all was good!) The night was tough, I'm used to sleeping on my side and that was impossible plus of course I had to get woken up for nurses to check BP and temp. but overall not as bad or uncomfortable as it could have been

Discharged in the morning (Friday) and given instructions on what to expect, physiotherapy etc day goes by okay, I eat a LOT and get a bunch of protein foods, I sleep fine with some discomfort (still can't fully lie on my side)

Saturday's good, I feel more rested and take a few long walks. Take a peek at my chest under the post surgery binder, all looks good, no leaking (and no touching!!), absolutely no extra pain so I haven't taken meds since Friday 🤔 now I don't know what to do with the box they gave me

Discover that food in the supermarket down the road is infinitely cheaper than the hotel (you'd think this would be a no-brainer but hush), start buying meals from there. It's Sunday so not as much open, head to the park to eat. Apart from stretching just a bit too far and causing temporary sharp pains, no problems at all

Full range of basic movement is back! Still can't raise my arms completely above my head or do push-ups but much better than I had anticipated. Thought the medical tape under the gauze was something to do with the discomfort of lying on my immediate side. Quickly realised that was covering up to and sticking to my stitches,,, oops

Undid my binder under my shirt to get a bit of relief (redid it up asap!). Sweat + healing is making everything hella itchy (and has been for a few days now). But not long now!

Finally everything got removed today. Have to keep the binder on for a little longer (but not 24/7) but I can wash a bit more generously now! The nipple grafts are still healing so I still have gauze over them (and silicone beneath those) plus a little tape over my stitches. All in all things look AMAZING, so clean and it's nice to be able to move around without feeling The Tiddies ™ x3

Multiverse AU: McDanno edition

Case Premise: There’s a lab being used in Hawaii that’s hella dangerous, it attracts 5-0′s attention and there’s a machine that’s about to blow, Steve being Steve doesn’t wait for proper help cos the bad guy is getting away and goes after him, there’s a blast...but rather than be killed, he’s sent to another world...or rather another universe. 

A universe where the Steve of that world is planning his 10th year wedding anniversary to the Danny of that world. 

Basically is Canon Steve seeing Our fandom McDanno Steve and seeing him and his Danno be gloriously happy. They have Grace and Eddie, but also Charlie. But rather than being Danny’s and Rachel’s, both Steve and Danny donated their sperm and hired a surrogate which turned out to be Lynn, and they’re still friends with her and her wife Melissa(I will ship them as hard as I ship McDanno!) And they love having a family so much, Steve sees himself as what he would be like as a dad and he’s good and he’s happy and apparently they’re having another kid! He’s around to help babyproof the house and set up the nursery, he sees all of the family pictures and hears about bringing baby Charlie home and first Christmases and birthdays...first Halloween where they let Max choose Charlie’s first costume and it was John Wick. 

And Steve craved it...he loved it and he was jealous of himself and god all the wasted time! He asked the other Steve how he knew...when he knew...and if he was scared. 

The other Steve told him that at first he didn’t really know. Danny somehow in a blink of an eye, just became crucial in every part of his life...that one day it was just impossible to even consider his life without him. Within half a year was when he knew, thanks to Kono, Mary, and his Aunt Deb that the way he looked at Danny was what many wished their partners looked at them...the assurance of true love. And was he scared? Hell yeah. He was scared he wasn’t worth it...Danny was amazing, and so was Grace...but he loved them, and they loved him. Accepting the truth that was already there took some time but once it was...it was the most honest truth there was. The day Danny accepted being his boyfriend was one of the best day’s in Steve’s life...he never questioned his worth or his ability to love or his place in the world...he knew where his world was. And he knew who his heart belongs to...And he thought love was finite and that Danny and Grace were it...but then Charlie and Eddie came along...and now their next child, and not their last, who knows...plus 5-0...for all the loneliness and uncertainty he had as a teenager, the world was paying him back in spades. 

Married Steve tells unmarried Steve that it’s never too late...and to go for it..that he won’t regret it. 

Now someone write this. Lol but seriously if you like this idea and you feel inspired, either with fanfic, fan art, gifs...if you wanna tackle it, go for it. You have my blessing, just let me know when it’s done cos I wanna see it x3

002 panch/gladstone (i was reading one of their threads this morning huhuhu) 

- ✩ { @musetothemusic​​ } ✩

✩ { Meme​ } ✩

002 | send me a ship and i will tell you:

When I started shipping them: Ironically, it was after I heard the song ‘In Love With You - First Date the Musical’ XD I loved the dynamic of the song, and out of all my muses it gave me Panchito vibes... and Gladdy was soon to follow. It was literally a random stroke of inspiration where the Muse(s) took the reigns. :’D It actually started as a bad-‘breakup’/‘hate’-ship of sorts, but the muses took over and showed that they actually go together really well... Like- surprisingly so, tbh. XD 

My thoughts: I never once thought about this ship until that moment and I am SO GLAD that I took a shot by bringing it up instead of suffering in silence because it’s developed into one of my Fave feelsiest and angstiest ships. X3 Their personalities, world views, and lifestyles mesh together remarkably well... but have enough (drastically) contrasting traits to provide a lot of Interesting Drama and conflict too. Which is AMAZING ‘cause I’m all about those Ups and Downs. :3c 

What makes me happy about them: I love how their relationship is such an interwoven dynamic of Buddies and Lovers. They genuinely care about each other and can be Soft as Hell, but they also spur on each other’s dumbassery and joke around SO MUCH. They bring out each other’s competitiveness, goofiness, vulnerability, and just... Look- I am weak for partners who are also Best Friends. ESPECIALLY when they are on the level that someone could look at them one moment and just see two dudes fucking around, and then hours later Panch and Glad literally are fucking around. lol XD They naturally mesh together So Fucking Well. 

What makes me sad about them: The fact that while they do mesh together well, those differences are SO STARK and important, it has a tendency to blow up in their faces. Hell, even their similarities can cause problems. Like their stubbornness, tendency to bottle things up, ‘pride’, etc... Bascially, their relationship is as ‘lively’ as they are, and while I adore the drama, these bois DO go through a lot of shit because of it. Since the very beginning, and it just seems to Keep On Coming. :’3 

Things done in fanfic that annoys me: I’ve never searched for Gladchito— yep :’D —fanfic before and tbh I doubt that I would find any. XD But I’d probably have an issue with them being ‘OOC’ and likely watered-down, shallow versions of Them. 

Things I look for in fanfic: ...... I’d look for some genuine characterization and masterful storytelling. *cough*smut*cough*

My wishlist: Past!Threads... before ‘The Weekend’. When they were first getting to know each other, some of the shit they pulled in college (annoying the Hell out of poor Don, Della, José... or anyone on earth XD ) When they were Good Friends, having convos about their sexuality and how they view relationships, etc... That Good Lore. lol What about threads that take place DURING the weekend? Getting to see when Panch started Developing Feels and the internal struggle. THE FUCKING FALLING OUT BETWEEN THEM. - I’m also weak for AUs, and wouldn’t mind something along those lines too. Any would be cool tbh: Western!AU, Soulmate!AU, Royal!AU, etc... 

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Panchito/Falcon is also a fave... and Panch/Mark, Panch/Drake. Glad/Mark is an interesting dynamic that I enjoy seeing, and my Glad is HELLA into Gyro. A ship I fuckin’ L O V E. X3 

My happily ever after for them: Them helping and supporting each other through all of their emotional baggage, growing comfortable and content and SECURE in their relationship... Pretty much being ‘married’ without the legality. lol

[kurt-nightcrawler]

i’ve read a lot of people saying the didn’t like how focused the x men movies were on wolverine what’s your opinion on that?

Obviously, I’m no professional. I don’t know everything about the X-Men, but I have watched the movies and know quite a bit about them. (I need to read more comics lol) these are just my opinions, please don’t get upset over them.

—

Strap in lads we have a lot to discuss

Now, obviously wolverine is important to the xmen. and hugh jackman did a very good job playing wolverine and going through all the training and body conditioning even as he got older, so kudos to him for that. ANYWAY lemme spill tea

Love triangles?

The xmen movies are notorious for love triangles— specifically the Scott x Jean x Logan one. Obviously there’s sexual tension between them all in the comics, but that really doesn’t have to mean anything. One big reason why the last stand was so,,,, yikes... is because of said love triangle.

Sure X3 isn’t great, but if they dropped the love triangle I’m sure hey could have spun some bullshit around and made the film a bit better.

The solo movies—

Origins: what. The. Fuck.

That movie was too, a mess. Which sucks ass, because if it actually did well, there would probably had been more origin movies about other characters! (Victor and Logan, brothers???¿¿ was that a fever dream????¿ did I miss something¿?)(Did you know the script got changed so much that for some scenes the actors wouldn’t get the ‘official script’ until the night before/day of shooting said scene? yeah, hot mess) and I know this movie was made bc the whole point of Logan in the movies was “I don’t know my past! Help me find it chuck!” But idk. It was the motivator that got Logan to do stuff and stick around the xmen but they didn’t have to really hyperfixiate on it.

Wolverine 2–

Better than origins, but honestly? I thought it was meh. I watched it and I just couldn’t get through it, so I never finished it. I thought it was meh.

Logan—

Holy grail, I know, I know. It was good, heart wrenching, and pretty creative. Best out of the three solo movies.

Overall, I feel like the regular xmen movies were a tad Logan centered.

Obviously, fox saw how good/popular hugh jackman was at wolverine and they wanted to gain profit from that, that’s what any big company would have done. But also, there’s a difference between using something a lot and milking the cow until it’s dead

The new xmen trilogy cameos were dumb. There, I said it. They were dumb. Days of future past was creative and gave Logan a purpose and it was a decent movie, but we are talking about first class and apocalypse.

There was no point to have the scene where charles and erik track logan down and try to get him to join the team, only to get blown off. He wasn’t the first person they went to, and when they’d go to someone and were faced with hesitation or disinterest in the xmen, they’d still manage to convince them to join. With logan, they just left. He was like “Fuck you” and they just walked out. ??? This didn’t do anything. It didn’t add to the plot, and it wasn’t funny. I mean sure, at first it was kinda cool like, “oh! wolverine! The glue holding the xmcu together!” But looking back on it, the reason he held the xmcu together was because fox spun him that way. He didn’t need to hold the franchise together, the xmen has thousands of diverse, powerful, interesting characters— a lot which aren’t even in the movies and cartoons— to the point where if done correctly, you don’t need just one person carrying the load.

Also the xmen apocalypse cameo was stupid. I know it was supposed to like, show how the “timeline” changed since dofp, but it didn’t really do anything and most people I know are always like “I was so confused as to why he was there” and even after me explaining it they still don’t really get it. Again, they didn’t the wolverine cameo. Sure, this time he added a bit more to the plot— killing all the guards for Scott, Jean and Kurt— But they could have done something themselves without fox having to get hugh. Also the “bonding moment” where Jean “freed a piece of his mind” and Logan escaped into the snow? 1) made me hella uncomfortable because the situation had high sexual tension, and Jean is supposed to be 16-18 in xmen apocalypse. Logan is ??? (He’s like 200 years old? But he looks 45 ish so that’s still not great when having a moment with a minor/barely legal person) also Scott was right there which makes me go back to my original point about the love triangle— it’s dumb and unnecessary.

Overall, Logan’s character obviously added a lot to the xmcu— good and bad— and he will be remembered for a long time, but there were also other characters the light could have shined on for even a second, and would have been just as, if not, more interesting. If fox didn’t act like they could only use Logan, they could have had a lot more success and maybe, just maybe, not sold out to Disney.

But those are just my thoughts, what do I know? ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯
