13, 20, 21, & 24 for the violence meme?👀✨
Sorry It took forever for me to answer I thought i put this in q but it was in drafts SKJSKSJ 😭 I will answer for Fallout :3 also excuse the lengthy answers this badboy can fit so many thoughts
Choose Violence Ask Game
13. worst blorboficiation
God u probably know how it is but Joshua Graham!! I admit when i was younger i thought he was a cool villain character but now im just kinda sick of him by how much people love him despite the whole mormon thing and COFOUNDING THE LEGION 🤨🤨and using tribals for his vengeance boner (ooh get so annoyed hes one of or the only character in the game with good karma like wtf?)
Also the blorboficiation of Benny is annoying to me idk I only like him for the memes? I think a part of it is bc his VA is a bad person irl but so is Arcade's but i dont hate him. Maybe bc i see Arcade as Arcade and Benny as literally just Matthew perry. I think i just put myself in the shoes of the courier too hard bc that bitch shot me i hate him!!
20. part of canon you found tedious or boring
Fallout 4 intro...
Like its not too bad but I always just dick around and speedrun it. Absolutely not a fan of forced to being in a straight relationship and having a kid eugh... Mods help but the fact its still there in canon leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Altho I have the mirror dialogue with nate and nora memorised at this point lol
21. part of canon you think is overhyped
Hmm i dunno... Maybe The Legion bc legion fanboys annoy me? And Bethesda's treatment of the BoS. It was interesting to see them return to their tech hoarding bigot roots (even tho i dont like it but there has to be villians) but it feels like Bethesda is just making them out to be the durh super cool badass armor faction, and bc it seems they plan on making them major parts in every. game like I want other factions to have the spotlight
24. topic that brings up the most rancid discourse
Joshua graham apologisers/sympathisers 🤨
These aren't really discourse but people that make mods that change a characters appearance to whitewash or sexify them and normie fallout fans that are super capitalist and homophobic absolutely no reading comprehension insight
Also a minor nitpick but when dudebros say Veronica is bi. Shes a lesbian she doesnt want to sleep with you (altho this is more a guys not comprehending women can be lesbians then a fallout thing)

I got a lot for you, you don't have to answer all of these 💀. 2, 4, 8, 21, 35, and 50 for Jilly. 3, 7, 10, 41, and 64 for Valkya. And 6, 7, 14, 25, and 52 for Mike. And a large fry 😁
I FINALLY DID ITTTTTT IM SORRY FOR THE WAIT!! all under the cut bcs ofc its LONG
JILLY
2. What are their favourite possessions? Why? (sentimentality, history, price, etc)
-She has 2 stuffed ferrets shes had since she was little :) she calls them stinker and slinker and she loves them so much. Also a collection of friendship bracelets she pretty much makes matching ones for everyone she likes and wears them in rotation.
4. Are they a good gift-giver? What do they tend to give as gifts? -Jilly LOVES gift giving bcs she naturally hoards and steals shit and then ends up with too much shit, so what better to do with it than give to friends?? You're likely to get anything she can swipe that reminds her of u. Tries to vary it to suit whoever shes giving a gift to but her go to is something like stuffed animals and jewelry bcs thats what she likes best
8. What does their dream house look like?
-She would like an at home gym with giant climbable pillars and hoops and obstacles, or just a house with a lot of land and forest she can run around in. She's also way a fan of hidden passages and secret hiding places, anything she can snoop and weasel around in. No scary basement tho
21. What’s their ideal date like?
-Carnival or theme park! Anything with lots of action and noise and prizes. Shed want to play all the games for hours straight and go on all the biggest rides.
36. Do they trust easily? What would you have to do to earn their trust?
-Yes she trusts easily :/ mayhaps too easily. Her way of thinking is innocent until proven guilty and even then, it takes a looooot to make her start to doubt someone because she wants to believe everyone has good intentions. To earn her trust, being nice to her and other ppl is the easiest way, but she's also prone to trust you if you seem secure somehow or just in charge like a position of authority.
50. Why would they be a good partner for a road trip?
-Snacks. On demand. She packs every snack and drink you could ever hope for and stashes up on blankets and pillows too. The type to wanna play my spy and car games and to sing along really loudly to music. WILL stick her head out the window sometimes. Will want to stop at every roadside attraction. Just for fun the reason she might be a bad roadtrip partner is that she talks a lot. And will be loudly singing and sticking her head out the window. And after a while the car will start to smell vaguely of ferret and she might shed.
--------
VALKYA
3. Do they get jealous easily? If so, what usually causes it?
-Shes really not a jealous person at all, especially not romantically. Shes pretty chill in general. Even so, some times she gets jealous of all the time other people get to spend with Naryu. If Valkya feels like someone else is being prioritized over her shes more likely to act out like a baby ggdghdf
7. What’s their “type”? What romantically attracts them to another person?
-Women who could kill her and men who are pathetic, but shes open to anything. Has a thing for nerds, goths, vampires, werewolves, short people, assassins, and most importantly people who are easy to fluster. She will bone anything that moves
10. What’s a simple thing that brings them joy?
-Finishing a good book, especially a series. When shes not in life threatening danger or fucked up out of her mind shes a pretty avid reader. She likes having the free time to sit around a fireplace and snuggle up with a book, though she'll deny it if caught and say she doesnt know how to read hgfdgsd.
41. What would they dress up as for Halloween?
-Demetria 💀 shed just steal her clothes and stretch TF out of em gsdgdfhsd. Or dress up as herself bcs who needs originality when your famous?
64. Describe what their social media would be like.
- Random memes from the last century all mixed up, millions of selfies and nudes out of nowhere. Drunk posting at 4 am and getting into fights w Dem over dumb shit, subtweeting everyone to start drama. Has thousands of followers and does giveaways of shit she finds lying around her house for no reason but shes bored
-----------------
MIKE
6. Do they prefer to have a big social circle, or a few close friends?
-Shed prefer to have a few close friends as long as they ride or die. Most likely die tho. Shes desperate for frienship shell stalk someone to get to know them really well and then delude herself into thinking theyr besties. Sometimes it doesnt go well but she still gets a meal out of it even if shes sad
7. What’s their “type”? What romantically attracts them to another person?
-Someone who looks like they're up for fun! Really into alt fashion and people who seem like they dont give a shit. Confidence, fighters, rebels, anyone she can party hard with. Likes people who are interesting and is especially interested in befriending other killers, they have so much to bond about!
14. Who do they go to in a crisis/emergency? Any particular reason why they choose that person?
-Probably Zeke tbh. Since she turned him hes like the only other vamp besides prim she knows and hes always pretty level headed. Probably goes to him for advice on how to make friends and hes like “maybe dont break into ppls houses and drain their victims out of nowhere :/” and shes like “that was ONE TIME and it worked!!”
25. What are their dreams like?
-All chaotic! Theres seldom ever a storyline or anything, just bright colors and random things happening and an overlying sense of panic or dread. Like those images you look at to understand what having a stroke is like, everything is off color and melting and shes usually running away from something. Typically nightmares but about nothing in particular, just disconnected sounds shapes and figures.
52. What topic should nobody bring up around them, lest the other person be subject to a massive ramble/rant?
-ANYTHING to do with twilight. She knows everything about it. Has seen and read is 12 times over and can quote it directly at any time, do not attempt to argue twilight with her. Diehard team Edward forever. If your tied up and somehow the topic of it comes up just pray she kills you soon bcs she will go on for hours and bring out her annotated copies and force you to go through them with her.

Follow up (also sorry if this is a resend my tumblr app was being rude): DO U THINK KURAMA WENT TO HUMAN WORLD TO SET UP A BASE OF OPERATIONS.... TO MAKE A “KINGDOM” AND POSSIBLY RULE OVER HUMAN WORLD??? Or maybe. He just spent all his time stealing treasure for fun.... and finally he was able to use that hoard to pay for his mom’s honeymoon 🤣🤣🤣
When Raizen told Yusuke that Yomi also wanted to rule over the Human World, I thought this was Youko’s original idea lol. But, Youko basically shifted his base of operations to the Human World because at that moment he wasn’t strong enough to go against the two great forces that were consolidating in the Makai: Mukuro and Raizen.
Mukuro once told Hiei that his hiruseiki stone was just one of the many spoils she got from the many countries she had conquered. Kurama also told Hiei had no idea how terrible Mukuro was because he hadn’t been born yet. And apparently Raizen was a pretty fierce and savage youkai back then. Let’s not forget that Raizen stopped eating only 700 years ago and Yomi stated Kurama deserted Makai 1,000 years ago. Taking this hostile scenario into consideration, I imagine it became really tough to Youko to go on with his plan to accumulate wealth and build his own country in the Demon World.
I don’t think it was for fun, I really think he wanted to make a kingdom as you said, rule over Ningenkai and become an opposing force there. Kurama mentioned to Yusuke in the end of the manga that there were some types of energy not used by the humans that the Spirit World had great interest in. Kurama knew a lot about the 3 worlds and maybe he was also interested in that energy (probably the same energy that fed the Spirit World’s cannon). I read a cool fanfic once that tells the story about Youko Kurama’s 1,000 years in the Human World. It was really fun, he visited many countries, became ruler of some of them, stole great treasures and so on until he got caught by Shunjun. If I find the link again, I’ll share it. 
As you said before I don’t have all the answers 😂😂 but I also like talking about this stuff. I don’t know if you are the same person who asked about the Three Kings Arc and Japanese honorifics like "Kuwabara-kun", but I’ll reply them. It’s just I haven't had much time lately. My apologies.
[Edit] Anon answer:
Thank u for responding to my question about Kurama ruling over a kingdom in human world!!! i really find this stuff fun to think about!!! i have always thought it was strange that with the kekkai up that kurama says he "escaped to human world" after being injured, bc it would be strange that he would have the strength to do something like that if he was fleeing... so the knowledge he has been in human world already makes me think a lot more about what he was doing in his time in human world! -🦇
I did not send the other asks about the honorifics or anything lol i also decided im signing my asks as "🦇" bc i dont want to come off anon but then you can know it is me! lol sorry about it im just shy! i like being able to discuss though more about the canon and the things we can extrapolate idk it is just rly enjoyable to me
That part “escape to the Human World” was really confusing. We don’t know exactly where he was injured. I’ve always imagined Youko was snooping in the Spirit World or was lured there, got caught and then fled to the Human World. It’s hard to imagine how he got caught. A youkai like him being so careless? I’m sure Reikai had a real good stratagem to capture him and planned it out for centuries.
But, given the fact this story was told in the beginning of the manga and Togashi hadn’t introduced yet the concepts of the barrier, the author could have forgotten, I don’t know lol. Hiei also said Yukina and he had different mothers and suddenly they are twins XD. The story of the janken is also funny. Hokushin also mentioned that the barrier was not a problem as there were several ways to cross it. I wish Togashi had developed more this other methods as he only showed the device to reduce youki.
No problem about staying anonymous, I love the idea of signing as 🦇 or using a pseudonymous.

Since working as a host there have been a few things that I would like to normalize
Treating customers the same way they treat servers/staff.
STOPPING AT THR HOST STAND! Just because you are going up to the bar or if I’m with another customer dose not exempt you from getting your name and phone number taken down. Because guess what if you walk past the host stand and I am working I will come up to your ass and ask you for your information, and I am not scared to do so. If you are a regular and I actually remember your name fine but if you claim “I was here earlier” or “I’m in here every day” im sorry I see at the least about a hundred faces and names a day just at least give me your first name.
(This is for certain servers) I AM NOT YOUR BUSSBOY! Unless it is specifically stated in the contract(it is not stated in mine) I don’t have to clean your tables, because I have so many servers get bitchey with me over the fact that their tables aren’t clean. Bitch I get paid to seat people and WIPE DOWN YOUR TABLES not clearing them of the dishes. And if I do clear the dishes it’s either to be nice because I see that you’re busy, or because I’m busy and the waiting room/host stand is full/busy.
If it is dead, please PLEASE DO NOT hoard dirty menus. It is not fun to run out of menus halfway throught a dinner rush then have to tell your table “I’ll be back with a menu in just a minute” then spend several minutes more than intended cleaning a ‘generous’ stack of menus just so all the tables you sat then have a menu
Let me know if you want a certain table, as a host I live in the land of tables and chairs. If you want a certain table I can try to get you it so long as it work with my rotation, and it’s not already taken.
Asking your server or host to do certain things. This differes with every establishment but in mine the most you can have at a table is 10, you can’t move chair or stools from other tables. So ask if you need another table please don’t just assume you can steal from this other table as a restaurant we have rules we need to follow to keep everyone safe. Same gose for things like a heightchair we have safety rule we have to follow, we can’t have heightchair in the lanes bc it’s a fire hazard and it can potentially injure serversif they don’t see it when walking, therefore we take away a chair at the table and replace it with the heightchair. Please don’t move it into the lanes if you don’t use it.
Please don’t assume what I as a host can and can’t do. I’ve had so many people ask if I can grab their food or drinks, legally I can not serve food or alcohol till I’m 18. So at the moment the only thing I can grab you is napkins, a takeout box, a bag for the takeout, extra sauce, or a water.(and run to-go/call-in/DoorDash(etc) orders to the host stand) Please don’t argue with me over it because myself and my employers can actually get into very serious trouble for it, yes it can seem stupid but A) Child labor laws and B) it’s not the same at every establishment but in this establishment that is the rule. So if you wanna get mad at me for following the guidelines at my job fine but it’s not gonna get you anywhere.
STOP MAKING THE CREEPY “Oh so because I gave you my number I get yours” COMENTS ANY COMMENT LIKE THAT IS CREEPY AND UNCOMFORTABLE AND UNNECESSARY JUST DONT. I AM A MINOR.
(Another one for the servers) Coming up to the host stand to ask me about stuff like drama. I am a host, I don’t have the convenience of getting to hang out in the back with the servers so unless someone told you for a fact that I was their please don’t ask me “did you hear what happened with so-n-so” because more than likely my answer with be “no I didn’t”
(This is technically a 9.5 but tumble dosen’t do that type of stuff) PLEASE COME UP TO THE HOST STAND TO FILL ME IN ON DRAMA. If it just happened and I’m their please fill me in so I can give people an answer when they ask because again I don’t have the convenience of getting to hang out in the back with the servers. Which also mean that I just wait for people to enter the building and leave the building. Do you know how boring that is/can be?! I need stuff to occupy my thoughts as I wait for people to come in
(This is technically 10((it’s again for the servers) let me know when you get cut(when your shift ends) because chances are the manager hasn’t told me so I’m gonna be seating your section and telling people “_ will be your server” and it’s not true. Plus then I can adjust the sections
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

and now we return to outlast 2, where- 
THINGS KEEP GETTING SO, SO MUCH WORSE
Tumblr media
(i have... a LOT im trying to process about this whole section sorry for upcoming text walls. really nasty #blood / #gore in here as well though) (i didnt realize i was This far behind on liveblogs lmao i drafted this. a while ago and didnt get back to it until now) 
---
so i fell off the bridge (shock. horror. who could have predicted this) and right into the scalled village
Tumblr media Tumblr media
what.............happened to you 
Tumblr media
fuCKING GO D
so it turns out “the scalled” are... some kind of leper colony banned from the town and left to fester and rot out here alone 
most of them are just lying around suffering and dying, i dont know what the fuck happened to them, there’s some mention of like. wildly untreated syphilis/potentially other stds they’re being told is their curse for the sins they’ve committed but does.... syphilis do that to you. it might actually be leprosy i dont know i dont want to research this. all i can think about is when i watched jesus christ superstar in high school and the leper colony song where they’re all crowding around jesus all trying to touch him REALLY freaked me out for a while
i mean its like. probably a combination of disease left horrifically untreated and massively infected given the absolutely appalling conditions these people are living in (everything’s run down and full of blood and shit and who knows what else), starvation, who knows what they’re even finding to eat out here so that’s probably causing even more disease but still jesus christ
at first it just made me really sad, sure these people came from temple gate too so they were. fucked up cultists to begin with but a lot of this is like... result of longterm emotional and mental abuse and manipulation, some of these people might not have started out as depraved evil murderers, and like. nobody deserves to live like this. except knoth lmao throw him down here, but
so i thought maybe it would turn out that you realize they’re human too, they’re just in a fucking LOT of pain and maybe you can’t do anything to help them (i dont think there’s any hope for anyone down here at this point) but maybe they’d turn out to be on my side and do something to help me fight back against the leader who abandoned them, “the most absolutely fucked up looking people are actually the most human” kind of thing but uh. that is not how things went. at all, 
ill get into How Fucking Bad this got in a second lmao but like
most of them dont really do anything to you other than bleed on you and beg you for help, some people lash out but thats like, understandable given the horrifying state they’re in, but
as it turns out, being the “scalled messiah” is a VERY bad thing, they went from occasionally lashing out at me to outright tracking me down to murder me to death which, like, honestly kind of disappointing
bc one of the things i liked the most about the first outlast was how many of the prisoners were clearly just victims too, some of them (lookin at you, naked twin guys,) were just evil and murderous but some of them were just very very mentally unwell (exacerbated by horrible living conditions and the fact that the people who were supposed to be protecting them and helping them recover were actively, intentionally working to make their symptoms worse) and couldn’t really be blamed for acting violently toward you, but
then sometimes there’s people who warn you about dangers ahead, people sitting in corners hiding and scared and wont hurt you unless you give them a reason to think you might be a threat, people just trying to stay alive, people who need help 
but that’s. not the case here, and there’s definitely a particular kind of horror in “absolutely no one in this hell town can be trusted, nobody will help me, everyone here wants to hurt me and every time i think ive made any kind of progress it gets so much worse” (except that ONe guy who tried to protect me. im still sad about him) but. i dont know i feel like there’s a missed opportunity here. im not sure if im supposed to feel like the scalled deserve to be like this because of the kind of people they were before, but i dont. i feel like the “what the fucking shit HAPPENED to these people” horror is heightened by the realization that they’re people, and just kinda using them as attack zombies is. missing something, somehow. i dont know, i cant figure out how to word what i want to say here 
i mean its absolutely fucking horrifying, i was scared out of my mind going through all this, and i still gotta give props to a video game experience that left me legitimately feeling like i needed to go take a shower and crawl under a blanket for a while 
i guess ultimately with outlast im coming here to be scared shitless more than anything else and boy did they ever fucking deliver
ok im gonna stop bc i will keep talking in circles about this forever if i dont, moving on
Tumblr media Tumblr media
WHAT EVEN ARE THESE GUYS, APART FROM COMPLETELY TERRIBLE
im guessing theres some kind of... inbreeding birth defect situation going on here but i cant even process what im looking at 
that and its hard to look at them at all considering the only times i see them im getting murdered to death. my panicked screenshots hoping to get a better look later did not help 
Tumblr media
PRETTY SURE THEY JUST MADE HIM DRINK THEIR BLOOD, 
how the fuck has my dude not thrown up like 90 times already. im glad he hasnt bc im bad emetophobia but outlast 1 did it so im honestly surprised that hasnt happened unless ive just forgotten it in the blur of nightmares im going through here 
Tumblr media
OH
THAT’S... NOT GOOD
THAT IS REALLY, REALLY NOT GOOD
Tumblr media
FUCK SHIT MOTHERFUCKING FUCK
i gotta say im impressed with how FAR they GO with this one, i have no idea how much game i have left but considering this isnt even the ending i am HORRIFIED to see what the fuck is gonna happen next 
i mean outlast 1 has you getting your fucking fingers sliced off and whistleblower has. That Scene (even though like. it stops before waylon actually gets cut its REALLY CLOSE)  
this whole time i kept thinking something would happen and they’d get interrupted, I’d escape somehow, they aren’t really going to have the player character get literally fucking crucified from your own perspective,
but then the nails go in 
and you’ve got one hand literally nailed to a cross
and then they start the other one 
and i was like, WOW FUCK, THEY ACTUALLY DID IT, BUT NOW HE’LL ESCAPE... SOMEHOW.... RIGHT ??? 
but they lift it up 
and you’re hanging there 
and for a second i legitimately thought it was gonna end there for him, i thought he was actually just going to die there and the game would continue with lynn or something (which, to be fair, would be a pretty cool twist, but i dont WANT blake to just die here like this) 
ANYWAY!! FUCKING GOD, THAT SURE HAPPENED 
but against all odds HE SOMEHOW DIDNT FUCKING DIE, and managed to find the strength to rIP HIS HANDS OUT OF THE NAILS AND FALL DOWN
Tumblr media
i cannot fucking IMAGINE what that would feel like. i dont want to imagine it but i sure the fuck am now 
i dont know if its possible to like. die from bleeding out in this scene if you dont find the bandages fast enough but it sure felt like i was going to 
Tumblr media
fucking hell i can practically feel it in my real hands i HATE THIS i HATe it
god. fuck. im gonna be thinking about this scene for the rest of my life i didnt think anything would ever be worse than the finger slicing scene in outlast 1 but this. i think this wins
Tumblr media
wHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!?!??? THERES SOMETHING CHASING ME IN THE SCHOOL FLASHBACKS NOW IM NOT EVEN SAFE HERE ANYMORE
WHAT *IS* THAT??!??
Tumblr media
w OA h
i still have no IDEA whats going on with these flashbacks either, clearly his classmate hung herself and he feels subconsciously responsible for it because he didn’t do anything to stop her (though it doesn’t sound like he Could have done anything, and. they were kids), there’s definitely some buried trauma he never dealt with thats resurfacing now but
i still dont think its just a manifestation of trauma, because like. the recordings are still coming out as fucked up static, if he was just having really intense hallucinations there wouldn’t be any record on the camera, it would just be him filming nothing and talking to himself through a panic attack, it wouldn’t be getting consistently corrupted ONLY during the flashbacks so what the fuck is happening 
Tumblr media
COLA
DRINK IT
i m losing it its the cola machines from the first game i diD NOT EXPECT THESE TO BE HERE 
Tumblr media
what the fuck is christian salad 
you didn’t think i would see this, outlast devs, you thought you could hide this on the menu board and i wouldnt notice. i did notice and i demand answers
Tumblr media
NO!!!! THAT IS THE OPPOSITE OF OKAY THIS IS THE LEAST OKAY I HAVE EVER BEEN IN MY LIFE 
Tumblr media
WELL!!!!! OKAY!!!! ALRIGHT!!!! NOW THAT I’VE BEEN LITERALLY FUCKING CRUCIFIED, FELL DOWN A HILL AND STRAIGHT INTO A FENCE OF BARBED WIRE, GOT DRAGGED OUT HERE AND BURIED ALIVE, CRAWLED MY WAY OUT OF MY OWN GRAVE AND NOW HAVE HOARDS OF DISEASED ZOMBIE NIGHTMARE CULTISTS SEARCHING FOR ME SO THEY CAN DEVOUR MY FLESH, LET’S GET GOING, SHALL WE 
THIS IS FINE!!! EVERYTHING IS FINE I CANT SEE SHIT AND THERES NOTHING BUT TREES AND BARBED WIRE EVERYWHERE AND NO INDICATIONS WHATSOEVER OF WHERE I NEED TO GO BUT IT’S F IN E IM DOING GREAT

So I totally sent that meme in wrong but like ignore that and just (insert the heart here and still for anyone most on your mind lol sorry!! Alsnsksnsksks XD) ~shiroeswife
fdjskfk OKAY I SAW THIS TOO LATE ILL JUST DO THE REST ON THIS POST @shiroeswife​
Who doodles little hearts all over the desk with their initials inside them
god, can i say hilda here? cause hilda totally shipped me and leonie even before i made a move lol
Who starts the tickle fights
does it count as a tickle fight if neither of us is particularly ticklish? like i guess me bc of that whole affectionate bothering thing i mentioned but it doesn’t tend to go anywhere mostly
Who falls asleep last, watching the other with a small affectionate smile
idk man it’s hard to keep track, we both get pretty tired in the evening - but i guess i’m the one who stays up late sometimes so i guess i’m the one~
Who mistakes salt for sugar
hilda
Who lets the microwave play the loud beeping sound at 1am in the morning
HILDA im sorry at this point ive just converted this into sugar and spice lol
Who rearranges the bookshelf in alphabetical order
none of us fundamentally like, really care about what order the books are in, but i’d probably do it if i was incredibly bored
Who licks the spoon when they’re baking brownies
can i say that i bake the brownies and hilda licks the spoon? cause i know that’s not the question but she doesn’t care
Who buys candles for dinners even though there’s no special occasion
hilda sometimes, but leonie gets ticked off cause she thinks it’s unnecessary spending (and she’s kinda right? but it’s something i can’t really pick a side on cause i like the atmosphere)
Who draws little tattoos on the other with a pen
hilda draws on leonie, leonie draws on me and i draw on hilda. not all at the same time tho, depends on how we’re seated in class. i’d draw on leonie but i wanna draw jeralt and the one time i tried (from memory) it was embarrassingly bad and i wanted her to wash it off immediately but she kept it (thankfully i didn’t get to hear what the man himself thought about it)
Who comes home with a new souvenir magnet every time they go on vacation
HILDA STOP HOARDING THEM YOU DONT NEED THAT MANY VACATIONS ANYWAY
Who convinces the other to fill out those couple surveys in the back of magazines
this one’s tricky to answer cause there’s 3 of us and those surveys are usually geared towards only 2 people at a time.
so hilda just does the surveys as if they were about me and leonie lmao

ASKS - Mini Stories/Headcanons/Ideas
Little ask-stories sent to my main blog, posted here!
violetsnowstorm555 said: Archaeology majors agree never to dig anywhere near campus for fear of what might come up.
Anon said: What about that one kid who thinks the fair folk are actually ALIENS
k4t3yk4t said: There was that one occasion with the Vegan™ freshman who discovered the black fur coat in her roommate's closet. She was so appalled... She stole it, not to keep, but to confront her roommate later about. She never got the chance to. She wasn't seen for months, but eventually came back. She was different, when she did, though.. And never went near the pool again.
unicorn-aly said: The Girl With The Eye Tattoo on The Back Of Her Neck™; To always be kind to That One Janitor; don't pass that broom closet unless it's a life or death situation (and even then run as fast as you can); to say your purpose and you mean no harm when you enter That Room; leave exactly 9 cups of vanilla creamer under that tree; don't step on the tiny hills lest your head should face the opposite way for the rest of your life; never ever EVER pick up and keep the things you find in the mini garden 2/3
(I can’t find the other two asks connected to this which is a tragedy bc this fragment is a Gem)
chaoswolf1982 said: I am sooooo tempted to headcanon that EU is one of the places where citizens from Night Vale attend for higher education, but due to NV's own innate weirdnesses, those who've attended find absolutely nothing unusual or strange about the place, it being equivalent to them as being a quiet and plain small-town college. A good math program, decent arts scholarship, but nothing particularly stands out about it.
scarymaryanne said: OHMYGOD I'm in love with Elsewhere Uni! Just thinking about the RAs and how far they are willing/allowed to go to keep their students from getting nabbed. Like a rota for who rings the bells at dawn and dusk and no one will ever skip that duty, not again. And watching for signs of who might get taken. You can't foil them all the time cos they get mad but that tiny dance major on your floor is TOO fragile to revel with the Gentry and you will camp outside their door with salt and iron and the RAs who go in at the end of the year to get back those who were taken spend all year hoarding favours and gifts to use to get people out. They keep the crows sweet because while they would never, ever spy on the Fair Folk they've been known to drop tidbits of information and gossip that come in handy. They're the silver tongued English and Poli-sci majors who know exactly how to wheedle those who were taken back home
thecommrade said: EU idea. That one kid that everything seems to revolve around them. Are they the ring master? Are they a fae? Do they have forbidden dark magic? Nobody really knows. They're honestly too crazy to get a straight answers from them. Its always some cryptic poem of nonsense.

Though sleep-deprived you are, pull away, sudden sickening realization of what you've done. They're smiling again, and there's something pinched between their fingers - a single hair. You'd taken their offer. They took their due. You don't acknowledge them day after next. Their eyes don't match. You know that hair color. You try to get your bearings on what's going on in class, not paying a whole lot of attention to the new student. Who is paying a lot of attention to you. "Bad week, huh?" They ask. You nod absently, suddenly realizing you don't know anyone really well in this class enough to ask for notes. Damn it..."Want to see mine?" The new student asks. You look over, finally - they seem friendly enough, an why not. Their eyes do not match. "Um..." You hesitate. They smile and /their eyes do not match/.

solongraggedydoctor said: Elsewhere university. Their are three distinct types of non believers who attend. All three arrive unaware of the far world type 1) rapidly changes their views on the world, and accept and believe. Type 2) they willingly follow the rules, as they've seen what happens otherwise, but they say they don't believe, if just so if it turns out to be a joke they don't look stupid, they get got a few times. Type 3) they outright deny, and oddly, no matter what they do, nothing happens ... And oddly, no matter what they do, nothing ever happens to them. They show disrespect, follow none of the fae rules, and are still left alone, but then, towards the end of their final year, they kinda just seem to disappear, and no one really seems to remember where they went, and even years after the fact, no one you know has had any kind of contact with type 3, other than rumours that they moved away, and did something unnoteworthy.

Kids who Starr drawing weird shit on their notebooks and their friends dont know if its from that weird geometry class, if they started a new drawing style of If they've been abducted. Im majoring in physics and really I cant stop thinking How hard would It be for us to notice If our friends had been taken
kass-king-of-sass said: Hi, just wanted to say your stuff for elsewhere university is amazing. I don't know if you're still accepting stuff and I've never submitted an ask like this before but here goes. I've been imagining mischievous or angered fae living in residence halls and playing tricks on the inhabitants. Pulling the fire alarm at 2 am, locking people out of their rooms, messing with the thermostats, burning food in the microwaves, things like that. All the hallmarks of a bad roommate but with a fae twist.
Anon said: There are certain alleys on campus that, on some nights, lead to faerie pavilions. If you bring them an offering, the fair folk will let you dance with them and will not harm you as long as you don't eat the food and leave before dawn.
Anon said: Oh, oh! I'm an interior design/architect student! Just imagining all the little tricks of the eyes that you could learn from the fae and then implement in human design is so exciting!
Anon said: sorry im sure youre getting a veritable INFLUX these days but imagine: student at Elsewhere whose parents' expectations have guided them into med/law/some other 'esteemed' course but theyre secretly into/good at art or singing or something. the fae would have such good sport luring them away after they sang under their breath in the wrong part of campus or one of their pages of doodling got blown in the breeze out of the window :3:3
Anon said: A freshman who lives off campus in her own apartment but Knows more than any other freshman or off campus student. She smiles and speaks carefully eyes always watching she goes by a name that's familiar to some until one night at a party she challenges one of Them to a game of 21. She drops 2 pictures on the table one of 2 girls a younger her and dark haired girl with a duffle bag in her hands and the other is of the dark haired girl with a boy who has empty eyes. "I want to see my sister again"
Anon said: In the end, it turns out she was never any different from you. She just happens to be from Iceland, just happened to have grown up with Gentry in her garden and the sea in her back yard. The one place where one lives with Them in the mountains, the one place where even the government respect Them. She never needed salt, she had hemmed her skirts with rocks and painted her nails with volcanic ashes. You conclude that international students can be just as foreign as the Fae (3/3)
Anon said: A student invested in geopolitics strikes a deal; "Give me the power to stop the corporate damming and I'll make sure no human ever nears the Nile". After all, the fae doesn't care whether their actions hurt the humans, and the student now posses unprecedented bargaining chip against at least four different governments

Im not intelligent at all. In the conventional sense. The ramblings of a girl who just has sooo much going in in her head it's constant. But im not a genius. Or that confusing.
It just sounds like I am bc fandoms have this issue where they can JUSTSO point out the issues in soletiing. They can pick and prod and go oh problematic! But then you go to name the problems and the difficulties within society like for ex: the idea of representation in general. Salivating over it. How fucking sad that is. How we are trained to accept it. So in a BL and also RACE in the bl genre they exploit viewers naivete both domestically and internationally. Ive seen tons of people liken being asian to being a person of color. However, in their predominantly homogenous society (or intentionally publically homogenous society), they are not "poc" (also name the of color; i dont use bipoc idc if u do but it's called being asian guys cos yall aint talkin about black ppl lmao)
They as humans seeing other humans who look like them everywhere, engage with the world differently than an american in asia or asians living outside of their home country (like bae doo nanwhen she worksnin the US is not the same as the bae doo nanworking on a korean program) I dont complain about it in everything i see bc ppl say it ALL THE TIME. but it is NOT the same. Being a person of color is very distinctly an american concept. This is all stuff people will get to know on their own if they choose to dig more.
I do my best to underline what my ugly little eyes process. How i figure things out as a black female american artist too! Im hard on shit cos i should be. I take it seriously. And even if i dont take it seriously bc THEY dont then thats their problem.
I know this is a complaint that I am not alone in. I know it's the internet. I just don't get how people can write really heavy analysis but they refuse to actually probe the underlying issues. Not everyone is me, or like my friends, but if there's way fewer people talking about this stuff it seems absolutely glaring when theres few people engaging in the way i do. It seems like im the glitch but I am thinking just as much just differently.
I really loved where your eyes linger but there was little deep class analysis. I remember few convos a bout it. I know a lot about korea (sigh being a black ex kpop fan lol mess) and i love the history but all ofnit matters! Korea's relation to labor!
People bringing up thai actors snd actresses leaving the industry and doing acting as something quick. As an artist~ who went to film school with insanely wealthy ppl and isnin tons of debt you have to understand how shitty that is. People have monetary access and they just fucking do whatever just because they want to. Meanwhile you have young people being coerced into this bullshit mainstream life to LITERALY just make money bc they dont come from a rich background. The wealth gap in thailand is BAD, theres a dictatorship, they had a fucking coup. The governments like here do not respect their people. Their marginalized groups. Trans thai women, black thai ppl, poor thai ppl. And it LITERALLY CANNOT DO ANYTHING EFFECTIVELY IN CAPITALISM. No nothing can be perfect but if it's going into our eyeballs and we can view the worlld critically then why the fuck not!???
I dont say the things i see are wrong always. I reply when i think i need to. I try and engage with others but not to kuch avail. I just want to rb stuff and tdhink lajfhhdjwhjej.
But like yea theres a lot of just wrong or misguided stuff. A lot of the times it is just historical inaccuracy in framing or idk. A refusal to think outside the box. I dont care. Theres more to life than just sort of looking and not thinking especially for othrr artists.
Idk im sorry. I dont see how i can change how i view things. I really wish people would expand their palettes too and go deeper into other means of art from places! Things not in the mainstream! Theres a lot of good thai artists and a lot of them critical as fuck about their country as they should be. Authority, austerity, patriarchy, capital, racism etc like that is central to a power thats interested in growing gains and fiscal and social power. Theres rly radical or left leaning etc ppl out there in the world and these countries in these communities. So they exist. No people in these countries dont have NO clue whats going on. Cultural relativism is alsos something people should understand. I had a good talk with ppl on here a while ago about that. Talking about shit, critiquing, but being respectful to a group. Part of thay is realizing these groups CLEARLY know their own issues and all our cultures share the same goal. Guess what it is. It rhymes with acquiring wealth. Money means you hurt people. In the post, we talked about use of "wife" and "husband" which is a stupid joke that has been "explained" a billion times and yet the explanations still dont seem to answer or justify a minor problem (it's very funny to me that a language that doesnt have gendered pronouns is now very specific about two men. Hmmm wonder why. It is annoying.)
So im not the only person on the planet doing this. Or the few ppl ive seen that do. Im not new my thoughts arent new. Ive gotten to see another side to a culture i knew not much about and that means i can put the context of my beliefs and life and try and understand thheirs. For ex i learned from ITSAY because of a sign that said 'french food' that they were the only country to not be colonized back then. Do you know how integral that history is to their region? That was an interesting detail (i didnt finish itsay bc ihad a lot going on and i was rly upset that i would see hownrich they are and i hate that.)
Anyways thats my complaint. It used to feel like a sting of rejection. I left online for months in 2019, i started organizing more, joined a union, trying to do some panther work shit like that. I learned a lot in those months and it changed my life! But when I came back, I felt so isolated. It wasnt my true friends tho sometimes theyre ANNOYINGGGGG (love u) but it was me being like "if we are going to complain guys then lets put our money where our mouth is" lets be fucking serious about it then. No say it with your chest dude. It isnt difficult. Go with the fucking flow, talk about it, critique it, think. You can still fucking like itnor love it.
I am BLACK ok and i love rap. I am a black woman. I will continue to clown black men that cant seem to not clown themselves and listen. No i wont support monetarily: drake is a creep and i hate him but i bump that niggas song. Thats fucking LIFE. I got so sick of hiding myself and it became clear that it wasnt that i wasntthinking well or hard enough. They just didnt like that i said we need to commit class suicide and inspect out middle class sensibilities and middle class wealth hoarding (google it) if thats what we engaged with. Every part of you, antagonize it. I still have my privileges; class, skin color, even my father being a nigerian immigrant, me being cis, im not str8 but not a lesbian and those are differences.
Insecurities in general but some shallow thoughts (?) on discussion in "fandom" space. FYI, this will most likely stay the same. I tend to stay in my own bubble socially IE me and my friends are similar in our views. During this awful year while running my union's account, im surrounded by like minds. Me and my friends? We changed together. We grew up and saw what we didnt like and what we want. We do our best.And i CHOOSE my life to be that way bc it should be. There is no solution. I dont believe in solutions because the solution is to abolish capital or just divest. Abolishing capital and labor are a huge one and i will die before that happens (but so help me as long as im alive? Black women to FREEDOMMMM is my motto!) so making your own path in life is the best thing an artist can do IN MY OPINION.
However with technology and stuff this puts another layer onto things. Tech, social media, this shit....it THRIIIIIIIVESSSSSSS off of conflict and shallow readings of the world. We are literally primed for it. Engagement in bites. Impossible for me with my brain; i got used to it and i paid for it by limiting my scope. Not being encouraged to THINK AND READ before just speaking
(For ex i am in iww, i helped form a branch here. It is a radical union. Unionism is imprative to me-if ur interested u should read up on some. Look up peter cole! Google inthesetimes Ilwu. Gives you some understanding. Ive always been progressive and now i am....very left idk ic ant label myself. But even in my progrssiveness i had the gall to tell my white friend, whoa has her privileges but i had mine with our class disparity, that we dont need unions, i have WORKED retail. Ive done barista work for sonoing and i do gig work. So i wasnt out of touch. I had been stiffed even with a shoot i was working on by rich kids. So i had a frame of reference . But i didnt know what the FUCKa union was and why it is imperative. Then learning about anarcho syndicalism and all these other things. It changed my fucking life but two years earlier i was this idiot spouting shit like that making one of my best friends fucking upset. We DO AND CAN CHANGE. Think!!!!)
So were i a creator for tv id just constantly try and push the buttons if i need big money. Make them sell into me (thank you sonic youth!) theres Endless possibilities guys which means theres SO MUCH TK EXPLORE!!!! When i wanna have fun with it i just have fun. When i want to think i do. I dont understand why we are so dedicated to upholding things and doing mental gymnastics to end up in a space you dont need mental gymnastics for. What about these critiques makes you uncomfortable? Saying we're all part of the problem as spectators? Im sorry but we will always be. Thats LIFE. God fuck. Fuck me. I feel so fucking worthless and stupid sometimes. I know I am not. I know i am talented and intelligent. I know my friends and family. I know how to approach ppl. I know how to tell people if they are rich but want to be progressive whatsup. I choose how i live part of that is being ok to say what i want.
Ironically consrrvatives say this shit alot. But they arent ever alone bc their ideology is default. But yea it does feel shitty. It even feels shitty when ur in left circles but people STILL dont even wanna do that. These perspectives really arent ss many as they should be. I dont want to feel so alone with it. I know there are more. I just love art and the world so fucking much, endless possibility. Endless pain but endless good.
