I can't work out if Alastor genuinely considered Vox a friend or thought of him more as like. A cute pet that dotes on its owner and does little tricks. And then he shows off his cute little pet to Rosie and Mimzy. I don't think he ever viewed Vox as a threat to him in any way, but it makes me wonder about Vox's whole smooth, smart, scary and competent side we initially see in episode 2. Was that something he picked up from Alastor, or was it something Vox already had that might have sparked Alastor's interest? Did he actually mentor Vox in any way or did he just think it was fun to watch him try to build a tiny version of Alastor's empire.
we don't have a whole lot to go off of right now, especially when it comes to alastor's side, but personally I find it more interesting if alastor did genuinely consider vox a friend. even if in his own alastor fashion, there were probably certain walls he never let down. I think it's interesting in that, we know alastor has more of a soft spot for women, so in this pre-husk era, vox could've easily been one of his first few male friends. which kinda makes it sadder it didn't work out. it's like it just proved to alastor "right this is why I don't trust men".
things we know rn are:
alastor calls vox "old pal" at the end of episode 2
alastor allowed vox to take a picture with him at some point
alastor, who is perfectly capable of killing overlords, has not killed vox
also seen this pointed out before, but in the initial commercial alastor filmed in episode 1, although shitty, he did do some actual editing
Tumblr media
I wouldn't expect alastor to already have knowledge of how to do this beforehand on his own, question is: did he learn it himself? or did he learn it...
Tumblr media
...from someone else in the past?
Tumblr media
not to mention he seems to just instinctively already know how to set up shit for filming near the end of the episode. he must have gotten some experience from somewhere.
I think this post describes what they could've learnt from each other in the past best
I like to think alastor saw him as more than just some cute pet, at least back then. it adds more depth to their relationship. obviously there's stuff like the toxic homoerotic stalker-like obsession I feel is one-sided on vox's part (points to my url), but that doesn't mean I think alastor's side of their general relationship is completely non-existent. them having a genuine past friendship that affected both of them in different ways is what adds layers to their relationship I think. they were clearly both affected by their falling out in that they both developed irrational hatred of the other's medium as a result. and honestly? really need to see more of alastor's side of this, I think it'd be really interesting. even though, he hates vox now, and I don't believe he wants him back as a friend, is there any sort of sentiment left from their past friendship? is there a reason why he hasn't killed him? or was the time he almost beat vox an attempt at that? (though I like to believe it wasn't)
obviously, all we can do now is speculate based on the evidence we have in season 1, but for me personally, I like to think they were legitimately friends at some point.

locked tomb characters ranked by how cringe they are
because this post by @wifegideonnav reminded me that they’re all losers, but some are even more losers than the others
Hot Sauce: 1/10. This girl is cool in all possible ways and definitely future lead researcher material. No cringe, zero notes.
Pyrrha: 2/10. By far the least cringe of The Olds. Yes her nicknames for Nona have dad joke energy but she’s very earnest about it and it’s cute.
Juno Zeta: 2/10. Total MILF. Very smart and should know better than to get flirty with We Suffer, but I get it.
Marta Dyas: 3/10. A complete badass with a very sensible outlook on avoiding unnecessary forms. Call me Judith because I would also make a pass at her at the first possible chance.
Commander Wake: 3/10. She made Pyrrha fall in love with her, seduced ever-loyal G1deon into hatefucking and galvanized a dying resistance movement. She was genuinely nice to Gideon those 3 seconds they interacted in passing! Then she had to go and hide under the bed of a mentally ill teenager.
Dulcinea: 4/10. Her horniness for revenge is epic. Let down Pal as nicely as she could and managed to outwit Cytherea when it mattered. Not cringe at all.
Camilla: 4/10. Yes, she could kill you in seconds but she did once sell cigarettes, her most liquid asset, for about a third of their market value.
Alecto: 4/10. Scary eldritch woman-shaped creature with a sword, comes highly recommended by Pyrrha Dve. Loses points for confusing Middle English and thinking John was the best possible Sailor Earth when he was clearly the worst.
G1deon: 5/10. Utterly willing to burn for what he believes in. Yes, he probably needs some perspective but he made sure the baby had enough air before kicking Wake out of the airlock and Matthias Nonius thinks he’s an okay dude.
Pash: 5/10. She has that freedom fighter swag and the cool hair but she is a terrible bodyguard coasting on nepotism, sorry to say.
Palamedes: 6/10. He didn’t clock the serial killer pretending to be his ex because he was too busy going to painfully extreme lengths to avoid interacting with her.
Naberius: 6/10. My controversial opinion is that Babs is the least cringe of the Third House throuple. Yes he looks and acts like a peacock but he puts up with Corona snacking on him for no reason and is still nice to her, and gives Ianthe solid romantic advice.  
Nona: 6/10. Cringe in the unselfconscious way of a young teenager, and put this ability to use making Pal fess up to his nurse kink. She will never be cool but it’s part of her appeal.
Mercymorn: 7/10. Speaks in onomatopoeias. She knows she is insufferable so she’s gonna do her best to make sure to be the most insufferable person in every room. Once called John Gaius “the best man I who ever lived” to his smug face and not even blowing him up later makes up for that.
Ianthe: 7/10. Looks like a wet rat. Hopelessly dramatic but she pulls it off. Declares her love for Harrow at every turn in the most transparent possible way then pretends she’s just being snarky. Some cool points for actually getting shit done
Coronabeth: 7/10. Terrible taste in love interests. Her freedom fighter era was hot but she thinks pompadour hair is a good look? Also, the way she spent her whole life lying about necromancy speaks of extreme conflict avoidance. Cringe move.
Judith: 7/10. She deserved to suffer and has suffered more than she deserves. It’s cringe how she clings to her imperialist brainwashing but she gets a point for rightfully understanding she should be wary of Corona, something Ianthe still can’t even grasp.
Ortus: 7/10. Yes he quotes his own epic poetry WIP at people but he also had to grow up on the Ninth with nothing better to do. Genuinely a very nice guy.
Cytherea: 8/10. Her unhinged vibes are very hot but she killed a couple of nerds and two teenagers instead of anyone who was actually dangerous. Cringe of her!
Silas: 8/10. Smarmy cloud-looking motherfucker. He is a child Pope and I guess he can’t help the inherent cringe of the Eight. But that’s still no excuse for bringing a portrait of John all the way to Canaan House just to hang it in your bedroom, dude.
Gideon: 8/10. Babygirl is a horny virgin with the vocabulary of a nerd. Harrow is bones over tit in love with her and she fails to notice after living in Harrow’s brain for eight months. Gets points for managing to maintain impressive biceps on a diet with no protein.
Augustine: 9/10. Extremely cringe because of how hard he tries to pretend he’s not cringe. Cigarettes on a space station and effectively performing swag don’t make up for how much he clearly wants to suck John’s dick. Which he did at least twice.
Harrow: 10/10. Spent most of her life being mean to Gideon because she was too hot to deal with and lobotomized a coffee shop AU into existence. Thinks Ianthe Tridentarius is beautiful. Once built a bone cocoon to sleep in after not drinking water for two days. Should’ve told God months ago that she just didn’t want to eat his fucking biscuits and stop offering.
John: 10/10. Unfortunately, this scale only goes up to 10 but we all know it’s not enough. Deeply cringe in a myriad of ways, chiefly among them the way he inflicts his barely veiled incest kink on all his friends. That one dad joke was gold, though.
This was getting too long but for the record: Aiglamene is cool and so is Abigail Pent. Magnus is not cool but he’s a fun time. The Terrible Teens are exempt from judgement on account of being 14.

Hey Melody,
That last request was so good. Can you write one where the reader takes Spencer home to meet her family? He's super awkward and smart like he always is. Love you so much! Thanks for being great!!!!!!
Hiii!! Of course your wish is my command!! Idk why but recently ive been writing longer fics, so i hope you enjoy! 💞
Summary: you're taking spencer to meet your family and hes smart and awkward and adorable. Your family loves him.
Fem!reader x spencer reid
Word count: 1.1k
Today is the day you would be taking Spencer to meet your big family. You’re somewhat nervous (almost having a panic attack) because your family can get a little crazy. Nothing harmful, necessarily, but they get excited about things like this. When your brother had brought his girlfriend home they threw a party, ribbons, streamers, gifts, games and so much more. Your brother wouldn’t be coming though, he had work. You’ve already told Spencer all of this and he thought it was sweet. You noticed he was a bit nervous too.
“You okay sweetheart?” You ask while walking up behind him. He’s fixing his tie in the mirror. With a deep breath he says, “Yeah, just a little nervous. Are you sure they’ll like me? I mean you’re you and I'm just me.” 
“Yeah and you know what? You’re the best person I've ever met and - might I mention, the love of my life. They’re gonna love you just as much as I do.”  you reply back.
He smiles as you lean over and kiss him on the cheek.
“Okay, let’s go?” He says.
“Mhm.”
You walk out hand in hand and begin the drive. Even though you know how awkward Spencer is, you know your family will love him nonetheless. Arriving at your family’s house, you park, then step out. Spencer gives you a nervous smile before you whisper,
“It’ll be okay, trust me.” While you hold out your hand. He takes it and gestures to you to walk toward the door, you do. With a simple knock the night has begun. The door opens and you’re both greeted by your mother,
“Oh hi! You must be Spencer- I’ve heard such great things about you!” She says while wrapping him into a mom hug. You could see his arms try and figure out where to go. They land awkwardly on her upper-back and he gives her a gentle ‘pat pat’. After the strange hugs come to an end Spencer gives her that clumsy nervous smile he always gives and says,
“Yeah! And I-I’ve heard such good things about you as well. Thank you for letti- uhm inviting me Mrs.!” 
your mother gestures for him to continue along in the house. He looks to you for the look of approval. You smile and walk with him into the living room. You stop dead in your tracks and see that there's ribbons. There's streamers, and THERE IS a BALLOON WITH ‘Welcome to the family, Spencer!’ ON IT!
 You blurt out, “Oh my god, mom! You did not have to do all this!”
“Well, of course I did, honey, this is important.” She laughs.
You shake your head and mutter, “You seriously didn’t.” under your breath.
Spencer smiles and looks at you. You have a look that says ‘sorry my parents are insane.’ 
He shakes his head and whispers, “It's okay, you aren’t gonna scare me away with balloons and ribbons.”
You smile and nod. Your dad walks up to Spencer while holding out his hand, Spencer hesitantly shakes it and tries to be as firm as possible, clearly. 
“Spencer! How are ya?” He says while making scary eye contact with him.
Spencer looks like he’s trying to find words and lands on, “Uhm yeah I’m good, great.”
Your dad gives him a death stare, then guffaws and almost shouts, “HAH! Got ya pal! I’m just kidding! Thanks for coming. You know she really is crazy about you. She keeps having like- hour long phone calls with her mother in the middle of the night, all to talk about you!” 
Spencer looks surprised and smiles at you. But he can see you're already giving your dad a mean glare. He can tell you’re joking but, not fully.
Next are your aunties, who seem to be darting directly toward you and Spencer. You can’t avoid what's about to happen.
“Spencer of my gosh you are so handsome!” your first aunty says while cupping his cheeks and then finally, giving the boob-smothering aunty hug and finishing him off with the not-so-subtle cheek kiss. Spencer barely makes it out and you can tell. 
“Nice to meet you too.” He says.
Your other aunty just seemed to be entertained by her wine glass so you take that as an escape. You grab Spencer by the hand and go towards your parents. But get caught many times by different family members. With lots of cousin hugs and aunty kisses later, Spencer faintly seems to be surviving. Though, occasionally you give him an ‘are you okay?’ look that he always nods at.
“Can we eat now?” You quip with a pleasant smile. Now finally infront of your parents.
Your mom, standing next your dad, says, 
“ Of course! Dinner is ready and we wouldn’t want it to get cold, follow me.”
And we follow her, which lands us sitting at the dining table. You get up to go help your mother, which follows by her pleading that you sit back now. With not too much of a fight, you oblige. You smile at Spencer, he smiles back. You hold his hand under the table. Your mother begins to bring out an entire roast chicken. With mashed potatoes and so much more. You begin to feel hungry, like really hungry. You’d always loved your moms cooking and right now it felt like a necessity to devour it, and you did. You were honestly too busy eating to notice Spencer talking. 
“And also 88% of Americans regularly partake in family dinners, 59% of families dine together at least five times weekly. And more generally, 84% of parents agreed that family meals were important but only 50% of family dinners were eaten together.”
You look up at him and can see that your parents eyes are darting in between Spencer and each other. All of your cousins, aunts, and uncles stare at him. 
“Wow! I mean honey you told me he was smart but I didn’t know you meant a walking encyclopaedia!” Your mother looks at you and laughs.
Your dad smiles and adds, “Way to go kid!”
Everyone makes sweet remarks and begs him to tell them about random topics regarding their lives.
Spencer smiles at them and then at you. You all spend the rest of the night listening to Spencer's occasional genius blabber, your parents' corny jokes, you laughing at them, your uncle's bold jokes, and your aunt's wine glass clinking against yours. As the night comes to an end, you and Spencer are standing at the door, saying your goodbyes.
“You are just great together! It was a pleasure meeting you Spencer.” Your mother says, giving him yet another mom hug, but definitely not the last one. And your dad walks up to Spencer, pats him on the shoulder and says, “You really are a special kid, glad you two found each other.” 
You're surprised to hear that coming from your dad, and you give him a reassuring look that he knows is a, ‘thank you.’ 
“It was great to meet you guys too. I look forward to seeing you both again.” Spencer promises.
You smile, giving your parents more goodbyes and hugs. With the shut of the door the night ends. 
You both walk out, hand in hand. Smiling at each other and giggling.
“How’d I do?” Spencer asks.
“You were perfect, absolutely perfect.”

my brain is trying to shift to melodie mode. me kicking it back. sidequests for osisa? how does he take the daydreaming one...?
oh. oh thats a fun question.
i am stealing from a concept you brought up once for osis because i think its fun. wherein isa seems to have a better understanding of the country than the average person? anyways.
isa is. perceptive. incredibly so! perhaps not as perceptive as m'dame odile, but he still thinks hes pretty smart!
so. so.
when the daydreaming one in dormont keeps flipping between having a sister and not. with all the dots hes connected about the country the world forgot. he asks about it.
and... the world.....
corrects.
she doesnt remember her own sister. isabeau thinks about his own siblings. he knows them all. he counts them up, names them all. names them all. he names all of them - right?
he. um. he has some theories to talk about with elle.
... he doesnt really talk to that person much anymore.
on a more lighthearted note!!! he reads all of the cursing of chateau castle!!! and he really likes it! to the point he kinda forgets to report back to the book loving one for a bit, heh.
and isa and the stylish one are friends. mira fan number one (they share). hes used to people thinking hes a little scary sometimes because hes so big. pals!!!!!

HAHA very very Very true. im too much of a fan of like. either the kind but Horribly Repressed characters or like. the ones that are like. unassuming but Scary AF. esp if theres crazed devotion involved... my choice of characters is far too predictable LMAO but no yeah i absolutely love otto for the reasons you stated yeah. it was wild bc i predicted a lot of the arc 8 stuff before it really blew up around ch24!! i was like dipping my toes into researching otto side content when arc 7 was still ongoing and then i kept noticing little details right? like "this man is mentally ill lmao and a little crazy about subaru but its not That bad rn..." and then i wrote a fic where otto goes feral with a pal of mine (you know who you are) in like 2022 i think? AND THEN ARC 8 CAME IN AND HALF THE SHIT WE WROTE IN THAT FIC CAME TRUE.. LMAO T^T i remember after arc 8 i had to like reevaulate my perception of otto for sure. it was like "OH SHIT IM NOT EVEN EXTREME E N O U G H WHEN I TRY TO WRITE HIM IN FIC. HES CRAZY" (impressed). i always like the unhinged characters </3
anyway yeah thats my impromptu backstory behind me brainwashing myself into becoming a huge otto fan which was then propelled by not much english content :<<<< i love how fucking crazy he is. what a guy. hes very very deceptively complicated. the dude that katy perry sings about in her hit song "hot n cold" is otto suwen. i know this bc she told me so.

Watched a really nice video about Island of the Slaughtered and in order to free my mind from it, I'll rant about it and give some headcanons
TRIGGER WARNING for death, torture, ghosts/malevolent spirits, light SA mention/talk at the very end (it'll be in bold to be easier to notice! It starts after "Based on your thoughts about Heather, the text will take on new meanings yet work").
So, it's rare for writing to scare me. However, for some reason, this did give me a fright. Maybe the way the YouTuber read it, or perhaps the music and ambiance he added, is why I was hyper-vigilant while showering but the concept itself is terrifying when you think about it. 15 people died! You'd think that the kill count would stop, that they would survive for longer, but they don't. Even smart or athletic characters get caught... And for the dumbest reasons. Exactly like teenagers. They all make mistakes yet, somehow, this is barely their fault. They couldn't have planned it. They couldn't have known. The killer is almost omnipotent, it's like they can smell whenever there's an opportunity. They don't seize the simple moments of weakness (like how they didn't keep watch or, at least, only had one person which is exactly how Harold managed to sneak out and get killed), they wait until they can get that perfect chase or opportunity to torture the campers.
I feel like the sheer number of victims is what gets me. It's so easy to assume that they're all competent enough to survive a little longer. What makes it hit harder is that the last footage of those poor teens is the beginning of TTI up to Ezekiel's death. Imagine seeing the beginning of a horror movie composed of your loved ones and not knowing how it ended or, worse, learning that they were a victim, brutally killed, and you can't even have the body back. A whole month. That's how long it took for someone to go help them. Everyone knew. And no one did anything. Fucking Chris McLean ended up doing it. The same man who abandoned them, got them into this mess, and refused to say where the island was located.
Now, some headcanons before I overthink two of the deaths:
The canon serial killer and the one in this AU cohabit in the island. Maybe on good terms too. Our buddy with the hook and the chainsaw is just chilling, maybe helping out a little his mate, but enjoying the show. The chainsaw used for Heather might even be his! What a good pal.
The ghosts see each other as they were before their deaths. Be it that they're imagining it or that they can manifest a not-scary look. Owen and Geoff are forced to stay close but they really don't mind!
They don't really care for Chris's helpers. Sure, they were angry and disliked them, throughoutly tormenting them, but they weren't the target. They likely could have killed them, as the helpers probably accidentally broke some rules, but they were pawns to torment and scare Chris further. At some point, they begin to leave them alone as they realize that the helpers are their age... They're like them. Chris brought two more teenagers on an island with a serial killer, a monster who dismembered Ezekiel, with no experience and no actual weapons. Fuck, they're normal teens. What are they doing here?! This just angered the ghosts even more and cemented their desire to take revenge against Chris.
As long as Chris doesn't realize that he broke some rules, they let it go. Those are only here to scare him and make him squirm. To make him know that they're here at all times, watching, waiting for him to slip, loathing him.
While it's canon that the ghosts are fine with the survivors unless you've slighted them, they won't impose their rules and haunt you. They'll maybe taunt you and be here, reminding you that they died partly because of you, but they won't do much. For example, Trent will simply check in on Gwen. Her guilt is already enough and he doesn't have it in him to cause her more remorse. However, the sound of his voice as he sings into the night, kills her inside. He doesn't mean to but she's being eaten alive at not being able to get him out —even though she would have died with him if she stayed or manager to free him and they both know it. Noah, on the other hand, will glare at Duncan and make snippy remarks whenever he's trying to give out instructions. He'll question his choices and at every hint of annoyance, simply raise an eyebrow and in his classic tone say "really?" which guilts Duncan enough for his taste. He also chirps in when Duncan inevitably realizes that he was right about some of the directions, the bitter realization that they were both wrong and right about some things, that this was a misunderstanding and they were both too stubborn to work it out, that Noah could have survived if he hadn't been a jerk. All Noah had to say was "told you so" and Duncan would dig his nails into his palms at the cruelty he had displayed.
The reason why the ghosts didn't get the killer immediately is because they didn't know the limits to their powers and they were scared. Simple as that.
To add onto that, they used Chris as bait to make sure everyone else got out safe. They made Chris's death longer and more painful than anything they had gone through before immediately killing the murderer. That or they then tormented them until they died, either of natural causes or of fright.
Time for me to overthink two of the deaths!
My choice is Ezekiel and Heather. Ironically, they're the beginning and the end, both pictured as innocent and young.
Quick note for both of them but the ghosts may look like that because that was their last state as living. Yeah, I'm implying that they were dismembered alive.
Ezekiel:
I LOVE the writing for his discovery. It comes across as child-like, even when it comes to his corpse. You could say I love it to bits.
It's easy to forget that he was a sheltered kid after everything that happened in the canon. Here, he's portrayed as sweet and so, so much like a child. Someone who didn't deserve it.
He was an easy target. He might not even have noticed that anything was amiss until it was too late.
It would take time to find every part of his body. Did the crew search for him before setting off? I doubt it. They likely put things together quick and bailed, never finding his every piece.
A small detail that came up was that the hole Katie hid in might have been the one where his arm was. I like to think it was and she had to bite back her scream. The killer could have thought that they didn't need to search for her, she'd abandon her friend and get back to safety or if she didn't, she'd have screamed her head off at finding a rotting arm as she tried to hide.
His rule is the most interesting part to me. Chris will have to search for his body once but then he will simply have to run to them every time afterwards... And that's the last thing you want to do when there's a killer on the loose! It's also very, very fun for a video game. All the rules are! The art not being too scary either would make it very good. Anyhow!
If Chris needs to bring them back together, it's even more horrifying. Would he need to carry them with him in case Ezekiel wants to bother him? Do they go back to their original places and he needs to do everything every time?
Picture his voice. It isn't scary. Yet it would make it so much more eerie and unsettling. While true for every victim, his ghost doesn't even look scary. Again, it's child-like. And with everything else, it makes a wonderful picture.
Heather:
I love EVERYTHING about this one. The reference, the call backs to the canon... The writing!
I'll keep the latter for the end as it will tackle more sensitive content.
God, the way she's the last warning. Threatening. Vengeful. Exactly how she was in canon and how Chris perceived her.
The fact that she was found by the two most important people to her character! Iirc, Gwen found her head which is a shame since it's a reference to when Leshawna (sorry for the spelling guys) stuck her inside of the fridge.
The way she was grabbed by her ponytail! It's the way she wore her hair in latter seasons.
Off with her head for the queen bee. The stereotypical mean, popular girl.
Now for the writing: This was a straight-up call-out to her haters. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it directly calls Chris, and us, out. She was a kid. She was terrified, begging, small and alone as she was killed. It makes sure we get that. We know her as a mean girl but she was a girl. She didn't deserve it. The way her suffering was highlighted, showing that she was crying like a young kid, compared to the others' was well-written and hit harder than the rest. It can even imply that Heather pretended to be meaner than she was for the show. It's a valid theory for the canon, she was cunning and she knew it made her memorable. But that meant that Chris truly thought she was. Based on your thoughts about Heather, the text will take on new meanings yet work.
Last trigger warning for SA:
"She was pretty". Amazing. Perfect. That, by itself, tells me that the creator is a very good writer and knows how horror works.
Listen. Listen up well. The SA headcanon isn't bad. Is it gross? Yes. The entire AU is. SA is. However, we've grown desensitized to murder and gore. Not SA. It still feels horrible and outrageous. That's why it works and makes for good horror. BUT! The thing is not to overdo it. Not say too much, not use it too much. Especially not as a fetish.
Here, it's done perfectly. Yes, she's a minor. They all are and most got brutally murdered. So a creepy murderer isn't that bad.
The implications that he kept her head because he found her pretty are amazing. It makes her fate so much more tragic. It brings a new level of cruelty and disgusting to her death. We know that he doesn't have pure intentions. Just staring at her frozen head is horrible enough. We know the way he looks at her, how he sees her. It also raises the question why. Why her? Canonically, most of the girls are pretty. Lindsey, in particular, was the most beautiful. Was it because Heather cried and begged? Was it because he had disfigured the others before he could notice their looks? Is it because he found that "submitting her" made her better? (Which is incidentally a real thought process r*p*sts have. Some like to bring some people down a peg by doing those awful things, hating how they felt inferior because their poor victims didn't look at them or at the world "right".)
It's a real question and worry that this simple like brings. It brings a real, scary subject we aren't desensitized to just yet into this and enhances the horror. It doesn't say too much, it isn't insensitive. We won't ever know what the killer would/will do. We just know he's a vile piece of shit on every level.
It's also a huge contrast to how child-like Heather was described as and how it was hammered into our heads. It's said so simply, almost like another child would say. "Oh she's pretty". It isn't said in a gross way! That's very good writing. It keeps the same tone. It's almost eerie with how simple and factual it is.
That headcanon exists (and might be popular, I don't look at the fandom) because the line and implications are there. Horror should make you uncomfortable and that's what this does. Of course, personally, I wouldn't say the killer did anything. But, he might have planned to. He might have after the body was discovered. It wasn't like the campers had the time to bury their friends or would fathom that this monster thought Heather was pretty.
It all depends on the delivery and of course some edgelords will be insensitive and approach it terribly. I think the actual AU did it exactly how it should be done.
The entire Heather section was done as best as it could ever be.

How about Rocket being wholesome besties with a kid reader! Maybe they were also an experiment? I'd also find it an adorable dynamic if the reader isn't too smart academic wise, so they constantly ask for help with stuff like that
Rocket raccoon x Wrench platonic
Tumblr media
Anon.... anon... you have no idea how much I wanted to do this as well, I even had this planned as well before this was requested so FLARK YES I'm doing it !! *Happy noises* For this story, I'm going to go with an experiment reader who is a wolf and goes by the name of wrench *Courtesy of my friend's oc who will be credited as well and i got his permission* also I know you ask for points where the character is not as smart as rocket so he asks for help, I’ll make a part 2 to make up for it Word count:1.1k
Pain... Unbelievable pain, it was something you could never describe how painful it is. The needles. the knives... everything. Giving you the codename 90P13, tattooing it onto your chest. After it was over they tossed you into a cage. Not even being gentle with you. Looking around your surroundings it was scary...
Looking across your cage you saw a figure come to you. This made you even more scared.
"It's okay" She spoke to you softly "Your here with us now"
She seemed nice... But you were still scared.
"Hey, it's a new guy" Another creature spoke up, It had wheels attached to its sides and massive teeth. "What kind of thing are you ?? you got some sort of glowy eyes
"Eyes, face, mouth" Another creature who shared your cage curiously walked to you, it had six legs and a metal mouth. "Does it words ??"
"It's ok friend, Don't let them scare you" The nice creature spoke again.
One last creature came up to you. like the nice creature it was standing on it's two legs. It also looked like it had a mask on its face. "Are you ok pal ??" It spoke softly to you.
You continued to shudder, feeling overwhelmed by everything that had happened. You open your mouth and you shakenly say.
"H...H...Hurts..."
You were talking about your head, they did a lot of bad stuff which made it hurt really really bad.
The mask creature came up to you, dabbing his tongue on a cloth and ever so gently dabbed the blood away from your temple.
"It's ok, Your gonna be okay."
This tenderness was something you haven't felt in a while since it all began. Over time the 5 of you formed a close bond with each other, But you were the closest to the masked creature, You always played games with him, laughed with him and snuggled with each other when sleeping to be safe.
"It really is good to have friends"
One night after the masked creature came back from spending the day with the sire. He was telling everyone about how he saw the sky from outside.
"Is sky ??" The 6 legged creature asked about the ceiling being the sky.
"No, that's not sky. That's a ceiling. But sire's making a new world for all of us, and when we get there. There will be sky and it will be beautiful and forever.
"Wow" You all said, just already imagining seeing the sky. With your friends too. It would be very exciting.
"I have been thinking." The big teeth creature spoke up.
"'Bout what ??" The masked creature asked.
"Oh, Nothing in particular. But I thought, since you guys are my closest friends, and my only friends, You might be interested in knowing that I have been thinking."
"That's cool" You smiled. Looking up at the ceiling imagining the sky.
"I've been thinking too" The nice creature spoke. "About something more singular. When Sire moves us to the new world, we're gonna need names. I mean, 89Q12... It's not really a name. So I would like my name to be... Lylla."
"Lylla" All of you said agreeing to the name.
"That's a pretty name Lylla" The masked creature turned to her, smiling.
"Thank you" She smiled back.
"I think my name shall be teefs, because, although we all do have them, Mine are definitely the most prominent" The big teethed creature smiled.
Lylla and the masked creature giggled, agreeing with the name.
"Lylla"
"Teefs"
"Me be called floor, Because me is lying on floor." The 6 legged creature said.
"You're lying on a floor, so your name is floor ??" Lylla smiled
Everyone laughed, agreeing with the names before it was only you and the masked creature.
"I think... My name... shall be... wrench !!" You said confidently.
"Wrench" The masked creature said enthusiatically
"Because wrench's are tough and I'm tough"
"What about you friend ??" Lylla turned to the masked creature
"Someday, I'm gonna make great machines that fly, And me and my friends are gonna go flyin' together into the forever and beautiful sky. Lylla, and teefs, and floor, and wrench, and me... Rocket"
"Rocket" they all said softly.
"It really is good to have friends"
But it went to a huge downfall after. Rocket found out that Sire was never going to bring them outside. They were just mere tests, to create the perfect person. In the morning he plans to kill all of them, With quick thinking he starts to make a keycard and gets everyone out. But the High Evolutionary knew this would happen and killed all his friends. Angry and heartbroken, he lunged at him and scratched the scut out of his face, disfiguring him. He then managed to escape counter-earth, but at what cost.
Many years later.
Rocket was sitting on the steps of the Guardians base on Knowhere, they had recently just bought it off the collector and made it their permanent base. As Rocket was peacefully sitting there, listening to the Zune. He noticed a rather large figure not far off staring at him briefly. He noticed this person had. been here for almost a week and it started to creep him out. So with that he headed to the figure.
"Look pal I don't know where you are but quit staring at me before i blast ya into the next..."
He then noticed something vaguely familiar. Those eyes... he's seen them somewhere before.
"Have we met before ??"
The hooded figure then gently lifted the hood off his head, revealing it made rocket's eyes go wide. Growing teary eyed.
"Wrench ??"
"It's been a while rocket.."
"Oh my flark wrench !!!" Rocket lunged at him and hugged his neck tightly, his best friend was alive. He was alive !!!
"How.. how did you ??"
"Yeah... I've got a lot of explaining to do, can I get you a drink ??"
Upon the time they sit at the bar, Wrench explains that he faked his death during the whole shootout and escaped shortly after. Having to survive on his own, he changed a lot physically and mentally.
"And then once I heard about the heroes of xandar, I saw you on the holo tv."
Wrench took another sip of his drink and sighed dejectedly.
"I'm really sorry buddy, I didn't mean to cause you this much hurt on you. I wanted to find you as soon as I was out. But I was so scared that he would find me..."
Rocket took another sip of his drank and gently rubbed his forearm.
"I... I understand why, But I'm slightly mad... and... aah just a bunch of mushy stuff I can't try and explain."
Wrench chuckled.
"Can... I make up all that lost time ??"
He waited patiently for an answer until Rocket twitched a smile. Wrench knew he had a lot of time to make up for Rocket. But for Rocket, he was just glad that he had his best friend back. His bested friend in all of the galaxy.

Class of Heroes - Lil’ Heroes (Part 1)
Screw it, here’s a weird lil thing where all the Heroes are toddlers. Yeah, it’s like a magical daycare.
Marilan: A little fighter who always carries around her toy sword. She’s a bit clumsy, but a true warrior. Loves playing with fireworks.
AdriPunzel: The prince of Corona, who was almost kidnapped by Gabriel Gothel. A cheery boy with hair that can heal booboos with a song he learned.
TiAlya: A kid who loves to cook and act like an adult. She likes making pretend food for her friends. Keep frogs out of the daycare, she’s been known to turn them into princes with her kiss.
Fairy GodBro: This tiny fairy is only a toddler, but he’s already learning how to make his friends happy with wishes. Poor guy keeps losing his wand. He always likes to help out CinderZoe and AdriPunzel with their struggles.
Maxiro: Though he’s only an infant, Max is a genius with a love for making toy robots. Has a stuffed animal called Markov. Loves to hang with his older cousin.
Alladix: This cute troublemaker is always one jump ahead of the teachers. Always nabbing toys and candy to share with her fellow toddlers.
Kimules: The demigod son of Zeus and Hera. Kim was stripped of most of his godliness by Hades, so he’s just a really strong toddler. A happy and sporty little boy who sometimes doesn’t know his own strength.
AriOndine: The youngest daughter of King Arturo. A curious and bright little ball of sunshine who’s excited to meet new friends on the surface. Still has trouble with walking, not just because used to have fins, but because she’s also a toddler. Her and Kim are in an adorable “puppy-love” relationship.
MarcElsa: A timid and smart little prince with the power of creating ice. He likes scribbling nonsense (which he thinks is writing) and playing with his best friend, Nath. (He’s the one who always helps put Nath to sleep with his cold hands.) He loves creating snowmen who can give him warm hugs.
Sleeping Nath: A quiet prince who’s always doodling and finger painting. Due to a curse, Nath gets very sleepy and will randomly nod off during daycare. For him, it’s always naptime. He’s really scared of spinning needles.
Sabrinnochio: A wooden toddler who’ll tell you she doesn’t like strings. Sticks very close to BluRore, the little fairy who gave her life. Loves putting on little shows for her friends.
Snow Mylene: The nicest kid in daycare, who’s songs always attract little animal friends. Always trying to let her friends know about the environment and nature.
QuasiIvan: A toddler with a hunched back, Ivan’s a shy kid who’s afraid of being seen as scary. Was taken in by the Church as a baby, and likes talking to his gargoyle friends. He protects his daycare pals from bullies.
JuleBeast: A little goth who’s family was cursed by a sorcerer. At random times in the day, Juleka becomes an adorable little beast. She loves being with Roselle, and tries to be scary, but everyone knows she’s an adorable sweetie.
MaestroLuka: A mellow and musical boy who’s Juleka’s twin brother. Sometimes he transforms into a toy piano, and lets Juleka play him. Has a lil crush on Marilan.
Roselle: A kind girl with a love for fairytales. She is incredibly helpful and loves to read stories to her classmates. Helps Juleka when she’s feeling upset.
Chloestasia: A bratty kid who brags about herself to other kids. She is learning how to not be so mean, starting by being nicer to Zoe.
And that’s part 1! Aren’t they just adorable? If you like it, make sure to check out Class of Heroes by @msweebyness. @artzychic27 and @msweebyness as usual.

I'm literally vibrating with excitement about my Wednesday Dungeon of the Mad Mage D&D game & need to yell about it here bc otherwise I won't be able to concentrate until then
Firstly, I am in LOVE with my character - and apparently so is everyone else, which is an absolutely unexpected delight to me
Temerity is a Zariel Tiefling Barbarian, descended from the hells with 2 cambions for dads. She's a tiny, petite little thing with rose pink hair & grey tips, who wears pastel coloured high fashion dresses & killer heels, is super nice in very country gal kinda way, and is essentially a pretty little princess with a pink warhammer making her way through a dungeon with her pals
In our first game (3 weeks ago), we were missing a player but our cute ragtag bunch had fun traipsing around and getting into trouble. Temerity spent 2 rounds of combat checking out a statue of a hot sharkman and then (almost) single handedly defeated it with a single throw of a hand axe - crit hitting it & causing 18 points of damage
Then, the next week, the mysterious missing player turns up at the table with the cutest fucking Half-Orc bard boy called Elrig who plays thrash metal on his triangle. He's big and threatening looking, with a shady background, but all of his scars are from falling over & really he's just a soft boy
CUE INADVERTANT ROMANCE BETWEEN THE PRETTY LITTLE BARBARIAN PRINCESS AND THE BIG INTIMIDATING HALF-ORC BARD????
I managed to somehow snag a bardbarian romance but with cute little gender twists in week 2??!!!
We only had that one session but there was already a little flirting going on between them. Elrig seems very impressed with Temerity's combat skills & upbeat personality, and Temerity seems very taken with this big, strong boy who isn't quite who he appears to be. Plus neither of them are very smart so it makes it even more fun
We also had a very fun duo moment when Elrig was intimidating some goblins (to just tell them to keep away) and Temerity was hanging off his shoulders speaking in infernal to assist with the check. We rolled a 28. Elrig just stood there looking scary whilst Temerity's there like "yeaaaaah, y'all should be scared! Look at him... look at.. look at those muscles *feels them* wow... they're uh... they're real big..."
And possibly the cutest thing to come of this so far is that me & the player have exchanged Pinterest boards with each other. They sent me a song called Princess of the Night, which they think Elrig sings about Temerity. And we also sent each other character playlists???
Anyway it's TOO FUCKING CUTE. Like I LOVE Temerity, and I've never had a D&D romance before so it's all very akshsksjsk to me. Plus all the players are really nice?! We even had someone send some temerity/elrig related posts in the discord group and I am sooooooo

I've been reading up on Duke and he's such a great character!!
On CiM, I thought it'd be fun to speculate about some potential character interactions and reactions. To repeat, this is speculation going from by brain cinema! I don't expect you to use these! I just think it's fun and wanted to share them.
Duke and Sam. Duke is smart, he's a riddle dork, he got deeply invested in puzzles as a child when Riddler controlled Gotham. I imagine he saw the recording later after his section in chapter 5 and appreciates how Sam kicked Riddler's ass. They get into a competition who knows more riddles.
Duke could discover a pivotal clue or make a pivotal connection to the DP characters because of the same reason. He's so good at finding at finding all the tiny bits and making sense of them for the bigger picture.
Duke and Spirit Robin, because Duke started / led the We Are Robin movement. He recognized Robin as a symbol of hope - and Spirit Robin I think is glowing because the concept of Robin gives hope - and made it into a rallying symbol for other teenagers to work together and help Gotham. So there could be a special connection. Because Duke is THE Signal.
Duke and Team Phantom. I feel he'd be one of their most vocal and important partners in helping Gotham beyond redirecting the supervillains energy to constructive / safer avenues. He knows Gotham. "So, I've heard you want to help the city? Here's what you need to know, what to do, and how to do it."
From @gothamandamity .
ooooohhh yeah. I have honestly been sleeping on Duke a bit on account of not knowing much about him but I do have plans on Duke and Sam being pals because their vibes feel compatible to me XD
God, now I'm thinking of Duke, Steph, and Sam forming a coalition to give the Riddler the ultimate headache since it's canon (at least to me) that Steph is ALSO a riddle master (and that The Batman would have been over in 30 minutes if she were there XD).
Sometime in the future:
Bruce: "The Riddler is causing trouble again."
Duke: "Oh no. Anyway, I'll get the girls."
Bruce: "Wha--"
Steph and Sam appearing out of the ether with sunglasses and bludgeoning weapons: "Don't worry Mr. Bat. We got this one."
The Riddler *in his lair*: "Why do I hear boss music..?"
I honestly know very little about the We Are Robin (bum ba dum ba bum bum bum) movement but I do really like the idea that Spirit!Robin has a special fondness for those who took up the mantle during that conflict. I don't think they would be a part of Spirit!Robin's manifestation or whatever, but I do think they'd have bolstered him and protected him from a force that wanted to see him snuffed out. So they have the glowing bean's favor :3
(On an unrelated note, I imagine that during the Robin Wars, Spirit!Batman was extra prickly and scary because those owl jerks were messing with his son.)
Duke honestly might be the Bat that I can envision hanging out with Team Phantom the most on account of him (in CiM at least) being their age and also the most normal Bat who is also completely bonkers (like...his bio-dad is some secret evil god or smt? he can glimpse into the future and control the full spectrum of light and also shadow for some reason? my boy is op and I love him. He and Danny are both eldritch in different ways. Danny is like Cthulu-adjacent while Duke leans more biblically-accurrate-"be not afraid"-angel-adjacent and I love that for them).

clone high oc + self insert information dump :]
jimmy h, known mostly as jimmy // clone son of jimi hendrix
goes by jimmy not jimi ( same sound, diff spelling to stand out from clone father )
went parachuting because his clone father was a paratrooper in the 101st airborne division at one point ( hated it )
he’s well liked by british clones of musicians from their clone father’s era ( think john lennon, eric clapton, etc )
^^ i think it would be a neat gimmick if british people esp ladies were fond of him in general. brit magnet.
jimmy is a cis man, uses he/they pronouns without preference, sexuality wise i haven’t decided quite yet. I think i’ll leave them unlabeled
^^ one of jimi’s song lyrics was continuously misheard as “‘scuse me as I kiss this guy” fun fact. also he wld sing this incorrect version live on occasion & fllw it with a fake makeout session. did u know? lol
jimmy is a deep sleeper and has interesting dreams similarly to their clone father. i think he keeps a written record of all the dreams he can remember, just for fun
he’s deff the type of guy to go “this reminds me of this one dream i had”
1st gen clone
i do think they’d follow in their clone father’s footsteps as a musician ^_^
richard “richie” pyror // clone son of richard pyror
has a huge soft spot for animals much like his clone father, I think he’d own a dog or two
huge class clown but hasn’t seriously considered a career in comedy. he has a very blunt humor but it’s still clever and it often makes you think to get the joke
2nd gen clone
i think he’d be more of an actor than an actual comedian. deff joined the school’s theater troupe btw. he’s a funny actor but he doesn’t want to do stand up
richie uses he/him pronouns and identifies as straight 🙏 subject to change but i think he’s cishet
he’s a very clever & witty person in general
very expressive in the face
i think he’s actually a chick magnet bc funny guys always get babes it’s a real phenomenon please believe me!!
uses richie as a nickname to stand out from clone father but rlly doesn’t mind being called richard
jean-michel basquiat // clone son of jean-michel basquiat ( second clone high self insert of mine )
fully goes by his clone father’s name, doesn’t mind being viewed as him bc he’s confident in his own character
does go by “johnny” / “johnny-boy” as a nicknames ( jean is pronounced similarly to john so it fits still ) but they’re not necessarily his preferred name
was hit by a car once like his clone father ( too busy on his phone to notice it coming ) ( embarrassing memory )
2nd gen clone
pals with debbie harry ( she likes his art! ) we do not speak of Andy warhol currently.
does street graffiti mostly inspired by the human body, sketch book is full of anatomy and natural poses. rlly big on the beauty of human form
currently speaks french & english; occasionally jots down notes in franglais
there’s probably a clone high friend group consisting of clone children of the infamous 27 club.. and he is a part of it. i am srry. like imagine being a clone and having ur clone father die so young. imagine approaching that age.. that’s gotta be scary, u need a coping group for that.
jean-michel uses he/him prns & probably neos since he’s new gen. i think he’d be queer generally like he wldn’t use any specific labels just queer.
rlly science smart ^_^
ella baker // clone daughter of ella baker
no differentiation between her name and her clone mom’s name
valedictorian of her class :)
sort of unknown, but prefers to be in the “background” of life much like her clone mother; would rather work behind the scenes
friends with harriet & frida even though she’s a 1st gen clone, she finds them to be nice
always “knows a guy” for every situation, i just think that gimmick is funny
i’ll develop more later + I think she’ll get glasses
she/her prns, i think she’d be a lesbian also. but that’s just me.
arthur “artie” ashe // clone son of arthur ashe
cis guy, he/him + “straight”,, rlly bisexual just unaware
has a man crush on Ryan Reynolds n also Nick Jonas don’t ask. me why don’t ask. and also jude bellingham. he thinks it’s normal
2nd gen clone
his adoptive father raises him alone btw no mother
still into tennis like his clone father, i think he’d get agitated whenever ppl make fun of the sport 😭🙏
also talented at soccer! but mostly focused on tennis.
glasses wearer.
pretty chill ^_^ 2nd gen clone
jeanie clisson // clone daughter of jeanne de clisson
works summers on cruise ships!
pirates movies online once new gen clones teach her how ( she’s 1st gen )
her name is jeanie but don’t make genie jokes she’ll actually kill you
i think she’d be a more masculine woman ( i’m not sure if butch is entirely appropriate to use though ) and she’d have muscles & wld work out. cld probably bench press jfk /hj
has an attack dog named smth sweet like “cupcake” lol. & also wrestles for the girl’s wrestling team
she/her pronouns, cis woman, don’t bother talking to her if ur a man ( “my clone mother only pirated because of a man. i pirate because i’m badass” )
it wld be funny if joan or marilyn ( CLONES THE CLONES ) fell for her
thea dexter // clone daughter of timothy dexter
trans woman, she/her, idk her sexuality yet
has insane luck just like her clone father, i think she’d be able to find money on the ground rlly easily
1st gen clone
makes capitalism work for her. a lot of her get rich quick schemes should NOT work but they DO <\3 probably runs a minor pyramid scheme /JOKE maybe. probably. but she does do get rich quick schemes
gandhi wld deff fall for her get rich quick plots n it wldn’t work out for him just for her
topher wld be like “as a cishet white man I recognize my privilege over you, a trans woman” and she’d be like “if you feel so bad just pay me” and it’s a running gag I think. that every time topher sees thea he gives her a dollar or two.
do not let this bitch onto the internet SHE’S GOING TO SCAM PEOPLE. /hj
josephine “josie” baker // clone daughter of josephine baker ( my 1st clone high self insert )
cis woman she/her bisexual
had a thing with frida at one point ( inspired by her clone mother ) ( they’re still friends after the break up and do once a month ex “dates” for fun )
shares a soft spot for animals with richie ^_^ her adoptive mother is a zoologist too, which helps, her adoptive father is a stay at home dad
loves cheetah print ( faux fur ofc )
dating joan hahahahahahaa!
she owns a cat named chiquita.. wld like more pets but can’t have more
more of a actor & singer than a dancer or comedienne, super funny but only situationally, not rlly into stand up. can dance but not rlly a dancer person, her passions rlly lie in singing
2nd gen clone also

some criticisms directed at horror stories that always make me roll my eyes:
"it wasn't scary" when it was obviously meant to be more sad or funny than scary. horror isn't necessarily about scaring YOU, personally.
"this character made a dumb decision" when said character was injured, dazed, panicked, running on adrenaline, etc. i'd like to see YOU make the smartest decisions with a dude twice your size and speed chasing you with a chainsaw bestie
also sometimes people are just not very smart or good at survival. if the character was previously established to be skilled and smart, then they might have a leg to stand on, but your average drunk high-schooler probably isn't going to make the best decisions.
it really drives me nuts when i see people judging horror entirely off of how much it scares or doesn't scare them, wearing their supposed bravery like a badge after watching a film that was never meant to scare them. there is SO MUCH variety and nuance in the horror genre and what ties everything in it together isn't scaring the reader, it's scaring the characters. because hear me out: fear. is subjective. crazy, right?
i'm not saying you can't watch a horror movie with your pals just because you want a good scare, but not EVERY horror work has to adhere to that template. there's films that are scary and are trying to be: go watch those.
it really saddens me when i try to express my love for horror and someone dismisses it like that. horror is such a massive and varied genre and I think it deserves just as much credit as any other.

limeta's going on a rant lads! adhd sponsored so you know it's gonna be incomprehensible :D
you know what i think
i think fanfic authors don't talk nearly enough about the themes they write in their own fics because they've been led to believe it's cringy if they do it on their own. that they need to wait for this gospel wielding reviewer who's going to understand the theme perfectly and notice all of the nuance and leave no stone unturned. that's a lot of pressure to put on a person who might just read a fic and comment superficially because they don't understand, don't have the words to explain, or otherwise don't WANT to get into the nitty gritties of the works. or the 'tiny intestines' how we like to say details in my language.
in my personal opinion the author should have full right and support to just go online, on their blog or other type of platform they're using and just go HAM. you posted a chapter, it's passed a couple of days, people have read it, you just go and TALK about that chapter. if you feel the inclination of course. or you go make MEMES about your own works. you ENTERTAIN YOURSELF first!! you know how they say you need to put your air mask on first and then help someone? BESTIE, SAME THING!
you feel like nobody in the reviews has commented on something you want to talk about - you start the dialogue yourself and see who joins up - there'll always be someone.
being your own biggest fan makes so you won't get bored of writing. and what do fans do? they talk about the work.
don't just sit in front of your computer and click refresh hoping someone reviews. it's discouraging! it's downright scary and sad! hell i wish i knew this when i was starting out ten years ago. i was so dead set on being the proper fanfic authorTM. now? after COVID???? nah, nobody's got the time for that.
you be the literature teacher talking about colour usage and prose and metaphors in your own fic. like you are SMART for using that colour. Like YEP people DEF need to pay attention but if they don't? if too much is going on in a chapter and people don't notice? This isn't a classic literature class man, just point it out to them. The pay off will be super cool and interesting anyway. Don't spoil your work, I mean (unless you want to, like what are they gonna do? you're the author you can just do a 180 and say psyche and fuck with them) but nudging your reading pals in the right direction like oh dude the colour red? the leitmotif of this story's progressing in xyz? nudge nudge, that might or might not come up later you know ;)
You know how you have those 10 page summaries in the beginning of classic books that explain the book to you and then you read the book and understand it? Don't put so much on the readers. Don't think they'll catch every little detail.
This isn't saying in no shape or form to dumb it down - just if you want to talk about it - you MENTION it. you praise yourself, buddy! you make your own memes if no one else will because you know how to have fun.
and trust me you know the characters the best for your own story so unless you actually talk about it, rarely will anyone else do it for you. they'll be too shy. they might think it's not their place. but if you do it? nobody can tell you shit.
ahhhhhh! but what if someone calls me cringy for doing it and says my story is shit because nobody else thought to say stuff like this first and it looks desperate that i'm talking about it?
i mean lmao take it from someone who's been in this game for over 10 years now - like - it's super fucking cringy* that you're writing fanfic. have FUN with it :D
*cringe culture is dead. just have fun.
