SPLASH

Matt Sturniolo x y/n (fem)

warnings: SMUT nsfw 18+(um lang, y/n receiving, unprotected, cream pie —assume ur on bc—-semi public/sneaky, nothing too crazy)

authors note: AW ITS KINDA CUTE GUYS. here’s the other matty poo idea i had since y’all seem to eat him up always hehe.

summary: you join some of your friends on a trip to get over a breakup and end up having a heart to heart talk during a late night swim with matt….but talkings not all you end up doing…

word count: 3,431w

—————————————————————————

“hey y/n get your suit on! we’re gonna swim!” nick said, peering in through your half opened door.

“mkay” you nodded back, forcing a smile. it’d been a split second decision to force yourself to join your friends on this trip. Nick had suggested you come to try and get your mind off of things. you and your boyfriend had broken up only 2 weeks ago, after you found him cheating on you. it’d been a long time coming and had almost never been a good relationship, but a breakup is a breakup and you were still reeling from it. you pulled out a stringy bikini, then threw an oversized t shirt on top. the house you were staying at was large and out in the middle of nowhere. the pool was a significant distance behind the house which gave it a cool secluded feel during the day, but at night the walk alone was a little eerie. you fears washed away though as you got close enough to see your friends splashing around and their laughter became audible, only lit by the purple pools lights. it brought a smile to your face and you felt genuinely happy for the first time in a while. you and your friends hung around together for a couple hours, getting late into the night when chris decided he was hungry and needed a snack. the nearest convenience store was about 20 minutes away and would be closing soon so chris and the 3 of others decided to do a junk food run, leaving just you and matt. matt had been your friend since 7th grade, but the two of you hadn’t gotten to hang out as much in the last year cause he made your ex so nervous. he was always convinced you had feelings for matt. at one point he might’ve not been wrong, but you’d never tell a soul that.

“ok last chance guys! you want anything?” nick shouted as the others ran back towards the house.

“skittles!” said matt

“oo can you get me some twizzlers?”

“yup!” nick said running off

“think he listened?” matt said wading through the water to the edge where you were sitting, dangling your feet in.

“oh definitely not” you laughed

“you should come in the water! it’s really warm”

“but then when i get back out i’ll be cold” the outside air had dropped enough to feel the slightest of chill of fall.

“so? you can borrow my sweater if you want” said matt sweetly, always a gentleman

“come on! have some fun!” he teased splashing only enough to spray a few droplets on your thighs. you could never say no to him. you stood up and pulled your tshirt over your head. matt looked up at you, his mouth slightly ajar, before he quickly glanced away. you figured he’d zoned out. you cannonballed in, intentionally hitting matt with a wave of water.

“asshole” he laughed, splashing you as you came back up for air. you grinned at him and shook the wet hair out of your eyes and paddled to sit on the pools steps. matt joined and sat next to you. he leaned his arms against the the pools edge, the water only coming up to his mid stomach. you stole a glance at his toned torso and arms, tattoos glistening from the water. his eyes darted back to yours and he gave you a half smile.

“hey, you been okay? i didn’t wanna pry, but i head about the breakup” he said with concern

“oh…yeah. i’m okay i guess” you sighed

“he’s a real dick, y/n. i mean really. such an asshole. i wanted to kill him” you snorted

“you and me both” matt was on a roll in his rant and barely seemed to notice your comment

“i mean he has some fucking nerve treating you like that. you deserve like the best of the best and the fact that he didn’t didn’t see that—“

“aww matt” a warm fuzzy feeling spread over your skin at his words. he snapped back into remembering your presence and gave you a bashful look.

“i just think you deserve someone who treats you right. so good riddance to him” he said, splashing at an invisible presence off in the distance, trying to play cool. it was an adorably dorky move.

“thank you, matty” you said softly. he paused, and looked you intensely in the eyes.

“yeah always” he breathed out. the tension hung thickly in the night air. you turned your face away from his, hoping it would dissipate.

“and not that it matters, but i remember back in middle school when everyone was playing truth or dare, all the girls made fun of him for being a bad kisser” matt said, attempting to lighten the mood. it worked and you let out a laugh.

“yeah trust me, kissing wasn’t the only thing he was bad at”

“oooooo really” matt said grimacing. you nodded and dramatically shivered at the thought.

“yeah, honestly, don’t think there was a single time i wasn’t on top doing all the work. he’d sorta just lie there…like a corpse. and y’know…second he was done that was that. maybe 2 minutes each time.” matt’s jaw dropped

“whaaaat” you laughed as you glanced at your hands under the water, feeling nervous about talking about this with matt.

“that’s crazy. half the fun of sex watching the other person enjoy it” you felt your face flush as you raised your eyebrows at him

“what?” he chuckled back at your surprise

“nothing, i’ve just never heard you talk like that before” matt rolled his eyes playfully

“yeah well much to your surprise i have had sex before, y/n”

“well i know that…”

“just didn’t think i’d be good at it” he cut you off, teasingly. your face turned from flush to beat red, making you thankful for the dim lighting.

“hey, i wouldn’t be one to judge” you shrugged out, suddenly feeling painfully aware of your lack in experience.

“what do you mean?” matt questioned

“just…he was the only person i ever…y’know” you sheepishly avoided the words.

“had sex with?” matt filled in for you. you nodded and scrunched your face. he studied you for a minute.

“so you’ve never had good sex?” he asked, quietly. you felt so exposed you might as well have been naked.

“‘guess not” you mumbled avoiding is unwavering gaze.

“have to wait around for the next boy” you snickered to yourself

“isn’t that a bit of a gamble?”

“well what are my other options i mean youre the only guy i know who probably any good at sex—“ matt’s eyes widened. you slapped your hand over your mouth, panic beginning to settle in.

“oh my god—sorry—i—that came out wrong—i didn’t mean like you and me—like you need to show me—shit” matt just continued to look at you, his eyes burning holes into your skull. you buried your face in your pruning hands.

“well, why not” matt rasped out. you peaked through your fingers at him, his expression looked blank, but his chest rose rapidly, nervously. you dropped you hands.

“what” you almost whispered. he took a steadying breath.

“i said why not.” you tried to breath, but no air seemed to be available.

“what do you mean” matt gnawed at his lip before speaking again.

“i mean that you deserve to only feel amazing and i don’t want you to go around experimenting with more assholes and—“

“matt, i’m not gonna let you have pity sex with me” you scoffed out, embarrassment itching your whole body.

“that’s not what i meant y/n” he said in a hushed voice. you continued to babble over him.

“i mean i know you’re the nicest guy ever, but come on even you have to know you don’t have to fuck me to protect me from other bad guys—“

“i dont want you to fuck other guys at all” he sounded exasperated. you gave him a lost look. he exhaled, looking up at the sky for invisible answers.

“you don’t?” he looked back into your eyes, you felt like your heart could melt.

“of course not, y/n” your heart raced.

“okay” he furrowed his brow

“okay what?”

“okay yeah— i mean let’s—“ you inhaled, pulling yourself together and met his gazed

“i want you to show me” his chest rattled again.

“yeah?” he breathed out. you nodded, rapidly. he moved closer to you, your faces now inches apart. his eyes darted down to your lips. he smiled, and looked back up into yours, as one hand gently wrapped around your waist.

“okay” he rasped out as he brushed his nose against yours. he seemed to revel in the tension between you, before bringing his soft warm lips against yours. the kiss was passionate, but still delicate. it sent electricity through your chest and down to your fingertips. he brought his other hand up to your check and jaw, molding your faces together even more. matt pulledl his lips away from yours momentarily to whisper out

“you can touch me, y/n” you only then realized your arms had been cluelessly frozen by your sides. you eagerly brought them up around matt’s neck, immediately changing the tone of the kissing to something much more heated. he let out a sharp breath into your mouth before moving to come between your legs, both hands now grasping your waist. he pulled you closer and you wrapped your legs around his body, gripping into his hair. he let out a small groan against your lips and squeezed at your flesh in his hands. you sighed out at the feeling, opening your mouth against his which he took as an opportunity to slip his tongue against yours. your mouths locked together perfectly, as your hands begin to move from his hair to explore his chest, your fingertips roaming the skin of his body you’d only ever dreamed of getting to touch. you lowered your nails to just beneath his bellybutton, which elicited a genuine moan from him. you smiled against his mouth

“where did you learn that” he grumbled

“i have have a couple tricks” you said coly

“oh yeah?” he said between soft quick kisses

“so do i” he bit down lightly on your bottom lip, pulling with his teeth as he brought your hips up against his. you whined feeling him press against your bikini bottoms. he chuckled at your pathetic reaction and pushed your hair back from your neck. he lowered his lips down to the sensitive newly exposed skin and began to sloppily kiss a trail from your jaw to your collarbone, then began sucking and biting at your flesh.

“fuck” you moaned out, your eyes rolling back. you grasped at his taught upper arms.

“you like that?” he groaned against your skin, setting it ablaze with vibrations.

“yes” you sighed out, bucking your hips slightly against his, desperate for more than just the grazing pressure of him standing against you. he seemed to understand your every need and hooked his fingers through the flimsy ties of your bikini and pulled you harshly against him. you felt a hardness in his shorts pressing against your core and your mouth practically watered. his hands trailed back up your body and to your back where your top tied together.

“this okay” you nodded and pulled him back in against your mouth, not wanting to waste a moment for words away from his lips. he expertly untied the knots and slipped the clinging wet fabric of your chest, leaving your boobs exposed to the outside air. he tossed the fabric on the ground behind you as he looked down at your heaving chest.

“god” he groaned out, his eyes widening as he brought his hands to your boobs and pawed at the the soft flesh. he ran his thumbs delicately across your nipples watching you, as you tossed your head back in a moan. he slipped his hands behind your back again, bringing your bare skin flush against his

“you’re so beautiful” he huffed against your lips. you began to rock yourself back and forth against his blatantly obvious hard on, desperate to build some friction. he wrapped one arm around your thigh and lifted you up to the top dry step of the pool, completely taking you out of the water except for your calves. matt lowered himself down to his knees a few steps bellow you, and began to kiss your knees and inner thighs. your legs quivered, as your core ached for attention. his wide blue eyes looked up at you, his mouth only inches away from where you needed him most, as his fingers hooked to the sides of your swimsuit.

“can i?” he mumbled against your skin.

“please” you whined out. he pulled at the loose bows, undoing the flimsy cover easily. you lifted your hips for him to slide the fabric from between your legs. he parted your legs with his hands, his pupils dilating to blackness as he took in the sight of you entirely exposed.

“so perfect” he sighed almost in a trance

“matt—“ you whined desperate and impatient. he looked back up at you with a half smile

“don’t worry baby, i’m gonna make you feel so good” his words alone could’ve made you come undone. he wrapped his arms around your thighs, holding you in place as he brought his warm wet mouth against your aching clit. he gently kissed at the bundle of nerves, making you thrust your hips up against his face hungry for more. he responded by beginning to drag his tongue in painfully slow circles around your clit.

“oh god—matt-“ you cried out, your fingers latching into his hair for support. he groaned against your sensitive bud.

“y’taste so good” your thighs squeezed his face as he began to move his tongue faster, flicking it it circles around your clit.

“oh fuck— that feels so good—“ you exhaled. one of his arms loosed it’s grip

as he brought his fingertips down to meet your folds. he broke his tongue away from your clit and rested his scruffy cheek against your inner thigh as his watched his own fingers drag up and down your dripping folds. you whined in torture and he brought his pointer and middle finger to your entrance pressing small torturous pulses against it, but not entering or giving you the fullness you needed. you were a mess at his touch, whining, moaning, and thrashing around, but he seemed to savor every minute of watching you. finally, he slipped his finger into your core and you cried out at the feeling.

“so pretty” he whispered again before starting to pump his digits in and out of you over and over, his fingers curving up expertly. the tension in your stomach began to form almost immediately. matt needed no clues in knowing what you needed and lowered his tongue back to your clit. your walls began to pulse around his fingers. you knew you were close.

“oh god—matt-i—“ you began to stutter out

“good girl. cum for me” he cooed. you fell apart with his permission and came undone. your legs stuttered as your high began to end and matt slipped his fingers out of you. he lifted himself back up to your level, leaning against the ledge behind you and kissing you again.

“see how good you taste” he said against your lips

“matt” you giggled slightly shocked against him, starting to close your legs. his grip latched back down on your thighs, stopping you.

“oh i’m not done with you yet” he growled through a slight smile, as he hoisted you up into the air. your wrapped your legs around him, as he carried you away from the pool to a nearby lounge chair. he laid you down on your back and climbed on top of you, between your legs. he pressed his still covered crotch against your exposed vulnerable entrance. you hissed, still sensitive from your recent orgasm. he stopped and pulled back from you

“you okay?”

“yes just sensitive” you let out a breathy laugh

“do you want to stop” the overwhelming look of concern in his eyes was adorable

“are you kidding me?” you said, wrapping your legs around him tightly, bringing him back down on top of you.

“thank god” he exhaled. you laughed as you began to kiss him again, rolling your hips up against him. he whimpered. you dragged your fingernails up his back and dug in slightly at his shoulders. he groaned again. the sound of him wanting you was enough to make you desperate all over. you continued to run your fingernails down his chest and to his waistband, snapping the elastic against his skin slightly. his stomach tensing at the feeling.

“take these off, matty” you whined.

“whatever you want” he pulled off from you and stood to the side, sliding off the shorts.

his rock hard dick sprung out free from the fabric and slapped against his stomach. your jaw opened slightly as your eyes took in the impressive size of him in front of you.

“what?” he chuckled

“youre so big” you said in genuine awe

“fuck you don’t know what you’re doing to me” he said, climbing back on top of you and needily yanking your legs up around him. the tip of his hard member rubbed against your clit as he continued to grind his hips against yours through your makeout.

“matt—“ you whined again, needing more.

“you sure you want to do this?” he asked looking into your eyes.

“yes matt—i want you so bad” you moaned to him

“fuck i’m all yours, baby” he said kissing you again, as he began to align himself with your entrance. he pushed himself inside you slowly and shuddered against you once he was all the way deep into your core. he paused for a moment, letting you adjust to the extreme stretch before beginning to slowly thrust in and out and in and out of your pussy. the stretch and fullness of him made you cry out sounds like you’d never made before.

“fuck you feel so good. such a perfect tight little pussy” he huffed out between his calculated thrusts.

“oh god matt”

“taking me so well baby” he cooed

“shitt-feel so good inside me, matty”

“yeah? you like when i fuck you like this, huh baby?” he breathed against your ear, burying his head into your neck.

“so fucking much—oh god yes—faster”

“okay beautiful” he began to pick up the pace of his steady thrusts and you thought you’d see stars. each thrust of his dick equally hard and timed out as he slammed against your g spot. you clawed at his back desperately, which only seemed to encourage him to pick up his pace to an impossibly faster speed. you slurred out curses in between pornographic moans as your mind became a total blur. you could feel your second orgasm approaching.

“OHHH FUCK MATT YES”

“fuck you sound so good moaning my name like that y/n”

“MATT OH GOD IM GONNA”

“you gonna cum for me again, baby?”

“YES OH MY FUCK”

“be a good girl and cum all over my dick” your eyes blurred with tears of pleasure as your ears buzzed and your second orgasm took control of your body. matt let out an uneven moan as your walls rapidly pulsed around his cock.

“fuck—squeezing me so good—shit—i’m close—“

“mmmm” was all you managed to moan in response as he began to trust into you wildly and unsteadyily

“oh my fuck baby i’m gonna cum”

“cum matt—i wanna feel you cum” you panted

“OHH MY OH FUCK FUCK IM GONNA CUM NGHH IM CUMMING” the groaned out as he halted his thrusts deep inside you, shooting hot white ropes of his release into your throbbing core. he collapsed breathless on top of you. after a moment matt pulled himself off your chest and propped himself up by his forearms.

“have any fun?” he asked sheepishly

“are you KIDDING ME? holy SHIT” you said in total honestly

“not half bad right?” he laughed, reaching for his shorts.

“unreal” he handed you his sweater and leaned back down to kiss you again, but pulled away abruptly

“sorry—was that weird? i don’t wanna make you feel pressured—“ you wrapped your arms around his neck shutting him up with another kiss

“good luck if you think your getting away from me now”

“i wouldn’t dream of it”

New Job, Who Dis?!

(Grim x Gender Neutral Reader)

Warnings:(DLC ending spoilers. Suggestive themes)

Grim is now living rent free in my brain.

After completing the DLC ending of A Date with Death, I have decided it is my favorite ending and conjured up a little dialog. This oneshot hints to the endings outcome, so spoiler warning ⚠️. This was written quickly, so pardon any grammatical errors! Enjoy!

“Hold up, start from the top. What's my job description again?”

“Your job will be to give life back to those who aren't supposed to die. Sometimes, innocent people are caught up in things where losing their life was NOT part of the original plan. Because your soul harbors the essence of life itself, with you at my side, you'll be able to attempt to save those people who are at the presepist of dying too early.”

“Attempt?” You eye him quizzically from your place at your desk. Casper is sat at the foot of your bed, long legs outstretched, hands in his lap. He nods and continues.

“Basically, when a mortal is on the verge of death, their soul has become tainted with what we call a ‘blight’ or ‘blight of death’. Similar to ‘the taint’ for reapers, though much much harder to bounce back from when the soul or a mortals very existence is overtaken or ‘infected’ if you will. Some people can bounce back on their own, while others succumb and meet their unfortunate end. I say attempt because sometimes a mortal is beyond cleansing. The blight is too far gone, and no amount of divine intervention will save their existence....so naturally, when we, no, you receive cases like this, time is of the essence.

“I see...wow, that's heavy. No pressure or anything. Sheesh.”

“Yes. The job will be difficult at times. Y/n, there will be times when a person will be beyond help. You'll want to save them desperately. Times where no matter how much effort is placed into saving them, it may not work, and you will be angry. I can't tell you how many times I've witnessed an innocent person parish entirely too early at the hands of a twisted version of fate. Those moments are out of my hands, and I have to ferry them away regardless. But that's where you'll come in.”

“Sooo I'm basically an angel??”

“No, they're grotesque creatures. They instill fear in humans and sugar coat their acts with pretty words. You'll actually give hope. Plus, you're much prettier than they are. Who really needs that many eyes and wings, honestly??? But anyways…”

You fall silent in deep thought.

“Y/n? Why are you screwing up your face like that?”

“Can I really do this, Casper? What if I mess up??”

“My sweetest, little nightmare. I'll be there with you every step of the way.” Casper smiles reassuringly.

“Thank God. OH! Do I get a cool ass scythe of my own, too?” You perk up almost immediately, wistfully looking at his impressive weapon that is currently leaning against your wall nearest the door.

“I...I'll never get used to the way you can flip subjects so easily. But yes, I guess. Once you're settled, we will get you fitted with a 'cool ass scythe'. Or at least a decent weapon you'll use to channel your soul energy. I know a guy.”

“You know a guy? That doesn't sound shady at all, but fuck yea!”

He chuckles softly at your enthusiasm.

“I'm glad you're okay with this decision. I really couldn't think of a better way for this to work out for both of us but-”

“But you have a big, sexy brain that was able to figure it out, now you're stuck with me foreeevvver.” You beam, triumphantly.

“I suppose I am, and quite frankly, I would have it no other way.” With a smile on his face, Casper stands, reaches for your hands, and pulls you to your feet.

“Awww, little reaper. Since when did you get so mushy? It makes me want to violate yo- I mean...I could really go for some food right about now. Yea, food. That's what I meant."

“...You really are something else. We will grab something on the way to my place.”

“Bet. Finally making good on us moving in together?”

“Obviously. I can't escape you.”

“It was inevitable, Casper”

“Seems so…and by the way…”

Casper slips his arm around your waist gently, leaning into your ear.

“I'll take you up on that offer of 'violating' me later, my little nightmare.”

“You just want to be stepped on.”

“S-stepped on? What..uh...I”

“The blush on your cheeks says you do. Can't take it back now. Your fate is sealed. I hope you're ready.” you wink.

“Haaa....fuck.”

Thinking about Guel Jeturk (Pt 1)

He is such a cool character. He's such a genuine piece of shit and at the start of the show I really thought, even if he did change, that I wouldn't like him, but by the time the show ended I genuinely wanted for his happiness as much as every other character.

So I just wanna talk about him I guess

Cringe analysis under the cut awooo awooOOoooOooo

I think it's important that Guel starts off the show as just an actual shithead. He's just the misogynist bully archetype at its core and he treats Miorine like property and everyone else like they're beneath him, but it's also important to understand the context of that behavior too.

Guel has basically everything. Money, Prestige, Power, Respect. Everything has essentially been handed to him on a silver platter, and as long as he continues to win duels (the only thing he is actually, GENUINELY good at) that won't change. And with that comes an insane amount of pride and arrogance. He expects things to go his way because, for basically his entire life, that's just how things have always been. In the business world that he's been surrounded by, the strong always win out over the weak.

But with Suletta, all of the pride and respect that comes with his title and status is utterly and completely meaningless to her.

And he tries his classic shtick of listing out all of his titles on her, because in the world he lives in, that alone is what makes him worthy of either fear or respect.

But it doesn't work on Suletta, because the world of the Benerit Group is not the real world, the one she lives in. She repeatedly looks past all of his flashy titles and admonishes and judges him for his BEHAVIOR, the true merit of his character.

When she agrees to duel him, Guel sees it as putting an ignorant girl in her place. And why would he believe otherwise? He's always been on top at Asticassia, and this is no different. Dueling is the one thing that he KNOWS he's good at. It's the one skill that is definably his, that he truly earned through his own hard work. It's why he get so upset and defensive when Suletta looks down on him.

But the important thing here is that he LOSES to Suletta. BADLY.

And the lesson Guel is forced to learn from this loss is that every single thing he latched onto in his life, everything that he decided makes him worthy of respect and admiration, is not only immaterial, but, more importantly, conditional.

His pride and status, his role as heir of the Jeturk Company, and, most damning of all, his father's love, was based entirely on whether or not he was the current Holder at Asticassia.

Because he lost one duel, (the FIRST duel he had ever lost, mind you) a duel to a Gundam that, based on what we know, was quite literally unwinnable, Guel's father slaps him across the face and yells at him.

Before the rematch, when Guel is told that the Darilbalde is piloted by an AI, his father slaps him across the face AGAIN and tells him straight up that his feelings do not matter if he's not the Holder.

Which is why the scene where Suletta defends him from Secelia's taunts and explains her motto is so important

Everyone in Guel's life at this point, even his own father, looks down upon and mocks him for losing the duel. But Suletta isn't. She just tells him that even though he lost, he still deserves praise for not running away.

This is probably the first time in his life anyone has ever just told him that. That it's okay that he lost. That it's enough that he just tried.

Quick aside, but this moment here, when Suletta is talking about how much her mother means to her, and Guel holds his hand up to the cheek his father slaps him across hasn't, and will probably never, leave my brain.

But Suletta's words don't reflect Guel's reality. And the fact that he lost means even more is being taken from him, including his ability to even duel.

During the rematch, the Darilbalde doesn't even respond to his input. He, like Miorine, is having all of his decisions made for him, because without the title of holder, he's utterly powerless.

And the truly tragic thing here is that, once Guel smashes the AI and begins fighting on his own, he starts doing much better than when the AI was fighting and his father was cheating for him. He was genuinely a match for Permet 1 Aerial. But it's too late.

Maybe this is just me, but I always got the impression that if Guel was able to fight this battle on his own from the start, it would have been much more even, and he might have even won. But he didn't. He lost, again. And because of this, things are going to get much worse for him, really damn fast.

#guel jeturk #g witch #gundam the witch from mercury #sorry im on my 3rd rewatch now so. im gonna be annoying still #sorry.#fucking love that editing images on this image posting app doesnt fucking work properly #hey tumblr why dont you fix ur fucking post feature #THEN you can add stupid bullshit nobody cares about #or not do that too!#whatever!

I have opinions about TotK. This is your spoiler warning if you haven't played/finished it yet. Also all of this is, once again, just my opinion on it and not a decisive fact! I will probably misremember things!

Anyway.

Okay so basically as someone who got it on release and beat it within a week, I'm a little underwhelmed by the game now that I'm looking back over half a year later.

It's not a terrible game! I'll say that first and foremost. But after waiting so long for it, and trying so hard to not hype myself up for it (failing horribly at that), it feels just a bit... same-y. The story is nice, and it's different. The boss fights and abilities you gain during your travels are nice. Everything else, though...

I like the map having stayed similar, with enough changes that I have to relearn some areas. The Depths are really fucking cool, and figuring out on my own that they're a negative of the overworld was incredible! But the sky islands were a little disappointing, I think. When we were told we'd be in the sky a lot, I thought there'd be more large islands like the tutorial one that you could walk around on. More references to Skyward Sword, too. It feels to me that they put more love into the Depths than the sky, in a way.

I like the main story. Figuring out Zelda was the Light Dragon (but not really believing it until the final Tears), and that she'd essentially spent thousands and thousands of years trapped inside herself, was AWESOME. Every cutscene involving her as the Light Dragon hit me hard, and I felt genuine sorrow everytime I saw her floating around the sky.

...That being said, I DO wish we could have a game where you get to actually travel with her. I WANT her to tell me about the minor lore of the world! I want to know about the various flora and fauna, and I want her to talk about Hyrule's history! Zelda is part of the royal family, and I'd imagine that part of her studies pre-BotW she'd have to learn about the history of her family (especially because of the importance of the Goddess' blood...). With how pre-BotW went between her and her powers, and her and her father, I'd imagine she'd make it a point to learn more about their history that ISN'T just the prophecy.

I, personally, did not like most of the temple boss fights. I can't really explain much of why- except for Queen Gibdo. I HATED Queen Gibdo because of all the smaller Gibdo chasing you, trying to chase down Riju for her power... It was a lot of things stacked on each other, and simply not my thing. Colgera was an absolute favorite however! The boss theme is AWESOME, the mechanics of being in the air and having to watch for projectiles, as well as crashing through the ice sheets to take it down? VERY, VERY FUN. Climbing through the sky just to get to the temple itself was one of my favorite experiences. Going up and up and up, and finally reaching the top where you break out above the storm clouds and see clear skies...

A thing that bothers me about the temples is that the cutscene at the end, where the ancient Sages gifts their powers to the new ones... I feel like they could've spent a little more time making them different, even if that meant more time in development. I would be okay with that! I think games should be in development longer in order to produce a good, finished product! Anyway.

The fight with Ganondorf was fun for me. I get SUPER immersed in it, so it was a fearful moment when I thought I'd beaten him, only to see his health bar fill again... and then go offscreen. And the DEMON DRAGON FIGHT? Holy SHIT.

I just wish there was more... substance to the game, I guess? It feels weird saying that. There are more things to do, but it's missing something I can't name. Something BotW had, but is now gone. I like TotK, like I said. It's clearly had love put into it, and I'm glad the developers spent more time on getting it as close to the perfect image they wanted as they could. Maybe it's just cause I've spent more time with BotW (over 300 hours), but I think I'm a little biased towards it. Maybe I'm just getting older and grumpier about vidya games, too. Who knows!

If you read all this, cool! I will reiterate that this is simply my view on it! If your view is different, good!! I'm happy to know there are people out there who enjoy it more than I did. Or if you hate it more than I do, maybe you have other things you want to point out about it that I missed.

I love rolfo🫠 honestly I love the whole swewnt to be fair. Even though I’m from Spain.

Haunted House (Fridolina Rolfö x Reader)

A/N: Impossible to not love the whole SweWnt tbh.

With Halloween around the corner and a fair with a haunted house in the city, the team decided that this would be the perfect activity for today's team bonding session. The haunted house was well designed from the outside, an old damaged wood house that looks like it’s on the blink of falling apart with curtains and spiderwebs hanging around everywhere.

Standing in line, your eyes scan over the house over and over again, silently wishing that maybe the universe is on your side for once and can help you to prevent yourself from having to go in there without having to admit your fear to your entire team.

A sudden soft touch on your shoulder breaks you out of your thoughts and makes you jump and turn around quickly, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.”, your teammate Fridolina apologizes softly, taking her hand from your shoulder.

“It’s okay, I was just a bit lost inside my head, anything you wanted?”, your reply after calming down from your short moment of shock, “Only two people at a time are allowed to enter, so I thought we could pair up?”, she asks you with her signature smile on her face.

“Yeah, of course!”, you answer probably a little too fast but why turn her down when she is tall enough to hide behind during the entire nightmare?

“Great, because it’s almost our turn.”, she points behind you. Turning around, you see that it is indeed almost your turn, only Patri and Claudia are still in front of you waiting for their turn to enter the haunted house.

It doesn’t take long before they enter the house and you two are now standing in front of the entrance, taking a deep breath you try to calm yourself down but the screams of your teammates inside make it harder and harder to keep your cool.

“Are you okay? You seem a bit tense?”, the woman next to you takes notice,tearing your eyes away from the house, you glance at her, ”Yes, I’m perfectly fine.”, you lie through your teeth not wanting to reveal how scared you are over a silly haunted house.

Frido doesn’t seem really convinced by your answer as she sends you a questioning look, “Are you sure? We don’t-”, “You can go in now.”, she started off but got interrupted by the man who organizes the attraction.

Wanting to get it done as fast as possible, you take Fridolina by her wrist and pull her into the now open doors of the haunted house. But as soon as you two are inside, you come to a halt, the creepy decoration and music plus barely being able to see anything, makes you question if you really prefer going through this instead of getting teased by your teammates.

Before you can decide though, the decision gets taken away from you when the door behind you suddenly falls close with a slam, making both of you jump this time, “Alright, I guess we have to do this now”, your teammate speaks up after a moment of you two just standing there. You let out a nervous laugh, swinging your hands back and forth from being nervous, “Yea… I guess we do, why don’t you take the lead? I can’t really see well here.”.

“You know I can see just as much as you do, right?”, Frido questions but does take the first steps forward. Deciding not to answer, you quickly follow behind her, trying to stay as close as possible to her so you can’t see what’s happening and hoping that you would get less scared from the jumpscares that are about to happen.

Walking through drapes, you both are met with a corridor where multiple doors can be found on each site. “Okay.”, the swede in front of you mutters lightly, making her way slowly down the corridor with you in tow trying to stay alert as possible to reduce the chance of being scared.

Getting closer to then end of the corridor, your eyes flicker between the remaining doors, trying to predict where the scare will come from but a second after your eyes left the door to the left, to check on the right door, a employee dressed in a zombie costume comes jumped out of the door to your left.

Screaming, you jump to the side and grab the sides of the taller woman to pull her in front of you to shield you from the jumpscare, almost making both of you fall to the ground when you trip slightly over your own feet while trying to move backwards to create some distance. The employee makes a few more weird zombie noises before disappearing back behind the door.

You rest your forehead onto the back of the woman, whom you still have in a tight hold, trying to calm down so your heart won’t beat out of your chest. It seems like Frido also needed a small moment to recover but after a moment she pulls out of your grasp and turns around to face you, “Did you just use me as your human shield?”.

“What? No… I was trying to pull us both away from the threat?”, you say but your explanation comes out more as a question than actually a proper explanation, she sends you a daring look, “Okay, maybe I was?”.

The swede shakes her head, “I can’t believe you would have just sacrificed me like that.”.

“I panicked! I didn’t even want to go in here in the first place!”, you try to defend yourself.

“I could tell but I think we have no other choice than to continue.”.

You let out a groan at her words, knowing that you have no choice and that the scares will only continue to get worse from this point on, “I know.”.

Pulling you at your wrist this time she beckons you to continue moving with her, “You can stay behind me, okay? But pull me once more in front of you to actively work as a shield and I’m going to leave you behind.”, the playful tone in her voice lets you know that she is not completely serious about her words but deciding that you rather not take your chance on being left behind, you nod your head in agreement, “Understood.”.

With that the journey through the haunted house continues. You feel as if you were stuck in a nightmare or something, countless amounts of dressed up employees jumping out of random places, scaring you non-stop. Your screams seem to get louder with every single scare, probably loud enough to entertain everyone who is walking past the attraction.

You are now clinging onto your teammate, eyes tightly shut, face pressed into her back, silently praying that it will be over any moment, as if your prayers were heard Frido speaks up, “I think we made it.”. Removing your face from her back, grip still tight around her though, you take a glimpse to look ahead.

Your eyes are met with a drape, where light visibly shines through and the noise of the fair rings through the thin cover.

Letting go of the tall woman in front of you, you make a break for the exit. Arriving outside you bend over, resting your hands on your knees, taking deep breaths to calm down from the horror experience you just went through, “Thank god, it’s over.”.

Too focused on yourself, you miss Patri sneaking up on you, only noticing her presence when she lets out a loud scream right next to you. Jumping away from her, you let out a scream once more.

“WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?”, you yell at the midfielder who is clutching her stomach in laughter.

Fridolina had made her way out by now as well, trying to suppress her own laugh when noticing the horrified look on your face and the way Patri is almost on the floor from laughing so hard.

“Really first you use me as your shield and then you leave me behind?”

“I didn’t leave you behind! We knew it was the exit!”, you try to defend yourself.

“Well I guess you got what you deserve for leaving me behind.”, she says, a smirk forming on her face, motioning to Patri, who is now standing next to Claudia, watching something on her phone. Listening a bit closer, you can recognize your own scream replaying, from the device.

“Really? You all suck.”, you mutter to yourself. Frido, who heard what you said, lets out a laugh, throwing her arm around your shoulder, “Come on, I'll buy you a tea after being so brave, I’m sure your throat needs it after all the screaming.”.

Rolling your eyes at her words, you let her lead you away from the haunted house, to buy you that tea, silently hoping that it will help to reduce the pain you already are feeling in your throat.

Safe to say that you will never step foot into a haunted house again.

Marika wanted to kill Godwyn?🤔 wouldn't be weird for her to tear her legacy apart idk but this is a popular theory and I want to know what do you think of it?

Okay, it might come as a surprise since you mention that this theory is "popular", but.. your ask is literally the first time I've ever heard about this take existing! I guess it goes to show I've gotten TOO comfortable getting all theories and headcanons from my dashboard formed by the same like 10 mutuals fjhhfddd

So, I asked my friend @val-of-the-north to give me the context on justifications for this idea 🤔 To condense it, it is held on Marika being a Nox herself and closely associated with the Nox still (can see the influence in Melina fighting like the Black Knives and Radagon using their Celestial Dew for example), how in the end both Marika and the Nox are against the Greater Will, quote by Finger Reader in Deeproot Depths saying that Godwyn was supposed to be a "martyr of Destined Death" differently and how she is said to have betrayed Maliketh! From myself, I've also remembered that the soulless demigods who were murdered during Night of the Black Knives are also referred to as her 'unwanted' children, that could explain her willingness to rid of some offspring, but I double-checked and this is even more layered:

(Taking Japanese script from here ( x ))

So yeah, I can sorta see the potential in the idea of her having reasons to get rid of some of her bastard children (maybe they were a threat to her reign for all we know?), and things did not go as planned as Godwyn, who is definitely not a bastard, got involved! She did not want that, as we heard that what motivated her to scatter the Elden Ring was her grief from the promo trailer, and she would likely not want the existence of 'Prince of Death' figure that violated her order that is against living in Death!

youtube

(at 1:03)

So yeah, the theory could go in a way of Marika trying to do her own stuff, maybe for a good reason for all we know, but being betrayed by the Black Knives and Ranni once they were given the opportunity and losing it! As a ruler, she had to take a hell lot of morally reprehensible decisions to preserve it and herself - a very common concept! And yet, that unexpectedly cost her the child she actually loved and wanted around. It is the "Godwyn's death driven her to the brink" part why I am not convinced his death was her calculated sacrifice, personally.

It still can be, of course! Maybe she expected him to 'just' die, but he became Prince of Death (a figure of similar importance as Goddess of Rot!), so her being driven to the brink refers to fear for her legacy and control, and being tired of wrestling to keep her status since everyone, even Greater Will itself, want her gone THAT much. Or maybe she expected to take it cool but forgot she had feelings too and lost it in regrets! I am just more on the side of reading her grief more directly! And, again:

So far it seems like it were the Black Knives / Nox and Ranni who had the plan to work against the Greater Will initially, rather than Marika having her rebellion against it in mind from the start and placing Godwyn on the altar of the goal!

There are further stretching 'clues' such as Sellia descending from Nox themselves and initially opposing Golden Order by housing bunch of glintstone sorcerers who hail from Astrologers, since them and Raya Lucaria were "hostile" magic to all that Golden Grace stuff before marriage of Rennala and Radagon! Carians were themselves initially in opposition + Puppets rituals of their Preceptors being invented by Nox, but you get the point! Unification of two (three??) opposing factions through their leaders doesn't necessarily sit well with everyone else involved, even if they are simply descendants that just want to reclaim their lost heritage! It is not just Sellen being like that, although she is the 'spokespeople' for the sentiment: the hostile moods probably have been lingering and boiling up in general! This trope is old as civilisation itself, moreover, happened in real history all the time!

Yeah, Marika as Radagon "erased" all the warcrimes from the general memory, but, again: the methods themselves were invention of Nox!

Clearly, some witness yet remained, and seems to be linked to the people that were aligned with the 'stars'! That is to say, that betrayal by Black Knives falls into place more naturally in my opinion: be it full on murder spree of her family by their own volition, or she wanted them to do one thing but her trust cost her dearly!

As for Maliketh, I do also think that the Rune of Death was stolen from him without Marika plotting anything about this! I asked someone else and seems like the last sentence, '後にそれを裏切ったのだ' more closely translates to 'Later, he was betrayed [by whoever is the previous person mentioned in the context]'. Correct us if we're wrong but it seems that there is no 'even then' link (so, no ties between betrayal and him holding the Death for her), which kinda is simpler and makes more sense anyhow!

Since Shadowbeasts are product of the Greater Will, and supposedly will rebel if their Empyrean fails or betrays it (source: Iji's paranoia about Blaidd and Blaidd actually being an odd one out), Marika should have been concerned about him! I think that her betrayal was giving him false hope to redeem himself by reclaiming Destined Death through consuming the Deathroots, but turned out she never planned so and simply needed an excuse to keep him far away when she'd shatter the Elden Ring! He thought that even if losing the Destined Death cost her Godwyn (and other children, we don't know her relationship with the 'bastards'), she was still willing to forgive it as long as he fixes what can be fixed and becomes "useful" again..

Another reason why I lean more towards Black Knives simply turning on Marika's bloodline due to variety of historical and ideological reasons rather than given a task and betraying, is that they started with Godwyn! Had it been something plotted and gone wrong, murder of Godwyn would've been dramatic plot twist rather than the first priority! I think words of that Finger Reader have no different meaning than Miquella's prayer; that Godwyn should have died in peace as a victim, instead of becoming the all-corrupting abomination he is now.

The point she is also making more specifically, is that it is, again, a bad thing for someone of the Golden Lineage to represent what is against the Golden Order! The different reading of this line is that she'd make an "example" of Godwyn to fear and hate any folks that 'oppose' Golden Order, or opposed it in the past, as well as remove the "competition" for her reign in the face of her superstar child. I had to take Val's words on what pointers are used in this theory, so I am only addressing this bit based on the fact that he brought it up too!

_________________________

So yeah, to conclude the post, this theory could work with some assumptions and headcanons, but I am good with the take that leaves Marika betrayed and clueless! The theory at times makes Marika even more of an evil mastermind, and other times makes her a very drastic rebel against GW from the get go! As for me, she has done enough of far-fetched plotting and warcrimes in her life, but I think everyone has limits on how much they can predict. Just treacherous fate of any ruler of this kind, really.

On Kouyou and Mori's relationship

@2offayyo-kzt THANK YOU FOR ASKING because you prompted me to talk about Kouyou and I love talking about Kouyou. Original post the reply is referring to.

Okay most of it comes from the Kouyou / Mori / Chuuya scene at the closing of the guild arc. First off: in chapter 37 we are made aware that Kouyou decided to stay at the agency of her own accord. Besides from the reasons she had to stay, it's just pretty cool how it's confirmed that Kouyou doesn't feel like having Mori's orders or will she has to answer to and just... Pretty much is free to do whatever she wants. She doesn't care about what Mori requires from her - Mori who most definitely would have wanted her back at the pm as soon as possible - and just acts of her own accord, which is something that even Chuuya doesn't do.

Following up, Kouyou and Mori also reflect over how she's perfectly capable of freely leave the pm, yet she chooses not to (btw her little smirk following Mori acknowledgement of her abilities is SO cute). Again, it goes to show how independent she is from Mori (pretty much putting her on his same level I guess?), being able to leave the pm facing no consequences or retaliation, and just in general how master of her fate she is. It's nice, it's RARE for a franchise where female characters are usually just thrown from one side to the other by external factors and rarely get to choose for themselves.

Then - and so far I strayed a bit from the initial matter, but this is most relevant to the point I was making in the original post - she says “Shut up. I'll sew your mouth shout.” There's A LOT in those lines because it plainly shows how she just... Doesn't fear Mori, doesn't fear calling him out on his creepy behavior, doesn't fear (playfully? ← arguable) menacing him. She's just so unbound and free and self-governed, and totally unbothered by Mori unlike any other character (except for, well, Elise, who's part of Mori herself). It's a joy to see.

Next, the volume 10 extra. The “that's why I told you”, “I'll punch you”, it all goes to reinforce the concept that Kouyou is perfectly unafraid of Mori and doesn't shy away from calling him out and scolding him even sternly. But it's especially interesting to compare her behavior with Chuuya's. Where Chuuya tries to find accomodations for Mori, Kouyou scolds him, and later even accuses Chuuya of being “spoiling him”; their approach is completely different, and as a consequence their relationships with Mori are diametrically opposite. Again, back to my initial point: even Chuuya, who is one of the most self-reliant characters of them all, knows he has to answer to Mori, and accordingly treats him with respect; Kouyou is perfectly unbothered and unafraid.

And even more examples: chapter 42, Kouyou openly arguing with Mori's decision, lacking that mentality that is shared between pm operatives that Mori's plans are infallible and there's no point in questioning them (just think about how sure, confident and even smug Chuuya was about Mori's plan during the Guild arc, chapter 22). Chapter 43, Kouyou spending “half a year's worth of founds” to attack a government van, which I can guess goes against what Mori wants for the pm (lol) and once again just shows how Kouyou... Freely bosses around and does whatever she wants, answering to no one.

With this I'm not saying Kouyou doesn't care about Mori. She DOES care about Mori, she just doesn't in a “subordinate is loyal to their superior” kind of way. She cares about Mori, the thing is that she does because she chooses to and not for any other constraint, which arguably makes her the person that is closer and most loyal to him?? Because she has no second means for being loyal to him, and just does that because she wants to, which makes her loyalty the truest, most authentic one. And Mori knows that, and that's why she deserves to be the next pm boss, and I know they (authors) will never make her but she deserves it and she's the pm boss of my heart end of conversation.

Headcanon time while we're at it, I like to think for Kouyou to address to Mori so informally and familiarly is a way to make up / compensate for the trauma she underwent with the previous boss. When Mori killed the previous boss, she swore she would have never lived in fear again, and even though she ultimately decided to stay in the darkness, it's now her choice; a choice she personally and freely makes despite being aware of potentially, realistically being able to leave at any moment. Addressing Mori as he was her equal is a way for Kouyou to remind to herself about how free and unbound she is.

About Mori and Kouyou, I like to think they had this siblings-like relationship since before Mori became boss I mean, they canonly go cherry blossom sighting together. I like to think a very small, subconscious part of Mori killed the previous boss because Mori held resentment towards him for hurting Kouyou- but that's definitely straying too far alcbdklzbdkskxbks. I like to think Kouyou wanted Kyouka in the pm because she genuinely believed that under hers and Mori's lead Kyouka could be happy, that the pm was the place that most would have welcomed Kyouka, welcomed what Kouyou believed to be her nature.

#Anyways thank you for asking Op akdbdksbos I love talking about Kouyou #bsd #bungou stray dogs #“But how can you say Kouyou is fit to be the next boss when we never saw her holding remarkable leadership skills”#well maybe we would have if they cared to give female characters more than 0.5 seconds of screentime.#But since they don't‚ I can perfectly make up whatever I want for her skills and characterization #(Besides‚ she's part of the four / three pm executives‚ that must amount to something??)#Also chapter 46? The way Chuuya looks at Kouyou before making the decision of attacking the ada?? As if asking for her permission?#Which is NATURAL and VALID since Kouyou is his senior and has been in the pm way longer than he has??#And is closer to Mori too for the matter??? Aaahh c'mon‚ it's like she's already the second boss.#Kouyou's role in the Cannibalism arc was to personally guard Mori. C'mon.#kōyō ozaki #Tbh very unpopular opinion but I always felt like Kouyou was like. an accidentally well written female character.#ōgai mori #Also not to fuel my “Mori and Kouyou have a close-siblings like relationship” headcanon but chapter 19:#Chuuya: The ADA took Kouyou hostage #Mori (literally‚ I'm not making it up): Well that's rather unfair. Right then! Let's kill the head if their agency.#Uh #bsd analysis #mine

Q&A: Naoki Urasawa’s Pluto

I’m going to be answering all of your asks about the story under a cut so no one gets spoilers.

Ask about the caretakers’ decision regarding Wassily going to Oslo:

Hi. Idk if you’re still doing Pluto asks but I have a question. I felt a bit confused about why the care worker ladies just let a couple strange men take Wassily away without consulting Epsilon. Maybe I wasn’t fully paying attention and there was some larger unavoidable reason for them giving him up? Did I miss veiled threats or something? Just felt like the ladies were all “oh well, we have to I guess…” Many thanks in advance.

Listen! When I tell you that part of the story makes me rage like a white boy punching drywall I just—! Ugh. Just call Epsilon *dial dial, beep boop bop* 'oh hey Epsi, my boss, the dude who takes care of the orphanage, hey ya listen, I know you're getting grilled right now, but uh there are some wack dudes here who want to take your kid away, you cool wit dat? no? okay. how fast can you get back here??' Done. Easy. Epsilon wouldn't have been put in the situation to go into Abra's trap. *punching drywall

I digress.

Here is my theory as to why they justified letting Mr. Johansen take Wassily without telling Epsilon based upon the circumstances and other factors which might have motivated them.

Of the seven most advanced robots, Epsilon has the most powerful and destructive capability. If he had joined in the war a lot of battles would have ended very, very quickly if he unleashed his photon energy.

The world might have believed a lot of people and robots wouldn't have died if he'd joined the fight. So they could've blamed him for not preventing so many deaths.

In the manga, it's stressed that people around the world very much despised and even abused Epsilon.

Not only did the world hate him for not fighting in the war, but also for raising human children.

Even though the war was over, Epsilon was still contemptible.

What I think is interesting is the false claim Mr. Johansen makes about him and his wife visiting the orphanage before, (in the anime, he says they've visited several times). Perhaps he's implying that Epsilon hadn't let them foster Wassily in the past and he's come back to try again but without Epsilon present to deny him. A child protection service would find Mr. Johansen, "a famous figure", being denied numerous times concerning if he had reported that experience to them. They might even send a representative with Mr. Johansen to see if something could be done about it...

What Ms. Griffith I think has to weigh is whether to deny Wassily being adopted because Epsilon wasn’t there to approve it, which would likely cause further scrutiny and a full investigation into Epsilon's orphanage as to why/if he's preventing children from being adopted and raised in a normal, human family environment possibly resulting in all of his children being taken away and the orphanage being shut down—or let Wassily be taken. They might even want to still take the other children away simply because they finally have enough of an excuse to prevent Epsilon from raising children, no matter how small the excuse was. Ms. Griffith knows the children are cared for by Epsilon more than any human could and she doesn't want that to stop. She could fear that if Epsilon had been there or if they had called him, that he might have denied Wassily being taken by Mr. Johansen which wouldn't have looked good, (unless, of course, Epsilon was given the opportunity to research the man and find out he had a fake identity and was working for Abullah). If the man accompanying Mr. Johansen had the authority to take Wassily away because of being some kind of child service representative, then maybe the caretakers legally didn't have a choice and they really were going to take Wassily no matter what. Letting Wassily be taken away would be beneficial to the orphanage and the children under Epsilon's care financially and maybe even legally.

So maybe the caretakers made the decision with the best interest of the other children in mind—and even to protect Epsilon.

But in the end, no one could protect Epsilon. Wassily and the other children still lost the one person who loved them more than anyone else in the world ever could...

#pluto #naoki urasawa's pluto #pluto anime #pluto manga #epsilon #pluto q&a #this is my theory please let me know what you think #Pluto ask #don't mind me just being depressed about Pluto again #sorry it took me so long to answer this #mind you these images are from a fan translation not the one you’d see in the official English version

tlou hbo s1 ep2 thoughts (w/ spoilers)

the opener for this ep was honestly scarier than the first imo, seeing the woman inspect the dead body and find all the signs of infected were SO creepy, and then the slow dawning of fear in her throughout the scene, the quickness with which she both proposed bombing the city and accepted her death. such a good building of suspense throughout

and then also the way her bomb suggestion was a lead into the later conversation with joel tess and ellie about how the cities were bombed. i love that we don’t actually know if jakarta was bombed or not, the idea that everyone came to the same conclusion without following from example is even more harrowing of a reality

ellie all curled up in the grass comfy and asleep i would kill for her i would die for her i want to hold her in my hands and protect her from the world

“fine i’ll just throw a fuckin sandwich at them” I LOVE THIS GODDAMN KID

joel and ellie’s back and forth throughout the ep is so fun i think it does such a good job of setting up their chemistry without getting them to connect to early

the little giraffe toy in the weeds :’(((

tess basically immediately adopting ellie im obsessed. i love that we get to see a bit more of their dynamic than the game bc it really highlights that tess is a good person at heart even if she says otherwise. she connects with ellie quickly, and the way her empathy and hope slowly starts shining through as the ep progresses (and even as she begins to accept her fate) really says so much about her character

“there’s no boyfriend that’ll come after you?” “…..no.”

the foreshadowing of ellie guessing at the infected types is awesome, i love the fact that she technically got them both right. related but i wonder how they’re gonna do infected types like the shamblers if spores aren’t gonna be a thing

that little frog vibin on the piano what a talented little guy

THE HOTEL SCENE IS TOO EARLY i wonder if they’re gonna have a hotel basement scene now?? probably not which kinda makes sense, it’s a scene better played than watched. but it would’ve been cool to see how they did it

love the expansion of the fungus lore, the interconnected-ness of the tendrils is so cool and so goddamn creepy

the entire clicker sequence was SO GODDAMN GOOD. the way tess and joel don’t tell ellie (or the audience) anything about what’s going on really forces us to put ourselves in ellie’s shoes so that we’re as terrified as her. and the fact that there doesn’t need to be a word of dialogue said to get us to figure out how the clickers work is so goddamn impressive, a shining example of ‘show don’t tell’ i think

am sad that no bricks or bottles were thrown tho

the rooftop scene. i could cry with how faithful this show is

the change in dialogue at the capital building,, “i never asked you for anything… not to feel the way i felt…” i am in so much pain.

on that note it’s scenes like these that really make me love this show bc there really is something for everyone. connecting back to the infected lore from earlier was so fucking cool and felt like such a natural change and the changes to tess’s dialogue make the scene so fresh and still impactful for people that already know the game

i love the specific line “save who you can save” because i feel like it does the perfect job of emphasizing how much tess buys into the cure while also setting the stage for joel’s decision down the road. like at the end of the game, joel really does save who he can save, it just isn’t in the way tess intended. it’s a way for him to still hear her words and connect with them but also have the intention twisted

okay bear with me but i actually liked the inclusion of the cordyceps kiss, it takes something that is so normal and even beautiful to us but then perverts it like that’s textbook horror baby!

general overview: how in the hell was this ep even better than the first

#tlou hbo #tlou spoilers #the last of us #my posts #goddamn yall i really am losing my mind ITS SO GODDAMN GOOD #I CANT BELIEVE WE GET THIS #tlou hbo notes #tlou 1x02

Diabolik Lovers LOST EDEN ー Reiji Maniac [Prologue]

CHAPTER MASTERLIST

ー The scene starts in the bedroom at Eden

Ruki: ...I see. So you received an official letter.

*Flip*

Reiji: Yes. It appears that the Vibora Clan would to continue the alliance which was established during the previous reign.

Ruki: You are implying that both clans have been in a close, friendly relationship with one another, right?

Heh, but this phrasing...Personally I take this as a sign that their leader Zweig is afraid of you.

Reiji: Who knows. He is rather cunning after all.

Ruki: So...What will you do?

Reiji: Before you ask me said question...Perhaps you should read the letter till the very end?

Ruki: ...I will do just that.

*Flip*

Ruki: ...?

‘As proof of our alliance, you will have to hand over the woman known as Eve’?

Reiji: Utterly disgusting.

Ruki: So, what will you do?

Reiji: I could never agree to such conditions.

Ruki: ...Is that woman so dear to you?

Reiji: ...I would like to ask you to refrain from making such statements.

Ruki: However, you do intend to decline their offer, correct?

Reiji: ...Of course I will. She has absolutely nothing to do with any of this. She is but a mere human.

Ruki: Just a mere human, you say? Then why are you so attached to her?

Even though you have the power to rule over the entire Vampire Clan. ...It makes no sense.

Reiji: ...Her unique blood is not what attracted me to her. Please do not get the wrong idea there.

Ruki: ...Maybe you should stop answering besides the point instead? We’re not talking about your personal feelings right now.

Reiji: ...!

Ruki: Listen. I assume that the Vibora’s main focus is your powers as they fear that they will become comparable to those of Karlheinz.

We can hardly blame them for feeling a sense of danger towards the individual who does not only possess such immense force, but also Eve, the woman infamous for her special blood.

Do you think that perhaps...It is a conscious decision of them to not go on the offensive just yet?

Reiji: ...

Ruki: ...Go cool off your head for a bit.

ー Ruki gets up

Reiji: ...Wait.

Ruki: Is there still something else?

Reiji: This may be besides the point right now but...May I ask how Eden’s progress has been since I came here?

Ruki: In what way? How is that related to what we talked about earlier?

Reiji: ...Could you please just answer my question?

Ruki: ...The situation is even more dire than before.

Reiji: I see...

ー Ruki leaves the room

Reiji: ...

ー Reiji destroys the letter

Reiji: I suppose this is beyond guessing work...

*Knock knock*

Reiji: Who is it?

Yui: It’s me. May I come in?

Reiji: ...Go ahead.

ー Yui enters the room

Yui: Pardon the intrusion. I saw Ruki-kun leaving the room so...Are you done talking?

Reiji: Yes. ...So, is there anything you need?

Yui: I came to bring you the book which got wet...This is an important document from the pharmaceutical department, is it not?

Reiji: Aah, my bad. Sorry for causing you trouble.

Yui: Oh no, it was nothing. I’ll leave it here, okay?

*Thud*

Yui: ( I wonder why he suddenly had to leave but...How should go about asking him? )

Reiji: ...

Yui: Is that...a letter?

Reiji: Yes. But I already received the message, so I no longer need it.

Yui: Who was it from?

Reiji: That is none of your business. So please do not try to play detective.

Yui: S-Sorry...

Reiji: ...If there is nothing else you need, you should return to your room.

Yui: Eh...?

( I feel as if he suddenly grew cold...? )

Reiji: ...My apologies. I unintentionally sounded a bit harsh just now.

...I have not finished reading through these books yet, so I’m sorry but I would really appreciate it if you would give me some time alone.

Yui: I see. I’m sorry for not being more considerate.

Reiji: No problem.

Yui: ( He won’t look me in the eyes. ...I’m a little sad. )

( I’m sure that something must have happened but...I suppose I’ll do as he told me for now. )

...Please excuse me.

ー Yui leaves the room

Reiji: ...

( I have to give her up? ...I could never do that. )

( After all...She is my one and only Eve. )

( It is outrageous for them to demand I exchange her in order to preserve the authority of the entire Vampire Clan. )

( In which case...I only have to try even harder to learn to fully control these powers. )

( To achieve that... )

ー A flashback ensues

Reiji: ( The moment I pulled away from the kiss...I could see the shrubbery behind her smoldering and falling apart. )

( I am positive about this. Rather than withering away, it would be more accurate to say it got eradicated... )

ー The flashback ends

Reiji: ( I will have to confront the phenomenon which occurred when I held her in my arms and realized how dear she is to me. )

ー The scene shifts to the hallway

Ruki: ...And that is what happened.

Kou: So, what was the problem with the letter from the Vibora clan?

Ruki: They demanded for him to hand over Eve as proof of the alliance.

Azusa: Eh? ...Eve...?

Yuma: Oi, oi...There’s just no way, right?

Kou: So, what did Reiji-kun say?

Ruki: I doubt he will approve of the trade. ...He went on a whole sentimental rant nobody is interested in.

Yuma: Hold up. Don’t tell me you’re in favor of handin’ Eve over to those Vibora?

Ruki: I am.

Azusa: Eh...? No way...

Yuma: Look, I know we go ‘round callin’ her all sorts of shit but she’s not a tool, ‘kay!?

Kou: Exactly. That’s a little cold and pretty...cruel, don’t you think?

Ruki: Haah...Do you guys not understand that this the only way to prevent a war?

Yuma: I’m sure yer argument makes sense and all, but this is just out of the question no matter how ya look at it.

Azusa: Exactly...We can’t sacrifice Eve...

Kou: I’m against it as well.

Ruki: ...As harsh as it may sound, that is simply her fate.

Kou: Do you really have to put it like that?

Azusa: But...Reiji-san would never give her to the Vibora, would he...?

Ruki: ...Not for now, at least.

hope it's okay to kinda springboard off your ai post - but i feel like a similar reason as to why ai generation can't be mapped onto the usual fear of "x replacing y" is that all of those other mediums absolutely require a skillset of their own to actually create a good final piece.

certainly as someone who does digital art i could pick up a camera and take a few shots, but none of my photographs would be so technically stunning as someone who actually Knows their way around a camera. and the same thing with traditional into digital art, while there's a similar knowledge of color theory, anatomy, etc, it took a lot of time for me to get used to a tablet versus a brush! but when it comes to ai generation it is really not hard to just throw words at a machine to get what you want out of it. people calling themselves 'prompt engineers' as if it takes anything other than a few moments of trial and error to get the ai to do all of the work for them truly overestimate the amount of work they're putting in

RIGHT that's a good point too... like obviously I have to admit that my knowledge of how interfacing with these neural networks "works" only extends to seeing what other people do with them, but I have been actively researching and I've seen both how you can get some fascinating stuff from a pretty vague prompt, as well as a lot of garbage, and how tweaking and fine-tuning your prompt can give you far more specific and potentially more tailored results. It is a skill, inasmuch as it requires conscious intent and effort to get a specific outcome.

But in my personal opinion, it's a little more akin to the fact that like... I can load up GarageBand and throw together some random pre-made tracks and make something really weird and dissonant that I can, on a purely technical level, call "music." Or I can take a little more time to pick tracks that are in the same key and have rhythms and tempos that complement each other, and probably end up with something that sounds pretty cool (I have, in fact). But that doesn't really mean I can claim to have "composed" either of those songs--I didn't make a single decision about notes or chord progressions or instruments, I just stacked a bunch of sounds on top of each other and then slapped a 5-second fadeout at the end. Did I "make music"? Yeah, I guess, although I'm sure we could still split hairs over that. Does it feel like work and effort while I'm in the process? Sure, I'm still making creative choices based on my own sensibilities. Am I a musician? God no.

Random thoughts on Picard, ep 3.3 "Seventeen Seconds"

Beverly's secret. I was afraid this was going to be Beverly’s rationale. I was hoping it would sound more plausible to me, but, sadly, it’s lame. Okay, I get her being afraid for her baby’s safety. Plus, we know that if she would’ve told Picard about the baby, duty would’ve won out and he would’ve stayed in Starfleet. But Picard retired from Starfleet when Jack was probably five or six. So, she could’ve told him then. She chose not to. My guess is it was the “I’ve waited too long and it would be awkward” rationale. Which I can understand, but It’s still annoying. However, I can live with it. It was obviously a rash decision made out of fear for her child. Was it the correct decision? No, but the show's not claiming it was. It's just the one she made.

2. Shaw: I was a little conflicted about Shaw giving command to Riker. He should’ve given it to his first officer, but apparently, she’s still in trouble for insubordination. But he does have a very good point–they are in this whole mess because of Riker so he should clean it up!

3. Dr. Ohk: I really want to like her, but she annoyed the heck out of me. She should be grateful for Beverly’s help, instead of assuming she doesn’t know what she’s doing because she hasn’t been in Starfleet for twenty years.

4. Worf: Cool seeing Worf again! He's gotten so chill since we last saw him! t was surprising to hear he's not in Starfleet anymore, but at least he's still working with Starfleet as a subcontractor.

5. Rogue changelings: OMG, that's a great twist! I love it! Now, I'm hoping we'll get a guest appearance by one of the DS9 actors. That'd be awesome! (BTW, I loved the reference to Odo here.)

BTW, I thought it was odd when Worf was telling Raffi "Once Changelings were an enemy of the Federation..." I was like--she's old enough to remember the Dominion War, Worf!

6. new changeling threat: I immediately thought of Admiral Leyton and his attempted coup during the last changeling threat. I imagine he'd be awfully smug to learn the danger has returned.

Can’t wait until next week. (BTW, I’m missing LaForge and Troi. Hopefully, they’ll be coming into the story soon)

Ok you know what, it’s Juan time

How did he and Matt became rivals in your hc? Did something happen between them, or did they just met, lock eyes with each other and then be like: “yeah i hate that guy now”

Also good to hear that your day’s been well, it’s pretty cool that you’ve had nice chats with ppl and got things done :D

That opening line has been like. My brain this past week.

And okay, SO-

Matt is very competitive, and does his best to ensure control over everyone around him. Growing up, he learned to channel his anger, helplessness, fear, desire for connection & attention, and pretty much everything else into like... controlling his situation and other people. Especially other people's perceptions of him. In order to make it in his career, he needed a good grip on his reputation- and though he feels confident in his own abilities, he's aware that he's not the only talented person out there with connections, so he tears others down in order to ensure that he gets where he wants to go.

It was common for him to have intense reactions to slights or criticism, especially from anyone who might be his competition. He'd hide his reaction on the surface (gotta look pretty and friendly for the cameras (: ), and then obsess over that person until he got revenge in some way. Find ways to stalk them until he finds information about their life and relationships that he can use to tear them down, maybe slip some (non-lethal) poison into their drink or something, set things up so that somebody brutalizes them, that sort of thing. Then he'd move on and forget about them.

Same would go for if there was an upcoming competition, and he could tell that another person would be a potential threat to him winning. He'd do something to sabotage them shortly before the competition so that they wouldn't be able to perform at their best.

In my own personal headcanon, they both met when they were 18. Just out of high school, and just beginning their more serious careers. (For Matt, he'd grown up a child star, and this was the point at which he'd focus all of his attention on developing his career and making it big. For Juan, he'd been working all his life to get to this point, and had just begun getting his big breaks.)

Lemme copy-paste this section of dialogue from Juan, from my current main rp:

"I start to get the odd job. Got gigs, started auditioning for project after project. One day I get invited to this party. Meet some snobbish prettyboy who looks at everyone like they're the dirt beneath his shoes. Guess I must have said something that pissed him off, I don't remember what. Something he felt offended or slighted by in some way. Whatever it was, it was enough to get me on his radar.

He started pushing me, metaphorically speaking. And I started pushing back. I wasn't going to let this rich pale boy who had everything handed to him on a silver platter from day one fucking intimidate me. That's how it started."

When they both got starring roles in opposing television shows that aired at the same time, that only escalated matters.

Juan is competitive and stubborn as well. He can be self-absorbed and a bit of an ass, albeit much less so than Matt. Due to his personality, he was quick to shoulder up against Matt's arrogance and sabotage, quick to seek revenge and try to shove back and show that he isn't a target and can be just as much of a threat if you get on his bad side.

Juan was definitely acting defensively throughout their rivalry, and would have let it die if Matt had made the decision to stop fighting him. But that never happened. And when Celeste took her life, his hatred towards Matt deepened to an entirely new level.

S Plays 'Golden Wildfire' - Part 3

I . . . NEVER POSTED THIS?????????????????? LMAO??????????

Chapter 6 - The Leader's Stratagem

Story Content

Gloucester (and presumably Ordelia) are back in the Alliance.

i don't understand the "but we were friends at the academy!!" angle. babes you were there for two weeks.

Huh. Edelgard calling Claude clever. Okay. It's nice, but just . . . not what you'd expect based on Houses lol

....OH NO. MERCENARY BANDS HIRED TO HELP FERDINAND. OH NO.

Hubert thinks Ferdinand's an incompetent fuck and while that's arguably in character I feel a visceral need to defend my dude.

ohoho? I think Lorenz smells Claude's Federation scheme in the air and Claude's not fuckin happy about it flkgjdlfgj

their c-support is so unhinged kgjsflgk. Claude: You know, I always feel like my plots are like walking a tightrope. Everything is a risk. Lorenz: YOU'RE SPEAKING ??? OF YOUR FEARS??????? WHAT? UNHEARD OF. PREPOSTEROUS.

Leonie ALSO seems to think Jeralt's mercs are gonna be there. We'll have to see.

???????????? Linhardt's saying that he thinks Edelgard send Ferdinand to Derdriu as a favour to a friend?????? Odd. But everyone is dunking on Ferdinand and I don't know why.

Holst offering to be Shez's surrogate brother lfjldfgkjg i already adore him.

The people of Derdriu aren't pleased at all with the presence of the Empire (artisan in the camp). Let's see how they react when Claude allies with Her Majesty.

Claude is. Not having a good time at all. All the planning seems to be? Really wearing him down? Which would have been neat if it didn't end up eroding his morals.

It's strange. He's talking about straight-up collapse when this situation isn't that much more stressful than Houses? In fact, in Houses, Dimitri was nowhere to be found; there was the Dukedom and what remained of the Faerghan loyalists. Claude would have been utterly fucked if the rest of Faerghus fell, but he wasn't harried over it? I know they're trying to prep Hopes!Claude for the decision he makes but uh. Well. Hard to do it this way when you have a whole game's worth of contradictions lol.

I fucking hate that Claude is going on and on about wanting peace like he's not about to go around causing problems on purposes and without reason. (claude/raphael c support)

(Claude/Holst C support) Claude: "Call it a gut feeling, but I suspect [Almyra's] next attack will be a battle that changes Fódlan forever."

Uh-oh.

The Empire is officially out of Alliance territory.

Claude doing what I love and being all "Fuck them, they attacked us first, staying on the defensive is just going to put us in danger." Go king.

"What's more, if we can claim House Bergliez's farmland for ourselves, ten the Alliance would be sitting pretty for a century to come."

See, this is the sort of thing I like in Claude. A whole "well the Empire has done us in now, so all we can hope to do is make the most of it." Whether there's personal problems for people in Claude claiming Adrestian territory is another matter, but . . . well. Edelgard did start the war as the emperor; kind of on their/her head.

Half of the Deer are none too pleased about marching on Adrestia when so many of their troops are wounded; the other half want to be done with the war and take Bergliez out of the picture to do so, Holst most of all. I guess this is where that cool cutscene is gonna come into play?

Allusion to frustration with the fact that this is a decision that has to be made by the Roundtable.

Erwin (Count Gloucester) left Lorenz out of his plans to make sure they didn't both take the heat if Claude's plan failed. Yay!

Erwin believes Claude is dangerous. If this were Three Houses, I would be booing him. But because this is Three Hopes, I have to admit he's, ah, kinda right.

Erwin back to winning points. "An Alliance leader who dismisses any amount of suffering is unfit to bear the title." and then he loses them. "I am convinced Claude will never understand that."

What a guy. I love him and his almost-there notions.

Erwin decides he's too . . . whatever to deal with Claude, and that Lorenz would make a better Count Gloucester to compliment his style of leadership. He decides it's time for Lorenz to make decisions as he sees fit, and hands the title and house to him. It's honestly sweet :')

HEH HEH, got Thyrsus

Gameplay

There's a new facility to learn tactics. You will never be Garreg Mach!!!!

Main Battle

The battle description very explicitly states surrender, rather than total destruction, of the Imperial forces in Riegan as the end goal.

Ferdinand, Ladislava, and Holst meet for a parlay.

Ferdinand declines surrender despite his forces being fucked on all sides. According to Holst, he "didn't even consider the possibility." If anyone has this interaction from Scarlet Blaze's perspective, I'd love to hear it. Well, regardless, apparently his troops seem ready for a "fight to the death."

Edelgard apparently made Ladislava promise to keep Ferdinand alive, which is . . notably tenderhearted. Hm.

RIP to Ladislava

Side Battles

Quash bandits,

Misc.

I have decided to flirt with Claude. Might as well. he's pretty to look at.

CLAUDE? He goes "The five lords are eccentric, but they're good at what they do just the same" and then saying you respect them isn't even a neutral answer, it's the WRONG answer. WHAT DID I DO!

"Once I accomplish all my goals in Fodlan, I'll . . . Actually, I'm not sure what I'll do after."

Keeping an eye on THAT sentiment.

Sorry but it's fucking hilarious that I'm over here with my neon purple hair and cute bun trying to aggravate Holst into fighting me by suggesting I might fuck his sister.

Huh. Strange Claude line in an excursion: "You ever get this sudden urge to drop everything and go somewhere far away when the work starts piling up?"

Hilda's voice in Japanese . . . I am not immune to cute girls.

ONTO THE NEXT

#s starts a wildfire
