Neverafter Episode 5 Rambles

Spoilers Ahead, naturally!

Okay, so the red beads, right? I feel like Brennan’s REALLY prepared to give these out willy nilly at this point, given how often the Intrepid heroes seem to be making saves to get them/avoid getting them.  So, given what we just had in ACOFAF with the artefacts (the feather, the mask, the hart thing etc) I feel like these have gotta be something to the effect of what they did in ACOFAF. I’ve got a couple theories. 

1) it’s a larger Level of Exhaustion style mechanic that works across all the versions of their story, where they’re taking on effects that start as just minor inconveniences (in a way we don’t yet understand or notice) but will impact them more as they accumulate, eventually hitting a maximum if they continue to do so. Naturally, this could have grave consequences such as perma-death, being forgotten in every realm, being unable to go to the Happily Ever After etc.  2) Conversely, the beads corrupt them so much from their happier versions that while they might become more powerful and stronger temporarily, they eventually become unrecognisable and are unable to resolve their stories as the people they were. Maybe they become villains or something.  Anyways, the beads are stressing me out and I’m so mad we don’t know exactly what they do yet.  Now, Scheherazade, Aesop - names of actual storytellers we’ve gotten thus far. I assume the Brothers Grimm will make an appearance in some capacity, since they’re some of the other most recognisable storyteller type figures (that most people would recognise by name). And given that Brennan has included Scheherazade, I wonder if we’ll be hearing about writers of folktales and nursery rhymes from other non-European cultures as well? Elody being an observable figure in Scheherazade’s realm is also very interesting, as that seems to suggest she is much like Snow and Cinderella who appear to have awoken and since have gained free reign of the story realms. Once again, through not entirely her or Gerard’s fault, this awareness of all the version’s in which Elody loves him a lot less could likely be what’s contributing to the re-froggening.  Putting Cinderella’s glass slipper shard into the book seemed to be interesting as well, I wonder if the blank pages thing was her resisting even the Happily Ever After version of her story and that she’s still traversing the different versions of the Neverafter freely. Conversely, what could be the consequences of her being unable to escape Mother Goose’s book if that were the case? What would that mean for Snow White, or for Rosamund, or the other numbers of princesses? Would that be helping or hindering whatever the fuck is going on with the Stepmother???

I am still bamboozled by the amount of factions in this and the sheer amount of all of the different agendas. The Storytellers, the Princesses, the Witches, the Fairies, the Stepmother/Evil fairy, the Tricksters, the Big Bad Wolf, everyone else who just exists, plus the Golden Goose and the Gander.  I still don’t know what the Stepmother/the Big Bad Wolf’s respective agendas are. I am a little bit intimidated by them ngl :)) I am super jazzed (and not) about the next episode, because spiders. Hopefully gonna be okay with that one lol.  Silly bonus:  was an absolute pleasure to get even a glimpse of Senator the Ram again. best character so far /j

Is it normal to go shower and stay muted on a call instead of ending it and telling the other person you got things to do? And they wont end the call because they are just as clingy as the other person and wont tell them their busy so that the other person doesn't end the call

oh yeah, you know how it is when you can't end the call w/ your friend even to take a shower, just in case he gets on a call with somebody else while you're showering! that'd be bad! better just mute real quick.

and you know how it is when your friend mutes during your call for like a rly long time, but instead of ending it and doing something else, you choose to just wait and then complain about it as brattily as possible ("did you forget about me?!") when he unmutes, just to hear his groveling excuses.

you know it right

Episode 1 - “Let’s hope I’m not getting voted out” - Czern

Honestly I’m just sitting here so hyped that Austin is on my tribe . I know I can actually trust this man which is good . I’m hoping I can vibe with people on my tribe so I don’t end up an early boot . For some reason I think I may actually have a shot this season we shall see ! I’m gonna start reaching out to people and hopefully I give off good vibes !

I guess I'll just give my first impressions of everyone on this tribe including those who I know from the other tribe. Jay - Long ago we played a game together, but I can't really remember his style. I don't think our "pre-existing relationship" will help in any way Czern - A king who I hosted. He's not much on the social side of things so I can see that as an easy boot, but he could be someone that I can make trust me very easily Alex - He's fine I guess Mac - He's a threat. He got POTs and 6th? He needs to go soon. I'll try to get on his good side so he won't see a blindside coming though. II'm keeping my eye on him Ben - Who? He seems like a dudebro and I don't get along with those people. We shall see Dylan - My hosting buddy!! We'll see if they are playing INV or a complete rat. I know they're a flipper so I can't put all of my faith in them Paolo - Someone I know in real life who I brought into the community? Wild. He's a chaotic player for sure. And I am a chaotic player. Maybe we'll vibe together. Maybe not. Hopefully our chaoses come together rather than oppose one another. Zach - Maybe so At the end of the day, without a challenge, I'm just trying to be social and make myself liked by the tribe. It seems to be working so far, but who knows when being liked will turn into being a threat. I think, right now, I don't see myself working with any of these people long term except for Mac. But, as I said, he's a threat, but I could use him as a shield. For now, just focus on being liked and do well in the challenges! (Also this all-male tribe is actually disgusting and I want off of it immediately)

Ok so not even 24 hours after the game starts and my ass is already in a three person alliance with keegan and gizmo and I feel kinda solid about it i don't think it's going to go south hopefully

Hello everyone, my name is Mac, and I’m here to outwit, outlast and outplay this cast. On the other tribe I have someone who is new to the ORG community that I know well. Like, REALLY WELL. The stunning Liam. Liam and I, if we both get to the merge undetected we could slay this entire game. Now. The Osbourne tribe. I am friends with Alex. Lovely person. Do I trust Alex? Not really. No. Alex made a F3 alliance with Alex, Ben and I and I don't wanna be  thrown into a F3 with two friends, and I only know one of them. I kinda know Jay, but not enough to consider him a friend. Czern and Raffy are super quiet. I’ve heard Raffy plays like a crackhead which is fun, I’d rather have Raffy as an ally, or drop him early, who knows we’ll see. Love this game and ily all xoxo <3

So the first challenge is counting. I’m aight at math and I think I can count to 10 so I got this in the bag. I can’t exactly strategise except for social game at this point SOOOO I’ve decided to work my social game ELSEWHERE. I’ve decided to advertise for my Tengaged Group Game (with my Tengaged soulmate Liam) by sending the VL messages to go apply! I’ve also made a forms “application” to apply to be in the HOST CHAT!! How exciting! I got 20+ apps within two days (one person was like 10 of them but shhh). I’m very pumped for this game, Lowkey my tribe I feel is easiest to...manoeuvre. I wouldn’t say manipulate. Manoeuvre. I wanna try get to know them on a more personal level before anything. But honestly I learned my lesson in my past Survivor org to never stay to one ship. If it looks like it’s sinking, JUMP YOU SILLY GOOSE!

Im very worried about something...there may be no Music Video challenge! Don’t get me wrong I’m a shy bitch, but like, it’s very fun to lipsync and perform 💅 but I won’t be able to play any *good* music like Ariana, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa or Britney with all these straights. Ugh. Bummed out buttttt I’m sure I’ll survive. *insert a spooky witch gif to keep to the theme teehee* *takes a sip of an energy drink in the confessional chair* Actually you know what? Here is the songs I’d wanna perform to if we did get a Music Video challenge that are witch themed or witch vibes: “Rhiannon” by Fleetwood Mac “A Little Wicked” by Valerie Broussard “Seven Devils” by Florence & The Machine “House Of The Rising Sun” by Lauren O’Connell “Wicked Ones” by Dorothy That’s my rant. Love you all 🧙‍♀️

This tribe doesn't seem very social which works perfectly for me. This means that being the most social one will benefit me in the early game. For this challenge, I know not to fuck up and I know the strategy, but I fear that these newbies won't which will be a drag. Hopefully we can pull out an immunity win so that I can further situate myself as a pillar to this tribe

My tribe lost. I was mostly quiet in the challenge because I don’t wanna stick out like a sore thumb. I kinda know Jay, and I’m in a trio with Alex and Ben so we should be good. I wouldn’t mind if Czern or Raffy left ngl. If I leave first ill...riot.

So. I feel like I’m in a decent position. Talking to Alex he and Ben apparently wouldn’t mind Czern leaving. That’s great news as I’ve talked to him the least. Alex and Ben are a duo with me as their third. Taking to Jay, he wants me and Raffy around. Am I...going to potentially be in 2 trio alliances? That’s so GOOD! I wanna talk to Ben more and Raffy more. Make it look like I’m down with either trio. If Czern leaves and a F3 is made with myself, Jay and Raffy, then boom I’m the one in power!

I mean making sure your the vote is important. But to use connections to set you up well in the tribe, honey that’s a 4D chess move! It’s spooky szn and this first tribal may show a division if it’s not unanimous. If I make moves without people realising then that’s hot.

So we lost the challenge. Honestly, I feel fine because I have been social and it seems like people like me. I feel Ben should go because I've barely talked to him and he basically ruined the challenge by always wanting to do evens and didn't just quit it when it wasn't working. I personally blame him for the loss because he just didn't take a breath and leave things be. Plus, I don't think anyone has been talking as much with him or Alex. However, I'm just going to keep my opinions to myself and let the target fall on them as it will.

Last night was the immunity challenge and it went really well for us! We didnt even mess up and very quickly took to the tactic that is easiest to win. Everybody speaks in order! We were talking after and were actually worried that with the time being shorter, other teams would talk quicker than we did and beat us. However, when the scores came out it was 182, 46, and 15. I'm really proud of our tribe and us reaching near 200! Though I am sure this is one of the few challenges where us having fewer people is helpful. Hopefully our entire tribe can make it next challenge!

The names going around the tribe are Czern and Ben. I've talked only to Alex and Jay so far. Alex says that Ben said Czern's name. I don't want Czern to go because I feel like I can make him trust me very easily. Jay prefers Ben to go because he doesn't want to vote for Czern two times in a row. Also, Jay told me that he and Mac want to start a potential alliance with me. This means my social abilities are working!! This alliance will make me feel very secure for the rest of pre-merge as it's a strong three that easily claims the majority in this tribe. Hopefully, this is the first alliance in my tribe and I'm not playing into someone's hands, but I doubt that would happen. Score one for Raffy

Howdy y’all! Uhhh I don’t have much to say. Not much has happened yet and everyone’s pretty quiet. I stan the idol hunt? Simple and easy to navigate, but also very creative. We are immune after the first challenge! n e ways...uh...acab

I’m nervous that we lost the first challenge. I have yet to ever survive a tribal council, so I’m trying not to go. Let’s hope I’m not getting voted out

As tribal approaches, I am getting more nervous. There's barely been any chats, but that may be do to these people being slightly antisocial. Or it has something to do with this being an easy vote? I don't know. I am just getting a sinking feeling in my gut. But it also doesn't make any sense to get rid of me since all I've done is be social. Hopefully, everyone is telling the truth and I can just worry about the next immunity challenge.

Apparently Mac and Alex know Ben personally, so they want to get rid of Czern because they don't know him and that's a bunch of bullshit and is not fair to Czern. Ben has been so inactive and he didn't pull his weight in the challenge. We're going to lose again if he stays! But I'm not one to rock the boat. I feel bad for Czern, but I'm not risking my position in a cozy new alliance for him. Though I am more aware than ever of Mac and his threat status. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. He's going down and I'm going to be the one to do it eventually. In any case, I'm glad to finally be in an alliance that seems strong and trusting. It is with me, Jay, and Mac called Jam Rocks. We'll see how the chips fall.

[paisley-print]

Thank you for the tag!! @oo-hazel-oo !!!

Alright - I’m in a silly goose mood so here goes nothing.

1. Why did you choose your url?

It’s my name and print - like writing. BUT ALSO since Paisley is an art print style. Its kinda like a pun :) .....Okay I know I’m not a comedian but I thought it was funny

2. Any side blogs?

Nope

3. How long have you been on Tumblr?

Not with this blog- but I have been on a LONG time. Probably started my first blog in 2010. I know I was WAY too young. Especially the way the sight used to be porn porn everywhere so much surprise dick. It was honestly the wild west.  Since then I have had a few role play / fan fiction blogs. 

4. Do you have a queue tag?

#queue ....but most everything post is in the queue anyway. Even this probably...how meta. 

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

I started it to read fan fan fiction ....I never really intended on having this become a fan fiction blog. But here we are I guess. Ironically enough the story I first started on here is yet to be finished. RIP. Imma finish Imma finish - I promise!!!

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

I look a lot like Brooke Shields so I use her as a FC a lot.  Then I  just set her to a background of paisley print.

OH cuz I took super long to photo shop it and I thought it looked pretty. I might make a new one soon though.

Chapter one of Near The Water’s Edge....but the post with the most feedback has been the prologue of Midnight

14. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

Ohmygod No.....but the darker my stories get, the more likely I feel its going to happen. Like, writers in this fandom get so much hate, I am worried that I’ll be next. It has even made me hesitate posting some darker themed stories.....but you know what. Bitch imma still do it. I’m a retired mean girl with way too much time on my hands square up.  I was voted into prom court three times lets go.  I’M A LEO DROP A MEAN ANON SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

NOBODY and I MEAN NOBODY is allowed to be mean to my friends on my watch.

 -.- nobody. 

15. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts?

Umm  it depends what it is.  Normally I will reblog something that I agree with regardless of if it reads “you need to reblog this” or not. Most of the time ignore it.

I DO! This is my first one and I am having a blast!

17. Do you like ask games?

I’m not sure what that is! But you know what! Probably!

19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?

If we are mutuals - I have a creative crush on you.....but mostly I have a crush on @oo-hazel-oo     cuz not to brag or anything but were basically best friends on here.  And her writing is *Italian hand*
