tng update time. last night we did "heart of glory" and "arsenal of freedom."

heart of glory verdict: REALLY GOOD. i knew going in this was a worf episode but i was NOT expecting the scene at the beginning with geordi! that could have easily been its own episode but it was SO COOL to see how he sees finally - i had been wondering about it.

after watching tholian web i decided it was silly for them to go to that other ship where life support was failing with NO SPACE SUITS. i guess it wouldn't have helped in the event the ship blew up but come on

klingon death ritual a little unsettling at first but actually later i decided it was metal as hell.

worf's dilemma was so good. like in the naked time when he went THAT WORLD IS ALIEN TO ME NOW you can see that he's at odds with both where he came from and where he is now and doesn't feel totally at home in either, which, frankly, is spockcore (honorific). he instantly shot up several spaces in my tng character ranking

and his solution was so good! like, these wackos dont represent what he really wants because they arent Real Klingons theyre extremists or whatever. ik it's a little bit of a copout in some ways but it was kind of nice for him to be able to form his own, third answer to "who's better, humans or klingons." like sometimes the answer is neither are really connecting with me rn im just gonna keep truckin

i will say that there were hints of people doubting worf's loyalties here and him straight up killing that other dude put it all to bed. dont EVER question him again. i'll kill you.

also lowkey racist when that klingon picked the little girl up and everybody went to pieces :/

him promising he was just being polite and didnt want to leave the enterprise lol. everybody stared until he promised TWICE. so true. possibly my fav tng episode so far

arsenal of freedom: NOT that great. not sure why we were watching that one except the lists said to.

i recognized the peddler from other shows, probably b*ffy in this instance. he just has one of those faces

the whole time dr crusher was in the hole i kept waiting for them to huddle for warmth and then they DIDNT. not that i even necessarily wanted to see her demeaned to this level like it would've made me mad but WHY ELSE would you mention she's cold. like i'm also mad that they didn't

also this could've been a tos episode. imagine if bones was in a little hole and spock and kirk had to set his broken arm and unbury him and keep him warm. i know that's just the empath. shut up

kind of dumb of her not to mention she had a leg wound when it was quite literally covered in dirt. girl come on

anyway i liked her acting in this scene. ultimately i've just decided i'm glad they didn't cuddle because this is one of the first times i've seen her as a person and not a Woman(tm). the other time was that other episode where she was nerd out about uh...oh man now i'm mad i can't remember. she was nerding out about some science thing or some famous science person in an episode we watched not too long ago and i liked that too. and then forgot to make a note of it. rip dr crusher :(

ALSO. sorry. if they were getting shot at it was dumb of them to send data alone down into the hole. everybody should have gone into the hole for safety. or data should have pulled picard up so they had an extra phaser. cmon

anyway i liked geordi's thing in this ep. that guy invalidating him was horrible and i'm glad he got to have the last word and also get his moment. GEORDI DESERVES A MOMENT. the ship splitting up is still fucking hilarious to me though. there's so many logical problems with this it makes your head spin

also, once again, there should NOT !!! be children on a starship. insane.

next i am doing "symbiosis" on my own and then tomorrow we're doing "skin of evil" together.

Wildly curious about The Friendliest Shoggoth and Pickman's Better Model actually? (Have you seen the Cabinet of Curiosities version of Pickman's Model?)

I have not seen Cabinet of Curiosities yet, but I definitely want to, especially Pickman's Model, I'm just waiting for The Perfect Moment (tm). Did you know Guillermo del Toro had a screenplay for At the Mountains of Madness, but he abandoned it after Prometheus came out because it is essentially the Aliens version of ATMOM? Wish he still would have done it.

ANYWAY...

The Friendliest Shoggoth - it is alluded to in At the Mountain of Madness that at least once the Shoggoths tried to rebel against the Elder Things to escape their lives of slavery, so in typical me fashion, I have focused on this one little tidbit that is never mentioned again and have decided to expand upon it. The added twist, though, is that I am writing it like a mother goose/nursery rhyme/bed time story (for adults), and a friend of mine is illustrating it. Its intended to be a gift for a friend, but we might also see about getting it published.

Once upon a time there was a shoggoth. In fact there were many shoggoths, but this particular shoggoth was the friendliest in all of the far flung reaches of time and space in which the shoggoths and their Elder Thing masters inhabited.

Pickman's Better Model - this is a Fallout 4 fanfic, I don't think you are a FO4 fan, so I'll do my best to explain in understandable ways, but if you are forgive me for talking to you like you know nothing about FO4 XD

Since FO4 takes place in the Boston area, there are a lot of Lovecraft references, one of which is a place called Pickman's gallery, which is where Pickman displays his art (his art being the corpses of the antagonistic raiders he kills, plus some actual, more traditional, wall type art). You are tasked by one of the NPCs (that can become a traveling companion) to investigate the gallery. This character is a ghoul (NOT in the Lovecraft way, but I imagine that was also an intentional reference/set up). I like taking him with me to the gallery when ever I do that quest, so basically the fic idea spawned from that, except that in the story Pickman actually tells the PC to bring the ghoul character to him (instead of the ghoul asking him to go to the gallery) because he wants to meet him. Pickman is, unsurprisingly obsessed with our ghoul friend, and wants to know how he made himself a ghoul. Then hijinks ensue.

Hope that made some measure of sense. LOL

I'm gonna rate Charley's adventures with Eight out of 10 stars.

under a cut since it's long, doesn't have spoilers.

Storm Warning 10/10

Charley cries when she meets an alien for the first time because the universe is awesome.

Sword of Orion 8/10

Great continuation of setting up who Charley is and who Eight is. Both willing to run the hell forward to get their hands covered in blood to help stop the bleeding.

Stones of Venice 8/10

would have gotten all ten stars if the writers hadn't chickened out at the very last second. Solidarity or drown, motherfuckers.

Minuet in Hell 5/10

Really ableist. Like. It's set in the 80s or something. And there's that much casual ableism that we're supposed to just pretend is normal. WTF. Also I don't think these people have ever met or spoken to an American from the southern states in their lives....

Invaders from Mars 0/10

does nothing for the characters or the universe. transmisogyny and ableism galore, though, because Mark Gattiss thinks bigotry is funny.

The Chimes of Midnight 10/10

everything. yes. I cried.

Seasons of Fear 10/10

so fucking funny. so funny. Eight truly does not give a single shit about the web of time and it's so funny. Hea is setting such a bad example for Charley.

Embrace the Darkness 6/10

Loses starts for being ableist and making characters blind only to magically cure them because god forbid disabled people actually exist.

The Time of the Daleks 7/10

note that I am taking away a metaphorical star because. time travelling through mirrors? That is the worst idea I have ever heard. please stop that.

Neverland 10/10

I need to murder the Doctor's brother. And Romana. And all the Time Lords on Gallifrey who have ever had anything to do with the government. Move the hell out of the way Master, THEY'RE MINE.

Also Doctor I'm gonna kill you.

Zagreus 10/10

must. kill. rassilon. I love Charley Pollard. I love the TARDIS. Have I mentioned I hate Rassilon? I hate Rassilon. I love his voice actor though. He is extremely good at his job. Also applause for whoever voice acts the computer. extremely scary. good job. did I mention I love the TARDIS.

Scherzo 10/10

I don't have words the sound baby ate them all. I love everything about this. The only thing it would make it better is if a later episode let Charley be mad but nooooo after this it all goes downhill because I gues????? none of these people bothered to listen to Zagreus?????

The Creed of the Kromon

0/10 Do not listen to this. It is a hate-crime and I do not say that lightly. I am not being hyperbolic. Do not listen to this. I hope everyone who let this get past the script approval stage dies.

The Natural History of Fear 7/10

I love the sound of explosions in the morning. Loses points for not actually mattering to the characters, though.

The Twilight Kingdom 5/10

idk I got bored of it like 20 mins in on this re-listen. I don't remember what the plot was. I remember C'rizz pisses me off though. Probably attacks Charley.

Faith Stealer 8/10

Miraculite please mine my dreams for crystals I would like some pretty glowy crystals. I love that god. I would die for that god. Loses points for repeated Crimes Against Women by referencing The Creed of the Kromon. I will kill C'rizz with my bare hands.

The Last 4/10

Ableist. Could have been great minus the ableism and if, once again, the writer didn't chicken out at the very last moment. I have never wanted to see a nuclear bomb go off so badly in my life. If I could teleport in I would shove Eight out of the way so I could set the fucking nuke off myself. Hea was taking way too fucking long. And then of course there is the chickening out. What, tell me WHAT is the point in setting off a nuclear bomb that destroys your whole planet if no one remembers it? What is the point of that? This story could have been so good. But for no fucking reason the author decided to go "lol and no one remember but the Doctor because uh.....reasons?". coward.

Caerdroia 10/10

the scene with the cows is so funny. Though I am of course obligated to ask: why the hell are there cows. Where did those cows come from? Hello??????? anyways Eight is. Hilarious. "I'm so mean and edgy now I don't care hahah1!!! I'm mean now!!!!!!!!" sure you are :)

The Next Life 0/10

this audio is literally so brain-numbingly boring I couldn't even pay attention to it the first time. I have literally no idea what the fuck happens because I could not make myself pay attention becaues it was that boring. All I know is that Charley(!??!?!?!?!) and C'rizz are both calling Rassilon (don't ask me why he's there, it doesn't make any fucking sense no matter what stupid justification they probably tried to give) "my lord" and it's like. Did you not listen to Zagreus. Charley will spit in Rassilon's face. She would fucking stab him if given the chance. What the fuck's she doing calling him "my lord"??? I don't know because this audio is such boring shit I literally couldn't pay attention no matter how hard I tried!!!!

Terror Firma 9/10

I love this writer. I love how they actually gave C'rizz a personality I don't mind. This is the only audio where I don't want to murder C'rizz with every fiber of my being. It's funny. It's sad as shit. It loses a point for the ableism towards Davros and the misogyny for no reason.

Scardey Cat 2/10

so boring I once again have no idea what the plot is because I stopped paying attention because it was boring. I vaguely recall Eight randomly deciding that Actually He Does Care About The Laws Of Time seemingly just so he can yell at C'rizz for breaking them. Ok.

Other Lives 0/10

ableist, stupid premise that immediately throws suspension of disbelief out the window, just no.

Time Works 3/10

it would have been almost fine............if it were part of the Divergent Universe Arc. as it was clearly meant to be. But then they shoved it all the way down here for some reason?? which makes no sense. Along with the "this was clearly meant to take place earlier" thing the voice acting is just bad for the side characters and the music is.....overwrought? They're trying too hard and it just makes it annoying. The way the side characters are talking is extremely stilted and awkward. Just bad all around.

Something Inside 5/10

Eh, nothing bad about it, just not very entertaining.

Memory Lane 6/10

Same as Something Inside, kinda boring. Gets an extra star since we get to see Charley's mom again.

Absolution 0/10

this. where do I even begin. oh my god. I don't even know where to start. Just. Search my blog for Absolution. It's so horribly written it is, literally, unbelievable.

The Girl Who Never Was 4/10

Charley is extremely out of character and there's literally no reason for it at all. The plot does not demand she be out of character. The plot would not change at all if she was in character. It's just. stupid. There are also some plot holes and again. Charley's ridiculously OOC. For no reason. It's really annoying. if Charley were in character it could maybe work, but the premise is also stupid as shit. And it doesn't need to be. Just throw the fucking whole premise out the window. There's no reason they couldn't have just been separated by Normal Eight And Charley Shennanigans. The plot wouldn't even need to change. It's just stupid.

All four stars come from the last line. because holy shit.

#Rjalker listens to Doctor Who #Rjalker listens to Charley's Adventures #Rjalker listens to The Eigth Doctor

Like, it's something to be said that, though Kadaj--and later Yazoo and Loz--were created via Sephiroth's will, they Do Not know what they are or who created them. Not truly.

In the novel, which takes place before Advent Children, Kadaj is 1) the only Remnant, and 2) only has a strong desire to find Mother. His goal is what drives him 24/7 and he doesn't really give much thought into the finer points of his existence. He doesn't look into why he has fancy powers, a result of being a lifeform that is both real and not. He doesn't care. Because he doesn't NEED to care. He's just doing. He's following his programming.

Kadaj, in the novel, reads as a being that is both alien and also a human child. Because he's out here reading minds, trying to appeal to people by pretending to be someone (dead) that they care(d) about, by healing them, to get information about Jenova...but when that doesn't work, he gets frustrated and resorts to extreme acts of violence. He mistakes unintentional misinformation from a faulty memory to be a legitimate attempt at lying to him--which he can't stand, if you remember Advent Children--and he "takes back his gift" of healing with a mere thought, instantly crippling a guy. And then he escalates from there. Goes to the guy's "girlfriend" (who unintentionally gave him his name btw) to get information from her...but she shoots him. Which only results in making him more mad. So he torches a whole town because he knows she's afraid of fire due to her past.

Kadaj is what happens when you give phenomenal cosmic power to a being that has existed for a handful of days and can handle its own emotions about as well as a child can.

Kadaj's idea of fun is making an ~8-foot vertical leap~ onto a helicopter that is trying to shoot him, stabbing through its window to intentionally halt his blade mere centimeters from Reno's nose, vanishing, and then reappearing behind them in the back seat to say, "Boo." Legit, he says, "Boo."

Not to mention that he gets jealous. In AC, he's jealous of Sephiroth, because he thinks Mother likes him more. (Kadaj still doesn't realize who created him.) In the novel, he gets jealous of the main character in regards to the "girlfriend", because he took from said girl's memories information about a boy she used to like--Kadaj--and has accidentally incorporated a bit of that into his identity.

That's another thing about Kadaj--he is extremely empathetic. I've said this before, but it bears repeating, he gets flooded with the MC's emotions from getting punched in the face. He can't handle his own emotions, getting a dose of someone else's is Blue Screen of Death. And then makes him mad again because MC had a mother and friends and people that cared about him and Kadaj...does not.

Or did not.

He comes back with two brothers, though, now doesn't he?

Anyway, Kadaj doesn't have all his facts. Like, ever. Even when he tells Cloud, "So what if I'm a puppet?" it's because he's still under the assumption that there's a mommy out there who just wants to be reunited with her son. ...And not that Sephiroth needs his real-but-not-real body and a handful of Jenova's cells to morph it into his own so that he can possess it and tell Cloud, "Haha, Geostigma was me all along, dipshit. Get fucked."

...So, when your creator gets his ass beat and then peaces out, leaving you to die (again) in the arms of your "brother" from the grievous wounds you now have...and then you wake up in some weird ass land where every fucking FF character is...including Sephiroth... Yeah, makes sense that Kadaj, in Opera Omnia, is like, "NOT TODAY, OR EVER AGAIN, SATAN!"

And also why Sephiroth is just like, "Oh, wow, you can exist here, too? ...Lol. *leaves*"

orange and gold

...I just need more Cole and Vania content, they seem like they'd be great friends.

Basically it's just 'Cole goes to visit her there, they almost burn down the kitchen, and make way too many puns', lol.

Set a few months after Master of the Mountain, but before Seabound or The Island.

Also yeah, I couldn't think of a better title, sue me- I just know that they wear one of the colours at some point, so... 🤦‍♀️😂

Trigger warnings: none I think? Huh-

Also, bingo!! I really need to learn better time management, dear freaking gosh- I hope I'm not too late though? I know it's like half a day late, eek- and I was supposed to post this earlier, but I ended up literally falling asleep while writing it😂

Thank you so much Fabro, for hosting such a cool event!:D Your comments on my fics literally never fail to make my day<3. And I'm so glad that I met so many awesome, really skilled people through this event too - it's been a lot of fun working alongside y'all:D, I wish I'd had more time to interact instead of posting stuff and vanishing lol, but exams be like:////

Prompt: cooking (does baking count as cooking? I realized too late lol-) from @ninjago-bingo 's warm board.

Word Count: 2497

---

Trying to escape from killer dire-bats hadn't been on Cole's to do list today - although the mountains were kind of beautiful.

It was a bit difficult to see them while he was being dragged to his death, but hey, didn't Jay always tell them to be more positive?

That was, until he made the mistake of looking down.

Miles of snowcapped mountains touched the pastel blue sky, but he was more focused on exactly how high he was from the ground.

Great.

Trying to swing back onto the Bounty, he didn't notice a golden-winged blur shoot past the bat, almost dropping their spear in haste.

"Let my friend go, or I'll-"

"Vania?"

She throws the spear at the bird, successfully knocking one of its wings.

Huh. She must've been practicing - throwing with accuracy while flying seemed kinda difficult.

"I'm so sorry!" she replies, grabbing his arm before he fell down too. She winces at the strain on her wings, almost dropping him onto the deck. "I was supposed to come earlier, but there was an issue with one of the mines, and it took forever to-"

"There ain't anything in this world that's managed to kill me yet," he replies jokingly, checking that the autopilot hadn't been damaged. "I doubt an angry bird is going to be the first."

"Didn't you mention that you became a ghost once? Pretty sure that means you were dead-"

"Shh, that's not an important detail," he jokes.

"If you say so," she replies with a grin. "Did I mention that Chompy's been tearing down the palace flower arrangements again?"

"Send my regards to the gardener-"

"Did you just make a pun?"

"Remind me why I decided to visit you again?"

"Because you love me?" she asks stepping onto the ground as the Bounty landed gently.

"I hereby crown you as my platonic soulmate," Cole deadpans, taking her hand. "Vania and Cole-"

"Destined to annoy each other for eternity," she giggles, swinging their hands up and down. "But seriously - thanks. I don't think I realized how much work being a queen was."

"What's it like?"

"I mean - I'm glad that people trust me, and they come to me if they have a problem, but the paperwork is a nightmare. I never get to go outside anymore, I swear."

"Paperwork? Also, you just invited me here for a week. I don't wanna disturb you?"

"Nah, I cleared my schedule, don't worry. And trust me, you don't want to know. Everything requires some sort of official written thing, and it's so boring-"

"Official? But you're the queen?"

"Well, yeah, but I don't really want to change something unless it benefits the people. Not after..."

Her smile dims, eyes straying to the palace walls.

Oh- oh.

"You're nothing like him," Cole says firmly, squeezing her hand. "I mean, if you need to take a break, or you can make your job a bit easier by cutting out something unnecessary, that's just gonna help you become a better queen. You've definitely got the interests of your people at heart, and that's the most important thing, you know? And well, uh, everything seems to be going great so far - you don't have to beat yourself up over someone else's mistakes."

"Thanks," she replies softly, her smile slowly returning. "Speaking of breaks, what do you think we should do this time?"

"You could show me around the city again?"

"You've already seen everything cool," Vania giggles, skipping ahead of him. "We don't renovate much - unlike you guys-"

"Hey, it's not our fault that our city gets destroyed every few months-"

"More like every few days," she teases, tying back her golden hair. "How about we find some dragons to adopt?"

"Tempting, but where would you keep them?"

"They could sleep in my room-"

She breaks off when she notices him laughing. "What?"

"N- nothing," Cole replies, in between laughs. "Jay and I just made a bet."

"On what?"

"How many dragons you've adopted. I bet at least six, he bet fifteen."

"Well, jokes on both of you - I'm pretty sure my advisor's going to throw a fit if I show up with another one," she starts, giggling. "We've got twenty living in the palace right now."

"Twenty dragons?"

"They're so cute! You just look into their adorable little eyes," Vania pauses for breath, continuing her animated gesturing, "and you can't help but wanna hug them!"

"Oh, Jay's going to be so mad."

"Aww, I'm sorry guys. They're just too adorable!"

"...Wanna hear a funny story?"

"Yeah, sure!"

"I actually used to be terrified of dragons-"

"No way!" Vania exclaims. "Y'all have been on a lot of adventures though, so-"

"Nah, we used to have our own dragons at first. They were pretty cool! I just- I'm a simple guy! Huge animals with wings are scary up close when you're barely a teenager."

"Or when you're really short-"

"We're the same height!" Cole exclaims, facepalming in a bit of a fondly exasperated way.

"I'm two years younger than you-"

---

"Ugh, whose idea was this?"

"Yours," Vania grins, sitting down on the kitchen counter.

"You were supposed to help me, not leave me high and dry!" Cole accuses jokingly, staring at all the appliances they'd found in the cupboards.

"'One must always be prepared for new adventures,'" she quotes seamlessly, waving one of- what was his name again? Mulch something? Oh! Clutch! Some explorer he was, leaving them to die in the pyramid - Clutch Powers' books in the air.

"Fine," he sighs, staring at the old recipe book she'd found in one of their back cupboards. "But you've gotta help me? I almost burned down-" "Woah, what? If you finish that sentence with 'kitchen'-" "In my defense, Kai was playing a prank on me-" "In my defense, I wouldn't like to explain how the queen of Shintaro burnt down the palace by teaching one of her friends to cook," she grins, flipping through the pages. "What do you wanna start with?" "Something simple?" "Have you ever tried baking bread before? It's a lot of fun!" "I haven't really had the time, but that sounds kinda interesting."

He skims the recipe, raising his eyebrows. "Wait, why does this take hours? I thought you said it was simple?"

"Trust me, it is," she laughs, adding, "besides, I still wanna hear about all your adventures!" "Uh... okay," Cole replies hesitantly, "but if this fails, I'm so sorry." "Give yourself some credit, you guys literally saved the world! Multiple times!" "Bold of y'all to assume we know how we did it," he laughs, only half-kidding. "Besides. I botched soup once."

"I've botched toast," she mock-sighs, smiling. "Pretty sure that makes us even."

"Lemme get this straight. You've messed up toasting bread, but you can bake it from scratch?"

"Trust me, I don't know either," she giggles, trying to open a brightly coloured packet of... something? Did flour come in packets that small?

"Uh, why are you opening something called 'feast'?" he asks, eyebrows creased in confusion.

"Feast," she echoes, trying to stifle her laughter. "Off to a... rocky start, aren't we?"

It took him a second.

"I already regret this," he jokes, facepalming. "But I'd say that your puns are, uh, gold."

"I've un- unleashed-" breaking off, she half-falls off the counter, laughing so hard her face starts to go red, "a monster."

---

"Uh, is it supposed to look like that?" Cole asks, frowning.

The mixture looked less like the dough he'd been expecting - more like one of Jay's inventions gone wrong.

Badly wrong, he thought, eyes widening at the goopy mess of foam that threatened to spill over the jug.

"The yeast?" Vania echoes, poking her head out of one of the cupboards. "Yeah, all good! It always looks a little gross, and you're gonna doubt ever eating bread again, but at least it doesn't taste like it's fermented-"

"It's what?"

"Yeah," she grimaces, exaggerating her disgust a bit. "If aliens ever fell from the sky, they'd think we were crazy for eating bread-"

"Aliens? I think we're a bit crazy!" Cole exclaims, trying not to laugh.

Vania smiles, then sighs, lugging a huge bag of flour onto the counter. "I can never open these bags properly," she starts, eyeing the the bag a bit warily, "and it always makes such a huge mess all over the kitchen. You'd think they'd make it easier for people to use, right? I swear-"

He jokingly puts his hands over his ears. "I can't hear you!" "But you know that I've sworn off swearing-" she replies, breaking off with a laugh. "Pun not intended - that actually made sense in my head. I swear!"

"No," Cole interjects with a grin, shaking his head. "You don't, remember?"

"See, this is why we're friends-"

"Friends? Is that all I am to you?"

"Oh, be quiet," she shoots back, exaggeratedly dragging a hand down her face. "I mean, sure, just because everyone thinks that we're dating doesn't mean that we-"

Wait. What?

"People think that we're dating?" he asks, clamping a hand over his mouth in a poor attempt to muffle his laughter. "I- I- really?"

"I know, right?"

"Even my friends thought so at first," he confesses, dragging a hand down his face. "I mean, as much as I love you-"

"I love you too," Vania replies, completely seriously. "Even if you'll always be more like an annoying-"

"Hey-"

"Sibling to me than anything else," she finishes, grabbing a pair of scissors. Cole watches, a little alarmed, as she stabs them into the flour bag over and over.

"Is it... supposed to be this difficult to just open the bag? Seems kinda stupid-"

"Well, er, they have this piece of paper with glue that you're supposed to pull away from the rest of the bag, but it never works properly and I-"

"Well, we could always make our own flour," Cole interjects, laughing. "I mean, I've got a scythe? Let's go!"

"Uh, but we don't have wheat growing here. I don't think it'd suit the climate very well?"

"Wheat a shame," Cole sighs jokingly, measuring out the flour (which had, finally, escaped the bag).

"Oh my gosh," Vania deadpans, "you did not just-"

"Yep, I did."

"You're horrible," she giggles, "then again, I was the one who started this whole debacle, so I think we'll share the blame."

"Debacle? Where'd you pick that one up from? Sounds kinda cool-"

"Oh, it's from a book someone wrote about you guys," Vania says casually, pouring a cup of water into the bowl.

"Hey, uh-" Cole starts hesitantly, twisting his fingers back and forth, then breaks off. "Why'd you read all that stuff about us, anyways? Adventure books don't really seem like something you read a lot, since we have similar favorite books. I mean..."

"Well, um..." Vania trails off, clearly uncomfortable. "Uh- I guess, well, it sounds kinda stupid, but I'd never really met anyone my age who wasn't a royal or something. I... er, I didn't want to be left out, you know?"

Cole thinks back to a scroll; a quest, a sacrifice. One that his friends never seemed to really notice, unless it was with horror or flinches. Not that he blamed them, but - joking about how he was much more useful to the team when he was freaking dead than he was before he'd stumbled and fell in the temple?

That had been a bit far, even for his best friend. Locks could always be picked or something, he didn't need to be a ghost to provide some sort of value-

Well, that's not completely true, is it? a small voice questions, and he can't keep his hands from shaking a little.

"Jay here thinks you're the least valuable ninja."

Not enough to be a performer. Now, not good enough to even be a ninja, apparently.

Well, he reminds himself firmly, you don't have to be the best - just stand up to those who are cruel and unjust.

Nothing but a scar that glowed warm orange occasionally left of the whole Cursed Realm ordeal, sometimes it was all too easy to forget - or pretend - that it had never even happened in the first place.

Other times, like when he'd dropped a glass of water on the floor and his hands hadn't stopped shaking for hours, or when he woke up screaming, expecting to fall through his bed again, it still felt like he was trapped as a ghost. Literally - and maybe a little figuratively as well.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

"Thanks for trusting me with that," he replies softly. "And I'm sorry. That sounds... horrible, but, honestly, you're a pretty cool person, and I ain't just saying that because we're friends. People can be awful, and they can- they can leave, but you don't need to pretend to be someone you're not for people to accept you. I kinda know what it's like, and it's... just, uh, not great."

"No, thank you," Vania says, rubbing her eyes. "You're pretty cool, too. And I'm glad that we become friends, even if wasn't in the- the, er, greatest circumstances."

"Right back at ya. The fall was pretty terrifying, though," Cole says casually, as if memories of that nightmarish plunge into the depths of earth don't still send shivers down his spine.

"No, definitely! I was so sure we were gonna splat onto the ground or something, thank gosh we didn't."

"Yeah..." Cole trails off, reading the recipe they'd been following. "Oh- do we just leave the bowl somewhere for a few hours now?"

"Oh, yeah," Vania answers. "Other than clean up the kitchen, what else do you wanna do?"

"That's kind of you, but, ah, I don't mind. You can choose something."

"I don't mind either," she replies, covering the bowl with a dishcloth. "Seriously, I don't."

"Same here though."

"Really, I don't mind-" Vania breaks off with a laugh, adding, "Well, actually, there is something."

She doesn't elaborate, thoughtfully gazing out the window.

"Well, what is it? Don't keep me in the dark."

"Ugh, it's kinda stupid-"

"I'm sure that it's not- well, unless you want to try to jump off a flying ship with a homemade parachute to prove a bet to someone-"

"Do I even wanna know?"

"...uh, probably not. We're way too crazy sometimes, our Master has a hard time keeping us in check. Your thing, though?"

"Can I give you a hug?"

Cole blinks for a second, expecting some sort of punchline.

"That's your thing?"

"Well, yeah- I mean, I said it was kinda stupid-"

"No no, that's not what I meant. You're so sweet - that's all."

"Well, not more than you-"

"Nah, you're sweeter-"

"Let's just call it a tie," Vania says with a smile, reaching over to give her friend a hug. "Thank you so much, I swear- well, no, I don't, but you know, anyways-"

"Yeah," Cole replies, laughing softly. "I know."

alright this is super angsty, but would you consider doing a prompt where amy dies? and sonic is holding her in his arms as she loses consciousness and i'm in an angsty mood i'm so sorry

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

WHY!? I mean, don’t you want a happy ending!? I can’t live without closure and this would literally destroy the souls of hopeful shippers, WHY??? (-laughing while crying-) I don’t wanna make people sad with no resolution, oohh….

Trust me, this is gonna hurt me as much as it’s gonna hurt you.

Is it okay if…. I keep something for closure? Just a little smackerel of a something? To lighten the blow?

Y-you’ll thank me later. (hopefully lol I’m just trying to avoid horrific SADNESS. I mean, I know you want to feel human and see Sonic show intense emotion but- COME ON! This is sad stuff! lol)

Prompt:

Amy stared down at the emerald.

Her hammer had rested on it’s tilted tip, lowered by it.

It was the last surviving Chaos Emerald…

Having been fought horrifically over by an alien race and her own planet’s heroes… Amy knew that they wouldn’t stop till they’ve destroyed the very things they feared most.

However, with each Chaos Emerald destroyed, the backlash of Chaos’s uncontrolled fury would erase that individual who destroyed it from existence.

And she meant… all of existence.

She saw the terrifying power above her. Eggman’s forces were parading the skies with an all-out defensive strategy to at least push off the invading alien battleships. It was an armed military, kamikazing down to her planet to destroy their lives to keep anything from overpowering their extraterrestrial empire.

With Shadow having hidden the last… but the earth being rent in the earth, the sky turning black with war, and the land covered in ashes from Chaos’s painful struggle to live…

She looked down at the stone.

Just a piece of rock, housing the most powerful essence in all the galaxies… in all the realms…

If only Eggman hadn’t made contact with them. Asked them to use their astounding tactical intelligence to defeat Sonic… And if only he hadn’t mentioned Super Sonic…

She realized that if the last emerald fell… Sonic and Eggman’s forces could still take down the alien race… they wouldn’t be so focused on keeping ultimate power… and Chaos might just unleash his full fury on the aliens…

Though it would mean sacrifice.

Still…

She looked down at the emerald.

Everyone was growing tried. This silly rock. This stupid piece of stone was ruining her and her friends lives! Everyone who lived here… was suffering because an alien race wanted to harness a power they couldn’t control. Each time they destroyed one, trying to absorb its power into their super-technologies… they would become nonexistent. Forever… doesn’t just mean the future. It can also mean the entirety of the past…

Amy shook her head down. What was she thinking? Sure. With everyone worrying about just taking the enemy down, they wouldn’t put all their efforts into protecting a power source that wasn’t even needed.

Everyone seemed selfish… wanting to keep the greatest power source alive.

But Sonic… he wouldn’t think that way… would he?

She looked back at the dulled edges and sliced curvature of the emerald… it’s green, sleek surface with the scratches of ages…

She hated it suddenly.

Her nostrils flaring.

But then, as she lifted her hammer up, she hesitated.

She squinted her eyes shut and looked away, on the verge of tears.

She loved this world…

She wanted to keep the emeralds too. Even one could help Sonic…

But Sonic didn’t need the emeralds.

She glared back at the cold piece of earth.

Her mouth formed a deep frown of conviction.

He always had the power to do what’s right. Even when no one else could.

She rose her hammer directly over her head and readjusted her legs to stand firmly in front of the fallen emerald.

If Chaos is rampant, Sonic will find a way to defeat the aliens and calm down Chaos. Knuckles can reseal him, like his ancestors before him. He said he could… but it was a last resort.

The aliens would gain confidence once it was gone… but she believed Sonic and her friends could do it.

Even Eggman…

She suddenly started crying.

She didn’t want to die.

She didn’t want to be erased from existence, from the past and the future, and have everyone forget who she was.

When the first emerald broke, no one noticed… it was like there was always 6 emeralds.

Then the second one broke, but no one batted an eye. 5 made sense.

Then 4… to 3… people couldn’t understand why, but the universe felt out of order. Like something was going terribly wrong.

‘…The dimensions split and our friends from other realms came to help us… we were gonna be okay… but then… the aliens began to notice something was off. They couldn’t exactly understand why, but they knew something, or someone, was missing from their folds. If I disappear… does that mean Sonic and the others won’t remember me? But if I don’t exist… or never had before existed… it could be dangerous. Tails warned that the aliens histories must have been changed, and using Chaos control to go back in time and see the emeralds shatter… it was the only way we knew how life was before this happen. Chaos shielded us… when the 2nd emerald broke. That’s how we knew the universe was falling apart. But I’m just simple Amy Rose! If I die… If I die nothing would change… it wouldn’t matter… I can’t lie like this.’

Amy dipped her head and cried. Unable to convince herself that erasing her existence wouldn’t cause any real, significant change.

‘Every life’s important but-!’ Amy shook her head, refocusing. ‘But this life has served its cause! I will do anything to help Sonic! Even if that means..’

‘breaking his heart!’

Her hammer swung true. The world rippled as the sky turned into the northern lights, parallel to each other as all the universes could look through the cracks from the emerald and see one another… each fighting their own version of the catastrophe.

She first saw herselves… all from multiple timelines… different and alternate realities she didn’t recognize.

They all slowly turned, stumbling back as if they’d just been stabbed in the chest, and looked at her with fear and betrayal in their eyes.

Amy couldn’t look at all of them long.

She swung her head away, and cracked the emerald further.

Up in the sky, Sonic could see his classic self suddenly slam down on the spaceship’s surface, twitching.

“Little me!” he cried out, getting down to aid him before looking to see another him slam to the ground.

“Something’s wrong!” The other Sonic called out, struggling to get up. “Gravity isn’t working… ah!” he felt the push fall heavily down on him again.

“What’s going on..?” Sonic got up, looking over the side of the ship.

“Huh? What’s with the light show?” The lights were like a fabric being shaken up and down, lightly trailing the black sky and giving it some color and greater light.

It was hard to tell if it was day or night… but the alien invasion wasn’t holding off much…

Sonic turned to glare at them. “They don’t let up… even when their own realities are shifting.” He felt the surge of impact the ship’s exterior was taking from the alien battleships fire. He kept his balance and grabbed a passing alien fighter-ship. Knocking out the pilot, he tossed him, grunting with the punch. “I’ll take this, thanks!”

‘I gotta find out what’s going on down there… isn’t someone watching the emerald?’

He tried to figure out the odd controls, before lifting his hands, one by one, up and down off the controls to try and figure out the mechanics.

Unable to comprehend, he jumped out of the cockpit and positioned himself like a surfer on the tail-end of the fighter ship till it entered orbit.

That’s when he saw her.

That’s when he saw it.

Her final blow struck the emerald, causing the whole of the different dimensions, universes, and times to crash into one of the triangular planes of existence.

Classic, Boom, Comics,… so many splits that rippled through time and finally fragmented below the main surviving universe…. Modern.

Amy felt her consciousness start to leave her. Small, glowing flakes of her being started to fly off and glow out of sight. Flickering like her life, they made her look like she was softly burning into ashes…

She found the light… strangely terrifying… but also easy to go numb into.

As she closed her eyes, thinking of everything she wished to say to everyone… the emeralds pieces floated up as Chaos’s power began to backlash her.

She felt her body forced to bend back, then arch forward, as it was ripping into her life.

She then heard his voice.

“AMMMY!!!!”

She let her eyelids lightly drift up to see better.

Through the light, she saw Sonic dive down, arms outstretched towards her.

He didn’t look mad.

He didn’t look terribly sad either.

He looked…

Worried.

He was always trying to keep her safe… heh, funny the tables could change so drastically…

“I… I just hope you find someone to love you, Sonic…” She smiled, seeing his body get caught up in the light and float him in his spot.

Realizing the strange shift, he looked down and realized the whole of that spot around them was a pillar of light. Having witnessed through chaos control what happened to the last alien that broke the 2nd emerald, Sonic’s eyes jolted up in absolute terror.

Without voicing anything, he squirmed and tried to move through the light, not voicing any complaint other than his struggles to reach her.

“..A.. Amy!” he finally let something lose, but Amy could hear his voice-crack, and the sound nearly destroyed her before Chaos had the chance to.

She gripped her heart.

“Please don’t… I chose this. Now you can fight the aliens without just playing on the defensive. You can win now, Sonic. You have everything else to protect. They still haven’t won.”

“…Amy!”

She found herself surprised, opening her eyes fully to see his frantic and unyielding struggle to get to her. Through his odd ‘swimming’ of sorts towards her, the light was being manipulated and he was, in fact, moving closer to her.

She shouldn’t be surprised he was fighting to still save her, or maybe even be with her,… but she knew there was no hope of saving her now.

Half her body had formed into light and was being taken up in the pillar… only a half of her face and body were still intact.

“Sonic…” her eyes shook in love for him. “I hope this time… you can find it in your heart to love too.”

“Grrk!” His body froze a second, as if her words penetrated his concentration.

“You’re not going anywhere!” He suddenly cried out, moving faster as his feet sped through the air. “You’re coming with me!”

He tightened his fists and closed his eyes, propelling himself through sheer willpower towards her.

Finally, he got close enough…

“Amy!” He reached out, grabbing what was left of her being.

The second he pulled himself forward, Chaos got disrupted, and a huge lift up captured both of them in its wake.

The world started to fall apart, as Eggman and his other him started to teleport as if time and space weren’t existence to the ground, crashing and looking up to see their spaceship fading in and out of known reality.

“Blast it all!” Eggman cursed upwards, seeing the two other Sonics looking down and start to fade as well. “He can’t die! If he falls, then we’ll all die too! Sonic is the reason we’re all still in this cursed universe!” He slammed his hands down the earth, being on his stomach… “Everything falls on him!”

“… But… wouldn’t it be better if Chaos takes him too? We’d win something for a change!” The other Eggman, his Classic self, looked up after thinking.

Eggman shook his head, his shoulders bouncing as he held back tears. “You old fool… Sonic’s… he’s everything to every world…” his tears started to float upwards.

“This world is dying and falling apart because the central life source of all order is being destroyed. If Sonic goes, the main Sonic, then we’ll all go with it!”

Sonic was plunged down, away from the light source taking Amy, who had already lost consciousness. “S…Sonic….” Only an arm and half her face remained.

“NO!” Sonic grabbed a fragment of the broken Emerald, and zoomed back up through the pillar of light. He jumped into the path of Chaos power, feeling himself rip away and leaving what was left of Amy unharmed.

His eye twitched, feeling memories being destroyed simultaneously as his body began to flake off in little ashes of light.

“He’s halting the process of her being erased… causing all of us to suffer instead of just one.” Eggman retorted as he looked up, seeing Sonic’s mouth open and head dip at the pain.

He then swung his body up, closing his mouth to try and keep it together, fighting against it.

“He’s a fool…” Eggman stated…

“We’re all fools..” Classic Eggman hung his head, seeing the spaceship fail and the aliens start to disappear one by one… then the universes as each emerald shard broke into further pieces and turned into light.

“…We’ve split ourselves to the whims of so many designs and ideas…” Classic Eggman looked over the expanse of all the crippling universes. “Time and time again… loved, rejected, remade. An endless cycle and for what? Trying to look good in front of critics on the small, square screens in their living rooms.”

“What?” Eggman turned to Classic, who laughed and smiled.

“Nevermind, you. First, let’s do what must be done!” He turned to Sonic. “We need that emerald shard!”

Sonic refused to step aside and let the last piece of Amy die, and so, the Eggmans, with the help of Tails, got the emerald from him and got another Sonic to use Chaos control.

With the small sliver of hope left, they used Chaos’s last amount of harnessed energy to go back in time to the exact moment the other Eggman contacted the alien race.

Stopping him, they fled out of existence.

The northern lights whipped and spiraled around Chaos’s ultimate form being unleashed from the now non-existence Master Emerald, and before the entirety of the combined universes were destroyed, they sucked into him and stopped him from his ultimate revenge.

-After the great light that restored balance to the universes-

Sonic was running, carefree as usual through the nature-trimmed scenery and life of his world, before feeling an awful spark of light burst in his chest.

“Ah!” he gripped the area and swerved on his figure-eight step.

He skid to a halt before looking down, flexing his hand and then looking confused.

“…What was…” He felt a profound need to check on Amy… “That..?”

Worried, and with a strange sense of purpose, Sonic burst towards Amy’s home.

As if by no accident, she was home and about to cook something before startled by a fierce set of knocks on the door.

“W-who’s that?” She wasn’t expecting Sonic to impatiently walk in after she opened the door and look around, surveying her home as if expecting trouble.

“Sonic..!” She exclaimed, happy to see him. “….Sonic?” she then lost some of her enthusiasm by his strange behavior. “What-?” she stepped forward before he turned around and embraced her.

“…..Sorry.” he pulled away, and put his hands to his hips, looking away. “That was… strangely involuntary.”

Amy blinked her eyes, so he continued as he tried to hide away his shame at the random action.

“I.. Um…” he fought with the truth, and how much to tell her about the strange burst of light from his chest…

He scratched his nose and hid his whole face, not daring to allow her to see the faint shy pink under his eyes and on the very tips of his muzzle… “I just felt a really deep longing to… to see you.”

“…Pfft!” she tried to keep her mouth shut.

He flinched, and with total embarrassment, refused to turn back and look her in the eyes.

“Ah-ha-ha-ha! Can that happen more often?” Amy laughed, just letting out the pent-up surprise she had felt, before waving to him to stop acting so estranged and look back at her. “Honestly, I thought for a second you had a nightmare or something.”

“…It felt similar to that… I guess.” He looked down at his chest.

“Well! I’m glad you were worried about me. Even enough so to come check on me. Makes a girl feel special, you know? Hehe!” She cutely put her hands behind her, resisting the urge to make a marriage proposal, seeing as he was pretty overcome at the moment…

Sonic moved the couch, faintly hearing Amy mention something about dinner being made anyway, before his mind flashed to a fading memory…

He saw himself holding Amy, his head dipped with tears, teeth grinding against each other. He heard the deafening cry of his head lifting back and declaring her name again and again in hysteria. It was as if he was repeating it to not forget it.

But as the body he clung to disappeared in light, his breath caught off and he closed his mouth, unable to remember the name he was begging not to go away.

The Sonic looked strange, as if not truly himself…

The image faded into light as this Sonic rose his head back into his reality.

The last thing Sonic could remember was Amy asking him if he was spacing out, and him trying to play it off as just a ‘spur of the moment’ ordeal…

Amy bought it well enough… but all through dinner he was silent. Relishing in her voice. Her company soothing him for some unknown reason. And then…

Feeling like a thousand thanks, from small whispers all throughout the galaxy…. We’re thanking him for not stepping aside.

“…Strange.” Sonic finally spoke, still chewing some ham from his sandwich.

“Huh?” Amy peeked up, about to take a bite of her own meal.

“Hmm?” He blinked to her again.

“Ugh… Soooonic… Are you ignoring me again?”

He swallowed, smiling sheepishly.

“Ohhh!!! You really need to learn to listen when you’re so silent! Geez!” she puffed up the side of her cheek. “After bursting in here acting like I had died or something, you’d think you’d act a little more considerate!”

Amy jolted at his chair scooting back with a sharp noise that pierced the air, and his hand smashing down on the table.

“No! Anything but that!”

….The sound rippled through time itself.

Amy stared… “I.. I was just joking.” Her ears bent back slightly…

‘W…Where did that come from?’

Sonic thought as his eyes shook.

Amy then gasped.

“Sonic!” she cried out.

“You’re crying!”

(This coincides with my ‘Sonic universes’ theory and idea I mentioned in another prompt. I’m sorry, but I needed my closure lol! -cries-)

Hey I saw your tags, & I was just wondering what is racist in su & gf? I'm just genuinely curious!

Well first of all sorry about the late reply i've been pretty busy! Second of all this might be a pointless reply, considering these fandoms, but fuck it. Stevies university and its fandom loves to preach itself as being diverse and woke yet does the same stuff that other fandoms do. Remember when Garnet or Amethyst got an arc for themselves? Me neither. Literally they're both "fusion" and the "fat friend" at this point. Both get little to no development for themselves which becomes ridiculous when theres been an interesting amount of focus and detail concerning Pearl. The Sardonyx arc, you know the arc which should have shown that Garnet is allowed to show that she can be vulnerable and that hurting others has consequences, was established as a Pearl arc. Literally it focused on the one that caused said problem instead of the one that got hurt when it shouldve focused on both atleast. Its also interesting how Garnet was stoic and silent when she was Darker in season 1 yet after her immediate regeneration in the end of the season she becomes lighter and more open. It probably wasnt intentional, considering Garnet got some growth by the season to become more open since Stevie met her halves, but its a tiring trope or "Stoic black woman finally gets to have a personality out of being serious and strong" which lasted a season. By season 3 shes literally the fusion friend. Aka the only episodes where she gets some focus are concerning fusion, which isnt wrong considering she is one, but it gets ridiculous not giving her anything else to work for. Amethyst was used as a "self hate" trope, which was great initially however it got repetitive and nothing was truly done. Remember season 3 when Amethyst was like "i hate myself thx Jasper" and Stevie was like "i hate myself too ok" and had a episode dedicated to it. It didnt seem necessary to have a competition on who hates themselves more when they could've, oh i dont know, learn and show compassion to one another as well as understanding each others. While it isnt exactly racism, i just dislike how the emotions in this show is just cry cry and we never mention it ever again. "Bismuth" was a display of "angry black woman' considering Bismuth wanted to kill a dictator and Stevie was like "b-hut th' hat'll make us just as bad l1ke them!!!1" and then Bismuth got poofed for wanting to kill dictators cause she was black and mean :// i get the whole "she tried to kill stevie" she thought he was rose and before anyone says "still murder tho" well ya faves Pearl Lapis and Peridot did the same shit too while the big bad butches Bismuth and Jasper suffer forever :). "Earthings" was a favorite of mine but I thought it used Smoky Quartz at the wrong time. Like the episode literally says that Amethyst could never beat Jasper no matter how she tries which really wasnt a good lesson tbh "hard work doesnt pay off, genetics does!!". Smoky was formed from a emotional bond which was nice but i thought it wouldve been better if Amethyst had accepted stevies help and that they could be fucks up together and said fusion would happen naturally instead of using fusion as just "wow we cant do shit on our owns :/// thanks rock genetics". The rubies literally got left in space to die when they were so easy to dispatch and Steven pulled the "i wanted to help eyeball" while he left the other 4 rubies to die instead of giving them a chance since wow they're??? Their own gems and deserve a chance. Said fandom demonized Navy and called her a sociopath for gaining Stevie's and the barn lesbians trust and taking the ship. These were some detailed reasons why the fandom and show seem hypocritical when they pull their "we care about diveristy but we aint gonna bother showing it" aka if youre not white coded rip you. Connie and Lars' heritage? Not necessary since theyre not white lol. Lars got a confirmed race like 4 episodes before he became pink so if we hadn't seen him before he got pink then we wouldve never known since he wouldnt look like a poc and he doesnt talk about his heritage so he wouldnt sound like one either. The fandom was also like "omgggg look at this one pic of Connie's mom wearing Indian clothes" while refusing the claim that we dont need to hear about anyone's heritage since it isn't "realistic" for POC to talk about it. Interestingly, most white fans say this claim hmm. Blue Diamond had some concerns syrrounding whitewashing, which appears to be due to lighting/ not official design. The problem was that BD was shown to be crueler in Season 2 when she was going to kill Ruby for doing her job. Yet by her official appearance she's neon, looks white despite the Indian asthethic vibe displayed on "The Return" and her display on the Moon, and sad cause her co-worker/ gf died or some shit despite Becky Sugar saying that BD was supposed to be a representation of homophobia. A stupid trope where the homophobe was just a closeted gay. She also became so sad and gay that the fandom woobified her to being a innocent gem despite being a dictator, trying to murder a main character, owning a human zoo. The show also made her cry like 99% to make you feel sad for her cause oh no how dare our white saviour Rose Quartz murder a dictator. This also brought a stupid belief of Steven that "the diamonds woildnt be here if it wasnt for my mom !!! Fuck her" considering killing PD looks like it was the only good thing Rose has done and like out of all the things steven has a right to be mad about it was about his mom killing a dictator??? Also Amethyst's and a Gem named Concrete had their own racist beta designs. Amethyst had a chola design and Concrete, a literal black coded gem that couldnt read (an advanced alien species and the only one that cant read is the black gem?),were displayed on the art books because the crewniverse doesnt really consider the racism that theyve displayed for children to see. This show has a lot of problems and its still good, could be a whole lot better if some issues were addressed, but considering the writers and fandom refuse to address any criticism by using the "its a show for kids!!!1) says the 30 year old white gay on tunglr. Org who praises stevies university for being woke!!1 and having a gay couple. Jeez this got long but I just think its hypocritical that everyone praises this show for barely doing the bare minimum yet refuses to address any problems.While I havent watched the whole show, Gravity falls has displayed a lack of POC in their whole show. While it is a small city, it became interesting that a lot of POC were in prison.

20) Do you believe in ghosts? How about aliens?

21) Stick your right arm out; what do you touch first? Do the same with your left arm.

22) Smell the air. What do you smell?

Idk what it is, but it’s got a slightly sweet smell. I think it’s Raspberry Jam.

23) What’s the worst place you have ever been to?

One of the worst places I’ve been was probably the wake of my baby niece when I was real small. I can’t remember anything else.

24) Most attractive singer/s of your opposite gender?

The most attractive male singers I’ve ever heard sing are obviously Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki.

25) To you, what is the meaning of life?

Idk about meaning, I don’t know if life has a meaning. I do think everyone has a purpose though.

26) Do you drive? If so, have you ever crashed?

I don’t drive yet. Too lazy to get my permit lol as well as the fact that where I live you have to log 100 hours behind the wheel with an adult present in order to get your license unless you’re 18, I am not.

27) What was the last movie you saw?

I’m watching Moana right now.

Supernatural, Tumblr, writing, singing, Disney Movies, the ocean, Jared Padalecki/Sam Winchester, acting.

30) Ever had a rumor spread about you?

Yep

31) Do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?

I hold grudges for a while, but after so long it gets tiring and pointless. However, if one does not seek forgiveness before I get tired of holding a grudge, they will be cut out of my life. I don’t need that negativity just because you’re too full of yourself to apologize for whatever you did.

32) What is your astrological sign?

Sagittaius

33) What’s the last thing you purchased?

I purchased a thing of Ocean themed earrings.

Love

Yeah, with Netflix.

36) How many relationships have you had?

None

37) What is your secret weapon to get someone to like you?

I am very good at reading people, so I lay low for a while and watch. Once I get a good feel for someone I can adjust my personality to fit theirs. It’s why I get along with so many different kinds of people.

38) Where is your best friend?

I have a few. One of them is an entire state away. One of them lives 5 minutes from me, the other two live about 20-25 minutes from me. At this moment, I don’t know specifically where any of them are.

39) What were you doing last night at 12 AM?

Sleeping

40) Are you the kind of friend you would want to have as a friend?

Yeah, sometimes.

41) You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?

Save the dog. I’ll explain it to my boss and if they fire me I can find a new job. I can always find a new job, but that one life is the only one the dog will get. Also, I’m just a big softy.

42) You are at the doctor’s office and she has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. a) Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? b) What do you do with your remaining days? c) Would you be afraid?

(a) I don’t think I would tell anyone, at least not immediately. I wouldn’t want to be treated like I’m dying during my last days. I suppose I could tell a few very close people though, I just don’t want to be smothered.

(b) I would drop all the unnecessary responsibilities I have and start doing things that I want to do, but subtly. Still don’t want to be treated like I’m dying.

© I don’t know if I would be afraid. I like to think I wouldn’t, I might just be more sad than afraid. Sad to think about my friends and family having to live without me, sad I won’t get to do half the things I always dreamed of doing.

43) What’s a song that always makes you happy when you hear it?

“Brother” - NEEDTOBREATHE ft. Gavin DeGraw

“Simple Man” - Cover by Jensen Ackles

44) In your opinion, what makes a great relationship?

A great romantic relationship should consist of communication, understanding, and honesty. Boundaries should be respected, you should always admit when you are wrong and never leave the house or go to sleep mad at each other. The mindset should be best friends before lovers. You should always want what is best for your partner, but always remember to care for yourself too.

45) How can I win your heart?

It’s pretty easy. If you can make me laugh, but also take part in a deep, soul-searching conversation we’re practically married.

46) Can insanity bring on more creativity?

Absolutely

47) What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far?

The single best decision I’ve made in my life so far was learning to take care of me first.

48) What would you want to be written on your tombstone?

“Don’t worry bitches, I’ll be back.” Probably not that, but I think it would be funny. Maybe something more like “Here lies: Your mom…. lol jk it’s just me, [insert full name]”

49) Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “heart.”

All that came to mind was Sam Winchester. *shrug*

50) Basic question; what’s your favorite color/colors?

Green

51) What is your current desktop picture?

A sea turtle

52) If you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be?

I’d say probably this kid named Billy who goes to my church. If you met him you would know why.

53) What would be a question you’d be afraid to tell the truth on?

Oh god, okay well a lot of the time I would be afraid to tell the truth when people ask me if I’m okay. lol but don’t go asking me if I’m okay or anything after you read this cause that’s not cool.

54) You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What is that power?

Oh, hell yeah, I would totally want super strength or laser eyes.

55) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again?

I think I would relive the half-hour chunk of time from my 5th birthday party when me and my best friend at the time were outside in the cold November fog riding a miniature pony. There were other kids there, but only her and I were excited about it and I would honestly give anything to go back a relive that innocent bliss.

56) You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be?

I think I would erase having to lose my horse just March of this year.

57) You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. Who would it be?

I would probably sleep with Demi Lovato or Sabrina Carpenter. This is kind of a hard question because usually I only know singers for their music, not their looks or anything.

58) You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go?

Obviously, I’d go to see my soulmate. Although, I would have to be strategic about this. I think i would drive to go get her and then buy her ticket (bc mine’s free) and we’d go see mom. ( @assbutt-still-in-hell )

59) Ever been on a plane?

No, I don’t really want to, but I probably will at some point.

60) Give me your top 5 hottest celebrities.

1. Jared Padalecki

2. Jensen Ackles

3. Misha Collins

4. Gal Gadot

5. Ian Somerhalder (and Genevieve Padalecki, why tf do I only get 5????)

What can I say except you’re WELCOME! Thanks for the questions, they only took me an hour and half to do lol.
