True Froot Flies know that when Strange Froots members pair up, they get a pair name… this was partially inspired by Steven Universe. Now I'm finally putting it on paper…(Sept 22 2015)

Click through for captions on each of them! The 3 of us related to each Crystal gem in a way and our fusions ended up matching the one in the show in some kind of way. I was the Garnet of the group, Naika was Amethyst, and Sage was our Pearl. So of course we ended up being our own versions of Sugilite, Sardonyx and Opal. As I’m writing this I realize how real this was not just cause of our individual personalities, but our Sugilite oftened overpowered Sage, our Sardonyx sometimes made Naika feel bad about herself, and I always had to reign in a forgetful Opal.

anyways lol sage is not a froot anymore but here is that lore

Timothy Drake-Wayne, or “Business Tim” as Bart has dubbed him, is a force to be reckoned with. It’s not an iteration of Tim that any of their vigilante social circle is privy to terribly often, and part of that is intentional - he’s downright unnerving, not because he’s ruthlessly efficient (Tim always is), or because he’s basically a genius (ditto), but because he’s so- normal. So polished.

(Red) Robin’s merciless professionalism in the costume has always come with a hearty side helping of downright strangeness that had made his otherwise terrifying competency a little bit easier to tolerate. While it hadn’t watered him down any, it had at least added a layer of humanity to the whole child prodigy schtick - like, Kon and the rest of them could content themselves with the knowledge that, sure, Rob was already solving crime at the level of the literal Batman, but he also ate his Froot Loops with fucking orange juice, and had once watched an eight hour video essay on a German vampire show he’d never even seen before in one sitting and come out the other side temporarily unable to form complete sentences in English. It was all about balance.

Business Tim, on the other hand, is smart, hardworking, punctual, and impressively, horrifically bland. Business Tim greets coworkers with the sort of vacuously polite smile that belongs in a toothpaste commercial; Business Tim’s hobbies are reading books on empathic leadership and watching Jeopardy; Business Tim claims to have left his skateboarding days behind him, and instead drives an Audi A4 in Cobra Beige to work every day, and never, ever speeds. It’s like he’s managed to couple the unassuming harmlessness of Brucie Wayne with Tim’s own brand of “absolutely needing to be the best at everything he does, ever” and create the perfect storm of corporate soullessness.

”Hi,” a voice says, much closer than he expects. Davey turns to find a woman at his elbow—pretty, with long, tawny hair and big brown eyes—and her smile is sweet and a little shy. “I’m Julia.”

”Uh, hi,” Davey replies, a little confused.

His first thought is that she needs help flagging down the bartender; Davey’s tall and the place is packed, so it’s a reasonable assumption.

Instead, she says, “I don’t usually do this, but, I thought, maybe— And, my friends said I should just be brave and go for it, so, uh, would you be interested in maybe going out sometime? With me?”

”Oh, uh,” Davey rubs a hand over the back of his neck, a little thrown. He scrambles for a good way to turn her down without being mean. “I’m actually not—“

”Dave, did you want any food or just the drink?” Tony asks, tugging at his shirt sleeve to get his attention.

Davey latches onto him like a lifeline.

”I’m here with my boyfriend, Tony,” he lies, throwing an arm around Tony’s shoulders and pulling him in close.

Tony, because he’s the absolute best and Davey’s new favorite person, doesn’t even miss a beat.

“Oh, hey,” he says, curling into Davey’s side. “Sorry, this one’s taken, but believe me, I understand the appeal.”

”Oh my god,” Julia says, looking mortified. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t realize—“

”No biggie,” Tony says easily. “It happens.”

He turns back to Davey, lifts up on his toes, and presses a chaste kiss to his lips. “Come on, babe,” he says, with a ridiculous eyebrow wriggle. “Help me carry our drinks.”

Julia excuses herself with another flustered apology—Davey almost feels bad, but mostly he’s relieved at how relatively painless the whole exchange was.

“I owe you one,” Davey murmurs to Tony as they escape, heading to their table.

Tony snorts. “Oh, trust me, I’m about to get it back, with interest, in sheer entertainment value.”

“What do you mean?” Davey asks.

“Judging by the look on his face, Jack definitely saw what just went down,” Tony says, oddly vindictive. “And he ate the last of my fucking Froot Loops yesterday, so he deserves what’s coming to him.”

“What’s coming to him?” Davey questions, a little too drunk to follow this new thread of the conversation.

“Don’t worry about it,” Tony says, patting his shoulder. “Here, sit.”

He pushes Davey into the open seat next to Jack—who's watching them with a strange expression, tension pulling at the corners of his mouth.

That tension only grows more pronounced as Tony plops himself into Davey’s lap and makes himself nice and comfortable. Davey just wraps his arms around Tony’s waist, resigned to this becoming A Whole Thing.

”Everyone here owes me money,” Tony announces gleefully to the table at large. “He didn’t even make it five minutes.”

There’s a collective groan.

“Who was it this time?” Specs asks, digging into his pockets for his wallet.

”Girl at the bar,” Tony says, nodding in the right direction. “The one in the green dress.”

The whole group turns to look as one, not even trying to be discreet. Davey resists the urge to sigh.

“She actually seemed normal,” Tony continues, with audible disbelief. Davey wishes he could take offense but, unfortunately, it’s well-warranted. “Cute, too. I wouldn’t’ve chased her off if Dave hadn’t signaled.”

”And where did kissing him factor int’a the equation?” Jack asks, crossing his arms over his chest as he leans back in his chair.

“You kissed Davey?” Albert asks loudly, looking intrigued. He turns to Davey and continues, “You let him kiss you? Don’t’cha know where his mouth has been?”

“Fuck off, Albie, I’m fresh as a fucking daisy—“

“No one should be kissin’ Davey,” Jack insists with a scowl.

“Dave didn’t mind,” Tony says with a smirk. He’s clearly enjoying this way too much. “And anyway, we had’ta sell it.”

“Oh, I bet you fucking did,” Jack mutters under his breath.

“How come Racer gets to mack on Davey?” Albert complains, which tracks—tequila always makes him pouty. “It’s my birthday! If anyone gets to kiss Davey, it should be me.”

“Pretty sure that’s not how that works,” Romeo tells Albert as Jack sputters soundlessly.

“Sure, it does,” Al insists. “Hey, Dave, can I kiss you?”

“No one is kissing Davey!” Jack says. He kind of looks like he’s got a swarm of bees in his mouth, his cheeks flushed and puffed out, his jaw working furiously.

“Uh, not with that fuckin’ attitude,” Albert scoffs, extremely unimpressed. “How ‘bout it, Dave?”

Davey blinks. “Um…”

“No one else is kissing Davey,” Jack orders.

Have u ever seen the froot loop flavored pop tarts? they are probably not the level of monstrosity that is exhibited by the other food crimes on this blog, but we saw them at our campus store and decided to try them. The filling tastes like pure, concentrated froot loop(tm) flavor mixed with lemon-scented floor cleaner. Strangely enough, my school counselor liked them, however he is a statistical outlier and should not be counted.

seen them? I've eaten them!

they horrify me on an existential level! back when they were for sale, I consumed two boxes entirely by myself!

I don't ever want to eat them again.

#asks #uncorkedhead #food crimes #pop tarts #they really did taste like incredibly sickly sweet froot loops #in a bad way #and yet #there was something interesting about them #they had pictures printed on them #and that made me like them more I think

Froot Basket: Dark Chocolate (Visual Novel)

Created by: xxmissarichanxx

Genre: Horror

I actually was waiting for this one to come out when I heard it was first announced and I'm really happy I did because this game is fantastic. It's a lot less comedic than the original game, Froot Basket Valentine, and it gives much more context to Momotaru, the yandere in question. For this game you actually play as him, attempting to summon a demon. This is one of the few games where I still didn't get all of the achievements for, so hopefully I didn't miss anything too major that might change what happens. The main one I'm missing is the basketball achievement because that minigame is way too hard to beat. If you'd like more information on the Froot Basket games please look at @xxmissarichanxx for more.

The game summary for this might be a little strange since the game runs in a time loop with the dialogue changing slightly when replayed. I'll note the differences after I go with the normal route as well as what happens in the endings (or at least I'll try because I can't seem to get the full ending for it). There are a lot of other small things I'll try to explain as well, since it depends on where you go during each day.

The story starts out initially with Momotaru waking up to find Jordan worried about him. Apparently, the two had just performed a ceremony with a demon, though it doesn't seem to have worked. Momotaru ends up passing out due to a nosebleed and ends up in the infirmary after, where he hears Spine and Dr. Ringo chatting with each other. Dr. Ringo tries to get him to go home since he's not in such good shape, but Momotaru decides to head to the basketball game anyways. Momotaru goes to watch Jordan as now they are a candidate for the next captain of the basketball team and admires them from . Momotaru ends up joining the team, though fails to stay as he ends up nearly passing out again, forcing Coach Paer to kick him out. Jordan comforts Momotaru afterwards, melting his heart. Momotaru then laments about how he's an outcast, and he shows how jealous he is towards Sutoro, someone that Jordan has a crush on. During lunch he learns about how Spine and Dr. Ringo are dating. Dr. Ringo informs Momo to go home, but Momo refuses as he wants to spend more time with Jordan. As he hears whispers in his head, he searches for either Jordan or Spine. Fighting with Spine reveals that the two are brawling to help Jordan with basketball, while finding Jordan instead makes him find Sutoro, who tells him to stay away from Jordan as he's done pretty terrible things to others in the past. Either way, Jordan ends up handing the demon book that started the mess to Momo. Momo ends up going to the bathroom where they did the ritual to find out what's going on, only to find that the demon the two summoned has attached himself to Momo. Momo asks the demon to make Jordan love him and only him in exchange for getting bits of hair, spit, sweat and other things for the demon. Reading the book shows that having the love potion to work requires them to be fed it slowly. The rest of the game requires the player to get these pieces from the people around them, at least until Halloween where the ritual is performed. Failing it will cause Momo to continually repeat the same cycle over and over again.

There are a couple of differences in the second time around, where Momo remembers the days events and tries to bypass them, as well as moments where the demon attempts to take control of Momo. He also realizes that the pieces he's gathering from others are to make the Demon a body. When done correctly and with all of the parts, Momo will continually feed Jordan the love potion so that they forget all those around them. This leads to the events of the last game, as well as the true ending where Momo is found unmoving on the floor. If the player does not get everything in time, the spell doesn't work and Jordan will still befriend the others like in the original game. Unfortunately I couldn't get the last ending where the demon takes over (or maybe I did, but that was a long while ago), so hopefully there wasn't anything too big on that ending.

We learn the general reason to why Jordan like Sutoro so much- mostly that he's very cool and popular, the type that speaks directly and intentionally. As a result, Momo becomes extremely jealous over him, attempting to be popular as well to gain Jordan's attention and supposedly also tripping him down the stairs in the past, which leads to Sutoro being very wary and disliking Momo.

I gotta say first of all that this game is very well made and an excellent prequel sequel to Froot Basket Valentine. While I loved the tone and the absurdity of the original game, one of the things I wasn't too found of was the fact that we didn't know that much about the relationship between Momotaru and Jordan, since the two seemed to be very close and that he was a yandere for them. Luckily, this entire game does show how Momotaru feels towards Jordan and why, along with why the events of the first game happened in the first place. I also think it's nice that we are able to see more of the relationships between all of the characters, thus learning more abou them. The art style, while different from the first game really does set the tone of it, favoring a more comic book style rather than a more painterly/goofy look to it, which I really do like. The various events that can happen as well make it very good for replayability, especially since you can get different types of parts from different characters depending on what is chosen.

Momotaru as a yandere is very cynical, not caring or disliking most of the other characters besides Jordan since he sees them as their one true love. Unlike in Valentine, we do see that Momotaru sees himself as more of a loser rather than the more popular chick magnet that he was in that game. He looks down on other and himself and just hates it when anyone gets near them, even though most of the other characters, with the exception of Paer and Suturo, seem to be rather friendly with him. With Suturo its a rival situation where he does attempt to get rid of him (and fails) as well as try to become more like him so that Jordan will like him thorough popularity and trying to be good at basketball (because as it turns out Momotaru is actually pretty weak physically), though it ironically doesn't really matter as much considering that Suturo ends up rejecting Jordan in Valentine, as he has no romantic interest in them. He's specifically very spiteful towards him for this reason, so anything that ends with him hurting Suturo probably makes him happy. So it does make sense that he wants Jordan to like him and makes a deal with the demon, considering that Jordan is A. kind of oblivious and B. already very clearly likes Sutoro. When it comes to Jordan though, Momotaru is very lovestruck over them, even offering to help them do a demonic ritual to (apparently) help make their friend's life better, and in a lot of cases even just outright confesses to liking them or wanting to be with them. In some cases it does seem like he worships them to a certain degree, trying to find them always, remembering everything that they told him and just seeing all of the good sides of them. That being said, he is willing to use more underhanded tactics of being with them, specifically the love potion that's created at the ending when the ritual is completed on Halloween, so that they would forget everyone except him. I'll be honest Momotaru and Spine were actually pretty big inspirations for Iya and Emil in terms of personality and appearance (to a certain degree) so I'm always happy to see them in the game.

That being said, I think the biggest qualm I have about the game is that it's very hard to get all of the endings, even with a tutorial. Normally, it's not too difficult for me to complete most of a game, especially for visual novels, but there's a lot of finicky things going on with Froot Basket that make it difficult. It's generally very hard to remember how to get everyone on the hitlist and harder to time it correctly to get everything you need, especially without the tutorial. Even with the tutorial, I was only able to get two of the three endings (for some reason the Consume ending is evading me, though I'm pretty sure I've successfully did all of the clicking minigames right and followed the walkthrough). For me, the basketball minigame is pretty hard as well since it's a lot based on chances and Suturo is leagues better at the game than Momotaro is (or at least the game is more biased towards letting Suturo win) so I had to give up on that one. That being said, I am very grateful for the tutorial because it did allow me to make sure I could get two of the endings, but it's still pretty difficult for me to get everything that I need to make a full analysis of the game (though I guess missing one ending probably won't kill me).

Overall, an extremely well made game. If you liked Froot Basket Valentine and want more from the characters, please give it a try. There's a lot of things you can learn about everyone and the story is very intriguing seeing it from the yandere's point of view. I highly recommend it.

hi froot! I just want to say I’m fascinated by you you’re amazing ! Wanted to ask if it’s alright how you approach your stories ? How do you lay it all down or how do you meet it in the middle? Have a nice day!

Hi Nahla!! You're amazing too !! I like being fascinating, I feel like a strange bug under a microscope

I wish I could explain it better, but honestly? A lot of the stuff I come up with is just from daydreaming or pieces of stuff I've found interesting in other pieces of media that I decided to yoink. It's what I've done for a lot of my stories, OCs or otherwise. How I usually do it is think VERY HARD about the parts that interest me the most, and then if I make it a full-fledged thing then I force myself to plan out all of the boring bits (but usually it doesn't reach that stage)

In the context of this blog, it's a little easier, since I can piggyback off of canon storylines within DC. Most of the ideas for here come from a desire to explore stuff the COWARDS at DC won't. I'll use a story I've been cooking up as a (vague) example

There's a character I think could be more of a threat than they usually are? Easy, I'll make them a threat to Gotham. Oh, I need characters that get rid of that threat? Okay, I'll throw this guy in - oh, and I can make it homoerotic too? Hell yeah baby. Then it just snowballs from that one silly idea into an actual story plot and I become at it's mercy

Unfortunately that's all I got though </3. I wish I had an actually cool process but alas I'm at the whim of what my ADHD brain spawns

#i fear this barely answers your question nahla i did my best </3 #if im being honest I dont even remember how i think up most of my stories #<- adhd plague again

I don't listen to much of her songs, I do really like Venus Fly Trap by her, it was so creative and unique.

I'd like any recommendations if you got some!

I’ll go album by album & say the must listens, and the extra credit (according to my own opinion! extra credit probably means it’s either my personal fav/or not as commercially successful):

The Family Jewels (her debut):

Must listen: Are You Satisfied?, I Am Not A Robot, Mowgli’s Road (the first song I ever heard by her), Obsessions, Hollywood, Hermit the Frog, Oh No!

Extra credit: Guilty, Numb, Rootless, The Outsider, Shampain, The Family Jewels (title track that wasn’t released with the album but can be found on youtube/most streaming platforms), acoustic versions of all songs found on youtube - (Girls is my least fav personally)

Electra Heart (a concept album so there’s a TON there - I recommend first listening by watching the respective music videos for each one!! out of all the eras I feel the EH music videos are the most important visually to see for the concept of the album):

Must listen: really the whole album, but… Bubblegum Bitch, Primadonna, Homewrecker, How to Be a Heartbreaker, Teen Idle, Buy The Stars (best slow one)

Extra credit: Fear and Loathing (6 minute album version), Radioactive, Valley of the Dolls, Sex Yeah, Power & Control, The State of Dreaming, Starring Role, Lies, Lonely Hearts Club, Electra Heart (title track released toward the end of the era), all the acoustic versions from this era on youtube, Su-Barbie-A and The Archetypes (2 music videos/snippets on youtube), - (Hypocrates is my least fav on the album but still good)

Froot (full of bops):

Must listen: Froot, Happy, Blue, Solitaire, Savages, Immortal

Extra credit: the rest of the album so- I’m a Ruin, Forget, Gold, Can’t Pin Me Down (my fav), Better Than That - Weeds is my personal least favorite on the album

Love + Fear (love it but my least fav album)

Must listen: Handmade Heaven, Orange Trees, True, To Be Human, End of the Earth, Karma, Emotional Machine, No More Suckers, Soft to be Strong, Believe in Love

Extra credit: The rest of the album is so much weaker in comparison in my opinion. I still listen to the songs if I’m in the mood for it (Enjoy Your Life, Life is Strange, You, Too Afraid) but there are a couple songs I seriously dislike and always skip (Baby, Superstar - sorry to the stans of those songs, don’t hate me) also there are a ton of way better unreleased ones from this era on youtube, tbh

Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land (her most recent as of right now, and such a good one)

Must listen: Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land, Venus Fly Trap (you mentioned you know it, and this is probably my personal favorite!), Man’s World, Purge the Poison (my other fav), Highly Emotional People, New America

Extra credit (they are all just as good but these ones make me a lil sad bc they remind me of a bad time in my life ngl lol): Pandora’s Box, I love you but I love me more, Flowers, Goodbye, and then there’s the bonus tracks that were released later = Happy Loner, Pink Convertible, Free Woman

Andddd she probably has another album coming soon 💓

Let me know if any of you agree/disagree with my takes 🤭
