#but nightmare is more formal xD

[phoenixcatch7]

Open up

Based on this wonderful art of @puppetmaster13u for the dollhouse au!

It had been a long day, and was destined to be even longer.

The original plan had been bad enough; the league had a media conference planned for three o'clock, one that involved foreign presence and thus required pristine presentation.

Then, as all perfectly good plans that could have been left alone by the universe did, it was derailed by a villain attack or several. He said several because it seemed almost a dozen separate villains had individually had the bright idea of sabotaging the well publicised event. Though they'd failed, the accidental collaboration had done what each alone could not, and now the league was dragging themselves to base to hurriedly patch up the thankfully minor wounds and try and rush to meet the deadline.

Each league member on the list had a formal version of their usual super suit - flash's main change had been a bowtie before it met almost unanimous disapproval, and on the other end of the effort spectrum was Bruce. Not of his own will - he quite envied Flash's staunch faith in the single black bowtie - but he not only had been raised for the fast and critical world of the upper class, but was currently in a metal plated marionette held together by glue and screws and wires, which meant changing attire was more of a debacle than it would ordinarily be.

He flipped open the toolkit with the best approximation of a sigh the doll body could manage. The chest inflated and deflated, which was in fact a rather worrying sign because it wasn't supposed to be able to do that. He grabbed a screwdriver and a pit of tar glue and approached the mirror. He'd just have to go into the globally broadcast meeting stinking of sulphur... Perhaps he could borrow perfume from one of the girls, cologne combined dreadfully.

The chest cavity opened with little tugging, and he held one side in place as he attacked the bent hinges. An odd feeling, for sure. He took a hammer to the dent, imagining it was the penguin's face and praying Clark didn't decide now was the time to approach him on his self soothing metalworking hobby. He'd been entrusted with the override code for the door and Bruce was now quietly regretting that.

The chest cavity doors creaked back into place, which enabled him to finally pull out the costume change for the evening and dump it on the side.

Now for the leg, having been crushed under a tank penguin had smuggled into Gotham. It now bent the wrong way, and hiding it under his cloak had been a pain, but at least it hadn't come off -

There it went. Batman watched, almost despondent, as it toppled free of his body and crashed to the ground. The unhappy static that raced up his spine at the sight was expected - he'd be paying for the lack of care for the Patriarch Doll in nightmares tonight.

Joy.

He tipped into the nearby stool and kicked the lost limb closer with his remaining foot, squinting. Just a cracked screw and torn spring at the knee, thank goodness. He'd have it fully attached again within the hour.

But he was pretty sure he couldn't bend that far over without his jaw falling off, so face it was.

Hood off, wires unlaced under the chin, hidden screws loosened. The gas mask came off. The velcro on top of his head took good old fashioned yanking, but eventually peeled off with reluctant crackling, revealing the unpainted grey metal beneath.

As expected, his jaw was almost entirely loose, unable to close now without the structure of the mask. The nutcracker mouth in the lower jaw fell to tap against his throat, leaving either side of the actual lower jaw to hang in the air. Experimentally, he opened and closed his mouth, and watched all three parts swing and clink like a robot body horror wind-chime.

This was going to need a finer touch, and so he stripped off his gloves to access the sharp points of his talons - capped while with the league to keep the prick of steel rending claws to a mere suggestion.

He felt bared, now, all his top layer removed and abandoned, the door to his room at his back. He feels the paranoia to double check the lock, reassures himself that even if he'd somehow forgotten in his haste to hide away none of the members were mad enough to try and get in. Outside Superman, of course, but he always knocked.

Still, he hurried through repairs, running diagnostics in the back of his mind as he daubed glue into the cracks and set about restructuring his own jaw. Ears swivelled. Neck rolled. Glider snaps curled.

The jaw pieces were setting nicely when there was a noise at the door, and batman whipped around, cloak flaring behind him. The pliers dropped from suddenly weak fingers.

Captain marvel stood in the doorway, eyes wide as he took in the room, face pale as he saw Batman propped up in middle, bare of his many obfuscating layers. Black tar speckled his lap, wires hung free like veins, blank eyes glowed, his jaw gaping, skinless. Glinting claws and spikes in full view, a limb discarded on the floor like garbage. His chest a dark hole, void of organs, of machinery, of anything that could make him run. A decades old terror gripped his heart.

HE SAW!

Both froze. Time stretched interminably.

The captains chest heaved for a scream, and batman was moving before he knew it, grabbing his fallen leg and lunging.

Captain marvel fell with a crack. Batman caught himself on the door. Five seconds before short term memory entered long term, had he reacted in time?

Hm.

He considered the body of the champion of magic laid in front of him, idly rebalancing the eternal tally graph of potential energies the dolls might run on in the back of his head and as always coming up none the wiser. This was a very inconvenient place for a body. Perhaps he could nudge marvel into the hallway to wake up. He glanced up and down the empty corridor, staying out of view of the camera.

Maybe he had overreacted slightly.

Bonus:

Billy and Green Lantern sat in the monitor room, ostensibly on duty but really checking out the watchtower camera feeds of the day before. Lantern was pointing at the screen.

"Here," he said, with a glee Billy didn't honestly appreciate. "Look at that. You go down like a sack of bricks and then -" he clicked forward two frames, "- this silver hand thing appears on the door frame. Look at that, that's a proper horror movie hand curl. The claws! Just missing the glint of a blood covered axe appearing from the shadows."

Billy shuddered, but couldn't help moving closer.

"What do you think it was? Can't have been batman, right?"

"You were there, you tell me." Lantern patted him on the shoulder before he could retort. "I mean, doesn't look much like him. Doesn't really have claws and his are black anyway. Pretty sure his gloves are sewn into his skin at this point."

"I didn't need that mental image," Billy said, because he really didn't.

"Could be another Robin variant? Like that black bat thing?"

"Dunno. I mean, unlikely. Maybe it was batman. Maybe he can shapeshift a little."

"We've had that on the list of possible powers for ages, still nothing firm one way or the other."

"It probably is batman -"

"But the claws -"

They trailed off.

"We'll just add it to the list. I'll save the file, hang on. We can talk about it at the do next week - you're coming right?"

"Yeah, but I've got, uh... A diplomacy thing with the yetis at nine, so I'll have to bail then."

"You always have the weirdest personal missions. Hey, maybe you can ask them about batman, pffft. Maybe he's one of them."

#Not pictured: batman in Victorian-esque drip complete with a black full face phantom of the opera mask in a brightly lit room. #Bundled up in as much cloak is polite and just a dark splotch on camera between a very bright superman and wonder woman #Alfred sarcastically pretends to shed a tear of pride #Also not pictured: batman spending five minutes straight making sure his doors locked while on one leg #long post #batman #dc comics #bruce wayne #cryptid batman #Possessed doll au #Remind me to do a Halloween one because the bats would 100% do a scare competition with the poor goons as targets #Bonus points if you freak out a rouge. It gets harder every year. #Pretty happy with how this turned out but my first plan was to have it the start of the Reveal™. The vibes were right. #Maybe once I've got more done for this au

a very cursed request, but could I ask how the first years would feel about an s/o who's basically Alameda Slim from Home on the Range? They can control animals through yodeling, very flamboyant when performing, and is all around a rough and tumble cowboy xD

Omg! I never met another person that knew this movie, so I'm glad to see someone else. Yes of course, this would be interesting!

First Years with an s/o who is a twist version of Alameda Slim from Home on the Range

Ace

Dang idk but you guys really like getting into trouble probably 💀

Ace does find you to be really fun to be around because of the countless amounts of antics you get yourself into. But also because you manage to buy him lunch every. single. time (ur a rich kid in the school change my mind)

He's never done yodeling before? But he does find it to be kinda cool. Might ask you to teach him

Overall I don't see him finding anything you do to be concerning. If anything, you guys are a nightmare together to Riddle haha

Deuce

He's a bit surprised with how flamboyant you are at first, but it's kind of nice to see you have so much confidence sometimes

He will attempt yodeling at least ONCE. But after nearly killing his vocal cords he'll never do it again 💀

You guys would be an absolute menace to anyone that tries to be mean to you guys. Like Deuce has a past of being a rough boy and you're from what would be considered "the wild west"

He might find your ability to gain so much money all the time to be surprising haha

Jack

He was a bit nervous around you at first because you had a short temper. He's a bit level-headed so he's usually the one to calm you down

Might know how to yodel but will refuse to tell you about it. He does find your ability to be very interesting

Might not like some of your more cunning tactics because he's a stickler to the rules, but sometimes he does find it fun to do pranks with you

I feel like it's an opposites attract theme between you guys, it's kinda cute honestly

Epel

You two meeting was like the worst thing to happen to Vil lol. Epel found someone who had a background similar to him, basically from the countryside and someone who wasn't afraid to be a bit more loose

You guys definitely know how to yodel. Might do it to annoy Vil late at night

Epel might invite you over to his home on the breaks and you would probably fit in right away. You're pretty good with taking care of animals on a farm, so if they happen to have any that needs care you might be called

Epel's so happy he has someone else who is like him. While he's not as short tempered you two definitely can get heated when someone bothers the two of you

Overall I feel like it's really nice for the two of you to have similar opinions and interests in things. Vil on the other hand might see all of his work to make Epel more formal shatter haha

Sebek

First didn't like your yodeling because it wasn't something he was super used to. But after a while he got used to it and honestly thought it was cool

Will try to keep you from using tricks or doing pranks, however he might end up getting involved because why not

The two of you have a loud personality and to anyone that might make you guys upset they'll have to deal with a cowboy and an angry half-fae

Overall you two are a bombastic couple. You tend to make things more flamboyant while he's more on the stiff side, but it's still nice to see two people with a lot of confidence

MAG 127 Relisten

Activity on my first listen: putting up a new fence.

This is the last of the Remains Trilogy! (MAG 40 Human Remains, MAG 92 Nothing Besides Remains, and now MAG 127 Remains to be Seen).

"Jonah. I must first and foremost decline your generous offer of a medical position servicing Millbank Penitentiary." / "I do not know what interest you have in the poor condemned souls within those walls, nor do I care to guess." I think this is the first time we hear about Jonah being affiliated with Millbank Prison?

"I have for these last months come to the unfortunate conclusion that our intimacy and friendship must cease immediately." Oh no!

What's up with the tree?

"Albrecht’s wife Carla" So her name war Carla, not Clara?

The fan transcript has an error in the German line, it's "Leg sie alle zurück", not "ala". "Alle" means "all". So taken super literally more of a "Put them all back"/"Put all of them back"?

"He turned back to me. 'You do not understand,' he said to me in German. 'I do not read the books. They read me.'" If anyone's curious, it would be "Sie verstehen nicht. Ich lese die Bücher nicht. Sie lesen mich." in German. Or maybe "Du verstehst nicht", don't know if they would be on familiar friendly or polite formal terms. I’d be guessing formal, but Fanshawe does call Albrecht by his first name in the statement...

"I became convinced that removing the books would go some way to addressing his health concerns. I expected some stiff resistance on the subject, but Albrecht’s response seemed closer to relief than any sort of distress." I mean, he asked him to put them back?

JON: "Disconcerting to find my namesake in a statement" Can relate. Feels like a jumpscare xD I was very surprised to find my name in a statement because I thought it is rather rare to encounter it in English-speaking areas.

JON: "Whatever is happening now has its origins two hundred years ago, in the work of an evil man." The plot of TMA without context!

JON: "Something’s coming. I know it is." Jonah must be so happy to get his little nightmare kingdom right on time for the 200 years anniversary of the Institute.

JON: (long sigh) "Just another scar for the collection." Does that count as foreshadowing? It certainly works very well to make us feel for Jon.

BASIRA: "…And what was that you were doing yesterday?" JON: "…When?" Ohhh, I was wondering last episode if he already went to get a live statement boost (because at the beginning of MAG 126 he winces, so he was still in pain, which got me thinking). I’d say it happened a day before this episode^^ And right here Jon was afraid he got busted.

JON: "It’s – hard. It’s like there’s a, a door, in my mind. A-a-and behind it is, is the entire ocean. Before, I didn’t notice it, but now, I – I know it’s there, and I can’t forget it, and I can feel the pressure of the water on it. I – I can keep it closed? (sigh) But sometimes, when I’m around p-people, or.. places, or.. ideas? A drop or two will push through the cracks at the edges of the door. And I’ll… know something." This and the bit in the S5 trailer remind me so much of intrusive thoughts/bad memories popping up again and again. You're kind of aware that they are waiting, so you have to keep control over your thoughts at all times. There can be triggers which make them seep through occasionally.

Basira getting abandoned by Martin without any explanation is vital to understand why she's so distrustful now. Plus maybe the fact, that she didn't notice Melanie being influenced by one of the Fears? So she's even more wary now.

ELIAS: "Maybe I – just wanted to have a chat." This season is peak smugness of Elias.

BASIRA: "So what’s with the recorder? Who gave it to you?" ELIAS: "Oh, no. That – that really did just appear in my cell." Elias already thought Jon coming to the Institute marked by the Web was a blessing of the Spider. Guessing this could also be a "sign" for him to carry on? He's so close to winning after all. And after this he arranges Breekon to bring the coffin.

BASIRA: "Do you know what they are?" ELIAS: "What a question." Does he? Do we ever find out? Can't remember...

ELIAS: "Possibly. Then again, you are beset by enemies on all sides, Basira. And, unless you expect John to record them into submission, it would seem you are in rather dire need of another option." Jon, next episode, does exactly that! (I know, Jon's the warlock who doesn't know he's a warlock. But right now with his current powers I rather see him as a bard because of the rather passive, supportive powers and bards are not to be underestimated!)

So, did Elias tell Basira that he’ll have the coffin delivered? She does immediately know that Daisy’s in there...

[alatismeni-theitsa]

i've been through the same broken & underfunded greek education system. most schools aren't that thorough in teaching much of anything, including ancient greek literature. frankly it's misleading to your nongreek followers to talk abt our contact with classics during mandatory education as if it's comparable to uni education on the field. remembering stuff you learned in class 10 years ago isn't formal education, it's scattered knowledge from your school years

I got this ask while surrounded by Greek friends of different educational backgrounds and jobs. (Theitsa goes out, what news!) So I asked them about their experiences. Not many remembered stuff from high school, or even liked the lessons. However, they all admitted the material was a lot, and their teachers "bloated their balls" with how much they insisted on analyzing things and learning grammar. One said their ancient Greek teacher pressed them so much that from ΓΕΛ they went to ΕΠΑΛ to avoid doing any mandatory ancient Greek-related lessons. They just couldn't stand more analysis of anything.

A few remembered (oddly xD) too much stuff, more than I did. (παιδια της θεωρητικης, βλεπεις) And because what I said about people having nightmares of all the ancient texts and the analyses they had to memorize in high school wasn't a lie.

Your knowledge also depends on how much you cared for these lessons in school and how much you remember from them. We are obviously on the Greek mythology side of Tumblr/internet right now so... people who are on this side paid attention. The Greek who is going to talk about Greek mythology has paid some attention and remembers stuff - and also reading new stuff. (If they say bs ofc they deserve to be called out, but they are most likely to know what they are talking about).

I never said high school education is the same to university education. I said it was formal education, too, often done by passionate teachers with PhDs. And that the things that we hear in our 16, the people who mythsplain our classics to us, hear them correctly for the first time at 20+ (and sometimes they don't even read the actual texts, and other times reading them is not even mandatory in their greek classics domain).

Do you dismiss the language and math knowledge we got in school as well because "it's scattered knowledge from your school years"? Are these lessons not the basics of larger studies we delve into more as we grow? Do you consider them of no value? They didn't set up any ground for how we think as people, and how we approach relative problems in the future?

Yes, our system is broken and underfunded. I had shitty teachers too, I was cold in winter, we had no nurses, no elevators, ceilings fell on our heads. But the material itself is competitive, especially about our own past.

In high school, we even compared what we learned (in math, for example) and how "behind" the middle and high schools of the US were in the same year. Richer schools don't necessarily produce "better" education. I know teachers and they tell me the material and the expectations by the Ministry of Education rise by the year. "how are the kids going to learn this stuff?" they wonder out loud.

I am of course advocating for funding schools! I am just saying that there are some great teachers there and they teach well in spite of the shitty system. (On average) Because Greeks, as people/culture, value quality education a lot)

SxF episode 25 German dub

Last episode. Now what :(

Anya said "Kalamotten" instead of "Klamotten" again XD

When Loid heard Damian say he won't meet with his father, his reaction was "Excuse me? Damn it!"

Idk I found really funny the contrast between the formal "excuse me" and the informal "damn it" side by side XD

"I am really sorry, dear Damian" when he thought about how he'd have to intrude in his meeting with his father.

"Finally we meet, Donovan Desmond." They don't seem to be holding back in this dub. Like I'm sure a part of Twilight was thinking like "FUCKING FINALLY" but the original version wasn't really too willing to show that part. Instead the German dub was like YEAH THIS IS A BIG MOMENT OKAY? OKAY.

And again, when he thought about how to approach Desmond and see what topics to touch upon, he said "This is my chance. It's finally here."

But once Desmond rejected him, Twilight thought "No chance, huh?"

That's rough buddy.

No again I really like seeing another side of that. This is why I decided to tackle another dub, and honestly... I appreciate that effort more than whatever the English dub did. They're still staying true to his character while allowing the audience a slightly more open (to himself, at least) expression of him.

And ooooooohhhh when he did the thing going from "So this is why you use force to bring other nations to their knees?" to "You're absolutely right about that". Chills all over again. The voice actor did a spectacular job showing the difference. 👏 HE 👏 UNDERSTOOD 👏 THE 👏 ASSIGNMENT 👏

(sorry for not providing clips for that, but it's honestly a lot of work to make those -_- you can still watch the anime, both original and dubbed, with a free account on crunchyroll, and I'd recommend that if you're interested)

"The things my daughter utters are often a book with seven seals for me" (idk if the translation makes full sense but yeah this is what he said XD Master Spy brought into a dead end by the forces of a five-year-old)

When Loid turned to leave, he told Donovan "I hope we meet again". Then he turned to ask Damian his favor... and Damian's reaction was interesting.

"I don't have time for this proletarian child!"

Wooooow. Wow. So they are going for the "Ostania is actually a capitalistic nightmare" after all XD It took eleven episodes since the last time they touched upon that, but that's enough for me to not consider the dub anti-communistic propaganda XD Not that that makes it pro-communist, I didn't expect that much, I know the world I live in. But showing how upper classes consider the proletariat as lesser and not important is satisfactory enough for me as a political commentary against Ostania's government. They saved it.

NOW WHAT T_T

Mega Man X6 Part 4

Ok so.... I need to apologise in advance XD

Last time I said there was going to be a sort of filler video showing how to get some extra stuff and a hidden cutscene.

However I did all of that....only to then realise I hadn’t hit the record button. Oops.

Anyway this is the cutscene in question, which you unlock after obtaining 3000 Nightmare Soul with one of the 2 characters BEFORE beating the 8 bosses or High Max (which is INCREDIBLY grindy and also cryptic in its execution)

So this is Gate and Alia’s backstory! Locked behind a hidden cutscene...wonderful.

Well technically Alia does give you snippets of her past during small debriefings after every boss...but not only are they really small they’re also told to you out of order due to the way Mega Man games’ level progression works, meaning that you might get one instance of Alia talking about Gate like you already know who the guy is...only to later give him a more formal introduction like she’s just starting her story. It’s such a goddamn mess.

Not that Gate’s backstory is that interesting anyway, when you boil it down to it it’s basically about 50% of Wily’s only he’s technically more justified in his grudge because he was more literally fucked over by his collegues. But he has none of Wily’s charm and personality, really the only reason Gate is held in any kind of regard is because he’s not Sigma which ain’t high praise to start with

Also we get an explanation for what the Nightmare virus is!

It’s the Phantom Ruby from Sonic Forces. In more ways than one. At least I think

So Alia says here that the Nightmare is capable of corrupting Reploids and controlling them. That is correct since during gameplay Nightmare enemies may infect normal Reploids turning them into zombie-like robots.

However this does NOT explain all the Nightmare phenomena we encounter throughout the stages.

At the start of the game Isoc claims that the Nightmare can show Reploids a “kind of dream” and “confuse them”. During stages Alia may comment on some Nightmare Phenomena saying that she can’t detect them on her computer even though X and Zero are affected by them.

I take this all to mean that the Nightmare can alter Reploids’ perception of reality, making them see things that aren’t really there that their bodies also think are real, hence why only X and Zero are affected but Alia (who isn’t present on the field) can’t detect it.

Again I THINK this is the implication since the game doesn’t get any clearer than this However the Nightmare can also be used to create a crazy copy of Zero appatrently as we saw at the beginning

Nightmare souls can also be used to power up Reploids by collecting them for some reason

So really the Nightmare can just do whatever the fuck it wants to. Ok good.

And now: the Gate stages

So I’ve made it pretty clear that I do not think highly of Mega Man X6′s level design in the slightest. Indeed I’d go as far as to say that this game has probably the worst level design I’ve ever seen in a commercially released videogame. The only stuff that comes close are fan-games and fan rom hacks specifically made to be bullshit hard

The final stages of Mega Man X6 are the 2 worst stages in Mega Man history. Bar none.

Oh I may have made them look easy but that is purely because I now know how they work, on your first time however you’re gonna have a miserable time.

This is worse than The End of the World from Sonic 06. Much worse. The mere idea of comparing the 2 is laughable, about the only thing the latter has over these two pieces of shit is 06′s trademark loading times

Let’s talk about them shall we?

As soon as you start the first stage you’re gonna hit a roadblock within the first minute unless you have one of 3 kinds of setups

See that tall wall with insta-kill spikes at the beginning?

Literally impossible to overcome unless you have one of the following things:

1) X’s Shadow Armor, which is invulnerable to spikes and makes this first shithole more manageable. Howevere the Shadow Armor parts can be a bitch and a half to get due to their placements in the levels and what you need to actually obtain them so it’s very possible you won’t have it when starting this level

2) X with Blizzard Wolfang’s weapon, which creates small ice platforms, COUPLED with the hidden Jumper part, which allows you to jump higher. If you don’t happen to have found the Jumper part or you haven’t equipped it before starting the stage then congratulations: you’re fucked

3) Zero with Rainy Turtloid’s ability which allows him to stick to ceilings. If you don’t happen to have unlocked Zero or have unlocked the Gate stages by beating High Max BEFORE beating Rainy Turtloid then you are also fucked and you’ll kind of have to figure out you’ll have to at least go back and beat that fucker if you wish to proceed

The rest of the stage is just a marathon of random shit being flung at you at total random. Fortunately it’s pretty short.

Then we fight the Nightmare Mother, which is an awful awful boss, way too big and fast to be dodged. Fighting her with Zero can be a death sentence due to his lower defence and the fact that hitting her cores with his sword can be an absolute bitch.

Then we finally get to Gate’s stage 2

This....is the pits. It’s the worst.

The first half of the level is just spike city + a shitton of enemies halfassedly put through the levels in EXTREMELY awkward positions but ok we’re used to this

Then we take on High Max with his incredibly repetitive pattern, high as fuck durability and cheap as hell second phase where he just keeps spamming his nigh impossible to dodge attack.

Then you beat him, the level end jingle plays, your character teleports out of there, you breathe a sigh of relief...

....and then the level resumes.

The second half differs depending on the character

For Zero we have Metal Shark Player 2.0 because we just loved that stage so much right?

However X gets something potentially far nastier

His second half is essentially a recreation of Rainy Turtloid’s gimmick of finding and destroying small gizmos while acid rain is pouring down. That’s not the bad part.

The issue is a platforming section you encounter about halfway through

You need to reach a distant platform but there’s a particularily low ceiling that won’t allow you to simply dash jump over there. You’ll need to do a mid air dash

And therein lies the big issue

Say you got into this level with the Shadow Armor, which is very likely given its ability to nullify spikes which this stage’s first half is littered with. In fact I’d say that everyone who managed to get the Armor will use it here on their first playthrough, I know I did.

However by doing this you’ll have effectively caused yourself a game over. You’ll just not be aware of it until this point. Why?

Because the Shadow Armor doesn’t have a mid air dash.

There are TECHNICALLY two ways to circumvent this

You can equip a part that allows you to dash for longer distances which will allow you to make the jump even with the Shadow Armor....but it’s highly unlikely you’ll have it equipped when entering this stage given that it’s pretty useless overall and that’s assuming you even found it in the first place

Or you can do this:

Look at how fucking precise you have to be, how much you have to exploit X’s moves. This was by no means intentionally designed, this is the kind of shit you pull when you want to sequence break or when you wanna break the level for speedrunning purposes. You’re not gonna know how to do this during your first time, leaving you literally no choice but to restart the whole fucking stage but with another armor.

I refuse to believe this wasn’t intentional

Yeah X6 is a rushjob and a half but this....this feels like too much for a coincidence, this feels sadistically planned: have the first half of the level be easily beateable with the Shadow Armor and then throw in a specific obstacle that’s pretty much impossible to overcome with it just a few SECONDS before the boss door. I have the impression that the devs didn’t want to make this game in the first place, that they knew that Capcom was being a greedy cunt milking this series past its expiration date and snuck in shit like this out of spite.

Regardless of the character Gate himself is the worst boss of the game: you can’t damage him, you just gotta wait for him to shoot his energy balls and destroy them to damage him and hope he’ll die before you do in this cramped as hell room and also hope to whatever god you may or may not believe in that he doesn’t waste half of your fucking life time just going back and forth without launching his balls because otherwise you can’t damage him in anyway!!

Also Isoc is dead for some reason and if it wasn’t obvious by this point he was actually Wily, much like Serges before him. This is actually the last time the X series ever uses him in any way and technically the last time we ever see him in the timeline.

I hope to God that this wasn’t supposed to be his actual, permanent death, but rather a Sigma-type situation much like when Serges died in X2, because otherwise God help me this is even worse than the way Eggman’s been treated in the past.

Well....it’s time to end this once and for all I guess...

What if Fushimi got angrier than usual at Domyouji for his reports or something and goes too far in yelling at him maybe and he feels bad so he tries to apologize in his own way :D

Poor Fushimi, having to apologize to Doumyouji is probably like one of his nightmares XD Imagine this like post-ROK, say Fushimi's been trying his best to be a little more personable and not instantly snap at the alphabet boys all the time when they do something stupid. Obviously Doumyouji is the one who tests Fushimi's new resolve the most, like Fushimi doesn't see why he has to be nice when Doumyouji insists on continuing to be an idiot. Fushimi's trying though, at the very least he isn't going to throw knives at people anymore. Then say one day Doumyouji makes some kind of huge mistake, like he accidentally destroys a week's worth of paperwork and now Fushimi has to do the whole thing over again. When Fushimi realizes what happened he is just super mad, imagine Doumyouji all nervous like 'oops, sorry, Fushimi-san but no hard feelings right' and Fushimi just snaps and starts ranting at Doumyouji about what a worthless idiot he is.

Afterward it turns out that Fushimi had some kind of backup that kicked in and all the paperwork was saved, Fushimi's relieved and doesn't even really think about Doumyouji until the next day when he walks into the office and Doumyouji is noticeably quiet. Doumyouji seems uncharacteristically crestfallen too, like he's sort of depressed and it's very obvious that he's upset about something. Fushimi begins to have vague uncomfortable feelings but tries to clamp them down. Later the squad are all eating dinner and Doumyouji is absent so of course they're all gossiping about what could be wrong with him and Kamo mentions that Doumyouji said Fushimi-san yelled at him. Immediately everyone looks over at Fushimi who gets all defensive like I just called him an idiot and he deserved it and I don't see what the problem is. Hidaka's like maybe you hurt his feelings and Fushimi says that can't be the case though really he's feeling all uncomfortable again. Kamo says it did seem like Doumyouji was taking it personally and Fushimi grumbles that it wasn't personal he was just...annoyed. He doesn't want to admit that he knows he should apologize but of course it keeps eating at him, seeing Doumyouji looking all quiet and sad and finally Fushimi gives this heavy sigh like fine fine I'll handle it.

The next day Doumyouji is working on a report and he's writing it properly, no drawings or extra embellishments at all and Fushimi walks up to him. Doumyouji straightens and is being all formal like yes sir, Fushimi sighs again and hands him a box of crayons. Doumyouji looks at the crayons in confusion and Fushimi looks away as he mutters that Doumyouji should just use these for the report. He says that Doumyouji is still an idiot for messing things up but it was fixable and the atmosphere in the office isn't the same when Doumyouji's in this mood, so just use the crayons already. Fushimi grudgingly admits that the 'old' Doumyouji is better than this current one and Doumyouji just gets this slowly dawning smile as he realizes that Fushimi is actually apologizing to him. Imagine he gets all excited now, jumping up and patting Fushimi's back like aw Fushimi-san I didn't know you liked me so much and of course now Fushimi's all annoyed again like I don't like you stop touching me.

#Fushimi Saruhiko #Doumyouji Andy #Talking K #Saru is not so good at this apologizing thing XD #especially to Doumyouji #like does he really have to #but he feels secretly bad and now he has to apologize or stare at Doumyouji's aad puppy face forever

Winter Court Wedding

By: SassyShoulderAngel319

Fandom/Character(s): A Court of Thorns and Roses Series/Rhysand

Rating: PG/K+

Original Idea: This has been in my head for a few days and I had to get it out of my head so I could write other stuff XD

Notes: (Masterlist)(By Character)(About Me) 2,356 words... yup it ran away from me again. This one pretends Tamlin isn’t a terrible person so we get Rhys instead 😉 @itscheybaby

^^^^^

“Rhysand?” I called through the town house.

“Yes?” His voice was coming from the kitchen.

I went downstairs, holding the box I’d found in our room. “What’s this for?” I asked, indicating the heavy fur-lined black cloak with silver embroidery of the moon and stars up the sides.

“Can’t I give you a gift just because I want to?” His smirk was almost too casual for me to believe him.

“You know I prefer coats in Velaris,” I replied. “So there’s something going on.”

He sighed, wings drooping. “Alright. You caught me,” he muttered. “We’re going to the Winter Court.”

“What for?”

“Kallias and Vivane’s wedding.”

“Didn’t they get married like an hour after he got back from Under the Mountain?”

Rhysand folded his arms, tucking his wings against his back a little tighter. “Yes,” he said carefully, “but they’re hosting a formal reception for their court, as well as for the other High Lords. I’m sure Kallias doesn’t actually want to invite us, or any of the other High Lords for that matter, but Mor and Vivane are really good friends and I don’t think he wants to harm that relationship.”

“So Mor’s coming with us, then?”

“Unfortunately, no. She has to put out a fire in the Court of Nightmares.”

“Literal or figurative?”

“Figurative. Keir is pitching fits again.”

“Ah. Same old, same old, then.”

“Pretty much.”

I decided to change the subject.

“So, the cloak is to keep me warm in the Winter Court climate, I’m assuming.”

“Yes. Hopefully without damaging your dress. Sometimes your coats rumple the skirts. While we’re in Velaris—and anywhere in the Night Court that’s not the Court of Nightmares, really—I don’t mind. But you know what we look like to the other courts. The image we present.”

Wealthy, dangerous, ruthless, powerful Night Court High Fae. Immaculate and pristine. Never even a hair out of place. Always in control of every situation. The High Lord who always got what he wanted, his thunderstorm of a High Lady by his side. Nary a trace of the Illyrian half-breed with self-worth issues and the Autumn Court runaway who’d never belonged anywhere.

“I know,” I said.

Rhys approached me and pulled the cloak out of its small box. “Besides,” he said, slinging it around me, “it does look rather fetching on you.” He bent his head and pressed a kiss to my neck.

“Charmer,” I teased.

He laughed. “I could say the same about you.”

I wrapped my arms around him. “I missed you, while you were… gone.”

Even though he insisted he was fine, I still did my best not to mention Under the Mountain. The secrets he’d been forced to keep, the things he’d been forced to do to keep me and the rest of the Night Court safe. We talked about it when he needed to, and I would always be there for him, but I didn’t need to force the past forty-nine years on him.

Rhys put his arms around my waist under the cloak and buried his nose in my hair. “I missed you too.”

“So when do we leave for the Winter Court?”

He knew I was changing the subject away from what I didn’t want to bring up, but he let me. “Tomorrow. We may stay overnight, we may not.”

“Shame Mor’s not coming with.”

“Agreed. She’d love to see Viviane again.”

“We’ll find some way to reunite them. How about that?”

“I think it sounds delightful. We’ll put them in a sound-proof room so we don’t have to hear them squealing into the late hours of the night.” His sarcasm was not lost on me. I chuckled. We swayed in place for a bit. “Let’s go get prepared for tomorrow, darling,” he said.

“Okay,” I agreed.

—

I already miss the Northern mountains, I thought at Rhys, wrapping the beautiful new cloak tighter around me to suppress a shiver. Even they aren’t as cold as this.

He hid his amused smile with a lazy smirk, boredly surveying the Winter Court ice waste around us as the reindeer-pulled sleigh whisked over the snow. I agree, he thought back, but it’s not for very long.

The small tiara I’d chosen to accompany my gown was like I’d wrapped an icicle around my scalp. The metal of it practically frozen to my skin.

The sleigh turned a corner.

“By the Cauldron,” I breathed.

The palace was made of ice. It towered into the sky with sharp jags and icicle towers, hexagonal walls filtering sunlight from behind. White-furred bears patrolled the battlements alongside the soldiers. All of whom sported white hair and pale blue uniforms. Snow was falling, but there was only a scattering of clouds. The High Lord’s magic, then, probably.

It might be a good idea to close your jaw, Rhys advised, no sarcasm present. We have an image to maintain while we’re here.

Right, I thought.

The sleigh driver pulled us up to a half-circle drive of packed snow. At the apex of the half-circle were two massive doors to the palace, wide open to the deep blue gloom of indoors. After slowing to a stop, we gave the driver a curt but polite thank-you and swept out of the sleigh. I caught Rhys flicking a finger before offering me his arm. What magic did you just do? I thought at him.

Tipping the driver. It’s polite but I definitely don’t want to be seen doing it. Would ruin the monster reputation I’ve spent centuries building. An image accompanied his reply—of a cheeky wink. I sent him back nothing but laughter.

An attendant—a young “lesser” faerie female with skin the color, texture, and reflectiveness of powdered snow—guided us inside. It was a lot warmer within the ice-crafted walls than I would have expected. I almost wanted to remove my cloak. The attendant looked absolutely terrified of us. Rhys and I barely acknowledged she was there, both keeping impassive expressions on our faces. I wished I could reassure her that everything was alright—that we were friendly—but I knew why I couldn’t.

She led us up what technically counted as a spiral staircase—despite it being hexagonal and not perfectly circular—to a suite of rooms. “His Lordship hopes you will be comfortable here,” the attendant said.

“Thank you.” A curt dismissal from Rhys. She scampered away.

Once she was gone and the doors closed, both of us relaxed. “I hate acting like that,” I muttered.

“Me too. But every High Lord puts on a face,” Rhys said. “You remember Helion. He seems terribly prickly and temperamental in public but is quite amusing and kind in private.” Rhys sat on a white sofa embroidered with sky blue winter flora and a few snowflakes.

“I do remember Helion. I also remember wishing you’d given me a warning about it. I was ready to punch him for being so rude to you.”

Rhys winked at me. “That wouldn’t have been nearly as fun,” he replied. I rolled my eyes. “Well, love, there’s nothing to do but wait until the reception. We did arrive a little early.”

“Four hours is ‘a little’?” I joked.

All I got was a shrug. “I like making statements,” he replied casually. “I arrive when I wish and I don’t care about their scheduling. Usually I would prefer to show up late to make it seem like I really don’t care about whatever it is they’ve had the courage to invite me to, but sometimes it’s more fun to arrive much earlier than planned and make that everyone else’s problem.”

I laughed. “You do a good job of making your act seamless.”

“Centuries of practice, darling.” He lounged on the sofa but patted the seat next to him. I sat beside him. It was almost warm enough inside to remove my cloak, but not quite. Rhys’ body heat was helping make up the difference. “You look beautiful, by the way.”

I grinned. “Thanks. You’re quite stunning yourself.” Black jacket, immaculately embroidered in silver and gold, deep midnight blue shirt underneath buttoned all the way up to hide his tattoos, black slacks with a single ring of silver thread around the ankles. It had taken me an hour to convince him to wear a blue shirt instead of black. But it really brought out his eyes. Dimmed the blazing, powerful violet just enough to reveal that his irises were actually blue.

“I’m always stunning,” he replied.

I smacked him in the chest with the back of my hand. “Arrogant,” I accused.

He kissed me. “You like it though.”

I rolled my eyes.

—

The ballroom was enormous. Pillars of glimmering ice reflected faelight bobbing around the ceiling. It was lightly snowing inside. Winter Court High Fae and faeries milled around, talking, eating, drinking. A line extended away from the bride and groom. Well-wishers offering their congratulations.

Rhysand wasn’t going to bother waiting in the line. I knew that. We’d approach from behind or from the other side, offer our regards, and then leave.

But not immediately.

The ballroom was warm enough that I passed my cloak to a waiting attendant. My gown was so dark violet it was almost black. A bell-shaped skirt dotted with beads in the shape of stars swished over the ice floor, lightly dusted with snow. The gown’s sleeves barely capped my shoulders, but the long black satin gloves that ended two inches from the bottom of the sleeves helped keep my arms warm. The bandeau tiara had three dark amethysts glinting among the white diamonds.

The finery wasn’t terribly comfortable, but I knew the effect it had on others.

Rhys and I wandered the ballroom, mingling only occasionally—and only if the other party dared approach us first.

Including High Lord Tamlin of the Spring Court and his charming bride-to-be, Feyre Cursebreaker. Both of them looking happy and healthy and more in love than ever.

“Didn’t expect to see you here, Rhys,” Tamlin said begrudgingly. His eyes flicked over to me. I didn’t have to be daemati like Rhys to know what he was thinking. The whispers of the other faeries milling about followed me the moment we entered the room, and Tamlin was likely in agreement.

Freak. Unnatural. Witch. Lightning was not meant to be harnessed by magic like that. She doesn’t belong in any court.

I thought about snapping something at Tamlin, but Rhys cut in smoothly, “We could hardly miss an important function such as this, Tamlin.” He inclined his head at the female on Tamlin’s arm. “A pleasure to see you again, Feyre.”

“Wish I could say the same about you,” she replied dryly.

Rhys tsked, but didn’t say anything to her. “Enjoy the party,” he said to both of them instead before pulling me away. I waved at Feyre, letting an apology touch my expression. Her glare softened a moment and she lifted her fingers as though to wave back, but thought better of it.

I turned away. She’d saved Tamlin and freed the other High Lords and their courts from Amarantha. She gave Rhys back to me—and I couldn’t even give her the thanks she deserved. Electricity crackled in my veins. Rhys jolted slightly as I shocked him. No one else would have noticed.

Easy, he thought at me. What’s wrong?

I let him into an antechamber in my shields, to see what I thought and felt without having to explain. Thoughtful silence followed. We’ll find a way to let you thank her. For us both to thank her. She gave me back to you, too.

Thank you, I thought at him.

Of course. I felt a loving caress against my shields. I sent one in return.

Rhys took me through the crowd, occasionally offering greetings to the High Fae and faeries who didn’t cower as we passed. Rhys’s damper on his power had been loosened. Not released completely, but relaxed—allowing tendrils of darkness to drift from him like shafts of steam. It was an intimidation tactic. He did it a lot.

“Kallias. Viviane,” Rhys said as we approached the bride and groom. Both looked resplendent. Viviane in her simple but no doubt expensive gown that glittered like powdered snow under the moonlight. They turned to us. “Morrigan sends her regards and regrets that she couldn’t make it.” Those words were directed at Viviane. She smiled at the both of us. More warmly at me than at Rhys.

“Congratulations to you both,” I said with a genuine smile. “You deserve to be happy with one another.”

Kallias gave me a cold stare. Wondering where my calculating, ruthless High Lady mask was, no doubt. But I did want them to know that I was happy for them. That I was happy they’d found one another after Amarantha.

“Thank you,” Viviane said before Kallias could reply. She reached out and took my hand in both of hers. “And thank you for coming.”

“Wouldn’t miss it,” Rhys said smoothly, smirking slightly.

“We left our gift on the table with the others,” I said softly to Viviane.

She gave me a warm grin. “Thank you. Thank you, both.”

I returned the grin and Rhys bade a curt goodbye to Kallias before we retreated back into the crowd.

“Care to dance?” I asked.

“With you? Always.” He smiled at me. For a moment I forgot we were in another court. All I could think of was him. All I could see was those blazing eyes—that lazy smile. His warmth against me.

I didn’t realize I must have been showing that on my face because he leaned down and kissed me. “The rest of tonight is going to be so much fun,” he whispered suggestively, giving me that playful smirk he always had when he knew we were both going to get what we wanted from each other before the night was over.

A shiver that had nothing to do with the Winter Court chill travelled down my spine. Excitement. “Oh, I think it will be,” I replied.

Porcelain Jekyll au

-

This is gonna be long so heres a tldr

TLDR: Jekyll gets taken to a sort of real nightmare party full of dolls, if he misbehaves they'll kill him and if he's a perfect gentleman he'll turn into a doll. There's a branch where he's rescued and two where he turns into a doll

--

•The au starts with Jekyll going to sleep, timeline honestly doesn't matter as long as Frankenstein, Jasper, and Jekyll are all around. Could start where tgs currently is? But Jasper doesn't accidentally wake Jekyll up in his panic

•"The Party of Dolls" is basically a supernatural nightmare? I haven't found a better explanation but basically it's a nightmare that's real and happening, while still "just" being a nightmare. It takes you to like a different dimension while you sleep basically? (The party of dolls isn't the only one but that's not relevant)

•The dolls invite specific people, they invite people who want to be perfect. People who dont want anyone to hate them or find a flaw. Jekyll fits this perfectly

•Jekyll is taken to the party. He tries to be polite despite being unnerved. There's another human at the party, he doesn't learn the man's name before the man gets ripped apart by the dolls for shouting

The dolls target specific people, but they can still take "fodder", people they know will immediately break the rules. So that their actual guests can learn what happens if they are impolite. The dolls also surround guest on all sides, and have them in the exact middle, so that the guest cannot just run out

•Jekyll is terrified, now knowing he'll die if he does something wrong, he tries his best to be perfect

•Unknown to Jekyll, if he's "perfect" he'll start turning into a doll. Ultimately it's a die or die situation

•Jekyll does start to notice the porcelain creeping up him, its be hard not to. He is very much (silently) panicking. But,, the more porcelain on him the more calm he becomes, the more he acts as if this is a simple party and nothing is wrong

•Eventually he reaches a point where he'd actively resist being taken away from the party, but still not fully covered by porcelain

A quick note, Hyde can't do anything about the situation. He wasn't invited and the dolls are suppressing him so much he can hardly even tell what's happening, or leave the mindscape. He's absolutely terrified about this because he can Feel something is wrong and everything is just becoming more and more suffocating

Now onto the branches! There are 2 and a half branches for this au!

Branch 1: Jekyll gets rescued

(Assuming this takes place at Chapter 11 Page 8)

•Jekyll is asleep on the couch, Jasper rushes in the room like his panic on the page except this time Jekyll does not wake up at Jasper's sudden entry. Jasper, noticing Jekyll is asleep, silently contemplates on if this problem is really worth waking Jekyll. Because on the one hand he's probably overreacting in his mind, but on the other Jekyll is really the only person he can panic to?

•He decides not to wake Jekyll, and wait until it's properly morning or noon?, now that the panic is a bit subdued he probably still has stuff to ask Jekyll

•He goes up to find Jekyll is still asleep, and Zosi frantically pawing at Jekyll's chest, occasionally nibbling him, and seemingly really wants to wake Jekyll up. Jasper tries to wake him up but it seems no matter how hard he tries Jekyll stays asleep

•Seeing how Lanyon probably isn't in the Society at the moment (and besides Jasper is pretty sure Robert dislikes him) and he's currently avoiding Rachel. Jasper cant ask Jekyll's friends if this is normal behavior. Why doesn't he ask the lodgers? Maybe a combination of they all seem busy and still being a bit intimidated by them? So he goes to his last best bet, Frankenstein. She's, kinda a doctor and has traveled quite a bit, so she may know whats up with Jekyll and why Zosi is panicking

Note: This whole decision happens in like a few seconds while Jasper is panicking

•Frankenstein does not ease Jasper's worries

•Ah, I guess there has to be some sort of tell, something that makes it clear someone is in one of these "supernatural nightmares" and that Jekyll is specifically in the party of dolls. Idk yet what that tell would be. But Frankenstein knows and thats all that matters

•They take Jekyll back to the attic, lock the entry, and make preparations for a rescue mission

•Frankenstein will be going in to try and distract the dolls while Jasper will be looking for Jekyll. Creature is there as plan B in case the dolls get hostile towards them (as Creature is fully capable of lifting them all up and running out of there. And the dolls are very likely to get hostile towards them)

•They get in, how? I have no clue. But they do. Probably a potion?

•Jasper quickly finds Jekyll and tries to convince him to leave. Much to Jasper's concern, Jekyll doesn't want to leave, and keeps brushing the danger off

Frankenstein and Jasper dont know much about the nightmare. Its likely all they know is that its filled with dolls and people who are "invited" are never seen again/found dead

•Frankenstein's distraction consists of pointing out flaws in how the dolls act. The dolls keep finding excuses, but eventually become agitated with her

•Japser notices the porcelain on Jekyll and loudly panics, attracting the already agitated dolls attention

•Creature picks them all up and runs towards the doors. Jekyll is greatly struggling against this rescue attempt, but once they get out of the building and onto the stretch of yard before the exit Jekyll calms down significantly

Jekyll did not actually calm down, but rather Hyde managed to weasel control after they left the building. Hyde absolutely does not want to be at this party, and Jekyll's struggling could've jeopardized the rescue

•They get back! Whatever porcelain was on Jekyll falls off him with ease. He's angry for maybe half a day or more. But when the doll's control completely leaves him, he's nothing but relieved

Sidenote: It seems reasonable that this whole experience would leave Jekyll with a fear of going to sleep. Perhaps give him something that can deter these types of nightmares? A desire for the comfort of another person, at least in the room, while he's asleep?

Branch 2: Jekyll fully turns into a doll

•Well either Jekyll went to sleep at his own home or some place where no one would think to look for him, as if he was right in the society they'd certainly take notice that something is wrong

•Jekyll fully turns to porcelain. Once he's a full doll they give him new clothes (the sand/beige colored suit I tend to draw porcelain Jekyll in)

Previously, Jekyll had been wearing the suit he wears at any formal party, like the ball in An Army Of Nightmares

•Porcelain Jekyll gets back to the real world. This is not entirely out of the ordinary for the dolls to do. If a guest was reasonably young or famous they'll be returned once a doll, to make themselves more known or respectable before they "die" and go back to the party full time

•Zosi notices something is Wrong while Jekyll is asleep and tries to wake him up to no avail, Zosi can't bark for attention and he's scared of leaving Jekyll alone, the few times he does go out to find someone he's largely ignored or avoided, or they misinterpret what the zombie pup wants. When Jekyll does wake up, Zosi immediately notices that it's not Jekyll, at least not anymore. Zosi knows he's supposed to get rid of any evil creatures, but this was once Jekyll. So the pup runs away and avoids him instead

•ooo I dont want to describe this whole branch? This has already taken way longer for me to write then I want XD, just check out this reblog chain about it bsksndks

•

Branch 2 ½: Jekyll dies

•Jekyll fully turns into a doll, however instead of entering the real world his real body simply dies. He's found rotting in bed. "Jekyll" however, is still in the party. (Fun fact, this was the original plan for the au)

-----

Extra notes:

▪All the dolls in the party were once people, except for maybe one or two? A handful? But it has long since been lost who's who. And it never mattered

▪Lanyon would not have ever been invited to the party. He doesn't seem to want to be a gentleman, and he knows too much about etiquette to be fodder either

▪Jasper is a proper candidate to be invited, and in branch 2 "Jekyll" is giving him alot more lessons on how to be a proper gentleman, planning to invite Jasper to the party at some point

▪The party always has a host that they cycle though, the host talks to guests a bit more than everyone else

▪Porcelain Jekyll gets to keep his new clothes when returning to the real world

OK! THIS IS PROBABLY MY FAVOURITE FLUFFYNIGHTKILLER HEADCANNON I'VE COME UP WITH.

My people, I love this and I hope you do. Its a long one, but I promise its worth it.

So ever since I read this head cannon from @yuriyuruandyuraart I've had one nagging thought.

Polygamous marriage is illegal.

So as much as I loved this story of them getting engaged, they couldn't ever get married, but I didn't wanna rain on everyone's parade so I kept it to myself. Until now!

While talking with @jann-the-bean I came up with this and Jan loved it! So I hope you guys do to.

So imagine that the 3 of them are going around telling their friends and family about their engagement, in the classic happy kind of way. It's all well and good, Dream is thrilled to find out his brother is so happy. However, then he realises the law and Dream pulls his brother aside.

Dream "Uhh Night...Can I talk to you?"

Nightmare "yeah?"

Dream "I'm so happy that you got engaged brother.."

Nightmare "........."

Nightmare "but?"

Dream "but..... But isn't Polygamous marriage illegal?"

Nightmare "......."

And that was the glass shattering moment. Dream wasn't trying to be cruel or anything like that. He was just generally concerned that Nightmare hadn't thought of that.

So later that night, Nightmare brought it up to his partners and of course both of them where upset when they remembered that law. So began a long talk about what they could do. In the end Ccino mostly just said that it didn't matter to him if they were married, so long as they were together. Since he's still just a small city boy, he didn't really see that there was to much they could do, he was content to just maybe have a ceremony where they promise to be life partners, but not marry.

Nightmare and Killer on the other hand were not satisfied with that.

That Night, when Ccino was asleep the two got to talking. I like to think that over the years that Nightmare and Killer have become icons for the poly community, much like Elton Jon is one for the gay community. The two of them decided that they were going to use this to fight for the right to marry each other.

It started small. Posts on social media, comments in interviews. They started speaking out that they should be allowed to be wed. Because they loved each other and the law shouldn't stop them. There where online polls and campaigns as their fan base who had been a huge fan of the throuple started to back them up.

This is when Ccino became alerted to what they were doing. He was scared that they could damage their reputations and careers over this. He told them that he wasn't worth everything they were risking. That if they really wanted to get married, the two of them could and he'd just keep being their boyfriend.

They told him no and then lovingly told him to shut up and they would take care of it.

So began the start of a long legal battle, which all together spanned about 2 years. From when they first started talking about it online, to when the find judgment was made. They were denied.

In the end the court ruled that if polygamy was legalised, it would cause alot of issues. Its a taboo for a reason, and some people would just abuse it for their own gain.

Both Killer and Nightmare were heart broken. Ccino told them that he was so proud of them for trying and that he loved them more then ever. But Killer and Nightmare were still really upset.

This upset Ccino, because he'd seen how hard they had worked and as he thought over everything, he realised that he was actually irritated himself. In fact, he was a little angry. So now it was his turn to say No.

Ccino "you know what? No!"

Killer "what?"

Ccino "they said they couldn't legalise it because people would abuse the system"

Nightmare "yeah?"

Ccino "well I say No! That doesn't apply to us. You aren't some guy who wants a bunch of wives. We are 3 people who all love each other equally. We should have the right to marry"

Killer and nightmare "........"

Killer "we thought you said that you were ok with it"

Ccino "I'm not. Of course I'm not! I want to marry you both! "

So this prompted them to start a new campaign. If Polygamy couldn't be legalised for everyone, then they was campaign for the court to give the 3 of them legal right to marry. If a man could get the rights to marry himself (true story) and a women could be granted the right to marry a building (again, true story) then the 3 of them should be granted permission to marry.

So they took it back to court and this time Ccino took a more active roll in it, though Nightmare and Killer were more dominant. Ccino appeared with Nightmare and Killer in some interviews, but even if his mental health was much better at this point, he still couldn't fully handle all the pressure. But he put in a lot of work behind the scenes to help his partners in the case.

They Luckily still had the support of the public. They argued that they didn't want to abuse the system, they didn't want to have the bunch or wives or a bunch of husbands. They were 3 people who all loved each other deeply and just wanted to be married to each other.

Imagine the judge in court asking them why they wanted to make it legal to marry Ccino and why they couldn't just date him. And Killer just stands up like.

"dude have you seen him!? Who wouldn't want to make that fluffy marshmallow their husband?"

Then as Jan said this leaves poor Ccino (who is sat next to him) just a blushing mess and he says “Killer, don’t be so loud it’s embarrassing..”

Meanwhile, nightmare staring the judge dead in the eyes.

“I agree he’s to adorable not to marry, I mean if we don’t marry him someone else may try to steal him. And I refuse to let that happen”

(thanks for these ideas Jan)

After another 2 years or so of fighting for it. After all the public backing and the long process. Killer, Nightmare and Ccino are finally granted the right to marry.

Just imagine Nightmare trying to keep composed in court, though his having a little party in his head, and Killer on the other hand just stand on his table in court like.

"yes! Ha!"

Then he points at Ccino "guess what fluffy buns! We are marrying you!"

Ccino is so shocked, but he's also so happy. He truly never would have dreamt of this happening.

The moment that Nightmare, Killer are handed over the legal documents, they don't waste a moment, they grab Ccino and jump straight into their car. Then they drive straight to Las Vegas to elope not stopping to change or pack any clothes or anything, because they don't want to wait a second longer.

Of course Ccino gets super flustered at their suggestion to elope.

Ccino "get m-married right now!? But don't you want to wait? And have some big celebrity wedding? You mentioned it before"

Nightmare "nope"

Killer "we've been engaged for over 4 years, we want to put a ring on it right now!"

Nightmare "we don't need a big wedding, or all that stuff. We just need you to say I do"

Nightmare and Killer "so... Will you?"

Ccino "......"

Ccino "YES!"

(though maybe they stopped to pick up dream on the way. Nightmare probably knows that Dream would kill him if he missed his wedding.)

So the 3 were married in a small Chapel. Nothing fancy, but for them it was perfect. They all agreed that they would probably host a proper reception and ceremony for their friends and family to attend later. But for now, they didn't need that, they just needed to be married. It was a very small simple thing.

They probably stayed in a Vegas hotel that night. Probably had some time to celebrate. I just imagine Killer waking the two of them up the next morning with breakfast he'd ordered like:

"Good morning Husbands"

And he just can't keep the smile off his face.

About a year later they have a more formal ceremony. Which of course is super fun. But for them it doesn't change that fact that their actual wedding was truly perfect.

And dam I just love those 3. Jan was the one who wanted me to share this with you guys and I really hope you like it as much as me.

Dam it Dream XD

BTW, I know this most likely isn't fully realistic to what the legal system is like, but give me a break. I’m not a lawyer, I’m a shipper. Its fiction, just let me have it.

I don’t really get the people who sees White Cloud Rhea’s interest in Byleth as creepy? Like she’s framed as suspicious in a lot of other ways, but her interest in Byleth always made perfect sense to me:

We arrive at the Church and immediately find out that we have a birth secret and there’s this older woman who has some kind of *history* with our father... She’s also very interested in and favours us, to a degree that is remarked upon as unusual by several characters close to her. Already from this the signs are pretty clear.

And then our hair suddenly looks even more similar, and we learn that Rhea *knew* our mother and she clearly mattered a lot to her. Like the entire story is just screaming that Rhea is our maternal relative. After the lap/song scene I was 99,9% convinced that Rhea was Byleth’s aunt xD (and I was pretty ride or die for her at that point just based on that idea because ohana means family and family means no one gets left behind. Imagine my despair when I realised that the church route was inaccessible from AM 😭)

Like of all the characters, Rhea being like “you’re absolutely amazing and the best person ever 😍” was the least forced. She was just biased towards this kid she had been grieving for years but that had now miraculously returned to her. The kid of another dead relative she was grieving. I suppose this might also be why I was never bothered by the “sweet child” thing, because Rhea came across as trying to awkwardly speed run 20 years of a family relationship while having no idea how to explain that, so she’s just gonna dump all the faith and trust she can on you. So we have “professor” as an expression of her faith in our abilities and a bit more formal address, and “sweet child” when she’s talking to you as her younger relative. Like it was weird, but in a “older relative that’s never quite taken in that you are over 20 now and might still try to give you money for ice cream” way rather than creepy.

“rhea came across as trying to awkwardly speed run 20 years of a family relationship while having no idea how to explain that, so she’s just gonna dump all the faith and trust she can on you” is exactly how i would describe it lol

poor rhea is so excited to see her granddaughter/mother/future wife that her brain short circuits and she doesn’t know how to act so her behavior comes off as very odd at times lmao goddamn this family tree is a nightmare

And now Ladies, Gentlemen and everyone of all ages...may we present to you for this one night and probably other nights only since it’s highly encouraged to have this reblogged....Mary Grayson Headcanons Part 3!!! 

As per usual, please give this posts a like, a reply and especially reblogs if you like. Any of those is highly appreciated 

And now, on with the show XD 

- Very little things can make Mary nauseous. If for instance, she watches a horror or war film with heavy amounts of the usual graphic content as per something R rated, she usually brushes it off of it being merely make up and special effects. What does makes her queezy though would be the smells of spoiled milk and sewer leaks. 

- While John is the more verbal of the two when warding off troublemakers and con men and just use his acrobatic skills in fisticuffs if need, Mary is surprisingly the more skilled of the brawler of the two if it comes down to it. While neither of them are formally trained in self defense and martial arts, Mary has attended plenty of carnival wrestling matches and talk with a good bunch of said wrestlers to learn a move or few, As such she can pull off Edge Hand chops (a la Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels, https://youtu.be/b-TV6rjiG6w), Dropkicks, Sleeper holds, and even a Jumping Tombstone Piledriver (4:12 - 4:16, https://youtu.be/AsdG0HyLHP0) 

- Usually Mary doesn’t do cosplay during Halloween nights if the Flying Graysons aren’t performing that night. Often the issue being she has in mind what she wants to dress up as but nearly at the last minute before getting the costume, there’s another option to distract her to the point she gives up on that. 

- Whenever all the Graysons have a practice day thus they get up extra early or a day off so they can sleep in, no matter what Mary usually finds herself the last one to awake. Usually if she sleeps long enough, especially on days off, John and/or Dick are the ones to wake her up. 

- Her favorites novels include but aren’t limited to Oliver Twist, Frankenstein, Jane Eyre and Animal Farm. As for one certain book though...

- Regarding Hunchback of Notre Dame, Mary actually believes that for all its faults, the Disney version of the film might be better than original Victor Hugo novel. Largely this is due to the portrayal of Romani in said film in comparison to the book; needless to say while a certain word they characters in the film use to describe Romani unfortunately is frequently said, at least the film treats her people with a healthy enough level of respect whereas the book outright  gave them a very bad name even though it was not the intention of said book in the long run. 

- Speaking of Disney, when Dick was born, the Graysons were given the three films: the aforementioned Hunchback of Notre Dame but also Dumbo and Peter Pan. For all the faults every film has, nonetheless, they are more or less essentials for movie nights in The Grayson household ever since. 

- Perhaps Mary’s greatest feat on the trapeze was a solo act for one night only at Buenos Aires, Argentina when her son was 5 years old. Long story short, both John and Dick caught a bad flu and in spite of ‘show must go on’ mentality they had to sit out on it. Worse, earlier than week while trying to do aid the roustabouts to set up tent, Mary sprained her right ankle and her left kneecap, making bending them not impossible but highly uncomfortable. To top that, it was that year’s Black Pin, meaning no holding back, go all out with the stunts and no safety nets. Needless to say, the stakes were pretty high for all involved yet Mary still volunteered to go that night while John and Dick watch from the audience. To say she put on a great show would be a massive understatement. The crowd’s deafening applause throughout the act only intensified once Mary finished it and the spotlight showed her getting hugs and kisses from her family. 

- During her first years on learning the art of the flying trapeze with her then group the Soaring Lloyds, Mary made a friend in the most unconventional sense, a small bird. In particular, it was an Indian Blue Robin who set up its nest on top of her family’s trailer and traveled along with them wherever they went until the time came for it to migrate. She often gave the robin any snacks and nuts she can and often had small conversations with the robin whenever she was lonely. To this day, Mary never forgot about her little robin friend so it made all too much sense for her son’s nickname being ‘Little Robin’. 

- While her heart and soul was with John ever since they first met, the closest Mary Lloyd felt to true love prior to that was one temporary roustabout who apparently was honing the skills of such a job while traveling around the globe. That man was billionaire Bruce Wayne. 

- She rarely gets nightmares but whenever she does, Mary is a mess of sweat, relentless tossing, turning, sobbing, and just even some yelling in her sleep. John, in spite of himself not wanting to, sleeps through it, leaving Dick being the one to wake her up carefully, hug her tightly to calm her and the one in fetching cookies with milk and a bedtime story they can read together to get the both of them comfortable enough to go back to sleep. It gets better when John does wake up himself in the middle of it and joins in to help.

do u have any random facts or things about Depth of heaven and ur characters (sfw or nsfw 🤭) even if what you want never comes to light, I really enjoy reading the concepts and asks about ur OCs

Hehehe I haven't thought about the characters and their story in a long time, until recently...but I never put a huge amount of thought into them before either! I kinda just knew I...wished I could make something cool that had everything I wanted in that kind of game lmao. Even if it doesn't happen, I felt like I wanted there to be twists and secrets...if it never happens then nobody but me will ever know about them, huh! But, if it does happen then I'll spoil stuff for later! What to do...ah I'll share about it! But I'm giving it a spoiler warning for something that doesn't exist anyway lmao Also I'm not a writer or a scientist this is all wacky world rules ok xd also there might be inconsistencies idk I never wrote anything down I'll tell u their heights! June: 5'4 Puzzle: 6'3 Koa: 5'6 Adam: 6'1 Keizo: 6'7 Lloyd: 5'11 Static: 6' Cyril: 5'9 Holly: 5'7

In high school June and Puzzle were da weeaboos who listened to vocaloid on their phones at lunch. Puzzle wore cat ears, big headphones, and tutus to school. I think....I decided that because of her old bad design lmao. I thought I had a drawing of her in cat ears but I can't find it 😔 June prolly just wore hoodies and graphic t-shirts. They were each others prom dates! June wore a tux! Okay spoilery stuff ahead!

I have a general idea what I want the story to be, but right now I just see it as disjointed scenes in my head. I posted some June and Puzzle wearing dresses where I wanted a scene to happen in a casino on the ship. Cruise ship casinos are kinda lame though lol, but it'll be as big and cool as I want >:•3 and it's an excuse to have everyone in cool formal wear cuz that's always fun! The cult leader calls for a big party on the ship and everyone has to attend! It's also where he culls the herd...because not everyone is worthy of going to heaven...apparently Koa likes playing video games! He's on the top of the leaderboard for one MMO, and during one event the top prize was blueprints for an in-game item: roller skates! It would make for cool merch to put on your wall or something. There was a rumor among the playerbase that the blueprints could make skates that function as they do in the game. Koa won the prints then used them to custom build his own skates (they look kinda generic now but I haven't put a lot of thought into their design lmao). The combination of materials used and construction give them a magical quality that allows him to skate faster than any human could! He's always pushing his limits, and sometimes it gets him in twubble xd Keizo has an issue with bad dreams...at night he replays all the times in his life where people were rude to him or each other, how he needs to keep peace between them, he just really hates assholes! He has nightmares about them treating him badly and there's nothing he can do, because at his height and with his strength he'd come off as the bad guy no matter what! They push and push 'til he's about to snap...then he wakes up! The rage super heats his blood and his skin glows red and steam pours out his ears! His hair is all wacky cuz it holds it's shape on the pillow from all the heat lmao June and the rest of them find out about it when they see steam coming out from under his door at night. Don't wake him up though! If he's still glowing hot he'll sleep walk while in a berserk state. First, it makes him really rude himself lmao. He'll say all the nasty things he won't when he's awake! Second, if he sees someone doin' shit he don't like, they're gettin' these 🤜🤛 In his happy ending you'd see him with his hair flat for the first time wouldn't that be nice :•3 Adam is always doing experiments on himself, kinda just for shits, kinda because he wants to discover something amazing....!.....?!?!??! When he was younger, his sister, who he loved v much, died. He wanted to become a doctor, not because he wanted to find a cure for the thing that killed his sister...because she died in an accident! He wanted to find a way to make people invincible! He's always injecting himself with stuff hoping it'll make him stronger. He likes Keizo as a friend, but to Adam Keizo is a perfect specimen of an indestructable human. Adam's been fascinated with him for a while, but Keizo also just makes for a good subject for testing against! Also, they met when Adam was studying abroad and Keizo came up on a motorbike and attacked the wheels on Adam's scooter. Cute! :•) Keizo used to be a bad boy :•( Other experiments Adam's done: Eyesight like a HAWK Cat ears but for real Jelly bones(?) Longer ween 😳 Lloyd is a stinky tech wiz who likes playing around with AI's and robotics! He has myassive myega brains and he monitors many of the functions of the ship by himself in his server room. When the captain is captured and thrown off the ship, Lloyd uses his know-how and special accesses to make sure the cult doesn't make a mess of everything. He knows about and can see everything that happens on the ship...for fun he likes video games toooo! And plays with Koa! He likes buildin' lil gadgets n tings for fun too! They can come in real handy! nsfw! Stuff past here!!!!!!!!! June, Koa, and Lloyd are all inexperienced!

As a lover, Keizo tries to be gentle...but once he gets into it he can be a bit rough! If you're into it, just enjoy! Or speak up and he'll slow down! Hmmm I was inspired by a scene from the film Crying Freeman (which I haven't actually watched 8•|) of some ppl doin' it in a closet(?)...it's all dark and cramped and humid and their skin is so shiny and glistening it's probably the thing that awoken me to drawing people super sweaty. I just can't help myself 😳 def wanna give Keizo a scene like that. This doodle was inspired by it actually lmao

Adam is patient and gentle! Lots of kisses and verbal reassurance and checking in w/ u. He's aware of his age and he doesn't wanna come off badly so he'll let you do all the pursuing. And June will pursue him hard if she has to! He's also gonna make you beg and ask, just so he's sure sure :•) He loves to sit her up on the examining table n do things wit his mouf n fingers 😳 I'd probably make it an option to call him daddy in certain scenarios...up to u if u choose it find out what happens for urself idk 😳😳😳 or don't

Koa likes to tease you, maybe bully you a lil, but when it comes to intimacy he's a wimp! I just like the idea of making the bully bend to your will, but he likes it. It just feels good to wipe that cocky smile off his face! Step on him! Make him whimper! I know June's a virg too, but Koa is just so easy to tease it makes it feel like second nature. BUT the more time they spend together, the more confident Koa becomes. So! Enjoy havin' him under your thumb while you can cuz it might not last forever! Lloyd tries to stay composed when June starts showing an interest. He's usually alone in his server room, but secretly appreciates her company when she comes by. At first he'll act like he's too busy. He's not used to being around women! As his interest in June grows it becomes harder to hide his feelings! So June notices...and teases him! Cuz it's just so easyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyYYYYYYY 😩 Seeing his serious expression crack when you put ur hands in his pants is lots of fun :•3 And he shows you a voice he's never shown anyone else before 🤤 He does his research and with your help he'll learn exactly how to worship u 😌 IF it ever happens there has to b a new game plus where u unlock threesome scenes with Koa/Lloyd and Adam/Keizo :•x That's all 4 now! Sorry I'm fuckin' gross and don't know how to type :•|
