Harbingers (+ Scaramouche and Signora) finding out that your dating the traveler :3

(Mentions of drinking, Harbingers speak other languages, maybe a bit OOC? This us my first time writing something like this)

Tartaglia

Hes happy that your happy! But even though he might know the traveler (definitely more nice to them than the others) his personality would change like a light switch, he would ask the traveler questions like a over protective dad questions as such “do you drink? Put [NAME] in dangerous situations? Are you reckless? (Tartaglia is the most reckless person you know)” etc etc but overall he wants you to he happy but also safe :D

Arlecchino

Alrlecchino is kinda like Tartaglia but slightly worse, as a father Arlecchino is more protective trying to keep you away from getting into a relationship not wanting you to go down the wrong path. She would give the traveler death stares whispering cuss words in french silently knowing you would be angry if she cussed put your significant other (Traveler) but like Tartaglia she wants you to be happy and safe

Scaramouche and Signora

These mfs would try to CONVINCE you to NOT date the traveler “But he is really nice!—“ “The traveler looks filthy” “His clothes are stingy”

He didn’t hold back by criticizing the Traveler about how he looks, acts, ESPECIALLY having Paimon around, how he didn’t take you on a date yet etc, using those as reasons for you to NOT date him or even better not to hang out with him in any way shape or form! They want you to he happy but especially not with him

Dottore and Pantalone

For them Im kinda stumped but I feel like they would take action if the traveler hurt you in any kind of way but they would be like Scaramouche and Signora commenting on how the traveler is presenting “ Couldn’t he wear something nicer..?” “[NAME] at least find someone with a sense of style..and maybe mora to..” but overall they don’t really say that much besides maybe ask the same Questions that Tartaglia asked but not to big

Coloumbina

She would try to manipulate you to not date the traveler saying it in a calm soft tone to really get to you “Sweetheart..Maybe you should choose them..Would they really choose you to..?” And maybe after the meet up she would go into your room talking about how she thinks its not the best choice or its not the best idea for you to date the traveler (Maybe trying to convince you to close your eyes like her so you wont fall in love with the traveler again.)

“Are we finally done meeting all of them?”

“Nope! 4 More to go!”

“WHAT-“

(Thats all!! If you have any tips or things I should add please lmk^^ Tags: @jadestone2

i hate how normalized military is in the us im gonna rip my hair out

#i just. was talking w friends today #one of them was talking abt how he was almost convinced by the recruitment lady to join the navy and i was like. dude #and i was talking about how messed up it is that they send in people like that and catch kids like him #and my friends were like. you cant really blame her for doing her job. its her JOB like yes. it is her job. its fucking Bad #my best friend got all angry cuz his dad was in the navy. babe idc if he didnt actually fight he shouldnt have done it ♡ #''people get drafted'' you have to dodge the draft. #''thats illegal'' yes. this is a requirement for if you are drafted. you Have to just not. #no one said action would be comfortable nor convenient. in fact it is going to be almost none of either #you are gonna have to face that the military murders human beings and your dad is not any better #and people who its ''just their job'' to do it chose that job. and they know #''you cant get mad at the worker woman; you have to get mad at the institution'' no im mad at the individual woman too #just because its your job to manipulate kids and kill Arab people doesnt mean its okay #''not everyone in the military is actively fighting'' no! they arent. but they are helping those that are. #they are not complicit but actively helping. you have to do anything and everything you can to just Not Fucking do that #ANYONE in the military has failed being a decent human 101. being in any part of the military means you are okay with centuries of genocide #and encourage even more. its not 'just your job' you are OK and more for relentless murder and i wish you harm #anyways. sometimes repeating & internalizing the things ur parents say means watch our for road traps and the beatles are good. #sometimes it is US propaganda and just because it is in your own house and coming from a loved one doesnt mean you cant not fall for it #edit not to mention him saying this the day after aaron bushnell died. dude #unethical jobs exist. it is everyones job to bring them down #''its just her job'' was Bushnells sacrifice not fucking enough for you??? and the millions of dead Palestinians????? christ

"Hey dad can you convince [*insert someone with power here*] to let me join [*insert something i cant join*] please??? They said its impossible and also probably illegal"

My dad, a therapist who got me into a bunch of stuff that I wasn't allowed to join or go to purely by "just having a quick chat with the guy in charge": ...

Me: "well?"

My dad: "dont worry im already writing the text in my head."

Me: "just no gaslighting, manipulation, mansplaining or bringing up their childhood this time yeah?"

dad: "its not gaslighting, manipulation and mansplaining, its methods of therapy and it works every single time so sit down and let me think"

Me: "k thanks love you"

#Actual conversation I just had #This is legit how it works around here #Therapist dad goes brrrrrr #I'm serious once he handed me a letter and said “got you into that thing you wanted to go to” and I was like #“OMG HOW????” #And he just chuckled and said “his dad had anger issues” #And I just looked at him and said “iM SORRY WHAT??” #and he just went “dont worry about it” #Anyway my point is dont trust therapists they have a whole other life too #Both of my parents are therapists and some people say “oh thats so great!!” NO IT FUCKED ME UP #except for that little detail where I can do what I want cos my dad can convince anyone to do anything lols #But other than that #Living with 2 therapists fucked me up BIG TIME #WOULD NOT RECOMMEND

why doesn't chara & asriel live with toriel at all?

everyone's gone on without you

#ok now to actually explain it and not just post no context imgs #it was a while from the time monsterkind was freed to when asriel and chara came back/came to the surface #and in that time life had continued going on without them. as it had the same way when they died #im thinking it was anywhere around a year before frisk in their infrequent trips to the underground #was able to convince flowey to take a piece of their soul so he could hold his goat form together somewhat #and bring him back to the surface #but for chara it took longer. two years maybe? from monster independence day to come back #because frisk had to first find out where chara's real original soul was being kept and then find it and stuff #i can talk about this another time its such a huge can of worms my god #BUT BASICALLY it was a few years and by the time both kids were integrating back into society #the lives of those they loved had changed so drastically #chara didnt know their parents split up. they didnt know asgore killed human children or that their mother went into isolation #not until the game events anyways #and when they cam to the surface and saw all of that stuff -in person- as well as how well/poorly one parent was doing over another #theyyyy didnt take it well. like their mother had a new partner (doesnt matter who take your pick) and was raising frisk #and their dad was super mega turbo divorced and depressed and had nothing but his garden #in their mind toriel didnt need them anymore. she had a new partner and a new human kid and chara had served their purpose #so they elected to stay with asgore so he would have Someone anyone in his life and asriel followed #iiittts a huge mess basically. huge emotional landmine mess of insane proportions #undertale #my art #ask

okay, it’s father’s day in the states so here’s a Big Post about kurt and his father. very much bullet points because it is 2am and i have a Lot of thoughts but they’re not very coherent. tws for all kinds of abuse, a little bit of mentions of homophobia and eating disorders but not super in depth.

kurt exclusively calls his father by formal terms. to his face it is always ALWAYS “sir” it is never ever “dad”. when talking to other people it’s “my father” it’s never ever “my dad”. the relationship does not have the familial bond that it should, there isn’t the closeness that is needed to call him dad. kurt tries to get close to him, but it’s never enough. “dad” was ignored from a young age, always with claims that kurt needed to be more “respectful” of his elders. so his parents are sir and ma’am to their faces, though his mother gets the benefit of being called “mom” to other people. this is entirely for the benefit of the relationship appearing better than it is, “mom” is encouraged because that relationship is more volatile than the one with his father and thus they need to put some padding on the way he speaks about her to ensure nothing bad comes out.

the name conrad is a. difficult point for kurt. it’s his legal name, it’s what he’s called in gymnastics competitions, it’s the name his parents use. in formal situations it’s the only name allowed, he’ll be in trouble for calling himself kurt at the wrong kind of event for that. his parents haven’t called him that in years, if ever. they may have indulged it as a kid once or twice, but especially once he became a teenager it was Heavily Discouraged because it was just seen as a form of teenage rebellion that could not stand. it was him stepping away from the very detailed exact path in life that his parents had carved for him and they would not allow that. he Hates being called conrad and has ended up in physical fights with people over it, which of course only gets him in more trouble because a kid like him shouldn’t be publicly getting into fights and be covered in bruises, though it’s also used as a way to cover the abuse inflicted on him. it’s a useful tool for his parents and yet he’s chastised for it. they have a very contradictory view on him getting into fights.

kurt’s father does encourage his fighting, though. he always tells kurt he needs to toughen up, that he’s not manly enough, that he has to prove dominance somehow — especially if/when shadysiders are involved. a large part of kurt’s relationship with his father is this constant battle of living up to the name he was given. he shares his father’s name, meaning that everything he does is compared to his father tenfold. his father was an olympian, so he has to be one too. his father won a certain amount of competitions, if kurt can’t do that then he’s failed the name and he’s a disappointment and he’s punished “appropriately”.

that said, there’s also the very intense aspect of jealousy that conrad senior feels towards kurt. mr horton was wiped out after an injury, leaving him unable to do gymnastics anymore and forced to live vicariously through his son. he is constantly pushing kurt to live up to his legacy, but the second that kurt goes even slightly beyond what his father did there’s hell to pay. if kurt is better than his father he has to pay for it, even though he knows that that’s what he is expected to do. he does as he is told and he is punished for it. this is the curse that kurt is fated to for his entire life.

kurt’s father control’s kurts diet far more than his mother does. they both enforce it, but kurt’s father is the one in charge. not that the diet ever changes, it’s always the same bland rice and chicken and vegetable type of shit. bland as hell and barely enough to keep kurt going. protein powders and drinks throughout the day. there’s all kinds of hell to pay if kurt’s father finds out he had a burger or some kind of treat.

conrad senior is capable of being loud. he doesn’t yell as much as kurt’s mom does, but when he does it rattles the house. it can be heard down the street. when conrad senior is mad the entire world knows. it hits kurt far harder than his mother yelling does, though both absolutely ruin him. similarly, conrad isn’t as violent towards kurt as his mother is, but when he is it’s far more painful. they have very different kinds of violence, both overlapping in the simplest of forms but having their own distinct styles. melissa will often try to conceal what is done, will do things that won’t leave a mark or where the mark isn’t easily seen/is easily hidden, whereas once conrad has turned to violence it no longer matters whether or not people find out. it’s not his problem to deal with, and the burden of a cover story is dropped onto kurt — a child who is hurt and terrified and in no way capable of coming up with a good lie. where i tend to default to kurt’s mom being the perpetrator of violence, his father is just as capable and a thousand times more scary. he’s got the benefit of size, much taller than kurt and built like a brick wall. he’s like those pixar dads that just have huge upper bodies. he’s Scary. when conrad senior is the one committing violence, especially when there is rage behind it, these are the times that kurt ends up barely making it out, desperately needing medical attention that he won’t get unless he really has to. kurt’s mom taught kurt how to patch himself up, but kurt’s dad is the one who makes sure kurt never forgets.

conrad is. he doesn’t care as much about if people see what he does. where kurt’s mom is subtle where possible, conrad will punch kurt in front of an audience without much care. he’s powerful, both physically and socially, and he knows that it’s highly highly unlikely anyone willl stand up to him. plus, he has a strong relationship with the cops/lawyers and the goode’s (or he thinks he does, nick absolutely despises him and wants him dead but he doesnt know or care about that) and he thinks hes pretty much invincible. in the threads where kurt actually takes action against his family, conrad is left confused and astounded at every turn when legal action is actually taken against him.

kurt’s father is very. he has a very toxic masculinity approach to the world and its. he takes it out on kurt a Lot. kurts mother imparts the need to look perfect and appear perfect at all times, but his father is constantly belittling him and abusing him for being “too feminine” or putting too much work into his appearance and things like that. his father encompasses a lot of the absolute worst parts of frat hazing horror stories. hes constantly trying to harm and humiliate his son, especially when kurt starts to gain a success that’s more impressive and impactful than his own had been.

while kurt’s mother is undoubtedly terrible when kurt dates boys, it’s his father that is by far the worst about it. especially in his canon timeline where it’s the 70s, but in modern day as well. he’s just not at all accepting of kurt and firmly holds the belief that kurt being with a boy would be bad for his image. he would be absolutely horrified to find out the ins and outs of kurts sex life (absolute bottom, biggest sub you’ve ever seen) and i have no doubts he’d be just as awful if he found out kurt’s girlfriends pegged him because he’s just. he’s homophobic as shit he’s awful. very much one of those men that’s all “i cant be affectionate towards my son because that’s a boy and thats gay”

#headcanons. #dyn: conrad horton senior #every point i wrote made me go ‘maybe it should’ve been his dad who did the bad stuff’ #but theres a very distinct. his mothers abuse is much more often and much more impulsive in a lot of ways #and that makes it make sense that she is the perpetrator of the bigger ones. but theres also #theres a Lot of awful things that his father does to him #long post cw #i am convinced theres more rattling in my brain but i have been writing this for 40 minutes so #i was gonna read more this but i am forcing my thoughts onto the dash #im not proof reading this btw #if something at the end contradicts something said earlier then whatever was written last is canon <3

NO!!!! i am the not picture taker. i have to remind myself to take occasional selfies with my boyfriend so we can prove to the korean government we've been dating sufficiently long to get married.

#like if someone wants a picture with me i will let them #and in japan i had a bit of fun taking pictures #but i actually think many experiences are better when everyone is not waving their phones around #like walking through the wish lantern tunnel at the jinju lantern festival. WISHHH i could have simply strolled down the tunnel #instead we had to stop every two steps because literally every other person in there was taking photos and videos #another thing—it's fine for people to make these and go to these but i dont like art installations that are MADE for pictures #MADE to be posted on your instagram story #i want to feel utterly rocked to my core IN PERSON by art and culture and experiences and i dont care how it photographs #in vietnam i took pictures (almost) every day just to force myself to leave the airbnb #and i took videos in halong bay for my dad so i can convince him to go back w me sometime #but like call me a boomer. i do not care about pictures and they wont help me remember #i just want to feel things deeply while im there. sorry to sound all 'just live in the moment' but #t

#i misspelled powerpoint but it's funnier this way #viitalks #OUGH.gif #the Entirety of said work bonus is probably going towards like #going to the office daily instead of only on scheduled days #getting my rig to the pc doctor's + the doctor's fee + any necessary parts- #POSSIBLY THE GODDAMN CPU.

I’m out of town for a couple of days for my brother’s chess tournament and the internet in this hotel sucks butts and I only brought one book with me 😓

#sucks butts IN A BAD WAY #this is the same hotel that held the last couple of big chess tournaments my brother entered #so I’ve been here a few times but this is the first time I’m actually renting a room instead of driving back and forth each day #so positive: got a room and don’t have to drive a bunch. negative: no continental breakfast 😒 #they have a little tiny starbucks but no free breakfast which is bullshit! #also all of my books are stilled packed up from moving bc I’m lazy so I couldn’t grabbed any one I really wanted to read #but I did get a free copy of Stephen King’s ‘On Writing’ the other day so I brought that #and yeah I am kinda pumped to peruse that. Mr King is a pretty cool dude and I def want his writing tips #but also… I just kinda would rather read something about a fucked up wizard or something ya know? #anyway I always feel weird or annoying saying this but if you want to send me any asks or anything to help pass my time then by all means #or not. it’s cool. really. I hate bugging people and I hate coming off as desperate & needy outside of the bedroom #im going to be mushy and say im kind of excited to spend the night sleepover style with my little bro here #he’s getting older and it’s getting harder to convince him to hang out with me #love this little dude so gosh darn much #oh man what if we get a pizza and watch a movie together? would that be cool? is that something teenagers like to do with their older bros? #i’m so lame #being like 18 years older than your younger brother means you get to fulfill your cool uncle/dad vibes without actually having kids #ok I have to stop myself from filling this with tags about wishing I was a dad or being whatever #what was I saying before?… did I even have a point? #oh yeah… bad internet… only one book… I’m hungry… yeah… #this isn’t important #you can ignore this #text
