#I THOUGHT IT'D BE FITTING FOR ME TO INCLUDE IT INTO THIS SCENARIO

[lunaetis]

▸▸ [ @apocryphis ( alhaitham ) || wishlist. ]

─「エデン」─  ' are you straying from your path because of him ? ' the usually saccharine voice held an edge of disapproval as those MAGENTA HUES bore into her golden orbs. no words were uttered from her end, teeth gritting so tightly that her jaw began to hurt. the fire in those AMBER OPTICS burned so fiercely as though it'd consume the figure before her. that smile didn't reach her eyes, eden could tell.

                ' he's an outlier. a distraction. ' it sounded like she was being LECTURED, like she was a child being scolded for misbehaving. eden refused to move, she refused to entertain this conversation. she was here for answers, and she had gotten none that was satisfying enough to accept. and THE STELLARON HUNTER could see it, how a mere mention of that man could bring out a sort of reaction never seen before from the TRAILBLAZER.

                ' is he that important to you ? ' silence. the golden tattoo upon her inner-wrist was pulsing quietly. that smile turned into a smirk. ' he is not a part of the script. '

                ' it'd be a shame if he were to be erased from existence — '

                " DO NOT TOUCH HIM. "

                eden had never felt such fury, she had never felt SO LIVID prior to this very moment. she had known anger, but not a seething wrath smoldering through her very veins like liquid gold that even THE STELLARON was roaring its might inside of her chest. it was responding to its vessel's emotion as she lunged at kafka, weapon immediately summoned into her gloved digits and she growled at the woman who had awakened her from deep slumber.

                for the first time, eden had attacked kafka with an intention to kill.

                she was, however, no match for the VERY WOMAN who taught her everything she knew even though she could not remember. pain seared into her mind as countless threads wrapped tightly around her very frame, digging deeper into her skin until ichor dripped onto the glowing strings themselves. a particularly sharp one pressed around the column of her neck. a choked gasp escaped her, fingers being forced to drop her weapon as gloved digits tilted up her chin. SCORCHING AURIC clashed against magenta. defiance. rebel. destruction.

                eyes that would burn the world for him.

                ' you're no match for me, eden. '

                ' if elio wanted him gone, he will be. '

                the TRAILBLAZER woke up with a throat-tearing scream.

nanami kento nsfw headcanons

characters: nanami x fem reader warnings: 18+, smut, general mentions regarding sex notes: i saw this A-Z list of prompts and thought it'd be fun to imagine nanami in these scenarios! let me know what you think of it

A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)

he fully understands the importance of aftercare and will do everything he can to give you the best treatment. communication is key, so he'll ask you what you prefer and follow through with 100% effort including things like cuddling, whispers in your ear about how good it was, running a bath for you, etc. the more rough he is during sex that day, the more he'll make up for it after. he is truly the best at aftercare and goes above and beyond to make sure that you feel loved.

B = Body part (Their favourite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

the reason nanami works out is so that he can be strong enough to protect you, so his favourite body part is his arms and hands. he loves wrapping them around you in a hug or being able to lift you up, manhandling you and throwing you on the bed. he likes being able to pin you down, one hand holding your wrists together above your head while he pleasures the rest of your body.

on you? if you ask him, he'll get all blushy and shy about it. what he says aloud is your eyes, your smile, something safe even though he does really like those aspects of yours. but privately, he's a boobs guy, and he just loves how your breasts look when you wear slim-fitted clothing, the way it outlines your curves. if you're riding him, he's for sure staring at your breasts and how they bounce every time you move. and he loves to grope them, massage them, feel how soft they are in his hands, the reaction he gets out of you when he flicks at your nipples.

C = Cum (Anything to do with cum basically)

the two of you don't have sex super often because you're both busy people, so when you do, he always comes a lot. you can feel it when you fondle his balls, how heavy and full they are with all his pent up desire. you can feel it when he thrusts his cock into your pussy and comes deep inside you with a loud moan, releasing everything he has. and it always takes a long time for him to finish coming just because there's so much of it, his cock twitching and spurting out ropes of come for what feels like forever. and then it's nanami's favourite part: pulling his cock out of you and watching his come drip out of your pussy, hot and white and sticky, all overflowing as it spills from between your legs. the sight of it alone is almost enough to get him hard again.

D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

before you two officially got together, he would have wet dreams about you almost every night, and he'd wake up painfully hard every time. then he would jerk off while imagining you in his head, creating his own fantasy of how he would fuck you if you were there with him. this happened so often that he would get embarrassed when he saw you in person because he didn't know how to act around you anymore.

after you started dating and you found out about this, you definitely took advantage of it. you told nanami to masturbate and get himself off while you watched him, and he had to narrate one of his fantasies to you. so he would stroke his cock while telling you exactly what he imagined and whenever he got shy, you'd tsk at him, who said you could stop? it turned him on so fucking much even though he never admitted it. and then, of course, you would recreate that fantasy with him, and when he finally orgasmed, it was the hardest he'd ever come.

E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?)

nanami's not the most experienced in terms of how many people he's slept with because he only has sex with long-term partners rather than hook ups. he's had a few previous relationships so he's not completely inexperienced either. but what nanami is good at is learning and figuring out what works for you because that's the only thing he cares about. he wants to make you feel good and he's a quick learner, always watching your reactions carefully to see what you like and how to get you to come. he becomes so good at it that he can have you falling apart within seconds, and it's something that he's very proud of.

F = Favourite Position (This goes without saying.)

this one is obvious but of course nanami loves when you ride him. it's a great time for him when he's able to lean back and watch as you bounce on his cock while he admires every inch of your body. sometimes he'll tie your hands behind your back and that turns him on too, seeing you ride him with only the movements of your hips, making you work for it. if you get tired, he'll be so generous and help you out, holding you up so that he can thrust up and pound his cock into you. he loves it when your mouth falls open, moaning uncontrollably, and when you throw your head back in pleasure.

missionary is another favourite of his because he really likes the intimate aspect of it, being able to see your face and kiss you. he's in full control here with his body above yours as he thrusts his cock in your pussy as fast or as slow as he wants. and if you wrap your legs around his hips, pulling him in deeper—fuck, that really gets him going, and he'll fuck you even harder, cock throbbing with need.

G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc)

he's pretty serious in the sense that he's not like cracking jokes in the middle of sex or anything. but he loves to tease you and he's not subtle about it at all. it's his favourite thing to get you more and more riled up, all horny and frustrated, because it makes him aroused to hear you desperately beg to be touched, beg for his cock.

H = Hair (How well groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)

he cares a lot about personal hygiene so he's always well groomed. maybe not fully shaved all the time because the hair grows back too fast and he can't be bothered to keep it entirely spotless, but it's usually trimmed and well maintained.

in other areas, he also has some hair on his chest and a happy trail that makes you absolutely feral. he knows it too because sometimes he'll push down his pants a bit so that it's partially visible and he smirks at the effect it has on you, how it gets you almost instantly turned on.

I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect…) 

it depends. there are times when the two of you go slow, making love to each other, and it's the most intimate and romantic thing you've ever experienced. other times, maybe when he's had a particularly stressful day at work, he'll be rough almost like he's taking out his frustrations on you, and he pounds his cock into you without mercy. he knows you can take it, knows you'll be good for him, and all you can do is moan and moan...

J = Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon)

i wrote about this here.

K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)

some light bondage really gets him going, like using his tie to restrain your hands or some rope to loop around your breasts and spread your legs for him. this doesn't happen too often, but he likes dominating you and you like being dominated by him. with the bondage, your movements are restricted and you can't touch him so he's in full control over how much you get (you want to be touched? you want to come? only good girls deserve my cock) and how much you're forced to take (yeah, that's it, take my fucking cock, look at how badly you pussy needs it).

another thing is semi-public sex or a small degree of exhibitionism. this is just him getting turned on by having sex in taboo places, like when he brings you to work and closes his office door and fucks you over the table where all his important documents are laid out. he'll say, shh, don't make so much noise unless you want everyone to hear you moaning on my cock and the forbidden aspect of it gets him off even more.

L = Location (Favourite places to do the do)

in bed when he's feeling intimate and romantic. against the wall in the living room when he's too fucking horny to wait any longer and he can't make it to the bedroom in time. at his office when he wants to relieve stress from work. the closest private space that he can find when you tease him in public and get him all hot and bothered, knowing that all he can think about is how he needs you right fucking now.

M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)

nanami gets the most turned on when you're tempting him but he can't do anything about it at that moment. such as:

you wearing revealing clothing and purposely bending over so that he gets a glimpse of your cleavage. or you sending him naughty photos while he's at work and he has to hide the growing boner in his pants. or when your touches linger on him for a few seconds longer than usual, hands brushing past his nipples and palming at his erection for a brief moment. or when you whisper something dirty in his ear in a public space like i'm so wet right now... want you to fuck me right here, bury your cock deep in my pussy and then walk away as if nothing happened. all of those things will have his cock stirring between his legs, planting the most obscene thoughts in his head.

you can tell that it really gets to him when he starts clenching his jaw and he's breathing harder and his cock strains against his pants, twitching helplessly. if you keep it up, he'll become so horny that the minute you two are alone, he'll push you against the wall and fuck you right there, not caring about whether other people can hear or not.

N = NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

if you two haven't talked and agreed on doing something, he won't do it. he wants to make sure that both of you enjoy the sex. and probably nothing too hardcore in general.

O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc)

he likes to give more than receive when it comes to oral, and he's so damn good at it too. he's an expert at eating you out, knowing exactly where to lick and how to drag his tongue to have you writhing and squirming above him. he revels in the sounds you make, your gasps and moans and whimpers. it gets him so aroused when you come from him swirling his tongue around your clit or thrusting his tongue into your pussy. your hands clench around the bedsheets, grabbing at his hair, thighs shaking at what he's doing to you. his cock is so, so hard as he licks your pussy, feeling it throb and pulse as you come on his tongue.

when it's your turn to give him a blowjob, nanami cock twitches just at the sight of you sinking down and kneeling between his legs. it's the best kind of torture when you start with gentle kisses up his shaft and licking all over. he sees heaven as your swirl your tongue around his tip and swallow him down all the way, bobbing your head on his cock. you take him so well and he goes a little crazy at how his cock disappears in your mouth. his horniness is off the charts now, and he always tries to resist, but he can't help thrusting his hips, fucking his cock in and out of your mouth. you suck him off, flicking your tongue under the crown of his cockhead, and he explodes in your mouth with a guttural moan. you keep going even as he comes and it drives him wild, reduced to a moaning mess, his mind hazy with pleasure. he's panting when you show him all of the come that you've collected on your tongue and that makes his cock twitch again. fuck, he doesn't think he'll ever get tired of this.

P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)

listen, nanami has the range. it really depends on the day and circumstance, but he's definitely capable of going at any pace. on mornings when you've just woken up, he'll be slow and sensual. if you've been apart for a while, it'll be a heated reunion like you can't get enough of each other. if he thinks that you've been a brat and need to be punished? get ready because it's going to be rough and he won't take it easy on you at all.

Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)

not a fan of them. he likes being able to take his time with you without feeling rushed. of course, there are instances where he's just so horny that he needs a quick fuck right now, but if he had a choice, he would prefer a slower pace.

R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)

he's pretty open to trying new things if you express interest in them, and sometimes he surprises himself at how into it he gets. he would be willing to do spanking, choking, hair pulling... anything that makes you turned on will turn him on, too.

S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last…)

oh boy, nanami seems to have endless stamina so you can only hope to keep up with him. it takes a lot to get him to come, or rather, his self-control is unmatched and he's so good at holding himself back to draw out the pleasure even longer until he absolutely can't take it anymore. sometimes he even ends up edging himself multiple times simply because he doesn't want it to end yet. he uses this skill to focus more attention on you, and he almost always makes you come before he does. you've tried to outlast him before, but he's too composed, too good at breaking you down.

not only that, but he can go for multiple rounds, as many times as you want. it takes him a while to get hard again after he comes, but when he does, you better believe that you won't be able to escape while he fucks you over and over until you can't think anymore.

T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)

not much, and if he does have toys, it's usually to use on you, like a vibrator. you fall apart so quickly when he uses a vibrator. it's fun with the different settings too, because he gets to control your pleasure. he'll have one hand with the vibrator pressed to your clit or thrusting in and out of your pussy while his other hand jerks himself off to the sight of you trembling on the bed. if he times it really well, he can have both of you coming at the same time, moaning together as the pleasure peaks.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

he teases you, but usually in retaliation to you teasing him first. you enjoy getting him all riled up at inappropriate times like the time you were kneeling under his desk while he had a business meeting. or accidently grinding your ass on his cock when he's spooning you. it's fucking hot to see him try and hold back, to resist the temptation when he's clearly aroused. and he always gets his revenge, teasing you relentlessly and not letting you come until you're completely wrecked, pussy so sensitive and throbbing, aching to be filled. he rubs the tip of his cock by your entrance, taunting you, feeling how wet you are. he says, you don't seem like you want it badly enough. maybe i'll just leave you here. you beg him, beg him for his cock, for him to stuff you full, promising not to tease him again. when he finally fucks you, properly, he stops right before you're about to come and it's so cruel. so fucking cruel. he pulls out, watching your hips buck up desperately and pussy pulsing in his absence. he does this again, building you up to your orgasm only to deny you at the last second. you're going to lose your mind. he leans in to whisper in your ear, this is what you wanted. you love it when i tease you. and you do, you do, but you also want to come.

V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)

he's not loud but his moans are the sexiest sounds you've ever heard. with his deep voice, especially if he moans right by your ear, it'll send waves of arousal through your body and make you clench around him just to hear it again. every noise he makes feels like a reward, a way for you to know that you're making him feel good. he grunts when he thrusts in and out of you. he groans when his hips start to stutter, cock throbbing as he gets close. sometimes you'll get a whine or whimper out of him and those make your pussy so fucking wet, hearing how desperate he is to come. and of course his moans—low and drawn-out, broken, lost in pleasure. moaning your name, moaning about how good it feels, a choked out moan as he fucks you full of his come. his moans are the hottest sounds you've ever heard.

W = Wild Card (Get a random headcanon for the character of your choice)

he loves to see you dressed up in lingerie, any kind of clothing that shows off your curves and exposes your skin in a scandalous way. he'll often buy you sexy lingerie sets for you to try on as foreplay before you have sex. his favourite is a bra that's pretty much see-through with an opening for easy access to your nipples and a thong that comes with a garter belt to wrap around your thighs. and if you give him a lap dance in that outfit, oh he'll get hard so fucking fast and his hands will be all over you. the fabric is so thin that grinding against his erection feels so good, feels almost like you're fucking him right there. the lingerie stays on when you finally have sex, and it makes nanami absolutely feral, like it unlocks something in him and he snaps.

X = X-Ray (Let’s see what’s going on in those pants, picture or words)

oh, he is big. definitely bigger than average in terms of both length and girth. if he's wearing tight pants, you can see the outline of his cock so clearly between his legs. and when it's hard and leaking, his bulge is obvious to anyone who looks, like his cock is fighting to break free.

unzip his pants and his cock will spring up, curving toward his abdomen, flushed red at the tip and drooling with precum. it twitches and throbs, hungry and desperate for your pussy. if he takes a dick pic and sends it to you... oh man, you better free up your afternoon because you'll be either masturbating yourself to his picture or finding him right that moment to have his delicious cock inside you.

Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)

fairly average overall, though it's funny because he thinks he has his desires under control... then you send him a sexy photo or say something suggestive to him and suddenly his cock is stirring, arousal rushing through his body. it's easy to get him in the mood, especially since he finds you so attractive.

and his sex drive is definitely higher than the public perception of him. the way he presents himself is so put together that people tend to think he's boring in bed. but the first time he brought you to his office, everyone saw how he looks at you and how he's always finding excuses to touch you and they realize that he gets it more than he lets on. they quickly learn that nanami kento fucks.

Z = ZZZ (… how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

it's very rare for him to fall asleep before cleaning up both of you and making sure you're comfortable. he doesn't like the mess and much prefers going to sleep with a clean set of sheets. but there are times when he's so fucked out and in a state of bliss that he just falls asleep right away and that's when you know the sex had been really good.

[danieyells]

I find the idea of Ren being a pervert so nice bc he seems like the least likely at plain sight to be like that, a few times he invited them over to watch movies after working in Jabberwock hoping that you leave something behind and more times than he wants to admit he came to the fantasy of you sitting on his face

He plays mobile games and you think he's the least likely to be a pervert? I guarantee you he is, at minimum, into all sorts of weird 2d shit--trust me, i'm just like that.

But yeah I can absolutely see him being a pervert! He doesn't have anywhere in his room to sit for when he invites you over for movies so, uh, sit on this pillow. He's got more than one pillow for his bed, stop making it weird. Of course after you go home he's huffing that pillow while he jerks off, cursing himself for being so gross but very much lost in the smell.

He doesn't know how to approach you socially so he fantasizes about you instead. After Haru returned the uniform of his that he had you wear he didn't even wanna wash it. It's not like he wore it much at that point anyway, it smelt more like you than it did like him. . .it'd be a waste, right? He's not sure if he wants to wear it or smell it more. (Getting a new one is expensive so he ends up wearing it of course.) If nothing else that you wore it makes it a lot better. If only he'd gotten to see you in it. . .he would never be brave enough(or willing to put forth enough effort) to but it's fun for him to imagine catching you in his clothes, 'getting mad,' taking them off of you. . .all your clothes got wet and dirty, were you even wearing anything under it then? Oh no, he's real hard at the thought. . . .

But most of his fantasies are in line with his usual interests. Not having to do anything at all. You come to him--you seduce him or push him around a little, tease him for getting hard, then. . .it varies a bit from there. You ride him or sit on his face or suck him off or whatever. Sometimes he gets so pent up he turns things around in his own fantasy and isn't so passive. Sometimes he's a little kinder to himself in his fantasies and it's more gentle and loving--you confess and things escalate. . . .

Or you sleep over--in his room for some reason--and he molests you in your sleep. Or you do it to him. . . .

And of course the more fantastical ideas. . .you get to be the couple in every horror movie that sneaks off to screw. Of course, you don't die in the fantasies, but the idea of being in a scary scenario and you only care about him. . .it's stupid, but it pleases him emotionally too. He's nobody special or important or interesting or strong like other ghouls but maybe that's what you'd want, just like him. All of this crazy stuff, the anomalies, it's too much--something ordinary fits you both way better.

. . .on the other hand he's watched enough hentai to think some of the anomalous plants and animals could have more. . .interesting effects. Maybe you're helping out and he told you you should just hide with him instead of working, you shouldn't help them, but you come to him needy and desperate because of some weird plant Towa's keeping. . . .

He can't be bothered to try and get away with being perverse towards you anywhere but in his own head but he thinks about it. If not for that Japanese phones are forced to have the shutter sound on them he'd have so many pictures of you on his phone. . . . He'd be a total hypocrite if he was open about it anyway--he complains about everything minutely able to be interpreted as harassment himself and then he harasses someone else? And who's not gonna believe that the loser loner sexually harassed somebody? He'd get in trouble right away! And with all your connections the last things he needs are members of every house hunting him down. Including his own. He can't hide forever. That's way too much effort just to satisfy himself once or twice.

Nah, he'll keep it in his head. He'll imagine groping you in the dark during movies and sleepovers and acting like some anomaly snuck in and did it if you ask. Try and peek at you in the shower when you stay over--or, think about it anyway because somehow Haru or Towa would definitely stop him. Maybe he could get some kind of little spy cam for the bathroom. . . . If you stay over or get messy while helping out again, they'll take care of the laundry here, he'll let you borrow his clothes again, and if your underwear occasionally go missing well. . .that happens with laundry sometimes, right? Hey, you think that's an anomaly too, whatever makes clothes go missing?

He'll bump his leg against yours to know what it feels like to touch you. You'll be watching scary moves in the dark and he'll grab you to startle you--no, it was too dark, he didn't realize he was grabbing your ass/thigh/chest, he swears! He did clamp his hand over your mouth on purpose though--he just didn't want anybody else to wake up! And yeah maybe that ended up with him holding you to his chest--that was incidental. He just thought it'd be funny. Sorry. Feel something against your back? What're you talking about?

I think he'd make a great pervert, just a very cowardly one haha. He keeps it inside or just hopes things end up working out in his perverse favor. Probably hates himself for it a little bit too--he'd hate if someone was like this towards him after all! Why should he think he's any less repulsive?

Every time I saw 'Shameless' on my feed, I skipped through it. morally wrong fanfictions were something I decide to ignore, try to act like its not there...with that being said, I read it.

-Now before anyone says anything- i know, "its just a fanfiction, get over yourself". I love diving into the writing of it all, and especially when its something i am not usually into- i think its a way for me to see how others perceive it, and how indifferent it is to mine. its embarrassing, but honestly i felt like i was trying to cover my eyes from something so horrid and painful. but! decided to not be a pussy and to let one of the most wonderful writers know that i read their fanfic and wanted to give my feedback.

there's something about cheating fanfics that intrigue me. that there's people out there with the feeling of its bad but "i want it to happen to me." at first, since i saw these kinds from my late teens till now, i would think, wow these people are so self centered and selfish. they hate cheating but when its a guy they like- they'd want to take a risk against another girl to just be sexually involved with him. there's nothing wrong with falling in love, even if its someone you never thought of. Of course i know that this fanfiction doesn't revolve on how she got with him or any of the sorts, but even the small dialogue they have during intercourse, does make wonder; How does OC really feel? You know her best cher and it does kind of linger in my heart about even, how did you feel when writing the reader (including you). I mean, you, too, are a reader. , there's something about the way you write, my love. i reread the beginning like 4 times after finishing it fully wondering, my gosh how skillful are you? i almost forgot what a fucking scumbag Jungkook and OC were until the end. the chemistry they have in impeccable and i LOVED the way you said "sleezy smile". like yes, he is sleazy and so is oc.

After Jungkook expresses that he misses OC, you write; "echo's through your made empty head". i can tell she's out of it completely. I loved that when he speaks to her with something that should be yearning for comfort in a 'loved one', all she can think of is the lust she feels for him. It indicates to me their relationship completely. I think something that hit me and really took me out the "smut" mood is when you describe her feelings. During a very intimate moment she doesn't get out of the thoughts of her bestfriend, yet "inside of a grasp you dug your claws in, fitting in holes that aren´t yours- molds you never made, though you seem to fill them out better than their originator." I admit, i did put my phone down and get teary. The stinging in my heart and the way my eyebrows raised so high when first reading that. Let me remind you cher, this smut was beautifully written. Your writing will always be top notch, but i think this is where the personal perception kicks in, to so many- it can turn them on and enjoy the interaction. And in my head, i zoned out completely, i dont know if you did it purposefully, but in a way i did enjoy it. i enjoyed kind of letting myself think for OC, and for the bestfriend. i can never conclude why Jungkook just wouldn't leave her if he has no feelings. it'd still be terrible- but this. Just keeping her around and stringing her along is what made me hate Jungkook and OC.

This fanfic might be morally wrong, but the writing is absolutely right. Was so so perfect and you portrayed everything wonderfully. I dont think i can put everything i truly felt in this message but i want you to know i.. in a way loved it. You know you dont need my approval for any fanfiction. But i hope i expressed it well for you to know how i also felt since you deserve good feedback ml. It also did give some perspective of situations like this even if its fake in this scenario, thank you for yet again writing. I know its takes time and effort. especially when writing so many and sometimes losing the passion for some plots. I appreciate you so so much and you know this. Perhaps with this i might once fight the good monsters and channel some evil magic into writing a good cheating fic at some point in my life. With that being said, good job cher. I'll be waiting for part two patiently to see where it all goes 🌸

-reminder 💌

i'm so overwhelmed with love and grattitude i dont even know where to start. First of all- THANK YOU. Thank you for spending so much time and effort telling me about your thoughts, appreciating my writing, even jumping out of your comfort zone and trusting me. And i love hearing about your inner working while reading- i love knowing what you think, what gets you going, what makes you mad and sad and everything involved. Im so endlessly grateful and filled with so much love for you. Youre an angel, a sweet sweet angel.

As for what you said- i understand that so much. I usually HATE fics like this. Messy, non happy ending, asshole JK fics. They make me mad and upset and just, icky. But i had the urge and i followed it. Im glad we can relate on that in a way

I also think like you; how could anyone do this to their best friend? Value a man over friendship, break every moral and rule and even, a heart, for your own desires?

I think the answer is all psychological. OC hates herself as much as she needs to affirm herself. She, at least for me, truly needs this confirmation- to be chosen, to be picked even though technically jungkook has everything. Her bestfriend has everything, everything she wanted- maybe everything she isnt. Jelaousy makes people do things. But she also knows thats shes not his first choice. She isnt some emotional grand love, she isn't just a fuck either. But- she ignores it, tells herself how important she is- how he must be doing this because her best friend cant satisfy him- cant, for once, be everything. I wont explain that in the story, because its not fleshed out,,, this is just a possible answer. So in a way, as guilty as she feels, the thrill, the affirmation, the satisfaction of feeding your ego and being selfish is what makes her so so shameless. Part two will go deeper into the way both Jungkook and Oc feel, and i hope that makes you understand it better than i explain it now. Im already so excited to hear from you when its out!!

Im so so touched that the Paragraph made you feel deeply, made you evoke emotions - real feelings. Thats the biggest praise i can get as a writer and it fills me with so much love. Thank you for complimenting my writing it means the world to me, genuinely. Hearing you appreciate my efforts, knowing how much you liked it- im so so so so so glad and happy and UGH i love you, i love you !!!!!! 🖤

HI HELLO I LOVE YOUR WORKS SO MUCH I BEEN LITTERALLY SCROLLING THROUGH UR BLOG NONSTOP HEARTS HEARTS <<333 HDHFJGVUKVK (esp your cyno stuff I LOVE HIM)

ANYWAYS- can i request a character who BARELY gets sick like their body whistands just about anything and theyre pretty tough and resilient

BUT THEN they get SO sick and IT HITS THEM LIKE A MOTHERFUCKING BUS. Theyre low key just as surprised as anyone else because theyre so out of touch with their body they dont even realize it until they just straight up pass out or something

but even then they dont even admit it like “me? sick? never”

and yummm what if they dont know what to do because theyre never sick like its a first and they are so *bad* at dealing with it, like so bad it’s embarrassing someone has to step in. when caretaker steps in theyre like “this is how u do it” but then sickie goes like “but im not even sick” and caretaker is patiently like “yeah mhm”

bonus points if they hate being fussed over. maybe someone tries to put their hand on their forehead to check for temperature and they will dodge out the way with such speed like they’re low key so *uncomfortable* with the amounts of attention theyre getting they would rather suffer in silence (ill let you ponder on why 🤭)

but alas whatever they caught is A BITCH so they have to get bombarded with love and affection cue evil laugh <3

u could do this for any character u see fit, but cyno is def a suggestion cuz i can see him doing that (and because i love seeing him suffer sorry not sorry)

spent so much time writing this my icecream melted im slightly annoyed but i can only blame myself LOL anyway im sorry for this long ass column of writing, dont feel pressured to include everything i wrote it was really just food for thought like to get the creative juice flowing perhaps (or its just my endless stream of thoughts begging to go somewhere)

ANYWAYS BYE BYE LOVE YOU TAKE CARE OF URSELF MWAH MWAH <33

THANK YOU SO MUCH ANON! 🩷 I'm so happy you enjoy my works!!

This is SUCH a good concept! I love the whole scenario of "character never gets sick so when they do get sick it's bad." There's just soooo much potential with the trope! And I'm a sucker for characters who're not used to being sick, so they just do not understand what's happening.

"I'm feeling funny."

"Funny how?"

"I don't kno-" *proceeds to pass out*

Even better if they're avoiding being fussed over like the plague! But damn they need it because they have no idea how to look after themselves.

This definitely works for Cyno! Though it wouldn't fit in my current modern au, because unfortunately for him I've made poor Cyno very used to being sick there. So if I were to write this for Cyno, it'd have to be super far back in the past, or part of a different au!

But but but, here me out. Sethos. This could be a brilliant introductory fic for him into my modern au. Since he hasn't appeared yet, he's the perfect candidate for the "has no experience with being sick" trope.

But that's just an idea! I absolutely love all of this, and I'd be equally happy to write this for a different version of Cyno as well!

If you want to, anon, you can request for this to be written during Sicktember! My requests are closing in a couple of days on the 1st of August so I can start pre-writing, so if you want to request, now is the time to do it!!

Thank you so much again for all the kind words! And of course, rest in peace to the poor ice cream that melted during the writing of this ask

[hellonerf]

how do u think the allies + axis (including cana, roma, and prussia) would all separately personally torture ame ? :3c

ive noticed u r going through ame torture withdrawal so a torture ame ask u will get!!!!!

it doesn't have to be all of them but i think this is a fun question to think about whenever u r in a multishippy mood.

hiii thank you anon i will try. i've mentioned before my fav ame torchur stuff is when he's prevented from breathing and also talking, in general any way that rly rips his usual charisma and self image off. so thats my personal fav for cana because i don't know it's just funny right. like cana strangling the shit out of ame. poetic even. suited for a cana fit of rage which iii likeeee 🤒 and honestly anything works cause i luv caname and i luv ame torture so putting them together is always harmonic to me im happy ❤️ cana could drown ame or inflict blunt force trauma on ame or dismember ame and it's all good to me. see my yandere rant about how i think cana would do... or if i didn't get into that

england to ame. um. incapacitating stuff i think. it could be healing for england's psyche(?questionable). saw a (jp)comic once where ame as a child asked england if he'd still care for him if he was a human(rough machine translation) and england was like yeah and ame was like england...!!!❤️ and england pondered that he'd probably have to amputate all his limbs in that scenario(??? rough machine translation) so that's basically it. yeah. or any incapacitation works for him i think if he's like ohhh nooo i don't want to amputate my dear america thats messed up. thats kind of gross. i'll drug him up or something idontknow

rusia blunt force trauma i think. obvious reasons. in my head he's tamer here because im stupid. in general it'd feel more interrogation tactics kind of torture no? like... you know... (hits you with a pipe)(hits you with a pipe) really it's instinctual for him at this point. oohmmmggg america took more hits than usual before passing out... i think if he tortures ame too much and ame starts screaming horribly he'd be grossed out. 🤒 like that post by evilvillain i fucking forgot... (your scream is kind of shrill... almost effeminate... and it kinda grosses me out...) thats him

i ran out of thoughts for the others i'm not as invested in ame torture in them. oh maybe japan would fuck with it. yeah of course he would. slicing ame open would bring him joy i think. sharp wounds 🤧 okayyyy i'm out of thoughts i'm not fully awake rn gomenasorry okay thanks anon again. one of these days i'm going to really draw shit

[warrmonger]

regarding that idea you had of hojo trying to fuse scar snd heid into one singular boss, while the scenario is unlikely, it HAS potential. we don't see what happens to reeve after he's arrested leading to the raid on midgar, so what if hojo intended to trap and include him too? but in the chaos of things/hojo possibly prioritizng scar and heid avalanche is only able to save reeve. but you could use that to explore reeve's relationships with the pair and add in him living after they died/"died"

(( AW MAN, ANON - HAVE I GOT SOME HEAD WAFFLES FOR YOU

my little crackpot theory is a dumb lil thing i like to play with the idea at times (scar/heid being turned into monsters) just because i feel like it'd fit some of the themes of shinra, them, and hojo. the iconography of the proud clod in the og (i always thought of it as heid being the defensive mechanisms and scar controlling the cannons etc) just makes me lowkey love the idea of hojo getting trigger happy and deciding to experiment on his colleagues unbeknownst to them as well as himself. as you say, with reeve being locked up - he'd be the one who'd get away from the nightmare which makes a lot of sense when we think about reeve being the 'good' one of the bunch. ( the others being punished for their sins / self-indulgence while good boy reeve is ironically saved by them by being locked up lol ).

BUT MAN, THAT LAST BIT, ANON-

i actually have a verse written up in which heidegger survives the final face off with avalanche ( as does scar ) and i have him sort of wondering the world as this dishevelled, bitter man who is a shadow of his former self. still clinging to the glory days while holding onto the wounds of what's happened to him. not just SEEING his own mistakes but having LIVED them and SURVIVED them. it's a semi-bleak verse. i write it with the idea of like, his family has abandoned him. he's essentially a war criminal ( i mean, he is ). there's no shinra, no power, no respect, anymore. he is literally like a ghost in this verse.

i wrote it a lot with a lovely, brilliant rper ( lottie, my love ) who wrote scar as being much in the same boat. i've also written it alongside sephy ( who writes the wonderful mateo ) - exploring whether a man like heid could be forgiven, and hell, if he even WANTS it. it's a wonderful verse to explore and seeing reeve/heid in this verse would be like...a dream, honestly haha

( i can't speak for reeve because i've never written him, but i love his character a great deal. i feel reeve really is the forgiving type. and i think he'd probably, unfortunately, forgive heidegger. the SAUSAGE-! ) ))

[anxiously-sidequesting]

[Ambrose (derogatory)] anon here (rofl I'm glad you liked that)

I think it's also up to interpretation a bit how old YW is. I mean it's assumed (because of the target demographic) they're like elementary/middle school age ofc. But at Merle's age anything under 50 could be 'young' imo (and they have to call them something, so 🤷).

Do I think YW is in their mid-40s? Probably not lol but they could at least be a young adult (unless there's some canon confirmation I'm forgetting. Which I totally could be XD)

Are there some more capable adults he could get to help? Probably. But that actually leads me to another Thought which is the book of secrets. Clearly it says something about YW being destined to save the spiral yada yada so maybe by default Ambrose trusts and relies on them even when they're not the best equipped - but maybe that's literally WHY the book of secrets says that, because it knows he's gonna put all his eggs in one basket and not bother to get support from anyone else. So it ends up that. Yeah. YW is the one who goes through all this. Thanks for the trauma bro /j

Anyway I do like the idea of the protagonist jumping in and wanting to be the hero (and also being ready to throw down with anybody) because I feel like it fits with the generally helpful but also somewhat chaotic and morally dubious image they've cultivated over their journey. If Ambrose seemed less like he didn't give a fuck (not just about YW but all death students, etc) it'd be a much better dynamic

but we were robbed

(here's hoping some fic writer revamps his character to the wise and supportive headmaster the students deserve)

FIRST OFF YAY IM GLAD I DIDNT SCARE YOU OFF

And that's definitely a good point with how the Wizard's age comes into play! I think the most heinous thing that stands out about canon is that the Wizard is assumed to be a child - probably because the game is geared towards younger kids and most of the fandom by that time WERE young kids, AND the Wizard was essentially supposed to be YOU or an insert that represented you. Also even canon, up until arc 2 or 3, even comments on how young the Wizard is constantly. So it's the fact that an adult person is taking advantage of and using a CHILD and putting them in dangerous situations. For the greater good? Yeah!!! But that's still a little kid. That's the part that kinda stands out when it comes to Ambrose's treatment of the Wizard. A child has no autonomy in a situation when pitted against an adult, a child doesn't know any better to realize what's happening, the child isn't mature enough to have the words or know the actions to stand up for themselves. Combined with the fact that the child is in an unfamiliar place with an unfamiliar stranger telling them to do things, the child is the completely vulnerable party in this scenario.

If the Wizard was a young adult by the time they were recruited by Ambrose, most of that would be gone. There would still be a power imbalance (Ambrose being the Headmaster and unofficial mentor of the Wizard, who has power and influence over the City guard vs. the Wizard who is just an apprentice with no societal standing or knowledge of the aspiral yet) but AT LEAST an adult would (hopefully) be better equipped to handle themselves. An adult would most likely recognize what's really going on, what the situation is, and is able to rationalize and plan accordingly.

AND YEAH GOOD QUESTION ABOUT THE OTHER CAPABLE ADULTS because yes. Yes there are. There are infinite other choices Ambrose could have chosen before the Young Wizard. At least, for a lot of other issues that don't include saving the Spiral. Like you said Ambrose likes putting all his eggs in a basket and if he can kill multiple birds with one stone, he will. Since the Wizard is already here and the BOS said they were the chosen savior, there's no need to worry about the Other Guys!

Although imo the only way this eager Wizard AU could work in Ambrose's favor if he was like, actually shown to care about the Young Wizard's wellbeing despite his inability to help. It wouldn't be enough for Ambrose to just sit back and do nothing even in his old age when The Wizard is still essentially in danger (despite being eager to put themselves in that position in the first place), I would actually have to see Ambrose take whatever action he could in order for this dynamic to feel more equal and wholesome. Does Ambrose send other companions to help the Wizard out? Does Ambrose sit the Wizard down and gently explain although he appreciates the help, he expects the Wizard to be careful? Does Ambrose use his position of power to help take the load off the Wizard's shoulders every now and then? Does Ambrose take time out of his day to simply have tea with the Wizard and check in on them outside of any Spiral business?

Even if Ambrose was too old to do things himself, he still could do other things to make sure the Wizard was safe, especially if the Wizard was exhibiting some self-destructive behavior. It isn't enough that he's just too old; taking actions to ensure the Wizard's safety and little acts of service that ensures the Wizard KNOWS that they are cared for and loved - THAT'S my ideal Ambrose and Wizard relationship. A bond that feels true and a relationship that's equal where it's less "old man uses child" and "two partners who are in this together". The last part of your ask PERFECTLY captures this that Ambrose needs to SHOW his love and care and protection for the Wizard, not just to say it every once in a while. This is a genius ask and a genius AU you've come up with anon

[randomfoxehs-belly]

Okay I really like the races of Dragon Quest X so I kinda wanna use them for the dragon quest themed ideas I've had bouncing around in my brain lately.

that just feels like a nice fit >3> for dragon quest brain lol just add humans and some forest furries basically

just thinking of like a good World Map to use for it basically kinda tempted to just yoink the Unicorn Overlord map lol

Humans are in the lush middle mostly, dwarves in the mountainous biome to the southeast, the south west is the lush forest furry joint, the Wetlings which are the Zora fish people basically would be aquatic based so they'd mostly have visitable colonies on the coasts, the separated off island in the west there is the elf land, and then probably the smol bullyable boys in the north because they're the only ones with natural fur

there that's a representation of the Race line up I'm imagining lol humans, merpeople, elves, popplins, dwarves, and furries

Kinda liking how the world is settling into place in my imagination now

that map seems like it works a lot better than I even initially thought lol

those little islandettes in the middle there are like the perfect "trading zone" midway point for an aquatic species to come up to the land to interact with the dryland folk, where their "actual" kingdom is entirely underwater.

that actually fucking works super good I'm happy with it >3>

in the game it's the world tree that makes the luminary and as I thought up before the species of furries would be foresty boys

could be there's a world tree that's like got the hollow earth on the inside, and that's where the preds all are uwu

it's hard to put the framework that has been crafted in my mind into words x3

cuz a lot of dragon quest games have like the realm of the specials basically x3 angels, really so that's what it'd be for the preds 👀 preds are in the tree and they had to send one of them out into the world because of hero reasons

Cuz the hero in DQ4 and 5 are descendants of angels And probably DQ6 too I dunno that game is weird DQ9 Hero is just straight up an angel And then DQ11 is the chosen tree boy So the idea I was having last night was foxeh eating his friend for the first time and everyone's like " =x well it's been a long time coming I guess. Coulda been worse! Go home and talk to your mom." And then revealing that they found him in a little basket Moses in the reeds style and along with him were two letters from his birth mother One of which was for whoever found him explaining he was a pred but pls be nice And the other one was for him explaining he's gotta go adventuring And also talking about the whole eating his friend thing and them not knowing what's gonna happen with that lol "well worst case scenario at least you two are gonna be together forever now, you were practically joined at the hip as it was anyway " Flashbacks to the townsfolk having passionate town hall debates about taking in a predator babe But after like a decade and a half including times where he fought off monster incursions they're all like eh he's cool it'll probably be fine lol "maybe he'll be a big bad pred but at least he's our pred"

Letters being like "I can't explain anything just trust me bro" lol

Having the preds being in the world tree, so the furry forest clans are closer to them for both good and for bad

Like the scary boogyman bedtime stories about preds stealing people away in the night originate from the forest furries xD And those got exchanged to others via visitors and traders and ect and that's how the limited awareness of preds got spread around Maybe there even being some lore about how it used to be preds snacking on preyboys in the forest was a mutual thing cuz balance of nature and all that, but over time things just started going bad maybe animosity started brewing maybe preds were overeating and throwing things outta wack, so they just dipped out into the tree Undertale style. The truth is shrouded in myth =o So the first time he'd run into forest furries they'd be like " O_o " moreso than any other culture lol

leaning mostly on the world and lore stuff from DQ4 and 5 tbh lol while using the plot of 11 xD

Dangantober asks

So, you may or may not have seen, I've been posting Dangaronpa Ghost Photos as a daily october drawing and writing challenge

This is just a collection of asks about them, and I'll be posting a little breakdown of my thought process behind each character tomorrow

But first, the most pressing question:

I'm afraid not, it's just gonna be THH and SDR2 but I do appreciate the enthusiasm👍! I'll be honest, I kinda ran dry on the ideas front. It might be different if I'd planned it all out in advance, but since v3 isn't a direct sequel, it doesn't slot in as neatly with the prev 2 games. I'd have had to do a lot more juggling to fit it in and I hate to admit it, but I was already starting to repeat myself a little bit. There's always next year tho perhaps...

Rest of the asks below!

oho! (referencing Chiaki's photo) you certainly did see what I did there It was honestly a toss up between that, and sonic.exe which would have been HILARIOUS. (also not sure if anyone caught the ref to one of my fave youtubers)

Fair point, Well we know what happens when you break ALL of them, But if you break a few all at once I think it'd the first option. They won't come for you at the exact same time though, the haunts cascade, one after the other depending on when you broke the rule, and how fast the ghost haunts you.

I did try to make most of the rules things that'd probably get you in trouble anyway if you were caught, but there's gonna be that one unlucky fecker who accidentally throws a new pen away and gets their ass ghost stalked by Nagito, no idea of what's going on.

@cat0901h3 Originally I was going to include a bit with Makoto as the headteacher The idea was that Junko lured you into the headteacher's office to kill you THERE, essentially framing Makoto, and starting up her whole campaign of despair again. I decided to leave it more ambiguous instead like the ending of THH, and have Junko be your unreliable narrator instead

Course this au crumbles a little if you look too hard since the sdr2 lot are actually dead and not in a simulation (and I did not plan this lol) I like to think of it like a Battle Royale situation. Junko set up the killing games but it never got outside Hope's Peak, it was kept under wraps. there wasn't an actual apocalypse.

In this scenario I do see Makoto as the headteacher, he'd probably know about the hauntings, hence why there are school policies in place that match the 'rules', I figure Hiro helps out a fair bunch working out the haunting parameters, they're trying to help their friends rest in peace.

thanks so much! super glad you like! Working fast was what I was most known for in school lol, it helps if I've got a solid visual in mind, otherwise I can meander with the best of them.

AHH?? THANkS SO MUCH! I'm so pleased folk liked them! I've gotta admit when I started I was like 'ha ha this'll be a laugh' and halfway through it was very much 'WRITING IS HARD' Lord, pour one out to the fanfic authors, I cannot do what they do!

Thanks so much! it really makes my day to see folk waiting for the next one :) Hope celeste lived up to your expectations ;)

Sorry for leaving these too late to answer! I didn't want to stop and answer in between the dangantober posts in case I lost momentum But I wanted to acknowledge it, I'm pleased I sparked your interest! :)

[EDIT this ask came literally as I pushed post]

@emberz7 AH!! Thanks so so much! I'm blown away to hear that folk were actually spooked! A little creepy vibe was definitely was I was going for I think I like Chiaki's picture the most, I just really like how it came out with the screenshot vibe. In terms of story, honestly Sayaka's it was the one that inspired me to start the whole thing, and at the beginning it was the only one I had! I think it's also the most robust in terms of flow, it feels like an actual ghost story someone might tell.

Also, I see you, you absolute GEMS who reblogged each one?? and left tags??? you don't know how much that means to me

not gonna lie that's a big reason why I didn't run out of steam sooner <3

[abysscronica]

Hi!

I just caught up with your recent Bonds chapter and am loving that’s it’s picking up so fast. Absolutely can’t wait to see how this goes!!

The very first chapter did make me slightly curious about something tho, and trigger warning just in case since this is a really sensitive topic: —if birdie had for whatever reason killed herself later after re-joining the marines, how do you think Kid or the marines would react? Not necessarily just because of the capture, but also just the general mess of not fitting in, losing Aokiji, then Kid, and all the trauma, etc.

I imagine Kid would be shocked, but do you think he’d blame himself/feel regret or get angry at the marines?

For marines, I think they’d all assume it was due to the captivity? Or do you think it’d be enough to recognize that their system/structure/methods need to change? Other than like Smoker and Coby, anyway. Because one thing I always found intriguing in your stories was that birdie was straight up abandoned by her comrades (when pirates were willing to jump in to save her during the fishmen attack after only knowing her for a couple weeks), and Coby was the only one who cared enough to try and save her. It makes the marines look really scummy, and there has to be many many others just like her that the marine structure has tossed aside like trash

Thank you so much! I'm happy you like the pacing. Killer was originally supposed to appear in the third chapter but I decided to include the scene in the second one, I know everyone is missing the Kid Pirates (including me ❤️).

Let's now get to your scenario, although a premise is in order: killing herself for these reasons would be OOC for birdie. She did show suicidal thoughts at the beginning of Captive, but that was on the perspective of being tortured and murdered with no way out, and even then she backed down. Call it strength or cowardice, but she wouldn't kill herself out of her losses.

Anyway, for speculation's sake, let's say she does, after re-joining the Marines. The bitter truth is that Kid would probably never know, unless he ran into a vengeful Koby or something. After all, it's not like the Marines would publish a notice or anything. Even if at some point Kid decided to look for her for any reason, it's difficult that he would actually find out the truth about what happened. In case he did, he'd be filled with murderous intent. First against the Marines, then himself. Especially after losing Victoria in the past, it'd be devastating for him to lose another love interest to the powers of the world. I see him becoming much wilder and merciless, especially against Marines and the WG, although it'd partly be to redirect the hatred he feels against himself.

As for the Marines, sadly I don't think birdie's suicide would shake anything. I would be surprised if she were the first, I don't think they care too much. Like you said, there must be many more the organisation tossed away. Some people would be traumatized and probably have a strong reaction, sure: Koby, Tashigi, Helmeppo... But what would they do? Overall, birdie's departure would be ruled out as a personal tragedy, a girl who had one too many traumas and wasn't able to cope with this strong world. You know who's the only one that may really do something? Aokiji. At some point, he may look for Sakazuki and present the bill. Although he knows he has a big share of fault by himself.

We Got Reincarnated into an Otome Game While Keeping All Our Stats LOL - SoraMafuUraSaka

another one because it's late and I think I'm very funny!

this isn't exactly a song I want in the game, it's more like, I just think it'd be really funny to see them singing it together, also the little dialogues are what ties it all up together for me kdkskdksksk

• song link // link to the translation I used (thanks Rie for the awesome translation!)

some notes: when I first thought of this I was like "imagine Fantasista Squad singing this LMAO" bur then a specific line made me want to include Mizuki, a lot, I needed them there, after some little rearrangements I ended up leaving Toya out (unfortunately) but also I just think the characters that stayed are really fitting + White Knights trio (and Rui)

[i don't mean this as hate to you, and i'm sorry if it feels as such, this is not my intention]

so you're saying that people should not be able to kill characters just because you personally don't want that option and its outcomes? should we really go back to class story plot armor bullshit when BW removed the option to kill malavai and beta players bitched about this bc he was the only healer comp? i don't think so. it was blatantly stupid.

almost every kill option is justified. it'd be hella weird if a dark v sith couldn't kill a person who crossed them or a person who know something and might let others know. it's like not giving a light sided character an option *not* to kill someone even if the person was redeemable/didn't deserve it/etc etc.

class companions not being involved at all is another story, and i agree wholeheartedly that it's dumb not to include them, especially since about ¾ are unkillable atm. there are some loved ones that almost everyone would love to see. or at least not very hated ones. i'm not even asking for all comps to be involved, that'd take a long time and might cause some backlash (because honestly, i think everything about this game causes some degree of backlash)

i think the devs currently don't have good resources and that's why the latest expansion was so... underwhelming. maybe even last several expansions. story problems are also probably a result of that.

sorry for the long rant, just wanted to express some thoughts

No. That's the opposite of what I'm saying. Players can kill everyone they like. I don't care. I just don't like their decisions making it impossible for me to enjoy the characters I kept alive. That's currently the case, because the game company is catering to they who slay, not me.

At the moment, SWTOR writers assume everyone who can be killed is dead. They are, as I said in the original post "playing to the most basic, barebones, lifeless possibility in the game." And they're writing around that presumption. They literally don't have enough characters still alive to carry the story.

What I'm saying is that the writers should create content that involves potentially dead characters, i.e., Theron, the Tiralls, Koth, people from Vanilla that are a kill choice, etc. If they fit the scenario, they should be written into it. If a player has chosen previously that critical characters are dead, then maybe they don't get "the full experience" of content compared to someone who did let those characters live.

Example: Me personally, I kill Vinn Atrius on every playthrough. Let's imagine that SWTOR decides to do a whole side quest about Vinn. I don't get that quest because I killed him. Instead I either get nothing or I get a quest about the fact I killed Vinn and now I have to deal with the grieving wife/husband/child/bantha/whatever who wants an explanation from me.

Example: People who dumped/exiled Theron after Nathema but let him live get the option to hook back up with him again. They and people who continued their relationship with him get a dating sim a few extra scenes between partners that move the overall story forward. They who killed Theron get nothing because, well, he's dead.

If you have a game that advertises that 'decisions have consequences', then guess what? Decisions should have consequences, like having some content locked out to them. Think of other Bioware games where, if you make a decision, certain people leave your party permanently. You don't get the spiffy content about that character if you made them leave.

Should SWTOR try to put out content with a range of characters to improve chances that everyone gets a little content? Sure. But if someone killed everyone, then they have to live with the consequences of that empty ship/war room.

Contests Part 2/2

6. Loser Jessie

Screechy harpie Jessay has even more of a raw deal than Mavis and Dawn of the Dead.

From the outset I knew she'd never be champion, but she ought to rise above the tiresome berks clogging up procedure.

Sufficient popularity at Pokémon Towers ensured the girls were allotted coverage of all their award ceremonies. They had a moment in the sun.

What has Jessie in comparison?

I can't recall Hoenn, but I don't expect it was much.

Sinnoh however carried naught but a single paltry episode.

This for a main character.

This for someone there from the beginning.

This for an ardent fan favourite.

This for a wench who, should we include all her various mutations, has featured in more installments than either of 'em.

But no, treat Jesseee as worthless, even lower than Dawn's groupies. It's not like anyone watches it for her.

Looking back, it's obvious what they were intending to do come Unova.

What's the score then?

• One paltry Contest on screen.

• A couple happen elsewhere, marked by a few seconds per mention when the script oh-so generously moves away from the thrilling main plot.

It's gotta be the small-town concerns for Jessuhleenuh, nothing major. She deserves no better.

• One won by James, so not hers. Press her inadequacy upon us!

• One obtained as a gesture of pity from Kate Middleton.

And how did that work? What's the good of allowing 'Dawn' entry again?

She'd already qualified. If winning here, that gives her six, therefore there aren't enough Co-ordinators for the culmination.

And when Jessie showed up with a Ribbon recorded as belonging to Dawn, how was she taken as fulfilling the quota?

The slapdash way these Contests are run!

God forbid Jess should be shown as excelling at anything. It must be scraping into the final undeservedly.

Bitch gotta know her place.

7. Bumpkin Jessie

...

Ain't no description I can give that don't rhyme with 'hit', or variations of the theme.

You thought the shafting Jessica got coverage wise was bad enough? Yer ain't heard the 'alf of it.

Sinnoh was a period of peak Moron Team Rocket, where the one surprise was how stupid they could be.

You may remember an early episode when James designed her clothes for the catwalk. She thought it'd complement his work by applying lipstick all across her mug.

Obviously Jessie would do that, clueless as to how make-up functions.

Come on kids, she's thick!

Even at that numskull nadir it's difficult to comprehend anyone choosing this get up without severe duress.

Picture the scene: you debut on stage, before an audience of thousands and television cameras, in an event preoccupied with superficiality.

What do you wear?

• Giant, oversized glasses out of fashion since the Seventies.

• Bootlace tie last worn in the nineteenth century Wild West by a barman serving sarsaparillas.

• Colour scheme of brown and orange, the nation's favourite hues.

• A man's old shirt fraying at the cuffs.

• Voluminous apron dress.

• Massive yellow bows last seen decorating an Easter Egg. Always a winner.

• Heavy, clod-hopping boots.

• PIGTAILS!!!

Even the name is unattractive.

Ah yes, very common for those under six. Unheard of later.

You have reached puberty haven't yer Jessie? I can't tell anymore.

They couldn't get enough of that combination in Cosmo, which is why it's no longer in print.

Not only is Jessie denied success, she's deprived of the chance to be pretty in a realm where nothing but that carries weight.

Worse, given how her face disintegrated, this is the best she's been for five generations.

Yeah, because the inbred milkmaid style is such a good look, eh?

SEXAY!!!

8. So Long, Tsundere

Remember tsunderes? What happened to 'em?

The curse of Pokémon was draining the well of inspiration too quickly, throwing away interesting characters as mere guests.

This is particularly noticeable regarding the ladies. Back then, we got Misty, Jessie, Jessibelle, Cassidy, Aya, Giselle, Tyra, Sabrina, assorted crones Brutella, Nastina and Lacy, plus Joy, Jenny and Dame Ketchum provided parental authority.

How did a series that began with ball-breaking birds like that end up with insipid, glassy-eyed dullards like Zuhreena, Banana Lana, Marsh Mallow and Lilliput?

Ooh, Zuhreena is a pwincess!

Ooh, Banana Lana bwows big bwubbles!

Ooh, Marsh Mallow wuvs phallic waddishes!

Ooh, Lilliput won't pwet wanimals bwecause of Secwet Pain!

Can you imagine such weak specimens finding any place in the anarchic atmosphere of the classics?

It's SO boring!

Where's the punch? Where's the human spirit?

Where's the entertainment gone?

This squishy attitude began in Hoenn. Misty left, Jessie's hair symbolically changed from volcanic red to pink, and Contests introduced a cuddly theme where glitter glue and sequins are top priority.

Every sharp corner, every jagged point has been filed smooth. Now its substance hasn't the hardness to even develop edges, not when it's all cushions and candyfloss, where catching Pokémon rests on them deigning to grant permission, rather than 'avin it out.

Tsunderes, exuding untamed charisma and independence, besides a soupçon of danger, simply don't fit the cardboard box we habit now.

Nor do yanderes, kuuderes, tsuntsuns, or even derederes. It's just nothing but smiley-smiley creeps.

I wouldn't mind any of these tropes as long as there was some sign of colour to be had.

9. The Sacrifice of Misty

Misty bid farewell under the feeble justification that the lack of a longterm goal made her vulnerable to sacking.

Such a line uttered as if her own choice, being beyond them as writers to invent a purpose.

This implied her replacement would have an exciting quest aiming for excellence, something just beyond Misty's capabilities.

What did we get?

Dressing up and collecting Ribbons!

Is that...is that it? Is that the great idea? Is that all the girls are worth?

I lost Misty for THIS?!

Perhaps it makes no difference. By Hoenn they'd rendered her a leaden blandness sucked dry of all that made her special.

Going by the greasy-toothed bastardisation that swanned up in Alola, Misty was simply too wild for the safe, stifling atmosphere of today.

Her departure ensued she remains frozen as a funny, beloved presence, unlike those she left behind.

Now there was a lucky escape, as once the fanny-flapping starts, the bints have it on the brain.

May had Max to beat on the side, but Dawn developed monomania.

Hardly an episode went by without some reference to Contests, or how today's plot spurred her on to the next opportunity.

Yer need help, love!

Rather than Ash's new friend being a fascinating person who so happened to enter vanity projects, the competition defined them to the exclusion of life.

It is but moths drawn to the candle flame waiting to engulf them.

Contests are this world's version of Tom Riddle's diary: they promise sympathy and validation, but they eat your soul.

Like Tumblr.

10. Completely Unoriginal

Seems to me it wasn't so much Misty had no goal, it was more that Contests were the supposedly hot concept wedged into an existing property.

If earlier aspects failed to accommodate the invader, the onus certainly wasn't on the new kid to change. Oh no, stuff it in and chop off whatever gets in the way.

In the eyes of the post-Shudo regime, Misty was too volatile to last, and so had to go.

What idiots.

She's a tsundere. The softer, more feminine side is a defining component.

Would it really have been so problematic to retain her as an entrant? If Jessie can, why not?

Even if failing to fit, so what? Since when was established characterisation a barrier?

Isn't twisting likeable folk into unrecognisable pods the modus operandi of the writers?

That canon is immaterial, and must always give in to whatever fancy they currently have?

Well then, what's the big deal in infantilising Misty to promote it rather than pensioning her off?

Viewers will be more invested in the challenges awaiting a familiar face rather than a stranger.

What reduces the above to the risible is the original Misty and Jessie both participated in the Princess Festival.

All Contests are is that very scenario on repeat and robbed of all meaning.

Think about it:

• Beauty round

• Battle round

• Jessie loses

Same bloody thing.

Not only have I got to suffer this draining spectacle, it's got the nerve to possess not one iota of fresh ideas!

Contests are a low rent rip-off. The Princess Festival had a worthy reward in the shape of one-of-a-kind Dolls.

It'd already been revealed that ordinary Princess Dolls were ruinously expensive, therefore the special Pokémon edition have to be priceless.

What d'yer get for the trouble of a Contest but a bit of plastic tat taped to bargain basement frippery?

And they demand you get five of 'em!

Contests themselves were then resurrected as Showcases, although mercifully slimmed down to only three, with the emptiness ramped up in compensation.

Perhaps ironically, Princess Versus Princess is one of my favourite episodes. I love its critique of female avarice and accurate portrayal of clothing sales as reminiscent of the zombie apocalypse.

I don't mind the Festival as a single adventure, but I may have felt less favourable had it been a constant presence.

Except it isn't the competition at stake. This is a framework to explore Jessie and Misty as people.

Through its device we learn their history and therefore how they came to develop as the girls we know.

The setting serves as an opportunity for both to confront the misery and isolation of their childhoods, with the promise of overcoming that old torment with the balm of victory.

In the final, they aren't so much battling an opponent as fighting to be free of the past.

The tragedy is only one can be granted that reprieve. The other must remain unhappy in the ruins of memory.

It matters, unlike vapid Contests, where posturing is king. What depth can they provide in comparison?

Despite identical content, they are inverse counterparts, with the Festival presented as merely a light affair concealing a rather dark tale of neglect.

Contests however are paraded as this worthy nourishment for body and mind, a major point in one's journey towards enlightenment, when all they really amount to is an organ grinder and his monkey arsing about for the slack-gobbed plebs.

Bread and circuses.

Best of all, Misty won, not some side twat, as it should be.

Note how Jessie dressed: in delicate, vivid robes and golden decoration. The boys thought her beautiful.

Not as a gormless dweeb you'd cross the street to avoid!

And why the need to disguise herself anyway?

The Twerps had no issue with Jessie of Team Rocket joining the fun back then, so what happened?

At least she received the consolation of gaining Lickitung as a friend, with James and Meowth desperate to comfort her.

What do Contests bring? Sod all!
