There is something so special about District 11. The love, and loyalty. The kindness passed on to other tributes. They are my Roman empire.

Reddening a moose bone ring to aid in facilitating congress with The Land. As far as I’m aware moose aren’t especially sacred to the tribes here nor could I find any stories where they played a significant role. Tho please do correct me if I’m wrong!

EDIT: there’s a rather funny folk story here regarding “Specter Moose”. Couldn’t help but think of it during the process haha.

headcannon michael was a tinkerer in general, but more so understress (hence Helpy, PanManStan, #1 Crate, Mr.Hugs, ect) so whenever Glamfreddy's circuts are a bit overworked he'll go to his greenroom and just start building stuff lol

#fnaf #michael afton #five nights at freddy’s #glammike #glamrock freddy #Hes just like his dad fr #hes self aware of that fact so much so where he'll just sigh as hes welding circut boards together lol #imagine the pizza sim era for michael oml 😭😭😭 mans was at his LOWEST #just this rotting corpse of a wet cat rocking back and fourth in his ventilation hidey hole screwdriving Helpy #All while spiraling a bit further because “oopsies! I created something in the likeness of my father's creation!” #its okay helpy brings him positive vibes in the future (trust scott told me so) #It would be funny if helpy just watched Michael glue together a bucket on a stick and go: #“yerp. thats him. thats the genius who invented me” and he'll watch in awe at Michael's craft #you know what screw it maybe Lizzy and CC ask michael requests #anyways I find the image of Helpy giving a tour of Michael's pizzaria and the man himself in a corner just muttering to himself things #and helpy just points and goes "Dont mind him #he's in his natural enviornment. My scanners say hes thriving

I know some people were caught off guard by Q!Cellbit's big reveal, but just a friendly reminder that he's not the only genius among the Brazilians, those guys ar ALL incredibly smart, it just doesn't seem like it because they're also huge dumbasses (affectionate).

QSMP spoilers below (tho they're more my reading of events than 100% facts and I'm really biased)

Forever knows Cellbit's whole federation loving bullshit is a con, he knew from day one, he can't prove it, but he mentioned it as a likely possibility multiple times, he's not mad at Cellbit for joining the federation, he's mad at Cellbit because he's being a jerk about it and threatening to change Richarlyson's custody agreement, he knows it's a con, but he's smart enough to be prepared for the off chance it isn't, and even when the truth gets revealed it doesn't mean all the hurtful things Cellbit said will be forgiven.

I'll be honest I don't watch Tazercraft that often, but on the first five minutes I tapped into their streams I heard Mike saying that this all must be a plan, them and Cellbit go way back, and while part of it might be wishful thinking they know this is not Cellbit the conspiracy maniac who was completely against the federation, they know there must be something else there, they considered the possibility of him going crazy, but they're also considering the idea of it all being planned.

Cellbit thinks he fooled everyone, but his friends saw through him almost immediately, they're pissed at him not because of the betrayal, but because he's being a jerk, they don't trust him enough to be certain of the whole infiltration plan, they're definitely wary of him, but it's less because they think he's a threat and more because they're afraid that whatever plan he has might backfire badly and he decided to bet on too high stakes in line without letting anyone else in.

#qsmp #qsmp spoilers #Anyways this is not a 100% serious analysis it's just me rambling about my little dumbasses #because I'm a bit tired of seeing my boys being treated as if they're 100% unaware of things happening around them #Like Forever is a genius of networking he gets people he's Smart and resourceful #he's as crazy as Cellbit but he knows that allies are a strength not a weakness #and Tazer and Craft (calling Pac and Mike that is the most genius thing) are literal scientists boys are smart #and they're not as unaware as people make them to be they're a bit aloof but they know what's going on #Also why are people acting as if they don't know about the custody fight? #Forever told basically Everyone and they were the first ones to know about it #Was it retconned or do people just not watch Forever and Tazer? #Also I don't talk about Felps on this but my boy is still the ghost haunting the narrative #his absence speaks for itself it's the hole that makes everything start to fall apart if he was there none of this would happen

#columbo #season 6 #old fashioned murder #columbo is a genius for driving a scrunched up soda can #carefully crafted related choices aside it's so liberating to drive a beater and he knows it #dent? who cares. scratch? who cares. crash? you guessed it #columbo earns the current year equivalent of like 70k a year and is frugal so he could definitely afford a beautiful sparkling ride #he just knows how awesome it is to be able to crash his car and just not give a shit

Subjectivity of "Experience"

An interesting bit of Grian being an unreliable narrator in Firewatch AU is how he's constantly talking about how Mumbo would never have made any mistakes, because he knows better, because he's experienced.

But honestly, how experienced WAS Mumbo? Because I'm pretty sure that Grian states that he and Mumbo didn't start hiking or backpacking until they came to Colorado. (If that wasn't in the fic, then I apologize, but it's definitely in my notes and my intentions in writing it.) Before that, they'd grown up their entire lives in an urban environment. So that means at maximum, they each only have two years of experience as backpackers, since they'd only been in the state for two years.

I'm not saying it's impossible to become experienced in two years. But I think it's comparatively not very much time in this kind of sport. I think it's likely they were doing more casual outings or weekend outings in good-weather seasons/days. In the first scene of chapter one, when Mumbo wants to go camping, Grian automatically assumes he means on the weekend and gets annoyed about the suggestion he should take off work. So...I think it's likely that while they enjoyed it as a new hobby, they probably weren't exceptionally experienced yet. Like, I don't think they were doing super technical hikes and wilderness survival stuff on the regular, you know what I mean? They're both city-dwellers who work office jobs who only moved there two years ago.

Now you've also got to pair it with another key factor, which is that Grian states TWICE in the story that he didn't know how to navigate or wayfind very well until after Mumbo went missing. He says that the trails they used to go on that were close to Denver had always been fairly popular and he didn't worry about getting lost on well-marked trails. He didn't worry much about maps before. As you can see in this article, navigating accurately with a map and compass isn't dead simple. You have to take bearings of landmarks and learn how to adjust for the natural declination between magnetic north and true north. A lot of Grian's outdoor knowledge in the fic is things he learned or improved at after Mumbo disappeared, as part of his effort to find Mumbo.

So my question is just kind of...are we to assume Mumbo was that much MORE experienced than Grian? When we know they bought all their gear together at the same time and always did the activities as a pair? Isn't it much more likely they had similar skillsets?

Which indicates that, well, maybe Mumbo wasn't all that great at maps either :/

This is a long rambly way of saying that Grian's constant insistence that Mumbo was experienced and knew all the rules and wouldn't have ever done anything wrong isn't just him being in denial, it's also just a straight up misperception of Mumbo's skills in the first place.

#hc_firewatch_au #i'm supposed to be editing my story and doing the annotated version for my mom and i'm out here writing meta again lol #this is a detail i have long known and crafted the story around though #something something amateur effect of not knowing how much you don't know and being over confident about it #something something about looking into the past with rose colored glasses & always wanting your friend to be the perfect genius he could be

Guess what!

I'm sick and that was one of the few yet random creative things I could do while still resting in bed. So here we go, I started making Jack's evil team club jacket! XD

I've seen this going on for a while, and I have to say something, so... genuine question. why do people that write OC x CC feel like they should turn it in a CC x reader? I come from a fandom that thrived off OCs so maybe that's why I can't understand it. I also don't read CC x reader, so there's that too. but genuinely, it feels like this very prominent dislike for OCs has pushed writers in that direction against their complete will (I mean, that's my impression. Perhaps they do like putting the reader in their OC's shoes). and I get a bit sad, because your OC's story is... Your OC's story. That's what it makes it special. No one can fit that role better than them. I want to know more about this silly character you decided to put in that universe, and I cannot do that if it's a "x you" thing.

#I could never imagine changing my OC x CC fics in x readers because I spent hours crafting their whole lore and personality #I'm also very protective over them like... you can empathise with them but you don't need to replace them #I guess my hatred for this stems also from this new trend of people thinking that 1st person pov is them in the story #wild thing to say but yes. So common for people to hate on 1st person pov because ''that's not me. I would never do that'' #yeah fucking genius. 1st person pov is not you. #so any negative comments for 1st person pov could easily be said to 2nd person pov based on an OC & I don't want writers to get those #tl;dr: own your shit. own your OC's story. #btw I'm saying this with the sweetest tone to OCs creators. I love you & never stop #d.exe

"Well look what the cat dragged in." Or rather snake. Sasori wasn't expecting to see the white scales of his ex partner anytime soon. Then again, this was Orochimaru. Fucker had his methods of finding things out. "Now what's got someone like you coming to visit lil old me, aye?" There's a dangerous smile on the once-immortal beings face, watching the other closely.

honestly the ambiguity of whether the Web-aligned tapes pulled Jon out of The Buried or if the act of Martin leaving them was actually what did it is so important to the ending in retrospect. what do you believe in? love or fear? did their love take Jon and Martin Somewhere Else, or were their feelings just a means to an end? A way of getting the job done?

#sooo fascinating #maybe in the context of the tapes are the web we could also look at the instances of tape recorders are web aligned just like we do with #the presence or mentions of spiders in canon #like there's this example and then there's obviously recollection #but theres also a fucking tape when jon wakes up #obviously oliver's statement too but that was canonically delivered by the web #then the tape in jons backpack that makes daisy mad at him #WAIT WHAT THE FUCK I NEVER REALIZED THIS??? #the tape is literally what sets her off leading to jon bein marked damn #jon and georgie and the lighter in the tunnels #christ i fucking love how genius jonny crafted his meta ass tape idea it's making my brain fold in on itself #tma #the magnus archives #tma season 5 spoilers #tma meta #the web #annabelle cane #jonathan sims #jarchivist #martin blackwood #jmart #jonmartin #tma vague

absolutely fascinating how it took matt bishop and aston martin less than one year to recognize seb as the mighty pr boosting machine that he is with both his personality/humour and his activism if you let him off the leash while ferrari didn't understand that in all the six years they had him for

#sebastian vettel #matt bishop is an absolute marketing genius like he is letting seb speak out and steers it into outlets useful for the team #while being super supportive and dependable #it's so fascinating like he truly is a master of his craft #a far cry from 'we cant be too funny considering our performance'

I am not joking when I say I genuinely think My Immortal has more artistic merit than any of the actual Harry Potter books.

#I mean if you subscribe to the most likely explanation that it's a trollfic #and that every single part of it was deliberately crafted that way on purpose #then it's legitimately a work of genius #the way it parodies an entire fan subculture at the time but always feels funny and not mean. #the way it literally pioneered an entire subgentre of similar fanfics and fanworks #it's truly irreplaceable. there's nothing else quite like it. nothing had quite done what it did to that level of success before #and it's impossible to recreate the same impact #you simply can't say the same for Harry Potter. there were other hugely successful works in the same genre both before and since

i love the different interpretations of what happens to physical bodies after revival. like with c!wilbur did he revive from the same bones? was the organic material recycled? did he have to dig his way out of rubble to be reuinited with the world? or did he appear right over where his bones still rest without a proper burial, forgotten by the people he thought would at least give him a funeral?

#i need to find that post i made that parker added really cool writing to #about cwilb burying his own bones when he was revived again #i LOVE that interpretation i think its absolutely bonkers genius #copies of physical bodies still existing upon revival is horrifying to think abt #in context of ctommy and his prison death. Scary #i think it makes most sense for bodies to be recycled to create the new ones #which is why i LOVEEEE the falling apart at the seams sort of zombie look for revived bitches #it's not that they're not Human. just that revival isn't a perfect process #especially from cdrm you cannot tell me that guy perfected that craft. he's not a god. he's mortal #so i think they'd be stitched together and recrafted a bit messy. y'know? #anyway. imagine getting revived and the first thing you see is your own rotting flesh and bones #i'd feel like a shadow of myself forever if that happened #personal
