#btw if she was related to the king would that be fucked up or what
Text
actually i think i will have it so that one of odette's parents was from The Country bc that would make for such a crazy conflict for her bc of her age alone
she's old. approx. late 30s, early 40s. she would've grown up learning about her heritage, her parent's culture, wish craft, the stars, maybe even some of The Country's language. it'd be a huge part of her life--hell, maybe she'd want to get into researching the stars herself because of it.
and then one day, all of that knowledge disappears. everything odette learned about half of her family's heritage and culture, gone in an instant. no memory of any of it--and she probably wouldn't realize it until it's brought up to her.

To hunt or be hunted #2
Pairing: Alastor x Fem!Reader x Lucifer
Summary: Strong statements from the "feared" king of hell, deadly oversights, cute duck-shaped cupcakes and the forgotten terror that lives beneath the hotel enjoying a certain demon's broadcast.
Warnings: Self loathing, a bit of a scare, nothing else I can think of.
Taglist: open...
The crowd, and 102 notes have spoken. Funny enough, things I consider drabbles blow up, and stuff that I like and post stays forgotten, anyways that's life. Feedback is always appreciated btw.
For the ppl that voted One-shot, my request box is open if you guys want to drop something Hazbin related.
Charlie had habilitated a back door for the kitchen, heading to the street, so that groceries and the kitchen supplies that you order could arrive unnoticed and would not bother her guests. Also for you to come and go as you may see fit without drawing, as she called it, ‘Unwanted attention’.
Of course she wasn’t thinking of the swarm of questions that may come your way, but more like if they found out, she would have to break the little image she had worked on all this years, the controlled, nice and loving princess everyone knew; to show a bit of the real menace she can be. She hated exercising her authority over others because of what happened with you, it felt wrong and invasive, so she never wanted to re-enter the same void she had fell through when her mother left.
She still used a more severe tone when addressing to you and her orders, or as she calls them ‘mandatory suggestions’, orders nonetheless, and when she asks you for what you’ve heard around town. She wants to keep up with what the people say about the hotel? Not entirely, she just likes gossip.
When either Angel Dust or Husk asked Charlie where did the food come from, she either said that she ordered it, or rely on the fact that sometimes Nifty cooked, per Alastor’s suggestion, but only when he wasn’t around to bring out the fact that she was lying.
Your ears perked up at some noise coming from the renovated parlor, usually it was just Alastor messing with the king of Hell, which made your eyes roll in annoyance given his lack of battle IQ, but the stubborn stag was mildly protected by the princess’s favor, without it, his head would hang on the king’s wall, probably as a coat rack. Now, that thought brought you a smile and a small laugh.
Later at night, when most demons were fast asleep, Angel Dust tiptoe his way inside the hotel, after a long session demanded by Valentino. He tried no to groan given the fatigue, and as he stretched backwards, making his back crack.
“What the fuck?” he muttered when a candle lit up on top of the new bar table, on top of it lied a plate with a medium rare cooked stake sided with homemade mash potatoes and some sauteed vegetables, next to it a glass of wine and silverware, along with a note that read:
“You failed to attend to dinner, saved you a plate. Enjoy”
He reluctantly took a bite, but after realizing that if it were spiked with anything he would’ve already died, given that drugs in hell had a fast effect when it comes to assassination, he enjoyed every last bit of it, making small moan sounds as he did. He also complimented the selection of the wine. You enjoyed the praises as you saw him eat.
As soon as he made his way back to his room, you took the plate and various items to give them a wash. The next day, Husk earned a kiss on the cheek without knowing what he did to deserve it.
It gave you a warm feeling in your chest when the guests liked your food, even more so when they expected anxiously what would it be for the next day, as you never really published the menu for the week, only the princess knew.
Given Angel’s constant praise, you started leaving protein shakes in his night stand before he woke up, always with a ‘Drink me for strength’ note, same with Vaggie when she started working out in the mornings. Charlie took your gesture and assured that she made them out of concern, which was well received by the rest, but not so much from her towards you.
“What did we talk about laying low?” she turned a bit demonic as she whispered harshly, “If you want to starve yourself to death, be my guest, but you made me the chef of the Hotel since day one, and no one inside this walls will die of malnourishment if I can help it” you well knew of the nasty habit the princess had towards food, by sometimes (often) forgetting to eat, or drive herself to an extent of stress, that she just dismissed breakfast or launch, even both on some occasions.
“Fine. On another subject, my dad will start living here, permanently. He’s Celiac, just so you know” Gluten allergy, that caught you off guard. You made a mental note to replace flours, rice and pastas into a non-glutinous option, same as your pastries for tea time from now on.
“About time you made peace with him” she shot you a warning look but didn’t correct you, “Yeah well, I’m happy about it, it took too long” for a while she felt that it was her fault for her parent’s split, as any child of divorce would begin to feel in the first period of the breakup. That feeling diminished, but hasn’t left her system entirely, no mater how much her girlfriend reassures her of the contrary.
“Arrange his room please, I left a few things lying around, but I have a session, so, can you handle it?” you nodded, satisfied with your answer, or rather lack thereof, she turned into her cheery self. “He left to pack up a few things from the castle, he’ll be back in a few hours, please don’t let him see you” with that last bit, she left the kitchen.
The king’s room wasn’t messy, Nifty wouldn’t allow it, so there were just a few items to place around, and a massive bed to put together, piece by piece no less. It was a Belphegor’s elite brand bed, no less, it had an insane amount of screws and parts, for someone known as the queen of Sloth, it took a serious amount of effort to put up with her products.
Took you two hours to set the whole thing up. Why did it take so long to put together a bed? because when you had it perfect, you noticed that you had three leftover screws, you weren't supposed to have leftover screws, so you disassembled it piece by piece until you found a place for the damn screws. The instructions were worse written than a menu in a Cantonese restaurant when the owner is obviously not Cantonese and wrote up the whole thing in google translate.
You took a big breath, satisfied with your work only when you put on the last blanket over the foot of the bed. “Weight blanket” you muttered with the fabric in between your fingers. Right in between the bedspread and the sheet there was a fairly heavy blanket, it lead to something obvious, two, either anxiety, or the king was missing his wife to the point he needed a weighted hug over him.
Your ears caught the sound of wings, he would arrive in no time.
You only had a millisecond to think, either run to the door and risk being seen, or put on the veil, jump out the window, but you were at penthouse level, that would probably leave you quadriplegic, on the other hand you transferred your tunnel system between the walls from the old hotel to the new one, you would just have to push the fake tile behind the bathroom door.
You ran out of time.
Still in your place, like a statue, you put the veil carefully over your body, this time without your eyes being able to be seen through.
The fallen angel dropped one single portfolio, the same blowing up into a swarm, no, a tsunami of rubber ducks, pieces of clothing, all ending up scattered all over the room, giving you an opportunity to make your way behind the bathroom door.
“Oh Charlie put together my bed? That ought to be a lot of work” he ended the sentence with a singsong tone before jumping onto the mattress. ‘That’s a shit ton of baloney, I bust my ass and the little devil gets credit for it? Fucking fantastic’ you mentally growled.
“Lily, if you could see her, she looks more like you every day” his voice cracked, “I wish…I wished I knew how to help. What could I possibly offer her? Advice? Experience? On what?! falling, being a constant disappointment? She did more things than you and I did in ten thousand years”
“I feel so useless” peeking over the door you saw the tiny king, wrapping himself in his six enormous wings. ‘Majestic’ you thought, after seeing millions of demons since you died, it was the first time you saw someone so beautiful. It made sense, he was indeed the prettiest angel God ever created, the best singer too.
How can someone like that, ethereal, could be troubled by things so…earth bound?
In an instant, he jumped out of bed, brushed up his hair a little, then walked out the door with the most fake smile you had ever seen. Boy you knew about fake smiles.
Later in the afternoon, around tea time, you changed up your regular flour for almond, it was definitely a different experience in terms of texture, but in terms of flavor, it could pass for regular flour, no one was going to notice.
Three types of cupcakes: Salted caramel, red velvet with vanilla stuffing, and cookie dough cupcakes shaped as ducky ones.
Alastor wasn’t a fan of sweets, so a mildly coffee infused cake with a caramel dressing with coarse salt on top, did the trick amazingly. Paired with a nice cup of Orange Pekoe tea to send him down memory lane. When you picked his plate up, there wasn’t a single crumb left.
The rest of the Hotel fancied your pastries, and loved sweets. Red velvet was a well-received classic, but it consisted of a vanilla flavored cake, and pair it with a filling of the same flavor might over do it. Instead, you added orange juice to the mix, the citrus smell with the sweet vanilla swirl on top were the sensation in the redemption session.
The only questionable thing about the mix was the berry tea that Charlie liked to drink during her sessions.
You baked small batches of cookie dough balls only a quarter of time, then poured the gluten free vanilla cupcake batter on top of it, keeping the cookie cooking at the bottom while you prepared the chocolate icing. When still warm you used a duck shaped scraper for the cake to take shape, then use the icing to make spikes, horns and little faces on them when it had cooled down a bit.
Why were you making special things for him? Pity? Empathy? Maybe both, but you were far too busy remembering the steps to the king’s room to bother.
All the ducks seemed organized, it definitely was the same mess, but perhaps there was some sense in his insanity. The plate was placed carefully in his night stand, along with a saucer and the tea cup filled with chamomile tea.
“Stop, freeze right there” you were about to place the hand written card when the distorted voice of the king froze your nerves in place, good thing that you were wearing the veil.
“Riddle me this, I’m connected to your every step, but I’m not your shoe. What am I?” he was near but stayed right in your blind spot, as he walked towards you. “Answer” his voiced sent chills down your spine, made your teeth sharpen as well as your claws, and your ears perk up defensively.
“You’re a shadow” your answer brought in him a subtle laugh, “Even through that shield of yours, dear, you cast a shadow, I saw a glimpse of it make it’s escape through the bathroom” was it that simple? Did anyone else in the Hotel had been as perceptive as him, no they would’ve ask Charlie or Alastor about it.
“So? How long have you been lurking in the Hotel?” walking past you, he brought up the tea cup to his lips, making a grimace, “Drink it, you look either sick, or worse, anemic, you’re three tones paler than your daughter” he shrugged, apparently aware of his state.
“I believe I asked you a question” his eyes shifted colors, just like Charlie’s, “None of your beeswax” you couldn’t tell him even if you wanted to, “I’m your King” the little heavy step he did was hilarious, but laughing would’ve get you killed.
“So what?” he widened his eyes at your boldness, dismissing it entirely after a laugh, “Mm, how about you answer my question and then I might consider letting you go?” his boot was on the edge on the veil, one move and he would see you, “How about you stop being a bull on me and enjoy my cookin’?” he took a moment to actually see the cupcakes, a tender smile drawn on his face.
When he looked back at where you where, all he saw was the veil falling gracefully to the ground, likewise it dissolved into the air.
“I fucked up” your heart throbbed painfully in your ear; the rush was real.
Your room was underneath the Hotel, a system of catacombs led to different fates to those stupid enough to enter, only you and the princess knew of the correct way. The space wide consisted of black brick walls, a twin size bed placed on the corner, a wooden wardrobe, the rustic eighteen hundreds themed bathroom, and a set of seven iron candle holders screwed to the wall.
“Good afternoon Hell!” Alastor’s voice became present through the radio you kept on your night stand, “I’m in a jolly mood on this occasion, a well baked pastry would put a smile on anyone, even in the crankiest demon in hell” he laughed, then continued on topics from a simpler time, then the screams of his new victim.
You rested your tachycardia on your bed, focusing on your breathing and Alastor’s voice, to make your heart slow down to a normal pace.
“Thank you for listening, it was a pleasure to entertain you. Now, a small request from a friend in between the walls, I hope you enjoy this one, dear” he placed the dusted vinyl on the player, allowing it to roll one of your most liked songs, Cuban Moon by Carl Fenton’s Orchestra.
Slang, jazz, the demoness that haunted Alastor’s brain was definitely from his timeline, probably the same state he lived in. But what really itched his brain, was the axe. “It’s an unorthodox method to kill someone, the blade loses its edge quickly and it would require a brutal force to cut through bones…unless” he pondered over an open binder with pieces of old newspaper that fell with him, parts of the news were about him, but the front page was about someone else.
The next day, Lucifer walked fast down the stairs, grabbed Charlie by her shoulders and demanded, “Who is she? The demon living in the walls?”.
Your note for Lucifer read the following: "Someone who swore to love you through sickness and health, and still left, is not worth your tears."
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Baloney: same as nonsense or bullshit
None of your beeswax: Slang for 'none of your business'
Bull: Slang for police-man
Stay tuned ;3 Part 3

I just finished Marvel’s Echo and I was excited to go on Tiktok so people’s thoughts and opinions.
That was my first mistake.
Cause all everybody wanna mention is either CGI and Daredevil, or just some shit that didn’t involve the show at all. And I’m like… what is wrong with you people? Like genuinely.
Echo is a good show. Is it a 10/10, no. But not even show or movie needs to be a 10/10. People’s obsession with perfection to the masses is crippling the entertainment industry. Not every movie is gonna be like Avatar or Endgame. Not every series is going to be like ATLA or Stranger Things. There was a time that people cherished mediocre tv shows and movies. The early 2000s is FULL OF THEM. But we still ate that shit up, and still do till this day.
Echo was about taking the wrong path after experiencing pain. It’s the two paths that we see every hero face. It’s the good side or the bad side. Maya chose the bad side, which we don’t see that often. And the story is also about connecting back to your roots after cutting that part of your life out. As a person of color, I instantly related to that shit and I loved how they portrayed it. The dialogue was great. The comedy was great, and it didn’t seem to be out of place either. The tone was great as well.
The only criticism I have of the show that at time it didn’t feel like there was much of a beginning to end when it came to the plot. But other than that, I don’t have any problems with this show.
And spoilers, btw, but when Maya and King Pin came face to face in like the final showdown or whatever, I kind of like the direction they went with. Maya didn’t defeat him by beating the shit out of him or killing him. No she defeated him by fucking with his head. She showed him his deepest pain and FORCED him to come in terms with that shit. And it fucked him up so bad that he had to leave!
I give the show a solid 7.5/10. I would even raise it up to 8 just because of the cinematography, the music, and the filmmaking. The filmmaking of this show was spot on.

I'm so sorry, I need to go into Lore...
So... there isn't much power scaling in lore right. Venti says of himself he's the weakest Archon and that's kind of it (I think he's lying btw, but that's beside the point).
I think Nahida and Rukkhadevata don't have any show cases of their raw power/strength, I think creating the Rain Forest is Rukkhadevata's doing.
We don't yet have much info on Egeria and Furina.
Makoto wasn't particularly powerful but a great strategist and good with her people, Makoto was the brains, and Ei the brawns. Ei's biggest achievement probably is killing Orobashi and cutting Yashiori Island up in the process. I assume she's slain a few other gods too during the Archon war, but I thinkkkk, there has been no explicit mention of it. But perhaps she's quite near the top.
Murata in Natlan... I could imagine they might come out on top, because sheer force/power is a pyro thing.
We don't really know anything about the Tsaritsa as far as I know.
And then there's Morax...
terraformed Guyun Stone Forest by hurling mountains at other gods
terraformed/raised Mt. Tianheng after Liyue was flooded so his people would be safe
terraformed Jeuyun Karst
one shot some random god that abused the fuck out of Xiao
ruthlessly killed numerous other gods (confirmed in lore)
dug out some random geo dragon, giving him sight like it's no big deal
creates life that somehow can flattens mountains (mind you how special the art of khemia seems to be for creating life, looking at you albedo who's oh so powerful for creating crystal flies no shade I love you bby)
was still more than confident to take on Osial, should Liyue not have been able to protect itself
BUT, ya know what had him struggle?
Azhdaha.
Zhongli does state that he had a hard time confronting the eroded Azhdaha, "let alone seal him away" (Zhongli's own words).
He called 3 other Adepti to help and they still struggled, so in the end Azhdaha's benevolence won, remembered the contract he had with Morax and he let himself get sealed away willingly.
And see, the thing is; while Azhdaha has quite a few titles that mighttttt imply that he is the Geo Dragon Sovereign - Like, he's refered to as "Sealed King of the Geo Dragons", "Dragon King", "Lord of Vishaps", which is in line with how the Hydro Dragon is refered to, as well as the other sovereigns. (Zhongli does refer to him as THE Earth Dragon) - there's no confirmation yet.
But you could probably make it a case that he's at the very least related, or part of the same race as the Sovereigns.
WHICH GIVES YOU TWO OPTIONS,
If you think he's the Geo Dragon, then - Geo Dragon without his full draconic Authority still overpowers an insanely powerful god + Gnosis + 3 Adepti.
Or
He's "just" some minor Geo Dragon (Possibly similar'ish to Dvalin), that still overpowers a god + Gnosis + 3 Adepti, which should speak volume about the sheer power of a Sovereign that has their full power.
... So like, I don't doubt that if Neuvillette gets his full power back by the end of 4.2's Archon quest, he's very much dwarfing Zhongli and would be, at least among the currently known/playable characters, the most powerful one.

Hi ❤️ I was wondering, how did you like New Spring if you've finished reading it?
Personally I think it was a great choice to read it even before getting into the Eye of the World and I enjoyed all the details about Moiraine, Siuan and Lan's backgrounds/relationships. It made reading EotW even a little easier to me. The only complain I have is that it was too short 🥲
BTW do you have any favorite parts that you'd like to see as flashbacks on the show?! I would love to get a scene of Moiraine and Lan meeting for the first time or their first bonding!
Oh no! I am so, so sorry for not replying sooner. I really didn't mean to leave you hanging. I was excited to receive this question, and then neglected to respond for...two weeks? Oh boy. I apologize.
I did truly love New Spring. Ripped through it in a couple of days over my reading break (a highlight!). I actually totally agree with you re: reading order. I'm not particularly stringent about that in any case, but I say, if you most ardently adore enjoy a character, just dive in and read everything ever directly written about them :D
It has now been a while since I read it, but I think that most of all I appreciated these very flawed, smart, and funny characters it brought to life. I've mentioned this before in a post, but I'll say it again as many times as possible: I love (love! LOVE) Mo's social ineptitude. Or at least that she treats most social interactions like a dramatic performance, where she has to put on a certain face based on her training and her upbringing. I find the part of the book where she learns about power structures in the Blue Ajah, and the fact that she picks up on this complicated dance of deference and authority that someone (Eadyth?) must then explain verbally, to be incredibly moving. Who among us hasn't felt the temperature of an intricate web of social relations, not natural but cultural (or maybe a combination of the two, where difference is felt and ostracized accordingly, sometimes in a very insidious and subtle way) and been utterly confused, and wished that someone would just explain what the fuck is going on between people? All of this says a lot about her background: culture, class, and also her particular brand of neurosis. I find it very endearing and more relatable than I care to admit (outside of this space). Yeah, also I think she's autistic. I'm nd as all hell and I think so, so it must be true.
Also, I love that we get mean Mo. Impatient Mo. Stubborn, obstinate, and immature Mo. She really did grow up with Lan. I think that's gorgeous. These two are actually kids when they meet, and then it's just them for 20 years on the road, and they learn to be PEOPLE, and to not communicate, and to fulfil the roles that are required of them/all that their duty really entails/how to navigate the politics of their world. Just the two of them. I would kill for flashbacks to times after they initially bonded, and how they were able to grow so close after a rather sticky beginning. I think the answer lies in the empathy that is inherent in a bond. Lan sees Mo as a stubborn child, but when he finally feels the fear and doubt and uncertainty she struggles with every day... a child doesn't normally feel those things. She struggles with the weight of the responsibility that has suddenly been thrust upon her, a responsibility that, to her great credit, she approaches bravely and willingly. Mo, too, can't stand Lan at first (I personally think she is jealous of his gravitas and his calm: we know she wants to be that way, but can't yet. Not until she grows up a little more), but she will soon meet the man who has been raised from birth to be the king of a nation that no longer exists. And what that does to a person. And exactly why Lan must be the way that he is (and how much she can learn from him). Also, I actually cried laughing and just gleefully clapped and giggled when Mo was pranking Lan and her inner voice was just...so conniving and sneaky and clever. "He would meet the wasps in perfect health." I genuinely think it's the funniest line ever written (perhaps that says more about my dumb sense of humour than RJ's comedic ability, but to his credit, he is really fucking funny sometimes).
And I can't end my little rant without talking about Siuan. I so appreciated the chance to get to know this character, who is introduced so beautifully to us in the show at the height of her power. As someone who is more than a little bossy, strategic, and clever, and who is very accustomed to being in control of a room. I love seeing what that looks like in a young person. She has the confidence, personality, and work ethic, but not yet the experience to be an effective leader. However, she leads Moiraine. And Moiraine likes it and she lets her. Again, relatable. More than I care to admit outside of this space. I also am fascinated by the cultural and class differences between the two women. The qualities they share (curiosity, drive, ambition, and so, so much integrity) are almost outweighed by those differences (Siuan is measured where Mo is impulsive, Siuan is frugal where Mo spends lavishly, Siuan is irreverent and unconstrained by the expectations of her rank, while Mo is and has always been bound by them). It's cool to see how they change one another. And the ways in which they remain unchanged into adulthood. Right up until we meet them together in the show. Also I think it's really fucking cute that Moiraine wanted to sugar momma Siuan so bad that she tried to buy her a horse. Who?? among us?? hasn't lived that fantasy?? No? Just me? (I would love to sugar momma my baby girl, if only I had the means).
Will you tell me what you thought about it, too? I would love to hear all of your thoughts. What would you like to see explored in the show?
Thank you so much for your thoughtful asks. I love answering them, even when I take too long.

Goodness, you're probably one of the very few who don't think Aegon will ever get KL! Congrats, I'm of the same mind (there's probably not many of us, lol) How do you think Euron's story will unfold though? I see him allied with Cersei, like the show had it. I don't think he will have anything to do with Daenerys apart from destroying any chance for her to get the throne before seeking for the North's allegiance. I see the Ironborn split in three, Euron-Cersei, Theon and Asha with the North and dear Vic with Dany. Thoughts? BTW what about the Forsaken?
Hey anon, sorry about the delay.
These would be my thoughts on The Forsaken. :)
I used to be extremely skeptical of the Euron-Cersei alliance on the show, but after rereading the books I'm less sure. A few things stood out.
There's Cersei's escalating obsession with acquiring her own fleet, which directly parallels Daenerys' ambitions.
The new High Septon would doubtless wring his holy hands, and the Braavosi would squeak and squawk at her, but what of it? "The monies saved will be used for the building of our new fleet." - Cersei IV, AFFC
There's the vulnerability of Blackwater Bay, which Cersei fully grasps.
"Lord Merryweather is right," said Lord Waters. "If it please Your Grace, I will launch the rest of our new dromonds. The sight of them upon the Blackwater with King Tommen's banner flying from their masts will remind the city who rules here, and keep them safe should the mobs decide to run riot again."
He left the rest unspoken; once on the Blackwater, his dromonds could stop Mace Tyrell from bringing his army back across the river, just as Tyrion had once stopped Stannis. Highgarden had no sea power of its own this side of Westeros. They relied upon the Redwyne fleet, presently on its way back to the Arbor. - Cersei X, AFFC
There's all the times she's constantly told of Euron's dominance at sea. It's easy to imagine her being drawn to that.
Without the Arbor and its fleet, the realm could never hope to rid itself of this Euron Crow's Eye and his accursed ironmen. - Cersei IX, AFFC
There's the offer that was made by Balon Greyjoy to form an alliance with her father, which no doubt lingers in the depths of her mind.
Cersei's mouth was dry. I need a cup of Arbor gold. If the ironmen decided to take the Arbor next, the whole realm might soon be going thirsty. "Stannis may have had a hand in this. Balon Greyjoy offered my lord father an alliance. Perhaps his son has offered one to Stannis." - Cersei VII, AFFC
And then there's this line, which made me itch.
Varys would have known, Cersei thought with irritation. "I do not propose to climb in bed with that sorry pack of squids. Their turn will come, once we have dealt with Stannis. What we require is our own fleet." - Cersei IV, AFFC
Other than that, I mostly keep going back to three things.
Cersei is a foolish and desperate woman, who consistently forms ill-advised alliances.
Cersei's and Daenerys' storylines faithfully parallel each other. If one does it, the other follows suit. What does that mean if Daenerys accepts Victarion Greyjoy as an ally?
Cersei's enemies are the same people Euron is and will be targeting. Is that intentional? In relation to this, is there a reason why the author chose to have Euron sail past the Westerlands and directly proceed to the Reach?
My apprehension is because of Euron. He's so unlike his show counterpart, it's almost difficult to envision him as being capable of making alliances. What use does he have for Cersei Lannister?
I'm still on the fence, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if it broke down like you've predicted: Cersei - Euron / Daenerys - Victarion / Jon + Sansa - Theon + Asha.
With regards to how I see his story unfolding, I think he's going to fuck a lot of shit up, until Daenerys and Victarion stop him. Lol

If anyone is like me and enjoys other peoples relationship drama and stories from idiot man children this is something you will thoroughly enjoy.
Not related to these stories at all but I just want everyone who sent me kind words today and yesterday to know that I read all of them and I appreciate every single one of them!
They helped cheer me up a lot, or rather level out. Yeah that's a better word.
I want all to know who had been following my freak out last night that I read through our argument text from last night after I left his house, just a little bit ago. I've gone from sad to just mad honestly.
I thought it was funny that like his main gripe in our relationship. Like his BIGGEST hang up, an unforgivable act in his eyes I guess... you ready for this? To hear the worst thing I ever did to this man child?
Two summers ago he asked me to do this couples golf tournament with him like mid summer, July, so it was hot as hell. I get terrible migraines when I get too hot. He knows this. Everyone who knows me knows this. I have a medical condition. So I told him. "No because I'll get sick" APPARENTLY he never let that go. has not brought it up sense. I even forgot about it. he legit never breathed a word about it. Didn't say it made him mad or sad, nothing.
I was like "So I should have gone even though I don't know the rules, can't hit the ball further than a few feet and actually can't stand in the heat for too long with no shade? Was I just supposed to go and get sick for you?" and you guessed it! That answer was "YES >:(" He said I was being very selfish and I know know much he likes to golf.
Also for some people saying that maybe we could go to Italy together if he still has his ticket. He also never bought his ticket and he just fucking lied about it. Idk what he was going to do come May and I was ready to go. He would have probably gaslight me and come up with some convoluted lie on how his ticket got all messed up or something.
ALSO!! if you want to know just how big of a man child I delt with for 5 years. Here is another tiny little story of the 10 billion I probably have. I had to go to the court house to get the papers for his passport because he 'didn't know how'. You legit walk in go to teh clerk and say 'passport papers porfavor'. Then you go home. THEN he didn't even fill it out. He took it to his parents house and had his MOMMY do it for him. He's in his late 20's btw.
He lied to me and told me HE filled out the passport information but I know he didn't because his mom had mentioned to me that she was the one who did it for him because she thought it was 'ridiculous he couldn't do it himself'. I never told him I knew he was lying and just let him lie. She said that he said it was because he "didn't know where he was born" what grown adult human does not know the city they were born in? Honestly I never called him out for it because I was embarrassed for him. Gave me such ICK. My 12 year old nephew could tell me the town he was born in...He is the KING of weaponized incompetence.
ALSO!
He would legit pretend he couldn't find the dish washer pods in his OWN HOUSE that he bought and put away under the sink. So he would never wash dishes no matter how many time I showed him how to use the dishwasher. He would pretend he couldn't do laundry to. Towards the end of our relationship when I got tired of being his mommy. I stopped putting his clothes away and would fold them and place them in the hamper right next to the closet so he could put them away and he would never put them away and his cat would lay on them and they would get covered in hair and he would wear cat hair covered clothes out just to spite me I think. We would be walking into a nice restaurant and I would be quickly picking cat hair off his clothes in a rush so he looked somewhat put together. He also never cleaned his cats litter box which really irritated me because I don't really like cats for this reason but I also couldn't let her have a dirty box. I had told him when we got together it's HIS cat and he needed to continue to take care of her as if I were not there. He didn't do that, he couldn't even be bothered to wash out her food dish to get the old wet food out before putting new in. So I just did that to. I want to make it very clear to everyone though he CAN do these things. He just didn't because he knew I would do it.
I always knew he was immature and a big baby but I never let myself think it for too long because I would 'feel bad'. But oh my god our maturity levels were not syncing up.

Would you look at that? Another update? So soon? Well, it's to be expected after WHAT I've read today hahah... 3 ½ hours of losing my mind, definitely worth an update! Reached chapter 1177 thanks to the desperation to reach a safe spot!
God, there's so much to talk about. I have to restrain myself from just endlessly talking about how much I love Klein Moretti rn. Like. So much. I will definitely be sprinkling my love for him in this post. A lot. I'll do that a lot.
OK, FOR A THOROUGH DISCUSSION, I'll pick up the chat from the ending of volume 5. Which means I'll talk about like... 20 chapters? Hm. They definitely felt more than 20 in number.
Amon kidnapped Klein after Klein successfully destroyed King George III's ritual, so he was exhausted and spent. Perfect opportunity for Amon, ngl.
The subsequent time spent together was full of ups and downs. Amon gave Klein hope that was barely in his reach until BOOM the reveal that it wasn't an avatar, but the actual true body! Man, wasn't that stressful.
That also came with the realization that Amon can't bear the risk of stealing Klein's destiny just like that. Win! For now...
We reach the destination that Amon was going for (in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, btw!! God, what a crazy place...) and there, ANOTHER motherfucking bomb gets left at our door.
Fucking Chernobyl. Fucking- it's Earth! It's always been Earth!
(That was spoiled in a partial manner to me. Like, I saw someone mention "Chernobyl" in relation to LOTM and I was like "wait what? No way- AH, NO THINKING ABOUT IT. IT'S SPOILERS" but inevitably I connected some dots.
Like, I distinctly remember how Roselle attempted to bring forth the industrial revolution, but when he searched for oil and such fuels, he was unsuccessful. Which made me think about the Chernobyl thing and wonder if the previous humans used it all up and eventually perished, but then another civilization rose and that's the present.
But uh. I didn't know about the fact that the ancestors of vampires and elves are ALSO humans?? Like wow. Incredible)
Paired with that comes the realization that Klein can't go home. Technically, he IS home. Just... not in his era :') AGH I cried. ESPECIALLY when he conjured the silhouettes of people dear to him that have long since perished. IT WAS SO SAD WBSJJDJD Man...
After that dreadful discovery, Klein doesn't let that stop his desire to escape Amon, implementing Another escape attempt, helped by the Evernight Goddess. Gosh, his escape attempts were so creative! And the interactions between him and Amon were so funny after them too lmao
Anyway, after Chernobyl, Klein digested the Scholar of Yore potion successfully AND escaped to Sefirah Castle after committing suicide (what an ODD way to escape).
And next, we have Klein thinking of ways to get back on his feet AND analyze his experiences. Which brings us to the NEXT big thing!
The third "transmigrator" is in fact the Evernight Goddess!
(Ok, I got fully spoiled on that. Booooooo...)
Still! She's taking such good care of Klein <33 what a lovely lady <33
During the Tarot Club, he put in motion his plans: collecting what he needs for the Miracle Invoker potion and strengthening the Tarot Club.
And thanks to the combined effort of Pallez, Derrick and himself of course, he successfully revived in the City of Silver and ran away! Yay!
That's where I am right now. But Man, the road to getting here was emotional.
Poor Klein... hunted from so many directions, no home to return to, friends and family to protect.
And let's not ignore the fact that Klein successfully escaped Amon!!! I mean, SURE, Amon was "playing" with him in a way. But that doesn't mean he wasn't taking Klein seriously, he just had a different goal than killing Klein, which was to take ownership of Sefirah Castle.
Klein is so resourceful, so determined, so intelligent. I adore himmm! Ahhhh and sometimes, he makes me sad, but he keeps going and that's just... hah... admirable.
Praise the Fool! Can't wait to read more, but definitely not tonight. Finally reached a point where I can close the book with a light heart, I'm not risking starting another stressful arc hahahah...

Okay. alright, I needed a separate post to go in detail, because now I'm pumped! BTW I only quickly looked up the bijuus’ references to have some guidance, so they might not be all exact, I also went a bit by their appearaces alone.
Unfortunately I can’t fit the number of tails, but this is a great excuse for me to ramble about these lovely myths to anyone interested.
Ichibi Shukaku, the shapeshifting tanuki - I might be probably forgeting some, but I decided to go with an animal I like. It kinda matches how bloodthirsty Shukaku was in the begining, but it’s a bird instead. Matinta Pereira is a little owl (sometimes mistaken or also described as a potoo) that brings the news of death. Sometimes it takes the shape of a witch, other times is an old man seeking petty regenge. Another nice detail: since both tanukis and kitsunes are somewhat tricksters, the Matinta is actually sometimes related to the creature I chose for Kyuubi too.
Nibi Matatabi, the cat ghost - The obvious here would be to go with the Alma-de-gato (Cat soul) which is literally a shadow or spectral cat that appears to haunt children who misbehave, silently staring into their souls with (literal) burning eyes. Totally fits and I’d be happy with it. BUT if we take what looks the most like the beast in the series and just overall vibe, I’d have to go with Boitatá. Nothing to do with cats, just a giant fire snake with its body covered in eyes. This myth is actually closely related to the will-o'-wisp so many times the fire is made blue
Anon says “Boitatá would make a fucking awesome bijuu let’s be honest” and that is true! Boitatá IS one of my favorite myths for a reason! Not only it looks badass the legend says the snake protects fields and forests from anyone trying to set illegal fires by blinding them, or driving them into madness or just straight up killing them.
Sanbi Isobu, the sea demon - Here I picked the Ipupiará who’s basically another sea demon, though more humanoid, kind of resembling a mermaid, but more of a walrus shaped one. There are multiple stories and creatures similar to this one, but I like the older and more murderous version for this. Option TWO is another one of my favorites (another giant snake, of course it’s another snake): Boiúna, the black snake. A huge, river long, pitch black snake with flame red eyes, that just scares anyone living by the rivers by sinking ships or straight up swallowing them. Neither of these has any moral or motivation, they’re just beasts.
Yonbi Son Goku, the monkey king - For this one I went with the idea of an “Imposing monkey-like creature” and got: Mapinguari, this huge, smelly, man devouring monster. These monsters, mostly known in the amazon region, easily stand at over 2 meters tall, sometimes depicted with a single eye in the forehead and with a huge mouth full of razor sharp teeth stretching all the way to the bellybutton. They attract the prey by screaming like desperate humans and deceiving people to go help. To have this one as a source of power is nice, but wouldn’t be nearly as respectable as the original.
Gobi Kokuou, Hanging horse head and ghost whale - Okay so a horse. that’s easy: Mula sem cabeça, literally a Headless horse, with fire coming out of its neck. This one is widely known in the country so it has many MANY variations, but the shape is what matters here, so ‘only head horse’ for ‘no head horse’. Not sure how to fit the whale ghost part :(
Rokubi Saiken, the shellfish ogre - Alamoa! I’ve been told not many people know about this one?? But searching for this shellfish ogre, the wiki description fits quite perfectly with the Alamoa. She is a storm (thunder? lightning?) ghost, who appears on stormy nights dancing naked in the beaches of Fernando de Noronha. She is very pale and with near white blonde hair and attracts fishermen with her beauty and treasures, only to trap them and turn into an skeleton before killing them.
Nanabi Choumei, a rhinoceros beetle - This one was surprisingly hard, but let’s go with a simple one: Minhocão (literally big worm). Huge worm like creature living in rivers or underground that also goes around sinking ships. I would also take the ‘lucky seven’ joke and turn it around by using Caapora (out of the numerous names, this is the one I’m most familiar with), who is said to bring bad luck! Caapora can be an angry little girl, a creature with red skin and hair or even a cyclops, they ride a boar (queixada) and cause depression and bad luck to whoever meets them.
Hachibi Gyuki, the cow demon - Immediate choice: Boi Bumbá (with many name variations). It’s an annual performance/celebration telling the story of death and ressucitation of an ox. There’s a lot of dance and colorful outfits involved so it makes for a nice visual for a magical beast. BUT I also remembered a more regional one called Boi Vaquim: a winged bull with golden horns and diamonds for eyes that spits fire. How badass is that?
Fun fact: ‘boi’ is the actual portuguese word for bull/ox, but in native tupí language ‘boi’ stands for snake so we have the snakes boitatá and boiúna.
Kyuubi Kurama, the kitsune - Absolutely NOTHING to do with foxes, but I’m going to pick Saci! Simply for the trickster nature. Sacis are probably the most famous supernatural creature in brazilian mythology. They vary in shape (can be human or have goat horns and beard or bird foot), size (from tiny little fairies living in flowers to 2m tall with scales and claws), power (can create small tornadoes, grant wishes, spoil food), nature (they go from harmless and inconvenient pranks to kidnapping children and beating up animals to death), but the base look is of a pitch black humanoid creature - most times a black boy - with a single leg and red pointy hat. Option two for visuals: Maned wolf.
#not art#Brazilian folklore#I hope it's entertaining or enlighteing#in english because i need the world to know abt these gems#maybe one day ill get around to drawing something based on this

i hope they explore almond's idolisation of daemon (flop) vs daeron looking up to ser criston and how the latter besides his one in a blue moon rage fits is the much more reasonable of the two
still kind of funny to me how daemon could intimidate two kingsguards with a dragon and everyone just moved on because ser criston has been somehow bestowed with the role of violent masculinity and when daemon does it he's the rOgUe pRinCe.
btw still trying to wrap my head around the whole aegon/alicent anal r*pe rumours what in the hell where they cooking 😂😭 they were probably going to steal the whole mad king aerys "we cant protect her from HIM" line
That's a thought.
I would guess they'd tie into the Second Son syndrome and how Daemon and Aemond relate to being the spares to brothers they view as bad kings and believe they deserve the Iron Throne for themselves. Yet, they're handicapped by an inherent love and care for that older brother.
But while I think Daemon does what he does to get Viserys's attention. I think Aemond does what he does cause he knows, even from a young age, that his job is to protect his family - Alicent and his siblings. So the more crazy stunts that Aemond does, the more he's flexing as a warning to anyone who wants to fuck with his family. But those crazy stunts are inspired by the antics of Daemon who no one really knows but maybe Rhaenyra are just for Viserys's benefit.
On the other hand, I think that Daeron perhaps isn't as inspired by Criston as he is by Alicent. He is the most like her in look and personality. And I think they'd probably draw more of a line between Young!Alicent from 1x01 - 1x05 and Daeron than they will about any overlap in his and Criston's storylines. But I do think that Daeron is absolutely 1000% Alicent and Criston's son, maybe not biologically, but in terms of how he was raised and what his values and principles are. I would expect Daeron to look at Alicent and Criston as his parents, and Alicent and Criston would view Daeron as their child together.
Daeron strikes me as being in the same position as his teenage mother was at his age. He had no designs on the crown, he doesn't want power, he just wants everyone he loves to be safe. He will give good advice and a legendary commander of strategy, but will be very moral centered and will try endlessly to do the right thing. But just like Alicent finding out about Criston and Rhaenyra in 1x05, the death of Maelor will trigger Daeron to become a lot more hardened and darker. I think Bitterbridge will be his transformation from Young!Alicent in 1x05 to his own form of Adult!Alicent we meet in 1x06. And from then on he'll have to grapple with doing the right thing and the violent ruthlessness of being the last Green standing in a apocalyptic grade total war.
I think there's a lot of surface level comparisons between Daemon and Aemond ...
But I think there is a lot of soul deep comparisons between Alicent and Daeron as characters - there is a reason that GRRM goes out of his way to conflate Alicent and Daeron together.
Yeah, that rumor has been going on for awhile, ever since GOT Con during the Aegon panel. There is a scene in the Sapochnik treatments of Season 2 where Aegon reveals something to Aemond just before they fight Rhaenys at Rook's Rest ... and a lot of people suspected that it was either Aegon saying that he knew about Aemond and Helaena's relationship or that he had been having sex with Alicent the entire time. And it was bad enough that Aemond hesitates to help Aegon and later loses control of Vahgar and she ends up attacking Aegon and Sunfyre instead of Maelys due to Aemond's anger toward Aegon.
I hope it isn't true ... I'd like more nuance in these characters and much less nihilism in Team Green.

ok lyserg and jeanne propaganda before the polls start because everyone needs to know how fucked up they are (part one of more than one featuring me explaining things poorly)
(this is the one picture I have of them together. it's also of their corpses from this one time they both died. will not be touching on that yet)
this does require me to explain the basic plot of shaman king which is annoying because it's dumb
ghosts are real. some people can see ghosts. and talk to ghosts. those people can also put ghosts into objects to give them a physical form (this is our shonen power system. what). possession is also a thing but it gets replaced with the other one 10% in so it's irrelevant. there is this one ghost that's better than all the other ghosts (the great spirit). every 500 years there's a tournament to see who can become the shaman king and use the great spirit to do. stuff I guess? the shaman king is basically god, which is handy for this poll because the guy who becomes god is a catboy mass murderer (his name is asakura hao btw)
this brings us to part one of godly trauma, the part with god in it (it is the less significant godly trauma. step up your game hao). hao is just generally a menace who has committed many many crimes, most notably killing our boy lyserg's parents. this makes lyserg really mad because how else would you react to that and he dedicates his entire life to revenge.
enter the x laws, the guys who are really really fucked up. the x laws are what some wiki described as an "extremist group" which is true but they're a cult in my heart. the x laws are a group of people who hao did crimes at (which is really funny when you remember 90% of them are in their 30s or older and hao's body was like, 5 when he did crimes. btw he's the reincarnation of this onmyoji from 1000 years ago it's not important moving on). they were founded by these guys who's car dealership got burned down, and so they picked a random girl (jeanne) off the street and convinced her she was sent from god to defeat hao, and also made a bunch of angel ghost car gun thingies (I don't even know). there are a bunch of these x law guys and they run around in their burial clothes shooting angels out of guns and worshipping an 11 year old in a functional, stabbing included iron maiden. lyserg splits up from the protagonist party shortly after meeting them join the x laws and visibly spirals into their harsh and cultish vision of justice and almost kills a man (jeanne ends up killing the guy btw it's fucked)
they're both really fascinating characters and I have at least 14 other related tangents but
tune in when the polls are out for those I guess
featuring Even More Child abuse and Beheadings
hello thats SOOOO messed up. perfect. pov there are two gods in your world and one of them is an 11 year old girl in a cult??? and this other guy also gets wrapped up in cult stuff. the other god is a catboy, who despite being the biggest god here, does not cause all that much godly trauma (lame)

I know you’ve answered my question on Lissa and Sarai’s friendship, but what about her relationship with Harrow would it be the opposite from how he was with Viren?
I mean, I think as far as Lissa is concerned, Harrow is the Crown Prince or the King, and not really more than that.
I have read virrow-slanted takes where Lissa is (rightfully) jealous of Harrow, because, y'know, Viren is fucking obsessed with him, and I don't think those takes are bad. I do think that Viren prioritizing Harrow over everyone else (forgetting/ignoring Soren's birthday because it falls in the immediate run-up to Harrow's, etc.) is a dynamic that developed mostly after Lissa leaves and Sarai is killed, because it's driven by guilt and insecurity—he's afraid on some level that Harrow will leave him, like Lissa did, over uncontrollable consequences of a choice he feels was necessary. Personally, I write Lissa as not jealous of Harrow in that way, even if he and Viren had a prior romantic/sexual relationship, because she looks at Harrow and is like "this dude gets absolutely consumed by guilt at the slightest deviation from his own perceived moral commitments, if he was fucking my husband behind my back he'd literally never be able to look me in the eye again."
(FWIW, while Lissa would agree that Harrow is incredibly good-looking, he's way too wholesome to snag her interest.)
In NCNE, they never really get close because Lissa just doesn't find him relatable. Both Viren and Sarai had normal backgrounds and life experiences, but Harrow was born a prince and to her is just... less well-rounded, as a person? (Recall btw that Del Bar does not have a hereditary monarchy, so. "This man was sheltered all his life since childhood and exclusively groomed to take his father's place on the throne" is insane.) She actually respects him a lot in how broad and compassionate his view is, despite how he was raised, and she doesn't think he'll be a bad king or anything, but as individuals they have literally nothing in common besides Viren and trauma resulting from Viren's death. (And anything they found in common would be fighting that shadow. It's just super awkward.)
#also i just don't want to write harrow in detail at this point in the timeline lmao#SO much would be dependent on his relationship with his father and we just... know literally nothing about that#like i'm already going to have to dance around 'how the fuck did king atticus die' and that's bad enough#neither crows nor eagles au#lissa#harrow

this ask is prompting you to ramble to your heart's content about toh
omg tysm anon this means so much i definitely didn't start crying when i read this nope
btw obligatory warning for season 2 spoilers!!
SO. the owl house.
first off, i'm gonna talk about Luz + the main gang bc i absolutely love them. so you have Luz, who's insane but like. in a lovable way. like if i knew her irl i would probably be terrified of her but she's also really nice and stuff!! just like. no self preservation instinct. anyway she's unhinged but very fun !
then Eda, aka the Owl Lady, aka wine aunt extraordinaire. she's very much like Luz except i would actually trust her with my life and she's a sweetheart and i want her to adopt me so fucking bad. also she's cursed and that's kinda fun. sometimes. actually it isn't but she sure looks cool when she's in her owl/monster/beast/evil form-
Hooty (i. spelled that as hotty at first and am extremely ashamed) and King are the first siblings that Luz obtains. Hooty (oh my FUCKING god why do i keep calling him hotty) is obnoxious and can take off his own skin, which is horrific, and King is a very good boy. certified munchkin. i wanna pet him.
then there's everyone at school who i love So Much, Gus is my child and Willow is so fucking badass and Amity is girlfriend™ (just not at first). honorable mention for Principal Bump because he will forever be the best magical school principal and i wanna give him a hug
i really kinda thought the show was boring for the majority of the first season, but holy fuck did it deliver around ep16-ish. like everything starts to come together, we get a main villain (Belos), a main quest (getting the portal back), and more stuff!! it's just really awesome, it became one of my favorite series in just two episodes.
i really love how Eda's sister (her name has currently been forgotten lol) became friends with Hooty, they got such a nice friendship after everyone kinda hated Hooty and it made me really happy.
THEN!!!! ENTER HUNTER (aka my favorite fucking character of all time currently). just. omg. Zuko but Even More Traumatized (probably. maybe). it's so hard to tell what he's thinking, especially when he's first introduced. he's really cheerful and....well, not friendly, but he's very confident and boisterous, and clearly believes that he's a good person/on the right side. on the other hand, even in his first few episodes it's really obvious he's uh. not that mentally healthy. (like in the scenes where he starts infodumping about something he's read and then just kinda. cuts himself off. that was so relatable it made me sad every time hgfdfghjhgf)
and then the big reveal about him in s2e16, oh my god. i called a lot of the major plot twists but the fact that he's literally a fucking clone of Belos's probably-brother??? imagine how mentally fucked up finding that out would make you. he held himself together Surprisingly Well considering his entire life was shattered in like. less than an hour and he realized he was going to fucking die if he ever saw his uncle again. like. just imagine. he's already been abused so much (personal hc of mine that Belos gave him those scars) and he's already terrified of Belos, but he doesn't really think Belos is going to kill him. maybe hurt him, maybe demote him or something else bad but he doesn't think he's going to die and then he finds out that literally all oF HIS PREDECESSORS WERE MURDERED BY BELOS???? AND THAT HE WAS JUST SOMETHING THAT COULD BE THROWN AWAY IF HE MESSED UP OR DID ANYTHING BAD??????? CMON BRO THAT'S A-TIER WRITING
and his dynamic with the rest of the characters is so great, i love how he and Luz always bicker with each other but then work together, and Amity being able to relate to him and trying to make him feel better at the lake/titan blood mine and him and Willow and Gus are just like siblings they're so adorable. Gus helping him with his panic attack is one of my favorite scenes in any show i've ever watched and i am not kidding about that. they're just so ugh. showing him that he can be loved and it's not his fault and hhhaahahahhaaaaaaaaaaaa *loud screeching*
the whole day of unity thing was absolutely incredible, i love how Darius and animal coven dude and Raine were actually trying to stop the day of unity before the mcs even really knew how big of a deal it was, and i love that you can't tell that Darius and animal dude were on the good side until wayyyyy after Raine's assumedly captured by them. it's really good writing. (also Darius is Hunter's Dad™. i do and will not take criticism on this.)
btw don't even get me started on Raine istfg- they make me so incredibly happy. just. the fact that they're so badass and wonderful and Definitely not in love with Eda and their magic is so cool and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. seeing a canon nb character is something that gives me a lot of courage, just the way that everyone respects their pronouns and is totally chill about it makes me so incredibly happy (especially in the last few days. hah.) i need to see more of Raine, especially after that finale bc oh god what if they're dead or something?????? i'm so scared
aLSO ALSO!!!! the Collector is baby. i would adopt him (them?) in 2.0 seconds if i could. he deserves to be happy and have friends and not be betrayed by everyone who he helps. i honestly feel super bad for him, he's just a lil god kid who wants to play w ppl :((( why is everyone afraid of himmm
the season two finale killed me btw. i'm dead. deceased. writing this from my coffin. like wtf are they gonna do now that Raine (and everyone else) is dead/dying and Eda doesn't have an arm and the kids are both stuck in the human world and Extremely traumatized (looking at you Hunter) and King's stuck with the Collector (who he betrayed and who is probably not gonna be very happy about that)???? i'm going insane. legitimately when i finished i just kinda closed my computer and said "oh my god" out loud. i cannot handle this i'm so scared omg
that being said i really want to see the gang's reaction to the human world. i wanna see Gus obsessing over paperclips again :( i feel like there's so much potential for the gang to all be adopted by Luz's mom and i am HERE for it. Hunter needs a mom asap
ok. wow this got long-
i think i'm done for now sooo. yeah. thank you so much for letting me do this anon hfdfghjhgfdsdfg i literally love you (/p)
#anon <3#endless asks#toh#you asked me to ramble and i. Certainly delivered#jesus christ this is long

And btw if you want to see reasoning for PKMN choices in the last post, here they are under the cut because I love rambling about stuff like this.
Pomni -> Popplio: Circus-themed Pokemon that unlike most of the others, is undoubtedly cutesy (in relation to people's opinions on clowns specifically). Also a lot of pinnipeds have sopping wet eyes which I think would fit her.
Jax -> Lopunny: Rabbit, and the one I felt would most fit him since there are a few other rabbit Pokemon. Part of me thinks it's funny that I decided on a friendship evo considering Um. Gestures To All Of Him. but I think that adds to it. And also Buneary is one of the only Pokemon (besides legendaries that is) to just have 0 friendship when you catch it normally. This cute bunny rabbit fucking HATES you..
Ragatha -> Kirlia: This one actually took me a bit, because I originally planned on depicting her as a Shuppet since they are both dolls. A Ghost type Pokemon didn't feel like it suited her, though, so I went looking for Pokemon that were doll-esque but not creepy. I settled on Kirlia, which as an added bonus is the Emotion Pokemon, and I feel that fits considering she seems to be the main one of the group who tries to keep people's spirits up.
Gangle -> Yamask: Easy choice, considering Yamask constantly totes around a mask of its own. Since it's not really ribbon-y, I added some ribbons to the arms to kind of try and evoke her image.
Kinger -> Kingambit: Also an easy choice, since the Pokemon is based on the king chess piece as well. The blades on the waist of Kingambit sort of just jut out from the cape (which I am very thankful to Kinger for having because MAN Kingambit is a bitch to draw). I was sort of hoping the blades on the head and the blade-stache would look enough like the cross on the top of the king piece, particularly when shortened.
Zooble -> Porygon-Z: Originally, they were going to be a Porygon because its polygonal shape looked more like Zooble's head. I decided against it because 1) didn't particularly feel like drawing polygons and 2) I felt Porygon-Z's more "random" and erratic behavior could translate to Zooble's mishmash body better than Porygon. I had to cut some parts of the pieces short for simplicity but I think they turned out nice :)
Caine -> Gengar: Shout out to this guy for being a thorn in my side with regards to what species to choose!!! There aren't any Pokemon that are just teeth, so I went with Gengar since it has a huge smile on its face. The coloration was chosen from a gradient between Gengar's body color and the color of Caine's suit, because I tried the latter and it looked off.
Bubble -> Castform (Rainy Form): I briefly considered going with Dewpider or its evolution since their main feature are the bubbles on their heads, but I didn't think a spider fit Bubble very well. Castform can float like Bubble, hence the choice.
Kaufmo -> Mr. Rime: Both clowns. That's really all there is to that one.
#text#if this shows up in tags despite me not tagging any of these then i am sorry.#hopefully the readmore will work and not have a huge post in the middle of Actual things

Needed to entertain myself so decided to summarise the Svt Eurovision commentator for semi 1. Sorry in advance for the long post!
"My name is Edward af Sillén and I'm belonging to the dying species Eurovision experts.
It'll be a candy with flavours we couldn't dreamt about. Punk rock bands, 60 year old men in high heels, white Y-fronts, a fruity dictator and Putin's missiles as phallus symbols. And all of this are just in Croatia's entry!
And what a week for Great Britain! A few days ago they crowned a king and isn't it we hope to crown a queen before week's end? That queen is named Loreen Talhaoui
I can tell that the first song of the evening is the 1 541th to ever have competed in Eurovision. Good info to have if you have a SAT in front of you.
Like a spinning pass from Mordor. Alessandra, strong on the stage. From Norway to Malta, a country that in Eurovision often sings about angels, or peace, or about angels who want peace. But this year they're singing about us and about how socially awkward we've become after the life in quarantine and that we rather stay at home than go out to clubs. On the other hand, that's how I've felt since 2011.
Lovely The Busker! Guys who love to dance but evidentially CAN'T dance. Nice and relatable for most of us guys.
He calls himself Black because he as a teenager declared Serbia's music industry as dead, and wore black for 40 days in personal mourning. But besides that he seems to be a very positive guy, real fun at parties. Jokes aside, he does seem to be a very great guy.
I'm so happy I didn't have to stand behind and do hip hop-moves.
Marisa Mema performs under the name of Mimicat. Unclear why. Now you're many wondering if Mimicat indeed has a cat and I can tell you that yes, she has. The cat's name is Brownie. Mimicat's entry is about when the heart beats so hard that the body aches and you get dry in your mouth and dizzy. That's how it feels when you're in love. Could also be heart failure.
Ireland is Eurovision's own Bengt Dahlqvist. Usually they have another lead singer but he wasn't considered good looking enough for Eurovision. So instead one of the band's guys had to step up. And he does that in a gold coloured bodysuit just to better safe than sorry. Lock your daughters in! Here's Wild Youth from Ireland.
Grab onto something now... Croatia sends a bunch of 60 year olds so hard that Ireland's wild youth look like Mini-cottage cheese. It might look like it's the Grotesco-gang who've masqueraded and are pulling our legs but the fact is that this is a rather fantastic group with a long history of political activism through music. A bit like Croatia's equivalent to Nationalteatern. If they win on Saturday they've promised to sing the winner's reprisal completely nude. I'm not trying to influence your votes, I'm just thinking this is info you deserve to have before voting.
Yes! Y-fronts and pumps and a subtle melody. Croatia starts off hard. That gang's debut album was btw named Two Dogs Fucking and is as you understand a perfect record to put on in the background when you and wifey have an romantic evening with the food simmering on the stove.
Musical protests against the war can look in different ways, which becomes extra palpable now when Switzerland enters the stage after Croatia. He had his breakthrough at 18 years old when he won the Swiss The Voice. He's also competed in the German show I can see your voice, which should be impossible.
She's a fabulous singer, a brilliant lyrics writer, a dynamic dancer and a magical actress. All this according to her own website. Tonight's entry she has contributed with writing herself - Unicorn. And it was only a matter of time before a Eurovision song would be called that.
And him you've seen before. 2012 he competed in Baku and was defeated by Loreen. He can't only have been happy when he decided to return and got to hear Loreen would do the same. We're treated to sort of medieval performance extra-everything with women with horns, men who beat on drums and a man with a flute dressed as someone from Asterix. Did I say you're watching Eurovision?
Their music is Beatles inspired in bits. Very fitting now when we're in Liverpool.
Twins we've seen before in Eurovision. 1980 for example it was Sophie and Magaly for Luxembourg. 2014 it was Tolmachevy Sisters for Russia. 1994 it was Roger Pontare and Marie Bergman for Sweden. Well, perhaps Roger and Marie weren't biological twins but when they sang it felt like they came from the same egg.
During the song you'll hear the word corona several times. But that means crown and not corona. So if you've caught corona in Czechia congratulations are in order.
Dion was supposed to perform the song solo, but they felt it was too much like Arcade so they re-made the song into a duet. And that's why Mia walks beside him on the podium. And how fittingly perfect isn't that since Liverpool know better than anybody else that you never walk alone.
Finland. Yup, the neighborliness is but a memory. What Finland send is really effective. You're about to experience Finnish industry-techno, hardcore rap blended with cha cha in a song that ends in eurodisco and a synchronised conga line. All this performed by the irresistible Käärijä who 29 years old had a break through in the Finnish national selection and crushed all opposition. Before this he was as good as unknown in the home country. A bleeding colon inflammation that nearly took his life was an eye-opener, and he decided to go for the music seriously. So it's an inflamed large intestine which have given Finland their biggest shot at winning in a very long time.
In many ways Loreen's complete opposite, but a real challenger on Saturday."
Oh my god I love this thanks so much for this gem

Good morning! (To me)
Atinys out for blood, it was funny at first and the antis went wild so they had to be clowned, but some fans are doing TOO much, calm down. Let them deal with the copying. But I do hope Vata says something, ideally something that won't be dumb and disrespectful
That previous fan call was so frustrating to watch, but the Atiny reassured him and Hwa also said he liked longer hair (then why did he cut it off not so long after siydishdkshsjduhdj but he went pink so it's fine). Look I care about hair, it's one of my personality traits and I may talk shit sometimes, but I would never say it anywhere near the members...
UNI AU PLEASE YESSSSS - says me who still gets uni related nightmares despite being out of school for a while. Not a furry at least not in THAT way alrite!!! I'm just an animal lover and pretty boys enthusiast, so what if we combine those two 🤗
💖
You got me at Park Seonghwa in red, because I love red and I love Seonghwa 💋 16:58 let's never forget and I thought we would end it with just one Shinee song, but my Shawol baby did not disappoint
Mf I'm gonna haunt him in that house I can tell we're not gonna let each other "live" square up ghost Tae
Nothing in Twilight screamed ROMANCE to me, like?! Don't get me started on that dumbfuck Jacob especially in later parts, and of course the ugly baby 😭 most shows suffer from too many seasons syndrome, it's so sad. I mean yeah understandable, they wanna milk it, there's a demand, but sighhh. Omfg that TB mention, it's creepy, but happens TOO OFTEN, the mind reading or perhaps spying is out of control ☠
The evils of SM lmao, imagine if Taemin, Key, Kai, Seulgi, Taeyeon (I would add Changmin, have you heard his song... Devil?) performing together 😳😳😳😳
Wdym Hwa doesn't like Y/N... you're right, he LOVES her <3 why are there so many guys please, all simps? But the one who is supposed to simp hates her??? And does Y/N like Hwa? Well I love ETL, so 😘 Y/N as Taemin's lore - sexy of her
Sunmi's recent concept, the ginger mermaid hair I DIED. Right, miss Chungha, I'm not that into her recent stuff unfortunately, but she's gooooood anyways.
Poor Y/N I just know I'm gonna become her biggest apologist and if bitch boy royal guy Hwa doesn't want her I'll take her as my witch wife. I'm looking forward to the fic, because it seems like there's a lot to unpack.
I know Villain Dies is so nice, actually the whole album is really good, Tomboy's rap was questionable, but the whole release is solid. One of my faves in 22 actually. Songs with villain in the title always slap: Idle, Pixy, Key, SNSD...
FLAME OF LOVE SAYONARA HITORI?!?!?! MY LOVES 😭😭😭😭
I just saw that art you linked *mind reading* it's soooo good and made me think of Duke or King
Btw Sunmi and Taemin, A LONGER COLLAB WHEN. I keep coming back to this. I like watching award shows with friends, because we just hang out and it's less boring that way, but on my own it's a struggle lmao
Mingi era sure it is and it has been since DV. I was like "gotta collect a lot of Mingi since he was absent" and the fact he looked especially good was a bonus and he's been looking saaaaauuuuur goooood ever since
That San x Jueyon article is so dumb sjsgiagsidgejsjs it's just their hairstyles I-
No because I showed Hwa one of my cats once 😭😭😭😭 I'm obsessed with the sound he makes in the first video, it's so fucking cute his lil "HAHA"
And what about my bodyguard Seonghwa? Do I get two?
HOOOOLYY SHTITIS SOOHYUK WHAT IS THIS AND WIDUKSHEUWAHABHA Eunwoo is there too? Jesus how did I miss this - DV 💖
hi hello!!!
Good morning! (To me)

Atinys out for blood, it was funny at first and the antis went wild so they had to be clowned, but some fans are doing TOO much, calm down. Let them deal with the copying. But I do hope Vata says something, ideally something that won't be dumb and disrespectful
atiny and now a whole idol 😭😭 nO EXACTLYYYY some are doing too much 😭😭 i understand the emotion behind it & the way it reached the choreographers too,,, but i saw SOME going above and bEYOND,, killed the entire vibe,,, vata didn’t say anything but a team member of his did?? wasn’t vata all quick to call out someone for plagiarism WHERE THAT GO NOW VATA AND HWA
That previous fan call was so frustrating to watch, but the Atiny reassured him and Hwa also said he liked longer hair (then why did he cut it off not so long after siydishdkshsjduhdj but he went pink so it's fine). Look I care about hair, it's one of my personality traits and I may talk shit sometimes, but I would never say it anywhere near the members...
some literally do not deserve those,, if u don’t like something just keep it to urself??? also some atinys say “ateez after they keep getting the same 10 people each fancall” WHICH IDK IF THEY UNDERSTAND THAT SOME PEOPLE (not one of the 10’s) POST ABOUT THEIR FANCALLS ON LINE 😭😭😭 SOME THINGS ARE PRIVATE,,, no ur so right, talking shit but keeping it to urself and jot saying it in front of idols is basic manners 😭😭😭
UNI AU PLEASE YESSSSS - says me who still gets uni related nightmares despite being out of school for a while. Not a furry at least not in THAT way alrite!!! I'm just an animal lover and pretty boys enthusiast, so what if we combine those two 🤗
