#and yet he came to save him

[evilkaeya]

soukoku took trust games to a whole new level like what do you mean you hid antidote in your mouth, joined the villains, got stabbed and was deliberately in a comatose state trusting that your ex partner slash enemy will activate his self destruct stage of ability to come and save you

#mind you the said partner DID NOT know about his plans #and yet he came to save him #WHATEVER HAPPENED TO TRUST FALLS AND. AND OTHER TRUST GAMES #wtf is you used corruption believing in me I'LL K1LL U #akutagawa: we have to reach their level of trust #atsushi: with that attitude of yours? #soukoku #skk #double black #bungou stray dogs #bsd #dazai osamu #chuuya nakahara #bsd dead apple

For the Reluctant Follower Jeremy & Animatronic Vanny AU, I just have more that I finally want to get to share, so:

I mentioned it originally in the first post, but while she was made, and nearly completed, everyone just quickly stopped her progress as quick as it had started.

While there were some complications with her during the process, it wasn’t really the reason for why everyone stopped. Whoever originally wanted Vanny to be built simply made the decision to not have her any longer—simple.

But rather than destroy what they already had, Vanny was simply stored away somewhere else in the Pizza Plex, deactivated. Everything else planned for her was scrapped (her greenroom, etc).

Because of all of that, Vanny never got to meet the rest of the Glamrocks, and vise versa—they were never even told about her. Though, they undoubtedly would’ve met her if she was finished.

Reluctant Follower Jeremy discovered her not too long after he and Glitchtrap arrived at the Pizza Plex, and that was when Glitchtrap made the decision to use her, too. He didn’t want just Jeremy.

Due to her not being entirely finished or anything, malfunctions are rather... frequent, for her.

Similar to Roxy, Vanny is capable of seeing Reluctant Follower Jeremy (whenever he happens to be wearing his rabbit suit, at least).

She may also potentially still have that... glitchy affect, but I’m not too certain. While the animatronics can see her here, and not see Jeremy at all (- Roxy), she still at least messes with their vision a little.

While still wanting to get Gregory, she leaves most of the other parts (such as chasing) to Jeremy. Here, Vanny does something else.

I imagine that Glamrock Freddy and Gregory would run into her somewhere in the Plex, and she’s just like: “I’m not acting like the others :) I don’t know what’s going on, I just activated :)”

And while Glam. Fred is surprised by this new bunny, Vanny ends up accompanying him and Gregory, while trying to ‘help’ him out the entire time.

While her goal is to just, first, gain the two’s trust, and then bring Gregory to Jeremy and Glitchtrap—at least once there’s the perfect opportunity (ex: Glam. Fred is off charging, Vanny is the only one with Gregory).

Sooo.... yeah.

#FNaF AU #Save tag #Not a quote #Reluctant Follower Jeremy would just take Vanessa’s role fully here #Did the VR game/dealing with Glitchtrap/makes a suit/looks for Gregory both in and out of suit/etc #He and Glitchtrap are still important to the AU—but it’s still more focused on Vanny here #I just said whatever came to mind first—there’s still some other stuff around #I have ideas for her design in this AU and I have such a strong urge to draw it #But all everyone would end up getting is just a stick figure or something #You... You know that trope of ‘Character A goes to Character B & others as a spy/pretends to join them/etc but then gradually likes it #‘/Likes being with them’? You know that trope?- I’m sure it has an actual name #I. That may be a little bit of a thing that may happen. I love the trope- but I’m not too certain yet #But. Y’know- there’s just a lot of things that could happen #Vanny #Glitchtrap #Jeremy {Beta-Tester} #Also I have no clue what I should even call him when he’s wearing his own suit

Okay guys, hear me out:

Sea Serpent Hobie!!!

Sea Serpent Hobie who sinks any superyachts he comes across!

Sea Serpent Hobie who uses harpoon spears meant to kill him as piercings! And old anchor chains as jewelry!

Sea Serpent Hobie who attacks big commercial fishing boats that are destroying the ecosystem by overfishing

But also benign Sea Serpent Hobie, who aids those lost at sea!

Who helps smaller local fishing buisnesses with sustainable fishing

Who looks out for this small fishing community and in return they warn him whenever hunters show up in the area!

Sea Serpent Hobie who is huge but still manages to hide perfectly in the kelp forests!

Who has bioluminescence and uses it both to terrify enemies and as a way to calm down people in distress, as a way for him to signal goodwill - and to show off when he feels like it!

Who can change his pigmentation similarly to octopi to communicate his mood and feelings! Or just to blend in with his surroundings (also as a nod to the way he changes filters in the movie!)

Sea Serpent Hobie who's frequently seen swimming with whale pods- Orcas being his favourites to hang out with (they sometimes go on yacht sinking trips together)

Sea Serpent Hobie who likes to give people a show and will show off by breaching right next to unsuspecting boats

DO YOU SEE MY VISION?!??

SEA SERPENT HOBIE!!!!!!💙💙💙

#god I really wanna draw him now! #alas my artistic skills are not great to say the least lol #the idea just won't leave my mind! #idk in my mind he kinda looks like a mermaid crossed with a serpent a whale and an eel #he still has a mostly humanoid face and upper body but with features of the creatures I mentioned above #and also I imagine he's pretty big lol #like meduim to large whale sized big #at least that's how I pictue him but I'd love to hear you guys's interpretation of him! <3 #I love this au so much already it's such a fun concept for him! #I'm sure you could expand on it and fit other spider people into this au as well! #like maybe Gwen is the daughter of a fisherman and Hobie saves her after their boat capsizes or something #but lemme know if you guys have any ideas for this au as well! #this is a brand new au that I literally just came up with so it's not that well developed yet #so any input is very welcome! <3 #there are so many cool possibilities! #I'm unironically so hyped about this ngl! #I keep comming up with more ideas as I write this but I'm gonna try and limit myself for now lol #sea serpent hobie #hobie brown #spider punk #spiderverse #across the spider verse #atsv #across the spiderverse #across the spider verse au #spiderman across the spider verse #my post #my au

I hope The Spot gets to die as a himself like pre-powers. It’s likely he’s gonna destroy himself trying to destroy Spider-man (I think he’s gonna for the mythos of the hero not just Miles, if the flash forward is any prediction) cause he’s either not gonna be able to handle the full effects of his abilities it and needs to be saved but it’s too late for him or does some not fully redeeming sacrifice as he realizes he didn’t have to resort to villainy and doesn’t want to go out with people fearing him rather than respecting.

It’d make the point that anyone can be Spider-man under the mask string as it’d point out that depending on circumstances anyone could become anything. In this case none of them would know The Spot personally or even in passing as Johnathan Ohnn, so seeing a complete stranger, someone who could of been anyone, defeated at the end of the battle would invoke a lot with the random chance and fate that comes along with being Spider-man if not just going through life rather than the adherence to canon events that is trying to be pushed on characters.

I feel like giving the Spot his face back would just make the climax feel more complete, an odd commentary on being true to oneself even if it is past your time.

#cause like every other Spidey villain spiderman usually knew or came to know as Peter #Norman and the goblin harry and the hobgoblin #Felicia and black cat etc #Johnathan wants to be spider mans personal enemy but knows nothing about him if it was for his abilities #like he probably just thinks he is scared of the police captain dying cause he failed to save people or that he’s fond of law enforcement #cause I am certain if he knew Miles was spiderman The Spot would call him that #to fuck with him by knowing his identity #but i digress I think it would show that it really wasn’t personal #cause the spot hated what he became and lost and placed the blame on someone close to the incident but ultimately had nothing to do with it #yeah he blew it up but who was just fucming around with dark matter like wtf John #it’d be rad to have Johnanthan like see Miles face for the first time and be like ur just a kid wat did I almost due gaining some of the #humanity be lost back only to not being able to rectify it cause honestly I’d be horrified if I found out my enemy couldn’t even drive yet #LEGALLY #johnathan ohnn #the spot #miles morales #atsv #itsv #spiderverse #across the spiderverse #into the spiderverse #atsv spoilers

Y’alls hatred toward Annabeth Chase is giving misogyny. SPECIALLY when it’s in favor of y’alls male favs (Nico).

#Mr. Percy Jackson #Annabeth Chase #the fact that Nico was one of my favorite characters until y’all came along #that boy is flawed #he’s made countless mistakes #that’s what makes him a good character #but y’all choose to overlook that to fetishize yet another gay character #y’all are disgusting and i hate y’all #Nico di Angelo #pjo #hoo #like y’all might hate to hear it and hate to see it #but Annabeth Chase is THEE supreme #talking about how Nico is a better hero shut the fuck up #Percabeth #have saved the literal universe countless times #obviously Nico is heroic but be so fucking for real right now #i hate the uwufication of Nico #and the cherry on top is that Nico would agree with me

not me popping back on here with a post after months of semi-inactivity (uni is being a bitch) just to reiterate how much i love writing the pahkitew island cast.

aside from sammy and amy (obviously), literally everyone else can be shipped with one another and it'd make sense to some degree, like it takes skill to create a group of people so inherently shippable (platonically and/or romantically) and ofc the writers didn't know it they just shoved a bunch of random ppl together and dusted their hands off on it but fr tho 😭

(yeah im planning out my leonave 'stranger things inspired' au, and the gears are turning, and i forgot just how much i love writing for this dumbass group)

(i swear im working on the next chapter of a guide to surviving the apocalypse too)

#no but i've way too many ideas lmaoo #i forgot ive a whole longass post in my drafts dedicated to ramblings abt this longfic and i came across it today ahaha #like amy leading a manhunt for leonard bc shes got everyone to think he killed her sister (who she didn't even like much smh) #and topher's one of the ppl involved and when shawn hears he's like “topher? yeah i can handle him dw” (possible tophawn minor pairing??) #and leonard's abt to get the equivalent of being burnt at the stake literally #when guess who shows up in a fucking mercedes of all cars #fucking dave #and he helps leonard escape narrowly by driving fast af and leonard's so confused bc like “i thought you'd be with those guys” #and get this: dave doesnt believe leonard killed sammy bc of his vehement belief that leonard doesn't know magic LMAOOO #and leonard doesnt know whether to be affronted or grudgingly thankful bc if it wasn't for dave's desire for everything to be normal #leonard would have been part of the witch trials 2.0 #and idk who's watched st but the plot is somewhat inspired by it #like shawn goes missing first and dave as his best friend is panicking abt it (in this one axel is shawns cousin???) #and then when they find him at last the weird deaths start leading to leonard finding sammy dead and this whole situation #and theres a whole different world underneath them and its up to leonard dave ella and sky to team up and prevent certain destruction #and theres slowburn leonave (with pining leonard and oblivious dave) #and leonard lives with his uncle whos understanding of his passions (unlike his dad who basically gave him away for the same reason) #and leonard's life is total opppsite from dave's #and they both know it #and omgggg this au has been a brainrot for so goddamn long #but idk why i just got a slew of ideas for it today #and like dave stays over at leonards at one point and leonard gives him his bed (like a gentleman) #and the next morning shawn barges in like “wheres my best friend” bc ever since he was taken he's been v paranoid abt losing the ppl he lov #and he hugs dave and daves like “how dirty are you rn” and shawns like “nothing yet i waited so that i can hug you when i see your dumb ass #and everyones like abt dave to leonard “idk if he's the right one for you” #but then later on dave saves his life by going a little bit unhinged classic dave-style #and ends up scaring a nurse and receptionist into retiring early #total drama #td leonard #td dave

The fact that I went into that first conversation with Gortash completely blind and he somehow managed to be the one that almost convinced me to side with him is just wild to me. Gwydion had been incredibly resistant to anyone (even his partner) trying to get him to be just a little power-hungry, but then Gortash came along and started talk about unity and stability instead of "we're gonna be evil and rule the world" and it was working on Gwydion.

My only thought during the coronation scene was "damn, he really does know Gwydion"

#don't get me wrong i think gortash wpuld have definitely leaned into the 'let's be evil and rule together as evil overlords' thing if he'd #thought it would work #but the conversation had a definite 'oh yes let's be partners again and work to preserve the city and save it from itself' bent #and the fact that he was so sincere about legitimately wanting to be equals with gwydion again #I dunno #all of that really culminated in Gwydion not knowing what to do for the first time that playthrough #when I say he has a very strong personality I mean it. Most 'moral dilemmas' in the game weren't really dilemmas for him #perks of being a paladin #but then Gortash came along and confused all of that for him #I only really found out about their working relationship during that conversation bc I missed a bunch of stuff #so my surprise was genuine when Gortash started displaying fairly intimate knowledge of how Gwy works #I had Gwydion wear Gortash's gauntlet for a bit for roleplay reasons #he didn't remember the man but something in him hurt when that final blow was struck and he wasn't quite ready to move on yet #the dark urge #enver gortash #what's even more wild is i was headcanoning that his paladin oath (devotion) had been sworn to someone other than bhaal before #orin happened #and i could see a pre-tadpole Gwy deciding Gortash was a good person to swear that to so when Gortash #when Gortash started talking about swearing oaths to each other?? #wild #absolutely wild #i did not get enough sleep and it shows #12:43 #bg3

having so much emotions over Jote and Joshua I can’t even articulate, like

#Like I know it looks like this one side unexplored ship at first glance but once you give it a thought #Dear god #their situation is so complex and there is SO much work and healing that need to be done #Especially after you learn more about the undying and put two and two together to see what kind of environment - #- they both grew up in #They are at first glance the master and servant trope #Which isn’t so exciting imo #Until you learn that technically neither of them choose it #You can tell they are two kids who grow up together and ‘saw’ each other #Jote not wanting to let go of Joshua because she knows the burden he was forced to carry as the firebird #Knowing that this path would kill him and she want to save him save her dearest friend #While Joshua seeing how Jote was made to live a life where she have no freedom or life or future #Both wanting to save each other but were powerless against their situation #And at the first chance Joshua gets he let her go #Even though she was the only person who grew to see and love him for just him #Which is his most precious inner wish yet he give that up for her sake #Imagine when he thought for years Clive was gone the only person who saw him and believed in him as him #The loneliness of being a god and a deity and yet Jote came along and mended his heart again #Then he let her go because she deserve to be free #Im in tears #there are more layers then this but #I can’t write all of then in the tags aaaaa #Like do you understand me?? Do you?? #Jote #joshua #ffxvi #Like a big theme in this game is people wanting to carry the burden with their loved ones like come one im crying here

this has to be a metaphor. for something

#robo ramble #im just going to read this as a thinly veiled metaphorical critique for the writing of the guild in xrd. #the writers made him faithful to the DQ blue raspberry misty float. all of his character development thrown in the trash completely #missing the point of the entire guild's story in favor of the dairy queen blue raspberry misty float coming back on the menu. #people liked the taste of the misty float but never got the point of its creation. it was only the taste they wanted. you could've easily #recreated this taste but they sought to return it in the worst way possible. without getting the point either. #that misty float ruined the lives of the people around him. and yet diary queen missed the point in favor of genre defining puppet characte #they wrote him back in and just made everyone around him feel like i guess everything is fine now??? its horrendous. #they made venom continue to be faithful to the dairy queen blue raspberry misty float. they tried to convince him that he had saved his #life all along or something?? #like?????? the fuck. thats awful. horrible taste in my mouth-- LIKE THE HORRIBLE TASTE OF THE DAIRY QUEEN BLUE RASPBERRY MISTY FLOAT. #like if you wanted to make the dairy queen blue raspberry misty float playable again then just revive eddie and only eddie like tf?? you #could've come up with an excuse to make him live without a host. i mean you came up with bedman suddenly reprograming his bed in his final #moments what that doesnt make sense but ok.......... #its better than diary queen blue raspberry misty float #i did it. these gifs have officially made me go insane. please dont read these tags.

You are not immune to the beasthood!

I actually love how much attention is given to the 'beasthood transformation is asymmetrical and is creeping in'. We got:

One eye going blind before the other (presumably has something to do with Djura's and the others' 'pure white' eye color)

The very arm through which people get the blood transfusion from becoming notably longer

The fact that it is the very same leg in which you inject the blood that is believed to be the one through which the beasthood creeps in. (I feel like similar thing happened to it as with the 'transfusion arm, also I will die on the heal that Gehrman had to cut his own leg off, or asked someone he valued to do it

Possible implication between the face getting distorted and obsessive consumption of blood! Lonely Old Dear stacks up Sedatives that are said it lore to be based of the old blood, Suspicious Beggar is basically a werewolf that eats people, and look at THE windowsill of Sceptical man:

*X- files music plays*

Basically, the devs gave a lot of detail and I think this is valid

#bloodborne #bloodborne observation #honestly my take on 'why djura's eyes were white' is not impressive yet.... it makes sense? #at times the truth is found in simplicity i guess #use later #imagine gehrman asking maria to amputate his leg </3 #i still think that since he was the first hunter the superstition of double belts came from him! #because he lost his right leg and he let everyone know why #too bad it doesn't save people's eyes all that much

Mordin's death still hurts. It's been eighty four years since I played ME3, and yet it still hurts. You know it's coming, because no war is without sacrifices, and not all your friends will survive this war despite how hard you try, because not even the great Commander Shepard can stop death. To keep Mordin alive you have to screw over the Krogan by not opening your mouth and convince Mordin not to do the cure. That's all you have to do. But I can't do that. Because as painful as it is to have Mordin die - for him to never go retire on a beach and run tests on seashells and not hold little Urdnot Mordin in his arms, this little future he has given to the Krogan - it's ten times painful to betray Wrex. Keeping my Shepard silent as Wrex and Bakara are hoping and envisioning a future right next to her? Painful. Knowing I would almost single-handedly make the Krogan go extinct? Painful. So while it's painful for me to watch Mordin go up the elevator, to see him take that deep inhale that says he knows his time is up, to hear him humming happily even as the place explodes around him- The pay-off of the Krogan having a future, of having hope, of having a chance to being better and restoring their honour as warriors that they lost decades ago by their own hands will always be worth it to me, and to my Shepard.

#mass effect legendary edition #mass effect #I'm rambling #I honestly don't know where this came from #Mordin's death just hits hard for me because he's literally the first of your crew to die #you kept him alive through the suicide mission and then he dies in the next game #really hits my Shepard hard because she's lost so much in Mindoir and Akuze and she's all about saving people because of that #and yet here she still loses another person close to her despite trying so damn hard #ugh I really need some sleep #Mordin Solus #urdnot bakara #urdnot wrex

i hate them i love them <3 costelloselby core <3 cruel to be kind needle drop..... u know shit's about to go down between them while everyone watches on as they come to blows Again. tears. blood. and then they're like please come here and comfort me and never ever leave me...... 🥴🥴🥴 insanely toxic self-destructive behaviour on selby's end. i don't think i've seen a relationship on tv quite like theirs. like when it's Bad it's hard to watch but you also can't look away.

#when selby not only gambles costello's savings away and also deliberately breaks her laptop......... unforgivable things and he just can't #stop and costello just can't stop loving him despite hating him at the same time. they're such a colossal mess and they think they only #have each other. bc they're connected through their overwhelming love for iris. but jesus christ they're something else #or selby is something else my god that man..... and he wonders why he isn't allowed to legally adopt iris 💀 #and yet you just want them to be a happy family together. oof. #sparks by coldplay just came on shuffle..... yeah. yeah. #(costello has gloria too though thank god whom i love and adore djdkjd and the scenes gloria has with both of them and with iris <3) #rain dogs #rain dogs hbo #rain dogs bbc

#i was planning on killing valiera here anyways so i only brought astarion w me- the rest disapprove- n it got me thinking that #he will always approve of u doing this but the way it is perceived when ur romancing him/actively trying to know him #it becomes less abt trying to save his own skin n more about not wanting to see u get hurt by ur fucked up family like he did #b4 we came her he told rhena not to drink Araj Oblodra potion bc he didnt want to see her in anymore pain #i love these characters each save they become someone new to me like they're a rubik's cube in my hand i have to turn them over n over #i havent decided on ascendant ending or na yet we'll see where the vibes will take us #ugh when u help ur partner out of thier abusive family situation n find peace again in each other okay ill shut up now #bg3

you ever get an idea that is sooooo. arghhhhh bites into a roof tile and cries.

#zanna talks #i cant like word it good yet #but i think if mia ever got to talk to ethan after he died like either bc he came back or a SOR situation or whatever #that she should be allowed to be a little angry at him for just giving up. not facing the aftermath. #like you went somewhere you knew i couldnt follow. you left because you knew i was still here to take care of rose. #but you left us alone. you left ME alone. #YOU KNOW like not bc he's a terrible horrible person for doing that but bc shes human and it hurt. what he did hurt. #and anger is a stage of grief for a reason you know #i am 110% convinced he was only able to do that because she wasn't there for him to look her full in the face and say i'm leaving #you cannot change my mind on this #not bc hes scared of her or whatever the fuck ppl seem to think. but bc he loves her. and how can you do that to someone when you can see #the hurt and the realization and the grief dawn in their eyes you know #anyway. sorry ive been thinking about this so hard i had to stop reading rwrb #putting this all in the tags btw bc iiiii am scared of mia winters antis here on tumblr okay dont come for me ppl let me chill #let me have my little ideas. let me be. #like mia would understand in a way why he did it bc she did the same thing except it was different then #they could have saved him. or at least they could have tried. and he just gave up #meanwhile mias been living with the consequences and the guilt of what she did every day for years now #YKNOW.

guys what if i want to make my own apollo justice game.

#i need to write a prequel to aa4 pls pls pls pls pls #okay get this: so phoenix isnt disbarred yet and he doesnt have trucy. hes still taking and winning cases #one day he gets a call from edgeworth and hes all like ''wright i need your assistance'' and hes like what for and edgeworth goes #''ive been given the most ridiculous case and i think youre the only man in law who can take care of it'' #so phoenix bikes his ass to the detention center and boom. child behind bars #and phoenix is like ??? hey kid what are doing here. and this kid is the most surly mfer on the planet like you couldnt get- #-a word out of him if you tried. hes kinda giving phoenix the stink eye too but hes just the littlest guy on earth #and phoenix feels bad for him so he tries to get a rundown of the case (maybe edgeworth gave him an autopsy report or smth beforehand) #but get this. the kid still wont speak. he hasnt even moved a muscle. and after some prodding you find out this little dude- #-doesnt speak english (i dont love aa6 but i think apollos tragic backstory can be interesting so we're going w that but taking it seriousl #anyways so maya is like omg this kid is speaking khurainese but hers is kinda broken bc shes not from the mainland and only knows it- #-from like prayers #so you only get bits and pieces of the kids testimony. plus he still doesnt wanna talk bc ''dhurk told me not to talk to you'' #so you start following the new lead but you ask too many questions and apollos like oh shit i said too much and wont talk to you anymore #but now you have two leads: khur'ain and a man named ''dhurk'' plus the fact that this is kid might be new to america since- #-he cant speak english but is smack dab in the middle of california. its all v curious and phoenix wants to get to the bottom of it #for the rest of the case i feel like it would go in the direction of ''we dont know exactly whats up w this dhurk guy or where this kid- #-came from but we do get him acquitted and phoenix is able to save him from the dark path he was heading towards'' thus steering apollo- #-in the direction of law and giving him a wayyyy better reason than aa6 gave him <3 #i kind of like the interlinked nature of ace attorney's storytelling. like everything leads into smth else and everyone is impacted- #-by another person before they even become properly entangled w each other's lives #like how mia faced dahlia years before she met phoenix but dahlia was the one to connect them #or how trucy gave phoenix the diary paper but she's also the one who ropes apollo into the waa. even before they know they're siblings #or how lamoire left apollo and trucy as children and when they reunite as adults they cant recognise each other but they all find each- #-other anyways #i could go on but i think this could be cool yknow esp bc i think the most interesting thing about apollo's aa6 backstory is his life- #-post dhurk. like where did he stay? was he a foster kid? was he put into the system? how did that affect him? what kind of ppl took him in #i just wanna know how that whole thing would have effected him bc like when yiu think about it how did he even get to america?? his dad's #-considered a terrorist. idk man i think its interesting and apollo and dhurks interactions are one of the only good parts of aa6
