(Reupload bc a whole 20 hours later and no notes?? Is it that bad)
Anyways, 2nd ons oc yippeee
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lore utc yea
So this time our story starts in 80s japan! Where, for lack of a better word, a very average girl was born. Or is she average? Well,,,,,
Anyways, Yua had a normal upbringing. Two loving parents with stable jobs, rich overseas relatives that spoiled her rotten whenever possible (ok that's not that normal but whatevs) and a few friends in school.
Things changed when in her last year of middle school her parents announced that they were moving to their relatives overseas. Yua did not want that. At all. While she tried to convince them, the move has already been planned and plane tickets were about to be purchased.
Two days later, in a moment of intrusive compulsion, Yua pushed her father down the stairs. It was supposed to be just a little push, maybe to sprain his ankle and to delay the move but as fate would have it, her father almost died in that fall. Her mother, obviously horrified, declared then and there that Yua wasn't her daughter anymore. Her father ended up in a nursing home due to lasting damages after the fall and her mother moved and left Yua alone.
Yua's living expenses were afterwards payed for by her overseas family and she could stay in Japan.
Come high school, Yua was once again a normal student who happened to live alone, the accident having been buried and chalked up to an unlucky slip. She was decently popular thanks to her good grades and outgoing attitude but somehow never made any lasting friendships. Except that one time...
Yua noticed a rather peculiar classmate of hers. He had ginger hair, always wore a hood and barley ever spoke to anyone. If he spoke he was generally rude, wasn't in any club, every break he'd disappear onto the rooftop and bolted straight home at the end of each day. He never did any homework or participated in projects but still passed each class. She was intruiged. How could such an asshole exist?
To investigate, she examined every nook and cranny of the rooftop and stumbled upon the tight space between the back of the little building door thing that leads up to the rooftop and the fence which was the ginger's hiding spot. She tried to strike up conversation until the guy had enough and rudely told her off. "You're better off not talking to me. I'm always alone for a reason." Oh great, he's fucking emo. Though this didn't dissuade Yua, if anything she was determined to get this guy to talk to her. As a fun experiment.
A few months of constant perstering later, she finally got his first name (because just looking at the class list would have been too easy). Literally Mistake. No wonder he's like that.
Almost half a year later, Yua got Machigai to open up a little and the two hit it off. They ended up very close friends, some even assumed they were dating (they're both gay so they just found it funny).
At the end of high school, Yua was terrified. Terrified of losing the one friend she had, terrified of all the change that was inevitablely going to occur. Her fear got even worse when Machigai straight up disappeared after graduation. She didn't know what to do. She hasn't applied to any colleges, she hasn't thought about her future at all.
In a slight crisis, she visited her relatives overseas, maybe make amends with her mother. Unfortunately, her mother was unwilling to see her, believing her to be a ruthless monster. Yua continued to travel around for a bit, in a desperate attempt to figure out her future. When she returned to japan, she was just as lost as when she left.
A few years and multiple jobs later, she accidentally stumbled upon Japan's undergroung magic government (or something like that, I only skimmed cat16 lol) and it suddenly hit her. She doesn't have to accept change or make rash decisions about her future if she's immortal, right? Plus this way she might be able to seek out her old friend again (because there is no way that guy is just a normal human).
Some convoluted shenanigans later she struck a deal with the Hiiragi family. She would offer herself up to be experimented on for the development of cursed gear (they were working on that right) for a chance at immortality (except she just gave some vague reasoning on what she wants lol). And once again, as fate would have it, she would get her wish fulfilled in probably the worst way possible.
One of the demons up for grabs (lol) was one nobody was really sure of how it got there or how it precisely worked. It was a set of 6 rings and it was supposed to be a very furios demon, as it possessed and killed anyone who tried beforehand.
Yua took the gamble and she was greated by a... kid? The demon had the form of a human, probably around 11 years old. "Hello, human. Lemme just...", before Yua could react, the demon had already pierced her heart and looked inside.
"So you want immortality? Wow, super original. Scared of change? Boring! Oh well, you do have some amazing greed so I'll consider it. Tell me, what will you give me in return?"
"Huh?"
"hUh? I was crystal clear. But since you're stupid, I guess I'll give you a hint: Your desires and greed alone aren't enough to satiate me if you want to be immortal. You have to give me another thing for that to happen"
"...like what?"
"Ugh, isn't it obvious?! Your sanity, your emotions, your eyesight! Anything goes!"
"Then... what about my tears?"
"Tears? Oh like your abilty to cry... that should work. So deal?"
"What would happen to me if I accept?"
"How should I know?! You'll just have to wait and see! So are you up to it? If you say no you're dead anyways."
"Fine. I accept."
And thus, Yua's new life began. The demons powers granted her some sort of razor sharp physics-defying, almost spider web like, string that would become uneffective against anyone wearing one of the rings allowing for a more supportive use. She spent god knows how long training with and without the rings (that's how she got those scars) and any time not spent training was spent studying magic n shit. She became highly proficient in spells and yeah. (Muh brains dead rn i'm sorry)
As for the no tears thing... it's not great. Her eyes still self-lubricate to get debris and whatnot out of there if needed, but no tears for anything else. But to still process intense emotions, Yua has different reactions. If she's sad/angry/[other negative emotion] she feels physically ill. Sometimes to the point of having to throw up. If she's very very happy/relieved, it makes her unable to stand still. So in order to avoid the more negative effects, she learnt to surpress most if not all negative emotions, at least to the point where she doesn't feel ill anymore. Unfortunately, this led to all her emotions getting dampened which leads to her coming off a insensitive sometimes. She also often forces a more positive emotion out of negative ones or straight up ignores them to avoid feeling ill.
Fast forward to the apocalypse and Yua was promptly put into the JIDA. During the first-ish years she was often sent out to rescue people and to help train up soldiers. During this time she rescued and pseudo adopted a boy who miraculously survived the initial catastrophe (he is the 3rd major oc. I lied her and his demons are also more fleshed out but ahem anyways more on the lil guy later).
During all this she was still determined to meet Machigai again, if possible. She went digging in the army's archives and lo and behold, she found the ginger. In the documents he was classified as M.I.A., namley kidnapped and held captive by vampires. Yua brought this up with the top brass and they allowed her to conduct a search and rescue mission for Machigai since the JIDA realized he'd be a useful asset. Except she had to do it alone.
So Yua yolo'd into vampire teritory up until Nagoya, making sure to draw enough attention to herself without getting caught.
The sudden disappearance of soldiers was obviously enough to draw the attention of the ruling vampires in Nagoya, namley Crowley Eusford. At the mention of "a woman with long dark hair" Machigai uncharacteristically volunteered to take care of the disturbance. While it was highly unlikley that it really was his friend from over ten years ago, he wanted to at least make sure it's not really her.
Aaaand they meet again. Dramatic reunion ensues. Machigai is so confused and shocked and Yua couldn't be more relieved at the sight of Machigai in that uniform. She gave a very simplified version of how tf she looks that young and is still alive while Machigai also fessed up about what is up with him.
Machigai broke down a little and pleaded with Yua to run away with him and to leave everything behind. Unfortunatley she couldn't agree but she promised to visit again, consequences be damned.
Yua stuck around the area for a little more to hopefully lure out the big fish himself. Crowley did show up (for reasons that I'll expand on later adnwgjnhr) and in Yua offered her deal (see doodle page): Crowley let's her, yk, live and in return she gives him some key information about the ginger enigma (Machigai). Crowley accepts (reason will be explained later. again. I'm sorry) and Yua gets to live. Hurray!
Once she gets back to the JIDA base, her 'treason' gets exposed and she is thrown into jail! Except she manipulates her way out of severe consequences and the lil guy she helped vouches for better treatment.
Yua keeps her promise to Machigai and a few weeks later she shows up in Nagoya again! Except this time in her fresh new outfit (it's literally the demon army uniform without the coat and like, 10% more sexy. slay.).
Some shenanigans later and she is now a frequent guest at Nagoya City Hall and everyone just kinda got used to her, especially since she often brings some juicy intel with her (and snacks for Machigai). Hell, even Ferid got aquianted with her and let her be because she's fun.
I honestly don't knew where to put this but anyways, Yua develops a massive crush on Horn. Yea

This is a rambling thought so apologies in advance if it starts a shitkicking war in the notes.
Do you think ine of the reasons that more left leaning people tend to be less favourable on gun rights is because of the core of where the rights come from, in principle?
Like... healthcare, abortion, housing, etc. All (at least to me) boil down to bodily autonomy. Without the right to bodily autonomy you lose rights to these things, and you can't have tru autonomy without those things.
But guns... that's not true. Yes you CAN use guns to defend yourself, but you don't have to.
Like, in my head, the right to bear arms is kind of like if you insisted on the right to a 3 bedroom single family home. It's too specific. A right to shelter might include 3 bedroom homes, but doesn't guarantee it. Same thing with guns.
Does that make any sense?
TLDR; You're missing some aspects, but you're mis-identifying "left-wing" and "liberal".
_____________________________________________
It makes sense, and I can se the logic, but there are 2 things to consider.
"You go far enough Left and you get your guns back."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The people most consistently anti-gun are left-leaning Liberals. When you start getting to pro-gun leftist you're starting to approach people who are leftist even on the international stage. Not all leftists are pro-guns, but the belief in/respect for gun ownership starts increasing.
2. What you're saying makes sense, but you're touching on a few different things.
2a. the difference in the specificity largely comes from the promise of "guns = physical safety." We are going to sidestep the assholes who say that disingenuously for now. If you are a liberal and in the US and you fully believe in the inherent Goodness of the people, the systems, etc. then you are more likely to view guns as unnecessary for individual safety because you have Police, and the Rule of Law, etc. supporting your safety, and if there's ever a systemic need for you to fight then surely it'll be a draft or something, which isn't in the conversation.
Obviously, if you lose faith in the systems, or view the systems as inherently corrupt, bigoted, etc. you lose faith in the theoretical equal protections offered. It doesn't fully mean if you don't believe in the cops you'll go get an long rifle, but you're certainly less resistant to the idea.
2b. A lot of the left-wing or Liberal gun control measures tend to not be about principles but about practicality. So the Bodily Autonomy thing doesn't particularly factor into it.
For example:
It is, objectively, a fact that people with domestic abuse records are massively more likely to enact violence (and hence gun violence) on people around them, so it becomes a balancing act between that person's right to a gun (and what that means/is valued) vs. the foreseeable outcome that they're going to escalate their violent behavior to shoot somebody.
You'll see this in a lot of the rebuttals of right-wing gun framing, where the theoretical value of the gun isn't dismissed, but rather debunked in how people use it.
"You don't need it for safety"/"you're in more danger if you have a gun"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
or when gun advocates/republicans say "the 2nd amendment protects the others" the response (rightly) is "When have you ever cared about the others?"
2c (bonus). Right-wing gun ownership has been celebrated in the US for decades now, and left-wing gun ownership has been the cause for entire political movements to be repressed, jailed, and killed/fire-bombed in the US. Part of the discrepancy you're observing is the natural result of Leftisists with Guns being called Terrorists and Right-Wingers with Guns being called Patriots.

Jurassic Dead (2017) Review
Tumblr media
Jurassic Dead
So this movie was one that I bought on a whim. I was at a used CD and DVD place with my dad, and bought this while on vacation. I spent $4.00 and I regret nothing.
A couple nights ago, I watched this movie with @shxxtteredfantasy. This movie.. It was entertaining to say the least. And yes as the polls said, I am going full spoilers with this review because I am pretty sure none of you will watch this.
So the film begins with this professor dude. He's getting this secret green formula that brings dead thing back to life. The guy who gives him said formula is threatening to kill him. The professor guy injects a dinosaur and the dinosaur kills everyone at the scene, but the professor guy.
Skip to one year later, the professor guy is teaching his class about reanimation, and injects a dead cat, with the green formula. This scene bothered me because he said "You need a lot for it to work" HE USED LESS WHEN BRINGING BACK A FRICKEN DINOSAUR... Also where's the dinosaur during this?? Who knows... Well because of this professor being Frankenstein levels of insane, he gets fired, vows to get his revenge, and then gets hit by a truck...
Some time later we meet two groups of characters
the Black ops in which we have Duque (who looks like Duke Nukem... and yes they reference this), Stick, the only person of color in the film and one of the few who survive, some asshole guy with a bandana, and a badass token lady character who... I don't think had one line of dialogue.. At least none that I can remember... oh and one guy that dies in the very begining
The second group we have a stereotypical blonde.. (like so stereotypically stupid I'm surprised she didn't need to be reminded to breathe, by the characters.), a stereotypical jock...( who has a gun for some reason... and brings up the 2nd amendment for some reason when he's asked why he as one...), a nerdy girl playing Game Boy, and a nerdy guy doing weed.
After a meteor causes all the electricity in the area to stop. (phones, cars, gameboy, etc) the gang of high schoolers find themselves in a weird science facility. The same facility that the black ops people are investigating. The facility soon fills with green smoke, one of the black ops guys who had separated from his crew, breathes in the smoke and becomes zombie.
The high schoolers and the Black ops team soon run into each other, and the douche in the bandana (whom a couple scenes ago pointed a gun at them while they were driving, confiscated the nerd girl's and guy's weed.
A TV then comes on. It turns out the professor guy who got hit with a truck is not dead. He is wearing a cloak because he is evil, and a gas mask.. and he sounds like grocery store Darth Vader. He then announces his very evil plan to turn off all the electricity in every major city, and then turn everyone into Zombies. He then of course, announces that no one in the facility is going to survive and releases his dinosaur to kill him.
Duque walks right over to the dinosaur and decks him in the face. The dinosaur is then presumed dead and they walk away. However, of course, the dinosaur is not dead! Now it wants revenge on Duque and the crew!
The groups have now split up for some reason.. It's the jock guy with the bandana guy. The Bandana guy gives the jock some beanie weenies, and then starts smoking weed and talking about chemtrails and other conspiracy theories, but their time of smoking weed and enjoying beanie weenies is cut short as the dinosaur grabs the jock guy. Instead of doing anything to help, Bandana guy books it,
Bandana guy regroups with the rest of the crew. However, the Jock guy is dead, but not completely. he is now a zombie. He arrives at the scene and says to the blonde (his girlfriend) "I love you." The blonde then runs over to hug him, despite him being a zombie. Duque however is on the scene and shoots him before he can bite/ kill her, but not before getting bit himself. The blonde is hysterical, crying about her boyfriend being murdered, despite him being a zombie, and while Stick is trying to convince her that she needs to get going.. The Blonde stupidly does not leave, and then gets eaten by the dinosaur that has shown up yet again.
The crew have two missions now, to stop the villain's evil plot, and get out alive, but.. when ya gotta go, ya gotta go. The nerd girl went quickly, not wanting to take her time while there's zombies on the loose, however, the nerd boy criticizes her on her bathroom hygiene. He then goes to the bathroom, presumably number 2, because he's taking forever... However, Duque isn't doing so hot... While in the stall, he becomes a zombie..
The bandana guy is also using the bathroom, and says that he's suffering from a case of the bubble guys. He then does some more weed... As he's doing his business, Zombie Duque opens the stall and starts strangling bandana man. The nerd guy during all of this... just stays in the stall, instead of doing the logical thing of leaving. Bandana man tries to get his gun out, but accidentally shoots the nerd guy right in the head.
Okay okay what next
Assassin lady kills the now zombie bandana man, the nerd girl somehow knows code and hacks into the system, but the system has a safeguard and now the facility is about to blow up.
The professor realizes he has to leave, but then the dinosaur shows up and eats him.
The remaining crew find a military vehicle equipped with a turret, they kill Zombie Duque and the dinosaur with it. They then escape the facility by somehow crashing the military vehicle through the wall and escaping, but it's too late, the villain won, and all the characters are zombies... but sentient... and they adopted the dinosaurs head as their pet.. They then drive off into the desert sunset.... The end..
This movie was a nonsensical mess, but... I love these type of movies. I was never bored. All in all I give it 6.5/10

Hey Walter, have you read the 2nd Amendment? You know the one sentence, 27 words divided by three commas? I just want to make sure you and I are talking about the same 2nd Amendment. Because I don't remember a reference in it to; 2A being voided by a Federal Standing Army or the states having direct control over the National Guard. That 2A only applies to hunting or any other "family tradition". The 2nd Amendment is about personal security, against any threat, beit from the government or from some asshole robbing you at the gas station. It is all encompassing. Like so many who want to to twist 2A into something that fits your liking maybe understand that it is fixed in its 27 words and that you need to adjust to your "understanding" of what the Right is and how it is applied.
I'd also point out that not one word in your entire drible addresses criminals or how to stop them, just how to criminalize law abiding citizens. That has always been the left's problem, and they just can't seem to see that. Last thing. The 2nd Amendment is the only Right in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution as a whole to have "shall not be infringed" in it. That is a powerful statement by the Founding Fathers.

If you live in the US and have the ability to, buy a gun. Arm yourself. Buy one from a sport’s store. You can take classes at a range fairly easily. If you have mobility issues: dm me, I can show you firearms specifically made for people with mobility issues! I can show you the mobility aids too! I’m not talking like a rifle or anything serious. Anything to arm yourself.
I used to be against firearms. I lost a friend to gun violence. I teach in a school. There’s been three threats of violence to my school already this year. I understand the fear behind them. I also know that the US is heading down a fucking sinkhole for anyone who is a minority. The 2nd amendment wasn’t intended to protect assholes with military-grade sniper rifles. It was meant to protect me, and you, and our siblings.
I’m not going down without a fight, I won’t be another statistic, another victim of transphobia. Not to be on my soapbox but ignore the fucking trope of the trigger happy american. There’s no way in hell we can disarm the police in my lifetime. It’s not a fair fight, me owning a firearm levels the playing field. The only reason they haven’t killed us all yet is because some of us can fight back. I don’t like owning a gun. I hope one day I can lock it up and never look at it again. I never want to use it. But until I can safely be myself without fear of harm, it’ll do what it must to keep me safe.

"A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
...You guys know that the reason the 2nd Amendment says that is because at the time the nascent federal government was massively in debt from war bonds, like they literally had negative money? They couldn't afford to buy equipment for any soldiers or anything.
"You get to keep your guns because if we get attacked by England again immediately, you need to bring that goddamn gun and SAVE ME, OH GOD, THEY'RE BURNING THE CAPITOL -- !"
Every hillbilly in America screaming that the 2nd Amendment was invented so that every hillbilly can stop Communism...?
Assholes, why would the people who are writing the thing CREATING A GOVERNMENT put in a part where you are allowed to shoot at it if you feel like it?
You are only allowed to have guns, specifically to PROTECT THE GOVERNMENT.
It's not fer it, it's agin' it!
