Can I get dating headcanons for Kaiji, Lovecraft, and Poe with an an outgoing and humorous female s/o? Like she’s the type to joke around and goof off constantly and seems to get along with most people?
(a/n):uwaaa hello anon!!🥰an interesting request! working on new characters always gives me a ton of excitement; but i also get really nervous at the same time😳but thank you for sending this in and i’m sorry this took so long!! 🥺❤
masterlist.
--------------------------------
an outgoing and humorous fem! s/o
pairings: kajii x reader, lovecraft x reader, poe x reader
warnings : none!
kajii.
Tumblr media
✦ enthusiasm !! 25/8 !! i kid you not; he is definitely one who would lovE to be energetic and lively to his s/o. so please please crack your jokes with him.
✦ he would die laughing, sometimes it might result in rolling on the floor.
✦ since you’re pretty outgoing; i can also see that you would easily grow to his liking towards science! so cue the endless discussions of how science is truly an interesting phenomenon of some sorts - look, he would go on and on and would also make sure you understand every. single. word of it.
✦ he would voluntarily tell you to crack one of your best jokes, or when you’re at it, you would do it instead. it’s just this pride he has when he realizes how wonderful of a prankster you are. we all know his traits; basically a loud, bubbly and crazy scientists who also has an interest in lemons. so there! go ahead and have fun with the port mafia members; aka his friends/allies. 
✦ some of them might not get it(just maybe), but do not ever doubt that kajii is going to be completely blur with it. he just falls in love even MORE.
✦ your charisma and energy is sort of how he got attracted towards you with a burning passion. the smile, the triumph you gave off whenever you walked. how easily you get to mingle around with anyone. the way you asked him more of his weird experiments.
✦ mans just loves you a lot, okay? he would die for you, even. anyone dares to rip the smile off your face; please run. he already has thousands of lemon bombs waiting for the fated person.
lovecraft.
Tumblr media
✦ i love how i can immediately see how utterly confused he would be when he first sees you. yes i know how there are definitely more expressions he could give out (besides sulking on how he wants a good rest) but hey, just look at you.
✦ oh oh and he might even see this bright glow emitting around you. how do i put this.... he might as well think that you are the sun itself, and he is the moon. how you’re glowing and how he is dim. it’s like active and passive energies combining into one.
✦ he gets even more confused when you actually strike up a conversation with him. not because you’re someone he has no idea about, but to think that you’re willing to hold it up for so long, especially with what he thinks of himself as boring and is just tired for like the whole day.
✦notices how you like to make fun of the other guild/port mafia members. 
✦ his heart does these weird jumps. of course he has always wished to joke around but you’re there for him so🥰
✦ you cannot tell me he just goes completely frozen ( being completely flustered) when you start complimenting his ability mid-battle or after a battle. if it’s mid-battle it would just give him this huge ego and strengthen it. if it’s after a battle he would look away, like, immediately. no thoughts. head so empty it’s been swept clean.
✦ he does not mind that you’re outgoing at all! he’s just so envious on how you’re able to gain so much energy. and i bet you, he accepts that so, so much. all he has and still has is confusion. regardless, he’s going to love you the way you are. you are the reason why he actually wants to have a stroll with you, to talk about the things he likes, why he gained his true happiness.
poe.
Tumblr media
(goddamn i actually love him so much)
✦ fluster duster! (idk i just came up with that hehe🤣) we all know him as one to be really shy and all. well imagine if you enter his life.
✦ it’s literally going to be the darkest chocolate sprinkled with white chocolate flakes but make the flakes ten times more than he has ever imagined.
✦ he likes how you don’t exactly push him into wanting to see his works. it’s like a sign for him! take your time, i can wait for as long as i want to read it someday, that’s what he understood from your words. and well, sooner or later you say this phrase anyway - that’s sort of how i can see a beautiful relationship blossoming.
✦ he enjoys your company a lot; you’re there for him in case he’s in need of relieving stress from thinking of a way to work out perfect plots. you two have lots of fun with karl too! it’s like soft hours for him hehe🥰
✦ some of the jokes you make? he writes them down, waits until he finds a perfect page to write it in his latest work, and when he does he immediately jots it down and never regrets it after. your humor is perfection to him, he enjoys how they’re new every single day.
✦ oh oh roast anyone you know to him. he. loves. that. i’m thinking how he would purposefully write a roast for chuuya so that when he gets trapped in the book, he could hear it and then chuuya just starts attacking them all KSKSKSKS
✦ i can say his self-esteem and confidence builds more too! he would have more confidence in writing, in himself, and also his whole life in general. simple to say; you are capable of changing these guys’ lives. <33
--------------------------------
(a/n): aaaand here we go, anon!❤❤❤ i apologize if this took really long; i needed to make sure i got the right character traits and all for these three! i think it may be a little ooc, but i really do hope you enjoy them! sorry if it’s short too hhh🥺

Questione...
Tumblr media
Possibly just shouting out into the void, but wondering if anyone has some information on a game...
The game pieces are hexagons with two differently colored sides, and three numbers in sections on them. It’s a two player game (each player being one color), and the point is to try to put down your piece in a place that will flip as much of the board as possible to your color, based on what number is largest on the sides that are touching each other. Your goal is to have the majority of the board in your color at the end of the game (when all pieces are used up). You can also see the pieces your partner has, so part of the strategy is also predicting their moves/ basing yours on what they have to put down (like which side of the hexagon their largest numbers are on, etc.).... An example move looks like this image below (with Purple vs. Blue being the colors) 
Tumblr media
I was introduced to this playing a game on kongregate, called The End (link here even though the game itself  doesn’t seem to work anymore and the official site for the game doesn’t either so idk), BUT this is not the main point of the game, it was just a mini-game inside the main game. I liked the mini-game so much I made my own version with pieces of cardboard, to have one I could play with others not solely within the kongregate game, but the nature of the game just seems like...something that there’d be a version of somewhere else?
I’ve tried googling like ‘hexagon numbers game’ ‘number tile flip game’, etc. and looked up the company that made the game as well, but as far as I’ve seen they don’t list much about it (this is just one tiny mini game within a tiny game out of many others I think are more popular) or etc., though there are some images of game development that make it seem like they created the concept themselves, they could have been inspired by something. Either way, this just seems like too enjoyable and cool of a game to be lost forever as merely a tiny mini-game hidden within a long abandoned flash game!!
---- So, my main question: Is anyone aware of anything similar to this?? Is this an actual game somewhere, that could be purchased as a boardgame or something?? If the game creators took inspiration from somewhere, is there a known game it’s based off of? OR, even if it is wholly their creation, is there at least anything else out there that operates very similarly?
Additional info (images and the videos I could find of gameplay) under the read more for extra details on how it works..
----------------------
Here’s a screencap of the actual game from some youtube video i found
Tumblr media
And see there’s also some powers you can use to make the game more interesting, like for example a ‘+2′ power would allow you to add 2 points to one single side of your hexagon- so if you had a 6, you could make it an 8 and maybe then overcome your opponent’s 7 on that side, etc. (though you’re limited in how many you can use, obviously. The strategy is also picking the right ones). There are many of these, and I unfortunately don’t remember what they all are, so I can’t incorporate them into my handmade cardboard version T u T ;; , but they also added a neat twist !
Tumblr media
Here’s a video I found of like, actual official gameplay, it’s from the people who made the game so it shows in good detail how the game actually works: 
https://vimeo.com/23525726
and then here’s there website or like, something where they wrote stuff about the game - 
https://preloaded.com/work/channel-4-education-end/
'The End’ was primarily like, just a usual jumpy puzzle platformer sort of game, the ‘death cards’ section was only a side-thing you did at the end of levels, if I remember correctly. Though for me I basically ONLY played the main game to earn additional powers (like the +2 bonus) for the side game, and pretty much spent all my time playing that instead gghg 
But like.. LOOK at the gameplay!!... it’s just.. fun..I like the little strategies of going into corners or playing in a way where you try to trap pieces of your own color in places they can’t be turned or accessed by the opponent, and like how you can look at their numbers and predict their moves or etc. Idk it’s like one of those things where it still requires you to pay some amount of attention to what you’re doing, however it’s still casual and easy enough that you rarely have to sit down and intensely focus so it can kind of fill this tiny “Vaguely Occasionally Challenging But Primarily Just Relaxed And Fun” niche where it’s so enjoyable to just hang out and mindlessly play 10 rounds or so every once and a while when you have 30 minutes to waste or whatever.. 
So like idk,, I hope it’s an actual thing somewhere else???
Whenever I google anything like ‘hexagon number game’ or even specific stuff like ‘flip tile two player hexagon boardgame’ or ‘different color shape flip number game’  or ‘tile number game’, ‘ tile number game flip tile’ etc. It’s only ever stuff like this (or math learning games, or some weird rummy game)  that comes up - 
Tumblr media
which from what I’ve seen, is not really the sort of thing that I’m looking for at all. I want something where you compare multiple numbers of one tile based on it’s placement on the board, flip tiles or something similar in order to win, basically the same mechanics/premise as ‘death cards’ etc. 
It could very likely be that the people who made The End just made this from scratch with no inspiration and there’s like...not anything even remotely similar around, which would be unfortunate (since I’ll just have to stick to my cardboard version then lmao) , but I thought I could check with the masses first perhaps, since looking on my own for a little while I couldn’t find much. 
Admittedly, I only looked for like 45 minutes or so but idk, usually if you can’t even find a hint of what you’re looking for after searching google for even 20 minutes then you’re either using wildly incorrect search terms (which maybe people could give me leads on better terms to search instead) or the thing you’re looking for is pretty obscure (in which case maybe someone out there still knows about it) so, idk. 
 I would just feel really bad for a premise that is really cool to die as only ever having been a mini game in some random browser game about philosophy or whatever. I would think maybe at some point the game-creators would release it on it’s own as a separate thing or something, but the game has been inactive for a while and whatever’s going on with it, I don’t think anyone seems to care that much, or is really rallying to bring it back or anything. 
But anyway,  I would just like to play this game in a more official way, somehow, if it actually exists somewhere?
Particularly due to the issue of game balance. In my handmade versions (since first drafting this post, I now have like 3 of them, experimenting with different tile shapes and amounts of tiles lol,, lov to become preoccupied with random concepts and spend hours making tiles out of cardboard), there’s really no way to completely ensure that there isn’t an element of luck involved. 
Part of the reason I like some strategy games is that they can feel more like each person is starting out on a level playing field, and it’s all about just utilizing tools the right way, or what you can think about and come up with. You ‘’win’’ more by skill than just random chance. But with this being a numbers based game, inevitably, to some degree, a player with higher numbered pieces is more likely to win, which when the pieces are drawn randomly, is hard to control for.
In my cardboard versions, I handled this by making different colored marks on the center of the pieces, green for very good, purple for in the middle, and I think red for pieces that have mostly low numbers (which is based on what all the numbers add up to, like if all three numbers on a tile are over 22 (meaning there must at least be some 10s/9s/8s), they’re green, if they’re from 21 - 10 they’re purple, under 10 they’re red, etc. etc. Something like that, I don’t remember the exact numbers I used). Then each player gets a set amount of greens, reds, and purples, so each person will have an equal amount of good/bad/etc. pieces. But even this, I don’t feel is precise enough and am still concerned about it influencing the game results. 
For the digital version, I’d guess there’s probably some sort of algorithm or something that like.. generates the numbers of the pieces in a way where each players pieces add up to a certain number, or something like that, so that one player can’t end up with ALL 10s (highest number in the game) on all sides of their hexagons,  and the other has none. Obviously there will always be SOME element of chance, but I don’t know if it’s COMPLETELY randomized, as they must have done something to make it more even, I would imagine???
So, this is a main reason I’d like a more official version, if I could like.. buy a board-game that’s already been balanced for me, or play an online version of basically the same game etc. etc. 
(Though if any of the 3 of you who have actually read this far have any advice on how to better balance my cardboard versions, please let me know! There may be a better solution than color coding into categories lol)
(ALSO it may be hard to imagine or boring looking if you’ve just watched videos of it and have never played but, hHH, trust me that it’s really cool! It’s one of my favorite games but, obviously it being relatively obscure and the main game it was attached to being now nonexistent, nobody is ever excited about the concept as much as I am lol... just try.. to imagine... ) 
ANYWAY!!!!... I just... really like this game for some reason and in my quest to find an actual version of it or something, now amplified by the fact that the actual game seems to not work anymore, I thought.. berhaps... other people in the general public would have suggestions or know of similar games (like with flipping tiles based on number calculation)???? sir, may I have some flipping hexagons based on number comparisons? please sir, some coloured hexagons flipped based on numbers?? sOME NUMBERED HEXAGON TILES ON A BOARdggh hvhjflkfnkelnhekltnhlnklkl kh iohnkl k;m klm klm

There was a slight warmth upon your shoulder, before the gentle squeeze of his hand made you smile. "I am proud of you Darling," Ignis' voice was soft in your ear. "You have studied hard. I know you shall do well." It was then you felt another bit of warmth slide down the back of your arm, till Gladio's large hand gently grasped your own. "He's right babe, You've got this!" and the pair gently bent down to your level, to each press a kiss to your cheek. "Good Luck Babe!" "Best of Luck Darling."

So regardless of how I did in the exam, acknowledging I studied hard is so important and it means a galaxy to me.

my thoughts on the batman and harley quinn movie
so i’ve just finished watching the latest dc animated movie, batman and harley quinn, and you’ve probably already heard it’s a pretty polarising movie. when it was over i didn’t really know how to feel. overall i’d say it wasn’t great and from a critical perspective it was absolutely awful, but personally i still enjoyed certain aspects... i made some notes???
the good
the animated series art style looked really nice here, especially since high definition has made it look a lot more refined and smooth (the coloring for harley’s shiny lipstick was one small thing that i thought looked super duper cool)
kevin conroy is, as always, a fantastic batman, and i also quite liked the new voice actress for ivy, paget brewster
the few jokes which are actually funny are REALLY funny- in particular, i loved the booster gold phone call scene and harley’s breakdown over the ‘veggie apocalypse’
harley’s characterisation is pretty decent, and i appreciated that she got to stand up for herself and show that she can be smart and strategic whilst also being ridiculous most of the time... she gets to complain about how she’s been treated before too and how oversexualised she often is, which is a nice touch, although it doesn’t really make sense in the context of this particular film where she’s oversexualised anyway
there are some nice character building moments for harley, like when she discusses how difficult it’s been for her to reform and ‘go straight’ because nobody actually wants to help her be better. i loved that the film took into consideration what life would actually be like if harley really did try to turn her life around.
the opening credits are absolutely ADORABLE and god i love them so much... they’re the best part of the entire film which is unfortunate but like they’re so good!!!
plenty of easter eggs pop up throughout the film, mostly related to the animated dc universe, which is cool for dedicated fans to see!
harley goes through a few awesome costume changes, including a new 52-style dress, a really cute coat with her hair in bunches, and the classic jester costume which looks great (except the collar looks a little off sometimes)- i was so happy to see the blonde pigtails back because they are SO GOOD
there’s no explicit mention of harlivy here (of course) but there’s also no joker whatsoever, except for one brilliant passing line where harley mentions the “only good thing I ever got from that asshat” was joker venom. also the ending features a very sweet reconciliation between harley and ivy that i thought was wonderful!
the bad
melissa rauch is... a truly awful harley quinn... she doesn’t make the role FUN. she says everything in a snarky, oversaturated, whiney brooklyn accent and she’s missing that sing-songy sound that makes harley HARLEY, so we’re left with a character who’s supposed to be the life of the party that instead just sounds permanently pissed
the animation looks BAD. characters don’t blink, and they usually don’t move unless they’re talking either, plus background characters are almost always motionless- when characters are moving, it looks stiff and awkward, and a lot worse than even the 90s show this film is paying tribute to, which is a real shame
as for the storyline, the btas episode ‘harlequinade’ did it so much better, and this is essentially a very drawn-out version of that plot line, replacing the villain of joker with poison ivy instead
there are a lot of issues with the tone of the movie- it jumps around from stupid, flamboyant comedy, to serious and mature, to choppy action movie. it doesn’t sit well in any genre or with any audience. i think dc tried to please every type of batman/harley fan here and it results in a serious mishmash that i don’t think really pleases anybody.
the film is super short, clocking in at barely seventy minutes, and yet it’s still jam packed with filler content. i recall one bizarrely long segment where random people off the street were asked of harley’s whereabouts, all giving fairly generic replies and all saying “no”, and this scene went for at least an entire minute
most of the humour is frankly unfunny. i’m jotting down the worst line in the whole movie as the line “it’s not bad... smells like discipline”, spoken by batman when harley farts. it’s childish humour which doesn’t even make sense- an extended scene where harley farts! that’s the entire joke! it’s stupid and pathetic, and it makes it even more polarising when one minute the humour is bathroom jokes for toddlers, then the next it’s crass comedy about how nightwing got a boner. yep, that’s another joke that actually happens.
nightwing and harley sleep together and it’s not exactly non-consensual, but it also didn’t come off as a very positive thing ever because nightwing kind of agreed but not really and it just wasn’t great and also it’s just classic bruce timm again feeling the need to make random characters from your childhood have sex so he can get himself off i guess
even though harley gets to talk about how guys are always taking advantage of her body, which is cool, this movie pulls out all the stops on oversexualising her anyway! think many, MANY shots of her ass, plenty of focus on the fact she does in fact have boobs, and of course bruce timm’s insistence that she randomly straddle nightwing so they can have sex
swamp thing appears at the end and i felt like i was missing a big joke the entire time. was this a reference to something? was it some kind of humour i didn’t understand? honestly, i just think it was supposed to be funny that he appeared out of the blue, but it wasn’t?
the strange and uncertain
harley sings ‘hanging on the telephone’ by blondie? for no apparent reason? it’s clearly filler, and it sounds fucking awful (thanks melissa rauch), but somehow i still thought it was kinda cool even though it felt extremely out of place and really served... no purpose whatsoever
actually most of the bar scene is really weird, harley gets her random musical number but so do some other c-grade villains from other dc shows you’ll spot if you’re a huge fan of the animated universe, it’s filler again but i think people will appreciate the little easter eggs in what is mostly an okay, fun scene
harley works at ‘superbabes’, which is pretty much the dc universe equivalent of hooters but instead the waitresses all dress up skimpily like female superheroes... at first i thought that was just more bruce timm bullshit but when they delved into WHY harley couldn’t get a decent job, i appreciated this scene a lot more
i don’t know how to feel about ivy’s overall characterisation in this because she was very restricted by jason woodrue, and she also had SERIOUS punch up with her GIRLFRIEND hhh... but the fight was justified i guess and the resolution is really nice... i’m very torn over ivy’s portrayal really and i think it’s something everyone will react to differently (she did use a lot of language i don’t think pam would use e/g i can’t imagine her saying ‘crap’ and ‘we’re screwed’ but she does anyway... not sure why but it just really doesn’t sound right for her?)
loren lester is supposed to be the Iconic nightwing but he sounds stupid in comparison to melissa rauch as harley, especially since his voice takes you back to the 90s and most of this film is fairly rooted in the now. i love that this movie is such a throwback to btas but in this case, i’m not sure loren lester was the best fit
the ending is extremely abrupt and mostly played for laughs, which a lot of people don’t like, but i actually didn’t mind it? i thought it was really funny and cute and a pretty fair resolution to the problem (basically harley just suggests they take the easy way out and set the Floronic Man on fire, because hey, he’s made out of leaves right?) the aftercredits scene was the bigger problem imo because it had no connection to anything in the film, wasn’t all that funny and didn’t seem to have any purpose (although i could say that about most of this movie tbh)
ultimately for some reason i still enjoyed this movie, and i’d probably watch it again, but it had a lot of issues and i wish it could have been the movie harley deserves. also i never want to hear melissa rauch as harley again. if you’re a big harley fan, i’d recommend giving this a watch, because there are some cool moments, but otherwise, give it a miss.
