#HALF truths though

[elizakai]

One thing I really want to see explored more when it comes to Nightmare’s character is the fact that he doesn’t lie.

Nightmare “never lies, only hides the truth.”

Nightmare being manipulative, twisting people’s words and disguising meanings is much more interesting than him simply lying to someone’s face and giggling about it later…

The amount of intentionality and intellect that goes into twisting the truth is, in my opinion, infinitely more intimidating.

#utmv #undertale #nightmare sans #dreamtale #ut au #sans aus #dreamtale nightmare sans #corrupted nightmare sans #he’s so interesting you guys #he’s such a little shit #let him be a shitty gremlin #but also he has standards💅 #lying is for losers #HALF truths though #are infinitely more petty #and nightmare is a diva drama queen #headcanons #or technically just a canon #whatever

The thing that gets me the most about intersexism is the fact that... it doesn't matter how many intersex people there are - no matter if they are as common as redheadheaded people or anybody else - when the intersexist sees human bodies and their states as a inherently a political battle, an agenda to be "won," the intersex body will always be an "anomaly," something crude and unnatural, regardless of how oxymoronic the "unnatural natural body" is.

#intersex #intersexism #intersexism tw #that's why the venn diagram between the transphobe and the intersexist is only ever a few degrees away from being just a circle #was watching how people treated an intersex woman indistinguishably with just... unparalleled misogyny and intersexism #because they see ALL bodies as a political battlefield for which their viewpoint must win. and it won't matter how many people it destroys. #...if you are destroyed by them - in the eyes of the intersexist - you deserved it. survival of the fittest right? #it reminds me of the salem with trials - if you drowned well you were a normal woman. it's better that you died though... #...your other option wasn't any better - truth is... the game was rigged from the start #this is why the argument that intersex people don't exist and are common isn't effective... #...it's like telling a sexist that half the population are women.... that's their problem! that's exactly their issue!!! #the issue is often not because they are common or not common but that they EXIST IN THE FIRST PLACE #it wouldn't matter if intersex people were twenty times as rare as they are now so long as they exist to the intersexist

i love love love the truth curse fic so much, especially how dipper twists it so that he can still irritate bill with it.

it does make me think though, there was one smut fic where it was mentioned that if bill could he would rip all of dippers fantasies out of his head and use them against him.

part of me wants bill to ask for even just one or two bedroom fantasies while dipper is forced to blab the truth just so bill can abuse the fuck out of whatever idea dipper comes up with

and part of me wants the curse fixed, everything back to normal and no more truth telling. with dipper and bill relaxing after everything, maybe even a few days pass. before bill just loudly and out of the blue shouts ‘FUCK!’ as he realized he missed a great opportunity and now its too late.

I can guarantee you that Bill has that 'FUCK' moment afterwards! Turns out that too many Shenanigans in the interim kind of interrupted his train of thought - and Dipper's a little too clever to be caught by ham-handed or distracted questions. Too bad, Bill; you didn't get to pick Dipper's brain nearly as much as you wanted.

#answers #Whether it was about sexy stuff or not Bill's definitely snapping his fingers and cursing at all the missed opportunities #Partly because he knows better than to piss Dipper off in certain ways. Partly because he didn't *think* to ask certain questions #He didn't get even half as much of the interrogations done as he would have liked #Really though he'd have a hard time weaseling them out once Dipper gets all the loopholes figured out #There's a very minor chance I could write something smutty with Dipper still under the truth curse #But frankly I have so much else i need to do that it's not really a priority #The curse of having too many WIPS is just as terrible as a truth one

I love how Dylan says his game of truth or dare is "no ifs ands or buts" and then they skip abi for taking too long, veto Jacob's dare, and do lame truths like it's the realistic truth or dare experience it's always hyped up and then it's like 2 exciting things

#the quarry #truth or dare #realism #the experience of truth or dare is saying it's extreme #and then not doing half of the shit anyways #thats probably a good thing though

personal little ref sheet for how i draw richie

#my art #hes like. the only character i have the most hyperspecific headcanons about #and im very particular about how he looks in my head #im half worried the kind of star motif in the scars is too much but i thought it kind of helped convey his sacrificial tendencies in a way #connecting them to being nova as opposed to a scar by random happenstance #and the face one is based on worldminds little infestations in the star shape that they had in the cv #i really want some kind of physical marking or scar to show wms absence #absolutely fucking rawdogging the armor. sorry #i do like heavier pieces than just his little golden boobie circles though #personally #also ginger rich truthing always and forever #thats all #richard rider #nova #marvel

"gets weirdly intense about houseplants" would definitely be in my bio if i were a character

#liz commented on my most recent fic #and reminded me i'm in a snit with my giant philo again #the girls are fighting #full respect to yt people and ig people who are like THIS IS HOW TO CARE FOR UR PLANTS #but my plants have unionised and at this point i am merely reacting to their whims #can and will kill every aloe i come into contact with #have accidentally kept 2 crotons and several monsteras alive for years #ficus hate being cold? my lil bitch is in the coldest room of my flat and throws a fit if i put her somewhere even slightly warmer #ferns are so easy to care for? dead. all of them dead. #string of x are so fussy!!! meanwhile i forget my turtles and hearts exist and they're Taking Over #alocasias are bastards though that's the truth i don't know what they want #anyway ignore me i'm yelling about plants #that's not even half of my collection rip 💀 #so it is decreed

[freepassbound]

95% sure I have just wasted two-and-a-half hours on a futile culinary effort. 😅😬

#and quite a lot of food #(though mostly disposable) #tried to make a chicken pot pie #it's cookie #moment of truth in under half-an-hour #(it's been cooking 20 minutes already) #I am *not* confident 😅 #free life #(what the hell am I going to eat if I'm right? 🤔)

[afaramir]

looks around. can i post this. its kind of the worst that i can’t seem to create a scenario where denethor riding into battle before minas tirith is like. possibly in character. i genuinely think he is Too Proud to not command only from the rear - in a way i wonder if he sees himself as too good for death on the battlefield. anyway thats a point for a different post it’s just such a shame because the image of him sat high on a great charger, dressed all in white and silver, a vision of a shining legend riding with wrath and ruin out of the west - to be so real to be so honest? it makes me so horny i cannot see straight

#.txt #ive gone back and forth on whether to post this like six times. #ive had Such A Day though. and its time for me to speak my truth #well this is a completely different vibe from the last post. i DID say they were all wildly different tones and topics #i like how i got distracted in the middle of the post by a brief moment of lucidity and tried to conduct real analysis for half a sentence #like Hang On A Moment I Had A Point.. ill do that later i guess. another one for the incessant stream of posts this week #denethorposting

brb gonna make this my pinned post

#tennis #i feel like it's the easiest way to know if my blog will be of any interest lol #i used 'always rooting for u' as a sort of catch-all 💀 #some of them i actively follow but don't really elevate myself to 'fan' level even though i do love them #some of them i am just always passively rooting for but don't necessarily go out of my way to watch #the beloved irrelevant flops could be expanded to include probably another half dozen players as well #btw leaving someone off of this doesn't mean i don't like them lol #by default i have a positive opinion of most players #but obviously that means i can't include all of them in the chart 😭 #so i had to be picky and tried to only include players i actually follow/have separate reasons for rooting for #hence why there are way fewer atp players on here because in truth i don't really watch the atp for the players that often #with the exception of the players above #i just watch for the tennis (which i do enjoy very much!) #but not generally as invested in the players themselves #anyway! blah blah blah i am rambling again

zephyr brain rot time qsmp fire emblem 3h au thing because the pla one made me Need to get my thoughts into order and talk about it - not really exactly basing them off of the characters in the game or a specific route just the vibes u gotta trust me . also forgive me stealing some skills and stuff from fates that aren’t in three houses because i want to and i think that fates having pegasus knights not be gender locked was a based decision

i HATE to pull this immediately after saying i'm not basing it off of any characters literally a jeritza mercedes situation. i feel like a similar thing ends up happening, house martritz falls and bagi and cellbit are both born with a minor crest of lamine, which makes them and their mother the only people with that crest alive. because of this, they then attempt to flee to fargus but somehow cellbit gets separated and left behind in adrestia, and ends up meeting bad who ends up explaining the whole rundown of the church and agarthans to him. he's got some feelings about faith magic because its kinda stands for everything that put him in the situation he's in (his crest being based around faith magic, faith magic being directly tied to the church) but he's like secretly REALLY good at it.

bad is a victim of the crest experimentation done by those who slither in the dark (twsitd) but in this au instead of drastically decreasing your lifespan, it does the opposite and they've basically made bad functionally immortal. he was like an ORIGINAL original experimentation, being one of the first people to actually be given crest by serios (he has a major crest of serios) but willingly joined the agarthans and after the creation of the ten elites and defeat of nemesis, he was given a minor crest of blaiddyd against his will which turns him both against the agarthans and the church. he runs into cellbit (who was ..."adopted" into another noble house) and sees someone who is pretty similar to him, and after a while explains the situation (but does not tell him about having two crests)

now bagi is in fargus and is living as a commoner basically, and kinda has a similar story where she knows her brother is out there and wants to find him to bring him to fargus. despite legally being a commoner her status is known to the royal family, and she trains as a non-traditional knight (she uses axes instead of lances) until she ends up at garreg mach where she pivots into some magic training. most people do not know about her crest because she literally will not divulge that information unless she has to. when shit goes down MUCH later on, she more or less immediately defects to adrestia - not because of her brother but because she does Not like the church. she has so many problems with the crest system its crazy, and when told there is an organization against it she doesn’t even hesitate to join even without knowing about crest experimentation. 

also some other stuff:

cellbit

minor crest of lamine

personal skill: survival instinct (+4 Strength, Magic, Dexterity, and Speed for one turn after defeating an enemy when initiating combat.)

boons: lances, reason, brawling

banes: authority, heavy armour, riding

budding talent: faith

bad

major crest of serios, minor crest of blaiddyd

personal skill: confidence (+15 Hit and Avoid if user's HP = 100%.)

boons: lances, riding, authority, heavy armour

banes: faith, reason

budding talent: bows

bagi

minor crest of lamine

personal skill: rallying cry (+2 damage dealt by all allies within a two-tile radius of the user)

boons: flying, axes, faith

banes: authority, bows, heavy armour

budding talent: reason

#qsmp #3h au #maybe i will post more (i will) #also the church is the federation in this au kinda imagine cucurcuho as a less sympathetic rhea #also ok little headcanon i have for the actual game too is that crests have these side effects right #those with the crest of lamine are naturally protective + have higher resistance to magic + are very smart due to their magical inclination #so cellbit and bagi are just inherently better at figuring things out than other people because their brains are wired for magic #due to only having a minor crest of blaiddyd the insane physical strength doesn't hit bad too often #but every once in a while he will use Too Much Force and accidentally break something #and the crest of serios makes him very charismatic but unable to lie (nothing about half truths though !)

Here are Cee’s totally plausible guesses for the ‘secret’ Carlos shares

1) He killed someone

2) He is pregnant

3) He has an evil twin

4) He has an ex in jail that’s getting out of jail for the ✨drama✨

5) His family are actually a mafia family and it’s time TK learned the truth

6) He had a few run ins with a law as a teenager and was involved in a ‘bad crowd’ who are back.

7) He owes someone a lot of money

8) He married someone for tax/money reasons 5 years ago and just remembered about it

9) His real name is embarrassing and Carlos is a middle name

10) He’s not actually Texan

Feel free to add your own

#Tarlos #Carlos Reyes #TK Strand #911 lonestar #this is obviously a joke #some of them less of a joke #since Carlos doesn’t actually have a past or any form of information outside of TK and the group some of them might be a half truth #he’s probably not pregnant though

coming out of my baldurs gate 3 delirium (aka i am working a night shift and can't physically play it. at work.) to say that horikoshi. horikoshi when i GET YOU. you are NOT leaving izuku with no quirk and no arms. i am in your walls

#bnha spoilers #also. more evidence that horikoshi read zero-sum game #like come on the twins thing the izuku losing his quirk thing the losing his arm thing the shiggy getting decay from afo thing #TELL ME THE TRUTH HORIKOSHI. DID YOU READ MY FANFIC. #i'm joking of course. he's just done a really good job of foreshadowing through the series. its a marker of an amazing author #and i know that izuku probably won't lose both his arms and his quirk. i fully expect it to be a happy ending in some way shape or form #this is a sixteen year old boy who sacrificed EVERYTHING. more than he ever had to give #and he had less than a year. LESS THAN A YEAR. #sorry i'm already crying thinking about the scene of him holding shigaraki's hand even though it will decay him........ #izuku who knows better than ANYONE what shigaraki's power can do.... reaching out to him. caring more about others than about himself. #he's just. he's so good. he's SO GOOD. he deserves the world #tbh i feel like eri HAS to be involved at this point. she's the deus ex machina in all this #that or overhaul #both of their abilities can at least physically restructure izuku's body #it would actually be a very interesting redemption point for overhaul....... #i mean WHY ELSE RESCUE HIM. and why give him THE SAME FUCKING INJURY #what a powerful thing it would be to have eri give overhaul his arms back #and overhaul learning about goodness and forgiveness from this girl he's done nothing but abuse and torture #and saves izuku........ #its about ATONEMENT. its about GROWTH. its about IT NEVER BEING TOO LATE. #AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE YOU MY HERO ACADEMIA #... ok. i'm normal. its fine. #on another note #i loved the ending to my first bg3 run which i think i finished Tuesday/Wednesday. i cried. #IMMEDIATELY started a durge run where i'm playing a male human bard instead of the female half-wood elf ranger #i was like 'haha. i'll make a character based on hisoka from hxh! i'm gonna be SOOOO evil! >:)) #and guess who still isn't good at being big evil. ME. at worst i'm probably chaotic neutral. #its wild i'm already finding SO MANY new scenes i missed on the first playthrough even though i'm making a lot of the same choices #so it still feels super fun and fresh. more so now because i kind of know the characters and the mechanics better #my current playthrough i'm with lae'zel shadowheart and asterion with no intention of switching out

wait i just remembered. on friday we has a "awesome committee" staff meeting which is apparently just a meeting for staff to like. bring food. play games. and bond with each other? and this week we played two truths and a lie

mine were i have only broken one bone and it wasn't even my fault (lie), i'm the youngest of five children (true), and i dislocated my arm six times before the age of seven (also true)

so many people picked the youngest of five children as the lie. one person commented that they thought i might have four sibling but i don't give off youngest child energy or something

what does that mean

what. what energy do i give off. what birth order vibe do i have. i just remember this happened and it has been haunting me ever since

#personal #two truths and a lie #birth order #what does this mean. #my energy is 'adhd golden retriever who is too eager for their own good and also can't stay still for too long' #like even if i excluded my half siblings i'm still the youngest of three kids #i mean i think i give off a very confident vibe (false) because my fellow interns do seem to come to me with questions #i've always blamed the false competence vibe on my english accent though. americans just assume english = smart for some reason #which is super funny bc my family is from northern england #which is traditionally a very working class accent #not the smart posh southern one #also idk if i play two truths and a lie differently than other people but. i was prepared for cross examination. #no hesitation i was expecting people to ask questions. what bone? when? how did you break it? #but apparently that isn't how other people play this game #idk to me it's an improv game!! you have to convince people of all three! #also rip sorry to bill who worked in DCS for a time i promise i was not an abused child i was just clumsy as fuck with weak ass joints #he was like 'uhhh i hope that last one is the false one bc my work history means i get worried!!' #m8 the only time i actually remember dislocating my arm happened when my sister literally just. pushed me off the arm of the couch #i just landed wrong #we were watching tom and jerry and did the game kids do. where i sat on the arm of the chair. she pushed me off. #i sat back on the arm of the chair. she shoved me off. rinse and repeat until i dislocated my arm #sometimes you're a child and you just like being surprise shoved off of things onto the floor #some of the other times were just like. i tripped while holding my mum's hand. my mum did not let go of my hand. #and my arm joint decided to side with gravity i guess #actually the six times before the age of seven is a slight exaggeration. it was before the age of 5. #5 or 4 #shoutout to the 'click clack moo' book i had that received the high honor of getting my from-the-doctor-panda-sticker attached to it #ALSO do people play two truths and a lie with their lie being like one (1) tiny detail in an otherwise true fact being the lie?? #i just straight up lie. i just say something that has never once happened to me #if i say something you know to be MOSTLY true about me then the whole thing is probably true

Ive been reading a lot of african history lately (mostly late-colonial and early-postcolonial stuff about politics, conflicts, and social movements) and this came up in my amazon.

Like i get that it's an important topic to have records of (especially from an author involved in the events) and that this is a self-published thing but

Did this guy literally have no one with any taste around to critique his font choice?

#internalmelon #fucking diary of a wimpy kid apartheid edition over here #half these guys pick stupid tom clancy titles for their memoirs too #like one guy called his 'shadows of a forgotten past: to the edge with the rhodesian sas and selous scouts' so edgy lol #and they always have some anecdote of a time they werent racist that sounds kinda fake lol #some of them are shameless though. one guy's memoir about his time in a rhodesian police unit describes his own binge drinking on duty #the other side lie all the time too like its just ridiculous how much bs you have to sift through to get crumbs of the truth

I am now around the beginning of Chapter 6 and just. Man. Like yeah some of the dialogue and scenes are interesting and fun to see with future context but this is a slog even with autoskip 😔

I could probably get to Chapter 8 tonight if I really wanted to but like. My wrists are starting to hurt.

#the fact that I have to play through the 2/3rds of the game. 3 times for each route. is really not fun imo. #though I am very much someone who isn’t the hugest fan of replaying/rewatching stuff 😔 #but man like. i have 55 hours clocked in this game and I’ve only actually finished ONE AND A HALF routes. #and then there’s the elephant in the room of truthful but I think with ryo and shuuji surviving longer I think that will mix up the early #game so I’m not too worried about that #dramon thoughts #digimon survive spoilers #< cause I mention ryo and shuuji dying lol #roseate plays survive
