How interesting that THIS is the difference that Kohane sees - that she thinks that they’re different at all in that area. She thinks that Watanuki contrasts to her because he’s surrounded by people now - not realising that she’s surrounded by the exact same people, who are also invested in helping her. I expect she sees herself as even more isolated with her mother being such a hole in her life for so long, and it might take a while to realise just how much these other people can be relied on even without giving anything in exchange.
Doumeki even reaches out to pat her in response - though I’m not sure if his statement is that “we” are here for Kohane as well, saying what I was saying above - or that “we” are both also here for Watanuki, effectively putting himself and Kohane together in the same group, as the “we”, and saying that they’re supporting Watanuki just like everyone else.
I think the next page only makes sense if it’s the latter.
In which Kohane gently removes Doumeki’s hand and says that she can’t exorcise anymore.
So I think her explanation was more about being useful - she wants to support Watanuki the same way everyone else does, but (like in her conversation with the old psychic) she can’t really fathom being useful to anyone without her powers. She still has quite a bit of healing to go before she might be comfortable realising that she has worth all on her own, so right now Doumeki’s insistent that THEY (as a group) are useful doesn’t reach her the same way, since she can no longer do what he does.
It’s a bit of a shame that that thread is left dangling while she changes course, but still, there’s lots of time for her.
Meanwhile SHE KNOWS ABOUT EGG-CHAN.
EGG-CHAN EGG-CHAN
AHHHH THE SILENT PROMISE AND DETERMINATION
DOUMEKI STILL VIVIDLY REMEMBERS HIS EGG MISSION
They’re bringing this RIGHT to the forefront of the narrative now, the central scene at the end of this chapter.
DOES THIS MEAN IT’S COMING? ARE THEY HIGHLIGHTING THE EGG AS A CLEAR SIGNPOST THAT THEY WANT YOU TO REMEMBER IT IN THE NEAR FUTURE?
IS IT ALMOST EGG TIME?!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

so, STILL not really au related, but uh
anyone want me to explain my (Slight Rewrite) headcanons for Blackjack?
long story short, he may or may not be an eldritch-cryptid dog type thing that is uh. Ten Times As Horrifying! still Jack's soul, but with some...interesting ideas for what else he could be.
most customers at Freddy's and Fredbear's straight up believe, due to the many...tragedies that take place, that Blackjack is Death Itself.
fun fact: Henry views Blackjack as being The Consequences Of His Actions in physical form. not in a guilt or remorse way, though; he views that as being Literally what Blackjack is.

pixlgirl has been posting generated AI (targeting fandoms) without disclosing it, passing it off as their genuine art and has apparently scammed at least one person into ‘commissioning’ them. this is a public PSA so yall can block them, and not interact. please do not harass them!
it’s incredibly shitty to be disingenuous while posting AI but even shittier to scam people with it 🤢 stay diligent yall

forest legend au
Sun and Moon are both funny little creatures that live in a marshy forest. Sun is a Will-O-Wisp and Moon is (of course) mothman kinda thing.
also a kid gives them salt and they rob hikers of all glowy things
They befriend a kid (her name is Nell and I just made her up 3 days ago but I love her) who thinks they're cool and gives them salt and stuff (hush the salt is important I promise) and lives on the edge of their forest with her dad (Cason) who's a biologist and Does Not Believe in those legends thank you very much
(cue Nell stealing salt for Sun and Cason's just like: what do you need that much salt for? Nell: *continues shoveling salt in a bag* reasons Cason: o kay don't take all of it??? *finds the salt container empty later* )
anyways they're both just mischeivious little guys who trick people who come into the forest and mess with them (and steal all their shiny/glowy stuff because Moon likes it and why not) but they both love kids and actually help them instead of scaring them
Why salt? you ask
well if you add certain minerals/chemicals to fire, it will make it burn different colors, and because will-o-wisps are basically fireballs here, they feed on different minerals to sustain them
and the mineral differs depending on their color, for example, Sun, as a yellow will-o-wisp consumes salt (specifically NaCl aka table salt aka halite)

too many of you guys think nico is the loser and not lewis for letting the divorce go on for so long. like they're both losers about each other. emotionally constipated idiots who can't talk about their toxic homoerotic friendship that imploded on itself like 8 years ago and are now making it everyone else's problem. yeah nico's on television or in beer gardens talking about lewis all the time but like every other month some reporter is like "lewis, what's your favorite moment in your career?" and lewis no hesitation is like "oh man, karting, y'know? everything was simpler then" and then spends another six months skirting around nico's name. like this whole thing they're doing in the media isn't some kinda extended foreplay for them. they're both still pressing on the bruise to make sure it's still there!!! every few months, they're literally just asking on public television, does it still hurt for you like it does for me? and like clockwork, someone will release new information about them or one of them will say something about each other (in my heart, he's still my best friend/yes... and teammate) and the answer will remain the same, yes, of course, always.
