okay but. a whumper who is infuriated by witnessing how much whumpee and caretaker love each other - how they'll sacrifice for each other, the fact that they’ll take unnecessary pain to spare the other, things that don’t benefit them at all outside of knowing the other is okay - because it goes against everything Whumper told themselves about the world….and everything they’ve never had.

YESYESYES

Chapter seven is fresh out of the oven!

Summary:

After Arnolds' van crashes out in the middle of nowhere at the crack of dawn his dispatcher rushes off to try and save him. It's been one hell of a night already, but with the Mimic hot on their trail will they make it to the next one?

I’ve been watching Loki, and I came up with an AU!

Dispatch works for the TVA and just works as a dispatcher out of boredom

Arnold is a variant, but Dispatch saves him (partially bc he needs him and partially bc he’s a hopeless romantic)

Understanding a line of foreshadowing so well that you have to stand up and walk around the house saying “shit shit shit shit shit” until you’re composed enough to go back.

"vampire bats are so scary"

him? hims is scary to you? with his little face and puffball body?

Vampire bats are only a few inches long from snooty to booty. what you SHOULD be afraid of is the giant gold crowned flying fox, which is so damn big that you could give it a hug. But dont. leave the touchings up to the Scientists please.

Except you don't need to be afraid because he will not eat you, fear not. he wants a fig slice.

Cassette fact of the day #1:

Magnetic tape recording had already existed before the creation of the compact cassette through the use of reel-to-reel tape machines.

In 1928, Fritz Pfleumer patented his invention of a magnetic tape strip that could be used as an alternative to wire recording. This tape was made of a thin paper coated in ferric oxide powder, and used lacquer as glue.

Pfleumer's invention would later be used by a German electronics company called AEG to build the Magnetophon K1. This would be the world's first practical tape recorder, and would later be brought to the U.S. and inspire the creation of many more tape machines.

The tape machine was not only used by radio programs, but also airlines and factories. It was even used in the home; about 1 million households in the U.S. owned a tape machine in 1953.

Over the years, recording engineers would make the size of the magnetic tape smaller and smaller, which eventually led to the creation of 1/8-inch tape by Phillips in 1962. This is the tape size that can be seen in compact cassettes today.

Why does everything I love have to break

Why does everything I get genuinely invested in end up blowing up in my face

Why can’t I have a community that doesn’t inevitably get torn apart because of someone else’s dumb fucking actions

I refuse to loose distress signal, I refuse to let my love for them die… but fucking hell it feels like I’m grasping at cobwebs here! JESUS FUCKING CRIST CAN I HAVE A BREAK FOR ONCE???

To anyone who has no idea what I’m talking about it, please stay that way. I also just want to scream into the void without hurting anybody

[springlock-spirit]

a Whumpee with a smart mouth who absolutely cannot back it up. Who talks back to Whumper and insults them but then begs for mercy once they start getting hurt. Who goads Whumper into a fight and then gets pummeled because they're way out of their depth. But it’s worth it to Whumpee to have some small moments of defiance and rebellion.
